I, for instance, have always tried in every way to be a good mother and mother-in-law, and never interfered in my son's married life, Yet still his wife has never shown any consideration for our family,". So writes a desolated mother who feels she has lost her son through marriage. She continues: "They have been married a long time. Not once have we been asked to their house. My son never conies to see us, and it hurts us so. They are even keeping o u r grandchildren away. "Why are good parents sup- posed to suffer like this? It seems a son cannot love his wife and his folks too. (How can a man be so weak)? I must have failed in a big way.... Is there no such thing any more as hon- oring thy father and thy mother?

LONESOME DIVORCEE "Dear Anne Hirst: I ani 30, and divorced, (I married at 15). One of my children is married, and I have a teen-age boy with me. I live a very lonely life, "I don't drink nor smoke, and I like wholesome pleasures. I should like to meet some decent man (I'm sure there are some left) but I am backward by na- ture, and its is hard for a wo- man to encourage new men and not be misunderstood. Have you any ideas? Rita," * To other lonely women who * write me I suggest they inter- * est themselves in community * affairs that attract other peo- * ple of their age. The many ac- * tivities of your church should * be productive, and civic * groups attract intelligent and * worthwhile men as well as * women. * Hospitals, institutions, and * some libraries appreciate part- * time volunteers, and their * contacts might prove helpful * as well as interesting, Any * activity ' that requires your * regular attendance, and your * enthusiasm, will widen your * acquaintance and keep your * mind alert and receptive. • No lonely person meets new * friends by sitting at home and * wishing, You must go where * nice people congregate, and * attach yourself to groups that * can use your talents.

People who study together, play together or work together usually develop • some degree of fellowship. But the fellowship of the early church is the purest and most . effective of which we have record, No one was left in need. There was unity and glad- ness. God was the object bf their praise. It is no wonder that "the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved," This fellow- ship was attractive, It was not designed to protect and further their own interests. Its purpose was to bring others into disciple- ship of Jesus Christ. It was not selfish, It had an outreach. This spirit should always character- ize the spirit of Christians. When we become self-centred we have lost the spirit of Christ. Sinners are not drawn by such a cold and sterile form, Snobbishness • has no place in the Christian's life. Paul calls for the church to put on "Mercies, kindness, hum- bleness of mind, meekness, long- suffering; forebearing one an- other, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any." These are to he girded by love. Then it will be easy to let the peace of God rule in our hearts, If many more people, including leaders, in the nations around the world had this peace our fears of a third world war would disappear. Love displaces hate and those other evils as greed and lust for power that make for war, Chris- tians must be alerted.

These Mink Travel A Long 'Distance Plenty_ of minkon the paw, enough for thirteen full length coats worthy of milady's most meticulous taste, passed through Montreal recently aboard a Can- adian National Railways 'express car. Former residents of Lulu Island, B.C„ the 737 squealing, prized rodents, valued at $81,000, and their owner, William Dawe, moved lock, stock and barrel to a new ranch site at Whitbourne, Newfoundland, to cash in on an extremelyenticing offer from Premier Joseph Smallwood and his provincial government. The provincial body footed the bill for all transfercharges in- cluding 200 pounds of horse meat the mink consumed during their 4,500 -mile trip, A policy of encouraging mink ranchers to settle in the island province, to tie in -with the whaling industry, is expected to make Newfound- land the world's leading centre for mink, The ravenous little creatures each eat one-third of a pound of ground horsemeat a day, which at 12 cents a pound, runs up a pretty lofty grocery bill. In com- parison, • Newfoundland, with its large whaling operations, makes it possible for. the mink breeders to purchase whalemeat, richerin proteins than either beef or. horsemeat, for, two cents • a pound. ISSUE 19 — 1955 • • • Ir 1, , Wild Bear Did Baby -Sitting Demetrios and Sophia Yana poulos, peasants in an isolated spot on the slopes of mount Zygos, highest peak of the Pin- dus range in Greece, had a ter. rible fright recently when they saw their three-year-old son Constantine being cradled by a bear. The couple had ' left their stone cottage, carrying a sack of old rags, a pair of bellows and a large earthenware jar, and gone into the forest in search of honey. Constantine, meanwhile, stay- ed alone in his cot, That day a bear cub came prowling around the silent house, He went up to the open door, lifted his wet muzzle and sniffed. A gleam of pleasure shone in his little eyes; his pink tongue licked his chops. He re• cognized the smell of honey. He pushed against the door and approached a jar in a cor- ner of the big room and turned it upside down. Later, stuffed with hbney, he went into the inner room where little Constantine looked with amazement at the strange visitor approaching his cradle, As Demetrios and' Sophia walked home, they congratu- lated themselves on a magnifi- cent crop of honey, They dis- cussed the good pricethey would get for it at the market and how they would spend the money. "I shall buy Constantine a bear cub -- a plush one with black glass eyes," said Demetri- os, Sophia clapped her hands. "It seems I can hear him laughing already_. , ," She stopped suddenly, Yes, Constantine really was shriek- ing with laughter, and squeal- ing as though someone was tickling him, They entered the child's room and .a strange sight met their eyes. • Little Constantine was in his cot playing with a real bear cub! The unusual playmate was soon found to be harmless but he was made to leave just the same! - = -*. w Iron -On Motifs ONE YARD 681 35 -inch 4, L1444%044 Takes only ONE yard 35 -Inch fabric to whip up this pretty apron!

