Fireside Farm Forum Meet
On March 16th, 10 adults of the
Fres:dc Farm Forum met at the home
of ;rix. and Mrs, Bert Hoggart to dis-
ci "Iinm,ocadion and Emigration,"
\rr consider the main , essentials of
immigrant to Canada should be good
health, mental alertness, willingness
t,o learn, adoptability„ good morale
and fine characte . Regarding relig-
ion, it would be fair to allow about
fi alt'
Proteestants and half Roman Ca-
tholics. Tne tight control of immigra-
tion is,a good thing and should con-
tieue. People of different races, creed
and nationality, should not be barred
if they are the typo of people who
would make good citizens and fit in
with our present population and way
of life but should be restricted as to
number. We deplore the fact that so•
many of our bright students emi-
grate to the U.S.A.
Euchre was palyed with the follow-
' ing winners: most games, Mrs, George
Carter, Don Buchanan; lone hands,
Mrs. Harvey Tay1c.•, Oliver Anderson;
consolation, Jim Howatt (playing as a
lady), Eric Anderson.

forum mei Monday evening March 16,
at the , hone of Mr. and Mrs Ross

ter the broadcast on Immigration and
Emigration, the following questions
were discussed and answered:
(1) Should Canada continue to dis-
criminate against immigrants on the
basis of color, nationality, education,
religion, health, etc?
As long as applicants are of good
character, health and ambition, there
should be no discrimination for other
reasons.

tion a good thing?
The present policy on innnigration
is about right as to numbers.

Drum has been shrouded in mys-
tery which has puzzled many
people, Did it really exist and
what was the truth about it?
At Buckland Monachorum
(Buckland -of -the -Monks), near
Yelverton, the fifteenth -century
church of St. Andrew is of great
interest concerning this subject
for here you will find the Drake.
Chapel (b u i 1 t by Sir Francis
himself during the time when
he lived at Buckland Abbey, and
rebuilt later in the reign of
James I), This chapel is full of
Drake history,
About a mile south of the
church is Buckland Abbey itself,
and this building is probably
without a rival in all Devon, so
far as tradition goes, since ;t
was the great Sir Francis Drake's
own home.
Nobody for many years has
known the exact location of this
strange drum. It appears to have
been moving about a good deal,
although it was certainly hous-
ed in Buckland Abbey when a
disastrous 'fire broke out there
some years ago. The drum has
been in the Citadel at Plymouth,
among other places, and was
supposed to have resided for
some time somewhere in Somer-
set.
The drum's chief claim to
fame lies in the fact that it was
supposed to be heard beating a
warning when Britain was in
danger. It was heard by many
during the time when Napoleon
had his huge army assembled
across the Channel with the in
tention of invading our shores.
And many believed they hacl
heard it also in the early days
of the second world war, when
Hitler started a similar panic.
Much of the mystery seems to
be dissolving nowadays. Drake's
Drum has been seen more fre-
quently, and here is one of the
most extraordinary incidents,
fully vouched for by responsible
people, in connection with the
weird relic,
In 1949, when the frigate
H.M.S. Amethyst reached Ply-
mouth after her amazing ex-
ploits when running the gaunt-
let of the Yangtze River, a re-
ception and celebration awaited
her in the Duke of Cornwall
Hotel,
Here Drake's Drum bobbed up
again after a long absence, and
a well-known Fleet Street phos
tographer set out to get a really
good picture of it. He had al-
ready taken twenty-four photo-
graphs of the general proceed-
ings and was about to expose his
twenty-fifth when he heard a
voice behind him. The photo-
grapher turned around and saw
a man standing there.
"You must not take that," the
latter said, and when asked why,
replied, "I am the owner "
"Why do you object?" asked'
the photographer,
The other gave no direct an-
swer at first, then mentioned
solemnly that the drum was
haunted,
He turned away and the photo-
grapher, grinning to himself, took
the picture — with eerie re.
sults, Twenty-four of the snaps
he took that day came out per-
fectly. Only one plate was a
complete blank—Drake's Drum!

