party was given yesterday by the King's Westmount Home and School Association, The event, which was in honor of the rugby team which recently won the Elementary School championship, but which included every member of the school, started with movies at four thirty.A very tine supper of hot dogs, pop and cake was then \u2018thoroughly and noisily enjoyed by all.Many of the loeal merchants helped

Officer, Friday evening, Captain R.H.Green of the 137th London Company (England) who had been endeavouring to inspect the unit for a few weeks, however, due to unforeseen circumstances had been forced to postpone his visit each time.He was much Impressed by the splendid inspection and pere formance of the boys through the various movements of squad drill, also their agility in Physical Training.He remarked that the steady flow of recruits being ree ceived by the 1st Company was like unto most of the British Brigade units at the present time, with a waning Interest being mant- fest in cadet units, boys are more increasingly turning their attention toward the old established organizations which have so much to offer, and in particular The Boys\u2019 Brigade which has such a varied programme.In his remarks to the boys, Capt.Green told them how his own Company had been bomhed out of existence during the blitz, leaving only three boys to carry on, the rest heing accounted for as killed and missing, He said that In spite of these hardships the Brigade marched forth valiantly and during the past two years has steadily built up scores of new Companies in all parts of Britain, many being in badly bombed areas.He loo%ed forward to carrying on with the 1st Company whenever he is in Montreal and Captain Richardson assured (Continued on Page 4) er eee mnt nt Ta + ese vem ne AE

Parker, who bas just b2en an- nouyced as emeritus principal of Westmount High School, that uni- rsities may become mere technical schools where young people will - receive a training, but not an education.This opinion was expressed by Mr.Parker in an address at the! graduation exercises of the school held in Victoria Hall under the chairmanship of A, Lovell Phillips.The convocation was featured by the presentation of certificates to 164 graduates of Grade 11 and nine graduates of the 12th.grade, One of the graduating pupils, Miss Heidi Eartly, 15 years of age, ranked first in the province,x while Donald Patterson, another pupil of grade 11, ranked second in the provincial lists.When It was announced, during the ceremony, that Mr.Parker, who served on the Protestant Board of School Commissioners since joining the staff in 1910 had been made principal emeritus, the news was greeted with loud applause, and Dean C.S.Le- mesurier, vice-chairman of the Board presented Mr.Barker with a desk in appreciation of his long and devoted service in the interests of Westmount youth and education.Dr.Fred J.Tees, who completed several years service on the board and one term as chairman last year, was presented with the gavel which he used in office as a token of his contribution to education.Welcome to, Principal R.O.Bartlet was formally welcomed to the post of principal of the High School by Mr.Phillips; the valedictory address was deliv- éred.by Brian Macdonaid; and the opening prayer was pronoune- ed by Rev.Canon Gilbert Oliver.Talking specifically to the students, Mr.Parker told them to maintain their rights.\u201cYou have, not only a right, but at this time in particular a duty, to demand of the university an education, and when I say an education, I mean the cultivation of true and pure tastes; the choice and pursuit of worthy ideals; self-discipline; self-train- ing; self-organization.\u201cThen, and then only,\u201d said Mr.Parker, will you have a consciousness of responsible personality, character will assume a place superior to scholarship, and culture will become auxiliary to service.Medals, prizes and honors were presented: Donald D.Patterson got the gold medal as dux of the boys side, and Heidi H.Eartiy, the gold medal as dux of the girls\u2019 side.Presentation of the award of honor was made to James Spencer by Eric Bushell

