Was It A Curse
Or Coincidence?
His real name was Rodolpho
d'Antonguolla, He was an Itali-
an immigrant to the U.S.A. who
at one time worked as a dish-
washer and found his way into
police records as a petty
racketeer,
• He, is rememb rtd to -day as
Rudolph Vaten no; i a ,t, c 1.
through the world as the per-
fect lover in the era of the si-
lent screen.
He became a dancing partner,
a chorus boy, a, Hollywood ex-
tra; and for his part in the
film that brought him fame he
thought himself well paid at
$15 a day.
When he died, aged thirty-
one, nearly thirty years ago,
some 100 people were injured
in hysterical riots at the funer-
al parlour. Because of the fear
that harm might be done, a wax
effigy, it is rumoured, was sub-
stituted for the corpse.
Now, amid the legends that
have gathered around Valenti -
no's name, one strange story
survive and seems to have a
sinister and murderous life of
its own.
Addicted to superstitious bau-
bles, he always wore a platinum
slave bracelet on his wrist and
one day noticed in the window
of a San Francisco trinket shop
a ring that closely matched it.
With a semi-precious stone sur-
rounded by beaten silver of fa-
miliar Oriental pattern, the ring
exerted a peculiar facsination
on the sleek -haired star of the
silent days.
The shopman told him it was
a lucky ring that had brought
fortune and fame, But he
warned him that the ring might
prove equally unlucky and al-
so had a record of murder and
assault.
This gimmick undoubtedly put
up the price — for no doubt the
shopman recognized his custom-
er as Valentino, then at the
height of his fame. He bought
the ring and wore it in 'his next
film, "The Young Rajah," and
the movie was such an appal-
ling flop that it resulted in a
two-year absence from the
screen for him.•
He scarcely wore the ring
again until he used it as a cos-
tume prop for "The Son of the
Sheik." This was to prove the
last picture he ever made.
Three weeks after he finished
it he went to New York for a
holiday — and he was wearing
the ring when he suffered an
acute attack of appendicitis
from which he subsequently
died.
Weeping hysterically, film
star Pole Negri collapsed by the
coffin, She chose the ring as a
keepsake from among Valen-
tino's personal trinkets, vowing
she would cherish it until they
met again.
There followed for Polo a
period of ill -health and mis-
fortune that threatened her
fame in the movie firmament.
But she met a Valentino, soon-
er than she thought
Or at least she met Russ Co-
lombo, who was almost the
dead film star's double. Russ,
too, was winning the feminine
hearts of America, running neck
and neck with Bing Crosby
and Rudy Vallee in the crooner
stakes, And when Pola was in-
troduced to him in person it
was with a thrill of recognition
that she saw another Valen-
tino.
They were teamed together in
picture work and the actress
tried to take the newcomer
under her wing, coaching him
through the Hollywood maze
She gave him Rudolph's ring
with the remark, "From one
Valentino lc another" , , . but
the jinx was listening!
That same week Russ Colom-
bo was killed in a motoring ac-
cident. Again the morbid
crowds attempted to make a
Valentino holiday out of his
funeral. Again Pola wept,
Buss's cousin gave the ring to
the man whom he knew had
been ,.ii,uss's best friend, the
singer' Toe Casino. He, too, was
in his heyday of popularity —
and taking no chances on the
ring's evil reputation.
Ins ead, he kept it under
glass 'on his mantelpiece as a
memento of his dead friend. At
one time he was pressed to do-
nate the ring to a museum of
Valentino relics, but Joe Ca-
sino refused, insisting that he
treasured it on sentimental
grounds,
Perhaps with the passing of
time the aura of wickedness
around the ring became for-
gotten. He wore the ring and a
week later, ,with the tragic
circlet on his finger, he was
killed by a truck.
The newspapers were imme-
diaely hot on the trail of the
tragic coincidence, Joe's bro-
ther asserted that if only Joe
had given the ring away he
would have been alive and well.
But he decided that he could
not be intimidated by a ghost
and at last he wore the ring.
Nothing happened,
The ring was lent to a collec-
tor of Valentino relics. He, too,
seems to have escaped un-
scathed. But one night the Los
Angeles police shot and killed a
burglar named James Willis—
and the prized Valentino ring r
was found in Itis loot,
A curse—or coincidence?
It was noted that all the act-
or's exotic costumes, which
were carefully stored by a mo-
vie studio for years, brought
nothing but bad luck to actors
who wanted them for pictures
of their own.
Then Hollywood producer
Edward Small decided to make
a film based on Valentino's life.
His choice was Jack Dunn,
formerly the skating partner to
ice star Sonja Henze.
Like Russ Colombo, Jack Dunn
bore an astonishing resemblance
to Valentino. To show just how
great that resemblance was, he
dressed up in Valentino's clothes
for a film test .. , and wore the
hoodoo ring.
He was only twenty-one years
old, and ten days later he died of
a Jere blood disease called tula-
remia. This is a disease of rabbits
but infection can be spread into
the hands by persons skinning
rabbits.. With this clue, scientists
examined the jinx ring , . , but it
bore no tularemic traces.
Jack Dunn was the last man to
wear the Valentino ring. After
the tragedy it was rushed out of
sight.
But still there was a sequel, It
came in a daring daylight raid
on a bank in Los Angeles when
the thieves succeeded in getting
away with a record $200,000 haul.
Three people were injured to
a subsequent shooting affray
when two df the hold-up gang
were caught. The ringleader, Al-
fred Hahn, was ultimately jailed
for life.
He couldn't hope to be lucky.
For among the valuables stored
in the bank's safe deposit was
the Valentino ring.
FLYING SNAKE
The Pichaquate is a light
green snake that inhabits the
wild Yaqui Indian country of
Sonora, Mexico. The venomous
reptile 'lives in trees and sails
through the, air like a flying
squirrel. The little snake is not
equipped with wings ,but flat-
tens itself out like a ribbo.t be.
