Be In Town Saturday Night ---You May Be One of the Lucky Draw Winners T SUNDA Y SCHOOL LESSON r LESSON IV THE HOLY SPIRIT INSPIRES NEW TESTAMENT LETTERS pal. 1:11, 12; 1 Thess. 2:13; 2 (m. 3:14.17; 2 Pet. 3:14.16; Jude 3 GOLDEN TEXT—Every scrip- ture inspired of God Is also pro- fitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for instruction which is in righteousness. 2 Tim. 8:1.6, THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time. — The Epistle to the 6alatians was written about A.D. 8. The first Epistle to the Thessalonians wag written about A.D. 54. The two Epistles to Timothy were written at the end of Paul's life—perhaps A.D. 65 or 66. The Second Epistle of Peter was written approximately at the same time—A.D. 66; while the Epistle of Jude was also writ- ten between A.D. 65 and 70. Place,—Galatia was one of the great provinces of Asia Minor in Paul's day. Thessalonica was a city located in what we would call northern Greece, then known as Macedonia. Tho designation of 2 Peter and Jude are not given in these respective epistles. Paul's Gospel Inspired Gal. 1:11, "For I make known to you, brethren, as touching the gospel which was preached by me, that it is not after man. 12, For neither did I receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came to me through revelation of Jesus Christ." The Apostle Paul is here defending the supremacy of his message over all false teaching, which had been brought into the Galatian Churches by Judaizers and by those who were mixing works with the truth of salvation by grace. Verse eleven might be said to present the negative side of the question—his Gospel did not come from men; the twelftii verse presents the positive side— it came to him through revelation of Jesus Christ. How Thessalonians Received It I Thess. 2:13. "And for this cause we. also thank God without ceasing, that, when ye received from us the word of the message, even the word of God, ye accepted it not as the word of men, but, as it is in truth, the word of God, which also worketh in you that believe." Paul had himself preach- ed to the Thessalonian Church, a record of which is found in Acts 17:1-0. The First Epistle to the Thessalonians is the first epistle, as far as we know, that Paul ever wrote as an apostle to one of the great Christian Churches of his day. He is commending the Thes- salonians for receiving his mes- sage not as one based on human speculation, on man's wisdom, but as one given to hint by God, though spoken through mortal lips. Paul was but the instrument, God was the primary author and origin. The experience of the Apostle Paul with the Thessalonians ought to be, even if in a lesser degree, the experience of all true mini- sters of the Word of God, as they stand before their people to ! preach. His Doctrine of Inspiration It is interesting to note that to Paul's last three epistles, the two to Timothy, and the one to Titus, he speaks more often of faith, of teaching, of doctrine, of the truth, of the Word, of Scrip- ture, than in any other part of any of his writings of similar length. It is quite significant that the greatest statement Paul ever made about the Word of God, he makes here at the end of his life, a conclusion resulting from long years of absolute de- votion to Christ, and the Word of God. Towards Complete Lives 2 Tim, 3:14. "But abide thou In the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learn- ed them. 15, and that from a babe thou hast known the sacred writings which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in ChrL9t Jesus. 16. Every scripture inspired of God is also profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for instruction which is In righteous- ness." Of course this passage refers primarily to the Old Testa- ment Scriptures. If the Old Testament is inspired, how much more so the New, which records the very words and acts of the Saviour Himself, and was written by those who companied with the Lord, or were in fellowship with those who did, "17. That the man of God may be complete, fur- nished complete unto every good work." Verse sixteen tells us that the Word of God is inspired, and what it can do for us, but verse seventeen tells us that all these things are to the end that we, belonging to God, may be complete in our lives and equip - bed for every good work. NEM I 11 U.S. Flag Flies Over London Roof Tops Old Glory is getting to be a common sight in England. Above, it is being raised over typical London rooftops. Peter's Testimony Peter 3:14, Wherefore, be- loved, seeing that ye look for these things, give diligence that ye may be found in peace, with- out spot and blameless in his sight, 15. And account that the long- suffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also, according to the wisdom given to him, wrote unto you; 16. As also in all his epistles, speak- ing in then of these things; wherein are some things hard to be understood, which the ignorant and unstedfast wrest, as they do also the other scriptures unto their own destruction." The apostle has just been speak- ing of the coming of the Lord, and especially of those who, in a scoffing way, insisted that the Lord was not coming because thus far they had not seen Him. But, says Peter, the day of the Lord will come. If such is so, and righteousness is to reign at his coming, and we are to be in a new world by His grace, then we ought to give diligence to our personal life. These things, said the Apostle Peter, Paul himself, their beloved brother had unfold- ed in some of his epistles, which, he admitted, were quite hard to understand, and yet should be understood by the help of the Holy Spirit. Contending for the Faith Jude 3: 3. "Beloved, while I was giving all diligence to write unto you of our common sal- vation, I was constrained to write unto you exhorting you to con- tend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered unto the saints." If, then, we have in, our hands not only an inspired Word from God, but the only in- spired Word that God has given to men, permanently recorded in writing, how tragic if this Word should be lost, if its glory should be minimized, if its truths should be perverted, or twisted, or denied. Television Arrives On July 1 television became a commercial actuality in the United States. The Federal Communica- tions Commission removed the ban it had imposed on the ground that television had been sufficiently de- veloped to protect prospective buy- era uyera of receiving sets. Two New York stations were ready to start, with 20 others preparing in various parts of the country. By William THIS CURIOUS WORLD Ferguson COPR. 1933 BY NEA SERVICE, INC, PARADISE VALLEY, MT.

