"That's enough, Bartle!" Maxon
snapped,
Purposefully he walked toward
tate table where, in a drawer, he
had put the six-gun he had wrench-
ed out of Clark \Veber's hand.
Bartle flung open the door as a
horse flashed by. He leveled his
gun slowly, murder in his heart.
"Drop it!" Maxon commanded,
Bartle wheeled, fired at D{axon
instantly.
Che t Maxon floundered back-
ward. But before he toppled he
shot" twice, The shots kicked white
puffs from the plaster wall over tits
landowner's shoulder.
Completely panicked, Bartle dash-
ed for the barn, No amount of real
estate nor millions in a bank could
have held hiin in that house another
minute. All he asked of life now
was a swift horse!
A great shadow; fell on the barn
door as he tugged at it, A cry
came from the banker's dry lips.
He tried to turn around, Like a
hangman's hood a dark velvet cape
settled over his head.
A muscular arta crooked around
his neck and held 'din half stifl.d
while another hand snatched away
his gun, As suddenly as It had fats
len upon him the cape was pulled
away, He whirled in convulsive ter-
ror to see the satne velvet tight
around the lithe body of the red-
headed Caballero Rojo.
"Back into the house," El Cab-
allero Rojo commanded Bartle,

"Movc1 We'll find out what that
shooting i heard was about."
"It was a fair fight" Bartle
screamed. "He fired—"
"So will 1, if you don't start for
that house."
A canny look caste into Bartle's
eyes as hope kindled.
"The girl's gone for Sheriff Landel
You're risking your life here."
The man in the scarlet mask mer-,
ely shrugged, "The sheriff might
conte," he said, "If you're not a
liar, But 1 doubt if he'll have mucic
to do after I leave here. Get going,"
Inside the kitchen, the first thing
Michael Valdez saw was the bleed-
ing man on the floor, and his eyes
above the scarlet neckerchief be-
came slits of venom,
"Fair fight," he squeezed between
his teeth. "You, a Westerner who
cut his teeth on the butt of an old
Colt, And probably the one this
Easterner shot with was his first
six•gun,"
He prodded Bartle with his own
gun.
e *
"He's still breathing," he growled,
"Bring hits out of that sleep,
Pronto! I want a witness to what
I'm going to say."
Bartle started for the water
bucket, hands trembling, knees
weak,
"That medicine chest in the wall,"
snapped the man in the caballero
clothing.
The landowner dazedly swung
open the small door. IVIty, he
thought furiously, didn't \Veber
come? Or the sheriff? Why didn't
somebody come?
Michael Valdez nudged Bartle's
thigh. with a boot as the banker
bent over the wounded man with a
medicine bottle. Maxon gave no
sign of returning consciousness,
"Get up, Bartle!" the red -masked
man growled, "I hate to leave the
boy that way, but this place is not
the healthiest resort I know of—for
rage,"
The landowner wandered if now
by some miracle he was to gain a
respite.
* * *
El Caballero Rojo's voice seemed
to have lost its sting. He got up,
hoping — until a heavy ledger was
slammed on the table, He watched
with popping eyes as papers follow-
ed the book and his own six-gun
served as a paper weight.
El Caballero Rojo opened the
ledger, His finger touched the entry
that read:
Steve Ransom — deceased.
He glared at Bartle over his mask.
"Well?" he' demanded.
"Beefnen kilted Stever" Bartle
jittered, "His wife sold me the
place after that. There's nothing
wrong in—"
'The Aldntan boy on Don Attero's
Cross. His father dead beside the
burning shed,,, Beefinen did that?"
His eyes, fiery above the scarlet
silk, bored into Bartle's like gim-
lets, Then with a motion both
smooth and swift, his hands shift-
ed. A horseshoe clanged on the zinc -
topped table, His jaws were rigid-
ly set.
"Yours?"
"No 1"
"You're a liar!"
"That shoe was never—"
* * *
"Made to hang on the hori-
zontal beast of Don Attero's Cross,
ch? As tobacco stalk hung with
young Sang Aldman? Maybe not.
But there' is where it will hang.
With you taking that boy's place!"
Bartle's blood froze. His face
was paper -white.
"You wouldn't kill an innocent
man?" he cried, "You can't prove
anything against me, You—"
"Prove, eh?" The masked man's
short laugh was not pleasant, "I
need no more proof than I already
have. Legal proof means notating
to a man outside the law, I am out-
side the law—and you put me
there!"
Russ Bartle looked up, startled.
This fellow, he thought must be
mad,
"I put you there!" he stammered.

