At about 11;30 last Wednesday even- ing, in the midst of the worst electri- cal storm of the season, the Blyth Fire Department were called to the home of Mr. and Mrs, Ernest Snell, Westfield, when it was discovered that their chopping mill had been struck with lightning. Mr. and Mrs. Snell noticed smoke in the house and at first it was thought it had been struck with lightning, but further investigation proved it io be the mill, situated about 100 yards south of the home. Attempt by Mr. Snell to reach the Fire Department by telephone proved futile, as the lines were put out of order by the storm. He was forced to drive the six miles to the village to summon aid. By the time the Brigade arrived it was an im- possibility to render any help to the mill, and all attention was focused on the surrounding buildings as millions of sparks were carrying in their direc- tion. A close eye was also kept on a 500 gallon gas tank just a few yards from the burning building. Lost in the blaze, estimated at, close to $75,000, were more than 125 tons of grain and concentrates, all mill machinery, including a $4,000 diesel engine, and about 25 pigs, some of them ready for market. Mr. Snell is hoping to rebuild the mill, which was partially covered by insurance, Attempts on Thursday evening and Saturday morning by the Fire Depart- ment to save grain that had fallen to the floor of the mill were to no avail, as much of the machinery was still red hot, making it impossible to get near the grain.

I've tried to be the kind of person a man is supposed to want — sympathetic, intelligent, with a keen sense of humor. I have never had any trouble attracting a man (four have seemed in love with nye) but not one has proposed. "Since I graduated from col- lege I've always held responsible positions where I met men of superior intellect and talents. Those I dated spared no time, ducats or affection, but in about six months something always happens. The man seems bored, and that puts me on edge; I ap- pear at my worst, and soon he joins the group of those I liked and lost. "Don't think I yearn for a knight in armor; I'd settle for a decent, interesting male who is normally affectionate, compat- ible and loyal In return I do not think he would be disap. pointed. I still hold the old ideal of marriages — for keeps. "My father was a brilliant man, and they say 1 take after him. I keep well-informed hut I'm not a blue -stocking. I am certainly more interesting to know than the average woman who can only talk about food and babies and her husband's faults. Can you judge by this brief sketch what lies ahead for me? "Do you believe that destiny controls our lives and struggling to change it is futile? Could it be that I am never to have what most women get? DEPRESSED" Some people believe that what is to be will be, and feel it's useless to flight against pre- destination. I do not. A wo- man these days knows what she wants, and believes she should make herself worthy of it and then use her ingenuity and common sense to pursue the search. Succeding experi- ences with men show her what not to do, and if she honestly admits her mistakes she makes fewer of them, In her eagerness to oblige a man, a girl often yields to his love -making too soon; this is not smart, for he decides he is not the first male in her life and the idea offends his ego. Other women snub a man so thoroughly that he decides she is incapable of emotion; some can decline so graciously that he feels he does not appeal to her but she has too much res- pect for them both to encour- age him, Too many forget that womanliness, a willingness to listen, judicious flattery and a sense of humor are qualities Week's Sew -Thrifty PRINTED PATTERN 4506 SIZES 2-10 /VA Pt& -,144/14 Cool -top dress plus cover — Ideal when the sun plays hide - and -go -seek, No waist scams, no fussy details — quick to sew 'n' iron, Choose crisp cotton, Printed Pattern 4506: Chil- dren's Sizes 2, 4, 6, 8, 10.

Monkey Business In Radio Station The day begins at 5:30 a.m. with the recorded mating call of a bull ape. After that, for 14 hours, Florida radio listeners within range of Jacksonville's WAPE are assaulted by the monotonous beat of rock 'n roll. A three-minute trickle of news every two hours is the only re- lief; every station break is loud with the love-sick ape. The con- tinuous uproar is so hypnotic that few who hear it seem an- xious — or able — to turn it off. Last week one -year-old WAPE finished its fourth month as the top-rated station in a highly competitive nine -station town. Many a listener has been moved to visit WAPE's white - marble building just south of Jacksonville on U.S. Highway 17, to see the source of the' noise. Most come away convinc- ed that more than one odd crit. ter is loose inside. Station Boss Bill Brennan, 38, a hillbilly. talking Harvard -trained electri- cal engineer, directs operations in his bathing suit, but he pre- lers to escape to his plush apart- ment (separated from the office by a silding panel operated by a hidden push-button). There he can toy with his bar and his "Play Pretty," a frosted -glass wall behind which coloured lights flare and flicker in time with the transmitted music. "On low notes," Brennan explains, "the low part of the panel lights up, and so on. When there are chords, the whole wall goes crazy." Disk jockeys go about their labours beside the building's dolphin -shaped pool, which tails off into the lobby. (Late -arriv- ing employees often enter by way of the diving hoard.) Sta- tion ta- tion engineers are given to dressing in an ugly, hairy -ape costume and dashing about with another WAPEster in hot our- s u i 1, brandishing a rifle. On calmer days, a costume ape may stalk out to the highway thumb a ride, Even WAPE's checks are decorated with the simian image — along with a brief message from the keepers: "We will welcome your saving this check as a souvenir nistead of cashing it." In Los Angeles, police search- ed for a man who held up a Salvation Army store, growled at his victim: "I've donated to the Salvation Army quite a hit. Now give me all the bills you have." TWENTY-NINTH BIRTHDAY — Bright-eyed Princess Margaret smiles softly in an official photograph for her 29th birthday. She wears a five -string pearl necklace in this study made at Windsor, England, by Antony Armstrong Jones, HRONICLES iNGERFAR Gvoendoline P. Clark.¢ So the Queen, atter all this time, is going to have another baby.

