W.P.T.B. Notes
From Mary Turner. Field Represen-
tative. Wartime Prices and Trade
Board, London.
A demand that could not be met
by an increased production was res-
ponsible for the rationing of jam in
Canada, according to figues recently
made public by the Wartime Prices
and Trade Board. Since the outbreak
of the war production has been stea-
dily climbing until last year it reach-
ed 70 million pounds, ofwhich nine
Million were exported, leaving 61
million pounds which was not enough
to satisfy the demands of Canadians
who in 1939 consumed 39 million
bo'inds. Just why jam should assume
such a popular role in the Canadian
menu is not definitely known but at-
eording to observers, Canadians are
buying food with money that once
went for luxuries, now unavailable
because of curtailed production.
While it is the nninion of many
that the term "unfit veal" covers
that from calf under three weeks
old, the term also includes any veal
having the following characteristics:
•
men's hospitals have a high repute -
requires delivery of 675 million, tion of skill and efficiency through -
pounds of pork and pork products,
which is one and a quarter times the
total pork production in 1939. The
present year's contract calls for a
shipment to Britain of 63 million do-
zen eggs in powdered form.
The wholesale ceiling prices on
spring lamb are effectivain any year
after July 27. Before that date there
is no ceiling. A recent instruction de-
fined spring lamb as that born in the
year in which it is sold or in Decem-
ber of the previous year.
In banning conditional sales, the
Wartime Prices and Trade Board
has curbed the practice of feed deal-
ers who require farmers to buy flour
with the purchase of mill feed. Feed
dealers who established this practice
on or before the basic period of Sep-
tember 15 to October 11, 1941, may
continue, others may not begin the
practice now and must discontinue it

only one maternal death was record-
ed in a year, with an average of 150
babies being born every month. Wo-
men's surgery obstetrics and gyneco-
logy are all practiced with the most
up-to-date methods. There were 11,-
437 births and 8,611 operations in
one year in Salvation Army hospi-
tals, and 21,520 patients were ad-
mitted.
Sunset Lodges for Aged Ladies.
In pleasant surroundings with con-
stant companionship old ladies' are
able to enjoy the sunset years of
their lives in the care of Salvation
Army homes which are located at
Calgary and Winnipeg. There are
183 guests at these homes, many of
whom have regained their desire to
live in the cheerful atmosphere of
the Home. Wooten of all nationalities
all religions find that no such word
as prejudice exists, and their latter
years slip peacefully and pleasantly
away in the belief that they are )vel

Eventide Homes for .Aged Men.
There are four eventide homes for
aging men in Canada, the guests
ranging in age from about 50 to the
century mark. Many business and
professional men find comfort and
solace within the confines of Salva-
tion Army care. Some are blind.
Some are frail and rheumatic, but
all find kindness at the hands of
their friends and counsellors, the
Salvation Army.
Prison Work. One of the most vit-
ally important branches of Salvation
Army work is the help given to ex
convicts as well a sto those actually
serving sentences. Families of pris-
oners are not forgotten, and many a
mother and a wife has been grateful
for the consolation and help given to
her while her loved one is serving his
term, Salvation Army officers in
Canada, during the past year, paid
10,585 visits to prisons and police
courts; 1,502' men and women were
committed to Army care instead of
going to jail; 6,715 prisoners were
met on discharge;, 2,662 then ad wo-
men were restored to their own

homes, to former employment or
work was found for them. Bells and
meals slumbering approximately 16,-
800 were given to ex -prisoners;
9,573 were given material assistaneo
and 6,813 visits were made. in the
interests of prisoners to their famil-
ies or to prospective employers; 2,-
668 religious services were held in
penitentiaries at which 91,609 per-
iodicals were distributed.
Missings Friends Department. The
Salvation Army will go to any
lengths to locate missing persons. It
takes but a moment to write that
764 enquiries were received at the
Headquarters and that the Army was
successful in locating 434. Behind
this .simple statement, however, lies
tremendous e}f qrt and that no stone
is left unturned to find the missing
friend.
Industrial Departments. Eigteen
industrial departments operate in
Canada. Not only are old, discarded
articles made over into esefpl and
attractive things, but the men who
work at re -building the worn-out
furniture, the broken toys, the
twisted and misshapen baby car-
riages and the shabby shoes, are also
re -building their own lives. Many
'of them are ex -convicts, finding
their way back to normal paths of
life after .many years in jail; others
are unemployable in other fields,
having become partly crippled. In
this way the Salvation Army serves
a three -fold purpose: First, of salv-
aging unwanted 0 rworn-out mater-
ials; secondly of giving occupation
to many who would otherwise be un-
employable, and thirdly of providing
a store of inexpensive goods for
those who cannot afford much for
what they need.
Homes for Boys and Girls. There
is a home for girls in Toronto; a
home for boys in London and the
Calgary Home has both boys and
girls ranging in age from three to !
seventeen years. The background of!
these children, numbering more than
200 in homes in Canada is varied
and sometimes tragic, but the Army
opens its generous arms to all. Chil-
dren are of all colors and creeds.
Often their health when they first
come into Army care is poor but the
progress made both spiritually and
physically is often remarkable.
Summer Camps. From squalid, i11 -
kept homes in th e slums to the clean
fresh surroundings of a- sunnner
training camp are brought hundreds
of children every year through the
efforts of the Salvation Army. There
are camps scattered across the Dom-
inion and inono camp alone last
year 645 children were given ten
days of pure delight at a Fresh Air
Camp.
Countless numbers benefit. Al,
though it would be virtually imposs-
ible to estimate the number of per-
sons who have received material and
Spiritual help from The Salvation
Army, but it is true to state that ap-
proximately 1,357,489 individuals
sxraterially benefitted through Salva-
tion Army help.
WORLD'S HIGHEST RAIty/Ay
Locomotives to cross the Andes
over the highest railway line in the
world are to be made in Great
Britain.
They are for the Central Railway
o$ Peru, the sumrgit of which is
15,808 ft. abgye sea level, the great-
est height of any standard gauge
railway anywhere.
The line has 41 bridges, .61 tun-
pele and 13 reversing stations. It
twists up the Andes for 74 miles of
practically 1 in 25 grade. Here each
of the .two locomotives about to ire
made in Britain will take a load of
from 350 to 400 tons.
They are 2.8.0 engines of general
utility type for passenger and goods
trains, with tenders arranged for oil -
burning and weighing 174 tons each.
Nine such engines, specially- de-
signed for the extremely severe con-
ditions, have been supplied to the
Central Railway and three similar
units to the Southern Railway of
Peru. The latest order will make a
total of fourteen ordered by Peru in
the last five years, apart from four
huge articulated locomotives for
goods service.
