Canadian attack teams are famous for their skill and daring. As raw recruits, they entered R.C.A.F. Training Schools. They emerged within a few happy and exciting months as trained specialists - clear-eyed and competent. Every member of a bomber crew is an expert at his own job, yet at the same time part of a closely-knit, smooth-working team. Happily, too, the air training and technical knowledge possessed by these fighting comrades of the skies will open up golden opportunities to them later in civil life.

The following is the address: Dear Mary and Russet:- We, your friends and neighbours, have gathered here tonight to wish you good luck, health, happiness and smooth sailing on your matrimonial voyage. We extend to you, Mary, a warm welcome to our community. In the days of shortage and strict economy, it being' our duty to take good care of what we have, we thought you might appreciate a little kindly advice on preserving a husband. A good many 'husbands are spoiled by mis- management-their wives treat them as balloons, and blow them up, or leave them to freeze by their careless- ness and indifference. 'See that his clothes are nicely washed airy' mended with the required number of buttons and strings. oTie him with a strong silk cord called comfort, as the one called duty is apt to be weak. Make a clear, steady fire out of love, neat- ness and cheerfulness. Let him as near this as seems to agree with him. Add a little ,sugar in the form of kisses, but no vinegar nor pepper on any accoupit. A little spice improves him but it must be used with judge- ment. If thus Areated, you will find him agreeing with you and he will keep as long. as you want, Now a little advice to you, Russel. It takes so little to make a wife happy, It takes so little to make her sad, I hope you know the recipe for always being glad. I half suspect-though to the wise you . ' surely will refer it-- The .one ingredient is love, With you and Mary to stir it. So if a shower this be, It seems to me, 'Tis raining out of the blue, And the drops that -fall Are one and all. Best wishes, my fitends, to you. Signed on behalf of your friends and neighbours. Following is a letter received by Mrs. James Anger in answer to her first letter sent her 'brother-in-law over a year ago. Trooper Miller left Eng- land for Africa with the First Tank Corps and was taken prisoner of war nearly two years ago being transferred to Naples, Italy. It is presumed the letter was eight months enroute. • Dear Edie and Jim:- Your beautiful letter of the 17-8 has arrived safely and found me in very good health but longing terribly. This makes two letters I have received from you, and I hope more are on the way. Your writing of the girls brought back memories, as Blyth and myself were ardent hikers, gee, I envy them. There is such a lot I could write you Edie but soon I shall catch you up as I shall be writing you every week. If it is possible, it would give me great pleasure if you could inform your Canadian Red Cross Society that their parcels of food have been greatly appreciated and all here give thanks from their hearts for such kindness. Now Jim, I do hope by now your illness is ended and you are once more your cheerful self. I have ex- perienced 5 months in bed and can sympathize with you Jim, but lets keep the old smile going and give our better halves a bright outlook. I am afraid my little daughter is going to he spoiled by her dad, when he sees her. All now, love to all, Alf.
