"Dear Anne Hirst: I almost
never read such columns as
yours and I know little of the
way they are handled, but a re-
cent letter you printed caught
my eye. It was from a bashful
bachelor who was so afraid of
single girls that he couldn't be
natural with them. I didn't real-
ize that men have the same prob-
lem that plagues me.
"I am all of 24, and more than
anything In the world I want a
good husband and a large family,
and It had better be soon. I'm a
graduate nurse, and in my work
I meet all kinds of people and
am always friendly, of course.
But socially, though I can always
feel at home with married men,
when a single one comes along
I go tongue-tied .. ,
"Like the man who wrote you,
I love children and envy every
couple who have them. How can
I conquer this foolish self-

Perhaps you fear single men
because you think they will
suspect you of pursuing them,
Men and women are alike in
their need for friendliness.
Showing an interest in their
opinions, their occupations and
avocations is z convenient ges•
ture that starts conversation;
it gives them the chance to
talk about themselves, and
how everybody loves to do
that!
So when you meet an un-
attached man socially, why not
treat him as you would a new
girl friend? After you find
common grounds to discuss,
conversation flows without

In 1866 young Wyatt Earp, who
later became the famous sheriff,
left his family in Los Angeles
and went to work as a clerk in
a grocery store in the tiny min-
ing settlement of Goldfield, CalI-
fornia, His employer, John New-
hauser, was a hard taskmaster.
Wyatt's temper mounted higher
and higher, The bulk of New-
hauser's bills were paid in gold
nuggets, which were kept in a
box uncial' the counter, One day
young Earp simply poured the
gold hoard into a twenty -pound
potato sack, added a few spuds
on top and sold the whole trea-
sure to the next customer for the
standard potato price of $1.75 a
bag.

Weatherwise, this column is
getting downright monotonous
— another week gone by — hot
humid and dry. Saturday night
we did have a brie! thunder-
storm, with high winds and rain
for about half an hour. That
has been the only change in our
weather pattern from a week
ago. But who are we to grum-
ble? Compared with many
other parts of the world we
are lucky. We also have all the
water we want and that means
a lot, especially as our town-
ship water is so much softer
than well -water. We are de-
lighted but maybe the water -
softener companies won't be
quite so happy as quite a num-
ber of our neighbours have de-
cided that they dop't need
softeners any more.
Last Tuesday we had visitors
from Elliott Lake — our niece
Babs, her husband and three
children. The same ones who
stayed with us on the farm
for two months about three
years ago. Now the little girls
have a four -months -old baby
brother. And the treatment that
poor baby has to take gives ma
the jitters. He is lugged around
by first one and then the other.
I put an old sheet on the floor
for him to roll on. The gir's
promptly used the sheet as a
sled and pulled him around the
floor on it. He took all the"
mauling as a matter of course
and never so much as whim-
pered. When it came his feeding
time the girls turned their at-
tention to Taffy and Ditto. Very
soon Ditto took refuge in the
basement and Taffy got a lit-
tle snappy. Not enough to do
any harm but enough to make
them realize they were not go-
ing to do as they liked with
him.
1 suppose young mothers get
used to all this exuberance but
believe me at the end of their
six -hour visit, pleased as 1 was
to see them, I was glad they
were not staying any longer.
And I said so, Babs laughed ,'
"Poor Aunt Gwen, you can't
take it like you used to, can
you?" She is right — and either
I have changed or children gen-
erally have more life and en-

No wonder It takes 50 mills of
our tax rate to look after their
education.
Yes, 1 said 1 would mention

remains the same. Of our total
tax bill $191.00 is for educa-

frills could be cut ` out. Fur
instance the• modern trend is
for one side of class rooms to
be practically all glass. So what
happens? The sun is too hot,
blinds are pulled down and
lights turned on. More hydro!
Many schools are designed on
a one -floor plan, sprawling over
a large acreage, thus increasing
the cost of heating in winter.
And all this expense has to be
borne by property owners,
whether they have children or
not. Whereas people in rented
rooms or houses are not requir-
ed to pay school taxes, Oh, I
suppose there are hidden taxes

watch the traffic go by, Through
a gap in the fences I can see
the heavy transports, anywhere
from four to sixteen -wheel ve-

how many of the drivers will

as "Cannonball" meets with on
so many of his trips. That series
was good when it first started.

