A Nt?ut 1jtar octge (contributed by Rev. Il, F. Meetly, Rector of Trinity Anglican Church) "We look nut at the things whicii are seen, but 3t the things which arc not seen; for the thins which are seen nye temporal; but the Thing which are not seen aro eternal," --'2::d Corinthians 4:10. The year 1951 has; to quote Shakesperrc, "declined into the vale of ycara." It has departed taking with it all its esperienccs and all its o arlint:tleS, These will have gone to that place front where there is no recall. Consequently, the ntnrking of the passage of time, such as the 1'a,• sins, of an old year and the advent of a new, call: us to 0 coasidera! ion 01 inn' me of Cine and cur stewardship of it. It all's 115 lo a consider'• tion cf our ultimate values in life. We have to consider to what extent lltese values are richt and twbat are. the priorities which V' ;;Ave to them, Let none of us forget that, lhuugli°we live ht lime, we are not the children of time but of eternity. St. Paul dives a valid reason for tight:! tee ssson 3hc:'d r)) as 1,, ser' by faith the things which are not yet ))))anile.). He sass that the thin:: which we see in this age are passing and momentary ,ll chat ac'ter. deliberate fixing of his vision in order to see the tegmen by fa•th was a hakit on the Apostle's Tari which he would con)))tend to us. 11 is faith in action which is inspired by helm', There can he no doubt that infinite blc sings are attendant ur oft this spiritual habit of seeing by faith the unseen things of God. Life has its motives and these take their rise in the fears, hopes and con- victions which are strongest in' our minds, After all, a superficial religion has not power enough to cleanse the heart or ennoble the principle of conduct, What. is needed is a life guided by real religion based on the revealed mind and will of God. This is not seli•delus:on. It is reliance upon the word •of God Ilint::elt On a dark and dangerous night, the mariner is always glad of the guiding beams of some distant lighthouse to lead him on his way. In much the same way the plot our eours : over life's restless sea by Ili beams of Divine love flashing toward': us from the unseen and the eternal These thoughts can take us into the new year as a yicide to conduct and an inspiration to the things of faith which have their source in God.

Deep Freezing May Save Many Lives It would take about eighteen months for a man to go by space ship to Mars or Venus. As for the stars -- and the habitable planets which presumably en- circle some of them — light from even the nearest has to travel for four years at a speed of 186,324 miles a second before it reaches the Earth, In other word s, a life -tinge would be ,seeded to cross the vast void dividing this solar system from the next. But the world's scientists have a plan , If men could be deep-frozen end then brought back to life months, years or decades later, they could journey to our plan- ets and, perhaps, one day to the stars without requiring food, water or oxygen in any signifi- cant quantity. They would, in effect, be hu- man time machines, the sci- entists' version of the science - fiction writers' invention. Of course, there would prob- ably have to be spells of live "sentry" duty to see the space ship was functioning properly and also to arrange for the rapid resuscitation at planet -fall of all the floating, frozen passengers in their refrigerated "coffins." Hypothermia, t h e science of suspending "life" by extremes of cold, is only ten years old, but It is now providing one of the most dramatic advances known to medicine. Dr, Charles Huggins of Boston, who heads the government-spon- sored U.S. research team, reveal- ed recently that deep-freezing' experiments are being carried out in that country with space travel especially in mind. "It would," he s a y s, "take eighteen months to send a man to Mars or Venus in a space ship. Think of the food and water and oxygen he would need. To hold it you would require a vehicle of staggering size. If you could degrees centigrade, it would solve degrees centigrate, it would solve the problem. It would stop his heart beating and his other organs working. "Anyone whose heart ceases beating for five minutes is tech- nically dead. But if we could bring him back afterwards , ." That is the big snag. To pre- serve life, it seems that every- thing must be frozen quickly and simultaneously so that no part of the body, whether it be big toe or the brat n, has a chance to decay while other parts are still functioning. The effect must be like that when a motion picture is sud- denly arrested. At absolute zero, which is ap- proximately 273 degrees below zero centigrade, all molecular motion stops, And it is now pos- sible to register 265 degrees be- low in a laboratory deep freeze. To bring a man back to life from such an advanced state of suspended animation, it is thought it will be necessary to zoom him up rapidly to 37 de- grees centigrade, the normal body temperature, and also to give his heart a restarting jolt and his lungs a respiratory action. Meanwhile, in Moscow, scien- tists are talking about the fan- tastic experiments of Russia's top heart specialist, Professor ladimir Negovski, who claims to have revived more than 3,000 people after they were declared "clinically dead." He, too, is working on the preservation — or suspension — of life through deep freezing in the hope that a planet -bound cosmonaut can be "rested" for weeks, months or years! This year the driver of a bull- dozer was lost in a snowdrift on the Caucasian mountains. Thirty hours later his body, frozen stiff, was recovered. The Russian newsagency Tess reported ' that there was a film of ice over the man's eyes, "When his rescuers tapped him with a hammer, his frozen body gave out a hollow, wooden sound," After• adrenalin had been in- jected, the man's body was rub- bed with oil and alcohol and ta- ken to Professor Negovski's la- boratory. There, in five hours, he brought the driver back to life! Britain is not lagging behind in this amazing new science — with its infinite possibilities, not only of frozen immortality, but as a tremendous aid to surgery, writes Basil Bailey in "Tit -Bits." At the National Institute for Medical Research, Mill Hill, London, warm • blooded animals have been frozen almost solid and then revived completely — without suffering any apparent Injury or loss of powers, They were refrigerated in a special apparatus by Dr. Audrey Smith until they became as hard as wood, Breathing stopped, the heart beat and all other signs of life disappeared. Atter as long as half an hour in this condition the animals were warmed by a beam of hot light focused on their chests. Their hearts began to beat again, breathing restarted and, within a few minutes, they were running around normally, Says shy, soft-spoken Dr. Audrey Smith: "The stopping of heartbeats does not mean an ani- mal is dead. By treating certain organs with glycerol small crea- tures c a n be stored in deep- freeze indefinitely. They are still alive — and no older — when thawed out," Dr, Alan Parkes, who also works at Mill Hill Research In- stitute, said recently: "As knowl- edge increases, the means of resuscitation will extend, so that what constitutes death to- day will not necessarily consti- tute death tomorrow," Hypothermia heralds the era of spare -part medicine. By freezing human organs and storing them, surgeons believe that one day it may he possible to transplant kidneys, lungs, hearts, even complete limbs, af- ter the blood cells have been kept in a state of suspended animation, Already the new technique is being used to freeze parts of the body while delicate operations are performed. By lowering temperatures ,even more, the time may come when coronary artery disease — that killer of so many old peo- ple — will also be curable under the knife. The brain, too, can be slowed down by freezing to allow extra time for a tricky operation. The British Medical Journal told last year of a thirty -seven-year-old woman who was saved by such deep-freeze treatment at Guy's Hospital, London, There have been many similar cases throughout the world, but perhaps the most remarkable concerns Mrs. Ellen Moore of Wallsend, Northumberland, who was struck on the head by a log. This twenty - three - year • old mother - to - be was unconscious for 169 days — six of them under deep-freeze, Yet her baby was born while she lay in a coma, and the child suffered no ill- effects! After treatment under deep- freeze to her injured brain, Mrs, Moore also recovered, HORSEPLAY — Film star Yul Brynner lends his white cloth hat to friend an the location site near Salta, Argentina, where his new movie, o historical drama, is being filmed.

