able predicament , . recently

girl of 22, whom my wife knew,
and we are planning to marry
the first of the years My
parents-in-law, however, have
violently and unexpectedly op-
posed -the mart:lege, and for the
first time in our affectionate
relationship I am ill at ease,

Strange Weddings
As she opened the pared of
liver the butcher's. boy •had lust
delivered she stepped: back with.
astonishment. Scrawled in ink
across the wrapping, paper were.
the words, "Will you Marry me?"
Connie, Wile lived in blew York
and whose husband had been
killed in .Korea two year$ before,:
hurried to the telephone and
ealled the butcher who had taken
her out several times.
• "I received yoge message,
Jack," ' she whispered, "And—and
I will"
"Tau will what?". asked the
butcher,
"Why, marry you," • Connie
murmured, hesitantly.
There was a long pause, Then
the butcher said: "I didn't send
you any message, Connie, But
it's okay, marry you. I, would
have proposed before but I
Couldn't sort of work up the
nerve,'.
So Connie and Jack were mar-
ried. But to this day they don't
know, who sent the message!
There 'have. been even stranger
proposals, For example, when
farmer Nathaniel Peters met a
girl at a Johannesburg party, he
fell wildly in love, but had to
return to his farm, 100 miles
away, before be could do any-
thing about it.
It would take several days for
a letter to reach the girl and her
reply to come back, and Peters
just could not stand the suspense..
Then he had a brilliant idea.
He visited the chief of a.near-by
village and asked the man if he
could get a message to the girl
by tom-tom,
The chief agreed, and soon
tom-toms were sending the mes-
sage by bush telegraph through.
.500 miles of swamp and
_The message went at dawn. He
got a .verb* firm reply of "yes"

be lost — it will take only one
killing frost to do it,
While the women of the
party were admiring gardens,
turkeys, dogs and new-born
calves the men were "walking"
the farm -- over the ravine and
through the bush and the back
fields, discussing the merits and
disadvantages of the farm as a
whole as farmers always do
when they get together.
Here, at Ginger Farm, there
was a little extra activity this
morning. The stock truck came
in to take a my and calf to
market. Partner was anticipat-
ing a little trouble in loading
the cow. But he `needn't have
worried, Livestock truckers are
better equipped to deal with per-
verse animals than they used to
be. A' ramp with sides is lower-
ed from the back of the truck
to fit inside the stable door and
the cattle, with a little persua-
sion from the rear, have no op-
tion but to walk into the truck.
There is no excuse these days
for livestock to arrive at the
stockyards bruised and beaten.
Thank goodness we have finally
reached the stage when care is
usually exercised so that otir
dumb animals are not subjected
to needless suffering. Years ago
I used to dread seeing a drover
drive into the yard. I remember
one drover Partner refused to
do business with at all. He was
excellent at selling but terribly
rough with the cattle. We pre-
ferred a man — maybe not
quite so smart but certainly
more humane,
Our next worry will be sell-
ing the old hens — and that will
be another story. Always, as soon
as the first hen is caught the
birds get scared and fly all over
the place. Maybe the time will
come when a specially wired in
truck will be invented so that
hens like cattle, could just be
driven into the truck. I can't
see any reason why some such
contrivance couldn't be invent-
ed — with movable partitions
for use in going from one call
to another.
Partner is very busy these
days rounding up useless wood
lying around the place, such as
neckyokes and whiffle-trees,
They make ,excellent fuel for
the fireplace, Of course the end
pieces are salvaged for ,scrap
iron, Like all other farm folk
we have an awful accumulation
of stuff,, saved because "it might
come in handy sometime." But
My goodness, our two wee
grandsons have been here quite
a bit lately — and I haven't
said a word about them. Isn't
that; almost unbelievable —
coming from a grandmother?
Edward it only one-week short
efe fourr e monelse old and he is
the happiest, most contented
little fellow _I, ever knew, And
that is not jtiet the View of a
Act4kg ,grandmother, Many other
people have, I said the same
thing. Even his mother says he
is easier to leek after than Dave
over was in his baby days.
David ,''of course, is no longer a
baby. lie is quite the little boy
and very proud of his "brud-
der." Dec was quite worried be-
fore the baby arrived in case
David might he, jealous. But
there isn't a sign of it, possibly
because his parents, have always
been careful to give Dave a sense
of possession — Edward is
David's baby as well as mum-
n.y's; David's brother and David
is given the privilege of helping
to carry the cot or carriage into
the house and to, run around and
get this and that for baby bro-
ther. So it is all working out
very -niCely and everybody is
happy. It .ie very nice to have
two little boys come to visit in-
stead of one. One is better than
none at all but an only child"
needs so much careful training
if 'he is to grow up unselfish and
unspoilt.
Well, I suppose there has been
plenty of complaining about the
unseasonably cold, wet weather.
Yesterday was miserable and as
Partner and I drove along No.
8 Highway and across country
we- noticed smoke coming from
a good many chimneys, includ-
ing the farmhouse belonging to
;friends in the Hespeler district
whom we were visiting for the
first time for over a year. That
smoke ,curling upward from the
chimney was a very welcome
sign. The house was as warm as
the welcome we received. This
farm as one of the few where
the grain harvest had been com-
pleted but of course there is
still the silo to fill. I don't think
ever as in a country garden
where there were so many beau-
ulul flowers — almost every
kind you could think of — an-
nuals, perennials, shrubs — all
with a profusion of bloom. The
women-folk in that family cer-
tainly have a green thumb —
but how they ever keep up with
the work I don't know, It
grieved me to look around and
think that so much of "the
glory if the garden" will soon ISSUE 41 — 1956
The Creation ,Story

