The expedi- tion, known as "Exercise \lusk- Ox,•' will test new equipment specially designed for winter travel under extreme conditions, and is ex- pected to unearth, as well, informa- tion that will be invaluable in the future development of the .Arctic's mining, trapping and fishing possi- bilities. The above mala, prepared by the official cartographer of The Canadian Geographical Society, shows the route to be followed, 'Exercise \toads -Ox" will test three new techniques svhich, if found suitable, \will greatly affect future travel in the :\retic, These \rill be the long-range performance of snowmobiles, transportation of supplies by air, and the use of radar and astro-navigation devices in the hitherto unnavigable arras around the magnetic pole. Previous army expeditious al- ready have resulted in improving methods of travel and living in the north and, in addition, much valu- able data tw ill he made available for future military operations should they become necessary, From Laker Lake, where an ad- vance meteorological and air hase has already been established for the expedition to the Arctic Ocean, the route %sill cross some of the least - known parts of Canada, all of which are unmapped, svith the exception of flack Riser.

From there it will travel overland to strike the first trees near Port Radium, Early in May it is scheduled to reach the Alaska Highway and then follow the 700 -anile stretch from Fort Nelson to Edmonton. THE INSIDE ON HOCKEY By ED. FITKIN The hockey world was Maurice Richard's oyster last season when the roust Montreal l anadien sL tr was shattering all previous pro hockey scoring records svith Itis amazing total of 50 goals, But just recently, \laurice sadly sighed: "The worst thing I ever did was to score those 50 goals," * * * \Vhat he meant by that, of course, is that he has become a marked inn n, that rival clubs put their toughest checkers on his tail, and that tht road to the goal no longer is a hath of glory. Under this in- cessant hounding, Richard sands to have developed a pettiness that is proving costly to Canadicns in the w;tv of penalties. Recently one Montreal syriter asked this ques- iou: "Mhen is Richard goinp t quit licitly a chump ch'ayinp those sucker penalties:" * * K The moral to this, of course, is that fame is fleeting. Richard \vas a damn) last year and a chump this season. No longer do those avid Ilaliit,utt touters couple his mune with the great \lorenz. Even among the Teslas men \w1'0 guide the N. I1. L. teams there scents to have 0eveloited a change of heart re- ga.r' iug Richard. "After all," one coach told me recently, "Richard s'avred all those goads ago r.st war- time hockey players who certainly weren't tip to N. II. L. standards, .News that the guod players are hack from the servicers, he is just 111 ordinary player." * * When Doug Bentley was in- jured, one Chicago )writer went fa- cetious on his public and worried that the stadium )would be filled for a hockey game and the llawks )wouldn't put in an appearance—be- cause they had no one to lead them onto the ice , Doug, as you may know, succeeded \i 1-h March as the leader of.thc Iiawk parade into battle this season . . . The Chi Hobby Develops Into Business .1 hobby of bet -keeping has been turned into thriving, profitable business by C. \lurden Johnson, a local resident, and his example suggests that others might Will their hobbies into a business and get good financial returns, says The Niagara Falls Review. From a single swarm of bees, Mr. John- son, a nature student, has develop- ed the higgest bee -keeping busi- ness in the Niagara Peninsula with splendid financial returns. Tha original colony now has expanded lite, GI colonies of bees and honey business \worth $30,000. Mary people likewise have hobbies that could be converted into profit- able business ventures, scribe's problem was solved, how- ever, when Max Bentley took over the leadership job. Tlabe Pratt, always popular svitlt the sportswriters, is getting plea y of what the hockey players call "favorable ink" from the men who pound typewriters. Public scntimctt is also on Pratt's side, Ilis appeal w ill likely he heard at the hoard o Governors' meeting in New Turk on Feb, 15, attd unless there is more evidence in the case than has been preset.ted, the feeling is that Pratt still has a chance to evade such a drastic sentence, While big Labe is the first pro hockey player to be expelled for gambling, Ile is not the first to be banished from the gauze. Billy Couto, a star with Boston I3 ruins, Bas expelled from hockey for life for an after -game attack on Re- feree Jerry Laflamme back in 1927, * * * Don liallinger, the Port Colborne product who is doing such con- intent sniping for Boston, scored ruins' first goal of the scaon and also the 100th, Speaking of the Bars, little Kenny Smith has done a capable pinch-hitting chore for Lill Cowley and Art Ross says: "If that kid only had 20 more pounds, he'd be a corker," Turk Broda, back with the Leafs, is int spletsditl physical shape, played o\r, :to game in England before cause back and looks exceptionally sharp for a goalie w•ho has beets out of big time competition for so long.

STOPS COU�HS Costs of Strikes In Relationship To Rewards Worker, Employer, Consumer --All Groups Suffer Loss Strikes are co-uly to ;ill group, in the community, says the New York 'tunes.

