This is done by the slucly of the Mlsslona'y book prc- rcribcd each year, by suitable readings and music and tlevotional cxcrciscs at each mooting, Another object lin,, been to raise funds to carry the, work beyorid our own area to home and _ Ott- erscas mission fields, In past years money was raised by suppers, teas, talent money, mite boxes, travelling baskets, birthday. boxes, ete, 111 102 n,rathee unlquc plan was carried out. Each member pledged" herself to raise $1, and at the end of the year to tell in rhymhow she had raised it, Tho treasury benefitted by the plan ancl. the verses, which were later typed aid sold in booklet, form were, to 'say the least, hnfornnativo and enterinining. In recent years practically all funds are raised by , free-will offerings, and the allocation is always reached, A spec- ial fund for the Truhning School was lakeii in 1953, Othcr activities have been the sending of cards tothe sick and shut ins and bereaved, sending of delegates to Sectional and Presbyter- ial conventions, sending of resolutions of disapproval to the government 10- gardiing temperance legislation, nlso letters to some magazines protesting liquor advertising. Another hnportant department is the relief work, During both World War, the, W,M,S, members took an active part in working with the Red Cross, raising funds for material and boxes for serviceincn and doing a great deal of sewing and knitting. Much relief work has been done through the years by , sending bales of usecl aid new clothing, layettes, quilts, etc,, son2e- thnes directly overseas, sometinnes tri depot In Toronto.

"We read the simple truth," said Mr. Watson, "in the words, 'Absolotn is dead,' Suddenly into the vigor and idealism of youth came the cold finger of,death, It was hard to believe, So today we hear the words, 'Douglas is dead!' And it is equally hard to believe, Distress sllatters everything and there Is nought left but doubt, Even God doesn't care. The world seems harsh and heartless, In the midst of this we must remember that Christ has gono before and prepared the way, Through Him a shaft of light hos penetrated the darkness, His sublime faith will strengthen your own faltering faith, Doubts and bitterness will be over- come because you believe, Believe in Him and you will belleve in God, Be- lieve in God and you will be saved in your distress. Let not .your heart be troubled," "This," said Mr. Watson, is the message that can make the sun shine again in your darkened world," Following the service interment was made hn Blyth Union Cemetery, Pallbearers were Bruce Falconer, Gordon Howatt, Ronnie McDougall, Barrie Youngblut, Ross Youngblut and Gerald Honking, and the many beauti- ful floral tributes were carried by Har- old Creighton, Kenneth Glousher, Stewart Younngblut and Jack Howatt, all of whom were his neighbours and churns.

This is by means of tiles only 11/2 by 2 inches in size. They are porus, and by an infrared process each can throw upwards of 1600 degrees of heat against an object without heating the air between. A German invention, it has been used throughout Europe for such pur- poses as cooking, heating factories and melting Ace. KILLER HITCHED LIFT She was obviously pretty—, much too pretty, some might think, to be alone on the first- class deck as the cross -Channel steamer ploughed through the choppy sea from Newhaven to Dieppe on that boisterous spring day. And suddenly, although she loved the sea, she began to feel unwell. She staggered a little. A moment later a young man, a stranger, appeared on deck and proffered h e r some brandy. Gratefully, she swallowed some. She was feeling too ill to note the young man's face. And as she herself was "muffled up" against the wind, he could catch no more than a glimpse of hers._ He did not return to claim his flask and she was obliged` to keep it. Often, afterwards, she wondered about the identity of the gallant stranger. Four years passed. She was introduced to a handsome young London business man. They fell in love and married. Their honeymoon journey took them across the Channel. Being a poor sailor still, the young wife soon began to feel the motion of the boat. Her husband offered to go and procure some brandy, but she said faintly: "Open my dressing - case, darling, you'll find a flask in there:" Quickly he did so—and then exclaimed in amazement: "Why, this is my flask. I gave it to a girl on the Channel crossing some years ago, and I forgot to collect it." An almost incredible coinci- dence—but it happens to be true. For the long arm of coinci- dence is as long to -day as ever it was. It reaches across time and space in an amazing way. For instance, when two cars collided a few weeks ago, the drivers introduced themselves. Each was named Cyril White. Each lived in Yorkshire, but sixty miles apart. Said a local police official when the coincidence came to his notice: "It was a ,chance in a million that two men with the same name 'should meet for the first time in such a manner." • CASUAL — CORRECT - CONFIDENIIIAL — Fash ion eyes glasses addition to their primary function.

