Hope Chapel was a log building with
pews made of blocks of wood and
planks for seating; with an open fire-
place and candle lighting. These early
settlers let no obstacle keep them
from attending Devine Worship, as
many came barefooted to save their
shoes, carrying then) and donning teem
to enter the Chapel reverently. Some
of the families who worshiped at Hope
Chapel were: Hunking, Jackson, Law-
rence, Raitliby, Patterson, Cunning-
ham, Rowson, Scott, Bruce, Roberton,
Crozier, Tolliver, Sheller, Throop and
Henry. Most of these families ob-
tained their deeds from the Canada
Company, and were of Scotch, Irish
or English descent.
Others taking part in tine Memorial
Service were: Rev. Henry Funge, of
Londesboro, Mr. Charles McNaughton,
M.L.A„ of Exeter, Mr. William Jewitt,
Warden of iluron County, and Judge
F. Fingland.
The present members of the come -
)cry board are: Messrs. William flunk-
ing, James Roberton, Harvey Hunk-
ing, Harry Webster, Fred Pickett and
Henry flunking, secretary -treasurer.
On October 30, 1865, a meeting was
held in Hope Chapel for electing trus-
tees. 'They were Messrs, John Taylor,
Joseph Howson, .John Crozier, William
Fordice, Thomas Cairns, Joe Scott,
Henry flunking, ,Joseph Hunking. The
Rev. ,1. Ilocking, Elias Taylor, Isaac
Lawrence. • It is told that John Taylor
donated this God's Acre lo the Chapel
in memory of his little daughter who
had died and was buried there. The
records show that burial c' a member
of the Plaetzer family took` place in
1659.
The Hope Chapel Cemetery has an
attractive pillared entrance with its
name above in wrought iron {otters and
concrete wall and steps and is now a
place of beauty with it's levelled
grounds covered with green grass. The
trustee board were amply rewarded
for their services of labour in seeing
a project like this one completed,

Pink Snakes And
St. Elmo's Fire
The Empire State is perhaps
the world's best known address.
Mail for the building and its
tenants has been properly and
promptly delivered when the
only address has been anout-
line drawing of Empire State.
It is a building richly en-
dowed with statistics and anec-
dotes, It is a building which,
when the occasion is right, some-
how is able to reverse the laws
of nature, For example, atop Em-
pire State snow falls up, rain is
sometimes red, and pink "snakes"
can be seen by many visitors.
Whimsical wind currents are
responsible for many of the phe-
nomena. Red rain is attributable
to particles of red clay picked up
by capricious winds from the
suburbs and New Jersey. Snow
falls up rather than down be-
cause of the perverse air cur-
rents ,wound the Empire State,
Pink "snakes" sometimes are
seen undulating in the air atop
the building. Strong winds pro-
duce this mirage which can be
identified as a huge python
writhing its way toward the
viewer.
When an electrical storm is
brewing, you can sample St.
Elmo's fire at the building ob-
servatory. Reach out through the
steel fence on the observatory
and you can catch hold of a
handful of cold blue flame. Or,
spread your fingers and this
ghostly phosphorescence will
play between your finger tips.
In the daylight, of course, you
can't see it, but you often can
hear the sound of St. Elmo's fire,
It's like frying a thousand eggs
at once.
Atop Empire State, visitors
often can produce their own
shows high above the streets of
New York City. These are espe-
cially clear on overcast days.
Shake hands with someone up
there and it is greatly enlarged
and reflected in the sky a dozen
city blocks away, Parents have
amused children on such days
by throwing shadow rabbits on-
to the low-flying clouds.
The question most asked about
the Empire State Building is
"Does it sway?" The answer is
"No." We proved this fact scien-
tifically through independent en-
gineers a few years ago. Aero-
nautical engineers from the Min-
neapolis - Honeywell Regulator
Company installed their newest,
most efficient and ultra -precise
gyroscope on the 85th floor of
Empire State in 1956.
Their experiments proved con-
clusively that the Empire State
Building's movement off center
was never greater than approxi-
mately one-quarter inch at any
time. Thus, the measurable
movement was only a half inch
- one-quarter inch each way
from the center.
Engineers tell us this fact sup-
ports the Empire State's reputa-
tion as a true engineering master-
piece. No building ever is con-
structed with a completely rigid
frame. If it were, engineers say,
the vibration effects would be so
evident to occupants as to be un-
comfortable, writes Colonel Hen-
ry Crown in The Christian Sci-
ence Monitor.
The "elastic" steel skeleton of
the Empire State enables it to
"give" before high winds and
thereby minimize their effect.
instruments at the building have
recorded winds of 100 miles an
hour, and velocities of 60 to 80
miles an hour are not uncommon
In severe winter storms.

