Birthday Cake Decorations
While the icing is soft on the little
cone's birthday cake, 'press into the
:side a procession of animal crackers.
'The creamy color of the crackers
shows up against the pink, white or
chocolate icing. When cutting the
-cake, give each child an animal. Also,
instead of candles, try using sticks of

Prepare Car Now
For Cold Months
With winter winds not so very far
.away, motorists will •prevent trouble
:and expense later if they prepare now
for cold weather driving, the Ameri-
can Atttonuobile Association warns in
a bulletin issued recently.
The most important step in get-
ting the car ready for winter is a
-thorough 'overhauling, cleaning and
-tightening of . the cooling system be-
fore the anti -freeze solution is put
in. It's a great niistake, automobile
.engineers point out, merely to flush
-the cooling system and put in anti-
freeze without giving the system a
•itli'oro'ugh overhauling.
There are many good anti -freeze
solutions on the market from which
the motorist can choose. However,
a safe guide in selecting this import-
ant protection eor the motor is set
forth by the bureau of standards in
nine points constituting the perfect
anti -freeze. They are: Whatever
compound is used should give com-
plete protection; it should not boil
'off; it must not do any damage to
the cooling system; it should not
affect the paint or varnish of the
car; it should be odorless; it 'should
be non -inflammable; it should not
become viscous at low temperatures
nor decompose at high temperatures;
it should never deteriorate.
Men Who Advocated
Welland Ship Canal
The arrival in Toronto recently of
large upper lake passenger and
freight steamers, by reason of the
completion of the Welland Ship Can-
al, emphasize the importance of that
great engineering enterprise to Can-
adian, commerce. It does more than
that, for it brings to the fore again
the advantages that would accrue
from the deepening of the St. Lawr-
ence route, including its series of can-
als, furnishing an adequate, waterway
to the sea. 4 The improved navigation
thus provided also recalls to those
who have watched the progress made
through the years in the construction
of the Welland waterway, the excel-
lent work done by a handful of men
residing in towns situated along the
Niagara frontier, in laying upon the
public mind, and upon the govern-
ment of the day, the fact that the
Welland Canal then in use, was no
longer adequate to meet the demands
of shipping interests, and that the
need was urgent for the building of a
new and larger waterway between
Lake Erie and Lake Ontario.
Among the pioneers in the move-
ment, if so they may be called, were
the late Thomas Gonion, of Thorold,
the late. S. W. Secord, of St. Cath-
arines, and D. W. Carter, of Port Col-
borne, whb, with the active co-opera-
tion of a few others, lost no available
opportunity to promote the cause
they had so much at heart. Enlist-
ing the assistance of Boards of Trade,
'Municipal Councils, and any group of
responsible' citizens that could bring
,any influence to bear, they continued
their work in season and out of sea-
son. Federal and provincial election
campaigns were -always occasions for
special effort. From the public plat-
forms and through the press they
pressed for the realization of their
objective, until finally they heard from
Ottawa that the Government of the
day had decided that the Welland
Ship Canal should be undertaken.
Meanwhile, two of its' most energetic
proponents, Messrs. Secord and Con -

TODAY'S the day of outddor life!
Men and women retain their
youth — their joy in a healthful,
vigorous body.
A daily enemy of health is
.constipation. Intestinal sluggish -
mess often leads to headaches,
lbacicaches, lack of pep, prema-
xure aging, loss of goo4 looks.
. It is unwise to fight constipa-
lion with habit-forming pills and
.,,.drugs. They often do more harm
than good.
The wise and healthful way is
Ito correct the 'diet. Your system
needs "bulk" and Vitamin B in
'generous quantities to keep it.
healthfully regular.
Kellogg's ALr.-Baer, a delicious
ready-to:eat cereal, gives you both
of these things. It furnishes
"bulk," which gently, exercises
the itttesthies. And 'Vitamin B,
which toneit theta: cup.
In additiion,Keilogg's ALL.BnAN
contains iron, which helps build
rich, red blood!
Start now to eat Kellogg's
ALL -BRAN regularly either as
a cereal or in cooked foods. Two
tablespoonfuls daily are usually
sufficient to prevent and' to re-
Iieve most cases of constipation.
(See your doctor, however, if you
suffer from intestinal trouble not,

