A bountiful prize. Should King Carol refuse to fall in with Germany's plans, a bit- ter and bloody struggle is sure to ensue over the mastery of this re- gion. And King Carol, let it be re- membered, is a strong-minded man, Henry C. Wolfe. noted writer on European affairs, predicts a coming conflict: "Because of her geogra- phical location, her minority prob. lours (Magyar, Gorman, Slav), her position on tho route from the Reich to the Ukraine, Rumania is a keg of dynamite, Already a titan- ic struggle between Germany and Russia is beginning in Rumania. Other countries, like Bulgaria and Hungary, are pawns in this con- flict." Mr, Wolfe contends that it King Carol should flatly defy Hit- ler the latter could stir up a reviv- al of tho Iron Guard in Rumania and could inspire Hungarian and Bulgarian irredentists to reclaim territory from Rumania. The story of Czechoslovakia would be repeat- ed. DANGEROUS POSITION: An au- thoritative British review, the Ec- onomist, has come out flat-footed and said that the new position of the European democracies (France and Britain especially) is the most dangerous they have had to face within half a century. Qualifying the statement: except for Portugal, Egypt and Iraq, there are no coun- tries pledged to stand with Great Britain turd France should a war break out.

Wo point instead to what is going on right here in Ontario. Up in Stmcoe County this fall they've had no end of cattle stolen. Now the epidemic has spread to Grey County. The farmers are up in arras and patrolling their pastures with shotguns. They hope soon their midnight vigils will be rewarded, and the culprits, who have been carting the stolen animals away in trucks, get what's coming to them. WHAT JAPAN HOLDS: The pre- sent undeclared war in China up to this week has lasted 500 days. Some 200,000,000 of the 400,000,000 Chinese people have passed under nominal Japanese control, All the greatest Chinese cities are now in Japanese hands, Japan holds seven of the principal gateways to China, is attempting to profit from the trade which still flows through these gates. In every "conquered" province, however, determined and effective guerilla resistance continues. There is still no sign that Chinese morale is cracking. THE WEEK'S QUESTION: What increase is expected this year in Canada's outlay for arms? Answer: The annual military budget is like- ly to be stepped up $15,000,000 or $20,000,000 raising the 1939 total to upwards of $50,000,000. Aged Hunter Kills Wolf In Pasture MERIVALE CORNERS, Ont. — Eighty -five-year-old Jim Slack, of this village near Ottawa, a hunt- ing enthusiast for the past 57 years, proved last week he still . has a nimble trigger finger. Slack's son discovered a timber wolf in the pasture when he went for the cows. He ran back to the house to call his father, who was preparing for a partridge hunt. When they reached the pasture, the elder Slack saw the wolf run- ning across a clearing. He raised his 12 -gauge shotgun. One shot was all that t. -as necessary. It struck the animal in the chest.

