Many's the cook who hesitates to

CHRONICLES OF GINGER FARMS
P Clarke
By Gwendoline
Something tells me a lot of people
are not nearly particular enough
about giving correct addresses, or in
writing clearly if, and when, they do
give them. How otherwise can one
account for the amount of misdirect-
ed letters that come through the
mail?
Today we had a letter come along
from a business firm in Toronto and
all the address it gave was "airs.
Clark" and the name of our local
post office. No initials, no rural
route, no box number. Imagine .. .
with a name like Clarke! It had al-
ready been to two other Clarice's in
the.district. Of co""urse I opened it—
how else could 1 he sure whether it
was for me or um? FIowever, ane
look at the ,nature of the conuuuni-
cation told me that it wasn't—but
definitely. 1. just can't understand
any business firm allowing a 'letter
to go out addressed merely to "Mrs.
Clarke".
* *
Bob ;also gets no ens of mail in-
correctly sent to lain—and with the
right initials. In his case it is the
non-. of the post of fide that has been
wrongly thec- the difference be-
tween ,the two place names being only
one letter—the letter "W'' which had,
been mistaken for "11". As Yon
know, these two letters, in longhand,
look very much •alike if carelessly
written, but they can hardly be mis-
taken if printed. Maybe you who
read -are sometimes guilty in this
respect; if so why not give the mat-
ter a little more thought add not
leave quite 5o much guessing t0 post
office officials. After all, nn one
wants to lose their mail. (All right—
have it which way you like—but I
definitely didn't say "male".)
Sometimes we get quite a kick out
of the eorrespondencc that comes for

Bob, because, according to it, R. G.
Clarke has recently acquired a wife.
That mail no one has to open before
returning it to the post office. We
know it doesn't belong here, since
at present, "Mrs. R. G. Clarke" does-
n't exist.
Getting the mail is quite a chore
these clays. Generally it comes along
around eleven o'clock—incidentally,
if Partner doesn't have his daily pap-
er with his dinner bethinks he might
as well not come in. But most of
this week we have been out of luck.
And how 1 love to walk clown the
lane to anis three times for nothing,
just when the lane is knee-deep in
snow, and a cold, cold wind biting
my ears off! Apparently our mail-
man has been having car trouble and
one of the other couriers has been
doubling up for him. .Naturally he
does his own regular route first.
* ,R *
Oh that lintel So mucic snow .hat
neither cars nor trucks could plough
through it, or if they could it west
worth the effort because the tracks
would fill in again nlinost at once.
And here wm were with two crates
o,. eggs to ship anis a can of cream—
to say nothing of the milk that has to
go out, come hind, come weather,
first thing every morning. The boys
have had quite a time. Twice, to be
sure of getting away in the morning,
they left the car and track at the
road all u:ght. Rut the vehicles did-
n't like it They thought it was far ton
cold and lapsed into a sort of sulky
coma. Yesterday morning it was •
nearly an hour before either of them
could be persuaded into showing any
glimmering of life. Last night they
were brought in so this morning they
responded by being a little less cau-
tanker, u -
Did you ever see such a pile of
snow? And we thought the worst
of the winter was Net about over. I,11
say the ground -hog knew what he
was about a few weeks ago! That's
just the way I feel first thing in the
morning. At 5.30 a.m. I often wonder
why anyone ever thought of farming
as a means df making a living. But
after a while t feel better. Getting up
oat a cold morning is like taking a
dive—once you've made the first
plunge it's all right.

TEEN -TOWN TOPICS
By BARRY
Oh-h-li-h. met It must be here.
Gosh,, next" Sunday' it will be here.I'm referring to spring of coarse.
Smell 't h a t air,
feel that sun-
shine. Well it
really wasn't
such a bad wint-
er, Guess I'll have
to put the hick-
ories away for
another season,
I'll bet you're so
busy cramming
for those easter exams, you have
little time to think of anything else.
But don't become so engrossed with
Shakespeare and Darwin that you
fail to realize that in spring the
buds come' out and a young man's
fancy turns . , . and all that sort of
bosh.
ft Can Be Done
uys out there seem
Since all you g
so perturbed about clothing going up
in price a notch, we have some more
news that might console you. With
spring almost ]fere, you have probab-
ly been pulling last year's jackets
and slacks out of the moth balls and
wondering if they will get by for
another season. It seems to be a mis-
conception among sten—especially
young men with little to jangle in
their jeans—that to dress you must
have lots of that where -with -all. No
me friendlies, apparently not. A
leading authority on men's clothes
says this: If a man or boy can afford
to dress, he can afford to dress well.
It's a case of selecting the proper
clothes, tate "know how" of wearing
them (this is important) and an
average degree of neatness. All of
this can be done on the most modest
budget. So fellow -fellows, buy a new
tie, press those slacks and jackets
and then step out and knock 'ens
flat. (yak, yak, it says here)
Have One Of Your Own
Are you one of those badminton
enthusiasts? Probably have to go ten
miles or ten blocks to enjoy a game
of a sutnnter's evening and then come
home tired out. Tired from all that
going and corning. Well by golly,
you don't have to. No siree, if you
have a backyard 20 by 44 you can
have your own court right at home.
In selecting a spot; locate in an area
where there is no high wind. Your
friends and yourself can go -together
and purchase a regulation net with
corner stands, plus rackets and
shuttle -cocks and away .you go. Some
people lilce a concrete nr asphalt
court, but you can play just as:Roily
on grass or bare ground. If you are
interested in your own back -yard
court. crop us a line and w`e'll.:send
.you the exact dimensions and layout
of a badminton court.
Don't Watt Too Long
. These nice paying summer jobs
MUREAR
you have been enjoying the past few
years' are going tobe scarce this
season, so we would advise you to
get out and line, up something soon.
Don't come along after the "meaty"
jobs have been handed out, or you
will probably wind up on the end of
a broom.
