BASS CULTURE
The raising of young base is
one of the most difficult prob.
lems in fish culture, • for unlike
the trout or the whitefish, the'
basses cannot be stripped of their
eggs as this process kills the, par-
ent fish. Fishes Odell spawn in
:schools are of such a nature that
their eggs and Itern), flow freely
from the body when ripe, but the
base must build a nest, come to.
gether in pairs, and spread the
egg laying period over several
days. Apparently, one reason for
this is that the eggs of the -female
do not ripen all at the same time.
Since this is so we must bring
the adult bass together in ponds,
leave them to pair naturally, and
leave the male bass with the nest
for several weeks. This can best
be understood if 1 explain the
way in which the basses repro-
duce. In natural waters, when
they,warm in the spring, the male
bass selects a site protected
against wave action and to some
extent, from natural enemies. He
clears the ooze from this site by
fanning with his tail and lower
fins, leaving a cleared circular
area of gravel. This is the nest.
Hatching of Young Bass
When the nest is completed, if
the water temperature has reach-
ed 65° the male drives a female
over the nest and a few of her
eggs are extruded and fertilized
by the male. This is repeated a
number of times until there are
several thousand eggs in the
gravel of the nest. Then the
male mounts guard, driving away
all other fishes including the fe-
moles. He watches the eggs for
several weeks and when they
hatch guards the young for some
t i me,
The young at first are very tiny
and live on the egg sack which is
still attached to their bodies. In
a week or so they have grown
considerably and have absorbed
the remainder of the yolk. They
are now ready to feed and rise to
the surface. The male bass scents
to know that his job is finished
and he drives into the school
scattering them in all directions.
This is why we find young has
in July scatteredall through the
shallow waters if the hatch has
been successful for that year.

THE WAR•WEEK Commentary on Current Events
BALKAN FRONT IS STAGE
OF MAJOR WAR DRAMA
"People of the Empire
should be profoundly grate.
ful that in the Nazi path
Greece and Yugoslavia have
become active obstacles. But
the chief obstacle to Nazi am•
bitions is still Britain . .
The threat of invasion of her
own • island has not passed;
that danger will grow as the
spring advances . . The
Battle of the Atlantic, yet to
be won, is the most vital
struggle of all."—Prime Min.
later Mackenzie King.
* *
At the start of the tremendous
war drama in the Balkans, an in-
itial series of triumphs for the
German military machine in both
Yugoslavia and Greece appeared'
all but inevitable.
Hitler Must Act Fut
Far from inevitable, however,
(wrote Edward Bomar of the
Associated Press) was it that such
victories as the early capture of
Belgrade and the overrunning of
the Yugoslays' richest areas would
be followed by the smashing of
all obstacles to the Nazi drive to
the oast. "Only the verdict of
fateful battles to the soulb
could decide whether Hitler's gen-
