SlXBITC
To a greater extent than most
athletes, wrestlers have their ups
and downs, both professionally and
financially. Right now, we are happy
to say, some three thousand or so
huge men actively engaged in the
wrestling game are looking forward •
to their most profitable season in
20 years. And that "we are happy
to say" was not written with fingers
crossed' or tongue in cheek either,
as we are extremely fond of pro-
fessional grapplers, both individually
and as a class, even though we
seldom get aropnd to seeing them
in action these days,
* * *
Test `a few years back you could
count the profitable wrestling
centres in Canada and the United
States on your fingers, and have a
few left over at that. But now'
crowds of cash customers number-
ing from 10,000 to 15,000 are not
unusual, even in comparatively
small towns.
* *
The principal reason for this sud-
den outburst of popularity seems to
be television -- for video viewers, •
who not only get a closeup picture •
of the grimaces and contortions, but
also an intimate earful of the groans
and grunts, have gone for wrestlers
in a large manner; and it is reported
Turnabout` When photo-
graphers lifted up.. in the White
House to snap President Tru-
man opening the annual Christ-
mas Seal Drive, the President
pulled out this miniature
camera and focused it on the
cameramen. "I can really tgke
care of you fellows now,' he
said,
that the perfumed fan mail received
by some of the more horrendous
performers is coating to equal that
of a popular moaning baritone or
tearful tenor, radio variety.
* * *
Feature writers for some of the
big -circulation magazines have been
taking the wrestlers apart and try-
ing to find out what makes them
tick -- the latest of these being Sam
Boal, in the New York Sunday
Times magazine, Mr, Boal's picture
of the wrestlers themselves is
neither intimate or very revealing,
"He studied", the editorial blurb
states, "wrestlers at ringside and
over television at a number of pri-
vate and public houses," And this,
you may take it from one in a posi-
tion to know, is no method at all
of getting the real low-down on the
wrestler as an individual,
* *
However, some of Mr, Boal's
observations are of considerable
interest. "A wrestling show doesn't
reveal a great deal about wrestlers,"
he states, "but it does reveal a very
great deal about the 'audience,
People burst out in real anger as
the villain of the piece apparently
is crunching the hero's neck to bits.
Women who would normally be as
and cry out wild curses at wrestlers,
gentle as lambs, shake their fists
Others mutter at them as they enter
and leave the ring, And in homes,
families sit before their TV sets,
completely enchanted." '
* * *
Yet how, Boat wants to know,
could anyone over the age of 12
believe in such a figure as Gorgeous
George with his platinum hair,
scarlet and golden robe, his English
butler and the atomizer with which
his corner is hygienically sprayed
before the show? Or the Gorilla,
who is wheeled to the ring • in an
enormous cage whose bars he rattles
with roars of tortured rage? Or the
wrestler billed as the Bat, whose
wrestling technique consists in
flailing his arms up and down like
wings and who appears to be about
to stick the blood of his victims,
as a vampire Is supposed to do?
* * *
The article also mentions Mute
Mike, who purports to be deaf and
dumb and signals to the referee in
deaf-and-dumb language, and points' --
helplessly at his mouth to indicate
that he cannot howl in protest at
the terrible agony his opponent is
causing him. Also "Mr. America",
a nobly- handsome youh, now the
reigning favorite with the bobby
Boxers, who swoon when they meet
him, Just as they once did on en
countering Frankie Sinatra or Mel
Tonne. * * - *
Boal tells of the two questions
c. ntinually put to tvrestlers by their
fans - then, himself, tries to give
the answers, the latter making
well, about as much sense as' most
