In' a recent issue of the Standard I
read with muck interest excerpts from
a letter to the Editor from Mr, William

pleasure to hear from my old Nen

and I awn sure many of Mr, Phillips'
friends felt the same.
In the mane issue an article appear-
ed "A Short History of Blyth" written
by Miss Doreen Phillips. This "history

must have been done before the article

A delegation front Blytlt attended
the annual meeting of the Huron -

Thursday night, when representatives
from Clinton, Exeter ands Goderich
were also present. Due to the fact
that many of last year's entries
were not represented. frothing deft
nite came out of the meeting. but
from information available it would
appear that. prospects for anythhtp
like a successful year were mallet
dint. Exeter was the only town win
were in a position to state that ties
would definitely have a teams. Most of
Tithe other towns represented had suf,
fered so badly from loss of player!
that they felt it would be impo3sibit
to field anything that would look like
a competing ball team.
The amalgamating of players troll
adjoining towns was discussed and 11
was thought that this might be pos
sable. Representatives from the din
ton Club said that they would be glee:
to release any of their players to the
Blyth Club in an effort to form e

Curolus Linnaeus, the cx-the-
ologlcian, who was the author of
the modern scheme of classifica-
tion of all plants and animals,
lived and did most of his work in
the early part of the eighteenth
century. The book in which lie
outlined' his plan and named the
animals and plants according to
this plan he called "Systema Na-
turao" and was revised by him
many times, We have agreed thnt
our system shall be founded on
the tenth edition of this book and
any names proposed before that
time shall bo null and void.
All biologists and naturalists
must be familiar with the Systema
Naturae for it is the backbone of
their' scientific work, It is writ-
ten in Latin but fortunately for
many of us it has been translated
into English, However,. often
times the naturalist must consult
the original when publishing sci-
entific studies, My Latin is weak
and I have torn my hair many
tithes trying to get the exact
moaning of the great naturnlist's
words. So the moral for my young
readers is to study Latin as ar-
dently as they study the plants
and animals,
Plants and Animals
It is a pity that the same term
i3 used by the scientist for all
living creatures except plants as
is used in common language for
the four -footed hairy animals that
suckle their young, The scientist
divides all animate creatures into
either the plant or animal king-
doms. The plant kingdom in -
eludes the bacteria, the blue scuta
on the water, the fungi and the
biggest of trees. The animal
kingdom includes the microscopic
creatures of the water, the spong-
es, the lobsters and crabs, the in-
sects, the fishes, the , frogs and
minims, the birds and the mam-
mals. It is the mammals that the
ordinary folk call animals but my
readers can readily see the dis-
tinction I have outlined. Ani-
mals, to the scientific mind, in-
clude all living creatures that are
not Plants; mammals• is the term
used for the ttnimals we ]snow in

"THE HERITAGE OF
HATCHER IDE"
• By Booth Tarkington
This new novel front the pen of
Booth Tarkington stands with -
the greatest of his work. Its it ,
bhe famous author of "Penrod,"
"Seventeen," "Alice Adams,"
deals sympathetically, humorous-
' ly with the problems of present-
dil' youth,
Hatcher Ide, the story's hero,
is a' flesh -end -blood young man
whose task it is to make a living
in this day and age, 'to orient
himself in the problems of love
and the general complexities of
existence. He lives in a once -
prosperous mid -western town
which might be any American
town after the 1929 depression
wave broke, His father's busi-
ness is on the rocks; his father's
friends keep up a bold front on
scanty incomes; the world Hatcher
knew as a child is n different
world now, none too cordinl to
young men fresh from college.
The book provides an amazing
picture of the times as well as
telling us the story of how Hatch-
er goes out to meet life and love.

Poison Ivy Preventive
Revealed by Doctor
In New Orleans last week for
a dermatologists' convention, lir.
Bedford Shelntire had this tris to
offer poison ivy sufferers: "Itoil
ivy leaves in ether, evaporate the
ether and dilute the residue with
corn oil, Make up capsules from
thls and swallow them over n
period of months, gradually in-
creasing the doses until you are
taking 10 drops a day. It takes
with most people, immunizing
them,"
Health of Animals
There are 22 railway points in

ing to regulations, all empty

Dominion Department of Agri-
culture, unless the cars have al-
ready been cleansed since last
used for stock. During the year

