IN THE GARDEN By GORDON L. SMITH Layouts For flowers, lawns and shrubs about the average house, landscape gardeners strictly advise Informal planting, This is especially desir- alble where space is limited as It tends to soften the narrow, rigid fence lines and to add an air of spactouness oven to a 20 -foot lot. In au informal garden, the central portion of the ground is entirely in grass, Around the edges of this will be grouped beds of perennial and annual flowers, leading up to shrubs and vines along the walls or fence boundaries. Where the garden is larger, ex- perts advocate screening off a por- tion by bringing forward the sur- rounding shrubbery at one point, or using a hedge, wall or trees so that the whole garden will not be entirely visible from any one point of observation. This will add fur- ther to that air of spaciousness and also provide a secluded corner or two for a child's swing or sand- box or, possibly. a seat or trellis - covered table. Vegetable Groups Vegetables are roughly divided Into three planting groups --hardy, semi -hardy and tender, Among the drat aro spinach, all sorts of let- tuce, radish and garden peas. A little frost will not hurt these. Second planted vegetables will be carrots, beans, cabbage, ;iota. tool and similar things. These will resist a fair antnunt of cold, Tender vegetables include corn, melons, oucumbers and tomatoes. Nothing 14 to be gained by planting these before danger of frost is over, With most vegetables ft Is ad- visable to make at least three sow. loge a week or two apart in order to spread the harvest tint much Longer over the season. Further spreading of the season Is secured by sowing three kinds of each legetable -- an early, a medium and a late variety which will re- sult in a continuous supply of really fresh vegetables for weeks longer than usual, Proper thioniug. ftequent cnitl• nation and an occasioual applica- tion of some good commercial fer- tilizer will keep vegetables (;rowing quickly, and quick growing Ioakes for teudernesq. INDIVIDUAL ItIJLCITS ALAN ,?IAAurlicf 0) Ill WIN raiz A Weekly Column About This and That in The Canadian Army All you old soldiers know what "pozzy" Ls, but how nionY of you can tell us where the word came from? And don't ask tae, All I know about it is that "pozzy" is jam in the Army, That is to eay jam is "pozzy" in the Mess Room, but when you come to another Army phrase -ono of de- rision, applied to someone who seems to be asking quite a lot, it remains "jam", The phrase: "What do you want, jam on it?" All this isn't so far beside the point as it may seem, By the time a ratan says, "shove the pozzy down here," he's a soldier. Mind you, he didn't get to be a soldier by learning Army slung but by the time he is a soldier he has learned many a new name for commonplace objects. He doesn't know just when he becomes a soldier. 1 doubt if any of his officers could tell you ei- ther, But somewhere, suddenly or gradually, the civilinn in battle - dress changes into a soldier in uniform. Of course, he takes the first step in the direction of becoming A soldier when he enters the re- cruiting office and volunteers to serve his King and Country. From that point on the metamorphosis is a steady progression. Enlisting is really quite a sim- ple procedure. At this time it is even better handled than when I wag a young soldier, Nowadays, you can walk Into a recruiting office, give particulars of Your- self, get a medical examination Including X -Ray, that would cost you ten dollars in civilian life, and report right away to a Dia- triot Depot where you are outfit- ted with uniform and equipment. At the District Depot new re- srulte get their first introduction to Army life. They ars taught how to wear their uniforms and equipment, how to conduct thonn- selve.s in a soldierly manner in public, who to salute and when, and the rudiments of military training. Their slay at the District Depot is made as short as passible ---it is realized that a man who vol- unteers for service anywhere Is anxious to get down to the busi- neas of learning to fight as soon as he can. By the same token it is real- ized that when he gets to a Basic Training Centre, the new recruit doesn't want to seem too awk- ward --hence the instruction In soldierly conduct and bearing and Canadian Army traditions. At the llasic Tratining (.'entre, training begins. Each day the now recruit learns something,. It Is no longer a dreary round of: squad drill wit11011t nrnts; salut- ing; the manual of arms; squad drill with arms; platoon drill; company drill -- rad infinitum. There is It drill