Small Tin Can Drums
You will need empty, round tin

the greater volume and the deeper

To put the finishing touches on
the drum you will need flat white

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

yet 'very few say all they mean for

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.

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-

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.

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

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,

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.

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

lags, assistance with tranapertatiork•
and boarding problems, recreationr-
al therapy and many other :ser-

Christians have long taken plea,'

tian who with stranded alone on a;

In his "Voyages" he recounts•his •
1008 efforts to locate the exact
site of Jacques Cartier's habitation,

opinion that this river. (St

Cartier wintered," states Samuel,

things show clearly that there was;