U.S. FLEET STEAMS NEARER TO BATTLE OF ATLANTIC
As American warships assume their peril -fraught roles of "interested bystanders" in the Battle of the
Atlantic, the projected two -ocean U.S. Navy is estimated at Washington to be four years away from com-
pletion.
Nevertheless naval authorities are pleased by the way in which the shipyards are cutting construction
time. Workmen in the U.S. Navy yards as well as in yards owned by private concerns are driving steadily
ahead as fast as the material is delivered,
A good sample is the 1650 -ton destroyer Edison, now in commission, This vessel was constructed itis 10
months, Some years ago the regular period of construction was 31 months, This now has been slashed
until the average is 15 months,
The two most welcome additions to the navy of course are the battleships North Carolina and Washington,
the •first completed since 1921. They both are 35,000 -ton vessels, Their main armament is 1G -inch guns,
mounted in three turrets, three per turret.- They also carry a heavy battery of anti-aircraft and secondary
broadside guns, They are propelled by turbines doveloping 115,000 horsepower from oil -fired boilers and
giving a speed of 27 knots, Each is equipped to carry three planes.
THE WAR . W E E K --Commentary on Current Events
HIGHEST TAXES LEVIED
IN CANADIAN HISTORY
"We must be prepared for an
extension of fighting over 'wide
areas ... Canada Is determin-
ed to spare neither her resourc-
es nor her manpower . . . "
—Prime Minister Mackenzie .
King.
Never before .in their nlstory
have Canadians been called upou
to make such a tremendous contrt•
button to the national coffers as
that demanded by FInance-Minister
Ilsley ht his Budget address last
weak before the House of Com -
mous. Out of every dollar earned
t`tis year by Canadinu men and
,omen, 45 cents will go out of their
pockets by wey,ot taxes or loan to
finance the war. It provincial and
municipal levies are also taken In-
to account, 55 cents out of every
dollar will be needed.
Hardest On Income
Now and increased taxes design-
ed to increase Canada's tax rev-
enue in 1941-42 to the all-time high
of $1,100,000,000 included: A new
national gasoline tax, upping the
price 3c a gallon; increase in tax
on automobiles valued up to $900,
from 20 to 25 per cent; motion-
piclut'e shows, beer, wine, playing
cards, carbonic acid gas used iu
"pop," clgaret paper tubes, cigau'et
lighters, all pay new or Increased
levies; a 10 per cent tax on all
railway, bus or airplane tickets
costing over 50 cents; tax on cos-
meties, toilet goods, rose from 10
lo 25 per cent. But nothing to the
Budget bit the average Canadian
as lewd its did the increasers in the
defence tax and ttte income taxes—
personal income tax rates were
upped to 15 per cent on the first
$1,000 of luxable income, from the
present. rates of 6 and S per cent,
In Britain's Dark Hour
This Biggest Budget, brought
down at lite end of a month when
the fortuues of Great -Britain had
fallen to one of the,lowest parols
ht her' proud record, mule history
by including provision, for the first
time, of direct aid to Britain, From
$300,000,000 to $900,000,000 was
asked, to assist in fhurncitig Bri-
tish purchases in Canada this year.
Mr. Ilsley's record -breaker fol-
lowed by one day Prime 111tnieter
King's statement to ,the reconven-
ed House in which he declared that
Canada wbuld spare neither her '
resources nor iter manpower in the
forthcoming battle. During the
week, too, more than 5,000 of the
four-month 21 -year-old trainees
were conscripted into the Canadian
army and preparations were made
to draft many more young men this
summer,
Belt Across Atlantlo
But it was largely to the United
States that Great Britain looked
its her hour of direst need, And
last week the President, to aid
Britain by cutting losses of Lamle -
Lend materials shipped overseas
(rumor's said 40 per cent of them
were being sunk), took action
which brought the American ua•
tion "only one step from war." He
established the equivalent of a con-
voy system in the North Atlantic.
As fur as the coastal water's of Ice-
land (a belligerent zoue) the U. S.
navy began sending warships, pa-
rol bombers and in all probability
carrier -based aircraft, to play a
vital tole in the "Battle of the
Atlantic," Tito potential effective-
ness of this whole fru'-flung sur-
face and air patrol in dealing with
Ntizi submarines and raiders was
seen as tremendous, "Red Fleet,"
organ of No Soviet navy declared
Nat. the extended U. 9. naval patrol
in the Atlantic would enable- the
United Slates and Britain to "es-
tablish a solid 'belt from Canada
to Britain, thoroughly- protected
front the air. ,
Words of Cheer
Speaking more hopefully of ' e
outcome of the Battle of the Balk-
ans than navy of itis contempor-
aries, Major George Fielding Eliot,
U.S, military expert said: "The
facts are that the Ilalkan war has
been R net gain for Britain as long .
as Suez and Alexandria be not
lost; that precious time has been
gained, that Germany has been
compelled to use up resources of
which she has none too great a
reserve; and that the islaud of
Great Britain rennnins unconquer-
ed, Nor has anything which has
happened in the Balkans brought
Germany nearer to that conquest;
indeed the reverse is the case. The
war will be won or lost lir Great
Britain and its waters of approach;
It is there that Hitler must, soon-
er or later, face the final show-
down. It Is precisely there that the
Power of the American people can
make itself telt with full force."
Battle of Egypt
Aside from the Battle of the At-
lantic the guestiou of whore
the war would move next its Eur-
ope engrossed most minds here
and abroad. P 1.1 ul a Minister
Churchill's Sunday speech indicat-
ed that Loudon expected the next
Azle stab to come somewhere along
,the Mediterranean, through Tur-
key or Spain. Some experts believ-
ed Hitler's armies would play leap-
frog from one Aegean island to
„another and go at Sues without
touching Turkey, One London
source spoke of the coining engage•
went as the "Battle of I►7gyrpt" and
told the United Press its outcome
might decide whether Japan and
Spain would enter the war as ac-
tive Axis allies. British prepar-
ations for the test included ap•
poimtu-tent of Viscount Gort ae com•
mander-in-chief at Gibraltar and
implied announcement that a sec-
ond Mediterranean mlue field, 600,-
000
00;000 miles square, had been laid to
protect the Dardanelles and Bues,
Reports from Vichy hinted of an
approaching showdown, with IHt-
ler forcing tho Turks to grant him
military right of way to the Per-
sian Gulf of Stuez.
Behind the Turks
Recent developments In the Near
East have led to the assumptiou
that the Turks, when the Hitler -
squeeze finally comes, will be guid-
ed by the wishes of the Soviet Un-
ion, Associated Press correapoudent
Dewitt Mackenzie last week wrote
that Turkey was believed ready to
defy tho German demands if ebe got
the high -sign from the Kremlin.
That this encouragement from Ru-
sin might very well be forthcoming
was seen iu reports of increasing
tension between Germany and the
Soviet Union — 12,000 German
troopa, equipped with tanks and
artillery arrived in Finland, Rus-
sia's nearest northern neighbor;
and the Soviet Union took steps
to regulate strictly all shipment
of goods to Germany, clamping a
bau on passage of any war mater-
ial through the Soviet Union from
east to gest, or vice versa,

