Clarke Soiletnties you wonder at the cruel tricks that hate can play. And we certainly wondered this morning. In fact the whole neigh- borhood was shocked when it woke up to find a big bank barn near here, with practically all its con- tents burnt to the ground, Also burnt were about a dozen cows and heifers, some pigs and over three hundred hens. In other words not only did the farmer suffer the loss of his barn and livestock but also the source of his weekly income. The ;city of it is, the farmer in question was a young war veteran who served with distinction in the R,C,A,F. The war being over he, with his young wife and baby, set- tled down to what showed every promise of being a successful ca- reer as a farmer, And now this, Can you imagine the sheer ter- ror of getting up in the morning to find your barn a blazing in- ferno! For that is what happened in this case. No one knows how the fire started -the young farm ear got up to begin his day's work -and there was the fire. The loss is all the more unfortunate when equipment and building materials are so hard to get -and at such a price. * * * That all-important subject of price brings us around again to the latest price increases -soap, tex- tiles, leather goods, fats and oils. \\'hen the price increases were first announced I just about saw red -especially when Mayor Saun- ders, of Toronto, announced Itis de- termination to keep the price of milk down, if at all possible. I won- der if he knows that the farm population, as well as urban, has to pay all those other increases too. And we need something to pay with. Well, after a while I began to cool off and I filially cattle to the conclusion that possibly the up- swing_in prices might result in a levelling off. period, and also bring about a possible reduction in the spending money of the young fry, which would certainly be for their ultimate good. * * * Imagine this: A friend of mine who often stops in at a tearoom told me that time after time she has seen high school youngsters come in after school, order a "coke", sandwiches or sundae - possibly all three -and spend any- where from fifteen to forty-five cents each! Surely it isn't reason- able that teen-agers should have money to spend so freely. How can they possibly learn to appreciate its value -and how do the parents stand it? No wonder there is such a hue and cry for higher salaries and wages if the fortnightly cheque, or weekly pay envelope, has to provide so generously for the youngsters' spending money. The wisdom of cutting the gar- ment to fit the cloth must surely be out of date, giving way to mod- ern methods of pulling and stretch- ing the cloth every which -way to get all the garments one desires. At the same time one cannot help feeling sorry for the kids because it will be hard for theta to under- stand and to make adjustments when this easy -come, easy -go pe- riod comes to an end -as cone it surely will. * * * But of course the young folk are not the only offenders. I suppose we have all developed an "I want" personality to a greater or less de- gree. Beverley Baxter gave a good illustration of this last week in his address to the Canadian Club in Toronto, which no doubt some of you he;.rd-I hope so, anyway. Comparing the difference in the presen, standard of living in Eng- land and on the North American continent Mr. Baxter said - "In England necessities have be- come almost luxuries, whereas in Canada and the United States of America luxuries have 1 econne ne- cessities!" * * * Back to the subject of price de- control. From what I have gather- ed high prices ase not expected to last- very long and you will have noticed that most of them 'are things that woolen have to deal with -so it is up to us,• isn't it la- dies? For a while we can bake .less, buy fewer calces and cookies, patel and darn and make -over a lige longer. And if you should want proof that I practice what I preach you should just see Partner's over- alls!