erals would be able to match in
the Balkans the quick victories
won in the Low Countries and in
France last year," Mr. Bomar
continued, in ono of the clearest
analyses of the situation made
last week. "They are forced by
necessity to try to execute in a
hurry Hitler's injunction to smash
the dangerous new British -Greek -
Serb alliance and drive the Brit-
ish forces from southeastern Eur-
ope. With United States aid in-
creasing steadily though slowly,
time is no ally of the Nazis
Germany is faced with the neces-
sity of a quick decision to avoid
the alternative of a long struggle
with its perils that Turkey and
,even Russia might join the foes,"
Most military observers saw in
the Balkan campaign the major
part of an attempt to wrest con-
trol of the entire Mediterranean
from Britain and to win the war
this year. Another part of the
owe drive was the new Nazi
campaign in Libya which might
develop into a drive to close
the Mediterranean at Gibraltar
front the south (inetead of from
Spain)—with or without the aid
e
of the idle French Army in Mor-
occo.
At Turkey's Back Door
But Germany could, never con-
quer • the Mediterranean unless
Turkey were first put out of the
picture, either by military con-
quest or by diplomacy. The pro-
Axii coup in Iraq last week plac-
ed Turkey in. a doubly dangerous
poeition—German air bases could
DOW be located at her back door.
Jt was believed that Hitler would
shortly demand that Turkey be-
tray her alliances or be herself
attacked, In the latter event,
there was no question that Turkey
would defend herself with all the
force she could muster. Last
week though still non -belligerent,
Turkey was helping the anti -Axis
allies in more ways than one,
chief of which consisted in keep-
ing the Bulgarian artny immobil-
ized. (British quarters hinted last
week in Istanbul that Turkey
might declare war soon. They
suggested she would remain on the
defensive, but could permit Brit-
ain to use Turkish air bases and
to move warships through the
Dardanelles into the Black Sea.)
U.S. Approaches Zero „Hour
In Washington last week, the
opinion of most observers was
that April was likely to be. the
month for events which would
send the United States into the
war, It was thought that the
U.S,, if any ruptures in foreign
relations were made, would break
with Italy first, then Germany.
Before another month was up, ob-
servers said, the American na-
tion would be very close to the
:date of actual belligerency — a
state of war.can and may be es-
tablished without formal declara-
tion. The future war role of the
United. States was just about at
the zero hour;
Matsuoka to Moscow
• Japan's Foreign Minister Mat-
Buoka left Berlin "suddenly". last
week for home, having been en-
tertained in two Axis capitals to
several exhibitions of fireworks
that went "pfftl" (Italy's Ionian
Sea disaster in an engagement
with the British Navy and Yugo-
slavia's stand against Germany).
En route back to Japan, Matsuoka
stopped off in Moscow again for
an important appointment rein-
tive to negotiation of a Russo-
itIpalle3C non -aggression pact. Ilia