After his return from holiday he was serving behind the coun- ter of his employer's jewellery shop in the city when a shifty - eyed man entered and offered to sell a bracelet—the very one that had been stolen. The un- lucky thief was handed over to the police. On a windy March day during the first world war a Highgate, London, man sat with a number' of other men outside a dug -out on the dockside at Dunkirk. Sud- denly a piece of paper fell at his feet. ; ' It -'was one of hundreds of pieces that were floating about in the air, and came from a ship which was unloading a consign- ment of waste paper. Glancing at the paper, the man was astonished to see his own name written on it. It was part of a memorandum sent by his father, a railway inspector, to his head office, That fugitive scrap of paper, part of a Government purchase from the railway companies, had come from London. "That it should fall at my feet, although there were t:undreds of us there, was . simply amazing," declared the man, when relating the coincidence. Ocie of the most remarkable birth coincidences on record concerns the family of Mrs. White, a Fareham (]=Iants) wo- man: She became the proud mother of six children, all of whom celebrate itheir birthday anni- versary on the same day. A daughter was born on July 27th, 1886, triplets were born on July 27th, 1901, and twins were born .. on July 27th, 1902. What is equally amazing is that all were born between four and five o'clock in the, morning. Before leaving London on a business; trip- to the United States, Mr; V. Saville made ex- haustive but unsuccessful in- quiries as to the wherebouts there of a relative whom he had not seen for years. Fresh business called him from New York to Los Angeles. Some hours after the train had left New York, he entered the crowded dining-carand took the only vacant bat—opposite the very relative all his inquiries had failed to trace. "The odds were , tremendous against such a meeting in the middle of the American contin- ent," Mr. Saville commented afterwards. Lord Rotherham told in 1945 the story of how, when he was visiting Japan with a cousin, 'they each bought a cigarette case on which they had their initials engraved. "Sixteen years later, while walking on the grass` beside a moorland rtired in Derbyshire, I kicked a piece of metal," said Lord Rotherham. "It turned out to be the case my cousin' had bought all those years before. Drive With Care "My cousin, who lived twenty miles from the spot where, the cigarette ,case was found, had motored over the road three weeks previously and the case must have dropped out of his car." An American now serving a seven years' jail sentence for the manslaughter of his wife's lover ran from his home on the fatal day scarcely realizing what he had done, He wandered about aimlessly, his mind bemused.` He staggered as he crossed a road anti was nearly run down by a passing car. The driver, seeing he was near collapse, helped him stop a passing ambu- lance, The American got into it. Then he recoiled as he saw the other "passenger." It was the man he had killed a quarter of an hour before. Yet another tragic coincidence was revealed in France, A young • man became so ad- dicted to wine and women that his father, a rich Lyons business man, turned him out of his house and disinherited him. The son con ?pitted a series of robberies with violence during the next four years, Then the father retired from business and made his home at Charenton on the outskirts of Paris. One misty night the old man was walking along the banks of the Seine, thinking bitterly of the past and wondering what had happened to his dissolute son, when he was- suddenly at- tacked from behind. . He put up a fight and was stabbed by his attacker who be- gan to search the dying man for money and other valuables, As. he bent over him, the father recognized his son. "Oh! Pierre!" he gasped—and died. The son walked to the nearest gendarme and gave himself up. His confession showed beyond ,doubt that he had been unaware - of his victim's identity when ,he waylaid him, nor did he know his 'father had come to live in the Paris area, The earliest use of wool as textile is not known, however, people of Babylon had already mastered the arts of spinning and weaving wool cloth in 300 B,C, SALLY'S SALLIES "I have proof tho fellow broko my heart, I've had X-rays taken of it." Life InBili Agung Biang :uperviscd 'tie kitchens herself, These were a group of pavilions in one of the inner courts, where pigs ran in and out among the piles of co- conuts and mats of fish spread out to dry in the sun. She did nothing so unregal as to cook, but she directed the rooks, and assembled and spiced the more complicated dishes. 1 love to watch her, now frowning and absorbed, Around her, girls grated piles of coconut, while trembling old men peeled and chopped shallots and garlic, chilis and aromatic roots and ground them to a paste. With 'a severe and critical air she smelt or tasted the sauces and hashes, adding palm -sugar, fish -paste, verbena or whatever seemed needed to give that final flavor. With a wide and noble gesture she refused badly pre- pared coconut -milk or a scraw- ny chicken. With noisy indig- nation she condemned ,a cluck - egg that was found to be not quite fresh. And when at last the 'dishes were finally prepared she would invite me, as I sat there looking on, to taste and comment Was there enough salt? she would ask earnestly. Was it sharp enough? Perhaps a little more ginger, or a squeeze more of lime juice. Her dishes were endless: fish baked in banana leaves; anteater stewed and served in a bamboo tube; lobster in a sauce of co- conut -cream; sea turtle in a sauce of crushed peanuts: skew- ers of birds no larger than bumblebees (could they be hummingbirds? I wondered , as I took three at one bite) , . . This repast, a strange blend of Arabian Nights and Midsummer Night's Dream, would appear after a morning of legong prac- tice. For two hours Gusti Bagus rehearsed the children to the point of exhaustion. He sat on the floor, his drum in his lap, his gaze fixed on the dancers. Sud- denly he would jump up to cor- rect a position, straigten a shoulder or turn a head a little more to the side. Once more he took up the drum. When at last the lesson came to an end, the children disap- peared (often to return in the late afternoon for another two hours), while we retired to an- other pavilion for lunch. Around us the courtyard glared in the fierce light—of the sun, now directly overhead. Languor de- scended; voices spoke softly. There was that strange noonday quiet, that. .moment- of utter timelessness, when `al] life seems suspended. - Now, after we had eaten, I would walk through the park to the pavilion on the pond, which was given to me each time I came. Surrounded by water in -this forgotten park, in this far island of friendly and mysteri- ous people — this seemed the final exquisite isolation. In the stillness two turtledoves called and answered monotonously. I read until I fell asleep. — From "A House in Bali" by COLIN McPHEE, IEGGCITING NEWS NEW TWIST — Eggs and snails both come in shells, but their shapes are never the same - except on the Lawrence Shippy farm.

GREEN TIIUMB GIVE IT PROTECTION It is discouraging t� get a fine garden of fiowers and vegetables nicely growing then have bugs or disease 'make a mess of it, And it is not necessary. True there are a lot of garden pests, but for everyone there is a spe- ciflc.cure, One is advised -to con- sult a good Canadian seed cata- logue or government bulletin or spray ca:endar. From these sources of informatlon one can learn. the proper spray, dust or other method of treatment and for a few cents it is possible to protect every sort of flower, shrub and vegetable. Also in this connection it is well to re- member that a healthy, well - cultivated garden, clean of weeds, is far less susceptible to attack than the neglected kind, KEEP IT UP Much more important than early planting is continuing that job well into June, or even July. One is making a great mistake and robbing himself of lots of fresh blooms and vegetables, if he stops sowing too early. There is no reason at' all why such things as peas, corn, beans, car- rots, beets and several other vegetables should not be sown at two. to three-week intervals right up to the first week in July, By spreading out in this way we spread out the harvest and increase by many times the yield from the average garden. We can further spread out by using early, medium and late varieties. With flowers, too, the season of bloom can be extended by the same method, Iu1R5. GERTRUDE W. EISEMAN OF BOSTON, Mass„ was recent- ly naned President of The Mothor Church, The First Church of Christ Scientist, in Boston, Massachusetts, at the Annual Meeting of The Mother Church attended by church members from many parts of the world.

