Again the time has come to wish
you all a very happy New Year.
How sincerely I wish itl I would
like to think that each and every
one of you will have reason to
greet the new year with hope and
thanksgiving. Thanksgiving' be-
cause we are a free people and
therefore able to hope with a fair
chance that our hopes will be
'realized,
And after all, how could we live
without hope—and faith? Hope and
faith are as necessary to life as
bread and water.
Perhaps when we say in greet-
ing "A Happy New year" we
don't really give the matter much
thought. Happiness after all is a
relative term. It depends a lot on
what we already possess. A child,
for instance, with very little to
amuse him, is happy if only one
new and unbroken toy is given

Yes, now is the time when every-
one, more or less• takes time out,
after the Christmas and New Year
celebrations, to relax. The holiday
season was a lovely time but tvhen
it is over there conies a time of
quiet contentment. In most homes
there has been a family gathering;
each has remembered other mem-
bers of the family with friendliness
and goodwill. Gifts have Been ex-
changed—big and small—and as
we look theta over afterwards it
is often the "token" gift that warms
our heart the most. Or maybe the
friendly letter from a comparative
stranger who wrote "just because
she wanted to send her good
wishes." 1 know, because I get
quite a few of that kind myself.
Now we can loot: back and re-
member it all. Or at least we can
remember the nice things, and for-
get the others. The joy of having
our family with us once again; the
depth of their affection remains
with us like the warns glow of a
fire on the hearth after the dancing
flames have died away.
Each in his or her own way will
greet this new year, 1931. But it
doesn't seem so very long since
we were having the sante thoughts
for 1950, does it? And yet a lot
has happened since then.
Well, maybe it is just as well
that a crystal ball is not part of
our equipment for living. Most of
us. have our pet worries—and half
the things we worry about never
happen anyway. But imagine if
we knew , . . if we knew beyond
a shadow of doubt that a great
fortune—or a great - sorrow—was
coating our way! No it wouldn't
do—we just couldn't take it,
* r: *
Yet there are times, are there
not, when we would give anything
to know the immediate future. Be-
--'fore- Christmas Tommy gazes spell-
bound at the mysterious parcels
under the tree .. , If only he knew
what was in them! Big brother
Bill, equally spell -bound, gazes at
Aima, wondering if he dare ask
that all important question. And
he would—if only he knew what
her answer would be! Parents, en-
during the adolescent stage of their
youngsters, watch them with anxi-
ous eyes. If they only knew -if they
only could be sure this was merely
a phase. Old people, with the wis-
dom of years and the loneliness
'that• accompanies .it, realize they
cannot keep pace with the younger
generation. They try to be helpful.
If only they knew—if they could
only be sure—that they were still'
needed and loved.
Every age has its problems—
none can really foresee the future,
so that each of us, without know-
ing the answers, must do that
which he thinks to be best.
And now I must close but before
I go let me tell you a secret.
Read the first letter of every
paragraph in this column put them
together, and you will find my
new year's message to you. But
since, as I write, it isn't even
Christmas, I shall have a lot more
to tell you -when next I write. Until
then—goodbye, and "God bless us
everyone."

told me his income; I made up a
budget to live on, but he will not
cooperate.
NO APPRECIATION
"My husband's and my working
hours conflict, I have to come
home and cook, scrub floors, iron—
and he will not even go to the
store or help carry out the rub-
bish, or do anything to help, unless
I urge him. He has weekends off,
but always has some place to go.
He has taken ane to a movie occa-
sionally, but nowhere else. He has
few friends, and neither have I,
since he has not introduced me
to anybody since I moved here,
'"I've always felt that husband

"All I hear is gripe, gripe, gripe,
I wouldn't mind helping out or
working hard, if he only appre-
ciated it. But he shows me no
affection, nor even kindness. 1f I
say anything, I'm just looking for
an argument, He thinks 1 have no
right to expect any consideration
at all—on niy day off, I'm sup-
posed to see his mother, and run
errands for her.
"My fancily live iii another prov-

If he is smart, he will start
practising now. Be articulate in
his love, constant in his thanks,

all this for him. All you want
to keep up your spirits is love

Love In Bottles
Floating down the African coast
are scores of love -letters in bottles
addressed to unknown beauties:
they were written by officers and
men aboard a 13ritish freighter
which is said to have eclipsed all
records for the longest delay of any
ship at an African port.
'.t'he freighter was 102 days at
Beira, and 70 of them were spent at
anchor •14% utiles off the port—too
far to enable the men to go ashore.
So after writing several letters
home, some of the crew decided it
was useless writing any more .front
the same spot and turned their at-
tention to love -letters. '1'hc bored
Wren, in the words of one of the
crew, "poured ottt their hiearts t0
unknown girls."
After scaling the love -letters in
bottles, they threw then, over-
board. One man wrote a series of
letters to his favourite filar actress,
Dorothy Lamour, Another address-
ed an adoring letter to "the girl who
finds this," and added: "I'm sure
she's a redhead."

