Then she barked fiercely and seemed to face an invisible enemy, until I called ber off. Was this a ghost? I asked myself; if so, we must find evidence, I &larked the spot with a stick, brought a growling, suspicious Willie home for breakfast; then I took out two of her puppies tailed Winston and Wendy, and walked them to the same spot, It was a heavenly autumn morn- , tag. We were very happy, all three of us, until Winston and Wendy at full gallop, reached my stick. Then, in their effort to avoid some- , thing that I couldn't see, both pups fell over on their backs. When they regained their feet they sped back to my protective shadow where, like children, they remained until they had got over their fright. I have been back again since and with different dogs (perhaps Indeed, too often for the ghost's peace of mind), but the phenom- enon has not repeated itself. Look- ing back now, my impression is that our ghost was working with a scythe in the field, and may have been a farm labourer in his pre- vious existence, because the dogs seemed to be escaping from a semi- circular movement near the ground lather than from a threatening stick, I had a dog called Archie, a Springer, who went with me every- where; and sometimes we stayed at a lovely old country , house near Oswestry where my host had an Alsatian terrier called Tom. One morning we were breakfasting in a big -windowed room filledi with winter sunshine, and the dogs were lying on the hearthrug at the fire, They made a pretty picture and I happened to be watching them when a' door opened and both ani- mals turned their heads to see who had conte in, Then it closed again, as though a servant, had changed his mind and shut the door on the outside. Haunted Doorway; My glance returned to the dogs, but their eyes were following some- body walking slowly across the room, and their tails were wagging delightedly and thumping the floor, hen another door, at the opposite side of the room, opened and stayed open long enough for someone to pass through. When this door closed quietly, both dogs dropped their heads, closed their eyes, and re- sumed an interrupted nap in the warmth of the fire, 1-Iad I not seen the large 'old- hshioned door handle turn as the second door closed, the matter might not have stuck in my mind. sty host was deep in a newspaper, so I said nothing. What seemed like a manifestation might have been due to a draught of air. Outside there was wind as we walked through a lane, and the dogs scampered merrily. Then my host sald: "Look at Tom and Archie," They were standing quite still only a few yards away front us, looking upwards with tongues out and tails wagging; then Archie closed his eyes with pleasure, as spaniels do when their heads and velvety ears are caressed. For a moment both dogs stayed thus, greeting someone we could not see, Not until then had I the courage to tell my breakfast -room tale, but my host was not in the least sur- prised. "Oh, yes, we have a ghost around the place," he said, "I think k is a woman, a very nice ghost who loves dogs." Then he added in a matter-of-fact sort of way, "Thank goodness the dogs love her." "Sorry, I can't ask you to dinner, bfaw and Paw I'm only work - Ing here." •i. ,w.waaiti::i+tia There Wap A Little Boy -And He Had A Little Curl -The picture which little Iii ly Gilbert, 3, stares at is not one of those "art studies" of himself. It's a picture of his old man when he was at that particular stage of development. Mother and father reluctantly decided that Billy was old enough to have his locks clipped, From the look on the kid's face —right—one would imagine he wished they had conte to the decision long before, Pk011 /a STC 111 a recent roundup of what ]night happen in sports this coming yen we wrote something to the effect .-"when the real hockey—the play- offs—begin etc," An indignant read- er --all our readers seem to he either indignant or indifferent— takes us severely to task for what he considers a dirty and uncalled- for crack at his favorite sport. * * * "What do you mean" he writes --we take it that the writer is male, although no name was signed to the screed—" by insinuating that they don't play real hockey, as you call it, during the regular season? How would you like to go out there and get bruised and battered the way some of the boys do, playoffs or no playoffs:" * * * The answer to the second ques- tion is that we wouldn't want any part of it— not even if Old Father Time should start swinging his scythe in reverse and lop off a large pr*pbrtion of the years that have passed over our hoary head. The lads certainly take their share ,pf bruising and battering—Or too much of it, a lot of us 'think— and although they are well paid, probably earn every cent they get, in view of the wear and tear they must endure. * * * In this connection we can't help thinking of an article We read not not so long ago about the opera- tion of some of these fleets of big transport trucks, The owner of one such fleet took the view that a new Diesel truck has just so many thou- sand, 'or hundred thousand, miles of effective life in it. The quicker you get that mileage out of it, the sooner you get a return on your investment-- then go and shop for a new one, In other words his view- point was quite the opposite