Land Where Time
Has Stood Still
Arnhen Laud, Northern Australia,
le a place where time has stood
still for thousands of years, and
the aborigine inhabitants have not
changed a custom nor advanced
their mode of life since the time ,
Caesar invaded Britain. From this
little known territory a party of
explorers recently returned with
twenty tons of specimens, which
they will now settle down to study
in an attempt to bridge the gulf
of knowedge that exists between
wean today and his primitive an-
- eestors.
Of the few world territories
which still remain largely unex-
plored, Arnhem Land holds prior
place because of its exciting scien-
1l1c possibilities.
Entry Forbidden
Turned into a giant aboriginal
rseerve by the Australian Common.
wealth many years{ ago, . it was
iarbidden for any to enter this
40untry except missionaries and a
Sew officials. Thus, it has remained
"unknown territory". except for
some brief Mapping flights by air-
sraf t.
Many questions.,puzzed the scien-
tists. Why, for instance, are the
aborigines as primitive today as
their ancestors of thousands of
years ago? It has been scientifically
accepted that the aborigines knew
how to build only the most elemen-
tary kind of shelter as a home,
so how can one explain the ruins
of a city observed from the air
in an arid part of ;Arnhem Land?
And was it true that the story of
a thousand years of aboriginal life
was contained in countless fan-
tastic patterns made of string?
One day the natural history ex-
perts of the party, keen to collect
as many specimens as possible, hit
upon the ingenious idea of form-
ing a "cockroach committee" of
aboriginal . women and children.
With the aid of their native help-
ers, the experts showed them what
was expected of them. The follow-
ing day they were confronted with
the staggering spectacle of num-
erous aboriginals holding in their
bare hands hundreds of live insects
-ants, termites, beetles and the
larvae of butterflies, moths, flies,
-wasps and native beetles!
Payment t was made in n sweets
and tobacco, ba co, and these two induce-
ments brought more handfuls of
specimens •each morning and after-
noon. Aniong 'them was a spider
known as the "St. Andrew's Cross,"
because it fashions its web in the
shape of a cross. Snakes and liz-
ards were also abundant. Some
dangerous, but all handled with
skill by the natives,
In mid -summer 1948 the expe-
dition moved to its second base,
at liirrkaa, on the mainland of
northern Australia, using aboriginal
Wives as porters for the and jour.
nest. Research work at this new
Kase, which was situated close to
a great swamp believed to be full
of giant crocodiles, yielded minter-
ous speciea of plants, fishes, and
mammals, many of the mbelieved to
be hitherto unknown, Dr. Robert
Miller, one of the experts on fishes,
collected 350 different species in
a single day off Kirrlcala Red-
a "fishy" tale 'which for once is
unquestionably authentic!
"The ;nen natives went turtle
hunting on one occasion, but with-
out success. However, turtle eggs
were quite a common item in camp
dint. These were eaten raw, boiled
in water, or cooked in the hot
sand. The women's catch varied,
Often when the low tides occured
early in the morning, they would
go for shell -fish, stingrays, and oy-
sters -these were eaten for break-
fast." The women often walked
six to eight mies a day in search
of food. Near the camp were a few
cycad palms, the nut of which is
the main vegetable food in many
parts of Arnhem Land during the
latter part of the dry season. These
nuts have to be soaked for three
or more days in running water, and
they are then cooked in paper -baric
packages, or are ground to flour -
like powder and cooked like damper
(unleavened bread made of Hour,
water, and sometimes salt).
It was the Australian anthropolo-
gist Fred McCarthy who hall the
good fortune to come across some
extraordinarily interesting "string -
patterns". These can be compared
with carved . murals or bas relief
drawings which -in the Mediter-
ranean area as wellas elsewhere
-have revealed a great deal of the
ancient history of different races.
Reef Petroleums
Expands Interests
The manner in which United
States capital is being poured into
the Alberta oil fields is clearly
shown in the case of Reef Petro-
leums, Limited, a Canadian com-
pany which has secured title to
reservations and leases totalling
183,000 acres,
Standard Oil of Indiana is work-
ing on 28,040 acres of these hold-
ings, spaying Reef $28,000 cash and
bearing the drilling expense, with
Reef retaining a 25% interest, Rio
Vista Oil Co. Ltd. another large
U.S. company „(subsidiary of Rio
Bravo Oil Co.) is working on 60,-
000 Reef acres and will share well
or wells on a. 75%-2550, :basis, with
Reef retaining. 25%.
A terada Petroleum Corporation,
one of the largest of the American
companies, is testing 58,828 Reef -
controlled acres by seismic survey
and may drill an exploratory well
for three-quarter interest. This com-
pany has a similar agreement on a
block of C.P.R. lands, reserved by
Reef, totalling 8,979 acres.
