City of London: 1660 They went down the steep pitch of the hill and crossed Thames Street.where the warehouses over- flowed with naval stores , , . Carts Tumbled by. full of timber and coal for the wharves of Billingsgate and Queenbithe; cables, and ropes and wheat and rye for the ships loading at the Steelyard. Men and women took the air in doorways under the swinging, painted signs, in the bow windows, on the leads at the house- tops. Everywhere were lighted panes, and hawkers up the hillside crying fish and lavender and what- d'ye-lack - . . Great Paul's loomed oblong, blue -gray and unlit, to the westward; and to the cast, beyond the almshouses and apple trees, rose the four onion -shaped turrets of steel -gray stone and whitewash that made London Tower, The Bridge stretched ahead of then, low street of houses built on stone archways and rubble starlings: the fantastic, gold -veined cupolas of Non -such House rising empty near the center; its casements flapping, and its green paint peeling off, and its great days over, People were going to vespers at St. Magnus' by the Bridge Head, and they could hear the groan and whir of the works near by that pumped river water into the city, that could throw a thin stream over the church steeple.—Froth "Rivers Parting," by Shirley Barker.

These lovelies, left to right: Dorothee Wolf, Mary Sanios and Mary Jane Vignola, are real detectives—"Private eyes" whose job is in the public eye. When this picture was taken they had just been credited with apprehending a shoplifter with a long record. Miss Sanios spotted the thief with $260 worth of stolen goods in a store and all three girls held onto the culprit until police arrived. Well, if you've got to be arrested, what better way than being held by threegirls such as those? • ICLES 1NGERFAR '%Y Gwen -dolt -me 0 Ct&A.¢ The easiest way to write this col- umn is to start at the end of the week and work backwards. -What happened yesterday is still fresh in my mind, whereas events that happened early in the week scent like a month away—especially if the week has been extra busy— as last week- certainly vas. 1•Iow ever, working backwards isn't real- ly very satisfactory so, to check up on myself, I made out a Monday to Saturday review of the week's happenings—and here is what 1. found we bad been doing, Monday the baling machine mov- ed in . . . another 500 bales ready for the mow. Tuesday a phone call from Kate Aitken's, Division at the Coliseum, inviting nae to a press preview on Wednesday. 1 hadn't any idea what it would be like but since I ant always ready for new experiences 1 accepted—IF 1 could get away. There is always an "ii" when a farm woman plans to go places. Wednesday l made a batch oii beet pickle, also some apple sauce. Then I left things ready for: Part- ner and took the 3 p.m. titin .to Parkdalc. The preview was:. furl, To go through even a small part of the Exhibition ahead of time was quite an education. I 'wondered how the Big Fair could possibly he ready to open in two days' time. There was clutter everywhere carpenters finishing stalls for ea- hibits; electricians running around fixing wires, exhibitors wanting to know why their stalls weren't ready. others more fortunate, un- packing and arranging their dis- plays. Hammers ringing all over the place as metal touched metal or pounded on wooden fixtures. Moth- ers fixing their children for model- • ling in the fashion parade. Oue little tot, about six, was having lipstick put on. "Now don't you dare touch your mother after you've dressed," warned her mother.- "If you get lipstick on that white fur you've had it .. and so has Mum- my!„ About 7 o'clock dinner was an- nounccd in the Tea Court. 1 have no idea how many people were there but every available scat was taken, The dinner was put on for all the exhibitors in Mrs. Aitken's special section, and also as a p e - view for the press. It was delight- fully informal, Some of the guests, noticing the crowd was too great for the waitresses to cope with, be- gan helping with the job. One man would go to the serving counter, ask for a tray and bring back -what- ever was required at his table. If you wanted more coffee the quick- est way to get it was to go after it. 1t was as amusing as the Mad Hatter's Tea -Party in "Alice in Wonderland" — except that you couldn't trove over as there was no place to move to. Then sirs. A. appeared on the scene—smart, efficient and charism- Mg as always. Models in the Vaslt- ion Parade carne