She described the position of the Canadian and Armin i- con missionaries, both being north of the 3801 Parallel, saying; that the chris- tians in Korea did 1101 want commun- ism at any time and that it \\•8:. a mis- take to divide the country into North :1110 South.. The Russians want l -:arca for it's 1olts as their -ports are from! through the winter and China also wants Korea as a possession. Cur- rently the negotiations belweC0 the Allies and Communists were well de- scribed. Mrs. Fred Oster then en- tered the discussion with the sugges- tion that maybe the Uramian oil totes - 11011 was propaganda which would have some influence with cunvincin,4 the Koreans which side to adhere to.

WEDDINGS SPEIRAN. - DOHERTY ; A pretty wedding took place at the home of Mr. and Mrs, Garfield Doher- ty, of Blyth, at high noon on Saturday. .August 40. when their daughter, Lois Uonclda, was unite(( in marriage to Vernon R. Speiran, son of \1r. and Mrs, \V. Speiran, of Moncton. The ceremony was performed by Rev. C. J, Scott, of Blyth, in a setting of pink and yellow gladioli and yellow roses, under an arch with white bells. The bride looked lovely in a fall suit of plum wool gabardine, with grey accessories. and carried a corsage of Talisman roses. Miss Marjorie Doherty, sister of the bride, was the bridesmaid, and wore -a 'fall suit of grey broadcloth with navy and white accessories, and corsage of pink roses. Mr, Jack Watson, of London. was groomsman, A reception 'was held at the Bruns- wick Hotel; Wingham, - following the ceremony, Mrs. Doherty, :tlie bride's mother, wore a black crepe dress with !(latching accessories and a corsage of pink carnations, Mfrs, Speiran, moth- er of the grootil, wore a navy sheer dress with matching accessories, and a corsage of pink carnations. The young couple left on a. honey 1110011 trip, amid showers of confetti, through Ontario and the United States. On their return they will reside in London temporarily,, where the groom is taking an officer training course in the .RCAF, The best wishes of many- friends go wwith then, Engagement Announced Mr. and Mrs. Wilbert W. Taylor, of Auburn, wish to announce the eitgc- ment of their daughter, )lett ileent to Raymond Griffith Ilanna, of -Deli Nmoriumommonsommomossomempomm Stage Coach Days While the economic importance of the National Road was carried in its wagons, the glory and spec- tacle of the road was the stage coaches with their gleaming side panels. In their hey - day the coaches whisked travelers from Cumberland to Wheeling in twenty- ftur hours. Under pressure they could do better than that, The two hundred twenty-two utiles from Frederick to Wheeling were once covered in less than twenty-four hours to carry a special presiden- tial message, and over one stretch the stage reached an average of fifteen miles an hour. The stages were operated be regular lines, carrying such naines as "Good Intent," "Peoples," "Na- tional Road" or Lucius Stockton's popular "June Bug" line, A Jersey roan, Stockton was colorful and im- perious, and struck a patrician note es he raced over the road in his ijrivate carriage, the "Flying Dutch- man." In the early clays of the railroad, it was he who had chal- lenged the locomotive with his horse and buggy—and had won. He was a superb driver and •com- manded the respect of those 40 drove his stages. Another titan of the road was the giant six -foot -five Scotsman, James Rceside, who habitually wore a scarlet vest and tie. Called "the land Admiral," Reeside ex- panded his line to a total of four hundred amen and a thousand horses, and branched out from the National Road to haul the mail from Philadelphia to New York and other points, becoming the largest mail contractor in the na- tion. Before the corning of the rail - lead a great lore had accumulated around coaching, part of which is • presented in Thomas 13. Scaright's Homeric recollection of The Old Pike, On the National Road coaching never found the artistic expression it evoked in England, where Charles Dickens saw the nostalgia •of "past coachfulness: pictures of coaches starting, arriving, changing horses, coaches in the sunshine, roaches in the snow, coaches in