So next time you make a catch that is wearing a good-sized bump un- der its chin, don't forget it might not be something it ate but just the visible effects of goitre. The medicos blame this condi- tion on iodine deficiency and for treatment prescribe this liquid as medicine. It seems that the agri- Oulturo experts have also discover- f+d this condition of goitre in cat- tle, sheep and hogs as well with the result that iodine is now rec- ommended in the food as a pre- ventive measure. The salt licks and salt mixed in the animal's food contain quantities of iodine which remedy this Condition, THEY FLY HIGH In answer to an inquiry about how high birds fly, we have •thia to say, it all depends entirely up- • on the bird, of course. Storks and cranes have been seen flying some 20,000 feet above sea level over the Himalayas in India; A vulture has been seen 25,000 feet above sea level around Mount Everest, which is also in the Himalayas, Rat Bites Baby Then Gets Father Pierre Englehart of Ellis Bay, Que., was bitten by a vicious rat when he fell asleep while watch- ing for the rodent, which had bit- ten the face of his 8 -months -old daughter the previous night., Mrs. Englehart was awakefld by the cries of the infant and she saw the rat • in the baby's cradle, The child's face was bit- ten severely in several places. Ellis Bay is on Anticosti Island in the Gulf of Lawrence. He Was Responsible For The Altmark Incident This photo of Winston Churchill,•First Lord of the British Admiral- ty, is the most recent one of the man on whose shoulders rests the re- sponsibility for the politic% of the British navy. The spectacular invasion of Norwegian waters by British warcraft to rescue 300 British seamen from aboard the German prison ship, Altmark, is the latest and greatest of these responsibilities. The admiralty announced frankly that it gave the orders for the British destroyers to rescue the Altmark's captives even if it meant going into Norwegian territory to do so, VOICE OF TIM PRESS EASIER TO PREDICT Tho difference between a movie plot and a garden plot is that in the forfner, one can usually tell what is going to come up, —Edmonton Journal, `e_- • A WINDY CAMPAIGN Says an Ottawa despatch: "Whirlwind campaign will be launched by all major parties with- in a fortnight."

Tbero's plenty to do in a small town if one wants to do it, and if a city resident became actively in- terested in the many forms of ac- tivities that are at his or her dis- posal we'll wager that it would keep them so busy that there would be no time whatever left to even think about what a tough break life has handed them, or something. "What do you. people do living in a small town?" Next time you hear that kind of super- cilious talk open up with both bar- rels and convince the city speaker they're just kidding themselves but not others. Although we have had Huntingdon in mind when writing the answer to this ques- tion, all the other towns are alike. --Huntingdon (Que.) Gleaner. Gardening 5... Spring may not really start with the first day of March next week but, regardless of the weather, the real gardener is already planning what is going, to be done this 'sea- son. Experts admit that it is pos- sible to make some sort of a gar- den without a •plan, in fact they usually point scornfully to many examples. But for, real satisfac- tion, actual results and fun, they strongly advocate a little planning before field operations begin. There are seed catalogues.and bul- letins to be pored over, flower beds to be sketched on paper, var- ieties new and old to be selected. Dreams In Packets When we buy a' packet of seeds we ,are literally buying a dream which will come true. Unlike al- most any other purchase this is only the beginning of our pleas- ure but the end of the expense. It is something that will grow into beauty or usefulness. Sweet Peas Soon Sweet Peas must be planted early. This plant develops its ex- tensive root growth and upper vine structure when the weather is cool, if it does not get its feet well down into the soil then, when the days turn hot, it is liable to wither and cease furnishing its daily quota of color and frag- rance. Planting directions are simple but important, Successful garden- ers advise a trench, dug at least a foot deep, filled within two in- ches of the top with rich soil mix- ed with well rotted manure or old leaves. Seed is planted about an inch or two deep and just Its soon as the soil can be worked, Rains will wash more soil into the trench filling it up gradually and thus.adding further to root growth. Oil Shortage Is Envisage Expert Says Curtailment in d'anada •May•Be`pictated By War Rationing May Come-- Householders with oil -burning furnaces, may have to go back to coal if the war lasts long enough. Oil -burning locomotives may, bo replaced by coal burners and other oil -burning devices may likewise be affected. Gas for motor fuel may be rationed, and some buses - and trucks stop running. These radical ,changes were en- visioned in a paper by G. A. Ga- herty, M.E.I,C., president of the Montreal Engineering Company, dealing with the Dominion's econ- omic wartime front, and present- ed before the Engineering Insti- tute of Canada assembled in con- vention at Toronto, FOR MECHANIZED WARFARE , "Tho need of exchange for war. purposes may make it desirable to curtail domestic consumption of petroleum products as the war pro- ceeds," stated Mr, Gaherty. "As we become adjusted to a war basis gasoline for private auto- mobiles may have to bo rationed as in England, and the use of bus- es and trucks may have to bo stop- ped altogether where passengers and goods • can hbe:;transported by rail. This all•• would reduce the pressure on the sources of supply and release tanker capacity for transport of oil from North and' South America ports to the thea- tre of war, and so make available additional supplies of oil and gaso- line vital to the successful con- duct of mechanized warfare." Probe Grouches Of Customers Faults Found by Householders Are Analyzed Discourteous Clerks Top List Elmer P. Resseguie, of the Scripps -Howard newspapers, told a recent meeting of the Toronto Ad- vertising and Sales Club the re- sults of a recent home inventory conducted by Scripps -Howard, del- ivered a penetrating analysis of the buying trends of the average man and woman. RETAIL FAILINGS About the only "constant factor" in the grocery business, said Mr. Resseguie, was the finding that Sat- urday was by far the best sales day. An analysis of retail failings revealed that faults were divided into the following percentages: Discourteous clerks,36•per cont; poor values, 9; insufficient help, 8; misrepresentation, 8; poor storo arrangement, 6; alteration and ex• change trouble, 4; credit practices, 4; out-of-date, 3; and delays in de. livery, 2. These, said Mr. Resseguie, were the pet grouches of householders questioned during the survey, that was made in 52,000 homes of 16 cit- ies.

