ATTEND THE GAME ON
FRIDAY NIGHT
13y virtue of their 9 to 3 win over
Lucknow at the local arena on Monday
day night, the Blyth Legionnaires went
one game up in their best 3 out of 5
Group Championship Series aginst the
boys from the Sepoy town.
The Legionnaires, who seem to he
improving with each game, played in-
spired hockey throughout the entire
game. Their hack checking was tre-
mendous as they held Lucknow to only
three goals, something that has rarely
been accomplished this season.
The most disappointing factor of the
game was the lack of local supporters.
it certainly goes against the moral of
players when they see so few coming
to watch the games, and also very hard
on their sponsors, the Blyth Branch of
the Canadian Legion, For example,
tete gross receipts from the game on
Monday night were just over fifty dol-
lars and after the arena took Its share
and the referees were paid, the team
was Iefl with only eight dollars. Not
much when it comes to paying for
sticks, which cost about $2,50 each, and
the transporting of tlic team to out-of-
town games, Incidentally, five slicks
were broken at this game.
TJIE NEXT I1OME GAME IS THIS
FRIDAY NIGHT and if the boys win
in Lucknow tonight, 1Vednesday, a win
on Friday will give them the Champion-
ship.
l.,et's turn off the TV set and go to
this game.. Some very exciting action
and good hockey is guaranteed. We
feel sure if you do, you won't miss
one of the remaining games.

Walked 240 Miles To
Her Own Wedding
Do ye ken John Peel? Of
course. Everyone does. But do
you know the amazing story of
his runaway marriage at Gretna
Green? This romantic drama
started in 1797 when the famous
huntsman fell in love with eigh-
teen - year - old Mary White,
daughter of a Cumbrian farmer.
The banns were duly read in
church, but Mrs, White objected
to the marriage because the
couple were still too young. True
love, however, though it may not
always run smooth, seldom goes
slow. One dark night young
John Peel saddled Binsey, his
father's fastest horse, and rode
across the fells to the village of
Uldale, where Mary White lived
Mary was ready for him She
had smuggled a length of rope
into her bedroom, and when John
tapped at her window she let
herself down, carrying only a
small bundle of belongings,
As the clock was striking mid.
night John lifted his bride on to
the horse and galloped off with
her, across nearly sixty miles of
wild mountainous country, to
border village of Gretna Green,
There, next day, the couple
were married according to the
ancient custom of the place.
However, when they returned
home, Mrs, White relented, per-
haps on the score of properiety
On December 18th that year
John and Mary were married
again, this time in their own
Caldheck church,
The entry in the register can
still be read: "John Peel Bartle.
nor, of this parish, and Mary
White, Spinster, of this parish,
were married in this Church by
banns, this 18th day of Decem-
ber in the year one thousand
seven hundred and ninety-seven
by nee, Joseph Rogerson, Curate."
Why, then, did John Peel
choose Gretna Green? Everyone
thinks they know the answer, but
not many people have it right.
To begin with, there is absolute-
ly no truth at all in the legend
that Gretna's eloping couples
were married at the anvil by a
blacksmith, In the words of an
official guidebook to Gretna:
"There is not one record of any
,such marriage ever having taken
place."
In those years, however, Scot-
tish law enabled any couple over
sixteen to marry simply by de-
claring their willingness in front
of three witnesses, all of whom
may have been complete stran-
gers to them. The principal wit-
ness, or "priest," was usually the
Gretna ferryman or the toll -
keeper or the landlord of the
King's Head Inn.
Marriages never did take place
at a smithy, They occurred either
at the tollhouse or in Gretna
Hall. Visitors to Gretna' Green
may still inspect the famous
register of runaway marriages.
Between 1825 and 1855 no fewer
than 1.134 eloping couples were
married in the village, among
them peers, heiresses, tinkers,
criminals, and even a clergyman
or two,
How much did the ceremony
cost? The price varied from two-
pence to a modern £1,000, ac-
cording to circumstances. Per-
haps the most amazing cut-price
marriage occurred when a youth
arrived at midnight, wishing to
marry a Yorkshire squire's
daughter with a fortune of near-
ly £100,000 (in those years a
woman's money automatically
became the property of her hus-
band),
Hot on the couple's heels came
the girl's father and two armed
servants, vowing to shoot the
young man if they caught him.
In desperation the youth round-
ec1 up a couple of witnesses from
an alehouse, and then found a
third who would marry them.
Their charge, they said, was two
guineas, which in those years
was worth about £20 in modern
currency.
The young man had spent all
his money on the journey. He
had exactly twopence left. He
gave the two coins to the "priest"
who was so drunk that he mis-
took them for sovereigns,
In the nick of time the couple
were married abter a gabbled
ceremony, and the irate father
arrived too late for, according
to Scottish law, his daughter was
now a married \'Olnall -- and all
her fortune had passed to her
husband,
Believe it or not, as recently
as 1923 it was possible for a girl
of twelve and a boy of fourteen
to be legally married at Gretna
without their parents' consent or
knowledge, And it was not until
1940 that the famous — and fic-
titious — "anvil marriage" was
outlawed,
Even to -day, however, run-
away couples can get married in
Scotland very easily, 1f they are
both over sixteen they need only
;pend fifteen days in Scotland,
after which they pay a shilling
to enter an application for mar-
riage.
A \%Telt later they can appear
before any registrar in Scotland,
in whose presence — and that of
two witnesses — they have mere-
ly to say that they accept each
other.
For this they pay the registrar
five shillings. If they wish, they
can buy a copy of their marriage
lines for another half-crown.
Even to -day, therefore, run-
away couples still arrive by aero-
plane, ship, or motor -car, hop-
ing that through the Scottish
marriage laws they can evade
awkward parents or guardians.
Many of these elopers are the
children of rich or famous par-
ents.
Not so the ostler of a tavern
at Spilsby, in Lincolnshire, who
eloped to Gretna with a local
girl, both having walked the 240
miles!
It proves that the current
walking craze started a long time
ago. Apart from the valiant Dr.
Ma.rbara Moore, to -day's walkers
are not noted for their success.
Several servicemen could not
even manage the 110 miles from
Birmingham to London. There
might have been a different end-
ing if they had been eloping!
A "Bomb"
To Save Life
The elderly patient had suf-
fered two coronary attacks. His
arteries were so clogged that the
blood needed to nourish his
starved heart could not flow
normally. And the doctors at
New York's Mount Sinai Hospi-
tal had tried virtually every
known surgical technique for In-
creasing the blood supply —
grafting new arterial tissues
from other parts of his body,
joining other blood vessels to
the coronary system, even open-
ing the heart and "irritating" its
surface with talcum powder to
stimulate circulation. All had
failed. The man was dying.
In this emergency, Dr. Ivan
D. Baronofsky, 42, the lean,
dark-haired surgeon -in -chief of
Mount Sinai, or'der'ed a new kind
of therapy — direct X-ray of the
chest to step up the heart's faul-
ty circulation, Over a period of
two weeks, the patient had three
doses of radiation (totalling 2,000
roentgen units) from the hospi-
tal's cobalt bomb. The blood sup-
ply to the patient's heart im-
proved, and doctors were opti-
mistic about his future. Since
then, some 40 other desperately
ill heart patients have had X-ray
therapy, and, as Dr. Baronofsky
put it recently, improvement
in each case was "beyond all
expectations."
Before attempting human X-
ray tests, Dr. Baronofsky worked
for two years with more than
300 laboratory dogs, creating
"artificial heart attacks" by clos-
ing off arteries of the heart, and
then administering X-ray ther-
apy. About 50 per cent of the
radiated animals lived; of those
non -radiated, only 10 per cent.
And the radiated dogs all show-
ed great improvement in circu-
lation.
With the support of the New
York Heart Association, Dr.
Baronofsky and his associates
began the first X-ray experi-
ments on human heart patients.
"You can't give a coronary pa-
tient a new heart," Dr. Baronof-
sky said in assessing his "still
experimental" heart - radiation
treatment. "You can't promise
to prevent another coronary at-
tack. But by improving the blood
flow to his heart muscles, often
you can. keep him from dying
— and that is our intention." —

