The inventor of what is prob. ably the most simple diet in the world, this physician sought a way of making things even eas- ier for his lazycharges. What he wanted was a "memory peg" for his new system. Actually, it teas one of his patients who was (note the past tense) fat every- where except in the head, who finally turned the trick for him. • Before we go into this mys- terious sentence, however, let's talk about the diet itself. The sentence merely makes it easier to remember the 22 foods that are the basis of it. In most of our efforts at self - Improvement we are doggedly advised to take a positive view of things—to "latch on to the affirmative." Not so with this diet, The accent here is on the negative. First of all, says the doctor, throw out all those tons of spec- ial menus so painstakingly work- ed out and so painfully followed (or not followed). The whole business of counting calories, the most inexact form of computa- tion known to man, can be dis- carded. Diet fads can be return- ed to their originators unopened. The basic point is this: it's not what you eat that determines your weight—it's what you don't eat. After years of careful experi- mentation, the physician has worked out a list of 22 "off. limits" food items, Refrain from eating these things for the dura- tion of the "diet and you can lose as much weight as you wish with absolute certainty and safety. You can forget all about menus and calories. And, most import- ant of all, you can eat all you want of any or all of the re- maining 228 foods most com- mon in this country. Naturally this "22 -Skidoo (or "forbidden foods") Diet" is go- ing to include items you like. But if you're going on a diet, you have to eliminate something. So you eliminate those foods without which you virtually could not gain weight even if you tried and, for the rest, for- get about rules and regulations and eat what, when, where and how you like. Now for the List. Remember these items, resist them for a month, and you'll, lose from 15 to 20 pounds. If that isn't enough, • extend the period of diet as long as you wish. There is no time limit as far as health is con- cerned. The 22 foods, listed in a spec- ial sequence that will be ex- plained later, are: Gravy Candy Ice Cream • Cereals Rice ' Chocolate Oil Crackers Jellies & Tams Cream Soups (thick) Custard Spaghetti Bread Sugar Butter Noodles Pastries Nuts Potatoes Cake Pudding If you like your coffee with cream and sugar, switch to milk and saccharine—or try it black for a change. If spaghetti is one of your favorite dishes, or pota- toes, or bread and butter, just remember that you can survive very nicely on, those 228 re- maining foods, so eat as much of them as you like. And again, in the . case of desserts, since most of the rich ones are on the "verboten" list, console yourself with the ,fact that you needn't be hungry at the end of the meal. If you must have a paci- fier, take something like fruit or any other desert not on the for- bidden list, —From "Pageant." . v ) TABLE ;'TA8LETALKS t.►!( &am Andrews.

(BOB) VON PILLS FarmQrs who are looking to- wards the federal government for assistance in their present precarious situation of declining prices and vanishing markets, will be disillusidned when they read the speech of the Prime Minister made in the House of Commons on Jan. 10th, There had been hope that the federal government would pro- mote, trade with Britain or per- haps •even enter into trade agreements with the British government to dispose of some of farm surpluses, if surpluses there are, However, on January 10th the Prime Minister stated quite clearly that he had no such in- tentions when he said: "We do our best to facilitate external trade, but we do not attempt to handle external trade through any government organization, with the exception of the wheat board, set up at the request of the wheat producers themselves and managed for their benefit and to a large degree under their direction." Pressure Needed This leaves farmers two alter- natives, providing we do , not consider the third one of letting things' slide, First, they can try and put all possible pressure on the government to • establish marketing boards, equivalent to the wheat board, for other com- modities like livestock or dairy products. With a federal election at least •two years away, the gov- ernment will not be very sen- sitive to pressure; unless, of course, Farmers Union and Fed- eration of Agriculture 'exert themselves in an organizational, drive to swamp Ottawa • with letters and telegrams from their respective members, demanding action, Failingsuch a cooperative ac- tin on a grand scale, there is the alternative of bargaining for federal legislation enabling far- mers to establish their own mar keting 'agencies' and to try, to do the • job themselves. Payment In Sterling In • either case `trade with Bri- tain , will, have to be carried On on •Elie basis of Pounds Sterling and, not of dollars which -the British do not have in sufficient amounts' to spend on Canadian farm products, There is no reason though why we should insist on pay- ment in dollars. We would need dollars only if we wanted to buy from the United States, But if it is a question of getting rid of some cumbersome quantities of butter and cheese and bacon, we will have to accomodate ourselves to the idea of buying British manufactured goods - in- stead of American. The British want our - goods, bud, we will have to accept theirs in ex- change, In the same speech the Prime Minister said: "There has been no loss of the United Kingdom market, There is no less desire in the United Kingdom to take goods from Canada than there was at any time, but it has so happened that there is still a shortage of dollars that limits the quantities of Canadian goods they can import and for which they could provide the currency required;" "The currency required" hap- pens to be Canadian dollars which are not available. The currency available is Pound Sterling. Why not take the Pound Sterling and buy British tree- tors raytors instead of American trac- tors, or buy anything in Britain which presently is being Import- ed from the United States? Somebody will have to do it . and go after the government and the farm organizations.