Mexicart-Grown Cortisone—Will the ;'miracle" hormone drug Cor- tisone ever be plentiful and Inexpensive/ Above, a Mexican laborer carries what scientists believe to be the answer, "Cabeza de Negro," the root of a wild, poisonous plant. Synthetic Corti- sone made from the vegetable source appears to be as effective as the Cortisone derived from ox -bile being used,at present in the treatment of arthritis, critical burns and some types of cancer. the wind, coaches in the mist and rain, coaches in all circumstances compatible with their triumph and victory, but never in the act of breaking down or overturning," Coaching on the National Road did create a small literature and larger folklore. A skillful driver was a joy to watch, and the young and confident stage drivers of the old pike were proud of their skill as they rounded the sharp turns of the mountain roads , .. Color- ful and widely known by name, the stage drivers were as proud and independent as ships' captains and, while they could accept treats from passengers, were indignant when offered tips.—From "The Potomac," by Frederick Gutheint, Fifteen thousand, one hundred and twenty-seven—count them - 15,127 cash customers at the To- ronto Maple Leaf Baseball Stad- ium! And on a hot, humid, not to say sticky washday evening, al- ready!! And with the attraction NOT the Dodgers and Yanks in a World Series final, or some such, but merely Toronto and Montreal currently locked in an International League struggle so tense and nerve - lacking that only a paltry nineteen games separated them!!! We never thought we'd live to ree the day: In fact even now we can't help wondering if it wasn't just a (Ireain. But. they were there all right, those fifteen thousand odd—a big- ger baseball crowd than the Queen City has produced, excepting on some very special occasion, within the memory of the most ancient inhabitant. So it begins to look as though the Bi11 Veeck's and the Jack Cooke's are right after, all— that baseball, by itself, is all very well as an attraction so long as your, team .is up there battling for the pennant, but that when it isn't you have to jazz it up a bit. * .k "Give them bread and circuses" one of the Caesar boys—we think it was Julius although it may have been Irving—once said with regard to keeping the crowds pleased. "Give them free hot dogs and flag- pole sitters" is the way the modern baseball impressarios interpret it. • And even if it's a little hard on those who profess to look upon baseball as something - sacred and untouchable—"a great American institution" ... "one of God's great- est gifts to mankind" , . and the like—who is to say that the Cooke's and the Veeck's haven't the right idea in this cockeyed day and age? Certainly not us, we can assure you. We have always deeply sym- pathised with the haat-and-egg fighter who, after being congratu- lated for the 'steenth time on the good game battle he had put up, plaintively remarked, "Being a good game loser is O.K. but l'd like to try, just for onset, how it feels being a good game winner." •k .k Or, to put it even more succinct- ly, which would you rather have, three cheers or three backs? So go right ahead brightening up the atmosphere around the Fleet St. Flats, Mr. Cooke. Bring along the bull fighters, or David and Goliath with the original cast and see if we care. Now, for a change of pace, we turn to a sport which requires no bathing beauties, radio comedians or anything else in order to get the crowd into a (tither. In fact the spectators take an interest a lot too warm for comfort in what is des- cribed at the world's most gruel- ling race—the three thousand utile bicycle .race known as the "Tour de France." You Canadian bicyc- Jeepersi-Whizzing along at 35 miles per hour, these guys and gals on sleds hope to popularize sandplaning, a sport which combines he most terrifying features of bobsledding and aqua. . planing. Equipment for the daredevil pastime consists of a ply. woad sled; c jcc p for towing and a paid-up life insurance polity, lists who think that a Saturday or Sunday run along some of our car - packed highways is tough going, take a swivel -at what happens over there, and, find out