In Storage!
Enough furniture a n d other
belongings are stored away in
Britain's depositories to "furnish
every home in at least three of
Britain's largest cities," it was
said recently.
Before the first world war, a
woman deposited a set of Victor.
ian knick-knacks which she had
inherited from her mother. The
woman lived in a small flat
which could not accommodate
them so she stored them away
at the depository, declaring that
for sentimental reasons she
would never part with them.
Only when she died a few years
ago were the knick-knacks dis-
posed of by her executors, Jig
saw puzzles are tame compared
with the problems of depository
staffs who must store every
article, large and small, so that
it is readily accessible by the
owner. One well-to-do woman
took all her furniture out of
store, and put it back again four
times in eighteen months.
Before going to live on the
Riviera, a bachelor sent all the
'furniture from his four -room
flat to a depository. He paid
the rent for ten months, but af-
ter that nothing more was heard
of him.
One British depository which
has a large room full of unclaim-
ed furniture, introduced a rule
that it would retain goods for
three years and t h e n, if the
owners could not be traced, the
goods would be sold.
Depositories have stored every-
thing from trunks full of love -
letters to a couple of human
heads of dark-skinned chieftains
which belonged to an authority
on South Sea native life and cus-
toms.
The High Push
Into Space
Many millenniums ago, the
discovery of fire enabled primi-
tive man to cook his food, warm
his cave, confound primeval
beasts that would prey on him,
and ultimately to have machines
and the stored energy of Sun and
Earth do his work for him. In the
dim recesses of recorded history,
the wheel evolved, and the lever
was discovered, A Iong time back,
the felled tree became a planked
sailing ship. The horse was tamed,
and on Iand, lake, river, and sea
man was on the move -- explor-
ing, exploiting, conquering, plun-
dering, colonizing, studying,
building, whetting his thirst for
knowledge, power, and wealth.
Gradually, through the eons he
has covered, carved up, and
parceled out this 196,940,000 -
square -mile spherical bit of celes-
tial real estate we call Earth.
Simon Lake's submarine per-
mits us to putter around a few
hundred feet below the ocean's
surface, and the Wright brothers'
wings allow us a crude kind of
flight in the lower depths of the
sea of air that envelops the
Earth. Generally speaking, how-
ever, throughout all of human
history, man has lived . , . right
here on the surface of the Earth,
And, in a restless sort of way, he
has been content. With a few
rare exceptions, he has never
even contemplated the possibility
of an alternative. Now, quietly
and in the logical course of
events, yet suddenly in the pro-
foundness of its implications, he
has another startling second
choice.
The successful launching of the
first Moon rocket divides the
course of human history into two
parts. In the one just beginning,
the infinite reaches of endless
galaxies await man's arrival, and
the Moon will be his first stop.
In the next decades there is no
aspect of human thought or ac-
tivity that will not he affected
by this incipient second phase of
man's chronicle ... Initially, man
Is pursuing this escape from
Earth for three reasons:
The first is his innate inclina-
tion to keep puhing back known
frontiers, whether geographical,
scientific, or philosophical, and
all three are involved in the push
into space. Like George Mallory
who was asked why he wanted to
assault Mount Everest and re-
plied, "Because it's there," man is
now moving into space because
it's there and because his sciences
have provided him with the
means of doing it.
The second reason for seeking
escape from Earth comes of a
military compulision, a survival
instinct.
The third reason, though per-
haps not so currently compelling
as number two, is nevertheless of
vital long-term importance. This
is the quest for knowledge. The
basic structure of matter, the ori-
gin of the planets, the solar sys-
tem, and the universe, the secret
of the chemistry of life itself, the
nature of gravity ... these are the
questions the scientists hope to
answer through the study and
exploration of space and other
celestial bodies. The questions
run to volumes, The new ques-
tions that these answers raise will
fill even greater volumes. --From
"Rocket to the Moon," by Erik
Bregaust and Seabrook Hull.

Got Lit Up On
Electric Eels
So great is the demand for eels,
in Britain to -day that extra
quantities have to be imported
from abroad, To help meet the
demand, one Dutch ship now
specializes in collecting eels from
various countries and delivering
them here.
Part of her hull has been per-
forated to let sea -water into the
tanks that carry her live, wrig-
gling cargo.
The firm, white flesh of eels
is the mdst -highly nutritious of
all otir:fis-hes,'Some• 61 the test-
iest eels come 'from Scotch salm-
on waters, although in Scotland
eels have never been popular as
food for some unexplained rea-
son,
Many an athlete has trained on
eels, firmly believing that
"there's more strength in a dish
of eels than in a pound of steak."
In Britain they have been
catching and eating freshwater
eels for centuries, In Anglo-
Saxon times grants and charters
were often regulated by pay-
ments made in eels,
Electric eels which have been
found in the Amazon grow to a
length of six feet and can give
powerful electric shocks.
Two were shown at a meeting
of the New York Zoological So-
ciety. Flexible metal bands were
fixed round the fishes and wires
attached to these bands were
connected to neon lamps and an
electric motor.
When the eels were stimulated
by tickling them, the lamps lit
up and the wheel of the motor.