Each summer Boy Scouts In various parts of the Dominion are called upon to help search for lost persons. One of the first calls this summer came to the Scouts of Robcaygeon, Ont., to assist in the search for a womancottager who had disappeared in swamp and bush land crossed by numer- ous creeks, She was found where she had fallen down the side of a small ravine, suffering injuries which prevented her moving. When Montreal High School en- tered the local National Salvage drive, Patrol Leader Teddy Stan- ley of the school's Boy Scout Troop brought in one of the big- gest contributions, in a double sense, This was the 400 pounds of tinfoil he had been saving in order to secure an artificial arm from a firth advertising such a project. He had suffered ampu- tation as the result of an infec- tion. Two London Boy Scouts, Pat- rol Leader Jack Olden and Patrol Second Dennis Edwards, were on fire watching duty in their dis- trict when one of the last heavy Nazi bombing raids occurred. At 2 o'clock in the morning they were in the thick of the fight to quench incendiary bombs. At 3 a,m, a new and heavier wave of bombs, high explosives and incendiaries, fell further down the street. One incendiary had gone through to the base- ment of a dentist's premises and lodged in a cupboard. When the two Scouts arrived the fire was blazing furiously, but they at- tacked it with their stirrup pumps and sand, and eventually succeed- ed in putting it out. Then they made their way to a burning school, where they took over the hose and tackled the fire while the firemen attacked the blaze in a hall next door. Next, seeing a blaze on the roof of a five -storey building, they climbed in through a win- dow and made their way to the top. No hand -pumps were avail- able there, but they found some buckets. With these they ran down to the lower floor for water, and hastened back, up a ladder, through a trap door to the roof. The incendiary bombs were still falling, and the boys turned to "roof hopping," sanding out bombs as fast as t:! fell. ' In this they outstripped the men. Several times the blasts and vi- bration from high -explosive bombs nearly blew them from the roof tops. At 6.30 a.m. two weary Scouts went home for a wash and break- fast before going to their office jobs for a day's work. Reduce Car Speed To Save Gasoline Record of Consumption of Gats on Slow Drive Shows Vast Difference From Record on Fast Drive A letter from a reador of the Ot- tawa Journal gives proof of the importance of speed 111 consump• Bon of gasoline by motor vehicles.

A fortnight later he made the sane trip "In a hurry," and the mileage per gallon was cut to 17 or by 32 percent, Put it another way, he made the first round trip on about ten gallons of gasoline; the second time, because he was "in a hurry," the engine consumed about 1.1. gallons. Every driver of experience knows he pays heavily for speed, not only inn fuel but in wear and tear on his car, especially if he gets into the upper reaches beyond the legal limit of 50 m.p.h. For most cars, It is said, the economical speed is 35 to 90, and that is fast enough, usually, to get the driver to his destination as quickly as he needs to reach it. And just now there is the added point, that tho use of gasoline in this country must be reduced, by compulsion it not vol. untarlly, and the general adoption of a moderate speed in country driving Wright save the necessity for more drastic measures, or at least defer them, RADIO REPORTED 1 13y DAVE ROBBINS RADIO TIES EMPIRE The sons and daughters of the British Empire are getting to know each other better.

What Science Is Doing CARTILAGE BANKS Dr. Samuel Cohen, associate professor of laryngology at the Graduate School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, dis- closes that human cartilage now is being stored in "banks" for future use. Dr. Cohen explains that excess cartilage removed in operations previously was discarded but now is preserved in a solution for future grafting operations where additional tissue is required. "Cartilage banks" are becom- ing increasingly important as war - "f huge number of human disfigurements. —0— LOCATE SHRAPNEL QUICKLY A new quick method of find- ing bullets and shrapnel frag- ments in the body by geometry is announced by the U.S. War De- partment. The technique enables a sur- geon to locate a fragment in any part of the body within one min- ute with an X -Ray spotter and a few quick calculations of dis- tances. The operation to remove it is thus greatly simplified. With the new portable X -Ray machines now in use, it will be possible to examine wounded sol- diers juleback of the front lino, give emergency treatment and send them back to base hospitals with specific advices as to the lo- cation of a bullet or piece of shrapnel. llowCuu 1?!

