I need sombody to steady me, and I believe you can. For eight months I dated a boy I thought was perfect — and then I learn- ed he was dating my chum, too, and took her to new places to hide from me. From now on, I let them both very well alone. , . "Now he has come back to me (with no apologies) and calls or sees me every night, as he used to. But whenever we make a real date to go some- where, he doesn't show up! He says he loves me, but how can he? "I learned yesterday he has told several of our friends that we're going to be married in the fall. I have never even prom- ised to marry him, though I want to, because I'm beginning to realize how undependable he Is. Yet I don't know how I could face tomorrow without some word from him!

An error, purely imaginary, of course, in filling in their coupons — something they would have altered, if the wife or daughter had not foolishly - posted the coupon — has proved a dazzling stroke of fate for several people lately, And, equally, a mistake bay lie at the heart of romance or confer on two people happiness they never imagined possible. Just two summers ago, a Norwegian girl won a.state foot- ball prize of $0000.- Being young and lovely, a flaxen -haired ice princess, as one newspaper des- cribed her, she found herself inundated by offers of marriage. Several suitors presented .them- selves in person. With an eye to future luxuries, she picked on one, a wealthy silver fox breeder's son. She skated, ski'd and danced with him, Her en- chantments seemed to him divine. He soon "dated" her for life. Came the wedding day in a tiny country church near -Lille- ' hammer, and by an incredible mix-up over the names of bridegroom and best man, a vague -minded pastor married the girl to the latter. In the vei.- try his blunder was pointed out "Well", said the bridegr•oorq, "you'll have to conduct the wedding ceremony all over again, and marry me to Helga —not him!" Then the girl cut short his apologies with startling finali- ty. "Oh, no you won't!" she de- clared." I got my money by chance and now it looks as if the same goddess has given me a husband. Thank you. very much, pastor. If the best man is willing, so 'am I!" And off she went, arm -in -arm with a husband the had met only once beforehand, leaving the astonished bridegroom crushing his carnation button- hole in fury on the church steps. Now, as the mother of thriving twins, she's as happily married as the princess in any fairy tale. A mistake can lead to for- tune. A woman, not long ago went to a Midland hospital for a fin- ger operation and the surgeon amputated the top of the wrong finger. Because of that mistake, a 'judge at Staffordshire Assizes awarded her $7,500. More substantial was the damage money paid to a New York couple, Isaac and Rose Keller, for a year of terrible heartbreak. Their twenty-six- year-old son, Murray, collapsed in an underground train and died. By some extraordinary oversight, the police and hospi- tal authorities confused his name, They described him as "Solnard," and since he appear- ed to have no relatives, buried him in a pauper's grave. Frantically and despairingly the Kellers hunted for ' their missing lad. At long 'last, they turned over the files of the process of construction as the land was taken over for a sub -division. And then the finished picture — faunily life in a newly developed community, with all its advantages and disadvantages. 1t was so good I trope the CBO will repeat it.

I wonder if the cause—and a real cure—for arthritis will over be found. It can often be relelved but seldom is it cured. It is responsible for the loss of more work hours than any other disease. Here Is Partner for instance, still young enough to be active and yet unable to cope with a normal day's work. The most insidious thing about pro• longed arthritis is Its weakening effect.

"That's your hus- band," said the wizard, putting on his most ingratiating smile. "Oh, no, it isn't," she retorted, "It is your husband, senora,' hissed Siuxcu. "You will take him!" "Well, I shall settle that," said the woman. Whereupon, stepping briskly forward, she dealt him a terrific uppercut. It stretched him out flat on top of his spell -weaving pots, Countless golden inventions would never have materialized, except for a lucky mistake. The terribletoll of traffic accidents would be far more hideous had not a French chemist, Benedic- tus, accidentally tipped a bottle off his laboratory shelf. "Good 'gracious!" exclaimed the astonished scientist. "Il hasn't splintered. The bottle lay at his feet, criss-crossed by. cracks, but otherwise complete. He knew what was in the bottle; collodion in solution. This sol- vent had, after evaporating, coated the bottle's walls with cellulose nitrate, so forming a skin to hold the cracks together. A day or two later, the chemist read of a woman, shockingly lacerated by flying glass in a motor smash. He linked his bottle accident in his mind to her facial injur- ies. He experimented until he evolved safety glass, thus vast- ly improving the security of motorists, A misplaced comma recently saved two girls from prison, It was wrongly placed in a sen- tence and, agreeing that it was "bad law," the recorder ordered the girls' case to be heard afresh.

