The Blyth Standard, 1962-02-14, Page 1Midgets Group Champions,
Win Three Straight Games
By winning three straight games dna
ing) the past week, the Myth Lions
Club midge.). hockey team walked away
with the group championship by eliin
hutting Atwcocl and Luckuo\v from
further action,
Because of adverse weather condi.
tions last Monday, February 5, the
boys were unable to make the journey
for what was to have been the first
game hi a homca•honle series, goals
• to count, with Atwood and a sudden -
death game was played in Blyth last
,Vedncsday night,
This game proved to be a nip and
tuck battle all the way with Blyth out
scoring the visitors 4 to 2.
Terry Madill scored 2 goals, with
Don Appleby and Toni Hefron scor-
Ing one each to set the stage for the
group final series between Lucknow
anti Blyth.
The first game hi this series look
place in the local arena last Friday
night auad ended with Myth an tha
lop end of an 'a to 4 score.
Tommy lleffron was the bit; gun for
Blyth, scoritg 3 goals. Bobbie Lawrie
notched two counters, and singletons
were added by Don Appleby, Pletch and
Logan; the latter two being Belgravc's
representatives on the team.
The big game in the series was play-
ed
layed in Lucknow on Monday night and
again Blyth showed their superiority
by coming out with a 4 to 2 victory,
A very good representation of local
fans travelled to Lucknow to witness
the affair,
The game started with Lucknow de.
termined to even the series and Blyth
just as determined to win the title in
two straight. games. Robbie Lawrie
scored the only goal in the first period
E BL
on a ,beautiful solo jaunt down the
ler, cutting around the Lucknow defence
and completely fooling the opposing
goal tender with his shot. Don Apple•
by scored )Myth's only goal of the
second period with a shot from the
point that caught the upper right hand
corner of the goal. Don Scrimgeour and
PIellch cmnpleted the Blyth scoring in
the third ,period during goal -mouth
scranible.s.
It would be entirely impossible to
pick a star on the Blyth team as every
one of the boys literally "played their
heads off" and came up with their
best effort to date,
The major factor in Lucknow's de-
feat on Monday night was their re•
luctance in passing the puck. Their
individual efforts were stopped time
after time by the close checking and
excellent defensive play of the B]yth

AUBURN ASKED TO RETURN TO
"MANCHESTER"
Would you like the name of our
pretty little village of Auburn turned
back to Manchester? That is the clues•
tion faced last week when 1'ostuiaster
.1. Kenneth Scott received a letter from
'the District Director of Postal Service,
J. A. Flaherty, 11r. Scott turned the
letter over to the Village Trustees,
The letter was as follows:--
'Ihe E'oslmasler-
The Canadian Committee on Geogra-
phical Navies' has suggested that the
name of the Auburn Post Office be
changed to Manchester. The reason
given is that Manchester is the official
name recognized by the Ontario De•
partment of Municipal Affairs for the
police village in Huron Electoral Dis•
trict, which is .designated Auburn for
postal purposes, The committee also
points out that Manchester is accept-
ed by the residents as the name of
their community which was establish-
ed in records about 1875,
Ile continued on in his letter asking
the Village Council to consider this
change of name but they wrote back
'asking that no change be made now.
Within the past ten years the Village
Trustees have visited the Department
of liunicipal Affairs, Parliament. I3uild•
Ings, 'Toronto, to look into This business
of changing the none and found That
iI would cost over $500. and have the
bill passed through the Legislature.
No one seems to know how this vii•
lige. was named Manchester but it. is
believed to have been changed when
the Post Office \was located here and
there was another Manchester which
would confuse the mail.
According to the historical Atlas of
Huron County published in 1879, it
stated that the village of Manchester
was situated in the Townships` of West

the Director of Postal Services in the
negative as they felt it would cause

name "Auburn" for nearly 90 years.
Although all deeds to properly and le-
gal papers refer to the Police Village

that the name Auburn will remain for
many years to come as Sweet Auburn,
loveliest village of the Plain, and re-
main as beautiful and noted as the vil-

"Nuclear war and weapons are now
facts of life caul we cannot ignore
them," slated Mr. Murray MacDonald,
civil defence co.ordinator fur Huron
County, when he spoke to the Blyth
Lions Club last Thursday evening in
tlic Memorial Hall. 'I'hc Soviet people
are ccutpelled to gain certain nuclear
knowledge while the people of the
western world ate free to make their
awn decisions,
Mr, MacDonald's job is to advise the
county committee on emergency meas•
tires and from there his recommenda•
tions. -are forwarded to county council
to be dealt with. IIe feels that due
to the present world situation cavil
defence is most necessary.
A considerable amount of planning
can be clone, costing only time and
preNhrations, as present. household
facilities can be adequately utilized
for survival. 'Inhere is no room rn
present day society for one who says,
"what's the use, we'll only perish
anyway." With the propel' planning
a great proportion of the county will
survive 0 nuclear attack. In the event
of attack, local residents will he fore•
cel will: the job of administering 10
casualties and housing homeless pers•
ons from the more densely populated
areas of Ihe province.
lite only chance of a direct flit on
our area would be a misfired missile
or 0 bomber being formal down. Fall-
out and radiation would be the only
serious threat to the survival of local
residents. The present homes in this
area could provide cover for at least
3 for every 1 person now living in
them.
Tile informed residents of the county,
Mi'. MacDonald continued, must be
prepared to plan for those who do not
have the intelligence to recognize the
need for such planning. This will not
only be necessary for nuclear survival,
but will also prove invaluable in the
event of a power failure or other ens-
ergcncies. Every resident in the
Minty should consider the construction
of a speller by utilizing their homes,
regardless of what columnists and
broadcasters suggest.
The province of Ontario is divided
into zones, with Huron being in No. 2
which includes two major targets'
Hamilton and the Niagara area, Our
greatest threat. is from Flint, Detroit,
Windsor, 13ay City and Saginaw, as
the prevailing westerly winds would
carry the fallout in our direction, tak-
ing in an area 50 miles wide and at
least 400 miles long, A 10 megaton
bomb dropped in Flint would extend
1,000 miles in our direction,
The municipalities in the county are
grouped, Blyth being included wilt
\Vingham, Brussels, East Wawanosh,
Morris, Turnberry and }lo\vick. This
arca will have a committee and plan•
ning executive to stipulate interest.
And, as this is not a target arca, we
are allocated to prepare to recelvc
people from the more dangerous areas
The minute an alert Is soutuled we
will be flooded with people. The cons
Inillee will slake arrangements to con
,Incl a survey of accommodation, food,
clothing, blankets and know exactly
how many can be handled. Everymu
should be prepared to go and assist
those in target areas. However, the
first and,ovcr-riding task is to :survive
The nuclear side of the war will last
only three or four days, and from that
point on it will be the survival of the
fittest. Monitoring stations will be he
stalled throughout Canada, possibly one
in the Blyth area, to read the extent
of the fallout, These stations will al
all tinges be in comnwnieation with
zone headquarters. It is most import-
ant that everyone listen to their radio
for instructions.
Warning systems have been installed
in all mtuliciprilities in Canada over 30,.
000 population, Locally, telephone sys•
reins have been set up to handle the sit ----
nation. Headquarters will call Goderich
and they will commence calling each
individual municipality, From that
point on it is up to the municipality to
inform their residents of the attack.
Four exercises are planned to deter-
mine the practicallityl of.'this- system.
This warning will simply tell the people .
to turn on their radios for important
information pertaining to the attack.
Mr. MacDonald also showed two very
informative British films, telling of
nuclear fallout and preparations being
made in that country in cast of attack.
The guest speaker was introduced
by Lion Donald Young who stated,

