Only 350 anis da \'il.c;. till ;, (1 tut}, received a \i.,:t 1ronl the one's magistrate, France'co di 13allol- onlco del Gioconda. lie asked Leonardo to paint a portrait of his wife in an attempt to console her for the loss of a little daugh- ter. The artist was reluctant. Ile did not paint portraits and he was very busy, But he changed his mind the illoment's he saw the magistrate's wife. At the ase of twenty-four, she was the opposite of the slender women with delicate features and narrow shoulders, then so much in vogue. Mona Lisa was a woman of full contours. Above all, she had a most captivating smile, '1'o fix the smile, he staged an unusual setting. In his studio, musicians played instruments which the himself had made; singers and clowns performed while Mona Lisa posed. The pos- ing session lasted a year—then da Vinci vas ready to begin work. A few years later, Francis I of France bought the painting from da Vinci for 4,000 gold crowns. But it was not merely a portrait of the wife of a Floren- tine magistrate that he bought, Mona Lisa had become an ideal tmcge of beauty. An Italian art historian wrote: "At one and the sante time, gentle and perverse, cruel and compassionate, gracious and fe- line, she smiles." Many people have attempted to solve the mystery of the Mona Lisa smile. Every clay the Louvre permits artists to copy the treasure, confident that a perfect imitation is impossible. Shortly after da Vinci's death, the Florentine masters of his school believed that by unveil- ing the Mona Lisa they would rob her of her secret. So they painted the magistrate's wife in the nude. Dozens of these pictures were painted and sixteen are in exist- ence to -day, but not even the best—in a museum at Chantilly —has succeeded in revealing the secret of the magnetism of da Vinci's masterpiece. The Marquis de Sade said of her: "The Gioconda is the very essence of femininity; she shows reticence and spirit of seduction, devoted tenderness and avid sensuality." Whatever she has, Mona Lisa certainly impresses tourists. When viewing any other picture in the Louvre they cpmment freely. But when in front of the Mona Lisa they remain silent, in awed admiration. Purple No Longer Only For Big Shots Purple is popular this fall. Coats, suits, dresses — even underwear — are appearing in this colour once reserved for tlhc Roman emperors. Symbol of pomp and power, this imperial colour has a long history, Fifteen centuries B.C. the Phoenicians made purple dye. They had discovered the secret of a Mediterranean shellfish. When its yellow juice was ex- posed to the sun it changed through all the colours of the spectrum till it finally remained a brilliant and unfading purple. But they had to crush so many thousand shellfish for so little dye that purple was only for the rich and mighty. The high priests in the tem- ples of the Israelites wore pur- ple robes and so did the Greek generals, The Roman emperors, Caesar and Augustus both de- creed that none but the em- peror might wear the purple. Under Nero, the wearing and even the sale of purple were punishable by death. In those earlier centuries there were only two authentic shades of royal purple — a dark bluish shade, and the deep red Tyrian purple. 'today the world of fashion has at its disposal a variety of shades from the palest cyclamen to the most vivid fuchsia. BIG TIME IN ARIZONA — Carefree, Ariz., a half-hour's drive north of Phoenix, possesses one of the world's largest sundials. The arm is 60 feet long and rises to 50 feet in' height, Face of dial measures 90 feet in diameter with a 284 -foot circumfer- ence. VERY HIGH FASHION — This moon suit is being tested at Re- public Aviation's space laboratory. The aluminum garb would weigh only a few pounds on low -gravity moon. Tripod drops down to permit astronaut to rest on a small suit inside. Was there ever a nicer Indian summer than this? Mere we are into Oct. with roses still in bloom, to say nothing of petunias, snap- dragons, salvia and other sum- mer blooming annuals. Wonder- ful weather for working outside too, although in some ways it is a hindrance. Flower beds need to be dug up and bulbs planted, But who wants to pull up plants by the roots while they are still in bloom? So, in company with a lot of other home gardeners we are letting nature take its course. Not that 1 worry about outside work just now. I am still paint- ing. I told you, didn't I, it would be like a serial story? I have got three rooms done, finished the spare room Saturday. Now I'm ready to start on the den. With all the books and papers I've got in it, that's going to be quite a job, However, Partner is always on hand to help—with everything except the painting. Shifting furniture, cleaning floors and windows and putting rubber feet on the stepladder so I don't break my neck! Last week, working part time in the house, also gave him a chance to watch the World Series, He probably would have done that anyway but with indoor work to do he was able to make a virtue of necessity. My, how time goes when one gets enthused with a job. I was ten days overdue with my li- brary books and didn't even know it until I got a reminder card. I took them back in a Murry—and brought out four more. One in particular I find most interesting. It, is called "The Nature of Retirement" by Elon 1-l. Moore, Ph.D. I can heartily recommend it to all thinking persons before, and after, they reach the age of retirement. it deals frankly with the many problems that confront people who, after working hard all their lives, have finally reaehed the stage when they can take life a little easier. Having more or less passed the crisis of adjustment ourselves we can recognize the wisdom of the advice given in this book—and wish we had read it sooner. 