Zurich Herald, 1938-10-27, Page 7Hepburn, Murphy, Open New International Bridge Before a crowd of several thousand the new International Blue water Bridge between Port Huron, Mich„ and Sarnia, Ont., was officially opened by Governor Frank Murphy of Michigan, and Premier Mitchell Hepburn, of Ontario. Governor Murphy is pictured throwing the "United States" switch, while Premier Hepburn, RIGHT, looks on. HAVE 0 HEAR "Rock Of Ages" And The Bible The words of the well-known hymn "Rock of Ages" can be coupled with quotations or para- phrases from the Bible in a very interesting way. Of course, the song is not made up of literal quotations from the Scriptures, but the lines refer to passages which are strikingly similar: Rock of ages, cleft for me—Psalm 62: D-8 Let me hide myself in thee Exodus 33: 22 From thy riven side which flowed —John 19: 34 Be of sin the double cure — II Kings 2: 9-10 Cleanse from its guilt and power —Isaiah 1: 18 Not the labor of my hands—Psalm 69:6 ' Can fulfill the laws demands — • Matthew 5: 17-18 Could my zeal no respite know— Psalm 69: 6 Could my tears forever flow — Psalm 6: 6 All my sin could not atone—Heb- rews 10: 5-6 Thou must save, and thou alone —Hebrews 10: 8-10 Nothing in my hand I bring — Isaiah 4: 1 Simply to thy cross I cling—Gala- tians 6: 14 Naked, come to thee for dress— Romans 13: 14 Helpless, look to thee for grace — Philippians 4: 13 Foul, I to the fountain fly—Psalm 51: 7 Wash me, Savior, or I die—John 13: 8 While I draw this fleeting breath —Psalm 103: 15-16 When my eyelids close in death — Ecclesiastes 12: 3-7 When I soar to worlds unknown — John 14: 2-3 See thee on thy judgment throne —Matthew 25: 31 Rock of ages, cleft for me — I Corinthians 10: 4 Let me hide myself in thee — Psalm 17: 3. Two Mexicans quarreled and decided to fight a duel. To do this without attracting too much atten- tion, they took a train into the country. The first Mexican asked for a return ticket, but his op- ponent only took a single. "Ha-ha," laughed the first. "You expect not to come back, my friend? I always get a return." "I never do," replied the other calmly. "I always take my adver- sary's return half." You will notice," said the tech- nical master as he placed his fin- ger on a piece of mechanism and seized the handle, "that this ma- chine is turned by a crank." .And he marveled greatly at the laugh that ran round the class. There is a difference bare: Hubby—"Don't bring me any more bills, dear, I can't face them." Wife—"You needn't, darling. I only want you to foot thein," They had come to the mast im- portant and spectacular scene in the fil1n, and the director was ex- claiming what was to happen. "Now understand," he said to the hero, "in this scene the lion will pursue for 500 feet." The hero looked at the lion, then at the director. "Five hundred feet," Ile echoed, dismally. "Yes, that and no more. You understand," Our hero nodded. "1 do, but aloes ?he lion?" Inauguration lis f Air Express This Montle Trans -Canada Air- lines Began a Service Be- tween Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Winnipeg Inauguration of air express ser- vice between Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto and Winnipeg was, made Oct. 17th, by the Trans -Canada Airlines. The service extends the air ex- press routes now in operation be- tween Winnipeg and Vancouver to establish daily two-way complete express service by air between Montreal and Vancouver. The initial schedule calls for departure from St. Hubert Air- port at 7 a.m. (E.S.T.), arriving at Ottawa 7:53 a.m., departing 8:08 a.m., arriving at Toronto 9:56 a.m., departing 10:11 a.m., and arriving at Winnipeg 5.08 p.m. (C.S.T.). Leaving Winnipeg, eastbound departure will be daily at 6 a,m. (C.S.T.), arriving at Toronto 2:23 p.m. (E.S.T., departing 2:38 p.m.; arriving Ottawa 4:03 p.m., departing 4:18 p.m. and arriving at Montreal 5:03 p.m. New High Score On Export Bacon Canadian Art Show Has Taken L'.r, adon by Storm At the Eritish Dairy Farmers' As- sociation Dairy Show held in Lon- don September 26 to September 29, first award went to Canada Packers Limited, Toronto. The contest, which is open to all bacon curers in the British Empire (exclusive of the Irish Free State) is for the best bacon produced and cured in the British Empire. Each showing consists of four Wiltshire Sides, which are scored on the following basis: Style and Workmanship 15, Suit- ability of Sides 20, Firmness of Fat 10, Firmness of Rind 5, Colour 20, Flavour 30. It is interesting to note that the winner this year scored 96 out of the possible 100 points, and the first five exhibits all scored 92 points or better. This compares ' with a high. score of 87 points for the winner of the first prize last year, indicating the progress that is being made in Canada in the im- provement of export bacon. It is also interesting to note that since the contest on Wiltshires was first begun in 1923, the prize has been awarded to a Canadian firm every year. In the 16 years that the contest has run, first prize has been won by Canada Packers four- teen times. Footprints 34 inches long have been found in a Colorado mine. They belong to a 35 ft. high Iguanodont taking 15 ft. strides, which lived 8,000,000 years ago, the biggest animal yet found to have existed in North America. Paintings and Sculpture by Can- ada's Artists Receive Highest Praise In Old Country Exhi- bition Cznadi;'s "Century of Art" ex- hibit:on which, in October, . began its two -months run at historic Tate Gallery, has taken London by storm. Following the opening ceremon- ies which were attended by Lon- don's elite, including representa- tives of the entire diplomatic corps, crowds thronged the Thames -side gallery to view the highly -praised Canadian paintings and sculpture. "Extraordinarily Interesting." "England has vaguely known for some years that Canada has a mind of her own in matters artis- tic," says the Manchester Guardian, which describes the exhibition as "vigorous and • extraordinarily in- teresting." "Whatever may be happening in other corners of the empire, Can- ada