And all places are alike to him, From the steel -walled turret of his tank he looks at everything he encounters with the unbiased, unembarrassed and unwon•1ed look of a mon who know' he can brush aside any barrier, surmount any obstacle. In the interests of the readers of this column I made an investi- gation into what makes a "tanker" tick a few days ago. Because I am not as young aa I used to be and, therefore, a mitt on the clwnsy side I have a few assorted bruises to report that the young, fit, well-trained tank man would not. Perhaps I'd better begin at She beginning. The Commandant of the Train - trig Centre said — his eye' may hsve been twinkling, I couldn't see because of the shine on hie glasses — "we'll have a tank brought round for you to look at." That was all right, But It didn't stop at that. When the tank arrived—all 80 ton' of it, a helpful sergeant poked his head out of the driver's hatch and said: "Shall I take the gentlemen for a ride, sir?" Bow Bowman of the C.B.C., was the reason for the plural. We LIFE'S LIKE THAT looked at each other. We lookon at the sergeant. There was no mistake about the twinkle In itis eye. We climbed in. 13y the time I had hoisted a middle-aged leg over the riot of the gun turret 1 seemed an awful distance from the ground, A slightly hyoturieul major, who roared with laughter Prom start to finish of the ride, advisee me to stand on the gunner's stool with my head and shoulders in the open. "You'll see more from there." I felt nioro, too. And every time I looked inside during the quarter of ea hour that we careeerd up hill and down dale there was the major, wedged in a corner of the gun turret, cackling horribly at my wild attempts to lessen the force of the buffets delivered by the plunging iron hippopotantu'. The tank man, to judge by my reactions, has a sense of power and invincibility as he advances steadily with a disregard for any- thing confronting him that no other soldier feels. Certainly I never felt It in France a quarter of a century ago. Once you have safely clambered out of the tnnk after your first trip you realize that you have never had such a feeling of safety in any mode of travel before. It didn't seem quite the same when the driver put on speed, hurtled down a steep bank, rolled a few boulders aside, took a ditch in stride, climbed tho side slope of a hill, turned in his tracks and charged down It again and headed straight for a tall and vary thick - looking true, After the first tree it was dif- By Fred Neher "Do you mean you're the guy that ordered this bed? 1 1" REG'LAR FELLERSTheTryout YOU'RE gETTING T00 FAT, PUDDINH AD! YOU BETTER STOP EATimq SO MANY ICE.*CREAM SODA,/, ferent. You don't dodge any more and you get that feeling that it doesn't matter what stands in your way. Then you have time to realize that your mobile fortress is giv- ing you a degree of safety you didn't know existed, instead of a copse of saplings such as we ploughed through you imagine a woods full of hostile machine - gunners and you know that their bullets will spatter harmlessly on the steel hull of your tank. You know, too, that the crew of well-trained "tankers" under battle conditions will he spraying tho ground ahead of theta with shells and machine-gun bullets at a far faster rate than the beet fire-power concentrated in any attacks in other wars. It all adds up to a feeling of jauntiness and by the time your first ride conies to an end you feel like tipping your hat to one side at d "wanting with an air." But that jauntiness ie an as- sured and sensible one, not a "devil -luny -care" attitude. Tanks and the myriad other cross-coun- try vehicles our boys are driving in the individual cit.i•r.cn's army of today ore not tuvtiug them into reckless drivers when they get on to the road in civilian cars. The effect is almost opposite. Once you get back into an auto- mobile you think to yourself, "this thing isn't armoured and un- hurtable like that tank I was just In—I've got to handle this more carefully!" Yes, they're a cocky lot—these "tankers!" And they have a right to he, They spend their fighting hours in cramped, hot, noisy quar- tors and feel like stretching when they get out. They have an exhilarating job, They charge across country un- daunted by obstacles. They carry the battle to, through and beyond the enemy. That sort of thing calla for light-hearted efficiency—and that same light-hearted efficiency guarantees a cocky bearing and a jaunty stride, But middle-aged newspapermen, though they catch the enthusiasm and experience the exhilaration, don't quite manage the jaunty stride when they laboriously climb out—they are too busy feeling for the bruises that the youngster doesn't get. No wonder the major was slightly hysterical—he knew what we would look like when we climbed down, Air Force Needs Radio Mechanics The Royal Canadian Air h'orce needs radio mechanics who have had some university training for work with the radio detector— the secret instrument which de- tects enemy aircraft. ?len enlisting for duty as radio detector operators will be requir- ed to sign 00 for attachment to either the Royal Canadian Novy or the Canadian Army. This is a new requirement, Re- gardless of the attadhmcnt, to either the navy or army, the per- sonnel will remain members of the air force. Operation of radio detectors is a highly specialized work and a mighty dangerous wound job. Detector personnel is just as im- portant to the ground forces as air crew is to the flying personnel for they play an important port in the protection of the land units.

