HRONICLES Gurendol.tn e FAFel There is a beautiful sunset to- , night—Easter Sunday—and it is the only nice thing that the weatherman brou4ht us this Easter week -end. \Vas there ever a colder Easter? But of course, although it is Easter, it is also March so actually the wea- ther is quite seasonable, One time we used to think if Easter came early then so did spring. But maybe it never did—perhaps it was only that the wish was father to the thought. Just recently I discovered that not everyone knows why Easter is movable nor how the date is set. This is what happens, which I sup- pose is a custom that dates back to Biblical times. Easter Sunday is always the first Sunday following the full moon which conies on or after the 21st of lfarch. If the full moon falls on a Sunday tlieu Easter Day is one week later. if the full moon costes late in March then nat- urally that meatus that Easter is not until sometime in April. IVe did not have any visitors this weed-end—not even Daughter as two of her roomers were leaving the city and two others moving in, so naturally she was busy. Maybe it was just as well we didn't have visitors—they Wright have starved! Friday the shops were closed, Saturday there was such a terrific gale 1 was afraid if I ventured out my poor little "Limey"—that is, my car—would have been blown right off the road. So I didn't get any week -end shopping done at all—and it has been slim pickings around our louse for two days. At least, that is • what I thought, but I sup• pose our "slim pickings" would have been a feast in 1118113. parts of the world, I wonder if the time will ever corse when all people, in every corner of the Globe, will have enough to eat. Even though 1 did not go to town we had all we want- ed in the way of milk, bread, eggs and other food stuffs—so had we any reason to grumble? And speaking of milk .. , wasn't that milk strike the craziest thing? All that fuss and inconvenience and no one any better off than before. Actually, if the strike had gone on %cry long, the farmers, who had nothing to do with it, would have been the ones to suffer the greatest loss. We were not affected by it at Ginger Farm as the do not send our milk to Toronto. Still on the subject of food - medical science has come up with another discovery—a diet that pro- mises greatly to relieve those who suffer with high blood pressure. The diet is mainly rice, fruit and fruit juices, with extra vitamins be- ing fee in tablet or capsule form, Experi ;tents have been going on for several years and were the result of investigations following the real- ization that Oriental races, who are big rice caters, rarely suffer from high blood pressure. Medical sci• vice does such marvellous things you wonder sometimes shy we don't all live forever. Back to Easter again . , , we didn't have any Easter bunnies around here but we did have an Easter calf. And Partner had reason to know it. By some queer quirk this little calf didn't seen to know where to find its breakfast, so Part- ner very obligingly tried to help it. The calf nosed around all over the place without making direct contact with the source of supply, and all the thanks Partner got was a sud- den, sharp blow on the mouth, He doesn't know wvhcther it was the calf's head that bumped him or whether the cow let fly with her foot; but be docs know he has a cut and a swollen lip, which is very painful and certainly does nothing to improve his appearance. What adds insult to injury is the fact that the cow was sold—and paid for— but the buyer did not come when he 'should have done .so the cow had time to produce her calf. And the only reason Partner sold the cow was so he would be saved the extra work of having her•freshenl A lot of trouble these days is caused by people not living tip to their commitments -- especially in giving service or getting repair work done. Promises are given glibly enough—"Yes, we'll be in to do that job for you next Monday, without fail." Monday comes, and the next and the next—and the job still waits. Promises don't scent to mean anything any store—a fact which increases the tension under which all people are now living. And a lot of it could be avoided. The other day I cams across a clipping in my files which gave this remarkable quotation from Abra- ham Lincoln, so applicable to pre- sent-day conditions—"Yost cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong."