How and when should it be applied? These are ques- tions that farmers will soon be asking themselves, their agri- cultural representatives, their experimental stations and agri- cultural colleges, • • • This year, as always, the word "nitrogen' will figure prominently in the answers, but this is the first season that Canadian farmers will be able to test an adaptable new man- made form of this important growth element. • • • It has just been made avail- able in this country and con- tains 45 per cont urea nitrogen, and is a highly concentrated product• that saves on haulage and handling. Formed into free-flowing pellets resembling buckshot, it can be handled in virtually all types of ' equip- ment and does not. create any. annoying dust, It can be ap- plied as a side or top dressing, or, since it is readily soluble in water, it can also be used in irrigation water and as a fol- - lege spray. The new preparation is re- commended primarily as a sup- plement to other fertilizer elements, so as to ensure main- tenance of a productive nitro- gen balance. , • • • • Certain crops, especially leafy ones, require large amounts of nitrogen to produce top yields of high quality, and even when planted in rich soil frequently need a supplemental supply during the growing season. This is where the new com- pound is particularly effective, for it remains in the soil until the plant makes use of it, • • • , • . • It doesn't become fixed in the first few inches of soil, either. Following application, water carries the. urea fertilizer down to the root zone 'where it -con- verts• : rapidly to ammonium nitrogen; is: anchored to soil partieW,and: so "resists further leactiiiig. It. also promotes rapid decoy' :of :.forganic' matter, :im- proving soil structure yet leav- ing no harmful residue. As a foliage spray, it, goes to work immediately, Leaves ab- sorb it quickly with no 'waste or excess feeding. Thus crops get the nitrogen when they need it, even when the roots are too dry, cold or wet to get nitrogen from the soil, The urea fertilizer may be combined with regular pesticide sprays, thereby reducing the cost of application. Experiment station tests and field trials show that five pounds of the compound in -100 'gallons of spray is effective with strawberries, pears, cher- ries and grapes, while 10 pounds in 100 gallons is suc- . cessful with plums, prunes and peaches, The spray treatment has also been used with' bene- ficial results on potatoes, to- ' matoes, cucumbers and car- rots, Other recommended applica- tions for various crops include top dressing for. apples and pears, u§ing up to four lbs. per tree, 'applied at least six weeks be- fore bloom, For small grains, use 40 to 220 pounds an acre, top -dressed when plants are about three inches high. For winter wheat, broadcast' in fall or early spring using, air or ground equipment. With pas- ture and hay crops, use 80 to 180 pounds an acre, top -dressed in fall, winter or early spring.

