Whether you serve your pot roast with potatoes, rice, or dumplings, or cook it with fruit, vegetables, or spices, remember that the most important guide to follow in cooking it is a low temperature. This keeps the Juices and flavor in the meat, cuts down shrinkage, makes the meat more tender, and prevents burned fat drippings, * * * Pot roasts — rump, round, or chuck — are best when roasted in moist heat. The general rule is to season meat, dip in flour, then brown in a small amount of fat. Cover and cook slowly on top of stove or in a 350° F. oven, in juices from meat or in a small amount of added liquid (liquid is usually watbr, but it may be milk, cream, tomato juice, or soup), Cook until fork -tender. A pot roast weigh- ing three pounds (at refrigera- tor temperature) will need about 3 hours after browning. For this pot roast with vege- tables, thicken the cooking liquid for gravy. It serves 6-8. BEEF POT ROAST 3-4 pound beef arm pot roast* 2 tablespoons flour 2 teaspoons salt 34 teaspoon pepper 3 tablespoons lard or drippings )4 cup water 6 medium potatoes 6 stalks celery Dredge roast with seasoned flour and brown on all sides in lard or drippings. Add water, cover and : simmer on top of stove or in 350° F. oveo for 2 hours or until tender. Add vegetables and continue cook- ing until vegetables' are done. Serve. on . platter or chop dish surrounded by vegetables (pic- tured). Garnish with parsley. * * * If you'd like to omit vege- tables and serve pot roast with dumplings, try these Dumplings for a new look. The trick in cooking dumplings is to cook them in steaming broth and serve them as soon as possible. It is important that the lid of the kettle remain on tightly throughout the cooking period. There's no peeking allowed! If you're in doubt about your lid fitting tightly enough, cover kettle first with a clean cloth, then put on the lid. (Tuck cor- ners of cloth up on lid to pre- vent burning.) DUMPLINGS 2 cups sifted flour 3 teaspoons double-acting baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons shortening Ig cup milk (about) 1 cup chopped beets Sift together dry ingredients, Cut in shortening. Add milk and beets quickly to dry mix- ture. Stir just until combined to very soft dough. Drop by spoon- fuls info boiling broth, Cover tightly and cook over low heat 15 minutes. Serve at once, * * * Rice with pot roast is good, too. Prepare the rice this way: RICE TO SERVE WITH POT ROAST • 4% cups hot, cooked rice 1 can (11/ cups) condensed cream of mushroom soup IA cup water 1 pimiento finely chopped Mix together the mushroom soup and water. Heat to boil - CHOW TIME Mrs, Shirley Wardlow handles formula by the gallon on her job, She fills 2000 bottles at a time for feed• ing the 315 visitors at the Los Angeles General hospital, ing, Add chapped pimiento. Stir in hot, cooked, rice. Serve on one end of platter with roast on other end, or arrange in a cir- cle around the roast, * * * Dried prunes and apricots add a piquant flavor to pot roast, Here's a roast that is both spiced and cooked with fruit, SPICED POT ROAST 3-5 pounds chuck or rump roast 2 tablespoons fat 2 cups water 3 tablespoons mixed pickling spices r 1 cup each, dried apricots and dried prunes 1 teaspoon s'tTar Brown meat in hot fat in heavy skillet; add water and spices. Cover l'ehtly and sim- mer 3-31/2 hotrs or until fork tender. Durina. last hour of cooking add apricots, prunes and sugar. * * * Serve this sweet-sour pot roast with buttered, cooked peas and turnips. This serves 6-8, SWEET-SOUR POT ROAST 3-5 pound beef roast 2 tablespoons fat 1/2 cup sliced onion 1 cup vinegar I/ cup brown sugar, firmly packed ' IA teaspoon nutmeg 8 mediu,n turnips 2 cups cooked peas Butter Brown roast in fat in heavy kettle. Add onions and cook until transparent. Add vinegar, sugar, and nutmeg. Cover tight- ly and simmer 3-3% hours or until fork tender, Thicken liquid for gravy. Serve with the vegetables, Swiss Steak A Swiss steak is cooked in the same manner as 'a pot roast. Usually it is round steak but it may be cut from the rump or chuck. Season the meat with salt and pepper, sprinkle with flour, and pound meat with edge of a heavy saucer, Brown, cov- er with tomato juice or toma- toes, and simmer. Add sliced onions for the last half hour of cooking, if desired, Serve the' gravy over the meat, )1IJAY SCIIOOI LESSON R. Barclay Warren, B,A., B.D. Malachi Calls for Righteous Living Malachi 3:1-6, 13-18 Memory Selection: Have we not all one father? Hath not one God created us? Why do we deal treacherously every man against his brother? Malachi 2:10. Malachi, thelast of the minor prophets in the order in which they appear in to Old Testa- ment, wrote his little book some time during the period of Ezra and Nehemiah at a time of re- ligious declension. It may have been during Nehemiah's absence from Jerusalem, (See Nehemiah 13:6). Malachi predicts the corn- ing of John the Baptist and the coming of the Messiah. Malachi's first rebuke is di- rected against the priests, They have given their service grudg- ingly. They wanted pay for ev- ery little task they. did. They offered polluted bread a n d maimed' beasts to the Lord; such they would not offer to their governor. Then Malachi reproved the people. He predicted judgments upon them for their sorcery, adultery, lying, oppressing the hireling, the widow and the fatherless and turning t h e stranger from his right. More- over they did not fear God, They robbed him 'by withholding the tithes and offerings. But in every dark age there is a faithful remnant. "They that feared the Lord spake often one' to another: and the Lord heark- ened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written be- fore him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon his name." These are as precious jewels in the sight of God. He will protect them, Malachi's message is timely for today. One clergyman when called to conduct a funeral re- minded the bereaved of the money it was costing him. Min- isters must have money the same as other people. But if their ser- vice is given with money in mind it isn't worth much. They do not have the spirit of Jesus. He said, "Love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping . for nothing again; and your re- ward shall be great, and ye shall be called the children of the Highest," Luke 6:35, Mal- achi's rebukes to the people are timely, too. ...

