She suggested means by which contact might be made with the town of Nogalsfc In a personal way by adults and chli dren in correspondence as well .as by community effort.

In 'history as the outstanding thing of the Twentieth Century. 'GEOKOE STANTO.V, BOILERMAKERS' HEAD George Stanton spoke Of the development of Russia along the lines of trades unionism. 4 Magnlficeht things had been done in Russia, the recognized workers having made these things possible. In the space of twenty-five years Russia had been converted from a land Of devastation and famine with 86 per cent of her people illiterate to a country whieh today led In "culture, science, Industry and "knowledge. Out of chaos had been built a magnificent civilization of busy workers. All had come about through collective thinking and action, social own ership and planned economy. . .Their accomplishments in war had clearly demonstrated that the Russian people felt they had something real to fight for, That something was the own The Seal of Quality British Columbia's Finest Salmon SAVOY HOTEL Carl Zarelli, Prop.

THOUSTINSSON, SCHOdL 'INSPECTOR School inspector Thdistelns-son &I'd that the British Com monwealth and Soviet Russia were agreed today upon the necessity of fighting a common foe. As lOhg as that situation eXttted there Would be no heed to worry about relations. But the time Would come after the war when tensions would arise. As 'Fieid Marshal Smuts said a colossus was developing In Russia arid the Soviet would become one of the dominant powers of the world. Here was a situation which might as well be realized. It would appear wise to build up amicable and friendly ties while still It was possible. A free and full exchange of views would be most helpful.

You don't really begin to get acquainted until you've seen it with its hair in curlers, a shiny nose and a bad case of sniffles. That's why nobody knows quite as much about General Motors army vehicles as the men of REME. REME stands for Royal Electrical Mechanical Engineers, and they've seen our Canadian vehicles in every possible condition. Their main job is to keep the wheels rolling behind and with the rolling, British Armies. The soldiers of REME go as far forward as roads will take them, to provide under battle conditions the same crackcare for our fighting machines that we peacetime motorists always got for our Chewy coupes at the neighborhood garage. They run into some hard cases. The chassis hasn't been invented that will win an argument with an 88 millimetre shell or a Teller mine.

HANDLING A SLOPE Where grounds s.ope sharpie ray r.rve -ai fi e' a few yard; R S. v rornvd supplying a fast-moving army, things happen to the engines of military vehicles that shouldn't happen to a sergennt-mnjor. In the early stages of nn amphibious operation like North Africa, Sicily or Italy, for instance, nn unexpected shipping loss or a few blown bridges can mean that one truck may have to do the work of two for days or even weeks on end. In such periods of urgency' and strain, n front-line vehicle can no more expect the luxury of daily maintenance than n front line soldier can expect a daily bath. 'Mechanics see these overburdened trucks at their worst which means, paradoxically, at their lest. They agree the real test of a military vehicle isn't how far and how well it will run under ideal service conditions, but how far and well it will run after it ought to have refused to run at all. They agree that Canadian trucks have passed this test wherever they have met it.