fore sailing from one tree to
another. The reptile has a hook
or fang on the .end of its tail
resembling the stinger of a
scorpion,
Yaqui Indians, when traveling
through that part of their coun-
try, carry a short stick with
which to ward off the snake.
The Indians ' travel single file
along the narrow paths and when
a snake is sighted sailing
through the air, they pass the
word down the line by shout-
ing "Pichaquate."
The Island That
Wasn't There
Even to enter the harbour at
Deception Island was an eerie
experience. I was an able sea -
Irian on the Argentine cutter
"Bejar" whose patrol auty ex-
tended from St. Cruz, in South
Argentina, down to the. South
Shetland Islands in the Ant-
arctic.
It was late September when
we put into the mysterious har-
bour, which was entered
through a gap between two.
pinnacle mountains, Two ran-
ges extended from them, like
pincers, These ranges were
covered with snow right down
to within six feet of the beaches.
"Why does the snow end like
that -so abruptly?" I asked Ro-
jez, the bosun,
"Look at the beaches," he ex-
plained. "They are made up of
volcanic ash. Dig a foot down
and you'll blir,er your hand."
The harbour was filled with
ice drifts, and we picked our
way through them to a rickety
pier which is sometimes used
as a base for whaling ships.
"But they never stayy long,"
said Rojez. "Nobody does.
They say it would take only a
small earthquake to collapse
those two mountain peaks,
and if they did collapse we'd be
caught in the middle and
crushed to death," As he spoke •
the two pinnacles seemed to
totter in the sky.
"Deception Island," Rojez
added, "is well -named. The
whaling men say that some-
times it's not here, It vanishes
one year and reappears' the
next."
There certainly seemed to be
something mysterious • about
the island. It just didn't stand
still. I said there was drift ice
in the harbour when we steam-
ed in. Two hours later there
wasn't one piece of ice there.
The tide rushed in and out
with the swiftness of a mill run.
The beaches lengthened and
everywhere steam rose from
them. Through the vapour the
mountains seemed to tremble
and waver, Ghostly music
followed the wind out ^ the
ravines and into the harbour.
1 had been detailed with two
others, Able Seamen Ruiz and
Mora, to take the ship's gig and
catch some fish outside the
harbour for the eevning meal,
writes Roderick Bentz in "An-
swers."
It was noon when we rowed
away from the ship. We rowed
about three miles then threw
our lines overboard.
By late afternoon the gig was
filled tothe gunwales with our
catch , Time had gone swiftly
as we hauled in the fish, and
we had been too busy to notice
our drift. At last we called it
a day and got ready to r'art,
back to Deception Island.
Mora and I grabbed the oars
and Ruiz went , to - the stern and
took the tiller, We started pull-
ing, and then I heard Ruiz give
a startled gasp. "Look," he said
in an awed voice, "Where in
heaven's name Is the island?".
I looked around. I scanned
every inch of the horizon
through the 360 degrees of the
compass. There was nothing on
the horizon, no island, ,:othing
at all,
Ruiz crossed himself, Mora
sat transfixed, just staring at
nothing. "We are cursed." he
said,
We then tried -,'to find out
how the island, which an hour
beforehand loo nett large and
safe in the distance, had
vanished while we were fishing.
We discussed it fervently but
were baffled.
Night came and it got colder.
September is springtime in the
Antartic, but it is always cold.
Our seamen's jackets were no
proof against it and I :mild
hear the fish crackle, freezing
already, as I shifted my feet. It
was useless to try to sleep.
If nothing happened by morn-
ing, it was decir1ed, we r'ould
start to row towards the many
uncharted islands spreading out
from the South Shetland group.
I remembered what Rojez had
said about the island appearing
and disappearing. "Maybe we'll
see the island again in the
morning," I said,
I began to feel uneasy about
Mora. He was an Argentinian
from Buenos Aires, This was
his first trip, and, in fact, the
first time he had ever left
his native city during the
whole of his life.
Obviously he was badly
frightened by what had hap-
pened, and had now begun to
sing in a cracked voice. Once
Rulz slapped him to shock away
his hysteria but Mora didn't
even notice it.
"He's going crazy," said Ruiz,
and I agreed. Mora kept at it,
louder and louder, and finally
many hours later when it was
near morning, he gave a great
cry, plunged over the side of
the gig and disappeared.
Morning came at last. Care-
fully we scanned the horizon.
There was nothing in sight.
We rowed for some time. At
least we managed to get our-
selves warm again. 1 held the
bow oar and Ruiz was in the
stern, our backs to the bow it-
self. He turned to say something
to me. Suddenly his face went
white,
"Lookl" he gasped. "Ahead
of usl"
I turned and saw it, A ship
began to emerge into sight.
First the bow, then the mid -
ships, and finally the whole
vessel. It was like an appari-
tion materializing. There was
no fog out of which it could
emerge, yet it just seemed to
appear slowly out of ,towhe"e
It was the "Bejar."
The skipper came clown
and asked us what had hap-
pened. We told hitt, ,ust as I
have recorded it here.
"The island disappeared?" he
said, and he hit his lip and
looked at us suspiciously once
again. "Come up on deck," he
said at last.
• We followed him, and then
he pointed off the stern quarter,
and I could see the two
mysterious pinnacle'. of
mountains anr' the ranges ex-
tending from them. 1 rubbed
my eyes, "It's unbelievable," i
said, "but 1 tell y' u that's
exactly what happenr,d•1I:e is-
land disappeared."
A little lated Rojez, the
ship's bo'sun, spoke to me.
"I heard your story," he said,
"and frankly 1 can quite believe
it. Dnn't assume that you've
merely lost your mind and were
imagining IF ►gs ct t there.
They say that if you approach
the island i om a .ertain angle
you won't sen a thing, It's like
the shimmer set up in the desert
when you see a mirage. The
horizon just seems to continue
and there's n island visible."