was watched very closely..by the
British, who, according to foreign
military observers recently re-
turned from the Far East, be-
lieved that if Japan Were success-
ful in concluding such a pact she
would start a land, sea and air
attack on Hong Kong.
"Waiting Period" at End?.
In the Dutch East Indies, too,
authoritative circles were of a
similar mind. There the view wax
that the "waiting period" In the
Far East would shortly -come 170
an end and that concrete action
toward Japan's aim of a -"new
order" in Asia would be exped-
ited. Reports that Thailand would

pen the crisis in the Paific, cen-
tering on Singapore, appeared to

CHAPTER ONE
Beside the mailbox, bearing the
name of Harry C, Thomas, stood
a` young girl of some nine or ten
years. She whistled shrilly and two
other girls of about her age cane
out of the shrubbery,
"DId'ya Ma give you a dime for
leo cream, Harriet?" asked one.
"I was lucky even to get out,"
replied Harriet 'l't!lomas, "Here
comes the ice cream man. '1'11
handle the negotiations."
An elderly, weary man, driving it
decrepit car, stopped at her hail,
He glared at them resentfully.
"It's no use. My boss says there
ain't no such thing as an ice cream
wagon with charge accounts."
"I got another proposition, Mr.
Green," said Harriet. "My two
friends hero have got dimes.
'They're willing to buy two ice
creams for cash, if I get one free."
"Oh, no!" said the driver.
"Let's go to Hoxey's ice cream
parlor," said Harriet to her come
.paniolls. They had gone but a few
feet when Mr'. -Green called:
"Wait IL minute! They each got
dimes?"
' "Right! They buy for cash—and
I get ono free for bringing the bus -
'nese."
"Three ice creams for twenty
cents," Mr. Green figured mentally
for a moment. "All right." He dish-
ed up three ice creams and the
three little girls began eating
them. "Come, where are • the
dimes?"
"Mine's home," said Harriet's
stooge, Emily, gulping the rest of
the leo cream,
"And mine's in the—"
"In the bank, 1 sugipose," Har-
` riet, in a chagrined voice, inter -
i •ru,pted Anna Belle, her second
stooge. She nodded and Harriet
' hastened to forestall Mr, Green's
'wrath. "They double-crossed me,
too, .Joe. I'm only the middle man."
Sister Mary's Upstairs •
"Sure, I know. The middle man
of all the trouble I've ever had on
this street!" said the iuseused
i sweet vendor.
"Harriet!" called Mrs. 'Phomas,
"Harriet!" the intonation caused
the smell girl to (hide her ice cream
• under her dress,
"Well, this time you kept your
promise!" smiled Mrs. Thomas.
' "Your dress is just as clean as
; when you put it on. Ituat upstairs
and wash your hands . , Why,
what's the matter, dear?" The little
girl was twitching as though Shit
by a spurt of ice cold water,
"Nothing, mother, It's turned a
little chilly, I think."
"Chilly? Aren't you feeling bell?
• Why, your teeth are chattering!"
"I'm all right. I'll wash up, like
you said." •
"13ut darling, are you sure?" She-
; pressed Harriet close. "I must take
your temperature, Why, it is chilly_
all of a sudden!" Stepping back
to look at her daughter, Mrs. Thom-
as saw the chocolate ice cream
oozing through the child's dress.
"We gotta face it, Mom. Things
just have to happen when I'm
around!"
"Yes, I know," sighed Mrs.
Thomas. ."Upstairs with you!
Change everything — down to your
skin, And tell Mary father'll be
ammo any minute, so we'll have
dinner as soon as she can coax
herself away from. the mirror!"
Nearing the bathroom, Harriet
heard her sister Mary's voice. She
,Stopped and listened. Mary was a
.grown young. lady with two steady
beaux. The tone In her voice pro-
mised something interesting to Har-
riet.

name Mary's voice, "but you've got
to give me time to think," After a
pause, she continued: "I • . . I
really hadn't regarded you in that
tight." Another pause, "I really
• never thought of you in that way."
Then again: "It's a very serious
queston you've asked mo • . , It's
not that I don't regard it as an hon-
or . ,. . Marriage -is an important
matter. A woman can't—a. girl
can't just say yes ms no as dimplyes
as all that."
"Let me ine Mary," said Ilarriet.
After some hesitation the door was
opened, "You all alone?"
"i thought I heard you talking
to some one , , , I guess I was
wrong. You better hurry, Blom says
It's nearly time for dinner."
i\lrs, Thomas and her second
daughter, Evelyn, aged seventeen,
were busy about the dinner when
Ilarriet, in a clean dress, appear-
ed, "I know something I won't
tell—and it ain't two midgets in a
peanut shell!"
"Harriet, how many ,tinges do 1
have to tell you not to spy on your
sisters?"
Talking to Herself
"The last time you • said you
weren't going to tell ale again!
Mary's gonna get married!"
,"Mary!" cried Mrs, Thomas am-
azed. "How—how do you know?"
"I heard her talking in the bath-
room, so I listened."
"You shouldn't listen to people
talking."
"If I don't listen when they are
talking when am 1 supposed to
listen?"
"Well, never mind that. Who did
Mary say she was going to marry?"
"She didn't say. Her'e's Pop!"
Harriet ran to the door and sprang
into Mr. Thomas's arms. "Gee,
Pop, I'm glad you're home,"
"Are you, baby?" he said, smil-
ing fondly.

