Hockey Teams Heading Into
Home Stretch
An indication that \\'inter is well on
it's way is born ant by the fact that
local hockey teams are heading well
down the home stretch in their sched-
ule of league guiles.
The juvenile schedule runs out on
February 5111, with 131yth Ltgion Juv-
eniles \t:siting Betgrave in the final
scheduled game.
Myth has only one more home game,
with the 13russcls juveniles, and no
definite. (bate is fixed for it to be play-
ed at (line of writing. 'Phe Juveniles
play in Seaford) against 1)111)1i11 on
Friday night. 'This is an a11p,ortant
game for them. Dublin defeated them
here in their other meeting. They
also have a postponed game with the
\somatom midgets, which is Monkton's
home game, but it is doubtful if this
game will be played.
111 the intermediate schedule, the
last gauge is on February 9t1. when
Lon(leshoro 13.-A.'s entertain the Wal-
ton intermediate at the 131yth arena.

As you probably know, in the
nost select Canadian and United
States racing circles the words
'tout" and "tipster" simply are not
used, The little fellow who asks for
the loan of your program and then,
in a confidential whisper offers -
for a consideration, of course -to
let you in on "the hot one my bro-
ther is riding in the next race,"
would k highly indignant if you
spoke of him by either of those
tags. I1e is a "Confidential 'Porro
Adviser," a "Special Selector" or
some such even if he hasn't picked
a winner since Hickory Jim was a
wcanliug, which is a long time
ago,
* *
()e'er the years we have been
acquainted with many of these gen-
try, and written pieces regarding
not a few. \Ve have known them to
do'many strange, almost incredible
things, and use ingenuity worthy of
an Edison or Graham )3e11, all in
the interest of escaping the curse
of Adam -doing an honest day's
work. ( Did we say "day?" We
meant "hour," of coarse.)
* * *
But, up to a few days ago, we
never heard of one of then( writing
a book. Still, there's a first time
for everything; and now, under the
title "I GOTTA HORSE" Prince
Ras Monolulu, an English tipster -
they call spades spades over there
-has published the story of his
life.
* * a
\ionolulu is well known on every
British race course, where his
brightly coloured robes, African
head dress and fog -horn voice have
made hint one of the most familiar
figures in Turfdom. Unlike most of
his brethren we have met on this
side of the Atlantic, he must dig up
live ones once in a while as he esti-
mates that (luring the past thirty
years over three-quarters of a mil-
lion dollars have passed through his
hands. A large proportion of this
sunt, he claims, carte from betting
on his own tips-sonithing which
would probably get him heaved out
of every Turf Adviser's lodge from
Lansdowne Park to Santa Anita,
where such a practice is regarded
as the b.ggest kind of knucklehead
play. "Let the suckers take the
chances -what else are they made
for?"
* * *
Monolulu's first taste of real
success cause in 1920, when Spion
Kop !von the Derby. For months
before the race Ile had given the
horse as a free tip everywhere he
went. As he walked through the
streets of London he would stop
passers-by and tell them: "Don't
forget - Spion Kop for the Derby."
In trains and buses, at football
matches and race meetings, even
in restaurants, he would implore
everyone he met to: "Have a
pound on Spion Kop, and when
you'xe won, don't forget the darkie
who told you. Spion Kop for the
Derby - and no danger!"
*
The story of the race itself is
best told in his own words: "I
lost the horses in the last few
furlongs. Everyone was craning
forward and I could get only an
occasional glimpse of the jockeys'
caps. Round me the crowd was
beginning to shout: 'Archaic
wins! Orpheus wins!' - then
followed by 'Spion Kop! Spion
Kop for a million!'
* * *
"I was delirious: I don't know
just what I did then, I shouted, .
I screamed: 'Spion Kop's wont
What I told yogi What I told you!'
The crowd mobbed me; I had told
everybody on the Downs, 'Back
Spion Kop.' All the way through
the throng people began to give
Foul Play -Two ex -Manhattan College basketball stars and three other nmol, identified as
gamblers, were in a Bronx, N.Y., police station on charges of conspiring to "nix" live cage
games last season. From left to right are .Hank Poppe and Jack Byrnes, the players:
Cornelius Kelleher; and two brothers, Irving and Benjamin Schwartzherg,
me money, They thrust pound
notes into my hand, ten -hob notes,
half-crowns, shillings and even tan-
ners. 1 had backed Spion Kop
for every penny I had in the world
at 20 to 1 and I left the course with
over £3,000* :w in winninwgs alone!"
Next day carte the deluge! Pos-
tal -orders, cheques, bank -notes be -
gam to arrive in hundreds at Hono-
lulu's home, sent by people Who
had "remembered the darkie who
told then(," Many of the letters
were addressed simply to "Prince
Alonolulu, London."
* *
For some months after that \[o-
nolulu could (lo no wrong, and by
St. Leger Day in September he was
worth some £8,000. But his luck
turned. 1-ic was always fond of
spending, and there were always
many ready to help. So that when
luck deserted hint, and loser fol-
lowed loser in illonotonous sllcCCS-
sion, his thousands vanished as
quickly as they had come, By
December he was broke - very
broke indeed. So much so that
he was forced to go into the work-
house.
Then, just before Christmas, he
happened to call at a post office in
Soho where four letters were ad-
dressed to hint, waiting collection.
The first three contained postal
orders for tips, totalling the modest
but none -the -less lvcicome suns of
twelve shillings. Then Honolulu
opened the fourth - and drew out
ten crisp five -pound notes - ac-
companied by a letter which apolo-
gized for not sending him a present
earlier out of the Spion Kop win-
nings, but expressing the hope that
the enclosed would be acceptable
at Christmas.
* * *
Another Derby Day drama -.
this time with a less happy ending
--came the way of the dusky tipster
ten years later. To all and sundry
he had tipped the Aga Khan's
horse, Blenheim, to win the big
race, and had himself had £25 on
at twenty -to -one. The horse duly
won. And Honolulu, surrounded
by a crowd of congratulatory pun-
ters, drew £525 in cash from the
bookie, But that was not all;
scores of backers who had shared
in his luck thrust presents on him,
and as he made his way to the
station at the end of the day he was
richer by £7001
As he neared the station a man
stepped from a marquee and asked
him to have a drink - an invitation
which was readily accepted.
* * *
As the pair stood chatting Mono -
lulu suddenly received a tremend-
ous push hi the back. He stumbled,
fell, and before you could say "Jack
