uni‘orm member Division through On the tour of the North this month, the RCAF. (Women‘s Division) Preâ€" cision Squadron will present a display that will bring the greatest admiration and appreciation. Perhaps, the greatâ€" est compliment they have received, and possi‘bly the greatest praise that could be given, is that they go through the drill movements as well, if not better than the RCA.F. Squad that won inâ€" ternational fame. There is no question but that the RCA.F. (Women‘s Divisâ€" ion) Precision Squadron gives a display of most remarkable kind. This Women‘s Precision Squad has been touring Ontario in recent weeks on behalf of the Victory Loan and every where they have appeared they have won the most sincere applause and commendation.

There the Squadron captured all and probably did more than any single other factor to win admiration and friendship for Canada among the people of the States visited. The RCA.F. Precision Squad was so skilfully trained and had the drilis so remarkably well learned that they went through close to 150 drill movements without a command being given audiâ€" bly. The only command spoken was at the opening of the drill, officers and men then following the whole intricate drill from beginning to end without the necessity for another command or remindeéer of any kind.

Occurences of this mineral were first found in August by F. E. Folinsbee of the Dominion Geolâ€" ogical Survey, who has| visited many mines in a search for it and other tungsten minerals. During his examâ€" ination of the mine relatively small quantities of the mineral were found. Since then the Company has procured an ultraâ€"violet ray lamp and other special equipment and the Geological staff has carried on a search with notâ€" able success.

First, due to rapid expansion of industrial towns there is a need for new or increased accommodation in many centres. No one can tell how long such facilities may be needed, so muni. cipal authorities are in a difficult posâ€" ition. On the other hand many schools already in existence have much reduced attendance. Secondly there is a grave shortage of teachers due to enlistments industrial work in every available school shop.
