destroyers attached to the United Nations forces assigned to
the. defence of South Korea will be flying the U.N. flag, their
nationality will be easily identifiable through the maple leaves
displayed on their funnels, Here Ordinary Seaman Perry Mac-

maple leaf on the funnel of H.M,C.S, Athabaskan, The other
destroyers in the Canadian division are H,M,C. Ships Cayuga

TllIFMM FRONT
Here's an idea that might be
worth the attention of some of you
fruit growers who live fairly close
to a big town or city, Of course it
will be to late to do anything about
it this year, but it will ,bear think-
ing over for next. And if you hap-
pen to know all about it already—
well, it was new to me when I ran
across it recently.
* , **
Customers of a peach and cherry
orchard owned by a man named
Wagner, over in Fairfield County,
Ohio, do their own harvesting, They
get their fruit at -its tree -ripened
best, and the orchard owner is spar-
ed the expense of picking, picking
and shipping. Here's how the scheme
works, as reported by Vernon Pat-
terson, a Horticulturist at Ohio
State University,
* * *
Wagner worked out his plan dur-
ing the war when labor was im-
possible to hire during picking sea-
sons. Each tree was numbered and
marked with a brass tag. Customers
were given a choice of varieties and
then were assigned one or more
tree numbers. The system worked
so well that almost all of the orchard
now is harvested by people living
in nearby cities.
* * *
The "owner" of each tree agrees
to take the entire crop from the
tree or trees under agreement, At
harvest -tine, Wagner furnishes lad-
ders and hauls fruit to the packing
house. Customers bring containers
and pay an established price for
the season according to the number
of bushes produced by the tree,
*• *' *
Wagner says the system works
well and few disagreeinents have
occurred during the years it has
been in operation. The' saine cus-
tomers come back year after year
and a waiting list is maintained.
* * *
Now, a few hints that may be
useful, I hope, to those interested
in egg production, If you want to
avoid that hot -weather stump—
FEED THEM WET MASH, When
the mercury starts to climb toward
the top of ' the thermometer tube,"
regular mash consumption often
drops, with a consequent slutnp in
the number of eggs you get.
* * *
Enough wet stash for 100 hens
can be made by mixing 2 pounds of
regular mash with water or skim
milk. Feed the !vet mash on top
of the dry mash at noon in the re-
gular mash hoppers. A laying slump
often can be avoided if you start
feeding, wet mash as soon as you
notice a drop in feed consumption,
* * *
SECOND—GIVE THEM AIR
When the temperature climbs to 90
degrees, the loss in weight by
layers is serious, feed consumption
drops sharply, and their is a defin-
ite loss in size and interior quality
of eggs. Shells become thinner,
which results in more breakage.
* * _*
When the temperature climbs to
100 degrees, there is always the
real danger of heat prostration and
death of layers. Egg production tnay
stop if temperatures go much above
100 degrees.
Many laying houses are not pro-
perly built for summer use. Cross
ventilation is necessary, Windows
should be screened so they can be
removed, Plenty of space for water-
ing and feeding is necessary.
* :k
Another effective measure is the
use of aluminum in sheet, roll, or
paint forst to keep the heat out
by acting as reflective insulation, In
general, the smaller .poultrymen will
not find the use of mechanical air
circulation—such as electric fans
or sprinkling roofs with water—to
be practical,
* * *
AND — THIRD — SQUELCH
THOSE BROODIES, During, the
summer months, some hens in any
flock suddenly become broody.
* * *
A coop made from a lettuce crate
gives excellent results when hung
from the ceiling near the nests. Such
a crate is 15". high, 18" wide, and
24" long, These coops have a flat
bottom. A piece of electric -welded
wire may be fastened at the top,
by staples, to swing inward to make
a door.
* * *
Troughs can be attaclied to the
side and fastened on the outside of

