Most of this sassion will be devoted to business.‘ but at. thLs meeting if there is not time earlier in the week. we plan to have an- other Forum Discussion 0n our edu- catlonal problems. Other matters discussed at the Executive meeting were the Spitfire Fund, Education Week program and a suppiemnetary Salary Brief. With regard to the Spitfire Fund. the Score‘ y-Treasurer reported that $500, already been for- warded to Mr. Crutchfleld. It was moved and seconded that expenses in connection with the Spitfire Flmshould be borne by the reo- eration so that all money con- tributed by the teachers would go directly to the Central Flmd. It was decided that no sug- gestions would be forwarded at this ime about the Education Week program. The proposed Salary Brief was read and approved by the Executive. The Permanent Salar Committee ls to present this brie to the lov- ernment as soon as possible. A more detailed account of this brief will be published later. We hope. by means of this col- umn to keep the teachers well ln- formed as to what the Federation is doing. Any suggestions as to Convention Program particularly questionnaire may be forwarded to Mr. bowton or others members of the executive. The executive is at all times willing to consider sug- gestions or to take any steps which would be beneficial to the teachers of this province.

'I'hls done, he addressed David, who had Just regained con- sclousness. and exhorted hlnl to be brave; whereupon David. to show his appreciation for being spared, burst in a. feeble song. Once again the song is interrupted by the yells of the Indians who have landed on the island. These yells have been aroused by the discovery of the scouts rifle, and. although Hey- ward could not understand the language he did manage to hear the words “Le. Longue Carablne." Thls was the name the Indians hllr. given to a trusted and feared hlln- ter and scout of the English. And now Duncan knew _who his com- panion of the night before had been. Meanwhile, the Indians had not discovered the cave, and the trapp- ed party began to breathe easier when a slight rustle at the enn- anoe to the cave which opened 0:120 the river attracted their attention. Here stood "Le Renard SubtilP-At first, in the darkness of the cave. he did not see its occupants. but all at once a smile revealed to Heyward that they had been seen. He fired at the Indian, but. when the anoke cleared away. the Indian had vanished. The yells. which had stopped at the shot. now be- gan in greater fury. and many hands began to pull brush away from the mouth of the cave. Soon the travellers were caught. and dragged out. into the sunlight. COMMON WORDS or "sort of an objection." Correct.

BULGARIA Since Bulgaria has thrown in its lot with the Axis we might very well say something about tnls coun- try, which is really pivotal in its postion. By the Balkans we mean Turkey, Jugo-Slavla, Bulgaria. Greece. Albania, and Rumanla. Bul- garia ls the smallest of the ln- dependent Balkans. being about the size of OHIO, U. S. A., or twice the size of New Brunswick. Its population is between five and six millions. Most of the people are Bulgars, but there are about eleven percent. Turks. 'I'he capital. Sofia, has a population of about 300.000. Four-fifths of the people are farm- ers. Germany ls Bulgaria's best cus- tomer. ranklng far ahead of the next best, Italy. Thus. we see that Bulgaria has been closely associated with Germany and Italy through its trading. The sovereign of the na- tlon in Boris III. who bbcame King ln 1918. Bulgaria. as we indicated above, is strategically located ill the heart of the Balkan States with the Black Sea to the east, and the Aegean not far to the south. It has long played an important role in the affairs of southeast Europe. In i878 Bulgaria won her autonomy (self-government) from Turkey; and later her independence. In the boundary settlements after the World War, during which Bul- gar‘1 was allied with Germany. this nation lost to Greece the southern stretch of land that gave her a1- cess to the Aegean Sea. It is fills area to which Bulgaria has recent- ly laid, claim, plus certain others in Jugo-Slsvia in the west. In the north-east the region of DOBRUJA. which w"; transferred 0o Rumanla after her intervention in the sec-f ond Balkan War. 1913. was regain- ed by Bulgaria in I940 after lul- manlafls great loss of territories to other neighbors. LEIGHTON MCCARTHY, K. O.- This prominent Toronto lawyer has been recently named new Canadian Minister to Washington. He suc- ceeds our former Minister, Luring Christie. who has had to relinquish his position, because of ill-health. One noteworthy chan e lrl the of- fice of the Canadian illisteristhat Mr. McCarthy has been made a Privy Councillor because his job will involve very confidential duties in war time. His position, la there- fore, more eminent than that of his predecessors of recent years. SIR FREDERICK BANTING. It was with the greatest regret that we read of the death of our most scientist. Sir Frederick Banti of Toronto. In oollsbon- tion wi h Dr. Best, he was sucoeal- ful in the discovery of the insulin treatment for diabetes. He was on his way to mlgland to discuss oer- tain scientific matters with the government; and at this critical moment. in the war, his untimely death is a great blow to the Brit- lath Empire and the world in gen- er . EDEN and DILL -Anthony Eden and Blr John Dill have been talk- ing diplomatic matters over with the governments of Greece and Tur- key. After the discussions in Ankara, ‘Turkey, it was made known .that Turkey has in no way failed lln her agreement with any prom- made to Britain. In other words, Britain and Turkey have reached full agreement on. all mat- ters pertaining to the Balkans. and |tha eastern Mediterranean. While Eden and Dill were in Ankara. [Sir Stafford Crlpps, British am- bassador to Moscow. flew to Tur- key to meet the two eminent Brit- fshers. Turkey has recently declar- ed that she will oppose with her arms any move to destroy her ln- dependence. In the words of ner foreign minister.

Dur- lng the past week, Turkey has milled the waters of the Dal-dan- elles. Likewise. the Greeks as a re- sult of the discussions with Eden and Dill. have made it known that they will oppose any attempt by any nation to overrun their territory. The Greeks are not officially at war with Germany. but with Italy, a partner in the Axis. It is for this reason that the British have re- frained to use Greek bases against the Germans in Rumanla. This bombing of so-called German terri- tory (German controlled) would give the Germans an excuse for decal-log war on the Greeks. The Germans have massed about 150.- 000 men at the Greek-Bulgarian frontier, and the Greeks in pre- paration for a possible invasion of its territory by the Germans have rushed about 100,000 men to oppose the attack from the Bulgarian north. Just at present (Thursday) it would seem that Russia is tak- ing a more prominent part. in op- kans. Whether Stalin will risk any decided opposition that might in- volve him in a war with Germany only remains for the future to re- veal, But at present it would seem that Russia ls becoming more con- cerned over Germany's having control over Romanian ports on the Black Sea; and unquestionably now as in the past. she is dia- metrically opposed to Germany's having control over the Dardanelles. This may be one reason why Ger- man diplomats have followed in the footsteps of Eden and Dill to try to win favor in the eyes of the Turks during their present discus- sions in Ankara.
