"I am glad that her husband stood by her; I don't think mine would have . . . had thought I loved his mother, but I came to hate her and hated myself for it." * The nine years that followed • her mother-in-law's coming • have been nine years of sub. • jugation for this couple. The * older woman took over cont- • pletely. She has run their pri. • vate lives, checked their con ings and goings, even planned • the family meals. "All 'my • husband did was to bring in ' the money," his wife cam- * plains. "I have been maid of * all work, cleaning and !atm- " dering whether I felt like it or not; niy mother-in-law, healthy • and active, has never even • made her own bed, She just • had all the fun of running our • lives — and neither of us had * the spunk to prevent it." • As some people grow older, ' they are apt to become self- " centered; like spoiled children, they do as they please with no ' thought of the consequences • Here are two nice people who, ' with every good intent, made the mother welcome. What happened? For nine long years she has robbed then of the • privacy without which no mar• ' riage can flower. She has ' supervised their activities as * though they were teen-a„ers, • she has even chosen their • friends. Without a qualm she • has swept then blindly on her • imperious way, and today is ” probably preening herself nn • how she "helped the children • out." "My husband and I finally faced it — and only a month ago he found a place for her to live with croon tinderstand how arateful 1 am for that, but I still cannot help reproaching myself for not put- ting'my foot down from the very first. We have tried to be gond Christians, and I learned to con- ceal my feelings, but the strain has told on me," "How true it is, as you've of- ten remarked, that even in her own hone a wife cannot compete with her man's mother!" — the wife concludes. • To"WEAK WOMAN": If we • could see ahead, how different• • ly many of us would have * planned our lives! Nine years.. * ago all of your clouds were * rose -lined, and you had not • the heart to recuse your * mother-in-law; don't waste this • new freedom you know today • in regrets, for it is unlikely * your husband would have felt * he could refuse his mother a • home. Now you are both wiser. * The years which lie ahead * will be all the sweeter for the * memory of those trying ones • you lived through.

Athlete's Foot A Summer Dieter Athlete's foot is the popular term for an annoying, itchy, foot condition that develops between the toes. It got this name be- cause athletes seemed especial- ly subject to the complaint. Evidently it's a misnomer. A new study by a public health organization reports that con- trary to public belief, athletes don't get athlete's foot any more than anyone else. It is not usual- ly picked up around the swim- ming pool as commonly sup- posed. Athlete's foot is more pre- valent in summer. II you de- velop a case of athlete's foot during the next few months it will probably be because you've been carrying the fungus caus- ing the infection on your fret for years. Most people pick up the buy; as children, the report adds. It lies dormant just under the skin most of our lives,coming to life when the right condition turns up. When the environment is hot and moist, the fungus Iauch- es a full-scale itching attack -- which is why athlete's foot is so often a summertime problem. The way to avoid an outbreak is to keep your feet as dry•and cool as possible. Here's a preven- tion routine recommended by foot specialists: (1) Wash feet once or twice 'daily, and dry carefully between the toes. It's best to use a corner of the towel as .a blotter. (2) Use a foot powder after bathing to further absorb moi- sture, and sprinkle some.powder in shoes and hosiery as well (3) Shoes made of leather are recommended because 'the fib- rous structure permits air to cir- culate inside the shoe and evap- orate foot moisture rapidly. (4) Never wear the same shoes two days in a row — give them a chance to air out. If your feet perspire excessively, wear white socks, since the 'dye in colored socks may act as an ad- ditional skin irritant, (5) Avoid wearing running shoes for long periods. Perspira- tion won't evaporate through the sole and starched canvas uppers. Far from the madding crowd's ignoble strife, Their sober wishes never learn'd to stray; Along the cool, sequester'd vale of life They kept the noiseless tenor of their way. Thomas Grey. HRONICLES i1NGERrXRM 'OQf Gvert doLtr c, P Cla>,ke Last week as I wrote this' col- umn, we were still waiting for the truck to arrive for transport- ing the cows that Partner had sold. It was almost nine o'clock at night before the big tractor- . trailer pulled into the yard. In