In Grandma's parcel we in- cluded a ca:, of mincemeat. They wondered how they could make t ninccpies without lard, But the next day carne a parcel from Part- ner's brother in Australia and in it a pound of lard. Cicely spoke of having received a parcel from an unknown friend in Vancouver and how pleased she and her fanc- ily were to have it. I suppose it must have been sent by some or- ganization sponsoring parcels for Britain. 'Anyway, the letters were so cheery and appreciative for the little that we on this side of the Atlantic do for our friends over there, that they completely dis- pelled my sense of gloom occa- sioned by bad weather and rising prices.

For good results it is very innportant that the mixture be kept In a cold place, covered, to prevent the yeast from working. Soft or Crusty Rolls Cut off small uniform pieces, fold sides under until top Is smooth and dough is round. For high, soft rolls, place close together on bak- ing sheet; for crusty place an inch apart; for very crusty rolls place itt greased muffin tins. Cloverleaf Rolls Shape very small pieces of dough into balls, brush with melted fat and place three balls in each muf- fin tin, Finger Rolls Cut dough into uniform small pieces, shape into balls.

CHAPTER II The old voice faltered and trailed off. McCale iookcd at her attentively. "OP course. I'm quiet and unob- trusive and inclined to be helpful." She dropped her eyes. "I-1 think you're the man I want." "It doesn't exactly take brains to watch over a table of wedding presents." "I know that. But if something were stolen, if something (lid hap- pen, you'd have to investigate, wouldn't you?" McCale glimpsed then, for an in- stant, the whirlpool of events to tome. There was something in that remark alone that piqued his curi- osity. * * * IIe made up his mind. "That will be twenty-five dollars a day," he said, and added, ntcaningly, "for guarding the wedding gifts," But she would not rise to his bait. She searched a moment in a large black bag that hung from one arum, A hundred -dollar hill crackled as she put it on his desk. "A retainer," she said. "One moment, Miss Marriot will give you a receipt." "Never mind. It isn't at all nec- essary. Will you come to tea this afternoon, at live?" "To tea?" "Yes. Please do." Time tired old eyes pleaded with him. "The family —you should know tltetn by sight —and there might be something to talk over --some arrangements you might want to make." "Why, yes," he agreed, sudden intuition quickening in his mind. She seemed relieved; turned to go. "One moment, Miss Bigelow, You'll want me to assume respon- sibility—when?" "Oh, right away." That look had come back into her face again. "Immediately," "But the wedding is—" "I know. I'd feel safer"—she caught herself — "that the gifts would be safe if you were to take charge today, They keep arriving -moro and more—most valuable, some of them." He cut in on her embarrassed floundering. "Very well. "I11 see you at tea. That's all you want to tell me?" She looked wretched. "That's all," she said. The door closed quietly after her. McCale stood staring thoughtfully Into the fire, He heard Ann Mar- riot say good -morning and the out- er door shut, BROWN w.H.Y PIATYRII "She's a nice old thing," said Ann Marriot, "1 hope you weren't curt and distant with her. She seemed to be in trouble." "She wants me to guard her niece's wedding gifts." "But..." He shrugged. "I took the job." IIe flipped the hundred -dollar bill under her nose. • "Nice big retainer. Funny. She seemed sort of lost to rue." "Ann," \icCalc said, "that old lady is frightened!" * * A nursemaid's job to a lot of iced -tea spoons.

He liked this fellow. Rocky Bjorkiand was more like a colleague than an employee. He was broad and blond and a bit on the rough side, but he had clear, honest blue eyes and a loyalty as big as his shoulders, Duke wouldn't have hesitated to trust him with his last dollar, or his girl's best friend, or his own best girl for that matter. Ann Marriot came in on the last part of the harangue. She set a coffee percolator on the desk, and busied herself with cups and saucers. • * • "Keep your shirt on, Tiny," she said to the big fellow. "Duke has a hunch. \Vhy not let him (10 the talking? We only work stere." McCale helped himself to a sand- wich. "There isn't anything definite, Rocky. The old lady Bigelow, aunt of the bride, comes in here to hire special service—that of guarding the wedding gifts, That's her story. But look here. She doesn't want half a dozen men planted there. She is after only one inconspicuous man; not for the day of the wedding, but starting now — for the duration. That in itself is screwy. Besides that, she doesn't want the police and she's turned down operators from all the big agencies. To top it off, she acts as though the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse were tracking her down." Rocky's eyes narrowed. "Skip- ping the mythology, maestro, 1 think T do see a glimmer of light. In other words, she doesn't give a - hang if the wedding feast Is lousy with kleptomaniacs. She's got other troubles." * * :k "Exactly." "Go to the head of the class," said Ann. "Well, where (lo we conte in?" "You've got me there.