Can Start Rain
Or Stop It!
One of the many "rain -makers",
amateur and professional, scattered
throughout , the world Is Donald
Johnston of Regina, Sask. But he's
different from most of the others be-
cause he claims itis "universcope"
will not only produce rain. If neces-
sary he can put it into reverse, and
prevent a rainfall which might t•e un-
welcome.
Wide-eyed natives witnessed the
seeming proof of his large claim—
he threw the universcope into reverse
to check a cloudy threat of raining
out a Royal Canadian Mounted Police
band concert. It didn't rain.
Coincidences—if coincidences they
are—have been startling in latest tests
of the instrument.
Seven out of eight tinges on which
Johnston Inas used his electro -mag•
nctic device on the IIat'p bulging
cumulus clouds, it has rained, \Vhen
he refrained it didn't.
The c o n c c r t over, he went
back to work att. .in and, "p.r t•.,' it
rained later.

Golden Text:—Thy people shall be

Ruth 1:10.
l'he history of the period of the
Judges in Israel is one of repeated
backsliding followed by oppression
from ncighbonring peoples, Then
the people in their sorry plight
would call on God and I!c would
raise up a deliverer who would
lead Israel to victory and become
their judge, After a time they would
forget God's goodness and again
revert to the sins of their neigh-
bours,
The story of Ruth is a most de-
lightful episode, But in to -day's
lesson our attention is focussed ml
Ruth's mother-in-law, Naomi, She
with her two sons had Icft Bethle-
hem -Judah in a time of famine and
gone to the land of Moab, The
sons married two young twoiit:nl oI

Ruth insisted on arcontpanying her,
saying: "intrcat me not to Ieavd
thee, or to return from following
after thee: for whither thou goest, 1
will go: and where thou lodgest, 1
will lodge: thy people shall be my
people, and thy God my God,"
Naomi arrived home disappointed.
To her friends she said, "Call inc

the goodness of God soon became
manifest, Ruth, gleaning in the
fields of Boaz, a kinsman of Naomi,

King David. Jesus, too was a des-
cendant of this young woman front

Naomi's complaint was gone and

It scents as if the old motto might
very well be changed to read
"Eternal vigilance is the price of -
healthy tomatoes," For there is no
doubt about it, in many sections of
the country tomato diseases are be•
coming more serious every year.
So be sure and dust your tomat-
oes every tot days from the time the
first cluster of fruits is half devel-
oped, Use fermate, or a mixed dust
containing fermate - alternating
with a fixed copper dust. Both these
are available under different trade
names, The fermate controls the an-
thacnose disease which causes the
rotting of tomatoes after and some-
times even before picking, The cop-
per, dust controls leaf diseases.

Even in seasons when other flow-
ers look weary and beaten, these

that they must have a particular

August is a good time to sow the
lupin seeds, which should be soaked

Gwen-dol1,1.e P. Clsi,ltie
This morning, when I first awak•
encd, the air was delightfully fresh
and cool, and through the 'open
windows and doors, wafted along
by a light breeze, cane the first
sweet smell of new mown hay.
There is nothing quite like it.
Hay that has been cut two or three
days and properly cured has a dif-
ferent smell -hot and dry, if you
know what 1 mean. I can quite un-
derstand what it would do to hay
fever victims.
Sometimes 1 wonder, apart from
the smell, why it is that haymaking
always appeals to the imagination
of those who think wishfully of
holidaying on a farm, Apparently
it has some sort of romantic appeal,
Children will stay around all day in
a hot, shadcicss field ,while load al-
ter load is being built, and for the
sole purpose of riding home on top
of each load as it conies to the
beim. Men, who hardly know a
pitchfork from a table fork are yet
willing to "lend a hand with the
hay", - For .a man to- stay on a
farts and afterwards confess he
didn't assist with the haying is

ing. home without going fishing. 1
don't know about women farm visi-
tors ... 1 gutss most of them are
content with the smell of the hay,
and the fact of being where it is.
« « «
And what dots haying mean to
the farm people themselves? For
the men it is a period of hard, hot
work, nervous strain and a stern
game of guessing -guessing what
the weather will be forty-eight
hours froin the time of cutting; try-
ing tp figure out whether it would
be better to coil the hay, or to rush
things, loading straight from the
swath to the wagon and thus