Tots Don Togs And Assorted Expressions -At the fanged Mer-
chandise Mart, the small set modeled summer clothes with
mixed emotions, One -year-old Sherry Ann Bobek (left) belli-
gerently posed in a polka dot diaper cover, Beside her, Danny
Conway, age three, was downright defiant as he displayed
leopard trunks, Resolutely unhappy was Sharon Brookwater,
1tTs6 three, \vho found that her ruffled red panties itched, Five-
year-old Kathleen Ludwig was a picture of extlbelatice in her
beach ensemble with reversible jacket, while Leslie Gaguger,
"caring a plaid denim sun snit with bare nmidriff, stood poised
like the eight-year-old lady that she is.
Pretty Perch - "Litre Crest
Prince," a light Brahma type
rooster, found the shoulder of
Lois Gunas the perfect perch-
ing spot as he preened his
feathers for a recent poultry
show.
Robinson" five men were on top of
hint. The racecourse "boys" work
quickly and, in a matter of seconds,
he had been robbed of every note
and coin he had on him. By the
time the police -inspector arrived on
the scene the "boys" were on their
way to fresh adventures - and all
the inspector could do was lend
poor Honolulu half a crown to get
honk with.
* * :)
Well, they say that the only sure
way of beating the races is either
to own a track or write stories
about them. Maybe, if A7onolulu's
book becomes a "best seller" he'll
find it more profitable than any of
his SellS11tiolla1 tips.
Escaped Gallows
On. Three Occasions
blow many lecturers have ad-
dressed a big audience in pitch
darkness?? It fell to the lot of
Cotildr. A. B, Campbell, the fa-
mous Brains 'Truster, when he had
to speak during the war in • a
crowded hangar with a glass roof
which •could not be blacked out.
He fumbled his way to a• small
platform with a "mike in front of
it, but when he began talking there
was a loud pe'sis;en note like the
cipher in an organ.
I -Ie stepped back and shouted
"Can you hear Inc at the back?"
"No l" came the response. All they
could hear was the note -C major.
That gave hint a clue• I -Ie asked
the sergeant electrician who'd fixed
the "mikes where he'd put the
loudspeaker. "There was no place
to rig it in. the hall," the sergeant
called, "so I stood it on the piano."
"Shift it off and put it on a chair,"
Comdr. Campbell ordered -and that
cured the trouble. A note in his
voice was synchronizing 'with that
.on the piano, and the C major note
was being transmitted instead of
his words,
Free Drinks in Error.
His speaking tours brought hint
some amusing experiences. At New-
port, Mon., where he, Freddie
Grisewood, gardener Middleton, and
Donald McCullough, as visiting
Brains Trust, were first to be given
lunch by the Mayor, they were niet
at the station by a municipal car,
and a liveried chauffeur drove thein
to an imposing mansion, The dining
room( table, they noticed, was laid
for only three, but on the side-
board were bottles of, gin, whisky
and sherry, so they helped them-
selves,
A woman caste in and asked:
"You are the gentlemen in the
judge's suite, aren't you?" They dis-
covered then that they had been
taken in the wrong car to the
judge's lodgings instead of to' the
hotel, and while he -who arrived
by the sane train -paced the sta-
tion yard they were in his private
room drinking iris sherry,
Comdr. Campbell heard of a re-
viwalist meeting ill Vancouver, An
usher at the entrance saw a Bri-
tish sailor who had been doing him-
self %yell, and invited him in, He
followed the usher, who led hint
to the "penitents' seat," The
preacher, af,cr a fervent appeal for
converts, said: ''All those who want
to go to Heaven will please stand
up and testify."
The congregation rose -all but
the sailor, who was nearly asleep,
"Hi, you sailor, called the preacher,
noticing him. "Don't you want to
go to Heaven?" The tar roused.
himselfand became aware of his
surroundings. "Ye s," he replied,
"but not lvi,h a ruddy excursion
party,"
11'hcn Comdr. Campbell was do-
ing his reserve training in 11•\I.S.
Juno, the governor of a convict
prison near the port invited the
ship's officers to visit it. In the
garden he pointed out a dark, thick-
set elan working on the path who
was not in convict clothes and
smoking a cigarette, "That's the
elan they couldn't hang," he said.
It was Lee, the Ilabbacombe
murderer, At the first "execution"
the flaps, when the bolts were
drawn, refused to drop. He was
taken back to his cell, and the gov-
erncr ordered a• bag of cement of
Lee's weight to be placed out the
flaps, which at once opened when
the bolts wore drawn,
'1.'wo more attempts were made,
but each time the flaps failed. He
was given his "freedom,"
Later on, a warden told the
Commander that the prison car-
penter, convinced of the innocence
of Lee, conceived the plan when
preparing the gallows,
Hangman's "Perlis"
In those days the flaps suet in
the centre of the platform on
which the condemned man stood.
The carpenter carefully bevelled the
top edge of one of thein. There was
a certain amount of play at the
hinges to allow for the fall, and
he somehow Managed to warn Lee
to step o11 the left-hand flap and
keep his !weight there, Thus, the
flap slid just under the other and
remained jammed. Bt- when the
bag of cement was placed on both
flaps they dropped when the bolts
were withdrawn,
"I can imagine the .prisoner nest
have had a queer feeling the first
time he heard the creaking of those
bolts ",Comdr. Campbell comments
in his entertaining new book, "In-
to the Straight," "Anyhow, the plan
seemed to work."
In a train crossing :(('nada the
Commander met a short fat man,
who showed hint a large badge in-,
scribed "Public Hangman" and
said proudly: "Yes, that's my job 1
I've just finished a batch of three
in one go, up 'country." He then
produced a gold ring, saying: 'lake
this, sonny. I took it off the finger
of one of the men I dropped, You
see, if no one claims things in
twenty-four hours they're my
'perks,'" The Conunander declined
it with thanks.
Later this cheerful companion
produced a photograph of a fat,
smiling daulsel-"My daughter" -
and asked: "Are you a Married
elan?" At the reply "Single"' a
strange look crossed his face,
"Do you know, - sonny, because
of the job I'nr doing -which' is of
national importance, isn't it? -no
one will marry the girl. If you'll
take the job on 1'll pass over a
thousand bucks and fix you in good
work,"
Whether the "good job" con-
sisted of following in father-in-
law's footsteps Colndr. Campbell
cannot say, but "he was very much
hurt, when I turned down his offer
of a bride!"
This typifies the remarkable
stories in "Into the Straight," which
covers broadcasting, lecturing, and
at sea.
"Waiter, I'll have a pork -chop
with fried potatoes, and I'd like
tie chop lean,"
"Yes, sir. Which way?"'

