(Continued on page 4) ` sacnou 1 PAGES 1 TO 8 UUUIU U Illa Because of the holiday coming on Monday, the regular meeting of the Board was held on Friday night fol- lowing the committee meeting. There was little business before the house and the Finance Committee was the `onlv one to present a report. MW rlivurnnrl nah-I 1:35 I1`-\:nn` 3n Warning that something be done to relievethe congestion in the Collegiate Institute before another! year was sounded by Principal Gird- wood at the meeting of the Board of; Education last Friday night. The: `present registration of over 470 will] be increased to over 500 next year, Mr. Girdwood estimates, and the pro- portion of pupils to teachers is 36, . whereas the Department of Educa- tion stipulates that it should be 25.` The proper remedy would be to add awing to the rear of -the building, and failing this some shift in the classes will have to be arranged. though Mr. Girdwood frankly con- fessed that he did not know how he could do it. ..... .... -1: LL- L-I:_I___ .___,o`,__ _, Assembly, Room May Have. to!

In British Columbia there is a station at Jericho Beach, Vancouver, where there are four or ve different lines of activity. Planes are used to watch for violation of the shery `laws. Among the most common violations are using larger nets than the regul- ations call for and shing after 6 p. m. on Saturday or on Sunday. Fast patrol boats had proved inadequate, as the `fishermen had a system of look-puts. With the planes, they can spot the offenders every time and forestry the airplanes are doing great work. Their `use in re protection is well known. They were very valuable in dealing with the white pine blister rust which threatened to destroy the whole existing stand of that timber. By v exposing plates smeared With. Vaseline. the Flyers learned that the spore of therust reached a height of. 5000 feet and`would spread i100 " miles; Information gathered by the Airmen" was of immense value in combatting the-pest. Another im- portant use of the machines is to take .oblique`photographs for construction purposes, for example, those taken of the Coquitlam dam and watershed`.

In Luc. ` " Bv way of introduction Command- er Breadner said -that the people of Barrie had always been associated to a considerafble extent with the per- sonnel of Camp Borden; During the war they had opened their homes and their hearts to the members of the Flying Corps, so the. visitors from the Camp naturally felt very much at home attending this luncheon. i Peaceful Pursuits . This time six years ago, contin- ued the speaker, before the Armis- tice, we were devoting all our ener- gies to breaking an enemy. Today we are still members of the militia, but we (the C.A.F.) are devoting nearly all our attention to peaceful pursuits; a big contrast to the war days when the work or the pilots was all directed .for hostile ends. The Air Force in Canada is different from that of any other country because it carries out a peaceful job; its work is not only necessary but highly use- ful. The G. A. F. is a military 9r-i ganization, carrying out a civil job, but not in competition with commer- cial companies. ' run. __.__I__,.-_,,,_'.

Later he took Pekin without the loss_of a` single man. He is surrounded by a sta` of christian generals- Mrs. Goforth stated that she is acquainted with some of them and they are splendid men. Political Conditions Bad Nothing could be worse than the political conditions at the "present time, said Mrs. Goforth. The coun- try is lled with strife and lawless- ness. Gen. Feng wants to use the army for peace. ` If..- f`,_,,LI_ _, 1' 1 I " - _-_ _- --..--- va - Man of Great` Force Gen. Feng is a man of tremen- dous force of character, said Mrs. Goforth. He is a big man physical- ly, standing over six feet in height, and has the heart of a lion. Terrible in his wrath when roused, he is ten- der as a woman in the presence of l pain or sickness. His christianity is not ethical but is a living faith. At rst he had only 12,000 followers. This number was rapidly increased to 40,000 and now he has practically the whole army with him. Many of t his soldiers are c.hristians. V If Ii 10 I _..- rvwvyu Mrs. Goforth noticed a great dif- ference in the attitude of the people of China towards the missionaries. Where formerly they were persecut- ed and refused a hearing, they are now received courteously wherever they go. The people are wonderful- ly susceptible to the inuence of christianity but the great trouble is lack of help. There is a tremendous need of schools, hospitals, preachers, nurses, teachers and doctors. jtthere were over 200 `in attendance.

Mrs. Goforth has been thirty-seven years in China and is acquainted with Gen. Feng.
