No one in the club knew that Lion Robert could "tickle the ivories" as the old saying goes. One of his pupils let the cat out of the bag after hearing him on the sch:ol piano, He responded to the request of the president to take over the musical accompaniment, and came through with a noble effort. He should be fined for hiding his talent, but it is hoped he will continue in Mr.; McDou call's absence. Guests at the meeting were Rev. Brea deVries and Mr. A. H. Wilford. Musically, A. H.

Mr. Wilford remarked that Saturday, March 16th was his birthday and to commemorate the oc- casion, he was donating space for 4 booth at the Trade Fair in May, to the Lions Club from which they may con- duct a peanut sale. Mr. Wilford said it was 52 years since he lett Blyth. On this particular occasion he was re• dedicating himself to the promotion of Western Ontario. He spoke of a pro- posed plan he had to bring prominent purebred stock men and men repro• senting the potato chip industry on a busman's tour of this district, and hoped to interest them in Western On- tario development. Lion Art Watson introduced the Rev. Bren deVries, the guest speaker. Mr. deVries very ably chose as bis subject the second Commandment: "Thou Shalt Love Thy Neighbour as Thyself," applying It to conditions in the t,'orld today from the community level to world affairs. The complete application of this Commandment would solve all the world's problems. Individuals and nations must forget their own prejudices and selfish inter- ests, •and work for the salvation of the world, said Mr. deVries. A vote of thanks was tendered htni by Lion Nolunan Garrett. Lion Grover Clare received the mon- ey frim the fine box to start a hank account for the twins. Jon and Joanne. Besides the Peanut Sale to be held in May, the Lions have set the date for their annual Smorgasbord which will be held Easter holiday week, Tuesday, April 23rd. This is one of the out- standing events of the year, and has proven most p=pular with the public. The meeting closed with the Roar.

London Auctions Thrill Visitors To climb the staircase to one of London's famous auction rooms is to step back in time to the Victorian, or even the Georgian era. There is a sense of qulet dig- nity in the proceedings which lifts the auctions out of mere commercialism. The catalogue descriptions are in vivid detail and one can almost feel the sheen of rose or satinwood. American collectors in par- ticular are finding a good mar- ket for their objects d'art at Sotheby's and Christie's since the ban on importing these for rale was lifted, At Christie's a small collection Of late Chinese porcelain sent over from the United States recently provided the occasion for spirited bidding, much of It from Holland. The lots included some of the rarest examples of the products of the Chinese kilns of the 17th and 18th cen- turies, splendid, colorful pieces which astonished our ancestors when they first reached the Western world. Both Christie's and Sotheby's were founded in the 18th cen- tury; since then they have of- fered for sale some of the world's most famous art treas- ures, Visitors are welcome to attend the sales and to inspect the works of art displayed in the rooms usually on the day before the sale. At Sotheby's one walks up the short wide staircase to the four rooms on the first floor where the walls are covered with priceless tapestries and pictures and the cases filled with the finest china from many parts _of the world. On the floor one may walk over an Aubusson rug or a beautiful Bokhara. The auctioneer stands in the "pulpit" with a clerk seated at a desk below him. In front of him dealers sit at green baize tables, talking in whispers and taking notes. The rooms at current sales are filled with dealers acting as agents, dealers in their own right, with private buyers and those who are merely there to watch proceedings. From the poker-faced crowd It is difficult to see who is bid- ding against whom, but there is no secret about the buyer, un- less he deals through an agent. The auctioneer announces the purchaser when the bidding stops. On a recent visit the crowd surged into the rooms for the sale of a Stradivarius violin. Many violins come to the show- rooms with the great master's label inside. Few turn out to be genuine. When one ,does, the bidding is a lively duel, flitting from $1,500 on this day to $9,900 in a few seconds. For this sum the bidder had acquired "a very fine Stradivarius violin" with varnish of a beautiful am- ber to brown, in excellent pre- servation, of the year 1703; with two bows, one silver, one gold - mounted. The crowd of sight -seers SALLY'S SALLIES "Please, please, sir; you're blocking my view of the jury." flowed out as the hammer fell on the Strad, Genuine dealer! in musical ' instruments re- mained to bid for the 19th cen- tury mechanical organ or the rare dulcimer, the Georgian spinet, or the Italian clovichord of perhaps 1700. Echoes of the musical heyday 'of Haydn, Mozart, and J. S. Bach were recalled by an English piano of that period, the earliest, surviving grand pianoforte by Johannes Broadwood, 1788. The original instructions for tuning and caring for the instrument were still behind the, name board, Perhaps it was a reflec- tion on the size of moder'n drawing rooms that this early piano went for $165. In the furniture section, the catalogue conjures up all the curls and twists of the Victorian era, with its white -capped par- lor maid and green baize- aproned manservant flipping round with feather brush and duster, Side tables had giltwood stands centered by lions' masks and with drapery held in the beaks of griffins.

The department of defense has di- rected its officials on state -side military bases on' which depend- ent children live to fluoridate the domestic water supply used by resident families, The fluoridation of water to protect children's teeth from de- cay has become a controversial matter in many local communi- ties where it has been proposed. Its advocates include various professional dental societies and individuals sincerely concerned with public health. Opponents include other persons who, for one reason or another, do not want their water "doctored" be- fore it reaches their homes. The question has been settled by vote in some localities... Military personnel and their families are always subjected to all sorts of rules and regulations, and many will take the fluorida- tion order in stride. The na- tional defense department direc- tive, however, does appear to take a rather basic freedom of choice away from the individual citizen who happens to be quar- tered 9n a military base. Regardless of the merits or de- merits of fluoridation, there seems to be little reason why it should be imposed upon the children of an airman in the name of national defense, with- out the consent of the majority of families scheduled to be treat- ed.— Spokesman -Review (Spo- kane, Wash.)