As I've written mote than once,
most Canadian families do not cat
nearly enough liver for the good
of their health, The trouble is, of
course, that too many housewives
have been in the habit of serving
liver plaint fried, in slices or chunks,
without any thought of try'ng to
make it more appealing to .the eye
and taste, especially of the young-
sters.
Saved in the fol',u I'm going

liver slakes a really substantial dish,
savory and flood—a dish which,
with possibly a leafy green vege-
table and fluffy mashed potatoes,
would be welcome ou most any
dinner or supper table, 1 do ,hope
you'll fry it—the addition of the
apple makes a vast difference,

Largest Children's Hospital
Has Stroller Parking Lot

Just For Children—is this new Toronto hospital, Everything
for the comfort of youthful patients is included in 11 t structure.
The world's largest hospital just
for children — 'where no chUci
knocks in vain" has now opened
the doors of its new $12,500,000
building fur its• first 400 new pa-
tients,
The 14 -story building was de-
signed like a Lilliputian city as
-new headquarters for the Toronto
Hospital for Sick Children, whose
patients have cone from all over
the world since it began 75 years
ago.
There is even an •indoor parking
lot—with attemlant—for baby car-
riages kir the yotunger patients
who arrive on wheels, About the
only facility not on a junior level
are 'the • light switches, 'l'hcy have
been deliberately put at a /higher
then usual level so juvenile hands
can't play with them,
The, whole ground floor, of the
building is devoted to clinics, since
the hospital has the largest' out-
patient clientele 'of any hospital for
children, In the crowded old build-
ings, the new structure replaces,
70,000 out-patients were treated last
Year,.
Afuclt of the equipment in the
new hospital was designed espe-
cially by the'staff, A. portable am-
bulance for the prematurely born
babies contains a compartment for
itot water which is warmed up as
soot') as physician. or 0uesc phones
that the ambulance is needed, The
ambulance has a little crib and
blankets, a thermometer to tell
the heat of the box, and a screened
ventilating outlet so tli? baby can
breathe as soon as it is placed in
the box and the lint has been closed;
'hh(e hospital has its' own bath-
ing pool with a hydraulic eleva-
tor to allow paralyzed children
to receive therapeutic treatments,
and another arm-Itigh pool for ex-
crcisc of paralyzed arms,
In the infant swards and Wee.
lions disease wards there are ultra
violet tray light barriers to ensure
full protection fon' the children,
There are special soundproof
rooms .fon' trcatn►ent of the deaf.
And tltere are playrooms for the
convalescents. Baths are on pedes-
tals to enable the nurses to better
help the young patients, and toi-
lets and washbasins for pre-school
age patients arc made in Lilliputian
size and at the right height for
their' use, There is even a toy shop,
The hospital has 632 hospital
beds, varying from. tiny cribs. for
infants to those for -older boys
and girls to about 14 years of age,
Visitors to children under two years
of age will only be able, to sec the
patients from behind, glass walls.