On the eve of my departure 1 wish to bid farewell to all my friends in 11111111 turd to thank you for the many kindnesses shower- ed upon Mute. Chiang and myself. The briefness of my slay Inns not permuted me to tell the In. dint' people ell that I wished to say. I avail myself of this oppor- tunity to address to them this farewell message. It Is tut expres- elon of my high and tvarnt regard and of long cherished hopes for India, It eetnea from the depth of my heart. Since my arrive! in this country I found to my groat satisfaction that there exists among the peo- ple of India a unanimous del.er- ntination to oppose aggression. China and India China and India comprise one• halt of the world's population, Their common frontier extends 3,000 kilometers. In the 2,000 years' history of their intercourse, which has been of a purely cultural and c011tlnorCla1 character, there has never been any armed conflict. Indeed, nowhere else can one tlnd so long a period of uninterrupted peace hot ween two neighboring conntrles, This Is irrefutable proof that our two peoples are peace -loving by nature. Today they have not only Identical interests but oleo the atone destiny. For this reason they are duty bound to aide with anti -aggression countries and to fight shoulder to shoulder in order to secure real peace for the whole world, Moreover, our two peoples have an outafandiug virtue in common —namely, the noble spirit of selt- eacritice for the sake of justice and rightteoueuees. It le this tra- ditional spirit which should move them toward selt•ucgation for the salvation of mankind. It areae against aggression and in it is also this spirit which prompted China to be the first to take tilt the present war to ally herself un- hestitatingly w 1 t h other anti - aggression countries not merely for the purpose of securing hor own freedom but also for the pur- pose of securing justice and free- dout for n11. I venture to suggest to my brethren people of India at this most critical moment In the his- tory of civilization that our two peoples should exert themselves to the utmost In the cause of freedom of all mankind, for only in a free world could the Chinese and In- dian peoples obtain their freedom. Furthermore, should freedom be denied to either Chita or India, there could be no real international peace, A World Divided The present international shim - tin divides the world Into two` camps, the aggression camp 1111(1 the anti -aggression camp. All those who opposed aggression by strft•- ing for the freedom of their coun- try and of other countries should john the auto -aggression e:unp. 'l'here Is no middle course and there is an time to troll for de- velopments, Now is the crucial moment for the whole future of mankind. The Issue before us (1003 uol concern the dispute of any One man or country, nor does it coact, a any specific questions now pending be- tween nue people and snouts'. Any peuplo therefore; welch joins the uutl-aggt esslou front may be said lo bo cooperating, not with any particular country, but with the entire front. This leads us to believe that the Pacific war is the turning point in the history of nationalism. Tho - ,, (YJELL DONE,PUDDINHEAD, MY BOY f YOU' CERTAIN Y 010 A FINE JOB Ti -IAT TIME./ utothud, however, by which the peoples of the world could achieve their freedom might bo different from tvltat It used to ho.

What I have just snid is but an inadequate description of the true state of affairs as reported by Chinese and foreign eyewitnesses. India's Support Urged In those horrible times of say agery and brute force, the people of Chitin and their brethren peo- ple of lndin ehouid for the sake of civilization and human free- dom give their united support to the principles embodied in the Atr biotic Charter and in the joint deo- laration of twenty-six nations, and ally themselves with the anti - aggression font. 1 hope they will wholeheartedly join the Allies namely, China, (treat Britain, Aust erica and the Soviet Union, and participate in the struggle for the surv'iv'al of a free world until com- plete victory is achiuved and the duties incident upon them in these troubled Glues have been fully discharged. Lastly, I sincerely hope and 1 confidently believe tiat our Ally Creat Britain, without waiting for any demands on the part of the people of India, will as speedily as possible give them real political power so that they may be In a position further to develop their spiritual and material strength and thus realize that their participation iu the war is not merely old to the anti-aggresstou cations for securing victory but also the turn- ing point In their slrugglo for India's freedom. From tho objee- tiro point of view, I atn of the opinion this would bo the wisest policy which will redound to the credit of the British Empire. By GENE BYRNES PEC141., rott>t4Y SPLIT 1011 B. rat.