Real "Cold" Weather
In California
San Franciscans are finding the
weather a brisk conversation
piece; in fact so are most all Cali-
fornians, Normally, one hesitates
to call it winter, so crisp and
benign are these Ca!i6,rnia Jan-
uarys,
San Francisco's "cold" snap
got down to 33 which is within
six degrees of the all-time record
here. That was in December
1932, when the mercury "sank"
away down to 2above zero.
Official records go back 90 years.
This cold snap brought "traces"
of snow bu• nothing like that
"big blizzard" of 1887 which
blanketed the city with 3.8 inch-
es. The ;worst of that snowstorm
was that the wear:ter came off
cold afterward so then the snow
hung on for 'tours and hours. In
fact it wasn't until the afternoon
of the second day that the cable
ear tracks didn't holt lik: t: bog-
gan slides.
Now that the high arctic air
fallout has dissolved and the mer-
cury is coming up out of its glass
shelter, a good many Califorians
are hoping that all this talk about
the weather will fade away, too.
Los Angelenos, in particular fig-
ure folks in Florida must have
had their fun by now and it's
time the Miami Herald let up and
let the Los Angeles Times re-
sume its daily reports on Cali-
fornia's rising population.
These impromptu California
freeze -ups are hard to figure out.

Ming out through the walnut or-
chards, writes Harlan Trott in
the Christian Science Monitor.
Throughout California the
birds' migrations revolve around
a different calendar than, say,
New England's. Normally, Jan-
uary has brought the robins in
full force. This year they must
have taken up their seasonal
work well ahead of schedule. Be-
cause it was rare when a subur-
banite lamented the robins' mid-
December raids on his Pyracan-
tha bushes (the flaming firethorn
that is the all -winter glory of the
Pacific West) that another sub-
urbanite didn't rejoin: "The same
here, we won't have a red berry
left for Christmas either!"
These premature ornithological
depredations were duly reported
in the provincial press. The sub-
urban Palo Alto Times topped
them all the day an excited sub-
scriber telephoned in to report
that a flock had just raided her
premises and now they were all
acting strangely, reeling and fall-
ing down sideways and tripping
over their own wings and other-
wise misbehaving themselves like
denizens of some feathered skid
row,
University experts at Stanford
explained that it was not alto-
gether unusual when a migrating
flock overfed on overripe berries,
thus turning some astonished
suburbanite's back yard into a
squawking Bacchanalia of inebri-
ated robins. The cold snap was
preceded by high gales so that in
Walnut Creek the 10 -acre pond
that laps against our suburban
hontesite was visited by a stray
flock of wild geese of the sleek -
plumed kind known as "white
fronts." Evidently the high
screeching artic air mass was too
much for even these swift sure -
winged fellows, Their arrival in
our haven and only 50 feet from
our breakfast nook bespoke some
remote lofty turbulence -as

Chea, Q Ci
The thought just occurred to
me , , , in moving from one place
to another wouldn't it be awful
if one left one's old neighbour-
hood under a cloud? In that case
one couldn't be sure of a wel-
come so there would be no
pleasure in making a return
visit. I am thankful to say Part-
ner and I were recently shown
every evidence that we need
have no worry on that score.
Last Thursday was a lovely day
so we took a run up to Milton
and visited several of our old
friends and neighbours. In each
case our visit was unannounced
but that didn't seem to make any
difference to our welcome. We
had a wonderful. time and our
friends appeared to be equally
happy. Our only • regret — we
couldn't visit enough places in
one short day as, of course, we
had to say "Hullo" to our grand-
sons too; But we got into trouble
with their mother because the
first thing Ross said was — "Did
you bring us any presents? That
didn't please Joy at all so we
were asked to come empty-hand-
ed next time so the boys wouldn't
get the habit of looking for any-
thing. A wise ruling but a hard
one for grandparents to foIIow.
But, come to think of it, gener-
osity is just a form of selfish-
ness, We like. to give partly be-
cause- of the satisfaction we get
out of seeing the children's
pleasure.
The friends we visited were
some of those whom we knew
could not visit us on account of
age and illness. One dear soul
is 87, resting most of the time
but mentally just as alert as site
was twenty years ago, She has
been a staunch Liberal all her
life so we were kidding her
along saying she would have to
change her views now Mr. Dief-
enbalcer had promised her a ten
dollar raise in her pension,
"Not on your life," she retort-
ed, "just wait until the next
election. Mike Pearson will be
just as generous!" Incidentally
she is personally acquainted with
Mr. Pearson so I expect her al-
legiance to him is unshakeable.
This lady's circumstances also
point up what neighbourliness.
can mean. She is a widow,. i•fvi.ng
alone — except for her cat —
and she has a heart condition
that has to be watched very care-
fully. Her home is still Cheated
by a coal -burning kitchen stove
and a Quebec heater in the liv-
ing -room — too much for a
woman of her age and condition
to look after. So what happens?
Neighbours one side cone in
. every day to stoke the fires and
take out the ashes. Neighbours
the other side are in and. out
every day making sure she is
all right and doing whatever
shopping is necessary. The old
lady is grateful to them all be-
cause they make it possible for
her to fulfill her heart's desire
— to stay in her own home to
the end of her days. In her case
it would seem a crime to even
suggest that she should go to
the Iccal home for aged.
One other case we know was
very different. The elderly lady
had a rented room and was par-
tially crippled. She was abolute-
ly dependent on the kindness of
her friends, And they were I:ind
— but looking after her when
she was ill was ,just too much to
expect. Her doctor advised that
she go to the Manor I-Iome. It
was there we went to see her
one day. Physically she was well
and determined to make the best
of things, She had no complaints
— said the food was good, she
was well looked after and the
nurses and attendants were kind-
ness itself, In spite of her appar-
ent cheerfulness I felt she was
holding something back. From
other sources I found out what
it was. As long as she was able
to get around she was a very
active p 0 180 n, prominent in
Church and W,I. activities, It was
this lost association with old
friends that she missed because
she had very few visitors,
Before we start criticizing let
us consider the reasons, Many of
those in her age group have pass-
ed on. Younger friends with
whom she had been associated
are still active — in the W.A.,
the W.M.S. and the W,I, They
have not forgotten her but they
know she is being well cared
for. What they have failed to
realize is her loneliness; her
longing to see old friends; to be
kept informed and to chat about
the various organizations to
which she used to belong — and
in which she is still interested.
I bring this little matter to
your attention because there
must be many readers who have
elderly relatives or friends in
some home for the aged. Re-
member, their days are limited
so if an occasional visit from you,
an old friend, can brighten these
days, isn't it worthwhile to take
a little time and make a special
effort to bring comfort and cheer
where it is most needed?

