The young man threatening her, an escaped eon- Viet, was wild-eyed, and dirty, bespattered with blood and plainly in fear of his life. He hint broken into her home as a refuge from the. law, "I can't go out," he declared agitatedly. "'The cops have .tor- doped off this building. They're creeping in on me now. They'll. Fet me. They'll shoot me to oats!" "Oh no,, they won't," said the old lady firmly. "I'll see to that, rust you stay here, keep away from the window and, if you want to live, don't do anything foolish." So, leaving the terrified but trigger-happy young criminal in her living-room, she stepped out on, to her garden path, and called to the waiting police, They feared a trick, but relaxed a little when they saw it was just an old lady. "Give the boy a chance," she pleaded to the police chief. "I'll bring him out alive." At this as- tonishing offer, they were some- what sceptical at first. But she was adamant, and making them promise not to shoot, unless shot at, she went back into the house to keep her bargain. "There, I've fixed it," she said to the young fugitive, who was still brandishing his revolver, and staring at her menacingly, "You mean they won't hurt me?'"*he asked. "Of course not. But just step this way and throw your pistol out of the window." He meekly obeyed and then, as if he were a small child, she led him out of the house and delivered hlm into custody. Questioned afterwards, Miss Freeland, of Phoenix, Arizona, astonished everyone by attribu- ting her cool-headed behaviour to her fondness for an old chair. "I didn't want to see him shot," she said, "because if he had been it might have made bloodstains m my rosewood chair. The chair is a real antique. It dates back to 1780 and I am very fond of it."

Under somewhat colder conditions in January the feed conversion was 4.32 pounds per dozen for 4,667 dozen eggs.

Quite unafraid, she raised, the alarm, and he scuttled out of the shop, Most women would be glad to have achieved so much, but net so Miss Cox,, Clearly, a woman of remarkable nerve, she then joined in a general hunt for him with a truck, and when he ran across some fields, she mounted a tractor to continue the pursuit. Ile was finally caught, For her gallantry, Miss Cox was re- warded by the Postmaster Gen- eral with a notecase and fifteen guineas. A woman's courage and quick wits also averted a nasty situa- tion at Turau mission, seventy miles north of Nairobi, a few weeks ago. Mrs. Frances Phil- pott, the young wife of a Scot- tish minister, was preparing a meal when three Africans, bran- dishing vicious-looking knives, rushed into her kitchen. She countered their assault by seiz- ing a pot off the stove and fling- ing boiling cabbage into their faces, Scalded and surprised, the dusky bandits dashed out, but, on the veranda, ran into her husband who had been alarmed by her cries. They slashed at him savagely. Fortunately, they inflicted only minor cuts on his arms, and after treatment at the nearest hospital he was not de- tained, His gallant wife was un- harmed. Proof again that courage is no prerogative of youth comes from Mrs. Annie Minns, a seventy- year-old widow who, when at- tacked in her home at New Mal- den, Surrey, grabbed the hands of a gangster who was trying to gag her. Spinning round, she seized his hair and tugged with all her might. After that treat- ment, her assailant fled. "Call me a wiry widow," she said afterwards, relating her ex- perience goodsliumourecilY, and expressing the hope that she had not hurt the would-be thief too much. Sir Richard Pim, head of the Royal Ulster Coristabtilary, was' cruising on Strangford Lough, Co. Down, with his wife, when, he suddenly heard from the cabin a queer "plop" near the, bbat's engine. He: discovered a burning fuse, which was con- nected to a gelignite charge, only a few inches 'away. In few seconds, a shattering explo- sion must take place. Quickly Sir Richard snipped off the fuse wire and disaster was averted. It was the second at- ,.tempt made on hie- life.,by, the I.R.A. within eighteen months. Ingeniously, the plotters had re- lied on the exhaust pipe, when heated by the engine running at full speed, to set light to the fuse. But, they did not bargain for Sir - Richard's resourceful- ness. It needs courage• and coolness of a special sort to tackle a would-be suicide. A London policeman, not long ago, found a woman in her nightdress standing on the window ledge of a five-storey block in Lon- don. "I'm going to 'jump," she screamed, as she saw him. "Oh no, you're, not,", he an- swered. "There's a little boy here who wants your autograph. You'd better sign it first." It was a gamble would it suc- ceed? The woman, an• actress, stood still, puzzled if not flat- tered by this odd request. As the policeman came forward with an open book, in reality his notebook, 'she :remained hes- itant, giving him the chance to grab her by the legs and pull her to safety.

