Nazis Keep Norwegian sere
triots On Short Rations
It becomes increasingly evident
as more and more reports come in
from occupied Norway, that the
Germans and quislings are mak-
ing an effort to break. the resist-
ance of the "Homs. Front" by
keeping the patriots on short sit
tions. Members of the Nasjonal
Sanding (Quisling Party) always
have enough ;o eat, while their
countrymen who refuse to give
up their loyalty and patriotism
go hungry.
Special counters are set up by
German orders in ninny stores in
Oslo and the other large towns in
Norway—one counter for the Ger-
mans, another for the quislings,
and the third, mostly empty, for
the patriots. Other shops and
restaurants are set aside for the
use of the Germans only. By
plundering the larders and keep-
ing the No wegians to a bars
minimum, the Germans always
have enough to eat.
Already quisling leaders have
threatened that unless the Nor-
wegians come over to the "New
Order," blindly follow their great
"Fuebrer" Quisling, and work for
the "enlightenment" of the coun-
try (that is slave willingly for
the Germans), "the bread basket
will be hoisted even higher." It
is obvious therefore that the bribe
of extra food is being used to in-
duce these patriots to jcin the
Nasjonal Samling, and thereby in-
crease the strength of the party.
But even though food is becom-
ing more scarce, and Norwegians
are faced with a winter of suffer-
ing, they will not resort to this
method. and thereby jeopardize
the strength of the "Home Front."
Hydro's Part In
Our War Effort
I)r. Thomas H. Hogg, chairman
and chief engineer of the Hydro -
Electric Power Commission, said
"Hydro is the driving force be-
hind Ontario's war effort," adding
that Hydro has spent more than
$50,000,000 on rice construction
wince the start of the war.
As the result of various pro-
jects and contracts the commis-
sion has added 286,500 horse-
power to its capacity since the
start of the war and by next year
will obtain an additional 65,000
horsepower -from the Decew Falls
development on the Welland Ship
Canal;
Power restrictions put into ef-
fect September 20 will save •ap.
proximately 100,000 horsepower
(hiring the fall and winter, said
Dr, Hogg. Voluntary saving of
power is expected to save an ad-
ditional 150,000 to 200,000 horse-
p'OWe'.

An American soldier in Eng-

of the size of his country. "You

Modern Etiquette
1. What does it indicate when
a person misspells five or six
words in a Letter?
2. When a girl stenographer is
being introduced to a man in the
office, should she rise?
8. Should a guest always arrive
at a specified time, when invited
to dinner?
4, Isn't it discourteous for a
motorist to drive through a fun-
oral procession?
5, Should a person proffer ad-
vice to another without being
asked?
6. For what purposes is the use
of the knife permitted at the
table?
Answers

and laziness. Every desk should
contain a dictionary, and it takes
but a minute to consult it, 2. No;
it is not required. 3. Yes. One
should arrive at least ten minutes
before the specified time. 4, Yes,
this reveals an extreme lack of
breeding and thoughtfulness. IIe

