Safety Problems Discussed nesday afternoon in the school room
By Fireside Farm Forum
of the church. The meeting opened
(Written by Mrs, George Carter) ,
On March 21st. 22 adult members of
the Hullett Township Fireside Fnrm
Forum met at the home of Mr, anti
Mrs. Jin Hbwatt to discuss "Safety no
the Highways."
The following conclusions were
formulated from the discussion;
(a) We consider the main safety
problems are; Too much speed for
driving conditions=Railways —Drunk-
en drivers—too many -irresponsible teen
age drivers — too many older people
who cannot see, hear, think, or react •
as quiclky as necessary—Carelessness
and lack of courtesy of drivers—Care
lessness of school children — Truck:
unloading in front of stores,
(b) Steps that should be 'taken
Drivers manuals should be given witt
each license—Stress the importance of
studying and , oueyhng it — All young
people will learn to -drive often being
taught by careless elders who do not
obey the rules and are just lucky—It
should he the law that they learn from
competent teachers—Eliminate the most
dangerous level crossings and mark all
railway crossings clearly with, stop
signs—Police should be more alert tc
check on faulty drivers and to look
for mechanical defects on cars—Be very
severe • with drunk driver's—Many
roads should be widened • — Drivers
tests should be more severe and should
be held periodically during a lifetime—
More parking lot( are necessary-Nc
double parking should be allowed or
town streets.

In his remarks Mr. McNall reminded
the subscribers that the System war
valued at $200,000, Further expenditure
was planned' for this year with the
cable south of Blyth to be continued
from its present point at the 13th con.
cession of Hullett to Londesboro, and
north of Blyth the cable would be rur
to the 4th concession of East Wawanosh
Total cost of cable and equipment for
this- program was figured at eve;
$15,000,00. The cable In Blyth war
beyond its life expectancy, being 22
years in service, The System must be
?sept in repair; Referring to the cost
of a new switch board he said it would
entail an -expenditure of $11,000 but it
was generaly agreed that ,the present
switch board could be put, in shape for
continued good service, which was con.
sidered advi"sable In view of possible
changes to come in future years wher
a dial system might be forced on the
local System. Sunday service has beer
extended to rural subscribers whc
may have a phone go out of order or.
a Sunday, The lineman will now give
Sunday service in such an emergency
A Bell Telephone Company expert had
surveyed the System as they do once
each year, and according to the!i-
standards, much work was recommend.
ed.
Before closing Mr. McNall spoke of
the resignation of the secretary-treas.
urer, Mr, B. Hall, which becomes ef•
fective the end of March. He said that
Mr. Hall's services had been excellent
and the only dispute had been salary
The Commissioners, he believed, has
hired an excellent successor .in the per••'
son of Mrs, Jean Berthot,
Mr. James Phelan spoke next, and
when Mr. Phelan speaks on local tele•
phone matters, he speaks with 20 years
of experience behind him. One car
almost visualize hint as being person.
ally acquainted with every knot in ev
ery pole, and his continued interest and
serdice has been invaluable to the Sys•
tem, He was sorry for the small at.
tendance, He could remember other
days when the. hall would be packed
and there was fireworks aplenty. Mr
Phelan spoke of collections which he
said were bad from renters who should
try to keep paid up. He spoke of the
commissions received front the , Bell
Company on long distance calls which
amounted to $3,505,07, the receipt o'
which was largely due to the efforts
put forth by the Independent Telephone
Association to which the Blyth Systetr.
subscribes. The local System had beer
up 44 years and had 500 telephones ov-
er 40 years old, Besides the work being
contemplated' north and south of Blyth
the line to Auburn must come in for
consideration in the future. The instal•
latlon of cable would eliminate danger
from storms, and would allow the cut•
ting down on the number of subscrib•
ers on a rural 'line, thus giving better
service, Mr. Phelan said the Commis•
sioners had no intention of raising the
rates. He referred to the passing of t
former secretary -treasurer of the Sys.
tem, the late Leslie Hilborn, who he
said had been largely responsible for
bringing the present office system, !nit
operation,. and who was a stickler' fat
efficiency, He had rendered valuable
service to the System and he felt it win
right to mention him on this occasion
Mr. Hull as his successor, had carried.
on efficiently and he was sorry to sec
him quiL He thanked all for their
co-operation 'and said that the commis.
stoners only tritd to do what the sub-
scribers desired..
' Mr. Archie Young, the newest mem•
ber of the Commission said that it had
been a pleasant experience to work
with his associates during the past year
'The chairman called on Mr. Hall whc
said that he was sorryto leave his post
but that his decision had been based
entirely on to salary dispute. He 'fell
that neither the secretary-t't'easurer, of
the operators, were receiving enough
money,
Mr, Simon Hallahan moved a vote of
appreciation to the operators, and spoke
of Mr. Hall's retirement, but said that
dollars and cents counted. He said
that service was good but spoke of thc
difficulty to get central office on occas.
Ions.
Mr, McNeil went on to explain the
wage set-up at central office, and tit
hours put in by each operator, Mr
Phelan stated that 'any further wage
increase -could only'be done by increas-
ing the cost of the telephones to sub.
scribers,
Returned
Mr, McNall was appointed to contin.
ue in the chair for the election of Com-
missioners which resulted in the re.
turn of the entire Board for another
year.
Mr, George Michie, a Commissioner
on the Brussels System, was present
and spoke briefly, thanking the Blyth
System for help received during last
year's sleet storm.
Mr. McNall replied that the Blyth
System was interested in the welfare
of their neighbour, and felt sure that
if the situation was reversed at some
future time they could count on sim•
alar co-operation from the Brussels
System,
Slow Paper Delivery
From time to time The Standard
hears from out-of-town subscribers whc
with other remarks, speak of the slow
delivery of, their paper.
The most recent of these remarks
comes from Mr, Frank Longman who is
visiting his daughter in Stratford, where
Mrs. Longman is convalescing after an
illness, Mr. Longinan says='!What !t
the reason our paper Is so long coming
This is Saturday and we haven't reedy -
ed it yet," .
Similar situations apparently prevail
in other centres.
We at The Standard office do not
know the reason. The papers are mail-
ed and sent from the local post office
every Thursdby morning regularly, that
we can and have checked on. From
there on they should go directly tc
their destination, In the case of most
deliveries, they should be made or.
Fridays, and a( the latest, Saturday, tc
points in Ontario, •
It could be possible that in busy cen-
tres of distribution newspapers are
pushed aside in favour of first-class
mail and thus delayed in delivery, but
even then we fail to see why papers
to Toronto mailed here on Thursday
morning should not reach their Toron-
to destination before Monday or Tues•
day of the next week. Unfortunately
all we can do is complain about it.

