Take a Tip:
1. The wires of a piano can be kept
free from dampness and rust by tack-
ing a small bag of unstacked lime in-
side the piano, just under the cover,
This will absorb all moisture.
2. When castors on furniture fall
out too easily, remove them, pour
melted wax into holes and insert cas-
tors before wax hardens. After wax
Sets, the castors will not fallout.
3. Glycerine is better than oil fo:•
lubricating egg -beaters, meat -cutters
and juice -extractors. It is tasteless
and harmless.
4. To safeguard against the danger
of spontaneous combustion and- re-
sulting fire in the home, keep ell oiled
rags used for cleaning 'and darting in
capped:glees jars or tight -fitting con-
tainers.

THINS BACK to the old days —= when Canada
was young.
Think• of the high courage, the indomitable will of
those pioneer women.. :Within the stockade or in-

side of -their men for the 'safeguarding of everything

Grimly quenching their tears, mothers say e ld

In thousands of Canadian homes, women are revising

Communications
It is difficult to appraise the ,influ-
ence of improvements in communica-
tions upon the living conditions of a
community, but undoubtedly this is a .
matter of 'first-class Importance, The
Scottish engineer Thomas Telford,
famous for his 'roads in the Highlands
of Scotland, was strongly of that opin-
ion. Referring to his new Highland
roads built soon after 1880, 'he wrote:
"I consider these improvements ,,
among the greatest- blessings ever
conferred on any country' . . - It
bas been the means of advancing the
country at least a century." The ben-
efits contributed by roads• and canal%
in •that day, apart firmer the resultant
appreciation in the land values, were
probably due most to greater ease .
with which produce and merchandise '
could be moved. Today_ it has also
become important tit the population
itself may have greater mobility, par-
ticularly within metropolitan areas; •

the earliest significant improvement
was in the realm of steam, first the
steam' paddle;wheeler on' fhe Princi-
pal water 'routes, and later the steam

1809 but it did not entirely supersede

communication- .
'With respect to roads, quantity ra-
tper than quality was the slogan of
the nineteenth century. Altheaga
Macadam appeared in Canada shortly .
after widespread adoption in England,
its use was limited largely to the
principal streets of cities. Yonge
Street in, Toronto and a short stretch
between Kingston • and Napanee were
among the few macadamized stretch
es of Upper Canada in 1840. Halifax
streets Were, paved with macadam,
however, k" sore' 1829. Asphalt pre
n"peared oonsiderably later
since it was not used in London, Eng '
land, until 1869. Asphalt lanes were
built fdr bicycles along the curbs of
New York's main thoroughfares ins
the last quarter of the nineteenth cen-
tury but apparently hard surfaces
were by no means general, even itlf
the larger cities during this period.
It was the coming of the- automobild
about 1900 :Which made 'hard-surfadeda
roads of growing importance. Hard -
surfaced {highways 'ln`'Canada in 1936
aggregated approximately 10,000 nailer
in addition to the streets Of large
towns anti cities built mainly dr
asphalt and concrete, There were al-
so 88,000 miles of gravel roads and
311,000 miles of earth roads. The

ly important factor In suburban de-

telephones ire use In Canada rose
from 4,400 in 1853 to approximately
1,200,000 in 1936. Badto'a acceptance
was even more rapid; considered a
novelty years atter the Great War, im-
proveiiient in 'broadcasting and recen-
tiolt .'equiljment caused radio sales to
increase by leaps and bounds. In

ing sets in Canada, 'or almost one set
for every two bottles..
