---
Over in the Dermot Street Set-
tlement house, Berbera Jo told
Penny her Version of the meeting
with Busch, The child's eye were
shining as oho said, " . 8111, all
the time 1t•, Busch kept ,sittin'
there, smoking that smelly ole
cigar•, And just when 1 was sure
he was going to say `No,' Townly,
got right on the desk and told him
what wonderful kills ter were and
hew if we didn't get sunshine and
11'0511 air lve'd all wind up with
pickets,"
"With whut?" fenny asked,
"Pickets."
Penny got it and luughed, "Dar-
ling, you mean rickets.
It was all the sante to Barbera
Jo. The results were what count-
ed. "Well anyway he was won-
derful and finally Itlr. Busch said
he'd let hien du it and Penny, all
I could think of w'a3 Tommy be-
ing like Abraham Lincoln freeing
the slaves."
Penny smiled but as she thought
of 'Pommy her eyes were bright
with hero worship too. "I'll have
to tell him what you said. IIe'll
like that."
Barbara Jo nodded violently.
"1 wish you would. Goo he's ex-
ceptional. Too bad he's not better
looking."
Penny looked at her in amaze-
ment, "Why Barbara Jo he's flne
looking. He's got character in his
face. Why, he never stops to
think of himself at all, But•he'll
be paid back." Dreamily, she be-
gan to hunt, "The Man 1 Love."
Barbara Jo giggeld. "You know
Penny if it wets anybody else hut
you 1'd be jealous."
Penny squeezed her chin. "If it
were anybody else but him you
could have Ilium."
Rehearsals gut under way the

"IF WE CARE ENOUGH"
Miss Byrne Hope Saunders,

gave all of Canada a motto for

What better rallying cry could
be coined for this country at war?
In it lies the whole spirit that Wb

Thus far, there have been too

By Changes In British Cabinet
A wave of criticism has been
slowly gathering force against
Prime ,11 ini.,ter Churchill's gov-
ernment as the British lost hold

back in Libya, as the German
ships of tear escaped through the
Strait of 1)over. The nation With
demanding explanation, insisting
in changes in the cabinet in order
to strengthen Britain's tsar effort.
Public opinion in (;rent Britain
is a mighty force, and M r, Churclh.
ill is a strong, -minded man. Such,
however, is the potency Of British
democracy that he bowed to the
demands of an aroused people by
making changes essential to the
strengthening of his governinent.
The shake-up was a thorough ono
and the present small group of
cabinet members will now be able
to devote all their energies to the
conducting of the war,
Closer Ties With Russia
Sir Stafford Cripps, former
Ambassador to Russia, was ap-
pointed leader of the ]louse of
Commons, IIie entry into the
cabinet appeared to be a response
to growing demands that his views
on closer relation with Russia be
given more authority. Sir Staf-
ford knows Russia, her strength
and her trends, Isn't Russia the
only nation that has conducted a
brilliant war aganist Hitler, and
the only nation that has carried
out a grand strategy? General
MacArthur, in a greeting to the
Red Army, said: "In my lifetime
I have participated in a numbs►
of wars and have witnessed others,
as well ea studying in great, detail
the campaigns of outstanding
leaders of the pest. In none have
I observed such effective re-
sistance to the heaviest blows of
a hitherto undefeated enemy fol-
lowed by a smashing counter-at-
tack, The scale and grandeur of
this effort marks it as the great-
est military achievement in all
history."
Task of Red Army
The courage and endurance of
the Russians must be backed up
with the machinery of war, and
Britain and the United States
must supply all that is necessary
to enable the Russians to sus-
tain their offensive against the
invaders and to drive thele from
their land. The task of the Red
Army is clearly stated in Premier
Stalin's speech to Soviet Russia's
200,000,000 people in the twenty-
fourth anniversary of the found-
ing of the Red Army of Russia.
He said "statements appear from
time to time in the foreign press
to the effect that the Red Army
aims at the destruction of the
German people. This is a wic-
ked, .foolish libel, It is probable
that this war will bring about the
mrd of 11itler's clique, We would

