DESTROYER DESTROYED
Britain chalks up another victory in the Mediterranean in the
picturesque sinking of the Italian destroyer Artiglier. Torpedo from
the British cruiser York hits the Italian vessel just short of mind-
.: ships. Moments later, great geyser of smoke envelops ship, and
shoots skyward, indicating explosion of powder magazine.

TREE -PLANTING MACHINE
After three years a machine
that will plant about 8,000 trees
or shrubs a day has been devel-
oped for use on the shelter belts
of the Prairie States Forestry
Project.
The planting machine is mount-
ed on an implement called a
"unicarrier", to which are com-
monly attached plows, disks, till-
age tools and similar farm equip -
Meet.
The machine planter can be
moved from farm to farm on its
own wheels. An ordinary tractor
delivering from 15 to 20 drawbar
horsepower handles it without dif-
ficulty. A planting crew consists
of two men on the machine and a
tractor driver. The two planters
riding the machine alternate in
placing trees in the trench and
holding them in position until the
double wheels directly behind the
blades pack the soil around the
tree roots. A clicker signals when
a tree is to be placed.
The machine resembles a vege-
table -plant setter, but differs from
it in that no water is used to
sluice the trees into place,
A crew of three and a helper
can plant an average of about a
mile of ten -row shelter -belt trees
in an eight-hour day—about 8,-
000 trees and shrubs of several
different species. A twelve -man
crew using hand tools can plant
only 6,000 trees and shrubs per
day in soil prepared by the trench-
digging unicarrier alone.

HOG•'CHOLERA
Over 100,000 pigs have been
successfully immunized with a
new hog -cholera vaccine develop-
ed by Professor William T. Boyn-
ton of the University of Califor-
nia, after nearly a quarter of a
century of research. The stand-
ard serum -virus treatment was
sometimes followed by fatal en-
teritis, pneumonia and infection
by vermin, The new vaccine is
free froiu these drawbacks. More-
over, there is no danger of spread-
ing the disease because the vac,
eine • is made not fromthe blood
of once -infected animals but from
glandular tissue ground up with
,eucalyptol. A single inoculation
is enough.
Churchill. Discloses
Good R.A.F. News
Prime Minister Churchill's dis-
closure recently was the first of-
ficial statement that Ilse Royal
Air Force now has attained equal-
ity "in size and . number" with
the German air force,
The Press Association air cor-
respondent said the Print Min- '
ister "apparently was speaking
not only of actual strength in
frontline aircraft, . but also of
capacity to maintain equality in
production of aircraft,"
With the Commonweeltll Air
Training Plan in full awing, the
'Borreapondent said it was con-
sidered Britain "is able to keep
puce is the supply of pilots wills
the ever-increasing producton of
,machines."
"Tail -End - Charlies"
Here's a word for young Can-
adians who, to borrow a phrase
from Air Minister Power, have
clear grit, nerves of steel and a
clear eye: 'Your chance in the air
is coming, the chance to be a
"Tail -End Charlie."
He told the Commons" recently
he believed certain Canadian -
made aircraft could be modified
and substituted for types difficult
to obtain from Britain so Can-
ada could train a type of pupil
"to which we are not at all coin-
mitted" under the British Com-
monwealth Air Training Plan.
"I refer to pupils such as the
straight air gunners—Tail-End
Charlies, they call them," said
Maj. Power. "They sit at the tail
end of the bombing machines
with all heaven above and all
hell beldw. They require clear
grit; they must have nerves of
steel and a clear eye."
Says Battle Is Won
In ` Mediterranean
Gengm Sikoraki, Poland's pre-
mier and commander-in-chief,
went to Malta recently to decor-
ate the crew of a Polish naval
unit and said: "Britain has won
the battle of the Mediterranean."
"I have seen for myself Bri-
tain's domination of these waters
is complete while her superiority
in the air is beginning to be-
come obvious," he said, adding
that "Malta today is an impreg-
nable fortress."