They came from the Rhine area of Germany, where the word "Deutsch" meant "the folk" of that region. The term "Dutch" was applied to them by English-speaking people of colo- nial times who misunderstood the immigrants when they said, "Ich bin Deutsch." But the Amish and other members of the Plain sects who settled on the Pennsylvania frontier soon demonstrated what are so often considered German traits of thrift and frugality. They raised - bumper crops of white potatoes in the fine rich soil of the new world, and the womenfolk made delectable dishes from them that astonish- ed and delighted the English settlers, writes Mabel Slack Shelton in The Christian Sci- ence Monitor. They grated "Deutsch Spuds" and made them into pancakes; they used them in 'soup; they grated them again in Potato Custard; they fried them, baked them, and put them in stews, And their descendants, equally as versatile in the kitchen, found that potatoes help to make a never -fail fudge that is famous. Their recipes are exact and contain many helpful hints — just what you might perhaps , expect in the way of thorotigh- ness and caution, when you re- call their German background. * * * Potato Pancakes To make Potato Pancakes, they advise: "Pare 6 to 8 me- dium -large potatoes (prefer- ably old ones); peel 1 large onion. Grate potatoes and onion into large bowl, Salt to taste (Lfi teaspoon or more). Add 1 egg or 2 eggs, depending upon size (use 2 if you are preparing 8 potatoes) and 2 rounded table- spoons of flour. Blend thorough- ly and drop by tablespoons onto a hot skillet that has been greased with bacon drippings. (These pancakes need enough grease to keep them from stick- ing.) Fry until they are crispy golden -brown on both sides. Serve as quickly as possible." * * Potato Soup One large, or two medium- sized potatoes for each serving of soup, One medium-sized onion for each three servings of soup, Water to barely covet. the peeled and thinly sliced potatoes and onions, L.teaspoon salt for each serving. Cook until the po- tatoes are very well done, and the liquid is reduced to the point where the consistency of the potatoes and onions resem- bles moist mashed potatoes. Then add a small lump of but- ter. Add 1 cup of milk for each serving, and heat to the boiling point, but do not boil, Add pep- per to taste and serve, $ $ Potato Fudge Boil 3 cups of white sugar, 1 cup of brown sugar, 1 cup evap- orated milk, 1/1 cup corn syrup, and four squares of chocolate together until a. medium -soft ball can be formed. Add .1 tablespoon of butter or margar- ine. Let cool, then beat until half done. Add two cups . of hot potatoes that have been baked and forced through a fine sieve; then continue beating until creamy. If desired, add 2 cups of nuts and 1 teaspoon of va- nilla just before pouring. Pour into lightly buttered pan and mark into squares, * * , * Bachelor's Pie If a housewife has to be away over the meal hours, she usually leaves what is known as a "Bachelor's Pie" in the oven for her husband and sons. To make this, she lightly butters an extra -large pie plate, then thin- ly slices raw potatoes into the pan to make a layer about an inch deep. She tops this with a layer of thinly sliced onions, and adds salt and pepper. Over this she arranges inch -wide strips of round steak, then dots the whole with small pieces of suet, and salts and peppers again. She covers the plate with pie - crust, slashed to permit steam to escape, and leaves the pie in a medium -hot oven to bake un- til done. Her, stove Is wood - fired, and she can gauge her heat and length of baking to a nicety through long experience. In a gas or electric•oven, 1 hour at 375° is right for this meal -In- a -dish. TOO MUCH SAVING A salesman, trying to sell a housewife a home freezer, point- ed. out, "You can save enough on your food bilis to pay for it." "That's fine," answered the womatf, "bt you see we're pay- ing for our car on the carfare we save. Then, we're paying for our washing machine on the laundry bills we save, and we are paying for the house on the rent we are saving, It looks to me like we just can't afford to save any more at the present time," • Cooking' Tips For Small Families Senior homemakers who enjoy cooking •for one or two are in clover these days, for with all the canned, packaged, and frozen foods on the market, even short- cut meals can be nourishing, ap- petizing, and varied. The secret of variety, says a home economist with the U.S, Department of Agriculture, is in using the popular "convenience" foods along with others in dif- ferent combination, Canned corned beef, for example, may be formed into small cakes and grilled with a slice of pineapple on top, Canned tomato soup, un- diluted, makes a piquant sauce for meat balls, or it may be com- bined with quick -cooking rice for a savory "Spanish Rice," Canned macaroni or spaghetti in cheese sauce go well with ground meat, tuna fish, cut-up cooked chicken or ham, dried beef, or frankfurters, baked to blend the flavors, Canned tuna fish or chicken, with chopped onion and green pepper for extra flavor and color, are de- licious when combined with con- densed chicken soup, If baked, top with baking powder biscuit, or with bread crumbs, crushed crackers, or crumbled corn flakes. ' Many a cook whose stove is a single gas or electric burner specializes in ,one -dish meals. Not skimpy, stand -up -at -a - counter -and -eat a f f airs,, but meals featuring such old-time favorites- as braised liver or pot roast with vegetables, fish chow- der, Irish stew, or New England boiled dinner, To complete the menu, a crisp salad, bread, and perhaps a simple dessert of fruit, fruit pudding, ice cream or sherbet, ' A skillet of cast iron or cast aluminum with a tight -fitting lid makes it possible to prepare one -burner meals in series, First, plan a dessert which can be served cold; say fruit, fruit gela- tin, or tapioca pudding, Then, for example, combine ' ground meat with cooked spaghetti and tomato sauce and cook it in the skillet. When this is. done set it aside - it will keep hot In the • skillet — while you cook broc- coli or some other green veg- etable, A double boiler is another handy utensil in the one -burner kitchen,, For "double decker" cooking, boil . potatoes, corn on the cob, or some other vegetable in the lower part of the boiler while rolls are heating in the upper part. And of course there's nothing more useful than a double boiler for reheating such foods as cooked meat and gravy, and other leftovers. s experienced homemakers know, leftovers can save both time'and money,•, "Just be sure," cautions. my ' home economist friend, "that they are planned leftovers. Add just enough new .food so that you won't find your- self eating leftover leftovers," Among hbr suggestions for planned leftovers are these: Use leftover bread in cheese fondue, scalloped dishes, bread pudding. Or toast the bread, top with a sliced frankfurter and a thin slice .of Cheddar cheese, and broil till the cheese melts. Omelets and scrambled