"I felt so guilty about all this that last night I told my wife. She was badly hurt, but said if I want my freedom I can have it. .. I am hopelessly confused.

In no country in the world is there such a confusion of weights and measures as in Brit- ain, After much squabbling, the British Standards Institution de- cided in 1949 that the "teaspoon" for kitchen use should be of blue or green plastic, round in shape and contain 100 miniins or drops; and that a teaspoon for medi- cine should be red, oval in shape and hold 60 minims. A gallon contains 76,800 minims, But some measures have not reached this level of simplicity. The stone Is a confusing weight. On an ordinary avoirdupois weii hing machine a stone equals 14 lb.; for meat, 8 Ib. ]Hake a stone: for cheese, U; 1b.: for hay. 22 lb.; for wool, 24 ib. The ordinary ton is 2,240 lb.; the short or American ton, 2,000 lb.; metric ton, 2,201.6 lb.; dis- placement ton, 35 cubic feet; freight ton, 40 ruble ft.; register ton. 100 cubic ft. If you wish to buy celery whole .rte you buy. by the roll, containing 8 heads if washed, 12 if dir+.y. Fish is sold by the trunk, which varies from 10-14 lb.; or by the quintal (Arabic; renew, a weight of 100 lb.), or by a large tub called a kit (from Norwegian, l.:ttte, meaning bin). Carrots are sold by the bunch, cucumbers by the flat, radishes by the hand, apples and pota- toes by the sieve (56 ib. in the North, 521b. in the South), cloth by the bolt, wool by the last, and glass by the seam. They make the ordinary man dizzy, though those: in the trades seem perfectly happy about it.

This time last year we were pretty well snowed in and not liking it one bit—but at least there was moisture in the snow. Of course if one doesn't have to worry about water it is wonderful weather — and last Saturday was a perfect clay for the Santa Claus parade in Tor- onto. That is something I have always wanted to see and never have—until this year when I saw it on television. Television? Oh no, not our own set. I just hap- pened to visit one of the• stores deem town at the right moment. It was remarkably clear -- no flickering at all. In . fact I was almost persuaded that television might be all right after alt, But I wasn't enthused to the point of wanting tui to spend $400 on a set --although I am sure Partner would enjoy watching the hockey matches. We have lots of company again now and sometimes I feel as if I am talking to myself as the name of one of our visitors is "Gwen." The gentleman of the party is a farmer so he got him- self a job down at the barn with a tractor and spreader. At his own request, of course. Some- times I wonder why people ever come to see us at all for they are never treated as guests. And, as a means of getting out of work this column 'provides me with a wonderful alibi. For instance we have an extra couple staying here uut.fl tomorrow so I quite calmly announced that I had my column to write and would they call me when supper was ready( They did. We have been having quite a time with cars just lately: The visiting car developed starter trouble. While it was in the garage I wanted to go down town with our car but the battery was as flat as a deflated balloon. "Oh, dear, there goes another $30," I thought. (batteries for English cars are dearer than others), But I was wrong, It was just a matter of corroded connections. I was so relieved I felt then as if I had been - given $30 so I was really much happier- than I had been before. This afternoon we wore driving through a rather hilly part of the county and it was heartbreaking to notice how terribly dry the, fields looked. But one particular field we passed was more heart- breaking than all the rest. The field was just one big hill. It had been ploughed, and the plough- ing was a straight up and down job. If ever a field called for contour ploughing that one did. Sometime we are bound to get some heavy rains a1151 when they come the rain will run down that hill like water down a rainspout, By contrast, when I was on the train going to Ottawa last sum. mer I noticed contour ploughing in a field that was perfectly flat. Now what was the reason for that? I have often wondered. There is plenty of arguing going on around here these days. Our visitor is a Guernsey man; Partner favours grade Ayreshires -.the other man pure-breds. So, various arguments are tossed back and forth like shuttlecock:,. neither man giving in to th- other—as so often happens when two stubborn Englishmen get to gether. The same thing applies to the woodpile, The men trough+ ENR tLL to the SPRING CLASS rtl Yho Memorial hospital St. Thomas, Ont, t2surdve n sound 0808811(8 in the Arte and Skills 00 Nursing under competent, wall ouv11043 lnstrueior4 he NurOm, at u low root.

One chunk in particular was about thirty inches in diameter and full of lovely big knots. Our visitor said he would split it during the day. Partner said, "I bet you don't 1" The would - be wood - splitter waited until Partner had gone to milk and then he took up the challenge. He worked for over an hour on that one cut, and all the time it was a tussle between the toughness of the knotted oak and the will and strength of the man. The man won out, When Partner came in he was treated to a graphic description of the contest. It brought forth many scathing remarks but in the end Partner grudgingly admitted— "You are darn near as stubborn as I am !" Another argument concerned rubber boots and a dead chicken. Partner had killed a chicken and hung it in the woodshed. Our visitor came in from the barn and placed his boots under the chicken, which was still drip- ping from the beak. There was no place for it to drip except into the boots. Then followed the argument—which was put there first—the boots or the chicken? Our visitor naturally insisted that Ms boots were there first and that Partner deliberately . hung the chicken strategically i above them. t AIR QUESTION A Holywood - columnist once circulated an erroneous report of W.

Y., in 1865, to watch Louis Fox and Jolm Deery vie with each other for a billiards world champion- ship — and $50,000. For some time it was a ding- dong battle; then Fox crept into the lead. Deery was dejected and downcast. Isis opponent needed but one point to win the title and the cash prize. Fox teed up for the winning shot. He held his cue poised against the ball as a Ay buzzed through the room and lit on the billiard ball. Fox shooed it away. It circled and again made a six - point landing on the ball. Angri- . ly this time, the player made a lunge at the fly with his cue. In so doing he moved the cue ball — and lost the chance to win,„ That same evening Fox took his life.