,Fer this last quarter of the
year we have an unique series
on thirteen of the great,passages
of the Bible ranging from Gene-
sis to Revelation. Six of them
are from the. Old. Testament and
seven from, the New Testament,
Each has a unique message 'for
Christian life •and -thought.
For' this lesson we have the
creation htory. A scientist once
said, "There is no more possibil-
ity of the world being here as
a result of chance than of Web-
ster's Unabridged Dictionary re-
sulting from an explosion in a
printing plant." But from where
"did the world come? We read in
Hebrews 11.3: "Through faith we
understand that the worlds were
framed' by the word of God, so
that things which are seen were
not made of things which do ap-
pear." The Bible begins with the
words, "In the beginning God."
God was before matter.
When did God create the
heavens and the earth? The
Scriptures are indefinite as to
the period of time covered ,by
the first three verses, The Chris-
tian 'Century of March 3, 1954,
eontained a brief summary of an
address in New Orleans by Dr.
Edward McCrady, one of Ameri-
ca's top nuclear physicists. We
quote: "Science today is faced
with the stark fact that creation
occurred at a definite time, he
said; studies in 'radioactivity
measurements of time show that
all the atoms of the universe sud-
denly came into being 5.07 bil-
lion years ago. Dr, McCrady ex-
pressed concern over the discov-
ery that an atomic explosion does
not jug' disperse or break up
matter, but causes it to cease to
exist." This estimate is in agree-
ment with geological estimates.
Albert Einstein taught us that
the fundamental units of matter
are but pin points of energy —
power. Whose power? The an-
ewer is in the Bible's nest verse.
Man was the crowning work of
God's creation. He did not
evolve from a monkey. He was
made in the image of God. The
likeness is seen in the mental
and moral features, such as rea-
son, personality and free will.

"Dear Anne Hirst: I ama
widower in my late 30's, with
a young daughter. I have fallen
in love with a girl of 20, whom
I knew in college. She is di-
vorcing her husband; we are
not seeing each other until it is
final, but. I am sure she loves
me.
"I have a comfortable home,
and can give her the security
she has not had. We are tem-
peramentally attuned—in fact,
everything seems so very right
that I am wondering about the
future! My -marriage was not
happy, so perhaps I am a bit
fearful • .
"I have read your column for
a -long time, and I would value
your opinion. ROGER"
* Unless there is an obstacle
* to this marriage that you
* have not confided, I see no
* reason why you should not
* gladly go ahead with your
* plans.
* You and this girl both have
* h a d disillusioning experi-
* ences, which will make you
* appreciate each other all the
* more. She is fond of your
* little girl, and the child seems
* to welcome her friendship, If
* you are weighing the differ-
* once in your ages, to my
* mind they do not matter. You
* two are entirely compatible,

Cats That Help
The Scientists
The strange light that "shines"
harts cats' eyes at night has long
puzzled zoologists, It is now be-
ing inve;iigated thoroughly for
the-first time.
Scientists are also trying to
find out whether a eat can really

dark to the human eve. The in-
vestigators, armed with torches.
are: visi'ing zoos at night and
hope to make new discoveries
about She eyes of. many other
animate as well as cats.
A British zoologist says that.
What we nedinarile call a der];
room is actually full of tiny rave
of light—rays which a cat is able
to nick tin easily,
"A cat's pupils, mere slits in
the daytime, exteand -far more

A London scientist in 1951
matched his Own sharp eyes
against these of six cats in an at-
tempt to find out how Much cats
can re-, in the dark. When a Sail-
col,. of milk was 'illuminated"
with a light beam so faint that,
it was invisible to the scientist,

Magic Killed Him
Every day scores .of human
beings lose -their lives by eccid-
ent. Most accidents are due to
commonplace,causes but occ4se
,tonally there 'are unusaul mis-
haps such as the Frenchman
who dozed oil in front of the
fire, His wooden leg caught
alight and he was fatally. bur-
ned,
Consider the case of the man
who was walking along with a
bottle of acid in his pocket. Some
boys were throwing Stones and
one hit the man's pocket, It
didn't leave a mark on him, but
it killed him. The bottle was
broken, and the acid escaped
and soaked into his body and
in ball an hour he was dead, ,
In Jamaica, a few month ago,
a magician was performing at
a social function, For one of
his tricks he required the help
of tevelve strong men from the
audience, lie produced a rope
which he placed round his neck
and told six Men to take one
end of the rope while the other
six teak the other end.
At a given signal they wtre
to start a tug o' war, with him
in the middle. But something
welt wrong, the men pulled
and the Magician was strangled
under the eyes of the luetrified
audience,
Not se long ago a Man who