With certain things like green peas, garden corn, baby carrots and beets, there is all the difference in the world if they are really fresh. But the main thing is quick growth, especially for those vegetables of which the roots are eaten. Any check in growth, is bound to .produce a certain woodiness or at least toughness. The expert gardener makes sure there is no check whatever by keeping the soil cultivated, en- riched with the necessary fer- tilizer, and watering in dry spells if he can possibly manage It, He will also thin properly _ when the plants are small so there is no crowding and twlst- ing in the rows, Finally, he will use those vegetables when the are at the very peak of their. I flavour, and by successive sow. Ings, say two to three weeks apart, he will make sure that there is always a fresh batch coming on. Once past their ma- turity most vegetables lose flav- our and become tougher. SUPPORTS Most people stake toinatoes. Usually a six - to seven - foot stake is driven flrmly in the ground when the tomato plant is set out. About every foot of growth the stem is tied loosely but securely. All side -shots are nipped off and towards the end • of the summer, to hasten ma- turity of fruit, the main stem is also nipped, For supporting sweet peas and, the taller sorts of garden peas, and also . other climbers, some people use chicken wire or old tennis nets or string, But a bet- ter material is brush if a supply can be obtained. This is pushed firmly in the ground along the rows and before the plants are more than a few inches high. Depending upon the locality, brush from three to six feet high is suitable and the bushier the better, WELL-MANNERED RAT! • A r c h i.b a 1 d MacKenzie, of Croir House, Isle of Bernera, Outer Hebrides, recently decided to give himself the luxury of breakfast in bed. Half -way through his meal he heard a stealthy noise on the stairs. He could not understand it, as he knew there was no one circ 111 the house. The door wuspushed open and in crept a large rat. It walked across' to the bedside, climbed on to the table, took a sausage, and left. After a few moments he heard the riit returning. Again it climbed on the tuble, and this time, believe it or not, grabbed the knife. A third time It cane back, and took the fork, No Mr, MacKenzle had solved a mystery that had been troubling him for weeks, Spoons had .been disappearing . . from the house.. It was obvious now where they had gone, That night Mr. MacKenzie laid out some rat poison, Next day the rat was found dead near a cupbot,rd. Opening the,, cupboard and pushing aside some boxes, he found the rat's "treasure chest": a collection of spoons, the knife and fork, a penknife, and even cakes of soap. Mr, MacKenzie has seen no rats sinee, but he says he will never forget the rat who tlscd a knife and folk, r Bus -Ride Ticket 37 Feet Long When Londoner L a w r e n c e White settles down with his TV set, he is rarely bothered by the sort of folk we all know who would rather look in on some- one else's set than buy one of their own.

Josiah Keeps the Passovcr 2 Chronlcles 35:1-6: 1¢-19 Memory Selection: 1 was glad when they said unto one, Let ue go into the house of the Lord, Psalm 122:1, ( For years Judah had neglect- ed to keep the annual feast of the Passover. Josiah made ex- tensive preparations to observe this great occasion. The official record says, "There was no Pass- over like to that kept in Israel from the days of Samuel the prophet." People who neglect the pub' lic assembly for worship miss a great deal. For the next three months thousands will bypass the churches for the beaches and their summer cottages. Many will drive two hundred miles for the weekend but ex- cuse themselves from driving five miles to a church near the cottage, Is God pleased with this? Deflnitely not, It is sad to record that Josiah made a very serious error 1n last days, Necho, king of Egypt, was on his way to war against Charchemish. Josiah foolishly went out with an army against him, He went in disguise but he was wounded in the battle. He soon died and his body was brought in his chariot to Jeru- salem. There was great lamen- tations for him, Well might the nation mourn, Josiah was only thirty-nine years old when he died, Upon his death his re- ligious reforms collapsed. Three of the four remaining kings of Judah were his sons, and "the other a grandson, They were weak and wicked, and under them the nation quickly came to a disastrous end, It is sad that so many good men and women act foolishly in their later days.

('ACE 4 THE STANDARD Maitland Got The Trout, So Says Gordon Wightman We are pleased to have this letter from Mr. Gorcion Wightman, of Grand Isle, Vermont, U,S.A., from which we know many of our readers will derive enjoyment: Sunday, June 0th, 1955 Dear Mr. Whitmore: I have before ale "The Blyth Stand- ard" of June 8, 1955, and note therein a letter from Timmins, Ont., from a Mrs. Fred Sonars (nee Herrington), which ends up with, "Sometimes 1 wish there were more news," 1 wish to add my comment to that observation with 100 percent agreement. When I was in your office last October wit's my cousin, Maitland Henry in search of wrapping paper and string to ship home a collection of fossil stones pIck- ed up at random in the fields of my boyhood out by the Maitland river, Concession 6 and 7, East Wawanosh, I subscribed to your paper largely to get a weekly record of Westfield news. That must have been an occult signal, because a few weeks thereafter all Westfield news vanished, I suppose your correspondent married, or moved away, or grew peeved, or something. I note also your own explanation of the trials of an editor in getting out a pap- ei each week, and I must say I am deeply sympathetic to your comments. Now, for some time I have felt a s'ory creeping up on me and clamoring for recognition. 1 suspect it is a kind of weakness of an ageing person wisa- irg to be heard again and to "keep the f :or" as it were, for a bit longer. So to satisfy my ego, and maybe give you a bit of grist for your mill I am about : to write you a fish story, I noted in the same Standard'of June 8, a note o'. a gentleman of 83, a Mr. Sims, who was bent upon "goin' flshin' ". There is nothing that catches my eye in any newspaper like a good fish story, When your paper came out a few weeks back with stories of opening day for trout, and your account of my cousin Maitland's fine catch, my mind flashed back to a day close to 60 years ago when Maitland and 'I went on a joint expedition down "on the big creek" where it flows over the fields and foun- dations of the old Enoch Shorts mill on the lands now owned by our cous in, Marvin McDowell, and his son, Harvey McDowell. In those days the "big creek" had more water in it, for the••water table in the soil was still but little below the forest level when the humus content of the soil had not been reduced by intensive cultivation or bush burning. By the time we reached the mouth of the "big creek" where- it empied into the Maitland river, we were reduced to a single set of fishing gear. Either fish bait or fish line of one of us had given out and we were taking turns on use of the re- maining gear. I cannot now remember who owned what, but I do recall that it was my turn to fish. I achieved a cast with 'a heavily wormed hook at the base of a rock pillar of field stone which I am sure was part of an ancient dam retaining wall. The water was brown, foam flecked, and deep. There was a tremendous tug on the line and an equally tremendous reflex by me. In those days "playing the fish" was an art not practiced or favored by the Tired,Weak Men!

