General Alexander and Louis L. St. Laurent on the occasion of the latter's beim' sworn in as
Prime Minister,
Have They No Seoul?
Now that we have to keep an
ear glued to the radio again—this
time to keep up with what's going
on in Korea — we have become
acutely conscious that military, po-
litical and ideological matters are
not the only problems concerting
Seoul.
Now Seoul is a nice word for
writing—short, snappy, fine for
headlines, easy to produce on a
typewriter and generally not in the
same league with a word like
Pyongyang, But saying Seoul is
something else again, and in the
brief time thus far in which radio
announcers have had to wrestle
with it, it has conte out See-ule,
Sole, Sule, and no doubt several
other things,
Extensive research—in three dic-
tionaries—only confirms our prev-
ious opinion that lexicographers
aren't as authoritative as they're
cracked up to be. The American
College Dictionary (handy desk, or
paper weight, size) recommends
Salt-ooi, with the ao as in book.
Or, alternatively, Sy'oeooI, which
monstrosity it claims is the Korean
way of pronouncing it.
However, Webster's New Inter-
national (Second Ed. Lnabr„ Regu-
lar Style, Weight 16?.x lbs.) holds
out from its authoritative eminence
for Se -col, with the e as in end
and the on as in either fool or
book. But proving that Webster's
right band knows not what its left
is doing, Webster's Geographical
Dictionary righteously advises Sole,
or still another, Sah-tile, and makes
no mention at all of Se-ool.
That snakes six approved ver-
sions so far, and leaves the poor
radio announcer with nothing to
do except try to duck the issue,
which is what Webster's Geograp-
hical Dictionary does anyway by
hiding the whole thing under Keijo
(Kajo). It acids, however, that
Kyongsong is perfectly all right,

"Dear Anne Hirst; I feel like
packing up and leaving..I see no
future living with a elan who doesn't
want a home and children. We've
been married five years, and we
have neither.
"My husband
doesn't stay with
a job; he's al-
ways looking for
another one. He
never saves a
niciel for the
future. Ever y -
thing he makes
he keeps in his
billfold, never
makes a bank deposit. He even sold
his interest in a business, and now
just works there by the day.
"He gets angry at any little thing,
and goes home to his mother .. .
the last time, he was gone three
days. When I took ihirhl back, he
cried like a baby. He said he'd
never do it again; that he wanted
a home and children, and to prove
his love he'd even join my church.
"Since that time, he has never
mentioned any of these things!
'Except for these outbursts, he
never fusses. He is easy to get
along with, and is kind. I just don't
understand hint.
"When my Daddy died, he left
us enough to buy a hoose. I still
have that money.
"I am getting tired of putting up
with all this uncertainty. What
shall I do? We are both 25.
MRS. J. R."

War Canoe, Maybe?
The Ontario Department of
Lands and Forests says that a ques-
tion often put to its rangers is: "Is
there such a thing as an ideal list of
groceries adequate for a two week
canoe trip?"
There are so many complications
that the rangers, accustomed to
making long wilderness treks, hesi-
tate to answer it. But the depart-
ment says that one list suggested
for two persons on a two week
canoe trip—provided that fish wilt
provide the bulk of at least one of
each three meals a day—is:
"Flour, 20 pounds; baking powder
half pound; cereals, 10 pounds;
granulated sugar, 10 pounds; table
salt, two pounds; pepper, one can;
whole milk powder, three pounds;
white navy beaus, seven pounds;
bacon, seven pounds; tea, one
pound; coffee (concentrated), two
jars; dried fruit, 10 pounds; shorten-
ing or lard, three pounds; canned
butter, three pounds; sweet choco-
late, three pounds; maple syrup, one
quart; potatoes, onions or fresh
fruit, as desired,"
Essential cooking utensils are:
"'Medium sized double boiler; fry-
ing pan; coffee pot; saucepan; light
wire broiler; can opener; folding
reflecting baker; large spoon; cake
or egg turner; butcher knife; kettle;
deep pot with swinging wire
handle; plates, cups, cutlery, etc,'

We knew, on the evidence of
Jahns L. Sutherland and other
residents of the beautiful Limestone
City, that Kingston was the birth-
place of hockey, and the only fitting
place for a shrine dedicated to the
world's fastest sport, Then, some-

being Montreal, Quebec, Halifax,
Nova Scotia, and Nijni Novgorod,
Russia, with several polling -places.
still to be heard from,
• * :)
That Abner Doubleday and his
playmates down in Cooperstown,
N.Y. were responsible for the boon
of the world's greatest sport—to
wit, baseball (as if you had to be
told). But, as reported Isere re-
cently, some iconoclast has gone
and discovered that the beastly
English were even CALLING it
"baseball". long before we folks
on this side of the pond had any
sport outside of trying to save our
scalps.
And. so it goes. lip to a week or
so ago we innocently thought that
gambling was gambling, no mat-
ter whether it was shooting crap in
an alley or plunging on the Red at
Monte Carlo, or if you did it at
nine a.m. or 11 p.ni. But live and
learn; so we discover, on the au-
thority of Mr. George McCullagh's
esteemed Globe and Mail that the
Pari Mutuel machines, that are
quite O.K. at Woodbine, Dufferin
and other tracks where Mr. IIcC,
races his Thoroughbreds, would
turn into "iron pickpockets" if they
were in operation under floodlights
at Thorncliffe Raceway. (Railway
claims agents used to say the
quickest way to improve the breed
of cattle was to cross a common cow
with a C.P,R, freight. Some sort
of reverse action seems to be the
case here—the quickest way to turn
The Sport of Kings into a "sucker
game" is to cross a Mutuel Machine
with a Trotter or Pacer,)
* * :k
All of which is a lead -up to our
latest piece of disillusiomnent, and
it is, if we may be pardoned for
using such an expression, a honey.
In all probability everybody in the
English-speaking world that can
read words of more than two let-
ters knows that, hack on an October
afternoon in 1932, the great Babe
Ruth, in a World Series game vs.
the Chicago Cubs, pointed to the
exact spot on the outfield fence
where he was going to park a
four bagger, and then did just
exactly that very thing.
k :k *
In fact there's a High School his-
tory book entitled THE MAKING
OF MODERN AMERICA that has
already been adopted as a basic
textbook in certain Academies of
Learning south of the border. And
as the students avidly pore through
the textbook, accepting it as Gos-
pel we hope, one of the "historic"
pictures shows The Babe shaking
that gesture, before gaping thou-
sands,
* * *
But, according to a certain lir.
Root, the only drawback to this
pretty talc is that it didn't happen,
And Charley Root should know,
if anybody living does, because he
was the Chicago pitcher off whose
servings The Bambino took his
helping. From now on the tale is
Charley Root's, as reported by Bill
Bryson in the Des Moines Register.
• * *
Charley gritted his teeth so hard
you could hear then grating upon
his cigar holder.

"All right," he snapped. "I'11 an-
swer that once more — just once.
But the next time anybody asks
me about it, I'nh going to turn and
walk away, I'm sick and tired of it.

"So, once and for all—Ruth did
not point at the fence before he
swung, If he'd made a gesture like
that—well, anybody who knows

"Sure, he was making gestures