of course, There has to be if you ere going to mold a group of men into a teats, But drill is interspersed • with instruction in the use of the rifle anti bayonet, the li th tun - chine gun, the two-inch mortar. There tore lectures and entertain- ments. Competitions enliven Army life and put a 'Lest into the work that must be done. Good foots --and lots of it -- builds muscle in place of the fat worked off by good exercise ---- and lots of it ---and by the time the recruit ends his basic train- ing he has become a soldier. There is still lots for hitt to learn-1Jiat conies when he goes on to an Advanced 'Training Cen- Centre, but by the time he gets there he is a soldier. Ile looks forward to the new things to be learned with interest and enthusi- asm -there are new tricks of the soldiering trade to be picked up. Civilian life Is behind Mita. Ahead there is a duty to be fulfilled and far ahead of that again that strange existence a soldier finds hard to understand-c#villan life! Atlantic Convoy By LIEUT. E. H. BARTLETT, R.C.N.V.R, ANEW Canadian naval tradition is in the making. It 14 taking shape between the staggering plunges of small ships at sea; being written by men whose pride in the job they are dolug is u crystal clear and hard u the los they see sheathing their craft. It le the corvette tradition -of those corvettes whose orews boast, as they keep the seas, that there isn't a sea their shtps cannot take. There is full justification for this boast, as this writer saw wheu attached to a corvette on convoy duty. Through a North Atlantlo gale - In -the -making, the small ship of war thrust her way, one of an escort fleet keeping watch and ward over a fleet of merchant ships. Her bows crashed into a heavy wave, dipped and sliuddered and roae with a jerking uplift which sent the sea cascading over her deck. The wind picked up the white water, hurled it in buckets - full high over the bridge, sent the spray lashing back to the funnel. On the bridge the men on watch ducked from the thrashing spray, lee formed rapidly, coatiug the entire ship with the exce(tiou of the hot funnel -and that grew white with salt. The amen them- selves were not immune, their oil- skins and duffel•c.,als were setlked and frozen, Winter weather -but the corvette took it, as her sisters were taking it while they maiutaiued their guarding atatlous around the lum- bering merchantmen. There was work ahead of them which could not wail for weather. Ahead and around the convoy they were pluuging and rolling in a well•dellued pluu. They were "sereenlug" for sub- marines, using the marvels of their detection apparatus to keep cunsttrnt likening watch beneath the water while their lookouts kept steady vigil over the surface, Taking rough shelter near the breach of their gun, a gulf's crew was "closed up" ready for action, Occasionally, as course was changed to take our corvette at another tangent, the caplaln gave his brusque orders to those on watch. He le a veteran of the corvette convoy service, has taken hie ship through subnuu'lle waters and through airpane blitzes; knows the ports on Engand's side of the At- lantic as well as he knows the Canadian bases from which he now operates, Submarine screening is an old tale to him, now, but it is a tale whose fnmilinrily has not bred contempt. IIe was as untir- ingly alert on this voyage as he had been on bis first. The senior escort ship sent a flutter of signal flags to her yard, Our signalmen translated the order they gave, Astern of us two of the merchant ships were straggling from the convoy's course, showing signs of becoming separated from the main fleet, and we were order- ed to their vicinity, WO spun around sharply --these corvettes seem to be able to turn 1n their own wake or on the crest of a wave -and started backwards toward the strugglers, Whsle they slowly made their way again to their couv'oy station, our ship gave thew her undivided protection. Another triumph for the corvette service, the fact that they have overcome the dillieulliee of early convoys when escort ships were not numerous enough. to spare one from her Mallon to take care of possible stragglers, Today the escorts are strong enough to per- mit detachlug individual ships for special duties, The captain in the wing of the bridge, ducked as freezing spray slashed back at him.

It le absorbing far more of Nazi energies than any other front. 2, It is the one place where the United Nations now enjoy the advantage of the offensive, 8. It is the one front where both Hit- ler's promises and military noces- city force the Germans to new efforts.