stuff n'ritten about wrestlers. ' The
two questions are: Does all that
punishment really hurt? -- and-. is
every wrestling match fixed?
* * *
In general, those dolorous moans
Coming from a . wrestler are not
caused by pain, any more than the
moans of an actor playing Richard
the Third are caused by real pain.
If either wrestler or actor suffered
as much as he appears to be doing,
neither could last a week, That
ghastly thump the audience hears
when a wrestler is thrown over
another wrestler's head, doesn't kill
him, as alight seem certain, On the
other hand, it isn't exactly a caress.
The wrestler simply knows how to
bit the deck, His feet bit first, mak-
ing the principal noise, and then his
shoulders hit,
* * *
His head never hits, unless he
makes a mistake, in which case he
could be seriously hurt, As it is,
a broken ankle from just such a .
performance is by no means un-
common. The fact is that if a
wrestler picked an untrained man
from the audience and hurled `hint
to the floor, maybe that man would
get up again and maybe he wouldn't,
Wrestlers do get broken ribs, lacer-
ated ears and other. wounds, but
these may be regarded as industrial
accidents,
* * *
En general, wrestlers do not inten-
tionally hurt each outer, They don't
try to, moreover, because they can't
afford to. Some wrestlers may work
as many as six. shows a week, so it
stands to reason they have to be
reasonably certain they will wind up
a given show more or less in one
piece, Some of the wrestling holds
which appear positively gruesome •
are almost gentle. And if, by chance,
a wrestler is really being hurt by
another, he uses a signal that is
universal in the business, The
squeezes his opponent's arm or leg
with two rapid notions and the
painful'hold is relaxed instantly,
* * *
We went along pretty much in
agreement with Mr, Boal so far in
his article, but when he attempted
to answer his second question, we
thought he skidded slightly off the
rails, "The only honest answer to
the question, "Are all wrestling
bouts fixed?" he says, is 'Yes and
no.' Many wrestling matches are
planned, but some are not, • The
wrestlers in the preliminary bouts
get the sante money, win, lose or
draw. Often they are told who is
going to win, and specifically by
what hold."
* * *
Then he goes on: "It is in the big
bouts, with names that draw crowds,
that the fixes do not apply so gen-
erally. This is not a moral Issue,
but an economic one. A case in
point is Primo Carrera, who up
until a few months ago, Blade so
much money out of wrestling that
he cannot, be compared with any-
one else, Carnera was such a suc-
cess because of his size and also
because of his skill, He drew huge
crowds and naturally shared much
more of the profits than a less pop-
ular man. As of May 20, 1949, Car-
nera had never lost a show, He
had won 321 bouts, an unequalled
record, On that night, however,' he
wrestled with Antonio Rocca - the
current sensation of the sport. Rocca
beat him, Since that time Camera's
earnings have decreased consider-
ably because fans know he was
beaten."
* * *
But in his next paragraph Mr,
Boal shows signs that 'he should
have - in order to get a real under.
standing of wrestling -got a mite
closer to the core of matters than
a tetevison screen or even a ring-
side. "It was obviously to Camera's
disadvantage to lose. Yet he did
lose and it coat him a lot of money,
Would Carnera have taken orders
from somebody to lose when he
knew that his position as'a drawing
card would give him the power to
.refuse?"
* * *
Mr, Boal obviously thinks that
the answer to this is a loud and
ringing "No", We would hate to
disillusion even a sports expert, but
we might Just gently hint to him
that Primo Carnrera besides being
a wrestler, knows tine value of a
dollar. And he knows that plenty
of bouts, even at a reduced figure
per appearance, will buy far more
macaroni and spaghetti than sitting
idly on the sidelines, getting no
bouts at all.

