National Registration ; ‘National Registration will take place from Aug- : ust the 19th., to August the 21st., during which time every Canadian citizen and every resident in Canada ~ between the ages of 16 ‘and 65 will be required to reg- ister in compliance with the Defence of Canada Reg- ulations. ; ; F A comprehensive questionnaire requires the an- swers to 18 questions from men and 20 from women, and covers age, marital status, nationality, education, ‘employment and special qualifications. An identificat- jon card, which must be carried on the person at all times, will be given to each registree and non-possess. jon of this identification card will carry a severe pen- alty. This is a gigantie task, one of registering some 7,000,000 people in three days. It will require the co- operaton of the populace and the tact and efficiency of the registrars. White Rock’s own registration problem is a per- euliar one. Ordinarily our population is around 2000 with 901 names on the voters’ list, Add to this some 300 boys and girls between 16 and 21 and at least 9500 visitor from as for Bast as Prince Edward Island, numbers of Prairie, visitors and all sorts of city folks, and the task of a deputy registrar will not be a bed of roses. It iscommonly estimated that it will take 15 minutes on an average to fill out one of the tion forms. Approximately 3800 people to be register- ed will require 950 hours, or about 100 working days for one person. But this work must be done in 3 days. May we suggest that all persons be as co-opera- tive as possible and study a registration form before hand so that questions may be answered in a minimum of time. Tell your neighbors and emphasize to them the importance of their registering as soon and ascarly possible. This is simply part of your individual war effort but it is an important part. A Hallowe'en Party? For the past two years the Legion in co-operation with othe” local organizations, has sponsored a Hallowe'en Party. Consid- able success rewarded the effort. Beeause Canada is now actively engaged in a fight for world liberty, the public has had many worthy appeals for money, urgently needed for the pursuit of war work. Conse- quently the Legion feels that the public should be permitted to express an opinion as to whether the Hallowe'en Party shall be held this year, or suspended, ‘Due to the successes of the past, the Legion is lothe to pend this year's party, firmly belviving such affairs to be in best interests of public morale. At the same time a sense FO pts the Legion to make this appeal for an if opinion on this matter.
