Clarke After hearng what the two-day w:ndstorn did in other parts of Ont. at io I don't think have much to complain about in this district, We had little more to put up with than a certain amount of inconvenience and unpleasantness. Friday night the power was'off in town but ours was still on, But ycu can be quite sure we had candles ready—just in case. Saturday morning , ah, that was a different story! The power went off, telephone went dead—and the kitchen stove smoked, Partner made one attempt to light the fire but the wind blew more smoke back into the rooms than it carried away, So we did without a fire. At that time the power was still on but we had a feeling it might give up the ghost at any time, With that possi- bility in mind I made coffee well ahead of time on the electric stove. Half an hour before breakfast—off went the power) Of course electric burners stay hot foi a long time but even so the coffee would naturally be getting a little cooler all the time, "Well, what's a thermos for?" I said to myself, So I got out the thermos. Result—hot coffee for breakfast, We had boiled eggs too. I managed that by dropping the eggs into the cooling water and leaving until needed, On • the whole It is rather fun, don't you think, just figuring out how to keep things on an even keel during an emer- gency? Of course we still have an ollstove which I could have used but I didn't fancy the job of standing out in, the back porch fixing the oilstove—not with a 70 mile wind Offing in through the cracks and knot -holes, During the forenoon the wind be - same stronger than ever—and cold- er—shifting a little towards the north, But that was better for the kitchen stove so we tried lighting the fire again—and this time we were not smoked out, That gave me a chance to get dinner. The hydro was still off and did not come on until 3:30—eight hours without it 4702 SIZES 12--20 41441. New!

It was certainly an awful wind. We wondered if the doors on the . barn ani. driving shed would siand the strain, even with extra bracing. But they did—and so, except for a few shingles rip,,ed off the barn roof; some fences knocked around a bit; branches of trees strewn here and there, we really suffered very little damage from the storm at all. Need I Jay we are very thankful? I hope you people who read this column were equally fortunate, There is something very frighten- ing about a high wind, isn't there? You feel so powerless against it, and, except for information given out by the weather bureau, you never know how bad it will be; how long it will last; nor who, or what, will be hurt before it is over. Important plans are shaping up in the world today—of far greater int portance than any freakish weather that comes our .way—and yet how much more attention we give to the weather! It has even stolen the show from egg, price discussions, Imagine thatt One thing is certain—farmers may not he in the Honey these days, but they are certainly in the news. The outlook for fanners generally is not particularly cheering just now. But this much we can remetnber to our comfort Since the depression days' of the '30'a we have come a long way. Better prices since that time have given farmers a chance to sort of catch up with themselves, Mortgage:, have been paid off; new machinery purchased; livestock built up and unproved; tractors have taken the place of horses; modern conveniences have been installed in many farm hotnes; and farmers, on the whole, are working shorter hours. Altogether the farm family's standard ot living has been raised considerably—isn't that as it should be? Farmers in Canada are not peas- ants, many of them come from well educated families with a cultural background dating back many gen- erations. Men of this type fartn be- cause they love the soil; they like working with and improving their livestock; growing things and being close to Nature. But very few of thein are satisfied with a low stan- dard of living, Because of better prices things changed considerably during the last decade. If the pre- sent level can be maintained there is less danger of young people leav- ing. the farm for ,jobr in the city, The- average farm provides them with a better home, a better living-7- and iving-and plenty of entertainment, if they want to take advantage of it, If another depression should cotne our way -don't take it for granted that it will—but if it does we are at least better equipped to meet it than we were in the '30's, The higher standard of living which we have attained in the interim might well be regarded as an addition to our working capital.

R, Barclay Warren - The First Gentile Church • Acts 11: 19-26; 13: 1-3 Golden Text; And the disciples were called Christians first in. Antioch. Acte 11;26 Persecution is often , a blessing. The believers at Jerusalem were compelled to scatter, but they took with them the Good News of Jesus Christ, Some of them were .natives of Cyprus and Cyrene and when they reached Antioch, they "spake unto the Greacians, preaching the 'Lord Jesus, And the hand of the Lord was with them; and a great nutnber believed, and turned unto the Lord," Barnabas, who had presented Saul to the Apostles, was despatched to Antioch. He is described as "a good man, and full of the Holy Ghost and of faith," The ministry of this type of matt would bless any church. He secured the help of Saul and together they ministered to the first Gentile Church. Here the .nauie "Christian" was first used, It was applied' to those Who had' become the term is used very loosely. The followers of Jesus Christ, To -day dictionary defines a Christian as a "person showing character gonsist- eat with Christ's teaching, of genu- ine piety.", if this were true of the approximately 98% of. Canadians which• the census calls Christians, how much better a country this ' woulek, be, A thriving church Is not self- satisfied but has a missionary vision. This was the case at Antioch, "The Holy Ghost said; "Separate me Nrnabat and Saul for the work whereunto I have called. then," Here was a Divine call, realized by the individuals called and by • the other leaders in the church, General McArthur has been calling for mis- sionaries for Japan, The church Is responding, but slowly. 0 that God' would find many like Barnabas, filled with the Holy Ghost, who will leave comfort and ease, to carry the glorious Gospel to those who sit darkness, Cripps' Quip "Are profits immoral?"

