The Spanish war has been dragging on with greater horrows and growing evidence international complications. Shakespeare wrote many lines that may be applied to modern events. In Macbeth there are three lines that might be quoted in connection with the war ' Spain: 'T think our country sinks beneath the yoke; "It weeps, it bleeds, and each day a gash "Is added to her wounds." The first anniversary of the of George V was passed with little remark. During the year, ward VIII came to the throne and resigned his claim to it. In his place, George VI became king; and in the few months that he has reigned he has - established himself firmly i respect and trust of his subjects Last January, Franklin Delano Roosevelt was formally inaugurated as President of the United States for a second term. This was a change from the usual procedure, for the President has hitherto been ina ated in March. The weatfier on guration day was, however, the that is usually experienced on that occasion. The people in Washington stood under shelters that had been constructed to withsand the weight of four feet of snow. The snow did fall, but the shelters helped to set the people from a steady downpour of rain. The President ad<-ded to his popularity by riding through the deluge in an open car from the Capitol to the White House. The United States occupied the front page of our newspapers with terrible Missippi floods. The en accounts of its depredations unbelievable; the pictures, incredible. And yet the floflod occurred and the effect of it will be felt m the Mississippi States for many mon- Then, too, the last three .months have been marked by the "sit-down" strikes which have come into vogue as the latest method employed by labour in its struggle with capital. of our Canadian factories have felt the movement. Of recent international events, the ost interesting in a serious vein is e outbreak of rioting in Paris last week. Whether that street-flghtng wilf develop into anything of moment for EjlXflOe and the world remains to hPi And the most amusing international^ event of recent months is the spat between La Guardia and the German newspapers. That is a subject worthy of the best efforts of Punch. These are a very few olf recent outstanding events. So much has happened that only the highlights can be mentioned. So much happening in the world. And so much work here in our own High School to prepare ourselves to be intelligent citi Greater Consumption of Cheese in Scotland Improvement in industrial condl-ions in Scotland is bringing about greater consumption of cheese. Last >ar Canada supplied more cheese to icotland than for any year since sta-have been available, the in-rease amounting to 31 per cent, over previous year, according to the gricultural Department of the Can-dian National Railways.

Aviati its best is a safer means of travel than by private automobile at its worst years. The commercial bus is safer than either. In spite of the fact that during December 1936. January and February 937 there have been 5 crashes re-ulttng in the deaths of 37 passengers ankl crew, there is no occasion to change our belief that transportarion hrough the air will ultimately be made as safe as on land or water. In this machine-age. the wildest speculation as to what may accomplished is apt io be si in a short time by sober fact. No | one could have foretold a few years | ago the advances made by aviation j any more than the shoemaker a cen-1 tury ago could have predicted that J a. machine would make 80 pairs ofd shoes in the same time a cobbler' could make one. One brick-making machine can turn out as many bricks as 710 brickmakers. The latest mechanical digger, which shifts 18 cubic feet per heave, can clean out 30,000 cubic yards in a twenty-four hour day and do the work of 15,000 men. The Great Pyramid used to be reckoned one of the Wonders of the World. It took 100,000 slaves 20 years to build it. But a modern engineer, provided with giant cranes and dynamite could, with the aid of 1000 men, build it in 5 years. The story is told that Maude Roy-den the famous divine, was watching a mechanical excavator scoop up cartloads of earth at every sweep when beside her a man expressed the regret that that monster was taking away the work of thousands of laborers aimed with picks and shovels. "Or millions and mSllions with tea-spoons," was -Miss Royden's reply. The machine is a factor in unemployment, but the solution of the unemployment problem _ is not found in scrapping machine- Butter wrappers at Express Office.) The first reports in the High School had it the pati c Railway, which : premiere under ;e of Her Majesty .Mary, and Mrs. Stanley in, in London recently, and Canadian premiere in Mont-1, and which depicts one of the . important chapters in the history of the British Commonwealth of Nations, will be shown in theatres from coast to coast during the current month. The story, based on Alan Sullivan's book "The Great Divide," brings back and vitalizes the titanic struggle with nature waged by the giants of pioneer railroading in this- country, and particularly in the seemingly impossible task of thrusting the road through the Rocky Mountain barrier. The story has a tremendous Canadian historical value, as well as being first rate entertainment. The film, a Gaumont British production, was made at Revelstoke, B.C., and in the surrounding mountain area. It includes such great stars as Richard Arlen, Barry MacKay, Antoinette Cellier, Lilli Palmer, and J. Farrell MacDonald. In it the men who would not acknowledge defeat again play their parts. The lay-out shows a re-enact- ment of the historic scene when Sir John MacDonald pledged the support of his Government to the enterprise. Left to right are shown George Stephen, William Van Home, R. B. Angus, Sir John MacDonald, T. G. Shaughnessy and Donald Smith. Picture No. 2 shows one of the tense moments of the play and is a scene between Richard Arlen and Lilli