of that of a private car -owner, who wants his heap to last a reasonable length of time. * * * And it seems to us as though the modern type of hockey magnate looks at a player in a manner some- thing similar to the truck operator. There's only so many miles of fast dashes, quick stops, and so forth in the athletes carcase, and whether you get that mileage out in one sea- son or ten—well, what's the odds so long as the customers are happy and keep coming back for more, k * * This may be all right for the type of player they seem to be breeding nowadays in wholesale quantities— the 180 to 200 pounders with enough natural padding on their bones to withstand countless crashes into the dasher or onti the ice. But it's hard on the less rugged boys—the Max Bentley kind, to name one—many of whom show signs of wear and tear from .overwork .long .before .they would .have ,done ,in days when trickiness and clever stick handling were definite assets, , . . , , .. , , . * * * Of course we know quite well that such gripes are just a sign that old age is creeping up on us, and that we haven't kept pace with latest developments In the game. Well— so be it At all events we have, on our side, one of Canada's most emin- ent writers, Mr, Morley Callaghan, who just a few days ago gave vent to some words on hockey as she Is presenly played. * * * "I loath the modern hockey rules," quoth Mr, Callaghan, who evidently hasn't heard that voicing such opinions in the fair city of Toronto is about the sante as calling Joe Stalin a schmoe in the shadow of the Kremlin. "They're playing scramble -ball. We have lost the beautiful pattern passing plays We knew in the days of the old St. Patrlcks. he plays were etched s') IC skilfully by those old masters of the art of stickhandling it was something akin to a great Canadian ballet on ice. If we had those old rules, the kids would definitely go for them," * * * With a tip of the bonnet in the direction of Mr, Callaghan for say- ing it so mach better than we could ever hope to do, we pass back to the first query of our anonymous correspondent, "What do we mean by insinuating that they don't play real hockey during the regular season." * * * Well, just possibly that was stat• ing the matter somewhat harshly. Still—this being Monday -we pick up a paper and take a look at what happened in the National Hockey League over the weekend, There were five games 'played on the Saturday and Sunday evenings, And of those_ five, just sixty per cent—three to be precise—ended in a draw, Nor was there any mention of overtime being played, * *}. , * That means that the players— avidly keen to win and almost breaking their hearts over a defeat, so we are given -to understand by the busy press agents—were quite satisfied to settle for a draw, And the customers—who back a few years ago believed that their ad- mission fee entitjle`d them to a game of hockey—were just as satisfied to settle for sixty minutes of entertain- ment. * * * That, in a nutshell, is what a lot of tis old fogies find wrong with hockey—and to a minor degrce-g- wrong with many other modern athletic pastimes. They have devel- opedinto entertainment rather than sport—and it's no wonder that more and more south of the border are becoming content to view games from a comfortable seat miles away, by leans of television instead ofthe ing there in person to root their heads off for some favorite, Fired from Job May Make Fortune A former French waiter, who lost his job in a Paris restuurant because his dress suit was badly stained, has applied for a patent ' for a combined cleaning and press- ing iron. The iron, very like the ordinary domestic article in shape, but slightly larger, and, of course, heated by electricity, not only damps the clothing, but sprays the cloth with a cleansing chemical, In the centre of the iron there is a row of powerful brushes which work on the surface of the cloth as the iron is propelled to and fro, Only the rear part of the iron contains the heating element, but the device enables a whole suit or dress to' be sponged,- brushed, cleaned and pressed in fifteen min- utes. The chemical cleaner dis- solves grease and removes all stains instantaneously, The inventor of the iron has refused a Large sum for his dis- covery, He plans to establish a factory for its manufacture, and is confident that it will have a world market, Adhesive tape for insulating elec- tric wire and adhesiv paper tape for gumming up envelopes and torn stationery have been in use for many years, but the metal worker and the manufacturer of ]petal goods has ,been looking for scientists for something that could be used to stick metals together without the trouble of welding. It has been left to an American scientist to produce the right idea, and the Alining and Manufacturing Co., of Minnesota, are now en- gaged in producing a transparent adhesive, like a roll of ordinary so that they will withstand a pres- tape, that will bind metals together sure of more than 3,000 Ib, per square inch. Before long, we may be seeing water and gas pipes, metal sheets, bicycles, motorcars, boilers, street lamps, and even 'rail- way carriages being repaired by a man -With a roll of adhesive tape in his pocket and a blow lamp in his hand to provide the heat to bind the broken m 'al.