Sunday School Lesson Jesus, the Giver of Life John 4:411-51; 52-9; 11: 11-13, Golden Text.—1 ant the Resurrec- tion, and the Life: he that 'me- lieveth in tae, though he were dead, yet shall he live.—John 11:25 Recovery From Death Recovery from the point of death was wrought by Jesus for the nobleman's son who was ill with a fever. fn his extremity the noble- man went to Cana, begging the Great Physician to cure his child. The response of Jesus to his ap- peal scents tinged with harshness but in reality it was a stepping- stone to higher, stronger faith: "Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe." The amasses were too prone to ignore the sig- nificance of his signs and to dis- regard the worker of these won- ders. The increasing faith of the noble- man who reiterated his appeal was rewarded: "Go thy way; thy son liveth." It was not necessary that Jesus should go in person to Caper- naum and lay IIis healing hand upon the boy's fevered brow; He could heal at a distance. The faith that secured the blessing caused the nobleman to turn belicvingly from Cana on his way hack to Caper- naum. The Cripple Is Healed Jesus went up to Jerusalem and there found a great crowd of sick people lying around the pool of Bethesda. It was the general opin- ion that the first afflicted person to step into the water would be instantly healed. Jesus singled out a man, lane for thirty-eight years, as the object oP His mercy. The Great Physician now gave His own prescription for healing: "Rise, take up thy bed e (pallet) and walk." Resurrection From The Dead Resurrection from four days in the tomb was wrought by Jesus for his dead and buried friend, Lazarus. After attendants had taken away the stone that closed the entrance to the vault, Jesus lifted Itis eyes heavenward and offered to the Father a prayer of thanksgiving for past answers, an expression of confidence as to fu- ture blessing, and the desire that bystanders "may believe that Thou hast sent rue." Then He cried into the sepulchre, "Lazarus, come forth." From the bandages of death Lazarus was immediately released and thus walked once more among the living. Wartime Marriages Mostly Successful Within two years one out of every three marriages contracted by members of the armed services in uniform—anywhere—will have ended in divorce, it was estimated recently by the associate secretary of the Board of Evangelism and Social Services of the United Church of Canada, Out of about 40,000 British war brides who have arrived in Canada, a few hundred have given up and gone home, which would scent to indicate that this group is having, if anything, better than average success in making a go of marriage entered into in wartime. But for some strange reason their failures, a comparatively small percentage, seem to have been singled out as the only ones suitable for public dissection. ISSUE 5-1947 How Can 1 ? By Anne Ashley Q.

Big -Hearted It's a little late in the season, hank of the St. Thomas Times - Journal admits, but the story of the letter carrier who was expecting a nice Christmas gift from a well-to- do woman on his route really merits telling.

He greeted the lady at the front door with a regis- tered letter and instructed her to sign kr it, with the pencil he sup- plied. "Now you wait just a moment," requested the lady. I have some- thing for you," The postman waited at the door, wondering if a dollar tip or more would he forthcoming.

A Smart 'Un A school inspector, having end- ed his investigation into the class's knowledge, smiled at them genially and said: "Now, it's only fair that I should give you a turn, children. Can any- one ask me a question that I may answer it?" Presently he heard a woke. "Please zir, I knew a man who has two eggs for breakfast every morning. He doesn't keep hens, zir, he doesn't steal eggs, or buy eggs, zir, and nobody gives them to hini. Can you tell me where he gets them frons?"

Quickly the guard came along to •assure them, "Somebody pulled the communication cord and the brakes acted too quickly. The last coach has left the rails. There will be a delay of three hours." "Three hours!" cried a young man, "I'm to be married this afternoon," "Are you the fellow who pulled the cord?" asked the guard, suspicious- ly.

By ED FITKII'I One dynamic youngster who should be a great favorite with Toronto fans is Ikrwic Meeker, 22 - year -old rookie right - winger. They don't make 'em any more spirited than 1-I o w i e the Howitzer" and his bid for an N,ILL, con- tract was one of the most en- livening aspects of the Toronto team's training sessions at St. Cath- arines, The diminutive, chunky starboard winger, an amateur last winter, was the only graduate of the hockey school conducted by the Leafs before the regular training campaign got underway, 4 4 4 Ilis story is a heart-warming one. Two years ago he lay in a military hospital in the north of England, his legs gashed and pock -marked with shrapnel wounds, wondering if he'd ever play hockey again. The young Canadian had been severely wounded when a live grenade ex- ploded at his feet during training manoeuvres. The explosion hurled hint eight feet in the air and ticket- ed hint for a four-month sojourn in the hospital. Howie Meeker Right Wing k Howie still maintained his hopes of someday becoming a pro hockey star, despite the injury. After leav- ing the hospital, be took a physical training course, found out that his legs \vere going to be all right, then took two more P,T, courses and qualified as a sergeant instructor. Soon after that he went back into the European combat zone. It was his second invasion as Howie had previously spent three months on the Continent in the fall of 10.14, helping to repair bombed railway rolling stock. He had enlisted in Stratford, Ontario, with the No. 1 Canadian Railway Workshop Com- pany in April, 10.43, and went over- seas seven weeks later. He served in France, Holland, Belgium and Germany. y h * Meeker, who starred with Strat- ford junior teams before enlisting, returned to Canada on the last day of 1045 and, on getting his dis- charge, he signed with Stratford seniors, and was one of their most consistent scorers. In the playoffs, after leading the Stratford scoring drive, .Meeker was halted by a broken arm. Bowie signed with the Leafs last spring and celebrated by getting married a week later. I-Iis hockey ambition always has been to play for the Leafs and now that he's up with them, he won't go down if he can possibly help it. * * 4 Born at Kitchener, Nov. 4, 192.4, Howie got his hockey start in public and high school competition, then starred wit h Kitchener's Junior "B" team in 10.10-41. He migrated to Stratford the next sea- son with Stratford's Junior "A" team before enlisting. * * * His parents live in New I-Iam- burg, which is close to Stratford, and Howie has four young brothers —Ken, Chuck, Tommy and Dick— rooting for hint to make good in the N.H.L. Irish Take Oyer There are far more people of Irish blood in the United States than in Ireland, D. V. Brogan, pro- fessor of political science at Cam- bridge, told the Royal Dublin So- ciety, Between 1820 and 1920, nearly 5,- 500,000 Irish people settled in the United States, becoming the "basic proletariat of the country. The only parallel in history was the migra- tion from Portugal to Brazil. Even so, said Professor Brogan, the proportion of Irish stock was higher in Newfoundland, Australia and Scotland.