In The Summer
Boarder Season
The gay summer season . of
fun -fun -fun is upon us, here in
Maine, and from every nook and
cranny of the state the joyous
whoop of the paying customer
resounds. Then, too, may be
heard, the chuckle of the resi-
dent voter, for living In a re-
gion that takes boarders is not
without its unserious moments.
Just after the railroads of Maine
petitioned for the right to cease
all passenger service, John D.
Rockefeller, Jr., arrived by train
with 20 companions to enjoy
the season at Seal Harbour, as
has been the Rockefeller wont
now for some time. Meditation
and reflection come easy after
a few such things,
Just the other day Mr, Leo
Lee of Kitery was driving into
Sanford, and on Berwick Street
his boat ran amok and crashed
a telephone pole, The news story
added that "no one was injur-
ed." This season is like that. Ex-
cept for trucks, half the autos
on Maine highways., this season
are boats. And the recent Maine
Legislature quite readily enact-
ed a new boat tax.
The cultural aspects of a sum-
mer in Maine are many. All win-
ter nothing happens except a
Holman Day poen at Grange
literary hour, and then we are
-beset and surrounded. Summer
theatres bring in .the matinee
idol and the TV star. Everybody
goes about once, with the lob-
stermen and dairy farmers rub-
bing elbows with the patroniz-
ing yacht and rusticating set,
and however earnestly or how-
ever lightly you approach the
pleasure, the summer theatres
do a fine job. •
. Then under the trees will be
musicales, featuring a retired
marine engineer who surprising-
ly blows a hot bassoon, or there
will be something like Harps -
well Day. On Harpswell Day a
literary program is staged un-
der the huge painting of Elijah
Kellogg, writer of books for
boys and long-time pastor of
the tiny church on "The Neck."
This year Marie Peary Stafford,
who was born up in the Arctic
Circle, recalled her father, who
discovered the North Pole.
At Head Tide, the ancient
church there was opened again
for its single annual service.'•At,
Dresden, a historical society • ,
dedicated an ancient courthot(s&
Not everything is so erudite l
however. Up from Boston came
an ancient horse-drawn wagon,
advertising Caribou's 100th an-
niversary celebration, for which
the town was decked and the•
men in beards, Young ladies
were competing - Miss Potato
Blossom, Miss Poultry Queen,
Miss Apple, Miss Lobster. And
Miss Maine Herself, in love,
chucked her title and prospects
to get married, and the runner-
up hastily took over.
At Calais, Norridgewock, Bow-
doinham, and many other places
their smallish celebrations were
huge successes, but Bangor's
year-long 125th program was
said to be flopping a bit and
nobody knew why, but tourists
were snapping pictures of the
new, and world's tallest, statue
of Paul Bunyan at about a
thousand an hour, Hardly any-
body turned out to see a Maine
woodsman roast a 20 -pound
chunk 'of beef on an 'open fire,
competing for $3,500 in cash and
the title of World's Champ Cook
Out King, but Eastman Kodak•
will declare a fat dividend on
account of 32 -feet of fibre -glass
statuary,'
Spending vast sums to invite
and entice its summer visitors,
Maine had the foresight to enact
a 3, per cent tax on "transient
rentals," which includes camp-
ing lots,
At Casco Bay, just as the
Fourth of July surge of island-
ers promised prosperity, the Cas-
co Bay Lines was struck by its
workers, leaving half the peo-
ple at sea and the other half
at shore, Lobstermen and pleas-
ure craft sought to alleviate tho
distress, carrying folks where
they wanted to go with neigh-
borly kindness, but the Coast
Guard arrested them for carry-
ing passengers without licenser
and things like that, pitting this
government against its people
and stirring up some talk about
the general welfare and the bles-
sings of liberty.
As multitudes moved into
Maine to enjoy the vast wilder-
ness regions, a couple of inter-
esting surveys were going on.
One is • by the international
Quoddy commission, which is
talking about flooding recrea-
tional areas to "prime" the
tidal power project, if and when,
The other is a national park
proposal to shut off thousands of
acres of northern fastness so it
can remain pristine and unen-
joyed.
At Harrison, •teen-age campers
interested in journalism gather-
ed for a forum and listened to
a long program of lectures, while
at Rangeley "Doc" Grant, who
runs a restaurant, announced his
first •annual "mutt race," with,
handsome prizes for winning
dogs.
Oh, yes — at that Bangor

pion outdoor chef, a sailor of an

ported sales were up. declared

pany, another timberland mill,
raised pay. And woodland activ-
ity included the announcement
that the entire staff of Sports
Afield, national outdoor maga-
zine, would hold editorial semin-
ars at Squaw Mountain, deep in
the Moosehead country.
As summer got under way,
though, Maine's best news of the
year was far from sports afield
— Raytheon, biggest • industrial
employer in Massachusetts, an-
nounced it would build a plant
in Maine — because the "tax
climate" was propitious, and the
Legislature had shown a sym-
pathetic industrial attitude. Al-
so, Maine people have skills not
always found in ' other sections
of the country, It was a tidy
compliment that had nothing to
do with the Summer Season at
all, but added one more to the
long list of reasons for corning
to Maine, By John Gould in
The Christian Science Monitor.