' t .r Bombed Britons Are Appreciative Letters Show Enthusiasm For C.N.E. Plan Whereby Can- adian Women's Organizations Working Together at 1941 Exhibition Will Supply Cloth. es For Victims Mrs. H. M, Aitken, director of women's activities at the C.N.E., disclosed recently that a letter had been sent by the C.N.E. women's department to the head- quarters of the Women's Volun- tary Services in each of the bomb- ed cities and towns of Great Brit- ain, telling of the plan whereby 1,700 women from thirty Cana- dian women's organizations will work in the six big work rooms of the Women's Building during the 1941 Exhibition preparing clothes for bomb victims in the Motherland. Each city was asked to reply making known its indi- vidual requirements. Each of these "blitzed" towns and cities, including Plymouth, Birmingham, Manchester, Lon- don, Glasgow, Dover, Cardiff, Sheffield, Belfast, Bristol, New- castle, Ramsgate, Portsmouth, Swansea, Liverpool, and South- ampton, trade prompt reply to the C.N,E. query, in each case ex- pressing their great appreciation. From Dover, Plymouth, Liverpool Mrs. A. M. Beeston, Centre Or- ganizer of the W.V.S. in Dover, for example, writes: "it is kind of you to suggest sending clothes to us here in Dover. We shall be delighted to have anything you send, and we are, indeed, most grateful to you all. Please thank all the organizations who are working for us, and tell then the spirit of Dover is grand," Another Centre Organizer, Mrs. T. B. Davie, of Liverpool, says: "I am quite sure that you have no idea of the deep impres- sion the generosity and sympathy of the Dominions make on the people here." "Thank you very much for your kind letter," writes Mrs. Madge Wordley, on behalf of Plymouth. "Plymouth has had a bad time, but the courage of the people is wonderful and their hearts are high. Through the Women's Vol- untary Services, approximately 6,500 people have been clothed Isere during the last three months, and thanks to the wonderful gifts being received from the Domin- ions and America, we hope to con- tinue this help for those who have suffered such terrible losses. May the day soon come when the war with all its distress and misery is over, and victory is assured for the Empire, so that we may all go forward together in creating a better and a happier world for the future generations." Chinese Cooks Tell Their Successors All When a Chinese cook leaves his place of employment, he imparts the character of his employer in a novel way, an American return- ed from the Orient states. Rice at the bottom of a pan says that the head of the house is stingy, The lid lying on the floor beside the pot means a hard place and frequent shortage of servants. The saucepan placed upside down denotes a hot-tempered mas- ter, but if laid on one side it means the whole family is hard to please. if the pot is left on the stove inverted, wages will cone regularly. If the bottom of the pot is chalked, it signifies that breakage is taken out of wages. 11 D TASTE GOOD INA PIPE It►\ SEAL'T GHI POUCH -15t` HAY „LOK.TOP" YIN -650 1,12-19.acked In Pocket Tint also P GROWN IN SUNNY, SOUTHERN ONTARIO Six Famous Artists Help Spitfire Fund In an effort to assist in raising funds for the Jasper -Banff Spit- fire Fund, six famous artists have donated original paintings which are now on display in the rotunda of Jasper Park Lodge and aro attracting much attention. The artists who have given their paint- ings to assist this fund are Roland Gisaing, Grandmaison, Peter Whyte, Carl Rungus, Belmore Brown and Roland Jackson.

In Plessisville are manufactured many of the specialized machines required for the harvesting and the treatment of flax so that it may be transformed into linen. War greatly upset sources of sup- ply of flax fibre and stirred Can- adian enterprise to a speed-up in production and manufacture. It is estimated that approximately 28,000 acres of Quebec land have been given over to flax growing this year and mills are ready to handle the crop. Since the days of the early settlement flax has been grown on many Quebec farms and spun on the wheel dur- ing the winter months. Now the spinning has reached the export stage and a training school in Plessisville is graduating machin- ists, spinners and weavers. Hen Called In When Gas Fails St. Bartholomew's Hospital, Lon- don, England, recently received the gift of a set of eggs. It was suggested when the chickens were hatched they should be sent to the nurses' country home to provide eggs for the winter.

A resourceful hospital official ap- peared with a hen in the sidecar of his motorcycle and the newcom- er proceeried to hatch nut the eggs. !anus YOU IJEARD'!

