A new member in the person of Lion Donald Howes was welcomed to the Club by Lion Norv., and by way of introducing him to club members Lion Norv; asked him a few question. Lion Donald is our new vi+!!age nth man.. The questionairrc brought forth the information that Lion Donald was born in Oxford County, and that he farmed until he was 19, when he entered the cheese industry, 1-Iis work in this con- nection had been carried on in rural areas of Ontario, Ile always had a de- sire -to get into the dairy business, and after inspecting the local set-up, for- merly owned and operated by Stuart Durward, he decided that Blyth was the spot he had been lockln'g for. The interview disclosed that he had won high, honours as, a cheesemaker and •had won the British 1 m sire S icciah 1 t twice, and the C,N,E, championship on three different occasions, 1-fe had been 21 years in the' cheese industry, Lion Donald was - accorded a h'early elconte to the Club. Lion President `Bert Gray reported that, with the exception of the initial cost of securing a sheet of ice, the rink had been almost self-sustaining this winter, at least so far. Lion` Grover Clare spoke' of dances that were conning up in the Immediate future, and which the dance commit- tee had well in hand, ,Because we were about to take a • discriptive journey to the warns shores of Slim', Florida, and because �. the temperature in the Hall was to'say the least, frigid, the Lions gathered around the furnace for the proper set -cocoanuts.

There's a Light Somewhere Hy M, CHRISTOPHER Hal Miers took his time walking from the house to the stable, There was a light wind ruffling his hair, The air smelled clean, com- ing up from the river, He could feel the warm en; feel it burn because during these long months of absence he had grown unac- customed to it, He reached the end of the path and felt for the corner fence post. Proudly he grasped it, It was like a door opening to a light, I've come this far, the rest should be easy, he thought, He sought for the edge of the stable; the wide door pushed open. He figured that the hinges hadn't been oiled since he had oiled them himself months ago, That was just before he had taken off on that crucial flight and crashed Into * mountains. It had taken two live • and almost his, too. It took his sight but left his memories, • 1 • He heard the horse. Michaels The horse remembered him, "Mi• dull" he whispered tensely, The horse whinnied, Hal felt the sole touch hi; outstretched hand, "You of pall How you been, bah? How you been?" Hal sniffed appreciatively, He liked the smell of a horse, H should, for he had practically grown up with -it. "I'll never ride you again, Mike, old boy," he said softly, "I'd pro- bably beak my neck, That's what the doe said. That would be fool; lab, wouldn't it? I'd be a dead duck and not be able to touch, smell or hear you." The horse whinnied again and Hal choked. He hadn't realized how much that had meant! At the hospital, with the gauze on his eyes, he had thought of the wonderful days when he used to ride Michael across the meadow and leap the fence, Hal's father bad purchased Michael as a colt for racing. Right from the first Mi- ehael had won. But a horse gets older. He must quit, Hal had made Michael quit, but he hadn't quit keeping him and loving him. And riding him, too—until now. He fumbled out of the stable and with groping steps started walking back to the house, "Hal, wait a minute." It was his father. "I was wondering when it would hit you like this, son. I know how I'd feel," "That's all rig t, Dad,' Hal said. "Guess I'm just a kid at heart." His father chuckled, "It'll pass, Everything does." Hal fell asleep late and in the :morning !at disconsolately In the living room. nice outside, son," his fa- ther said, quietly, "Why don't you get some sun, You need it on that skin." * • • Outside he could not feel any wind, but he could smell the stable, lie could hear the twitter of spar- rows, the faint sound of the river, And he found his way back to the stable and old Michael, "You're coming with me, old boyl" Hal said. He groped for the saddle, Could saddleyou blindfolded, he used to say. Now to prove it, He led the horse ,outside, The fear began to grip him tighter now, He swung himself upon the horse. "Steady, boyl" he whispered, "Steady I" "Okay, Mike, Let's go. But easy, M first, Let me get the feel of It. Just around the meadow, boy." * • • The horse started off, Hal felt the graceful move of his body and •oordinatcd his own movements 'with it. Gradually, Hal made him ltd faster, each time clinging tight, or to the reins In his hands, The wind whipped against his face, and a couple of times he felt himself *way off to one side as Michas.' plunged to snake a turn, his hooves bumping against the hard ground, But he always righted hirnselt and stayed on. Hal laughed against the wind, laughed loudly, in the sheer 1 r of rlcliing once again, at the game time prodding Michael to a faster and faster pace. Presently, a voice shout ed through the whistling darkness at "Son1 n• Heaven's sakes, what're you d ing? Stop , I" Nal laughed the louder. "I'nt rid - fog, Dadl" he shouted back, "Rid - fog! Can't you see?" h Ears Open A young girl was t Been to her first football match. All the wa`ryy through the game the onlookers raised their voices, criticising or complimenting the two teams. When the girl returned hone her father asked her which side had won.