It is so terribly poignant I'm
not sure that I want to see the

stand it but to die so near to

lease is more than one can bear.
Anne's diary must bring back
many memories to immigrants to
Canada, more fortunate than
Anne. Incidentally I notice im- ,
migrants from Middle Europe
get along very well with Brit-
ish or native born Canadians but
seem to be frightfully jealous
and distrustful of other new
Canadians, I wonder why? I,
personally, have come across
quite a number of such cases,
Prayer Helped
An inspiring story of a teen-
ager's faith apd courage came out
of the Grand Canyon the other
day when a rescue helicopter
bore 15 -year-old John M. Owens
of Savannah, Ga,, back to civili-
zation, His return climaxed a
six-day fight for survival after
two companions, one .an adult,
perished in the treacherous can-
yon's wilds,
In describing his ordeal after
they lost their way, John recall-
ed that when he found himself
on the river side that had no
vegetation, he knew he must re-
cross to find food although he
had nearly drowned in the rapids
a short time previously. "I chick-
ened," he remembered, "and then
I said, 'Owens, you ain't a man
unless you do it.'"
So, of course, he did it. Leap-
ing back in, he swam out to the
sandbar upon which he was sub-
sequently spotted by air search-
ers, but he doesn't take all the
credit for saving himself. "All
along I prayed every minute of
every day," he said. "I never
prayed so much in my life . , , I
prayed, that's what helped me."
Obviously, as a park ranger
put It, young Owens "is a man
now," even If he is only 15. It is
obvious that John's ordeal taught
him one of life's most valuable
lessons; that is, no matter how
hard a man fights, he must have
help from a power beyond him-

Modern Etiquette
by Roberta Leo
Q. What do you have to say
about our rclationshlp with sales.
persons?
A, A sure gauge of manners
and breeding is the treatment we
give persons who serve us, Dis-
courtesy toward a person who is
not free to answer back without
risking his job is the essence off
rudeness. Salespersons should
never be treated as inferiors,
even by the tone of your voice,
Their job is to serve you, jusl
as yours is to type letters for
your boss or to manage your
household,
• Q. When asked to pass a dish
at the table, and you were just
about to partake of that dish
yourself, is it all right to help
yourself first?
A. No; this would be very
crude and ill-mannered, unless,
of course, the other person in-
ists that you do so.
Q. If a girl becomes engaged,
and she has no family, would if
be all right for her flance's tam.
Hy to announce the engagementl
A. No, This is always the privi-
lege of the bride -elect. If she
does not have the means of giv-
ing an announcement party, then
she can extend her "good news"
through the local newspaper.
Q. Row should the very large
type of shrimp in a cocktail be
eaten?
A, If you can manage it, you
cut it in half with the fork
against the side of the glass —
or else, you lift it out, put 11
on the plate underneath the
glass, and cut it In half with
the fork.
Q. I. am a young. girl and ani
about to apply for my first job
In a large business office. For the
interview, should I wear hat and
gloves?
A, You should wear hat and
gloves, by all means.
Q. What sort of dress should
a woman wear to an afternoon
social function?
A. The best policy always Is
to wear the simplest sort of day-
time dress in which you look
well. Remember, you need never
worry if you happen not to be
"dressed" as much as the others,
The time really to worry is when
you are "over -dressed"!
Q. How should a married wo-
man have her personal stationery
engraved — as "Mrs, John J.
Smith," or as, "Jane Smith"?
A. "Jane Smith" is only for a
very young girl or for a profes-
sional woman who is known by
that name. Stationery to be used
for general purposes should have
the woman's full name — "Mrs.
John J. Smith."
Q. How many vegetables is it
necessary to serve at a dinner?
A. Two vegetables are suffi-
cient.

