SUCCESSFUL NIGHT.
The Blyth Girls' War Auxiliary "Big
Meta", held in Agricultural Park, on
Wednesday evening of last week, was
a decided success, liven more of a
eaccess than the girls 'had hoped for.
When the proceeds had been figured
out, it was found that the girls had
i cleared almost three hundred dollars,
which figure alone bears out the
splendid responsive chord in the
( hea"ts of citizens of this district, in
all enterprizes that will help to defeat
llitlerlism.
At six o'clock the evening was start-
ed off with a softball game betwe€a
Brussels and Blyth girls, in which the
former won out. A good crowd was in
attendance for the game. Immediate-
ly the ball „nne was over booths were
enrown open for operation, and most
popular among those was the Bingo
Booth, which was kept busy threegll•
!out the evening with the exception of
the time spent on a short program.
Another boothoperated a ring game
which was also very well patronized.
Then there was the refreshment
booth, which is always a necessity on

greater success.

Tints — We are not exactly sure

experience of DavId's took place,
but we may locate it approximately
in the year 1035 B.C.
Place — Jerusalem.
This lesson is one of the most
wonderful in all the Bible, exposing
the terrible consequences ot uure-
pented sin, and the glorious possib-
ilities, because of God's mercy and
love, for such sin to bo forgiven and
put away, and for life once again to
be filled with Joy and praise and
peace,
DAVID'S REPENTANCE
The great sin of David's life to
recorded in II Samuel. A. year pass-
es after the killing of Uriah. Sud-
denly the prophet Nathan appears
before David. He comes as if to
claim redress for a wrong in a
humble life; rouses the King's con-
science by his simple tale of the
rich man and the ewe lamb,
II Samuel 12:13, And David said
unto Nathan, I have sinned against
Jehovah. And Nathan46,td unto Da-
vid, Jehovah also hath put away
thy sin; thou shalt not die. 14. How
belt, because of this deed thou hast
given great occasion to the enemies
of Jehovah to blaspheme, the child
also that is born unto thee shall
surely die. David Is crushed by the
sense et his guilt in the sight of
God. The sentence which he had
pronounced on himself (v. 5) Na-
than says will not be executed, al-
though David deserved to die as an
adulterer and murderer. Instead, a
long series of chastisements, begin-
ning with the death of the child, de-
clared the divine Judgment on his
stn,

Pianist Turns
Farmer
Dalies Frantz, eminent American
pianist, is enjoying his first taste
of farm life. He has moved to a
small ranch in the film colony of
Encino, where he raises Great Dane
dogs, practices with a rifle, does
garden work and lives the life of a
country gentleman when not at the
studio. Here we find him at his new
ranch playing a game of croquet;
with a prayer for renewal and
sanctification. It is supposed to
have been written by David after
his great sin, when the word of the
prophet Nathan had aroused his
conscience and brought him peni-
tently to the throne of grace. These
verses have brought comfort and
assurance of forgiveness, and hope
for a renewed life after some ter-
rible transgression to a great num-
ber of God's children:
Psalm 51:1,
Have mercy upon me, 0 God,
according to thy loving -kind•
ness:
According to the multitude of
thy tender mercies blot out
my transgressions.
2. Wash me thoroughly from twine
iniquity,
And cleanse me from my sin.
3, For I know my transgressions;
And my sin is ever before me.
The prayer for pardon is based
upon Cod's revelation of his char-
acter in Exodus 34:6,7. David here
insists that sinfulness does not eon -
slat merely in sinful acts, but in a
sinful 'and corrupt nature.