that you don't know the half of it. •k ., •k A hundred sweating, toiling men, their tired legs thrusting machines as if their lives depended on it, work their way up the longest, I\ar(lest slope of the Pyrenees. At the summit one brown, tough - looking figure braces himself in the saddle for the long, downward swoop, It is the Italian, Bartali, 'and not one of the French aces. * * Y Before he can gain speed, ex- cited spectators crowd around hinn, "Salauds1" bawl a number of fans: "Macaroni!" .hiss others. Bartali is pulled off his machine, insulted, spat on and abused. Sonic of his countrymen, who follow close be- hind, arc 'also manhai>rllcd. Despite this, Bartali regains his machine, mounts it and achieves the descent from Col ''Aspin into Perpignan at' the record speed of ninety kilo- metres an hour, 1'Ie comes in first, shouting, "Ive been assaulted and I'm going home!" * .k * As a result, the entire Italian team withdraws fr'onn the race and returns to Italy. Then M, Schuman, French Foreign Minister, apolo- gizes to the Italian Ambassador, and for some days "L'affaire bicyc- lettc" elbows Korea front the head- lines, The French take their cycle rac- ing with. deady s/. pusness. Especi- ally the Tour de France, which appears to cause more apoplexy and high blood pressure than all the test matches since the Austra- lian cricketeri first won the Ashes. * .k * '?'our de France is one of the most gruelling physical tests in all sport. It is a 3,000 -mile -road race run in twenty-one daily stages, with a day's rest for the riders every four or five days. The daily mileage averages out at ahotlt 140 miles and is covered at approximately twenty nmiles an hour. Pretty good going. * :k Cyclistslenter from every country in Europe, Britain included; and today there is even a sprinkling of entries front Aiistralia, South Africa, the States, and some of the Asiatic countries. * * * The event, which was run recent- ly is always run • in July, the hottest of the summer months! From Paris the riders make for the west coast, then turn towards the Pyrenees and up. their 'steep slopes. These are the hardest climbs an the race, A man must be in the very pink of condition to emerge from this section with a chance of figuring among the first twenty, Some of the passes are 6,000 feet high; many of the long; grinding climbs continue for twenty utiles and the midday temperature in the shade may well be ninety! * * * Then, as a relief to the toiling men .comes the rush down the slopes from Perpignan, on the Spanish frontier, to Cannes. Froin there the ,riders go north into the French arts; more desperate, bwk- breaking, muscle -tearing, agonized climbing. The riders now reach Strasbourg, and turn finally for Paris, 500 miles away. * * * Each' day the cyclists start and finish at pre -determined points; and their times are recorded, These times arc added at the end of the event and the man with the least hours is the winner. He ntay not be the first to reach the winning post at Paris on the final day. * * k -• Is it worth tearing one's insides out on a two -wheeled Areadmill round France for nearly thirty days during the hottest period of the year? Only those . who have raced and lost can answer that question. rt Most of them describe it as thirty days of Hell. For the winners— yrs. * * M • At least $15,000 in prize money s put up before a single machine moves off, The first elan is certain of a minimum of $3,000 in cash and perhaps another $30,000 in bonuses and subsidies from manu- facturers. 1 -lis future is rosy. He, can open a cycle businessthat will aiways be well patronized, for the ntan is now a hero in the ryes of millions. •k * * The remainder of the prize- nlouey is divided among those who finish among the first dozen, and .for the first six there are, also fat bonuses and rewards. Each (lay the man who makes the best time, re- ceives the equivalent of $50 and the second man $25. ' There are numerous other prizes; awards by manufacturers and en- thusiasts for special sprints; for being the first tip this pass or down that; or for making the fastest tine over certain tough stretches. * ** The spectators are strictly par- tisan.

