it also enables our nation to purchase adequate war supplies for its defense and that of our Empire.It was announced in Montreal over the week-end that twenty-six municipalities in the Province of Quebec were \u201cover the top\u201d in the War Weapons Drive as \u2018returns from all parts of the province began pouring into headquarters of the provincial War Savings Committee.The principal centres, including Montreal, Three Rivers, Sherbrooke and Hull will report later and Quebec City has delayed its report until Wednesday.Objectives in terms of war weapons were set for approximately 110 cities, towns and districts throughe out the province and almost 50 had reported over the week-end, with 26 reporting success and the others reporting percentages in the eigi- ties and nineties and continuing thelr drives for another few days.Municipalities now entered as having achieved their objectves, and in come cases gone well over them, included Baie Comeau, Browns- burg, Ayers Cliff, Ste.Therese, Coaticook, Huntingdon, Magog, Rock Island, Stanstead, Beebe, Thetford Mines, Valleyfield, Waterloo, Asbestos, Cowansville, Knowl- ton, Windsor Mills, East Angus, Crmstown, Bromptonville, Water- ville, Dolbeau, Shawville, Rawdon, Priceville and Richmond.In Montreal, at the iaunching of the French school war savings plan, Brig.Gen.E.de B.Panel sounded a solemn warning to the people when he declared: \u201cWe are in grave danger in Canada and we do not seem to realize the peril that menaces us.The ocean which separates us from the present theatre of war is quickly crossed by air.We must not lose sight of the fact that the distance between Newfoundland and England can be crossed by air in eight hours.The United States is well aware of this peril and has accordingly established bases in Newfoundland and Bermuda.\u201d General Panet delivered his address after Hon.F.Philippe Brais, executive chairman of the Quebec War Savings Committee, had delivered o similar warning and advised Canadians not to consider the Atlantic another Maginot Line.Behind the speakers, on the platform, throughout the meeting were representatives from the army, navy, and air force in full battle equipment.Representing the armed services, the three men also pro.| vided an illustration of the cost of training and equipping modern armies.General Panet was loudly cheered at the conclusion of his address.Feature of the program was the provision of instalment purchases of war savings stamps with payments as low as a penny at a time being accepted.NINE CARTONS OF CIGARETTES SEIZED AT HEMMINGFORD A few days ago a detachment of the ROM.P.at Hemmingford, assisted by Canadian Immigration Officers at Hemmingford port seized nine cartons of American ciparettes that had not been re- The owner of the car, Samuel bread route on the American side and the tread at Hemmingford, Que.For some time he had been suspected of smuggling American cigarettes into Canada and when he was , Corporal Cahill, of the CMP, found nine cartons of cigarettes in the car.Ballley was taken to Valleyfield where he was detained for a few days.The car, a 1931 Ford, was seized and taken to Montreal to be sold.Ballley will not be permitted to enter Canada for some time.operating a i CRITICALLY HURT WHEN AUTO STRIKES TREE AT ST.TIMOTHEE Emilien Deschamps, of Mel- ocheville, was critically injured at St.Timothee on Sunday when his automobile left the road and hit a post.According to information gathered by Det.-Sgt.R.Danis and Traffic Officer S.Anderson, Deschamps apparently lost control of his auto trying to pass another vehicle.The car took to the ditch and crashed head on into a post.\u2018 Final Tribute Paid Plane Crash Victim Many Attend Burial Service at Ormstown\u2014 Dr.M.Campbell Conducts Funeral Service Hundreds of friends, including R.C.AF.officers and a large contingent of the Montreal High School Cadets, paid tribute on;

the masters of industry today.a: least of the successful and progressive type.work in harmony with their employees.The mill managers endeavour to provide plant comforts that were unheard of only a comparatively few years ago.The mill managers do this knowing that the employees as well as themselves are spending a very considerable portion of their lives within the walls where they earn their living.Cleanliness and orderliness, {irst aid cabinets, fire protection equipment.safely devices about machinery, ete.are all provided at the expense of the employer or company.yet ail such provisions are actually for the benefit of the employee.If the provisions were not supplied by the company their overhead expenses would be reduced: if a rire occurred and their property was lost they would be protected against loss through fire insurance, but the employees would be out of employment.Companies operate for the purpose of providing pleasure in transacting business that is essential :0 the country and monetary gain for the investors as well as employees.It fol- \u2018lows then that when a company.such as our local mills, providing employment and facilities for the comfort of the employees, the one and only way they can hope io recoup themselves for such expenditures is through increased production.If, through carelessness on the part of an individual, he gets a finger injured, whether the injury be minor or serious, the plant production must suffer to some extent.Some employees are of the opinion that when they suffer an injury it means little, because they are the recipient of compensation from the Provincial Government.They forget that the mill loses production