HUNTINGDON, QUE., WEDNESDAY, MAY 31st, 1944 EIGHT PAGES Lt.-Gen.E.L.M.Burns Leads Canadians on Italian Front Well-known to Huntingdon People, Lt.-Gen.Burns is Nephew of Mrs.H.R.Graham The following account of action on the Italian front will be of interest to the people of Hunting- don and district, as the Canadian Corps is under the command of Lt.-Gen.\u201cTommy\u201d Burns, a nephew of Mrs.H.R.Graham, of Hunting- dan, Que.All will have heard of the great su.cesses on this front and breaking of the Hitler Line and will feel a certain amount of pride in the fact that the Commander is known well, locally.The account of the action follows: With the Canadian Corps in Italy, May 24\u2014The Canadian Corps, fighting for the first time with its full strength on a common front, has broken through the Hitler Line north of Pontecorvo and opened a road for the Eighth Army's advance up the Lirl valley toward Rome.Spearheaded by veteran formations, the men under Lt.-Gen.E.L.M.(Tommy) Burns, 46, of West- mount, Que., smashed through the main \u2018defences of the powerful line across the Lirl valley after what an Allied communique described as \u201cextremely heavy fighting against great opposition.\u201d «The Canadian Corps has greatly distinguished itself in this its first action as a corps,\u201d the communique declared.\u2018Thus, for the first time since the old Canadian Corps established such a gallant reputation under Lt.-Gen.Sir Arthur Currie in the Great War, a Canadian Corps formation's deeds were recognized.For Gen.Burns this was the first opportunity to lead his men in offensive action.His appointment as corps commander was announced in March, less than a month after his presence as a Canadian divisional commander in the Italian theatre was disclosed.He succeeded Lt.-Gen.H.D.G.Crerar, who left for Britain to command the First Canadian Army.Men fighting today could recall Gen.Crerar's words as he announced the transfer of command: \u201cI am handing over to an officer In whom I have the greatest confidence, Gen.Burns, and I know that when the signal is given to press on, this corps will be well jaunched.Nothing can stop it.Nothing will.\u201d The men carrying out this prediction began their advance against the Hitler Line yesterday against fierce German opposition and despite a torrential rain, and continued today with armored and infantry formations driving on.Ontario, Maritimes, Western Canadian and French-speaking (perhaps the Royal 22nd Regiment of Quebec) troops figured in the assault.Opposition eased today but the speed of the advance was slowed somewhat by extensive minefields.Until today's communique disclosed the Canadian Corps was taking part in the offensive, correspondents had not been permitted to say that Canadians fighing in the Liri valley were the same formations which spent the winter holding the Adriatic line north of Ortona.It is more than a month now Lachute Fair Will be Held June 14, 15, 16, 17 Lachute

Francis Adam Shirriff, founder of the well-known food products firm of Shirriff's Limited, died May 27th at his residence, 30 Roxborough Street West, Toronto, in his ninety- seventh year.Mr.Shirriff was a native of Hunt- ingdon, P.Q.son of the late Dr.Francis Walker Shirriff of Edinburgh, Scotland, and Anna Aird Macnider.He was educated at Huntingdon Academy and as a young man saw action in the Second Fenian Raid at Trout River, serving in the Huntingdon Borderers Battalion, of which his father was surgeon.After a short period in the civil service at Ottawa under Sir John Rose, then Minister of Finance, he came to Toronto in 1872, engaging in the wholesale provision business.LEADS CANADIANS LT.-GEN.\u201cTOMMY\u201d BURNS, 46- year-old Westmounter, was disclosed yesterday to be leading the Canadian Corps in Italy into action around Pontecorvo.This was the first time the Canadians have fought as a corps since Lt.-Gen.Sir Arthur Currie led them in the last war.since the last Canadians left the Italian east coast and moved to the vicinity of Campobasso to train for the new campaign.The strictest secrecy covered this move.The brunt of the fighting up to now has been borne by battalions tof the 1st Division) which invaded Sicily more than 10 months ago.They entered this battle about the time that Indians and tanks of a Canadian armored brigade were clearing the Germans from Pigna- taro May 15, and soldiers from the same division led yesterday's break-through.Elements of divisions commanded by Maj.-Gen.Chris Vokes of Winnipeg, and Maj.-Gen.B.M.Hofi- meister of Vancouver fought side by side for a short time in the Adriatic, .but Gen.Hoffmeister's formations were moved from the line soon after Gen.Crerar returned to England, and the remaining Canadians came under British command.The soldiers are in peak condition and well trained for the campaign of movement.What the men think of the present action is well expressed by Cpl.Jack Henderson of Montreal, a member of the scouts and snipers platoon of an Ontario battalion.\u201cThere is more life to it here.he said.\u201cOn the other side it was patrol, patrol all the time.Now we know we got Jerry on the run and we feel we are doing something.\" Henderson was referring to the months of patrolling on the Adriatic sector after the Canadians toppled Ortona last December to climax the bloody Moro valley

