to do! I am desperately lonely.
My husband goes out all the time,
and on most weekends we don't
see him from Friday to Sunday
night, He has no love for us, 1
might as well be married to a
stone,
"I wash clothes on a board, and
carry water from the creek, We
h..ve very little money for the
store bill, because he buys high-
priced guns and spends the rest
on his car, As for clothes, he
buys me a dress about every
two years.
SEE NO FRIENDS
"Last Sunday before he went
out I asked him to take us for a
ride, He said he and his friends
were going odt — so we stayed
home, If I could drive the car,
the children and I could get out
once in a while; but he says the
car is his, and he refuses to let
me learn to run it. Weeks go by
at a time and I don't have any-
one to talk to!
"I married very young, and
not once in these 11 years has
he ' taken me out anywhere.
Don't you think I have the right
to learn to drive? Please print

understand how lonesome and
heartsick his wife and children
are ... All I get to live for is
another day's work!

Christmas Gifts
hi Leather
Leather, leather — and more
leather is showing up in the
stores this Christmas shopping
season in a dazzling variety of
gifts,
Good-looking leather gifts
ranging from the new casual
shoes for father and mother to
saucy collars and cuffs for sis-
ter, or a new football for Jun-
ior, are going to be found un-
der an awful lot of trees this
year.
You can use leather gifts to
satisfy the two chief categories
on your list: Those who want
something glamorous and gay,
and those who want something
practical. Leather is both.
Leather also has the advan-
tage of being suitable efor both
men and women, Watch a man
rub his hand over a new piece
of leather luggage, or a new pair
of leather shoes. You can sense
the feeling of pride he takes in
genuine leather articles. Or ob-
serve a woman whophas just
cone home with a pair of shoes
and matching bag in smooth,
glowing leather, She gets a true
feeling of luxury out of what
are really basic necessities,
For the ladies, of course, you
can never go wrong by select-
ing a leather handbag, which
lends a note of elegance to any.
costume, or a leather belt — and
belts are HOT this year; or
leather gloves; or maybe a leath-
er wallet — perhaps with gay'
bold designs embossed on it: or
an exciting leather coat in
smooth or suede leathers. And,
just a tip, leather coats are
burning up the country this
year, from coast to coast.

Time stoves on, and once again
it is my privilege to wish every-
one who reads this column a
very Happy Christmas. That I do
with all my heart because, as
you know, happiness is meant to
be shared, especially at Christ-
mas time—and we certainly hope
and expect this will be a happy
Christmas in our family circle.
With a newly acquired daughter-
in-law and a brand new grand-
son how could it be otherwise?
And then of course there is that
spirit of giving, Few of us can
be really happy 'unless we are
conscious of having contributed
in some small way to the hap-
piness of others, That, surely, is
why we exchange greeting cards
and gifts at Christmastide. If we
lose the desire to give happiness,
if we give presents only because
it is "the thing to do" their there
is a shallowness to our giving
that makes itself felt. It even
finds expression in the gifts, we
offer; in the ill -chosen but some-
times expensive gift that gives
litSle pleasure to the recipient.
So different from the handmade,
or carefully selected gift, chosen
because we are perfectly sure
it is the very thing to bring
pleasure or comfort. Even a box .
of chocolates should be chosen
with care. Grandpa may have a
sweet tooth so a generous assort-
ment tyf chocolates with soft
filled centres delight him. But
oh, the disappointment when half
the chocolates are nut -filled or
with hard -candy centres! Grand-
pa feels cheated, annoyed that
John or Mary had so little
thought for him that they forgot
about his poor old store -teeth,
Wills have been changed for
just such little acts of thought-
lessness.

things but the 'ittle things—done

If only mothers would learn to

dren, talking over the real mean-
ing of Christmas; or of .Christ-
mases long past when they were

hear such stories over and over
again, Or perhaps a carol sing-
song, giving the origin of the old
Christmas carols. The children

the quiet session; tension would

Elwood worked in the fields near
Sandisfleld, Mass., he composed
the well-known verses. He' had
no paper or pencil with him and,
fearing he might forget the
words, he picked up a piece of
chalk- from the field and wrote
the words on his hat,