11 sort of explains us to ourselves. Sometimes I have felt a little guilty that we have been able to settle down so happily in a new environment. I felt it sav- oured a little of disloyalty to old tines and old friends. But ac- cording to this book it is the only sane approach: that the older one gets the more tt is necessary to make new friends and yet not forget the old. 11 cites the case of a woman still living at ail. By the time she was 70 all the intimate. ()lends she held kr evil at 50 had passed on. So, at 80 she would have been a very lonely person had she not made new and younger friends. But she did, and they helped het to mainlnin an Inter- est in the present and to main- tain a cheerful and uncomplain- ing outlook 00 file, Her story reminds me of a cousin I visited in England five years ago. She was 86, living as a paying guest in a home for the aged. It was a beautiful place, with accom- modation for about 20 guests. My cousin's only complaint was that she got so tired of living with old people all the tints! I know that I also have readers of this column who are just as wonderful as these two elderly ladies. Dr. Moore also points out that the wife of a retired man—bus- inessman or farmer—often finds it difficult to get used to having a man around the house all the time. That used to be my trou- ble too, Not that one really objects—it's just hard to get used to. On the farm when Partner started chores I knew he ivould be gone a couple of hours. Out in the field he would be away until the next meal. Since we retired, although busy most of the time, he is often in and out of the house. That inter- rupts my w'or'k as we stop and talk, maybe just about the work he is doing outside. It just means that I accomplish less now than I did on the farm, But how I longed for those interruptions when Partner was in hospital just recently, At a time like that you wonder why they ever bothered you, Anyway I never did share the sentiments of a friend of mine whose husband is reaching the age of retirement. She says—"I'm dreading it. I'll just go crazy with Jim around the house every day. He has no hobbies—I know he'll be bored and miserable," Incidentally, I'm going to phone my friend and suggest she read the book I have mentioned. Well, we had an unexpected pleasure yesterday—Sunday. We went to see the March Past of the Girl Guides, South -East Tor- onto Area, at Withrow Park, Il was the first time we had seen Daughter in her official capacity as District Commissioner' — and we were proud of her. She join- ed the Guides when she was about twelve and her interest has grown with the years. Among the companies taking part yesterday there was a small group at the end of the parade that brought a lump to my throat. . . a group of deformed and retarded children of various ages, most of them in wheel chairs. Dee says some of these unfortunates are as keen on Girl Guide activities as normally ac- tive youngsters. Obviously cour- age can sometimes be of the spirit more than the flesh. "Nature works her own won- ders," says a professor. Yes, who else would have thought of growing a fly swatter at the end' of a cow? Guessing Ages Is Her Business Elizabeth RAO can take a piece of beans from an old temple, the hide from a walrus, or the charred remains of an ancient camp site and tell you how old that temple, that wal- rus or that camp site is. She can do this up to 40,000 years with a margin of error of only 1 or 2 per cent. Miss Ralph is head of the Car- bon 14 laboratory of the Univer- sity of Pennsylvania and re- ceives material from the Arctic, Central and South America, and the Near East, wherever the university museum's archaeolo- gists are working. "In the Arctic this dating process helps us learn more about the migratory habits of the ancient and modern 1 Eski- mos," said 1liss Ralph, "This is also the area which gives us the most trouble, Because of the frozen ground our men work quite close to the surface, Bones and antlers they find are often contaminated by ground water. "Carbon is only a small trac- tion of the total elements of a bone and is held in a loose mole- cule easily replaced. The ground water may contain dissolved limestone. Unless all of this is removed from the object, it will appear older than it is. Or the water may contain humus which would suggest a younger date." Carbon 14 laboratory pliiM an important part in the uni- versity museum's diggings at Tikal, Guatemala. Here there was a dispute between the his- torians and the astronomers. They were trying to correlate the Maya calendar with our own. Through counting the Car- bon 14 content in a temple beam, Miss Ralph was able, to say, "This calculation is correct." An interesting task is yet to come from the Near East where university scientists are working on a sunken Bronze Age ship off the coast of Turkey. Word has come back that the riggings are still intact so it is hoped that there will be enough to place the age of this ship, writes Erma Perry in The Christian Science Monitor, It costs about $150 to date an object. The material must be treated first with acid to remove inorganic carbon if limestone has been washed in. Then sodi- um hydroxide dissolves humus or other intrusive particles. After washing and drying, the material is burned. Gases are run through a long series of traps which collect impurities, both electro negative and radio active. The presence of other gases is then reduced to one part per million. This very pure car- bon dioxide iS then put into a proportional counter and the amount of Carbon 14 Is recorded.

