RED SCHOOLHOUSE IS DISAPPEARING Oust Simple Building Used in Father's Day New Westminster, B.C.--The lit- tle country schoolhouse is fast be- coming a thing of the past in Brit- Ish Columbia's Fraser Valley and other rural areas, and next term many a farmer's son and daughter will troon to a school as modern as anv attended by their city cousins. The small one-room "little red schoolhonse," where many men now nt in nublia life got their » 0° threa "R's", are quick- ly being replaced by modern new uells of learning, fed from far and wide by the school bus. The new structures embody home economics and gymnasiums, formerly frowned on by the rural folk. For years the farmer vote In the Fraser Valley turned down school by-laws embodying modern "frills". Farmers claimed their boys could exercise pitching hay."

Sinks Anti-Aircraft Ship in Harbor at Bergen London, July 2¢ The BBC has quoted a Turkish traveller, return- ing to Istanbul from a trip through Germany, as saying that British bombs have laid the German port of Hamburg "in ruins." "Im his visite to Hamburg, Emden, Bremen, Dusseldorf, Cologne, and Essen he saw hardly a single factory intact," the BBC reported. British dive bombers were report- ed by the Admiralty to have made an attack on the German base at Bergen during which they sank an anti-aircraft ship, though hamper- ed by adverse weather conditions. The attack on the Norwegian port was carried out just before dawn the Admiralty indicated, but be- cause of poor visibility the raiders were tnable to score hits on all of thefr ghjectives. Bombs Jere, however, dropped on | the Heal base and an enemy enti-~Ecrad ship was sunk. Far-tiun®! «German air raids dur- ing the nigh extending from the Thames 'estuary on the east to Wales on the west and from England to Scotland caused little damage and no fatalities, the Government an- nounced. : An eyeiwitness at a southeast town said the raiders apparently were attacking shipping and British fighteers were "continually racing { out to sea." Along the Thames estuary, most of the bombs fell in marshland or on rocks on the shore. A dozen planes appeared over Wales simultaneously -- the largest number to visit that area since the war began. In the face of heavy anti-aircraft fire, most of them fled, dropping their bombs on the coun- tryside, 'largely in open flelds, Explosions were heard in south- east Sco.land shortly after enemy | | | i | neesibility they The sounds indicated that bombs had exploded some distance | from a town. | About 100 incendiary bombs were dremped on a Scottish town, but of- ! planes. passed over, indicating the | were time bombs. | ; the | of Commons supplimentary esti- | | | ficlals said damage was compara- | | tively slight.

TAUNCH WARSHIP BUILT IN CANADA Two Others Are Christened at Montreal Ceremony -- Will Join British | built warship bound for service with | the Royal Navy slid down the ways of a Montreal shipyard Monday in an unique ceremony accompanied by the christening of two similar anti-submarine craft. For the first time since the war began women were present at the launching of a warship in Canada. Lady Campbell, wife of Sir Ger- | ald Campbell, British high commis- | sioner to Canada, cut the ribbons, | masking a red-white-and-blue- covered bottle of champagne against the bow. Like the first vessel, all the 200- foot craft of this class designed for service with the Royal Navy are named after Canadian wild flowers. Two others launched pre- | viously, but unnamed, lay at their | docks. Lady Campbell christened | these wessels. (Rigu'ations pm- | vented disclosure of their names.) Unlike previous launchings when warcraft slid into the war without | the blessing of a woman, Monday's | ceremony was colorful. Lady Camp- bell posed for news cameramen | with a bouquet of roses. She stood among naval officers who were wearing uniforms of white duck. Among these was En- | gineer Rear Admiral H. A. Sheri- | dan, admiralty representative of the British Supply Board in Can- ada. Blesses Ships Lady Campbell, who selected the | names for the craft, stood on a platform crowded with plant execu- tives, St. James street financiers and naval officers, to name the first vessel. Blessing the ship, she "May God guide her and her." One angle of the triple ceremony that was filled with the seamen"s foreboding of an unorthodox chris- tening of a good ship was the blessing of one of those already launched. Lady Campbell crashed the rib- bon-encased bottle against the ship's bow twice, but no cham- pagne gushed forth. An attendant shook the silken case and only the sound of broken glass came from within. The vintage had disap- peared before the ceremony and of- ficials glanced suspiciously about the docks for someone with a champagne breath. At a reception which followed the launching, Rear Admiral Sheri- dan told executives, "Canada and the British Empire owe a debt to Canadian companies building ships to protect the Empire and its trade routes." A company official said his firm would be able to deliver more ves- sels than had been required of it within the time limit. A | | At Opening of Nova Scotian Museum _ Angus L.