Locally, our news is much the same as it has been for the last six weeks — hot, humid weathez with no rain at all, This after- noon it turned "quite a hit cooler and rained for about five minutes. It was grand to feel a fresh breeze coming in through the doors and windows. Of course we are bound to have some rain soon • . with the C.N.E. coming on! Did you ever know it to fail? Well, there has to be a first time for everything — and last Saturday night we certainly had it. Partner and I undertook the care of Ross and his five months' old brother while Bob and Joy had anevening out. They left the boys here about five o'clock and said it might be midnight before they got home. That was all right with us, five grandsons having given us plenty of experience with baby sitting. Ross was no trouble at all, nor was the baby up to seven -thirty. At that time I was feeding him when he sud- denly started to yell. I went through the usual procedure of burping, holding him against my shoulder, or turning him over on his tummy. But still he yelled, I put him in his bug- gy and walked him along the road. He simmered down a bit but started up again every time I stopped walking. However, it was getting late so I came back to the house. That made things worse. His crying woke Ross up three time but fortunately he didn't make it a duet. In- stead he got interested in our record -radio and took all the knobs off. Partner offered to do this and that to help quieten the baby. Finally 1 said, "Well, all right, I'll put him in his buggy again and you can take him for another walk." He did just that and by ten o'clock the baby was asleep. We were afraid he would wake up if we brought him into the house again ro Partner took baby, buggy and all into the garage and stayed out there with him. In the mean- time I was just about all in and had to lle down for awhile. Two and a half hours of solid yelling was more than I could take. And the reason for all the fuss? Well, the baby had had a needle the day before and 1 imagine it was some sort of re action that was bothering him. His arin was quite inflamed anyway. Generally he is the happiest little soul and easy to look after, But as I say there has to be a first time — and under the circumstances I hope it will be the last such occa- sion. Next time we do any baby- sitting I'll inquire if they have been given any needles recently, Another reason for the trouble might be either that the baby is too young or I am too old for us to understand and ac. cept each other properly. 13e that as it may I spent most of the next day recuperating — with the help of a mild seda- tive! We ran into a dif:erent situ- ation with Taffy. Instead of making too much noise he was making too little, For nearly a week he practically lost his bark. A squeaky little noise was the best he could do. Either he had an attack of laryngitis or a cricket got stuck in his throat. He wasn't sick and didn't miss a meal so I didn't take him to the vet, He has quite recover- ed but I am still wondering what was wrong. Would any of my readers like to help me make a decision? I ani intrigued with the 'des- cription of "F.M." radios. It all sounds too good to be true, Is it actually possible that an "F. M." set operates without com- mercials? And are the pro- grammes such that one would feel justified in the extra out- lay — with a good radio al- ready in the house, I imagine one would still need an ordin- ary radio anyway — for the news and cammentaries. Natur- ally we couldn't do without Gordon Sinclair and Jack Den - nett. Sometimes we get hop- ping mad at Sinclair but we still continue listening. to him. The same applies to television. We often get fed up with the pru- grammes but yet we wouldn't do without it. "Tabloid" used to be one of our favorite feat- ure programmes but now Joyre Davidson seems to have lost much of her sparkle and her laugh sounds forced and un- natural. Percy, of course, is still tops in our estimation If it were not for him ' the programme would often fall flat on its face. STOP PRESS NEWS. Our tax bill has just come in. $40 higher than last year.

Seized by Newark detectives for smashing a store window and taking a mannikin clad in a wedding dress, a young man ex- plained he had only done so be- cause he wanted his bride-to-be to be attired in proper raiment when their nupital knot was tied, ISSUE 30 — 1959 A Real Genius of Perfection Josef Haydn (1732-1809) was a genius of perfection in music. He exemplified the spirit al the eighteenth century in the charm, orderliness, and simple poetry that were the virtues of the age. His own life was serene and unperturbed by tragedy, He had a difficult childhood in the lit. tle town of Rohrau in lower Austria where he was born, but soon he was isent to Vienna, where he applied himself to earnest study under favorable circumstances. Still as a young man, he was fortunate In se- curing a position as music di- rector to Prince Esterhazy in EIsenstadt, There he composed some of his greatest symphon- ies, string quartets, and also a series of pieces for the bary- ton, a now obsolete bass viol, a string instrument favored by Prince Esterhazy, who played on it himself. Haydn is popularly known as the Father a! the Symphony. Cautious musicologists are un- willing to support this designa- tion, for it is seldom possible to establish a priority on any mu- sical form, and there were sym- phonies written before Haydn, But there is no doubt that Haydn gave the firm outline to the classical symphony in sev- eral movements that became the model for composers of a later day, In chamber music, Haydn's historical role is great, He cre- ated the string quartet, which has the same formal consisten- cy as a symphony. Haydn's string quartets show an amaz- ing development of counterpoint; like his symphonies, they be- came the models emulated by his successors. Haydn was so prolific that he himself could not remember how many symphonies he wrote and the catalogue that he com- piled is very incomplete. As a result, musicologists until this day cannot agree on the authen- ticity of numerous works at. tributed to Haydn. One of the items recently taken off the. Haydn list is the celebrated "Toy Symphony," the score at whi•:h includes a trumpet, a drum, a wristle, a triangle, a quail, and a cuckoo. It now seems certain that the work was written by Mozart's father, possibly in col- laboration' with Haydn's brother. Michael. Mastery and supreme profes- sionalism combined in Haydn with gentle humor. When Prince Esterhazy made up his mind to disband his private orchestra, Haydn accepted the princely de - SALLY'S SALLIES "But my dream boat usually gets lost somewhere, some• how," cislon with regret, and as a .final contribution, composed and performed the "Farewell Sym- phony," According to the in- structions in the score, the mu- sicians left; one by one, after completing their parts, until only the conductor remained 'in the stage, blew out the candle, and departed. Prince Esterhacy was touched by this spectacle, and decided to retain the or- chestra, Haydn was an eminently practical man. Like most com- posers of his day, he wrote mu- sic to order. Such was • the per- fection of his technique that he never had to wait for inspir- ation to come, and the quality of his music was uniformly high. One of Haydn's commissions was the composition a! the Austrian national hymn, which remained in force until the fall of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, By Nicolas Slominsky in the Chris- tian Science Monitor.