Ten Years' Search For Lost Sister It took Mrs, Florence Stevens, now sixty-three, thirty years to save 28,000 threepenny bits in jam tins. Everytime the tins be- came full, she took the money to a bank, Finally she had saved £350 needed to pay for a visit to her four married sisters in Califor- nia. And the other day she left London Airport by Stratoeruiser to meet them for the first time in nearly half a century. Mrs. Stevens, whose home is in Walsall, Staffs, plans to spend six months in the United States as the guest of her sisters. She says she thinks the reunion well worth the 28,000 threepenny pieces. The truth about reunions of long -parted relatives is often stranger than the most imagina- tive author could devise in a novel. Take the case of the two bro- thers who were united in Sydney through a dispute in a taxi after having not seen each other for thirty-one years. Edward Bell and Robert Bell, Scotsmen, had lost track of each other before the first world war and neither had the least idea where the other lived. Edward Bali, who had been farming in Queensland, went to Sydney and hailed a taxi to take him to a certain hotel, where he had stayed some years earlier. In George Street he fejt sure he was going the wrong way. He declared — incorrectly—that the hotel was, in Elizabeth Street, The pair argued. The driver asked his passenger to show him his room ticket to see if the ad- dress of the hotel was on it. When he examined it he found that the passenger was his bro- ther, Stepping on to a Brighton bus in March, 1938, a woman was startled by a cry of "Laurel" At the same moment a passenger jumped up and embraced her. The stranger proved to be her younger brother who had been missing for forty-one years. He had recognized his sister by their mother's locket which she was wearing round her neck. For ten years Larry Dalinski, of .the U.S. Merchant Marine, had lost track of three of his sisters, In city after city, after his ship had docked, he picked up local telephone books and directories and spent hours scan- ning them vainly for their names. In the summer of 1948 he de- cided to take a long look through the New York and Chicago di- rectories. It was then that ne found them. Brother and sisters spent the rest of his holiday to- gether and when he left•to re- join his ship they all agreed to have an annual reunion for the rest of their lives. Raindrops ' Rain is good for the skin and circulation. There is no finer complexion (,vash than splashing raindrops, uncontaminated by city dust and grime. One of Britain's greatest -ever rainstorms swamped a vast area of Norfolk in 1912. In a night and a day 60 million tons fell upon an area of 3,500 square miles. And nobody has ever properly explained why, at Geneva on May 31st, 1838, rain fell heavily for six minutes from a complete ly clear sky. Superstitious people in Mexico believe that the "Rain God" lives in a deep well at Yucatan. Hun- dreds of years ago, lovely girls were sometimes sacrificed to the god by being thrown into it, During a heavy rain shower. at Gibralter in May, 1915, a cloud belched forth, millions of tiny frogs which had been sucked up from a lake twenty miles away. Black rain fell in London in 1913, staining all it touched with soot. Some of the drops were found to contain pieces of carbon an eigth of an inch long. World's rainiest place is Cher- rapunji, in Assam, India, where 600 inches of rain a year is not unusual. 1'it10E OF BACON HAS TRIPLED SINCE 1959 In 1953 the average price of bacon and sides at meat pack- ing plants reached a record 59.1 .,cents per pound, more than three times the avernee price of 18 8 cents in 1939. The bulk of the increase has occurred since the war, the 1015 price averaging 23.5 cents per pound HE LIVES TO AID THE POOR & HELPLESS - Louis the Kangaroo was a fine middleweight, but his box- ing career in Paris didn't last • long. A young woman side- tracked him from it, He toured the provinces as sparring par- tner. Then came the war, and prison camp. On his return he'd lost both his girl friend and his famous footwork, so he roamed from one boxing ring to an- other, teaching beginners, then sweeping the arena and looking after equipment, To keep "in shape" he began taking dope. The club threw him out, hIe hung around sport- ing cafes, meeting other has- beens like himself who were available for any kind of match. Then came a fight in which he knocked out his opponent, fought the police like a mad- man, and got six months' jail. At forty-three, with raucous voice, broken nose, red face, thick eyelids, low, deeply fur- rowed forehead, he looked much older, But his great body had muscular reserves, despite all the drink. He still wanted to do something useful, so wait along the Abbe Pierre's house called Emmaus in a Paris suburb and asked for work, "Stay with us," said the smil- ing, black -bearded Abbe. "But remember, for the sake of the others, I do not want you to be seen when you have been drink- ing." 61 promise you, Father," He was one of many down - and -outs helped by this remark- able priest and Chamber De- puty—Legion of Honour, Croix de Guerre and Medal of the Resistance—who took a ruined house, converted it into a social centre, then bought empty huts from prisoners' camps on the instalment plan and erected them in the grounds to house homeless, destitute families. This at a time, just after the war, when Paris had 200,000 adults and more than 600,000 children packed into hotels, furnished rooms, insanitary slums — and there were seven million badly housed