when they are off work or working with bandages about their fingers.The employees also lose sight of the fact that the employer is called upon by the Province of Quebec to make a generous contribution to the Workmen's Compensation Board each year in accordance with the amount of money paid out to wage earners.Textile mills in the United States ranked 8th place as to hazardous places of employment.This would indicate that such a piace of employment is not to be regarded as a very hazardous occupation, and if reasonable care is exercised the number of accidents sustained in textile mills can be further reduced if the employees will take heed to advice and think what they are doing.The common cause of .accidents is wiping moving parts of machinery when they are in operation.Every employer likes to see the plant machinery kept clean and in good running order, but is it not too little to expect of an employee when you suggest that he do such cleaning of moving parts when the machine is standing idle.Employers note the employees who maintain the machinery in a state of perfect running order over those who are negligent in that respect.The number one employee gets the promotions.When the day comes that one man is to be dropped from the pay-roll it is not the good man who goes but the man who is indifferent about his work.The careful and conscientious employee seldom has a self- inflicted accident.At the Defence Industries Limited they have been educating their employees on \u201cSafety First.\u201d The results of this teaching is showing up, in that the number of accidents sustained is much below the natural expectancy in such a large and hazardous industry.A day will come when textile manufacturers will be able to pick and choose the men they want to employ; the men they then choose will be the superior workmen.Train yourself to be careful when at work on the highway, and especially in your home, where more accidents occur each day than anywhere else.Surprises Never Cease O people look for entertainment, religious teaching, Christian devotion or is it even something else on Sunday evenings?This is a question that has long been confronted by our religious leaders and we believe they have come to the conclusion the public have forsaken the Sunday evening church services for entertainment whether it be in the form of moving pictures or radio programmes.Protestant churches that hold evening services have endeavoured to hold their congregations in more ways than one, hoping that Christian devotion could be credited for commendable sized congregations.On Sunday evening the Huntingdon United Church auditorium was so taxed with people that it was necessary to bring In chairs to provide seating accommodation for all.Why this wonderful church attendance of so-called Christian people?Was it that the congregation was seized with the idea that the Allies were winning a great war victory in North- ean Africa that they should go to church and express joy over thelr prayers being answer- ed?Or was it that they wanted to have their curiosity satisfied and at the same time appear as though devoutly religious?If many attended due to the latter reason, all well and good, for the service would do them no harm and might do them a lot of good and, what is more, inspire them to be more regular in their religious devotions in the future.If restoring the religious thoughts in the people of Canada can be obtained through having radio singers attend church services, and give of their talent, then radio throughout the whole of the North American continent might well be shut down each Sunday morning and evening and the radio stars be ordered to the various churches throughout the land, thereby building up large congregations of people to hear the necessary religious lessons expounded by our clergy.Today, as perhaps never before, we need such teachings and if radio stars can make such possible it would be worth more to the North American continent to perform such a service than through their rendition of programmes that are so comunercialized on Sundays.\u201cBlue Bell Bullets\u201d Here Thursday HURSDAY evening the \u201cBlue Bell Bullets\u201d an employee organization from that great publie utility, the Bell Telephone Company of Canada, are to present one of their grand entertainments in the Drill Hall of Chateauguay Barracks, Last season when this organization visited Huntingdon they presented what was undoubtedly the finest varied programme ever seen 1 Huntingdon, That this season's programme will be of cqually high standing can be taken for granted.Lt.-Col.C.C.Brooks, M.C.V.D, Officer Commanding at Chateau- guay Barracks, has accorded us permission to extend an invitation to the general public to attend this \"Blue Bell Bullet\u201d presentation on Thursday evening at 7.15 o'clock, standard time.Adulls are we comed, but children must not be taken to the Drill Hall.One more \u201cmust\u201d, and that is.you must be in the Drill Hall by 7.15 «standard time), as the shows at Chateauguay Barracks start on time and interruptions by late-comers are not appreciated.Ar Valleyfield when such entertainments are provided for the soldiers in the Drill Hall.citizens attend in large numbers.The Legion would like nothing better than to see a thousand adult people in this area accept this invitation to be present on Thursday evening.Civilians fraternizing with soldiers at such social gatherings helps to make a soldier's life more enjoyable and, of course, soldiers are a happy lot of boys and they will make you happy too when you fraternize with them.We are all human.we enjoy the company of one another.Do your part, adult Huntingdon- ians; accept this Legion invitation and free entertainment provided by the \u201cBlue Bell Bullets.