completely upset the Nazis. P. T. Mo‘sley introduced the guest sneaker for the day. Incidentally he The speaker‘s description of D Day was a thrilling one. He referred to the array of planes that constantly strafed the Nazis, and the comâ€" paratively poor resistance offered by the Nazi air power. After referring to an English commander, who took risks gladly and with a touch of humour, he referred to the work of a â€" Norwegian commander under whom he served. He did the work with rare skill and daring, but there was not a touch of recklessness about it. "It was a beautiful job," the speaker said, "with not a single In describing D Day, the speaker paid tribute to the work of the Navy and the gallant resourcefulâ€" worked together in a way In the earlier days each plane seemâ€" ed to be on its own, but soon they had them travelling as squadrons, each depending on the other and helping the other. This was more effective because che ecffective trainâ€" ing had made them more experiencâ€" ed, more reliable. He had â€" great praise for a Nova Scotia commandâ€" or under whom he served. "He was the bravest man I think I have ever known, yet he took noâ€" unnecessary changes, but his leadership was most effective." Wing Commander Godefâ€" roy contrasted the 1941 situation with that of a couple of years later. In 1941 there was the No. 1 Spitfire, but the Germans had machines that were more effective because they could travel faster and go higher. Toâ€" day there are No. 21 Spitfires, cach one being an improvement over the number below it. British and Canaâ€" dian planes can now go up 40,000 feet He spoke of some of the squadrons in which he served. "Everybody knew in their hearts that th2y could] fully depend on everybogy eiss, he; said. | In opening his ~address, ‘Wing Commander Godefroy told how he went overseas in early 1941 with roâ€" mantic ideas about smashing the enemy and bringing the war to an early conclusion. He found in Engâ€" land, however, that they did not se? romance in the war, though they kept their sense of humour. War for them, however, was a very serious business. The Huns saw to that, but they could not break the British spirit or quench their odd sense â€" of humour. He tojd an amusing inciâ€" dent " about visiting ‘a ‘cafe when a fisrce blitz was on.

The speakâ€" er said that hs> thought that he hag learned the air combat game, but he soon found out that thers many difficulties to be overcome. His first training was with No. Hurricanes. Incidentally, heâ€" remarkâ€" ed, that only once did he see a Gerâ€" man aircraft over England, so well did the R.A.F. do its work with less ¢ffective equipment than the Huns. He. told of the price paid in those early days. On his first "sweep" he was the only one of three to return safely to. his base. In one week elevâ€" en pilots were lost out of eighteen. Oue of the difficulties he had was to shoot effectively. It was a matter of close science to hit a target travâ€" elling .at 300 or 4C0 miles per hour. were. 1. In his address to the Timmins Kiâ€" wanis Club at the weekly luncheon on Monday, Wing Commander Hugh C. Godefroy, D.S.O.. D.F.C. and Bar, who was here for the Air Cudet inâ€" spection at the McIntyre Rink on Monday night, concluded with the thought that the world should avoid any future wars of the kind now in its closing stages. ‘‘This war," he said, "can not be compared with a cricket match at all. There is no fair play, no chivalry. The Huns would do anything and there was no room on the other side for sportsmanship. It iss too much of a luxury to have a war every twenty years, Modern war is a mean, dirty business." He illusâ€" trated his thought along this line by pointing out that a rocket bomb killed men, women and children, civâ€" ilians, everyone within reach .of its villainous power. The "Earthquake bomb," he said, ‘"if dropped here would kill every man, woman and child in the place." These bombs were simply terrific. He made it clear that with all the wonderful inventions of science, the world might be destroyed with the remarkâ€" ablse things we have created. He leaned to understatement _ rather than overâ€"emphasis, but he made it very plain that it was the duty of all, and no more than common sense and self protection to make such plan that there would be no more wars.

Council has not seen fit to emphasize this fact, though the tctal Ontario grants to the schools is shown on the tax bills as required by law. However, as the previous school grants are not shown, there is no basis for comparison. Several have called attention to the matter, but there has been no apparent intention on the part of the town council to make it clear why with greatly increased grants for education there has not been a material reduction in the tax rate. The Public School Board has received a number of enquiries in the matter, and in fairness to all concerned the Board has issued the following explanation: ; _ > ‘"The Timmins Public School Board consider it advisable to bring to the attention of the Public School taxpayers the reasons why, that in view of the increased grants from the provincial government, the Public School tax rate has. not . been substantially reducedâ€"this year, ~_Whereas the provincial Agrant. to the Board in 1944 amounted to $11,275.48 and it is estimated that it will a m _ o sttA aso e _ Lo hi Col.