In addition Reef Petroleums holds
2% interest -110,000 acres- in
Bear Oil Limited, formed to explore
5,500,000 acres betwe'en the pro-
ducing Redwater field and the tar
sands of Fort McMurray, under
direction of Dr. Theo, Link, with
the following major U.S. and Cana-
dian oil companies as partners:
Pacific Petroleums Limited; Sun- -
ray Oil Company; Pacific Petro-
leums; Tower Petroleums. This is
the most ambitious oil seeking pro-
ject in Canada at this time.
Reef Petroleums has bought a
large block of ground at Stettler,
Alta. from Tower Petroleums and
a well is now being drilled there.
Reef has also taken an equity in the
Dodds farmout of imperial Oil, with
a well going down, and in a third
well 1 on the Spedden farmout of
Barnsdall Oil, Company policy is
to participate in any good looking
fartnouts and acreage. II the past
two months $150,000 has been placed
in Reef treasury.
The combination of substantial
working capital, the financial and
technical assistance of powerful
American associates and an im-
mense potential oil-bearing acreage
places Reef Petroleums inan ex-
ceptionally good position.

Trains That Ride
Just Like Velvet
Is there a halfway vehicle poe-
sible between airplane and train-
s kind of winged centaur, as k
were?
The French nationalized railroads
think they have developed such a
creature in their rubber - tired
streamliners, Hard-pressed Cana-
dian and American railroads facing
airplane competition may be inter-
ested.
The French have attacked the
problem in a very logical.,place, the
wheels. This might seem a much
too simple approach in an age
when complicated technicalities
hold the floor. But when you get
right down to it, the body of a
car and. the body of an airplane
being so much the same, about
tate only, place for change reits on
the -supporting surfaces and the
driving power:
in an airplane, some 'noise is
caused by the• rush of air past the
wings, but its often excessive noise
and its vibrations come from the
pane engines. Soundproof' cabins
with which many airlines equip
their planes have helped sotne;'but
not too much, though" the newest
British -built jet planes are said to
travel at high speed withno engine
drone and ,virtually no vibtlation.
In a train being hauled by a
locomotive, there is no driving
noise or vibration to transmit itself
.into the body 'of the carriage. The
only sound and vibration: come
from the. support element, from the
wheels running on, the tracks. Ergo,
said the French, let's attack the
problem there.
This they did by using pneumatic
rubber -tired wheels, running dir-
ectly on the rails with a metal
flange to keep them on the track.
An ordinary railroad car would
be too heavy to put on rubber tires,
so the French designed a light-
weight modern type of streamline
train, with carriages weighing 14
tons instead of the usual 40 tons.
Even this weight caused for wide
distribution in using pneumatic
tires, so there are 20 wheels to
take it. These are divided into two
trucks, fore and aft, of 10 wheels
each, 5 on a side.
A gauge indicates the pressure
of each, and a failure of any one
would not prevent the train from
continuing to the next station,
where the wheels are . always
checked.
To see one of. these trainspull
out of a station is an uncanny ex-
perience. A great silver rod sud-
denly slides past without the slight-
est sound. The only' thing you can
liken it to is being in a motion-
' picture theatre where suddenly the
sound track goes. dead.
Inside the train, the experience
is• the satire. You are .loving be-
fore you know it and you glance
quickly 'to be sure that it is your
train that is starting, and not the
train next to you pulling out in
the opposite - direction, The take-
off ie handled smoothly by tie
engineer and you find yourself
'slipping through the rail yards and
across switch joints without sound
or vibration.
Naturally, the level for conversa-
tion is just like in your own home.
It makes airplane and ordinary
rail efforts to deaden sound seem
feeble by comparison. Sei you slide
along in something that is as
smooth as an airplane in perfect
weather but much more silent and
minus vibration.
On bad stretches of track, be-
cause France has not yet restored
ail its main lines to good condition,
you get bumps which rubber tires
cannot eliminate. Otherwise, the
trip exceeds in silent comfort both
ordinary air and rail travel. The
work the flanges have to do to
keep the car on the rails is ap-
parently very slight, because you
cannot trace any sound or feeling
to that source.
Naturally, this easy running is
translated into economy, and the
cost of hauling this train is much
cheaper than with the ordinary
steel -treaded -wheel cars.
As for speed, the Paris -Stras-
bourg trip is 3164 miles and, in-
cluding two stops, it has been done
for months now on a regular sched-
ule of five hours. Here again the
airplane gets competition because
110 time is lost in getting to and
from airports. Considering the
small time difference plus even
smoother and more silent travel,
there is less reason now for tak-
ing air.
the
The rubber -wheeled train itself
is completely modern, with beauti-
ful fluorescent lighting and all other
appointments giving maximum
comfort.

Some folks eat liver for reasons
of health. Others, just because they
love it. I happen to be in the sec-
ond category, personally, and atn a1 -
ways on the lookout for new and
interesting ways of cooking and
serving it.
v 4 b
Up to a few weeks ago I had
never heard of this method - and
perhaps it will be a novelty to some
of you as well. It's called
FRENCH FRIED LIVER
Clean liver and cut it in strips
(as you would potatoes for french
frying). Dip the liver strips in a
beaten egg and then roll in a mix-
ture of 34 flour and % cornmeal
until well coated, Fry in deep fat,
(The fat should be hot enough to
brown a stale bread cube in 60 sec-
onds.) Fry until golden brown -this
does not take long. Remove from
the deep fat and drain on paper tow-
eling. Season with salt and pepper
and serve with spicy tomato sauce.