We mention Lalonde now because he, and not Rocket RIchard of the present Canadiens, is the greatest goal•getter in the history of professional hockey, Richard recently passed the 400 -goals, mark, a tremendous performance. But Lalonde scored 413 goals in major league piny,, in 20 seasons from 1008 to 1927. -Lalonde at various times left the scorers in four different major professional, hockey leagues: the National Association, which'preceded the National League; in both of which lie was top goal -getter at one time or another; the Pacific. Coast League in its hey -day, when it rated superior to the National Association and had drafting rights on the eastern body, and the Western League, when it was, a major organization func- tioning on the prairies. Some of the seasons in which Lalonde starred saw only 14, 15 or 16. games., The longest season in Lalodne's history was 26 games. He played 314 League games in all, In one season with New York Americans; he played only one game and with Saskatoon the year before that, he played only three. Some of Lalonde's 'individual feats are truly incredible. He is one of only two players in all the history of major professional League hockey who scored nine goals in a single game. On March 17, 1910 Lalonde was playing for Renfrew Millionaires, one of the most fabulous teams of all time, and the victim of his dead -shot eye was the Cobalt club. The other player who scored nine goals in a game ended his hockey career with Canadiens. He was Tommy Smith, one of Ottawa's famous Smith family that included Alf and Harry Smith, Tommy was playing. for Quebec Bulldogs in the National Association when he performed the 9 -goal feat. • Montreal Wanderers were the victims. - Some veterans think Lalonde's feat greaterthan that of Richard, but Lalonde is not among these, "Richard is the greatest who ever lived" Lalonde told the writer of this column "It is true we didn't have the advantage of forward passing in the earlier years, but never were we forced to contend with the tremendous amount of Interference that besets Richard and other modern stars."

President Sums Up Yecii By W. A. MATHER, President, Canadian Pacific Railway Company A year in which competitive factors,. already evident in 1953, have become increasingly mani- fest, necessitating the most care- ful scrutiny- of labor and other production costsin all segments 01 the national economy, • emerg- es as the most significant feature of the Canadian" business and industrial scene in 1954. Sustained inflow of invest- ment capital from ' the United States• and abroad has served to offset in part the difficulties that' would. otherwise have been' more evident by reason of, Can- ada's worsened trade position. Continued expansionof the de-. velopment of resources has also WOMB been a• sustaining factor in the economy. ' The substantial decline in Ca- nadian' exports and the less prosperous condition of'agricul- ture in Western' Canada have undoubtedly contributed' to the difficulties of the railway in- dustry. A significant factor. in the decline in rail earnings, however, is the growth of coin - petition from highway transport which has emphasized the need of providing for the railways an, equality of opportunity in meet- ing such competition by reliev- ing them from outmoded re- strictive regulation, • -':So far as regulatory restric- tions allow, substantial efforts have been made 'to meet the competition of highway . truck- " ing and other forms of trans- ' port, Reduced freight rates., on REAL _COOL, SEAT( :MAN—Don't complain' about. the cold—think of engineer Tom Tomlinson,' who works in' a 65 -degree -below - "LOOK OUT—IT'S; LOADED"—Or so you'd think, from the horrified looks on these cagers' faces. Actually, Bill Simonovich, center, let the ball get away from him and Jim Bragiel, left, and Harold Grant hadn't yet reversed gear. certain commodities in certain specified classes of traffic were put into effect during the au- tumn invarious parts of Canada and more particularly between Montreal and Toronto. The railways and other inter- ested parties have appeared during the last three months of 1954 before a special Royal Commission appointed to con- sider the effect of the railways' use of "Agreed Charges" in meeting . competition, In the course of these.,proceedings 'the railways have advocated a re- laxation of the provisions of the Transport Act which governs this form of rate making. Such efforts, however, do not provide a solution to the prob- lem inherent in the statutory rates applicable to grain and grain products in Western Can- ada. The adverse impact' and serious consequences "'of these abnormally depressed rates, set at a level no • higher than in 1899, and which ' affect a sub- stantial .percentage "'of the. total volume of . rail freight traffic, has been commented upon dur- ing the year by the' . Board of Transport Commissioners and by Chief Justice• Sloan of Brit- ish •Columbia in his capacity as Federal Arbitrator in , the ;re- cent regcent rail labor :.negotiations. If the balanced . economic growth so essential to sound na- tional development is to be maintained and . Canada's rail- ways are to meet adequately