Fashion Flashes
* * *
Slips and petticoats for spring
AM colorful in prints, dots, strip-
es, floral prints and dots, more
bold in outline and in color mix-
tures, while the range of pastels
is used in dots against dark
grounds, navy, black, deep red . .
The shops show candy striped
taffeta petticoats , ; , dotted taf-
feta slips . as well as bright
colors in taffeta slips and petti-
coats, with the following given
preference in the monotones:
Dusty rose, deep pinks, opaline,
tea rose, light and dark blues,
bright greens and black.
* * *
Slimness with movement is ex-
pressed in pleats in skirts, with
wide box versions noted, also in
concentrated front fullness, with
soft gathers and fine tucks re-
gistering. Frequently fullness de-
velops from below the waistline,
from a section suggesting a yoke,
with this same:: curved or Pointed
outline repeated in the bodice, in
a shoulder yoke.
* * •
New jackets are sometimes
boxy, sometimes easily fitted, and
skirts show definite approval of
pleats, but always with accent on
smooth hiplines.
* * *
Separate dresses have an im-
portant look, sometimes all-over
tucked, with novelty tuckings,
and especially attractive in sheets,
extending from neckline to hem,
and the finest sort of tucks make
decorative scroll designs on crepe
afternoon dresses. The twin-
_ print idea is curried out in cos-
tumes with the sheer print veil-
ing the crepe.
* * •
The necklace silhouette; hats of
shimmering plastics; •sonibrel'os;
wide, off -the -face brims on. wool
lace crowns; plaided taffeta hats
are seen.
Greasy Pans Should
Be Least of Worries
Washing greasy pans- need not
be a painful job for the house-
wife. Pour out the fat while the
pan is still hot, then fill the pan
with hot, soapy water and allow
to soak until dishwashing time.
If the; water has then become
cool and 'bits of grease cling to
the pan, refill with hot water, let
it boil up on the stove for a min-
ute or two, then wash in strong
soap suds in the regular manlier. '
Rinse in cleat' hot water and dry.

main.) wool was made from Bot-
any Bay.
Relaxed Knees
Help Carriage
. Stiff, Awkward Leg Muscles
Mean An Ungainly Walk
"Stiff, awkward legs,--partieu•
larly in the region of the knees—
make for traceless carriage," says
Nadine Gae, attractive little danc-
ing star, "No woman can stand,
sit, walk or dance gracefully if het'
leg muscles are tense."
Miss Gae thinks that relaxat:on
exercises are the answer to this
problem. Here are directions for
a routine that she advocates and
which she does regularly:
Lie flat on your back on the
floor with ankles about a- foot
apart. Try to relax the entire body
as much as possible. Now, without,
bending knee, but without stiffen-
ing it unnecessarily, lift right leg
about a foot off the floor, then let
it tall, Repeat, lifting left leg and
then letting it fall to th'e. floor.
To keep heels from getting bumped
during this exercise, place a thin
pillow on the floor under them,

FOR SLIM WAISTLINE
Always remember to think of
your legs as springs for your
body," the dancer concludes. "Don't
let your torso sag against hip
joints, Keep the upper part of your
body up and away from the lower,
half, This will make your 'waistline
slimmer and your carriage more
attractive."
Women Like Warmer
Air, Science Finds
Science has proved a fact which
men have suspected for a long
tune—that women like the room
temperature considerably higher
than is comfortable for the men.
F. C. Houghton, director of the
American Society of Heating and
Ventilating Engineers' research
laboratory, spent a year recording
the reactions of persons under
different temperature and heating
conditions to prove the conten-
tion.
The reason, he said, is obvious.
Women just don't wear as many
clothes.

A Spring Riddle
What conies in spring,
A welcome thing,
But doesn't ever stay?
Upon its back
A shall black cap.
Its fuzzy coat is gray.
It grows'a-pace,
And in a trace,
Some yellow dust is there.
In springtime's sun,
It has begun
'J'o curl its yellow hair!
Then off it drops
And never stops
To bid a fond adieu,
I hope next spring
The same soft thing
Will visit us, don't you?