cheat that threatening storm. Or
would it be wise to invest in a hay
loader, a buckrake or a bailing
machine?
And the women , .'. ah yes, the
women! I -low they wish that haying
did not coincide with canning and
berry picking time• Maybe a crate
of berries waits to be canned but
there are also horses to drive on the
hayfork -and the wagon has a way
of coining in just as the fruit is
ready for the jars, And oh any, it's
hot, dusty work1 'l'hc rope drags
along the ground and by the time
the load is off the farmer's wife -
or daughter, as the case may bc,
feels more like taking a bath than
going on with her canning. Except
that there is never time , .. taking
a bath between loads might lead
to .an embarrassing situation. But
going out to the field with the wag -
.on -now that's something else
again. Don't ever be sorry for any
woman you sec out on a hay wagon
-not if she has a working partner
who_ doesn't rush things. Building
a load doesn't require a lot of
strength; it is knowing how to place
each forkful as it conies that does
the trick. And as the load gets high-
er and the wind blows through your
hair, for some unknoWn reason a
sense of satisfaction possesses you
and you feel, not only on top of
the load but on top of the world.
But hang on to that fork -brace
yourself against any sudden move•
ment of the wagon or the chances
are you will be out of this 'World
in a hurry. Regretfully I realize
my wagon days arc over, Not but
what I could still build a load -the
trouble would be getting off it.
The best I can do now is sit at
my pantry window and watch the
loads go by.

One Thing Lacking
Two chorus girls were talking
things over in the dressing -room
just before the show started.
"Whadda you think," boasted Tes-
sie. "Last night 1 could have near-
ried a swell guy with fifty thousand
dollars,"
"Well then," asked Bessie, "why
didn't you?"
"Gee," said Tessie, "where would
I get fifty thousand bucks?"

RESULTS
WHAT IS CERTO?
Why does Certo give you so
much mote jam and jelly? And
why do Certo jams and jellies
look better ... taste better?
It's all quite simple. Certo is
nothing but "fruit pectin" - the
natural substance in fruit that
makes jams "jam" and jellies
"jell". It's extracted and refined
to help you make better jams
and jellies more easily and
quickly,
THE CERTO SHORT BOIL
With Certo you don't have to
boil and boil and boll your fruit
to make it set. A one-to-hvo-
minute full, rolling boil Is
enough for jams ... a hall -
minute -to -a -minute for jellies.
ARE SURE!
CERTO DOES THIS
1 (lives you 50% more jam or
jelly because you save all the
precious fruit juice that wastes
away in steam in long boiling.
2 Cuts to a fraction the time
spent over the. stove.
3 Retains the lovely, natural
fresh -fruit taste and colour.
That's still, more important be-
cause with Certo you use fruit
at its peak of flavor and colour
not the under -ripe fruit used
in long -boil recipes.
SUCCESS SURE -
EVEN FOR BEGINNERS
However inexperienced you may
be, you'll have no failures if you
follow exactly the recipes pro-
vided with Certo, Different
fruits need different handling,
There's a separate kitchen -
tested recipe for each one,
A Product of General Foods
A pound of jam or lolly mode with Certo tomato* no more sugar than
a pound made the old tong•botl way,

`S products are desired and purchased by people all over the
world and the capacity to produce such goods largely determines the economic
welfare of every man, woman and child within her borders, Because the sale of
every article produced in Ontario brings valuable dollars into this Province, we
all are more assured of jolt security .. and we and our children can have more
t " the better things in life. '1'o produce suchoods in sufficient quantities, skilled
labour is vital. That is why every single one of Fhuuld lie glad that war veterans
are constantly, !icing trained to provide the skilled hands so needed by industry.
Veterans receive ON 'I'II E JOI1 training under expert instructors in our Ontario
factori••9.
This trail:ail, provided through the co-operation of the Department of Veterans'
Affairs, the :1'•leral Department of Labour and the Ontario Department of
Education, starts veterans off on the road to skilled craftsmanship, Taught to
use their (hands in genur tl acro engine, and airframe work, both on military and
civilian aircraft, these veterans may qualify for a Department of Transport license,
authorizing them to declare aircraft airworthy. In aircraft manufacturing plants
and on flying fields throughout Ontario, these newly -skilled veterans will have
the opportunity to a11sly their talents and training. Their efforts will help to
make Ontario a finer place in ubich to live and will contribute to the welfare and
happiness of all her citizens.