Rev.T.and Mrs.Knowles, on Monday evening, in the basement of the United Church, with a fairly large gathering present to hear him.Rev.Knowles opened the meeting by all joining in singing a hymn, followed by the reading of scripture passages and a prayer.In introducing his son to the gathering, Mr.Knowles said it was always difficult to do s0 when it was one's own son.He was glad that he was able to return to Canada and he was now here to take further instruction in learning to fly a plane.In simple, straight-forward language Sgt.Knowies told his story of life In India, where he was stationed for several months.He first went to England, then to Scotland, Ireland, Durban, Africa; Cape Town, Africa and then on to India.He said the trip to India from England took three months, because they stopped off at several points in Africa.The Hindus live in huts made of bamboo poles and mud and use bed- springs made of rope.which are not very comfortable until you get used to them.Nets are used at night to keep the mosquitoes from bothering the sleeper, as there is always a danger of catching malaria.These nets are tucked in all around the bed.Plenty of snakes are to be

sent to The Gleaner by Mr.Robert Schurman., of Montreal, who is a chartered accountant and keeps in touch with the matters he sketches.Mr.Schurman audits the books of the Huntingdon Mills Ltd., The Hun- tingdon County Hospital and The Huntingdon Gleamer Inc., annually.We believe it to be worthy of a place in our Editorial Columns as it should prove of interest to all business men and others as an aid to watching the developments of the country.\u2014\u2014 HOW'S BUSINESS?+ HE merchant.the manufacturer and the primary producer keeps an ear to the ground and continually asks \u201cHow's Business\u201d?The economic battle on the home front must be planned after seeking all information possible.Answers are usually biased by the viewpoint of the beholder.Recently published Canadian statistics say: \u201cThere was continued curtailment in industrial activity at the beginning of February.\u201cWar production has reached its peak.\u201cThe peak of production on war contracts has been definitely passed.\u201cThere is a progressive shift.gathering momentum every month towards greater production of civilian goods.\u201cWeekly per capita average earnings were $31.75 at the first of February.In 1943, it was $20.96.\u201cHouse building in March nearly doubled that of last year\u2014$8.814,000 compared with $4,712,000.\u201cA ten million dollar contract has been let by a big paper mill company to construct a complete townsite on the north-east shore of Lake Superior, Ont.\u201cRetail sales were 6\u201c: higher than in February a year ago.Wages increased in the same proportion.\u2018In other words.John Q.Public and family are, as usual, spending up to their increased income.No doubt they have to).\u201cIncome Tax collections increased 18.6%.Total collected\u2014one billion.six hundred and thirty-five million dollars.(This is about $150.each for every man.women and child in this Dominion\u2014or S600.for every little home where there are two children).\u201cThe funded debt of the Dominion was ten billions, five hundred and sixty-one millions on January 31st.(This is about $960 for every man, woman and child.or $3,840 for every family of four\u2018.\u201cCanadian mills provided 71% of the total United States newsprint supply.(Newspapers are now using 30-pound paper instead of standard 32-pound paper, which publishers know to be a ream of 500 sheets cut 24 by 36 inches).\u201cBorrowings by sales of Canadian securities (bonds) to other countries, reached a record level of $172 millions in 1943, of which the United States took $150 millions.(Uncle Sam now holds the mortgage).\u201cThe Canadian National Railways showed a cash surplus of 335 millions after payment of operating expenses, interest and taxes Passenger traffic was four times and freight more than double that of 1939.(This road as well as the Canadian Pacific CAN be run at a profit).