Stomach worms, nodu- lar worms, hookworms and lungworms are the most com- mon. Attaching themselves to a portion of the digestive tract, they live wholly at the expense of the animal host. • • ' • In beef cattle, such parasites can account for sizable losses to the livestock, raiser. They cause decreased rates of gain, retard growth and lower resistance to' otherdisease conditions. If'" present in • sufficient numbers, they may even result in the death of the animal. • « « Occasionally the effects may pass unnoticed for some time. An animal with a light infes- tation rarely exhibits outward symptoms, yet will not be able to utilize feed to the fullest ad- , vantage. This results in a higher cost of gain. A heavily parasitized animal, on the"other hand, usually shows definite symptoms such as swelling un- der the jaw (bottle jaw), loss in weight, anemia, weakness, paleness ..of mucous membranes and diarrhea, Typfdal life cycles of " most cattle parasites are similar to that' of the stomach worm which follows a. course of de- velopment providing for con- tinual reinfection from con= laminated pastureland.

Autograph Hunters One of the • most valuable autograph novelties' • in. the world belongs, to a New 'York musician who has a violin on the back of which are inscribed 120 famous ' self -written names of celebrities, including Ein- stein and the . late President Roosevelt: He values his fiddle at $10,000' and says: "I'll have to be pretty broke before I sell it." A • certain autograph hunter, hearing . that Rudyard Kipling never accepted less than 2s: 6d, a,,word for anything he wrote, sent him an autograph •book and a cheque for five shilliIlgs hoping by this manoeuvre to secure the two magic.. words "Rudyard Kipling" for his col- lection, Kipling kept the ,money and wrote two words in the book -- not "Rudyard Kipling' but "Thank you." A London autograph collector spent eleven years collecting the signatures of 3,000 authors, statesmen, artists, musicians and other celebrities. One Ruto- graph "he specially longed • for was that of • Paderewski; the world-famous pianist, so ' event- ually he wrote asking for it. • Paderewski replied:• "I have refused 24,000 applications for my autograph, but for some reason •I see fit to oblige you, So here it is.", '• Sometimes, an. application for a great min's signature leads to' a' surprising reply, like the one sent • by General W, T. Sherman, one ,,of .the heroes of the: American Civil' War, He . wrote: "The . man who has en 'w1'iting . my .autographs lis been discharged, so I regret ,.cannot comply with your re- ,tiuest.' ; ' NDAI'SQIOOL LESSON Prayer in the Christian's Life Matthew 6:5-8; 7:741 Janes 5:13-16 Memory Selection: This is the confidence that we have in him, that, if, we ask anything accord- ing to ,his will, he heareth us. 1 John 5:14, Prayer Is as necessary to the spiritual life of a Christian as food is to the 'body. Jesus spent much time in prayer. If he thus needed to commune with God the Father, how much more do we? Jesus warped against praying• to be seen' of men and said, "Enter into thy closet, and when thou hest shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in sec- ret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee open- ly. It isn't easy to find a place and, time to be undisturbed be- fore God. One must get away from the telephone or find a time when it is less likely to ring, Shutting the door implies the effort of the will against wandering ,thoughts, We must close in with God, The Bible gives many direc- tives concerning prayer, James says, "Ye have not, because ye ask not, Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, • that ye may consume it upon your lusts," 4:2-3, - The final passage in this les- son refers to prayer for the sick. This is .being practised by Christendommore widely today than for many years. No doubt • there are sometimes abuses at- tending the practiee. .On the other hand many are,helped. At this point I must give my testi- mony, • In April, 1950, 1 was stricken with what a noted spe- cialist • said was .'rheumatoid .arthritis.',I learned something of • suffering. People of different denominations were ,praying for me. In August I asked' the eld- ers. to anolut me and pray for. me. Actually •I' noticed , no im- provement . but I had an, inner satisfaction of having . carried_ out the '.Biblical instruction, I hftd' openly committed my _case' 'to God. I had been encouraged by various portions ' of the Psalms, On December 2, after retiring, I was reading Psalm 103. I • saw my opportunity of claiming the Lord as, my Healer. I trusted Him ,there. Pain did not cease but improvement be- gan. Seven weeks later I was skating with ease, I thank God for his mercy. At the same time I have great compassion for those to whom God says as to Paul, "My grae is sufficient for thee." 2 Corinthians 12:9, He didn't remove