Lilacs are showing green, too, a ycllower green with only the tips of, hesi- tant leaves in sight at the bud ends. Brit for the stoutest sigh of spring in the offing and the re- surrection of our green and leafy world look to the willows. Look particularly to the weeping willows. The weeping willow is an ar- boreal fountain all through the year, -green u1 summer, yellow - gold in autumn, and in winter a graceful sketch of a fountain pen- cilled against the grey slcy with swift s;roke.s of tan and grey. But when spring is in sight the weeping willow quickens as nothing else 'that lifts a branch. It is as though every branch and twig were suffused with some precious golden sap. It glows, wyithout a bud opening. it turns the colour of old Roman gold, which is like amber with a special warmth in it. Every long, graceful while comes alive. You stand and look at a weeping willow now and it scents that you can almost sec a pulse beating in it. There is no pulse, of course, beyond the mysterious processes by which the sap moves upward from farthest root to far- thest twig. And that is the same process at work in every tree. But in tite weeping willow it either starts or accompanies this peculiar alive- ness of the twigs, which shines right through the bark. It is as though they were so laden with the life -juices that they can scarce- ly wait for the leaves to open. They glow, the whole tree glows, with life and the return of spring; and seeing it we know that the stone has been rolled away from the door and spring will soots ap- pear unto us.—The New York Times, MONEY MAKING SALES OUTFIT NYLONS Guaranteed AGAINST Ii%'ISR S'TIIiNO Make extra money taking orders for Amazing N r tent guaranteed up tr three months.

THE PERIOD OF THE PATRIARCHS Genesis 15:1-6; 17:5.8, 1819 Memory Selection: I am thy shield and thy exceeding great retvtu'tl, Genisis 15:16. The period of the Patr'iar'chs be- gins with the call of Abraham (1921 11,C.) and continues through the times of Isaac, Jacob and the child- ren of Jacob in Egypt. The history of this period is recorded in Genesis, chapters 12 to 50, There arc many human -interest stories, Abraham was the first and the greatest of the patriarchs. His mem- ory is cherished by the Isfoliamnte- clans because Ile was the father of 'Ishmael:: by the Jews because he was the father of the race of Israel; and by the Christians because he is appropriately termed in the Scrip- tures, "The father of the faithful," In Ilebrews, Chapter 11, sometimes called the Westminster Abbey of the Bible, more space is devoted to hint than to any other of the ancient worthies who demonstrated faith. Before Abraham left his own land God made a covenant with hint. "I will make of thee a great nation and 1 will bless thee, and nlalce thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing; and I will bless them that bless thee and curse hint that curseth thee; and in thee shall all the families of the earth be bless- ed." Genesis 12:2, 3. But the years went on and Abraham was still childless, But God assured him that Ids descendants would be as the stars for multitude, "and he believed its the Lord; and IIc counted it to hint for righteousness," When Abram was 99 God said, "\\Valk before me, and be thou perfect." His name was changed from Abram (lofty father) to Abraham (father of a multitude), Finally the prom- ised child was born and named Isaac. God kept Ilis promise. Of his descendants was Mary the virgin, of whorl was born Jesus, the Christ child. Truly in Him have all the nations of the earth been blessed. Today the Jews arc repossessing the land given to their father Abra- ham. Soon the day will come when they will look upon Him whom they have pierced and recognize in Hint their long-awaited Messiah. Then shall the race be a great blessing to all nations. May God hasten the event. HIGH PRICED TULIPS Tulips are beautiful flowers, no doubt, but would you pay $2160 for just one perfect bulb?

When anybody dies with- out a will, there is more work for lawyers, more chance for fancily .arguments. ea * 1 1 Many tsun1cn realize this, and wish their 11u.bands did. One wom- an said: "I wish more were written about men making wills. It seems such a harts matter to talk about. When you're young, you're always wait- ing until you're older and' have more to will. For some, that is too late." * * * An older woman said "My man doesn't have a will and won't make one. He says women are too dumb to handle money." • * * Even more important than a will is the willingness of husbands to talk over farts business with their wives, 4 4 * In this, farm husbands in the fam- ilies surveyed make a good record. Most wives are like the women who commented: "Yes, my husband keeps Inc in- formed. \Ve always work together. f hear sonic %vomen say they don't know anything at all about the family business, 1 wouldn't like that." * * The poll also asked: "If your hus- band were to pass away suddenly, how much would you know about the family business affairs?