Christmas morning, Children
were laughing among themselves;
church bells were ringing and.
Charles was so impressed he ex-

charming and very beautiful in

Carol singing has always been

d wive again, aht,.il,.I' Ci.e) Cup foot -
.4:11 classic has been written into the
voiorful saga of one of Canada's inost
picturesque sports events, an epic strug-
gle that annually attracts more far-flung
attention and wider interest in these
Dominions than perhaps any other sports
.. . ailing the Stanley Cup finals,
And once again, this column raises a plaintive voice to en
quire why and on what grounds the entire football populace
of Canada's west, and a Targe proportion of the same hardy
breed in the east, are excluded by mandate from viewing any
part of this gridiron spectacle?
The answer to this is likely to be that Toronto's huge Var.
sity Stadium, with its 28,000 seats, can accommodate more
people than any other bowl in Canada. If that's the answer,
it isn't a good one because it contains two holes through
which you could shoot a 250 -pound line plunger.
The first gap In this line of thought, presuming it exists,
Is that In giving Toronto the monopoly on this game, several
thousand Canadians, west anti east, who couldn't afford a trip
of Toronto, and probably couldn't secure a scat for the game
if they got there, are shut out.
And these several thousand are ,the folks who, by giving
their whole -hearted support to the teams of the Western
Conference on the prairies, and the Big Four in, the east,
make the Grey Cup spectacle possible,
The second yawning gulf in the answer. is financial, If the
Grey Cup is to be made a medium for extracting the ultimate
in -dollars, then its practical proponents are missin', a bet.
If it were played on, the salve practical -basis ass.M,the baseball
World Series, or the hockey Stanley Cup, two osiJs: would be
served, Those who helped make the:series pptysiple . would
see the games, and the receipts of, say; a 3-ging:Niles, one
east, two west, and vice versa in biter -nate year9'i•,}vould more
than equal the returns from a single game, •
There are those who urge that this is Canada's'inost gaudy,
glittering and colorful sports drama of the year. We agree.
But we don't agree to the argument that it should be
Ihnited to one game, one city, or to the theory. that it would
cheapen the Cup finals to broaden the scope, It hasn't
cheapened the world's baseball series or the Stanley Cup
series in any noticeable way, and these give the fans who
paid all season a chance to view not only the prologue, but
the final drama,. So it should be with the Grey Cup.
Your comments and suggestions for th(rcolu,nn, will be welcomed

Among the books we • brought
home from our trip to Nova
Scotia last September, there is
one which we can strongly rec-
ommend to qach and all who are
interested in co-operation.
It is the life story of "Father
Tompkins of Nova Scotia," right-
ly called the founder of the
Antigonish Movement,
The author, George Boyle, had
known Father "Jimmy" Tomp-
kins for more than thirty years
and renders his story in clear
simple words.
Adult Education,
To help people help them-
selves, was Father Jimmy's life
work. His great love of God and
his Fellow Man, his infinite faith
in the people and their funda-
mental goodness, his compassion
on their mute suffering, his un-
bounded spirit, gave this frail
little priest the strength to car-
r on the fight for, the Brother-
hood of Man under the Father.
hood of 'God.
It was, Father Tompkins' in-
tense belief that if people were
only given the knowledge of how
to go about it, they would be
able to free themselves from' the
shackles of a "feudalistic• econ-
omic system" which was holding
them down in poverty, malnu
•trition, ignorance and apathy.
"Adult Education" was his
magic formula, "at the pit heads,
down in the mines, out among
the fishermen's shacks, long the
wharves, and 'whenever the far-
nier's gather to sit and talk in the