and went at ber bidding. Little tots, modelling ev- erything from white fur .scts to play suits. Older girls in sports suits; sophisticated young ladies in evening gowns, fur coats or street clothes. Even nacre males were taking part, modelling every type of suit front office wear to casuals. But even the Fashion Parade was informal. Electricians were cross- ing the stage at intervals to make connections with their work behind the scenes. And Horace Lapp was so busy watching the models that he occasionally forgot to give With the music! A trip to the 1 xhibi- tion itself is going to be even more interesting after this entertaining peep behind the scenes. About 9:30 I showed up at Daughter's place to spend the aright. 1 knew she had gone to Ohio for part of her holidays and aright not be back—but I had a latch -key so it didn't matter. Sure enough , . no Daughter. I pulled out the day- bed, found sheets and blankets, and went to bed. Shortly after • midnight Daughter arrived hone. Wondering.. why her room was !it up :viten the rest of the house was in darkness, she opened the door— and there I was! Of course we had to talk for a couple of hours. Next morning I took the train and came horse to rest up. , Then came Friday. Extra help to get the bales into the barn. Two wagons and tractors on the go and a hurry -up supper for the helpers. And another new calf up in the back pasture. While Partner was milking I brought horse the mother and off -spring, and all three of us did a grand job of getting tangled up in sweet clover and knee-high chicory. Also bad a small party to go to that night. And then about midnight a phone rail .. . Partner's brother arriving by 3 a.m. train. That was the be- ginning. By the next afternoon we had five extra for the week -end. And THIS, is the morning after! ti Useful Mosquitoes! At last. Science has found a use for mosquitoes. At the New York State Agricultural Experimental Station mosquito larvae or "wrig- glers" are used in a bio-assay to determine the amount of residual toxic material on fruits and vege- tables. Mosquito larvae are extrem- ely sensitive to the sprays. Less than one part of the toxic sub- stance in 10,000,000 parts of vege- table can be detected. The insecti- cide used must be known before its presence can be measured. Toxicants differ in their 'reaction patterns. the station explains, and only if the insecticide has been identified docs the mosquito assay appy.

The Larger Fellowship of Christians Acts 11:27-30; 15:1-2; 22, 23, 28-31; 2 Cor. 9:1-5. Memory Selection: He that is not against us is for us. Luke 9:50b. It is sometimes cynically infer- red that Canada is becoming "a Welfare state". While opposing communism we are advancing more and more into the field of social service. Very few of those who benefit directly from it, complain. Others, alarmed at the rising costs, declare that it tends to destroy initiative. In the early days of Israel's his- tory, church and state functioned as one. They were not separated as they are to -day. We read such commands as "When thou b€atest thine olive tree, thou shalt not go over the boughs again: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow". Deut. 24; 29. In the period of New Testament history the church was distinctly separate from the 'Roman gavern- ment, The church had to care for itself. Hence Christians in one country were intensely concerned about the welfare of their brethren in other countries. When famine struck Judea, the Christians in An- tioch, Macedonia, and Achaia gave generously to help. Paul helped to direct the relief work. One Faust not say that he used high pressure methods on the Corinthians, He did not compel then to give but by recounting the generosity of the poor Macedonians be sought rarn.• esttly to stake them .willing to give. The entry of Centiles into the Christian fellowship presented some problems. To what extent must they take on the customs of the Jews. The matter was settled at a conference in Jerusalem. Gentile% Faust abstain from treats offered to idols, and from blood, and frow things strangled, and from fora. cation. T he conduct of the (Arris- tiaras is not governed by many !awe but by divine love whirrs ,•,^11e,t hint want to live after the example set by his Saviour,. lC. WOMAN DRIVER A man was edging his car i'r heavy traffic past a woman driver who was trying to revere into parking space that was obviously too small, Suddenly her car swung out and bumped into the other car.
