many headaches, as one mn{ surâ€" mise, with so many "young bloods" to contend with. %uring the camp period, the routine followed as near as possible to navy regulations,, with the whole ship‘s company broken up into four watches. Each duty watch started the day. at 0630 and were not relieved until 1600, when the new watch took over. Those off duty had a full day ahead of them with swimming sailing, boat pullir_lfil, signals, and various . sports. e â€" swimming sessions included classes for swimâ€" mers, fair swimmers, and nonâ€" swimmers, the latter having a fine beach for their instruction, and beâ€" fore the camp closed, there were only a handful of the younger lads who did not qualify for their swimâ€" mers‘ badge. The sailing periods had classes for cutter uiliug‘ dinghy sailing, and instructors course. Twelive of the boys qualiâ€" fied as sailing instructors, which permitted them to take out a dinghy with their crew; no dinghys were allowed out unless accomâ€" panied by an officer or qualified instructor. In the boat pulling classes the boys were taught the seamanship of handling the oars of both cutters and whalers. The signals classes were held in the evening, though RT system was in operation 24 ‘hours a day where constant communication was kept with the Princess Alice Camp at Minnicog Island, _ _ The following cadets, who were successful in passing their sailing instructors‘ course, Leuding Seaâ€" man Dolman, Leading Seaman Meads, Leading Bandsman Blandâ€" ford, Petty Officer Johnston, Chief Petty Officer Boak, Petter Officer Bird, Leading Bandsman Moffat, Petty Officer Steventon, Petty Officer Saint, Petty Officer Dawâ€" son, Bandsman Hewitt and Bandsâ€" man Wymess, are to be compliâ€" mented on this achievement. Tgey have shown : exceptionally fine leadershig with their ability to master the art of dinghy sailing, and to instruct and pass this inâ€" formation on to their fellow cadets. At 2100 the boys were served bread and fsm and kye (hot chocoâ€" late to all land lubbers), during which fieriod the song session was very a l}{econducted by the camp En?;-e, v. Kingsl{ Joblin, and is aqueeze box. When 2200 came around, a general sigh of relief was to be heard from the officers who were more ready to turn in than the boys, except for a couple of the younger ones, who, true to navy fashion, lost no time in strikâ€" ing up the acquaintance of the fairer sex, not far from the camp. Approximately 90 men, which inâ€" cluded officers, were &t camp this genr, and this also includeg one ivision from Lanéstaff, which is part of Weston‘s Corps, With so many at camp this year, and the full program, the corps is to be On visitors‘ day we were happy to entertain the parents and friends of the boys. The guests were shown over the camp, and later refreshments were served in the officers‘ ward room. The favorâ€" able comments and letters of apâ€" preciation received later from parâ€" ents, were most grltifging to the officers, who were afflicted with The two weeks at Queen Elizaâ€" beth Camp, on Beausolie! Island, in the Georfiim Bay District, has been voted the best outing for the boys yet, and the officers who were in charge were highly pleased with the accomplishments and disâ€" cipline _ throughout their â€" stay there. The two outstanding events at camp were the sports regatta and visitors‘ day. Our boys, some of whom have just passed their sailing instructors‘ test this season, put on an expert show of dinghy sailing with seven boats in the race, Leading Bandsman Jim Mofâ€" fat won the race, and brought home the Minnicog Cup to Queen Elizabeth Camp. So far as the officer‘s race is concerned, the least said about that, the better! ‘With Navy Week over, all Sea Cadets will now be mkh’ plans for a bu{ season, and this fou in no small way g‘ our own local boys of RCSC Corps "Illustrious." For soce weeks now, residents have been conscious of our boys‘ trainâ€" ing nights with their band on the streets of Weston, and we can feel quite proud of their accomplishâ€" ments as prize winners at the reâ€" cent Waterloo competitions. Apâ€" {mpriaee awards are to be made to he ship‘s company on a special occasion in the near future, at which time the public will be notiâ€" fied, This season calls for a more extensive program of work and enâ€" tertainment which both officers and men look forward to, and parâ€" ents, who have their own boys in the Corps, are asked to see that they keer up regular attendance on their drill nights. _ _ "Illustrious" Plan Busy Season Local Sea Cadets Of R.C.S.C.