\u201d Let the East Offer the Solution For the West ARMERS and citizens in general who are not of military age can perform a service to Canada and fellow citizens in a way that has perhaps never been considered.In the Canadian West, wheat crops are produced year after year that are not marketed without a tremendous expense to the Dominion of Canada.This situation will likely continue until after the war.Here in Eastern Canada there is a labor shortage, and particularly on the farms.Would it not be possible to entice some of the Westerners to come east?The east needs labor and if the west had fewer workers it would mean the west would produce less, thereby reducing the amount of expenditure the Federal Government would be called upon to provide.The Gleaner is not making this suggestion without practising what it preaches.for during the past two years and a half we have provided gainful employment for two Western families who today appreciate the east over the troublesome times and unfavourable drouth seasons that have so affected the West.A Home For the Soldiers ERE the late Mrs, James Hampson to look back at Huntingdon today, she would undoubtedly say the people of Hun- tingdon have settled upon a desirable location for a Hostel to provide home comforts for soldiers in training at Chateauguay Barracks.For many years Mrs.Hampson was the main-spring of a restaurant conducted in the basement quarters of the O'Connor building.Here the general public found Mrs.Hampson providing comforts for the general public, performing a service much needed then as well as now.The decision to utilize these quarters for the soldiers\u2019 hostel would appear to be very appropriate.True to form, the generous offer of D.J.O'Connor, M.P.P,, in offering these quarters at a very modest figure is td be acted upon and exercised.Within a few days time the people of this area will be prevailed upon to perform another war effort, and this time it will be to subscribe a little money which will be used to furnish this hostel for the soldiers.The rental and lighting expense will be taken care of by the Legion War Services.The cost of suitably equipping the quarters will most likely be done under the direction of the Legion officials, but the payment of such furnishings must be provided by the public.The services of a hostess will also be provided by the public.Having a hostel in Huntingdon, besides providing a desirable service of accomboda- tion for soldiers, should prove to be a very acceptable piece of advertising for this community's future welfare.During the past 12 months some 10,000 soldiers have received training at Chateauguay Barracks.The soldiers, particularly those from Western Canada, have been greatly taken with this farming community.Soldiers who have been favourably impressed with the Chateauguay Valley will naturally speak a good word for our district.The more good we have sung about our Chateauguay Valley the better it is for our future.The hostel may cost the citizens of the Chateauguay Valley $2,000 or so for the first year, but in future, if the war lasts longer, the expense would be less per annum.In any event a hostel will he a community service that we might well provide for the soldiers in training, who some day will be doing the actual fighting of the Hun In our behalf.When the day comes for subscriptions to be solicited, the amounts each one will be invited to subscribe will not have to be sizeable, but many provided.THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER Chronology \u201cof - Chateauguay, Beauharnois and Huntingdon Counties From Manuscripts of Pere rrr Pre Id + OPINIONS * + + + +++ OF OTHERS HERD IMPROVEMENT (The Kings County Record) A strong appeal to farmers to \u201cscrap scrub bulls\u201d was made recently at a meeting of the Canadian Jersey Breeders\u2019 Association in Saint John by the Eastern representative of that body, W.T.Hunter.Wednesday, November 26th, 1941 NIA CT RIX TT LY Ty Ad SE A AE EE A ET IX ITE EE RE EX x This Week in OTTAWA Campaign in North Africa is More Than a Localized Battle\u2014Wartime Prices and Trade Board Adds to Its Organization\u2014Recent Sale Of Wheat to Russia Raises Question of Future Exports to the Soviet Union Canada has its stake in the great | But in addition to that it has a ma- mpaign that has Jor significance in the light of Naz and fing ca tee t for a intrigues in Vichy.With Weygand open m ya.cep removed from command in French The Late ROBERT SELLAR ; RICHARD SWEET \u2014 (Continued) In 1805 he had 5 acres wheat sown lon his new lot and was working logging on it one day in June, when a fearful looking black cloud was {seen in the northwest.He and \u2018the men with him ran for shelter, when, in the rush, the oxen got abeam of that big rock (Mr.Sweet pointed to it) opposite his house, on south side of the road, when the yoke snupped, and they ran off in different ways.The men got into the shanty, and as they did the wind took off the roof, when they rushed out and fell on the ground, with the trees snapping around them.The storm passed to the southeast.When it was over, they found a track about 1\u2019: miles wide, and that everything was levelled in its course.One ox was found kil- \u2018led.A neighbor who lived here, had a cow.On returning home, he found one ox had been Killed and the cow was missing.After several days