Valdez, suspicious that t h e game is crooked, surprises the dealer by drawing cards when he had been dealt an apparently winning pat hand, , his last words, Men who already had backed from the table scram- bled hurriedly across the big room as, the next instant on the echo of Valdez' challenge, Flash Conroy lived up to his name. With Valdez' last word hanging in the air Conroy leaped from his chair, and his six-gun was out of the holster, whipping up into line with the buttons on Valdez' char- ro vest. But Michael Valdez was ready for him, In that same breath he lunged against the houseman on his left, knocked hint head over heels into the other member of the trio, who also was on his feet now. Even as the two went sprawling onto the floor, Valdez swung around, and two long -barreled six- guus were in his hands. There was a roaring burst of flame from the muzzle of each gun, and Flash Conroy's gun flew from his hand, He made one small flicker of move- ment as if to shake the derringer up his sleeve down into his hand, but slopped on the instant as he looked ino the deadly bores of Valdez' guns. CI-IAPTER XVI Flash Conroy stiffened percept- ibly, His eyes flew open involun- tarily, then his poker face took command again, and the slow lids dropped to veil the surprise, Ex- cept for that brief moment of sud- dent jarring astonishment, his face did not change expression. But there was incredulity in his voice is he repeated: "Two, you said i" "Right," said Valdez. Jost those few words passed, but instantly, as if some undercurrent of danger had been transmitted, the watching crowd began to fade away front around the table. A sheepish grin quirked the lips of Valdez' nearest opponent as Con- roy dealt Valdez the two cards he had asked for. He picked therm up slowly and found a queen of spades and a seven of spades. The first house player drew one card, looked at it—and promptly threw his hand into the center of the table, The other gambler on the opposite side of the table picked up the one card dealt hint, barely glanced at it and followed suit, Valdez laid down his three kings, face up, and raked in the pot, stuffing the money that had been piled up on the table in his pockets. • • • Slowly he glanced around at the silent crowd, his lips grim, his eyes hard and icily cold. "I believe all you folks should know something about what has been going on here," he said, with a dagger -flash of his dark eyes at Conroy beside him. "Flash dealt me four kings and an ace, knowing that I could see that four aces would not be out against me, He had the seven of spades and the queen of spades on top of the deck. This hombre on my left was holding the eight, nine, ten and Jack of spades—which would have handed him a straight flush in any mail's language. And that, amigos, Is the kind of crooked work you have all been up against when you gambled here at the Palace." Then Valdez looked squarely in- to Flash Conroy's eyes, turned to face the gambler. "Conroy," he said between his teeth, "according to plan, a man flamed Raymond Garvin wanted you to relay the money I've been playing with to the 'big boss.' It was to have been his whack out of all the robbery of poor peons and settlers from the Eastern states now in I'aisatto Valley. But Gar - vin's dead now and won't be able to pass on more—any more than he'll be interested in what's hap- pened to his dinero," t $ Valdez nodded, his jaw harden- ing. "Ves," he repeated, "Garvin's dead. El Caballero Rojo paid him a little visit last night, so he won't be in on that new little thievery deal that has been planned—oh, you know all about it all right, You needn't look puzzled. "El Caballero Rojo has done me a good turn or two, as he has for many other people,, so when he wanted me to do something for him I welcomed the chance. I have been plumb glad to come here to- night, as he asked me to do, be- cause he is too busy himself right now to deal with snakes" Slowly, Michael Valdez rose, his eyes never wavering front the speechless gambler. He ben for- ward over the table to emphasize his words. "So tonight I'm getting you for El Caballero Rojo, Conroy, just as he got Raymond Garvin. He'll attend to your 'big boss' himself!" The very air in the Palace Saloon r-rked as MIcltaet Valdes shot out * *. Michael Valdez swiftly' backed away then, his guns moving in sweeping arcs as he covered not only Flash Conroy but all the other occupants of the Palace who were directly before hint. A curious smile creased the corners of his eyes and mouth as those eyes kept each man present in his range of vision, as though his gaze were centered on each one alone. "There are plenty of rewards on my head!" he taunted. "Perhaps some of you brave omen who work for Flash Conroy would like to take a chance on collecting them! If yott do, come shooting—I'tn warning you! I'd be glad of the chance—for this whole place has sort of a bad smell to it. I am aiming to air it out a little before I leave," Valdez appeared not to see Flash Conroy's all but imperceptible nod toward the bar, But a split second later, when the double-barreled shotgun came up over the mahoga- ny, he swiveled on the balls of his feet. His single gun roared, and the bartender who had obeyed his boss banged against the bar mir- ror, his hands plastered helplessly