What Television
Addicts Do
In Canada TV is sometimes
blamed for weaning children
from their hiomework. In the
United States it seems it can
be far more of a menace,
Last October, Larlene Carl-
son, aged 22, told a Chicago
divorce judge that she prefer-
red TV to her husband, whom
ih^ accused of cruelty,
Richard Carlson had left
home a fortnight earlier, after
hitting his wife, He offered to
return if she would turn the TV
off at midnight. But, she told
the judge, she would choose
TV.
Television certainly means a
lot to American women. An
Ohio husband won a divorce
after saying that his wife
watched television every night
until the last station had
signed ofl. He wasn't allowed
to talk to her, except during
commercials,
In a New England divorce
action a wife accused her hus-
band of cruelty because , he
switched off at a dramatic mo -
meant in a play.
This sort of behaviour enrages
teenatgers, too. Fourteen-year-

Men can become television
addicts, too. Last December, in
a Los Angles court, a woman
described herself as a "tele-

had begged her husband to pay
some attention to her, but his
only interest was TV.
To the judge she said, "He
spent so much time watching
television that he had no time
to change his clothes. He even
fell, asleep watching TV. It was
as it his life depended on it.
He even liked the commercials,"

HITSONG WAS
A MASS KILLER
In a popular cafe in Budapest
late in 1935 a gipsy violinist
was playing from muted strings
the plaintive melody of a popu-
lar new tune,
A handsome young carpenter
seated before a . glass of wine
shouted for an encore. Then he
drew a revolver from his pocket
and shot himself through the
heart.
He left behind him a letter
telling of a pathetic love affair,
and ending, "I want to die lis-
tening to 'Gloomy Sunday: "
Gloomy Sunday ! A young
shop -girl hanged herself and
beneath her feet lay a marked
copy of the tune of death. A
pretty typist buried her face on
a pillow in a gas-oven—and in
a last letter pleaded that the
tune should. be played at her
funeral,
A man sang the dirge -like
refrain at • a smoking concert.
Then he, too, shot himself.
Like the Pied Piper's strain
the strange rhythm crept into
the hearts of men and women,
sending them headling to self-
annihilation.
The BBC banned the song.
American recording companies
suppressed it. Perhaps it epito-
mized the despair that was so
prevalent during the ,rise of
Hitler in the 1930's. Now the
affair, probably the only in-
stance of a curse bound up with •
a popular tune, has become a
classic for psychologists and
students of the supernatural.
From newspaper libraries
come such headlines as "Sui-
cide Song's 19th Victim" and
"Heartbreak Song Kills Again."
With its morbid words, the song
spread from country to country.
Learned professors considered
the evil effects of dance music.
Lawyers debated whether the
composer and lyric writer could
be prosecuted for comphcity in
the wave of deaths.
Disappointment in love could
not alone be held responsible.
One man who leapt out of a
window while the tune was be-
ing played was seventy years
old, Another victim was a fif-
teen -year-old girl, She drowned
herself, leaving behind her an
underscored copy of the song.
Strangest of all was a Buda-
pest errand -boy who had ridden
half -way across one of the -
Danube bridges when he heard
a beggar singing the song of
lament. The boy stopped, lis-
tened, emptied his pockets for
the beggar—and then climbed
the bridge rail and jumped.
Perhaps the old gipsy belief
is true—that there are some
tunes it is not good to hear,
Or was it mass hysteria?
Whatever the explanation, the
police calledon the composer,
Reszo Seress, and demanded
that the piece should be with-
drawn. Then was revealed the
composer's own amazing story,
Created in an evil moment,
the song's strange destiny had
also affected him, Two years
previously the girl whom he
had loved and planned to.marry
had thrown him over for a rich
banking director,
One dreary Sunday, when the
unhealed ache of the past re-
turned and his heart was heavy,
Seress sat down andworked
out the tune. It is not surpris-
ing that for months it could not
find a publisher., It could hard-
ly add to the gaiety of an even-
ing when a crooner sang:
"I've hastened back to my
lonely room
Though I know I would not
find you there . , . " .-
Then the song began to be
played—and shortly afterwards
the news of his former sweet-
heart's death reached him,
She had poisoned herself, and
left only tvto words scrawled
as a farewell message on a
sheet of paper.
"Gloomy Sunday".
The publishers agreed to
withdraw the song, but after the
ban bootleg copies were fur-
tively hawked in the streets and
found eager buyers. The trail of
death continued. Perhaps some
Hungarians were over -impres-
sionable, but the hoodoo on the
song was soon world news.
From Spain and lt-ily came fur-
ther fntalit'e'.
In America, wh_n Ilal Kemp
made the first recording, even
members of the band were af-
fected. Two musicians refused
to take part in the recording
session. There were so many
failures that no fewer than
twenty-one master records had
to be made before one was
good enough to. go into pro-
• duction.
Columnists immediately made
much of the fact that the
twenty spoiled recordings coin-
cided with the song's surrent
death -roll of twenty.
Apart from the plaintive mel-
ody, it was thought that noth-
ing in the words or music of
the song would disturb hard-
boiled New Yorkers. But after
listening to the Hal Kemp ren-
dering on the radio, a young
chemistry student hanged him-
self,
Soon the United States was
bewailing Ave victims.
The powerful Musicians'
Union decided that its members
should lend no further support
to the song. The radio net-
works and record companies
strengthened ..this conspiracy of
silence.
The composer complained, "I,.
stand in the midst of this
deathly success as an accused.
This fatal fame hurts me .. , I
cried all t h e disappointments
of my heart into this song and
people with feelings akin found
their own hurt in it .. , "
The BBC decided it could be
broadcast as, a ballad. They
changed their mind when it
found its first victim in Lon-
don.
A Brixton policeman heard
the dirge repeatedly coming
from a window on his beat. At
last he investigated and found
a repeat mechanism playing
the disc over and over in the
grey dawn while, near -by, a
woman lay dead.
"Gloomy Sunday" was ban-
ned, without further prompt-
ing, by publishers, bands, sing-
ers and record companies. The
strangest trail of disaster in
musical history came to an end
at last,

