LOVE ON A PLATTER One of the most popular decorations for porcelain and earthenware is the Willow pat- tern, adapted by the English from the Chinese in the 18th century. This pattern tells the love story of Chang, the writer, and Li -chi, a mandarin's daughter, who eloped to an is- land teahouse surrounded by willow trees. When the girl's father pursued the lovers, they were changed by the gods into a pair of turtledoves. In the design, the doves are seen fly- ing away to safety above the willow trees.

A Matter of Polies If all those licensed operat- ors of motor vehicles in the ten provinces of Canada who oper- ate their vehicles without ade- quate insurance coverage again- st contingencies arising ii. the course of such operation, were laid head to foot along the Trans -Canada Highway they would, it is believed, look very foolish. But not half as foolish as they would look -- and feel - as they struggled over the years to make good, out of their per- sonal resources, the damage they might do in one of those split seconds of bad luck, or bad judgment, from which no one can promise himself im- munity. So great, indeed, is the like- lihood ikesliltood under present conditions that every driver will be involv- ed in some kind of an accident sooner or later, that insurance has become almost as much a necessity as gas and oil; and it may be seriously questioned whether those who really can't afford it have any right to be driving. It may, of course, be argued that an established habit of care- ful arrful driving is the best insurance; and there is a measure of truth in this. 13ut it overlooks one salient factor in the case — the Other Fellow. No matter how careful your own driving, his doings are beyond predicting, and can easily ruin your most calculated tactics -- and your- self with them, financially, physically, and socially. And suppose he isn't insured, either?

FIT FOR A QUEEN The first great success of Josia Wedgwood, founder of the famous English pottery and china firm of that name, was the perfection of a cream- coloured earthenware which was of much superior quality to anything made in England up to then. As the result of his receiving the patronage of Queen Charlotte in 1765, Wedgwood's new earthenware became known as Queen's Ware, a trade name still ill use.