the nation's transportation needs, public policy • should at an early ,date, : taken ' account , of the views 'thus expressed, . Inauguration of an extensive programme of modernization and • improvement ,of transcon- 'tinental . and other. passenger services was marked, by the delivery in 1954; of, the first' of "•a number of ,units of stream- lined' stainless'. steel 'equipment. manufactured for the Company by the•.Budd Company of • Phil- ' adelphia. . New equipment for service on transcontinental lines will in- clude, -when deliveries are com- 'pleted, 71 sleeping cars, 18 'scenic dome sleepers with bev-' erage room and observation lounge, 18 day, coaches equip- ped with scenic dome and cof- fee shop, 30 conventional day coaches, 18 diners and 18 bag- gage cars with dormitory ac- commodation for dining car crews, The stainless steel day coaches are equipped with adjustable reclining chairs fitted with head and foot rests, making them most comfortable for long dis- tance travel, For the first time in Canada all coach seats may • be reserved, The coffee shop in the day dome coach, as well as • the seats in the dome, will be available to all passengers • on the train. The • new diking cars • are of the most advanced design, with harmonious interiors. and ' kit- , chen equipment of modern stainless steel All . new transcontinental pas- senger equipment now ' being delivered is expected to be in service by the Summer of 1955. The ' new scenic dbme cars now. in service between Mon- treal and Vancouver, operate over a distance of 2,881miles, the world's longest scenic dome operation, Notwithstanding the difficul- ties experienced, the achieve- ments of Canadian Pacific in 1954 mark a substantial advance . in the quality and scope of transportation services both at home- and -abroad; ' All concern- ed have confidence' that the growing public awareness of the need for' equality of competitive opportunity in • all fields Of transportation, now apparent, will find recognition in the realm of national policy. Odd Facts About Playing -Cards There is a case on record of a man who determined to turn up the pack in a certain order, starting with the seven of clubs. He tried millions of times be- fore he succeeded, It took him twenty years, though It might have taken him a great deal longer, He was an inmate of a lunatic asylum in Germany and the pastime kept him happy. The fact is that, mathematic- ally ;speaking, the odds against holding any particular hand are so' enormous that even regular card -players probably never . hold exactly the same hand twice in their lives. This offers a con- solation, If you get a really bad • hand at bridge, you will , prob- ably never' get exactly that hand again in your life, So you can always look forward to a change . of luck, ' Even the odds against holding a hand with no card higher than a 'nine are big, Sucha hand at whist or bridge is 'called a Yarborough, because the Earl of Yarborough when he set down to play, whist would offer 1,000 sovereigns to one against any player receiving such a hand. The Earl was on quite a good thing, On' an average the well - shuffled pack turns up such a hand only about once in 2,000 'deals, Every now and then we read of -four players at bridge or whist being dealt "perfeet" ,hands, each player getting thir- teen cards of one suit, According to ,an expert, with good shuffling of the cards this should only happen once in 2,235,197,408,366,388,301,599,999 hands! The odds against just one of the 'players getting all thir- teen cards of a suit • are small- er'— he 'ought to do it once in 035,013,559,599 deals. The point bridge and whist players often forget is that ' -the odds are exactly the same against holding any specified hand, The ' thirteen cards of one suit hand is talked . about ;because . it .. is useful and easy. to' remember, but it is no more "extraordin- ary'"or "unusual" thanany other hand. If,you 'doubt it,and yottlaire a regular player, write down ' 100 imaginary _hands and then notice_ how many of them, you • hold during the next year — or ten years, It would not be sur- prising if you never held one of the hands in _ a lifetime. If course, these are mathem- atical odds, not certainties, You might deal yourself one of the hands next time you played. Ac. cording to newspaper reports the "perfect hand," with each • player holding a complete suit, turns up much oftener than the mathematical odds suggest it should, In 1926 one player alone • claimed he saw four such hands, whereas, the •,mathematical,•odds suggest' that it should turn up only at • intervals' of millions of • years. Perhaps it is something to do with the shuffling. Mathemati- cians work on "perfect" shuffl- ing and in real card -playing there can be no such thing, • PLAYED FOR SUCKER Pieter Kriel, aged twenty four, of Durban, South Africa, was swimming on the Natal south coast in mixed company, includ- ing several'pretty• young worn. en, . who played at diving- and grabbing, each other's ankles to pull one, another under. Pieter felt. a soft,. tender hand grip his ankle and tumble him over. Playfully' he 'grabbed for. the pretty girl -- and carneup with a good-sized Octupus.

