TOMS of the
ROM'
CAMf_<�
By BILLY ROSE
Sedgewick, Alta,
Canadian Curling Champion, 1996.
This is one of a series by out-
standing Canadian curlers relat-
ing what they consider their
"most thrilling moment" in com-
petition for the Macdonald's
Brier Tankard, representing the
Canadian single rink curling title.
While there are many thrilling
incidents I recall during the course
of the 1916 13rier at Saskatoon, two
of the 1946 Brier at Saskatoon, one
stands out in my memory very
viv'itlly.
The "thriller" occurred in the
first game my rink played against
Howard Palmer and his Calgary
Club rink itt the Provincial finals
at Edmonton. Howard Palmer is
a wonderful curler and a swell fel-
low to boot. \Vc had met in two
previous British Consol finals and
Howard had had much the best
of it, winning both.
In this year's final Howard was
three up going home in the first
game of a best of three series.
\Vhen I went to throw my last
rock he was lying in front of my
lead rock and it would take a very
accurate shot to displace his with-
out losing my back rock or rolling
out myself. I was lucky enough
to get the right "I3room" and
weight, staking the shot to lay
three and tie the game, forcing an
extra end. In the extra end illy
rink sewed things up so tight that
neither Howard or myself could
do very much about it when our
turns came to shoot.
The making of this shot, was
naturally quite a thrill to me and
no doubt to the hundreds of spec-
tators, but I believe that the stak-
ing of that shot also provided added
inspiration to the other members
of my rink to such an extent that
they went into the second and what
proved to be the final game with
plenty of confidence and this game
was not so close. It is also quite
possible that this shot coming as
it did when the gauze seemed over,
had somewhat of an adverse effect
on the playing of the Calgary boys
in the second game.
All Consumers
Tucked away behind the big
news of the week was a little item
from Oshawa a few days ago stat-
ing that members of a C.I.O. stecl-
work. rs' Von thcte had decided
fo clip their own Hair, now tTiat
the price of haircuts had gone up a
bit. What is so striking about the
view's is that it places one set of
workers against another set of
workers, and proves so clearly that
every worker is, above all, a con-
sumer.

"Victory" Wins
Another Victory
II.\LS. Victory has proved a
thimble as well as a famous ship.
Built in 1765, she is not only some
thirty years older than the Con-
stellation, dean of American war-
ships, but is eleven years settlor to
the Unita! States itself. She has
survived storm and shot, the simple
iron projectiles front French and
Spanifh ..guns and the bombs that
Nazi airills'raincd ttow'n on Ports-
mouth, says the New York Herald
Tribune. :\'nal now it appears that
this victorious symbol will be vic-
torious again—over beetles.
The borsr beetles were first re-
ported sapping the Victory's heart
of oak in 1930, and the campaign
against them began. It was not
as spectacular as Trafalgar, when
the Victory led a British squadron
into action and flew Nelson's fa-
tuous signal, nor did it have the
sante significance for history. But
if it had been lost it would have
been just as fatal to the Victory
as if the gunners of Admiral Villc-
ncuv'e's fleet had been more accur-
ate in their fire at Trafalgar. For-
tunately, D.D.T. caste to the res-
cue; the insecticide was blown into
holes bored in the timbers, and
last year, .it is reported, some 60,-
000 beetles a day succumbed. Now
there is reason to believe that "the
Victory has (at least fifty years of
service left in her," which would
bring ''her ,to the ripe age of 231
years.
Isfaybc there is a moral here; a
victory which sustains the shock of
battle must fight its hardest cam-
paign against insidious insects, Un-
fortunately, there is no scientific
formula for insecticide to safeguard
a victory of the spirit — indeed,
it is rather difficult to get any
general agreement as to what is
worth saving and how to detect
the insects. But the effort is worth
making if the victory was worth
winning.

I-Ieads don't conte any harder

The rawboned winger, a gradu-
ate of Pittsburgh Hornets, was
born at Sault Ste. Marie, Nov. 6,
1922, is an inch shy of the 6 -foot

his hockey schooling in the Soo,
playing two seasons with the

A standout with Stratford's

turned pro with the Leafs before
the season ended and managed to
squeeze into the Stanley Cup fin-
als against Detroit as a temporary
replacement for Sweeney Schriner.