people in France. Another who found refuge at Emmaus was an ex-contict, Bastien, An orphan at fifteen, he lived with his uncle near the Belgian border, on land he would inherit when he came of age. He loved a Gravelines girl, Lucie; walked the windy dunes with her on summer evenings; wanted to marry•her, Then the old uncle married a vulgar, stingy widow with two sons, They hated Bastien because one day he would own the estate, and wanted to get him out of the way, All their gossip and mischief -making were aimed at provoking a quarrel between the young couple. One day a rafter fell, and the woman said it was' an attempt at murder. This so horrified Bastion• that he reached for his uncle's old revolver hanging in the hall, loaded it to frighten her, and accidently shot the uncle dead. Trumped-up evI- dence got him 'twenty years' hard labour at Cayenne. When he came back, an old man,Lucie was married. Be- wildered, disgusted, he ren- ounced ownership of the estate, and in a small hotel close to Emmaus took out his razozr to end his life. By sheer chance the proprietor came in in the nick of time and rang up the Abbe, whom he knew, who rushed over and -offered Bastien refuge. Slowly, with work, friend - ;ship, Bastien regained courage and the desire to live, but some- times despair overcame him; he would sob like a child and, tell- ing his story, .say: "No, no, I swear I didn't aim at him. Why , should I want to kill him, my uncle?" He could never forget the tragedy •that had made him an outcast. Baptiste, another Emmaus misfit who always slept out in the open, scorning even a tent, confessdd to a fellow -worker: "This is the first tithe in my life that I've done any building , You see, until now, I've only been taught the exact opposite —to destroy and kill. 1 never learned anything else; not since I was fifteen, I was the regi- mental Mascot. I was twenty- two when France fell, Then I went underground with the Moguls, then the F,F,I, (Free French Resistance Movement) —Alsace, Germany, Occupation. Why didn't I get demobilized? I've told you, all I knew was fighting , , Indo-China, that the last straw." , They were well paid, and de- corated, he added, but the money went fast on drink, drugs, women, He got malaria, his rating as killer went down, his outfit threw hint out, he was repatriated, welcomed with other "heroes" at Marseilles by a brass band, went back to his family in Normandy. His brothers, who had got rich on the black market during the Occupation, said: "You should have done what we did." He smashed all the crockery, went off to Paris, ran through his bonus, became a down-and-out with but one way of escape: suicide. A woman in the Red Cross gave him the Abbe's name, . . "But now I know that war is the greatest evil," he said, "Liv- ing near him perhaps,I can still learn to do something useful, to build instead of destroying . Inspiring indeed is Boris Simon's account of all this in "Abbe Pierre and the Ragpick- ers" (Harvill Press, 15s.), ably translated by Lucie Noel, To help his scheme of rehabilia- tion, the,Abbe organized rag - pickers tcomb the dustbins, dumps, sewers -and he sold the salvage. He bought land, put up more huts until he could house 180 families who had been evicted f r o m overcrowded rooms, To get money he begged in the streets, worked in a circus, took part in a double -or -quits radio quiz and won £250. Once when money ran out for cheap flats he was building he exchanged his car for . an ancient, high - built relic with spoked wheels and trailer. It created a sensa- tion whenever he parked in the courtyard of the National As- sembly, During a bitter January night of 1954, when the Council of the French Government had just re- jected a bill demanding funds for emergency housing of the poor, a three -months -old baby died of cold in an abandoned shell of a Paris bus. The Abbe at once drew attention 'to it by writing the Minister of Recon- . struction an indignant' letter, in- viting him to attend the child's funeral.,. Unprecedented though it was, the Minister came, followed the coffin on foot, and decided then and there that the Government should intervene. At its next session the Council allotted funds for building several emergency centres, Three weeks later the Abbe found men sleeping in the open, huddled in doorways, under bridges, over Underground vents, trying to keep warm on an icy night ten degrees below zero, Helped by his ragpickers, he pitched a tent on an empty site in the heart of Paris; then launched a heart-rending appeal on the radio, saying: "Last night we found a woman who had died of exposure holding evic- tion papers in her hand. Such abominations must stop." ' All France responded. A Champs -Elysees hotel offered him office space and store- rooms. The police opened up to the destitute warm subways, police stations and railway ter- minals after iiouls, Public foun- dations, private hostels, shelter- ed some 10,000 homeless tramps, young worli"inen, married cou- ples with children, Tons of • clothing and blankets, 'millions of francs poured in. Last year he received £400,000 for his campaign 'for homes for the poor. A magnificent triumph for the Samaritan who, from the start of his great work, asked no questions, made no demands for himself, said simply, "The same soup for them all, believers or not," and is now honoured in a splendid book no one should miss reading. • PLEASANT PAN—Skillet-size mirror reflects Karin Ostman,-22, 'as the Swedish beauty from the forest province of Haerjedalen basks on the beach at Falsterbe.