11, Cast rue not away from thy
presence;
And take not thy holy Spirit
from me.
1.2. Restore unto me the joy of thy
salvation;
And uphold me with a willing
spirit,
This beautiful prayer asks first
for a complete renewal of nature,
then that there may be no break
between the suppliant and God, and
thirdly, for a joy and willingness
to serve, which would naturally
flow from the granting of the pre-
ceding desires. Nothing less than a
new creation will make this man's
heart clean, Salvation is the gift
of a clean heart and a steadfast
spirit, the blessed consciousness of
unbroken closeness of communion
with God.
13. Then will 1 teach transgres-
sors thy ways; and sinneee shall be
converted unto thee,
NEW LIFE OF JOY
Psalm 32 also appears to have
been written shortly after Nathan
came to David with his message of
judgment from God, We have here
a record of David's experience be-
fore Nathan came to him, and of
the blessing that has come to him
with the consciousness of full for-
giveness and restoration to the Fa-
ther's house,
5, I acknowledged my sin unto
thee,
And mine iniquity did I not
hide:
I said, I will confess my trans-
gressions unto Jehovah;
And thou forgavest the iniquity
of my sin,
There is no figure of speech fin-
er than that of this psalm; God is
so ready to paedon that when man
makes u,p Itis mind to confess, be-
fore he does it, he is forgiven. God
does not wait for our formalities,
he deals with our attitudes.
Farm Notes .. .
THINNING APPLES
Research has shown that under
most conditions the size of ap-
ples may be increased and better
colour obtained by an artificial
thinning, states D. S. Blair, Di-
vision of Horticulture, Dominion
Experimental Farms Service. It
will not only go far in eliminat-
ing under -size fruit, but, by care-
ful thinning, much of the defect-
ive fruit resulting from insects,
diseases, hail and limb rubs can
be eliminated which reduces
greatly the cost of harvesting,
packing and marketing. Distri-
buting the fruit uniformly over
the tree will result in a more
uniform product which is of par-
ticular importance where box
packing is done. Thinning pre-
vents, to a very large degree,
breakage due to overladen limbs
and lessens the cost of propping.
It further tends to make the tree
more regular in bearing habit.
ITS ADVANTAGES
Thinning is practised shortly
after the "June drop" when the
apples are one to one and one-
quarter inches in diameter. The
distance apart to leave the fruit
will depend very largely on the
variety and general condition of
the orchard, In general, however,
only one apple should be left peg
spur or bud and the individual
apples on a branch should he
spaced six inches apart. All
blemished and imperfect fruits
should first be removed. In spac-
ing, the fruits that are to re-
main should be left on the upper
side of the limb as far as possible
where they will be exposed to
sunlight.
There are various techniques
employed . to remove the apples
from the tree. The most efficient
method is to hold the stem of

Deep Hearth Makes
The Best Fireplace
The front hearth—that is that
part of the hearth that is outside
of the fireplace itself—should be
not less than 18 inches deep. '
Logs break up when they burn,
and flaming embers roll in all di-
rections. A narrow front hearth
is dangerous in such a case, as
these embers may roll beyond the
hearth and burn the floor or rug,
Besides its practical use of a
fire protection, a wide hearth
looks better; it has more gener.
ous feeling, and largo andirons
seem more at home with plenty
of hearth in front of them.

BASIS OF AQUATIC LIFE.
Swarming in every body of water
aro millions of microscopic plants
and animals known collectively as
"plancton," Sometime when you are
near a lake or stream, dip up a
glass of water and hold it against
the light, or better still, look at ft
through a magnifying glass, Min-
ute specks will be seem travelling in
every direction, These are the
plancton animals and plants, They
are the basis of all aquatic life;
they turn the energy of the sun-
light into chemical substances that
can be utilized by the higher ant -
'mals; they tear down the bodies
and wastes of the higher creatures
into simpler compounds,
Plancton is made up of three dif-
ferent types of living creatures.
First, the plants, furnished with the
green substance, chlorophyll, that
has the unique power od turning
water and carbon dioxide into food
sugars with tho aid of sunlight; se-
cond, the saprophytes, the fungi and
bacteria, that break down the dead
bodies of all plants and animals into
simple chemicals that can be amine
Hated .again by other plants; third,
the animals, minute creatures with-
out backbones, that oat the plants
and saprophytes, turning them into
food far all the higher animals ot
the water.
Important in Conservation
In the conservation of our fisher-
ies resources the animal plancton
is a very important element, Near-
ly every freshwater fish feeds on
it while young and some of them
eat it throughout their lives.
The Food Chain
The food chain is ono method of
illustrating the value of plancton to
the fisheries. The large mouth
black bass, for instance, feeds on
minnows to some extent. These
minnows eat insects and their lar-
vae, waterfleas, and some other
plancton animals, or, If plant eaters,
they may feed directly on the plant
plancton, The insect larvae and the
animals of the plancton may eat the
microscopic green plants or they
may feed on the large water weeds,
The food chain is green plants, we
terfloas, minnows and black bass.
Here, I have simplified it greatly,
Itn nature, side chains and short
cuts, (waterfleas directly to young

