He was a peculiarly unpleasant
person, and when visiting the local
cattle show made himself unpopu-
lar by his loudly expressed claims
to superior knowledge. He was es-
pecially insulting to old Sant Potts.
"Pah", he said, sneeringly, "you
know nothing about pigs', you
don't. Why, my father raised the
b;ggest pig ever raised in these
'ere parts".
"Aye", retorted old Sam, quietly,
"and the noisiest".
Innocent
A private stationed at the Army
Air Force Basic Training Center,
N.J., was ordered to wash and
clean an officer's inner sanctum.
Quickly he went to work. Happily
humming a song, he wiped the
desk, cleaned the chair, dusted the
books. A half later the officer
walked in. Everything was tip-top
—except the floor,
"Private," remarked the officer,
"wasn't the floor washed?"
"No," replied the private.
"No WHAT?" exclaimed the Ir-
ritated officer.
"No mop," said the private
meekly.
If it Comes to That
A man was going round the
country gelling bacon -slicers. He
cane to a little town in Lancashire
and went into a grocer's where he
could see they hadn't a bacon -slic-
er. He put his sample on the coun-
ter and showed the grocer how it
worked.
"Don't you think that's marvel-

"Aye"

"Aye, it is an' all."

"Aye, it's marvelous."

"Aye, I do an' all."

"Well," said the grocer, "why

,IET PLANE TO SPEED PASSENGERS AT 300 -MILE CLIP ,
An order for 100 jet propulsion twin -engine commercial passenger planes like that sketched above
has been announced by American Airlines as having been placed with Consolidated Vultco Corp. Total
expenditure will approximate $18,000,000. Designers claim that, with jet propulsion as a complement
to propellers, the ship will carry 90 pasengers at a cruising speed of 300 m,p,h. Another unusual
feature of the model will be entrance doors at the front instead of at the side,

New Alarm Network
Helps Catch Crooks
A new kind of burglar alarm—a
wartime invention—which auto-
matically calls up Scotland Yard,
h!he Criminal Investigation De-
partment, is being fitted in maty
London banks, jewelers and busi-
ness premises as a further step
towards combating Britain's big-
gest crime wave in years.
Already the device—a granto.
phone -telephone system, which
automatically relays the name,
address, and telephone number of
the premises being burgled to the
police—has resulted in some of
(London's smaller crooks being
rounded up, it was stated today.

don, it is understood, are consider -

tary weapons.
Special precautions are being
taken at embarkation ports to pre-
-Vent troops bringing souvenir
weapons into the country.
Volunteers arc now coming for-
ward to reinforce the 'Metropoli-
tan Police as special constables,
and those specials who would nor-
mally be released after completing
war service are being asked to stay
on.
Civilians arc responding well to
the police appeal to dial 990—
Scotland Yard's emergency must-
ber—to report suspicious actions,
and has resulted in more crooks
than usual being arrested.
Alberta Lemons
Big as Grapefruit
Alberta's climate is not suitable
for lemons, but with a home-made
climate, a few seals, and some
special care, W. L. MacGregor has
produced nine large lemons.
His wife, who shares in the
achievement, displayed the fruit
which resemble lemons in shape but
are almost as large as grapefruit.
The largest is one podnd Once
ounces and the smallest only two
ounces less.
ISSUE 2-1046
World Problems
Of the New Year
Many Political Issues Must
Be Solved in 1946.
:1s the New Year opens, world
government and control of atomic
power overshadow all problems.
Concisely the world -government
issue is this: Is the United Nations
Organization to be a genuine
world organization or simply an-
e ther League of Nations dominated
bt power politics?
At the present moment the world
is being run exclusively by the ]lig
'three—Great Britain, the United
States attd Russia.
Displaced Persons
The grave social problem of the
displaced persons still stands sub-
stantially unrelieved. Close to 1,-
000,000 political refugees are scat -
tete 1 here and there about Europe
while the Allies seek some way of
st,arantceing them freedom and a
decent way of life.
Middle East
The chief issue in the \fiddle
Past, traditional storm centre of
int. rnational affairs, hinges ttpott
what appears to be a Russian ef-
fort to gain political dominance
ever the arca between the Indian
Ocean and the Aegean Sea.
Spain
The problem of the Allies in
"pain is essentially this: Iiow soon
can Generalissimo Franco be oust-
ed from power and the country
restored to a democratic basis?
An early Anglo -American -French
parley on the wisdom of breaking
diplomatic relations with the
Franco regime is a possibility.
Japan
In setting up a four -power con-
trol council to administer Japan,
the Allies are facing the sante that -
lenge that confronts them in Ger-
many, to vitt Can differing nation-
alities, differing concepts, a tt d
erten differing ideals be meshed
into a unified and efficient admin-
istrative machine? It must be ad-
mitted that the effort thus far has
not been very successful in Ger=
many.
Colonies
The trouble in Indonesia provides
a fair example of the colonial prob-
lem in all parts of the post-war
world. In essence, the issue is
this: Will the great powers attempt
to cling to old rights and privileges
or will they act in accordance with
the principles of freedom, justice
and the self-determination of na-
tions?
BOMBS STILL BURST

