It brought back mem- fories of night 70 years ago, when he, our late brother, Will, and I all occu- , pied the one seat in school and 'twas l quite a task at writing time to find : room for copy books and three exten- l ded elbows. It reminded us, also, when, _ one quiet afternoon, the young tea- . cher from Durham called “Jack Lau- l der, Tom Jack come forward!” The big husky lad, quite unaware of what was to take place, quickly drew a new rawhide whip from his desk and gave them 14 lashes on each hand. They never flinched, but there wasn’t ”la pupil present, but. felt like lamming ,h - - - out of that teacher. Years af- ter he became a minister, rented one ,of Tom’s homes to spend his vacation ibut Tom hadn’t forgotten the school affair and querried the reason for the flogging. Well, he slowly replied, “I was partly to blame, the school reported as an unruly one, but ’twasl a prejudiced ratepayer had advisedi me, if I gave you and Jack Lauder a‘ "‘good trimming” I’d have no trouble' l'with the rest". “Well”, responded Tom, “I always said to myself, if I ever get a [a chanceJll pay it back with interest, . 'but seeing you’re a minister and ex- ,plained I’ll forget it.” s (Intended for Last Week) l The blow fell!

After serving his apprenticeship he purchased all of his ("lupitijv'm"s property and for fifty-one years has won a reputation for first- elass work that brought patronage from far and near. As a shoer of hor- ses he had few equals and his honest. and fair dealings with the public won him a wide circle of patronage and many friends.

MISCELLANEOUS IN MEMORIAM L‘HE DURHAM, ONTARIO, CHRONICLE Traverston Mr. Churchill said he had lost, con- fidence in the reconstituted Polish government in London, and announced he would back Russia’s demands for revision of the Russian-Polish bound- ary, giving the Soviet title to all ter- ritories east of the old Curzon Line. In return, Poland would be given all The Polish problem came to the forefront again as Prime Minister Churchill in a historic address before the British House of Commons warned that if the United Stflates Russia and Britain could not reach an agreement in this and othei matters and would damage all hopes ‘for the future structure of world government." In troubled Greece, fighting has slackened off a trifle in Athens where British authorities are continuing ne- gotiations with the Leftist E.A.M. for- ces in an attempt to solve the knotty problem of establishing a represent- ative government in the recently-lib- erated country. Many were drawn from the Royal 22nd Regiment of Montreal, and a number now are back in Canada, wearing the Croix de Guerre with palms given them by the French go- vernment. From a Canadian viewpoint, most exciting news of the week was the announcement of the part played in the cracking of the German’s vaunted West Wall by a group of young French-Canadian officers. The offi- cers were dropped by parachute into occupied France before D-Day to or- ganize and lead bands of French Ma- quis in special tasks which had to be done before the main blow was struck. The men were veterans of the Sicily and Italy campaign, and all volun- teered for the hazardous task. 1 1 ican forces were launching full-scale attacks against German bridgeheads across the Boer River west of Duren, while German forces were repulsing these assaults in spirited counter-at- tacks, according to Berlin radio re- War Commentary (Continued from Page I) WM.