\u201cStocks of Canadian wheat at March 30th, were nearly 100 million bushels less than in 1843.Farm holdings were 118 million bushels less.(Money in the bank instead of wheat in the bin).\u201cReceipts of fine gold at the Royal Mint, Ottawa, in the month of March were 266,365 ounces or about 16,650 pounds avoirdupois\u2014 .one-third of an average carload.\u2018 \u201cInvestments in life insurance continue to be one of the most popular forms of enforced personal savings reaching total in the Province of Quebec of nearly $15 millions for the month of March.This is higher than that of any month in 1943\".All of this seems to add up to the present prosperity with the handwriting on the wall to prepare for future adversity.An urge to substitute wherever possible civilian activity for expiring war contracts.To maintain present level of prosperous employment.The economic well-being of 1926 seems to have agaln been attained after the disastrous slump of 1933.+ * * No orderly system can be planned so long as we have unruly morals.+ * * A Seditious Voice in the Legislature NCE again, Rene Chaloult, Bloc Populaire, Lotbinere, has raised his voice in the Quebec Legislature against the British Empire, this time expressing the hope that Quebec will get out of the Empire.This was announced on Wednesday, May 24th, when Canada was celebrating Victoria Day, or as some people call it, Empire Day.On May 25th, he was still at the same theme.Why is a man like this allowed to go on creating chaos im the minds of the peopie by making utterances that tend to make discord between the two races in this Province.There should be some in the Legislature at Quebec who have enough him to take his seat and ait said, \u201cOur people are submissive, but will not always be submissive, injustice will end in revolt and justly so\u201d.On May 24th, he said, \u201cas regards the Empire, I hope that we will get out of it as soon as possible because it has cost us too much in money, heart, and blood\u201d.Should a man who talks of \u201crevolt\u201d and getting out of the Empire, be allowed to carry on in a British Parliament as one of the members of that great traditional institution?\u2018There is great talk today of unity\u2014nation- al unity\u2014international unity.If such men are allowed to air views of this nature, will there be national unity while they go on arousing animosity of one race against the other?If there are going to be separate sets of laws for the various peoples of different races in Canada today, when will we ever have national unity.The French-Canadian is not the only race that has to be considered in Canada.There are Poles, Russians, Ukrainians, Hungarians, Czecks, Dutch, Scotch, Irish, Welch, English, Jews, Greeks, Italians, Germans, Swedes, Danes, French, Americans and numbers of other nationalities in Canada.If there are going to be separate laws for one section of the country, there will have to be separate laws for all sections.What would become of Canada then?In the armed forces of this country will be found representatives from all the above nationalities and more beside.Thousands of French-Canadians are serving with the armed forces and showing up very creditably, as evidence the valour of Major Paul Triquet, VC.These men of French Canada volunteered their services and wanted to fight for the protection of their country, it is hardly likely they could be persuaded to take part in any revolt for those who have remained behind to stir up trouble and talk of the bad treatment they are getting.It is hardly likely that they would want to be sided with those who would ban sending men overseas.Mr.Chaloult talks about Dollard de Ormeaux, who went out with a brave band to fight the Iroquois.Does Mr.Chaloult realise that the Indian is the true native of Canada and that they were being driven from their home at the time of which he speaks?Were they not just as brave that they tried to defend their home.But they lost, they are now living on Reserves.Today we are fighting not so much for the Empire, as to keep Canada from being overrun by Germans and Japanese.as the mother country of France was overrun, Being a part of the Empire has given us greater strength to accomplish our task.If we were as Mr.Chaloult would have us be, it is quite possible he would be under German dominance and perhaps suffering as those poor people of France are suffering today.Thank goodness there are only a minority of the French-Canadians who think as Mr.Chaloult thinks, but if this type of thinking is allowed to spread, no one can tell what might happen.Premier Godbout seems to have discovered a way to see that French- Canadians get equal rights with other