about half -an -hour it was on its way again — with all our milking cows and three calves at foot, We put in a long nerve-rack- ing day waiting for that truck to come! And of course Partner had to milk the cows again. But now it all belongs to the past and we have already had the, experience of one week with- out cows. But we are not with- out milk yet — I had plenty stacked away in the refrigera- tor to see us over for a little while. It will seem odd when we start getting our milk in bottles — or cans, or packets — according to what we want. Wednesday morning fate -took an ironic twist. I was out in the kitchen at 6 a.m. — force of habit will continue to get us up early for awhile yet, I ex- pect. Looking out the window what should I see but a number of cattle — all over the garden, of course. In a few minutes Partner, in his pyjamas, was out chasing them away from the house. We phoned our nearest neighbour but he was not the owner of the strays, which we found to lie five two-year-old Holstein heifers. While Partner was getting dressed the heifers wandered down the lane to the road and the last we saw of them, they were running down the highway ahead of two pre- viously fast-moving cars. At noon we were told they were in 'a neighbour's wheat -field — but - we haven't heard yet who those cattle .belonged to, When I saw those heifer I really thought it was a Nemesis on us for selling' the cows! • News travels fast these days. Our cows were still in the stable when a young-fe;low liv- ing twenty-five miles, away came in to see if partner anted to sell the milking machine. He did. A little later we had two offers for the milk -cooler — so that,s going out too. Before long . CAR FINANCING The average .flnanced value of new passenger cars flnanced through acceptance companies last year was. $1,831, some $109 or . 6% more than in 1953 For used passenger cars the figure was $826 versus $838 in 1953, for new commercial vehicles $2,191 versus $2,114, and for used commercial vehicles $856 versus $908. SALLY'S SALLIES "IL's not a Bikini! They're 'old hat' nowt:" -I-shall really believe we are out of. the dairy business! At pre- sent It seems like a wonderful dream from which I fear a rude awakening. It was really splen- did to see Partn9r stepping out for the O.A.C. at Guelph IIast Friday without a worry in the world about what.time he would be home. However, the forces of nature are conniving to keep him em- ployed, There was a strong wind the other day which blew down part of a big chestnut tree in the backyard completely wreck- ing my triple clotheline. So now, Partner has some work to do with buck -saw — plus a clothes- line to fix. There have . also been pails and pails of water to carry to the garden it has been so dry -- but thank goodness we had a beautiful rain last night. Also a thunderstorm — and I could watch the lightning and listen to the roll of the thunder without caring if the power.did go off — insofar as we were concerned. So often storms come up just about chore time and in the past a power -failure was my one fear — forcing Partner to milk by hand—a thing which his crippled,. arthritic hands are no longer capable of doing with- out tremendous effort and con- siderable pain. That 'rain must have been a blessing to the strawberry -grow- • ers. Without it there would prob. ably have been a very short season. Next week I expect to -- be be away so I got ,my berries early. Now thOs are safely stowed away •in the jars. Of course it being so nearly in the season I had to pay top price for my fruit, Now I'm thinking per- haps it pays to buy early. These are such beautiful berries — no waste — so to my surprise I put down thirteen pints from ten boxes of berries. My goodness, I almost forgot to mention that important event that took place last week. The Provincial Election. However, we didn't forget to vote — which is more than -some people can say. At the little country school where we cast our votes there were 164 on the voters list. We - went along about four p.m. and at that time only.54 citizens had been to vote. How Is it possible for so many to care so little for the privileges of a free democ- racy? No doubt there were more out before the polls closed but usually the country people get out early in 'the day. Well, this chronicle is coming from Ginger Farm.' The next one — it my plans hold good — may be written many miles from here — exact location unknown. I have been very busy "laying in supplies for Partner—he says It iooks as if 1 were preparing fpr a siege! However, he will not be alone for long at a time. The family are taking it la turns to come home and set that all is well. So , you'll be hearing from me again nex'. week . , . I hope!

