'nitre With a time when the week- ly baking included enough loaves of bread to east a hungry family— to say nothing of visitors—for the following seven days, Not many modern housewives follow this time -hovered custom, as bread -bak- ing on that scale was a tedious there, and one which involved many hours, But there's no reason why Quick Breads made more attractive by the addition of fruits or nuts, shouldn't help you—as they do so many wo- men—in that never-ending problem of "What to Give Them Next?" Most of the quick loaf breads will keep well for as long as a week, es- pecially those containing dried fruits. Cool the loaves on a wire rack, wrap in waxed paper, and be sure to store in a tightly covered tin.

NEW and USEFUL TOO CUTS GAS WASTE. According to the makers, the waste of gasoline in the 'average motor car can be eliminated automatically by the new airflow carburetor needle. The av- erage motorist drives a large pore. tion of his mileage at inefficient idling speeds—constantly starting and stopping, waiting for traffic signals, slowing down for other cars. What the needle will do is adjust the motorist's gasoline mix- ture every time he comes to a stop. In actual tests an average increased mileage of two miles per gallon was reported. NEW METAL CLEANER. Of the "wipe -on -wipe -off" type, this new metal cleaner is said to clean without any rubbing, Applied with damp cloth, fingers, or a brush this product requires only 40 sec- onds to dissolve tarnish, rust ar stains on brass, copper, chrome,. nickel and aluminum and removes nest stains from porcelain enamel and rust out of fabrics, according to makers' claims. JAMLESS FASTENER. A heir slide fastener that won't jam on underclothing, threads or other ob- structions. A twist of the tab re- leases whatever material has been caught in the teeth. ' WARM WALLS. A new hot-air hone heating method that gives the sensation of radiant heat. Special registers and grilles set into outer walls of room force waren air up- ward in a' fanlike pattern, creating a blanket of warm air next to the walls. Engineers say this method cuts installation costa by na much as fifty per ,cent.

Cte ,e Partner 'called me outside this morning. "Do you hear what I hear?" he asked. I listened ... a crow . and then more crowsl There they were, away off in the bush, talking to each other; asking each other—"Can this be spring?" And why not—the suit was bright and warm, there was hardly a trace of snow anywhere, and there was no wind, other than a gentle breeze. Yes, more than the crows were asking—"Can this be spring?" Personally, 1 am completely be- wildered; it seems far too early for spring—and yet, surely too late for winter. But that, I .know, applies only to this district. More than likely some of you people who read this column have winter all around -you. And you may be the better off in the long run, None of the fanners around here are too happy about the bare fields. • Olt my, what a lot of things we can find to worry about these days —if we are the worrying kind. And even if we are not there is at least a sense of uneasiness nagging at our subconscious. We would like to know the answer to so many things. What will be the outcome of the North Atlantic pact? It there an- other depression on the way? Will it be profitable to raise chickens this year—or shall we be left hold- ing the bag? Are prices really on a 'downward trend? And what is the overall outlook for farming? Yes, 'those and a dozen other question, are quite enough to keep us awake at night—if we let them. But what good would it do? Certainly we need to take an intelligent interest in world affairs. But worry defeats its own ends by making .us less able to deal with any problems which come our way, and which may well be the outcome of greater problems affecting our rountry tis ase, whole. w u a You know, .there are times when I go over this column' and say to myself—"My goodness, folks will think we don't know about any- thing beyond our hundred acres!" But let me assure you, we do have a few ideas over and above what concerns our cows, oily 'toga a, our 5515, But 1 feel that you labor as huh, and probably more, about anything that happens that is of national importance; lent you tine', know, uihless I tell you, of the crazy things our Honey does, or the time I have keeping Our three animals from half killing each other, 1f the telling atlases you for awhile, that', fine.