Autograph: Bugs
Do you collect autographs?
If so, do you know that there
is a society which claims to be
the first and only one of its
kind in the world, and which
caters specially for fans like
yourself?
• The Society of Autograph
Collecters was formed about
three years ago by a London
autograph collector who realized
the need dor a friendly,organ-
ized body which would be able
to bring together keen col-
lectors from Aden to Auckland
and from Zermatt to Zanzibar,
Members write to each other
-and to celebrities who, they
hope, will be impressed- on
specially printed society note-
paper, and they wear badges
made of black perspex engraved
in gold on the face with a quill
pen.
The society's presic::nt, who
says he has a personal collec-
tion of over 10,000 autogruphs
is starting a campaign against
fake and rubber - stamp
graphs,
Bulletins issued by the
society contain interesting in-
formation about celebrities and
collectors.
General Gruenther, the Allied.
Supreme Commander in Eur-
opc, is frequently asked by wo-
men autograph collectors to sign
his name across the palm of
their white glove.
A London hotel porter says
he has collected a goodly num-
ber of famous military, royal
and foreign rulers' signatures
by blotting the visitors' book -
but of course you need a mirror
to read them!
The society reports a surpris-
ing fluctuation in the exchange
value of autographs. Melba's is
still worth about $32.00, while
in schoolboy circles current
valuations are on the lines of
one Neeille Duke or Donald
Campbell for three of either

Low fertility and hatchability
results in a considerable loss to
pounitry breeders and hatchery -
men since incubated eggs that
are infertile and those that fail
to hatch have no salvage value.
There are many factors affect-
ing fertility and hatchability and
many of them are under control
of the poultry breeder.
• • •
A. P, Piloski, poultryman at
the Canada Department of Agri-
culture Indian Head Experimen-
tal Farm, states that the age of
chickens seems to have some
effect on htttchability. There is
a slight decrease in hatchability
in. the second year and a more
pronounced difference in .suc-
ceeding years, Males do not
seem to .be affected to the same
extent ,by age and malesex-
hibiting good vigor may be used
for several. years. Frozen combs
will.. make a .male inactive ` for
several weeks so that dubbing
is a good practice whenever
there is danger of the ' comb
freeiing, ' Dubbin g, however,
Should be done early in the fall
when the weather is still mild.
• * •
Rations that hens receive prior
to and during the breeding sea-
son have a great effect on match -
ability. A hatching'ration should
be fed at least a month prior
to the time that eggs are to be
collected for hatching, It is not
desirable to change rations dur-
ing the breeding season as this
may result in lower production
at a •time when all eggs are re-
quired for hatching.
• • •
Hatching eggs. should tie set
as soon after laying as possible,
as the time that these eggs can
be held is relatively short de-
pending on the temperature at
which they are stored. The opti-
mum range of temperatures is
between 45 degrees and 60 de-
grees F. At these 'temperatures
eggs can be• held a week with-
out hatchability being affected
significantly. Up to two weeks
the decrease iii hatchability is
small, but beyond this time,
hatchability decreases very ra-
pidly while the hatching time
increases. This factor is impor-
tant in hatcheries where a rigid
schedule is maintained.

