Prayer And The
U.S. President
Slipping unannounced into the
President's office one morning
in 1955, Secretary of the Interior
Fred A. Seaton found the Chief
Executive on his knee:; in prayer.
Seaton apologized profusely, but
Ike quietly waved his apology
aside. He was, he explained,
making a crucial decision that
could mean war or peace in the
Far East. IIe was praying for
guidance in choosing the right
course,
This story never would have
been divulged had •not a news-
paperman one day questioned
the President's religious sinceri-
ty, irking Seaton. To the Presi-
dent's intimates, there never is
any question about his sincere
belief in prayer. Ike himself, Jt
course, seldom mentions his per-
sonal prayer, any more than he
talks publicly about his religious
beliefs.
Yet he prays as naturally as
he eats breakfast, according to
his brother Milton, president �f
Johns Hopkins University. Ile's
done it from boyhood, when
family prayers were said morn-
ing and evening. He opens Cab-
inet meetings with prayer; he
often has exhorted people to
pray and to practice their reli-
gion.
Ike's belief in prayer is deep-
ly rooted in years of experience.
A number of times, he genuine-
ly feels, his own prayers have
been answered.
When he was 16, for instance,
blood poisoning developed in his
left leg. As it spread, doctors
urged amputation, saying it was
his leg or his life But young
Dwight exacted a promise front
brother Edgar to prevent am-
putation. The while family
prayed. "Only a miracle will
save his leg," doctors told them
— but three weeks later Dwight
walked out on two sound legs.
This incident deeply impress-
ed the future President. He had
won his battle, but the real
miracle, he believed, had been
wrought by a higher power. It
was natural that years later, in
July 1943, he should turn to that
higher power again. It was the
zero hour for the all-out assault
on Sicily. Alone, the Allied com-

mancler went to a high point
overlooking Malta,
Much was at stake in this
gamble. The carefully laid plans
called for coordinating airborne
and Waterborne troops, throw-
ing them against battle -harden-
ed Axis defenders. Now a wind
had sprung up, which could play
havoc with paratroops and as-
sault craft.
As he heard the roar of
planes starting up and watched
the ships push off in the moon-
light, General Ike's hand came
up in salute. Then he dropped
to his knees and prayed for
help.
But probably his most heart-
warming experience came after
his 1955 heart attack. People all
over the U.S. prayed for the
President. One writer described
the people praying in the Eisen-
hower Memorial Chapel in Den-
ver: "There were busy men in
sedate Ivy League suits, and
men in sharp sport jackets; wo-
men of mature years; housewives
with children, pert stenographers
on coffee breaks."
Prayer and religion are neces-
sary to democracy, the President
believes. He has pointed out that
the founding fathers conceived
the U.S. as a nation under God;
they recognized man's rights of
equality and liberty. Equality,
as the President sees it, means
spiritual equality — recognition
of the worth of the individual.
Liberty includes self-discipline,
so that one man's freedom does
not impinge on others. To the
President it adds up to this:
When Americans practice de-
mocracy, they practice the Gol-
den Rule which threads through
many religions.
As Chief Executive of a large
and powerful nation, the Presi-
dent particularly feels his own
need of prayer. Without it, he
once said, he could not fulfill
the responsibilities of his office.
When making a decision, he
prays for light on the best course
to pursue. When he gets it, he
prays for strength and courage
to follow through , , .
One of his most cherished
hopes is that the people of the
U.S. will take a vital interest in
their religion. He proudly stated
in a recent speech that the dis-
tribution of Bibles in the U.S.
had doubled since 1948 and
church attendance had increased
62 per cent since 1946.
But probably his most per-
sistent campaign is the one he
wages for peace. The night be-
fore he left for the Geneva Con-
ference in 1955, ho called on
people.all over the world to pray
for peace. Arriving in Geneva,
he went immediately to church
to pray. Getting back to Wash-
' ington on a rainy Sunday morn-
ing, he hurried to be in his usual
place in National Presbyterian
Church.
Prayer, the President is con-
vinced, is not only the greatest
power but the greatest privilege
in the world. It is available to
everybody, high or low, rich or
poor. No appointment is needed,
No fee is charged for going to
the source of wisdom for a
renewal of faith, for light on
problems, for hope, strength,
courage, These things Ike be-
lieves. —Detroit Free Press.

The American Sheep Produ-
cers Council has issued some
pointers t n how to cook lamb
properly. They are few and
simple—but highly important
1. Always cook lamb accord-
ing to cut.
2. Always cook it at low tem-
perature.
3. Never overco 'k.
Simple, isn't it? Another rule
given by these experts is that
lamb should be served hot or
else cold—never serve it luke-
•
warm,
Most cuts of lamb are tender,
to they may be cooked by dry
heat. Leg, shoulder, rib, and
loin are usually roasted, Chops
from these cuts are broiled, pan-
broiled or fried. Shanks, breast,
riblets, stew meat, and neck
slices should be cooked by moist
heat, either by braising or sim-
mering.
When you bring home lamb
be sure to remove wrappings at
once, because lamb should be
stored in the coldest part of the
refrigerator uncovered or loose-
ly wrapped in waxed paper. Un-
cooked lamb should be stored at
a temperature of 32°-40° F.
If you bring home a piece of
frozen lamb, store at zero or
lower, if possible. If you defrost
it before cooking, cook as soon
as possible after defrosting.
Cooked lamb should always be
stored in the refrigerator.

If you want to bring a foreign
dish into the family -approved
recipe class, try this modified
type of curry of lamb. India,
Arabia, and the Near East are
the homes of curried lamb and
rice, but there they are made
intensely flavored with curry
and fiery hot. A good plan is to
start with 1 teaspoon curry
powder in the following recipe,
and if you find your family likes
more, add it with caution and
much tasting!
Curry of Lamb
1 pound Iamb shoulder
Salt, pepper, and paprika
2 tablespoons shortening
1 cup diced celery
V, cup sliced onion
% cup water
2 tablespoons flour
1 teaspodn curry powder
114 cups water
14 cup pickle relish, or orange
marmalade
2 cups hot cooked rice
Cut lamb into 1 -inch pieces;
season. Brown in hot shortening
in heavy frying pan. Add celery,
onion, and 1/2 cup water. Cover.
Simmer 1 hour, Mix curry pow-
der and flour with V4 cup water.
Stir and add to lamb. Add re-
maining 1 cup water. Cook
slowly 10 minutes. Season to
taste. Stir in pickle relish. Make
a ring of the hot rice and serve
Iamb curry in center. Serve
with either Indian chutney or
sliced tart apples and tomatoes
as a garnish.