when a colony house caught fire. Mr.
Kennedy had the fire under control
when firemen arrived. Some chtokens
were lost. •
At supper time last- Wednesday, the

Were there really seven days
last week? I am beginning to
wonder, We seem to have lost
a few somewhere. Or is that
what generally happens when
one has company? Wehad visi-
tors for three days and then
when they returned to Toronto
I went with them, intending to
visit Daughter and come back
on the 6:30 train. But I cut
things too fine. A delayed street-
car added to my troubles so 1
missed my train by about two
minutes. The first time I have
done such a thing in years, For-
tunately Daughter's place is only
about 10 minutes ride from the
station so I went back until it
was time to leave for the mid-
night train. I had too much
work waiting at home for me to
stay overnight. However, wait-
ing for the late train allowed •
me more time with Davey who
was quite happy to have an
extra person to play with. Then,
too, I was able to get a full eve-
ning with television, which 1
had, not done before. But I can't
say I am any more sold on it.
Certainly there are programmes
that one naturally enjoys but I.
find the advertising even more
annoying on TV than it is on
the radio. As for good music 1
much prefer the 'radio — and
that goes for newscasts too.
However, I did enjoy a presen-
tation featuring R. L. Stevenson
on the island of Samoa. I sup-
pose eventually we shall suc-
cumb to mass enthusiasm and
get a set of our own but at the
moment neither Partner nor 1
are . too enthusiastic. Books,
papers, ` magazines and the radio
are about all we can handle at
present.
We have a little extra work
right now — looking after two
stck dogs, What ever ails them
I don't know unless it is dis-
temper. They both have coughs
and look pretty miserable. Tippy
hasn't eaten anything for three
days• As for Honey, she would
sat if she were at her last gasp.
Afterwards she acts like a horse
with the heaves. Tippy is eleven
years old and Honey six or seven
to they are rather old for dis-
temper, especially as they were
both inoculated for it as pup-
pies.
Well, 1 guess the Folk School
!or this County is over for an-
ther year and I didn't get to
It at all. That was quite a dis-
tppointment—you may remem-
Der how much I enjoyed it last
rear. However, these days it is
mpossible to fit everything in
hat one would like to do. There
were also two meetings that
Partner would liked to have
;one to and didn't. Socially-
lninded farm folk can be very
busy nowadays. It is never a
problem now to know what to

