SPORT �v S1TC When it was announced the other day that Pentti Lund, of the late and unlamented 1949 New York Rangers Hockey team, had won the Calder Trophy as the year's outstanding rookie; and that furth- ermore his young team -plate Allan Stanley had taken second place in the balloting, words of wisdom felt from the lips of one Conn Smythe. 1 * * "Thank Heaven" or words to that effect gnoth the Maple Leaf's man- ager, "they don't decide the Stanley Cup b•• vote." * 4 Y Now far be it from us to question the knowledge and judgment of the individuals who select these All Star teams and the winners of the various annaual awards. As for Pentti Lund being a pretty fair winger, and Allen Stanleyhighly asefd rearguard, we would tie the last to deny that such is the case. * * * Still, there does seem to be some- thing slightly haywire in the fact that the Maple Leafs, who have been practically outclassing every- thing else in the loop -that is to say when the real shooting started — should be so consitently overlooked when the honours are being handed out, also the extra cash that goes with them, • * ♦ We were just about to give up as one of those deep, dark mysteries too tough for us to solve when an old adage came to mind, It runs something like this—In the Country of the Blind the one -eyed man is Ring." * e t So maybe that's the solution.

One day, Jones, goaded be- yond endurance, knocked Robinson down. When the latter had recovered, he called on Jones. "Wel', what do you want now?" demanded the angry one. "Does your first-ai(1 book say ,what to do fir a black eye? 1f so, can you lend the for a few mo- ments?" asked Robinson, mildly. l C The umpire, in his sober blue, Nobody pipes a paean to, Nobody croons him loving lays.

Nobody' laughs with him at bars, Or offers silver -foiled cigars, Or make him gifts of bottled brews (However liberal with their boo's) And this, I think is truly sad, He too, was once a normal lad, With normal instincts, normal powers, No different, I am sure, from ours. 1f, by chance of life, there slid A cankerworm across his lid And,, in the course of time there stole A dreadful blight throughout his soul To warp his judgment color his mind, Curdle his love for humankind, Debase his reasondim his sight, Convert his kindliness to spite, Harden his heart to pleading youth, Deflect him from the ways of truth— Is his the fault, is his the blame?

LARGE ECONOMICAL SIZE 65C te., ISSUE 20 — 1949 GREAT BRITAIN A very slight change in the word- ing of any statement can Blake a very great difference in its meaning. Back in 1926 the relationship of members of the British Common- wealth of Nations to the King was defined in this way; "the Crown is the symbol of the free association of the members of the British Cont- nionwealth (who) are united by it common allegiance to the (sown." On April 270,, after a conference lasting six days, representatives of eight members of the Common- wealth announced a new definition of each nation's bond with the King, "Acceptance of the King as the symbol of the free association of its independent member nations and, as such, the head of the Com, mon wealth." While sarcastic Londoners were suggesting that the national anthem be changed to "God Save the Sym- bol", there was an important pus• pose behind the changed definition. As it reads now it permits the Do- minion of India, which has an- nounced its intention of becoming a republic owing no allegiance to the Crown, to remain in the Com- monwealth. The .loss of India would be a serious'economic blow to the United Kingdom, which badly needs that country's vast markets, India, on the other hand, apparently made her decision to stay under the new definition largely because of the trade advantages the system of Empire preferences will guarantee. On the whole, the effect of the announcement has been a sea! strengthening of the British Con1- monw'ea'th's prestige throughout the world; and there are those who believe that Burma and Ireland, which have recently become in- dependent republics, may wish to join the Commonwealth on the newly -defined terms. GERMANY With the possibility that the Berlin blockade may have been lifted before these words reach readers of this column, a slight glance backward might not be out of place, 1t was on June 23rd, 1948, that a Soviet news service in Berlin made an announcement which read "All freight and passenger services from the western zones of Germany to Berlin is hereby suspended be- cause of technical troubles." With that, the blockade of Berlin was in full blast The following day the British, American and French Military Governments imposed the counter blockade which banned all ship- ment of goods to the Soviet sector of Berlin, Two days later British fifty American pilots flew ifty trans- port planes into the German Capital, carrying supplies. In the eleven )months that have passed the blockade and the spec- tacular airlift have been the biggest things in the daily lives of the two and a quarter million Berliners living in the Western sector—and the success of the air lift, which was far beyond even the most opti- mistic hopes, has been the major instrument in softening the once - adamant position of Russia regard- ing the matter. It looks -very much as though, for once, the Russian bluff was "called"—and without provoking the armed clash which so many thought inevitable, RUSSIA For sotne weeks there have been rumors that the Soviet Union has launched what appears to be a delberate, large-scale and officially inspired campaigtl against the Jew- ish peoples, Even those who are willing to believe the worst regard- ing Russia found it hard to believe these reports, but evidence that they Fiery Itching SHIN RASHES?