Klukay joined the RCN VR in
April, 1913, and qualified as a Phy-
sical Training Instructor with the
rank of Able Seaman. Joe played
hockey with Toronto Navy in
1943-44 and the following season
was a star with the IU.M.C.S. Corn.
wallis team, ;Maritime service cham-
pions.

Throughout the 1945-46 season,
Klukay played a starring role for
the . Pittsburgh Hornets in the
American Hockey League. His
rugged play and scoring punch
netted hint 26 goals and 23 assists
for 49 points in 57 league games.
In six playoff engagements, Joe
bagged 4 goals and one assist.

Small Courtesies
We do not suggest that young-
sters should be trained to call their
elders Sir and Ma'am, or instructed
in any elaborate code of etiquette,
says the Ottawa Journal. It is a
pity, though, that a boy should
grow into a youth, and the youth
into a man, without hating conte to
all instinctive knowledge and use of
the small courtesies which do so
match to smooth the rough' edges of
our crowded lives. The lad who
forces his way first into a tr'ant and
sits while women stand is not to be
blamed too much --he doesn't know
any better. But somebody is ,to
blame for a duty neglected.

CHRONICLES OF
GINGER FARM
By Gwendoline P. Clarke
Familiarity breeds contempt —
so the old saying tells us, and it
may be true -- but of one thing 1
am sure — familiarity docs breed
indifference.
We hear so much about various
things — the housing shortage,
juvenile delinquency, inflation and
subsequent depression, the inade-
quacy of old age pensions and re-
habilitation problems. But do we
realize the seriousness of what w'e
hear? I ant afraid few of us do,
We listen to the radio, hear in-
stances of this and that, as told
by the announcer, and for a min-
ute or two it registers and we say
"Oh, isn't that dreadful?" or,
"That is itfl t too had—why doesn't
the government do something about
it?" Poor old government—either
Federa or Provincial—what would
we do %without it for a scape-goat?
And then we go on with our work,
our hook, or our card game, and
the incident is forgotten.
# #
*
Take the taro labour shortage.
\Ve know it exists but I ata afraid
both town and country people alike
just shrug their shoulders. 'Town
people because they don't know
what hardship; result as the direct
outcome of a labour shortage, and
farm people becaur4c they are al-
ways hopefully expecting t hat
something u ill turn up and that
somehow or other they will get
by! And, be it said t their credit,
they generally chi. But when the
unforeseen occurs, then they are
really up against it. As you 'MOW
we had a '.audile of that when
Partner fell on the ice. What
we would have clone tvithout Bob
to take over the chores I actually
+lon't know,
But last %eel: I came across a
much worse incident. Our tele-
phone "trouble -man" — who also
runs a farm—was out working on
the lines after that terrible ice
storm, and as might be expected,
he fell. No bones were broken and
it was not thought he was seri-
ously hurt. But complications set
in and now he is in hospital. Ilis
wife is left without any help o.. the
farm and there are cows to milk
and young cattle to look after. Per-
haps that doesn't sound too much
hut 'let me tell those who don't
know, that cattle must be fed and
stables cleaned, and forking hay out
of the mow and pushing a loaded
wheelbarrow out of the stable is
work far beyond the average wo-
man's strength. Vet that is what
the farmer's wife is up against un-
less she can get help, Imagine all
that work and worry in addition
to her -natural anxiety over her
hubsand's condition — and not a
man to be found anywhere! Even
our local "Rep" apparently has
far more applications for help than
men to fill the jobs.
* * *
Very often some such instance
as 1 have given you proves to be
the straw that breaks the camel's
back; the climax to a fight against
almost impossible odds. And the
next thing we know another farm
is up for sale.
Maybe that sounds like a gloomy
picture of agriculture, Maybe —
but yet through the gloom I see
a glinuncr of light. It may be just
a hunch bu: I certainly have a
feeling there is a great future for
agriculture—how soon and to what
extent I wouldn't like to hazard
a guess, but yet I have a hunch
it is coming and I think it will
come about through those who
are not farming, becoming farm -
conscious, with a better realization
of the work that is required before
eggs are put on the market, milk
into bottles and meat in the
butcher's window, This realiza-
tion may, in turn, be the result
of an acute short supply of farm
products — the aftermath of farm
labour shortage.
Wouldn't it be a grand idea if
there were a compulsory land army
which required that every able-
bodied youth should serve for one
year on some kind of farm, board
free but wages paid by the govern-
ment. Then, at the end of the
year, if he showed any lilting for,
and had any aptitude for farm
work, he could hire out at cur-
rent wages. That, my dear friends,
would really wake 'em up. That
would definitely put " an " end to
any indifference to farm problems
once and for all.
Ilonourable Minister of Agricul-
ture, please take note.
Co-operation
When all sections of the com-
munity realize that we cannot live
off each other, but that prosperity
h based on a co-operative economy
in which all contribute in accord-
ance with their ability and re-
sources, then there is no reason
why good times should not con-
tinue. Grasp and greed can lead
only to grief.