It's The Fastest
Of All Things
The fastest thing on this earth
is the gyroscope, some types of
which whirl round at 47,000 revo-
lutions a minute, This means that
any point on the circumference
is moving at 55.8 miles a minute!
The principle of the gyroscope
has been known for centuries, and
many boys own toy gyroscopes.
It was from one of these that
Elmer A. Sperry, inventor of the
Sperry Gyroscope, got his idea.
Gyroscopes are used mainly in
mono -rail trains, air liners, and
huge sea -going steamships, and
they range in weight from 60 lb,
to more than 100 tons. Those in
huge liners are installed in a
special room and are looked after
by an expert, because they in-
crease the speed of the ship, pre-
vent rolling, and prevent sea sick -

Household Hints
Sew tape to the four corners of
your ironing blanket and tie them
firmly to the table legs; it saves
any annoying wrinkles on the
blanket.
* * *
Alake sure the feathers won't
work through your new pillow
ticking by waxing the inside of
the cover, ironing it with a hot
iron rubbed over beeswax and
ironing the beeswax every time
before pressing the material.
♦ * J
Straighten bent knitting need-
les that have done overtime for
the troops by plunging them into
boiling water or holding them in
hot steam, straightening with the
fingers and then leaving in cold
water to harden.
* • 4
The quickest way to blanch al-
monds is to put them in cold
water, bring it to a boil and then
put then into cold water again
at once; the skins will rub off in
a twinkling.
* * *
If you slop hot fat on to the
kitchen table or floor, dash cold
water on it at once; this sets it
before it has time to penetrate
the wood and slakes it easy to
scrape off later.
* * *
A lump of sugar put into the
teapot with the tea prevents it
from staining the tea cloth; any

THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time. --The day. of Pentecost
occurred as far as we are able to
judge, on Sunday, May 28, A.D.
30. The events recorded in the
third and fourth chapters of Acts
took place in the summer of A.D.
30,
Place.—The City of Jerusalem..
We should come away from the
'study of this lesson with a new
conviction concerning the divine
origin and the greatness of the
Church of Christ, We should be
7reminded that loyalty to the
Church and to the Christ of the
• Church is the great privilege and
obligation of every true believer
and of every consecrated disciple.
Birth of the Church
Acts 2:1. "And when the day
of Pentecost was come, they were
all together in one place," The
Feast of Pentecost was the second
of the three chief Mosaic festi-
vals. It fell on the fiftieth day
after the second day of the Pass-
over. It celebrated the comple-
tion of the grain harvest. Special
offerings were made, and two
leavened loaves of wheat bread,
significant of the finished har-
vest, together with two. lambs as
peaceofferings, were waved be-
fore the Lord. If passover re-
minded the Jews of their redemp-
tion from the land of bondage,
Pentecost celebrated their pos-
session of the land of promise.
2. "And suddenly there came
from heaven a sound as of the
rushing of a mighty wind, and it
filled all the house where they
were sitting. 3. And there ap-
peared unto them tongues part-
ing asunder, like as of fire; and
it sat upon each one of them,"
Probably the great noise was to
, be taken as a symbol of mighty
power, whereas the tongues of
fire would be symbolic of purg-
ing and of dedication to a proph-
etic ministry, somewhat compar-
able to the experience of Isaiah
eight centuries before, 4. "And
they were all filled with the Holy
Spirit, and began to speak with
other tongues, as the Spirit gave
them utterance." This ability to
speak in foreign languages not
previously learned was merely a
temporary endowment granted
for a special purpose. It was one
of those miraculous spiritual gifts
which marked the age of the
apostles. The gift of tongues was
exactly the preparation needed by
the disciples for the task of wit-
nessing to the throngs who had
gathered from all parts of the
world to observe the feast.
Book of the Holy Spirit
The Book of Acts has often
been called the Acta of the Holy
Spirit, and truly so, The Spirit
of God is referred to seventy
times in this one book. It is He
who is the energizing power, the
sure guide and teacher of the
Church of Christ, not only for
the days of the Church whose his-
tory is recorded in this book, but
so' all the subsequent years of
the Church's history it every
land. The dominance of the Holy
Spirit in the life of a believer is
not ordinarily to be tested by the
presence of any special gift, such
as the gift of tongues. One who
3s obedient to his Master is grant-
ed the ability to do the will of
She Master, for the "fruit of the
Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-
suffering, kindness, goodness,
faithfulness, meekness, self-con-
trol."
Salvation Only In Him
Acts 4:8, "Then Peter, filled
with the Holy Spirit, said unto
,'tbent, Ye rulers of the people,
and elders,
9. If we this clay are examined
toncerning a good decd one to
an impotent man, by what means
.this man is made whole;
10. Be it known unto you all,
and to all the people of Israel,
that in the name of Jesus Christ
of Nazareth, whom ye crucified,
whom God raised from the dead,
even in him doth this man stand
here before you whole.
11. He is the stone which was
eet at nought of you the builders,
which was made the head of the
corner.
12. And in none other is there
ualvation: for neither is there any
other name under heaven, that is
riven among men, wherein we
must be saved.
13. Now when they beheld the
boldness of Peter and John, and
1 had perceived that 'they were un-
learned and ignorant men, they
marvelled; and they took knowl-
edge of them, that they had been
with Jesus.
14. And seeingthe man that
was healed standing with them,
they could say nothing against
It.
15, But when they had com-
manded them to go aside of the