ISSUE 4 1949 110V13 THIS—WHY YOU'VE DONE NOTHING AT ALL I By Margarita WELL T11A18 WHAT ID DO IF 1 HADA M1LLIAN Blind Advertisement By 1:141311F BELL PORTER The newspaper advertisement read: "WANTED: Sober, reliable man to take complete charge of ad- 'ettising department of* large firm. Must be able to assume full re- sponsibility. College -trained men only need apply," Ted Shane read it over toast and eggs. "Mona!" he exclaimed, "Lis- ten ... this is what I've been look- ing ook- ing for , . ," "Yes, it does sound good," agreed Mona, over his shoulder, Ted reflected. "It isn't that old Todd is a bad sort .. , it's just that he doesn't scent to want to give me full rein, and you know I work better without so much supervision." Mona raised her hand in a dra- matic sweep, "Onward and upward, my lad , , Let's enter greener fields via this- ad , . , let Todd feed id business to the birds!" , Thirty minutes later Ted leaned back. "Read it to me, honey , let's hear how it sounds," "Dear Sir: If you are looking for a man with initiative, willingness to work and a capacity to handle your advertising, look no further. How- ever, I would have it understood from the 'beginning that 1 ant to have full charge and not be hinder- ed, swayed or crippled by any supervisor, helper or owner, I am at present employed but unfortun- ately my present employer is afraid to trust me to stand on my own feet, in fact, I do not believe" he fully trusts his own feet. I know . what I can do and all I ask is a chance to prove it. Respectfully, Theodore Shane." Mona's eyes glowed, "Oh, Ted, that is a good letter, but is that part bad about your boss not trust - Ing you?" Ted's jaw set, "All my cards are on the table, honey . , , slight as well Flet hint know where I stand right from the beginning." Kissing Mona goodby, Ted whis- pered, "Keep your fingers crossed for luck, sweet." At four o'clock that afternoon the buzzer on Ted's desk impati- ently summoned hint into the in- ner sanctutit of the Big Boss—J, Anthony Todd, himself. That Illus- trious individual sat'stiffly erect, his ,halo of steel gray hair. bristling excitingly, "Sit down! Shand" he thundered; "Sit down, I want to 'talk with you about that Finkle advertising deal. Just how would you handle it?" Ted blinked in surprise. "\Vhy, sir, I would channel it through the mediums of the small retailer for there's not enough valuate to inter- est the large concerns." The owner of Todd and Todd nodded in agreement, "Right! That's just what I've been telling my part- ner should be done) Go ahead with "Thanks!" agreed Ted, "That should be quite a deal if handled properly." "By' the way," inquired Mr. Todd, his eyes twinkling, "just how would you handle the new plastic deal with the Denver people?" • Tcd outlined in enthusiastic detail the plans he had been longing to put into action. When he had finished, the' boss looked at hhn in astonishment. "My boy," he instructed, "Go right. ahead. Call me in for a conference only if you feel you need moral support." He shifted his weight and Ile ushered a dazed but happy Ted to the deer, smiled. "Come back tomorrow. We will draw up a new arrangement s well as full authority in' your de- partment." ' After he had ushered a dazed but hippy Ted to the door, the head of Todd and Todd drew a letter froth his desk. He chortled, "This is really good!" Adjusting his glasses he read: "My present employer is afraid to trust me to stand on my ,own feet, in fact I d� not believe he fully trusts his own feet." Putting the letter back, he smiled again. "I •guess young Shane will always wonder why he never re- ceived an answer to that letter.