If lamb shanks are on the
menu in a restaurant, have yoil
noticed that many men order
them? You can serve them for
your favorite man at home.
Try these — they'll be brown,
fork -tender, and intriguingly
flavored with cranberry.
Lamb Shanks
4 lamb shanks (1V:, lbs. each)
H cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/ cup shortening
2 cups cranberries
11/4 cups water
8 whole cloves
2 sticks cinnamon (or 2 tea-
spoons ground)
3 tablespoons sugar
'/3 tablespoons flour
74 cup water
Wash Iamb shanks in cold
water; pat dry with paper towel.
Dip in a mixture of flour, salt,
and pepper to coat thoroughly.
Pan fry in shortening in a heavy
skillet until well browned.
Meanwhile, boll cranberries in
11/4 cups water until skins pop
(about 5 minutes). Add spices
and pour over brown shanks,
Cover and simmer, or bake in
300°F. oven for 21 to 3 hours,
or until meat is fork tender,
Remove shanks and arrange on
hot platter. Make a sauce in
pan where shanks were cooked
by stirring in the blended flour
and sugar and water. Serve
with lemon slices, garnished
with whole cranberries, Serves 4.

This 'recipe for lamb kabobs
and rice serves only two, but
you can multiply it by as many
as you desire.
Lamb Kabobs and Rice
18 squares (11x2 inches) of
tenckr lamb, boneless and
cut cross-grained
8 tiny whole onions peeled
8 squares green pepper (2 -inch
squares)
8 tiny tomatoes or wedges
% cup olive oil
V cup vinegar (tarragon prefer-
ably)
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon salt
3teaspoons prepared mustard
Y teaspoon pepper
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
>� cup quick -cooking rice
Wipe lamb cubes with damp
cloth. Place in large bowl with
vegetables, Mx remaining ingre-
dients except rice, and add to
contents of bowl. Let stand in
refrigerator for 2 hours, stirring
several times. Arrange lamb and
vegetables in four long or six
short skewers (metal nut picks
are good substitutes). For well
done lamb, leave space between
pieces on skewers; for rare,
place close together. Broil under
medium , heat 10-12 minutes,
turning until well browned,
Serve with quick Turkish rice
made by adding ice cubes to
1h cup bacon grease to make 3/4
cup cold liquid. Add to instant
rice and cook according to pack-
age directions.
Cabbage Salad
A good salad is this; make
plenty of it as there are usually
calls for several helpings.
Shred red cabbage, break let-
tuce into small pieces with fin-
gers, cut celery into small
pieces, cut up hard-boiled eggs,
and mix together. Add salt and
your favorite dressing, Red or
white onions can be added if
desired.

Barefoot Sandals
Getting Popular
Visitors to I-Iawaii can pur-
chase three or four pairs of
barefoot sandals for the price
of one pair of dressy shoes,
thereby saving luggage space as
well as insuring cool foot com-
fort for sight-seeing. And the
popularity of this traditional
footwear is now boosting its
manufacture into a million dol-
lar business.
Many children in Honolulu
actually go barefoot to school,
but, after the elementary grades,
they usually wear the simplest
footgear ever made—a rubber
or leather sole with a single
thong along the instep, anchor-
ed between the large toe and
second toe. A sidewalk survey
in Waikiki or downtown Hon-
olulu indicates that at least half
the adult population wears the
same open-air shoe,
This style is a streamlined
modification of the Japanese
zori, a high straw mat sole with
a thick velour thong, still worn
by many older Oriental people
in Hawaii, but hard on the shoe -
compressed feet of Occidentals.
Today most of the modern rub-
ber zoris, in all colors, are im-
ported from Japan, and are sold
for a dollar or two in all kinds
of stores.
IIowever, during World War
II, when zori importation was
cut off, Honolulu slipper manu-
facturers began to fabricate
zoris out of inner tubes and
laminated cardboard or denim,
These wore like iron, but were
not widely marketable in a
style -conscious touring city
writes Janet Faure in The Chris-
tian Science Monitor,
A few more enterprising san-
dal makers therefore began to
dress up the simple zori, and
after World War II brought out
thong sandals in black leather,
simple and classic in design,
which women could wear with
any daytime outflt, even in
towns. Every year this basic de-
sign has been varied and ampli-
fied, so that today one can find,
in all shoe stores, a variety of
strap treatment:
There are black straps with
gold or silver leaf; corded silver
or gold leaf straps with rosettes;
four -spider straps with rosettes;
silver straps with rhinestones;
elasticized straw straps; red or
gold .embossed leather straps
with Chinese, Indian, or Ha-
waiian designs; Filipino burl
fabric straps with fringed edges
or pompons and tiny Japanese
dolls.
The sole may be the usual
half -inch -thick leather and rub
ber; it may be thicker and soft-
er with a foam rubber insole; or
it may have a modified wedge.
Manufacturers also make cross -
strap sandals, because the be-
tween -the -toe thong is hard for
some people to get used to—it
takes a few days of wearing to
toughen the area where the
thong rubs,
Because some women tourists
take back home a dozen or more
pairs of Hawaiian sandals, the
style is becoming popular at
Mainland resorts, and exported
"made in Hawaii" sandals now
account for one-third of the
Honolulu manufacturers' output.