council, they conferred among
themselves,
16. Saying, What shall we do
to these men? for that indeed a
notable miracle hath been wrought
through them, is manifest to all
that dwell in Jerusalem; and we
cannot deny it.
17. But that it spread no
further among the people, let us
threaten them, that they speak
henceforth to no man in this
name,
18. And they called them, and
charged then not to speak at all
nor teach in the name of Jesus,"
The Disciples Stand Firm
The Sanhedrin were compelled
to acknowledge that the miracle
had been genuine; but also real-
ized that if these men kept on
preaching, soon everyone would
believe in what they had denounc-
ed. The Sanhedrin's conclusion
was that the disciples should be
threatened and commanded to
speak no more in the name of
Jesus. No doubt, they would be
allowed to go out and preach if
they would leave out the name of
Christ and what Chi ist meant.
19. "But Peter and John answer-
ed and said unto them, Whether
it is right in the sight of God t�
hearken unto you' rather than
unto God, judge ye: 20. for we
cannot but•speak the things which
«e saw and heard,"
What boldness these apostles
manifested! Standing before this
awesome body of men, they
,frankly declared that even though
they knew it Aright involve their
immediate death, they positively
could not bo kept from speaking
the things which, they had seen
and heard, namely, the teachings
of Christ, the Resurrection, Thou-
sands and thousands of men have
said these words since, many of
then suffering death as a conse-
quence.

WOR's woman's commentator Bess-

the nation's foremost woman Jour-

which she likes bitter: radio or

Irish, and there's nothing I like
better than to talk."

