Wawanosh Boy's Disap- appearance Proven Myth A story last weekend, telling of the disappearance ofRoss Radford 15 - year -old son of Mr. and lira, Norman llladford of Bast Wawanosh, turned into a mythical misunderstand- ing when, after a search had begun, in the Stratford -Woodstock arca, his father diselased the fact that the boy was visiting with friends in Wood- stock.

We understand that hc'."n Mr. Leipc and Mr. R,ed•mond, reeves of l:ullel and East Wawanosh, have their eye o the \Vardenship this year, and for the reason, will probably be seeking ri election.

I-1krington, and daughter, Patsy, of London, were the unfortunate victims of ad accident, in which all suffered injuries, with the worst being sustained by Mrs. Har- rington, who is still confined to a St. Thomas hospital. The party had been visitors with Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Stewart, now in St. Thomas, and were just setting out for home, having pro- ceeded not more than a few blocks, when they ran into a steel post. At this particular point there was a road branching off to both the right and left, and the steel post was the begin- ning of a fence which narrowed the road straight ahead into a subway, through which ,lir. and Mrs, Holly man intended to go, Unfortunately, the car windows were somewhat steamed up, and the dark pavement also helped to obscure the view, so the obstruction was not seen until the cai' struck the post. Fortunately for the occupants of the car, Mr. ldollyman was driving slowly, so that no one was thrown from the vehicle, brat the fact that the windshield was broken lead to tine belief that someone must have. bit 11. Mrs. Hollyncan received num- erous bruises, and Frances apparently cane in contact with some .solid part of the car and t'he impact drove her two front upper teeth completely out of sight up into her gunms. Upon ex• amination it was thought that the teeth hadrbeen knocked out, but since, they have appeared, and it is hoped, that they will gradually conte back in, to place, Mr, Hollyman was thrown forward on the steering wheel with considerable force, and received chest bruises, while his sister, Mrs. Har- rington, was so badly shaken up that.l she will be a patient in the hospital l for at least two weeks. Icer little daughter, Patsy Harrington, was also bruised somewhat. The entire party was taken to hospital for examination. but all with the exception of Mrs. Har- rington were released that night. ' The front of the car was extensively dnina,7,ed and had to be left in St. Tho- mas for repairs. Mr. and Mrs. Holy When and Propels proceeded to London by radial, where they were met by a car from Doherty Bros. garage, and brought 'home. The accident, although an unfol't:nn- me 0110, might easily have been worse, and both Mr. and Jirs. Hollymnn pressed relief that it was no worse.

J. 1%icKay to give relief to the suffering Formosans, and gain thea: confidence and good will, when 'n( went to that field as a young mission ary. The method consisted of reliev ing pain by extraction of aching teen followed by Christian teaching.

A short reading on Home, Schoo and Church: I know three things must always be To keep a nation strong and free One is a hearthstone bright and deal One is a ready 'heart and hand To love and serve and keep the land; One is a worn and beaten way To where the people go to pray; So long as these are kept alive Nation and people will survive God help them always everywhere The home, the school, the place of prayer. was given by Mrs. \V. Moffitt. The guest speaker was Mrs, Rev Fowler of Bluevale, who 'held the keen interest of all as she told of her work among the Chinese in the lovely Cos. mopolitan City of Vancouver. "Al merchants the Chinese excell," she said. "Their shops are beautiful cleanly and attractive, but they spend little money in Canada, and the mer are bort gamblers.

