LEGION SEARCHING FOR
HOSPITAL BED
It would be appreciated if the party
who borrowed the hospital bed from
the Blyth Legion or Auxiliary would
get in touch with either Donald Sprung
or Mrs. Luella McGowan, and inform
then of the whereabouts of the bed.
Apparently whoever had the loaning
of the bed has forgotten the person
to which it was loaned and they are
quite anxious to hear of its location.

SPARK FROM MACHINE BLAMED
IN BARN FIRE
The fire is believed to have started
y a spark generated by a threshing
nachine, destroyed a barn filled with
'rain and hay on the farm of William
I.I. Hardy, near St. Augustine, on Tues -
lay.
Fire broke out about 10 a.m., and
the loss was estimated to be $10,000.
Thefire is believed to have started
in straw being blown into the barn
by the threshing machine.
Workers 'managed to save the ma-
chine and several head of cattle but
were unable to extinguish the fire.
The fire had spread too far by the
time the Lucknow fire department, un-
der Chief George Whitney, arrived.
Firemen concentrated on saving the
nearby ]lardy home and a shed. The
loss was partially insured.
HENACIILOROPIIENE NOW USED
FOR FURNACE FILTERS
Don't he startled when you purchase
new air filters for your furnace this

stead of amber.
Reason for the change: the fiber
glass filler is now being treated with
hexachlorophene, a germ -killing agent.
"Bacteria cau'2ht with the dust trapped
by the filter will now be destroyed."

Great Human Be'ny
Passes From S;glat
"The spirit df liberty is the
spirit which is not too sure that
it is right ..."
These words, trent one of
Judge Learned Hand's most fa-
mous utterances, could have been
applied as well to the spirit of
justice that guided him through
half a century on the Federal
bench. It was a spirit reflected
in the 2,000 -odd opinions he
wrote over the years.
Should the pro -Bolshevik ma-
gazine The Masses, be suppress-
ed (at the end of the first word
war)? No, said Judge Hand. To
do so would be "to disregard the
tolerance of all methods of p'.li-
tical agitation which in normal
times is a safeguard of free gov-

Should the convlelion of the
top U.S, Communists, under :he
Snaith Act, be upheld (this was
in 1950)? Yes, wrote Judge
Hand. "The advocacy of violence
may, or may not, fail; but in
neither case can there be any
'right' to use it,"
It was for opinions like those
— the opinions of a man "not
too sure he was right" — that
Learned Hand came to be
known as "the judge's judge."
Many considered him the most
brilliant of his time. When the
late Supreme Court Justice Ben-

christened Billings Learned
Hand (Learned was his mother's
maiden name), he attended Har-
vard, both the college and the
law school, and received his ap-
pointment to the Federal bench
when he was 37, In 1951, he for-
mally retired — at 79 — but
continued to serve when called
upon. Just two years ago he
celebrated his fiftieth anniver-
sary as a U.S, judge in New
York's Foley Square Cour t -
house — with Chief Justice Earl
Warren among the well-wishers,
Last month, at 89, Judge
Learned Hand died peacefully in
the New York home where he
and his wife had lived since
1902. Many would recall the
words that ended his ."spirit of
liberty" speech:
"The spirit of liberty is the
spirit of Rim who, nearly 2,000
years ago, taught mankind that
lesson it has never learned, but
has never quite forgotten: That
there may be a Kingdom where
the (east shall be heard and con-