Gardening .. .
ARTICLE No, 7
A few special implements will
make gardening more interesting
and less arduous. These aro not
expensive. For ordinary digging
both a spade and a digging fork
have a place. The first is ideal
for turning over soil in the
Spring or for breaking up sod.
The fork, lighter and quicker to
operate, is excellent for cultiva-
ting anytime through the season
and especially for breaking up
soil that has been plowed or spad-
ed sometime earlier. For killing
weeds, thinning, cultivating large
vegetables and shrubbery, a small,
not -too -wide hoe, well sharpened
is the ideal tool.
To Prevent Jungles
One can do wonders with
flowers alone, but still more
amazing results will follow where
we combine flowers skilfully with
grass, winding walks, shrubbery
and bits of stone -work. In this,
combining, however, we must
take care not to reproduce a
jungle. A little preliminary plan-
ning and a rough sketch drawn
approximately to scale will help
wonderfully. Flowers and shrub-
bery must not be so crowded that
they become spindly and weak,
Little flowers must not be bid-
den by tall things like full size
marigolds, cosmos or zinnias.
Beds must be so arranged that
we can keep down weeds and re-
move fading foliage. Above all
we must remember that . unless
we are very skilful, it is best to
use a fair amount of lawn as a
foreground for our flowers.
Lawns are almost vital in cre-
ating.'
re-
ating' garden pictures.
Feed the Lawn
Thin lawns badly miXed with
weeds almost invariably have
poor soil, Sometimes only a lib-
eral application of commercial
fertilizer or well -rotted manure is
necessary to restore rich green-
ness, Well fed, well watered
grass will usually crowd out
most weeds, though it will ap-
preciate some help from the gar-
dener who does not mind spending
a few hours with a sharp weeder.
Food Takes Third
Of Average Wages
Canadian Families Living In
Cltles.Spend 31.9 Per Cent.
Of Income on Edibles
The average Canadian family
living in the city—just plain Mr.
and Mrs. 'So-and-so with from
one to five children—spends 31.9
per cent. of its annual income for
food.
For clothing it spends 12 per
cent.; shelter, 19.2; personal care,
9.1; education and vocation, 1.6;
transportation, 5.3, and welfare
and gifts, 2.4,
These facts and a vast quan-
tity of relative information are
shown in the first family -living
expenditure survey ever compiled
in Canada and recently issued by
the Dominion' Bureau of statistics.
RESULT OF SURVEY`
The survey, which began in
Januar .1938, on the initiative
of the late Norman Rogers, then
minister of labor, was conducted
in 12 cities, compiling 45,000 re-
-cords on 6,252 families, coming
within certain limitations which
made them "typical average fami ,
lies,"
An 'analysis of .the, deet and
savings of the families under sur-
vey , brought out that. -36,9 per
mit. of the total number showed
increased debt; only 37 families
broke even and 62 per cent, of
these average .earners save stoney

Q. How can I clean painted

A. Use two ounces of borax in
two quarts of water and one tea-
spoon of ammonia. ;•Use about
half this quantity to each bucket
of water, and no soap will be re-
quired.
Q. How can I make use of dis-
carded, umbrella .ribs?
A. .These ribs make good and
lasting. supports' for' trailing
flowers. If they are painted a
soft green, they will hardly be
noticed in the gat.aen.
Q.. How all I make an econ-

can be mudo out of a pint of
vinegar boiled e • with onquart ,of
myrrh. '

Cameras Not Guns
Shoot Air Target
Ordinarily Trans -Canada Air
Lines uses models of its aircraft
'forwindow display purposes. At
least one of them has a now pur-
pose in life as a target for anti-
aircraft practise by the military.
An Essex County regiment has
borrowed one to shoot at. For-
tunately for the model, camera
guns will be used and not the real

New Long Look
Seen in Sweaters
The longer fitted sweater is a
rival now for the very short one,
'rhe new .type has been slowly
making headway in influencing
the sweater trend until now the
movement is definitely to longer
fitted types. '
I1any of the brief sweaters that
last year would have been waist -
length •.are -'now inching down to
the e hips. You will find them
in daytime and evening sweaters,
either smoothly molded or with
waistline nipped in by ribbing or
finer stitches and reinforced hero'
by elastic threads .to hold them
in, Pullovers with such nipped -in
waistlines or with. draliing at the
hips and high necklines zipped at
back as well as the long semi -
folded skirt ,pullover are especi-
ally new -looking;
Many "Pigs In Pokes" Sold at Auction
The sale of unclaimed baggage and articles. found on Canadian
Pacific property provided an interesting interlude. at Fraser. Brothers'
auction ,rooms, Montreal, recently, . Articles of.. this nature from as far
'a9 Calgary to the 'west and Halifax to the east. When a certain period
has passed and it is still unclaimed, the law requires that'it all be sold
at auction, the worthless and the valuable.. Buyers bid for it blind and
pay quite high prices on the chance of finding something really valuable.