Tomato_ Plants
That Resist Frost?
The Men who grow "love ap-
ples" —, that's an old name for
tomatoes — are thrilled, After
five years of painstaking re-
search, tomato plants which re-
sist up to nine degrees of frost
have been successfully cultivated
by an Austrian scientist,
It is normally unsafe for Bri-
tish growers to plant tomatoes
out in the open until mid-May,
but the Austrian experiment
may alter all that.
Some of the scientist's research
had to be conducted with the
use of artificial frosts. So suc-
cessful did it prove that seed
can now be produced to meet
any frosts during a normal Eng-
lish spring, say experts.
Austrian conditions are very
similar to those in England, so
it's hoped that in future it will
be possible to pick ripe tomatoes
there much earlier in the season.
No one knows who "discover-
ed" the tomato, although it's a
member of the sante family as
the potato and the tobacco plant
and is a native of South America,
The tomato was introduced
into Europe from America about
the year 1596 when everybody
called it the love apple. At first
it was grown there merely as a
pretty ornament outside houses.
Then someone tasted it, found
it to be good, began to sell it.
The tomato was called the lova
apple because of its supposed
power of "exciting tender feel-
ings," says a centuries-old book,
Why is the tomato so much
esteemed today? Because of its
high vitamin content, said the
research scientist, Dr. S. G. Wil-
limott,
"In its store of vitamin C,
which wards oPf scurvy, it is a
rival of the orange," he added,
"Tile Tomato also contains vita-
mins A and B, which fortify
the total vitamins in the. diet."

Paid For Taxi With
Crocodile Skins
Veteran Aussie crocodile hun-

recently — in court.
He hired n taxi to go from
Darwin to his Northern Terri-
tory camping grounds, forty-
seven miles distant. The driver
asked to see the colour of his
money, for he had previously
paid his fare in crocodile hide.
Palmer said that he had
money, tucked away in his shack.
But at the end of his long
drive, his rummaging proved
fruitless — there was no cash.
So Ginger offered his usual quo-
ta of crocodile skins to sleet the
fare.
But the taxi driver, feeling
himself diddled, had Palmer ar-
rested and grabbed his binocu-
lars as security,
Brought up before the Darwin
magistrate, the grizzled old cro-
codile hunter was acquitted. The
magistrate ruled that as he had
tried to pay his fare in crocodile
skins he had no intention to
defruad.

That Old Lombard
Really Could Pull
Some 'fun was generated here
a while back by the claims and
counterclaims about Paul Bun-
yan, the woodsman and lumber-
jack of note, whose birthplace
on the coast of Maine has fre-
quently been denied by states
to the west'ard, Since the gentle.
man's birth certificate was late-
ly discovered, attesting finally
that he was a Pine Tree native,
there is nothing more to be said
on this score, but somewhere al-
ong the line as Paul Bunyan fig-
ured in the discussions, some-
body mentioned the "Lombard,"
and here is a topic worth ex-
ploring,
In Maine, occasionally, you'll
hear the word Lombard used for
something huge, powerful, ir-
resistible, Gargantuan. "An old
Lombard of a hog!" The word
usually gets a down -East tone
much like "lumb'd." And, al -
thought a proper researchist
could soon enough dig up the
.facts; the word has already been
obscured by foregettings.
The Lombard was a steam trac-
tor invented and manufactured
by the Lombard family here in
Maine, and for a generation it
was the standard engine for haul-
ing long trainloads of timber out
.of the forests to the river or to
the mill. Like everything elso
that dealt with lumbering, the
Lombard also moved west, and
was important,
-The essential thing about a
Lombard was its traction. It did
'not have wheels, but had so-call-
ed caterpillar or cleat -track con-
tact, so it could grip on Ice and
generate great pulling power,
The modern bulldozer uses this
device, and here in Maine we
understand there were industrial
disputes over who owned the
idea.
By 1914 the old steam Lom-
bard had been brought up to
date so it logically became the
prototype for the British "tank."
The story is that a maneuverable,
armed and armored vehicle was
projected by the British, and to
keep it secret from the enemy
it was referred to in all respects
as a tank. A tank to hold water,
or milk, or something like that,
for the word sounded harmless
enough.
It worked, for when the "tank"
went into battle it came as a
surprise to the enemy, and It also
gave us a new word. The tank,
as a machine, was nothing more
than a wartime version of the
Lombard that had been hauling
lumber out of the Maine forests
for a long time.
In the beginning, the Lombard
was a horizontal steam boiler
mounted on t w o caterpillar
treads. It looked off-balance.
They had trouble steering it, so
almost at once they mounted two
pony sleds under the front end
and built on a cab where a man
could sit and steer with the sleds.
This gave it an even more gro-
tesque look. It had the appear-
ance of a mongrel railroad loco.
motive made by a local black-
smith from odd items, and the
front cab was utterly ludicrous.
They found they had to run a
steam hose forward to keep the
helmsman from freezing, as all
Lombard work was done in the
winter.
But the Lombard would pull,
Stretching back into the forests
for miles were carefully made
log -hauls. They were graded
like railroad beds following the
contour of the land, and in
swampy places they felled trees
to make corduroy, These log -
hauls were engineering feats in
themselves. When winter carne
they were rolled with snow
rollers, and then a special icing
crew got out before dawn and
sprinkled them tvith water, The
log -haul was a glare of ice,
Instead of railway cars, the
rolling stock was heavy sleds

whish would rack up great
weights of lumber and pulpwood.
When a Lombard hooked on, the
appearance was of a long freight
train moving majestically out of
the forest, its locomotive shroud-
ed in smoke and steam,
An interesting bit of lore con-
cerns the sleds, which were made
so they could be "knocked down."
After the feeds were unloaded,
all but one would be disassem-
bled and the pieces would be
loaded on that one. 'inc'Lom-
bard would trek hack into the
forest with its train all piled up
on one sled, This was because
a loaded train was tractable, but
the empty sleds didn't follow too
well, Back in the woods, the
train would be made up again
and loaded.
Somewhere in the Maine wil-
derness, long forgotten and long
since covered with moss and
forest debris, is a complete Lom-
bard train. The story goes that
the St. Croix was cutting, and
had a big operation under way.
The log -haul was iced, the train
was loaded, and the Lombard
started for the distant mill. But
it was payday, and the pen-
pusher brought word that funds
were not forthcoming, and the
eagle wouldn't scream on sched-
ule. The crew thereupon quit,
and the long Lombard train was
left right where it stood.
Winter broke up, the snows
were gone, and the Lombard re-
mained as was. The summer
rusted the boiler, and successive
seasons rotted away the sleds
and heaped fungus on the loaded
wood. Occasionally some cruiser
or hunter would wander by, but
it got so you wouldn't recognize
the thing for what it was unless
you know. Before long people
had forgotten the Lombard any-
way, and it didn't matter.
A couple of weeks ago the
Great Northern, biggest of our
independent paper companies,
announced that all of its Aroos-
took County wood, from now on,
would be hauled from the woods
on trucks. No more log trains,
no more river drives. The Lom-
bard steam tractor, mighty and
magnificent, has lent its mech-
anical prowess to the new diesel
caterpillar, and the bulldozer
now builds roads into .the for-

At parties, gentlemen should

TllLFAM FRONT
Familiarity, they say, breeds
contempt.
With this In hind, farmers are
warned that the contents of old
pesticide bags are potentially
dangerous,
Says J. Marshall of the Can-
ada Department of Agriculture
Research Station:
"You can't tell from the color
of pesticide, or from its smell,
whether it is a gentle thing or
a bad actor".
* • •
He explains that some. with
a vile stench, like malathion, are
not very dangerous; some, like
parathion, are, in their way,
more dangerous than dynamite.
Lead arsenate, one of the most
insidiously poisonous things that
ever went into an orchard, is
white and practically odorless,
while Sevin, one of the safest
insecticides, is also white and
practically odorless,
Mr. Marshall notes that a busy
farmer is likely • to turn at once
to another job after finishing
spraying, leaving the sprayer
parked with empty insecticide
bags lying around.
Or *_ *
"A single bag may still con-
tain enough insecticide to liqui-
date a whole family," he stresses,
The packages should be burn-
ed and anyone nearby at the
time should keep to the wind-
ward. Sonic of the dangerous
pesticides are vaporized by heat
and the smoke from the burn-
ing bags may be harmful if
inhaled. is * *
Some acutely poisonous com-
pounds such as TEPP may be
as likely to prove fatal from a
single dose as from repeated
but limited exposures (a single
drop of TEPP in the eye may
be lethal). Compounds such as
lead arsenate, although capable
of killing humans in a single
dose, are more likely to kill by
repeated small doses. The or-
ganic phosphate Guthion, if
taken by mouth, is almost as
dangerous as parathion, but it
is a safer insecticide than .para-
thion because there is less
danger of absorbing it through
the air. *
Mr. Marshall's final shot: "It
is not safe to trust to luck
when you tangle with a chemi-
cal bug killer; eventually the
odds will catch up."

