'He said that the blind learned' how • to do everything by .: touch, and that they 'competed .in 'swats, with teams who have .eyesight and • have come back with a Cup. Wonderful, isn't it, that something like this can be done for unfortunate people, Mr. Spark'h speech itself was one of the finest I've ever heard. •The fact that he didn't start off with the same old. routine, saying that he was, glad to be there, was the first step in making it an interesting speech, because he said he wasn't glad to be there, be- cause it meant he had -to. get up early and he didn't like that. All through his speech he ,came out with funny stories,' and' 4 each • sentence sending out cheerfulness and ambition. There was one ' expression I •remembered mostly, that one doesn't realize- the importance" of the five senses until he has Test one of them permanently. Isn't it the truth? • A'Wiest in 'the Latin Class Just' like the tales of Mighty Mouse, when the little mice are 'in trouble and they need help, they just call on their great hero. Whether the' Fifth Form Latin students were in trouble or not, Or whether they consider, a '4 -year-old •boy their hero, I don't know, but one period when the students were deep in. thought, "Andy" came bursting into the room, a smile on his. face .which extended from one hearing to".the' other: His cute little manner and the fact that the teacher took• him out by the hand, sent the room into hysterics. It wasn't the usual method of treating a. guest, but I guess until you're older, you're not welcome in • an Upper -Sellout Latin Blass. •Miracle •' The tyro old ladies who climbed onl the, bus ,were fresh from the country. Wanting , to see the sights, they de- cided. to it on the upper deck of the' bus. They paid their fares and. ,went gingerly up, the narr'o'w stairs. Sud- denly theycame clattering 'down., eyes wide -with undisguised fright: The conduetar inquired: "What's the mat- ter—no -seats?" • "No seats?" screamed one of the women: "plenty of seats, but 'it's too dangerous up there.

At first, the school. thought a class was off on another wild chemistry spree, but that,wasn't it, because Mr. Morrison ' Was still alive! Then they thought maybe some young First Former was lost in the vastness (ha, ha) • of our school and was already starting to decompose. But no. neither one was right.

Poultry Prices All sales of turkeys in groups of more than two Cannot be made at higher than the maximum wholesale Price. according to W. Harold McPhil- lips, prices and supply' .representative for the Western Ontario region of the Wartime Prices and Trade Board. Be- cause of this 'ruling of the Prices Board all organizations, `firms • Or church groups purchasing turkeys for gifts, raffles, and other such purposes may not pay more • than the whole- sale prices for them. Mr: McPhillips 'said he was issuing this-rtifing early in the season to avoid any _confusion and - misunder" standing in regard "to' the purchasing of turkeys -for feather parties, raffles and 'employee gifts. • ' Maximum wholesale. prices for dressed turkeys have been set by the Prices Board and ,vary according, to the grade of the turkey' and the zone. Unlike last,year, these .maximum pric-, es will' prevail throughout the dear. In Western , Ontario wholesale prices are as follows fdr loose packs ed turkeys: Special .grade, young hens and, young toms, 41%c per„ lb.; A grade young hens and young toms, 40y4c• per lb.; •B grade, ,381/40 per Ib.; C. grade,' 351/4 per lb. Old hens are 3c less per 'pound and old toms, 4c less, per pound for corresponding grades. In the case_of ,boxed' packed turkeys the price would be %c, per -pound more for all grades, Tenant Regulations Tenants of housing accommodation are still "frozen” according to W. Har- old. McPhillips, prices and supply re- presentative of the Western Ontario region of the Wartime Prices' and Trade. Board, Tetlants cannot he evicted for any 'reason if, they pay their rent promptly . and are in the generally accepted term "well behav- ed." - Misunderstanding regarding these regulations has arises because of the slight change in the regulations re-. 'specting ,shared accommodation, Mr. •McPhillips explained. Formerly a ten- ant, could not be. asked to vacate shared accodimod,ation during the win- ter months, but now under Board Or- der 649, 'tenants .01 ,shared, accommo- dation can be asked to vacate by the landlord giving six months' notice! which may requite the tenant to va- cate at any time during the year. Shared accommodatioh is accom- modation where rooms are a part of the house of the landlord' or the land- lord's agent, and where -a kitchen, bathroom or a siinilar type of.'facility is shared with the landlord. This is the only type of accommodation where tenants may be asked to va- cato during the winter months. 1 • ECO Dello, 1; 1•omkers?;..

'This is in complete contrast to the days when the - ros:pshaded lamp with the 'fringe cast only a small circ cle of poor light, but -was considered very elegant. Electricity• helps you work -ot' relax with 'ease if the light •is adapted to your work. Bare bulbs, even inside frosted ones; are glaring and should not be used if they come within your field of vision. A 200 --'pats light is placed four feet from your tedious work, ;whereas a 200 -watt central lighting fixture is ample .for general.. kitchen routine. One reason: why •homeuiakes prefer white or,ivory paint fortheir kitchens is• that these colors do not absorb light. It is especially 'important to stress .keeping the 'kitchen lighting fixtures clean as' •they become greasy and dusty quickly. Darkened bulbs should be discarded—.they give poor light and ,may burn„ out at an inop- portune time. When you buy a sup- ply . of new Ones, purchase long -lite bulbs of the correct voltage. The local, Hydro matt should be consulted about the kind to buy. Now that more people are»,studying and reading fine print every night, you really must consider adequate light.

Each should be planned and revised. Equipment is man -designed, but woman -used. The best way to decide whether your kit- •chen is usable is ,to make a tine -and motion study' of the jobs you do. How can your kitciven be improved? 1. WORK SPACE: Although the sink, 'refrigerator and range may be relocated for greater convenience in the approved plan.the sink is the cen- ter with. the. range near the dining - room door. There should be work sur- face on one aide of the ranee,. on -both sides of the sink and at the opening of the refrigerator. . • If the 'counter is too wide --'then there.. i ill be difficulty reaching 'for overhead cupboards. Shallower clip- board's are accessible, ,places to stare things, while- additional storage is provided under the couuters. A cab- inet under the sink provides space for storing cleaning equipment and a hiding place. for the ,garbag,e can. If there are not vent; on this .door, you, should put a screen on it to prevent dislscloths• or mopclotirs from going sour. Vegetable bins should have op- en grill at the front and a small space at the back for ventilation. Sliding doors may be expensive, but they are worth the money com- pared. to the • head -bumps 'of open doors in a -small kitchen. An over- head place next to the refrie'eratoe should be reserved for food storage. One side for cereals, crackers, can- ned goods, syrups, etc.'°'the other for cooking ingredients and spices, seas- onings, etc. And •directly under this' section available working surface which covers the• baking utensils, • „ 2.