Anti- Semitic cartoons satirize critics of Soviet music, plays and movies by showing each of them with a delib- erately emphasized hooked nose and other supposedly Jewish character- istics, Strangely enough the artist who drew the cartoons is himself a Jew.

IMF Mr. Diggles On Duty By MARY WHiTEFORD M r, Diggles kept Itis head down ere though he were studying the prescription, scarcely hearing Mrs, 1'onpkin's voice through the noise Of blood thudding In his teunples. When he tried to speak, his lips were dry and his tongue moved nervously over them, "I beg your pardon, Mrs, Tompkins, what was that you said?" "1 said if you haven't a delivery boy 1'11 wait for the three o'clock bus, but I'm anxious to get back as loon as I can," He looked again at Dr, Price's cramped handwriting, "Olt, I'll de- Hver It, Mrs, 'Tompkins. l'm sorry to learn Air, Tompkins Isn't well."

The moment he used to dreamt of years ago, was here at last, This would cost Dlr, Price his practice, Dr, Price sat down and mopped his forehead, The pity was, Dr, Price would never know he could have saved himself, if he hadn't made it so clear that a man who mixed prescriptions wasn't supposed to know about diag- nosis, Dr, Price would never know what he'd done to himself when he told Mrs, White site might as well give the twins a chocolate soda as Diggles' Own Whooping Cough Mixture, Because of Dr, Price's new ways of doing things, no one bought Diggles' Ready Rheumatism Re- liever now, Shots it was, the doctor was giving for everything. Not pre- scriptions, Manslaughter, they ca led it. Ile wet his lips. Well, no one could ex- pect to interfere with Dr. Price's prescriptions again, Not a second time, Though it was so many years ago, he could feel the flush of anger that flooded his face remembering the ddy he'd called Dr, Price up and sug- gested that maybe the heart medi- cine he ordered for Mr, Vcnahles was t00 strong. "I know what I'nm doing. Just mind your own business, Diggles, and I can mind thine," He looked again at the prescrip- tion, '!'here was no mistaking the symbol and he'd fill it as it stood. He reached for the bottle and re- moved the cork, Carefully, he meas- ured out the prescribed dose, Mr. Diggles straightened sudden- ly, staring at the partly filled mortar. A feeling of nausea swept through him as he snatched It up and flung the contents into the sink, His hand, replacing the bottle on the shelf, trembled, Outside, the wind howled and flakes of ice made a cold noise beat- ing the window pane. Slowly, he walked toward the tele- phone, After all, just as many people swore by Dr. Price as trusted Diggles, As he waited, listening to Dr, Price's telephone bell ringing, the shop door opened. Mr, Diggles put down the recever and went to the front, Dr. Price was on the mat, stannphg the snow from his feet, "Diggles, will you let me see the prescription Mrs, Tompkins Just brought in?" "1 was just trying to call you about it, Dr, Price, I felt there was some little inaccuracy," Dr. Price nodded, "Something told the, But I wasn't really wor- ried, I knew you'd catch a mistake if there was one.