Generally, that is the last that/

"After You, Columbus', recently

recounts the ahthor's experiences
during a yoyageocross the Atlantic
on the exact roue taken by Colum-

He tells us that one day a Negro
saw an America,, schooner at an-
chor not far from the shore of Nor-
man Island in the -West Indies, As
he watched, a boat put off front the
ship and rowed to the shore, where
it suddenly disappeared. Presently
the boat reappeared and teas rowed
back to the ship. The Negro saw
that it was .heavily laden with a
number of cases, which were taken
' on board the schooner before she

Why We Say Some
The Things We Do
Probably, when you sneeze, a
kindly disposed person remarks,
"Bless your ,
Do you know why?
Many centuries ago, when the
plague was a common scourge,
sneezing was a sign that the disease
had reached its crisis and that its
victim would inevitably die, Saint
Gregory is said to have instituted a
short benediction to be used on such
occasions, and so when we say
"Bless you" we hope that the
sneczer's health will not 'deteriorate,
There 'are many other phrases in
common use" which seem senseless
until you know their history.
When you have driven a golf ball
into someone's cucumber frames, do
you ever remark, "There be the
deuce to pay," meaning that trouble
will result?
Deuce is an anglicised form of
the French "deux" (two), and dicers
used to exclaim in disgust, "The
deuce," when they had made what
was the lowest possible throw.
Marathon performances, such as
walking throughout several days
and nights, are periodically popular,
A rtto : appropriate remark to the
112;;n v, la) has succeeded at this en-
dur:;ncc test is, "Von take the cake,"
This is a free translation of au
ancient Greet; phrase, for it was time
custom then to award a cake of
roasted wheat and honey to the man
who, was best able to keep awake
daring a long night watch,
The original marathon was one
hundred and fifty miles, and was
run by Phidippides in an effort to
obtain Spartan aid in the battle of
Marathon.
This article is well authenticated,
not the "bunk" or "bunkum" which
was inflicted on the U.S.A. house

ber for Buncombe, in North Caro-

Congress in order to impress his
constituents. 'When asked why he

actress and as a woman, bleaches them with lemon before aPPIy-
Ing rich cream for smoothing them,
TABLE. TALKS
ki,„„,hadt.s.
I have already written, in former
columns, about tlic use of cream
in baking. (Those of you who have
to BUY your cream can just ignore
the first two recipes), lint I don't
think I've told you about cream in
baking powder biscuits or corn-
bread—which is a pity, because it's
a trick that turns these hotbreads
into something your family will be
begging you to make again and
again.
Another trick in making biscuits
is to pat out the dough 'with your
fingertips to the desired thickness
instead of using a rolling pin.
That desired thickness is a bit
tricky because it depends on how
large' or how small you cut your
biscuits.
If you are using a two-inch cut-
ter, cut your biscuits one-half inch
thick, and if you are using a two
and one-half inch cutter, cut your
biscuits three-fourths of an inch
thick.
BAKING POWDER BISCUITS
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons baking powder
▪ cup lard
cup milk
rA cup cream
Method: Sift dry ingredients to-
gether. Witli' a fork, vett in lard.
.Add milk and creanm, and stir.
Knead lightly on lightly floured
board. Pat out to desired thickness
and cut. Place in an ungreased
shallow pan and bake in a 425 -
degree oven for 12 minutes.

CORNBREAD
1 cup yellow cornmeal
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons baking powder
2 tablespoons cane or beet
sugar
1 egg
2/ cup milk
Y3 cup cream .
2 tablespoons melted lard
Method: Beat egg, add milk and
cream and unix well. Add dry ingre-
dients which have been fisted to-
gether. Mix well. Add melted short-
ening and stir in.
Pour in a greased and floured
8 x 8 x 2 -inch pan. Bake 25 min-
utes in a 400 -degree oven.
If you like a thick crust on your
cornbread, grease the pan and stick
it in the oven to heat, and have
it hot enough so schen the batter
is poured in it will sizzle.
Now for a few recipes of a more
general variety—every one of theist
has been tested.and found good.

OLD-FASIIIONED beauty tricks are often the best,
according to Jean Simmons, well-known British filen'
actress, who strives toward natural loveliness rather than
sophisticated glamor.
Although her beauty routines are simple ones, site
doesn't overlook the importance of regular care. She
stresses that the basis of good looks is --first of all --
cleanliness. Hair should be frequently washed, shining,
well -brushed. Faces should he thoroughly cleansed be-
fore make-up is applied.
It's important, she continues, .to concern yourself with
beauty as a whole. 1-Iands arc too often neglected, she
• feels.
i
SIIE suggests This routine for keeping them always ready
for the spotlight of unexpected attention. Slice a
lemon in two and rub the cut half over your hand. This
will aid in bleaching, and in giving your hands the milky
look toward which current fashion is trending.
'1'o make certain they are smooth as well as white, she,
advises the use of a rich hand cream. Use this regularly
before retiring, and supplement its good work during the
day with a non -sticky hand lotion. Apply the lotion, after
drying, to restore the oils that are lost when your hands
arc dipped in water.