Gradually he advanced until now, he could walk down stairs, TGOES ON 1N THE WOIILD Norman kw Great Britain The United Kingdom has had a little over six months experience with the new National Health Act —and opinions are sharply divided as to how it is working out. Although the expenditure for medical and dental services was budgeted at around 520 million dollars for the first nine months, it is freely admitted that the cost will be much more than that -- probably closer to 800 million, And out of this vast amount,. the British professional sten, who have to do the actual work, are complaining of getting an unfair cut, The doc- tors' first quarterly payment from the health service was disappoint- ingly low, and what is even more serious to then, is the loss of a high proportion of their private patients, who have gone over to the health scheme, But whatever the doctors and dentists may say the British popu- lation, in general, has accepted the Health Act with enthusiasm. With winter weathcLsetting in the doctors were ovcrwh,Rnted, . People with imaginary diseases as well as those with slight colds—for which in the past they wouldn't have troubled a doctor—flooded the offices. The stage and radio humorists are having a field day poking fun at the health Act. One popular bit of doggerel has a Verse which runs~ " Oh to be in England, Where pills arc running frce— I-Ielp yourself to wooden legs, Neer a penny fee." „ Nor are wooden legs the only things provided by the free service, Bald folks, bout trade and female, are getting wigs free of charge and the two dozen wigmakers engaged in. the health plan estimate that demands may reach as high as 100,000 such pate -coverings per year, At $40 apiece, the Government should have an annual bill of 8 million dollars—as each applicant gets a spare. Other articles in which the supply has not caught up with the demand include spectacles, false teeth, hearing aids, electric wheel chairs and trusses. The almost 9,000 dentists working in the plan are so busy that some have put out signs "No new patients for a year." Although there is some doubt as to witches. the Act actually contem- plated such supplies, people have been demanding — and getting— such things as headache remedies, simple laxatives and the like. Ohe woman got as many as 500 cascara tablets—acid a druggist tells of an- other who tried to get a free bottle of hair shampoo. Inspired both by dissatisfaction with present conditions, and fear of what the future may bring, angry doctors are making ati effort to rally support for a physicians' strike. As one medical man puts it, "The alternative to a Ministry refusal to give adequate living facilities to men who have spent a lot of time and expense in acquir- ing their skill seems to be a whole- sale resignation from the Health Plan and a return to private prac tice—or emigration." Meanwhile, the Health Plan speeds on its more or less mercy way. Italy Russian propagandists, for some time back, have been making great efforts to win the people of Italy over to the "beauties" of Commun- ism. • But the Kremlin variety of propaganda has been very clumsy indeed, and so far as can discerned, completely • unsuccessful with the rank and file of Italians, In Rothe there are 'at least three Russian. libraries, with still snore in other parts of the country. But all' the books and magazines are ht' the Russian language, and so un- intelligible to more than one or two per cent of the population. More than that, those using such libraries have their credentials scanned very carefully, with the result that very few people bother to use theist at all, Russian films, which are rented out on a connnercial basis, have had almost as little success. Most of then are in Russian, and on one occasion at least the Soviet repre- sentative in charge of the showing admitted that audience reactiotr— especiglly its the smaller places.— was downright hostile at. at best,, simply indifferent. Germany The worst season for fog and overcast skies in the Berlin district is around the end of December, and it is no secret that the onlook- ers In the Kremlin were expecting such conditions to cripple seriously the Allied air-lift or even, perhaps, wreck it altogether. But their hopes proved ground- less, Allied planes •somehow man- aged to keep Western' Berlin going and when, with the New Year, the annual fog season drew to a close, \Western air power stepped up its efforts against cold and hunger in the blockaded city. An allied pitot, early in January, flew into Berlin with the hundred - thousandth cargo for the city, while Allied oflicers in charge of .the operation were making plans to up the daily arrivals to an aver- age of 8000 tons—this being almost four tines the minimum subsist- ence level for the Western Berlin. The whole Air Lift business has been a truly remarkable achieve- meat—one that 'has probably done more to astound the Russians, and to put thein into a more receptive frame of mind toward settlement of the Berlin question than any- thing else' could possibly have done. British and American pilots, who made the operation .possible, deserve the th i 1 s of the whole world—and, more especially, the thanks of the people of Western Germany. But whether • they, will.