eggs •can be enhanced with small bits of cheese or to- mato, green onion, peas, or ham, chicken, or bacon. Salads are a "natural" for leftovers. To a tossed green salad add cut strips of ham, chicken, pork, or veal. Mix leftover cook- ed vegetables -- chopped celery, cucumber slices, tomatoes, green pepper, shredded cabbage. Com- bine leftoverfruits with small cream cheese balls, or grated cheese, or serve with cottage cheese, Or- for dessert, combine the fruits with sliced bananas, and sprinkle plain or toasted coconut over the top. EXAMPLE FOR CANADA Over 40 million acres of pri- vately owned forest lands are enrolled in the Tree Farm Pro- gram sponsored by` American .Forest Industries, and the total is being extended rapidly throughout the country. This land is owned. by over 10,000 In- dividuals and wood -consuming companies. Plots range front three aores in the case of some backyard foresters, to 200,000 for the larger timber and pulp corporations. These tree farms are not just ordinary bush land but, as the name implies, are places where commercial trees are grown, protected and handled as a crop, just like wheat, or apples or potatoes, Unlike some of those others mentioned, however, there are no market worries about tree farm crops. This busines4 is something we could push very much to the general advantage in Canada. True there has been some pro- gress already both by compa- nies and individuals. But com- pared to the scope of the U.S. plan we- have hardly started. Few if any countries have the immense area of potential forest land which lies along the fringes of agriculture settlement that we have in Canada. With a little care chiefly in new planting and protection this could be turned into a huge, new and -continuous supply of timber and .pulp wood.

Now, familiar with the noisy jazz and jive music, the chick- ens are not upset by other sounds, The domestic hen is one of the most 'remarkable food pro- ducers in the world. In a single year a hen weighing three to four ponds will produce many times her own weight in eggs. An average hen laying 150 eggs a year will produce 18 to 19 lbs. of eggs. Exceptionally good birds have approached the ideal of an egg a day. The present record of 361 eggs in a year is held by an Australian bird. No wild bird remotely ap- proaches the domestic hen in egg -laying ability. Mallard ducks, for example, lay about 146 a year, quails 128, pheas- ants 104, ostrich 100, canaries 60, pigeons 60, and house spar- rows 51. The domestic fowl's suprem- acy is not surprising. She is the product of 3,000 years of man - directed breeding. The ancest- ral jungle fowl of Asia lays from 30 to 40 eggs a year only. Moreover, these eggs are half the size of the barnyard fowl's. The average hen's egg weighs about two ounces but occasion- ally freaks are produced by ne- terprising hens. What is prob- ably the largest ever fowl's egg is fittingly displayed in the Mu- seum of Curiosities of the Pas- teur Institute in Paris. It is about five and a half times the size of the average egg and weighs over 11 ozs. ' The hen which triumphantly laid this giant was a White Leg= horn. The smallest hen's egg on record weighs only a fraction more than a twenty-fifth of an ounce. It would take about fifty eggs of this size to balance the scales with a normal two -ounce egg. Hen's eggs shaped like cu- cumbers and sausages have been recorded. Double eggs with linked shells occurs less fre- quently. Much more familiar are double -yolk eggs. A record double-yoker weighed just half a . pound. Investigating this phenomenon which occurs chiefly among young pullets, a scientist computed that a double -yolk egg appears once in about 530 eggs. The odds against triple-yokers are very much greater - one egg only in every five thousand. Compared with the hen's egg no other single food of animal origin is eaten by so many people; none is served in so many ways. Some- thing like 200,000,000,000 eggs are eaten every year through- out the world. The egg's great popularity is due to its tastinessand its wide range of use. It also happens to be a near -perfect food. It is • MERRY MENAGERIE ceN. -+ Vit!✓-*�"� ::�:.»r. :nIn(1.1 b�fl'ly' I\ M.•11... Orr "A burro?

The decision that Royal Navy personnel should wear "civies" while engaged in Suez salvage operations'was a startling break with tradition. Yet British sailors have not always worn an official uniform, In the eighteenth century, sub- ject to the individual whim of them captains, sailors wore what they pleased, For instance, the captain of H.M.S. Tulip decreed green jackets and a flower in the hat as the appropriate rig for his men. The captain of H.M.S. Blazer also had definite ideas on dress. His boats' crews had to wear blue and white -striped jackets, which incidentally, became the forerunner of the modern "bla- zer." The men of H.M.S. Cale- donia could easily be picked out in a crowd, for they wore Scots bonnets with tartan ribbons. But the naval officer with the most eccentric notions on dress and appearance' was Captain "Nobby" Ewart, An enthuslast for spit and polish, Nobby once demanded that his private stock of poultry should be fallen in at Divisions on Sundays so that they could be inspected along with the ship's company. How to line up a platoon of • lively fowls and keep them pro- perly dressed by the right might have floored a lesser man than Captain .Ewart's coxswain. But he groomed the birds and kept them in place on deck by means of a staple over the toes of the chickens and a tack through the webs of the ducks. One morning the coxswain turned up for duty in the cap- tain's boa` sporting a ripe black eye gained as the result of a lost argument. Nobby took one look at the brawny seaman, then this stickler .for uniformity promptly ordered the , rest of the boat's crew to black one eye with burnt cork) It was not until a century ago that the Admiralty introduced the first regulation uniform for the men of the lower deck. Ex- cept that it is more smartly cut and better fitting, the blue- jacket's uniform today differs little in essentials from that established so long ago 'as Janu- ary 1857. An additional garment was a blue cloth jacket, abolished in 1891. It was from wearing this that the term "bluejacket" ori- ginated, The original Uniform Regula- tions also introduced a sennit hat for sailors to wear in tropical climates. Similar to the wide- ' brimmed straw hat worn at one time by .children on holiday at the' seaside, this article of kit •became very unpopular, and was abolished, , Naval officers' uniform was in- troduced in 1748 after theyhad sent a petition to the Admiralty, A. group of officers persuaded the beautiful Duchess of Bedford, wife of the then First Lord of the Admiralty, to wear a riding habit they had designed. George tI, how had an eye for a pretty woman, saw her riding in the park asthey had hoped, and so admired the habit that he ap- proved of the same colours of blue and white being used for their uniforms, CROSSWORD PUZZLE ACItnrs 1.