over his stomach. * 4 "Being shot in the middle is a plumb painful business, I know," Valdez drawled, "but it's no more than some of you hombres deserve. I hope you take the warning," His lips curled in a curious whistle, and the next moment Cl Ciclo was pushing his tray through the swing door, \Vith his gun still covering the crowd, methodically Valdez tapped the till behind the bar, then stalked over and relieved Conroy of the cash the gambler had on him. Though apparently unconcerned, he was fully conscious of the glow- ering looks, the muttered curses that followed hits as he moved swiftly. Yet he was fully con- fident that no man there would venture to match his gun skill with Itis own, not after the exhibition of fast shooting he bad just displayed. Moreover, none of them had ever seen Conroy bested before. The gambler's gun -speed had been sup- posed to be unbeatable, unchal- lenged. At last, while silence held the room, Valdez backed toward the door, his pockets bulging with loot, El Cielo followed him. "I'm giving the whole lot of you exactly ninety seconds to get out of here!" he snapped. "This hole of Satan is going to be burned to the ground. Or"—he shot one glance at Flash Conroy—"perhaps If you will say to me the name of your 'big boss,' se that I may Nil it to Ei Caballero Rojo, I might let you off—to some extent. Though Madre de Dlosl What El Caballero Rojo will say to that I don't known" (To be Continued) All Ready to Win—Thorough brushing is enjoyed by dignified Irish setter Sir Michael of Devon, entry of Mrs. Gertrude Drew in the Winter Fair dog show.

Barclay Warren The Proof of a Christian 1 John 4:15-21; 5:10-13; II John 4-0, GOLDEN TEXT — He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. — 1 John 5:12, "\Vhosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwel- leth in hint, and he in God." This is the basic belief of a Christian. Some modern teachers present Je..us as merely a great man, Then, of course, the miracles recorded of hint become fanciful stories. John is very emphatic. "\Vho is the liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christi? This is the antichrist, he who denies the Father and the Son." A Christian dwells in love, The Greek word translated love in this lesson does not denote mere human affection. It is tranlated charity in 1 Corinthians 13. It is God -like for "God is love." It is shed abroad in the heart of the lndividttal who be - Your Handwriting and YouBy Alex S. Arnott Which Would Be The Better Wife? Dear Mr, Arnott; 1• ant a widower with two children and I ant con- templating marriage. I have en- closed two examples of handwrit- ing of women with whom I am corresponding. It would be inter- esting to know what your analysis would be of them. * * * Answer: The first example is the writing of a self - trilled person who is domineering, as shown by the heavy thick writing and the "flying '1' bar" in the word "this". There is no doubt that. she would be insistent about having her own way with a good measure of sar- casm into the bargain. Do not ex- pect too much generosity from her as the words are cramped close together to reveal a nature that believes in the strictest economy and therefore is not likely to be very generous with herself or in giving to others. •* * $ The second script is ,a good example of broadmindedness and generosity. The spaciousness of the script indicates the willingness to overlook the faults and shortcom- ings of others. The generosity is revealed in the well -spaced words and the long finals. The writing is clear. The "weight' of the lines is light, a good sign of regard for the feelings of others and also an interest in spiritual thittgs. The open lctler "a" is a good indica- tion that the writer will not hesi- tate to be frank in all her dealings with others.' There is a good bal- ance between materialistic and spiritual interests in this example. Heves on the Son of God. This love may be perfected so that we shall have no dread of the judgment. Our mind is not perfect, hence our con- duct is not iherfect but our whole life can be motivated by perfect love, The child helping her mother bake, makes some blunders but all the while she is "helping moth- er." She is acting in love. "We love because He first loved us." Another proof of the Christian is that he has this God -like attitude toward men. We may not admire or wish to emulate our brother but we must love hint with a pure heart, This is natural for the Christ- ian. "If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he bath seen, how cat, he love God whom he hath not seen: "He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in him- self," He that hath the Son hath life," You need not tell an athlete that he is alive. He knows it. So the Christian has the witness in him- self, He sings. "Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine". John mentions one further int - portant proof. "This is love, that we follow Itis commandments," 1Vc have noted that a Christian has a basic belief, a pure love dispel- ling fear, and embracing his fel- low men. He has an inward assur- ance of acceptance with God. Fin- ally, his outward life proves he is a christiatt, He talks, docs busi- ness, etc., in accordance with God's commandments, The world knows, "There is a Christian."