Golden Hardest
Way Down South
This was the day it happened
over most of south Georgia -
just as it does every year about
this time.
This was the day that far-
mers carne to town to exchange
their bright, golden ripe to-
bacco leaf for the debt -paying,
shoe -buying money, This was
the day that the markets open-
ed,
The flat, squatty squares of
tobacco stood guard like silent
soldiers In the -tin -roofed ware-
houses. •
Gnats and sweat clamored fcr
position on those who came to
work in these markets. No one
bothered to swat the gnats and
seldom did they wipe the pers-
piration that rolled freely.
Swiftly the feet trudged along
the rows and rows of tobacco.
Higher and higher. is the pitch
of the auctioneer, -"Fifty-eight,
fifty-eight, nine, oil nine,"
Higher and higher go the tern-
peratures, No one will deny that
the heat inside is almost beyond
belief. At the end of the row,
a cool drink of water scooped
from a bucket with an old-
fashioned dipper.
The pause is slight for the
cry of the auctioneer must be
heard over 100 baskets of to-
bacco every 15 minutes, So back
down the line they go. "Fifty-
eight, nine , , ."
All the buyers are here , , ,
representatives of major tobac-
co companies, Independents,
speculators and the house buy-
ers, Their eyes seldom leave the
piles- of lemon -colored leaf,
writes Harold Joiner In the
Atlanta Journal.
Years of experience tell them
this is the right pile. A swift
touch and then a nod, a lifted
finger or maybe just a twitch,
That's their bid, caught by the
auctioneer and shouted to tite
roof -top.
Nearby the farmer, the real
hero of this whole act, stands
listening. With fingers crossed,

They Don't Like°
These Modern Ways
Far from the bustle and night
lite of the big cities, The Nether-
lands Is still dotted with some of
the world's dourest Calvinist
communities. Among its grim-
mest is the former islet •of Urk
(pop. 5,500), a fishing village on
the Zuider Zee. On Sundays, Ur -
kers still separate their hens
from the roosters, turn their
paintings to the wall, read only
one book ((the Bible), take only
one. processional walk (to
church). Doing anything else is
sinful. For years life in Urk, was
prettyroutine, and the town con-
stable's daily report invariably
read: "Nothing has happened."
That was before Urk ceased to
be an island.
Ten years ago a road was built
on a dike that connected Urk to
the mainland, and the 20th cen-
tury began catching up with Ur -
kers, especially the younger
ones. Traditions began to change,
especially the pleasant one of
"public cuddling," in which
young lovers hugged and
squeezed each other on Friday
and Saturday nights in Urk's 400 -
yard - long main street, while
around them a circle of shouting
and laughing boys and girls teas-
ed the lovers ("Afterward," said.
one traditionalist, "the brides
were properly led to the altar").
With the advent of short skirts,
high heels and Dutch Teddy boys
from the mainland, public cud-
dling became more basic. On one
wild night last winter, 500
youngsters, many of them drunk,
rioted on the main street. Pubs
therafter were ordered closed at
10 o'clock on Saturday nights,
This ended neither the boozing
nor the love -making on the dike.
Recently Urk's irked elders
'cracked down. A. new Urk law
made it a ` crime to "trudge,
slouch, lounge, saunter, fiock to-
gether" or "to sit or lie" after
dark along public roads. MaxI-
mum penalty: a fine of 300 guil-
ders ($79) or two months in jail.
Love -smitten Urkers hoped to
get around the ban simply by
taking to the woods on the main-
land,a short bike ride away,
Mourned one oldtimer: "Our
world-, is turned upside down
nowadays in Urk, and all because
of that rotten dike."

