Not only are they now getting ready for New Year's radio celebrationsbut they al- so are completing.' an'angements for an entirely new .schedule for 1938. It. is, however, with great enthusiasm that these arrangements are being made, largely because of the fulfil- ment of two iMpottant CBC under- takings:' the inauguration to the net- work of tWa 50,000 watt transmitting stations at Hornby and Vercheres which now are providing listeners in Ontario and Quebec with broadcast coverage and reception new to Cana- dian radio, The two stations, CBL and CRF, will be followed-in_tiane by other high-powered plants to be con- structed at strategic points through- out Canada, notably the Prairies and the' Maritimes. Withthe knowledge that this am- bitious undertaking m-bitious'undertaking to provide Canada with a network of this type already has been partly realized, programme officials are endeavoring to keep up with the, rapid strides being made by the engineering department. A glance at the new schedule, which becomes effective January 2, indicates that the CBC does not intend to stay behind in the field of broadcast entertain- ment. ' One, of the most important features of the 1938 schedule is that several of the most ambitious United States programmes will be made available to Canadian listeners. These include Sundays, 7.00 to 7.30 Jack Benny; 8.00 to 9.00 Chase and Sanborn, fea- turing Edgar Burgen and Charlie Mc- Carthy; Mondays, The Lux Radio Theatre, dramatizations; Wednesdays, at 8.00 o'clock, One Man's Family; Thursdays, Kraft Music Hall, featur- ing Bing Crosby. Others are being arranged. CBC's own programmes, several of which will be heard in. the United States as international exchange fea- tures, have been planned with a view to providing Canada with broadcasts that, besides reflecting the Canadian scene and the personality typical of this country, will be both entertain- ing and educational. A special at- tempt has been made to assure that its programrnes will satisfy the varied and conflicting tastes of listeners. Important among CBC's awn pro- grammes will be: Sundays, 5.00 to 6.00 "Vesper Hour", from Vancouver; 7.30 to 8.00 a new programme to be known as "Canadian Mosaic", pro- duced from Toronto by J. Murray Gib- bon, authority on folklore and folk songs and featuring an orchestra with soloists; 10.00 to 10.30 discussions by the Shaftesbury Club of Toronto on housing problems; Mondays, 8.30 to 9.00 the popular "Streamline" feature from Toronto and from 11.30 to 12.00 "Night Shift", actuality series, which is scheduled to be presented from Vancouver. Tuesday's highlights are 9.00 to 10.00 a new feature , called "CBC Concert Series". This will be presented from Montreal and will fea- tureJean-Marie Beaudet conducting a sixty -piece symphony orchestra. It is felt that this will be the biggest show ever attempted by the CBC. The finest soloists available have been en- gaged. The same night, 11.15 to 11.30, brings "The Cariboo Miner", talks by George MacKerracher on the Yukon, and his adventures in the mining fields. This will be presented from Vancouver. On Wednesdays, 10.30 to 11.00, The CBC Singers, a Toronto group that for some time has been carefully groomed for broad- casting, will be featured. This group bids fair to be one of the finest or- ganizations of its kind on the North American continent. On Thursdays, the CBC will present, 9.00 to 10.00, the "Drama Hour", during which plays by outstanding British and Am- erican authors will : be dramatized. Producers will be Laurence Gilliam of tell BBC who is now on six months' loan to • Canada, and Rupert Lucas, brilliant .Cantjilian producer. T h e "Drama Hour will be presented from different points o f production throughout the country. On Fridays 8.80 to 8.45 will be. pre- sented a series of international news commentaries featuring on alternate weeks Steven Cartwright, editor of "Current History", New York, and various features from London. This series, starts January 2 when Gerald Barry, 'editor of the London "News Chronicle" and formerly editor of the "Weekend, Review" ' will be heard. From 11.80 to 12.00 there will be a new feature called "The Minstrels' Gallery", featuring Arthur Phelps who will read poetryset to music. These, of course, are only a few of the highlights for 1938. Other pro- grammes, seine of which by papular demand' have been presented in the past or are being presented at pre- dent, will be featured. The CBC will continue to broadcastprogrammes grainmes from England and other European countries • as well as send some of its own abroad. Two important changes noted, moreover, are that the North- ern Messenger service, which has been presented Saturdays will be broad- cast Fridays 12.00 midnight; to 1.00 a.m. and that, effective January 2, the Corporation's Canadian ' Press newscasts will be broadcast 11.00 to 11.15. • On New Year's Eve. New Year's Eve will be celebrated over the national network of the CBC by several special broadcasts. Not- able among these will be 9.00 p.m. "Hail and Farewell", a broadcast dealing with significant happenings of ..the past twelve months in the Bri- tish Empire, Europe, United States Canada and the Far East. It will be produced by Laurence Gilliam from. the Toronto studios. At 10.55 Hali- fax, the first point in the North Am- erican continent to greet the New Year, will present "1938 Comes. to Canada", As the time speeds across Canada and the old year beats' a has- ty retreat, Montreal will present at 11.05 "Dancing Through 1937", a re- view of the year's popular. music. This will be produced by H. Rooney. Pelletier and will feature an orches- tra under the direction of Lucia Agos- tini with guest soloists. At 11.55 "Canada's Capital Greets 1938" and at 12.45 the far west will bid goodbye to 1937 with "A Happy New Year". "YOUR HOME STATION" AKN$ 1200 'Kcs.