the thorn, but promised grace sufficient, Crime Makes Fashion Even before Sherlock Holmes crime and • fashion have been linked together -on both sides of the law. At least 'two mur- ders have had an effect on fa- shion, Mueller, 'a German visitor to this country in the last century, killed an old man in a railway carriage for the sake of his watch, He • also took his vic- tim's hat which he cut down and adapted for his own use, For a time there was a vogue in men's low -crowned head- gear known as "the Mueller cut-down," Incidentally, it is said to be due to Mueller's crime that communication cords were introduced to the 'rail- ways, Another fashion in hats in America owed its origin to the plug uglies-hefty gentlemen who used to fight with hob- nailed boots and brick -bats. To protect their heads" they wore hard felt hats, the crown of which were stuffed with straw and pulled well down over their ears. The plug ugly gave his name to posterity as a tough. The New York police owed one of their early nicknames to headwear. The leather hel- mets with which they were once equipped earned them the nick- name of "Leatherheads." Maria Banning had the oppo- site effect to Mueller upon fashion. When she was con- demned for aiding her husband to murder her lover O'Connor, in 1849, she elected to meet Calcraft, the executioner, in s fashionable black satin gown. Black satin gowns .immediately went out of fashion.. It is said that when the exe- cution cart was "driven off, someone commented, "There goes Black Maria." And the name has stuck to police vehi- cles ever since. Even the detectives had their, fashions. When Vidocq, the master criminal, saw the error of his ways he was employed by the French Government as a detective on the principle: "Set a thief to catclt a thief." He employed many of his old con- federates in a flourishing police department.

So she appeals to father, unbeknown to the children — to destroy the poor little' creature. But father is too chicken-hearted to give it a merciful death, and he hasn't the sense to take it to 'the Hu- mane Society. Instead, some Sunday while the children ,are at Sunday School, he goes for a drive in the country; stops the car near a farmhouse or a coun- try home, drops the unwanted cat or puppy on the side of the road and drives off with never a backward glance, Quite a manly fellow, isn't he? The poor deserted little crea- ture crouches for awhile in the ditch, but eventually moves away, wandering from house to house, or hiding in farm 'build. ings, hungry, lonely and fright- ened, an easy prey to unfriend- ly dogs, When found nobody really wants it --- most pQople in the country have a cat or dog of their, own, If a child finds it, the little animal is lucky. Then someone out of pity feeds • the "stray" -- 'and then it is theirs to keep, We have one such cat at the barn right now. We' think there is something ab- normal about it, as all it does is drink milk and sleep. Partner never sees it watching for mice as the other cats . do. And I never saw anything as hungry as that cat when it first came in off the road, Dogs or puppies,' we are not bothered with at all, • Thank you, Mrs. I'...,, for your nice letter. After reading of your experience with 60 cy- cle conversion I feel that our little set-to was as nothing in comparison. Imagine your being left out altogether. That is real- ly one for the' book! However, I suppose with such a tremen- dous undertaking we must ex- pect mistakes and faulty work- manship occasionally, That, I pretume, we must overlook. What I do object to is the prac- tise of the Hydro Commission of sending these men out on a conversion late at night. A wo- man alone in an out-of-the-way farm house might be frightened to death to have someone come rapping at the door. How is she to know it is only one of the Hydro men? She cannot know who it is unless she opens the door — and that she may be afraid to do. If the superinten- dent in charge of the job in- tends sending men late at night then the occupants of the house should be notified in advance,. This same correspondent de- plores the fact that so many peo- ple think dropping a dog or cat off on the highway: is a good way of getting rid of it, She has reason to object as one of each has come to her home this win- ter. She •wishes I would say something about- It. Believe me, Mrs. F... ,, I could say plenty. To me that is a callous and' des- picable trick. And yet, strange- ly enough, I don't beleive these pet -droppers have,any intention of being unkind, or would abuse an animal in their own home. They just think by this method the little creature will find a new home, knowing full well, that few country people can re- • list giving shelter to the lost and friendless, Some of these abandoned pets are the result of parents having given in when • children have begged for a cat or a dog of their own.

