The ball was fair and became entang- led with some cars that were parked on the playing field out in right field, Hugh Millar retrieved the ball but Bert crossed the plate ahead of the ball, Quite a sizeable ruckus ensued over whether there was a ground ruling on the ball but.Umpire B:11 Craig of Au- burn held that it was a home run, and the bull game ended 9 to 8 in favour of Blyth, Going into the ninth inning Londesboro was leading In the scoring, 8 to 5.

Actually it was true for Mr. Percy Walden of near Auburn, who brought an apple blossom picked from one of his St. Lawrence apple trees, to The Standard O:fice on Sat- urday. Mr. Walden remarked that there may have been more but the one now on display in our window is the only one he noticed. The blossom was of quite normal size and just about to break open. We turned it over to our interior decorator, Miss Olive Wilson, who made an excellent job of displaying it to the public: RALLY DAY SERVICE AT UNITED CHURCH A rally day service for the Blyth Uni- ted Church Sunday School was held on Sunday evening.

Address her at Box 1, 123 Eighteenth St., New Toronto, Ont. Modern Etiquette Q. Would It be proper, as an Introduction, to say, "Mr. Mar- shall, this Is Miss Wilson?" A. Reverse the names, The man should be presented to the woman. Say, "Miss Wilson, this is Mr. Marshall," However, when the man is much older than the woman, or is a distinguished per- sonality, she then is presented to him, Q. Is it permissible to pick up a chop hone with the fingers, when eating it at the table? A. No. One should sacrifice any meat that cannot be cut off with the knife or fork, Q. Should an usher at a church wedding offer his arm to every woman he escorts down the aisle, whether he knows her or not? A. Yes; this is one of his duties, Q. If a ratan offers to shake hands with a woman upon being introduced, should she ignore the gesture? A. Certainly not. She would be guilty of ill -breeding if she did. She should respond with- out hesitation, Q. Should the early arrivals at a wedding who have the aisle seats in a pew move towards the center so that the, late -comers won't have t o crawl over t hem to their seats? A. This is not at all necessary. In fact, this is one occasion on which the first -comer has an in- disputable right to the aisle seat, Q. Is it all right to use the telephone to acknowledge re- ceipt of a gift? A. This is not considered good form. A sincere, personally writ- ten note of thanks is in order. Q. When writing to an ac- quaintance who culls you "Mrs. Watson," how should you sign the letter? A. As "Mary Watson," Q. How many wedding invi- tations should be sent to a family where there are several grown sons and daughters? A. Send one invitation ad- dressed to the father and mother, and a separate one to each of the sons and daughters. Q, What should a divorced woman do with the rings given her by her first husband, after she remarries? A. Some women dispose of their first engagement and wed- ding rings, while others wear the first engagement ring on the right hand, This would, of course, depend upon her second hus- band's attitude. ,; ,. .: ,.,.x .1•:.; +,.:.:.• ..:.......::r;Y<!,r,..�.yr•K!u•s...•.,.•,..Ei.•^{%.!?:'.:f fit ieYJY/ ifR:.ra.i,.:`:•�>Y:::;: :.,r...:::.. :,.. .. ....:au'rvst✓:.,,,Y:+:%•i"3:'J'>:i.snv:7 ,'%/'`i;�iX Cookies—extra tasty when they're MAGIC baked 1 OAT CRUNCHIES Measure into bowl 3X c, rolled oats and sprinkte with 4M taps.