The other man wore a brown fedora above a sharp featured face. They looked tough and ready for anything -and at the moment for me. * * * The bald man was shuffling cards -the kind you play bridge with. He turned them face up and placed them in a line in front of him. The chisel face was rattling a pair of dice in his left hand and every so often made a move as if to throw them in my face. I was scared. "Little boys should never gamble," said the chisel face, "never gamble at anytime, no mat- ter how good are the odds." He bent over close to roe, and as I tried to move back, I found my arms and legs securely tied to the chair on which I was sitting. "Why did you gamble, little boy?" asked Baldy, "didn't you know it was a bad thing to do?" "But I didn't mean to-" "Shut up, little boy." Chisel face reached down into his pocket and pulled out a bottle of coke. He held it in his hand, looking at it for a n1oment, then held it out to me. As I reached for it, he slowly pulled it back, "Bad boys should be made to sweat a little," he cracked. "You lcok very warns under those lights and I'll bet you're thirsty, You are thirsty, aren't you, little boy?" "Yes," I replied meekly, "You're h u n'g r y too, Very hungry." Chisel face then reached down and pulled out a chicken sandwich, and began to eat, making soft munchy sounds and putting on a face of satisfaction. "What would you like most, little boy?" asked Baldy. "I want to go home," I replied. "Ha, ha," he gargled. "Get that, Chisel, little boy wants to go home." * * * "You gambled today little boy. You should never have done that. Those who gamble pay a penalty, especially those "Little Boys" who gamble. It never pays off. You know that now, don't you? \'ou wish you had never tried to make that dollar triple itself. You're sweating little boy. You're paying for your misdeeds now." Chisel then sat back on his chair and caressingly fondled his slice. He held them up to eye level and slowly moved then forward until they moved up close again. Then he nodded to Baldy. * * * Baldy glared at me, which made ole feel sick away down inside. He got up from the table and walked around behind rte, Slowly he let the cards fall over me like water from a shower. "These cards and dice belong to those who gamble," Chisel shouted at me, "they are yours to keep for- ever," "I want to get out of here. Let me go," I cried. I twisted an( writhed, but the ropes held me tight in the chair, "Little boy doesn't look so smart now Clt'tsel. He looks scared, and h• should be. Now we'll give him the gambler's rub down." They moved in close and untied the ropes that held ole. Chisel slapped my face -hard, and then twisted my arta behind roe. I kicked and lunged out. Suddenly everything went black and a new picture carte into focus, "\Vltat are you doing on the floor, son? You have your father and everyone else in the house awake." * e * I turned suddcoly and there was my mother, standing in the door- way of my bedroom. I got up off the floor feeling very foolish. "I had a -had a very had dream," "You must have had," said my mother, "The whole house shook when you hit the floor," "I did a bad thing today mother," I confessed, "A guy told me if I gave hint a dollar, he would bet it on a horse for ole and 1 would get three dollars back. I dreamt that I was in a room with two tough men and they had dice and cards. They kept telling me little boys should never gamble - then they tried to beat ole up. Gee mom, that could happen to anyone. 13oy, I'll never gamble again." More Ice, Faster T h e conventional method of freezing ice is slow and expensive because of the extremely low heat conductivity of both water and ice. Now a machine has been developed that will freeze ice more than 100 times faster than present conven- tional rnmethods. A thin lay of ice is formed over a revolving core, or drum and is continuously scraped off. The ice may be used in flake form or, by simple pressure. molded into ice cubes or cakes of any de• sired size.

CIIAPTER IV Wordlessly, as McCale bit his lip to keep silent, Adelaide Bigelow re - tlaced Ole decd in its envelope. She urned slowly, motioning hien to leave the room with her. The bright brilliance of "The Firebird" rippled through the gloom of the upper hall on a shaft of yellow light from the open draw- ing roost door. Someone was play- ing the Stravinsky and playing it well, McCale, following Miss Bige- low inside, saw that the room was now occupied by three women and a mean. llis client drew hire forward, to the woman at the piano, She was exceedingly beautiful in an almost cinematic way, The high rheek- j>ones of her face shadowed the briniest of hollows. \'ou could have swept the floor with her lashes, be- hind which glowed humorous blue eyes, licr month was sensuous, and thick with vermilion lipstick, As if all this were not enough, hair the color of flax hung in a long bolt to lice n1iornldcn.