Visitors flocked to the Central
Experimental Farm at Ottawa in
unprecedented numbers in 1950.
The farm, only one in Canada
completely surrounded by a
city, played host to 207 organ-
ized groups that consisted of
10,513 persons.
In addition, the annual Chry-
santhemum show at the green-
houses in November attracted
over 12,000 in one week. When
the tulips were at their "bloom-
ing best", upwards,.of: 3,000 peo-

Another major attraction, re-
ports L, J, Bellefleur of the

comes in April when the new
latnbs arrive, This is a popular
event with children and grown-
ups alike,
In 1958 there were 234 organ-

only 9,508 persons, During the
preceding year there were 126
groups consisting of 7,402 peo-

Scientists from 21 different

What Corn Meant
To Civilization
From remote antiquity the In-
dians of all parts of Mexico have
had a common heritage; that is,
wherever maize will grow - and
it will grow everywhere save
in the out-and-out deserts and
in the water-logged places I have
described - their staff of life
is the tortilla, that flat, leathery,
not pleasant thin cake which is
the Mexican bread, as well as
the simple instrument for con-
veying to his mouth such drip-
ping and delectable messes as
bean soup, fried beans, and gua-
camole.
The dry maize is prepared by
soaking it overnight in a solu-
tion of lime or wood ashes,
which removes the tough skin.
It is then ground into a wet meal
(masa) with a stone rolling pin
(mano) on that curious three-
legged washboard contraption
known as a lnetate.. • . Its prin-
cipal use is in the making of
tortillas, .,which are baked on an
eathernware griddle (comal).
From one end of Mexico to the
other the grinding of the masa
and the patting of tortillas is the
morning song of life. It has been
going on for such countless gen-
erations, and it is so thorougly
a part of immutable customs,
that I suspect that the vendors
of labor-saving gadgets and
those kindly people who would
emancipate the Indian woman
from her ancient drudgery will
not soon disturb the rhythm of
the tortilla makers.
It will be objected that not all
Mexicans are Indians, but to
most country people except the
fairly well to do the Indian tor-
tilla is bread. In the cities, to
be sure, and wherever electri-
city is not too expensive, the
motor -driven molino de nixta-
mal supplies masa for those who
can afford It, but this factory -
made substitute has to contend
with a popular usperstition that
masa does not taste quite right
unless, it is ground with mano
and metate.
This all-pervading heritage
goes back to that distant day
when the wandering seed gath-
erers of the highlands of Cen-
tral American (or perhaps Peru)
found a luscious grass, with
edible seeds growing in a single
small ear, No one has any idea
how long ago it was, nor do we
know how long the gatherers
were content to collect the wild
seeds, until one day' the acci-
dental sprouting of a lost ker-
nel or two .gave some forgotten
scientist the idea 'of planting
them, From that moment dates
the civilization of the Western
Hemisphere. The Inca, the Maya,
the Toltec, the Zapotec, the
Mixtec, the' Tarascan, the Aztec,'
all the numerous cultures of pre -
white. Middle America. in short,
owed their existence to the dis-
covery of corn, That discovery
was one of the most important
achievements of man kind any-
where, -Front "Many Mexlcos"

How The Tipping
Habit Started
If you wanted "to insure
promptness" of service in Lon-
don's eighteenth -century coffee
houses, you put extra money in
boxes marked with those three
words. This was the origin of the
word "tip," and the custom has
become so universal that an
estimated two billion dollars
changes hands in tipping every
year.
It is a fallacy that millionaire;
tip the heaviest. Some are quite
the reverse. Nathan Rothschild
once refused to pay ten dollars
to have an aching tooth re-
moved, but agreed to give the
dentist three dollars to loosen
it a little.
Some people have gained
reputations for their fabulous
tipping, the late Aga Khan was
one of them; he once gave a
chauffeur a ticking -off for being
five minutes late and the next
day gave the man $2.10 for good
service, Van -Lear Black, the
"Flying Millionaire," once tip-
ped a band -le .Jer $750 for pay-
ing a request tune, He left $500
to he shared among the staff of
a Glasgow hotel where he stay-
ed for one night.
An Indian prince tipped a
nightclub hostess $250 for the
pleasure of a dance. Another In-
dian maharajah left a bag of
sparkling jewels to be shared
among the staff of a French hotel
A waitress in Illinois profited
from a tipping duel between
two rvial businessmen, After
finishing a snack one of the
men boasted that he would
double anything the other left
for the waitress. When they de-
parted there was a total of $360
under their plates.
Miners who "struck it" rich
in the Klondyke gold rush were
generous tippers. One gave a
shoeshine boy a bar of gold
worth $5,000. Another left a bar-
maid a bag of gold dust worth
$7,500.
After halpiug an old lady into
a train and receiving threepence
for his efforts, a railway porter
rushed to the aid of a heavily -
laden American tourist. He car-
ried the man's luggage about
fifty_ yards and saw him into a
compartment. The reward he re-
ceived for this five minutes work
was a wallet containing $6,000 in
English bank notes!
Not all tips are in cash. An
ocean liner steward was once
given an entire fruit store by
a bad-tempered Australian busi-
nessman. It was in recognition
of the steward's tolerance.
A New York taxi driver was
tipped a three-year supply of
free cigarettes by a tobacco mag-
nate•
When a fire broke out on a
Norfolk farm one of the labour-
ers bravely led all the cattle to
safety. The farmer rewarded
him with twenty acres of land,
a house, several cows and a
horse.
Yet another fanner tipped in
kine, rather than cash. He was
so pleased by the way a police-
man kept a busy Yorkshire
thoroughfare clear for his cattle
to pass through that he pre-
sented the constable with two
fine milking cows.
"And what is a synonym, Wil-
lie?" asked the teacher.
"A synonym," replied Willie,
"is a word that you use when
you can't spell the other one."

LESSON
By Rev, R. 13. Warren, ILA., BM,
Before Governors and Kings
Acts 2.i: 1, 19.32,
Memory Selection: God hath
not given us the spirit of fear;
but of power, and of love, and of
a sound mind. 2 'Timothy 1:17.
Governor Felix and his Jewish
wife, Drusilla, heard Paul's wit-
ness for Jesus Christ on many
occasions over a two year per-
iod. Felix trembled as Paul rea-
soned of righteousness, temper-
ance, and judgment to come.
Like multitudes of people in
every age he postponed making
a definite decision to follow
Jesus Christ, saying, "Go thy
way for this time; when I have
a convenient season, I will call
for thee,"
Then came Festus as governor.
He rejected the plea of the
Jerusalem Jews to have Paul
brought to Jerusalem for trial
without a preliminary hearing at
Caesarea. When Paul was ask-
ed• if he would go up to Jeru-
salem for trial he made his ap-
peal to Caesar. He could expect
protection and a greater measure
of justice in pagan Rome than
in religious Jersualem. When
people reject Jesus Christ, a
blindness comes over them. Re-
ligious fanatical zeal can be very
malicious,
Festus must send with Paul
some declaration stating the
charges against him. But what
were they? Nothing had been
proven. When King Agrippa and
Bernice were visiting him he
brought Paul before them. Paul
excelled on this occasion. He re-
lated the story of his personal
surrender to Jesus Christ. Ilis
commission to the Gentiles was,
in the words of Jesus, "To open
their eyes, and to turn thein
from darkness to light, and from
the power of Satan unto God,
that they may receive forgive-
ness of sins, and inheritance
among them which are sanctified
by faith that is in me." Agrippa
was moved, exclaiming, "Almost
thou persuadest me to be a
Christian." Some think that
Agrippa was speaking in con-
tempt, meaning, "With but little
persuation thou wouldst fain
make ole a Christian." But whe-
ther his reply is to be under-
stood as an evasive cynical sneer,
or whether he spoke in sincer-
ity, it is clear that he had been
forced by Paul's logic Into a po-
sition where he could offer no
counter argument to Paul's con-
clusions concerning Christianity.
Paul's answer shows that he ac-
cepted Agrippa's words as sin-
cere, and who could be a better
judge than Paul who saw and
heard. Agrippa's conclusion con-
cerning Paul was, "This man
might have been set at liberty, it
he had not appealed to Caesar.

