pa B= : ' Ireland's War- . . i Time Attitude Pro-British Sentiment ls In- creasing in Ireland, says the New York Post If Hitler tries to invade England ho will undoubtedly attick Eire at the same time, The invasion might even begin with a landing in Eire aimed to gecure a roundabout step- ping stone, ; Eire says she will fight if Hiller attacks; and of course she will. But because Eire has stuck to an isola- ~ tionist policy of neutrality, neither 'Britain nor the United States has been willing to give her arms. She would fight, but' even. Irishmen can't meet panzer divisions with their bare hands. : » Therefore dispatches telling of the rapid growth of pro-British sentiment among the Irish are ex- cellent news. It is estimatea that mofe than 80 per cent.-of the péople are pro-British, and that a 'small group within the Eire gov- ernment is tying to persuade De __ Valera to ask' fhe. United States for protection against the Naz} threat. It is highly unlikely (that we would help Eire as long as sho're- - fuses to let Hritain use 'her naval bases. But every step should be taken to help Eire take her proper ~ place in the alliance against Hitler, Perhaps the change in Irish sentl ment has been pronounced enough to 'permit anti-Nazi co-operation between England, Eire and the Un- ited States, 3 Let's find out, We can think of no better way to begin the inquiry than an invitation from President Roosevelt to Permier de Valera to meet and talk things over, : "How Doth The Little Busy Bee" Migratory Beekeepers Engage In One of Strangest' Occu- pations * Most humans have [inished~thelr annual vacations, but the bees are just starting theirs. The white clo- ver has matured and the honey is in the hive: rbady for harvest. With no more nectar to gather, the bees go into hibernation, But in the south the season ls turned about. Men negaged in one of 'the strangest occupations in . the country are getting ready to start another year. These are the 'migratory beekeepers, 'men who literally drive 'colonies of bees across the country, Using big trucks stacked with hives, the beekeepers follow the blossoming cycle through the south and. southwest. They start in the orange groves, then go on to clover, alfalfa and sage, These men raise bees for the honey harvest. Another. odd occupation is rais- . ing "package bees." is done in the south, for the bene- fit of the whole country, These bees are lMterally "packaged" and sold by the pound for shipment to farms at the proper season, so that crops may be pollenated. -Orchardists are among the greatest users, A ftive-pound package will con- tain 'more than 20,000 bees and' gells for $4 or so witout a queen. A queen costs about $1 more. A standard hive of bees will contain six or eight pounds at the start of the season, / Get Coal Now Or Go Without Canadians are warned by the coal administrator of the Wartime Prices and Trade Board to order their Winter's fuel immediately, if they want to be sure of ade- quate supplies of coal. Despite the appeal for early buying issued in June by Coal Administrator J. McG, Stewart, Summer coal deliveries in urban areas of Ontario and Quebec were below the totals for the corresponding months of. 1940, "Munitions, which are being shipped in ever increasing vol- ume, must have the first call on out transportation systems, and " "there will be less space available "in. future for purely civilian . goods,"' explained the coal admin- istrator, "By placing your order _ for coal mow; even' though im- mediate delivery may not be pos- . gible in all cases, you will enable 'the Government to make the tnost efficient uge of, all transportation facilities." vl.

More Objectors Join The Army Increasing numbers of consci- entious objectors are getting over their objections? to military "serv- jee after a taste of camp life In the work camps set up for them. This development is attributed in part to the treatment of nien who refuse to bear arms for re- ligious reasons and who, instead, are put to work at 50 cents a day and their board. From one work camp 12 men left to join the active army in two days. In one military district 99 Mennonites, the largest of the religious groups which regard-the taking of human life under any- circumstances as sinful, are go- ing into military. training camps, many of them without trying out, the alternative of service in the labor camps.

They were put to use in the very first moments of the war and have been more or less stead- ily employed ever since. It is im- possible to measure the effect they may have had.