scarch they found her.She had been pinned in a hollow by a tree, and her back was worn bare by her efforts to escape.As the surviving oxen were of different sizes, they did not match.The home voke.were the big ones, A man driving a cow up the hill, had a very narrow escape.The two acres of wheat were so buried by dabris as to be lost.The calamity was so discouraging that my grandfather and his neighbors were a'most for giving up, thinking the windfall could never be cleared away.When the war broke out in 1112, the two brothers-in-law (one was, I think, Grouse! would not take the oath of allegiance to King, and left.They went back to where they came from, and I think have descendents at Parishville.Grandfather took the oath, as this certificate, signed by John Mane ning, commissioner, shows.It is dated 22nd July, 1812, I cannot siy when he died, but as my father Aaron.married in 1818, and as all had gone by then, my grandmother having married a man in Sherring- tan called Warren and moved to Rochester, I conclude de died some time before.My mother, Blackman, was born in Champlain.The first school was held in the barn of one of the brothers-in-law, , who went back to the States, and was situated on the Havelock line.The one I went to was in an old | house opposite the by-road.That | would be in 1830.The first teach- \u2018el\u2019 was Mary Ann Bosworth, the next a Miss Smith, who married one Sperry, who came for the hunting, and boarded with father.Afterwards the Robsons put up a b.ock school house on the present site.When grandfather came he brought a mare with him and I have a descendant of her still The mare was of Dutch descent, something between a roan and a sorrell, with a big white face.They have proved to be good stock.In t'iose days most of the couples had to go to Mooer's to be married, and father having the only team in the country, drove them.He took seven of the Criscarens to the minister.In April, 1824, Mr.Mer- (lin was sleeping at the Robson's, when he heard a commotion among ithe stock.Rousing the household, \u2018they went out, when they found a \u2018wolf chasing the cows and sheep | around the yard, the brute barking and snarling.Rousing the adjoining family of Robsons (Walter\u2019s) and securing a lantern, they came to my father\u2019s towards which thie wolf had ran.Hearing the noise, my father was up and went out.While they were telling him of the cause of their coming, a pig was heard squealing in our pen, and presently the wolf jumped out, holding a pig by the ear.Roger Robson fired, but the gun did not go off.Bringing it to the light in the house, they discovered the cause to be that the flint had slipped.Replacing the flint, they issued forth, and the wolf being still in the yard, gnawing the pig, Robson fired and broke the brute's leg, when it went close to the barn.Father's gun was in the barn, and slipping in, he got it and going up to the wolf fired into its breast, killing it.The wolf acted most - Get ALL the | LIGHT l You Pay IE LET GENERAL ELECTRIC CO.ORR LEAT A LI LE LET EL CL LETTS Delia ;

way.Through the persuasion of! the American Presbyterian minister, Roger Robson went to the States rather than serve in the rebellion, so that, when the company was called to volunteer with the militia battalion, his company was passed.The captains of the others went to Brisbin's house to arrange which should get the honour, when Edwards got the position and my father served as Lieutenant.Robson, however.who was a real Briton, repented having acted on the minister's advice, and came back and served as a private.I have heard the McNaughtons and McFees tell of how after the affair at Odell- town church, they were tramping around when they saw a man whom they took to be Charles McDiarmid.They called to him and he came unsuspicious of them, until near enough to see they were British, when he threw down his gun and cried he was for the Queen.A volunteer named Boyd, pointed his gun and shot the Frenchman.Roger Robson was made a J.P.The first Methodist minister came from the other side: our first Canadian minister was Hitchcock, For several years grandfather's family could have had no near neighbors.The first I ever heard mother speak of was the Fishers and Peter Mc- Gregor, who stayed with them, and whose mother, a widow.afterwards married Nichols of Hinchinbrook.McGregor died a decent farmer, near Chateauguy.Ste.Agnes Mr .and Mrs.Wm.Carriere of Village Billette spent the week-end with Mrs.Carriere's parents, Mr.and Mrs.J.B.Ouimet.Le , Æ5/Wouldn't you be shocked y pires landlord demanded «a year's rent in advance?8 Youn our rent, gas, electric and Erhone bills by he month.Buy life insurance the same way.You'll be most agreeably surprised to ind bow easy it is to enjoy ade quate protection for your fi , and à guaranteed income for your own later years\u2014if you pay for these necessities in small monthly amounts.The plan works like this : you choose any policy, but instead of giving the first year's premium in cash, you pay for just one month.At age 30, for example, on a $5,000, Double Protection Life policy you would pay just $6.15.As a service to you, the Com ch year.y will accept your post-dated one for each month of the Imagine how easil u could pa for financial security under t ;