The equipment of maple pole, a line of stout wrapping cord propor- tion and a fish hook of meat hook pro- portions, the idea MIS to stiff heel the fish out of its element into either grass, bush or tree top and retrieve the same at slow but, relatively sure leisure, trusting to the reflex flopping of the trout to reveal its whereabouts, That, at any rate, was the writer's practice. On the occasion in question, the take was a prodigious trout. After mutuai admiration of the fish came "the rift in the lute." Whose fish was it? Mait- land claimed it since it was caught on his tackle. I was equally insistent it was shine since It was my turn to fish, The rest of the afternoon was spoiled for us both, There was no more "big creek" as the .waters of the Maitland River were barren of trout ever since the "Dark Day" which is another story for another letter, but is also a fish story of a still earlier day. The end of this story? Well -I have always been afflicted with a weakness in that I ant too aware of the logic 'n an opponents arguments. That is wh:1 I am the "world's worst salesman.' This is not just talk. Almost 30 years after the afternoon in this story, I took on a summer job of selling life insur- ance, Sun Life of Canada. I sold one policy. 1 later tried my hand at taking subscriptions for magazines to help de- fray college expenses. I sold one sub- scription. And I expect that is why that trout went home on a forked ced- ar twig to Maitland's. We were a bit cool for a time but never more. We wore always too close to each other to fight about differences. I never caught a bigger trout until the years lying between 1919 and 1924. This was from a foot -wide ledge about 10 feet above"a 30 -foot deep pool on the Swift -Diamond up in New Hampshire. This fish weighed 11 pounds, was a brook trout, taken on a split bamboo rod with modern tackle, -but hoisted from the water same as the method I grew up with. This trout I gave away to a companion. This is my filth story for this time. The enclosed clipping is from the Bur- lington Free Presrs, during the open- ing of trout season here in Vermont, If you want to see what they catch up in these parts ask -Ivan Wightman or Ken Brigham to show- you some pic- tures of trout taken up in this end of Vermont, I have not fished New Eng- land streams since 1924 and I am not an ardent lake fisherman. - I (lave -a lot of other things I could write you about in the early. days of any boyhood on`lot 34, concession 7, East Wawanosh, Some of these con- cern Blyth, Maybe a reprint of a col- umn of The Standard 50 years ago, 40 years ago, etc., same as some modern papers do, might be of interest to us oldsters. For my part, I'd like to read again the verbose controversy between Andrew Sloane who lived just north of Blyth, and Alec Morton, a neighbor on lot 33, concession 6, just a mile south of my birth place, I cannot now recall what was the controversy, but I do recall the eagerness with which the Blyth paper was received and read by us who naturally were in the Morton camp, since Alex was a neighbour, a grit, albeit a staunch Presbyterian, This is about all for this time. Sincerely yours, GORDON E. WIGHTMAN. Grand Isle, Vermont, Ed, Note -In answer to Mr. Wight - man's query about Westfield news, the absence of which has been quite noticeable and worrisome to us here at The Standard Office -we hope to be able to do something about It in the near future, Regarding excerpts from eery editions of The Standard -we re- gret that files are in such a deplorable condition that it would be impossible to reprint from concurrent issues, but we (night publish at random from is. sues of various dates. Thanks for the suggestion, Regarding future stories from Mr, Wightman-we will welcome them anytime, as we believe many of our subscribers will also.

Summer Sports .Enjoyable Especially For Golfers Local golfel'a have taken to the greens of district golf courses again, happy In the knowledge that many fine months of ideal golfing weather lie ahead of them, and when we say that we really mean it. Nothing will deter the enthusiasm of these gentlemen but snow, and even at that last fall when most people were thinking of hockey, our local sten were still employed on the golf courses, Golf steins to have supplanted lawn bowling in this community as we hav- en't -yet heard' a whisper about the latter, but perhaps the season is still early for bowling, and we still have lots of time to hear of the exploits of our bowlers, In either case, the sport is relaxing and healthful, What could be more enjoyable than chasing a golf ball up hill and down dale with the thermometer registering a "cool" nine- ty in the shade, There must be some- thing about the game that so far we haven't been able to••discover, because hundreds of people do just that at ev- ery available opportunity and contin- ue to call it relaxation and fun, We'll still take our lemonade in the shade, please.

