vener of the lunch committee. Mrs.
Joe Babcock offered her home for the
next meeting. The Guide was read
and the topic: "School Milk" was dis-
cussed.
(1) There was a variety of opinions
regarding the necessity of placing milk
in the schools of this community. A3
we believed that with the baby bonus,
parents should be financially able to
procure intik for their children. What
we think is most necessary is to have
an educational program for parents and
children, impressing than with the
great food value of milk, and the ne-
cessity of all Canadians making more
use of it. It is cheaper and more bene-
ficial than pop. It could be used in
many ways, 'for example: puddings,
chocolate milk, milk shakes, escalloped
potatoes, etc. -
2, A school milk program would be
best operated by the School Board, and
supervised by the teachers. We would
prefer it given at a short rest period
in school session.
3, The milk in schools could be fin-
anced jointly by the Board, the pat-
ents, and a grant 'from the Govern-
ment, It would be beneficial to all
Canadians as it is not always the poorer
families who neglect to use sufficient
milk.

! Capacity Crowd For
Belgrave Fowl Supper
A capacity crowd over more than 800
attended the annual fowl supper at
Belgrave Wednesday night of last week,
ns once again a fine community effort
by the people of that district put forth
it solid effort on behalf of the arena
fund.
A fine supper was participated in by
all who attended, followed by an ex-
cellent program which was presided
over by Rev, Karl Krug, minister of
Belgrave United Church.
Artists appearing on the program
included members of the Belgrave Pipe
Band, the championship school chorus
picked at the Belgrave School Fair, the
Auburnettes, a popular ladies quartette
from Auburn, Mrs, Elaine Nixon, and
Clark Johnston,
Speeches were heard from Mr. Ctar•
cnce Hamra, supper chairman, L. E.
Cardiff, M.P., and John W, Hanna,
M.P.P.
A well attended dance• was held af-
ter the supper in the Forester's Hall.
Proceeds from the supper, which is
sponsored annually by the Arena
Board goes towards financing the win-
ter program at the arena, and also to
sponsor the midget. ball team, In oth-
er words all the net proceeds is use.!
to benefit the children of the com-
munity who get free skating through
out the winter season.
Biggest expense in connection with
the supper is the purchasing of 1,000
lbs. of turkey which amount it takes
to feed the huge crowd that always
attends.
Investigating
Seasickness
Having decided to travel by
liner to Canada to visit her
brother, a pretty, blonde Eng-
lish girl happily booked a $350
passage. But on the night the
liner steamed west, bound for
Montreal, her cabin was empty.
What had happened? Before
starting for Canada, the, liner
had made a one -day voyage,
with all passengers aboard, to
the Clyde. That was enough for
the girl who discovered for the
first time that she was prone to
seasickness.
She decided to get off the
ship, fearing she would have
worse attacks during the trip
to Canada. So she went ashore'
ai Grennock with her three new
suitcases and her brassbound
trunk.
Experts are now conducting,
for the first time a big -scale in-
vestigation into seasickness. Its
cause and cure have never been
systematically investigated and
it is still not known for certain
whether it is linked with the
question of diet.
One scientist says seasickness
is unaffected by what we cat,
drink or do, or what the sea
and the ship are up to. It is due
to mental causes, he says. The
tossing and rolling actually
suggest to ourselves that we
mus` be sick!
Another maintains that the
malady is caused by our ears.
Inside the ear are two little
tubes filled with liquid which
act as a kind of spirit -level. It
is thorugh their aid that we
keep our balance. If we turn
rapidly round several times
they are thrown out of gear
and we become dizzy, Seasick-
ness is caused, he adds, by the
violent motion to which they
are subjected. This gives the
brain a shock that is communi-
cated to the whole body.
Luton doctors were puzzled
in 1949 over the strange case
of a local woman who, after
seeing a sea film in a local
cinema, complained of feeling
unwell. She was taken to hos-
pital where her condition was
diagnosed as seasickness.
"This is the first case of its
kind I have ever known," com-
mented a doctor. "Seasickness
can be caused visually through
seeing the horizon going up and
down and in this case the mov-
ing horizon on the screen un-
doubtedly caused the illness,"

While tart fall apples are
plentiful, perhaps you'd like to
roast pork spareribs with a sweet,
tart apple stuffing. For 5-6 ser-
vings, buy 2 -rib sections that
match and weight about 2 pounds
each, Have the breastbones saw-
ed or cracked so it will be easy
to carve between the ribs.
APPLE STUFFING

% cup chopped parsley
2-3 tablespoons fat
5 tart apples, diced
% cup sugar
1 cup soft bread crumbs
Salt and pepper
Cook celery, onion and parsley
a few minutes in half the fat,
then remove from pan. Put re-
maining fat in pan, heat and add
diced apples. Sprinkle apples
with sugar, cover, and cook until

Can't Kill The Kilt
Because fewer people have
been wearing kilts since the war,
a society has been formed in
Scotland to make them more
popular. The society points out
that a boy wearing 'a kilt is a
rarity in Inverness and even in
Edinburgh, the capital of Scot-
land, most boys seem to pre-
fer trousers,
Lectures will be given this
autumn on how the kilt should
be worn and peoplo are being
asked to wear the kilt as their
• leisure dress.
The kilt as we know it today
dates back to the early part of
the seventeenth century, but
some of the oldest sculptures
in the world show the ancient
Assyrians in "kilts", while many
of. the conquering Romans and
the conquered Britons were also
kilted.
Attempt after attempt has
been made to kill the kilt. All
have failed. Parliament banned
the wearing of the kilt in 1747,
declaring it to be a symbol of
disloyalty, but the Act was re-
pealed about forty years later,
A good kilt story concerns the
South African War when a
chivalrous Boer commander, see-
ing kilted Highlanders in action
for the first time, refused to
order his men to "fire on
women".