NUTRITIONAL NEEDS.
A summary of nutritional re-

cently issued by officials of the
Health League of Canada, reveals
Biome interesting facts.
During the first twelve .months
of life, says the statement, the
calories required by the average
child increase from 500 to 1000
it day, and during this time the
protein needs of the child may
be calculated at from one -and -a -
half to two ounces of milk per
pound of body weight,
REQUIREMENTS INCREASE
From one to three years, the
caloric needs increase to 1,250 a
day for girls and 1,400 a day
for • boys. Thereafter, until the
end of the 18th year, there is a
gradually increasing demand. At
the end of the 18th year, girls
meed 2,500 and boys 3,600 cal-
ories a day. Fourteen per cent of
the total calories should be de-
tived from proteins, and one third
of the proteins should be from
animal sources.
An understanding of the basic
needs for a standard dietary is
of the highest importance at this
time, it was pointed out, and full
Information on the subject is ob-
tainable from pamphlets and liter-
ature which may be obtained on

Harvard Professor Tells of
Retracing Christopher's Oc-

After retracing the routes fol-

and studying his sea journals,
Harvard's Professor Samuel Mor-

lief that the discoverer was a
"master navigator and a shrewd
and accurate observer with a
keen sense of beauty."
FOUND HIS FIRST HARBOR _
Back from a month of sailing
the Caribbean in a ketch, Morison
said he had definitely found Col-
umbus' first New World harbor,
on the island of San Salvador, as
well as his second landing place,
in Northern Cuba.
The purpose of the Harvard
expedition, which last year car-
ried Professor Morison some 10,-
000 miles to 10 countries, was to
make a definite estimate of Col-
umbus as a seaman and a dis-
coverer and to identify definite-
ly the places he visited. The sea

Oil Cans Found
Danger To Food _
It has been brought to the atten.
tion of the Dominion Department of
Agriculture that many people are
making use of oil cans for the
canning of foods.
.Tho use of oil cans for food is
Uonsidered to be a very dangerous
practice since they are made of
Terne plate, a plating which is al-
most wholly lead, and very small
amounts of lead aro poisonous.
SPECIAL CANS FOR FOOD
Cans made expressly for foods
are entirely different and can bo
bought at a nominal price from the
hardware stores and mail order
houses. Years of research have also
gone into the manefactu re of cans
for canning food, with the result
that the inside plating is lead free,
This is done to make it impossible
for foods to become contaminated
with lead, and no cans should be
used for fruits, vegetables, meats or
fleh other than those made as food
Dane.
Oil cans aro not food cans and
should notbe used for any food pro•
duct.