Crating a drastic change in cir- cumstancei This was the problem which confronted the particular producer, director and cameramen of the National Film Board when they were making the film, "Ca- nada - World Trader," a film which is now playing on the rural circuit film programs in Ontario counties, The movie -makers knew that most Canadians were aware that Canada had chilled significantly during the wars that we are now the fourth Industrial power in the world, as well as one of the great est exporters of raw materials. Put the movie men knew that a great many Canadians did not ap- preciate the implications of this change. A lot of people would say, "So what?"—and never give the matter a second thought. Someth' g New Added Soto bring the point home, the movie -makers used the technique of contrast. As the film opens, you see a night panorama of London in the nineteen -thirties. As you watch the nighf lights you become aware that you are looking at the capital city of the most highly in= dustrialized nation In' the world. And, by contrast, you see what the pee_�pplt of the world think of when they hear the word, "Cana- da." Canada was famous then as an exporter of such vital raw stuff as wheal, cattle, sheep, timber, pulp and fish, Indeed, her lead in these prodtttol vias iB nno Sinai Lay re- rponsibl£ for victory nt 1945. But, loose tit Canada in 045 or 1948. To adapt the old phrase, "something new has been added." This is no mean matter. It, means that nations which used to send us manufac- tured anuf ctured goods in return for our raw materials can no longer do this, since we can supply malty of our own manufactured goods. It also meant that we are in a position to help wir-torn countries in Europe and Asia in many more ways than we could in 1939, We send them machines as well as food. Canada Industrialized This brings up a serious point, Our industrialization has shown us that the world is not as large as we thought, Our own prosperity de- pends to a verb great extent up- on the prosperity of other natio•ts. If they are depressed, we cannot for long escape the same fate It is to our very best interests to play as vigorous a part in world affairs as is possible, This is the serious thence which rusts as an undercurrent through "Canada — World Trader." The film, however, is also a record of the retnarkable industrial achieve- ments of Canada during the past decade, In a sense, the war forced us to become. "industrialized, For our own defence machines had to be built, The techniques and the tools necessary were unknown here —we had always imported such things before, Canada's Place In the World In the food industry, in muni- tions plants and itt 111 phases of in- dustry, Canadians worked out their techniques and made' their own tools, At the time the war ended Canada was producing giant gen- erators In Hamilton, locontotives in Montreal, and aluminium at Ar - vide, to name but a few examples, Products ranging from diesel en' gines and Fea•going ships to farm machinery, Plywood and plastics were being turned out at a rate which would have amazed us in 1939. These products arc still being turned out, • And, for countries which cannot afford to pay for then, Canada has advanced over eight billion dollars in loans, credits and outright gifts, \Ve have made the right start for the postwar era, where the prosperity of one nation affects so vitally the pros- perity of every other nation, "Canada — World Trader" gives • us a picture of our true place itt the post war_world, It is an en- couraging picture, based on our latent power, which we are only now beginning to perceive and ap• preciate, A Good Memory "And when ,were you born?" ask- ed the sergeant, taking down the particulars of a new recruit, "Dtecember, 1917", replied the man. "Ah", mused the sergeant, "1 well remember that winter, It was bit- terly cold", "Cold", echoed the recruit. "I'll say it was cold. I was brought by the penguin—the stork eouldn't make It I" ' LITTLE REGGIE ANb NEXT ON THE PROGRAM... PRESENT REGINALD d Yt��.WN011V. 41.1A+l:l-t:c710N F CARM1, A The Boy Wonder of Canadian Shipping A slim young , an who looks even younger than itis 32 years completed • multi:pillion dollar deal with Canada's War Assets Corpora• tion last week, says Time, With one stroke of th. pen, he gave° Nova Scrtia the promise of bee. ming again, as it had been in the age of sail, one of the world's great ship• ping centres. The