dreds of oil stock promotions, the
industry is settling down to a more
orderly existence, It is gradually
being realiied that the mere dis-
covery of oil, important though it
is,' does not permit quick realization
of profits which can be won from
its production, True, numerous
companies are producing oil and
selling it to the local refineries for
revenue and some. of the producers
are doing well, However, it is now
known that in order to cash in to
the fullest extent possible it is
necessary to have a refinery ad-
junct to oil wells,
There are now three Targe refin-
eries and four smaller ones in the
Prairie oil fields, The most fatuous
of these are Imperial and British
American which have been active
for years in the \Vest, More re-
cently smaller but growing .refiner-
ies have conte into existence and
one of these is Excelsior, which
started five years ago with a
$35,000 cleaning plant and now has
a layout worth at least $1,000,000.
This growth alone is indicative of
the profits to be won in the refin-
ing end, I-Iowev'er, Excelsior also
has its own oil ' wells, with over
11,000,000 bbls, in reserve, and has
call on an additional 15,000,000 bbls,
Recently Excelsior Refineries sold
$1,000,000 in 5 per cent bonds to
\Vilrich Petroleums Limited, which
shares in the production of 41 wells
in the Leduc, Whitemud, Excelsior
and Blackfoot areas and has an
interest in 15 well sites in Red -
water, \Vilrich also is engaged in
large scale exploration oil -gas pro-
jects in Police Coupe' arca, Peace
River Section, and Lone Mountain
area of B.C., just across the boun-
dary.
This four-way method of protect-
ing supplies and exposing the part-
nership to appreciation through
finding -of new wells, slakes the
teaming up of Excelsior Refineries
and \Vilrich Petrolcunts one of the
most advanced of the recent West-
ern oil developments,
the coop by screw hooks. You can
provide water by fitting a can into
one end of the feed trough. A piece
of welded wire fabric hungover
the top side of the feed trough
prevents hens on the floor from
flying up to cat grain from the
broodies in the coop.
• * *
John Krill uses another idea on
broody liens, He fills a 2" x 6" car-
ton with eggs, places it in a freezer,'
and keeps it .there until needed.
When a -"cluck" is discovered, three
or four of the frozen eggs are placed
under her, Two such chilly treat-,
stents will discourage even the most
determined bird. Krill marks a line
around each frozen egg with an in-
delible pencil to avoid the mis-
chance' of its being gathered with
the fresh eggs,
* * *,
When done with the eggs, he
puts then back in the carton, and
they are kept in the freezer until
needed.

effective than good advice,

World's Best A -Bomb Refuge—These caves, carved in solid
granite some 50 feet underground, provide Arab tribesmen of
Tripolitania with what is probably the world's best- protection
against the effects of an A-bomb. The underground dwellings,
however, were not built with an eye towards modern-day
safety for the Arabs have virtually no contact with the out-
side world, The advice of a soothsayer, who lived 600 years ago,
prompted them to become 'tenants of these subterranean
compartments.
The controversy over what is the
real .cause of the 'plague of home
runs presently infesting all base-
ball still continues, and threatens
to go on indefinitely, or even long-
er, About the only point on which
the expert—pant and unpaid—seem
to agree is that if something isn't
done to curb this plague of two-
bit four -baggers, the game itself
is bound to suffer.
* * *
There are those who say that the,
ball itself has been injected with
a speed solution of the same sort
as used 10 be applied to turn slow
Thoroughbreds into fast ones, when
the right money was ,down, But re-
searchers have cleaved balls in two,
picked them to pieces, and subjected
thein to everything but the saliva
test, and yet have failed to find
anything that doesn't appear strictly
on the up -and -up,
* * *
The manufacturers of the official
balls categorically deny that the
ball is any different, or livelier, than_
those Babe Ruth used to clout over
various fences, to the delight of
the crowd and benefit of the box-
office, And the manufacturers have
no reason to lie about it, seeing that
they make the balls for both big
leagues, just putting different names
on them.
* * *
Others say that the difference lies
in the bats—that the sluggers arc
using lighter hickories than for-
merly, and thus getting greater
velocity to their swings. Xhis, to
tis, sounds like saying that a 150
pound boxer can bit a harder 'blow
than a 200 -pounder, or that you can
drive spikes better with a tack -
hammer than with a sledge; but of
course, we could be wrong.
* * *
The most reasonable explanation
we have seen as yet puts the blame
directly on the rule makers, 'These
boys have been tinkering with the
regulations, and giving the mounds -
men the worst of it with every tink,
The strike zone has been con-
tracted to such an extent that—
according to some of the heavers
—when a small man such as Pee
Wee Reese is at the plate, you
practically have to put the ball
through a knothole before the untps
will call "Strike."
* * *
Also, with runners on the bases,
the new and more strictly -enforced
balk rule severely cramps a heaver's
style. The net result is that, instead
of keeping ahead of the hitter, the
pitcher is constantly behind, .The
count becomes 3 and 0 and Mr.
Pitcher has to serve up that old
fat one, or allow a walk, And even
a mediocre hitter, when he knows
right well that corpulent one is
coming, is liable to do things to it.
* • * *
Still and all when we see some
of the alleged hitters with fifteen
or more homers to their credit, and
the season barely half over, we
somehow wish the investigators had
gone the full distance, and applied
the saliva test, too, to that modern
ball,

The annual -question is being ask-
ed in golfing circles again these
days, which is as fair 'an indication
as any that the Canadian Open—
Canada's top golf show of the year
—is just about a month away. Tlic
question is, of course, can a Cana-
dian win this country's top golf
award, or will it go to a pro from
another country as it has consist-
ently sincce 1914?
* * *
The question won't get a final
answer until this year's Open is
over at Royal Montreal Aug, 27,
but in the meantime the season of
speculation is on — and with the
speculation is the wistful hope that
maybe this is the year of the big
surprise.