Grandma Moses — A Sincere Tribute When Anna Marty Robertson Moses was born 101 years ago, there were many painters in the United States, uneducated and unknown. They painted pictures for their homes and their famili- es. There was not much discus- sion about merit, and certainly no reference was made to their value. In the generation in which we live, there has been a pressing revival of American art history, a search for artifacts, and an ap- petite for Americana, for art of the people, art nurtured on the land, Grandma Moses was a charac- teristic woman living down coun- try, preoccupied with her family, with faun chores, with religion. It was in character for a woman like this to be exceedingly mo- dest, To Grandma it was no more important to paint a picture than it was to cook a batch of berry jam, or to embroider a fine piece, In her rural, domestic, happily unsophisticated world there was no division between major or minor art, between the status of DIES AT 101 -- Grandma Moses --- Anna Mary Robert- son Moses -- died in Hoosick Falls, N.Y. aged 101. the brush or the needle. She had a sound, wholesome, healthy standard of values, her own def- inition of what was good and beautiful. To Grandma a picture was good when it was "pretty," A picture was a recording of what she saw, what she knew, a re- membrance of times past, of the beauty of valleys and hills seen from a window in the farmhouse; a snowstorm, in which she dili- gently filled out all the spaces with downy white snowflakes; springtime on the farm, the live- stock, the industrious farmers plowing the good earth. Grand- ma painted railroad trains, and the old-time automobile, in her pictures there was a good deal of fun, picnics, skating, country fairs, She painted farm- houses, barns, and the white church with its tall spire; she painted the picket fences, It was not until after Grand- ma Moses was 80 years old that she was "discovered" in her simple rustic living, and adver- tised. The massive promotion of a beloved elderly woman with a genuine talent was an utter in- consistency. The pressures and public ac- claim could not touch a person of her character, She had no higher opinion of herself as a painter after the moment of national recognition. She continued to work, and she spoke in her mo- dest provincial manner. She wrote the notes for her endear- ing autobiography, a touching human document, in the opinion of Dorothy Adlow, Art Critic of the Christian Science Monitor, The memory of this elderly woman was prodded and urged so that she managed to think back to her first Thanksgiving Day in 1864, and to the black bunting that marked the passing of Abraham Lincoln, Her early pictures Grandma ISSUE 1 — 1962 would draw, and then color with grape juice or berries, She call- ed her pictures "very pretty lambscnpes," Throughout her life she en- joyed painting for Christmas gifts "and things like that." She simply picked up the paintbrush when her sister Celestia suggest- ed, "I think you could paint better and faster than you could do worsted pictures." Painting for her until the mo- ment of nationwide recognition was a pastime, like fancywork. But when a gentleman from New York called in Hoosick Falls and showed some interest in buying her paintings, everything chang- ed. All the pictures she had were sold. One was large, so Grand- ma simply cut it down the mid- dle and made two pictures out of it, The rest is history, As a painter Grandma Moses shared certain traits with other untutored talented painters, of whom there are many. Every- thing she painted was rendered as clearly and descriptively as possible. Often architectural de- tails were carried out in a more expert manner than the human figure, Various animal species were clearly differentiated, It was unmistakable what season of the year she was describing. She had her own way of imbuing the pictures with vitality, The modern art world is oriented in other directions very remote from the thinking and the mode of visualization of a rural hone -bred painter. No Wonder city dwellers have been refresh- ed and delighted by the honesty and unaffectedness of our primi- tives, In Grandma Moses there was unmistakable talent; a buoyancy, an ever -replenishing liveliness, She achieved a position in the public eye for quaintness and skill; but a proper estimate of Grandma Moses should embrace with the achievement and the painter.

