Londesboro Girl Hit By Car Escapes Serious Injury Miraculously /escapin'g serious in- jury, little Betty Peckitt the six-year old daughter of Councillor and Mrs. Fred Peokitt, is rapidly recovering from an accident which she partici') ated in while returning from school last Thursday afternoon. The little girl had reached a point just about even with the cross roads north of the school when apparently being frightened by an approaching team of horses, she darted across to the opposite side of the pavement and directly into the path of a northbound car, driven by Jack Thyne of Middle- ton N.S. and at one time a singer in this district, Snowbanks are very high just at the cross•roadis, and being unable to go around the girl, Thyne applied the brakes and had the car almost to a stop when he struck her. He immediately picked her up and brought her on to Blyth, where she was attended by Dr. Maclean. For- tunately it was found that apart from a forehead laceration, which required ,stitches, she was not seriously hurt and s'he was able to return to her home immediately. It will be remembered that a fatal accident occurred at the same spot some three years ago, when Margaret Snell, daughter of Mr, and Mrs, Dph. Snell, was struck and fatally injured by a southbound car, The gate from the school grounds faces directly onto No. 4 Highway, and right at this time the high snowbanks make it very dangerous, as neither motorist nor •those coming from the school have even a fair view, YOUR LOCAL PAPER HULLETT COUNCIL All members of the Hullett Towr ship Council were present for th - regular meeting of council held in th Londesboro Community Hall on Mot day, The Clerk tread the minutes of th previous regular meeting and cpecis meeting, which were adopted on int tion of Councillors Pecl:at and Arn: strong. •Messrs, Henry Yungblutt and Sh 11eClinchey waited on Council in re spect to the school tax levied on Hui lett ratepayers in U.S.S.

(No. 33) THE OWLS' FOOD The short -eared owl should have a real welcome from every farmer since it is one of our most Votent destroyers of mice. It rt a bird of the open fields or marshes. The only place where 1 have ever seen it was Cataraqui marsh, near Kingston, where hd- wiit Beaupre found it breeding many years ago. These owls have late winter or spring roosts in groves of evergreen trees. They holt their food entire; regurgita- ting, the skin and bones as a pel- let when digestion is completed, So, when a roost ie found, ex- amination of the ground under the trees will often show many pellets and these, if collected and sorted, give a definite picture of the recent food of the owl. . What They Ate L. L. Snyc.er and C. F. Hope of the Royal Ontario Museum of Zoology have been studying the food of this owl for some time past. On a golf course near Toronto they found a roost of these owls in some ornamental evergreens, to which they resort year after year. In 1936 during April the observers collected a half bushel of the pellets from :his roost, From other evidence they, assumed that about 18 owls were present and that the pellets represented about. 1,000 meals of these birds. The next step was to sort out. and find what animals were rep- resented in these remains of the food. They did this by compar- ing the bones that they found in the pellets with bone specimens that they have in the museum. As each animal has characteris- tic skull or teeth it was a fairly simple job for one who knows hoar. Mostly Meadow Mice They found 1,181 meadow mice, 4160 deer mice, 1 house =house ani the remains of 15 birds. Figured in percentages the owls took, as food, during the month of April 72% meadow mice, 27';'( deer mice, the remain- der making up less than 170, To my mind, it shows that the short - eared owl is definitely bene- ficial.. The mice taken by these birds had been doing consider- ably- damage to young trees and shrubs. Property owners told the authors that mice wore a veritable plague in the vicinity that year. The owls helped con- trol this plague without cost to nlan. Maid of Erin By HOWARD L. TERRY I came front the land where the shamrock, green growing, Is the emblem of love in the • homes of the Isle, Where free was my youth as the wild waters flowing Through highlands, through low- lands, through green -walled defile. I've kissed the blessed stone in our dear Castle Blarney, I've paddled my boat on the waves of Killarney, I've searched the dark chambers of Fiugal'4 vast cave, I've climbed the high mountains, I've swum the blue wave. I've scaled the steep peaks which the boldest decline, The wild beasts subdued by these dark eyes of mine. My father had castles and riches untold -- I cared not for riches, the life they unfold, And many a one who had courted me long, Must needs be content with a smile and a song. I loved but the mountains, the moorlands, the sea, The roar of the ocean was music to tnc. The shadowy wood and the pin- nacicd height, The fast -racing waves and the bright stars of night. Oh, to live in the love of this freedom of mine, To gaze cn earth's beauty, to drink of it.= wine. And so all untamed the sweet clays passed away, But now, far tion home, are the raven locks grey, And memory nurses the sorrowful strain, "On! give me my youth and my Isle again." Retail sales of gasoline in Can- ada during the first nine months of 1940 amounted to 660,105,000 /lions compared with 601,191,- 000 gallons in the corresponding period of 1939.