Stretchable Synthetic Knits Put Elasticity In The Budget
BY EDNA MILES
Sizes are the bane of any housewife's shopping excursion.
Getting exactly the right sizes in socks, shirts and pajamas for
the male members of the family should be easy—but Isn't.
If the fabric isn't sanforized, there must be allowance for
shrinkage. And in the interest of the budget, there frequently
must be allowance for growth. Sizes, too, run somewhat differ-
ently with merchandise from different manufacturers. All in all,
a shopping trip can turn into a guessing game.
The new, stretchable knitted fabrics in nylon ora combin-
ation of nylon and dacron are removing much of the guesswork.
One garment stretches to be right fit for several sizes without
sagging or binding. Thus it can span several seasons instead of
just a couple of months.
Such fabrics are completely washable (by hand or ma-
chine), and need little or no ironing. They're done in both plain
and ribbed types and in solid colors and stripes. And they're
nice as gifts, since the stretch feature practically does away with
the size problem,
S -t -r -e -t -c -h the budget with children's T-shirts such as these.
Both are of same- size, but stretchable knit fabric insures 'fit
during several seasons of growth.
especially with spring in the
offing.
Spring , , . what a happy
thought! I suppose many of you
are already planning your work,
whether it be seeding, garden-
ing or housecleaning. Early
spring brings with it a renewal
of f a i t h in the year ahead.
Without it we could not carry.
on. It is as necessary to our
well-being as the air we
brerathe, A friend of mine gave
a series of talks on that very
subject ,just recently and I was
particularly i m pressed with
Some. of her remarks. 1 think
they will appeal to you as well.
"There are three levels of faith
—faith in God, faith in others
and faith in ourselves. They all .
work together. A strong faith
in God makes a strong human
being. Then there is faith in
others. If you have faith in the
people around you, you trust•and
respect them. If you lack this
faith you mistrust and despise
them. Sometimes an unfortu-
nate experience destroys your
faith in people., Don't, whatever
the provocation, let this happen
to you for lack of faith can grow
like a bad weed and spoil your
relationship with all .you meet.
Then there is faith in yourself.
Without faith in yourself you
become inadequate — without
vitality and lacking the power
that you should be using. But
you can develop faith in your-
self. It is an act of will. You
can have faith or distrust; con-
fidence or fear. The possibili-
ties are within your mind. You
must have this triple faith' f
faith in God, faith in others and
faith in yourself. You CAN have
it; faith can be developed and
with it comes an amazing power.
Faith is the ingredient which
mixed with prayer, gives you
direct communication with the
Divine."
• Well, 1 don't think I need add
anything to those remarks —
they speak for themselves, But

Where Women
Score
What are the ten small but
important things which a wo-
man can do better than a man?
A romantic but rather cynical
Frenchman undertook to find
out. He studied women for five
years, reports a Paris corres-
pondent; and then compiled this
list of things which, he said,
women of all ages can do in-
comparably better than mere
men;
Dress lightly without catching
cold,
Cry at the right moment.
Avoid an argument by a smile.
Choose a present.
Obtain a special dish for a
dog in a restaurant.
Write a long letter and say
nothing.
Remove a speck of dust from
another person's eye. -
Choose underwear for the op-
posite sex without embarrass-
ment.
Disturb a score of people in a
cinema before finding a seat.
Drink very hot drinks without
flinching,
Well, that's his list. What's
yours?
+�av:
Season to taste 1. c. minced cooked meat with grated onion,
salt, pepper and condiment sauce; moisten slightly with
gravy or sauce. Sift twice, then sift into a bowl, 2 o, once -
sifted pastry flour (or 1N c. once sifted all-purpose flour),•
4 taps. Magic Baking Powder, tap. salt, 14 tsp, dry mus-
tard. Cut in finely 5 tbs. chilled shortening. Make a well in
dry ingredients and add o. chili sauce.and c, milk; mix
lightly, adding milk if necessary, to make a soft dough.
Knead for 10 seconds on floured board and
divide dough into 2 parte. Pat one part into a
greased round 83' cake pan and spread almost
to edges with meat mixture; moisten edges of
dough with water. Pat second part of dough into
an 8%' round and place over meat mixture;
press lightly around edges to seal; score top layer
deeply into 0 pie -shaped wedges. Bake in hot
oven, 425', about 20 mins. Serve hot with
brown tomato sauce. Yield -0 servings.

TIE STANLEY CUT' — PART 1
• All sport Is dotted tvlth daring gambles
plat I►ave addcil vastly to the tlruma.
And the Stanley Cup, around whtch have
centred for more plan half a century
some of the greatest thrllls In Canadlan
sport, has provided many of these.
Perhaps the most daring of all chance -taking came about
in the Stanley Cup finals of 1942, when Toronto Leafs faced
Detroit Red Wings, Aflcr three gomes—it was 4 -in -7 series—
the Leafs' cause looked completely hopeless. Wings had won
the flrst three games, the fourth was on Detroit ice, and vic-
tory for the Wings was regarded as a mere hatter of form,
But Leafs gambled, Taking a desperate chance, they shot
in three youngsters to replace established stars. Big'Gordie
Drillon, one of the great all-time goal -getters,- had scored 23
goals and was an all-star right winger for Leafs that year;
Bouncing Bucko McDonald, now an MP, got second -team re-
cognition on defense, But Detroit concentrated on Drillon
right from the opening face-off, That slowed down Leafs'
whole offence because it tied him up and left Syl Apps, at
centre, without a scoring mate,
And so, by the end of the third game, Detroit, which
flnished flfth In the regular season and beat Montreal and
defender Boston in the preliminary rounds, held a seemingly
unsurmountable lead, And here Leafs took one of the most
dramatic gambles in Cup history, In a Inst minute switch,
Ernie Dickens, who spent most of the season with Providence
in the minor leagues, replaced Bucko McDonald on defense.
Gaye Stewart, just called up from Hershey, took Hank Gold-
up's place, Leafs put Don Metz in for the scoring star, Drillon.
And with this revamped lineup, Leafs made Cup history.
They won the Cup In four stralght, the only time in playoff
history that a team lost the flrst three and came back to .win.
Montreal Canadiens similarly diced wlth hockey fate in
the Cup series of 1953: They met Chicago Black Hawks the
flrst round, won the flrst two games. Then, suddenly, Hawks
wheeled In their tracks, beat Canadiens three times In a
row, and wlth the next game on Chicago ice, looked like
scoring astunning upset,
So Dick Irvhi, veteran Canadlcn coach, gambled, He
benched four regulars, goaler McNell, Paul Meger, Dick
Gamble and Paul Masnlok. He replaced these with four minor
leaguers, goaler Jacques Plante, Lorne Davis and Calum
McKay .from Bnffalo Blsons, Eddie Mazur from Victoria.
Planto turned In a story -book game, scored a shutout. Can-
adlens took two games, won the round and went on to beat,
Boston for the Cup.