First a welcome change in the weather which gave us a chance to en- joy what came after . j , a session with the preserving kettle, be- ginning a braided rug, visitors for two days, threshers for two meals, and then the Canadian National Exhibition . and more of the same coming up — except' for threshing, that is over and done with. Not so the canning and pickling, much of it still on the waiting list and it won't wait too long either — and more visitors are with us again. We are glad to see them, of course, Partner and 1 went to the "Ex" for opening day and we did (enjoy it. We watched the March Past of the Boy Scouts as they gave the Salute to their Chief, Lord Rowallan, Forover an hour on they came, those boys, in,. a never-ending stream of marching feet. Boys and lead- er's of all nations; light skins and dark skins, not all in the Boy Scout uniform as we know it, but in the traditional uni- form of their own country — the Swiss with their colourful red skull caps; the Swedes equally atractive in blue and white caps; boys from the Near East with turbans of grey, white or blue, some hanging to should- er length — and of course there were all types of berets, There were boys in short pants of blue, khaki or Irish green — and the Scots in their kilts. Some marched in true military style; others apparently were still a little new in training. Some carried packs. Boys from the U.S.A. had red sweaters or jackets slung on their belts; one carried a suit -case. One older boy even managed to sport a corn -cob pipe. We wondered how he managed to get away with it! We noticed one wheel- chajr scout in the• ranks: Later, on the parade grounds, we counted no less than ten wheel chairs. A number of excellent bands gave colour to the March Past,, including the main visiting mu- sical attraction for this year's C.N.E. — the United States Navy Band, with its smart navy and white uniform. There was an embarrassing moment for the Sergeant-Major of one Canadian band, who threw his baton in the air in the approved spec- tacular style, but he failed to catch it on its way down.. The baton landed in the dust at his feet! At the official opening that afternoon representative scouts from over sixty nations marched to the bandshell and stood at 10.11.ror ha... f. • • N 4 rr ,rn v/e .'(`:stn 14,444..

As for the ExhibitIol, ascii [ can't tell 'you very much about what it has to offer this year as we were there only about six hours , . , and six hours wouldn't be too long to spend even in one building. I specially wanted to the Cat Show -- other years it has always been over by the time I visited the "Ex". I didn't expect Partner to come in with me, but strange to say he did. Maybe that was just as well otherwise I might have been there yet. I wanted to see .the Siamese cats as 1 have always had a sneaking fancy 1 would like one, To my surprise there were dozens of them. On my last visit there were only a few. Apparently there are three types of Siamese — Sealpoints, Aby- sinnians and one other which I have forgotten. The Sealpoints are the most colourful but the Abyssinians have a lovely soft coat and seem to have a more contented disposition. Among the other breeds was a white cat with one green eye and one blue — just like the kitty I had when I was very small. I don't know how true itis but I have always understood that if both eyes of a white cat are blue then the cat is deaf. We saw many other cats — black cats and grey, orange and Manx. Partner said our Black Joe and;Mitchie-White could match thea best of them any day of the .week! Of course we made a point of seeing the Shell .011 observation tower and the Arches of the Provinces. The Tower should be quite a landmark. We wish we could say as much for the Archways. Frankly we were disappointed. From the advance publicity we expected to find something quite imposing — something solid and substantial, worthy of the province which each represents. In our humble estimation the Arches are totally inadequate for that purpose. We hope the proposed new Women's Building, scheduled for 1956, will not be constructed on the same pattern. However, taking it all in all, the "Ex"' is well worth going to see and we hope to make 'a return journey, seeing a few of the features we missed on our first trip.

TIILL&RM FONT When pests invade a crop, people and things have to move in a hurry if the crop is to be saved from destruction. A delay anywhere down the line of ac- tion could result in disaster, An example of this was demonstra- ted in the prairie provinces re- cently when the barley aphid_. plague broke out. « * « Now, a single aphid is ' a harmless looking, hardly -visible, insect which feeds offthe plant by sucking its juices. There are usually aphids on most plants, but when they are present in epidemic 'proportion, a field of, grain can be stripped in about' four and one half hours.. Their reproductive powers are prodi- gious and if climatic conditions are just right, they can sweep across the land in a single season with the speed of a prairie grass fire. And conditions in Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta' this summer were ideal for aphids to propagate. * • « The insects were first noticed near Winnipeg. They were soon reported in eastern Saskatche- wan. In a little more than a week they appeared in epidemic pro- portion in 'Alberta. With the barley crop in the three provin- ces totalling about 7,500,000 acres, there was indeed cause for alarm. * • • But by a miracle of close co- operation between entomologists, farmers, industry, customs and agricultural authorities, millions of acres of barley crop were sprayed. Farmers reported aphid infestations to their local agri- cultural - representatives — and they had to do it within a mat- • ter of hours or the insects would have had the upper hand. Ag- ricultural representatives went to pesticide firms to see what chemical was available and were given the answer: the new, and powerful aphicide, mala- thion. Was it available in Canada? Some, but not enough, Manu- facturers were in the eastern United States, • * Telegrams * and long distance phone calls went back and forth between : Winnipeg, Montreal and New York City. Special planes were chartered to fly malathion concentrate [rem New Jersey to western Canada. [n about 10 days time over. 70,000 pounds nt material was flown in. In `the meantime all, available supplies at Hamilton were tushed via air to the west. Traffic representa-• Lives of industry and government customs inspectors in Winnipeg stayed up all night for several nights to rush the material through customs. The western distributors had their staffs. working around the clock. foi•- 'mulating and shipping the in- secticide to aphid plagued di- stricts. Agricultural planes hnd ground • sprayers were pressed into service and worked over- • time to apply the malathion. • • • Thousands of acres of aphid infested barley' were saved by this co-operative quick action on the part of all concerned. Heavy rains which' came later also helped and saved part of the crop' by knocking 'the. de- structive , plant lice • to the ground, • • • Since the introduction of che- micals . for controlling insects, plant diseases and undesirable plants and animals, the public is somewhat confused