Want To Live To Be Two Hundred? Scientists in. France are jubi- lant because they believe they have discovered a new serum against old age which harmless- ly peps up people of seventy years and over. They report that it is having remarkable results; in time it .may even rival the African tribe's "Never grow old" serum, This new serum is now being used for research in a t'aris hospital where there are a 'num- ber of old people. It is said to be capable of restoring muscular strength, of improving physical health and Of livening up the mental faculties. It also gives old people strength. to fight in- ternal organic changes, say the diseoverers, a man and 'a "woman scientist. The serum arrives at the hos- pital in powder form after be- ieg prepared at near-zero tem- peratures. A doctor adds water and injects it into a patient, the dose being repeated over a per- iod of several days. "The serum mares you feel younger and full of vitality, even when you are over seven- ty," say the scientists, who are justifiably proud of their achievement, Researeh into the almost in- scrutable Secrets of longevity have been. speeded up since tile wet.

Matthews, public relations di- rector Of Religion in Ameri- can Life Program: "We are not satisfied,with the usual answers people give to the pollstakers asking about worship attendance. We want the real reasons why 48 million attend and 56 million don't. We need a new technique for finding out." This technique of getting to hidden fears and needs belongs to MR. ,It has already proved successful in probing the con- sumer's mind to boost commodity sales. And it may be able to do the same 'fob for the,churches- once a few matters are cleared up. First on the list of problems is money. A full-scale depth probe will cost about $50,000. "This is no project to be car- ried out by part-time poll-takers making extra money," according to Daniel Yankelovich, whose firm of Nowland & Co. may get the job to divine public feeling about worship. "This kind of work requires highly trained psychologista and interviewers who will spend at least three hours with a subject," Yankelovich said. He explained that depth inter- viewing is a five-part technique. There are direct questions fol- lowed by systematic exploration of each answer, reconeiliation of inconsistencies betWeen the two, followed by psychological tests and analyzed at the end of each day's probing. "No two days of interviewing are alike,' he said. "We change the approach arid emphasis ac- cording to what we learn as we go along. The result is a full pro- file of all theo deep feelings. It is this result which presents. the church people with their Sec- ond major problem: morality. Is it morel, religious institu- tions ask themselves, to manipu- late people by putting the finger on exposed heeds and fears? „While some of the 66 Million non-chtirch-goers claim this is What chin ches haVe been doing for years, learikelovich answers the question in a different way.

The allsmash ration used was formulated to be complete in all, dietary nutrients, including the necessary mineral eupplements. Eighty birds, confined to indi- vidual laying cages, were alloted to each of the following treats ments: All-mash with no added grit; mash plus 15 grams of grit per bird fed once each month; mash containing one per cent grit; mash with grit fed free- choice. * The results show that egg production and feed requise- ments to produce a dozen eggs were not affected by grit supple- mentation, Average body Weight and egg weights were similar in all treatment groups and egg shell thiCkness was not improv- ed by grit feeding, Under the conditions of this experiment the extra cost and labour in- volved in adding grit to an all- mash ration was not justified.

No healthy person wants to be continually alone, shut oft from others. Solitary confine- went is a dreaded penalty fOt prisoners. The human spirit cries out for fellowship. This is evi- dent from the many clubs and associations in society. There has never been a more delightful and unselfish feliovr- ship than that which character- ized the early ohurch. "They, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, di& eat their meat with gladnesit and singleness of heart." When financial need arose for some who had remained at Jerusalem" longer than they intended, some even sold their property that all might have a share of the neces- sities of life. The widows of the Grecian Jews were cared for when the need arose. But the fellowship did not exist simply to protect or advance their own interests. They were witnesses to tell others of Jesus Christ that they, too, might share the joys of sins forgiven. The fel- lowship that is doing something worthwhile for others is always the happiest. Paul emphasizes this outlook in such statements as, "We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak," and, "Let every one please his neigh- bor for his good to edification." Note that we are not raged to be 'men-pleasers' but to please our neighbor for his good. The morally weak often want what is not for their good. We are not to, be a party to their further' failure. The Christian spirit makes fox good fellowship. The Christian is kind and forgiving. He bolds no grudges or spite. He does not tell smutty stories. What he says and does has an influence for geed. When this spirit prevat4 among nations there will be * ditterans • red and suspicion will Weapons of war will be turned to instruments of peace. Tioi world needs Jesus Christ. a N The most commonly observed olf-flavour in eggs is described as a "fishy flavour." Poor feed- ing practice on the part of the producer is frequently blamed for this condition. T. M. Mac- I ri t y r e, Experimental Farm, Nappan, Nova Scotia, points out that this is unfortunate, since in most cases off-flavours in eggs are acquired after the eggs leave the producers. * * Too much fish or oily fish meal is very rarely the cause of off-flavoured eggs because much larger quantities of fish oil and fish meal would have to be fed than is now included in laying rations. Experimental work has shown that up to 20 per cent fish meal had no effect on egg flavour. Nevertheless, fishy fla- vour in eggs does occur and is apparently due to some meta- bolic disturbance in t h e bird. Birds affected with this disorder have a distinct odour to their breath. Since removal of these birds from the flock is not prac- ticable, some "fishy" eggs will probably always appear on the market, N V 00 01r, **Walk
