Jackson, presented a Cantata "The Glory of the Cross" on Sunday morning. The Cantata based on familiar Hymns of the Cross was an inspiration and a challenge to all those who worship- ped in the Easter congregation, The music was beautifully sung and all sections of the choir blended their voices to give expression to the Easter messace. Solo parts were taken by Mrs. G. Elliott, Mrs, L. Wightman, Mrs. R, Vincent, Mrs. 11, Campbell and Mr, J. Uawrie. Rev. R. E. Mc - 1)i an read arrnropriate passages of scripture. Traditional Easter Lillies, rresented by the W.A. and flanked by ferns nresee e. d by the Friendship Cir- cle, added to the beauty of the sanct- eery. Menters of the Communicant's Class received into the full member- ehip of the Church at this Easter Ser- vice were:_Misses Cheryl Madill, Anri Howson and Sylvia Sanderson, and Messrs, Glen Grant, Charlie Knox, Ernie McVittie and Donald Elliott. In his Easter message Mr. McLagan challenged all to join the true Easter Parade which began at. the empty tomb and the woad to Emmaus and reached down through the centuries to this very day. He termed it "not a parade on a board walk but on a dus- ty pathway; a parade from lonliness to fellowship, from loss to gain, from defeat to victory; a parade from des- pair to hope, from cowardice to count are, from weakness to strength." "It was a parade," he said "beginning with faltering steps and blind iron- ing but ending in a confident stride and 'sure faith. ' It Is the parade of all those who sins; "Christ is Risen" and who show by their deeds that Christ is living in them." The minister challenged his audience to give an exemnie of Christian faith and Christ- ian living to those who that morning hid joined the pargr.'e of Chriktinns through history. He ctt?lested that enrh one ask himself "What kind of church members will they lie in 10 yenrrc if they take their example from me?" • CONGRATULATIONS Congratulations to Patsy Dougherty who celebrated her 8th birthday on Sunday, March 29th, Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs, Jim Scott, Sr., who will celebrate their 30th wedding anniverasry on Friday, April 3rd.

Quote "I am authorized to say on behalf of Honourable M. B. Dymond, M.D., Minister of Health, that there is no change in the thinking on the part of the department with respect to the size of the proposed Mental Institution to be built three miles south of Gode- rich, on Lake Huron. The only change is the result of new trends and con- cepts affecting the mental institution to the extent that it might be multi- purpose in character. Further, I am authorized to say, that construction of certain of the service building Le. Power Plant and so forth will be undertaken at the earliest date pos- I sihle in the summer of 1959, The value of the Institution to Goderich I and the entire Huron community will he in no wny impaired by any of the "hinges referred to above.

No; 4, Hullett, Weekly Farm Report (By J. Carl Hemingway) Hogs have hit the headlines again. Two interesting announcements by the '''e•Ifeal Minister of Agriculture re- cently are most interesting. First Mr, Harkness is reported to ''lave announced that the Floor price 'or hogs will continue for six months t $21.00 in Ontario and then be re- lined to $23.00. I don't know how much the producers are concerned with this support price tut the thing inat intrigues me is the fact that the 'tog producers have received six months notice of the price reduction. t year ago the support price on fowl '-isappearcd over night without any eadlincs and the poultry producer tad no warning to get out from under. • have no objection to the Govern- ments warning in case of hoes, in yet I think it is only reasonable that 'reducers should receive some warn- ing but, I really think that the hog .producers can thank the strength of their organization for this coesi,iera- tion. Also this -should indicate to the poultry producers the need fur an equally strong Producer's Organiza- tion. Second, the Federal Minister has been reported to have announced that the hog price will be supported on a dificiency basis to the farmer only. That is, the price will find its own level on the open market and the go- vernment will then make up the dif- ference. between -that price and the support price. The important point is that this will be paid only to in- denendent farmers, and will not be maid to companies operating on a ver- tically integrated basis. This has been heartily approved by western farmers where vertical integration is threaten- ing to take over the hog industry, just as it has the broiler industry in On- tario, Since we in Ontario are fortunate in having 'a producer controlled mar - keine method, we are not greatly con- cerned with this integration problems We should, however, realize that great- ly increased production in the eves - could undermine our market, especially WEDDINGS OSTER-RIEHL A quiet wedding was solemnized in the Myth Umlea Church on Satur- day, March 28, 1959, when Dorothy Elaine Riehl, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Riehl, was united in marriage to George Franklin Oster, son of Mr,' and Mrs, Walter Oster, of Blyth. The Rev. R, E. McLagan of- ficiated. The bride wore a floor -length strap-' less gown of white nylon net and lace with lily point sleeves and a lace bolero. Her shoulder -length veil of silk illusion was held in place with a half -hat trimmed with pearls and she carried a bouquet of red roses. • Miss Frieda Riehl, sister of the bride, was bridesmaid, and wore a ballerina -length dress of white nylon net over buttercup yellow taffeta fa- shioned with a wide sash and bow of matching chrystalette and she car- red a bouquet of mauve mums. Mr. Jim Foster, of Blyth, was best man, Following the ceremony a wedding dinner was served at the home of the groom's parents. The bride's moth- er received the guests wearing a navy blue crepe dress with corsage of white carnations, assisted by the groom's mother, wearing a navy and white taffeta dress with a corsage of white carnations, For the wedding trip to Sarnia and the United States the bride wore a powder blue suit with white and black accessories. On their return the couple will take up residence in Blyth. Out of town guests were from Lop don and Piston, Mission Band Meeting The MIssion Band of Loving Service met in the Blyth United Church schoolroom on Thursday, March 26, for their Easter Thank -offering meet- ing.