fact that the event always attracts
some of the best competiive golfers

prize money which the House of
Seagram lets ride with the Gold
Cup each year brings up many of
the big names of golf, names which
belong to men who make tourna-
ment golf their livelihood and who
play winter and summer, year -in

The Man Who "Doubled"
For Field Marshal Montgomery
Living in a quiet little house on
the, South Coast is a sick, middle-
aged actor called Clifton James,
who once stood on the stage of the
world itself—and played a part that
every actor alive would have ac-
cepted with an excited, thumping
heart,
Clifton James is the one-time lieu-
tenant in the Royal Army 1'ay
Corps who "doubled" for Field
Marshal Montgomery in the vital
hours before 1)-1)ay. He carne into
the news again recently when the
Press reported that his application
for a disability run -about chair had
been turned down because he was
not totally disabled, writes Leonard
Samson in a recent issue of "An-
swers."
1 went down to his hone at
Worthing to sec hint and hear again
the fantastic story of how ire hood-
winked the Germans into thinking ,
that Monty was in Gibraltar at a
time when he was really standing
on the spring -board of the Euro-
pean invasion,
The orders given to James were
probably the most vital and colour-
ful ones ever put before an insig-
nificant subaltern, and I wanted to
find out something of the years that
had led up to one of the greatest
deceptions in history,
His First Battle
He was seventeen years old, a
schoolboy, wlien the First World
War broke out, but he lied about
his age and a few months later
found himself an infantry officer in
the British trenches, just another
shy, frightened boy suddenly flung
into the thick of the Battle of the
Somme.
He doesn't taik,nwch about those
days (although enemy gas may
have contributed to his present ill•
ness) but he did mention one Mei-
dent concerning a German soldier
who surrendered witlt a grenade
clasped in one hand, James woke
up to find an M.O. picking lumps
of metal out of his body. Attd the
middle finger of his right band was
missing, That finger was to cause
many a headache in Whitehall
nearly thirty years later.
Two years after the Kaiser sur-
rendered, James was still in hospi-
tal, but a few weeks later he had
recovered 'sufficiently to try to pick
up the, threads of his pre-war life.
"My father had died when I was
one-year old, and my guardian was
-no longer responsible for me, so
was pretty well alone," he told
the. "I decided to become an actor,
I`t wasn't easy, but I gradually be-
gan to make headway,"
There were long tours, up and
down Wales with a company that
had fifty plays in its repertolre—a
different play each night; there were
resident companies in England, and
tours of the British Isles. The years
passed, and James became a reli-
able, competent actor. He had a
had period of unemployment, when
he tried his hand at selling pianos,
but by the middle thirties he was
making a success of his career.
Then 'came the Second World
War,
"I joined the Army again, and
this time I was put in the Royal
Army Pay Corps," he said, "Being
an actor, I organized entertain-
ments and took part in troop
shows,"
One day Clifton James was called
to London front his unit in Leices-
ter to meet Colonel David Niven
and chat about Army films, But
their conversation was only a pre-
text,
A few minutes after meeting each
other, Niven ushered him into an-
other roost _where he was intro-
duced to Colonel Lester.
"At least, that's what he called
himself," James went on. Ile asked
me to sign an extract front the
Official Secrets Act, and then told
me that I resembled General Mont-
gomery so closely that, if I was
willing, r might be called upon to
'double' for hint, I was completely
bewildered, but I said immediately
that I'd do it."
The curtain was about to be rung
up on the greatest role of Clifton
James' career.
General Montgomery hiiuself was
at a secret rendezvous on the South
Coast, ready to watch a full dress
rehearsal of the invasion. It was
also a rehearsal for James. A few
days later he had been "demoted"
to a sergeant of the Intelligence
Corps, and posted to Montgomery's
headquarters so that he could study
the general at close range.
"If I'd Been A Spy"
"When the exercise ended," said
James, "I travelled back to Lon-
don by train, In the saute compart-
ment was a sailor who told the
practically every detail of the inva-
sion rehearsal 1 had just witnessed,
If I'd been a, spy the Germans
would have had the whole set-up.
Fortunately, it was just another lit-
tle incident. Back at the War Office
they told Inc that Monty was going
to Scotland on a fishing trip, I was
to go up there and see liar privately
so that I could catch the intona-
tions and pitch of his voice,
"I had two or three fifteen -min-
ute interviews with hltn, when we
would talk about the theatre—he
was deeply futerested in it—or
Australia, the country where I was
born, I was terribly nervous, bqt
by the time I returned to London
1 had begun to take on his charac-
ter."
Awkward Questions
On Friday, May 26th, Lieuten-
ant M. E, Clifton James became
General B, L. Montgomery, He
wore the famous beret and uniform,
whitened his moustache and tent-
ples -- and tied a cunningly con-
trived bandage on his right hand in
place of the missing finger.
I -Ie drove through the streets of
Loudon to Northolt, and along the
route he returned the salutes and
waves of soldiers and civilians. At
the airport, highranking officers of
the Army and Air Force saw hint
into the plane which was to fly
him to Gibraltar,
"My 'aide' was a brigadier who
knew Monty intimately, He was
travelling with nuc to keep at a
distance anyone who might ask
awkward questions; the general's
own rclativcs,.perhaps,"
They Saluted
James laughed suddenly: "I wish
1 could have enjoyed the role I
was playing, but the last words
Colonel Lester said to Inc were 'Do
your best, Jatues; You've got the
lives of two divisions on your shoul-
ders.' I was terrified that I would
stake that one little slip that would
give the game away,"
As the plane approached Gibral-,
tar, James prepared himself for the
scene,that he had rehearsed so
manytimes back in London, He
stepped out of the aircraft and re-