It is a title especially eye-catching to Canadian optics because over here for many years past, we have had it so gouged into us that hockey is "the world's fastest sport" that most of us have conte to believe that state- ment unquestioningly, as ,an article of faith. * * * However, the author of said article—Arthr Daley, Sports Edi- tor of The Times—is a man who has been around. Ile has watched, and reported on, more sport and a wider variety of sport than most men; and his opinions must be respected even if he arrives at a conclusion liable to cause much gnashing of teeth among the plug- gers for hockey, paid and unpaid, * * * Speed—says Mr. Daley—is an essential element of all major sports and naturally an indispensable part of all good sporting arguments. The devotee of one game is con- vinced that his favorite is the near- est thing to terrestrial lightning and that all other sports are molasses by contrast, while the fan for an- other sport holds the contrary view. * * * If it poll of sports writers were to, be taken, Daley thinks they might well vote that the fastest spot of all is jai alai—the Spanish and Latin-American variety of handball played with a basket strapped to the wrist. But, he adds, they would only serve ,up such a verdict after looking for the near- est emergency exit. * * * What determines which sport is the fastest? Is it the speed of the object in motion, or the amount of rapid and continuous action by the players? That is to 'say, speed is KS 'tC1VrAy.4 1'i#4 A.°r' qa t%;V:1;.vth'' ,,[4bdej Figure Flying -New helicopter training program includes this figure eight flying exercise.

The new ',elicopeter instruction was started in response to the growing proof of the value of the planes in Korea. relative, and a man careening down a mountainside on a bobsled at seventy utiles an hour will get a far greater sensation of speed than he would in a jet plane flashing through the stratosphere faster than sound. And speed in sports is relative too. Every schoolboy knows that a horse can outrun a plan; but how many of them know that in a 100 yard clash the horse will finish second, * r * Daley -recalls the histdric occa- sion when John Mc(r;tw, down in FIavana, promoted a race between a horse and his speediest base - runner, flans Lobert. In later years Lobcrt, when ;asked the result, used to say "1 win by a nose"—which might have been considerable of a margin, at that, as Flans had a schnozzle which was well up in the Jimmy Durantc class. * * * )low much bearing does actual speed have in rating the fastest sport? the article goes on. Gene Sarazen once drove a golf hall at a measured 120 miles per hour. The utmost speed of a hockey puck Inas been set by calibrating machines at a mere 88 m.p.h. But does that slake golf a faster game than hockey? We don't have to answer that one for you, * * * Borrowing some figures from Frank Menke's "Encyclopedia of Sport," Daley compares baseball, boxing and tennis. The great Bob Feller—when lit had that liop on his fast one—threw a baseball at a speed of 96.6 miles an hour. Joe Louis' fists were once measured as travelling at 127 miles an hour, those of Jack Dempsey 8 utiles faster than that, But a tennis ball whammmed by I3ig Bill Tilden re- gistered 151 utiles an hour. Would you say that tennis was the fastest sport of the three? That is ,unless you're a dyed-in-the-wool tennis bug. * * * Baseball produces speedy action' —at tinges. \Vith the bases full a batter rips a grounder at the op- posing shortstop, who elects to try for a double play. The pitcher throws — the batter swings — the shortstop fields the ball and tosses it to the second baseman, who catches the ball and relays it to first. Five men are involved in that play—and it all takes only five seconds to shake, * * * But that doesn't maker baseball tops for speed, The play slops at each half inning for the teams to change sides. There are long de- lays between each pitch. Even the pitcher, the busiest scan on the team, makes only about a hundred