Since school days I've been good friends with another woman. When she married, things were rough, and for years I pitched in and helped her clean house, baby-sat for her children, etc, "Well, time marches on. Her boys are grown and getting mar- ried. She has •come into money, bought a new home and two cars. She has let me down con- ,siderably these past few years; the' only times she's invited the were (shrewdly enough) when she and her husband were to entertain, and the visit would end with me right in the kitchen - helping the servants. "Recently she visited me for the first time in ages. A son is to be married, and (with the air of a countess) she said: 'There will be 100 at the cocktail party and I need you; I'll have no . other help," and walked out be- fore I could answer! I could not sleep all night, I'd thought I would be a guest at the event, but no, I'm still to be Cinder- ella. "For a long time she has been so overbearing and given me such a feeling of inferiority! Now she is on the way up, and we are still struggling along , , I shall be looking forward to your good, sound advice, and -thank you kindly for it. CINDERELLA." TWO COURSES * Your problem is not so un- * common as you think. Many a e childhood friend accepts grate- * fully all the love, sympathy * and practical help another woman gives her for years on * end — and when she comes * into money, changes her en- * tire nature. She believes her • new wealth entitles her to au- * thority, and she exercises it * with almost unbearable acro- * Bance, Instead of using her * good fortune to brighten • the * lives of less fortunate friends, * she thinks they should be flat- * tered by her recognizing their * existence. In other words, she * becomes a first-rate snob. * You can take either of two * courses: keep on serving her * in your former capacity as a • helper and. getting a kick out * of it, smiling beneath your * hurt, with the conclusion that * she doesn't know any better * or you can decline the "honor" * and end the friendship, The * latter choice is the customary * one, for there can be Ilttle * true companionship left be- * tween you. She is not the * grateful friend she used to be. * Her ostentation should arouse * only your pity, because -she is * missing a fine experience in * life, * We all know so many peo- * ple, who, notwithstanding any * change in social position, tress- * ure our friendship through * the years. They value us for * what we are and have been to * them, and lose no opportunity " to show their appreciation for * long and beloved associations, * I know how hurt you are, * but you should not be. It is * she who has failed you, and * her better self. She does not * need your help now, but she * would make a slave out of you notwithstanding. It is she who is inferior, of course, I think you owe it to your per- '} sonal dignity and self-respect * to take' the strong stand; she * will have to respect it.

Barclae Warren - Mr, Warren's column is syndic- ated in seventy or more On- tario newspapers and in news- papers in Lexington Ky., Cin- t;lnnati Ohio, Kansas City Mo., Indiana and New York State. This book will be published simultaneously by Thomas Nel- son and Sons, New York. One day, some years ago, the Reverend Barclay Warren knelt in prayer and asked for a way in which he could further God's work. He started writing articles. The recognition of these ar- tictee was widespread and im- mediate. Even ,during the hectic war years, the Prime Minister of • Canada, Mr. King, found time to write Mr, Warren "I have read with much interest the article from one of your weekly newspaper contributions, It reveals your leadership in the formation of a' true public opinion." His words are echoed by countless thousands. ' This book is an excellent se- 'ectien of these articles present- ed with an introduction by Mr, James Gregory, M,A., D.D,, (Professor of Philosophy, Rob- erts Wesleyan College, North Chile, N.Y.). Mr. Warren's ap- proach is forthright and direct, his writing simple and clear. His remarkable skill, readability and inspiration and his candid and thoroughly realistic ap- proach to religious and ethical problems, makes this book much more than a collection of ar- ticles. This book has unity and co- herence and can '%e used as a day to day guide to religious living or one can turn to it in moments of hesitation and doubt. The author covers not only the great festivals of Christmas and Easter bet also Mother's Day. Juvenile (and adult) delinquency, being prob- lems of day to day living do not escape his attention, Indeed, nothing escapes the author's attention because to him "Re- ligion is not a special compart- ment of our activities, Religion is life taken up into the fel- lowship of God," I#VEREtID R.

Rice Growing The whole process of the growing of rice is a cycle of beauty, from the seedbeds, greener than any green on earth, to the last harvested golden sheaf. I -was charmed always by every change, and es pecially by the transplanting, when the dry fields were filled with water and the farm family rolled up the legs of their blue cotton trousers and waded into the water and planted the seed- lings neatly and exactly spaced over the fields.

