Good music is the form of entertainment in which it has least competition. But instead of mak- ing aking itself supreme in the provid- ing of high-class music, radio ap- pears to skimp that department of its usefulness. as a matter of fact, some of the best music heard over the radio is from records. Many people feel dissatisfied, especial- ly those who think that in the sphere of high-class adult enter- tainment the radio is falling short of its opportunities.— Toronto Star. Miniature Army A military museum in Paris has a collection of 19,000 dolls. Each is about two and a half inches tall, and clad in period uniform. The uniforms ;and veap tns are perfect replies of those used in the Napoleonic wars. The whole army of 19,000 -was made by one man—an Alsatian soldier, who fought under Napoleon, and spent the rest of his life making min- iature soldiers. e Canning Poultry Meat it Cm Easily Be Detue'Oir the- .-- Five Oen Fal Rules,;: oultry meat can be canned as easily as any other; product.

Redchsfnehrer Adolf Hitler of Germany might well have been cal- led "the forgotten man" during the faua'teeath week of the war. On the diplomatic front, Stalin and Mus- solini stole the show from hien; on the sea, the Allies appeared to be gainging the upper hand; on the German front, if reports •current abroad were true, Hitler was being outshone in political significance by Hermann Goering and the Rightist faction. . Even the rumors, that flew so thick and fast clewing the week, had him consigned to oblivion. One very persistent story claimed that Mussolini would slirtiy come for - weed with a peace proposal, accep- table to the Allies, by which Hitler would retire in favor of the Goer- ing clicnte after giving up all the territory he had recently taken (Sudetenland and Polish Corridor excepted); in return for his ser- vices as ambassador of peace, the report ran, Mussolini was to be gi- ven a special sphere of influence in the Balkans, Then --- the story oame to its ..logical conclusion - everybody would go to war against Russia. COMING ARMAGEDDON? With the crossing of Finland's frontiers by the Red Army, the form and scope of Europe's war changed. The focus of world atten- tion shifted from west to east, and more countries became directly im- plicated - Italy, United States, Scandinavia. The possibility of a conflict in which the whole of civ- ilization would be involved seemed much nearer than before. Would the showdown, however, come up there in frozen Finland, or would it be staged in Rumania? Would the League action against Russia pre- cipitate the struggler Did the pre- sence, reliably reported, of Ger- man officers in Finland mean a coming split in the Nazi -Soviet front?