But of course you are not think- ing. To yield to a sudden infatu. ation (which must be purely physical) and desert your husband and little children, is a callow act unworthy of a wife and mother. I atm not unmindful of the emotional crisis that you face. A woman contented in her marriage meets a man who awakens a pas• sion so overwhelming that she is shocked of her accustomed ser- enity, flung into a whirlwind of sentimental reactions that , for years have lain dormant, Her husband becomes obnoxious to her, even her children appear only another obstruction to the con - ululation of her desires— And obsessed by the tumult within her, flings them 'off and goes her own way, * But which way will you go? * If this man had been more * than momentarily interested, he * would not have been silent all * this •time—unless he is too hon.. *.orable to pursue another man's * wife, If you turn to him now, he * will see you as a woman mad- * dened by passion, too unstable to * be trusted by any man,.

Cheating By High School Students Presents A Real Modern Problem • A high school graduate recently gave only .12 correct answers to 50 simple addition problems when she made..application fors job in a downtown .departtnent store, The personnel manager was puz- zled, 1-Iiglt school records ahowed that the girl's •grades 'were above average- and she was regarded as a good student, •' Further questigning of the girl by the personnel manager brought out the answer, Thq girt admitted that she .had "cheated" her way through high school, Poll Reveals Cheating in the classroom has long been a touchy problem ht high schools. A poll of 10,000' high school students revealed that more than 50 per cent of the youths had cheat - in one way or another in the class- room, There have been many attempts to curb - this problem and one of the most successful bus been the project carried on• by students and faculty at Fordson High School in suburban Dearborn, Students in each of Fordson's .36 social science classes selected a delegate. to represent them at a, student congress 'especially set up to' determine what could be done about cheating, The congress was split into small groups of five or six students, A ' general discussion of the cheating problem was carried on in each group, The delegates thein returned to their classrooms, where further dis- cussion was held, After compiling suggestions from these discussions, the congress then set up a definite program to curb cheating. The program was studied by the faculty and the final finishing touch- es added, It's this student cooper- ative job that has practically elim- inated cheating from Fordson High, The problem has been brought out in the open, teachers explain, and the student now feels that by help- ing to set up a corrective program he is helping himself, Delegates, in formulating their analysis of the problem, pointed out that there "Is a great deal of cheating going on" and that "much of the cheating goes on unbeknown to the teachers," The students then listed various . ways that Fordson youths were cheating, Sonic of t hese were; Copying answers from another student on tests or written work, Hearing or telling or, signalling answers to or from another student on tests or written work. Using notes or "ponies." Giving other students , higher grades than they should have had - when papers arc exchanged and corrected in class by students, Copy - other student's notes, homework or notebooks, Students in one class passing along answers or 'informa- tion about a test to students in another class who will be having the test later, Obtaining and using a copy of a test given by a teacher during a previous semester, Taking a copy of a test from a classroom before it is given, Changing marks In the teacher's gradebook when she is out'of the roost, Danger Signals Then the delegates .iletsd . the shortcomings of cheating, These.fn• eluded; *Cheating lowers a. student's sense - of honesty. Students don't learn as much when they cheat, Cheating de. velops attitudes and viewpoints which may cause the student troy, ble in later life. Cheating .hurts both parents and taxpayers, as stun. dents don't get the full measure of what school has to. offer, It is unfair to a student who doesn't cheat and gets low marks to st;e a student cheat and land on the honor roll. The final recommendations of the congress, which the school has put in effect to eliminate cheating, include: That more emphasis be placed on honor, and that the dishonesty of cheating be stressed, . That wheneve, a test is being given teachers should watch care- fully to prevent cheating, ' This would not only catch cheaters but prheno doP wantotect to ctheeatstudbut wthowhWray beestputt. on tin spot by his classt,tates, That the saute test should never be given to several classes. That papers *should never be ex- changed and corrected by students, That no student should be allow- ed to record grades in a grade book. ' That more thence type testi should be given, Work other than tests should be assignei and heavily considered for the final tnark in. a course, Blackout Art Shows Picture galleries throughout the world may soon be provided with specially blacked -out rooms ' in which visitors can view exquisitely coloured pictures now being painted by an entirely new process in Hol' land, Artists are producing these pictures with novel pigments which resemble the powders used for lin- Ing the tubes of fluorescent lamps.

