"A cynic once said, 'Marriage .is 'a
problem in mathematics, because you
add to your responsibility, subtract
your freedom, multiply your cares,
and divide your income.' But we be-

that your marriage may mean a real

and happiness may far outnumber
the cares and sorrows.

Canadians Great
Telephone Users
Canada has more than five times as
many telephones for every 100 people
as the Axis powers, There are more
telephones in the Dominion to serve
eleven million people than the entire
Japanese Empire has for its' teeming
millions.
These comparisons come from a
survey of the latest available world
telephone statistics recently complet-
ed by the American Telephone - and
Telegraph 'Company. The three -Axis
towers and their pre-war ,dominions,
this survey shows, average only 2.34
telephones,. whereas on January 1st,
1941, this country had 12.78' tele-
phones for every 100 people. There
is an average of two telephones per
100 population in the world.
Using estimates in the case of those
countries for which no recent official
data are available due to the war, a
world total of 44,190,000 telephones,
is indicated as of January 1, 1941. At
the present time 't is likely that over
46 million telephones are in service,
with well over one-half of the world's
telephones being on this continentand
about one-third in Europe.
Telephones operated • by private
companies account for ,more than 60
per cent of the world's total. Close
to 58 per` cent of all the telephones
in the world are now operated from
automatic central offices, including
some 767,000 dial telephones in Can-
ada. Canada 'had a total of. 1,461;000'
telephones on January 1, 1941.
Only three countries have more
telephones for every 100 of the popu-
lation than Canada; the United States
16.56, Sweden 14.26, and New Zea-
land 13.96 top Canada's 12"78 tele-
phones. -

To Paper Salvage
National Salvage Headgil rters an -
nounces that for the present the need
for old newspaper has been met, and
the public is asked to defer further
collection until supply and demand
call for it. , -
Wrapping paper and paper bags
are still wanted. Everyone is urged
not to let up on salvage of 'the
other essential war materials — fats,
bones, scrap rubber, scrap metal,
and steel, rags, and bottles.
Housewives Urged
Avoid Butter Waste,
Creamery butter production is down
and to stimulate production the War-
time Prices and Trade Board has
granted a producer's' subsidy .of six
cents a pound on butterfat used in.
the manufacture of creamery butter.
It is pointed out that until butter
production is built up 'Canadians
should make every effort not to
waste butter. Housewives are re-
-minded that in cooking, other fats
can fregriently be substituted with
equally good results.
Budget Vegetables
For Winter Storage
Budgeting of the fruit and .vege-
tables
ege-tables you are planning to can and
store in your basement for winter
use is a practicalmethod of insuring
that there will be enough of these
and in sufficient variety to allow for
two servings, of ;vegetiables besides
potatoes and two of truit in the daily
diet.
One canned vegetable a day and
another stored will give the two serv-
ings per' person daily required. By
thinking ahead in this way, ^ the jars
will not be filled with one product to
the exclusion of. others. -
In the same manner as a merchant
plans to fill his shelves to meet the
fall and .Winter " demand, the home-
maker should plan -to fill her shelves
according to the needs of her family.
Arrange now to put 'your basement
in as good shape as possible for stor-
ing of winter apples and vegetables.'
Horse Has New Job
As Result of War
The horse has a new war job! Not
only is he; to return to his foie of
pulling wagons and supplying trans-
portation to people no longer able to
drive their cars, but he is also to
supply Canada with brushes.
War in the Pacific has thrown this
new; duty upon the horse. Formerly
pigs' bristles imported from China
and 'Siberia supplied this continent
with the right kind of bristles for its
freest quality of brushes and brooms.

Sugar For Harvest Crews
AVAILABLE ON "HONOR SYSTEM"
A11 over Canada, farm women are
asking, "What about sugar for' extra
men employed during harvest?"
The. latest sugar order from War-
eme Prices and Trade Board deals
with this very question, Canadian
farm women have been so ce-opera-
tive in remaining strictly within them
sugar ration that the "honor system"
is to be used to ensure them suffici-
ent sugar to feed. threshing and silo -
filling gangs, fruit pickers or other
harvest groups.
In order to .obtain.ethis_extra sugar
allowance, the housewife must secure
from her merchant a voucher (sirtrilar
to that used whet buying sugar rot
canning) to be signed by herself or
the person making the purchase. On
the line stating the type of institu-
tion or, business the applicant should
write the number of workers and the
number of days present on her farm,
for example, "19 harvest workers; 2
days."
The housewife is expected to com-
pute accurately the amount of extra
sugar required by these men, over
and above her family's weekly quota.
This sugar purchasing is strictly on
the "ronor system," and farm women
are urged to remember that reduced
sugar consumption is still essential.
"Absent from parade—anything to
say?" asked the commanding officer
of a Cockney private.
'"Yes sir. One o' my mules kicked
the quartermaster, an' I 'ad ter fix it,
sir."
"Fix it?"
"Yessir, the mule's 'off, sir."