WOMEN ON JURIES
It seems strange that so simple
a matter as women serving on
juries should have proven so diffi-
cult for the legislature to reach
a decision upon. While the men
hesitate, large numbers of women
continue in forthright manner to
shoulder hone and public respon-
sibilities, admirably l:crforming
tasks which require the exercise
of knowledge, judgment, skill,
precision and tact. Many have
replaced nen in industry, com-
merce, professions, etc., who have
thus been released for military
service. Many women are doing
work which it was thought only
men could do. Thousands of wo-
men are earning a livelihood for
themselves and supporting de-
pendents and while doing this
are also running their homes,
bringing up children, and in addi-
tion some are active in public
affair's. —Toronto Star

Mother's Day
T0 MOST of us, our first inspirations to face life squarely, to
find and give the best, have come through the teachings and
example of a good Mother.
It is our Mother who by her univearying devotion to her
children has instilled into our minds the virtues of a full and
unselfish life,
All too often as we get older and have to face the responsi-
bilities of life alone, vat overlook the debt we owe Mother. We
do not altogether forget. But somehow, there are so many de-
mands on us) we just take Mother for granted. We know Mother's
love never grows cold. It is there for us to conlmRnd,
Sunday is Mother's Day! let us do something this Sunday
to show Mother we think a lot of her, You will never be able to
pay back all you owe her, But some little tangible token of your
affection will feed the soul . , , your own as well as your Mother's!

