C, \V'ILFORD,` lar sit THE UNITED STATES It is nothing new to have Russian Papers proclaiming that the United States is a nation of "war -mongers." But when, right in the Nation's Capital, the Washington Post pub- lished a strong attack against "War- mongering" it caused many Ameri- cans to stop and think seriously for a bit, "It would be hard to convince a foreigner reading the latest wave of publicity exploits by the air force that the United States is not hell- bent for war," says The Post, "First came the round -the -world flight of the 13-50 and attendant interpreta- tions of this country's ability to bomb any spot in the world. Then the story that the B-36 had flown 9,600 miles non-stop, carrying a bomb load 5,000 miles. Then the air force "finding" that Russia has no adequate defense against the B-36. Finally, there comes what appears to be an inspired leak to the effect that some 70 strategic targets in Russia have been earmarked as pos- ilba bombing objectives; and 'that the air force has assured the Joint Chiefs of Staff that each of these cities could be attacked from bases on this continent," The Post goes on to say that mili- tary illtary strategists would not be doing their duty if they did not have plans made for hitting back at Russia -or any other potential enemy -in case of war, But, "by the same token, such plans ought to be a highly guarded secret, and to allow a de- scription of them to be leaked into print is an utterly inexcusable piece of provocation, Even the blustering of the Russians has never approach- ed this." The Washington paper goes on to say that such exhibitionism is noth- ing but "military huckstering" and that "the effect, to anyone not cognizant with the facts, is to in- dict us as a nation of ]warmongers where the military has run wild." The Washington Post then asks, very pertinently, "What must be the reaction to such stories in Eur- ope, where the very essence of our efforts is to counteract fear of war. How much more dangerous must be the reaction in Russia, if the Rus- sians are actually the victims of an insecurity complex!" "It is not time to put an end to this juvenile swaggering which has no relation to legitimate defense Hogs the Show --This fat hog created a sensation at the Berlin premiere of the American movie, "State Fair." The premiere was taken in stride, but hungry Berliners cause from miles around to feast their eyes on the S00 pounds of pork on the jlaof, preparations?" this thought-provok- Ing editorial concludes, "One of the first duties of the incoming Secre- tary of Defense ought to be to muzzle the irresponsible zealots be- fore they talk us into war." CHINA The shelling of four British naval vessels on the Yangtse River -in- volving more than 40 fatalities and, roughly, 100 British casualties -sent a shudder through a world which realized only too well what such action might involve. But British diplomatic forces in the Far East have been doing every- thing possible to minimize the inter- national implications of this shelling. The British Ambassador denied hav- aent a protest to Chinese Communist headquarters. The furthest the Brit- ish have gone is to place the blame on local Chinese artillery command- ers who have not received proper instructions from the top command. The British Embassy particularly made it clear that it intended to re- main in Nanking even if the Reds entered that city by force. On an SP/ORT L5' /a StMTC It's too early to say anything definite as yet; but right now it looks very much as though among those present when the boys tee off for the Seagram Gold Cup next month will be one Sammy Snead, Which will be good news to a lot of golf kibitzers, such as the writer, who have become slightly tired of following the professional divot - diggers around because they are just too good. • * Not that Slammin' Sala isn't con- siderable of a golfer as well,. From the tee right on to the green he can make shots that none of them can excel -and that blessed few can come close to equalling, but when he gets up to where that tin is staring hila right in the face, Sam- my can blow those easy -looking four and five foot putts even as you and i, This creates an intense fellow -feeling among us dubs in the gallery -and is one of the reasons why, every time he starts. Snead has a tremendous crowd pulling for him, even though, in recent years, he has been co frequently in the position of the lady in the old song who wailed, "Wily am I so often the bridesmaid, never the bluF1i ng bride?" Snt'r.d is no strayer lo Seagram Cup competition. In fact he's cop- ped that ornate plug on three separ- ate occasions, which is more than any other golfer can say -although Leo Diegel took top place in the Canadian Open four times, but that was before the Gold ('up became the symbol of top Canadian gol?ini hours. All Snead's wins, strangely enough, have been on Toronto courses; at Mississagua in 1938; at §carbor9 i►1 1940, and at Lamhton the following summer. As this year's open is again scheduled for what is modestly self -described 1s the "Queen City" maybe this will be Slammin' Sam's turn. * * $ And it c,pulWn't lgpplp to a gift', although we persotlllly sEme- times wonder how long it will be before a Canadian will once again take the Canadian Open Champion.

