Christian Union Marking Jubilee • A special program over Radio Station CKNX, Wingham, is among events planned by Bruce Societies of, the Christian Endeavour Union, which is' marking its dianiond jubi- lee thiS week. The Christian Endeavour Union, which 'has about 75 young people belongingain this area, had its be- ginning in Bruce County about '1000 when , a society was formed at No 'One means all he saya„ and yet 'very few say all they mean for 'Words' are slippery and thought is viscous,--Henry Brooks Adams. ends underneath so •that there are no sharp points, 4emove the paper label with hot water and dry the can thoroughly, Give it a coat of flat white paint, While this is dry- ing the design may be planned, Two coats of quick-drying enamel are recommended for finishing the drum, When the finish is thoroughly dry, (8-12 hours), cut a circular piece from the inner tube that will cover the open end of the can and overlap the sides for at'least two inches. Cut across the open end of the inner tube so as to get a large rubber band one-half inch wide. One or two people are needt ed to help in putting the head on the drum, as the circular piece of rubber must he held tightly across the open end of the can while the half-inch band is being stretched around the can twice in a figure eight fashion to hold the head in place. A little patience 'and practice will develop the necessary skill in this process. Tighten the head by placing the hands on opposite sides of the can and pulling the circu- lar head down by means of the part that paects below the band. Trim off the uneven parts leaving sufficient rubber to preVent slipp- ing and to provide for later tight- ening. Drum Sticks Sticks for these drums can be made from any available round pieces of wood 10 to 12 ,inches long and one-quarter to one-half inch thick, They should be sanded smooth and rounded at both ends, avoiding points that might be dangerous, They may be painted to match the drum, If the drum has at head on both ends, two sticks are needed, otherwise one is suf- ficient as the player holds the drum under one arm while playing. * * Large Wooden Drum "For this drum YOU' will need a :nail keg, discarded inner tube from a, bus or truck- tire, large-headed tacks or upholstery nails, and of course, your paint. Select a sturdy nail keg, one with the bands or reinforcements intact. Be sure the outside is clean and free from rough spots and then give it a coat of flat. When it is dry, finish it off with two coats of quick-drying enamel in the de- sired colors. Cut as large a circle as possible from the inner tube; it must cover the open end of the keg and extend at least two inches clown the side. Cut across the open end of the tube so as to get a large rubber band one inch wide. Several people will be needed to hold the circular piece of rubber in place while the band is being stretched tightly around the keg to hold the head in place. Tighten the' head by -pulling -down on the on•Posite.Sides•Of the" circular piece as it projects below the band and tacking it firmly in place with large tacks or nails. Tacks should be put in, every two or three inches and will hold best if put through the band and the drum head. Padded Drum Sticks A single padded beater is usually satisfactory for playing -a druin of this sort and may be made by padding the end of a piece of broom. stick or 'other round stick with. cotton, felt, or wads of cloth, Padding ean be kept in place by' means of a cloth or chamois cover tied securely to the wooden handle, Rhythm Sticks Very little is needed for these rhythm sticks. Rounds of varying length and thickness, chair rounds, broom sticks, curtain poles, etc. The sticks should be tried out by tapping theM together to find the best combination for interest- big tone effects, These may then be cut to convenient lengths-12 to 15 inches---and shaped with a nicer: of sandpaper, Points should he avoided, but slightly tapering ends are fun to Use. They may be finiAted by stab:lag, varnishing, or enamelled in gay colors and de- sign, They are especially useful for members of a large group in rhythmic play. * * Chinese Wood Blocks A small, oblong, lightweight wooden bo< such aS a cheese bon, cigar littc, etc., will be needed, You will also need braided rags, string, ribbon or other type of Cord for suspending the. block, in Order to get that delightfully hollow sound that suggests gallop. big horses trahining feet, it la necesaary to Cat long Slits, one- quarter bleb wide, MI the four 104 aides of the bek, !This may be done by boring a hole in one corner of the oblong to be removed and then 4 using a keyhole saw, hut work slowly so the wood won't split, When all four slits are made, sand the edges smooth and even with sandpaper. Drill two holes in one end of the box for the cord, which can he fastened before the cover is 'nailed on, or can be man- oeuvereci into position with -the help of a nail, Finish the wood block with one coat of dark stain (not enamel, it destroys the sound) and a coat of clear shellac or var- nish if desired, This improves the appearance but not the tone. Beater A Stick similar toa drum stick is used to play this instrument and it can be finished to match the block, pr can be given a coat of colored enamel if desired. 