turned the salutes of the officers
standing at attention to greet him,
"I was driven to Government
House," Janes continued, "to tweet
Sir Ralph. Eastwood, the Governor
of Gibraltar,
"He and Monty were very old
friends so, of course, he knew all
about the plan. We wandered into
the garden together and went
through a pre -arranged conversa-
tion. While the were talking, two
Bucs Change 1-Iands—Tom Johnson (left) and John .Galbraith,
Meheads of the Pittsburgh Pirates, drop down to Forbes
ld M Pittsburgh for a look-see, Galbraith Will be president
turd Johnson secretary -treasurer. Frank McKinney sold out his
interest in the National League's cellar teatn.
Tanks Are' Coming—Light tanks of the First Marine Division are loaded aboard an LSU in
San Diego, Calif, The tanks are part of the equipment of the Korea -bound Leathernecks,
tett walked up the path and the
Governor introduced me to then,
Later I was told that one of them
was a Spanish nobleman in the
service of the Germans, It had all
been worked out so that the enemy
would know of my arrival on the
Rock. •
"And here's a thrilling sidelight
on the whole thing, One hour after
I arrived Madrid had the news.
That sante night Berlin knew all
about Montgomery's visit to Gi-
braltar, The news reached Berlin
through the most secret channels,
but our own agents in the German
capital were so well organized that
they were able to pass the informa-
tion back to London almost imme-
diately."
All Over
Front Gibraltar, James flew to
Algiers, and there he was driven by
one of General Maitland Wilson's
aides to G.l1,Q, It was a ride plan-
ned to display himself as Mont-
gomery,
When the car drew to a halt and
Ire entered the house, the last act
was over, The curtain had rung
down. But there was no applause
from an appreciative audience, All
that remained was for the actor to
sit down quietly, smoke a cigarette,
and remove his costume and make-
up,
A few days later, after an incon-
spicuous stay in Cairo, Lieutenant
Clifton James flew back to England,
The anti -climax reached its lowest
depths when his C.a. at Leicester
threatened to put hint'ot a charge
for being absent without leave, A
call to M.i.5 soon cleared matters
up.
"That Fake"
The months dragged by and in
June, 1946, he was demobbed. Still
sworn to secrecy, James read an
extract one day in Barry C.
Butcher's book "My Three Years
Witlt Eisenhower," which stated
that someone, with tongue in cheek,
had reported to Montgomery at
SI-IAEF (Supreme Headquarters
American Expeditionary Force) that
"the fake Montgomery is swagger-
ing about half drunk in Gibraltar,
smoking mammoth cigars like a
chimney."
The information had never been
refuted, so James contacted the
War 011ice and was given permis-
sion by Viscount Montgomery to
tell publicly the true version of his
dramatic flight and impersonation,
PEOPLE ARE READING
THE ATLAS AGAIN - -
A few days ago a lot of people
made the same old journey to the
bookshelf to take clown the atlas
and - look up the . location of un-
familiar places, This time is was
Seoul, tits Kunz River and Taiwan,
There may have been a time when
a man could be content if he knew
his own country and the towns in
it, but trot in the past twenty-five
years. During those years after the
First World War there was many
a jourfiey to the shelf for the maps
of places far away, The first time,
back in 1925, may have been for
pleasant purposes. In those (lays
traps showed chiefly • where for-
eign friends might live or they
mapped the route for a leisurely
bicycle tour of England and West-
ern Europe. They Wright even have
showed the itineraries of Intourist
journeys to the Soviet Union, in
those days when tourists were wel-
come, in those days when Stalin-
grad was simply a two-hour stop
in the evening on the boat ride
down the Volga to Astrakhan, In
the next years the atlas had other
uses: to show the exact locatiott
of Locartto and the treaty signers,
attd a close study of what was
called the Great Circle route, which
Lindbergh and other pilots were
flying,
In 1932 the atlas became some-
thing else—a means for quickly lo-
cating the latest horror, The Par
Eastern section showed just where
the Japanese were landing In .their
punitive expeditious on Chinese
soil. Not long after, it was the
naps of Germany and Austria,
with Hitler in power and Dolfuss
dead. In 1935 a matt had to tura
to a .totally ,unfamiliar part of the
atlas to search down the strange
places named Addis Ababa, Adowa
and Makale, There was one un-
happy day, apart from wars and
fighting ,in those years, when the
atlas had to be ttsed to locate Point
Barrow, where Will Rogers had
just died,
The atlas was off the shelf almost
every day after 1937, to fill out the
details in the snaps the newspapers
were publishing, They showed Sev-
ille, ,Granada, Cordoba and Guer-
nica, the towns of the Spanish
Civil War, They showed the exact
course of the Yangtze, where the
Japanese had hit an American gun-
boat, They showed the route
through Austria along which Hit•
_ler'a troops were marching, They
located the small towns of the
Sudetenland in Czechoslovakia. A
little later they marked the un-
happy places of Hitler's first blitz
itt Western Poland, front Bud-
goszcs and Poznan to Zoppot and
Westerplatte by Danzig.
Soon, thereafter a than had to
turn to the maps of the. coastal
cities of Norway, Bergen and
Stavanger, of the roads through
Holland, of the English Channel
and particularly of its varying
width at various places, The list
of places searched for lengthened
and spread wide, from Dunkerque
and Dover to Coventry, Sidi Bar -
rani and Tobruk, 'Then to another
part of the atlas for Pearl Harbor
and a detailed map of the Bataan
Peninsula, and anyone could be-
come impatient with an atlas for
not showing everything in the
most minute detail. An atlas was
almost a necessity now, if only to
know the distance between a man
and the danger that could put an
end to all he cared for,
The maps of Western Euro;te,
of the North African coast, of the
Far East, were always open then.
The towns of Western Russia to
the suburbs of Moscow, the rout€s
through the Ukraine and to the
Volga were searched out on the
appropriate map. A man's eye
climbed the ladder up the Pacific,

