In our brain our minds serve as our memory,. The mind as given in part in the Oxford Dictionary is "The thinking and will- ing and perceuing faculties as dis- tinguished from the body." In other weirds'we are the result of our minds. We can to a large extent make,onr xhinds.or they can Intake us. The more' we look at this the more we realize the truth of it; There • are many ;Tien and worsen today who are living totally different lives 'from what they would be doing if their minds had been properly trained. What a wonderful thing the Mem- ory is! How terrible it would be for us if in looking back over the past we could recall only the tragic and worrying occurrences.: Unfortunately there are: many times when we could wish our 'minds were a huge black- board andwe could just take the brush and erase the things we do not want to remember; things which we would'be ashamed to let anyone else know about; and things which have hampered our future life. We are in- deed thankful to God that He has giv- en us the opportunity of corning to Him and confessing our sins. He has, if we have asked Him to, blotted out the stains fromourlives. He has, so to speak, been the teacher who has taken the black board brush and has simply rubbed out our misdeeds, and has left us free to go on, feeling that we have been forgiven. There are many things to which our inemol7 may be compared. One of them is a huge inexhaustable re- ceptacle into which everything we have seen or heard has been placed. There are many things which have fallen in so deep, that we cannot find them but at other times when any subject is brought up we just simply reach down into this bin and bring out' the information we desire. It may be something in connection with the news of the day; some piece of prose or poetry we have memorized in former years; some passage of scripture on which we wish to pillow our weary heads, or something in connection with a subject which we are studying. -At any rate it is pig - ion holed there some place and work- ing of our minds b rings it back. It remains with each one of us just what we have stored away. For in- stance look back over today and make two columns, one for the things which we would like -td remember in future years, the other for things which we could wish had never hap- pened. ,tn the majority of cases the Ringer one is the one containing the things which we do not wish to re- call, We should each one of us, stake it a• point to memorize a passage of Scripture each day and also a portion from one of the standard authors, Those are things which we would al- ways be glad to remember. It is amusing to talk o th with elderly people. A. twinkle comes to their eyes as they- recall such it - stances as; "Sixty years ago, the time of the old box stove, in school another girl and I took two of the big blocks of wood, dressed them up in some clothes of the scholars, and dur- ing the noon hour placed them one on each side of the teachers desk. When the teacher came back we Wer order- ed to take them and go to the princi- pals room. • Needless to say we had to undoes the logs and take them back to the pile to which they belonged." "Do you remember the time when we were in braining on Sunday night's we had to put our laundry in bags outside our doors. One Sunday night one ofthe girl's "stumped" -me to reach outside my door instead of my laundry bag. I must say I was in fear of the consequences but tie- ing the age when I would not take a "sump" I did so. In the distance I hoard the supervisor coming mak- ing the rounds, By this time I was shaltitrg pretty badly but it was too late for me to clo anything bat crouch there The steps came closer and closer, at last passed, and `receded down the hall. Only those who have lived in boarding- schools and' large residences realize the 111/1 whish can be got out of that sort of thing. As little children it was customaryfor us to gather et the corner, A small clmrch was there surrounded with ()no of theose pipe fences, over which we turned su mnersaults. One night my mother was going over to call on a lady whose father preacheo in that church, I had reason to thiole he was the meanest man who ever lived for he told my mother I turned summersaults over his old fences. - To this day I cannot se what harm I was doing. Gan you? As these stories, are told a dreamy look comes into the eyes of the nar- rator. Those were the good old days when youth held away. Years have passed since then and a great ileal, both geed and bad'have happened. Always with the unpleasant things comes the happy memories, have when some thrill has helped us through the days, Looking back the joyous times have taken up a much larger place in our lives than the un- happy things. To many of us the sweetest mem- ories are those which recall 'the quiet times we have apont with our Saviour ver a past PAGE 7•, 4S'eat4H, M, 4 4.÷:.§14484.44.4:00044:0)+,0:44+t asT T1i� eH 1H�fl H• • • . f'4 $4 4= ,eII 1' 1 t, t3 il- . 43 r« 3 Direct From England t J �3R. 1-i4,14$4:0:444,14,8,:444-0 f :H �Ht sH t+lH k♦♦H HD VHf ♦ • er-+W H -08;:Rf4`7H M4H N ; STRAW PULP FOR CATTLE up to what they were beforethe war. NEWS FODDER New British Process Trebles Feeding Value One million tons of straw can be given the feeding value of 500,000 tons of cereals by a new pulping pro- cess which is the latest contribution of agricultural science to Britain's food -growing campaign. At a cost of only £30, a plant can be built by farm labour which, by soaking 400 lb, of straw in caustic soda,wili produce 1,400 lbs. of straw pulp each day, enough to provide a daily ration for fattening .beasts, or twice as many young animals. Al- ready installed on 250 farms in the United, Kingdom, the plant consists of two concrete tanksseparated by a ramp and occupying 12 ft. by 12 ft. of ground. Livestock can normally utilise onl from one-half to one-third of th nourishment in straw, chaff or cav ings, but pulping makes these mat erials palatable and doubles er treb les' their breeding value. Thus ea ton of straw yields 31/4 tons of straw pulp, and 100 Ib. of straw pulp, whet her from wheat, barley or oat straw has the feeding value of 9 Ib. sterol 11 Ib. maize, 121/4 lb. barley or rice meal, 15 Ib. oats, 15 lb. dried sugar - beet pulp, 120 1b. rnangolds or 130 