Then again on Monday one of the
most successful race meets ever to be
held in the town, was staged. There
were five different races and the en-
tries in all were fairly large, and the
races were keenly contested. Of much
interest to a lot of race fans was the
fine showing in the three-year-old
pacers and three-year-old trotters.
The heats in trotting class were run in
2.121.4, 2.15 and 2,17,1/. The pacing
colts did almost as well, Baroness 1.ee,
owned by the Owen Staples, Tillson-
burg, won the race with two firsts and
a second. Unko Bars, owned by Gor-
don Knight, Blenheim, won the three-
year-old pacing event. Dillon Mac,
owned 'by Dr. Meldrum, of Norwich,
took the Free -For -All Event, winning
all three heats. The time was remark-
ably fast -2A6, 2.06 and 2.08. Bert
Patch,. owned by 31. n, Wilson, Mona
Mills, won the 2.20 trot or pace with
three firsts, and in the 2.26 class, Mtss
Admiral Grattan took two firsts and a
second to win the race. A fine crowd
was in attendance and the races were
run ort in record time being over by
about 6.30. This considering that they
did not get under way until nearly three
o'clock, clue to the condition of the
track, must have nearly set a record
for fast work. The speediness of the
event was largely dee to the starter,
A. E. (Doc.) Miller, East Aurora, N. Y.,
who ,kept tnings well in hand at all
times, and got the horses away with-
out too much scoring.

Mind clinics In factories and in

plants in England,

their side of the system. is worked.

job and was getting on their nerves.
"They would recommend a staff

Chief Oats Producers
The Soviet Union and the Unit-

over one-half of the world area
under oats, Canada and the Unit-

countries has fallen in recent
years, the Canadian crop harvest
for 1937 (268,412,000 bushels)
being the smallest estimate since

First, study the example game. If you
will now refer to the table of points, you
will find tho method of scoring which in
employed,
You will note that certain points aro allowed
for each combination of five cards which can
ho formed with the twenty-flvo cards appear-
ing In this example game.
Tho object is to rearrange there cards In five
horizontal rows In such a way as to attain as
high a score as you can based on the table of
points.
While the cards do not appear In rod and
black, you should have no doubt as to the
sults. All you require to play tho game Is a
knowledge of the table of points and a litho
foresight in rearranging the cards. Referring
back to the example game, you will note that
the scorn is 1320, Now to bettor the score,
for example, you could move the jack of clubs
from the top row to tho third row for four
jacks, giving you a scorn of 440 for thin row.
Now take tho six of clubs from the fourth
row and place it in the top row, and you have
a run of ail clubs to the ton. You lose five
points in this row by taking away the jack,
but you gain 175 points In the third row for
a total of 1490, a nice increase over 1520.
Simple, Isn't it?
NOW SEE HOW MUCH
BETTER YOU CAN DO.

What Science
* Is Doing
Vitamins Aid Memory
A connection between good
memory and an adequate supply
of vitamins is demonstrated in ex-
periments carried on at the Uni-
versity of Colorado by Dr. Chas.
F. Poe, professor of chemiatry,
and Dr. Karl P. Muenzingcr, as-
sociate professor of psychology.
Their experiments were male
on rats, using three groups, one
group kept on a normal diet, ore
kept on a diet deficient in vitamin
G and one deficient in the vitamin
B complex.
• * *
Map of Heredity
The first neap of heredity is un-
der construction at the California
Institute of Technology, Pasadena,
Calif, .It already shows the loca-
tion of the chemical determiners
of 500 physical characteristics
ranging from eye colors to the
nur.tber of joints in the feet of the
tiny fly that is being intensively
studied.
The map looks like a set of
tape -lines on which the cross -
marks are crowded so closely that
they nearly touch. This map is a
drawn -to -scale copy of real tape -
lines which nature lays in every
germ cell to govern and limit the
animal (or .man) which that cell
shall become by growth.