Suppose It ered bench, Comfort in a corvette? It's not expected by their crews, who find compensation .or Its lack in the fact they are doing a hard job well, The captain wasted little time over his meal. It was the par- poseful Dating of a man whose In- terest was elsewhere -in the job he was doing, His meal finished, he went to his cabin to sloop. The comfortable hunk there does not rnoatl touch to him at sea, Rather he prefers to sleep, partially dres- sed, upon a leather settee, ready for any emorgont call. Tho coming of darkness saw him on the bridge again. The ships forged through the night, barely seen sltntlows on an ink -black sea, and the breaking dawn saw them safe. So, it the corvettes could stake It so, subsequent dawns were to see them equally safe, until the day came when they would arrive with their precious cargoes, in the ports to which they were bound. It's a hard service, the corvette fleet, but a proud one. One, too, which has scored ile succ3ss0e against the enemy, Tito Admiralty has released one report which told how two Canadian corvettes sank a U-boat and captured most of her crew, uud hints have been dropped that tlls is not the 0111y subniarlao which has fallen victim to the Canadine ships, Corvettes, too, have saved scores of lives, bringing safely to port the sur- vivors of merchant ships which have been torpedoed. They have fought off aeroplanes and taken their merchant ship charges safely through the danger ureas, Their tasks are many and var. led, but the corvettes tackle thew all. 1t is part of the corvette tra- dition, which rules that they keep the seas, in fair weather or foul, so long us there 19 a job to be done. • -MERRILL'S CANDIE SNcPP were concentrated 011 Turkey and the Nur East, in a nuw assault 011 Britain, or u drive toward Ihdoir and South But. it cannot be while the Russian front ex las, slues not, this fact mese tt Ill tin that Iteiulin uud :\ulcnirl should sutler furnish the ilur.,.utts ilttl l t' alt bell) on their front or establish au active front elsewhere t,11;c11 ,1111 p.et'enl Nazi. tuneet, tOtiuu on Ifus. sal?

You need more than one, so it must be inexpensive too. Pattern 4926 was adapted by Anne Adams from the women's defense uniform de- signed by the Department of .Agriculture, and can be made economically at home. The but- ton -front jumper apron slips on quickly over its own contrast blouse or over your dress. The pockets are set in the skirt seams to keep from tearing and the shoulder straps are cut in -one with the centre panel for the same reason. Make the blouse long or short -sleeved — wear the collar open or closed. Let the Sewing Instructor help you fin- ish quickly! Pattern 4926 is available in junior miss sizes 11, 13, 15 and 17; misses' and women's sizes 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 30, 32, 34, 36, 38 and 40.

Strange, thought Lieutenant Rollins, he had been terribly im- patient about sailing until a few hours previously. The long monthll of rigorous camp training follow - ad by a hectic embarkation leave in ,Montreal had climaxed in his unit's allocation to this former Polish luxury liner, now known simply 85 'e1' 9." That was threw days ago and the letdown after all the activity and excitement had been terrific. But things were definitely picking up. The reason was a blond, certainly not more than 24, slightly taller than aver- age, but eminently suitable for a six-foot officer, Lieutenant Rollins found him. self grinning in the darkness. The girl was evidently of the serious- minded type, but that dimple in her left cheek held interesting possibilities. He had noticed it, when she was only half -way up the gangplank, and he was trying to slake out the color of her eyes when she had looked at him squarely. 11c had promptly raised a gloved hand to his service cap ill 1111 I11- forn11l salute and added a wide smile for good measure, She gave hint a short fleeting smile in re- turn but it was a somewhat dis- interested One. She' stopped briskly from the gangplank and onto "13" deck then marched along with the others to the stairway leading up to "A" deck, l,icuten:u,t Rollins' eyes followed her. She was un- doubtedly the prettiest, of the 47 nursing sisters bound fur a Cana- dian hospital in England. The amazing thing about it all was he knew he had met that girl some- where before. 11 was quite un- thinkable, though, that he ap- proach her, bow deeply, and say: "Pardon me, Sister, but haven't we met somewhere?" She would sped; to hint, of course. Would tell hint a few casual facts about herself. Ile would name a few places he had been. She might suggest a few also. Then, in an awkward sort of way, he'd be forced to shrug, laugh lightly and give up. That would never do. Ile would bring up the, previous meeting only alter they were oil cozy terms "Lieutenant Rollins, sir?" The young officer came out of his reverie with a start.