Noel was just on of the 18,000 tax -dodgers. unmasked last year In a drive that has reaped a ilseful £25,000,000 for the Ex-. chequer. Every year the war against tax evasion is growing tougher — and the dodges dreamed up by cheats grow More fantastic, A £7 -a -week Bristol railway- man claimed relief for a wife Mnd family that grew year by year until he had four children. Then he mixed up the dates of Ids children's birthdays and the Income-tax men grew suspi- cious. In reality, he was a bachelor. He went to jail. A schoolteacher claimed re- lief for her widowed mother -- nd was still claiming nine years after her mother's death. A Yorkshire tractor - driver claimed for twins when his first thild was born, He was caught lifter . seven years, Taking this trick to excess, however, two Wily brothers conveniently in. vented a child whenever they had an increase of income. When questioned by the tax inspectors, they even produced forged Irish baptismal certifi- cates to prove it. They ended upat the Old Bailey. Then there was the spinster who listed her two pet cats as her children and the bachelor who listed as bad debts the IIlfts he gave chorus girls. Still . more ingenious was the man who went from job to job and defrauded employers by forging tax adjustment forms. The forms purported to show that be was entitled to small rebates of tax and the employers paid up. Commented a magistrate, "This is the first case I've heard of somebody making a profit out of income tax!" ' • For the harsh truth remains that dodgers pay up — usually plus fines — sooner or later. On one occasion, a tax detective no- ticed an advertisement of an auction sale of jewellery and thought it might be worth while to watch .who bought what. Most of the buyers proved to be professional jewellers, But a business man who spent £1,300 on a necklace promptly had his'` • accounts examined to see If his reported income indicated such lavish spending power, The investigation showed not only that he was trying to fool the revenue but that he was keeping two homes, He readily paid up, with penalties, rather than risk a court case, The tax authorities knew, howeverthat his wife had discovered his in- fiedlity when she reported him for tax -dodging . . ..`a few months too late, When the owner of a small garage had £4,000 in notes stolen from his safe, lax officials pounced -- and asked how he had come to accumulate such a sum when his earnings were given as only £800, In addition to losing X4,000, he had to pay Q500! Airplane Trapping A new hanging rope trap is now operative on three U.S, air- fields in east Anglia. Already one young pilot's Life has been saved by it. Piloting a super- sonic Thunderstreak bomber, Lieutenant Gill Leimbach radio- ed his .ground station that his landing brakes were unservice- able. He had to land at 150 m.p.h., and unless his machine could be checked he must, he knew, overshoot the airstrip, It was certain death for him or the rope. Quickly -the ground staff rig- ged up their nylon safety at- tachment, consisting of a 150 - feet rope, with nylon netting attached, and fastened to each end o! it a 20 -ton naval anchor chain, such as destroyer's nor- mally carry. The pilot was then signalled down, Shortly after striking the runway he flew his under- carriage slap into the rope's middle, was squarely caught and though he dragged the great chains over two hundred yards, he pulled up finally, with his undercarriage smashed, but un- hurt himself, and his precious 'plane designed to carry atomic missiles, intact. First tried out in Korea, this nylon rope trap gives pilots a second chance should the wheels or brakes of their aircraftbe damaged. Tricky as it sounds to be wrapped up in nylon and chains, it is also safe.

Putting The Bees Out of Business Some time ago,• George Van Yahres, a tree surgeon, faced a neat surgical problem: how to restore unsightly and destruc- tive cavities that appeared in the trunks of trees when they lacked certain vitamins. • It was fairly simple to restore the arboreal vitamin counts but plugging the holes was another matter. Van Yahres tried filling them with cement but it cracked each time and the holes wouldn't seal. Eventually he arrived at the solution: he fitted rubber blocks across the cavity, bored a hole from one side and pumped in melted parajn wax. The hot wax filled the cavity and killed any organisms present. The bark grew over the rubber, While the paraffin wax injec- tion may have surprised the trees, it certainly didn't surprise paraffin. This unassuming ma- terial, a by-product in the refin- ing of lubricating oils is one of themost versatile of all petro- leum products and is accustomed to turning up in odd situations. Its use range from making milk cartons leakproof and stop- ping radio -active neutrons to lining beer barrels. You can even bathe a ore elbow in it. Physiotherapists have long been using wax baths to produce a moist heat for treating the hands, ' feet, knees, elbows or shoulders of arthritic or fracture cases. A little mineral oil is added to lower the temperature of the molton wax to about 125 degrees. The patient, for ex - envie, dips his elbow about 12 times to build up a good coat- ing; then it is wrapped in paper and ' towel for 30 minutes to keep in the heat. In the case of arthritis this ' therapy seems to loosen the joints, help blood circulation and relieve pain. Wax even played a role in an attempt to determine the fe-s of unborn children. Paraffin was is useful medically because it is chemically neutral—indeed, "par, affin" is a French derivative of • the Latin parum • (meaning "lit- tle") and affinis (meaning (af- finity"). For this sex determin- ation scheme, the pregnant pa- tient bit on a chunk of wax, thus producing a sample of saliva, This was analyzed for the pres- ence or absence of certain hor- mones, which were supposed to indicate the sex of the corning child. Just who first separated wax from crude oil is hard to estab- lish. It was probably the Scots- man, Dr: James Young. In •1847, RAMBLING THROUGH THE YEARS inton Zither, 84, right, marks the years in rose.coic, ed numerals on his garden wall. Parent plant, for the rambling record of time is in,center of his garden, and Zitner has been guiding the runners through mazes of his floral calendar since 1940. Young found petroleum, in the form of oil shale, in Derbyshire, England. In 1850 he patented his methods of recovering heavy lubricating oils and paraffin. By 1854, paraffin was being used by candlemakers. Large-scale com- mercial production, however, had to wait until 1880, and the in- troduction of horizontal filter presses. Before this, the' refiner put chilled waxy oil in a bag and squeezed it in a hydraulic press to get the oil out; a ted- ious and rather messy business. Wax has always been highly useful to human beings. In fact there are so many applications that it's difficult to understand how the bees kept up with the demand before paraffin wax was developed, The Egyptians often buried waxen images of their gods algng with a dead Egyp- tian. The Greeks gave their kid- dies wax dolls, while the Rom- ans—in the upper tax brackets —preserved wax masks of their ancestors, In the Middle Ages, the mem- ory of departed monarchs and other notables was kept alive by treasuring their wax masks. It may have been about this time that the practice began' of mak- ing a wax mask or doll of an enemy and sticking pins in it. This was not uncommon strategy until about the end of the 17th century and still survives in more primitive regions. In Spain, remarkable work was done in producing wax figures of saints, skillfully colored. A method of metal casting favored by Benvenuto Cellini, the 16th century Italian sculptor, came back into prominence' dur- ing World War II for making precision parts for bombsights, jet engines and orthopedic ap- pliances, This is the "lost wax" process in which a wax pattern , of the finished product is made and then invested with plaster. When the plaster has hardened, the wax is melted by heat, escapes through one, or more tiny openings in the mold, through which molten metal is then poured. When the metal has solidified, the plaster is broken away, leaving the article finished except for the removal of the metal formed in the "sprue", or pouring aperture. This method calls for a new plaster casing for every casting, but is very accurate. The wax used is normally a mixture of paraffin plus carnuba and other vegetable waxes, One of the oldest users ox wax . is) of course, the candlemaker. He has changed a lot since the 13th century, when members of a guild of travelling candlemak- ers went from house to house making "tallow dips". Now con- tinuous molding machines can turn out 1,500 candles an hour, and the wick comes off a reel. Besides the plain (or power failure) candle, :you can buy heart -shaped candles, U-sjlaped candles that burn at~ both ends, candles that look like beer mugs, apples or pears. As an insulating material, par= affin wax is ,.widely used in the manufacture of electric condens- ers. Other ingredients may be added, for there are micro-or- ganisms which attack paraffin - impregnated material. Indeed, there is one bug, known as Pen- icillium glaucum, which can ac- • tually use paraffin as its sole source of energy. Since paraffin is inactive chemically, it must be a fairly tricky problem . to, - digest it; and would undoubtedly be impossible for anything ex- cept, Penicillium glaucom.' Another, paraffin addict was John W. HcMillan, an early pro- ducer and refiner of oil in Pe- trolia. He. died in 1891, after ex- pressing the wish that he be embalmed in wax.

How Sir Winston Relaxes on Canvas If you were privileged to walk into Sir Winston Church- ill's study at. Chartwell, his Kent home, you would see adorning the walls many pictures he has ,painted himself. For this year he completes forty years as an amateur painter. Mr, Menzies, ,the Australian Premier, was in the study a little while ago admiring the paintings, some of which have been shown at the Royal Acade- my. Sir Winston asked him to choose one to take back to Aus- tralia. He chose a study of fishing smacks with a Moroccan setting • painted at Marrakesh. The pic- ture has since been flown to Australia — the first picture by Sir Winston to be seen there. It measures four feet by three feet in its frame. Sir Winston has had very little time for painting lately but he has always taken his art seriously. He was a pupil of the ]ate Sir •John Lavery and also received lessons from Sir Wil- liam Nicholson. Whenever .Sir Winston sub- mits a picture • to • the Royal Academy it is unsigned and is sent under a pseudonym. Two landscapes once went under the name of "Mr. 'Winter" and .these paintings were duly .hung. "Just to paint is great fun," • Sir Winston once said. "Painting is complete as a distraction. I know of nothing which, without exauhsting the body, more en- - tirely absorbs the mnd." • HELP WANTED ADVENTUROUS MEN' You are want. ed for all kinds of high -paying work on 164, million -dollar Canadian build. ing projects, including great St. Law. ranee Seaway, Directory, with map, sent upon application, $1 postpaid, Canadian Construction n.