men ..heglut. a race—a race to
decide who would be the flrst
Amer can sto drill an oil well.
When thc'•"race ended, the win-
ner, Dr. H. C. Tweedel; had lost
and the loser, "Col," E. L.
Drake, went on to become an
almost legendary figure, popu-
larly regarded as the man who
ushered in the American oil In-
dustry.
(Commercial oil production in
North Amerlca had already be-
gun with the discovery of oil
In quantity in Ontar'lo's Lamb -
ton county in the 1850's.)
Drake drilled in the U,S.;
Tweedel chose to drill in Can-
ada, near Dover, a small village
not far from Moncton in east-
ern New Brunswick.
Tweedel, whose • name has
been almost forgotten, was a
Plttsburgh chemist and an ad-
viser to the Pennsylvania Rock
011 Co., formed in 1854, At that
time the ope source of petroleum
in the U.S, was natural seep-
ages, Wherever 'it collected on
Nater in Pennsylvania and New
York it was laboriously scooped
Off' the surface, fancily bottled
and sold as "Seneca Oil;" al-
legedly a good embrocation for
man or beast.
Many humans, besides rubbing
fit on their bruises, sores, sprains
and cuts, were using it as an
internal remedy, and farmers
bad discovered that it was also a
lubricant for wooden wagon
axles.
With business booming, the
directors of the Pennsylvania
Rock Oil Co, reasoned that if
they could pump petroleum
from, a well, as water was
pumped, they'd,'have a great ad-
vantage over 'their competitors. .
This, of course meant drilling a
well. Tweedel was fully aware
of the opportunities. He had
some knowledge of geology. and.
felt he should have ,charge of .
the big project. His pride was
hurt when his rival, Drake, was
given the project instead of him.
He decided that . if there was
a ehance of finding oil by drill-
ing in Pennsylvania, there was
a similar chance elsewhere. If
he could do it, he would vindi-
cate himself, put Drake in his
place, and perhaps make money.
He studied geological reports
from all parts of North America
before embarking on his venture
and his attention was caught
by a , report that . described' two
seepages at Dover, where Mic-
macs had for centuries mixed'
war paint and softened leather,
He arrived at Dover early in
1859, hired a crew of men, and
bought a dozen oxen. He had'
brought his prlmitive equip-
ment with him as far as he could
by railway, then"hauled it by
ox team over rutted trails.,He
built a tower with long ino
logs and, with power. provided

Thief Tries To
Steal Crocodile
Who would want to steal a
couple of snakes?. Nobody, you
might think. Yet a thief who
at dead of night broke into an
Indian zoo and got away with
two good-sized snakes. They
were poisonous, too.
Thefts from zoos, menageries
and circuses used to be much
more common than they are
to -day. A man who afterwards
said he was a great lover of
animals and could not bear to
see them in captivity once raid-
ed a Rumanian zoo and got
away with a young relndeer,
He kept it in his country gar-
den until the police caught up
with him. Back went the rein-
deer to the zoo and the man
served three months in prison.
Four years ago a reindeer in
London Zoo was missing an
antler. A young man is believed
to have wrenched the antler
from the head while the animal
was feeding. An ofcial said it
was certain that the !antler was
not shed normally; the condi-
tion of the brow'reyealed that.
What puzzled everyune was
how the thief could have left
the zoo without being seen. An
antler three feet long is not easy
to hide,
In Hungary a man who broke
into a circus tried to steal a
crocodile, He lassoed the slum-
bering beast with a large rope
but the crocodile was annoyed
and seized the man by the firm,
holding him untll his agonized
cries for help brought the nigbt
watchman to the scene.
The man was released and
afterwards charged and hnpris-
' oned for his attempted thcft.
Burglars have frequently
stolen birds from zoos. From a
prlvate zoo in the south of Eng-
land budgerigars worth 8000
.'disappeared overnight. T h e
thieves were never caught,