Remember to get your copy of this week's Toronto Star Weekly, Wants Auto Parts In a Hurry, So Takes Plane to Get. Them When Stan Seaton, Teeterville (Ont.) garageman, wants service, he wants service. And in a hurry. Ono afternoon last month e re- quired some automobile repair parts. He telephoned to a store in Brantford, ordered the parts and said he wanted delivery "right away". Teeterville is some distance and in the country, but Mr. Seaton is nothing if not up to date, "I'11 be. at the Brantford airport in 15 minutes, so meet me there," he 'said and hung up. Ten minutes later a plane with Seaton as pass- enger, was circling for a landing. The storekeeper first thought the conversation sounded like some- body's idea of,a misplaced April Fool stunt, but he took a chance and also the parts, to the airport, where they were picked up by Seaton who had been flown in by Dan Dwyer, who lives about four miles from Teeterville, Floral Gumbo Chrysanthemums are not only good to look at; they make tasty soup. Here's the recipe recom- mended by K, Hirayama, presi- dent of the Japanese Chrysanthe- mum Society, Vancouver, B,C.: Put a pint of milk and a table- spoon of butter in a pan and heat. Add two tablespoonsful of corn starch and stir until thick. Add chopped chrysanthemum petals which have been boiled in water for two minutes. Serve hot. Pernickety Fawn Chews Tobacco The Erickson family of Swan Creek, Manitoba, is not keeping a dog these days. The house- hold has a pet fawn, Patsy. And she is creating- nearly as much trouble for the Ericksons and the neighbor's as anybody's dog, Patsy was found last sum- mer, and was so small that she was carried home in a jacket pocket, Since then she's grown considerably. She now chews tobacco, as- certaining first that it's fine cut. She frequently raids neighbor- hood gardens. New Car Models At Motor Show Held in Toronto the Last Week of November, This Brilliant Annual Event Will -Feature Unusual Exhibits, Entertain- ment In the biggest assembly of mot- orcars over presented in Canada, under the auspices that outshine even previous years, the National Motor Show of Canada, held in To- ronto during the week of November 26th to December 3rd will bring to- gether a quarter million dollars worth of new model cars and a distinguished list of entertainers, For Tenths lrlans have been pre- paring and.work has been progres- sing on the scores of exhibits that range from an exact scale reproduc- tion of an oil -drilling field to the most minute mechanical detail of a car or truck, And numerous fea- tures include such things as a dis- play of famous British fighting ships, reproduced in models and In- cluding such naval names as Nel- son's 'Victory and rho Battle Crui- ser Hood, world's largest battle cruiser which cost $35,000,000. Cabaret, 800 Persons The new cars will be presented in settings that outrlval the pro- ! ducts of artists' and designers' skill of former years, One exhibitor alone has devoted $30,000 to the construction of the exhibit which will present approximately 60 per- sons in a spectacle staged under unusual conditions. The cabaret, which accommo- dates 800 persons, has brought such stars as Lucille Johnston of the Club Paradise, New York, who recently was signed by Warner Brothers Pictures for five years; Don Francisco, slack -wire walker who conies direct from the Pallad- ium, London, and a command per- formance before the Royal Family; Dolores, singing and dancing star borrowed from the Folies Comique being featured at the Waldorf-As- toria, and many others, George Piggott, of Eccles (Eng- land), considers himself the world's luckiest boy. In a busy road he skidded on his bicycle and was thrown onto the road. A horse walked over him. The wheels of a van went over his leg. Only his knee was bruised; Released from a 45 -foot shaft after two days, a dog, none the worse for its ordeal, immediately attacked a dog belonging to one of its rescuers, at Walwa, Austra- lia.

Millman of the staff of the Dunlap Observatory said last week. But if it were possible for man to visit the moon, he would have to learn to walk all over again. "A space ship travelling 150 miles an 'hour would require' 1,000 hours to reach the moon," he said. ELECTRIC BRAIN DOES ARITHMETIC A mathematical brain operated by electrical waves that will quickly solve equations has been invented independently at the University of Pennsylvania and at the Radio Corporation of America laboratories, When direct current is used the electrical brain will solve equations having real roots, and when alternating currents are used it. will solve the equations when the roots are imaginary. Farm Column 4-41.04- S 11-1 $ $ .+...+.- (Conducted by Professor Henry G. Bell with the co-operation of the various departments of the Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph.) Q. "Would you "advise a person to top:dress fall wheat, and would you dress it lightly or heavily? And when we sowed it, we put 200 lbs. of fertilizer on it. Would you advise me to put straw or manure on the strawberries, and would .you put it on lightly, or heavy?" — C. P., of Bruce County. A. Light dressing of strawy man- ure would be a good protection for fall wheat. I would not suggest a heavy top -dressing in addition to 200 lbs. per acre of fertilizer. You do not say what analysis was used, but the protection I mentioned should be beneficial. • Regarding the putting of straw or strawy manure on strawberries, I would say that it is the practice of strawberry growers on light soils to apply a fairly good application of strawy manure in the Fall.

Q, "A person tells me if I sow fertilizer containing more than 2 per cent. lime that the lime will counteract on the fertilizer, thereby making it useless, while another says I may use fertilizer contain- ing 60' per cent, lime and still be as good.'. Would you be good en- ough to put me right on this?" H. D, -- Essex County. A. Whether or not lime will react on fertilizer and counteract the ef- fect of the phosphates, will depend upon the form of lime, the form of materials used in the fertilizer, 'and the length of time they are in con- tact. It the lime should be air -slak- ed burnt lime, it would be very ac- tive in reaction, or turning back the soluble phosphate to the insol- uble form. If the lime is natural. ground calcium carbonate lime- stone, it will not act so quickly. If the lime is largely magnesium car- bonate or dolomitic limestone, the reaction will be slowest. 2 per cent. would be 40 lbs: in a ton. I believe it is possible to use double or triple this amount without much rever- sion, providing the mixed materials do not stand very long. 60 per cent. or 1,200 lbs. per ton seems to me to be an excessive amount of ground limestone to put in a mixture, I know that this has been done in certain cases where such concen- trated material as ammo -phos (11- 48) used as a better business to put in just enough lime to make up a mixture to the half ton total where ammo -phos and concentrated potash are used, and reduce the amounts applied per acre. Fat Actually Shortens Life It has long been argued that fat persons live shorter lives than other people, Dr, Louis I. Dublin, of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Co., decided to test this theory on women. At a meeting of Life In- surance Medical Directors in New York, he cited statistics based on 121,248 women's policies and con- cluded: "The extra weight carried by these women eventually causes premature breakdown of the cir- culatory system." The Native Affairs Department of South Africa is investigating a complaint of a woman at Umhlali that her husband had traded their two children for a, motorcycle.