and the German state remain
The task of the 1ted Army consists
of liberating from the German
invaders our Soviet, land, in liber•
aging front the whip of the Ger-
man invaders the citizens of our
villages and towns,"
Responsibility For Defeats
It is important to understand.
that responsibility for the unsat-
isfactory conduct of the war does
not fall on any one man, but on
a system that made early detente
inevitable.
Ile fore this war, the British
Empire was a loose association of
nations and colonies, relying on
the mother country for protec-
tion. None maintained an ade-
quate fighting force, not even
Britain herself, Britain did, how-
ever, have a powerful navy which
was considered sufficient to pro-
tect her possessions and cora-
me: ce in all parts of the world,
Reliance was also placed in the
French fleet, particularly for con-
trol of the Mediterranean. Bri-
tain depended on the French
armies—they failed. She de-
pended on American naval super -
laity in the Pacific—that failed,
Task of British
The task of total war was too
great for British preparedness.
Britain was called upun to protect
her island home, to safeguard the
Mediterranean shores of Africa,
to build up an army in 'the Middle
East, to arm her forces in the
Far East, to furnish war mater-
ials to Russia and China.
It was not ao much a matte/
of faulty strategy on Britain's
part but a case of sheer physical
incapacity that caused initial re-
verses. The British Empire was
not equipped for war and no
government, whether headed by
Churchill or any other elan, could
have hoped to achieve victories
with the materials on hand,
In the reconstruction of his
cabinet, Mr, Churchill retained
the post of Minister of Defence
but, to free himself of routine
duties, appointed Mr. Clement R.
Attlee to the new position of
Deputy Prime Minister,
The changes made by Mr.
Churchill should meet with the
widest approval, Thee is a feel-
ing of great relief that the Prime
Minister has by his prompt ac-
tion eased the growing tension in
Parliament. Renewed confidence
will now be felt in the cabinet
end the national unity will be
strengthened for whatever lies
ahead.

"You dance heavenly, Mr. Bolt!"
WINTER CONVOY
By Lieut. E. H. Bartlett, R.C.N.V.R.
Behind closed doors a question
of nasal w;u•fare was under dis-
cussion.
"If any enemy submarine is
sighted, the sighting; shill must
open fire immediately," a quietly -
spoken officer was saying,
"If you are nut sure whether
he's an enemy, open fire anyway,"
he continued, 'Then, grimly, "we
must. 1101 haste opportunities."
There were appreciative nods
from his audience. They were
captains all, plasters of ships
bound for the war ureas. Not
captains of fillips built for war,
but 111e11 whose peacetime cargo
carriers have been armed with
go11s Against both SUbiiiitii11es and
aircraft, so that they will have
some means of defence and so
that "opportunities will not be
wasted,"
They were sitting in what the
war has made familiar as a "con-
voy conference," getting their
final instructions before their
fleet sailed from a Canadian port,
outward bound with food and sup.
plies and vital necessities for
those other parts of an Empire
at war.
It was a formal conference,
with formality natural to omen
bearing responsibility. There wee
nothing of the atmosphere of
class -room or lecture -hall, though,
for this was a conference of equals
recognizing that each had his own
duty to perform, and that each
was dependent upon the other.
On the one hand were highly
trained, keenly specialized Cana-
dian naval officers, with all the
experience and knowledge of the
Navy behind them. And all the
knowledge, too, of the hazards
into which the conferees were go-
ing, and which they were to share.
On the other hand were the
captains of the merchant ships,
Each, In his own ship supreme.
Each, after years of command,
grown used to independent action
and to making his own decisions.
And each, at the dictates of war,
abandoning his prized independ-
ence for the extra strength and
the extra safety which come with
the sending of ships to sea in
closely guarded convoys.
They were veterans of the At-
lantic Battle at the conference.
Presiding was a "convoy commo-
dore," the man who was to direct
the fleet from the bridge of one
of the merchant ships. Already,
this war, he has many crossings
behind hint, and a reputation fol
"getting the ships through."
"Getting them through," he
vaid bluntly, was the only thing
which mattered to hint.
"I don't intend to leave any-
body behind, we all will get across
together," he declared, "We
don't want any straggler's, and we
don't want anybody losing the
convoy at night. If you are hav-
ing any trouble, let lee know, and
we'll do something about it."
Calmly and confidently ire out-
lined his plans. Each captain had
a copy of the convoy orders, and
a chart showing the cruising dis-
positions of the ships, Orders and
charts were given close attention
AA the commodore went over then/
point by point.
This to be done if a ship was
damaged; that if the enemy at-
tacked. Precautions to he taken
against making too much smoke,
which would give away the con-
voy position in daytime; or against
showing lights, the flare of a
careless snatch or the glare of an
improperly shielded lamp, which
would thaw danger at night.
Smaller points, too, which these
men of experience recognize as
being important. The need for
damping rubbish overboard only
at certain dark hours, so that no
trail only be left on the sea's sur-
face to guide the submarines
which strike from below, Care
that no slick of oil be left to pro-
vide yet another trail.
Carefully the captains fluted
each point as it was made. 'They
wear no uniforms, and do not
claim to be fighting men, but they
are 1ne11 wise 111 the ways of sea
warfare and know the tricks of
circumventing the enemy as well
as the art of fighting hint if he
appears. To then/ this study of
convoy orders was not an empty
gesture, staled through repetition,
but a meeting of their board of