It is a beautiful thing, and he doesn't want to spoil it, but little fingers get smudgy, and how is a child to enjoy his books if he is constantly warned to be careful? One answer to the problem is a set of slip covers made from the plastic fabric which is sold by the yard for making mattress protect- ors and other waterproof articles. Being transparent, It interferes very little with the enjoyment of brightly colored covers on storybooks, yet it offers fine protection. In snaking the slip covers, it has been found that a complete wrap- around is beat, from the inner edge of the front cover to the inner edge of the back cover, Cut it to extend about half an inch beyond while it is still on the book, as close to the edges of the book's own covers as you can manage, . Then slip it off and stitch, pre- ferably with nylon thread, com- pletely across the top and bottom, inside the basting stitches. By mak- ing it rather `small, and easing it on like a glove, you can get an al- most invisible skin-tight effect, Leave Quarter -Inch Seam After stitching, remove the bast- ing threads and trim the edges, leaving a quarter -inch seam, 'Titin right side out, and, bending the covers of the book back as far as they will go without being forced, begin to work the slip cover over both at once, Be sure to keep the seam toward the inside of the cov- ers. When it has been worked into place, you will find that the seam edges at the top and bottom of the back binding are stretched awk- wardly. Clip them as far as the stitching on either side of this sec- tion, and tuck them in. May Be Able To "Hear" Print It may soon be possible for the blind to "hear" print if the latest . experiments with radar are success- ful. Equipment has been designed which, it is claimed, would enable a blind person to read ordinary print more easily than Braille, A tiny beam of light, moving along the line of print, picks up re- flections from the letters and passes them into an apparatus which trans- forms them into sound, Each letter has a distinctive sound which is memorized by the blind operator, who, with practice, is able to read the printed word, This is just one of the many mar- vellous devices being perfected at %t.-Dunstan's, world famous organi- sation for aiding men and women blinded on war service, The number of -blinded ex -Servicemen under the care of St, Dunstan's is 1600 as a result of the First World War, and 1,200 as a result of the Second.

Either -verbally or by formal note, The request can hardly be refused, and one should consider it an honor to be asked to stand spon- sor for a child. * * * Q. When introducing a person to.a group of people, is it necessary to repeat his name to everyone in the group? A. Usually just once is sufficient. However, if •the group is rather large and there is a chance someone did not catch the name, it may be repeated. k * * Q. May a bride wear a white dress and a veil when being mar- ried in a magistrate's office? A, No. The traditional white is reserved for the church and hone weddings, She should wear her going -away suit. * * * Q, When a host or hostess is taking six or eight other persons to a restaurant, should the dinner be ordered in advance, or would it be better to let each person choose his own course? A. It is Hutch simpler to , order in advance. To have the waiter serve six or eight separate dinners would be very inconvenient. * •* * Q. If a bride wishes to wear her engagement ring during the wed- ding ceremony, on which finger should she wear it? A. On the third finger of her right hand. * 9 * Q. Is it proper to thank a wait- ress every time the serves one a dish? A. No; but one should acknowl- edge any special service, such as bringing an extra spoon or fork. • * * 0. Why is it necessary for the parents of the bridegroom -elect to call at the home of the bride? A. Because the girl is not wel- comed by the family until they do so. This call should be made just as soon as the news of the engage- ment has been received. ,• * * Q. Is "I know Miss Brown" the proper thingto say when being in- troduced to her for a second time? A. No. This sounds as if it were trouble to, make a second ackvow- ledgmen, Say, "I have already had the pleasure of meeting Mies Brown." * * * Q. When a man is making a busi- ness call, isn't it all right for him to place his hat and briefcase on the desk of the man with whom he is talking? A. No; he should keep these articles in his lap.

