Monday, A Holiday ? ?
Nothing definite has come to light
on whether Monday will be observed
as a holiday in Blyth or not.

with other towns in the district grad-

is possible that stores here, may also
remain open, aL1eaat part of the day.

Presirl ent • Roosevelt
Re -Elected.
Y The re-election at President Reese-
g velt for another four-year term, as
head of the great Democracy to the
SS South, has, we believe, caused keen
satisfaction in all circles within the
Dominion.
At no previous time had there been
such a keen, interest in an election
campaign.. and ,it's ultimate result, in
the United States, taken here, and we
believe, all over the Dominion, before,
Mr. Roosevelt has been well tried,
and has proven himself a real friend
to Canada, and the rest of t'he British
Empire, That thought was probably up•
pet'most in the minds of all Canadians
n as they awaited t'he final outcome of
the United States election,
In the past the peop:e of the Domin-
ion have .listened very often to his
friendly voice on the radio, just as, we
are sure, thousands of Americans have
listened to the strong courageous
words of ,both 'Prime Minister Chun
chill, and those of His Majesty, King
George, at frequent intervals.
• The bonds oi friendship between
our Nations have been drawn very
close through their words and coop-
eration, and may be destined to be
drawn even more closely, as these

An accident, causing damage to a
car driven by Glen Cartier on Hallow-
e'en n'ght came up for discussion.
Some prankster had placed a large
stone in the middle of the road, and as
Mr, Carter came over the hill, he was
unable to avoid striking It, The
stone bent the front axle, and, in rol-
lin; in muter the car, caused It to
get out of control, and the car endeu
up on a bank on the road side, with
other damage also done. An Investig-
ation showed that the stone had been
removed from a corner fence post,
and carried to it's place on the road.

LESSON VI
THE GOLDEN RULE (Armistice
Sunday).—Luke 6
PRINTED TEXT, Luke 6: 27.38.
GOLDEN TEXT—"As ye would
that men should do to you, do ye
also to them likewise." Luke 8: 31.
THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time,—All the events of this
chapter occurred in the early sum-
mer of A.D, 28,
Place.—Tile plucking of grain oc-
currednear the city of Capernaum;
the healing of the man with the
withered hand occurred In Galilee,
though we do not know exactly
where. The choice of the Twelve
and the Sermon on the Mount both
occurred near Capernalun.
This lesson speaks primarily of
personal enemies. We are living
in a time when the hearts of men
are being made sour and corrupt
by brooding over what they think
e►re crimes of other peoples until
the whole life is filled with bitter•
nest, Such a stream of pollution
can be washed out only the life
of which Christ here speaks.
At the very beginning of this
lesson wo have clearly revealed the
mysterious and yet continually me
phasized fact that men In Pales-
tine, for the most part, and espec-
ially those high in religious circles
t,Imong the Hebrew people, not only
did not sympathize with the work
and teachings of Christ, but did
everything they could to find fault
with the ministry of the Master, to
oppose him, and to bring the die -
approval of others upon him,
Emphasis On Love
In this sixth chapter of Luke
we have Christ teaching the true
meaning of the Sabbath in relation
to men; choosing the twelve dis-
ciples; revealing the character
istics of a life which God can fully
epprove, After Jesus had chosen
the twelve apostles on the summit
of the mountain where he had
spent the night, he descended to a
level place on the mountain -side,
and there met the multitude and
delivered the sermon which -holds
first place among sill the discourses
in the world. If this address is the
same as the Sermon on the Mount,
(found in Matthew), it is to be
noted that each account begins with
the main body of the discourse,
differs only In the aspect of truth
emphasized by the two writers. In
Matthew the essence of the Chris-
tian life is described as true right-
eousness in distinction from the
formalism of the Pharisee. Iu Luke
+hn beetle -lee of righteousness is
found in love. M:.tthew was writ-
ing with Jewish Christians in mind,
Luke was writing for the world.
Five -Fold Way of Lova
Luke 6: 27. But I say unto' you
that hear, Love your enemies, do
good to them that hate you,
28, Bless them that curse you,
pray for them that despitefully use
you,
29. To hint that smiteth thee on
tho one cheek offer also the other;
and from him that taketh away
thy cloak withhold not thy coat
also.
30. Give to every one that asketh
thee; and of him that taketh away
thy goods ask therm not again,
31. And as yet would that men
should do to you, do ye also to
them likewise.
32. And 1f ye love them that love
you, what thank have ye? for even
sinners love those that love therm.
33. And if ye do good to them
that do good to you, what thank
have ye? for even sinners do the
same.
39, And it ye lend to them of
whom ye hope to receive, what
thank have ye? even sinners lend
to sinners, to receive again is
match.
35. But love your enemies, and
do them good, and lend, never de-
spairing; and your reward shall be
great, and ye shall he sons of the
Most High: far he is kind toward
the unthankful and evil.
This law or principle of Christian
love 1s enforced in a fivefold way:
first, Jesus gives various striking
modes in which this love manifests
itself .(vs, 27-30); he then shows
what common definition can be
gathered from these instances
,(v. 31), and how this love is dis-
tinct from other kinds (vs. 32-35);
he explains that it is a love akin
to God's way of loving (vs. 32-35);
to God's why of loving (vs. 35, 36);
and lastly. he shows that this prin-
ciple Of love should influence all
our judgments. "Love" here denotes
the love full of intelligence, come
prehension, tut corresponding pur-
pose; it sees all the malevolence
and wickedness of the enemy, feels
his stabs end. blows, but this only
fills the loving heart with the one
desire and aim to free its enemy
tram his hate, to rescue htni from
biz sin, and to save his soul.
The Measure of Men
36. Be ye merciful, even as your
rather is merciful, 37. And Judge
not, and ye shall not be judged:
and condemn not, and ye shall not
be condemned: release, and ye
shall not be released; 33, give, and
it shall be, given unto to you; good
measure, pressed down, shaken
together, running over, Allan they
rive unto your bosom. For with