CHAPTER X The •third wdek of their honey- moon vacation, Bart received a long telegraphic 'night letter from Britton, the now man managing the shop during his absence, It was the thing 'he had dreaded all along, fully expected, The budget customers were defaulting 'Pay- ments.. During his . absence, they were neglecting•their contract ob- ligations, Bart wired Britton to send the usual formal reminders out, with polite warnings that defaults must be made up promptly. • ' "Warnings, forms and delin- quentinotices all sent first week.

They went home at once, though Iris protested tearfully, They lucre having such fun,.they'd never had such fun before; had they? •And they plight not have any va- cation at all next year!

She didn't have to report back for work until Mon-. day morning, and it was only Fri- day. They had been home ever since late the afternoon, before. And Bart had stayed at. the•shop Honig over things with Britton and Stevens until. after midnight, I -le was going to work every night this week.' He was, that, is, until Iris sprung the dinner party with- •. out warning, Saturday night. Company Coming • "Hurry dear," she urged nerv- ously, "we've company. conning and you'll have. to change." "Change? What for? Who ever comes here who'll mind my every- day duds?" "The Negleys and I-fanunonds and Trents, We're going on to the Yacht Club after dinner. So do make yourself gorgeous, darling." Bart turned to the bathroom, rebellion warring all over his seri- ous young face. Ho had ten days overtime on the books and ac- counts, a week of hard work get- ting out special letters and cor- respondence on the delinquent ac- counts. He was tired, irritable, nervous.

Any Money Saved? "Iris, have you any money at all saved?" Bart asked, coining in 'to tie his tie while Iris completed last minute touch:' to her toilet.

"I'm in a bad jam; need some ready cash in a hurry, dear, that's all," He looked at the new dress. then, realized he hadn't seen it before. • "New dress, Iris?" Sheshook her head quickly. Put her mirror down hastily, but not in time to cover the little shop tag his quick eye detected, . "Not now," Bart said slowly: Picking up the mirror, staring at, the 'price -tag; $19,50, .marked clown front $25. "Of course its new, ,Bart, I didn't want to tell you because. you make 'such a scene every time I buy so much as a pair of stock- ings."