On board, Mary Cornish, an atU',,e- tive music teacher, was one of ten escorts to ninety British chil- dren who were being evacuated, as a war -time safety measure, to Canada. 11 was September 17th, 19.10, Then, shortly alter 1(1 p,nl„ U - hoar struck. The torpedo crashed illttn the ship and plotted, All the lights went wit, causing chaos, Within forty ntin- tites,Nthe great hip, on which rn many parents' hopes had re. -.1 - cd, was b1a.zing fore and aft, 1t slid slowly into the depths ni the Atlantic. 13oats n'crc lowered int. the dark, turbulent sea, For soft time maty Cornish tried to com- fort tcrri'iicd children, "It's all right. It's only a torpedo,' she cried. This was a queer rca„ul - once to offer, but the explosion might have been roused by mines or a low level bomb at- tack. Finally, having extricated her charges from the debris choking "C" deck, 'and done what she could to cams them, she found herself in a lifeboat with six (mall boys, thirty-two Lasears from the ship's crew, and five British members of the crew. She was the only woman in a grossly overcrowded thirty-foot lifeboat. A course was set tor Ireland. The Lasears crouched on the thwarts or huddled on the flow of the boat. They soon became excessively morose. No one knew how they might react if un- nerved by exhaustion or expo- sure, Mary and the boys wet e separated from them and moved into the bows. Few of the children had warul clothes. Most of them wore only pyjamas under their coats and blankets, Some had no shoes. The oldest was thirteen, the youngest eight. Mary Cornish herself was only flimsily clad for the ordeal. Apart from feeling intensely cold, she was soon violently sea- sick and suffered from cuts and bruises sustained while recovet- ing children from wrecked ca- bins, But day after day she gal- lantly kept up the children's spirits, telling then) stories of outlaws, cops and robbers, At :Bight, she massaged their limbs and fingers, easing the numb- ness, Huddled together, they got pone sleep, though their lips were cracked and they craved food and water, The hours passed slowly -- very slowly. But Mary made ore the children never noticed, Illhe organized quizzes and com- petitions, anything to keep their minds occupied. When ever a chance of rescue appeared Mary Cornlsh's white nllp was disfalat'ed from the mast tread. On the fifth day a steamer righted the boat, drew close, and then pulled away at full steam, probably believing that the boat- load of survivors was a German submarine in disguise. U-boats sometimes used this trick as a bait. The survivors 'felt like giv- ing in to fate then but, inspired by Mary Cornish's example, they clung to life, On the eighth day, with water supplies almost exhausted and one of the boys dangerously de- lirious, rescue came. A Sunderland flying boat on Atlantic patrol spotted Mary's slip and quickly summoned a destroyer to the scene. Everyone in the boat was rescued; all were alive, but some only just so. Torpedoing the City of Ben - ares brought death to all but thirteen of the ninety children who sailed on her. For her part in this epic rescue act, Mary Cgrnish was awarded the B,E,M Characteristically, . she s a id that the decoration King Georg!! VI gave 'her was undeserved, ke she had done no more than try to discharge her duty as a children's escort.

But 1 guarantee lhcy don't know my story, learn- ed in Paris when the Crown was preparing its case against hint, I learned things that did not come out at Bottomley's trial, Lind they convinced nue that if ever there was a case that proved money wasn't everything, that case was the life and more particularly the death of iloratio Bottomley, To evade the gambling laws of Britain, Bottomley had been running his Derby sweepstake itt ti Swir'c city, and on his return to London he broke his journey in Paris and entered the Grand Hotel, where I was drinking a nightcap with the editor and au- thor, Frank ITarris, Bottomley came in wearing a top hat and an old-fashioned frock coat. Ile stopped by our table, and Harris said: "Where have you come from, Bottom- ley Horatio answered: "I've just got in from Lausanne, Frank, where I cleared 020,000 with my sweepstake," "That's a lot of alone;," said Harris, "but just think how much more you plight have if you ran these things honestly, After all, you know. Bottonllev, honesty is the hest policy'," "Yes," mused Bottomley, "it is, if you can afford it," That sar- donic quip was, I think, the key to the puzzle of Horatio Bottom- ley's life, He made up his mind he could never afford to be wholly honest. Bottomley was born in 1860 in Hackney, London, a district for which he sat later as a member of Parliament. His father was a tailor's cutter, but the family lived �n the border -line of pov- erty and at an early age I-Ioratio was admitted to a Birmingham orphanage, Despite his limited education, he was a born orator and he developed a wonderful knowl- edge of the law. Had he been an honest man instead of a rogue there was really no limit to the heights he alight have attained. During the first world war Bottomley was editor and prop- rietor of a weekly paper that was much read by the Army at the Front in France. Bottomley used to go 10 France to talk to the men in their rest. billets. And during a period after the battle of Passchendaele, when matters were not going well and there was a certain un- rest in France, Mr. Lloyd George considered quite seriously ask- ing Horatio Bottomley to be- come a member of the Cabinet! Bottomley would certainly have accepted — for what Irk could have made out of il, be. cailse Macy Was his only inter+ est, and his knowledge of hove to acquire' it