nationals, one of them is the new act that provides compulsory education.Certain religious beliefs debarred children from attending school under a compulsory law, with the result that numbers of children did not aitend school in this province and therefore lacked one of the essentials to holding good positions.He has remedied this.but it will not be noticed for some years.because of a late start.Premier Godbout does not attribute the fact that French-Canadians have not been able to hold high positions, to racial differences or prejudices.He sees that most French-Canadians have been held back by the laws or lack of laws to allow them to have the same advantages as others have had.Mr.Chaloult complains of the low wages in Quebec and the fact that French-Canadians have large families to care for.The need for having large families is another religious belief and teaching.even though it means these families living in inadequate surroundings and with insufficient means to provide proper livelihood.There is nothing against large families if circumstances permit the ability to provide for large families.But employers cannot be expected to provide wages in accordance to the size of the family a man has.If Quebec was to secede from the Empire, or to revolt, this would not solve the problems that Mr.Chaloult is raising as an issue.The rest of Canada would go on and leave Quebec to its own devices.It is quite possible that many industries would pull out and go elsewhere and a number of the population would go with them.It is the industries in this Province that play such an important part in the progress of it.Without them, Quebec would be left in a sorry position.The people would soon want to be included with the rest of Canada, and back in the Empire.If Mr.Chaloult had his way, he would probably establish a regime like that of Nazi Germany when the people would not know freedom or liberty, but be hunted like criminals.Not only would race be set against race, but person against person, until such distrust was rampant that another revolt would be started.France before the war was going through such times as this because of the German element which was fomenting such feelings.When the time came to strike, France was unable to hold her own, she was overrun.Her people are now suffering untold misery, except those who are traitors to their people and helping the overlords.Is that what Mr.Chaloult would wish for the people of Quebec?It would be better by far for those French- Canadians who think they have a grievance to make the most of their opportunity to succeed in the world\u2019s affairs.To succeed in harmony with other nationals of Canada, to become Canadians in the true sense of the word, not French-Canadians as apart from other races, but as Canadians and a part of Canada, working in harmony with whoever happens to be their working partner.If this were done the French-Canadian would forge ahead with the rest of the people of Canada.In unity there is strength, Canada must be strong to take its place in the world that will be, after the peace.Internal dissension will not right the wrongs supposed to be, harmonious living in accord -with all people of the country will bring a better understand- \u201c Ing.In a country such as Canada, racial be- llefs and tendencies will have to be discarded for national tendencies, that which is good for the country as a whole and the people as a whole.There must be no separatist movements, we must adhere to the national song\u2014 O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER + Chronology | \u2014 of \u2014 | CHATEAUGUAY, BEAUHARNOIS and HUNTINGDON COUNTIES _'rom Manuscripts of The Late ROBERT SELLAR (War of 1812 Continued) At this moment the enemy commenced to fire on this battalion who promptly returned it, then charged, and drove the enemy from their hiding places, dispersing them entirely and silencing their fire.In this the Americans had only 1 killed and \u2018some 3 or 4 wounded.At this moment the firing commenced on the opposite side of the river with some of the light companies, and it was here, and not in either of the main divisions of the army, that any serious loss or the least confusion occurred; the enemy was, however, soon dispersed in this quarter also.After waiting some time for the renewal of the enemy's attack, the main body of the American army fell back slowly and in good order.the enemy not daring to show themselves, or in the least to interrupt their march, to a position 4 miles from the place of action.Here they were shortly after joined by the detached party, who had some further skirmishing with the enemy of no great account.At this place they remained several days, without receiving the least molestation.The only failure of the expedition is attributable to the miscarriage of the guide, which disconcerted the plan.The American actual total loss in killed, wounded, and missing did not exceed 36 men.The whole American force engaged did not exceed 255 men on the side where the greatest force of the cnemy were opposed\u2014the other regiments did not arrive until the moment when the enemy were returning and were only formed and in line, but took no part in the engagement.Col.Pardy., who commanded the detachment which fought this battle, in his report to Gen.Wilkinson, is very free in his censure of General Hampson.