The Wrigley Spearmint sign on Times Square, New York City — the largest of its kind in the world — is being dismantled. For the past six years this spectacular sign has thrilled the Broadway crowds. '1'o see the Great White Way, and the Wrigley sign in particular because it was the largest, was one thing that thrilled the visitors to New York from all over the world. The Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company decided to discontinue this beau- tiful sign strictly as an economic measure. The sign was 75 feet high and 192 feet long. It contained 36,000 lamps and consumed as much electric current as would he needed in illuminating u town of 10,000 population. For the last six months the Wrigley Company had replaced their entire advertising message on this huge Spectacular with copy pro- rnoting U. S. Defense Bonds and Savings Stamps, For this reason they dislike to see the sign demolished, but from an economic stand- point and in an effort to help win the war, the officials of the Com- pany decided it was the right thing to do. What the country needs today are ships, tanks, airplanes, and guns, and to produce these weapons of war takes lots of power. Saving Sugar For Munitions Of War Reason Given For Sugar Ra• tionIng by Sarnia Canadian - Observer Canada understands that the government's call for voluntary rationing of sugar is a wartime measure hut it is not generally understood why it Is a wa'tim(,t measure. Sugar Is not being ra- tioned hero and 111 the United Staters simply because of a short - ago 1n the sugar cane crop. Tho real reason for the rationing is that sugar cane can produce either sugar molasses 01' edible sugar, that is the kind of sugar used in tea and coffee. 11 too much of tho caul; is used for edible, or eating sugar, then there is not so much available for sugar molasses. Both sugar molasses and edible sugar cornu front the s in0 raw material source. x * Now why this concern about the supply of sugar molasses? Por the reason that tate major source of ethyl alcohol is sugar Molasses, And ethyl alcohol is required for tuullitious of war and for thous• ands of chemicals used in war pro- duction. Fortune Magazh18, Which made a =))racy of the sugar situp• tion in the United Stales, declares that "today's wars aro fought lit - entity with sugar." Every lino a 1G-Inelt gun is fired, a fifth of an acre of sugar cane is consumed in the form of ethyl alcohol, and it will be remembered that ethyl alcohol comes, largely, from sugar molasses. '\'lien, too, sugar is euerby for war workers and for lighting bleu. High test 11101aSSCS is Made di• roetly front sugar cane. its high sugar content, 7S per cent, stakes a gallon go "half again as tar" in making alcohol as does or(linary blacksU•ap molasses which is a by- product of sugar rc'tining. llecau;,u of the demands of the war, it is estimated that the United States faces what is des• crlbed as a sugar shortage of from 500,000 to 1,000,0011 tuns. 'these de- mands arise front the tremeuduusy increased call for 011131 alcohol, Europe lids sIl•i1'cln to Make itself self-sufficient in industrial alco- hol, 1t is made from potatoes and grains and to some extent tram beets, Jap,fn produced Mealy enough sugar in Formosa, says this magazine, for her l'equiretuents. No doubt her drive in the South. west Pacific has as an objective the obtaining of sugar cane as well as rubber and oil. Bence, when a Canadian is re- training from the use of sugar, to a degree, he is not simply dieting or even merely being self-sacrific- ing so that the fighting men can have plenty of sugar for their tea. 11e is giving up sugar so that ethyl alcohol may ho made and so that 16-ineli guns and other guns may he 11re(1 at the Axis.

T. Y. Lo, official of the Chi- nese Motion Picture Corporation, said the attacks took place in the mountainous regions along tho border of Northern India when the monkey's grew angry at in- trusion of laborers into regions Clever before inhabited by ratan.

Drown, showed that, on the average, over 50 per cent of the seed was dam- aged by a cracking of the seed coat. Usually the crac133 were invisible to tllo naked eye. When crooked ,seed was germinated at moist blottera, it gc,",tlina:C I almost 115 well as did un- damaged seed, but, when planted in soil, it usually rotted or produced stunted seedlings, '1`111e rotting oc- curred over a wile range of soil tem- peratures but was lightly less in san- re Transport Changes.

The rot- ting of the .50011 led to a reduction in the thickness of stand, and, where the damage was not offset by an in- creased tittering of the surviving plants, aI, o in a reduction in yield, \\'hell cracked seed was (lusted with 'Cere5au or Leytosan (11/2 oz. per bush- el) and was then planted in soil, the rotting of such seal in soil was com- pletely prevented. The seedlings from (lusted, 001101(0(1 seed grew vigorously and the only evidence of former in- jury was the presence of scars on the seed leaves showing where the seed had been cracked, The increase in yield from seed treatment was usual- ly less than increase in stand, and there was no increase in yield when the treatment was applied to seed with less than 20 per cent of cracked 'kernels, Shackleton - Jones the following, that is to say:- 1lJItSEI3-Matc'hed team of autres, (i and 7 years old; Mare, rising 4 years old; Mare, rising ,-, years old; Aged horse.

