There are roughly oOO centres of population iii Canada with populations of 2000' or over. It is reasonable to expect that within a year or two after the war most of these towns and cities will'be served by airports of some kind. Prince Rupert is vitally interested in fTpttinp an airnort. PAGE TWO . Employment Service Needed . . . When rumors from Ottawa are heard that the Government proposes to maintain Selective Service after the war, the reaction of the average Canadian is that it is time.that Ottawa considered what the public think. .Selective Service .in Canada is near to breaking dwn because a compara-ivov 'sm.Tll sm-nlus of workers seekincr employment is available for immediate requirements, under the present system, employers who .have not a high priority are' forbidden to go out and seek for workers, amKSective-ervice is inclined' .to steer persons seeking work away .from suchtemployers.

The Department of Transport at Ut-tawa is responsible for licensing all airports which are to be used for commercial flying. Without the department's blessing, no aircraft can receive a license for commercial ,flying. The wise town will co-operate with the department from beginning to end. At ,'a town's request, the department will send an inspector to help choose a good site for an airport. There are many fine technical points in choosing an airport site, such as obstructions, contours of the land and drainage, etc. Aside from these, the main considerations are keeping the airport as close to public trans- ..4 nt-wl 4Vin milt 'r, nf 4num id 1C ' . i ,!they to interfere? vvnat tne v,anauian peopiu w.a m 2 ;vhat corrcct know is what' sort of system we are nunciationof "naphtiia?" going to have for finding people jobs after the war.

Ift alone, dollars are lazy by nature. They just lie around in people's pockets until they are spent. But the moment a dollar is paid on a life insurance policy, it starts to work. The hundreds of millions of policyholders' dollars invested in Canada today are performing a three-fold "serv ice: 1. They are setting up financial protection for the policy holders' old age or thi future security of their families, 2. They are hacking Canadian fighting ' men liheret er our forces are in action. 3. Their investment note for future use acts, meantime, as a brake on con- t siimer spending and so helps to fight inflation ti'hich would meilace our 'figliting men and civilians alike. Actually life insurance dollars are among the busiest dollars in the world. Such dollars are never idle. They are always circulating for the benefit of all.

"We are seeking basic types', which could be adapted to. the requirements of each commun ity,- he said. Although the classroom would still be the core of the new school building it would not be all of It. Where the school was formerly looked on, with some distaste, as merely the lair of the "Three R's," it ls now be lieved to be a complementary factor In answering the social, emotional and physiological as well as the academic needs of Us students. High priority is given to a Echbol library. However, it would be called a school library only because it would be housed In the school. Actually It would be a community library, avail able to everyone. Lots of window space and bright Interior colors would also be a consideration, at would handicraft training. The Kchool, Mr. Thorstelnsson and his colleagues feel, should give Its students social awareness as well a academic cnlightment. "Vya-fijiing" Brings Trawler To Port LONDON.

When the engines broke down 500 miles ths side of the Atlantic Lt.-Cmar. Jonn a. uargess ot Lancashire, ordered the crew "make all plain sail." The result was startling awnings, blankets, flags and even shirts were hurriedly made into sails. They worked, and' at a slow "three knota the ship continued hcr voyage safely. lll MONDAY.