Subway Strike And
Mud -Stuck Tractor
Whenever I go to the big city,
have the chastening feeling
at all the hullabaloo and hoo-
raw Is going on just the same on
days I'm not there. It's sort of
bard to believe this, now, as I
,it here with the morning sun-
light streaming in my window,
one foot on the wastebasket and
the other shoved into the book-
case between Butler's History
of Brownville Junction and Nine
Orations of Cicero—the com-
panionable Muse perched on my
shoulder to tell me how to spell
the hard words—for this morn-
ing New York seems distant and
unreal,
The last time I was in New
York I didn't leave the train,
but sat In my seat and thought
about this. I looked out the win-
dow and saw the crowds milling
and pushing, reflecting that this
unbelievable to-do continued
all the whilst I would be up in
the woods and alone, Since the
train arrived thirty minutes late
but left on time, New York thus
gave me back fifteen minutes
otherwise gone forever, and I
thought if just these fifteen
minutes could he distributed
equally among the folks on the
platform they could all slow
down a little,
. I commented on this to a man
across the aisle, and he said that
in traveling this route twice a
week for eighteen years the
train schedules had similarly
restored to him the rough equi-
valent of about fourteen months,
but that since he had never left
his seat he couldn't really say
that he had ever been in New
York.
Of course, while 1 discharge
the daily duties of my' up -coun-
try career, nobody in New York
knows about it, if he cares. This
was beautifully demonstrated
by the widespread disinterest
when I got my tractor stuck in
the mud the same day the New
York subway strike took effect.
The result of the strike was con-
fusion, inconvenience, and hard-
ship—and things were in bad
shape here, too. The great dif-
ference was that all the news-
papers devoted front-page space
to the subway strike, and the
great turmoil of the erstwhile
patrons, whereas nobody asked
Ino how I felt, and no photo-
graphers sloshed up through the
ooze to see how I was making
out.
It was a lovely morning here.
A thick rime frost had forrned
in the night, and.. the rising sun
hit it with unerring accuracy
and distributed beauty over all.
I climbed on the tractor seat,
pulling the trailer, and rode
pleasantly down behind the
barn, up through the hayfield,

beyond the orchards, and Into
the black growth,
I was after some Christmas
trees, I like to cut a few and
set them by the road in hopes
of a sale, I never sell any, much,
but this way I can control the
giving away. If I leave them up
in the woods, people come from
great distances to carry them
off, and I have no way of know-
ing who gets them,
So, like all the New Yorkers
on this same morning, I went to
business, riding along with a
good feeling for all, and some-
thing of the pre -Christmas spirit
dominant, The big tractor
wheels crunched on the light
snow or the hoar frost along the
woodroad, and here and there
broke through the thin ice of
the wet spots. Shortly I arrived
and put the ax to work.
I don't just cut Christmas
trees at such a time. I knock a
few limbs off pines, and cut out
spent Gatchell birches, and tip
over defunct specimens of all
kinds. There's a lot of cleaning
up around a woodlot. I look for
beanpoles, and grape arbor ma-
terial, and maybe hack out a
hardwood piece here and there
for firewood. I could have cut
my Christmas trees in fifteen
minutes and gone home, but it
wouldn't have been so much
fun. The forenoon moved along,
and the weather warmed.
When at last I started for
home, the big tractor wheels
surged as I released the clutch,
gave a deep sigh and settled in-
to the mud. The frost had let go.
I got off the seat to see how
things stood, and must have felt
much like a New Yorker when
he got ready to go home and
found there was no subway. I
considered arbitration and medi-
ation, and pondered the juris-
dictional questions. I wondered
if I could get a writ of manda-
mus.
Of course, as I say, I didn't
know about the subway strike
in New York, any more than
those folks knew about me. We
experienced this thing separate-
ly, without collusion, but we
must have both had that sante
let -down feeling that comes at
the other end of the run when
your trarjsportation has been
annulled.
I understand the New Yorkers
ran for the railroads, and that
the 'alternative failed from over-
emphasis. I bar' no alternative,
unless you �c: e'er myself as
such. I dug the saovel from un-
der the Christmas trees, got out
,the length of chain, and then sat
on a stump to think things over.
This is a good way to begin,
really. You can often do as much
good sitting on a stump as you
can digging, such as mud, Then
I brought some rocks, and shov-
elled a little, and climbed back
on the seat to see if the strike
was over, It was not.
I then walked home. It, was
dinnertime, and I was hungry.
It's a little over a mile, and it's
hard walking on the early win-
ter inch or two of rain-sogged
snow. I had my dinner, read the
mail, watered the hens, and re-
turned to my problem,
Now, it's a curious thing, but
being stuck in the mud is some-
thing you can often get out of
by going home to dinner. By the
time I got back the ooze had
settled itself under the wheels,
somehow, and when I got on
the seat and gently let out the
clutch, the tractor came walking
out of the mud, trailer and all,
as if it had never been stuck. I
drove on up to the buildings,
and thus ended the adventure.
I itemize the details, because
I see no essential difference be-
tween, my being stuck and the
New York subway strike. There
were more people involved, but
that is purely relative. New
York wasn't buttoned up and
rendered immobile any more
than I was. Yet the subway
strike was treated as big news,
and nobody knew about mc. I
merely demand equal time.—By

Scieince Monitor.

