It takes a lot of cooling to keep d Polar Bear happy. This largest
member of the bear family is smaller than a porcupine at birth,
but often weighs more than three-quarters of a ton when full ,
grown. To this tremendous bulk, add the fact that the bear is
covered with a thick, water-proof coat, which is designed to protect
him in the Arctic . it's a big job keeping him cool in our zoos.

The Canadian army received a bil
this week from a former German
prisoner of war in Canada for $25
he said he left with a government de-
partment when he was Interned.
Translated from the German, the
letter reads: "The undersigned would
like to receive a credit note for the
25 dollars he deposited while a prison-
er of war.
"From November 9. 1944. until
April 17, 1916, he was in a Manitoba
lumberjack camp." It was signed
"Polzhofer Franz."
Receipt of the letter raised a few
amused smiles at .M..my Headquar-
ters. "I suppose everyone wants mon-
ey these days," one officer said.
Whether or not the ex-POW Polz-
hofer gets his 25 bucks doesn't rest
with the Army. The letter was passed
to the appropriate government de-
partment for action, if any.

Air mail is quicker. but the postal
system he used while a crew membor
of the frigate HMOS St. Stephen is a
lot more fun, thinks Ldg. Sea. Mich-
ael Chihrin, of Guelph, Ont.
When the St. Stephen was operated
by the Navy as an ocean weather
ship, most of her crew took up hob-
bies to keep them occupied during
the long, dull patrols on Station
Baker, between Labrador anti Green-
land. '
Ldg. Seamen Chihrin found amuse-
ment in dropping bottles, with notes
in them, over the. ship's side. Each
note gave his name and address, the
date, the ship's position and other
data.
Recently Chihrin received a ?sitar
from Treguier, France, informing him
that one of his special missives had
found its way to a beach on the Cote
du Nord. It had been "mailed" on
June 11, 1950, and was picked up on
April 24, 1951, In other words, it had
floated more than 1500 miles in just
over ten months.
The letter, forwarded by the French
Naval Officer-in-charge of the dis-
trict, read as follows:

Canadian manufacturers have done much
towards relieving kitchen drudgery. Better
cooking methods, better tools, canned and
frozen goods, semi-prepared foods —all have
helPed to provide the demand of the harassed

Advertising has made a vital contribution
to making prices within reach of all, because
advertising makes for mass production and
this means lower cost to produce — to sell.
Advertising too, provides innumerable an-
swers to "What will we have for dinner?"
New recipes, new foods, new menus, new
ways to save time and effort.
This newspaper would be quite a different
thing without the new ideas, where to buy
and for how much, provided by the
