V Modern Etiquette BY ROBERTA LEE 1, What aro some of the common expressions to avoid in conversa- tion? 2. Is it necessary to send a gift when one receives an announce- ment of a girl's engagement? 3. Is it permissible to use hotel stationery when accepting or re- gretting a formal invitation? 4. Is it proper for a man to smoke while walking along the street with a woman? 5. Should one try to keep the right-hand margin of a letter even? 6. When should a woman re- move her wraps when dining in the restaurant of a hotel? ANSWERS 1, One's personality is reduced to A minimum if he persists in em- ploying such words as "O.K." for "all rght"; "yeah" for "yes"; "kid" for "child"; "gets my goat" for "annoys she"; up to you" for "it's for you to decide"; sure" for "yes" or "certainly"; and "I don't get you" for "I don't understand." People of refinement, and especial- ly women do not use these expres- sions. 2. No. 3. No; personal stationery alone 1. suitable for this purpose. 4. No; it shows a lack of respect to the woman, especially it she 1s one who also smokes. The fact that convention does not yet allow a woman of breeding to walk along the street smoking a cigaret should prohibit a man of good taste from exercising his "right" while with her. 5. Yes; while it is usually un- even, care should be taken not to run the lines too near the edge of the paper, .It should have some balance with the left-hand margin. 6. She waits until she is seated before removing her wraps, the waiter or one of the men in the party assisting her. Mw.00mp.1mm1,•mUamoamiO4imoemUwosmiOMEJtJal How Can I? BY ANNE ASHLEY Q. How can l remove weather stains from a canvas auto top? A, Ordinary weather stains, caus- ed by soot, rain, or dust, can per- haps be hest removed by brushing with a hot soap solution and rins- ing.

A wind velocity of 281 miles an inur was reported In 1984 atop cunt Washington, New Hamp- eitire. Eat Your Meals And Enjoy Them "Clean up your plate; lots of little boys in Europe are going hungry!" Twenty-five years ago the version was: "Think of those starving little Belgians." And even then we couldn't see any mire sense in the grins reminder than did the muttering small fry to whom it was addressed. We doubt the wisdom of appealing to a child's appetite by reminding him that other children need food. Dubious social implications apart, motivation like this puts the wrong emphasis on eating—eat- ing is a natural function and the right emphasis is on enjoyment of it. 0 3M111.01•1.0411111.411111101111004111 • HAVE• YOU HEARD? This story won first prize in a competition run by an American periodical for stories of brevity and dramatic content, Elvina Parker received a tele- gram from her brother, who was accompanying her husband on a big -game expedition in Africa. The telegram read: "Bob killed lion hunting.—Fred." Elvina, overcome with grief, wired back: "Send him home.— Elvina." Some weeks later a large pack- ing case arrived from Africa. In- side was a lion. Elvina sent a tele- gram: "Lion received. Must be mistake. Send Bob.—Elvina." Back from Africa came the re- ply: "No mistake. Bob in lion.— Fred." —v— A drunk was walking along the curb with one foot on the sidewalk and the other in the gutter, relates Reader's Digest. A cop followed him for two blocks and then said, "Come along, buddy, and I'II help you home. You're drunk." "Thank Godl" s a id the drunk. "I thought I was a cripple." —v— Three air-raid stories—all true: "The siren has just sounded," a maid somewhere iii Kent told her employer "and 1 has laid your tea on the lawn." "Short air raid last night," sald the man on the bus. "Yes—hardly worth putting shy teeth in for," replied his companion. The A. R. P. warden told a man to take cover. "I've got to pay for the war," he protested. "Can't 1 look at it?" — v— "It's getting late," remarked the first fisherman, "and we haven't caught a single fish." "Well," replied his compan- ion, "let's let two morebig ones get away and then go home." — v— A man who'd just joined for training passed a captain without saluting. The captain stopped him. "Take a look at me," he said. "Do you attach any special sig• nificance to this uniform," The new chum looked him over, then grinned, "Why, you lucky dog," he exclaimed, "you've got a suit that fits!" —y— A little English girl came In late for school with this note: "Please excuse May for being late. We were blitzed last night and she wasn't dug out until 3 o'olock thio morning." 44AITECii Coq,car.elitePape NONE FINER MADE Hors D'Oeuvres "Literary" Style To occupy the brief interval be- tween ordering and service of the first item in a meal, reading mat- ter is provided on all menu card covers in use on dining cars of the Canadian National Railways in- cluding those services operated on the Grand Trunk Western lines. Material used in those literary hors d'oeuvres covers a wide range of Canadian subjects, economic, historic and scenic, Collected iu one volume these briefs, from pre- sent and past series, would make a handy encyclopedili of inform- ation concerning Canada.