Playing In Japan -Frank "Lefty" O'Doul, manager of the San
Francisco Seals baseball team, now touring Japan, shakes hands
with Prince Akihito and Prince Masahito before a Tokyo game
with the Eastern All -Stars of the Japan Professional League.
The Seals, who have won every game of their exhibition, glint
out the Japanese club 4-0.
Seeing. Triple? -Sister Cloeta, first -grade teacher at St. Leo's School, thought site was seeing
triple when these youngsters took their seats in her classroom,. They are Donald, Jimmy and
David Bartley, triplet sons of Mr. and "Mrs. David Bartley, Now Sister Cloeta can tell theta
apart because they usually wear jackets with their names printed on them,
I-fandmade' candles, well -shaped
and delicately scented, make charm-
ing gifts for friends as well as con-
versation pieces for your own table
ornamentel,' It's easy to snake theta,
with a simple outlay of materials,
many of which you can find around
the house, ,
Probably the first thing you think
of is that paraffin you had left over
from canning. Well, it can be used,
but is too often disappointing, It
takes a good• shape, but it difficult
to color, and the candles made from
it are brittle and easily broken,
Odds and ends of used candles,
on the other hand, are excellent,
They can be melted together, or
each color can be kept separate.
Whittle them into small pieces and
remove the wicks, or if you prefer
just drop them into the melting can
and remove the wicks later, If you
do this, though, cut off, the burned
part of the wick first, so that it
won't make your wax dirty.
Mutton Tallow and Beeswax
Mutton tallow makes ' excellent
candles, Mix it with a little bees-
wax to give the candles strength
and to prevent too -fast burning,
't'o make hard tallow candles, try a
batch made with 10 ounces of mut-
ton tallow, four ounces of beeswax,
two ounces of alum, and one-half
ounce of camphor,
Or If you live where you can get
bayberries; by all means cook up a
batch of candles, Bayberry candles,
with their pungent old-fashioned
fragrance, so familiar to the early
settlers, are especially appropriate
et Christmas.
Gather beries, clean them of twigs
and stents and put them into boiling
water. As the wax from the berries
floats to the ,surface, skint it off and
place in a can, Melt' again (over
hot water) and allow impurities to
settle), Pour the clear wax into yet
another can and use it as you would
tallow, or, if you like, unix it with
tallow.
Add a Bit of Scent
Other candles can be scented with
liquid incense; or a few finely crush-
ed sage leaves to§sed into the melt-
ed wax or tallow will give your fin-
ished candles a delightful fragrance
when burned,
Candles may be colored by add-
ing dry, paint to the melted swot,
Or you can use a drop of vegetable
coloring, or even a tiny bit front
a water -color tube,
1Vicks are important in achieving
a steady, bright light, `You can get
brilliance and, strength if you'll dip
your, wicks in turpentine and let
them dry thoroughly before using,
Small wicks are best, You'can make
wicks of ordinary twine, or you can
buy candle wicking in the dine
.store. Use this single, or for a nice
spiral candle double the wick and
twist it, and have the wax very hot
when dipping the -candle,
Always melt your wax or tallow
over hot water. Use any saucepan
for the water, and use tin food cans
for melting wax, Set the melting
can Into the pan of water, Or if
you prefer, set a pie tin over the
saucepan of water and put the melt-
ing can on that,
Once the wax is thoroughly melt-
ed, It is ready to work with. To
let it get any hotter is unnecessary
and, if left too long, It may flare
up, It should never, never smoke,
J'Iow Ready to Mold
Once the wax is melted, color
and scent added, you are ready to
make the candles. If you are mak-
ing molded candles, prepare the
ntolds before melting the wax, and
set them in a clear space that leaves
you room to pour without spilling.
The heavy -set candles so popu'
lar for Thanksgiving and Christmas
can be made of cardboard milk car-
tons.
Cut the top off square. With a
large needle punch a hole in the
exact center of the bottom. Tie a
knot in your wick and thread it up
through this hole, At the top, fasten
it securely around a pencil or small
stick which will fit across the top
of the carton and hold the wick
reasonably taut, Pour the wax. in
all at once and when the candle is
thoroughly cool, put into the refrig-
erator for a couple of hours, 'Then
cut off the bottom knot, undo tate
wick at- the top, and peel off the
cardboard.
Colored red or green for Christ-
mas, these are lovely, And you can
make then} any size your like by cut
-
dug the, cartons down,
Candles' for` low table center •
-
pieces can be molded in muffin tins,
Or lovely petaled candles to float
on a dish of water can be made by
using individual jelly molds, Both.,
these candles need a core, Just pour ,
your wax, then take one of those
ends of used candle front which
you've cut the burned part of the
wick, and this this into the center of
the mold, It should be even with
the surface of the melted wax, This
will provide a sturdy ,core and make
the candles burn evenly, Let "coni,
then set into the refrigerator until
the 'candles loosen ar.d can be re-
moved easily front the ntolda,`
For Dipped Candles
For dipped candles, tie one. end
of your wick to a 'pencil or stick,
Fasten a ental!` weight to' the other
end. You can tie more, than one
wick to a pencil if .your can of
melted wax is wide enough to ac-
comodate them - as they grow into
candles. The can, of course, must
be deep enough to make the candles
the height you desire, For dipping
one at a time, you can use narrow
cans, such as, soup cans,
Dip the wick Into melted wax
briefly, If you are working in a cool
room, It may not be necessary to
dip the candles in cold water to
harden, but otherwise, have a can
of cold water ready, and dip the
candles afar each wax dipping,
Repeat until candles are the'thick-
ness you desire. You can utak: these
candles the+sapte color all through,
or drop your color into the wax for
your final dipping, which will give
the candles a colored coat,
For dripless candles, add a very'
small amount of stearic acid to the
wax for the last dipping. When
they are the right size, dipped can-
dles can be hung from the edge of
a table 'until thoroughly cold, Then
store in the refrigerator for awhile,
'Use Stttall Cans
There will be wax left over from
the dipped candles, Put It into tom-
ato soup or shrimp or even baby
food cans. Lower into it a length
of used candle, or a short hand -
dipped candle, Let harden, cool in
the refrigerator, and remove` from
the can. Using a paring knife, carve
into any appropriate shape, stich as •
snowballs, Christmas trees, snow
men, little houses or churches; or
for Thanksgiving, turkeys, oryel-
low pumpkins, With care, you can
get some very good results. When
the candles are carved, you can
dip again for smoothness or if the
color is imperfect.
If you like unusual things and
enjoy leaving a hand in them your-
self, you'll like making candles in
your kitchen!

