BY ANNE ASHLEY
Q. How can I prevent deli-
cate -colored wash materials from
fading?
A. Before they are washed,
soak them in lukewarm water, to
which a few drops of turpentine
have been added.
Q. How can I wash straw
matting?
A. Wash the matting with a
sloth dampened in hot salt water,
using a handful of salt to a bucket
of hot water. Wash only a small
space at a time and wipe dry at
once. This also prevents it from
turning yellow.
Q. How can I remove the

almost fall off and the egg will

soning. Mix well before spread-
ing between slices of bread.
Q. How can I soften the
cuticle around any fingernails?
A. Ordinary table butter is
excellent for this purpose.
Bets on Russia
A delayed despatch advised re-
cently that Ralph Ingersoll, edi-
tor of PM, had arrived at Ankara
from Moscow on his way back to
the U.S.A. with a report on the
Battle of Russia. He told a
United Press correspondent that
the U.S.S.R. "cannot be beaten
and /nay, with .American and Bri-
tish equipment, turn the tide and
smash Germany.
"Loss of Leningrad, Kiev, and
Odessa wouldn't affect the Bus -
Sibiu war effort—that is if they
rose those cities --while it seems
Unlikely that the Germans ever
,sill reach Moscow."

The Daily Express of 'Lon-
don, England, Shows Why
British People Must Work
Harder Than Ever
Hitler has not called on Japan
yet. He has merely asked her to
get into position against both Sing-
apore and the Russians, She has
done so. She has reported that her
oil tanks are brimful, and if Hitler
gets more oil himself site means
to fight as surely as God made
little islands. Neither has Hitler
yet called on his conquered lands
for full war production, How long
do you think it would take the
factories of Germany and all Eur-
ope to replace the material he has
lost in Russia and give hint better
material, too? Sabotage, Victory
"V's", and R. A. F. bombs notwith-
standing? Hitler is nearer disaster,
but he is also nearer world con-
quest now than he has ever been.
There stand against him the sol-
diers of Russia and the British
soldiers of the Middle East. A..de-
cisive battle of the world has open-
ed. And still some British people
wonder wiry they are urged to get
into the war factories and the
mines and work and work as they
have never worked before. Your
weapons will be needed, every one
of them—if Hitler reaches oil.
Keep deed Type
For Emergencies
Learning Blood Group of
Family Members Advised
James R. Potter, managing sec-
r.111-, cf the Ottawa Blood Donor
Service, has suggested that every
( ! i:'.'n!w should keep a
r.;c^l(1 of tl.e blood group of each
of its members so there might be
no delay in case of emergency,
"If we are interested in air raids
precautions work we should at
least know the blood group of every
member of our family so every
emergency eau be met and many
lives saved," he said.
Mr. Potter said 3,900 Ottawa citi-
zens had offered their blood.
'But we need double that num-
ber," he said, "for a request has
been made by the government to
double the supply of blood serum
for overseas."
Canadian serum now was being
used for civilians in England as
well as members of the forces, and
a store was being kept in all parts
of Canada -500 pints in Ottawa
alone—primarliy for use of mili-
tary authorities. He expected the
supply would be placed at dispos-
al of civilians if necessary. There
was a supply in every military
centre and on every convoy at sea.

Ontario Plowmen Will Com-
pete For Valuable Prizes At
Branch Matches
Plowmen throughout the Prov-
ince are looking forward again
with keen anticipation to the day
of their branch match to compete
for some of the valuable prizes
being offered. A cash prize of
$10.00 offered to each of the
eighty branches by the Salada
Tea Company for the best land
in jointer plow sod classes is of
particular interest, for the win-
ners of this "Special" earn the
privilege of competing for valu-
able trips in a Special Champion-
ship Class at the next Interna-
tional Match. The good fortune
of two young plowmen from
Hornby, Ontario, in 1940 has be-
come the topic of conversation
among plowmen all over Ontario.
As a reward for their prowess
they were given a trip which took
them to points of agricultural in-
terest in the United States and
Canada, from Toronto to Van-
couver.
They saw cowboys, sheep -herd-
ers and miners in the "copper"
town of Butte, Montana. This
was a live, almost wild city filled
with the unexpected. In Iowa
they sat hi on a conference with
fanners and answered questions
about Canada and her methods of
farming. Every minute of their
trip was an education and they
learned many new methods of
!'arming which they are using to
considerable advantage on their
own farms. Gordon McGavin,
Vice -President of the Plowmen's
Association, accompanied them as
guide and manager,
If restrictions do not forbid,
a similar opportunity will be
given to the winners of the first
and second awards of. the "SAL -
ADA" event at the "Interna-
tional" being held this year near
Peterborough. They will also re-
ceive gold and silver medals for
first and second prizes respec-
tively. Twelve other cash prizes,.
ranging from $25.00 to $5.00 are
offered for the same event:

Two little toddlers couldn't re-
sist the temptation to explore the
newly built air-raid shelter. Just
as they disappeared inside a po-
liceman carne along.
"Who's inside there?" he asked
sternly.
For a few moments there was
a tense silence. Then, when he
repeated his question, there came
a reply in a shrill, nervous voice:
"Hardly anybody, mister."
For his gallantry a Scottish
soldier was given a decora-
tion. A week or so later a
pal asked him:
"And what does the wife think
of your medal, Sandy?"
"She doesna ken yet," was
the reply. "It's no' my turn
to Write."
Ole Olson came into a Minne-
sota village one day and inquired
at a drug store if they had any
"squirrel" whisky.
"No," said the clerk, "but I
can slip you a little "Old Crow."
"Aye don't vant to fly," said
the Swede, "Aye just vant to
yunip around a little."
Customer: "I've come back
to buy the car I was looking
et yesterday."
Salesman: "Fine. Nov
tell me, what was the one
dominating thing that made
you decide to buy this car?"
Customer: "My wife."
Three Canadian soldiers sleep-
ing in a tent in an English camp
were awakened by a terrific crash
not far away.
"What was that — thunder or
bombs?" asked one of them.
"Bombs," was the laconic ans-
wer.
"Thank heaven for that!"
chimed in the third. "I thought
we were going to have more
rain!"
Captain: "Are you happy
now that you're in the
Army?"
Recruit:' "Yes, sir."
Captain: "What were you
in civilian life?"
Recruit: "Happier still,