New Treatment for Meningitis
Use of sulphanilamide has
changed treatment of meningo-
coccal meningitis "from a difiicult
to a relatively simple matter,"
says Dr. Stanley Banks, writing
in the Lancet, British medical
journal.
Dr. Banks, medical superintend-
ent of a London hospital, describes
treatment of 113 acute cases of
nl^ningococcal meningitis.
Thirty-eight cases Were treated
with large doses of serum. The
fatality rete was 16 per cent.;
the method relatively difficult and
laborious.
A fatality rate of 11.8 per
cent. resulted from treatment of
69 cases, including 10 small chil-
dren, with both serum and aul-
phanilamide. recovery of aur-
\'iVOI'a was rapid,
• * *
Stratosphere Study Increased
An international assault on the
stratosphere is being staged this
summer by the weather bureaus
of the United States and many
European countries. Small cap-
tive balloons are being sent aloft
higher than any manned balloon
has reached. They carry instru-
ments of very light construction
which record temperature, humid-
ity and pressure ?lid the flight of
the balloons is followed by tele-
scopes, so that their direction and
velocity, indicating the wind di-
rection, may be charted. When it
reaches its maximum height the
hydrogen -filled balloon bursts. A
red silk parachute is released,
which carries the instruments,
their records scratched on smoked
strips of metal, safely to earth.
A reward is offered for the re-
turn of the instruments.
A comparison of the records ob-
tained in all countries is expected
to give a picture of changes tak-
ing place in the stratosphere that
may be related to changes in sur-
face air, where storms originate,

Diet And Tuberculosis
The latest advances in the treat-
ment of tuberculosis were explain-
ed by some of the most eminent
specialists of Canada and the Unit-
ed States at the one-week post-
graduate course organized by the
Mount Sinai Sanatorium, Prefon-
taine, Que.
Ar
y
BIG in size
BIG in Flavour
BIG in value
On the therapeutic side of the
problem was the new theory of
dietary treatment of tuberculosis
which is now receiving the atten-
tion of research workers in New
York, On the surgical side the
new procedure of putting air just
underneath the ribs and outside
the lung as explained. This meth -
ed aims at allowing the lung to
retract and heal.
Forty medical men from East-
ern Canada and the United States
attended the course.
Worm Outbreak
ethod of its Control
Formula for Poison Bait And
Use Outlined
During the last week there has
been a widespread outbreak of the
army worm in most counties of the
province, but more severe in some
than in others. This insect is like
an ordinary cutworm. The colour
is green to brown or nearly black,
with longitudinal stripes along the
back and sides. When full-grown
It is nearly two inches long. Most
of the damage has been done to
grasses, barley, oats and corn, Al-
falfa, sweet clover, red clover, peas,
beans, potatoes, tomatoes and most
other crops have not been attacked,
When barley or oats are attacked
the damage is caused by the leaves
and heads being eaten off,
The worms usually come from
grass, their favorite breeding place,
From this they often move in large
numbers to nearby corn or grain,
In many cases, however, they actu-
ally have bred in the grain itself,
the eggs being laid on the leaves.
Hence grain may be attacked with-
out an invasion from the surround-
ings, , Every farmer should at once

• Poison bait in most cases is Very
effective, but sometimes must be
supplemented by a trench or fur-

Formula for the Poison Bait
Bran 25 lbs.
Paris Green 1 lb.
Cheap Molasses ',4 gal.
Water enough to moisten the bait
without staking it sloppy
about 21 gals.
Mix the bran and Paris Green
dry, thoroughly, until t'fie green

the bran. This can be done most
easily on a concrete or tight board
floor by shovelling it over just as
in mixing concrete. 1)o not mix
with the hands and do not inhale
the Paris Green dust. Next level
the surface of the pile, add the
water and molasses thoroughly
mixed and shovel again It until
the
mixture is well moistened, but will
fall through the fingers like damp
sawdust. This poison bait should
be applied after 6 p.m, and should
be scattered by hand. In corn
broadcast it over the ground just
as one would broadcast grain. The
above amount should be sufficient
to cover 1% acres, but only 1 acre
in a very heavy infestation. Barley
and oats may be treated in the
same way, but if the grain is very
thick or fallen the bait must be
thrown forcibly into the crop to
reach the ground, and in such
cases even 30 lbs. per acre, or more,
may be needed. The lodged parts

from an infested field to an unin-
fested, scattering the bait for a few
yards ahead of them may be suffici-
ent, but if they are very numerous
this will have to be supplemented
by making a trench or deep fur-
row. In sandy land this can usually
be done with a plough, leaving the
straight side of the clean-cut fur-
row towards the crop to be protect-
ed. Two furrows about a yard
apart are better than a single one.
In clay land the furrow must be
deepened to a trench 12 inches or
more in depth, with the straight
wall towards the threatened crop
cut clean or even better cut under.
In both cases poisoned bait should
be thrown into the furrow or
trench, Post holes at intervals may
have to be dug in either the fur-
row or trench.

