Card'ff In Victory Parade The election in Blyth was taken by the voters pretty much In stride, For years a Conservative majority has been generally conceded. By midnight most of 'our citizens had forgotten all about the election and were fast asleep, For this reason not too many were on hand to greet Mr. Cardiff and his vic- tory parade upon arrival at midn'ght.. Mr. Cardiff was accompanied by a•cav- alcade of well-wishers as well as the members of the Brussels Legion Pipe Band, Ile was greeted in front of the Memorial Hall by Reeve W. H. Mor- rit 'of Blyth, and other stalwarts of the local Progressive Conserv4t:ve organ- ization, A parade formed up and the skirl of the pipes brought those who were still out of bed hurry'ng to main street, Mr. Cardiff, Mr. Morritt, and Mr. Wm. Thuell, headed the 'parade south through main street, following which' the cavalcade moved on to oth- er centres in the Riding.

LEGIONE'i'TES FAILED TO MAKE PLAY-OFF 'PAY -DIRT Local fans have seen the last of the 1953 edition of the Blyth Legionettes. They made a dismal last-ditch stand against the Clifford Swingskirts on the Blyth diamond one night last week. With fourth place playoff slot at stake, the Legionettes dropped' the all-important game by the one-sided score of 19 to 1, They had one post- poned gape yet to May, but' Manager Ted Bell decided that their chances of beating the league -leading Hanover girls was so remote that he forfeited that game so that the other four teams in the league could get on with the semi-finals,. Our girls showed much promise dur- ing the season's. early stages, During the last part of the schedule however, they just couldn't get hitting on all cyl- inders. They seemed' to get worse, and the opposing teams improved. The flunking sisters "worked on the mound and behietheplate for the final game. Legionairres Game Down In Semi -Final With Centralia Following Tuesday night's third semi final game, Blyth Legionairres find themselves one game. down in the semi-final round with Centralia RCAF. The RCAF now lead the series 2 games to one, with the final two games to be played on the Centralia diamond. Fans have been treated to some top- flight ball in the two games played here over the week -end, Saturday George Sloan, Clerk. night's game, which the Legionairres won 8 to 7, in the tenth inning, was a real thriller, anti Tuesday night's game up until the fatal seventh, inning was even better. At that stage Blyth was leading 2 to 1 and both teams were playing heads -up ball. Two or three fine plays b y the Legionairres were particularly pleasing. However, in the seventh, with the pressure , mounting on every play, the Legion- airres suffered a few mental lapses that cost them three runs, and as it turned out, the ball game. In the 8th inning Centralia `added another run to make the final score 6 to 2 in their fav- our. Carman MacDonald' pitched the entire gave for the Legionairres, and did an excellent job, as he did last Saturday night in the second game. Centralia called in the reserves for Tuesday night's game by pulling in their star hurler, Thornton. He tried to pull Saturday night's game out et the fire too, but the Legionairres would not be denied on that occasion, Tuesday night, Thornton was in rare form, end the Legionairres found it difficult to get to him for solid base hits. One of the season's largest crowds was on hand for Tueday's game. LONDESBORO W. I. The regular meeting of the Londes- boro Women's Institute was held in. the CommunityHall, on Thursday, August 0th.

I am at my wits' end how to keep her happy afterward— "For we do not enjoy the same recreations, Sports, the theater and dancing are her pet indul- gences, These all bore me stiff, I've never cultivated any one of them. An old beau of hers has been taking her, I like him, and I trust them both. But do you think this is fair? "In every other way, we are like one person.—Belong to the same church, love concerts and good books, and are popular with many friends. We get along swell with each other's families, too. What I want to know is, how will it be after we get married? "Don't you think she should give up these recreations which mean nothing to me? "I too, however, promise to do what you advise.

Once the • novelty of keeping house wears • off (and believe me, in a • couple of years that is natural) • she will still yearn to dance, • attend sports, and go to the • theatre, As her husband, it is * your place to escort her, and • in good humor.

So before they married, they made an agreement to please the other. •He (much against his inclin- ation), went to dancing classes until he mastered the art. She accompanied him to gaines he wanted to watch, and for a while she took along a maga- zine to read, Within a few months she found the contests irresistible; and, as he explain- ed the rules, she became almost as enthusiastic as he. He never did enjoy dancing — but the point is, he took her when she wanted to go. * The result? They never had • to be apart unless they chose • to, Their marriage has lasted * 10 years, and is still an inspire- * tion` to their friends. - • It is true that these two * were older than you and your • fiancee, But I sense you both • are more mature than your * ages, or you would not be wor- • rying about the future, which ' * she is thinking about, too, Why • shouldn't you adopt this idea? * Later on, you may find you * can enjoy a concert or a good * book alone of home, while • your wife goes dancing or to • other places with a group of * friends. These things work • themselves out — if both are • equally determined to make • their marriage last, * Think it over, and talk it • over. * * • People who fall in love often discover, to their chagrin, that• they have dissimilar tastes..