This article about wheat -
threshing in the days not -so -
long ago started happy mem-
ories in the mind of one reader
- who passes it along' to you,
wishingyou the same. It was
written by Charley Stookey and
and appeared in The Christian
Science Monitor.
• • •
Wheat -threshing season was a
glorious time of year for the
boy. on a farm 40 -odd years ago.
It meant trips to farms three and
four miles away -trips not made
at any other time of the year, It
meant helping play host to a
score or more of men, some .of
them neighbors, others "help"
who followed the harvest,
For the boy with a pony or
riding horse it meant extra
money for carrying water. to the
workers in the fields. In our
neighborhood I was the fortu-
nate fellow with a pony, and for
several years carried water for
many farmers in the area.
In those days wheat was the
major crop in our county in
southern Illinois, In fact, St,
Clair County was the leading
wheat -producing county in the
state.
• • •
Wheat was harvested with a
reaper which bound the, grain
and kicked out the sheaves as it
made the rounds of the field
pulled. by a four - horse team,
•later by a tractor. These sheaves
(bundles) were set upright in
"shocks" of 12 to 16 per shock
and capped with two which had
been spread to form a roof of
straw for the heads of the
standing sheaves.
Harvest usually began late in
June with threshing starting
about July 1. I cannot remem-
ber a Fourth of July when
threshing was not in progress.
Often I wished for a shower to
blow up on that day - just
enough rain to stop the work. so
I could celebrate the Fourth.
Seldom was my ' wish grar,ted,
although one rainy season the
threshing machine remained at
our place a full week without
turning a wheel,
The . threshing rig I recall
most vividly consisted of a "sep-
arator" pulled from farm to
farm and operated by a coal -
.fired steam traction engine.
There were two of these outfits
In our community, both of which
threshed at our place during my
boyhood.
• • •
My father always insisted the
operator clean his separator
thoroughly before moving to our
place. This was to remove any
wild onion bulblets which might
have lodged in it from wheat
on farms of men not so particu-
lar about this • pest. Frequently
onions ,or garlic in 'wheat cut the
price as much as ten cents n
bushel.
On occasions when my father
suspected the cleaning 'job had
not been well done he would
switch to the other operator for a
year or two. I firmly believe the
operators respected Dad's de-
sire to keep our farm free of
wild onions, and that his in-
sistence on cleanliness helped
reduce the pest in our township.
• • •
Arrival of the threshing crew
at our place was anticipated
several days ahead with exten-
sive preparations for feeding the
Wren, ."."" , l rler<<,;; and feeding
their h
, Our dining room was large,
and the solid - oak table with
which my folks started house-
keeping in 1884 could be ex-
tended to seat 14 persons. This
meant a second table, as the
average crew numbered 25 men.
Usually the second table pre-
sented no problem, as the "pitch-
ers," the men in the fields who
loaded the wagons with sheaves
of grain were later getting in
for dinner than the men who
drove the wagons. The drivers
were neighbors, helping with
teams and wagons, while the
pitchers were often itinerant
laborers.
• • •
Buying food for threshers was
a wholesale operation. For a sin-
gle meal a roast of beef costing
as much as a dollar was bought.
In those days a dollar bought a
man-sized roast, too. The garden
supplied new potatoes, string
beans, peas, beets, cabbage, to-
matoes, onions, and cucumbers.
'Usually all of these appeared on
RUNNER-UP - Despite a tooth-
less victory -type grin, Bobby
Schwenker, 8, finished only
second in a blueberry pie eat•
fest,
the dinner table along with the
meat, homemade pickles, jellies,
preserves, cake, and two or three
kinds of pie.
This was the one time of year
we had "baker's" bread, There
was not time, to bake enough
bread to feed 25 men four or five
times a day. From a bakery we
bought a dozen or more loaves
at a time of Vienna bread.
Mama used to tell me to get the
bread with "crust all around."
It was hand -sliced diagonally.
• • •
We fed the men four or five
times a day, In our community,
lunch at 10 a.m. and 4 p.m,
was a "must." However, the crew
did not come to the house for
this repast. It was taken to a
spot preferably in the shade of
a tree near the threshing ma-
chine, and served on a checkered
tablecloth spread on the ground.
Lunch consisted of big platters
of cold cuts of meat, sausage,
and cheese with pickles, bread,
cake orcookies, and pie.
When I carried water on
neighboring farms it was lunch-
time that intrigued me. It was a
German community and certain
types of German cheese and
sausages which I relished - but
were never served at our place -
were always to be had at the
neighbor's.
• • •
A fifth meal would be break-
fast for the man who came early
to fire the engine and have
steam up by the time it was dry
enough to thresh, and any of the
itinerants who slept in the hay-
loft,
In the usual threshing ring of
those days, getting help was a
matter of trading and sharing. It
required at least eight teams
with bundle wagons to haul the
sheaves from the field to the ma-
chine, and two teams with box
wagons to haul the grain from
the machine. When we were
helping elsewhere we furnished
one team and wagon. This was
handled by my father or a hired
man until. I was big enough
Then I took Dad's place.
• • •
The pitchers were hired for
the season by the operator and
paid by the farmer on the basis
of number of bushels threshed.
If the yield was good, and
threshing was uninterrupted by
rain or breakdown, a pitcher
could earn as much as five dol-
lars a day. That was an excel-
lent day's wage.
• * *
• Help in the kitchen was a
community affair too, as was
lending of dishes and silverware
to set a table for 25 men. The
flve-woman crew in our kitchen
consisted of my mother, two
aunts, a hired girl, and a neigh-
bor whom my mother helped in
return. Frequently Mama fretted
about how long they had worked
to fix a big meal to have it
disappear in a matter of minutes
in a most unappreciated manner.
Dad was always glad to see
the end of the threshing season,
as it accounted for about four
weeks of the year's hardest
work. However, It did have com-
pensations, occasionally in the
form of a shiny new Ford, Max-
well, or Overland made possible
by the extra money from wheat,
which in those days was the big
cash crop of the region.
Some poet has written:
"Backward, turn backward, 0
Time, in your flight,
Make me a child again just for
tonight."
For my part, I'd settle for the
opportunity to put my feet un-
der the dinner table during
wheat harvest in an old-fash-
ioned threshing ring.
Deer antlers are made of solid
bone and are shed once each
year, while horns have only a
bony core surrounded by a
horny sheath and are a per-
manent fixture. These are
never shed except in the case
of the prong -horned antelope.