How Can I?
BY ANNE ASHLEY
Q. How can I clean furs? •
A, Clean the furs by: first
brushing the wrong way; then
sift over the fur some hot corn-
meal or bran. Rub this into the
fur and allow to stand before
brushing it out. Take the fur
outdoors and brush (with the
nap) with a stiff whiskbroom,
after which saturate a clean cloth
with gasoline and rubthe fur
well, using a whiskbroom to re-
store the nap; then bang in the
sun to dry. Rub with the nap
when cleaning,- and never use

He was going home and It was
Clark. His road from the station,
was a lonely one and he was hur-
rying along as fast as he .could
when he realized suddenly that a
man boltind was following hila pus'•
posely, The faster he went the
faster the man followed until they
came to a field,
"Now," be said to himself," "I'll.
find out if he's after me," and .he
entered the field. The Juan fol-
lowed hint Fie circled arounik and
his pursuer dodged after him, He
Crawled under a hedge. Still the
man Was after him, At last he
turned and faced the fellow. "What
do you want? What are you fol-
lowing ma for?" •
"Well sir, it's like this. I'm go.
Ing to M. Brown's house and the
station agent told me to follow you
because Mr. Brown lived next door.
Tell me something, Do you always
go home like this?"
Three tramps had boiled a
chicken and were arguing how
to divide R. One suggested
they should toss a coin.
"Head," called Sam. "Tall,!
called Tom. "I'll take what's
left" sald Pat.
While waiting for the "All
Clear;' the men at the Government
Munition Training Centre were
down in the 'shelter discussing
lodgings.
"I've got digs fit for a blinking
king," said one In enthusiastic
tones.
'Weil, my bed reminds me of
the Prince of Wales' motto," cyni-
cally retorted another.
"How's that?"
"Because it's ,got three feathers!"
"So your son is In college?"
How is he making it?"
"He isn't making It. I'm
making It and he's spending
it."
The restaurant advertised rapid
service, but did not give it. A,
patron gave an order, waited pa-
tiently, and fell asleep. He awoke
to- hear the waitress's voice,
"Did you order this sundae?"
she asked.
"Good Heavens!" exclaimed the
customer in dismay. "I came in
lrere last Monday!"
"Of course know marriage
is a grave step."
"Step? My dear lad, it's a
flight of steps and every one
of them greased!"
Each One Of Them
Attacked Germany
Hitler's charge that "the Unit-
ed States has attacked Germany"
recalls some other famous accus-
ations from the same source. As -
cording to the Hitler version of
things—
"Austria attacked Germany":
Its last Chancellor, Schuschnigg,
was preparing to hold a plebi-
scite among his own people, and
that was a threat to the German
Reich.
"Czecho-Slovakia attacked Ger-
many": It had some territory
that Germany wanted, and so it
was guilty of aggression.
• "Poland attacked Germany": It
would not dismember itself, so
Hitler was forced to dismember
It.
"Denmark, Holland and Bel-
gium all attacked Germany":
They were guilty of lying in its
line of march.
In our, own case, according to
the Hitler version, the attack was
begun when the unarmed steam-
ship Robin Moor practically threw
itself upon a Nazi torpedo.
Germany never attacks. It is
Hitler's theory that the bigger
the lie the better its reception.

"Gigantic Effort"
Needed For Victory
Gen. Chances de Gaulle, Free
French leader, said recently t@
"gigantic effort" was nocessal'y
to produce "astronomical" quan-
tities of - tallies and airplanes for
men who "sonic day will have to
go into action in Europe, Asia
and Africa,"
Ho spoke at a Foregn Press
Association luncheon.
Perhaps, he said, it will be the
action of 100,000 tanks, combin-
ed with that of 150,000 planes
and supplied by 00,000,000 tans
of shipping, "which will cause
the enemy's mechanized system
to crumble and with it the whole
edifice of German tyranny,"
He said it seemed to be in
keeping with the logie: of events
that Germany should soon seek
"the respite she needs" but <'as-
serted it "is quite certain in ad-
vance" that any German solicita-
tions never would be accepted.