Only 85c from any druggist, ISSUE 32 — 1951 X TllIFMM FRONT Over vast areas of the earth, the world's Anti -Locust Research Cen- tre directs a scientific campaign against this insect menaice to our food .supplies. '1'Ihis c a rat -p a i g n means so much to every one o[ us that f thought you Wright be in- terested in some of its details as reported 'by Dr. J. S. Kennedy, in "London Calling." * * �. Locust plagues are probably as old as agriculture, Our own cen- tury has witnessed a succession of them, and now, once again, crops are threatened from India in the east to the Atlantic coast of Africa in the west, from the Caspian Sea in the north to Tanganyika in the south. bike any marauders, locusts are bad enough when you know they are costing, but they are far worse when you do not. Until a few years ago people seldom did know, and that made for a rather fatalistic attitude toVard locust in- vasions. If warnings can now be issued, that is only because over a period of years reports have been sent in to the Anti -Locust Research Centre in London from all over the world. There they have been painstakingly pieced together, un- til a reasonably connected picture has emerged of what the locusts are likely to do in the way of breed- ing and migration, in any region at any time. * + All the saute, why is it, after all these centuries, that we still have to fight the felly mobilized locust armies in this wav?'It is an ardu- ous, costly kind of war in which victory is never final, Why have we not tasted this wild competitor for our food supplies, as we have others? « * This has always been the stain aim of the Anti -Locust Centre and its director, Dr, B. P. Uvarov. But the first thing needed was much more knowledge about locusts. There is not just one but a num- ber of different kinds of locust, each adapted to life in a particular climate and a particular type of country. * * * The swarming locust is a mobile, elusive subject of study. The big- gest mystery of all was what hap- pened to tine locusts when they were not swarming, After a run of plague years not only the swarms but even the individual' insects dis- appear completely, cvcrywhere,,ouly to reappear several years later. « * * Between plague periods, locusts live like other grasshoppers, as scattered, inconspicuously coloured insects leading solitary and mostly very quiet lives. But unlike ordin- ary grasshoppers, when they are crowded together they change into a brightly coloured, gregarious and intensely restless form—so different from the solitary forts that it was once taken for another insect al. together. * * +: It was Dr. Uvarov who first made the discovery that the two so- called "species" could be converted one into the other simply by keep- ing the insects apart or by keeping them crowded together, Here, at last, was the key 'to the origin of the plagues, It was More than that: it was a discovery of lirst-class importance for biology generally, because the changes induced by crowding prov- ed to be hereditary, showing up in the offspring of crowded parents even if the offspring themselves were not crowded. * * * Biologists event ahead to exploit the discovery of "change of phase," as the transformation from the solitary to the gregarious forst and back again is called. And their \1'ot'k in the years between the wars has built up this picture of how an outbreak starts. 'rite first re- quirement is a period when condi- tions are particularly favourable for the solitary insects to live and breed, so that they multiply rapidly. For the desert locust the crucial condition seems to be unusually good rains,' so that extra genera- tions can be squeezed in before the country dries up again and breeding stops, But to produce gre- garious swarms from the myriads of scattered insects then present, a less favourable period must follow the more favourable one, When that happens, the insects can find suit- able living conditions only in re- stricted areas, and they become very crowded there. * + * Frequent meeting of insect with insect set off a traits of changes inside them, as a result of which their behaviour, colour and shape all change, They become attracted to each other yet, at the same time, hypersensitive to each other's nlovenients, so that their excitement grows until they cannot keep still. In a few generations they have ceased to be solitary grasshoppers, and have gathered into great swarm which sally forth on the restless, far-ranging flights which slake them such •unexpected and catastrophic pests. * + The important thinggis that this sequence of events can occur in only a few relatiVely, small places within the whole region inhabited by each kind of locust. The soli- taries may often become very num- erous elsewhere, but if there is little crowding no swarms are produced to emigrate and spread the danger. And since, generally speaking, the old-world locusts -live mainly in re- gions that are under -developed agri- culturally, the damage they do is not 'often serious, as long as they remain solitaries and stay at home. r * * Thus, the way to deal with the locust problem because clear, It was to locate the special "outbreak areas" and, as a first step, to des. troy the swarms there before they got away; and, as a second step, to seek the best way to alter con- ditions of vegetation, and so on, so that swarms never' forst, thus solving the problem. * * * With these amts in view, interna- tional organizations have recently been established in the outbreak areas of two of the African locusts, Success can already be claimed in suppressing outbreaks of these too, the red locust of East and South Africa and the one called the Afri- can migratory locust, whose home is tVest Africa, The third main African locust is the desert locust, which has now broken out again. It is a much more difficult ,prob- lem. Its outbreak areas are in senni-desert regions,. more minter-. ous and less constant 'its locality from year to year, and they form an interconnected series spreading across many more .frontiers, not only in Africa but away across to India. * * * '.['he trouble is that until rather recently governments have tended to pour out money to deal with a locust plague once it was upon them, but to lose interest when it eventually subsided front natural causes, Every country was inclined. to blame its neighbours for send- ing the locusts, * * « Once the necessary knowledge was available, so that a plan • for plague -prevention could be worked BY • HAROLD ARNETT WOOD SCREW EW 7,,C7 SCREW HAMMERED FLAT' A WEDGE MADE FROM' AN ORDINARY WwOD,SCREW, BY FLATTENING THE SCREW INT0 A TRIANGULAR SHAPE, HOLl7S THE HAMMER HANDLE ,n,.,; TO THE IIEAD. _ Try and Top These, You Gardeners — Two huge geraniums, the larger over 12 feet high and both a solid mass of blooms, are the pride of John Bell, gardener for the CPR at Port Mc- Nicoll's famous dockside gardens.

