But just the other day, the puzzle was solved—and, of all people, by the very man who Marks was just about due to battle for the cham- pionship. • • • • He is none other than Mickey Walker, who turned from hurling leather to pounding a typewriter, and who writes a most interest- ing department in The Police Gazette. And here is what Mickey has to say about Marks who, even if he wasn't Canadian -born, has roots in the Dominion. We haven't as yet read Marks' book which Walker refers to, but if it's as good as his fighting used to be, it's worth looking for. • • * Sid was a newsboy in the Limehouse district of London when World War I began. Al- though only fourteen years old, he enlisted in His Majesty's Navy, where he learned to box as the result of the oddest circumstances I've ever heard of. * • • Two years of Navy combat life turned Sid into a seasoned "tar." One day a German torpedo hit his ship. Sid was blown into the water, and when he was picked up by a British patrol boat, he couldn't move his right leg. • • * Rushed to a British Navy hos- pital he was still recuperating when the war ended. He even- tually left the hospital, with his leg still crippled, to join the crew of another battleship. A navy doctor advised him, "Plenty of real exercise will make your leg normal again." r On board ship Sid remembered the advice. One night, a boxing tournament was arranged for the members of the crew. Sid had never seen a boxing glove, but he entered the tournament with the idea of exercising his leg, As his opponent, he "drew" the ship's champion. « • * At the sound of the bell, Sid tore across the ring. He threw a wild right. Ten seconds later, he was the new welterweight champion of a British battleship. • * • In due time, Sid became a ci- vilian again. He had a strong de- sire to live in New York, and be- fore he realized it he found him- self on a cattle boat sailing for Canada, A wealthy Canadian farmer, who was a friend of Sid's father, met him at the dock. • • • A mutual admiration developed at once. In the following weeks, Sid plowed Canadian pastures on his new friend's farm. His dreams of New York quickly faded away. He learned to love the 'daily, routine of farm life. But one day, through no fault of his own, farm life faded away like Sid's thoughts of the Big City. • • 4 The fanner occasionally went to town and tried to paint it red. The town happened to be Mont- real, and he visited every tavern he came to, bragging in each one about his new farm hand's fistic abilities. He'd end every mono- logue • with the words, "Sid Marks, welterweight' champion of the British Navy!" • • • After one of these holiday sprees, the farmer had arranged for Sid to fight the welterweight champion of Canada six weeks later in the Montreal Arena. The results of this fight were similar to Sid's first title fight on board ship. From then on, he belted out nearly every man he fought. • • • On a trip to London after box- ing for two and a half years around Canada and the border cities of the United States, Sid won the British welterweight title. Later, he came to New York. * • • I held the world's welterweight crown at this time, and Tex Rick- • Yours for Physical Fitness • A Permanent Magnet Device that exerts a mag- netic influence on the body when brought into contact with it, Easy To Use: Results Reported by Users: • • • • • • • • • No No No No No No No No dosing lime•lable schedule preparation mixing plugging in recharging upkeep Nothing to remember or forget • Refreshing, uninterrupted sleep • Get up without an ache or pain • Stiffness in joints now past • 'Leg swelling all gone • No more cramps • Muscles supple • Better appetite • Clear head • Alert mind • Steady pulse • Feel years younger • Ready for anything -• Can really enjoy the good things of life again • Eases arthritic pains Introductory Offer $35.00 30 Days Only! veil also can fully enjos physical tltne.s, 111) In attached coupon and Bend your order In now for early delivery, MONEY BACK GUARANTEE If not satisfied after 90 days, return ATOMAG- NET and your money will be refunded in full.

But. Boo Boo Hoff, Philadelphia's leading matchmaker, wanted' Sid to, meet the welterweight K,O.. seiisation, Bobby Barrett, ' « « • Sid fought Barrett and , sent him the way of most of Sid's opponents, This established Sid as the number -one title contend- er, and gave Tex Rickard visions of promoting a big -money title match, But Sid suddenly dropped out of the boxing world, With Lou Darrow, he began to pro- mote wrestling on the West Coast, * • • It was not until 1948, several years after I retired from the ring, that I met Sid Marks. Act-' ing as my manager, he booked me to referee wrestling matches in California. • • * But that didn't end the am- bitions of the one-time Limey newsboy. He recently wrote a book called Newsboys Hall of Fame. Like Sid Marks, it carries a terrific punch. Rang His Doorbell Blew Up His Home A householder in Geneva went up to his - front door and pressed 'the bell. An electric spark set light to escaping gas and the flat blew up. Just another instance of an in- nocent action that started off a chain of events culminating in disaster. A customer in a Lincoln cafe struck a match. The place ex- ploded. How was he to know that a mouse had previously nibbled a large hole in a gas pipe? When an Australian adjusted a faulty carburaettor his car back -fired and set his hair alight. He rolled on to the verge of the road and started a fire which' burnt out 1,000 acres of grassland. The cat which curled up close to a stove in a French home only wanted to get warm. It got warmer than it bargained •for. When its fur caught fire it dived into a pile of hay and started a blaze causing damage estimated at $6,000. The cat, incidentally, still has eight of its lives left, A United States woman started to search for a coin she'd drop- ped. She moved the car under which it had rolled, the car hit a parking meter and a ouilding, breaking a window in •the: pro- cess. The coin cost the woman dearly—she had to pay $125 damages. When a two-year-old Ameri- can girl fell of a stool and broke her thumb, mother got her ready for hospital. Anxious to help, her four-year-old boy ran to open the door and cut his face on a glass panel. Worse fellow - ed. Slipping on the hospital steps, the mother broke her ankle. A milk bottle caused chaos in Kensington. Falling from a cart it scared a pony, which bolted in the path of a bus. The driver slammed on his brakes, shaking the passengers. The pony ram- med a confectioner's window. On the pavement an elderly woman collapsed. Who would imagine that a house would burn down merely because the kitchen shelf was shaky? In a Connecticut home a cake fell off the shelf on to a tap, turning on the water. The cake clogged 'the sink, the sink overflowed, and the water caus- ed alhort circuit which set the house alight. Watch out for bees! One flew into the cabin of a Twickenham trolley bus and made the driver's eye its target. He swerved. and the bus crashed into the para- pet of a railway bridge One front wheel hung over a six- foot drop and the occupants of a nearby house could see the bus suspended above them. Another bee blacked out half a town. It stung a Pennsylvania motorist on the nose, he rammed a pole carrying the power lines, and all the lights in the neigh- bourhood went out. There would seem to b: more to a bee than just its sting. Too Many Corpses Near Oklahoma City in 1933, a plane smashed into a hillside, killing everyone aboard. Four- teen bodies were found in the wreckage, But to the conster- nation of airline officials, their records showed just ten passen- gers and three crow men, thir- teen. Who belonged to the ex-, tra body? Police investigating unearthed some helpful facts: farmer Johnson Saunders had taken advantage of the opportu- nity that for most -men, dissatis- fied with their wives to the point of neuroticism, comes but once in 'a lifetime. Seeing the crash from his nearby, farm, he casual- ly walked into the kitchen, hit his wife Nana • over the head with a meat axe, . put the body into his whellbarrow, and mar- ched' it up to the still burning Plane. He then tossed it into the wreckage. Though farmer Saun- ders showed great imagination, he was the victim of a bad count, and was charged with murder.