British government services have for so long enjoyed a reputation for high-calibre integrity that people are reluctant to believe the men who head them are susceptible to the blandishments of slick lobby- ists or string -pullers who peddle remunerative directorships, expen- sive gifts and lavish hospitality for "value received," The "value received" appears to have been favorable decisions made by Board of Trade officials, the wangling of special privileges and all the other under-the-table deals invariably associated with govern- ment graft. During the last war, there was remarkably little of this sort of thing uncovered in Britain; Canada and the United States; and there is every reason to believe that little of it went on. But it is perhaps not so surpris- ing, after the first shock wears off, to see it happening in postwar Bri- tain where, under a Socialist govern- ment, politicians and civil servants have retained wide arbitrary powers; where they can make or break, help or hurt businesses by their decision about the granting. or with- holding of a permit, the allocation of materials, and so on says The Financial Post. Socialism in postwar Britain, with its more stringent control, its super - regimentation (in qulntuplicate), its burdensome supervision from morn- ing to night, from cradle to grave, has created the atmosphere and attitude that may smother all public virtue,. Britons have been made into bootleggers, spivs and black tnarket- ers. Every new regulation has brought with it the search for a loophole; every new control is ac- companied by a platoon of "fixers" who know how (and the price) to get around it, Such regimentation invites corruption; some will always pay for .fast passage through the bogs .of officious officialdom. Canad;att and other visitors to Britain are almost always appalled at the extent to which influence and favoritism has become rampant. There is no reason at present to believe the current ingtfiry hu done more than lift the lid of the scandal yet to be uncovered, or will end the system that has allowed it to grow and flourish. Knew Better A woman leafing through Dorothy Parker's "Enough Rope," at the Public Library found this remark pencilled in a feminine hand under the crack about then seldom making passes at girls who wear glasses: "That's what SHE thinks!" receive the latter—that's quite an. other matter as the Western Ger- mans are apparently too -angry over what has happened in tiff; Ruhr to be grateful to anyone—even those who kept them from starvation. 1llAM FRONT J Good, news for a lot of fanners is found in a recent report that Red Clover sects production in Canada in 1948 was the biggest in at least 20 years. This record crop is largely attributed to production in Ontario where over seven million pounds were produced. The Dominion crop—around eleven and a half million pounds—is more than double that of 1947, * * * In normal tines Canada's sur- plus of Red Clover seed—recog- nized everywhere for its quality and hardiness—is exported to the United Kingdom and some Ve t- ern European countries. But import restrictions caused by exchange difficulties are likely to litnit such exports. So with plenty of top quality Red Clover seed available, at fair prices, many more farmers than have done so in the past should take advantage of the op- portunity to make greater use of this highly valuable legume crop. * * * So many people—both those al- ready on farins and also those who dream of retiring from city life and "Taking it easy"—think of going into poultry raising on a commer- cial scale, that perhaps a few hints from an acknowledged expert might not be out of the way. For while there's sioncy to be made in poultry, there's also a chance for severe loss, if gone into in a hap- hazard manner. * * ,* The proper place for locating a commercial poultry farts is near a medium or large city, where the products will be used. Markets should not be more than ten miles away at the outside, and roads should be good, * * * Electricity and a pressure water system are essential. Sandy soil, that is well drained, is most desir- able. The amount of land avail- able can vary from one to ten acres. * * * Chicks for future layers should be obtained from a reliable breed- er-hatchery—one that can supply disease-free stock front well-bred flocks, and, which you can depend on in the matter of filling orders on time, Naturally—as in other purchases—you should expect to pay a reasonable price for such chicks, and not ekpect to get them "at a bargain." * t * Unless you have plenty of both experience and capital, it Is best not to start on a full-scale pro- gram, but to begin moderately and build for the future, To be econ- omical, start with a flock of not less than 2d0 hens—which might go as high as 500 if you are sure you can handle such a number. * * * Breed or breeds? We11, that's pretty much up to the individual, but White Lcghorns, Rhode Island Reds, Austra-White and Red Leg - :toms are probably the most popu• lar, although many have had gund results front some of the cross- bred strains. Layers should be housed in one long house, either 20 or 24 feet in width. Each leg - horn hen should have 3 square feet of floor space—heavier hens three and a half square feet. * * * Layers should be confined to the house at all tines, and those with small acreages of land will also do well to raise their replacement pullets in confinement. Those with plenty of land will possibly allow their pullets to range from the time they are around two and it half months old until they start laying at 5 or 6 months. * * Because of over -enthusiasm a beginner at the business is quite likely to oberestimate his income and not take into consideration all costs, Anyone just starting uut would be well advised to pay a visit to some established producer and take notes under three head- ings fixed investments—operating costs—and income. From the very beginning stake out a budget and don't miss put- ting down a single item, but make it as complete as possible. "Fixed investment" should include land, buildings, equipment, stock on hand and feed on hand. Your "operating costs" should include feed, hired labor, building repairs, medicines and vaccines, equipment repairs, litter, water, electricity, egg ' casesalso taxes and interest on your investment. * * * Under "income" should be in- cluded sales of eggs, sales of cull. hens, fryers, feed. bags, manure— also whatever products you use in your own home. 'Such a budget, if properly started and kept strictly up to date, will give you a complete picture of the; operation -also ad4 very materially to your chances d success, In such an undertaking. * *- * Which should be about enough for one session—except to pan along the very ancient one about the city man who asked the farmer how far it•was to Oshawa. "Well, replied the farmer, "the way you're heading, I figure it would be around 24,992 utiles, But if you turn around, it's only about seven."

