MAGIC EYE DOORS MAKE TRAVEL EASIER This Koyal Canadian Air Force officer, his wife and their baby too, judging by the satisfied exprts- sion, are boosters for the new "mapc eye' doors installed at the Windsor Station in Montreal by the Canadian Pacific Railway as an aid to luggage-laden travellers. The new installation, first of its kind in a Canadian railway station, depends on a photo electric cell to act as a switch and set com- pressed air working to open the doors. Interruption of a beam of light, invisible to the naked eye, is the "magic" which starts the photo electric cell working and causes the portals to swing open without them being touched. PRELUDE TO A RECONNAISSANCE IN ITALY Somewhere in Italy, Major Frank Johnson, (right) of Three Rivers, Que. gives last minute instructions to Lieut George Anderson, Toronto, as men of an Armoured Brigade get ready to have a look-see at the German lines. ARMY CAMERAMAN FIRST CANADIAN TO ENTER PARIS Feeling a bit embarrassed by the Impulsive welcome he is getting, is Capt. Colin McDougall of Ottawa, Ont. A member of a Canadian Army Film and Photo Unit, Capt. McDougall was the first Canadian soldier to enter the French capital. Such was the e.Kcitement at seeing a Canadian uniform that the crowds of laughing, friendly Parisians literally jammed the street and brought his jeep to a stop. THEY HEED WORDS OF WISDOM Wheti Sgt. Ol'n Dows, Rhinelander, N. Y., talked to this group of Germans, taking advantage of his fluent knowledge of their own language, his words made sense. He convinced them that further fight was hopeless, so S6 men surrendered to him. ' HANGING AROUND Indulging their long-suppressed desire to jeer at their Nazi op- pressors, citizens of a French city, liberated by Allied forces, parade through streets with German sol- diers hanged in effigy. SECURITY TALKER Pictured above, as he arrived in Washington, is Dr. V. K. Wel- lington Koo, Chinese ambassador to Great Britain, who is chief of China's delegation to the four- power postwar security talks at Dumbarton Oaks. WIDE EXPERIENCE tJ. S. Army nurses never know what they'll bump into when on active duty, so Lieut. Rose K. Frazer wasn't surprised to find herself feeding a day-old native infant on Saipan Island.