Then came the harvesting when once more the farm family sallied forth and with hand sickles cut the sheaves, and tied them and stacked them and carried them to the threshing floors in front of the farmhouse. There the sheaves were spread and men and women lifted the swinging bamboo flails and beat out the grain, Women swept up the grain and spread it in winnow- ing baskets and men tossed it up for the wind to clean. • When` at last the rice was harvested it was piled into vats made of clean rice straw woven into matting and shaped and tied into containers. There was poet- ry in every movement of the blue -clad peasants, and I see it all clear in my mind today, a series of exquisite and symbolic pictures, memorized through half my lifetime. Only in Java, years later, did I see the process whole and simultaneous, for there upon the richest soil and with the finest rice climate in the world, plant- ing and harvesting went on in adjacent fields, the earth in con- tinual production so that while some farmers transplanted seed- lings into the water others bore home the sheaves, When I think of Java, I see handsome brown men carrying on their shoulders sheaves, of, rice, heavy -headed and cut as exactly even as strands of yellow silk. -- From "My Several Worlds," by Pearl S. Buck. Copyright, 1954, by Pearl S. Buck. Modern Cans Safe Even When Open Did you know that a "tin can" isn't made of tin? It is actually sheet steel with only a fine coating of tin plated on both sides.. And did you know that food left in an open tin can today is just as safe as it would be in a glass jar or any other con- tainer? In• the early days of canning housewives were warned to empty the food from the can as soon at it was opened because of the danger of contamination, Many people, are still faithfully following those instructions, in spite of the fact that modern cans are perfectly safe as food containers! Years ago paint chemists de- veloped corrosion -resistant en- amels for coating over the tin. Now you can open up a can of salmon or any other food and leave the left -over portion right , in the can. But it's hard to break a habit and Grandma probably never will be convinced! Commercial food canning in Canada has grown into a multi- million dollar industry since Tristram Halliday in 1830 open- ed the first salmon cannery on the Bay of Fundy in Nova Sco- tia, Thirty years later a fruit canning enterprise was launched at Grimsby, Ontario, in the heart of the fatuous Niagara fruit belt. Today, in British Columbia 90 percent of the salmon catch is canned and represents an annual market value of 50 million dol- lars. The yearly value of Canadian canned fruits, vegetables, meats and other foods is about 250 mil- lions. The industry employs thousands of workers and di•- rectly supports more thousand; of farmers and fishermen, Thu tin can is big, businessl RONICLES iINGERFARM 4er�„rloltr.o. P C1!nri',e Seems to me I have quite a lot of catching up to do in this column — some of it good, some bad. Remember I was telling you about Mac, the dog we got from the Humane Society. Well, after giving him a live weeks' trial we decided there was only one thing to do—take him back to the ken- nels. We hated to do it—he was a friendly and affectionate dog— but he had bad habits which seemed impossible to cure. Not only that but he would not eat properly and sometimes his eyes looked as if he were suffering, Who knows—he may have been hurt or ill-treated as a puppy? After our experience with Mac we gave up the idea of getting another dog—for the time being anyway. And then I saw a Welsh Corgi advertised for sale. Re- member? , I have been want- ing a Corgi for years, Now I have one. Long body, short legs, fox - red hair and a pedigree almost as long as himself. He is nearly two years old, quiet, well-man- nered and friendly. But to peo- ple who don't know the breed he looks odd. One farmer, who had not approved of Mac, looked at our Corgi and exclaimed— "Well, things are getting worse, aren't they?" His registered name is Prince Robert of Green - sleeves and we call him "Rob- bie" for short. It was Tuesday when we got Robbie. Thursday I was baby- sitting in Toronto as Dee and Art were moving. Dave was either sleeping, playing on the veranda, or out walking with me, Dee got home about 5,15, Dave was on the veranda and I looked at him every few minutes to make sure he was all right. The last time was at 5.45, I looked and I looked —but there wasn't a sign of Dave, I called to Dee — "Dave isn't here!" Then I ran down the steps thinking he might have taken a header over the veranda railing. Not a chance, But a young fel- low, rooming next door heard what I said and. called out—"I know where he is—I'll get him!" And off he went, He had seen Dave on the run, going down the street, crossing the road, round- ing the corner and heading up Queen Street! Why he wasn't run over was a miracle. We car- ried him home, set him down on the veranda, and waited, taking no notice of him as we talked with the neighbour next door. Presently what we were waiting for happened. Dave pushed his way under the folding gate and was ready to go again. His short- lived freedom ended with a spanking. It was certainly a frightening experience and made one realize how easy it is for children to get killed on city streets .. , and how impossible to guess what a youngster's next move. will be. I was glad it didn't happen while I was alone as Grandma would have earned a poor reputation as - a baby-sitter. Maybe Dave inher- its his desire to see the world from his mother as, until she was five years old, 'she was the world's worst for running away. But we didn't live in the city. The wide open prairie, and later our Ontarjp farm fields limited the area of Daughter's escapadies. Barring a tumble into the creek or a mix-up with the cows she was comparatively safe. And the weather around here just lately ... just about every- thing, including that grand rain we were needing so badly, Things were • looking much better but now the weather has turned cold again. Tornadoes -in the States and in Ontario , . . we are just wondering. Late Saturday night, just as I was dropping off MERRY MENAGERIE "—and stop calling me your 'Ane -feathered friend'!" to sleep I heard a newscaster mention bad storms at Welland and St, Catharines, Power off and the lift bridge halfway down for forty minutes with a long line of cars waiting on tither side. It sounded quite serious and yet on Sunday it wasn't even mentioned on the main radio sta- tions at all. Had ft been a hor- rible murder or a bank robbery it would have been mentioned on every broadcast, Naturally any- one with friends in that locality would want to know mere about that storm if he had once heard it mentioned. Freak storms aro sometimes heard of only in the most casual way. For instance, all Saturday afternoon the sky had been very black in this district but we got only a few rumbles of thunc'2r. Then a young fellow came in the drugstore while I was there, said there had been a bad storm ten miles farther north but yet when he got to Milton there was no sign of a storm at all. So we are wondering about that one too. Seems as if the weatherman is determined not to let his left hand know what his right hand is doing, We are particularly in- terested in the weather just now as we have a niece on her way over to Europe and this will be her flrst voyage across the At- lantic. I imagine it is an educa- tional project as she is one of a group, all Of whom are in their second year at University. That's what I'call getting education the painless way. Or is it? I suppose someone is having to foot the bill. Monday morning , . . cold, windy and overcast—and yet a ' little humming bird is flitting around the sweet rocket in the garden. Dear, optimistic little bird, we will take a leaf from your book and hope for blighter days to 'come. And in the mean- time get on with jobs that are much better done in cool weath- er, Suiting one's work to the weather is sometimes better pol- icy than the usual wash -on -Mon- day, clean -on -Friday schedule that allows no margin at all. 1:4::::in 41it.,,o" Jamaica Miami Mexico Bermuda ilaltamas Howell AIR AND STEAMSHIP RESERVATIONS CRUISES & BUS TOURS Hotel Reservations Anywhere 0.

Tent cities form along the highway and lake shore and some even camp in their cars. Hotels and motels are booked to capacity for the annual, fishing classic months before the actual happening. Sunday morning there will be hundreds of boats of various shapes and sizes ranging from the poor man's punt to the rich man's private yacht Some boats will be Tined up at the point, one-quarter of a mile from the dock, one hour before the whistle blows to start the fishing folk on . their eager trail, Inch prizes await 'the winker, but we doubt if the prizes are as great a magnet as the chance to cio battle with a fight- ing lake trout that may range up to 30 pounds or so in weight, For this is a real sporting event, where a fisherman's dream may come true, where expert or novice, amateur or veteran can fulfill a wish of winning an angler's prize.. This 'is one of Canada's major fishing events, In fact, it has become a national sporting event, patronized by fishing enthusiasts throughout Northwestern Ontario and from distant parts. Rossport is not only famous for its big and sporting lake trout, it is the mecca of the Rossport fishing industry, where the quiet charm of inlet and island provides a setting of un- surpassed grandeur for a restful rendezvous. An all-round Port Arthur athlete who starred in lakehead hockey and baseball, Weikko Koivisto, brought in the prize- winning lalce trout at the 17th annual last year, with approxi- mately 2,870 fishermen participating, His catch weighed 15 pounds, three ounces. Fishermen's luck figured his triumph. Weikko caught the winner about two minutes after a fishing rod had been put in his hands by another contestant, who said he didn't think the fish were biting well, and he'd had enough for a while, 1Velkko won a trip to Florida, and a trip to Bermuda went to a couple who only recently had been blessed with even better fortune in the form of a pair of bouncing twins, Your Comments and suggestions for this column will be welcomed by.