THE WAR •WEE K—Commentary on Current Events 'Quake, Italian Defeats Queer Germany's Plans Bad Ile\VS Collie to Adolf Hitler's ears last week, some of the most discouraging since he failed In his plans to subjugate Britain by mass air attack. The reported collapse of a full-fledged Italian offensive against Greece, the sinking by the British tleet air arm of half of Italy's capital ships, the earthquake in Rumania, meant that the big Axis drive to gain control of the eastern Mediterranean was stalling , and that, in the meantime with German -conquered peoples growing restive and U. S. aid to Britain in- creasing daily, a hundred things could happen to spoil forever any chances of Axis dreams coming true, Balance In the Balance Although the military situation *al over the world remained com- paratively stable during the week, diplomatic activity on all fronts reached the frenzied stage. No one knew what might come out of the German -Soviet talks in Berlin; anx• bus was the kibitzing done by other powers (Britain, U. S., China, Turkey) who fe: red that Russia might join the Axis' "new world order" and upset the balance against them. Japan Awaits Outcome In the Far East Japan awaited the outcome of the Hitler -Molotov conversations before launching a new push into Indo-China. (Shang- hai dispatches said there were in- dications that the Japs were pre- paring for a new adventure, pos- sibly an attempt to take the Neth- erlands East Indies), Commenting editorially on Molotov's visit to Berlin, the Tokyo newspaper Yo• miuri said that further "Russian - German co-operation inevitably would weaken the British -dominat- ed "old order," and that Japan was driving for the same goa.1 in the Orient. Can Depend On U. S. Embattled 13ritain fought on bravely. The Ministry of Ilome Se- curity announced that 6334 civil- ians had been killed and 5659 in- jured in October air raids on Britain. Even as this news became public It was admitted in London that the submarine was definitely replacing the bombing plane, as tr primary mena.ce, and that loss of shipping, loss of lives in the mer- chant marine might soon constitute the war's greatest problem. But Britons knew by last week that they could rely absolutely on the United States of America. Half the United States' war material output was already pledged in be- half of Britain — Mr. Roosevelt had lost not a minute after the elections in making himself clear. Britain could expect ships next, then credits, it was believed, The red-hot question in the U. 5. was coming to be: Shall we get Into the wu.r, or stay out? But in many quarters the view was held that America was really in already .. • without knowing it. . • War had only to be declared! Canada's Decisive Role In the Dominion, Prime Minister Mackenzie King told the people of Canada of the staggering cost they must pay for the war — our share was running at the rate of one billion dollars a year in October, he said — and informed the coun- try bluntly there were darker days ahead. The Dominion of Canada, be declared, would one day play the decisive role in the British Em- pirt+'S war against t,,ggression, • * • Sidelights On Main Issues BRITAIN: Last week Britain sent all available troops to the Near East , , , the Government advanc- ed $26,000,000 to the Greeks , . . reports indicated the Government of Eire had refused to give Britain the use of naval bases on the Irish coast , . , the Loudon News Chron- icle said that Lord Halifax, British foreign secretary, might soon re- sign and be succeeded by Anthony Eden, secretary of war * * s PRANCE: Rumors had General Maxime Weygand deserting the Vichy Government and helping to unite French colonial forces against the home government , . .

C. TONER, Ontario Federation of Anglers (NO, 17) ONE TREE PER ACRE The Royal Society of . Canada has set up a committee to survey the resources of the country, and as I wrote last week, the first re- port of the committee has been inade by Dr, J. J. O'Neill of Mc- Gill University. Dr, O'Neill took for his subject the exhaus- tion of our minerals and the ne- cessity of providing jobs for the people who will be thrown out out of work by this eventuality, suggesting that a comprehensive plan be adopted to deal with this, after study of the resources has shown the best methods. The Clay Belt Agriculture cannot replace mining in our northern areas for much of the soil is useless and the severe climate is a handicap. The Clay Belt of the central north is about 700 miles long and about 1i0 miles wider. This is good agricultural land but new crops that will not be harmed by early and late frosts must be found and introduced, Even so, con- sidering the whole north it must be realized that the Clay Belt is just a small section of a great sterile desert as 'far as agricul- ture is concerned. It has been estimated that nearly one quarter of Canada is covered by forest growth and that one quarter of this (150,- 000,000 acres) bears saw timber; the balance being young growth or trees only suitable for wood pulp or firewook. Two thirds of the saw timber is in British Col- umbia so that the rest of Canada has, on the average, one tree per acre suitable for timber, Over most of the mining district pulp wood is the only forest product, Lake Fisheries Canada has 186,000 square miles of fresh water lakes, other than the Great Lakes, in its in- terior. Means should be found to utilize the fisheries of these lakes. Fish grow more slowly in the north and it is an easy mat- ter to delete such waters. Be- fore exploitation goes too far we should know how many fish can be taken from a lake in a given period without harming the stock. These are only a few ideas on a vital subject. Dr. O'Neill was speaking to the geologists but his address should be known to every conservationist, A divorce was granted in New York State to a woman because her husband chewed glass and razor -blades to upset .her, He had been a "circus freak." as his next ambassador ...

The white fur or velours hat is another expression of style inter- est in off-whites for winter. * * s New amcng colors featured in sweaters are bright shades. Fash- ion feeling for orange has led to the recent addition of tangerine. Two other important new addit- ions are sage green — a good sweater color, since it combines well with browns, grays, beiges, naturals, and patterned tweeds of thi.; season — and a bright pur- plish navy which can be worn with every other color and is live- ly enough to wear even, with black.

CHAMBERS "YOUR CHRISTMAS CAKE" Last week in the discussion on overseas parcels and what to send I gave you a recipe for a fruit cake, which is a splendid recipe to use for those at home too, if you wish a rich cake. In contemplating your cake preparations, you must first de- cide whether you wish it to be a cake which can be kept for an indefinite period. If so it must have plenty of butter to insure moistness, The fruit also must be the best type for the same pur- pose, A little brandy added, if you wish, will prevent any moulding. Many use applesauce or cooked dried apples, which does give a cake a very splendid flavor and is economical, but it is apt to mold and will not "keep" long. I find a little corn syrup added also assists in leaving your cake moist, especially the light fruit cake type. If you have had difficulty in this type of cake Apron in Two Gay Versions A'tt ` a) 3 ]son e.,., .. • •.. 1 As, By ANNE ADAMS Of course, you want your ap- rons to look pretty and gay a; well as efficient. Pattern 4370 by Anne Adams is the perfect answer — it's quick to sew, too. Mace a bib -like ycke, or extend the apron -front up to the neck- line. Make the full skirt with a straight or pointed hem, perhaps adding smart pointed pockets. See how the joined -together back treatment keeps the straps firmly uln. Pattern •1370 is available in sizes small (32-34), medium (30- 38) and large (40-12). Small size, view A, takes 1% yards 36 inch fabric and 21 yards ric-rac; view B, 1 !4 yards 35 inch fabric and 2% yards ruffling.

