It will have pep, zipp, originality and .a style which, as radio' critics, we would call "sens'ationa'l." That is pretty strong language for 'us who are not- oriously modest in our commendation of 'broadcasts but 'we'll be w'illinig to eat last year's 'Easter bonnet if this show doesn't live up to the praise we are 'showering upon it. "Canadian Fantasy" wi11 depict in music and dramatic and song narrative ,for list- eners here, abroad .and in United States ,(where it also will be heard), the 'life of 'the Dominion, her people, her streams, lakes and forests, Fea- ture of the half-hour production will be a special sequence, '"Canadian Scene," written by Kannawin, and the original song narrative, "Radio," also by •Kannawin, for which Faith has written the scare. Opening of Thousand Islands Bridge 'O'penin'g of the Thousand Island's Bridge spanning the St. Lawrence 'River near Btroekville, Ontario, 'will be described during a . special from - the -scenes 'broadcast to be presented over .the CBC national network Aug- ust 18, 2;4151 to 4 p.m. EDST. Canadian and American parties who will meet at the exact boundary, on Wellesley Island, include President Roosevelt, Lord Tweedsmuir, 'Governor-General +*-of Canada, Lady Tweedsmuir, Prime Minister Mackenzie iKing and Gov- ernor 'Herbert H. Lehman, of New 'York. The Governor-General and Lady Tweedsmuir will travel from Quebec in a special railway car, .ar- riving, at ,Brockville in time to board the private yacht, "Moby Dick," owned by George 'T. Fulford, former M. P. P. and wealthy Brockville man- ufacturer, .which will 'carry them down the St. Lawrence to the scene of the ceremonies. :Prime Minister King will be aboard with the vice- regal party, sailing under the Canad- ian channel..crossing of the new five - span 'structu're, Plans call for the ar- rival of President 'Roosevit at 'W'enl- esley Island at ,3 p.m. near the 90 foot filli,rip.n crossing the U.

'With •a 211 gun •salute as the signal, the King's representa- tive in Canada and -other Canadian officials 'will 'proceed to the centre of the bridge under military escort. CBC Artist Joins Ben Bernie Ben Bernie, United States dance band leader, is another famous radio personality who realizes the wealth of talent existing in Canada, Last week, from the 'ranks of 'hun- dreds of aspirants from many, pants of the United States, he selected a' young 'Canadian girl as featured voc- alist for his. orchestra. She was Lida Deane, of Montreal, who for some time was a mem'b'er of ""These Four," a quartet of singers presented from CBM 'over the national network of the Canadian Broadcasting Corpora-' tion. Bernie's representative, a visitor to Montreal, heard Miss Deane singing from the local CBC station while driving in his automobile. Following the ibroadcaat he suggested that she leave for •New York, there to take part in .auditions. When Bernie heard her sing he 'dismissed the other aspir- ants and offered her an attraotfve con- tract. She had the particular style and personality for which he was seeking.

Iulless Oats for Weanling Piga Young pigs have high efficiency for the •conversion of nourishing food into weight increase ;but low efficiency for the utilization of fibre. Except for this latter fact, ordinary oats would he a suitable grain, but the hulls 'dilute the food too much, and, unless very .finely ground •ar else coarse enough to be re- jected: during mastication, they irri- tate and clog the digestive tract. It is often advised to 'screen oat chop for weanling pigs but this is a laborious task frequently neglected. Unless mechanical means can be found to dehuil ordinary oats, the simpler way is to grow a variety that ed a's bad form to shoot at a picket threshes free of the hull.

' Science has performed wonders in recent years, b'ut hone greater than -the developments in furniture finish- ing. Modern homes create ,extremes never known by ancient furniture; ex- treme dryness in furnace -heated rooms in winter. A typical case was the one quoted earlier: the man who locks up his house, after draining the plumbing, and goes away for the win- ter. Imagine what happens when fur- niture is loaded into a moving -van in winter, after 'being carried out of a warm house, and is then shipped long distances in zero weather and rushed into another heated house. .And the finish has to be the out- side .guard, the bulwark against as- sault. On the roof of the C -I -L Paint & Varnish Division factory in Toron- to are hundreds of little plaques, ex- posed to rain and wind, sun and dust, heat and cold. Each bears a different composition of finish on it, paint or varnish. They are identified by labels; each is periodically cheoked and stud- ied and notation is made of fading, lalling, cracking, peeling. Tihey are just one little obese of the huge pro- cess of evolving the finest materials for protecting, yet beautifying, furni- ture and other products, Down in the big laboratories, other Sectors are studied. In practical tests in the offices and workshops, still other develop- ments are followed. This finish must .protect the whole furniture, A great deal of furniture has fancy carving on it. Some of this is called composition; itt other words,_ it is stamped out in presses .and then glued on. The 'best, of course, is the carving that is done by hand. The fin- ish must protect the tips of the carv- ing, the petals of flowers and so on, just as much as it must protect the valleys and carves. And when it is realized that usually at least a dozen ping by which the raspberries can' be sterilized so as to retain their nat- ural shape, color, and flavor without actual cooking.

Pat wanted to borrow some money from Michael who happened to have a small boy 'with him at the moment. 'Tis a fine kid you hare there, Mike," said Pat. "A magnificent head, and noble features. Could you lend me a couple of pounds?" "l could not," replied Mike. "'Ti. me wife's child by 'her first hus- band." His wife eyed him suspiciously. 'Henry," she said, "I trust you are coming hone at nine promptly to- night?" '"Well. my dear," he „aid hesitat- ingly. "I had thought about ten—" "Henry." she put in sharply, "what did yob say?" "'A'bou't ten minutes to nine," he quickly replied, one of a long line, a dozen or more, suspended from a 'beast. To move it is to move the entire dozen; even a hundredth of an inch change is exact- ly reflected in the others. In the same position beneath each of these other drills, which are driven by a aeries of motors and endless 'belt arrangement, other pieces of wood are clamped. The machine is then started into action, eadh drill rotating a tiny knife at terrific speed. The op- erator leans over the fin'is'hed master carving' in front of him, hypothetical- ly begins to carve it out anew. Actu- ally he just follows the design with his drill or knife. Bat the other knives are in earnest, whirling bits of wood and shavings from the dozen or more other blocks. A .few mantes later he stops the machine, removes all the newly carved blocks and sends them along to a finisher who completes the final, detail work for "finishing off". So. utilizing the forces of stature, the grain of wood and the tendencies to absorb moisture and the qualities of thing that 'go into varnish, master craftsmen build modern furniture. Undoubtedly, most of it will live long- er than did the same type of early furniture. Some day much of it will be antique. And it will still be good.