Fishing Parson
Forgot Funeral
Older people who remember the
country doctor of half a century
ago can tell strange stories of un-
usual characters,
When Dr. Harry Roberts, fam-
ous in London's East End, bought
his firit practice at Hayle, Corn-
wall, his nearest colleague was an
oldish man who, when called at
night to remote confinement, would
have his horse taken out and
stabled if he found things were not
moving quickly, remove his boots
and coat, and get into bed beside
the patient to finish his night's
sleep in peace, telling the nurse to
wake him when anything was
doing!
Doctor's Horseba4k Visit
A former doctor in Roberts'
practice had been a very fat man
who rode a heavy roadster horse,
The narrow, steep staircases of
many of the little stone cottages
of .his patients presented a problem
which he would solve by tiding to
the front door and shouting up the
stairway; "'Morning, Charles, how
are you this morning? Hold out
your hand." Then, with his arum
full -stretch up the stairs, he'd put
the end of his riding whip on the
patient's wrist and pretend to feel
his pulse with it. "All right, Doing
nicely," he'd say. "I'll took in again
in a week or so," Then off he'd go,
the visit ended,
Witchcraft Wonder
There were' "white witches" still
in those parts, including an old man
who charmed warts and cured sick
cattle, Dr, Roberts' housemaid had
' a crop of warts on her, hands that
made 'her miserable, and he tried
every remedy he could think of,
unsuccessfully, At last, in despera-
tion, she said she was going to the
white witch to have them charmed
away, She was quite welcome to,
he told her; much good might it do
her, Next morning, she hadn't one
wart, nor did they ever reappear,
Among other local stories in
Miss Winifred Stamp's excellent
biography of Roberts, is one of a
St, Ives curate who was helping to
harvest a phenomenal haul of pil-
chards at Porthminster Bay, Sud
• deny at lunch, he exclaimed; "Good
Lord, I've forgotten 'old Mrs,
Baragwaneth's funeral. Two hours
ago," He tore up the streets to the
cemetery, to find the mourners sit-
ting in a row like crows on the wall
with the coffin behind them oti the
grass.
"Bless 'ee, my dear," said the
chief mourner, "you've no cause to
be put out, We hadn't anything
else to do; and as for the poor soul
beneath, she don't know nawthen