Ada Cherry • IKearton once put that question to her famous animal - photographer husband, and he replied: "Stare It out." That's what he'd done one day when he went quail -shooting with a fellow -officer, armed only with small shotgun, became sep- arated from him in the thick scrub and, rounding a bush, sud- denly faced a magnificent black - maned lion only eight feet off. Cherry stood motionless, knowing that the slightest move would sign his death warrant, as they stood staring at each other. At last the lion snarled, show- ing great curving teeth and his eyes dropped. He lay down, the snarl becoming an angry growl, his tail rose, and Cherry knew he was wondering whether to charge. But his stare, as he stood motionless, seemed to worry the lion, who began to edge slowly back after four or five minutes, with rumbling but slightly puz- zled growls; Finally he moved slowly off into the bush, Cherry stood, covered in perspiration, for several minutes more, won- dering if the lion was watching him, then went back to camp. Another time a message came from a kraal in Southern Tan- ganyika saying that several natives had been killed by a man-eating lion or lioness: could be come to their aid? Cherry set out to track down the killer with two other hunters, but to- wards evening lost the trail and returned towards the village, Cherry and one native going on ahead armed only with a cam- era. Suddenly, at the foot of a small hill, they saw five lions feeding off a gazelle, Cherry set up his camera and sent the native back to hurry up the ethers and bring his gun. He reckoned that as the lions had hist fed they wouldn't take much interest in him. But he hadn't allowed for the meal being insufficient, and it wasn't many minutes before a big lioness got up, yawned, fastened her eyes on Cherry, then advanced a few yards and 'toad considering him, while the others ranged behind her. This, he thought, was probably the man-eater. When the whole pride began to move slowly forward, some- thing had to be done, and quick- ly. If he stood still they would soon reach him, If he turned and ran they would be after him in a flash. There were no climable trees, He did the only possible thing —dropped flat in the waist -high grass, and after two nerve-rack- ing minutes, cautiously raised his bead. The lions, evidently mys• tided, had stopped. But the lioness began moving forward again, straight for where he lay. - Like a jack- in - the • box he sprang to his feet, halting the astonished lioness. But after a few minutes she came on again, with .steady purpose. He realized that unless he varied the game it could have but one ending; so the next time he dropped out of sight he began working his way baickward in different direc- tions, jumping up every now and then to see where she had got to.. Soon it became apparent that she was coming forward faster than he was going back, until she was less than thirty yards away, and about to charge, Yet the next time he sprang to his feet the whole pride had van- ished, the two hunters with their bearers appeared on a near -by ridge, and the frightening or- deal was over. In a most vivid account of her life with Cherry "On Safari" — Mrs. Kearton said they would often watch lions at their "kill" from a hide near a water -hole. Once they saw a charming fam- ily scene — father, mother and a cub by the remains of a zebra. The mother lay on her back, rolling every now and then from side to side. Father licked the cub all over, then took hold of it with his front paws and roll- ed over on his back, hugging it to his chest. Then he rolled from side to side while it gambolled playfully around hm. When the cub became too rough, bting and hanging on to father's ear, his paw came down with a heavy smack. They kept up the game for nearly half an hour before' exhausted, it crept to its mother and fell asleep by her side. From another side they saw a troop of about 110 baboons come cautiously to the water's edge. Ten or twelve would drink to- gether, with two or three sent- inels scouting along either bank, Almost the last to drink were a family — father, mother and a young baby, whom father picked up and held awkwardly in his arms while mother stooped to drink. On a sudden warning bark from a sentinel — who had prob- ably heard the whirring of • the cameras in the hide — the whole troop bolted. Father, in his hur- ry to scramble up the bank, most ungallantly dropped the baby, who rolled down almost into the water -hole, jumped up, leapt into a thorn tree, and. was com- pletely hidden. For several minutes there was silence, then an excited mutter- ing from a near -by hillock as the baby was missed. Presently the parents crept cautiously back, the mother spotted her babe perched Aloft, rushed to- wards it with arms outstretched. In a flash it had jumped down end both vanished. Once Cherry was photograph- ing a dozen or more hippos from a small punt on a lake when one bull slid into the water from the mud bank, headed for him, and dived, A hippo attacking a boat, Mrs, Kearton says, will either • nk>x,:r; o > 1>r.:aRA TWO CONES AND A COFFIN—Ten-year-old twins Allen, left, and Barry Jones tempt the glass-ccoffined Blondini with their Ice cream cones. Blondini, the "White` Yogi", plans to spend two months in the glass tomb, buried under two tons of sand. He will exist on only glucose water. The endurance feat is being attempted at Brighton, England, where Blondini once chalked up 12 hours on a bed of nails. e try to crush it in his huge jaws, biting It in half, or dive and try to capsize it by surfacing under- neath, Realizing