Is it proper for one to use the spoon to test the tempera- ture of one's coffee? A; This is quite proper, and is far better than burning the mouth, or perhaps sputtering out the liquid. But after testing it, the spoon should be left in the, saucer and the remainder of the coffee sipped from the cup. Q. When is the double card for man and wife in good use? A. It 'is sent with wedding presents, with flowers to a fun- eral, with gifts to high school or college graduates, or with any other gift that comes from both, It is, of'•course, used also for formal visits. Q. Will you please suggest an appropriate toast that I, as best man ata wedding, can propose at the reception„ . A. Simply "To -the bride and groom" is quite enough, Q. Are you supposed ,to push your chair under the table when leaving the table? ' A. Most authorities suggest that. it is in better taste to leave one's chair where it is when one •rises from the table—unless, of course,, it is obstructing "traf-- tic." -Q, Is it absolutely necessary to send a wedding present when one has declined an invitation to the reception? ' A. This would be expected of you only ,if you were very 'inti- . mate -friends with . the bride, the ' bridegroom, or their • families. Otherwise, it is not necessary. • Q. If a man brings a gift when calling en a girl; should she open it at once, or lay it - aside until he has gone? A. She . would show an ex- treme lack of breeding and man- ners if she laid • it aside. She should open it immediately. Q.' Is It proper for a divorcee, marrying a pian who has never been previously married, to wear a bridal dress and veil? A. This is out of the question for any but a maiden bride. The divorcee may, however, properly wear an all -white dress and hat, and she may have one attendant and a floral decoration of the chancel, Q, . Should a hostess always provide new cards at a bridge party? A, It isn't necessary to furn- ish new cards, but the hostess must be sure.that the cards pro- vided are' immaculate and in good condition. Q. Is it necessary that one bid each person good-bye individu- ally when leaving a group of persona to whom one has just been Introduced? A, No: one cordial "good-bye" can include the entire group, Q, On which arm of her fath- er should a bride proceed down the aisle of a church? A.

A MUST for liquor 'dispensers is total abstinence, if efficiency is the objet. tive, Plane pilots, locomotive engin- eers, 'hockey players, (if they wish tc reach the big time), must curb their personal liberty in this matter. Yes, even the liquor barons, makers of beer, wine and hard liquor, know the facts about indulgence and the resultant loss of efficiency.

Congratulations to Reeve Bailie Par- rott, of Morris Township, who cele - 'anted his birthday on Tuesday, March 1st, Did you ever slop to think that it all the world there Is only one newspaper that Is really concerned with YOU? And that Is your home -town paper, Big city dailies are only inter— ested In YOU when you conunit u crimp, break your neck or do some- thing equally spectacular or foolish, But your home-town'paper is in- terested all through your life. Over the years It tells the story of YOU. The story begins, as good stories should, at the beginning. YOU. are born and In the "birth notices" there is an announcement that your father and mother' have been bles- sed with YOU, Then Dud and Mom go away on a trip and take YOU with thein, So your nume appears in the social and personal column, The years pass and YOU go to school. Every so of- ten your name appears in school re- sults, sometimes at the top of your class, sometimes at the bottom, but always there, YOU are on the hockey team or the bull team as YOU grow older • and your name is mentioned many ' tines, YOU golf, curl, go to sum- mer camp with the reserves, take part in the music festival, act in a play—your name is in the paper, Then conics the great moment of the early part of your life — your high school graduation. YOU cut it out for your grandchildren to see. Then perhaps college and home for holidays; your name appears often. YOU graduate and your home -town paper Is just as proud of you as your parents are, , , YOU come home and go to work in dad's business or start one of your own, YOU meet the' one and only girl and your engagement Is ' announced in the paper. YOU are married and there is a detailed ac- count of your wedding. As the years roll on your home- town paper tells the story of your social life, your cimmunity achieve- ments, the birth of your children, the honors that •omc to YOU. Finally nt the end of your long and happy life YOU appear in the "obituary column," Thus YOU and your home -town paper are closely connected, With- out YOU there would be no com- munity newspaper. Without your community newspaper there would be no published story of YOU, All through your life your paper records your dolit,gs--the happy oc- casions in your life, your' sorrow- ful ones, your achievements.