Telephone System Annual Meeting, Much Progress Made In 1958 The annual meeting of the subscrib- ers of the Blyth Municipal Telephone System was held in the Community Hall on Saturday, March 28th, at 2:15 o'clock. A very small crowd was in attendance. The minutes of the last annual meet- ing were read and passed on motion by Mr, S. Haliahan and Mr. J. Buchanan, The auditor's report for 1958 was presented to the meeting by Commis- sioner Phelan, Mr. John Young mov- ed the adoption of the report, seconded by Mr. H. Gibbons. Chairman McNall addressed the meeting, and thanked the people in attendance. He remarked that the small crowd must be an indication of satisfaction, However, a great deal of responsibility is placed in the hands of the commissioners, and they would appreciate it if more people would take an interest and come to the annual meeting. Mr, McNeil stat- ed, a lot of work had been done in 1958: a new switchboard in the Blyth office, purchased from Mildmay at a cost of $2,000, part of the old Blyth board was placed in a home in Auburn to service approximately 160 telephones in the Auburn district. It is the pro- posal of the commission to put in an unattended dial system in Auburn. A new cable from Blyth to Auburn, new phones for the Auburn area, at $25.00 per telephone. Over a period of the next three years, the commission will probobly have to spend $23,000.00. He also stated the time is coming when we will have to consider dial here In the village. The plan is to build up the outside plant, .and when the time comes for conversion it will be much less costly. He informed the subscribers that the Ontario Telephone Authorities had set LTD a new boundary between Blyth and Ripley system, the Maitland River be- ing the boundary. The authorities re- quested the Blyth System take over a portion of the Dungannon phones in Auburn. They purchased 33 phones from Dungannon, at a cost of $32.50 per telephone. The Telephone Authority is drawing up a specification for the Auburn sit- uation. The presently proposed cable, 16 pr., 22 gage would cost $6,600.00. Without the Auburn office, the cable, would have had to be 26 pr. 19 guage, at a cost of $15,708.00, or 37 pr. 19 gtrage, at an estimated cost of $20,856.00, He also stated the commis- sion had applied to the telephone au- thority for a toll charge between Blyth and Dungannon, and same had been granted to become effetcive, April 1st, 1959. Mr. McNeill, in discussing the Blyth cable, advised it was now 30 years old, and the estimated life of a cable is twenty years, This cable must be replaced in the very near future. In closing, Mr. McNall thanked the commissioners, the lineman, secre- tary and the operators for the co-op- eration in the past year, Chairman McNafl called on com- missioner Phelan for comanents. 11r. Phelan felt that commissioner McNall had pretty well covered the works of the past year. He requested that if anyone had any questions to ask to please do so. In regard to a toll charge between Blyth and Dungannon, Mr, Phelan remarked, that when these lines have to be replaced, we must have revenue to do so. The Auburn situation was speeded up by the Department of Highways requesting the lines to be moved back, so a decision had to be made quickly. Mr, Phelan advised that the Ontario Telephone Authority, in Toronto, wait in the process of drawing up a plan for the re -building of the town. They furnish this service free of charge, and he felt that we should take ad- vantage of it. Mr. Phelan congrat- ulated the lineman, Mr. Young, on the excellent job he did of installing the new board in the Blyth office, also the Auburn board. He felt that he had probably saved the system his years wages by doing this work himself. Mr, Phelan concluded his speech by saying he had completed 24 years as a commissioner of the Blyth System, and that if the subscribers wished him to stay for a quarter of a century, he would leave it un to than. Commissioner Young spoke briefly, he felt the other two commissioners had pn:ty well covered the works of the year, but would add how much he had enjoyed the work. If the sub- scribers wished him to remain e commissioner for another year he would do so. Mr. McNeil called on Mr. George Michie, chairman of the Brussels Tel- ephone System, for a few words. Re- garding a toll change between Brus- sels and Blyth, Mr, Michie remarked that in order to replace these toll, lines, we would have to rely on a toll charge as revenue for same. He felt that Blyth and Brussels would tee forced Into this. In closing he thanked the Blyth System for the assistance they sent the Brussels System when they made their changeover, Chairman McNall thanked Mr, Mich- ie and Mr. Workman, the Brussels lineman, for coming to Blyth and helping with the change -over here, Mr. S. Hallahan, on behalf of the. meeting, and himself, expressed ap- preciation for the service received from the operators during the past year. Mr. McNall called for nominations for commissioners for 1959. A mo- tion was made by Mr. J. Buchanan that the same commissioners remain in office for the year 1959, seconded! by Mr. H. Gibbons. The meeting was adjourned. Easter services At The Anglican Church Very impressive services were held on Easter Sunday in the perish of Blyth, Auburn and Belgrave. At Blyth there was a celebration of the Holy Communion, the celebrant was the Rev. W. Craven, of Goderich. The choir was under the direction of Miss M. Clarke, organist of St. Mark's Anglican Church, Auburn, and our own organist, Miss A, M. Rogerson, sang a solo "Jerusalem Awake" which was very much appreciated. The Altar was beautifully decorated with Lilies by the Altar Guild. At St. Mark's, Auburn, there was a celebration of the Holy Communion. The Choir under the direction of Miss M. Clarke, rendered the anthem "He Lives." There was a large. congrega- tion. The flowers on the altar was placed by Mrs. Alfred Nesbitt and her family in memory of her husband, and the flowers in the chancel were ' placed in memory of those who dur- ing the nast months have passed to the "higher life." At Belgrave there was also a cele- bration of the Holy Communion. The choir under tate direction of Mrs. Van- nan, rendered the anthem, "He is Risen" by Van Waert which was beautifully sung, especially the solo parts, Between the three churches over one hundred people received Holy Com- munion which made it a very happy Easter to these whose priviledge it is to minister to such faithful and loyal people.