his danger, Cherry dropped his camera and seized a -.paddle. The boat shot round and headed for shore, closely pur- sued by the irate hippo. Once he tried to gain ground by putting a mud -bank between them, but . the hippo cleared it at a bound, then surged angrily towards the boat, repeatedly diving. Cherry had about sixty yards to cover before reaching the shore, and reckoned that only the shallow water of the Last twenty saved him. Mrs. Kearton says that, for savage drama, a fight between a rhino and crocodile on the Tana River bank has seldom been e q u a 11 e d. Immediately the rhino's mouth touched the water to drink there was a swirling rush of foam and the croc seized its lower, jaw and slowly but surely dragged it in. A full- grown rhino weighs something over two tons, and is among the most powerful and dangerous of beasts. But even with the frantic strength born of terror it was dragged in to the river and within three minutes had disap- peared. Poor Security A daring Mexican girl -of about eighteen nicknamed Lola has hit on a new method to de- fraud shopkeepers. First she kidnaps a child from the street, offering the inducement of candy or cake. Then she enters a ship, makes a purchase and suddenly discovers that she has forgotten her money. She tells salesgirl or proprietor that she will come back immediately with the money and leaves "her child" as security. But the girl may soon fall in- to police hands, for she has tried the' same trick at least a dozen times, In• one case the girl took six- year-old Maria 'Rojas while her mother was shopping in an- other part of the store. Lured by candy, the child went will- ingly and was led to a shoe store where the kidnapper bought sveral pairs of shoes, found she had forgotten her money, and left , the hopeless Maria as security. Itwas only an hour later that the shoe store proprietor felt alarm, questioned a restless and crying Maria, and found that the strange young lady was not her mother, Lola's "cuckoo" tricks have got her a big nest - egg. But it could only happen in Mexico where many toddlers wander the streets unsuper- vised. Or could it? SHOP LOCALLY The farmer in the hardware store asked the price of an axe, "That'll' be $1.75," said the merchant. The- farmer opened a mail- order catalogue 'he had with him and pointed to the same item. "These people sell it for $1,40." "O.K.," said the proprietor, "if they can sell it for that, so can I, That'll be $1.40 plus 180." "Why the 180?" "If you sent off for it, you'd have to pay postage," The farmer had to agree. He counted out $1.58 and handed it to the merchant who wrapped up the axe and placed it on a shelf. "But 1 want to take it with me," said the farmer, The merchant shook his head, "Come back in three days and ft's yours," DRIVE WITH CARE ./ Speed-up . Your Rate of Reading You are reading this article —but have you any idea at what speed? Are you a fast or a slow reader? If you are one of the millions of people who can read and di- gest printed words very quickly, you'll be intersted in a new gad- get called a tachistoscope which is now in daily use in 300 col- leges and universities in the United States. It's a little screen which slides down over the printed page at a set speed, compelling the reader to keep pace with it. As the reader becomes more ef- ficient, the screen's speed is in- . creased, Some of the students now taking course in quick and ac- curate reading find they can read as many as 1,800 words a minute. That's good going. Com- pare it with the sped of 450 words a minute which experts declared in 1048 was a pretty good working average for an educated person. What happens when you read? The eye moves along the lines of print in a ,series of jumps. and pauses. Nothing is taken in while the eye is in movement, and only during the short pauses are . words recognized. Average pause for a good reader is one-fifth of a second —of a poor reader, about one- third of a second, So, in ten minutes'reading, the good reader is a long way ahead of the poor reader. Some people recognize as many as four words in one pause, while others are limited to one or even part of a word. FOOT -NOTE: Greatest read- ing speed ever achieved was that of a Victorian student of liter- ature who proved he could read and remember fifty words a second, He sometimes read six novels a day. New -style Archery Deep in the heart of French Equatorial Africa a party of ex- pert American archers are hun- ting big game with bows and arrows. Doctors, lawyers and businessmen, each member of this strange safari is allowed to carry two bows and thirty-six arrows—and so far the bag has included . gazelle, antelope, a lion and two elephants. This is just the latest facet of the world's fastest -booming sport. Archery has actually be- come adopted for U.S. army training and Ontario has set aside a hunting area of twenty- five square miles signposted for bows and arrows only, No fewer than 15,000 archery addicts will hunt in North America this season. Besides the yew bows that served the Eng- lish archers so well at Agin- court, steel bows are being used for flight records of up to half - a -mile and arrows of aluminum and duralumin are lending new accuracy to a bowman's skill. New -type William Tells, too can show off with new -style tricks. Ace bowman Howard Hill likes to release toy balloons into the wind a dozen at a time and he will pop every one be - for it escapes out of range. And William Tell might have blinked at Russ Hoogerhyde's knack of shooting five arrows at the five of spades from a distance of 12 yards and piercing every pip.