Niagara Fulls, Canada BABES ON BROADWAY Adapted by FRANCES BARBOUR from the MGM Picture Starring Mickey Rooney Synopsis — Tommy Williams, aspiring young dance artist from Wisconsin, is a member of the trio "The Three Balls of Fire". Working in a cellar spaghetti joint they meet the famous Jone• sy, assistant to theatrical producer Thornton Reed... She offers them an audition for a musical revue but It falls through. Tommy loses hope until he gets the idea of putting on a benefit show for the kids in Dornan Street Settle- ment, In order to sand them to the country. It will be a big pub. Deity boost for him and put him is solid with Penny Morris, his girl. But when Penny learns that it's all for selfish reasons, she walks out on him. Then Jonesy offers Tommy a chance to be in tho show, but when the Settle• went children give him a watch which they have bought with their nickels and dimes, In orderto show him their appreciation ho decides to stay and get the bene- fit on somehow. He and Penny make up and now he is on his way to tell Jonesy that he can't Dome to Philadelphia to be in the new musical. CHAPTER SD (Conclusion) Tommy and Penny burst into Jonesy's office a bit later and without even stopping to say "hello", Tommy told her of his decision. Ending up, he sighed. "It even sounds crazy to ale when 1 say it but . , , that's the way it is." Jonesy looked up from her desk. "Well, I guess I'll have to return these railroad tickets then." Her eyes were soft as she looked at him. "So you're turning down a great opportunity like this for a bunch of kids that you hardly know." Tommy ran his tongue over his dry lips. He was suffering visi- bly. A FAMOUS BRAND qcfen 's FINE CUT One of the largest herds in Canada in its time, as many u 14,000 head of cattle bore this famous brand of the old Oxley Ranch, founded in Alberta In 1002 by the late W. R. Hull. BRAND OF THE OXLEY RANCH 2 ISSUE 12-'42 c Then Junesy smiled. "Helping people can be pretty hard work, can't it? But don't worry, you'll find out it's worth while at the oddest times and the strangest places." She added abruptly, "How soon can you get your show together, 'Tommy?" "Huh? Our show? About ten days. But we need a theatre," Jonesy wrote out a memoran- dum. "That's no problem any more. You're getting the Old Duchess . . . and for free. It'll be Thornton Reed's contribution to the cause. He doesn't even have to know about it." Now, as 'I'onnny took the keys and the mutno he was jubilant. "Gee, it's wonderful, I don't know what to say," "Don't say anything," Jonesy returned brusequely. "Get start- ed with the show. And Make it good: Thornton Reed doesn't know it yet and he won't know until 1 get ready to tell hits but he's going to are your show in his theatre from the very front row." Tommy's mouth fell open. "Golly." Then he came to. "But Miss Jones won't Mr. Reed be angry?" She smiled back grimly. "It's very likely and that's why it bet- ter be good; or else 1'11 wind up in the country along with the rest of the kids." Opening night came, the house was full and in between putting on makeup Tommy shouted last minute instructions to the stage- hands and electricians. Finally, the overture started, Then, all at once there was Penny in her moonbeam costume and Tommy stared at het' 1n awe. "Gee, I shoulda sent you an extra dozen of roses." She smiled tenderly. "One rose would have been enough , .. from you." She went on, "Tommy once you told ale l'd be dancing on top of the world, Well tonight, I'm all filled up with things I've been saving to say to you but now that the time is here , . " The overture was starting. She dimpled. " . . I think I'll just go on saving 'em," It was almost time for the open- ing act. But where was Jonesy? Tommy had looked out and seen that she wasn't in the audience. Then he spied her in the wings. "Tommy," she said hurrying to him, "frit terribly sorry." He gulped. "You 11101111 Mr. Reed won't be here? But you ..'' "Yes I know I promised you but Tommy I just couldn't ask him. The poor guy is going crazy in Philadelphia. The show isn't doing any business, They're re- writing, recasting and on top of that he's twisted his ankle. 1 lord to sneak out of town myself." He closed his eyes. "Ohh." Penny had overheard it, "Never mint! Tommy we'll do the show and it'll be great and he'll hear about it, somehow, I know," Tommy nodded and got n firm grip on his courage. Then he turned to the boys and girls. "All right everybody. For the first time in years the curtain is going up on the Old Duchess Theatre. Let's slake 'em glad they didn't tear it down, Places." f • • Then the performance was on and from the very first Tommy knew their audience was with them. It was there in the air like electricity. The show was in the groove. Everybody was giv- ing and so was the audience, with both hands and whistles and cheers. The first act curtain had just gone down when suddenly a big husky fellow confronted Tommy back stage. "You Tommy Williams?" Tom- my nodded. "Wal, I'm Inspector Moriarty. And l'nt here to tell you Mr. Ziegfeld, you ain't puttip' on any more show tonight." The guy must he crazy! Then Tornniy bristled. "Who says we aren't Putting on a show?" 11oriarty was cruelly airy about it all. "The State tt' New York, the City a' NOV fork, the Board a' health and the hire Conumis- si0n. You can't lock people up in this fire trap. This theatre's been condemned for fifteen years." 