ARCHIE TllHRO!i Dairy farmer are having their troubles right now—(for that mat- ter, who isn't?)—so I thought it might be timely to talk about some- thing new along their line, It's a new process for canning fresh, whole milk, without first evaporat- ing or condensing it; and there are those who think that it might rev- olutionize the whole dairy industry, There are still some problems to be worked out before it's perfect; but already milk canned by this process has been kept, without re- frigeration, for more than a mouth in the can, and for several days after being opened. * «. « The process was devised t)y Dr. Roy Graves, a real dairy exi,et•t and he's backed by Jack Stambaugh, a farmer and implement dealer, They believe that the process will jhange the whole very expensive bottling and delivery system of milk hand- ling. What's more important they predict that it wi'1 save consumers five or more cents per quart—AND, A'1' 'J'IIE SAME TIME, IIRiNG BETTER RETURNS '1'O Tlll', FARMER. Here's how the thing works. Cows arc milked with a pipe -line milker, a milking machine in which the milk goes to one big vat, in- stead of into buckets on the milker unit, Such milkers are now trade, and new models coming into pro- duction are expected to be cheaper than bucket -type machines, * When the last cow is milked, the vacuum space in the vat is filled with nitrogen gas, Keeping air som- pletely away from the milk is one of the main features of the process, « t4, Next the milk is homogenised the flask -pasteurized at 190 degrees for 19 seconds. Froin the pasteurizer the milk flows to the canning ma- chine, where sterilized cans are filled and sealed in a nitrogen -fill- ed chamber, Then the cans are sterilized for 3 to 4 minutes at 260 degrees, to kill any last bacteria, « « « Main problem to be solved is to get rid of a slight cooked flavor in the milk A big can company is now working on a can lacquer which will help reduce off -flavors. « « « Graves' research is aimed at find- ing sterilized time and temperature which will not affect the flavor of the milk. « 4 4 1Iow will the system work on the farm? Graves thinks that there are three ways, « « « One is that big dairy farms -500 cows and up—could have their own canning plants. « « r Another is that a group of farm- ers could go together and milk their cows at one central point where canning equipment was installed— a milking canning co-op. A group of dairymen in one of the western states set up a central milking par- lor for their farms several years ago. * • « A third tray would he for individ- ual farmers to have pipe -line milk- ers connected to portable, insu'ated vats, By Milking at exactly the same time every day to fit in with clusely- timed truck schedules, their milk could get to near -by canning plants within the I'/: hour limit Dr. f�Telve Fays, it is necesstiry to main- tain, The' truck would pick up the full vat and lease an empty one. Those Hata Here 16 a story which will appeal to all husbands who are puzzled by their wives' taste in hats, Which probably means — just all husbands, It is told by Frances Perkins, the former U.S. Secretary of Labour. Site was in a picture show, and suddenly realised that a man was sitting behind her. Turning to hint, she said: "If any hat prevents your seeing this picture, I'd be happy to take it off," "Please don't," said the man. "The hat's much funnier than the movie."

CHAPTER 11 (Continued From Last Week) "\Ve won't go into that, Barron, I haven't the time." The lieutenant turned to Virginia and took her Aral, He helped her almost roughly into the carriage. \\then she was seated under its top, he said, "I've held up the march for an hour," Virginia said demurely, "I'nt very sorry, lieutenant," Ile turned to O'Grady, who 4:limbed into the driver's seat "Fol- low me close, driver, I won't be delayed longer" Ile walked to his horse and put his foot into the stirrup, Stephen Barron stepped down from the hotel rteps. "Randall, one minute." Jing Randall faced him impati- intly. "Well?" "I'd like to know if you've gotten a line on those bandits who robbed the stage last night," "I've investigated and obtained a description of two of them," the army officer said, "I had time for no further investigation, The hold- up shall be reported to Maj, Ben- yon at Fort Winfield." ,. #4 "Well -thanks," Barron said. "Don't thank me, Barron," Jitn Randall said, "I'd like to arrest those bandits, but not merely to accom- modate you. You understand that, I guess." "f understand that," Stephen Bar- ron smiled lazily as his fingers rolled a cigarette, There was the threat of sharp steel behind his smile; he looked suddenly hard and dangerous without changing et all. °'However, I suffered the only loss, Two thousand dollars of mine was in .the box those bandits took, I can't afford losses like that." Virginia watched the two men; they seemed like duelists. Their eyes measured each other. She could sense their wills clash. Jim Randall said, "It's not your first loss in a stage holdup, Barron, Nor likely to be your last, There's something nighty queer that those bandits prey only on you." Stephen Barron lighted his cigar- stte. He said evenly, "Yes -mighty • queer." CROSSWORD PUZZLE ACROSS Monastery , Weed i .

