With the United States alone declaring its ability to turn out 35,000 aeroplanes engines . every year, and Britain, Germany and France in full swing, not to mention Canâ€" ada, the question arises, "What will happen to all these machines after the war"" Will all the nations beâ€" come airâ€"minded ?

It was waterproofed with a special material, and the ink left no stain. There passed away in Vancouver, B. C. at her residence, 250â€"13th Ave. on August 27th, Mrs Chas. M. McDougall, aged 72 years. Mrs Mcâ€" Dougall will be remembered as Charâ€" lotte Lunney of Bentinck. Besides her husband, she is survived by one daughter, Mrs Stanley Bird of Bellâ€" ingham, Wash., also one sister, Mrs Jas. Brunt of Mulock. Private services were conducted Aug. 29 from Mount Pleasant Chapel by Rev. H. C. Phillips of Ruth Morâ€" ton Baptist Church, and interment was in lawn section of Mountair View Cemetery. MRS. CHAS. M. McDOUGALL THE DURHAM REVIBW Che Burkgum Aeview In one year, under the new plan, approximately 300,000 men will have received initial military . training. These 300,000 men are to be regardâ€" ed as the vanguard of a mighty Canadian Army which will be availâ€" able to defend this country. There are difficulties in withdrawâ€" ing so many men from normal life of the community even for the comâ€" paratively short period of training but difficulties cannot be allowed to obscure the goal to be reached. ‘This is the beginning, not the end, of a policy. The plan has been workâ€" ed out so that it can be . speededâ€"up or slowed down ~as events require. There are difficulties, also, in building quarters and manufacturing the equipment for this citizen army. Every effort is being made to guard against failure on either count. One of the difficuities of: the scheme is the shortage of competent instructors to train these . men. Several thousand instructors will be needed. The problem has been foreâ€" seen and some schools have already been established. The instructors are being drawn from N.PS‘.M. units and exâ€"service men. This policy has been evolved to manes #he minimum dislocation to industry, The rule will be that there can be no exceptions. Any postponements must be 80 arranged that ° everyone | within the groups called who is physically fit, must undergo training within a year. Physical fitness is defined as everyâ€" P. RAMAGE.
