Now Is The Time TO THINK ABOUT SUMMER REFRIGERATION A well-known slogan goes something like this—“Ask the man who owns one”. Well, the same slogan could well be applied to an ice-refrigerator. Just ask the woman who owns one , . . she’ll tell you that a mod ern ice-refrigerator has all the advantages of the more expensive types, plus many added features. We have several types of ice-refrigerators at money sav ing prices. Also a few' used ice-refrigerators for sale. E. R.

But his pride would take an awful jolt if the neigh bors knew about the skeleton in his closet. Well, kids, we finally secured some badges for the troop. The order just came through -the i other day, and included in it were button-hole badges for every member of the pack, These will be given out to each wolf cub when he has been invested. 1(We hope to invest every mem ber of the pack in a' very short time, probably within a couple of weeks. Now, you all know that in order to be invested you have to know the- cub law, pro mise, salute and the grand howl, and be able to repeat it in front of the Cubmaster at the investi ture. So, if some of you are a little rusty on any of these, re view them and know them off by heart. Last week, we prac ticed the grand howl at our meeting and everyone seemed to be able to get that easily enough. .However, if there are any questions on any part that you do not understand, don’t hesitate to ask the Cubmasters or the Assistant Cubmasters. They will try to straighten out your problems for you. ■ ■ « For the last couple of weeks, a group of the boys have been getting instruction in the com pass, anij Jn the Morse code.

It may be a little early yet, but at least they can be ^planned now. For those of you who are maybe not too sure of the cub law and promise, here they are: The promise: “I promise to do my best, to do my duty to God, and the King, to keep the law of the Wolf Cuib Pack, and to do a good turn to somebody every day."' The law; 1. The Cub gives in to the Old Wolf. 2. The Cub does not give in to ihimself.

What’s happening out in Alberta these days? Plenty! New oil is being sought and found. Money’s flowing faster. There’s lots of activity, lots of opportunity. And as a result all Canadians are better off. For instance, oil from Alberta’s new wells is expected to save 68 million U.S. dollars this year! That’s one of the big reasons for Canada’s better trade position, one of the reasons we are able to buy more U.S. goods. The new discoveries have meant lower cost operation in Alberta and Saskatchewan for farmer and industrialist, and this must ultimately benefit all of Canada. Then, too, it takes a lot of money to find oil and lots more to develop a field once it’s found. Two million dollars a week is being poured into oil exploration and development in Alberta today. That spending creates new markets for the tilings the rest of Canada has to sell. And finally let’s recall that in the war years—and after— We were dependent on foreign oil for roughly 90 per cent of our supplies. This year prairie production should exceed prairie demand. With continued effort and reasonable success it is not too much to hope the men who search for oil will make Canada self-sufficient in petroleum in years to come. Everywhere in Alberta you hear about new oil discoveries —all the more because they followed the long years when nature baffled the oil seekers. Years when men drilled holes two miles deep and found only water. Years of million-dollar disappointments. In 1947 the tide turned. First it was the Leduc fiejd .»* then the Woodbend field . * * next Redwater * . * now, still untested by time, other discoveries give new promise and the hope of still greater benefits for all Canadians^ IMPERIAL LIMITED b »-*r If you’re interested in facts ;;; Consumption of oil in Canada is the second highest in the world on a per capita basis. United States alone is higher. Canadians are using twice as much bit as in 1939 and more than three times aS much as in 1932. At the beginning of 1949 Canada Was importing 84 per cent of her oil.