...Gardening dotes...
THE VEGETABLE GARDEN
The vegetable gardener has
much in common with the factory
manager; both like to get as much
from their production space as
possible. To do this the garden re-
sorts to two doubling up arrange-
ments called succession aid com-
panion plantings.
He knows, for instance, that
radishes take only n few weeks to
mature, thus leaving a whole row
or more of space for another
crop. In this case, a mixture of
radish and parsley seed can be
planted at the sane time, the
parsley being slower, and obliging
enough to give the radishes full
sway for the first few weeks. This
is called companion planting, as
both crops grow together, although
one is harvested before the other.
Other colllpaniolls for radishes
are cabbages or peas between the
rows. In this case two rows are
planted in a space for only one,
but as the radishes mature quick-
ly
.remains
ly and are used lu),there
only one row, with sufficient room
for cabbages or peas. Another
suggestion is parsnips or beets be-
tween rows of spinach. The spin-
ach is a cool -season, fast grower,
and is soon used up,
Succession Plantings
In the case of succession plant-
ings, the gardener waits until a
quick growing vegetable is har-
vested, aid then replants with an-
other crop, Here are a few:
Radishes followed by string
beans.
Early peas followed by turnips,
carrots or beets.
Early beans followed by late
carrots, or beets.
Spinach followed by sweet corn,
tomatoes or beans.
Young 01110n5 from sets fol-
lowed by eggplants or peppers.
Soil In Good Condition
There are a few exceptions
which should be remembered.
Root crops should not follow root
crops, and the sane is true of
the leaf crops. Turnips, carrots or
beets, for instance, should not fol-
low radishes, or Swiss chard follow
Ae lettuce.
In practicing succession plant-
ings, it is well to see that the soil
is in a fine, rich condition, so that
first crops may be harvested as
soon as possible. Where needed
add a complete plant food to the
garden at the rate of 4 pounds for
100 square feet of surface soil,
FORGET-ME-NOTS
Spray roses attacked by mildew
with liver of sulphur, one ounce
to two gallons of water.
Soak pot plants thoroughly be-
fore planting out and again af-
terwards in the evening,
Earth UI) main Crop potatoes.
Give tomatoes under glass
plenty of ventilation and water.
Complete all bedding out for
the summer show.
Continue to sow gold dust alys-
sum, anchusa, columbines, coreop-
818, sweet \\'illiams, etc., for next
year's show.
Cut away flowers from sweet
peas, lupins, violas to promote
fresh bloom.
SPRINKLING THE LAWN
The usual method of passing an
evening sprinkling the lawn may
be n pleasant way to while away
the hours, but it certainly does
not do any good. Use n good lawn
sprinkler that throws a spray like
raindrops high into the air, fall-
ing gently upon the grass. Let the
sprinkler remain in one position
for an hour or two to really satur-
ate the soil to a depth of four in-
ches or more. One may water all
day long, even during the hot
noonday hours, since injury froill
this practice is more fictional than
real. It certainly is much safer
than watering late into the even-
ing with nightfall leaving the
grass wet.
HORSES WORK BETTER
when freed from Saddle Boils, Cuts,
Sprains, Distemper, Colic, etc. by
Minard's Liniment. Keeping a bottle
of Mlnard's in the stable as well as
in the house saves Vet's and Doctor's
bills. 90

Perennial Weed Control
When the infestation of perennial
weeds has spread over a large area,
ultural and cropping methods have
to be relied upon for their eradica-
tion. It is advisable, however. to sse
sodium chlorate for the eradication
of small patches of perennials.
The latter half of the growing sea-
son is a good time to make an attack
on perennial weeds. There is not
quite the same rush of work then, as
In the spring of the year, and the
weather is usually more favourable
for the destruction of perennials, par-
ticularly couch grass. The roots of
this weed are killed by a few days'
exposure during dry warm weather
and since couch grass Is a shallow -
rooted weed, a large percentage of its
roots can he brought to the surface by
cultivation.