The tiny drops combine and fall as rain. In certain conditions, however— and these must be just right— ,snow-flaked are formed instead. The temperature must be below freezing, there must be water va- pour in the air, and also particles . of floating dust around which. the snow -crystals can form. Even so, it might be "too cold for snow," for when the. surface air is three degrees below freezing point the chances are five to one against snow forming, "As white as snow" is a common expression, yet snow is really color- less. If a flake is examined under a microscope it is seen to be clear transparent ice. But when lying in drifts on the ground the light that falls upon it is reflected in all direc- tions and creates a pure whiteness. "Health -giving snow" is another popular phrase, and there is some- thing in it. Scientists have proved that the purifying effect of falling snow ;upon the air is greater than that of a similar quantity of water falling as fain. "It is rarely that snow is quite dry," says the medical journal, the "Lancet," and thus it presents a more or less moist surface to both the soluble and suspended impur- ities of the air and so carries them to earth." Lighter Than Rain Snow is much lighter than rain, being aLout one-tenth the weight of an equal bulk of water, though this proportion varies according to the compactness of the snow, Sometimes It takes only six inches of snow to make one inch of water, but occa- sionally it may take thirty inches, A severe snowstorm with a hard frost is disastrous in a civilized country. The snow settles on the telegraph wires, freezes, and adds an enormous weight to the load the poles have to support, Then as the loaded wires are driven to and` fro by, the wind, they sway and either snap off their poles or drag theta out of the ground, "Warm" Snow Snow acts like a warn blanket. On one occasion in America it was found that there was a difference in temperature of 56 degrees . Fah- renheit between the cold snow at the surface and the warner snow seven inches down. This blanket effect explains why sheep buried beneath the surface often survive. In Africa, almost at the equator, there is a snowfield on Mount Kenya and another on Mount Kili- manjaro, There is a height in all latitudes, whether tropical or arctic, above which the snow never melts entirely at any season of the year, and this is called the snow -line. Scientists think it not. improbable that there is as much as a million cubic miles of snow and ice now an the land part of the earth, If this were melted and returned to the sea it would raise the ocean level about thirty feet. From The Pen Of ,1,...M, Barrie Prom Peter Put: When the first baby laughed for the first time, the laugh broke into a thousand pieces and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies, Whenever a child says "I don't believe in fairies," there's a little fairy somewhere that falls right down and dies, To die will be an awfully big adventure. From Sentimental Tommy; The gates of heaven are so easily found when we are little and they are always standing• open to . let children wander in. To be an artist is a great thing, but to be an artist and not know it is the most glorious plight in the world.

' 5T5 Re Unsatisfied Judgment Fund Fee Under an amendment to the Highway Traffic Act enacted in 1947, pro. vision was made for the creation of an Unsatisfied Judgment Fund out of which will be paid, in the manner prescribed, judgments forpersonal injuries and property datnage sustained by reason of the operation of motor vehicles, which cannot be collected,in the ordinary manner from the judgment debtors. -- The method prescribed for creating the Fund is the collection of a special fee, when required, from each person to ,'hom'is issued either an operator's or a chauffeur's licence. While this legislation has been in effect since the 1st of July, 1947, the Unsatisfied Judgment Fund Fee has been collected only since January 1st, 1949. Total fees collected for the Fund and repayments to the Fund from January 1st to December 31st, 1949, amounted to . $638,430,37 Judgments paid out of the Fund from July 1st, 1947, to December '31st; 1949, amounted to $630,644,03 As there is not now sufficient in the Fund to pay judgments for a period of a year, an Unsatisfied Judgment Fund Fee of 50c will be collected -from each person to whom ,is issued a 1950 operator's or chauffeur's licence.