British Fear of Mau Mau Terror
... As Kenya Moves Toward Independence
By TOM A. CULLEN
Newspaper Enterprise Assn.
LONDON — (NEA) — Jomo
Kenyatta's release from custody
in his native Kenya shocked
even those Britishers who tol-
erantly hold with yesterday's
imprisoned African leaders be-
coming today's prime ministers.
Kenyatta was the man found
guilty nine years ago of manag-
ing the Mau Mau terror that
resulted in some 2,000 murders
and countless mutilations in the
British colony. The blood-letting
still is fresh in the minds of
Britishers here. So it will take
some time for them to get used
to the alleged leader of that
conspiracy walking freely among
his people once again.
Because of public reaction,
Kenyatta was held in protective
custody for several years after
serving five years of a seven-
year term. His time in prison
was reduced because of his good
Mnduct.
But, as recently as 1960, the
tovernor of Kenya described
bishop Makarios of Cyprus
The big question here is: can
Jomo Kenyatta be trusted? Has
he learned his lesson, or is his
liberation likely to be followed
by the re -birth of the Mau Mau?
In releasing Kenyatta, the
British had very little choice in
the matter. Even behind bars,
he never ceased to be leader of
the Kikuyu tribesmen and of
Kenyan Africans in general. The
British found that Kenyatta ac-
tually was more dangerous as a
prisoner than he would be free,
While he was in prison, he exer-
cised power without responsibil-
ity.
So "Flaming Spear" walks
again, to pose in tribal dress
with the symbolic spear in his
hand when necessary, But he
personally prefers Western
dress. For dramatic effect, he
carries an elephant -headed stick
and wears an enormous Gen-
tian ring on his right index
finger
Orphaned early in life, Ken-
yatta was brought up by Scot-
KENYATTA: Symbol of Mau Mau to the British and independence
to Kenya Africans,
him as "the African leader of
darkness and death."
But now the British govern-
ment not only has released
Kenyatta, but it also has built
him a brand-new house with
wide verandas and walls tinted
blush pink and powder blue.
In front of this house are two
high -powdered Mercedes Benz
motorcars, the gifts of rival poli-
tical factions seeking to curry
Kenyatta's favor. Inside, the
rooms are crammed with other
gifts from Kenyatta admirers.
And this is only the beginning
in the "rehabilitation" of Jomo
Kenyatta, now in his late 60s.
This man, who calls himself
"Flaming Spear," at the moment
is barred from the Kenya legisla•
Live council by a law which
rnakes ex -convicts ineligible for
election. But this restriction can
and will be speedily lifted,
Kenyatta is expected to be-
come first leading minister, then
premier when Kenya gets inter-
nal self-government in a few
months' time, and finally prime
minieter on independence day
(probably late in 1962),
De thus will join the ranks
Of Fat h other "jailbirds" who
Marie Donal as India's N, bru,
Ghana's Nkruniah and Arch-
tish missionaries; he worked as
a kitchen boy, carpenter, inspec-
tor for the Nairobi waterworks.
But his oratorical ability led
him to an active political role in
the Kikuyu Central Assn. in
1928; he also published a Kikuyu -
language newspaper in Nairobi.
Coming to Britain for a short
visit in 1929, he remained here
for 17 years. He studied anthro-
pology at the University of Lon-
don, married an English girl:
they had one child.
With Kwame Nkruntah (now
president of Ghana) he organ-
ized a left wing Pan -Africa
Congress in Manchester in 1945.
He also made several trips to
Moscow, his expenses being paid
by the Soviet government,
When Kenyatta returned to
Nairobi in 1946, he won imme-
diate recognition as leader of all
Africans in Kenya in their fight
for independence,
Kenyatta always has denied
his role as the brains of the
Mau Mau, insisting that he urged
his followers to give up terror-
ism. But the British claim he
doublecrossed them. While os-
ten>'ibly speaking against Mau
Mau, Kenyatta gave secret signs
that his views were the oppo-
site, the British say.

Isle Of History
— Also Mystery
They call Socotra the Isle of
Dragon's Blood and the Abode
of Bliss.
The history of the Arabian
Sea's largest island reaches back
to Biblical days when traders
flocked there for the pungent
juices and resins of aloes, frank-
incense, and myrrh,
Still exported are small quan-
tities of the traditional aromat-
ics, which are used in perfume,
Incense, and drugs. So is the
famous red gum of the dragon's
blood tree, shipped abroad to
make varnish and dye, But So-
cotra, despite its exotic asso-
ciations, is hardly a place to in-
spire poets or lure tourists.
From the air this outlying ter-
ritory of Britain's Aden protec-
torate has a wild and haunted
look, says the National Geo-
graphic Society, Monsoon winds
and waves have carved its bar-
ren mountains and rocky coasts
into strange forms, Lack of har-
bors and the hazards of sur-
rounding waters are handicaps
that caused the British to trans-
fer an early coaling station there
to the port of Aden on the
Arabian Peninsula,
The Sultan of Socotra, who
also rules the small mainland
area of Qishn, is subjject to
British control only in foreign
affairs. He is absolute monarch
over his people, who are kept
docile and law-abiding by stern
punishments decreed since me-
dieval times,
Unlike its more fortunate
neighbors, Socotra has found no
oil deposits to pay for develop -

sired thickness, about 15 min-
utes longer.