Baby Seal That Thinks He's Human When skin diver Bill Cheeks dripped up out of Puget Sound one recent afternoon, he thought. he heard another pair of flip. pers slapping the sand behind him. Pushing fogged goggles over a tanned forehead and pounding the water from his ears, he looked back; then down, He was right, Waddling in his tracks was a baby harbor seal - a sleek, roly-poly infant with plaintive eyes, incongruous mustache, and a patent conviction that it was a person closely related to Cheeks. Unable to coax it back to the water, Cheeks drove the foundling down the Washington shore to the Seattle Aqua Di. vers Club, where it was promtly christened Scuba (short for "s e 1 - contained underwater breathing apparatus") and adopted as club mascot, Not so promptly was Scuba accepted in a foster home. Lots of the men at the club wanted it, but somehow wives kept ob- jecting to a seal that thought It was a child. Most of them, In the skin-diving set, already had their hands full with children who thought they were seals. But cast month, after some whimpering days of institution. al care and force-feeding by a veterinarain, Scuba was firmly established in the skin-diving family of Glen and Peggy Bris- tow of Bellevue, just across Lake Washington from Seattle; and more certain than ever that it was human. It had, it was convinced, three foster brothers - Tim, 14; Ter. ry, 10, and Mike Bristow, 7 - and, for a pet, it had a beagle named Zeke with whom it liked to play on the Bristow lawn. Scuba despises water; he flipped right out of a wading pool that the Bristows gave him. (Turned loose offshore for an enforced daily swim, he can tow the other Bristow chit. dren or Bristow, himself, by an improyised harness. But his destination is always the near- est beach.) He spurned an un. disguised fish diet, but thrives on a formula of pulverized, tin- ned salmon in goat's milk (he tips the scale at 21 pounds, a gain of 5 in a week). The Bristows haven't the re• motest idea of Scuba's sex - "I am not a seal," says Bristow -but a member of the family can't be called "it"; so they arbitrarily made Scuba a male. "Scuba thinks my husband is his mother," Mrs. Bristow says. "I just baby-sit during the day until Glen comes home." How does it feel to be a seal - sitter? "It's a new experience," says Peggy Bristow. "He's a nui- sance. He's a baby, and you have to squirt him down every so often. He pnly eats four times a day now, it's true; but we have to stay up till 11 at night for that last feeding." What future is there for a seal who thinks he's a person? "I read a book that said a fully grown harbor seal weight between 150 and 220 pounds and eats about 30 pounds of fish a day," Bristow grimace,!. "I can't afford that; so when the going gets tough, I'll have to give him to the Woodland Park Zoo." . There, among others of his species, . Scuba m a y finally learn that he is a seal, not a human. He might possibly even learn that he is a she. LIVED TO SEE THE PiCTURE Ace German racing driver, Hans Hermann crouches on the pavement as his racing car hurtles through the air in the West Berlin Grand Prix race, He was only slightly injured, but in a preliminary race the day before, French racing great Jean Behra was killed, Cars Are Really To Ride In! As automobile models for 1960 roll into the showrooms there is going to be an en- tirely new focus of interest. The breathless question will not be which company can adver- tise the highest -horsepower gas - burner, the flashiest fishtails or the most chrome. Curiosity in- stead will center on the new small cars which are being en- tered in competition by motor- dom's Big Three. For once the mammoths of the industry will not be lead- ing; they will be following where two independents and some twoscore foreign manu- facturers have shown a waiting market to be. They will be ack- nowledging that after all a sig- nificant segment of American motorcar buyers- are interested in economy and functionalism; that Many purchasers want transportation, not metal plum- age to outstrut their neighbors. Business Week magazine counts this change of trend as one of five major turning points in the half -century of the auto- mobile industry. It quotes one researcher's estimate that po- tential compact car buyers con- stitute about one-fourth of the 1960 market in the United States. A study by U.S. News & World Report brings out the points that typical buyers of economy cars already on the American market average some- what higher income than buyers of the big selling Chevrolet, Ford, and Plymouth, that they include a more than average number of college-educated people, that most are families with children and many are two -car families. An important change in at- titutde toward consumer tastes has taken place since 1955. This year Detroit will not just be saying, "Here's your car; get out and sell it."

Space Grabber Is Baffled One of the wiliest space grab- bers ever to bamboozle an edi- tor, New York Press -agent Jim Moran, 51, has found a needle in a haystack (after 82 hr. and 35 min,), hatched an ostrich egg (19 days on the nest), sold an icebox to an Eskimo and two snow-blind fleas to Paramount (for use under klieg lights), to pitch himself or a client into the newspapers. Last month Mor- an was landing in print again, on a coast-to-coast search for "the happiest girl in America - a girl as happy as a Lark." His client: Studebr,ker's Lark But in Minneapolis Moran's bird failed to sing. Minneapolis Tribune City Editor Robert T. Smith puckishly printed a straight-faced story that ran through a whole catalogue of cars without uP;ng the one word that Moran was trying to get into print - Lark. Smith's story: "Jim Moran is a world -re- nown rambler. "In his many travels as a pressagent, he has been known to ford a river or brave locali- - ties where the mercury knows no bounds in order to plant a • sponsor's name. "Moran is well known in Cad- illac and Pontiac, Mich., and in the imperial palaces of the Ori- ent. On the other hand, he has never been in Buyck or Austin, Minn. "He has pulled many a dodge, but in general he is known in the trade as being solid as Ply- mouth Rock, "Moran has a beard like Lin- coln that gives many people the willies. He is built in somewhat Goliath proportions and has the eye of an explorer, like De Soto. "Moran was in Minneapolis promoting a contest to find 'The Happiest Girl in America' . The winner will receive a screen test and a new automobile, the maker of which is his sponsor.'' In St, Ann, Mo., a book titled Ten Days to a Successful Me- mory was returned ten months overdue to a branch of the St. Louis County Library with a note: "I just forgot all about having it." Jockey In A Hurry He comes whooping and whip-. ping out of the starting gate, a pale -faced kid who fights for the lead right at the start so that no challenger will spoil his view of the pot of gold waiting at the finish line. His body high and forward, weight over the horse's withers, boots in two of the shortest stirrups in racing, he is a jockey in a hurry, He is strong enough to ride all after- noon, and he applies the meas- ure of cold cash, not sentiment, to his work. Shrugs Jockey Bob Ussery (rhymes with fuss-ery) "If I ride in the Kentucky Der- by, I want a real shot at win- ning. Otherwise, I'd rather ride six mocnts at Belmont," This frankly quantitative ap- roach to riding is paying off handsomely this season for Rob- ert Nelson ("Okie") Ussery, 23, who has risen from a dust -eater generally back in the pack of national rankings, as tabulated by the fact-finding Morning Tel- egraph, until he stands second only to the great Willie Shoe- maker in booting home winners (224 v. 221) and total purses ($1,863,049 v. $1,128,474). It mat- ters little to Ussery that he has had to ride 143 nior'e races than Shoemaker to get his total, or that he has never won a major stakes event. He is often willing to resort to lackluster hayburn- ers to fill out an afternoon's work: "Those stiffs will win now and then." Bob Ussery learned to ride back home in Vian, Okla., a lit- tle farming town (green beans, cotton, corn) near the Arkansas border. His father was a clerk in the general store, had five children, a pump and an out- house; his grandfather had a big black mare named Kate. When he was seven and weigh- ed just 55 lbs., Ussery was clat- tering across the Oklahoma flat- land, perched like a raisin on the bare back of Kate, and celebrat- ing a .vin over other mounted kids by riding straight into a water hole, Kate and all, Bob Ussery early learned the value of a buck. Says he: "I al- ways wanted to hoe cotton - those guys got' $3 a day. But I wasn't big enough." So Ussery turned instead to picking spin- ach (100 for every 20 lbs.), By seventh grade, he knew where easier money lay; "I couldn't ride and go to school too. I quit school." Sprinting quarter horses over dirt tracks around the South- west, Ussery learned to get a horse away fast at the start, By 16 he was ready for the thor- oughbreds, drove his first mount to victory in the 1951 Thanks- giving Handicap in New Orleans. Within months Ussery was a big-time jockey, with a reputa- tion as a slasher who bulled his way through the field like a full- back, Ussery used the whip so much that some jockeys hated to mount the horse he had rid- den because the animal tended to sulk. Not until last year, when he was set down for 30 days for whacking Eddie Arc- aro's horse across the nose at Jamaica, did he finally realize that there is 'more to racing than muscle. Ussery still whips hard (cracks one jockey: "They run for Shoemaker because they like to; they run for Ussery be- cause they have to"), but he now uses his head as well. Says ven- erable Trainer Jim Fitzsimmons: "The boy picks his holes right, and he doesn't get himself jam- med up in the pockets, He'll be a great one if he doesn't get oversatisfied." Ussery has salted away $100,- 000 in blue chip stocks, has earned more than $100,000 this year. At Saratoga last month, Ussery hunted for a winner so zealously that he rode in ten out of 14 races before finally cross- ing the finish line in front. Sums up.Arcaro: "He'r a hungry kid." Q.