Sherlock Still
Very Much Alive
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, born
in Edinburgh a century ago,
was an earnest, simple man
whose hope was that he would
be remembered, not for his mys-
tery stories, nor for Sherlock
Holmes, whom he came to hate,
but for his historical novels,
which nobody reads now at all,
Doyle died in 1930, but Holmes
lives persistently on, In edition
after edition, and virtually
every printed language, and in
many native dialects, the • thin,
hawk - nosed, pipe - smoking
sleuth wages his battles with
Professor Moriarty, and three
generations of his admirers have
learned to live with the insuf-
ferable omniscence, consum-
mately expressed in the line,
"Elementary, my dear Watson!"
In a fusty, stone -faced build-
ing which occupies the site t,f
what would be 221b in Baker
Street, London, John Greaves,
who works for the Abbey Na-
tional Building Society, calls in
his secretary several times a
week and solemnly dictates re-
plies to the letters that still
come in from all over the world
to Mr. Sherlock Holmes, at that
address. In the US., for 25
years "The Baker Street Irre-
gulars" have gathered for din-
ner from time to time and read
papers on such subjects as "Did
Sherlock Holmes Take Dope"
and "Was Dr, Watson a Philan-
derer?" Obviously Mr, Hohnea
is very much alive.
In celebration of Doyle's cen-
tennial year, the British Book
Centre has brought out "Great
Stories by S i r Arthur Conan
Doyle" selected and introduced
by John Dickson Carr, whose
own sinister Gideon Fell and
jovial Sir Henry Merrivale are
among the best of old Holmes'
god -children in deviltry. Instead
of limiting himself to Holnlesi-
ana (of which there are two ex-
cellent samples in this volume)
' Carr has selected pieces whi':h
represent something of Doyle's
literary range science fiction.,
historical adventure, a boxing
story, a pure horror tale, and
two of the Brigadier Gerard ad.
ventures. As a straight writer of
unmysterious fiction, Conan
Doyle turns out to have grown
a little bit stiff with age, but
his detective stories, full of the
triumphs of deduction, stand up
to the toughest modern stand-
ards very well indeed.
Visited last month in a com-
fortable old shingle -style house
in Mamaroneck, N.Y., among his
hundreds of heady books on
p o i s o n, hangings, witchcraft,
ghosts, and murder in all forms,
Carr, a slight, trim, mustached
man, remarked of Sir Arthur
Conan Doyle: "He's still awful-
ly good, you know, He plays
fair with you most of the time;
his clues are all there. It's ter-
ribly hard to criticize him. If
you exclude Poe, he was really
the first." He added a little am-
biguously: "You can't very well
call a man offside in a game
he invented himself."

Prince Charles To Learn French
So Prince Charles, 10 -year-old
heir to the British throne, is hav-
ing special French lessons for
part of his summer vacation in
Scotland!
1-Iis French tutor, Lieutenant
Jean Lajeunesse, a French Cana-
dian Army officer, has just
traveled to Balmoral from Lon-
don, after making the journey
here from Canada,
With memories of my own and
my children's resistance to vaca-
tion homework I phoned Buck-
ingham Palace to hear how
Prince Charles had reacted to
the idea. It's one of the pleasant
aspects of relations with the
royal family these days that a
reporter can phone Whitehall
4832 and have an, intimate chat
with one of the press secretaries.
Not so very long ago palace
relations with the press were
very formal. The reporter was
sometimes even given the feel-
ing of being an upstart prod -
nose. Today things are very dif-
ferent. The lady at the other
end of the phone gave the im-
pression. she really wanted to
talk about Prince Charles and
his French.
Incidentally it's rather strange
to find in the London telephone
directory that Buckingham Pa-
lace is listed in the smallest
print, while big heavy print
makes it far easier to spot the
Buckingham Hotel and A. F.
Buckingham Lt., makers of bed-
ding in Bermondsey. But then
Sir Winston Churchill is also
listed in the smallest possible
type. Presumably it's because
neither Sir Winston nor the
royal family are in business.
The press secretary at the Pa-
lace assured me that Prince
Charles' summer vacation isn't
going to be spoiled by French
lessons, Lieutenant Lajeunesse
is at Balmoral not just to teach
French but also to tell stories
and information about Canada,
Prince Charles and Princess
Anne are bubbling over with
questions about the great domin-
ion which their mother and fa-
ther have recently visited.
Queen Elizabeth II foresaw
this when she was 'in Canada.
.She asked whether it would be
possible for a French-speaking
officer, front- the Royal Vingt-
Deuxieme Regiment, of which
she is Colonel -in -Chief, to stay
at Balmoral this summer to act
as French tutor, The suggestion
was readily accepted and Lieut-
enant Lajeunesse, 27 -year old
graduate of Montreal University,
was chosen, .
Prince Charles has already
made a good start in French at
his prep school. at Cheain, in
Berkshire. And during the
'Christmas vacation at Sandring-
ham in 1958 "French days" were
introduced when the Prince and
Princess spoke and were ad-
dressed only in French,
Queen Elizabeth, Pr in c e s s
Margaret, and Queen Elizabeth,
the Queen Mother, are fluent
French speakers, Princess Philip,
father of Prince Charles, is pro-
ficient. So one way and another
it looks as •if Prince Charles
should escape that silly Anglo-
Saxon self-consciousness about
speaking French and other lan-
guages,
I remember my generation of
boys at school saying, "I couldn't
speak a language where you
have to throw your arms about
so much," This is complete non-
sense because when an English-
man gets excited in conversation
he articulates as much with his
arms and hands as does a
Frenchman, writes Peter Lyne
in the Christian Science Moni-
tor.
Americans on the whole are
almost as bad as Englishman
about speaking. foreign lan-
guages. They don't have to be-
cause more and more people
speak English. This is a pity be-
cause much is lost, especially in
travel, by not speaking lan-
guages.
What we Anglo-Saxons don't
seem to realize is that our bad
French accents may sound as at-
tractive to French folk as Ma-
urice Chevalier's French accent
sounds to us. Sir Winston
Churchill has an atrocious
French accent, But that doesn't
prevent him from bursting into
French at times. When he ad-
dressed a Paris liberation com-
mittee in November, 1944, he
warned his audience "prenez-
garde, je parle Francais" (look
out, I am going to speak French).
It looks as if the royal parents
are going to see to it that Prince
Charles will be able to speak
French naturally. And that will
be a fine thing if anything ever
comes of the idea of members
of the royal family going to live
for a time in the different do-
minions, as has been suggested.
Prince Charles plight become
Governor General of Canada be-
fore becoming King. Then it
would be a feather in his cap if
he could speak French as fluent-
ly as English,
Q. )low can I restore the orig-
inal whituess to discolored china