as to the meaning of the general terms describing these products. J, G. Hastings, pesticides man- ager of the C -I -L agricultural chemicals department, attempts to clarify the situation by say- ing that all such chemicals could be classed as pesticides and gen- erally fall into four main groups. • • . • (1) Insecticides, - control in- sects. Examples — DDT, mala- thion, aldrin, lead arsenate, ben- zene hexachloride, rotenone, di- azinon. (2) Fungicides — control fun- gus and other plant diseases. Examples — Captan, copper sul- phate, ferbam, sulphur, and a variety of seed treating chemi- ' cals. (3) Herbicides — c o n t r o 1 weeds and other undesirable plant growth. Examples — 2,4-D, 2,4,5-T, polybor-chlorate. (4) Rodenticides — control rats, mice' and other rodents that might have become pests. Examples — Antu, Cyanogas, Pival, Warfarin. Some pesticides, Mr. Hastings says can be formulated to have both fungicidal and insecticidal properties which when applied will control both plant diseases and insects which attack the plant, for example,. Deecop dusts and wettable powder for spray- ing, all purpose garden dusts and sprays, Troxide, Cucurbit 3-5 dust and Mergamma C seed treat- ment. Great care however must be taken to ensure that all chemicals are compatible and that no injurious reaction will result. * •. Because of strict government regulations, pesticides on the Canadian market can be depend- ed upon to do the job• they're meant to do if directions on ' the label are carefully followed. Birds Know 'Time ' One of the most intriguing extiniples of clock time sense is exhibited by certain herons of Eastern Australia that regularly fly out to the Great Barrier • Reef at low tide, where' , they find an abundance 'of shell fish and other marine life. Except 'at low tide the parts' of the reef where these birds feed are un• der 'water. How . they know the , exact., time to leave, so .that they ar- rive.just as the corals are break• ing through the falling water, is a complete mystery, In .many places the reef is thirty•miles or more from the mainland, so they cannot possibly see before they set out that the corals are becoming' uncovered. What makes their clock sense so much more remarkable is that the actual time of low ,tide is never the same two days running, being each day nearly, an hour later than on the pre. vlous one. 64% 01 Rented Home. Let Unfurnished and Unheated A DBS sample survey taken last Sept.elnbe: shows that 64% of an estimated 1,078,006 Can. adian households'rented rot cash were let .unfurnished and un' heated, 'slightly more than, .5.% were heated and furnished, about 30% were heated only, and less than 1% 'were furnishes' only. .When Worms Spawn Islanders Feast The scene is set by the shores of the South Sea Islands, The time is early morning, just six days after the October full moon, Down in' the little harbours and along the beaches their is bust- ling activity as every available boat is made ready to put to sea, In imagination we will follow the islanders, for this is to them a great day, A mile or two out, from the shore the boats stop, and everyone in them dives for a basket which he scoops into the sea. As he pulls it out, the water rapidly drains away, leaving a mass of wriggling worms. These, the sole object of this early - morning expedition, are tipped into the bottom of the boat, and the operation is repeated. The sea is full of these worms, and the boatmen go on scooping for hour after hour, as fast as they can, occasionally pausing to enjoy a mouthful of the curious creatures, which they regard as a luxury, Eventually the boa t s are crammed with their wriggling cargo, The baskets are then dumped on top of the masses of worms, and the boats are headed for home, the catches providing feasts for every fam- ily as long as they last, Exactly a month later, just six days after the November full moon, the whole expedition is repeat- ed, the worms then being even more abundant than in October. What does all this curious ac- tivity mean? It is the spawning season of the Palolo worm—the - Worm with' the Sense of Time. Throughout the year this lowly creature, lives in clefts and crannies; in the coral rocks sur- rounding these Pacific Islands, where it remairts hidden away and protected from its enemies. Then, as October approaches, the breeding instinct lures it from its hiding -place. Every worm spawns but once' a year, choosing either the sixth day after full ,moon in October or the corresponding day in No- vember, the majority waiting until November. How they manage always to choose the same day is a complete mystery. Yet it has always been so, and these two days have been feast days for the islanders from time . immemorial. They are, in fact, the two most important days .in. their calendar. Although the Palolo worm is an outstanding example, there are other creatures that exhibit a remarkable time sense. Bird migration, for instance, often shows 'considerable constancy in its occurrence. Many animals have a remark- able clock time sense, some of their activities occurring at pre- cisely the same time each day. There was, for example, the badger known to a Hereford- shire farmer that emerged from its earth punctually at nine forty every evening; and the woodpecker' that for months on end retired to roost under the Upsidedown to Prevent Peeking 11 0 Al 0 YI a , 3 a3 13S Y S'3 S S 3 1 N �N 0 30 1'3 3'I a•Y 3 n 3 N IN 3 s n o a3 n■ W3 0 SV 3 1 30 S Il,0 30 3 A 1 '0 Iso A 38 M a 3 .3 1 1 I S A N V1 Id as s 1 3,0 by 33I01N38 30'4/0 MVS 'd35 YHa eaves of a house at precisely three -thirty -Ave in the atte& noon, no matter whether it wet bright or dull, raining or fine. Domestic animals sometimes acquire an acute sense of time, especially where meals are In- volved. An interesting story Is told of a ten -mule plough team on a Californian farm. These animals knew almost to a min- ute that mid-day and six o'clock in the evening were times . t0 cease work and make their way back to the farm buildings for a meal. They would go os steadily pulling the plough un- til these times. Then, if work had not already been stopped, they would suddenly cease pull- ing,' began to bray and become restless. WHAT A WOMAN IS REALLY MADE OF -- According to an ancient and picturesque Hindu legend, Twashtri the wise created the world's very first woman in the following manner: He took the soft curves of the moon, the graceful lines of a creeping plant, the suppleness 01 the snake, the slenderness of the willow by the water and . the emerald lustre of the blades of grass on the meadows, To these he added the playful lightness of the feather, the ser- ene gaiety of the sunbeam, the fickleness of the winds and the pure tears of the clouds, the soft velvet of the multi -coloured blos- soms, the look of the hind, the timorousness of the hare, the vanity of the proud peacock, the cooing of the turtledove 'and the talkativeness of the parrot. Finally, he took the cold of the snow, the heat of the fire burn- ing in the heart of the mountains, the hardness of the diamond and the cruelty of the jungle tiger. He measured them judiciously and mixed all these ingredients, and from the mixture he model- led the first woman and was satisfled with his work, the leg- end • concludes. D. C.