Guinea, Bougainville, the Solontons.
Later the atlas came oft` the self

and Italian coasts and then the
towns of Normandy. 'Then Rema -
gen, the Oder River, and Dongo,
where Mussolini was shot, More
recently it has been the towns of
Indo-China and Burma, of northern
Greece, the deserts of Palestine
and the Bulgarian towns across

This generation has had to know
its geography, as a matter of life
and death, probably better than
any generation heretofore. To learn
it front an atlas when some new
trouble hits the headlines may be
one way to learn it, but it is a
grins way, Once an atlas used to
be a pleasant book—a book that
merely showed pleasant places to
visit and new seas to sail,

WIOAY SCllOO1,
LESSON
By Rev. R. Barclay Warren,
B,A., B,D,
Ezra, Interpreter of God's Word
Nehemiah 8:1-4a, 5-6, 8. 10, 18
Golden Text: Tltis day is holy unto
our Lord; neither be ye sorry; for
the joy of the Lord is your strength,
—Nell. 8:101).
Zerubbabel led the first band of
captives from Babylon to Judea in
458 B.C. Seventy-eight years later,
Ezra, a priest attd a scribe, returned
to teach the people, In toclay'.e les -
on we find the people asking Ezra
to give than the book of the law
of Moses. They made a pulpit, and
Ezra stood on it. He and his thir-
teen helpers "read in the book in
the law of God distinctly, and gave
the sense, and caused thein to un-
derstand the reading." This went on
for a week,
It was a time of happiness. They
were happy not merely because they
were hearers of the word, but be-
cause they became doers of the
word. They confessed their sins and
the iniquities of their fathers, Then
they could worship, They made a
covenant with God. They brought
in the tithes and offerings which
had been neglected. They observed
the Sabbath. Nehemiah, the ruler,
took a stern stand against those
who persised in doing their work on
the Sabbath and selling their wares.
Likewise the practice of intermar-
rying witlt the neighboring heathen
was publicly rebuked, That was a
great turning to God.
If only our nation would turn to
God's Word for guidance today) If
there were more Ezra's whose train
concern was to give the meaning
of God's Word to the people; de-
fense of their denominational doc-
trinal position being quite second-
ary, A national turning to God's
Word would result in a revival of
righteousness. May it soon conic)
He Barbers Royalty
Benedetto. Viccari is bald -treaded,
but that doesn't worry hint. He Inas
made Itis nacre looking after other
people's hair.
Anyone can drop into his May-
fair- hairdressing saloon, but his
appointment book reads like Who's
Who.
Thirty )'ears ago Ile came to
London with only a few shillings
in his pocket. Today fifty -six-year-
old Mr. Viccari is hairdresser to the
world's kings, princes, diplomats
and celebrities of every profecsiou.
After the first world war he was
just one of London's Italian bar-
bers. He moved front saloon to
saloon. It wasnt until ,• carr
thirties, when he was appointed to
Claridge's, England's top-ranking
hotel, that he achieved eminence.
Itis first famous client was the
Aga Khan.
Some clients sign his autograph
book, others read it. There is such
a collection of well -know names
scrawled across the pages that the
illegible ones are almost ignored.
A quick glance reveals the signa-
tures of ex -King Alphonso of Spain
(who would set•J a Rolls Royce for
Mr. Viccari to visit hint to cut his
hair), the Duke of Milford Haven,
Lord Anson, the late Jan Masaryk,
of Czechoslovakia, Sir John Ilar-
birolli, Anton Walbrook, Anthony
Asquith, several Indian princes, and
so many Ministers of the Crown
that the pages read like an imagin-
ary House of Commons roll call
spanning twenty years.
Dir. Viccari is a modest man and
confesses in his Italian accent that
he is bewildered by his own pres-
tige.
"Some people have put it down
to personality," he says, "but that's
too easy an answer. All I know is
that I enjoy hairdressing, it's an
art to me, and every customer is
someone different,"
A Precise Haircut
So determined is he to give the
finest haircut possible that he defies
a golden rule and sits down to his
work,
"That way," he points out, "1
can take my time and make sure
of a precise haircut."
Mr, Viccari will readily chat about
himself, but rarely about his clients.
He knows that, as the confidante
of kings, tact is Itis greate:.t asset.
Question hint further and he re-
plies with a smile: "I'tn still a
working man, One day 1'11 retire—
and maybe write the memoirs of
a barber,"
Tltey should be .worth reading.