Heavy Toll Taken Of Enemy Planes An Air Ministry tabulation, on the second anniversary of the de- claration of war, placed Axis losses for the first two years of war at 8,020 planes and British losses at 3,089 planes. An incomplete list of Ios:ies in various theatres was given as:— Over and around Great Britain —Axis, 3,629, Britain 884. Over Germany and occupied territory — Axis 690, Britain 1,334. Middle East—Axis 2,087, Brit- ain 383. Western Front in 1939-40 — Axis 957, Britain 379. These figures, representing only losses in fighting with Brit- ain, do not include Axis losses on the Russian front. The Perfect Wife W. M.

WELL WORTH TRYING) Japan's Aircraft Production Low Japan's F I r s t Line Air Strength About Five' Thous- and Planes Japan's "air industry is woeful- ly weak and her air force is of low offensie strength." Lucien Zacharofj, aeronautics authority, writes in the September issue of the magazine "Aviation." He questions whether the Jap- anese air force would be a' factor in defending its own cities. The, first-line air strength he places 'at no more than 5,000 planes and possibly at only 3,000. He says the island empire's per- sonnel is . probably 5,000. "It sounds incredible," he writes, "that Japan's army and navy air -training schools are gra- duating a total of much fewer than 1,000 pilots a year. "The quality of their education may be appraised by the fact; ad- mitted by okio censors; that even in pent a -time Japanese military and commerical fliers have the highest accident rate in the world." Most of the leading Japanese military aircraft types are called obsolete or obsolescent by Zacha- roff, who adds that Japan's cur- rent production of military planes of all types, including trainers, is about 250 a month, Current United States produc- tion, as announced by the Office of Production Management, is about 1,500. The writer rates Far East So- iet air contingents as more power- ful than Japan's and Dutch -Bri- tish air power in the Pacific as greater than that of the Japanese navy. Canada Plans Plastic Planes New Type Aircraft Await Decision of R,C,A.F. Manufacture of all -wood and fab- ric airplanes of the so-called "plastic" type may be the next step in Canada's expanding air- craft production program, if the necessary approval is forthcoming from Royal Caandian Air Force officials, An all -wood Anson fuselage, as- sembled at'the air force operation- al headquarters at Rockclitfe has been exhaustively tested and prov- en, rowen, delivering about 10 miles an hour greater speed than that of the orthodox Ansons now in gen- eral use, These fuselages are not plastics in the generally understood sense of the word, since they are not moulded from a composition but are made of laminated woods held together by a phenol -formaldehyde - resin substance and assembled under tretnendous air pressure. Lightness of aircraft so manufac- tured gives a greater carrying ca- pacity of gasoline, armament or personnel. Raw material is readily available. They are quickly matle and, presumably as durable aa could he desired, production offic- ials said, Colored Movies Made New Way Double Lens Secret of New German Method Discovery of a revolutionary new way to make colored movies is being shown in Berlin by Prof - Lucian Henri Roux of Paris. The films are plain black and white. They are taken with an ordinary camera, developed by or- dinary processes, and projected on the screen by an ordinary ma- chine. The difference coshes from two lenses, one fitted on the camera that takes the photos, the other fitted on the projector. The colors are supplied in this projection lens, actually being mixed in the beans of light that casts the pictures on the screen. It is done so simply that one noted German professor of optics, when it: saw the pictures, sighed: "It's another case of Columbus and the egg, Why didn't we think of it ourseves?" The colors are strikingly natur- al. I saw, for example, a boxing Read This - match in a Paris arena. The slug- gers' bodies as in nature, were much whiter than their sunburned faces. Beads of perspiration of the boxers stood out clearly. Roux keeps the nature of his lenses a secret, except to say that he is using the principles of paral- lax. This is a common astron- omical word, describing the dis- placement of an object when seen from two different angles, Long War For The Russians? How seriously the Soviets are counting on a long war is indi- cated by orders placed in the United States which cannot be filled for eight months. One order of particular interest reveals their plans for transport- ing tanks by air. They have made the flat assertion that their trans- port planes are larger than our Douglas planes, and are capable of lifting and carrying a 15 -ton tank. Apparently, the Russians not only intend to be fighting eight months from now, but to be tak- ing the offensive. Also it would appear that German claims of having annihilated the Soviet air force are entirely unfounded. Dresden, y°i a 3j' August , Berkel Products Co., Limited, 533-535 College St., TORONTO, Ont.