-Wingham-249.9 Metres WES. McKNIGHT'S INTERVIEWS COMING ON •CKNX JAN. 1 Next to Foster Hewitt's famed "He Shoots . . . He Scores!", the top- ranking radio feature on Saturday nights is Wes McKnight's N. H. L. Interview. Thousands of Canadians who wouldn't miss the Maple Leaf Gardens broadcasts feel much the same way about McKnight's inter- views earlier in the evening. Saturday night at 7.00 o'clock, Me - Knight can always be counted upon to bring some noted hockey celebrity to the microphone. It is estimated that a good fifty per cent of the National Hockey League players and coaches have already been lured to his Sat- urday night microphone for an inter- view. Dos to increasing demand front this district for better 'reception of these broadcasts, arrangements have been made for "The Home Station", CKNX at Wingham, to hook up with a direct wire to Toronto for these broadcasts. Wes. McKnight's Interviews will go on as usual at his Toronto studios, but a direct wire will now connect his Microphone with the CKNX transmit- ter at Wingham. CKNX will carry the first broadcast on Saturday, Jan. 1. and each Satur- day night for the balance of the hoc- key season.

Pithy Ancedotes Of The Famous Writing to Austin Dobson just af- ter, he had finished his Life of the P'oet Gray (of Elegy fame), Sir Ed- mund Gosse said -the letter is quoted in Evan Charteris' Life of Gosse: "I am in a state of agitation; I have just' written' the death of Gray, with inexpressible excitement: I have been crying so that my tears blinded the page -how ridiculous -tears for a little man who died more than a hundred years ago -how ridiculous!" You often hear soieeone say -per- haps somewhat enviously- that so- and-so was "born, with a silver spoon in his mouth." That saying origin- ated in olden times: when a hostess; giving a sumptuous dinner, did not feel obligated to supply her guests with the' cutlery necessary to its neat, and cleanly, despatch. Forks had not been invented rthen but spoons had, and each guest brought -his own spoon. And the kind of spoon he brought was largely instrumental in deciding his place at the table, says Estelle H. Ries (in "Mother Wit"). .A. silver spoon was sure to land him a seat at the aristocratic end. Most spoons were of bone, shell, _and other materials. So you can see that the expression "born with a silver spoon in his mouth" really meant something. Tiie silver spoon was handed down from father to son and fortunate the child born of a father who possessed a silver spoon. The Expression "Hobson's choice" -meaning no other alternative -dates back over three hundred years and originated from 'the stables of one Tobias Hobson, of Cambridge, Eng- land. Hobson was the first man in England to hire out hackney horses, according to Addison: He made a rule that though a prospective custo- mer might be shown a whole stable full of horses, the customer always had to take the animal which stood nearest the door. Whence "Hobson's choice." The phrase "Burning the candle at both ends" goes back -to-the days when candles were long, flexible tap- ers, held in a kind of metal rushlight holder. By Bending the taper and lighting both ends you got double the illumination, but you exhausted your taper in half the normal time. And so with some human beings who "burn the candle at both ends" it is a "short life and . a merry one" -or so they say. The origin of "grog" dates back to 1740 when the British Admiral Ver- non, ordered that the sailor's rum - at the time usually called arrack - should be watered. Displeased, the sailors named the insulting beverage "grog" because the Admiral was al- ready known as "Old Grog" from his habit of wearing a grogram (that is, a coarse fabric) garment, either cloak, or foul -weather coat, or breeches. By the way, Mount Vernon, the home of George Washington, was named after Admiral Vernon. There is a story of the book -world, which may be recalled as suggesting the things necessary in a first novel and a "first novelist." A well-known publisher, relates James Milne (in "A London Book Window"), was called upon by the young son of an intimate friend with the question: "I want to be a novelist; will you tell me what I should do?" "Young man," was the answer, "I cannot tell you how to succeed in the most difficult profession in the world. But I can give you one or two hints as to how to set about it. You should clearly decide in your own mind what you wish to say; then you should decide equally clearly how you wish to say it; and finally you should say it all as clearly and con- cisly as you can in not more than 100,000 'words; and if you can make the words fewer, so much the better." Then there is Mark Twain's advice to a young author. You recall he said: "Yes, Agassiz does recommend au- thors to eat fish, because the phos- phorous in it makes brain. But I cannot help you to a decision about the amount you need to eat -at least not with certainty. If the specimen composition you send is about your fair, usual average, I should judge that perhaps a couple of whales would be all you would want for the pres- ent. Not the largest kind, but simply good middle-sized whales." WALKERT,ON GOALIE GOES TO EUROPE WITH,. CANADIAN TEAM To be chosen asgoalie on the hoc- key team, which will represent Can- ada in the world championship tour- nament at Prague, Czechoslovakia has been the fortunate lot ,of Mel. Al- bright of Walkerton. Besides taking part in the world-wide tournament. the team, known as the Sudbury Wolves, will tour England and other European countries: The aggregation which is under the protective wing of Maxie Silverman, the Sudbury hoc- key mogul, sailed from Saint John, N.B., on Tuesday of last week for their overseas tour.