Everyone goes to Chapel that evening and Whitey saunters along with the roat,-curious as to the pro- ceedings, When they all sing though, he clunks Mo over the head, suggesting that he be quiet. Mo is hurt. Suppose he does sin off-key a little. A bit later, Whitey makes his first real mistake when he tries to help Tony, a crippled boy, move his chair. Tony angrily refuses his aid. "Whitey, gintme a piggyback tomorrow?" Resentful because he doesn't understand the code of these boys who let a crippled guy alone—which is all that Tony wants—Whitey gives his attention to the adoring little Pee -Wee (Bobs Watson). Over the washbasin, Pee -wee chatters to him and laughs uproariously when Whitey tells him jokes. Whitey is in a fine, good humor by now and marches into the dormitory with assurance. "Smart guys, huh? Just wait." Most of the boys are in their beds already. There is an empty cot between Tony's bed and Mo's. Rub- bing his neck with his towel Whitey loudly de- mands some lights. Nobody answers but every eye in the roost is fixed on him. Flexing his muscles Whitey climbs under the covers and immediately crashes to the floor. There is loud laughter from all of the boys who have plotted the joke. "I'll vote twice." "JVhen 1'nt. Mayor—" Whitey plans revenge. Learning that the boys hold a semi-annual election among themselves for Mayor, he decides that the next office -holder of this "fat job" will be himself. He starts his campaign and Pee -wee laughs joyously when he sees the caric- atures that Whitey makes of the other candidates. Brashly, Whitey tells Mo he will win in 'a walk.

THE STANDARD COUNTY COUNCIL (Continued front Page 1) application forms, but there were often incomplete, "Some clerks think that because the county is not paying any of the pen• sion the applicant might just as well get the full pension. -I don't think you men want that," The Provincial Government was ask- ed that investigations made . by the the county old age pension and motfi- era' allowances board be accepted by the provincial department without further investigation and pensions and allowances be issued accordingly, This motion was sent to committee. • Wednesday moriing's session waft given over to an open forum of ques- tion and answers followed by discus- sions, 'conducted by J. P. Coombe, in- spector for the. Department of Muni* cipal Affairs. Practically every phase of municipal government was dis- cussed. At the close Reeve Peter W. Scott in moving a vote of appreciation to Mr. Coombe said that he had been seven years in the county council and this was the best educational session he had yet attended. The reeves had learned things of real value to them when they return to their townships. Reeve Bryans seconded the motion which was heartily endorsed. Mr. Coombe spent the best part of two hours answering questions. E. J. Jarmaine of the Department of Municipal Affairs discussed the va• luo of municipal accounting and strongly urged that a cost system be. set up at the county home so that the councilors might learn the cost of in. mates per diem. This recommendation was endorsed by the council by authorizing the treasurer to set up a proper account- ing system to show the cost of main- tenance per Inmate In the home. T1te county home committee's re- com;ntenda.tlon that a trust fund be set up by the treasurer at once using • the -general acs^.- surplus this year and the il7alance of the money to come In next year's estimates, was author- ized. The following grants were author- ized: County Councils' Association, $25; North and South Huron Teach- ers' Associations, $59 each. Grants to public libraries were deferred until the January session. J. M. Govenlock, inspector of the Huron County Home, and Reeve Bry ars, chairman of the County Homecommittee, advised that during the current year a new electric range had been paid for, insurance for three years had been paid, and considerable cost for draining had to he borne. Mr. Shearer, tho newly -appointed agricultural representative, addressed council on matters under his juris- diction, such as school fairs, calf '31111)S, public school chubs, short cour- ses. He said that 22 meetings had been held regarding the eradication of T. 13. and that 22 more were to be held as soon as possible, and advised that there must be a two-thirds ma- jority in favor before the question can be presented to parliament for action. Mr. Mogg, of the firm of Mogg & Quinlan, valuators, who have been eii• gaged to equalize the assessment, stated that a survey of lake front cottages had been made while occu- pied during the summer; that they! had not completed their work its the towns as yet with the exception of Soaforth; that each municipality will be enlightened on their findings prior to the general discussion of equaliza- tion before the whole County Council, WED., NOV, 23, 1938. mammommeammoimmilliummillimi WETTLAUFER'S Winter Shopping Party BROADCLOTH SHIRTS IN A CHOICE RANGE OF PATTERNS Collars attached, some with fused collars.