strategy, Making sure that all was
In order before their fleet put
out to sea.
Sitting with then were uni-
formed officers of the fighting
service, captains of Canadian es
cort ships which were to throw
their shield around the merchant
fleet. They, too, studied their
orders in intent silence, complet-
ing their plains so that the protec-
tion they could give would he of
the greatest.
The, conference drew to a close.
'l'he commodore had given his last
verbal orders, his next would be
by signal from the bridge of the
merchant ship in which he would
lead the fleet. There remained
only his good wishes.
"A good and safe passage to
you all," he said, "and the beat
of good luck. I hope we meet
safely on the other side."
The wishes were echoed by the
Naval Control Service Officer and
by the Naval Officer in charge of
the port where the fleet had as-
sembled, Not effusive wishes, by
any means, just a quiet but ex-
tremely sincere "safe and pleas-
ant voyage."
There is no room for demon-
strativeness In a convoy confer-
ence, and the men who take their
part in It are not looking for kind
words. More satisfying to these
merchant ship captains was the
knowledge that the naval auth-
orities had bent their every effort
to making their voyage "safe and
-.+_- eY,-.-WYe, 11_ MU rn_
pleasant." That they had watched
over the arrival of their ships in
Canadian waters, had cleared the
way for then through the intrica•
ales of unloading and loading, re-
fuelling and taking supplies on
board, arranged for minor repulse
and been of hand to straighten
away the difficulties and delays
which beset a ship in port, And,
In all this, had done their job
under the cloak of secrecy with
which they cover ship movements
as one of the most important fac-
tors for safety.
The conference bloke up, anti
there was a general mingling of
all those who had taken part. A
senior naval officer (four rings
of gold on his sleeve told of his
captain's rani(, and rows of col-
oured ribbons on his coat told of
the service he had already given
his country) teas host, for the
conference had been held in the
ward room of his base. For that
matter, he had been host to the
captains for the time they had
been in port, throwing the ward
room open to them as a club,
where they could relax in their
short hours off duty. Business,
for the moment, was over. The
men who had met, on equal foot-
ing, as conferees at a board of
strategy now were meeting as mu-
tually appreciative friends.
There was good reason for their
easy friendship for the bond be-
tween them, these captains in
lounge suits and their brothers in
uniform, has been forged strongly
during the months they have been
fighting -- and winning --- the
Battle of the Atlantic together.

