She is free for war work or anything else. Yes, it's easy and it's economical. Just make sure your meals are "nutri- tion -checked" and the family is sure to feel right because the food will be cooked right. Here's the correct use of the switches for the well -cooker: (1) "High" for browning meats, bring- ing foods to the steaming point and baking, (2) "Medium" for sterilizing, and (3) ,"Low for maintaining the steaming point after steam appears at vent,for,eoup cookery, for cooking dried vegetables and fruits.

When the war started, 'developed capacity of water- power was 8,500;000 horsepower. On January 1, 1943, developed capacity. had increased to 9,225,833 h.p, Dur- ing -1943 another 1,000,Q00 h.p. will be in production. In this rapid wattling expansion industrial power in Canada, the nam that overshadows all others is Shi shaw. it one looks at a tourist en of Quebec, he will see the' Sbipsha River, a tributary of the mighty Sa uenay, flowing from the north to jo the larger • river. just above Arvid Que.

At the rate•of one .new etnit month . until late'"in 1943, the statio will add to its. bower output. Te units at 85,000 h.p. and two.' at 55,00 h.p, will make 960,000 hp. That the ultimate "capacity of Shipshaw, a reported by department of mines en resources on - January 1: The co ,pan's figure is 1,020;000 h.p. .The story of Shipshaw Is one o the industrial miracles of moder times, overshadowing anything in th record of industrial ;mobilization this war, which is strewn with mir acles. Men who built Shipsbaw hav been restive under restrictions to pre ven them telling the public of thi egendary feat of. construction. Al eady a controversy exists over -claim hat it will be tithe world's larges power station. The lid of censorshi has never been too tight, for thou ands of men, from ,laborers wit pick and shovel to skilled engineers ave worked on it. To hide this sto as been like trying to hide Niagar Falls, or pretend the Rocky "Moue airs are a mirage. But to hide th roduction capacity of the great alum num industry Shipshaw serves,i wartime common sense. Shipshaw i o place for the casual tourist an ttmust remain one of Canada's mos losely-guarded localities. Aluminum is the magic word of the aguenay region, which was remote nd unknown except: to tourists on he Saguenay River only 20 years ago, e Maligne pw oer dam was the first reat project on the Saguenay. The eginnings of the present Shipshaw roject lie aback' in 1.930, when the hute a Caron dam was built. The level of the Chute a Caton dam sale that it could not utilize, the ull flow from' the deep reservoir it rested. The main features of- t hips•haw project consist of contrd1 f the mouth of the Shipshaw River, onstruetion of a giant power station• ere, and theblasting out of a great anal to tap the Chute a Caron res- voir for the Shipshaw station. This anal utilizes the full head of water vailable from the reservoir.

Ultimate- ly Boulder Dam ;will have 1,850,000 h.p. Boulder Dam is 726.4 feet high above bedrock. It is a great gate shutting off Boulder Canyon, .It cre- ates a lake 115 miles long. Besides power, it serves for irrigation, flood control, silt control,and the improve- ment of navigation. , Shipshaw is a miracle of a different color. • .Its function is strictly hydro power. The power development of Shipshaw and Chute a Caron exceeds Boulder Dam, both depending on the. same head of water. Boulder Dam cost $10,000,000, and Shipshaw alone exceeds that figure.' Commandos a.trik.e at Dawn When Lieut. -General Kenneth Stu-' art, D,S.O., Chief of the Canadian General Staff„ pledged the co-opera- tion of the Canadian Army in making "The Commandos Strike At Dawn," lie was making no idle promise. The fulfillment of this promise has result ed in making the• picture one of the most realistic films' of..the war. So complete was the Army co-op- 0'11'10n—end the help of the Canadian Navy and R.C.A.F. as well—that hard bitten Hollywood prop men were am- azed. Heavy field pieces with ammun- tion limbers materialized • at otit-of- the-way locations whilemost good burghers were still at breakfast. Director' John Farrow had only to list his requirements arid 'troops; ful- ly -equipped for battle, would be at their allotted stations before the in- tricate parapjternalia of 'a movie company arrived at the location. "You folks certainly don't hold back when you promise anything," remark- ed Mike Gordon, genius of the prop deper•tment of the Lestern Cowan Productions. "I've .seen dozens of pictures made 'but this tops every- thing for whole -hearted co-operation." Of course it wasn't all "beer and skiitles." Wartime priorities made problems that would not exist in Hol- lywood and called for all sorts of in- genuity on the, part of carpenters, prep men painters and set, dressers. ,One tif•the biggest "sets" ever film"- ed lm=ed outside the Major studios was the beautiful wedding scene in "The 'Com- mandos Strike At Dawn" -the inter- ior of a Norwegian village inn. The set was 90 feet in length and it re- quired almost seven minutes of con- tinuous shooting to film. it. Furniture of the rooms in the inn was authentic and to secure this Carl, Jacobs and Mike Gordon .combed the antique shops of Victoria and borrow- ed frpm Norwegian families.. Pots and pans in .the huge kitchen were of gleaming .popper and ether utensils were of Norwegian origin. It is a masterpiece of ingenuity—a tribute to modern filmdom.

Not ee ;xllcky are the children of Annie, (ev- er there the ibrntal blood -thirsty eu- emy is right there in front of them. The Nazis have. bhrned many of tie children's homes and have killed their parents. The Germans have bombed Russian children in ,hospitals, on the streets, on playgrounds; they have burned their schools and books and destroyed whatever they could lay • their hands on. Yes, the children of Russia know all the horrors of war. They have seen it at, its worst, in a way that everyone hopes that Canadian .. children will never see. There are homeless Russian ,children living in the cold, dark _forests, not knowing what is going to happen to them next. So many of them., have lost their parents, and do not know if they willever see them alive. Many have had their hands and feet frozen as they fled from the enemy and many, have had their limbs cut off because they were so badly frozen. But ' the children of Russia are brave and patriotic„'as Canadians 'are. Though there is not enough food, nor enough clothing, nor enough warmth in •their shelters or 'schools— coal must go to the munitions plants —the children do not complain. They see the older • people 'around them working' . hard, ' sacrificing everything to win the war. And the children do this also . . win the war! That's the Russian children's slogan, and it is not an •entity slogan. All over the vast Russian land, the children have organized themselves' into the volun- tary associations called "Pioneers” and "Timurites." The. Pioneers are the %Younger children and the Timur- ites are special war workers, some- thing like., the "Junior Commandos" led by Orphan Annie. The Timurites perform various special tasks. They collect wood for the schools, wash floors in schools and hospitals, mind children, wash dishes andrun errands for mothers who 'go to work, read to wounded soldiers in hospitals and 'Write letters for them, collect salvage, help the farmers and so on. Oh, there's lots for children to do when, a country is at war like Russia;. Some Timurites are at the front, too.. Like Zoya Vladimirova, who carried 116 wounded men off the battlefields, amid a hail of bullets. And three of them are enshrined in children's hearts as everlasting heroes. These • are Zoya, age -19; Liza, age 17, and Alex, age 16, all 'of whom served their people as guerilla fighters, and were tortured and hanged by the Germans. The struggles and suffering of the Russian children are ,helping to keep the childen of Canada safe: This is umething to remember as we face this year of 1943. Remember that in 1942 Russian children died of hunger, cold and German brutalities, while battling aur .common foe.