Rev. 12:11. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time. -About A.D. 95, Place.—The Island of Patmos in the Aegean Sea. Our Bible speaks of terrible wars at the end of this age, greater even than those we have thus far seen, and, amazing to say, actually a war in heaven. It is concerning the terrible final conflicts of this age, and a great battle in heaven, that our lesson is concerned, and how it behooves all of us these days to know de- finitely what the Word of God has to say about these coming ev- ents. War in Heaven 7. "And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels going forth to war with the dra- gon; and the dragon warred and his angels; 8. and they prevailed not, neither was their place found any more in heaven, 9. And the great dragon was cast down, the old serpent, he that is called the Devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world; he was cast down to the earth, and his angels were cast down with hint." The scene described in these verses is not spoken of as a sign, The presence of satan in Heaven is a reality. A war there between the hosts of good and evil under their respective leaders, Michael and the Dragon is most sure. Sin was conceived in the heart of Satan. Not content to occupy a crea- ture's place, he aspired to the throne itself. The first step in the execution of judgment upon Satan is his forced dislodgment fr. m above. Satan Cast Down 10. "And l heard a great voice in Heaven saying, Now is come the salvation, and the power, and the Kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, who accuseth them before our God day and night. 11, And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb, and be- cause of the word of their testi- mony; and they loved not their life even unto death, 12. There- fore rejoice, 0 Heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe for the earth and for the sea: because the devil is gone down unto you, having great wrath, knowing that he hath but n short tinge." Hea- ven realizes that the great hour has come for the establishment of the Kingdon of God on earth. Heaven knows that the prophets have foretold of a great age of righteousness, and justice and peace, and the suppression of sin Ls about to be ushered in. We overcame Satan by the blood of the Lamb, because pleading Christ's sacrifice, Satan is sil- enced as our adversary before the throne of God. Moreover, as we think of Christ's sacrifice for us, we are made more than con- querors through Him that loved us. We can't afford to be de- feated, if we have a word of tes- timony for Christ. This is the thing that delivers us, Israel's Sufferings The concluding paragraph of this chapter is a more detailed presentation of the great theme of Israel's terrible sufferings at the end of this age, when she will be moat fiercely persecuted by the enemy of Christ and the energy of God's children. Uundoubtedly, those referred to in the last verso of this chapter are those Jews who, in this terrible time of suf- fering, have conte to 'acknowledge the Lord Jesus Christ as their per- sonal Saviour, and are living god- ly lives, Victory Through Christ 2. "And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire; and them that came off victorious from the beast, and from his image, and from the number of his name, standing by the sea of glass, having harps of God. 3. And they sing the song of Mores the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, 0 Lord God, Almighty; righteous and true are thy ways, thou Ding of the ages. 4. Who shall not fear, 0 Lord, and glorify thy name? for Thou only art holy; for all the nations shall come and wor- ship before thee; for thy right- eous acts have been made mani- fest." The company here found gathered together is made up of those who had been victorious over the beast. They had come through a time of fearful tribu- lation. The entire pleture is one f joy, and praise, end 'Is:My. SCOUTING Three Halifax Scouts receive their "Red Wings," the junior airmanship badge of The Boy Scouts Association, at the hands of Squadron Leader C. E. Creighton, When, like hundreds of other Scouts, they earn their "Silver Wings," they will have plastered the theoretical principles of flying, air navigation, aero engines and much ground work, There is a striking connection here between the triumphant song of Moses, found in Exodus 16, sung after the glorious de- liverance of the children of Israel from the pursuing Egyptians, and the song now sung by those who also had been delivered from a God -hating power, from the ene- mies of Christ, Both indicate the triumphant overthrow of proud- est earth and satanic power through submission of faith to God. Both victories are those of supernatural divine power and interposition.