A Weekly Column About This and That in The Canadian Army
Funny how on thing leads to
another, isn't it? Last week's
column ended with a reference to
the pronunciation of the word,
"Lieutenant."
Two correspondents and a largo
volume of the Oxford Dictionary
supplied information on the origin
of British mispronunciation of an
Anglicized French word. As the
two correspondents (could they be
the suns total of this column's
readers?) also made some entirely
irrelevant comments upon the
writer's mentality we'll pass them
by and concentrate on the diction-
ary's explanation.
Apparently both pronunciations
are correct. The dictionary points
out that the derivation is from the
Latin "locum tenens" which be-
came in French, "lieu"—in place
of, "tenant" --to hold. In the
140 and 15111 centuries English
scriveleds wrote the word vari-
ously i1S "lied" and "Iicv"—ten-
ant and the latter spelling later
degenerated into "lav" or "luf"
—tenant, lienee the British pro -
nu nc in t ion--"leftenant."
ro••nuncintion—"lefteuant."
Yes, 1 know the pronunciation
doesn't match the spelling. But
just think for a minute—how do
you pl•01101111ce "plough," "cough,"
or "through," for example?
The foregoing isn't 0.s irrele-
vant as it might seem for the
subject of today's essay is ---offi-
cers. Officals all the way from
Lance -Corporal to Field \larsha1.
You didn't know Lance -Corpor-
als were officers? Sure they are
—and very important ones, too!
To be meticulous, he is a Non -
Commissioned officer, one of the
three types of officers to be found
'in the individual citizen's army.
Another type is the officer who
holds ills Majesty's commission
ranging in rank from Second
Lieutenant to Field Marshal.
There are more Lieutenants than,
Field Marshals!
And thele are :more Lance -Cor-
porals than Lieutenants.
To get the record straight here
is the infantry list. Lance -Con
oral, Corporal, Sergeant, Company
Q01u•tcruutaet' Sergeant, all these
are Non -Commissioned Officers.
Next comes, Company Se•geaui
Major, Regimental Quartermaster
Sergeant, Regimental Sergeant-
Major; these are warrant officers.
Commissioned officers are, Second

Lieutenant, Lieutenant, Captain,
Major, Lieutenant-Colonel, Col-
onel, Brigadier, Major-General,
Lieutenant -General, General and
Field Marshal.
And don't ask me why a Lieut-
enant -General is senior to a Major-
General when u Lieutenant is jun-
ior to a Major!
Where does the Canadian Army
got its officers? The answer is,
front the ranks. Every candidate
for a commission today, except in
a few cases where civilian tech-
nical qualifications are the decid-
ing factor in the appointment, is
dressing i►1 khaki serge at the
time his name is considered.
Ile may reach eonlmiss;oned
rank in one of two ways. I al-
most said one is the hard way.
As a matter of fact both ways
are hard from the point of view
of the outsider but (mite possible
of attainment by the soldier w•ho
has the necessary quality of lead-
ership, educational qualifications,
and guts.

way up through the non-commis-
sioned and warrant ranks. Oth-

terial for calling cards?

H the stories one is forced to hear

aro yours. The habit of polite
attention is not a Bard one to
acquire and will win many friends,
2. White bristol board, glazed

thickness,
8. No, You are not asking a
favor in this instance and in no
way under obligation,

prove rather annoying to the
other employees in your immedi-
ate vicinity, who may be trying
to concentrate on some problem.
It is more thoughful not to in-
dulge in any disturbing noises,
6. To have something interest-
ing to say. One should never
force himself to write when he

municate.
6. No.