Young Lever's Genius Started
Vast Business That "Floats On Soapsuds"
just ninety years ago, when soap
was still a highly -taxa( luxury, a
nine-year-old Bolton schoolboy ad-
ded another extension to his rabbit -
hutches and had a brainwave. If
he put four inches of soil on top of
the hutches and planted (wheat, he
deckled, the crop would mean
cheaper rabbit food.
Shortly afterwards the young-
ster, 1Villiant 11esketh Lever, found
himself cutting and. wrapping soap
in his father's grocery business, and
that gave Iiint another idea. Soap
was then sold in Tong factory hare,
which the grocer sliced to suit. the
customer, Supposing one could en-
sure a pure soap and ~sell it ready -
rapped: .
Colossal Development
It's still less than seventy amaz-
ing years since Lever (cent into
business with has brother. Itis first
soap was made in a hired factory
with a capac.ly of only twenty tons
a week, Yet today the organization
he founded sells over at million tons
of soap a year, two-thirds of all
the soap sold in the British Em-
pire writer L. \C. Phelps -- Or:on
in "Answers."
On this ocean of soapsuds floats
Britain's biggest business firm .. .
a £273,000,000 corporation interest-
ed in everything from parlor oil to
penny candles, front shoe -ice to
chicken noodle soup, Although ten
per cent. of the world's soap 01111)111
is Lever -wade, soap represents only
a fraction of their £800,000,000 an-
nual turnover,
Last year Lever Brothers and
Unilever atlso produced nearly 2,-
500,000 tons of vegetable and animal
oils, 981,000 tons of margarine,
£40,000,000 worth of cocoa, and
about £ 15,000,000 worth of toilet
preparations.
They hat 1i led 706,00(I tons of pea-
nuts—compare this with tine meagre
2,000 tons yield of the Govern-
ment's peanut scheme -- and in
crashing copra, palm kernels and
other oil crops they conjured tip
2,000,000.tous of cattle food.

industrial empire owning or con-
trolling 571 different companies in
more than forty countries, •
"I have an insatiable thirst for
expansion and the trial of novel
methods," Lord Leverhttlntc used
to say, \Vheu he built the world's
largest soap factory and the first
model town at fort Sunlight, he
teemed with ideas that. we regard
as 11Ctt' CVCtt now,
He devised profit - sharing and
co-pe"tnership, pioneered the eight-
hour day and actually suggested a '
six -hour day, in reality at two -shift
day which would work machinery,
twice as lung with lover overheads,
Expanding, amalgamating, how-
ever, Lev'erltttlnte himself could not
have dreamed of the real future of
the business that began on boards
and trestles in a grocer's top roost,
Back in 1911, for instance, his
quest for raw soap materials gained
a valuable 1,875,000 - acre develop-
ment concession itt the Congo, pro-
vided he paid agreed minimum wa-
ges asd built schools, ltospitals, and
houses for the natives, Similarly,
in 1920, he bought up the Royal
Niger Company, a royal charter
business which purchased oil-bear-
ing crops from the native growers
and sold I uropean merchandise in
Fe(((rn.
• The African Trail
Today, tltese gains have resolved
. into the United Africa Corporation;
employing upwards of 40,000 Afri-
cans in the .Congo, another 30,000

This Wall May Stand
For 2000 Years
One Wool has changed the face
of London.
1\'hen 44 -year-old John Datson,
a' Cornish mason, heard that he had
been chosen to build the fine new
river trail that bounds the Festival
of Britain site on the south bank
of the 'I'Itanics, lte rolled up Itis
shirt -sleeves, Now he has finished
Itis enormous task ahead of sche-
dule,
Every piece of the $1,000,000
worth of Penryn granite facings
used in the 10811 has been laid by
him, with assistance only from la-
bourers. He worked so steadily
that sometimes he ran out of stone
and had to wait for new deliveries.
Altogether he handled over 3,000
tons of granite.
It took eighty masons to cut
and dress enough stone in the
quarries to keep him going, Each
block had to be cut to fit the
vertical curve of the wall and num-
bered to fit into the predetermined
position on John Datson's working
prints. Even then he had to dress
some of the stones himself—and
the granite is the hardest in the
(world.
One of the Labourers fell from
the staging and was drowned, A
would-be rescuer neatly suffered
the same fate when ine found ice
could not swim against the fast -
flowing ebb tide, After the: tragedy
Datson worked on doggedly, A
recent test showed the (wall to be
dead level and his work accurate
to one -sixteenths of an itnclt.
When the Victoria Embankment
was built eighty years ago, backed
against brickwork, it was consi-
dered one of the wonders of the
world, The nee' south bank wall
i+ backed by reinforced concrete,
and 130,000 tons of debris from
blitzed buildings tills in the reclaim-
ed hind to a depth of 110 feet.
Nlubt of Datson's careful and pa-
tient work was done below the
level of the Thames. For each sec-
tion
eation a coffer -dam was stntic, like a
great (octal box driven 1)3' powerful
pile hammers deep through the
river -stud to the blue J.oulon clay,
'I'Itc foundations of the wall Inc
36 feet below the bed of the river.
John \Vatsoit looks with pride
at the bulwarks and stairways of
his river wall. Over 1,800 years ago
Jladrian signed orders for a wall
to be built between 1' ngl,tiul and
Scotland, and now it is just a
stretch of rubble. 11 It experts say
that I)atson's wall will still be
here and as good as ever—aside
from atom bombs and other acci-
dent! -2,00(1 years from now.
"Pound A Word" For
Swearing Parrots
One of the strangest societies
in the world has been founded to
discourage the teaching of swear
words to parrots, The society
claims to Itat•c "affected the lives"
of more than 180 parrots, It has
220 members.
Some people, however, prefer a
parrot capable of omitting a few
lurid oaths. A London pct shop
owner recently advertised for talk-
ing parrots, and announced that he
was willing to pay £.1 for every
separate swear word the birds could
habitually utter,
Ile is. said to have paid £50 for
one bird that swore so fast and
steadily all the doors and windows
had to be closed so that the police
couldn't hear.
Many people consider parrots the
most delightful and entertaining
companions and spend hours teach-
ing them new words, It is best to
get a young but acclimatised bird
about eighteen months old froth a
reliable dealer, and undertake its
entire education oneself.
A talking parrot does not begin
speaking until the end of its sec-
ond year. Its choice of swords atid-
conversation, therefore remain en-
tirely in the owner's hands, and
all fear of a sudden stream of in-
vective or of sentences unfit for
polits ears is avoided.
Not long ago police in Durban,
South Africa, rushing into a house
from which arose the cries of
"Murder! Murderl"
They found a quite hysterical
parrot out of its cage and hope-
lessly entangled with a ball of wool,
clinging to the window edge and
shrieking its head offl
Parrots scene to thrive on pub-
licity,
Recently a green and red parrot
escaped frons his cage.
He fleet' into the gardens of Marl-
borough Ilottse, Queen Mary's
London residence, and there he
stayed till photographers and re-
porters arrived.
To have been found in any other
garden would have meant obscuri-
ty, but since it was Queen Mary's
garden the parrot's escape was
paper on both sides of the Atlantic,
An elderly woman was taught
bridge. One evening, while arrang-
ing her cards, she dropped one
and, picking it up, observed: "No
one saw that king, did they?"
"Hush, Granny," said her part-
ner, "you shouldn't mention which
card it was."
"It's all right, my dear: I didn't
say it was the king of diamonds."