Blame Television Not Harry Truman We know what has happened to handicrafts as modern mass - production industry rolls over them, They have disappeared except as hobbies and outlets for artistic creativeness. But what happens tei the arts in the face of electronic gadgetry? A general impression seems to be that the radio, phonograph, television, and sound movies have sent the amateur performer down the same road as the home weaver and the cabinetmaker. What actually appears to occur, however, is a brief hiatus during which people are satisfied to lis- ten (or watch) a few top profes- sionals rather than to "get in the act." Then comes the urge to do. Little Egbert and Clarissa, so it seems, are not awed by the sight of a piano virtuoso on their television, (Perhaps it is little Egbert's and Clarissa's parents who are not awed.) Anyhow, more hopefuls, young and old, are taking piano lessons today than ever before in history. At least, so says the National Association of Piano Tuners in convention assembled, And it credits not the influence of one Harry S. Truman, now free to circulate among his fellow 'citi- zens, but television—flatly, Are piano tuners thetnselves joining the throng? Apparently not. After you've been tuning a half-dozen pianos a day,"says ore of them, you've had all the bong - bong -bong you can stand. We know what he means. From:. The Christian Science Monitor.

The on -again, off -again ne- gotiations that have prevailed during the last few months have been sufficiently discouraging to make. us wonder whether there would ever be peace in this world again, Peace , .. isn't it a wonderful word?—and if there is anything tired nations need right now, more than anything else, it is peace, Peace , , , not only from war but from every kind of con- flict. Peace within families; peace within industry; peace in agri- culture; in politics; peace among the warring elements of Nature, and, most of all, peace in . ctur hearts—a "peace that pass' Ih all understanding," Taken by and large peace has a far deeper meaning than ces- sation of hostilities. Canada, for instance, may, not now be act- ively engaged in war on a battle- field but as long as there is con - filet between labour and man- agement; or between producers and consumers, or disagreements within families, there can never be actual peace—peace that is defined as harmonious relations among, people, I know peace of mind is what I crave for now more than anything else in life —and I imagine many other per- sons feel the same way. Rut that kind of peace is only possible if everyone is working to accom- plish it, How many are doing just that I wonder? . Last night we had another dis- turber of the peace — a sharp. thunderstorm, When we heard the rain pelting down we hardly knew whether to be glad or sorry. Glad for the sun -baked gardens and fields, or sorry be- cause of the baled hay still out in the field, We had a big field of hay baled last Friday and we expected to get a lot of it on Saturday but for various reasons the help we had expected didn't show up so there was only Part- ner and a neighbour to deal with over 700 bales of hay, The boy who usually drives the tractor was sick so I volunteered to take his place, Not because 1 wanted to but because I couldn't sit quietly by watching the man In the field hopping on and of,( the tractor and handling bales as well, The men always say driv- ing a Model M. is just like driv- ing a car. To them maybe It , is—but not to mel The noise of the tractor bothers me and I am always afraid of doing something wrong or unexpected that might cause an accident, My trouble Is not ignorance of danger but of being too aware of it, Besides that I don't possess a pair of slacks or overalls, Skirts on a tractor, especialy.in a wind, are somewhat of a menace—and cer- tainly an embarrassment( Maybe I had better invest in a pair of slacks—just in case. Better to be ' safe than sorry. Remember the time when the farm was a nice, safe place for children to spend a holiday? Where they could even help with the chores or the haying— just so long as they 'kept away froth the bull -pen, or the horse's hind feet, or didn't .try• walking." the high beams in the barn, It isn't a safe place any more, Chil- dren have a natural' love of ma • - chinery, boys and girls alike.., Nothing' pleases. them better than than to' ride on. the tractor with. Daddy --- •It. Daddy is foolish enough to allow it, Children ars quick to pick up the mechanic of driving but they naturally haven't the foresight to appre- ciate its potential danger, Many mothers, through lack of know • ledge, are also sadly Melting in this respect, A mother, who would be horrified if Johnny climbed the' gate of the bull- pen, will watch without protest as Johnny climbs aboard the tractor, or rides the tongue draw- ing the hay -wagon, Too many little boys are also allowed to drive farm tractors—"lie can handle the tractor as weft as his Dad", is a' phrase one hears all too often, One father, just re- cently, had to make a trip to town and came home to find his seven-year-old son driving their high` -powered tractor up and down the back lanes, with two neighbour -children, four and five years old, riding with him. Too sharp a turn of .the wheel and one hates to think what might have happened to all three chil- dren. There is a law to prevent young people driving cars on the road, but there is no law to prevent a child from operating a tractor on the farm. That is,entirely up to the parents, It is their res- -ponsibility, and theirs alone, to keep young children away from tractors and other mechanized farm machinery. Accidents can happen so easily and a young life snuffed out, or a little body crippled for life, just because . someone failed to appreciate the danger. Irish Tinkers _ On The Way Out Ireland's colorful tinkers — those 'knights of the road whose multihued carts and caravans have lent a touch of romance to the contryside for centuries — are threatened by progress. It is estimated there are about 5,500 tinkers in Ireland and. half of them are -women, Wandering and carefree by nature, 'many. lose patience with their ways, but there also are many in the world outside their own who defend them, Sometimes the tinkers are called gypsies. Such. a careless reference however, can lead to a real feud. Tinkers — always 'ready for a drink or'a fight — have differ- ent meanings to different people. Farmers denounce the tinkers, who- live off the countryside, and keep a close watch on their crops and cattle when they swarm near, - Poets and songsters see these .lean men and women of the road as romantics, Playwright Justice Donagh MacDonagh Once described them as "God's gen- try;" Bryan MacMahon as, "chil- dren of the rainbow." Historians are not quite sure where the tinkers came from, Some say they are the descen- dants of the armorers of the ancient Kings of Eiroland who took a wandering.when the king- ly. ,system broke • down; others think of them as descendants of Raparees, the Robin Hoods of Ireland who waged war on for- eign soldiery. These• nomads aro versatile mystics and card sharks, healers, all-around odd -job men; and not beyond begging for. -a• .cup 'of "lay" , . Among themselves they have have their Own secret language that's never been decoded by an outsider, .

