The liills oi Montague

Dear hills of Montague: ' Although you are so far away: I often think of you, In a homesick sort of way.

Enchanting hills of Montague. Clad with green or capped wit-h snow, You werg my favorite rendezvous. When blessed with youth and heart uglow.

I dream so oft of home

And things around about. Along the shore I roam

When the tide is running out-

The red sand seems no sch Beneath my weary feet.

And from tho banks aloft. The bird song: float l0 awn-

The Joyous days of long age I spent beside you there. Many hours 1’ watched you flow. When my heart was freg from can.

The tid. cf life ‘til sad to Icy: Will never backward turn.

The days of youth must pass away. To old age sadly turn.

In the twilight sad and low.

As the shadows longer grow. We must await another home;

Just how long we never know.

MAJ. GENERAL H. W. FOSTER

At. a. press conference, the 44- year-cid Eastern Command chic-i‘ disclosed thllt the five new mili- lary commands in Catiuda would be modelled on divisional lines with mobile headquarters.

The headquarters will mOVe in open weather during schemes and exercises.

He also discloscd that his own command had a four-ship marine section to keep in touch with New- foundland Labrador outposts and would soon have a flight of four aircraft. the beginning of the bus- iness end of his tiperational striking forcv. .

The planes and 30 personnel will be stationed at Dartmouth. across Halifax harbor. where possibly the Maritime personnel of the future airborne striking head of the Can- adian army will keep in sha-pc.

Large, Airborne Group

The fact that the Dominion was planning an airborne brigade group of 10.000 was disclosed carlinr when rluns for the new peacetime urnii’ wctv JLIIITUIIIIGiTI.

While Gencral l-loslci" mire weal;- ing primarily of ins iivm uonunand. it was understood his statement might, have general application in- asmuch as Eastern Command has the same general purpose as the other four military areas.

But his statement was the first indication that the peacetime army

ight be modelled along the lines cc General C-rersr‘; first Canadian

army.

General Foster said the decent- ralization into fivu area commands would obviate large clerical staffs at Ottawa, do away with much "paper-war" and aJIOW a counnand to operate more as a divisional command in the field.

Headquarters of Eastern Com- mand, which absorbed tho old

Military District No. 6. would remain at Halifax. Old unite like