"The export trade must come sec- ond only to military necessities," he said. | "We must secure widespread and drastic retrenchment in forms of pérsonal expenditure not absolutely necessary." In disclosing details of the sensa- | tional "purchase" tax, Wood said | that it would be 33 1-3 per cent. on | wholesale values or 24 per cent. on | the retail price of luxuries. The tax, designed to production of unnecessary goods, | will affect 14 per cent. of the na- | tion's income, he said. It will not | apply to gas, electricity, water, chil- | dren's clothing, children's shoes, | certain medicines or farm ma- | chinery. | The purchase tax on "non-luxury" | items will be 12 per cent. on the | retail price, Wood said. { The high rate purchase tax would | apply to furs, silk, lace, China, por- | celain, cut glass, fancy goods, jewelry, toilet preparations, cos- metics, haberdashery and furniture, he explained. The lower rate will apply to adults' shoes, certain medi- cines and drugs, newspapers, peri- odicals and books. The tax, Wood said, will be ap- plicable when the goods pass from the wholesaler to the retailer, and is expected to yield 110,000,000 pounds ($440,000,000) for the full year, For the first time in British his- tory, it was announced, the income tax on salaries and wages will be deducted at the source either each week or each month, To Avoid Inflation Sir Kingsley said direct restric- tions on materials for the home market had been necessary. "It is by our exports that we must obtain the means of payment to the greatest possible extent for our im- ports of munitions, raw materials, food and other essential goods," he explained. Inflation might be fatal to suc- cessful prosecution of the war, he said, adding, "I am confident we shall be able to avoid that." He announced the ordinary in- come tax would be raised from seven shillings six pence to eight shillings six pence in the pound, or 42'% per cent. The surtax on incomes in excess of £2,000 was increased from one shilling three pence to two shill- ings in the pound and the reduced rate of tax upon the first £165 of taxable income, less personal allow- ances, was increased to five shill- ings. Estate Duties Boosted The peak rate of surtax of nine | | and an shillings six pence, a total of 90 per Levies cent, was placed on incomes above £20,000 a year, a reduction of £10,000 fh the base. Estate duties on estates exceeding £10,000 were raised 10 per cent. The Chancellor said the tax yield | in the current year would be £1234. 000,000 and the deficit to be cover- ed by savings or other means, £1,- | 432,000,000. Sir Kingsley said it was plain | that Britain's war expenditure for] the current year would be consider- ably greater, than the estimate of | £2,000,000000 made in April, with | the current rate of expenditure | £57,000,000 weekly, OTTAWA HOUSE INNEXT WEEK Morning Sittings Begin- ning on Thursday Ottawa, July 24 --Prime Minister King told 'the House he believed Parliament could be prorogued carly next week. He said morning sittings would start Thursday. Legislation yet to come includes the routine Canadian National Rall- | ays Finance Act, an act to reduce Tariff Board, amendments to thé | Prairie Farm Assistance Act and | to the Canadian Wheat Board Act, act respecting a trade | agreement with the Dominican Re- public. . Describing its set-up as "social- ism," Mr. Hanson criticized the | measure incorporating the Pool In- surance Company. The Company, operated by the | three Prairie Province wheat pools, [ cut down | seeks incorporation by the Domin- | ORILLIA FA ion Government to permit to carry | on a general insurance business throughout the Dominion, although | its sponsors have declared the only intention is to continue the busi- ness of insuring crops and the pools' property. Mr. Hanson sald this was a step toward socialism since it creates a general insurance company of which the shareholders would be the, 100,000 members of the Prairie Province pools. Arthur Slaght (Liberal, Parry Sound) suggested it was "an en- tirely dangerous principle to adopt," to set up the organization under a Dominion charter. The "nine far- mers," directors of the pools, who are listed as incorporators of the company, were to be empowered to deal in 28 kinds of insurance throughout the Dominion. Objects to Suggestion Resources Minister Crerar said he took objection to Mr. Hanson's sug- gestion that this was a 'socialist measure." It was merely an en- deavour on the part of one co- operative industrial organization to carry insurance on their own prop- erty within the regulations impos- ed by Dominion laws. It was a co-operative effort that should be encouraged. E. E. Perley (Conservative, Qu"- Appelle) said he would have to dis- agree with his leader by wholly supporting the measure which had been threshed out in committee. The bill would not introduce any form of socialism in Canada, Mr. Perley said. ROBERT SERVICE, CANADIAN POET, IS NOW IN ENGLAND London: Robert W.