Shifting Problem
In Modern Cars
Remember way back when
automobiles all had different
gear -shift patterns, and the posi-
tion that might be "reverse" in
one car was "high" in the next?
If you do, you're much older than
we, or us, Those too young to
remember can take our word
for it that such was the state of
affairs until the triumphant adop-
tion of the standard shift pat-
tern.
Today most cars have automa-
tic transmission, but with this
additional progress the c a r
makers seem to have reverted to
the confusion of the days before
the standard shift. What we are
talking about is the fact that the
automatic 5 1) 1 f t position for
"park" in one car may be that
for "reverse" in another.
11 may have been all right for
cars to have different shift posi-
tions in the old days. Familiarity
with the Various systems was
something to brag about, especial-
ly if one knew nothing else, But
confusion between the "park"
and "reverse" positions in these
days of teeming traffic may easi-
ly be disastrous. Matters are not
helped by the tendency for one
family to own two cars, whose
shift patterns may differ,
The time is here for another
great meeting of minds on shift
patterns, in the interest of safety,
Furthermore, such standardiza-
tion would very likely save the
car -makers money. — Pasadena,

Dear Marlene:—
A few of your friends are gathered here

To bring you wishes true and bright,
We're glad your not movhrg far away
And maybe we'll call on you some nice
day,
So here's a secret between you and me,
Be sure you always have cookies and
tea,
We know you are bound to have cares
and troubles,
But love will blow them away like
bubbles,
We hope your pies will always turn out
right
So Ron can thoroughly enjoy every bile.
We hope that you will never get cross
When the kids are bad and you show
them whose boss,
And now on behalf of your friends so
true,
Here are some little gifts for you,
And throughout the years they will help
you remember
The shower we gave you before the
01)1 of September.
--Signed on behalf of your friends,
Carol McDowell.
The gifts were presented by Miss
Phyllis Glen and Miss Gwen McDowell.
Marlene thanked them for the lovely
gifts. Lunch was served by the hostess,
assisted by Misses Phyllis Glen and
Gwen McDowell,