Mrs. George ilamilton celebrated her 85th birthday recently and is en- joying good health. She is the oldest living person that was born in the vil- lage of Auburn. She was before her marriage, Isabelle Wilson, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. W. D. Wilson and attended school at U.S.S. No, 5, Mullett. She is a member of St, Mark's Anglican Church and the Wo- men's Guild and is also a charter member of the Auburn, Women's In- stitute. Site was married to Mr. George Ilamilton who passed away 10 years ago, and has • one son, Thomas, and 7 grandchildren, and 14 great grandchildren. Mrs. Hamilton has a wonderful memory and recalls their trip to the Yukon .early in 1900, when the gold rush days were o.t, She ca!d that the rush to the Yukon is quite different today than it was when her late husband got the gold fever in 1898. Ile learned that Duncan Mathe- son had come from Montreal and was visiting his relatives in Goderich. George learned from Duncan that he could join the same company in Mon- treal and go with them. Iie left here about the middle of March for Mon- treal where 8 other gold seekers await- ed him. Before leaving J. D. Ander- son the leader of the expedition, drew up an agreement binding all to remain together for 0 months. After outfit- ting at Montreal the party journeyed to Edmonton where they completed their purchases, and then proce:ded down the Athabaska to the Athabaska Landing. Their 12 tons of provisions were taken this far by teams., Ilere George Hamilton became a ship car- penter and from lumber purchased from the Hudson Bay Co., built 3 stur- dy flat-bottomed boats, each 21 feet long with an 8 foot beam and 3 feet deep. They had pointed bows and square sterns and each was equipped with a mast and a sail. The party then journeyed down the Athabaska river, and through the Athabaska Lake, the Slave River, to the Great Slave Lake. Iters at Hoy River the voyagers paus- ed long enough to build a church for the Anglican missionary which was still used a few years ago, The Arctic circle was crossed but the party con- tinued clown stream until within about 90 miles of the mouth of the MacKen- zie River and the Arctic Ocean. There they entered the Peel River going eastward and proceeding up- ward toward the height of land on top of the Rockies which separated them from the Yukon River, They travelled up the Peel river for 15 miles, then through the Willow and Longstick Riv- ers. After 10 days down stream the voy- agers came to the mouth of Old Crow River on October 3rd and as ice was beginning to form it was decided to stake camp on a well wooded island where the abundance of lumber would provide logs for building a cabin, Here the long winter in the Arctic was passed in comparative comfort and all enjoyed good health hut Duncan Matheson who had an attack of acute indigcston. The time was spent hunt- ing game and in prospecting for gold, but on only one occasion did any yel- low dust appear in the pan. Mr. Ilam- ilton had taken with him his violin which helped to pass away many pleasant hours. The trip down the Porcupine river to the Yukon was passed without a mishap. Among the chief objects of interest were 75 miles of Ramparts, highwalls of rocks which Nature has painted and coloured. One form in particular being an excellent repre- sentation of an olid man and woman at Fort Yukon which i; 401) miles north of Dawson, The party broke up divided the supplies, and from here each one paid for his own transporta- tion up to Dawson by Wainer. ner. 'Piny arrived there in June, which was 15 miles after starting from Mo:itreal, ihuncan Mattison again became crit- ically 111 at Circle city where he dial and seas buried after undergoing an aaeraton. The late Mr. lia._i?!on pt• ways paid high respect to his memory aid claimed that he was the best man in the party. His seamanship, Varner! from his experiences ns n sr!' •"• in Goderich helped out on 'tidily a is y cue occasion, He often rented that the Canadians going into n:+"snn in the Party days were handicapped by not . having any experiences in plat——i . ing. Many Americans who came from California were used to placer mining which followed the rush to that country • in 1543 and fared much better than Severe Storm -A severe electrical storm hit this community last Wednesday evening.