Of Fear
By
FERN AUtZiM
Eddie Ritchcr closed the hospital
door gently. Ile stood outside for
a moment, his eyes narrowed
thoughtfully. Inside, his wife lay
quietly, a gentle smile curving her
lips as she held Eddie's promise to
her heart.
Don't yuu worry your pretty little
head about anything, Mary," he had
told her, his eyes earnest and lov-
ing.
owing• "Everything's going to be all
right. I've got the promise of a
fine new job and the won't have to
worry about bills or expenses or
anything from now on."
Eddie Richter, one-time money
rider. Even yet, jockeys throughout
the racing world talked of him with
more than a little awe. Ile was a
sort of shining star toward which
silk -clad figures, up for the first time
in a classic of sleek horseflesh,
groped for inspiration. For Eddie
Richter had been an inspired rider.
That is, until the day he was up
on Gallowing Wind, the great chest-
nut mare that had startled the en-
tire racing world with her amazing
bursts of speed,
On the day in question, he looked
at the track nervously. It had
drizzled all night and the course was
a sea of mud. The horses were
brought to the barrier, and Eddie
leaned over Galloping► Wind's neck
and spoke to her reassuringly. She
tossed her head and reared. The
horses broke raggedly and Gallop.
Ing Wind, on the outside, ran last.
At the three-quarter post, Eddie
leaned over and said coaxingly,
"Come onr girl, +sow's the time,
You can do it. Why, the rest pt
those bangtails can't touch you for
speed. Come on, now, let's show
'em."
B•hind the love in her eyes there
was worry, too,
Galloping' Wind lengthened her
stride in response to the appeal in
Eddit's voice. She moved up, mak-
ing her bid• And then, with victory
within grasp, Galloping Wind
stumbled and went down with
Eddie under her.
When they got him out, the Doc
shook his head as he went over
Eddie's body with knowing fingers.
"1 don't know," he said doubtfully,
"he's pretty much bunged up. We
can tell more after we get him to
the hospital and have X-rays
taken."
He lay there four months, his
broken body an intolerable agony.
The pain wouldn't have been so
bad, if he could have gotten the
picture out of his mind of lying
under Galloping Wind, the thunder
of flying hoofs corning toward him,
Something had gone out of Eddie
then and been replaced by fear.
When he came out of the hospital,
he and Mary faced the fact that
their savings were gone. Things got
steadily worse, Eddie didn't know
anything but horses and horse
racing and he couldn't endure the
sight of a horse.
Finally, matters caste to a climax
when Mary had to be rushed to the
hospital for an emergency opera-
tion. She came through all right.
but behind the love in her eyes
there was worry too.
As he stood outside the door,
Eddie carte to his decision. 1 -Ie left
the hospital and turned toward the
track and to George Graybar, Gray-
bar,
raybar, fabul..sly wealthy sportsman,
owner of the Graybar stables from
which had come Shooting Comet,
Whirlwind, Highpockets and a host
of other famous horses—and Gallop-
ing Wind.
Something in Eddie's face brought
a welcoming smile from Graybar.
"Well, it's about time, Eddie," he
boomed. "1 wondered how long it
would be before you'd be around to
see me."
They walked out to the stables,
to the smell of clean hay and the
nickering cif tag 1,lQfse1 14 thgir
rtalls, Wh 'n they i<Mt% to theTas't
stall, there was Galloping Wind.
The great horse stretched out her
neck and nuzzled softly, Eddie
swallowed the lump in his throat as
he turned to Graybar who was
watching them.
"She remembers mei" Eddie's
eyes were shining. "Whin can 1
ride her, sir?" There was a great
excitement in his eyes.

Part of "Plant" Which Produces 120,000 Dressed Fowl Yearly—Brains and originality—plus a
lot of hard work—can still pay off in a big way, as is evidenced by the success of N. \V, White
of Seaforth, Ont, Still in his early 30's he has built up a poultry business that would be Itai'd to
match either in Canada or the United States. Poultrymen come to Seaforth from near and far
.to inspect the White plant, the chief feature of which is this brooder house, four stories high
and almost 100 yards long. Built two years ago it incorporates an original feed system of Mr.
White's own design—one which saves him a large proportion of the labor troubles which plague
most poultrymen. Among the many other unique features of the building are a complete modern
apartment to house the "staff" which at present consists of two students from the O.A.C,—third-
year men in animal husbandry—there both to earn and to learn.

