Well, last week he appeared on the radio programme, "Star's of Tomorrow" over C II L Coast -to -Coast. We think he did a grand job and know that, if you heard dim, you enjoyed him. Who's On Second? While the bouquets are being tossed around, we can :mention Neil MacCarl of Whitby who is doing a bi gjob of shports-reporting for the local pap- er there. Neil is taking the journal- ists course at Western University. This is the course that Varsity threw down the drain -pipe. West- ern, being new and modern and eager to help those who want to be something, took the cottre which is partly sponsored by the Canadian Weekly Newspaper Association. Back to MacCarl. Neil writes a crisp and snappy column and has been seen darting around with a pad and pencil at sports events at Whitby for a number of years. Who knows? Idere we may have another Andy Lytle. Friggin' in the Riggin' Sailing which is a very pleasant pasttime for anyone who likes water is still as popular as ever.

In fact he was stopped so suddenly while rid- ing a horse at Pear's Parte, Toronto, he was thrown off. The horse went into the act too—knocking a man, a woman and a child flat. Pogue, as we hear it, was not hart, self while riding the blades in - but feels much more sure of hint - stead of a horse. Pogue is slated to appear with the Generals again next season. Democracy is Fun: The above is the title of a piece that appeared in the June issue of the Rotarian, one of the finest magazines in the country. The story concerns a group of Iowa youths who saw and solved a problem that set a whole town talking. It scents that the young people of the public and high school of Dubuque, Iowa, have cleaned up on theatre vandalism in that typical American town of 50,000 population. One morning a group net in the "Home Town" Fetes Princess Elizabeth Princess Elizabeth has received the freedom of the ancient Borough of Windsor, from which her grand- father, King George V, took his name in 1017. Thousands of persons recently watched the ceremony held in the shadow of historic Windsor Castle, one of the residences of the Royal Family, The Princess said she regarded Windsor as a "home in a way no other place can be," and it was natural that she would wish to re- spond to the friendship of the peo- ple who had watched her grow up by accepting their highest honor. school auditorium. They discussed the problem and then elected an investigating committee Whicle in They learned that torn seat cover- ings, plywood peeled off the back turn nut the theatre managers, of the seats, lip -stick writing on the powder room walls and other injuries to the theatre premises were costing the managers about $00 a week.

Today Dubuque citizens are talking aplenty about the change the young people have irrought about among themselves. Every- one oiued in to help and now they have their own school council. (leading the whole idea was a kid named Daryl Koch, a 13 -year-old. The tccners there have proven that they can be ladies and genllmen. This isn't the end of the story, On .April 20th, the fatuous singer Kate Smith presented her junior citizenship award to the 'all out- standing youth in boys' work in the United States." The contest direct - a boy "who is not afraid to get ars had announced that they wanted his hands dirty." The chap who stepped up to the microphone in New York City that night and thanked Miss Smith for the honour was 13 -year-old Daryl Koch of a place called Dubuque, Iowa, The story of some hometown democ- racy emonracy azd got around.

At any rate it is the time of heat and haying, sudden storms and summer visitors ---but not itreccssarily related—and times when everything seems to hapen at once. Saturday' for instance: The men were working like fury trying to clear a big field of hay before threat- ening storms could stop them or the close of the day bring a normal end to field and barn activities. And be- tween them they did it. Partner took over the chores while the boys stayed out in the field. One load they brought in just about had me quak- ing. I was sure the wagon would never go into the barn or that John would be decapitated in the process. The load swayed crazily on the rough ground and as it approached the barn I stood watching. John crouched lower and lower, the horses lugged their way into the barn, the beam over the doorway caught the top of the load until it pushed a few forkfuls of hay back and back and finally over the end of the rack. Ex- cept for that the load did go into the barn. having reassured myself on that point I moved "the Greening" out of the sun into the garage. May- be my mind was on the load, or maybe it was the heat, anyway when I wanted to go to town a couple of hours later I found the ignition still on and the battery worse than use- less, I thought to myself—"Well, that's something for Bob to deal with—and will he be mad l" After supper I told him the worst—and he wasn't mad at all. In fact he took the opportunity to do a little experiment- ing. Instead of towing the car or getting a store battery, he jacked one wheel up and then turned the wheel just as he docs the fly -wheel on the tractor—and, presto, away went the motor as slick as you please, * * * Then came Sunday. Both the boys expected to be away most of the day and as Partner and I were not look- ing for any visitors we intended to make the most of a quiet day and rest up a bit. Incidentally there wasn't too much to eat in the house because in humid weather I try to keep perishable food supplies down to a minimum rather than have them spoil. Of course you have guessed what happened] Yes, we had visitors all right—visitors from a distance— for dinner, afternoon tea and supper, But don't think they starved. On a farm there Is always something one can rustle up a meal with in a hurry, but until one has thought it out one does have a few had moments I And believe me, short rations notwith- standing, we were pleased to see our visitors. * * * Then came Monday: Carpenters were here first thing in the morning to repair the hayfork track. Partner left the boys to help with the job while he went out to mow. While all the men were thus occupied a truck came along to pick up a veal calf we wanted to have butchered for the locker; then along came another truck for two veal calves that were going to market and of course each time I had to hunt a man to handle the calves. Sometime during the morning John came to the house. Looking for bolts in a box at the barn he bad disturbed a bee's nest. By the look of John's arm one bee had shown active resentment, the others were buzzing around angrily just near the driveway in the barn where the horses take their load. As every- one knows bees and horses is a barn don't make good companions. I fixed up Johnny and then, after I had given the bees time to quieten down a bit, I fixed them too. Thank heaven for DDT—it can sure save a lot of work and misery on a job like that. * * * The news says—"Hot again to- morrow"—oh-oh—and tomorrow any sister-in-law is coming to atayl Long Peace Field Marshal Viscount Mont- gomery, Chief of the British, im- perial General Staff, told a large crowd welcoming him to Darwin, Australia, that he was really fed up with war," "The world now is settling down properly," he said. He believed "there will be no more storms for a very long time." GIRLS! WOMEN! TRY THIS IF YOU'RE NERVOU en 'CERTAIN DAYS'' et The Month!