ME FARM. FRONT A recent issue of , the Farm Journal (Philadelphia) carried the story of an exciting new dairy product that promises' to help solve the ever -vexatious problem of .surplus milk and give, more dairy farmers a big- ger milk check. Sounds good, anyway, so here is 'the dope. • • -• It's a frozen, concentrated, whole milk perfected by 'Iowa State . College scientists after several years of research, In the trade, it will be known . as a 3 -to -1 milk—one . part frozen concentrate to two parts water to get table milk. During. tests in our ."Farm Journal , kitchen, . most • of • ' our finicky tasters couldn't tell it from regular bottle milk. To. some,, it tasted richer. Another thing: this new pro- duct apparently overcomes the flaky appearance and •cooked flavor. that have plagued ,ear- • lier efforts with' frozen, , con- centrated milks.- " The, cans ' we tested, had been frozen at 15-20° below zero for . three months and still tasted fine. I • * There are other good points aboutthe• new product. Thawed out and used straight, it whips just like cream, It makes good coffee cream,. when' mixed with equal' parts of water, So actu- ally, it's three products in one can. . Several cans 'stored in the freezer would make a handy milk and cream reservewhen visitors drop in. At 15-20 de- grees below zero, it should keep well for four to six months, Then another two weeks at zerq;. as in your home freezer, and two weeks more 'in a regu- lar home refrigerator.' The Iowa State College folks have no commercial plans for the product. "It's as free as the air to anyone who wants to put it to commercial use," says Dr. C. A. Iverson, head of the Iowa State dairy .industry depart- ment. • • • Will anyone make it? And will it sell as well or better than regular milk if it is put on the market? Those are the big questions at the moment. Some folks in the dairyin- dustry have guessed that a frozen, concentrated milk might pull the dairy business out of the hole—like frozen orange juice did for the citrus indus- try. But 'there are big differences between the two foods, For one thing, the homemaker saves a lot of work when she buys frozen .orange juice instead of squeezing out fresh oranges. And the . industry saves ship- ping costs on waste parts — therinds, seeds, and pulps, • • • But with milk, the frozen concentrate would actually be more work for the housewife than tb'''use fresh milk. And there aren't the long hauling distances that . you have .witlf Oranges, • • • Bo the big IT in the future of frozen concentrated milk is price. Those who've had ex- perience, think it might move in volume, if it can be produced to sell for at least three cents less per quart than regular bot- tle milk (although some people, would 'buy it anyway for its saving of refrigerator space and its long keeping qualities).. At present, most dairy plant men don't see a way to make a three -cent saving. We've had a lot of experience with "new" milks—both con- centrated and dried. And some frozen, too. • • • • Otte of the earlier ones was a fresh, unfrozen concentrate. In tests at' Wilmington, Del,, it was priced at a cent less than homogenized vitamin D milk and sold both in stores and at doorsteps; It didn't move. People didn't like the trouble of re- constituting it with water. Seemed they;d rather pay More, and get the extra convenience of bottled milk. • • • There's a • brighter side, though. The Supplee-Wills- Jones Milk Company of Phila- delphia, who ran the Wilming- ton tests, didn't throw that ear- lier concentrate formula away. They're still freezing and selling it to shipping lines and industrial plants overseas. One account takes about 30,000 -one- third -quart paper' containers of It per month, That's one mar- ket that probably could be de- veloped further. And it could move into areas of short sup- ply in this country, * • • It might even go over today, in some parts of the country, if given a chance, Right now, fresh concentrated milk (not frozen) is going well in several areas of the Midwest and on the West Coast, . Before coming out with ' their frozen concentrate, Drs. W. J. Caulfield, W. S. Rosenzerger, and R. W. Baughman of ' Iowa State C o 11 e g e developed a fresh, unfrozen concentrate that is similar, They started selling ' it to a route man who delivers it to farmers right around Ames,. These customers soon made it', clear that they'd ' rather buy concentrated milk than keep a How A Small -Town Bookseller Wages War Against High Taxes By ROSETTE HARGROVE NEA Staff 'Correspondent Paris—(NEA) - Ten, thousand little shopkeepers and artisans answered his call to arms at a. mass Paris rally. . He is the first and only man — outside of the Communists_, who. has:been able to. call for a, "peaceful insurrection":in 30,000 French° parishes, He is 34 -year-old Pierre Pou- jade, a. once obscure bookseller whose rebellion against the French . tax ' system, has made him. the hero and leader of 300,- 000 little businessmen. Until 18 months ago, Poujade's life centered around. his' book- shop in St. Cere,' a town of 8000;. ,his wife and four children, and his membership on the municip.- al'council. Then he got a notice from the tax comptroller . that , his bookkeeping would be sub- ject to fiscal control. Fifty other shopkeepers in the town ' got notices, too, Pou- jade, whose "gift of gab" is well' recognized in St. Cere, persuad- ed them to fight back,. When the comptrollers turned up they met with.such hostility that they 'abandoned their 'Mission, That was the spark that. set off the little businessmen of France in an organized resist- ance against what oujade . calls the "Inquisitorial methods of tax collectors, the traps they set for their victims, and their brutal treatment," Since then, the Poujade Move- , ment has become the Union of Defense of Shopkeepers and Artisans with 300,000 members ' out of an 'estimated 800,000 small businessmen, There ' have been • 500 protest meetings, and a $1,500 war chest has been col lected, "We are not revolutionaries," Poujade's followers declare. But Poujade himself warnst "The revolution' will . be'.. automatic 'government and. ,parliament re- main deaf to our warnings: I am' your spokesman in the strug- gle against tax Injustices impos- ed on the little people. The gov- ernment persecutes us. But at the same time 'it extends preferential treatment