The address gave Mr. Anfield the opportunity to delve interestingly, if Incidentally ,into certain items of early native history and customs. He disclosed, for example, that such villages as Metlakatla, Kincolith and Port Simpson were not aboriginal but had been established either after the introduction of Christianity or, as in the case of Port Simpson, around the Hudson Bay establishment. Mr. Anfield paid tribute to the work of the church in pioneerr ing the civilization of the native population. The church had assumed a useful and beneficial responsibilfty even before the government. tl'-'UUJ.

Obviously, the person who wrote the letter did not appreciate Laurence Olivier" mastery of the Shakespearian play. To some students who really are glad to see such art, the showing of the film was worth even more than 50c. To those students who saw the film only to be excused from school, I feel that 50c is a fair price to pay for an afternoon off school. A STUDENT.

( Itmiuiw ... tiling ll:iiiy li i I p NT EVERY CONTINENT of the world perhaps I in every country there are English-speaking people who will honor tomorrow for the memory of St. George. It may seem odd, at first thought, that a young Roman officer, born in Cappadocia in the third century when England was little but barbaric wilderness, should have come to symbolize the England that later led the world as a champion of freedom. But it takes only a glance at St. George's life to tell that England could have no fitter symbol. Born a Greek Christian in the year 270, St. George rose to a high command under the Emperor Diocletian. The young officer opnosed Diocletian's persecution of Christians, resigning his commission and demanding liberty for his fellow worshippers. His reward was arrest, torture, and on April 23, 303, death at the hands of the Roman authorities in Nicomedia, in Asia Minor. But reverance for his gallantry spread out the East, churches were built in his honor and centuries later the Crusaders adopted him as their soldier saint. In 1222 the Council of Oxford decreed that St. George's Day commemorating his death be observed as a national holiday. St. George has another link with England, a link that may have been one of the small turning points in the destiny of nations. History records that while on a mission to Britain during his military service he converted to Christianity the Roman ruler of Britain, Constantius, and his consort, Helena. It was Helena's son who afterwards became Constantine the Great, the first Christian emperor of Rome. Besides its association with St. George, April 23 is famous in British history as the anniversary of Shakespeare's birth and death, and of the celebrated British blockading of the Belgian harbors at Zeebrugge and Ostende in the First World War. This attempt to bottle up tj;o vital, German-held bases jn the spring of 1918 when German submarine flotillas were strangling Britain's sea lifelines remains one of the most daring enterprises in the history of naval warfare. Though o:Iy partly successful, thf exploit in which, 637 men were killed, wounded or missing, and nine heroes earned V.C.'s sent a breath of inspiration throughout the hard-pressed Allied Forces. : Englishmen and sons of England everywhere may well recall these lines by England's imperial poet: "This royal throne of kings, this sceptred isle, This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars, This other Eden, demi-paradise; This fortress, built by Nature for herself, Against infection and the hand of war, This happy breed of men, this little world, This precious stone set in the silver sea, Which serves it in the office of a wall Or as a moat defensive to a house, Against the envy of less happier lands.