It was too late for Bill to ; remove the donkey.A terrible \"hush fell over the crowd of young- | sters.They expected, of course, that Mr.Carlyle would explode with | anger.But, instead of that, he did something unheard of.He | burst into a roar of laughter.If| anything, this created more con-| sternation than if he had let go! with the brimstone words and: ferule.While all the school held its breath, that strange mirth rolled and reverberated through the room.Anybody who heard Carlyle give one of his rare laughs never forgot it.It began with a sort of a queer chuckling that exploded into loud and deep guffaws, shaking his whole body and revealing all his teeth like the keys of a piano.It was awful for his pupils to listen to, for as a rule they never knew what \u201cthe master\u201d

political parties in both the United States and Canada have wasted time and consequently public money in squabbling over war procedure might aptly be compared to two brothers who stand and argue as to whether they would better take Collie with them to chase the neighbour's cow out of the oatfield.The main original issue between Liberals and Conservatives was whether Free Trade or Tariffs should be adopted.By degrees the views of both have become so modified that the matter of customs duties is not the burning question it once was.Why then might we not have a coalition government, particularly in a time of stress like the present?Is it not because the lust for power and pelf is stronger than the sentiment of patriotism?But instead of the war rousing leaders to stand united, it has produced the live issue of conscription.The Hon.Arthur Meighen never hid his light under a bushel in the Senate chamber and he has been chosen by his party\u2014 a second time\u2014as the staunchest standard-bearer in sight.He will need all his undoubted courage and ability for he is faced by two enemies besides the Liberal host\u2014one, his own reserved self, the other, the wraith of that most popular leader, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, whose greatness has been acclaimed afresh in connection with the designation of his boyhood\u2019s home at St.Lin, Que., as a national historic site.- However, perhaps that merry- faced boy, whose picture has ap- | peared in the press, has made Grandpa Meighen a somewhat better mixer than he used to be thought.I have seen such a conversion wrought by a wee boy before now.But before any decisive action takes place between our two principal parties, who knows but that the Liberals may steal the Conservatives\u2019 thunder re the conscription issue as they did on the question of tariffs and adopt a policy of selective compulsory service?A lady of my acquaintance persists in speaking of it as \u201ccollective conscription\u201d, evidently confusing it

the thing to do is to have the men at the front drive the Hitlerites over here.But jests die on the lip as the name of Hong-Kong rings in the ear more like a knell than a Christmas chime as one hears that our boys of the Victoria Rifles to whom Christmas boxes were mailed the other day have put the immensity of the Pacific between themselves and home.And not so very long ago that poem by Sir F.H.Doyle, \u201cThe British Soldier in China,\u201d though it touched the heart, yet seemed a thing far removed from our concerns.But what are we to think of the press that has already applied the name \u201cconscript\u201d to Mr.Meighen in the sense that his party has conscripted him from the Upper House to the foray of active leadership?It may be one of the cases where a term of contempt, supposed to be used as a joke, sticks.If employed with this intention, it is an example of the methods to which ruthless partisanship can stoop, but the Hon.Mr.Meighen will just have to take il as a bit of pleasantry.And now the women of Quebec are organizing into Liberal and Conservative Associations.If à general election is to be fought on the issue of conscription this is a matter of gravest

(2)) Canada House, London; (3) Canadian Legation, Wiash- ington; (4) American Embassy in whatever country they may be; (5) British Ministry of Information.As soon as a man is officially noted as a prisoner of war the next of kin will receive complete instructions from National War Services, advising what he is entitled to, how often he can write and what parcels may be sent.Mail, that is, officially permitted communications, is sent by air and postage is free.Many thousands of parcels have been delivered in Germany.40,000 prisoners were token at Dunkirk alone, and it was three monihs before they were in camps.A number were Canadians.The Red Cross is permitted to send food parcels once a week to prisoners in Germany.At Geneva now there is a supply of 750,000 parcels in preparation for any emergency.Missing When soldiers, sallors, airmen are reported \u201cmissing\u201d all pay ceases and the case becomes one for the Department of Pensions.However, if he should later be found to be a prisoner of war, he is then re-in- stated and all further arrangements are in the hands of National War Services.In the meantime, arrears are paid when re-instate- ment occurs.Canadian Prisoners of War at end of October were listed as follows: Canadian Nationals interned 800, Canadians in R.A.F.interned, 86;

