CHAPTER XI
(Continued from last week)
"Out of circulation" she an•
swered truthfully, and was glad she
did not have to tell a lie to a plan
who was about to die. "It will never
tempt anyone else again,"
"In the ocean?" Isis voice was au
angry croak and Honey realized
that, had he been able to reach her,
he probably would have choked
the life from her body. Even know-
ing that he could not move to harm
her, she still had a wild desire to
push back from hull.
"That's as good an answer as
any," she told him,
He gave a rasping laugh that was
ugly to hear and she covered her
ears for a set.ond to hsut it 'out.
Then he spoke again.
"Too bad your friend Brewster
couldn't know that you stole the
stone front Mrs, Sylvester, I am
sorry now I didn't tell hint that
night before 1 hit hint over the
hied."
"Ohl" honey sucked in her
breath painfully as she understood
what had happened to Dan in the
apartment. Then she said: "He
knows. I told him. I went there
to give hint the diamond:" There
was pleasure in being able to admit
that knowledge to Joe even in his
critical condition.
There was a gasp front hint, both
of surprise and pain. He waited to
draw a deep breath and she heard
hint struggle hard to get it. She
closed her eyes as bitter tears
spilled over her lashes. Joe had a
few good points that she rcmenl-
bered now as she sat there watching
hint -sending her beautiful flowers,
spending his money freely, taking
her to all the nice places of enter-
tainment. And with pangs of re-
morse, she recalled that she had
given hint nothing in return, except
a few smiles, her company, and be-
ing engaged to hint after a fashion.
She started to touch him, to add
comfort to his last minutes if she
could; then she jerked her hand
back quickly, remembering that Joe
was a dangerous roan.
*
".are you in great pain, Joe?" she
asked gently. "I ant sorry, you
know." Ane, she was.
"Pain, h -l' he hissed from be-
tneen closed teeth, gritting back
the agony from within. Honey re-
coiled as' if he had struck her, so
filled with hatred were the words.
"I'm done for 'nd you know it.
Bt:t you're a fool if you think you
can get away with double-crossing
Joe Danburne."
"How did you find out I took .
the diamond, Joe?"
"By the only clue the police had."
"What was it??" Her heart stood
still with fright. if Joe had guessed,
the law plight do the same thing,
For a long time he did not say
anything and Honey was beginning
to wonder if he were dead, when he
spoke again with new strength in
his voice.
a * t
"A black button with a chip out
of its side, I told you the last time
you wore that black suit to lunch•
eon that one of the buttons had a
piece out of it, And you laughed
because I noticed such a small de-
tail. You lost that button when
you stole the purse from Mrs, Syl-
vester, Honey, It pays to remem-
ber small things when you are deal-
ing in jewels, And all the time 1
thought you were on the level." -
"Y4u won't understand, Joe. beet
there is a big difference in my rra-
ISSUE 8 - 1919
son for taking the diamond and
yours," she said simply. "I'nt not
a thief and never have been," She
steeled herself to go on. "I never
loved you. I had a purpose in mind
when I becatne engaged to you -
1 wanted to get that diamond, and
through you the path was opened.
And so I strung along." She tow-
ered her voice to impart the other
bit of news she wanted to tell hint.
"You sec, Joe, I love Dan Brew-
ster, and I have for a long time,
but he didn't know it."
"It doesn't matter now who you
love." He spoke just above a whis-
per and honey had to lean forward
to catch his words. "You won't
live to marry anyone." His words
sounded final, as though he knew
it for certain.
, *
Honey was out of his line of
focus, but site shook her Bead in de-
nial, not realizing that be could not
see her.
"No, I'm not going to die, Joe.
I'm not even hurt. The crash shook
me up a bit and knocked me out
for a few minutes. But I ani all
right now."
She could see Art's tall figure pac-
ing to and fro on the highway,
impatiently waiting for a motorist
to conte to their aid.
Joe took up his end of the conver-
sation as if he had not heard her
word of denial about her death,
"There were two things in the
world I wanted above all else be-
cause I love beauty. The Sylvester
diamond and you. I can't have the
diamond now. You sate to that. But
I can take you with mc." A gur-
gling sound escaped his throat. 1t
sounded like he was choking. Tears
carne faster to Honey's eyes and she
wrung her hands helplessly as she
sat near him, watching.
He struggled hard for a breath
and got it. Then with great effort,
he moved his body slightly. His
head turned to face he? and she was
glad of the darkness that hid what
might lie in his eyes at the moment.
As they faced each other there in
the darkness, a silence seemed to
settle over the earth and not a
sound came through the night. it
was so still that Honey could hear
her own heart thumping. When she
thought she could stand the quiet
no longer, Joe spoke.
"You are very beautiful, 1loncy.
But you are going to die," he said
and there was conviction in his tone.
"No, Joe. I'm all right," insisted
Honey.
"You're going to die," he repeated
and his voice was stronger now.
And then suddenly he lifted an arm
and a gun swayed toward her at
close range. She tried to move, but
too late. There was an explosion
and a spurt of fire as Joe pulled
the trigged.
Honey slumped over in a heap on
th- ground as Art carne running
up.