THE MYTH iiiTANDARW
ONTARIO
INFORVIAI ION
about the
ON'IARIO RE'IAIL
SALES 'IAX.
The following basic information about the 3% Retail Sales Tax, that went
into effect September 1st, will be of interest to every resident of Ontario.
Why the Sales Tax was introduced
Ontario is experiencing the most dynamic growth in its history.
As a result, the demands on the provincial treasury continue
to grow at an unprecedented rate. For example, during the next
five years we must build the equivalent of o'w thousand schools
large enough for 500 pupils each. This means that provincial
grants to schools must be greatly increased in the years imme-
diately ahead, or municipalities will be faced with crippling mill
rates to provide bask educational facilities. Hospitals, highways
and other public works most also be greatly expanded to meet
the needs of our rapidly increasing population.
Your Province must increase its revenues by about $150
million annually to pay for these vital projects.
After considering every method available to the Province, of
raising money, your representatives at Queen's Park decided
that our vast financial needs could not be met out of present
sources of revenue. It was agreed that The Retail Sales Tax Act
was the fairest and most practical way for residents of Ontario
to contribute to the cost of their schools, hospitals and other
essential services,
Before drawing up the Ontario Retail Sales Tax Act, your
government closely studied the retail sales taxes of seven other
Canadian provinces and many states oldie U.S.A. The Ontario
Retail Sales Tax Act has the broadest exemptions of any of these
retail sales taxes, Only two other provinces have a tax rate as
low as Ontario,
Collection of Tax
Those who regularly sell goods as a normal part of their business
must apply to be registered as vendors, Those who have applied
are now receiving their permits,
They will collect 3% tax on the price of goods sold to the
ultimate consumer. The tax will be collected only once. Thus, a
registered wholesaler will purchase goods for resale tax free from
the manufacturer. He in turn will sell to the retailer on a tax
free basis. Then the retailer will collect the tax when he sells
to the consumer,
Major Consumer Exemptions
Most of the day-to-day necessities of life arc free of sales tax,
Food, prescribed drugs and medical supplies, and children's
clothing are all tax exempt. Heating fuel, electricity and gasoline
are exempt, Newspapers, magazines and books are exempt. No
tax applies on restaurant meals charged separately at $1.50 or
less. Each sale of less than 170 is exempt. These and many other
exemptions are discussed in detail on special cards that are now
being mailed to retailers and other vendors,
Homes Not Taxable
Houses and other buildings are real property and are not subject
to tax under this Act. The building contractor pays tax on
materials incorporated into the home or other structure but no
tax is payable on the labour that constitutes a large part of the
total price of a home.
If furnishings such as draperies, stoves and refrigerators are sold
with a home, tax is payable on the fair value of such furnishings.
Services Not Taxable
Only items of merchandise that are moveable, and telephone
services, except long distance calls, are subject to the tax. Those
persons selling "services," such as barbers, beauty shops, laun-
derers and dry cleaners, do not collect tax, but must pay tax on
the materials they use in supplying their service. However, if a
repair service includes substantial quantities of parts or material,
the entire bill will be taxable unless the materials are shown as a
separate charge from the labour.
Casual Sales
When an individual sells goods privately, the transaction is a
"casual" sale, In such cases the purchaser and not the seller of
taxable goods is responsible to report the purchase and pay the
sales tax on the purchase price to the Retail Sales Tax Branch,
Office of the Comptroller of Revenue.
instalment Purchases
Sales tax is due on the total price when the sale is made, even
though payments may continue over a long period of time.
Finance charges are also taxable unless quoted and itemized
scpa ra tely.
Trade-ins
The actual selling price minus the amount of the trade-in allow-
ance is the amount upon which sales tax is payable,
Farming
Farmers will be exempt from tax on most equipment, on agri-
cultural seeds and feeds, on drugs and medicines for livestock
and on many other commodities used directly in the business
of farming. " --
Exports and Imports
Goods exported from Ontario are not taxable since the tax is
applicable only to goods used in Ontario. No tax is payable
under 'this Act by manufacturers on goods they purchase for use
in the production of goods for sale. Thus, their competitive posi-
tion in the export market is maintained without change after the
introduction of this tax,
Goods imported into Ontario are taxable since they are pur-
chased for use in Ontario. The purchaser of the imported goods
is subject to the sante tax he would have to pay to an Ontario
Vendor if he purchased the goods in Ontario.
Rental of Moveable Property
The person who acquires possession of moveable property by
paying a rental price for its use is regarded as a purchaser of such
property under the Act and.tax is payable by hint on the_rental
price paid.
' Registered vendors are receiving special cards that list exempt and taxable goods;

But what of the men? Despite

This is a topic which gets the
conversation fairly bristling and
sparkling, writes Peter Lyne in
the Christian Science Monitor.
As for the cockles (a bivalve
;mollusk, as the dictionary calls
therm), they are a factor in the
problem of spreading the new
prosperity of South Wales more
widely to the still economically
depressed areas of North and
mid -Wales.
The South Wales revival has
resulted from planned diversifi-
cation of industry with the in-
troduction of many new indus-
tries into areas which were
formerly dominated by coal, iron,
steel, and tinplate.
The government in London
now is being urged to take simi-
lar action in central and North
Wales. The latest government re-
port sees hopeful opportunities
in many unexpected directions.
It says that the fishermen of
the little North Wales harbor of
Portmadoc have formed them-
selves into a company for ex-
porting bottled cockles. A ship-
ment has already gone to the
United States.
Here the idea of reviving
North Wales by bottled cockles
is a controversial one. But it was
the same in South Wales when
some coal miners were scornful
at the thought of starting their
working life again making but-
tons. Today they see how in-
dustrial diversification is paying
off.
Finally the most lively de-
bates of all are raging in Pem-
brokeshire and Cardiganshire.
There the traditional pacifist
Welsh people are being called on
to act as hosts this coming
autumn to German Panzer units,
who will be carrying out firing
practice with their 40 tanks on
the range at Castlemartin under
a NATO exchange training
scheme,
Many Welsh folk regard this
as 0 supreme affront to ''time
land of our fathers" But others
are equally determined to show
that Wales has ceased to be a
land of misty remoteness and
ancient dogmas.