The plane site boards for San Francisco crashes In the fog and she is rescued by Art Carey, young lawyer who lives with his mother near the scene. Her fictitious name, honey Roe, Is die. covered by Art but he agrees to keep her secret. Ile takes her to a cemetery there she buries the diamond. Returning near San Francisco, at her request, and to the Carey house, Haney sees Joe Dan- burne's coupe panted in front el the house of a neighbor, Sirs. Rita. CHAPTER IX (Continued from last week) She nodded and turned back to her fishing. Maybe fate had led her to this place, she mused, to find Art. Perhaps he was the help she needed. If she were arrested, a good law- yer would be a necessity. • "Do we have to go over for din- ner at Mrs. Riba's?" she finally asked, hoping that he would answer In the negative. "i ala afraid so. Especially, since it is for you. Don't you want to go, Honey? She is a swell cook." "So soon?" He removed his pipe and knocked out the dead ashes, Then he refilled it. "You know, Honey, you are not the type of per- son to run from trouble. And what* ever is on your mind is sure get- ting the best of you." "How do yov know so much?" she demanded rather shortly, irri- tated that he could read her so well, "You haven't known me very long." There was a tinge of anger to her words. He kept on, ignoring her sharp thrust that he should be meddling in her affairs. "When you forget the boogie -bear now and then, your eyes dance with life and you smile and your hand is steady," he ex• plained effortlessly. "Then it creeps upon you, and fear lurks in your eyes and you are jumpy, as if you were dreadfully afraid of something -like a man who has been threat- ened with death and expects to be knifed in the back at any moment." She shuddered at how well he analyzed her case. "You sound like a doctor," she told him, auger leaving her, Then quite deliberately, she lifted her head and looked straight into his eyes. "I ant afraid, Art. Afraid t shall be killed by a man." "Killed?" The look he gave her at first was one of disbelief, Slowly, it gave way to a deeper feeling of horror as he realized that she spoke the truth. He was stirred as she thought he could not be. He opened mouth to speak, but before he could say anything, she implored: "Please don't say anything now, Art. Don't ask me questions,,, I can't talk, yet -and I don't want to lie to you." • "But, Honey, if you arc in great danger-" "Please, Art, let's not talk of it. I merely told you because you guessed so closely to the truth, But it is my battle for a little while longer, l don't want to bring grief to another."

Honey smiled with instant relief atyd sat down in the nearest chair. "She asked me again," remarked Mrs. Carey and she seemed a bit put out "if your first name was Honey and where you were from. I Blade up a town, my dear. She was very curious about getting your exact description." I-Ioney dropped her lashes over her eyes to hide what might be there and got' up and walked to the window, Joe must suspect front what little his sister had revealed to him, she thought quickly, other- wise, Mrs. Riba would not have been so precise with details. Art was saying to his mother: "Don't tell er anything. She is too snoopy to suit me." "I don't intend to," replied his mother and threw up her head, "She acted like she didn't believe me when I said I had known you a long time." Honey turned and smiled at her hostess and there was a wistfulness about her pretty mouth, "It doesn't matter, Mrs, Carey. I'm sorry to have bothered you, I am leaving tomorrow," "Oli, but my dear-" said Mrs. Carey hastily. "You• shouldn't, You must rest a bit amore." "Never mind, Ma," interrupted Art. "I'm driving her to Los Att- geles, myself. She has business there. Besides, I can see the city before 1 go back home." Honey's eyes thanked him si- lently. Mrs, Carey turned smilingly to- ward her kitchen. "Well, one person hasn't a chance in an argument against two." "Especially when one is a law- yer," Art added, grinning, and fol- lowed her out of the roost. Left alone for a few minutes, Honey was inclined to try to form- ulate some definite plans in her mind for her future course. But her thoughts kept reverting back to Joe, wondering if he would stake any moves to find out about the guest in the Carey household. • "I must leave very early in the morning," she decided. "Get away from here before he is up. I'll take my chances and try to see Dan as soon as I get there." \Vith dinner over, Honey found herself sitting in the living room, listening to a funny experience that Mrs. Carey was telling, about the time -she went to Europe, and site was laughing harder than Art, for her hostess was a good story -teller. Suddenly her laugh broke off in mid-air and she turned deathly pale, But she recovered herself so quickly that the spell was over be• fore either of her new friends de- tected it. She continued to smile, but her eyes v.atchcd the front win- dow from under lowered lashes and her hands were like chunks of ice in her lap. (Continued next week.) 18. Wild animal 18.