'a w* ' Sandpaper Blocks Now you -must have two oblong blocks of wood approximately four by six inches, and at least one- half inch thick, Medium grade or fine sandpaper for covering bot- tom and steles of the blocks will alSo he necessary. Have on hand leFge headed tactics or nails, and for handles' use draw pulls, pot cover handles or pieces of old leather belt. Put the sandpaper smoothly over the blocks, tacking it on the sides. Attach the handles so , that the hand slips in between the block and the handle, * * * Soap Shaker Rattle A wire soap shaker with a wood- en handle is used here and four round metal hells miniature sleigh bells-not the kind with the clapper. Give the shaker a coat of flat white paint and then two coats of enamel. When dry, put bells in the box-like part of the shaker and fasten. them securely by pushing' a small metal ring as far down toward the box as possible work- ing with a hammer and screw- driver, Pinch firmly into place with the pliers. Pie Tin Tambourine Now you need six or eight more tiny bells (not clapper type), a metal pie or cake tin and fine wire or cord for fastening the hells. Make noles at even distances around the edge of the pan, being sure no sharp points are left urr- d.erneath,Faaten bells to pan with fine wire or cord, leaving them loose enough to ring easily when the tambourine is used. Each hell may be fastened separately or con- tinuous cord may be used from hole to hole, If wire is used, fasten ends in a safe manner. After a coat of flat white paint 'dries, the design may be put on with enamel, '1 a Wrist Bells Colored yarn or string may be crocheted into a soft, satisfactory band: Heavy cloth, such as denim, serves equally well. You will need four to six round metal bells, not the open, clapper kind. Make a band seven inches long and one inch wide, fastening ends together securely to form a circle, Sew the bells. firmly to the hs.nd at even distances. ill We hope the whole family has fun flaking these rhythm hand instruments. However, the fun doesn't stop there. When you have each person provided with their own particular "music maker", you are all set to spend many an enjoyable winter evening.

Eliot, SOCIETY URGES EARLY DIAGNOSIS "It has always been our feeling that donors subscribe to our an- nual appeals in the hope that their money will be used to find the means of controlling cancer. Thus cancer has a prior claim on the funds we raise," said Mr. R. 13. Buckerfield, national president of the Canadian Cancer Society in a special Health Week statement to the Health League of Canada. He pointed out that the goal of $1,805,- 000 will have been reached by the end of the year, which represents an increase of 181,000 over votive- tions of the previous year. The Canadian Cancer Society is formed of thousands of volunteers in ten provinces to save lives and to help mitigate the suffering of those unfortunates who have con- tracted cancer. The society :tarries out and sup- ports vigorous programs of public education and research. The key- note of the public edueation pro- gram is "early diagnosis and treat- ment."' It is a known fact that many types of cancer (skin, mouth, breast, uterus, bowel) can be ef- fectively treated by radiation or surgery or both if the growth is diagnosed before it has spread be- yond the site of origin, By inform- ing the public of the seven cancer danger signals and by urging, with- out frightening them to watch for these, the society works to increase the percentage of cancer cures. The society also supports funda- mental research into the cause cancer, At present 78 projects are being supported through the tional Cancer Institute and a nuM7, bee of others directly by the sea eiety, When the cause of cancer is found it may he able to develop means of preventing the disease. To help cancer sufferers, Cancer;. Society volunteers are, working hundreqv of local units thretiotoot the land and provide :cancer dress- lags, assistance with tranapertatiork• and boarding problems, recreationr- al therapy and many other :ser- vices, 318-17EAR-01,1) ,10)1(l7 Christians have long taken plea,' sure in the joke about the Chris, tian who with stranded alone on a; desert island and, coming epee: ar camp where playing cards we re ,strewn about, cried, "Hurrah!

Presumably his Yor" sion was unintentional, In his "Voyages" he recounts•his • 1008 efforts to locate the exact site of Jacques Cartier's habitation, near Quebec in 1535. "I am of the : opinion that this river. (St Charles) is the place where JacqueS Cartier wintered," states Samuel, "since there are still . . . , sornc, three or four cannon halls, TheSe things show clearly that there was; a settlement: there, founded by Christians."