Socialism Comes
Mighty High
It may be too much to hope that
the Socialist doctrinaires will ever
be willing or able to comprehend
the facts. But there are a few about
the results of .their nationalization
schemes in Britain that should make
thelia think,
The nationalized coal industry
both in 1947 and 1948 failed to
reach the modest targets set for it,
After two years in which the
workers worked in "their own" pits,
output per ratan was 30 tons less
than in 1939 despite important ad-
vances in utechinization,
In 1948 absenteeism was 11,6%,
In 1939 it wa`s 6,9%.
Despite the frantic recruiting pro-
gram the 1948 target was missed by
24,000, men and during the past half
of 1949 the total number employed
in the industry fell by 4,000.
In the first years of nationaliza-
tion the railways lost. £25 millions.
In three years, ;civil aviation lost
%30 millions,
In the first year of nationaliza-
tion, cable and wireless profits were
21,7 million, But in the immediate-
ly preceding period under private
operation, profits had been £3.5
millions,
• Since electricity was nationalized
in 1948 the price has risen in many
areas 15-20% and for some there
is an additional substantial sur-
charge.
There's part, of the British re
• cord. Yet the determination to push
the iron and steel bill seems as firm
as ever, and the Socialists cling to
their gospel that government must
run everything.
Surely somewhere in the Socialist
party of Britain and Canada is a
tnlnd which can comprehend the fol•
ly of their course, Have they no sten
of sense and courage?
000D ADVICE
"1 can't quite diagnose your
case," said the doctor. "[ think it
must be drink."
"That's OK, doctor. I know just
how you feel," said the patient. "I'll
mine back when you're sober."
For a long time, 1 have 'been
wondering why £enewspapers,
when, kite name so of w a little-known
town or village appears in the news,
fall to mention what county or dis-
trict it is in, or near what big
town it is located. Doing this, 1
believe, adds a whole lot to the in-
terest of the readers.
* • *
This thought cane to mind when
I read an item recently to the effect
that Frank Rick, of Trout Creek.
Ont., for the second time in three
years, had copped the championship
potato award, given each year to
the farmer who not only grows the
best 'Murphies," but also has the
largest yield,
* * *
"Where in heck is Trout Creek?"
1 said to tnyself—a confession of
shocking. ignorance, I suppose, but
anyway, I didn't know, so looked
it up, Well/ it's in Parry Sound
County and when the 1941 census
was taken, it had a population of
370.
So that's that, and now back to
Frank Rick, whose success as a
pomme de terrier (ouch!) started
all this, Besides a handsome trophy
Rick won himself the nice packet
of $250 in cash, The contest is
judged on yield per acre, the qual-
ity, grade and marketability of the
spuds, selected exhibit plus a score
for cooking quality,
* * *
Rick, or at least his potatoes,
passed all these hurdles with flying
colors, garnering a total of 519
points. His nearest competitor was
14 points' below this, Second prize
of $125 went to Dave C, Hackett,
of Cochrane, Ont., while third
moneywas taken by W. A, Vail
& Son, of Denfield, in Middlesex
County,
* * *
Rick was particularly happy
about winning again, after losing
out last year, This year was an
unusually dry one and therefore
potato growing required more at-
tention than usual. During July,
he had no rain, "If we had only
a little rain during this hot mouth,
I am sure that I could have gotten
another 100 bushels off my acre,"
he said. As it was, he got 836
bushels ,per acre, a very high aver-
age considering conditions of the
past year.
r 4' *
Since Rick has entered into the
contest, he finds that building up
.soil for potatoes results in better
crops of grain, hay and pastures
in succeeding years, As his soil
is a sandy loam itexture, he has
therefore obtained good cash crops
as well as saving his soil.
* * *
Now here's something which,
while it may not exactly belong ;n
r
a farm column, still might interest
a whole lot of folk living on farms
—and some of the "city stickers"
as well.
Many home owners consider that
sheet asbestos paper applied as in-
sulation to the bright acetal pipes
of their furnace improves their heat
carrying capacity, However, re-
search work has proven that the
heat loss is 62% greater 'with one
thickness of 12 -pound asbesto;
paper covering a bright tin pipe
than when the same pipe is left
uncovered, This test applies to
bright tin warm' air leader pipes
through ' which air is flowing at
relatively low velocity under a grav-
ity system—the gravity system be-
ing by far the most common sys-
tent of central heating in use in
%Canada today.
In order to demonstrate the in-
efficiency of a layer of ` asbestos
paper as a heat ' insulator, tests
were ,run in which the number of
thicknesses of paper was increased
until the hent loss became less than
the loss through a bare, bright tis
specimen, Eight, thicknesses of 12 -
pound asbestos paper were applied
before the desired result was ob-
tained. The impractical features of
such a method of insulating ars,
of course, evident. The conclusion
drawn was that the use of a thin
layer of asbestos paperlued
around` warm air furnace leader
pipes should be abandoned.
* * *
For the average, up-to-date grav-
ity warns air furnace installation, a
practical method Is merely to seal
the joints of, all pipes with two-inch
asbestos strips in order to make
the system "'closed and therefore
dust -tight, The return air side, in-
cluding joist panning if used,
should be stripped in a like man-
ner,' It la pointed out, however,
that leader pipeswhich might be
exposed to the chilling effect" of
basement windows, or which are
extremely long, or run through
cold spaces, should be adequately
insulated -a 'minimum of, three
layers of corrugated abesetos being
recommended in such cases.