Henley in rowing . or St. Andrews in golf; and that the doggy set knows that the best it can hope for there is the tough- est sort of competition anyway, so that actual figures don't make much difference. * * Anyway, when the Westminster throws open its doors at Madison Square Garden some time this month there are expected to be something like 2534 canines on hand; although, of course, in the interim some of then may have been laid low by high blood pres- sure, gout, distemper or even - perish the thought) -the snatching net of the dog catcher, At all events there promises to be an elegant sufficiency of dogs, and we are just as happy that we are not on the right cleaning staff of Madison Square, doomed to keep them com- pany through the long hours after everyone else has ' departed. As many of you are no doubt aware, just one lonely pooch can fill a whole neighborhood ' with heart- breaking wails, all by itself, .Ima- gine. 2500 or more of thein, all in full voice and all under one roofl A tight game between the Rangers and the Leafs, with both Conn Smythe and Lynn Patrick at the top of their form, wouldn't even come close, * * * But to get along with the serious business of the day, Offhand, and without doing any deep, research before giving your answer, just what breed of canine would you say is the most popular today? Ac- cording to the Westminster Show figures it's the Dachshund -the ldnd that somebody once described as "half a dog high, and a dog -and. a -half long," Last year the Boxers topped the Dachshunds by a mar- gin of three. But this time it's the other way around, Score -Dacha• bunds 152; Boxers 137. And if any reader would like to interpret this as a trend, showing which way the world is heading, it is O.K. with us, * * * • In case you don't keep abreast of such things, it seems that in the ti per brackets of Dogdotn they divide the entries not only into breeds but by classes as well. These divisions are WORKING DOGS; SPORTING DOGS; BOUNDS; TERRIERS, TOYS and NON• SPORTING; and there will be 648 Workers in the Westminster Show as compared to a mere 539 Terriers, which might alio Ind!- tate a trend. Or `something, * Now,. lest somebody should ac- tuee us of holding out vital- In- formation, we'll ldndly 'giveyou what the advertising experts call= a "break -down' of ithe various classes. And if you skip reading the next six paragraphs, you do so at your own peril, and we don't blame' you, * * * WORKERS: In this class you will find, if you look hard enough, Alaskan Malamutes; Belgian Sheep- dogs; Bouvlers des Flandres; Box- ers; Briards; Bullmastiffs; Collies; Dobermann Pinschers; ' German Shepherds; Great Danes; Great Pyrenees; Mastiffs; Newfoundlands; Old English Sheepdogs; Pulika; Samoyeded; Giant Schnauzers; Standard Schnauzers; Shetland Sheepdogs; Siberian Huskies; St, Bernards; Cardigan Corgis; Pem- broke . Corgis, * * * Among the TERRIERS there are Airedales; Bedlingtons; Border; Bullterrier (coldred) Bullterrier (white) -we hope they don't draw. the color line or they'll be hearing from Paul Robeson -Cairns; Dan - die Dinmonts; Smooth Fox Ter- riers; Wire Fox Terriers; Irish Terriers; Kerry Blues; Ldkelands; Lhasa Apses; Manchester Terriers; Norwich; Miniature Schnauzes; Scottish Terriers; Sealyhams; Skye Terriers; Staffordshire; Welsh Ter- riers; West Highland. Whites. * * * • " 'Tain't no business if he is a hound, you gotta quit kicking my dog around" was part of a song once -popular. Anybody attempting to do such booting nowadays would have quite a chore because, under the heading HOUNDS, these are listed; Afghans; Basenjis; Basset - hounds; 13 -inch Beagles; 15 -inch Beagles; Bloodhounds; Borzois; Coonhounds; Longhair Daschunds; Smooth Daschunds; Wire -hair Daschunds; Scottish Deerhounds; American, Foxhounds; Greyhounds; Norwegian Elkhound; Otterhounds; Salukis; Whippets; Irish Wolf- hounds. * * * We're not certain where they draw the line between the Work- ing Dogs and those of the Sport- ing Category; and right now we don't intend trying to find out. We do know, however, because it's right here in print before us, that among the' Sports there are Point- ers; German Shorthairs; Chesa- peake Bay Retrievers; Labrador Retrievers; English Setters; Gor- don Setters; Irish Setters; Anted - can Water Spaniels; Britanny Span- iels; Black Cockers; Ascob Cockers; Parti -color Cockers; English Cock- ers; English Springers; Irish Water Spaniels; Welsh Springers; Wei- maraners, (We're not quite certain of that last spelling, but don't lose too mach sleep over it, * * * Now, and none too soon, we come to the TOYS, which include Affenpinschers; Chihuahuas; Eng- lish Toy Spaniels; Brussels Grif- fons; Italian Greyhounds; Japanese Spaniels; Maltese; Papillons; Pek- ingese; Miniature Pinschers; Pom- eranians; Toy Poodles; Pugs; Toy Manchesters; Yorkshires, • * * * And, at long last, those desig- nated -rather rudely, we think -as NON=SPORTING: They are Bos- ton ' Terriers; Bulldogs; Chows; Dalmatians; French Bulldogs; Kee. shonden; Miniature Poodles; Stan, dard Poodles; Schipperks; and Miscellaneous, * * * We started off this piece -little knowing what we were getting into -by saying that the column was going to the dogs. Now we're about through, we're inclined to think that the whole world must be doing something similar, However, writ- ing it has cleared up one matter in our mind, A few days ago a tiny girl living nearby was proudly displaying a new present she'd re- ceived -a email puppy, Her mother • happened to ask us what breed It was, and we couldn't answer ",her, much Id our shame. * * * But if she asks us again, we'll be able to come through With fly- ing colors. llli the very last breed listed above ---MISCELLANEOUS. i r liltFARM FON J • Egg prices are too low, of course, They always .were, 'en far as I can remember, and that goes a long•.