THE WAR •WEE K—Commentary on Current Events TURKEY'S STAND KEY TO BALKAN SITUATION "The position taken by the Bulgarian government does not lead to consolidation of peace, but to extension of the sphere of war and to Bulgaria being Involved in it, In view of this, the Soviet Government, true to Its policy of peace, cannot render any support to the Bul• garlan government In the ap- plication of its present policy." —Soviet Note to Bulgaria, "Turkey will oppose by arms any aggression directed against her territorial integrity or her Independence."—Foreign Min- ister Saracoglu of Turkey. * 0 0 The diplomatic sensation of the week came when, for the first time since January 15, the Kremlin in Moscow made a pronouncement relative to the war In Europe which could be termed official. The long silence was broken with the hand- ing of a sharp note to Bulgaria— incidentally an indirect slap at Hit- ler—containing the information that Russia refused to give sup- port of any kind to Bulgaria's new Axis -dominated policy. Ankara Gives Closest Ear The Soviet reproof to Bulgaria had a variety of repercussions in the capitals of the world. London was inclined to discount its value as a tactor in the tense Balkan situation. Berlin inferred that Mos- cow "didn't understand." In Ath- ens, the Moscow move appeared to have been timed carefully to co- incide with British -Greek negotia- tions taking place there. (It could not fall to stiffen Greek resistance to the German "peace" offensive). But in Ankara the closest atten. tion was paid to the Russian note, Jt became strongly evident that Turkey was encouraged to take pleasures against any further Ger- man moves, feeling that it could couut on at least passive Russian approval should It make a firm stand. Would Turkey Fight? Turkey's recent pledge to "hon. or all her obligations" still did not make it clear what action Turkey would take should German troops not sweep towards the Dardan- elles; should German or Bulgarian armies not attack the borders of "Turkey -in -Europe" ... but solely were concentrating on the Greek frontiers in order to force a peace upon Greece. Would Turkey fight if Greece went under? Iii the ans- wer to that question lay the key to the outcome of the Balkan situ. Mien. Nazi Aims In Balkans The Nazi press last week declar- ed that the military occupation of Bulgaria was to prevent any British effort to "disturb the peace" in the Balkans, that is, to open up a new war front in that zone. Tho indications were that Hitler desired at all costs to avoid an upheaval Were and that he ex- pected to achieve his objectives without threatening Turkey direct- ly. Ilitler's immediate aim, as the have pointed out before was to bolster the flagging Italian war et - fort at as little cost as possible so that Mussolini could continue to keep a large section of the Bri- tish fleet busy in the Mediterran- ean, plus formidable British land forces, far from the scene of the Battle of Britain. (Phis occupation of Bulgaria secondarily served to give idle divisions of the German army something to do; and added considerably to Axis prestige in southeastern Europe and the Near East), For the present, the Dar- danelles and Suez could wait, Hit- ler's actions indicated. But the Bri- tish might move first, from Sal- onica, and scotch his plans by forcing him to accept the reality of a two -front war. Supremacy At Sea Unless she can maintain suprem- acy at sea, Britain must succumb. Such supremacy involves ability to keep the sea lanes open (the Axis presented a strong challenge in tho Mediterranean and the North Atlantic), and particularly to trans- port in safety the industrial out- put of the United States. Tho Roosevelt administration in Wash- ington last week was thought to have readied plans to give tate Bri- tish, following the passage of the Lease -Lend bill, what they so vit- ally needed; repair facilities in Un- ited States ports; a supply of mor - chant ships; and convoys. U, S. Takes Risks The United States In the opinion of most experts was expected to adopt a full war economy for the nation immediately after enact- ment of the bill, since each and every provision made to aid Bri- tain could bring war to the west- ern hemisphere, The U. S. would have to be ready for anything. Nevertheless a war incident was deemed much more likely to occur in the Pacific than the Atlantic. In the Far East American naval and air power had been mobilized with due consideration for even- tualities. And there, the U. S. was ready to fight.

