some are used regularly in

Can the puppies of a dog that
has an outstanding field trial re-

be expected to inherit these
characteristics? Such expecta-

So, this matter of instinct is
not one to be treated lightly. The

of the grace" and power of the.
doer, or of the higher world in
which he stands.
Our study today is of the first
of the signs which Jesus did.
Our Memory Selection is: "This
beginning of miracles did Jesus
in Cana of Galilee, and mani-
fested forth his glory; . and
disciples believed on him." John
2:11. This statement indicates
that all reputed miracles con-
nected with Christ's youth found
in the Apocryphal Gospels arc
fictitious. These signs manifest
Christ's glory.
It is noteworthy that the first
of Christ's signs should be per-
formed on the joyous occasion
of a wedding, Jesus was inter-
ested in weddings though He did
not marry. However, He is pre-
paring a Bride which He shall
present to Hiself on His return.
Ephesians 5:25-27; For her, the
Church, He did far more than
turn. water into wine; He gave
Himself. He shed His own blood
on. Calvary for the redemption
of sinners that He might prepare ,
a bride for Himself.
Much has been said about the
possibility of the 'good wine'
which Jesus made, containing
alcohol. Since it was not analy-
zed by an chemist, it is impos-
sible Jo know. This was not the
juice of the grape. It was wholly
supernatural, made entirely out
of water. We cannot doubt that
God was well able to produce
miraculously a drink, and a nu-
tritious drink, too, that tasted
better than their man-made
wine, without any alcohol in it.
The Bible condemns drunken-
ness. "They that do such things
shall not inherit the kingdom of
God.", Galatians 5:21. The drink
that Jesus made was not design-
ed to promote drunkenness.
Perish the thought.

The Versatility
Of Dogs
The astounding versatility of
dogs has been the subject of
some very interesting stories.
The many ways in which the dog
has adapted himself to the seg.,
vice of mankind, in peace and
war, Industry and science, Werk
and sport, are far too numerous
to list.
The natural intelligence Of
canines has been developed to
such a high degree that at least
one member of practically every,
breed has achieved an accom-
plishment which Is not indigen-
ous to its breed, and is some-
times a specialty of another
breed.
For example, Dalmatians are
considered a nonsporting breed
but have been used fox' finding
and pointing upland game birds;
dachshunds are classified in the
hound group but have been suc-
cessfully trained to retrieve
waterfowl; and mongrels have
been put to work trailing lost
persons. I have heard it fre-
quently said that trail hounds
have little aptitude for intensive
training, but it is my opinion
that much depends on the in-
dividual dog,
All dogs possess, in at least
some small degree, the pointing
instinct. In the pointing bird dog
breeds this has been encouraged,
nourished, and developed for
such a long time that it has be-
come a dominant characteristic;
In others, the instinct to point lies
dormant, but it is still there.
This age-old instinct, fleeting
though the action was original-
ly, has been developed through
many years of encouragement
and training to such an extent
that a pointing dog is now ex-
pected to remain motionless and
rigid upon scenting game, until
the hunter arrives to flush it.
To the student of gun-dog be-
havior, it is not very surprising
to see a member of some non-
pointing breed occasionally come
to a staunch point on game birds.
Nevertheless, it is unusual
enough to be spectacular,
Many Labradors~ golden, and
Chesapeake Bay retrievers are
used regularly in pheasant hunt-
ing, particularly in the ringneck
country of Canada, Generally,
these are hunted in the manner
of spaniels and encouraged to
range close and flush their game,
altheugh I am sure there is an
occasional point registered.
In judging springer and cock-
er spaniel field trials, I have seen