\u2018Incredible\u2019 says | he, as it may appear, General Hamp-

Of Others Last week the Quebec-Sherbrooke Presbytery of the United Church, in Session in Trinity Church, passed a Resolution wnat will commend itself to the good judgment of all thinking people.It was on the subject of Demobilization, and urged that the Department of National Defence carry out a policy of gradua] demobilization, guarding the labor market from flooding by the wholesale return of our soldiers into civilian life.That in itself is not particularly new, but it was the details of the suggestion that caught our eye.The Presbytery urges that on the return of our men and women from the war, a 30 day leave with pay and travel warrant be given to all ranks.This will allow a deeply cherished visit home, and will also allow an enquiry into the possibility of the old job or a parity new one.At the close of the leave, all ranks giving proof of a job secured will be granted discharge from the Service.The rest will be retained in the various Camps, and given specialised Vocational training to further fit them for civilian life, being granted their discharge as soon as situations are available.It would seem to be a sensible way to avoid the tragic experience of the close of the last war, when ex-service men travelled the Dominion looking for non-existent jobs, or sold laces on the streets of our cities.We rightly demand the highest quality of morale for our fighting men under war conditions; we need .the same quality of the same morale under peace conditions.The plan suggested will be an excellent way to fit the man for the job, and lessen the handicap of the gap made by his patriotically enforced : absence from civilian life.It is one of the details of the peace that can and should be planned now.\u2014Sherbrooke Telegram.The European corn borer caused a loss

the number is increasing as more members take the train for Saskatchewan to take the hustings in the provincial election campaign.Everybody here recognises it will be a hard struggle.On the Liberal side, the minister of agriculture, J.G.Gardiner, will lead the federal forces taking part which will include several members.He is a veteran political campaigner.A farmer himself, for some time premier of Saskatchewan and since 1936 the federal minister of agriculture, he knows the problems and the people of the great grain growing province thoroughly.The provincial C.CF.leader, T.C.Douglas, who has been a federal member since 1935, is an eloquent speaker and is imbued with faith in his party's philosophy of government.He will be assisted in the campaign by the federal leader of the C.CF., M.J.Coldwell.The Progressive Conservative members from Saskatchewan including J.G.Dijefenbaker, one of the outstanding figures in the Conservative ranks will support the candidates of their party.The contest in the province which has been traditionally Liberal, except for the interregnum of the Anderson Conservative administration from 1929 to 1934, will be followed with the closest interest in federal circles.It is in Saskatchewan that the C.CF.has gained its major federal foothold, six out of the 11 members at Ottawa representing constituencies in that province, There are special provincial issues which will prevent the result from being an infallible barometer of opinion on federal affairs but these affairs will certainly have an influence on the election which will in some measure at least be a testing ground of the different philosophies of government.Parliament is looking forward to the visits of premiers John Curtin of Australia and Peter Fraser of New Zealand.In all likelihood they will be addressing joint houses of parliament when they are here.Certainly all members are eager to pay tribute to the heads of the government of the two sister Dominions which have been playing such an heroic part in the war.Both will be on their way back from the Commonwealth conference in London where they have helped to make Commonwealth history.Perhaps