"Pop Goes The Weasel" Really Means That The Tailor Pawned His Iron Some of the many London shops which are featuring specially color- ful window displays to mark the Festival of Britain have been in business for 200 years and more. That is a long time to have been carrying on the same trade in the sante shop. There is a story that an eccentric Londoner decided he would only deal with shops which has been established at least 200 years, He is said to have had no difficulty in meeting his needs. In the case of the Strand first of Thresher & Glenny, shirtntakers, tailors, and hosiers, it means that Admiral Lord Nelson used to step over the same threshold at 152 Strand where festival visitors to London now are entering to buy anythingfront a finely tailored suit to a festival tie. It is quite a thrill in itself to enter this shop and recall that Lord Nel- son, after losing his aria in battle in 1797, called in on his return home for his usual order of stock- ings. He was greeted by Mr. Thresher, who hastened to express regret at the admiral's loss. But Lord Nelson cot hint short, so the story goes, with this jest: "Tut, tut, ratan: lticky for you it wasn't my leg. I want another dozen pairs of silk stockings," There are other shops of similar , antiquity, like James Lock, hatters, of St, James Street: Ede & Ravens - croft, robe makers and tailors, of Holborn, and, believe it or not, a delightful little silversmiths, estab- out, similar obstacles still stood in the way. Since the locust knows no frontiers, the plan called for co- operation by Many different coup• tries—above all, against the desert locust. e * * * International agreement to im- plement the plan was obtained only in 1938.' Now, at last, it is being implemented—at any rate for the three types of locusts I have men- tioned, It may well turn out that the final prevention of swarming by some locusts will be economic- ally possible only as a by-product of plans for general agricultural development, J1TT$R• lished•in 1690 and caller "The Silver Mouse Trap," its Carey Street just behand the law courts in the Strand, writes Peter Lyne in The Christian Science Monitor, But are they stuffy and antivated, these 200 -year-old London shops? What sort of shop window and what sort of atmosphere is there its an establishment like Thresher & Glenny, for whom Dr. David. Liv- ingstone, famed African pioneer and explorer, designed a marketable mosuito net? Are there cobwebs on the ceiling and arc the shope old-fashioned be- hind the counter? Not a bit of it, Thebe certainly is nothing stuffy about most of these old -established firms. Itt fact, they claim that an old first must be specially progressive or it would not survive these neo. dein days, Thresher & Glenny, for instance, is immensely proud of its history and old traditions. But the firth freely admits its present-day appeal is dependent on the cfiicicncy of its modern organization, Visitors may come and look at a museum; But shops depend for their existence on all comers being perpadcd to buy, not just look, It is recorded that in 1861 the late S. Endicott Peabody of the United States entered Thresher & Glenny's and ordered some of the India tweed suits which he thought would be suitable 'for the American clim- ate. Today representatives of the firm spend several months every year in the United States booking orders for individual customers. ' Though the firm specializes in the best traditional English and Scottish cloths, it is pioneering, as well, the latest 100 per cent rayon sttitings. It also produces an origin- al and entertaining monthly publica- tion for circulation to regular cus- tomers. Besides being an education in clothes, this publication provides a wealth of other utexepected in- formation, What is the origin of the phrase, "Pop goes the weasel"? When 1 used to sing that old song as a small boy I used to conjure up a picture of a greedy weasel eating too much. But according to Thresher & Glen - ray's monthly miscellanea, the weasel is a long, thin pressing iron, 61VE TR A WOW , POP. SHB'S ALL READY !VR. LAUICHnse the most easily spared of all tailor's irons, hence the first to'be pawned, or popped, as pawning is colloquial - If called. That explanation seems far more likely in the context of the rest of the warning in the song, which went like this: "And down the city road, In and out the Eagle (a tavern), That's the way the money goes— Pop goea the weasel." -Then there was another verse about half a pound of tuppeny rice and half a pound of treacle, Any- way, the British Broadcasting