lb. swedes. Balanced up with a suit- able protein food such as ground -nut cake, it is relished by fattening or growing cattle, dairy cows or lamb- ing ewes. The. pulling can easily be fitted into the farm routine, one ton of straw requiring only 10 man-hour's labour, 180 lb. of caustic soda and 6,000 gals. of water. y e ch Six men' sat in London for six months smoking pipes made from r, strange new woods. They were in •search of a successor to the traditional bruyerc,popularly known as briar. It grew in Algiers, and, after being conditioned in Fran- ce, was shipped to England to be made into pipes. When the fortune of war cutoff supplies, some new material had to be found so the six smokers of Lon- don smoked steadily ahead, seeking the wood which seemed to their ex- pert tongues to be worthy to take the place of briar. After trying out woods from many quarters of the globe they have found in England one with all the qualities of briar yet completely different in appearance. It is non -porous. It resists ,teat. It is tough and tasteless. A. new method of curing the wood, known as the cherry •eure, has been worked out in practical manufactur- ing detail and already this "cherry cure" pipe is being exported to many parts of the world, and in particular to Canada, South Africa and the Un- ited States: in fact the limit of sup- ply is set only by the allocation of essential materials such as vulcanite which is irnportecl and is also in big demand for war work. One highly -placed executive, who had •already bespoken eleven suits for himself, gave a, oecond salesman an order for five costume lengths for his wife rather than send him .-empty away. Another distinguished roanor- dered fourteen suits; a woman mem- ber of an old New York family, ten costume lengths; and a well-known politician wrote out, a cheque for 1,000 dollars, remarking that, if his order did not run to that sum, the balance could go towards,' a Spitfire. Expensive as these suits are, and one may cost as much as £30, there is more than that in it for Britain's war chest. As the designs are exclu- sive, xclusive, other American men will soon ask for them too and •eventually they will go into suits turned out by mass - production with a resulting demand upon the mills of Yorkshire and Scot- land. SIX MEN SMOKED FOR SIX MONTHS And Found a New Pipe Wood in England V OLD-TIME SAILING SHIPS Give Britain Wartime Cattle Fodder Seeds accidentally taken to Eng- land last century in the holds of Am- erican .sailing ships have given Brit- ain's farmers a valuable war -time cattle !odder. It is rice grass, or Spattina town- sendii, a plant flourishing on coastal mud -flats Or river estuariesvvrhere it prevents the washing away of banks by the action of tides and currents. Much rice grass has, spread naturally, but in recent years extensive planta - ions have been made for coastal pro- tection. The modern English variety, dis- covered at Hythe, in Southampton water, in 1870, is a cross between the native species and, that brought from. America, and is so vigorous that whenever it comes into competition with either of its parents it elimin- ates them completely. Agricttltural experts who have car- ried out cattle feeding trials' with rice grass have found that under good conditions it makes splendid hay. It is also grazed• readily by all classes of livestock. In New South Wales rice grass has been planted as fodder in the ex- tensive saltlands of the Riverina dis- trict, where it absorbs the overflow from artesian wells. Experiments with it are also being carried out in South Africa, India and the Sudan. V AMBASSADORS FROM SAVILE ROW Sell Suits to U.S.A. A't 630 A Time Eminent citizens of the United States, including industrialists, state - men, Society folk, and financiers have been showing their sympathy with Britain by ordering more suits than ever from a band of travelling tailors, who have just returned to Savile Row encl. its neighbourhood. Among these 'ambassadors' for men's wear were representatives not only of the tailors bet of the haber- dashers arid the bootmakers as well. For sixty years they have been visit- ing ,America every spring and -au- :uinn (they are going back again this year) and the orders booked are well as we knelt in prayer and meditated on His ward. How many Christians today, are ,passing on to others, par- ticularly to members of their' own family, for whose Well being we should be chiefly coneetnedathe mem- ory picture of oui "holy of holies" where they knew they were being brought personally to Jesus Christ who is the only true companion at all stages of our lives. Live Each Day Wouldst then fashion for thyself. a seemly life? Then do not fret over what is past and gone; And spite of all thou Mayst have left behind Live each day as. if • Thy life were just begun.

Canadian Pacific Builds First Canadian Tank It was a proud day for the Can- adian Pacific Railway's Angus Strops at Montreal when D. C. Cole- man, vice-president, announced to a gathering of Government offi- cials, company officers, workers and newspaper men that he had great pleasure in deiiveting the first Canadian built tank to the Canadian Army. "The machine," he .said, "is the child of sweat and tears. It will be followed by hun- dreds and thousands of others to. help the Empire to its victory." The tank was gratefully aocept- ed by the Hon. C. D. Howe, Min: aster of Munitions and Supply, who praised Mr. Colemau, li- B. Bowen,, chief of motive power and rolling stock, and other Canadian Pacific men for the effort they had put into building this splen- did war machine, He, in turn, gave the tank'and .ail others to come .off the Angus assembly line to the Ron. J. L. Ralston, Min - dater of National Defence, who thanked .the, Canadian Pacific workers for the fine job they bad acoompldnlred, "You men have put your whole heart into this job,"' he aid. He also mentioned that: 300 of the thousands of tanks be- ing made at the Angus Shops were being produced for the Brit - lob Purchasing Commission. The pictures above show Mr. Coleman officially delivering the first tank to the Department of Munitions and Supply and, unset, Corp, Colin Stirton, of the Royal Tank Regitnerrrt, a veteran. of Dunkirk, complimenting an An- gus worker . on the construction of the tank,
