Whistling Is
A Dying Art
Listen for a moment; is any-
body whistling near you? Pro-
bably not. Despite the popular-
ity of wolf whistles, most people
have been whsitling less since
the war, says an expert
His researches in Britain and
on the Continent suggest that
really tuneful whistling is rap-
idly becoming a dying art. That's
a pity, because many medical
men say that whistling improves
both health and temper.
Whistling is also a pretty sure
guide to the state of one's
nerves. A nervy, run-down per-
son can rarely produce a sus-
tained whistle, One London
doctor who recognizes this
sometimes mystifies this women
patients who complain of "ner-
ves" by asking them to whistle.
In 1923 a Frenchman named
Trotobus achieved a world re-
cord whistling for 9 hours
45 minutes, In Cologne, soon
after the first World war, the
headmaster of a German school
was arrested by occupying
French troops because he al-
lowed a schoolboy to whistle ,a
'derisive melody while French
troops -were passing.
Last year a whistled S 0 S
saved two lives near Padstow,
Cornwall. A man and his nine •:`
year-old son found themselves
trapped in a small crevice on a
220 ft. cliff. Both were good
whistlers, so together they
whistled 'a sustained S 0 S for
help.
Their whistling was heard by
a man on the beach. He called
the coastguards, who hauled the.,
couple" up by rope.

was a foreigner, but he soon . -

Girl students at the university
waitresses at the cafes he visited
end even. married women sllop-

embarrassing interest in his
finely Chiselled, features, his dark
*yes, his Orly Week hair and
tine physique.,
As he studied in the University
library, he would suddenly look
up to find a girl student's en=
raptured eyes on him, When he
went to a movies little groups
of girls Would contriVe to: Change

This general adoration began
to ''worry him and interfere -with
his Studies. He became desper-

Off he went to the hairdretter
and said: "Please shave my head

but did as he was reduestecl.
The lovesick girls gasped in

Good Eating--
Good For Health
If only there were tome truth
in the old saying that "fish is
brain feed", what a nation of'"
quiz kids we would be! For, th,t,i
fact of the matter Is, Canadians,
are eating more fish these clays,
A connotation of elegance is
replacing the "poor man's" label
that used to be associated wth
fish and fish dishes. This is ye-
fleeted not only in the increased
ill the
nsecaefnosticimpptieocni aibtyut raelsst!
aurnnts which have sprung up
;n most large cities,
Annual Per capita constimP,
ti011 of fish increased four
pounds during the period 1944-
54, raising the rate from 9.8 to
13.3 pounds. Moreover, the fish-
ing industry hopes to boost this
figure considerably over the
next generation,
Perhaps the most spectacular
acceptance of a fish product is
the over-night rise to promin-
ence of fish sticks, Sales in
Canada last year exceeded
5,000,000 pounds and estimates
for the United States for 1955
run as high as .89,000,000. En-
couraging from the Canadian
point of view is the fact, that a
large part of this volume is
represented by Canadian fish
supplied to U.S. processors in
block" form.
A peculiarity of fish sticks is
that the characteristic flavor of
fish is so modified that the food
appeals to people who don't
ordinarily care for fish. Between
the bread crumbs, cooking oil
and the seasoning, it hardly
seems to matter what fish is
- used.
The industry believes that
Canadians will eat more fish
if they are assured of a product
of consistently superior quality
and freshness. Hence, the at-
tention being paid to this aspect
of consumer requirements.
In the early stages of fish
marketing the most critical
phase now is stowage time at
se a. The Atlantic fisheries
scientists feel that the mpst im-
portant thing being done to
raise the quality of the fish in
retail stores is to have 'a higher
percentage of better quality fish
arrive at the fish plant. In all,
of the research board's work the
underlying thought has been to
discourage holding , the fish
aboard trawlers or fishing
schooners for any period longer
than absolutely essential.
Homemakers; too, should re-
member that most fish is .tastier
when cooked as it comes from
the water. It isn't necessary to
tenderize fish or to cook it in a
slow oven to bring out the best
in flavor. A few minutes in a
hot oven or a quick fry in deep
fat is the best advice to follow
in cooking fish. Its flavor is
inherent in its freshness and
tenderness is natural, not in-
duced.
Nevertheless, the development
of packaged frozen foods offers
the brightest new _opportunity
for the industry. It permits
properly frozen and handsomely
packaged seafood products to en-
joy the same economy of mass
distribution as related frozen
food items. Fish and chips is
the newest dish to join such
innovations as fish sticks and
fish cakes.
To retain the quality of frozen'
fish, packaging protection must
be provided. It must guard
against Inoisture losses as well
as the loss of vitamins and vola-
tile flavor, It must prevent
exposure to the air which results