No method has yet been de-
vised to eliminate the bacterial
ring rot organism from the po-
tato seed piece, but according to
Dr, D. S. MacLachlan of the
Science Service Division of the
Canada Department of Agricul-
ture, the disease can be pre-
vented from spreading by the
disinfection of all handling
equipment and storage bins, and
the use of certified or founda-
tion seed.
• • •
Bacterial ring rot, an ex-
tremely infectious bacterial di-
sease is possibly the most seri-
ous of all potato diseases known
today. Infection takes place
through the seed piece, the only
known way in which infection
can occur. There is no evidence
that the organism overwinters
in the soil or can be spread by
any insect. To a large degree
the cutting knife is responsible
for a high percentage of ring
rot infection, As many as 50 to
100 potato sets may be contam-
inated by the knife following a
cut through an infected tuber,
For this reason the knife should
be clipped in a disinfectant after
each potato is cut.
•
Studies on the extent of di-
sease transmission to potato sets
from contaminated bags, indi-
cates that from three to six per
cent of ring rot infection may
come from this source, This can
be eliminated through the' use
of fumigants • and heat treat-
ments, but the search for a more
rapid and efficient method of
disinfection is continuing.
* • •
Over the past three years, re-
search in Ottawa has shown that
certain newer type disinfectants
are much more effective than
older conventional types such as
formalin or copper sulphate.
These newer materials pene-
trate more rapidly through jute
strands of potato bags and into
cracks and splinters of storage
rooms, Most of these newer ma-
terials such as 'Teramine, San-
o-fec 25 and Ocean 101 are reas-
onably priced and, readily avail-
able.
• • •
The development of resistant
varieties is the obvious solation
to the ring rot problem and for
several years now research 011
this aspect of control has been
done in both Canada and the
United States. The variety Te-
ton, developed a few years ago,
and the Merrimac variety, a re-
cent introduction from the Uni-
ted Stales, both show some re-
sistance to the organism. Unfor-
tunately these varieties are not
completely immune to ring rot
and therefore present a certain
hazard as symptomless carrier's
of the disease.
• • •
Although sound, uninjured
potato 'seed pieces very seldom
give rise to the bat;terial disease
blackleg, studies by the Science
Service Laboratory, Canada De-
partment of Agriculture, show a
considerable reduction in the
incidence ot blackleg when
whole tubers are planted in
place of the usual cut seed
pieces, In these tests, tubers in-
oculated with the organisms and
planted whole, produced no di-
seased plants. On the other
hand, seed pieces from Inocu-
lated tubers produced a 20 per
cent infection. When the indi-
vidual seed pieces were inocu-
lated and planted the infection
increased to almost 30 per cent.
•
In areas where potato black-
leg is a constant problem, the
disinfection of seed pieces in-
volving a ten minute soak in
streptomycin sulphate is recom-
menced, Seed treatment tests at
Charlottetown also indicate that
acid mercuric chloride and a
mixture of Semesan Bel and the
anti -biotic Agristrep will give
reasonably good results.
• • •
If possible, potatoes should
not be planted in fields -that are
low and wet during the early
part of the season and crop ro-
taticn should be practised. Pro-
per disposal of decaying tubers
and cull piles will greatly re-
duce the possibility of blackleg
spread by the seed corn maggot.
•••
The blackleg organism sur-
vives from year to year in the
soil, or in infected seed pieces.
The organism enters the stem
from the seed piece and causes
a softening and blackening of
the lower portions of the stem,
The branches become more up-
right than normal, and the shoot
becomes pale and yellowish. The
newly formed tubers may be
invaded by the organism, caus-
ing a soft rot of the central por-
tions of the tuber starting at the
stem end,
Many certified seed growers
are now planting small, whole
seed, but seed of this size is
scarce.
Metric Measure
Japan has added itself to the
list of countries which gradu-
ally, or more so, are pushing
the use of the metric system of
weights and measures as against
English yards, quarts, a n d
pounds.
In the Orient the need for
uniformity is extreme. Custom
employs a mixture of Chinese,
Japanese, Korean, or Hindu
units as well as English and
metric.
If metric measure does eventu-
ally displace traditional English
units a number of familiar say-
ings will have to be revised —
or read as children now read
of cubits and farthings. For in-
stance, "An ounce of prevention
is worth a pound of cure" 1vi,11
become rather ponderous if
translated into 28.35 and 453.60
grams. And 2.4 kilometers will
hardly fit the poetic meter for
"Half a league onward!"
Of course, there always has
been a wide variety of measures.
Such as that of the Southern
"mammy" who tried to describe
how much molasses she used in
her gingerbread. Mentally lis-
tening to the gurgle of syrup
'from the jug, she "reckoned" it
would be "about two gullollops
an' a drip." The engineer deal-
ing with fuel injection into an
internal combustion engine at
4,500 r.p.m. doubtless will prefer
to deal with ten -thousandths (or
less) of a cubic millimeter at 20
degrees centigrade. -- From The

LESSON
By Rev, R. Barclay iVarren
B.A., B,D,
Organization of the Church
Romans 12:3-8; 1 Timothy 3:1-11
Memory Selection: Take heed
therefore unto yourselves, and
to all the flock, over which the
Holy Ghost hath made you over-
seers, to feed the church of God,
which he hath purchased with
his own blood. Acts 20:28.
All genuine Christians are one
body in Christ and every one
members one of another, This la
an intimate relation. Each ot
us has different gifts and hence
different functions in the church
of Jesus Christ. It is important
that we exercise to the full our
God-given gifts to the building
of the body of Christ. We must
maintain that beautiful oneness
of spirit with God's children re-
gardless of their colour, race or
religion denomination.
Professed Christians belong to
many different denomination§
with different patterns of or-
ganization. We must not confuse
membership in the body of
Christ with membership in a
denomination. We may belong
to a church and not belong to
Christ. Ananias and Sapphira be-
longed to the church but were
really hypocrites. There are still
many hypocrites but that is na
reason why we should not asso-
ciate ourselves with a church.
In the beginning of the church
the organization was closely pat-
terned after the synagogue, each
of which had its elders. But tha
choosing of deacons was some-
thing new and was clone to meet
a need that arose. There was
no divine command involved, but
the use of common sense.
In the first century while each
church had its elders, frequently
one would stand out in promin-
ence above the rest. We find this
in the church at Jerusalem when
Paul reached that city at ti21
close of his third tour. We readc
"Paul went in with us unto
James; and all the elders were
present," (Acts 21:18. James,
of outstanding personality, was
their leader. Later Paul told
Titus to appoint elders.
Paul sets forth a high stand-
ard for leaders in the church.
They must be proven Christiana
before becoming deacons or
overseers in the church. More
men with these qualifications off
godliness and leadership are
needed today.
Handkerchiefs decorated with
road safety slogans are to Ise
given youngsters, aged 5 to 1'
in a London, Eng. suburb, in at
effort to reduce road accidents.
Where There's A Will There's A Way
living proof that stick-to-it-
iveness pays off is Edward
Emeigh, 31, of New Alexan-
dria, He wanted to be a truck
driver, but standing only four
feet, two inches, and weighing
101 pounds, the odds seemed
to be against him. However,
with the assistance of Walter
Ramaley, owner of an equip-
ment and supply company in
his home town, Ed set out to
overcome his difficulties. He
own so that he could drive one
added a few refinements of his
of the trucks — a mammoth 24 -
ton concrete mixer. On the fob
he finds his short stature is no
handicap in climbing over the
truck to inspect the concrete
mixer. He's been driving for
several years now, and has a
perfect safety record.
Ed uses power steering, pillow, tool box and elongated pedals.
Big climb for little low.
Driving is pleasure — either in truck or his own automobile.