TIIHMM I'RONT The farmer's spray shed or the gardener's garage is beginning to look like a pharmacy with all the varieties of agricultural chemicals now available to fight plant diseases, Without these chemicals, it is conceivable that we might succumb to the rots, the rusts and the blights. Today, research on fungicides has reached a high state of per- fection. liut not too many years ago our ,logdr supply was at the mercy of many -plant diseases. The potato, for example, had to fight a serious battle against early and late blight which threatened its complete destruc- tion. * * * In the early 17th century, Sir Walter Raleigh, on a voyage to Virginia, discovered the Indians cultivating a plant the name of which he translated as potato. He took it to Europe where it remained a botanical curiosity for years. The peasant farmer at last discovered its food value and soon the potato replaced cereals which had been the staple diet of the white man since the dawn of history. * * * Then a new disease appeared in Central Europe. It made the leaves of the potato plant turn water -soaked, slimy, rotten and black. The tubers decayed and the crops, were ruined. The disease, which we now know as late blight, spread with lightning rapidity over Europe and appeared in Ireland in 1844. That densely populated island had accepted the potato as a god- send and had almost ceased to grow cereal of any kind, The entire potato crop was wiped out and 250,000 people actually 'starved to death while 1,500,000' emigrated, many to Canada, * * * In Canada late blight is today a serious problem for potato growers. The federal agricul- tural department undertook ex- periments in 1934 to breed new blight -resistant varieties. After testing more than 124,000 seed- lings, two varieties which were immune to the disease were in- troduced. Unfortunately their immunity did not last. The ex- periments are continuing but the prospects :of obtaining a blight - resistant variety of potato re- main in the future. ✓ b.* * Although it is at present im- possible to eliminate the disease, its harmful effects can be con- trolled by fungicidal sprays or dusts. From experiments in Prince dward Island' growers have dis- covered that a `Certain fungicide gives excellent control of early and late blight as'well as other diseases of - potatoes, At the same time this fungicide stimu- lates growth and protects the quality of the potato right through the . growing season. * * * • For blight control, application should begin as soon as plants are two to six inches high and :continue at five to 10 -day in- tervals as long as blight threat- ens. The lungicido is easy on foliage and Sermers have found that it does not burn, stunt or yellow the plants, * * * If chemistry had been unable to find an answer to potato blight, one of our most nutritious and low-cost foods would have disappeared from Canadian tables. Potatoes contain plenti- ful supplies of important min- erals: iron, calcium and phos- phorus and are a good source of Vitamin C. They also contain substantial amounts of Vitamins A and B, riboflavin and a high- quality protein. One medium- sized potato supplies about 100 calories - penny for penny, more energy than most other vegetables:. * * * When primitive man first brought sheep down from the hills to his campfire on the plains, he brought their internal parasites with them, Man has been cultivating these parasites ever since. The usual indications of worms in sheep and goats are unthrifti- ness, loss of weight, scours, pot- belly and paleness of the skin and mucous membrane of the eyes and mouth, In some cases infested animals appear gaunt and depressed, show signs of ab- dominal pain and refuse to eat. Lambs become stunted, appear unthrifty and their wool may become rough, * * * Of the internal parasites af- fecting sheep and goats, round- worms are the most serious. They have been found wherever sheep and goats are kept but are the most numerous where the same pastures have been used for long periods. There are eight different species of rondworms - the twisted stomach worm, medium stomach worm, small hair worm, hookworm, whip- worm, nodular worm, large - mouthed bowel worm, and thread -necked strongyles. * * * Disease caused by worms is considerably different from dis- ease caused by bacteria, When bacteria invade the body of an animal they - multiply and dis- ease develops as a result of this multiplication. On ' the other hand, roundworms do not mul- tiply inside the sheep, Each baby worm which enters the animal's body develops into an adult, but does little damage by itself. It sucks blood, produces a toxin, or opens a minute hole for second- ary bacteria in the lining of the digestive tract. * * * Although a few worms can do little damage inside an animal, they do lay the groundwork for serious infestation of the rest df the flock, Each female lays 60,- 000 fertile eggs. These are dis- charged into the food mass in the digestive tract of the host to be passed out onto the pasture in the droppings. The eggs hatch into baby worms which are picked up by other sheep as they graze,Entering a sheep in large quantities they do serious dam- age. The only way to keep pas- tures free of infection is to de- stroy the parasites before they can lay their eggs, * * * In recent years sheepmen have been turning to phenothiazine, a drug developed in 1938 by the United States agriculture de- partment to help .cut down their losses from internal parasites. Phenothiazine may be given in sufficient doses to expel the worms outright, or in smaller doses to arrest the development of the eggs al worms that sur- vive. The recommended dose to re- move worms from an adult sheep or goat is about one ounce. For lambs under 60 pounds, a dose of slightly over half an ounce is adequate. Somewhat larger amounts of the drug will not harm either sheep or goats bt accuracy in measuring the dose; avoids waste. WE'RE DIFFERENT A n Ameriacn advertising magazine has discovereid that the buying habits of Canadians are different in many respects from those of Americans. "Because we talk ap- proximately the same language andshare the same continent and standards of living, comments The Financial Post, many Americans seem to assume that "Canadians" are simply a stray- ed tribe of Americans -just the same people, only living a little farther north. Actually there are a lot of differences between us in soap buying habits and other things. That is to be expected in a country that is completely inde- pendent and intends to stay that way.