At this moment it is 98 degrees in the shade by our thermometer, which coin- cides pretty well with official readings However, there is one consoling thought—this is Sep- tember and the days of hot sun are not as long as they would • be if it were July, Nor can the heat wave last for ever. With that idea in mind, last week we ordered our winter's supply of coal. As I watched the coal slid- ing down the• chute •.a 'consoling question arosein my mind , , "If summer comes - cal 'Fall be far behind?" Queer, when you- think of it, how we react to 'extreme tem- peratures. In sub -zero weather,, those of us who can take it in our stride, think of ourselves as tough, and often we like to boast about it. But who boasts about how well they can take a spell of almost tropical heat? That's another stofy.- The boasting we do then is about how hot it was at our house, on our farm, or in our office or factory, We talk about the meals we couldn't eat, the nights we couldn't sleep, the liquid's that we drank and hots we sweated over the work. we had to do, And with it all none of us gets any sympathy because the other fellow always has n hotter tale of woe, But when it comes tq a pleasure outing, somehow there •isn't so Hutch talk about the heat, Which brings me to an outing that Partner had last week—although, to tell you the truth, Partner doesn't mind the heat too mach either for work or pleasure. Friday night Daughter phoned that she and Arthur were ccm- ing out later that svening and wanted to take Dad to the city next day, either to the races at Long Branch or to the ExhiYi• tion, whichever he preferred, Partner, without any hesitation, decided on the races. Now don't get the wrong idea, Partner has never followed the races, but he has always said he would like to go some time, and that is what Daughter remembered,. So off they went to Long Branch next day, I think it was a mere 90 that time—and of course Part- ner's shoulders are still warmly wrapped up with batting and bandages, and will be for a couple of weeks yet After the races the three of them went to see Partner's brother in To- ronto so It was midnight schen they got home—just is 1 was beginning to wonder whether they had had car trouble — or worse still gambled away all their possessions, Arthur had told me not to let Partner hear a good shirt because he might come home without itl However Partner came home with his shirt and his money, In fart, as far as I could make out, he wasn't so much interested In the races as in the people who wafated them, "When Father went to the races" is' going to be an amusing topic of conversation in our'family -for some time to come, "You should just have seen those people," said Partner, "at the end of each race they just about went crazy!" He mentioned a group of wom- en sitting just in front of him, quiet, neatly dressed, well -poised- -could have been whoa teach erg, They studied their pro- grammes, talked quietly among themselves and didn't look as if Had Ten Wives -Ninety Children Do you know what a modern Chinese, rich from coastal com- merce, will spend his money on? Wives, mistresses and offspring, Austin Coates, son of the com- poser says one such man, some of whose children he knows in Hong Kong, has had ten wives, numerous mistresses, s e v or a 1 • houses, sometimes even main- % taining three preferred wives each in a separate one, 'with her own car and servants, Mr, Coates reckons that he must have fathered close on ninety children! Another old Hong Kong man was reputed to have had seventy all alive at one time, and not to have known at family parties which were his own! -Riches give a Chinese business man the greatest of all opportunities; to father so many sons that, should the worst disasters befall China, his name and seed will survive, The children, however, didn't live like princes — far from it — for the father's family commit- ments were so great that thele wasn't enough to educate them all, the sons of the less -favoured wives having to win scholarships, just as if their father had been poor. When one of thein had ap- pendicitis there - wasn't enough ready money to pay the surgeon's cash fee, so the lad, desperately ill, had to trail from friend to friend to borrow until the Je- suit Father's who had educated hien provided what his own fa- ther either couldn't or wouldn't give — no doubt because he had lost money that night gambling. This is the way of hundreds of China coast families, Mr. Coates says in a book packed with fascinating lore,— "Invita- tion an Eastern Feast" — poor one generation, fabulously rich the next, then poor again, The millionaire, with his pure - white goatee, twinkling eyes and •trembling fingers weighted with jewels, may once have been a rickshaw -coolie; his brother may be a bandit made respectable by his own fortune; his grown-up sons, faultlessly dressed a n d speaking fluent English and French (taught at the most ex- pensive private. school in Lau- sanne), may have close connec- tions - with ' the Shanghai under- world which would have amazed the people who entertained 'them in Europe. The Chinese have a strong sense of the practical. A friend of Mr, Coates with four daugh- ters who at last became the proud father of a son gave the usual ceremonial party, taking a whole floor in a big restaurant for 400 guests. Mr, Coates was amazed that he should spend so much entertaining many who were mere acquaintances. Then, to- wards the end of the evening, he noticed that as the host •went from table to table to drink a toast with the guests, a relative with him held out a tray on which each put a small bright red envelope, for good .luck, These all contained a money gift "for the baby" — but really to lighten the host's expense and partly pay for the dinner. Among • they could get excited about any- thing, But' when the race began --"Well, I wish you could have seen those quiet dames!" said Partner, Everyone could see very well sitting down, but there they were, standing on the seats shouting and waving their pro- grammes—"Cone on, Blue Boy . come on, come on .. beat 'em, Blue Boy." And. then as the race finished, some other fan threw her programme in the air, and shouted to no one in particu- lar—"He made it , , . he made it , . , do you hear me . he made it!" Sitting right next to Partner was an elderly man, apparently a retired .farmer. He wasn't do- ing any betting either but he was getting just as much kick out of it all as was Partner. There were eight races during the afternoon, In between races people sat studying their programmes as if their lives depended on the out. come, Sometimes there would be some arguing, then one or other would disappear to place a bet, and all would be quiet again until the next race. began. Well, this column is being written ahead of time so you will understand if I am not up- to-date,on the weather', 13y to- morroI shall he many miles from here, Partner should be with me but vve know it would be too long a drive for him. Des and Arthur will be here while I am away. Where I went and_ what I did belongs to next week's column—and I am glad the weather probs this morning are for cooler weather! 'Bye, folks ---got lots to do be- fore I can get away. • Some Run Long And Some Don't. How long can a play run?'' Well, there's one called "The Drunkard" which has been run - ring non-stop in Los Angeles for twenty years. It's a temperance drama which was first produced as long ago as 1844, But here's the joke, folks. During the twenty years' run the bar takings at the theatre are estimated to have totalled $4,- 000,000, London's champion long run was "Chu Chin Chow" --2,238 performances. Other early long runs iii Brit- ish theatres: "Charley's Aunt" (r,406 performances); "Maid of the Mountains" (1,352 perform- ances; "The Farmer's Wife" (1,- 329• performances), In recent years "Blithe Spirit" topped -1,997 , performances, Noe] Coward tells this story of the shortest run on record: the play only ran three acts out of four! (It wasn't one of Noel's, needless to say!). He says: "The critics left at the end of the first act, the audience • at the end of the second and the cast at the end'of the third," Remove the extra oven shelf to use as a cooling rack for baked goods, ITMAY BE YOUR LIVER If life's not worth living it may be your liver!• is a fact!