Queer Places
To Hide Money
People who distrust banks and
fear burglars choose astonishing
hiding -places fur their money,
Some times they are so ingenious
in finding a "safe place" for it
that they forget where it is or
that it ever existed,
It's hard to believe that a man
could wrap •2400 in banknotes
round a cistern pipe—and then
move away from the house,
leaving it behind, A Liverpool
man did this. He forgot all about
the money until the next tenant
discovered it while checking the
lagging on the pipes,
A strange story of an old man's
forgotten hoard was told in
Dumbarton police court in 1927
when a petition was presented to
have the sum of 298 10s paid
over to him.
The son had been digging in
the garden at the rear of his
house when he unearthed a tin
can containing this sum in notes.
He reported his find to the po-
lice, little guessing that the own-
er was hi* own father who had
lived in the house for thirty
years and was now living else-
where.
The old man's memory had
failed and he had forgotten the
buried money until reminded by
the wide publicity given at the
time of the find.
The court decided that the
money should be paid over to
the old man, less ten pep cent
(the cost of the petition) and a
reward of ten per cent to the
son who found it,
Another thrifty old man, liv-
ing in Eire, got the shock of his
life when his wife told him she
had sold "that grubby old pil-
low" in the attic to a feather
merchant for is 9d.
It contained 2400, his life sav-
ings. Secretly and systematically
he had stuffed the pillow with
paper money, never telling his
wife, When he recovered from
the shock, he hurried in a neigh-
bour's van to the feather mer-
chant's premises, where he
bought back the pillow for 5s,
saying he wanted it for "senti-
mental reasons." The merchant
only learned months afterwards
what a fortune he had so nar-
rowly missed.
Police in Frankfurt, Germany,
are still looking for a thief who
stole $150 last year from the re-
frigerator of a man who thought
he had hit upon an ideal method
of safeguarding his cash. What
prompted the thief to open the
fridge remains a mystery,
It always puzzled a South
London housewife that her shop-
keeper husband kept an old
dustbin wedged in the corner of
a shed beneath a pile of rags
and other rubbish.
She always used another dust-
bin for household refuse and
could never understand why her
husband would never have the
shed bin emptied with it,
One morning she decided to
have her own way. When the
dustman called she asked him to
empty the second dustbin as well,
How, could she have known
that her eccentric husband kept
his savings in it and that as the
pile of rags went hurtling into
the dustcart more than £150
went with them?
He didn't discover his loss un-
til next day. Frantic with anxi-
ety, he dashed off to the local
council's offices and found that
the refuse was already at the
dump. When the officials realized
the situation, they ordered a
search for the score or more little
canvas bags in which the money
was stowed.
Hours passed, the owner fev-
erishly helping in the search.
Just as the men were due to
"knock off" for the day, his money
was found intact. He's kept it in
a bank ever since.
Bank officials say that even
today there are still some peo-
ple who firmly believe that once
their money goes into a bank
they are not likely to see it again.
They prefer to have it in hard
cash rather than as a figure in
a ledger.
As a result, these odd folk
hoard It in the strangest hiding -
places, although some women
seem to prefer to carry their
savings with them wherever they
go.
When an elderly woman was
knocked down in a Blackpool
street and rushed to hospital,
some 24,000 was found hidden
in dozens of special pockets she
had added to her garments, Each
pocket was either tightly stitched
or secured with strong pins,
A Bristol woman used to put
all her spare 21 notes into a
seldom -used electric washer. One
day she suddenly decided to use
the washer, forgetting it was also
her home "bank," By the time
she remembered, her 280 worth
of notes were churned to frag-
ments,
She sent them to the Bank of
England, but the experts could
piece together only fifty-four of
the notes. That woman's absent-
mindedness had cost her 226.
It is well known that coun-
try people living far from banks
sometimes hoard money. One
French peasant concealed his
notes by stuffing them- down the
barrel of a sporting gun which
hung on the wall of his kitchen,
Early next morning he saw a
hare run across his cottage gar-
den, forgot all about His savings
and fired the gun at it, blowing
his money into shreds,
Notes worth 2616 lOs were
found in a rusty candy tin which
tumbled down the chimney of a
Yorkshire house in 1946, They
were later restored to a widow
who had lived in the house for
twenty-five years.
The notes were hidden during
the first world war and then ap-
parently forgotten.
Even more unusual was the
way in which a fortune of 23,000
was discovered. A woman who
had inherited a Surrey house
from her father swatted a fly one
day with extra vigour and made
a hole in the thin wooden panel-
ling of a wall. Inside lay the
money her father had hidden
twenty years before. It had been
searched for in vain ever since
his death, for he had left no clue
as to its whereabouts.
In Victorian times, old and
disused tea-pots were favourite
Lost and Found
Workmen searched for eight
hours among massed of wilted