St: Patrick's Day Games Many Are The Requests For Suggestions For Games Suit. able For St. Patrick's Gay— From A Number of Sources The Following Have Been Gathered RING TOSS: On a good sized piece of board• draw and paint a green shamrock at least a foot across. Itt each of the leaves drive three nails, long ones with largo heads. Have them well separated. Paint beside or under each nail a figure to be the value of the ring tossed upon that nail. Provide each player with three rubber jar rings from the kit- chen. Give a prize for the high- est score made when the rings are tossed from a distance of three feet cr more, SLIPPERY SNAKES: For this have a supply of long macaroni, cooked and drained. Provide each player, with a silyer fork and a piece of, macaroni. Line them• all up 'to. race across the morn. When a piece of macaroni slips from a fork, the player carry- ing it is out of the race, First one at the goal wins. ROCKY ROAD TO DUBLIN: Cut out of wrapping paper or cardboard small and large, ir- regular pieces, Lay them on the floor in as big a ring as possible and fasten each to position with a tiny bit of melted candle wax underneath. On linoleum flour paste will do the trick and is eas- ily removed afterward, The play- ers in turn try to run the "rocky road," without missing a single piece of paper or stepping on the floor around the bits. The one who completes the circle without error in the fastest time wins, FAIRY RINGS: Each player receives ten small brass curtain rings and a knitting needle. The rings are laid flat on the floor. At a signal, each player stoops and tries to get the rings on tho needle without touching them or the floor with the hands,. First player with all rings on needle wins. Any,player whose hand touches floois disqualified, PADDY'S PIGS: Green plasti- cine is provided for each player, and green toothpicks are passed around. Each one tries to model a pig. For variation, brown plasticine may be used, for niodel- itlg potatoes. IRISH SONGS: From a plug hat decorated with clay pipe and bunch of shamrock, each player draws the name of an Irish song or of a person mentioned in an Irish song. When called upon by the leader, each player is expect- ed to sing, play or recite one verso or chorus of that song before the count of nine. Failure results in paying a forfeit to be decided by the whole group. 1940 Grain Crops The third estimate of the 194Q Canadian grain crops in bushels is as follows, with the 1939 pro- duction shown for comparison: 1940 1939 551,390,000 520,623,000 380,526,000 384,407,000 104,256,000 103,147,000 13,994,000 15,307,000 2,044,000 1,307,000 1,527,000 6,848,000 44,072,000 Wheat Oats .; Barley Rye Flaxseed ..,. 3,189,000 Peas 1,355,000 Beans 1,477,000 Buckwheat 6,692,000 Mixed grains 43,133,000 Corn for husking 6,956,000 8,097,000 Should Test Seed Then Plant It That's the First Step In War Crop Production For 1941— Pamphlet Outlining Methods of Home Germination Tests Can Be Obtained From Ont, Dept, of Agriculture With Ontario being geared for the greatest possible crop produc- tion this year, tho first step in farm war production effort is to make sure the seed you plant tests high in germination, otherwise you may harvest poor. crops despite favor able weather conditions.

A few paragraphs In the local papers, and that is all, unless the person enjoyed national promiuence. We accept these fatalities as the logical consequence of the hazards. we must continually meet in this risky business of living. Fatal train wrecks and airplane crashes receive a prominence out of all proportion to the really few fatalities directly attributable to these modern modes of travel; Tho ingenuity of man has made It sater to fly than to jay walk across the ice -encrusted street ot a busy city thoroughfare. However, cortain hazards remain, and one of several possible ones turned tho westbound flight of the Trans -Canada Airlines plane into a tragedy at Armstrong the other week, a tragedy lu which 12 lost their lives, Previously, 81,000 Passengers had been carried by T.C.A. without In. jury of any klnu, A total ot 8,166,- 000 ,166;000 miles had boon flown in creat• ing this splendid record.