"CALLING ALL CARS" A ?JATIONAL EMERGENCY Canada is right up against an acute shortage of gasoline and fuel oil. Tankers that normally supply our country have been commandeered for vitally important overseas service. The Commonwealth Air Training Plan, the rapid development of Canada's mechanized army units and the great work carried on by our corvettes make the demand for fuel urgent. Our crude oil intake is limited. There is just one thing to do if our fighting forces are to carry on with a "full tank". Every Canadian motorist is asked to cut his 'daily gas consumption in half 1 There are many ways by which this 50 % saving can be made ... ways arid means to give you more mileage per gallon. You can drive slower so that you will use less gasoline. You can go fifty-fifty with your neighbours, inviting each other to share cars ... for business, and for pleasure. People can readily go to and from work together, using one car instead of four ... using one gallon of gasoline instead of several. Women as well as mon can make these savings. Tho amount of gasoline used in Canada for businoss, social and non-essential activities is amazingly high in proportion to that used by our fighting forces. Ono look at the figures would convince you that this - situation must be reversed. Canada does not ask or request you to put your car up. She merely asks for your help ... asks that you walk sometimes when the distance isn't too great .. . that you take a shorter drive 17easy ways lowarci s a GASOLINE SAVING (Approved by Automobile Experts) Reduce driving speed from 80 to 40 on the open road. Avoid jackrabbit starts. Avoid useless or non-ossential driving. Turn motor off when not in use, do not leavo idling. Don't raco your engine; let it warm up slowly. Don't strain your engine: change gears. Koop carburetor cleaned and properly adjusted. Tuno up motor, timing, etc. Keep spark plugs and valves clean. Chock cooling system; overheating wastes gasoline. Maintain tiros at right pressure. Lubricate efficiently; worn engines waste gasoline. Drive in groups to and from work, using cars alternate days. For golf, picnics and other outings, use one car instead of four. Take those short shopping trips ON FOOT and carry parcels home. \'balk to and from the movies. Boat owners, too, can help by reducing speed. Your regular service station elan will gladly explain these and outer ways of saving gasoline. Consult hint. on Sunday afternoon ... that you look after your car and keep it in good condition ... that you say to your neigh- bour: "Let's use my car today, Jim; wo'11 use your tomorrow," Every day, in greater and greater quantity, wo mast release gasoline and oil by the thousands of gallons to our throbbing munitions plants ... to our tanks and armoured cars ... to our fighting planes and bombers ... to our corvettes and merchant ships that ply the vital sea -lanes ... so that the day of victory may, sooner be at hand. Will YOU help?. • It is also vitally important ' that yott reduce tine use of domestic and commercial fuel oil. The Government of the DOMINION OF t"ANADJ ACTING TIIPOUGIH: THE HONOURABLE C. D.

The idea gained birth from the accute ;tortage of farm help now availaible to help harvest C.ul:t(it's abundant harvest, which is so essen- tial if food supplies are to be kept going to Britain in the ever-increasing flow which is needed. Lt is believed that in many of the 'squatter towns and communities, which are naturally very closely linked with agriculture, there are many Industries • which have among their workers men who have had experience on the farm and are physically capable of dbin; a goo(I day's work in the harvest field. The appeal is to such industries as are not engaged in essential war pt'oduc- tion, to allow such workers as will,•to volunteer to help in the harvest, one clay a week so that they may speed it on some nearby farm. It Is suggested that this help be or- ganized and sent out—a proportion ev- ery (lay, so as to provide steady help. In the case of Blyth, if volunteer workens were to leave their names at some central point, made known to the farmers, then the farmer could, with- out difficulty, get in touch with Inial, by phoning this central point, On the other hand if there is any in- dustry willins to help In this way and has a number of Dien available they should notify their Country Representa- tive of the Department of Agriculture, which for Huron. is J. C. Shearer of Clinton. This call to help the farmer is to a service which is vitally important in our total \liar Effort. The Department of Labour is' particularly anxious that this Day -a -Week co-operation plan be given a thorough try out as the labour situation in many farm districts is critical.

Both the suggestions that have been made in respect to saving on steel in the manufacture of On- tario motor license plates are worthy of consideration. They are that plastics be used instead of metal, or that the front license plate be abandoned. The latter proposal would seem to be the more reasonable, Plas- tics give promise of being an im- portant factor in our war effort, and there may be need soon for relieving industries manufactur- ing these materials of all unnec- essary calls. Issuing only one license plate for a car would save half the steel now going into these articles, and It would not be a revolutionary step. There is really little need for a plate on the front, and Florida, as an outstanding example, has for years got along very well with- out it, —Windsor Star. Suggestions For The Week -Ender Are You Planning to Visit Friends From Saturday to Monday This Bummer/ It Might Be Wise to Follow These Rules There have been so many printed complaints against the summer week -end guest who forgets her bathing suit or who wants to bor- row a sweater or even a little cold cream that many hostesses are finding the guest -hostess relation- ship pretty strained in spots. There may be a lot of rules about not asking for things that haven't been put in plain view 1n guest or hath room, But It's ten times more annoying to any hostess to have a guest who won't wear a borrowed sweater when she Is ob- viously cold than tf is to have one just who up and asks for anything she wants, whether extra warm clothes or an extra blanket. Its easier on the Lostess to have a guest state her preferences about food than to say, "I like everything" and then not eat much of anything on the table. Saying "1 don't play bridge" is easier on everybody, especially the hostess, than playing so badly that half tha other guests are annoyed. Nuisances Any guest can tell her hostess that she would rather sleep than get up and go to church, or vice versa, No hostess minds having a guest sleep later than all others In the household, provided the guest doesn't mind making her own bed or offering to get her own break- fast. Be Natural Maybe this is the time for guests and hostesses to resolve to be natural and forget most of the ready-made rules, Summer week- ends might be more fun all th way around if guests just assumed that they were invited because they are liked and enjoyed and not because they observe dozens of rules. 12,500 Miles of Blades Daring the. past twelve months, thirty-three British manufacturers, says Maclean's Magazine, have sent overseas an average of 1,126,000 razor blades a day End to end, the 456,250,000 blades would reach 12,500 miles. The value of these exports is something like $3,000,- 000 3,000;000 a year. The razor -blade export business used to be largely in the 'rands of Germany. That is but one of the many ex- amples. In spite of war produc- tion, bombings and sinkings, Brit- ish industry is expanding its over- seas trade.