TEEM -TOWN TOPICS C By BARRY MURKAR..= When Jack Miner died on Nov. 1, 1944, I was sorry for two rea- sons: One was that the world had lost a truly great man, and the other was, that he had died be- fore I had a chance to t a 1 k with him, Ever since I had first read his book, "Jack Miner and the Birds," I had felt that here was a ratan who was a friend of all people. Two weeks ago, while, down in the Kingsville arca, I called around 10 the Jack Miner Bird Sanctuary, The Canadian Goose was just start- ing to migrate to the south, and eve- ry day about 4 p.m, thousands of them stopped at Jack Miner's to feed. In the driveway to the Miner home was a sign,—"No Smoking— Your Friend, Jack Miner." Walk- ing toward the rear of the house, one could but think of the Hoary hours, days and years Canada's friend had spent here. Walking under these same trees, standing beside this pond and looking out front this sante observatory, watch- ing the geese land and take -off. Presently we met. Manly F. Min- er who is in charge of publicity for the Sanctuary; Wm, Edward Miner who is in charge of the farms that are used to raise food for the birds and Jasper Wilson Miner, the son who has charge of feeding and banding the birds. \Ve felt that there was another present too, One who had covered these same grounds many tinges, Manly Miner says his youngest brother Jasper is the most like his father. Three Sons Carry On The three sons give their time to carrying on the place that was be- gun by their late father. They receive no renuutcration for their efforts, but rely on the gifts of those who are interested in their place and their work. The sanctuary is open to the public from Oct. 1st to May 1st, every day except Sunday, which was one of Jack Miner's old traditions—to observe the Lord's Day. The sanctuary is closed dur- ing the summer months because the e'' birds are away nesting. 15 sten arc hired to help run the place during the summer and 7 during the winter. Each of the three sons was born on the property and helped with the work. They planted all the trees and actually it is the three sons who have made it the beauty spot it is today., ' While the boys were busy working, father was away on lecture tours to raise funds to keep the place going. It takes a sunt of $20,000,00 annually to run the, sanctuary which of course includes the feeding of the birds, taxes, paying the men etc. Geese at Rest Following an interesting conver- sation tvitlr'Man1y and Jasper, we went up to the observatory which has been enlarged this year to try and accomodate the thousands of visitors who flock to the sanctuary to see the daily migration, "Only this morning," said Jasper Miner, "I banded 240 birds, To band 3,000 birds, we must catch 6,000 in the trap," In other words, the Miners have banded so many birds down through the years that out of the Q,000, half of them are old-timers. It was a sight one does not soon forget to stand and watch hund- dreds of our wild Canadian Geese soar through the air and come to test on the huge lake, north of the Miner residence. At four in the afternoon, the men take a wagon load of corn to the lake for the birds. From then until sunset about 8 to 4,000 birds come in to feed From the first freeze-up in the north country the birds start to migrate. You will still have time to sec them if you happen to be in the Kingsville area, New Friends Sitting in Manly Miner's office, we couldn't help but notice the many pictures on the walls. The most of them were of Jack Miner, There \Jere framed newspaper art- icles about the sanctuary and it only took a glance to realize that many writers before me and many photographers, too, had visited this famous spot. - There is little left to say about Jack Miner. His world acclaim has gone before the public eye long ago. But there is one thing I would like to say in conclusion. I felt that with any visit to the Jack Miner Bird Sanctuary I had found several friends„ I felt, too, that I was wrong in feeling sorry when Jack Miner died—sorry that I would not meet hint. I did meet him that day at Kingsville -3 years later almost lo the clay, and if ever I am down that way again, I will go' in and ;cc Manly, William and Jasper Miner . .., and Jack Miner him- self.