For Those School Lunch BoxFillings The lunch your child carries to school is one of his three main meals for the day. This is a fact oft' forgotten by the lunch pail packer, Doctors and nutritionists agree, that every noon lunch should provide about one-third of your child's food needs for the .day. The packed lunch takes on added significance if it is to play its role as a meal, rather than.a mid- day snack. Remember — your child's pr'ogr'ess at school, as well as his health and well being, may be affected by the foods lie eats. "Plan from a pattern" is the answer to your problem. To pro- vide its one-third share for the day, each lunch should contain one food from each of these groups. 1, Milk—to drink or eat 2. Meat, fish, eggs, poultry cheese, peanut butter, dried peas or beans, or nuts • • 3, Whole wheat or enriched white bread, bran muffins or oatmeal cookies 4, Fruit or vegetables, raw or cooked Extras may be added, of course —but this is the basic plan. The easiest way to follow this pattern is to make sandwiches as the main course of the lunch. box meal, Choose from a variety of whole gr'airi or enriched white breads, fill the slices with a tasty, hearty foods from group 2 (meat, eggs, cheese or peanut butter aro the most common), add milk to drink, or ,milk soup or pudding, tuck in fresh fruit or a whole tomato, and there's your meal -- ready to pack its lunch-time punch! Make hamburger, all the same size, by ,pressing the chopped meat into a % or a r/a cup mea- sure, Unmold on waxed paper, and press to desired thickness with a spatula. 1/J1.w/a kifir• with Modern Fast -Acting DRY Yeast!