Everyone knows that Joan o1 Arc was burnt to death at the stake, But was she? Ancient do- cuments brought to light cen- turies after her supposed execu- tion have raised doubts in the minds of some antiquaries, Is it possible that a common criminal was put to death in Joan's place? Did she regain her liberty after the death of her old e1435?nemy, the Duke of Bedford, in If not, how ▪ can one explain the young woman, who, dressed as a man, presented herself In 1436 - before the magistrates of Metz, and calmly announced that she was Joan of Arc? She certainly looked and spoke like the Maid, But, of course, no- body could credit such a prepos- terous claim. The girl was de- tained while the justices sent for Joan's brothers, Pierre and Jean, who hurried to the city to expose this "impudent impostor," Impossible 'to Fake Instead (relates a contempor- ary record by a Father Rigeur) they recognized her immediately ' as their sister and embraced her joyfully, Apart from facial cha- acteristics, there was that curi- ous little birthmark, impossible. to fake, behind her left ear. Documents produced by the girl were subjected to the closest scrutiny, but no forgery could be detected, Convinced at last that Joan of Arc stood before them, the city authorities tried in every way to make amends for their early sus- . picions, Various noblemen' pre- , sented h e r with new clothing, while one gave her a magnificent horse, and she was entertained like a princess. Received With Honours Cheering crowds acclaimed her every)vhere as she rode through Lorraine, She always seemed to be quite at ease as, talking in her mystical way, she conversed with people who had known Joan best in the - old days. All were certain of her identity. She was received with honours wherever she appeared, Visiting Germany, she was even con- sulted officially in a difficult prob- lem concerning two rivals for the Archbishopric of Treves, Ul- rich, Count of Wurttemberg, him- self escorted her to Cologne, Back' ir. Franch she received a handsome money present from King Charles VII (the former Dauphin, who owed his corona- tion to the Maid), and he ennobl- ed Joan's family with the stately appellation ,of "de Lys." Madly In Love About this time, the girl met t h e handsome young Chevalier Robert des Armoise, one of the wealthiest men in Lorraine, who soon fell madly in love with her. Eventually, amid great' popular rejoicing, they were married, and a copy of the marriage contract, describes the bride as "Jeanne d'Arc, la Pucelle d'Orleans" (Jean of Arc, the Maid of Or- leans) Among the archives of the city of Metz is a list of guests at the ceremony and another of the nu- merous wedding presents. It was only natural, of course, that the people of Orleans should want to •see their heroine, 'again, and the young 'married' couple accepted a pressing invitation to spend a few days there in 1439, • 'A series of great banquets was given by the civic power in their honour, and nobody who ' remembered the Maid appears to have doubted for a moment the identity of the chief guest, The council, says a record, vot-. ed that a sum of 210 !lyres (the equivalent of about $3,000 today) be presented 'to her "In return for benefits she conferred upon the city during the siege," and this was duly presented to Ma- dame des Armoise at a sumptu- ous farewell dinner, If this young woman was an impostor, she must have been a consummate actress, well primed with many details of Joan's pri- vate life, and gifted with unlimit- ed self-confidence, Discussed Old Times One day she halted on her way through Anjou to call upon tho Baron Gilles de Reis, who fought side by aide with Joan in many a hard battle, He welcomed her with open arms, After discussing old tines together, they parted on the friendliest terms, with no suspicion on the Baron's part. • By degrees the sensation caused by the story of Joan's reappear- ance died down, and it. may bo that Madame des Armoise subse• quently settled to a life of ordin. ary mediaeval domesticity, It li on record that she presented het husband with two sons, but 'after that little is known of her. There is a story, somewhat ob. scure as to its origin, which re. Cates that she was subsequently convicted before parliament of imposture, If true, it is astonish• ing that details are lacking, Pos. sibly this extraordinary tale owe( something to the unwillingness 01 people to believe that historian, could be mistaken on a point of such magnitude as Joan's fate, It only remains to be said that competent archivists who exam• ined the records satisfied them- selves that the young woman's claiin to be Joan of Arc was fully - substantiated, while others could only say they did not know what to think. Some quiet evening when your girl has stayed home to wash her hair and there is nothing at the movies you haven't seen, why don't you sit home and figure out how many different bridge hands can be dealt to four play- ers.