}vay back, Still, I've never seen them so low as they were in the days.of "the, old, old story about the farmer who asked the village store -keeper how much he was paying for eggs.* , "My good gosh," acid the farmer, upon hearing the quoted bid, 'that price doesn't even pay for the wear and tear on the hens." * * * But whatever the price of eggs, the more, efficient your flock is, the better off you are, And one good way to check your prospects -ac- cording to an expert out where they go in for eggs in a big way -is to study the records of farm . flock owners who have kept a full set of figures on income and outgo, * * * He goes on to tell about 41 flock owners who have been keeping' records ..in co-operation with an Agricultural College, Very likely these, flocks are a bit better than average -but up to the time, that Owners started keeping records in this College project, none of them had been overly successful. (Figures quoted, by the way, are for that special Middle West district, but I give them as set out and you can slake your own comparisons, * * * So, even though they may be bet- : ter than average DOW, they' weren't, when they started, But these folks were willing to, make changes in the way they handled their flocks, and in the equipment they used, Anyone else, of course, can make the same changes, * * * But let's look at the figures; Latest yearly summary of records shows the 41 demonstration flocks averaged 207 eggs, Mortality was 24 per cent during the year, Gross in- come per hen was $6,52, * * * Actual expenses of the 41 flocks - added up to $4.12 per bird, Most of that went to pay for the six pound. of feed per dozen eggs, Another $94,25 per flock was charged for in- terest at 6 per cent. * * * This left earnings of $2.11 per bird, or $1.94 per hour for the work of taking care of the flocks,. Of course, egg prices were good in the year covered by this .sum- mary. Eggs from all 41 flocks sold for a good margin above cost. * * * But look at the best 10 of those • 41 flocks, Their egg production -223 eggs per bird -was higher than the average, and their death loss -18.1 per cent -was lower, And they used only 5.4 pounds of feed to make a't dozen eggs. * * * So these best 10 flocks produced eggs at a cost of only 21 cents per dozen, At a 44 -cent egg price, that made a profit of $4.02 per bird, or $3.S0 an hour for labor, Even with eggs selling at 30 cents a dozen, those best 10 flock owners, will make some money. * * * • Now look at the poorest 10 of the 41 record-keeping flocks. They turn- ed out only 189 eggs per hen, had a 25 per cent mortality, ate more feed per dozen. So labor profit was only 31 cents per hen, 44 cents, per hour, * * * Since •the 10 low flocks had ex- penses of 28 cents a dozen, egg prices at around 30 cents will be hard for them to take, * * * How were the 10 high flocks able to shell out 'eggs at a•21-cents-per- doxen cost, while the 10 low flocks needed 2$ cents? * * * The answer is equipment and management, Bred -to -lay chicks. Good, well -insulated houses. Labor- saving equipment, Continuous water supply. Balanced ration.- If you have all those, -you can look forward to 1950 with confidence, * * * Our own Dominion Departinent of Agriculture has some interesting of Agriculture has some interesting things to say about a new variety of peach called SOLO. The experi- mental station .out in Summerland, B.C. introduced the SPOTLIGHT peach, and is now telling about its latest -a variety that Is expected to become a very useful addition to the list of firm canning peaches. So here you are, as the Government publicity ie directed to Ontario, as well_ as British Columbia. * * * Solo is' one of the results of a controlled breeding experiment be, gun ,in 1933, • when crosses Were made. of f, H, Hale and .Vetcfail. The seedlings were planted in 1936 and Solo was first selected as show, Ing promise in -1941, Since `then`it bee been subjected to extenalve kests -- both a fresh fruit and as a,. can ►iltg; variety, late A..J; Mann and 1?, :\Y: i1eane of the Summerland .tion. • * * - • The original tree has been a ljea'vy annual bearer and: ydurigg trees ex- htbit a tin* tsndeney. The -variety sets thickly and requires heavy thin. ning, The tree proved hardy at the station auring.the 'moderately severe winter af' 1942-43, Fruit-hud injury ' during -the winter of 1948.49 was slight, insufficient to reduce the crop and much less severe than` on J, H. Hale, - • The fruit matures. approximately with Valiant and Veteran, Solo is large, well. coloured, ,yellow -fleshed, firm, juicy, good to above fair in quality and, practically freestone, It has an exceptionally long picking range, remaining firm on the tree for several days after reaching ma- turity. It is very easy to pick and handle with a tninnlutn of bruising, being superior in this respect to Ve- dette, Valiant and Veteran, * * * In 1949 the fruit was clean and well finished and when canned was of attractive appearance, However, in certain seasons the appearance has been somewhat marred by patches of skin which lack normal pubescence and by the fact that the fruit is.rather susceptible to the net- ted form of mildew known as "Rusty Spot" which may sometimes appear in the. canned product. In peeling the fresh fruit, the akin ad- heres moderately to the flesh but in. the canning operation no particular difficulty is experienced in this re- gard, When canned the quality is good. * * * Growers who, are interested in a variety firm enough to reduce wast- age in the orchard, the packing house and the cannery, may consider Solo worthy of commercial trial.

