In the twenty years since 1938 the increase has been 136,000 or 309%, This compares with our population growth since 1938 of 55%. During the last twenty years, in peace and war,, good times and bad, Ottawa has added to the public payroll an average of 6,800 every year, Mr. Fox, the President of the St. Lawrence Corporation Limit- ed, put these figures together for his address to the Annual Meet- ing of Shareholders last Spring. It is worth mentioning, that all these figures are for ordinary government departments only, They do not include armed serv- ices, government agencies or Crown corporations such as C.B.C. In 1958 C.B.C. alone had 6,3000 employees and took $41 million out of taxes for its capi- tal costs and operating deficit. The July 4th issue of Maclean's Magazine comments that the three levels of government in Canada today employed 618,000 men and women — more than three times the size of the la- bour force in the entire iron and steel products idustry, the coun- try's largest manufacturing group. This represents more than 10% of the total labor force in Canada. The cost of this machin- ery, according to the article in question, is $200 million a month. The fact that our Civil Service is growing at such an astonishing rate is a matter for very serious consideration. Every added cent of bureaucratic cost adds that much to the cost of production. We in. Canada, because of our considerable dependence on fore- ign trade, must be particularly tost conscious. Canadian growth depends upon our ability to de- velop larger domestic and fore- ign markets. — From The Cana- dian Chamber of Commerce, News Letter. Guns Can Be Fun —Also Deadly! Vacationists can have a lot of fun and improve their shotgun marksmanship, too, with a hand- trap, a carton of "clay" targets, a couple of boxes of shells and the favourite shotgun. With this outfit every type of game can be simulated. Here again, as always In shooting, be sure of your back- ground. There may be a picnick- ing perty on the other side f The hill, No matter what type of shoot- ing iron you take along on your vacation this year, bear in mind these firearm safety regulations. They are simple easy-to-follow and right to the point, Treat every gun with the res- pect due a loaded gun. Carry only unloaded guns, into your automobile, boat, camp or home, Always carry your gun so that you can control the direction of the muzzle, even if you stumble. Be sure of your target before you pull the trigger. Never point a gun at anything you do not want too shodt. Never leave your gun un- attended unless you unload it first. New climb a tree or fence with a loaded gun. Never shoot at a flat, hard sur- face or the surface of water. Now is the time when bus windows that wouldn't close all winter can't be opened, burning rate. Unburned propel- lant can block the nozzle, or flame can burn a hole in the thin casing. As any Cape Cana- veral man knows, not even the pros can anticipate all possible ways for the rocket's restrain- ed explosion to become unre- strained. Their motto: "Always assume that a rocket will ex- plode." Mixing propellants from drug- store or agricultural chemicals is just as perilous. A.R.S. en- trusts its members with a long list of dangerous combinations, urges that the list be kept se- cret so that youthful amateurs will not get any new ideas. Particularly touchy are propel- lants that must be mixed hot, Another bad actor, already well known to most kids: ordinary household match heads, which are apt to explode disastrously while being crammed into a makeshift rocket chamber. At first, A.R.S. hoped to make hobby rocketry safe by expert supervision, asked scientists and military men to help the ama- teurs. But now it thinks rocket; are best left alone altogether. The game has grown too big and too dangerous. All t o 1 cl, says A.R.S., some 10,000 ama- teurs are fiddling around with rockets today. During a sam- ple six - week period, 162 of them were seriously injured. At that rate, a teen-age rocket- eer has one chance in seven of getting hurt each year. A New. Dome For The Holy Rock Under the hot shimmer of July in, Jerusalem,' a giant crane swung endlessly back and forth lifting new girders above• an old shrine, The Dome of the Rock, at Jerusalem's eastern edge, was to have a new covering, Yet as riggers scrambled over the site, assembling the scaffolding and preparing huge aluminum beams for erection, a controversy raged ' Over the project, with loud cries that one of the world's holiest spots was being defiled instead of restored. This was the place where Abrae Ilene offered up his son Isaac as • sacrifice, and was restrained by an angel of the Lord. Solortion is said to have Used the rock as the foundation Of his temple. Herod built there the temple from which Jesus drove the money - changers. Mohammed rested by the rock after his night flight from Mecca. Sacred to Jews, Christians and Moslems alike, the rock has rare- ly lacked a noble covering: The present dome dates back to ,the great editece elected by Abdul- Melek Ibn Marwan, Caliph of Darieascies, in 691, who used up seven years' tax revenue from Egypt to realize' his dregrit In 1099; crusaders mounted a gold cross on the dome and turned it into a church: Later, Saladin Woe it back for Islam, lovingly coated the interior archee with mosaic, the Wane With Marble, Suleiman the Magnificent ordered the ex- terior walls covered with Olen- did blue tiles.

The 52-year-old actress, whose role as the Montmartre street urchin in the silent movie "Seventh Heaven" not only earned her the Oscar but also made famous the romantic H10- vie team of Janet Gaynor and Charles Farrell, will make her stage debut this fall in the ,Broadway production of Joseph Hayes' new play, "The Midnight Sun." She will portray the mo- ther of a wanderlust youth who returns to the Midwest to re- establish his roots. What are the chances of a movie star making a late comeback on the stage? "It's no more dangerous than going on the Hollywood •Thruwey," Miss Gaynor said.

Playing a listless game from the baseline and continually double faulting, Wimbleton champion Alex Olmedo went down to a straight-set defeat at the hands of lesser-ranking Abe Segal of South Africa in the national clay-court tennis tournament in Chicago. As the Davis Cup champion stalked from the court, the fans booed and tour- nament officials banned h 1 m from participating in the up- coming doubles matches "in the interest of better tennis." Olme- do said later that he had been "mentally tired" but admitted: "I did not play as hard as I could. Next week I will apolo- gize to Segal personally and in public." But, he added angrily: "It is human to make mistakes but the officials had no right to boo. The officials themselves were running by the court boo- ing. That made me more mad." Dangerous Job • For Amateurs Much of the early progress in rocketry came from- inspired amateurs who sometimes blew themselves up — along with an occasional bystander — in the interests of science. But now the professional descendants of • the pioneers think the day of the amateur is over, are appal- led at the risky stunts of rocket buffs from 16 to 60. So serious is the situation that the Ameri- can Rocket Society has issued a 76-page booklet cataloguing the dangers and advising the amateur to stop. Said A.R.S.: "All practical means must be taken to prevent the manufac- ture of propellants or rockets by amateurs." Rockets get their zip by means of a restrained explo- sion; the rapidly burning pro- pellant must generate hot gases at precisely the right pressure. If the pressure is too low, the rocket does not fly; too high, and it bursts like a bomb. Very slight defects or miscalculations can raise the pressure to the danger point. The rocket can explode if the nozzle is a few thousandths of an inch too small. A solid propellant may crack, sharply increasing the