Dear Anne Hirst:
Do other girls keep on waiting
marry a boy to whom they're
engaged while he just makes one
excuse after another on naming
the day? I've never heard of
such a trick, but maybe they are
just ashamed to admit it . .
I've been going with this soldier
for two years, and every time
he gets home he says it's better
to wait, or that next time it.will
be O.K. — always letting me
down. I really believe he loves
ane; he writes twice a week and
sends me nice gifts, and when
lie's on furlough we date every
night.
"He's a handsome guy, and
all the girls give him the eye,
but he never takes a second
glance. I am 18, but I've been
going with boys four years and
now I am ready to get married,
He is 22, and I know !for sure he
is the only man I want for my
husband. I do trust hint to be
loyal, but why does he shy at
•marriage?
"I ata dreaming on, planning
our future, but underneath I
am really scared. I know he is
in love (he shows it) but we
both keep our wits ... Now he
k due home next month and
again my hopes run high—yet

You do not mention how
your parents feel about this
lad's procrastination. If they
approve your marrying him,
tell him when he arrives that
they aro waiting to announce
the engagement and the wed-
ding day. If you have neither
parents nor guardian, then he
brave and say now is the time
to set the day, or else.
If you have not started what
we oldsters call your hope -
chest, start it now, and have
something tangible to show
him. The exhibit will either
delight him or shock him, and
you will feel better tnfodi
you will feel better to find out
which it is to be. Usually I
would not suggest the idea,
but you have been so patient
that you deserve to know
where your future lies. Many
" a lad is so content with being
1 engaged that he docs not
realize how postponing the
w marriage hurts the girl's pride
as well as her heart,
It is not fair, I think you
• are justified in approaching
him, and I hope with you that
• he arranges an early wedding.

"Dear Anne Hirst:
I have recently become en-
gaged to a young man who is
the most charming person I've
ever known, but I have just
found out he drinks more than
he should. Shall I go ahead with
OW' plans to marry in February?
"He actually seems proud
that he seldom shows the effects
id his drinking. He enjoys even-
ings in taverns with the friends
he meets there. Well, I don't
want them for mine.
"Do you think I could make
him see things my way after we
est married? UNDECIDED"
Too many broken - hearted
wives have made this mistake.
11 a man does not stop drink-
ing before he marries, he is not
▪ likely to reform afterward. If
• this man enjoys his question-
able friends now, he will con-
- tinue to later; but then you
J would be living with him, and
have to accept them, too. What
kind of life is that for a
gentlewoman like you?
If he will not give up drink-
ing for- your .sake, he is not
• for you. I know you believe
you can never love anyone
else, but life, even lived alone,
is happier than life spent with
a drinking husband.
Sometimes an engaged young
man needs prodding. If your
iionce puts off marriage, take
your courage in hand and pre-
sent the issue ... Anne Hirst
understands, and is on your side.