alone can claim to have found- ed an independent school of paint- ing," the Manchester Guardian adds. Impression Of Freshness The Yorkshire Post declares it is not surprising that the exhibition as a whole should give an impres- sion of freshness and open air. With a continent at their doors, the paper says, artists have obeyed Constable's advice to seek commu- nion with Nature, without turning • to impressionism. Friendly Spiders Spiders, with very few ex- ceptions, are friends of our. They help to rid the garden of insect pests. They do not attack us, and may be tanned to take food from our fingers. They are among the most highly -developed artists in their line of endeavor. They have suspension bridges, trap doors, several grades of exquisite silk. They are balloonists of note and are famous as divers. One -Pound Apple SARNIA. — A-tisket, a-tas- ket, here's an apple too big for that little yellow basket about which everybody is singing. J. D. Mills, of Alex- andra, displayed a one pound apple, grown on his farm, at the market here. Many Problems Facing Britain Before Parliament Reconvenes Five Questions Will Have To Be Studied Government heads in Great Brit- ain before Parliament reconvenes November 1, are studying what to do about the following problems which confront them. 1. Germany's demand that Great Britain and others return colonies taken from the Reich at the end of the Great War; 2. Italian intervention in Spain, which is holding up fulfillment of the Anglo -Italian agreement; 3. Economic re -alignment of the Danubian states, being drawn into Germany's trade orbit at the ex- pense of Great Britain, France and Italy; 4. Economic and Political adjust- ment of Czechoslovakia, which would be lost to her former friends if Germany realizes Nazi hopes of a customs union with the dismem- bered republic; 5. Intensification of Britain's re- armament, described during the crtsis as inadequate to cope with modern war. One unanswered question was whether Great Britain would resist Germany's desire for colonial ex- pansion. Declaring he has given up Arc- tic adventure, John Rymill, South Australian explorer, sailed for England to marry Miss Eleanor Francis. These are the purest and finest papers made— ('-') and they come in the 1� handiest Booklet CAN PREDICT TOOTH DECAY Tooth decay is being diagnosed and even predicted as long as twelve months in advance for pa- tients never seen by the examin- er. Developed in experiments at Michigan School of Dentistry, the process rel;es on the important diagnostic relationship between the Lactobacilli and the presence of cavities in the teeth. An ac- curacy of more than 80 per cent. has already been achieved. MOONLIGHT, RADIO PRODUCED A new use for radio, to light the sky fifty miles overhead as brightly as the full moon does, is proposed in Nature, British official science journal. The new light would be an artificial aurora. A. single radio station could cover a patch of sky sixty miles in diam- eter with this light. It would il- luminate country roads as well as ordinary lighting systems would, and could be used anywhere, CANCER OVER 60 An "alarming" increase in can- cer deaths among persons over 60 shows that their period of life is the "dreaded cancer age" for Americans. Deaths in the -over -60 class almost doubled from 1910 to 1930. HEAT TREATMENT OF STEEL A revolutionary heat -treating process in steel making was de- veloped at the Kearny (N.J.) lab- oratories. By its use ordinary carbon steels can be given prop- erties otherwise obtainable only in the more complex alloy steels. A piece of steel can be made hard enough to scratch glass and yet remain so ductile that it can be bent into a coil of small diam- eter. SNAKE VENOM EYE TREAT- MENT The venom of snakes (rattle- snakes, watermoccasins, cobras) most deadly to man may soon prove one of the most effective treatments to save eyesight, a South American physician de- clares. Such conditions as inflammation of the tiny arteries of the eye, blood clots in the eye veins, and spasms of the blood vessels have been treated with the venom. Royal Winter Fair Is Still Growing A brilliant unbroken record of seventeen years in the two -fold field of Canadian agriculture and international horsemanship will be still further advanced when the Royal Winter Fair opens at To- ronto on November 15 with a pro- gramme of wider scope, more vivacity, larger prizes and greater variety than have marked its cumulative successes of the past. International army officers' teams are coming from Chile, Mexico, Eire and the United States to compete with Canadian officers in the numerous Horse Show events of the eight -days' en- gagement. '170 Classes In Horse Show Several operating changes in the Horse Show should speed up the performances enabling a larger number of classes than in any previous year, now totalling 170, to be run off in shorter time schedules. On its agricultural side similar IT POURS (LEANL ` „,,. V„,,. r improvements have been made in the Royal Winter Fair classes. En- tries from new competitors in the United ,states, notably in dairy cattle and in sheep, have been re- ceived, It is hoped that with herds from P. E. 1. and British Colum- bia, all nine Canadian provinces will find representation this year, The Flower Slww The Royal Flower Show, always engaging to a wide circle of es- thetie taste, is being recast and enlarged. Fox, mink, dog, cat and fancy fish shows are being held, Largest single increase is in the Poultry Show, where almost a whole floor has been taken for a novel exhibit by the combined poultry industry, Dominion De- partment of Agriculture, egg pro- ducers and manufacturers of sup- plies.

This well has every indication of being a really good producer, as it is usual, in order to obtain the best flow of oil in this section of the country that drilling must extend to 450 feet. iimaesiw ClassiFied AdverksthgI AGENTS WANTED WORLD'S LARGEST PUBLISHING company can use full or part-time agents to solicit orders for Pictor- ial Review, Good Housekeeping and Cosmopolitan, which are just a few.