IINII&Y SCIIOOL
LESSON
By Rev. R. Barclay Warren
The Standards Of The Kingdom
Matt. 3:1421 7;24.27.
Golden Text: Seek ye first the
kingdom of God, and his righteous-
ness. -Matt, 6:33.
Most people will agree that no
three successive chapters in all the
Bible are as significant and import-
ant as Matthew 5.7. Here is the
manifesto of the King, He said, "I
carne not to destroy the law, but to
fulfill it." He did not come to fulfill
the Jaw as it had been misinter-
preted and applied by the Pharisees.
They had sought to keep the letter
of the law and still violate its true
meaning. Here Jesus restores the
late to its proper martinis and gives
examples to illustrate what He
(watts, Love is the perfect fulfill-
ment of the perfect law.
The beatitudes with Iv. theft lthe
manifesto opens affirm that those
who follow God's plan are happy,
The Greek word translated "bless-
ed" is in some versions translated
"happy," From the tinge an indi-
vidual begins to turn away from sift
to God, he receives a measure o'
happiness. This happiness increaser
and is characteristic of the Chris-
tian's life, sustaining him even when
reviled and falsely accused.
The sermon closes with a parable.
The person who hears and does the
sayings of Jesus is compared to a
pian who built his house upon i
rock, The house withstands the
storm. But the one who hears and
fails to do the sayings of Jesus is
like the than +rho built on sand. The
house collapses in the storm. Know•
ing the teaching of Jesus is not aufh-
cient. We Hurst obey,
He !who tales the way o: the
Kingdofn is freed from worry. "Seek
ye first the kingdom of God, and his
righteousness and all these things
shall be added unto you." "These
things" are those of which you have
need. Atirong the other precious
gems of truth iii this sermon on the
mount is the golden rule, "Therefore
all things tvhatscevcr ye would that
lush should do to you, de ye even so
to them,"

ANNA FFIRST
"DEAR ANNE HIRST: My
daughter, 23, is separated from her
husband, and is living with We. She
has a sweet little girl of four. i
don't know how
much longer I
can stand Iter
conduct!
"She has
never had the
responsibility of
taking care of
her child. A11
she cares about
is having fun,
She drinks, and stays out till three
or four its the morning, sometimes
does not come home at all, She
has even taken the baby with heel
"Her husband knows nothing of
this. He wants to go back with
her, but she won't consider it. She
wants to run around with other
hien.
"I've been a good mother, tried
to make it as easy as possible for
/her. She works during the day, and
1 keep the child, do her laundry,
and accept very little money for
everything.
"I've talked to her many times,
told her hots wrong she is, in a nice
way. I've even tried to force her
to behave, but to no avail. My hus-
band (her stepfather) doesn't ap-
prove, and .there's'a constant quar-
rel at our house all the time. Bet-
ween the two they are killing me
by degrees. I cannot sleep until
she gets home, and I cannot take
u much longer.
"Shall I tell her husband? He is
one -of the finest nun I ever knew.
I don't want to hurt my daughter,
for in 'spite of everything, I still
love k*tr wit!( all my heart. All I
want rs for her to live a goon life
and be a good mother.