'Pommy was dazed. Ile began to plead. "boot; \Ir. Moriarty you can't do this, you e;Ut't stop the tlhnty, ty little kids that nett r SIM' the Slllllir;ht. ." But Moriarty couldn't be mov- ed. "I know all about the kids," he shouted, fighting against !Its own hotter nature, "and I Lout it mother too but if that audience stint out of this Theatre in fifteen minutes I'll have to call the Eighth Precinct." Tommy knew then there was no hope at all. Quietly, he went t„ the footlights, explained things to the audience laid told them they could get their money hack at the box office. Within the allotted trine, they had filed out and 7'onuay sat in his dressing room with fenny, eat- ing his heart out. "Well," he said bitterly, "lee all did our best and where did it get us? Might out in left field. Sure, never mind yourself. Just help people, be Santa Claus, make sacrifices and if you keep on like that every day of your life you oughts be a big success when you're about a hundred and sixty years old." Penny was almost weeping, "0h 'i'o111111,y you don't 1110811 that." He cut i►1 savagely, "Yon bet I do. Faith, Hope and Charity, 'Well, you 1811 wrap those three up in cellophane and give 'ens hack to the Indians. From now on It's the old rules. 1'11 get an- other crack at it and when I do, watch out brother. 1 take any. body for anything, anywhere." He stopped as the door burst open and Barbara Jo tore in, "Oh Mr. Williams," she screeched hap- pily. "It's wonderful. It's mar- velous. Nobody took their money. And they all even gave some. They said that what they saw of the show was so good, it was worth it. Aren't you glad? Aren't you happy?" Tommy was slowly digesting this, when he heard a man's voice outside, loud in argument with Jonesy, "I never cane across such a thing in my life," be was saying furiously, "Jonesy you had a hand in this. I have a hundred thous- and dollar turkey in Philadelphia and what do I get? Fire Conunis- sion . Board of health . . , Police Commission . , , warrants ants for my arrest." "Pm sorry Thornton," Jonesy was desperate. "It's all my fault. 13ut 110 harm has been done , , ." "No harm," he 'wed. "1 get into town unexpectedly mai they treat rile as if I 'w'ere a criminal. I thought they were crazy, A show in my own theatre Itnd I don't even know about it , . " It was just at that point that Penny stepped up. "Olt Mr. Reed, I'm so glad you came," she said breathlessly, "They said we couldn't do our show because it's against the law to have an audi- ence. But there's no law against doing it for you. You're not nn audience, you didn't pay admis- sion." Reed crumpled his hat in fury. "Now she's trying to sell ale a ticket," "Oh no Mr, Reed," She was shoving hint out front and to a seat, at the sante time slaking frantic signals to Tommy. "Dear Mr. Reed, we spent weeks and weeks and they gave us just ev- erything. All we want you to do is sit." Jonesy was grinning, getting the idea. Reed, still bellicose, yelled, "I've got enough trouble without amateurs, I tell you." Penny was ready to bop hhn one if that would do it, "They aren't amateurs, they're wonder- ful, Just wait. In one minute there'll be more talent on that stage than in the whole town of Philadelphia." .And then, confirming her words, the Orchestra crashed into music, the curtain went up and the show started, At first it was slow, Then the pace picked up and as 'Thornton Reed sat there, viewing one net after another, he was the most en- thralled theatrical producer in' New York, The sure instinct that had put hint where he was told him he was looking at another miracle—a sure Broadwdy stage hit! Thornton'r approval aeemed to waft itself over the footlights and standing there in the grand finale, Tommy took Penny's hand. "Three words this time," he whispered. "1 love you." His face'was bright as'a torch. He had made his dreams conte true. He had found the magic of the Great White Way. And best of all, with Penny's help, he had done it with honor and deccn; y. He might be a sncccssrul a;to1' now — but he was 1 t'uade.sl of all, that he was a man! THE ENI) 1 BAD NEWS FOR AUSTRALIA les' r:41,"‘' TIMOk Dar'winV44 CAPE YORK ' ' p �,� 5Q\0 •.

