REGISTERING IN
 CANADA FOR
 NATIONAL WORK

On June 18th, there were thousands upon thousands of women between the ages of 16 and 60 who registered for National Service in Canada More than likely sooner or later, the Can- adian government will start drafting these women for positions which must be filled while the man-power of the country is surely and swiftly being weakened by the increasing demands oi war
 Persons not complying with the reg ulations were liable to fine and i'm pr.sonment, and in case of strangers in the country, were liable to be re- fused food and permission to travel without the card showing that the owner had registered.
 In filling out short questionnaire fine registrars obtain an index of the registrants's qualifications for practi- cal work, either agricultural or cleri cal and as to willingness and ability to devote all time to work for the country, and whether or not the reg istrant is able to leave home to work
 in other parts.
 The principal causes for the Nat ional Service Act at this time were primarily to make use of all the workers in the country and secondar- lily to assist the rancrehs and farm. CTS as well as the employers of the cities. Ranchers seem to be expert encing the greatest difficulties with the laboring proposition and to coun- ter-act this boys from 10 years up have organized into what is known as the s. o. s. or Soldiers of the Soil and can be obtained by ranchers in any number to assist in the lighter work on the farms and are considered quite a success. Old men from the Homes for Old Men are placed in charge of fiocks of sheep together with an s. 0. s. or two and are said to manage very well, but strong and healthy young women with knowledge Of agricul- ture, machinery, farm life will be in great demand. In order to ascertain how many were available the Govern ment announced that registration would be the means.