"Yes, after all, Iris, if it was golf or a little quiet game with the boys, we could understand. But business—phooey. Whatever floes it get hint? Business will be just as bad, no. matter what any- one does about it, And you might as well have a little fun along the way," ' It was fun, too. Though Iris missed having Bart there, steady, dependable, tho minute one of the others stopped dancing with her and went to look up his full time partner. Ho danced a lot with her, and Ile was a marvelous dancer. Only Ho believed his dancing was as good, if not better than Fred Astaire's. So it was somewhat of a strain, keeping up with his fancy innovations. It was almost like being a specialty dancer in a double team at a nightclub, Only much more tiring, Then; Don Hammond got a lit- tle tight and began telling her the woes of his much frustrated, mis- understood life.

We can look forward to the foals and! soon Mrs. Phil will be worrying about eggs for Netting and the passageways will be cluttered np with "clucking" hens, The barnyard must also Le cleaned out and its accinnuta.tion dlegonsed eve, the fields for the benefit of the crops that we 'will grow this summer. With 'hay going down in thz east mow . , , plane must be made for the stack at the first meadow fence to be drawn up before our supply gets down too low, 1 came to find that it was "Peck's Bad Boy," You remeimber that book. Your education was sorely neglected, if you hate never read that amazing story, The old buggy eclat was handy and having a pogketlful of apples from the pit which I had intended taking to the house, 1 relaz+ed for a montenit to per- use once more the thrill of a book that 'in my younger days fattier frown ed upon as being frivolous and serving no useful or educational purpose. What a boy! 1 suppose that half• coutained desire in every man's heart ,to !be just a trifle of the daredevil makes this book a favorite. The pranks of that boy and his -devilish- nese in tormenting his father and oth• er characters are enough to delight any one's (taste for literature: I trivet confess that I forgot everything but skimmed along 'through the pages of the book, living once more the days when I managed to lie on my stone tech In the 'hay mow with . one eye cocked through a knot -hole , watching for tether to come out from dinner to Jo the chores and the other following' the anitics of "Pock's Bad Boy." A shadow loomed? up over the driv Ing shed door recalling my. mind to. the present, and !Ed Higgins said, "What're you doing Phil?" I fairly smothered the book under the end of the buggy seat and lied quite blackly, "Just looking yup a few pointers in a veterinary book," In ithe next minute 1 could have kicked myself, but It was too late to recall the statement. Ed is one of that typo who probab• ly forbids his own boys from reading anything but a good Tory paper and the 'Almanac, and it would have been hard to explain my reading of Peek's Bad Boy when the Spring work is be• ginning to pile up.

The passover, of course, . was that feast celebrated in commem- oration of the night when the Is- raelites were redeemed from their Egyptian bondage by the passing over of the angel of death, who slew the first-born of every fam- ily, except those on whose door- posts was the mark of the blood. Our Lord is here about to ac- complish a greater exodus than the one commemorated by the feast, for his was for all men who would believe in him; his redemp- tion is deliverance from the bond- age of sin and ultimately from death itself. His Words at the Table ! 20. Now when even was come, he was sitting at meat with the • twelve disciples; 21. and as the;: were eating, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray mo. 22. And they Were ex- ceeding sorrowful, and began to. say unto 'him every one, Is it I, Lord? 23. And lie answered and said, He that dipped his hand with., me in the dish, the same shall be- tray me. 24. Tlie Son of Man gooth, even as it is written of him: but woe unto that man through whom the Son of Man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had not been born. In the Last, men eat hy dipping their , hands into the common dish. This does not tell who is the traitor, for they all dip their hands in tho common dish, It emphasizes rath- er the heinousness of the treach- ery. For to share a common meal in the East constituted the most sacred bond' of friendship. 25. And Judas, ,who betrayal him, answer- ed, and said, is it I, Rabbi? He saith unto hint, Thou hast said. It is enough to tell Judas, who knows the fact, that Jesus knows it, but not enough to create in the minds of the, others more than a sus- Iiicion, 2G. And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and break it; and he gave to the dis- ciples, and said, Take, cat; this is my body. In Jesus' present act, there is a consecrating of the com- mon meal according to Jewish passover custom; but more 'than that thero is a sacramental sym. holism, tip meaning of which may be, This broken bread represents my body, as it will be when it is broken by death; It is a parable in I'VE TI40001-IT OF A GOOD IDEA ! -.