with love cannot see. Our own
faults blind our consciences until
we do not see them at all. Jesus'
hdmonition to us is to proceed to
conquer our own faults first.
In all his teachings Christ is
seeking to get at the character of
men. Of course lie continually talks
about conduct, but he never fails
to emphasize the truth, one way
or another, that conduct is only
the natural, Inevitable outcome of
character.

Farm .Notes .. .
Balance Manure
With Phosphate
(By B. Leslie Emilie)
Superphosphate forms the base
of nearly all commercial fertiliz-
er mixtures and supplies the
much needed phosphorus in which
most soils are naturally deficient.
Turnips and corn are. heavy
phosphate feeders and when giv-
en a fairly liberal application of
manure may require only super-
phosphate as a supplement, Farm-
yard • manure contains notable
amounts of nitrogen and potash
but very little phosphorus, for
the reason that animals retain and
utilize this subsanco in the build-
ing of their bony structure, and
phosphorus is also an important
constituent of milk and muscle.
Superphosphate in Stable
Inspecting a series of turnip
plots on the Dominion Experi-
mental Farm, Nappan, N,S,, dur-
ing a field day in September,
visitors were told by Mr. Smith
Hilton that 100 lbs. of 20% su-
perphosphate is worth one ton of
turnips, meaning that with the
addition of 500 lbs, of superphos-
phate per acre the yield was in-
creased by five tons over manure
alone. On this occasion a shrewd
farmer from Pictou County step-
ped forward and stated his cwi-
viction that the 'proper place to
start the use of superphosphate
- is in the stable,
• • Now, this farmer was not talk-
ing through his hat but knew
whereof he spoke, having like
many others proved the merits of
granular superphosphate in the
stable. The practice has been
preached for years but may be
new to some. It consists of
spreading the phosphate in and
on both sides •of the gutter, at
the rate of one or pne and a half
pounds per animal per day, after
cleaning out the `suable.
The superphosphate, when used
in this way, performs several
functions. Not only does it add
the phosphorus which ordinary
manure lacks but absorbs and
holds valuable nitrogen that
would otherwise be lost, thus en-
riching the manure in botli
these plant food • substances, Fur-
ther,.phosphate ,in the stable,
shed, pen or poultry house re-
duces flies, absorbs malodorous
gases and disinfects the premises.
More Pork, Veal
Less Beef Eaten
In Canada During 1939 -- In-
crease In Total Meat Con-
sumption Here Last Year
Was Two Per Cent
Consumption of meats in Can-
ada in 1939 per head of popula-
tion is officailly estimated at
118.9 lb., an incretxse of more
than two lb. per head over the
1938 consumption. With refer-
ence to individual commodities,
more pork, veal and lard and less
beef were consumed in 1939 than
in 1938. The consumption of
mutton and lamb remained un-
changed, The consumption' of
pork per head of population in
1939 is placed at 52 lb., an in-
crease of 4.2 lb. on the previous
year; veal consumption rose from
11.8 lb, in 1938 to 12.1 lb. per
head in 1939, and lard at 5,8 lb,
per head showed an increase of
nearly 11,E lb. over 1938.
. Beef consumption declined
from 51.6 lb. per head of popu-
lation in 1938 to 49 lb, per head
in 1939, Although the total out-
put of cattle in Canada in 1939
showed an increase over that of
1938, exports of cattle during
1939 were almost double those of
1938. The consumption of mut-
ton and lamb at 5,8 lb. per head
of population was -the same as in
1938, which in 'turn was one ib.
less than *in 1937.. It is expected,
says the official report, that dur-
ing the next three or four years
consumption of beef will continue
to decline. While the numbers of
cattle are continuing to increase
on Canadian farms, the present
tendency is to withhold stock
from market for the purpose of
building up herds, Pork consump-
tion during 1940 will probably be
even greater than in 1939,

REBUILDS ARTERIES
A major discovery in . surgery,
a method of rebuilding arteries
by using sections of veins as
spare parts, was reported last
month by Dr. Gordon Murray, of
the University of Toronto.
This kind of new internal pip-
ing, long sought by surgeons, is
made possible by a new drug,
heparin, which triples the length
of time that human blood takes
to clot.
Heparin, an extract of liver,
WAS developed by a group of

ALCOHOL AND ANGINA
An injection of pure ethyl al-
cohol into the neck to cure the
pain of angina pectoris, one of
the serious forms of heart disease,
was described by Dr, Samuel Per -

It gave complete relief in 40
per cent of the cases tried, and
partial relief in another 86 per

North American bird life faces
Ss worst threat in the last three

Feathers of more than 90 species

"The remedy is fairly simple for

"There are legal feathers, and any

Moving Mountains
That the Alps -are moving rap-

mile front, causing the plains in
front to sink into the earth under
their irrestible weight, is the
opinion of an eminent scientist.
The same thing is happening to
the Himalayas, which are creep=-
ing south. But although In geo-
logical time they are moving
swiftly, the actual rate is only a
.few feet each year. All the time,
the world is undergoing change.
The Thames was an underground
river 10,000 years ago, for a for-
mer bed has been discovered six-
ty feet below the present one,
So a million years hence inhabi-
tants of this planet will not be
able to recognize their territory
by looking at maps of to -day.
Everything will be different, for
a river like the Mississippi shifts