shortage before the end of the win-

attempts will be made to obtain
wheat from the U.S. and Canada.

Hitler's Last Wills:
Political and Private
:ltloli
I litter's last political testa-
ment, apparent), prepared as Berlin
tottered before the Russian on-
sl:uu;!a, was revealed last week as
a u;a-terpiece of propaganda in
svlti, h he built himself up as a
nt:o•tsr and bequeathed to the (ier-
ntali people the :\azi creed of
fierce loyalty to the State and hat-
red of the Jews.
His final admonition was:
"Above all, 1 enjoin the govern-
ment of the nation and the people
to uphold the racial laws to the
limit and resist mercilessly the
poisoner of all nations, interna-
tional Jewry,"
The testament, dated April 29,
19.15, was discovered by British
and American intclliugcuce agents.
It disclosed that Hitler expelled
Reichsmarshal Hermann Goring
and Gestapo Chief Heinrich Him-
mler from the Nazi ranks for at-
tempting to seize control of the
State, and "negotiating with the
enemy without my knowledge."
Urging Getmans to keep alive
the Nazi doctrine, IIiter said "the
seed has been sown that will grow
one day in the history of Germany
to the glorious rebirth of the Na-
tional Socialist Movement," the
document added.
Throughout the testament, Hit-
ler built himself tip as a martyr
who wished to "join in death" the
troops who had fallen on the
battlefield,
In Itis personal will, also dated
April 29, IIitler told of plans for
suicide after marrying 'Hiss Braun,
his mistress.
Hitler left Itis personal possess-
sions "in so far as they arc worth"
to the Nazi Party, and said that
paintings he had collected should
be placed in a gallery "in my

Conscientious Cow
According to one British auth-
ority, out of a ton of grass a good
dairy cow puts 1,456 potmds on
on.! side, for milk production and
keep 784 pounds for herself. A
sow of poor stock uses 086 pounds
for milk production and takes 1,234
pounds for own maintenance, (The
British long ton is 2,210 pounds),

It api ears so natural that a
pretty girl could have her good eye
for reading; and use her false eye
for flirtation,.
The new eye should hit the civil-
ian market some time in 19111, and
at a price n liicit the lower incotne
groups ran afford, The Naval
Dental Corps at Beth cda, Md., has
manufactured more than 600 of
these eye- during tl:e past year,
Datil: h were assigned to the job
becau,e of their •xpericnce in mold-
ing plastics to tissues,
Comm. Lamar 1V, Ilarris, speak-
ing to the Greater New York dental
meeting, explained that the navy's
new eye grips al' the muscles be-
hind the eyeball. The old-fashioned
glass eye was mostly a shell, with
almost no gripping power,
"The muscles attaching the eye-
ball are cut and gathered so that
they fit aroung the edge of the
plastic hall," I-Iarris explained,
Ilarris said that it Wag a simple
operation and that the navy is
passing on its information to civil-
ian dentists.

tic eye for cleaning and it won't

Elliott insurance Agency ies, Raffles, and Bingos,
The Department nt of the Attorncy-
BLYTH— ONT. General (Ontario) has reached the
conclusion that illegal lotteries, raf-
fles and bingo: (Gthcr than occasional

poses) have reached such proportions
that it has become necessary for the:
Department to intervene in the co-

tices.
•1 The provisions of the Criminal Co '1,..
_ with the exceptions hereinafter men-
tioned prohibit the ditpusitior of pro-
perty, goods, ware: and merchandise
by lotteries and rattles and the holding
of bingos. The penalty in relation to
conducting or managing a lottery
scheme or advertising or publishing
the same is two years it ,,ri;ornu•nt
and fine net exceeding ;2,Go•). It is
also an individual offence punishable
by a fine of 4-'0 for anyone to buy,
take or receive a lottery ticket. Tin.
cxceptiens me,atione•i above are that
items of goods, wares awl inercha e