To the west, there is Chiang Kai-Shek with 4,000,000 men, veterans, with light.arms, awaiting only light artillery and panes for a large scale offensive.To the north is Russia, with crack troops along the Manchukuoan border\u2014troops that have already bested the Japanese in rather large-scale skirmishes during the past years.And of infinitely greater importance is the fact that Russian squadrons in a few hours could be over Japan's tinder cities, and with tens of thousands of incendiary bombs they could produce a tragedy such as the world as never seen, For these cities are built of highly inflamable material; they have little or no firefighting equipment; air-raid shelters for the people are non-exist- ent; to say nothing of the fact that one bomb dropped on their congested population will kill tens of thousands of people, Finally, the British fleet would move up from the south, and the American from the east.Why, in face of what is obiviously a step toward national suicide, does NOT ONE BUT THREE FOR FASTER RELIEF OF -COLDS HEAD:1cHes You get the relief you want\u2014when you want with Buckley's 3-ingredient Cinnomated Copsules.The first ingredient relieves pain and cold misery fost.The second stimulates and refreshes.The third beneficially relaxas nerves.Plus Oil of Cinnamon so widely and successfully used In Europe to combat grippe, etc.15 doses only 35 cents.MADE BY HE MAKERS OF BUCKLEY'S MIXTURE.0.8 4, Mrs.R.Sellar.at week's end, and poised for athe Japanese Government persist?How can any group of men be so The answer as was Suggested some time ago in an article in Saturday Night, lies in the myth held by men such as now guide ve It their firm conviction that the Japanese people are of devine origin, and that they must press on.They These men can never tolerate the thought that the China \u201cthe invincible But is the haunting thought that China is do- To save their face, they prefer to go under with a blind?destiny of the Rising Sun.cannot turn back.\u201cgeographical could defeat alone island Empire of the Sun.\u201d in the back of their minds expression\u201d ing just that.THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER Across the This is the second of a series of articles about conditions in Great Britain and other countries visited during six weeks spent in Europe.It is written specially for the Canadian Weekly Newspapers by the editor of the Fergus News-Recerd.+ + + Flying across the Atlantic is pure magic.\u2018There is no other way to describe it.No modern novelist has ever told the story.It is necessary to go away back to the Arabian Nights with its magic carpets, to Icarus with his wax wings and his unsuccessful attempt to fly over a mich narrower body of water, or to Pegasus with his broad pinnions.Clipper trips are more modern than our Literature, A writer in one popular American magazine recently tried to tell about the flight from New York to Lisbon, but he depended heavily on photographs.He did say.though, that those who had crossed the Atlantic by Clipper belonged to the most exclusive club in the world.The membership fee was $1,000 for less than a week and one requires | \u201cpull\u201d besides to become initiated {into this society.(Officially, the !

The new Airways Terminal, opposite the Grand Central Station in New York.is surely one of the most beautiful and appropriate buildings in the world.The entrance is a semi-circle of inch-thick doors of plate glass or one of the new plastics.Inside the doors, the passenger ascends by a moving stairway into a great blue dome studded with stars.Circling across and a bronze man with wings on his back.Not until the traveller reaches the top of the stairs does he see the offices of the various airways companies almost hidden around the horizon.When the time comes to go, large motor buses rise through the floor at the rear of the building, coming up from deep cellars and the trans- [ Atlantic passengers are hurried away by tunnels and roads to the airport.The Dixie Clipper rides at anchor

minutes to get the Dixie Clipper up off the water.It taxied back and forth over the bay while the pilot tried the feel of the wind against the wings and manoeuvred for the longest run over the water.Once we passed three of Uncle Sam's new motor torpedo boats, each one with two machine gun turrets and four torpedo tubes.We were almost touching one of New York\u2019s marvellous bridges before we finally started down the bay at full speed.Spray flew up over the little windows and soon the slap-slap of the waves against the bottom of the hull grew less violent and then disappeared\u2014and the Clipper was in the air, It circled over the edge of New York twice, gaining height, and then turned east over marshes and swamps and then the broad Atlantic.Two ships were nearing the coast.After that nothing but waves and clouds in every direction.Wonderland Above the Clouds Flying the Atlantic, as I said before, is pure magic.One does not realize it at first.Flying was not a new sensation for me.I had been doing it for 20 years in planes large and small, but never more than a few hours at a time.This was different.I sat on a sofa with two others.One was a young American girl who had saved her money for a luxury holiday in Ber- muds: the other a Detroit newspaper man returning to Europe, The plane was heated and air-con- ditioned.Even the wall covering added to the feeling of luxury for it was a tapestry with maps of the continents and oceans.Dinner consisted of consomme, chicken salad, ice cream and coffee.All these things were mere man.made attempts at comfort.The real magic was outside the windows.Every time I looked out, the long, slender, pointed wing was stil there with its two whirring pro- pellors.Far down below us were the clouds, for we flew at 6,000 to 8,000 feet where the air is still and there are few bumps.It was fortunate that we had clouds all the a the dome are the signs of the zodiac Atlantic .way across.The Atlantic, seen from that height, grows desperately monotonous when the air is clear but clouds are always changing shape and color.The sun set behind a distant row of thick clouds which looked like a far-off mountain range.A long path of yellow light stretched over the whiteness of the nearby clouds.They looked like masses of spun sugar candy.As the sun dropped away, the sky flamed with color.In three-quarters of the dome of heaven, it was already night but out in the west the full range of the spectrum stretched across the sky, brillant red at the horizon, going up through the yellows and the blues to the deep indigo of night overhead with a few stars already brightly shining.Lightning Around the Wings Nearing Portugal, we met a high thunderstorm.This time, the Clipper seemed unable to rise above it.