Dainty pancakes rolled around a filling, make an unusual main dish for special luncheons or sup- pers, For this purpose, you can use your favorite pancake recipe, or make the base from a recipe that requires very little flour, just enough to hold the eggs to- gether. Both types of pancake are baked on a griddle and fold- ed around a rich filling. A sauce to pour over them completes this dish. CHICKEN PANCAKES IMPERIAL 3 eggs 1 teaspoon salt Ve cup milk 2 tablespoons flour Fat for frying Beat eggs with salt, milk, and flour until smooth. Pour 2 table- spoons batter into heated, lightly greased skillet to form a pancake 7 inches in diameter. Cook over medium heat to a light brown on one side only (pancakes are not turned.) Continue making pan- cakes, placing each, brown side down, on moisture -proof wrap or clean towel. GRAVY AND FILLING 1 tablespoon butter or chicken fat 1 tablespoon flour ',s teaspoon each, mace and paprika 1 cup milk or chicken broth Salt and pepper to taste 2 cups finely chopped cooked chicken I can crated or crumbled Cheddar cheese Tv make gravy; melt the fat over low heat; blend in flour, mace, and paprika, Add milk or chicken broth all at once, stir- ring constantly until uniformly thickened and bubbly. Add salt and pepper. Remove from heat. For filling; add enough gravy to moisten chicken.` Spread about '/i cup of the mixture on each pancake. Roll tightly, Place in shallow baking dish, Pour rest of gravy over rolled pancakes, and sprinkle cheese on top.

Yet a crack British Navy crew can speed over such a choppy course in less than ten minutes. The Navy's annual pulling regattas are the chief sporting event of each fleet's summer cruise. Everyone takes part, from the youngest rating to the oldest officer, and the boats used range from a fifteen -foot skiff dinghy to the ten -tori launch carried in • a battleship and known to all as "Jumbo," Racing crews are formed from seamen, engine -room ratings, artificers, artisahs, w r it e r s, cooks, stewards and Royal Ma- rines. The Marine band make up their own crew, with the bandmaster wielding the tiller instead of the baton. There is a special race for "veterans" who, in the Navy, are men aged thirty-five and over, In the small ships' regatta there is even a race for captains. Training starts at least six weeks beforehand, and the crews practise early and late. Excite- ment grows intense as the re- - gatta date draws near, and rival ships note each other's form with the jealousy of Derby trainers. On the day of the event the fleet anchors in two lines a- breast, and the course is marked o u t in between. Spectators clamber to every vantage point in their ships, and as many en- thusiasts who can find room crowd into the ships' motor boats. These are the "chucking - up" parties who cruise behind their favourites cheering them down the course. The winning post is abreast the flagship, from the bridge of which the results of. each race are signalled. There is no attempt at style in a Navy regatta. By contrast with the Varsity boat race the rowing is jerky and the strokes chopped. For the boats are heavy and deep in the .keel, with a beam of nearly six feet. The stretchers against which the oarsmen's feet are braced are just above the bottom boards, and the thwarts fixed and un- yielding. The boats must be just as they are on service with all fittings intact. Sole concession is that the oars may be cut or shaved to suit individual taste, Even so, as these are made of either ash or fir and measure fifteen to' .seventeen feet in length, they are no light weight. Yet it is not infrequent for an oar to snap off in the middle of a race. At• one time when this happened the luckless oarsman was required to plunge over- board and thus lighten the boat of his weight. Nowadays a spare oar is carried. Before the first World War the rules covering the condition of boats were less strict, and elab- orate grooming preparations were customary. It was the aim of every ship to procure a cutter built in the dockyards at Malta or Hong Kong since these were constructed of lighter woods. Every inch of paint was care- fully scraped off and the planks sandpapered to a velvet y smoothness. Then several gal- lons of white of egg were ap- plied. This special coating was said to reduce friction and aid the boat to skim over the sur- face. In these regattas points are • awarded to all boats completing, the course. Cups, trophies and other prizes are competed for, and the ship gaining the highest number of points wins a, large silver cock. 