She smiled back, aware of Jim Randall's annoyed frown, South out of Lannasa, the caval- cade traversed a trail so level and straight it seemed to reach into the pale blue of space. Three army freight wagons, big lumbering vee hicic9, trailed behind Virginia's two - horse carriage. Twenty troopers formed the escort, marching behind the wagons in double file, A ser- geant and a bugler rode ahead of Virginia's carriage, and at the head of the column Jim Randall rode with the scout, a leathery -faced titan wearing battered sombrero, a baggy vest over faded gray shirt, denim Levies tucked Into worn eowboy boots, t Hoofs made a clop -clopping sound, Sabers clattered in scab- bards. Saddles creaked, The wa- gons gave out complaining noises, Airzona sun biased in a brass sky. The miles stretched long and tor- tuous,' Virginia challenged this new country with eager eyes, it was the country Phil Lawrence had adopted nearly two years before, a land from which he meant to wrest his fortune, It was a wild, lonely country. Late itt the afternoon, Jun Ran- dall rode back to Virginia's car- riage. His horse .was lathered attd dust -begrimed, but he showed no signs of trail -wear. He pointed in- to the vast distance ahead. "Beyond those granite hills show- ing through the (teat haze," he said, lies letter country, \Ve'Il catnp there for the night," • * The granite hills lay behind thetn at dusk. Camp was made by a stream bordered by cottonwood trees. It was bivouac for the sol. diers, but Jim Randall had a tent erected for Virginia. They ate army food in the glow of the campfires, and the night swiftly closed down. Stars began to sparkle against the blue -black of the sky, and the noon rose over faraway hills, a great orange -tinted ball Virginia walked along the stream's edge, her thoughts uneasy and dwelling on Phil Lawrence, She stopped and leaned back against the slanting trunk of a tree, and there Jim Randall found her, "Don't wander too far," he said.

Yet far too few of us pay any real attention to it, Yet the food we eat -or don't cat -has so Bruch to do with hots' we feel and the en- joyment we get out of life, Some time ago a survey was made of some families down in Pennsyl- vania -average families, very much like yours, who THOUGHT that they were eating well, Yet a year of better meal planning and wiser selection of foods proved that a lot of so-called "minor" ailments could be almost done away with; ailments such as colds, fatigue "nerves" and so on. Eating the wrong foods over a period of years even showed up in poor bones and teeth, So I thought today I'd give you, just a reminder, a little chart which shows, in handy form, the different food groups and the number of servings each person should get. FOOD GROUPS Leafy, green, and yellow vegetables Citrus fruit, tomatoes ' Potatoes, sweet potatoes Other vegetables and fruit Milk (may be as cheese, ice cream) Meat, poultry, fish Eggs Dry beans, peas and nuts Flour, cereals, balled goods (whole grain, enriched, restored) Fats, oils, sugar, syrup, preserves Ever get a notion that you'd like to get busy and whip up some kind of a dessert that was really new and different? Well, here's one that I'd be a'most willing to bet you've never tried, and which I think you're going to really smack your lips over.