Card Of Thanks
The Girls' War Auxiliary wish to
exprebs their hearty thanks to the
men of the Village who worked on the
grounds on August 14th, to -the busi-
ness men who so ,;onerously donated
prizes, to those who -assisted on the
program, and to all others who in any
way helped to make the Big Night such
a decided success:
in the decision, then we fail to see it.
Perhaps the Executive could enlighten
many around hero with an explana-
tion. There explanation at the pres-
ent time is that the League must have1
a winner declared by the last of Au•
gust. That may be so, but that still
does not explain their decision to
have the sudden -death fixture played
in Lucan, It looks like a dirty deal,
and as we don't see anyone else bol-
lerini;, it must have been Blyth that
got it. If the Blyth entry isn't worth
a square deal to the Huron -Perth, -Perth, then i
probably the best solution Is for the
local management to scan the horizon'
for another league to play in 'ere an
other season rolls around. There was o

"Business -as -Usual"
1940 Canadian National Exhibition Fills A More Important Role in
Promoting Empire Trade Than It Did in Peacetime — Agri-
cultural Show This Year of Prime Significance — Royal Mr
Force Quarters Can Be Seen on the Grounds
When the Canadian National Exhibition established a retard in 1939
tor vacating the buildings which had housed every branch of its exhibits,
administration and entertainments, to make way for arrival of thousand;
of newly -recruited soldiers, speculation surrounded its future. And, as
1940 got under way, the question became evens more audible: "Is the (1-
year•old unbroken pattern to be interrupted?"
One glance at the big exhibition now would answer any question. To-
day, leadership established in peace time has suddenly become leadership
in wartime. British exhibitors, eager to reach the eyes and care of Canad-
ian industries and the Canadian public, have been represented to a greater
extent than ever before. Government officials proved eager to see the
"'business as usual" sign; Canadian industry and commerce are giving
leadership through the .exhibition's tac+ilities.
R.C.A.F. QUARTERS THERE
Fortunately, tho program of n•ain•
Ing of Canadian soldiers, which had
recruited the wido resources of Ex -
}Illation park, proridcd that meat
in training should not spend fie
summer season in tho Toronto area.
Even before war broke out last
year, in the middle of the exhibi-
tion's program, officials of the De-
partment of Defence had held con-
ferences'with the exhibition three -
tot s,
ire:•tots, had outlined their needs, had
received in return the assurance of
the exhibition officials that the en-
tire Park and its big buildings
would be emptied for their use.
And at that time the Department's
officers stated that they preferred
o have no men in the park in sum-
mer, but would be moving out to
other camps.
As a result, plans for the exhibi-
tion this, year fit into the program
of the military, Royal Canadian Air
Force quarters alone now remain
in the park, and this is being seiz-
ed by that colorful branch of the
service as an opportunity to show
bow airmen are trained, It forms
an important exhibit or display of
the exhibition roster of wartime
presentations. Elsewhere, although
rendered sombre by the times, the
show follows the usual patterns.
Much of it is seeking to present to
the public the importance of war-
time economies and ntothods of
conforming to wartime regulations
and practices.
EXCHANGE OF FARM IDEAS
As an economic factor, the exni•
bitten will fill a more important
role than it did, probably, in peace-
time, This is reflected most vividly
in the livestock and agricultural
spheres. Entries for hundreds of
glasses (in fact, every class) are
ahead of previous years and en-
quiry reveals that this is because
agriculture faces new standards
and new requirements caused by
xevision of overseas demand. In
flacon -type hogs, for instance, buy-
ing of purebred animals promises
oo be heavy, with study of types of
bog -raisers rousing more interest
than in any other year. Thus the
exhibition serves as an exchange
at ideas and materials which affect
Canada's war effort. In countless
ether departments the Sarno, prin-
ciple is plainly seen.
INTRA -EM I'IR TRADE
Most important, however. is
the exhibition's role as a focus
through which Empire plans and
Ideas and methods con be Been by
Empire citizens. Empire trade has
become more vital to Britain's ex.
istence. Foreign trade means valu-
able exchange for purchasing war
needs. This bas been the theme of
British exhibitors in their discus-
sions with exhibition offieialr, and
it 113 obviously their goal in the
quickened interest they have now
abown in the exhibition this i'ar.