Ion, had .passed from the scene of
action. And, by the way, Mr. Secord
came of the historic Niagara penin-
sula family which gave to Canada the
heroine, Laura Secord. He was direct-
ly related to the late Thomas R.
Secord, once Deputy Superintendent
of the Welland Canal, resident at
Port Colborne.
It can be imagined quite readily
that no 'one" man was quite so keenly
interested in the opening . of naviga-
tion between Lakes Erie and Ontario
in 1931 as D. W. Carter of Port Col-
borne. Despite his somewhat ad-
vanced years he had first advocated
with great ability the building of
.'the canal; then he had watched with
interest the construction proceed step
by step, until eventually it was com-
pleted. Then came the long hoped-
for event, the formal opening of navi-
gation, which was carried out with-
out ceremony. Sufficient was it to
quietly rejoice that Canada had pro-
'vided a way by which larges ships
that ply on the Upper Lakes might
reach Lake Ontario. McCarter has
all his life been 'identified with
marine enterprises. Tradition has it
that he probably inherited his inter-
est in water transportation, as hi�-
father, the late Charles H, Carter, w s
for many years harbor master at Port
Colborne, and had, prior to assum-
ing that office, always been identified
with lake and canal shipping.
•
To Charles/ }P. Carter and. his
brothers, William and L. G., who
were engaged in mercantile pursuits
in the village of Port Colborne,
their home town owes a, great deal
in a business and educational way.
The three Carter brothers, t h e
Steeles, the' Armstrongs, the Mat-
thews, the Gibbons and the Green-
woods and a few others gave neces-
sary leadership to all worthy enter-
prises in the early days of the then
struggling Lake Erie village. To
them Port Colborne' owes the founda-
tion of her mercantile and transpor-
tation enterprises, and as well her
schools and churches, for they ever
took a deep interest in educational and
religious affairs'. These pioneers have
passed on, and in some cases the sec-
ond] generation has followed them to
their long home. One of the very few
survivors of the second generation of
these pioneers is D. W. Carter. He
hal seen at least two canals con-
etructed through thg heart of Port
Colborne, dividing its main business
thoroughfare, and had much to do
With the operation of the waterway
which each of these in its 'turn re-
placed. His also was the privilege of
witnessing the development of his na-
tive .town industrially by the estab-
lishment, there of large industries,
such as the Maple Leaf Mills, the In-
ternational Niekel and, the cement
plants. He has also watched park
areas give way to industry and the

Erie of many important families from
the southern States.
With his brother, the late Capt. C.
Sperry Carter, D. W. Carter was
long associated in the operation of.
tugs and vessels, and in the conduct
of a lucrative wrecking business. He
also for many years was the domin-
ant figure in the Tug Association,
which corftributed largely to the pros-
perity of the owners of tugs used in
canaling, who accepted the direc •
tion of the association. The present
prosperity of Port Colborne, and its
business, educational and church life,
bears •the impress of a few personali-
ties, of whom none has been a great-
er factor than D. W. Carter, who still
despite the fact .that he some time
ago passed man's allotted span, de-
votes himself energetically to Port
Colborne's weal. He should feel es-
pecial pride in the work he did in pro-
moting the "Welland Ship Canal.
Making Cookies the
Modern Way
Several days ago I was treated to
a real spectacle in cookie' making, for
I had an opportunity to see all the
operations of commercial cookie manu-
facture. It was fascinating to watch
each step from the composition of the
dough to the final packing and boxing
of the cookies for shipping. If, per-
chance, you really can't find the time
to indulge your taste in home made
baked sweets, you will find wholesome
attractive substitutes in the stores.
There again you will have to consult
the family budget and reckon with
the cost, making allowance for the
value of your own time, far store
cookies are not ebeap.
In .the factory I visited all the
bakers( are men, including those who
nTake the dough, roll it, feed it to
the cutting machines, bake it, and re-
move it from the oven.
One huge machine rolls the dough
to the desired thickness; cuts the
dough into,- cookies and stamps each
cookie with its special design; sepa-
rates the scraps from the cookie and
carries the scraps back to the begin-
ning to be used over again; shifts
the cookie on the sheets and con-
veys them to the large travelling ov-
ens.-
Each cookie sheet accommodates
approximately 300 medium sized cook-
ies. The travelling oven accepts four
sheets at a time, and the cookies, are
baked at a high, temperature as they
travel the length of the oven on con-
veyors. The ovens Maintain an av-
erage heat of '476 degrees, depending,
of course, on the cookie being baked.
They are about sixty feet Llong, and
the cookies travel the Iengti • of them
in four or •live minutes,' emerging a'
finished product ready for packing.
Two men stand at the oven exits
over two iron rails which con-ct to
remove the sheets. These' carry the
cookies to another floor where they
are slid off the tins and made ready
for shipment.
Tuning Out Noise
in the Radio Set
Because of the extreme sensitivity
of superheterodynes, a higher noise
level than• .that noticed when using
less sensitive receivers will naturally
be observed in any given location. But
because of this same high sensitivity
it is also possible to receive very
weak signals, so that one character-
istic offsets the other. If a receiver
is believed to he excessively noisy
the siniplest method of isolating the
trouble is to remove the antenna con-
nection and determine whether or not
there is a diminution in the noise lev-
el; if not, the noise probably is com-
ing in aver the power line oil is be-
ing picked up,from the receiver coils
which may not all be individually
shielded. Regeneration in the inter-
mediate stations/is also a source of
noise.
Where the noise conies in •over the
power lines a noise filter may some-
times eliminate this trouble. If the
interference is still observed with the
antenna disconnected it is evident
that the signal is being picked
up by the coils of the set itself•
all electrical apparatus such as fans,
violet ray machines, etc., in the room
or in 'adjacent rooms should he care-
fully examined to make sure that they
have no dirty sparking brushes, loose
connections, or contacts. Lamps
should be tightly screwed into their
sockets if near the set to further re-
duce noise.
It is also important that a good
ground be connected to a , super-
heterodyne receiver. A good ground
therefore, should be used to keep
the noise level -of a super down.
