an oversize waterproof jacket gave

Wrapped turban-style around the

In fact, it was difficult to dis-
tinguish the women from the men
-- and the way they handled their
guns would certainly not give them
sway..
This is one sport where there
aren't any "ladies rules," The wo-
men use the same guns, shoot on
the same squads under the same
conditions as the men — and are
not favored by any handicaps.
Most women who shoot skeet took
np the sport in "self-defenee," be-
ing married to ardent marksmen.
Rather than stay at home while
husbands participated in shooting
*meets, they gave it a try them-
selves. Now they are every bit as
keen as the men and compete with
them successfully, In Canada, about
40 per cent of the membership in,
skeet clubs is feminine.
Once bitten by, the skeet bug, even
the most petite of these enthusiasts
happily totes a seven or eight pound
shotgun. Absorbing the "kick" from
a .12 gauge shell perhatis 100 times
in an afternoon requires certain
physical fitness!
But when they discard their shoot-
ing clothes and don party dresses,
Canada's shooting women look for
all the world as if they would run
in terror from a cap gun.

Humane Slaughter
Senator Humphrey will hold
hearings this week on a bill to
require humane methods of
slaughtering meat animals in
American packing houses. Al-
though ,such methods are en-
forced by law in most Euro-
pean countries, they are not
mandatory in the United States
and, indeed, are rarely observ-
ed here. Cattle, sheep, calves
and hogs are commonly killed
here by techniques which subject
them to senseless terror and
suffering: they are dragged aloft
and suspended by a chain
fastened around one hind leg;
then their throats are cut and
they are left 'to bleed to death.
It is entirely practicable to ren-
der the animals unconscious be-
fore slaughter, 'as Senator Hum-
phrey's bill would require, by
anesthetizinet thera with carbon
dioxide or by stunning them
with electric tongs or a captive
bolt pistol.
Most of the major meat pack-
ers oppose this legislation, and
for some strange reason they
have found support for their
opposition in the Department of
Agriculture. The Department
says it "has always favored and
worked for humane methods in
all aspects of handling of ani-
mals" but that in this situation
it "is guided by a sincere belief
that mandatory „Federal legis-
lation would not be the best
way to assure continued pro-
gress in the solution of this pro-
blem." This may be sincere but
It is also unrealistic. In the Ertl
place, voluntary cooperation,
althought sought for many
years, has not 'produced com-
pliance with decent standards.
In the second place, the depart-
ment has long used legislation
to assure humane treatment of
animals; for example, it en-
forces an effective law respect-
ing the treatment of animals in
transit to slaughterhouses. In
the third place, mandatory re-
' gulations afford the Most equi-
table and even-handed way to
obtain general observance of
humane slaughter methods.

Wings in Flight
From nature is to be gained
more knowledge than from any
school or college. In fact, most
of the knowledge in books is
but what mas has learned from
a careful study of nature. Sci-
ence has gone back a hundred
million years. . .
We had only of late years seen
the earth, upon which we walk
and work, from the same height
that birds have known it for
centuries. Our gliding planes of
today are but the pictured evi-
dence of flight long; long, ago
before man ever trod this earth!
Wonder of wonders is the
wing of every bird. When out-
spread, soaring high above the
earth, What is there more fas-
cinating to watch? An eagle,
hawk, sea gull, pigeon, heron,
crane, starling?-and that exqui-
site creature the humming bird

Just as much care shonld be taken
When buying 'clothes as in buying ,
a house, according to Mary Hum-
, phries, chairman of the textile com-
mittee, Canadian Consumers. -
No one would buy a house with-
out finding out the details of ,the
materials which , went into buildihg
it. We should be just as careful
about knowing the kind of fabrics
from which our clothes are mad;
said Mrs. Humphries.
In the days when there were only
the natural fibres — flak, cotton,
silk and wool it was easy to
recogniie the 'fabric and 'know ap-
' proximately how it would, behave.
But-in this day of nian-made fibres
no housewife is expert enough to
tell what fibre = or blend' of fibres
— makes up a fabric, and how .it
will' perform in wear and cleaning.
- Mrs. Humphries,-claims that the
.solution for this problem lies in ad-
equate labelling -- not just a label
with the manufaCturer's name on it,
but' one which the fibre icon-
-tent and gives clear instructions for
proper care.
You cant tio
ALL- OUT:
IF you Feel
ALL-IN*
She stressed the importanc of
'reading' labels very carefully. y For
example; if looking for a' fabrW con-
taining terylene to provide durable
pleats, one should know the ;per-
centage of that fribre incorporated
in the' fabric.
People are ,Inclined to overlook
the label and then blame the Sales-
man if the garment isn't ,what was
expected, said Mrs. liumphrieS, al-
though the blame really lies with
the inadequate label.
Manufacturers of fibres are try-
ing to have finished garments con-
taining the fibre properly labelled
as to fibre content and with in-
structions for proper care.
But as yet an adequate system of
labelling fOr Canadian-made gar-
ments has not been established.
What is "crease-resistant" to one
manufacturer is not to another: Mrs.
Humphries in her article suggested
that Canadian manufacturers should ,,
get together aud'adopt a system of
labelling which would provide ail
necessary .information.
'Housewives can help bring this
about by insisting on adequately
labelled goods and passing up the
others, she advised,