THE WAR •WEE K --Commentary on Current Events
"THE BATTLE OF BRITAIN"
BEGINS IN REAL EARNEST
The Battle of Britain began
last week, less than two months
after the capitulation of France.
reach day, wave after wave of
German planes crossed the Chan-
nel to bomb England; each day,
hordes of British planes soared
to battle with the enemy.
Whether or not actual invasion
by German land forces was short-
ly to follow remained the big
question of the hour. Military
experts were in disagreement,
Watching the targets at which
the German bombs were aimed—
advanced bases of the Royal Air
Force, and strong British coastal
positions — they declared that
the Nazis could be planning any-
thing
nything from a simple attempt to
break British civilian morale, up
the scale to an all-out air attack
on the country as a whole which
would precede or coincide with
the attempted invasion by sea,
Would Isolate Britain!
Several neutral commentators
of note expres.ed the opinion that
the Nazis' chief target for the
present was Britain's sea -borne
commerce (ports, docks, ship-
yar, dr, harbors, ships and convoys
wire bombed); and that the Nazi
cbjective was to blockade Britain,
in,tlr.te it, weaken it by destroy
ing its commerce and its con-
tacts with the Empire and the
wcrld, starve it into submission
if possible, or in any case weak-
en it by battering its ports and
shcres and breaking up its lines
of naval communication.
TNAT'S TWO CEi4TS
1. PUT IN THERE!
WHAT'S THIS • A
AACCKtT ?
"The Last Obstacle"
Mallory Brown e, Christian
Science Monitor correspondent in
London, called the new turn of
events "a sort of interim phase
of the war" during which, while
Hitler and Mussolini continue
their attempt to organize the con-
quered portion of. the Continent,
they prepare more drastic action
against the remaining European
obstacle to their domination of
the world — Britain and its em -
pit e.
Farther south, Mussolini ap-
peared to be coming into his own
as a first-class trouble -maker. All
signs pointed to an early grab at
Greece's Adriatic coast, and per-
haps a try for a slice of Yugo-
slavia, (The Italian Government
charged that Greece was supply-
ing oil, planes and other mater-
ial to Great Britain; that it was
cruelly oppressing Albanian min-
orities in the country). In Africa,
Italian forces, spun out from far-
off supply bases, moved slowly
deeper into British Somaliland,
were engaged in sharp conflict
with the British defenders of Ber-
bera, Somaliland capital.
Surprise For Italians
That the IL A, F. could spare
sufficient planes to homb many
strategic points in Italy and to
intensify the air attacks on Ger-
many, came as an unpleasant sur-
prise to Fascists and Nazis alike
last week. They were obliged to
realize that the 12. A. F. was able
not only to cope with the German
ds Th
"skykrieg" on Britain on a 3 -to -1
basis but also to carry on an
extremely effective air offensive
on the Continent.
Spain On Her Ear
No. 3 trouble -maker (Hitler,
of course, is No. 1), General
Franco, irate at British -super-
vision over Spanish imports, sent
a note to London demanding re-
laxation of the blockade on oil,
gasoline ani other contraband pro-
ducts, The Falangist newspaper
in Madrid, Arriba, after announc-
ing that Spain was now a "moral
belligerent", declared that British
action in shutting off Spain's sup-
plies of gasoline from the United
States and Rumania constituted
an "aggression and an act of
war."
Would Drive British Out
The Japanese parliament voted
last week in favor of taking all
available and effective measures
to drive the "British influences"
from East Asia . . , following
which Britain announced the with-
drawal of troops from the Shang-
hai area; along with forces from
northern China they were sent
"elsewhere" (to Hong Kong and
Singapore, presumably) . . . in
London Chinese Ambassador Quo
Tai-Chai received a sympathetic
hearing when he asked for Iii i-
tish assistance in preventing com-
plete penetration of French Indo-
China by Japan (Britain fears
that once Japan has a strong
foothold in Indo-China she can-
not be ousted from the French
colony, but will instead expand
her activities into Siam and pos-
sibly into British Burma) . .
U. S. Senate Split
In the United States Senate de-
bate continued on peacetime com-
pulsory military training. That
body was split on the question,
and President Roosevelt's Admin-
istration faced the hardest fight
since the days of the Supreme
Court contest , . , The two major
political parties were seen warm -
nig up for the November elec-
tion and clearing the decks for
action; the broadcasting compan-
ies were preparing to allow Wen-
dell L. Willkie to "fireside -chat"
as well as Franklin D. Roosevelt
. Disturbed by Japan's "Great-
er East Asia" policy, the U. S.
appeared during the week to be
seeking friendlier relations with
Soviet Russia, signing a new trade
pact;—Moscow, on the other
hand had some interesting things
to say about the United States:
that the U. S. is preparing to
occupy the western hemisphere
colonies of European nations as
a prelude to armed intervention
in the war, and that the war in
Europe has actually increased
A n g l o -American cross-purposes