LESSON
By Rev R, Barclay Warren
R.A., BD.
A NEW SPIRIT RENEWS
PEOPLE
Joel 1:15-20; 2:12-13, 21-23, 28-29,
Memory Selection: Fear not,
0 land, be glad and rejoice: for
the Lord will do great things.
Joel 2:21.
The people of Israel were In
trouble. A great plague of lo-
custs had passed over the land.
There was a great drought taus -
Ing distress to the animals as
well as to the people. The pro-
phet, Joel, called the people to
fasting and prayer. It was not
to be a mere ritual but the sym-
bol of genuine repentance. "Rend
your heart and not your gar-
ments, and turn unto the LORD
your God," was God's message
to them. The priests were to
lead the people in repentance to
God. "Let the priests, the min-
isters of the LORD, weep be-
tween the porch and the altar,
and let them say, Spare thy
people, 0 LORD, and give not
thine heritage to reproach, that
the heathen should rule over
them." Such exhortations to
cermet seeking of God are al-
ways accompanied by great
promises. God promises that
they shall have plenty and they
shall be•satisfied. He says, "My
people shall never be ashamed."
The prophet in his vision of
the blessings to come to the
people if they turn to God, is
carried to a later day. He sees
beyond the time of our Lord's
ministry on earth to the pouring
out of the Spirit on the day of
Pentecost. This is the day in
which we live. But are we re-
ceiving the blessings which are
available to us? Has the Spirit
come to us, purifying our hearts
as He did those of the early dis-
ciples? Acts 15:9. Are we endued
with power from on high? Acts
1:8. Are we making disciples
for Jesus Christ as did these
Spirit -filled disciples? Alas, we
must confess to much weakness
in the church. Many are but
babes in Christ. There is strife
and division. Others have joined
the church without experiencing
the new birth. They have never
surrendered their will to Jesus
Christ,
We don't want to bo gloomy
but Via Must confess that thele
is a spiritual drought affecting
many people. We need to turn
to God in genuine repentance u
the prophet urges in this book,
Then God will pour out of His
Spirit upon us and great bless-
ings and happiness will abound.
The hornbill, an African bird,
walls herself up with mud in-
side a hollow tree at nesting
time. She leaves a small hole
through which her mate feeds
her and the young. When the
brood is ready to fly, the
mother bird breaks out of her
self-made prison.

maybe I should keep on looking
for my ideal! He declares he
loves me too much to want to
be free, and why couldn't I ac-
cept him the way he is?
"Do you think he should give
up these things for me? Or
should I agree with him? Or
shall I call the whole deal off?
I'm so mixed up I've even
thought of that, but I love him
so! And I'm afraid that even if

