About 92% :ef CARE's aid ha'S been in food, a great part, of. it Canadian and " U.S. agricultural , surpluses;, . , . during the Past 1:8 months CARE has distributed abroad more than 11,000,000 pounds of Canadian surplus milk powder and 4,000,000 pounds of Canadian surplus tinned pork, • Currently, 30% of all contributed funds go for tools, using the word in its broadest sense. Mainstay is still the CARE package, now of- fered in over 70 varieties: $1 food parcels or students kits:- $10 farm tool and first-aid kits; $12 class- room supply kits; $20 tool kits for carpenters or mechanics; $190 brick-making machines. In addi- tion, contributions are used for a host, of special purchases: livestock, irrigation pipes, vocational train- ing machines, the mobile health units costing $11,500 tand more. ' Canadians have been offering in- creased support to the CARE programs over the years. CaSh contributions to the agency in Canada amounted to more than half-a-Million dollars in 1950. Letters of Etpprec Wiwi from hose who haee been helped, fill the ageriey's files. But perhaps an 'even greater tribute comes from the people CARE represents. One of the largest and most consistent toratibutors to CARE teeently wrote: "Yeti people in CARE have been thanking us donors for many years, May I, to a donor, state that while most of us don't take time to say so, We sincerely the/1k you for the work you are define* story. There are only six chapters in the book—they are fairly lengthy in themselves, although the entire book can be read in an evening. being under two hundred pages. There are only two titles to the chapters -- The Present and The Past, and they alternate; thus two story threads are woven separately and twisted rope-like at the end to form a climax with terrific im- pact. This is the story of one woman, known as Elizabeth Lucy, young and desirably beautiful. The search- ingfingers of the pollee push back the curtains of time briefly and reveal her real identity and a little of her early background, More of her immediate past is learned and Elizabeth Lucy emerges as a warm honest woman whose protective love ultimately causes her own death, This book is not for the squeam- ish — it is a strange mixture of evil and good. It is written deli- cately and perceptively but hints at uncontrollable dark forces. Elizabeth' Lucy is a drug addict, Henderson, the homicide investi- gator describes 'her as being "part of a girl service, , but not small- time". Her associates were others trapped as she was, perverts and racketeers. Through the darkness runs a thread of light, Elizabeth's father remembers her as "very °Peri, human . . she could always face Olings" he said, "I knew if she could make it (her life) different, she would; if she didn't, it was because she was in too far, It's easy to get involved . „ I bear her no grudge, how could I grudge her, her own pain?" Elizabeth was involved irrevocably, and knowing thig, he risked everything to save Sancl,ra, a younger vice ring mem- ber, 'Sandra was put secretly into a convent hospital: and Elizabeth made provision for her care, re- gardless of what happened to her. Her last big assignment filled her with unspoken fears, which were realized. There is breathless action in this novel. The case is presented, the story told, the implications are there—but there is no moralizing — the reader reads between the lines and infers what his heart and mind dictate. -The humid heat of a Montreal summer pervade the atmosphere and tears ache at the back of one's throat, I cannot im- agine anyone reading "The Pyx" and •not being stirred deeply. For myself, I hope that Mr, Buell will continue to write—he has attained considerable stature in his first published work, MODEL CONTEST IRS GOOD ritruEs The model contest being spon- sored by Marg's Book Shop this month is well under way with a number of entries now The contest. will see some 40 awardk 'Tiede including. four lovely trophies and 10 medals and medal- lions., The contest' 14 divided into two groups, with two divisions :in each group.

The first aid assistance plan was described by ORPA executive ineim: her Crawford Gould, Toronto, as "one Way In which pharmacists can further their efforts' to assist their fellow man. The pharmacist is a man well equipped to help In- jured people in minor emergencies, because of his close association With doctors and ibis knowledge of treatment methods." He said the first aid equmment Led by pharmaciets in ORPA will be aim- flax to the St. John Ambulance Association type. This includes splints, many types of bandages, and standard 'brand-name pharma- ceutics. "This project should get under Nyay within weeks," said Mr. Gould.

Parsonage (Fur Coat The Minister's young wife saved up the wedding fees — a dollar, two dollars. Sometimes the fee .was a 'handshake or a live chicken. Twice the fee was all of five dol- lars. The minister's wife saved the money, And at last she was able to confront the Canadian winter In a fur coat. Alas? she also confronted the congregation, and a good many women in the congregation hadn't fur coats. There was grumbling in the ranks, even though the story of careful 'saving was often told. All this happened many years ago, but the minister and his wife remember all about it very thor- oughly indeed. In that old, nasty experience, they get a strong whiff Of the fact that saving isn't ex- actly what' the copy books say. And the Minister learned about hu- man jealdusy to provide material for many a sermon, after lie was- moved 'along to another charge.