ISSUE 35 — .1953 CIGARETTE TOBACCO TllFARM FONT Joklaweiii On the majority of !arms the production of vegetable canning crops creates a problem in res- pect to the maintenance of good soil structure and fertility. It is difficult to suggest tender types of rotation that might be follow- ed since size of farm, acreage of• canning crops, number of stock maintained and extent of other types of crop production are de. ciding factors in determining a practical soil management pro- gram. o * * Growing a relatively small acreage of canning crops on a general or dairy farm does not present a real problem in soil fertility maintenance, since it may be fitted into the longer rotations and 'sufficient manure may be available for the culti- vated crops. The real problem exists on smaller farms, of •where the stock population is small or absent, and manure is not avail- able and cultivated cash crop ,production is the major enter- prise. In such cases long term grass rotations are not economic- ally possible and yet soil struc- ture is dependent on replacing the plant fibre in the soil burnt up during the cultivation period. * * * With this in mind, a group of plots with different rotations of canning peas, tomatoes and sweet corn have been studied for a period of six years at the Smith- field Substation, Ont., on Percy fine sandy loam, In the four-year rotations without manure but with commercial fertilizer ap- plied to the canning crops, and in which a crop of tomatoes, peas, grain and a mixed clover -grass ,sod are grown, there was a small decrease in soil organic matter In a five-year period. In a simi- lar rotation, but with tomatoes replaced by sweet corn, and all the corn stover ploughed under, there was no reduction in soil organic matter. It appears that when the corn stover is returned to the soil, maintenance is not too serious a problem, In other four-year rotations in which three canning crops are grown and the land is in clover sod for one year by the device of seeding clover with the corn or peas, the' reduction in soil organic matter was no greater than in the stan- dard four-year rotation with two canning- crops. However, seeding red clover with peas or corn re - it's A Boy! — Ralph Kiner, star Chicago Cubs outfielder, holds up seven cigars signifying the weight of his son, born -recently at Mercy Hospital.

In these rotations a crop of tomatoes or a crop of corn is followed in the second year by a crop of peas, After the peas are• harvest- ed millet or Sudan grass is sown and the crop Is disked in- at the early flowering stage. 'Fall rye is then sown, which is disked in the following spring in prepara- tion for tomatoes or corn, In these two rotations twelve tons of manure per acre are applied , every other year. These rotations produced five canning crops in the five-year period compared to an average of three crops in other rotations. Despite this fact, there was an appreciable increase in soil organic matter, exchangeable potassium a n d soluble phos- phorus. W h 11 e it is true• that manure was applied in these two rotations 'the average annual ap- plication of six tons per acre is perhaps not beyond the supply available to the grower whose canning crop acreage is relatively small, • * * * While. the rotations have pos- sibly not been in progress long enough to -attach significance to differences in yield, it is note- worthy that yields of corn, peas or tomatoes were highest when- ever manure was applied in a roilition and the average highest yields were produced in the two- year rotations described above, * * .Fortunately people cannot be treated like bees or there might be some interesting develop- ments f r o m an experiment re- cently made by the Agriculture Division, Depi'tment of Agricul- ture, Ottawa, {, * /* , Treating bees with nitrous oxide gas apparently causes, them to lose memory of their old loca- tion, Normally when colonies of bees are moved short distances, as may be required for the pol- lination of certain crops or fruit trees, the bees tend to return to the old rather than the new loca- tion of the hive. • * * * In a test at Ottawa, six colonies of bees were gassed lightly with nitrous oxide, and . then moved a distance of some 500 yards to an orchard which required pol- lination, The bees did not return, as they normally would, to the original site but remained in the new location, * * * If later tests confirm this re- sult, beekeepers will be able to move their hives short distances to new areas of bloom in the same or adjacent fields; This will give more effective pollination of fruit and clover crops and cut down the distance the bees have to travel. * , * * Since the gas acts as an anaes- thetic on the bees it may be use- ful also to the beekeeper. in han- dling cross bees, It might even help the householder- get rid of unwanted wasp nests if it has the same effect on wasps. * * * • . Gassing 'the bees was accom- plit;hed by igniting , ammonium nitrate (one tablespoonful to two colonies), by placing the • powder on top of smouldering burlap or similar material in a bee smoker, and directing the resulting, gas into the selected .hives..