His Wife Couldn't Spell His Name Polish -born Andreas Malz, a U.S. citizen, was recently given permission to change his name to Harry S. Truman. He chose that name because he admired the ex -President and regarded him as one of the greatest men in the world. Some 500,000 Americans change their names every year for various complications, em- barrassing similarities and so on. Some months ago an Ameri- can named Eleftherios Kavoun- didis applied to a Detroit court for permission to change his name. "Even my wife can't spell or pronounce it," he said. His application was granted and he's now Larry Andrews. There was also a Mr. Fido who, although well aware Fido is an old English name, grew tired of the way people jokingly greeted him with a bark, or made puns about "bow -wows" When his little daughter de- cided she would like to be a schoolteacher when she grew up, Mr. Fido, after consulting his wife, decided to change the fam- ily name to a very ordinary one. They felt this would save their daughter from being given em- barrassing nicknames by the schoolchildren she will be teach- ing in twenty years' time. Who can blame a sensitive per- son for changing his name to avoid constant wisecracks? A certain Mr, Wrigglenecke, of California, became plain Mr. John Jones a few years ago. And in Britain a Mr. J. Bug, land- lord of a tavern, changed his name to Mr. J.r Norfolk -Howard, In New York John Warkan- zanowsky petitioned the court to change not his second name but his first. Why did he dislike the name John? "Because," he told the judge, "my wife had an earlier suitor named John and she often tells me that things would have been very different had she married him." The court granted his petition. • IN THE KING'S COURT—Under the waxy stare of Prussian King Frederick the Great, right, sailor David Smith snaps a portrait study of Charlemagne. The regal setting was in a wax museum in Hamburg, Germany. Last Words Aren't Always Mournful When Theodore Hook, eight- eenth -century wit and play- wright, lay dying, a friend arrived who was noted for his enjoyment of funerals and sad occasions. Joked the dying man: "Tell him to come up. If I am alive, I'll be pleased to see him, If I am dead, he'll be pleased to see me!" King James V of Scotland, noted for his wit kept up the banter his very last words. The news of the birth of a daughter was brought to him as he lay dying, a daughter who would be heir to his crown. "It came with a lass," he mur- mured, "and it will go with one." This was an allusion to the fact that the crown came into his family throught the daugh- ter of King Robert Bruce, Fontelle, celebrated member of the French academy, lingered a long time on his death -bed, but remained very cheerful. • When the end came he was heard to murmur: "I do not suffer, but I feel a certain difficulty in existing," George IV was not noted for his wit, but he kept gay to the end, As he died, his page, Sir Walthen Waller, was beside his bed, The King turned to him. "Watty what is this?", he ex- claimed, "It is death, my boy— they have deceived me!" The Earl of Eldon, the great judge, also had a sense of hum- our that did not desert him at the end. As he lay dying he re- marked to those about his bed: "It matters not to me where I am going, whether the _weather be cold or hot." When Prinsess Charlotte was dying the physician tried to sus- tain her with large doses of brandy. "You make me drunk," she protested, "Pray leave me quiet, I fi.nd it affects my head." So saying she passed a- way. , But according to the corre- spondence of the Duke of Wel- lington, she was also dosed with hot strong wine and sal volatile! Louis XIV of France made his exit quite easily. His last words were: "I had thought dying would be more difficult. I did not know it was so sweet to die," The great surgeon, William Hunter, also reported favorably ' to those about his death -bed. Said he: "If I had strength to hold a pen I would write how easy and delightful a thing it is to die." Most people know Nelson's last words—"I thank God I have done my duty." Less well known are those of Nelson's great friend, Admiral Collingwood. The admiral was stricken down while at sea, and as he lay dy- ing the weather worsened. Said Captain Thomas, "I fear .........t:....:.:c:..»:rt:� .+..4...a..:1..r,'i.1,n .:....:fir,.;.. ,.r.:.s.4a...6... ;ii.i...• ,....�, 1::k7.n�x :b....:.�,..ta. « 3i.:.. .': . ,.:, A'.OMIC CRUISER — This sketch shows the atomic•powered "all -missile" cruiser expected to play an important part in the fleet of the near future. Designed to be equally effective against sea, `land and underrea targets, the all-purpose cruiser will carry a number of multiple launchers for missiles of varying range and capabilities, plus torpedo launching equipment. Sir, the tossing of the ship dis- turbs you?" Collingwood shook his head: "No, Thomas," he replied feebly, "I am now in a state in which nothing in this world can dis- turb me more. I am dying; and I am sure it must be consolatory to you and to all who love me, to see how comfortably I am coming to my end."