When it comes to putting away
milk products we Canadians have
quite an edge on the Australians,
We also top theta at consuming
poultry, eggs, fish and game, to-
fnatoes atia citrus fruits.
But the Aussies are far ahead in
their consumption of sugar and
syrups, fruits—other than toma-
toes and citrus—and most sorts of
vegetables except the leafy varie-
ties.
As to meat, there's really no
comparison. Our 19.47 consumption
of 123 pounds per capita looks
rather small as compared to the
Australian mark of 211 pounds a
head. Onr 40 pounds per capita of
pork and pork products was al-
most double theirs — but "Down
Under" they got away with 71.5
pounds of mutton and lamb as
compared to a mere 4.6 pounds
here,

The extension of rural electri;
fication in Canada during the past
few years is almost incredible. Lat-
est reports show some 185,000
rural customers of electrical power
lines in this country—an increase
of over 120,000 since the end of
the war.

luene sulfonilidc; but dealers in
farm chemicals and fertilizers will
no doubt sell it to you under some
name far Tess jaw -breaking than
that, * * *
In tests this spring this chemical
is said to have given excellent re-
sults in treating seed of spring
wheat, oats, barley, rye and flax,
It can be used either wet or dry
with equally good results. As with
other seed disinfectants it does not
control looses ut in wheat, for
which the experts recommend
purchasing the new disease-free
seed plus proper crop rotation; but
it has proved highly effective for
stinking smut and bunt,
* '* *
Poultrymen who have been de-
pending on the time-consuming
methods of dipping or dusting to
rid their chickens of mites and lice
now have a much easier way of
doing this—by spraying.
Three years ago an Illinois
specialist sprayed a mite -infected
brooder house with a five per cent
solution of DDT, The young chicks
which were later placed in that
house grew up without ever having
even a bowing acquaintance with a
mite or loose.
Since that time this man has
sprayed many brooder and laying
houses in the sante manner, In
every case the mites soon disap-
peared. When he sprayed the litter
thoroughly, as well as the hoose,
even the lice present on the chick-
ens disappeared.
* * *
For those who do a bit of car-
pentry at home, here's a hint which
might be useful. With the passage
of time the figures and markings
on steel squares or rulers tend to
become unreadable, if you have one
of these just paint the entire square
or rule with quick drying white
enamel or aluminum paint—then
immediately, with a dry cloth,
wipe away the excess enamel or
paint, '!'hen let it dry, and your
markings and figures will he read-
able as ever.
* * *
Now is the season when work-
ing farm horses must be care-
fully watched for signs of over-
heating, Most of such trouble
conies on a uui;*gy, cloudy clay
when there is little air ntovenient.
Watch how hard the horse is
breathing, and give it rest periods
often. Animals that do not sweat
should be watched too, because
these are the ones that most often
go out with heat prostration.
'I'reatnient of animals suffering
heat prostration is difficult. Most
of them die, no matter what you
do; and those which recover are
seldom much gond for work.
* * *
Collar sores on work horses
should be washed and kept clean,
but it isn't advisable to use disin-
fectants, according to a well-
known vetinary authority, A quart
of water with a teaspoonful of
salt in it, or the sante amount of
water with two tablespoons of
soda is good for washing such
wounds. Most mild lotions or oint-
nients have a tendency to help the
wound heal—always provided you
can keep the collar off the animal
for a few days, not otherwise,
* * *
Then there's 'd one about
the hired man who was complain-
ing about the stinginess of the
wife of the farmer he was working
for. "I was sittin' there eatin' my
breakfast, and all of a sudden' site
says to mc, 'Jabez, do you know
how many griddle - cakes you've
just et?? I told her No, that 1
never bothered to keep count of
matters such as that. 'Well, I
can tell you,' site says. 'It's just
exactly twenty nine.' And do you
know, it made me so darned mild
that I got up and walked away from
the table without even finishing sty,
breakfast.',
Socialism (?)
The \Valcswood Colliery iii Brit-
ain is providing a most embarrass•
ing test case for British Socialism,
It is a relatively unimportant unit
in the British coal -mining industry.
It is one of those pits which have
become unprofitable to work, and
the National Coal Board proposes
to close it as no longer economic,
The \Valeswood miners, however,
object. They don't want to work
elsewhere, They have their homes
in the vicinity and they object to
being moved. Surely, they say, a
Socialist government is not going
to put the profit motive before that
of Manan rights.

