the pile for winter reading •- and
ordering, 'Their bright covers flaunt
zinnias, petunias, roses, strawber-

It is a rare catalogue that doe,

novelties arc the news of the year,
'file most important one is likely

the chief reasons for introduction.
Chrysanthemum History
l'hc perennial chrysanthemums,
which lead in the number of novel-
ties this year, are typical of the
single-minded goal of seedsmcn and
nurserymen. One English -trained
gardener with whom I talked last
October said: "fn twenty-three
years, no flower has been improved
as much as the hardy chrysanthe-
mum. When I first came to this
country, American varieties were
poor, most of the English ones
were not good here, and all kinds
were poorly grown." Progress this
year is 'marked by not less than
thirty named varieties --writes Dor-
othy 11, Jenkins in 'I'I1e New York

Zinnias Are Enormous
Large zinnias remain in the fore-
ground in 1951. Burpce Hybrids

mous flowers in mixed . colours.
Peppermint Stick, with several com-
binations of Ivo -colour striping, is
strictly a novelty which may still
yield a few plants with solid colour
bloom.

hark r0 our o,,nines, everyday

to realise that our happy little family
gathering could end so Ili astrotsly.
And yet from this, as from tv. ry
new e'.pericncc, we have learned
a lot, and i; has also gidcn 115 tetany
heart-warming thoughts to trcasnt'e
for the rest of our day:. \Vhat
stands out in our memory of events
daring the.last week is the kindness
of our friends. I think.1 men,loned
that last week -but it will bear re-
peating. The day of the funeral two
of our neighbours carte in, bringing
cakes and cookies with them. \Vitlt-
out losing any time they set to
work, cutting sandwiches and mak-
ing other preparations for tea while
we were away at the service. They
helped me serve refreshments to the
twenty-five people w•ho carte back
to the farm from the cemetery. Af-
terwards these good friends of ours
washed dishes and left everything
ship-shape before returning home.
I didn't have a worry at all in that
respect. That is what it means to
have good neighbours. And I ant
quite sure it applies to country
people throughout Ontario.
Sometimes we hear that neigh-
bourliness is dying out. At times I
have thought that too. That is to
(lay, I have realised that neighbours
don't visit back and forth the way
they used to -there are not the
number of "bees" of various kinds,
or house parties like there used to
be. But yet neighbourly hearts are
still in the same places; still respond
as quickly as ever to those in dis-
tress. Because of this kindliness
that has been so very much in evi-
dence, Partner's brother and his
family have said over and over

Picture Taken

Pluto, most mysterious of all
the planets ill the solar system, has
been having its photograph taken
through the world's biggest tele-
scope -the 200 -inch Dale telescope
on Mount Palomar, California.
Dr, Gerard 1', Kuiper of the Uni-
versity of Chicago ha3 been able to
calculate that Pluto's size is touch
less than.
was previously supposed.
This furthermost planet's diame-
ter is now known to be 3,600 utiles,
or 46 per cent of that of the earth,
It is about one-tenth of the earth's
mass.
Before these observations, Pluto.
which was discovered only 20 years
ago, was believed to be massive and
heavy -a frozen and condensed
world on which life was impossible.

system All the planets -the earth
is one of them -circle in orbits
round the sun, and Pluto is farther

THE JERUSALEM ROAD
Mark 10: 35-45
Memory , Selection: Whosoever
will be great among you, shall he
your minister. Mark 10:431).
\\ jth this l'seon, Jesus is on Itis
last journey from Petea across Jor-
dan to JcrusaIC111, where l -1c would
die for the sins of thc race and
thele rise on the third day, On lits
road to greatness by the way of
the Cross, it was an inopportune
time for two of Ilia disciples 10
press their claims for positions of
distinction in Ilis kingdom. But
there has always been politics in
the Church. An editor of a church
paper published an article entitled,
The Church Boss," Thirty-five
irate subscribers wrote indignant
letters cancelling their subscrip-
tions for "the personal attack made
on 111e," ''Diotrephcs who lovc1lt
to have the preeminence," (3 John
9), is not dead yet. Jesus taught
by precept and example that "who-
soever will be great among you,
shall be your minister'," At the last
supper it was He who girded Him-
self with a towel and took a bason
of water and washed the disciples'
feet, Ile took the lowest place,
'Prue greatness is to serve, By
dying for us all on the Cross Ile
demonstrate() it more clearly.
James and John were sincere
men, \Vhcn filled with the lfoly
Spirit, that spirit. of "nue first"
gave sway to a passionate desire to
follow humbly in the footsteps of
their aster. ,lanes early experienced
the baptism of suffering. 11e was
the. first of the disciples to he mar-
tyred. Acts 12:2. history says that
of the eleven, one; joint escaped
death by martyrdom, 13ut they all
served. I.et us all learn the lesson
that greatness consists not in exer-
cising authority over others but in
serving others in the spirit of our
Lord and plaster, Jesus Christ.