evenings." Out of it came the
Rural Conferences, the Extension
Department of • St. Francis
Xavier University, the Antigon-
ish Movement.
Cream for the Few.
His first act in his. little par-
ish of Canso, where he was exiled
for his "radical" ideas, was to
start a credit union,
"Capital must be decentraliz-
ed," lie wrote to a friend, "Our.
Branch Banking is making us a
glorified branch nation all al-
ong the line. I notice in Canso
for instance — an important fish-
ing center — that the people are
poorer and more dependent today
than they overe twenty years
ago."
"They damn the place, thea'
employment and their employ
ers. They do not know what the
(natter is, and they are too poor
and too ignorant to find out for
themselves, The reason back of
it all is that they are being ex-
ploited by fish firms owned by
men in Montreal and anywhere
else but Canso, Montreal banks
will give money to Montreal (Ten,
but Canso has no money to help
encourage Canso brains."
"And so we become, as 1 said,
a branch people, and a few
places hundreds of thousands �f
miles away skim off the cream,
which goes into the pockets of
the very few — not the best
place to keep cream, but you will
forgive the figure."
First Co-op.
Ile encouraged .his fishermen to
pool their resources and to send
a crate of lobsters, for which
they would have received from
the local dealer the grand sum
of $9,75, to a merchant in Bos
ton,
When, after weeks ot anxious
waiting and speculation, back
came a cheque for $32,' the first
lobster marketing co-op was un-
der way, Today it operates one
of the largest, if not the largest,
lobster cannery in the world.
Father Jimmy's love of people,
was all -embracing; it was cath-
olic in the strict sense of the
word, which means universal
"I do not know of any Catholic
or Methodist way of cutting coal -
or canning Iobster," he used to
say,
• Father Jimmy Tompkins is
,dead, but his work is carried on
by the men who cane after him
and'hls memory continues in the
minds and hearts of the fisher-
men and miners the lumbermen

Do you happen to recall a
character named Arthur Newton
who ran for 24 hours, in Ham-
ilton, and covered 152 miles or
thereabouts?
Well,, if you do, you certainly
can't play junior any longer, be-
cause it was over 22 years ago.
Personally, we had forgotten all
about it till our memory was
jogged by a piece in The Chris-
tian Science Monitor by Sydney
Skilton, writing from London,
England.
Take it away, Sydney!
*
We have had one of those go -
as -you -please endurance tests
that used to so fascinate our
grandfathers. On the University
of London track at Hotspur Park
eight men entered and six start-
ed for a 24 hours running race.
Three were there at the end, the
winner having covered 0371/4
laps of the fora ;to -the -mile cin-
der track.
He was Walter Hayward, a
45 -year-old Johannesburg build-
ing inspector. His official dis-
tance, which rates as an unoffi-
cial world record, was 159 miles
562 yards. It was 7 miles 22
yards further than the previous
best distance that stood to the
credit of Hayward's host, Ar-
thur ' Newton. His performance,
riccomplished • as a professional,
was on a square 13 laps to the.
mile track at Hamilton, Ontario,
in 1931. « «
Second to Hayward was Derek
Reynolds, a 39 -year-old Lon-
doner, with a distance of 154
miles 1,226 yards, which also im-
proved on Newton's best per-
formance and' which rates as the
best -ever by an Englishman,
Third was Leslie Griffiths, of
Reading Athletic Club, Aged 48
years, and the oldest of the six
starters, Griffiths went off the
track for two hours during the
night, but after deciding to re-
sume went on to complete 120
miles 248 yards.
Hayward, too, went off the
track for half an hour after com-
pleting 100 miles, To that • Hine
he had been trotting rhythmic-
ally round and round the cir-
cuit, averdging a steady eight
miles an hour. But after resum-
ing he never recovered the
rhythm and eventually finished
a completely exhausted man.
* « «
While being assisted to the
dressing room, Hayward was
asked by Newton "Well, it was
worth it, wasn't it?" To which
a distressed Hayward gulped

"Never again." But loss than 48
hours afterwards as he boarded
a plane for home he had changed
his mind and stated "I'11 try the
run once more, if it can he ar-
ran';ed,"