HRONICLE;
INGERFAR
Gwetdolin.e P. Clezke
There have been a few oc-
casions in our lives when, had
we reacted differently, we might
have been the victims of a
racket. Glib salesmen, as you
probably know, often come
around and offer you wonderful
bargains on anything from
books and linoleum to dairy
mineral rations, Once, years
ago, we did buy an encyclo-
pedia. It wasn't too bad for gen-
eral information except that the
views expressed were entirely
American, and from an histori-
cal point of view that didn't go
down too well.
Well, last week I just about
saw red. As you may know—if
you follow this column, my sis-
ter died just recently, and what
I got in the mail yesterday made
me feel that there must surely
be a racket to capitalize on al-
most everything, even on one's
personal sorrow and bereave-
ment, This was none other than
a copy of my sister's obituary
that appeared in the Peterbor-
ough Examiner and was mount-
ed between two sheets of plastic
and offered as "a permanent re-
cord" for the price of one dol-
lar. An order form was en-
closed for additional copies.
There was also a cover letter in
falsely sympathetic and semi-
religious wording which, how-
ever, did not forget to mention
that one dollar for each copy of
the obituary was required. And
all this, if you please, was sent
from Memphis, U.S.A. The more
I thought of it the less I liked
it. But then I began to wonder
if I were unduly sensitive so I
thought I would phone the Bet -
sr Business Bureau and get
their opinion. Was it a racket
or wasn't it? I soon got my an-
swer — in the affirmative. I was
advised that since no return
postage was enclosed I was un-
der no obligation to return the
thing—just to hold it for awhile
and await results. Afterward' it
could he destroyed if I so de-
sired. The Bureau was familiar
with this racket but said they
were powerless to prevent it;
that it was entirely up to the
Federal Postal Authorities to
stop unsolicited appeals coming
through the mail.
So that's that. What annoyed
me so much was the feeling of
uncertainty it aroused. Here
was this obituary, well worded
I and sympathetically written,
iust as it was submitted by local
reporters to the Peterborough
t Iper, and the plastic covers
w:,uld undoubtedly preserve it
indefinitely. Wouldn't it be only
n,turai to send a 'dollar and
ep it? Wouldn't it appear cal -
His not to do so? But then I
h gan to reason things out. Af-
t r all it Was only a clipping
Iran, a paper; 1 could get as
many copies as I liked from the
Peterborough paper—and cover
' thein with plastic myself if I
wanted to. That was a practical
way of looking at it but what
really decided me against tak-
ing "advantage" of the Offer was
the false tone of sympathy in
the letter, which concluded "We
extend sincere sympathy in your
loss. May the grace of our
Heavenly Father be with you
and comfort you in your time of
sorrow." Sympathy—at a dollar
a copy! No thank you. Sympathy
from friends I am glad to ac-
cept. A card which came to me
from the W.1. branch of which
I am a life member was also
greatly appreciated. But sym-
pathy with a commercial flavour
is nothing more or less than im-
pertinence to my way of think-
ing; an infringement on person-
al feelings during a time of
stress and sorrow.
No doubt other people have
been approached in this same
way. The Better Business Bu-
reau says it is a matter that
can be dealt with only by the .
postal authorities. Then for
goodness sake, • why don't they
stop it? Why should ordinary
Canadian citizens be subjected
to this sort of indignity? Sure-
ly in a time of bereavement re-
latives are entitled to a certain
amount 'of privacy and respect.
Of course there are dozens of
other rackets ready to trap the
unwary but to me this is the
worst I have come across. I
might add, that in this, as with
other unsolicited material, the
Better Business Bureau is al-
ways ready to advise. They are
continually bringing to light
ways and means by which the
public is victimized, It is hard
to be absolutely sure when we
are dealing with honest people.
A peddler may be an honest
man, unemployed and trying to
make a living. 1f so he needs
references. There are too many
men taking pictures of children
and charging more than they
are worth. Or repair men giv-
ing you absolute assurance they
can fix your T.V. Don't ever
let your set out of the house ex-
cept to a reputable repair man.
There is one or more in every
district if you take the trouble
to inquire, Generally they are
far too busy to solicit custom.
You go to them.
Well, I am hoping this col-
umn may be read at a few W.I.
meetings where it will do the
most good, Generally speaking
larm folk are so honest and
straight -forward themselves it
doesn't occur to them to doubt
the other fellow. But you
)snow, it takes all kinds to make
a world. Better be safe than
sorry.
Madness Pays Off
In Television
"Frankenstein" with Boris Kar-
Iotp was playing a late show in
Grand Rapids last week; "The
Son of Frankenstein" was in'
Buffalo and Indianopolis, In At-
lanta it was "'Dracula" -with Bela
Lugosi; in Tacoma, "The Son of
Dracula." From coast to coast,
the midnight air was filled with
everything from "Dead Man's
Eyes" and "Weird Woman" to
"Night Monster." All together
they added up to one new fact
of television life — horror is hot,
Perhaps the most remarkable
thing about the trend was that
it had not happened before, The
movies, after all, have long found
horror films cheap, profitable
fare; radio had its "Light Out,"
"Suspense," and "Dr. Fu Man-
chu," But since 1952, when the
TV version of "Lights -Out" fell
victim to the bouncy "I Love
Lucy," horror for horror's sake`
had raised no hackles on TV
ratings,
Last season, television execu-
tive; awoke when they noted
that a New York showing of the
old movie "King Kong" was
watched in an estimated 90 per
cent of the TV homes — an all-
time record. Screen Gems, the
proud possessor of TV rights for
old Universal -International films,
suddenly realized that among
their 600 movies there were doz-
ens that fell into the mad- scien-
tist, zombi, weird -story category.
Hurriedly, they selected 52 of
the very goriest, wrapped them
into a package called "Shock,
and began peddling them for
showing this fall,
"Shock" went on the air in
October with big publicity cam-
paigns in five leading markets,
(Preview parties were held in
abandoned TV. studios, with
masked wafters serving buckets
of "blood"; models in fright wigs
delivered shrunken heads and
"Do -It -Yourself Nightmare Kits"
to newspaper offices.) 13y last
week hock" .was playing to
ceiling -high ratings in 90 cities.
In Berkeley, Calif., "Dracula"
had inspired a demonstration by
1,200 white -sheeted students. In
Philadelphia, 100 fan clubs had
sprung up for Roland, the an-
nouncer, who, with ghoulish
make-up and props introduced
the films.
Threats that the shows might
be "investigated" by the National
Association of Radio and Tele-
vision Broadcasters, the National
Association for Better Radio and
TV. and 'various civic - groups
drew from the producers defen-
sive protests that the horror films
were strictly for laughs. Psy-
chologists got into the act with
sober analyses, of the appeal of
this horror fare. According• to
motivational researcher Ernest
Ditchter's dicta, the Frankenstein
monster represents "the power
of the Creator," the Invisible
Man represents "the power of
omnipotence," King Kong "tfie
power of brutishness," and
Dracula "the p ewer of ,resurrect.
tion." -
Whatever subconscious need],
it may be anwsering last week
horror TV seemed to be a pro-
gram staple, Screen Gems was
already wrapping up 52 more
scare films for a second "Shock"
ackage, and had signed a con-
tract to deliver a 39 -part series to
ABC called "Tales of Franken-
stein," In the planning stages; A
new series based on "The In-
visible Man," Madame Tussaud'g
wtixworks, and France's macabre
Grand Guignol theater. — From

Annual Meeting of Shareholders
The Royal Bank of Canada
James Muir declares 'Electors
and Government jointly
responsible with Business and
Labour in curbing inflation
Creation of new financial institution suggested
to fill need for more adequate long term
export financing. Time ripe for Money Market
to assume more positive function.
Although the round-robin of
cost and price rises is undoubted-
ly an inflationary factor, even
the best intentions on the part
of both labour and management
cannot long resist an inflation-
ary environment created by ex-
cess spending through errors or
inefficiency of monetary and fis-
cal management, declared James
Muir, Chairman and President
of the Royal Bank of Canada
in his address at the bank's an-
nual meeting in Montreal on
Thursday, January Oth. "In such
a situation, wages would rise
even without trade unions to
press for them," said Mr. Muir.
'The employer finds ,that •to in-
crease production in responseto
rising demands, he must bid for
labour at a higher price. He may
often find it necessary to raise
prices, but these higher prices
can be paid only because the
original inflationary environment
makes it possible for his cus-
tomers to pay them. Under these
conditions, wages and profits rise
together, but they are symptoms
rather than the cause of inflation.
"However, once the circle is
broken, by effective monetary
and fiscal policy, mutual res-
traint is clearly In order. Profits
fall first and unions might well
at this point temper the wind
to the shorn lamb. In fact, if
we are to obtain not merely full
employment and growth, but
stability as well, the exercise of
restraint in making demands
must become the responsibility
not only of labour and business,
but of electorate and government
as well."
FRE! EXCHANGE RATE
Mr. Muir mentioned that
among the 'built-in stabilizers' of
the economy is Canada's free
foreign exchange rate, and point -
Id out that in the absence of
flexible price levels and with a
domestice fiscal policy geared to
'full employment', the floating
exchange rate provides the only
mechanism of adjustment, other
than rigid exchange controls, to
the ever-changing requirements
for equilibrium in Canada's in-
ternational accounts. "It is some-
times argued that the investment
flow covers our trade deficit,"
said Mr. Muir, "and that any
stoppage of this flow would be
disastrous. But we should re-
member first that a large part of
our imports are the result of
the inflow of investment funds;
and, second, that, should foreign
investment (a n d investment -
induced imports) fall off, our
flexible exchangerate provides
an automatic device for adjust-
ing any deficit remaining in our
trade in goods and services with
the outside world"
HELP FOR EXPORTERS
Mr. Muir pointed out that de-
serving businessmen seeking ex-
port markets may be hampered
by inadequate export financing
compared with that available to
their foreign competitors. "As
matters stand at the moment," he
explained, "we have an absurd
situation. A Canadian industry,
for example, obtains an order
from abroad amounting to mil-
lions of dollars and the export
Credits Insurance Corporation
guarantees to any lender the re-
payment of this paper over a
period of years. However, when