to big business." His crusade' keeps .Poujade rushing all ovbr France for rel lies, He rests :one Sunday out of two, often ,gets along on' as lit- tle as four , hours ' of sleep. What Poujade 'and his follow- ers seek- in the way of reform adds up to' these major points: Taxation for the little ' shop- keeper on the same basis as 'big business, which can write , off such items as capital invest- ments, directors' and managers' salaries,' and reserve funds. Taxation computed on net' .profits to. eliminate paperwork that makes a shopkeeper a , state accountant, ' Abolition of fines that are out of proportion .to the errors made. Abolition . of fiscal control in any form., cow or two on the farm. Ths route now serves several hun- dred families, This suggests that rural customers who art too scattered to make bottled routes pay, might well be an especially good market for tht new frozen concentrates. Safeway Stores, one of the biggest chains, is marketing the fresh concentrate in San Fran- cisco to the tune of about one. fifth of their total milk sales. So, with fresh concentrate picking up sales in these areas, maybe the doors will swing even wider for the frozen milk, If they do, it could keep a lot of surpluses out of government storehouses. HowCanl? By ROBERTA LEE Q. How can I clean an oil painting? A. Wash the surface gently .with clean, warm water, using a soft cloth, After it is thoroughly dry, moisten a soft flannel in pure olive oil and rub over the surface gently. Another method is to rub gently with the freshly cut half of a potato, cutting oft' a slice from time to time as it becomes dirty. Q. How can I destroy germs on the telephone? A, The mouthpiece of the tel- ephone should be washed every few days with a mild disinfec- tant, It will destroy the germs and halitosis, Q. Hoy can I remove black shoe polish stains? A. Use soap and water, or tur- pentine, For tan polish, use al- cohol, Vinegar will remove shoe polish from clothing. Q. How can I.sweeten a sour stomach? • A. To sweeten the sour stom- ach, and to take away indiges- tion, place a half teaspoon of baking soda on the tongue, then wash down with a drink of cold water, Q. How _ can I bring . out the lights in blonde hair without in- juring the hair? A. Place as much borax, as can be held on a quarter of a dollar coin, add to a gallon of water, and use as a rinse, Q. How can I be sure that I am selecting a good comb? A. When purchasing a comb always select one with blunt teeth, A comb• with sharp teeth .breaks and tears the hair. Q. How can I clean leather? A. Add. a little vinegar to warm water (not hot) and brush it over the leather with a clean cloth and wipe -dry; remove grease stains with benzine or pure turpentine, Q: How can I keep food from sticking to the sides 'of the cass- erole? A. Butter the inside of the .casserole before putting the food in to bake. The contents will not bake to the side of the dish ae when not buttered, nor will it be so difficult to clean after- wards. Equal rights in regard to So- cial Security benefits, family al- lowances and old -age pensions, In their , rebellion, Poujade's followers are rejecting the tax comptrollers' arbitrary assess- ments; When the comptroller threatens a shopkeeper with.con- trol, he arrives to find the shut- ters, down' and a sign on the door: "Closed Because of StrIke." Some 'collectors have called in the militia.. But when a shop- keeper is backed to the. ,wall,. Poujade's battle order calls for a closed "distress sale" at which other followers buy the goods at the lowest possible price, then hand them back ' to the original owner, Poujade has been called a Communist and a fascist, blit he brushes off such names with an expressive. shrug: "We all belong to the same party," he says, "It's the party of Frenchmen , who pay and pay and are doomed to die because of the absurd tax system." PIERRE POUJADE' (left) LEADS A RALLY: "The revolution `will be automatic if the government remains deaf ..." .. PLAIN HORSE SENSE.. By F. (BOC) VON PILUS With mounting pressure be- hind the demand of our farm organizations f o r government guaranteed minimum prices of farm products, the question is being asked: "I-Iow would you do it?" Nobody will deny that farmers have a right to their fair share of the national income. Yet they labour under so many handicaps that hey' cannot achieve this without govern- ment intervention, In c e r t a i n commodities farmers can du the job them- selves if they are given the nec- essary legislation to establish national marketing agencies. In others the federal government may have to take direct action, Scarcity or Abundance? Whenever the federal govern- ment has intervened in the pric- ing of farm products so far, it was generally in the form of an offer to buy from the processors or distributors a given com- modity at a set price. In the case of eggs for In- stance the government is pre- pared to buy eggs at 38 cents per dozen Grade A Large plus storage and handling charges. The government will deal with the grading stations, but no pro- vision is made for a minimum price to the producer except a vague form of a "gentlemen's agreement" that the producer would not receive less than 32 cents per dozen. If the government establishes minimum prices at the producer level to be paid by processors and distributors and to be car- ried forward into the retail mar- ket, the result will be that not only marketing but also produc- tion will have to be controlled and in all probability curbed to avoid the accumulation of huge surpluses which eventually would wreck the program. This would mean a policy of planned scarity in a world in which the majority of people have never seen a square meal and go to bed hungry every night of the year, It would also mean that the consumer would have to pay:,the- higher price in the store' and may be called upon to pay again, through his tax bill, if the government has to dispose of any "surpluses" at a loss, A New Approach We submit to 'our readers for their consideration 'and for dis- cussion in their farm meetings the following alternative. Farmers shall be free to pro- duce any product and as much of it as they want, and sell it .in an uncontrolled market where it- would find its price level under the good old law of supply and demand so highly "There's very little chance of you going wrong."