Cor- poration became interested its Thresher & Glenny's explanation, and there was quite a national argu- ment. `Budget' Once Meant Small Leather Bag Some English words are mu cconotnical, In two or three syl- lables a whole picture can be con- jured on•jured up by the person who knows the fascinating history of a par- ticular word. Coward, for instance, is derived from the Latin, cauda, a tail, and the idea is conveyed of an animal slinking away with its tail between its Jegs, Even today with universal edu- cation, soros people still find it a laborious business to write a let- ter, Lines are scratched out and ink splotches spoil the appearance of the page. That's just as it should be, for letter comes from a Latin verb meaning to smear, When characters, that is individ- ual letters, were first put on rec- ord, they were smeared or scrawled on parchment. A book, strictly speaking, should always be made of wood. This word is a modernization of the Anglo- Saxon boc, a beech tree, which provided baric for writing pur- poses, We are so used to hearing of charwomen that we never wonder how they got their name. They are women who do a chare, or turn of work. Shakespeare spoke of "the staid that milks and does the mean• est chanes." Honey and Moon Constables who pace the beat are occupied very differently front the original holders of their office, Co11- stable is a distortion of conies stab - the count of the stable, once a high state official. There is, however, disagreement among the authorities about the origin of the word honeymoon. A charming explanation is that there was once a custom in northern Eu- rope of drinking mead (made from honey) for thirty days after a mar- riage feast. But more people incline to the cynical view that a honeymoon is merely the time during which affec- tion first grows to a peak and then wanes; just like the moon after it has reached the full. People always admire a good pro• file. Literally this means in front of a thread. - That Budget Bag A word which has been much on our tongues recently is budget. This merely means a little bag, from the French bourgette. The terns was first applied to the chan- cellor's leather case, but stow when we talk of a budget, we mean only the contents of the bag. Exchequer, incidentally, is de- rived front the Old French for a chessboard. in . the days when French was the language of the English court, accounting had not been brought to its present fine art. Not being very skilled at calcula- tion, the treasurer used to reckon up the king's taxes by means of counters on a board marked out in sgttares. The chascellor himself was orig- inally an official in charge of a chancel, or latticed barrier, in the law courts. The Latin, cancellus, means a crossbar or grating. No Smoke, No Oil—Smokeless smokestacks at the huge oil refinery at Abadan, Iran, symbolize the fact that oil production there has dropped almost to zero since Iran nationalized the industry and Britain ordered its trained personnel and oil tankers out of Iran. $y Arthur Pointer W r, PA(d4 ' • ' 11 • • r THE STANDARD +4-4-+-,-+• •+M N P4444+444+4 *4+4+++++$-4 t•-•-••••• vNf•N•wrNrw+NNNNrNN++N( BONLESS TENDERIZED HAM 95c lb.

Memory Selection: Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets. -Matt. 7:12, John Wesley said, "Make all you can, save alt you can, give all ypu can." In a remarkable way he fulfilled his own dictum, But "make all you can" must be car- ried out in kccping with the Ncw Testament principles. Demetrius opposed the gospel in Ephesus be- cause he and his craftsmen who were making silver images of Di- ana, were losing prospective buy- ers. It is true today that. the trans- formation of men and women by the saving power of the gospel of Jesus Christ is hard on some busi- nesses. But such businesses ought to be closed and their sponsors turn to that which will aid rather then check the moral advancement of the people. It is sad that so many are slaking profit' out of the spiritual and moral deterioration of their fellow -sten. How can such people be happy? Wealth does not make happiness. A storekeeper was opposed to a revival effort in his town, How- ever, soon then were coming iii and paying accounts of years' stand- ing. They had been changed. and 'were undertaking to pay their just. debts. The storekeeper no longer opposed the effort but honied other lives would be changed also. We are responsible to God for all that we are and have. To bury our talent is to incur God's wrath. \Ve must use what we have and he used for the glory of God and the good of our fellow -sten.