We drove to Milton last Thurs-
day and as is our custom we
went by one road and tame back
by another, but in each case
what we saw was the same —
field after field of ripening oats
laying flat on the ground, obvi-
ously the result of wind and
rain during recent storms —
storm damage that we hadn't
even known about, either by
radio or through the press. If
there is a bad fire, a robbery or
a traffic accident we hear or
read about it until we know all
the details, but here was a disas-
ter that hadn't attracted any
attention at all, FIundreds of
people will drive along the road
we travelled — and others —
and may not even notice the
flattened fields, or if they see
them they won't even know that
it means a loss of hundreds of
dollars to the farmers concern-
ed. Those flattened fields will
have far-reaching results. In some
cases farmers will not have
enough grain to feed their.' live-
stock during the coming winter;
they must either buy feed or sell
some of their cattle and poultry.
It will also mean lower financial
returns on the milk, cream and
egg receipts. Mrs. Farmer may
have to go without that new
electric stove, or the oilcloth for
the kitchen that she had been
promised after the harvest was
taken care of. It may also 0100n
waiting another year before a
trade-in can be arranged on the
old family car. But ,just let Mr.
Farmer or any member of his
family air their grievances to
those who live in urban districts
and their complaints will fall -ort
deaf ears, or be brushed aside
with the usual comment — "Oh,
you farm folk — you're never
satisfied — the summer season
is either too wet or too dry; too
hot or too cold!" Unfortunately,
that is all too true. The weather
can make or break the farmer.
It means more to him than in-
convenience — such as a spoilt
week -end at the cottage, a day
at time golf links, or attending a
ball game, No one can change
the weather but at least there
could be a better understanding
between city folk and their coun-
try cousins .. , and less grumbl-
ing of the price of eggs should
go up an extra cent or two in the
fall. So, Mr. Motorist, as you
drive past those ruined crops,
have a heart — try to realize
there is more work and worry
ahead for the owners of those.-

face.
You know, It gives me a queer
feeling driving in once familiar
surroundings and find that even
the roads have changed. Foitr-
lane highway's cutting acrosa
country means the right-of-way
on many back concessions has
been entirely eliminated. You
have to look up directions before
you visit farm folic these days!
I never did have a very good
sense of direction but now I gel
completely lost. However, as
long as Partner is with me we
manage to get wherever we want
to go. Ile seems to know the
way by instinct. But he also
likes to get off the main high-
ways and that way we often run
into trouble — "Detour" . , .
"Bridge out" ... "Road closed"
—and so on. You have to keep
your eyes on the road the whole
time. There was a time when I
enjoyed a cross-country drive —
but not any more, not if I'm do-
ing the driving. I can still enjoy
it if I'nm a passenger but that
doesn't happen too often.
When we got to Milton last
Thursday we found poor little
Ross running 0 temperature of
104 degrees — the result 01
tonsilitis. Poor little chap, he
wasn't himself at.all, Cedric., on
the other hand, was full of beans,
charging in and out of the house
without a care in the world.
There seems to be a lot of ton-
silitis around these days, One
of our neighbours is suffering
from her third attack this sum-
mer Apparently antibiotics have
no effect upon her at all. She
said to me today — "What did
you do years ago before penicil-
lin and antibiotics had been dis-
covered?"
Well now, what dirl we do — I
had to think twice before I an-
swered.
SALLY'S SALLIES
ri
"You'll have to blame the reg-
ister, lady, It makes • all the
change."
"Will," I replied, "for one
thing anyone with a high tem-
perature was kept in bed. Some-
times the tonsils were painted
with idoine. Embrocation or oil
of some kind was rubbed on the
throat and glands and everything
possible was done to bring down
the temperature and reduce the
danger of a chill, I remember
my smother used to wrap a warm
woolen stocking around my
throat — just as it came from
the wearer'!"
Things are so different now.
A person with tonsilitis often
takes a shot of penicillin or
swallows antibiotics for a few
days, and thus manages to keep
going. Speaking of modern
treatments, it might be just as
well if people were a little more
careful in regard to self-medica-
tion. Even taking too many as-
pirin can have disasterous results
over a period of time. But a little
more sleep never does anyone
any harm — that is if one is un-
der the weather.
Jupiter Honeymoon
Might Be Better
Mars and Venus, the earth's
closest planetary neighbors, have
been rated the likeliest habitats
for extraterrestrial life. Astrono-
mers ruled out Jupiter because
the intense cold of its atmos-
phere (210 degrees below zero
Fahrenheit) would freeze any
known organism.
Now astronomer Carl Sagan
of the University of California
Inas cone up with a new idea:
Suppose the clouds of Jupiter
behave like a giant greenhouse,
trapping and storing the feeble
Teat received from the stat?
Far from the traditional idea of
a frozen waste shrouded by am-
monia, methane, and hydrogen
gases, the planet's surface might
actually reach a comfortable
roost temperature.
On the basis of laboratory ex-
parinents with a test-tube at-
mosphere of Jupiter, Sagan fur-
ther speculates that lightning
and solar radiation produce or-
ganic chemicals which sink into
Jupiter's warns seas of ammonia
and water. There the chemicals
may become precursors of living
organisms, in much the same
way of life is reckoned to have
started on earth.
"The possibility of life on Ju-
piter seems somewhat better
than the possibility of life on
Venus," the astronomer says in
the current issue of Radiation
Research. The latter now seems
remote, he said, because the
same "greenhouse effect" that
may warns Jupiter has heated
Venus to a searing 600 degrees
Fahrenheit.
Fish That Travel
Really Fast
Naturalists are finding it hard
to agree which is the world's
fastest fish, Many of them are
insistent that it is the sword-
fish.
One of these mighty fish —
their average length is seven
feet and weight 250 lb. — poked
its sword through twenty inches
of hard wood sheathed with cop-
per during a clash with a sail-
ing ship.
"Such a feat would have been
impossible at a speed, at time mo-
ment of impact, of less than sixty
miles an hour," reported a mar-
ine biologist. "But the cruising
speed of a swordfish is only
thirty-five miles an hour."
Another expert thinks the
swordfish comparatively slow af-
ter checking up on the speed of
a sailfish in time Atlantic. The
run of a hooked specimen was
tined with a stopwatch and the
speed attained was 100 yards in
three seconds.