Science, through the use of hybrid seed, has pro- duced a bumper crop of corn that makes the old adage ob- solete by early July. acter to the last as the man of iron. "It is not my design," he said to those around his death- bed, "to drink or to sleep; but my design is to make what haste I can to be gone." That said— he went, Haller, the Swiss anatomist, remained interested in the changes which were taking place in his dying body, a professional to the Last. "The artery ceases to beat," he whispered, and his heart stopped. The poets don't seem to have been at their best at great last words. For example, Burns, Scotland's ploughman -poet, died shouting, "That scoundrel Mat- thew Penn!"—which was not poetical. Matthew Penn was an at- torney who was threatening the poet with prison for debt, even to his death -bed, which explains poor Burns' last outburst. Short and to the point—that was Byron, "I must sleep now," he murmured, Goethe, the great German philo- sopher -poet, sat up suddenly in bed and cried in a strong voice: "More light!" Then he fell back dead, After a life of incredible toil, Sir Walter Scott may have been pleased to go, I1c smiled on his family, gathered around him, said, "God bless you all!" and closed his eyes for the last time.

Broilers Booming Picnickers and cookout fans have, knoWjngly or not, con- spired.to keep their broiler pro- duction booming. People who like to eat out- doors are staging more and more chicken barbecues - sometimes just for the family, sometimes literally for thousands. No only are chicken barbe- cues combining to keep the new- est and fastest-growing segment of the poultry industry firmly on its feet, but they have pro- vided those who enjoy the modern way of outdoor living with a happy and economical medium between hot dogs and steaks. From a very humble begining some 20 years ago, the Ameri- can broiler Industry has mush- roomed from about 34',000,000 birds a year to considerably over 1,000,000,000 annually. That sounds like plenty of broilers for even such mam- moth chicken barbecues as the one staged annually at Belfast, Maine, where 15,000 visitors are fed. However, would-be barbe- cuers have found that it takes much more than -a rakish chef's hat a white apron, and a char- coal fire in a back -yard gadget to stage a successful chicken barbecue, For that reason and in an ef- fort to teach the fine points of chicken barbecuing not only to individuals but to respresentat- ives of churches, service clubs, community organizations, rec- reational supervisors, scout lead- ers, and others, barbecue schools have sprung up in several areas, drawing "students" ' from all parts of the country, Panels of visiting barbecue masters demonstrated to these students how to organize and to carry out mass chicken bar- becues for anywhere from a dozen to 25,000 person at a time. * * The first substantial increase in broiler production often Is credited to wartime scarcity and rationing of red meats and to the government's appeal for the development of a faster method of converting feed to food. How- ever, since 1945 the volume has actually tripled. The phenomenal growth was made possible because tech- nology research had opened new avenues to progress. Better breeding, nutrition, procressing, and management were coupled with two successive three-year chicken -of -tomorrow contests. Agricultural schools and colleges, hatcherymen, feed men, and pro- cessors participated in the con- tests, along with leading poultry producers. The result was a quicker dev- eloped meatier bird. Today only from 9 to 10 weeks and 91 pounds of feed are needed, and farm prices have dropped to between 19 and 24 cents a pound, live weight, de- pending on the region where the broilers are raised. While New England poultry- men • pioneered in broiler pro- duction and research, Georgia .has forged ahead of all in pro- duction. The broiler market -is nationwide, and broilers from any given, area"can be sold on a national scale, thanks to rapid transportation, good refriger- ation, and newly developed sanitary processes, writes Eve- rett H. Smith in The Christian Science Monitor.' Meanwhile the use of 'broiler meat has shown a steady rise. Prior to _ 1940 the consumption of poultrymeat was cenflned chiefly to fowl, capon, and roast- ing chicken. Today, while Amer- icans eat an average of 9.4 pounds of fowl per person an- nually, broiler meat has in- creased in use from practically nil to 13.3 pounds per person annually—all within about 20 years. A large part of this steadily increasing consumption of broil- er meat is credited to a natural partnership that has sprung up between the producers and the chicken barbecues which have become so popular, Hundreds of thousands of persons have found barbecued chicken, flavored with gravy, stuffing and spices to be something entirely new—and delicious! They like, also, the the mingled aroma of wood hovering lazily over pit and pan, and of brown -crusted meat oozing with spicy goodness. With the trend toward more gracious outdoor living, these family organizational, and com- munity chicken barbecues have steadily increased. Sales of out- door cookers, grills, and barbe- cue equipment have skyrocked during the past two years. In addition to these barbecue schools, hundreds of open -to -the public chicken barbecues are scheduled to be held between now an early fall. Barbecue fans say that a chicken barbecue means"g6od pickin', good lickin' — that's chicken!" Costume as well as expensive jewellery, including diamond rings, can be cleaned by immers- ing the pieces in a solution of one teaspoon of ammonia in a pint of warm water. Let the jewellery stand in the solution for about half an hour. Most metals except brass and copper can be cleaned this way. •, Pl., IM.w w..,-...... ,,* ▪ Gti,T'l�r P.41,, "The messenger fell off the dock and I grabbed it!"