• Yours is a harsh decision to
• make, and I sympathize with you
• deeply.
' To telt your daughter that she
* can no longer live with you unless
' she behaves herself, and that If
* she doesn't intend to she must
• take her child and live elsewhere,
* sounds the epitome of cruelty.
• Yet it may conte to that. So long
* as she knows her child is cared
e for, site feels free to live her own
' life, Living alone with the baby
*
may awaken her to her respon•
• sibilities, and force her to become
• a stable and dependable moths
• No one can know until she tries
* it.
If you think her husband,
* through his knowledge of her as
* his wife, can help you with any
* suggestions, you might talk
* things over with hint, For hire
* to approach her, however, its her
present mood, would only alienat;
• her further,
* you caunot continue living like
• this. You are not so young any
* more that you can 'stand all this
* anxiety with impunity. The con.
* slant turmoil in your home takes
* its toll -and what (would happen
* to you all If you break down?
* I think you should tell her,
* firmly, that you will have to make
* a change unless she cahns down.
* It will be hard to do, but it may
be the best. thing for her in the
-* long run.

by two sisters, one a nurse and the
other a fully gnalifird dietitian.

strange land, just six months out
from England and Partner tifty
miles away. But what probably
contributed most to my lonesome-
ness was the fact that among the
ldics•howattitg was ;t girl who was
evidently very popular and with
plenty of this world's goods. I re-
member she had beautiful reddish
hair, and wore a blue satin bed -
jacket to match her blue satin
eiderdown. From her hospital bed --
which didn't look like a hospital bed
bt all, lost a couch among a bower
of flowers—atnyway, from it she
held court. 'Chore were many visit-

dead.
That is a terrible thing to happen
in any language but this girl was
apparently a spoilt darling and re-
acted accorlingly. Before the baby
was horn there had been kidney
complications. She had been put
on a strict diet and yet had per-

some of the very things site wasn't

She looked at her and said nothing.

What's a Good Lunch?
One that contains enough food
—and the right kind of food. sI ILK
--for bones and teeth. A VEGE-
TA 131.E

such AS pleat, Fish, cheese, eggs or
peanut butter. I-10"1' FOOD—
such As soups, cocoa or scalloped
dishes,
Now, just a word about these
hot foods. Every school should have
facilities for reheating food, and
these are easy to ,Hake. Just a large
kettle of hot water—a canner serves
the purpose very well. It is Heil s•
sa'y to have a rack in the bottom to
keep the jars off the direct heat.
This may be made of wire. or may
be just a piece of hoard, about
of an inch thick, ss ith holes bored
in it to allow the water, to come up
around the jars.
Each child carries a jar of food in
its lunch kit. If put on the stove
to heat during morning reit ss, Ilse
food will be piping hot by noon.
Jars should be taken home to be
washed, and refilled for the. follow-
ing day.
What Foods for the Jar?
There are plenty that are suitable.
Baked beans, milk pudding, shep-
herd's pie, vegctabli stew, creamed
chicken, vegeta ble chowder,
spaghetti and meat with tomatoes,
macaroni and cheese.. creamed car-
rots or other vegetables. scalloped
potatoes, liver or salmon loaf,
creamed eggs, soup. cocoa with
mirk.

Canada's banks have

Your bank account is one of seven million. You
keep it In the bank of your choice, A bank exists
by the confidence of its depositors. You're the bon,
YOUR banks operate under charters
granted by Parliament, which every ten years
reviews and revises them.
•
Above all, the depositor is the
controlling factor—the safety of depositors'
funds is a bank's first concern. As a depositor
exercising your free choice --yours is the
power which keeps the bank alert
to your needs.
And it works out. Impartial authorities
have called Canada's banking system one of
the soundest and most efficient in the world.
Contrast this Canadian way with conditions in
lands where freedom is denied -where every
bank is a political tool, every banker a : tate