Of course much of the ma- terial contained in such books— we are not referring to sports fiction — is by-, no means new; in fact some of 'the tales, such as the one about Babe, Ruth's "calling his shot" beforpark- ing a homer in the Chicago bleachers — have been told so often that we feel like scream- ing when we sense It coming up again. So the interest to be found in such books, especially those about baseball and boxing, depends not on what is told, but how the telling is , done, One book we can recommend, although it is by no. means new,. ,is Bill Stern's "Favorite Boxing Stories." The eminent Mr, Stern is not- always strictly accurate, it is said, as to his facts. His judgments do not always coin- cide with our own — which. doesn't mean that either of us is right. But what he has to de- scribe he tells in a highly read- able manner, and if you're look- ing for a book to slip in the pocket for, when the fish aren't biting, you can't do' better, All of which, as you've prob- ably guessed, is just a nice way of getting around the fact that we're about to . purloin one of Mr, Stern's stories. So — here it is: r •, No bandit ever left a town more completely looted than Jack Kearns did when he was the manager of the great champion, Jack Dempsey, The town that Kearns picked clean was a lit- tle place. called Shelby, in the sovereign state of Montana. It seems that a pretty good heavywegiht named Tom Gib- bons was hot on the trail of the then champinon of the world, Jack Dempsey. Kearns was smart enough to know that .the Modern Papoose—Latest in baby fashions takes a tip from the American Indian and lets junior sit comfortably behind, freeing mother's hands and acting as a reducing agent as well. De- signed by Lois LignelI, it's made of stout denim. r fight, if arranged, would not am- ount to much. Gibbons was ,a fairly clever boxer but he was far from being a match for the fiery, hard -punching champion, Still, business was business. If any promoter felt sassy enough to put on the match, Kearns was willing to listen to reason, rea- son meaning money, of course. Enthusiasm among the entre- preneurs was far from high. The fight did not promise to draw much at the gate, and the offers were none too liberal, It was at this point in the pro- ceedings that the little town of Shelby, Montana, stepped into the picture. Not satisfied with re- maining the happy, prosperous little place that it was, Shelby sought fame and prominence in the -vorld. The leading citizens of the town made a startling bid for the fight between Dempsey and Gibbons, For the defense of his title, Dempsey was offered $200,000 on the. spot, and an ad- ditional $100,000 on the day of the fight No more welcome music had ever sounded in Jack Kearn's ears. The offer was snapped up before you could say sucker. The fight was set in Shdlby for July 4, 1923. The townspeople con- gratulated themselves on the prize plum they had plucked from the fistic tree. Little did' they know what misfortune they had brought down on themselves. As the day of the fight ap- , . * # 1 pl'oaehed, the' people of Shelby, Montana, finally came to realize that they had overstepped them- selves badly, The balance of money that was due to Kearns could not be raised, On the eve of the fight, the local promoters came td Jack Kearns' hotel with their troubles. There Iwas a fine sum of $43,000 available to pay him off; wobld it he enough? Kearns sneered at the offer, He waved the contract before their faces and demanded the hundred thousand due him, They begged him to take what he could get and let the fight go on, Kearns said no money, no fight. The local folks said the town was stone broke. Kearns lit a fresh cigar. Voices began to rise. Words were said that might bet- ter have been left unsaid. A terrific battle followed, fists flew through the air, heads were conked, In the . excitement, the sheriff of Shelby who was acting as chairman, got in the way of a stray bullet. From all the ruckus Jack Kearns emerged triumphant, as usual. The town, at the end of its resources, somehow found the money to pay him off. The fight took place and it was a dull af- fair won by Dempsey on points. When it was over, Kearns and his crowd took the first train out of Shelby, Behind them they left a ruined, busted town. The lead - Ing bank had closed its doors,, The citizens had lost their sav- ings. It was a fearful price to pay for a bunch of soon -to -be - forgotten headlines.