How a Spider Makes
Such a Strong Web
The webs seen in the country,
in the garden, outside houses
and sheds, and in fact every-
where, are rather bewildering;
there seem to be so many dif-
ferent kinds and so many that
are • crude and amateurish. Do
not -think,. however, as I know
some people do, that the spider
builds ' well or badly according
to the mood she is in: each spe-
cies builds on one fixed pat-
tern, but the talents of the dif-
ferent species vary... .
Having got a vague idea of
the more usual types of webs
the time has come to study the
actual making of one of them.
We cannot deal with 'them all,
so naturally we shall select the
spider's supreme art, the orb
web of Aranea, surely lineal des-
cendant of Arachne herself.
When I first saw the Aranea
working I did so more or less
under compulsion. A friend with
one of those shaded watch-
maker's lenses said to me, "You
must see this!" just as I was
leaving the house. I went up al-
though conscious of a bus to
catch. It was an immature spider
making a web, Spiders are al-
ways doing this and I wondered
why he wasted my time about it;
just a small "insect" running
here and there dangling from
time to time on threads. 'Then
he handed me the lens and the
picture changed. I saw not only
a spider making its web, but a
skilled craftsman engaged in an
intricate piece of work, Except
when joining or fastening lines
(which only occupied a split sec-
ond) this spider did everything
at a run. It was not a flustered
or excited run but a steady
trot....
I soon became aware of some-
one muttering by my side. It
was my friend wanting his lens
back, I gave it to him and wait-
ed impatiently for my turn to
come again. Only dusk and the
inability to see sent us away
I had found a new thrill which
has never diminished. . . .
Whether Aranea gets confus-
ed I cannot say. I think she is
pretty sure of herself by now,
but with six hundred taps to
think about and five different
kinds of silk at her disposal (to
he mixed or not) the making of
an Aranea web must he a com-
plex affair from the point of
view of selection only... .
What then is the strength of
the thread made in the spider's
factory? Experts have gone in-
to this matter and their verdict
is that the tensile strength .of
spider thread is second only to
that of fused quartz.
If you watch a web in a gale
you will find that it is strong,
A large leaf will be held, though
it struggles like a live thing in
the shrieking wind to get away,
drawing the web right out. A
split second aught to see it tear
a hole and whisk off. But the
strands hold. Once in such a
gale I saw a spider venture out
and moving with care climb to
the leaf and cut it out just as
a sailor In a hurricane might
cut away a sail for the safety
of his ship. — From "The Spi-
der," by John Crompton.

Doctors, diagnoses and treat-
ment vary as much as houses and
architecture. Last week the six -
months old baby belonging to
one of our neighbours was quite
sick with a temperature of 104
degrees. The mother naturally
was --quite excited and phoned
her: doctor — in this case It was
a lady doctor. The doctor heard
her ,out, said to keep the child
quiet and comfortable and to
let her know if he didn't show
signs of improvement in 29
hours — or if he appeared to
be getting worse, ")nut, Doctor,
don't I do anything — shouldn't
he have needles or something?"
"Yes, you can do something.
Here is what you do. Your hus-
band is home? Fine. Sit him
down in the rocking chair, put
the baby in his arms and YOU
go off and have a good sleep!