R. Barclay Warren B.A., B.D. Are We Hypocrites? Matthew 23: 13-15, 23-28, 37-31. Memory, Selection: Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: other- wise ye have no reward of your Father which is in Heaven. Matthew 6:L A lady wrote to a minister say- ing that she would like ,to attend his church only that there were so many hypocrites there, "Oh," he replied, "Come along and join • the others." Of course there are hypocrites in the church but that person is small who tries to hide behind one. God judges people for what they are and not for what they pretend to be. We may fool people but we can't fool God. Nowhere in the Bible is there such a scathing denunciation as that in our lesson given by Jesus to the Scribes and Pharisees, hy- pocrites. "All their works they do for to be seen of men." They want to be seen and honoured. They make long prayers as a pretense but devour widow's houses. They are strict tithers but short on mercy and faith. Jesus pronounced judgment on them in no uncertain terms, We are amused when children play at pretending. But when adults work at it seriously in the name of religion it isn't funny. Some will act quite religious on Sunday but put over a sharp deal on Monday. For some the amount of a gift to a church or charity is directly proportional to the amount of publicity it will receive. Some people use reli- gion for their own ends. All this and much more is hypocrisy. Immediately following this de- nunciation comes one of the ten- derest and most solicitious state- ments of Jesus. "0 Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy chil- dren together, even as a hen gathered her chickens under her wings, and ye would notl Be- hold, your house is left unto you desolate." Jesus had love even for the hypocrites and sought to save them. It is easy to be a hypocrite. Ultimately it brings desolation of spirit. STOOL PIGEON One often hears the phrase "stool pigeon", what it really meant at one time. In ancient days the stool pigeon was a bird whose eyelids had been sewn to- gether so that it would con- tinually cry out and flap its wings, Its cries attracted other pigeons, who were captured and killed.

Last week we met accidentally and stopped for tea. It was then he told me he had loved me since we met — and Anne Hirst, I could not help res- l..,nding. "He will do anything I say, and leaves the decisions to me. Whatever shal I do? I feel ter- ribly sorry for my husband, but after all, it is his own fault. MARGARET." BE IIONEST • To break up a home is a • solemn undertaking, It might • prove disastrous for yot.: chil- • dren, and that would destroy • any happiness you hope for. • You would be more distraught • and alone than you ever have • been, • I think you owe your hus- • band the truth about why you • think of leaving. Once he real- * izes thaat his years of con- * tinuous suspicions have driven • you from him, he may be • shocked into a fighting effort • to overcome this jealousy — • and he might win. Discovering • that you think of leaving, he • may beg for another chance; • if he succeeds in driving away • his jealousy instead of you, • you will be happier at home • with him, keeping your fam- ily together. He has not been • contented, either, you.,know; • a man torn by jealousy is a • pitable object and suffers more • than anyone else can imagine. • The other man will respect • your decision, seeing Its just- • ice, and you will have the con- * solation of giving your bus- * band the chance to win you • all over again. I urge you to • think this over before you • dash into court with the in- • tent to join your life with that • of a man you hardly know, M * t "DOES IHE LOVE?" "Dear Anne Hirst: I am 18 and in love with a soldier a year older. He wants me to marry him in April, when he comes home for three months. But he has never told me that he loves me, though he has told his friends,' Also, he's always talk- ing about other girls! "What do you advise me ti do? V.A.W." " I advise you to wait for a • year or two before you con- sent to marry anybody. • A boy of 17 is not mature • enough to get married, and • this lad is especially adoles- • cent when he has the poor • taste to mention other girls • to the one he has asked to be • his wife. He is showing off, • of course, but that does not • excuse him. As he is today, I ' doubt whether you could stay • married to him for a single • year. • Don't censure him, though, he has not said in so many • words, "I love you." A pro- * posal assumes that he is in • love; of course, you miss hear- * ing him say so, but don't mis- * judge him for his thoughtless- * ness. It is just that he doesn't • understand girls; he is think- * ing far more of his own emo- • tions than of yours. • What does your family say? • You should discuss the situa- * tion with your parents, who • know the lad and can advise • you better than anyone else. • • II Whatever your problem, writ- ing Anne Hirst about it will clear it in your mind and bring her comforting sympathy and kind counsel.