Prevention of
Throat Infection
Thymol, a substance allied to
phenol (carbolic), but with 25
times the antiseptic strength of
the latter, is strongly. advocated
as a gargle and mouth wash in the
prevention of raw sore throats
and of tartar of the tooth in per-
sons subject to these ailments.
In every mouth left undisturb-
ed for some hours—for example
during sleep — a varying amount
of white substance grows on the
,tongue and other mouth surfaces
and accumulates around the
teeth. This consists of a thread-
like plant called leptotlu'ix, in the.
meshes of which may be numer-
ous germs and cells. This plant,
if not removed, will grow ra-
pidly and form a hard tartar on
the teeth which can be removed
only by .a dentist's sharp instru-
ment. Such removal is necessary,
otherwise the teeth and gums will
suffer.
HELPS KEEP TARTAR AWAY
People otherwise meticulously
clean in their habits habitually
neglect their teeth; the brush,
used in a perfunctory rub, is al-
lowed to become filthy and pos-
• sibly does more harm than good.
Many persons are cohtinually
troubled with a raw sore r•throat,
aggravated in some cases b'y
smoking particularly if cigarettes
are used; in these individuals a
systematic use of a saturated so-
lution of thymol in water as a
mouthwash and 'gargle, -is a most
effectual preventive.
HOW TO PREPARE IT
The solution is prepared as fol-
lows: the crystals of thyme',
placed in a muslin bag, are put
into a wide-mouthed bottle and
cold water added, Soon there
will be a saturated solution of
the drug. From time to time
more cold water is added until
all the crystals have disappeared.
Then more crystals are added.
Thymol is inexpensive, An ounce',
costing no more than a few cents,
will make nine gallons of solu-
tion.
If the solution appears to be
too strong, that is if it "bites"
the tongue or throat, water may
be added, When ready, the so-
lution is used as a gargle and
mouthwash several times a day.

Grandfather was one man who apprec-
iated potatoes and on that planting
day he managed to tell everybody on
the (aim about them. His favorite
story concerned when he first settled
In the bush here and spent one win-
ter on corn meal cakes and boiled po-
tartoes with salt ,but no butter,
"You take a potato and out It up
and plant. it In the moist earth," he
-- ONTARIO., would say, as he helped himself at
dinner -time to another plateful, "and
you got your seed back ten -fold and
the finest food that it's possible to
have come to your table,"
Just after dinner Grandfather would
light his pipe and picking up the hoe
from where it stood by the garden
gate he would stroll out to the potato
patch. With smoke eddying up from
his pipe he would hoe and carefully
tend to the tender young plants which
were just springing up through the
eart'h's cruet. Later on, as the weeds
became more troublesome, he would
spend more time in the patch and, by
the "bug" season he was downright
busy, But the potato patch was
grandfather's kingdom and woe betide
anyone who strayed in there without
h19 permission,
Grandfather was prouder of the po-
tato blossoms than any florist could
.be over a rare flower. He was an ex-
pert on the color of blossoms and he
would predict the crop from the size
and colour.
How we delighted to tease him In
early summer about the neighbours
having new potatoes. The first time
wo did fool him, and he went right ov
er to Neighbour Hiegina' place and
demanded to see their new 'potatoes.
That anyone could, have new potatoes
before hien was unthinkable. The net -

PHIL OSIFER
OF LAZY MEADOWS
(by Harry J. Boyle)
"Potatoes"
,Potatoes are one thing on the farm
that seem to be taken for granted.
Such was not the case When Grand-
father was alive. In the bright, warm
sunshine of the early Spring we cut
them up. Sitting on the upturned, nail
keg at the door to the root house,
basking in the sunlight and deftly slic-
ing the potatoes so as to have an eye
in each piece, Grandfather was his
happiest,
With fingers grimy and stained lie
would pause to illustrate his yarn by
waving the stubby, sharp knife wtth
which he was cutting the "paddies."
-• rr.r.WWw+wrK.'r irr. .40480 *6.0
&bours looked surprised, and Grand-
father 'tanned U8 that night . , not
Bard, but just enough to work the
edge oGt his temper. Of course, he
was sorry afterwards and we got nic-
kels for candy.
How proud he was that first day
when he came in with the old granite
dish, tilled with new potatoes. He
washed them and put them in the pot
and boiled them himself with just the
proper amount of salt, He beamed
with happiness that day and made a
special trip In to the village to tell
the crowd at Murphy's General store
. , in a very casual way of course
, "We had a n'Ice meal of new po-
'tatoes today,"
Grandfather anxiously scanned the
skies for rain in those last few weeks
before the stalks wilted. He dreaded
what he called the ''plague on the ta-
ters," but i can never remember his
crop having it.
On picking day he allowed us In
the patch. But he always took the
plow handles for the plowing out of
the potatoes. Ho hated to see potatoes
sheared by a plow, because to him
that was a waste of time and effort.
Grandfather stored tine potatoes.
There had to be just so many In
eadh bin ... and he put so many in
the pit , . . carefully protected by
straw before the earth was thrown in
on top of them. As spring approach.
ed he could be found "snagging" the
potatoee and picking them over . .
and as ho used to say, "Just sort of
enjoying myself,"
The potato crop at Lazy 'Meadows
was poor this year. Somehow I think
that if Grandfather had been here
weather notwithstanding , , , there
would have boon a good crop,