Bill Is Gane
On a cool February night near
Berkeley, Calif., Bill Rigney was
fighting drowsiness as he drove
home with his wife, Paula, asleep
in the front seat beside him. It
was after 2 a.nl, and Rigney had
made his tenth public -speaking
appearance in fourteen nights
before dropping in to an asso-
ciate's home for a nightcap, Sud-
denly, he dozed at the wheel,
When Rigney woke up, his car
was smashed against a telephone
pole and he was lying on the
ground, conscious of pain, "What
happened?" he asked a state
trooper who stood over him.
'Your throat's cut the trooper
said.
"Oh, great," Rigney muttered
and blacked out.
Actually, Rigney suffered a
fractured jaw, a series of deep
cuts on the neck and chest, and
lost seven teeth, Mrs, Rigney was
so seriously injured that there
was some question of her walk-
ing again. But from last win-
ter's utter bleakness, the Rigneys
have moved to a summer of
sheer delight. Last month, Bill's
jaw was fine, Paula was almost
ready to discard her crutches,
and the San Fransisco Giants,
under the brilliant and battling
leadership of Rigney, had be-
come the most exciting team in
baseball.
A spring -training choice for
no higher than third or fourth,
Bill Rigney's Giants beat the
Milwaukee Braves' great Warren
Spahn, then caught a midnight
flight to Philadelphia, "We didn't
get to the hotel until 4 in the
morning.' Johnny Antonelli, the
intense left-hander, said a few
hours later near the batting cage
at Connie Mack Stadium, "and
I'm an oldfashioned guy. I wear
pajamas. So I waited for my
bags and I didn't get to sleep till
5." Then Antonelli went out and
pitched an old-fashioned eight -
hit shutout as the Giants swept
a twi-night double-header from
the Phils and built their lead to
two and a half games.
How do Rigney's driving
young Giants play ball? In Phila-
delphia recently, they were lead-
ing Robin Roberts by two runs
in the sixth inning, with Mays
on second and rookie Willie Mc -
Covey on first. Each time Roberts
wound up, Mays stared hard at
catcher Valmy Thomas, an ex -
Giant, and then tipped off, or
pretended to tip off, what Rob-
erts would throw,
Abruptly Roberts wheeled and
marched on Mays, Umpire Jocko
Conlan cut him off, but Roberts
was still furious when he re-
sumed pitching. As he did, Mays
stole third, Then as Mays work-
ed his way into and out of a
trap between third and home,
McCovey stole second. Roberts
was thoroughly • rattled and
Daryl Spencer doubled to left.
Usually the Giants give the
opposition the Willies — Mays
and McCovey. At other times,
though, it's Jackie Brandt and
Orlando Cepeda, who team up to
drive National League clubs
frantic. Whenever the Giants
play, there is a fire and a dash
that may well be the mark of
champions. "They think they can
win it," Rigney says, "and they
act that way and they play that
way. What about the manager?
Well, maybe I'm a little better
than I was when I started, You
learn what you have to do."
What Rigney feels he has to do
now is let the young hall players
know he stands behind them, so
this gray, spectacled, rather
scholltrly-looking man of 41, al-
ready has been thrown out of
four games this season. It's not
a question of fighting with um-
pires; it's a question of fighting
for a pennant,
Arid at a time when the Giants
were supposed to fold under
pressure, the players boarded a
ball -park bus in Philadelphia
thought they were going out on a

