VISIT TO FOUTIFICATIONS In Victoria recently the businessmen of the city were taken on a tour of the fortifications recently established 1UI ueieuse oi me capital ana tne entrance to British iwuuuiioia soutnern waters niclufling the approach to Van couver, in order to do this a special permit was .obtained irom Ottawa. Included in the party were representatives ' of the newspapers who told of the trip and something in general outline of the fortifications and the activities in connec tion witn tneir construction, nothuie to be of advantfurp to an enemy but enough to satisfy the people of the southern cities that they were not vulnerable to sea attack as they once were and need not .stay awake at night worrying about this being a possible Belgium. The main object of the trip vseems to have been lo im- p.iess tne business people with the .durability of supporting these defenses by making jt possible for young men in their employ, who were son inclined, to ioin thp inilitin units and fit themselves to man the guns jf necessary tigciuisL an enemy. One of the chief defenses seems to bnvo Wn nt Al bert He,ad in .a position commanding the whole Straits of duan trcruca irom which point the guns could "sink any fOiip trying to pass into Victoria or Vancouver .or any trying to enter Fuget Sound ........ where are located the cities of n ill m Seattle ana lacoma. At this point hundreds of former soldiers and member of the militia are working three shifts a day on the tunnelling and preparations for trun placements. On the land side barbed wire fences are being yiau, uiuv. U4. l uiai imj i.ortuicaijons may do wen protected from sea and land attacks. The rail head at Prince Ilupert is not yet protected but it is to be assumed that this wijl be included in early work of the department of defense. WHAT IT MEANS Many people do not realize just what it means financially, to the city to have a defense airdrome located at Prince Rupert. It means not only the expenditure of the money for construction of the .centre bui also the locating .oi' a permanent force at or near this point. It is possible thai from seventy-five to one hundred men will be located at the headquarters permanently and probably half of these will be married men. If the air,dr,ome is opate,d in the city it will be all the better for the city. At any rate jt sjioujd be in the neighborhood.

Among other things, such com mittees might help in getting children so trained as t9 be able to later go Into huslnes$ and Industry. Employment, of course. Mr. Dlacj: believed, was primarily a function of the governments which so far appeared afraid to ace the problem of unemployment. "Jt is your duty," said Mr. Black in conclusion, "to Impress upon our representatives the necessity of removing some of the obstacles In the path of pur child? ren's achievements so that Jthey may be able to enjoy a fuller .life in a hcttcr social order." Dr. Hugh Morrison Dr. Hugh Morrison's subject was "The Passing of the Little Red School House.-" He compared old educational methods with new While, from listening to some speakers, one might get the impression that everything was wrong with the educational system, Dr. Morrison .contended that there had been a definite change for the better in the past quarter pf a century and .that "the good Old days" might not compare so favorably.
