TIMMIN®, ONTARIO Members Canadian Weekly Newspaper Association; Ontarioâ€" Quebec Newspaper Association: Class "A" Weekly Group There is reason for real optimism in the fact that circumstances have forced Britain to a realâ€" istic view of the warâ€"to the fact that she must depend upon herself and her own resources. There is further cause for optimism in a considerâ€" ation of the resources upon which the Empire may depend. In ships, in men, in munitions, in power in the air, in wealth, and in the true devoâ€" tion of her sons and daughters all over the earth, the British Empire has a strength and power that moves her to face the world unafraid. Recent word from Europe does not leave the French situâ€" to a succession of reverses to the Allies. The failâ€" ure of the French to blow the bridges over the Meuse river is now admitted to have been due to treachery in high places, and this treachery alâ€" lowed the Germans to enter France. In Belgium there was open and avowed treachery that came close to causing the annihilation of over three hundred thousand British soldiers. The rescue of that three hundred thousand soldiers from the trap into which treachery led them will be one of the epics of military history in the days to come. Again in France recently, it is admitted that treachery in high places came very close to taking a toll of hundreds of thousands of British soldiers‘ lives. Again, according to broadcasts last night, the superior skill and talent of the British leaders, foiled the traitors and brought the greater part of the British armies in France safe to their own land. The treachery in Norway is now a matter of record. It is also a matter of record that in Norway superior talent and miliâ€" tary and naval cleverness averted any complete disaster for Britain. Treachery was so rife in Holland that the less said about it the better for the moment. The present deplorable situation in France is but the culmination of a series of incidents against which British stategy has had to fight. Studying the whole record no thoughtâ€" ful Britisher can fail to be proud of the way the British army, navy and air force have wrested some measure of success from almost hopeless situations. The entry of Italy into the war was gimply another sample of the treachery ithat seems to be a part and parcel of the present war. With all these treacheries at the end of their course, there is surely logical reason for renewed optimism. Up to the present Britain has had to fight treachery as well as the open enemy. Now, there is but the enemy to face. There is certainâ€" ly cause for optimism and confidence in the fact that toâ€"day Britain realizes that she must fight the battle without the dependence upon allies or the goodwill of neutrals. There should be two exceptions made to this thought, however. There is one ally still faithful and trueâ€"an ally that has never waveredâ€"Poland. It is well to reâ€" member that Polish soldiers, sailors and airmen have been fighting steadily on the British side all through the war and doing unusually effective work. The other exception is in regard to the neutrals. There has been one neutral nation that has been faithfully and fairly on the side of the right, since the war beganâ€"the United States. Those who say that the United States owes it to herself and to the world to be one of the belligerâ€" ents, should at least give the United States the wellâ€"earned credit of being an honourable neutral. pesrs . ser ze e ismm n a mm sb o db o t â€"at it t m d en t . "It may sound foolish to you," said a local busiâ€" ness man on Saturday, "but I never felt so optimâ€" istic about the outcome of the war as I do toâ€" day!" It does not sound at all foolish to The Adâ€" vance. Instead, it is logic, realism, common sense. Look at the war from the beginning, and it is striking to note how every reverse, every disadvantage has been due to the neutrals or to the treachery of others. It is true that Britain has suffered from the work of paid agents of the enemy, but these never got into high places after the war started (with one possible exception that has by no means been proved). Britain was able to round up the traitors before it was too late. Treachery, on the other hand, was responsible for Timmins, Ont., Monday, June 24th, 1940 Che Yorrupine Advanee HEADS UP! HEARTS PROUD! Published Every Monday and Thursday by GEO. LAKE, Owner and Publisher Subscription Rates: United Statesâ€"#%3.50M Per Year Further, it would be well if the whole national anthem were used, instead of the abbreviated version now found in hymnals and school books. Some years ago, the authorities listening foolishâ€" ly to the importunities of the Reds, the Pinks and the Yellows, dropped the second verse from "God Save The King." This verse should be reâ€" stored to place. It has special significance toâ€" day, but it should never have been removed. O Lord our God arise! scatter his enemies! And make them fall! Confound their politics! Frustrate their knavish tricks! On him our hopes we fix! On Thee we call! In the long history of Britain there has never been as great cause as toâ€"day for the petition to "scatter the enemies" of the Empire and the King: never more need for the earnest plea to ‘confound politics," and "frustrate knavish tricks." There were cynics who sneered at children singâ€" ing, as they claimed, about the "Maypole Leaf," but men and women found that song among the forces that gave them pride and trust in Canada and Canadians. ‘The singing of "God Save the King" each day at school may appear to make litâ€" tle difference in the loyalty of the children of toâ€"day, but in the years to come it will be found to have had its place in moulding their thoughts and lives to loyalty and devotion to the Eimpire and its ideals. It is not out of place to suggest, however, that instead of the anthem being sung at the opening or the closing of the school, it should be used at both the commencement and the end of the school day. Let the National Anthemâ€"the whole National Anthemâ€" be sung in the schools twice each day, and sung, too, by all loyal people at all times and places and occasions. The world‘s sympathy will go out to Franceâ€"a gallant nation that never accepted a humiliating peace before, nor ever imposed such a peace upon a foe. The world knows, or should know, that it is not France, but treachery in France, that has made overtures for peace with Hitler. The real France would not seek and would not accept a Hitler peace. France is bound by the most solemn treaty, as well as the ties of friendship sealed in mutual blood, not to make separate peace with the gangsters. This alone forbade the thought of terms with the enemy. It was enâ€" emies within the gates of France the proud, France the gallant, France the honourable, that has brought the nation to the depths in which it now cowers. There is reason to believe, howâ€" ever, that the remnants of the real France, in the French possessions beyond the seas, with the aid of the French armies ecaping from Hitler, the French navy and the French air force, will be able to fight beside the British and win through for the freedom of France and the rebuilding of the nation again as a civilized power. are capable. Keep your hearts proud and your resolve unshaken. Let us go forward to that task as one man, a smile on our lips and our heads held high, and with God‘s help we shall not fail." Word from Toronto is to the effect that the Ontario Government has made it obligatory on all schools in the province to have the National Anâ€" them, "God Save the King," sung at least once each school day. It is left‘to the jJudgment or opinion of the principal of the individual school as to whether the anthem shall be sung at the opening or the closing of the school, but it must be used at the commencement or the end of school. The terms imposed by Hitler are such as no nation could accept and live in any honour. In effect, Hitler has asked France to give up nationâ€" hood and to assist directly and indirectly in atâ€" tempting to take the life of Britain. (It is such a peace as would be expected from the gangsters Hauptmann and Capone, who now typify the Gerâ€" man and Italian peoples. It is such a peace as no honourable people can accept and live. There will be general approval of this ruling of the Ontario government. It is painfully evident that there has not been enough time and effort given to the inculcation of patriotism in the schools. This has been especially evident in reâ€" cent years when faddish ideas have been allowed to throttle real education. It is true that inâ€" dividual teachers here and there have used every opportunityâ€"made opportunitieseâ€"to teach true patriotism. This has been evident in schools in this town and district, and the Empire owes a debt of thanks to these loyal and farâ€"seeing teachâ€" ers. But in general the tendency has been to forget the essentials such as loyalty, industry, sincerity, in the fads of the day. The newspapers say that France has signed such a peace treaty. It is not true. France has not signed, could not sign, could not even seek a treaty of any kind with the enemy. It is not France, but treachery in France that has done this thing. The real France weeps toâ€"day, but in the days to come the real France, after the fightâ€" ing is over will rise again, free and honourable and gallant, to rebuild what has been lost through treachery and treason. nfi d PA P PP P â€"AL O P OA ltA hP P P :iA l OA l PA P L FRANCE HUMILIIATED BP AP PA AL AL LAAA L â€"AL L C CCA CAE 19 9 THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TTMMINS, ONTARIO Miss May Fitzpatrick, of Demers Centre, is visiting friends in Timmins.

Premier Mackenzie King has announced that he intends to take four new members into his Cabinet. It is sincerely to be hoped that Premier King in adding to his Cabinet will make it a truly National Cabinet. Only a truly National Governâ€" ment should be tolerated at the present time. Not only is it necessary to have all the talent of all parties in the work of winning the war, but the absurdity from the people‘s viewpoint of attemptâ€" ing to run a war on a party basis should be apâ€" parent. To wage war successfully the people must allow infringments on their liberties and rights. While these infringements will be cheerâ€" fully borne from a national government, it is askâ€" ing too much of human nature to expect any cheerfulness in giving up liberty to professed partisans thinking only of the welfare of their party.