DOGHOUSE DE LUXE — "Mitzle"; the spaniel makes you think of the old lady who lived in a shoe as she contemplates her "doghouse" of open -toed design, with insulated walls and an attached welcome mat, Actually, Mitzie's modernistic abode is an insulating blanket, made at General Electric's plant, for an Air Force instrument used in tracking gunnery targets. )7;- ' I HRONICLES 1NGERVARM C etdolir.e P. Ct&i,ike For a few days last week the air had a really springish feel- ing. The birds thought so too, Bluejays Left the shelter of the woods and took to the highways. What they hoped to find on the roads I don't know but they were certainly exploring. Spar- rows swarmed around the bush- es, happily chirping in bird language, defying the juncos and chickadees. Squirrels were in a playful mood; cottontails out looking for food. This morning Rusty was terribly noisy. I said to Partner, "What in the world is Rusty barking at?" Partner laughed — "Probably a rabbit. He saw one yesterday and didn't know what to make of it. Fin- ally took after it but kept his distance in case the rabbit might bite!" Yes, that's our Rusty — the best watch -dog, and the hest dog with children we have ever had, but hasn't the slightest idea about hunting. Mitchie-White has forgotten the art too, probably too well fed to bother, He watched a mouse run across the kitchen floor today and wasn't even interested. The other day when a little mouse practically crossed his path he did manage to catch it. Then he let it go again and looked surprised when the mouse disappeared down a hole. And yet when I catch a mouse in a trap he is quite ready to eat it. Would anyone like a good mouser? Maybe our Mitchle gets as confused over mice as we do over weather forecasts. A monthly farm magazine came out with a long-range weather forecast which said "below nor- mal temperatures are expected for all Ontario." A few days later a thirty -day forecast ap- peared in the daily press which said "average to above normal temperatures may be expected." But the road reports are what gets me down. "All highways bare and driving conditions good," So what happens? You start out on a good highway en route to visit a friend in a near- by city. Except for places where melting snowbanks make the road slushy you get along fine. You forget your friend lives in a sub -division on a gravelled road. But you are not likely to forget after you've been there! The clean car you started out with is covered in slush. Gravelly deposits hit your mudguards and under -car- riage. Salt riddles 'a hole in your muffler. And then after you reach home, miraculously safe and sound, you hear again that repetitious road report -- "highways. bare, driving condi- Bons good — at least on roads you are likely to travel," ndds the news reporter, Now I ask you, how does any reporter know what roads you are likely to travel? What of the thou- sands of commuters in and out of surburban districts?,What of the friends who set ot to visit them? What of the farm lanes before you hit the highway? What of the county and town- ship roads? So, don't be misled by radio road reports. All roads are not highways, Better be smart and stay home 11 you can until gravel roads have had a chance to improve. After all the Frost government has given us every encouragement to 'give the car a rest by boosting gas- oline two cents a gallon. The trouble is what we would like to do isn't -always possible. You may cut out pleasure jaunts but you can't cut out business trips. Anyway, this is the beginning of March so we can expect un- pleasant weather. But while it is admittedly bad underfoot, that springish feeling in the air should be encouraging. And the days are petting longer — that always helps. Farmers have more daylight to get extra jobs done and the women -folk turn their thoughts to housecleaning, You can't resist the urge no matter how hard you try. It could be you don't accomplish too much by starting early and you may be glad to settle down to knitting again. Speaking of knitting ... there was a little item in a newspaper last week that intrigued me. A minister in a church in England is encouraging women to bring their knitting! He says it helps them to concentrate, Well now, isn't that something? Maybe the cleric preaches extra long ser- mons, Even so .. I was interested because I like to knit at meetings — but I have never tried taking it to church, The question arises — is it or is it not bad manners to knit while listening to a speaker? I would say it depends on the knitter, The • English cleric claims it helps concentration. That again depends on the knitting and the knitter. A fancy pattern calls for practically undivided atten- tion. And you can't concentrate on both the knitting and what the speaker is saying. On the other hand easy knitting really helps. If the speaker is good you probably forget to knit anyway. If the speaker is boring having something to do with your hands keeps you from getting fidptty and noticing how hard the seats are, So whether you can listen and knit is quite a questin, Some can, some can't. Personally I am happier In my mind if my hands are occupied. But at one convention I received quite a jolt when a W.I. execu- tive said "it was an affront to a speaker for women to knit during an address", And there was I caught in the act! But with no intention of being dis- courteous, It might be a good debate for your local W.I. Modern Etiquette... By Anne Ashley Q. When an invitation writ- ten on an informal card is re- ceived, and a reply•is requested, is it all right to make this re- ply over the telephone? A. It is quite all right to reply to an informal invitation by phone, Q. If a man Is accompanying a girl who is driving her own car, should he make an offer to do the driving? A. It would be better not, Some women are sensitive about their driving dnd might think such an offer reflects on their ability at the wheel. Of course, if the woman suggests that he drive, then it is all. right. Q. Should' asparagus be eaten with the fingers? A. No.. It is ill-bred to take up this dripping vegetable with the fingers. It is properly eaten with the fork. Q. Should Bridge prizes be wrapped or left open? A. It is much better to wrap them attractively. Q. If someone tells a joke that you 'have already heard, should you stop him? A. Only if you are his sole listener, Q. At a party recently, some of the guests brought presents. Wasn't it polite to put these gifts aside and open them later, rather than to open them and embarrass those who brought none? A. This . would show a com- plete lack of appreciation of the thoughtfulness of the given, just to coddle the chagrin of the empty-handed. Always open any gifts you receive imme- diately, Q. If lettuce, parsley or water- cress is placed around an Item of food to garnish It, may thl properly be eaten? A. Yes, if you wish to eat it and it ih a part of your individ- ual serving, But you should not mar the appearance of a serv- ing dish by plucking out some of its garnish, Q. Does a woman introduce her husband to another woman as "Mr, Robinson"? A. No. The proper form would be: 'Mrs, Tanner, may I intro- duce my husband?" A woman does not use "Mr." when refer- ring to or introducing her hus- band. Q. Is one obligated to send a wedding gift to a friend who is marrying for the second time, If one sent gift for the first'mar- riage? A. If the friend is a widow who is marrying again, I think it would be nice to send her an- other gift. If, however, she is a divorcee, it's up to you. There is no obligation, Q. Should the first page of a social letter be numbered? A, No; this is neither neces- sary nor proper. You may num- ber the succeeding pages, if you wish.