IN THE DRIVE- FOR FREEDOM BY SMALL NATIONS
since the war, France has lost territories that" addup
to an area many times her own size, Boxes in News-
map above point out those nations and enclaves which
have obtained or been granted complete independ-
ence from France. Most former French possessions,
however, have chosen to become self-governing
members of the French Community, similar to the

a cost of $2.20 but is effective

Sodium chlorate applied dry
at 10 pounds per square rod, kill-
ed all vegetation at a cost of
$1.35, Six pounds of a monuron-
borate mixture applied dry did
the job for $2.25 per square rod.
Monuronborate is not inflamma-
ble or harmful to livestock or
clothing.
TCA, dalapon and amitrole are
more suitable for large 'patches
of couch grass and some other
weeds in fields, but their resi-
dual effect is of short duration.
Canada's economy is in trou-
ble, and the United States has
every reason to want to be of ,
help. For if the recession in the
Dominion, already more severe
than our own, is prolonged or
grows worse, the ill effects will
be felt in our own country as
well. Our exports will 'suffer,
for Canada is our best customer,
buying a fifth of 'the goods sold
beyond our borders. Income
from investments will suffer, for e
bath firms and individuals are ;,^
heavily involved in Canadian
owning& • In Canada itself, moreover, a
worsening or prolongation of thee,
slump can only lend force to
proposals for increased protec-
tionism which have been heard
for the past four years and lon-
ger.' And it may be reasonably
argued that, Empire preference
bloc or no . Empire preference
bloc, there is no other country
that can do as much to invigor-
ate the flagging Canadian econo-
my as the United States.
Co-operation is wanted in vir-
tually every category. The econ-
' omit portrait of Canada shows
decline in retail sales, exports,
housing starts, capital spending,
industrial employment and farm
income. Business failures are on
the rise. A PWA-like program
is in, effect to carry workers
through the winter. The one
bright snot is' the:Pulp and pee
. per industry, which is turning
in a banner year.
What can the United States
do to help? It can buy more
from Canada, particularly of
processed and manufactured
items, Our present tariffs dis-
criminate against these products
in favour of commodities in
, their natural or semi-finished
state, which deprives the Cana-
dians of the greater income their
country could obtain from carry-
During recent years it has
' been found that leptospiral in-
fection in. North American cattle
and swine is more widespread
than originally suspected. Dr. P.
J. G. Plummer, Director of the
Animal Pathology Laboratories
of the Canada Department of
Agriculture, believes that al-
though this increase may be real,
it could be due merely to the
greater use of diagnostic facili-
ties, These facilities are contin-
ually being improved through
joint field and laboratory re-
search. *
In adult cattle leptispirosis
results in abortion and a de-
crease in milk production. How-
ever about 75 per cent of the
animals infected do not show
symptoms but they may shed the
infeotive agent in their urine for
some weeks. In calves the infec-
tion is usually severe and results
in the appearance of blood in
urine and then death,
*
In swine the disease is less
apparent but may occasionally
cause abortion. Infected swine
shed lePtospira in their urine
for many' months, Investigation
of a recent outbreak in calves
revealed that they had been in
direct contact with infected
sows.

It was on a midsummer day
that a sudden commotion in the
growth by the roadside brought
me up with a round' turn. Then
I saw Ma Half hidden in the
greenery of the asparagus patch
from whence came a frenzy of
startled clucking was the brown
mottled body of a hen pheasant.
I took a step toward her. Imme-
diately the honeysuckle into
which I had stepped came alive
with little round feathered bod-
ies, the size of baby chicks, that
stuttered here and scattered
there. . . .
One little creature wee almost
underfoot. Leaning' over I cup-
ped my hands in front of him
and in alarm he leaped into the
trap, For a split second I felt
him, .soft and crouching, his
back eyes blinking, a little fea-
thered parcel of perfected camo-
uflage with a slight yellow bar
on his wings. Then with a sud-
den spurt he slipped through my
fingers and scrambled off into
the depth of the honeysuckle.-

We can try again to work out
methods of disposing of our

will avoid depriving Canada of
its natural markets,. Wheat
means enough eeeo 44he United'

even more to Canada's. What is
more, Canada's ghat cg it, has
been relatively still worse than
our own. At present the farm-

duction has its depressing ef-
fect' throughout a wide reach

the new Administration bring a
fresh ferment of genuine inter-
est and practical activity to this
subject, taking it up at the ca-
binet level, in executive depart-