could well hay tnade him a multi -millionaire i only he could have kept to the GROWNUP "OUR GANG" — Thirty-five years of night club act- ing could end only one way — invasion of TV, The Wiere Bros. (Herbert, Sylvester and Harry, left to right) bring their zaniness to tel;:vision in a wettly comedy series, pati: of honesty, writes harry J. Greenwall in "Tit -Bits." Here arc some details of I-lora- tio Bottomley's crooked dealings which came to my knowledge when the Crown was preparing the case that eventually sent Bottomley to prison for seven years, In his weekly paper he ran a competition. Every week the names and addresses of the win- ners were published — people who were apparently living in humble circumstances. But the lawyers for the Crown had the curiosity to track down all the winners and, strangely enough, the stories of each win- ner were almost exactly alike. Each winner's address turned out to ho a sm:,l1 pub down a side street in a provincial town. When the lawyer's representa- tivc inquired for Mr. Blank, the reply hardly varied at all. "Oh, Charlie Blank, he was a commercial traveller who lodged here for a couple of nights, then he received a telegram. He came into the bar here, and said to us: `Look at this, I've had a bit o' luck; I've won a competition this week!' Then he stood drinks all round, packed up and went off," The lawyer's representative followed the trail, The winner was always a "commercial trav- eller," the only thing that chang- ed was his name. In other words, the weekly "winner" was an employee of Bottomley who put all the entrance money into his own pocket! Then take this very cruel swindle, There was a respect- able private bank in London called-Farrow's Bank, Bottom- ley inveigled Farrow and other directors into his nefarious fi- nancial schemes, and, as a result, Farrow and other directors of the bank went to prison, but not before the bank had been used in what became the great Derby swindle, In Paris Bottomley ran a sort of bank managed by an English- man who had previously been employed by a famous tourist agency and had left them under a cloud; it was that type of man that Bottomley preferred to em- ploy; The "hank" i11 Paris was used to pay out prizes in Bottomley's "Victory Bonds" wherein the "prizewinners" discovered that their so-called pr i z e s were worthless Polish bonds. Bottomley asked his Paris manager to find him a crook, French for preference, who could take part in his proposed Derby Sweepstake swindle, In Marseilles, the Paris man- ager found the type of man for, whom he was looking. The man had a police record, but what was Important to Bottomley, he had a blind mother and it was she who was declared the win- ner of the Derby sweepstake which was said to have won her thousands of pounds. The crook brought his blind mother to London where she was to receive her prize money at Farrow's bank, The money was )landed to the crook and was supposed to be in notes of one hundred pounds each, and these the rogue handed over to his mother, But instead of being hundred -pound notes, they were five -pound notes! On his way up, Bottomley al- ways, believed in having the best of everything, and it always tasted better if someone else paid, He was seen wining and dining at London's most expen- sive restaurants, he always at- tended the first nights of the plays. Horatio Bottomley had many woolen friends, mostly in the theatre, but one, Peggy Primrose, was faithful to him until the end. After he came out 'of prison and tried in vain to make a comeback she provided him with food and obtained a pathetic en- gagement for hit) on the stare of the Windmill Theatre. And site was at his bctt,idc when on May 26th, 1933, he died in a public ward of the Middle- sex Hospital, .:. CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING .

Originally a sport for sten only and usually associated with smoke-filled billarci halls bowl- ing has become a family game, The industry—for that is what it amounts to—caters particularly to mothers, In the luxurious lanes of suburbia there are res- taurants, sports shops and even closed circuit TV so Mom can both bowl and baby-sit. Bowling is especially popular in Canada. It has been estimated that one in every eight Canadian bowls at some time each year. And T, F. Ryan of Toronto made it easier for women to join in the game. He invented five pins. In 1909 customers at his Tor- onto bowling club approached Tommy and asked hint to de- velop a game that would be faster—and one that their wives could play, He and his father, an expert woodworker, decided to shave a set of 10 -pins down to smaller size. They reduced the number pins to five, added a rubber band and used a smaller hall. Thus the most popular game in Canada, five pins, was born, In this modern .game the ball travels clown the lane at speeds of up to 40 miles an hour. The pins have to be strong to with- stand this treatment, Only the heart of top quality maple is used, and after the pins are shaped they receive four coats of tough, durable industrial finish- es. These gleaming modern pins are different from the crude pins used in the middle ages—actual- ly the history of bowling goes back even further, to the Egyp- tians in 5200 B.C. Medieval churchmen establish- ed a special game. Missiles were hurled "against sin" which they represented by p ins called "Heidi" or heathen set up at one end of their cloisters, Parishioners were given a ball to roll at the heathens. If they scored a good hit they were liv- ing a clean life; if not, they had to attend services more faithful- ly, It's been reported that church attendance took an upswing' witit each game.