Do ']lou Daydream
The Future?
Are you one of those rare
people who can remember their
daydreams from one day to the
next? If so, have you noticed
that some of these moments of
reverie seem to come true?
After nearly eighty years of
investigating telepathic dreams,
pre -vision and other psychic
phenomena,, members of the So-
ciety for Psychical Research are
turning their attention to day-
dreams — and discovering that
this harmless but apparently
time -wasting habit may supply
the key to one of the great un-
known factors of human life,
In the year 1897 an author
named Morgan Robertson day-
• dreamed of a disaster at sea. He
wrote it all down in a novel he
called "Futility," published in
1898: the story of a huge Atlantic
liner called the Titanic which,
loaded with wealthy passengers,
srtuck an iceberg and sank on
a freezing April night.
But it was not until April,
1912, that the liner Titanic sail-
ed on her maiden voyage and
met her terrible end.
In the distant year 1525 the
painter Albrecht Durer sat idly
visualizing the details of an
imaginary picture and then rea-
lized he had daydreamed some-
thing unusual • , . "an enormous
waterspout in the sky," as he
said, "which came down and met
the trees."
He jotted it down in a water-
colour but was still so impressed
that he added the words, "May
God help us!" It is all there in
detail, the explosion of the first
atom -bomb at Hiroshima, seen
from a hilltop outside the town.
But the atom -bomb did not fall,
as we all know, until 1945. . .
420 years after Durer's strange
vision.
Can wt put it down to coinci-
dence? Could he have foreseen
the atom -bomb by pure chance
One summer day in 1883 a
Bost on newspaper reporter
named Soames chanced to hear
that earth tremors had been de-
tected from the Indian Ocean.
Unashamedly, he dreamed up a
fantastic tale of a great volcanic
eruption on the island of Kra-
katoa and sold it to the news-
papers, claiming secret sources
of information.
Half the island had been blown
away, he reported, with a terri-
ble toll of thousands of lives.
Coastal villages had been de-
stroyed by tidal waves. Villagers
inland had been killed by rocks
falling from high in the air,
When the report was published
and no confirmation came, edi-
tors suspected a hoax. It was a
month before the news leaked
through of the terrible eruption
on Krakatoa, occurring much as
Soames had told it, How had he
so accurately daydreamed a dis-
aster occurring many thousands
of miles away?
There is evidence that day-
dreams materialize for ordinary
people as well as for authors,
artists and others known to be
gifted with vivid imagination.
Air Marshal Sir Victor Goddard
has told how he was at a cock-
tail party when he heard two
other guests saying, "Air Mar-
shal Sir Victor Goddard ought
to have been here, But he's dead.
Died last night in an air crash,"
Amused, Sir Victor told them
he was very much alive, Apolo-
gizing, the startled guest ex-
plained, "I must have daydream-
ed it. I thought it was true. It
was in the evening, in a snow-
storm, off the coast, a rocky
shore. , , ."
The Air Marshal was deeply
disturbed, for he was making
such an air journey He had no
logical reason for cancelling the
trip, He went on his way — and
it all happened as foretold; the
evening flight, the snowstorm,
the crash on a rocky shore. For-
tunately, the passengers escaped
unscathed,
The scientists believe that. the
reverie, the random wandering
of the mind when it is off its
guard, may be closer linked than
'we imagine with the trance state
of the medium or the profound
freedom of thought, in sleep, of
the dreamer.
A classic instance was staged
some years ago when, in a light
trance, the medium Mrs. Os-
borne Leonard tried to foresee
the first page of to -morrow's
newspaper. Neither the editor
nor the compositor could tell
what text would appear in the
various columns of that edition.
Mrs. Leonard found the head-
lines blurred. She could not, it
seems, eleariy foresee to -mor-
row's news. But she was able to
give the approximate positions
on the page of twelve names and
place names. All but two proved
correct.
On the isle of Mauritius there
was once a lighthouse keeper
who could foretell the arrival of
a ship up to three days before
she appeared over the horizon.
It is recorded that he presaw
the arrival of 575 vessels, often
from as far as 600 miles away.
The keeper, named Bottineau,
declared that he could register
their corning if he cleared his
mind of all other thoughts.
Then there is the amazing ex-
ample of how, on the night be•
fore the great Tokyo earthquake
of 1923, the howling of dogs in
the city was so widespread and
persistent that many people
were convinced it was a portent.
Minutes before the Quetta
earthquake dogs pulled their
owners from their beds, acting
with such persistence that house-
holders got up to see what was
wrong and thus saver] their lives.
Have dogs a natural knowledge
of the future, a sixth sense of
coming events, that man has for-
gotten to develop? Can we all -
foresee the future in those mus-
ing moments when we let our
imaginations run riot? Watch
those daydreams — and then
watch events.

It was in 1934 that James Law-
rence Fahey, a Canadian, living
at Jasper, a town in Alberta at
the foot of the Rocky Mountains,
succumbed to temptation while
on holiday, He trapped a silver
fox nut of season - presumably
by chance, but he tried to get
away with it. Perhaps he thought
it would be a nice gift for Mrs,
Fahey.
A game warden caught him in
the act and, the Canadian fur
Industry being important and
powerful, he was treated like any
common poacher and handed over
to the police.
He was, in fact, a much res-
pected man in Jasper, where he
had lived for twenty years, de-
veloping a flourishing business as
a building contractor, A small
fine accordingly, soon settled the
matter.
It seems very doubtful if he
gave any thought to the possible

In a collection of prints running
into millions.
The result astonished even the
hard-boiled officials of the FJB.I,
For Mr. Fahey's prints had been
on record in the United States
longbefore the F.B,I, came into
existence,
The trial went backtwenty-five
years, In May, 1909 the eastbound
Overland Mail of the Union Paci-
fic Railroad was held up and
robbed, The robbers, a gang of
five did not get away with much
money, but the Overland Mail
was a crack train, and the out-
rage caused a sensation.
Before the creation of the F.B.I.
there was no national police sys-
tem in the country, and the State
forces varied greatly in effi-
ciency; the railway company
therefore called in Pinkerton's
Detective Agency, then at the
height of its fame.
Within a few months Pinker -
ton's operatives, working with
sheriffs and other law officers, ran
down all five members of the
gang in three different states -
Nebraska, Colorado and Idaho.
In September, 1909, all five
were sentenced at the. Omaha
District Court to life imprison-
ment in the huge penitentiary at
Fort Leavenworth, Kansas„
In April, 1910, the entire gang
broke out of prison. Their meth-
od will probably remain unique.
Seizing a small locomotive used
within the walls of Leavenworth,
they drove it through a pair of
steel gates and then for six miles
across country.
Soon after they were forced
to abandon it, four of the fugi-
tives were recaptured. The fifth,
a man named Fred Grigware,
got away,
And now, a quarter of a cen-
tury later, the fingerprints of the
respectable Mr, Fahey, of Jasper,
Alberta, were identified as those
of the missing Fred Grigware.
At the request of the United
States authorities, Fahey was
taken into custody, to the aston-
ishment and dismay of all in
Jasper.
Fahey, or Grigware, it was
pointed out, had led a exemplary'
life as a Canadian citizen for
twenty years. He had done much
good in Jasper. He had a Cana-
dian wife and three children who
had never heard of the Overland
Mail. It was surely a case for
letting bygones be bygones.
It is pleasant to record that the
United States Attorney -General
agreed with this view. He felt
that "no good purpose would be
served" by' raking up so old a
story, and extradition proceedings
were dropped. Mr. Fahey was left
in peace with his family.
Rats Trap Rat
All the capital cities of the
world have an underworld. be-
neath the streets there is an-
other city, a network of tunnels,
avenues and by -ways, forming
the sewers.
The sewers do not often come
into the news, but some time
ago an old man was found
trapped in a sewer under the
main square of Catania, in Sicily,
Afraid to cross the square owing
to traffic, he went underground
-and nearly died!
In 19th century Paris the
police were loking for a
murderer who smashed the
heads of his victims with a ham-
mer and, after robbing them,
cut up their bodies
When his house was raided
there was no sign of him, but
there was an open trap-door in
-the basement. The gendarmes
went down, and found them-
selves in the vast sewer system
of Paris.
In the distance was the sound
of squeaky.tiproar, where squad-
rons of huge rats, disturbed by
the murderer, voiced their pro-
test. By following this noise the
police ran their quarry down.