Ship's Ammunition Just Plain Hootch Harold Waters served ' for twenty years in the U,S, Coast Guard, and one experience he'll sever forget was when his patrol ship Tucker chased and captured the whisky runner Conch Bello off the east coast of America. The smuggler's hull was so riddled with bullet -holes during the engagement that she couldn't be towed into port, So the Tucker's skipper decided to haul her alongside and tranship the whisky cargo as evidence, stow- ing it in the machine shop amid- ships. The call for all hands to form a human chain to handle the sacks full of • bottles, was hailed with enthusiasm. On the share - and -share -alike basis of "one for. the government, and one for me" only half the 200 sacks of spirit reached the machine shop. The other half vanished behind ven- Blators, stacks, vegetable lockers and any other hideouts that the Tucker's officers couldn't see. When told of the large num- ber of missing bottles, the skip- per gave the officers a severe dressing-down for their lack of vigilance and ordered an imme- diate search, But up to midnight they had found only two sacks which someone had thrown into a small dinghy and forgotten to remove to a better hideout, "That's not a drop in the bucket compared with what's still loose in this ship!" roared the. skipper, -"You'd better get busy lust thing in the morning and find them, if you don't turn up that missing stuff by to -morrow night, I'll give you a taste of hack!" Hack was room -confine- ment, a drastic punishment car- rying a feeling of moral stigma' for coast guard officers, Waters records in a cheerfully Bea -breezy account of his twenty years with the U.S. Coast Guard in "Adventure Unlimited" that the temporary halt in the search was a signal for celebration. Backs and • bottles were taken from their hiding places and all hands not on watch got glorious- ly ti g h t, drinking furiously against the clock. It was a night of revelry and high carnival, The ship's gunnery depart- ment — four gunners' mates and a chief — had ten sacks (360 bottles) hidden in the magazine. It was a lot of liquor to hide in a compartment already filled with powder, projectiles TNT and small arms ammunition, so the chief ordered them to dump the ammunition. Into emptied powder tanks and boxes marked "High Explosives — handle with great care!" went quart after quart of whisky which was promptly drawn upon for their own private party. Waters doesn't remember pass- ing out, but when he awoke the nun was shining brightly, and sprawled about him, empty bot- tles still clutched in their hands, and their snores clashing like buzz -saws, were,' the prostrate bodies of his' shipmates. 'And they were not the only ones with, aching heads and tortured stomachs. Twenty men in other departments hadn't been able to stand their early morning four - lo -eight watch; the two cooks of the galley watch were too drunk 10 prepare breakfast. It was drunken chaos. • At 8 a,m, the hands were or- dered to muster before the com- manding officer. Out from their lairs They crawled and staggered, glome still drunk, others with shocking hangovers. "We were a sorry -looking bunch as we form- ed in lurching, weaving ranks to face a Wrathful captain," Waters says. The captain loosed a broad- side on their "disgraceful con- duct," threatening . a general court-martial to any man found with liquor in his possession or in any compartment to which he had the keys. Turning abruptly, he slammed into the yeoman deputized to write up charges. On the impact a bottle of whisky slipped from the yeoman's waist, down his pant leg, and crashed on the steel deck, splashing the skip- per's shoes:"While you're writ- ing up charges," 'he snapped, "put yourself down for a general court-martial!" "Aye, aye, sir," said the luckless yeoman. While they stood in ranks in a broiling sun w i t 11 parched tongues, splitting heads, and sick stomachs, the officers combed the ship, finding loot everywhere, under pillows, mattresses, in hammocks, lockers. Despite the thorough search, however, the total yield was dis- appointing. "I know well," bark- ed the skipper, "there's a lot more liquor yet to'be found You may expect surprise searches from now on, plenty of them! At any hour of the day or night!" While the deck force was given intensive gun drill the skipper glowered down from the bridge, Demonstrating safety precautions to a gun crew, the Chief walked to the breech end saying: "Having made sure that the muzzle end of the gun is clear, we now swing open the breech block and—" As he bent tow to look inside, out shot the first of threewhis- ky bottles from the powder chamber. One hit him in the forehead; stunning him; the other two crashed on the deck, "Very interesting, C h I e f!" thundered the Old Man. "You had a foul bore all right, fouled with three bottles of whisky!" The Chief hotly protested that someone -must have dumped the bottles there the previous night and forgotten to remove them. "After all, Captain," he added boldly, "if we were the kind of rascals you think us to be, you should credit us with more intelli- gence than trying to hide liquor in a gun that• is right under your nose." "And where else would you put your stolen liquor, if you're the kind of rogues I have some season to suspect you of being?" "Down in the magazine, Cap- tain" -- with a casualness that almost took the crew's breath away, "That's where I would hide the stuff. That 'is, if I had stolen any of it, , Why don't you look down'there?" To the others' relief, the skipper just laughed. Actually, the magazine had been searched by' the gunnery officer and no liquor found, thanks to the ChIef's forethought in throw- ing overboard enough explosives to provide stowage for it! When the Tucker hove -to off Fort Lauderdale; the Coast Guard base, Waters' anchoring station was up on .the fo'c'sle. At the command, "Let go the anchor," down it plunged, up from the chain locker came the cable, whipping through the hawse -pipe, then came the sound of grinding glass from below, and into the sea splashed broken whisky bottles as thecable un- coiled. Whisky fumes wreathed up. The fo'c'sle began to smell like a distlllery.. 