throws a gangs. There' plenty of speed—but lots of slow intervals too. Football, too, has a lot of the "pause that refreshes"—or that irri- tates if one wants continuous action. Two running play's per minute of this sixty -minute game arc about average, Although it has exciting moments, the gridiron sport is not a contender for "fastest" distinc- tion. Nor is boxing. Ring action may be fast and constant, but there is something about the Busted Beak Industry that is at cross- purposes to this groping search. It is too highly individualistic, which inay also be said of tennis and golf. 4, * * The sane thing is true of the "fastest sport"—jai alai—which is played With two men on a team, It gets its reputation from the inces- sant sprinting of the players around the court, a three -sided affair that may be 175 feet or.Tllore in length, and from the velocity of -the base- ball -type missile which they catch A SAFE OINTMENT and hurl by means of the spoon - shaped racquet wielded with one arnt. Like the games it resembles --handball and racquets—it is a game of individual speed. * * * At this point Author Daley be- gins treading on delicate ground; and it is probably a good thing for all concerned that, when the article appeared, Conn Smythe and the rest of hockey's Big Brass were probably too much engaged with the playoffs to take notice of such heresy. * * 4 It seems that when fans debate on the subject of speed—he says— they are talking about team sport. If this be so, it brings us to a comparison of hockey, which many consider our speediest game, and basketball, whose mushroom growth in the past seventeen years has no parallel in athletic history. Almost by a process of elimination the quest for the "fastest sport" designation has to rest between these two, ✓ * * When the ice game came to the U.S. from Canada in. 1924 it was called the "world's fastest sport,' The Label has 'gone unchallenged and the impression remains that hockey is faster than basketball. At the deadly risk of losing his Canadian readers. this reporter de- nies 1L. I think basketball is faster than hockey. I admit that the puck - chasers give a greater illusion of speed but I insist that it is just that—an illusion. M * * '1'o offset the illusion consider the relative speed of the players. The speed -skater wears far faster skates than the hockey player. If he can't (as has been proved) surpass a sprinter at the short distance of 100 yards, show can he ever gather momentum enough to stove faster than the scan on foot in the restrict- ed arca of a hockey court? More- over, a man wearing gum -soled shoes on a board floor has _much more maneuverability than a man wearing skates on ice. It isn't only speed afoot that counts in this over-all picture of swiftness. One must also take into consideration the flow of movement, which is more rapid on the basketball floor than on the ice. * * * The game has become so swift, so filled with 'constant action, that it has even reached into the press box. No longer can a basketball re- porter keep Itis scoring tablets and simultaneously write a running story of the game. He has to bring a "scorekeeper" with him to keep track of the avalanche of points. * * * Baseketball has sprinted ahead of its refrigerated rival iii team sliced and in the process has become the •most popular sport, In the long run, it's speed that counts. * * * To all of which—with a profound bow to Mr. Daley for his help— we merely add a couple of obser vations, Basketball was invented by a Canadian. And hockey, no mat- ter how you rate it as a sport, has yet failed, in all its comparatively lengthy history, to develop even one per cent of the crooks and double crossers that basketball has turned out in its comparatively short one, \Vhat is more, we defy basketball to produce any radio an- nouncer who can make even its speediest contest sound one-tenth as fast and exciting as Foster I-Icw- itt turns some of the slowest and creepiest hockey struggles into for the benefit of the faithful.