The daily bag limit has been
reduced from six to five, and the
possession limit from twelve to
ten, exclusive of mergansers.
One canvasback or redhead duck
is being permitted as a "mistake"
bird. This allowance ties in with
an open letter to fish and game
clubs in the Prairie Provinces
and western Ontario, in which
Resources Minister Walter Dins -
dale asked that clubs help in-
form all hunters that canvas-
backs and redheads should not
be shot this year, in an effort to
retain an adequate breeding pop-
ulation.
The bag and possession limits
for wood duck have been in-
creased from one to two. The
bag limit for rails, coots and gal-
linules has been reduced from
six to five and the possession
limit from 12 to ten.
Geese limits remain un-
changed at five and ten. The bag
and possession limits for snipe•

A Blowtorch Helped
To Start Your Car !
When you start out in the fa-
mily car this weekend it wo ild
be nice if you gave a momen-
tary thought to harry 13. Haines.
Writing to the editor of the ma-
gazine The IIorscless Age jtist
about 00 years ago he gave his
instructions for starting his 41/4
horsepower "American carriage."
"Just move the rod back of
the seat up and down once or
twice. That is the auxiliary gaso-
line pump and forces enough
gasoline into the explosion cham-
ber to start with , , . Then 'iut
your spark and switch levers far
forward so as to start with a late
spark. Turn the needle valve
controlling supply of gasoline,
then turn on your lubricator
Now press down on your relief
lever to iet out the bad gas and
turn the starting crank once or
twice to get the motor going."
Simple, eh? When Ford came
along he put the "starting crank"
out in front, but for Mr. Haines'
car it was directly beneath the
seat, ."always in position,"
It was touch and go in Mr.
•Haines' day whether to go gaso-
line or steam, The Stanley Bro-
thers of Newton, Mass,, almost
made America a nation of steam
drivers.
One problem with steam was
getting .up pressure. You could
buy the Turner Pocket Gasoline
Torch whose flame according to
an advertisement covers the
whole of the generating coil."
However that was optional with
the manufacturers of the Stan-
ley Steamer, They recommend-
ed "cotton waste and a side road
fire."
This combined well with pic-
nics. After the hot dogs and just
before putting out the fire you
would get at that old generat-
ing coil. However, a letter to
the editor signed Ernest Duval,
MD, of Chicago, 111., made the
point that this is "impracticable
on a crowded street or even in
the country when the wind
blows hard." It really poised a
pretty problem.
In t h e gay, experimental
1900's, however, difficulties were
just made to be solved. Here is
how Mr. Duval handled it:
"When I want to fire tip my
carriage all I have to do, no
matter if I am on a crowded
street or in my barn, is to hitch
up the generating tube on the
step, clasp the small blowtorch"
(Le., the aforementioned Turner
Pocket Gasoline Torch) "under
it, and in less than a minute I
can insert the generating tube
in the burner and fire in the
usual way; take off the small
blowtorch and put it in my
pocket or in the tool bag."
Mr. Duval continued —
"The advantage of this con-
trivance is that 1 have nothing
to hold in my hand or lay on
the ground; that it does not gen-
erate a flame that attracts at-
tention, and is not much affect -
cd by the wird."
Personally 1 think 1 would
have been a blowtorch plan in
1902 and I am almost persuaded
that I would have been a Stan-
ley Steamer owner, writes Ri-
chard L. Strout in the Christian
Science Monitor. The brothers,
in 1902, had a new model, so
efficient that they claimed "the
average consumption of water
used in this carriage does not
exceed 40 pounds per hour and
as the water tank holds about
20 gallons a very large radius
of action is assured."
This introduces a new thought.
"Miles per gallon" in a steamer
as like as not referred to the
mileage you could extract from
a gallon of water.
That was the day when motor-
ists had a gay recklessness and
when the horse was the double
enemy —it shied, and it shed
nails.
Other enemies were state le-
gislators. Three bills were intro-
duced in Massachusetts that year
— 7 miles an hour in cities: 15
in the country; penalty $50 fine
or three months in jail.
And the New York State Sen-
ate passed the Cocks bill: city
maximum 8 mile's; country. 20
miles; on any bridge 4 miles.
An Empty Pocket
Is Now An Asset
The amount of money you
carry in your pocket or wallet
may be a significant indicator
not only of your comparative
wealth but your status as well.
If you have a lot of money,
reports show, you may keep very
little of it ,jingling in your
pockets. You have it out working
for you. But if you don't have
much, the likelihood is greater
that you keep it close at hand,
where you can keep track of it.
Queen Elizabeth 11, an exceed-
ingly wealthy woman in her own
right as well as the recipient of
a large government stipend,