Dropped Fork Means A Visitor's Coning Friends are where you make them, and one of mine is resident manager of the famous old Poland Spring House, Known to the hotel trade as "white ele- phants," these ancient Victorian restorts poses a perennial conun- drum as to their success, for while they were money-makers back in the other times, the vacation habits of the nation have changed. It seems, now, to be something of a challenge to people like Rod Johnston to see if they can make the places hum again. And ono of the means is to snag all the conventions they can get filling the rooms that semi not to fill so well as they did hack when C'rc,mpie was a lad. Rud has been doing all right, and the day I chopped in on him with foresight enough to arrive at mealtime, he had two con- ventions going simultaneously, and the dining room was a hearty place. Somehow, because of the vast size of this old re- sort, two conventions can meet 'without disturbing each other. 1 believe something like 850 people were thus enjoying their meals when we went in, What happened seemed amus- ing to me at the time, for a waitress dropped a fork right at my back. I saw her coming, tray piled high with the remove, on her way to the kitchen, Luckless- ly, the fork slipped just so, jingled to the floor, and bounc- ed around. Without the slightest pause, this girl stooped, held the loaded tray in perfect balance, scooped the fork up in her free hand, and kept on going. As she gathered it in, I heard her say, 'Oops! Company's coming!" As far as Poland Spring Hotel matters, the company corning would turn out to he the Maine Retail Lumber Dealers Associa- tion, which was booked two years ago, and several other simi- lar organizations, It was the hearing of this old adage in this place which made it amusing, Dropping a fork has always been considered a sure sign, in Maine anyway, that some guest would arrive. I4b•. grandmother, who had many such folklorish ideas, used to sit around after she dropped a fork and wonder who it could be. She'd run through the family and friends, guessing, which had any reason to arrive, and sometimes would even guess who it might he. "It would he Alice," she said one time. "Alice hasn't been here in ages, and she'd be the one to come without notice." So, of course, Alice arrived the next day, ,.n.2' Crandmother said, "1 knew you were coming — drop- pEd a fork." 1 do remember one time Grandmother dropped a fork, and nobody came. After a couple of days went by, she used to go over to the window and look down the road, expectantly. She was positive she'd ,sec a buggy corning, with somebody in it to fulfill the omen.,But nothing happened, and somdoubts must have crept into her mind. I re- member she seemed preoccupied, and forgot to pour the froth off the milk for the cats. But then it happened. It was a tramp. A real, old- fashioned tramp of the kind we used to get. The kind who, in the first place, tramped. They came wand, ring: up ;ha road 111 complete leisure, nr\,'r in the slightest hurry, willing to he wherever they were when they got there. They had a respcctah1e philosophy, granting one or two things, and were not resented. Perhaps the times were more agreeable, and the tramp was ac- cepted as some kind of link with the rest of the world. Not too many people did come by. A tramp would clean up a shed, or split some wood, They frequently showed considerable skill in some of their chores. They knew how to handle an axe, anyway, and lacking any- thing else for then to do a farm always had a woodpile to be manicured, A tramp knew just about how much wood he ought to split for his sapper, and he'd do twice as Hutch again if you let him bed down in the haymow with the expectation of breakfast. Afterward, they'd move on up the road. They never stole anything that 1 knew about, or abused us. Grandmother used to judge thein one frc.n another by the way they washed up. She couldn't abide a dirty tramp, If one splashed water about a good deal, and used plenty of soap, he attracted het' charity accord- ingly. Once a tramp asked Grandma for a cake of her home- made soap, saying he meant to wash his clothes al the next brook. She was delighted, and regarded hint as a high type of tramp sure to make a place for himself in the world and amount to something. Anyway, the poor tramp show- ed up just as Grandmother's dropped fork was about to ex- pire as a reliable augury. Ac- customed to sitting beneath the trees in the dooryard, and laying his dishes on the hack step when he had finished, this tramp was bewildered at the reception he got, Grandma brought him right into the kitchen, where she pour- ed hot water for his ablutions and set him a place at the table. He didn't get any handout on one of the old dishes — he got the full meal, right through to pie. And when Grandfather cane in from the barn and found this disreputable character sitting in state at the family board, as good as one of the family, Grand- mother answered his quizzical look by saying simply, and end- ing the matter, " 1 dropped a fork!" By John Gould in The Christian Science Monittor. Human Heads Are Changing Shape How du you look these days? Have a peep in the rnirror—still the sane old familiar face? Now have a look at your offspring— aren't they better looking. It's a fact that we are slowly becom- ing better looking than the people of past centuries. In the skulls of our remote ancestors the forehead sloped backwards. Today that form of head is becoming rare. The long head—not the "big-head"! — is becoming more usual nearly everywhere in the world, The high cheekbones and sharp features that used to char- acterize many aristocratic Eng- lishmen are "toning down" into the modern face type, Less than 300 years ago aquiline noses were very common in Britain, Since then our noses have grown longer and straighter.