This is ;Ill so t',ht'ious that it scarcely needs repetition, \\'hat is les, obvious is that the cost in - solved is often excessively great in relationship, to the rewards 10 be 1\'011. .\u illustration is found in the cost of the present steel strike to the workers. 1'he companies have offered an increase of 15 cents au horn', which would be the largest increase ever received by these workers. This strike has been call- ed to obtain an additional :Ili cents an hour. if the 15 -cent offer were accepted, steel workers \would earn about $1,29 an Motu', On the basis of their own demands they )would earn $1.321/4 an hour. * * t Every hour's \work that is lost because of the insistence upon an additional :13_ cents an hour costs the steel worker at least $129. It would take hint thirty-sev'ee hour: of work at the additional 31/2 cents an hour to stake up for the loss of one hour's pay of $1.29, In other words, if the steel worker is unem- ployed for one forty -horn' week it will take hint thirty-seven frill weeks at the higher rate to stake up for the lost time. If the strike lasts for two weeks it will take seventy-four weeks to stake up for the time lost. If the strik- ers were out fon' a month, it would take 118 weeks, or almost three full years, before the earnings los; dur- ing the strike were recouped, * 1 These figures, of course, cru not in themselves establish the merit of the offer made by the steel companies. They do not in them- selves disprove s1r. Murray's claim that more could have been paid, Litt they .(do call attention to a factor which Is frequently lost sight of, when union labor rejects a major gain in favor of a strike.

CHRONICLES of GINGER FARM You remember I mentioned a few weeks ago that mail -time was niy favourite hour of the day, I should have qualified that remark by saying—"If someone else goes after the mail," When I trail down to the road for it myself, that s something else again, I don't have to—if Bob isn't around Partn:r tells me to leave it until noon in 1 he will get it. But I never twice ptomises because if I sec the mail- man stop a the gate—well, 1 cal,'t wait—I just have to get that mail. Maybe you wonder what all the fuss is about; why I mention any difficulty in getting it at all. Well, if you had a lane nine hun- dred feet Tong, filled with snow, and had to face a strong north- west wind at anywhere from zero to ten a�)ove, you would know wast T ant talking about. * * • Saturday, for instance, 1 knw there was a parcel coming by mail so rather than face the worst wind of the week I deckled to take the car. Bob had been getting in and out of the lane so I thought I could too. I backed the car out, got as far as the corner of the house— ow' stack, good and properly. Toe c ar would neither go backwards no, forwards. Partner was busy at the barn, and I wasn't prepared to co any shovelling, so I just left it there. I went back to the house am this time 1 took with me an umbrella as protection against the wind. With it I struggled down the lane, stopping once or twice '.o get my balance, so strong was the wino. No, I didn't let the umbrella brow inside out, if that is what ou are thinking. * * * Returning the wind was in my back—but I still had plenty sf tt ouble. I had a big box to carry, a shopping bag that I took to car- ry the mail home in, and the um- brella to manipulate. The rats in the lane which the truck wheels hat made were deep and narrow: the wind drove one along so tast that I lost my balance. Over I 'went on to the snowbank—parcels and all. Tippy was with nuc and I ant sure she thought "Now this is fun," for she came bouncing along and was all over me before I knew where 1 was. And that didn't help. Eventually 1 reached the shelter o; the house, So tow perhaps you Around 40 our energy lessens. But, ex. perience has taught us to do our work with leu effort.

My authority for that statement is a U.S, publication which says that thread counts and dyes are getting better and a steady improvement in quality and quantity is expected during the summer. It also said experiments have been tried to make clothing without stitching.

Not aulnthrr exodus is com- parable to the Exodus of Israel from Egypt. Saved To Serve It was the hand of God that took Israel out of Egypt. It utas done by tests and signs and wonders and 6t eat terrors, as it the ten terrible plagues; and by v.ar and a !nighty hand and outstretched arms as at the Red Sea when the army of Pharaoh rsas overthtuw-n and the power of Egype broken, The calling of Israel to he God's rhosene people was an act of grace -- Israel was saved to serve. \l uses declared that it ryas not bcause of their numbers that God called then(, but because he chose to love tltent. Moses impressed un Israel the (nighty power of the nations yet to be driven out of Canaan before they can enter upon their inheri- tance. But the same mighty hand which brought them out of Egypt will bring than into Canaan, The Duty of Israel 1'he divine program was defined in the duty of 1 sracl — implicit and constant obedience. The Com- mandment of God must be kept. Then the people would he blessed with prosperity and peace. Their posterity would enter into a goodly heritage. The country would be secure against the greed and ra- pacity of other nations. Thus Jehovah gave them their land with the utlderstanding that they should use it for Elis glory and return it to flim with rich fruitage in the fulness of time. Books of Remembrance The sixty -thousand civilians, oten, women and little children, killed in the cities of Great Bri- tain by bombs of German aircraft, now have their names commem- orated in Westminster Abbey. Four "Books of Remembrance" have been placed in St. George s Chapel, neor the tomb of the Un- known Warrior, in a beautifully carved and clectrically•illuminatej thine, there to rerinain for ever.

SIDE GLANCES Too Late After leaving his church the min- ister stopped to shake hands with a young woman who was a new member of his congreg.ction. In tate course ut conversation the miu- Istcr remarked how pleased he al- ways was to welcome new mem- bers to the church. The young woman blushed prettily "It's very kind of you to say so." Not at all," replied the minister. "Just let me have your name and address, and I will be able to call and see you." "Ohl" stammered the girl. "1-- er—I'nr afraid you're too late.