Nior some news for those of you
who are inlcres1ed in bacon•—front
a producer's. not an eater's stand-
point 1 meant. From fudiana thele
j. word of a new device which
reduces the curing process front
two weeks to two days, which is
considerable of a drop.
Bach around 1925 the U,S. Agri-
culture Department first sanctioned
nitrite solution to cure pork, this
enabling the packers to do the cur-
ing in thirty days instead of the
former sixty. Next step was the
injection of curing solutions into
the arteries of hams, which reduced
the curing tittle to a matter of a few
clays. Nowadays, most ham.; are so
cured.
But it was impossible to treat
flacon similarly. However, there is
now a machine that overcomes the
former difficulties. At a recent nicct-
ing of the American Chemical
Society, Mr. \', R. Rupp, who is
ro11u'c:ed with an Indianapolis first,
stated that the machine cut the
curing time for bacon from two
weeks to a like number of clays.

Three weeks before they had
purchased the car for $40 and left
Ironies in Spokane, Wash,, with a
lunch !tacked by 'Mrs, Crosby, to
win fame and fortune, They sang
for their meals and gasoline along
the way and Bing 1ta(1 sold a drum
with a Hawaiian sunset Painted on
it to pay a garage repair bill.
Destiny had great .things in store
for the lit behind the wheel.
'1[e was the fourth of seven child-
ren—five boys and two girls—born
to dai'r'y 1.owc and lute Crosby
in Tacoma, Wash. When Bing was
live the fancily moved to Spokane.
liecattse• of the numerous child-
ren and Pop's small salary as a
bookkeeper, there wasn't much
money, Bing 'got Irk first job. 'at
1.2, chopping wood al $2 a week.
But there was music at the Cros-
by hone. '.There was an old Edison
phonograph in the living rooni,
Pop Crosby played the guitar,
Mother Crosby played the piano
and all the kids sang.
In the fifth grade, Crosby made
his acting debut—he tvaS it )limping
jack on a pogo stick. In high school
he was Atari; Antony in "Julius
Caesar." The curtain fell and .\[arts,
supposedly 'dead, rolled out of its
way, He gave much better perform-
ances on the baseball, football and
swimming teams:
At Gon?aga University, where
Bing was studying to be a lawyer,
he met Rinker, who led a dance
band. Soon Bing was beating a
drum and singing a hot chorus or"
two at school dances and in local
vaudeville. The year was 1921.
Fade to Hollywood Boulevard
in 1926 and that Ford chugging
down the street—
Ritiker's sister, singer Itfildjcd
Bailey, was living in Hollywood.
She got Bing and Al their first
singing job, ]ling rcntenthers:
"We laid two big gooey eggs."
'.there were Other jobs. A year
passed by. Not bad. Not good.
Then one night in 1927 Paul'
Whiteman caught their vaudeville
act and hired tl nt as vocalists.
Things looked bright despite 'White -
man's crack to Bing:
"With those cars and that fanny
I doubt whether you'll get any-
where."
Whiteman took Crosby and
Rinker with hint to New York
where, for laughs, he introduced
Iheni as "a couple of boys I picked
up in a 1\'ally Walla ice creams
parlor." They were a hit in a Chi-
cago stopover but flopped in New
\'ork. Whiteman was ready to fire
diem when a youngster from Den-
ver named Harry Barris suggested
he teats up with them to forst a
rio.
J t was clic birth of Paul \Vhite-
itaIut's Rhythm Boys. Their sal-
aries: $125 a week each. For two
years musically thee were hits.
.when whitewall returned to
California in 1929 for the movie,
"'.lite King of Jazz," the Rhythm
Boys did one three-minute song
number in the picture, played one
theatre date with Whiteman in
Seattle and were fired. They pop-
ped ftp back in Hollywood at a
night club with Gtts Arnheittt's or-
chestra, and moved with hint to the
Cocoanut Grove at $175 a week, in
1930.
It vias at the Grove that Crosby's
name became box office. In Septem-
ber, 1930, he was saying "I do"
to Dixie Lee. Then he quit Arnitelin
when he was refused a raise, and
again was jobless and broke.
That was the end of the Rhythm
Boys, and the start of a "new"
Crosby. lie hired his brother Ever-
ett (who gave up a trucking busi-
ness, to manage his career.
Bing Crosby, by 1931, was a
"hot" commodity,
Ile made 12 records at $125 each
for some quick honeymoon cash.
Everett sold hint to Mack Sen-
nett for six musical shorts, each
based on a popular song, at $750
a week. Remembers Mack:
"Crosby was all hands, ears and
hips. We taped back his ears be-
cause' they stuck out so far, One
day the adhesive broke loose and
Bing ripped it ot1 swearing 1
wouldn't tape his ears again. I
didn't.
+. « :
Then cause New York radio and
the "Battle of the Crooners."
Russ Coluutbo, violinst ju Aro-
heim's band, had turned singer and
was the nation's No. 1 popular radio
crooner, Within a week after Bing
and Everett arrived in New York
Bing had a $600 -a -week (soon rais-
ed to $3,500) singing contract with
CBS and a $1,000 -a -week contract
for personal appearances on the
stage of the Paramount Theatre,
where he was carried out on a crane
over the audience's heads to croon
Itis love songs. Ile was a sensation
—the biggest hit Broadway could
remember the biggest hit radio
could remember.
The money started to roll in,
and Bing,.who had learned his les-
son, kept telling Everett:
"Put it in the bank before T spend
it. Put it in the bank."
By 1933 Crosby was back in
Hollywood for his triple chores—
movies, radio and recordings. Para-
mount signed hint to his first star-
ring contract in 1932.
No longer do they tape hack his
ears.
His only concession to being a
movie star is that greasepaint and a
$75 toupee. 1Ic hates them both.