Two of Tom's brothers, Marion and William Pitt Edison, and a sister, Harriett Ann, were born in Vienna. Tont spent some of his summer holidays with rela- tives in Vienna, Worked it Sarnia, Stratford Pioneers migrating westward front Nova Scotia founded Vienna village in 1811, and among them were Toni Edison's great grand- father, grandfather and father, the latter a youth t the time, The great grandfather, John Edison, had been one of the original settlers at Digby, Nova Scotia, to where he and his family had migrated from New Jersey at the close of the Revolutionary ‘Var. During the war, he was a Tory and loyal to the Crown, and as such had been ordered hanged for giving aid to the British troops. His sentence, however, was commuted to banish- ment from the United States. Tom's ancestral ties with Can- ada were to be augmented later, when, as a youth, he worked in Canada as a telegraph operator at Sarnia and at Stratford Junction.

SPOTS OF SPURTS By FRANK MANN HARRIS ("A Six Bit Critic") Those Montreal Canadians are reported to be squawking about the spotty nature of the refereeing that is being dished out by the arbiters of the National Hockey League. And, while by no meal), Fluttering b a tl forgetting t t iC Frenchmen scented to have few complaints of that nature during the years when they were mon- archs of all they surveyed, we are somewhat inclined to agree with them in their beef. For about the only consistent tiling about the refereeing we have been getting of late is its inconsistency. * * +n Baseball players have a saying to the effect that you can get away with things in the grey that \sill get youtossedout of the park in the white. This simply means that umpires, in the interests of order and decorum, arc inclined to be ntuclt stricter with the white - uniformed home team than they are with the grey -clad visitors.

ISSUE 5-1947 Stamp Will Honor Father of Telephone A new Canadian four -cent stamp will be issued shortly to conl- Inem0rate the centenary of the birth of Alexander Graham Bell. The stamp, bearing a picture of the fatuous inventor and, physicist, will be formally issued on March 8, 100 year, after Hell's birth it, Edin- burgh, Scotland. 'Hie new issue will be the first cotutncnlorative stamp Canada has issued since 19:19, when a stamp commemorating the royal visit was 1 rimed. Although lie came to Canada in 1870, and resided for a short time at Brantford,. Ont., with his par- ents, he spent much of his life in the United Stataes, doing research on aids to the deaf in Boston and later ill \1';tshingtou.' His diary indicates he got the inspiration for the telephone while on a holiday at Brantford in 1874, and it was in that city that he made tit first transmission of speech u' er .a real line. In his later }'ears, he spent his summers in Cape Breton, and Ite finally Moved to Canada and lived in the !Maritimes for elan} years. ▪ IIe is hurled at Bcitin Breagh, Bad - deck, N.S., where lie conducted early aeronautical experinu'nts and headed a group that produced the first plane to fly in the British Em- pire.

Still, sometimes we can't Help wondering what is the sense of flaming a lot of rules and regulations, getting them nicely printed 111 a book, and theft have your referees officiate, so to speak, by car, When one judge gives a man 30 days in the jug for an offence that would get him noth- ing more than a warning from an- other, there's either something wrong with the laws, or with the judiciary. \\'hen the sante thing happens in hockey — heck, Ptesi- dent Campbell 0f the N.H.L, is a lawyer and should be able to figure 011t the atlalogy 011 his own. * * * One reason why basketball is rather slow in catching on as a major sport around Toronto may be found in a remark passed by a friend of out's recently, A Peal hockey addict, lie had just seen his first basketball game and w'as ask- ed for his opinion of the pastime.