Now — Bread That 'Never Gets Stale A revolution is beginning in the bread industry. American housewives will benefit first, but the idea was born in the Arctic when Admiral Byrd in his last expedition found that some bread left in a hut under 20 feet of snow for years before was still edible and fresh. When a loaf is baked its great- est loss of flavour and "newness" takes place in the first 12 hours after leaving the oven. This can be prevented by freezing bread immediately it has been baked. A large 'baking company in New York State is putting frozen bread on the market. They intend to distribute bread throughout the United States, transporting it in refrigerated trucks and keep- ing it .in cold storage. Far from increasing bread ,costs, they believe it will bring down the price of a loaf. Bakers will not have to work overtime or .at week - ends and holiday times. T h e heavy wastage of stale bread will be eliminated. Shops will be able to stock bread once a week or once a fortnight and it will remain fresh in their cold stores. It is also claimed that the housewife will be able to buy a week's supply of bread at a time, but this seems doubtful. Will the refrigerator be big enough to h old the week's supply of loaves and rolls as well as other foods? However, some ex- perts in the bakery trade believe that frozen bread will be com- monplace in five years' time — and the bread on the table will always be "new." . YOU'D PROBABLY BE WRONG 'If you were to ask the average person participating in an opinion poll which he thought would be the higher: the profit made by industry, or the taxes taken by government, it is certain he would plump for profit. And if you were to ask what he thought the amount of profit was, his estimate would probably begin at 10 per cent. On both counts he would be wrong. The education committee of the Canadian Manufacturers Association has just completed a nation wide survey, Mr, W. E. Weaver, the committee chairman, has released the figures which show that for every one dollar of sales of Can- adian manufactured goods in 1952, profit amounted fo only five cents. Of that five cents, 2,2 cents went out in dividends, and 2.8 cents were ploughed back into the business. And what about taxes? Federal and provincial taxes on manufacturing income average out at 5.1 cents per sales dollar. Taxes thereby beat profits by one tenth of a cent per $1 of sales, This C.M,A. committee started making these surveys five years ago, to combat public misconceptions about the size of manufacturing profits. It is noteworthy that in 1948, i ofit was 8,2 cents,''In 1950 when corporate taxes were lower, it jumped to 7,1 cents. In 1951, with taxes still rising, it dropped .to 5,8 cents and in 1952 with taxes still on the rise, it was five cents. The Monetary Times Modern Etiquette Q.

But our own fresh -water fish are delicious eating — provided you know how to treat them. For best flavor and texture, after the fish are scaled and cleaned and just before cooking, rub inside and out• with salt and half a lemon. Trout au Bleu is a well-known French recipe. This Canadian version is just as delicious — good for bass, too: Trout Au Bleu • Trim and split down back 6 trout or bass • Combine in frying pan . % c. mild' vinegar c. chicken broth (Make chicken broth' with t� chicken boullion cube and 1 c. water.) • Add 1(J bay leaf • Simmer, covered, for 10 min- utes, • Add fish to broth and simmer 16 minutes, or until tender. Re- move fish to platter and serve with — Caper Sauce: • Combine ! a c. melted but- ter juice of ? a lemon !� e. capers * • $ Crisp baked bass, served with bacon strips and tomato wedges, gets a high rating.

BY EBNA MILES LOOKING pretty at the beach takes work In the form of beforehand p I a n n i n g, Even casual observance of beach get- ups leads to the suspicion that seventy-five per cent of all wom- en at the beach have never so much as glanced at themselves in the mirror before they left the house. Full length appraisal is es- sential, The swim salt to cut down figure faults has been on the market for sometime now and is no rarity, The sand or sitting suit that performs simi- larly is designed to be kind to too -heavy thighs, upper arms and bust. A good many women continue to cram themselves into that hardest of all suits to wear: white, This demands the absolute In figure perfection. Or, women with Large derrieres bounce about in bloomer sults with ruffles across the back, They also are fond of pink which is defi- nitely enlarging.