..PLAIN HORSE SENSE..
By' F, (BOB)
Grey .County has done It
again, In the rather stormy ses-
sions of the Annual Convention
of the Ontario Hog Producers
Association, It was .the 13 man
delegation supported by almost
100 farmers from Grey County
which carried the, day.
Forcefully presented by the
delegates, a Grey County resolu-
tion bearing the signatures of
700 hog producers called on the
Ontario government to revert to
"its previous. policy of protect-
ing the producers' rights" and
appealed to all farmers for co -
Operative action,
"If ,we, the hog producers of
Ontario, fail to attack the pres-
ent inertia both within and
without In a fearless and reso-
lute manner, we will undoubt'
edly find ourselves sacrificed in
the interest of political exped-
iency and ultimately would find
ourselves more completely the
pawns of selfish and powerful
business interests than we were
before," warned the presenta-
tion.
Spokesmen of the group scored
the Ontario government for its
"timidity and reluctance ... to-
ward providing adequate legis-
lation."
Closed Ranks,
For a while it looked as 1! the
whole marketing scheme would
fall apart wheniOFA Secretary
V. S. Milburn suggested that
another poll be taken of the
producers in the near future.
However, a motion coming from
Premier Frost's constituency,
Victoria County, that such a
vote be taken at this time, was
defeated and an amendment
proposed by Grey County car-
ried to the effect that the scheme
be continued for a year and then
submitted to a vote. This will
give the Producers Assoelation
time to rc•assess their position,
find out how useful and reliable
the new legislation will be, make
pinns for the coming year and
bring all information to their
membership. This latter point is
most important as only a well
informed' membership cnn be
expected to have confidence in
the leaders and vote intelligently
on any of.their proposals.
Tller'e cannot be any doubt
. that the outcome of this battle
for producer controlled orderly
marketing is of the utmost im-
portance to all fnr'mers in On-
tario whether they are produc-
ers of hogs or beef or milk or
tobacco or honey or what have

you, This is no time for haggling
between Federation and Union; "
this is the time for closing ranks,
lest the little bit of order In
marketing gets lost and chaos
and anarchy take its place,
Dlfferent Prinelple.
The events of the last weeks
may have had the effect of mak-
ing farmers realize that schemes
which are based on government
appointed boards are bound to
be subject to "political consider-
ations," They are apt t� be made
a political football kicked around
by parties who are dependent
for financial support on interests
directly opposed to the farmers.
It this is done on government
level behind closed doors the'
odds will be against the farm-
ers, particularly if their leaders
are influenced by party loyalties.
The answer is to take the de-
cision out of the hands of gov-
ernment and back to where it
belongs, thelegislature. If each
marketing scheme were , 10 be
established by a separate Act of
Parliament, as it is done in Brit-
ain, to be administered by a pro-
ducer elected board under the
supervision of a Minister who has
to report regularly to parlia-
ment, there would be much less.
danger of underhand dealings.
Individual members of the Leg-
islature, acting in open session
and conscious of the fact that
they would be taken to task by
their constituents, would have
live up to election promises.
The safest solution, of course,
was that taken by the fathers of
present farmers when they elec-
ted their own UFO 'government,