Great Britain
The .»toples of the United King-
dom are still a long way from being
out of the economic "woods" but
they Have travelled; during the past
year or so, a long distance toward
that objective.
In the first half of 1947, Britain's
balance -of -payments deficit against
the world as a whole was running at
a rate of over $2,600,000,000 annu-
ally. When the Marshall plan was
first put into operation, the U.S.
State Department estimated that
this deficit—during the 12 months
beginning July 1, 1948 --might pos-
sibly be reduced by around 40 per
rent,
But by the end of last year Britain
was beating that estimate at the rate
of A BILLION DOLLARS OR
MORE per annum. It was hitting
the Cripps export target of 50 per
lent above 1938. The excess of ex-
ports over imports was the highest
In all history, Britain was again
earning its own way, or was
close to it,
Such sensational gains reflects, in
large part, what one American
writer calls "self denialr more
stringent than any other democratic
country has ever imposed on itself
In times of peace." They also reflect
In part, the reduction in Britain's
overseas military expenditures,
At all events, although Britain is
Still running a deficit against the
Western I-Iemisphere—and although
She will continue to need some aid
from the Marshall plan for a time
—the all-over picture is decidedly
encouraging, Those pessimists who
were ''selling Britain short" and
staying that the Old Country was
worn out and done for are beginning
to eat their words, 1f some of the
other Western European beneficiar-
lea of the Marshall plan would use
the same sort of strenuous efforts to
put their houses in order, the gen-
eral state of affairs on the other side
of the Atlantis would be a whole lot
snore hopeful than they actually are
at present.
Also from Britain conies news of
"blindfold margarine test," Dr.
Edith Sulnnerskill is the Parlia-
mentary Secretary to the Ministry
of Food. She is also a lady of des
eidedly definite opinions, and is well
known for her positive views about
what people should, and shouldn't
eat.
Not long ago she announced that
nobody could tell the difference be-
tween margarine and butter, and
challenged all present to conte to
the Ministry's kitchen and take a
blindfolded test, An Oriel College
undergraduate, Colin Prestige, im-
mediately accepted. At latest advice
Prestige hadn't got round to calling
on Dr. Sunimerskill but both the
London Daily Mail and The Daily
Express had hint tried out. They
deported that Prestige had distin-
tlulshed between butter and its sub-
Stiiute exactly Six times out of six.
And when the Daily Chronicle
. sent a girl reporter around. London,
rrrned with supplies, she found that
Ilaoat of the housewives could alto
tell the difference without too much
trouble.

The United States
They've been doing a bit of fonts
testing on this side of the Atlantic
as well. 'Caking part in these tests
were 239 members of 64 urban
Pennsylvania families, all in appar-
ent good health. And the findings
ntay have farther reaching and lon-
ger -lasting results than a lot of the
news which makes the front page
headlines.
For these were by no means
"under privileged" families, Two
thirds of thein had incomes of be-
tween $2500 and, $5000 per year,
The other third had over $5000
yearly, All lived well and ate well
—or at least ate what they thought
was proper fool,
Yet until they were tested by
representatives of the year-long
nutrition study conducted by West-
inghouse Electric and Pennsylvania
_State College, these supposedly
healthy and intelligent people
never even suspected that they
were eating their way into poor
health. Yet only 28 per cent of the
families consumed enough food to
meet proper caloric requirements;
and few had enough proteins, min-
erals and vitamins.
Isere are sonic of the findings.
Adult woolen made the poorest
showing. At least 58 per cent were
underweight and more than half of
them had less than three-fourths of
the highly necessary calcium,
Adult males scored higher than
females on everything but Vitamin
"C"—this being a reflection of, gen-
eral dislike for raw foods such of
salads,
Teets age girls copied their
mothers in faulty eating habits.
Fifty per rent were underweight,
Teen age boys showed better
eating habits than their sisters,
Children under 12 nia(1e relatively
good showings, but close investiga-
tion revealed that many \\ere un-
derweight and lacking in bone
development.
And the proof of the pudding
REALLY WAS in the eating, '1•o
insure accurate results, the families
included in the tests began eating
ander a controlled plan. Definite
quantities of foods were prescribed
according to individual needs.
Housewives were taught how to
market, how to cook food to retain
the greatest amounts of minerals
and vitamins, also how to store
food properly.
ins spite of the increase in meat,
milk, eggs, and fats, food costs
under the new plan rote only
around $1.35 per week for each
family. And in•the end proper foods
properly cooked brought amazing
results.
All family' members reported that
they felt better, looked better, did
not get irritated so easily, noticed
less fatigue and had fewer colds.
Individual medical ratings rose as
much as 14 per cent. Adult women
were still In lowest place when the
survey finished—a stubborn 14 per
cent of them were still eating less
than three-fourths of the required
calories, Unlike their mothers, 75
per cent of the teen age girls
reached standard weight. Men and
boys showed itnprovenlent in nearly
all parts of tht rating. Children
under 12 improved satisfactorily,
and by the end of the year none
was seriously underweight.
"An apple a day" may not be a
guarantee sof "keeping the doctor
away". Ent it would seem as though
proper eating, all along the line.
would make medical attention far
less necessary.

