Hear Corn Growing
C'AN YOU HEAR corn gaewing
in August' "If you think that is a
myth, go listen,'" say's Howard T.
Walden 1I. editor of "torn," who
ran write as (lops no one else
about this wondrous crop. "Go into
a great corn field," he invites. "Go
deep into that sea of corn. so deep
that for a hundred yards in every -
direction corn is surrounding you,
standing; higher than your head.
You will have placed yourself, then
in the center of a distinct and
special world. a world made up of
earth, air, and cern. Nothing else.
There is no wind; in the motion-
less and brooding night there is no
reason for any sound. But listen."
"There is a whisper, a faint
crackling, coming from nowhere
and everywhere at once. It night
be the ghost of a sound, imagined
perhaps, But listen again. It isn't
imagined, and it isn't the earn rustl-
ing in the wind, for there is no
wind. It is the minute stretching
of a billion corn leases, stalks,
husks, kernels. It is the dark t-hem-
istry of earth, working upward
through roots„ drawing Int through
the standing plants, transmuting
the essences of soil into lite. It
is the sound of growth, a sound
perhaps lira 'd by insects and other
lowly creatures as a veritable mac
of creation. You are as close, here,
to the inner quirk of nature as
ever you'll he. Fon are ]'coming
to the growth of corn."

When A Glove Meal*
A Marriage Proposal
Nowadays the snort lotion al•
ways wetu's gloves, but .Mita the
twelfth mutiny they were forbid-
den to use titetn. Accordit e; to
primitive Egyptian paintings, how-
ever, they got over the ban by
staining or paiuting the semblance
of gloves on their hands and arms.
Before the twelfth century gloves
were restricted to the cergy. Offi-
ciating privets wore while gioves
throughout services as an indica-
tion of purity.
Then permission was at last
granted to royalty to wear gloves
in church. And by the middle of

a greater importance than rings.
The swain icnulil ober a glove to

gloves, it indicated that she accep-
ted his marriage proposal.

In Their Dreams
But gloves could symbolize
hatred as well as love. At one
time a light slap in the fare with
a glove was deemed more insulting
than a right-handed swing to the
jaw.
T. -day. on festive occasions, the
sarsges of the Belgian Congo wear
gl,)\es after indicating hatred: the
g'tives are made from the skin of
their erstwhile enemy:
Reversing this unpleasant proce-
dure. the people of crreeland wear
gloves made Conn the hair of de-
parted relations as a symbol of
respect.
History has shown many other
uses for gloves. In ancient China
a guest knew immediately that he
was welcome if his host offered flim
a leather glove.
To omit title gesture el'as a tact-
ful way of showing trim the door.
European girls in the seven
teent]t century slept with one glove
beneath their pillows in the hope
of seeing their future mates in their
dreams.
In Sicily, not so lona' ago, girls
were more practical: if one was
anxious to settle down to the du-
ties of wifehood. she advertised the
fact by wearing red gloves.
The Oldest Pair
The oldest gloves in the world,
which are now museum pieces,
were those discovered in the tomb
of King Tut -Ankh -Amen in 1923.
Second oldest are those which
were worn by Bishop \Vykeman
in 1397.

of solid gold and set with precious

H RO ICLES
N „qc- M
1 h last two days have seen me
very much occupied with one of
the hardest jobs of the year. It
might not be hard for everyone
but it is for me. That job is get-
ting ready for a five-day holiday.
Since Partner will be "hatching"
my Preparations have consisted
mostly in leaving hint as well pro-
vided
rovided for as possible so that he
can get his own meals with a mini-
mum of effort. It is at such a time
that a "frig" con:e in [nighty handy
—a week's supply of pies, fruit
and meat can be stacked up quite
con venien tly.
For me the hardest part of
these pre -holiday preparations is
keeping my head from wool-gath-
ering. Last time I was away for
a couple of days I took Partner's
reading glasses away u'itlt me as
well as my own! I was twenty
miles from home when I discover-
ed' what 1 had dune. The only
thing 1 could do was phone home
and break the news. So long as I
let Partner know what happened
I knew it would be all right as he
had an old pair he could fall back
on. Otherwise 1 could imagine
him Stunting the house oyer --and
maybe the Karn as well --toasting
precious time and getting more
u wondering