The Mystery Of The
Vanishing Nylons
1/4
While an American census taker
was collecting information at a shop
in Reedsburg, Wisconsin, some time
-ago, she suddenly noticed that her
nylons had disappeared.
But she put on another pair and
returned to work. Within a short
time, these vanished also, She tried
wearing two more pairs. They dis-
appeared.
. Barelegged and bewildered, she
went to the manager of the shop
where she had bought the nylons.
He explained that she had been
sitting, each time her stockings van-
ished, close to a storage battery,
acid fumes from which, clinging to
her legs, had dissolved the nylons,
About the sante time hundreds of
women in Jacksonville, Florida,
were embarrassed because their ny-
lons began to fall to pieces as they
walked. The hosiery manufacturers
declared they had never known any-
thing like it before, But health offi-
cers advanced the theory that in-
complete combustion in coal and oil
furnaces may have "sent out certain
gases that reacted with nylon
fibres,"
It was also announced that a hos-
pital in Atlanta, Georgia, had been
stopped wearing nylon and silk un -
refused insurance unless its nurses
dies in tete operating theatre. Song
undies of these materials were said
to have given off static electricity
sparks when rubbing against wool-
len dresses in a dry atmosphere,
A chemical expert in South Africa
said recently that despite its general
durability and many other advan-
tages, nylon has a "very low melt-
ing point."
He quoted instances of women
losing their nylons through the ac-
tion of sulphur gas discharged front
the exhaust of a car behind which
they. were standing. In 'a hospital,
formic acid disintegrated nylons
worn by 'nurses, he said,
Nylon is a chemical made by a
complicated process from air, water,
and the by-product of coal. A ny-
lon thread is stronger and has been
proved more resilient than silk,
In manufacture, many nylons are
treated with a special snag -resisting
finish. But during manufacture they
can be easily damaged by a rough
table edge or fragment of hard skin
on the operator's hand. Many oper-
atives are supplied with a special
hand cream so that .their hands are
in good condition to handle nylon.

()tie clay years ago' remarked
to a friend of ,tine, "1\'011, there's
ane goad thing about winter; you
don't open your paper and read
about a lot of drowning fatalities,"
"You don't " he replied, "belt you
read about what seems to .me far
worse — whole families losing their
lives in flaming houses."
* *
Perhaps he was right. Both of
the things referrer(. to are mighty
sad reading. And in spite of all
the safety campaigns, live continue
to be lost through fire or drowning
in appalling numbers. What makes
It worse, a great percentage of those
lives were lost through sheer care-
lessness.
i .
Carelessness with matches, for ex-
ample. While, for statistical pur-
poses, tires caused by matches and
those caused by smoking are usually
grouped together, the National
Fire Protection Association is of the
opinion that the careless use of the
match is the greater hazard of the
two.
Unnecessary deaths, injuries, and
loss of property are due to fires
started by children playing with
matches before they have learned
how to use thein safely.
* * ,3
Fires have been started by mat-
ches which were carried by birds or
rats into walls or crevices. \Vhen
used as building material for nests,
matches near stearal pipes or chim-
neys have been ignited by the
heat.
1 * #
The, most common combustible
material used in matches is a com-
pound of phosphorus. White phos-
phorus was once comr.:;nly used.
But because of the fact that white
phosphorus, when inhaled by match
• factory workers and when swal-
lowed by persons chewing on mat-
ches, is harmful. the United States
in 1913, following the lead of other
countries, put a heavy tax on the use
of white phosphorus in making mat-
ches, which has had a prohibitive
effect on their manufacture. Red
phosphorus is not as poisonous as
white, itence the red phosphorus
match factory environment is safer.
Since red phosphorus has a much
higher kindling temperature, those
matches are safer for shipping 'and
storing. Phosphorus sesquisulfide
is sometimes used in making match-
es and is not as poisonous as white'
phosphorus_—. _- _
:% y :E'
There are two general types of
matches, The strike - anywhere
match has all of the chemicals
necessary for ignition compounded
together in the bulb of the match.
The strike - on - the - box match
has the chemicals with the lowest
kindling temperature in the "strik-
er" on the side of the box. The
other chemicals are in tate bulb
of the match: In this way it is
difficult to strike the strike -on -the -
box snatch anywhere except on the
box itself.
* * r
Matches which have an Under-
writers' label on the box •have hid,
the head, '-sptint and afterglow
The Underwriters' Laboratories
standard requires that the !lead
shall not fly or split when struck;
the afterglow shall not exist for
more than two seconds; and the
splint shall be strong enough not
to break during ordinary striking.
-- Afterglow is an indication that the
match may reignite or cause con-
tiguous substances to ignite after
it• has been discarded as extinguish-
ed. * * *
Matches should never be carried
loose in the pockets of clothing
because they may ignite when ac-
cidentally hit, Also, because of the
fact that match heads adhere close-
ly to fiber, there is danger that
they may be left• in the pockets of
clothing when, being sent -to the
cleaners, causing lire when placed
in the presser.
Sky Skiing—Top photo shows the first ski -equipped Douglas
Airliner on its takeoff from airport on its way to Point Barrow,
Alaska, for airlift and mercy service within the Arctic Circle.
(.ower picture is a close-up of the skis,
Before striking a match, the box
or folder should be closed to keep
the other snatches from igniting.
One should also check to see that
the box it right side up before open-
ing it.
* * :3
A tightly closed, metal container
is the safest tvay to store or carry
matches. If matches are put in a•
stand, they should be placed with
heads down so that they will not
accidentally ignite. All matches
should he kept out of reach of child-
ren.
4
Only one match should be re-
moved front the container at a time,
Several matches bunched together
in the hand may flash and cause
serious hand burns. One should
strike the match away from oneself,
but never toward anyone else since
the head may fly off and cause
clothing to'catch fire. When light-
ing a cigaret in the wind. one should
be careful not to strike the match
too close to the face; •
Matches should never be carried
into any storage room containing
inflammable or explosive materials;
nor should they be carried when
handling or working with inflam—
mable or explosive materials. One
should use a flashlight of electric
torch when rummaging around in a
closet, attic, basement or garage,
since combustible materials may be
in such places.
* ',
It is recommended that burned
matches be broken in two to insure
that the flame is extinguished before
the match is thrown away.
f! :k *
Stone jars of sand are safe and
useful receptacles in public buildings
for burned matches and , cigaret
stubs, Metal and glass ash trays
are also safe places, provided wads
of paper have not been put there,
too. Burned matches should never
be thrown into wastebasket or con-
tainer of inflammable materials,
1, :.
In the open, care should be taken
not to discard burned matches near
dry leaves or grass. Many forest
fires are caused by the failure to
make certain that the ]Hatch has
been extinguished before throwing
it :sway..