never carries any cash. Even
when she goes shopping at Chris-
mastime, someone in her retinue
always pays for the purchases or
arranges for the bill to be sent.
That is a royal tradition.
In non -royal circles, too, the
wealthy men of England seem
to carry less coins on their per-
son the larger their bank bal-
ances. From time to time, men
like Charles Clore, the property
magnate, Paul Getty and Nubar
Gulbenkian, the oil millionaires,
SWORDS AND PLOWSHARES — Kansas farmers go about their work oblivious of a new type
of "silo" in the background. The object is an Atlas ICBM missile standing on its pad at one of
the launching sites in the vicinty of Forbes Air Force Base, Topeka. Ordinarily, Atlas is stored
below ground in horizontal position, then raised to vertical for firing.
and Charles Forte, a successful
caterer, reportedly have run
short of cash — like President
Kennedy at the candy shop —
and have to borrow a small
amount to pay for taxis, tele-
phones, or emergencies.
But most of these men have
learned through experience to
have a small amount of money
on their person, or to see that
their chauffeur has funds on
hand. After all, they themselves
did not get to the top of the
financial ladder by being shr,rt-
sighted about such matters.
Replacing money in the wallet
in England, as in the United
States, is the credit card. Such
cards are not yet as profuse
there as 00 the other side of the
Atlantic, But many a rising
hu-inessm:.n in Britain now
feels it essential to have a
charge account at a good hotel
or restaurant so he can sign
the hill rather than pay c ash
when entertaining clients.
Contributing to the reduction
01 cash carrying at lower levels
of society is the recent growth
of popularity of bank checking
accounts. Advertisements now
tell cash-and-carry George that
if he seems to he slighted by
the clerks when he makes a pur-
chase, it is because John, no riif-
ferent otherwise and perhaps
poorer, carries a checkbook. ties,
the empty pocket practically be-
comes an asset, according to
Henry S. Hayward in the Chris-
tian Science Monitor.
At the very depths, obviously,
are men such as myself who not
only carry cash — but carry
small change in a coin purse.
Several feminine movie stars I
have noted recently, when de-
scribing their ideal man have
complained they _cannot toler-
ate one who carries a change
purse. 1 know what they mean,
all right; if he is careful about
his small change, what must he
he about the larger denomina-
tions?
But if they, in turn (or their
husbands) had developed holes
in their pockets by carrying
heavy British pence, florins, and
half crowns, perhaps they would
be more sympathetic with the
purse -bearing type. He is a thrif-
ty fellow — but there is less
mending to be done in the eve-
ning!
Meanwhile, if Soviet Premier
Nikita S. Khrushchev has his
way, money will become prac-
tically unnecessary in the Soviet
Union by 1980. If things work
as planned, the Soviets 20 years
hence won't need money for
housing, transportation, or food,
education, health, or entertain-
ment. That is quite a bit to pro-
mise, and it will be some time
before we know if the Soviets
are going to achieve this goal.
If they do achieve it, millions
of then won't have to carry cash
any more—and they then doubt-
less will call themselves the
equal of Western millionaires
If they succeed, moreover, the
value of money is almost cer'ain
to decline elsewhere, too, and
the Western millionaires of that
clay won't feel rich — despite
their accumulated wealth and
empty pockets.
Calling All Scots —
Hctlfpennies Wanted !
Can the ancient hero k i n g,
who was inspired by a spider,
now inspire Scots to contribute
,050,000 to his memorial?
This sunt is wanted to erect
an 'equestrian statue to King Ro-
bert the Bruce on the field of
Bannockburn where, 647 years
ago, he and his followers slaugh-
tered a 17,000 -strong English
army.
In launching a world-wide ap-
peal for this cause, Lord Clyde,
the Lord Justice General of Scot-
land, is asking for "a bawbee
for Bruce."
Already, a promising trickle
has started, some of it coaling
from patriots living as far west
as Vancouver and as far cast
as Tokyo.
Lord Clyde calculates that
there are 25,000,000 Scots spread
over the globe today. If each
contributes a halfpenny the
.£50,000 target will be rea'hed.
The sculptor chosen to carve
the statue is Mr. C. D'O, Pllking-
tol Jackson, who was respons-
ible for the great National War
Memorial in Edinburgh Caste.
He plans to design a statue simi-
lar in scale to the Haig monu-
ment in Whitehall.
Ideally, the memorial she',:Id
stand on the field of Bannock-
burn. But the site of the battle,
as narked on the Ordnance Sur-
vey map, is some distance off
the true place. That is now
swamped by housing and re-
claimed pastureland.
But this difficulty will not
daunt the Scots, They will erect
the memorial near the Bo►'estone
cairn, where Bruce set up his
standard the day before .the bat-
tle.