boy wonder of Canadian shipping Harry Isaac Mathers president of I. H, Afathcrs & Son Ltd., (founded by his grandfather in I-Ialifax in the 1870's) and of Acadia Overseas Freighters Ltd. which he putt into business only two years ago. Twelve of these ships are now in service, Ali are registered in Halifax. Most of than are re -named for Nova Scotia counties, manned by Canadian seamen. In 1948 ten noire ships, already contracted for, will be put in service, But the boost which will stake Acadia Freighters • one of the world's largest shipping enterprises will come in 1950. Then under l-Iarry Mothers' deal with WAC, Acadia Freighters will acquire 58 Fort type freighters each of 10,000 tons gross, now under charter to the British Government, The price will be between $15 and $30 million, depending on deprecia- tion. The fleet of 80 ships will carry anything from coal to coconuts, any, where in the world, for most will operate as "tramps", going without a set schedule wherever a cargo can be picked up or delivered. These comings and goings will be rigorously regulated by bright' eyed, trigger•nnimded I -Larry Ma- thers'front behind an old oak desk in a modest office a stone's throw from Halifax's waterfront, Aviation Problem 'A curious problem is disclosed in an Air Ministry report on dam- age to aircraft by birds,' stated Colin \Vills, in a BBC broadcast. • 'In the past two years, the cost of the havoc wrought by birds crash= ing into planes has been 140,000 pounds! 'Phis would seem a fairly hope- less problem to cope with. But the R.A,fr, has ideas. , ` 'At the station ar Shawbury, Shropshire, an expert falconer, as- sisted by an 'aircraftmatt who has some experience of falconry, is • starting work with five trained fal- cons, in an attempt to keep flocks of birds off the airfield. The 'fal- cons will kill few birc3; ,the hope".: is that their presence will keep the intruders away.' Progress of Battle For ` Britain's Coal Marked on Map There is a trap in Loudon etu4:.' ded with flags that stark the prog- ress of a, battle on which the fate of Europe will greatly dcpcnc. Each of the flags marks' one of the cola' lieries of Britain, and the sten who watch them are leaders of the Nat; Tonal Coal Board, A green flag shows a pit has passed its target figure, a red one means that it 1. below the required production, Nearly all the flags on the map today are green, Britain's 710,000 miners are pro- ducing more than they have since 1940, and are voluntarily working • longer hours in order to step up production. For nide weeks run. fling they have been digging over 4,000,000 tons of coal and in the week ended December 20 they produced 4,100,000 tons, the 'high— est individual total since July 1940, and higher' than the weekly av- erage for 1938, Miners' Battle Not Easy Coal production is increasing so unrest that the Minister of Fuel, Mr, Hugh Gaitskell, has announced that Britain will be able to begin exports of coal to the continent under the Marshall Plan in Jattu- ary, It will be possible to increase from 119,000 to 200,000 tons a week, the amount of United King dont coal available 'for export and bunkering during 1918, He said, "Britain hopes to export 10,000,- 000 tons of coal, instead of the 6,000,000 tons Britain prornised at the Paris Conference." Freight -Car Shortage Britain is seriously short of freight cars to haul the increasing flow of coal front the mines and goods from the factories, The people have responded to 013 by speeding the turn -around of can in their spare time, Volunteers are pouring its every evening and weck•cid, and for sci'eral weeks there have been very few idle freight cars in the railway sidings. Girls and teen-agers roll up their sleeves to help keep the freight cars moving, * * • The mine leaders in London watch the flagged map with all the intentness of a battle command- er, They have to deploy their for- ces tactically like any general. The scants in .t pit in southwest Scotland approach exhaustion, so orders are flashed to close the pit and move the labor force to a new mine nearby, A winding -shaft itt Durham becomes jammed and the whole mine is paralyzed, sat share -- parts are rushed by air from the ntauufacturers, The mines produced over 8,300,- 000 more tons in 1947 than itt the year before and there is a team spirit in the mines for the first time in 100 years. Rivalry is keen between the miners to outdo each- other's production records.