In order to maintain a high
level of fertility' it is usual to
mate one male to fifteen females.
Under a system of pen -mating
where several males are used
in one pen this ratio should be
maintained, Too many males in
one pen may actually result In
decreased fertility because of
excessive fighting, Once a pen
has been made up it is unde-
sirable to introduce a strange
male into the pen because the
fighting which will follow usu'-
ally results. in fewer fertile eggs,
* * •
Males should be placed in the
breeding pens at least one week,
before eggs are to be saved to
asapre a_'high level of fertility.
Under some conditions such• as
individual b r e e d i n g, . cross-
breeding, or where time is an
element, it will be found that
artificial insemination is of great
value, By this method eggs may
be saved the second day follow-
ing insemination, Under normal
conditions high levels of fertility
can be maintained by natural
matings and following good
management practices,

The development of improved
cabbage varieties is closely asso-
ciated with changing human food
habits. For many years cabbage
was used mainly as a cooked
vegetable and in sauerkraut pro-
duction, The verities available
were satisfactory although they
produced large plants, thick
leaves and a leaf skeleton that
was coarse and hell, In recent
times a change to greater use of
raw vegetables, includine cab-
bage, in the form of salads
necessitated the introduction of
varieties with finer plant parts.
The new cabbage types have
fine - textured, closely - spaced
leaves with thin leaf skeletons
and a small head core.
• • •
A marked change is noted in
the preference for head size in
cabbage. Large heads are still
required for exhibition and com-
mercial processing but a small
1•.ead is preferred in the home.
The latter is related to the needs
of prsent dad small -sized families
and smaller quantities of cab-
bage consumed in salads as com-
pared to those used in cooked
meals,
.1 •
Eye appeal has had an effect
In developing cabbage varieties
with a deep green foliage colour;
red 'cabbage is becoming popu-
lar/because of the distinctiveness
colour gives to salads,
Cabbage can be kept in good
condition for several weeks af-
ter harvest with the modern
home cold -freezer,. But the pre-
ference for freshly harvested
heads has stimulated the devel-
opment of cabbage that will re-
main in good condition in the
garden for an extended time
'and can be used as needed. The
heads of most varieties tend to
burst or split open as they attain
mature size and therefore the
gardener must use measures to
retard this unfavourable con-
dition or cut the crop before the
heads begin to split, The new
non -bursting cabbage can be left
in the garden and used as de-
sired, •
• • •
Recommended caubage vari-
eties, for first early use are Ca-
nadian Acre; for second early
use, Viking Golden Acre; for
mid season purposes, the non -
bursting Bonanza; for late sea-
son, Danish Ballhead; and the
red variety, Red Acre.

These Like Queer Places
No matter what the location,
one should not be discouraged.
Provided there is soil and at
least light, a garden is always
possible,
For dark shady ,Forners there
are things like begonias, lily of
the valleyand such that will
thrive there and nowhere else.
At the opposite end of the scale
are portulaca, poppies, alyssum
and so on that delight in the
hottest sunshine, will stand
drought and are not particular
at all whether the soil is rich.
There are certain things that'
must be in a dry location and
others that don't mind getting
their feet wet, And, of course,
there is a wide range in colour
and height and time of bloom-
ing.
If the ground is rough and
slopes sharply there is always
an opportunity for a rock gard-
en. Here we simply reinforce the
slope with the most attractive
stones we can find, rough mos-
sy ones are best, and in between
we plant tiny rock plants. These
thrive in the shallow crevices
and it is surprising the amount
of bloom they provide.
For getting the best out of
these gardens in unusual lo-
cations, one is advised to study
the seed catalogue thoroughly,
note the special likes and dis-
likes of certain plants, and be
more careful than usual in mak-
ing suitable selections,
Nursery Stock
Anything started in a nursery
bed is termed nursery stock.
This covers everything from
herbaceous perennials like Iris,
peonies, or strawberry plants to
vines, shrubs, fruit and orna-
mental trees. Usually we buy
and plant this in our own gard-
ens as early in the spying as
possible. Good nursery stock
will be green and pliable, cover-
ed with buds if It is shrubbery
or trees, and it will not be too
far advanced, certainly not out
in leaf. Actually the more dor-
mant it is by the time we pur-
chase it the slower and better
the start, and the more certainty
of sturdy life later on. If we can
plant this stock just as soon as
it arrives it is best, but if we
must hold for a while, it should
be kept cool and moist, In plant-
ing the roots should not be ex-
posed anymore than we can
help and it is wise to shade
from sun and protect from the
wind. It should be planted in
well prepared soil and the salve
tramped down firmly about the
roots to exclude air, Big things
like fruit and ornamental trees
should be tied firmly to a stake
to prevent being whipped loose.
Water is the secret of successful
transplanting with this stock
just as it Is with plants like to-
matoes, cabbage, petunias, zin-
nias and other things we set
outside in the spring. Use plenty
until the new plants really start
to grow.

stakes in gardening are planting

too deep and too close together.
The size of the actual seed has
little 'to do with either. Some
tiny seeds produce mighty big
plants that will rdquire plenty
of • room. Some big seeds, like
that of beans, produce only
moderately sized plants.
The general rule for depth is
three times the diameter of the
seed, For tiny seed like that of
portulaca or alyssum or lettuce,
this simply means sowing on
top of the soil and pressing in
lightly, To spread more evenly,
the may mix seed with sand
before we sow. For bigger seed
say the size of peas or corn,
half to an inch deep will be
about right. Potatoes, gladiolus
and dahlias go down from six
to twelve inches,
As for spacing, it is well to
remember that even tiny things
like alyssum or portulaca, or
green onions, require some space
to develop properly, The safe
rule is at least half as much
space between sprouted plants
as they will be high when full
grown.