Barclay Warren Jesus and the Preparatory Ministry of John Matthew 3:4-17. • Golden Text: - Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. - Matt. 3:2. Before Jesus entered upon his ministry a great and picturesque man prepared his way. John, whose mother was a cousin of Mary, was a few months older than Jesus, Ile came into the region of the Jordon preaching and baptizing, He was unique. Clothed in cartel's hair, supported by a leather girdle, his focgl was wild honey and a species of insects similar to grasshoppers, Ile carte in the spirit and power of Elijah. Great throngs went out from Jer- usalem and the surrounding areas to hear hint. His preaching was as rugged as his appearance. "Repent ye, for the kingdom of heaven �s at hand,"the cried. Nor was he content with a forst of repentance, "Bring forth therefore fruits sleet for repentance," he demanded of the leading religionists of his day, warn• ing that the axe was standing by the tree in readiness to hew down that one that bore no fruit. Neither dare they take refuge in the fact that they were Abraham's +descen• dants for, said he, "God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham." John tvas a fearless preacher and he had results, Perhaps we of this day are too delicate, too careful not to offend, Imagine us saying "0 generation of snakes." The highlight of John's preach- ing was the announcement that a greater person was coaling; so great that John was not worthy to carry his shoes, He would baptize with the Holy Spirit. It was a memorable day when this great One, Jesus Christ, appeared where John was preaching. John at first declined to baptize Jesus for He had no sins to confess, However, je,u-' .Irlited it. The opened heavens and the descending Spirit confirmed to John that this wan, indeed, God's Son. A great tribute to tite effective- ness of John's ministry was elle fact that his otvn disciples 011 seeing • Jesus followed Him. Ile had suc- cessfully pointed out the Lamb of God. So should we he all our lives; not exalting self but lifting up Christ our Savior. Answer to This Week's Puzzle APT ''; ATLAS c;; a A B S©W".;MO/ RE If L ,, ; PA TNW L/ ST NOS 1.

"Fireside" is mien cosier. Of course, staying where It was warm and comfortable did not appeal to some of the young crowd, Including Bob. ale and another fellow were away to Toronto—and the wilder it got.the more I wished they were home, I listened to the warnings that were given over the dio and was talking it over with a neighbor on the phone when , blackout!—and of course, without warning, Away I went hunting for Matches, candles and a lamp. As 1 hunted I wondered if anything could be blacker than a black -out, It wouldn't have been so'dad if I could have rememberd where I had put the half-dozen candles that I bought for just .such an emergency, I re- member thinking—"Now I'll just put these where they'll be handy if we need them in a hurry!" I haven't found theta yet. , About 11:30 partner took the flashlight and went off to the barn— as Ile was a little anxious about one of the cows, So ut he went into the howling storm, Ten minutes, fifteen and twenty minutes passed, and I began to wonder if I ought to go and hunt Partner. Then 1 heard footsteps.

Of course we possess a ian- tern but Partner hadn't bothered to take 11. It would probably have blown out in the store anyway.

Or, at least, that's what the man said—and he forgot to add whether it was baked to eat, or to throw at somebody, ing to bed. Anyway I thought I had letter wait awhile because for the life of nuc I couldn't tell, with some of the lights, whether they were on or off, So I stretched out ori the chesterfield and—yes, you guessed it—I fell asie p, At 4:30 I awoke with a start , , . a light was shining right into any face, Another was burning full blast in the sitting - room; another in the pantry and the radio was having a, grand old time all to itself, 1 shut everything off and went to bed for A couple cf hours, "A Happy New Year," said. 1 to myself. "Happy New Year is right!" But still we have nothing to grumble about. In spite of all the dire w'cather reports and accounts of roads drifting badly, with people nlarooned'herc and there, rii;ht here we had no trouble at all. No drifts, no blocked lades or roads -cars still sifting along as if it were early in the fall, So there you are folks—if you arc tired of being snowed in, come in and live down on the high- way, '?'hat oust surely be the answer because on the cross-roads just a mile above tis, cars were abandoned and boys homeward bound from dances found themselves with quite a bit of walking to do.

Tests have proved that men and women have the same intelligence. False, Males are better in me- chanical, arithmetical and abstract reasoning problems; females, in language, rote, memory, social and esthetic tests, Because of these differences, it is not possible t0 com- pare the intelligence of the sexes in equal terms. Men are less emotional than women. 'Prue. Some 50 of the best recent psychological studies are almost un- animous in indicating less emotional balance in women, Men are less likely to be hys- terical than women, False, During the bombing of London there were more cases of hysteria among male civilians, and the recovery of men under treatment was less rapid than among women. Men sleep more soundly than women. False. Male infants are more restless in their sleep and don't sleep as long as girl infants, and this difference characterizes the sexes in maturity, Men are less intuitive, True. Girls from earliest ages are more observant and conscious of people than boys. As they grow older women develop the power. This is helped along by the need of mothers to understand their child- ren, sick people—and husbands. Men are less concerned with their appearance than wotnen, False, It is only in this country and in Europe, as a result of social changes in the last century, that men are restrained from showing too ouch interest in their dress. Among most of the world's population men are fully as vain and dress -conscious as women, and often spend more time and money on their appearance, It's Jai-Alai—One of the top players of the great Cuban game shows his form as he whips a return shot down court between his legs, The game. a speeded -up' handball, uses a ball called a pelota, and a rac- quet -like basket, strapped to the hand, and called a cesta.