Ever since one of ottr boys gave hint a mild going- over in Montreal 'Big Bad Bill' seems to have lost a lot of that much adver- tised fight of his—just another of the kind that loves to dish it out, but ea 't take it !" * * * Personally, we have no particular feeling either way regarding Mr. Ezinicki - or any other professional athlete, for that matter, There Was a day when we could follow, with intense and even passionate interest, the progress—or lack of it -of sotne pro. team, But that day is in the dim and distant past. It goes back to the time when a great Canadian Sports Editor—Francis Nelson, by name—gave us n little advice which really opened our eyes. * * * We had been bewailing to Mr, Nelson the fact that "Our" team— if memory serves aright it was the old Tecumseh's Lacrosse Team—was getting' the worst of it from some hated rival, and appeared to be in • great clanger of losing its last chance for the Championship, * * * 'Won't worry .4 , about it too nh►ch advised Mr. Nclon, "Just re mem' ber this—if you were to go into Hoose dressing -rooms, tight now al half- time, and .switch the 'uniforms o►1 Magazine "Facts" Need a Recheck Its a-re,:ent issue FORTUNE — the magazine that sells for a dollar a copy and seldom mentions any- body low r down in the social scale than a millionaire -- published sot -add g of a "bla-t" at Canada, The article, 'among other things, said that "in an even race !Ca11Sas wheat grower might put Canadian growers out of business" - the reason being that 'our farm research was so greatly behind that iii "God's tllitry" Canadians 1x110 pay any attention to this kind of thing are haling a quiet stable t' .thetnselv'cs over such nonsense, According to the C.P.R. "Agricultural and ,. Industrial Pro. gress itt Canada" the world's wheat championship - decided annually at the Chicagn International Crain S11ott -• has been won by Cana- dians just 29 tial"s out of 33 shows held since 1911. More titan that, all four of the wins by noit•Canadiatts Were on wheat from Montana — w'hich lie; along the Canadian bor' der; and the prize-winning grains were all varieties' either originated' in this' country, or from a dscendant Et Canadian strains. It would seem ,as if FORTUNE might, do a= -little' checking 'on its shuck= publicized ``fart • checking" staff. By FRANK MANN HARRIS (';A Sfxbit Critic") those two teals, they'd prolably be battling one another just as hard whets they carne on the field again." * * * Then he added something we have always remembered, and frequently quoted. "When you look at any pro- fessional sport, if you see a good game you've had your money's worth. If it's a poor game, even the fact that it ;tight be for the champion- ship of the world •doesn't snake it any different. A in a t e u r athletes, playing strictly for the fun of it, have no obligation to think too much about the spectators but it's differ- ent with professionals, who if they put on a tante exhibition are cheat- ing those who make their living possible," * * * Here, we scent to have got slightly off the trail of Bill Ezinietd — and whether or not he's lost some of the battling spirit that has characterized hien for the past couple of seasons, Our personal feeling is just the salve as It has always' been—that Ezinicki is a colorful and potentially -great hockey player who was being exploit- ed, mostly by Irresponsible sports Writers, to his own great disadvan- tage. * * * 13illing Ezinicki as a "killer" and all that sort of tripe )night help swell the'box•office tally, and draw extra customers who came only :o holler "Get Ezinicki" every time he stepped on the ice, That's \erYf' fine, especial- ly s eci 1-ly for the type of "sports" promoter whose .idea of the greatest game of the season is the one which broke the last attendance record, * * * But just suppose that Ezinicki— spurred to more intensive efforts by those hostile shouts, he being that type of athlete—shottld by some anis• chance injure an opponent really seriously, perhaps even fatally. In less time than it takes for you to read this, he finds himself suspend• ed, maybe banished for life, * * Inside a month all we writers who hammered oat so )natty greatly- needed columns from his doings — to say nothing of the promoters who cashed in oft his draweing'powers — ac'omld have, practically forgotten !tint completely, or, almost so, if Mr. Cdinicki Ilan pulled in his horns a trifle—is no longer letting himself be made the sacrificial goal for an entire club, we think he has been very zreil advised, Coaches and managers who stress. the "fighting qualities" of !heir leamts have a lot to answer for. • If the peuallics fell as heavily on them as on those they incite to such prowess, maybe they too would "cool nut" a trifle. * * * A week or SO ago we wrote some- thing in praise of the British boxing PILES.Alodern meset• cnce lase overcomdieate alt• mento formerly thought Impossible hike were considered one of them. >That's nonsense today.