POP—Late Edition I -IOW DO I KNOW WIIAT THE DATE IS ? Income Tax You r •n start paying your 1941 tax now — but you must make the first payment on or before September 30. Here's how to do it. Pay at least one twelfth of the tax you paid for 1940 each month for the next four months, September, October, November, December. In January, when you have de- termined your true tax for 1941, deduct what you have already paid, then pay the balance in eight instalments. This gives you un- til August 31, 1942, to complete your payments. There is no in- terest charged if this plan is fol- lowed. If you don't start in Septem- ber, you can't get in on this plan.

Idle War Gossip Weakens Morale Red Cross Leader In United States Advises Action Against False War Rumors and Waste Mrs, Dwight Davis, Director of the American Reii Cross Voluntary Services, said that every Alneri• can woman can help strengthen national defense by combating wild rumors which weaken morale, Mrs. Davis suggested that if a woman hears a rumor she should say to the person telling her: "Would you be willing to put that in writing so I can check it?" That would be a surprising brake on Idle gossip, she said, Mrs. Davis, slim, energetic head of 1,200,000 women enrolled in the Rod Cross Voluntary Services, is back at her desk after an inspec- tion trip to England to see how the British women are carrying on. She said the three things that have depressed her the' most since her return have been idle gossip, waste, and the jockeying for prom- inent position by women eager to help in the defense program, She declared she was shocked at the waste of vital materials in her country after seeing what is being done in England. She related she visited salvage dumps, saw the collections of bones, waste paper, rags and old metal and then saw the products—airplane wing cov- ering, clothes, blankets—made out of it, — - Two Years Too Late! "Now that Berlin and other parts of Germany are getting a taste of total air war as a result of the combined attacks of the Royal and Russian air forces, an official Nazi spokesman pleads for 'really humane warfare.' "The Nazis should have thought of II:al before they laid waste Warsaw in September, 1939; be- fore they wantonly destroyed half of Rotterdam in May, 1940, and before they began their ruthless air assaults on London, Coventry, Plymouth, Liverpool and other British cities a year ago, in which more than 40,000 civilians have been killed to date. "Nazi hypocrisy reaches new heights in this plea for 'humane warfare,' which also reveals that Nazi leaders feel the Germans can't take it," says The New York World -Telegram.

' Electric Gadgets For Rural Homes Room For More Electric, Appliances on Ontario Farms There are pr'opor'tionately more electric washing machines to On- tario farm homes served by Hydro than in urban hones of the prov- ince rowince says the Woodstock Sentinel- Review. One In eight farm homes on rural power districts has an electric refrigerator, compared with one in live of the supposedly much better equipped urban group, The electric iron is the most generally used contrivance, with one in 75 per cent of rural homes which have the current, Radios are close up, at 71.8 per cent of the satura- tion mark, and toasters are in use In 51,2 per cent of rural homes con - fleeted with hydro. Urban homes, the Commission reports, possess nearly a half -mil- lion electric irons, or 92 per cent of saturation; 77.9 per cent of the possible total of radios, 66 per cent in respect of toasters and 48,6 per cent of washers. There aro 5,361 air condtioners in urban house- holds, none in farm homes, In the "hamlet" category, the proportion of electric appliances 1s smaller, under most classifications, than either farm or urban. Women Use More In regard to variety of appliances farm women are better customers than the menfolk. Tho electric motor is the equipment most wide- ly in use on the farm itself, and there are only one-quarter as many as there are washers. The total is 8,236, or 15 per cent of saturation, Something over 7,000 electric pumps represent 13..4 per cent of the potential and after that there ja nothing higher than 6,6 per cent of saturation, which is the ratio for cream separators. There are 1,620 milking machines reported, being a ratio of one to 33 farms, which would be quite a disappoint- ment to Sir Adam Beck if he wore still here. Electric milk coolers total fewer than 1,000, electric churns less than one per cent of possible distribution. Th elast census count indicated abou t200000 farnis in Ontario, in - eluding very small ones, some of whioh obtain service under rates applicable to non-farm classes. There are many in remote districta out of reach of Hydro, and some, of course, without residential buildings. The Commission esti- . mated some time ago that about 75,000 standard !or large