TIIEFARN FRONT
J
Of interest to tomato growers
and home' gardeners across
Canada, is the recent announce-
ment that several new tomato
verities developed at the Ex-
perimental Farm, Summerland,
B.C., are being released for limit-
ed trial in 1959.
• * -
These varieties are the first
introductions resulting from an
extensive tomato breeding pro-
gram Initiated at Summerland in
1953, as a co-operative project
in which Mr. L, G. Denby has
directed the breeding work and
Mr. G. E. Woolliams has con-
ducted the disease screening
work.
• • •
. Through their combined efforts,
these new tomato verities have
th unique characteristic of being
the first tomatoes developed in
Canadia which are completely
resistant to existing strains of
Verticillium wilt.
* • •
In a recent interview, Mr.
Denby stated that the new vari-
eties have evidenced considerable
promise under Okanagan condi-
tions. Bred primarily for Verti-
cillium resistance, earliness, and
fine fruit quality, the plants are
of the self -pruning or bush type,
and are not designed for stak-
ing. In recent trials at Summer -
land, they successfully met every
expectation; however, Mr. Denby
hastened to point out that this
is no reason to expect that they
will prove to be outstanding un-
der very different climatic and
soil conditions in other parts of
Canada.
« * *
Several acres of the new intro-
ductions will be planted commer-
cially in 1959, and grower re-
action will determine the steps
to be taken in the final selection
before the varieties are named.

Major changes in Record of
Performance for purebred swine
to make the tests more useful
have been announced by officials
of the •Canada Department of
Agriculture.
Headlining the changes is the
removal of qualifying standards
tot' sows and boars, • which were
based on carcass desirability only,
Reducing the emphasis on carcass
score should result in more at-
tention to the economically -
important factors of feed utiliza-
tion and age for weight.
• • •
The term "qualified for ad-
vanced registry" will be discon•
tinned. In its place, an average
will be provided for each sta-
tion or province for: (1) Age for
weight; (2) Carcass score; and
(3) Feed utilization.
Deciding the merits of a
breeding pig will be left to the
judgment of the individual far-
mer or breeder. The department
will limit its part to providing
the facts brought out by the tests,
Changes in the system of car-
cass scoring are designed to place
still greater emhpasis, on desir-
able leanness, To do this, cer-
tain factors, such as type and
balance, will be dropped and
points for area of loin and lots
back fat will be increased,
•
• •
In a move to get a more direct
representation of breeders on its
advisory board, the department
is asking each test station com-
mittee to appoint a breeder rep-
resentative to' the board. It will
also include representatives of
national breeder agaations.
The change's -,l'e pplied to
aninials tested, it koups far-
rowed after Jan, year.
•
Up to 110,000,000 pounds of
Canadian dry skimmed milk will
be used this year. D. B, Good-
willie, dairy merchandising ex-
pert, has predicted.
He told the Canadian Milk
Powder Manufacturers' Associa-
tion in Toronto t hat 100,000,00
pounds were used in 1958 - or
ten per cent more than ever be=
fore,
At the same time, stocks at
the first of this year were the
highest on record.
• • *
He noted that 1958 production
was a record 186,000,000 pounds,
four times greater than just seven
years ago, due to the growth of
whole milk creameries, price, and
increased milk production.
• • •
Because of new plants and
capacity or over capacity opera-
tions, quality last year was the
poorest since 1951.
However, experts of almost
50,000,000 pounds were highest
on record. World prices today
are from eight to 10 cents -
somewhat higher than a year ago.
« « *
The Agricultural Stabilization
Board bought about 100,000„000
pounds of powdered milk in 1958,
about 75 per cent beng spray
process. All of it came from On-
tario and Quebec. The Board is
still being offered several cars a
week, but purchases are current-
ly running about half a year ago
at this time. •
Careful Of .Those
Hitch -Hikers!
There are still vast areas of
America and seasons of the year
in still others where one does
not pass up a roadside figure
gesturing his request to be
picked up by the oncoming mo-
torist, His is just as likely to be
a real need as simply a money-
saving hope.
And there are innocent
"thumbers" too: the soldier or
sailor or the college boy headed
home for a brief "liberty" or a
week -end holiday from classes.
But the very definitely non -
innocent have been spoiling it
for the innocent. And more and
more the motorist is having to
consider the risks - to balance
them against his natural im-
pulse .to be generous, perhaps
his desire for company if on s
long drive alone.
For, says th'e. American Auto-
mobile Association, "two out of
five thumbs raised to beg a
ride have their prints on filo
with the police." And it has
gone on record nationally to
outlaw the practice. Further-
more, the AAA warns, in many
states a hitchhiker becomes le-
gally a guest rider who can sue
his host for damages should he
be injured in an accident.
"Thumbing" is already illegal
in 22 states; it is against mili-
tary regi. ations for servicemen,
and it is forbidden on a number
of turnpikes.
Here is another instance where
burgeoning populations and the
greater mobility of people makes
it likely that those one encoun-
ters a r e strangers - unless
proved otherwise. It doesn't
mean that helpfulness and
neighborliness must disappear.
It does mean that, more and
more, they must be partners to
discretion - An Editorial in
The Christian Science Monitor
"Well, how did you like my
speech?" asked the after -lunch
orator. "The end was really
good, wasn't it?"
"Oh, yes, very good; but it
came too late,"
1NMY stho�i
LESSON
By Rev It 8 Warren, B.A., i3,D.
Forgiveness Through the Cross
Luke 23: 18-49
Memory Selection: Father, for-
give them; for they know not
what they do. Luke 23:34.
Of the seven sayings of Jesus
on the cross, the first two are
words of forgiveness. For those
who crucified Him, He prayed.
"Father, forgive them: for they
know not what they do." To the
plea of the penitent thief who
just a little time before had railed
on him, He said, "Today thou
shalt be with me in paradise.
In New Zealand while the
Lord's Supper was being cele-
brated, a native arose and return-
ed to his seat, but later knelt
again. He said, "When I went to
the table I did not know whom
1 would have to kneel beside,
when suddenly I saw by my side
the man who, a few years before,
slew my father and drank his
blood, and whom I then devoted
to death.
"Imagine what I felt when 1
suddenly found him by my side.
A rush of feeling came over me
that I could not endure, and I
went back to my seat. But when
I got there I saw the upper
sanctuary and the Great Supper,
and I thought I heard a voice say-
ing, 'By this shall men know that
ye are my disciples, if ye love one
another.' That overpowered me. I
at once seemed to see another
vision of a cross with a man nail-
ed to it, and' I heard Him say:
'Father forgive them for they
know not what they do.' Then I
returned to the altar."
Jesus said, "If ye forgive not
men their trespasses, neither will
your Father forgive your tres-
passes," Matthew 6:15. Yet how
many there are in this so-called
Christian land who do not for-
give. It may be within the im-
mediate family or the larger
family of the community. This
one thing is clear: in the heart
where there is not a complete
forgiveness toward all, there is
not forgiveness from God. No
church ordinance or any degree
of works in the church will bring
God's forgiveness until we are
ready, by the grace of God, to
forgive everyone.
When God's love fills us, it
overflows through us to our fel-
low men.
"0 love of. God, how rich
and pure,
How measureless and strong;
It shall forevermore endure,
The saints' and angels' song."
A diamond Is one of the hard-
est substances known to man,
and particularly hard to get
back.