$50.00 and are first offered for sale,

Good Neighbourliness
Is a Wondeful Thing
Don't .Spoil It By Borrowing!
ARE YOU ONE OF THOSE who consistenly
borrow sour neighbours Blyth Standard from week
to week, It is a fact that many more. people read
the Standard than do actually subscribe for it.
Good neighbourliness is a great convenience when
you run short on tea, sugar, 01' other household
necessities that can be repaid for, Don't abuse it
by consistently borrowing your neighbour's paper
after you imagine he is through with it, There may
be something in that issue of pr:t'sonal interest to
him, that he wishes to save. Even if there isn't,
borrowing it week after week, may become mighty
irksome to him, although on the surface he may
not show it. Why run the risk of becoming a nuis-
ance, when for the small stun of $1,50 annually,
3c a week, less than what it costs you to Dost o110
,letter, you can receive your own Standard.
You can be sure that the editor will appreciate
your subscription a great deal more than your
neighbour appreciates you borrowing his paler
every week, at his expense. Give the matter a
thought. Don't over -indulge on your neighbour's
generosity. Sul. -. _ribs now and get your own paper.

Six-year-old Norman Turner was born with scaphocephalus, a rare
skull condition which necessitated removal of most of the bone
from the top of his head in order to relieve threatened pressure on
his brain. To replace the missing skull, Irving A. Goldman of Ar-

he displays a plaster cast of the artificial skull to Norman and his

The sun grace hot and I lit key
What down his gear often to oil up.
But nights were still cool, and the
ttcanly Wrist drifted oval the slush
pit, spewed out endlessly, bringing
up from the earth the grit of the
drill. Ilut still the rotary turned
and the bit want down and Hickey
ickey
kept on grinning.
Eight hundred fact and a -Leanly
morning, and Gary looked up to sec
a hairy figure leaning against the
tool box. A roughneck cased his
itching nose with the back of his
fist, and spat. "Yonder's old
Ilughcy, he said. "We're going to
get oil."
Gary walked over to the old ratan.
"Hello, Ali- Gothcrgill, l'on'e out
to sec us bring in this dry hole?"
"i smelled her." Old 11ughey
scratched himself in several places.
"I can smell a drill ten miles off.
\Vhat you got over yonder in that
{tit?"
"Rock cutting. Linn, mostly."
"Yeah, I know. And you can
drill her to Chitty and all you'll
git is Zine and salt water. I been
following oil all over this country
for fifty years. Reckon Harvey Ma-
son is fixin' to lose about ever' -
thing he's got 00 this here wild -
fat."
"I guess he's not w'or"ying."
w
At dusk old Hughey disappeared,
after borrowing another quarter.
But the next day, early, fie was
there again and Hickey growled
when he saw him. "Mason had
ought to run that old bum off," he
grumbled. "Iic's had luck."
But old Hughey only sat quietly
under a tree, taking out his ping
tobacco now and then to whittle
on it. Gary, feeling vaguely sorry
for the 01(1 man, begged a couple
of slices of bread and a chicken leg
f►onm MMaria for )Hughey. iiughey
accepted them with lofty grace,
hut Gary did not linger.
Gary had heard voices in the
Mason living room --voices raised
a little too loudly. Harvey's voice—
and another that he knew belonged
to Oliver Kimball.
Ile went hack, intending not to
intrude unless he should he sum-
moned, but in the back hall Mona
Lee caught at itis sleeve and drew
hint aside. "it's Oliver," she whis-
pered, pale with a desperate kind
of excitement. "lie cane out and
brought some big oil man with hint.
They're arguing in there, and Har-
vey's beginning to get mad, i lis-
tened upstairs. I want you 10 go
in, Gary. I'm going to speak to
Harvey."
('}l:\PTER XIV
"Please, Mrs. Mason—"
lltlt site had walked away quick-
ly to the living roost door. "Har-
vey, Gary's here if you want him,"
she said.
Harvey got to his feet, and his
face was red "Conte on in here,
Gary. You know Oliver—and this
is Mr. Paterson—'I'allnman's bossing
this oil job for ntc."
Paterson was a type he knew.
Suave, lawyer turned salesman.
"I ,don't think you need any out-
side help to get at the bottom of
this proposition, Harvey," Oliver
said. "You're not going tot lost a
cent by accepting Paterson's propo-
sition. On the other hand, you stand
to lose plenty if 300 refuse to lis-
ten."
"Hind stating the proposition?"
Gary asked politely.
Oliver bristled a little. "I don't
see why we should. We've made it
perfectly clear to Harvey."
"Perhaps 1 can tusk- it plain in
a fete Words, Mr. Tallman." Pater-
son t' as blandly agreeable. " 1 hatp-

