MORE JAM OR JELLY—So very little juice has time to boil away that you get up to one half more jam or jelly from an equal amount of fruit. BETTER TASTE-COLOUR—In this short boil the fresh flavour stays in the fruit; the natural colour remains unspoiled. NO FAILURES—If you follow the Certo recipes exactly there’ll be no failures. Your jams and jellies will turn out right. EI7I Make Better Jams and Jellies Use CERTO ft qives SURE RESULTS . ror to 21 lb.

JOINT AIR TRAINING PLAN CANADA’S GREAT­ EST ENTERPRISE By Hugh Templin It was a quiet April Sunday here in Ontario, but over in Europe, the war had boiled over in a new direction. As usual, Hitler had chosen the beginning of a new’week and the time of the full moon to launch another attack. The radio was pouring out bits of news at regular intervals. Actually, there was not much to tell yet, and most of the bulletins were made up of what some government thought or what another statesman had said. It seemed that most of Europe was being heard from —London, Vichy, Berlin, Rome, Ath­ ens, Moscow and Washington. There was no official comment from the Government of Canada, and yet there was one to be heard, even loud­ er than the voices on the radio. Every few minutes, there was the sound of a plane passing over .our village — the loud roar of a Harvard trainer or the duller sound of the twin motors of an Awo-Anson bomber. It was- Can­ ada’s answer to Hitler. Some time before that, Hon. C. G. Power, Minister of National Defence for Air,, had put it into words. From one of his speeches in Parliament, I quote just one paragraph: “Canada has a responsibility to bear. We are the senior partner in the Com­ monwealth outside Great Britain. We are not, as was the case in the last war, simply making a contribution to the common pot; we are in the war as a partner. It is patent to all the peo­ ple of the world that eventual success cannot be won until we first achieve airuequality and then gain such air su- prelnacy as will permit us to take the offensive without which no war can be won, In this respect the Dominion of Canada has a far greater responsi­ bility than was ever dreamed of dur­ ing the last conflict. We are the main­ stay and right arm of Great Britain. In so far -as the Joint Air Training Plan is concerned, we believe that we have reached the point where we can predict the success of the plan and the attainment pf our common object. In order to do this, we need the help,ithe advice and the support of all the peo­ ple of Canada. I do believe that we will receive it.” Canada’s Greatest Enterprise The British Commonwealth Air Training Plan has been called “Can­ ada’s greatest single enterprise.” It is our country’s outstanding effort to help Britain to hold out at home and later to strike back so hard that the war is certain to be won. It attracts the attention of much of the world. Canada has placed at the disposal of Great Britain and the Empire her vast area in which to train student pilots unmolested, and has also assumed the responsibilty for much of the cost of the plan, and supplying, most of the young men who will become the mem­ bers of the air crews and the ground crews. As to the suitability of Canada as training ground, there is no doubt. There is plenty of room; the sites for landing fields and the buildings for training schools are available. The United States is nearby to supply cer­ tain types of planes and a large num­ ber of extra instructors. The total cost of the project was or­ iginally estimated at $600,000,000, of which Canada was to pay somewhat more than half. But as the pace of the war was accelerated, the cost-of the plan has mounted. It is now revised to $824,000,000, of which Canada is to pay $531,000,000. The men come from various parts of the Empire—England and Scotland, Australia and New Zealand, with a sprinkling from the Argentine, the far- off Straits Settlements, the United States and numerous other countries. But the Royal Canadian Air Force is in charge of the training and four out of five of the recruits are Canadians. Every one of them seems determined, to become a pilot and to follow in the footsteps of Bishop, Collishaw, Barker and the rest—but of that, more later. Canadians Don’t Know the Story Yet With such a great and important task on our hands, it seems strange that Canadians don’t know the story of the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan. They have read about it again and again, Without realizing {■ 27 of the Latest R.A.F. Photos FREE! ’i&’i Bee Hive Syrup * * v <* *• w « v other fine R.A.F.

Early in May, the editors of weekly newspapers in Ontario and Quebec had an opportunity to visit one of the Bombing and Gunnery schools near Lake Erie. More than one expressed surprise at the magnitude and effic­ iency of the camp. Yet it is but one of 83 training camps and schools that will be used in the completed plan. Another Ontario editor recently spent an afternoon in a great peat bog on the high tablelajid of Southwestern Ontario. It is a flat countryside where there is nothing to obstruct the view for miles and no sound except the oc­ casional bird. He was amazed at the continual procession of planes high ov­ erhead. It seemed that before one was out of sight and hearing, another would be coming over the horizon, most of. them bombing planes which had travelled many miles. Back home that night, he stayed outside for an hour to watch xnore bombers cutting across the sky, though all he could see each time was one more star, disting­ uishable only ^because it moved and was sometimes red or green. ;He was- filled with a great curiosity about how these men are trained. The First of a Series This is the first of a series of ar­ ticles about the Air Training Plan and the R.-C.A.F. They are being written for the readers of Ontario’s weekly newspapers to answer some of the ^questions so often asked, and to tell Canadians what their Royal Canadian Air Force is doing. When the officers of the Canadian Weekly Newspapers Association met at Ottawa recently, there was much discussion about what their papers could, do to help the war effort. It was suggested that one editor be chos­ en to write about the Air Force. The- fullest co-operation was freely offered, by the Department of Public Informa­ tion, not only in the matter of arrang­ ing visits to :he various camps and schools, but in supplying pictures to go with them. I was chosen for that interesting task, Already I have visited several cent­ res: in the next few weeks, I will-be going to many others. Already, I can . testify to the courtesy and warm wel­ come from all whom I have met. Questions have been freely answered and I have been shown all I asked to see. The only restriction is as to the numbers graduating and going to the Motherland. The need for secrecy is apparent to anyone. But already it has been announced in Parliament that ov­ er 50,000 young Canadians have enlist­ ed in the R.C.A.F.—enough to make up three divisions of infantry.