TEEN•TOWN TOPICS
By BARRY MURILAR
\Ve remind you here that next
Friday, February 11th, is St. Val-
entine's ])ay. Slip out and get the
gal friend a nice heart before they
are all gone. \Ve don't make as
much of this day as we used to, but
it doesn't hurt to let someone know
you are thinking of them, \\'c don't
suggest this, but if you're broke,
call the gal and read her a verse or
two of something sentimental . .
If anyone is listening in, they'll en-
joy it too.
TIIIS '\ THAT—In going over
the dial lately, we have found that
several radio stations across the
province are giving "air -time" to
the teeners; the most recent being
CFOR of Orillia. The teeners of
Orillia opened their first program
by having the Mayor, F. C. Veo,
say a few words for tine future
citizens. The gang up there arc
trying hard to get a permanent hall
and club rooms and are letting
everyone far and wide know about
it via the ether. They write, pro-
duce and direct their own fifteen
minute show, called Teen Town
Time'. Congratulations gang.
CH11L of I-Iamilton gives the
young people of that area time for
discussion each week that is draw-
ing current interest from young
and old. \Ve heard one of these
broadcasts a few weeks ago and
the thought-provoking arguments
set tip by these teeners made me
stop and think.
In tine eastern section, Kingston
and Oshawa are giving time to
teen shows. Last week CKDO of
Oshawa had a guest pianist as tvell
as their regular . eener news of the
district, They apparently have re-
porters that dig:tip the social stuff
through the week, write it, and
then present it on the program.
Nice work, too.
Joe Crysdale of Toronto's CKEY
of course has listeners all over the
place when he comes on with Club
580 each day at 4 p.m. Many out-
of-town teeners get down for this
show and we frequently hear of
visitors from different parts of the
province. \Ve think Joe is doing a
great job for the young people and
we ,know they appreciate It.
I mention these shows just to
illustrate that we young ins aren't
being ignored by the oldsters.
They must feel that we have some-
thing on the ball, or we wouldn't
be receiving these privileges.
* *
•
While on the subject of radio,
we note that Eddie Allen of the
CBC Happy Gang was recently
. picked as the nation's fat orite
singer. \Ve remember Eddie as a
boy when he used to go out ttitlt a
group of young Wren from the Fred
Victor Mission of Toronto, singing
and playing his accordion ---we'd
say he's hitting on all four.
.\ dance hand, well known to
high school hops across the pro -
v ince, is that of Bobby Gimby—
also of the Ilappy Gang. A former
member of the \l;u•t Kenney outfit,
he formed his own group and has
been climbing ever since. \Ve hear,
that between now and the summer,
he will have played at high schools
all across tine province—which is
proof ertouglj'of his popularity with
the young fry.
«
We have been hearing a great
deal about the fart clubs that
some of the teen gangs have. How
al:out letting us hear about yours?
This idea of fan clubs isn't new-
-but it seems to be ever growing
in popularity,. Remember this is
your column and your arc invited to
make use of it.
With the current rise in restaur-
ant foods, dining after a show for
even a shack is going to bit the old
pot pretty hard. We have always
enjoyed a snack in the kitchen after
a night out — especially the girl
friend's—and now will appreciate it
even more.
When w'c started writing the
column today and tossing in a
little of this 'n that, we wondered
where it would end. There is one
item that we would like to draw
to your attention, and that is the
new book, "Your Manners Are
Showing" by Betty Betz, Written
in a style you will understand, it
gives the many do's and don'ts
that we younger generation should
keep in mind. You'll enjoy (his
book and at the same time find it
helpful, so keep it in mind.
I think I'll go home now and
learn the words to the new song,
"Open The Door, Richard!" before
I go nuts. If 1 hear It once more
today, there will be no more Teen
]'own Topics, at least not as
written by your truly.