Margulies.St.John Ambulance Brigade Reports On Its Activities A statement on its activities.has been isued to the citizenry of Westmount by St.John Ambulance Brigade.Following is a summary.The Westmount St.John Ambulance Division No, 178 was organized in September, 1942, The Charter was granted on December 1st, 1942.A rigorous training program was instituted and duties were taken over by trained men almost immediately, By spring, 1943, the Division was able to place trained men at all public gatherings in Westmount, such as Rotary Carnival, Navy Cadet Parade, etc., as well as take part in C.P.C.practices and look after possible accidents on the ski-hills and skating rinks.The West- mount Division also sent men to Mount Royal during the skiing season, assisted in Victory Loan Parades, church picnics and many others.ts members did 546 hours of voluntary duty, over and above the time needed for training and refresher courses, A steadily growing Division wag able to send more men on duty and during the first 6 months (January 1st to June 30th, 1944) 720 hours of public duty were performed.This enormous increase was in part due to the fact that the men, together with other divisions, were able to look after the welfare of the skiers In some Laurentian Mountain Skiing Centres.Fortunately, only 33 cases of accidents needed attention by the First-Ald men during the above mentioned period.The training program requires 2 hours every week, of which 1 hour is devoted to theoretical instruction and the other to praec- tical work, Theoretical instruction consists of anatomy and physiology of the human body, with which the first aider has to be thoroughly cor- versant, as well as lectures and demonstrations of signs and EXAMINER, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1944 Canon Scores The Desecration Of The Sabbath Referring directly only to \u2018\u2018a deplorable exhibition scheduled to take place tonight in one of our large public buildings,\u201d Reverend Canon G.Oliver, of St, Mathias Church, Westmount, when speaking at a service on Sunday morning, was generally understood to refer to the appearance of Frank Sinatra, at the Forum.\u201cSurely, the vested interests have time enough during six days in the week to make mondy, without encroaching on the Christian Sunday\u201d said the Canon, who added: \u2018Surely none but morons could be attracted to such an exhibition, and we, as Christian people should make some definite protest against this abuse of the | Sabbath, \u201cWe have been silent too long,\u201d said the preacher, \u201cabout the happenings in this city on the Sabbath.Are we never to make a stand?\u201d \u201cIn these days, when the lads overseas are shedding their blood in order to establish ideals that make life worth living\u201d, the Canon concluded, \u2018we at home should surely maintain a reasonable and decent standard in our public life.\u201d : ES HS.Ross Talks On Electricity the topic of the address delivered last week to Montreal Westward Rotary Club by Howard S.Ross, K.C., who spoke on \u2018Quebec Hydro and Some Other Hydros.\u201d Mr.Ross spoke favorably of the expropriation of Montreal Light Heat and Power Consolidated by the Godbout Government during the past summer and cited the Ontario Hydro-Electric Commission, the Tennessee Valley Authority and developments at Tacoma, Washington, He criticized the policy that permitted power potentialities to remain unused in the Province nf Quebec, Mr.Ross was Introduced by Alfred F.Ladouceur, in charge of the programme for the day and was thanked by W.J.Thistle- thwaite.Harold F.Brewerton presided at the opening of the meeting but had to leave later for Ontario where his son, LAC Harold Brewerton, was due to undergo a serious operation, Duncan M.Jones, vice-president filled the vacancy and took charge of the closing stages of the meeting.Prior to the address Mr.Jones made the first report on results achieved by the club\u2019s competition with the Victory House being erected in Montreal West as the prize.MASONIC SERVICE The officers and members of Zetland lodge No.12, A.F.& A.M.which this year celebrates its 100th anniversary, will attend