Nov if there is one phase of the
game of hockey about which we
claire to be something of a con-
noisseur—what language! --it is the
art of goal tending, There are sev-
eral reasons for this, Back in the
misty past, when we used to play
hockey, we were always chosen—
by the unanimous vote of our team-
mates --to tend goal, only we called
it "Fool",
This t'ilcuct, we auaintain, was
because of our superior agility,
keen eye and t;O011iCSS; although
there are some of our contempor-
aries who basely claim that it was
On account of a habit we shared
witli a one-time N,11.1., referee,
whose name we %vill kindly suppress
--said habit being that of doing our
skating principally on our ankles,
r • .
Performing all (131('s ankies, if
done in its proper sphere, can win
a man both applause and wealth,
As The Scarecrow in ''The Wizard
of Oz" tile' great Fred Stone used
to do an acentric dance on his
ankles which wowed then from
coast to coast, But as a forward in
hockey—or even as a defenceman
—the ankle stuff has its drawbacks,
And so we became a goaltender,

ing within a bare ten goals of scor-
ing a shutout against keen opposi-
tion.

days of Percy LeSeuer, Clint Bene-

too numerous to mention, (Clint
Benedict was called, disparagingly,
"Praying Benny" because of his
custom of dropping to his knees
to smother shots, which hasn't
considered exactly "cricket' in
those .days—and we wonder what
he thinks when he sees those mod-
ern goaltenders who seem to be
standing on their ears more often
than on their skates,)
* * *
\\'e have also been honored by
the personal friendship of several
of the top hands ill goal tending;
and have heard them discuss con-
tidentiall' the intricacies of their
profession, It w'as front then that
we learned that, technically, a
"left handed goalie' is not, as you
might think, one who holds his
►tick in the sinister paw. A right
hander is one who uses that tin
to do the catching, grasping his
wvarclub with the left,

trying to compare joint L. Sullivan

finite line to go by, But as we
stated previously, we think we
knots' enough to appreciate really
high class cage-guarding—and we
are here to say that the display
staged by Al r. Chuck Rayner, of
the New fork Rangers, in 'Toronto
recently, ranked with the very best.