There's the 'rub. Arranging
these things is quite an expen-
sive business because there is
so little return. Nobody paid
Hayward and his fellow com-
petitors to run Ind nobody paid
to watch them, But the hiring
of the track, the refreshments
for the competitors and those
for the recorders, markers and
timekeepers all have to be paid
for. The payees are the few and
scattered devotees of this pecu-
liar pastime of ultra distance
running. They come from all
parts of the world.
I•l:ayward, as we have men-
tioned comes from South,.Africa.
He travelled to Britain entirely
at his. own expense; spending
£500 of his savings to do so.
While here he set new records
for the London to Brighton (50
;Hiles) and Bath to London (100
miles) runs. They were wcrk-
outs for his 24-hour effort. He
arrived home, after an absence
of 55 days, as the greater ultra -
distance runner in history.
* « «
The trip would nut have been
possible had it not been for the
camaraderie of these indefatig-
able long -journeymen. Host to
Hayward while in this country
was 70 -year-old Arthur Newton
who did not take to running un-
til well into his 30's and then
only to draw attention to what
he considered an unjust confis-
cation of his farming land in
Natal. In one of his books New-
ton states that he was confronted
with two alternatives in order to
draw publicity to his case. One
was to be sent to prison for
cringe and the other was to be.
come a sports champion. He be-
came a champion marathon run-
ner, winning races and setting
records in the continents of Af-
rica, Europe, and America.
« « «
In due course Newlon captal-
?zed on his athletic prowess and
although today he still rates as a
professional he has never lost
his love of running for the sheer
joy of running. Thus it was a
typical Newton action to invite
Hayward to board and lodge at
the Newton hone in Ruislip,
some 20 miles northwest of Lon-
don, « « «
Another old-timer, rallying
round the hailing of Haywards
to Britain WAS Peter Guvuzzi
who handled the feeding ar-
rangements, Gavuzzi will hest
be remembered as runner-up in
that fabulous trans -Continental
race from New York to Los An-
geles in 1929, He is regarded as
an authority on racing refresh-
ment where his golden rule is
"No solids." Thus Hayward dur-
ing his remarkable feats of sta-
mina had a diet of egg -custard
and rice and ,frequent swigs of
warmed lemon juice laced with
sugar and salt, The patient offi-
cials were those who -needed the
proteins!

Jap Camera Fiends
A new enthusiasm for pho-
tography in Japan has caused
a domestic sales boom .for the
camera industry, growth of
which is just about the top suc-
cess story of postwar Japan.
According to a recent survey,
3,500,000 Japanese own cameras.
If the present sales rate contin-
ues, one-third of Japan's 8(1,000,-
000 persons may possess cameras
within a few years.
Wealthier Japanese were noted
for their interest in photography
before, the war. But photogra-
phy in Japan has now become a
hobby for rich and poor alike.
Immediately after the war,
there was little money for cam-
eras or other goods which were
not essential, But with the sub-
sequent rise in the standard of
living, people have had more
money for hobbies and pho-
tography has proved about the
most popular. Postwar Japan-
ese cameras rival Europe's best
for quality and durability.
Thousands of camera shops
have sprung up throughout the
country during the past three
years. Major camera manufac-
turers and photographic maga-
zines hold nationwide annual
competitions which.attract world-
wide attention.
American servicemen- station-
ed in Japan are as enthusiastic
as the Japanese about photog-'
raphy. There are few servicemen
in Japan or Korea who do not
own a camera, usually a "qual-
ity" one made in Japan.
An agency which supplies cam-
eras to military stores in Japan
reported that in the first eight
months of this year it bight 40,-
003 cameras worth $2,029,537
from .different Japanese compan-
ies.
Japan produced 402,769 cam-
eras last year. Of these, 72,483
valued at $1,220,000 were sold
to United Nations forces, The
remainder went to the home
market and for export..
To increase sales, and to .earn
foreign currency, the Japanese
Government allows tourists to
buy cameras free of tax. Sev-
eral firms in the'large cities deal
only with tourists,.