"You figured this out, did you?"
Cary said to t diver, smiling coolly.
'Very clever job."
"It's a holdup. i don't care \t ho
figured it nut!" Shouted Ilartey.
"You're quite certain then, 31r.
Mason, that you don't wish to pro-
tect yourself by caning in with its?"
Paterson rose. "Your well is only
spudded in now, Plenty of trouble
ran happen before you hit the sand.
\Ve could save you from all that,
"e ll kimiw,"
"I can save myself," snapped
ilary-y, "l fool -day, gentlemen."
"They aren't telling all they
know," Gary said when Oliver's
car had backed viciously out of the
drive. "Sonehting's stirring—and
may not be pretty."
Very early next morning Gary
saw the man in the brown suit
n•alking across the field. "Ouch!"
he said to hickey. "I knew it.
Here it comes."
"'That feller'?" drawled Hickey,
"He's ,t lwyer, Slide Ellis, from
up in town,"
"Might as well slog ;'long down
there and sec what he wants,"
1!arwew and the lawyer walked
toward the house, a•td Gary \vent
back to the slush pit, but unease
made hint prickly. )ie went to the
house an hour later, heard loud
voices barking at each other in the
living ronin, and slipped upstairs
unobtrusively.
w *
ile heard the front dour close
\while Ile was shaving, and then
the sharp slam of the back door as
Ilarvcy went out, Then 1?ills' ear
went snarling out of the drive and
when Gary went down again, Ilona
Lee was lingering in the hall.
"Gary, Slide Ellis was here," she
began at once. "'There's some kind
of trouble. 1 could) hear from up-
sairs--part of it. It's something
about this place."
"'Phis place? But you own it.
Yu11'yc owned it for years."
"\\'c haven't owned all of it for
yers. \\'e started with this hun-
dred acres along the road and year
by year we bought more. Harvey
traded for sonic of it and then lie
bought up some mortgages and
foreclosed when he knew the people
didn't have any intention of paying
them off."
"Don't worry till you have to. If
it's serious, we'll )near about it soon
enough—and 'until then w"e won't
worry." Gary gave her at filial hug.
"You're a big comfort, Gary,"
site sighed,
* t'
Clary went back tot the derrick,
fount) IIarvey standing there glar-
ing at it.
"Well, it's begun," he snapped.
"That was Slide EI(,s, I -le sag's he's
going to get out an injunction to
keep me from putting down this
\veil. it's a' a cooked -up rates;, and
01 Kimball's at 'heli ottonm of it: I
ft and out he'd 11e1111 to considerable
expense, travelling around, seeing
the big oil fellows,"
"Just howv is this fellow Ellis go-
ing about stopping you on this
well?" Gary asked.
BY RADIO—HOT DOGS
Hot doge, hamburgers and cheeseburgers heated by radio waves
in a new "electronic gfill" like that above soon will be bidding
for the favor of the great American appetite. Developed by General
Electric and the Automatic Canteen Company of America as result
of work in the radar field, several thousands of the units are
scheduled for mr•:mufacture. Then all the customer will have to do
will be to drop in a dime, and otit will come a tidbit 1il:e the lass
in the photo is about to sample.
''Ile thinks he's turned tip a flaw