Everyone welcome, NEAR FIRE ON SUNDAY The Blyth Fire Department were cal- led to what could have been a very serious fire, on Sunday, to the home of Mrs, J. B, Stewart. Stove pipes had become over heated, causing a heavy amount of smoke 'to envelope the house, The Brigade was able to quell the blaze with a minimum of damaged Sea Captain WWI Healing Fingers The Dutch ship Pris•i Willem II was steaming at 10 knots south of Iceland when she was struck amidships by a torpedo, Three seconds later a second tor- pedo struck her, The ship split in two and sank in four minutes, Feike Vlas, first mate of the stricken freighter, found him- self struggling to keep afloat in the freezing, stormy water. Not a powerful swimmer, he saw some wreckage and strug- gled towards it and clung with half -frozen fingers to an up- turned lifeboat. Near hint he saw another seaman struggling feebly in the water and, des- pite his own danger, Vias grab- bed at the man and dragged him to the boat. The two amen, who were later joined by another, clung to tha lifeboat for twenty minutes un- til they saw a battered but up- right lifeboat drifting past Henk Diemeer and Frans Diepeveen struck out for this boat and reached it safely and, with scraps of planks taken from the sea, managed to manoeuvre it close enough for the near -dead Vlas to clutch at the low gun- wale and haul himself aboard. Daylight of April 9th, 1941, found the three Hien almost fro- zen stiff in the boat with Diepe- veen violently seasick and trying to throw himself overboard to die quickly, As Diemeer fought to prevent Diepeveen doing so, Vlas crawl- ed through the water - logged boat and reached out to help hold the sick man down. "Take it easy," Vlas urged, "we are all right now. We wili be picked up!" To help pacify the violently sick deckhand, First Mate Vlas passed his right hand over the man's brow, speaking soothing- ly to him all the time. "I cannot describe what happened," Vlas said in Canada recently. "It was like a miracle. The seaman calmed at once and almost instantly stopped detch- ing. He sat up with the water in the boat up to his waist and looked around in bewilderment." Vlas—now a captain—dld not at that time realize the curious and quite inexplicable power he held in his fingertips. All that he knew was that'somehow his act of touching the sailor's head had immediately soothed the man and stopped his retching. Next day, Diemeer, too, be- came violently sick and towards evening he was almost dement- ed. Fearing that he might jump overboard in the night to end his misery, Vlas sat with him and tried to comfort him. He reached over and wiped the sea water from the ntan't forehead. Again that inexplicable change came over the man the moment Vlas's hand brushed his brow. Diem- eer stopped retching and recov- ered considerably. Next morning the lookout man aboard the Swedish ship Klip- varen sighted the iifeboat and the three men were soon rescued. Captain Vlas, who is now fif- ty-six years old, never gave the incidents aboard the lifeboat an- other thought. He returned to zea as scion as he was well enough. It was not until 1947, when he was chief officer of a Dutch migrant ship en -route to Can- ada, that another strange inci- dent occurred. He was on the bridge when the ship's doctor casually mentioned a rather un- usual case to him. "I hope we run out of this fout weather soon," the doctor Raid. "There's a poor woman down below who has been vio- lently seasick ever since we left Rotterdam , .. hasen't kept even a teaspoonful of water down. She also has a temperature and her head feels like a ball of fire." At that moment Captain Vlas suddenly remembered the toss- ing lifeboat in 1941, He decided to go to see the woman, and as he stood next to her bunk and saw how ill she was, he leaned over and placed his right palm en her forehead, Suddenly, the woman opened her eyes and tried to sit up, A nurse hurried over with a glass of water which the woman swallowed. "I'm starving," the passenger said, "Can I have something to eat, please?" The woman was fed and the next day on deck she walked up to the first officer and began to thank hint for curing her. "The doctor cured you, Mad - ani," Vlas said. "I ant not the doctor," "Oh, 110," she said, "you cur - cd mie of my sickness, The doc- tor told me." One the very next voyage homewards several seasick pas- sengers were instructed by the ship's doctor to report to Feike Vlas and to ask hint if he would touch their foreheads with his fingertips. Even the sceptical had to be- lieve when one after another the passengers were cured al- most instantly of their seasick- ness. It was uncanny, unbeliev- able — yet each person who was violently seasick recovered with- in moments of being touched. Captain Vias has never dis- cussed his strange ability fully. "There is nothing to tell," he says. "I cannot' explain it. No one can." But this extraordinary ability does not end with seasickness, Captain Vias, who was only re- cently appointed master of the flagship of the Fjell-Oranje Lines, discovered quite by ac- cident that his magic fingers can also cure such things as tooth- ache and headache. His passengers fully appreci- ate his ability for recently, when the Prins Willem van Oranje ran into a North Atlantic gale and many were seasick, Captain Vias was so quick with his mir- aculous cures that at the end of the voyage the passengers got together and conferred on him an honour .conferred is probably unique in shipping annals. As briefly reported in the press recently, they drew up an illuminated parchment confer- ring on him a "Certificate of Passengerhood." What can account for the strange curative powers in Cap- tain Vlas's fingertips? From sci- entists there is only one reply: "We cannot explain it. It can- not be faith -healing because his passengers do not participate in the sense that they believe. He touches them, often without them even knowing about it, and cures them, There simply is no logical explanation for Cap- tain Vlas's healing fingers." A woman slipped on a sub- way escalator and started to tumble down to the bottom. Half -way down she collided with a man, knocking him down, and the two continued downwards together. After they had reached the bottom, the woman, still dazed, continued to sit on the man's chest. Looking up at her he said politely: "I'm sorry, madam, but this is as far as I go." Man's conscience does not prevent him from sinning, it merely prevents him from en- joying his sin. GLIDEOMETER — Speed -skating competitors at Squaw Valley, get together on one thing.

Jet -Age Flu Bugs Strike Hitch -Hike on Planes From Europe By JERRY BENNETT NEA Staff Correspondent Washington— Flu bugs have started to travel by jet, Public Health officials believe that many of the viruses respons- ible for influenza outbreaks ,in the U.S. and Canada this year are tiny tourist from Europe who hitched a ride in the nostrils and lungs of jet passengers, ' Influenza has been sweeping England and Wales since early February and has killed almost 1,000 persons, Russia also is re- ported hard-hit by flu, 'but the disease rate there is not'known. Other countries suffering are Sweden, France, Switzerland, Austria, Italy, the Netherlands and Bulgaria. , Travelers from Europe are be- lieved to have carried bugs that caused the recent flu outbreaks in Washington, D.C., Maryland, Virginia, Mich i g a n, Indiana, Massachussetts, New Jersey and Georgia. Those who traveled by jet probably set a transatlantic speed record for spreading a flu epidemic. For years health experts have viewed faster commercial trans- portation as a boon to viruses, Transatlantic travel by ship used to be slow enough so that passen- gers who had been exposed to the flu could develop the dis- ease and get well before reaching their destination. It takes from two to seven days for flu bugs to make a per- son sick after entering his body. Average duration of the ailment is four days. - Now, however, a person can travel across the Atlantic by ship in four, days and by plane in a few hours, Travelers can pick up a virus before leaving a foreign country and not get sick until several days after they get home. The result is that chances are in- creased for people to contract a disease that originated thousands of miles away. Luckily, the flu bug that's do - ing the damage this year Is milder than the Asian variety that swept most of the globe in 1957-58. It's the Great Lakes strain of the Type.B virus, Influenza viruses are divided into five major classifications — A, B, C. D and E. Each class has several subdivisions called strains. Asian flu was caused by a partciular strain of the Type - A virus. Asian flu Is believed respon- sible for most of the influenza bed rest is the best cure for Type -B flu, They advise patients to keep warm and call a doctor if their temperature rises much above normal, Most flu victims this year have been children under.13, The rea- son that the bug is picking on youngsters, doctors say, is that the U.S. has not had a major outbreak of Type -B flu since 1945, Kids born after that year have never been exposed to the bug, therefore have never had a chance to build up immunity to it, Public Health officials don't ex- pect flu to sweep the country be - PASSENGERS DEBARKING FROM A JET: In their lungs an un- invited hitch -hiker. in Russia and Bulgaria this year, Some cases also have been found in England along with the pre- dominate B variety. Public Health officials know of only one case of Asian flu in the U.S. A teen -aged girl con- tracted the disease on board a ship returning from Europe and was hospitalized in New York as soon as the ship docked. Usual symptoms of Type -B virus are chills, sniffles, aches and pains and a fever that sel- dom goes above 101 degrees, The Asian flu often shot temperatures as high as 104.