who spoke Polish in a group of sus-
pected persons. The agent's identity
being discovered two members of the
Polish onganizaztlou were aset;rated to
"finish" him,
Tha agent was shot In the elevator
of a building near Pulatwska street and
was captured. Tho other committed
in the ensuing turmoil one of the Poles
suicide, Tho former was subjected to
such terrible torture that he revealed
seine information about his group. The
following day a large "battue" was or-
ganized by the Gestapo in the vicinity
of Pulawska street and the 200 youth;
mets and boys were arrested and shot..
Railroads, oil transports from Rus-
sia. military dbjectivos, public utilities
etc. are the focal points of Polish sale
stage,
'Mass. arrests aro the major weapon
which the Gestapo use to throttle
all resistance. Suclt a mass ar'r'est was
held August 12 1940 in Warsaw when
10000 men from 18 to 45 year's of age
were taken from etroots shops cafes
trams and even homes. On September
19 similar arrests were made in the
Zoltbors and Mokotow suburbs of War-
saw. 10000 men were arrested on that
occasion, The majority were sent to
the ill -tanned concentration camp at
Oswiecirnt (Auschwitz).
In January of this year mass arrests
were trade on the 5th tine 11th and the
25th with this difference: women were
also arrested. Tho informant saw a
young woman trying to escape shot
down in col&blood.
More than 400000 Jews are contlned
to the Warsaw ghetto behind the con-
crete. partition which' separated them
from the rest of the city. To all hi.
tents and purposes these Jews are
burled alive. Famine. epidemic's and
lack of medical help and medicine arq
accentuating their conditions.

Then there Is the ever increasing
flow of Wiltshire sides of pork or ba-
con to England. In the year 1932
Canada exported about 20,000.000
poutrds of thisproduct and sit present
we aro exporting 8,600.000 pounds per
week or at the rate of 477,20(1.000
pounds per year. There is also a
heavy export movement of cheese and
eggs. •
Tito distribution of these cornmodt'
ties over the continent at all seasons
of the year is not just done by acci-
dent but requires a great deal of care-
ful planning and organization. In the
first place these commodities cannot
bo handled in orditiary box cars such
as are used for grain, lumber and, the
numerous other non-perishable cone
modities. Refrigerator cat's have to
be supplied and means have to be pro•
vided to keep the cars cool in summer
and warm in whiter, • tach c'rnnmod-
ilty has a temperature at which it car-
ries best and it is the aim to keep
each class of goods at the most desir•
able temperature.
Sonic of the temperatures required
for the various commodities are:
Degre;,s
Apples , 32
Tomatoes , , 48
Pears , 32
Bananas .. f0
Fresh Meat , 36
Frozen Goods , , l:'0
Rapid Frozen Goods , . , 10
Export Bacon . 30
These refrigerator cars have as ice
bunker at each end holding about two
tons of ice each. Directly of er each
bunker there is a hatchway through
the roof. In order to furnish cooling
in the summer. leo is placed in these
bunkers. The Railways have ice
houses aloe: side tracks spaced about
every twenty -Pour hours of running
limo apart. and if car reiuires icing
it is placed alongside ice rouse plat-
form ami, the bunkers tilled.
In winter when artificial heat is re•
quired: portable charcoal heaters are
placed in these same bunkers and
lighted when necessary to produce
the desired temperature in tate car.
Its summer the temperature within
the car is regulated by furnishing salt
along with the Eco. Ice alone will not
produce a teanperatu'e lower than
Chitty -two degrees at the coldest earl
of the car thln ,both; the lowest tem-
perature at which ice alone will melt.
13y addling salt the melting point is
lowered as follows:
When 10 Ib, salt added to each 100
lb. Ice to 31 degeoa above sere.
When 16 lb. salt added to each 100
lb, Ice to 15 degrees above zero.
When 20 lb, salt added to each 100
lb. ice to 9 degrees above zero.
When 30 lb. salt added to each 104

The high-speed salesman had
joined the array, gone into action,
been wounded. For several days
he lay delirious, but eventually
he turned the corner,
On the first day of his recov-
ery he was surprised to see all
the nurses standing around his
bed, offering hint money,
"What's this for?" he asked.
"Why for the radio and refrig-
erators, you sold us while you
were unconscious," they chorused.
Teacher: "Robert, what are
you going to do when you
grow up?"
Robert: "I'm going to be a
grandfather and just sit
around telling everybody how
cold the winters were when
1 was a boy."
One of John's best friends had
lied so he called on the widow

"John and I were friends," he
said, "Isn't there something I
could have as a memento of him?"
She raised her velvety brown
eyes, which a few seconds before
had beon wet with tears.
"How would I do?" she asked.
Brown: if you had $20 in
your pocket right now, how
would you feel?
Hawkins: I'd think I had
someone else's trousers on.
The prisoner was a very tough -
looking customer. He was asked
whether he could read or write.
"I can write but I cannot read,"
was the reply,
He was then asked to write his
name and after he had scrawled
huge letters over the page was
asked what it meant.
"I dunno," said the Mian, "I
told you I can't read."