from I{lihu I'lnnuner, 1 adz in '25.
Slide trays he represents one of
J'huunler', minor heir,.
1lickey, who had sidled scan r
and \vas frankly listening, spat dis-
gustedly. "flow could old mart
Plummer have a minor heir'" he
demanded. "Plummer wasn't nev-
er married to nobody."
"Slide Ellis claims there's a boy
seventeen years old that he can
prove was i?lihu's son—and that the
boy's property rights in this laud
were violated 11h(.0 Elihu sold nut
to me."
* w r
":1 holdup," said (far)-. "Old
stuff. But he may be able to flet
an injunction, you know."
"1 won't compromise \with a low
heel like Slide Ellis—nor \with that
crummy son-in-law of nine, either.
I'm going ahead with this well, if
I have to fight the whole state of
Texas to do it."
"I'd advise you to see your non
lawyer, at any rate," Gary said.
"I'll go and see hint the first
thing in the morning. And I'!l let
those birds know they're in a fight."
"The thing to do now," Gary told
Ilickey, "is to rush this well down
as fast as we can, safely, before
somebody comes along to stop us."
"O'K, young feller," IIickcy said.
"We'll jam her down till they conte
out with the papers,"
Gary stayed out late that night,
watching the drilling, and :Adelaide
came out with a flashlight and
perched on the tool box, \watch-
ing too. Gary went and leaned on
the box beside h -r. "Lord, i wish
she was down," he said.

Officially, this i, the last day of
the year. IN there is a fly around
here that thinks• it. is the first day
of Spring. Ile's a noisy little beast,
hopping around under the lamp
shade, "You had better look out,
young fellow, or first thing you
know you'll get a dose of 1).1),T."
1 suppose 1 should give hint a doss
anyway but it hardly seems worth-
while hunting the spray -gun for
just one fly. Or is it Supposing 1
lel that one fly live will its pro-
gency run into the hundred:1 or
thousands? Does anyone know?
However, l awn not really worried
—thanks to 1).1).T. Conte to think
of it, one alight almost call the re-
lease of D.D.T. one of the high-
lights of 1015,
* * *
1045—what a year! Do you re-
member the snow last winter ..
and the rain last spring Rentent-
. ber V.E. Day ... V.J. Day . and
after that the boys comping home?
Do you remember how glad they
were to be home, and how confi-
dent that a grateful peovle and
government would give then' a
square deal?
(Thank goodness—Partencr has
killed that fly Nov that's at funny
thing—I never even thought of
swatting it.)
And now let's take a look at
what 1941! has in store for us—or
at least what some folk think is in
store,
There is the weather, for in-
stance. \Ve are supposed to have
a colder winter and more snow
than last year. The summer and
spring are to be wetter and cooler
—all that because we are at the
tail end of an eleven year weather
cycle.
However, prophets arc like doc-
tor:' -they don't always agree with
one another. So 1 guess we can
leave the weather to look after it-
self, take what conies and make
the best of it.
*
And then last Sunday we were
listening to two religious broad-
casts—one right after the other.
(It wasn't nearly so slippery list-
ening to the radio as it would have.
been walking or driving to
church). The first speaker said he
was sure this country was in for a
period of prosperity such as the
world had never known. The
stcond reminded us of the fallacy
of ''crying peace, when there is no
care", that in some quarters there
were already rumours of at third
great war, ,hat the set-up of a
world wide government was doom -
«i to failure and that the Bretton
\Voods agreement would prove 10
In a wash -oat.
* * *
Farm and industrial reports 're
also contradictory. We have been
toll' there will he a steady market
for farm products for the next five
years; but then it is also rumoured
that there is bound to be a revision
of the present subsidy system. I
expect a lot of people have forgot-
ten that the government is paying
a subsidy of two cents a quart on
tvcry quart of milk that is sold,
l-!c.w• long will that he continued,
and if it is removed what will hap-
pen—will the milk go up in price
or will farmers have to take the
loss? 1 don't know the answer—

only the power, that he in Ottawa
''an tell us that—and 1 doubt very
touch if they know either.

In trade circles various controls
have been lifted hot ceilings still
remain in effect which means
manufacturers will not bother
making a cheap line of goods be-
tause there i, too little profit. It
pays theta better to make higher
I rived articles—and because, when
people have the looney and want
to buy, they will buy, no matter
'vhat the cost, And that brings us
back- again to that old bogey 'in-
flation".
As for instance in the case of
sugar. We have been told that
sugar can be bought in countries
other than Cuba—that there is no
reed for sugar rationing in Cana-
ria lint there is just one snag—lt
would cost%twice as much Now do
you suppose that little matter of
price would bother some people.
-There are a fair percentage 1 ant
sure w•Ilo would say "To the dick-
ens with inflation—we have the
money so let's have the sugar."
The pity of it If only we, as a
people, could be less selfish, if only
the Golden Rule were more gene-
rally applied there would be no
neat for world government or Con-
ferences regarding atomic energy.
Surely we can wait for sugar and
other things until some order has
emerged from the present chaotic
conditions.