Dip liver into the sauce and eat with
fingers.

More and more women are buy-
ing pressure sauce pans, and most
of them agree that they're a won-
derful help, and a real time saver.
Still, a recent survey shows that
there are many who use theirs only
occasionally, and -who are not get-
ting their money's worth out of
them.
k +k 'k
Take .teat, for example. A com-
mon objection heard during the
course of the survey was that meat
cooked in a pressure pan tends to
use its flavour. But there are things
you can do to retain both flavor and
texture.
* 'k *
First, sear the meat to a good
brown on all sides, Mrs. Roy Potter
suggested.
"If you don't sear it all around,"
she said, "you lose the juice, and
then it's more like a boiling piece."
She uses an iron skillet for this, al-
tho you can do it in the pressure
pan before putting on the lid.
* *
Then be sure to hold the pres-
sure constant while cooking. Varia-
tions in pressure tend to cause juices
to escape. The pressure used makes
a difference, too. Some books advise
10 pounds for meat -others 15
pounds.-hrobably texture is better
. when cooked at 10 pounds.
* * *
Ever try rabbit in the pressure
pan? Mrs. Harold Whitley did, and
liked it .fine. She browned it well
before pressuring it.
In winter, Airs. Whitley used a
coal range to heat the kitchen, so
fuel saving isn't an item then. It's
in summer that her pressure pan
gets a work-out, on the hot plate.
• * 3
In another part of the same coun-
ty, Mrs, Carl Lueder likes the pres-
sure pan for cooking pork. Pork
chops, when done, are put in the
oven for a few .minutes. This dry
heat seems to harden the fat. If you
have a broiler, that will give the
same result.
d' * 'k
Mrs. Potter and her neighbor,
Mrs. Leroy Heuniges, had given
pressure pan demonstrations for
their neighborhood, Meat loaf- was
one of the foods they prepared.
Here's the way they did it. Take:
134 pounds ground beef
pound ground pork
2 teaspoons salt
Pepper
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 medium-sized onion,
minced
1 stalke
c tory, minced
1 medium-sized carrot, grated
cup bran flakes
2 tablepsoons barbecue sauce
1 tablespoon lard
1 tablespoon water
4 large potatoes
Combine the beef and pork; sea-
son with salt and pepper. Add eggs,
onion, carrots, celery, bran flakes
and sauce. Stir well, and form into
two small loaves. Wrap in waxed
paper and chill at least one hour in
the refrigerator or other cool place.
(This prevents loaf from breaking
apart while cooking, and helps sego
zonings penetrate the meat.)
Heat potatoes and add fat. Brown
each loaf well all over. Place pota-
toes around loaves and add water.
Place cover 011 cooker and allovi'
steam to flow from vent. Cook 15
minutes at 15 pounds,
;E ' *
Swisa steak cooks . nicely in a
pressure pan, says Mrs. Ralph Ol-
sen, of Hamilton, She also recom-
mends this recipe for other sorts
meat balls:
134 pounds ground beef
34 cup rice
1 teaspoon salt
54 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon onion, minced
1 small can tomato soup
54 cup water
Combine meat, rice, salt, pepper
and onion. Shape into small balls.
Heat soup and water in cooker;
drop meat balls into soup mixt-met
place cover on; cook 10 minutes at
15 pounds. Let stand until pressure
goes down.
''
Green beans, carrots, Irish Pota-
toes -these cook wonderfully well
in the pressure pan. "And baked
beans," said Mrs. Potter; "are really
out of this world. The pressure pan
leaves them nice and soft and
moist."
* e tt
Steamed puddings and breads are
ideal for pressure pan cooking. Ac•
cording to directions, you start by
leaving the vent open. That gives
the effect of a steamer. You need
plenty of water in the pan, because
evaporation is rapid.
The bread is set on the "trivet,"
or rack. Final cooking is done un-
der pressure. Boston brown bread
is one of Mrs. Potter's favorite re-
cipes.
* * *
She recommends the pan for dum-
plings, too. "They come out so
fluffy and nice," she said. "Use it
just as a steamer for that -don't put
the weight on,"
* * '4
Be careful in cooking foods that
tend to foam, like apple sauce and
cereals. The vent -hole can become
plugged by food particles. Then,
after a high pressure is built up, it
will spurt out with considerable
force. One woman ended up with
apple sauce all over the kitchen
ceiling.
w 'k 'k
If you are inclined to be timid,
it will be best to follow the advice
of one manufacturer, and not use
the pressure pan for cereals.
Used wisely, you needn't be
afraid of your pressure pan. And it
will certainly save you'a lot of time
and fuel.