ANNE I4IPST
•40,0, Faniilh,
"Dear Anne Hirst: When we
married six years ago my wife
insisted we live with her mo-
ther, and I was so in love I fell
for it. I have not had a real mar-
riage, and I am sick of it. My wife
took her mother everywhere, and
they entertained their friends in
our house, but I have to take my
pals to restaurants; they have
never been invited to have dinner
with us.
"I got disgusted, and left, Then
my wife promised me a home of
our own, and a family. We moved
into a furnished apartment —
where she continued to invite
her mother and their friends, but
again not mine. We have no chil-
dren, and you will understand
that I am glad of that.
"Again I left, and this time I
said it was for good. But last
week I met my wife accidentally,
and she admitted that she missed
me ... I just had an offer of a
position in another city, and this
time I put my foot down. I told
her if she would go with me we
could try once more — otherwise
I was through.
"Even if she agrees, I am half
afraid to trust her. I think she
will always be her mother's little
girl. BILL"
You are taking a chance, yes.
But if you still love your wife,
I think it is worth the risk; if
* it works out, you will have
• your reward. You two can
* build a good life together
• among new friends and sur-
• soundings, away from her mo-
• ther's influence.
' If your wife refuses to leave
• with you or is not contented
• there, you will know there is
' no happiness for either of you
• and you will be better off
• without her.
• If she does consent, be sure to
• devote your leisure hours to
• her in your new home, intro-
• ducing her to your friends and
• seeing that she is too well
• occupied to miss her mother.
• It will take time, but you are
•
• a patient man,
JILTED
"Dear Anne Hirst: I just don't
want to live! I am still crazy
about a man I dated for seven
months. I don't know why I can't
get over him, because he made
me care for him and left me flat.
"I've tried dating others, but I
cannot forget him. Sometimes I'd
just like to run off — where, I
don't know ... I guess my family
think I'm a problem and I expect
)< am. But what can I do about it?

• that no man makes a girl love
* him. She is attracted, he is at-
* tentive, so with nothing more
• than that to go on she builds
• all her hopes on him, only to
* find out that one day he isn't
• there.
• It does not matter why the
* lad changed his mind. You may
• have been too easily won (or
• too possessive) or maybe an-
* other pretty face tempted him
• more. Obviously, he is not
• worth the affection you still
• waste on his memory. Why not
* charge it off to experience and
• next time be more selective,
* less hasty to give your heart
• away?
In these circumstances, your
• best cure is an active social life.
* Cultivate other interests that
• demand concentration or en-
• thusiasin, and you will have
* less time to feel sorry for your-
* self. What a chance to show
• your family you can take the
• blow like a lady!
• Have faith in yourself and
* your future, and you'll come
• out all tight.
A separation is often the' ans-
wer to an unhappy marriage. If
you are given a second chance,
take it with hope and a new
loyalty ... Anne Hirst's opinion
will guide you wisely. Write her