TABLE TALKS By SADIE B. CHAMBERS Adventures In Economy Tho homemaker going to mar- ket with her basket over her arm to Aeek health and nourishment for her family has probably fewer coins in her purse than last year. Swollen budgets are a challenge to her ingenuity for it takes careful planning and clever man- ipulation to arrange wholesome but attractive meals when dollars are scarce. Wise choice must be made, as one ponders before attractive fruits and vegetables, The quart of milk allowed for each child need not all be fresh milk; evap- orated milk will do for many things in cooking. Cereals are of the least expensive foods. They furnish a large supply of energy for the amount of money invest- ed. Whole grain cereals are also it source of minerals, vitamins and bulk, and are necessary when the amount of fresh fruits and vegetables has to be decreased. From the standpoint of food value, fruits and vegetables are very similar. Vegetables may be made to serve double duty. Raw cabbage is a good source of Vita- min C. Oranges, onions, turnips, parsnips and carrots are all ex- cellent sources of food value and minerals. Dried fruits, peas and beans are just as nouriaing as fresh ones and are usually cheaper, Also they cost less in bulk than in fancy packaged varieties. Care should be taken to supply bulk in the form of whole grain oer- eals and the cheaper raw veget- ables. Bananas are one of the most nutritious fruits and when fully ripe are easily digested by old and young. Baked Onions For baking onions, choose a large mild -flavored variety. Cut the onions in half crosswise and simmer in slightly salted water until about half done. Lift the onions out and arrange in a bak- ing dish (if they do not stand up easily, they may be baked in muf- fin tins). Remove the centres without disturbing the outer layers. Chop the onion centres and add to the stuffing described below. Fill the onion shells with this mixture; cover and bake in a moderate oven for about one- half hour, or until the onions are tender. Remove the cover from the baking dish during the last of the cooking so that the onions will brown well on top. Stuffing for Four Onions tablespoon butter or other fat teaspoon savory seasoning Onions front centres, chopped pound ground meat (may be hamburger, chopped bacon or leftovers) cup corgi flakes 1 sprig of parsley, cut fine 4 cup chopped celery % teaspoon salt 14 teaspoon pepper Melt the butter in a frying pan, add the celery and onion, and cook for two or three miuntes. Add the ground neat, and stir until the juice evaporates ant, the neat browns slightly. Then add the corn flakes and seasonings and stir until well mixed.