little while ago — looking for
a $3,000 platinum and diamond

The ring had been accidental-

not ,found, but the owner has
not given up hope, She knows
that lost wedding and engage-

for "they are very expensive,"
both husbands confided;
One day, when Tremlett was
in Sanga, a native arrived car-
rying in one hand a long stick
with a lettter stuck in a cleft
cut in the end, in the other a
bottle, The note was from an
entertaining fellow, Wallis Wil-
son, whom' he had met not long
•before on a ship sailing from
Durban,
As a young man, Wilson
made a fortune from Malayan
rubber, He spent foul• months
of each year In England, the
remainder abroad visiting
friends,
Passing through Kampala,
and hearing that Tremlett was
miles away "in the blue", he'd
bought the local hotel's only
bottle of Napoleon brandy as a
present for him, then hired a
local native, given him money,
and told him to travel until he
found Tremlett. He'd hitch-
hiked and walked nearly 300
miles: it had taken him a
month.
Later that bottle saved Trem-
lett's life. He was drinking with
a mining manager, Howard, and
his bookkeeper, Hodd, when the
latter picked up the rifle Trem-
lett had stood against the wall,
opened the breech, glanced
down the empty barrel, then
closed it, unaware that this ac-
tion loaded it from the maga-
zine,
Suddenly there was. a crash,
The hurricane lamps blotted
into darkness, the brandy bottle
burst and drenched Tremlett,
the • siphon ' exploded, chairs
crashed over as he and Howard
ducked under the table -How-
ard with a bullet through his
thighs, '
Hodd, for some reason, had
pulled the trigger with the rifle
pionted at Tremlett's chest, The
bullet hit the bottle, ricocheted
to the siphon, burst it, and
ploughed through ,the three-ply
table top to hit Howard in the
legs, Tremlett had a lump of
glass embedded in his chest,
pieces in his hair, and but for
the bottle would instantly have
been killed.
Tremlett mentions an inter-
esting South . African Dutch
custom, When the daughter of
the house has a suitor, a candle
was given her and placed in a
candlestick on a table near 'the'
Bible: When the old folk went
to bed the lamp was doused,
the candle lit, By the time it
had burned out, whether in
two nights or twenty, the suitor
was 'expected to declare hhn-
self, and i'f not accepted, depart,
But there seemed no rule
against 'blowing the candle out,
which not only prolonged its
lite but "made the nights more
cosy"!
His description of mining life
and the country is admirable.
The book records a most un-
usual and interesting career.
Rainy Records
An all-time world record for
rainfall is being claimed for July
10th, 1955, for a placC nes'
Jefferson, Iowa,
In the early hours of that day,
storm rainfall fell at a rate of
0.69 inches a minute, according
to an official recording guago of
the U.S. Weather Bureau, For-
tunately it did not fall at that
rate for Jong, : for in an hour
that would amount to nearly
three • and';a half feet of water:
A radar set fifty-five miles pick-
ed up echoes bj the stdrm.
For a: similarly high , rate,
weather experts have had to go
back to 1920 when 0.65 inchi's
of rain a minute were recorded
ir. California, though in 1911
there was n doubtful claim for
0.82 inches a minute from Pnna-

A variety of factors influence
egg quality and many of these
can be controlled by the pro-
ducer, Strains of birds differ
in their ability to produce eggs
with good albumen, freedom
from blood spots and good
shells, so a strain of birds not
tpable of producing eggs of
the desired quality should be
replaced by a better strain,
Good poultry management
must be emphasized because
good management is reflected in
egg quality, Only healthy pul-
lets in good condition should
be housed and confined
throughout the laying period.
Confinement assists in disease
control and thus has an influ-
ence on egg quality.
Egg storage temperature must
be checked closely as high
temperatures reduce egg shell
quality and change thick albu-
men to thin watery albumen.
If eggs are gathered three to
four times daily, and laying
pens are properly ventilated
this danger can be partially re-
duced, Eggs should be cooled as
quickly as possible and this
cooling process should be thor-
ough before eggs are placed in
cool egg cases, Storage tempera-
ture should be from 50 to 60 de-
grees F., and humidity 70 to 75
degrees. Eggs take on "off" fla-
' vors readily so should not be
stored in the vicinity of products
with strong odors such as onions.
Marketing eggs several times a
week helps maintain high qual-
ity. An ample supply of calcium
must be made available for lay-
ers ss egg shell is about 95 per
cent calcium carbonate,