Where Thieving
Is A Fine Art
IIave you ever considered sailing
off into the Atlantic in a sniall
yacht? (Don't scoff — it might
happen, for quite a lot of unexpec-
ted pcoplc have done so.) An un-
employed labourer 'named Fred
'R.ebell, with no previous cxperi-.
ence of the sea, sailed from Aust-
ralia to Europe in a • boat which he
bought for a few pounds, and many
a land -lubber with little money
and even less expert knowledge
has embarked on. such an adven-
ture. ;
If you should dao so, however,
think twice about' putting into
the port of La Coruna, For, ac-
cording to Edward Allcard, thiev-
ing.fronl ships has been brought to
a fine art at that Spanish port,
Allcard, who sailed alone across
the Atlantic to New' York a year
ago in his seven -ton yacht Temp-
tress and started on the return trip
this year, putting in after seventy-
four days at sea, battered by gales
and' half starved, at Horta, in the
Azores, says that a favorite trick
is to cut the mooring lines of a
ship almost through, so that as soon
as she casts off they break and sink
to the bottom of the harbour, They
are retrieved later, when the owner
has sailed away in disgust,
Such avid thieves are they that
there is a story to the 'effect that
a yachtsman was buying his own
rope over the stern from one Span-
iard as another was paying it out
over the bows!
Edward Allcard's new book,
"Single - handed Passage" tells the
graphic story of a great adventure.
It tells how he survived gales at
sea, fogs, sharks and—a beautiful
blonde
"What does a bachelor do?" asks
Allcard, "when a starry - eyed, sun-
burned blonde steps aboard at Gib,
and tries to thumb a ride to Cape-
town?
"What difficulties there are in
sailing the oceans! I-Iow one's life's
ambitions are endangered by a
chance encounter! If I'd weakened
and taken her with me I'm sure
1 should have fallen in love with
Iter,,.."
He survived his blonde, however.
And one wonders, after his latest
epic of courage and endurance, what
next he'll attempt, There's always
the world to be sailed round ....
In the midst of her first driving
lesson, Mrs, Wililaus complained
to her husband: "George, that little
mirror up there isn't set • right."
"You think trot?" George rejoin-
ed.
"No," the harassed student pro-
tested, "I can't see a•thing in it but
thc car behind!"
PORT,
vv A t1X131TC1,l IC
There doesn't seem to be the
slightest doubt II at hockey, in
many places, — especially south of
the border — badly needs •t shot
in the arum. One critic, askcii what
he thought was the principal cause
of poor attendances, said — "Seeing
the same old faces too often; even
the kids get fed up after they watch
the sante Hopalong Cassidy lila] on
television more than a dozen times,
and the hockey fans would like a
bit more Variety."
v * ;
Which, of course, Is just one
inan's opinion. Still, there are
marry who believe that hockey
would do well to introduce some-
thing along the lines of the English
Football Association's Challenge
Cup — "'I" Coop' for short, Last
September there were six hundred
and fifteen teams entered for 'The
Cup, and it is possible — although
not at all probable — that sonic
practically unheard-of amateur out-
fit will conte through, and take
home the silverware, as well as the
juicy chunk of gate -receipts that
goes with it.
* h :1
The big boys \ teams from the
First or Second Division—generally
finish on top. But the possibility
that the miracle might happen keeps
interest in soccer alive in scores of
small towns acid hamlets which —
without that incentive — would not
be able to support a team at all.
'rhe chances of that miracle coating
to pass, as will be seen litter, arc
mighty sling; but you can't arrest
a mall — or a team( — for dream-
ing.
3 •* #
The actual value of the h• A.
Cup itself is understood to be in
the region of £25 but the cash
potential to the winner through
its actual• share of the proceeds
and increased box - office appeal is
something like £50,000. The Ar-
senal, London's glamour team that
won last year, had a rich haul,
From the semi-final and final en-
gagements its share was £ 11,731,
Prior to that it had pocketed pro-
fits from four hgme cup ties wit-
nessed by a quarter of a million
fans.
The septi -final and final ties are
where the F,A, takes .its rakeoff,
25 per cent. of the profits go to
the national soccer body, 25 per
cent• each to the two participating
clubs (each septi -final being a sep-
arate account) and 25 per cent, to
what is known as the pool." This
is an account opened when the third
round gets under way and when the
crowds and stoney begin to roll
in.
*
What happens is that a percent-
age is gathered from each cup tie
old when the final has been played
it is shared out among the clubs
operating in the English League,
Last season these 88 outfits each
received £1,231, the only difference
being that 51 were dealt £1,231,
Os, 2d,, and 37£1,231. Os, Id. Al-
• though little more than a drop in
the ocean for the prosperous and
wealthy clubs, this share out repre-
sented a big splash for some of the
,struggling third division sides,
* o *
The third division sides and
other professional and septi - pro-
fessional clubs operating outside the
English League look upon the F,A.
Cup totu•nanlent as a' big opport-
unity to earn a bonus to help
things along. Two or three at-
tractive engagements against crowd -
pulling premier. outfits, perhaps
with replays, has often been known
to equal the entire season's income
from the league play of a little
club, The welcome additional rev-
enue goes to provide better dress-
ing rooms, better spectator accom-
modation and, somewhat ironically,
better players,
*
This ,season, however, not one
club operating outside the major
league is left in. the competition at
round three. Such a thing 'has not
happened for 40 years, ' The 64
teams that go into battle on Jan,
• 6 comprise the first and second
divisions' 44 giants and the third
divisions' 20 big boys who elimi-
nated all the small boys.
. "' 4 *
Thus titre will be none of those
giant -killing exploits that rock soc-
cerdon and make the alp 1durna-
anent so excitedly unpredictable.
Every single one of the tuillion-
odd regular Saturday afternoon soc-
cer fans would willingly pay treble
admission fee to have a repitition of
a couple of years ago when a non-
league club, Colchester United,
came right through front the first
round proper and after vanquishing
major league outfits etc route elim-
inated a first division team, Hud-
dersfield Town, in the third round,
That exploit was responsible for
the admission of Colchester to the
English League where it now op-
erates in the third division, south-
ern section,