GRAIN MERCHANT PRAISES 4-11
"Our 4-H Clubs are the most effec-
tive agency in the improvement of
farming that I've seen." This is the
observation of Harold Inman, propri-
etor of a grain and feeds business in
Peterborough, Ontario.
In conversation with Harry Theobald,
Editor of the Farm Page of the Peter-
borough Examiner, Mr. Inman cited
the navies of a dozen or more former
4-11 members who are now leaders
and progressive farmers in the dist-
rict, He is impressed particularly
with the way 4-11 clubs are organized
and the influence of the program
among senior farmers,
"It is fifteen years or more since 1
began to notice the influence of 4.11
training. I can see the difference in
the boys who carried on in 4•I1 and
who are now farming on their own.
IVe certainly wish them success in
overcoming today's farming problems,
and I'm not overlooking the girls."
The opinions of men in business,
such as Mr. Inman, are most gratify-
ing to the local club leaders and direc-
tors of the movement - provincially and
nationally,
In attracting broad support in the
provinces and through the Canadian
Council on 441 Clubs, the 4-11 move
ment stands out today as one of our
finest examples of co-operative effort.
Through working in close co-operation
with the extension departments, busi-
nessmen, service clubs, farm organiza-
tions and all branches of the press can
be justly proud of their contribution to
the progress and welfare of this grow-
ing youth training program in Canada.