The Quebec King's Plate, oldest race in America, founded in 1830, when, according to tradition, British soldiers raced through the fields at Three Rivet's for the guinea" donated by King William IV,, furnishes instances of lavish outlay made merely to preserve a sentimental sequence. Breeding of thoroughbred race -horses in Quebec province does not and never has achieved the proportions of that in- dustry in the sister - province of Ontario. Quebec is not so well• suited, climatically, for rearing thoroughbred stocic. And so the Quebec Plate race, as such, dwindled for lack of equine support, until its scope was broadened and it was opened to all 3 -year olds of Canadian breeding. Even that has not proven successful. In the last two years, despite the $5,000, added purse offering each year, the race has bean run as a betless undertaking, the sponsoring club thus getting no return whatever for its purse outlay by the or- dinary avenue of wagering through the inutile's, In fact, since 1927, when only one home faced the starter to race for purse and royal guineas, there have been nine bet - less runnings, meaning that the sponsoring club got no returns via the mutuels, Instead, the sum of $14,500, was paid out to the winning horse in these year's and half as much agnih to the old placed horses, In 1927, there was a walk -over for Saguenay. Naturally, with one horse, there was no betting, In 1928, and for three year in a row starting in 1933, again in' 1945, 1949, 1952 and 1953 the race was run as a betless affair. The highest purse given a winner in this list was $3,010,, which went to Ontario - owned Chain Reaction this year, The least was $250,, to Tor- bruk in 1945. Jim Fair got $2,405,, when Last Mark won a bet - lees race in 1999. So, it's a "minus" proposition. There Is no compulsion on the club to stage the Plate re- newals, The advertising value of the race, In Quebec, is neg- ligible as compared with the tremendous Interest generated In Ontario each year, But the annual running goes on, so that America's oldest race shall not fall Into disuse, and the spon- soring club cheerfully pays the freight, And over $20,000,, we think, 1sa generous price to pay for the maintenance of those qualities which the cynical insist do not exist in racing -- sen- timent and tradition, Tour comments and suggestions for this column will be wekomed by Ebner Ferguson, c/o Calvert House, 431 Yongo St„ Toronto.

Flett, Welland, Ont,, writes: "You will recall last • year when the Canadian dollar changed its status from discount currency to a premium cur- rency, many American maga- zines contained feature articles on Canada, including "For- tune." "The editor of The Financial Post, in commenting on the Fortune artincle, said 'the writ- er repeated the old fiction about the tremendous cost to Canada of maintaining her independ- ei ce', I wrote the Post editor mentioning that there was no information about Canada which was available to him, which was not available . with equal facility to the Fortune writer, that no doubt the Fortune writer had given studious consideration to everything which he had said and was convinced of its cor- rectness," • "I suggested that the Post editor get together with the Fortune writer and go into the subject. I pointed out that every time a Canadian paid a higher price for an article in Canada than was paid by an American for such article (less, of course, the tax on it) he was paying his, part of Canada's maintaining her independence." Canadian Foodstuffs Cheaper Mr. Flett's letter continues: "The editor answered saying he thought well of my idea of his getting into• touch with the Fcf- tune writer and would give i, ,. consideration, ,.

After years of thought given the subject, the writer Is convinced that there ought to be economic union with the U.S.A. even if it meant sub- sidizing industrles which might be adversely affected by remov- al of the tariff.

"The Canadian gets lower wages than his American cousin doing the same work, This is another of labor's contributions to Canadian economic independ- ' ence," Conclusion Mr, Flett concludes his letter . by saying that he "can only see Canadian economic independence costing Canadians billions year- ly with but little on the other side of the ledger to counter- balance" . , and that he "would like to hear the ideas of a man who writes as sensibly and as well as you do."