\u2018The clouds were close around and often we were in them, thick fog.The lightning was around us, too, sometimes just beyond the wings, but there was no the motors.It was bumpy, 100, and for the first time.two ladies felt sick and strapped themselves to their seats.For some others, men and women alike, it was just a new and enjoyable sensation.At night, the steward made up the berths.That was after we had left Bermuda.There were 23 passengers then and room for them all to sleep.I had one of the wing and number three and four engines\u2014but the bed was comfortable and there was a rhythm to the i noise that was soothing, so I slept well.Outside the window there was a tiny sliver of new moon and the very bright stars.Magic doesn't Always Work Yes, flying the Atlantic is magic, but sometimes in the hands of hard-headed Americans the magic goes wrong.We should have left New York on Tuesday morning and have been in Lisbon on Wednesday night.But number four engine wasn't behaving too well even before we left New York.Out of Bermuda six hours, the Clipper turned back because of bach weather ahead.On the second try.we reached the Azores, but after landing there for more gasoline, the ailing engine died as we were opposite the last islands of the group and we turned back to Horta, where the Atlantic Clipper came along and picked us up, taking us the rest of the way.Even food ran short at last before we dropped down out of the darkness on to the Tagus River at Lisbon on Friday night.We had been 47 hours in the air instead of the usual 23, and had done some 2,500 extra miles of fy- ing.And the next morning, we in the air again, this time for England.were headed [ddd ddb dd bb ebb d [J] + '* FARM NOTES * Burton\u2019s Herd Sell Well A well known breeder of the district of

at the graduation exercises at St.Lambert High School will prove of great interest to all readers who are interested in education, It deals with the problems of students and the best remedies to adopt when such problems arise.Principal Cook said in part:\u2014 \u201cTt, is now my duty and my privilege to present to you the annual principal's report.Since this is my tenth report as principal of St.Lambert High Schcol, a few statistics may be of interest.In the autwnn of 1931, ten years ago, we had 778 pupils on our rolls, 170 of whom were in the High School grades, and 30 um Grade XI.This year we have g total enrolment of 762, 214 of whom are in the High School grades, and 41 in Grade XI.Last ycar we had 26 pupils in Grade XI, Therefore the increase in Grade XI alone thus year is 15 or 587.\u201cAl our 1931 graduation we presented certificates to only 45¢, of the June Grade XI class.This year \u201cIn between these two sad stories we have had an ies of excellent XI, reaching a high point of 100% passed in 1938.\u201cThe time honored method their parents.1s Passed \u201cI therefore r:peat that out of a receive their liplomas are certainly not very our share of the responsibility make the grade vear and deserve no blame whatever, and after we make due allowances for the unsettling effect of the war on our senior boys, so many of whom are serving in the army.navy and air- inescapable at present in our high school grades, the same thing will happen again, \u201cIt seems to me that by far the most important thing I can do tonight is to talk to the parents for a few minutes and try to give some idea of how we can wurk together in an effort to prepare our boys and girls for the world they will have to ener and for the problems they will have to face.\u201cTo begin with, you can't buy a new car for the price of a second hand one.You can't have your cake and eat it.If you want success In this life you must work for it.A high school boy or girl.even in Grade XI should not be allowed cut at night on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday.There should be no parties, dances, mov- les or visits on those four nights.I further suggest that all parents whose children are friends should, in modern slang, \u201cgang up\u201d on their own children and ahsolutely refuse to hold parties during tie week, Parents should insist on this.Do you want your child ten years from now to be filing letters or selling underwear behind a counter, or do you want her to be a trained nurse, or a university graduate?I find many St.Lambert parents seriously remiss in their Guties in this respect and I honestly believe that many of you are negleoting your duties as parents and attempting to turn over your responsibilities to the already overburdened shoulders of our high school teachers.The loss is yours, not ours.Apart from the adverse effect on school work, there is the question of health.Adolescent boys and girls need sleep and plenty of it \u2014 nine hours each night is not too much, \u201cTo pursue the truth further, if at nine o'clock in the morning we are confronted with a sleepy-eyed day-dreaming boy