Crazy Stunts To Win
._.... � � wagers
Most stunts, whether crazy or
just daring, are done for one of
two reasons; publicity or to win
a wager,
Another York -London pedes-
trtan who attracted consider-
able public attention was Mr.
Foster Powell. He wagered a
hundred guineas that he would
walk to York from London and
back again in six days, and won.
The most famous walking feat
of all time arising out of e -
wager was that of Captain Bar-
clay. He wagered that he would
walk a thousand miles in a
thousand successive hours.
The amount at stake was
£300 and tIte last leg of the
course was in the sporting town
of Newmarket, As the nearly
exhausted walker appeared on
the dusty road all the church
bells of Newmarket were set
ringing in celebration.
One day Queen Elizabeth 1
was with Sir Walter Raleigh
when the question came up of
how much tobacco smoke is con-
tained in a pound of tobacco —
enough for perhaps 200 pipefuls.
Sovereign and knight made a
wager on Lt. But how to make
the test? That was the problem.
"The question may be settled
in this way," annuonced one
courtier. "Let the pound of to•
bacco be burned, and then
weighed again when it is re-
duced to ashes, The weight of
the smoke will be the difference
between ashes and the unburnt
leaf."
This method was adopted, but .
history does not record either
the amount staked or what the
unoke weighed.
.The experiment was thorough-
ly unscientific, anyway.
During the Regency perlod,
wagering was very popular
among the "bloods." One day. at
London's exclusive White's
Club, frequented by the noble
and the wealthy, a member bet
Eve hundred guineas that he
would walk from Hyde Park
Corner to Plccadily Circus quite
naked.
He won his bet in a most in-
genious way.
Ordering the bottom to be re-
moved from one of his car-
riages, he walked, shielded from
the public view, inside the car-
riage, nobody noticing his bare
feet between t h e turning
wheels!
When a "buck" of the same
period bet that he would stand,
dressed as a hawker, on London
Bridge, offering new -minted
sovereigns at a penny apiece
and not sell one all day, he was
taken on.
He won his bet. No Londoner,
burrying on his way, could be-
lieve that a gold sovereign
could be bought for a penny,
Lord Spencer once made a.
curious wager and won it. This
peer of the early eighteenth
century wore the customary
coat with tails. One day he
wagered that he would usher in
* new fashion for costs without
tails.
The wager was taken up as a
bet of five hundred guineas,
His lordship then proceeded
u follows. He removed his tail
coat, sent for a tailor and had
the tails cut off very neatly,
rounding the back of the coat so
u to leave the impression that
It had been thus made in the
first case.
His leardship next took his
gold-nobbed cane and walked
wlth great composure through
the fashionable Pump Roome of
Bath, All who aaw him were
greatly impressed.
There followed a stampede by
the young "bucks" to their tall -
ors, pressing demande for the
immediate cutting of costa in
the new style.
Towards the end of the eigh-
teenth century there llved in
France the Chevalier D'Eon. He
had delicate features and dress-
ed In a very womanish fashion.
This led to the legend that the
Chevalier was not a man at all.
And upon this point two
wealthy men -about -town wager-
ed five hundred guineas.
Being unable to agree or
prove the matter either way,
they took the case to court.
Before the Gaming Act of
1845, the law would enforce a
wager,
The famous, Lord Mansfleld
presided over the trial. He
heard all gravely, pronounced
himself dlsgusted with such a
case, but obliged to treat the
wager seriously. He gave judg-
ment of seven hundred pounds,
on the grounds that the one
party had not proved the Che-
valier a woman after all.
Another court case was
brought by Lord March, He had
made a wager with a Mr. Pigott
that a Sir William Codrington
would die before Mr, Plgott's
father.
But old Mr. Pigott was car-
ried off suddenly by a fearful
attack of the gout, unknown to
the wagerers at the time when
they made their bet,
His son claimed that since his
father had died a few hours be-
fore the bet was made, there
was no true bet.
But the jury did not take that
view and Lord March was
awarded the five hundred
guineas of the bet and costs.
Another bet which ended in
the law courts (and much laugh-
ter) was made as follows,
One man bet another that he
would produce three horses that
could go ninety miles In three -
hours. As this feat seemed clear-
ly impossible he was taken on,
the wager being a hundred
guineas.
The wagerer, who was also a
wag, duly harnessed three fine
trotting horses and set them o1
together.
"Three times three is nine,"
he grinned, "and three times
thirty is ninety." ,
The horses covered the thirty
mile course, shoulder to shoul-
der, and the bet was claimed.
The claim was resisted, the law-
yers were brought in,
In court the judge decided for
the plaintiff, though most peo-
ple would agree that it was a
trick bet.
Such actions were quite com-
mon up, to a century ago. Then,
in 1845, the Gaming Act was
passed, since when no betting
transactions are enforceable.
But among sportsmen, to
plead the Gaming Act is still
considered dishonourable, and
only the unscrupulous resort to
thls shelter provided by the law.
Nor hell nor heaven shall that
soul surprise,
.Who loves the rain,
And loves his home,
And looks on life with quiet
eyes.

Australlan Wonder
I told Tiger to pack and move
back ,towards Ayers Rock, • 1
would go on alone through the
bluffs to get photographs,' and
would follow the camels later.
Thus, a little after sunrlse, 1
moved once again up the elope
of flowering lilies and followed
a ridge to eastwurd, far enough
to look into all the Olga chasms
at once. It was an unforgettable
eight, transcending by far the
grandeur of Ayers Rock, or any-
thing else I have witnessed In
my lifetime. The dome on which
1 stood was warm and peaceful
In calm sunlight, and the dis-
tant howling of Wulpa Chasm
was like a far -away, dim aecom- .
paniment to the impressive still-
ness of the hidden valley In be-
tween and below me. Two or
three miles out beyond the cir-
cumference of the complete
• Olga group a heavy ground fog
spread out above the sandhi]],
• and plains like a snowfleld. It
commenced to tuft and break
up as I dropped down into a
narrow crevice, tightly paciced
with undergrowth for about
two hundred yards, An hour or
more later I emerged on the
elope of another valley to meet
three dingoes almost face to
face. They paused a fraction of