who has successfully forgotten

Still Find Holes 1n
West German Wall
In the five months since Wal-
ter Ulbricht's wall sealed off
East Berlin, the flood of 4,000
refugees a day has dwindled to
a trickle, But the trickle is per-
sistent, and Ulbricht's People's
Police have been unable to .stent
it. Some East Germans have cul
the wire; some have climbed it;
some have jumped over it; still
more have rammed through it in
all kinds of vehicles from armor-
ed cranes to commandeered rail-
road trains.
Last Warmth the refugees found
two new exits, 011 a e: Id wet
night in Frohnau, a suburban the
French sector, a startled (Vest
German border guard was con-
fronted by a grimy Earl German
whose teeth chattered as he
spoke. "I've conte from over
there," said the refugee. '''1'l:erc
are more. Is the way clear:"
The West Berlin guard survey-
ed the barbed wire a few yards
away,
"All clear," he said.
For the next. hour West Ger-
man police stood by while 27
more refugees squirmed up from
the end of a 90 -foot tunnel whose
entrance began in the basement
of a small cottage a few yards
away from the barbed wire, in
the Soviet zone. The tunnel,
which had been dug in two weeks
by two families working in
shifts, went down to a depth of
8 feet and was only 2 feet high, -
The oldest refugee was n semi -
paralyzed woman of 71; the
youngest, a child of 8.
While the East Berliners were
digging their way to freedom,
another group of refugees were
holiday -bound aboard the good
ship Fritz Heck:rt, on a cruise of
East Africa. At Casablanca, ten
of the ship's 350 passengers slip-
ped away and sought sanctuary
in the West German Consulate
Next day, Brigitte Tschirner, 27,
a draftswoman, and her fiance,
Hans Busse, 42, a DELA film di-
rector, were amoeg the fourteen
more .who defected in Rabat.
"When the bus. stopped," said
Brigitte, "I said I was going
across the street to buy oranges,
Hans moved slowly away, pre-
tending to take pictures." Soon
the Rabat crowds swallowed
them up.
The Fritz Heckert's. captain
promptly announced that the ship
would return home, But the rest
of the passengers protested, and
the Fritz Ileckert duly weighed
anchor for Tunis. There, three
more passengers escaped.

Planning To Beat
Banknote Forgers
Gangs special: zing in counter-
feit money have become such n
menace throughout Europe that
secret plans to beat them fire be-
ing put Into action,
Interpol—the Inernational Po-
lice Organization—has been so
worried by the situation that it
asked the Bank of England and
the British Treasury for advice,
One of the results is that coun-
tries whose banknotes can be
fairly easily forged will adopt
more complex designs, especially
with waterrnarks;
Currency experts believe that
many of the old banknotes should
be immediately withdrawn from
use and counterfeit -prod n(:'es
issued,
Modern counterfeiters use the
very latest printing and photo-
graphic processes. Some gangs
rob banks and government offi-
ces of the official paper used in
currency -making.
At cleverly -concealed hir'c-outs
tho counterfeit specialists print
not c.nly British, American and
German paper money, but bank-
notes used by a dozen different
countries.

It is hoped, will put many of

13u1 Interpol, though supported
by seventy-six nations and in-
dependent territories, does not
have a single detective on its pay-
roll. Its staff consists largely of
French civil servants.
lnterpol's power lies in the
fact that it can call on the police
forces of its member -nations to
help in searches or inquiries.
And in its files in Paris and at
the Vague, in Holland, the or-

for flogging the boys whose

On such occasions the delin-
quents were not permitted to of-

was castigated,- and returned 'sore

Not until the operation was
complete did he learn that, in-
stead of the flogging list, he had
picked up the slip on which were
the names of the boys about to
be confirmed.

Mail Order Guns
Under U.S. Scrutiny
Errly in December of last year,
a young boy in Washington, D.C.,
..'.v,:d p'?ckarre by flailway
Express, opened it, and excited-
ly called a young friend to come
over to see his new purchase.
1t was e. "mail-order gun."
In the process of examining
it to find out how it worked the
young visitor was fatally shot.
The bay who received this gun
did not have parental approval
for its purchase, They did not
know he had it. lie hrd no legal
right, as a juvenile, to possess it
anyway.
Incidents such as this have
touched off a searching congres-
sional inquiry—still in process—
into this multibillion -dollar busi-
ness of "mail-order guns" which
has sprung up within the past`
few years.
Investigators for the Senate
Subcommittee on Juvenile De-
linquency, under Sen. Thomas J.
Dodcl (D) of Connecticut, report
that most of these guns are of
foreign manufacture,
They come from Italy or West
Germany, Many are as small as
toys. They sell from $6 up, but
are as deadly as any six-shooter.
They may be ordered by mail
with no declaration as to the age
of the purchaser. And shipment
by Railway Express avoids the
stricter requirements of the post-
al laws: '
The subcommittee has reason
to believe many of these guns
are finding their way into the
hands of juvenile gangs and into
the possession of the mentally
irresponsible.
The New York police told in-
vestigators of one company
charged with converting blank
guns into '22's and selling them
to children. This led, in one case,
to a tragedy similar to the one
in Washington.
The Senate subcommittee has
a veritable arsenal of exhibits,
from the tiny vestpocket Italian
import to larger guns, obviously
rebuilt Army castoffs.
In fact, it has been found that
many of the mark -clown, bar-
gain, mail-order guns are of
Army origin, having been sold as
scrap and reconditioned for sale
by cutting down the barrel and
putting on a new handle, writes
Josephine Ripley in the Christ-
ian Science Monitor.