Y
Floods May Prove Future Blessing
After monopolizing public atten•
ion for over a month, those floods
out on the Prairies have passed from
the front pages of most newspap-
ers, They are remembered only for
the tremendous damage they did to
land, roads, and western crop rms.
pects. Put right now the soil ex•
perts arc balancing up the damage
done against some of the things
on the credit side of the ledger. And
these are important too—how int
portant nobodl can really say at
present.
People who believe in weather
cycles, which is practically every
body in the West,- have their fing
ers crossed—writes James Il, Gray
in the Vancouver Daily Province.
Recalling the dust bowl conditions
of a decade ago, they have been
wondering if we are 1101 due for
some more of the same.
* *
11 could be, but many people are
now taking the line that the floods
have filled the subsoil +valet stor
age system to an extent that will
enable crops to withstand serious
drouth. Certainly the floods have
changed the face of the Western
prairie.
Lakes that once carried water
traffic and then dried up oto dry
marsh or wild flats are lakes again
Marshland that dried up ata) he
carne wheat farms is now back un•
der water and will likely stay that
way. Farmers of such land are out
of business.
The vast expanse of unbroken
prairie, so familiar to air travel dur
ing the war, is now a land dotted
with brininiing creeks and rivers
and thousands of minature lakes in
the corners of farriers' fields. All
this will be reflected in less land
sown to wheat and more to oats
and barley,
More important, however, than
the water that lies on the ground
is the water that has soaked deep
into the earth. The crowning dis-
aster of the dost -bowl years was
when the farm wells dried up. Life
without water became impossible
for man and beast. These wells
draw the water from surrounding
porous soil or gravel beds. When
this underground store Is depleted,
it can be replenished, d ring the
Suninmer, only by heavy rainfall,
If, 'as now, the underground stor-
age is full, rain docs not have to
fall to save livestock and farm fain
ilies.
There is, of course, a contrary
school of thought that regards the
subsoil water levels as tnconse'
quential. They argue that it doesn't
matter how much inter flier( is
in the soil, if the licit winds start tc
blow across the plains again It
may be, that these two schools 01
thought will be tested this year
Aftcr a cold and backward Spring,
it turned hot in Manitoba and one
day broke an all-time record whc"

and many a set of fingers Were
crossed.
Aside from this argument alto•
gether, the floods hate taught hund'
reds of districts in the three Prov'
inces some elemental lessons cit soil