\u201ccircumstances alter cases.\u201d This applies also to the nurses in hospitals.Take the rule, for example, that only relatives shall be permitted to visit patients.Of course anybody who stops to think can see that 5 rules must be stricter in such an in- situation than would be necessary if the patient were in his own home.But some latitude should be allowed for the nurse to use her own discretion.It is not hard to imagine cases where a visit would be a break in monotony and would do more good than harm.I have in mind a couple of instances in point.In one case, distance from home and relatives, and wintry weather and roads left the sick person isolated in spirit, message from her sister moved a friend to make an attempt at a call The patient had a chronic disorder with no acute symptoms likely to be ag- grevated by such a visit, but permission was refused on the ground that the caller wus not an actual relative.In the end persistence on the part of the visitor and discretion on the part of the nurse combined to give the sick woman a brief respite from loneliness and cheered her up.The second case was that of an aged woman who had very few relatives, and of these none could see her often.A friend of long standing ventured to essay a visit, but was not allowed to see her, because she was not related to her by blood, though she would have brought delight to the patient.Most of us probably have seen sick people worsened by the flow of rela tives visiting them in their own homes, and some of us have seen the same thing in hospitals.Relatives are not always the most tactful visitors, and they have even been known to make the well sick.An attack of nervous indigestion may be caused by hearing things \u201cfor your own good.\u201d Trout River Mr.R.G.MacMillan

with the witches in feeding and doctoring sick snnkes and, lastly, being able to sew up the eyes, cars and mouths of bad children! In reality, the dragonfly is a most formidable foe to mosquitoes, therefore, a valuable friend Lo mankind and should be protected, instead of molested.Its food Is composed of countless numbers of mosquitoes, gnats, flies and other small injurious insocts.It is perfectly harmless and doers not bite or sting.The mouth parts of the dragonflies are strong biting jaws.They have very large rounded eyes, composed of several thousand elements united this gives the head an \u201cover-size\u201d appearance.The head and long slender body are bright green, the legs black, the wings a metallle luster, spreading horizontally when al rest truly a beautiful, useful and interesting insect.Dragonflies are usually seen near water, but once in a while one may light, on the window screens where bountiful meals are theirs for the taking.In witching the antles of the dragonfly, one is reminded of the maneuvers of a skilled aviator.NAZI AIR ACE KILLED LONDON \u2018The German radlo reported that Col.Walter Sigel, described as one of the most succe:s- ful dive-bomber pilots in the Luftwaffe, who once commanded dive- bomber squadrons in the Balkans and North Africa, had been killed Wartime shortages make it very difficult co satisfy the increasing demand for Cadbury's.We regret any in air combat.MAGIC INSURES BAKING SUCCESS FOR YOU OFFE J te JS tor VE S » CHEESE BISCUITS 114 cups flour 3 cup milk La tapn, aaît 1 ebapn.shortening 6 thapns.grated cheene 2 tapna, Magic Baking Powder (When half-baked, place aquore of cheena on top of biacuita for extra Havor) Sift dry ingredients together; cut ln nbortoning.Mix In cheese lightly; add milk slowly, Roll out on floured board te 14-inch thick; cut with amall biscuit cutter, fluke In hot oven (475°F.) 12 to 15 minutes, Maken 12.= AND SOLDIERS TOO Everywhere you go\u2014Cadbury's Dalry Milk Chocolate Is the favour- itel Athome, everyone wants more of this delicious milk chocolate food.Overseas, our boys find Cadbury's a real standby \u2014a nourish- UNTIL PEACE RETURNS \u2014- Lend Your Money for Victory 4 £04 vege : Kf you are contemplating building a new home or making 4 extensions to the one you now occupy, makc very sure to install the necessary clectric wiring and put in outlet connections wherever thesc are nccessary\u2014 .7, e in the kitchen for electric stove, refrigerator, iy Cd / toaster\u2014 a) ® in the cellar for the washing machine\u2014 © in the living room for the radio, floor lamps, table lamps, etc.