Peace Comes from God
Zechariah 7:8.12; 8:4.8; 12-13
Memory Selee1ian: clow beau-
tiful upon the mountains are the
feet of him that briugeth good
- tidings, that puhiisheth peace.
Isaiah 52:7.
Someone said, "The only les-
son we learn from history is that
we don't learn from history."
Well, it's an old story. People
turn away from God despite Itis
loving entreaties. They get into
serious trouble. They turn
against one another and quarrel
and despitefully use one another.
Losing respect for themselves as
well as for nth rs, mny become
adulterers, God's wrath is pour-
ed out upon them. 'Their lives are
empty.
At such a time people are more
ready to listen to the words of
His prophets. They have been
speaking before but people
would not hear. Part of the pro-
phet's task is to point out the
cause of their present plight,
The conscience of the people is
aroused. Some repent of their
sins and make their peace with
God. His mercy shines forth.
People don't like to hear ser-
mons denouncing sin. That's why
so much of today fits the pie.
ture of Jererniah's day (Jere.
miah 8:10,11), "From the pro-
phet even unto the priest every
one dealeth falsely. I'or they
have healed the hurt of my peo-
ple slightly, saying Peace, Peace;
when there is no peace."
The prophet of God always
has a message of hope. The God
who punishes the unrepentant
wicked will also reward the
righteous. Peace comes from
God. How sad it is that we are
slow to turn to Hini to find soul
satisfaction!
Zecharirh was a prophet of the
period after the exile. He with
Haggai encouraged the people to
complete the building of the
temple. He saw that if they were
faithful in their obedience to
Him, there was a bright future
for them. He brings this mes.
sage to thein from the Lord of
hosts, (8:3), "I am returned unto
Zion, and will dwell in the midst
of Jerusalem; and Jerusalem
shall be called a city of truth;
and the mountain of the LORD
of hosts the holy mountain,"
Some of Zecariah's prophecies
were fulfilled in the coming of
Christ as the one predicting that
He would enter the city riding
an ass's colt. But Jerusalem has
not reached - its zenith, Greater
blessings are yet in store.
Modern Education

What sort of attitude did he

'Torrent."
And what is it that flows from
e volcano? "Larvae."
Amusing but sad, these bloop-
ers are but a small sampling of
hundreds of such errors that
Prof. Ralph S. Graber has un-
toverecl in papers submitted by
his freshmen English students at
4Iuhlenberg College, a 1,000 -
student co-ed school In Allen-
town, Pa.
Commenting on his findings,
Graber singled out a familiar vil-
lain - television. "Kids today
don't do as much reading as they
used to," he said. "They watch
TV instead, They hear words,
but they do not see them, and be-
cause of slovenly pronunciation,
they don't even hear them cor-
rectly."
What is worse, the trend is
growing. "In 1946, when I started
college teaching, maybe 10 per
Kent of my students made such
errors," Graber recalled. "To-
day it's more like a third or a
half."
But TV isn't the only factor,
he said, "Very little reading or
writing is being done in schools
these days. Consequently, there
le little stimulus for students to
read on their own. Ten years ago
1 saw my students reading books
like 'Anna Karenina,' the works
if Thomas Hardy, and the best
Current novels. Today, when they
read at all, it's nothing that
would help where vocabulary is
concerned - Mad magazine,
Playboy, things of that sort."
In short, the whole problem
unquestionably has many fau-
vets.