Young Canadian's
Television Set
Puzzles Experts
There's a young man living in
Cedar Springs, Ontario—a little
place not far from Chatham—who
has the television experts frankly
puzzled- They say that—in theory
—what he's doing is absolutely int-
possible.
nnppossible. Yet scores of ,his towns-
folk will gladly give evidence that
he's doing it, not just once 111 a
While, not just under certain con-
ditions, but consistently.
Itis name is Fred Pardo. 1[e is a
former Royal Canadian Air Force
radar instructor, And what he has
done is construct, just as a hobby, a
television set that has almost four
tildes as gnat a range as what was
fornierly thought to 11c the c'.trt'mc
limit.
Ever since television was first
talked about we have been told that
It was a strictly "line -of -sight" prop-
osition, Until c the sound waves
which make radio possible, tele-
vision rays travel 111 a line as
straight as a ruler, and the curv-
ature of the earth is the limiting
factor, and does it with real power
and clarity too.
Up to now television engineers
have agreed that the really effective
range is not much more than from
thirty to fifty miles, But Fred
Pardo's home-made contraption
brings in 'Toledo, Buffalo and
Cleveland and has a range of 190
miles,
't'ry'ing to explain Pardo's success,
some experts point out that when
certain "freak" conditions exist—
suck as very low-lying clouds over
a body of water—television waves
sometimes skip. between the clouds
and the water, carrying much great-
er distance than is normal, But
Pardo's set brings in the three -
above -mentioned stations whether
It is clear or cloudy over the lake,
just (tow sloes he (lo it? When
asked for his explanation Pardo
just smiled and answered "maybe
the experts could be wrong"
According to his mother Fred has
been interested in radio and things
of that sort ever since he was able
to walk—and Fred points out that
amateurs and "hams" have always
contributed more to the advance -
meta of radio than the professionals,
He thinks the sante thing could very
well happen in television,
SPORT
A SiXBITC'l IC
A few enthusiasts, down in the
United States, are trying to take the
curse off a noble game calle(t Polo
—said curse being a word which
begins with "S" and ends with "Y",
and if you fill It is as either "so -
del)." or "snobbery" you won't be
very far astray.
Leading this movement to sell
Polo to the general public is Tommy
Hitchcock—for our money, the
greatest poloist who ever lived, al-
though we thrust admit that we nev-
er sate, itt action, the gentleman
who won the game in the last fifteen
seconds, in spite of a busted collar-
bone, in Kipling s unforgettable
tale entitled "'i'hc Maltese Cat."
* * *
Maybe that gent could have top-
ped Hitchcock, although some-
how or other we greatly doubt it,
And Tommy, in addition to his
mallet -wielding ability, will always
stand out in our mind for a very
frank and forthright saying,
It is a saying which, somehow or
other, always conies to mind when,
for instance, some hank-and-egger
at one of those presidential nom-
inating sessions begins sounding off
about how, in the United States,
the son of the pauper and the son
of the rich have absolutely equal
chances of success.
When asked, some years ago,
what was the most essential factor
toward becoming a great poloist,
Mr. Hitchcock failed to stress the
necessity of dogged determination,
constant training, keeping in con-
dition and going to church on Sun-
day. I -Ie merely replied, "You've got
to pick out a father who is rich and
nuts about polo."
* * *
But 6ttagttl:rt it Is probably the
ntost thrilling and action -packed
game in existence. Comparatively
few people have ever witnessed a
polo match. That is because the
"high society" angle has always
overshadowed everything else, and
folks who actually paid for tickets
have been looked down upon by the
front -pew holders, who get in on the
cuff.
* * *
Anyway, Hitchcock and some
fellow -enthusiasts are trying to
nuke folks feel that they're wel-
come, whether they have that Ox-
ford accent and know how to crook
the pinky when taking tea or not,
They're attempting—by making
polo potties available to those who
tftnnot afford to own a string—to
get, more people to play it. And al-
though the odds are against it, we
wish them all kinds of success. \Ve
vrotldn't go across the street to see
the average professional baseball,
hockey or basketball game. But
ue'd crawl on our hands and, knees
for ten blocks in order to enjoy
a really hard-fought polo match.

He Has the Television Experts Badly Puzzled—This exclusive picture, taken especially tor rtad•
ers of these pages, shows Fred Pardo, a young chap who lives in Cedar Springs, Ont., tinker-
ing with a home-made television set which upsets all the theories. Up to now from thirty to fifty
miles was thought to be the extreme range of television, but Pardo's set brings in stations
almost 200 miles away. Elsewhere on this page there is an article telling more about this
young Canadian inventor,