When They Painted The Schoolhouse October was a good month in our little Wisconsin village. Even the boys who had thought the opening of school something of a catastrophe were getting recon- ciled to it now, and most of us welcomed It after the long va- cation, especially when we found that Miss Ellen Anderson, the new primary room teacher, wasn't going to be so bad after call, All over our little farming community, people had been very busy getting the fall work done, Deer Forest kitchens were fragrant with grapes being node into jam and jelly, It was fun to come in from school and lind Mamma filling rows of jelly glasses with clear purple liquid that miraculously would turn in- to firm, sparkling jelly in an hour or two. But now came a lull In all this activity and people began to think a little fun would he in order. "I wish we could think of aomething new," Mamma said one evening at supper, "We've done the same old things over and over - box socials and har- vest socials and church bazaars and-" "Miss Ellen's got an idea," I ventured, "She thinks it would be nice if everybody got together and painted the schoolhouse." There was a moment's almost stunned silence, Papa, who was on the schoolboard, didn't seem at all pleased, "The schoolhouse doesn't look so bad," he said, "Had it painted just-" "It was over five years ago," Mamma said, "It does look pretty shabby, but it hardly seems a new teacher's place to mention it. Did Miss Ellen say that right out in class?" "Oh, no," I said quickly. 1 really liked Miss Ellen, and it seemed I had said the wrong thing, as I realized I often did, "I heard her talking to Miss Crabtree, She said the place her sister taught, the whole village got together and painted the schoolhouse, and trade a kind of picnic of it." "And what did Miss Crabtree think r,f it?" Papa asked, Miss Cral: .e was our principal, for wh•_n, he had great respect. "She said that was quite an idea and maybe it would make the big boys take more interest in the school, as if it kind of belonged to them, and Miss Ellen said yes, it did, and did Miss Crabtree think maybe we could do it here? Our building could use a coat of paint and it might be tun for a fall get-together. But bliss Crabtree said no, she was afraid not." "1 wonder why not," said Papa, "We]), she said paint and things were expensive, and the board had spent a lot of money on new desks for the upstairs room last year, and anyway they might not like to have the teachers act- ing as if they weren't satisfied and-" "i1^.m-hmm," said Papa thought- fully. "Well, maybe I'll drop over and talk to Miss Crabtree," • I went flying back to school that Poon, eager to report to Miss Ellen, But to my surprise she looked alarmed instead of pleas- ed. "Oh, 'Alta!" she exclaimed. "You didn't go home and tell your papa I thought the school- house needed a coat of paint, did you? And how did you know about it, anyway?" "Well, 1 just kind of heard you and Miss Crabtree talking," Z faltered, "and I thought maybe it Papa knew he could do some- lihing about it, And I guess he's fuming to school this afternoon," added, feeling very much de- lated. "Oh, Alta!" said Miss Ellen again. "Well, it was my own fault, but I just didn't realize-" I saw Papa walking into the schooly'ard as we went out, and waited at home somewhat anx- iously for word of his visit. To my great relief he was GONE TO HIS HEAD - This chimpanzee seems to be tak- ing the success of his brethren who are successful artists too seriously, Named "Gentle- man Jim," he has free run of .Southampton Zoo, England. smiling when he came up to re - poll. "I guess Alta wasn't very popular at school this afternoon," he said. "At first Miss Crabtree and especially Miss Ellen, didn't want to talk about the painting at all. They said it was just a lit- tle chat they were having that Alta happened to overhear, and they certainly hadn't made any plans. But when I said it wasn't a had idea, 1 could see they'd been thinking and talking about it some." "How about buyirg the paint; had they thought of that?" ask- ed Mamma, "Yes, that little Miss Ellen is full of ideas. r can see why the children like her, This will give a chance for people to get better acquainted with her." "'That alight be a good thing, folks seem to think she's a little 'citified' or even a little stuck- up. I think it's more likely she's a little shy'." "Well, anyway, she said now the ladies have all been making jelly and jam. Why not have a pancake lunch and let everybody bring some of their fresh jellies, and make a small charge and-" "Goodness, we couldn't make pancakes fcr a crowd like that - hungry as bears!" exclaimed Mamma, "Oh, no! The ladies would have to bring baked beans and haat and things. The pancakes would be for dessert. I think the teachers would bring jelly too." "We'd better have the lunch in the town hall," said Manana, The village was a little dubi- ous about the plan at first, As Mamma had said, people were not at all sure Miss Ellen was going to fit into our little town. But Miss Crabtree was highly respected, and her approval of the pian helped, Mamma talked about it at Ladies' Aid, and Papa talked about it in the store, writes Alta Halverson Seymour in the Christian Science Monitor. The idea spread, It would save the town money, and be fun too, Finally someone said, "Why not have it next Saturday while the good weather holds?" The Ladies' Aid took chaigo of refreshments. Mr, Sakrison at the hardware store undertook to supply paints and brushes at cost; Uncle Martin at the lumber yard promised planks for scaf- folding. "What's Miss Ellen going to do? She's the one who thought of it" I asked. "She's promised to keep you children busy - and out of the paint," said Manana. "If she suc- ceeds in that she's going to win the respect of the town." Miss Ellen kept us busy all right. She let us help decorate, and first we had to get the leaves, and there were many er- rands, We had a busy morning, "Did you bring jelly too, Miss Ellen?" I asked her, hoping she had "Oh, yes, I did," she said proudly, "Mrs. Malum, where I live, let me use her kitchen, and 1 brought a big jar." The pancakes were a great suc- cess and the jellies were handed around and high complimented. 1 was not the only one who look- ed on with interest when Miss Ellen's tall jar was brought out. Papa was the first to put a spoon into it, and he looked a little surprised, For instead of a good firm jelly, out carne a spoon of syrup. "Olt!" exclaimed Miss Ellen in dismay. "It didn't jell, after all; And I thought I did everything right." Aunt Rachel, who made the best jelly of all, spoke up quick- ly, "Well, you know, I think grape syrup is awfully good on pancakes," she said, "Me, too," said one of the farmers, "My mother used to make it, and I haven't had any since, Could I have a little of that, Gilbert?" Everybody wanted to try the syrup; everybody said how good it was, Instead of !milting flushed and embarrassed, Miss Ellen began to beam, When the ladies polite- ly asked for her recipe, she made such a funny story of it that she had everyone laughing, "And by the time I was through, I had it all over my arms, and it was so sticky, 1 was just sure it would jell," she finished, "Well," said Papa that evening, "the schoolhouse surely looks nice., And the paint is all paid for, Some folks think it was so much fun we should arrange a day to put on another coat, But we might wait.till next year for that." ' "Yes," said Mamma thought- fully, "and one of the best things about it is the way folks took to Miss Ellen. Some of them thought she was - well, you know, may- be aybe just a •little too smart." "Well, she is smart," 1 de- fended her quickly. "Yes, she is," Mamma agreed, "and I kind of think one of the smartest things she ever did was to make that jelly that didn't quite jell," "He never smokes, drinks, swears, plays cards, he's never married.