This soction of the 1lndldings was not at all familiar to me, and as the broad marble stops were ascended the environment proved very interesting, On either side of the corridor loading to the Library there aro high plaques reaching almost to the ceiling and recording the names of the members of tie Government that at ono time et' another ruled the desthle8 of the Province of Ontario, The names of "Tho fathers of Confederation" aro also enshrined as well as the names of the gentlemen who have held the office of Lieutenant Governor. Thorn is also to bo found the names of officials connected with Province in Pre•Coufederation days. Farther along the corridor is an oil painting of ixun'a Secord, This painting is said to have an interesting and .somewhat unusual history, and immediately at the entrance to the Library is a bust of Sir Oliver '\iow-at ,sometime Premier and later Lieutenant Governor of Ontario. On entering the Library ono la confronted by two conspicuous sings viz 'No Smoking" and "Silence', It would appear there is not any diffietkity in having these notices obeyed. A peraot visiting the Library goes with the object of obtaining some specific Information and "quiet" is an important factor. Many hundred .square feet aro devoted to rho section but there does not, appear to be any too much space. Ono part Is given over to Books and another to the Daily and Weekly Newspapers of Ontario. To me the Weekly pliers wore very interesting, as practically every ono published in Ontario is on file, and Is arranged systematic- ally so that there is not the slightest difficulty 1n finding the paper for which one is looking, it \Y18 In this section that I had the pleasure of meeting Miss Edith L. 'Leckie, who Is In charge of the newspapers. Miss Leckie must be a most capable official as she has held this position under the regime of several Premier s. In speaking of the Weekly Newspapers :Miss Leckie said they are gone over and any article that appears to bo of outstanding interest either historic or throwing light on the life of any Community that article is "clipped" from the paper and filed. AH this has been going on for years the information t.liat Inas been and is 'being collocted Is invaluable as it reflects a most. reliable "close up" picture of the Community life of the different •parts of the Province. After .Jliss Leckie had explained the above, she asked 1110 if 1 would like to see the files on Blyth and the Townships of Morris and \Vawanosh, I thanked her and said I would certainly appreciate see- ing theta. In the Morris filo was a splendid history of the I aidlaw families taken from the London Free Press, and In tho Wawanosh filo an ac- count of the McGowan settlement taken from the same paper. It Is a great satisfaction to know that the utstory of these two ,settlements and the families comprising theta and which were and aro 8o favorab- ly ,known is safely preserved by the Province. However an even greater surprise was In store when the Myth tile was opened as it contained the articles that the Blyth Standard had published and for which I was responsible. It was more than a surprise. I was utterly amazed and so ex- pressed myself. '\\Hien asked why these ]'articular articles were preserved Miss Leckie said as mentioned they were considered of historic value and throw light on the Village of Blyth and that its the reason they were eelected and deposited for safe keeping and future, "A Short History of Blyth" written by Miss Doreen Phillips and which appeared in "The Standard" about one year ago will in future be found in these files. As I walked down the steps and along the corridors of the Par- liament Buildings I thought of tho phrase: "Some people aro born great Some achieve greatness +Some have greatness thrust upon them." This would appear to be a case whore "The Blyth Standard" as well as the people of Blyth, for whom I have such a high regard, have had "Greatness thrust upon then" in as much as some of their "Com- ings and goings" are considered worthy of a place in tho "Archives of the Newspaper Section of the Library" of the Province of Ontario in the Parliament Buildings in Queens Park, Toronto, Pte.

Stratford ice had been a jinx to the Beavers In their tussles with Waterloo all Season, and it was fig- ured that the Slaking would push the series to the five game limit, The Seaforths took the "cries 3 games to one, and in the last two games, left little doubt of their super- ior ability.