bearers Together with God." Nothing
of any importance in the Kingdom of
God has been hewn or carried on with-
out prayer. We are priviledgod to he
a link in this :real chain of Prayer
with 145 countries. What does the King -
dam of God mean? Jesus answered
that question very simply: "The King.
Giem of God is like leaven, which a
woman took and hid in three measures
of meal till the whole was leavened,"
The speaker ended her address by say
ing, "the leaven of our lives could
transform this Dominion of Cantina
and help the whole world. We need
today a vision that will make us at-
tempt high and noble things in, the
Spirit of Christ. Where there is no
vision, people perish, Let us try Paul's
recipe, a little leaven, a bit of trust,
the recognition that every man is a
child of God and the faith that is God's
way, in the long run must be man's
way too. The speaker closed_her in-

WHAT
CANIDO
FOR YOU?
Your bank manager is easy to meet
—and a good man to talk things
over with. Not just because he knows
a lot about Nanking, but because he
can be counted on . to apply that
knowledge and experience to your
particular need.
To him, banking is more than dollars
and cents, more than figures in a
ledger. To him, banking is the
opportunity to work with people-.
through bank services to help with
your problems, your hopes and plans.
That is what 11e has been trained to
do. That is what he likes to do.
You'll find he's a good man to know.

Bundle Of Washing
Was Royal Baby
Bright among the crown jewels
that form the official Regalia of
the British realm there shines
the crown of Queen Mary of
Modena.
A lustrous miracle of rose -cut
diamonds and enormous pearls,
it ranks as one of the oldest
pieces of the Regalia and has
never been worn in modern
times. Yet it enshrines the me•
mory of a beautiful Queen Con-
sort who longed above all else
for a child who would one day
hold the British throne.
Mary of Modena was only
fourteen years old when she
heard that she had been chosen
to marry a widower who was
twenty-six years her senior, "But
who is this Duke of York?" she
asked through her tears. "And
why should he want to marry
me?"
Schooled in a convent ever
since she was nine, the lovely
young Italian princess knew no-
thing of life outside the grey
walls of the nunnery. A courtly
ambassador poured jewels into
her lap and explained that her
bridegroom was brother of none
other than King Charles II of
England,
"It mai well be that the Duke
of York will one day be king,"
he added, "And then you will
become Queen of England!"
The widower Duke—then forty
years old—had pored over the
portraits and dossiers of half a
dozen European princesses be-
fore he selected the innocent,
timid child in the convent.
The marriage was readily ar-
ranged and, in the event, Mary
of Modena was actually married
to James, Duke of York, without
seeing him. According to the
custom of the t`. ,te, the bridal
ceremony was performed by
proxy,
Then Mary set out for Eng-
land. At every stage of the jour-
ney, she wrote to the Reverend
Mother, her heart still more with
the nuns than with her husband.
Yet Mary was to prove a faith-
ful and loving wife, She set to
work to ]earn English and when
she found that her husband
longed, above al], for a son who
would become heir to the throne
she soon shared his ambition.
By his first wife James already
had two daughters, Protestant
In upbringing, but a son could
dispossess them in the succes-
sion. Soon the court was in a
fervour of excitement at the
news that Mary was expecting a
child.
When it proved to be a girl,
Mary had the infant baptized at
her bedside but King Charles
insisted on an official christen-
ing with full ceremonial. "De-
spite her two half-sisters," he
declared, "she might yet grow to
be a Queen!"
It was not to be, for the baby

died at nine months old. But
then began a series of baby
dramas that kept the nation in
constant suspense.
Mary was already preparing
for a newcomer and her second
child arrived with such unex-
pected speed that few official
witnesses were present. All over
London staid councillors hurried
out of nightshirts into ceremon-
ial robes in order to rush to
Mary of Modena's bedside,
Again the baby proved to be a
girl, The following year a baby
Prince arrived at last . . , but
not for long. It is sometimes
said that his elder half-sister,
Princess Anne — later Queen
Anne—quickly dreamed up a
fiendish means of his disposal,
As a boy he robbed Anne of
her prospects of the throne. But
Anne was just recovering from
smallpox and, either thoughtless-
ly or with malice aforethought,
she left her sickbed to rush to
the baby's side.
The nurses incurred the blame
when, instead. of peals of rejoic-
ing, the bells tolled his funeral.
With equal folly Mary of Mo-
dena saved his baby clothes for
the next arrival. "Other women
give their children to the world,
I give mine to the angels!" she
consoled herself when yet an-
other h•rby--and after still an-
other—went the same tragic
way.
, Five years passed and men
whispered that Mary's hopes of
a living son for the throne could
never be fulfilled. The issue was
becoming crucial. Ring Charles
died, whispering of Nell Gwynn.
Janes was Ring and Mary —
walking in golden shoes over a
path strewn with flowers—was
crowned Queen at his side.
Then, before Coronation year
had run its course ,she jubilant-
ly announced that, once again, a
baby was on the way, In the
coffee-houses gossips gave open
cries of disbelief, Far from sup-
porting the Protestant succession
of his daughters, Anne and Mary,
it was argued that James wished
to foist an impostor on the na-
tion. Perhaps a Catholic baby
would be smuggled into the bed-
chamber.
The rumour of a plot was so
rife that no fewer than eighteen
peers and privy councillors
crowded into the natal room in
St. James's Palace, A gaping
crowd of sixty-seven people
jostled in the anteroom outside.
Curtains were drawn around
the bed while the officials stood
at a distance but at the first
sound from the Queen they rush-
ed to the curtains. Pitifully she
begged the King to hide her face
with his head and periwig.
Then, unmistakably, there was a
baby's cry,
The shout passed from one to
another. "A Prince! A Prince!"
The King was so delighted that
he promptly knighted the doctor
who knelt beside the bed,
A lively, lusty infant was car-
ried through the crowd in the
adjoining room but still there
were doubters who averred that
.. maidservant's new-born baby
had been smuggled to the Queen
in a warming -pan.
Next day the story took a
different turn. The real baby, it
was said, died in the night and
'was replaced by a changeling.
The simple truth was that
King James had already declar-
ed his intention of rearing the
boy as a Catholic—and men
were ready to believe anything
they heard rather than accept a
Catholic successor to the throne,
Louder grew the voices of
rumour and a petition was
drawn up complaining that a
spurious prince had been foisted
on the nation. To stem the tide
James set up a special tribunal
of inquiry.
A string of witnesses gave
precise evidence of the birth.
One witness had even seen fire
in the warming -pan that was
supposed to have held the spuri-
oue baby.
Still the nation was dissatis-
fied and William of Orange was
asked to "invade by invitation."
Married to King James's eldest
daughter (by that monarch's
first marrige) he eventually ac-
cepted the British throne,
The rest is history. Mary of
Modena's infant son never gain-
ed the crown. At five months
'old, wrapped up to look like a
bundle of washing, he was hur-
ried quietly into a rowing -boat
on the Thames and so transfer-
red to a ship for France.
Ile never reigned and histor-
cans to this day still talk of him

Modern Etiquette
By Anne Ashley
Q. What is the proper way
to introduce friends to one's
parents?
A. "Mother, this is Tom Fill•
mare," or, "Dad, this is Kathy
Rogers." It is not necessary to
mention your parents' names,
Q. It a young man is taking
a girl out to dinner, Is he sup-
posed to ask her where she
would like to eat?
A. Not usually. It is the man's
privilege to decide beforehand
where they are going,
UP THE LADDER "I wont some respect, 1 want to be an actress." Those words set the stage
for Marilyn Monroe's walkout on Hollywood in 1955 at mid -point in her first decade in films.
She's shown, left, at New York's Actors Studio where she worked hard to make her dream
true. Result: a series of film hits, including the box office smash, "Some Like It Hot," in which
the captivating Monroe smile, center, was a sensation. Marilyn, right, as she prepares to