It was with heart -felt relief that we saw the last load of baled hay go into the mow Saturday ►light just as overhanging clouds treated us to another deluge. Now it is Monday morning -the beginning of a new week, with all last week's trouble behind us. Some of our young friends have, just left for their various destinations after spending the week -end with us. Yesterday we had a lovely drive and saw a few beauty spots that 1. have always wanted to visit. \Ve never get very far from !tome in our own car as my limit for driv- ing is within a 30 -toile radius, After that it ceases to be a pleasure, Our first stop was the Dundas Look -Out. The view was certainly , worth the trip. Front. the Look - Out one had almost an aerial view of the valley below. Houses, cars and people appeared, as it were, in a miniature, scenic panorama, such as one often sees at the Exhibitiojr. The day was marvellously clear so we were able to sec for miles anti utiles and could quite easily distin- guish various buildings in the Ham- ilton area. Leaving the Look -Out we con- tinued on our way along a winding road -on one sick a jagged lime- stone bank, on the other a ravine, In early days this road must surely have been an Indian trail -- it had more twists and turns than a snake - rail fence. Our next stop was MacMaster University in IHIamilton. The form- al gardens were a striking contrast to the wild, rugged beauty of Dun- das, There was dignity and beauty' in the University gardens which was entirely in keeping witlt the stately. architecture itself ... it re- minded me a little of some of the colleges in Cambridge. We paid 'a brief visit to the Rock Gardens, It didn't take me long to decide that the best time to visit the Rock Gardens is in late spring. Of course, it has its summer beauty but there isn't as much colour now as one finds in the spring. True, bower -beds along the walks were gay with colour, as were the lily - pools, but there were very few plaints in bloom among the steep, terraced rocks, In spring flowers of every hue fill every crack and crevice of the rocks. Our next stop was. Lowville Park, This I was anxious to see as it is a project for which the Federation of Agriculture has been responsible, with the idea of pro- viding a recreation centre and pic- nic grounds *for local farm .organi- zations. It is a well-chosen site. A tree -shaded stream of water as clear as crystal insures safe pad- dling and swimming for young- sters. There are also wings and slides, and a building specially con- structed for convenience. as a re- freshnipnt booth when required, There is also plenty of . parking space and at, flood -lighted baseball diamond, Apparently other countries' have also carried out experiments along this line. It has been felt in sonic , cases that city folk have a wide choice in amusement centres but that very few parks are available for country people in their Own communities. The question is, how much use will the country folk of the parks if, and when, they have then!?