ISSUE 20 - 1949 ANNE R!ST _kin f.tova, a,tt.bdot _ A tired mother asks my opinion of her situation, 1'liis mother has been married 2d cars, She had only two children, and she lost the son during this last war, She has not got over it, She has always been nervous and 111 poor health, and a few operations slid not tend to calm her rervcs, Now she feels that her daughter, who is a mother too, is demanding of her more than she can hope to perform. The daughter is Married, has two u, She yoalso ngstershas a part - time job, She leaves her four -rear -old in a day nursery, and her mother cares for the halo. The two children are tvitlh their grandmother every evening, while their mother and fathei go out "I don't mind keeping the chil- dren one or two nights a week," she writes, "while my daughter and her husband go to a party or the theater. lint I think when they just go to friends' homes, they should be able to lake the children along, "I t is quite a job to keep babies all the time, after your own are grown and you're out of practice. Every night after my daughter takes her children home, I ant a nervous wreck. I love the children dearly, and hate myself for quarrel- ing with my daughter, But she never does anything for ere. She never makes a lied after the chit' (teen's naps, or does their dishes, or picks up after them. "diy husband and my relatives, and sometimes her own husband feel that I ant being imposed upon. Their home is not far off, but she and her babies practically live at my house. I do love the girl very Bruch, and I wish we could get along better together." * A grown daughter who has * babies of her own should assume * her proper responsibilities, 'I'o * park theta with her mother, and * expect her to look after then * every night while •she and her husl);cud euioy themselves, fo manifestly unfair. Not only is .she robbing herself of the companion- ship of her children, but site is taking advantve of her mother's kindness, And showing, in this rase, precious little appreciation of all the service her mother in giving, This is the time for that mother to take her stand, She nntst he relieved of some of these responsibilities which dram her strength, For her daughter's * sake, too, the girl must be made * to behave like a mother should, * and not burden her mother with * the duties which naturally are * her own. * I t is all very well for a grand- * mother to be an occasional baby- * sitter. But to assume the entire * care of even one child every day k unjust. It deprives her and * her husband of any social life of * their own (which this woman * surely needs) and it imposes re- * sponsibitities upon her which, at * her age, are outrageous, * The one way that this girl will * come to respect her mother (and * so get along with her more * pleasantly) is for that mother to * take a firm stand, and refuse any * longer to be imposed upon. * * * A mother can do too much for her children, When they come to take her for granted, trouble starts, Anne Hirst's long obsedvation of family troubles is at your service, Write her at Box 1, 123 Eighteenth St., New Toronto, Ontario If BACKACHEIs HoldinqYou Back It's Dodd's You May Need!