re Men Sought
For British Army
Younger Workers To Be
Taken From Many Industries
Britain, exploring every last
nook and cranny for manpower
for the fighting services, has with-
drawn the deferment of younger
men engaged in trades which are
a step removed from direct war
work or which have became un-
essential.
Some 150 trades were affected
by the announcement of the Min-
istry of Labor and National Serv-
ice, headed by Ernest Bevin, that
men of two age classes. Under 30
who were previously regarded as
more valuable in civilian jobs will
be given medical examinations and
put into uniform.
The latest move in a thorough
comb -out of lnlessential Industry
will result in the calling up of mtitn•
under 26 at the time of national
registration who hold certain Gov-
ernment jobs, perform certain
types of aircraft work, or are em-
ployed in such trades as building
or cycle making.
Others in the same age class
who will be called up include em-
ployees of blacksmiths, Iron nd
steel founders, gunsmiths, forest-
ers, locomotive drivers, glass work-
ers, electricians and even mem-
bers of the custodian staffs of the
Houses of Parliament.
Men under 30 who will be put
into the forces include printing
operatives such as iinotypists, em-
ployees of all branches of boot and
shoe manufacture, clerks, office
workers, men in distributing trades
like meat, fish, groceies, milk and
coal, some workers employed in
food processing, full time civil em-
ployees, plumbers, gasfitters, rail-
way workers, truck drivers, sad-
dlers and, textile workers.
Test Army Clothing
On Mountain Top
Army officers and scientists Last
summer climbed North America's
highest peak, 20,300 -foot Mt. Mc-
Kinley in Alaska, to test Army
winter clothing and equipment,
the National Geographic Society
revealed recently.
The announcement said seven
of the 17 members of the expel!,
tion succeeded in reaching the
summit of the mountain, the third
time in history the feat has been
accomplished.
The expedition, made up of re-
presentatives of the Quartermas-
ter Corps, the Army Air Force and
the Royal Canadian Air ,Force,
established a testing camp at the
18,000 -foot level. The earn» was
supplied by parachute packages
dropped from planes operating out
of Fairbanks, and more than 100
items of equipment were tested.
Details were confidential, but
the party reported much of the
equipment made an "excellent
ehowleg."
Two -Year Harvest
With One Sowing
The Moscow radio recently re-
ported Russian scientists had dis-
covered a new variety of wheat
--- a cross between wheat and
couch grass -- which "can pro-
duce a full harvest two years
running without resowini." The
radio said the new type is immune
to blight and drought.
5O'MMM le Limit
On Bus Travel
Public Asked To Reduce Ali
Unnecessary Rail Trips
The Munitions and Supply De-
partment last week advised all pub-
lic vehicle operators in Canada
that. in order fuatther to curtail
the use of gasoline, rubber and
labor, no bus passenger may ba
carried more than 50 miles in
one continuous journey on and
after November 15.
Passengers may still be carried
On. a 50 -mile round trip, and the
(lireotive will not apply in localities
where no other "reasonably direct"
form of public transportation is
available.
However, no tickets may be sold
for any continuous bus journey of
more than 50 miles, unless it Is
made on routes approved by the
transit controller.
Where buses are the only means
of transportation, or where other
means are "hopelessly inconveni-
ent," exceptions will be made to
the general order, each case be-
ing judged on its own merits, the
department said.
The directive requires the dis-
continuance of any services whicr
unnecessarily duplicate other trans-
portation services, but routes which
supply essential local services will
be maintained.
It is expected that travellers go-
ing long distances now will be un-
able to choose between railway and
bus transportation, thus throwing
a further load upon already crowd-
ed railways.
Hou. C. D. Howe, munitions min-
ister, recently asked the public to
reduce unnecessary travel by rail,
and suspend conventions for the
duration of the war.

WHAT SCIENCE
IS DOING
BIRDS AND WAR
A curious effect of submarine
warfare, which is of more , import-
ance than a casual reading might
suggest, is noted by Roger T. Pet-
erson of the National Audubon
Society in the current issue of the
Audubon Magazine. it is that oil'
set afloat by torpedoed ships
brings death to the birds of the
ocean --: ducks, gulls and many
others. Several thousands of
ducks have been found killed by
oil off the Nova Scotia coast
alone.
Science Service, commenting on
Mr. Peterson's report, says: "Nor-
mally, swimmig birds' feathers, '
filmed with the birds' own natural
oil, keep their, bodies warm and
dry, no matter how cold the water
.they swim and dive in. But con-
tact with mineral oil breaks this
natural. protection. Cold water
reaches their skins, and ii they
do not die of chill and exhaustion,
pneumonia is apt to set in. In
any case, a badly oiled bird be-
comes unable to fly, and hence
unable to seek its food."
"011 slicks" on the water de-
ceive birds, To the birds they ,
have all the appearance of stretch-
es of smooth water. They glide
down for a rest. They have alight-
ed on a death trap. In other in-
stances, ducks will dive outside
the limits of an "oil slick" and
surge to the surface in the middle
of one of these oceanic oil fields.
Again the oil, mortal snare!
Sea gulls are useful in keeping
waterfronts clear of rubbish and
in other ways. Eider ducks are
valuable for the light, warm down
collected from their nests. It is
used for making quilted jackets
for aviators, seamen and others
exposed to severe weather. Eider
ducks, particularly, were seen as
victims of oil.
OW CAN 1?
Q. }low ran I keep apples
fresh?
A. If a little glycerin is rubbed
over apples, they will keep longer.,
The glycerin can be washed off
when you are ready to use the
apples.
Q. How should butter be meas-
ured?
A. Don't try to measure butter
for recipes by cramming it into a
cup, thereby wasting quite a bit
of it. A pound brick of butter
is equal to two cups and all the.
various measures can be very
easily figured from this.
Q. What should be used for
lubricating the egg beater?
A. Using glycerin, instead of
oil, when lubricating the egg
beater and meat chopper will
eliminate the possibility of im-
parting any taste to the food.
Q. How can I snake umbrellas
last lodger?
A. Umbrellas should be closed
and dried upside down. When al-
lowed to dry open, the ribs are
likely to warp. Wiping down with
a soft cloth also helps.
Q. Should fish be allowed to
soak in water before frying?
A. Fresh fish may be washed
off, but it should never be allowed
to soak in the water for any length
of time, as this will destroy the
flavor of the fish and cause the
flesh to be of a flabby texture.
India To Stand

Nawanagar, representative of the
Indian Council of Princes on the
War Cabinet, told Britons in a

tially the same as in peacetime—
"the heart of the Old Country is
still sound."