•-•A Little Knowledge
A Complete•Story
By Jim Kjelgaard
NOBODY IN the Stannigy ever
gets sick. Every time I've -'been
there i've delivered a baby, or set
a broken leg, or patched up some
young hellion who thought he
could ride an • outlaw horse, or
dug bullets out of somebody else.
It's a wild country settled by wild
people, Some times I get so mad
at those cattle men that I wish
they'd all shoot each other. And
then ,at other times , , ,
In spite of their hair-trigger tem-
pers, and their tendency to express
those tempers with a gun, they
have their good qualities. I've
known everybody in the Stannigy
for forty years. I guess I've de-
livered half of them.
On this trip I pulled up in front
of old Jab Cressfield's ranch house.
The house is built on top of a hill,
and there are folks who say Jeb
built it there sb he could look all
ways for those who'd cotne gun-
ning for him, Jeb himself, as
as strong, gnarled, and as talkative,
as any tree that grows on the
Stanningy ridges, awaited me on
the porch. "Come in, Doc," he
said -
I WENT in through the•- kitchen,
and if there was one person wait-
ing there, there must have been
thirty.: The women were either
talking or crying in one part of
the room, and the men weren't
saying anything at all in another
part. Every family in the Stannigy
was represented.. Tight-lipped as
turtles, seven of the eight Cross-
field boys sat in seven chairs that
they had tilted against the wall.
When those boys were the prop-
er age -about six -they each got
a six-shooter Now ' they could
knock the centre out of a. silver -
dollar at fifty yards. It seemed sort
of ominous to me because young
Bud Cressfield was missing.
Old Jeb ducked 'under the door -
.way that led to the next room, and
I found out why Bud wasn't with
Itis brothers, He lay on a cot with
his trousers still on and his shirt
off, and I didn't have to look twice
at the blood-stained patch of guaze
on his clfest •to know what had
happened,
This was an old, old story,.. one
that, off and on, I'd been reading
in the Stannigy • for forty years.
Bud Cressfield had been some-
where, Maybe it was a. dance, may
be any place at all, Anyhow, he'd
got into an argument :with some
other hothead and the'd settled it
with guns.
The story from now on had to
follow a familiar pattern. Bud's
seven brothers, and old. Jeb, would
find out who'd shot Bud, Then,
naturally, one of them would go
pick hint off. His male relatives
would feel obliged' to shoot a few
Cressfields, Before the thing was
settled five or six mets could die,
It was enough to make anybody
mad, and sick too.
I took the bandage off and
looked at the bullet hole. It was
harmless -looking, not half as big
as the end' of my finger. Well, the
size of the hole snakes no difference.
1 found it, and got up, mad.
"This," and • I raised my voice
so the people in the other room
could hear, "is what you call tnur•
derl"