It was enough to make Partner and I scurry around setting up furnace pipes. At least Partner did the scur- rying at first because he didn't think he would need any help as the pipes were partly assembled— there were just a few new ones to put in and elbows here and there to be connected. So I went on with my baking. But of course you never can tell with stove pipes. The pies were clone and my second sheet of cookies in the oven when a voice from below called, "Can you cone and help me down here just a minute?" Well, you know how it i3—cookies or no cookies, when the Man of the house is wrestling with furnace pipes and help is required, one has to run—but defiflitcly 1 So with hope in my heart but fear 'in my mind I gave what assistance- I could, first downstairs and then up, and racing back to the kitchen whenever there was a hill in the wrestling proceedings. The result was only a few burnt cookies on the last sheet. Not as bad as it might have been certainly, and to have the furnace going was worth a little trouble and inconvenience.

'When the farmer -owner told then they could have it for fifteen dollars if they would take it away, they jumped at the offer, and the township buzzed with the tale of their folly, While the Wells rang- ed desperately up and down the township roads looking for a piece of land on which to rebuild the cabin, the concession telephone lines shook with the laughter of the gossiping farm folk. Just when they had given up hope, they stumbled on the spot they had dreamed of. Once again the telephone lines hummed with word that the two city idiots who had bought that old wreck on the hill had now bought four acres of waste land by the preck, In The Owl Pen Ken Wells, a young Canadian newspaperman, tells how he and his artist -wife, Lucille Oillc, ngnvcd and rebuilt the old cabin and realized their dream of living in the country. They bought chickens, ducks, goats and bees, and none of these creatures behaved the way the reference books said they should. The behaviour of the goats caused roars of laughter, the chick- ens reduced them to tears, and the bees left them smarting. But they remained undaunted and now con- sider themselves seasoned farmers.

And the offices and stores in the city were almost as bad. Do you know, the more 1 see of Toronto the more I like the people. They are so friendly. Yes, that's what I said—"friendly." An opin- ion which I know is not shared by everyone. Maybe. it is just because I like people and I like to treat thein as people, not as human machines 1 ut there for the purpose of selling hats or streetcar tickets as the case may be. For instance, there is a little waitress ina restaurant on Bloor; she has a charming manner and acts like a hostess anxious that her guests shall be pleased, When I thanked her for such good and pleas- ant service, her face literally beamed. A tip under the plate is one thing, but I rather fancy personal appreci- ation can lighten the load consider- ably for over-worked little waitresses' I had quite a lot of business to do last week—in offices and stores—and I found the same courtesy and friendly interest wherever I went—in fact the conductor on the train ran past himself—hc gave me a ticket to Detroit! Perhaps one has to show a willingness to go the second mile in friendliness, and that may be something the other fellow recognis- es by instinct and responds to auto- matically. Daughter and 1 had our evening meal with a friend of hers and then we went to see "Dear Ruth"—a show which no one should miss if there is any chance of seeing it. It is the grandest comedy I have seen images —a show that the whole family can enjoy. And here's hoping we have a few more in that style. Perhaps we shall—who knows? It depends on public opinion of course—and be- cause of public opinion you may have noticed that "Dear Ruth" and -"Quiet Week -End" are in their sixth and seventh week respectively, whereas "Forever Amber" had a noticeably short run, By the way, we are anxiously awaiting the next issue of Maclean's Magazine in which Blair Fraser claims it is the farmer who is the biggest profiteer these clays.

