It is hoped that these informal musical evenings will lead to increased in­ terest in things musical on the Sta­ tion. This Thursday evening we are holding a Thursday Night Town Hall, It is hoped that an evening of dis­ cussion on current affairs will prove stimulating and bring us up to date oxx the world situation. * * * * We have been fortunate to have two outstanding movies, “Man Hunt”, a Hitchcock thriller, held the audience Spellbound. This featured Walter Pidgeon arid Joan Bennett. “This Above All”, featuring Tyrone Power and Joan Fontaine shown on Monday night proved equally O1X“ thralling. This picture, based on the Well-known book by Eric Knight reminded us What a groat loss the literary world has suffered in his untimely passing. Last. Week we had the privilege of a visit from the Deputy Inspec­ tor General, Air Vice-Marshal frey, and the new A.O.C., Air modore McGill, Who with staffs spent a day at No. 9 Arriving by air early in the morning the par­ ty made a tour of the Station, vis­ iting hangars, offices, barrack blocks, airmen’s mess, canteens, hos­ pital, recreation hall, drill hall, etc. In the afternoon there was a parade of all personnel, and an inspection and march past. Just before the march past the Air Vice-Marshal ad­ dressed the parade. He spoke ’of the fine impression of cleanliness and efficiency he had gained from his tour of the Station, paid a special tribute to the Women’s Division, and referred to the happy associations he had had in past years with our Commanding Officer, who (he re­ minded the parade) was one of the ..finest pilots Canada had evei’ had. In the evening the visiting party was entertained at a Mess dinnei’ in the Officers’ Mess, spector General in speech gave a very count of his visits Stations on the east and west coasts. The new A.O.C., in a felicitous speech, -spoke of his hopes and aims for No. 1 Training Command and then, at the urgent request of the mess, told some of the French Can­ adian stories for which, as a Mont­ realer, he is justly famous. The* whole day was a great suc­ cess. The weather was fine, spring was in the air and evei’yone felt, af­ ter the encouraging Words of Air Vice-Marshal Godfrey, that the job he or she was doing was just a little bit more important arid fitted just a little bit more realistically irito the pattern of R.C.A.F. life and the vital part it is playing in the struggle for Victory than it had always been possible to realize during the try­ ing snowbound days of Winter. This appears to bo a good place to sigh FARM FORUMS ., The farm forum of S.S. No. 3, Stephen, met Monday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Pen- hale with the best attendance yet recorded.