Royal Water Staggers Brooklyn Alone, neither hydrochloric nor nitric acid will dissolve the "noble metals" gold and plat- inum, but a mixture of the two will, So to this potent corrosive the medieval alchemists gave the name aqua regia — royal water. Last month in Brooklyn, fumes from the royal water knocked out scores of factory workers and firemen, left sev- eral in hospitals, threatened with severe aftereffects. In the Williamsburg section, an American Cyanamid Co, tank truck backed up to the Radio Receptor Co.'s plant (which makes electronic equipment) to deliver 500 gallons of nitric acid. Driver Benjamin Sidla hooked up his hose to a pipe indicated by employees, started pumping. After a few minutes, a man rushed up from the basement yelled to Sidle: "You'd better stop. The fumes are terrible down there," Somehow the nit- ric acid had been diverted into a 3,000 -gallon tank containing hydrochloric. Result: royal water, which was already be. ginning to dissolve the tank's rubber lining, eating away a flange where the pipe entered, and emitting noxious fumes. Radio Receptor employees staggered to the street, coughing and choking, their eyes burning. Some collapsed, some vomited. Emergency squads gave oxygen, took dozens of workers to four hospitals; 18 were kept over- night, and some longer. Assist- ant Deputy Fire Chief Walter C. Wocd cleared ,p two -block area around the plant, kept resi- dents out until 3 a.m., when ha thought it was safe, Meanwhile, Wocd and his ' firemen went into the basement tank room, tried to stop the leak with a new flange. When the air cylinders for their masks were empty and they carne up to the street to change them, their faces and necks showed bright red acid burns; 38 were elected, one had to be hospital- ized. Because aqua regia attacks pipes and pumps so avidly, it took three days to find resist- ant equipment to load it into a tank truck for neutralization and disposal in New Jersey. At week's end, Chief Wood and six firemen fell sick. Doc- tors at first feared a danger- ous late reaction to the fumes, which can cause suffocation, rated the men lucky that thi, did not develop, At A Desert Well 23 August I woke to the soli- tary piping of a sandpartridge hidden somewhere in the twi- light among rocks surrounding the water. It was at this well that I had first met Suliman two years before. When I arrived there with Auda and Ali, I didn't notice him at first for he was sitting with three or four others in the shade a hundred yards away. Auda and Ali had seen them no doubt, for some camels that must have belonged to them had just been watered and were standing listlessly near the well, Their full skins too, about ten of them, were on the ground by the wellshaft, swollen out like animals lying on their backs with their legs up in the air.. . At the well itself a little girl less than ten years of age had just finished watering some sheep and goats. She picked up her stick and going to her own amen skin she said to Ali, "Help DUTCH TREAT — The Nether- lands through association, the windmill, above, is actually in Outwood, Surrey, England. Built in 1665, it is perhaps the old- est working mill in Britain, me to lift it up," As he did so, she placed its rope across her forehead a n d bent forward slightly to the weight on her back, She walked confidently off behind her flock, her long frilled dress swinging out in graceful folds at each step above her little bare feet. You would thinlc the keys of the desert were hanging from the broad cloth belt that encircled her waist. As she got farther away, not much higher than the sheep and goats ahead of her, the shallow gorge down which she passed seemed deeper than it was, Only after we had finished watering our camels and had filled our skins did Suliman come forward and greet us. He spoke in low tones to Auda. , All the time he and Auda were speaking almost inaudibly, and there was no movement from the other men in the shade or the women still watching us just above. What was this strange yet typical silence by the well? Was it due to the almost sacred presence of the water there, ac- centuated as it was by the muf- fled sound the water itself made as it was poured into the skins at this meeting -place of men whose thoughts were still intent on their long journey? , , It was still early in the morn- ing with the sandgrouse calling around us when we set out again, moving southwards along the cleared -back Roman road, , , Its proximity to the fort seems to preserve some of the human atmosphere of the past, as if its level stretch had been the strol- ling -ground of the men who lived there. The calling sand - grouse, that were here before the Romans came and saw them finally go, do not destroy that atmosphere but surround it with the soft desert colour that is their own,—From "The Red Sea Mountains of Egypt," by L.

Barclay Warren B.A., ILD God's Concern for All People Jonah 3:1-2, 10; 4:1.11, Memory Selection: The Lord is good to all: and his tender mer- cies are over all his works. Psalm 145:9. Anyone who refuses to be- lieve that God performed mire - des will stumble Aver the boolf of Jonah, Surely the Creator of this universe with all its won- ders down to those of the tiny atom has it in his power and right to prepare a fish to take a runaway prophet for a sub- marine ride. Jesus referred to the incident as a type of his own death and resurrection, say- ing, "As Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth," Mat- thew 12:40. The main lesson of the Book of Jonah is God's concern for all people despite the stubborn selfiish nationalism of some of his people, Jonah was a Jew and rejoiced when it was his privi- lege to predict that the borders of Israel would be extended from the entering of Hamath to the sea of the plain. 2 Kings 14:25. The prophecy was fulfilled in the reign of Jeroboam the son of Joash, But when Jonah was commissioned to take God's message to Nineveh, the capital of the Assyrian Empire, at whose hand Israel had suffered much, Jonah fled. What is more of a nuisance than a backslidden preacher? People are troubled at his presence. He appears as a contradiction of God and His holy purposes, But though Jonah fled from Israel he couldn't hide from God, There in the stomach of the fish he prayed and made his vows, The fish brought him up, doubtless glad to he rid of him, But Jonah was still a selfiish nationalist, When the people re- pented at the preaching of Jonah, in fasting and prayer, God for- gave there and spared the city. Then Jonah pouted. He had sus- pected this might happen, "For," said he, "I knew that thou are a gracious God and slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repentest thee of the evil." He wanted to die, God was patient with Jonah. When Jonah was angry because a worm destroyed the gourd that had provided shade God pointed out the ridi- culousness of his selfishness say- ing, "Thou hast had pity on the gourd, for which thou hast not laboured, neither madest it grow; which came up in a night, and perished in a night: and should not I spare Nineveh, that great city, wherein are more than sixscore thousand persons that cannot discern between their right hand and their left hand; and also much cattle?" A great city indeed with so many little children. God cares for A11 peo- ple. DOUBLE TAKE — Two hands are needed to drive out the thirst during a recent heat spell in Moscow.