In swine breeding work, the
best possible parent material
must be selected, The only
method presently available
whereby meat quality of differ-
ent litters may be compared,
requires the slaughter and car-
cass measurement of a sample
of pigs from each ,litter and
appraisal of the diffeent litters
on the basis of the carcasses of
their slaughtered litter mates.
By chance the samples slaught-
ered might include the best pigs
of the litter, which not only
represents a. loss of breeding
stock • but also slows down an
improvement program. If it
were possible to measure car-
cass quality on a living pig,
more pigs of .the best litters
would be available as breeding
stock, fr, H, T. Fredeen an
other members of the Animal
Husbandry staff at the Lacombe
Expreimental Farm, Canada
Department of Agriculture, are
attempting to determine carcass
quality on live hogs through the
use of X-ray and measurement
of fat thickness.
• f a
Day old pigs are X-rayed and
from the film, the vertebrae
and number of ribs are,counted.
Eventually this information
may give indications of the po-
tential carcass quality of the
animal, The hogs are X-rayed
once again at 200 pounds weight
and in addition to vertebrae
and rib studies, fat thickness on
the back of the hog is record-
ed. This information is then re-
lated to actual carcass quality
after slaughter.
A more rapid and less expen-
sive measure of fat thickness on
the live hog can be obtained by
the use of what is known as a
Lean Meter, This is a needle-
like apparatus consisting of two
electrodes insulated from one
another, The needle is intro-
duced into the animal and the
resistance of the flesh to a very
small electrical current is
measured on a meter, 1t is pow-
ered by 2 pen -light batteries.
Fat, due to its composition, has
a greater resistance to electri-
city than lean meat, so when
the needle passes from fat to
lean it is indicated on the
meter, and the depth of fat re.'
corded in this manner.
* *
The Lean Meter was develop-
ed by research men at Purdue
Uni iersity and is used fairly
widely by research workers in
the United States. It is gradu-
ally replacing an earlier meth-
od of 'fat measurement where
the skin was slit with a scalpel
and the layer of fat measured
wit) a small ruler. The Lean
l.Ieter is practically painless
and can be used to measure the
fat anywhere on the animal's
body, At present it is in use at
several swine research units in
Canada,
* * *
The use of X-ray was pio-
neered by German workers and
their results were sufficiently
encouraging so that Danish
Swine Testing Stations have in-
.talled X-ray . equipment in
tlhei. test piggeries.
* * *
No country as yet relies on
this equipment as a measure of
carcass quality to the point
where the slaughter test is
eliminated , Work is progress-
ing nicely at Lacombe and Dr.
Fredeen is hopeful that he may
come up with information
which will eventually eliminate
slaughter of potential breeding
stock. X-ray equipment is cost-
ly which, together with its size
and weight, makes it of unlike-
ly use for other than research
purposes, The Lean Meter, on
the other hand, is a compara-
tively cheap, uncomplicated in-
strument weighing but a few
pounds and may prove of con-
siderable practical value to
swine breeders who wish to Im-
prove the carcass quality, spe-
cifically fat content, of their
pigs.
Pigs Arrested
As Drunks
The effect of alcohol on anI-
mals was discussed recently at
a meeting of veterinary surgeons
in Germany. One vet mentioned
the case of a young elephant
which visited' a Kaffir kraal in
the Zambesi valley some time
ago and emptied six out of eight
large pots of beer which he
found in native hu He tjlen
"staggered away" into t h e
jungle.
A New York animal expert
revealed in 1949 that he had
treated twenty-five cattle for
drunkenness in a week while
visiting a farming area. He
blamed it all on a sudden gale
which knocked down bushels of
green apples. The cattle ate
them ,and the apples fermented
in their stomachs forming alco-
hol, he explained.
Snorting, hiccupping, swaying
pigs flopped out of a railway
truck at Sarreguemines, France,
a week or two ago. "Blind
drunk", was the verdict of a
veterinary surgeon, after gen-
darmes had arrested six of the
disorderly characters -all pedi-
gree pigs, It turned out that
somewhere along the line the
truck was shunted and lurched.
Out of their cages tumbled the
pigs. And out of two broken
casks flowed fresh Bordeaux
wine. The pigs drank the lots
SCIIOOL
LESSON
BY REV R HAICCI.AY
WARREN B.A. B.D.
The Shepherd Psalm
Psalm 23
Memory Selection: The Lord le
my shepherd; I shall not want.
The twenty-third Psalm is tho
best known and the most loved
passage in the Old Testament
David, the Shepherd who be-
came king, has expressed thi
musings of a sheep with dee;
meaning for us in our relation
to God. Sheep instinctively know
when folded for the night that
the one who cared for them that
day will guide them safely or
the morrow. In the early morning
he leads them first to the rough•
er herbage and then to the richer
grass. They lie down in greer
pastures about 10 a.m. to chess
their suds. They will not drini
gurgling water. The shepheri
will find a place or make ono
where the water is still. Eacl
day the sheep in the Holy Land
leaves its place in the feeding
line and has a few minutes com-
munion with the shepherd.
The Valley of 'the Shadow of
Death in Palestine is a narrovt
defile through a mountain range.
Climatic and grazing conditions
make it necessary to take rho
sheep through this dangerouo
passage for season feeding each
year. If a sheep slips from the
narrow path the shepherd will
raise him with his crook. If dogs
come near the shepherd wili hurl
his staff at them with accurate
aim. In the Spring the shepherd
goes before cutting out the pois-
onous plants. Each night as the
sheep enter the fold the shop•
herd applies the oil to any cut'
and presents the large overflow-
ing cup of cold water for re-
freshment. The sheep goes to
rest contented.
As the shepherd cares for his
sheep so the Lord cares for those
who love him. At 2 a.m. we were
called to mother's bedside in the
hospital. I quoted this Psalm,
Whets I said, "Yea, though I
walk through the valley of the
shadow of death, I will fear no
evil: for thou art with me." she
softly whispered her last words,
"Yes, Jesus is with me," If we
have fully committed our lives
to Jesus Christ, the Good Shep-
herd, we can enter in happiness
and contentment into the full
rich living set forth in the twen-
ty-third Psalm.