SOME DOG HEROES
A little lost child was crying
helplessly in a New York police
station, refusing to be comfort-
ed, The desk -sergeant looked at
her with anxiety and turned to
one of his patrolmen, "Send for
Bess," he said.
"Ohl" The toddler forgot her
tears as soon as Bess paddled
into the room, for Bess, a full-
grown female St. Bernard was
as soft and cuddly as a live ted-
dy bear.
For all her size, the smallest
children never feared Bess, She
went acress and licked the tear -
wet little face. "That's O,K.,"
said the sergeant, "she'll be all
right now,"
When he had finished entering
his boo::s he looked across at the
huge dog and the little girl,
curled up in a corner of the of-
fice, fast asleep. The child's head_
was pillowed on Bess's soft
flank, and a great paw rested
on the small relaxed body.
Bess was a police dog. Not in
the sense of the highly trained
specialists who scent out the trail
of a criminal and perform spec-
tacular feats of detection and ar-
rest.
But she was a real+ police dog,
engaged in a no less valuable
part of police work. She patroll-
ed with the men when she felt
that she needed exercise, but her.
main job was looking after lost
children.
Bess was a type. She repre-
sented those game and nameless
dogs, often of dubious ancestry,
who for one reason or another
have attached themselves to
policemen and have learned some
of the tricvks of the law.
Another such was Rum who
only used his nose to follow food,
He had pretensions to Irish blood,
could never mind his own busi-
ness when there was a flght in
the offing, and couldn't bear to
see children cross a road with-
out his fussy escort.
Then there was Nigger, a big
fellow with rescue on the brain
-he haunted canal banks hoping
that someone would need rescu-
ing. In the hot weather indignant
small boys were always being
"rescued" by a helpful Nigger.
Another mongrel hero was
Brownie. Nobody knew where
he came from or why, He just
turned up one day and adopted
a police station, endearing him-
self to the men for his sterling
qualities. He would wade in and
assist any policeman in a fight,
and grab anyone that a policeman
indicated.
What's more, he liked his beerl
A glass of ale in his drinking
bowl in a corner of the canteen
was part of Brownie's wages.
Small wonder that he was
solemnly invested with a collar
studded with police uniform but-
tons and promoted to the rank
of Station Mascot.
Another mascot was Mouse, He
strayed into a Banbury police
station and was told to go home.
But he had no hone. Three
times he came back and was -
then taken into custody under
whatever statute it is which pre-
serves police premises from can-
ine tramps, Mouse didn't mind
being under arrest. He grinned
all over his hungry face and set
about the best meal he'd seen
for weeks.
But poor Mouse didn't know
that there are stern regulations
for the disposal of homeless
strays. The pats which he re-
ceived from men about the sta-
tion he took as pure fool fellow-
ship when they were more often
expressions of pity. For Mouse
had been condemned.
He was saved by a fluke. A
high-ranking police officer who
N.as a dog -lover happened to see
Mouse and was impressed with
his intelligence. He decided to
send hin. to school,
The vagrant found himself at
a sort of doggy police college at
Washwater, .in Berkshire, Here,
the nondescript"Banbury
Cross," as one wit dubbed him,
was among hounds of -impeccable
ancestry - gulden Labradors,
pedigree blogd-hounds, champ-
ion and sons of champions. Wu
he downheated? Not a bit.
The dogs were in training to
pass out for the police service.
Mouse learned all their tricks and,
a bit more. What other dogs did
competently, he did with enthu-
siasm, and in better style. 30
he was made a mascot and plac-
ed on the permanent staff.
Other dogs of various breeds
have quietly carried out the rou-
tine work of policing, Thirty
years ago the North Eastern Rall -
way company was plagued by
thefts, fires and attacks on their
policemen.
A pack of Airedale terriers
was introduced, Soon there was
a drop in the tramp population
of docks and. railway property
and a big decrease in fires which
were attributed to their.careless-
ness, The dogs patrolled with
policemen, caught or scared on
thieves and several times pro-
tected their masters when at-
tacked,
Other dogs, though not polio
dogs, have often performed great
public service.
A little dog, which belonged
to the manager of a shop i11 Lon-
don's Whitechapel Road, was per-
petually scratching at the floor
of a room in the shop, trying to
draw the attention to the spot.
Wainwright, the shop owner, had
killed his sweetheart Harriet
Lane, and buried her beneath
that floor. When Wainwright
saw the dog's activities he killed
it. But the dog did not die la
vain; the murder was out.
In the reign of Charles V, King
of France, a French gentleman,
Aubrey de Montdidier, was mur-
dered in the Forest of Bondy.
There was no clue to the mur-
derer, but Montdidier's dog
showed an extraordinary aver-
sion to a man called Macaire, and
this led to suspicion.
In those days a man could
vindicate his cause by defeating
his accuser in battle in the ar-
ena. It was therefore decided
that Macairt, should be armed to
do battle in the arena with hls
dog accuser to find out the truth.
Macalre was given a shield and
a wooden club, the charge was
read` out, the oaths taken, and
then Macaire stood alone to de-
fend his life. The dog was let
loose and flew at the man. .
To and fro they struggled, and
even the hardened fighting men
gasped at the ghastly ferocity of
it, Up and down in the gory dust
they fought for hours. And then
Macalre was down and striving
frantically to escape those wick-
ed fangs.
Onlookers covered their eyes
as a weird, bubbling cry welled
from the man's throat. Then he
rolled over and was still. The
people went home satisfied that
truth had prevailed.