Subcommittee investigators
now are in the proce=s of going
throu:'h thousands of Railway
Exprc receipts to find out how
many of these guns have gone
to juveniles.
In the course of investigation
they have various dodges by
which those who ship these guns
are avoiding the firearms tax.
A committee investigator show-
ed this correspondent several
types of revolvers with a phony
barrel which ce.n be unscrewed
and a real barrel inserted. In
some cases the authentic barrel
comes in the same box; in other
cases it may be obtained separ-
ately,
Guns with a nonusable bar-
rel are n:;t taxed as firearms.
Hence, the shipment of the good
barrel ins a separate part.
But, as the investigator pointed
out, the gun could be used even
without the real barrel simply
by removing the phony one and
firing the bullet through the stub
of the gun.
The biggest mail-order gun
business is done in California and
New fork. Both of these states
have tight laws regulating the
sale of firearms within their
own borders, but since the mail-
order house deals in interstate
commerce, it is not hampered by
state restrictions,
Such business can be started
on a small capital of a few thous-
and dollars and run up to a mil-
lion dollars in a short time.
Many "shady characters" are
reported to be engaged in 'this
profitable enterprise. One -is said
to have been a previous peddler
of pornography.
These guns come to the atten-
tion of juveniles through adver-
tisement in sports magazines —
such as Guns, True, and Male—
or the so-called "girlie" type pub-
lication.
United States gun manufactur-
ers have told Senate investigators
that it would cost more than $40
here to produce the Italian gun
which sells here for around $12
and which, they estimate, costs
less than a dollar to manufacture
there.
The subcommittee has (coaly
for exhibition in its firearms dis-
play a pencil - type gun, very
much like a ball-point pen With
a pocket clip, which sells for $2.
It was manufactured as a tear -
gas gun, but can take a small .22
shell which "will go though a
Los Angeles telephone direc-
tory!"

There were three fields of opposi-
tion -•-The grain handlers, grain truck-
ers, and the large feeders of cattle
and hogs,
The grain handler's objected obviously
because an organization of producer.;
would create at least some pressure
to higher prices. if nothing else this
would mean that these dealers in grain
would require more capital. There
would also be the possibility that this
increased cost could not be passed 00
because of the threat of imports, In

They could influence producers around
Them.
The tuckers apparently had built
up a good business in buying corn in
the corn belt and trucking it into live-
stock feeding areas outside the corn
area. The marketing plan would have
interfered with their business consid-
erably and since many of these were
also producers they did have a vote
and close contact and strong influence
on the producers they dealt with.
The livestock feeders were also pro-
ducers in the vast majority of cases.
Many of these, 1 have been told, made
a practice of buying large quantities
of corn at harvest time at low prices
while they stored their Own crop some
of which they were able to sell at much
higher prices later. however they pur-
chased so much more corn than They

Processing Plants Unanimously
Supported At Federation Meeting
The principle of farmer•owncd co-op•
erative processing plants received un-
animous approval by members of the
Ontario Federation of Agriculture at
a recent meeting in Toronto. Several
co-operative processing enterprises in
meat, fowl and milk are members of
the federation either as individuals or
through the United Co-operatives of
Ontario and vegetable growers are cur-
rently considering entering the proces-
sing field through a co-operative.
'Phis resolution grew out of a dis-
cussion of Farmers' Allied Meat Enter.
prises Cooperative which is developing
a meat processing operation. Members
were divided concerning giving out-
right endorsation to FAME or any in
dividual member organization but were
completely in favour of all efforts by
tanners to enter the processing field

Ray l.,ougheed and Andrew (' nuinink ,

while Mr. Cumming is a director of

the Co-operative section of the OVA.
A comprehensive report on the op-
eration of the Ontario Stock Yards
was given by general manager, Fred
M. Campbell, While the terminal mar.
ket at Toronto is the only such stock-
yards in North America owned by a
government, its purpose is the same
—to establish a neutral ground where
buyers and sellers of livestock can
do buLsiness, "Lt is a place where pro.
ducers are able to convert livestock
into currency at the highest value
established at that particular lime,"
said Mr, Campbell. Ile added, no pro -
(Meer had ever sold cattle on the yard
without being paid for therm, The
Stock Yards Board representing live-
stock producers is responsible for If.
tensing all agents operating at the
market commission firms, order buyers
and dealers.
Mr, C1amnpbell stressed the value of
a strong competitive market at Toronto
to. producers all over Ontario and, in-
deed, Canada. Auction selling at the.
yards had evened out supplies of live-
stock tnroilgh the week and thus in•
creased the bargaining strength of the
producer and his representatives, Over
$100 million dollars worth of livestock
lore sold at the yards annually at a
cost to the producer of about 1 to 1 and
one-quarter percent of sales.
The Ontario Stock Yards have ex•
perimented with a system of direct,
instantaneous communication of offer-
ings and sales at other major livestock
markets in Canada as an additional ser.
vice. Special feeder sales on weekends
are being encouraged so producers may
have a greater choice in buying their
requirements, Mr. Campbell also re'
ported that increasing lumbers of cat,
tle were going hack to the country for
more finishing thus raising the over-
all quality of the slaughter cattle avail-
able.
The OF'A Alcmbers passed resolu'
lions requesting further exemptions
from the provincial sales tax for equip -
111011 essential to farmers; supporting;
efforts to require amber, flashing lights
to be shown on all farm equipment on
highways al. night; requesting govern
nmetlt agencies to establish 1t program
for the control of mastitis; asking that
the Food and Drug Act be strengthened
to prevent the sale of unfit meat; for
compensation for livestock owners
against losses from compulsory test-
ing and - vaccination and favouring n
consumer subsidy on huller.