IT RUNS ON PARAFFIN OR ANYTHIN' - The Rover T-3, Britain's
latest gas -turbine car, goes on display, following tests by the
British Motor Industry Research Association. Fuel consumption
of the car, not yet in production, has been described as "reason-
able". During tests at 40 miles per hour, the T-3 did 13.8 miles
per gallon of "paraffin", British terminology for "kerosene".
On a high-speed test track, the Rover was timed at 102 miles
per hour with plenty of power in reserve. The T-3 features a
four-wheel drive and a glass •einforced plastic body.

' "Dear Anne Hirst: So many
letters you print are about, in-
law troubles that I just must
atick out by matronly neck, Isn't
it because too many mothers
think their children are perfect
-- especially their sons? When a
boy marries and trouble comes,
Mom promptly declares it's the
wife's fault — 'my darling boy
could never be wrong!' I've seen
this too often.
"Both my sons have been mar-
ried seven years, and their wives

word ••et. I honestly think it is
because I was never the devoted
Mamma who stood up for her

enough (or is it a talent you
have or you haven't?) to be able
io see their wives' sides, too, and
recognize the weaknesses of my
boys; I never hesitated to say so.
Even when both were to blame
t was frank about it, and the
girls understood.
"Perhaps I succeeded because

They were my own daughters. I
never encouraged their bringing
troubles to me; it came about
naturally. When I could, I re-

TO "HAPPY MOTHER-IN-
LAW': Your attitude toward
your sons sums up my own
theory: Being a mother should
not blind one to her children's
weaknesses. It is too bad that
your attitude is so rare. Your
good letter should inspire many
another mother to be more
objective in her judgment.
Thank you for it. ,

MARRIAGE FORBIDDEN
"Dear Anne Hirst: I'm begin-
ning to hate my mother. She's
just told me I can't marry the,
man I'm wild about, He was mar-
ried before, he is 30, and has
three children. I am 10, Since I
met him, all my old boy friends
look so silly; but when I'm with
him I'm so happy that I can
hardly wait for the next date.
"My mother even says I
cruldn't look after his children
properly! I've always loved
children, and I know she is
'y
wrong. She has a boy friend all
picked out for me. I used to like
him, but now I feel I'm just
wasting time with him. Aren't
I old enough to know what I
want?

1 would agree with your
mother even if the children
were not involved. To marry
a man nearly twice your age
is too great a risk, and she
knows it. You do not realize
how selfish he is being to have
tried to win you. He has daz-
zled you with his sophistica-
tion, he has flattered you un-
til you have lost your sense
of reality Once this glamor
of his wears off, you would
bt' sorry you ever met high.
As to the children, these
gay evenings you've enjoyed
with their fatter would be fin-
ished. You'd he tied down to
a set routine so foreign to your
present freedom that you
would long desperately for
these careless days.
'fell him you cannot think of
marrying for three or four
years, and if he still wants
you then, you will consider it,
Nlcanwhile, stop seeing him.
Look up this nice boy you used
to like, and date him and others
your age. Enjoy the fun that
belongs to teen years, and watt
until you are grown up before
you think of marrying any-
body.
In in-law situations, it is dif-
ficult to be fair — but the mother
who admits her children are not
perfect is the one beloved by the
mates they marry. Write Anne
Hirst about your problems, and
lest her guide you wisely. M -
dress her at Box 1, 123 Eh ht-