You have a line, strong, healthy
baby, he'll throw off the slight
infection that he has without
needles and such -like."
The doctor was right. In two
days the child was back to nor-
mal and the mother only slight-
ly the worse for . wear.
It did me good to hear that
story because I am convinced
that mothers nowadays have be-
come too dependent on needles
and miracle medication, Last
week there were interesting re-
ports coming from the British
and Canadian Medical Conven-
tion being held in London, Eng-
land, emphasizing the danger of
antibiotics and so called wonder
drugs being used too freely.
Seems to me it is high time the
public were made aware of this
danger. It Is a "get -well -quick"
form of treatment that has be-
come very popular. Why? Be-
cause adults can usually keep
on their feet while being treat-
ed and children don't have to
be kept in bed and fussed•over.
Results are fast, reducing time
and tension to a minimum. But
are the over-all results desir-
able ?
A child's temperature goes up
and down very quickly. It is
frightening to a young mother
but a high temperature In itself
is not a cause for alarm. It is
nature's way of fighting off in-
fection. The danger lies in the
chance of a chill as the fever
subsides. That is why it is so
necessary for a child to be kept
quietly in bed, on a light diet
and away from draughts. By
the time the temperature has
dropped, if the child has caught
any contagious disease it will
show itself in some form of
rash — a rash that will come
out more quickly i4 the child is
kept warm.
So often I am amazed at see-
ing little tots playing around
the house, and even outside,
whiney, feverish and so obvi-
ously out of sorts. They should
be in bed, getting all the sleep
they can take, taking plenty of
fluids and their little hot bodies
sponged off frequently with
warm water, The lady doctor I
have mentioned evidentlybe-
lieved in giving nature a chance.
And I might add she is a young-
ish woman so could hardly be
accused of having antiquated
ideas.
Which brings me to another
thought -- just what do wo
mean when wa say things, or
ideas, are antiquated?. 'ratio
]awns, for instance., You have
seen those unsightly bare
patches that appear from time
to time on thebest of well -kept
lawns, caused by white grubs
' during a three-year cycle, These
white grubs come from June
bugs that burrow into the soil
and lay their eggs which devel-
op into white grubs, Maybe you
think this lawn pest 1s some-
thing new. It isn't — in fact It
is quite antiquated. I was read-
ing all about the white grub
pest in an old "Canada Farmer"
dated 1873. The life story r
the bugs and the methods used
for their extermination was
much the 'same then as now.
Penicillin we also think )f
as comparatively new, Actually
it is only the culture that is
new. What goes into it is as
old as the hills, The same is
true of so many modern drugs,
Rauwolfia a n d derivatives of
rawolfia are used extensively
for high blood. pressure. But
long before it was refined for,
medicinal purposes the people
of India, including Ghandi, were
chewing the roots of rauwolfia
to keep themselves in good con-
dition. I believe I am right in
saying that high blood pressure
hardly exists among the natives
of India.
Well; we had some rain last
week that lasted 'tor . quite a
few hours, Not - enough by a
long way but we are thankful
for small mercies. One farmer
I know •may be wishing it had
never rained. During a terrific
storm In the Brockville district
13 of his pure-bred Holstein cat-
tle were killed by a lightning
bolt. They were insured but the
insurance was a long way from
covering the loss, For some of
the cows the farmer wouldn't
havetaken a $1000 each.
It is hot again now and I
don't like it one bit. One day
it was nice and cool and I
yanked a roast of beef from the
'frig' and got it cooked. Fur
three weeks we' had lived on
cold meats and minute steaks
rather than have the oven on.
Art has gone up to the cottage
for his vacation. Dee and the
children will be there until the
end of August. We . think: that
older folk like ourselves are
more comfortable at home.
How Phoebe Snow
Was Created
In the vaudville of our inno-
cent childhood there was one
joke that never failed to get a
rousing hand, the one about the
little boy who was asked to name
the two most famous women in
history and promptly answered,
"My Mamma's Mamma and
Phoebe Snow.'...
Phoebe Snow came onto the
American scene for the flrst time
in 1900, when the country was
just beginning to realize that
such innovations as the tele-
phone, electric light, the solo
saxophone, and: display advertis-
ing had come to stay....
Each, new phase of Phoebe's
activity was presented in detail,
with eye -stopping examples of
the ',country's top poster art,
which certainly had come a long
way from the woodcuts that por-
trayed the Lackawanna's pot -
stacked engines on the timetables
of the seventies. Phoebe in the
beginning had been merely a
pleasant figure posing on the
lower step of a railroad car to
display the whiteness of her
frock. (The comedian . Pete Dai-
ley was widely quoted for his
observation that she had not got
off the step nor changed her cos-
tume for two months.) But there
was no kinship between a dress-
maker's dummy and the glamour
girl that Phoebe shortly turned
out to be, .
By the end of 1907 Phoebe
Snow was a personality definite-
ly established in the American
imagination. There were continu-
ous pleassantries about her ,in
vaudeville, little articles about
her in the magazines, and she
made an occasional appearance
in the changing cartoons of the
day, Her diary, if -anybody had
kept' one for her, would be filled
with somewhat familiar stories,
some of which may have been
true. Like many another vivid
but fictitious character, she had
a heavy fan mail. The railroad
and the advertising agtncy re-
ceived~ in her name 'gifts of
Thanksgiving turkeys,' sample,
of prize-winning tomato pre-
serves, pleas for charity,' .frco
horoscopes, and proposals ' of
marriage from lonesome home-
steaders in North Dakota. She
got several letters from people
named Snow who wondered
whether or not they might c -"lm
relationship. (" . Let's ;ee,
there was Captain Matthias Al-
fred Snow who came to Massa-
chusetts Colony in 1747 in the
brig 'Alciades,' and he had a
daughter called Philomena,
which might have been a mis-
spelling of Phoebe, , . ,") And
there was the customary run of
letters from better identified
crackpots .demanding; money or
threatening exposure,
It Is true • that Phoebe's influ-
ence on contemporary life, aside
from railroad travel, may have
been neither vital nor lasting,

ALFRED SHRUBB, 79, who sailed from Montreal recently in the Ivernla is a former world cham-

trophies of his include the British Cross -Country and the French, Belgian, Australian and New

France Has Its
Teen-age Problem
The French, while often criti-
cal of teenage gang violence in
the U.S., and of the Teddy -boy
outbreaks in London, have long
felt that the problems of their
own juvenile delinquents were
individual, and therefore less
alarming, But when gang terror
erupted last month in Paris and
in the Mediterranean resort of
Bandol, the disillusioned editor
of Le Parisien Libere wrote:
"Now we know the truth: The
street gangs are organizing."
At Bandol,. 'au'.yuuns- 1ii31nue-
ons Noirs" (Black Jackets), fail-
ing ,to find the gang with which
they had planned "un rumble,"
cut a swath through the town
withtheir bicycle chains and
brass knuckles, In the wake of
their forays, they left shattered
glass, smashed furniture, and at
least eighteen injured,
In Paris, as in America, ef-
forts to assess the cause of the
outbursts evoked some familiar
sociological platitudes. Parisian
authorities blamed sensational
movies (the average Blouson
Noir sees six a week), magazine
and newspaper articles glorify-
ing crime, and, finally, the
breakdown of family. life.
Whatever the reason, authori-
ties, church, and press demand-
ed action, One of the most en -
Thaging solutions was offered by
ierry Mautilier, columnist for
the respected, conservative daily
Le Figaro, Send the Blousons
Noirs across the Mediterranean
to help rebuild insurrection -torn
Algeria, Maulnier suggested,