Before you start on your job of pickling peaches, be sure you have high-grade cider or white distilled vinegar of 40 to 60 per cent grain strength (4-6 per cent acid,) This information should be printed on the label, Have your spices fresh and of the best quality. Tie the spices in a cloth so you can remove them before the pickles are put in jars. If left too long, spices cause pickles to be dark and strong flavored. Clingstone peaches are best for pickling, but freestones may be used. Select peaches of uniform size if possible. a a* PEACII PICKLES 24 peaches, hard -ripe 5-6 cups sugar 1 piece ginger root 2 sticks cinnamon 1 tablespoon allspice 1 tablespoon cloves 3 cups vinegar Wash, drain, and peel the hard -ripe peaches. Add 2 cups sugar, spices (tied in hag), 2 cups water to vinegar. Boil un- til sugar dissolves. Add 1 layer peaches; simmer until hot through, then remove from syrup, Repeat. When all peaches are heated, bring syrup to boil- ing point, Pour over peaches. Let stand 3-4 hours, Drain syrup into kettle; add 2 cups sugar. Boil until sugar dissolves, Cool, Add peaches. Let stand 12-24 hours in a cool place, Pack peaches into hot jars. Add re- maining sugar to syrup, Boil un- til sugar dissolves. Pour, boiling hot, over peaches, Process pints and quarts 10 minutes in boil- ing -water bath, Note: The purpose of adding sugar in small amounts is to avoid shriveling. * 4 When making butters, con- serves, jams, marmalades, and jellies, imagination is an im- portant ingredient. Natural flav- or of fruits can be changed or emphasized by adding a tiny pinch of salt, a small amount of spice, extract, orange peel, lemon juice, etc. Or the amount or kind of spices called for in any recipe can be changed to suit your own taste — and in this way you make the recipe your very own. A few things you want to re- member in preparing fruit in any of these ways are: Use hard -ripe fruit of good flavor. Weigh or measure after prepar- ing it. The general rule is three- quarters as much sugar as' pre- pared fruit — except for pre- serves, which usually take the same amount, Cook in small batches. Do not double recipes, Boil rapidly after sugar dis- solves. 4 h, PEACH CONSERVE 7 cups chopped peaches 1 orange 5 cups sugar teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon ginger 1/2 cup blanched almonds Wash, drain, scald, peel, chop, and measure peaches.

For Granville, whose sinus trouble makes it all but impos- sible for him actually to savor his own products, it is simply more evidence ,that success and fun go hand -in- hand. A onetime busine:; consultant, Granville wearied of the New York grind in 1946, tore up his. commuter's ticket, and joined forces with another exurbanite named N, Lee Swartout to set up Angelique on the village square in Wilton, Conn. The pair kicked in $4,000 apiece, picked up their first scent (Black Satin) from a perfume chemist, One of Granville's first moves was to install a fireman's pole between the first and second floor of the plant, simply, as Granville ex- plains, "because I like fire poles." Personnel relations have since taken on the aspect of a lemon, then prepare the follow- ing batter: 3/4 cup of sugar creamed with 3 tablespoons but- ter, half a cup of milk, a cup of sifted flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Spread this batter smoothly and carefully over the berries: it will be thin, but that's the way it should be, Sprinkle over the batter the following mixture: 1/2 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon cornstarch — and mix the cornstarch into the sugar thoroughly so that it will not lump. Then pour over all a cup of boiling water, or possibly a scant cup if your berries look like the very juicy type. Cook for 45-50 minutes at 400° F. to start, but lower the heat a little toward the end if the top browns a lot, as it prob- ably will, The juice goes to the bottom and thickens slightly, the cake rises and becomes crusty on top, Marx Brothers movie, On slow days Granville may lead em- ployees out to weed the company garden; on a particularly hecti afternoon, he often strides Into the factory proclaiming: "Tim for a party!" Thereupon, h pops highballs and canapes o 'conveyor belts normally used,fol' packaging perfumes, leads jam sessions as 'workers belt it out o a piano, sax, and drums (if a employee feels out of sorts af- terward Granville will take hint for a sobering spin on his Lam; bretta scooter), Understandably, Angelique ha a waiting list of more than 50 job applicants, even at its new, larger plant opened in 1957, wher 75 employees turn out a full line of perfumes, colognes, and I bath powders. Since the plant, which employees jovially call "the skunk works," has only one floor, Granville was forced to abandon the fire pole, But he has found an outlet for his elfin urge by installing a large, impressively lettered sign over the main entrance reading: "What the heck • are you 'look- ing up here for?" Fortunately for his bookkeep- er's sanity, Granville has shown as much flair for titillating the public as he has for entertaining his employes, His first big stunt (in 1948) was to seed clouds over the city of Bridgeport with Black Satin perfume and dry ice, producing scented snow, As a topper,• in 1954, he spattered Paris itself with scented rain. The resulting publicity sent An- gelique's sales rising like wind- borne vapors (so much so, that Swartout was able to retire at 41 five years ago). • When visiting perfume buyers are scheduled to drop in to look over the line, Granville sets up a miniature betting room on the plant floor, complete with het board and employees in green eyeshades. Granville escorts the buyers through the factory, hap- pily pointing out his profitable "bookmaking" sideline, "Some buyers have frozen up and stamped away," recalls Granville. "But most of thele get a laugh out of the gag. Some even step up their orders," From NEWSWEEK In Berrien County, Go,, a moonshiners' ancient auto, capa- ble of making a 147-m.p.h. get- away with a load of 200 gallons of corn liquor, was bought at au- ction by County Sheriff Walter Gaskins, who will use it to chase moonshiners.

Wild Creatures Come To The Call The art of calling wild crea- tures is almost as old as hunt- ing itself, but it has developed greatly through the years, Beckoning to high -flying ducks and geese with a call has been popular sport through countless generations, Crow hunting long has been spiced with the flavor of enticing the wary black crit- ters within gunshot range through use of a call, What would moose hunting be with- out the time-honored bark - bugle? Even calling predators is noth- ing new. Martin Burnham of Marble Falls, Texas, was suc- cessfully calling foxes and wolves more than fifty years ago, sucking wind through compress- ed lips to imitate the high-pitch- ed squeal of a crippled rabbit, Today animal callers are learning new things about the sport, Murry Burnham, one of the famous Burnham brothers, claims just about any wild ani- mal can be called if its habits are studied thoroughly, Different animals react in dif- derent ways to various calls. Some are lured with the promise of an easy meal; others imagine they are courting a female. At times it seems that some animals come looking more out of curI- osity than anything else. The basic call for predators is the dying rabbit cry. It will at- tract any meat -hungry predator, from hawks and owls to foxes and coyotes. In Mexico last year the Burnham brothers, Murry and Winston, actually got a mountain lion to answer a call. Imitating the cluck of a love- sick turkey hen to attract super - sly gobblers is a cherished game of chance in Southern states where the wild turkey hunting comes during the spring mating season. I once knew an old-timer who could call quail by pushing his tongue against his palate and cooing like -a bobwhite. The Burnhams had a black bear answer a call in Canada last spring, probably out of curiosity. Jackrabbits frequently will come bounding to investigate when they hear the rabbit -squeal call. In Noblestown, Pa., Philip Mager, suspected of stealing $75 from a post office, was discover- ed in the posse that was hunting him.