One week has gone by with
our imported increase in the fa-
mily. Fortunately the weather
has been' good most of the time
so the little girls have been
playing outside quite a lot—with
Partner keeping an eye on them
from his work bench in the dri-
ving -shed, I tell him he . is a
typical grandfather—he has so
much patience. Or is that typi-
cal? I wonder! Nancy has a cold
and is also cutting a tooth , . ,
enough said, Carol, like so many
other youngsters, including Dave,
plays with her food and never
eats a decent 'meal. What these
fussv little eaters live on is be-
yond me. I am beginning to won-
der if all the wonderful baby
foods on the market today are
really so good after all. Perhaps
if the modern way of feeding
were combined with some of the
commonsense of yesterday we
might get somewhere. I may be
wrong but •it seems that nowa-
days children are loo food -con-
scious so that their meal -lime
habits are mostly psychological.
I can't remember asking our
children what they would like
for dinner or supper. They wee©
given what I thought they
should have and they ate, most
of the lime without too much
fussing, Ah well, I suppose every
generation has its problems in
raising a family, In years gone
by, before the advent of pasteur-
ization and penicillin, it was a
case of the survival of the fit-
test. Now the greatest hazard
for children is on the road, A
few days ago a Guelph magis-
trate announced that in his opin-
ion parents who provided young
children with bicycles to ride
on the road were guilty of neg-
ligence, How tragically true,
'twice recently I was driving
along a busy two-lane highway
near here after school was out
- and on each occasion I saw a
little fellow, not more than
seven years old, riding his mini-
ature two wheel bicycle home
from school. Just to see him
made my blood run cold—espe-
cially as I had to get over into
the wrong lane of traffic to allow
hien extra room. One always has
to be prepared for unexpected
wobbling front young riders.
We had a very sharp thund-
erstorm here Saturday night. It
was playing tricks with the tele-
vision so we decided to discon-
nect the set. About five minutes
later there was an car -shattering
crack. We are sure something
was hit but we don't know yet
what it was. Partner thought
from the sound it might have
been a tree split in two. Was 1
glad I had disconnected the TV --
we wouldn't have been very
happy had the picture tube
blown out. Wouldn't that be aw-
ful with the World Series in
progress? Personally, I wouldn't
worry. I don't understand base-
ball at all so I don't bother to
watch.. All I am interested in is
the final score. Of course Part-
ner likes to watch the games.
I'm thinking it is a good thing
the games come on early in the
afternoon otherwise quite a few
farmers might be late with their
chores!
I wonder how its many read-
ers are liking the new set-up' of
the Family Herald—minus the
Weekly Star. Of course it is an
improvement but yet one also
has a sense of loss. Most of us
had a comfortable feeling about
the old Family Herald—the sort
of affectionate feeling one has
for a well-worn but comfortable
old jacket with which one has
weathered many a storm. But
of course we realize there are
bound to be advantages and dis-
advantages in such a move. This
is the first major change that
has taken place in the Family
Herald in my memory so natur-
ally we hope it will be a change
that eventually everyone will
welcome. Certainly the type is
easier to read on better grade
paper and the smaller pages
make it easier to handle. We are
glad so many of the regular fea-
tures have been retained—ex-
cert that we don't like seeing
"Dorothy Dix" resurrected week
after week! While she was living
she did a wonderful job but why
should her advice supposedly be
continued when we know she is
one the far side of the Pearly
Gates? On the other hand it may
be that a good many readers are
unaware that Dorothy Dix passed
away some years ago.
This is Thanksgiving weekend
and I expect many people are
travelling the highways and by-
ways admiring the lovely col-
ouring of the trees that is so
typically Canadian. It is years
since the leaves have taken on
such deep rich shades of crimson
and gold. Even the pastures are
unusually green, none of them
having that brownish -dried out
look that we so often see at this
time of the year. In fact the
country is so breath -takingly
beautiful it would be strange
indeed if we did not look around
with a prayer of Thanksgiving
in our hearts. Thanksgiving be-
cause no matter what troubles
there are in the world of men,
God in his Heaven showers
riches upon us in this bountiful
world of Ills creating—a world
whose beauty changes only with
the seasons of the year, Peter
McArthur said of Autumn —
"The days are not only worth
describing separately, but worth
living separately. Each one is
complete in itself." I don't think
I could close this column with a
better thought than that.
Trading Stamps
So great is the vogue for the
use of trading stamps that a
conference has been called in
New York State to look into the
effects of this new device in the
market place. The discussion has
been requested by Dr. Persia
Campbell, conhumer counsel to
Governor Harriman,
A wide variety of opinions is
likely to be forthcoming as to
the value of the stamp plan
either to stores or to consumers.
It has been in use in America
for about 60 years, The current
boom seemh to have started in
Denver and to have spread to
supermarkets, drugstores, gaso-
line stations, greenhouses, lum-
ber yards, and all sorts of other
retailers until it is estimated
that half the families in the
United States are saving stamps
to exchange for electric appli-
ances, kitchenware, a t h l e t i c
goods, cameras, and other prem-
iums,
The chief argument aroused is
or the question whether the cus-
tomer drawn to a certain store
"because they give stamps" is
really getting something "free"
for saving a bookful of the lit-
tle colored squares or whether
she is paying more for her gro-
ceries and the premium than if
she shopped around and bought
them separately,
The theory of the stamp com-
panies is that the "gifts" are a
bonus to customers for paying
cash — which is reasonable
enough in this charge - account
era — and that they are an ef-
fective promotional device for
the storekeeper, On the latter
'point there has been little dis-
pute of late. Many stores have
found purchasers more attracted
by stamps than by price cuts.
but how long this effect will
last may be problematical.
A simple rule has been sug-
gested which shoppers can read-
ily apply for themselves. In gen-
eral, the cash value of the stamp
given is about 2 per cent of the
purchase on which it is based.
If prices are equal at the stamp
and the nonstamp store, the
trader is getting a bargain. If
they are, say, 5 per cent higher
at the stamp -giving store, the
buyer is deluding himself. From