The lion, he says, kills for food only and kills almost instantly, it being beneath Itis dignity to play with a victim. Having provided a meal, the lion' sounds a deep -chested call to a mate and waits for the latter to take the first bite. The rhinoceros, dull-witted, is likely to be the first of the great African mammals to become extinct, unless better protected by ,law, Siedentopf thinks. He also points out that the hippo, a5 stupid a8 the rhinoceros but of a sunnier disposi- tion, cannot be considered danger- ous, "So your name is Johnny Thomp- son," the teacher said. "But your mother's name is Jones?" "Yes, ma'am," Johnny said. "Yon see, she married again and I didn't." * TABLETALKS itr eineAndtiews Now I honestly thoug' t I knew about every way there is of cook- ing potatoes but a few days ago 1 ran into something new. Possibly it isn't a new way of cooking, but just a variation of an old style. Anyway, I'm passing it along, in case sonic of you haven't heard of it before, You just select smooth, medium- sized potatoes and pare a strip. about half an inch wide, around the largest circumference of each. Wash and boil in salted water until done. Cooked this way the "spuds" will be .mealy—never soggy—and very easy to peel before serving. If served as cooked the white in- teriors—(lulling like lacy vests be- tween the gaping edges of tile brown jackets—form a tempting sight indeed. 4 '?'his is the time of year when most families—the men folks es- pecially—really go for soups and broths of the "stick to the ribs" variety, Here are ;, ,-Duple that are guaranteed to till those "aching voids" satisfactorily. The first is Chowder, Country Style In 4 quarts of cold water soak, for 2 hours, / pound dried linea beans. Then add 2 small, fresh pork hocks 1 tablespoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper 1 bay leaf Simmer slowly for an hoar and a half, then add 1 large potato, diced 2 large carrots, (laced 1 large onion, diced 1 cup cabbage, cut in small pieces / cup tomatoes 1/2 cup cut green beans Cook for 30 minutes over a low heat, then serve piping hot with the pork cut from the hocks. * * # The other soup recipe will prob- ably appeal more strongly to those of you who do your cooking on coal or wood stoves—as the lengthy simmering might be a little long for homes that use gas or electricity. It's a Vegetable -Beef Soup For 'four hours—or until the neat is very tender, simmer in 3 quarts of water 1 Meaty soup bone (beef or knuckle of veal) Remove the soup bone. Cut the meat from the bone. Put part of meat into the broth, reserving the other part for hash or croquettes. Add to broth ami meat • 1 clip chopped onion 2 cups chopped celery 2 cups tomatoes 2 cups diced carrots 2 cups diced turnips Simmer until vegetables are ten- der, season to taste with salt and pepper, then yell "Soup's On' and sec all come a -running. + 4 Scenes as if that particular forms of dessert known as Upside-down Cake gets more and more popular. every day, so i don't suppose 'I need apologize for giving you still another recipe. This is Chocolate Upside Down Cabe 1 cup sifted flour 44 cup sugar 1„ tablespoons cocoa 2 tablespoons baking powder Sift all the above together, then add 2 tablespoons bunter or short- ening 34 cup chopped nuts 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Beat for 2 minutes, pour into well greased pan, then unix together and sprinkle over the batter, 1 cup sugar ?q cup cocoa Then—this is important—pour 1 cup of HOT water over the cake and hake fn moderate (35) oven for 35 minutes.

Break It Up Making a new pattern of behavior to break up the routine that makes smoking mechanical is one of several ways to stop smoking, C. Aubrey Hearn reports in "J•ournal of Living." A psychologist is said to have succeeded in throwing off the smok- ing habit in this way, He junked his old routine from scratch, getting up at a different time, eating a diffNent kind of breakfast and setting out on a new course to work, Now that it's all over, what did you really do yesterday that's worth mentioning?—Coleman Cox.