farms would comprise the ultimate total Oust could be served, but the reg- ulation permitting service on the basis of two farms per mile has increased the number that can be served. Last year 1,340 miles of rural Iine extension were approv- ed, adding 9,865 customers. The aggregate load supplied all rural Hydro consumers in the province was 70,018 horsepower, an increase of 13,6 per cent over 1939. Dnieper Dam Is Destroyed Russia announced recently the deliberate destruction of her proud- est industrial achievement, the great Dnieperstroy dam and all its works, in grins proof of the Soviet determination to leave for the In- vading Germans no single instru- ment of value. Thus carne to an end after nine years of reality a project which had been a Russian dream since the days of Catherine the Great. and which was completed in the fourth year of the first Soviet live -year Plan by a United States engineer, the late Col. Hugh L. Cooper. All measures were taken not to permit the Germans to make use of the dam and its machinery. Tho $110,000,000 keystone of the entire Central Ukraine industrial system was shattered, Its great, turbines, which first turned in May, 1932, had supplied a surrounding area of 70,000 square miles and a popu• Wien of 16,000,000 persons with an annuai output of 2,500,000 kilo- watt hours of electric current. Gone now, are the 140 -foot dam structure, one of the largest in the world, it's half -mile length, which served as a bridge across the Dnieper, and the nine generat- ing units on the west bank, the largest ever built. Ruined, too, are the three navi- gation locks on the east bank, the feature t'hich first had attracted Russians to the idea of a dam as a means of drowning the falls which had prevented deepwater shipping upriver to Kiev. Premier Joseph Stalin added the hydro -electric feature, and the dam was begun in 1927, No Ont. Election "At The Moment" Premier Mitchell Hepburn said in an interview recently that he fs not planning an election in On- tario "at the moment." He said that at any event "1 would not call an election with Lt. -Col. George Drew, Conservative lead- er, in England. That would be unethical and unsportsmanlike." Week Of Reconsecration Starts War's Third Year Twelve million Canadians—still free—stand girded for their third year of war to preserve that freedom, September 10, 1939, those twelve millions, unhesitatingly and pf their own free will, elected to resist the challenge of unprovoked Nazi aggressors, and thus vowed never to lay aside the sword until the world truly shall be safe for all peoples, little as well as big, minorities as well as majorities. September 10, 1941, ends two years of Canada at war. And the Government of Canada has proclaimed the week of September 10-17 u "a week of reconsecration of the Canadian people to the democratic cause against Nazi tyranny , . , in national honor for those who, on land, on the sea and in the air, are defenders of our country, and in proud memory for those valiant hearts who have gone out from among us in the most precious of all sacrifices for our common freedom.' Two years ago, Canada's soldiers, sailors and airmen, including reserves, all together totalled a mere 68,000 officers and men, To- day, the fighting forces, including reserves, number 490,000 of all ranks, in the British Isles today are more than 100,000 Canadian soldiers, sailors and airmen. Over 1,200 Canadians have figured on casualty lists; 736 of them killed in action, 195 missing, the remainder dead from natural causes. Defence of Canada's own shores is tightening. Along Atlantic and Pacific coasts are patrolling air squadrons, anti-aircraft and coastal batteries, supporting divisions of troops. In two years, all this Canadian fighting power. Yet it is not enough. The Canadian Active Army is calling for at least 7,000 volun- teers per month.. The Royal Canadian Navy plans to increase its ships from 250 to 400 and to boost its personnel from 23,000 to 27,000 by March of next year, The Royal Canadian Air Force is to send more and more blue -clad squadrons overseas; to the 1,000 radio locator experts and other specialists already in Britain are to be added another 2,500, to go this year. And Canadian women are to be voluntarily enlisted in auxiliary forces of the Army, and the Air Force, to release more and more fighting men for active duty over- seas. Two years ago, Canada was spending less than $1,000,000 a day on arms, To -day Canada is spending between $3,000,000 and $4,000,000 a day on war; two years ago, the arms hill was less than a million. By March 31 next, the war bill will have passed 412,000,- 000,000, including well over half a billion to finance purchases for Britain. In addition to a: sunning heavier taxes, Canadians have bought war bonds and savings certificates worth $(,160,000,000; they have contributed about $20,000,000 to auxiliary war services, and outy'ight gifts to the Government total nearly $2,000,000, Food shipped to Britain includes 200,000,000 bushels of wheat, 7,000,000 barrels of flour, 13,000,000 lbs. of honey, nearly 15,000,- 000 dozen eggs, millions of pounds of concentrated milk, thousands of tons of canned goods, By December, 800,000,000 lbs, of pork products will have been sent; by March ne:;t, 112,000,0(10 lbs. of cheese. At the dawn of the third year of war, all Canadians are tu;ied by their Government to reconsecr'ate themselves "to the democratic cause against Nazi tyranny." Reconsecration Hedge "At this time of peril for my country, in this the evil powers which threaten to engulf the earth, conr:cious of my duty toward Canada and toward my fellow man, I solemnly pledge before Almighty God that 1 shall do all that 1.es within my pow; er, and deem no sacrifice too great, to bring about the victory el our arms, that right may triumph, that justice may prevail and that a righteous peace may reign throughout the world; to thi.. end 1 reconsecrate myself, with faith, with courage and with the knowledge that, though the path he hard and the day he dark, our efforts can not fail," Reconsecration Prayer Text of the prayer and grace: - 0 Lord of hosts, in this time of our reconsecration to thy service and in defence of the light brought into this world by Thy Beloved Son, we turn to Thee in prayer. We pray for our fighting men on land, on the sea and in the air that they may be imbued with courage to persevere and strength to vanquish the dark forces which now seek to rule this earth. We pray for endurance for all those who, in any way, are en- gaged in this great conflict, and, for our peoples, understanding of the truth. , We pray for mercy fur the stricken, consolation for the bereaved and eternal rest for those who, having blazed the path, have been gathered to Thine Arms. These things we ask, 0 Lord, so that in the fullness of time the dread conflict may cease, the right may triumph, and out children be brought up to serve 'Thee and to do those things which are of good renown, to know and to spread the Christian light.—Amen, Reconsecration Grace For the courage of our fighting men and the devotion of those who stand behind them, for our continued freedom and for these blessings of our unscarred earth, we give thanks in this week of reconsecration to the Lord of hosts, Who is the only Defender of the right.—Amen. REG'LAR FELLERS—What a Life! VOICE OF THE PRESS AGAINST THE GERMAN PEOPLE When are we Americah,s and British going to get it through our heads that we aro fighting a war against the German people? That is what an American friend of ours asked us, In the last war, he said, we kept repeating that we were not fight- ing against the German people, but against the Kaiser and the Junkers. Well, we beat the Kaiser and look what wo have now, Wo have' the Nazis, who are far worse than the Kaiser ever thought of being. There would never have been a Kaiser and there would not be a Hitler, if the German people did not want leaders of that sort, They have assumed power because the German people were anxious to havo warlike leaders to guide Ger- many to world domination, The 'sooner wo realize we are fighting the German people and the sooner we understand that the German people are sufficiently be- hind Hitler to support him in this war, the sooner wo will know that we have to wage ruthless war to win, —Windsor Daily Star, —v— "THE FUTILITY OF IT ALL" With word of the ordered destruc• tion"•of the gigantic Dnieper dam in the Soviet, the complete idiocy which must have motivated an aggressive Reich to world conflict again stands stark before us. In England and across Europe it wan bad enough that cultured traditions should be blasted with the crumb- led walls and towers of library and cathedral, Now the efforts of a struggling, self -improving people are benig blown to nought, Years have been spent in making pauper - ed parts of the world livable, When the smoke has cleared all that must be accomplished once more. It is as it our own Can. adian churches, our cities and our universities, our canals, our hydro plants and our factories were pul- verized, and we were cast upon the land as our pioneer forefathers were, That is the futility of it, —Galt Reporter, —y— DOUBLING EGG PRODUCTION Making two eggs grow where one grew before may sound like a fantastic dream, but it is entirely practical. The Government calls attention to the need for increas- ed egg production, and It is with- in the power of the farmers to bring this about. Proper breeding, feeding and care of poultry will accomplish much toward increasing the egg yield. This has been proven time and time again. Many of tile breed- ers will require assistance, in the way of directions as to proper methods, and this is available.

