For the Queen's Coronation the nation fleeted e bill of $3,800,000, As well as the special fittings requirotl in the Abbey and decoration of the route to and. from Westminster, that sum included the cost of royal visits to Wales and Scotland and a re-.

Arthrith: November 15th is "blite:' day set by the Ontario Division of the Canadian Arthritis and Rhee tunatism Society for its $500,000 fund-raieing campaign to STOP arthritis '".in our time". The campaign will be conduct- ed in selected areas of the pro- vince in which the Soeisity is not already participating in Com- uninity Chest or similar drives. Major-General Chris Yokes, one of Canada's most distin- guished soldiers in World War IT, is Campaign Chairman. General Yokes stresses the great need for an intensified. fight to STOP arthritis. and, out- lined the objectives of the earn- PAign. "Recent government statistics" he stated "indicated that arthri- tic and rheumatic diseases total- ly disable 50;000 Canadians and partially disable a further 115,- 000. This results in an annual loss of 9,000;900 man days of work, well over $75;000,000 in wages, The loss to the Canadian economy is incalculable, in the words of Dr. Wallace Graham, SALLY'S WAS,.., For Half-Sizes PRINTED PATTERN Clean Doorsteps With Milk!

The Queen's wedding, when she was Princess Elizabeth, was ruled by austerity in contrast with expenses cut to a .mirsimum. In November, 1947, Britain eas still a rationed country, suffer , ing greatly from wartime short- ages. The banners and decora- tive flags which had hung in the Mall were offered on per- manent loan to the regiments of which the young Princess was Coronet-in-Chief. Thus today, • these romantic banners with their yellow and white background and wine col- oured -carte-eche centres, bearing the cipher EP between a coro- net and Tudor rose, are greatly treasured in Canada by the 48th Highlanders and Le Regiment de la Chaudiere, and in South Afri- ca by the Royal Durban Light.

Assembly, and again Sunday morning. Sun- day afternoon the Juniors ar- rived for supper (Bob, Joy, Ross and Cedric), Monday morning we meant to be up in good time as we were expecting the elec- trician again. He came all „right but we were still sleeping! This morning, thank goodness, the warm, humid weather seems to have come to an end, I hope so, anyway. As soon as I realized the temperature was down I shut all the windows and doors and turned on the heat to get the dampness out of the house, Sat, urday morning the humidity was 100 percent. Rain, that we need- ed so badly, is the one thing we didn't get. Hardly a drop have we had in five weeks. Every- thing looks dried up and lifeless. The trees are evidently devoid of sap and the leaves are drop- ping disconsolately to the ground. Well, the electrician has just finished, Tonight we shall be able to floodlight the driveway and front entrance, if necessary.

Saves Money is= While on holiday in Yorkshire a short time ago a London man was surprised to see a housewife cleaning her front doorstep with mills, She told him that her mother did this before her and that it had long been a custom in parts of Yorkshire. Housewives find that milk gives the stone a dark colour which is set off by a white edge. During the war- time milk shortage a Batley housewife was fined for continu- ing the custom. You've probably heard of beauties of the past bathing • themselves in milk to make their skin silkier, but did you know that a train has been run on milk? When a former president of the Chicago Board of Health, Dr. H. N. Bundesen, asserted that milk contained enough energy to drive a train, he was challenged to prove it. He was loaned a complete train—engine and eleven coaches —and he had a quantity of sour milk dried and made into bri- quettes. Two tons of this unique "white coal" was then used to fire the engine with its train of carriages on a scheduled run of nearly twenty-six miles, Brooches and buttons are often made from milk, or casein as it is known after the protein has been treated chemically. A Mil- waukee manufacturer made blankets from it. Other familiar articles made from casein include umbrella handles, brush-backs, toothbrushes and spectacle frames, knitting needles and fountain pens.

Everything comes at once around here. Last week we spent considerable time listening to speeches from the United Na- tions General Assembly. Listen- ing to Khrushchev was time wasted. But President Eisen- hower's speech I wouldn't have missed for anything, Never be- fore has he delivered such a forceful, inspiring address, There have been times when we felt he was lacking in leadership — but not last week. He seemed full of vigor and purposefulness. It looks as if he may yet termi- nate his official duties in a blaze of glory, And then what? Who will be the next president and what will be the U.S. foreign policy under his guidance? Only time will show, Well, sandwiched in between International affairs came our own little problems, We had to have an electrician in to do a bit of extra wiring. Have you noticed, no matter how well a house is wired by the original owner, outlets never seem to be in the right place to suit the next Owner. Our only outlet in the hall was from overhead lights which were far too bright if we wanted to take a peek at sleeping visiting grandsons. So we had an outlet put in near the floor, Now we can plug in a nightlight that will give enough light without waking- young sleepers. We also had a plumber in to give us an estimate on a new eavestroughing job, Before that Partner had undertaken a little plumbing himself. Water from the kitchen sink wasn't getting away faster enough so pipes and gooseneck and so on had to be disconnected and cleaned, Unfortunately Partner hadn't got a rod long enough to do the job so we had to get a plumber to finish it after all. Then one night Art phoned to ask if we would like some good, hard maple for our fireplace. A tree had to be removed from their front lawn as roots were interfering with. the sewerage system. Well, of course Partner couldn't say no to an offer like that. So, in due trine the wood arrived, in three foot lengths and various thicknesses. Art brought out several loads in the trunk of his eel'. Each succeed- ing day Partner got to work splitting the logs. Now he has a lame back as a result. Anyone who has tried splitting hard green maple will understand why. We also had two unexpected jobs. One was baby-sitting for a young neighbour couple — until two-thirty in, the morning! And I had d pheasant to cook. Is this open season for pheas- ants? I wouldeit know. Appa- rently the pheasant didn't know either, Anyway it inets its death, in broad daylight, by flying slap-bang into the windshield Of a neighbour's car. It was near his home so lie promptly bled, plucked and cleaned it, 'Then his wife felt so sorry the bird had met death hi such a strange way that she didn't want to eat it. So her husband brought it over to me, And that is how we cattle to have roast pheasant for Sunday dinner. It was a little too fresh to be as lender as it should' have been but atilt it was tasty, It was a lovely bird — a cock pheasant — with more meat On its breast than a three- pound chicken.