He was the one and only Primo Carnera, • * .► Primo Carnera was an un- known circus roustabout in Paris some twenty years ago when he was invited to take _part in a prize fight ' by Mississippi -born Jeff Davis Dickson in the Salle Wagram, Every one whistled in astonishment at his size and proportions, but he was knocked out ignominiously in two rounds, Carnera should have been promptly forgotten as an awk- ward and clumsy clown, But there was• one man in the audi- ence who hpd watched the big fellow's lumbering endeavours and this man was a shrewd lit- ' tle manager named Leon See. He took the big Italian under his wing, to start one of the most amazing careers in boxing history. w t: Carnera was brought to Am- erica, In some way, he picked up managers as sugar picks up flies, He soon had half -a -dozen of them and his earnings were being cut more' ways than an .apple pie in a boarding house, k .4 +t Prime's managers, who had Easy To Use: • No dosing • No lime -table • No schedule • • No preparation • No mixing • No plugging In _ • No recharging -• No upkeep • Nothing to remember or Forget PLACE YOUR ORDER NOW, spent more time in prisons than the tiger -toothed giant had spent on earth, fixed up a series of fixed bouts, They made sure the big boy could not, lose by making business -like arrange- ments beforehand, sometimes through persuasion, often en- ough by means of threats and a show of force, Through all this Carnera went his simple way, never knowing that he was meeting stumble -burns, tankers, and diving specialists. The public was aware that most of the bouts that Carnera fought were from Gorgonzola, But the public made at ]east one mistake, a • • Primo was matched to fight a heavyweight of promise named Ernie Schaaf, The six-foot sev- en-inch 270 -pound giant tower- ed over his opponent in the ring. The whisper was out that the fight was another one of those boat -rides, When Schaaf dropped to the canvas from what most spectators thought was a light jab, howls of rage went up. Even as the fight fans .were yelling "Fake!", Ernie Schaaf was being carried to the hospital in an unconscious state, And the debate was still raging a few days later when the electrify- ing news came from the hospit- al that Schaaf was dead, An autopsy revealed that he had died of a brain injury. h * Y Ironically enough, it was only now that Carnera began to be taken seriously, He was finally matched for the world's heavy- - weight title, f * What a surprise that fight turned out to bel Ponderous, clumsy Primo Carnera, the man who had been built up on the basis of a phony reputation, turned in a splendid exhibi- tion of skill and punching power as he outfought, outsmartedand outboxed• clever Jack Sharkey for the coveted crown, * 1 * It was Carnera's supreme mo- ment as a prize fighter, Soon after, the Amiable Alp was slaughtered in the ring by the magnificent playboy heavy- weight, Maxie Baer.

For more than 10 months he rode a ferryboat back and forth between Hong Kong and Macao because neither British nor Portuguese authorities would ]et him get off. He had fled Shanghai without a passport, At first the man's plight sound- ed amusing, But it long ago ceased to be a joke to O'Brien, Then a Brazilian consul issued him an immigration permit. But now the immigration service at Rio de Janeiro has refused to honor this, and O'Brien is en route back to Italy in the brig of the French liner Bretagne. He wanted to live in Brazil because his white Russian wife already had emigrated there after the fall of China to the Com- munists, Their six-year-old son is said to be with friends in Aus- tralia.

How many refugees from a score of war -swept lands are in plights similar to that of O'Brien without circumstances that lend themselves to publicity? It is a sad world in which it is so easy to become a "man without a country" where, families can so readily be separated and where reunion is so difficult, The bars of the McCarren Act in the United States have been much discussed, Other lands have their. barriers, too.

The world should be, more willing to open the doors of opportunity, Pre -treat a new paint brush by suspending it in linseed oil for 12 hours before using.