ELLIS Timmins, Ont., Aug. 1, 1953 Being inquisitive by nature and always prepared to stick our nose into other peoples' business we came all the way up here to learn how a strike is being run. Driving over a big hump we noticed a sign at the side of the road saying that from here on all water was flowing into the Arctic Ocean, which made us feel chilly enough to close the window, We also noticed that in the clear cool air of the North the car was picking up speed on those long long stretches of pavement without our pushing the gas. Thne Honoured Manner Timmins is a quiet little place and people look peaceful and contented. As a matter of fact it struck us that they all seem to wear a gay little smile behind their whiskers like the prover- bial cat that has eaten the can- ary, They are happy and they tell you Why as soon as you come in the door. Everybody is talking about Operation "Clean -Up" of last week, when the striking miners of Broulan - Reef raided the mine to deal with the scabs,, brought in by the manager, in "the time honoured manner." The whole thing ,was carried out with the methodical preci- sion of the Commando raids the boys were taught to use in the last war, 17 Minutes 300 men were milling around the police cars talking to the • Provincials while 13 cars, pai•k- ed along the road, quietly and unobstrusively filled up with live men each, At a given signal they all sped off right through the mine gate up to the change house where the strike breakers were clean- ing up. • It did riot take them long to finish the job although.they did it with their bare fists and not, as the press reported, with sticks and bats. The Scabs had those as they • had been expect- ing sonlethifig of the sort, Ten of the strike breakers were dragged along, packed in the cars to be dumped on the highway three miles away, The whole operation was over in 17 minutes, The mine manager fired three .s shots at the last car and hit a tire, It was the only car in the • whole convoy with self-sealing tires and therefore could drive on. As one of the men said after- wards: "God must have been with us." Shoot to Maim, Timmins is a mining town and a union' town and nothing in- terests the people .as much as mining and union business. They realize that the companies are out to break the union and they are not going to have it, The manager of Broulan-Reef has armed the strike-breakers left in the mine and given, them the order: "Shoot to maim. He has refused to follow the in- vitation‘ of Mr, Daley, Ontario Minister of Labour, to come to Toronto and consult with him and union representatives. He is also reported to have said that he would hang up on Leslie Frost himself if he were to call him up, Old Memories, We had the opportunity to vis- it the picket lines with our old friend Bill Grummett, CCF member for Cochrane South in the Ontario Legislature, , The boys are of good cheer, but they are wondering whether thetimes are coming back when workers were. shot at because they wanted to organize, They,. are, however, resolved to stand by their rights and to defend their union. . Farmers of Ontario night learn from the miners of Tim- mins how to handle scabs, the next time they call a milk strike or are locked out by the fruit and vegetable canning cam - panics.