the ropes for his 1071h profes-
sional bout at 37, a married
man with a large family and a
reputation of newt* having lost
by a knockout. runney, ten
years younger and aching for a
crack at Jack Dempsey's crown,
needed a clear-cut victory over
GIbbons to earn that title shot,
The Police Gazette Ringsider
at the Polo Ground that night
wrote of the battle:
"Tom fought a strictly defen-
sive fight and a poorly -conduct-
ed defensive one at that. Only
once — in the eighth round —
•did he make any serious at-
tempts to carry an offensive
against the enemy.
"In that round he lashed out
in a belated desperate rally.
When he did let fly for Tun-
ney's jaw, he connected solidly
with both right and left 'swings
and hooks. The punches really
upset Gene's composure for the
moment, but they were not de-
cisive blows, and. furthermore,
Gibbons made no attempts to
follow up his momentary ad-
vantage.
"With these few exceptions,
Gibbons was invariably short
with his leads. It was seldom,
In fact, that Gibbons essayed to
come out of his shell and make
a fight of it. Mostly he was on
the defensive, perpetually danc-
ing out of harm's way, and
keeping a blockade of gloves
and elbows forever in front of
his face and chin."
Then came the twelfth round
and the Ringsider wrote:
"Whether it was carelessness,
1 hether Tom was so arm -
weary he couldn't raise his
dukes, or whether he just 'took
one' to get the agony over with,
we cannot say,
"But we do know that he
• offered a wide open target, for
1'unney simply walked in close
and swished a short right, half -
arm hook to the asp, and Gib-
bons slumped slowly to the
floor of the ring.
"He didn't pitch forward as
some of the a boys do when an
adversary nails them square on
the button for a clean and total
knockout, Nor did he flop back-
wards, kicking. His arms simply
fell to his side and he keeled
ever sidewise, easily, almost de-
liberately,
"There was pandemonium
around the sweltering arena
when the crowd sensed what
had• happened, Gibbons down!
First time ever knocked off his
feet) Thousands of voices ech-
oed and re-echoed in the mur-
ky reaches of the giant bowl—
bedlam crashed downwards from
the upper tiers of the steel oval,
"Gibbons slumped down on
hands and knees. He lay prop-
ped up on one elbow in the
pot, of the 'Dying Gladiator'
Tanney backed away into his
own corner whilst the count
proceeded to seven, whereupon
Tom scrambled to his feet and
with trembling legs spread
wide apart, tottered backwards
towards his one angle of the
ring, only to have Tunney, now
seer ting victory by the knock-
out route, pounce upon him
mercilessly,
"Tom was badly muddled,
There was no semblance now of
the vaunted Gibbons defense.
Tom was wide open, wobbling,
pitiful in his helplessness as
with head bent forward, knees
and torso shaking like a poplar
in a hurricane, he awaited the
final blow,
"With the impact of the sec-
ond short and jarring sock to
the point of the chin, Gibbons
alid again to the floor, He
wasn't put to sleep. He wasn't
'cuckoo' as the boys say, He
was just a badly beaten, sadly
muddled, middle-aged shell of
a fighter who had carried the
pitcher once too often to the
well, and in addition, gone out
of his class:
"Gibbons tried, to get up,
tottered to his feet just at the
count of ten, But Dick Nugen
of Buffalo, the referee, saw that
Tom had enough. He waved a
hand and the fight was officially
over.
For Tom Gibbons, that hot
night at the Polo Grounds
marked the end of the trail. He
quit the ring, returned to his
native St. Paul and his family.
A prominent and well -liked
figure in Minnesota boxing
circles, Gibbons is now a county
Sheriff in St. Paul. Although
it's been a quarter-century
since Tunney floored him, law-
breakers don't fool with Tom-
my even now, After all, Gene
was the only man who ever
knocked Gibbons off his feet.