"A very minor part, i know," she said, shrugging her shoulders, "but one must start somewhere.' it is because of her that "spar- row" Piaf attempts to commit sui- cide.

She'll play the part of a Paris "sparrow," or street s•nger. That is cx::ctly what Edith Piaf was when she st:o•trd her career. Author Marcel .\cliarJ says Piaf is a natural. Ile declared that from the very first rehearsal she instinc- tively responded to state directing. Piaf, he say, was his stain inspira- tion when he started writing "La , P'tite I.ili." Broadly *caking, the musical is written around the theme of the eternal lovers.

"1 think vaudeville is a marvel- ous school for an actor," he says. ple thoughts and reactions. The play is also a protest against sui- cide." Co-starring with Piaf is Robert Lamoureux, another newcomer in the theatrical world. Lamoureux recently burst into fame as a radio performer over the national net- work. Before that he had appeared in a comic one -than act in music halls 111 the provinces. He is young, dynamic and handsome. Also in the cast is Eddie Constan- tine. An American, born in Los An- geles, Constantine was known as a radio performer in U.S. He met Piaf when she was singing in New York. At the experiation of her contract, he accompanied her back to Paris. In the last few months they have appeared together on a tour which took them to the Wills Written in )beer Plc.ces Queerest wiil ever wwas tatooed on a sailor's back with a signature on his thigh. properly attested and quite legal. Probably the simplest will was penned by a 1 -nigh Court judge on a half -sheet of notepaper, bequeathing .CSIlt1.000, The longest will was a 95.000 -word epie pe:nied by a y'0111an who eventually made her will the whole aim and object of her lire. Years in the Courts With the ponderous manuscript constantly at her side, friends thought she was working on a novel. Having codicil after codicil, it gave directions for the distribu- tion of over £1.000,000. Unfortun- ately she left only £20,583, and the courts took rears to clear up the muddle. More successful was the 20,000 -word will of Sir John Eller - man. A model of clarity it even had an index to the various sections and disposed of over £36,000,000. Then there was the industrialist who set his £200.000 fortune in order with fourteen words scrawled on a sixnennv will form; and Sir Henry Hamilton's famous nine -- word entailment, "To my wife; after her decease, to my daughter." Equally concise was a sailor's will, written on an eggshell, "To May. Everything I possess." A Liverpool shipowner made his will on the lining of his hat. A \wo- man painstakingly wove her last directions into a tapestry. Wills have been written on flour bags, scratched in watches on even in- scribed on wallpaper. A solicitor who fell through the ice while skat- ing on Windermere managed to support himself for a time, and, with commendable calm, scratched a few words with a penknife. Un- fortunately. the will was upset, for it was never properly witnessed. In the vaults of Somerset House, the last resting place of over 59,000,000 wills, are such oddities as a will chalked on a door and an- other written on the improvised sail of a raft by a seaman torpedoed in the Atlantic. Mortally wounded in the Pacific, an American soldier scribbled his bequests on the cuff of a nurse's uniform. Another Service man scratched his final directions on his identity disc, including his signa- ture and those of two witnesses.

It is simply this: "Keep your nose tidy!" Annie arrived at this philosophy by sticking her nose into other people's business for nearly 27 years. Even at the start, in the Fall of 1924, in Chicago, in the "age of innocence," she was wise beyond her years. Harold Gray became 30 years older' than his creation last Jan, 20. Looking back front this 57th birthday over the years, he opined that his own philosophy coincided closely with Annie's, If there has been any moral behind the multi- farious adventures experienced .by the ageless orphan, it alight best be summed up in that sante inelegant expression, "Keep your nose, tidy)" Life As It Is Mr, Gray; the Kantakee farm boy, now a plutocrat, but to his way of thinking "damned little changed by the years," hopes there has been no moral at all. In writing and drawing the strip, he has aimed to picture life as it is. He has studied humanity. In the Gray strip, Annie is the constant foil. Life flows by her like a river while she stands still, Float- ing on the tide arc both the good and the bad, Annie sizes them up, but does not try to change them writes Philip Schuyler in Editor & Publisher. "God deliver nuc from a reformer, even an honest one," Mr, Gray eja- culated the other day. "I dislike preaching, and missionaries of any kind. I don't )mean religious mission- aries exclusively. They are bad enough. Worse, in my opinion, are communistic evangelists, or evan- gelists of democracy, or the capital- istic system. Against Butting In 'Why can't we leave each other alone?