THE WAR •WEE K—Commentary on Current Events Latest War Developments Improve British Position Increased confidence was brought to the people of Britain and her allies by the speeches of Prince Minister Winston Churchill on July 14. This "dogged old warrior" said, to quote the New York Times, "that the tables had been turned on Ger- many in the matter of air raids and increased bombings could be ex- pected, that there would be no truce with Germany, that Italy was on the bombing schedule and that Lon- don could continue to 'take it' if necessary." Only the Beginning "In the last few weeks alone," Mr, Churchill said, "we have thrown upon Germany about half the ton- nage of bombs thrown by the Ger- mano upon our cities during the whole course of the war. But this is only the beginning. We do not expect to hit without being hit back, and we intend with every week that passes to hit harder," Shipping Losses Decrease That Britain's position had vastly improved from a year ago was the opinion of Kirke L. Simpson, Asso- ciated Press military correspon- dent, who stressed, among other factors in the situation, the sharp decrease in British shipping losses, He said; "London's ship -loss figures for June tell the story. They were the lowest since July, 1940 (329,296 tons), except for a period in the dead of last winter. Indications are that the present month's losses will fall even lower, due to Nazi air concentrations in the east, to prob- able withdrawal of some German submarines for use against Russia In the Baltic and to British counter measures at sea." The Battle of the Atlantic would appear to be veering in favor of Britain and the United States, Collapse of Vichy Resistance The British lifelines had also been greatly strengthened in the Middle East by the Syrian victory, and the political results, it was predicted, would he of much more consequence. There could be no doubt that the outbreak of the Nazi -Soviet war had much to do with the col- lapse of Vichy resistance to the British -Free French allies in Syria and Lebanon. It ended the last hope of the "men of Vichy" for effective German intervention there. Sur- render followed inevitably, British -Soviet Pact The new British -Russian pact signed at Moscow on July 12, said Mr. Churchill, "is, of course an al- liance and the Russian people are our allies." General Jan Christian Smuts, Prime Minister of South Africa, in commenting on Mr. Churchill's statement to the British House of Commons, said: "Let no one say we are now in league with the Communists and are fighting the battle of Conununism." The British -Russian treaty pledged that each nation would support the other in war against Hitierite Ger- many; and that neither would sign a separate peace with the enemy. The New York Times last week presented a clear picture of the moves and counter-moves of the two great powers now in the fourth week of war: "It is still hard to believe that the German and Russian reports of hostilities are talking about the same war. Berlin tells of sweeping advances. Mos- cow reports victorious counter- attacks, "The German High Command re- stricted itself to a report of 'pro- gress' on the whole eastern front, but the German news agencies told of the imminent doom of two of Russia's greatest cities, Leningrad and Kiev, In the north the Nazis were aid to have crossed the Luga River, last great barrier to Lenin- grad, and in the south the fall of Kiev was said to he a foregone. con - elusion. "The Moscow communique said the drive at Leningrad had been stopped with a successful coiulter- attack in which the Nazi columns were being hurled back or destroy. ed 'section by section.' in the central sector, the Russian line was said to be holding at Vitebsk, while the southern thrust at Kiev was declared to have been thrown hack in disorder near Novo?lnrl Vol• ynsk." Which Way to Jump The bellat that something spec- tacular was brewing in the hand of the Rising Sun was vindicated last week when, after paying a visit to the Emperor, Premier Prince Fumirnaro Konoye resign. ed, and with him the entire Jap aneso Cabinet. Obviously this meant serious Internal dissension in the matter of Japan's ft;reigu policy, and disagreement over the Saving Ontario's Natural Resources 1 4 .•-. ( G. C. Toner Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters (No. 50) PROBLEM OF EROSION This article will deal with erosion. I showed last week how erosion cuts down the highest mountains, given time, and how nature uses it to fashion the earth. But this is slow natural erosion not the swift man- ade tion of the land that occurs when we misuse our natural resources, One is necessary, the other will ©� entually make old land a desert unless it is cont'olle,l. Where soil or rock is exposed to the atmosphere or to water chemical and physical changes take place. Freezing and heating break up the rocks and the harder soils. Acids from the air and from minerals acted upon by the air help to dissolve away the hardest rock. These reactions and many others are continuing all the time but very slowly for there are other factors acting against them. in Ontario's History In our land there are few places where the soil or the rock is nor- mally exposed to the air. Nearly everywhere under natural condi- tions a heavy growth of plant life covers and protects the soil. This protection cuts erosion to a mini- mum so that very little soil dis- appears into the rivers during the year. At one time every stream in Ontario flowed clear and cool the year around, Erosion hardly existed because of the cover of plants and trees, The first settler's needed agri- cultural lands so they cut the trees from many parts of the country. Where the soil was ex- posed it was rich and deep, crops grew marvellously for the first years, Later as the rich organic humus, that held the soil together, disappeared, the land became more open and less packed. And under such conditions erosion is speeded up a thousand -fold. Every heavy rain carries away the soil to the rivers which are dirty from their heavy load of silt. As the top soil goes, the organic humus already gone, the deeper soils are exposed and these cut away even faster until bare rock is reached. This is the problem we must face very soon. Prevent erosion or our agricultural lands will disappear forever: steps that should be taken in the face of the changing international situation.