Perhaps only one person could still believe that Adolf Eich- mann should actually have been acquitted, and that was his wife, Veronika, "Dear Adolf could' never have killed," she said in Munich, in a copyrighted inter- view with Colin Lawson of The London Express, "I'm convinced my Adolf is not guilty, I am absolutely sure he w ill come back to nae and the children" ISSUE 1 - 1962 The Deadly Game Of Espionage It was not the sort of situa- tion usually faced by middle- aged department -store cashiers from Karlsruhe, West Germany, and plump Frau Hermine Wer- ner plainly was not up to it. Clutching a white handkerchief, she looked up at Maj, Gen. Peter Arkhipovich, the court president at last month's Soviet military tribunal, and sobbed: "Yes, I am a spy - but I did not know at the time I was one." Sitting next to Frau Werner in Kiev's bare -walled House of Architects was her husband, Ade!ph, 51, an ex -sergeant in the Nazi Waffen SS and a shoe salesman in the same Karlsruhe store. The couple had been ar- rested and charged with espio- nage while touring the Ukraine; now they told the courts they had been recruited by two Americans named "Johnson" and "Dan" to photograph Soviet in- stallations during their vacation tout• Mu. ch of the testimony had a self -degrading Kafkaesque ring about it. "The capitalists," Wer- ner said, "found one more fool (himself) to pull chestnuts out of the fire for them." Werner also admitted dictating notes to' his wife which he then wrote in a notebook in invisible ink. The court sentenced Werner to fifteen years' imprisonment, his wife to seven (American U-2 pilot Francis Gary Powers got only a ten-yeer term). Werner obligingly commented: "T h e Americans themselves 'are too cowardly to spy - they would rather use Germans." The emphasis on "Germans" was typical of recent chafes made at Soviet spy trials. Since September, no fewer than seven alleged "American agents" have been tried in Russia - and only one, Marvin W. Makinen (eight years in jail), a student . from Ashburnham, Mass,, has been identified as a U.S. citizen, All the rest were "hired Europeans" - among them two Dutchmen (thirteen years apiece), one o1 whom confessed to spying on So= viet ports for the past five years. Only a few weeks ago, two other C.:rmans, Peter Sonntag, 22,' and Walter Naumann, 27, were sen- tenced to twelve years' impri- sonment after telling a Moscow court that U.S. agents identified as "Mark" and "Olsen" had re- cruited then in the Red Ox tavern in IIeidelberg. The most intriguing case re- vealed by the U.S. document concerns an American girl work- ing for the U.S. military in Ger- many. "Eleanor," as the docu- ment named her, met an "Ameri- can" named "Paul" at the Em- bassy Club in Bad Godesberg, a favourite hangout for diplomats and military personnel working, in Bonn. Soon they were having an affair. Eleanor received an urgent message that Paul had been injured in an automobile accident in East Berlin. All this happened before the Berlin wall went up, and Elea- nor rushed to visit hint. On her second visit, Paul asked her to to take out a roll of film, She was seized by East German po- lice, and the films turned out to be pictures of . Communist military equipment. Allowed to speak to her for a few minutes, Paul told Elea- nor that he was a Western in- telligence agent. Deeply in love, Eleanor promised to help him. At this point, the American girl was taken before a Soviet offi- cer, a man later identified as Yevgeniy Alekseyevich Zaos-• trovtsev - formerly Second Se- cretary at the Soviet Embassy in Washington who had been asked (unofficially) to leave the U.S. back in 1959, Zaostrovtsev offered to re- lease Paul if Eleanor would steal coded documents. She signed a statement binding herself to the services of Soviet espionage. But when Eleanor got back to West Germany, the State Department says, she spilled the whole story to her boss. Ile checked up at once and found that Paul was not American, but a fast-moving Soviet intelligence agent. Double agents, of course, are by no means unusual, Yet there are few spies to compare in ver- satility with Ernst Ascher, who was arrested last month when the police caught him crossing the Austro-Hungarian border wear- ing plastic covers on his shoes - to Over up his tracks. Ascher, an ex -Nazi who escaped from Russia during World War II wearing a Red Army uniform, confessed he was working simul- taneously for the Czechs, the Hungarians, the West Germans, and the U.S. - and as such, was doing no harm.

Ye cannot serve God and mannan. Matthew 6:2.1. heathen religions are charac- terized by their many gods and goddesses. But the Bible, Old and New Testaments, asserts, "The Lord our God is one Lord." The first commandment follows logi- cally from this truth, "Thou' shalt have no other gods before ate." A person can only have one God, To think of having two or • more is to reduce the status of God. There is no God if there are many. Only one Being can • be supreme, almighty. There isn't room for more than one such Being. Only one can command the love of all our heart, soul, Inind and strength. Any other who enters'the life claiming such whole -hearted devotion, is an in- truder, an enemy of God. • Arnold's Commentary points out that Pittrint Sorokin in his American Sex Revolution cites scientific data to support conclu- sions that those who deal loosely in matters of sexual behaviour, yielding themselves to many partners likewise hold a poly- theistic (many gods) view of divinity. The correlations in the study indicate that the two ir- regularities go hand in hand: polygamy (more than one spouse) and polytheism (more than one god) are found to be embraced by the same people. His study further cites the fact that by changing the behaviour pattern of savages and limiting then to one spouse (monogamy) a second change immediately follows.• The persons rise to a concept of one god.

