At the end of the war there were 21,569 miles of rural lines bringing electricity to the rural areas of Ontario, By September, 1951 the miles of line had increased to 37,239. During this period the horse- power demand in the rural areas showed a remark- able increase. The demand at war's end was 132,551 horsepower. By 1950 it had more than doubled to a total of 314,681 horsepower. On the farm, Hydro power is a low-cost hired man helping to produce more at a reduced cost. In the home it makes possible the use of modern elec- trical appliances which lighten work, save time and make Life easier for all. Yes, the coming of Hydro to the farm provides a better way of life for thousands of people in* the rural areas of the Province. Let Us All Remember Hydro Is Ours..

In a chilly and uncomfortable pension, in Florence. from which he carries on his excursions into the culture of medieval Italy, Hayden is attracted to the cold beauty of Olivia Lomond, scholar and authority on all things Italian before the sixteenth century. But the life of pure research is com- ; Plicated for Hayden by pert little i Roxy from hack home and by Lor- enzo Lundsgard, who wants to pack- • : age Florentine culture for American' : consumption. Lundsgard da z z 1.e s; Olivia and, for a time, most of the I American Colony.' ! This book is typical Lewis. Here we; have the same slashing satiite, the', same bite, the, same unerring sense i of the ridiculous in the human animal. As in Dodsworth - (who re- 1 appears in this work), he gives a merciless picture of Americans ! abroad, But being Lewis, he also dis- sects the Europe of today, mirroring today's problems in the story -and its unforgettable characters. .dRinglikIMICIMMISMIEFEIRESM• helping to haul tile, $4.50; Duncan • the Brontes and the Industrial revo- Brewer, helping to haul tile, $4.50; Duncan Brewer, spraying barns, $9.75; Bob Jamieson, spraying barns, $3..00; Clarence White cutting wood, $1.00; Duncan Brewer, cutting wood, $1.50; Jack Love, cutting wood, $1.50; Bob Jamieson, cutting wood, $1.50; Gordon Walsh, Crosby drain, labor and tile, $14.00; Jim Walsh, Grasby drain, $12,; Jack Johnston, Grasby drain, $12.; Clifton Walsh.

The Great Escape is such a story. • At the close of the author's previous book Escape to Danger he wrote briefly about ' the mass break-out , from Stalag Luft III in which he played a part. Now at last he is able to tell the full story. In a tiny compound 600 R.A.E. and Dominion airmen worked for a year under the strictest secrecy • on the great tunnels Tom, Dick and Harry. These were hundreds of feet • long, with underground railways, workshops, air pumping stations and . deep enough to avoid German sound • detectors. Under the very noses of the alert German guards the prison- ' ers organized factories for making German uniforms, compasses, maps and documents and even a studio for fake passport photographs. The day- to-day progress towards the climax is unbelievably exciting. The author was in the middle of it all, working for 'X', the secret escape organization, Since the war Brickhill has twice been back to Germany.