It is said that the training of
French detectives begins with a
course of reading. Selected
works include Gaboriau's detec-
tive books, and also Sherlock
Holmes stories,
Police departments all over

famous criminologists and detec-
tives for the professional educe.
tion of officers, as distinct from
the other works of reference
which are records of criminals
and their methods.
These files are housed in the
Criminal Record Office of Scot-
land Yard, the Berlin Kriminal
Archiv, and the crime dossiers
of the Paris S trete. These are
simply Paris libraries contain-
ing the biographies of men of
note — generally false note!
There is another standard re-
ference. It was compiled follow-
ing a private meeting of traders
who had lost a lot of money
through people who never paid
their bills. The traders made a
list of these "doubtful custom-
ers" in self-protection.
Crooks have their own refer-
ence books. Barthelemy Warzee,
the Robin Hood of France, rob-
bed mail trains and gave some
of the proceeds to charity. He
had a book on astrology and re-
gularly 'consulted his horoscope
before doing a job. When the
police caught him he said he
knew he would be arrested —
his horoscope had warned him.
He appeared before his com-
manding officer charged with
using insulting language to a
sergeant.
"Please, sir," he protested. "I
was only answering a question."
"What question?" snapped the
officer.
"Well, sir, the sergeant said
'Who do you think I am?' and I
told him."

Most people will remember the
winter of 1958-59 and the thaw
that followed the big snow. Frozen
culverts, flooded roads and base-
ments are the order of the day.
But even they are minor troubles
compared with the tragic loss of
life caused by collapsed roofs at
Huntsville and Listowel. It seems
almost impossible that such acci-
dents could happen without
warning. And yet when you con-
sider the weight of snow on many
roof -tops has been estimated at
seventy-two pounds to the square
foot it is understandable, Multi-
ply seventy-two by the square -
foot area of any roof and you
have a terrific lot of snow.
Fortunately most of the snow
in this district has been on the
ground — and we are inclined
to think we have more than our
share piled up on this one acre
of land. Partner has a regular
network of little ditches and
canals at the back of the house
— plus a sort of catch -basin
where he can leave the water to
fill up while he works on the
ditches. But still the ditches over-
flow as the water seeks ways and
means to find its own level, The
only one who is happy — and
dirty — is Taffy. He spends half
his time paddling up and down
the ditches, catching water with
his mouth anywhere it happens
to gurgle over little piles of fro-
zen snow.
One day last week it looked
like a good day to go shopping.
so I went to Cooksville In the
morning and Applewood in the
afternoon, But alas, I hadn't
realized how fast it could thaw
once it got started. Along the
service road I ran into floods
every so often and there was no
way of telling how deep the
water was until I was in the
middle of it.i Fortunately the car
did not stall and I found a way
of getting home that was mostly
along the highway. I was wish-
ing 1 had wings to keep me
away from the water like the
crows that are now flying around
in increasing numbers. As for
March 1. I wouldn't say it came
in either like a lion or a lamb.
I would say it was more like a
seal. But at any rate it's March
. only a few more weeks and
it will be June, with Easter and
Whitsuntide sandwiched in be-
tween. Can you believe it? Just
imagine some day all this ice,
-now and water will have dis-
appeared. Maybe there might
even be water in some of the dry
wells. But that I wouldn't bank
on, The frozen ground prevents
the excess moisture seeping into
the ground, and thus to the wells
the way it should. In some homes
it is "water, water everywhere
and not a drop to drink,"
Of course there has been more
than weather to worry about
this week, The partial shut -down
at Avro still has people worried
— and promises to make a good
political football. What will be
the final outcome it is hard to
say. Some of the men around
here have already got other
jobs. One or two are talking about
returning to England, others are
going to the United States. And
are the doctors ever busy. In our
family, Ross managed to choke
on a toy metal bell. It was touch
and go for a little while. He was
blue in the face when Joy and
Bob rushed him to the local hos-
pital. By the time they got there
he had managed to swallow the
bell. X-ray pictures revealed its
whereabouts and it eventually
passed through him. .His throat
was raw and bleeding but apart
from that he apparently suffered
no ill affects.
In Dee's family, Art Is in bed
with the flu; Jerry is still up to
his eyes in mischief. One day he
pulled the pop-up toaster on the
floor, breaking the mica and one
element. And they are having
dog troubles too. It would seem
their back yard is a rendezvous
for all the dogs in the neighbour-
hood, although their own little
dog is kept in the house. One
morning there were no less than
ten in the yard at one time, all
the way from toy terriers to
German shepherds. Dee phoned
the police and the Humane Socie-
ty with little result.
One of the cheeriest people
around here is our egg -man -- a
Dutchman. He comes every Fri-
day night. At least he drives the
car and a little boy delivers the
eggs. Last Friday the father came
to the house himself with the
eggs. "My little boy — he's sick
with flu; other boy, he fell at
school and broke shoulder. But I
have lots of boys. One sick or
gets hurt, others work. One,
two, three, four boys. Lots of boys
• .. I'm lucky." Well, I don't know
any place where boys can be
more useful — and have more
fun—than on a farm. The farmer
is lucky — and so are the boys.
Have You Ever Seen
A "Blue Moon?"
All over the world the moon
has become one of the biggest
news stories of our times. And
every day scientists aro learn-
ing more about it.
In the light of present-day
knowledge, it's odd to reflect
that the Greek philosopher Aris-
totle believed that the moon was
u perfectly smooth and round
body and that Its markings were
the continents of the world re-
flected as in a mirror.
Now we know that there are
craters on the moon probably
caused by meteoric bombard•
ment, that the mass of the moon
is about one-eighth that of the
earth and that its diameter is
a quarter that of the earth. .
A• startling theory that the
moon will one day collide with
the earth was advanced by Pru-
fessor Hoerbigar, but he has-
tened to explain that this won't
happen for a few million years,
although every year the m000n
moves nearer the earth
A day on the moon is equal
to about fourteen days on
earth — that means about a
2,000 -hour working week! There
is no rain or cloud on the moon
and when men ultimately reach
the moon they will gaze up at
a sky which appears black, A
man could jump six times higher
on the moon than on earth.
Sometimes we say "Once in
a blue moon." Has there ev' r
been a blue • moon? Yes. It was
reen during the 1902 eclipse.
The moon's surface, though cut
off from sunlight by the passing
of the earth shadow, reflected
light from the earth's atmos-
phere and was noticeably blue.
Some courting couples marry
when the moon is new because
they say it's a symbol of sll
happy beginnings and a sign
that they / will never quarrel.
True or false? Only new moon
honeymooners can answer that
with any certainty!
We don't yet know whether
the moon has any effect on the
weather, although many people
still believe that a halo round
the moon indicates rain and that
the bigger the circle the nearer
the moisture.
Weather men say that the old
saying "There's always a change
after the new m o o n" is not
borne out by weather records.
Astronomers calculate today
that the temperature of the
moon may be as high as 214
deg. Fahrenheit by day and as
;ow as minus 243 deg. Fahren-
heit by night. Some believe it
possible that the surface of the
moon might be continually
changing with these extremes
al temperature.
"Do you mean to tell me that
you have lived here for ten
years and can't tell me the
quickest way to the station?"