Traditional British " 'sympathy
lying as it docs with the underdog
what the fan secretly hopes for
now is a third division side ad-
vancing to; the final, It has never

"Old Man River"
Reaches Gulf
;As seen from a com[wlablc su•ant-
er chair, the New Oreleans water
front looks like an unbroken line of
ships straining tit the wharves, with
decks burning beneath a brutal sun,
under tvliich sweating then load and
unload precious cargoes.
OLD ?11r1N RIVER races past
the levees impatient to reach the
Gulf, depositing his collection of
• dirt and debris throughout the Delta
as he passes. Finally the River
sweeps ;Ito the blue of the Gulf
where s,: ,,,;s, porpoises, and tarpon
test the ..:;I of the deepsea fisher-
man.
South of Venice the levees disa-
ppear; the land is vast and flat, with
treacherous swamps. Modest shacks
rise above the soggy soil on pilings
sunk in shifting hillocks that devas-
tating winds and rain dissolve away.
During a hurricane this lonely reg-
ion is swept clean by its force—
everything that man built disap-
pears. After a severe storm the
• survivors return from places of
safety to build anew—as insecurely
as ever, with the familiar pirogue
at the water's edge,
!'ort Eads, at the end of South
Pass, was named for James B. Earls,
wito built the first river jetties,
which still maintain a deep channel
into the Gulf, The bar pilots at Port
Eads guide the ships to and from
the Gulf in fair weat'r.er and foul.
The treacherous sand bars at the
, mouth of the River are resting