Wozniak push- es himself through the water with two ski poles which have cork floats at the end, He plans to "walk" the English Channel in the future, to nitrous oxides for periods up to three minutes had no toxic effect on the bees, * * # • The demand for beeswax has increased greatly during the past twelve year's,. Apart from the bee industry, it has many industrial uses and although there has been a large increase in ,production since the 1930's, the price has remained about double that of its former level, Much wax is wasted in many apiaries and a , good source of added revenue is 'overlooked, * * * A considerable amount of wax may be saved during sulilmer by putting 'all pieces of scrap comb found during colony manipula- tions behind the hive and, ga- thering thele up occasionally • throughout'the, season, Another minor source is the scrapings from the frames after 'the honey has been extracted from the• combs. Broken n n d warped combs and c o m b s with large areas of drone 'cells are another source of wax, especially in the years of the periodical clean-up.

The tubs should be put it least fifty yards from the nearest hive and preferably with a fence, hedge or other obstacle between the tubs and the bee -yard to prevent robbing, Tests made have shown that the weight of •the • cappings is reduced by approxi- mately one-half.when. thus soak- ed in water and cleaned by the bees, Old combs, scraps and cappings may be sent to any bee -supply company during winter months for rendering or they may be • melted and strained at home and the cakes of pure wax shipped out. If collection and rendering of the wax is well planned, it will form a source of revenue and will help to supply an indus- trial need. This bishop Bought Two Hundred Wives Dr, Francis Xavier Gsell, for- mer Ronian Catholic Bishop ot Darwin, now in retirement in Sydney, has 200 dusky aborigin- al "wives," He bought them with sticks of tobacco, rolls of. cali- co, pocket knives and other trade goods.

A power- ful native stepped out, waving a great spear and threatened tor' !fill • the white man • who had dared. interfere 'with • the *tribe's business, , Betrothed Before Birth Unarmed Dr, Gsell stood his ground. Calmly he pulled out a handsome knife and a dozen plugs of tobacco, Native deter- mination wavered. Soon bargain- ing began, and finally a price was determined on, What Dr. Gsell did on Bath- urst Island was to halt race sui- cide. Under the tribal laws the old nien each had from 10 to 25 wives, while the younger men, aged up to 30 and even 40, had no no women at all. There was no courtship as we know it. All the girls were affi- anced from the day of birth or even earlier, Young boys were allotted to mothers-in-law, These were baby girls, and the boys were entitled to all the girl -children of the mothers-in-law, Such an arrangement meant that they were old men before this came about, They might gain wives by in- heritance — from relatives, But the custom in such cases was to give the young women to old men and the old women to the young men. Courtship—With Tobacco - When Dr. Gsell arrived at Bathurst Island he found men of 60 with wives of 15, and boys of 15 with wives of 50 or 60. Children were rare. ' Owing to Bishop Gsell's prac- tice of "polygamy" over nearly 40 years, race suicide has been halted, His "wives" have been married to young men who have come under the mission's influ- ence, To -day, on 300 acres of fer- tile soil, the natives raise pigs, fowls and other stock, They have a thriving timber industry, ex- porting to the mainland a type of pine which resists the ravages of white ants, which destroy most other timbers. Courtship has come to the mission aborgines, The young man who wishes to marry a girl offers her a plug of tobacco. It she accepts and smokes it, the young man's chances are good. Living at the Sacred Heart Monastery in Kensington, Syd- ney, 80 -year-old Bishop Gsell still keeps in touch with his many "wives" and their families. Odd Jobs Who has the oddest job in the world? Not an easy question to answer, but we'd say the job of Alfred Johnson, a Southampton man, takes some beating. He's a "chain tapper." It's hid task to tap the links of the Queen Eliza- beth's enormous bow anchor chain, Why? For , exactly the same reason that a railway wheel tapper taps wheels -- to test their soundness. Woman with an extraordinary job is ,Mr's. June Lester, who earns money by screaming. Her wonderful, blood -curdling shriek once heard is never forgotten. It has been recorded for a sound effects library or broadcasting and films. Then there's George May of Hillingdon, Middlesex, who blows up lifebelts, Not long ago he blew up his 50,000th at London Airport for passengers. He also tests each whistle supplied with a lifebelt. No he doesn't do these jobs with his own personal puff. -He makes good use o an elec- tric air pump. NDAYSCII001, LESSON By Bev. it, Barclay Warren, B.A., B.D, Standards for Qhristian Leaders 1 Timothy 4: 7-16 Memory Selection: Neglect not the gift that is In thee . , medi- tate upon these things; give thy- self wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all. 1. Timothy 4:14-15. Paul's advice to "refuse pro- fane and old wives' fables," (KJV) or "have nothing to do with godless and silly myths" (RSV), Is timely today. Men are still bewitched by- a lot of silly superstitions. One • is constantly hearing of new one or old ones revived, Of course it is unwise to walk under a ladder. Common sense tells you that you may get spattered with paint or a brick or a hammer may fall on your head, But how can it bring good luck to throw pennies into a pool? Well, it's good for the man who has charge of the pool. Included in the advice to this young minister is the exhortation, "Be thou an example of the be- lievers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity," The world watches a minister closely. A slight indis- cretion on his part will occasion more criticism than the same act by one in another walk of life, Not that God has one standard of godliness for ministers and an- other for laity, but he who up- holds the truth of God in word is expected to uphold it also in deed, He must practise what he preaches. Some ministers have some secret sins, some bad habits that they wish concealed from their parishoners, This is not being a good example, What a man really Is, is soon reflected in his countenance. Truth will out. The veneer is thin, A man may pass for more than he's worth for lime, but soft he will be assessed for his real character. God can break everybad habit and cleanse from every sin, The way to forgiveness is the same for all. The ministry is a high and holy calling and what a man does is just as important as what he says. There is truth in the statement that "Your actions speak so loud that the world can- not hear what you say."