It Is especially useful for small fami- lies or if, for some reason, you do not wish to use your oven, • • * For the top - of - range stuffed chicken, select a. stewing chick- en that weighs from 3/ to 4. pounds, ready -to -cook weight. 1 Rinse in cold water. Drain well. Spoon stuffing into neck and body cavities. Truss this way — tuck drumsticks under the band i of skin and tie the wings flat against breast, bringing cord over drumsticks.

Re- duce heat. Add Y4 cup water; cover tightly and simmer until fork tender, add small whole onions and carrots the last 45 minutes. Prepare gravy with drippings. • • * If you want to roast your chicken in your oven buy a roast- ing chicken, rub cavity with salt, stuff, and truss it. Brush skin thoroughly with fat and place the chicken, breast up or down whichever you prefer, on a rack at least /-inch high in a shallow, open pan. Cover top of chicken with thin fat -moisten- ed cloth. Do not wrap bird in cloth (the cloth helps in uni- form browning and makes bast- ing unnecessary), Roast at a con- stant temperature of 325° F. Do not sear, add water or cover. If cloth dries during cooking, moisten cloth with fat drippings in pan. If you have started it breast down, turn breast up when about three-quarters done. This is the approximate roast- ing time for ready -to -cook weights: 214-3/ pounds, 2-3 hours; 3/-4% pounds, 3-3/ hours; 4'i-6 pounds. 3/ to 4 hours. • • To Prepare Chicken Gravy "Drippings" means the fat and meat juices which collect in the roasting pan. Pour drippings into measuring cup, leaving brown residue in pan. For each cup of gravy desired, use 1/ table- spoons each of fat and flour and 1 cup liquid. Measure the quantity of fat needed back into tre roasting pan. Place over low heat and cook slowly until frothy, stir- ring constantly with pancake turner, blender, spoon or whisk. Add measured flour to fat. Blend thoroughly and brown, if de- sired. Add the cool or lukewarm (not hot) liquid all at once. Cook and stir constantly until uni- formly thickened. While stirring, blend brown residue into the gravy, Simmer 5 minutes. Sea- son to taste.

A friend, who frequently favors me with delectable But- termilk Hot Cakes when here -for a weekend, was high and dry in her own apartment some miles away but I ' wanted something right now, write Janet L. Lang in The Christian Science Monitor. Memory stirred with recollec- tions of wintry mornings In Iowa when I would awaken to the beat of a spoon in a certain aluminum "Johnny Cake" pan. This unmistakable sound coming up the stairway accompanied by aroma of frying bacon drew me out of my snugly warmth. The frosty coldness of an unheated upstairs gave plenty of encour- agement to dress quickly (as if this were necessary). Downstairs, I would find Dad just adding the last milk to make sure the batter was thin enough. The kitchen range would be glowing with a 450 degree F. oven ready to do its part, and pans of bubbling fat cause the winter season, in which flu thrives, is almost over, The nearness of spring is also the reason doctors don't recom- mend a mass vaccination pro- gram at this time. It takes two shots spaced four to six weeks apart to provide immunity against flu. And two weeks are required after the second dose for the vaccine to take effect. , Vaccinations, however, are still recommended for special risk cases such as elderly persons, the chronically ill and pregnant wo- men to give them at least par- tial protection. on the back of the stove awaited the "Johnny Cake" batter. • • • I have never seen a recipe for our kind of Johnny Cake in cookbooks. I believe most folks understand it to be a hot bread. eaten with butter and honey or jelly. Our Johnny Cake is of an entirely different consistency, re- maining quite soft in the cen- ter and having crisp and crusty outsides, and being only about an inch thick when fully baked. It has no baking powder or soda in it. The secret of success is having the grease in the bak- ing pans hot enough so it will bubble completely over the bat- ter when poured in. Would you like to try some? Break 1 egg in a bowl and add: 2 teaspoons salt s,4 cup sweet milk s,4 cup (heaping) cornmeal 1,5 cup flour, and mix well. Add about another cup of milk to make very thin batter. Put about 1 inch lard or other shortening in 10" iron skillet (enough to cover batter). Get this piping hot on stove — pour batter into it and immediately put into hot oven (450 degrees F.) Bake about 12 minutes by which time it will be golden brown on top and have a lacy crust around the sides of the skillet. Serve with butter and syrup. Perhaps you had better double .the recipe!

GAZETTE Keeping Silence Can Be Dangerous For eight years a Balham, London, man refused to speak to his wife, The reason, said a di- vorce court judge recently, was that the husband found a letter to her from another man, The husband, a bus driver, wouldn't say a word, even though his wife begged hint to speak. Instead he wrote notes such as: "Don't get dinner on Saturday or Sunday. Dinner money on mantel -piece." Yet all this time the wife cooked his meals and washed his clothes, and they shared the same bedroom, even the same bed. Finding the silence unbeat- able, the wife left home, but even then she went to the house at week -ends to clean and cook. Eventually, the husband's soli- citors wrote asking her to stop these visits. The wife who had suffered so much was granted a decree nisi because of her husband's deser- tion. His petition alleging she had deserted him was rejected, Another husband, from Bag- shot, Surrey, would send his wife "to Coventry" for months at a time, During those periods all -he said was "Thank -you" for his breakfast, "Good-bye" when he left for work, and "Hullo!" when he returned. Granting a decree nisi to ,the woman on the grounds of cruel. ty and desertion, the divorce court judge remarked: "That sort of conduct can be more de- vastating than violence.' Another wife complained that the effect of her hasband's long silences made her feel "closod in as if the walls were coming in on me." When she protested, her hus- band asked what he sh':uld talk about. She replied, "The weather or anything rather than remain silent." But the judge refused a de- cree to this wife, saying that such conduct did not amount to cruelty in law. The wife had been looking for an excuse to get rid of her husband, added the judge.

I was calling him, "Nice cold morning," I said, to which he agreed with the glee that goes with being a fuel dealer on a cold morning. it was, indeed, 22 degrees below zero, or 54 degrees of frost, and the sort of morning on which Gene oils his cash register be- fore lie tackles his eggs. This has been a wonderful winter for Gene, and he has not been seen without a smile since some- time in September when it Wss quite waren, "It's a beautiful day!" he said, I said, "Have you got a gar- den hose?" "Sure," he said. I said, "Are you planning to use it today?" A considerable pause ensued, during which Gene digested the -oddity of this query, and prob- ably measured my sanity down to the last quarter inch. Unlike Gene, he didn't conte up with anything memorable, but simply said, "No," "Can I borry it?" I asked. After another pause he said I might, "Good!" I said. "I'll be right down. to get it." I didn't hang up at once, for I could sense that Gene was meditating, and probably would like to say more as soon as he could figure out what he would say, "What are you going to wa- ter?" he asked. "My wife," I said. • So this has been my project, and of course Gene came around, afterward to fill himself in on the details, The continued cold, with little snow cover, has ele- vated Gene into the Morgan and SAWING WOOD Talk about a housing shortage.

