This time a faint smile did I really
see,
While a responsive look came to
lila eye.
Aidvancing towards him, I ventured
thus to ask,
"May I join you, as you go your

A silent nod was hie assent,
While, as he turned aside, a tear
coursed down his cheek. -
Brushing it aside, In broken: voice,
Ile then began a most dolorous
dale:
"1 onoe was young like you,

Oft did we plan retiring .near the'

Thus earn some recompense for
yeara of toil.
"Ah! Wishful thought; what van-

Scarce had we settled in our cosy
home
Than sickness, with a heavy hand,
became our lot;
Jenny, -plague-stricken, was the
first to go,
The mother followed, eager to be
,bye her side,
A•nd I was left alone!

You see me now,- a human derelict,
Devoid of will to help the other

That once was mine. My friends

Henceforth, from them, all
estranged.
"I hasten to my close,
Could I but sound a warning note,
To all the noble youth of this fair
land;
To put their trust and confidence
in God, alone,
Relying on His promises and love,
I would not feel that I have lived

In the Royal Canadian Navy, 1953
was a year of development, fleet
expansion, .training and travel.
Ships of the fleet sailed many thou-
sands of miles in the fulfillment of
training and special assignments.
There was the Coronation Naval
Review, in, which six RCN ships
participated; the Far Eastern the-
atre, where three Canadian de-
stroyers continue to serve; Beer-
pise 'Mariner, massive NATO war
games in which file Canadian war-
ships

small .portion of the Royfal Cana-
dian Navy's activities during the
year.

CANDY
Hello Homemakers! There are
more tasters than we need around
the kitchen these cold days. They
want "some" no matter what it is!
When we suggested that Nancy say
please, we were told: "My arm is
longer than my tongue." To stir
up ,interest in a :project for chil-
dren, mention candy. It's magic.
So here is a helpful column for
teen-agers.
Take a Tip
1. Adequate utensils for candy
making are a deep saucepan, wood-
en spoon, measuring cups and a
candy thermometer.
2. If the recipe does not state th
kind of sugar, always use -fine gran-
ulated.
3. To test for syrup stages with-
out a "thermometer:
(a) Soft Ball Stage—When about
14 teaspoon of the syrup is drop=
ped into a cup containing ice cold
water, a soft ball is formed.
(tb) •medium Bali gtage — 'When
about .3( teaspoon is dropped into
a cup containing a little cold ,wa-
ter, a firm ball is formed —try
pinching it.
(c) Hard Ball Stage --When sy-
rup is dropped, long 'threads
(about three inches) hang from
edge of spoon.
4. Do not let sugar mixture boil
until sugar has dissolved in the
combined ingredients by stirring
overlow heat.
5. Fondant candies -should be
boiled without stirring. To prevent
crystals from forming, dip wooden
spoon in hot water, then scrape
sides of saucepan.
6 Fudge mixtures should be set
aside to cool as (soon as soft ball
stage is reached. (Do not. chill
suddenly). When, lukewarm, beat
until mixture loses its gloss, then
pour into a greased pan and spread
witch a hot knife.

was we became obsessed with New,
Year's and read with growing en-
thusiasvr about William the Con-
querer. •
William roaredashore in Eng-
land
n -land ini1066 and,'having checked
that King Harold was safe with an
arrows in his eye, set about ar-
rangements for this Coronation.,
This lively- event was staged- at'
Westminster where, one of his line
was crowned in 1953. William was
the sort 0! maq who would bid time
stand still in its .flight and expect
something to happen. • His corona-
tion was on December 25, 1066,
which the Anglo-Saxons observed
as New Year's Day, being in their
usual state of -contrariness with
the rest of Christendom which pre-
ferred March 25. William, in his
magnificence .said that New Year's
Day thenceforth should be Janu-
ary 1. -
William might change 'a date but
he could not change the English in
their love of toeing egin the gov-
ernment. His subjects quickly de-
cided that they preferred New
Fear's Day on March 25 after' all
and so.it was observed until 1752
when England adopted the Gregor-
ian calendar almost 200 Years af-
ter most of the other Christian na-
tions.
Now we were on the slippery
slope and slithered. into Roman
revels which marked the coming of
the New Year with sacrifices, gifts,
visits. masquerades, music and,
gargantuan feasting. This seemed
to set the tone of the day and ,We
put the reference books back where
they belonged, gave them. a part-
ing pat, assured them they would
be needed again in 1954 and pat-
tered off home feeling that our

SANTA CLAUS RE -LOCATES
Santa Claus must be an anti-

longer is the .storied North Pole
the -hub of his activities, for 364
days per, year. He's moved .to a
more accessible location where he
can the visited all year round. Rum-
our has'it that the North Pole was
too close to the Iron Curtain for
comfort, so Santa Claus re -located.