POLICY ON NEWSPRINT FAVORS CHICAGO TRIBUNE PAPER MILL While the question is important as to how, and when, the Abi- tibi paper company is to be re- organized, another question of groat public interest in Ontario and Quebec is whether or not the governments of those two pro- vinces will continue exemptions from the rule calling for spread- ing of production equally among all the- paper mills in the two provinces. This spreading of production, or "pro -ration" was instituted by government authority a couple of years ago in order that every mill town would have some business, instead of a few being busy and a number being shut down entire- ly. The justification for govern- ment interference in this _busi- ness is that the raw material of the paper mills is derived alrnost entirely from crown lands leased to the paper companies. Before pro -ration, a suicidal sales policy In the industry was denuding the forests without adequate return to any public or private interest concerned. The industry hasbenefited from pro -ration, according to most authorities, but a grave weakness in the policy is that the Ontario government countenances certain exemptions, Most people would say that pro -ration should apply to all factors in the indus- try. Exemption was initially claim- ed by, the Ontario Paper Com- pany, which is owned outright by the Chicago Tribune. The excuse for the exemption- claim is that the entire output of the Ontario Papel Company goes to the Chi- cago Tribune and its affiliated New York , News. Just what this las to do with spreading employ- Witty mploy- STOPPED QUICKLY Wttty uUtsady and itis Inuit% Betiost d►arpsl�h proves 11" menet' badt ment among the mill towns of the two provinces will be obscure to most , observers, But the Tribune's exemption became a fact, And with this ex- emption In force, certLin other mills have had fairly, good ex- cuses not to complywith the government's order. Thus the granting of one ex- emption has in some degree null- ified a government policy which was designed to help employees of paper mills in towns remote from communities where other work .would be normally obtain- able, • HAVE • YOU HEARD?

Lost Element Found What he claims to be the last of the world's missing known elements completing the list of ninety-two which science has been trying to fill in since 1789, has been discovered by a Swiss radiologist, Dr, Walter Minder, of the Radium Institute in Berne. He calls it Helvetiunl, and says he isolated the element by ra- dius disintegration, securing a specie no bigger than one 10, - 000th of a milligram. "The quantity so far," he ad- mitted, "is too small to make practical experiments on possible uses of the new element," but ho suggests that Its properties would perhaps be discovered first in the U.S.A., because larger amounts of radium are available there, DOUBLE A� OK�ET` Nervous RestIes Girls!

Public Health Can Shape A Nation Public health has become a dom- inating factor in determining the destiny of the individual and tl:e nation, and it i; logical that in the midst of war, attention should be directed on the ehaelth conditions of the civil population, Dr. Grant Fleming of Montreal declared in a recent address, Reviewing the progress in the control, of smallpox, scurvy, chol- era and similar diseases which by persistent work had been render- ed almost unknown in Canada, Dr. Fleming urged that similar per- sistence he applied to such present day scourges as tuberculosis. Go After Tuberculosis "Infant mortality," he said, "quot- ing Sir Arthur Newsholme," is the most sensitive index we possess of social welfare." Out of 229,000 ba - hies born alive in Canada in 1939, 13,900 did not live to see their first birthday and of this numbere, 7,000 did not survive for one month. In addition, he said, there had been 6,000 stillbirths and 967 mothers' lives were lost in childbirth. These figures, he said, could be interpreted in two ways, as an en- couraging improvement over con- ditions of former days, or as an impetus for action to avoid need- less waste of life. Without any question," he added, "Canada can save the lives of 500 mothers and of at least 6,000 babies, Should Be No Typhoid "In 1939 we had 109 typhoid fever deaths in this province, which would indicate an incidence of over 1,000 cases, not one of which should have occurred." Milk is the most important single of food used in the home, Dr. Fleming continued, and when con- taminated is "as dangerous to in- troduce into the family as a live bomb. Nevertheless, it is true that raw milk, which is always poten- tially dangerous, is regularly used by many people who flatter them- selves that they are intelligent."

In other words and according to fisheries department experts, Canada has a good market for caviar in the United States. If Ontario production is up as production is reported to be in Manitoba, the Dominion will get at least $7,000 in United States money to use for war. buying. Caviar usually sells for $1 a lb, and this year prices are rising, Two factors enter into this tasty situation; First there are the prospects of a 3hertage for caviareaters in the U.S. because the war has interfered with im- portations - from Russia. Second, Manitoba expects to ship to the United States this year more than 2,400 pounds of the delectable little fish eggs, 900 pounds more than last year. Last year Mani- toba shipped 1,512 pounds and Ontario sent 4,870 pounds to the United States.