New Shipbuilding
British shipyards, experiencing
their greatest boom since 1922, had
1,937,062 gross tons of new mer-

The British total amounted to
more than half the 3,678,481 gross

world, except for Russia, Poland
and ex -enemy states whose figures
were not reported.

CIIAII'I:It II Itorhy i1J"rl:land,
Met ale's employee and friend, de-
cldev to do some investigating, Ile
finds that the bride Is h ires8 10
twenty ntlllon dollars and that the
darltirig and popular bridegroom
appears to have plenty of money
alto.
CHAPTER III
McCale shrugged. "Plenty if i
wanted to let it run away tvitlr toe,"
Ile turned to Ann. "Did you line
up the Bigclotvs for me?"
"With no trouble at all, The ref•
cranes books, newspaper files, and
%Vho's Who are practically inhabit-
ed by them, flare is the stain out-
lIne," She took some typcwrittenn
sheets out of a manila envelope and
started to hand it to McCale.
"Read it off," he said, "Rocky
might as well have the information,
too."
"Well," she began, "Ute Perkins -
ss and the Bigelows go right back
'-long before the Tea Party—if
that's the sort of thing you want."
"Skip that. Bring its up to date."
"Okay. The money all comes
from cotton mills in Lowell, and
clipper ships and the Oriental trade
before that. '1'he l'erkinscs and the
Jligclows intermarried, and so on.
Adelaide Bigelow, our client, and
her brother, Joel, are and were,
respectively, the last of the line.
Adelaide never married, Joel mar -
lied twice. His first wife is dead.
Is that clear?"
"Perfectly."
"Joel's second wife, Sybil, is ap-
parently not of the royal purple.
IIer family only seems to go back
a generation or two. She was a
widow when he married her. She's
a lot younger titan he, too."
* * *
"He was seventy when Ire died,
five years ago, and she was forty-
three 11 en. She had two children
by her first marriage, a son, Steph-
en, and a daughter, Victoria. Their
name was Bennett, but he adopted
them, and they changed to the
Bigelow surname,"
"Then Veronica, the bride, is a
daughter of this second marriage?"
"No. The first Mrs. Begelow died
In childbirth — that is, in giving
birth to Veronica. The old gentle.
man married Sybil Bennett three
years after. Am I bawling this up?"
"No, indeed, It's very clear. Go
on."
"There's not rnuclr more. Stephen
was married two years ago. He's
an airplane designer at present. He
'parries a girl from St. Louis —
Swedisit descent, but social and all
that, A Karen Cristofen, Not touch
fuss around here about it."
"What's that?" He. picked up a
folded square of paper that had
flattered from her lap to the floor,
"Olt, I nearly forgot that. It's a
rotogravure cut of Veronica Bige-
low from the Sunday herald of a
few ,from
ago."
* 4 *
McCale unfolded it and spread it
flat on the top of itis desk. The
likeness of a very pretty girl looked
up at hint.
"That really doesn't do her jus-
tice, 1 should" say," mused Amt. "I
understand she has gorgeous red
hair and a beautiful figure."
"Well, we shall se," said Duke,
handing it back to her. "Tuck it
away with the rest of the data and
transcribe Rocky's notes for a file
on Vallaincourt. I'm due at the
ancestral mansion for tea with Miss
Adelaide at five—or thereabouts.
You and Ann hold the fort here.
I'll call you.
The Bigelow house was on that
mound of Beacon street that slopes
gently to Charles street and the
Gardens,
Atlslaide Bigelow was waiting
for McCale in the drawing roost on
the second floor, A butler, old and
quiet and unobtrusive, had answer-