On a barren peninsula high in the northwest corner of Green- land, the icy, rocky terrain is broken by a crescent of four giant steel fences. Each of them stands fifteen stories high and stretches more than the length of a football field, Last month, from one of tile Invv buildings nearby, Cori., powerful bursts of electrical, en• e'gy were sent out pulsinp against the arc -shaped fences. With this. the free world's first missile -detecting radar station went into full operation. The x125 million installation, near Thule, is part of the BMEWS network — Ballistic Missile Early Warning System. The four fences, in reality re- flecting antennas, are designed to bounce the multimillion -watt bursts of radar waves high over the North Pole. Between pulses, the antennas reverse their rule and listen fon' reflections that would reveal intercontinental missiles rising from Russian territory 3,000 miles away, The Thule station is one of three links in the BMEWS chain. The second, being built at Clear, Alaska, will be finished next summer. In 1962, a third statior, will be completed at Fylingdales Moor, Yorkshire, England, What will the U.S. get for the $1 billion these sentinels will finally cost? At the most, fifteen minutes warning of a Soviet missile at- tack; just Hine enough to give the Strategic Air Command a chance to get its bombers oil the ground and ready to retali- ate — scarcely time enough for anyone to do much else. But while BMEWS stations are being built, the U.S. is develop- ing a system that will make then obsolete — the Midas satel- lite, By late 1903, the Air Force hopes to have orbited a series of these snoopers which could spot a missile when it is launch- ed, extending warning time to a half-hour. The ultimate answer to lha missile is, of course, an anti- missile missile. Sometime next summer, an Atlas' missile will be launched over the Pacific from California, From 3,000 miles away, a U.S. Army Nike -Zeus missile will take off • to try to intercept it, But even if it au: - coeds in downing the Atlas, the missile's future is duubtluh The Nike -Zeus system would cost $15 billion, yet it would be un- able to handle a massive barraga of ICBM's and would also be open to all sorts of decoying and dodging tricks. As one Washington observer put 11: "'The question is whether it is worth 1)15 billion 10 develop an anti-missile system that might not even work." — From NEWSWEEK, Teenagers And Charge Accounts Charge accounts for teen age customers is the newest wrinkle in retailing — and one of the most controversial. A recent survey by Seventeen magazine of 217 department and specialty stores reported that 63 per cent had some form of credit plan for teen agers, In 1959 the figure was 32 per cent. The Wall Street Journal notes that stores have both .immediati and long range reasons for pro- moting credit among young buy- ers, who in some cases need be only 12 but usually must be ld or 10. Grabbing a bigger share of the already big teen age mar- ket is one reason. Getting young people in the habit of buying at a particular store is another. "Educating" young buyers in the use of credit is a third. One blue eyed 17 year old Charlotte (N,C,) girl finds a charge account "wonderful" be- cause it enables her to buy things "right quick" when she wants them. She says that a charge account has taught her how to manage her part time job money. Maybe it has. But of our mid- dle aged way of thinking, re- quiring a teen ager to wait and save is a better way to teach money management than encour- aging buying "right quick". We believe, too, that parents should be the teachers rather than cre- dit manager's. Or is it the parents who allow their teen age sons and daugh- ters to have charge accounts who should be given instruction in the proper use of credit? -- Mil- waukee Journal, ISSUE 45 — 1960 FASHION HINT UII!illi gd,''NIIII �'IggII iI!I��I r1); '!y 41,1! , iIltn ob!

Sparked by \V, P. Watson, hive Stock Commissioner for the Provin of Ontario, a move- ment for such a project has been unedety; i.' for some time. The Royal Agricultural Winter Fair will act as sponsor of the Canadian Agricultural hall of Fame and all agricultural groups and organizations across the nation are. being urged to active- ly support this undertaking. Object:; of the proposed Cana- dian Agricultural Hall of Fame include recognition of individuals for outstanding contributions to agriculture, the establishment of a portait gallery and the promo- tion of interest in and the study of agriculture generally.

"Jus .1 little extra attention to ho weights on the part of producers would return divid- end." That'.; the conclusion of Elgin Senn, chief of the grading sec- tion, Livestock Division, Canada Department of Agriculture, after analysing the results of a nation- wide survey of hog carcass grade.;. It showed that 23.5 per cent of grads B carcass were either 11 little too light or a shade too heavy to meet grade A require- ments. This fault will hit a hog producer's pocketbook e v e n harder now that a '$3 quality premium is being paid no grade A carcasses and none on grade A carca.ie;, * Mr. Senn estimated that on a 1G0 -pound carcass, the cash dif- ference between the two grades would be $4.60. To measure up to grade A standards, the carcass must tip POPCORN — Virginia Spencer holds an ear of corn shaped and colored like a strawberry. It was grown of the research nursery of the Missouri Farm- ers Assn. The hybrid is called, appropriately, strawberry corn. the scales hetwceit 115 and 1711 pounds. The survey pointed up th, fact that 13.0 per cent of alp grade P carcasses weighed be- tween 171 and 180 pounds, and 9.7 per rant between 125 and 13.1 p quiets, "Ov•'rfinish" — tan much fat --- is a leading fault in grade 13 carcasses and has been stressed as such for many years, accord- ing to Mr. Senn. Actually, 89.9 per cent of the carcasses in this grade were reported to be over - finished, Another 17 per cent were "off -type.'" — too short, round - ribbed, or with heavy front ends. '. * * An encouraging downward trend was indicated in the number of grade 13 carcasses with a pigment fault — colored hairs. The percentage in Eastern Canada totaled 1.7 and the per- centage