400,000,000 Questions
Back home in the Dominion,
eight million Canadians were get-
ting ready to answer four hun-
dred million questions during na-
tional registration week . . .
members of the House of Com-
mons were on holiday, but the
Government, among other press-
ing matters, was occupied with
the problem of Western wheat
growers forced by lack of elevat-
or space to store on their farms
the bulk of this year's harvest (a
cash advance to farmers was be-
ing considered) . . Hon, C. D.
Bowe, Minister of Munitions and
Supply, declared that Canada's
output of planes should reach 300
per month by the end of the
year . . . news came during the

"'We have shout a hundred

Bob was inspecting his shoulder

would serve u5 in event the flash-
light failed."
'Lissa smiled up at him. 'I'Itcy
were alone in the cavern again,
but she was not afraid now.
"I should have had the flash-
light in my own pocket, of
course," he resumed. "But it's
kind of bulky, And I never dream-
ed of such an emergency as we
faced."
"Let's forget all that," she sug-
gested. "Let's—plan things!"
He caressed her, pausing to kiss
her twice, "Say, partner, you're
wonderful, an'en't you?"
"I want you to think so, any-
way, Dr, Barry!"
They walked very close to-
gether, with her head touching
his shoulder.
"What shall we plan?" he quer-
ied, "Home? Career? Happiness?
Where do you want to live, sweet-
heart?"
"With you."
"I know, but --where? New
York? Arizona? Timbuctoo?"
She smiled up at hint 'again.
"With you. That's all 1.ask,".
The climbing was not easy, Bob
remembered that they had to go
up a total • of 600 feet, and must
walk perhaps three tines that
distance because of the turns and
curves in the great underground
room, The floor was very rough,
too.
"We must be •over half way
up," he told her, after a while.
"Want to rest a moment?"
"No, But, Bob—Pm seeing
things again!"
"Yes? What?"
"I just saw a flush of light, of
reflected light, when your pocket
lamp wasn't turned that way.'

it was true. Two minutes later
they saw the pinpoint of direct
light gleaming from an angle
above then.
"IIELLO!" shouted Bob, "WHO
IS TT?"
"Bawb" , Bawb? Are you all
right? it is Honey Bee, Bawb?"
The two hastened to join her.
Her brilliant gasoline lantern il-
luminated a really joyous reun-
ion there.
There was touch talk. 'Lissa
thought she had never seen the
Indian's face show such anima=
tion. Suddenly she felt a surge
of pity for Honey Bee; the poor
girl thought herself in love with

'Lissa's hind skipped back over
the 3000 miles to New York City,
back a few years, to single out a
statement made by u university
professor whom she had greatly
rscpected, "Life has only one
real tragedy," the professor had
said. ''It is unrequited love,"
'Lista set herself to be cordial
to Honey Bee, but the cordial-
ity was not 'reciprocated, Appar-
ently only Bob existed to the red
girl. Bob didn't notice the, slight.
"Did you tell?" he was de-
manding. "I)id you tell the oth-
ers?"
"No," she shook her head,
"They think you went thee other