Certificate of indebtedness Vanderbilt class, but it has sent the frost deep into the ground until my waterline froze and lapsed into desuetude, Deep un- der the ground it congealed and lay still. The pump, one morn- ing, was churning without a gurgle, and the sink tap said, "Ahs" Out here, I ani my own water commissioner, with full author- ity. I knew just what to do, I went below, closed valve A and c'pened valve B, This threw our system off the spring line and onto the well line, and I was glad for two sources. The pump picked up, and we had water again, We bathed and laved, and the frozen springline froze some more, But a well and a spring are two different things, and while the spring bubbles on with mote water than we can use, the well has a limited feed, and after about a week the pump began to swish -swish again when it should knock -knock, and my pink apron informed nye, "We're dry again!" We were, and in trouble. So I called on Ivan Walling- ford, who has a 200 -amp arc welding machine in the back of his truck, and he came and hooked cables to each end of my frozen pipe and surged his AC with,the idea of thawing it out. But he gave up after two days and said if June and July didn't come oaf hot, to let him know. "I don't see," said my pink apron, ". . , why you don't run a hose out to the --spring and hook it on the pump!" It wasn't quite that easy, but the idea was sound, I broke the 'intake line, screwed .on an ordi- nary faucet, and attached the end of my garden hose. All I needed now was 350 feet more gardenhose to complete the dis- tance to the hillside spring. I hope somebody smiles a bit at the neighborhood thoughts and Enquiries that prevailed when I went out to borrow 350 feet of garden hose on a -22 morning. It is also possible my answers would make gems .of whimsey is anybody had collected them. Gene's hose completed my needs, and I washered them, tightened the joints, and thrust the nether ,end into the clear, cold, sparkling liquid of my lovely spring. The hoseline was stretched upon the bosom of the snow; through the yellow plas- tic length I could see the water moving toward the house, When I came in my yellow apron had the laundry going, and was run- ning the tub for ablutions, (She had changed aprons, was going to wash the pink one.) The only trouble with my system is that I can't shut it oft or my hoseline will freeze up instantly. I've had to suspend the automatic pressure shutoff to keep the motor going, and as this gives us surplus water, I've had to run the excess into the well. The well is now fuller than ever before. We use what we can, and run the rest off down the valley, I'm bathing four and five times a day, and Lm the cleanest farmer in Maine. But it's kind of comical us- ing Gene's hose. If the power goes off, or a fuse blows, or a pressure valve goes, I'm going to have 400 feet of the frozenest garden hose you ever saw, with Gene's right in the middle, Meantime, I'm bending all ef- forts with the authorities to have an early spring and a quick re- turn of warm weather -when 1 can return Gene's hose. But Gene smiles and smiles, vnd is delighted to be of service, and keeps telling me not to hurry the least bit about re- turning his property. "Keep i1!" he says, and he means it.

TII1PMM FROM Jo \alma Canada's policy of stamping out certain diseases before they can get a straggle -hold on the country's livestock industry has saved farmers thousands of dol- lars. - Canadian agriculture runs the risk of losing valuable export markets if contagious animal diseases are allowed to become established, and federal veterin- arians agree it is cheaper to the producer and the entire industry to eliminate these diseases.• • * •. Foot-and-mouth disease is, aii.r, example of. how it pays to wipea. out certain dreaded diseases,.. Only once did this killer get a ': toe hold in Canada, but the re • - sults were costly. Direct losses from the foot- and-mouth outbreak in Saskat- chewan seven years ago amount- ed to $1,000,000. Markets to which Canadian livestock and agriculture products normally moved were immediately closed, and it was 'estimated that the drop in potential value was $648,278,000. • • • There are other 'costs to be considered. Health of Animals, Canada Department of Agricul- ture, estimates a vaccination pro- gram for hog cholera would cost swine producers $6,800,000 a year. This is based on the fact that In the United States it cost $1 per hog up to market age to con- trol cholera, and on the fact that Canada's swine population Is about 6,800,000. • • • Instead of living with the dis- ease and depending on vaccina- • tion, Canada halts any outbreak by slaughtering diseased hogs and compensating the owners. Over the past decade, there have been seven outbreaks in which 3,459 pigs wre victimized. Com- pensation costs were $96,590. The worst cholera epidemic sinne the turn of the century occurred in 1940-41, when $204,- 176 was paid out In compensation to farmers. Cost of completely driving out this disease, though; is only a shadow of what it would be to live with it. • • • Canadian sheep producers have been told that any relaxation in this country's scrapie eradication program could jeopardize the ex- port of purebred. breeding' stock and feeder lambs to the United States, In fact, it is felt that certain segments of the U.S, sheep in- dustry will press for more rigid control on import and 011 inter- state movement. • • • Veterinarians of the Health of Animals Division, Canada 'De- partment of Agriculture, sounded this note of warning at meetings of Western Canada and Ontario sheep grower's. • , Scrapie is a chronic disease of sheep involving the central nerv- ous system and characterized by nervous symptoms, such as itch- ing and lack of co-ordination, ending in paralysis and death. It was first identified in Can- ada in a Suffolk ewe imported front Scotland in 1938. Since 1945, there have been 14 out- breaks in which 1,570 sheep were ordered destroyed and their owners compensated. • • • Four years aro, a Minisl::rial Order was signed prohibiting further importations of sheep from the United Kingdom. Under the present Canadian control program, an entire flock is slaughtered after a case of scrapie has been discovered, Sales from the flock for the preced- ing 42 month are tracked down and kept under scrutiny, The premises are ordered cleaned and the owner is advised not to re- stock for 90 days. The U.S. control program is Similar to that of Canada but ;-,.more stern. Up to November last '.mar, 138 positive cases of scrapie had been diagnosed in 70 flocks, .:and 38,611 sheep in 1,101 flocks destroyed. A Canadian observer accom- panying a U.S. fact-finding com- mittee studying the scrapie con- trol program reported that the majority of the American sheep industry supported the present eradication program,. and that some segments may urge more rigid controls.