Drop of Oil Starts
Fond Memories
A drop of oil on a troubled
hinge; and the memories of yes-
terday fade from the mind. It's
as easy as that, l found 1 was
being misled by some curious
deflection of thought, and I
couldn't figure out what went
on. This has been going on for
months, Of course, some all -wise
student of the inner recesses of
preoccupation could easily have
told me, but it was much more
tun to find out for myself,
It came without warning, url,•
related and remote, i would be
sitting here at the typewriter,
perhaps, trying to share my
natural passion for joy with
the multitucr_' and all at once
I would jump up with, I sup-
pose, a glazed eye and faraway
mien, and I would be thinking
about a dozen cup custards, nut-
meg and gold and their ebullient
enthusiasm bouncing off the
ceiling,
Or, 1 would be in the rocker
by the back window, examining
the erudition of the local edi-
tor, who has never been beyond
Portland but has some marvel-.
ous schemes for the perplexing
intricacies of the Far East, and
all at once I would have a lovely
vision of four blueberry pies.
This was disturbing, and t
began to worry about it. 1 get
a fair feed here, as those things
go, and am hot underprivileged
in the calorie department. Fur-
thermore, the ordinary disci-
plines of a stable intellect dis-
approve of such big jumps. U
I were going to set up some
kind of a hanker, in which l
would be ruminating on the in-
terne? problems of the plumb-
ing trade, and decided to shift,
all this to an unwarranted con-
templatlon of a custard, I would
have just one custard. There was
a plurality to this thing which
baffled me beyond the matter
itself, Why custards, indeed -
but why a dozen custards?
"There's an old pair of shoes
in the shop closet that look good
enough to wear some more,"
she had said, and I went and
got them an for the time be-
ing I was completely absorbed
in this discovery. they were,
or it was, a pair of heavy Scotch -
grain Oxfords I Iced been fond
of, the kind of shoe you find
occasionally which never feels
new when it is new, and when
they disappeared I was put out.
1 never could imagine what be-
came of them.
So. now I had them, and I
pulled them on, and 1 was glad
to see them, as withan old
friend from away back, and I
,had one of thele up on a chair
out In the summer kitchen, ap-
plying a dose of ox -blood pol-
ish. This is typical of the one-
track situation I have been to
when the gustatory mirage ap-
plied itself, Suddenly I had a
vision of four loaves of high -
crusted home -baked bread, quite
likely oatmeal bread from the
appearance.
This sort of thing is fun, In
a way. I gather plenty of peo-
ple in this world have things to
think on which are not so love-
ly as loaves of home -baked
baked bread, but why four all
at once? I stood there with the
dauber poised, and wondered
why my absurdity couldn't be
content with one slice of oat-
meal bread, perhaps anointed
with some sweet butter, and then
lightly sprinkled with brown
sugar?
It was the molasses cookies
that finally gave me the tip-off.
I conjured up a splendid vision
of about two acres of thin molas-
ses cookies while 1 was pound-
ing down a couple of persistent
tacks in the kitchen rocker, and
I figured out the whole thing.
Just before 1 had this won-
derful vision, she had inserted
the last of the dishes into our
dishwashing machine, and had
closed the front door before
pushing the button. And the
hinge on the dishwasher had
made a gently protesting noise,
sort of .an ernk sound. "You put
a drop of oil on that hinge and
you'd be surprised how quiet
things will be around here," I
said, and then I knew,
My mother's ancient Wood &
Bishop kitchen range had an
oven dcor which all my boy-
hood made exactly the same
sound whether she opened or
closed it!
The realization of what a trick
had been played on me occu-
pied me all morning. I fondly
saw, all over again, the tin pan
of custards, an even dozen in
heavy crockery mugs, coming
forth as I had seen them so many
times before. The cookies were
exactly as they had been. The
bread, I could now see, was
authentic - for of the four
loaves one was a small one.
Mother's bread mixer made
enough for three big loaves and
one small one, so we always
had a small loaf. It was even
so. The pies and the cakes, the
pot of beans, the cornbread and
the blueberry muffins. Every
time the dishwashing machine
had ernked, my bringing-up
flashed back. "On second
thought, I'l] oil it for your
"Getting kind of domestic
about this, aren't you?" she said.
"I can oil a hinge. I just didn't
hear it squeaking, I guess."
I oiled it, anyway. Sort of telt
the ernk was too much of a
good thing. No one person de-
serves such pleasant thoughts
as I was having. It was too rich
a diet. Besides, it was becoming
critical, for after one hot -day
lunch of crackers and milk, she
washed the dishes and I had a
roast goose on my mind all af-
ternoon. You can't go on living
that well. By John Gould in
The Christian Science Monitor.
Venus Says No!
Venus Is signalling. What does she say?
She says, and rather rudely, "Keep awayl"
"Can't you," she cries, "Leave anything alone,
And have you got no trouble of your own?
My flying saucers have described with mirth
The kind of thing that happens on your Earth.
Why spread your mess and muddle to the stars?
I don't want motor -bombs or atom -cars.
I don't want rocketfuls of crazy kids,
All talking poppycock in planet -lids.
Our life is healthy here: and I am told
You'll bring consumption, and the common cold.
Our life is quiet: but my saucer -boys
Report that everywhere you cause a noise.
And then - it's rather delicate - but - well,
They say your planet has a nasty smell -
The smell of blood, the smell of sweat and toil,
The smell of smoke, and alcohol, and oil.
So kindly cancel anything you've planned:
No earthian will be allowed to land.
I'd have an Englishman or two to stay:
But then, the Russians would be here next day."

