BRUSSELS CADET CORPS
In accot dance with provisions made
by Department of Education a Cadet
Copps has been funned in connection
with the Continuation Sehool, Brus-
sels, Ott account of the scarcity of
the boys it has been extended to in-
clude boys of the Entrance Room as
well.
The following information as to the
aims and methods of bathing will be
of interest to parents :-It is optional
with each school whether a Cadet
Corps be established. Where a Corps
exists it is opbional with each student
whether he becomes a member of the
Corps or not.
It is not the purpose of such an
organization to foster the growth of
the military spirit. Where the in-
structor exercises good judgment such
is far from being the result. Because
a boy knows how to "Form Fours"
and perform various other formations
with promptness is no more likely to
make him inclined to a warlike aim
than the knowledge of how to load a
gun is likely to tnake hien a menace to
society.
The Department of Education re-
quires at least one hem each week
devoted to dtill and physical exer-
cises in every school hence the Cadet
Corps merely extends the course. No
additional time is taken from the
regular school program. Cadet Corps
training aims to secure physical
development through its exercises and
to insulate the habit of performing
specified work with promptness and
dispatch in a willing manner -to
train in discipline, obedience and re-
spect for properly constituted author-
ity, It develops the very qualities
that go to the making of a good, ef-
ficient citizen,

ing officers : - Instructor, Principal

ing on this work satisfactorily. Each

The government provides signal

tice, etc,, free use of Cadet Corps as
well as making grants for uniforms.

were Rev. J. H. Avnup, assistant For-

lighted the audience and his address

BRUSSELS BOY SLEW FAMOUS HUN

ill
Sub.Flight Lieut "Eddie" McKay, a
former Bursae's boy, born in Oxford
County, and whose mother lives near
Stratford now, is, according to a letter
received from a London officer at the
front, one of the two aviators who
were responsible for the death of
Capt. Boelke, Germany's most famous
battle aviator, who was killed recent-
ly on the Western front.
According to the letter, Lieut. Mc-
Kay and his brother aviator engaged
12 planes. Ten of these they routed
and the latter two they cleverly jock-
eyed into a collision 110 11 high altitude
with each other. Capt. Boelke, de-
stroyer of 40 allied aeroplanes and
personal favorite of the Em-
peror and Field -Marshal Von Heiden.
butg and the idol of the German Etn-
pive, was in one of these and he eel
the other enemy aviator were hurled
to their deaths far below.
Lieut. McKay, according to the let-
ter, was warmly congratulated by
Gen. Sir Douglas Haig for hie feat and
is said to be in Hite for a handsome
decoration. A few days before, ac-
cording to the letter, which says that
"Eddie McKay is getting more Jenr-
ette here every day, he went up -with
four ()thee aviators and beat of an
attack by 20 German aeroplanes. For
this McKay and his comrades were
congratulated in orders."
Official British and German dis-
patches told of the death of Capt.
Boelke, but it was not previously
known that it was a London, let alone
a Canadian aviator, who was one of
the two who sent him 00 his death.
McKay was a student at Western
University London when be enlisted in
the Royal Flying Coves. Ile was very
popular and was a fine hockey and
football player. Two other brothers
ate also at the front.
The Get -man Emperor was repre-
sented at the funeral of Capt. Boelke
and notable Germans present included
Crown Prince Ruprecht and Gen, Von
Buelow,
Huron County.
As a result of a meeting there is
hardly any doubt that the 5 cent con-
nection charge through Hensel' and
Exeter centrals will have to be in-
augurated.