Gas Rationing
A reduction of one-ixth in the
basic gasoline Cation for Febru-
ary, Jnu•ch and April has been
announced in London, England.
Private owns rs of automobiles
of 20 horsepower )'r over will re-
ceive 20 gallons for the three
months.
What Science
Is Doing
450 MILES PER GALLON—IF ..
Gasoline is suffici:ntly power-
ful to propel a car 450 miles to
the gallon, petroleum technolo-
gists say, if means could be de-
vised to obtain complete effici-
ency of consumption.
With fourteen gallons of gaso-
line a 1CW model of any popular
make could do 6,300 miles at
twenty utiles per hour on a per-
fectly level road, provided there
were no power losses through fric-
tion, heat radiation, wind resis-
tance, and a few other factors.
The trouble, it is explained, is
not in the gasoline, one gallon of
which contains 99,000,000 foot-
pounds of potential power, but in
the difficulty of building vehicles
and highways which will permit
colnpfete advantage to be taken
of this dynamic fuel.
Scientific progress will do much
to improve operating efficiency of
the motor vehicle, and also will
improve the highway, it is believ-
ed, but the complete elimination
of power losses cannot even be
imagined at the present time—
and probably not in the future,
FROST -CRACKED HIGHWAYS
A recently developed and effec-
tive method of preventing frost
heaves from cracking and break-
ing pavements relies on rock salt
as a road base, both in new con-
struction and in repair work and
patching, The salt reduces the
freezing point of moist or water-
logged soil, but it is no substitute
for adequate drainage, excavation
or backfill with granular mater-
ia. Highway engineers in the
Northeastern United States, as
well as in Canada, report that
practically no frost heaving has
occurred on salt -treated sub -
grades, even though the amount
of salt incorporated in the soil is
only five pounds per square yard
of area.
HOW CAN I?
Q. --glow can 1 make use of
left -over oatmeal?
A.—The cup or, two of oatmeal
left from breakfast will snake de-
licious muffins for luncheon. To
one cupful of cooked oatmeal add
one and a half cupfuls of flour,
three tablespoons of sugar, four
teaspoons of baking powder, a
little salt, one egg, half a cupful
of sheet milk and two tablespoon-
fuls of melted butter. I3ake in
buttered gear pans in hot oven.
Q.—How can 1 take proper care
of the electric iron?
A.—Make a habit of rubbing
the electric iroh once a week with
paraffin, applied on a soft cloth.
This will keep the iron clean and
smooth,
Q.—flow can I avoid watery
eyes when peeling onions?
A.—It is said that a cork held
between the teeth while peeling
onions prevents the eyes from be-
ing affected,
Q. --(low should tissue paper be
used for dusting?
A.—Tissue paper, slightly moi-
stened, will remove dust easily.
It is excellent for keeping a brass
bed looking bright, also silver toi-
let articles, mirrors and windows.
It leaves no lint, and does not, of
course, need to be washed when
the work is done, but simply
burned.
Q.—With what should baked
bananas he served?
A.—Baked bananas are delic-
ious when served with pork chops
or ham, After they are pecold,
place in a buttered dish, season
slightly, then sprinkle paprika and
butter over the top.
Australia Mobilizes
Men and Resources
Prince Minister John Curtin an-
nounced recently the war cabinet
had been directed to mobilize
all human and material resources
in Australia for the defence of
the commonwealth against the
Japanese.
Austalia was put on a full war
footing in answer to Curtin's call
for mobilization of the island con-
tinent's manpower and resources.
"That means clearly and spec-
ifically that every person in
this country is now at the service
of the government to work for the
defence of Australia," he said,
in a mobilization statement.
"Only two things stand between
us and the overthrow of every -
we have and hope to have. These
are the heroism and fighting pow-
er of our men going to battle and
the industry, zeal and devotion
of the amen left behind."
In his statement on mobiliza-
tion, Curtin said:
"We have reached the stage
when a new way of life is impel-
led on us. All your leisure now
—whether due to industrial regu-
lation or your fortunate position
—must be devoted to the service
of your fellow men , . .
"The challenge has been flung
down. Adversity has never cowed
you, overwhelming odds have ne-
ver intimidated you, and today I
call on you to invoke all the best
qualities of your ancestry. Go
forth to the workshop and fac-
tory to work there as long as you
can stand."
Marginal Mines
Resume Operations
Since the price of mercury has
gone up from $162 to $215 for a
flash of 76 pounds in the last
year, some of the marginal alines
have been able to resume opera-
tions, states the Windsor Star.
The prices have been the highesi
for any prolonged period since
the last war.
Mexico produces about 18,000
flasks of mercury annually. Ja-
pan used to bid higher than the
United States for the metal, but
the Americans have been getting
the total Mexican export for the
last few months, Apart from pro-
duction in the United States, the
Mexican mines provide most of
the mercury used by the Ameri-
cans.
The way the Japanese were
purchasing' this Mexican, mercury
is another proof of the prepara-
tions that were made by Japan
for the present war. Tokio ex-
tended a long arm to gather in the
necessities for munitions, while
other countries still hoped peace
could he sustained,