IN MEMORIAM
DOBBYN—hr loving memory of a dear
husband and father who passed away
one year ago, December 14th, 1952,
How we miss the welcome footsteps,
Of. the one we loved so dear,
Often we listen for his coining,
Fully sure that he Is near.
II we could speak w:th h'm to -d y,
Laugh with hhn in the same old way,
And hear his voice, and see him sm le,
Then life Indeed would be worthwhile,
—Always remembered by wife, Erma,
and children, Ronald and Lois, 08.1,

Susan J. Moore of Detroit, remarks U;,
the very fine weather the Detroit area
was enjoying, and. aisa expressing the
hope that it would .continue on Into

For her benefit The Standard can
say that during Monday this distract
was transformed from comparatively
lovely autumn weather, which we had
been enjoying all fill, into the dead of
winter. We wonder how things rre
in Detroit. Hope they missed;, the bliz-

The Dog
and the Bone
A DOG was crossing a plank bridge over a stream
with a piece of )neat in his mouth, when he happened to
sec his own reflection in the water. Hc thought it was
another dog with a piece of meat twice as big; so he
let go his own, and flew at the other dog to get
the larger piece. But, of course, all that happened
was that he got neither: for one was only a shadow;;
and the other was carried away by the current.

cleared the line for a call back
to the Detroit main exchange.
She explained the situation to
head office, they in turn notified
the police, and Mrs. Lyons was
rushed to hospital where a haem-

cessfully treated.

Winter Care
For Your Feet
As winter's chilly blasts usher
in the party season, our minds
are fixed on slimmer waistlines,
glossier hairdos and .more beau-
tiful complexions. But it won't
help if you're hobbling around on
feet that add ten years to your
age.
You wouldn't dream of sloshing
barefoot through snow and slush
on your round of holiday parties.
Chances are, though, you'll do
almost as much damage to your
feet simply by taking them for
granted.
Foot doctors have traced a lot
of winter foot ills to shoes ,that
fit badly or that are made of in-
ferior materials, Most warren
don't realize that ill-fitting shoes
may impede blood circulation and
bring on chilblains and even a
bad case of frostbite quicker than
a trip to the Arctic. That's one
reason why foot doctors recom-
mend nightly foot exercises to
tone up sluggish blood vessels,
and to keep the tiny bones and
muscles in trim,
Another basic piece of advice
they offer is the wearing of all -
leather shoes, fitted with plenty
of toe -wiggling room to prevent
constriction.
Leather, being an animal hide
and the closest thing to the hu-
man akin, retains its breathing
pores. This means it allows air
to pass through the shoes to ev-
aporate foot moisture, at the
same time as it insulates your
feet against the cold, There's no
better way to avoid that clammy
condition inside the shoe which
chills the entire body.
Oddly, quite a lot of trouble de-
velops from over -protecting the
feet. By all means keep them
dry, but don't suffocate them by
wearing galoshes or overshoes in-
doors, on heated buses, autos or
trains, Worn too many hours at
a time, rubbers will hike foot
temperatures inside the • shoe,
causing excessive perspiration,
swelling and skin sensitivity.
That's an open invitation to the
common cold,
Shod with all -leather shoes
that give down-to-earth walking
comfort, your underpinnings will
get added benefit from a nightly
treatment. To begin with, give
them a pep bath—a handful of
bicarbonate of socia m,ixed with
warm water. After a cool rinse,
dust the feet with a foot powder.
Then follow up with some simple
exercises, First, take fifty steps
around the bedroom on your -toes
—it loosens all the small bones,
muscles and ligaments. As a bun-
ion -prevention measure, rotate
the big toe by hand for a few
minutes, and wind up by rubbing
the soles briskly with a dry
towel.
Follow these recommendations
and you'll get through winter's
snow and slush on your own two
feet—without grimacing in pain.