Butter Dealer Heavily
Fined
A 'manufacturer and dealer in
creamery butter in one of Canada's
larger cities was recently fined $50
and costs for representing and selling
second grade butter as being of first
grade quality. 1t was branded with
the words "First Grade."
Section 28 of the regulation under
Part II of the Dairy Industry Act
states in effect that any package con -
tabling creamery butter must be
marked so as to give a true and ac-
curate description of the quality of
the butter contained therein.
Any Province in Canada can give
this section of. The Dairy Industry Act
and Regulations the force of law by
onactng the necessary legislation.
This has been done by every province
except Neva Scotia and Prince Ed-
ward Island.
1t is the intent of this law that con•
iumers of butter will have some gain. -
Into as to the quality of their pur-
chases. The terms used to describe
the quality of butter are "First Grade,"
"Second Grade." "Third Grade." and
"Below Third Grade." These terms
are conspicuously placed on the main
panel of the package and should serve
as a guide to purchasers.
The marking of creamery butter
with the grade as described has prov-
en to be an incentive to the produc-
tion of a higher quality product which
should stimulate consumption of
butter and thus prove to be a decided
benefit to the dairy Industry gener-
ally.

Synopsis
A luxurious five-month cruise
around the world aboard the
"Marenia" brings together a
group of passengers for adven-
tures, romantic, entertaining , . .
and tragic , , . Like in "Grand Ho-
tel" these passengers offer a study
in human actions and reactions
which unconsciously bare their
souls. . . . These characters are
aboard the ship: Macduff, dour
Scotchman, single, of middle age;
Miss Mudge, school teacher, spend-
ing the savings of 20 years; An-
gela, faithful wife of Lovat, gig-
olo; Dick Charlton, first officer;
Clare, a person of experience;
Joan, a dissipated flapper; Jen-
ny, runaway wife, and Peter;
Captain Baring, master of the ship
... and his soul. No, go on with
the story.
Burying her head in the pillow,
Elle sobbed wildly and hysterically.
At last, exhausted, she fell asleep
and did not hear a knock on the
dour. Reassured by the quiet, An-
gela stole away, believing that it
was no longer any of her concern.
They were already going through
the Gulf of Siam, the Jiarenia steer-
ing her course with amid -night
Ft' alth on limpid waters.
Jenny slept late, a heavy, drug-
ged slumber. 1Vhen she wakened,
the sun was pouring in through the
open porthole, and the rose iva11-
lights were still on, like evening
dress at breakfast -time, She looked
ucruss at the other bed and saw
that it was empty. Then she re-
membered the events of the night
before. Raising herself on her el -
low she held her head, which ached
hs if it had been hit with a hammer.
1ler glance swept around the state-
room for familiar objects, and in a
second she sprang to her feet.
Where were Peter's things? All of
his things? She dashed into the
bathroom. Isis brushes, his hair
tonic, his soap its trait e

wardrobe door? She sat down 011
a chair and waited for strength, but
it did not come, At last she stag.

inside the closet. It was empty.

from her. \\'hat should site do?

The book of Ruth was described. -
by Goethe as ''the loveliest little
idyl that tradition has transmitted
to ur." We do not know who wrote
tho book, nor for that matter,
when the book was written.
The name "Ruth" means "c.0m•
rade" or "companion," and certain-
ly her whole history, as it is here
so exouisltely recorded, is the rub