W., MONTREAL —41 School -Bus Driver Took Fatal Chance It was the kind of dazzling winter clay that is Colorado at its best — the sky pale blue and feathered with cirrus; the tem- perature a dry and invigorating 10 degrees. in the fertile farm- ing district of Auburn, some 50 miles northeast of Denver, the sun glittered on a fresh snowfall that covered the sugar -beet fields; but the road from the prosper- ous Auburn farms to the schools of Greeley, seven miles distant, was plowed clear, In such stimulating !weather, and with only three classroom days left before Christmas vaca- tion, the 37 children in the school bus from Auburn to Greeley were at their most exuberant — joking, laughiti, shouting, carol- ing. The cheerful din was enough to cut off sounds from outside the bus, just as the mois- ture of the children's breaths fogged the side windows, When 23 -year-old Duane Harris, the school -bus driver (since last September) approached the Un- ion Pacific grade crossing just southwest of Auburn, unmarked by warning flashes, he was en- joying, the children's merriment. And he keew no scheduled train pased there between 6:15 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. It was then 7:59 a.m. Cruelly, what 1 -lamps did not know was that from Chicago all the way west the train that should have passed at 6:15 a.nl. — Union Pacific's streamlined City of Denver — had been thrown further and further be- hind schedule because of the volume of Christmas mail it was picking up. By the time the train approached the Auburn grade crossing that ns Ening, Herbert F. Sommers, an engineer for 22 of his 64 years, had his giant diesel moaning across the prairie itt 79 miles per hour. Sommers and his fireman, Melvin C. Swanson, 48, saw the bus clearly as they bore down on the intersection. "I sure hope he stops," Swan- son said, "There are children in that bus." Sommers blew three warning blasts on his air horn and slammed on the train's em- ergency brakes. "The bus slow- ed down like it was going to #top," he said afterward, "I guess jt slowed to about 5 miles an our, Then he stepped on the gas , .." The City of Denver sliced the bus almost in half, shunting the front off to its left, diagging the rear section for a quarter of Et :vile, It strewed the right-of- way with the broken bodies of children and scattered among then the Christmas presents they planned to exchange, their schoolbags and lunch boxes, their Lovable Dolls Ly Lt.?.1NbAL Just a pair of man's socks — a few scraps of fabric, make these cutest 'jama dolls!

When the toll of the worst vehicular disaster in Colorado's history (and one of the worst in the nation's) finally was counted, it was: Twenty children dead; thirteen seriously injured. Five escaped with minor injuries, four children — and driver Duane Harms. After two days of hearings and investigation, Harms was charg- ed at the weekend with invol- untary manslaughter, a misde- meanor that is punishable by a year in jail. Under intensive questioning, he finally had ad• niitted that: (1) Ile night not have brought the bus to a full stop at the crossing; (2) he might not have opened his door to look out; (3) the visibility was poor because of fogged windows. Harms, in palpable misery, said: "I should have gotten clear out, because it's at such an angle there . , . because in order to see anything at all, a fellow really should get out of the bus • ." Joe Brantner, whose sugar - beet farm is half a mile from the crossing, was one of the first to arrive at the scene, searching for the two of his eight children who had boarded the bus min- utes before — Kathy, 9, and Mark, 6. "I found Kathy right away," he said numbly. ''I knew she was dead, 1 couldn't find Mark . , . I looked and looked, but 1 couldn't find him, Then I went for any wife and when we got back I found him right away. He was tore up so bad I hadn't recognized him at first." Brantner's neighbors, Ruben Alles, just kept repeating of his 10 -year-old daughter, Lind a: "She . was going to decorate the Christmas tree tonight .. ," —From NEWSWEEK U.S. Hoodlums Fleeing To Canada One thing the 87th Congress can really blow its trumpet about — and there are few enough things — is the legisla- tion it enacted to help bust big- time crime, There was, as At- torney General Kennedy re- minded everyone (recently) m o r e fresh legislation against major crime passed by Congress this year than at any time since the era of Public Enemy No, .1 John Dillinger, which means about 1934, Already the effect is being felt, The attorney general claims gamblers throughout the nation have been curtailing their ille- gal activities so they will be less vulnerable to federal prosecu- tion. Hoodlums are reported by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police to be fleeing to Canada. "The new laws are well known to the hoodlums and racketeers in this country, if not to the general public," Kennedy said. Neatly all the new laws touch in some way or another on inter- state aspects of racketeering — crossing state lines to establish illegal "business enterprises" involving gambling, liquor, nar- cotic ar- cotic s, prostitution; interstate wire communications for gambl- ing, interstate shipment of fire- arms, and so on, The point the attorney general has made is that much of this big-time crime can be stopped — if the public wants it stop- ped. The public got tired of Appalachin mobsters openly flouting the law, and the outcry helped bring about these new laws. Just as the outcry in the murky 'Thirties brought a new vigor to law enforcement thirty years ago, We have no idea how long it will be before the $2 bet is ef- fectively outlawed, but when enough people get mad enough to raise the roof about that, too, we shall see some even 'more radical changes, For it is the. little people, the small rackets, the "harmless" gamble that pro- vide the base on which the big rackets are built.

RONICLES ¶i1NGERFARM Ci,doUza DCtALka Queer, how the sound of a voice can take you back years and years. I turned on the radio Saturday morning in time to hear Dr. John Brown — secretary of the Ontario Fruit and Vegetable Growers' Association. I haven't seen or spoken to John for years but he and our son Bob were great friends when they were boys, They used to have a mar- vellous time, mostly at John's home because up there they had lovely woods for camping and an ever -running stream that could be dammed up in places to make a swimming t ng ho le, And for years John's mother and 1 were closely associated in W.I. work—right up to the time we sold the farm. Ivirs. Brown is still active in the same Institute 1 always think of the Brown's in connection with strawberries. We always got our berries there and they were the best in the district. Now to pass on to other sub- jects. Just recently when the tem- perature dropped to five above I thought it was time to get my. fur coat out of storage, That was easier said than done, Do you know it took me two days to get through to the department store where I had it stored! All on ac- count of the Christmas rush. I finally got through one morning at 8:30. Then Partner asked me to order hien some light -weight woollen underwear which could only be bought in one particular store and it wasn't the one where my coat was in storage. So I started phoning again, This time all I got was Santa Claus. When he got through "I-Io-ho-ing" then I got a busy signal, I was almost