A vital part of my love for her has dimmed, Her church activi- ties has brought her a content- ment that I shall never know, for I have no desire for that sort of life, and I never shall have. "She never neglects our home, though. She is still the perfect housekeeper, and a fine mother to our young son. (She takes him to Sunday school and then he joins her in church.) She loves me as always, appar- ently, and is really wonderful to me. We have been married 21 years. I am fond of our son, and though I dont pal around with him he seems to like me too, "I have always loved night life; my wife did, too, but no more .:. Knowing my discon- tent, she has offered to set me free if that is what I want. I am almost crazy, deciding what to do. In one w'ay I want to leave, but I can't bring myself to go. "Do you think my love for her will ever return? Where lies my happiness? MICHAEL" A VITAL DECISION * It is a sad day when a man * and his wife, having enjoyed * the same pleasures, discover * that different interests , lead * them into separatepaths. If * you leave . your wife without trying to find some comprom- * ise, I. believe you will regret * it the rest of your days. Night * life has its place, yes; but * when it is one's only source * of pleasure it grows stale to * most intelligent people. Can * you still fully enjoy it with- * out your wife along? I think * not, or you would not be fac- * ing a crisis. In her enthusiasm * for the church she has not * grown intolerant of your con- * tinned indifference to religion. * But subconsciously I think * you begrudge her any activity, * which does not include you. * She as;: though, the same wo- * man you have loved so well; * if you: need proof of her un- * selfish devotion, she offers to * set you free to pursue what- * ever life you prefer. * And what of that life? Why * limit its horizon to business * and night clubs? Buried deep * in your consciousness there * should be some desire to play ISSUE 38 — '1&55 * a more important role, To * contribute something worth * while to the world's problems, . * Before your very eyes Iles * a magnificent opportunity. * Few mortal achievements * match the satisfaction of be- * ing a good father. Guiding * a child into manhood, instill- * ing the standards of right liv- * ing, high thinking and use- * fullness to others, is a duty * (and a privilege) which most * men assume naturally. Your young son, you say, likes you — but how well does he know his father? Why not set an example that your boy can proudly follow? Discover him as an individual; set aside a part of each evening and much of your weekends to getting to know him. Take him to ball games, show an ' interest in all he says and does, listen to his little prob- lems, find out what makes him tick. Being an under- standing father is one of the richest experiences a man can know — besides, it's fun. I suspect your wife has hoped for such companionship be- tween ,you two ever since the boy was born. Only a man of conscience * could write the letter you * wrote me. It ends with the * cry, "Where does my happf- * ness lie?" It •may lie in round- * ing.. out the life of your wife * and your son into a true fam- *• ily picture, Who knows? A * year from now may' find you * with them in church, where * a new and wonderful experi- * ence can await you, too. * * * No father should miss the joy of living close to his children. If you have allowed their mother to dominate their de- velopment, take over and see how much richer is your own life.