Etiquette
BY ROBERTA LEE
1. Is it all right to apply pow-
der and lip stick in a street ear
or bus?
2. In what way can a business
man dispose of a tiresome caller?
3. If a husband and wife are
traveling by car, is it all right for
• the wife to go into the hotel to
make room arrangements while
the husband waits in the car?
4. Is it proper to honk the
horn when calling for a guest
whorl you are taking for an auto-
mobile drive?
5. Is It proper for a bride who
is being married in a traveling
costume to have bridesmaids?
6. If a woman is a house guest
and her hostess has no servants,
should she helpwith the house-
work? .
Answers
1. Avoid doing this, especially
the lip stick. If absolutely neces-
sary to remove- shine from the
nose, do so as inconspicuously as
possible. 2. If rising is not ef-
fective, the business man is justi-
fied in frankly telling the caller
that he is very busy. 3. No; the
man should take care of all the
necessary arrangements. 4. This
is an extremely discourteous act.
The correct thing is to ring the
doorbell. 5. She usually has only
a maid or matron of honor. 6.
Yes, or at least, offer to help her
hostess.

How The Ra Aa F.
Found Its Motto
Story of The Most Famous
Motto of To -day's World
Told By Winnipeg Free Press
How did the Air Force get its
motto? One would expect, front
the importance of the service to-
day, the courts of heraldry made
the fateful choice and Privy C01111-'
ratified it.
In the London Times last
month there appeared a letter
from a clergyman; Rev. John 1'.
Watson, asking how the motto
carte to be chosen. A correspon-
dence has followed which is as-
tonishing in this—that the motto
was chosen in a most haphazard
way. Frederick H. Sykes writes
that when he was raising the mili-
tary wing of the flying corps in
1912, one of the difficulties was
that all his officers and men were
in different uniforms or in civ -
Han dress. At his suggestion a
distinctive uniform was author-
ized.
A badge was now needed and
Sykes add Brigadier General
David Henderson, of the War Of -
flee, together sketched one upon
a War Office blotting pad. The
badge so sketched is the badge
the Air Force wears today.
A motto was needed to com-
plete the badge, and Sykes asked
his officers to make suggestions.
A young officer by name of J. N.
Fletcher proposed "Per Ardua ad
Astra." Fletcher had got the idea
from a friend named J. S. Yule,
an officer in the Royal Engineers,
and now in the War Office. This
suggestion seemed good and was
referred to the War Office. It
was criticized by one of the
higher-ups as being "bad -Latin,"
but was approved.
Other letters indicate that sev-
eral schoolmasters were consulted
and, in particular, F. H. Rawlins,

For Shell Shocked
Vivid Picture Presented of
What War Is Like in Eng-
land -
The• "crash -conditioning" of Bri-
tain's shell-shocked Blitzkrieg vic-
tims by subjecting them to ad-
ditional noise was described, to
members of the Southern Medical
Association, in St. Louis, Mo.
The idea of blasting the ears ot
Persons Who are already psycho-
pathic and confined to hospitals
was said to have been effective,
but it did not work on a group
of persons who heard for the first
time the whine of dive bombers.
the shriek and blast of falling
bombs.
The sound picture of what war ire
England is like made women faint
and men shudder or get up and de-
part.
The sounds were transcribed on
records by the British Broadcast-
ing Corporation using microphones
placed in open fields, homes and
bombshelters near Dover and Lon-
don during the Battle of Britain
last August.
These records have been used frit
the newest experiment of the war
on men, women and children, who
were frightened even by a door
squeak, in a process described "de-
conditioning" persons to bomb
raid noises.
At first they would run scream-
ing from the rooms, holding their
ears and tearing at anything in
their way. But within two weeks
of treatment, in which the bom-
bardments were repeated with con-
stant
onstant warnings that "these are the
ones which won't hurt you," the
survivors of actual air raids took
It as calmly as the passengers
roaring along on a New York sub-
way.
Frequently small children have
been so de -conditioned by the reo-
ords that they keep on playing
with their toys under actual bom-
bardment conditions, according to
officials of the British Library o[
Information who presented the rec-
ords here.