tearing my hair before I was through with those two little jobs, And I still haven't got my coat, Saturday morning I got a ride down town with a neighbour and did a bit of last minute shop- ping. We were in Simpson's at nine o'clock and through in less than two hours, So it paid to go early, And oh! such lovely things to look at. I could have been carried away a dozen times but all I bought in a big way was a good pair of snow -boots. By the time they were paid for there wasn't much left in my purse. Unfortunately I can't wear cheap winter boots — but I certainly wasn't prepared to pay $20 for them! Isn't that a terrific price? After lunch Partner and I got ourselves dressed and went to "Open House" at the home of the gentleman who got in for council at the last Township election. He has a beautiful estate — 65 acres — with a lovely house that overlooks the ravine with the Credit River running through it, I won't be satisfied unless Lean take a look at it in the 'spring, I am sure the view must be breath -taking, Well, fan -mail letters and cards have been coming in, Some I cannot answer because there was no address but I do thank you One and all for your good wishes and your continued interest in my column, You know I often think about the variety of homes into which this column goes — rich and poor, big and small. I wail knew more about you all—your homes, your en- vironment and your problems— because as you know everyone has problems. Right around it is new babies right new. One mother has just given birth to a baby after being three months in hospital. Today her neighbour across the road also had a baby girl—and got to the hospital with only fifteen minutes to spare! Among my mail yesterday was a letter from a nephew in Eng- land whose wife is expecting her fourth in February. I ani hoping it will be a boy as Desmond and his wee son Roger are the last of the line in our branch of the Fitz -Gerald family so another boy will improve the chance of family survival. Then of course there are letters concerning the other side of the ledger — people passing away or going into hospital due to illness or- accidents, Too bad when the necessity arises but on the other hand how wonderful that we have such good hospitals to care for them. One letter gave me quite a scolding. It said—"For a per- son who is supposed to take it easy I am wondering if you know the meaning of the word!" You and my doctor too, Mrs. M.! But then you know the saying —"It is better to wear out than rust out." Look • at Grandma Moses—see what a full life she had, She started painting at the' age when a lot of elderly people spend most of their time nursing their aches and pains — which don't become less by receiving undue attention. And there are other kinds of worries—problem children, uncongenial in - laws, houses you want to sell and can't, and other financial problems, Even a business transfer creates a problem—moving to a district where you don't know a soul. Anyway here's hoping all's well that ends well—in 1962. Q. I have been invited to a bridal shower in honor of a good friend, but I have a previous commitment . that . will , prevent my attending. Should I send a gift to the shower? A. This is the proper and thoughtful thing to do. Tho Day The Sea Rose 270 Feet Tearing, grinding, crashing, it swept along the British North Atlantic coastline leaving inde- scribable scenes of devastation along every mile of its grim wake, That was hurricane Betsy, a storm of unsurpassed fury which destroyed tvherever it struck. Mountainous seas and super gale - force winds heralded its on- slaught: nothing in its direct path could survive. None who witnessed the ocean's turbulence when Betsy blasted will ever forget the gigantic seas which seemed to roar up from the very depths. But just how high were those dense and craggy walls of water? Terms such as "gigantic," "mountainous" and "towering" have been loosely used by old salts and landlubbers to describe those solid masses of ocean whoso spectacle and awe-inspiring pro- portions have so much appealed to the imagination but which have hitherto escaped a more down -lo -earth mathematical ap- praisal, Winter is now on us. Storm clouds have already become fa- miliar, Beneath their dark shad- ow the seas around the coasts have risen again in all their wrathful majesty, and before spring and summer are with us once more some shall have talk- ed in wonder of the great waves they have witnessed. But as we button our coats to winter's blast or sit by a comfort- able fire we can speculate on just how high those waves will really be at the height of the greatest storms. Oceanographers are speculat- ing too, But they are going one practical step further, They are making new attempts to pleasure the height of waves and the news has just been released that, by means of an automatic wave recorder they have actually meas- ured a wave nearly seventy feet high, This is the highest reading they have so far taken, So now you don't have to be- lieve old sailors' stories of waves which were "mountain high." But you can believe Commander Frank Worsley, D.S.O,, who noted in 1932 that the 49 -955 -ton liner Leviathan was once struck by a wave of extraordinary sire. "It came suddenly out of the general run of the sea, seemed to tower 'above the vessel like a mountain;''and then burst on her with terrific force," he said. "The wave threw spray over her funnels which stood 130ft. above sea level. It smashed four lifeboats, bent the heavy steel deck supports, swept away deck gear, rushed into the third-class accommodation and flooded the dining room saloon to the depth of a foot." A new spectrum analysis of sea waves has already resulted in considerable improvement in the methods used for predicting waves from forecast weather charts, says Dr. G. E. R. Deacon, director of the National Institute of Oceanography, Almost incredible damage has resulted from monster waves breaking on the shore. At Bilbao harbour, Spain, massive waves overturned a solid length of breakwater weighing 1,700 tons. When a wave reaches shore and meets solid resistance it may fling itself to a stupendous height, At Peterhead, Scotland, a wave is stated to have reached a height of 120ft. At an Alderney breakwater a height of 200ft. is believed to have been observed, A wave observed by Sir James Douglas, the lighthouse engineer, holds the record of all properly ob- served waves, according to a me- teorologist who conducted re- search in 1928. "It threw gravel from the sea bed on to the platform of the lighthouse of the Bishop Rock, Scilly," he reported, "The plat- form is 120ft, above normal sea level and the sea' there is 150ft. deep, As the gravel must have been snatched from the sea bed in the sea's upward sweep the total wave height from trough to crest was therefore 27011.." Modern Etiquette l9' Anne Ashley Q. Are correspondence cards considered in good taste? A, Yes; and they are very pop- ular for the short, informal type of note. It is becoming more and more customary for men and wo- men to use these cards, but they are not acceptable for any strict- ly formal correspondence. Q. Is it proper to mail birth announcements t o all o 11 e's friends, even to those whom one has already telephoned the good news? A. It would seem foolish to mail announcements to those who have already been told the news. But to all others — whether in town or far away — mailed an- nouncements are proper.