or girl with the memory of a nickelodeon ringing in a numbed brain, or the moaning of a radio reproduced saxophqne still stirring up barbaric instincts partially aroused and incompletely understood, we might just as well give tip.Your adolescent boys and girls are exposed to our elevating influence for five short hours each day.How do they spend the other nineteen?To be quite honest, do you always know?I am of the very definite opinion that parents who Sound High School Education Now Become Essential For Any Kind of Worthwhile Position Parents Urged to Bring Individual Problems to Principal and Teachers Concerned\u2014Adolescent Boys and Girls Need Plenty of Sleep\u2014Parents Often Avoid Shown-down With Students on Their After- oniy 62\u2018 of last year's Grade XI regeive their High Sghool leaving certificates.Here are the figures in tabulated form.Grade XI June 1931 June 1941) Enrollec 23 26 | Passed 10 16 Failed 12 10 .Passed 45 62 avoid a show down with, their own children on this matter and who &llow them to neglect their homework, are shamefully neglecting their duties as parents.It isn't that your child can't do the work.The trouble is that he is so often emotionally and physically unfit for it that our best efforts are in Wednesday, November 26th, 1941 who have successfully carried 10 subjects.A pass mark of 40% LS acceptable in all subjects, or if there is a failure in one, a general percentage of 60 is adequate.Thus, before cnoosing a course in Grade XI, careful thought should be given to tnat particular pupil's re- squirements., For example, all girls preparing for nursing should take Chemistry and if they wish to enter one of the better hospitals, they should carry 10 points, or matriculation standing.Pupils or parents who are puzzled about the entrance requirements of different universities should consult the school principal or the university registrar.\u201cTwo other points which may be of help are worth a little thought.If your child is weak in written English or Composition more books | of the better type should be read at home, and fewer newspapers and magazines, \u2018Classroom library books should be borrowed.The develop- vain.\u201cI have here two notes, one from a St.Lambert parent and one which was recently written to the headmistress of a girls\u2019 school in Middlesex, England.I read them without comment.\u201cThe first is: \u2018Please excuse Mary's lateness, She was out late last night at a party, and was £0 tired this morning that I allowed ner to sleep in\u2019.\u201cThe second: quoted word for word is: \u2018Please excuse Mary for being late at school this morning.We were viitzed last night and she was only dug out at 3 o'clock this morning.\u201d Duty is Plain \u201cI have thought a good deal about this problem and have come to the conclusion that our duty here is plain and clear.It is to give the boys and girls entrusted to cur care for a few short years the best possible training whatever the future may hold in store for them.\u201cThe problem to which I have \u201creferred briefly should be consid- ered as part of a much larger and more difficult problem\u2014that of rehabilitation.I have unbroken ser-| post-war v

French and does not want to learn it, this defeatist attitude may cause his own child to fail, Encourage your children to talk French.Never mind the mistakes.They don\u2019t matter.\u201cChildren who are [ailing in their weekly examinations should rot be scoided until the reason for their failure, is known.If the reason is laziness use all the discipline requiged.But first of all be sure that there is not some other cause.\u201cHaving exhausted my supply of advice, allow me to explain to you! some of my administrative problems.I shall mention only two.\u2018In the two months of Septem- | ber and October , requests were made to me by 16 different organ- izations\u201416\u2014for contributions to their funds, permission to speak to j our classes, or some similar help.In some of the larger schools the number is even greater.\u201cIn most cases I was obliged to refuse help.In the case of the Junior Red Cross, for which we ; bave the greatest sympathy and which we always help a great deal, ; Permission was given for a large ous classrooms with a sticker attached so that nennies or ten cent :pieces could be pasted on the ; petty thieving in the school had | increased 100%

foreign element who must be given as much education as possible in a short time, in order to assimilate them into our western civilization as quickly as possible, The circumstances in St.Lambert are quite different\u2014we are nearly 100% British-Canadian here.Our pupils do not need to learn a new language or wrestle with new concepts of living.Let us cooperate on our own problem, while thinking sympathetically of other people.\u201cIn conclusion, I am afraid that those of you who hoped for a speech replete with Shakespearean quotations have been grievously disappointed with this very utili tarian oratory.This is the only occasion when the Headmaster can reach the ears of a large number of parents, and probably like the clergyman who scolds his flock for non-attendance at church I have spoken to the wrong people.The remedy for that is for each parent to bring his individual problems Lo the principal and teachers concerned.We have all had some training in teaching and school administration as weil as a good deal of practical experience.We are all at your service.The words in our school announcement concerning interviews are sincerely meant.Let us all \u2014 board members,