ing back, This. practise dates back
to the early settlement days in time
United States when the fertile land
was cleared .-indiscrinminately and
cropped so intensely that in two
or three generations the top soil
was worn out, Then farmers moved
further west, took up more virgin
land and continued the process of
soil erosion, He likens. these early
intnmigrammts to "a plague of locusts
moving across the, continent"—the
amain exceptions being the Pennsyl-
vania Dutch who settled on the
. iand and enriched it by their good
farming.
Eventually agriculturists reali-
sed that something was happening
to what had been their good earth,
No longer was it producing time
bountiful crops to which they prev-
iously had been accustomed, An in-
tenti, reseach programme was
carried out and as a result, tmventy-
five years ago, a movement was
started to systemize farming, recla-
dam the impoverished land and stop
further soil erosion, But what Inas
been done is apparently still not
enough and Mr, Bromfield contends
that unless wasteful fanning meth-
ods arc changed" there will event-
ually be a shortage of food in the
S. A, He admits that such a con-
dition sounds fantastic but he also
reminds his readers that a few
generations ago such a theory was
Also fantastic to the people of India

to eat, Soil erosion not only means
poor financial returns for the farmer
but the loss of minerals in' the soil
also affects time health of a nation,
since it is impossible for any man
to be better than the food he eats,

Clover -- And. Beep
Roadsides are sweet now with
honeysuckle and clover, the' Warm;
sweet fragrance of summer at its
peak. Honeysuckle. begins to pass
its prime, though there w:ll be
blossom and lesser sweetness till
the asters bloom, But clover blooms
all summer long, a delight to bees,
a friend of time soil and a pleasure
to anyone who pauses to look,
One thing about clover; it takes
the soil as it finds it, sends down
eager roots, spends the whole sea-
son at a complex chemical job and
gives a new Supply of fresh nitrates
to the- soil it occupies, Clover re-
builds time soil, and is constantly
reaching out for drew soil to reclaim,
Give it , half a chance and it will
take over a gravelly roadside or
a worn-out field where fc'mv other
plants will grow, and in a few sea-
sons the clover has given it new
life, And all the while the clover
will cloak that soil in cool green,
•
brighten the landscape with its
'miniature sweat pea blossoms, and
feed cvcry bee within range.
The one thing clover needs to
thrive is cooperation of the bees.
Take away the bees and the clover
won't outlast the season, as Aus-
tralia learned long ago, For the
bees fertilize the clover blooms and
thus citable it to reseed Itself, On
the other hand, take away the
clover and the bees would be hard
put to fill their !rives. Clover honey
outweighs all other varieties, year
after year.
It would be a dull and less fra-
grant summer without the coopera-
tion of bees and clover, Together
they help keep the planet green
and sweet, with no thanks asked,
Mystery Of The
Mighty Midgets
One of the northland's most fas-
cinating puzzles is the mystery of
the "Little Men"—the dwarfs who
are said to haunt the barren stretch
beyond the Arctic Circle where be-
cause of the winds and sudden
storms, no other human could sur-
vive.
From generation to generation
Eskimos have handed down the
story to their children, as parents
in other lands relate the adventures
of "Alice in Wonderland" or "Jack
and the Beanstalk,"
Legend says that these dwarfs
are mighty men, Even though they
arc short they are supposed to be
able to carry time largest caribou
(dee?) on their backs, It is only
time huge caribou they hunt—not the
timid seal which is highly valued
by almost all other Eskimos,
For many years white men dis-
counted such stories as a • fanciful
bit of folk' lore, Then Dr, D.
Jenucss, a Canadian explorer, made
sevcial quick reconnaissances Into
the uninhabitable land and found