Well, the 1941 ruffles are very sophisticated and are design- ed to be worn by the fashion con- scious, The new ruffles are vertical instead of horizontal and aro ap• plied in rippling jaliot lines down the front of dinner or daytime dresses from neck to hem. They' call attention to the sling line of the skirt, and they create a pretty effect when a coat is worn open. EA113RO11)ERiES IN PANEL Some designers like to place the ruffle at the hack, extending from waistline to hem; this also makes the skirt look more sling and nar- row. This_season many designers have had the sante smart ide.tt about calling attention to the centre front of dresses and the up and demi line, especially in dinner dresses. There is. charming use of embroid- eries In slim panel at the front and for a lighter, more formal effect of neckline to heanline trimming, feathers or flowers are employed. Women Need More Arithmetic Hope Skillman, the pretty young head of Ameritex Com- pany (producer of cottons) and one of the few -women who di- rect the production and selling of fabrics in New York, says that American women will have to learn a lot more about plain business arithmetic before they gain equal recognition with men in business. "Women are woefully lacking there," she says. "Few know any- thing about investments, insur- ance or taxation — or can even make heads or tails of an insur- ance policy or tax blank, Few still really know anything about business — production costs, overhead and what a business can afford to do and why, If women want to rank with men in business, they will simply have to step out and learn plain busi- ness arithmetic," A Kiddie Frock or Play -Dress By ANNE ADAMS Here is a practical idea in '1'1V0 entrancing kiddie styles trade from ONE pattern, Anne Adapts offers loth a dress and a 81111 -style in her Pattern .4472, The panelled lines are easy to stitch and to fit, A sash may tie in a bouncing hack bow.

CHAMBERS St. Patrick's Day Menu It is true, that St, Patrick's Day does come in the Lenten Season, hut although it niay not be the gayest of gay parties it still niay be a very pleasant affair. As I write this menu I am thinking of a homey family dinner, Cream of Spinach Soup Roast Chicken Riced Potatoes Pear and Cheese Salad Celery, Olives and Gherkins Lime, Marshmallow and Apple Jelly St. Patrick's Day Layer Cake Beverage of Choice For your decorations there is a variety of choice. If simplicity is your desire, what is more appro- priate than a pretty white cloth with a shamrock for the table centre and maybe it is blooming with lovely white flower's too, as mine is as I write. If you should have a pale green tablecloth, the shamrock placed on that makes a very charming table. Now to go on with your menu. I am as- suming you will for this time use a good brand of canned soup. For that nice plump chicken, if you have never tried a currant - glaze, by all means do so. Boil during cooking with 15 cup red currant jelly diluted with mics cup boiling water. About 30 min- utes before chicken is done, spread all over with the diluted currant jelly. When chicken is done place on heated platter and surround with crisp water cress. In preparing your dressing for chicken — use ?a cup soft bread crumbs, ,6 canned corn and 1-3 sausage meat (pressed from its cases) — of course add a little onion, sage and 3 tablespoons chopped celery. For the salad preparation piece half pears (canned) on shredded lettuce. Fill cavities of peal's with a white cream cheese tinted green with vegetable coloring. Sprinkle over all some chopped parsley. Lime, Marshmallow, Apple, Cherry Jelly Take 1 package of lime jelly • powder; pour over it boiling water in the usual way. Have ready 1 cup of freshly made ap- plesauce, sweetened, which has been put through a sieve. When first mixture is lukewarm, add the applesauce and one-half cup marshmallows quartered; also one quarter cup maraschino cher- ries. Chill.