Stalin Line Makes 1,100 Mile Barrier Fortifications Run From Black Sea to Gulf of Finland —Soviet Secretive About De- scriptions Few facts have leaked out about Soviet. Russia's Stalin Line, which the German war machine has been bucking for the past couple of weeks, and there is no reliable basis on which to judge its strength. Her is the hest available plc• ture;— In general it is a 1,100 -utile mate made barrier running along the entire old Russian western frontier from the Black Sea to the Gulf of Finland, and it was built principally to guard against invasion from Germany. It combines the features of France's Maginot Line, including great, full -equipped . concrete fort- resses built underground, with the advantages of Germany's West \Vall, which is built in greater depth. Whether or not it can be flanker], as was the Maginot, is a matter of speculation. Underground Fortresses Tho bulk of the ,Malin system was completed in 1933, hut the Red Army's leaders have `added to it and strengthened it continually ever since, and are reported to have installed the most modern machinery available to keep the fortifications impregnable as new weapons of attack have been de. veloped, I)etaiis about the Stalin Line, ob. viously, are military secrets, but the Kremlin has not permitted even general deso1'iptions as much an tho French did. One exception was an article pub. lashed April 11 in the Soviet. Army newspaper Red Star—the first mention in the Soviet press of the Red fortifications in several years. A special correspondent told of entering a' great steel and concrete underground fortress through a door concealed in a hillside. Inside he found a warm, well -lighted labyrinth of defence machinery, complete with power plant, dorms' tory and fire stations. The guns and machine guns wore said to be a unit in a cont' pletely fortified zone of fire. 25 -Mlle Depth These underground fortresses are provisioned with reserve stores for long sieges. An invader must do more than conquer these Maginot -type forst' flcations, however, for the Stalin Line runs in depth for distances varying up to about 75 miles in some places.

The motion picture they made (for release this autumn) is 8,000 feet long, From this wealth of pictures 136 photographs were selected for the book, John Steinbeck himself says: "This is a story of the little bueblo of Santiago on the skirts of a hill in the mountains of Mexico, And this ad' is the story of the boy ,,uan Dieg and of his family and of his peop who livo in the long moment Wen the past slips reluctantly into /the future."