But the prt)b'cnis posed 'in con- tinuing such `a policy are plain to be seen, And although settlement of the shelling incident is - at this writing - far from being final, it is felt in the East that the position of other western nations represented at Nanking has been seriously jeopard- ized. It is clear that the shelling has raised an important International problem, .\ud unless Britain and the other western powers arc prepared to suffer an extremely serious loss of prestige throughout the eastern world, this unfortunate incident is bound to complicate greatly any future relations with the rulers of China -the Chinese Comm unists, THE BRITISH COMMONWEALTH The British Commonwealth con- ference, sleeting in London, was up against -flight from the begitlning- a highly puzzling task. (-low could the eight government leaders in- volved devise some formula whereby India can become a republic, and still remain within the common- wealth? was the question which faced them. One proposal was that while the Crown would remain as the visible bond of commonwealth unity, the King would become King -not of• each separate Dominion, as at pres- ent -but of the whole common- wealth itself. In that case, while "monarchial" dominions having Governor Gen- erals -like Canada and Australia - could still pledge allegiance to the King, a republican government such as India's would arrange for its elected president merely to main- tain friendly recognition of His Majesty as evidence of the Re- public's commonwealth membership, As for the British view -although Prime Minister Attlee had talked privately with each cotnnlonwealth leader, official circles its London were avoiding any pretense of trying to "high pressure" the conference, or to present to it any cut and dried solutions of the problem. \Vhat has been actually happens ing at the conference is that eight of the chief men of the British 'Commonwealth have been sitting around a table to see if they can agree to a bold and historic RE- DEFINITION of that common- wealth, And, as they conferred, these men had continually to keep in mind public opinion back home. In Australia, for instance, there is vigorous support for retaining present commonwealth forms with- out change, in South Africa there is a strong British sentiment which is adamant against any weakening of the commonwealth ties now ex- isting. And in this country to quote William H. Stringer writing in The Christian Science Monitor, "there is a nationalist minority in Quebec which would like to tie Canada proclaiming itself a re- pn.?lLc like India." Whether lir not a successful solu- tion can be found to the far-reach- ing problems involved, remains for the future to reveal, UTTLE REGGIE KY RUMPUS - GET T1413 ONE 1' CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING AGENTS WANTED( OILS, GREASES, TIRES Insecticide., Electric Fence Controllers, House and Elam Paint, Root •Coatinge. etC.

At the curb stood Max Berber's limousine, and just ahead of it, a taxi. Four maudlin "Collegians" having a singsong, obstructed the entrance to Berber's car, but trade way while the lady stepped in. Then suddenly three of them gave Berber the bunt's rush, while the fourth clambered in beside Paula Paulen, tap (lancer extraordinary, Max spluttered and fumed while the three kidded hint. A letter was pressed into his clenching fist and bis car keys were frisked from hint. The taxi jumped forward, and in a moment was followed by the lint- ousir.e carrying the dancer and four members of the notorious Scar- let Gang in evening clothes and top hats, still simulating drunken col- legians, singing to drown out the cries of the distressed dancer. In the Holland Tunnel the sing- song ceased and one of the gang said to the girl: "1 itis is something new in kid- naps, sister. \Ve're all jolly good feltoo.s, members of a theatrical trottt c (to the gcneril nubile).

"Cone of us a female impersonator, haw' haw!" laughed the spokesman. The operator laughed too, and began stamping the tickets. "Trains not due for thirty minutes yet," he apokgized. "O,K, brother, we'll put on a little show while we're waiting." Ile strode over to Paula. "Smile." sis- ter, SM ILE," he hissed, and out loud, "Conic on, Sally Rand, give the gentleman your best imitation of a :all dance." Paula was ready to faint but en- Urec into the game by dancing a whirling tap •number that had the operator's eyes popping. Some slug- around, ing followed and a bottle was paesed "Now, another dance," ordered the master of ceremonies, "Just a slow one," pleaded Paula, "I'tn very tired," "Olt, all right," yawned the fel- low, She made a long slow stride straight to the operator and whis- pered. 'Listen!' Then she perform. ell a painfuly punctuated dance with more body unduations than foot- work, The bottle passed around again and the operator went to his key, took an order, sent one, and in a few minutes the train was in.. They boarded it. Sargo was a small city. A taxi was ready waiting for them and whisked them out into the country where they got out in front of a big house. Every shadow exuded a police officer. Eight of them had pinioned the four "collegians" before the door opened, and two more seized the servant. Paula promptly fainted. Two of- ficers carried her to safety. "Phis house has been under sus- picion for a long time," said an of- ficer to Paula. "When that opera- tor's message mentioned 'Sargo' we posted a squad at the house.