The pig was for sale or bar- ter in the teeming market at Barcelos, the most fatuous mar- ket in north Portugal, Its wares mirror the 18th century pattern Df Arcadian- life in the rich Vlinho valley. The market covers a quarter of an acre on the Campo de Fire. Gay with flower patches, the open square has a Gothic fountain In the middle, and the entire eastern side is filled by the pink facade of the old Capu- chin monastery. The church front rising in the tenter with a baroque flourish makes 'a picturesque backdrop to the busy market scene. At the fountain a ballad (or sada) singer and his woman sing songs and peddle the words on sheets of paper to men and boys. One imagined groups sit- ting under the grapevines in the openair cafes in the twi- light singing the songs, The chorus would be bass chords, since Portuguese women rarely join their men in these cafes. The breeze flutters the long streamers of oxhide hanging from tree branches. Women feel these apprasingly between thumb and forefinger before buying, as women in cities fin- ger velvet or silk. Other wo- men walk hither and thither with burdens on their heads - here a bundle of hay, a basket of fish, small peeping chickens, with their beaks sticking up all round the basket, a tall water pitcher, a basket of eggs. On the avenue of the vege- tables, men and women squat on the ground beside small mounds of oranges, lemons, po- tatoes, yellow beans in crocks, baskets of young rabbits, chic- kens and eggs. Among all the Wise and bustle a dark-haired baby sleeps in a flat straw bas- ket. In the pottery section great red earthenware pitchers, cas- seroles, and other cooking uten- sils are sold for a few escudos. English visitors are astounded et the low cost of these pots. Their surprise is sometimes mis- taken by the sellers who think the price is too high. In this Lase they give a proud shrug of the shoulders. There is no bar- gaining here. That is the price, have It or not, as you wish. But the price was reduced, I noticed, when a needy peasant woman show- ed a few escudos in a grubby palm, writes Melita Knowles in The Christian Science Moni- tor. From the nearby potteries of Viano de Castelo comes deli - :ate china, as light and trans- :ucent as Chinese rice bowls, SALLY'S SALLIES 4r. 0� "On vacation I get a kick out of tills: I set the alarm ass usual, then shut IL off." But most of the pottery is strictly utilitarian, with the traditional designs of the mari- gold or the crooked heart, the cock or the fish,This coarse earthenware is ade in little huts at the roadside, the baking being done with 'charcoal fires in a bee-lhiv>'-shaped 'mound. There is a great display of handpainted cocks, symbol of the. Portuguese peasant "busy from dawn to sunset." I found it impossible to resist the larg- . est rooster though it filled half a suitcase on the flight home. Towards noon an appetizing smell of risotto and onion floats over the market. The family stew is warmed on little stoves under the trees. Hungry boys dip into three-legged bowls with long spoons, and tear strips of dark bread from a large flat loaf. As the farm produce disap- pears the women make their way to the stands displaying straw hats, baskets and fabrics, ribbons, laces and other trim- mings, Dressmaking is done mostly at home by the women of Portugal. At the jewelry table, wea- thered hands turn over large gypsy -style earrings, and at the' shoe stands suntanned feet are squeezed into a new pair of sa- bots. The women go barefoot . most of the time, only wearing a pair of clip -clopping 'sabots for very wet weather, or for fiestas. Gradually as the escudos run out the families gather under the trees; the handsome carved yoke is put on the oxen; and they are hitched to primitive wooden carts. As the sun sets in•a great red ball, the roads of the Minho valley are lined with processions going home. The boys whip up the long- hornl:d oxen. The men side in the carts. The women and girls walk alongside, each one with Some new purchase on her head, a tall new water pitcher, brown bowls for the kitchen, a crock for rice or beans. And those flat baskets covered with clean white cloths - maybe inside a color- ed blanket, or hand-woven materials for a gay new skirt. The women wave as we pass and call out a cheerful "Boa Noite," Motor up Sleeve Handless persons, eligible for social aid in Western Germany, are looking forward to pneu- matic -controlled arms, This new advance in humanity, perfected by the orthopaedic clinic of Heidleberg University, promises much greater ease of movement than artificial arms normally allow their users, Embodied in the new device Is a small motor, driven by a carbonic acid -filled cell. The entire attachment is light- weight; it fits easily under the wearer's sleeve, The cell controls valves, which in turn react to movements of the shoulder stump or the stump's remaining muscles, This co-ordination gives extremely fine movements. And "hand" so actuated can make two move- ments simultaneously, if need be in opposite d$ections. Elec- trically -guided hands at pres- ent perform only one function at a time. According to German claims, patients should have no difficul- ty in using knives and forks, drinking from a glass, writing and even typewriting with their pneumatic hands, Commercial plywood as known today dates from 1905 when it was first made in SI, Johns, Ore- gon, ,, flood lucl: 30.