Ellen's relatives insist that Valerie come to live with them, but Mark is just as insistent that she stay with him. Dorothy, El- len's sister, has her eye on the trust fund that Ellen left Valerie, and has already begun to make efforts to obtain custody of the girl. She insists that Valerie wear black, but Mark eNys she can have whatever clothes please her most. CHAPTER VI. Valerie went into her dressing room and opened the big clothes closet to pass final sentence on the solemn dresses in an orderly; row on their hangers, It hardly --gutted -pogslble she was about to wipe the place bare of them and start all over again. She pulled down the things, be- ginning with the ones she special- ly disliked, and carrying then) in to pile neatly on her bed. Then she remembered Mark, and the hilarity of their shopping. Nothing Mark did could be so very wrong. And Mark had said get rid of them. She got out the pile of boxes from the corner of the dressing room, and began to untie them, lifting out delicious layers of white tissue paper, from which rose faint but exciting scent. As she shook out the bright chiffons, the organdies, and the tweeds, she forgot Ellen and her theories. Forgot the empty rooms below. Forgot, for the time, even that there was Mark, She was balanced in enchant- ment before the newly filled clos- et when Mrs. Banford walked into the room, Valerie jumped and confronted her, standing be- fore the swaying garments defen- sively. "I—Pin afraid I didn't hear you knock—" she said, - What About Mourning? "I knocked three times," said Mrs, Banwood. "What in the world!" "Just—just my new things. I --1'm sorry I didn't hear you." Mrs. Banwood fingered a bright chiffon critically, "And who is going to wear these?" she asked, "I—I ane," Valerie ran past her into the bedroom and gatllereu a pile of sober garments from the bed, "These are for ybu," She thrust them into Mrs, Banwood's arms. "My father said you would know what to do with'thenl, You see, somebody may need them—" "Who bought you the others?" "My father." The words made magic, She waited to say them over and over—"my father." When she said it, she could see tite ugly gray of Mrs. Banwood's dis- approval fade, "Aren't you going to wear any mourning?" The wonuun seemed able to speak in nothing but ques- tions. They sounded bald, even to her own ears, "My fattier says it's wit' is in your heart—not what color you have on," Mrs. Banwood looked down at her accusingly. "And your mother hardly in her graven" Nervous tears filled Valerie's DOUBLE AUTOMATICOL ISSUE 30—'41 0 CAI 'MEAKING h_BLE•AC1'INQ WDFR e°416144notr trri a,,.. ear versant ts. L9I C T /, :. N eyes. She could almost see the world turning again Into the dim and dusty place where she had lived so long. Mrs. Banwooa was a little troubled at the tears. After all, the child was not her business, Let thein dress her in rainbows, for all of her. Housekeepers were not ata premium with conditions what they were, and places like this didn't grow on hushes. She tried to smile reassuringly at Val- erie, who found the grimace terri- fying. "Thanks for the things," said Mrs, Banwood, She settled the clothes more firmly in her long arms. "I know two little girls who aren't lucky like you. They will be thankful enough to have them." Shirley and Elise Everything nice seemed to be happening at once. Also several things that were not nice, The best was that the day before they were going away, Shirley called her up. Valerie had thought she had forgotten. Mark was in town, and Chit - tern called her to the telephone in the upstairs sitting room. "Will you speak to Miss Endicott on the' telephone, if you please, Miss Valerie?" in Chiltern's best man- ner. Valerie had almost forgotten the smooth lovely tones of' Shir- ley's voice. Shirley's message was brief, She wanted, she said, to remind Valerie of their engage- ment. "I've been up to my ears, dar- ling, or I'd have phoned before. Going over the proof of a silly book, and trying to finish a story for an exasperated editor only two jumps behind ate, Could I drive over and get you tomorrow?" "Tomorrow we're going away," said Valerie, She would have been almost sad if she hadn't wanted to go so much, There was something about Shirley that was so sweet, "Could—could you please have me when we get back?" It took cour- age to suggest it, but she couldn't quite give it up. "We wouldn't be gone so very long. I do so want to come to your party!" "Of course," said Shirley over the wire. "Perhaps it will be even nicer, because we'll have more time to think about it. Call me as soon as you get back, and we'll make a date. Maybe Mark would come for dinner and bring you home." "Oh—yes—" It was wonderful how things straightened out. "Have a good time, darling. Don't forget -- when you get home—" "I won't — good-bye—thank you," She sat still for a moment after she put the telephone back. What was not s0 1nice was the sight of Elise's maroon car in .the drive, sho came back from a flying trip to the kennels, lute that afternoon. She would have run away to lose herself In the shrubbery if Elise hadn't caught sight of her just as the big front door swung open. Elise turned back and drew Valerie into the house beside her. Valerie led the way into the main drawing room, which always awed her slightly. But she felt that for- mality belonged to Elise. She sat on the edge of a petit -point chair, because Elise had sat down and was undoing her fors. "[ happened to be passing the gates, and thought I'd run in and see if I could carry you off to drive a little," she said. "You must need cheering up, darling, You've been on my mind night and day, and l'd have run in days ago, but I thought it more tactful to leave you and your dear daddy to get a bit acquainted," Elise got up and went to Val- erie's chair and held out her hand, "We're going to be great pals," she said. "Come on—we'll drive till dinner tittle; then I'll bring you back and your daddy may be home, and perhaps you'll take pity on me and give me a bite to eat. Wouldn't it be sweet ---just us three?" Valerie had to think very quickly. She let Elise take her hand, although sho got up and stood beside her. "Oh—yes—thank you—" she said, "But you see, we're going on a•trip, Tomorrow morning, Very early. My father may not get home until late tonight, And I'm packing—at least, I'm helping—" (To be continued) Fire -Hose Made To Fight Nazis Historic Mill Turns Out 1,000 Miles of it Since War Began To fight the Nazi's rain of lncen- diaries on Britain, 1,000 miles of fire hose have been turned out since the war began by the welt - vers in a Horth of England village, says the Montreal Star.

Eat More Fish Instead of Pork Housewives Preparing the Family Meals Can Help the Government in Two Ways by Following This New Rule Department of fisheries officials and the fish industry are hopeful many Canadians can be persuaded to eat fish cakes or fried fillets of fish for breakfast instead of bacon or haul, now that the call has gone out for Canadians to eat less pork products. A promotion program to increase• fish consumption has been going on for some time, department of- ficials said last week, and demon- strators move from town to town telling housewives the benefits ,of fish in the diet, and showing how to cook R. FISH INDUSTRY WILL BENEFIT With the bacon board asking con- suuters to cut down their consump- tion of bacon and ham and other pork products and prices of other meats fairly high, department offi- cials regard this as an opportune time to get Canadians into the way of eating fish. "1 am sure the fish Industry will be fully alive to this opportunity," said Dr, D. 13. Finn, deputy minis - .ter of fisheries, "While bacon and fish taste different both are rich. In protein and from a nutritive stand - polus aro similar," he said. Along the coast fish calces made from salted or dried fish are a fairly common breakfast diet, but inland they are not Used.