Did His Book - Keeping On A Cedar Shingle There were a number of dif- ferent ways in which a country merchant could keep his ac- counts in the days before cash registers, adding machines, loose-Ieaf binders, visible files, or the early ticket register sys- tem, He could tally up the chalk scores on the wall, possibly the simplest system of all, He could run up a column of figures on a shingle, the ancestor of the visible file. He might calculate by pictograph, like ' the New Hampshire Yankee who got con- fused about whether the cus- tomer owed him for• a cheese or a grindstone because at the time the transaction was re- corded, he forgot todraw a hole for the crank of the grindstone. But -whether it was by single entry or double, by notched sticks, or by a stub pencil and scrap of paper fished from a vest pocket, the storekeeper could not escape the burden of keeping accounts of some kind; and the only good ones were those the merchant himself could understand. James L. Bragg used to run a general store with a lumber yard in back of it. One day a farmer wanted some cedar shingles. The quantity Bragg had on hand, as it turned out, was just what the customer wanted, "I'll take them all," he said. But Bragg held back on the last bundle. "I . couldn't sell that," he ex- plained. "It's got my store ac- counts on it," The country trader , usually kept his accounts in great folios, full-sized sheets of heavy, white "wove" paper, folded once by the stationer to make four. pages, bound in rough sheep, or in brown leather scarred by long, handling. Until steel pens were intro- duced, the merchant had to be skilled in the cutting, slitting, and pointing of goose quills. He had his round pounce box with a•' perforated top, containing ground puthice, for preparing rough paper to take the ink, or for writing over erasures, His high slant -top desk was equip- ped with sand for blotting, his penknife at hand for shaping the quill pens, Perhaps he had his own recipe for making ink. Many were handed down for generations. — From "The Old Country Store," by Gerald Car- son. 10. Besides 11, Ruff 32. Dances 84. Narrow 18. Country opening 20, Printing fluid 36. I,oggutne 21.

Pittman spent three bitter- ly cold days in the wilderness after he bailed out of B-47 Strat- ojet bomber that exploded in the air.

His Bad Spelling Hanged This Man • You would think that being unable to spell is a small thing to cost; a man his lib"arty and perhaps his life — but it has done so. In 1937 two men were sent- enced to imprisonment in Scot- land because they could not spell "dentifrice." They admit- ted that they had attempted to obtain goods by fraud, One day an Edinburgh trader received an order for goods which included dentifrice. He noticed that the. word fos spelt "dentiface." Now this man had been previously employed by another Edinburgh firm which had been defrauded of goods including dentifrice. The trader remembered that on that occasion the word had also been spelt "dentiface." So, he detained the man who had brought the order and sent for the police. During the Presidential cam- paign in the U,S.A. in 1880 Mr, Garfield was one of the candi- dates, Somebody tried to harm his chances by attributing to him a letter in which the im- portation of cheap Chinese la- bour was advocated. But . the • letter contained words like "ecomony" and• •"religeously," which General Garfield, what- ever his faults, could not have perpetrated. • But the man who really owed his destruction to bad spelling was the chauffeur, Allaway, who was executed for the murder of Irene Wilkins, whom he ' had lured to Bournemouth; by a de- coy telegram and had strangled in a field. She was not the first girl to be ,'decoyed by him; he had sent telegrams to at least two other 'girls on other occa- sions. s But ,all the' telegrams • showed such errors as "iff" for if,. and "plesant" for pleasant. He was hanged in 1922. • i Poisoned Arrows Kill Elephants Far, far from the cities o1 In- dia, in the heavily -wooded coun- try north of the Brahmaptura, the backward Abor tribes have perfected a new 'method of kill- ing marauding rogue elephants. Bows and arrows, their normal weapons of offence, have proved futile. They have perfected no method of trapping elephants, and even breech -loading guns, whose acquaintance they have lately made, are ineffective, So the Abors have made a -stronge and unusual comprom- ise between primitive methods • and machine civilization; they fire poisoned arrows out of their rifles! Recently a rogue elephant was causing depredations among the Padam tribe, a branch of the Abors. Hunting -parties met with no success, several granaries were destroyed, and the posi- tion looked serious. Suddenly there came news that the ele- phant had been killed by a tiny old man with a rifle — and, in- evitably, a poisoned dart. The little man, Ogen Tayeng, had prepares carefully against such an eventuality. He had fa- shioned his arrow in, the tradi- tional manner of .the tribe, and prepared his poison from the roots of a plant known as Em, which had originally been brought by an ancient tribal hero "from the fields of the gods of the snowy mountains." In the sacred corner of the village. he ground and Pounded the roots, then mixed the results with the - juice of another plant, Talo, the "holy creeper," which had al- legedly grown from the haver- sack ofanother tribal hero, Kari, after his death. Little Tayeng met his ele- phant late that afternoon. He suddenly found the' animal standing in his very path, look- ing at him in no friendly man- ner. Almost before he had time to appreciate the situation, the elephant roared and charged him, Tayeng ran away, but the elephant was'faster than he, and he sensed that it was gaining. In a despot ate attempt' to save himself, he