A tractor and a furnace may
not seem to have much in com-
mon, bat did you know that a
tractor radiator normally re-
moves as much heat from the
engine as is produced by the
.average household furnace?
* *
J. L., Thompson of the Fed-
eral Experimental Farm at Swift
Current, Sask., emphasizes that
the cooling system in a tractor
or engine requires good main-
tenance to keep it performing
at a high level. Dirt, he says, is
the worst enemy of the cooling
system - both inside and out,
* * * -
Scale and rust slowly close
the tubes and plug water pas-
sages in the cylinder head and
block, This coating, besides
slowing circulation, reduces
heat transfer and, in time, espe-
cially under heavy loads on hot
days, the tractor overheats.
Where water is used as a cool-
ant, anti -rust additives are re-
commended to retard rust and
scale formation. When a radia-
tor becomes plugged, it should
be cleaned by a shop specializ-
ing in radiator repair.
Leaves, insects, straw and
soil on the outside of the core
may cause overheating. Air pas-
sages in the radiator core should
be cleaned periodically with an
air hose. Fan belts should be
adjusted frequently during the
operating season. Thermostats
and hoses should be checked
when heating occurs, and re-
placed if faulty.
$ 4. *
Anti -freeze is needed for late
fall and early spring tractor
use. Besides preventing a crack-
ed block and radiator, antI-
freeze contains additives which
keep the inside core in good
condition.
"Proper care and periodic
checks of the tractor cooling
system will prevent delay in
the field during the busy sea-
son and avoid serious damage
to a high priced machine," com-
ments Mr. Thompson.