'This is a relic from older times when competing crews actually carried a live cock with them. The bird was stowed out of sight until one of the boats managed to get ahead of her rivals. Then he was brought out and planted on the bow thwart to crow defiance all the way down the course. The system of awarding points to competing crews was once explained to a party of visiting Russian naval officers in Tsarist days. "Do you have the same system in your Navy?" the Rus- sian admiral was asked. "But, yes," the brasshat beam- ed. "In our regattas the winning crew receives fifty lashes per man, the second 'crew one hun- dred lashes, and the third crew —Siberia! Once when 'rivalry between two crack ships of the Home Fleet, whose crews hailed "re- spectively from the Portsmouth and Chatham port divisions, had been particularly intense, the Portsmouth ship's boats scraped home to victory 'by a slender margin, Circling in their drifter round their deefated rival the Ports- mouth men let themselves go with hurricanes of coekcrows: On the forecastle of the Chatham ship lay a consignment of bagged potatoes awaiting stowage. Tempted' by the proximity of. the drifter, a Chatham man sud- denly seized a handful of pota- toes and hurled them at his gloating rivals, In a trice his mates followed his example; and salvoes of spuds showered among the crowing sailors. Swiftly recovering, the Ports- mouth men broke open a crate of new holystones (sandstone used for scouring decks) and hotly returned their enemies' fire. For several minutes the air was . thick with flying potatoes and holystones until the drifter's helmsmlin managed to steer-- his teerhis craft out of range, On another occasion during an "all -comers' " race the umpires were astounded to see a battle- ship's launch streaking along at a spanking pace, her oars flash- ing up and down like sema- phores. Suddenly the clumsy "Jumbo" sheered sideways off the course, her oarsmen tumb- ling over like ninepins. Only then did the solution dawn on the mystified officials. The crew had secretly fastened a practice torpedo to the bottom of their boat. All went well un- til the rudders of the "tinfish" jammed and carried the launch out of the race. Whales Commit Mass Suicide Sixty-three pilot whale s, many of them " young calves, apparently committed mass sui- cide recently on this rocky shore of the island of Westray in, the Orkneys. This is the second time in five years that such a large number of these creatures have chosen to dash themselves to death in this part of Britain, , In 1950 no fewer than 100 pilot whales were found dead and dying along the codst of Stronsay Island, The sea was red with their lacerated bodies among the sharp rocks. Although they generally haunt the northern waters around Britain, whales have been found stranded as far south as Kent, Dorset, Devon and Cornwall, In 1944 a herd of ninety were found dying on the • coast of Wexford in Ireland, Not long ago a 'school of. more than 500 pilot whales. entered the harbour at Lerwick •in the . Shetlands, So dense were they that they could not dive with- out colliding, Baffled scientists are reluctant to believe that whales deliberate- ly " commit suicide.- For ' the whale, they shy, is not a stupid creature. They rate its intel- ligence between that of a dog and, a chimpanzee. Whales travel in herds under the leadership of an experi- enced bull. Experts say that the • apparent mass suicide of a whole herd is really the result of accidental.straniiing, Wean hunting for food inehorc th,se huge creatures sometimes Be- come trapped on a falling As their bodies are ova. in shape, with the blue/hole, or nostril, on top, they are unable to remain upright in shallow) water and fall over Sideways.

Blame You !Niure.s On The Grey Skies Can our aches and pains, our good and bad mooch; and our liability to accidents be blamed on the weather? That is , what doctors and weather experts in Germane- are trying to find out: They hope soon to answer the questions: Does an aching joint or a tender corn really spell rain? How many of our h.ealth beliefs about the weather are superstition and how many fact? Take, for instance, the grim 'old 'saying that "a green Cr-_ ist- mas makes a fat churchyard." Is it really true that mild win- ter weather is unhealthy? Scientists have already de- cided that a blustery, rainy, southwest" wind is healthy in winter and that the dry, piers= ing, east wind is not healthy in winter or spring. An American doctor declares that cold weather,inevitably means a shorter lifewhile hot weather often causes people to live to a ripe old age, Nearly all scientists agree that fog and smog are bad for us and that cold, damp air is nearly as bad. They also agree that over- exposure to continued sunshine may be injurious. One points out that the ef- fects of the Weather on the ner- vous system arae well mac teed. Overseas visitors to Britain- who are accustomed to their native bright skies often become irri table 'and melancholy after a prolonged spell of dull, British weather with ',grey `skies, he states.