The Romance Was Purely Imaginary Every so often public opinion picks on a rogue and invests him with an aura of romance, even in his lifetime.. It panders to his vanity and encourages him to further crime — for many crooks break the law for the sake of winning applause, even if only from their own kind. , They're men and women with a feeling of inferiority who are trying desperately to compensate. Notorious highwaymen Dick Turpin and Claude Duval belong to that army of romantic rogues, In more recent times, Jesse James and Billy the Kid were elevated to the status of heroes by those who were not their victims! Of all the bunch only Duval has any real claim to romance. Turpin was a sorry coward in reality, James a cruel ,and ruth- less killer, We're almost afraid to probe into the true history of Robin Hood, for he has always been one of our heroes! But Jesse James is the man whose life has been chosen for investigation. What made him a callous crook when ne had the ability and opportunity to be a useful, citizen? Jesse ;Woodson James was born in 1847 in Missouri. He came of no bad stock, and there was nothing, squalid about his early environment,, His father, Robert James, was ordained to the Bap- tist ministry, and to faith he ad- ded work, for during the• week he cultivated his; own farm. It seems to have been from his mother that Jesse inherited a streak of .violence, for she, was a woman of great determination, who swept aside all obstacles in the path of her ambition. She was too strong for her husband, who abandoned preaching — and his family — to seek fortune in the newly discovered gold-flelds of California. From him, perhaps, Jesse in- herited a restless disposition and a desire for easy wealth. Robert died almost as soon as he reached California: Mrs. James married again. Her sec- ond husband was a farmer twice her age with a family of his own. One can imagine that Jesse and his elder brother Frank were un- happy in this household, 'There was constant friction — so much friction that the marriage brolT up, Jesse was a handsome arro: gant youngster who resented the authority and the family of his stepfather., This was the time of the American Civil War, Frank soon joined the guerillas who were operating for the Confederate Army. Young Jesse tried to go with him, but was sent back. to help on the family farni. Tradi- tion has it that a band of North ern soldiers raided the farm and thrashed Jesse. for his loyalty to the South. But I don't think it needed anystimulus to persuade the lad to make another attempt — this time successful - to take part in the fighting. ' He was six- teen. A photograph of Jesse, taken. at that time, reveals a youth with a smooth, broad forehead, wide -set eyes , and small lips pressed into a thin . line. There is determination and arrogance in the upward tilt -of his head. From that year, 1863, emerge two portraits of Jesse James, as. different as night from day There is Jesse, the darling of the South. the,Robin Hood of the prairies ad backwoods, wr,c,. plundered the rich to heln the poor: who naid • the mort"nee a widow's. farm, theh robbed. tw wicked creditor of the mnnev, he had paid; of the honest country lad who was forced by the cruel circumstances of war to live the life of an outlaw. There. is Jesse, the dark kilter, who robbed banks, held up trains, shot down men in cold blood — because he had delib- erately chosen that way of life. His mother's farm was waiting; he could have gone back to it and won a prosperous living from the rich soil, At seventeen he could — and did - boast of having killed as - many mem His acts so far could peloaked under the plea of war. - war ended; Jesse's exploits ot, �;:fn;x.1869 Jesse was present •— '7t'ae,"'as probably the leader -- at a .raid on the bank in Gallatin, Missouri.

But there were many Southet'ner: who applauded his deeds: any one who killed a "dam Yankee" bas a hero, Jesse's victims were by'tpo. means all "dans Yankees" 'ib:was in 1873 that Jesse James planned and carried out hi:; first big train robbery — the first. of many. He had now with hint 0 , strong band of ruthless nntlaw:; A spot near Adair, Iowa, vat. chosen for the holdup, The train was derailed_ by sleepers tied across the track The Tire - man was scalded to death by steam from the damaged engine, Jesse made no attempt to rescue the trapped man: with the help of his gang he looted the mail - van and robbed the passengers, then they all rode away into the wooded country. By . now law-abiding citizens throughout the States were uni- ted in the determination to round up the gang. But Jesse had enough friends to ensure sanc- tuary, among then his mother— who still doted on him despite his deeds. She had married for the third time. Her husband was a doctor -farmer. Among those who were hot on Jesse's trail were the operatives of Pinker - ton's famous detective agency. In 1875 they were within an ace of capturing him when a tragedy occurred that did much to swing popular sympathy to- wards the outlaw for a time. Two of Pinkerton's men had trailed Jesse to, his mother's house, He refused to surrender; his pursuers knew there would be a gun battle to the death; they did not know how many of his' gang might be in the neigh- bourhood. In order to find their quarry they had taken with them a naphtha flare of the type still used on some street stalls. With this they hoped to get sum- cient light to silhouette the wanted man, ..-The flare was thrown through a window. . Jesse's step -father picked it up with fire -tongs and threw it on the fire,. The intense heat caused the flare to explode violently: one of Jesse's step- brothers was fatally injured, and his ,mother ' had 'her right arm blown off.. In the confusion Jesse escaped, Shortly afterwards, Jesse shot • • an old farmer in cold blood on the "vaguest suspicion that • the man had. betrayed him to the detectives. The inevitable end came in 1882. Jesse died violently, not at the hands of the law he had so often outraged, but from a cowardly bullet fired by a new member of his gang as he was dusting a picture in his own house, Whether the shot - was .. fired from fear or from hope 'of reward is not certain. Jesse James still rides—through legend and story, Mostly now he rides as a hero, but those who have examined his record find him only a ruthless killer.

The British Empire, the United States, among the free countries of the world in which sport flourishes as a natural, and not a forced growth, anti all others in the same happy category, should be deeply concerned, Surely the democra• cies, Canada included; must send every aualllied athlete to have a chance to match Russia. We will never, of course, beat Russian propaganda in the Pravda. There is no official team in the Olympic Games, and Russia can score as she pleases, Last time she was kind enough to give the United States a tic with computation known only to Russia, a system widely at variance from that unofficially and informally accepted in other nations, Next time, the system will be •improved to denote a Russian triumph, Unless the victory of the democracies is over- whelming. We, in Canada, need money to send athletes, but first we need athlgtes to send Time is short, Men not already in training will need to start an intelligent workout program and campaign immediately to have any chance of being worth anything in Olympic competition, If we- don't' get,a program going, we'll have few, any, athletes ready in toss.. And those . won't be prepared to compete in November which is normally out of season in our land. This is something. the Amateur Athletic Union should take up immediately, in a practical way, with practical men at the head of the organization, men not interested in petty sports politics, but men interested in development of our athletes through the medium of competition, This is the only way — competition based on efficient modern scientific training methods. We have at least one great 1500 metre prospect, Rich Ferguson. We have some fine boxers and wrestlers, excellent swimmers, both boys and girls, Just what we have in Canada we'll never know until a better degree of competition is developed. Our, hockey supremacy is no longer a matter to be taken for granted. There is ample material, but a high degree 01, selectivity must be exercised here, For other events, track- .fleld, swimming, gymnastics and the like, we believe that a series of Olympic preparatory tests and meets, with govern- ment financing in part, could develop a few athletes worthy to carry Canada's colours, and compete with the best.