use the native ones, it might be
well to add just a little more sugar,

Girl Of 19 Wrote
Great Horror Tale
Many horror novels have been
written but, in my opinion, only
two have achieved immortality—
"Dracula" and "Frankenstein," The
former was written by a man of
the theatre, Brain Stoker, as the
result of a wager. "Frankenstein"
was written in a private competi-
tion and the author was a beautiful
talented girl of nineteen. She was
Mary Shelley, the wife of the poet,
writes "Sid," in Answers.
For the reason she wrote the
story we ntttst go back to 1816
when, after trying in vain for two
years to obtain her father's per-
mission to marry Shelley, the
couple eloped and spent their
honeymoon in France.
They took with them Mary's step-,
sister, Claire, and because Shelley
talked so much of his friend Lord
Byron, Claire fell in love with him.
Creating Man
In spite of the fact that Byron
had a very bad reputation as far
fur as the "ladies were concerned,
the began to correspond with hits,
Teach Children' Not To Fear
Lightning — But Respect It
Among the fears that have a
strong effect upon children, fear
of lightning and thunder claims a
special priority, Before a child
reaches the age when he learns to
understand the natural . causes of
an electric storm, he is prone to
become upset by the terrifying noise
and the light flashes.
Fears vanish only when know-
ledge conies. This knowledge should,
of course, be explained in the terns
of the child's understanding, The
child must be taught not to fear
lightning, But at the sante time
he must learn to respect its power
and Its possible danger.
The parents should avoid fright-
ening the child into respecting the
powers of lightning. Your explana-
tion should be on a rational basis,
should take the forst of explaining
(1) the causes of lightning, (2)
how lightning behaves, and (3) what
to do to reduce the chance of being
struck,
Following an easy -to -understand
explanation of what causes lightning
and - thunder, a chid is ready for
some factual knowledge and guid-
ance as to how to take care of
himself during a storm, We know,
for instance, that high objects will
more readily be hit by lightning.
If your child finds himself on high
ground during an electrical storm,
it's lntportant that he know enough
to go to lower levels where he
will be protected.
Besides high objects that attract
lightning, there are two other good
welcomers, or conductors. These
are water.or metal, During a storm,
bathers should get to dry land at
once, and one should not handle
any farni tools that have metal parts.
A spade, a hoe, or similar metal -
edged tool with attract a bolt of
lightning, •
A child shoud, be taught that in
extreme cases, hen he finds him-
self on high. gromtd„ during an
electrical storm, iris a wise thing
to drop to the ground and Ile there.
Should lightning stirke in the ini-
mediate'vicinity it will be deflected

tott*ards the nearest bush or tree,
because both of these are qn a
higher level than that of the ground.
The lower his position, the safer
•
he is,
In this connection, however, a
word of caution about seeking shel-
ter under a bridge, The bridge ;nay
shield one from the rain, but it will
serve as a great attraction for the
lightning,
• There are many ways of 'diverting
the youngster's mind froin thoughts
of fear where lightning is con-
cerned, One of then► is by rhymes,
Among the well-known rhymes that
have helped rid youngsters of the
fear of lightning are the following:
"I must never stand under a tree,
'cause if lightning comes it might
trike etc," And this one: "When
out in the open, lie on the ground;
when the lightning is over, alive
you'll be found,"
Another way to abandon fear is
to have it understood that when a
storm is approaching, the child's
job is to close all doors and win-
dows. I-faving hint pre -occupied
with something to do will take his
thoughts away from being fright-
ened by lightning.
It is of utmost iutportance that
the older members of the family
show poise and balance, Fear is
contagious, and any semblance of
panic on the part of the older folks
will quickly communicate itself to
the minds of the children.
If your child is afraid of light-
ning du not scold, do not nag, do
not ridicule) Educators now realize
that nagging, scolding, and ridi-
culing a child because he shows
signs of fear, do not in any way
lessen the fear or help the child.
In dealing with children who arc
afraid of lightning, appeal to their
imaginations. Tell them "ratan to
man" all you know about lightning
and_ explain clearly the thing all
people should do to protect them,
selves from lightning. This is the
only way you can gradually help
thein conquer their fears.