Ontario cows will,have to supply the greater portion of the milk needed to manufacture 112,000,000 pounds of cheese requested by Great Britain this year, says the Ontario Department of Agriculture, 'and Ontario cows : there- fore must be prepared for the job. • Many cows freshen with a reserve of energy so small that they are not cap able of the maximum production need: ed 'this year, Where possible it is ris connnended that good quality rougli:tgt be :fed to the freshening cows and grain feeding be practised to build up their condition. Horne grown grains are reason'ablr satisfactory for. conditioning, although some protein suppleanent is necessary if the hay is of .poor quality or the cows are fed largely on straw, 'The following grain mixtures are recommended to fit cows for lacta tion: (1) oats, 200 pounds and barley 100 pounds; (2) odts 200 pounds and 100 pounds buckwheat; (3) oats 300 pounds, barley 100 pounds and wheat 100 pounds; .(4) oats 300 pounds. buckwheat 100 pounds and wheat 100 pounds, The above mixture can' bo improved by the addition of a small amount of linseed oilmeal, bran or soybean oil., meal, Feed the concen'trate'd mix- tures at the rate of Two to Six Pounds Per Cow Per Day depending on con- dition and the price and supply of the feed materials, - Previous to calving and immediate• ly after calving, cows should be fed a grain mixture that contains more lax. ativo and cooling qualities and the following are suggested: (1) oats 200 pounds, linseed ollnteal 400 pounds and bran 100 pounds: (2) oats 100 pounds, linseed oilmeal 60 pounds and bran 100 pounds, Do not feed heating, constipating feeds .such as barley, rye or cottonseed ureal at freshening time.

THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time. --The bargain of Judas with the Jewish leaders to betray the Lord was entered into on Tues. day, April 4th, A.D. 30. The Lord's Supper took place on Thursday evening, April 6th, Place. --The bargain with Judas and the Jewish leaders was made in Jerusalem; the Lord's Supper was observed in an upper room In Jerusalem, though we do not know exactly where this upper room was located. The Passover Luke 22: 14. "And when the hour waft come, the sat down, and the apostles with him." 15. "And ho said unto them, With desire 1 have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer." Christ desired the support of the disciples' fellow - Alp for what lay before hint; also, be wished to comfort them with his presence—if they were assur• ed of his deathless love, they would firm comfort when the shock ot his death came, 16. "For I say unto you, I shall not eat it, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God." The Passover Least was, as we know, a celebratiou of Israel's great deliverance from the power and slavery of Egypt. Notice the hope and confidence which Christ here expresses. He knew He would be dead within twenty-four hours, but He also knew lie would live again, and, moreover, that, though the disciples would' be put to death, they would live again. Until the Kingdom Come 17. "And he received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves; 18. for I say unto you, I shall not drink from henceforth et the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall conte." 19. "And he took bread, and when be had given thanks, be brake it, and gave to them, saying, "This is my body which is given for you." Panda - mentally, the bread was broken so that it might he passed around, and partaken of by the disciples. But, of course, in breaking a loaf of bread, its unity is destroyed, just as when a body dies, it dis- integrates. It has often been point• W out that broken bread is sym- bolic of death, in five ways: the seed of wheat sown in the ground must first die before a new stalk arises; at harvest the wheat must be cut down; for flour to be obs tanned from wheat it must be ,ground in a mill; for flour to be paade digestible, it must he baked, wised with other elements; finally, bread to he eaten must be broken, •lf not with the bands, at least with the teeth — five types of death in a broken loaf of bread. f "In Remembrance of Me" , "This do in remembrance ot me," Literally this should be trans- latecl "with a view to calliug to mind, a remembrance of tae," Christ is here asking the disciples 4o remind themselves and others et the redemption he would win, by his death. The death of Jesus was to mean more to His followers than the emancipation from slavery in Egypt celebrated by the Passover. The Passover had done its work and served its pus - pose, and now it was to give place and make way for the celebration of the real deliverance of the Ins )man ramp. "This Cup" 20. 'And the cup in like manner after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood, ev en that which is poured out for you," As Moses, after reading the 'book of the covenant' in the and• , knee of the people, hall taken ' blood and sprinkled it on the people, saying, 'Behold the blood of the covenant which the Lord lath made with me concerning all these things,' so the blood of Christ, to be sited for the sins of lfls people, was to have a new and deeper purifying influence. This new promise of au inward lite of new obedience was to be trans- lated out of the region of promise into the realm of actual living ex- perience in the hearts of IIis people, the new Israel, through the shedding of the blood of Christ, the blood of new covenant or prom- ise. By the precious blood to he poured out next day, we have peace with God, We have cleansing from *in. We are reconciled. We are Washed. We are redeemed. The Betrayer 21. "But behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on She table, 22. For the Son of man Indeed goeth, as it hath been de. !ermined; but woe unto that man through whom he is betray,eyll 23. And they began to sties Ion among. themselves, which of them It was that should do this thing, 24.