The only tray we could tell he was crying was by his mouth's being open and tears on his cheeks. Hereafter I'll take my children to competent doctors.—Mrs. 1 set down a can of lye, while doing 'sty family wash, and my two-year-old daughter ate some of it. \Ve rushed her to the hospi- tal. -After two weeks of treatment, we were able to carry her home. We had a large medical bill and untold anxiety because of my care- lessness.—Mrs, A.H. 1 left my fine Jersey heifer in the sante pasture with the horses, instead of keeping her to herself just before calving. A colt kicked her, causing her to lose the calf. I shall not make this mistake again!—T, K, Killing our best laying hens with anti -freeze was my biggest mis- take. Last spring when I drained tuy car, 1 left the pan under the car and the chickens drank the solution. The next morning some of the hens were' too sick to fly off the roost, sonic were dying, and the rest were dead.—C. W. 11. I repaired my five -roost house inside, instead of • first putting a good roof on it. A few days after ceiling and papering the inside and screening the porches, a spark of fire front the kitchen flue landed on the bad roof, and I lost my entire house,—E. B. M. Relying too much on old or faulty farts equipment can prove very costly. Last fall I neglected to re- place worn harness for my wagon. The harness gave way while 1 was rifling a loaded wagon, caus- ing the team to run away and throw me in front of two wheels. As a result I suffered three month with a broken heel and badly cut foot, and still cannot walk.—T.T.W, People wlto insist on drinking before driving are putting the quart before the hearse, HOME OWNERS WHO HAVE CISTERNS WILL FIND THIS SELF•CLEANINO STRAINERA SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM OF KEEPING THE EAVE CON.

"Ilut that's not all," said the man, producing trout another pocket a parrot, which perched on the piano, sang an aria front the opera to the puppy's accompaniment. Almost speechless by now, the producer managed to bring out an offer of $1000 a week for that." "Er—er," said`.the man, nervous- ly, "before you decide. I must tell you this act's a bit of a cheat.