136th YEAR IS RECORD
GORDON R. BALL
ARTHUR C. JENSEN
BofM HEAD STRESSES NEW NEED FOR
SALESMANSHIP, EFFICIENCY, REALISM
Gordon Ball Sees Keener Competition and Return of
Normal Hazards of Enterprise
ARTHUR JENSEN, GENERAL MANAGER, PRESENTS
RECORD STATEMENT, REVIEWS BUSINESS •
OUTLOOK, PRAISES PERSONNEL
Keener competition and the return of normal hazards of
enterprise were given as reasons for a renewed emphasis on
salesmanship, efficiency and sober realism in business by Gor-
don R. Ball, president .of the Bank of" Montreal, at its 136th
annual meeting of shareholders,
In reviewing the Canadian business picture during the past
year, the B. of M; president said that "we seem to have passed
from a situation in which nearly all business influences were
buoyant to one in which the normal hazards of enterprise are
once more apparent."
"The business landscape," he
said, "has begun to show a more
varied pattern of light and shade.
Some industries, particularly
those dependent on export mar-
kets, have been encountering dif-
ficulties. Competition has been
keener, both in domestic and for-
eign trade."
Mr, Ball maintained that, while
these developments did not jus-
tify a gloomy view of Canada's
prospects, they did suggest the
need for "a healthy awareness
that boom conditions of easy
selling and easy profits are sub-
siding."
"I am still an optimist," he
said, "regarding Canada's future,
but sensible optimism includes
a candid recognition that the
immediate prospect places a re-
newed emphasis on salesman-
ship, efficiency and sober real-
ism."
Moro Intensive and Economic
Use of Reso'rces
The speaker saw in the im-
provement that had taken place
during the past year in the
sphere of international trade
and finance "a great opportunity
for further bold advances to-
wards more intensive and eco-
nomic use of resources."
He felt it would' be tragic if,
just at the time when the mili-
tary and political defences of
nations of goodwill were being
strengthened, the economic gains
of the recent past were to be
lost,
"It is up to all of us, in. all
countries, who stand with pri-
vate enterprise to demonstrate
here and now that the system
that we rightly believe- produces
most and contributes most fully
to well-being does not inevit-
ably beget periods of slump and
mass unemployment,
"That, as I see it, is the great
and immediate challenge of the
present day. And that challenge
will not be met if the bogey of
over -production should drive in-
dividual nations behind the bar-
ricades of high tariffs and in-
tensified restrictions."
Mr, Ball saw the need of the
immediate future as the speedy
furtherance of trade policies
based fundamentally on recog-
nition of three facts: first, that
the welfare of the free nations
is inter -dependent' second, that
the objective of "trade riot aid"
can be achieved only with the
full realization that trade is a
two-way process; and third,
that It is idle to talk of endur-
ing peace without deliberate
meausres designed to help less
fortunate , countries to help
themselves by giving them a
fair chance to sell in external
markets.
y
General Manarr Presents
Record Report
Arthur C. Jensen, general
manager, presented the bank's
136th annual statement, showing
deposits, loans and total resour-
ces at the highest figures on
record, with earning moderate-
ly up from the 1952 level.
Commenting on the rise in the
bank's current loans to a new
high of $787 million, the gener-
al manager pointed out that
"the increase of $124 million is
considerable and, while it re-
flects the additional funds re-
quired to finance the large
carryover of wheat as well as
some increase in the consumer
credit field, most sectors of our
loaning business are in higher
figures than at the end of the
last fiscal year,"
Mr. Jensen referred to the re-
cent proposal by the Federal
Government to empower the
chartered banks to lend money
against mortgage security for
new housing. "I think I should
perhaps say that, for our part
we are examining the proposal
with a co-operative and open
mind, particularly in view of
those features that provide for
insurance of mortgages and for
eligibility of such mortgages for
• rediscount at the Bank of Cana-
da."
Scant Evidence of Downturn
in Hu''ness
In concluding his review of
business conditions, the general
manager referred to the com.
monly heard suggestion that
1954 might witness some slow-.
ing down in Canada's progress,
"Certainly, if there is any ap-
preciable,.or prolonged slacken-
ing of business activity in the
United' States," lie said, "it is
only to be expected that the
effects will be felt in this coun-
try.
"It is not my purpose here to
attempt to prophesy, but rather
to paint in the economic back-
ground against which the bank's

at the home cf Mr. and Mrs. Richard
Procter with a smaller attendance than
usual on account of road and weather
conditions. Discussion followed the
radio broadcast and it was decided that
the town and city people are poorly in•
formed on facts of farming. They do
not know or in some cases care, of the
expenses and loss farmers suffer dur-
ing the year. More agriculture taught
in city schools would help, and facts
printed In papers also. A good field
man would also help. The minutes of