Photos by Some Freak Doings Of Lightning The normal chances of being struck by lightning are millions to one, and tEe way to avoid being the one is to team nbout lightning, So much superstition has ac- cumulated about lightniti,g thr- ough the centuries that now it is hard for .scientists to make known the truths that have been discovered. How much do you know about lightning? Safest Place Is it true that lightning never strikes twice in the same place? It Is false. Some trees have been struck several times Tall projecting buildings like the Eiffel Tower and the Empirr• State Building are often struck, but lightning conductors prevent damage, The odds against any house in a town being struck are thousands to one, They re- main the same, neither more nor less, if it has already been struck once, Where is the safest blue in a thunderstorm? 'In your home. People are very rarely struck by lightning inside a house. The safest. place in the house is any- where away from a fireplace. In a severe storm avoid standing between two windows. And the most dangerous place? Undoubtedly in the open near a wire fence or metal pipe, Cat- tle touching fences have been electrocuted miles from the point where the lightning struck. Other places to avoid arc ex- posed -hills, any open flat space, or any but or sl?elter standing, by itself, If you haven't time to take shelter in a substantial building before a storm is over- head, better lie down flat. Does metal "attract" lightning? That is true within limits. It is better to .drop your golf club or garden fork. If you are in- doors, you don't have to stop handling a spoon and fork! The "attraction" of metal once 1ighping has struck has produced freak results, Not long ego a roan otherwise unhurt, had all the pound notes in his pocket neatly split into two down the 1' Simple Tricks Will Solve Packing Problenir, Actress Virginia Mayo saves space in her eultcase by tucking stockings in toes of shoes. metal stripes. Collar-stud, and keys have been melted. Moisture offers an easy path. For this reason some experts advise you, not to have a .bath in a thunderstorm! Wet shoes and clothes slightly increase the danger—another good reason for, sheltering, Of two golfers who insisted on continuing to play in a thunderstorm a few years ago, one was killed and the • other — wearing goloshes escaped. You should be safe In " a motor car or aeroplane. Lightning may strike, but is unlikely to do harm, It is easy to keep out of the way ,of lightning.

All the more reason for making sure you are not one of them by taking sim- ple precautions based on science. TABLE TALKS edam 4rdbews Here's a timely recipe for a "mock" mincemeat which keeps perfectly and, so most folks who have tried it say, can't be told from the "real thing." And it's a lot less expensive! • • • MOCK MINCEMEAT 3 pounds green tomatoes, 3 pounds apples (chopped not too fine)' • 2 pounds raisins 34 pounds brown sugar 1 cup suet, chopped 1 cup vinegar 2 tablespoons cinnamon 2 teaspoons each, cloves and nutmeg • Salt Put green tomatoes through a coarse food grinder; place in pan with 2 tablespoons salt and cover with cold water; bring to a boil (stir several times to prevent sticking), Drain off the water (it will be a greenish color), ,add 1 tablespoon salt and again cover with cold water and bring to a boil; drain and repeat process once more, Pour into colander to drain, well, Combine all other in- gedients and add tomatoes; boil slowly, stirring often and well, for 2 hours, or until the bits of suet and apple are well cooked. Place in quart jars while hot and seal. 'One quart makes a nice, big pie. This recipe makes 5 quarts, • ' • • These drop cookies, made ac- cording to the recipe, are a bit on the crisp side; but they can be made to soften themselves by adding a half -apple or a slide of bread to the 'jar in which they're kept. ! * • .

Bit EDNA MILES THIS is a country In which people aro constantly on the move, Autumn vacations, busi- ness trips, treks back to college and visits to friends and rela- tives all d'fid up to much travel by plane, ,train or car. Packing still can present knotty problems despite the syn- thetics that launder so readily and dry so fast. All those little things that must be packed can occupy an impressive amount of space if planning is not careful. To get the most from each inch of space, use tricks like rolling stockings into little balls and pushing them into the toes of the shoes you're packing. Use tissue paper to prevent creases in clothes, but be stingy with it. Great layers of, tissue mean bulk and' actually aren't necessary, since many of today's fabrics hang out readily after the unpacking. In place of your dressing table jars, spoon small amounts of creams and lotions into the little plastic jars and bottles that you .can buy.