\u2014 © in every room for vacuum cleaner service.3 Trailing cords are a dangerous inconvenience.Switching from lamps to plugs is an unnecessary chore.Provide electrical outlets to light up all dark corners.Talk it over with your electrician.pr e 4 st The Shawinigan Water & Power Company .Electrical Power QS) Industrial Chemicals ENGINEERING ¢ TRANSPORTATION + CONSTRUCTION Contributed by J cu | AE DAWES BLACK HORSE BREWERY \u2018 KIDNEY- : LIVER ARR ron miata ee ATEN LT Ciera « Page Four THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER Wednesday, May 31st, 1944 | ingford li W.A.C.Consisti + Doug.Bo Huntingdon _ Hemmingfo Lo Military Band of the C.W.A.C.Consisting of 44 Pieces Sgt.Doug.Knowles m Locals Mrs.Elizabeth McEwen has re- turnéd to Huntingdon and is at present at the home of Mrs.Gordon Mclean, after spending the past month with Mrs.Charles Fraser, Dundee.(= Luncheon guests of Dr.and Mrs.A.A.White, on Sunday, were: Mr.and Mrs.Earl Maher, Sr.Mrs Earl Maher, Jr.and little son Denny; Mrs.Barbara Watson and Miss Lillian Snow, of Malone.N.Y.and Mrs.Donalds Turner.of Burl, NY.\u201c(i= The sum of $10.00 has been received from Mrs.James Stewart, as a donation to the Huntingdon County Hospital.-0- The Soldiers\u2019 Club wishes 10 acknowledge with thanks the following donations: The Corporation of the Township of Elgin, $25.00; Miss G.I.Holiday, of Dewittville.$2.00.-0- The Huntingdon Red Cross Society gratefully acknowledges a donation of ten dollars ($10.00) from Mrs.Retta Gentle -0- Miss Ruby Ruddock spent.a few days the past week visiting friends in Ottawa.-Q- Corporal A.Vandervuort of US.A.Army Signal Corp, Mrs.À.Vander- voort and Mr.B.Zewick.all of New York City, spent the weekend at the home of the Misses Millina and Gertrude Murphy.-O=- Show ay the Barracks Quite a number of loca!

from page 1) Sgt.Knowles was in Calcutta at the time the famine was at its height and saw some of the suffering that took place, which he said was sickening, although there was nothing that one could do about it.It was possible, he said for one to walk into a restaurant and buy a real good meal with plenty of everything, and then to come out onto the street and see people starving.The cost of the meal would be very high indeed.Churches are well filled every night of the week, mostly by members of the armed forces stationed in the city.The speaker said he met a Hindu, who asked him to stay and have dinner with him.He was of a very high Caste and according to his religion had to cook his own food, no one else must touch it.He prepared the meal, but would not eat with his guests, he ate his meal alone in the kitchen of his house.Meals comprise curry and rice, a kind of potato patty, and a pancake kind of patty made from flour, they are very filling.All Hindus take their religion very seriously and would gladly die for it.They believe in superstition and have many superstitious beliefs.This same Hindu was able to tell fortunes and answered questions written down on a piece of paper, which Sgt.Knowles had kept in his pocket for 24 hours.Modes of travel are by rickshaws, horses, taxis and very modern street cars.It is possible to tell the caste of the Hindu women by the way they are dressed, although quite a number have now adopted European dress.The women of India are the ones who do the work, carrying earth from excavations, bricks for building and all such types of labour.All must remain in their particular caste, and cannot progress as the people of the west know progress.Missionaries work in the villages and stay in the villages during the winter, but they go to the hills for the summer and a rest period.When it rains in India it comes down very fast and very heavy, with the possibility that a house may be easily flooded in a few moments.The dead are burned at specially appointed places alongside the river Ganges.At one time it was the rule that if the husband died first, the wife was burned with him.This has now been abolished.The address was a very interesting one and brought forth many a complimentary remark.After the address, those present were invited to look over a collection of articles and photographs which Sgt.Knowles had brought

all parts of the world and revelled in the scenic beauty of its cliffs towering white and high far above the level of the sea.Today, Dover is a fortress.Its guns command the channel and the enemy ships which succeed in running the channel\u2014 ff they do succeed\u2014are fortunate indeed.