Glamour That Will
Shine In The Dark
Very soon glamour will shine as
nazzling in the dart: as it does by
day! Imagine, for instance, some
lovely blonde cover girl on a mid-
night bathing party,
She sits by the side of the pool,
or on tite beach, the golden tints
in her hair, the smooth texture of
her skin, the red of her lips and blue
of Iter eyes—even the bright spots
that decorate her swim-suit—shin-
big in the darkness!
Yes, that will be a fact when the
scientists complete their researches
into the tnariufacture. of luminous
make-up• and fabrics. Any minute
now your girl friend will be quite
as easily seen in the darkness as the
luminous face of a bedside clock!
Nail varnish and , lipstick that
glow in the blackest night would
already be in production if it had
not been found that the paint now
being used on posters is of particu-
larly good for the shin. So scientists
are looking for a harmless substi-
_tute which, ivhen discovered, will be
incorporated in foundation creams,
face powder and probably lotions
that 'can be sprayed on to the hair
—so that, in fact, madame can high-
light as many of her features as she
likes and conveniently suppress
those of which she is not so proud,
Even before night -proof make-
up is available, _ luminous fabrics
will probably be manufactured,
doubtless out of the finest nylon,
which is now amongthe favourite
materials 'for swim -wear because it
dries almost intntediately.
Don't be surprised, either, if the
glamorous figure -revealing swim-
suits of the near future are stuck
on to their wearers!; Two recent
crises—one when Jean Simmons lost
the top half of her two-piece suit
ureter -water at Venice, but fortun-
ately managed to retrieve it and put
it on again before she emerged, and
the second when the cleaners re-
moved the elastic from all the nylon
suits to be worn by the girls in the
Aqua -show at Earl's' Court, with
nearly disastrous results—have sug-
gested that something in the nature
of sticking plaster or liquid glue
would be safer, particularly if fash-
ionable swim -suits are going to be-
come still more abbreviated.
"Foxier" Than A Fox
America's prowling prairie wolf,
the coyote, Is every bit as artful
as Byer Fox, according to a Texan
•ex -cowboy, now turned writer, Prof,
J, Frank Dobie,
One day, for example, a fellow
cowpuncher of his saw a bunch
of crakes in the grass, gathered
close together with stretched necics,
watching with fascination a coyote
400 yards away, tinning somer-
saults and capering round and
round to hold their attention,
But all the while the free shote
was in progress another coyote was
creeping stealthily towards them
from the rear , , , until he was near
enough to spring and catch one of
the cranes before they could (ly-
ofi'• The first coyote then ceased his
antics, ran up, grabbed the crane
and ate it.
Pretended Death
Here is an interesting instance
of the wily coyote's trick of sham-
ming death to gain a steal,
:1 ratan saw a coyote suddenly
stop, fall to the eartlt and stretch
out like a dead animal, IIe supposed
the animal had been poisoned, as
people in the vicinity were putting
dovtt strychnine. But presently he
noticed a buzzard wheeling earth-
ward over the coyote. Before long
the bird' of carrion alighted near
the motionless body and hopped
near it. Just as it was within reach,
the coyote sprang up, seized the
buzzard by the neck, killed and ate
it,
It's also known that the coyote
produces a queer ,kind. of bark by
placing his lower jaw against the
ground and his foot into his mouth.
It's believed, too, that to "break
up" his voice vibrates his lower
jaw from side to side while hark-
ing and stakes_his chest shiver by
stamping the ground with rigid
forelegs.
When two coyotes sing a duet,
according to the observer, they
don't bark hapalizardly, or in unison
but catch each other up with light-
ning quickness, producing such a
torrent of barks that they sound like
a large pack,
An army lieutenant, out hunting
in the Monterey hills, tells how he
saw three coyotes, shot at them,
and brought one tumbling down the
steep slope. To Itis surprise the
other two followed—and actually'
bolstered up their wounded com-
rade and assisted hint out of sight!
In Itis absorbing book, "The
Voice of the Coyote," Prof. Dobie
has some highly interesting tales
to tell of coyotes, even touching
on them as weather -forecasters and
warners of impending death,
"Perfect Doctor"
Lands In Jail
Because he failed 'to keep up
payments .on his car, a 37 -year-
old New York "doctor" has been
exposed as one of the most sensa-
tional frauds in medical history,
For five years, William R. Mac-
leod was highly regarded as a•
physician and surgeon in various
American hospitals. In one Brook-
lyn hospital he delivered no fewer
than 475' babies, Yet he has never
even possessed a high school diplo-
ma—let alone a medical degree!
Even Judge John T. McCornuck,
who recently imposed a year's jail,
sentence on Macleod, carate under
his care as a patient last July,
"He scented to be the real McCoy
among doctors," declares the Judge.
Macleod is a Canadian who serv-
ed as a private in the U,S, Forces
during the war, While helping a
bacteriologist in the Medical Corps
he read all the books on medicine
he could find, and in 1945 became
a self-styled—and highly success-
ful—doctor•,
It was when he got behind with
payments for his car that the police
made a routine check,and discover-
ed that he had never had a medical
licence.

mitted a single medical misdeed.