THFAN ENT With the approach of5winter it is a good time to give some extra thought to fire protection. Fur- naces will coon be lit • and fire hazards can be reduced by hav- ing them in good working order. Among the most common causes of fire in rural Canadian homes are those originating from heat- ing and cooking equipment, * • • �, Fire insurance companies list the following as frequent , causes of farm firer: chimneys of sub- standard- construction; sparks. from dirty chimneys; faulty smoke -pipes and stove installa- tions; seasonal grass and bush fires; spontneous ignition of hay; worn-out shingle roofs; lighted lanterns; mis-use of electrical equipment; threshing and other operation with gasoline power- ed engines; matches or smoking in barns and other farm build- ings; lightning. * • - Most fires originating from this list could be prevented by checking on faulty construction or equipment, for the time to prevent a fire is before it starts: Chimneys and smoke pipes can be inspected, gasoline can be stored away from main buildings, oily rags never left lying about. Even lightning can be guarded against with arresters, • * • An excellent fire prevention on a farm is a roof ladder. Keep a few buckets of_ water ready for use and a number of water barrels at suitable pointe is an added precaution. But• they are worse than useless if the water is frozen solid should a sudden emegency arise, so choose a re- latively warm place, • • * A' reliable fire extinguisher is a good investment, particularly if equipped to handle gasoline fires. It will often be enough to scotch an incipient fire and pre- vent disaster. • * • iodine in salt is easily lost, Tests' show •that all the iodine in salt blocks disappears in two months after exposure in pas- ture, ancE there is no chemical method' of preventing this. loss, The' answer is to put out at a time only asmuch iodized salt as the animals will lick in a few days, • • • Salt loses ,its iodine less quickly when, fed in the stall, but providing smaller quantities more frequently will guard against insufficient iodine in- take by livestock. You NEEDN'T SU ?" �'THAN ANN A BEARTRAP/ Iodized rock salt will keep well for about nine months if stored in a dry place in its original container. Loose salt contain- ing iodine will remain stable up to 15 months if kept in tightly closed glass jars. • • • What is believed to be the first attempt to spray a virus disease from an aeroplane to aid in control of a serious forest in- sect pest, was made in south- western Ontario early this sum- mer, * • • A virus disease was used by growers of Scotch pine in the area to control infestations of the European pine sawfly, About 500 acres were sprayed with the virus from aircraft in the Bothwell, Stratford, and Woodstock areas. Another 200 acres were sprayed with hand - sprayers by the growers, and windbreaks and ornamental hed- ges were sprayed with mist - blowers by officials of the On- tario .Departments of Highways, and Lands and Forests, • • • The virus suspension was ap- plied from aircraft at the rate of one gallon per acre, To each 20 gallons of spray, one pound of skim milk powder was added as a sticker.

LESSON A Slave Becomes a Brother Philemon 8-21 Memory Selection: . There Is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are alt one in Christ Jesus, Gal» atians 3:28. Onesimus was one of Phile- mon's slaves at Collosse, Appar- ently he had stolen some of his master's money and run away. In Rome he came into contact with Paul who was then nearing the end of his first imprisonment. Under Paul's ministry Onesimus became a Christian, Then came the question of restitution. One- simus was really the property of Philemon who had the legal right to put to death his run- away slave, But it so happened that Philemon was also one of Paul's converts. So Paul wrote this letter .to Philemon and gave it to Onesimus to take with him as he returned to his master, Psychology was unknown as a science in Paul's day, but Paul certainly knew the tactful way to approach people, He spoke well of the runaway slave. In fact Paul would have liked to have re- tained him as a helper. He re- minds Philemon of his debt and appeals to him to be good to Onesimus, That the letter was successful, we have no doubt. The fact that Philemon made ,his letter acces- sible to the church is evidence. As the meaning of Christianity became more understood slavery was finally abolished. Jesus and Paul did not sponsor revolutions against this evil but ti:e meaning of brothers in Christ finally won. The black and yellow races are coming to resent the supremacy of the whites. Do you blame them? Does brotherhood i n Christ not apply to races as well as to individuals? Recently there were numerous letters in a city daily, some of which expressed disgust because many immigrants still speak occasionally in their native tongue, Why should they forget the language of their native land? The snobbishness of some Can- adians does not reflect credit on them, All of us, whoever we are, must humble ourselves under the might of God and come as con- trite sinners to Jesus Christ. There is one Saviour for all men, UP-TO-DATE ARMY - A group of psychologists re- cently made investigations into the efficiency of the Army and Navy. One team made a film of a certain kind of field -gun drill and noticed .that No. 6 of the gun's crew stood unassisting and strictly to attention during the whole of the drill, Inquiries as to what this man was supposed to be doing drew a blank, Eventually, they tackled, a veteran sergeant -major, one who had fought in the Boer War. He told them that No. 6 was the man who used to hold the horses! Reunion After Six Years -Alfred C.