Royal Bank _Head
Reviews Past,
Envisions Future
Mr. James Muir, Chairman
and president, said: "I shall not
attempt today to determine
whether in the gobbledy-gook
of economic forecasting we are
having a 'recession' or a 'rolling
readjustment'.. Whatever we call
the phenomenon it is abundant-
ly clear that, though all infla-
tionary forces have not' disap-
peared, we have reached what
seems to be the end of the latest
inflationary surge. A mild slump
at this time should cause little
surprise or apprehension: it

. "Lower interest rates do not
paean that money has become
really 'easy' and it is unlikely,
in my view, that the time is yet
ripe to adopt either deficit finan-
cing by government or easy
money policies by the monetary
authority and, the chartered
banks. It would seem that now,
u in 1053 and 1054, price ad-
justments are necessary to main-
tain stability and prosperity at
home and to ensure our compet-
itive position in .world markets.
The fact that lower raw material
costs have not been rAlected In
SMALL BORROWER
NOT NEGLECTED
"Generally speaking, banks
are in position to take care
of the legitimate needs of all
credit -worthy small to moder-
ate borrowers," said Mr, Muir,
"In the past few months, how-
ever, there has been a great
to-do about scarcity of credit
for this sector of our economy;
and government authorities
have apparently become ex-
ercised about it, Frankly, I
am baffled when I read of
these things and I cannot es-
cape the impression that the
whole case must be grossly
exaggerated, or that, perhaps
without realizing it, we may
be witnessing an evolution in
this field. It may be that a
fundamental change is taking
place in our economy and that
the small merchant is experi-
encing something that credit
cannot help. There is some
evidence not only that sales
outlets are becoming more and
more, concentrated, but that
sales and production units are
developing an increasingly
close relationship with one
another.
"From the inception of the
tight money policy, your bank
has made it clear by word of
mouth and by repeated writ-
ten communications to all of
our branches that they were
/still required to deal sympa-
thetically with applications for
personal and small business
Loans.
"In spite of our lending pol-
icy there has been a reduction
not only; in the number of bor-
rowers but a substantial re-
duction as well in the amount
borrowed in this particular
field.- As far as this bank is
concerned, the credit facilities
have been available, our Man-
agers have known of this pol-
icy, and yet it would seem
that small borrowers have not
taken advantage of their op-
portunities to obtain credit."
financing, we have no device
within this country suitable to
his needs.
"What he requires is the dis-
count of paper maturing over
a period of years or a term loan
for, a similar period secured by
that paper. During a period of
tight money, the chartered banks
do not have available in any
quantity funds for this purpose.
The result has been that some
of our Canadian corporations
have had to go outside the coun-
try to arrange their credit re-
quirements with non -Canadian
banks. We have actually seen
cases in which the absurdity
arises that a Canadian bank is
asked to lend its customer money
which he, in turn, deposits Ntith
a non -Canadian bank to facilitate
that foreign bank's lending
operations.
"I would like to suggest that
a consortium of Canadian banks,
Canadian exporters, and perhaps
other interests, should consider
the formation of a company with
power to discount commercial
paper covering the kind of long-
term export transactions which
I have here described."
retail prices means today, as in
that earlier period, that we have
suffered not only from open in-
flation but from a concealed in-
flation of production and distri-
bution costs. The process . of
healthy adjustment would seem
now to require the elimination
through price reductions of in-
flated production and distribu-
tion costs. A tight honey policy
has inhibited inflation and has
indeed been instrumental in
breaking the circle and ending;
for the time at least, the round-
robin of cost and price increases
that can continue indefinitely
only if the money supply or the
velocity of the monetary circu-
lation is allowed to increase,"

"Four years ago I mentioned
that it might be worth while to
investigate the possibilities of a
short-term money market in Ca-
nada, Such a market did come
into being about six months
later. We should, I believe, now
study the possibilities of broad-
ening the base of our money
market. As of now the only in-
struments available foruse
within this market are Govern-
ment Treasury Bills and Govern-
hent Bonds with a maturity not
exceeding three years. What I
have particularly in mind is a