And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles have lord- ship over then; and they that bave authority over them are call- ed Benefactors. 26. But ye shall not be so: but that is the greater among you, let him become as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve. 27. For which is greater, ho that sittetb at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am in the midst ot you as he that serveth." The Divine way to the throne Is tho way of self - emptying and sacrificial service, In effect Jesus said: I appoint auto you a Kingdom of that sort. 28. "But ye are they that have continued wth me in my tempta- tions; 29. and I appoint unto you a kingdom, even as my Father ap- pointed unto me, 30, that ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom; and ye shall sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel." Words such .as these, full of beauty and truth, carry with them an expression of gratitude, aasurauce of reward, positive con- viction concerning thdPcertainty ot the renewal of communion in an- other life with the Lord, and the promise of joy in the Lord's Pres- ence, intimate fellowship at home with the Lord sitting at table, where He is the host, RADIO REPORTER By DAVE ROBBINS "INFORMATION PLEASE -R" Someone once described Oscar Levant as a "character, who,. if he did not exist, could not be imagined" and that, for the wit of NBC's "Information Please" comes pretty near to being cor- rect. School ended for Oscar when he was still a bashful, inarticu- late lad of fifteen. Being a child piano prodigy, he had the benefit of instructions from top-ranking teachers. But his first job was at the piano in a New York tea garden, because playing popular music was the quickest way to pay for his concert education. Achieving success in the sphere of lighter tunes, he worked his way steadily upward through Ben Bernie's orchestra, the vau- deville stage, musical comedy and finally composing, when he wrote a hit called, "Lady Play Your Mandolin", In the meantime, young Le- vant developed definite agility as a conversationalist and wit, When "Information Please" be- gan, he was invited to NBC along with John Kieran and Franklin P. Adams, So quickly did he "click" he was made a member of the "Board" to take part on alternate weeks in the programs, which is on NBC red network Friday evenings at 9.30 o'clock. GOOD MUSIC Canadian music lovers are rea- lizing more and more their good fortune in being included in the itineraries of world-famous'.mu- sicians who have been driven from their homes by war.

'Twas a stone like a great • jewel, it was, and the old ones say that a man of quiet soul might rest Ills head there and hear the earth's mighty heart beating hotly ferninst his ear. A bit of a while back, as time goes in Eriu, the Icings gathered around the stone to worship. They were all kings in Ireland in those days, and their god was Cl'om, the giver of the tire. Close to the stone stood a ring of Druids, tall mets with gold brooches to their cloaks and gold crowns on their heads, Then came the Bards,' with their harps covered against the night wind, And round about, them were the kings, all looking to their Ard- Righ, Leary of the Golden Touch. A strange man was Leary, cursed for a year and a day with the pow- er to turn all things to gold, but that is another story, ON THE MOUND OF SLANE It was a spring evening. Up came the wind from the sea, blowing aoftly with the tang of salt, And in all the land was not a fire on the hearth, for it was the time of darkness proclaimed by the Arch - Druid, to be broken only when his swift messengers snatched a new flame from Crom's altars and ran to carry it home, Darkness was on the hill and over the plains of Meath, The kings stood around the stone, with an eye out for each other though it was the time of peace, They waited the coming of the fire, and they would be shuffling their feet, belike, for all the proud hearts in them, not being used to waiting. Then in the black night, across on the mound of Slane, came a light that waver- ed and steadied into burning while the altar of Crom was dead, THEY KNEW A BRAVE MAN Proud men they were, terrible in their anger, Their shields rat- tled, the iron broadswords came out in a flash. Leary himself . led them down from the high hill, swearing by the Sun and the Wind -and all the Elements to teach this estranger better manners, There was tumult and shouting all ovet Tara as the kings came to Slane. There stood St. Patrick himself, serving at his Easter fire and car- ing nothing for their uolse, "Whisht!" says he gently, "be quiet! 