War declared against Italy on June 10th by proclamation after unâ€" animous approval of both the House of Commons and <the Senate. "Rule Britannia ! rule fixe wave !" When Queen warrior, Boadicea, Bleeding from the Roman.rods, Called her Druid priests around her, Seeking counsel of their gods. ‘"Britain‘s enemies shall perish," Said a hoary Druid priest. With a voice vibrate with anger, And a heart o‘ercharged with grief. There will always be an England, It is written in the stars, As a warning to those nations. Who invoke the god of Mars. ‘There will always be an England, While the waves of oceans roll. For no weapon ever can be forged To conquer England‘s soul. Summary During another: historic week the tempo of war preparations and acâ€" complishments was accelerated. ‘The principal steps of which Canada has approved are shown briefly in the following summary. There will always be an England, While the waves of ocean roll, For no weapon ever can be forged, To conquer England‘s soul. The glorious flame of Liberty, That beacons England‘s dales, By tyranny can ne‘er be quenched, While God in Heaven prevails. When from the azure ocean, First arose proud Britain‘s'stand. A charter was presented . By an angel guardian‘s hand. And down throughout the ages, She has kept that charter brave, Attuned to martial music. ‘ ’ The terrific German offensive enâ€" croaching on the heart of France. with Paris captured, has brought that nation to her knees, and she has apâ€" plied for an honorable peace to Gerâ€" many which the Nazis will surely reâ€" fuse and demand unconditional surâ€" render. France is bowever, still fightâ€" ing on but her eclipse is a matter of days. Britain and the Empire will carry on alone, with material U. S. aid, against the Axis powers, until their tyranny is overthrown. THERE‘LL ALWAYS Che Burfue Rrview ./: P. RAMAGE. Editor and Proprieter Nati CANADA‘S WAR EFFORT FRANCE FALTERING BE AN ENGLAND THE DURHAM REVIEW Miss Mary Blank, a~ Batesvillc belle of 20 summers, is visiting her twin brother William, aged 32.° An Arkansas editor recently showâ€" ed his genius when he wrote: the following item for ‘his paper: And yet parents wonder why their children can‘t study and | listen to radio at the same time ! Aren‘t people â€" gueer *â€"Bystander, in Sunâ€" The radio is a â€" wonderful invenâ€" tion and a source of much enjoyâ€" ment and some education. Homeâ€" work is a "necessary evil." Theorâ€" etically, there shouldn‘t be any; but teachers have a little way of expectâ€" ing their pupils to keep up to date with the lessons, so that it is advis~‘ able for the pupils to do some readâ€" ing at home. But homework and radio programmes will not mix; and when it comes to a contest beâ€" tween them, the radio programme usually wins. But is not everyone who can do that and keep it up. Unless one has the power to close all his faculâ€" ties to everything but the one thing, the disturbing element is go ing to creep in and make the main job less perfect than it should be. Yet I‘ve seer boys and girls, supposed to be doing their homework, keeping one ear open for the wiseâ€"cracks of some radio comedianâ€"and getting most of them. I‘m not sayinig how the homework made out; but I‘ve a pretty good guess. In my own caseâ€"if you will parâ€" don the personal referenceâ€"when I bave anything to do which requires concentration I don‘t want anything else to come in interrupting my train of thought. And I don‘t think I‘m different from the average. I have known people who could work along through a veritable babel of outâ€" side noises â€" I‘ve done it myself when I had to â€" but they were not listening to outside noises; they were concentrating on the work in hand and actually did not hear the other noises. f And see how much of either you have absorbed at the end of the hour or halfâ€"hour. Not much of either; practically nothing of whit you have been trying to read. Try it yourself some time. _ Turn the radio on good and strong; then pick up a bookâ€"I don‘t care what it isâ€"whether it‘s a mystery story or an erudite work on some metaphysiâ€" cal subjectâ€"and try to read it while you are listening to the music or the address coming in over the air. No reason why anyone should wonâ€" der at that; the reason for failâ€" ures is selfâ€"evident. It is purely a case of divided attention. No one can do two things at once and do both well. ~ At a meeting of school teachers some time ago the principal of St. Catharines Collegiate Institute, W. J. Salter, made a statement that may eurprise some but should not surâ€" prise anyone. Ninety per cent. of the students in the first forms of his Collegiate Institute, he said. have radios in their homes and 55 per.cent. of them try to study while the radio is going full blastâ€"and then parents wonder why their sons and daughters fail at the June exâ€" aminations. 11. Engaged to spend over $52,â€" 000,000 immediately on the British Commonwealth Air Training plan in the preparation of larding fields and buildings. 10. The House of Commons apâ€" pointed a committec to consider the Defence of Canada regulations ana to suggest penalties for those con:â€" victed of subversive acts. 9. Gave authority to recruit four forestry companies and four railway companies for service overseas.. 8. Authorized the registration of all aliens of German and Italian origin who have become naturalized since September 1, 1929. . Approved regulations providing for the fingerâ€" printing or other forms of identiâ€" fication of such persons. Further reâ€" quired all such (persons having fireâ€" arms to surrender them. 6. Appointed Consul and ‘Viceâ€" Consul to Greenland and arranged for the supplies necessary to the maintenance of ccornomic life on that Island. 7. Approved contracts for supplies covering a total ‘expenditure of $3,673,028. 5. Directed attention of British authorities to unused industrial ‘reâ€" sources of Canada. 4. Approved construction, in asâ€" sociation with the French and Britâ€" ish Governments of two munition plants to cost $20,000,000. 2. Hon J. L. Ralston, Minister of Finance appointed to be Minister of National _ Defence, following the death of Hon. Norman Rogers, killed in an aeroplane crash. 3. Accepted an order for 300 tanks for the British forces. HOMEWORK TO RADIO TORONTO Crosley 5 tube Electric radio for sale: cheap. Apply at Review Office. What should the farmer produce ?