All things must end some-
time, even this, in many parts of
Canada, t h e coldest winter in
three-quarters of a century, Very
shortly now we can expect to
limber up muscles and get out
into the sunshine and the gar-
den, But before we take up the
rake, there is a pleasant inter-
lude before the fire with a good
seed catalogue and perhaps a
pencil and a sheet or two of
paper,
Planning a garden, of coursI ,
is not absolutely necessary, Some
lucky people, with a particular.
ly green thumb, perhaps can get
along without any planning at
all, But for the average persons,
some planning ahead is recom•
mended by the experts and this
preliminary planning can be a
very pleasant way of putting in
the time, It will also repay many
times in a much better garden,
more beautiful, and more use-
ful and one that requires much
less effort,
Keep It Shnple
Only an expert should attempt
a formal garden and most of the
experts are too wise to try. Stiff
rows and square beds, under very
rare conditions, may make an
impressive show but if carried
out in the small home garden,
at best, they look awkward and
out of place. It is far better to
have the garden layout simple
and infor►nal with clumps rather
than straight rows, a n d wavy
edged beds with lots of variety.
For the centre and fore-
ground nothing is better than a
good lawn. On city lots this may
only be a few square yards. The
grass however sets off the whole
layout and it should lead up to
the flower garden with possibly
shrubs or trees or a vine.covered
trellis or f e n c e in the back-
ground, or as a division between
say a kitchen garden plot at the
rear,
Shrubs and flower borders may
he used to line driveways and
fences, Against the house tiself,
but at least a foot or so in front,
one can plant groups of shrubs
or taller flowers, A winding path,
disapearing behind shrubbery or
trees, will add attraction.
In the flower garden or border
the informal or clump planting is
continued, Rather than setting
out in rigid rows, one should
plant groups of various flowers
with the little things like alys-
sum, dwarf nasturtiums, lobelias
and so ^n, in front, taller zin-
nias, petunias, asters towards
the centre and really tall flowers
such as cosmos, hollyhocks, mari-
golds and delphiniums at the
rear.
'trough Ones First
Most conveniently growing
things in. Canada divide them-
selves into three main groups.
There are the hardy types that
cannot be planted too early, pro-
vided of course, the soil is ready
and fit to work, These are not
afraid of frost. Next come the
biggest group of all, the semi -
hardy. They will stand a little
frost but they do not like it and
it is best not to sow or set out
unti: we are almost certain that
spring has really arrived. In the
third category are the softies,
plants, seeds, roots or bulbs that
will not stand frost at all. Noth-
ing is gained by putting these
things In the ground until the
soil is really warm and summer
is just around the corner,
At this season, of course, we
need concern ourselves only with
the first and extremely hardy
group of plantings, In the warm-
er parts of Canada we can plant
these before the end of March.
Of course we must wait until the
frost is out and the mud has