There are tailor monks for robes and vestments, cobbler plonks, blacksmith monks. There is even a co-op store rust by these Russian brethren in Lutheran Finland, As soon as visitors arrive by steamer at the largest island — area 24 square utiles — the blackrobed brothers in their tall cylinder hats are there on the quay to act as porters, They run their own hotel and a restaurant, And since they know that their visitors appreciate entertainment they even stage a church service lasting nineteen hours l Another of Finland's strange communities is Alariehanut, the capital of lost ships. Commercial sailing ships of any size are no longer being built, but Atariehautrt is continually buying up the stars viviug veterans, reconditioning them and putting them into use. The Mariehamn fleet has but one owner, who operates his business on amazingly simple lines. He is a one-man company, doing everything himself in his own home, Having no office salaries or rents to pay, his sailing is sheer profit, and as he - pays scrap prices for his ships, he can still count upon the vessels to be worth their weight in scrap whenever he decides to get rid of them, Looked Ahead Jake was a worthless and impro- vident fellow, One day he said to the local grocer: "I got to have a sack of flour! I'm all ,out and my family is starvin.' ' ' "All 'right Jake," said the grocer. "If you need a sack of flour and have no money to buy it with whirl give you a sack, But, see Isere, Jake, there's a circus coming to town in a few days. and if I give you a sack of flour, are you sure you won't sell It and take your family to the circus?" 'Olt, no," said Jake. "I got the circus money saved up already." TiliFARM FRONT 4 j 0 6121311#1L South of the border a number of newspapers have been "rapping" the use of DDT for spraying in dairy barns --some of them even Dping so far as to say that the DT is responsible for the "virus "X" disease of man and the "X" disease of animals." • • • Now—following a meeting of the principal govern►nent agencies con- cerned with the use of insecticides —the United States Department of Agriculture has come out with an official statement, It says, "There is no evidence that the use of DDT in accordance with the recommen• dations ot the various federal agencies has ever caused human sickness due to the DDT itself." • • "However," the statement goes on, "minor toxic symptoms may be produced by coal -oil and various solvents used in DDT and in prac- tically all other insecticide mix- tures" • • • "Totally t';itltout foundation" is the way the statement deals with the published reports that DDT is responsible for the diseases men- tioned in my first paragraph. Both these disea• es had been reported and recognized before DDT was ever used. • • • Our own Ottawa Department of Agriculture has something to say on the subject. To protect farmers from buying insecticides that are either worthless or highly danger- ous, all such preparations sold in Canada conte under the provisions of the Pest Control Products Act. No pesticide is allowed on the market until it has been analyzed and approved by technical officials of the Department. And if such pre- parations are used IN ACCORD- ANCE WiTIH THE INSTRUC- TIONS ON TI -IE LABEL, they will be effective for the purpose for which they are recommended and will have no detrimental effects. ('flue capitals are thine, as I be- lieve that most of the trouble with D D T has been because people DIDN'T follow the directions properly). • • • Officials of our Department of Agriculture say that spraying dairy barns with DDT—particularly with oil solutions—should be done when cattle are NOT in the stalls; and that special care should be taken to stake sure that milk and cream cans and milking machined are not touched by the spray. • • • This is because DDT in oil solu- tions can be absorbed through the skin of animals, and will be found both in the milk and in the animal fat. However, there has been little or no difficulty in spraying cattle themselves with DDT, when wet- table powders are used in water, The water spray won't penetrate the skin, and the residue is not absorbed by the tissues. • + • BUT EVEN \VITII WATER SPRAY THE UTMOST CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO SEE THAT MILKING UTENSILS DO NOT COME IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE SPRAY, • • • There are still some farmers who believe that chemical fertilizers are ruining our soils; but if you are one of them, I have to tell you that the facts seem to be against your belief. No experiments have ever shown that chemical fertilizers are in any way detrimental to soil. • • • Over in England there's been a test going for almost a century —95 years to be exact—using man- ure on one patch of wheat, and chemical fertilizers on a similar patch. The plot receiving 1,392 pounds of complete fertilizer each year out -yielded the plot treated with an annual application of 15.7 tons of manure. During the past five years the yield was 4.4 bushels per acre greater. So it would seem that this patch of soil hadn't been poisoned or harmed after receiving chemical fertilizer annually for 95 years—which is quite a stretch of time, • • • Front what I hear more and more farmers in southern and central Ontario are getting interested in sunflower growing — although just how many of them are going so far as to put in a real crop I really cannot say at the moment, • • • But from Buenos Aires comes word that is rather interesting, This report says that, compared with 1948, the area sown to sun- flower this year has increased by 25 per cent—to a record figure ot almost four and a half million acres. This is because Argentine farmers have found that their sunower crop is much more profitable than corn. Besides that, maturing wheat crops that were killed by heavy frosts have been replaced by sunflofrets. • • • Attd, in case you don't already know It, lots of folks think that sunflower seeds ---or at least the insides of them—are better eating than peanut.. I have a friend — he carne from Russia years ago— who always has a handful or co int his pocket. Puts one edgewise be- tween his teeth—oracle open the hull, sucks out the "Innards," and reaches for another. Try It soma time.

He regarded her soberly for a minute, then his smile came again and was faintly atnused. He laid crisply; "My detail will be waiting et the edge of town. Tell your driver to be there in an hour." He bowed stiffly, his eycs still upon her, "Au revoir-Miss Ames." He turned and walked front the hotel. In her room again,* her luggage ready, Virginia was angry.