Old Custom Is Revived to Get Food to Starving Europeans The "schnitzint, bee," which is to German -Canadian farmers what the corn husking bee of an earlier day was to Anglo-Saxon pioneers, bas been revived in Waterloo County, after an absence of 12 years, In the past Waterloo's schnit- zers had a mercenary idea in mind, but this time they're schnitzing for charity, The apples they schnitz into quarters for drying will go to the Mennonite Central Committee headquarters at Kit- chener to be shipped overseas to ease the hunger of Europeans, The terns "schnitzing" is actu- ally an Anglicization of the Ger- man word "schnitz," or "schnit- zel" (pieces). Also it's not far from the verb "schneiden" (cut) as pronounced in some dialects. Old -Fashioned Equipment Schnitzing bees were last popu- lar in this area when farmers 6' - thered at the farm of Walter Shantz, southwest of Kitchener, to prepare dried apples for Western Canadian farmers. When the de- mand for the product disappeared so (lid the bees, but t h e old- fashioned equipment is still on the Shantz farm, ready for use in aid of Europe's hungry. Of course many an apple ended up in the same small schnitzel in the intervening years, but that was strictly for home consump- tion and no bees were hyd. The idea was revived recently when Mennonites in the Pine Hill area decided to prepare dehydrated ap- ples to send to Europe. As well as being nutritious food, they could be nibbled on like cantly and would provide a treat for the recipients. From Far and Wide From far and wide Mennonites came to the Shantz farm. Josiah Baer of the New Dundee district brought McIntosh Reds. Joseph Good from Plattsville brought Pippins. Friends and neighbors from Blenheim Mennonite Church area flocked to the farm to fill the dry - house with schnitz for Europe. Four hand -driven peelers kept an equal number of men working in one building to supply apples to the schnitzers in the farmhouse. Peels are removed in one piece, then the apples go to women and men in the house. w'ho cut the apples into quarters and take out bad spots. Everybody Happy Conversation at the bees never stops. Women in white lace bon - pets chatter happily, usually in the Mennonite dialect, while the younger generation runs through other topics, with generous quan- FUNNY BUSINESS tities of Canadian slang thrown in, Older men usually discuss crops and farthing, Product of the evening's work is placed in long, wooden trays in the dryhonse, where a stove burns night and clay. Two days later the dried apples are sent to Kitchener to be forwarded to Europe, \Vhen the bee breaks up, the children are called in from the outside. While women prepare a lunch the girl's choir ' from the Mennonite Church practices for a school concert, with David Bergey conducting, using a par- ing knife for a baton. English as Spoken By Railroad Men "So we tied the pig onto 40 reefers, the head shack bent the iron into the train and after the brains gave me a highball from the strawberry patch I pulled the plug and we rolled out of the garden on the advertised," reports Newsweek Magazine. '\'his in theory and w.th a nice regard for railroad vernacular, is how a freight train engineer might say: "So we coupled the locomotive onto a train of 40 refrigerator cars, the front-end brakeman opened the switch into the through track, and after the conductor gave me a go- ahead front the caboose, we left the yards on schedule." More likely, however, it's what you'd read in the pulp magazines published for railroad fans. Few railroad men would express them- selves in such e. 1:fuent jargon. But the gaudy lexicon of the "high iron" has enough foundation in fact to be occasionally valid. State of Europe The current tone of discussion in America suggests there is a need on this side of the Atlantic to make it plain that Europe is not a derelict continent likely to prove a con- stant liability to the New World, but is the home of 400,000,000 mem- bers of the human race, endowed with a great variety of skill and masters of both an industrial and agricultural economy of signal im- portance to the world at large. It is to be h' p -'d, indeed it is essential, that Western Europe shall be con- sidered as a good investment rather than as a wreck to be salved or a political mercenary to he pensioned. — The Times, London.