HOG CHOLERA
A MENACE!
Active Co-operation of every Ontario
Farmer is Necessary to STAMP IT OUT
ONTARIO has a really serious outbreak of Hog Cholera, This deadly infectious
disease of swine has reached alarming proportions in the counties of Essex and
Kent, with smaller outbreaks in Lambton, Elgin, Norfolk and Haldimand. If the
disease is not controlled it is certain to spread to neighbouring counties. Every
precaution must be taken. The Ontario Department of Agriculture is actively co-
operating with the Federal Department of Agriculture and farmers in their efforts
to stamp out this disease.
If the spread of Hog Cholera is not checked NOW, every pig raiser in Ontario
stands to lose. Only the immediate and wholehearted co-operation of every Ontario
farmer will stamp out this menace to the hog industry.
•1- HOW TO PREVENT HOG CHOLERA
The Departments of Agriculture strongly recommend every pig raiser to take the
following precautions:
1 Confine all hogs to pens or yards that have
been thoroughly cleaned and disinfected
with an approved disinfectant.
2In centres of heavy infection, it poesible,
I keep hogs away from straw stacks as this is
a place usually frequented by birds such as
starlings, sparrows, and pigeons, which may
have come direct from an infected barnyard.
Destroy as many pigeons, sparrows and starlings
as possible.
3 Keep dogs out of the pig pen. Keep your
s dog under control in the daytime and tied
up at night. Keep stray dogs off your farm.
4 Burn any dead pigs or bury them so deeply
▪ that stray dogs will not dig them up.
rt
•
5 Keep all doors closed and protect the win•
▪ dowe so that no doge or birds can enter the
Pens.
6 Do not visit neighbour'' hog pew
nor allow neighbours to vWt your'.
7Always have a pan of strong disinfectant
' 'solution Just inside the door so that anyone
entering the pen can disinfect Ids shoes, AND
INSIST ON ITS USE.
8 Keep livestock trucks off your farm —if you
r have stock to ship, load up at the end of the
lane. Disease -bearing refuse dropping from the
bottom of the truck might easily be carried to
your hogs.
111 9. DO NOT PUTACNAQE " PDBDER ROCS"
except from dependable sources within a
clean district.
10 Isolate newly purchased breeding stook
for at least three weeks before permitting
them to run with hogs already on the premises,
11 In areae where hog cholera exists be
extremely careful about breeding outside
sows with your boar,
12 Where hogs are -serum treated, follow to
the letter Instructions given by the Vet-
erinary Inspector of the Federal Department of
Agriculture.
13 Feed only carefully balanced rations'.
Well-fed hogs have the strongest rade.
lance to disease,
Hog Cholera is highly contagious and can spread very rapidly,
The above precautions, put into practice, TODAY, will do
much to prevent the spread of this deadly disease.

