Vol. III. No. VI. Mount Hope, Ontario, September 1944
Editorial
This is the last issue of the "Meteor". In spite of the odd difficulties, the job of producing the Station Magazine has been a happy privilege. The vitality of Mount Hope has been reflected in the support we have always received from all sides, and particularly from P.S.I.
It is hoped that this souvenir issue will be instrumental in keeping fresh our many memories of the Unite, and, with that in view, a greater number of photographs have been included.
We thank all those who have helped us to make the "Meteor" part and parcel of our stay at Mount Hope.

The Editor Speaks
Once more the troubled globe has moved round its orbit, leaving us in our Northern Hemisphere exposed less to the sun and more to the elements. New-comers to the camp will have heard countless rumours and stories of the terrible hardships they will have to undergo during the next six months and the M.O. has doubtless been genning up for his unusual lecture on frostbite. Thus it will become increasingly difficult to put the "accent on sport," especially as we-and the synthetic men- are growing too big for our Drill Hall. The swimming pool, too, will lose its popularity for, although the water will be warm, swimming in a balaclava seems to be taking it a little too far ...