John Lardner— son of the great and only Ring W. and himself a smart and thoughtful sports observer -- a couple of days later wrote along the same line, and speaks about how the increasing popularity of television threatens the very life of sport, not only in Britain, but on this Continent as well. * * * "It. appears," he says, "that the. British fight fan is getting his enter- tainment practically everywhere but at the place where fighters are fight- ing and ticket sellers selling tickets, The boys might be fighting al the bottom of the Suez Canal for 0,11101 are drawing at the gate. The big shows are playing to peanuts, slid the small shows folding up." * * * Well, we can picture it as a very sweet thing indeed—to sit by your home television screen and, in a single Saturday afternoon, tone in and see a few innings of World Series Base- ball, some scraps of American and Canadian football, the finish of some of the most important horse races of the day, ,and various other items of the sort—all without the slightest exertion. If you have the only tele- vision set in your vicinity and can charge the neighbors a small ad- mission fee, it will be even sweeter.

In our total trade with the world we are in a good position but not in that part which is done with U.S. dollar countries. Other countries with whom we do business cannot pay us in full, either In cash or in goods, for the things they buy from us, This situation is made more serious than ever before because so many countries, our regular customers, have not recovered from the war, It may be some time yet before they get on their feet sufficiently to help put things right, Meantime, we must find ways and means of balancing our own books and reducing our U.S. dollar deficit. There are two things we can do at the moment,., cut down unnecessary purchases from the U.S, dollar area and increase our production of goods that can be sold to those countries to balance accounts. It's an emergency and should be treated as such. - TO KEEP OUR INDUSTRIES HUMMING...OUR LIVING STANDARD HIGH, WE NEED PETROLEUM, COAL, COTTON, STEEL AND SIMILAR ESSENTIAL THINGS • Postal Department Appre- ciative Of Co -Operation • A • WE CAN PAY FOR THESE THINGS iF WE CURTAIL OUR SPENDING ON IMPORTED NON -ESSENTIALS OR TRIMMINGS .

BATTERIES ANI) MISCELLANEOUS SUPPLIES, GLENN KECHNIE ' Work Guaranteed, Phone 165, Blyth,' ARE you ASKING' THESE QUESTIONS ABOUT SAVING ELECTRICITY? IS IT STILL NECESSARY TO SAVE ELECTRICITY? Yes, Not nearly enough saving is yet being made, especially in the home. Result, for some time past several large industries have had their power supply cut off for lengthy periods in the 24 hours, IS IT NECESSARY to SAVE ONLY at CERTAIN HOURS? No, it is vital to save at ALL hours. While electricity cannot be stored, water that generates it can be stored. The water storage for the five Hydro plants in the Niagara area is provided by the Great Lakes. This fissures a continuous flow of water sufficient to enable these plants to go all out 24 hours a day --still there is not enough power. In 48 other Hydro generating stations throughout Ontario the water supply must be very closely guarded -if too much electricity is demanded one day, the next day's power supply must suffer. This condition is aggravated " by the abnormally low rain fall last Autumn. MUST HOMES DO ALL THE SAVING? Not by any means. ALL consumers must play their full part. Modified rationing has to some extent reduced the consumption of electricity; in stores and by other commercial consumers,' but still greater voluntary savings are urgently needed, HOW CAN I SAVE MORE ELECTRICITY? Don't leave lights burning in unoccupied offices. Turn idling motors off. Use range elements as short a time as possible. Turn off verandah and all other lights when not needed. Use electrically' heated water sparingly. Do not - use electric heaters or grates.

T-Iaskel' tried to keep his temper, but it was difficult. He felt the hot blood of resentment suffusing his face. "Listen to mel" he made a final plea, "We ranchers can raise maybe seventy-five thousand cash between us. We'll buy—" * * * "Three hundred ant: fifty thousand — or nothing." Bartle's smile was Infuriatingly triumphant, Haskell could stand no more of the banker.