that time, sir,"

Some Parties Can
Be Expensive
"Tomorrow your beautiful
bride awaits you!" Cheers greet-
ed this hilarious cry as hand-
some Gunar, a 29 - year - old
Swede, reeled against none -too -
steady party guest,
The cheers grew increasingly
boisterous, for the stag party,
having begun in the afternoon,
was still going strong at mid-
night and everyone present was
well lit up,
Finally, two family retainers,
as previously briefed, took hold
of the tipsy guests, stripped off
their outer clothes, and plunged
them one by one into the icy
water of a lake adjoining the
restaurant,
What a hangover tormented
Gunar on his wedding morning!
Watched with dismay by his
radiant bride, 22 -year-old honey
blonde Ulla, he staggered up the
aisle, white - faced and desper-
ately groggy. As the music
pealed forth and sunshine flood.
ed through richly stained glass
windows, the church seemed to
spin around him.
Clutching his throbbing head,
In a last vain effort to retain
self-control, he blurted out, "I
must getout of ;here!" Amid
murmurs of consternation, he
left his shocked young bride on
the verge of tears,
He ran out of the church,
staggered into a taxi, and fled
to his hotel. There he collapsed
into bed,
Ulla was heartbroken. No
word of explanation came to her
until twenty-four hours later,
when Gunar 'phoned, saying that
he'd blacked out because of his
stag party hangover,
"Well, if that's your behaviour
should have been the
''t day of our lives, you
c'r"`Aay away frum me for
good!" she spat out, and slalo-
med down the receiver.
How often does the unexpect•
ed materialize at a party ! What
begins in gaiety ends with fear-
ful shock or, maybe, with un-
expected thrills and romance,
In a Colorado nightclub re•
cently, 25 -year-old Canadian
Lester Johnston sat swilling
champagne, feeling like a mil-
lion dollars, when a firm hand
fell on his shoulder. This ar-
rest by American detectives act-
ing on a warrant from the Moun-
ties, ended a sixteen -day revel.
He was charged with having
embezzled $300,000 from an Ot-
tawa bank. They found $210,000
in bills in his hotel room; and
besides financing his drinking
spree, he'd bought himself an
expensive car.
"Well, that's it, boys, I guess,"
grinned Johnston, ruefully. "1
always ,wondered what it would
be like to have money, Now 1
know !"
Much sharper tension ,intrud-
ed at a party held in Melbourne
a few weeks ago, when an ex-
asperated 27 -year-old butcher
named Mike suddenly stopped
everyone's fun by whipping out
a revolver.
"Get up against the wall there,
all of you — and -quick !" he
rasped. As he brandished his
gun, the party obeyed with
some speed. "Now give me back
my bottle of beer; one of you
has stolen it !" he snapped.
Mike was •solely,.. concerned
with satisfying his suspicions
that someone had pinched his
bottle of beer; this was his way
of finding out. But one fellow -
guest greatly disliked such
tough guy tactics.
While Mike ' was marshalling
his suspects, the guest slipped
away and 'phoned the police.
They soon arrived and, after a
scuffle, disarmed the gunman
and put him in a cell. Appearing
In court, he was fined $75, and
had his revolver confiscated,