ed his knock and led hint through a
flim hallway, preceding hint up
dark, thickly carpeted stairs.
The rbont was at the front of the
horse, Heavy red draperies at the
wide high windows were already
drawn, Frail Miss Bigelow stood in
its exact centre, small and patrician,
against the background of a huge
black marble mantel,
"Please do smoke," Miss Ade-
laide said in her soft, troubled
voice. "This room is rather over-
powering, isn't it? It has never been
changed since the (lays of my
grandparents. It takes the children
to cheer it up. They should be
along soon, There was a rehearsal
at the church this afternoon." She
sighed,
Ile was obsessed with the
thought that although her voice
was calm, unhurried, there was
something empty anad trembling
in her.
Ile said slowly, his voice low,
"Perhaps you have something to
tell me before the others arrive,"
She looked up quickly, one fist
tightly clenched in her lap, "0h,
no."
* * ,
"Damnation," thought McCale,
"\\'hat is the matter with this
woman? Or is it me? ;\m 1 getting
out of practice? I can usually catch
something significant 10 my own
subtle way, but this baffles roe, I'll
stake my life that there is some-
thing seriously wrong in this room,
in this house, Something Is going
to happen."
She rose and walked past hint
to the door, her dress rustling like
dry leaves. "I want you to see the
wedding gifts," was all she said,
closing the door of her mind sharp-
• ly in his face,
A quick black anger flared up in
hint, His impulse was to stalk from,
the house, but reason held him,
reason and the disturbing unrest
that had remained in his brain and
nerves ever since her visit to his
office that morning. He followed
her downstairs,
Heavy double doors intricately
• carved in designs of fruit opened
off the lower hall into an immense
dining roost. Table and sideboards
were loaded with silver, lamps, ex-
pensive glassware; rare, beautiful,
odd, pretentious gifts for the bride
and groom.
r * *
McCale walked around the dis.
play slowly, nodding at Miss Bige•
low's remarks: "Very valuable; an
heirloom; priceless," and so on. He
was ready to grant the necessity of
protection for this collection, was
beginning to push away the odd
hunch he had been playing all day,
when he felt, rather titan saw, a
sudden change in his client. •
A quiver rippled over her frail
shoulders. Her stands, fluttered
helplessly as she came to a sudden
frozen stop. They had reached the
far end of the table. Ile heard her
gasp and looked down to see the
strangest gift of all.
It was a model, to scale, of a
small modernistic house, set in
miniature landscaped ground s.
Complete with casement windows,
sun deck, glass -walled patio, it was
an architect's (!ream of the plus ul-
tra in a civilized dwelling place.
There was even a tiny roadster on
the curved highway, a swimming
pool in the rear, a statue in the
small, geometrically plotted garden.
The model had evidently been on
display somewhere, for an engraved
card attached to one corner of the
base read:
$ * $
Model of 1042 House—The Nest
Crystal Cove, Nahant
Architect—Christopher Storm
Beside McCale, Miss Bigelow
swayed. IIer face blanched. With
eyes half-closed, site reached for
and held up in her trembling fin-
gers a long legal envelope that had
been lying beside the model, From'
it, she took a folded document,
opened it slowly. Over her shoul-
der, Duke saw it was a deed, ceding
the property and buildings of
Christopher Storni at Crystal
Cove, Nahant, Massachusetts, to
Curtin Vallaincourt.