"Gone where?"
"Fie disappear, lie do not say
where."
"THEY'VE DISAPPEARED
"And Hodes Jones?" Bob was
intent on his questioning.
"He iss go crazy almost, look-
ing for you."
"i'll bet!" snapped Bob, grin,
nitlg. "Good old Hades. Well
look, Honey Bee, you're great,
not to tell. I'm sure glad, because
it didn't pan out anyway. I mean,
the cave is nothing but a big
hole, and if we hadn't gotten lost
in it we'd have been out that same
aftern00n, And if we—"
HA'I'RED IN HER FACE
Bob had to think fast. He
hadn't expected to meet Honey
Bee or It nyone up there, and he
hadn't fully prepared the tale he
must tell.
"—you see, 1 ought to be
kicked, but the fact is, Honey
Bee, I lost shy pack, I—I had
some candy, and a sandwich or
two, in my pockets, and had the
canteen, or we'd have been out
of luck sure enough, We just
found the pack a while ago. And
we're starved, too. There wasn't
much food in it, you remember."
"Why did you not conte back
out, Bawb?" Honey Bec was con-
cerned.
"011! Oh, 1 forgot, to say--we—
I dropped the lantern and we
were lost. Dropped it after I had
put the pack down somewhere,
It fell over a rock, the lantern,
1 glean, and exploded. Then we
couldn't find the pack again, or
our way back out, All my match-
es, even my pocket flash, were in
the pack."
'Lissa spoke up then. "He
means I dropped • the lantern,
Honey Bee. I did, 1 awn sorry, for
everybody's sake. it was inexcus-
able,"•
Honey Bee made no reply, but
her face underwent such a pro-
nounced change that even Bob
was concerned by it, The red
girl literally reflected hatred. She
glared at Mary Melissa in u man-
ner almost fiendish. 1t was ob-
vious that she silently accused
the white girl of negligence, of
endangering Bob's life, 'Lissa
couldn't fail to see her feelings,
but she could think of nothing to
do about it.
"Why, Honey Bee, of course it
was an accident!" Bob stared in-
tently at her. "Miss Lane's life
was ill as great danger as mills."
'Lissa smiled a little, "Yon
nlis'secl the point, Bab. Please let's
go on out,"
Till EDGE 01' THE CLIFF
Without further words they
moved upward and presently
carte within the white light of
day., First it also was a pinpoint.,
then grew to become the osve
mouth, where .Bob had labored
to remove the nicks days ago• It
was still only morning and the
Mull was pouring; into the cliff
vasllr area with great brilliance.
"1 was never so glad to sec
anything in all my life!" exclaim-
ed 'Lissa. She ran to the edge
and peered down, "And the vamp
—it looks heavenly, Bnb, Oh!"
There were sundry outer ex-
clamations and sighs of relief.
The two were, indeed, almost ec-
static with joy. Bola took ball
her hands 110(1 (NI1('01 in le cir,.le
with her, kid 1'ashioe, Then he
swt'ng her into u cl(se embrace
and kissed her, long and thor-
oughly.
Neither of them really looked
at Honey Bee, so intent on each
other were they, or they surely
would have observed ' the wild
jealousy that suffused the Indian
girl, The squaw was literally mad,
insane,
"Let's hurry down," 'Lissa
urged, happily. 'Come on, dear,"
Bol► climbed to the foot of the
first ladder, as customary, and
waited for her there, his )land
held up to assist her, It was, how-
ever, quite a long climb down, 20
feet nearly be that first narrow
ledge. Caution was essential.
'Lissa remembered the total.
height there was 600 feet, and it
looked 6000,
Above on the rim, Honey Bee
stood glaring, She was still glar-
sing when 'Lissa stepped onto the
ladder,
Suddenly the Indian girl saw
her chance! All the pent-up fury
in her came to life,