Luke Wallace edged closer to the table over which Haskell spoke, "Did you offer to buy all the North end of the valley—as we sug- gested?" he asked, "Yeah, I did." Haskell's lips tightened gristly. "But Russ has been bookkeeping so everlasting much that he hasn't got any re• spe, t for anything less than six figures crowding one behind the other, The price of the north end of the valley—he says—is three hundred and fifty thousand dollars, Cash!" "'!'hat's plain highway robbery!" cried Wallace. "Did you tell him there wasn't that much money in this whole half of the country? inquired Cal- lan. "0f course I did," Haskell an- swered. "But I should have known enough not to. It didn't mean any- thing to !tint, and he cared less," "Did you tell him we wouldn't let any tobacco farmers squat in the north end of the valley?" ask- ed a whiskered oldster from the back of the room, his voice qui• verinr; with emotion. "Yeah -1 told hint that." "And that if one fence went up to keep' our cattle away from the .water we've got a right to, that we'd take the law into our own hands?" urged f,uke ‘Vallate. "Not" Haskell cut him off, "I've been hoping that some of you men have thought of something less slangy than riding roughshod over farmers that are only trying to make a living, after all," He paused for suggestions, glancing from man to man of the grimfaced ranchers in front of him. , "\Vc're going to do something!" Luke Wallace barked, "and : I'm not a young man any more, and I've been here too long to be driven out of house and home by any barbed wire. And since there's no hope of help from the law, then we've just got to forget about the law and use—" * * * "Force?" asked Haskell, "Well," he itetnporizcd, "we can do one thing, As soon as a fence goes up around sweet water that we must have, that fas, we rip it down." "And if that way won't work?" \"apace snorted, "We'll cross that bridge when . we conte to It," Haskell said firm- ly. • He had just opened his mouth to say more when the front door burst open so unexpectedly that Haskell himself, as well as every men present, swung around as if yanked by wires.

Farther afield, Ottawa is, and has been, a great ski country for 'lo these many years' and the people in the arca have a variety of ski spots to choose from. As far as we can learn, the tecncrs of \Vest - ern Ontario lose out on this sport with very few really good skiing hills. Scents the guys. and gals down there go in more for hockey and skating, \Vhen your local ski club has a meet, send along the results and we'll be pleased to publicize the event. In the meantime, don't break your neck. Winter Wonderland While on the subject of Winter, we would like to mention what we think is the most picturesque winter spot in the Province of Ontario. Two weeks ago we left home at 7 a.m. on the coldest January morn- ing in many years (around 20 be- low, remember?) for lforrisburg, PreS'Colt and other points. Well, on the way we shot north to Havelock, From there we went east to'Nfartnora and Afadoc—and that few miles to Marmora is something to sec in winter. The road is winding and hilly, but what scenery! lIcre is truly a cameraman's paradise. As you come over a short rise you find a small house nestled at the foot of a hill, a tall spiral of smoke ascend- ' ing from its chimney. Travelling along between the two ,high walls of snow you meet a man with horse and sled. His dog jumps and rolls in the snow as it tags along behind or bounds ,on ahead. Yes sir, herr is a lwivrr to Previous Vuralr • - t *XXIt16.11111112 fhii [l[i• Asa 1110111110.11111111APPII 111th.•• - •• t_ low I- •r.