He caught an amused glance front Miss Bigelow before she presented him fo the couple sitting on the sofa. "Victoria Bigelow," murmured Miss Adelaide, "and Stephen—the bride's sister and brother." The girl looked a little old around the eyes, a little hard around the mouth, There was something viper- ish in the way she held her pointed chin. She looked at McCale, her glance traveling from his head to his toes, as if she were selecting a horse or a dog for her own special amusement, It was very easy to see that Stephen Bigelow was Victoria's brother. IIe had the sante hard finish, the white skin, the narrow face. Already there was a crease of cruelty around his uneasy mouth. IIe wolfed a drink while nodding to McCale, but his eyes wcrc fixed on the woman at the piano. •Tlie w•ornan at the piano! As they crossed the room in her direction, the charm she diffused, the spell she wove seemed to grow stronger. IIe wondered what it could be, for upon closer inspection, her face was older than it i'ad seemed at a distance, . N y "Mrs. Stephen Bigelow," said Miss Adelaide, and left McCale looking down at a polite Garbo-ish mask, a slow smile, and slender. cigarette -stained, fingers picking out a lush tone. Ile sensed what slavery there must be in loving a woman like this, could see that part of Stephen's restlessness vas a sick- ness, and that he was living on the cocaine of her rnagic. She didn't resent his standing there as she played. She didn't speak or smile or make any effort to putt him at itis ease, She knew he was dazzled, not quite sure of himself, but it didn't even seem to amuse her. ?IcCale looked tip to see hiss Bigelow offering trim an old-faslt- loncd. "The dear old thing actually has a cynical glean in her eye," he thought. "Surely this silent piano -playing Swede isn't tate men- ace emace around here." Karen had seated herself beside her husband, and, joined by Sybil, the small group was carrying on it desultory ronvcrsation about the wedding rehearsal, the bridesmaids, and the ushers. "Site's very beautiful, isn't she?" raid Miss Bigelow, catching ?fcCale again with his eyes on Karen. "Mat," ?fcCale grunted, smiling. "Is she always like this??" "A Nordic princess?" Miss Ade- laide smiled, slight distaste curling the corners .of her month. "I .. l'm afraid not." blank." "Just so." "She's very talented," "Vcs, indeed." Miss Bigelow was making hint feel like Paul Ivry. Why Lad she been giving taint the impression, in the hist few minutes, that Karen was worth watching then? Ile changed the subject. "Will you want me to have my mean on duty tonight?" He watched her closely. All the tightness carte back into her eyes. "1—I don't know." Suddenly Ile was like a man wait- ing in a dentist's office, wanting to start something, go in there and get it over with. Ile started to talk, almost blurted out, "You're in some trouble, Miss Bigelow, You need help. Yon do. You carte to me this morning with it written all over your face. You're afraid of sonic- tlling—sornctlling that has nothing to do with wedding gifts." ile made a gesture as if he were wav- ing them away. "Yon are afraid. 1 know." e * t "I suppose you do," But though her hand trembled, her eyes were vacant, "'fell me what it is. Give me your confidence. If you want my help, I must have it.

"Veronica—dear," MIFS Bigelow touched her, kissed her. There was in her voice a note of passionate concern, of pride—of relief. Adelaide Bigelow introduced the golden girl in the doorway to Mc - Cale and he was surprised at the creature's throaty, mellow voice. 13111 wasn't there something a trifle nervy, a bit disquieting, about the edges of that voice?

She made a futile gesture as if to ward the girl off, but Ver- onica was out of the room before the movement was even content. plated, \iclale found himself liangiiig in the air, so to speak, pumping the (rand of a man whose name he hadn't heard.

(To Be Coetinued1 Princesses Study Afrikaans Language Afrikaans, which the two Princ- esses are learning in preparation for the royal tour, is the Empire's youngest language, says The \fan- cliester Guardian, South Africa has two official languages. constitutionally on a basis of equality — English and Afrikaans. Until fairly recent years Afrikaans was regarded by many Englishmen as a language specially devised by politicians for the pas- time of "twisting the Lion's tail." Actually, it is a language which has grown naturally for over two centuries out of the parent lang- uage of The Netherlands. It has been written, consciously, for two generations, and is now for the Afrikaners, who are the ma- jority of the white inhabitants of South Africa, the general medium not only of colloquial speech, but also of the politest and most sci- entific ,discussion.