The prefabricated aluminum -panels making up the facade of the building were carted from a Long Island, plant to the site ready for installation. left,.workers start installation of the two -storey -high panels; at right, company officials look over a seven foot model of the new building. • By Arthur Pointer RC • tbaler.'� r .11111 PAGE 4 Needlecraft Shoppe BACK TO SCHOOL TOGS for the CHILDREN Blazers for girls and boys, 2 to 14 yrs., $3.59 to $4.50 Cotton Dresses and Skirts, 1 to 14 yrs., $1,98 to $3.98 Orlon Pleated Skirts, 2 to 12 yrs. , .$2,98 and $3.98 Cotton and Nylon Blouses, 1 to 14 yrs; $1,25 to $2.98 Wool Skirts and Jumpers, 2 to 14 yrs,, $2.25 to $5.75 Denim Jeans for boys and girls, 2 to 12 yrs. $.1,98 to $2.89 Mercury Nylons Butterick Patterns.

Our daugh- ter, 19, is in love with a grand young man, and her father has forbidden her to see him! She has known the boy two years. He is 23, intelligent and ambiti- ous, and helps support his widow- ed mother; but in another year 'he could marry, I know he loves our girl dearly. "Could it be, as you once said, that he would be jealous of any boy she dates? (She has never cared for anyone else.) He has always opposed her seeing him, but would give no reason. Re- cently he insulted the lad in our home, and he has not come back; I cannot blame him. My husband cannot think her too young, for we were married at 18 and 20. GIRL RESISTS "My daughter has never open- ly defied her father, but now she says if she cannot see the boy here, she will see him elsewhere. She is a fine girl, mature and responsible. If they elope, I feel it will be my husband's fault. "He is a reasonable' man in all other ways, and he has been devoted to the girl. But how can he think she will keep on loving him when he is so irrational?

LOST BOY FRIEND "Dear Anne Hirst: A boy want- ed my best girl friend to get hint a date with me, That she did, We had frequent dates, and I fell in love, A 'ew days before he left for the service, that sante girl made a play for hien, and got him. "She is noted for breaking up couples; I was too blind to see it, and had to find out for my- self the hard way. She can get any boy she wants, anytime. (And I know why.) She soon drops them, but they're always dumb enough to fall for her again. Now she feels so guilty she won't even talk to nye. I know the boy really liked me'un til she double-crossed me. 1 surely would like to have him back, though he is now in service. He promised he would write me, but so far I haven't heard,. and probably now I never will• "How can I get him back? I've tried going out with other boys, but they always fall short.

If this one had * thought as much of you as you * hoped, nobody else would stand a chance with hint, It is your misfortune that you fell in love; that does not mean, of course, that he did, Keep on dating other boys— you would while he is away, anyhow, They may not prove as exciting at first, but it pays to keep in circulation, especi- ally when you are so depres- sed; you'll be going places and doing things, and that of itself will cheer you. You cannot be sure this boy will look you Up when he comes home—though, of course, he may, You will do well to drop this girl immediately. She is the wrong sort, Others can think you are, too! A father may realize how he will miss his daughter when she marries, but a good parent de- sires only the girl's happiness..