UNARM PRONT 612ussell The Canadian Chamber of Commerce is sponsoring - un- der the title "About Agriculture" -a series of publications dealing with the business of farming. The articles, written by men who appear to know what they are talking • about, are hard -Ilii= ting and of interest to all who would like to see a betterment in rural -urban relations, As an example, I quote herewith some paragraphs from a piece titled "Shifts In Land Use and the Need for Planning" by Gavin Henderson, Secretary of the Conservation Council of Ontario. • • • With a population of more than 30 million forecast for Can- ada by the end of the century, it is obvious that we cannot af- ford to go on using up our best land for purposes other than agriculture in the mistaken be- lief that there is lots of such land available. • * 4 Except for the Prairies, most of the best farmland in Canada is situated close to the. large cen- tres of population. With rapid post-war • industrialization and urban expansion, competition for the use of this land has become very. keen, and many thousands of acres have recently been con- verted to non-agricultural use, With proper .planning, much of this land might have been sav- ed, but so far we have no pro- gram of protection at all, not even of little pockets like the Niagara Fruit Belt which has special value due to climatic factors. • • * Since the war, at least one- fifth of this unique fruit -growing area has been taken over by in- dustry and housing. It is only a matter of time before conh- niercial • soft fruit production in the Niagara Peninsula will be a thing of the past. (In 1950 the net income to farmers and grow- ers in the district was $25,000,- 000.) * * • The rape of the fruitlands of Niagara is the classic example in Canada of what can happen for want of forethought and planning. It shows, too, that governments are not yet suffi- ciently concerned over the prob- lem to adjust their policies to deal with it. In the location of new highways, for instance, lit- tle consideration appears to be given to the real value of the land they will displace, or to their ultimate effect on the ag- ricultural areas through which they will pass. • • * In a recent brief from the Ontario Federation of Agricul- ture to the St• Lawrence Board of Review, ft was stated, "The Queen lizabeth Way, through the Countries of Lincoln and Wentworth, is responsible, more than any other single factor, for what will be the eventual destruction of the unique and irreplaceable fruit -growing area on the continent." • • * lled the Queen Elizabeth Way octween Hamilton and St. Cath• crines been put above the es- carpment, the fruit belt itself would likely have remained in. tact. Admittedly the cost of con• structlon would have been higher, but the ultimate savings would have been incalculable. * * • In a study made for Cornell University, it was found that the value of aricultur'al produc- tion for ten years on land re- quired for sections of the New York Thruway was greater than the cost of constructing those sections, It was also found that construction costs of a similar road over rougher terrain in the same area, would still have been less than the value of pro. elution lost from the land taken, • • • What has happened in the Niagara Peninsula is happening in varying degrees all over the country and in the U.S.A. South of the border, within the past fifteen years, about 17 million acres of the most fertile land have gone into home sites, indus- trial developments, highways and other non-agricultural uses. If withdrawals 'continue at the present rate for another fifteen years, a total of more than 100 million acres of land which was once suitable for cultivation, will have been permanently lost to agriculture. * * * We cannot stop the wheels of progress, We will continue to need space for industrial and ur- ban growth and for more and better highways. But in the pro- cess of expansion, let us not squander the true basis of pros. perity - the land which gives us our food. Wives, Girl Friends Sent Then to Jail When a lovely French girl re- cently heard her erring hus- band explaining in court that he could not afford to pay alimony, she indignantly decided to ' whisk the blinkers from the eyes of justice - and so ex- posed one of France's foremost criminals. Her husband, she asserted, wasn't at all the hard -up busi- ness man he pretended to be. He was a successful and astute safebreaker with proceeds from his robberies stowed away in four safe deposits. The French Silrete investi- gated her story, and as a result the man was sentenced to ten years' imprisonment. A single act of infidelity had upset his pretty wife - and so terminated a criminal career he had pursued undetected for nearly eight years. When his midnight absences from horse aroused her suspicion, Henriette began to check up on him with a wife's watchful eye and so discovered the startling truth. Cupid often traps criminals far more neatly than months of tireless police investigation. Even glamorous Venice - long a paradise of pickpockets -will be a happier place for this sum- mer's visitors as a result of tihe