Then she thought of Phil Law- rence and softened, Her thoughts leaped 70 miles across wild country to hint and she grew gradually un- easy. More than, merely uneasy. She became afraid, There was Phil's strange, startling letter. She took It from her hand- bag and read it once more. It was as mysterious and as frightening as it had been on every other reading. It was dated April 13th, 1878 - six weeks before, The face side of the single page was the proper sort of affectionate letter from fiance to beloved. But It ended abruptly in the middle of a sentence. \Vhat was written on the reverse side was what had brought Vir- ginia across the country to the Ter- ritory -and was what filled :ger with fear, It was merely one sentence; "Colne to nue, I beg you, For God's sake don't fall me!" CHAPTER II Those few written limes lived with Virginia. They rang like a tocsin of alarm in her consciousness. Their meaning was obscure. Either Phil Lawrence merely needed to see her out of lonlincss - or he was in trouble, in danger, and could not face it alone, Whatever the motive behind the strange message, she was coming to him, Nothing, not even her father's displeasure nor the necessity of travelling in Jim Rand.all's company would stop her, She was deter- mined on that. It was two hours after the lieu- tenant's visit that she finally per- mitted O'Grady to carry her lug- gage from the hotel, And then very slowly followed to the street. She stepped front the hotel lobby, crossed the porch and was descend- ing the steps when she saw the dark, well-dressed man who had smiled and bowed to her that morning from the street. He halted before her on the steps and removed his hat. He seemed little over 30, but his temples were lightly frosted with gray. He was quite what she had judged hint to be: a gentleman, handsome, soft- spoken, well-mannered. • * "Miss Antes?" he said. "1 under- stand you are going to Santa Bon- ita. My name is Stephen Barron. My home is in Santa Bonita--" Ilia voice broke as he saw Vir- ginia look beyond hint. He slowly turned to follow her glance. Vir- ginia had been distracted by Jim Randall. Ile was swinging from the saddle of his horse, his face angry. He strode toward her in a determined way that delighted her. She had annoyed him, as she had intended. He came onto the steps so that he faced them both. His face was not only angry but threatening. "Has this man annoyed you, Miss Ames?" he demanded. Virginia showed her surprise. "No , . Not at all." "I saw hint accost you." Color burned in her, cheeks. "Thank you for reminding ole of the proprieties, Lt. Randall," she said coldly. "It was I who was at fault, f should not have permitted him to stop me. Do you mind permitting me to go to my carriage?" Jim Randall stepped back, but the other man held up his hand. * * * "My apologies, Miss Ames. We were not properly introduced i ad- mit." "You were slow in realizing that, Barron," Jim Randall snapped. Stephen Barron was a man of vast self-control; an ease lay over him that was marvelous. He had been insulted, but he showed no anger beyond a faint narrowing of his dark eyes. "I don't like your insinuations, Randall," he said.

In the final week of His ministry our Lord spoke more particularly of ♦vents to come, He foretold the de- struction of the beautiful temple. "There shall not' be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down." Forty years later this prediction was literally fulfilled. So enraged was the Roman general, Titus, at the stubborn resistance of the Jews that he ordered the temple to be fired. The melted gold ran down between the foundation stones, The Roman soldiers in their quest for the gold saw to It that not one atone was left upon another. The destruction of Jerusalem was a judgment of the Jews. But Jesus taught the judgment of all nations. He himself will return and reward every man according to his works, There arc various views with re- spect to the exact order of events connected with the return of our Savior, In regard to some details it is better not to be too dogmatic. But our individual responsibility is strik- ingly clear, We have a work to do. At an hour' now unknown to any on earth, our Lord will return and take account of our conduct. We art therefore to be in life in constant readiness for His appearing, for on His approval depends our eternal happiness. Let us therefore pattern our lives after the Bible standard, turning from sin and trusting in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. The life of faith will be characterized by works of faith. There wit: be nt rrustration of the course of justice at the final judg- ment. He who wills now to be our Savior will then be our jtfdge. He will not judge merely by appearance but will judge the secrets of men's hearts.