Coincident with the report from

department officials in Ottawa late
in April were advised work on each

"Men are on tho ground at ev-

a department spokesman said. "We
aro confident all the bases will be
completed during the summer."
Ito said that with the completion
of these seven bases, United States
planes could cross the border at
any point, connect with the trans -
Canada air route and use its beams
and other facilities to Edmonton
where they could swing onto the
Edmouton-Whitehorse route also
provided with all modern facilities
to take them into Alaska.
The Edmonton -Whitehorse route
was decided upon following recom-

the bases are being built by the

Four Main Factors
In Dairy Success
Good Farmers Must Combine
Them to Develop Worthwhile
Business -- Efficiency Is Es-
sential
•
Iu building up a successful dairy
business, states the War Time Pro-
duction Series bulletin "Success in
Dairy Farming," issued by the Agri-
cultural Supplies Board, good farm -
ere pay particular attention to four
main factors—rates of production
of live stock and crops; efficient
u$e of labour; efficient use of cap-
ital including farm implements;
and a sufficiently large output with-
out which low operating costs can-
not be established,
These four factors aro related
and must be combined to develop
a successful farm business, Full in-
formation on the various angles of
management are given in the bul-
letin. It also contains tabulated fig•

Ancient City
Of Salonika
Wars, Quakes and Trade
Highlight of Greek Port
Salonika is described by an an.
(fent writer as, "Tile covered city
crouching on the side of a hill and
touching the sea with her feet,"
Says Ernest D. McCurry in the Kan-
sas City Star,
"THESSALONICA"
This second city of Greece was
of little importance until King Cas-
sandra of the Macedonian lino tools
possession of it, and renamed it
"Tltessalonica" in honour of his
wife, the daughter of Philip, of
Macedon and sister of Alexander
the Great, It was called "Salonique"
by the French,- but the Greeks, in
the interest of brevity called it
"Salonica" which in modern times
has been changed to "Salonika,"
•
OITY OF THE AGES
This city on the shorn of the
Aegean 'Sea is a veritable city of
the ages, and so ancient that the
time of its beginning is lost in
obsourity,
It was the second stopping place
of the Apostle Paul, who in re -
spouse to a call which had come to
him in a night vision, crossed the
Aegean Sea and landed in this city.
Later from Corinth in 54 A.D., he
wrote the first of Itis many letters
to the church which he had found-
ed at Thessalonlca.
MODERN SALONIKA
The city of Salonika is a modern
Babel, not only of languages, but
also of races and religions, cue -
toms and now German by oceupa-
tion, its population is predominant-
ly Turkish, with the Jews ranking
second, and the Greeks themselves
a poor third,