Do Women Dress As Men Prefer? Writer Lists Number of Fash- ions Not Popular With Males You thlnk women dress to please men, asks Alicia Hart. Well, if you are right, then why is it that some women: Wear flat -heeled shoes, tailored shirts and plain felt hats with man- nish suits? (Men invariably hate such severe get-ups.) Buy completely wild, completely crazy hats? Anything that makes tate average male feel conspicuous usually infuriates him (Being seen with a woman in an attention -get- ting hat generally makes him feel conspicuous.) Hate Severe Get -Ups Use scarlet hail polish? (Can you name more than one you ever heard say he liked It?) Keep right on wearing girdles? (Just remember how many times your husband has said that you look better without one.) Wear perfume only for dress -up occasions and then wear too much of it? (Men like perfume—but a little goes a long way.) Tolerate chipped and cracked nail polish? Prefer ultra -chic clothes to pretty ones? Choose heels so high and slender that a graceful walk is quite out of the question? Wear sports hats that won't stay on in a high wind? Cling to boxy jackets and other clothes that hide the natural lines of the figure? (The only figure a man thinks should be hidden be- hind loose folds of material is the bad figure.) Wear black continually? Reshape their mouths—with lip- stick a quarter of an inch thick? Do you still think woltlelt dress to please men?

I read the other day that a slogan of the last war was: "Eat what you can and what you can't eat, can," Once again we are at war and I believe that for this Canada of ours, with our surplus of food and our richness in fruits and vegetables, one of the slogans should be: "Let us fill all the Jars," Firstly consider your own family and make every preserve, jelly and jam that they like. Then from the surplus, let us prepare for the many, many corners of the earth to which we may be ask- ed to send food, So here's to the "United Home Front!" First I am going to give you a few general suggestions, which seem this time of year to be a daily topic, For your very best res'.tlts do not use fruit unless it is sound, ripe, of a good color and shape, 1)ol) not be overly interested in the bargain counter when it comes to fruit and vegetables, It just does not pay. in choosing your jars, pick those which will best serve your family as to size, so that there may be no leftovers to spoil. Test all jars before using. Ad- just rubber rings, fill with water and invert to test for leaks. Dis- card any jar which cannot be made air -tight. This is always economy. Always use fresh rubber rings. Always sterilize jars thoroughly, and if possible, give them a sun - drying and 1 guarantee there will be no spoiled fruit. Have you had trouble with cer- tain fruits darkening in the pre- paration—say peaches, pears and apples? If using cold pack methods, as soon as your jar has been filled with fruit, pour on the boiling syrup. 1 using the other methods peel at a time only the fruit which your kettle will ac- commodate, so that the fruit will not have to sit waiting for the cooking. Light Syrup Use 1 cup sugar to 2 cups water or half and half of sugar and corq syrup to the same proportion of water. This is especially good for peaches and pears, Medium Syrup Use 1 cup sugar to 1 cup water or half and half of corn syrup and sugar to the same proportion of water, If you wish you may use the "no sugar" method and use 1 cup corn syrup to 1 cup water. Heavy Syrup This type is suitable for the very tart fruit such as cherries, berries of all kinds or the plums. Some prefer this type for peaches too. 2 cups sugar to 1 cup water or half and half again of sugar and syrup to 1 cup water. N.B.— Always when mixing sugar syrup and water place over a low heat at first until all is dissolved, stirring constantly to prevent burning. Open Kettle Canning Simmer only enough fruit at a time, that may be completely cov- ered with syrup. Sterilize jars and covers and fill with hot fruit and syrup while jars are still very hot and sterile. Always fill jars to overflowing with the hot fruit and syrup, while jars are still very hot. If using a knife to insert in jar to remove bubbles, be sure it is sterile. Dip the new rubber rings in boiling water before adjusting on jar. Invert jars in cooling to test for leakage. Cold -Pack Canninng Pack the raw fruit closely in hot sterile jars. Have syrup boil- ing before adding it. Fill jars just two-thirds from top, to allow for expansion. Slip sterile ktnife around for the escape of air -bubbles. Place on rubber rings, dipping in boiling water and sterilized lids. 'Tighten; seal, teen loosen tops one-half turn. In using hot water bath, place jars in water near their own tem- perature. Be surf to give water time to boil after jars are placed in bath, When jars are placed on rack, do not allow them to touch each DELICIOUS!

SUCH A SHORT BOILI—With Certo you need give oily a one•minnte to two•minute fill, rolling boil for jam—for jelly only a half•minute to a minute. ECONOMICAL, TOO I --in this short boil very little juice can boil away. You average one half more jam or jelly from an equal amount of fruit. NATURAL TASTE AND COLOUR --Instead of going off in steam, all the fresh, natural flavour stays right in the fruit, The colour, too, is never darkened or spoiled. Honk n/ 72 Malted i t'eri pre under Label o/ Is rrry CEBTO Mottle, NO UNCERTAINTY --There's no guesswork with Certo. Follow exactly the Certo recipe for the particular fruit you are using and you'll have firm, luscious jams and jellies every time. E191 A FOUND 1<11:1 k, at I'.S.S, \o.