CLAIMS THE HEART OF TEXAS — Genovevo Rodriquez y
Hinojosa, 48, displays some of the documents which will, he
says, prove his claim to 750,000 acres of southern Texas.
Hinojosa bases his claim on a Spanish land grant to his great -
great -grandfather more than 125 years ago and on an American
land patent to the area issued in 1888. Within the claimed
territory are the city of Corpus Christi and some 20 other com-
munities, Riggers Local 575 of Detroit, Mich, is so impressed
by American -born Hinojosa's clrim that it is setting up a fund
to finance the long court fight ahead,
When The Hunting Season Starts
October dawned bright and
clear in these parts, although it
looked just like the last of sep-
tembe", and at first I_didn't par-
ticularly notice the chance, But
later, when the significant dif-
ference was called to my atten-
tion, I went and got my red hat.
The opening of the bird season
is observed faithfully around
here.
I've been repairing my spring.
My pipeline froze up during that
long cold spell we had last win-
ter, and we were without run-
ning water for time enough for
me to resolve it would not hap-
pen again. I started remedial
and preventive alterations as
soon as the frost went out of
the ground. I didn't rush the
job, because it isn't the kind of
job that needs rushing, and I
had all summer,
The spring is on the side hill
back of the buildings and has
been gently and abundantly
flowing excellent water for a
long time, Grandfather dug out
the basin and stoned it up when
he was a young man, using oxen
and hired hands who shared a
degree of mental and muscular
complexion which suited them
ideally for the task. Some of the
boulders are as big as pianos.
Then when I came along I ran
a pipe from the spring to the
house without disturbing any of
his rock work, and with an elec-
tric pump was in business.
Gramp's job is still all right
up to a point, but in order to cap
the thing over with cement I
had to go down a ways and level
back, I had to put in a plank
form and provide for a remov-
able cover, designing the thing
s'1 I could get my planks out af-
ter I ran the concrete. My aim
was to fix the place so freak
winters would never again shut
us off. And having no oxen and
hired hands, I fixed up simple
machines out of the elementary
psysics book, dawdled along as
I felt like it, and found the pro-
ject an interesting and enter-
tuining summer diversion.
I rigged a tripod and chainfall
with which I hoisted out the
rocks I couldn't lift, and made
a ramp so I could back the trac-
tor -trailer beneath them and
haul them away, It worked fine,
and as September waned I could
see that all would be finished in
ample time.
So on the first day of October
I was down inside the spring,
standing on n plank platform
just above the water line, point-
ing up the masonry just prior to
starting up the cement mixer,
making sure my new work would
join properly with Gramp's old
work, and I carne up out of the
hole to find a beautiful dog
pointing at me. It was a lady
dog, andf just as I discovered her
my dog, Prince, leaped on his
feet from a snooze and exhibited
great interest In her presence.
Prince is a lady's man, and he
was glad. The other dog, being
a bird hound, held her point
rigidly and we looked each other
in the eye warily. Prince tried
to disengage her attention, but
she knew her obligations and
with one front paw in the air
and her tail as stiff as a ramrod
she pointed at me inflexibly, 'It
is a disturbing thing to find, in
a Maine October, that some-
body's bird dog thinks you are a
partridge.
I looked beyond the bird dog's
motionless shoulder, and saw her
master stealthily coming my way,
fowling piece at the ready. He
was clearly shortsighted, and
was peering eagerly, I could see
he didn't want to blast away
until he might see something
move and he could locate the av-
erage direction.
I called a cheery greeting to
him, and momentarily he show-
ed that he was surprised to hear
a partridge speaking English.
But .lie quickly recovered and
said it was a lovely day, an ob-
servation with which I concurr-
ed, and said he•was out to do a
little hunting,
The dog remained at a sharp
point, ignoring even Prince and,
ass this now seemed an absurd
project to pursue, the 'gentle-
man on the other end of the gun
pulled out a little whistle which
he blew lustily, but being one of
those whistles only a dog can
hear it didn't make any noise,
His dog paid no attention and
continued to point me, evident-
ly expecting me to take off and
fly away any minute, but Prince
who has sensitive ears, ran off
at once into the woods and I
haven't seen him since. Anything
louder than the jarring of a
cookie b o w 1 cover offends
Prince.
The hunter then felt his way
along by setting each 'foot out
front gingerly and worked his
way up to my springhole, and I
think he might have fallen in if
his dog hadn't been in the way,
He was wearing a fine olive-
green hunting costume spang
out of the catalogue, with ample
zipper game pocket, Wrier an
ax and utility cord, and had on
at least thirty dollars worth of
boots. His cap was livid red,
adorned with a fish and game
club emblem showing crossed
shotguns with leaping deer and
salmon, and a cock pheasant in
a field of wheat. "Don't fall in
the spring," I said,
He said, "1 wonder, can you
tell me — have I got this thing
loaded right?"
Thus I realized it was now Oc-
tober, and our sylvan acres would
be populated daily by gentle-
men wilt expected a farmer to
leap up and fly away if he is
pointed, I suggested to this
gentleman that his best chance
would be down along the east
line, starting at the big pine and
working through the swamp, I
never knew any birds to be in
there, and the growth is too
thick t� swing a gun if any
should appear, but it is a fine
place to test new boots to see if
they leak, I always send hunters
it there and they thank me.
(Last year only four times did
we have to form a posse and go
in after lost hunters, but twice
it was for the same man,)
This gentleman thanked me,
stumbled over my shovel, con-
sulted his compass, and took off
with the dog stopping every ten
feet to point. After he was gone
t went up to the house and dug
out my red cap, and for a month
I shall sing songs, loudly, at my
work, Nonbird songs. By John
Gould in The Christian Science

Our Manpower
At Low Ebb
Strength of Canada's armed
forces has fallen to its lowest
figure in two years.
A Defence Department spokes-
man said the strength of the
forces at the end of July—latest
figure available — was 115,982.
The breakdown: Navy, 16,824;
Army, 47,397; R,C.A,F., 49,761.
Toward the close of 1954, ser-
vice manpower stood at about
117,000. In March of the same
year it was 112,500.
The manpower ceiling set for
the armed forces is 120,000 —
20,000 for the navy, 49,000 for
the army and 51,00 for the air
force, At the end of March last
year, total strength stood at 118,-
077, the highest figure reached
since the defence buildup started
with outbreak of the Korean War
in 1050.
An army official said the army
is trying hard to recruit men,
especially in the infantry, but is
having trouble. He added that
recruiting always appears to be
slower in summer than in win-
ter and particularly in prosper-
ous times.
The shortage of army man-
power is shown in the strength
of the Regiment of Canadian
Guards. The regiment has four
battalions which normally would
have a strength of about 900 men
each, But not one of the batta-
lions has more than 500 men.
The 1956-57 white paper on
defence, issued by the govern-
ment earlier this year, said:
"Provision has been made for
some increase in strength in the
navy and air force."
But the figures show the
strength isdecreasing rather
than increasing though some im-
provement may be made this
coming winter. The R,C.A,F. par-
ticularly needs more men be-
cause the number of home de-
fence CF -100 night -fighter squa-
drons will be increased from
nine to 12.
The air force hopes to pick up
AL least seine men for these new
squadrons when the N.A.T.O.
Aircrew Training Scheme in Ca-
nada is reduced. This process
will begin in about 15 months.