in Western Canada was 3.0, Just six years ago, these figures were 10.3 per cent for Western Canada and 5,9 per cent for the East, Concludes Itlr. Senn: "Pro- ducers who pay a little closer attention to the market weight of their hogs will find it pays off." A new oat variety, Russell, was released this year. In tests made in Ontario dur- ing the past four years, Russell generally oulyielded the rec- ommended varieties in all areas except the northern part of the province, • • • Russell is similar to Garry in its resistance to stem rust, crown rust, smut and other diseases and is more tolerant of stem than the currently grown varieties. It has a larger kernel and a lower percentage of hull than Garry, It has shorter straw and ripens about the same time. Seed treatment for seed - borne diseases is reccnunended, just as it is with other varieties of oats. While Russell has stimulated interest in other provinces, Dr. Zillinsky feels it is best suited to the medium and lighter soils of Ontario. Rocky on Tests It is nearly two years since the administration voluntarily banned nuclear tests. In that time there has been no progress in negotiations with the Russians on a satisfactory test ban agree- ment, nor has there been any certain assurance that the Rus- sians have not been testing secretly, Iii view of these facts (as has been pointed out here before) there seetns no good reason why we should continue our volun- tary plan, It is a gamble with our security and hampers de- velopment of peaceful uses of nuclear explosions. We should resume underground tests which present no fallout hazard at all, Our great nuclear physicist, Dr. Edward Teller, is among those urging such a course. Governor Rockefeller of New York is once more urging it, too. He has proposed a practical pro- gram on nuclear testing as- fol- lows: The United States should re- nounce further testing in the atmosphere and invite the Unit- ed Nations to establish a com• mittee to monitor fallout. It should agree to end other tests that can be detected (providing, we 'would add, built-in self -en- forcing detection guar.ntees are possible). It should restuzie un- derground testing both a. a measure of security and of press- ing the Soviet Union toward a realistic approach to armament control. This makes sense. — Seattle Post-Intelligencer. 9.11ungur-uu sl.

Washington — The squawk of a frightened bird may make air travel safer some day — if other birds can finally be made to un- derstand that they are, flying in the face of progress. Federal Aviation Agency ex- perts are studying ways to dis- courage flocks of small birds, like starlings, which menace (light , from roosting near air- ports. Broadcasting a record of bird cries has always succeeeded in driving away starlings front air- ports, but only for short periods of time. The birds always return, This story night seem funny if it weren't so frightening. The FAA believes a flock of migrat- ing starlings might have been sucked into the turbo -jet engines of an Electra airliner on Oct, 4 at Boston, causing a `flame out" which resulted in the deaths of 61 persons. So the FAA takes its recordings seriously. * • * The novel recording is made by holding a starling upside down in front of a microphone. The squawk is recorded on tape and broadcast over a loud- speaker. The system was devel- oped by Dr, Hubert Frings and Prof, Joseph Jumber of Pennsyl- vania State College and tested in 1954. On three consecutive evenings, federal officials broadcast the tape from the fourth stony of the Washington Archives Build- ing as the starlings flew in to roost. Playing time was five to 20 seconds until the birds were driven away. The starlings avoided the fourth floor and went elsewhere around the building where the sound couldn't be heard. They stayed there for the next three months until they migrated for the summer. But the starlings eventually returned to their usual Archives roost, The same thing happened in Air Force experiments at Wright Patterson Air Force Base, Dayton, Ohio, The Air Force also tried to rid itself of the starlings by emitting high pitched sirens above human hearing level, beating drums and firing guns into the air. These methods worked — temporarily. In 1958, the General Services Administration, believing that the starlings might be more frightened by the cry of a nat- ural enemy, the hawk, switched "vocalIsts." The -starlings disappeared. They were replaced by a flock of hawks. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Serv- ice is after the starlings, too, Dr, James S. Lindzey, an FNS official, says that the starlings, introduced here at the turn ot the century, feast upon improve- ments in U.S. crop growing methods and there are few en- vironmental hazards to bother them. Therefore, tine starling is not wanted on farmland either. All agencies worried about the starling night hear the plight of the Navy, which has its own bird problems. What the starling threatens to do to' some 1 flights around the country, the gooney bird has done to flights on Midway Is- land 111 the Pacific, In one year, 538 Navy air- craft were involved in collisions with gooney birds, (albatrosses), which inflicted damage totalling more than $1501000 and endan- gering persons on the planes. So the. Navy tried to frighten the birds off with weird noises, smoke them out and steal their ISSUE 45 — 1960 eggs. When these methods didn't work, the sailors tried to "club" then. Finally they spent $110,000 to level the dunes near the run- ways, the gooney birds' takeoff point. They also provided simi- lar sites on another island to at- tract the birds there. At last report, the problem on Midway has been reduced sub- stantially — but it, too, has not been eliminated entirely, First Sight Of Asia Comes As Shock To anyone travelling eastwards from Europe the first sight of the Asian plateau must come as something of a shock. Perhaps it will be at the end of the long. climb inland above Trebizond, up from the lush timbered slopes of the Black Sea; when far above the tree -line at the top Of the pass — the same spot where Xenophon's soldiers, mar- ching in the opposite direction first glimpsed the sea — the mists fall back and the great