| | Ÿ EE EN 3 ATME CE J SILTY je UT Le of the water to prove the marksman- i ship of the Dover guns.With Our Weekly Newspaper Representatives Overseas The name of Dover will bring back to the minds of our readers the time when the Scharnhorst ran the gauntlet successfully.People wondered that such a thing could happen right under the nose of our guns.In those days, however, Dover did not conceal the weapon power with which it has been reinforced today.Even at that time, however, the Dover guns made things a bit unpleasant for the daring German raider, and out of the shots fired at || restaurant next door to a small pub where most of the party enjoyed a glass of ale before they sat down to one of the best meals we had run into up to that time.The food was well flavored and well cooked.While most of the boys were enjoying thelr ale, two of us found ourselves discussing with some of the workmen, the gun power that protects the English coast at this point.We found that the barrels of these huge guns were being renewed and workmen from the big factory in London were busy making the change over which took some two weeks and was then just about completed.\u2018The working quarters of those who defend Dover are built into the cliffs and long tunnels connect the various rooms which are well venti- the battleship three were known to have found their mark.The damage inflicted was sufficient to prevent the Scharnhorst from putting to sea at that time.Today, the enemy does ' that could of the! not possess any ships hope to run the gauntlet channel.One freighter Captain who dared to attempt it only a few months ago went down with his ship | and the mast is still sticking up out As we toured the Dover area, we were particularly impressed with the control room from which point the fire of the guns is directed with the aid of all the latest instruments.To | novices like ourselves the picture of this control room will forever remain impressed on our minds and here the mysteries of long range shooting were unravelled before our eyes.This alone made the trip to Dover worth while.We lunched at noon in a little lated.Here and there the tunnels lead out to the face of the cliff from which vantage point an observer, on a clear day, may see the coast of France.Indeed they can hear the explosion of the big guns which from \"time to time shell that area.They know just when to duck\u2014and it never pays to be late.Dover is one of the points from which speed launches patrol the channel under the direction of the Royal Air Force when raids are on, to assist in receiving those who come down in the channel.Torpedo boats are also stationed here and it was the privilege of our party to take a run in the channel in both types of boats.The channel is usually choppy but these boats made particularly good time as we dashed headlong for the French coast for a couple of miles\u2014and then turned back to Dover in case the Huns might think we were leading the The gentle tissue 2250 1 EN UT RCD tech aide 2 This Week Specially Written for Huntingdon Gleaner By GUY GAGNON Canadian Press Staff Writer Quebec\u2014(C.P.)\u2014Premier Godbout told the Legislative Assembly last week that each time he received complaints from French-Canadian trainees in English-speaking training camps \u201cI have notified authorities in Ottawa.\u201d He made the statement in answer to Rene Chaloult, Nationalist member for Lotbiniere, who complained about \u201cthe bad treatment given to French-Canadian trainees who do not want to sign for overseas service.\u201d Mr.Chaloult said he had received \u201cdozens\u201d of letters of complaint from French-speaking trainees and | quoted one from an Alberta camp | in which it was said \u2018we are ordered to speak English and we are punished if we speak French.\u201d \u2018\u2019That is treatment that would | not be applied in German internment camps,\u201d the lone Nationalist member of the Assembly added.Mr.Godbout assured Mr.Cha- long looked for attack and start shooting.The town of Dover has suffered considerably, both from the long range guns on the coast of France and from enemy bombers, but life goes on much as usual.Even the sound of gunfire doesn\u2019t seem to disturb the citizens of Dover\u2014not as much as it did our members, who, as they reached the defences.were greeted with an early morning battery practice.At that moment we did not know but what the enemy were taking a pot shot at the inquisitive reporters and no doubt deep in, their hearts there were some of our | party who were quite ready at that | moment to leave the story of Dover unwritten.On our way to Dover we passed through Folkeston, so familiar to thousands of Canadians.It was just outside Folkeston where our regiment was billetted when we landed | in England during the last war.Folkeston was a summer resort in those days and thousands of Londoners spent their holidays there.From the station we could not see that the town suffered much damage, but it did look to be considerably larger than when we knew fit | \u2014but perhaps we were not paying so much attention to the town in those days as to the people we found | there.haircut and $50.00 cardboard shoes.I we had no wartime controls on prices,