shot . at it, from • point-blank range, At once the. elephant ' crumpled, but Tayeng was not disposed to wait and see what.haa happened; he went on running. When he heard no more noise, he retro' ed his steps, and found — a dead ele- phant, QUICK COMEBACK The guest speaker was -an hour late and the college audi- ence was growing restless. The chairman, hoping to salvage the evening, whispered to Professor Ellsworth, famed for his wit, to get up and say a few words. The professor stepped up to the platform, and, by way : of breaking . the ice he remarked, •"I've just been asked by the chairman to come up here and - say something funny" At this point, • a student heck- ler In the back of the hall called out, "You'll tell us. when you say .it, won't you?" Professor Ellsworth, deadpan • but deadly, • riposted, "I'll tell you. The others will know." .:�1r► PO, 4r RON ICLES %INGERFARM '`' 4nolteta.v e Who says we don't get old- fashioned winters any more? If by that we mean cold then last week was old-fashioned enough for most of us. And much colder here than in Toronto. Friday night when it was four' above In Toronto it was fourteen be- low right here. However, it wasn't so hard to heat the house as it had been the week before with the wind blowing. But is the coal -bin ever look- ing sick — and we thought we had more than enough coal to last out the winter, Away goes another fifty dollars. But we still count our blessings . , . we are not snowed in and there hasn't been one morning that the car refused to start. Nor have we had any plants or plumbing frozen. The hens ob- jected to the cold weather but the cows didn't mind it at all. One morning when it was twelve below Partner thought he hadn't better turn the cows out at all. So he carried water to thein in the stable, Some of them just sniffed at the water and bawled to be let out. Next morning it was up to . zero so out they went. When I went out for the mail the cows were all around the water -trough. When I came back they were racing around in the front field, A little- gate which Partner had forgotten to close was their in- vitation to freedom. That was something new for Partner — forgetting to close a gate, Any- way I went down to the barn to tell him what was happen- ing and together we managed to get the cows in before they had a chance to wander too far away, But chasing cows over snow-covered fields wasn't ex- actly our idea of winter sport. Another problem last week was socks - oversocks, to wear inside rubber boots. A few weeks ago I brought home heavy nylon socks for Partner, guaranteed to last without darning for ninety days. Wonderful! I was just thinking of putting my darning things ' for the winter when Partner said—"I can't wear these socks —they don't absorb moisture at all. They must surely be hard on the feet." So I brought home more socks — one pair plain knit, the other in a double check pattern. The check socks had no give to them at all and were hard to get on and off; the others looked as if they would be in holes inside of a week. "Look," I said to Part- ner, "I'll soon knit you a -pair. if you will wear them—but you have always said you couldn't stand hand -knitted socks." (Partner has the kind of feet that could make a chiropodist rich.) However, he evidently thought -I was offering him the lesser of two evils in the way of socks so I was given permis- sion to go ahead. What I did was to knit. new feet — with double heels — on to old legs. In that way I had a pair of socks ready the next day. Since then—no complaints! Socks done I started knitting a little suit for Dave, The pan- iies are made in two pieces, shaped at the back.' A few min- utes ago I found I had made them so the seams didn't snatch. That always helps! Maybe ' it is because I read u I knit, oe perhaps it :was the result of knitting at midnight Not that t wanted to but one night the wind got around to the south and the kitchen fire gimp would not draw, I couldn't leave itbecause of the danger of coal -gas and I couldn't let it go out because it was still ten below. So I sat up and coaxed the fire along until it was safe to leave it. The furn- ace was burning all right but it doesn't heat the back of the house. Yesterday Bob and Joy, came up %to see how we had put in the week. They brought some friends along with them two little boys—two and three and a half. The boys had never been on a farm before and to them the cows were reindeer, and the calves baby reindeer. Shades of Christmas! They wanted to catch some of the hens and could not understand why they would not stand still to be pet- ted. The mother came from Vancouver and had never set foot on a farm either. Her hus- band has lived between Acton and Erin so he knew something about the country. Funny thing, to live in a farming country and know nothing about farming, Whereas we who live on s farm sometimes know too much — if you know what I mean. Joy took her friends all over the house. Such exclamations "So many rooms—and the size of them!" I nodded. "Yes, that's what I say too!" I ans- wered, but with rather a dif- ferent meaning. Of course I would hate to be cooped up in small rooms—but .fewer rooms, that's something else again, A small house these days isn't like a small house twenty years ago. With a basement eight feet high under the whole house one can do with fewer rooms, Stor- age space in the basement and plenty of cupboard room up- stairs. What more could anyone want? I wonder ... cleaning up my desk this morning I came across this hastily scribbled bit of wis- dom—but I don't know where the quotation comes from. Here it is. "Many of us might come closer to having what we want if weknew what we wanted. So very often we soon tire of what we thought we wanted." And who can deny the truth of that statement?