Lighthouse Tending
Not All Boredom
The average landsman probably
thinks of lift in a lighthouse as
mainly a struggle against boredom,
Ile imagines that, isolated in their
granite towers, the keepers live a
secure and uneventful existence in
which the greatest hazard is the fail-
ure of the relief boat to reach them
at the appointed time:
Yet this is by no means• the case,
There has been in the annals of the
lighthouse service enough of mys-
tery and tragedy to satisfy the most
adventurous imagination, '
Consider, for example, the experi-
ence undergone by 'a keeper at a
lighthouse at the end of the eigh-
teenth century, The weather was so
bad during one winter that .no cont
ntunication with the land was pos-
sible for a period- of nearly four
months.
Nevertheless, the relief boat made
several unsuccessful attempts to ap-
proach the rock.
After,one attempt it returned with
the report that a than could be seen
standing upright and Motionless on
the lantert'gallery with the distress
flag floating beside him,
Whether he was alive or dead' it
was impossible to tell, but as the
lamp' shone out every night it was
obvious that the work of the light-
house was , being carried on ,as
usual,
Month's Torture
The mystery was solved by a
local fisherman who. managed to
land on the rock in a moment of
calm. He found that one of the
keepers had died of fever and that
his companion, afraid of being sus-
pected of murder if he .had flung
thebody into the sea,' had placed it
in a canvas shroud' and securely.
bound it to the gallery,
Strangely enough, a keeper in the
Eddystone lighthouse had precisely
the same experience some years
earlier. In this instance, however,
the survivor' was forced to spend
a whole month inside the tower
with the body of his companion,
When the relief boat finally ar-
rived it took off not only a corpse
but a white-haired, gabbling mad-
man.
Are lighthouse -keepers ever driven
out of their. minds through living in
. this state of almost continual soli-
tude and monotony? There is at
least one case on record.
Unsolved Mystery
1)uring a spell of .boisterous
weather its the winter of 1862 one of
the three keepers of the Longships
lighthouse became so unnerved by
the heavy battering set up by wind
and sea that, on being called to go
on watch, he stabbed himself in the
chest with tt knife, .
But probably the most mysterious
of all lighthouse tragedies occurred
in connection with the Flannan Is-
lands lighthouse off , the Outer
Hebrides.
One bleak December day in 1900
the relief boat called at the light-
house and found it deserted. The
latnp was burnt out, the last entry
in the journal was dated a week be-
fore—but of the. three keepers there
was no trace whatsoever. They had
vanislied as completely as if they
had never existed,