His disciples for suggesting that a certain man nnigltt have ,been born blind as.a re- sult of . his own sins, and said of John the •Baptist: "If ye will receive it,, this is Elias, which was for to Come," (Matt, xi, 14), But for 'many present-day believ- ers eliesers in reincarnation it is neither the evidence of people such as Vishwa Nath nor the great weight of authority which is decisive.

The secret,. according to the 'doctor, ie to eat while you are drinking, preferably something rich in protein such as `meat. Drinking • on a full 3tonnach will also reduce the chances of a hang- over and retard the' intoxicating effect, • Drinking on an empty stomach can snake you dizzy within a few minutes, because the alcohol then passes almost directly into the blood stream; And the more concentrated the 'drink the more quickly it L absorber;, Soda -water, so innocent and harnt- less when taken by itself, acts like a super -charger when mixed with al- cohol; it speeds up absorption, . .

A piece of cardboard or an• old print is placed against the sides and edges of the print and wax, such as simonize automobile wax, 'is applied with cotton, A light coat should be first applied in one direc. tion, It should be left to dry for about 30 minutes and then lightly polished with -cotton, Then a second coat should be applied in the direc- tion opposite, This gives the print greater depth, luster and quality. Canadians Chart Worms' Behavior Until Drs, A, P, Arneson, R. A, Fuller and J. W. T. Spanks, three , Canadian research scientists, came along last month with a.commttnica• tion . in Science, not much was known about the movement of worms in the soil, There was noth- ing for it but to dig up the grubs or larvae and note their positions at the tune, Drs, Arneson, Fuller and Spinka hit on the idea of making the worths radioactive, so that. their movements above ground could' be followed with a Geiger -Muller counter, How were the larvae of the worths to be'„made radioactive, Feeding them with radioactive food was not practicable, It was decided to insert a radioactive oobalt wire into the body of a worth, Surviving cutworms and wireworms behaved normally after the wire had been Inserted, There was no loss of tntovetnent. The wire was shed with the' skin at the right tine, Nor were bad effects from 'the gamma rays noted. For lack of enough radioactive cobalt wire the Canadians fixed a speck of radioactive cobalt metal in the -tail notch of grubs with some plastic. There was no difficulty in following underground movements. This method made it possible to telt where the larvae were in a hori- zontal plane, But how deep were they? And how could their .move. up and down be noted? The Canto diens 'calibrated their instruments for varying soil depths. theirs is the first recorded method of following both :horizontal and vertical move ment at the same.time, The Cana- dians promise to find out how under- ground grubs respond to tempera ture, lignt, soil moisture, loll type, soli firtnness,and various foods and chemicals. • -ratiathrrical wool H*.• Fitt MOW i IIPVCTINN TNI:.:• I AVI IT 1b mii New House - Building Method Promises Better, Cheaper Hones Nearing completion in Norfolk, Vi., Is ',one' of bks world's molt unusual. housing projects, Spon• • cored by Nelson Rockefeller's In• ternational Basic Economy Corp, oration, the houses are built of cop - erste and are themselves not dra- matically different from the •run• of small, concrete, modern houses; but their method of construction is startlingly different, Indeed, they may, as the sponsors hope, open a new' .era in low-cost house con- struction, For the central point of. departure its these houses is that they are erected with the sweep, cost, and machinery with which great highways are built. The Norfolk houses, which are expected to be the 'prototype of much larger projects in other parts of the world, stern from the draw• ing board of Wallace Harrison, When I visited him the other. day in his Radio City office, he said his first thought had been about a more or less conventional house. something built of wood and fun 01 gadgets like automatic dishwash. ers, writes Robert A, Mullen, in The. Christian Science 'Monitor Then, during the' tear, had bllowed Itis phase of thinking of houses as a "machine for living,” During this 'period, he had explored with a ma• jor airplane firm the idea of apply- ing pplying aeronautical experience to mass house building, But after the war,, it became cleat to hint, and to the Rockefellers, that the world's most urgent need was not for gadgets, for