The biggest and in many ways
the most important crop in the
world is grass.
About two-thirds of the world's
farmland is under grass, and the
roots of this massive crop are
literally the grass roots of the
world's main food supply and a
major means for overcoming its
hunger.

According to Lord Boyd -Orr,
first director general of the Unit-
ed Nations Food and Agricultur-
al Organization, it would take
$12,000,000,000 to relieve hunger
in the world. In nonfinancial
terms this means there is no real
international food surplus des-

Lord Boyd -Orr, "upon whether

apply great scientific powers to
relieve !hunger,"
Apart from the purely politi-

food potential.
• • -
One of the most notable ad-
vances on the world grassland
front was made recently by a
young university student work-
ing in Australia, Actually, Ray
Marquez hails from the Philip-
pines and went to Australia on
a United Nations Educational,
Social and Cultural Organization
scholarship under the Colombo
Plan,
• -
In' association with the dean
of the faculty of agriculture in
the University of Sydney and an
associate professor, Mr. Marquez
became deeply interested in the
problem of a two -million -acre
wasteland in midwest N c w
South Wales, the Pilliga Scrub
country, where a handful of
tough battlers defied the wilder-
ness and the soil deficiencies
which were its chief weapons.
* • *
With the cooperation of some
of these pioneers, Mr. Marquez
went to work on the problem,
He faced a light, highly acid soil,
acutely deficient in nitrogen and
phosphate and comprising some-
times 89 per cent sand, Some
people called it "desert."
Working steadily, Mr. Marquez
devised a grass development
technique which produced what
the locals termed "startling" re-
sults, He had, achieved what was
thought to bimpossible, that is,