It was useless to get Wally's telegram out of her bag again. She already had memor- ized it, Wally was passing through Chi- cago on his way to a new job in Hawaii, That was all Mariamne needed to know, Every penny she had in the world went into this sudden beau- tification, Every cent she had in the world except Grandmother's twenty -dollar bill. She couldn't break into that. Grandmother had sealed it in an old envelope and told her: "Emergency allyl .blind, notal It's never to be spent on anything nnl,'ss you're right down to hardpan. Nothing fess than emergency!" Wally almost kissed the heart out of her in the station, Then, "You're looking swell, Mariamne. Swell, How's the job?" "Oh—grand," she lied, ,'Forty a week only—but they promise me a raise pretty soon." They were walking now, shoul- der to shoulder, along the ramp. "And your new job, Wally," she was asking him. "Tell me about it," "Not 'much to tell," he replied. "Manager of a sugar plantation. Five thousand a year and tnainten- trce. They let me out of the old job 'Thursday and I clicked with this Friday." He had stopped before a flor- ist's window. Wally always ad- mitted he couldn't pass a florist's window. In New York every time they passed a florist shop, Wally insisted on stopping in to buy her a single orchid, "Gardenias are just as nice—and so fragrant." Mariamne always told him. "Sa-ay, yru must take me for a piker! An orchid for Mariamne, nothing less, woman!" Now he stopped, true to form, staring in the window. There was a display of orchids with the price marked $1.75. And a box lined with creamy gardenias marked, too. Special 25 cents each. "Come on," he said. "We'll have to have a—flower, honey," Inside he drew a twenty-five cent piece out of his pocket and flung it on the counter, "A gar- denia for the lady," he said, "A fresh one l" The clerk selected a very fresh one. "Twenty - six cents, please. Penny sales tax." Wally flushed. He patted his pockets. "—er— I — Mariamne, honey—have you a penny change? I—I—" Mariamne made a pretence of opening her 1 urse, She knew there was no penny there. But this was an emergency, She took Grandmo- ther's old envelope and broke the seal. "I'll need change, anyhow," she said to the clerk. Outside on the boulevard again. Wally was silent, red-faced. "C'mon, Wally, tell Alamma — all," said Mariamne quietly, "You —haven't a job." "That's right — you're right!" he exploded. "But I did have, Got It Friday like I told you, honey, but an hour later they got a radio- gram that the plantation had been flooded! No job." "And that quarter was your last cent. And you'd spend it on—rte." Tears were in her eyes. "Yes, just a cheap skate—that's rte," he admitted, "Orchid for Marianme, I always said. But I got down to a gardenia!" "A liar," she said accusingly. "We're i,otlt lints, Me, I have a job, yes. fourteen dollars — not forty—a week, Filing. And I've got nineteen dollars and ninety-nine cents, Wally. it'll buy the li- cense--" "\Vhat license?" he asked. ",Marriage license, dorling," she said gently. "You mean you'd marry me— and me with no job?". _• "Would II You mean will I — and—thank you, sir, yes. What's the matter?" "There's atlother florist shop," he said huskily. "This is a moment that calls for an orchid, darling. Gimme sonic money for it." ROLL YOUR OWN • BETTER CIGARETTES WITH 50 IMS..