ISSUE 1 — 1962 NEW CIVIL DEFENSE WRINKLE—Leslie Palmer, civil defense director of Waukesha County, Wis , scurries out of the way after setting off a small aerial bomb as a civil defense signal. Palmer suggests using fireworks bombs to warn parents their children are being sent home from school because of an emergency. Bombs can be heard three miles, their smoke seen farther. Palmer considers his plan instant mass communication, Many Hospitals Are Fire Traps Is our hospital adequately pro- tected against ;ire? This grim question was re- peated across the nation last month in the wake of the 're- cent Hartford (Conn.) Hospital f re which killed sixteen pa- tients, visitors, and hospital em- ployes. One attack upon hospital safe- ty regulations came last month from the New York ,City fire commissioner, Edward P. Cav- anagh Jr., who studied the scene of the Hartford blaze while Ion) police guarded the smok- ing hospital corricl r for pos- sible new outbreaks. Even though the cause of that fire is still uncertain, Cavanagh pin- pointed one weakness in his own city's hospitals. "Eight out of ten (hospital) fires . , are caused by careless smoking," he said, as he demanded tighter smoking regulations. 'rhe National Fire Prevention Association in Boston estimates) that in 1960 there were 1,500 fires in the U.S, nation's 6,876 hospitals, accounting for $1,5 mil- lion in damage. A recent study of 600 fires in hospitals, the NEPA said, showed that only 20,9 per cent were caused by careless smoking. Among the other causes: Defective wiring, electrical appliances, and static electricity, 23 per cent; mishand- ling of oxygen and anesthetics 7.4 per cent. "More important than the cause of a fire is finding out why it spread so far so fast," :he N" 1 said. One reason for the Hartford disaster, the associa- tion's engineers said, was that a janitor fought the blaze for halt an hour before turning in an alarm. The fire roared up a waste chute and fed on ceiling tile made of highly combustible sugarcane. "We tell our employes not to be embarrassed to turn in a fire alarm," a Johns Hopkins Hospi- tal official pointed out. "We'd rather answer 50 false alarms than be an hour late for a fire." Fire habards in a hospital in- clude the usual ones found in any home, restaurant, or hotel, and the unusual ones resulting from the use of highly combus- tible gases and chemicals in operating rooms and labs. Am- ong the fire precautions taken in many of the best hospitals are: Smoking; "If we outlawed it, patients would be sneaking smokes and we wouldn't have se ntrol over them," the Univer- sity of California Hospital in San Francisco reported, Like most hospitals, UC allows patients to Smoke when not tinder sedatives or oxygen therapy. Waste Chutes: "Fires can start from cigarette butts dropped In waste containers, then dumped down waste chutes," a spokes- man for Passavant Memorial Hospital in Chicago pointed out. "We sealed up our chutes long ago." Operating rooms; "Static elec- tricity — which could spark an explosion of anesthetic gases — isn't a problem in our area of high humidity," said an official at Charity Hospital in New Orleans, "but we take the routine precautions anyhow. We don't permit woolens or nylons in the operating room. Everyone wears shoes with composition 'soles, and we ground the anesthesiolo- gist." "The Hartford fire was tragic," said Percy Bugbee, general man- ager of the National Fire Pro- tection Association, "but it may have one good result. It is a forceful reminder , . . that any hospital, no matter how safe, must be examined again and again for fire hazards," --Froin NEWSWEEK One American View Of Canada's Problem Prime Minister Diefenbaker's administration is beginning to face up to the prospect that the United Kingdom may join the Common Market. The Canadian Prime Minister is not finding this prospect easy to live with. He has made a great effort, with not too much progress, to shift more of Canada's trade toward the United Kingdom. !lis whole orientation has been toward the Commonwealth and the mother country. Now he is being told by Her Majesty's government that the United Kingdom may move in the opposite direction. Present estimates of how Ca- nadian trade will be influenced by Britain's entry into the Com- mon Market are vague. Of total exports to the United Kingdom in 1960, amounting to $915 mil- lion, some 76 per cent would be adversely affected by the loss of preferred status, by new tariff barriers or by both. Hardest hit would be agricultural and fish- ery products. The president of the Canadian Exporters' Asso- ciation recently estimated that these might be cut to as little as $100 million, unless new ar- rangements are made for their benefit, The exporters' spokes- man foresaw the loss of almost half of Canada's total exports to the United Kingdom and slim profits on the remainder. Conjectures like these explain the intense concern of Canadians with the decisions about to be made by the British. They must nevertheles be seen in perspec- tive, even assuming that the figures are not exaggerated, as guesses born of apprehension sometimes are. Canada's exports to the United Kingdom account for only 17 per cent of her total exports. They are about 2'/z per cent of Canada's gross national product. Annual fluctuations in Canada's exports often have been of the order of several hundred million dollars, and the loss of trade resulting from the Common M ark e t presumably would be spread over a period of perhaps ten years. Canada, moreover, has already taken ac- tion to strengthen her exports and her balance of payments by depreciating t h e Canadian dollar by over 5 per cent, In an emergency! this 'device could be used again,. although at a cost to the rest of the Canadian economy as well as to the sta- bility of international financial relations, In assessing the consequences of the Common Market for Ca- nada and others, there is a dan- ger, too, of concentrating too narrowly on immediate effects of tariff changes. The total economic consequences need to be examined, the advantages as w e 11 as the disadvantages. Growth of the British economies will accelerate. The political strength of the West will be en- hanced, Canada and the rest of the world are bound to reap compensatory advantages. — Washington Post There's so lntfch inflation now, there's no money in money.