How One Man 'Bagged' A Market When you're in bed in a hospi- tal, you have time to do a lot of thinking. And that's when Philip Bagley, Cumberland County, threatened with blindness, thought himself right into a bigger and better market than ever for his garden produce. Phil was worried about his eyes, but he also fretted about 60 tons of Blue Hubbard squash back home, that was about to spoil on a slow market. He suggested to his wife that the squash might sell if it were cubed and packaged in one - pound plastic (poly=ethylene) bags. Mrs. Bagley asked wholesale grocers about it. "We don't know; can't tell until we try it," they told her, Neighbors helped slice and bag the squash, and the trial run was on. Today, Phil (with sight part- ially returned in one eye) has four wholesale outlets, and others are waiting. Last summer he built a 28'x36' story -and -a -half washing and storage shed that has a full base- ment. He has a payroll of six persons. Phil says that by cubing and packaging his crop he nets about double the ordinary wholesale price, • When squash sold at $35 a ton wholesale, Phil grossed around $200 a ton, and netted $65 after labor, shrinkage, and spoilage, Going at full speed, his plant can turn out 2,000 one -pound packages of squash daily. Phil is now starting to pack carrots, too, "While I lay there li the hos- pital I decided that the reason city folks wouldn't buy squash was because the squashes were . too large," he said. "I figured that one -pound packages would be about right. Looks like I hit it right on the nose." Gary Cooper, hero and Award winner of many Westerns, once tried to be n real cow -puncher. He was sacked from three suc- cessive jobs. Glenn Ford started out as a salesman, but was fired. It was the same with Humphrey Bogart. Errol Flynn, before his film career, was sacked from so many jobs that he has lost count, "Terrible Terry" Didn't Last Long Nowadays the boxing commis- sions of the various states put all sorts of restrictions on fights that under -age youngsters are permit- ted to engage in. It wasn't always like that and no story of the ring is more to the point than Terry McGovern's. • Terry fought at the turn of the century, Some say that he started professionally when he was only a kid of sixteen, .It is a fact that by the time McGovern was seventeen he was already known as the "Terror of the Ring," "Terrible Terry" they nicknamed him,, and the young- ster richly deserved the name. He was the most savage and dy- namic fighter of his time. He feared absolutely no one Before he • was twenty-one years of age, Terry won the ban- tamweight championship of the world, That, in itself,, is remark- able, Before he was twenty-one, he also won the featherweight title! Incredible, you say? That is not all for little • Terry Mc- Govern was so groat a fighter, that before he was old enough to vote, he not only copped the bantam crown and the feather- weight title but he also fought Frank Erne, the lightweight champion of the world—and knocked him out! Indeed, Terry McGovern was n great little bruiser. Ile proudly strutted up and down the land with his titles and his hard swinging fists, winning all the boxing glory that there was for him to get, And then, one day, in 1901, Terry came to Hartford, Connec- ticut, to fight an unknown nam- ed Younk Corbett, a lad from Denver, Colorado, The fight looked like an easy touch for unbeatable Terry, . He was sitting on the rubbing table in his dressing room, wait- ing for the call to go into the ring, when someone hammered on the door. A harsh voice on the other side growled, "Come on .out of there, McGovern, you tramp, and take yota• licking." It was Young Corbett. Little Terry McGovern, the greatest hitter and fighter of his weight in the fight game, turned white, not with fear but with rage. He sprang from the rubbing table. "Let's get out of here!" he shout- ed to his handlers. "Come on, I want to get at that guy!" Trainer,. manager, seconds in- stantly obeyed the Terrible Terry. Not .one of them but thought that 'he would tear 'the challenger limb f••r--i But that n,t6ut lite owing world was treated to one 01 its most shocking surprises. Before two rounds had pnsed by. ''le great, the invincible, the unbea,- able Terrible Terry McGovr•:•n lay unconscious on the canvas, the victim of a knockout at the hands of the boastful little man from Denver. And above him, grinning down at his still form, stood Young Corbett sayin':, "I told you you were n 1• . • • • That was the begirt...,; ui the end of the mighty atom of the ring, Terrible Terry McGovern never amounted to much atter the beating he took at the hands of Young Corbett. And the sur- prising twist to the story is that, while McGovern won the ban- tamweight and featherweight championships of the world be- fore he was twenty-one, and knocked out the lightweight champion of the world before he Was twenty-one, he was also through and washed up as a fighter -before he was twenty- one! tt • .

And although I know you've probably heard all these hints and warnings before -- still, the precautions you took • yesterday won't keep you from accidents if you neglect them to- day. Falls on stairways result from (1) faulty personal practices such as running up and down, carrying objects which obstruct the view, tripping on long cloth- ing, loose fitting shoes or high heels and (2) hazards of the stairways, such as missing or weak hand -rails, loose rugs at top or bottom, worn treads or covering, objects on stairs, stens coated - with . ice, or inadequate . lighting, To minimize the danger of tripping, make sure that all stair treads are in good repair, Imme- diately replace worn or broken boards and covering.'Permit no- body to leave laundry, jars, waste baskets, brooms or other tripping 'hazards on the stairs. When going up and down stair- ways keep the hand nearest the handrail free to grasp the rail. Objects should be carried so your view of steps is not ob- structed All stairways — including porch, basement, upstairs and attic — should be constructed with normal and uniforin step riser (71,i"), adequately wide treads and sturdy hand -rails, The hand -rails serve old and young alike, because they afford a firm hand -hold when ascend- ing or descending, They should extend past the top and bottom steps and be about 32" high, Stairways over 44 inches wide require a hand -rail on both sides, The uprights of the ban - Yiisters should be close enough together that a child cannot slide through, • ' * * * A white strip painted on the Talks to Himself—James J.