The experts who head the in- vestigation are the husband - and -wife team of Drs. Joseph and Louis Rhine, of Duke Uni- versity, North Carolina. Over the past twenty years 'they have already established new fron- tiers into the unknown in their Investigation of telepathy. They conducted the amazing tests with 10,000 packs of picture cards that brought a surprise ending --the discovery that the mind-reader was "reading" not the card being telepathetically "shown" to him but the card next in the pack, the card un- known to both the telepathic "transmitter" and "receiver," Instead of telepathy, in fact, here : was evidence- of a sixth sense—and researchists in every part of the globe are now un- • dertaking tests in what they nowadays call ESP, extra -sen- sory perception, Now the Rhines are moving- on, ovingon, exploring a further new ter- ritory in th e uncharted and mysterious hinterland. This time, they're' mapping the space -trav- el that goes on in your sleep! A schoolboy in bed in Hert- fordshire dreamed that his home in Bruges .was blazing fiercely. He was so alarmed by the dream that the head -master wrote to his mother. The house had in fact been burned down. , A woman in Florida awoke sobbing `uncontrollably because she had dreamed that her son had died in a blazing 'plane. Trying to be sensible, she re- minded herself that- her son was not in the Air Force and a cheerful letter arrived the ,next day, announcing that he exect- ed to be home soon on leave. Within five nights, however, the woman dreamed the same - dream again. She was so dis- traught that her - doctor made arrangements for her to be ex - NO DUMMY SHE—This window "mannglquin" in a store window had scads of .pedestrians doing' a 'doubie•take, They'd -look at the "dummy" for several minutes, adfniring its lifelike appear. ince.

But before this could occur, a telegram arrived. Her boy had been sent home from the Far East in a 'plane which had crashed in flames on the night of her first experience. In their laboratory the re- searching Rhines have now as- sembled more than 4,000 au- thenticated cases of clairvoyant dreams, dreams that come start- lingly true and seem to make space and time travel as simple as shopping. Glance through some of these case histories at random, and • they'll set you pondering. A girl dreamed of her boy friend when he was on the other side of the Atlantic and recalled next morn- ing that in her dream his hair had turned completely white. "That's- funny," he wrote back. "So it has! I couldn't bring my- self to tell you. How did you know?" Three times . in a night a Win- chester woman dreamed that her little girl had been . killed in a road accident. The wholeghast- ly sequenece came true in grim reality the following day. Four airmen who baled out of a crippled 'plane came down near a cottage and found a high,. tea awaiting them. "I dreamed about it," said the little woman who opened the door. "I've been expecting you!" How? Why? What extraordin- ary explanation underlies this true -dreaming faculty, the sixth sense of sleep? By no means every such dream seems to look ahead to • tragic events. The wife of a former Bishop of Hereford dreamed that she entered her dining -room after morning prayers and found an enormous pig at the table. The dream came true the very next day. The pig had escaped from its sty during prayers. Movie -star Cary Grant once dreamed he was in a huge,place crowded with people, when sud- denly a girl took his hand, one of the loveliest women he had ever seen. Two weeks later, at a " Hollywood first night, an actress stumbled and 'seized Cary's hand to stop herself falling. She was the girl of his dreams. Perhaps the incident should have led to romance, to round off the story. In fact, they met and parted as strangers. Simi- larly, a truly nightmarish dream prevented a processional disaster just before the coronation of King Edward VII. The then Duke of Portland, Master of the Horse, dreamed that the crown on top of the state coach became wedged un- derneath the Horse Guards arch. He was so disturbed by the dream that he had both coach and and arch measured, Sure enough, the arch was found to be nearly two feet too low, the level of the road having been. gradually raised in preceding years. Then there was the startling case of crippled Fred Shenton, who awoke in sudden fear one night in this little house on Can- vey Island, "The sea is coming in!" The cried, "Tihe island's flooded. George is outside in a little boat, . " His wife scrambled out of bed and clashed to the window. But outside all was dry and normal. It was precisely a year later that the hungry sea swept over Can- vey and the Shentons found their son-in-law coming to res- cue them with a little boat just at Fred Shenton had dreamed. Maybe you dream that wild animals are roaming free, like another Essex man who dream- ed that a tiger was loose. Three nights later au escaped circus tiger was actually captured in his back garden, Now research will follow the line established by matihemati- clan . W. Dunne in his classic book, "An Experiment with Time," with its record of dreams written down shortly after waking, which duly came true. There was his prevision of a train wreck north of the Firth ot Forth Bridge, the shattered cars lying on the golf links. In his dream he noticed the sharp contrast between the car- nage and the fresh green grass of spring. Next spring the Fly- ing Scotsman jumped the tracks a few miles beyond the bridge / and fell on to the golf links just as he had forseen, The date was April 14th, 1914 Less familiar Is the instance experienced by Maitre Duvelle, the French lawyer, when he dreamed during an afternoon nap of being aboard a ship that struck an iceberg. He wrote a letter describing the dream and the name of the liner, which he recollected as the Gigantic. Was it a coincidence that, with- in a few hours of his dream, the great Titanic disaster occurred?. How can you explain the clas- sic of all warning . dreams, the nightmare that shook the then Prime Minister of England, Spencer -Perceval, •one -night in 1812? He came down to break- fast to tell of his dream that, ' while passing through the lob- by of the House of Commons, he had been confronted by a man in a green coat and brass but- tons, who fired a pistol at him and killed him. His friends tried to dissuade him from going to the Commons that day. Their persuasions would no doubt have been even more forcible had they known that, on the same dight, a Cor- nishman in Redruth had dream- ed AAnother version of the same dreiitn, Mr. Williams, of Red- ruth, did not know what the Prime Minister looked like. But he had dreamed that a man in a green coat had shot and killed an important Parliamentary fi- gure in the Iobby of the House of Commons, Perceval insisted on going to the House as usual. In the lob- • by he was shot by a maniac dressed in a green coat with brass buttons! Who's Top Catcher --Yogi or Campi? Charley Dressen will talk baseball as long as he has an audience, but he refuses to be coaxed into picking between Yogi Berra 'and Roy Campanel- la, the game's two leading catch- ers. Charley managed the : Dodgers and "Campy" from 1949 through 1951 and coached with the Yan- kees in '46 and '47, so he has had opportunities to study both men at close range. "It's hard to separate them," said the manager of the Wash- • ington Senators, "Right now I'd take either one of them for my ball club, "Berra, in spite of tvhat you sometimes hear, is a ' smart cookie and good handler of pitchers, The same goes for Campanella. Roy is the best low ball catcher I've ever seen, even though he sometimes blocks the. ball instead of, catching it. The point is, it doesn't get by him. "Yogi, at times, has been a little weak on pop files," Dres- sen went on. "But he does every- thing else well and has a great arm, He can fire the ball to any base. And they both have power at bat, The Dodgers couldn't win the pennant without Campy find the Yankees wouldn't have a chance without Berra, They're the difference."