Have You Heard?
The Negro sexton of a wealthy'
church had a stylish—anti expen-
sive — wife whose extravagance
was creating an ever -widening;' gap
between his income and his ex-
penses. Ile decided to write the
church officials and apply for 811
increase in salary. His letter, eta
a whole, was not masterpiece,
but its final sentcl,ce was. It
rend;
"It's Blighty hard to keep a
sealskin wife on a muskrat. sal-
ary,"
"Had you heard that What-
chacallit's daughter and
Whosit's son—the boy that's
in the army — were married
the other day?"
"Yes," replied the other,
"but this is the first time I've
heard the real details."
A dapper little man applied for
a separation order to be made out
against his wife en the ground of
cruelty.
When asked by the magistrate
if he could prove his case, he re-
plied sleekly: "One bight 1 dreamt
I won $100,000, and the following
morning my wife nearly killed me
for not putting it in the bank be-
fore I woke up."
'Traffic Officer: "As soon
as 1 saw you come around the
curve I said to myself, 'Forty-
five, at least.' "
Woman Driver: "Well,
you're off. This hat is what
makes me look so old."
"I came across a characteristic
example of the war joke trait,
when I went into a London tavern
for lunch the other day, On one
wall was a big printed sign which
said—"In the event of a raid, this
house will remain open—in the
event of a direct hit, it will close
immediately."
Herbert: "Who was the
smallest man in history?"
Jasper: "I'm ignorant,
who?"
Herbert; "The Roman sol-
dier who went to sleep on his
watch."
Hugh had ridden around the
pony track twice with the pony
walking slowly. The third time
his daddy decided to go with hint
and let the pony trot, After
bouncing halfway around the
track, Hugh said to his father
desperately, "Daddy, I want to sit
down."
Officer (examining re-
eruit)—Have you any scars
on you?
Recruit—No, sir, but I can

Farms and Homes
Are Danger Spots
So you think you're "safe at
home".
More than 30,000 persons lose
their lives manually in the United
States largely becnusi of literal
acceptance of that expression, the
National Safety Council said in
starting a new please of n nation-
wide emergency safety campaign.
Col, John Stillwell, council
president, said: "It is within our
power to change the conditions
which permit 37,000 deaths and
over 5,000,000 injuries annually
in farm and home accidents, We
mist search out the formula for
leaking' our homes the havens of
safety they are mistakenly be-
lieved to be."
W. H. Cameron, illilnagillg di.
rector of the council, asserted "in
85 percent of all accidents there
is a human failure of some kind."
National Safety Council records
show home accidents are second
only to traffic Mishaps as the na-
tion's chief killer, 32,000 and
40,000 respectively in 19.11, Farm
accidents fatalities totalled 4,500
in 1940, making agriculture the
nation's most dangerous industry.
Moro than 10,000,000,000 con-
tainers were used by the United
States canning industry in 1989.

IN MEMORY OF A '
GREAT MAN
The Late Sir Frederick Ranting
A year ago Sir Frederick Bunt-
ing was flying over the sea in the
service of itis country when he
wan killed in an airplane ncci-
deut. His tu:'siot, was to corre-
late the results of aviation medi-
cal research hrre in Canada with
results obtained by scientific in-
vestigation in the Motherlands,
Last wee':: ;sir Frederick's death
was narked b: a special service
at the Univti-ity of 'Toronto, in
opening the service, 1)r, 1i, J.
Cody, president of the University,
Said ",Sir Frederick ilanting's life
is n challenge to all Canadian
youth to use imagination, energy
and knowledge in the service of
mankind." Ile was "one of the
world's greatest benefactors ---
the discoverer of insulin, n direc-
tor of research in many fields of
medicine, n Haut of singular mod-
esty, unselfishness and friendli-
110ss,"
The University of Toronto has
planned to hold a lecture on n1o(11.
cal research each year on the an-
niversary of Sir Frederick's death.
In delivering the first lecture last
week, Dr. C. J, Mackenzie of the
University of Saskatchewan said
that Sir Frederick's success had
been responsible for development
of the whole field of medical re-
search in Canada and had given
it impetus all over the world, "It
may well he," he said, "that fut-
ure generations will reckon his
eolttribution in this regard ns even
greater than his contribution of
insulin." - ----__