Farther east, just out of lttorrisburg, you can sec the oil freighter that Sank in the St. Lawrence last September. Still lying in the middle of the river with her bow sticking out of the water she presents a picture indeed! Steam rising from the river shrouds her in mystery as the icc and water flows over her deck and past. Well so much for skiing and winter travelling. Do They Make You Sick, Too? hiat•c you been listening to the political talk of late, since King has . decided to retire from the field and since the war on prices has begun? You should, providing, of course, that you want to be sick. We have been listening to these radio speeches lately and they make us laugh. Talk about kids fighting over marbles; brother, they are left behind a mile. How educated men, men of supposed dignity and distinction, can talk and act so childishly and mean really gets me; and still our parents and elders will vote and elect them to run the country. This goes on while We are being taught to be honest, sincere and real good ladies and gentleman. Do they make you sick, too? 1f so, write and tell us about it. The Letters Are Coming Letters are conning in, following the announcement of our band con- test and we will have the winning letter in this space next week. May- be you didn't bother to write this time, Well, you have a chance next month, but more about that later. On TI -e (Radio Dial Did you know that the Mayor of "your town, my town and all the little places is now on the air each Satur- day night at 6.45 p.m.? Yes sir, folks, your friend and mine, Andy Clarke, is telling his famous stories every Saturday night. You'll enjoy hien. Everybody does. A brand new programme that yon will enjoy on Sunday evenings at 6.05 p.m. is "Voices of Distinction", Such fatuous singing stars as Nelson Edtly, John Charles Thomas and Jean Dickinson will be singing the songs trade famous by such writers as Victor Hct•bert, Jerome Kern and many'others. hIcre is a family treat each week. Sunday evenings for an inspiring, dramatic and unusual story listen to "The Greatest Story Ever 'told" at 6.30 p.nn. This is a weekly dramatization of a well known bible story—supported by a large chorus of mixed voices. Well, that's our space gone for this issue.

GwendolIne P, Clarks And how did you weather our little sub -zero winter? It was pret- ty sudden, wasn't it? I suppose if the truth were told this paper could be filled wit anecdotes of pipes that froze; of' cars that wouldn't start; and how low the thermometer drop. . ped at this place and that, But I don't think anyone could think up as strange a story as I have to tell, That night, that bitter twenty below -zero night, one of our cows had a calf—and the calf performed the almost impossible feat of drowning itself in the water tank at the barn f * Partner had been tvatchiug the another of this calf very carefully, as she was over her time. Every night this week, just before he went to bed, he would put on boots and overalls and pay a final visit to the barn. If the boys were out late they also would take a look at the cow before turning in. But it was always the sante story—no calf. It was the sante thing Thursday night. 13mt on Friday morning when the boys went the barn there was every evidence that the cow had had her calf—although the calf was nowhere to be seen. Presently Bob came to the house for a flash- light and to tell Partner they had a first-class mystery to solve. That was too much for Partner so then he went to the barn too: The boys having looked in all the possible pl•.cee for a calf to .hide, Partner started looking in impossible places. Presently he noticed the water in the trough was discoloured—and there sure enough was the calf— and it was a big one! r • +t Perhaps 1 should explain that the trough is an extra big flat open tank about three feet high, stands in an out-of-the-w;ay corner of the barn and is for 'the purpose of catching water piped in from an overflowing well at the back of the barn. As you will have surmised, the trough was not covered, nor had it ever seemed necessary. It has been there for about seven years, and calves' have been born and raised without any mishaps, insofar as the trough was concern- ed—but of course there always has to be a first time, Naturally losing a calf that way is quite a loss but what bothers the mast is the fact that the p001• little thing was drowned. 1 can hardly bear to think of it especially as it trust have been particularly strong and active. * * After breakfast—and after the birth and untimely death of the calf had been discussed a dozen times, young John went to start his car—he uses it .every day for transportation in a part -tints job. The car, of course, refused to start, But Bob had no trouble at all with his truck'so he towed Johnny' down the lane. In a little while the motor started—and then it caught firel The anti -freeze had boiled over on to the hot motor and ignited. Be- tween them the two boys got the fire under control before too much damage had been done, except that anti -freeze to the tune of $3.50 had to be replaced and some re- wiring Inlay be necessary. John said the anti -freeze had tested eleven below just recently. Usually that is plenty but I always insisted on a twenty -below test when Hiatt anything to do with a car. Which now, by the way, 1 haven't! • * * "The Greening" still lives here but we don't own it, Early last fall John bought it. 1 no longer felt the net! of a car as Bob has a vcry nice little % ton "pick-up" which is just as easy for me to drive as a car. And since most of my driv- ing is just back and forth to town— and not any more than I have to in winter ---the car seemed like something we could do without, and since John was determined to get a car of some kind it worked' out very well all round. One person said to me afterwards—"But of course you can stili drive the earl" Well, maybe—John has said so anyway. But the idea doesn't appeal to rte. To my way of thinking it would have all the earmarks of a "corny" deal. So far I have used it only once.