"Ruth's beautiful devotion to her

people in giving them bread. And
she went forth out of the place
where site teas, and her two (laugh-
tere-in-law with her; and they went
on the way to return unto the land
of „lldah."
The aliens, we luny believe, were
hind to her, but in the night of sor-
row there are no friends like home
friends, especially' those of our own
kindred. A famine in, the fields of
Bethlehem tools her to Moab, but
now a famine in the heart made
her hunger for Bethlehem.
Twofold Blessing
"And Naomi said unto her two
daughters-iu•la\\', Go, return each
of you to her mother's house." Aud
although Ruth's father was alive
the natural place for the female
meillbers of the family would be
their mother's tent or house (Gen.
24:28) "Jehovah deal kindly with
you, as ye have dealt with the dead
and with ale. 9. Jehovah grant you
that re may find rest, each of you
in the house of her husband, Then
she kissed them, and they lifted up
their voice and wept."
10. And they said unto her, Nay,
but we will return with thee unto
tby people, 11. And Noanli said,
Turn again, my daughters; why
will ye go \\'itis me? have I yet sons
in my W01111); for I ant too old to
have a husband. 1f I should say, I
have hope, if I should even have a
husband to•nlght, and should also
bear sons; 13. would ye therefore
tarry till they were grown? would
ye therefore stay from having bus.
bands? nay, my daughters; for it
grieveth me much for your sakes,
for the hand of Jehovah is gone
fort h against me. "The times were
rude and W11d. A woman could be
safe and respected only tinder the
protection of a husband. 'There

which meet most men in lite —
the L,loic0.of work, the choice of
love, nod the choice of God — and
each of these is mirrored In some
111ettt:ure in the choice of Ruth.
Loving relationships afford a
sphere in which to do religious
work, Naomi, whose character was
rooted in religion, did effective
work for God. She brought Ruth
into the covenant of salvation.
The return of Naomi to her birth-
place must have been for her a
very bitter and humiliating expel'iLen
-
''in Bethlehem Naomi found the
half twined cottage, belonging to
her, and there she and Ruth took
up their nl:ode, Rut for a living
what was to be done? The answer
came in the proposal of Ruth to go
fnt0 the fields where the barley
harvest was proceeding and glean
after the reapers. (See for the law
of gleaning Lev, 19:9, 10; 23:22;
neut. 24:19) By great diligence she
.alight gather enough day by day for
the bare sustenance that contents
a Syrian peasant, and afterwards
some other means of providing for
herself and Naomi alight be found.
Loath as she was to expose Ruth
to the trials of the harvest -field,
Naomi bad to let her go. It was into
the field of Boaz that Ruth finally
came, it wealthy man of the family
of Elinielech, who was related Ito
Naonli's deceased husband, though
how closely related we do not even
know. Boaz from the very begin.
ning appears to be an unusual char-
acter, a man of a large heart, a
generous disposition, of delicate
sensibilities, of peen perception,
Seeing Ruth in the fields and being
struck at once with her beauty and
grace, upon inquiry lie discovered
who the stranger was, and gave out
word to This harvest hands that they
should not only allow her to glean
the stalks that were missed in the
harvesting, but they actually were
to let fall some of the bundles of
grain that she might obtain, with
the least amount of labor, an abun-
dant supply of grain to carry home.
The words of Boaz to Ruth are ex-
ceedingly beautiful, especially the
blessing which he pronounces upon
her. Here we find a true spirit of
piety in the heart of this rich man,
and also a spirit of genuine humil-
ity, I3oaz is the perfect gentleman,
Ancestry of David
There is no doubt -about it that
Boaz, a elan of the highest charac-
ter fell deeply to love with Ruth.
Everything here is honorable and
beautiful, and, we might say, won-
derfuly romantic. Ruth had cone
to Bethlehem a stranger, a Gentile,
poor, unknown, a widow. She was
now to be harried to one of Bethle-
hem's greatest citizens, to have a
1101ne of her own. Of this marriage
a son was born, to whom was given
the name Obed, which means "a
serving one," Of Obed was born
Jesse, who was the father of the
great Kitig David.

blest sort can really be strong,

Watching Birds
Restores Calm
To Songsters, World Is Place
Of Harmony, Not Chaos
"If more people would go to
the park now and then and watch
the birds, they would get out of
themselves, restore their perspec-
tive, and come home calmed and
refrshed," Mrs, Raymond V, In-
gersoll says, in the Christian Sci-
ence Monitor, She's been studying
birds — not as ail expert, but just
in the casual yet interested way
that is open t0 anyone —for years
Indeed she has traveled with a
friend as far as I3ritish Guiana
and Trinidad to study birds. And
all she'se seen and though about
the matter has led her to the above
conclusion, "To the birds the
world is not a place of chaos, but
of harmony, and industry and
song. There's a lesson in that for
our human consumption if we will
perceive it."
"Any back yard that has a few
shrubs growing in it can be a field
for the observation of birds," she
says.
Smart Animals
In the zoological gardens near
Brussels, a few minutes before
the recent earthquake began, some
animals showed signs of restless-
ness. The lions roared abnormal-
ly; bisons, antelopes, and deer
turned round in circles and charg-
ed the bars of their sages, as if
tying to get out. Immediately
after the shock the maddened