Rescuing World's
Oldest Ship
On her maiden voyage, she
was Europe's newest and larg-
est man-o'-war—a 64 -gun, oak-
en three -master measuring 170
feet from her delicately carved
figurehead to her high, proud
stern 1— and she had all flags
flying as she sailed slowly out of
Stockholm one August. day in
1628. Sweden's young King Gus-
tavus Adolphus, who ruled what
was then a first -ranking military
power, had built the flagship
Vasa as part of his plan to in-
vade Germany. But she had sail-
ed less than a mile when a gust
of wind caught and turned her
over. The ill-construttted ship
carried many of her complement
of 470 down With her,
Gustavus Adolphus's navy
made a few attempts to salvage
some of the Vasa's brass can-
nons, but the ship eventually
was abandoned. Then, three
years ago, an amateur archeolo-
gist named Anders Franzen came
across records of the Vasa and
deductea u,ut oho must. !;till be
lying in the North Stream near
Stockholm, Soundings located
her,
Since then, navy divers have
brought up some 600 relics, in-
cluding handsome wooden stat-
ues of mermaids, fauns, and
dragons. Yet the recovery of
the ship itself involved innum-
erable problems: The vessel lies
buried in 10 feet of mud and
clay some 60 feet beneath the
surface of the water in Stock-
holm's harbor, Work must stop
every time a ship wants to enter
the nearby Stockholm dockyard;
ice halts work on the project
every winter.
But in recent months suction
pumps have slowly burrowed
three tunnels under the Vasa,
and divers have slipped , 4,500
feet of steel hawser through
them, Lase . month, the salvage
team awaited only a favorable
combination of weather and tides
to launch the Vasa on its voyage
back to the surface, The step-
by-step surfacing will take an-
other two years and cost $600,-
000 (raised by private subscrip-
tion), but success will enable
Sweden to turn the Vasa into a
unique naval museum — the
oldest ship in the world,

City That. Casts
A Bright Ray
It Is just possible that Flint,
Mich,, is one of the most remark-
able cities In the whole of Ame-
rica.
If you are discouraged about
the course of human effort on
this planet and in' this country,
sick of reading of struggle, ten-
sion, violence, economic dis-
order, then let Flint cast a
bright ray into the gray gloom,
As reported recently by Ray
Cromley in a series for NEA
Service, Flint is engaged in all
astonishing effective program of
community and individual self-
help that reaches into almost
every corner of the city's life
It is doing this without calling
upon federal 'and state govern-
ments for money. Big money
isn't the thing at all. SchoJI
taxes have' been edged up a
little, and a wealthy man has
tossed in a fair• bundle, and
that's it, The rest of the way it
runs' on the citizens' own steam
and imagination.
The place is fantastic, Kids go
to school early, stay late, and
love it, Parents swarm around
the schools in "off hours" in al-
most as great numbers as the
youngsters,
There are athletic programs,
meetings, dances, studying of
many kinds. Hundreds of men
serve as substitute fathers for
fatherless boys. Organized block
by block under community
leadership, Flint, people repair
and improve their own houses
instead of looking for slum
clearance- funds. Courses train
homeowners in the many house-
hold ' repair and maintenance
jobs.
The school is the hub of the
program. Flint's school buildings
are alive with activity from
morning until late at night, all
the year around, The school
board is the chief overseer of this
sprawling effort,
Automobile factories give the
town a lopsided economy, and
today one out of nine eligible
workers is without a 'job, Flint
has plunged in to help the job-
less train for new types of work.
Citizens work to urge creditors
to" carry the unemployed until
pay checks start again; And they
give them space in schools to
cook, wash, and iron and so on,
when their electricity at home
has been cut off for nonpayment
of bills, Women learn to sew and
cook better to save money.
In the schools themselves, alert
new plans have been devised to
flush out potential scientists from
the crop of youngsters. Effort is
made to spot. talent as early aQ
the second grade,
The details of this great com-
munity enterprise are endlessly
exciting, What is perhaps most
impressive is that in an age when
we see so much negative head -
shaking, the people of Flint are
cheerfully positive. They want to
achieve, they believe they can,
and when they do they are proud
of what they accomplish,
Flint is a stirring example, a
practical example, to every city
in America of what it means to
be really free, self-reliant and
possessed of human dignity.

medal for everybody in the town,