barren hogs' backs, edged with range on range of blue peaks, break into view, Father east across the Taurus Mountains, in Persia proper, the landscape is even more astonish- ing. As the snowcapped cone of Ararat sinks behind the horizon the long burnt plains crossed by chains of smooth hills, unfold, rolling it seems for ever in waves of bare brown and yellow until they wash the feet of yet another line of mountains whose purple spikes, sharp as dogs' teeth, melt into the sky. Never a tree or a house or the sight of a man; only the thin white thread of dust road unwinding over the plain. As the sun swings westward the colours deepen, turning the sea of burnt grass to gold, flush- ing the peaks to pink and orange, while huge shadows creep out from the hills to swallow the land, Standing so small in so gigantic a scene, the silence made more enormous by the thin pipe of a bird fluttering in the grass, there comes a sense of desolation that is almost painful; a loneliness appalling and yet exultant. Night shuts out the earth; the camp -fire flickers a faint answer to the cold brilliance of the stars, From Tabriz_, the first large city that greeted tis on our entry into Persia, we hall driven south, on roads scarcely marked on the Wrap, following the summer that was beginning to fail on those northern highlands; south by the marshy shoes of Lake Urmyia, u1on e' to the windswept plateaux of Kurdistan. Tiny villages nestl- ed in tiers of mud roofs in the shelter of valleys watered by streams green with watercress. I3y one of these streams we carte upon a group of women in long flowered petticoats of scar- let and black, baggy dark panta- loons clipped tightly above their bare feet, with untidy bands of black lace wrapped loosely round the oiled ringlets of their hair, . . In some villages the men were winnowing, tossing the corn with forks into the blue sky, the grain floating in a mist of gold, in the light breeze. Walking round the winnowers I was once startled by a thin curl of smoke that rose between my feet, only to find that I was standing on the roofs of cottages. — From "From a Persian Tea -house," by Michael Carroll. To Keep Calm Look At Goldfish Millions of goldfish swans sud- denly to freedom, their deaths or the waiting nets of hundreds of small boys in a city of West- ern Japan recently when rain from a passing typhoon flocdccf the local cultivation ponds. Children woke in the morn- ing after the typhoon to find the city's streets filled with gold- fish. Ten million had escaped but another sixty million in the ponds were not affected by the typhoon. To -day goldfish are the most popular of all ornamental fish and millions of dollars are spent annually in rearing them in various parts of the world, Goldfish are really carp and for many years most of those seen in Britain came from Italy. They like heat and thrive well in water at a temperature of 90 degrees, but experts say that the goldfish of to -day are much hardier and can withstand the cold of an English winter much better than their forbears did a century ago. The United States has ,many goldfish farms, Some in Mary- land employ hundreds of men, So popular are goldfish in Am- erica that some of the big stores present them to customers, giv- ing one goldfish for each stated amount spent. One goldfish expert recom- mends the stury of goldfish and their habits as a perfect cure for worry, People can find tran- quility merely by gazing at gold- fish, he says. The first goldfish to reach Europe carne from China and were presented to the famous Madame Pompadour. The artist Whistler did not like goldfish. While in Italy he had a grudge against his landlady so he angled for her goldfish —.placed tempt- ingly on a ledge beneath his • window -sill — and caught them, Then he callously fried them and dropped them back into their bowl. DRIVE CAREFULLY — The life you save may be your own. II.NDAY scnoot JSSON By Rev. It. Barclay Warren It.A„ 11.1). Confession and Forgiveness Psalms 32 and 51 The way of salvation is set forth very clearly in this lesson. There must first of all be convic- tion that produces sorrow for sin. No where is this more vividly expressed in Scripture than in Psalm 51, We see it l,lso in Psalm 32. "For day and night thy Land was heavy upon Inc." Then conies confession. "I said, 'I will confess my transgressions unto the lord,'" Confessioa conies easily when godly sorrow for sin has worked repentance. He who is thoroughly repentant is ready to bare his heart before God. He wants to be done with sin forever, He sees that his sins, however they may have invlov- ed others, have been primarily an offense against God. Ile sees himself as partly responsible for Christ's death upon the cross, It was the sins of us all that nailed Him there. The next step is faith. An en- couragement for faith is pointed up in our memory selection. "lf we confess our sins, lie is faith- ful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." 1 John 1:9. This is the verse that helped me most when I was considering the way of salvation. I had wonder- ed if perhaps I night confess my sins to God and yet receive no forgiveness. A young minister explained this verse to ane. I saw then that God would be faith;ul and just to forgive. 1 could count on Him to do His part if I would do mine, Some months later un- der a deep sense of convictions 1 became truly sorry for my sins. I was sorry enough to quit them all, regardless of what anyone of my companions at High School thought or said about it. I saw nay Saviour dying for me on Calvary. I confessed my sin to God, Then the words of our memory selection canoe to mind. God had promised. I believed. My burden of guilt was gone. I• arose, forgiven. The way of salvation is really very simple when we are willing to humble ourselves and turn to Jesus Christ with the whole heart. I have always been very glad for that day when I experienced the forgiveness of sin, It was the beginning of a new life, a life in Christ .Jesus. I became a new creature through faith in Jesus Christ. The way grows better every day. I shall be eternally grateful to my Lord, There's always plenty of trouble about, yet some people insist on wasting time looking for it.