The install of the Christian Chinese
and their attitude toward their gine•
mles is so wonderful. They are look-
ing forward to a new, day and are
planning and building for it. They
are turning more to education and re-
ligion and never before were there so
many people aslcing for baptism,
IMlss Jean Murray, of Hensall, gave
a very stirring Temperance address
and brought in the following resolu-
tion;
"We, the Womit's Auxiliary So-
ciety of the United Church met in
Roys United Church, Huron County,
Ootober 10th, 1940, unanimously re-
solve that,—
Whereas our Empire is now facing
tlio greatest crisis in its history, and
the fate of our civilization is depend-
ent upon the outcome of this struggle,
and that the utmost efficiency Is ne-
cessary for t'hd persecution of this
struggle and that
Whereas the use of alcoholic bev-
erages
eeerages Impairs such complete effic-
iency and diverts to wasteful and in-
jurious purposes, foodstuffs impera•
tire to the sustenance of human life
and lowers the moral and physical
stamina of our soldiers,
We do humbly petition the govern-
ment to enact immediately total pro-
hibition for the duration of Cho war."
It was moved that this resolution as
read by Miss Murray bo signed by the
President and, Secretary and sent to
Hon. J. G. Gardiner, Minister of Na-
tional War Services, at Ottawa, Car-
ried.
Mrs. J, Ferguson,. Chlselhurst, waa
appointed to aot on the nominating
committee: Mrs, R. Batten of El1m-
ville, for the Finance committee and
Mea, (Rev,) Chandler, of Kippen, to
be the delegate from this Section to
the London Conference Branch,
Mrs, Chandler, convenor of the
Courtesy and Resolution Committee
presented a very comprehensive reso-
lution of thanks In which no one was
forgotten. Resolved that we renew
our consecration' and, each one take
her part sorlous'ly knowing that oniy
thus can our work go forward,
• The closing words were given by
our' President, Mrs. McKenzie, of Sea -
forth, who stated 1t takes ;700,000 a
year to carry on our Missionary work,
wo have 350 mieelonarles, =1,40 a min-
ute keeps all our work going. Tho
deficit of last year means the loss of
5,720 minutes of work.
After singing "God Loves the World,
Do You?" the vice-president closed
the conference with the benediction.

Samuel Kerr, of Brussels, was guest

ourselves on our democracy, but our

flict would, not be won by force of

KEEP OUR LAKE TROUT
Fish, like other creatures, must
be adjusted to their habitat or
their race will not survive. A
warm water kind cannot long ex-
ist in cold water and one that is
used to plenty of oxygen will die
if placed in a stagnant pool. Our
lake trout is a good example of
this, It must have cold water,
well aerated, for normal life but
as it lives in our lakes, which
warm considerably at the surface
in summer, it has had to go down
into the depths for part of the
year. Often the deep waters lack
oxygen so we find that the trout
live at a medium depth where the
water is cool and yet above the
stagnant bottom,
Protect Spawning Fish
Lake trout are allied to the
speckled trout. They grow large
and 20 to 30 pounders are not
uncommon. Their main food is
herring and whitefish, though
perch will be taken where these
first two are lacking. These
food forms can live in the depths
and in cold water so the trout
finds food throughout their habi-
tat. The angler, to catch these
fish, must use a heavy spoon
and a copper line, sending the
lure down to where the fish live.
Lake trout are found throughout
Ontario in all suitable waters
and are the mainstay of a con-
siderable commercial fishery in
the Great Lakes,
The conservation of the lake
trout depends on the protection
of the spawning fish and on the
stopping of over -fishing, They
spawn on gravel or stony bars
late in the fall and the poachers
use gill nets to catch then over
the shoals. Such nets are de-
structive and can take almost
every adult fish in a lake if set
throughout the fall. So, protec-
tion against poachers should be
the first step, then, we must see
than only a lmiited number of
trout are taken from each lake.
Long continued angling is as de-
structive as poaching, shorter
season and lower bag limits are
necessary if we wish to preserve
our lake trout.