Japanese Caused
Real Emergency
Nie have ample evidence that
the country is completely consci•
ous of its danger and that sacri-
fices will cheerfully be made, ('ol-
lier's relates. A friend of ours
has a colored cook who, if she has
any faults at all, may he some-
what too aggressively religious,
Tiro other night she addressed her
employer as follows: "Ma'am, 1
been cookie' fo' you twenty years.
I always Clone my hest, 1 ant a
good church member. 1 don't
curse. I don't use tobacco, I
don't drink gin. I don't, drink
whisky. I don't bear no false
witness against nobody. But,
nla'mn, the Bible say wino is com-
fortin' and these Jap folks k usin'
ate up so, I was wonderin' if you
4in't got a drat, of port '.vine."
Sowing Grass Seed
Frr'm An Airplane
Sowing grays seed by airplane is
the latest wrinkle out on the
rands.
Jack Frost and Roy Arledge,
busy with a range improvement
program, hired a pilot to scatter
grass seed and Italian rye over
their cattle lands,
The plane carries 300 pounds
of seed on each trip and sows it
in about 10 minutes. With ideal
conditions, the pilot scatters
around 12,000 pounds a day, He
flies at 200 feet,

ever -popular "Smoke Gets in your
Eyes." Her second number,
"Angels of Mercy" was written
by Irving Berlin in honour or

as this program was dedicated

delightful solo seemed a fitting

could in aid of this worthy cause.

words the work of the Society,

support given.

viction of war-torn England was

That next to active military
service itself there was no higher
opportunity for serving the coun-
try at this time than helping youth
become good citizens was the de -
duration of President Roosevelt
during Itis radio broadcast to the
Boy Scouts of America on theft
recent 32nd anniversary, "As
one who has been interested in
Scouting over many year's," said
the President, "it has been most
heartening to have so many evi-
dences of the practical value of
the Scout training as we orgailize
our ruined forces for the tasb
ahead of us, We must remember
that next to active military service
itself there is no higher oppor•
tunity for serving our country
than helping youth to carry on is
their efforts to snake themselves
physically strong, mentally awake
and morally straight, and prepar
ed to help their country to the
full in time of war, as well as in
time of peace,"

THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING.
Time.—The dates in this lesson
are of no importance whatever,
and the following are only tenta-
tive, The event referred to itt the
Boole of Genesis occurred about
• 1700 13.0, Psalms, Proverbs and
Ecclesiastes were written between
1050 and 1000 13,0. The prophecy
from Isaiah was attend about 712
KC, The words quoted from the
First Epistle to the 0 )rinthians
were written: about A.D. 59.
Place,—Tho event referred to
in Genesis took place in Egypt.
Many of the Psalms, Proverbs and
Ecclesiastes were written in Jer-
usalem, as was also much of the
book of Isaiah, Corinth was a
great Greek city of Paul's day,
Located in Southern Greece.
34, "And he toko and sent
messes onto thein from him: hut
Benjamin's Mess was five times
so much as any of theirs, And
they drank and were merry with
hila." Joseph now prepares a
great banquet for all of his
brethren. The unusually large
portion assigned to Benjamin was
designed as an expression of his
strong fraternal affection, There
Is not the slightest thing in this
passage that what these men did
met with any Divine disapproval.
God's Goodness
14, "Ile causeth the grass to
grow for the catt' s, and the herb
for the service of pian; that he
may bring forth food out of the
earth. 15. And wine that maketh
glad the heart of man, and oil to
make his face to shine, and bread
that strengthens man's heart".
God makes the soil respond to
man's tillage with abundant pro-
duce. The word 'herb' here in-
cludes all vegetable products, God
provides for man's enjoyment as
ell as for Itis sustenance. God
appoints to the lowliest creature
its portion and takes care that he
has it, The herb is for pian and
he must till the soil, or it will
not be produced. The wine men-
tioned had the quality of ferment-
ed liquors; it gladdened the heart.
Thur., if taken to. except,, it would
have led to intoxication.
Day of Reckoning Postponed
4. "It is not for kings, 0 Lemuel
it is not for kings to drink wine;
,Nor for princes to say, where is
strong drink? 5. Lost they drink
,and forget the law, and pervert
the justice due to any that la af-
flicted. 8. Give strong drink to
him that is ready to perish, and
wine unto the bitter in soul: 7.
Let him drink and forget his pov-
erty, and remember his misery no
more." One well knows the temp-
tations to which kings were sub-
jected and how perverted and
weak the life of a king could be
made, when he allowed himself to
grossly indulge in those things
that took away his wisdom for
governing. Those who thus drink
forget the law, and thereby ren-
der false judgment, We are not
commanded to give drink unto
man; rather are we permitted to
give liquor to other people if we
are sure that they are perishing,
It may be that n pian when drink-
ing does forget his poverty and
misery, but this period of forget-
fulness is very brief. Drinking
only postpones it day of reckon-
ing.
The Heart Not Satisfied
1. "I said in my heart, Conte
now, 1 will prove thee with mirth;
therefore enpoy pleasure: and be-
hold, this also was vanity. 2. I
said of laughter, It is toad; and
of mirth: What doeth it? 3. I
searched in my heart how to
cheer my flesh with wine, my
Ilea, yet guiding me with wis-
dom, and how to lay hold on
folly, till 1 might see what it was
good far the sons of men that
they should do under heaven all
the days of their life ... 10. And
whatsoever mine eyes desired 1
kept not front thent; I withheld
not sty Heart from any joy; for
WHEN I l',;AS HIS s:.GE

my heart rejoiced because of all
my labor; and this was my pot
tion from all my labor. 11. Then
I looked on all the works tilat
my hands had wrought, and on
the labor that I had labored to
do; and, hehold, all was 1'anity
and a striving after wind, and
there w'as no profit under the
sun." The mirth, or happiness,
to which Solomon thus addicten
himself was the mirth of festive
convivialty. It was not to soli-
tary drinking but to the pleasure
of the festive hoard that he re-
solved to "eat, and to drink, and
to be merry." Ile determined
at the sante time to acquaint his
heart with wisdom. Some, it is
true, understand this, of wisely
regulating Itis indulgences, enjoy-
ing without exceeding. But, after
all, whore was the charm in all
this? It was merely novelty. His
heart rojoiced in his labors but
not after them, They were by
and by completed; the novelty of
them passed away; and with the
novelty the pleasure which they
had yielded,
False Sense of Security
12, "Come ye, say they, I will
fetch wine, and we will fill our-
selves with strong drink; and to-
morrow shall be as this day, a day
great beyond measure." Indul-
gence of this kind was habitual.
There was an intention to con-
tinue it because they loved it, and
meant to drink deeper and deeper.
Salvation Determined
6, "Now these things were our
examples, to the intent we should
not lust after evil things, as they
also lusted. 7. Neither be idola-
ters, as were some of them; as
it is written. The people sat down
to eat and drink, and rose up to
play." The matter of drinking
is not a matter which determines
salvation, but 1t is a Mattel which
determines spirituality in that sal-
vation and the usefulness of the
life of the believer.

The six-year-old was seated at

How To Bomb Berlin
On A Bicycle
Many motorists feel perfectly jw_tl-
i fled In using all of their petrol allow-
ance oven if it is not quite essential
that they do so; all the s.auno, if 133
motorists were to use just one quart
leas petrol each month this would
save 400 gallons a year for the nation.

raid on its "target for to -night." 11

plished if every motorist were to save
a quart a month. IIs probably would,

I priving the It.A,1''. of a gallon of pet-
rol every time he uses one in his car.
After bearing this, a motorist told
mo that each time he used his car he
asked himiself, "is it as important that
I use the car for this journey as it is
for the R.A.F. to use t plane for
iheirs " ... one week later he got his
bicycle out of the slle<l!