Water, water everywhere Nor any drop to drink. The Ancient Mariner's classic lament suggests the ironic di- lemma facing the United States. On the one hand, supplies of fresh water in lakes, reservoirs, and rivers are barely able to satisfy the current national con- sumption, an amazing 140 gal - Ions a day for each American. The future expansion of the na- tion's industry and population can easily lead to a critical shortage. On the other hand, there is an almost unlimited sup- ply of water in the oceans and, surprisingly, inside the earth it- self: Deep beneath the dry, dusty surface o' the Great Plains states, for example, enough wa- ter lies in rockbound pools to meet all the nation's current agricultural, industrial, and home -consumption needs. But this liquid is so contaminated with salt and minerals that it is unfit for human use. Last month, however, a major step was taken toward convert- ing this promising supply of water into purer form when the Interior Department announced plans to build the nation's first large-scale plant to remove the salt from sea water. A $1.5 mil- lion array' of tanks and pipes covering not more than an acre, the new plant will distill a mil- lion gallons of water a day, al a cost of about $1 per thousand gallons -one-seventh of the old cost of desalting sea water. However, even $1 a thousand gallons hardly seems a bargain. Most U.S. communities pay an average of 30 cents. But in many water -impoverished areas, the Interior Department's new still would be immediately welcome even without the additional im- provements which, department experts say, should further cut the price of desalting sea water in half. Already, 80 cities around the nation have asked to be con- sidered as possible plant sites. Although the location will not be announced until next sum- mer, it will probably be in south- ern California where the water situation is often desperate. The Interior Department's new plant is the first of five which • will be built under a recent $10 aa million authorization from Con- gress. It is based on an ides --a submitted four years ago by the late Walter Lucius Badger, pro fessor of chemical engineering at the University of Michigan, who was for years a top consul- tant for the salt industry, Like any other still, Badger's boils water which turns to steam, leaving impurities behind. It is then condensed into pure, rather flat -tasting water. By ingenious use of long tubes in the evapor- ation process, Badger was able i to slash the price of desalting sea water. Badger's most important con- tribution, however, was a trick he borrowed from the salt in- dustry to lick his plant's big - (Ftr.' 111 NDAYSffl001 LESSON By Rev. R. Barclay Warren B.A., B,D. Samuel as Judge 1 Samuel 7:5-16 Memory Selection: God forbid that I should sin against the Lord in ceasing to pray for you; but I will teach you the good and the right way. 1 Samuel 12:23. Iii the lessons of this quarter we resume the history of Israel, beginning at the time of Samuel, and consider the united kingdom under Saul, David, and Solomon, and then the first 25 years of the division. Samuel was the last of the judges. Like so many of God's great servants during the cen- turies, he had yielded himself to God's will in his youth. His pro- phetic career was probably the longest of any Hebrew prophet that ever lived. He guided the nation through the transition period from government by judge to government by mon- archs. Under God's direction he chose and anointed the first two of the kings, Saul and David. Our lesson is a record of his pro- motion of a religious revival dur- ing a dark period when the Israel- ites were largely dominated by the Philistines. In obedience to Samuel the people of Israel put away their idols. Then as a priest, Samuel led them in sac- rifices and worship. The Phili- stines came toward them to bat- tle but the Lord thundered with a great thunder on that day upon the Philistines and discom- fited them; and they were smit- ten before Israel, It was on that memorable day that Samuel set up a stone and called it Eben- ezer, saying Hitherto hath the LORD helped us. This incident has been an encouragement to many people. If we put away our idols and serve the Lord, He will fully guide and direct our lives, He will bear our burden and sustain us. So the Psalmist ex- horts us. "Cast they burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee." 55:22. A man shows how great he is, or how small he is, by his atti- tude when someone else is pre- ferred before him and steps into his place of leadership. The me- mory selection demonstrates that Samuel was truly a great man. He cared for the people. That love continued even when the people wanted and gained a kinj in Samuel's place. They wanted to be like the nations round about them. The story of Samuel's life and devotion to God will always be an inspiration to those who want God's best in their lives. gest, most expensive problem: Cleaning out the salt scale which frequently gummed up his pipes. Since salt scale tends to deposit on other salt crystals instead of a metal surface, Badger simply injected salt crystals into the tubes as bait. The result, accord- ing to Interior Secretary Fred Seaton, was "a remarkable break -through in saline water conversion." - From NEWS - WEEK. upsidedown to Prevent Peeking "1.V1`<10dS S I �I N2iV3 • SON3 1NV M 31INV.'39`41213AV 213dVD ;1V210W!. ?v. 3S r Od 'a 303';'.S1©3W3Nm b 3 W 3 1 V I :` CIV021 3s.

YI THE PRICE OF GOOD LIVING ,CANADIANS are still enjoying the world's second highest standard of living. , They can do this because of the contribu- tion of manufacturing to our national progress and prosperity. Perhaps Canadians can buy some things cheaper elsewhere than in Canada. But if they are not willing to pay Canadian prices for Can- adian products, our own workers will not for long be able to receive Canadian wages, Nor will Cnadian governments receive the tax rev- enues they require to sustain. Canada's welfare programmes. There is a price to pay for everything, in- cluding the Canadian standard of living.

I went steady with this cne for three weeks (which I know now was silly) but he told me right away how much he loved me and he drew a rosy picture of our future. "Then suddenly It was all over. He walked out. He said he just likes to date a girl a dozen times or so and then ditch her, Later I learned he was that kind. "Are all boys like that? Do they just string you along until they have you at their feet and thea walk out? A decent girl can't like a boy she's afraid to trust. "How can a girl know when a boy is telling the truth and when he is not? I'm only 17, but honestly I feel like 90. I'm fed up with them all! Are they all like this one?