Suffice to say there was very little work done around here other than the ordinary everyday chores—under the cir- cumstances it was quite ,enough. ,However, I did manage to get in a few hours in Toronto last Fri- day—actually more than 1 had hoped for. Not to have gone would have been a great disap- pointment as I had been invited to attend an exhibit of Hooked Rugs, which had come from al- most every W.I, district in On- tario in response to a competi- tion sponsored by the Salado Tea Company. The rules of the competition were simple; The rugs had to be original in design; hooked with rags and made by a W.I, group. Entries were limited to one rug from each district, previously judged to be the best entry from the various branches in each dis- trict. I wish you c old have seen those rugs . •, they were mar- vellous in design and of beauti• ful workmanship, Sixty-four in all, from points as far distant'as Thunder Bay, Timiskaming, Perth and Port Arthur. However, the winning entries were not an- nounced that day, nor will they be made public until the Fail, so we were able to amuse our- selves in trying to guess which would win the"awards. Two of the judges were present, Mrs. D, Mac. Pherson of Dutton and Miss Ina Hodgins of Carp. They knew which were the prize-winning entries but neither of . them so much as blinked an eyelid at the various comments passing back and forth, And yet some folk say women can't keep a secret! If only I.could describe each one of those sixty-four ruts — they were all so good. Many of the entries featured Coronation designs; others worked in the W.I. motto — "For Home and Country" and some managed a design around the letters — "ACWW." Some of the rugs were meant • for the floor—only you would hate to put your feet on them— most of these had designs with a border of flowers, maple leaves or fruit, or else a central motif against a neutral background, Others, obviously meant as wall decorations, had designs of great variety, Onein particular, from Lakeview W.I., Elgin County, was very original, featuring a tea- party. (That, surely, w,'ould please the sponsors!) There were also designs featuring birds, animals, houses, gardens, Fort William's. "Sleeping Giant" and even a freight boat going through the Sydenham River_ lift -locks, each central figure standing out in relief against a background of artistically blended colours. Which rug did I think the best? I wouldn't dare to say—I might show up' my own ignorance! However, in looking them over 1 picked out several which I would love to see on our own living -room floor, One was .from Winona W,I., pastel background with a border of grapes—(grapes from Winona, how' appropriate!) The fruit and' leaves were so beautifully shaded as to almost give a three-dimensional"etfect. There. were others, too, with floral designs that were 'very pleasing, as was the entry from Dublin W.I., in Halton County. The col- ouring in this rug was very del.- ISSUE el.. ISSUE 35. — 1953 icate—conventional border, and in the centre flying geese faintly outlined in a contrasting colour. Naturally I could go on and on, describing many of the rugs in detail. And yet the description of one would be true of thein all, In each case it was the work of a group of artists, some excell- ing in creating a design; others in the evenness of hooking; some in dyeing or in blending colours, or even in the tedious and exact- ing work of selecting and cutting rags into even strips—each type of work a necessary part of the whole. And so, at this exhibit, it was, possible to find not only good workmanship and creative effort but concrete evidence of good fellowship and cooperative enter- prize—requisites necessary all the way from rug -making groups to the work of the various councils of the United Nations, To tie in the U.N. with the W.I. seems only natural because some of the outstanding guests at this little' get-together were from foreign countries—and fel- low members of the ACWW. In native costume there was Mrs. de Mel and Lady Coomaraswam- nmy, two charming and distin- guished ladies frons -Ceylon, Lady Coomaraswammy is a candidate for the office of ACWW president, which becomes vacant upon the retirement of Mrs, Raymond Sayre, of Ackdrorth, Iowa, who has given this world-wide organ- ization such wonderful leader- ship, Also present was Mrs. Geerd van •Beekhoff, one of the five visiting delegates from Hol- land—and of course there were quite -a, number of officers pres- ent from our own W.I. Provin- cial Headquarters. BEANO FOR BABIES Parents in parts of South Af- rica were puzzled by the sudden appearance, insidetheir babies' rattles, of growing beans. Later it was discovered that the manufacturers had enclosed ordi- nary . beans inside the . plastic shells of the rattles. When babies sucked and wetted the rattles, the moisture caused the beans to germinate! News From Paris A b o u t Co m ing Styles..... All important Paris fashion openings have now been held, and we know what women are expected to wear for the coming autumn and' winter. Once again Christian Dior has proved to be the most daring of thein all, and worldwide controversy has been aroused by his skirts, all of 16 inches from the ground, or just long enough to cover the knees. So much interest has centered upon this matter of hemlines that a false impression has been created,' the impression that hemlines are the only aspect of the fashion picture that matters. This confuses many women who see the new line and think of it as a revival of 1925 styles, Actu- ally, the whole new Dior sil- houette, "the cupola or dome line," is of primary importance, since it signifies the possible re- vival of full, as well as short, skirts in the future. Considerable Controversy For the moment many buyers, fashion reporters, and above all, the general Paris public, are critical of this new line and the ultra -short skirts. Most other houses have ' shown distinctly longer hemlines and have em- phasized, almost without excep-. tion, the slender, • tubular type of skirt, the well molded—some- times nipped-in—waist, topped by,a bodice which is the focus of interest, In some instances this general silhouette evokes thoughts of the Empire line; elsewhere it is dis- tinctly more "princess" in feel- ing. Most distinguished, elegant, and becoming collection of all is that of Balenciaga, • whose rank and position in the world of Paris haute couture makes him a fit- ting rival to Dior as far as ideas are concerned, Sloping shoulders and width across' the bodice, slen- der skirts, and unaltered, if not slightly longer, hemlines express this designer's idea of true els' gance. On one point all designers, Dior and Balenciaga included, are unanimous, and that is the value of the bulky, straight coat worn as a contrast over slender frocks, Coats with this same measure of circumference, liter- ally bell -coats in many cases,' are put over full -skirted Dior frocks. Curiosity Appeal Hubert" de Givenchy describes his line as the "Mysterious Line," wherein tubular skirts often give a false impression of width with folded panels; dramatically col- ored dresses are concealed be- neath somber gray or black coats, and novel printed satins used for winter afternoon and evening dresses have mysterious designs. Some are inspired by marbles, by rock -formations and such stones as malachite. Amber pro- vides the motif for a golden-yel-' low clouded' design, Henry a la Pensee has looked to "point de Beauvais" embroid- eries for certain trimmings on blouses and accessories. Con- trasts in fabric are to the fore in black ensembles. Castillo, designing for Jeanne Lanvin, shows pastel - colored satin evening dresses topped by pastel colored velvet stoles to match. Embroideries are mainly stylized and may repeat the patr terns of: the 19th.. century da- masks, or the inlaid designs found on • Japanese screens. Smoother Fabrics General Maggy Rouff, with her decided princess line, • molded to a high waist and introducing the cur- rent width and softness in the upper bodice, favors satin -fin- ished broadcloths, some of theca printed with close -packed black patterns on jewel -colored grounds to simulate brocades. Fabrics with a brilliant finish are much employed. Wool and mohair overcoatings brushed to fleecy finishes glisten in the light. Jean Desses uses many of these, as well as satin -finished broadcloths featuring black de- signs on tobacco and nut -brown grounds. The "guitare line" ex- presses this designer's feeling for curved shoulders, nipped - in waists, and curved hiplines be- low which are flat skirts drawn in slightly at the hem. Dresses for evening feature three distinct general lines: sten- der and tubular, fuller with flat skirt -fronts and fullness drawn to the back in movements which are often reminiscent of bustles; and, of course, the short type of evening dress which may have a tubular -line skirt, or be fully flared all round, Evening hem - lengths vary from a long calf to ankle length (Christian Dior pro- vides the exception with his al- most knee-length hemlines in this type of dress.) ARMY WOULDN'T PAY DOUBLE Pte, Wm. Rodriguez wasn't at all pleased with the way the Army was caring for the domes- tic side of his career, He decided to register his complaint with the police, After listening to his tale of woe they promptly arrested him —for bigamy. The root of the trouble was that the Army had refused to accede to his request for marriage allowance for both his wives!