Masons To .Convene At Tor- onto For 100th Anniversary Several thousand Freemasons from all parts of Ontario and Canada along with large delegations of Brethren front Great Britain and other Commonwealth countries as well as the United' Staten will join in an historic and colourful centennial observance at the Canadian National Exhibition Grounds in Toron- to on July 17th, 18th and 19th, The occasion will mark the hun- dredth anniversary of the founding of the Grand Lodge of Ancient, Free and Accepted Mascns of Canada in the Province of Ontario. J. P. Maher, of Toronto, Chairman of the Centennial Committee, spoke of the "wonderful co-operation" which the members' of his committee _ were receiving from individuals and 'organ- izations alike in planning the forth- coming event, In this connection he referred, among others, to the manage- ment of the C.N.E. in making the fa- cilities of the grounds and buildings available; to the railway and bus com- panies which were alarming special trains and buses to take care of the large influx of visitors, and to the press, radio and T.V.."for their in- valuable assistance." The observance will commence with r. monster rally for an impressive re- ligious service at the C.N.E. grand- stand on Sunday, July 17th, with ses- sions of the Grand Lodge, itself, open- ing on the morning of the 18th in the Coliseum and continuing for two days. The event is one which not •only. focuses attention upon the history of Masonry in Ontario but on the tre- mendous growth of the Order within the past hundred years. Mr. Maher pointed out that in 1855, when Canada's first Grand Lodge was organized, ap- proximately, forty lodges were repre- sented at the meeting with a• member- ship of 1,179 in good standing, Atlast year's session of the same Grand Lodge, reports revealed that there were 592 lodges with a membership of over 130,000. - Whilb Freemasonry was established in Canada before 1702 it was in. that year when the Athol Grand Lodge of• England issued a warrant which auth- orized the formation of a Provincial Grand Lodge. William Jarvis, the secretary -treasurer of the newly ere- tiled colony in Upper Canada, was named Deputy Grand Mester. This lodge functioned until 1817 when 26 lodges acknowledged allegiance to the. Grand Lodge of England. At 'the same time, there were other lodges in both VEGETABLES COOKED MEATS, Stewart's Grocery Blyth - Phone 9 - We Deliver "The Best For Less" n Upper and Lower Canada which gave allegiance to what is known as the Modern Grund Lodge in England as well as the Grnncl Lodges of Scotland and Ireland. Difficulties which arose over the years in conducting necessary business with the Grand Lodge in Eng- land resulted In n strictly Canadian Grand Lecige being organized. It' was in October, 1855, when repre• sentatives of the some forfy lodges as• sembled in Hamilton in a building which still stands at the north -tact corner of Main and John Streets There, the Grand Lodge of Canada way brought into being with William Mer cer Wilson;' Norfolk County judge, as the first Grand Master. The Lodge of Social and Military Virtues of Mon. treat, the oldest on: represented, was given the first posi.on on the new reg- ister. However, it changed its allegiance, to the new Grand Lodge of Quebec when the latter was formed. The old- est lodge now remaining on the register of the Grand Lodge ota Canada is Ni- ngar'it No, 2, Niagara -on -the -Lake, which was constituted in 1792. Historical records shot,/ that three years after the formntion of the Grand' Lodge of Canada, other lodges in On- tario which had remained under the 'jurisdiction of the Athol Grand Lodge of England and the Grand Lodges of Scotland and Ireland decided to become identified with the new Grand Lodge of Canada. As n result 66 Athol (An= stents) lodges alone affiliated with the 63 Canadian lodges. In the case of tWo lodges, which had been warranteJ by the Grand Lodge of Ireland, an agreement was reached whereby they were permitted to continue conferring degrees under the Irish ritual, a prae- tice which is still in effect, With the passing of the years mem- bership in the Masonic Order in other parts of Canada steadily increased and these members felt they should have their own grand lodges, This. led to the formation of the Grand Lodge of Quebec followed by the Grand Lodge of Manitoba, lint Ontario Masons re- tained the name of the Grand Lodge of Canada for sentimental reasons. However, out of respect for the feelings of their Brethern outside their juris- diction, Ontario, while retaining the name the Grand Lodge of Canada, ad- ded the words "In the Provin'1e of On- tario." BELGR AVE The Woman's Association of ICno'.t United Church held a very successful Garden Party on Friday night when a cold meat supper was held in the base- ment of the church and a play "Zeke and Daisy" was presented by the Blue - vale Presbyterian Young People, in the' Forester's Ball, which was .filled, The play was well presented and much enjoyed by the large crowd, Between acts the church male quartette sang, and Clifford Coultes gave readings.