Know Your SERRE EREEEEEER RRR RRR QUESTION: How does West- mount go about the clearing of a heavy snowstorm?In.Westmount there are about sixty miles of sidewalks and thirty miles of streets to be kept clear or rather sidewalks whose length is from Montreal to St.Agathe and roads of a length of one half that distance.These must be cleared so that traffic may circulate as freely as possible during the snowstorm as well as afterwards.Neither the depth of snow which will fall nor the length of time between storms can be foretold.The city is divided into eleven sections each in charge of a sub- foreman and to each is allotted a number of men and a tractor with a plough.It is the duty of these force: to take care of only that one section throughout the winter \u2014 both sidewalks and roadways.The City is also divided into nine sections or plough routes for the purpose of clearing snow from the roadways and seven trucks equipped with snow ploughs are employed in this work.Let us then suppose that a ' vy storm is falling and has reached a depth of about four inches and showing signs of con- tiruing.A simple command is given to the drivers of the tractors\u2014 All out the sidewalk tractors\u2019\u2019\u2014each driver takes his tractor with plough to a predetermined point in his section and goes over the sidewalks in a predetermined course as taught him in the rs 8 rir CE TETE ns Sr pp VS \u2014 Re AE TR x des PACE TWENTY Movies Are Upheld In Debate in LCC.Moving pletures exercise more beneficial influence upon modern youth than do magazines, This thesis was successfully up- field by two Lower Canada College students in a debate with representatives of Montreal West High League.School held in L.C.C.on Friday.The occasion marked the reopening for the season of the Juter-High School Debating Maintaining the affirmative were IKenneth Hague and John Young of Lower Canada College.The case for the negative was presented by Brenda Maude and Oliver Stephens of Montreal West High School.Lorne Webster of Lower Canada College was chairman.The judges were Reginald Cuffe, residence secretary of Central Y.M.C.A, W.H.Spearman, executive secretary of Westmount Y.M.C.A, and W.S.Edgar of The Monitor.All three are residents of Notre Dame de Grace; R.A.Speirs, assistant headmaster of Lower Canada College was an interested listener to the debate which was held in the library.The case of the affirmative was that films depict actual scenes of present-day events, reproducing sights and sounds in a manner impossible to the magazines, that in general much of the best material in the printed pages Is eventually depicted in moving films and that the attention of the youth of today was captivated by the film in a greater \u2018degree than by the magazine; that Hollywood strives for meticulous historical accuracy in matters of historical detail and that the Influence of screen dialogue upon daily speech makes for better English, The negative countered with the charge that the movies depict a world of unreality, that thelr influence is of the passing moment with no opportunity for review as an aid to receptiveness that education 1s far from being the primary purpose of the film and that its attraction for youth had been grossly overrated by the attirmative.Direct issue was taken with the assertion that colloquial apeech had an ally in the flickers.Miss Maude cited some instances of movie dialogue which appeared to confirm her challenge.Reporting for the judges Mr.Edgar said that the decision in favor of the affirmative was unanimous and in a brief address enumerated the strong and weak points of the two sides.He specially commended the rebuttal by Kenneth Hague which wound up the debate.Lorne Webster, on behalf of the audience, thanked the Judges and participants.Huge Postwar Program Seen Road construction in Canada in the 10-year period after the war is expected to involve expenditure in excess of a billion dollars, mostly provided by revenue to the Provinces fro mroad users without any increase In the present taxation, R.A.Stapells, president, told the Canadian Automohile Assoclation at its annual meeting.Mr.Stapells stressed the importance of the motor car in the life of the Dominion, and sald it seem- od almost incredible that, despite wartime restrictions on motoring, : almost ag many motor cars are in use today as before the war.This had been made possible largely by the restrictions themselves, which had tended to conservation of motor vehicles by limiting their Use largely to essential purposes.*Most of us,\u201d he said, \u2018\u2019can thank the vexatious but essential wartime regulations for what cars we fiow have.\u201d With an expected increase in [ THE EXAMINER, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1944 Talk On Value of Reading Given Rosedale Association Miss Gwendolyn McEwan, head of the Children\u2019s Department at Westmount Public Library was the speaker at the recent general meeting of the Rosedale Home and School Association.Miss McEwan gave an interesting talk on the value of an interest in reading in education and in later life.She compared the ideas gleaned from good books to seeds dropped into the child's mind which sprang up and enriched and beautified his whole life, ; The speaker had with her the jackets of about one-hundred recommended .books for children of tourist travel, he warned that adequate provision should be made for emergency garage service, \u2018\u2018together with the sale of gasnline and oll at nights and on Sundays and

sidelights on the contents and appropriateness of each.The talk was of particular interest to parents at this time as it contained valuable hints as to books for Christmas gifts as well as those which would be suitable for the school and class-room libraries.A cordial invitation was extended by Miss McEwan to parents and teachers to visit the Westmount Libary to see its collection of children's books and also to take advantage of the expert advice of the librarians in selecting books, Sky Hook A device known as a \u2018sky hook\u201d drops supplies of food, medicine, and mail from cargo

Alexander Howard Ross Cann, Netherlands Government Information Bureau camera man and nephew of Howard S.Ross, K.C., editor of The Forum in this publication, in a cabled message from Sydney, New South