they vanished, never again to
be seen,
When Patrick McMurty, a
young Irishman, joined the
police force in the district and
learned about the lake, he de-
cided to ph'otogr'aph it and to
send some pictures home.
He was accompanied by a
youth, and neither was ever
seen again after they set out
to walk to the lake seven miles
from where they were forced
to park their car.
Another odd thing is that
Lake Fundudzi is fed by the
Mutali and other rivers at the
rate of 3,000,000 gallons of wat-
er an hour, but there is no vis-
ible outlet to the lake, The lake
rises and falls with tides just
like the ocean, but no one has
ever been able to account for
this. Neither do we know where
the overflow of water.goes,
Last year two adventurous
men, Ronald Gregory and Tom-
my Brown - Hamilton, went
shooting in the lake area. It
was sticky hot and Gregory de-
cided against the advice of Ham-
ilton - Brown to have a quick
dip.
Gregory was swimming in a
shallow part of the lake, no more
than ten feet from the shore
when he gave a shout, Hamil-
ton - Brown saw him struggling
as if in the grip of some great
underwater creature and has-
tily threw a rope to him.
Gregory gripped the rope and
Hamilton - Brown began to
drag hien out, but some force
was holding Gregory back as if
he Were glued to a rock in the
wa ter.
Gradually Hamilton - Brown
found himself being drawn, into
the water. He raced . with the
end of the rope and tied 1t to
a tree, then he had to stand by
and see how his friend was
dragged from the rope and
taken under water. Gregory
has not been seen since.
Once a farmer, Gerhardus de
Bruin, with two companions,
ventured on the lake and drop-
ped a 2,000 -ft, plumb line It
went rgiht down without toucn-
ing bottom, but while they were
hauling the rope in something
caught it and began to drag it
downwards although all the
men hung on to the rope.
They swiftly sheared through
the rope with a knife and began
to row for the shore. Fifteen
feet from the shore something
grabbed the boat and jerked it
under the water. De Bruin and
his companions began to swim
for their lives.
De Bruin reached the muddy
shore exhausted and dragged
himself out, then turned to look
for his companions.
They had vanished! Within a
few feet of the shore something
had caught them and dragged
them under water! They have
not been seen since.
The world's most mysterious
lake keeps its grim secrets
locked somewhere in the great
depths where the superstitious
natives say a gigantic monster
has his lair. Can this be true?
1VEATIIER PROPHETS
Some French peasants claim
to be able to foretell the weather
for the next twelve months by
means of a centuries-old Christ-
mas custom.
Early on Christmas Day they
put twelve onions, representing
the months, in a row and then
place a dab of salt on each,
If by Epiphany the salt on any
onion has melted, the peasants
say the month 'represented by
that onion w111 be very wet. If
the salt on the twelfth onion is
dry at Epiphany, it means that
the following December will be
dry and that the sun will shine
brightly on Christmas Day,

Hungry Hotel
Amid a blaze of publicity, a
Government-owned hotel was
opened recently on the Gulf of
Siam. All the rooms were pala-
tial, and the amenities left
nothing to be desired. The hotel
staff was courteous and con-
siderate, and the charges were
moderate.
The new, palm -lined roads
that led to the hotel were a
motorist's delight; there were
excellent facilities for bathing
and sporting • activities, The
wide beach and' a well-equipped
playground ..ensured a good
holiday for children. There was
even a welisequipped health
centre close'4by; '
There was just one snag,
however, and it soon had the
guests departing, and writing
angry letters to the Press.
The hotel provided no food—
and the nearest town was nine-
teen miles away, and that's
quite a distance to travel for a
meal, they all agreed.
The explanation is that the
Government, finding itself un-
able to offer meals at a price
that would permit a reasonable
margin of profit, decided to of-
fer accommodation only — but
did not make this clear in its
brochures,

Jesus Interprets Ilistory
Luke 21:5-38
Memory Selection: .heaves
and earth shall pass away; but
my words shall not pass away.
Luke 21:33,
Our lesson is from one of the
most difficult and perplexinj'
portions of all of Christ's re-
corded teaching. I think God
meant it to be that way, If we
knew in minute detail God's
plan for the future, we would
know too much. Some confident
interpreters are very dogmatic
about their understanding of It
all. But if one follows their
writings .over a period of years,
the finds that they have to
amend frequently in order to
keep in line with current events.
During the later days of the
war I was returning a friend's
book. With great enthusiasm he
showed me a new book by the
same author, just off the press.
I ventured, "Oh," I said, "I sup-
pose that in this new book
Japan is not one of the ten lost
tribes." "No," he replied, In the
book I was returning, Japan
was so identified. Why the
change? The first book was
written before the war when
Japan was an ally of Britain.
The second was written when
Japan was fighting Britain.
Hence Japan was discontinued.
In the lesson Jesus predicts
the fall of Jerusalem. That took
place in 70 A.D. The Jews made
their last stubborn stand in the
temple. The Roman general set
fire to it, The Romans dug up
the foundation stones to pro-
cure the gold that had melted
and run down. Not one stone
was left upon another, even as
Jesus had said.
Verse 24 predicts the follow-
ing scattering of the Jews
throughout the world. "Jeru-
salem shall be trodden down of
the Gentiles till the time of the
Gentiles be fulfilled." The Gen-
tiles have recovered part of
Jerusalem. That is significant.
Great events are in the near fu-
ture. Let us take heed that we
are not bowed down with dissi-
pation, drunkeness and cares of
this life. The last can be disas-
trous to spiritual preparedness
as th,. first and the second. Jesus
Christ is coming again with His
holy angels, Let us be ready.