Richard Coeur de Lion must have been ex- ceptionally powerful if the massive arm holdinfr aloft his sword in the statue outside the Palace of "West- n1inster is anything to go by. His- tory tells us that he alone could swing that mighty weapon, One of our most athletic kings was Henry VIII, who was a tre- mendous wrestler and a cham- pion at "casting the barre." When first he ascended the throne his daily amusement, according to the historian, Strutt, included weight putting, dancing, tilting (raping and running. Henry ordered his secretary Richard Pace, to advise the .sons of noblemen to pursue sports and to "leave study and learning to, the children of meaner people." Twisted Iron Bars A very powerful king was Au= gust the Strong, King of Poland. In the royal castle, at Cracow, is still preserved an iron bar an inch thick and four feet long, which he twisted with his hare hands into a symmetrical design, Maurice, son of Joseph 1 of Ger. many, was another royal Hercules. Once when out hunting he broke off for something to eat and, find- ing that the corkscrews bad been mislaid, called for a long nail which ' he' twisted with his fingers; and with it opened a dozen bottles, Dom Pedro, Emperor of Brazil, was not only strong, but loved practical jokes. Once, when out sailing, he noticed two courtiers in elaborate uniforms preening them- selves, Leaning over, he seized each by the scruff of the neck and clumped then' over the side, holding them under for a few seconds while they kicked and struggled. The last of the German emper- ors, Kaiser Wilhelm fI, was ex- . ceptionally powerful, despite a withered hand, and to the end of his days indulged in his hobby of wood chopping, at Doom, When Eugene Sandow was presented to Although thin young man looks the port ots. cowboy from the top of hid Western hat to the tip of his tooled and metal,adorned shote, his feet tan grow and develop as they should, unhampered by unnatural lasts. 1 him and tore in half :, pack of cards, the Kaiser asVed for a similar pack and, with a lquick turn of his wrist, ripped it if'tvo. He could not quite managf'the two packs that Sandow ripped. The last Tsar was another pack tearer. He loved to ask strong .men how the trick was performed. When they showed him, he would grasp the pack as instructed, tear it in two and exclaim innocently: "So that's how it's donel" Our Gardens One of the unheralded sights of America is the back -yard or kitchen garden. You see these gardens along almost all the highways, its the little towns and all through the farmlands, but they are particularly noticeable through the Midwest, green and fresh and neatly weeded, and often bordered with petunias or poppies or the ever-present hol- lyhocks. Many of them are as pretty as the pictures were in the seed catalogues in January, for this is a country of practical gardeners, satin' -food gardeners. There is a certain uniformity about these gardens, with their tri- pods of bean poles, their fat heads of lettuce and cabbage, their lush rows* of beans. Most of then' have sweet corn, tasseling in fortunate places, and tomatoes and red -veined beets And the An; fronds of Sar - rote. And, In farm gardens par. titularlyr there are potatoes vfith their small white blossoms, 13ut there is also personality Its every garden in sight. One has the corn in hills; another has its corn in rows. One still has the withering vines of late peas; another shows the young green of string beans where the peas have been pulled. One garden is fenced, and you know there are neighbor's chickens or nature's rabbits to be thwarted; another is open to all comers and you suspect that here is a gar- dener with few troubles except drought, flood or insects. And there is the morning garden and the evening garden. The morn- ing garden belongs to the women. You see them, in housedress or dungarees, straw hat or sunbonnet, doing fine weeding in the rows, or picking beans, or cutting lettuce for the day's salad. The evening garden belongs to the men. You see the melt there after their day's work is done, with a wheel hoe or a hand hoc, or with nothing but a pipe and an air of pride and con- tentment. But however you see these gar- dens, or whenever, they are a sat- isfying sight; for the garden thaT is still clean and green in mid-July is the garden of someone who loves the land and all the green things it grows. —From the New York Times.

Also Canadian itbuscwives battling with the cost of living, may find some consolation in the thought that they are not the only ones. Down in Washington, D.C., the Bureau of Statistics says that market basket that cost $10 in 1939 costs a housewife $23.75 today. A BLS study by Mrs. Aryness Joy Wickens, deputy commissioner of the bureau, lists these" food items which a housewife could buy for $10 in 1939: 10 pounds flour 2 pounds veal cutlet and 5 pounds sugar pork chops 15 pounds potatoes 1 can salmon 2 loaves bread _ 3 pounds onions 7 quarts milk 1 pound cheese 6 pounds rib roast 2 dozen eggs 2 pounds bacon 3 pounds apples 2 pounds butter 2 cans tomatoes 1 package rolled oats 2 bunches carrots 2 dozen oranges 1 can peaches 1 pound coffee 2 cane peas 5 pounds cabbage 1 head lettace 3 pounds green beans 1 box dried prunes At today's prices, $10 covers only the first 6/ items, which are, to be sure, the more expensive staples: 10 pounds flour 7 quarts milk 5 pounds sugar 6 pounds rib roast 15 pounds potatoes 1 pound bacon 2 loaves bread You have 23 cents left over after buying' this market basket, Mrs. Wickens said, but that won't get you eves a pound of_ green beans today.

He rode his bike through the rain -swollen wafers of the nearby little Blue River, which had washed out bridges (back. ground) on U. S. Highway 71.