Sunday School Lesson Jesus the Light of the World John 9: 1-12, 30-33. Golden Text. -1 ant the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.—John 8:12, The Blind Beggar It was perhaps at the Temple entrance that Jesus, as he passed by, saw a man who was blind from his birth. As Jesus beheld the un- fortunate man, the attention of His disciples was attracted, and they `expressed the belief that the faults of the parents• reappeared in their children. They held that every af- fliction was traceable directly to some special sin. Jesus' answer, "Neither did this matt sin, nor his parents: but that the works of God should he trade manifest in hien," docs not mean that the beggar and his parents were sinless, hut that no special sin of theirs has caused this ca- lamity, The Beggar Honors Jesus When brought before the Phari- Modern Etiquette By Roberta Lee 1.

Some said that the healer was not of God because he had broken the Sabbath in the practice of heal- ing, while others thought a sinner could not perform a miracle. To satisfy their minds as to the ident- ity of this man, his parents were examined, They declared that he was their son and that he had been blind front birth, He that was blind was again called and instructed to give God the praise, and not Jesus, who was considered a sinner. But the man persisted in honoring Jesus and also refuted the arguments of the Pharisees. Spiritual Light Jesus asked the beggar the fun- damental question, "Dost thou be- lieve in the Son of God?" The an- swer of the healed man was made honestly and earnestly: "who is he, Lord, that I might believe on him?" The answer of Jesus was a self -revelation of Himself as Mes- siah, Savior and Lord, The poor man's eyes had been opened for a sublime purpose. He looked upon ,Tesus and saw more than when he looked for the first time upon the great world around him, Jesus was Himself the Son of God, Then came the climax 'in the word and deed of the blind beggar: "Lord, I believe, And he worshipped him.

Chicken Feathers May Help Solve Clothing Shortage Shades of the 1920's1 Sweater girls are again becoming "flap- pers, Hou. L, H, Eyres, trade and industries minister, revealed today that British Columbia scientists have come up with a method of making a new fabric front chicken feathers. ' Mr. Eyres, establishing himself as an authority on the subject, told members of the D.C, Fruit Grow- ers' Association convention that it takes the plumage from a mere 30 broilers to turn out a size 18 sweater. Like any wool, the new fabric is said to be warmer, softer and light- er and can be dyed any color, The feathers from 38 chickens will, under the new process, be- come a full tnan's suit.

The drifts 011 the plain street, according to Mr. }lack - well, are the highest that he can re- call. Drifts ranging from five to 12 feet in depth made travel, even on foot, almost impossible. The drifts on the roads made it ne- cessary to close the school until plows cleared the piles of snow from the streets. School in the surrounding community have not held classes since last Tuesday but are again gradually getting hack to routine. In the schools that did attempt to hold classes only a very small fraction of the pupils, that being the senior boys, fought their way through the snow -clogged roads, The noon train running front Guelph to Goderich was over an hoar late.