ments is shorter marriages)'

sed At Forum Meetings
The Fireside Farm Forum met at the
home of Mr. Lind Mrs, Harvey Taylor
with 19 adults present, The topic un-
der discussion was "Trade and Tariff.".
The forum thought Canadian farmers
should support the type of program be-
ing advanced by the general agree-
ment on tariff and trade, The forum
thought some of the problems with
this agreement could be prevented if
tariffs were higher In the summer and
lower in the winter on fruits and voge-
tables. Dumping of surplus goods
from other countries would also he
prevented if tariffs were higher, Our
country has a demand for some of the
cheaper -produced products from other
countries but restrictions should be
, set up In order not to hurt our indus-
tries and labor.

ed from the Live Wire Farm Forum

groups were formed for discussion on

A FUEL '
FOR EVERY
POCKET
BOOK
It's true that Rice (Hadi Coal) is priced to suit
any pocket hook, Rice Anthracite will give you
more heating comfort for every dollar spent than
any other fuel.
The variety 01 heating fuels are increasing
ith each year. Several grades of fuel oil are avail-
able, as well as propane gas and also radiant elec-
trical heating.
Now we will admit that any of these methods of
heating are convenient but for this convenience you
certainly sacrifice economy.
That is, why we say that Rice Anthracite is
priced to suit any pocketbook. There just isn't any
other fuel that will give you as much solid heating
comfort for every dollar spent as Rice Anthracite.
So why don't you as a buyer of fuel investigate
the economy of Rice Anthracite. See us soon.

} ANNA HIP'ST
.40fAir. au.aceot_,
When a man and his wife are
business partners, differences
are bound to arise .that some-
times ravage the good will
which should prevail, and their
continuance can affect the con-
duct of the mutual enterprises.
As in marriage, it seems to be
understood that the woman
must give in to the "better
judgment" of her husband; but
when his criticisms are mani-
festly unfair, that is hard to
do.
•
•
•
One wife is at her wits' end.
"We've been married 21 years,
and have had our own business
since '47; we both work awful-
ly hard, he out on the truck
and I in the store. We love
each other an awful lot," she
explains, "and have never had
many cross words until late-
ly , . . My husband seems to
want to boss me around, and
he says cruel things that hurt
ao I cannot help but say things

Contrary to many a moth-

are not always fertile fields
for romance, The atmosphere
is usually friendly in a casu-

be, and most of them have
several girls on the string al-
ready. If your daughter seems
attracted toward one of her
co-workers, suggest he bring
her home some evening so
you can get acquainted.
Meantime, calm your fears.

New Look in
Nurses' Uniforms
If you think nurses' uni-
t or m s are immune to Dior,
you're away behind the times!
According to William B. Mill-
er, president of Canada's larg-
est women's uniform makers,
uniforms move with the cur-
rent fashion just as surely as
cocktail dresses do. Waistlines
rise and f a 11, collars change
their shape, tucks and pockets
shift about, and about the only
thing "uniform" about them is
their color, However, they nev-
er follow a fad and adaptations
of new fashions are always
conservative,
"The • woman• in white must
look professional, but that
needn't prevent her from look-
ing attractive," this manufac-
turer claims, After all, she's a
woman first and nurse second.
Her working clothes should be
practical, but decidedly not
frumpy I
The stiff high neck and long
sleeves of a generation ago
have almost disappeared. Six
years ago, Mr. Miller sold one
uniform out of four with long
sleeves; last year it was only
one out of 27. As in every
other aspect of modern living,
tradition has given way to
functional comfort. Those who,
don't like short sleeves have
compromised with smart three-
quarter length push-ups.
Nurses, beauticians, and oth-
ers who spend their days in
white are buying higher quali-
ty uniforms today than they
did 10 years ago, according to
Mr. Miller. They insist on smart
styling and careful fit and they
demand fabrics which, are hard
wearing and easy to care for.