LESSON VI
THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE
HOME REGARDING BEVER-
AGE ALCOHOL
Deut. 614.7; Jer. 35:5.10
GOLDEN TEXT—Train up a
child In the • way he should go,
And even when .he Is old he will
not depart from it. Prov. 22:6.
THE LESSON IN ,1TS SETTING
Time—The book of Deuteron-
omy was written somewhere be-
tween 1450 and 1500 B.C. The
particular chapter here quoted
from the book of Jeremiah was
probably composed about 604 B.C.
Place—The entire' book of Deu-
teronomy is devoted to truth re-
vealed to Israel while She was
wandering for forty years in the
Wilderness. •
The One True God
Deut. 0:4. "Hear, 0 Israel:
Jehovah our God is one Jehovah."
This declaration asserts" that the
Lord God of I$rael alone is
Jehovah the absolute, uncaused
God; He who had by His
election of them made Him-
self known to Israel. 5. "And
" thou shalt love Jehovah thy God
with all thy heart, and with all
thy soul, and with all thy might."
Now, if there bo any single attri-
bute in which the moral character
of the Supreme attains to unity,
that attribute is. •His love. The
characteristic attitude assumed by
Jehovah in Old and New Testa-
ment revelation, and particularly
in the Gospel, is this of a Saviour
from every evil, Well, let that be
the relationship under which we
have learned to welcome, em-
brace, and confide in God through
Jesus Christ; and we shall find
that we have welcome, pure
and boundless love. Those words
of Deuteronomy which our Lord
recited to the scribe and which,
they say, every Jew was expected
to recite to himself morning and
evening at his devotions, form a
most penetrating commentary on
the First Law in the Decalogue;
and you see how they tax lang-
uage to express totality of dedi-
cation on our part to this love of
God, .Every part of every man,
and the whole of every part, is
to be filled with love,
Teach Unto Your Children
6. "And these words, which I
command thee this day, shall be
upon thy heart, 7. And thou
shalt teach them diligently unto
thy children, and shalt talk of
them when thou sittcst in .thy
house, and when thou walkest by
the way, and when thou liest
down,- and 'Heti thou risest up."
Here is a religion which covers
the whole day, which belongs to
every attitude of man. The en-
trance of Divine truth into the
mind and heart, the formation of
habit and the training of charac-
ter, these are not attained by sud-
den and isolated efforts, but by
regular and unceasing repetition.
This is the law of all growth in
nature, and of this law God seeks
to make use in the kingdom of
grace, in dependence upon and
subservient to the power of the
Holy Spirit.
The Loyal Rechabites
The founder of the fraternity
of Rechabites ("Son of Rechab" .
may mean "son of the chariot"
or "disciple of the great proph-
et") was Jonadab who appears
as the ally of Jehu in the over-
throw of the house of Ahab. From
1 Chron, 2:65 it appears that the
house of Rechab belonged to the
Kenites who had joined the Israel-
ites on their exodus from Egypt,
and had settled in their lands, re-
taining many of the old habits of
patriarchal life.
Jeremiah 36:5. "And I set be-
fore the sons of the house of the
Rechabites bowls full of • wine,
and cups; and I said unto them,
Drink ye wine."
It isnot said that Jeremiah de-
liberately attempted to seduce
these Rechabites to lead them in-
to some sin. That is not the
point. Either Jeremiah urged
these people to break their former
vows only that, knowing they
would stedfastly refuse to do so,
ho might have a powerful illus-
tration by which to rebuke the
more easily tempted Israelites
who were of weaker stuff; or, he
may have wanted to persuade
these Rechabites to more closely
identify themselves with the Is-
raelites living in Jerusalem, and
to •give up their severe customs
which kept them separate from all
their nearby neighbors. They are
not rebuked for their stand but
are really commended,
"We Will Drink No Wine"
6. "But they said, We will
drink no wine; for Jonadab the
son of Rechab, our father, com-
manded us, saying, Ye shall drink
no wine, neither ye, nor your sons,
for ever: 7. neither shall ye
build house, nor sow seed, nor
plant vineyard, nor have any; but
all your days ye shall dwell in
tents; that ye may live many days
In the land wherein ye sojourn.
8. And we have obeyed the voice
of Jonadab the son of Itc:hab,
our father, in all that he charged
•, to drink no wine all our days,
R.A.F. "Invasion" of U.S. Begins
To every state in the Union 'will go a little silver Piper Cub sport
plane like this one, shown over the lower tip of Manhattan. Marked
with the insignia of tho Royal Air Force, the 48 planes are "invading"
the U.S. on behalf of the R.A,F. Benevolent Fund of the U.S.A.
we, our wives, our sons, or our
daughters; 9, nor to build houses
for us to dwell in; neither have
we vineyard, nor field, nor seed:
10. but we have dwelt in tents,
and have obeyed, and done ac-
cording to all that Jonadab our
father commanded us."
The Force of Example
This lesson has primarily to do
with the teaching and practice of
temperance in the home. It is
strongly suggested that if par-
ents 1;011 live wholesome, happy,
sincere Christian lives before their
children, being exceedingly care-
ful in thought and in act to main-
tain the practice of constant ab-
stinence from intoxicating bever-
ages, the children themselves will
adopt some of these convictions.
This we believe is the best way
to approach the problem,
Amateur Knitter?.
It is often difficult to gather
the top of a knitted skirt to fit
the waist elastic properly. First
pleasure the elastic firmly round
the .waist and join ends,' then
stretch this over a chair back
which is the sante width as the
top of the knitted skirt and seam
the knitting to the elastic with
matching wool or silk. When re-
moved from the chair the skirt
will have even fullness and will
stretch to the' right hip measure-
ments when it is being pulled on.