Monday Through Friday Nora Frances Henderson, Hamilâ€" ton Controller and pioneer in chilâ€" dren‘s aid work, says the greatest danger to successful welfare work is the complacent belief that an obâ€" ligation to one‘s neighbor can be liquidated by payment of a tax bill. Mrs. Henderson was speaking to a gathering of welfare workers in Simpson‘s Red Feather theatre. Modern life seems to become complicated to many people, Mrs. Henderson â€" said, p‘rtiauanly as people see a tendency toward govâ€" ernments entering the field of social services. Despite the importâ€" ance that governments can render in direct aid, nothi could ever remove the inequaH‘a‘ea of nature or remedy the calamities of fate, she said, which rendered it obvious that till the end of time the comâ€" passion of "the man or woman next door" would be the greatest factor in restoring courage and aiding the overburdened. The Commanding Officer, Lieut. Cmdr. J. M. Moffat, and his staff, are to be complimented for the time and effort that they have given, not only to cadet work durâ€" ing the year, but on spending part, or all of their summer holidays with cadets at camp. A total of ten of the local officers attended camp to make Beausolie!l Island Camg period 1946, one of the outâ€" standing events in the four years of the corps‘ operation. Too much cannot be said by the officers and men of the corps in respect to the splendid coâ€"operaâ€" tion 81ven by the Camp Commandâ€" ing Officer, Lieut,. Ross McDiarâ€" mid, and his staff, Due to their attention and management, the stay at Queen Eliazbeth Camp was a most enjoyable holiday for all, and their efforts were heartily apâ€" preciated. On the evening prior to breakinf camp, the corps was entertained by Lieut. Mc!?ilrmid and his staff to a kye and weiner roast, supplemented by a huge bonâ€" fire, which was greatly :pgrecilt/ed by all. The only two ladies offiâ€" cially at the camp, and sincerely appreciated for their efforts, were Nursing Sister Dolan, who looked after all the campâ€"ills, and Miss Underwood, the dietitian, who was a very popular person, since she was responsible for the food. Both these ladies were entertained for dinner at the ward room by the officers, before leaving, as a mark of appreciation for their efforts. On August 11, at 1200 the ‘City of Dover‘ docked at the camp jettg', and the corps said goodâ€"bye to Beausoliel, hoping that another year would see them back again. Believe it or not, that was the only day it rained during camp; even the weather shed a few tears at parting. At Midland the boys met the TTC busses which had transported them to camp, and at supper time, they were back home, tellinf their experiences of a wonâ€" derful summer at camp.

The "Canada Air Eet- ter" rate will remain at 10¢ to the United Kingdom, Northern Ireland, and Eire, and 15c to those counâ€" tries beyond Britain to which serâ€" vice is given. The rate for "Canâ€" ada Air Letters" addressed to members of the armed forces, reâ€" gar]:lless of destination, is 10c each. With a new rate set at 10 cents, there will also be an appreciable reduction in the postage on mail from Canada to all South American €ountries, ranging up to 15c an item., The 10c per (iuarter ounce rate now in force will continue to a‘gp]y to British Guiana, Mexico, the West Indies, Bermuda, Cuba and Central America, including the Canal Zone. It will be possible to mail a quarâ€" ter ounce letter to China, including Manchuria, for just 25¢, instead of 60c as at present. The 25¢ rate will also apply tosa quarter ounce letter addresked th the Philippines and Guam, the resgcective charges were previously 75c and 6be fi)r each half ounce. The 25¢ rate at least halves the cost of sending an air mail letter to any country where air mail serâ€" vice «operates in the following zonesâ€"Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and the Orient, and the Paciâ€" fic area including Australia and New Zealand. To reap full advantage of the savings in air mail, coâ€"operation is essential in making sure that letâ€" The new rates will at least cut in half the{resent cost of air mail letters to Europe, Africa, Austraâ€" lia, New Zealand, and many counâ€" tries in Asia. To illustrate the material cut in charges that the public will now enjoy, it will be possible to send a normal letter, written on lightâ€" weight paper, to the United Kingâ€" dom and Europe, for only 15c compared to the 30c per half ounce charge now in force. It is the policy of the Canadian Post Office Department to pass on to the Canadian public any benefits of this kind and the reâ€" duction of the present half ounce air mail weight unit to one quarter of an ounce has enabled the Deâ€" partment to introduce more attracâ€" tive rates. 