GOLDEN TEXT—Thanks be to God, who glveth us 'the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 15:67. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time—Tho words here quoted from Mark's Gospel wore spoken by our Lord on Tuesday of Pas- sion Week, April 4, A.D. 30. The First Epistle of Paul to the Cor• int.htans was written about A.D. 66, Place—Tho words here quoted from one of our Lord's discourses were uttered in Jerusalem. The first Epistle to the Corinthians was written at Ephesus. God of the Living 24. "Jesus said unto them, le it not for this cause that ye err, that ye know not the scriptures, nor the power of God? 26, For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given In marriage. 26. But as touching the dead, that they are raised; have ys not read in the book of Moses, in the place concerning the Bush, how God epake unto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? 27. He is not the God of the dead, but of the living; ye do greatly err." Jesus attributes these proud mon with error, and he at- tributes their error to their ignor- ance. Though these men were full orf intellectual pride, they were looking in understanding of God's Word and faith in God's power. Jesus says that God can and will raise the dead, and that in the risen life earthly relations will be dissolved. Our domestic relation- ships will no longer exist, Because th!u'e is no more death, there is no more need of marriage, but the redeemed are, in this respect, as angels. Jesus ends as He began, saying that they erred and erred greatly. It is God's Word which tells of His power, and if we do not know the one we shall not believe in the other. 50. "Now this 1 say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God; neither doth the corruption inherit incorrup- tion," Flesh and blood describes the human body as it exists in this life. In this state the body cannot enter heave n. Corruption le found in our flesh and blood be- cause of sin. Only when sin to- gether with its effects is complete- ly removed from our bodies do our bodies attain Incorruption and thus inherit God's Kingdom, 51. "Behold, I tell you a mys- tery; Wo shall not Bleep, but we shall all be changed, 62, in a mo- ment, in the twingling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible ..nd we shall be changed,' Those living when Christ comes will not fall asleep, that is die, before they are caught trap to be with Him. We shall be changed in many ways. Our bodies will be changed. Our minds will be enlarged. Our very characters shall be purified and we shall be presented spotless before the Throne of Grace. 63. "For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality." The bodies in which we now live are mortal, The bodies in which we shall live will be immortal, free from death, and the possibility of death forever. 64. "But when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on inn mortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written, Death Its swallowed up in victory. 66. 0 grave, where is thy victory? 0 death, where is thy sting?" Death it only an instrument in God's bands, and having done its tem- porary work is thrown aside; and resurrection steps in, and with its supreme victory reverses all of that which seemed a victory for death. 18. "The sting of death is sin; and the power of sin is the law." In the law is seen the expression et the will of God. 67. "But thanks be to God, who glveth us the vic- tory through our Lord Jesus Christ" The victory here meant is the victory over death and the grave. Christ by his death hath destroyed him that had the power of death, that Is, the devil, and de- livered them who through fear of death were all their lifetime sub- ject to bondage. Christ deprives death of all power to injure His people. Christ not only gives us this victory but He now creates the soul after the image of God and repairs all the evils which death had inflicted. He restores us to that state from which sin had east us down. He rescues our bodies from the grave and fash- ions them like unto Ilis body, even by that power whereby he is able to subdue all things unto Him- self (Phil. 3:21). Had it not been for Christ, death would have reigned forever over our own fallen race; but Christ has given us the victory; so that the believer may even now say 0 death, where is thy sting? 0 grave, where is thy victory? CANADIAN AIRMAN WINS GEORGE MEDAL Sergeant Thomas B. Miller of Owen Sound, Ont. and St, John, N.B•, first member of the Royal Canadian Air Force to win the George Medal gained the award for "prompt and extremely brave action," This picture is the first to reach Canada since his exploit. The 20 -year-old observer entered the flaming wreck of his crashed bomber twice to rescue, first the pilot and then the wireless operator. The latter was "sort of a human torch" according to Miller's own words, but he managed to get him to the grass where he "rolled" out the flames. :Miller spent three months in hospital. The crash followed a successful raid over Germany, when they were apparently trailed home by a Messersehmitt which did not open fire until they neared their home base. They suffered a burst "right on the nose," one engine "conked" and a crash landing was inevitable.