SMITH From practically any way you look at It, gardening should prove an excellent investment this year. It is patriotic to grow more vege- tables now, to put idle land to use, and it is good, sound com- monsense, too. Vegetables have been getting more and more ex- pensive in recent weeks and the authorities hold out no hope of bargains this Summer either. Weather was only partly to blame for the scarcity last Fall. The main reason was the increas- ed demand. In the last year, Canada has added sometihng like a million workers to its army of war employed, and still more workers are going to be added in the months ahead. All these people are going to need extra food, and fresh vegetables will play a big part in filling their requirements. And gardening offers another advantage, It is one of the best health tonics the doctor could order. A few hours out among growing flowers and vegetables will work wonders in restoring sanity and balance during these trying times of war. No Shortages The war has interfered with a lot of things in Canada, and while gardening is no exception, this Interference will be hardly noticed by the average person who orders flowers and vegetable seeds this Spring. Before the war, a con- siderable amount of the garden seed used in Canada was import- ed from Denmark, Holland and Hungary. This is completely cut off, of course, as well as practic- ally all shipments from Great Britain. To meet the usual de- mand, however, supplies have been developed in Canada and also a wider range has been im- ported from the United States. leedamen report no serious short- ages. There is likely to be a little change in price but they suggest ordering early, especially where a wide range of varieties and types are wanted. Vegetables are the biggest Melding crop one can grow. Not only can most lines be grown 'lose together but with some things like lettuce and carrots, for instance, a second orop can be harvested in a single season. Small vegetables like lettuce, spinach, carrots and radish re- quire rows only from 16 to 18 inches apart. Beets, beans and peas need from 18 to 20 inches between, while potatoes, corn and staked tomatoes must have a cou- ple of feet to thirty inches. Space may be saved with these if some- thing quick maturing such as let- tuce and spinach are planted in between. The bigger things will not need the full room at first and by the time they do, the early crops will be out of the way. Where one is using a hors(, garden tractor or a wheel hoe, of course greater space between the rows will be needed, No Crude Rubber For U. S. Auto Tires Leon Henderson told the Sen- ate defence investigating commit- tee that "not a single pound of crude rubber" would be available for new tires or retreads on the upwards of 30,000,000 passenger ears now owned by the ordinary citizen in the United States. The director of civilian sup- e, who le a War Production Hoard member, testified that this was the "most significant single statistic" among a maze of details en the rubber situation which he would offer the investigating group. Henderson said that present calculations of supplies for the United Nations "did not allow a single pound of rubber either for new tires or cannel -backs for any of the 30,000,000 -odd passenger ears in this country." A senator interrupted to ask an explanation of "camel -back," "That's the trade name for strips used for re -caps or re- treads on worn automobile tires," Henderson said. * THE * $N�w MUSIC � SONG * DRAMA A CONTRIBUTION TO * CANADA'S ALL •OUT WAR EFFORT * CFRB* SUNDAY8;30p n. * * y bra * O'KEEFE'S aEVERAGES LIMITED * RADIO BEPORTER DIALING WITH DAVE: Fred Allen NEW SUNDAY COMIC Fancy meeting you here! Fred Allen, after Nearly ten years in radio, finds himself back where he started, making Sunday "Fun - day" for his millions of network fans, coast to coast. Fred has his entire crew, tenor Kenny Baker, Portland Hoffa, AI Goodman's orchestra and the Mighty Allen Art Players in the Sunday night at 9.00 p.m. spot now, and there they are going to stay. But the good news is that the Fred Allen show cane to Canada with the change, find is now heard on a large network of stations, including CKOC in Hamilton and CFRB in Toronto. The time again --9.00 p.m, Sundays. • • • Another bit of headline radio listening news is the fact that an- other great national radio person- ality has returned to the air with $ brand new show, which is also being heard in Canada. Jimmie Fiddler, Hollywood's ace news re- porter, returned bo the air -lanes March 2nd, and is heard in Can- ada through a number of stations, including CKOC Hamilton, CKCL Toronto, CKTB St, Catharines, CFPL London, CFCO Chatham and CKCR in Kitchener, Fiddler's chats about the stars—his 'bell' ratings of the newest films, and his gossip of the cinema colony makes mighty fine, rapid-fire ?!a- toning. Fiddler is broadcast on Monday nights at seven o'clock. When you hear your local sta- tion announce a program as being 'transcribed', it usually signifies that the musical or other materia] in the program has been specially recorded for radio broadcasting. When announced as 'recorded', Invariably the program constitutes a blend of familiar records by favorite entertainers. Amongst the many great shows specially • M transcribed for radio broadcast- ing is the new "FLYING FOR FREEDOM" series, dedicated to the work and service of the R.O.- A.F. CKOC in Hamilton broad- casts the show Wednesday nights at 8.00 o'clock—CFRB in To- ronto Thursday at 9,30, and other stations, through the faaili- ties that transcriptions afford, are able to present the program at times moat suitable to their broadcast schedule, Irrespective of where you listen to the show, you will find it pulsating, dra- matic entertainment—an exciting aaga of the Air Forces of the Empire.

"The men testing them were told to pull no punches, and they didn't. After we used the guns, we stripped them down and inspected the parts, They were still in excellent condition despite the hard knocks they had taken.

