Brian Forsyth spent his sum-
mer at College Militaire Royal,
St. Johns, Quebec as a mem-
ber of the Canadian Cadet
Corps d'Elite. Cadets were
drawn• from three services.
There were 6'7 air cadets, 6'1
army and 55 sea cadets, and a
40-piece band in the force.
The following article ap-
peared in The Montreal Star on
August 14;
A small band of cadets tra-
vels 100 miles each day to
raise and lower the Canadian
flag.
The epitome of dedication?
It may be, but for the newly-
formed Canadian Cadets Corps
d'Elite it has become a routine
chore.
Each day (10 a.m. and8.30
p.m.) a guard of about 65 cad-
ets comes in from St. Johns,
site of the College Militaire
Royal, 25 miles south west of
here, to raise and lower the
Maple Leaf at the entrance of
Expo's Canadian Pavilion, part
of the varied activities of the
Corps d'Elite whose over-all
number totals 200,
Specifically, the corps,
which draws its membership
from all parts of the country,
was established to provide an
opportunity to bring to Canad-
ians the message and purpose of
its parent units.
TRI-SERVICE DRILLS
The cadets are aged be-
tween 14 and 18, and were
selected on their high standard
of military knowledge, leader-
ship and academic success.
•Originally, the cadets were
trained according to their own
service techniques but now have
mastered the all-embracing tri-
service drilling. It actually
took them 10 days to accomp-
lish the feat, according to Lieu-
tenant Commander P. Godbout,
who is the corps' officer com-
manding.

PLACE FOR. PIN-UPS
If your children are fond of
.decorating their bedroom walls
with pin-ups, meanwhile ruin,.
ing the wall, you might take
steps to make it easier for them
and protect the wall at the
same time, A piece of beaver
board screwed to the wall is a
receptive surface for thumb,
tacks and when finally removed
leaves only four small holes to
be patched, If the beaver
board panel is painted the same
color as the remainder of the
room's walls., it will go un-
noticed while doing its protec.,
tive job.
19 (and will continue through
Sept. 2) is one of the many
showcase activities of the elite
contingent.
This ceremony, in particu-
lar, is an exercise of precision
and color as the guards -- each
of the services alternates in the
task daily -- raise the flag each
morning.
Arriving in a military bus
about 30 minutes before the
scheduled ceremony, the guard4,
in their splendid uniforms, then
prepare for the big moment.
A few minutes before the
actual raising, the guards form
up around the huge pole, which
dominates the pavilion plaza,
then spread out the red and
white Maple Leaf in homage.
The flag is then raised by two
cadets.
ATTRACTS CROWDS
The ceremony never fails to
attract a crowd. Often, the
spectators applaud as the flag
reaches the top of the pole,
which rises 85 feet. The flag
itself measures about 12 by six
feet.
The Corps d'Elite by no
means confines its activities to
its own geographical environ-
ment. For four days next week,
part of the corps will travel to
Quebec City to parade at the
historic Citadel -- where it is
sure to be exposed to the thou-
sands of tourists.
From Aug. 21 to 31, the
cadets move to Ottawa, to Par-
liament Hill, for further par-
ades.
Local provincial events are
not ignored, with the corps of-
ten participating in parades and
drills in various Quebec mu-
nicipalities.
The young members of the
corps remain in that contingent
for the duration of their enrol-
ment at the college.
A spokesman for the col-
lege, Flight Lieutenant J. Tet-
reault, said the corps gives its
members a perfect opportunity
to exploit their talents to the
fullest and, for the non-Quebec
members, to learn French and
It was a riot to watch!
Gerald Smith, winner of the
draw last week in the Lions
Club Shopping Spree, had his
day in the IGA when for three
minutes he had an opportunity
to grab all the groceries he
could pile into a grocery cart.
Last Thursday evening was
his choice of nights and the
IGA his choice of stores for the
race against time. Hewasreadl
the rules by committee chair-
man Lion Lorne McDonald and
as he went into action he had a
small audience which included
Lion president Fred McGee and
store owner Harold Remington,
as well as his wife and family,
plus a couple of photographers.
At the whistle he dived into
the first items which happened
to be nylon stockings, but rules
allowed only one unit of each
item so he went on to the next
as'he raced down the aisles.
Wedding service
in Hanover United
BELIvIORE—A wedding of in-
terest to the people of this com-
munity was solemnized in Han-
over United Church on Saturday
afternoon, September 2nd,
when Ruth Margaret Hewitt be-
came the bride of George Pac-
ey of Cobalt. Ruth is the eld-
est daughter of Rev, and Mrs.
A. G. Hewitt. The groom is
the son of Mrs. Henry Pacey of
Harcourt, Ontario, and the late
Mr. Pacey.
The bride's father perform-
ed the ceremony. She was giv-
en in marriage by her brother
Sidney, and wore the floor-
length veil that had been worn
by her mother. Her sister
Elaine was her maid of honor.
After a wedding trip to Lake
Placid and other points in the
U.S., they will reside in Co-
balt,
Ruth received her early edu-
cation in Belmore when her fa-
ther was United Church minis-
ter here. Following his retire-
ment last June, Rev. Mr. and
Mrs. Hewitt moved to Han-
over.
NEW-CROP GOURMETS
Every summer completes the
training of a new generation of
gourmets who argue endlessly
on whether a marshmallow is
completely black on the out-
side when properly toasted,
whether or not to split a wiener
and how to cook corn.
NON-SUP STEPS
To help avoid nasty falls
from slippery stairs leading to
the basement, which too often
are poorly lighted and steep,
try painting them a light color
and sprinkle sand over the sur-
face while the paint is still wet.
The sand will absorb the color
and be unnoticeable, and when
the paint dries the treads will
be non-slip.

doesn't hurt, either, he said.
He hit the meat counter and
the packages flew into the cart.
At some point, however, the
fast working operator got a bit
confused and came down the
same section twice, but it
didn't matter, the groceries
piled up. One minute went by,
to him it only seemed 10 sec-
onds; the two-minute mark was
reached and the groceries piled
higher; the final bell rang at
the three-minute mark and the
fun was all over except for the
cheering.
Then came the moment of
truth for the members of the
Lions Club, who had to pay the
bill, when Mr. Remington start-
ed to punch the cash register
and it took longer to ring up the
loot than it did for Jerry to fill
the cart.
