-;;. "• ` .being hoisted aboard
Here is one of the planes carried by the British battleship, King George V,
after a flight. It is a Walrus amphibian. Exploits of British fliers operating from naval unite in the Medi-
terranean and off the European coast are becoming more frequent and more daring daily, and they take a
proud place in the line-up against the Axis powers.

:ow Can i?
BY ANNE ASHLEY
Q. How can. I clean painted
walls without using soap?
A. Use two ounces of hovels in
two quarts of water and one tea-
spoon of ammonia. Use about
half this quantity to each bucket
of water, and no soap will be re-
quired.
Q. How 'can I make use of dis-
carded umbrella ribs?
A. These ribs snake good and
lasting supports for trailing
flowers. If they are painted a
soft green, they will hardly be
noticed in the garden.
'Q. How can I make an econ-
omical deodorizer for a sick
room?
A. An economical deodorizer
can be made out of a pint of
vinegar boiled with one quart of
myrrh.
Q. How can I bleach silk, wool,
linen, or cotton?
A. The best bleaching process
for these materials is to use one
teaspoon of peroxide of hydrogen
to Ora tiib of cold 'water. Let the
clothes soak in this ovenight; then
rinse and wash as usual. This'
does not injure the fabric and
imparts a pure White.
Q. How can I prepare a good
wall paper cleaner?
A. Mix two cups of flour and.
one tablespoonfuls of kerosene
with enough water to make a stiff
dough; then knead thoroughly.
Use like ordinary cleaner.
Cameras Not Guns
Shoot Air Target
Ordinarily Trans -Canada Air
Lines uses models of its aircraft
for window display purposes. At
least one of them has a new pur-
pose in life as a target for anti-
aircraft practise by, the military.
An Essex County regiment has
borrowed one to shoot at. For-
tunately for the model, camera
guns will be used and not the real
thing.
New Long Look
Seen in Sweaters
The longer fitted sweater is a
rival now for the very short one.
The new type has been slowly
making headway in influencing
the sweater trend until now the
movement is. definitely to longer
fitted types.
Many of the brief sweaters that
last year would have been waist-
leilgth are now inching down to
cover the hips. You will find them
in daytime and evening sweaters,
either sinoothly molded or with
waistline nipped in by ribbing or
finer stitches, and reinforced here
by elastic threads to hold them
in. Pullovers with such nipped -in
waistlines or with draping at the
hips and high necklines zipped at
back as well as the long semi -
folded skirt pullover are especi-
ally new -looking.

agent.
"Wrong! Wrong!" exclaimed .
Brown, "The other morning we
woke up .and found that the place
bad floated two miles down the
river."
"H'in," said the agent blandly
enough, "that's a good stroke of
luck. The taxes are niiuch lower

There's no waste.
SUPER -GIANT STARS
Dr. Ralph E. Wilson has work-
ed out a new astronomical yard- --
stick by using rare super -giant
"C" type stars.
It will serve to determine dis-
tances to these stars, among the
largest in the sky, and to nearby
star system's. ..
Only about 400 of the stars
have been found, the Mount Wil-
son observatory astronomer said
last week. He used 246 of thele
in his studies.
"They range in color front red,
orange, yellow, whitish=yello3 and
white to blue," said Dr. Wilson.
"They 'are distinguished from
other stars by the abnormal in-
tensities of the hydrogen lines
and by the sharpness of the oxy-
gen,, nitrogen, iron and silicon ,
.lines in their spectra."
NEW PRODUCTS HASTENED
The speed, with which scientific
research is translated into com-
mercial products is demonstrated
in a report made by Arnold E.-
-
•Pitcher, general manager of the
planting department of the 'due
Pont Company, in which he dis-.
closes that three-quarters of all
the plastics that the company ex-
pects to produce during the pres-
ent year have originated in the
laboratory in the, last forty-eight
months.
POOR i11ET AND CANCER
Evidence showing slow poor
diet can become one of the causes
of cancer was reported last week
in science by five Memorial Hos-
pital (N.Y.) physicians.
The cancers were in animals,
but were important because lately
physicians have reported in hu-
mans occasional cancers thatda
seemed to be helped by
t
changes, such as high vitamins or
high proteins,
. The sale of unclaimed baggage and ar ieleaoundasner Canadan .I

ways System .for the period end-
ing March 81st, 1041, were $7,-

Suer Special
Delivery Asked
Super -special delivers- of air-
mail was requested of Trans-
Canada Air Lines a few days
ago. A passenger malting her
first flight asked the .stewardess
if he would request the captain
of her, trip to fly over her grand-
son's home en route as she wanted
to drop him a birthday card•---
airnlail. The stewardess advised
less spectacular methods and pro -
demi an airmail stamp.
"Now perhaps you'll wants
shave?" queried the barber
who had just given five-year-
old Bobbie his first profes-
sional haircut.
Bobbie (after feeling of
his face): "I guess there
wouldn't be enough shavings,
would there?"
A robbery had been committed
!in the English village, and a de-
tective had been sent to investi-
gate.
"Have you seen any mysterious
Ystrangers about here lately?"
asked the detective of the old vil-
lager.
"Yes, sir," replied the old man.
"There was a man 'ere with the
circus last week, an"'e took a pair
o' rabbits out 0' my whiskers1"
First Irishman: "Which
would yez rather be in Pat—
an explosion or a collision?"
Second ditto: "In a collis-
ion. Because in a. collision •
there yez are, but h, an ex-
plosion where are yez?"
"I would like to meet you
again," he murmured, as they
glided through the waltz. "What
about letting ane have your tele-
phone number?"
"It's in the book," she told
him,
"Good! What's your name?"
"You'll find that in the book
also," she said.

BY ROBERTA LEE
1. What is the correct expres-
sion to use when thanking some-
one for a courtesy?
2. How can a person disting-
uish between genuine hospitality
and that which is affected?
3. Is it correct for the bride
and her attendants to arrive at
the church about a half-hour be-
fore the ceremony is to begin?
4. When a young man wishes
to ask a girl for a date, is it all
right for him to say: "ATe you
going to be busy Wednesday eve-
ning?"
5. Isn't it improper for a carts
player to begin arranging his
cards before the entire hand has
been dealt?
6. When a dish is passed to one
at the table by a servant, should
one say "Thank you?"