St. John History Centuries

History is a funny and a fascinating
thing. And as this is "St. John Month"
in Ontario we have done some. brows-
ing in the history of tie Order and have
found facts that read like fiction. For
instance, to this day the best Cypriot
win still bears the name of "Com -
Mandate" given to it by Hie Kni.glhts
of
Malta hr the Fifteenth Century.
And at the time of the first Elizabeth
some of the Priory buildings were tak-
en over and occupied by the Master
of Reve>s of the Court, 1l is very
probable that the walls of the Gate
Ilotlse, now known as St. John's Gate
and headquarters of the Order echoed
with the words and arguments, the
songs and poems of Bon Johnson, Mar•
lovve mull even Shakespeare himself,
Much more could be told because
the Order of 81. John haus a histol'
that goes back to the Crusades, and
allhought the Knights of the Older were

The Blyth Agricultural Society held
their annual meeting in the Orange
Ifall Friday afternoon, February 901.
President, Albert I3acon, chaired the
meeting, and in his brief address, ex-
pressed his appreciation for the co.
operation he had received during the
year which had its ups and downs.
The fair attendance was down con-
siderably, but the fine weather and
the threshing season following so quick-
ly on a late harvest was a large co't.
tributing factor.
Mr. Don Grieve, assistant Agricul-
tural Representative, extended an in-
vitation for a delegate to attend Ile

ton Nebruary 19111. I3oyd Taylor veils

alternate.
While the financial statement. stilt
showed a deficit, it had been redo - ---,.
considerably• during the year.
Mr. James Mair, Brussels, provincial
vice-president, brought greetings, and
in his remarks stated, "Too much cm-
phasis is placed by societies to have
Nigger fairs rather, than having better
fairs." "No one. should apologize for
being a small fair, but should be al-
ways looking for something new, and
so doing, keep up ' with the times."
"Exhibits should be placed so that
those attending the fair can readily
see them, Large publicity cards shou:d
be used to indicate the winners aflrr
judging has been completed."
"The small fair must remember that
today they have to compete with tl,e
larger fairs, however, you do not
need to become bigger to become bet -
ler. Serving the community should
he the main objective of the local fair."
Simon l[all.ahan, leader of 4.1I Dairy
Calf Club, reported that 1'l members
had competed i11 this year's; COlnpe.

ensilage corn, 12 completed the coin -
petition. In shield oats, eleven com-
peted; which in each case was 100
percent.
In reporting for the sheep class,
Walter Scott stated, "There had never
been a better showing of sheep, brat
more and better pens are needed." .
Mr. Bacon said he would like to
see more competition in hogs.
Exhibits in all livesock classes
were up considerably.
Mrs. Wellington Good stated, tilu
showing of roots, vegetables and flows
el's was larger and of better quality.
Mrs. George Watt, m reporting for

exhibits were comparable ito other

In reporting for domestic science,
Mrs. L. M. Scrimgeour sated exhibits
up but would like some .special prizes
open to 'more competition.
Mr. Grieve stressed junior aotivitica
which, he said, is a great asset to
any fair. Also these junior members
will be the officials of tomorrow,

"Marketing by Teletype.`'
Farmers compain that there is too
great a variation in the prices on thus
same day, but the majority seem well
satisfied. We believe the average price
in Ontario has increased since the
teletype system has been used. Form-
erly, the packers got together and
fixed the price. We do not think cat-
tle would sell as well by teletype, as
there is such a variety in size, quality,
finish, weight and grades, Hogs are
more teniform. We think it would not
be advisable to have a national mar!;•
cling system using teletype because)
of the difference in time and climate
conditions, transportation expoisey
and costs o[ feed and care.

Amazing Courage
Of Lucy Fray
It was Lucy Fray'; tenth b:'hy.
She had been back hinge wits it
only a week when she tear. a d
that she was going to die
The one thing she didn't k.e,ew
just then was when — whr;act
It would be a mater of weeks,
months or maybe years.
She did not tell her husl ;;nils
Ivan, right away He was bed-
ridden and she wanted to he
absolutely sure before she breike
the news to him.
Lucy was thirty-four ye„rs
old. She and Ivan eked out an
existence on their small farm
a mile or two from Ottunna,
Iowa. There was no luxury, but
it was home to them and their
ten children.
When Ivan was able to, he
woked in the field. In the win-
ter months, he found a jot in
town as a labourer, but lately nis
arthritis had been so bad i.1at
he had been more bedrinaen
than up and about,
As the days went by, Lecy's
pain grew worse. She was eva n-
tually forced to drive into town
to see a specialist and the elder-
ly family doctor who had at-
tended them ever since they
came to live there.
When the specialist had com-
pleted his examination, he shook
his head.
"There is nothing you can do
for me, then?" she asked quietly.
"There is nothing that any
human being can do for you,
Mrs. Fray."
She looked steadily at him
with great saucer -like grey eyes
as she asked: "How long have I
got, doctor?"
"Do you honestly want me to
express an opinion, Mrs. Fray?"
the specialist queried.
"I do. I have a family. I must
make arrangements before 1
die."
"You have a platter of months,
six months, maybe nine months,
at the very, very best, about ten
months."
Lucy Fray murmured a simple
thank y o u. There was neither
tremor nor emotion in her voice
or face. She returned home,
smiling and bright as always.
No one saw that inwardly she
was disturbed, that sentence of
death had been pronounced on
her.
She bathed her infant son Ste-
phen
te-
phen and scraped together
enough food to feed the family.
She then told her husband Qhe
was going to visit her local par-
son.
"I have one or two things to
discuss with him," Lucy said,
and Ivan did not question her.
He was in bed racked with pain.
In the quiet of the minister's
parlour Lucy addressed the Rev-
erend Samuel Pike.
"I have been thinking about
my children. I was bathing Ste-
phen this evening and thinking
that I do not want them to go
to an orphanage when beside me
I felt a wonderful presence,
something strong and overpow-
ering like an invisible spirit.
"It told me that there must be
many good people in Iowa who
would provide homes for my
children and love them as I love
them and help them to grow up
to be good men and women.
"I have to find these people
and see that my children are set-
tled happily before I go."
When she returned home she
told Ivan that she was to die
before the summer was halfway
through in that year of 1954. She
outlined her plan and he agreed
as he always did with anything
that Lucy decided.
Next morning Lucy got her
children together and told them
they were all going to move to
new homes.
"Soon I will not be able to
take care of you any more be-
cause I shall be going to heaven.
Before I go I am going to find
each of you a new mummy who
will be as kind and good to you
as I have been, and a new fa-
ther who will love you as your
own father loves you."
The local newspaper picked
up the story of the dying mother
who was seeking loving homes