He's a right-hand shot — and what a shot) Pucks don't fly any faster than the way Poile propels 'eat and that deadly drive and his play - making ability have earned him the nickname of "Point -a -game" Poile, • Bud„ prior to this season, has played 74 N.H.L. games and has 84 points to his cerdit, • In 1942-43, his only full season as a Leaf, Bud scored 18 goals and had 19 assists for 35 points in 48 games, In playoff competition the same season, he bagged 2 goals and 4 assists for 8 points in 8 games. During the 1943-44 season, on leave while transferring from the Royal Canadian Air Force to the Canadian Army, Poile played 1t games with the Leafs, FIe scor- ed four goals in his first start and in the 11 games collected six goals and eight assists for 14 points. Last winter, back from overseas service, Poile played nine games for the Leafs and clicked for nine points—one goal and eight nssists. * Like Gaye Stewart and Gus Bodnar, Poile is a product of the Thunder Bay hockey incubator. I -ie was born at Fort William, Feb, 10, 1924, and began his climb to hock- ey's big time via the bantam -midg- et -juvenile route in his home town. * • Scout George (Squib) Walker, who nabbed hint for the Leafs, says that Bud was "a super star" as a junior, He and Bodnar were team mates with the Fort Wil- liam Hurricane -Rangers for two years and after Bodnar won the scoring championship of the Thun- der Bay League, "Squib" protnis- ed Poile a trip to Toronto to see the Leafs in the Stanley Cup play - Norman (Bud) Poile, Centre Swiss Boom Switzerland is an island of pros- perity in the midst of Europe. Fig- ures just received show that indus- try is humming, everyone is at work, the cost of living is stable, and prices have fallen a bit. The tourist trade reflects this situation, as foreigners have been flocking back to Switzerland in greater numbers than ever since 1934, to enjoy the good things of life to he found there es nowhere rise in Europe. —`Jt`i v.a 17 it: Z^'1 offs if he could win the scoring title the second year. Bud did and got his trip. 'The next season he was playing for—not jnst watch- ing—the Leafs. * ,Poile joined the Canadian Ac- tive Army in April, 1943, transfer- red to the R,C.A.F, and .then re- turned to the Army, He went over- seas in July, 1044, and served with Sigals Corps in Italy, France and Germany. He was in Oldenburg in Northern Germany on VE Day. Prior to returning to Canada last March, Poile was picked for an All-Star Army Headquarters team that toured France and Czecho- slovakia. He spent itis 22nd birth- day last Feb, 10 in "Gay Paree." Bud was married in 1043 shortly before going overseas. Britain Slates Humble Folk For High Posts Columns are being written about the fact that the son of a butcher is being slated for the governor - generalship of Australia, says the Ottawa Journal, \Vhy? Surely it has ceased to be news that sons of butchers and bakers and other humble folk have won by divine right of intellect to the highest posts of power! And not merely in new countries like Australia, the United States and Canada. rn England, where they are supposed to have a caste system, democracy in government but not in society, any number of men, sons of poor Montes, have risen to the summits —lode over the records of \fr, Att- 1ee's ministers! More, turn to the supposedly blue-blooded Conserva- tive party and note that the de- scendant of a Yorkshire bare - knuckle fighter and flintier rose to he Lord Chancellor—F, E. Smith, later Lord Birkenhead. It is an inverted snobbery which assumes it is wonderful news when a poor boy rises to the height to which his intellect entitles him.

Current Affairs An educational experiment ap- plied to Britain's fighting Services during the war, which proved high' ly popular and successful has re- sulted in an important new devel- opment in methods of education in Britain's schools, It is the intro- duction of current affairs as a reg- ular subject into the educational syllabus. This change is a direct outcome of topical discussions and informed guidance which were ar- ranged by the \Var Cabinet to en- sure that every fighting man should have adequate opportunity to ac- quire a basic knowledge of world affairs. "Current Affairs" is now a well established item on all school schedules. NOT MUSSED It's Still Work Mrs. Blank—Do you want cln- ployment?"

War Bride, Babies Given Big Welcome '['he recent publicity given to that small group of English war brides who reported their unhappy experiences in the United States is no doubt overshadowed by the thousands of brides who received a royal welcome. The following story is' authenticated by the writer, who participated in collect- ing the money mentioned, says H. B. E.,• in the Christian Science Iefonitor. 4 :1. G.1.'s of the 82nd Airborne Di- vision, returning home on the Queen Mary, were particularly charmed with three young travel- ing companions—rosy little triplets, aged perhaps eighteen months, on their way to America with their ' mother. It soon became known that their father was an ex-G.L, now discharged and waiting in the States for his English wife and babies, and immediately .something was in the air. The Quern Mary steamed into New York harbor, the young father was on the dock, 10 be greeted, not only by his family, hut with a check for several thousand dollars -- a welcome -home gift to the babies from, the thousands of Americans on board.
