Dated at Flesherton this 14th day of September, 1042. OHAS. F. OTTEWBLL, Excuto* Bex 4t, Fleheree Harold Graham Missing In Egypt Sgt, Pilot Harold Graham, son of Mr. ami Mrs, E. A. Graham of Clarksburg, and nephew of Mr. Alex. Cameron of Eugenia, is reported as missing in air operations over Egypt. The parents first received notice of his being missing flve weeks ago. and we are only now allowed to re- port the facts. Harold started to train at Toronto in December, 1940, and graduated at Camp Borden the 13th of September, 1941. After fall and winter training in England on a Wellington bomber, he was transferr- ed to Egypt, arriving in Cairn on May 25th last. Mr. and Mrg. Graham received the following letter from his O.C., Wing Comamnder R. E. McGowan: Dear Mrs. Graham :- You will in all probability have re- ceived official notification that your son, Harold, was reported missing from an operational flight against the enemy on the night of July 27th- 28th last. Your son took off from his base to carry out certain ex fcremely important operations against the enemy but failed to return to hi? base. I am afraid nothing whatever was heard from the aircraft during its flight and I am therefore unable to .give you any definite news other than these bare details, although ,' am sorry to say from reports received fiom other aircraft engaged on the same operation, I am unable to hold out vey much hope for your son's safety. Your son has been in my squadron for just over a month and during this time has carried out several highly successful operational sorties against the enemy. He came to me with a fine record of training and I person- ally formed the highest opinion of him and his work. His character was beyond reproach hile he earn- ed the confidence of other members of his crerw and the affection of his brother N.C.O.'s in the squadron. Yours faithfully, R. E. MeGOWAN, Winjr Commander, 4th Sqdrn. Royal Air Force. PASSENGER LOCOMOTIVES ESTABLISH BIG RECORD Work performed by all locomotives employed by the Canadian National Railways is carefully checked and a recent survey indicated that during one month 34 engines in passenger train service covered 422,809 miles, an average of more than 12,435 miles per engine, according to John Rob- erts, chief of motive power and car e-quippment for the National Rail- ways. The engine leading the Can- adian National Parade had 16,340 miles to its credit and the one in 34th place had more than 10,000 miles. The variations are due large- ly to the services in which these loco- motives were engaged, some runs producing greater milage during a month. Types of locomotives in the group include the speedy 5700 so well known in the International Lim- ited service, the fiOOO, the 0100 and the 6400, the latter streamlined, classes. "This satisfactory locomotive per- formance is an important feature in Canadian wartime railroading when military and civilian travellers are increasing in number and passenger trains arc becoming larg anil heav- ier," said Mr. Roberts. IIKKOKS WITHOUT UNIFORMS After a ridiculous attempt to carry on "business as usual 1 ' and get ready to fight a war at the same time most people are awakening to the fact that war is a full-time job. It took quite a while to wake us up, but once we started we began im- mediately to show signs that we mean business. We have even given some slight indication that the "swing to action" needs a little chocking be- fore it runs away with us. It is easy to understand why al- most any red-blooded man wants o "join uip" and get into the fiftht him- self and it's equally easy to see why people who can't fight should want to help build tanks and planes and load shells, but, in our enthusiasm, \v t . must reme>m(hcr that many kinds of work must go on in much the same way as they have been going in peace- time. Food, and clotJhes, and med- ical supplies we need the same kinds we've been making, but much more of jhem.