Julius Cromwell, a blinded ,World \Var veteran, returned with his bride, young, beautiful and t ty, to the little village of Garth In England, where he had lived as a boy. They aro in love with each other but his wife is jealous of the blind man's world, realm of his own which she cannot under- stand or eater, She mistakes hta aloofness for discontent, A barrier comes between theta. Each feels it and each is power- less to prevent the approaching estrangement. Matters are brought to a crisis when Julius hears of his wife's growing friendship with a personable n'er-do-well, Even a.s Julius could bring forth all that was best in his fellow illagers; helping them to solve their difficulties, so he, with Ills sensitive and fair mind, eventually worked out a happy solution of his own difficult problem.

She put the tele- phone down, and sat staring at it, Lucy came in and found her a few minutes later, "I wondered If you'd like a couple sets of tennis, or a swiss in that adorbale pool?" she suggested. "I'm not going to stake a hookworm of you, you know," "Yes ---of course—" said Valerie obediently," "in other words, yes and no! laughed Lucy. "What's happened to you, kitten?" Valerie sat and looked at Lucy and said nothing, not knowing what to say, There was nothing un- comfortable about It, as there often was when you were supposed to talk and didn't, Lucy just sat and looked out of the window, And then suddenly, Valerie spoke almost before she knew it.. "It was the telephone—Mrs, Waterford, You know—Elise, Do you some- times find things quite puzzling?" Laity brought her thoughts back from the broad lawn beyond the windows, " cti_ten," she said. "But puzzles aren't so bad, You cau slake a kind of game of them, 1t yuo just take thews as they come, It's really not so much the puzzle as what you do with It." "Oh—I see," said Valerie, It was a new angle, and suggested possi- bilities.

The statement said 537 of those destroyed were shot down into the sea, and 581 additional planes were damaged, Of the ]otter, "203 were observed to be so hea- vily damaged as to be classed as probably destroyed although they were not seen to crash."

CHAMBERS Some Requests About Lamb The leg of lamb for roasting and the chops for broiling are the generally well known cuts of lamb hut, to be economical, con- centrate on breast, shank and neck. In cooking lamb the cardinal principle is the same as all meat cookery, that is, "cook at a mod- erate temperature, at least most of the tune," Any cleat cooked at high temperature loses juice shrink and flavour and become dry. For roasting tender cuts there are two important rules, The fist,—use no lid on the pan; the second,—add no water, Covered roasters and added water go to snake steam and when meat is cooked with steam the flavor is lost and also the meat juices. Here are two general hints on Iamb, the fat on lamb hardens at higher temperature than the fat on other meats so be sure to serve lamb either piping hot or cold; not lukewarm, Stuffed Breast of Lamb 3 lbs. breast of lamb 1 tablespoon minced onion % cup diced celery 3 cup butter 6 cups soft bread crumbs 1 teaspoon salt Dash of pepper 14 teaspoon sage 14teaspoon nutmeg teaspoon thyme 1 egg slightly beaten 34 cup boiling water H cup mint jelly cup vinegar 3 tablespoons flour 2 cups water Sprinkle the lamb with salt and pepper. Fry the onion and celery in the butter until deli- cately browned, Add the bread crumbs and cook about one min- ute, nixing gently. Remove from the heat and add the salt, pepper seasonings aid egg, tossing with a fork until well mixed. Place stuffing on one side of each piece of lamb and fold the other side over the stuffing, slaking two or three rolls, Tie each roll separ- ately and place in a baking pan. Bake in an uncovered dish in hot oven for 15 minutes. Add the boiling water, cover and bake in a moderate oven for 1% hours, Spread with mixture of jelly and vinegar. Bake uncovered for 16 minutes logger, basting frequent. ly. Pour off the excess fat, leav- ing two tablespoons in the pan with the dripping. Add the flour, blend well and add two cups water. Stir constantly and cook until smooth and thickened. Sea- son to taste and serve with the lamb. Yields 6 servings.

Probably Seize French Islands if Germany tries to establish a consulate on the French islands of St. Pierre and Miquelon in the Gulf of St. Lawrence the Cana- dian Government would have troops walk in and seize the is- lands. This was the very definite opin- io1 expressed in Ottawa regard- ing a reported radio announce- ment from Lyons, France, of the Nazi intention to send a consul to the French isles, Such a report is not credited, but if anything of the kind is at- tempted, the Canadian Govern- ment and the British Government no doubt would move promptly. The islands are only 12 miles from Newfoundland and compar- atively close also to Nova Scotia aid the Gaspe coast of Quebec.