Yeomans fend , his wife Rita walked over "their fire -blackened acres seek Ing the solution to a formidable problem. Their new house was party burnt, the fences were gone, and the stock had disap- peared, driven before the thrust, of the great bushfire. The 'land Itself stood valued at about 24 cents an acre. • • .As Rita Yeomans has told in . the foreword to her husband's evidely acclaimed book, "The I{eyline Plan," which has cap-. tured the interest of thousands of Australian farmers, Mr. Yeo- mans was a man who had made a long and intensive study of land problems from a profes- sion�l engineering background. • • "Nevallan," the run-down, burnt-out farm, was really a sideline to a busy life filled with larger professional and business interests. But the "sideline" turned into "Keyline" and sky- rocketed this Australian engi- neer to the forefront among re- search scientists in agricultural end 'soil management techniques. It is doubtful whether the Yeomans realized that in their decision to rebuild "Nevallan," they would evolve one of the turning points in Australian agriculture and perhaps, as time may yet show, in world agricul- ture, . •. .As Mr;. Yeomans tells it, her husband began marshaling his ideas, tramping across Nevallan in •the middle of the night dur- ing heavy rain, observing the ef- fect of the rain on the soil, ex- perimenting here, experimenting there, oblivious to all else, visu- alizing long-term effects • and making notes on short-term ones observed.- $ • It :ost, money and took much time but he persisted in face of pessimistic opinions, firm in his own view that this type of poor, steep country was a worthwhile proposition and that a payable .solution to its problems wis O5,1 TOUR - Burma's anti-Com- munist Prime Minister U Nu is on a world tour which when finished, will have taken him to Israel, Yugoslavia, Great Bri- ' ¶ctrl, Japan and the "United much more important than others realized. • • • The wide acceptance of Key - line farming is its own proof - that whet ,Percival Yeomans found was not only to his own profit, but also a system that all farmers everywhere could un- derstand and use. Moreover, this plan proved to be cheap and simple to operate, and' could be brought to production in a com- paratively short time, yielding results in a season or two, • * • Soil fertility and water_distri- bution are the basis for Keyline farming. Many types of fertile soil are more naturally resistant than worn, leached soils to ero- sion. Fertile soils tend to stay put except in extreme topogra- phical conditions. It is only when their level of fertility has been drastically reduced that they begin to move. * * * Keyline farming greatly ac- celerates those processes which occur naturally in the building of fertile soils. It is therefore essentially a soil building tech- nique which aims broadly to do two things: (1) conserve rainfall right where it falls; (2) release the vast store of fertility building materials which exist below the top three inches or so of soil on which farmers gen- erally depend for results. * * • On this vital aspect, Mr. Yeo- mans has said: "There is little evidence anywhere in nature to support the `take and put' theory - of farming where farmers are taught to 'put back into the soil each year what they 'take out' in crops. "So much of what is taken out is composed of materials that are available in unlimited sup- ply from the sun, air, and moi- sture- moisture alone requiring conservation - that if farmers cease to `mine' the top inches of soil and farm the land, little 'if anything else need be put back. "Fertilizers should be used when ' they are necessary, but they are, rarely the 'first' need. This is true of most of our farm- ing and grazing lands. "Corrective cultivation is a means of .progressively improv- ing soil structure and soil fertili- ty, thereby developing a greater depth of fertile soil. Better crop production is incidental to the process." • • In Keyline farming, Mr. Yeo - mons discovered the basic im- portance to the entire farm of finding and ^ working from the Keyline, which practically every farm possesses. This Keyline is the line drawn through the farm, sometimes by the planting of a belt 'of trees, which marks the division where the higher land begins to give way to the lower as, for ex- ample, across a valley. o • * t Tillage is parallel to this Key - line in fairly tight rows below. it until the boundary is reached. It is also parallel above' it but not so loosely spaced because of the progressively steeper-• nature of the land. When rain falls on a valley, it naturally concentrates in .the floor throughout the entire rength to form a stream. Key - line cultivation putsa barrier across this line of concentration, It drifts , the water away from its -center of gravity on the vale 9.

Hair Is your hair naturally curly? If so, then you are the envy of many women. On the other hand, perhaps you are one of the millions who derive their hair curl by artificial means. Whatever your lot, most wo- men seem to believe that curled or waved hair is more becom- ing+ even though nature might have deemed otherwise. And, of course, hair which has some curl in it offers so much more scope for ringing the changes with re- gard to styles. Women nowadays are perhaps• hair -conscious as never before. Doubtless this is influnced by the fact that waves and curls can be induced into hair by arti- ficial means; and cheaply, too, -since in its latest machineless' _.. form, a permanent wave can be applied at the cost of only a few shillings. These days "permed" hair need not look dry, frizzy and artificial for the first month or so. Thanks to the cold or machineless "perm" it is possible to get a very natural and- lasting effect which follows today's trend for waved rather than tightly curled hair. For this admirable -aid- to gla- mour, women have to thank the sheep, Not many people realize that research on the structure of wool fibres led to the invention of cold permanent waving. This, by the way,' came accidentally after some thirty years of scien- tific study on various aspects of wool. This discovery