"Why do I get h o l l o w pickles?" many young house- wives enquire. Softness and hol- lowness may be caused because the vinegar used was not strong enough, or the brine too weak. Check the label of the vinegar bottle to be sure the vinegar is 4%—unless recipe instructs you differently, Pickles such as dills will also become soft if they are stored in open containers and pickles exposed above the brine. * * 4 A note about spices: Wonder. ing how to avoid the darkening of pickles that ground spices are bound to bring about? Use cold kitchen logic and place whole spices in a bag, or tie in a piece of muslin and lower away into the pickle -pot. Merely remove bag before transferring pickles to jars. * 4 Pickling Statistics, hn using coarse pickling salt (not iodized), It is handy to know that the av- erage weight of a cup of salt is about 10 ounces or % of a pound ,, * * Don't ignore your pickling - time tools. The type of cooking utensils you select will influence the colour of the pickles. For best results, use enamelware, aluminum and stainless steel. Spoons? You can't go wrong with wooden, stainless steel or alum- inum, * * « Utilize dry mustard this pick- ling festival, It's a good cook's trick to enliven winter -bound meals, Here's a line-up of the wide, choice of recipes from which you may select: Small Cu- oughly and then rinse, To steril- ize, cover with cold water, bring slowly to boiling point, boil 20 mins, Keep jars in water until ready to fill. Remember too, large mouthed jars are easy to fill, * * * Are you a "working woman" or maybe just a hard-working woman? Here's a pickling pro- ject that involves little, time and effort, Alternate layers or raw sliced onions and green tomatoes in a crock, add coarse pickling salt and your favorite array of spices, Place a heavy weight atop this. After several days, turn to them again and drain juice, add vinegar and sugar, What have you created? Crisp, interesting, uncooked pickles. . * * * It Is always wise to concentrate on one type of pickles In a pick- ling session, Don't try to rush your pickles. Small quantities too, spell pickle per.lection. Here's a dependable, delicious Mustard Pickle Dressing to add after the vegetables are prepar- ed; Mix 1 cup flour, 6 table- spoons dry mustard, 1 tablespoon turmeric, Add enough vinegar to make a smooth paste. Add 2 cups sugar and more vinegar '(2 quarts in all,) and boil until thick and smooth. • * * * Do you realize that you can prepare pickled cantalope just as you can watermelon, Indeed you can—peel cantalope, de -seed it, run for the cookie -cutter once more to create those intriguing shapes from the pulp of the can- talope, Finally cook in similar syrup as that for watermelon pickles, * « * Some pickles must be sealed airtight, for instance Tomato Chili Sauce, or Chili Sauce from cumber Pickles, Mustard Beans, • Celery Relish, Good Olde Home- made Mustard Pickles, Uncooked Pickle, Tomato Catsup, Carrot Relish and Apple Chutney. * * 4 Some sure -sugar facts in pick- ling: Sugar is used in nearly all pickles, One of the main causes of shrivelled or tough pickles, sterns from adding the sugar too rapidly, Well -cured cucumbers lake up sugar faster than uncur- ed or poorly cured cucumbers And give a better textured pickle. * M * Argument: Why should 1 make pickles when the store shelves are stocked with them? For the fun of it; for the pride of it; for the art of it. • Horne pickled goods make unique gifts — buy small, attractive jars that can be put to use afterwards; paint flower designs on them with glaze paints, after the pickles are pre- pTred and jarred. To Jar Your Memory: You won't be a perfect pickier until your technique is perfect in the Jar Department. Kinds of Jars: vacuum• sealed metal covers for most pickles (new covers each season, please). The rubber rings on these jars will also have to' be changed each pickling "do". Preparing Jars: Inspect care- fully, discard .those with the slightest nick, run finger around edge to detect nick or crack. Test rubber ring by folding the ring double, press firmly, Good rub- ' ber' does not crack. 1Vashing Jars: do this thor- MERRY MENAGERIE 1.10 .17:14.4 ro...11114 "li'e's going through that 'King Arthur -knighthood' phase!" • fruits, and various kinds of rel- ishes. However, pickles such as Mustard Pickles, Dills, Green Tomato, Pickled Onions may be kept in crocks, Although they require a close -fitting cover, they need not be sealed airtight, If you put the above pickles into jars, you may cover them with heavy brown paper and tie se- curely with wet string, They will. keep * o' * Vinegar Quiz: which variety is the choice for pickling? Your selection of cider vinegar (made from apple juice) or white vine- gar, is a matter of your family's good taste. " Either are ideal for pickling, Cider vinegar has a mel- low flavour; white vinegar may be preferred when making light coloured pickles such as onions or cauliflower. * «4. You must be sugar -wise too, in pickling, Watch your variety and amounts. White " granulated Is your common friend in autumn pickling, but once in• a blue moon, golden brown sugar is preferred in some pickles. Use your own good taste—you'll know . when you are seeking a different subtle flavour in your" pickles. CAUTION: If you are over- generous with the sugar ladle your pickles will be shrivelled. * « * To preserve vegetables .in coarse pickling salt: BEANS — 1 lb, coarse slit to 4 lbs, beans PEAS — 1 lb. coarse salt to 5 lbs. peas CORN — 1 ib, coarse salt to 4 lbs. corn Method: blanch vegetables 3 mins. — at simmering temp. (180 degrees F.) Chill in ice. cold water, Cool vegetable to approxi- mately lukewarm (60 degreesF,) Before salting, Drain thoroughly.