But to my sur- prise the dallies arc blooming this spring better than they have done for years, bo now what do I do— leave them or lift them? I don't know.. At present I am satisfied just to enjoy them, just as we enjoy so much during "the uncertain glory of an April day," As, for instance, that rainbow last Satur- day, bid you see it? I think it was possibly the most nearly per- fect rainbow I ever saw, From here It appeared as a complete half - circle and the colours did not fade in the middle as they so often do. Maybe it was seeing such a rainbow that inspired Wordsworth's immor- tal lines—"My heart leaps up when I behold a rainbow in the sky". We are not all inspired to poetry but I imagine most of ua know what it is to have a heart that does a bit of a flip-flop in sheer wonder at this age-old phenomena. By comparison think of all the marvel - lolls inventions we know today and all so complicated—a switch here and a lever there; wheels and gears, all over the place. But when Nature puts on a show we are awed by its very simplicity. The rainbow is one instance, and another that perfect eclipse of the moon a short while back. nut sometimes when Nat u r e takes a hand in things we are not so well pleased. At the barn, for instance. For nearly four weeks Partner has been doctoring a young cow. She started off with indiges- tion, later she had a coif—and there were complications. After that we expected her to get better. But no , .. in spite of Partner follow- ing the vet's instructions to the letter she gradually became worse. Yesterday other complications de- veloped and her heart showed signs of giving out. The vet carne along and gave her a "pep" dose, but this morning, in spite of it, she was (lead. Doctoring a cow for weeks and thin 'losing her in the end is just one of those hard knocks a farmer has to take in his stride once in awhile. Partner says we can't grumble—in all our years of farm- ing this is only the third cattle beast we have lost—not counting the calves, of course. We lost quite a few calves in our early days be- cause we fed them too well. The digestion of a calf is so easily up- set— and w•c had to learn the hard way, Speaking of calves—have you seen the latest in calf -feeding epuipment? A pail, no less, especial- ly fitted with a nipple on the out- side. Partner says it would take one person one look after the calves if there were many to feed with that contraption. It would also need scrupulous cleanliness or else there would be trouble. My, but it's a quiet house around here. Honey is away to the dog hospital for a little visit, so I have been able to keep the steps free of old bones and chicken wings, Late- ly I have been taking Honey with me in the , cab of the "pick-up." When I do that Tippy just about goes wild. It would take brute strength to get Tippy into a car so maybe her fear extends to Honey as well', But if a dog is scared of rid- ing in a car what must it be for a horse to travel by aeroplane? In the paper today there was a picture of a horse being taken off a plane at Mallon. I wonder how they fasten ed its safety belt when the plane came down for a landing! Heavy passenger traffic to shrines in Quebec and Ontario is forecast for this summer by II. J. Nevin, Canadian National Railways gen- eral passenger agent, who said here that present surveys indicate pil- grimages will be on a larger scale that last year. Plans are now being made to operate CN l CN R special trains front Montreal and Quebec City to the Martyr's Shrine at Midland, Ont., where ceremonies will be held to mark the tricentenary of the martyrdom of the Jesuit mission- aries. Another anniversary, the 299th year since the founding of the Shrine of Ste. Anne de lleaupre in Quebec, will be celebrated this summer and thousands of pilgrims are expected to attend from Canada and the United States. During July more than 1500 pi!- gritns will travel from Sherbrooke and Coaticook to the Shrine at Cap - de -la -Madelaine; and many hun- dreds from Montreal are planning visits to the Gaspe shrine of Our Lady of Mount Cartmel during the same month. Catty Stuff Miss Gertrude Charny loved birds and decided to do somethig about it: She organized the Friends of the Birds Inc., acid launched a cam- paign against the predatory cat. Year after year, the elderly Chicago woman stalked the hal's of the State House in Springfield, lobbying for a bill which world impose a $1 fine on cat owners who permitted their pets to run at large. Last month, Miss Chantey smiled like a canary that had swallowed a cat when her anti -feline bill, al- ready passed by the State Senate, carte up in the lower house, As each "Aye" was cast, Miss Charny applauded loudly. The tally 87-31 for the birds. But the legislature thus handed Gov. Adlai L, Stevenson an explo- sive pile of birdseed, Wood he sign the anticat bill, or heed the 250,000 cat owners in Chicago alone and veto it? The Washington corres- pottdcnl, Bascom 'Timmons, who owns 29 cats, promised to see that Stevenson was elected President if he vetoed the bill. Busy with his budget message, the governor, who himse'f keeps dogs, sheep, birds and a cat on his Libertyville farm, tem- porarily ducked the question. Even his pert, pretty wife refused to com- ment herself. Asked if Stevenson was as cat -lover or a bird -lover, she said apprehensively: "That's a delicate issue. We'd lose either the bird vote or the cat vote." Ob- viously, Miss Charny's ornitholo- gical passion put the governor of Illinois in a real quandary. Too Much A good little girl was hurrying to school in a state of extreme agita- tion. "Please God, don't let me be late," she murmured as the school hell began to ring in the distance. At that moment she tripped over a stone and fell flat. "Please, God," she exclaimed in an injured voice, as she got up and dusted herself, "1 didn't say 'posh'!"

Of course, it is ex- tremely unwise to paint "green" plaster until it has been properly treated, but even plaster which has been in place for some considerable time may "burn through" a paint job unless the surface is correctly prepared. The first thing to do then is to neutralize the lime in the plaster, Apply a coat of zinc sulphate solu- tion, made by adding four pounds of ainc sulphate Crystals to one gallon of water and stirring until the crys- tals are all dissolved, Before this solution is applied, however, any rough portions of the plaster should be given a good brushing with a stiff brush or broom to re- move all loose sand particles. Let the job stand for two or three days following application of the zinc sulphate solution to give the chem- icals sufficient time to neutralize the lime. Then, after the surface has been thoroughly dusted, it will be ready to receive a pruner -sealer - coat oil paint. Two fathers were discussing the upbringing of chi'dren.