How can YOU benefit from
having a Current Account?
You'll find it much easier to keep an accurate record Jf
your current expenses when you have a Current
Account.
When you pay all bills by cheque on your Current
Account, you receive back, at the end of each month, ell
your cancelled cheques as well as a bank statement
showing every withdrawal and every deposit you have
made. The cancelled cheques serve as receipts -a rd a. c
accepted in court as evidence of payment of the amount
shown. Furthermore, they are much easier to file
away than receipts and take less room to store. With
them and your bank statements, you'll find it far easier
to get an exact picture of :how you spend your money.
So it's a good move to use a Current Account for paying
all current bills --and keep your Savings Account for
actual savings.

"Dear Anne Hirst: When I

• I hope you will come to your
• sense before you waste any
more time on such a cad, or
you will let yourself in for a
painful awakening, You are
badly confused, my young
friend, and I urge you to see
this character as the worthless
sort he is, not worth a single
regret.
Be grateful that he has left
and next time play straight,
However dull that sounds, it
is the only course to follow
that is not fraught with bitter
heartbreak.
Don't hate your family for
being "nasty." They would be
shocked beyond words if they

READY FOR, THE BIG DAY — Manufacturers in Monaco have

them. It bears a likeness of Monaco's sovereign and his bride-
to-be. United Stales and Monacan emblems are also featured.

Q. I know that the salad
plate Is placed at the left of the
plate. If, however, a wom-
an is wearing long, loose
sleeves which are apt to get in-
to the food in her dinner plate
while she is reaching across 11
to the salad, may she move the
salad plate to the right?
A, If there's space to the
right, this is quite all right. The
reason the salad plate is put at
the left is that there is more
room onthat side,
Q. I've ' heard that it Is im-
proper to comment on another
person's clothes, Does this mean
one should not admire or compli-
ment another on his clothes?
A. If you know another per-
son well enough, there is no,
reason why she shouldn't tell
him how well he is looking.
Q. I thanked each donor per-
sonally for gifts received at a
supposed to write thank -you
surprise birthday . party, Am Y
notes also to these donors?
A. No,
Q. I see more and more peo-
ple cutting their bread or rolls
at the table with a knife. Is
this now considered proper?
A, No, Good behavior still
requires that bread, rolls and
the like be broken into small
pieces with the fingers, and each
one buttered as it is eaten,
Q, How should one address
a wedding gift?
A. Gifts sent before the wed-
ding are addressed to the bride
in her maiden name. Gifts sent
after the wedding, of course,
are addressed to the couple,
Q. Is it correct for a man to
use double - sheettype of
stationery for Itis personal cor-
respondence?
A. This is all right, but the
single -sheet variety is consider-
ed more masculine.
Q. If the national anthem Is
played in a moving picture
theatre, should the audience
rise?
A. If it is played as part of
the picture, you do not rise,
But if it is played separately,
you most certainly do rise.
Q. When a hostess has wait-
ed 15 or 20 minutes for a guest,
and the other guests are alt
present, should she telephone to
see why he is delayed?
A, No; she is privileged to
go ahead and serve her dinner.