It's a cross between bull- fighting and a local war. With the poor old referee a sort of. Aunt Sally in the middle of it. The job is so downright dan- gerous that I would recommend any British referee who is thinking of taking a season's engagement out there either to forget about it or to buy him- self a bullet-proof waistcoat and a cosh. You will, I know, find the stories I am going to tell about matches out- there almost in- credible. But I shan't be telling Sir Stanley Rous anything he doesn't know, He has had reports on condi- tions out there from me and from other English referees that must have made his hair sizzle. Let's start with football as it is played in Colombia, : Well, it isn't played at all. It's fought. -.It is meant to be. For the game was organized by the Government to take the public's mind off politics and revolutions, Allit has done is to transfer the bloodshed from the market -place to the football pitch. So the poor old English re- feree is right in the firing -line, One indiscreet blow of his whistle and he can start off a war. ' . Although I am now back home in my little shop at Salis- bury, I shudder every time I re- call a match - I refereed last January in Uruguay, It was the needle match of the season between clubs who are deadly rivals, Nacional and Penarol, There was an enormous crowd, and I sensed the atmos - HANDY .MANEUVER—Joe Astroth of the Kansas City Athletics slides into second base in a'futile attempt to break up double play, which came in the 'third inning of Yankee -Athletics game in New York. ` Getting the. ballaway to complete the twin killing is Phil Rizzuto, phere was getting more electric every moment. With only two minutes to go the score was even, and I began to feel 1 might get out, of the arena alive. Then, in the last two min- utes, a Nacional player com- mitted a particularly dirty foul. I could not overlook it. While the crowd held its breath I awarded Penarol—the visiting side—a free • kick just outside the penalty area. The kick was taken; the ball hit a post, rebounded, and quick as a flash it was slammed into the net by a Penarol forward: Naturally I gave a goal—and then the balloon went upl Screams rose all around me, but then I realized I wasn't— for once—the victim of the crowd's hatred. It seemed that a linesman had started to wave his flag for an infringement on his side of the ground, then, as the ball went into the net, .had dropped his flag again and agreed with my. goal decision. Over the line poured a gang of hotheads. They made straight for the linesman, and if. the po- lice hadn't formeda cordon around him he might have end- ed in hospital. To settle the dispute, I man- aged to get to him to ask whether he had flagged for an infringement. He said he hadn't —so the hullabaloo went from bad . to worse. I sat down to wait for peace to be restored, then I spotted an angry group making towards me. They were led by one of the officials of the Nacional Club, :: Once again the police pounced and the gallant official and his friends were dragged off the field by force. After seven minutes I man- aged to get play started again, and this time it was ended — with a victory. for . the visitors. More yelling . . . and then Caballo, centre half of then Nocinal team, made -straight for me, grabbed by face in his hands and hissed "Hijo de; puts" at me. That is one of the deadliest insults in the Spanish language, but,- to Save another scene, I had to take it. • My only redress was to write to the Uruguay Football ,Asso- elation urging that drastic ac- tion should be taken against the Nacional Club. Of course, nothing happened. Uruguay likes a little spice with its football, and if an English referee is knocked out — well, it's all in the game! And things are even worse, if anything, in Colombia, where 1 spent the season before last. B -A -A -A -D DOGGIE—A playful cocker spaniel really got Billy the Kid's goat. Billy is a mem- ber of a rodeo troupe and the pooch gave him a bad time until Billy cooled him off with a bit of headwork. This Is the country that hos such clubs as Bogota, Sante Fe and the •Millionarios, teams that have tempted several of our players to join them, with un- happy results. It was at a place called Cuenta in Colombia where I had a re- fereeing experience that nearly ended my days as a man with a whistle, The match was between the home team and Medellin, both top -class clubs. The score was 4-4 a few minutes before the end. Then Medellin attacked and a forward whipped the ball into goal. One of the home backs pushed out a leg and hooked the ball away—but it was quite obvious to me that it had cross- ed the line first. I gave Medellin a goal—and then all hell was let loose. The Cuenta players rushed at me, shouting with rage. They pushed, punched and then kick- ed me as I lay flat on my back. And, in the background, 1 saw the Medellin players who had got the goal. I hoped they might come to my rescue,, Not. a `bit of it, They just stood around grinning at me. The next thing' I know I was being dragged to my feet and carted towards a linesman. "Ask him!" yelled the Cuenta players. I did, "Goal," said the linesman —and then he sprinted as hard as he could for the dressing - room! As 1 was cut and bruised I refused to let the game con- tinue. So then the Cuenta boys all spat at me—and I was left to crawl : off the ground. I was too badly injured to walk, yet nobody stirred a fin- ger to help me. When I got a doctor, he ordered me to bed. Yes, they're a nice friendly lot of football players out there, But, mind you, some of them are, brilliant footballers.