Jeb Cressfield's insides must have
twisted when I said that. He loved
his sons, but . when 1 told him
Bud was going to die he didn't
even blink. His adam's apple
worked a couple of times, and that's
all except that his voice might have
Been a little strained when he said,
"Is there anything at all you
can do for hit?, Doc?"
"Nothing!„
Of course you know the
caliber bullet you took out of !him?"
"Yes!" and I was still Itiouting.
"1 know!"
"Well, doe?"
"Look," 1 said, "I've . been cont'
ing into this district and patching
you damn cowmen up when you*
tried to kill each other off, for
forty yearsl I'm damned good and
sick of it!! One of . two Mien shot

I'm going to- the police with this
bullet and with what I know! The

the neck until he's dead! Maybe
that will make you fools think twice
before you start any more of your

I• looked up to see the seven
Cressfield boys, one behind the
other,: staring at me with hungry •
eyes. Old Jeb's adain's apple bob

"That's mighty strong talk, Doc."
"Maybe you think you can do
something about it!" - I wouldn't
have dared talk that way if every

me going to the police." •

odern Etiquette
By Roberta Lee
Q!. What should ,two persons do
if introduced to each other for the
second time?
A. If the occasion is a formal one,
they should both acknowledge the
introduction and not attempt any
explanations that would be embar-
rassing to the person making the
introduction, However, if the oc-
casion is an informal one, it is all
right to recall the previous meeting,
Q. Is it necessary to send a gift
when one is invited to a church
weddi ,t, but not to the reception?
A. In this case, it is not necessary,
Only an invitation to the reception
would require a"gift,
Q. Should one who Is in mourn-
ing send Holiday greetings to in-
timate friends?
A, Yes, if 'one; wishes' to do so,
However, it is not imperative, nor
should it be expected,
Q. Is it proper for a bride-to-be
to call her friends by telephone to
request that they serve as brides-
maids at her wedding?
A. No; it is much better if she
calls personally upon each of her
friends for this purpose. If this is
not possible, as in the case of nut -
of -town friends, then friendly notes
of request should be Writlen by
hand.
Q. Ie it necessary for a man to
rise when being, introduced to‘ 'an-
other man, and also to shake hands?
A. Yes to bothquestions, unless,
of course, they are so far apart that
it would be awkward to shake
hands,. '
Q, When invited to a dinner party
in a restaurant or hotel, does one.
have the privilege of choosing one's
own meal?
A,.No; the host or hostess orders
the meal in advance, and the guests
eat what is placed before them.
To bleach tea towels, 1 drop
pieces of lemon peel into the water
when I am boiling the towels. The
lemon peel gives a wonderfully
fresh, clean appearance to the
towels.

When washing delicate china and
glass -ware, fold a thick Turkish
towel and lay- it in' the bottom of
your dishpan. It will save many an
accident and ease the wear and
tear on your best and favorite
tableware.
* * *
Before you begin to iron or press
your own blouses and lingerie.
sprinkle a few drops of y'bur fav
orite cologne on the ironing board,
It will leave your clothes delight-
fully fragrant, and you'll enjoy it,
too, as you iron.
* * *
Powder pulls offer no end or
service at our house. I keep one
handy in the kitchen near the can
of silver polish. It's perfect for
applying cleaner to dishes, mirrors,
and silver. And, a powder puff dip-
ped in cleaning fluid is just the
thing for erasing spots on, woolen
garments, it works better for me
than a sponge or a cloth, Also, give
a clean, rough -surfaced puff a try
in dusting troublesome lint from
dark wool clothing. •
* * *
Need 'a brightening touch for
your kitchen walls? This idea drew
allkinds of compliments when I
tried it recently.. Paint a pair .of
worn or discarded. phonograph re-
cords to accent your color scheme;
add an attractive decal to each:
and hang' by : drilling a small hole
at the top or 'gluing an inconapie•
nous clout or cardboard loop on the
underside.
e * *
When bar soap has dissolved to
a point where it is impractical and
annoying to handle, drop it into a
little cloth bag about 5 Inches
square, This will be ever so handy
in doing the dishes or making suds
for your laundry,
•*
Sew a ring to the top of your
mixer cover and hang it from a
small curtain hook, screwed into the
base of your kitchen cabinet. This
will keep It helpfully out of your
way while your, mixer's in use,
yet right at your finger tips for
easy replacing.
Whip it Up
Evaporated milk may be whip•
ped, even more easily han some
fresh cream if treated the following
way: When a recipe calls 'for evap-
orated milk, whipped, place the can
saucepan, cover with cold
water, and bring just to a tumbling,
boil.' When cold, it will whip just
as easy .as fresh cream.
It is interesting to note that this
suggestion was tested by Miss
Farmer's famous School of Cook-
ery in Boston, which reported that
it not only worked beautifully, but
increased the volume of the milk
after it was whipped.

much of its strength and vitality,
Ind the rich quality of its democ-
racy,
emoc racy, to the blending of racial and
cultural heritages from many lands.
It is a matter of pride to all
Canadians that so many races,
without 'sacrificing their national
characteristics, have united them-
selves into one great citizenship-
the Canadian Family.
Ever 'since the days of Jacques
Cartier, famous French explorer of
the 16th Century, Canadians of
French descent have played a
leading role in moulding Canada's
destiny. Today, French Canadians
are air largest racial group
representing almost one third of
Canada's population.
Distinguished in the arts and
sciences and outstanding in their
chosen professions, they have made
a major contribution to Canada's
progress while their thrift and
devotion have earned for ':les
Canadiens"• the wholesome respect
of their fellow citizens.
