Our soldiers, sailors and airmen look forward eagerly to every p05! for letters from home, and the vast amount of epistolary matter going lhfmlgh vii‘? mans every day would fill a library. But it is not as literature that it is being written, and. W611i" lies its prime value for the recipient. On 11115 interesting subject, Opinion Research, a T01‘- onto publication, has thc following helpful coni- ment: _ Letter writing is not an art, and more Party" it becomes the less readable it 1s. To write an interesting letter to a soldier or a sailor the first thihg to do is to forget about such things as grammarior the correct formal cti quette 0f letter-writing. _ _ _ Write your letter just as if the recipient was lilting across the table and you were convers- ing with him. Rcmembei that the trivial things are apt to be most interesting. Rad your home-town newspaper and see what the edltOr features, to get a line on what is interesting aub- ject matter.

Hardin he expresses an inescapable tuth. Than is small chance of "food pills” flporlodilg the kind of meals we now eat, at but for many yuan to 00ml. The practicability of condensed foods is now beyond question. Science can compress into pry small space all the nourishment the aver- qe human being needs for healthful living. "A full meal can be swallowed in a matter of seconds, and simply washed down with a glass of water, just as one takes a tablet for head- aohe or indigestion. That, however, is not enough. The average human being still refuses to do things simply because they are good for him. Eating has _al- ways consisted of more than merely taking nourishment. It is one of the pleasures of life, and also one of its social amenities. Perhaps one little capsule can convey as much nour- ishrnent as a juicy steak, but it fails utterly to satisfy one of our primary human cravings, the urge to derive pleasure from eating. Like many theoretical schemes of economic reform, the food pill fad leaves out the one important clement, human nature. ' Post-War Aviation What will air transportation do to the post- war world? This, says the Christian Science Monitor, is a question to which there are many ready answers. It will make formerly isolated places easily accessible. It will bring nations many hours closer together. It will enable people to travel as they never have done before; we shall know more about each other, understand each other better and thereby promote a friend- lier world. To be sure, all these are true, but will it not also have an ultimate effect on boundary settle- ments iii Europe, especially as these bear 0n the question of outlets to the oceans? In the past, nations have demanded outlets to the sea. They have seen in these the only means of keeping their trade lanes open. Their nat- ional economy and indeed their very existence has for centuries depended in a large degree upon the shipping that came and went through their seaports. But tomorrow seaports will coun less. _ _ Before the present war, air transportation gave promise of some day becoming a vital fac- tor in commerce. \Vhcn the war ends, that day will come. So engrossed have we been in cou- sideriiig the vital part PlFlIlCS and pilots are playing in the war. we have hardly taken time f," eve" a glimpse into the future, to see the role tliev will play there. p The gigantic strides which have been mad: in lhc construction of air tr8fl5P°Ti51 cmlfilinad with the thousands of young men who will rc- turii tn evc-rv country as seasoned, hillhi)"5k‘il°*l moment the war is ended.

Ralston told the House that the over-all manpower needs in most people in Ottawa were surprised. This looked like a low figure, but it was a plain signal that more attention is being given this year to increasing the supply of ships and planes and foodstuffs and lumber and coal and base metals than to expanding the personnel of the army, navy and air force. That may be sound policy, and Col. Ralston assured Parliament and people the numerical objective for the uniformed forces was set after closest study and consultation with the United Kingdom and the United States. a a u a ference of the Canadian Fire Marshals in Que- bec, was an address by Mr. W. I. Scott, of To- ronto, Ontario fire marshal and adviser to the 'director of civil air raid precautions, who stress- ed the importance of A.R.P. work and said it was “certainly not the physical difficulty" which kept enemy planes from raiding Canada. The enemy, he said, has the planes to bomb Canadian shores at any time they wish to risk the losses of a long-range attack and the best way to in- vite such ittack would be to be unprepared. He reported that the federal government has spent $6,000,000 on A.R.P. equipment and that volun- teer A.R.P. workers total 225,000, "very con- crete evidence" that the government and the citizens of Canada were aware of the need for defence preparation. w i: n w On July 14 Bonaventure Station, Montreal, will take on the new name of St. James Street Station. Because of the long historical associa- tion of the name "Bonaventure" with the city. it has been decided to prdserve it in the new C.N.R. terminal. St. James Street Station will continue to operate under a more limited sche- dule; most of the traffic it has been carrying will he transferred to the new station. Lake- shore suburban trains will use the old station. and also certain troop trains. The old station is only remaining in use because, in wartime, it is" impossible to get the full complement of elec- tric locomotives required to handle all the traf- fic through the tunnel and over the viaduct into the new station. All main line traffic except that which the hlnreziii station now looks after fliers, mean "somethings in the air" fOF 115 11W 5 will rim in and out of tlic new terminal. bor nor event be located on a railroad, perhaps, lack of transportation will be opened, giving many countries new resources.
