Where does the money come from to wage this War—to build

‘the ships, the planes and tanks we need to “finish the job)”

Much of it comes from the savings of ordinary men and
women—the thrifty people of Canada—the savers. These are
the people who buy Victory Bonds and War Savings Certificates,
who pay their War Taxes on the nail. Never before has
personal thrift been so vitally necessary. Watch your spending.
Every dollar you can spare is
needed now to arm and equip
our fighting forces—to win this
War.

SCHOOL SITE

Editor, A. S. & M. News,

Sir: On- two occasions there has
been statements made in your pa-
per regarding the purchase of the
old Methodist Church lot at Mats-
qui as a new school site. These
statements I consider misleading.
I offered the lot free of charge
for a school, providing the build-
ing be moved to another of my
properties. I never withdrew this
offer and I have never received a
cent from the community or any-
one else for this property. Due to
moving difficulties I accepted an
offer to permit the building to be
Moved to a less satisfactory lo-
cation,

Some years ago a charge of $400
in taxes was made against this
church property by the munici-
Pality for the Matsqui cement
walk. I bought it as tax sale prop-
erty to keep the church from go-
ing out of existence. However, a
congregation was never again es-
tablished. In the meantime I re-
shingled the church at a cost of
$100 and paid taxes and insurance
and other incidentals making the
total cost over $600, without any
charges for interest.

I purchased this property in the
first place for sentimental reasons
and I now give it for sentimental
reasons for a school. I resent any
suggestion that money has been
paid to me.

I would appreciate if you would
give this letter q& space in your
valued paper.

(MRS.) M. HOUGEN.

Editor's Note—No
been paid to Mrs. Hougen for the
site referred to in the above Tet-
ter or for the removal of the old
church building that Occupied it.
As contained in the report of the
Advisory Board meeting Friday
night on page one of this issue, a
new site was provided and the
building moved to it and Mrs.
Hougen has donated the ola site
to the schools. The rather pro-
tracted negotiations in this matter
have been reported by The News
4S a matter of routine and, it was
believed, fairly. We are pleased to
publish Mrs. Hougen’s letter but
as an apparently satisfactory ar-
rangement has been concluded be-
tween the narties concerned, we
hope no further reference to the

money has

matter will be necessary,
