It's Oust about the culmina-

is the rentals of two halls, the
Printing of two sets of d_riveta-

LNeri, at that, I could fight
my way out of the morass of
bills and face the future, shaken
but game, if this were the end
of the affair.
Put I learned, in a short but
devastating exchange with my
wife, that it's only the begin-
ring. "Well", I beamed, "at
least it'll be nice not to have to
pay for lessons next year; what
with all the expenses of sending
him to college."
"Don't be eillie" she snapped.
"Of course he's going to go on
with his music next year. He's
scarcely begun.
And I reeled' out of the room,
speechless. I could see the fu-
ture: old dad pumping the

$13 a rattle and university fees-
at $1500 a year. You see, just as

be ready to begin.

In despair, I sought out an

it all with three sons' and a

"-'Smiley, old boy," he chor-
tled, there's nothing to it. But
you've feegotteti a few itenes.
First of all, your son gets mar-
vied in third year college and
you subsidize them and the
baby, until 'he graduates. Then
there's your daughter's wed-

"It's just that this is the way

but they won't have any credit,
and you have. So they'll use

"But when do I start paying

"Don't worry about that", he
twinkled. "You can always re-
finance 'your mortgage at 18

Mrs. Jervis presented a

Evidence
Sways Suit
An interesting court case
has raised the possibility that
drivers who fail to put on
seat belts may be held legally
"negligent" in the event of
an accident leading to per-
sonal injury.
In this connection, the On-
tario Safety League points
out that although a seat belt
normally protects only the
wearer, in rare cases a driv-
er's failure to use a belt may
lead to a collision involving
many people: For instance, a
side-swipe collision, may throw
the driver out of the car, or
away from the controls, leav-
ing the vehicle to go on to a
head-on crash with another
car; if the driver is belted in
he remains at the controls, •
and may be able to avoid a
second collision,
The report of the count case
comes from N.S.C, magazine
"Traffic Safety":
"The drive Ito get people to
use—rather than sit on—their
seat belts recently received
assistance from the courts in
Sheboygan, Wis.
' A. woman was suing for in-
juries suffered in an auto-
mobile accident. Although
the car she was riding in
was equipped with seat belts,
at the time of the accident
she had not been wearing
one,
The judge reminded the."
jury that, 'according to Wis..
consin law, new ears sold in
the state must have seat belts.
"It must follow that the leg-
islature intended that these
seat belts be used", he added.
The jury found the Woman
negligent for not using her
belt and deducted ten per
cent from the damages
awarded her.
This was the first time a
jury 'had been asked to take
the Use of seat belts into ac-
count. The jury's decision to

If so, many drivers who
refuse to wear seat belts to
protect their lives may buckle.
up to protect their pocket
books."
I have the type of mind that
while I am sitting before a TV
set feeling the duck bumps
along the top of my arm react
to "Train of Murder" I am also
rearranging in my thoughts the
fact 'that "tall oil" is being.
shipped by CN to the West
Coast,' Where it will eventually
find its way to Japan' for re-
finement.
While I am trying to con-
centrate on "who done it" an-
other nook or corner under my
scalp is trying to absorb what
tall oil really is. I suppose the
two have some sort of an assoc
Wean in my mind for it isn't
so long ago that I was stand-
ing on a rampart overlooking
Hinton, Alberta, watching great
plumes of smoke belching from
the plant of Northwestern Pulp
& Power Ltd, It was a lonely
and beautiful scene and I rem-
ember remarking to my travel-
ing iompanion "Gee, what a
spot for a murder," -So perhaps
my mental process isn't so far
fetched after all.
Before I tell you about tall
oil, you might like to learn a
little about the story which has
appeared in the CBC slot tab-
bed "The Serial". I missed the
first episode simply because I
was one of hundreds waiting
patiently in Union Station, Tor-
onto, while the railways tried to
accommodate hundreds w h o
had had to abandon other
means of transportation be-
cause of a dense fog that en-
shrouded much of the Great
Lakes area. However, I caught
up with this thriller diner on
New Year's Eve and realized
I was visually aboard my fav-
ourite mode of travel.
In my considerable travel ex-
perience I have known of sud-
den death, birth, romance and
personal tragedy aboard trains
but, fortunately, the only mur-
der I've 'become acquainted with
is this one, born of the brains
of Kay Hill, well known Hali-
fax writer.
Much of the five episode's of
'this mystery-comedy were set
against the background of ON's
Super.continental train en
route from Vancouver to Mont-
real. In fact, dt was while Kay
Hill was making this trip by
CN that she conceived the idea
for the play---u drama where
all the action takes place en
the train. The new serial fea-
tured Don Francks, Beth Mor-
ris and a cast of over 50.
Kay Hill is well known in. the
Maritimes and nationally for
her comedy, Three to Get Mar-
ried, arid for the. series on In-
dian legends, Gloos'cap and his
People.
And Now For Tall 011
It says here in a brief news
'release that a new' export
moverient for Canada's public-
ly owned railway has begun. It
is the result of a. long tern:
-transaction between the pulp
and power company at Hinton,
mentioned above, and the Mit-
sui Co. Ltd. Vancouver, to ship
the first-ever "tall oil" to Jap-
an.
Tall oil is a fatty acid resin,
a by-product of the pine forest
industry. The initial crude
shipment left VatiCativer aboard