Mark 8:35, THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Tinge.—Autumn, A.D, 29, Place. --Not far from Caesarea Philippi, far north in Palestine, under the great towering Mt. Hermon, a few miles east of the city of Damascus, Peter's Confession of Christ 27, "And Jesus went forth, and his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea Philippi": It is at this time that Christ turns almost en- tirely from speaking to the multi- tudes, the public, as 11 were, and devotes his attention to those who now believed in hint, .And on the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, who do men say that 1 am?" The question is signifi- cant. Jesus is not only conscious that he is a problem to men; He assumes that He ought to be. To His mind there can be nothing so important as that men should have received a true impression of Him and should think of Him as He thinks of Himself. Collection of Testimonies tib. "And they told hint, say- ing, John the Baptist; and others Elijah; but others, one of the prophets." This collection of tes- timonies i~ both to be commended and criticised, On the one band ik is a confession that our Lord had taken hie place among the great Prophets of Israel, On the other hand, these confessions failed to recognize Christ as more than a man. He was only a man among men, even though a Prophet among Prophets. This was as far as many people in Palestine had come in their con- vietions concerning Christ, and it it as far as millions of other people since have ever allowed themselves to go. The Christ of God 99, "And he asked thong, But who say ye that I am 1 Peter answereth and saith unto him, Thou art the Christ." Notice that our Lord does not event argue about the incorrectness and the inadequacy of the verdicts of the people which have just been re- ported to him. He does not try to show wherein they are wrong. Luke's record tells um that Peter acknowledged Jesus to be "The Christ of God." No higher title than this oould ever be given to our Lord, but one, namely: Son of the Living God. Peter com- bined them both. 80, "And he charged them that they should tell no man of hint," It was only for a short time that they were thus commanded to be silent, Soon they were to re- ceive If command to go every- where preaching the Gospel. Jesus wanted them to continue nea rto Him fo rfurther instruc- tion. Jesus Foretells His Death 81, "And He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be re- jected by the elders, and the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again." Jesus is brief in this first formal announcement, He is like one breaking a terrible piece of news to his dearst friends, The shock cannot be avoided but is softened as much as possible. The very thought of seeing their beloved Master a victim of the Sanhedrin at Jerusalem must have overwhelmed the disciples, —and not only because of their love, attachment and high hopes, but also because of their con- ception of the Messiah, which included the very opposite of suf- fering and being killed, namely earthly grandeur and triumph, Peter Rebukes Jesus 32. "And he spoke the saying openly, and Peter took Ilin1 and began to rebuke Hint." To Peter such frankness seemed to be in- discreet; such premonitions of failure were at variance with all his conceptions of Christ. The Master had manifested a lumen - YES, YES I I'VE READ MY PAPLR -r. tory weakness; It was his duty as senior of the Twelve to re- monstrate. He took the Long aside a little, perhaps in order to spare the Master the pain of public remonstrance. Jesus Rebukes Peter 88. "But he turning about, and seeing his disciples, rebuked Pe- ter, and saith: Get thee behind me Satan; for thou mindest not the things of God, but the things of me11." It was necessary that he should throw back tho temp - talon with indignation 811(1 even vehemence, with the rebuke of heaven set against the presump- tuous rebuke of flesh. Here as in all other places in the Gospel Christ is shown to be right and other men, when they differ with him, altogether wrong. 34, "And He called unto Him the multitude with his disciples, and said unto them: If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up leis orous, and follow me." At the very time when Peter would keep the Lord from going to the cross to die, Christ believes that Peter ought to be instructed on the HORIZONTAL 1 Largo American food bird. ?

His sufferings stand alone, incapable of repitition and needing none but each hos his own. Tho True Life 35, "For whosoever would save his life shall lose it; and whoso- ever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's shall save it." There is no such thing as ultimate loss in the kingdom of God. All personal interests be- come merged in those of the gos- pel. It is as a man loses himself in great and high things that he finis himself, 1111(1 as lie sacrifices his life in their behalf that he saves it, Only in such things le there any true life, 36. "hor what dolls it profit e elan to gain tho whole world, and forfeit his life? 37. For what should a man give in ex- change for his life?" By the whole world our Lord moans actually "all the world's wealth, power, pleasure, beauty and glory," What is a man benefited if, though he have all these things, he forfeit his life?