We Cail Plan Anyway
No matterwhat the • ther-
mometer may say, or the
weatherman, may warn, the
calendar and seed catalogues
say that spring is just, around
the corner, Even if we cannot
actually get out and dig for a
few weeks yet, at least we can
sit by the fire and plan the gar-
den we are going to have this
year, And a little planning will
prove useful as well as pleasant,
In this, a Canadian seed cata-
logue will be most useful, These
are packed with all sorts of
vital .information such as the
heights'of flowers and the color
and the time of bloom, In vege-
tables, we learn whether they
are hardy or tender, how much
room they require in the row,
what sort of special soil and sun
preferences .they have, With
such informntion we can plan a
continuous show of bloom in the
flower garden and we can get
the utmost out of vegetables
from even a tiny plot of ground.
Not a Feast or Famine
The modern garden is no
longer a feast and famine propo-
sition, with more peas, beans or
corn than we could eat for a
week and then none at all, or
with ,a grent showing of bloom
In July but. not a single flower
In August.
With planning, there is no
reason why either fiower or
vegetable garden should not be
yielding something every day
from the first blooms and greens
In tho spring until long after the
ground is frozen hard next fall.
Very conveniently, most flow-
ers and vegetables arrange
themselves into three main
planting groups so far as the
Canadian climate is concerned.
In the seed catalogue the usual
descriptionis hardy, semi -hardy
and tender. The flrst of these
can go in just as soon as the soil
is ready. These things love the
cool wet weather and thrive
best and longest when planted
early. In this class are the sweet
peas, cosmos, alyssum, and other
flowers which normally seed
themselves. In the vegetables:
lettuce, radish, spinach and gar-
den peas are all ' hardy, All
these will stand quite a bit of
frost. The ,semi -hardy group will
usually survive a touch of frost
but they don't like it and it will
certainly set them back. These
include beets, carrots, beans and
corn in the vegetable line and
petunias, asters, balsam and so
en among the flowers. Then
there is the really tender group,'
the plants like cucumbers,
melons, dahlias, geraniums and
such, that will kill almost in-
atantly if the mercury falls be -
'low 32 degrees. There Is no use
risking any of these outdoors
before both the air and soil are
really warm and all' dangor of.
frost is over.
A Few Cents,' 1 ut Vital
Nothing is so'vital as the right
kind of seed. Suitable seed is
more than just high 'quality, It
Is seed of varieties especially
aelected and for. Canadlan con
dittons. In vegetables it nlso
means that the variety has been
approved and tested ofllcinlly for
Canada. As seed Is the only
factor in gardening over which
one has absolute control, and the
cost is negligible, nothing but
the best should be. considered.

Y
They' Warbled Their Way To Top
By DICK KLEINER
NEA Staft Correspondent
New York - (NEA), - It is
very simple to become a rich,
famous and, beloved girl singer.
Just follow these tested rules,
as practiced by the richest, moat
f a m o u s and most beloved
thrushes of the day:'
1. Start out to be an actress,
as Dinah Shore did,
2. Start out to be an artist, as
Patti Page did,
3, Start out to be a dancer, as
Joni James did,
4. Flip a coin, as Rosemary
Clooney dld.
And if these are too compli-
cated, just keep singing, as they
all did. For there is no simple
path to thrushdom, and theso
girls -the top stars --all achleved
fame in different ways,
Dinah Shore and Joni James;
for example, are perfect con-
trasts, Miss James is celebrated
as record's "Cinderella Girl;'
and not because of a glass slip-
per. It took her just one record,
the smash hit, "Wliy Ddn't You
JONi JAMES: A thrush without
a sound is nowhere,at all.
Ghost Still Walks
The little Royalty Theatre in
Dean Street, Soho, famous as
the place where Gilbert and
Sullivan scored their first suc-
cess, "Trial by Jury," is to 'be
demolished at last. It attracted,
Londoners and visitors for al-
most a century until tt be-
came a Blitz casualty. The
Royalty is one of the playhouses
in London that is, by repute,
haunted; The story goes that
114 years. ago, when the theatre
was being built on the site of
an a n c i e n t dwelling -house,
workmen came across the body
of a girl walled up in one of
the rooms. .
Slie was the sweetheart of a`
fiddler; and when passion died
he slew her and concealed her
body in the wall of the death -
chamber. She is, however, un-
able to rest in peace; . and at
certain seasons wanders about
the theatre.
PHILOSOPIIY AND .THE
SEARCH FOR WISDOM
To be a .philsospher is ' not
merely to have subtle thoughts,
nor even to found a school, but
so to love wisdom as to live
according to its dictates, a life
of simplicity, independence,
magnanimity, and trust.