THE W A R •WEE K --Commentary on Current Events
MAIN BATTLE DEVELOPS
IN THE MEDITERRANEAN
The "Battle of the Mediterran-
ean" was rudely elbowing the
"Battle of Britain" off the front
pages of the world's newspapers
last week, as the scene of war
shifted southward and it became
evident that for the moment the
main Axis drive was .for control
of the eastern Mediterranean and
the Near East. The great show-
down test between the seapower of
Britain and the air power of the
Axis was about to be witnessed.
After Greece, What?
The Italian Invasion of Greece
was seen as but one item of a com-
prehensive program, the first parts
orf which had already been execut-
ed — the occupation of Rumania
and Italy's preparation for a trans -
Egypt drive on Suez. Other steps,
involving the remaining Balkan na-
tions, were expected immediately
the outcomo of the Greek campaign
was decided. General Goering's
newspaper, The Esselte'. National
Zeitung, predicted the next Axis
step would be an attempt to sever
British connections with Europe,
Asia and Africa so that no port
in those continents would be open
to British warships (ambitious un-
dertaking!) Other sources said
that France and Spain would also
have a role In this plan,
The Axis' new grand strategy
undoubtedly was agreed upon by
Hitler and Mussolini at their meet-
ing In Florence which followed a
lightning trip by Hitler down into
France to confer at different points
and times with Franco, Laval and
Detain.
Hitler's Greatest Gamble
Wats Hitler embarking on the
greatest gamble of his career? If
he could break Britain's control of
the Mediterranean he would be
able to pile upon her a disaster
second in magnitude only to the
smashing of England itself — so
great that it likely would determine
the outcome of the war. Failure
to achieve this goal, however, after
his inability to crush England by
bloody bombing and invasion, could
just about write his finish.
To By -Pass Turkey?
The only other power (aside from
Britain) conceivably in a position
to aid Greece was Turkey, a large
part o2 whose army was last week
massed against the Bulgarian fron-
tier. But several factors militated
against Turkish fulfillment of her
mutual defense treaty with Greece.
For one thing such action could
bring Nazi troops storming into
Turkey from Bulgaria, and pre-
cipitate a general Balkan war; for
another thing, Soviet Russia's pol-
icy of non-involvement in war
might operate against Turkish par-
ticipation, }3ut supposing the Axls
powers didn't attempt to take the
Dardanelles, by-passing Turkey in-
stead by way of the Dodecanese
Islands and Syria ... would Turkey
allow herself without protest to be
surrounded, and her dominance of
the entire Mosleni world challeng-
rd? If Turkey moved, the entire
picture would change- overnight.
Moscow Meditates
For the timo being, Moscow was
silent on the Balkan situation. But
pre -occupied, as diplomatic rumors
which trickled through suggested,
with consolidating the Russian posi-
tion on all fronts. A new agree-
ment with the Axis powers was
seen as not unexpected; but more
likely to come would be the signing
of a non -aggression pact with Ja-
pan. (Moscow obviously was not
forgetting for a moment that Jap-