NO NEEDLE USED — This young, man is getting his polio vaccine in a much more pleasant way than the usual shot in the arm. He's testing a cherry.flavored, one•dose serum that is taken orally. We didn't think it could hap- pen — but it did. We got water in our basement — that was the night, whene there was a three- quarter inch rainfall in many Ontario districts. I woke up in the night and heard a terrific wind driving rain against the front, of the house, From the window I could see floods every- where, including the road, Pres ently I went downstairs, found the sump -pump working all right and only a small trickle of water across the floor. I thought there wasn't too much to worry about and went back to bed without waking Partner. About five o'clock he was awake and down- stairs and by that time it was a different story, Water was com- ing in at several places. Worse than that the sump -pump wasn't operating properly. We couldn't take a chance on that quitting so a plumber was sent for, He put on a n;;v switch and then it was al: right, We thought we were lucky not having to buy a new pump. But even that would have been better than a flooded base- ment. However, there was still work to do — sweeping water away from the furnace and over towards the drain. Later on Bob came to the rescue, fixed a pipe across the floor so there was better drainage. With that done we were able to sleep in com- fort. Next morning after listen- ing to the radio and hearing of the flood damage in so many dis- tricts we were ashamed to feel sorry for ourselves. For instance, one morning at the hairdresser's the entire con- versation was about flooded base- ments — and even of ground floors being under water. At one drugstore eight inches of water at the street level and six inches in a nearby restaurant. One wo- man said come spring there would he a "For Sale" notice up outside their house. I can't see much point in that. I would say far better to reinforce the walls against flooding. To sell one place and buy another might he jump- ing from the frying pan into the fire — or maybe from a stream into a lake would he a better simile. We may never have a situation like this again. After all it is only the result of so rnurh frost in the ground there is no natural drainage for the supe r •abundance of surface v,,atrr. And do you know what'' When the rain stol,ped and the sun carne out 1 went sloshing through the water to get the mail and there, if you please, was a crow strutting around in our backyard and a robin singing lustily from a tree -top. Insolent creatures — it might be spring for them but it wasn't for us. They were both wrong anyway — it wasn't spring for them either. The next day we were back to winter again. Yesterady afternoon Dee and family came in for a visit, I tnid her to bring skates for the children as we had plenty of ice, Hut by the time they got here the ice was covered with snow. Such quick changes — looks as if we can never guess right. Al- ter playing with our toboggan for awhile the boys came into the house and it wasn't long be- fore Jerry provided us with a little excitement.. Dee put him into the crib for a nap( we al- ways keep a crib Into the spare room). Fifteen minutes later there was a terrific thump and then a yell. Dee rushed into the bedroom and found Jerry on the floor, flat on his tummy. Appar- ently he had tried to climb over the high side of the crib, couldn't quite make it and over- balanced.

This morning I was lying awake thinking about daylight saving time which will soon 'be with us once again, And I was • thinking what a handicap it Is to the farmer and how little dif- ference it makes to anyone else. Arid because it makes so' little difference to town and city folk surely greater consideration could be given to the farmer when you consider the incon- venience he suffers from April to October. Usually he falls in line by putting back the clock but that doesn't dry the dew on the grass. And cows cannot be put out to pasture on wet alfalfa or they'll bloat, Nor can hay be raked or baled until it's dry. That means farmers lose hours of precious time, day after day, week after week, No one, other than the farmer, takes the least bit of notice, And yet, surely the farmer's work is more important than the office worker's pleasure. The farmer ' is having a hard enough time as it is, with high production costs and low returns, Prices paid for eggs and market hogs are ridiculously low and many a farmer now faces the necessity — and the expense — of drilling a new well during the coming season,. And then to have DST wished upon him once again. Must the majority always win when the decision is so definitely against the interests of the minority - that is, the far- mers? Blame The Sun For Crime Wave ? Two of the most spectacular sun -spots ever seen from the earth were observed by millions of people recently. Each spot or "pimple" was about 100,000 miles in diameter — more than four times bigger than the earth. The white-hot vapours of a sun -spot appear dark only in contrast to the even greater blaze of heat around them. As- tronomers say that they now know how hot sun -spots are — 4,000 degrees Fahrenheit com- pared with 6,000 in the rest of the sun. Sun -spots are great tornado- like storms within the sun's at- mosphere. Intensive study by scientists of the sun's behaviour shows that these internal hur- ricanes operate in cycles of about. eleven years, Some people blame them for bad weather, trade depression., Trans -Canada Air Lines STEWARDESSES • Age 20.26 O Single • Jr Matriculation or Business equivalent O Height 5'2" to 5'7" O Weight in proportion to height, but not over 130 lbs.

They claim that in the past sun -spots have coincided with gales, floods, mysterious a i r crashes and the fading - out of short- wave radio, When the early astronomers first detected sun -spots — the Chinese first noted thein about A.D. 170 — scientific men of the day ridiculed the suggestion that the sun could have "blemishes" on its surface. But telescopes later confirmed there were rents in the glowing at- mosphere. A Russian scientist some years ago insisted that all human des- tiny was controlled by sun -spots. He pointed out that the sun was a colossal radio transmitter and that its "radio waves" speed across space in vast streams and at speeds close to that of light All this increased electric en- ergy pouring upon our planet produced character changes, he added. "There's a letter from our men in the Sahara Desert branch again," said the assistant manager of an oil company. "They say they're short of water." "They're always short of water out there."

The man at the wheel of the giant racing car settled in his . seat and gazed at the miles of firm golden sand ahead, Some. where in the middle of the stretch lay a measured mile, a mile that at this moment meant more than anything else in .the world to him. He aimed to race across it in twenty seconds. If he succeedecj he could claim to be the fastest man on earth, • With a last look round to make sure everything was all right he got into gear and moved off, Quickly the car gathered speed. The 450 h.p. engine scroamed as the revolutions mounted. Sixty, eighty, a hun- dred miles an hour, and the dri- ver's foot pressed harder on the accelerator. A hundred and twenty, forty, fifty; still he was gathering momentum as the bea- cons marking the start of the measured distance rushed to. wards hint. At last the car was going fiat out, It was traveling at a hun- dred and eighty miles an hour, the fastest speed at which man had ever driven, as it flashy:ct across the starting line. The driver sat grim and tens. •^'•,,as tingling as he kept .,•ottle wide open, hand; and arms taut as he gripped the wheel to keep on course, Twenty seconds; the culmination of months of work and worry an() disappointment. At last, it seem. ed, the goat was about to he reached. A few hundred yards away the spectators forgot the chill wind that was blowing as they gazed infascination at the machine that was hurtling like a thunder bolt across'the sands. The drivel, too, had no thought of the wind as it screeched past his cockpit. But suddenly, when the car was already half -way acrossthe measured distance,. the wind played a dramatic part in the proceedings. An extra strong gust whipped, into the cockpit, under' the dri- ver's goggles and lilted them off Half -blinded, he took a hand off the wheel to push them away so that he could see. The move• ment caused his foot to shift slightly on the accelerator, The - eat slowed almost imperceptibly IS it neared the end of the mea lured distance. And that was how Captain Malcolm Campbell smashedthe world's motor speed record, driving one -handed and half - blinded. In the few seconds it took him to adjust his goggles the vital. measured mile was be- hind him and it' was time W slow down. That gust of wind, scurrying across Pendine 'Sands on a dull :. day in February, 1927, had rob- bed him of his ambition to cover.. a measured mile at a speed ot, three miles a minute. But he had raised the record, set up on these same sands a few months earlier by Parry Thomas, from 170,6 m.p.h. to 174.2 m.p.h, At the same time he had raised the kilometre record from 172 m.p.h, to 174.8 'm.p.h. Nowadays, when the motor speed record stands at over 400 m.p.h, and Campbell's son, Don- ald, 'has travelled at tour miles a minute on water, such speeds seem ridiculously low. Campbell himself made, at the end of his record run, what now sounds a naive remark when he said he had found no difference driving at 180 m.p.h. and 150 m.p.h, He was speaking from experi- ence of having touched 180 m.p.h, The fact that the records do not show that speed is due to a series of mishaps that make CENTER OF ATTRACTION - New York Yankee centerfielder Mickey Mantle signs autographs as he leaves the clubhouse at St. Petersburg. Mantle, who is out of action because of a re- currence of a shoulder injury, had just taken some heat treat- ment. this record run well worthy of inclusion among the fantastic stories of sport. Today, so much room is re- quired for working up speed and slowing down that it seems no more really high-speed runs can he attempted in Britain, but thirty years ago the sandy beaches along: the Bay of Car- marthen were ideal' for record attempts, and several were made at Pendine. It was here that Parry Thomas had set up the existing record; and Campbell decided it offered all the 'facili- ties he needed. For various reasons, one being that few sightseeing holiday- makers olidaymakers would get in the way, it was decided to make the at- tempt as early in the year as possible, so Campbell set up camp in January, 1927. Yet it seemed his expedition was doom- ed oomed to fail, for day after day weather conditions made any serious speed runs too danger- ous to contemplate. Frost and fog covered the country and, though Pendine was spared most of these trou- bles, Campbell and his team had to contend with gales • and continuous rain. At last there came a short break in' the weather, and he decided to try his luck. The car, fitted with a Napier aero -engine, was wheeled ' on to the sands and he 'set off. As it was largely a trial run; he was not too hope- ful of smashing the record on this attempt. In fact, he covered. the mile at approximately 171 m,p,h,, equal- ling the existing figures. If he could 'do the return trip slightly faster the record would be his. Quickly, he turned the car round and set off for the 1nea= sured mile again. Then, suddenly, with half the mile covered, the big car check- ed and slowed. Sorrowfully, the timekeepers announced the speed for the return as only 163 m.p.h. The record bid had failed. Not until the vehicle came .to a standstill was the truth dis- covered. Shells lying in the sand had cut into the tires so badly that one of them was practically severed. By some instinct Camp- bell, in the middleof what must otherwise have been a record run, had realized that disaster was imminent. He slowed down and switched off the engine. For days afterwards armies of children were out on the sands clearing the course of shells. Huge mounds of them were col- lected, but the weather remained obstinate. At last, Campbell, becoming " DUSTING A DECADE OFF - Tony Zale, who lost the middle•• weight crown to Marcel Cerdan • In 1948, duets a decade of time from his gloves as he announces he's ready to come out •F retirement.