Kindness Proves A Killer To Refugees From Far -Off Island EIGHT-YEAR-OLD Tristan refuges: is taught how to give hand signals while riding a bicycle. By TOM A, CULLEN Newspaper Enterprise Association LONDON — (NEA) — Warm- hearted Britons are sadly begin- ning to realize that kindness may sometimes be a killer, The lesson is being taught them by the experiences of the 262 refugees from the volcano - wrecked •island of Tristan da Cunha who landed here this fall. The brown -eyed, brown -skin- ned Tristans are incredibly inno- cent to the ways of the world. Until their South Atlantic island was destroyed on Oct. 10, only eight of them had seen the out- side world, The rest had never seen an automobile, television or a telephone, The British quickly took them to their bosom, The Women's Volunteer Service, the Red Cross and local school children have done their best to brighten with curtains, rugs and flowers the wooden barracks in which the Tristans have been housed at an army camp near Merstham, Sur- rey. But the sweet -tempered and likable Tristans have a terrible weakness. Innocent of the me- chanical marvels of industrial civilization, they also have no resistance to its diseases. They are vulnerable to the first virus that comes along, So far three of them have died of pneumonia, despite anti- biotics and every other medical aid. The first death in exile — that of Johnny Green, a 64 -year- old fisherman—plunged the com- munity into gloom, It was fol- lowed by two other deaths in quick succession, Three more Tristans are seri- ously ill with pneumonia, while another hundred refugees have severe cases of influenza. There are also cases of infectious jaun- dice reported. What surprises Medical experts is the suddenness and violence with which viruses attack the islanders. All three pneumonia victims, for example, dial ' -''h- in '24 hours of being aerie' :o the hospital. Deeply concerned, the Medical Research Counc. rushed a team of doctors and .1 - enlists to the army camp, includ- ing an expert on human races, specialists on blood, bacteriology and chest ailments. Viruses are not the only worry where the Tristans are concern- ed. There is the whole problem of teaching them how to live in the 20th Century. The island children are I 'ng given road safety demonstra;ic,ns, which include hand signals for those learning how to ride a bicycle. Both children and adults must learn how to -cope with pounds, shillings and pence. There are other, sadder lessons to be learned. The Tristans are, by nature, trusting, They never before had locks on their doors. Explains their chaplain, Father Charles Jewell: "Now we must teach them not to be too trusting. They must learn that there is such a thing as dishonesty in the world." Not mtich is known about the early history of Tristan da Cunha, which is located about 2,000 miles from Brazil, but there was a British garrison there until 1817. When the garrison was evac- uated, one of the soldiers, Wil- liam Glass, stayed behind. He and a handful of other Euro- peans, most of them sailors who had jumped ship, married na- tive women and founded the pre- sent colony, A return to Tristan da Cunha appears to be out of the question, but as the Christmas decorations were going up in the drab wood- en huts which are the Tristans' temporary homes, Willy Repetto, their leader, said: "It was an unhappy day for us when we left Tristan, and there will never be real happi- ness again until we go back." Wrong Signal — But It Did Save Lives The night was black and rain - swept, and when several deer bounded into the path of ns headlights, David J. Morris swerved too far to the right. The car toppled over an unguarded shoulder into a deep (120 -foot), wooded ravine in B e l le v u e, Wash., a sylvan residential com- munity just across Lake Wash- ington from Seattle, When the somersaulting car crashed to rest, Morris's wife, Em, 34, lay helpless on the soggy ground nearby, with a brain concussion and a back injury, and in critical shock. Morris, an insurance underwriter, also 34, was trapped halfway out of the right-hand door through which Mrs, Morris had been hurl- ed, the weight of the over -turned car crushing down on his chest and abdomen. With agonizing effort, Morris found he could reach the horn, What haPpened next, as the principals reconstructed it last month, was this: Gerald A, Polzin, 37, a robust, crew-cut security guard from the Boeing Co,, and his wife, June, were reading in bed in their home about a mile from the accident scene, when a strange, buzzing sound disturbed them. "It sounds like something elec- trical,", Mrs. Polzin said: Polzin turned off the light, thinking a faulty connection might be re- sponsible, but the noise persisted. Then he opened the window, and heard the faint but unmistakable sound of an automobile horn, beeping out a signal: Dah . • , dah , 4 4 dah; dit, dit, dit; dah .'. , dah , . , dah, "It's an SOS from somewhere!" Polzin said, dredging from the murk of his memory a smattering of Morse code, absorbed nearly twenty years before as an airman in World War 2.(That was just about the same time that Morris had been exposed to Morse as an Army Engineers sergeant.) Polzin squirmed into his clothes, snatched up a flashlight and his car keys, and rushed off to locate the distress signal. Once the sound grew faint, and he turned and headed in the oppo- site direction. Finally, he found it Slipping down the steep em- bankment through wet under- brush to the wreckage he almost stumbled over Mrs. Morris He grabbed an automobile robe and put it over her. "Please get me out," Morris said from beneath the automo- bile. "Take it easy. I will," Polzin said, "How is my wife?" Morris asked "She'll be all right," Polzin said With a jack from his own car, Polzin started lifting the weight of the damaged vehicle from Morris. "How's that?" he asked as the jack forced its burden up. "Better. Move it one more notch." "OK" "Just one more notch." "He said that six times," Polzin re -called. "1 knew how he felt but I said: 'I'm afraid it might roll off the jack'." Hailing a passing car with his flashlight, Po l z i n ultimately summoned police, who carted a wrecker, Later, as both Morrises were recovering satisfactorily in Over - lake Hospital, Morris said of Polzin: "If he hadn't arrived, we would have had it . , . There just aren't words to tell how 1 feel Polzin said of Morris: "He was CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING BABY CHICKS FOR early egg production, Bray has Ames and other gpod pullet varieties, 0.18 week old,now available.

In the heat of August, the top brass of Montgomery Ward & Co, gazed with approval at the proposed cover for the big mail- order house's Christmas cata- logue. It was a melting scene in: soft colours: Two small children, appealingly paj,amaed, peeking into the living room where their parents were decking the tree and piling presents around it. There were a few voices of dissent, from executives who In- sisted, quite rightly, that it's Santa who trims the tree. The majority pooh-poohed the idea. But after 6 million copies were distributed, angry letters started coming in. "I was never so upset in my life," one parent wrote. "Are you trying to kill the spirit of Santa Claus?" demanded an- other, "Y o u should be shot," said a third. The critical letters totaled only about a s c or e by last month, but Ward's was upset. Chairman John A. Barr wrote personal apologies to each pro- testing parent: "I assure you that none of us at Montgomery Ward ever had any thought of destroying one of the favourite Christmas stories , . , As a par- ent, I fully understand . , . I and my associates are very sorry that the have caused you such concern," As added balm, he enclosed as a present a book containing "The Night Before Christmas" and "Rudolph, the Red - Nosed Reindeer" (Ward's catalogue price: $2,69), The apologies d r e w a new round of letters, and Ward's was breathing easily again at the weekend. "I am rather embar- rassed," one mother wrote. "Thanks for the lovely book." Q. How can I keep the bottoms of my metal garbage and, trash containers from rusting out? A. Heat the bottoms of these containers, then drop in a piece of paraffin or candle. The wax will melt and coat the bottom of - the container so it will not rust — arid also, it will be easier to keep clean. • GUNS FOR SAL' MODERN OR ANTIQUE BOUGHT—SOLD- -EXCHANGED EXPERT REPAIRS—PARTS SERVIC Poly -Choke Installation TRADE DISCOUNTS MONTHLY CATALOGUE 250 The Modem Gun Shop "CANADA'S GUN HOUSE" 3006 DANFORTH AVE., E.