quelitic(Uan. She demanded of
anyone who waning to adopt a
child at hers.
Those couples of Whom Lucy
ap;n'oved lvere allowed to take
one of the children with them
for ten days• At the end of this
period the child had to be te-
turnc'd so that Luey could ques-
tion it privately to find out if
he or she would like to live with
the people and if they were
!ropy,
The vctmgcst, Stephen, was
the fiat to leave the house, then
thrce-year-old Warren went.
Whcn Linda, two years, had
gone, the other children began
to get frightened. At first it nad
seemed like a game, but now
they suddenly realized that it
was deadly earnest,
The oldest, Joanne, a n d the
third oldest, Pauline, asked their
mother to tell them the truth.
"I am going to die and nothing
can help me," Lucy said calmly.
"I do not want to see you
children in an orphanage. I want
to see you in happy homes with
people who will love you, people
who will allow your brothers
and sisters to come and see you
and allow you to go and see
then •so that you will always be
a family — my family."
The children understood. More
and more of them left. Most
went to neighbour's living not
very far away.
By April, 1954, all but three
had gone. These were Joyce,
Frank and Virginia,
Then Joyce and Virginia went.
Little Frank alone was still with
her in May when Lucy then
knew that her time was short.
Little Frank was six years old
and suffered from attacks of
epilepsy. To Lucy it seemed that
nothing could be done except
to put little Frank in an insti-
tution. For she had been fair all
the way through. T h e couples
who took the children were told
of any failings they had, and
Lucy had, of course, told them/
that little Frank, a tousled hair=
ed lovable little fellow, suffer-
ed from epileptic seizures.
"No one will accept Frank,"
Lucy told the Reverend Pike,
"and yet he is the most lovable
of all any ten children and the
one who needs love more than
any of the others."
Then, a few days later, the
couple who had adopted Warren
brought him to see his mother.
They were sitting on the porch
while Warren was with his mo-
ther, when little Frank cane
toddling out and stood by them.
They spoke to him.
Little Frank s a i d: "No o n e
wants me so I will go to a home
where they look after little kids
no one wants." Then he toddled
off to play with a clay horse
while the couple watched.
That evening neither the man
nor his wife ate anything, "We
just sat and stared at our food,
my wife and I. We could not
eat, we did not have the heart
to cat," the man told the Rever-
end Pike later.
"Suddenly my wife said to
me: 'He is such a lovely little
boy, it is a shame that he, too,
cannot have a new mummy and
daddy like his brothers and sis-
ters.'
"I looked at my wife and I
saw her eyes . brimming with
tears. Suddenly I rose and said:
'Come on, little Frank is going
to come home with us,'"
Lucy smiled up from her bed
when the couple returned. later
that evening. Gently they took
the sleeping boy from his bed
and when he awoke the next
morning he was in the bedroom
where his brother was sleeping,
On the morning of June 14th,
Lucy knew her life was ebbing
fast. Her husband sent a message
to the Reverend Pike and later
in the day the children began
to arrive until they were all
around her bedside.
"I want to say goodbye to
you," Lucy said calmly. "It is
not goodbye for ever, because I
know 1 shall see each of you
again. You have found parents
who will be good and kind.
"13e to them good sons and
daughters. Goodbye now and
God bless you."
She kissed each of the children
on the cheek' and looked after
them as they filed out and then
she turned her head away and
one solitary tear rolled on to the
pillow.
When the nurse tiptoed into
the room a few seconds later
Lucy Fray had gone. But there
was a deep contentment on her
face and a smile on her lips.

Eighteen state highway petrol -

ing You—From 1hc:• Sky" the
program is dubbed, and it is
proving effective,
Just how effective, a NEWS -
WEEK reporter learned last
month in a demonstration staged
by pilot -patrolman ,Mimes Sim-
mons, a 6 -foot -2 maim r in the Air
Force Reserve.
After a pre -dawn, below freez-
ing take -off from Sacramento
Municipal Airport, S i m 01 o n
picked up the concrete ribbon of
Hwy. 99 that stretched arrow -
straight through the flatlands be-
low, Plainly risible were nem-
erals on the highway 5,280 feet
apart. If a vehicle moved from
one mile -marker to another in
60 seconds, Simmons paid hint no
heed. The driver would be 3
miles an hour under California's
maximum speed limit of 65 mph.
As the blazing sun inched up-
ward over the 2 -mile crest of the
Sierra Nevada, Simmons was ate
tracled by a black coupe, its
windshield completely frosted
with ice except for a small
"peckhole." Ile clocked it. The
time measured between markers
was 45 seconds—or 80 miles an
hour• To keep pace, Simmons
advanced the throttle to full
opening position, shallow dived
to 200 feet. Using his hand mike,
he celled: "Aircraft No. 2, calling
Unit Six."
"Unit Six to Aircraft No, 2. Go
ahead," came back the reply.
"A black coupe with wind-
shield and rear windows frosted
is going flat out south near Elk
Grove. Pick him up and investi-
gate."
"Roger, Aircraft Two. Unit Six
over, out," was the reply.
Simmons pushed his cub to 500
feet and "hung on the tail" of
the speeding car. Ahead of the
car was a black -and -white patrol
car parked on the shoulder of the
concrete. On its top was a white
square with a black "6". As the
speeding, unsuspecting motorist
rushed by, the highway patrol
"dug out" and, within a mile,
flagged down the car.
Minutes later, Simmons noted
a car stopped by the roadside, a
woman standing alongside. I -Ie
"dragged" the vehicle so low that
two children could be seen • in
the back seat. Over his loud-
speaker came the words: "This is
the California Highway Patrol,
May I assist you?"
The woman looked up, startled
by the voice of Big Brother, She
waved,
"If you are out of gas, raise
your right hand," Simmons or-
(tered, She raised her right hand,
"I will send assistance. Wait in
the car,"
Monitoring his police band,
Simmons learned of an accident
15 miles south, received the ins
formation that an ambulance was
on the way, He flew full throttle
to the scene, climbed to 750 feet
and surveyed the terrain and
road. Rapidly stalled traffic 'vas
jamming the highway and would
force the ambulance to thread its
way slowly to 1110 500110. t3y
radio, Simmons directed the (111v-
er through side roads—thuf
bringing aid more quickly to the
Crash victim.
"That's the way it goes," he
said. "One of the other boys help-
ed box in a bank robber last
week. Ile just sat up there above
the getaway car and directed the
establishment of roadblocks, We
had him in 35 minutes,
"If I wasn't flying, I'd be driv•
ing a patrol car and let one tell
you, it's a lot safer up dere than
chasing them on the J.F000 ."
Ironically, the day after Sim-
mons matte this observation, 23.