Coal Is Becoming Big U.K. Problem Britain now is consuming far more coal than before the war and will have "a very difficult task to meet next year's demands" for the fuel, an official spokes- man said. He foresaw no difficulty for the present winter, however, despite increased consumption and said thorn had been no stoppage of es- sential Industries, The hone market, he added, will absorb almost four and a half tons a person next year, and "we must produce 4,000,000 tons for every week of the year." No Near Collapse Of German Morale Germany Knows She Is Beaten But le Afraid To Quit Germany today knows she is beaten but continues to fight with undiminished fury in an effort to postpone as long as possible the time of post-war reprisals, accord- ing to Alex Dreier, N.B.C. corres- pondent and last reporter to leave Berlin before war was declared, "I saw the first crack in Ger- many's morale when the blitz vic- tory over Russia, which Hitler had promised, failed to materialize," Dreier writes in the current issue of The American Magazine. "As relations between Washington and Berlin grew more tense, I saw the iridespread uncertainty of victory turn into a conviction of defeat, "On the eve of Pearl Harbor, Germany had been so undermined with hopelessness that even Nazi officials talked openly of their fears of ultimate disaster. I don't mean that the Nazi regime is about to crack up. Far from it. I've seen its fighting machine and it is still magnificent despite losses on the eastern front, In fact, recent setbacks have given Germany a will to fight with a new ferocity. Little Fellow Afraid "The little fellow under Hitler is afraid of what will happen to him alter he stops fighting, I talk- ed with Germans who believe that a murderous horde of aveng- ers — downtrodden Russians, Poles, Czechs, Serbs, Norwegians, Bel - glans,. Danes, Dutch and French —will swarm over Germany once military operations have ceased, A Nazi officer told rue that if Ger• many is defeated 30 million Ger- mans will die—and not on the bat- tlefield." Mr. Dreier says that today the average German faces the war like this: "We've knocked over nine court• tries In Europe and what has It got us? Our food isn't better and our clothes are worse. Something has gone wrong in Russia and now we've got the United States against us, too, We'll bo licked in the end, but can't quit." Mr. Dreier reports that after two and a half years of war, Germany is rife with anti -war and anti -Nazi sentiment, but he warns that "there is no immediate chanze of internal collapse In Germany." ? lJ PS 6T MY IT'S BAG OF ALL PEANUTS •- RIE' ; (1* F✓ti.x Re,.•,n1 hr '1 - I,. . .! •.

A friend of ours in the Defence- Ilousing Registry at Washington is pretty busy these days trying to find rooms for the hundreds of new Government employees arriving daily. Recently the inspector, looking over tt proposed propertY, asked the landlady: "glow many share the bath?" "Well," admitted the prospect- ive recipient of a Government bounty, "things are a mite crowd- ed—but we still take our baths se onrately," "In a i iidtvestern town, an ec- centric was found who had not left an attic in twenty years." "That's the danger in starting a long serial in 0 pilo of old magazines." While on patrol duty, a mem- ber of the home Guard came across a watchman asleep In his hut. The sirens had just previously sounded. Shaking the old man, he shouted: "Wake up, don't you know the siren's gone?" Sleepily, he murmured: "Well, I'nm not surprised. The people round hero'll take anything." "Why are you wearing epee - tacks, old chap?" "Well, through crossword puz- zles, I've contracted an optical defect. Ono eYe travels vertic- ally and the the other horizont- ally." A man telephoned the doctors "Como over quick, Doc. My wife has appendicitis." "Nonsense," snorted the doctor, "I removed your wife's appendix three years ago. How can any- one intve a second appendix?" "Listen," cried the husband, "did you ever hear of anyone having a second wife?" There had been an accidentt and the sympathetic old lady had stopped and stroked his forehead. "My poor follow," she orooned, "toll me your name, and I will tell Your mother." "Thank you," gasped the vie - tint, "but my mother knows my name." Boss; "You want a raise? Why don't you live within your means?" Employee: "I do, sir, but you don't realize how 1 am crowded for space", "Say, pa," "Well, my son," "I took a walk through the cemetery today and I road the inscriptions on the tombstones." "Well, what about it?" "Where are all the wicked peo- ple buried?" . Motorist: "How far to the next town?" Native: "About three milds in a bee line."