• It is time to apply the sound
law of supply and demand to
this problem of yours. It will
soon show you just where you
stand in this man's future plans.
I expect that through all these
months you have given hitt ail
your leisure time, Giving: him
every date he asked for, having
hint for dinner, placating Iris
moods, and in other ways mak-
ing hint feel that you are happier
with hien than you might be
with any other man.
* That is natural to a woman
who is in love.
But it often spoils the elan to
such a degree that he believes
he can treat her as he likes—
Accept everything she offers, and
refrain front committing himself
in any tray, In other :words,. he
takes her for granted.
—Until he find out there is
competition for her favours.
It is especially true of this
friend of yours. He has his own
comfortable home, which is.prob-
ably well-managed. Ise has his
children to visit when he wants
to sec than, He has you to en-
tertain hila when he will. 11c is
very comfortable as things arc,
thank you.
He had better find e.ut hots
comfortable he would be if he
could not see you at all, Then
4' he tvilj know whether you are
4' really necessary to his complete
happiness—or whether he can
4' get along very well alone,
4' No matter what he decides, 1
4` thins: you would be more come-
'' fortable, too, 'relieved of this un-
"' certainty, wouldn't you?
4' If you have other men friends,
start seeing them nolo. If you
4' have not, visit your woman
* friends, go out with them, or
• simply tell hint you arc occupied
4' somehow, Make any c::case you
4t want --but don't see hill' every
time he wants to come, If he
4` is used to dropping in without
* notice, tell hint \Then he arrives
* that you are sorry, but you're
4'' busy tonight. Let hint wonder
' where, and with whom.
*
hien of middle age ;,re often
too complacent. They are self-
satisfied and deliberate. They
dislike changing their accustomed
routine, and, unless they are
forced into a decision, they put
it off as Jong as possible.-- All
of which is unfair to the wometi
in their lives,
'!'his man's excuse that he
"isn't ready" to introduce you to
his family gives you ample reason
to hasten his courtship --if, that
is what you avant.
Go ahead. At least, you will
know where you stand. ( By the
way, are your children fond of
him, and he of then'? This is
an important angle to he con-
sidcred.)

Bells Tolled For Young And Old—Cupid recently un -notched two arrows in an apparent at-
tempt to prove that age shields no heart from his missiles of love. The roguish archer chalked
up one direct hit on two Londoners, 78 -year-old Mrs. Mary Marshall and Richard White, age
70. Only a few days after the bride, a widow with 11 grandchildren and seven great-g'rand-
children, walked down the aisle of London's ,Church of the Sacred :Heart with her hobby,
12 -year-old Virginia Pennell announced her marriage to 19 -year-old Donald (dray. Mrs, Gray

There is an early morning pro-
cession at Ginger Farm that is
really funny to see. if Partner is
a bit late conning in for break-
fast I naturally hatch for hifn from
the kitchen door or window, And
this is what I often see and hear,
First, although they are still out
of sight. 1 hear the dogs barking.
This indicates Partner has left the
barn. Then through the little gate
whist: separates the barnyard from
the garden 1 sec Black joe coating
racing along, tail in the air, sleek
coat shining in the sun. Once
through the gate he stops and
waits. The reason is obvious as
Rhos! inttncdiately Tippy ' and
I' -Honey conte along, barking and
jumping around each other with
early morning exuberance, '.!'hen
there is a clanging of pails . .
Partner is -malting his tray through
the little gate while the dogs get
in his way as he walks, a fact to
which neither he nor the dogs pay
much attention.
Joe still waits at the gate,
watching the antics of the
dogs with :vary eyes, Now Partner
and the dogs are almost at the
house. It's safer nosy—Joe comes
on the run, a black. streak leaping
along the ground—so Joe is already
there when Partner and his pails
reach the woodshed door. Now the
dogs stop their fun in anticipation
of being let into the house, 'I'hc
outside door opens—followed by
absolute pandemonium in the wood-
shed. 'Then the kitchen door opens
—and in come dogs, cat, Partner
and the pails. invariably Partner