Peaches and Cream
—Then More
Peaches
Dessert planning these days
should not be a difficult problem
with all the delicious fruit on the
market,' from which to chocsc,
Peaches are always one of the
most popular, Perhaps that is
why something which rates high
is called "a peach."
Served with cream and sugar,
peaches that are perfectly ripe
and richly flavored are a dish fit
for a king, Fresh peach pie and
peach shortcake are .treats ex-
pected by the family each year,
now that the peach season is in
full swing. Serve these often.
The rest of the dinner should
be rather light since either the
pie or the shortcake is rather u
hearty dessert. For instance you
might start the meal with tomato
juice Mixed with a' little lemon
juice, Then serve broiled or fried
fish, with lima beans and a c'u-
cumber salad, The market will
have to, guide you regarding the
fish, but we hope it will be brook
trout. In preparing, sprinkle the
fish lightly with lepton juice, roll
in a mixture of flour and corn-
meal (equal parts) and broil or
fry crisp, first on one side then
on the other, After the fish is
on the platter sprinkle with salt
and pepper.
PEACH PIE
10 perfectly ripe peaches, 3
eggs, 1 cup sugar, ); cup flour,
3 tablespoons butter, 2 table-
spoons butter, ?e. teaspoon salt,
3 tablespoons water,
Scald the peaches, slip eff the
skins and cut in halves. Sift salt
and flour and work in lard or
butter or equal quantities of
each, It is best to work in with
pastry blender. Add water (very
cold) a few drops at a time, cut-
ting it in with a broad bladed
knife, Shape into a round flet
cake, roll on a lightly floured
borad, roll into a sheet. Fit into
a nine inch pan, which has been
greased. Pink the edges and fill
with the ,peach halves cut side
up. Beat eggs until light, add
sugar and a sprinkle of nutmeg;
pour over peaches and bake in n
hot oven for 12 minutes, Reduce
heat and cook until peaches are
tender, about 30 minutes longer.
PEACH SHORTCAKE
2 cups pastry flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
?; teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons butter or lard
cup milk
10 peaches
4 teaspoon nutmeg
Sift flour once; measure a►ud
add baking powder and salt; sift
again into nixing bowl, Cut in
shortening with a pastry blender;
odd milk, cutting in with broad
handled knife. Turn on to a
slightly floured board and knead
very lightly with the tips of the
fingers, which must be well flour-
ed, Divide dough into halves and
roll gently into two rounds not

THOSE FAMOUS IN IIISTORY
This being the day of the woman,
librarians In the city of Toronto
thought it would be well to focus
some attention on the exploits of
women famous In history, those fa-
mous In to -day's life being pretty
well known through the 010(1111m nl
the press.
Accordingly, they dug into statis-
tics, reference books, encycloped-
ias and private opinion and emerg-
ed with the following:
The three things for which wo-
men became famous In history
were, in order of precedence, beau-
ty, power and goodness, They have
no explanation, they say, why the
goodness should be last, but there
it is,
BIS.%UTY, POWER, GOODNESS
Citing statistics, they explain the
woman has been relatively slow in
emerging from obscurity. Of the 25
billion people who have seen Tho
light of day since the beginning of
the world, only 5,000 have been im-
portant enough to be celebrated in
histories, encyclopedias, and "Who's
Who", Of these 5,000, only 200 were
women, Blographlos and histories

that, but the beauty experts too,
this year. 1'00 much tall is out.
"It's a case of some folk being
allergic to sunshine," says Ann Ile•
lafield, a New York beauty director.
She thinks sun has caused more
damage to beauty than anything
e•Ise in recent years.
IT DRIES THE SKIN
"No woman over 25 should sun
tan from the neck up," 18 Miss De -
admonition. That's becaulo
S ou drles the skin, resulting in,
wrinkle$, She adds that any woman
who is more than 40 who suntans
nor body is adding three years to
her looks.
If you still want tan, it's well to
sun only about five minutes on
your back and five minutes in front
each day, The rest of the day stay
out orf the direct sunlight. Wear a
large sunhat, Carry a gay parasol
or w(sar a good-looking beach robe.