At present, Zale runs his own restaurant in Chicago. impatient, declared that unless the weather improved within twenty-four hours he would pack up and make his attempt in Denmark. Miraculously, the skies cleared next day, though there was still a stiff wind, and by early after noon all was ready for the attempt, He set off for the mile, but had not gone , far when he stoppe'l the car. Later he said he had had difficulty in changing gear, but decided to cut short his ap proach rather than go back to his starting point. He moved off again, and this time all went well. The kilo was covered at 176 m,p.h, and the mile at 179 m.p.h. He was still gaining speed at the end at the run, so that false start, cutting short his approach by a quarter of a mile, had robbed him of the magic 180 m.p.h. , figures, al- though he was travelling faster than this at the end of the run, The incident of the goggles lowered his figures; for the ' re- turn to 173 m.p.h. for the kilo and 169 for the mile, Again a mishap that no one could fore- see had robbed him of the figures he wanted. But at least the record was his. Malcolm Campbell was satisfied. Skiers Migrate From Snow to Water If the pilot of a fast jet plane could race the sun around the globe, he would look down on. countless thousands of happy people.' enjoying the • exciting sport of water skiing on the lakes, bays, rivers, lagoons, gulfs, coves, inlets, bayous, and oceans of many continents. Water skiing today is un- doubtedly the fastest-growing sport, sweeping the world with an overwhelming appeal as an outlet for excitement and pleas- ure. The exact number of water skiers cannot be accurately de termined, since several million have taken up the sport in re- cent years. It is, however, an established fact that water skiers now considerably outnumber snow skiers. This is remarkable in that snow 'skiing is a rather ancient sport compared to water skiing. In Mexico, you will find still another great area for skiing. Acapulco, on Mexico's western coast, is a thriving centre far water skiing by natives and tour- ists alike; they enjoy it from sunup to sundown. And you can keep going south, for ski- ing is enjoyed throughout Bra- zil, Argentina, Peru, and Chile. On our recent tour through South America, my wife and I found country after country where enthusiasm forwater ski- ing was just fantastic. In Bra- zil, Peru, Colombia, and liruguay we found bodies of water teem- ing with water skiers. They have a series of lakes 86 miles long in Sao Paulo, Brazil, where skiers enjoy the sport twelve months of the year. During a flight to Peru, the captain of the`plane spoke to us about water skiing, He had learn- ed to ski in Miami for the first time and now skied frequently in Lima. He arranged for us to meet some of his skiing friends, and the password inevitably seemed to be "Are you a water skier, too?" It was on our return journey, however, that we really had our greatest thrill, We had just pass- ed through the Miraflores locks of the Panama Canal with Col- onel Arnold, army engineer in charge, He was pointing out the tremendous size of the locks when a flotilla of water skiers came speeding by. Seeing this impressive display at this most important gateway. between two oceans only strengthened our convictions on the universality of the sport. - From "Water Ski- ing," by Dick Pope. :.

"The Best For Less -- Values Unsurpassed As this fifth and probably last ses- sion of the present Legislature drew to a close members were busy being heard in teh closing debates and ev- eryone seemed to wish to part from his colleagues on good terms and to -take into, and through, the expected' elec- tion fray only pleasant memoriesi. of the many hours and days spent by alL during the past four years in honeit' endeavour to give Ontario good goy-. crnment. During the last week the traditional budget debate was concluded ,by the usual formal vote; some 150 bills re- ceived final readings; resolutions and questions by orposition members were debeted and dealt with, On Thursday His Honour Lieutin.. ant -Governor MacKay attended in the House again for the formal ceremony of giving Royal Assent to thenew laws and of nrvneuing this session of the 2. h Lolislature, and soon thereafter the 98 members had seed off to their nwn ridings and to their hnm�s for Paster and to prepare for election battle. Lcoking back in retrospect, not only on the recent session, but on all of the 25th LogislatUre's sessions, it would appear that good government in Ontario has been a reality because of the consistent effort of every mem- ber to play his part; the government members in attending not only to their own constituents' needs, hut also to ensuring proper consideration of, and action on province -wide issues; thrl cabinetin forneilteine and carrying out policies which have proven equal to Ontario's challenge and potential; and Prime 111inisler Frost. who still en:es thnlgreat and inspiring leader- SiEn w.hirll c111 an'!