The Meaning of the Resurrec-
tion. Luke 24:28.34, 44-53
Memory Selection: Thanks be to
God, which giveth us the vic-
tory through our Lord Jesus
Christ, 1 Corinthians 15:57,
Christianity is the only reli-
gion which claims that its
founder has arisen from the
dead in a resurrected body, All
Mohammedans hope to make a
pilgrimage during their life to
.Mecca, the place where Moham-
med is buried, Many Christian
tourists and students visit the
tomb where Jesus was buried
at Jerusalem, But it is an empty
tomb. The words of the angel
echo in our ears: "He is not
here, He is risen." Only a liv-
ing leader can help us today.
The two disciples in today's
lesson were sad as they walked
to Emmaus, Then Jesus, with-
out revealing his identity, walk-
ed with them and explained
the Scriptures, It was in God's
order that Jesus should die for
the sins of man. Tl—^n as he ate
with them their eyes were open-
ed and they beheld the resur-
rected Jesus, Their sadness gave
way to joy and they hurried
to tell the other disciples that
they had seen the Lord. As they
were all together Jesus appear-
ed in their midst. After open-
ing. their• ' understanding con-
cerning the Scriptures he gave
them a mission. They were to
be his witnesses, They were to
preach repentance and remis-
sion of sins in His name among
all nations beginning at Jetu-
salem, But first they were to
tarry in Jerusalem for the Holy
Spirit, the promise a! the Fath-
er. Then Jesus led them out to
Bethany and blessed them 'and
was caught up into heaven.
The- challenge is still with . us.
Many millions have not yet
heard how God sent His Son to
save us. We need to . be wholly
given up to God so that em-
powered by His Spirit our wit-
ness shall be effective. The
message is the same, In the
name of Jesus Christ we must
urge people to repent of their
sins. When they do He will for-
give them, Jesus Christ is liv-.
ing today in the hearts of mul-
titudes around the world, But
everyone needs Him. We must
tell them by our lives and our
words.

Well, I might as well make a
confession -- and get it off my
chest. We finally gave in —
shall I say to mass hysteria —
and had a television set in-
stalled? So, for the last few
weeks, it has been a time of
discovery, picking and choos-
ing programmes we like and
finding our way around among
the different channels, So far
we have enjoyed it very much
and find it a good form of re-
laxation, That, of course, was
our primary objective in putting
it in, We can have entertain-
ment now and still enjoy the
comforts . of home — and it is
fun seeing people we know
flashed on the screen, There
have been quite a few. But as
most of you very well know —
TV Is more than entertainment.
'There are excellent educational
programmes well worth watch-
ing. Partner, of course, gets a
great kick out of telecast sports,
I, too, enjoy watching the hoc-
key games, Like everyone else
— except where there are chil-
dren—we do not turn out set on
during the day. And we shut it
off when we have callers — un-
less
there is something they
especially want to' see,
One thing kept us from put-
ting in television for so long —
we,couldn't see how we would
ever find time to watch it So
what happened? It doesn't make
much difference to Partner at
all, except that he does a little
less reading, His work, of course,
is done before there is very
much that he wants to see. But I
had to re -arrange my work con-
siderably, Thus, I left my iron-
ing until evening and then
watched television while 1 did
it. 1 got my backlog of mending
done the same way, In fact, for 10 Commandments
the first time in weeks, my
workbasket is actually .empty! Cut In, Mountain
Arranging time for typing and
writing was a little more diffi-
cult but that, too, 1 finally man-
aged , and have accomplished
more than 1 did before, So it
looks as if we denied ourselves
the, pleasure of telbvision for an
unnecessary length of -time, One,
thing I cannot, and will not do,
That is, sit hour after hour and
do nothing but watch television.
And it isn't necessary. A per-
son can knit, sew, mend and
watch a program without any
trouble, That is,, for those who
have bi-focal glasses or can
'I' work without glasses at all, I
don't imagine it would be pos-
sible for people who need glas-
ses.for. close work only.

scales were still just about even,
But the drop in egg prices may
soon change the picture.
Well, I suppose most farm
people have been following
proceedings at the Convention
of the Federation of Agriculture
in Hamilton. The reports and
suggestions given by those at the
top are thought-provoking to
say the least, Obviously, it isn't
enough these days to consider
one branch of activity. Farming,
industry, immigration, high-
ways and zoning regulations are
all tied in together. AND na-
tional health insurance. Directly
or indirectly it all affects the
farmer and he must find the
best way to adapt himself to
changing conditions, which may
be quite the opposite to that of
his neighbour. For instance we
had a middle-aged couple in
'here yesterday, still very active
with cattle and. crops. Recently
the fernier found it impossible
to obtain reliable hired . help,
The barnyard had to be kept
, clean andhe could not keep
pace with it alone. So off he
went and bought a manure
loader and a second tractor, Now
he has enough . equipment to
keep him independent of hired
help — a small thrshing ma-
chine,, baler, loader, horses and
two tractors, and as many beef
cattle . as the farm will accom-
modate. But think of the capital
tied up in all that equipment.
Another thing — this man be-
lieves in early to bed and early
to rise, I mention that because
there is some criticism about
late -rising farmers. That is the
result of labour-saving equip-
ment, At one time farmers had
to be up early to have the milk
out ready for the truck to pick
up. Now with milk coolers in

DREAM TRAIN'S A REAL "SOUVENIR" — At eight, all she wanted

at a press conference announcing her story and. gave the
daughter of the former president this toy diesel switching loco-