The long wait is finally over
and we have another little prince.
Isn't that wonderful? I am so
glad the baby is a boy because
with two male heirs to the
throne poor little Anne will have
a better chance to lead a normal
"little -girl's" life. When Edward
VIII abdicated my greatest
concern was for the two wee
girls, Elizabeth and Margaret,
From the schoolroom they were
suddenly thrust into a world in
which they became heirs to the
British Crown and all the in-
cidental responsibilities that
naturally followed, Until now it
looked as if Anne, too, as second
in line, would be subject to a
strenuous life of tr aining. Now
however, concentrated prepara-
tion for royal duties will centre
more on the young princes than
their sister, I would imagine the
Queen will also be glad that her
small daughter is twice removed
in the line of succession, She has
reason to know the difference it
can make,
Of course, until the birth was
announced interest last week was
mainly on the Queen herielf, 1
think many Canadians felt a cer-
tain responsibility for her wel-
fare because of the strenuous
tour of Canada during the un-
comfortable heat of last sum.
mer. But now we can really re-
joice, According to all accounts
the Queen is fine: the baby is a
boy and everyone is happy,
We were busy quilting again
last week, I took my needle -
threader with me and you.should
just have heard the comments
"I'd do a lot more sewing if
I had one of these contraptions
. , . the most marvellous .little
machine I ever saw , .. no need
to suffer from eye -strain with
one of these around." I rather
think the store from which I
bought the ,needle -threader will
be deluged with calls,
Another little sewing job 1
undertook last week was mak-
ing "bundle -wraps" for otir local
hospital, It was my first attempt
at that job and 'before I got the
hang of it I was almost saying
my prayers backwards. You have
to be so exact in measuring to
ensure a perfect square that I
began to think a special course
in geometry would have been
quite and asset. Bundle -wraps
are for the purpose of wrapping
surgical instruments, and, since
they are so necessary, I suppose
anyone who can sew should at
least do her 'share, In my in-
nocence I accepted thirteen to
make up — about seven too
many for my peace of mind.
In the middle of bundle -wraps
and quilting I also_ had a W.I.
meeting of conveners and execu-
tives here. I thought there
might be about eight, instead a
baker's dozen turned up. One
item on the agenda was the pur-
chase of a Tweedsmuir History
scrap -book. That started the ball
rolling — history -wise, I wish I
could tell you some of the stories
that were told, Babies born at
hone under primitive conditions;
churches consecrated with whis-
ky — and the remainder consum-
ed by the workers! Parties, and
weddings and barn -raisings, The •
nineteenth century was truly a
colourful period in Canada, And
how the ladies loved repeating
stories they had heard from par-
ents or grandparent '1 don't

book. Partner was working down
in .the basement — or should I
say he was hiding -out? After-
wards he said — "What in the
world was all the talking about?
It was a continued 'clack -clack'
all the afternoon?" Well, you
know how it is — and I can
quite believe it did sound rather
awful downstairs.
Of course there was also plenty
of talking at the quiltings —
sometimes concerning trading
stamps and the illegal use of
Hansard, None of the quIlters was
in favour of stamps but what
grieved them most was the fact
that Byrne Hope Sanders was
mixed. up in it. My generation
remembers her best as the one-
time popular editor of the
"Chatelaine" magazine, However,
I find what is known about a
person depends a lot upon age,
Dee said — "And who is Byrne
Hope Sanders?" I was shocked
until I remembered that at the
time Miss Sanders was editor of
"Chatelaine" Dee was more in-
terested in movie - magazines.
Today I am equally ignorant
about what constitutes a "beat-
nik."
As for trading stamps I. am
still opposed to them, Last De
cember a new supermarket
opened near here and I have been
saving stamps as an experiment,
I have about half a book. In
three months I may have enough
to get a stuffed toy — value
about $2.50. Trading stamps —
who. says women want them?
Apparently only those interested
in the manufacture of stamps. If
any supermarket announced even
a one -cent decrease on ALL mer-
chandise shoppers would beat a
track to its door, How many
times must we women say we
don't want stamps before we'll
be believed?
Shot To Health
Thousands of people, hit by
recent heavy floods in Pakistan,
owe their lives to the "miracle
Injectors" being used for enler-
gency Immunization.
More than 75,000 Karachi re-
sidents have been treated by the
pistol -like injectors to protect
them against threatened epide-
mics of cholera, typhoid fever
and influenza.
When the Pakistani Minister
of Health toured the flooded
areas, he ordered the instru-
ments 'following their inventor's
claim of more than a thousand
immunizations in one hour,
The injector, which resembles
a pistol complete with trigger
and barrel, does not have a
needle to carry the serum under
the skin. Using a hydraulic prin-
ciple, it shoots the dosage, and
makes a hole only slightly larg-
er than the diameter of a human
hair.
When the point i; pressed
against the skin, and the trigger
pulled, a measured dose of the
serum is shot painlessly into the
flesh. The injector has no needle
or other equipment that requires
sterilization after each use, and
the patient's arm does not have
to he sponged first with alcohol
before the injection.
A three-year-old and his fa-
ther were being pushed towards
the rear of a rapidly filling ele-
vator. A kindly lady' turned to

afraid the little boy will , be
squashed?"
"Not at all," answered • the
fond parent. ":Ie bites." •

Tamed Wild Rhinos
With loaf Of Bread
Everything was ready in Lon-
don Z o o for transferring two
great rhinos from one part of
the gardens to another, Strong
leather collars had been made
for each animal, and to each col-
lar thick ropes had been at-
tached.
Six men took a firm grip on
the ropes, while another walked
ahead carrying a bundle of hay
in the hope that the animals
would follow him. The gates
were opened and the two rhinos
followed the hay at a steady
trot.
Then they suddenly spotted
the crowd of men following
them. They began to twist and
turn in an effort to get free.
The attendants clung desper-
ately to the ropes as the ani-
mals plunged this way and that.
In a short time the ropes were
entangled about the rhinos' legs,
increasing their ePforts to the
', point of terror. The keeper in
charge of the operation took to
his heels and ran.
Then a man, dressed in a frock
coat and top hat and carrying
a large loaf, walked calmly to-
wards the animals, He broke
off a piece of the bread and be-
gan feeding them - in no time
the rhinos had calmed down;
The man, Abraham Dee Bart-
lett, superintendent of the zoo,
signalled the others to begin
pulling the ropes. As they did
so he walked away coaxing the
animals with more bread. From
n walk, the rhinos broke into a
, trot, then into a gallop. Bartlett
had his work cut out to keep
ahead of them as they cantered
into their new quarters. Then,
as the pair thundered after him,
he dropped the bread and just
managed to clamber over the
rails in time to avoid their
charging bodies, .... . .
No other London zoo superin-
tendent achieved such fame and
popularity as did long -serving
Abraham 'Bartlett ,' . , that was
just one of the many scrapes he
was Involved 'in. 'Lacking most
of the amenities and equipment
at the disposal of Inodern zoo
officials, the problems that con-
fronted him called for consider-
able ingenuity and thought, But
he was seldom stumped, His
alert mind' was usually able to
cope with the most awkward of
situations,
Some time later the female of
the rhinos was involved in 'fur-
ther trouble. Her constant en-
deavours to tear down the iron
fence around her den caused her
liorn to grow forward. As it
Increased in length it projected
beyond her nose, thus making
feeding off the ground more
and more difficult. It would have
to be sawn off, Bartlett decided.
But how?
Fortunately, by this time she
had become quite tame and most
(lays on his rounds he would
stop for a few minutes outside
her cage and stroke her head
through the bars. He practised
caressing her with one hand just
above the eyes, which made her
close them, while with the other
hand he pretended to saw the
base of the offending horn with
his walking stick.
After about a week, when the
creature seemed quite used to
this ritual, Bartlett decided he
could safely substitute a small
saw for the walking stick, en-
listing the aid of one of the
staff to keep her eyes closed. It
took ten minutes to get through
the horn, but the rhino took no
more notice of the sawing than
it had done of the make-believe
cuttiVg with the walking stick,
Another rhino that developed
horn trouble proved much less
amenable to treatment. It had
diverted the growth of its horn
by constantly driving it against
------•the-bars -of its cage with the
result that it curved backwards
until the point began to pene-
trate the skin.
Persuasion was out of the
question, because this was a bad-
tempered specimen. There was
nothing for it but to secure each
df, the creature's legs with a
stout rope and draw it close to
the bars. Even so it succeeded
in breaking three saw blades by
violently shaking its head from
side to side before the operation
could be completed.
Another rhino had a narrow
escape from drowning, and was
only saved by prompt action
from. Bartlett. It was a cold win-
ter's morning, and the animal
was shut outside for a short
time while the keeper cleared
out its indoor den. Its pool was
frozen over, and both pool and
ground were covered with sev-
eral inches of snow, making it
impossible for the rhino to dis-