It was written by. Harlan Trott and ap- peared in the Christian Science Monitor, « « 4 Marie Antoinette's classic po- litical faux pas, "Let them eat cake," isn't such a bad idea after all. In fact, it seems to sum up a policy Northwest wheat grow- ers are successfully pursuing to expand their Far Eastern mar- ket. Growers in Oregon and Washington have been, working for some time to persuade Ja- pan and India to augment if not supplant their rice -eating habits with a big helping of bread, macaroni, cakes and pies. * * 4 Now they are intensifying their efforts to expand these markets through closer regional cooperation. And the drive to substitute wheat for rice in the diet of their trans -Pacific neigh- bours is being accelerated by the newly formed Western •Wheat Associates, U.S.A., Inc. Its 12 -man board of directors includes t w o representatives from each of the wheat grow- ers' associations in Oregon, Wa- shington, and Idaho. . « * * Montana is not included even though it is a Northwest state. This has an economic explana- tion. The 100 million bushels of premium wheat Montana dumps into the nation's breadbasket overy year grows on the eastern side of the Continental Divide. Therefore, it is said, Montana wheat growers are not in the same tough railroad -rate bind as their three western - neigh- bours, * « * The traditionally unfavour- able railroad -rate situation long ago turned Northwest'' wheat growers to the Far East market, to which cheap ocean freighters can carry surplus wheat, 7.