Honey on her mat by the stove,
Joe in the pantry exploring her

getting washed up for breakfast.
For awhile there is peace and quiet-
ness. We have breakfast, tall; and
listen to the news—and generally
the news is the sounding gong for
our breakfast conversation, And
., so it goes. \Ve have more or less
made of our breakfast hour a time
of leisure. The early morning- chores
are over . the work of the day not
yet begun . so we take this
time for ourselves knowing there
are not likely to be any iuterrup•
tions, But as the day wears on—
well, on a farm you never can
tell. There might be a sick cow.
or a nese calf, or a Mineral -selling
agent, or maybe a neighbour drops
in—to say nothing of telephone
calls.
Perhaps this story of our break-
fast .hour sounds .as if Partner and
I live a very leisurely life, Actually
we don't—but we do try to live an
"unhurried" life, As yott-kliow there
is such a thing as ,making haste
slowly.
These days the ctnphasts is on
speed and short working hours.
Under such conditions it is impos-,
siblc to make haste slowly, You
can't crap 12 flours work into an
8 -hour day without hurrying—or
without suffering physical and men-
tal reactions. There is far too much
hurry; loo much anxiety to get
done with the day's work and off
for a good time. And since that
good time often results in late hours
and ' over -taxed nerves those who
thus indulge get insufficient rest to
prepare themselves for even the
eight-hour day that follows, 'No
wonder people get high blood pres-
sure and nervous digestion,

It is bad enough for young people
but :when older folk try to keep

And yet how difficult it is to
avoid the stress and strain of being
hurried. Now that stores and of-
fices close so early those who would
do business with th•enl must hurry
with their work, whether their
business is at the bank, a parcel 'to

"'Time and tide wait for no ratan"
—neither do shops and offices.
Actually this craze for short
working hours creates a paradox.
People are so busy trying to gct.

SIMPLICITY
There is a simplicity about the
resting world of winter that is nei-
ther stark nor colorless, once the
eye has accustomed itself to the
season. ft is elemental and direct,
and thus has its own clean beauty,
which is euchanced by winter it-
self, by the long shadows and the
temperate highlights, But it is so
different from the full color of
autumn and from the burgeoning
greens of spring that it is our habit
to dismiss it as a time of dull greys
and lusterless browns,
What it comes down to is ele-
mental form,. A tree in winter is
so obviously a .tree, skeletonized
to its very branch and twig. You
can sec every inch of it, every ridge
of its bars: and every bud -knob.
Yet there it stands, firmly rooted,
strong in its upthrusting trunk,
purposefully branched to withstand
the stoma and at the same time to
spread its leaves to the sun in a
proper season,
'1'lle . sante is true of the (tills
themselves, Thele they stated, their
skeleton of rock substantial against
the weather. The marl; of cen-
turies is upon them, the gouge of
ice and the knifing of swift water;
but they rise above the valleys in
clean ridges that direct the winds
and breast the storms, And the
streams which flow at their feet arc
brooks and rivers, the flow of win-
ter waters, unshaded, unshoaled
'except by the ice of winter itself,
their sole purpose to drain the land
before the floods of spring.
Even the snow on such a land-
scape has this same simplicity,
carved and shaped though it is by
the wind, 1s there anything more
beautiful, in the purely esthetic
sense, than a snowdrift curled in
the shape of the storm's breath?
In its cold, cleats way it scents to
sunt tap the direct, unembellished
beauty of our icy months.
FAIR COMMENT
A religious speaker was expound-
ing on the great work of the church
to a motley crowd in Hyde Park.
Some of 1;13 remarks infuriated
gritny proletarian who worked his
way to the front, Looking con-
temptuously at the speaker, he
snarled: "The church is supposed
to have existed for two thousand
years and yet look at the state of
the world,"
The speaker looked intently at
his interrupter and said, quietly.
"Water has existed for two million
years, yet look at the state of your
facet"

