Dinner in the mess hall at Man­ ning Bool in Toronto, a trip through the buildings followed by a visit to the John Inglis plant and seeing the Bren gun and the Browning gun being turned out in mass produc­ tion were the highlights of Friday last while attending the Canadian Weekly Newspapers Convention in Toronto. In the evening a banquet was held at the Royal York Hotel at which Bishop R. J. Renison was the guest speaker and he gave an interesting description of his re­ cent trip to the British Isles along with a party of Canadian news­ paper men. A series of articles on the same trip has been published in the Times-Advocate, written by Hugh' Templin, of Fergus, another member of the party, At the imorn- ing session Mr. Templin related some of the highlights of the trip. Attending the convention from the Times-Advocate were J. M. South- cott, Barry Wenger and Robert and Donald Southcott, Andy Clarke, of Toronto, who each Sunday morning at ten o’clock, over CBL broadcasts “Neighborly News”, gathered from the many Ontario weekly newspapers, gave an Interesting address relative to his work and paid a compliment to the weeklies by calling them “The salt of the earth.” Dinner at Manning Fool morning session the party and in motored to the Air Force Man- were received by Following the the ladies joined four large buses Royal Canadian ning Pool.

The meal was good and everything clean and ap­ petizing. The party was welcomed by Wing Commander McDonald, who, following dinner, took the salute for a march past of several squadrons of airmen. A tour was made of the buildings, including the men’s quarters, recreation rooms, theatre, etc. Everything seemed to be provided for the care and com­ fort of the lads in uniform. We were going through one of the cor­ ridors when we met Laverne Chris­ tie, who is on office duty there. While watching some of the boys in fatigue suits playing softball, we were surprised to see Orville Law- son on one of the teams. He has been on guard duty for several weeks and was off duty at the time. We algo met Sgt. Major W. E, Balk-will, who expects in a short time to- be posted to Port Albert airport with the Works and Build­ ing division. &See Machine Guns Made through the plant, was privilege of firing the It was a great thrill. ever to go given the Browning. The boys had one eye op the mach­ ines and the other on the girl oper­ ators and it is difficult to say which was the most attractive to them. I would say that Don got the most smiles. On Saturday morning a business session was held to talk shop. One of the speakers was Mr. E. M, Little, of Ottawa, who spoke on “National Selective Service”. The need for recruits for the fighting forces and at the same time the de­ mand for workers in war industries is creating a tremendous national ■problem and many readjustments must be made.

A short talk by Majoi’ Hahn, superintendent of the plant preceded a trip of inspection. One has to see, to in a small degree realize the tremendous task of tool­ ing for mass production for the in­ struments of war. The machines for manufacturing the various parts run into the hundreds and these machines had to be manufactured first, and operators trained after­ wards. The speed with which these guns are being turned out is a mar­ vel. There were several things that impressed us as miracles of modern invention. One was the, cutting out of small patterns from, ited on Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. a bar of steel an inch thick with Ervine Eggert. an acetylene torch.