anese troops still lined the Soviet
Manchurian border; that between
80 and 90 German divisions faced
the Red Army along the eastern
European front).
U.S. - Britain • China • U.S.S.R.?
That Stalin might be Induced to
join an anti -totalitarian bloc con-
sisting of Great Britain, the U. 5,
and China was the considered be-
lief expressed last week by Chin-
ese circles in Singapore. These
eamo sources declared th‘t Stalin
would be interested in seeing the
German and Japanese positions
rendered desperate by such a coal-
ition t..gainst them. Positive knowl-
edge was claimed, said New York
Times correspondent Hallett Ala -
end, that China's Minister of Fin-
ance was in Washington for the
principal purpose of convincing the
United States of the advisability
of joining such a coalition.
U. S. Aid To Britain
Although the United States had
by no means yet declared war on
Germany, Secretary of Commerce
Jesse II. Jones reported last week
that the U. S. had shipped $780,-
000,000 of goods to Britain during
the first year of the war; and
from New York it was learned that
the IJ. S. was sending warplanes
to Britain at the rate of nearly
500 a month, and that the number
was increasing ... With the elec-
tion over, anything could happen.
Before Parliament reconvened at
Ottawa this week, it was learned
from Washington that arrange-
ments hag been made for an Im-
mediate survey and other prelim-
inary engineering work in the St.
Lawrence Seaway project
Sad Losses At Sea
'Twas a sad day for Canada when
news came tlirouglr that 1110 Ca11-
adian destroyer Margaree, aitch
replaced the ill-fated Fraser, had
been sunk in the North Atlantic
with the loss of 140 offic: . s and
men; and that the Canadian luxury
liner Empress of Britain had gone
down as the result of enemy ac-
tion, with 46 missing.
The Week In Canada
Official and semi-official an-
nouncements on .miscellaneous
platters of varying interest to the
Canadian public featured the \rock:
that young farmers whose mllita:ay
training was postponed in October
wpuld respond to the call Novemb-
er 22 ... that Canada was send-
ing 400 -motor vehicles a day to
the United Kingdom , , , that Ot-
tawa was keeping a wary eye on
tho Frond' Islands in the gulf of
St, Lawrence, St. Pierre and Mi-
quelon , , , that internees and
members of illegal organizations
were ineligible for public office in
Canada ... that Canadian soldiers
were holding an important sector
of the English coast, right in the
front line , - , that Canadian troops
might be sent to the Near East
at a later stago in the Battle of
the Mediterranean . , . that Can-
ada had enough 'grain "to meet all
Britain's needs for threo years" . .
that private buying must be cur-
tailed in Canada if the war pro-
gram was not to antler . .
Election Soon In Ontario?
Tho Ontario political pot, quiet
for some time past, was last week
seen to be simmering again, There
was a good deal of talk in Ottawa
that Premier Mitchell F. Hepburn
intended going to the people some-
time within the next year (re-elect-
ed to power in 1937, the Ontario
Liberal administration does not
have to call a vote before the sum-
mer of 1942). Within the past
month three Dominion Cabinet min-
isters have visited Mr, Hepburn