Patriot Honored—A proud smile brightens the wrinkled face of Madame Aucouturier as a medal is pinned to her dress by Admiral Auboyneau at Saigon. The aged patriot was honored for assistance to French and Viet Namese forces in Indo-China. Bloody Nose Was Making of Champ Many years ago there lived a fighter famed far and wide as the Nonpareil, the original Jack Dempsey, middle -weight cham- pion of the world, While in San Fransisco one day, he dropped into the gymnasium of an ex- clusive athletic club for a work. out, Unable to find a sparring part• ner, ' the Nonpareil sought out the boxing champion of the club and asked him wliether he would care to go a few rounds with him. The club champion was a tall slim dignified -looking bank clerk. The invitation from the great champion awed the young . man but he eagerly accepted the chal- lenge. It was an opportunity not to be missed, not even by an amateur: For a while the two men spar. red easily with the amateur hold- ing his own against the middle- weight champion, Then sudden- ly, the Nonpareil brought up a hard right flush to the generous- ly proportioned nose of his ad- versary. The blood gushed from the wounded member. Fists swing- ing wildly, the young man lost his head and sailed into the great Nonpareil, determined to reduce him to powder. The champion cleverly side- stepped, clinched, and pinned his opponent's arms to his sides, "Cool off, son," he whispered soothingly, "I'm sorry I gave you a bloody nose. Come on, let's be friends," The words calmed the amateur quickly, He left the floor for the dressing room and began to change. A few minutes later the Nonpareil joined him and threw a fatherly arm around his shoul- ders. "Your're not a bad fighter, son," he said, "You have the spark of. a champion. Take my advice and go into the ring. I'm sure there's a great future ahead of you, I'll help you all I can." The twe men became fast friends. They boxed together of- . ten and the eager ,youpg ama- teur learned all that the Non- pareil could teach him of the art of fisticuffs. Theboy was an apt and will- ing pupil, So well did he learn his chosen trade that, in time, he burst upon the sports world with a new kind of boxing magic, the cleverest boxer yet seen am- ong the heavy men of the ring. The day came when the former bank clerk flung out his drama tic challenge to the champion of the world—John L. Sullivan! His impudence was met by jeers, laughter ' and abuse. This danc- ing master, this. dude, this softie, in the same ring with the great John " L? Ridiculous! In twenty-one bloody rounds, the challenger stabbed . and par- ried, till• the champion's face was a bloody mess. Finally the grand old champion went down, knock- ed out by the young upstart. And it was a bloody nose that led the dignified young bank clerk to that moment in the ring that is every fighter's goal—the cry of the announcer when the champion has sunk into the dust of defeat: "The winner and new champion—James J. Corbett!" PLASTIC .VALVE FITTED TO HEART A severe attack of rheumatic fever in her childhood left Mrs. Betty Stilleman, of Beverly Hills, with a defective heart valve, "Shortness" of breath and ex- treme fatigue , made life miser- able for her. Doctors studied her case, and finally a. surgeon penfformed a new operation involving an arti- ficial valve ,made of plastic and shaped rather like a bottle, This two-inch "valve" was inserted intothe heart to replace the de- fective natural, one and performs its job perfectly. Opening to let blood surge through. it then closes to prevent any backward flow, Iron Curtain Tales An' urchin in Slovakia was be- ing catechized by a Soviet in- spector, "Who is your father?" queried the inspector, "The in- comparable Stalin," proclaimed the urchin, "And your mother?" "The incomparable Soviet Union," said the urchin in the same parrot -like tone. The in- spector allowed himself the shadow of a smile, and asked, "What would you like to be when you grow up?" The urchin answered fervently, "An or- phan." A Budapest merchant, travel- ing through Russia and border- ing states, sent his friend a series of tell-tale postcards. The first read: "Greetings from Free Mos- cow," the second, "Greetings from Free Warsaw," the third, "Greetings from Free Prague." Then there was a month's silen- ce, after which a final message arrived, postmarked Paris. This one read "Greetings from Free Rabinowitz." Three prisoners at a labor camp in Czechoslovakia engaged in surreptitious converse. Whisper- ed the first prisoner, "I'm here because I was suspected of being in sympathy with Radek." The second "reported, • "I'm here be- cause I was said to be plotting against Radek."

