Ward and Joe Dacoine (with guitar) both serving with the Canadian Forces -in England. The men.. sang hill -billy songs for the children, and gifts of clothing purchased with money subscribed by Indiana ' living on the Old Crow Reserve, Northern Yukon, were presented by the Rt. Hon. Vincent Massey, Canada's High Commissioner in London. Modern Etiquette II,—Modern tiquette .... .... .... .... 1. Is it proper to send gifts to the mother of a new-born baby? 2. Is it all right for an over- night guest to ask the hostess Air an extra blanket? 8. Ie it necessary to write any- thing on the card that accomp- anies a wedding gift? 4. What is a good thing to remember when playing bridge? 5. When entertaining a house guest and an invitation is re- eeived to some social affair, is it permitted to ask the hostess for an invitation for the guest? 6. Is it correct to eat frozen puddings with a fork or with a ;spoon? ANSWERS 1. Yes. Friends, as a rule nowadays, send flowers to the mother and perhaps some dainty apparel for the baby—such things as a Iace cap, a little sweater, or a pair of boots. This is not ab- solutely necessary, but it is con- sidered nice. '2. Yes. This should be done by all means if insufficient cov- ering has been provided. 8. No. The card is sufficient, as good wishes and congratula- tions are offered at the recep- tion 4. The words of one famous bridge authority: "Not everyone can play a faultless game; but everyone is certainly capable of the highest degree of etiquette tend courtesy—and these two slings go far towards making up for any lack of skill." 5. Yes, provided the entertain- ment is general enough to make ibis acceptable to the hostess. 16. With a fork. Store Up Steam In Accumulators British War Factories Have Saved Thousands of Tons of Fuel Thousands of tons of fuel have been saved in Britain's war fac- tories by storing steam in ace -limit - :Weis during air raids. Although factories do not shut down merely 011 getting the "alert," they have to do so when the roof spotters signal that the raiders are over- head. But instead of the boilers blow- ing off their steam into the air when work stops, the steam is gen- erated into the accumulators and stored, to be used when the raiders have passed. More than a thousand of these accumulators have now been in- stalled in iron and steel works, sugar refineries, breweries, da,ir- ' les, dyeworks and laundries. All acct on the same principle—the storage of. energy during off -peak - load periods, and the calling into action of this steam when produc- tion requires it. In one sugar refinery the instal- lation of a steam accumulator raised production by 12 per cent, and lowered coal consumption by, about 7 per cent. in a dairy the tae taken to produce condensed Milk was reduced by 20 to 25 per Dent, while in a brewery 16 per cent of the coal was saved. Out. put in a laundry was increased by le per cent after installing an ae- sUmulator, and the boiler effici- ioilcy of a dyeworks was improved from 66 to 74 per cent. Britain has the largest steam accumulators in the world, their (steal shells being 14 feet 0 inches in diameter by 82 feet long and *sighing approximately 1500 tons. Need 20,000 Pupils Have You Heard? For Ontario Farms Twenty thousand Ontario sec- ondary school students will bo needed to work on farms in the holiday season, A. McLaren, Farm Service Force Director, said re- cently. Students from twelve years of age up are being registered for farm help, he said. Camps were being established for girls from sixteen to nineteen who will be paid a minimum of 221/2 cents an hour for farm work and in such areas as the Niagara Pen- insula where piece worl. prevails the minimum must come up to this hourly rate. Boys would be paid $20 for the first month they work if they are inexperienced and $25 if they worked on farms last year. For the remainder of their employ- ment, their salary will be settled between themselves and their employers, Mr. MecLaren said. FARYON GOES TO QUAKER OATS REG. R. FARYON Reg. R. Faryon, formerly presi- dent of Lord & Thomas of Can- ada Ltd., has been appointed vice- president and general manager for Canada of Quaker Oats Com- pany. Canadian -born, Mr. Faryon has had long agency association with the company. For the past two years he has been with the parent agency in Chicago as vice- president. Norway's Clergymen Tender Resignations All clergymen in Norway have handed in their resignations to the Ministry for Church and Edu- cation in Premier Vidkun's Quis- respondent of the newspaper Tid- ling's government, the Oslo cor- ningen said. A long message was read on Easter Sunday in every Norweg- ian church giving reasons for the mass resignations, the story ad- ded. The clergy recently has been in conflict with the Nazi -con- trolled Quisling regime over youth control and other matters.

The small daughter sat watch- ing her mother making up her face, no doubt wondering what it was all about. When it came to the time for the application of the lipstick the small girl could con- tain herself no longer. "What do- you put all that on your face for, Mummie?" she asked. "Mummie puts it on to make her look pretty," came the reply. "Then why doesn't it?" asked the small girl innocently. And there was the Indian rope trick performer who was discharged from the navy be- cause every time he climbed the rigging he disappeared. A Hollywood actress was shred- ding a reputation at a night club. She stopped back-biting long enough to order a chicken sand- wichsand a glass of milk. "Wouldn't you," asked a friend of the victim, "prefer the milk in a saucer?" "What are seasoned troops?" asked the bright young thing on her first visit to an army camp. To which the new recruit replied: "Oh, they are mustered by the ser- geant and peppered by the enemy." Teacher: "Tommy, why is your composition on milk only half a page when I asked for two pages?" Tommy: "Well, you see, I wrote about condensed milk." The teacher was explaining the meaning of the word "recuperate" to young Tommy. "When your father has been working hard all day, he is tired and worn out, isn't he?" "Yes, miss." "Then, when night" comes and his work is over, what does lie do?" "That's what mother wants to know," Tommy replied. Man: Whatcha cryin' for? Boy: I lost my nickel. Man: Where? Boy: In Virginia. Man: How come? Boy: She swallowed it. 1�—•- Relieves MONTHLY —Th FEMALE PAIN Women who suffer pain of irregular periods with cranky nervousness due to monthly functional disturb- ances—should And Lydia E.

What Sci ece Is Doing Hungry people live longest—if the "are not too hungry, Edwin Teale writes in _Popular Science Monthly. A diet that contains all essentials in reduced quanti- ties is, next to long-lived ances- tors, the greatest aid to longev- ity. This is the conclusion of eight years of pioneer experi- ments with more than 2,500 white rats by Dr. Clive M. McCay, work- ing under a grant of the Rocke- feller Foundation at Cornell Uni- versity. White rats react to diet in the same manner as humans. Roughly ten days in the life of a rat is HANDY POCKET POUCH - 'I 50 "LOK-TOP" CAN • 650 also packed in pocket cans (11' DOES TASTE GOOD INA PIPE!" eamorga equal to one year in the life of a man. All • the rats were fed a basal diet, but those receiving only half rations lived longest. The reduced diet slowed down bodily activities. There were 'fewer white corpuscles in the blood stream, and the animals' hearts beat only, three hundred times a minute instead of the four hundred beats of the well-fed rat. Living more slowly, saving en- ergy, they lived longer. The Me- thuselah of the laboratory was an underfed rodent with a life span of 1,430 days—proportion- ately 148 years for a man. To find if excess in one kind of food shortened life more than excess in other kinds, Dr. McCay fed one group of middle -age rata excess sugar, another starch, a third whole -milk powder, and a fourth liver. All four over -fed groups lived approximately the same length of time. All died much sooner than they would have if they had continued on short rations. Over eating, no matter what, works against a long life. Dr. McCay could find no "long- evity foods". Nor could he find that a high protein diet short- ened the span of life. He thus sums up his findings: "Eat what you ought to eat first; then oat what you want to eat—but not too much of it." EVEN IF,'YOURi CiORNV IS AS.