in Windsor, England.
tinguish between the two. As it
wandered around it put its feet
on the ice, and its• three -ton
bulk went head over heels into
nine feet of water.
The alarm was sounded, and
up ran Bartlett. Appraising the
situation at once, he sent for
ropes and barrowloads of gravel.
The latter was put on the slop-
ing side of the pool while the
ropes were fixed around the
rhino's body. Now came the
tricky part of the rescue.
To haul the animal out of the
water would not be a difficult
matter, but in its extreme fright
Bartlett feared it might run
a m n k and injure the keepers
who had rescued it.
Some quick thinking was call-
ed for it panic was to be avoided.
He arranged that the sliding
gate leading out of the enclo-
sure should be left open just
wide enough to let out one man
at a time, but not a rhinoceros,
and the men were ordered to
make a dash for it as soon as
the rhino had been hauled up
the slope, Unfortunately, there
was a small miscalculation which
could have turned the whole
rescue operation into a terrify-
ing experience for everybody
concerned.
The first man to run for the
gate was of ample dimensions,
and he became firmly jammed in
,the gap, leaving the other
twenty-five men shut in with a
panic-stricken rhino.
Fortunately, what might have
been a disaster proved nothing
more than a frightening experi-
ence, because the rhino merely
stood and looked at the men as
they released their comrade and
then made good their own es-
cape—possibly his way of show-
ing gratitude for the rescue!
Sought Legendary
"Hill Of Copper
IS
How lucky can a humble min-
eral prospector be? A lucky
strike can swiftly lift him from
pauper to millionaire. But in the
case of South African -born pros-
pector Mr. J. A. Bester, this
stroke of luck drastically altered
both his bank balance and his
face.
A shotgun accident a few years
ago resulted in severe facial da-
mage. But, though badly hurt
and disfigured, he refused to
abandon his hunt for precious
metals, taking his wife and fam-
ily to live with him in a tent
to avoid contact with other peo-
ple. Southern Rhodesians spoke
of hire as "the faceless prospec-
tor."
Lured on by the legend of a
secret "hill of copper" hidden
in the Zambesi valley, he follow-
ed one hunch after another.
He met disappointments all
the way until, at last, he got
the strike of his dreams, a new
vein of copper, Now, it is said,
the Anglo-American Corporation
is making a bid of $1,500,000 for
his claim.
Whatever the final settlement,
he intends to give up his tented
life and go to Europe to have his
face rebuilt by plastic surgery.
Q. How can 1 give my cat a
dry bath?
A. By rubbing some cornmeal
into the fur of your pet, and
then brushing or combing the
coat.
Toward Perfection
Only eleven years ago, no man
had ever thrown the 35 -pound
weight more than 60 feet. Then,
after Jim Scholz of Army sur-
passed the 60 -foot barrier, the
record began increasing, gradu-
ally, until last year Bob Backus,
with a supreme effort, reached
66 feet 23/4 inches, That was the
listed world record as the A.A.U.
Indoor meet got under way in
New York last month.
Bacl(us's record did not last
long. On the second of his six
throws, Harold Connolly, who
won the 1956 Olympic hammer -
throwing title at Melbourne,
strained, spun three tines, and
hurled the 35 -pound weight an
incredible 71 feet 21 inches. The
70 -foot barrier, seemingly unat-
tainable a dceade ago, no longer
existed, (To measure the impact
of Connolly's feat, consider a
miler running his specialty in un-
der 3:50,)
"Harold's throw," said Ed Flan-
agan, the Boston University track
coach who has worked with both
Connolly and Backus, "comes
the closest to absolute (physi-
cal) perfection I ever hope to
see."
At New York, Connolly was
not the only athlete moving clos-
er to perfection: Irvin (Bo) Ro-
berson, a 24 -year -old Army lieu-
tenant from Fort Lee, Va., broad -
jumped 25 feet 91/2 inches, break-
ing the world indoor record (25
feet 9 inches) set by the great
Jesse Owens a quarter of a cen-
tury ago. Roberson, who never
fulfilled his potential as a foot-
ball player at Cornell Univer-
sity a few years ago, seeined
disappointed. "I should have hit
26 feet," said Roberson, who did
26 feet 2 inches at the Pan-Am-
erican games last year.
-John Thomas, the 18 -year-old
Boston University sophomore
who was "too tired to do his
best," leaped 7 feet 2 inches,
half an inch higher than his own
indoor high -jump record.
Al Lawrence, an •Austrailian
who set the indoor 2 -mile "record
a month ago, raced 3 miles in 18
minutes 26,4 seconds, fully ten
seconds faster than the mark set
a year ago by Bill Dillinger,

ding to lake place in Kinburn United
Church the first part of April.
A ten minute overtime period was
played and Jackson tallied the winning
goal at the three minute mark. From
that point on Lucknow didn't stand a
chance as Blyth kept them, hemmed
in their own end for the entirety of the
game.
Marksmen for the locals were, Elliott
and Coultes with two each, Foster,
Lawrie, Smythe and Jackson, each
scored once,
An added attraction of the game was
a fi lit amongst the fans, which ap-
parently originated when some of the
Lucknow fans insisted on throwing the
(tats of several Blyth fans onto the ice
surface. Officials were forced to turn
off the arena lights to restore order
and get the game under way. By all
rel'orts on 'Tuesday morning, Blyth not
only won the hockey game but also
reignad victo•iou.s in the fisticuffs,
The next time the Legionnaires take
the ice it will be against either Arthur
or Erin, who are now engaged in a 2
out of 3 series. If successful in tills
next playoff, the Blyth boys will be
1VOAA Intermediate C Champions,
which would certainly be a record for
any team playing their first year in
organized hockey. Keep in their fight-
ing boys -- we're sure you can do it.
It is expected that the first game of
the final series will he played in the
Blyth arena next Wednesday 'night,
tveather permitting. DON'T MISS IT.

A Royal Birth
Excites Japan
The official's voice, to which
all Japan was listening, was flat
and dry, his words formal: "This
afternoon at 4:15 at the Imperial
Household Hospital, Her High-
ness the Crown Princess honour-
ably effecting delivery, the hon-
ourable birth of a son occurred.
The exalted mother and child
are honourably healthy."
Thus, over transistor radios
and television sets, in offices,
sushi (fish) shops, and homes,
did the Japanese people learn
last month of the birth of a
first-born, 5 -pound, 9 -ounce
princeling to Princess Michiko,
the miller's daughter who mar-
ried Prince Akihito last April
10. As a male child, he would
be second in line to succeed to
the throne (as is Queen Eliza-
beth's new princeling in Bri-
tain).
All oVt 1 Japan, the common
people bowed low to each other
and uttered "0-medeto gozai-
masu" (Congratulations). Ifun-
dreds gathered at the great Ni-
ju Bashi. (Double -Bridge) en-
trance to the palace grounds
where some knelt in prayer and
others shouted "banzai" for the
benefit of newsreelmen. At the
Kabuki Theatre in Tokyo, lead.
ing actor Ennosuke changed into
formal haori (knee-length man's
kimono) and announced the feli-
citous ttyusu (news) from the
stage. Nearby, at the Asaktts
a
Kokusai Theatre, chorus girls,
wearing
sequins, ns,
high heels and
little else), led the audience in
banzais. A sudden sharp earth-
quake added to the excitement.
During this period, Prince
Akihito behaved as tradition de-
manded. Before the birth he had
left his wife at the hospital with
an admonition to "be brave" and
then had gone to his temporary
Shibuya residence 2 miles away.
His first paternal duty was to
participate in the ceremonial
presentation of a 7 -inch dagger
(which symbolizes the infant's
ability 'to defend himself).
By then some newspapers
were "irreverently" ;ailing the
Prince "Oyaji" (Daddy) and
only then could he visit his fa-
mily. Newsweek's Tokyo bureau
chief Ray Steinberg reported
that "the Prince strove manfully
but unsuccessfully to suppress
his smiles of pleasure as he
was driven to the hospital. And
there, live television cameras