Japanese Actress
OnNew York Stage
Mariko Niki, :24 - year - old
Japanese -star of "The Teahouse
of .the August Moon," wore a
black silk brocade dress the day
1 met her, It had a softly shaped
mandarin collar and black bead
embroidery which she had ap,
plied herself. The slender dress,
nipped •in more at the waist
than a Chinese sheath, was de-
signed by Miss Niki, as is most
of her wardrobe.
The dress was indicative of
Miss Niki's second love — fa-
shion design, .As she prepares
to end more than 1000 perform-
ances in the role of "Lotus
Blossom" in the New York pro-
duction of "Teahouse" and go
with the .companyon the road,
she is naturally contemplating
facets of her future career, At
the moment she says„ "I love
acting, but I would love, too, to
get my hand into fashion."
And there are as well more
bousekeeping angles to learn,
for she is the wife of an Ameri-
can, Bernard Dekle, a writer for
the Voice of America, in Wash-
ington, D,C,, who rushes up to
spend weekends with his wife
In their large Manhattan studio
apartment,
Miss Niki's rise to star-
dom was by rapid` transit. She
went to the United States from
Japan in 1952 to study such
things as international relations,
design, television, and English
at Columbia and New York
Universities, She came, too to
wee what American ladies were
wearing,"
It was also while a coed that
she renewed her friendship with
Bernard Dekle, . whom she had
met through her brother in Ja-
pan, where Mr. Dekle was on
General MacArthur's staff.
When the couple decided to
be married, her family in Japan
were happy for they felt she
was not marrying a stranger.
Also, while still a. coed, Miss
Niki received an unexpected
telephone call from producer
Maurice Evans, asking if she
would_ be kind enough to come
lo the theatre for an audition
In a new play. -
- Miss Niki; who had played in
the theater and in films in Ja-
pan, decided that it would be
pleasant to appear on the
American stage as well, So,
WOULD RUN WITH NIXON —
M his news conference in
Washington, President Eisen-
hower tells newsmen that he
would be very happy to run for
re=election with Vice President
Richard Nixon.
gaily bedecked In a kimono, she
turned up for her appointment,
Then and • there producer
Albert Lewis and author John
r'atrick knew they had found
their "Lotus Blossom,"
Miss Niki whose real name is
Kazue Ouchi, changed her name
at the suggestion of Mr, Evans,
and began her, career on the
American stage, Except for a
totalof about three weeks, Miss
Niki has been in the show since _
it opened in the fall of 1953, and
she is the only principal from
the original cast who will go on
tour with the show after . it
closes March 24 at the Martin
Beck.
She says, "I love playing this
show very much, It is so hu-
man. In it Americans laugh at
themselves and, unless you are
very wide -minded, you cannot -
laugh at yourself,"
Miss Niki says she -likes the
role of "Lotus Blossom" because
she has been able'. to play 'her, .
not as a stylized Japanese gei-
sha girl, but as "friend of all the
people—a sort of nice, typical
Japanese girl,"
Does Miss Niki like keep-
ing house when she isn't at the
theatre, or taking Japanese
dancing lessons' or singing les-
sons? Yes, she does, though she
admits she had a great deal to
learn fast. "When I arrived I
knew nothing about gadgets, nor
frozen foods nor minute -rice,"
she remembers. Her neighbors
have helped her learn about the .
gadgets and she copes very well
with the cooking, with a favorite
Japanese grocer to deliver in-
gredients for her native dishes,
"But maybe I still keep ' house
in a Japanese way—I can't tell,"
"You American women know
how to use the time. You ' do
thins so quickly. Time is very
precious • here, isn't it? In
Japan, you see, everyone takes
time. Somehow there seems to
be more,"
Thaur h she is now used
to the New York pace, she says,
"I still can't keep up with those
efficient American ladies who
keep the house, go out to work,
come home, and keep the house
again." -
However, Miss Niki does find
the time to design her own
clothes, which a dressmaker
here makes up for her, In Japan
she did a little personal design-
ing for people whom she knew
very well, and it is this type of•
personal or custom designing
which she feels she prefers to
do, She is frank to say, "I don't
know about tnose .big -scale
things where one makes thous-
ands of clothes of one style."
The clothes she designs for
herself, such as the black' silk
sheath she wore for the inter-
view, have a notable Oriental
flavor, It is this type of East-
West clothes that she would like
to try her hand at designing for
others.
She likes the use of the
sash, of silk brocades, of Oriental
sheath• lines, and open -sleeved,
half-length Oriental "happi"
coats, She feels that Oriental
' clothes can be nicely adapted to
.American women who. she says
have the -stature and litheness
to, wear them well. Miss Niki is
herself much taller • than most
women of her country. She
stands' five feet four inches in
her getal
At the end of the "Teahouse"
tour, this winsome and gracious
actress and her husband will go
back to Japan for a visit• with
her falpily. Then will be soon
enough to decide about the
future,