Has Best Year In History Government•Owned Railway Reports Surplus of $4,018,000 In 1941 ` ---- Tho Canadian National Rail- ways had the most successful fin- ancial year of its history in 1041 with 1t cash surplus of $4,0 1 6,000, the annual report of the system, tabled in the house of Commons last week by the Min!.iter of Transport., said. Net revenue, after the pay- ment of all operating expenses, was $66,608,341, un increase of $21,600,1129 over the previous year. The cash surplus of $4,- 016,000, after payment of taxes, interest to the public and certain interest payments to the govern- ment for capital purposes, show- ed an improvement of $21,000,- 000 over 1940. Payment of thia surplus will be made to the gov- ernment before the close of the fiscal year ending March 31, the report said. Sharp increases in both passen- ger and freight traffic were re- ported, with the freight tonnage the highest in tho railway's his- tory. "When the need for efficient tran.sportatlon reached new high levels during 1941, the National Railway system was found capable and competent to meet all de- mands," the report said. "The demands in 1942 will be still more challenging but with the co-oper- ation of shippers, passengers and government agencies, they will he met." 1942 Outlook Bright "The outlook for 1942 is for a further substantial increase in traffic, The directors expect the railway will again earn a moder- ate surplus over and above its fixed charges. It is difficult to estimate how much that surplus will be, The outlook must be viewed in the light of war condi- tions and with the realization that abrupt and far-reaching distur- bances oocur with startling rapid- ity. "Both management and em- ployees realize fully the need for economy and every effort will bo made to secure the most favorable financial results consistent with the primary duty of furnishing prompt and efficient transporta- tion service in the national war effort. "There is some shortage of labor, more particuarly among the shop crafts. Shortages of ma- terial are bound to ocour as the normal supplies are out off or the available supplies are divert- ed to the fabrication of the muni - cur EACH S --._. FRESH WOKE AND M THE PLUG SAVE MONEY WITH DIXIE tions of war but these difficulties should not he Insurmountable. The relations between manage- ment and the employees are ex- cellent and the railway and (11 equipment have been well main- tained." Operating Revenue Operating revenues in 1941 totalled $304,376,000 or 28 per cent over the preceding year. The amount was approximately equal to that of 1928, and was more than double that of 1938, Only two other railway epitome on the continent had larger gross rev- enues. Freight revenue increased $45,- 030,000 or 23 per cent. In 1941 the railway moved the largest tonnage of freight in its history. It moved the equivalent of 27,- 199,000,000 tone one mile, an ef- fort 20 per cent greater than In the previous peak year of 1928. The increased freight revenue over 1928, however, was only five per cent. Passenger Revenue Passenger revenue increased $10,191,000 or 47 per cent. Meas. ured by pasenger miles, passen- ger traffic increased 57 per cent but the increase in revenue was T not proportionate to the increase in volume because of the low fares for members of the armed forces and special rates for workmen's trains serving munition plants. The average revenue per passen- ger mile was 1.8 cents, an all- time low. Tho increased activity in rail transortation was reflected in other accounts, such as mail, sleeping car, chair car, dining car, and commercial telegraphs. Ex- press revenue, however, was less than in 1940 due to the diminu- tion of movements of gold bullion. The cost of protecting the com- pany's property against possible sabotage was $662,000. The num- bor of employees increased by 6,706 to 89,536. Will Wear Clothes Made From Milk Americans will be wearing dresses and other clothes made from milk by Spring, and the colt will be launched in a now role AS fashion aid, is the forecast by duiry products researchers, says Science Service. Success in processing a new textile fibre from casein, by-pro- duct of skim milk, after four years of experimenting is cause for the predictions. The fibre is said to be the first derived from milk which is "no- ooptable to the American textile industry," and fabrics are now being manufactured containing threads of milk, Exeiva.`.�e of generator equip- ment, it costa ;18,000 to build one of the giant 80,000,000 can. dlepower anti-aircraft searcb- lighte used by the Canadian forces. ...CLASSIFIED ADVERTISEMENTS.I.