They know where they belong, they don't expect to be fed or rotted, and eventually they go luck home, Mothers, will you please think twice before you consent to let John or Mary have a cute little puppy or kitten of their own? Nothing could be more desirable for your wee son or daughter — children should have pets — but a pet needs food, training and kindness. It will look to you for protection. If you are not prepared to give it the care it requires, then don't adopt a pet in the first place. If, in all good faith, you do allow Johnny or Mary to have a kitten or a pup, and then unforseen circumstances arise which makes it• impossible for you to keep it, do remember the Humane Society or your, local 'vet' is ready to help you in just such an emergency. We, as hu- mans, were created higher than the animals. Don't let us betray that trust by dropping helpless little creatures off on the road, leaving them to 'an uncertain' fate. And now , , . oh, for goodness' sake! While :I have been hold- ing forth on kindness to' ani- mals, here's our cat—our Mit- chie-White—has got himself all tangled up with my. knitting wool. "Mitchie—drop it—if you don't leave that wool I'll . so help me, I'll drop you off on the side of the' road!" What a threat , . , I could no more do it than take my own life. Quaker Humor: Even Quakers can be crochety, and Uncle William, during a long and cantankerous lifetime, had abused the privilege. Now he was being laid to rest, and an atmos- phere of strain pervaded ..the gathering. At last an elderly mourner spoke up: "Well, there's one good thing thee can say about William. He wasn't always as mean as he was sometimes.' * * * Asked why she had never mar- ried, a Quaker spinster explain- ed: "It takes a mighty good hus- band to be better than none," * * * A wealthy landowner, passing by a fine-looking farm, was startled to see a sign on it: "I will give this land to anyone who is truly -content." Recov- ering from his surprise, he thought, "Well, I have every- thing I need, so 1 ought to be well qualified. I think I'll apply." Accordingly, he knocked on the door of the owner of the tract, , an elderly Quaker, and explained his presence. "And thee, is truly content?" queried the Quaker. , "Indeed I am. There is nothing more that I desire," "In that case, Friend," count-' ered the Quaker, "what does thee want with my. land?" FISH CAUGHT, SWAM 5,000 MILES, CAUGHT AGAIN Just a year ago an official_ Qt the California Fish and Game Commission placed an 'identify- ing tag on a fish, an albacore, which he had caught.

Shooting a perfect 300 at 50 metres, Canada's Gilmour Boa tied with Boris Pereberin of Russia in the fn•st half of the event. Here is where experience told—not just experience in shooting but experience in win- ning, Ilnd chilled -steel nerve as well, While the Russian drop- ped five points at 100 metres, Gil in front of a large gallery of spectators, dropped only two points to finish with a total of 598, two points greater than the previous world record. Gold, silver and bronze medals and badges came the way of this Canadian with the steady hand, the lceen eyes, right through the trophy, Boa's world title win was a climax to a collossal year for Canada in shooting. The Canadian team in the Lord Dewar Match and the Mayleigh Cup Match placed second in both these events, The City of Calgary took top place in the 1954 Empire Cities Match for the second straight year. The ladies of the Calgary Rifle Club, representing the Province of Alberta, were Canada's only entry in this annual competition, The team total of 1,978 was four points higher than the second place team represent- ing the State of Michigan. And not only with the rifles did Canada's marksmen ex- cel. Vern Thornborrow of Hamilton, Ontario, achieved trap- shooting fame by capturing the preliminary handicap event at the Grand American, He is the first Canadian to win this title. He was competing against a field of 1,729 shooters, A national skeet title came to Canada for the -first time, Mr. and Mrs. Bill O'Brien of Montreal outshot all competit- ors at the National Skeet shoot .at Waterford, Michigan, to capture the open "husband -and -wife" skeet crown.