It's taken us over a long and
tortuous course to arrive at what

one man they won't be able to blame

but in the rumpus taking place be-
tween the Toronto Male School

Just for a change, here's a little
success story—or rattler a story
abort a young man who appears to
be well on his way to success. Ile
i- Hazen \I. Cain of ford's Mills
down in New Brunswick, and he's
now 29 years of age.
A kw years ago Ire bought three
old farms which were pretty well
run Clown—in fact, to most people,,
they looked as though they tvcre
just • about done for, But Call
started in to build theta up, using
ground limestone, fertilizer and, 1
imagine, plenty of elbow grease.
k k • R
11ow well he succeeded can be
told from the fact that last year
he harvested 1100 bushels of oats
and barley, 800 barrels of turnips,
and enough good hay for 40 head
of cattle; which sounds like pretty
fair going.
1n 1945 Cail bought out the
Herefords owned by T. M. Girvon
of Rexton, N.B. The lot consisted
of one bull and two cows with two
heifer calves. From that start he
now Inas 20 head of purebred Here-
fords, 10 of which are now old
enough to be breeding cattle.
While attending a winter fair not
long ago `a Polled Hereford bull
was shown by Tuttle Bros, of
Wentworth, N.S. Although just out
of pasture this bull was second in
its class against strong horned
competition. Cain was so impressed
that he decided he would like to do
away with the horns, and breed
Polled Herefords himself. The
Tuttle bull was the first of that
breed to go into Nova Scotia, so
Cail wrote to Malcolm McGregor
of Brandon, Man.—who had sold
the animal to the 'I'uttles — and
asked what about getting one like
it,
The result was that, just a short
time ago, \lighty Otto—whose pic-
ture appears elsewhere on this page
— was shipped to Cail. Mighty
Otto, by the way, is a half brother
to Otto Leader, which was the bull
bought at the 1947 Royal Winter
Fair and flown to the Argentine
where he because Reserve Grand
Champion at the great Palermo
show.
Until his purchase arrived in New
Brunswick, Hazen Cail had never
set eyes on Mighty Otto. Iie
planked down $1500 for the bull,
sight unseen; and in time hopes to
build up a herd of around SO head
of Polled Herefords of the better
type. judging by what he has
accomplished in the past few years,
we imagine that Cail trill be suc-
cessful. If not, it won't be from
• lack of trying.

In the past I have received
several inquiries regarding the pos-
sibilities of Ontario farmers getting
workers from the Netherlands. Now
I've received information from the
Netherlands Immigration Commit•
tee, which I'll pass along to any of
you trho are interested, without
comment.
•
« •
"About seven thousand Holland
immigraltts have come to Ontario
during the last two years, and now
work on farms in this Province, on
the whole to the satisfaction of the
farmers," the report says. "The im-
migrants, with very fete exceptions,
are )sappy in the land of their adop-
tion. An adjustment to our way
of life and learning the English
language brings its difficulties; but
soon these people will be absorbed
into our rural communities, living
and acting like born Canadians. •

"It is regrettable that they were
not allowed to bring along their
stoney when leaving Holland. In
many cases these people possessed
valuable property and had money
in the bank, but the Netherlands
Government could not allow any to
be taken out, on account of econo-
ntic conditions caused h. the last
war.

"Also this coming year, more
plan to conte if farmers in Ontario
needing help are willing to act as
sponsors. To be a sponsor requires
to give the immigrant suitable liv-
ing quarters, either a separate house
or suitable rooms, steady employ-
ment and pay prevailing wages,
minimum being seventy-five dollars
a month.

The skipper and the engineer
were arguing. The latter said that
steering a ship was far easier than
looking after the engines, and the
captain said that looking after the
engines was child's play compared
with steering. They decided to
settle the argument by changing
places.
After ten minutes the captain had
to admit he was beaten. "Macpher-
son," he shouted, "I cen't get the
engines to startl"
"That's all right," replied the
engineer; "ye ncedna bother—we're

By Edmund Vance Cook,
A STRANGE CREATURE
Trouble can come to almost any
corner of the world. Right now
it's in the "potato patch." Bugs,
potato bugs, were the problem in
my boyhood days, now—It's prices,
writes R. J; Deaclunan. Potatoes
can be, at times, unusually prolific.
When the season is right they may
wreck us, with abundance! It is
more difficult to deal with abun-
dance than with scarcity.
Man is a strange creature and
wonderfully perverse. He howls to
high heaven when prices are high
and wants the government to solve
his problems. He resents paying
high prices for things he buys but
thinks, not for a moment, of the
high prices of the things he sells,
'When prices drop the Consumers'
League may be silent but the pro-
ducers will go after the government
and ask for a floor under prices.
Strange world, isn't it?
Dill you ever think of this pecu-
liar thug? We have a market for
live stock, innumerable factorc play
upon that market. The price of
"feeders," the cost of grain, infla-
tion and deflation, the volume of
money, the tempo of business, the
weather, the foreign demand for
meat. All these things work on
that market and, except in very
exceptional times, provide us witlt
the treat we need at reasonable
price. If there had been no such
market in existence we would have
had to create it and I can't get into
my mind a picture of parliament
sitting down and starting from
scratch to create a market which
would function in a ntanner quite
so satisfactorily as the present meat
market. With all the fooling we
may do with floors and ceilings we
will in time accept the open mar-
ket and stay with it. Then eventu-
ally seek and attain free movement
of natural products, not only with
the United States, but the world.