Eventually Byron invited her to
stay at his villa on the shores of
Lake Geneva.
Claire could not possibly make
the journey alone, so Mary and
her husband accompanied her, and
they rented a cottage near Byron's
villa. It was an idyllic holiday,
with picnics, boating on the lake,
and midnight bathing.
Byron fell in love with Claire;
for Shelley and his wife it was an
extension of their honeymoon,
There was one other member of
the party. This was Byron's doc-
tor, Polidori. F,very evening the
three men had long discussions,
with the two girls as a silent but
appreciative audience, •
One evening, Polidori mentioned
that he had seen a mechanical
than, made by Jacques de Vauca-
son, which could play fourteen se-
parate tunes on a flute and the
conversation turned to the possi-
bilities of snaking or creating Man.
Mary was rather shocked and
said that anyone who accomplished
such a monstrous feat would prob-
ably (lie of fright. The discussion
developed into an argument, and
finally Ilyron suggested a competi-
tion between the five of them, to
see who could write the most hor-
rific story.
The next day Claire, Byron and
Polidori started writing, Shelley
had refused to take part in the com-
petion; while Mary mooned around
trying to work out a plot. All she
could think of was the mechanical
flute player.
After a few days Byron gave up.
He was a man of quickly changing
moods, and once his enthusiasm
waned he tired of the idea. Claire
also gave up and the two of there
went for long walks;
Polidori persevered and finished
a story about vampires which was
eventually published.
Mary could not find a plot, and
one evening she went up to her
room undecided whether or •not to
give up too. She stood by rhe win-
dow looking out at the lake, but
moonlight, reflected front the water,
hurt her eyes, and she closed the
shutters.
It was at the moment, according
to her diary, that the plot came
to her; As she stood there in the
dark, figures seemed to take form
in front of Iter eyes.
She shut her eyes, but the fig-
ure persisted. Her imagination
took control and against her will
she was forced to watch the story
taking shape,
"I saw the pale student of unhal-
lowed arts kneeling beside the thing
he had put together, I saw the
hideous phantasm of a malt stretch-
ed out, and then, on the working
of some powerful 'engine, stir with
an uneasy half -vital motion."
Author Terrified
Her imagination showed the cre-
ator of this monster rushing away
in horror, praying that the spark
he had given to the Thing would
fade away. Finally, this man cre-
ator falls asleep, and when he
awakes thinks that it has been
just a nightmare. But he hears a
movement at his sides and secs—.
"the horrid thing stand at his bed-
side, looking on him with yellow,
watery, but speculative eyes."
Mary (lid not sleep that night,
and with the first light of dawn
she was putting down in words the
picture her imagination had shown
her,
Site called the scientist Franken-
stein. The monster had no name,
but she described it vividly as
eight feet high, with yellowed and
shrivelled skin, and colourless eyes.

stricken that he had a nervogp
breakdown and was ill for mo_at).
When he recovered the mutts/
had disappeared, He hoped it had
destroyed itself.
But two years later it reappeared
and et r angled Frankenstein's
younger brother)
No Stopping Her
Once site had started, Mary could
not stop, although, as she admit-
ted, she was absolutely terrified the
whole time she was writing. She
could not sleep, and spent every
available moment on the story,
knowing she would never know an-
other quiet or happy moment until
she had it on paper and out of her
system.
She made the monster demand
nate and made Frankenstein con-
sent. When the second monster is
almost complete, however. Frank-
enstein begins to think of the pos-
sible consequences to the world if
his monsters have the power of
propagation, IIe realizes that they
,night eventually destroy all human
life, and he smashes the second
monster to pieces.
He tries to slush the first one,
too, but it tells hits that although
it is his creation, it is also his mas-
ter, Frankenstein flees and the mon-
ster disappears in the snowy wastes
and is never seem again.
When at last it was published,
she exclaimed: "Olt, if I can only
frighten my readers as much as I
was frightened that night in the
Swiss cottage i'
Tailpiece: Mary wrote many more
novels, for after the untimely death
of Shelley in a boating accident she
had to write or starve. But she
never wrote another horror story,
Claire had a daughter by Byron,
but they were never married.
Eventually he left her, and she
died an old and embittered woman.
WHAT ABOUT A "FALL -
BY -FALL" ENCORE?
A Swiss radio commentator
plans to take a microphone with
him when he climbs the 14,780 -
foot Matterhorn, the greatest moun-
tain in the Alps,
He will give radio listeners a
step--by-step account of parts of
the ascent. Another commentator
will follow his progress front a ,
plane circling the peak.
The climbing commentator's first
broadcast will be from the Alpine
hut at the base of the jagged
"Pyramid."
His second will be after he has
been roped for the climb the next
day.
His third and fourth will be
made as he climbs the sheer peak.
His fifth will be from the two -
foot wide platform at the sum-
mit of the Matterhorn—a "razor -
edge" thousands of feet above the
surrounding green -white glaciers.