Saved Killer
From Gallcas
No mystery is really a mystery.
There must always be someone
who knows the truth, If a crime
remains unsolved it is because
there are those in the secret who
will not speak.
Such conspiracies of silence are
to be expected in the criminal
underworld, but they have oc-
curred, even in cases of murder,
among people who are apparent-
ly good citizens. The mystery
here is why these people acted
as they did,
• It is said that the secret of the
Appin murder of 1752, a classic
of this kind, has been handed
down in Argyllshire from genera-
tion to generation to the present
time.
Clannishness is not peculiar to
the Scottish Highlands; it may be
paralleled to -day . in some quiet
English countryside. The same
secrecy which clamped down on
the shooting of Campbell of -
Glenure 200 years ago enshrouds
the murder of Edward Welham in
1931.
We need not believe that
Welham's Dorset neighbours
would have gone so far as the
Highlanders whose ideas of clan
loyalty sent an innocent man to
the gallows; but the determined
silence of these rural folk was
to baffle Scotland Yard,
.First manager and trainer of
the Cloverdale Kennnis, at Tar-
rant Keynston, in i 3rset, was
William Steer. When, within a
few months Steer was found shot
near a badger hole, his gun by
his side, the fatality was accept-
ed as accidental. His successor
was Edward George Welham, a
young unmarried man.
Welham lodged in the village
with the family of his kennel -
maid, Mary Hathaway, She work-
ed only in the afternoons; as full-
time assistant Welham employed
a young man, Frederick Deamen,
The kennels consists 1 of a long
army hut, divided in the middle
by partitions which formed a
small office, Here Welham kept
his guns, a 16 -bore and a 12 -bore,
in a cupboard by his desk.
On the morning of October lst,
1931, he was as usual at the
kennels before breakfast. He re-
turned to the Hathaway's house
for this meal at eight o'clock.
When he went back to the hut
DOWN BUT NOT OUT — Probably recalling the no -hit games
of 1952 and 1956 when they were battery -mates, Roy Cam-
panella sits in his wheelchair and watches pitcher Carl Erskine
warm up at the Dodgers spring training' camp. Campanella is
now a special coach with the team.
he missed a blind spaniel, to
which he was much attached, and
Deamen was sent to look for the
dog.
This was just before ten o'clock
Deamen, by his own account, was
only some 120 yards from the hut
when he heard a shot, but
thought nothing of it.
It took him some time to find
the spaniel When he returned to
the hut, Welham was lying in a
pool of blood on the floor of the
office, his own 16 -bore gun be-
neath him,
Deamen ran • to the village,
Thomas Hathaway, the kennel -
maid's father, went back with
him to the hut. The girl herself
followed with her brother, and
after them came the police con-
stable stationed at Tarrant Keyn-
ston,
Welham was still alive; he was
taken to the hospital at Blandford
where he died the next morning.
He had been shot in the back,
apparently while standing at his
desk, The 16 -bore had been fired.
The policeman's first impres-
sion was that it was a case of
suicide. He looked about for
means by which Welham could
have reached the trigger of the
gun while holding the nuzzle to
the back of his neck,
He expected, he said, to find a
stick or a string, There was no
string, but a long stick of hazel
was leaning against .some sacks
near the office door.
It was Mary Hathaway who
pointed out that Welham's jacket
was unbuttoned and that his wal-
let was sticking half out of the
inside pocket. There was a pound
note in it, Welham, should have
been carrying about £10.
The medical report, with that
of the policeman, convinced the
Chief Constable of Dorset that he
had a case of murder on his
hands, Scotland Yard were called
in and Superintendent Hambrook
of the C,I,D, arrived at Tarrant
Keynston,
Experiments with the 1G -bore
proved that Welham had been
shot from a distance of about
twelve feet, The door of the office
was thirteen feet ,from his desk.
He was shot, in Hambrook'S
words, "by some person who
stood in the doorway and thrust
the muzzle of the gun through
the opening."
The gun, in the superinten-
dent's opinion, was taken from its
cupboard while Welham was
away at breakfast. The murderer
then waited near the hut — there
was plenty of cover handy — un-
til Deamen left to find the span-
iel.
If the motive of the crime was
gain, the murderer in his haste
missed £9 in the desk. But was
gain the motive?
Hambrook began to have other
ideas, which were strengthened,
by the behaviour of Welham's
neighbours, The young man ap-
peared to have been well liked,
but the folk of Tarrant Keynston
had heard nothing, seen nothing,
and knew nothing,
They ignored the evidence of
murder; it was obviously suicide,
they said,
At Supt. Hambrook's request
the rector of Tarrant Keynston
took the unusual step of asking
his parishioners from the pulpit
to help the police — in other
words, not to obstruct them, The
appeal appeared to have no ef-
fect.
With the case in this unsatis-
factory state, Hambrook returned
to London to report. He had bare-
ly got there when Thomas Hatha-,
way made a confession. He had
tampered with evidence. His first
thought( on reaching the hut
with Deamen, was that Welham
had shot himself by accident..
Then he saw a cord trailing from
the hazel stick towards the gun.
To spare Welham's mother the
pain of knowing that her son had
committed suicide, he slipped the
cord from the stick.
He had kept it, and the stick
was still in the office, The super-
intendent hastened back to Tar-
rant Keynston; hut further ex-
periments showed that no ar-
rangement of cord and stick could
have fired the gun as it must have
been fired.
Here, then, appeared to be
proof of premeditation, But why,
having staged a suicide, did the
murderer defeat his aim by tam-
pering so carelessly with the wal-
let? Did he panic? Or was there
no theft? Was Welham, perhaps,
taking out the wallet when he
was shot?
These and.other features of the
• case remain riddles because the
main question is still unanswered.
Who fired the shot? "I think I
know," Hambrook said, but evi-
dence to justify a charge was
denied him by the locals' silence.
The case, therefore, is still
open. It may be that Dorset folk
are less secretive than High-
landers and that fifty years
hence, when all concerned, in-
cluding the murderer, are dead,
someone will tell the story, hand-
ed down, of who killed Edward
Welham, and why; and Scotland
Yard can then close the file,

STABBED FOR STOLEN KISS
While Mrs. Rittel, of Phoenix,
was peeling potatoes in her kit-
chen her husband crept up from
behind and kissed her on the
back of the neck. .
She turned in surprise, and the
potato knife struck her husband
on the chhek, inflicting a nasty
gash. The playful interlude ended
with Mr. Rittel having six stitches
in his cheek at a local hospital.