Fastest Rail Trip
In The World
You won't believe it if you ride
in the Vistadome, and watch the
roadbed curving around the Missi-
ssippi River bluffs ahead of your
train, but the running time of the
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy's
Zephtyrs. from' East Dubuque,
Illinois, to Prairie du Chien, Wk. -
cousin, is the fastest scheduled rail
trip in the world. It takes just
thirty-nine minutes to travel the
54.6 miles from stop to stop, an
average of eighty-four miles an
hour. This is nearly two utiles an
hour faster than any other sche-
dule, anywhere, yet the the train
seldom exceeds ninety -utile -an -hour
top speed.
t< r r
It doesn't seem fast, sitting in the
glassed -in roof -top compartments
that are features of these post-war
trains, because you are so far above
the ground, it's a different story in
the front end of the Diesel engine
that powers the train, especially
when you knife by a long string
of freight s cars on an adjoining
track. Veteran enginemen aren't
ashamed of a brief prayer at such
moments, particularly when the
cars block off a grade -crossing view,
The Wren who guide the Zephyrs
along the, bank of the Mississippi
like the absence of grade crossings
and populated towns on their route.
"But we have another hazard," I
was told by Frank T. Schini,
Zephyr engineer, "in the rocks that
often fall from the bluffs," Affable,
rcareful, sixty -six-year-old Schini
played a major role its reducing the
risk from rock falls some years•ago.
From the cab of his freight loco-
motive he spotted rocks on the
parallel track in time to flag down
a fast train which would have been
wrecked. Shortly after, the Bur -
wired fence along the bluffs. A
lington installed an electrically
break in the fence autontatically sets
back signals in stop position.
♦ * *
Once Schini has eased the 2,000•
horsepower engine and its seven
.lightweight stainless steel cars past
thirty Utiles an hour, not far out
of East Dubuque, he sets the.
' throttle wide open and moves his
left hand close to the cord of hie
bull -throated air horn. His right
(sand is never far from the break
lever, and one foot rests on n. "dead
man" pedal that automatically stops
the train if not depressed. it takes
five or six minutes for the roaring
Diesels feeding smooth electric
power to the axles, to inch the
speedometer to ninety. Before it
travels much lighter, Schini cuts the
throttle, then incheg it up when the
speed falls off.
There are plenty of Diesel trains
that, at tinges, exceed the Zephyr's
steady ninety to ninety-five utiles
an hour. They seldom, however,
top 105, though Diesels have reach •
-
ed 120. but the all -tinge speed,
record still belongs to steam, dat-
ing back to 1905, when a Pennsyl-
vania train streaking across Ohio
reached 127.1 miles an hour.