He returns to his Circle L ranch to find his father dead and sinis- ter forces at work, trying to make him violate his parole so that he can again be railroaded to prison. The Brockwells and their gang are plotting to gc:n possession of Circle L ranch and the property of Mona Hall, a neighbor and life-long friend of Slim Loyale. Slim discovers that Sheriff Starbuck has joined the plot against him. With the help of Da- kota Blue and his cowboys, Slim Loyale defies the land -grabbers to do their worst. Mona stamped her foot. "Stop that kind of talk, Slim Loyale. You're no quitter. You've got a hard fight ahead, but it's worth while, isn't it? You see how your real friends feel about it. They are willing to back you to the limit, believing in you utterly. And if you don't do your part you are throwing them down, render- ing their faith in you a worthless, empty thing." Slim's head came up slowly. "Yo're right, Mona," he agreed grimly. "I never guessed what real friendship meant until now, Shore, I'll play the game. Dakota Blue tells me that Leo Brockwell has been hangin' around yuh a lot. That don't mean yuh care in par- ticular about him, does it?" "All I've Got" "Does it appear like it?" she retorted. "No, I don't care for him; I should say not. He gives me the shivers, always did. But I've got to get money from some- where, things have been going so bad for me. And I've been toler- ating him merely to put over this sale of stock that Abe was talking with him about. 1—I guess it's all off now." Mona's shoulders sagged a little wearily. Slim stood up and went over to her. "My friends ain't haltin' at nothin' to help me," he stated quietly. "An' I ain't gonna halt at nothin' to help them. How much money do yuh need? Yuh can have all I've got." Mona's eyes grew a little mis- ty. "I could use five thousand dol- lars very nicely, Slim," she ack- nowledged, "But I won't take a cent from you. You may need it yourself, later, Courtney and his gang may start in rustling you to paupership any time, the same as he has me." "Courtney!" exclaimed Slim. "Yuh mean Flash Courney from over past Battle Mountain?" Mona nodded. Slim was silent, thinking. "Yeah," he muttered finally, "it could be done. Flash Courney, eh?" He looked at Mona. "How come yuh ain't been able to fight him off? Have yuh taken it up with Jigger Starbuck?" Mona shrugged. "I've seen Starbuck about it, but so far he hasn't done a great deal. And be- cause of lack of funds, I haven't been able to keep anything like a full crew for the past year. A Lot of Debts "You know how Dad got roped in on that mining stock deal.

It got to where I couldn't stand being haggled at any long- er. So I borrowed five thousand dollars and paid off all of thosa old debts. "I thought that owing the money in one lump sum to the right sort of a person would enable me to get more time and pull through. But I find it was merely robbing Peter to pay Paul, This sale I was dickering with the Brockwells for, would have helped some, but I imagine it was just a matter of stalling off the inevitable a little longer. I'm afraid I'm going to lose my ranch, Slim," Mona's voice was choked and teary as she finished. "Who'd you borrow that money from?" asked Slim. "From—from the lawyer, Geo, Arthur." "George Arthur!" exploded Slim. "Why he was the.lyin' pole- cat who sold out on me at my trial an' let 'em railroad me for some - thin' I never did. 1 didn't think yuh'd have anythin' to do with him after that, Mona," Slim's words were bitter. "I don't think your underdand, Slim," she said wearily. "I was desperate. I had to get the r.'oney somewhere. 111r. Arthur was the only one who would loan me that much on a straight mortgage.

Dad's creditors gave me sixty days to produce the money before they called a sheriff's sale.

Mona smiled in return, , but shook her head at the same time. "That's dear of you, Slim, But you mustn't do it, I'd feel terri- ble, owing money to you. And I'll make out some way or other. I feel pretty confident of that," Mona's more spirited tone did not fool Slim a bit, He saw through it and understood the val- iant courage of this slip of a West- ern girl. Without kith or kin she was waging a lone -handed, losing battle against big odds and she was courageously facing the ulti- mate. Slim's eyes softened as he watched her.