And then, still worrying, I suddenly cane to my senses—"Why, I didn't swallow that pin .: , I didn't swallow any- thing. I've been dreaming . , . here I am, still in bed—I couldn't have swallowed a pint" And sure enough, it was a dream—a dream so real- istic that I had quite a time to con- vince myself that such an accident hadn't really happened, But oh dear, - how glad I was to discover it wasn't true. Now there's a chance for dream fans—tell me, what did my dream foretell? Maybe I had been working too hard with nay crochet hook and sort of got, things mined up. You see 1 am about three Barts through with making a tablecloth, When it is finished it will consist of 1400 cro- cheted squares. Each square in it- self is about two inches square and takes about tl2 to •15 minutes to make, Partner and I amused our- selves the other day by figuring out what the value of the cloth would be when finished, on the basis of n eight-hour day at $5 a day—'which you will agree is hardly trade union pay. We figured it out at $225, not counting the cost of the thread, which I have lost track of. And yet, if I wanted to sell that cloth—which I don't—I suppose $100 would be considered an outrageous price to ask. Truly the work of one's hands is seldom appraised et its true value. But in this case I have the satisfac- tion of knowing that Daughter will progably treasure my tablecloth as an heirloom , , , when T get through with i11 EDUCATION FOR LABOR LEADERS The Canadian Congress of Labor wilt this year spend a quarter of a million dollars on "educating" some 6,000 union officials. The courses given are designc,I 1t. help union men talk with manage- ment about industrial problems. They include corporation finance, job evaluation, time study, methods of negotiation, labor law, public speaking, meeting procedure, pub- licity, election organizing, economic and politeai trends, government, etc. This educational progre,n is direr - led at those who are now, and who will be, the key men in uuluns wlttt membership of some 400,000 or about 20 per cent of Cai,eda's indus- trial working force says a w:her in. The Financial Post, A better informed group ..1 men running the Canadian labor move- ment should be to the advantage of everybody, Too often in the past our country has been plagued with the industrial strife because some people were unable to unoerstand economic realities; because suspi- cion, intolerance and enmity have bred and thrived on misinformaton and too little information But this sweeping CCL program is not just for "education." It is for educaiton of a special slanted kind. For the CCL is now tightly link- ed to the CCF. The two have joined forces to make Canada Socia- list and, as illustrated almost daily, the CCF has its own. version of history, economics and almost every- thing else. To the extent that this program is truly educational, it is a laudable and epochal developntent. But to the extent that it is a machine fog in- doctrination and propagandizing, a harness tying unionists to the wheels of a single political party, that this is regretable, and will hurt 110 one more than the unionists themselves, t=t The kind of education that° all need a lot mors of—management, labor end everybody else—is the real thing. which is an objective study of facts. Sum eductt.ion would contribute mightily to attaining the goal everybody wants: social and economicbetterment for all, greater security and oplinrtunity for ;,11. But by its allegiance to the Can- adian Socialist party, the CCL an- nounces that its objectives are not only improved conditions for its members and industrial peace. Its paramount aims are political power and destruction of the present eco- nomic system. Good Railways Need Proper Nourishment "Canadian railways have some through various tests of their basic efficiency aid their resiliency," said Alistair Fraser, Vice-presdent, .traf- fic, Cansdan National Railways, in replying to a toast to the railways, at the 41st annual dinner of the Canadian Railway Chub, held acre, recently. "Their experience has been ripened; their technique im- proved; their equipment modernized. They stand at the highest point with respect to men, material and me- thods, Their health is good," he said. "1'he railways caaiot maintain their good health," he continued, "if inadequately nourished, just as the finest athlete could 1101 carry on a hunger feet indefinitely.

R. Barclay Warren SSPECIAL TRAINING OF THE TWELVE Mark 6180-82; Luke 11t 1.4, 9-13. Golden Text:- For every one that asketh reeeiveth; and he that seek- eth flndeth; and to him that knock- sth it shall be opened.- Luke 11:10. No group of men ever received as good training for the work of the ministry as did the twelve. It is admitted that judged by present day seminary standards they had low "entrance credits." They came from ordinary walks of life as fishing and tax collecting. But they had the world's greatest teacher. IIe spake as never man spake. He, Jesus Christ, excelled as a counsellor. The twelve returned tri- umphantly from a tour in which they had preached repentance, cast out devils and healed many sick. On, their return they learned of the murderous action of the adulterous Herod in beheading John the Bap- tist. It was an appropriate time for Jesus to take the group away from the throngs which gave him no leisure, even for eating. What counsel and comfort the group must have received from the master as they moved across the lake. The holiday was short, for a crowd had gone about the lake and were wait- ing with their sick. The compas- sion of Jesus was such that he for- got his intended rest and ministered. But in this, too, he was training his disciples. Jesus, by example and precept. taught the twelve the meaning and value of prayer. He held commun- ion with the Father. His praying was not irksome but it was so at- tractive that they said on one occasion when He hall finished, "Lord, teach us to pray." The promises with respect to prayer are either true or false. They are not false for history tells of many who have proved them true. If they are true for some they arc true for all who will test them Every great religious awakening has been preceded and accompanied by much praying. Would to God that the prayer life of our nation would deepen. The tyranny that is. sweeping the old world might he averted. Our social ills would be healed if Canadians would humbly and earnestly seek God in prayer. Let, us pray.