'Tis Easter, did ye not know?" And he went on with the service as if they had been shad- ows, Leary and his chiefs were bravo men and they •knew a brave maim when they saw one. They stood quietly, and when the service was ended they stood a bit more while lie preached to them in the bright- ness of his fire. Before many days the Arch -Druid himself was bap- tized, and although Leary never surrendered he provided the good saint with the fort of Trim, lest any I►'l•shman object to hie teach- ing, So the darkness was ended. It's the way the Light came to Irelr,nd, and that Light has never been quenched to this day, • Ban Favored On Margarine Ontario Dairymen Oppose Lifting of Bars The Concentrated Milk Produc- ers' Association of Ontario in a resolution opposing importation of oleomargarine said "there may be a grave scarcity of butter in the winter of 1942" because the On- tario provincial bonus and pre- miums for high -scoring cheese make it "more profitable to the basic producer in Ontario to manu facture his milk into ehceso stead of 1Rttter," 'file resolution continued: "Sonia 0" co ate .coal J, %~,(chi' ISM AFRAID THAT IN MY gXCITEM{:NT'---- € ti 'c `f . }i—`(:—.\!—,(0-,.-t�t industries are desirous of maim. factoring . or importing oleomar• garine into Canada and will un- doubtedly be ready to take advant- age of any situation that would assist in influencing public opin ion In favor of vegetable fats as a substitute for butter in Canada.'

Many Birds Spend Winter In Canada Observations Have Been Made on 111 Kinds Who Never Fly South While It is true that the majority of Canadian wildfowl and feathered songsters fly across trio border ev- ery autumn to winter somewhere south ot the Dominion, investiga- tion shows that many birds remain iu Canada during the season of ice ,and snow, Counts made by experienced vol• .unteer observers last Christmas at fourteen Canadian centres, scatter. ad from Nova Scotia to British Col. amble, recordN1 36,000 birds of 111 different kinds; While these ohser- vations provide a fair sample of the winter bird population for analysis, they represent only n small frac•' tion, of the total for Canada, The most abundant birt, life in the Do- minion in winter is found along the coast of British Columbia, the southern coasts of the Maritime Provinces, and In southern Ontario. The largest single report this win- ter came from Hamilton, Ontario, !where more than 11,000 birds were noted. Because the 1940 Christmas per• sod was milts and rainy across Can - ado, many birds that seldom stay when the winters are cold were observed. These include the robin. phoebe, meadowlark, white -throat• ed sparrow, killdeer, horned lark, blue -winged teal, gags blue heron. and blacki)ir4.

YARD AT REAIt There is a growing movement today to place garage, kitchen and service facilities' at the front of the house and to move living quar- ters to the rear. houses are being moved forward on the lot, allowing greater use of the yard as addi- tional liviug space. The uniform building line Is being 'eliminated, and houses are being placed so that each home will be separated as widely as possible from the neighboring dwellings. Improvements in the design of so-called' "modern" houses, new materials, and new methods ot building are helping to broaden the acceptance of modern styles of ar- chitecture, Why Easter's Date Is Changed Yearly The Christian Church Early Decided That the Easter Fes• tival Should Coincide With The Jewish Passove'1c, A Moveable Feast Many people wonder why the elate of Easter should ohango year by year, while Christmas is a fix- ed holiday, Tho reason is that the Crucifixion took place at the time of the Jewish Passover, which, due to peculiarities of the Jewish cal- endar, Is a moveable feast. The Christian Church therefore decided that the Easter festival should co• Wide with the Jewish Passover. Easter can come any day from March 22 to April 25, a range of fire woeks, FIXED BY THE MOON The method of fixing Easter is complicated, and would take too long to explain here. Easter Day is the first Sunday after the full moon which happens either upon or next after the spring equinox, 1f the full Moon happens on a Sun - (lay, Easter Day is tihe Sunday after. Owing 'lo the imperfections of our calendar, the spring equinox for . fixing Easter is, curiously, a calculated 'slate, and not the actual spring equinox.