179 YiARS BETWEEN THEM —William Jerry Smith, 104, and his ion Fred, 75, strike a father -an -son pose as Fred sits of his Poppy's lap at their home. GOOD HEAD — Three young- sters put their heads together with a giant papier-mache fun- ny man in Viareggio, Italy. The huge head was used in the town's pre -Lenten carnival. He's One Feller They' Won't Forget Back in the spring of 1937 in an exhibition game between the Cleveland Indians and the New York GIants a group of sports- writers recoiled through . sheer reflex action every time a rookie Cleveland pitcher unwound him- self and"flung the ballplateward, Ther were two reasons. - One was because the press box at the VIcksburg, Miss., ball park, where the game was being played, was set level with the field and only a scant 10 yards behind the catcher, The second was because the pitcher was Bob Feller, who was throwing with all the celerity of a machine gun. That night the wires out of Vicksburg hummed with stories about the Van Meter, Iowa, farm boy who was as fast as Walter Johnson. One look had been enough to let the boys in press row know they were seeing something extra special. Feller, who recently announced his re- tirement after 20 years in the big leagues, Ieft a legacy of pitching records to back them up. Back in those early days Bob was raw, unskilled, and untu- tored. He walked like a boy who had been brought up following a plow and when he raised his left leg, preparatory to pitching, his foot pointed in the direction of third base. But he could throw a baseball as hard as anybody you• ever saw, including Dazzy Vance, or Lefty Grove, or Wal- ter Johnson, writes Phil Elderkin In The Christian Science Moni- tor. The boy himself was as raw as his delivery —and as basically sound. Feller was still a coun- try boy, so much so that he even' had his school books with him so that he might return later for a diploma. He was polite, cour- teous, and ill at ease. Ten years later he was as polished as a diplomat and a consistent 20-%. game winner. It is quite possible that Feller has taken more money out of baseball, and its various side- lines, than any other athlete since Babe Ruth, , Bob hadn't been around too long before he be- came RQ -Fel, Inc. baseball's first incorporated ballplayer. When he signed his 1947 base- ball contract with Cleveland, former prsident Bill Veeck called a special press conference. With one arm around Feller and flash- ing that little grin of his, Veeck pointed in the direction of Mu- nicipal Stadium and said: "Bob now owns everything to the left of first base." Bill was joking, but not very much. That year Cleveland sup- posedly paid Feller a tidy $80,- 000, with a bonus clause attached, based on attendance, which may have added another $10,000 to his salary. Bob probably picked up an- other $25,000 In endorsements, He lends his name to such pro- ducts as ice cream, sports wear, peanut butter, shaving cream, and breakfast food, However, he was always extremely careful never to allow his name to be used for cigarette or liquor ad- vertising, or anything which he felt would not be of benefit to young people, many of whom had formed fan clubs in his hon- or. As a pitcher, Feller probably was the best of his tone, He was a 20 -game winner as recently as 1951 and his victory total for 21 years is an eye-popping 266, In- cluded in that number are three no hitters and 12 one hitters. In fact, if he hadn't spent three of his most productive years in the service, he might have been baseball's first 300 -game winner since Bob Grove. This may seem relatively small ID some old-timers who recall Cy Young's 500 -plus wins, but q*, GREEN r/ THUMB cif; , • ; ; Gordon Bisalt vn' There Have Been. Changes Ever since Adam in the Gar- den of Eden man and garden- ing have been closely associated But there have been a lot of changes and every decade sees more.,A great many of the flowerand vegetables that our ,grandparents planted would be as much out of place in the mod- ern garden as the 'old wood stoves in our up-to-date kitchen, or the' model T on •our super- highways. We use many of the same names. There is till bantam corn, petunias, asters and 'phlox. The lilac remains one of our most popular and beautiful shrubs But there is little simi- larity except in name with those plants in our 'garden today. There has been a vast improve- ment in quality, in productive- ness, in colours and in resistance to disease. Not so many years ago garden corn, for instance, was a luxury in many parts of Canada, It took too long to mature, It was not hardy enough except for the warmer section of the coun- try. And when we did succeed in growing a few cobs, the sea- son lasted only a few days. In flowers and shrubs, too, we were, limited to a few standard col- ours, not very bright and all gone In a matter of days. - Now, with vast Improvements, in hardiness, colouring and quality, we' can have gardens almost anywhere ' in Canada, right up into the Yukon and around Great Slave lake if necessary, And we can have fresh vegetables and bright bloom from early In the Spring until even after the first frosts in the Fall. Spread It Out It is foolish to plant all the garden on a single afternoon just as soon as the first warm weather comes. A late frost may ruin all tender growth and if it does escape frost, all the flowers will come out early or • all the vegetables will be ready at 'the sarne time, With the vegetables especially, it is advisable to spread sowings, so that the harvest may be spread out also. Experienced gardeners make a regular prac- tice of planting such things as carrots, beets, lettuce, beans, spinach, radish, etc., at least three times, about two or three weeks apart. To further spread. the harvest, they will also use early, medium and late varieties, There is no good reason why the vegetable garden should not yield continually from early summer until late fall, And the same goes for most annual flowers, too. Centrepiece Virtually every 'garden, for- mal or informal is built around a lawn. The latter is the real centrepiece and the smoother and greener it is the better it shows off theiflowers, shrubbery and home. There are a lot of Poor lawns in Canada but 'there shouldn't be, because preparing and maintaining 'a respectable one is not difficult. A few basic points should be kept in mind. First, we must remember that grass is a plant like a flower or a vegetable and if we want fine luxuriant deep green growth we should feed it once in a while just like we feed our flowers and vegetables. And another even more basic point it to make sure that we start with good seed, and suitable seed. If these two points are. kept in mind the rest is simple because healthy grass from healthy seed will pretty well take care of its own problems. remember Young was pitching in the era of the so-called dead ball, when four or five home runs was enough to lead the majors. Today even the smallest players hit them out of the park. The lone blot on Feller's rec- ord, If you can call It that, was that he never won a World Series game. Johnny Sain and the Bos- ton Braves beat him, 2-1, in the opening game of the 1948 fall classic, and although Bob came back again later in the series it just wasn't his afternoon. The Indians have retired his Uniform (No. 19) and already there is talk of Bob moving into Baseball's Hall of Fame.