When few could read, the language of the Prayer Book was heard, week by week, by multitudes of simple folk, and the dignified and euphonious phrases of that book entered the common speech of the people. We owe dozens of fine expressions, in frequent use, to the Book of Common Prayer. The Prayer Book is largely in the lan- guage of Archbishop Cranmer and of Bishop Coverdale, The English of the Prayer Book is of the Golden Age of our language. A hundred and fifty years later, in the reign of William and Mary, a revision was prepared which for- tunately did not win approval. It is now lost on the dusty shelves of co 'r;;e armies, A long-winded per- iod of English writing had begun. Long sentences with dependent clauses, long words derived from the Latin, replaced the vigorous Anglo-Saxon words, and the short seute•nccs of the English of the Golden Age. William and Mary's re- visers took Cranmer's perfect Col- lects and puffed them out with pious platitudes, But, thank God, this re- vision was never accepted, English speaking folk did not have their dic- tion spoiled by listening, Sunday by Sunday in the House of God, to such bombast. The language of the Book of Common Prayer has 'a wonderful rhythm and euphony which makes it delightful to read or to hear, It is full of lovely phrases quite peculiar to itself, "We bring our years to an end, as it were a tale that is told"; "We have erred and rayed from thy ways like lost sweep"; "'That peace which the world cannot give"; "Pass our time in rest and quiet- ness"; "Show forth they praise, not only with our lips, but in our lives"; "A due sense of all Thy mercies," Some have criticized these supposed redundancies of the Prayer Book, such as "rest and quietness," "erred and strayed," but these not only provide rhythm, they also serve a real purpose in corporate worship, They give our slow minds time to grasp the thought, when it is given first in a word of Anglo-Saxon de- rivation, and then one of Latin origin, The Book of Common Prayer was the earliest effort to provide for all men in one book, the Church's cor- porate acts of worship. Hitherto there had b,' 'n a' book for the ser- vices of daily prayer (the Breviary) and another book containing the service of the Eucharist (Missal), yet another book containing the oc- casional offices, and another with the Bishop's special services, These were all in Latin. The people were provided with a book (the Primer) containing a few private devotions in their mother tongue, By simplify- ing the ,services, and translating them into the mother tongue, and making them available in one handy volume, the worship of the Church could become corporate, as it had been in the early centuries. Instead of the priests in the Sanctuary re- citing the service among themselves in one language, while the people in the nave engaged to private devo- tions in another language, all could now worship together, The priest could recite his part, and the people could respond With theirs. The ideal of tht whole community, rich and poor, high and low, clerk and mer- chant, craftsman and farmer, house- wife and workman, offering to God the life and work of the whole par- il w'th tap on understanding, coulee teemed.

Perhaps you area new- comer to your district, perhaps you may even be a newcomer to Can- ada, If that is so there will be plenty of people in your district that you have never met; customs you have never heard about—and the best place to find out about both is to join the W.I. The country women of Canada are friendly; there is hardly one who would not go all-out to help a neighbour in an emergency, They have always been so inclined, but I must admit that somewhere along the way, and more especially of recent years, there hasn't been the same visiting back and forth there used to be, Women, these days, rarely thnk of just slipping on a coat over a clean apron or house- dress, picking up a bit of sewing or mending, and stepping over to Mrs, Goodenighbour's for an afternoon visit. It is hard to find a really satis- factory explanation — dear only knows women fifty years ago were busy enough. Perhaps it is that country women, now that a lot of them have household conveniences like their town and city cousins, have also absorbed some of the self-suffi- ciency—perhaps I night even say self-centred attitude of the town dweller, You know how it is—a woman in town can live for many months in a district without even knowing her next-door neighbour at all. We don't want that to hap- pen in the country—it is surely something to guard against. Neigh- bourliness is an essential to country living. The newcomer, who thinks he -or she—can be an isolationist, is always the loser in the long run, Bt't t',itiltg takes time—and if we feel we cannot take that time to visit back and forth as often as we would like to, then the W.I. pro- vides a medium for neighbours get. ting to know each other and dis• cussing their common problem*, It is also a contact from which many a dear and lasting friendship may bt the direct result. Yes, farm folk need the Institute as never before because we don't even get a chance to visit on the telephone the way we used to, Party lines are all so busy these days that there is hardly time to say any more than hullo and boodbye, But perhaps there isn't a Women's Institute branch in your district. That is an obstacle easily overcome, If there isn't one, start one, There is no time like the present; no per- son better for the job than YOU. Phone your neighbours; ask them if they wou:d like a branch organ- ized in that district, and if they wllf help. Do you know what the an- swer will be? I'II tell you. Nine out of ten neighbours will say—"Yes, it would be fine, and I'll be glad to help . , , but I'm not sure about joining, I am afraid I would never be able to get to the meetings—I am just that busy." But don't let that discourage you —it is what most of them say. 1f you are sincere in wanting an Insti- tute branch, get in touch with your District President; call an organ- ization meeting and the rest will take care of itself. You will get your Institute—and the ladies \VILL turn out to the meetings, You can lay your hand to your heart on that. Two hours after he reported the theft of his car to the police of Everett, Mass., a motorist remem- bered to look in the garage. It was there, of course. REWARD!