is not so aston- ishing when one is aware that sheep's wool and 'human hair are chemically almost alike. For that reason, the results of chem- ical research on wool can often be applied to human hair. The sheep, therefore, is an obvious ally of the hair -dresser, for far more money and time are devot- et to research on Wool than on human hair. But how does the cold "perm" work? Both hair and wool have a complex structure, Although there still remains much to xe- plore, the basic principles of the .fundahtental build-up are now established. These fibres are composed of minute particles or molecules, each of -which consists of long chains of atoms of a spring-like structure, linked to- gether lengthwise by means of bridges or bonds at intervals. r ley floor, out ,along the sides, thus ensuring an even distribu- tion,* easily absorbed by the soil • and minus any capacity to erode. • • • No special and costly drain- age systems are ,needed in this distribution .pattern. All that is needed: is a controlled deep 111- 1age, parallel to the Keyline, using a chisel plow 'outfit, which will merge the subsoil horizons, overcome compaction, and al- low air and moisture to pene- trate and 'release the fertility building ,materials in the lower. depths, • • • That Keyline farming pays off, at least under some - condi- tions, is attested by the amazing- ly lush and fertile condition of- Nevallan's. once 'worthless and burnt-out acres. In, wool this is an asset, for it means that articles of wool cloth- ing will retain their shape and the pile of wool carpeting will spring back after being crushed by feet or furniture. Yet when it comes to curling hair, it is a disadvantage. It is quite easy to 'twist a strand of hair round your ringer because of the chair -like struc- ture of the fibres, But when you release it, the fibre springs hack to its original position. This is due to the resilience of the inter- - linked. chains. In short, when the hair fibre is curled, the "springs" bend and stretch to accommodate to the new posi- tion. At the same time, strains are set up within the fibre and the chains try to slip past each other. The bridges, however, stop the chains from sliding. To enable wool or hair to be- come permanently curled, there- fore, it is necessary to break down the bridge structures and allow the chains, of atoms to slip past each other; this permits the molecules to rearrange them- selves with the fibre in its new curled form, Working on wool, scientists found that by certain chemical action they could modify or re- move these bridges, This was done not for the sake 'of perma- nent waving but to _explain the basic properties of wool fibre or to try and produce wool with modified properties for special purposes; also because wool is "set" in the finishing of cloth, just as hair is set by she coif- feuse. . Scientists proved that a fibre with , some 'of its inter -chain bridges broken could be bent and stretched much more easily than an untreated fibre. While this process yielded advantage- ous results in wool if applied to human hair it would permit it to curl• more easily, , but unless the bridges - were rebuilt the curled effect would not be last- ing -because the hair would be too limp. - What the scientists next had to discover was some- means of breaking down the bridges fol- lowed by a. second treatment to join the chains together again while the hair is.still-curled, This is exactly , what happens during the cotirse of permanent- ly waving hair, The hair is soak- " .ed in a solution technically call- ed ammonium . thioglycollate, which creaks one type of inter- , chain bridge known as the di- sulphide bend. Incidentally, thi- oglycollic'acid is one of the sub- stances used in research :work on the chemical 'modification of wool. After the bond -breaking sola-. . tlon has had time to act, and the ' chains . have settled down - in their new place, it is necessary to re -unite the chains. A second solution achieves this 'by slowing down the process of the first solution and rebuilding new , bridges, thus forcing the 'hair to remain in its curled position. The solution is known as a "neutral iter" and is usually of potassium bromate, More , recently, et' cold wave process, has been developed using only one solution. The first ef- fect'of the solution _is to break, the bridges as before, but it con - 4 SCnoa LESSON lt. Barclay Warren, B.A., B.D. Signs of National Decay Jeremiah 22:1-9, 24-25 Memory Selections; Woe unto him that bulldeth his house by unrightensness, and his chamb- ers by wrong; that useth his neighbour's service without wages, and giveth hien not for his work. Jeremiah 22:13. Israel, the northern kingdom had been taken captive by the Assyhians. Judah, the southern kingdom showed signs of moral decay, Jeremiah, often called the 'weeping prophet!' triad to forestall Judah's destruction. He exhorted the king, "Execute ye judgment and righteousness, and deliver the spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor; and do no work, do no violence to the stranger, the fatherless, nor the widow, neither 'shed innocent blood in this place," But JehoIa- kim paid no heed. He planned to build himself a wide house in the most luxurious style and compel men to work without wages in carrying his project through. Jeremiah didn't give up. He dictcted his message of warning to Baruch, the scribe, who wrote it upon a scroll. Baruch read it in the temple and then to the princess on their request. They were filled with fear and told the king. He ordered one of his scribes to read it before him, from God in utter contempt. With his penkife he cut off ,the pieces as they were read and cast them into the :.fireplace. But this did not stop God's mes- sage. Jeremiah promptly dictat- ed a second version of it in which lie repeated all he had said before and in addition "many like words." The welfare of a nation is not. indicated by its national in- come but by its attitude toward God's revelation through the Bible. There are still leaders - and some of them are in the church, who are cutting out those portions of Scripture which o.°end their taste.