Just as trouble- some to the executors was a than whose will took five years to open. IIe had placed it in a complicated series of envelopes, the outer one marked "To be opened six yeeks after my death," the next inscribed, "To be opened a year after," and so on. Count Tolstoy wrote his will on the stump of a tree. Nelson made codicils in his diary. Wills have been made in speranto and in short- hand, and have been successfully made by gramophone record, com- plete with signatures scratched on the label. "It is much more ditlicult to tamper with a spoken will than a written one," said a. Mr. 'Theodore Mantz, of Des Moines, as he dic- tated his will into a microphone. A judge thought otherwise. "Where there's a will there's a way to break it," he -remarked. "In this case drop the subject on a tiled flfloorl" JITTER (WHAT ARE YOU MAKING? HATfPAPER FOR E-1oUR < �" ARMY "There are eternal verities easy enough for all to learn: tell the truth; work hard, save your money to be independent; in short, 'keep your n o s e tidy!' A n d that's enough." The millions who follow "Annie" in the more than 275 daily and Sunday papers pay off the author artist handsomely; possibly for constantly mirroring the composite mind of the multitude. The Gray income runs at about $130,000 a year, He says he has to work hard from 11 a.ni. to 11 p.m, seven days a week to keep paying his taxes to Uncle Sam, The 25 - room Georgian mansion his comic creatures bought on Sasco (-Jill at Southport, Conn., was recently ap- praised at $750,000. It's tip for sale. The Grays have bought another place across the bay from the present four -ace es- tate, The new 10 -roost house would just about fit in the living room at Southport, but it is set on 22 acres of land. A farm -born boy, Harold likes land. But doesn't like faring, and doesn't farm. The Roving Kind The Grays like to keep on the move. If it isn't front one house to another, it is in their 'Lincoln touring the United States or Cana- da. One summer they went abroad. But they prefer this side of the Atlantic, and "the long brown road, leading wherever you choose." The Syndicate slakes Mr. Gray keep a three months' supply of strips ahead. On a trip, if he gets behind, he'll "hole up" at a hotel for two or three days and catch up, 1-fis cousin, Bob Leffingwell does the lettering and puts in some of the backgrounds. Bob also has his own two strips, "Little `Joe" and "The General." Bob's and Harold's mothers were twin sisters, Bob is unmarried and lives in Fairfield, Conn. His Only Collaborator When Ilarold is in Southport, Bob conies to work every day at the Gray's. They have two desks there in a book -lined, study. Both can and do work while a radio blares, Television proved too dis- concerting, and was banished up- stairs. Bob is Ilarold's only colla- borator, if you can call hint that. Ilarold thinks no one can illustrate another person's ideas as well as the originator. "I'm no artist," he insists. "I've never gone to any art school, But I know what I want and do the best 1 can, Bob docs the dirty work." A common trick with Mr. Gray is to spell a name backwards. Ile doesn't like to use ordinary navies, because he's bothered enough by people who all the time are -recog- nizing themselves in a strip, attd write. in about .it, Some 20 have threatened shit. Only one, however, ever took the case into a court, On Mr. Gray's advice, the syndicate refused to settle, and after several years of asking vainly for $10,000 for a damaged reputationi, the plain- tiff dropped the whole thing a short time ago, The continuity that led to this suit concerned an OPA ration board head and the similarity of names of a Gray character, symbolical of a snoop, and of an 01'A elan in Con- necticut, Other people enjoy identifying themselves with Gray's true-to-life characters, Such a one was a 11iss Clare Treat, head of a home for incorrigible children in Jowa. Mr, Gray had never met anyone by that name when he gave it to a terrible head of a girls' home, The Jowa Treat was delighted. Who Is Annie? In the case of Annie herself, no one knows who her lost parents Capt, Joseph M. Patterson, late were, or at least no one is telling, editor of the New York Daily News and I-Jarold Gray were the obstetri- cians at her birth. Mr, Gray was on the Chicago'Tribunc at the time, Ile had been working with Sid Smith, helping him draw "The Gunips." The Captain %ranted a new strip for the News. "Make it for grownup people, not for kids," the Captain advised, "Kids don't buy papers. Their par- ents clo." • Mr, Gray was enjoying his job on the Tribune. Most of all, he liked to roans Chicago streets with other newspaper sten, 'stopping at their hangouts for a late snack, One early morning on the streets, he caught sight of a little gamin, quite evidently in the so-called age of innocence, wise as an old owl, "I talked to this little kid and liked her right away," he recalled. "She had common sense, knew how to take care of herself, She had to. Iter name was Annie. "At the time some 40 strips were using boys, as the Main characters; only three were using girls. I chose Annie for mine, and made her an orphan, so she'd have no family, no tangling alliances; but freedom to go where she pleased. "Patterson and I worked over the first strips 'together, We kept clear of violent action, such as kids like, kept our story as close to life as we could." Thus was Annie born, never to grow up, although sonic of today's readers are grandchildren of the first who followed the strip. Simple Things The young fry, if they ever pon- der on the way of life thirty to forty years ago, doubtless wonder what the old lean did to enjoy himself. Things roust have been awfully dull. No radio. No television. Auto. - mobiles that were chugging, un- dependable piles of junk, Movies that were silent, fuzzy flops , . . This bleak appraisal of yester- day gives us no self-pity. We find it a bit amusing, a bit pathetic, The average teen-ager today might deem it a fate worse than death to spend an evening at honk listening to dad read a book, Dad might think it a bit ludicrous him- self. But the fancily should try it some winter evening. They might get hold of something good. To stake the setting complete there should be bowls of apples and popcorn within easy reach. , .