Plan To Drain The
Mediterranean Sea
German experts have made a titin
based on a plan for uniting thr land
masses of Europe anal Africa by
controlling the water level of the
Mediterranean Sea.
The plan was first developed by
German architect Socrgel before
the war, and it wa; one of Hitler's
boasts that if he defeated the Allies
he would change the face of the
earth by using it.
At the filet's first showing ilt
Munich recently Sncrgcl said the
project would create a new contin-
ent. The artificial lowering of the
Ilicditerancan would enable some
half a million square miles of fertile
land to be reclaimed from the sea.
To bring this about Soergel would
build a mighty dant across the
Straits of Gibraltar and keep out Ihe
Atlantic Ocean, which sweeps in
at the rate of 1(10,000 cubic yards of
water every second.
He is said to have proved mathe-
matically that once the tvater supply
from the Atlantic is cut off the
Mediterranean will disappear at the
rate of about 5 feet :', inches a year
by evaporation,
Itis Atlantic Dant would arch
out into the ocean across the
Straits of Gibraltar. It would be
500 yards thick at its base on the
sea-bed, and taper gradually to 50
yards at the top to withstand the
tremendous pressure of water. No
flood -gates would be provided,
Obsolete Ports
'1'hc advantages Wright be great,
since the draining of the Mediter-
ranean Sea, as it is now, would pro-
vide a• vast new land area in an
over -crowded Europe,
Seaports would become obsolete
all round the present Mediterranean
coast, but the new land would com-
pensate for these losses.
Socrgel points out that it would
not be possible to drain complc:sly
the entire Mediterranean basin, 'l'o
do this another dant across the
Dardanelles would be needed, and
four big rivers which empty into
the Mediterranean — the Ebro,
Rhine, Po, and the Nile—would
have to be diverted.
If this project ever materialized,
scientists say it would result in a
change of climate favourable to
Northern Europe and especially to
the.,British Isles, bemuse the Gulf
Stream would be rendered much
more effective.
At present this warming current,
which flows across the Atlantic to
° British shores, is cooled by cold
water which flows deep through
the Straits of Gibraltar into the
Atlantic.
Experiments have shown that
despite the considerable inward
flow of Atlantic water into the Me-
diterranean there is at the bottom
a counter current of extremely cold
water, which not only cools the
Gulf Stream but diverts its course
and prevents it reaching the contin-
ent of Europe directly.
Trains On Sausages
The council lie Tipton, England,
is laying out a public garden—to be
known as the Jack Holden Garden
—to commemorate the running rec-
ords of forty-three-year-old Jack
Holden, who, last August, won the
European Marathon at Brussels.
When Jack lost his • shoes during
the Empire Gaines Marathon last
February, his feet, hardened by a
quarter of a century's running, sus -
taints' hint.
Sausages made by a firm for
whom he is head groundsman arc
usually part of his training diet.
He also thrives on hipbone steak
and raw eggs, and was seen to
finish a marathon of twenty-six
miles showing not the least sign
of distress, Holden is 5 ft. 5 in.
tall and 'weighs about 140 •pounds.
He was a-- foundry worker at
thirteen and has since won events
over every distance frons • one• mile
to thirty miles. Many think' hint
superior in many ways to the great
Nurmi.
Bright Plaids Invade Bedrooms
BY IEDNA MIiLES
CpLA1D, which may be found everywhere these days
from a child's hair -bow to a man's dinner jacket, has
invaded the boudoir with a bang.
13righl, bold colors and forceful patterns give a ,new
look to rooms that once bespoke a rather timid femininity
in pale pinks and blues.
if your daugI1 is a teen-ager, chances are she's mad
about plaid, and would happily repeat the tartan of her
favorite skirl all over her room.
This being the case, let gaiety prevail and go all-out
with matching coverlet, petticoat and pillow sham for her
bed. And repeat the pattern in ruffled draperies. The
effect is as lively as a football rally.
Perhaps you, loo, feel your bedroom could use a bit
of vibrant pattern. Your husband in particular should be
pleased with a change. Few Wren find lacy ruffles to their
taste.
An eye-catching effect is achieved when you adorn your
bed with a plaid petticoat, a harmonizing coverlet in n
solid color, and a plaid bolster. Leave your draperies
plain to tone in with Ibis more subtle combination.
This dancing plaid bedroom - ensemble, made of sewn,
tailored and ruffled cotton taffeta, should bring gaiety to
any room. The staccato plaid set includes petticoat, cover-
let, pillow sham, curtains and valance.
TIILFA2N FRONT
Just who Richard D. Resler hap-
pens to be I do not know. But
recently a friend sent me a clipping
of an article by that gentleman
which was so interesting that I
am going to quote it almost in
its entirety. Mr. Resler writes like
a man who knows what's what; and
although what he says refers spe-
cifically to conditions in the United
States middle West, there's plenty
of food for thought for folks here
in Ontario as well.
* *
is farming a one-man job? Can
one man farm alone and do the
gest job,'even with plenty of labor
saving devices?
* * *
I believe not. Farming is a two-
man proposition because a two-man
farm can be trade more profitable
than a one-man farm. Two men
can supply 24 months labor each
year, while one man is tied down
24 hours a (lay, 365 days a year.
Consider also (now conveniently
two mien can share their farm by
taking turns going on vacations,
working together, caring for extra
livestock in the winter and sharing
field work in the summer and fall.
Also, if one man is injured or is
ill the other can take over tempor-
arily without loss of time and the
expense involved in hiring help.
* *
• One farmer in Iowa stated that
he had more money invested in
machinery than in land: A check
of 300 Iowa farms over a period of
14 years, front 1932 to 1946, proved
that while the acreage in crops, and
the number of livestock on farms
has scarcely changed, three months
of manpower was replaced by
$1,200 worth of machinery. With-
out a doubt, (tired :nen do not
cost $400 a month, to say nothing
of the advantages of a two-man
partnership in • saving machinery
cost.
* * *
A North Dakota farmer was wor-
ried over a $20 an acre investment
in .nmachinery. I-Ic farmed 1,200
acres with. a total investment of
$24,000 worth of machinery, Ilow
far can we go as a natter of good
business, in investing in equipment
to replace labor? Power machinery
cost per crop acre on Northern
Illinois farms, in 1945, averaged
$9.65 an acre, one-half again higher