England's first airman is said
to have been James Sadler, of Ox-
ford. He made the first success-
ful ascent in that country in 1874.

ACCURATE ANALYST
Canada's best news analyst,
Dr. E. T. Salmon from the Mc-
Master University staff, rang the
bell again on the Balkan cam-
paign. Dr. Salmon worked in
the Balkans for a number of years
as a King's Messenger for the
British Foreign Office, and the
war moved into at. area which he
knew as well as he knows the
roads of Ontario. A month be-
fore the campaign was under way,
he predicted its development
along the channels we have watch-
ed these last few days, Then one
could turn back and remember
that' Professor Salmon's predic-
tions were working out to be one
hundred per cent correct.
You can follow the war with a
greater 'understanding and a
greater knowledge of what each
move means, by dialing in the
authoritative summing up by
Canada's best informed observer.

ARTICLE No. 10
Gardeners are advised to divide
their vegetable seeds into at least
three parts, sowing a third as
soon as the weather permits, a
third a little later, and the balance
at the vet'y tail -end of the plant-
ing season, In this way if frost
does cut down the first batch
there will be more plants coming
on and the season will be length-
ened by the last part of the gar-
den sown, Of courser there aro
some exceptions to this general
rule, One should not plant out-
side tender things like tomatoes,
peppers, melons, etc., until danger
of frost is over.
Sow Grass Early
Grass makes its most rapid
growth in the cool weather of
Spring and Fall. On this account,
lawn work of a new or repair na-
ture should be carried out just as
soon as the soil is fit to work,
After digging, the ground
should be allowed to settle for a
few days at least, and then level-
led again. It is advisable to re-
peat this process several times.
The top soil should then be raked
fine and on a windless day the
grass sown at a -liberal rate, once
across and once lengthwise. This
double iiowins insures an even
distribution. It is always, best to
get a good mixture of high qual-
ity grass seed blended by expert
Canadian seedsmen,
Good Tools Help
Exports advise one thorough
digging or spading in the late
Fall or Spring, or if the lot is a
large one it will be butter to get
it plowed. Just before either op-
eration, if the ground is poor it
is a splendid idea' to have some
good rotted manure turned under.
After this spading or plowing it
will only be necessary to cultivate
fine with a rake. Ono thorough
cultivation like this once a year
should keep the soil in shape and
permit one to carry on easily
with a small hand cultivator, or
Dutch hoe, Either of these inex-
pensive tools can be operated
without bending the back and
both will be sufficient to keep
the soil stirred and the weeds•
down during the remainder of the
season.
Should Control
Rheumatic Fever
Rheumatic Infections Could
Be Curbed If Caught Soon
Enough --Prevention In Chil-
dren Is the Slogan
The true prevalence of rheumatic
infections is unknown because the
malady is not, like scarlet fever,
diphtheria, typhoid fever and oth-
ers, reportable.
Rheumatic infection introduces
us to heart disease which with the
co -incident blood vessel disease
leads all others in the list of pub-
lic killers. Rheumatic fever ranks
high among the most severe dis-
eases; it is not so amenable to
prevention as syphilis and tuber-
culosis.' So far we lag in our ef-
forts to control this crippling dis-
ease,
BEGIN IN SCHOOLS
Our efforts in the control of
rheumatism must begin in the
schools. Examinations of children
in schools has uncovered some ap-
palling facts; 80 per cent of the
total organic heart disease of
school children has a rheumatic
origin. This becomes an important
problem when we consider that 3
out of every 100 children are suf-
ferers,
POOR, SURROUNDINGS FAVOR
DISEASE
Rheumatic conditions seem to be
more frequent among persons liv-
ing in poor hygienic surroundings.
The facts indicate that poverty,
malnutrition and unhygienic sur-
roundings are the most favourable
for the development of rheumatic
infections.
Prevention is the' slogan in rhea•
matte fever. The child with grow-
itg pains, grippe, tonsillitis and
sinus attacks should promptly be
put to bed he should remain fu bed
until well. Infected tonsils and
other foci of infection should be
removed. Children should be well
fed, clothed and cared far. It will
pay handsomely to check the onset
and course of rheumatic fet-i

Now is the time to heed the cld 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 claieks 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. Get a 35c or 60c bottle here today.