A pickpocket can be spotted

World's" Champion
Stowaway
The .world's champion stow-
away—a brisk young German
named Hans Etard—has smug-
gled himself into seventy-eight
ships, has illicitly sailed ' the
seven seas and travelled,• passage
free, over 100,000 miles. And is
only in his early thirties!
Hans started stowing away
when he was only eight years
old—hiding in a barge up the
River Rhine for fifty miles and
living on apples!
learned -a.neat stowaway tech-
nique.
"The trick is to select a
princely vessel where high pas-
senger rates are likely to leave
several first-class staterooms un-
occupied. One can then cross the
Atlantic in comfort."
Hans bought a pet monkey and
trained it to climb down a ven-
tilator shaft and steal food for
him from the galley.
One day, however, a chef not-
iced the monkey and followed it.
The animal's entry into the
stateroom nearly gave the show
away, but Hans hid in a ward-
robe and managed to escape
discovery.
His pet was held hostage, and
Hans was at his wits' end to
think out a plan of rescue.
Eventually in desperation he
he borrowed a stewart's white
jacket, marched boldly into the
galley and grabbed the Monkey
saying "Skipper wants this!"
and made tracks to his new hid-
ing place as fast as he could.
AGENTS, WANTED to his table to be ' eaten with
a chicken stew, highly peppered
and with tomato arid onion
blended into it
The poor man's meal, or
"chop" as he calls it, will be a
humbler version, maybe on
Sundays only, of the same dish,
with the fowl replaced by ,a
-cheaper meat , bought in th
market.
Rice in Freetown is also
scarce because it is finding its
way upcountry to ,the .diamond
areas, where unscrupulous deal-
eri" sell it at a shilling (14 cents)
a tinful.
In the markets, rice is meas-
ured out in ,round ,tins ,made to
hold 50 cigarettes: A tinZul of
rice costs fourpence (about four
cents) -- officially. But market
inspectors Seem 't be winking
at prices of ,fivepence, sixpence,
and Upwards.
There is an official rice mill
in Freetown where housewives
can go to buy, if they are pre-
pared to line up for hours, but
even there one hears talk of
black-market dealing.
Upcountry there Are two rice
depots, and more may be
opened.
The government is also trying
to step up rice production by
introducing mechanical means
of 'cultivation. But the 4 lure of
the diamond hunt remains
strong.
There is considerable local
feeling that an inquiry should
be set up into the distribution
of rice, but nothing has been
done so far. Meanwhile, the man
in the street has to make do
with a tinful less rice to go
with his Sunday pepper stew.
SAFES
Prefer Diamonds
To Growing mice
The glamour Of the diamond
fields is tempting farm workers
from the paddy fields. The pro-
duction of. rice, Sierra Leone's
basic food, now has fallen to a
point where it must import what
it can from Burma, Pakistan,
and Italy.
Illicit diamond digging, deal-
ing, and smuggling have grown
to alarming proportions. Offi-
cial measures to combat them
do not seem to have been par-
ticularly effective.
Poor and rich alike include
rice in their diet in this British
colony on the northwest coast
of Africa.
For the rich man it may come
A man should read just as in-
clination leads him, for what' he
reads as a task will do him lit-
tle good —Samuel Johnson.
This whetted his appitide for
adventure. His next exploit was
to travel under the seat of a
luxury express from Cologne to
Berlin.
An old lady, a soldier, and a
small boy sat above him. When
the boy dropped a chocolate and
stooped to pick it up, Hans was
nearly discovered, but he man-
aged to reach Berlin undetected,
and wangled his way past the
barrier by pretending that he
had been separated from his
mother.
For three days he saw the
city in style, snatching free rides
on buses. At night he slept in a
palatial hotel, boldly entering
and sneaking into a empty bed-
ream.
As he grew older, Hans in-
creased in daring. He crossed the
Continent from Cologne to Con-
stantinople on goods vans,
changing from one to another,
and earned his bed and board'
by telling his story in vivid
fashion to travellers at inns
along the route.
Then he turned his attention
to the open sea—and found op- , portur itieS galore.

tic crossings," he says, "and