aesthetics, or fancier ways of living, The need was just simply for plain houses to protect from 'weather and provide a minimum standard of . comfort, Then, one day in Venezuela, the, bright idea came. The Rockefellers have extensive projects in Vene- zuela, and at one point needed a' couple of houses 'for executive per- sonnel, Mr,' Harrison discovered that to erect two rather modest prefab houses of United States de- sign would cost about $20,000 per house; • By coincidence, at the same time he wanted 22 acres of swampland filled in as a site for a warehouse. He asked a local contractor who was building some roads for an oil company what it would cost to do the filling job. The contractor looked at a near -by hill and opined that with his big earth -moving ma- chinery, he could cut the hill' down and fill the swamp for not more than $20,000. In other words, you could move a tnountain in Vene- zuela for the price of a five -room house! In this vivid fashion, Mr,' Hard. son was reminded of the widely ac• ceped fact that the cheapest sort of construction. known to modern man is road building. His thoughts inevitably roamed in hat direction, coming up with the question: Why • not use road -building machinery to construct houses? Back at his Long Island estate, he began a series of •experiments all aimed at -using giant road -con- struction equipment to build the world's best cheap house. He was very glad to settle on concrete. It has many advantages, especially in tropical climates where destructive insects quickly spoil soft woods and In regions •where vermin and rod- ent. are hazard.' Moreover, by use of certain kinde of aggregate, it can be made a superior"insulation, Mso, it• is proof against fire and requires little paint' and otherwise minimum upkeep; More to the point, sand and gravel are . enfongthe most universal of the globe's materials, Road -building equipment, likewise, can be made available. He laid out .4 highway, com posed of a series of concrete ';!ahs. Skipping the first square, or slab he would' place a portable form or mold on the second. This form would comprise the inside and out. side walls- of a four -room house, He wouldfill this form with con` crete, let it set, remove the. (orm. Then he would go back to the first slab, " if . !t by 'a n 11to ted vacuum lifting tlevice•mekff's and place i1 on top of the just -completed room sec tion to form the roof! Mr, Harrison built tun hot,Scs al his Long Island place, work;n;; 0111 technical problems For instance, he found that the corners tended to crack and found a way of making them thicker and stronger by using nylon -rubber tubes. inflated with air to .act as corner forms. When ready to remove forms, all Ite had to do was deflate the corner tubes. Getting' the steel -wall forms' to.'slip off easily was a problem until , a workman remembered an old-coun trey trick of washing the' surface with a tannic acid solution. At Long Island, he used a gantry crane, but at Norfolk.he found that a bomber crane used during the war to clear air fields of crippled bomb- ers was' ideal for Billets the -roost form and roof section. Of course, this still' left a need for actual field experience, and especially cost experience, At Nor. folk, an especially acute housing shortage existed. So, at the request of a Norfolk businessman, the Rockefellers built 200 houses, meet- ing all federal housing administra- tion requirements. This job- has shown that they can build .a good, five -room, con- crete house, having automatic heat, good plumbing, but no gadgets, that will rent for $45 a month. If the house were to be sold; it would sell for approximately $5,000 to $5,500, land included. The house is roughly comparable, except for the attic, to the new houses one sees in suburbs selling - for $8,000 to $11,000. Of • course, "roughly cont. parable" is a relative term and might not meet with universal agreement. It is true the houses are not especially ,pretty.' They suffer from the sante fate as tnnost modern con. crate houses in that they are square and squat. Yet they have a full-' length window and a certain amount of shrubbery, which .goes with the house, may offset some of the angular uniformity of the group. However, these Norfolk houses were a pioneering effort, to lead the way for thousands of even more austere units in places of the world where any sort of roof is better than a leaky tent, or rat -ridden. mud hut, where sanitation and protection must necessarily come before charm; and where a good, cheap house is just about the most hu- manitarian item that can be offered.