head-on collission some 900 fee:

1 -Horse Open Sleigh
Meant Work, Not Fun
After another Christmas season
in which the non -Christmas mu-
sic of "Jingle Bells" was foisted
upon us generally as a fine old
carol, It Is philosophically pleas-
ant to wonder whet Jingle Bells
can possibly mean to a jingleless
population, anyway. Why does
Jingle Bells appeal to us in this
horseless era of jingling ignor-
ance?
For something that was never
any fun to begin with, the sleigh -
ride has 0 strange hold on the
people. It is thoroughly improb-
able that dashing though the
snow in a one-horse open sleigh
would ever hecclnle traditionally
popular, even vicariously, and it
Is certainly absurd to find a song
about it hoist high into• the cate-
gory of holiday music. Yet, there
It is, and it is so.
Bells, as attached to the winter
harnesses of horses, were suppos-
ed to be 0 warning device.
Wheels on wagons clattered and
bumped, and hoofs of horses
pounded the hard highway. But
when snow fell these he 1..4y
sounds were muted, and bells had
to be attached to warn folks of
your coming, If this is true, tin
we have the intellectual right 11
assume that a foghorn or the
gong on a trolley car had the
same relative chance of becoming
Christmas music. Indeed, to any-
body who ever endured the true
pleasures of sleighing the odds
would be about the same.
I would like to take all mem-
bers of the musicians' union for a
nice old -tinge tide in a set -aver
pung, o'er the fields we'd go,
laughing all the way, The set -
over pung was a realistic answer
to something the song -pluggers
wouldn't know about -it permit-
ted you to pass with some sem-
blance of ease over roads that
were owned by teams.
Sleigh -riding was incidental,
for the business of the country-
side was conducted on double
runners and double - hitched
horses. Never, by any stretch of
the fancy, did a sleigh tide over
a country road entail frivolity
with dash, zip, verve and hooraw,
If you daringly touched the horse
'up, throwing caution to the
winds, You would round a bend
and meet a logging rig loaded
high with four to five thousand
feet and a driver on top who
couldn't care less. The sleigh
turned out, and at high speed or
low speed it usually tipped over,
Then the bells on Bob -tail rang,
for Bob -tail usually took a fright
and ran away,
The set -over pung had its
whiffletree and clevis arranged
so the horse could walk in one
of the team paths, but the sleigh
•would track with the logging
ruts. It was cleverly pondered
and built, but the advantage it
had for straight going was a dis-
advantage when you tried to turn
out, The horse made out fine,
but the runners of the sleigh now
responded on the bias, and with
your horse sensibly trying to get
out of the tray of two approach -
Upsidedown to Prevent Peeking
mg chunks vveil forward in their
collars, you might have all the
horsemanship in the world and
still find yourself headfirst In a
snot''bank.
Whether to gelout on the high
side or the low side was moot -
the high -siders leaped farther,
but low -siders had everybody
else fall on them. On any sleigh
ride along a well -used road,
where logs, cordwood, hay and
ice were being handled by a busy
community, a pung was upside
clown as often ns not, and spirits
were never quite so bright as the
song says.
Possibly a "pung" need:, defin-
ing. It was a "box sleigh," orig-
inally being 0 box 011 runners.
Some say the word derives,
somehow, from ,he Indian tobog-
gan, It was lower slung than a
sleigh, and the runners were of-
ten wider in the iron. 1t was pre-
ferred by farmers and had a
utilitarian aspect -although that
word didn't occur then. When it
tipped over you didn't have so
far to fall, and it was cheaper to
repair if it got smashed up. Ev-
erybody had a pung, but the
sleigh had a high check -rein con-
notation,
And nobody, really, ever look-
ed forward to a pang ride, The
horse, least of all. Ile was comfy
ICY TREAT - Curtis Schuh,
2, goes to work on oversize
icicle
in his stable, and he always hated
bells, because they meant work.
When he was backed out of the
stall and into the shafters, a sad-
ness settled upon him and the
mood was communicated.
There were really only two
routine jobs for him in the win
ter -the trip to town with butter
and eggs, to fetch the staples, and
the Sunday sortie to services,
This latter was a devotional or-
deal few peoples have ever
developed in their dogmas. But
while humans could ride cold to
church, eggs had to be kept warm
with blankets and a lantern lit,
And while humans could get
dumped out, eggs had . to ride .
straight, and the paradox of this
was that little heavy teaming
was clone on Sundays, but market
clay was busy.
On market day, after a wary
drive to town, with the eggs
safely swapped off, we'd ap-
prcach the ride home. 'rhe best
way was to yeil giddap al the
horse so it frightened hint into
a wild dash for his own dooi'yard,
and then we'd hide' down under
the blankets with the lantern and
hope for the best, The sweetest
sound the bells made was the
silence when they stopped jingl-
ing, and the hcrse stood by the
kitchen door, We could blow out
the lantern, then, and go in the
house and thaw out. -By John
Gould in the Christian Science •
Monitor.