Sports - And One Thing or Another By FRANK MANN HARRIS • ("A Sixbit Critic") While talking the other evening with a friend who is a veteran foot- ball referee—Yes, indeed, even ref- erees have friends, although not many —he came up with a rather interest- ing suggestion. "Our educational authorities," he said, "spend a lot of time and money on these Sight Sav- ing and Sight Improvement Classes for school children. I have an idea thahorll'(i-get. then( far better and quicker results, and at a big saving too," Having nothing better to do at the moment than listen, we told hint. to go ahead, * * 1 "Back in the days of railroading they used to have a saying that the quickest way to improve the breed of etltttic was to cross a cow with a C.P.R. locomotive. No matter what sort of animal it was to start•with, as soon as the claim for damages went in it turned out to have been a pure-bred bossy worth hundreds of dollars," he said. "And my plan would work every bit as miraculous- ly on the human eye," Although we had a sneaking notion of what alight be coming, again we told him to pro- ceed. * "I'd take every kid with weak eye- sight," he continued, ''Make a sports writer out of hint, and give hint a cnrd for the Press I3ox. That would do the trick sure. For while I've known plenty of you guys that write about sport who can't normally rec- ognize anything smaller than an ele- phant at a distance of six feet, just put you in a Press Coop and you are immediately gifted with sight better than Annie Oakley ever had, and she could shoot all the spots -out of a ten of diamonds at a hundred yards." * * * IIe spoke Cather bitterly, but we think he had reason for his beef. Rabid fans and players heated by the excitement of the game may have some excuse for seeing things as they would like then( to be, rattier than the way they actually happen. But when sports writers at a foot- ball game, situated anything from fifty to a hundred yards front some play, conte out with something like "The referee certainly missed that one," we sometimes can't help won- dering where they get that wonderful Vision. * * * DEFINITION—Dyed - i11 -The he - "- "Kneen Sports Fan— A aunt making $35 a week and behind with his room rent, lotto t('ill go without lunch for several days in order to 'chip in' to pay a $50 fine foully itn- poscd by a heartless referee on some big loogan getting eight thousand a year or better playing /jockey or base- ball. , * * * Just a little while before the Mus- tangs -Varsity game in London, we wrote something about the amazing manner in which the Mustangs had dominated Intercollegiate football lot the past few seasons—hinting that a great deal of their superior- ity might be due to the mental atti- tude of their opponents. Briefly,, cGill, Queens and Varsity played s though they knew they were eaten before the opening whistle ew. * * * What happened iu. London seems Thave borne out this contention. hough we didn't see the tie game .. , choosing to watch Argos give Rough Riders a pushing -round la - stead . , . friends who were present toll us about it. They say that Var- sity took the field in the spirit of, "Well, we've got nothing to lose, so let's have some fun with these guys anyway." And before the struggle had proceeded more than ten min- utes, it was the Mustangs who were wearing that look of "What's going on here shouldn't happen to a dog." * f * Altogether, the tie game was per- haps the best thing that could have happened to college football. Over the season's play, Mustangs were hest, and deserve the title. But from now on nobody's going to just take their word that they're the tops. They'll have to prove it on the field —which is just the way it should be. ?(fan 0' \Var' was undoubtedly a great racehorse. But a lot of the jocks on horses that opposed him, rode as if they had their eyes set on second money. * * * And to our younger readers we might exlpain that the pictures and descriptions put out regarding the recent opening of the Metropolitan Opera House were not—as far as we can learn—Red propaganda. But to a populace composed largely of people sprinting desperately to keep within reach of rising costs of living, the Reds couldn't have done better if they'd tried.

The transcontinental waited for the special to pass. But it never did. There was a roar *3 it - ploughed into the stationary train. In seconds coaches were ablaze, Shields rushed towards the wreck, ENTERS BLAZING COACH FIVE TIMES A child sat dazed in the flames. Shields dashed in and carried her out. When he came back he saw a woman shocked into help. lessness. He lifted her out and took her to where he had left the child. Face down in the debris there was another woman. Shields dragged her to safety, and then went to rescue a man who was badly injured. Back again he went. A man was pinned by the legs in'the fire. Shields released him and carried him clear. He then attempted a sixth rescue. But the flames made it impossible to enter the coaches, so he turned his attention to the persons he had saved, although his hand was gashed and bleeding, his arm swollen with blisters. He finally found a truck and rushed the five injured to hospital. We are proud to pay tribute to Gerald Shields of Dugal, Mani. toba, through the presentation of The Dow Award. THE DOW AWARD it a citation for outstanding hero' ism and includes, as a tangibtt expression of appreciation, a Poo Canada Savings Bond.