were getting busy last week .. .
Yukon's Many

There are orchids in the Yu-
kon — the Siberian, a large pur-
plish pink bloom with white Spots
and a rare White Orchid—all to
be found in great variety beneath
the "slide" near Dawson. Our

Journal, is Martha Louise Black,
former Member of Parliament,
whose second book, "Yukon Wild
Flowers," has just been publish-
ed. Co-starring with her in its
preparation is her husband, Hon.
George Black, K,C., M.P., who
personally took the hundred pilo-.
tographs which illustrate the vol-
ume.
"Within 20 minutes' walk of
the heart of Dawson," writes Mrs.
Black, "even a fairly careless ob-
server of Nature's handiwork
may gather at least a hundred
varieties of flowers, ferns and
mosses.
"Front the beginning of March,
'when the days begin to length-
en,' we Yukoners are alert to dis-
cover the first sign of the Pasque
flower or Northern Crocus thrust-
ing its furry nose through the

ed with snow or ice. These brave
flowers vary in shade from deep-

Like the silly, selfish, irrespon-

Weeping Statue
In the ruins. of Arbroath Ah -
bey, in Scotland, is the headless
statue of a Scottish king, and at
his feet lies a lion similarly de-
faced.
. This is William the First, called
William the Lion. He founded the
abbey in memory of his friend,
Thomas. Becket. Here the king
was buied, and during the Re-
formation his statue and that of
the lion were beheaded.
It is a strange fact that, if the
weather 'is going to he wet, the
stone over the region of the
king's heart always becomes
shiny and 'moist, and sometimes
water actually trickles down.
That is why it is called "The
Weeping. Statue."
Household Hints
Cocoa stains should be soaked
in Bold water and then dipped in
boiling water containing borax,
'on no account use soap for them.
Coffee stains, on the other hand,
should be covered with a little
egg yolk mixed with glycerine
e)ul then washed in warm water.
Tat' stains on ' washable things
can be smeared with lard, scraped
off and the washed, use ether
for any non -washable material
except artificial silk. -
* * *
Try using a spoonful of vine-
gar in the water you soak your
greens in instead of salt, it not
only kills the inhabitants, but
t.,akes them drop to the bottom
of the bowl instead of just dy-
ing inside the leaves. Apply a
little ammonia to- your chrotnin•
unt-plated articles if they get dis-
colored in bad weather, . then
polish with a duster,
* * *
Save any accidents- by tack-
ing strips of emery paper to the
steps of your household steplad-
der, it gives you a firm, good
grip for the feet. • -

Puts your new pair of stockings
on, and draw a line with colorless
'nail varnish. just _under the sus-
pender top and. over the toe joint

But if you have to 'darn a toe or