And Here He Is Played Accordion,: Tamed Wild Tribe "Fawcett the • Dreamer"—was - what his fellows .called the late Colonel Fawcett. Perhaps they were right. But the substhnce of his dreams was built upon reason and he spared no effort or sacri• five to turn theory into fact. A brilliant explorer whose name is legendary, he disappear- ed mysteriously In a heroic 'at- tempt to justify his belief that somewhere, hidden in the hostile fastness of the Amazon jungles, are relics of a.high order of civ- ilization—older even than that of the Incas. It is left to his son, Brian Faw- cett, to edit and present with deep and lasting significance the manuscripts written by his father describing his journcyings into Bolivia and Brazil. And after reading Lt. -Col, P. H. Fawcett's "Exploration Fa w c e t t" little .- doubt is left in the reader's mind that he is sharing the adventures of a brave explorer, and a Man. Hardship, privation and brav- ery are accepted; self-sacrifice is the predominant quality, Arriv- ing by canoe at the mouth of the River Verde, Fawcett and his companions, together with their peons, paddled upstream as, far as possible into the area graphi- cally described as "Poisoned Hell," Leaving the canoe, they pro- ceeded on foot, Provisions soon ran out. They were starving, but staggered on; their voices sound- ing ever fainter and fainter to _each ,other, for the deafness of . famine was upon thein, Their dogs, which had sornehow man• aged to fend for themselves and' keep going, curled up' in the grass, went to sleep, and never wakened.' The peons were bor- dering on . mutiny, "A miracle 'saved us," records Colonel Faw- cett, 'At the Iast gasp, he prayed for assistance, His prayer was an- swered, . as he- somehow knew- h would be, for Within fifteen min- utes a deer came into view. As • Fawcett stared through the sights of his rifle, trembling, a hoarse whisper came from be- hind: "For Heaven's sake, don't miss, Fawcett!" The- deer `drop ped, and.typicat.of the great man • -was the note in his • writings: A'' What` a pity the' dogs had not survived a few days longer." • The explorer knew no fear, and whenever possible tried to make friends with the savage tribes he met. One, .the Guarayos, had a bad name, and Fawcett was repeatedly warned against mak- ing overtures to them, Despite these warnings, when his men and' craft were peppered with arrows, miraculously without casualty, he ordered thele not to retaliate, ' Instead, lie requested one of his 'companions, a versatile and expert accordionist, to make his sway to a log snared in the mid- dle. of a sandbar—just.. beyond dangerous range—and play. This the musician' did, squeez-_ ing out tune after tune, while other members of the party sang at the top of them voices. Dodg- ing the arrows showered upon them, they sang "Daisy, Daisy," "Knocked 'Em in the Old Kent Road," and "Onward, Christian Soldiers." Fawcett's contribution to the glee club was "Swanee River." At length the Indians stopped shooting, and friendly relations were established with them, In the Chuncho country, on the Pyrene River in Peru, gnaws a mysterious plant, the juice of which has the astonishing power of softening rock until it _is as plable as paste. It was used, an Englishman told Fawcett, by the Incas for shaping stones. This man, whose integrity and reliability were accepted, told the explorer of a nephew of his who, when his horse went lame on him; left it -in a neighboring vil- lage to walk the five miles to his own camp. The dismounted rider was wearing. four -inch spurs with rowels the size of a fifty cent piece and when he arrived at his camp after walk. ing through the bush, he dis- covered with amazement that contact with the plants had "eaten" spurs and rowels away until nothing but mere spikes were left, ' In Peru or Bolivia, the main topic of the day is treasure, Everyohe .lives in hopes of one day unearthing some long -for- gotten hoard.

Barclay. Warren, B.A., B.D. Christ Pre-eminent, Colossians 1:3-20. Memory Selection: And Ile is before all things, and by Ilim all things consist. ' Colossians 1:7. There are many denominations which profess to be Christian. Perhaps the simplest way to de- termine whether or not they are truly Christian is to examine their creed for their teaching concerning Jesus Christ and their conduct for the demonstration of His precepts. If Christ is not accorded the place of pre-emin- ence in faith and practice the group is not Christian. A religious group once sought to disturb a meeting where I was in attendance. The preacher asked the leader of the disturbers: "Do you believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God?" In anger and with a stamp of the foot the an- swer was, "No." That answer clearly identified the group as not Christian. I shall not forget the gusto with which the congre- gation soon sang in affirmation of their faith: "My hope is built on nothing less Titan Jesus' blood and right- eousness; ' I dare not trust the sweetest frame, But wholly lean on Jesus' name. On Christ the solid Rock I stand; AH other ground is sinking sand." Christ. is exactly like God, for He is God. He was before crea- tion for by Him were all things created. Through His death we have redemption, the forgive- ness of sins, He is the first to rise from the dead. He is the Head of the Church which is His body. He is pre-eminent, He will tolerate no rivals in the human heart. He must have first place. The love of money or pleasure or fame recede when He is enthroned, Buddha, Ma - hornet and Ramakrishna are dead, Jesus Christ is living. He is the incomparable, the Godman, unique, eternal, supreme, the beginning and the end, "the end of all principality and power." In Him does "all fullness dwell."