What Science
Is Doing
SUPER -GIANT STARS
Dr, Ralph E. Wilson has work-
ed out a new astronomical yard-
stick by using rare super -giant
"C" type stars.
It will servo to determine dist-,
tances to these stars, among the
largest in the sky, and to nearby
star systems. .
Only about 400 of the stare
have been found, the Mount Wil-
son. observatory astronomer said
last week. He used 246 of them
in his studies.
"They range in color from red,
orange, yellow, whitish -yellow aid
white to blue," said Dr. Wilson.
"They are distinguished from
other stars .by the abnormal in-
tensities of the hydrogen lines
and by the sharpness of the oxy-
gen, nitrogen, iron and .,silicon
lines in their spectra."
NEW PRODUCTS HASTENED.
The speed with which scientific
research is translated into com-
mercial products is demonstrated
in a report made by Arnold E.
Pitcher, general manager of the
planting department of the du -
Pont Company, in which he dis-
closes that three-quarters of all
the plastics that the company ex-
pects to produce during the pres-
ent year have originated in the
laboratory in the last forty-eight
months. -
POOR DIET AND CANCER
Evidence.' showing how poor
diet can become one of the causes
of cancer was reported last week
in science, by five Memorial Hos-
pital (N.Y.) physicians.
The cancers were in animals,
but were important because lately
physicians have reported in hu-
mans occasional cancers that
seemed to be helped by diet
changes, such as high vitamins or
high proteins,

the most prosperous of Canadian
redskins. They have about $2,-

capital is used year by year in

"Look here," stormed Brown
to the real estate agent, ."about
that riverside bungalow you sold
me,"
"Anything wrong?" asked the
agent.
"Wrong! Wrong!" exclaimed
Brown, "Tho other morning we
woke up and found that the place
had floated two miles down the
river."
"H'm," said the agent blandly
enough, "that's a good stroke of
luck. The taxes are much lower
down there."
"Now perhaps you'll wanta
shave?" queried the barber
who had just given five-year-
old Bobbie his first profes-
sional haircut.
Bobbie (after feeling of
his face); "I guess there
wouldn't be enough shavings,

; Modern
Etiquette
BY ROBERTA LEE
1, What is the correct expres-
sion to use when thanking some-
one for a courtesy?
2. How can a person disting-
uish between genuine hospitality
and that which is affected?
3. Is it correct for the bride
and her attendants to arrive at
the church about a half-hour be-
fore the ceremony is to begin?
4. When a young man wishes
to ask a girl for a date, is it all
right for hien to say: "Are you
going to be busy Wednesday eve -
'ming?"
5. Isn't it improper for a card
player to begin arranging his
cards before the entire hand hits
been dealt?
6. When a dish is passed to one
at the table by a servant, should
one say "Thank you?"
Answers
1. "Thank yciu." Avoid the*
expressions `"Thanks" and "Much
-obliged." 2. A person with , the
least intuition can quickly dia.'
tinguish this. As Washington
Irving said, "There is an emana-
tion from the heart in genuine
hospitality which cannot be • des-
cribed; but is immediately -felt,
and puts the stranger .at once at ;
his ease." 3, No, they should
arrive promptly on the moment
set for the ceremony. 4. It would!'
be much better to ask her for the
date, It is her privilege to accept
or say that she has an engages '
meat. 5. Yes; this is crude. Ai
player should wait until every-
body has been dealt his entire
hand, 6. It is not necessary.

Now is the time to heed the old adage about an
ounce of prevention being better than a pound of
cure, and start putting a small amount of Wam-
pole's Hygeol in the drinking fountains to prevent
- your baby chicks dying off with white diarrhea.
Oftentimes the, chick is carrying the germ when
hatched, therefore, treatment should start with the
• first drinking water. (Don't use metal containers).
• Hygeol is a dependable preventative and remedy for
white diarrhea. Geta 35c or 60c bottle here today.