But Dinah Shore didn't have
it so easy, Her flrst record is
now a collector's Item, It fea-
tured Xavler Cugat and his
band on a tune called "Thrill of
a New Romance;' In small print
It said, "Vocal by Dlnah Shaw,'
She was just a scared kid then
-too scared to do anything
about correcting the misspelling
of her name. She was scared
for several years,
D I n a h never particularly
wanted to be a singer, As a
starry-eyed teen-ager, she flxed
her starry eyes on a career as
an actress, In 'fact, at Hume -
Fogg High School, in Nashville,
she was the leading lady in the
dramatic soclety. (Leading man,
incidentally, was Delbert Mann,
now a. top television director
with th'e Philco-Goodyear TV
Playhouse,)
She always sang, but just for
fun. She was going to be an-
other Helen Hayes, and Helen
Hayes 'was no thrush. So, after
trigh school, she decided to storm
New York. Her mother had died
when she was 15; and her father
was set ngainst the little girl
going to the wicked city,
But Dinah went, Her father
wouldn't help her financially, so
she sold her camera and en-
larger (photography Is har
hobby) and lit out for Broad-
way with a bankroll of $232.
She was ludky. Insidgof.three
months, slle was embarked on
her career -but as a singer, not
an actress. Sha switched forthe
best of reasons: got a job sing-
Ing.
ingIng.
It was a spot on a local Now
York radio station. At flrst,
there was no pay. But it led to
occasional band dates, complete
with money. And there was .a
two-week engagement at the
Strand Theatre at $70 a week,
Then . an NAC executive heard
her and soon she had her own
15 -minute show.
_* • e
"During my first five years,"
Dinah recalls,' "I was always'
nervous. I never sang . well at
all. I don't know: why anybody
liked me, My father used to
write me letters 'saying. 'Save
your money -you .can't sin, like
Gracie Fields','
DINAH SHORE AND MELISSA: It was along road, but a record
called "Yes, My Darling Daughter" helped on the way up.
But, despite this modest self -
appraisal, Dinah gradually grew
In popularity. She achleved her
first real fame on a great radio
show, "The Chamber Music So-
ciety of Lower Basin Street"
And she went nation-wide on
the Eddie Cantor show. A re-
• cord, "Yes My Darling Daugh-
ter," . helped, too.
It was a long pull for" Dinah
Shore.
It was quicker and easier for
' .Joni James. But stardom is
never a pushover.
Jont is a tiny Chicago girl,
who'd been studying dancing
since she. was 12, Ballet was her
dream, She lived it, slept it,

Much interest is being shown
in the recent' development' of
antibiotic products, such as
streptomycin, and their possible
use in combating bacterial dis-
eases of agriculture crops. Of'
these diseases, flre blight is very
sovere on apples aild pears,' It
Is at: -times particularly des-
tructive on the widely planted
Bartlett pear, Outbreaks of the
disease • are feared by growers
because disease development is
sudden and rapid and the 'toll
is heavy in loss of branches,
limbs or entire trees. Further-
more fire blight. is a most difll-
cult disease to control, and to
remove all of the numerous
cankers requires' hours of care-
ful pruning, It is encouraging
to learn that results of orchard
trials show that streptomycin
applied as a spray reduces .the
incidence of the disease. It may
well be that .in the future this
antibiotic product wilI provide
growers with a helpful aid in the
control program for fire blight.

about the desirable dosage rate,'

was never a thought of a singing
career. ' * '
She had a brief Ring as a
dancer, on a Canadlan tour, then
was laid up by an appendicitis
attack. While recuperating she
sang. And -this is real life, too .
-somebody heard her; offered
her a record contract, and her
first record was the biggest hit
of the year.
While their backgrounds dif-
fer, both Dinah Shore and Joni
James have one thing in com-
mon, And this . item is what
makes them . singing stars -their
voices are distinctive. You can't
mistake them. Itou can always
tell Dinah's creamy voice and
Joni's tear -spattered sound.
And, in the opinion of many
top students of .the field, it Is im-
possible to achieve fame in pop
singing unless you have a voice
that is quickly recognizable.
There are many great singers
around who've never made it,
simply because their voices lace:
any distinguishing sound.

Use of fluidmilk as such in.

After he had performed' In .
Holland some years ago, cus-
toms officials were puzzled by
the . dummy piano and asked
what it, was. Moiseiwitsch ex-
plalned its purpose and invited
an official to play ort it. When
no sound was produced, the cus-
toms men looked even more
mystified.
Then another official ex-
clained: "I remember seeing one

named Moiseiwitsch has one."'

In the dark ages there was a
tendency for Christians to with-
draw from soclety in order to
keep pure. Today the line of
distinction between the Christian
and the world is very ill-defined.
There Is a happy medium be-
tween these two extremes, The
Christian is to be the salt of the
earth and the light of the world.
He must not lose his savour nor
hido his light. In the dark ages
the Christian tended to hide , his
light; today he is more likely.to
lose his savour. Either is bad.
Paul says, "Owe no man any
thing, but to love one another."
The debt of love to each other
can never be fully paid. Many
other debts are being paid these
days by the returning of 'the
purchased article. The wave of
credit buying may stimulate
business but it finally proves
very trying on the nerves of
those who yield to the temptation
of overbuying. The frustrations
will be remembered when the
pleasure of the temporary pos-
session will be forgotten. Par-
ticularly is this true when the
article was decidedly a luxury
and not a necessity.
We bring some trials on our-.
soles. Others come for which we
can find no apparent cause. How-
ever' there can always be a pro-
fltable.•result. The sufferer can
learn to glorify God by suffering
as a Christlqn should suffer, He
may even reJoice as he considers
himself a partaker of Christ's
sufferings. Not all achieve this
point of victory but those who
do are a marvel to their fellow-
men. Their lives .inspire.. Let ua
not suffer as an evildoer or as a
busybody. If we suffer because
we have' taken our stand for
Christ there is. no occasion for
shame. We may glorify "God in
suffering.

Moiseiweitsch wore a velvet

made his London debut as a

citizen in 1937. He ldves London