Seeing Red,:
(An Editorial in The Toronto
Globe and Mall)
A basic tenet of British just -
,ice is that an accused person
is innocent until proved guilty.
Equally important is 'the pro-
position that once punished,
either by temporary loss of
'freedom or by financial pen-
alty, he has paid his obligation
to society, Both a: these prin-
ciples are violated by the Ont-
ario Department . of Highways'
practice of issuing red driving
permits to certain classes of
drivers.
The Department has report-
edly issued 1,500 of the new
permits since October to driv-
ers whose ordinary permit
was suspended after conviction
for drunk or impaired driving,
They must be carried for two
years before full reinstatement
is accorded. Consideration is
now being given to the exten-
sion of the policy to include
drivers . convicted of other
offenses, such as dangerous
driving.
The specious logic behind
the plan is that these marked
drivers will be more careful,
.being reluctant to get them-
selves into a situation which
would call for the revelation
of their past shame to police.
According to Highways Min-
ister Allan, the red permits
actuallydo act as a deterrent
to incautious drivers. They
probably have this effect on
some, to be sure , but, the
question which must be asked
is 'this: Does the result out-
weigh the disadvantages and
dangers of the scheme? In our
opinion the answer is that it
does not.
Surely most drivers would be
especially careful after one
conviction, no matter what
color their permit, The chances,
of their being stopped after
drinking are equal; and the
•
previous conviction is a matter•
of record and the consequences
equally grave. As for irrespon-
sible drivers, this measure
will not deter them a whit,
The real danger is that the
stigma of ' guilt will attach it-
self to • a driver' with '"a red
permit as soon as a policeman -
sees it, He may be innocently
involved in an accident, but
his special permit will immedi-
ately make him • suspect. Even
in the routine matter• of using
his permit as personal _ iden-
tification in bapks or in other
transactions, his character
would be reflected in unfair
light,
Issuance of special permits
is tantamount to an admission
by the Department of High-
ways that it does not trust
these drivers and must adopt
such means to .keep ' them in
check. This being the case, the
Department is impertinent to
reissue permits at all to them,
A driver under suspension
should be permitted to drive
again only after the Depart-
ment is convinced he will oper-
ate his car within the law, with-
out jeopardizing himself or
others. When the Department
is convinced of this, it should
restore him to full status, with-
out the obuoxious intermediate
step of second-class citizenship.
The onus here is on the Depart-
ment, not the driver.
The drinking driver is ad-
mittedly a serious problem, re-
quiring stern measures, but
this is an ineffectual method of
controlling it. Education and
enforcement are the weapons
which must be rsed, not a
method which undermines the
whole basis of our civil liber-
ties, For that is • what the pre-
sent
system is doing, whether
the Department officials realize
it or not, Either . the principles.
of British justice are right for
all citizens, or for none at all.
It is impossible ' say they are
right for an armed robber, but
not for an - impaired motorist.
The real danger is that once
the bulwark is breached -as' it
now has been- the basis of ex-
clusion from . that justice can
be widened a step the High-
ways Department is already
considering. The end result of
that can only be that every-
one convicted of any offense
must carry a card to proclaim
it, Canada will not tolerate
such a perversion of democracy,
How Can 1?

Q. HOW can I remove a splin-
ter and avoid soreness
A. Fill a small bottle up to
the neck with hot water. Place
the splinter over the mouth of
bottle and press the hand down
tightly, so that it is held by suc-
tion, Hold the hand this way for
-a few minutes, The splinter can
be easily removed with a needle
if th, steam does not draw it out,
Q. How can I make a good
mahogany polish?
A, Use two 'tablespoonfuls of
olive oil to a dessertspoonful of
vinegar, Mix thoroughly, apply
with an old flannel, and polish.
Q. How can . I harden ' the
bristles of a hair brush?
A. After washing the hair
brush, hold it for a. minute un-

make the brush last much
longer than if rinsed in warm
water.

-"Where Better Bulls Are Used"
We received a news release from the Holstein -
Friesian Association of Canada stating that Loch-
invar !Bonham. Rocharm made a record of 33108
lbs, of milk containing 1326 lbs, of fat, 3,98 percent
Argentina.
This is a new South American record. This cow
«ras exported as a calf corning from the herd of
Lorne 13. I; eid of Ripley, Ont. She is sired by Keen -
dale Lochinvar and her mother by College View
Governor making her a 3/.1 sister to Maple Lea L. G.
Rosine Ex & Ml -Can, who is the dam of our young
bull, Maple Lea Skokie, and has 5 records on 12X
that average over 20,000 of 3.8 percent milk,
• Then we remembered that another close rela-
tive of the Rosine cow -had made a high record and
on checking back found that her 10,0 percent sister
had prohuced as a two year old, 22765 lbs, of milk,
test 3.64 percent,, 828 lbs, of fat. This record was
also made in South America.
Wonderful production for' any country.
This is the type of family from which we are
choosing our young bulls to carry on the high pro-
duction established by the bulls that we are using
now and have used previously,