Barley kernels and the far-
mer have something in common
when malting barley is not
threshed properly - they both
get skinned.
* 4 *
Malting barley buyers will not
pay a premium on barley when
skinned and broken kernels
constitute more, than five per
. cent of the sample. When this
occurs malting barley reverts
to feed grades.
* * *
Agricultural engineers have
studied the threshing problem
and come up with a few sug•
gestions that will reduce dam-
age to a minimum. These are:
1. Set cylinder speed just fast
enough to thresh barley from
heads.
2. Adjust concave clearance to
properly match cylinder
speed.
3. Keep 'cylinder and concaves
in gond repair and alignment.
4. Use plenty of wind for se-
paration of barley from
chaff and straw - keep sieve
openings free from matted
beards that tend to clog the
screens.
5. Keep tailings return to a
minimum,
6. Operate blower elevator at
proper speed.
7. Minor adjustments may be
necessary during the day to
compensate for changes In
temperature and moisture
content of the straw and
grain.
* * 4.
To implement these sugges-
tions, the operator of the thresh-
er will have to exercise consi-
derable judgment and may of-
ten have to do some experi-
menting.
$ * $
Benefits from inclusion of an
antibiotic or an arsonic acid
derivitive in chick rations may
hinge on the degree of expo-
sure to disease infection, it was
indicated in nutrition studies
at Brandon, Man.
Chicks were reared to six
weeks of age in cleaned and
disinfected b at t e r y brooders.
Supplementation of their ration
with an arsonic acid derivative
(45 grams per ton of 3-nitro-4-
hydroxyphenylarsonic acid) or
aureomycin (15 grams per ton)
had no influence on body weight
gains or feed efficiency.
* * $
Both compounds, however, Im-
proved the weight gains and
feed efficiency of chicks reared
on old litter in floor .pens, where
the degree of disease infection
presumably would be higher
than in the battery brooders.
* 4. *
Arsonic acid and aureomycin
were equally eNective 'and no
further improvement in growth
was noted when the two com-
pounds were fed in combination.
It would appear that the growth
stimulating mechanism might
well be the same for the arsonic
acid compounds and the anti-
biotics.
Further tests are in progre?s
to determine whether the re•
sponse to arsonic acid may be
influenced by ration composition.
Nobody ever got the better of
Judge Roy Bean, although one
convicted criminal lit out from
his Jersey Lily courtroom In
Langtry, Texas, thinking that he
had done so. Tom Wendler,
caught red-handed with a print-
ing press and a stack of coun-
terfeit bills, was jailed but man-.
aged to wangle his freedom by
slipping five hundred dollars to
the right party. Not until the
guilty man was well out of the
state did the anguished jurist
examine the bribe and realize
that he, himself, was a victim
of the counterfeiter. A helpless
victim? Not for long That week,
by Judge Bean's ,judicial order,
the only legal tender acceptable
in Langtry w a s counterfeit
money.
'The Day The Earth Stood Still
And They Saw The Stars Dance'
EDITOR'S NOTE: For those
who helped to liberate Paris
from the Nazis, Aug. 25, 1944,
will always bo "the day the
earth stood still . . . and they
saw the stars dance," say Rich-
ard Hollander, writer of the fol.
lowing 1511: anniversary reminis.
cence. Hollander entered Paris
by Jeep on the morning of Lib-
eration Day with a team of psy-
chological warfare specialists, of
which he was one. IIe is manag-
Ing editor of the Washington
Daily News.
by Richard Hollander
Written for NEA Service
Washington - (NEA) - Late
summer in France is lovely in-
deed. And on this day of Paris'
liberation 15 years ago it seemed
even lovelier than usual.
There was a hush on the coun-
tryside as the jeeps sped over the
cobblestones to awaken Paris
from a pastthat was dead, to
begin a -future from scratch.
This countryside hadn't been
churned by artillery. Except for
the pitted paving and the wreck-
ed belfries where German snipers
had lingered you might have
thought there hadn't been a war
at all..
The poplars in parallel rows
curved toward Paris. The nearer
you came, the more excited the
people.
In Rambouillet, southwest of
the city, the excitement mount-
ed. Tanks rumbled. Gen. de
Gaulle waited in the chateau to
make his triumphant entry,
grumbling, people said, because
Gen LeClerc would get there
ahead of him.
At the outer gates of Paris the
people put on what was left of
holiday attire.
The champagne and the cog-
nac and the kisses, all the tangi-
ble gratitude intended for mil-
lions of fighting men, was pour-
ed out for the handful of Brit-
ish and Americans fortunate
enough to be in on this greatest
day in the long history of Parts.
Suddenly, the speeding jeeps
veered into the Boulevard Ras -
pall. All was ominously quiet.
Behind those blank facades
there. were still snipers and the
whine of the bullets echoed
around your ears.
The jeeps ‘lent faster and thetl
they were swinging in front of
the Chamber of Deputies and
heading across the Seine Bridge
that leads into the Place de la
Concorde.
The bridge is called the Pont
de la Concorde, and it was there
that an American captain from
Cambridge, Mass., hauled his
jeep to a stop and began bang-
ing away happily with his car-
bine at the Hotel Crillon across
the Place where a few Germans
were holding out.
It wasn't until later that the
captain remembered that it was
at another Concord Bridge that
an ancestor had helped fire the
shot heard 'round the world.
Even after 15 years, it's still
probably a good dining -out anec-
dote.
That night the boulevards,
packed from wall to wall with
all of the people of Paris, ex-
ploded with singing of The Star
Spangled Banner and God Save
the King and the Marseillaise
and Madelon and Tipperary.
Near the Madeleine, a GI
stopped in a doorway to light a
cigarette. In the flare of the
match he saw a middle-aged
couple approach. The man tip-
ped his hat and said, uncertain-
ly:
"You are an American?"
The GI nodded.
"Then," said the Frenchman,
"will you please kiss my wife?"
The mood lasted through the
next day.
There was a parade and de
Gaulle went to Notre Dame to
give thanks, la the narrow road-
way of the Rue di Rivoll be-
tween the shops and the garden
of Louis XIV, the snipers began
again. But the people joked lift
they rolled in the gutters to hide.
The firing continued, even into
Notre Dame itself, like a half -
r e m e m b e r e d, unbelieveable
movie.
In fact, after 15 years, that's
what the whole long civic up-
heaval seems like to those who
were there.
On Saturday night, the dream
came to an end. German bomb-
ers ranged low over the city and
dusted it for hours. Paris had
been an open city, had no anti-
aircraft defenses. We hadn't
brought any.
To the people, the little hand-
ful of token liberators suddenly
seemed just as insufficient as
they really were. By Sunday
morning, the chastened Parisians
eyed the liberators with hostility.
Why were they so few? Was this
the end or only the beginning of
more trouble?
In their minds, the people of
Paris had somehow linked their
own liberation with the end of
the war. It hadn't occurred to
them in their first flights of un-
bounded joy that there might be
another long winter of war, far
to the north and east. Not to
mention the island hopping and
jungle rot and Kamekazis half
way across the world.
Sometime during that Satur-
day night the world had hgun
to move again.
From there on, it moved too
fast for most people. After all,
who in this generation was born
to digest the implications and
the actuality of nuclear weapons,
of two world wars that didn't
seem to solve anything at all?
Bing And Boys
Don't Get Along
Bing Crosby's four sons, who
shower their famous father with
verbal darts in their night-club
act, aren't necessarily joking; at
least Gary, 26, isn't. "We just
don't get along any more," he
said. The father -son split open-
ed when Bing's boys worked
brig hours for short wages at
the family's ranch In Nevada.
Gary said the boys had "alwayn
wanted to go into show busi-
ness," despite "all that propa-
ganda Dad spread about us
wanting to be ranchers," rhe
split widened last March when
Bing, while admitting he 'fail-
ed" his sons, rebuked Gary for
refusing to "face up to responsi-
bilities." When Bing asked his
sons to appear on his television '
show this fall, Gary said no
thanks, and the boys, instead,
signed up with Crosby's old
friendly rival, Bob Hope, When
the Crosby brothers h i t Las
Vegas, Bing passed up the
opening, went fishing off Alas-
ka. Has Bing ever seen the acl.?
No, said Gary, and Pop wasn't
going to get any invitation from
him. Nevertheless, Bing said he
would probably go see his sons'
act soon.