During the las: week weather,
the world over, has made the
headlines. And it has certainly
been disagreeable around here,
resulting in treacherously driv-
ing conditions, minor accidents
and filthy,mud-splashed cars.
It is still slushy, with wet snow
falling so the comforts of home
seem more attractive than usu-
al. Even the cattle share that
opinion. On nice, bright days
they gambol around in the yard
like a bunch of kittens, racing
this way and that when Partner
tries to get them back to the
staple. But when a storm is
brewing, or in progress. they
bunch up together, backs to the
wind, and wait at the barnyard
door to be let in. Last week we
had three heifers dehorned
without any adverse after af.
fects, so that's another little
worry Partner has behind him.
Which is just as well as we were
faced with other problems last
week. More about that later.
To look at me you might think
I was either heading for the di-
vorce court or had been inbib-
ing too freely of the cup that
cheers — or something equally
drastic—as 1 have one beautiful
"shiner"—the result of bumping
into a door -jamb. It didn't
bother me at the time but the
next morning , , , 'nut said, Now
the swelling has gone down the
blackness is blacker than ever.
ISSUE 10 — 1958
However, I am really lucky as
the impact did not break my
glasses.
Joy and Bob came up from
Oakville during the storm and
left for home when it was even
worse. It didn't seem to worry
Bob. As for Joy and 1 we forgot
the weather as we anticipated
the joys of spring by pouring
over the newly -arrived seed
catalogue. Those beautiful, col-
ourful flowers! Between discus-
sions of the best type of roses
and whether to start asparagus
from seed or roots, I heard
snatches of conversation be-
tween Partner and Bob — man
talk — about the collision of a
truck and tractor -trailer and the
marvellous work done by one
small tow -truck with the help
of winches, block and tackle. I
was paying a little more atten-
tion than usual because I had to
get towed out of our lane last
week. It wasn't because the go-
ing was heavy, nor was it very
slippery but as 1 turned off the
road to drive up, our lane 1 was
facing east and I hadn't gone
fifty yards before the wind-
shield was a solid sheet of ice.
I thought I was going straight
until my two off -side wheels bit
the ditch. I should have driven
with the door ripen but it all
happened so quickly I hardly
had time to think. I guess I'm
a fair-weather driver all right!
Anyway it is no hardship to stay
home when it is snowing and
blowing outside. •
Today I had a big pile of Aus-
tralian magazines 10 look
through and it suddenly struck
me what a lot one can learn of
an unknown country from let-
ters and advertising in maga-
zines. For instance, in one let-

ate oven 350', 25.30 mins, Let stand IA
pan for 5 mins, before turtling out,
ter the writer wailed — "Why
can't Australian women have
household electrical appliances
the same as American women?"
That naturally excited my curi-
osity so I began leafing through
the magazines again just to see
what could be gleaned from the
advertisements. Here is what I
found advertised, 2 refrigera-
tors, one 3 -burner electric stove,
one mix -master, one floor po-
lisher, 2 radios, several washing
machines, and that's about all.
There were only two advertis-
ments for cars, one a Morrisand
the other a Ford—and noone
ad for any kind of television,
nor any kind of liquor, cigar-
ettes or tobacco. But there were
ads galore for dress materials,
furniture, soups, soaps, biscuits
and cosmetics. Judging from
that what would you imagine
the average Australian home to
be like?
Then I came to an item that
deplored the fact that modern
houses were built minus a
veranda. By this time I was
asking myself questions about
new Canadian houses and sud-
denly realised that new houses
in Canada don't have verandas
either. It was quite a shock be-
cause I have always thought a
screened in porch was the
grandest thing to have. Appar-
ently there is no medium be.
tween i„doors and out. The
trend now is for breezeways and
patios. When you can't stand
the flies and mosquitoes any
more you get behind closed
doors and glass windows. Or
for those in the monied class
there is a cottage at the lake—
and in winter a trip to Florida.
So I began to wonder about
farm homes. What is the aver-
age farm home like? Is there
such a thing? I doubt it, be-
cause right on the same road
you can find remodelled homes
with all the modern trappings
and perhaps just across the way
another place where there is no
bathroom or furnace. I know
one place, many miles from
here, where the family still use
oil lamps although hydro goes
right past their gate. This fam-
ily has a mortgage complex,
denying themselves the com-
forts they should have, so as to
scrimp and save to pay off the
mortgage. They still have the
old-fashioned notion that a
mortgage is something to be
ashamed of. Nothing could be
further from the truth. A mort-
gage can be good business —
providing the foreseeable in-
come will cover the interest.
Perhaps a mortgae—or lack of
it—is one reason why we cannot
give a definite example of what
constitutes • an average hems.