The secret of really shining hair is brushing — vigorous, persistent and frequent, Don't be afraid if a few strands fall out. Some will fall every day, no matter how healthy your head and hair may be. Brushing Does It Keep your hair brushes immacu- lately clean; wash them otfen. And be sure to brush your hair away from the head—not down on it. If you put a drop or two of bril- liantine on your brush, you will ensure a lovely sheen. Dandruff is the chief hair worry. Despite general belief, it is NOT caused by dryness, but by a germ in the upper layer of the skin. To cure dandruff, massage with hot oil three times a week. Very little oil is needed; heat two tablespoonfuls of olive oil, pour into a saucer, and get to work, lt you have dry hair, scalp mas- sage is called for; place your fin- gers firmly on your scalp, and ro- tate the scalp itself - do not rub, Continue this treatment twice a day for a week or two, then grad- ually reduce the frequency. The following helpful leaflets may be obtained by sending a 3c stamp for each one required: Your Hair; Face Care; I -sand Beauty; Ilust Development; Superfluous hair; Eye Beauty; Reducing in Spots; flow to Slim; Underweight; Feet Care, Your personal beauty problems will also be answered, confidentially.

The Eighth Commandment is necessary to protect society not merely against the violence of the burglar and the craft- of the un - poster, but also against the deceit- fulness of. our own hearts, asking, What harm is in the evasion of an impost? Why should I not do jus- tice to myself when law refuses it? On every one of its sacred pages the Bible endeavors to shift the centre of gravity of man's nature from selfishness to love, from man to God, from time to eternity, from earth to heaven; The lesson of the Eighth Commandment' is the lesson of Christ, "Set your affections on things above", Zaccheus Luke 19: 1-10, 1. And the en- tered and was passing through Jericho, 2. And behold, a man called by name Zacchaeus; and he was a chief publican, and he was rich, Jericho was a very ancient city and a very wicked city. It was on the frontier of Palestine, and through it much trade was compelled to pass, necessitating the residence here of a tax -col- lector. Zacchaeus was not only a tax-collr'ctor, but he was the chief tax -collector of that community. Among the Romans the tax-gath- •erer bought the privilege of gath- ering. IIe paid a large sum for the office; and..the taxes were his own, Thus the more he gathered, the more he gained, There was great temptation here to extortion and or pression. 3, And he sought to see Jesus who Ito was; and could not for the crowd, because he was little of statute, 4, And he ran on before, and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see hint: for he was to pass that way. Zacchaeus down in his heart knew he was dishon- est and a thief. Of course he knew he was out of all com- munion with God, It was the hunger. of his }kart for the things that.satisfy that made him run on before the Lordand climb up into this sycomore tree. 'The Tax -Collector 5, And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and said unto him, Zacchaeus, make haste, "and colpo, down; for`to4lay• I must abide at thy house: .6. And he made haste, and came down, and •received him • jpyfully. Note the eagerness; the 'joyfulness, the ear- nestness, which marked every move of Zacchaeus that day. Jesus never forces nnyone to accept him, Ile never drags anyone into the kingdom of God, 7, And when they saw it, they .all murmured, saying, He is gone in to lodge with a Ivan that is n sinner, 8. And Zacchaeus stood, .and said unto the Lord, Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give • to the poor; and if I have wrong- fully exacted aught of any man, I restore fourfold. 9. And Jesus said unto him, To -day is salvation come to this house, forasmuch as he also is a son of Abraham, 10, For the Son of man came to seek and to save that which was lost. In offering to restore fourfold all he had falsely taken he meets the extreme penalty imposed by the law on a man who was being •compclled to make reparation (Ex. 22: 1; 2 Sam, 12: 6). Luke 19: 45, 46. 45, And he en- tered intd the temple, and began to cast out them that sold, 46, ;ay- ing unto them, It is written, And my house shall be a house of prayer: but ye have made it a den •of robbers.