1N THE
ifORL
NormanBlair
United States
With the signing of a new con-
tract between the United Mine
.Workers and the bituminous coal
operators, the threat of another
coal strike Is averted, which will be
welcome news to Canadians and
Americans as sell, With the in-
creases that were granted, coal
whiners' wages are topped only by
those of workers in the building
trades. But it is (lard to begrudge
them whatever they earn as theirs is,
to quote John L. Lewis, a "dirty
and dangerous occupation" — one
which most folks would shun even
at several times the rate of pay,
flow it will affect retail coal prices
is hard to say, In the past each im-
provement in wages and working
conditions has meant a tremendous
increase in output, If the sante
thing happens again possibly some
of the increased cost will be absorb-
ed instead of being passed on to the
consumer—possibly, but not very
probably,
France
Throughout France the feeling
scents to be growing that war may
break out at any ntglnent—a feeling
probably inspired by threatening
Russian behavior in Berlin. Nor
are the French people under any
illusions as to what will be the re-
sult as far as their country goes.
They realize that there is no mili-
tary force in Europe strong enough
to even slow down the Soviet war
machine, and that the Russians
could overrun France and push
right through to the English Chan-
nel with (hardly a pause. In Paris
people are saying "War will just'
mean two million Frenchmen exiled
to Siberia."
'(•Itis defeatist attitude is strength-
ened by reports that Conununists
working in French war plants are
resorting to sabotage. Officers in
charge of armored equipment say
that before putting newly arrived
tanks and military vehicles into op-
eration they first have to pull them
apart to look for suclt things as steel
shavings in the cylinders and bolts
in the crank cases,
Finland
Finland has just held its first
election itt over three years, The
big issue, naturally, was commun-
ism versus anti -communism, With
the shadow of Russia so close, and
with the Reds so strong within its
own borders, Finland has been fol-
lowing a policy of guarded friend-
liness toward the Soviet Union, but
has still managed to show a bit
more independence than is usual
for countries within the Russian
sphere of influence.
Last April, at Stalin's "request"
Finland signed a pact of mutual
assistance witlt the Soviet, which
many accepted as a sign that Russia
was about to take 'over.
But Finnish elections are about
the freest in Europe They have the
secret ballot attd before the voting
begins the chairman in each dis-
trict must turn the ballot -box up-
side down to prove that it Is empty.
And, unlike the single -party elec-
tions in other countries inside the
Soviet orbit, the voter had his
choice ,of half a dozen parties to
vote for.
The result of the balloting was a
real beating for the Reds—who
lost something like a quarter of the
forty-nine parliamentary seats they
formerly held, When the new Par-
liament meets, probably late in
July, the Agrarians will be the
strongest party; that is to say they
will be if—before that date—tile
Communists haven't made some
sudden move to take over by
force what they weren't able to win
by the ballot.
The latter is, of course, a real
possibility, as the Reds—both with-
in Finland and in Russia—arc not at
all pleased about hots the elections
went.
Yugoslavia
What appeared to be—on the
surface at least—a serious break
between the Kremlin and Marshal
Tito of Yugoslavia has had obser-
vers more than a little puzzled; al-
though, so rapidly do world
events shove nowadays, the situa-
tion may have clarified itself ere
these words reach print.
There are several theories as to q
what brought about the apparent
break. Otte is that Tito has been
getting too nationalistic and inde-
pendent to suit Stalin's taste, and
that the top brass in Russia has '
always disliked the thought that
Tito came to power "tinder his own
steam" rather than with their aid,
A 'second theory is that Yugosla-
via, for its recovery, needs manu-
factured goods which it cannot
possibly secure front Russia—and
that tine Kremlin fears that Tito
might turn to the western powers
rather than look ever eastward,
Then there are some who believe
that the attack on Tito is only part
of a general housecleaning by Mos-
cow—that the Kremlin feels that
Communist parties in several parts
of Eastern Europe ,have become
unreliable, and that it is time to
teach them a lesson in strict obed-
ience.
There are still other theories
about the mystery which need not
be mentioned here. As a matter of
fact, everybody — expert and
amateur observers alike — Is only
guessing, Back in 1939, speaking
about the policy of the Kremlin,
Winston Churchill said— "It Is a
riddle wrapped in mystery inside
an enigma," Now, nine years later,
that still seems to ba about the
best possible description of what
goes on within the Russian official
mind,
Only One Side
Of Story Wanted
The trouble with Tommy Doug-
las, Saskatchewan's CCF leader, is
that he only wants to see in print
news stories which he dictates, stor-
ies which are slanted in his favor.
If he secs a story he doesn't like
he regards it as a misrepresentation
—according to The Financial Post—
which goes on to say:
"It isn't just that these naive and
little -experienced people are ex-
cessively thin-skinned, This, confu-
sion of propaganda with fact, this
animosity against comment, this
impatience with varying views,
this desire t2 have only one ;,ode of
the story told before tte public are
characteristic of socialists every-
where.
"It is characteristic of the totali-
tarian mentality whether in Russia
or Germany or.anywhere else. It is
a characteristic well illustrated by
the British socialists who are con-
stantly raising their voices in sim-
ilar lamentations and going as far
as they think they can get away
with in harrassing those who be-
lieve that a fundamental of de-
mocracy is free speech; that a fun-
damental of good government is
candid continent about its activities.
"The Douglas squawk is interest-
ing only for what it reveals about
the Socialist mind,"
A
More Or Less
The mistress of the house, sit-
ting in the living roost after lunche.

ing sound coming from the kitchen,
"More dishes, Maggie, I suppose?"
she called to the staid.
"No nna'atlh," replied Maggie,