Childhood
Encore
By
ROGER /, VREELAND
The house still stands at 215 In-
wood Lane, Claremont. The In•
wood Lane is important. Remetnber
that. The number doesn't make any
difference, because then there wasn't
another house within 500 yards.
Honeysuckle at the end of the
piazza entwined a lattice screen and
you could really suck the honey.
Uncle Cleat—who wasn't really my
uncle—had ,shown me how. Can -
'las grew funnel -shape way up past
the piazza railing. Mother's round
peony garden on the side lawn by
the swing that my father had made
(I never remembered him) grew
lusciouscreamy pink and white
flowers.
inside was the brick fireplace be-
fore which the three of us would
sit in the winter, Uncle Clem taking
care of the fire and telling us stories
while Mother served, and I would
watch the picture of Nero's Horses
over the mantel until I saw their
eyes roll and breath steam out of
their nostrils.
This was the house I was born in.
it was big and it was old and it was
full of strange nooks from cellar to
attic. I knew Mother liked it for
she often said she hoped some day
to buy it.
Considering she was a widow,
any mother slid well in providing for
the two of us until Mr. Hale came.
That was Uncle Clem's real name.
She didn't need the small amount he
paid her. It was just frau the kind-
ness of her heart that she gave hint
a home, He was old, feeble, bent
over; he carried a cane most of the
time. I know those things now.
But strangely 1 remembered hint as
spry, full of pep and fun. He was
good and kind and always thinking
of things to do.
Mother never knew where he
carne from, until after he was gone.
The first I ever saw of hint was
when he appeared at the door Into
the living room and "entertained"
hint until Mother came in from the
chicken coop.
Mother was cool to hint at first.
She was always suspicious of
strangers. But I saw the kind of
fellow he was right away. He told
her his family was gone and asked
if she had a room to spare. He said
he had a little money, enough to
pay for his room and board.
Uncle Cletn spent nearly all his
dime with me. Sometimes he would
forget what we were playing, and
sit with a kind of dreamy, faraway
look. Then he would snap back into
what the were doing. He got to
calling my mother Mom and I guess
she didn't mind.
Once I heard hits tell her that his
working days were over and he en-
joyed trying to be a boy again.
But there were some things I
couldn't understand about hiw.
When we played hiding gauges he'd
seem to have an uncanny sense of
where to look. He knew about the
flat stone over the abandoned well
behind the chicken coop before I
allowed it to hunt, the loose board
on the floor of my .closet, the re-
cesses over the eaves in the attic,
and the door to the unused cold
storage vault in the cellar. He
even knocked on one of the inside
walls where it sounded hollow, and
he said: "There was a window there
once."
When Uncle Cleat died I cried all
night. Mother had to go into hie
personal things. His will was made
out to her, leaving her enough to
buy the house, I'll never forget her
cry of surprise when she came ac-•
ross an old newspaper clipping he
had saved. It was about his retire-
ment from business. i have it now.
"Clement B. Hale," it began,
"was s'erved a testimonial dinner
last night by the insurance company
which lie has served for 40 years.
This a record for the company, stat-
ed John H. Quinn, the president,
who presented Mr. Hale with a gold
watch. Hale, who now retires on
pension, was horn March 19, 1852,
on Inwood Lane, Claremont ..,"
Motor Manners
John Kieran is widely known as
a great sports writer and nature
lover, also as one of the experts on
"Information Please." Writing about
motorists recently Kieran stated
that most of them drive like "sons
of Belie!, flown with insolence and
wine." As proof of the statement
he cited the fact that, in the United
States alone, more than 10,000
pedestrians are killed each year, and
said that such fatalities are usually
the result of bad motor manners.
He also offered the following
polite suggestions for abating what
he calls an "insufferable situation."
Here they are:
1, Drive as though pedestrians
were friends, not enemies.
2. Try using the brake occasion•
ally instead of relying exclusively
on the horn. This will prove that
you really do give more than s
hoot for a pedestrian.
3, Don't wait until the last
moment and then slam on the—
brakes. You might as well kill a
matt as scare hint to death.
4. A driver blocking a crosswalk
should not sit there with an arro-
gant air as though the milling
pedestrians were beneath contempt.
At least he could look apologetic.
"Assume a virtue if you have It
not." (Shakespeare).
5. Don't cheat at traffic lights or
corners. Give the pedestrian time
to get across the street before yore
start up.
6. Don't drive so fast. It probably
won't matter if you arrive a few
minutes later.
7. Remember. that an automobile
is supposed to be a accessory to
civilization and not a homicidal
weapon.
Nip Firemen Acting Really Nippy.—At the annual fire brigade
review held at the Imperial Plaza Palace, Japanese airmen
shinny up and down guy -ropes in a demonstration of their skill
Almost 5,000 firemen took part in a spectacular review, which
was witnessed by great multitudes.