exposure of one light-fingered ace. When romantic couples alighted from gondolas, he would always be at the landing stairs to give them a helping hand in the moonlight, His other hand meantime deftly re- lieved the men of their wallets! On an average he lifted five wallets a day. Counting an average of $80 a wallet, and working only a three months' season, Carlo is estimated to have made $30,000 a year, Far from the, scene of his criminal activities, he owned a ,block of fiats at fashionable Juan les Pins, sported an ele- gant car and several flashy girl friends, While snatching wal- lets, his luck never failed. But when he tried to snatch a dia- mond necklet as a bauble for one of his pretty pets during a fashion ball at San Remo, he came to grief. Isis girl friend read a descrip- tion of the missing jewels and claimed the reward offered for the necklet, In the same' way, a 20 -year- old playboy stole hearts and other treasures along the French Riviera and none of the society women guessed the true occupation of the laughing $3,000 -a -month spender. Wives of rich industrialists offered to divorce their hus- bands and devote their lives to making him happy. Beauty queens fell for his stories of family wealth derived from ura- nium mines in the Congo, But one day he was unable to re- sist giving a girl friend some of the trinkets he had stolen. When she sent a bracelet to a jeweller for repair and clean- ing, he recognized it as stolen property. Later the handsome thief was identified by a Tan- giers jeweller as a man who had sold him stolen gems - and ultimately the philandering playboy confessed to the theft of $300,000 worth of stolen jewels. Electric Fans For Contented Cattle The United States Department of Agriculture has great news for steers and makers of electric fans, It was found that there is noth- ing like a fan to put beef on con. tented Herefords. It appears that the cooler they stay, the bigger they get. This was the finding of a re- cent Agriculture Department ex- periment in California's hot Im- perial Valley in which it was dis- covered that beef cattle cooled by a 42 -inch electric fan for 70 days gained 2.32 pounds a day per steer - over a pound more than unfanned Herefords could manage even in a day of furious cud chewing, Not only that, but the fanned cattle - seven of them alto- gether - ate less: only 924 pounds ,of feed for each 100 pounds of weight gained. The seven unfanned Herefords had to munch 1,330 pounds of hay and such to gain that much, Fanning is considered without a doubt the best thing yet found by experts who are looking for cooler cattle. Not even water sprays, air-cooled buildings and cooled drinking water are as good, they say. If put into wide use, fans might well usher in a new com- fort for cattle and a beefed-up prosperity for the cattle industry. Fan manufacturers and hard- ware stores would also prosper, and who knows, maybe it would even fire off a fresh new crop of cowboy songs.

Suffering as Christians 1 Peter 1:3-9; 5:6-11. Memory Selection: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. 1 Peter 5:7, Everyone has a measure of suffering during his lifetime. One lady I visited was very bit- ter about her suffering. As she lay on her bed year after year and watched others walk by her window she complained, "It isn't cricket". Her attitude aggravated her suffering, It made it more difficult for the others in the house, too. My next call was on a lady dying with cancer, Strong drugs were given her to dull the pain. But her attitude was so different. She was thankful that years ago she had surrendered her life to Jesus Christ. She was trusting in Him now, She was thankful for friends and all God's good- ness. Why the difference? The one was concentrating her thought upon herself and her illness. She looked at God only .to accuse Him. The other, though suffer- ing more intensely, had confi- dence in God's goodness just at she had when she was well. The experience was a trial of het faith. She was true in the trail. There are other forms of suf- fering, too. Marital unfaithful- ness and children's selfishness will cause severe heartache, Neighbours may "think it strange that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot speaking evil of you." But Peter said, "If any man suffer as a Christian, lel him not be ashamed; but let him 'glorify God on this behalf." Iie also said, "If ye suffer for right- eousness' sake, happy are ye," If we live by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ we can be triumphant in suffering. Such a victorious life is a witness to others, Some, when afflicted, have decided in a passive sort of manner, to make the best of it, One lady later determined to make the most of it. She began a telephone ministry. She called the sick and those in trouble of any kind and in a cheery voice gave them a message of comfort from the Bible. She helped to spread the sunshine of God's word, MATERNALLY YOURS - W i t 1 tender, loving care that is unt. versa) in all mothers, "Astra," e giraffe in the Rome, Italy, zoo, gives a cheerful but wet "good morning" kiss to her two-day old daughter, "Maya."