Total Assets •
have now passed
$3% billion mark
• K. M. Sedgewick, General
Manager, noted that not only
had the assets of the Royal Bank
reached the imposing total of
$3,760,544,617, but that mortgages
under the National .Housing Act
had Increased by more' than
$30,000,000, reaching a figure of
$216,590,000 which represents ap-
proximately 38% of the total for
all Canadian banks.
Mr. Sedgewick reported the
year's net profits at $13,919,550,
an increase of 11.6% over the
previous year, and that capital
funds now stand at more than
$202,000,000, "The Balance Sheet
confirms that the cash position of
the bank is strong," he said. "As-
sets in this form, coupled with
Canadian Government Treasury
Bilis and Day -to -Day Loans rep-
resent 22.5% of the bank's ag-
gregate liabilities to the public."
"Because of the peroid of so-
called digestion through which
we are now passing," remarked
Mr. Sedgewick," we look for no
particular increased demands
from industry as a whole, but
we wish to emphasize that the
real needs of our credit -worthy
customers, small or large, are of
concern to us, and are needs
which will be satisfied within the
limits of our ability,"
Discussing the bank's exten-
sive building and renovation
program, Mr. Sedgewick report-
ed that the bank now operates
a system of 821 branches in Can-
ada and 82 abroad — a total of
903, representing an increase of
31 during the past year, Includ-
ed among new branches was one
established at Frobisher Bay, the
first Canadian bank to be open-
ed in the Arctic Islands.
ROYAL BANK ABROAD
"Due to experience gained in
more than 50 years since our
first branch was established
abroad, we arc well equipped to
deal with the peculiarities of in-
ternational banking," said Mr.
Sedgewick. Referring to the BrIt-
ish West Indies area where im-
portant constitutional develop-
ments are taking place, Mr.
Sedgewick mentioned that the
bank is playing a part in assist-
ing in the economic growth of
this newly developing member
of the Commonwealth family. He
also spoke of the unusual. op-
portunities which exist for
young men with the aptitude and
desire for a career in interna-
tional banking, pointing out that
there are openings in the bank
for a select number of such
young men each year.
BROADER MONEY MARKET
Four years ago, Mr. Muir re-
called, he had mentioned that
it mlght be worth white to in-
vestigate the possibilities •of a
short-term money market in
Canada. "Such a market," he
said, "did come into being about
six months later. We should, I
believe, now study the possibili-
ties of broadening the base of
our money market. As of now,
the only instruments available
for use within this market are
Government Treasury Bills and
government bonds with a matur-
ity not exceeding three years.
What I have particularly in mind
is a study of possible steps to
achieve the stature of a real
money market, that is, a market
that would include commercial
paper in the form of bankers'
acceptances. Useful as our pries
ent money market is, it would,
I believe, be worthwhile to de-
termine whether or not it is
ready by this time to outgrow
its swaddling clothes and become
a more lusty and an increasingly
independent part of our financial
system."
include commercial paper in the
form of bankers' acceptances.
Useful as our present money
market is, it would, I believe,
be worthwhile to determine
whether or not it is ready by
this time to outgrow its swad-
dling clothes and become a more
lusty and an increasingly inde-
pendent part .of our financial
system.
"Today, in contrast to the high
spirits and great expectations of
,a few years ago, we find a grow-
ing uncertainty and lack of en-
thusiasni. This is an extreme
that we should avoid, After all,
we have the same country with
the same people, the same enor-
mous natural resources, and the
sante potential for prosperity
and economic growth, There is
no reason, therefore, for a pes-
simism born of a temporary
check to the almost unbelievable
prosperity and expansion of the
past few years, Let us then re-
member the principles of ser-
vice and humility which, in pros-
perity, we tend sometimes to
forget. But let us remember
then;, not in a spirit of gloom
and. guilt, but as sources of even
greater strength in Canada's
continuous and inspiring strug-
gle towards the great destiny
which, I believe, Providence it-
self has ordained for this young,
strong, growing giant of the
north."
Big Business
As R, H. Macy & Co,, Inc.,
began celebrating its 100th year,
a just -published book gives an
idea of the magnitude of the
giant enterprise,
Besides the parent store (19
floors, 168 selling depts,), Macy's
numbers 32 other complete de-
partment stores, including five
branches in the New York area.
Its 30,000 employes sell mer-
chandise at a $450 million -a -year
clip, packing it in 4,848 miles
of cotton twine and 5.7 million
boxes,
The whole incredible story of
the growth of this greatest of
emporia IS told in a new book
by Margaret Case Harriman,
"And the Price Is Right." She
tells Macy's story in terms of
its people from Rowland H.
Macy, the seafaring Quaker who
started it all, to autocratic "Mr.
"Jesse" Straus, who turned it
into a public corporation in 1919,
Macy set up his store in 1858
at the then -residential corner of
Fourteenth Street and Sixth
Avenue. ("Come, come, time,
time, come, come, time, time,
the time has come," roared one
of his early newspaper ads.) The
Strauss family, which had oper-
ated a china concession for Macy,
became partners in 1888, after
the founder's death, and owners
in 1896. Six years later, the
Strauses moved Macy's uptown
to Herald Square, where bright
merchandising — plus a long-
standing policy of 6 per cent off
for cash — sent Macy's rocket-
ing tosuccess.
There, beginning in the 1920s,
Kenneth Collins left oft teaching
English at Harvard to organize
the group of bright young
women who wrote the ads that
gave Macy's its modern stance.
One was Bernice Fitz -Gibbon,
who wrote the famous slogan:
"It's smart to be thrifty."
Mrs. Harriman does not over-
look such minor characters as
Toni Maloney, a porter "with the
shamrock in every syllable." A
male customer once asked Tom
if he could point out the Chintz
Room. "That I can," said Toni,
escorting him to a door labeled
"Men."
She also lists the distinguished
Macy graduates — fiscal expert
Beardsley Ruml, hat merchant
Lilly Dacha, poetess Margaret
Fishback, to name a few. An-
other later won fame on Broad-
way. "I walked out at 1 o'clock
one day and never went back,"
says actor Tom Ewell. Macy's
nevertheless sent him a full
week's pay. "I guess they didn't
miss me," Ewell adds.

Unafraid Of Toil
People in the Agricultural Ex-
tension Service at Athens
(Georgia) are quite elated this
week, and understandably so,
over the accomplishments of a
4-H Club member in growing
sweet potatoes.
Freddie McLeod had a net re-
turn of $1,152 from two acres
of sweet potatoes. Freddie is
just 13, but he prepared and
cultivated his crop with all the
forethought and care of a juve-
nile Burbank.
Naturally, he used certified
seed. The two acres received
heavy applications of fertilizer,
and the crop was hoed twice and
cultivated twice. It was properly
dusted to keep insects away;
Freddie put the money in the
bank, against the day when he
attends college. The Extension
Service happily observes that
Freddie, rt the rate he's going,
should I.: able to send money
home instead of writing hone for
help.
In these days of juvenile way-
wardness and the aversion of
many boys for anything resem-
bling toil,•the example of Fred-
die McLeod shines like a beacon.
Georgia could use to advantage
many more just like him.