dows of Michiko-san's room,

We got it at last! Our share
of stormy weather, I mean —
including thunder and lightning,
No need for me to go into de-
tails — the storm was so wide-
spread almost everyone had his
share of snow -filled roads and
driveways. The only difference
was where and in what way dif-
ferent people were affected by
the storm. Partner got a call
Thursday 'night to look after two
little boys whose mother had
been delayed getting home and
there was no telling when the
father would be home. The mo-
ther filially arrived holie about
eleven, half frozen, having walk-
ed quite a piece from a stalled
car. The father didn't get home
until three -thirty in the morning
— stuck eight times coming from
Melton, a distance of fifteen
miles. Next morning everyone
• was having a great time — snow
shovels and tow -trucks being the
order of the day. Partner was
helping here and there but I was
quite content to watch proceed-
ings from the inside of doors
and windows, thankful I didn't
have to battle the elements. We
didn't get any mail next day —
for the first time in three years.
However we don't know even
now whether the mailman
couldn't get through or if it was
the morning paper that didn't
come.
Now, of course, the storm is a
thing of the past but it will be
some time before the snowbanks
show signs of deminishing, so the
men of the family will have
plenty of opportunity to continue
exercising their muscles. One
thing I must say, our township
should be congratulated for its
prompt snow -removal job. When
we got up Friday morning the
streets had been ploughed out.
In the High Park district where
Dee lives the streets haven't
been ploughed yet and cars are
still getting stuck,
But all the news has not been
of storms and disasters. Like a
burst of sunshine through the
clouds came the news of Princess
Margaret's engagement to Mr.
Antony Armstrong -Jones, news
that will please people of the
Commonwealth just about as
much as the birth of the Queen's.
third baby. Margaret has had her
own special place in the hearts
of the people ever since lier
mischievous "little -girl" days
Later there was sympathy and
admiration for her because of
her unfortunate love affair with
Peter Townsend, A good many
people felt she should have
been free to follow the dictates
of het' own heart but many won- .
dered whether Townsend was
really the right choice for our
lovable and fun -loving princess,
Now that episode in her life can
be forgotten as we look forward,
hoping that Princess Margaret
has made the right choice this
time and that she and her fian-
cee will share a lifetime of joy
and happiness, unhampered by
shadows of possible succession
to the throne.
During this past week I have
been reading a most interesting
book and it just makes me won-
der how any of us can Imagine
we have tit mind of our owns It
is called "The Hidden Persua-
ders" and deals primarily with
ways and means of advertising.
It shows how advertising agen-
cies go to work persuading the
public to buy goods that are of-
fered for sale whether they want
them or not, Psychologists_ go
into supermarkets to study the
buying habits of customers. Tjiey
find out what kind of packages
have the best sales appeal and
why it is easier to sell "2 for
291+" rather than 150 straight.
They have discovered that a
shopping list is almost a thing
of the past only about one in
five carry a list. Instead women
methodically go up one aisle and
down the next, trusting that the
goods displayed will remind them
of things they need. Thus most
shopping is "impulse buying"
and makes the packaging of
goods specially important to the
manufacturers. Eye appeal is a
main factor in selling one brand
more than another.
In furnishings acid electrical
appliances advertisers deliberate-
ly set out to make housewives
discontented with what they al-
ready have. New models must
therefore have that little extra
something to make it a little
more appealing than what our
neighbour has next door — re-
frigerator, washing machine or
what have you. There must also
be a pleasant association of ideas
connected with the product that
is advertised, And you know
those child -size •shopping carts?
They are put into stores spe.
cially to encourage children to
shop on their own, to collect
toys and packages that appeal
to them, And then you know
what happens , . , poor mother
gets to the cash register and she
either has to pay for what lit-
tle Johnny or Mary has "bought"
or risk a scene in the store!
Well, I leave you ,to think it
out for yourselves. When you go
shopping do you really buy
what you need, and what you
know is good, or is your choice
influenced by advertisers telling
you that "this is what all mod-
ern housewives should have in
their kitchens". In other words
do you shop with an open mind,
considering only the needs of
your family — and the contents
of your purse?" It is an honest
question — dare you give your.

Modern Etiquette
By Anne Ashley
Q. Just haw does a girl pro-
perly refuse a date with a 'Loy?
A. Above all, be polite about
it. Simply say, "Thank you very
much for asking me, but I won't
be free that evening." Even if
you ARE free, there's no need
to make up an excuse. You can
be very cordial, but vague,
Q. If a double-decker sand
with seems tod big and unwieldy
to handle with the fingers, isn't
it all right to eat it with the
knife and fork?
A. No; this type of sandwich
must be picked up. Only on the
"open-faced" type of sandwich
do you use knife and fork.
A New Cure For
Boyish Shrillness
Like most other boys Ills age,
when Winston Mallory was 14
and a high-school sophomore in
Gloucester, Va,, his voice began
to change. The trouble was that,
instead of becoming rich...and
masculine, his voice turned into
a shrill falsetto. He consulted
doctor after doctor, and they all
told him: "You'll outgrow it."
He never did.
Finally Mallory, now 21 and
working as an interior decora-
tor in New York, visited the
small National Hospital for
Speech Disorders, The hospital's
Dr, Roy W. Franklin, after about
an hour's conversation with the
youth, began to manipulate
Mallory's larynx with his hand
simply applying pressure to
it, during which the sounds that
carne out were pitched lower,
After n few moments, the doctor
took his hand away and asked
Mallory to read aloud from a
magazine, Mallory opened his
mouth to speak, and the words
rolled out in a sonorous, deep
baritone,
"It was never very Peal, any-
way," Dr. Franklin commented
last month, "In cases like this,
the problem is to convince the
patient that he really has a nor-
mal voice, With larynx manipu-
lation we help about ten patients
a year, but no cure has been as
rapid as Mallory's."
As for Mallory
himself, h ef, h
e was
back on the job fairly brimming
with new \\ con:idenc
sand self-
respect. "illy old voice had no
strength to it," he explained in
full, resonant tones. "Now when
I go into a showroom and ask
for something, I get it."
Paint Your Own
Masterpiece!
The ultimate in crazy art is
on the way, M, Jean Tinguely,
a thirty -four-year-old Parisian
artist, has designed a machine
with the aid of which any mem-
ber of the public can paint pic-
tures by the dozen,
It works on the coin -in -the -slot
principle; electrically controlled'
brushes dip into various coloured
paints, which may be selected on
a push-button panel, and then
smear the colours over the can-
vas to produce the "picture."
Many a so-called connoisseur •
has been tooled by the automatic
art, and already its inventor is
meeting stiff opposition from the
struggling artists who are now

My qualifications
as aP.
ar-
tisan are even better: I'm the
press agent for "My Fair Lady,"
the envy of every brave in my
tribe,
The show has been a press
agent's dream from the start. So
hysterical was its reception in
tryouts in New Haven and Phila-
delphia that producer Herman
Levin, fearful these hallelujahs
might boomerang into a "this -
had -better -be -good" resistance in
New York, suggested I muffle
my drums. This was a startling
switch. Conventionally I'm
urged •to clash the cymbals. So
frenzied was the clamor for
tickets -following the New York
premiere that the thwarted went
berserk in their efforts to escape
charges of being socially un-
touchable.
Press agenting "My Fair Lady"
has been a luxurious assignment
because I've had the unwitting
assistance of hundreds of vol-
unteers.
An obscure Russian named
Victor Louis put "My Fair Lady"
on Page One when he announced
in a letter to Lerner and Loewe
that he would like the full
orchestral score to the musical,
gratis. He already had translat-
ed the libretto and intended to
put on the show in Kiev and
Sverdlovsk, he said. For this
bravado 30 -year-old Victor was
blasted editorially all the way
from Miami to Moose Jaw,
Julie Harris, one of our top
actresses, recently puffed the
show's publicity when she con-
fessed to a columnist that she
had auditioned for the role of
Eliza Doolittle two years ago
when the management was look-
ing for a successor to Julie- An=
drews,
For almost three years ,"My
Fair Lady" enjoyed a free ani-
mated outdoor ad provided by
the hundreds who lined up at
the box office each day before