Four years later, in 1923, he be-

star of over a hundred films.
Years later, long after God

One of his most memorable

a big success to an early "Beau

Farmer Nuns
Raise Goats
Almost everyone is acquaint-
ed with cows called "Betsy"
and "Clara," but in the moun-
tains north of Montreal are
some goats with far more im-
aginative names.
• "Cascade," "Blanchette" and
"Nougatine" are members of a
herd • carefully tended by a
young woman who wears a blue
cotton apron over the habit of
a nun. The cloistered sisters of
the Benedictine priory at Mont
Laurier, Quebec, make goat -
raising a profitable enterprise.
The milk is rich and provides
good butter and cream. Light,
digestible cheese is being made
on an experimental basis. The
Benedictine order is already
famous for chocolate - making
and some day these cloistered
sisters hope to develop a new
chocolate made with the milk
from their goats. Quite apart
from milk, the meat from
young kids is delicate and the
resourceful nuns hope to be
able to tan kidskin.
Behind the main building of
the priory at Mont Laurier is
land running back to a river-
bank. There, this progressive
group of w o 1n e n turn from
their prayers to operate a high-
ly efficient farm. They keep
about 500 hens, grow fruits and
vegetables - and raise ,oats.
The priory's meticulously -
clean goathouse has stalls for
25 milking goats. In a corner,
a wooden platform equipped
with a neck -yoke is where
"Nougatine" and her sisters
take turns munching from a
pail of oats while being milked.
On the wall hangs a chart re-
cording the milk given by each
member of the herd, for these
nuns are business -like farmers.
Along the river bank is the
goat pasture. The grass is thick
and the land rich, but not be-
cause nature made it that way.
These farmers in blue aprons
are completely up-to-date on
agricultural methods. Their al-
kaline soil last fall was treat-'
ed with limestone and this.
spring will be enriched by
growing clover and alfalfa.
Their pasture flourishes with
the help of modern chemical
fertilizers, scientifically applied
to meet the needs of the soil.
After these lucky goats have
grazed their fill, their thrifty
keepers protect the grass by
driving the herd into a "loung-
ing area" where "Cascade,"
"Blanchette" and the others
take their ease, nibbling on
straw and making milk. At sun-
down, the goats with the quaint
names quietly obey the young
nun's call and file into the Boat-
house with its whitewashed
stalls.
Fruits and vegetables grown
on the priory farm are care-
fully chosen for their food
value. A special variety of
black raspberry is cultivated
because it is high in vitamins.
The henhouse is a model of ef•
flciency. It is not so surpris-
ing then, to see these secluded
fields being plowed with a
shiny new tractor, confidently
driven by u nun in billow skirts.
SHORT SNORTS
Wolves, or wolf pups, do not
lap water like coyotes or dogs;
they sup it as does a horse or
C01V.
The prong -horned antelope is
not a true antelope. Unlike the
true antelipe the pronghorn has
branched horns and sheds the
ho sheat.
Fawns, only a tete haurs or
days old, have no body odor or
scent - their only protection at
that age against predators.

The "do.it-yourself" craze Is

An. imaginative designer has
made beads of polythene - the
waxy plastic commonly found
In kitchenware - and on each
bead he has moulded a tittle
knob which fits into every other
bead. They can be popped to-
gether without the use of string
to create a fascinating range of
necklace and bracelet styles.
The first polythene beads on
the market relied on the pastel
glow of the plastic itself for
beauty, but new pearl -like coat-

pearance in sparkling colors,
all the way from bright coral
through pastel pinks and blues
to chalk white,
This adaptable new necklet
is bought by the length - about
a yard for a dollar - and has
no clasp. The beads are easily
snapped together, stay in place
firmly and just as quickly can
be taken apart to ,serve the
whim of the moment. The wo-
man with a fashion flair can
combine colors in her own de-
signs, make her necklace long-

Paint Is Not
A Fire Hazard
In spite of our "scientific
age," it's amazing how many
old wives' tales still persist.
For instance, there's the one
about painted surfaces being
especial lire hazards.
Actually, - dried paint, in-
stead of tending to spread
flanges, effectively retards itl In
the early stages of a fire or-
dinary paints, particularly semi-
gloss ones, slow down the blaze.
You can check this the next
time you are around a bonfire.
Throw on painted and unpaint•
ed boards and just watch which
catches fire and is burned up
first,