National fitness (National Fitness, sponsored by the Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation,) HEATING, VENTILATING AND AIR CLEANING IN MOD. ERN SCHOOLS By W. E. Affleck, B.Sc., B.Paed,, St. Catharines C. I. & V. S. The effect of the heating equipment in a school roam on the health and comfort of the oc- cupants depends on three factors, namely, a sensible temperature, humidity, and purity of the .air. Exchange teachers from , the British Isles comment freely on the higher temperature maintained in Ontario classrooms. Recom- mended Fahrenheit temperature for a workshop varies from 60 de- grees to 64 degrees. For an audi- torium it is 66 degrees and for a regular classroom it is 68 degrees. Tests have been made to ascertain the effect of increased tempra- turs. The weight of evidence in- dicates that the vitality of an aver- age individual is depressed quick- ly for small increases in tempera- ture. Are our Ontario pupils los- ing out when they carry on their work in classrooms where the tem- perature is seldom under 70 de- grees and often reaches 74 de- grees? Real consideration of this problem should be undertaken by Ontario teachers, principals and caretakers. ' The Right Temperature Too often our pupils are slight- ly chilly titen the temperature is maintained fit 68 degrees. Air that is too dry causes excessive and rapid evaporation of moisture from exposed portions of the body thus causing the pupils to become chilled. If the humidifying ap- paratus of a school is inefficient or lacking in capacity, makeshift humidifiers should be installed in each room and given proper atten- tion by the teacher and caretaker to insure sufficient moisture in the air. The savings in fuel costs and the increased efficiency Of the pu- pils wihi warrant any financial out- lay necessary to purchase auxil- iary humidifiers like those in con- stant use 'in private homes, Hot dry air affects the membranes of the nose and throat causing much discomfort and many irritating and dangerous coughs and colds. Many fairly new schools have a combination heating ventilating system supplying washed humidi- fied air. The main sources of heat aro thermostatically controlled steam radiators but these in many cases prove to be rather unsatis- factory, To meet the requirements of school ventilation regulations, the air is changed by forced draft, Wind controlled 'ventilators of Jesus. The first one is record- ed in John 2: 13-17,, Tho passage (rioted by our Lord is found in Isa, 66: 7. See also Jer, 7: 11. What our Lord here is fiercely condemning i t the dragging of the business of the world into the precincts of a holy place, dedicated to trorship and proycr and sacri- fice and praise. LIFE'S LIKE.

Inside air may be reheated and recirculated. Each unit is supplied with ther- mostatic 'controls 'that operate clampers and an electric driven fan.

Book Reading Is A Vital Action Psychologist Challenges Statement That it is But a Substitute for Real Living Challenging the philosophy that "reading is but a substitute ac- tivity," Dr. Alice Bryan, psycho- logist of Columbia University and Pratt Institute, asserts "the read- ing of books or other printed ma- terial may be just as real and vital an experience as playing a game of tennis, building a radio, paint- ing a picture, or marching in a parade." The relative stimulus value of activities depends upon the capac- ity of the individual to adjust them'to his own previous and fu- ture experienecs, she added.

HEAR NEWS FROM ENGLAND Beside the famous Majestic powerful tone, the 1939 "Mighty Monarchs of the Air" set a new standard in performance for short-wave reception, due to de- voting individual bands for each short-wave channel, each of which are spread out to 10" wide, per- mitting ,foreign stations to be tuned in easily and accurately. It is now a simple mutter to listen to the news broadcast from Lon- don, England, if you own one of these new "Spread -Band" Majes- ties. • Ancient Chinese Ruler's Proverbs "To depend upon otners is as difficult as if you were ascending to the ninth heaven." This, is just one of the maxims of a famous Chinese ruler, Li Kew Ngoh, who lived more than 400 years ago. They were recently read to a Singapore audience by a Malayan -born Chinese whose fam- ily has guarded the ruler's advice from generation to generation. On the whole, they Lhow that human nature doesn't change much. For example: "To seek financial aid from anyone is like swallowing a three- foot sword." "Poor man should not call on rich relatives, for they will not be welcomed and treated as rela- tives." "Work hard on the land and you will be prosperous." "Many a person blames his parents for not leaving him a big fortune, not realising that his use- lessness as a son accounts for his continued poverty and thus not being able to shed honor to his parents," "Many a son has amassed a for- tune clue to his diligence, persev- erance and efforts although his parents died penniless." "Many big fortunes lett .by rich parents have been squatjdered by prodigal sons," Beacon Visible 25 Miles Away A great beacon, with a 760,000 candle-power beans floods across the sky from Melton Airport, a new aerial guide for night -flying airmen that can be seen from a distance of 25 miles.

Philip G. Johnson, vice- president in charge of operations of the air lines in making a recent address at Toronto stated that within two months TransCan- ada planes will be r'egulorly flying a night schedule, Spotted along each runway are thirty-two "contact" lights out- lining the landing space.