radio personality who realizes the
wealth of 'talent existing in Can-
ada.
Last week, from the ranks of
hundreds of aspirants from many
party of the United States, he se-
lected a young Canadian girt as
featured vocalist for his orches-
tra. She was Lila Deans, of Mont-
real, who for some time was a
member of "These Four," a quar-
tet of singers presented from
CI3M over the national network of
the Canadian I3roadcasting Cor-
poration.
Bernie's representative, a visitor
to Montreal, heard Miss Deane
singing from the local CBC sta-
tion while driving in his automo-
bile. Following the broadcast he
suggested that she leave for Now
York, there to take part in audi-
tions. When Bernie heard her
sing he dismissed the other as-
pirants and offered her an attrac-
tive contract, She had the par-
ticular style and personality for
which he was seeking.

Ruby Is Prized
Above All Gems
July Birthstone Said to Bring
Health, Wealth, Wisdom
H you were born in July, the
ruby, "gem of gems," is your birth-
stone, That is the name given to
the ruby by the Hindus, whe prise
it above all other precious stones.
It Is said to bring to its wearer
health, wealth, wisdom and happi-
ness, and is the emblem of true
love. It.has been said that he who
possesses a flawless ruby dwells
without fear in the midst of his
enemies, The ruby is spoken of In
the "Lapidaire en Vers," where it is
called the most precious of the 111
stones God created, when IIe cre-
ated all creatures; "the ruby, called
the lord of gents, the highly prized,
the dearly loved ruby, so fair with
its gly color." By the Lord's com-
mand, the ruby was placed on Aar
ron's neck,
Virtues As Talisman
Tho many talismanic virtues of
the ruby are noted in the 1411h cen-
tury treatise on gems attributed to
Sir John Manderville. Here the
fortunate owner of a brilliant ruby
is assured that lie will live in peace
and concord with all men, that nei-
ther his land nor his rank will be
taken from him, and that he will be
preserved from all perils,
Perhaps the most remarkable vir-
tue ascribed to the ruby by the an-
cients was the property of being
self-li niinous. An old Indian leg-
end says that the abode of the gods
is lighted by massive glowing ru-
bles.
Claims Schools
Like Factories
Prof. E. W. Robinson, principal
of Horton Academy and professor
of education at Acadia University,
N.S., blames mothers for the fact
"there are many boys in our col-
leges who should have been stop-
ped before they reached high
school,"
In an address before the Nova
Scotia federation of Homme and
School Associations last week, he
said, "\\'e are educating a crowd of
people to be kept by the rest of us,
simply because mother tt'anted her
boy to have a white collar. Some
day we in this province will wake
up and find that someone has got
to go to work.
Look Forward To Work
"People cannot eat bonds and
stock certificates. We have to look
forward to work, and we have to
face it. Why spoil a good mechanic
to make a poor preacher? There
may he a lot pounding the anvil
Who should be pounding the pulpit
but there are many, too, of which
the opposite is the case."
Ile charged schools were oper-
ated on the ''factory system" bo -
cause of grading. "It was a sad day
for public schools in Canada when
the grading system came into be-
ing."
They Just Don't
Like Our Lumber
Irish Importer Says Quality and
Price of Canadian Timber
Both Inferior
Canadian lumber compares un-
favourably in some respects to the
Finnish and Russian lumber, ac-
cording to C. L. Brookes, Dublin
lumber importer who arrived on
our shores last week, with a party
of British lumbermen,
At the moment, Brookes told
reporter's, he imports no Canadian
timber "because the Canadian
price is about three pounds ($15)
dearer a standard of 2,000 board
feet than Finnish or Russian lum-
ber, Then if you add the freight,"
he continued, "there is still an-
other pound, So the Russian and
Finnish lumber is about four
pounds cheaper laid down in Dub -
The seven British lumbermen
will tour lumber mills and paper
plants in Eastern Canada.
The orchestra's second selection