Search For Cause
Of "Baby Measles"
The cause of roseola, or "baby
measles," one of the most common
and frightening but least dangerous
diseases of infants, has been traced
by scientists in the University of
California to a visits, it was an-
nounced recently. Many physicians,
particularly in Europe, have main-
tained that tite ailment, which
causes great concern among parents,
is not a specific disease but merely
an allergic reaction,
Roseola infantunn, also known, as
exanthema subiturn (surprise rash)
afflicts almost all children, some
time between the ages of 6 months
and 2 years. It usually starts with a
fever, the temperature often rising
to as high as 105 degrees, The fever
lasts about three days, then drops
precipitously; A rash then develops,
lasts for a day, and the disease is
terminated, It is a mild infection,
there •being•no records of fatalities,
The scientists began their investi-
gation by taking blood scrum from.
a diseased infant. They passed it
through a filter that permits only
viruses to go through its minute
.pores. On injecting the filtered ma-
terial into monkeys, the roseola was
readily developed in the animals,
marking the first tine' that the dis-
ease has been successfully trans-
mitted. From this it is concluded
that roseola is a definite disease and
that it is caused by a virus.
The California scientists now have
started a search for reservoirs of
the virus, Since the disease fre-
quently occurs among infants who
•are most carefully protected against
exposure to sick children or infants,
the scientists concluded that if the
infectious agent is . acquired front
other human beings, it might be
from other human beings, it might
be from a healthy person,
The roscola virus, the evidence
indicates, is something like herpes
simplex -'—a very conunon virus in-
fection that causes fever bli??ters,
The investigators believe that, like
herpes, the roseola virus may be
present nearly all the time in the
oral passages of nearly all adults—
even though it may not cause dis-
ease in the carrier. So they are now
trying to isolate the virtts from the
throat washings of adults,
FAIR PLAY
When the coast of Florida was
sparsely populated and hurricanes
wrecked sailing vessels on its
shores, the people of the towns
would hurry out and "salvage" all
they could from damaged vessels.
Otte Sunday, a small boy dashed
into the church service to announce
that another ship had just been
beached, The congregation dashed'
like a tidal wave for the doors,
when the preacher intoned pontifi-
cally, "Wait! I have but eight more
words to say to you."
The imp"aticnt people shuffled
restlessly, while the preacher' walk-
ed to the door, Placing his hand on
the door --knob, he said: "Now, let
us all get a fair start."
When "Dizzy" Bought
A Real Bargain
Seventy-five years ago last Nov-
ember Benjamin Disraeli (Lord
Beaconsfield) brought off the most
spectacular financial coup in Bri-
tain's histtory.
In November, 1875, it was an-
nounced that the Khedive of Egypt,
Ismail Pasha, was in urgent need
of funds and was negotiating with
certain French banks for the sale
or mortgage of his shares in the
Suez Canal,
Tf this sale had been allowed to
take place Britain's most important
connecting link with India would
have been severed at a most critical
period in her history.
Determined that the canal should
not become entirely French, Dis-
raeli on his own initiative, since
Parliament was not then sitting,
borrowed nearly $20,000,000 from
his friend Baron Rothschild, and
snapped up the Khedive's 176,602
shares on behalf of the British
Government.
Ilis daring action was not consti-
tutional, but it was a fine invest-
ment for Britain.
Today those shares are worth
considerably more than 100 million
dollars, and for the last half cen-
tury' the annual dividend has rarely
been less than 20 per cent of the
original purchase price.
Strategically the Suez Canal is
of the utmost importance to the
Royal Navy, especially during
periods of international tension.
It enables the Mediterranean Fleet
to be moved either east or west
as occasion arises. Control of the
approaches to the canal by hf,M,
warships is essential to the cohe-
sion of the British Empire.
Egypt lies athwart 'our path to
the Far East, and if the Suez
Canal fell into the hands of a hos-
tile power the shortest route to the
Far East would be blocked,
New Canal Proposed
The canal's future is a major
problem among statesmen of the
Western World. Although regarded
as an international waterway, free
to all mations in peace or war, the
canal is, nevertheless, a private
enterprise,
Ferdinand De Lesseps built this
miracleof engineering on land
leased to hint by the Egyptian Gov-
ernment.
That lease expires in 1968, when,
as in the case of leasehold property
generally, it reverts back to the
owners of the land, in this case the
Egyptian Governunent•
Sonte predict that before the
lease expires Britain and the United
States will have built another canal
to rival that of De Lesseps, cutting
straight' through from Gaza on the
Paelstine coast to the Gulf of
Akaba, the north-eastern extremity
of the Red Sea,
Engineers have estimated that
with modern engineering tech-
niques, such a canal, 150 miles long,
could be completed in two years.
The Suez Canal took ten years
and cost some $85 trillion to build.
From Port Said on the Mediterra-
nean to Suez on the Red Sea, it is
Solved A Mystery
Centuries Old
For four centuries tltc world's
greatest navigators had risked their
lives and their ships to find a sea
route north of America which
would offer a short cut to India
and the Far East,
All had failed.
'!'hen in the late autumn of 1850
two little ships, the "Enterprise"
and the "investigator," slipped
away under the command of Captain
Robert John LeMesurier McClure,
R.N., in an endeavour to solve the
mystery of the disappearance in the
frozen seas of Sir John Franklin,
Sir John had set sail five years
earlier with a hundred and thirty
picked then from the Royal Navy
to find the elusive North-West
Passage,
He had not returned, and Mc-
Clure's ships were two of many
sent to find hint,
"Freezing Horror"
Unlike the other ships, however,
the "Enterprise" and "Investigator"
went via the Pacific and the Bering
Strait. Battered by the tack ice
and blind in the Arctic darkness,
they lost each other.
The captain of the "Investigator"
decided to return, but McClure
pushed on till he reached Banks
Land.
Then his ship became hopelessly
locked in the frozen waste, and
there began two years of what
one of his officers described as
"unmitigated, freezing horror."
Yet in spite of privation, hunger
and cold, McClure explored and
surveyed the island of which he
was imprisoned, and sent sledging
parties over the ice to map the
contours of neighbouring land
masses.
Because his gallant little ship
withstood all the efforts of the
ice to grind her to pieces, McClure
gave the name of Mercy Bay to
that part of the coast where his
ship was locked in.
Ocean to Ocean
By the spring of 1854 half his then
were dying. A few of the fit were
just getting ready to start overland
in a desperate attempt to get help
when another British expedition
found them,
McClure .reluctantly decided to
abondon his strip and sledge across
the ice with his crew to join one
of the rescue ships, which' then
returned with hint to the Atlantic.
Thus lie was the first man in his-
tory to cross via the north of
Atnerica from the Pacific to the
Atlantic, a feat which earned .him
a knighthood and a sum of $50,000
voted by Parliament,
Ile had solved the mystery of
the North-West passage, for he had
shown that a water and ice pas-
sage •existedJcQncean . oryn•.
about 100 miles long, and entailed
the excavation, mostly by hand, of
80,000,000 cubic yards of sand,
earth and rock.
Estimates for the construction of
the -proposed Gaza-Akaba Canal
havevaried between $80,000,000 and
$400,000,000,