This team eliminated the Lucknow Juniors that year. - Luck - now Sentinel. clieSNAPSUOT CUIL LEARN YOUR LIGHTING. PAGE 3, Careful lighting, low and to one side, gives this "character portrait" its unusual firelight effect. HAVE you ever tried shooting away a whole roll of film on one subject, not changing its position in the least but merely altering the way the light strikes it? It may seem foolish and extrava- gant but it can be one of the most important photographic lessons you ever took. Try it on this theory: that the ob- jects in a picture have no real in- terest in themselves but that all the interest is in the way they are lighted -how the light strikes, how shadows are cast. Or, in the words of a great French photographer, that the subject is nothing, the lighting is everything. Take a photoflood lamp in a re- flector and arrange a number of small objects -say some fruit spill- ing from a bowl -on a white table top. Have enough general room light to give detail in the shadows. Now set up your camera firmly with the light right beside it, for your first picture. Take another with the light far to the left and high up. Take one with the light directly over the subject. Take one with it behind the subject, shading the bulb so that no direct light ahinea into the cam -- era, lens. Try as many positions as the length of the film roll allows. When. the pictures are developed and print- ed, the differences will astound you - Study them and you will learn what. can be donewith light when it is properly used. If you don't like still life, try a. series of portraits, using the same• person and the same pose but dif- ferent angles of lighting. From pic- ture to picture, facial expression. will vary astonishingly -dead .with fiat front light, sinister with the light low and directly in front, startled or even terrified with the light low and to one side, and 'so on. The same is true of landscapes. With each hour of the day -they change, the deep morning shadows dwindling into noon and growing again into the grandeur of evening. Light is the photographer's work- ing material, the plastic clay from which be models his pictures. Study it. Learn what lighting can do and apply your knowledge and you wilt produce pictures of which you wilt be proud. 163 John van Guilder ' LONDESBOIi.O (Too late for last week) Mr. Snelling with wife and daugh- ter, Mr. and Mrs. Blair of Goderich Township, visited with Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Lyon on Sunday. Mr. and .Mrs. Ralph Joshing of Wingham, visited at the home of Chas. Manning on Sunday. Public School concerts are many this week with splendid programs at each. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Lyon went to Leamington on Wednesday last and spent Christmas at the home of their son, Dr. Kirk Lyon. The Annual Christmas Tree Con- cert held in the Community Hall on December 21st, was a success from every standpoint. Owing to the rath- er bad condition of the roads perhaps, the attendance was not quite as large as it would have been. However, quite a good-looking crowd assembled. The concert was very fine, perhaps the very best ever presented by the Uni- ted Church Sunday School, which con- sisted of chorus, duets, drills, recita- tions, pantomimes and a short Christ- mas play. Each and every number was so good that it would be hard to judge which was the best. The com- mittee who had the work of training of each deserves great credit. The Christmas 'Free was laden with gifts for young and old. Old Santa had a busy time at the close of the program getting the presents distributed, The proceeds were nearly $50.00. NEWS OF HAPPENINGS IN THE COUNTY AND DISTRICT TO REPRESENT QUEENS Earl Christie, of Exeter, has been selected as one of the twelve dele- gates to represent 'Queen's University at the conference of Canadian uni- versity students at Winnipeg during the Christmas holidays. At the conference every conceivable phase cif national university life will be discussed: It is hoped to effect a closer relationship among Canadian institutions of learning and to bring about a keener appreciation of under- graduate problems. Mr. Christie, a member of Queen's Theologieal College, recently conduct- ed a Sunday evening service at Prin- cess Street United Church. On enter- ing Queen's Theological College in Oc- tober he was successful in securing the second entrance scholarship. '-Exeter Times -Advocate. 60TH.
