PARIS, April- 20.- The arrival of Russian troops at Marseilles to iight side by side with the French forces on the western front has been the sole topic of'cenversation this afternoon. lt is regarded as an event of great significance from -both political and military viqiw point as-it represents the realizst on of the hopes aroused earlier in the war by reports that large bodies of Russians were coming. Tho Russians came ,on a great fleet oi’ transports. Not u single word of their coming wus allowed to become gener- ally known until they 'actually con- cluded the joumey and were landing on French soil. The Russian soldiers will be used to ilii the gaps on the western front caused by- the recent lighting. (Special to the Guardian.) MARSEILLES. April 20-Transports bearing Russian troops drew up to the quay at 2.15 o’ciook to~day. French troops, headed by the 6th Hussars and the 115th territorials, lined the landing to extend a welcome to the arrivals. Sailors of the French ileet in the har- bour manned the yard arms of their vessels and the bands of the iieet played the Russian _National Anthem as the first transport drew up. Rus- sian oiilcers and sailors lined up along the decks and on the bridges of the transports and the Russian bands played the Marseiliaise. As debarka- tion began cheers went up from the Russians on the transports. General Lochweiscy commanded the Russian forces., He was received with military honours by the Governor of Marseilles and General Guerin ,representing General Joffre. Coincident with the _arrival of the Russians comes the statement from Macedonia and throwing them into this hotly contested theatre. - Here the French delivered an attack near Le Mort Momme and succeeded in French of German trenches in Caiiiette Wood. west of Vaux, after a heavy French attack but say that otherwise the attack was repulsed with heavy losses. Around Ypres the Germans, accord- ing to Berlin; attacked and occupied 300 metres of British positions. The British oiilciui report concedes a Ger- man gain here but says that except for two craters and one trench near St Eloi. and on the Ypres-Langemarck road the Germans were expelled from the positions they captured. in Asiatic Turkey the Russians are giving the Turks no rest. They dis- lodged them from their mountain posi- tions and pushed forward their forces to their objective in the operations, which seeks to cut off communication between the northern and southern Turk armies. There has been heavy lighting in the Tohouk region, where the Russians are pressing forward in an attempt to capture Balbourt and come into contact with their army new occupying Trebizond. ' Constantinople reports the British troops besieged in Kut-ei-Amara are in a' critical situation for lack of food and have forced the civilian population to evacuate the town. The usual bom- ,bardments along the Austro-Italian -front are in progress. . _-_-_-I;q,~,~;,~_;_=-_-_-;:_g_f_-_-_-_~_-_-_-.;~_~_-_-.-_-_-_-:.~_=-_-_-_-_-_~ -~ --'~‘-‘-1'-'-'~ - - - - ~ - - - ~ - - - - - - - - - ~ - - - - ~ ‘ ‘ ‘ " SUN UF HON.

James Murray Hazen, younger son of Hon. J. Douglas Hazen, Minister of Marine and Fisheries. Hon. Mr Hazen was in attendance at a cabinet council when thc brief message informing -him of his bereavement was handed to him. Details of the manner in which Lieut. Hazen was killed are lacking. His death occurred "somewhere in France and not improbably in the St Eioi region, where the Canadians have been holding an important section of the LLED IN AGTIUN British lines against-successive Ger- ` man attacks. Lieut. Hazen, who was about twenty- three years of age. was s student st the Royal Military College, Kingston, when war broke out. Without waiting to complete his course he went into training and qualified for his lieuten- ancy. Leaving Canada last fall he \vent with the 30th Field Battery, but was transferred some time ago to the 30th. The eldest son of Hon.

If he had just read thc conclusion of that inspect`or's re- port it would have put a different com- plexion on the matter. It only shows ho\v much reliance can be placed in the hon. member's words. Here is the concluding portion of Inspector Deverea.ux's report, which the mem- ber ought to have read. but which he .carefully refrained from mentioning: “ln conclusion, it is pleasing to be able to report that the past year. on the whole, has been a year of progress. Progress in an educational system can be measured in many ways: by better equipment and-better housing of chil- dren; by better methods of teaching and consequent advance in the intel- lectual attainments of pupils; and by a. growing educational sentiment throughout the country. Along all these lines of development there has been a marked advance. and though we are still far from our ideal, yet we Gan truthfully say that never in the history of this province have our schools been better equipped or mme comfortable; ncver have the teachers been more earliest in the class-room or rcadicr_tc adopt improved methods of imparting instruction; and never have parents taken more inlcrost in the schools or paid more willingly for eilicicnt servlcc. The outlook, then. for the future is most hopeful. and ii’ - parents, teachers, trustees and inspec- tors continue to take such an active interest in educational work, there is no doubt that, as the years go by, our schools shall advance at nn accelerat- ing pace, till at last our position shall be such that every pupil in the schools of this province will be receiving a training that will fit him to discharge his duties faithfully and eiliciontly. in whatever station of life he may be placed." (Applause.) Now. take the report of the Superintendent for last year. Hc says: “ in the School Report of 1911 the then Superintendent of Education. Dr Anderson, after referr- ing tothe hopelessness of his task, the falling off of thc number of puipis enrolled. and the considerable dc- crease in tho average daily attendance. is constrained to add: "'I‘herc is, I am sorry to say. already observable a weakening in the morale, . _ .