Pet Monkey Made
Owner Live In Cage
The 11ndergrads gaped wnen
the new man arrived. For out
of his coach were unloaded not
just n few suitcases but cage af-
ter cage of live animals, in fact,
a small zoo!
Brilliant scholar and animal
lover, Frank Buckland soon
found that his rooms at Oxford's
Christ Church were far too small
to house such a varied collection
so he took over half the court -
Apart from Jocko, his pet mon-
key, there were marmots, guinea
pigs, squirrels, dormice, numer-
ous snakes, tortoises, tree frogs,
a chameleon and tui eagle. As a
treat these were all in turn
"invited up" to his rooms for
a few hours' freedom.
Had the cages been secure,
Oxford would probably have be-
come reconciled to its unusual
guests, but Frank's pets proved
extremely skillful at breaking
bounds and he soon got used to
receiving frantic messages beg-
ging him to collect one or an-
other of them from its latest es-
capade.
One morning the marmot had
taken possession of the Chapter
House just before the Chapter
was due to meet; and on another
occasion the eagle stationed it-
self in the chapel doorway, at-
tack,'rg everyone who approach-
ed and preventing them from en-

Tiglath Pilesncr — Tig for short.
.• Tig.soon became one of Oxford's
great characters.
Everywhere Frank went Tig
went, too, correctly dressed in
cap and gown! He was to be seen
at parties as well as boating on
the river. When the British As-
sociation met in Oxford, Tig
went along in full academic chess
to see what he could make of
the learned debates,
Tig's popularity, however, did
Hot extend to the college authori-
ties who were not very happy
about the prospects of being
mauled by a now fast growing
and very powerful young bear.
So "ole morning Frank had an
'urgent summons from t.lie Dean.
"Mr. Buckland," the Dean began,
"I hear you keep a bear in col-
lege, Well, either you or your
•. bear must go!"
And so the bear went, but not
too 'far away. Buckland had
friends at Islip, who rashly ag-
reed to take in Tig, not realizing
what a handful he was. With Tig
also went the eagle, which had
recently disgraced itself again by
suddenly appearing at morning
communion in the chapel.
• Tig, however, had no intention
of submitting to complete cap-
tivity. All kinds of cages and the
most ingenious locks were tried,
but to keep him shut up seethed
virtually impossible. Within a
few clays each new cage or each
new lock had been mastered, and
the whole surrounding country -
aide soon learned to fear his next
sudden appearance. •
On one occasion he found his
way into a neighbour's stables
and panicked the horses, and on
another he appeared in the kit-
chen and ate a leg of lamb the
cook was roasting while she bar-
•ricaded herself in the scullery
and screamed for help.
'At last Frank's friend: decided
they could no longer be held
responsible for Tig's behaviour,
to he reluctantly agreed that
Tig must go to the zoo where
there were cages strong enough
to defeat even his ingenuity.
In later life Frank Buckland
became one of the most distin-
guished and best known natural-
ists, of his day, and built up a
great reputation as the Inspector
of Fisheries for England and
t.

European figure skating crown four times for Frenchman
Alain Giletti, Here, Alain, 20, flashes gay blade at Garmish-
Partenkirchen, Germany.
Wales, During his travels about
the country on official duty his
wife usually accompanied him.
Sharing her husband's love of
animals, she was never happy at
the thought of fishermen getting
into trouble through breaking the
various fishery regulations it
was Frank's job to enforce, Once
on a visit to Great Yarmouth he
announced at dinner that early
next morning he would slake a
tout' of the fish market in order
to catch and summon dealers
whom he believed were selling
undersized crabs.
Returning to his hotel at break-
fast time he announced that his
fears had proved groundless. Not
a single undersized crab had
been exhibited for sale in the
whole market..
'Phis showed, Frank boasted,
how efficiently his orders were
being respected by the fishing
community. It was not until
breakfast was over that Mrs.
Buckland confessed that she had
gone down to the market before
ifishermen d
him towarn n the ft. lel men an
dealers of his proposed visit.
Devoted though he was to
their various pets, they did some-
times cause him anxiety. For
same years his wife had a pet
monkey of which she was par-
ticularly fond. She did not like
to see it cooped up in a cage,
so most of the time it was free
to go where it liked about the
Blouse,
Its favourite play room was
Frank's study, and if it could
gain entry when he was not there
it had a wonderful time tearing
up his papers and correspond-
ence and upsetting ink over the
debris.
Mild remonstration with his
wife produced. little effect. In
her view Frank was to blame
for leaving papers lying around
when they should have been
gathered up and packed neatly
away.
A friend at last provided the
solution to the problem. On his
advice Frank had a large cage
constructed in• the centre of his
study. In this he could shut him-
self away with his work, and
lock it up when he left.

A Passion For
Pinhead Art
Except for a tiny spot of colour
011 the head, the pin that Jules
Charbneau held up to the mag-
nifying glass looked like any
ether he alight have fished out
of the huge 'oak desk :11 his San
Francisco off i s e. B u t seen
through the glass, Charbneau's
pin became transformed. There,
on thecad wasfull-blown
h a ill bio
wn
portrait of Abraham Lincoln,
.complete with wing collar, black
tie, beard, and mournful expres-
• cion.
'")'his was done by an artist
in Ecuador," explained Charb-
neau last month. "To keep his
arm and body steady, he prac-
ticed yoga and for a brush he
plrlcked a hair from his own
arm. However," continued the
76 -year-old art appraiser, "he's
not going to paint any more like
it because his eyes have gone
bad, Another miniaturist, a elan
who lives in Buenos Aires, went
completely blind after doing
ig
eight portraits on heads of
pins." -
As he spoke, the paunchy
Charbneau, who owns one of the
world's outstanding collections
of miniature and subminiature
art, began pulling Lilliputian
objects from his pockets. From
one came a seven -piece solid.
gold coffee service which he held
between the thumb and forefin-
ger of one hand. Fro11 another
cane an exquisite French cameo
which showed a pastoral wood-
land scene no bigget than an
almond, and an ivory plaque
on which some 800 Chinese
character were engraved 00 a
11/e by :!1 -inch area.
Among the other items • in
Charbneau's collection of 33,000
miscroscopic objects are an In.
dian basket a bit larger than a
grain of sand; pictures of Queen
Elizabeth, Pope Pius X1I, and
Windsor Castle done on a sesame
seed; 200 elephants carved out
of ivory with a rat's tooth, so
small that they all fit into a
cherry pit; a rifle a :d pistol
that fire minuscule ammunition;
and a 3 by 4 -inch tortoise -shell
box. When the filigree lid is
opened, a bird with natural fea-
thers pops out and flaps its
wings while a miniature pipe
organ plays a little song.
Charbneau's favourite • item,
however, is a tiny piece of
etched glass which contains his
name, address, and the Lord's
Prayer. "The 294 letters cover
an area the size of a needle
point," said Charbneau. "Using
the same ratio, you could put
the entire 3,560,480 letters of the
Bible into a space 1/49 of an
inoh square. I think it's the fin-
est example of microscopic writ-
ing in the world."
Although lie earns his living
as a professional appraiser,
Charbneau refuses to be pinned
down on a value for his collec-
tion, most of which is housed
in an 'H -bomb -proof vault that
11e had built in an unused rail-
road tunnel near Son Francisco
back in 1953. "Just say I've got
the world's largest," he coyly
tells his questioners, Whatever
value it may have, Charbneau's
collection of microscopic tree -
tures will probably wind up as
one of the main attractions in
San Francisco's Palace of Fine
Arts when ..that ugly old build-
ing is refurbished two years
hence.