Al- ready they have accomplished a great deal in the way of self- help. In fact, Dr. D. D. Hill, head of the Farm Crops De- partment at Oregon State Col- lege, thinks that perhaps in some ways, "the modern wheat growers have outdone their predecessors of 50 or 100 years ago," This is lofty praise for the much -maligned beneficiaries of today's government farm subsi- dies. « * * Before the acreage allotment program was put in effect, the Pa cif i c Northwest produced ab out 150 million bushels of wheat a year on its high eastern plains. Under the allotment pro- gram, its production now is only about 120 million. bushels. Since World War II, exports have averaged nearly 70 per cent of the Northwest's output, as com- pared to 34 per cent for the rest of the nation. As far back as 1949, Oregon S tate Wheat Commission sent a team on a fast boat to the Far East to study ways to expand this mar- ket. * * * The first step in this direction was to increase consumption of wheat foods in rice -eating areas in Asia. The Oregon commission and the Millers' National Federation teamed up on a project at the Women's Christian College ` at Madras, India, in 1952 to teach the nutritional values of wheat foods to people who had stradi- tionally eaten rice instead of cake, In fact, they had eaten so little else than rice, they were said to be [effected by malnutri- tion. WIth the aid of funds supplied by the Millers' Federation and the State of Oregon, the Direc- tor of Agriculture in the State of Madras succeeded in having wheat accepted as a Supple- mental food to rice. * « * . Then, with the enactment of the 1954 farm bill, Richard K. Baum, now executive vice-presi- dent of the Northwest Wheat Associates; Earl Pollack, grain marketing specialist of the United States Foreign Agricul- tural Service; and Gordon Boals of the Millers' Federation toured the Orient to widen their search for markets. This time, their hands were strengthened by the 1954 act which removed the ob- stacle to increased trade, namely a shortage of dollars. « « « Thus, when Japan carte into the market, the "let -them -eat - wheat" program took on a big, new dimension. Spokane's Joe Spiruta, then of the Oregon Wheat League, got a grain ex- hibit set up at Osaka's MU World Trade Fair. Ile had three Japanese bakers working as hard as they could every day, baking - cake! « « « Next to the Emperor, Betty Crocker was on her way to being Japan's national here. That is to say, they started out with American cake mixes. Then Strange Harvest Of Black Beetles Deep in the dark forests of Baden, Germany, intently solemn bands of men, boys, and women gathered in circles around the towering fir trees. At the base of the trees, they spread cotton sheets, Then they carefully stroked the trunks and branches with long -handled, soft brushes. Down on the sheets tumbled a strange harvest: Small, shiny, black beetles called Laricobius erichsonii, Only a few weeks after they were caught, 20,000 of the Baden beetles, shipped by air in screened boxes, were re- leased in the woods north of Bangor, Maine. To the participants in the strange rites at Baden last spring each of. the beetles was woth 10 cents. To the U.S, For- est Service which was footing the bill, the insects seemed worth every penny. If they do their job well, the Forest Serv- ice explained re c e n t 1 y, they may save the United States more than a billion dollars, the value of the nation's fir stands which are now threatened by some woolly little aphids no bigger than a sharpened pencil point. A hungry colony of the aphids, sucking on a fir tree's resinous sap, can kill it in two years. One of the few ways to stop this costly destruction is the Baden beetle, ,as voracious a feeder on aphids as the aphids are feeders on trees. What the Forest Service hopes to do is to restore the balance of nature -for the woolly bal- sam aphid is not a native Amer- ican, Accidentally brought to this continent from Europe at the turn of the century, it was quick - HOLD IT - 'Watch the birdie" is more than a photographer's catchword when lensman Joe Campiglia aims his camera. Pet baby mockingbird strings along. they got 'fancy. They started doing culinary handsprings with scones, jelly rolls, and you - name -it - so long as it has wheat. * * * A training center for wheat - flour bakers is now located at the Japan Institute of Baking in Tokyo. To encourage the pur- chase of United States wheat, Oregon became a sponsor of Japan's annual golf tournament by putting up the American Wheat Cup. Out of these self-help con- tacts came visits by Japanese officials to study American wheat - handling and baking methods. They are still coming. ly spread by the wind through pulpwood stands in New England and Eastern Canada. In 1954, it was found in 800,000 acres of lumber -producing forests in Ore- gon and Washington, where by now it has sucked to death trees worth $21 million, And, because the aphid snuggles deep under the heavy fir branches, aerial spraying has proved useless. Canadian forestry experts get the credit for finding a weapon against the aphids. Told by Eu- ropean entomologists a few years ago that the aphids are harmless at home because other insects keep them in check, the Canadian Forest Biology Division started importing various preda- tors for experimental study. Only insects which dine solely on aphids -and so cannot be- come pests themselves - were considered. The Baden beetles are one of the most recent Canadian dis- coveries, and look especially good to the 'U.S. Forest Service because of the ease with which they can be collected, shipped, and released, "All you have to do," explained Dr. W. V. Bene- dict, the service's top entomolog- ist, "is put a hundred or so of the adults in a box, fasten it to a tree in the springtime, let the beetles crawl out, and hope they find the environment suitable. "In this big test with 20,000 beetles ir. Maine, we hope to find out just how effective they are against the aphids. If they are successful, we'll try larger colon- ies in the Western States. "So far, the beetles have cost us only $6,000 -mostly, to pay for collecting the insects in Eu- rope," Dr. Benedict added. "And remember, this kind of aphid control is self-perpetuating. Once the predators are established, we will have no further costs." Canadian f o r es t r y experts, who started it all, are cautious but equally optimistic. "I can't say that we've succeeded in era- dicating the woolly aphid," Dr. Malcolm L. Prebble, director of the Canadian Forest Biology Di- vision, summed up last month, "but their populations have de- finitely been reduced. We feel the program of importing insect predators offers our best hope of someday eliminating the woolly aphid from our forests." -From NEWSWEEK, Just Who Said Radio Is Dead? Question: What do television viewers do in the summer? Answer: They listen to the radio. This surprising bit of intellig- ence comes from Sindlinger and Co., business analysts, whose surveys show that last month for the first time in two years more people listened to the radio than looked at TV. Sindlinger attri- butes the shift to increased use of car radios (30 per cent of the total) and portables (12.5 per cent - seasonal factors that should preserve radio's lead well into August. In addition, said Sindlinger, the industry had run out of the pre -1948 movies that supported TV through last sum- mer's doldrums. politely unmen- tioned was television's usual summertime programming pros- tration; There just wasn't much worth looking at. In Manila, P.I,, after police re- ported four killings in a month by primitive weapons, Mayor Arsenio Lacson proposed an ord- inance requiring licenses for possession of bows and arrows, blowpipes and darts. In Rhinelander, Wis., while calling other scouts in the camp to warn them against using the phone in the storm, Scout Dick La Certe was stunned by a light- ning bolt that struck his tele- phone line, About Crabgrass And Other Pests Late summer r•nd early au- tumn lawn care begins with get- ting rid of crabgrass and other lawn weeds, In the case of crab- grass, which deposits thousands of seeds for next year per plant, the seeds need to be destroyed, also. One plant has been known to produce 250,000 seeds. Spraying with selective weed killers is therefore the first step. For the ordinary lawn weeds one weed killer will usually clear the lawn. But for crab- grass a special crabgrass killer is best. Some firms even offer differ- ent crabgrass sprays for differ- ent seasons of the year, the late - summer one quite strong and the early spring one focused on killing last fall's seeds, Follow the directions on the container of whichever one is used. Feeding Is the next important step. Autumn feeding will give the grass plants a chance to grow strong before the winter sets in. Soak the lawn food in well. Where dead weeds have been raked off you may have bare spots. These should be spaded or scratched up, the soil prepared as for a new lawn, and reseeded. .Lightly tamp the seed into the soil, the water often enough to keep the soil moist for the young seedlings, Daily watering on these placers or on new lawns will be needed for three or four weeks after seeding, unless rains take care of it. After that, water as need- ed to keep the lawn from drying out, Seeding of the entire lawn in among established grasses is also good practice in late summer and early fall. It can be done sparingly, for each seed has e better chance of germinating than in the spring. With the feeding and the cool nights and prevalent moisture the new -grass plants coming up will thicken the turf and make a good root base for next year. Keep on mowing the estab- lished lawn, and at not more than 11/2 inches in height. This is so the young grass coming up will not be smothered by tall grass or by heavy clippings. THE GUN-TOTIN' PARSON The Rev. Kurt von Hertzner, who became the famous gun toting minister of the Rockies, was journeying westward in 1882 and doing his best to learn the English language before ar- riving at his destination. An obliging fellow passenger, hi recalls, taught him over a period of days the key phrases he would need, Von Hertzner prac- ticed steadily so that as he descended from the train and met the mayor of Exton, Colo., where a church was waiting for him, he was able to say hearti- ly, "Hello, you black-shirted old sidewinder! Is it true you rustle cattle for a living?"

WEEKLY FARM REPORT (by J, Carl Hemingway) The government has released the de- tails of its deficiency payment plan for eggs, D:ficiency payments ,well be made on the first 4000 dozen eggs produced by any one producer this ap- plies only to the A large and A extra large grades. The deficiency payn:cnf will be the difference between the ac- tual market price to the producer and the producer price based on 44c de- livered In Montreal, This 44c price at Montreal apparently returns to the producer 33c in this area, To get sonic idea of the amount of deficiency payment that would have been necessary from the first of Jan- uary this year let us look at the prices that were quoted locally by ogg goad-, ing stations, From January 1st to March 9th it would have required a deficiency pay- ment of about one and one half cents per dozen to bring returns up to the 33c. It would also have required about the same payment from about the middle of April to the end of June, Deficiency payments do not operate so simply. They will he basad on lire average price for the year. On thin basis nn deficiency- payment weal( have been necessary since from th. first of the year till the middle of Aug list the quoted price has been above the floor just as much as it has beer below. The 4000 dozen quota will cover the production of something less than 300 hens. This means that the farmer with 300 hens will receive practically the same support as he is getting now. The large producer with 10,000 or more hens will he entirely dependant on the market price, I asked several egg grading station operators what they expected to be able to pay October 1st when the gov- ernment stops buying eggs. About 20! was the answer I received, If this is true the large producer is going to have a had time. I doubt that he can stay in business very long at this price and if he sells, his hems wi'1 probably bring only 25c each, if fowl prices drop as they are expected to. The other person interested i<s the consumer, Ile apparently can expect to buy eggs very cheaply for a time CARD OF TiIANKS We would like to thank all those 4 who remembered us with cards, treats and gifts when we had our tonsils re- moved. 32.1p.