Sunday School Lesson
Jesus, the Bread of Life
John 6:25-35, 56-58,
Golden Text. -1 ant that Bread of
of Life.—John 0:48.
The Multitude Gathers
It was the lime of the Passover,
about the middle of April and
many persons tvere on the way to
Jerusalem to observe it. Late in
the afternoon the great multitude
around Jesus was increasing and
among the disciples alarm was felt
for their foodless, shelterless
crowd. Jesus demanded that they
be fed.
It was ascertained that a boy
had a very small amount of pro-
visions, five barley loaves and two
small fishes, only a boy's steal; yet
there were more than five thou-
sand persons to be fed!
The Multitude Is Fed
At Jesus' bidding the nt tltitude
was arranged in an orderly man-
ner. They were divided by the dis-
ciples into companies of fifty and
a hundred and commanded to sit
down upon the abundant grass, Asi
to the precise moment the miracle
was wrought, it is supposed that
Jesus broke the bread partially and
that the disciples carried on the
process as they gave to each one
his portion, the bread meanwhile
increasing as they continued to
break and distribute it. So the
hunger of everyone was satisfied
and the fragments remaining were
conserved) by the provident Christ.
The impression made by the
miracle was deep, widespread and
wholesome. At once the people
identified Jesus with the prophet
predicted by Moses, meaning the
Messiah,
The Bread of Life
The next day at Capernautn
Jesus meet natty of these people
and l spoke to them about the Bread
of Life. I -Ie declared that He is the
Bread of Life, which means that
He is the true and only sustenance
and nourishment of the soul.
Jesus drew a sharp contrast be-
tween the physical and the sipirit-
ual: the father ate of the manna
aid it was life to them as they
wandered in the wilderness, but
eventually they died. This "true
Bread" which is from Heaven gives
the spiritual life which has no end.
"Godmothers"
Expansion of social services in
Britain and increased attention to
child care have so broadened the
scope of the Women's Voluntary
Services that they will be converted
to a permanent peacetime organiza-
tion.
• Under the chairmanship of 1.a(ly
Reading, this million -strong army
of women gave magnificent service
to their country during the %va r.
It has been decided to set up a
corps of "godmothers" to look after
neglected children and it is hoped
eventually to provide a "godmoth-
er" for every child in every institu-
tion in Britain.
They will take personal interest
in the children, invite them to their
homes, and generally give them
personal attention and love to com-
pensate for loss of their mothers.
Rubble And Trouble
If they started now 10 remove
the bricks, stones and other rabble
from the streets in Essen, Ger-
many, and 1,000 tons were moved
daily, it would take 15 years to
clear the city. That is the condi-
tion of many German communities.
'1'he people live wherever they can
lay their heads. Their existence is
on a par with the animals.

Some Good Tips
For Housekeeper
'!'here are so many tips to good
housekeeping, the new homemaker
will no doubt welcome a few at a
time.
When something you are cook-
ing happens to scorch set the pan
into cold water at once. This will
take away the scorched taste and
is well worth trying.
Strained honey thae las been on
hand awhile sometimes becomes
hard and sugary, It can be re-
turned to its original condition by
setting the container in a pan of
hot water and heating it for a
short tints.
A deliciously different confection
can be made by stuffing dates with
nut pleats and then rolling the
dates in shredded coconut.
One mother warms her baby's
vegetable soup, or strained vege-
tables, in custard cups put into a
small pact of hot water for a few
minutes. This saves pan washing
since the baby can be fed from
the cup in which the food is
warned. Custard cups also keep
the food warns.
Use soy bean cracker .crumbs in
scalloped dishes, such as macaroni
and cheese. They improve the fla-
vor and add extra food value.
Chicken for use in salad is im-
proved in flavor if it is left stand-
ing in the broth for an hour or
more. A little chicken stock added
to the salad dressing snakes the
salad still more tasty,
If you want something new and
tasty, slice a banana into the batter
of spice cake. It changes the flavor
pleasantly,
Parsley will stay green for a long
time if it is washed in cold water
and put into a jar with a tight lid.
Keep in the refrigerator. • •
Save the spicy liquid front pic-
kles and add it to the vinegar when
pickling beets.
Japanese Quit Hideout
Japanese stragglers who had
been hiding in the jungles and
mountains on Bataan peninsula
since March of 1945, have surren-
dered to Filipino military police.

The game got under way at 9:15,