what on earth had become of those
"darn. fool glasses!" Actually, it
was a fortunate mistake because
the frames were',rol:cu, so, while
I had diem with me, I stag able to
get the old lenses put into new
frames --which would have meant

and decided it didn't show much
promise as a seed crop. Unfor-
ttiaately, by the time one ran be
sure of seed possibilities the alf-
alfa is a little too advanced to
make good hay. However, one has
to lake that chance.
There is still threshing to be
done in this neighborhood. What
with catchy weather and waiting
for the threshing machine it must
have seemed like a long-drawr out
harvest to our neighbour -Farmers
--longer, probably, than when the
crop was stowed away in the barn
to await the arrival of the thresh-
hig machine- Once in the barn
worries itt connection with wet
weather were at an end in those
by -gone days.
Partner and 1, in conversation
with fanners from various other
localities, have discovered that
many of them prefer ,the old meth-
od of harvesting•—if they had the
11017 Ili cope with it.' They con-
tend it is less wasteful and less
expensive. '1.'e feel that way our-
scldes,
The Canadian Countryman and
Panner', Advocate in. 'rWeldwood
Jottings" gives some in teresting'
..figures along these lines. It says,
in part—"Machinery takes the hard
manual labour out of 'the grain har-
vest, but at considerable east. $2
an acre for swathing, $6 for com-
bining and $12 an (tour for putting
the straw in the barn makes pres-
ent day harvesting expensive, par-
ticularly with a light crap of straw
and grain. It cost 32 cents a bushel
Inc use of machinery and operator
to harvest 15 acres of oats on a
t'ustom basis, besides the farm help
in handling the grain and gather-
ing in the straw." The last sen-
tence is significant because, in
spite of high-priced machinery,
manpower is still necessary for fi-
nal handling of any. -kind of crop,
including hay. • • „

and investigated, ,'.

sions, and indeed unable to start

It is fairly certain that numlers

as ntlssiug cjtave' in, reality been
quietly put away and their .bodies
successfully concealed.
Worst Year
The plain troth.about murder is
that the chances of getting away
with it are unfortunately favorable.
This was revealed In a murder
chart prepared by t)ie 7lonle Office
for the Royal Commission on Cagi-
tal Punishment. Between the years
1900 and 1948 there were 7,318
murders known to the pollee. Lt
1,635 cases file suspect committed
suicide.
Only 3,042 successful arrests were
made, so that 2,641 murderers es-
caped unscathed 'These were mur-
ders known to the, police. How
many unknown murders hapileiied
within that same period nobody'San
tell, but experts estimate that three
out five of all murderers are get-
ting away with it.
The worst 'year this century was
1945, when 218 people were killed
- and the police failed to arrest 119
of the killers.
Assuming that murderers enjoy a
normal length of life, Home Office
figures reveal that there are at least
1,200 of them mi xi nig freely
with their fellow -citizens to -day.
Although this may be alarming, we
can tater comfort in the fact that
it is ram for any but the profes-
sional killer to strike twice. And
professional killers are very few in
that country. Most notorious of
recent times was Haigh, who is
thought to have destroyed nine
people,
Human Vampire
Startling facts came to light be-
fore the eyes of Scotland Yard in
1947 when they began a search for
a missing widow, .Airs. Olive Dea-
con. Several cases of persons who
had mysteriously disappeared over
a period of three years were linked
together. The circumstances were
strikingly similar.
In each case letters had given
the suspected murderer power to
dispose of the property of his vic-
tim, but so skilfully had those doc-
uments been forged no suspicion
arose at the time- Studying these
cases, the Yard found that all the
victims had business transactions
with, and were friends, of, one par-
ticular man:
The flat which this man had
rented was searched, and experts
found clues which made then think
that human bodies had been disin-
tegrated on the prcnui-e, tit rneaus
of an acid blab.
The accusing finger of justice
started to point in . the direction
of John George Haigh. For years
he had escaped discovery, but he
had made a fatal mistake in his
latest killing, that of Airs. Deacon,
Inc had hurried and not completed
the job thoroughly; a pair of false
teeth belonging to the missing wi-
dow were found,