But there are many plants Melt do not cart for this. Some flowers, vegetables and certain varieties of grass prefer shade, some want acid soil rather than sweet, sonic like heavy clay better than loamor sand, some ac- tually do better in poor soil than rice, '1'11e thing in planning is to con- sider these special likes and dis- likes, then to select those plants that suit ones special location. Special information in the seed cata- logues will help in plant1ing, Host vegetables, however, arc pretty keen on a generous amount of sun but they have distinct likes and dislikes in the matter of soil. For deep-rooted things like car- rots, potatoes, etc., it is important that the soils be fairly loose at least a foot down, Many types pre- fer sandy soil to clay, But no mat- ter what the soil is like to start with by a little planning and build- ing one can change it fairly easily. * .r 'k Must Like Our Climate It's a waste of time, labor and money to try to grow certain ten- der flowers or other plants which may do beautifully in Britain of the Southern United States, Our climate, soil and other conditions are not suitablq. '1'o guard against discouragement one is advised to stick to those flowers, shrubs and vegetables that arc specially rec- ommended for Canadian conditions, These are the varieties and types tested under Canadian conditions and are recommended by Canadian authorities, * Lawn Work One can't sow lawn grass seed too soon in the spring. Sonic people even broadcast over the last snow and as it melts it carries the seed down into the soft earth, On a sloping place, of course, this might not be advisable where running water might carry seed away. Good grass seed consists of a blend of several different grasses, Some of these germinate quickly, providing sonic cover and also the necessary protection for the later - more permanent sorts. For shady locations one should get a special mixture. Either for patching or new lawns, grass seed should be sown liberally and lightly raked in. Like most plants grass will ap- preciate good soil and an occasional application of fertilizer. As new grass is easily pulled out so one should make sure the mower is sharp for the first few cuttings, especially, Back in 1927 Jacob Sullivan and hula 'Thomson were divorced.

An attractive advertisement of import- ed china and glassware which she inserted in the Roston newspapers for 1773 is quited in Colonial Wom- men of Affairs. She was part owner of a vessel which was leased to the French government for a while, to help transport troops to the West Indies. She had frequent corres- pondence with a Dutch house. • '1'he leading woman merchant of pre -Civil \Var Boston, however, was a spinster who built up her business front the very beginning. When only sixteen years old she (Ann Bent) was apprenticed to a Boston firm which dealt in crockery and dry goods, and as soon as she was twenty-one (in 1789) she opened a shop of her own. She was not a frequent advertiser, evidently she attracted trade by other means, Mrs Dall wrote of Miss Bent and another shop -keeper, Miss Kinsley: "'Cltcy were the first wom- en in our society to confer a mar- ketable value upon taste. Instead of importing largely for themselves, they bought of the Ncw York im- porters the privilege of selection, and always took the prettiest and nicest pieces out of every case. As they paid for this privilege them- selves, so, they charged their cus- tomers for it, by asking a little more on each yard of goods than the common dealer." Other people pout have agreed with Mr. Doll's comment. ".[ know nothing for which it is pleasanter to pay than for taste," for ,Miss , Bent's business prospered, , .

Actually, they have just achieved the point at which veils are most necessary— and usually—most becoming. • If crow's feet, frown creases or lines have begun to mar the beauty of your face, now's the time to learn about the flattery of veils. In the same way that a softly -shaded light plays down facial imperfections, a bit of netting across your face will veil the tell-tale marks of age. Experiment a little, until you've found the veil that does most for you. The shape of your face, your hair -do and your hat are all factors to be considered. Remember, an observer's eye will see the lower edge of the veil as a line across the face. Rarely is it attractive to see a flat, horizontal line sweeping across a woman's face. This tends to make the cheeks look broad, Round the bottom of the vell upward a bit, following the contour of the cheekbones, or, if it's a long veil, the jaw line.