Guaranteed price supports and
mounting stocks of butter, wheat
and other farms roc:acts are a
big 1:rob,enl hei a in Cana la, But
the problem is a coni a"atively
small one as compared to what
faces the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, as will he seen from
the follow'ng article.
• • •
The White House is reported
deeply concerned over the cost of
the farm price support program,
The cost is not being reduced; it
is larger than ever.
The government has paid out
some $900,000,000 more in farm
subsidy payments this year than
last, In other words, the Free-
man prcgrant to date is more
costly than the Benson program.
Not that Secretary Freeman
got what he wanted in the way of
a tarns program. Caneress did
not give it to him -with the
•exception of a new deal on feed
grains. Most of the farm subsidy
increase, however, is due to that
program,
Secretary Freeman admits that
the new program accounts for
$768.000,000 -of the farm subsidy
increase, but claims the program
has actually saved the taxpayers
at least $500,000,000.
► a tl
Even so, the Bud'tct Bureau
has estimated that all federal
subsidies for farmers in the cur-
rent fiscal year, ending June 30,
1962, will Mal a fat $4,700,-
000,000.
The fact is. the farm prig sup-
port program is be,:,(,ling ever
more costly despite valiant ef-
forts by Secretarie, cf Agricul-
ture to' trim it down.
Secretary 'P'reeman is paying
• higher price supports for the
crops which are raised under the
land -retirement agreement, and
he is offering more foto the land
retired, In return, however, he
requires that this be land on
which these crops have been
grown previously,- and enot just
any • land, as under the old soil
bank program,
• •
Taking all these things into
consideration, Secretary Freeman
figures, on paper, that the gov-
ernment would have had to pay
out some $500,000,000 more in
price - supporting crops • which
would have been grown on this
land if it had been planted,
New, in addition to toed grains,
Secretary Freeman is laking on
wheat, under a similar program,
In other words he is paying farm-
ers to take wheat land out of
production In return for higher
price supports on wheat.
• W t,
Under the feed grain, program,
support price for corn was upped
from $1,06 to $1.20 a bushel.
Barley went from 77 cents a
bushel to 93 cents, The support
price for rye went from 90 cents
a bushel to $1.02, Oats went from
50 cents a bushel to 02; and grain
sorghums from $1,50 per hun-
dred -weight to $1 93,
in return corn acreage was
reduced from 71,443,000 acres to
58,275,000, Grain sorghum acre-
age came down from 15,301,000
acres to 10,901.000,
1SS1II'. 9 - 1962
The new wheat program is ex-
pected to bring about a 10 per
cent acreage cut, All these are
the problem grains -the grains
which have been grown in tre-
mendous surpluses because of
guaranteed price supports,
• • •
But it is obvious from results
so far that while Secretary Free-
man is achieving some success in
reducing the amount of land
planted to the problem crops, it
is costing money to do it, writes
Josephine Ripley in the Christian
Science Monitor,
Secretary Freeman may argue
that if Congress had gone along
with him on his over-all pro-
gram, with its more stringent
production curbs, he could have
brought the problem under con-
1ro1,
Another costly price support
operation is that under which
farm exports are subsidized, This
comes about when the govern-
ment, which has taken over
surplus grains and other products
at the high domestic support
prices, offers them for sale on
the world market at the lower
world price,
The write-off on this operation
came to $311,100,000 in 1960, and
$305,100,000 in 1961. Much the
same thing happens under the
International Wheat Agreement,
This generally entails a govern-
ment subsidy on wheat prices of
over $70,000,000 a year.
1 • .
Since coming into office Secre-
tary Freeman has taken a look
at the books and instituted a new
system of figuring the value of
surpluses in stock. The last .re-
port, under the old system on
May 31, 1961, showed $8,598,013,-
000 tied up in surpluses in stor-
age and under loan.
Of this $1,,450,787,000 was out-
stanciing in loans, with the inven-
tory valued at $7,147,226,000, The
new system storage and handling
costs are written off separately,
as a separate loss item.
Thus, as of September the
value of the inventory (that is,
the stock of surpluses on hand)
was only $5,496,812,000, It not
only looks better on the books,
but Secretary Freeman feels it a
more accurate system of account-
ing, (The storage hill for fiscal
1961 came to $462,000,000.)
But no natter how you figure
it, the total spent for price -sup-
porting farm commodities, and
resulting surpluses, seems exor-
bitant, White House economists,
riding herd on the budget, aro
said to be disturbed over these
billions being poured into the
farm program and hopeful that
somehow the figure 000 be pared
down.
Mushrooms Need
a "White Thumb"
One business you won't find
on every corner is that of rais-
ing mushrooms for the whole-
sale market. It is true that
Americans have eaten them for
many generations, but originally
they ate wild nntshrooms gather-
ed in the fields, Mushroom cul-
ture started in this country about
1900, The growth has been slow.
The ancient Greeks, Egyptians,
and Romans knew mushrooms
and regarded them as a delicacy,
The Romans called them "food
for the gods," But it was not un-
til around 1700 that they were
produced in any quantity in Eu-
rope. Louis XIV at this time en-
couraged their growing. The
French, since then, have been
foremost in producing them, us-
ing caves and quarries around
Paris in which to cultivate them,
Most American mushroom
farmers construct special build-
ings designed to produce great
quantities and providing the ex-
act growing conditions mush-
rooms demand,
They are harvested, placed in
baskets, and trucked to the pack-
ing plant. Girls in the plant
examine them for imperfections;
separate according to size; hox;
weigh and seal the container.
They then are placed on the
shelves of the retail markets,
The grower of mushrooms
needs a "white thumb" instead
of a green one, The mushroom
does not behave like green plants
which absorb carbon dioxide and
release waste oxygen, They in-
stead "breathe" oxygen and ex-
hale carbon dioxide, They have
no chlorophyll. This lack of
green coloring matter makes
them white.
The growing houses are dark.
The mushroom farmer wears a
miner's lamp, That is the only
light the mushroom has,
Growers scoff at the phrase
"grew like a mushroom, over-
night." Months of preparation
and cultivation are required be-
fore picket's can take off the first
crop.
Always hold your head up, but
be careful to keep your nose on a
friendly level,

Various surveys indicate that
more than half the adults have
broken the seventh command-
ment, Many are doing it in their
teens, A woman staying in a
hotel wrote to the editor of i.he
local newspaper after last New
Year's Eve. She was surprised
that so many of the guests com-
ing to a party there, were in their
early teens, When she and her
husband returned to the hotel
after midnight site was shocked
at the obscene language. A girl
from one of the bedrooms was
screaming, calling, ''Mother, ano-
ther." A boy started down the
cor'r'idor shouting, "I'm a nudist"
Someone Balled• to him to conte

Every city of considerable size
has its houses of prostitution and
its hotels with the call girl rack-
et. The Bible says, "Marriage is
honourable in all, and the bed
undefiled: b u t. whoremongers
and adulterers God will judge."
Hebrews 13:4. Homosexualism is
becoming more prevalent.
Jesus said, "Whosoever looketh
on a ' woman to lust after her
hath committed adultery with
her already in his heart." Matt,
5:28, Sin begins in the mind.
Salacious literature, sexy movies
and immodest deportment, all
help to prepare the way for the
outward sin.
Nature judges those who break
God's law, Some have nervous
breakdowns, some incur vener-
eal disease and all miss out on
the pure clean happiness that
God designed for His creatures,
The prophets reproved Israel
for adultery when they forsook
God and worshipped idols. This
was spiritual adultery. When
people who have given them-
selves to the Lord and may be
said to be married to Him, turn
from His love to the pursuit of
things and pleasures, they are
spiritual adulterers. All adultery
is sin, The marriage vow is
sacred: To break it is to sin.
A small-town telephone oper-
ator answering a call with the

then, since the operator still fail-