Gardiner, Federal Minister of Agriculture, must ` have been right when he said in his cam- paign: "The farmers never had It so good, they are making more money than ever before. There are no surpluses and the British markets are not lost." Not only he himself re-elected, but most of his colleagues with him. Only in Saskatchewan did the farmers really think it was time for a change, although they returned Mr. Gardiner to his job in Ottawa. Benson's Nightmare, This means that Canada's eco- nomy will continue to be geared to that of the United States. It might be interesting therefore to look and see how agriculture is faring South of the 40th parallel. Anthony West in his "Letter from New -York" in Saturday Night describes the "nightmare" of Mr. Benson, U.S. Secretary of Agriculture, caused by this year's bumper crops of wheat, corn and cotton. He says that the%rought (in Texas and Colorado) and the farm surpluses are forcing Mr. Benson to "slap on more of the controls his party was calling 'creeping socialism' last fall, and pay out more federal aid." Admittedly there is not de- pression—yet—but it is evident "that the slightest deviation to- wards a free market and the re- laxation of Democratic buying and support policies will produce one." Something Dynamic On his return to Washington from a tour through the country recently, Mr. Benson was given a lecture by a group of Repub- lican Congressmen who thought that "he wasn't doing enough to ensure their re-election in '54" and who wanted "something dynamic from him to sweeten the voting farmers." Instead of holding 'up to them their refusal of Mr. Eisenhow- er's proposal to use the huge crop surpluses in Government stores as "propaganda give-away material" in famine and distress areas to tight growing Commun- ism, instead of plugging for the $150 million appropriation for drought relief, Mr, Benson point- ed to one "principal . difficulty which faced him." He wanted legislation enabl- Bulldog Gets A Nervous Breakdown Because Of Mistress's Driving With deft fingers the white - coated London' veterinary sur- geon examined the spaniel the small boy had brought to him with the statement, "I think he has a sore back, sir." "Your dog," said the surgeon, "has a slipped disc. We shall have to operate." That afternoon they did, using the technique.that surgeons use on human beings with slipped discs, In the same animal hospi- tal a retriever, seriously ill with pneumonia, was being given in- jections of penicillin under an oxygen tent. It is all part of the extension of the benefits of medicine and dentistry to domestic animals. One United States veterinary surgeon hps even claimed to have cured an English bulldog of that fashionable complaint of modern life — a , nervous breakdown. The cause was a_ mistress who drove a motor car too quickly for his nerves. In laboratory tests at Princeton University, in the United States, pigs have been made jittery' and neurotic after being trained to do difficult tricks. And Professor David M. Levy of the same university :tells of a dogthat started limping be- cause it was jealous of a new baby in ,the house and wanted to attract attention, Wild animals are cinnparative- ly free from disease, Their, life is rougher and they have no lengthy old age; As, soon as they become unfit for the struggle, for life they die or are preyed upon by other. animals. To -day, veterinary surgeons cure dogs of kidney diseases, paralysis, tuberculosis and other illnesses. United States veterinary sur- geons have been transplanting corneas from slaughtered ani- tnals, to living ones, Birds benefit, too. Canaries have their colds cured with drugs. Soft foods bring on dental caries .in animals. Three - cows fitted with false . teeth were re- . cently exhibited at the All Union Agricultural Show at Moscow. The cows were brought from the Ukraine. to display the dentures, and .Russian papers , acclaimed the experiment ,as of national Im- portance. A number of valuable Austral. Ian Merino stud rams recently developed pyorrhoea, due, no doubt, to a somewhat artificial diet. Dentists were calledin and gave the rams, some of them worth up to $10,000, t h e treatment that is often given to human sufferers from pyorrhoea. The dental surgeons performed what is called a gingevectomy— that is, the puffy upper parts of the gums were cut away . under an anaesthetic. The rams are now reported to be chewing happily. Before long the old notion of looking for a gun when a race- horse breaks a leg may be dis- carded, The Veterinary School of the University of Pennsylvania has been scoring over fifty per cent, successes in healing frac- tures, Even this hitherto miraculous bone mending is antiquated be- side the record of Peter Wehner. a dentist. Just before the war Wehner was attending a race meeting near Cincinnati. A favourite, Prince,Pine, stumbled and broke his left foreleg. There was the. usual call for a gun. Wehner's wife found herself running down the track, calling out, "You must ing him to get rid of the 184,- 000 Democratic employees still iss the Department of Agriculture and to replace them by Repub- licans. Then everything would b. all right. More than Doubt All he actually did was tighten up the regulations against the importation of Canadian cheese. Mr, West expresses "morn than doubt" that a cabinet including men like Benson is "capable e holding off a depression." 'Canadian farmers may find in the not toodistant future that they have been betting toe heavily on the wrong horse.

She's just dwarfed by one of the "king-sized" marion- ettes which are attracting visitors to Romp, Italy, this year, Up to five feet tall and weighing as much as 35 pounds, the dolls have been'clashing swords in a show depicting the Crusades. Some of the dolls are valued at $1,000, not shoot him!" ' The veterinary surgeon said nothing could be done, When a racehorse breaks his leg there is one recognized way of setting it. The horse must be hoisted 'in a sling for two or three weeks in order to take its weight off the injured leg, Lungs and liver cannot stand the strain, and the wretched animal usually dies of pneumonia long before the bone knits, The dentist and his wife took up the challenge. They went home in a float with Prince Pine. And there luck played its part, as it has done so often in im- portant discoveries. Wehner set the leg and made a cast for it with the plaster dentists use for making the moulds of bridge -work. It set quickly, and was so hard that Prince Pine's kicking couldn't chip it. And it buttressed the leg so firmly that the horse could set it down within a day. Prince Pine raced again, and all America learned his story. To- day Wehner has twenty horses whose lives he has saved. A novelty in animal surgery reported from America is the "de - scenting" , of skunks. These make charming pets—but for one thing. Now vets are removing the scent glands, and everybody is happy. PACE 8 17ry nrrtrWALLACE'S s --Phone 73 Boots Shoes WE HAVE A FULL STOCK OF BROADCLOTH AND PRINTS ALWAYS ON HAND.