than before the war, '('hese costs
are almost imposible to cut because
your honey is already invested.
*
Now the question arises: What
to do? I have mentioned the advan-
tages of a two-man farm, Since the
money is already invested you must
up production -per -acre to cut down
large over -head costs. By • adding
extra help to care for additional
livestock, such as dairy cow's, feed-
er cattle, more brood sows, and the
feeding of all grain produced on
your farm, you will increase the
productivity of your farm, over a
period of years. This is an endless
cycle of feeding livestock to add
fertility to the soil to produce more
feed for more livestock.
* * *
Let us assume that we are going
to have a two-man fares, We come
to the problem of securing this
second man. I present the' first
choice for every fanner, his son
or sons, In case he has no softs,
maybe someone else's son might
be interested. In Illinois, in 1940,
35% of the farm •operators were
over 55, whereas in 1920 only 24%
wcrc beyond teat age. Also we find
that each year three out of every
live boys are "pushed off the land."
That is, for every five boys 18
years of age, only two farm posi-
tions were vacated. These boys
must find work elsewhere. In the
past half century the excess young
sten from farm have been absorbed
by industry and, professions. '('his
shift from country to the city can
be expected to continue.
* * *
I wish to call your attention to
the advantages and qualifications
of a father -son. partnership. This is
one of the best opportunities to
make a two-man farm.
* * *
The boy, however, must be inter-
ested and qualified. Young men
with experience, training, even tem-
perament, good health, and educa-
tion arc needed. A boy handicap-
ped in any way that might hinder
his farm work may be better off
in town. Boys not interested in
farming or whose wives do not
care for the counitry way of life
are better off in another occupation,
Onc of the best ways for boys to
get started, and also something for
fathers to look forward to, is the
progress of the sons in 4-H and
F.F.A. activities. A small project
started at an early age and en-
larged through the years into a
well rounded farming program
which supplies a suitable income,
is a good sign of an interested boy,
a good manager, and probably a
good partner. All these points
should be considered before a boy
is chosen to make up a father -son
partnership,
* * *
Next you roust consider the pro-
visions of. the partnership, Living
quarters should be provided. The
business must be large enough to
furnish both partners sufficient in -

OUR FIRST LESSON IN WOODCRAFT

conte. 'The size of the farm is not
the important factor because man-
agement overcomes size.
* * *
Shares in the profit should be
determined by the amount of each
person's contribution. Adjustments
must be made from time to time
enlarging the son's investment until
he reaches an equal base with his
father, This is done as the son
matures and helps to keep the
partnership running smoothly.
* ,, *
' Good management is important
to the success of the farm,- and it
should be shared) equally by both
partners. In order for the farm
business to make money, crops
must produce high yields, animals
must do well, and machinery must
be efficiently used, Records must
be accurately kept and the partner-
ship should be in writing to pre-
vent misunderstanding, to support
income tax returns, to stake it
completely business -like, and legally
binding to both parties,
* -„ *
The actual method or agreement
made between father and son will
vary from case to case, There are
three basic ways to forst such a
partnership and I shall present
them to you. Remember, each part-
nership will depend on capital in-
vestment, capital accumulated, la-
• bor involved, size of enterprise, and
the number of members in the
partnership.
* „ *
In the first plan the son furnished
only his labor and bis share of the.
management. Annual settlement is
nnade on a cash and inventory basis,
* * *
The second plan is similar ex-
cept annual settlement is made on
a cash income and disbursement
basis, with change in inventory con-
sidered only in final settlement.
* * *
The third and. best plan for a
son with some capital and overhead
is for the son to furnish one-half
of the operating capital plus his
own labor and his share of the
management. Each party is paid
for his contributions. Here are
three plans which have been tried
and proven successful tri our com-
munity.
*
Whether you live on a farm or
in the city, you. should be inter-
ested in developing father -son
partnerships because of effects it
may have on our food supply and
economic conditions in our country.
*
Do those of you who farm be -
live that your farm is producing at
the height of productivity? Can not
the machinery costs per farm acre
lie cut by two men? Add more
livestock aitd start the endless cycle
to build tip your farm, Keep the
other ratan busy helping with extra
chores in winter, crop planting in
the spring, and helping with the
harvest in the fall, with enough
time in the summer for both men
to take deserved vacations. I think
that you, too, will find farming
costs per acre going down while
farni profits rise.

New Test For Cancer
Soon after Dr. John J. Bittner,
discovered that cancer -susceptible
mouse mothers transmit to their
young what is probably a virus that
produces cancer of the breast in
middle life, specialists in cancer
research have speculated if a similar
virus or "milk factor" accounts for
cancer of the breast in women.
Dr, 13ittucr experimented with in-
bred mice of known ancestry, but
there is no corresponding material
on which to base trustworthy con-
clusions that apply to human be-
ings. Most of us do•not know who
our great -great-grandparents were,
whereas Bittner knew the genealo-
gies of his pure, inbred mice for a
hundred generations and more,
• With the •aid of the electron mi-
croscope, minute spherical particles
can be seen in samples of milk ob-
tained from nursing mice known to
carry the virus or milk factor. Simi-
lar spherical particles have also
been found in cancer cells or cancer -
cell extracts. On the other hand,
milk obtained front female mice
that are highly resistant to breast
cancer shows very few such parti-
cles or none at all, These recent
discoveries support the view that
the milk factor is indeed virus.