40 i Pig c t t t i c The Congress confirmed the esâ€" tablishment of an air mail unit of weight of 5 grammes for those countries using the metric system, and the nearest equivalent to 5 grammes : for other countriesâ€" which is one quarter ounce in the case of Canada. n i Eve an added imrt\u to Canadian usiness and will also be advantâ€" ageous to private citizens mailing by air to Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia, and mnnK countries of the Western Hemisphere. oa Reduced postage on air mail from Canada to countries in every quarter of the globe will become effective on November 1st, the Honourable Ernest Bertrant, K.C., MP., Postmaster General of Canâ€" ada, has announced. â€" The reduction grows out of the recent â€" Congress of the Postal Union of the Americas and SE:in attended by the Postmaster Genâ€" eral at Rio de Janeiro, when the xufion of reduced air mail arges was to the fore. _ Tell Of Reduced Air Mailâ€"Rates © To All Countries 54 MAIN N. § EXPERT TAILORING and REPAIRS LADIES‘ and GENTS‘ GARMENTS CLEANED and STORED STORAGEâ€"FURS at 2% of their value. lowering of postage will All Garments Insured Against Fire, Theft or Damage WESTON CLEANERS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR GOODS LEFT OVER 60 DAYS fay J. HAWE ters are kept well within the quarter ounce weight limit, otherâ€" wise items will have to be rated at double the deficiency. The advantage, therefore, of uing air mail stationery for correspondence is apparent. Under the quarter ounce weight unit a letter may be mailed consisting of two sheets of lightâ€"weight paper, written on both sides, and enclosed in a lightâ€" weight envelope. As a special facility a mailer who is unable to obtain lightâ€"weight stationery necessary to keep the weight withâ€" in a quarter ounce, may use a "Canada Air Letter" form. Such a form, however, must be correctly prepaid at the air mail rate to the country of destination, if such country is not already within the scope of the Canada Air Letter form service. The Men‘s Club of Weston Presâ€" byterian church open their fall and winter activities with one of their characteristic meetings and dinners on Tuesday evening next, Novemâ€" ber 5. For this occasion, Thomas Richard Henry, wellâ€"known columnâ€" ist of the Toronto Evenini Teleâ€" gram, and prominent lawn bowler, will be guest speaker. He has twenty years as a journalish behind him, so his listeners may be sure of hearing an interesting and diversified address. _ _ "The Club Men‘s" male quartette will be present to assist in the musical part of the grogram. The usual sing song will be lead by Mr. Jack Atkinson, provincial field commissioner of the Boy Scouts, and will introduce a number of group songs used by the Boy Scouts. As an additional function to the evening‘s events, immediâ€" ately after dinner, camp awards will be presented to the Scouts of the ‘Third Weston group. This group is sponsored by the Men‘s Club and the awards were won by the boys at their recent summer camp. Eobeon c3 21 e an _ Dinner will be served at 6.30 sharp.

Perhaps you‘ve heard it. It‘s brisk RCMP officials disclosed that a second series of the fake bills have appeared in Toronto. At least one note has been located with the first digit of the serial number as "4" instead of the "3" on notes reâ€" covered previously. _ _ _ _ Police officials said the distriâ€" bution threatened to become one of the greatest cases of counterfeitâ€" ing in Canada in several years and probably will equal the case of the $50 spurious notes of 10 or 15 years ago. An RCMP circular says the counterfeit notes bear a close reâ€" semblance to the correct color. The most noticeable discrepancy is the coarseness of the engraving and the fact that the reproduction of the King‘s head has several imâ€" perfections. A close examination reveals that the sharpness around the eyes has been lost and the left one appears black. _ § All the bills located to date have the rirst three serial numbers 381 preceded by the letters "L" over "C." The remaining four digits are different on all bills found so far. On several of the notes the last numbers are not in line with the first three or are in an upâ€"andâ€" down arrangement. They are also printed in a. deeper red than reguâ€" lar bank notes. Other sections of the face of the bills have a tenâ€" dency to appear slightly gray. _ A good quaity rag paper has been used, officials nig. It lacks the planchettes or tiny round colored dots found scattered in regular governmentâ€"made note paper.. "Dangerous" counterfeit $5 bills are now circulating in Toronto, RCMP officials warn. At least 100 of the fake notes have been discovered but it is feared a great many niore may be irt the hands of unsuspecting persons. . _ The reverse side is not so easily distinguished from _ government issued money.