These reports, however, have been authoritatively denied. It all started with apprehension of a shabbily-dressed civilian lurk- ing in the underbush near the camp. The arrest was made by Lieut. E. Chamberlain, a Montrealer who served with the Royal Cana- dian Mounted Police for several years. The prisoner, in fluent English, told of having been dropped into the woods by parachute from a Ger- man airplane with instructions to meet an "enemy confidential agent" who would supply him with funds, small arms and explosives. The man named by the prisoner as the German "go-between," his family, along with several aliens who had been billeted on his farm | cusiody. ! Investigation, however, disclos- ed that the self-confessed "para- chutist" was a deserter from the British army holding professed anti-British views: He was approp. riately. dealt with and .the o:her suspects were held for Investiga- tion.

There was | no trace of another such person. He gave a German name, claimed to be a native of Munich and to | have received special! training as a | saboteur in the German army. He { carried an imposing assortment of credentials, some of which were described as "exceedingly clever | forgeries." Near him was a bicycle, slolen from a farmhouse, Later the captive admitted he had been lying. He then claimed to be a Welshman who had joined the British army, gone to France, and been captured by the Germans While in prison camp, he said, a officer invited him to return to England for a job of sabotage, and promised to pay him | £500 at the end of the war if the mission succeeded. In the same camp, he claimed, were 300 other British prisoners. Those Who agreed to work for the Germans were given a week's train. stfucted in th ives, He sald the plane which brought him to England also carried five other parachutists, all of * whom had been dropped over woods and downlands in England.

With this as their slogan the farmers' wives of Orillia township have found time to set up within this rural municipality as com- plete and active a Red Cross or- ganization as is to be found In Canada. - Despite bread making and butter making, gardening and chicken tending, milking and mar- keting, duties which fall to the lot of the average farm woman in ad- dition to the ordinary housework every housewife has to contend with, the women of Orillia town- ship are doing their bit. The raising of money in rural municipalities like Orillia township is not a casual effort. Accordingly, when the Orillia Township Red Cross reports that it has alresdy collected nearly $150 in cash, a mark is set which represents, in terms of real labor -and sacrifice involved, much more than the mere sum named. CASE. UNIT [5 SPEARHEAD AGAINST FOE Canadian Troops Play Im- portant Role -- Set Pace for Europe With the Canadian Forces Some- where in England, July 24--In the supreme task of bolstering the Brit- ish Isles against the menace of German invasion, Canadian troops are playing a role of ever-increas- ing responsibility: The 1st Oanadian Division has been brought to such a high state of efficiency that it now forms the very spearhead of the nation's de- fensive shield. Behind this power- ful striking force stand other well- drilled units of the C.ASF. at the ready, in reserve, The Canadians have been setting the pace for the Empire's modern army in the new technique of mo- bility: and defense, an assignment allotted them by the "highest au- thority in the land." "According to those best able to assess results, the Canucks are making a first-class Job of it. For reasons of security it is im- | possible to recount movements of the Canadians. But this much can be sid: they have become more | familiar with rural England, its na- | tural protective barriers, cities, towns and roads, than most natives. Highly trained staff officers, di- recting genersl operations of the 1st Canadian Division, probably never dreamed that some day they would be working out plans of ac- tion in the nursery of an English country mansion. That is where they are. To- morrow a sudden shift may find them in an evacuated farmstead, under canvas, or in extreme emer- gency out in the open.

The accident happened when Alldred's clothes caught in the drive wheel of the crusher he was oper- ating on the county highway four miles north of Oakwood. Alldred, an employee of the coun- ty, was attempting to tighten a | grease cup when a small set screw caught in his open overalls and he, was carried around bodily about six times, before the machine could be stopped.
