The following resolution was passed: "Believing- that the Canada Temper- ance Act is the best liquor law avail- able, we the Huron Presbytery of the United Church of Canada would urge that the 'Junior Chamber of Commerce of Goderich refrain from any action that would snake, conditions worse in Huron County," Following the adoption of this ,res- olution, a motion was made that it be circularized throughout the pres- bytery. Another quettion was raised, "What Is the Canada Tempernnee Act? and while several had copies of the Act It was .slcen ed imperative . that many clauses in' the Act should be clarified and condensed to make it more un- derstandable, that if we believe thot Counties under the Canada Temper - once Act are the better for it, then we should be able to say why they arc better by our ready knowledge of the terms of the Act, and to this end the convener of the Temperance Federa tion was instructed to try to have n small booklet completed, simplifying the Act. Rev. Harold Snell, Exeter, conducted an Impressive memorial service in memory of the late Rev. Arthur Sin- clair, who died in Windsor last week and who 'was a former minister of Blyth United Church.

She had a year in our local college; he is only a high - school sophomore, She dates him more often than we approve, She is intelligent, did well in school, and if he ever had an ambition beyond being well-dressed, we have yet to discover it. We have protested about his coming, but she will not listen—says she will do as she likes. She admits other lads have tried to date her, but says she can't be bothered. "As a younger girl, she never 'showed any interest in our home, used it more like a board- ing-house. ti She was good at sports but never had many girl friends, and those she tees now she met in college; she spends some evenings with them, but never brings them home, "The boy's family are nice people, but we never knew them well. We, however, are very much concerned, fearful that the friendship will develop into something serious. Have you any comfort for us? UNEASY PARENTS" HAVE PATIENCE * There must be a strong * physical attraction between * your daughter and this boy, * for it is most unlikely there * can be a common intellectual * bond; he must be considerably 752 SIZES 7-10 611 f ocne4 Mal Fun to wear!

Naturally, . * she bends him to her will, * and he is obviously willing, so * she is at ease with him, The * infatuation will probably wear * itself out as time passes, * Your influence over your * daughter should have started * long ago. Had she been given * the customary household du- * ties, she might have found * pleasure in performing them * well, felt herself an im- * portant unit in the family * group, and developed a sense * of responsibility which in- * eluded a respect for her par- *ents' opinions. Being an only * child, she was perhaps in- * dulged lovingly, allowed to * go her own way; probably * her year in college made her * even more independent. * Further opposition to this * friendship will only make her * more determined.

I am writing to tell you how much I, as a teen-ager, appreciate your interest in young people. "I'm a high-school junior, so I have many problems. Your counsel of other girls concern- ing dating, education, etc., is always solid, and I often have followed it myself. "Thank you for your interest in us, the teen-agcrs of today. GRATEFUL" * When a busy junior takes * time to write such a pretty * note, you may be sure I am * touched by its sincerity. * The teen years are vital in * the development of young * people; it is then that they * learn to discriminate, to get * along with others, and do * their part as a member of * their family group. Upon their * success in maturing wisely * depends their whole future, * and every thinker and au- * thority feels it is a privilege * to be of use. * The teen-agers of today, in * my opinion so much smarter * than we of another generation * were, are exercising their * rights and privileges judi- * ciously, with taste and per- * ception. More power to you I * * * When parents are perplexed at their children's whims, often patience is the only answer. Anne Hirst's understanding and wisdom await you, and she will consider your problem thought- fully. 1Vhite her at Box 1, 123 Eighteenth St., New Toronto, Ont. SOME SYSTEM At a party, one mother ad- vised her daughter that she should not just dance silently; talking to her partner was also part of the social picture. Later on in the evening the mother saw that each time the musi started the same young man tore across the floor, bowed to her daughter and swept her away to the music. When she had a chance, the mother asked the girl why the same chap chose her for every dance, "Oh, him!" the daughter ex- plained. "I'm telling him a mur- der mystery — one instalment per dance."

This week's column is written especially for members of the Women's Institute, mainly to draw your attention to the winter edition of "Home and Country", which contains a chal- lenging editorial by Miss Ethel Chapman with the caption — "Could This Be a Summer Fal- low Year?" Miss Chapman begins with. the announcement that, during the last two years, there has been a decrease in membership of 2,039, One reason for the de- cline has already been estab- lished from the reports of Branch meetings in which sec- retaries have stated that "be- cause of so many appeals for money and so much business to attend to at meetings there is little time left for either pro- gram or sociability, so women are losing interest in the Insti- tute. Old members are dropping out and it is impossible to at- tract new ones." Then Miss Chapman adds this ; "Is it pos- sible that we are getting into so much big business that we are neglecting the warm, Vital, per- sonal interests that caught the imagination of women 58 years ago?" The editorial ends with this question : "In brief, could we make this a summer fallow year?" But there are sugges- tions for combining fund-raising with entertainment. W.I. members, I am sure you will agree there is food for thought in that editorial. Is our organization becoming just an- other example of "big business"? If you are a senior member of the W.I. think back for a minute to 1947 when the. Wo- men's Institutes of Canada staged at Guelph that stirring and heart - warming pageant "Let There Be Light". Remem- ber the stage production of those first meetings when women in rural sections got together for the purpose of helping each other along the way; sharing with their neighbours such in- formation as came their way to help maintain happy homes and raise healthy families. There were sewing bees, quilting par- ties, demonstrations in nursing and homecraft and happy social gatherings where neighbour met neighbour. The membership fee was so small (and still is) that even the poorest could join, and after becoming a member there were few calls to deplete the slender purses of the times. But yet, in spite of their limited financial status the rural folk in those days did help each other out. And they had a won- derful time in so doing, their lives considerably enriched by association and the human bond of sympathy. At the jubilee celebrations just mentioned, Mrs. Hugh Summers said this ; "As we face another era, we cannot know what lies ahead of us. With the decentralization of industry coming to the fore, our rural areas shduld increase greatly in population. If this be so a far greater number may have their ISSUE S — 1956 lives made more interesting and satisfying through their contact with the W.I." Well, we are well on, the way in that new era foreseen by Mrs. •Summers. The population in rural areas has undoubtedly in- creased, but have the lives of the people been made "more' in- , teresting and satisfying through then' contact with the W.I,"? Some have, of, course, but is the proportion great' enough? Isn't it time• to take stock of the situation and figure out in which direction we are heading? Are we going forward, slipping back or just marking•time? Have our branches degenerated into mere money - making organiza- tions each branch anxious to out -do the other in raising money and in giving the largest donations to various appeals? A certain amount of money must be raised, it is true—but too far east is west. Raising money means endles work for con- veners and committees and ap- peals for assistance from less active members. Older members have had their day, having worked faithfully during the early days of their branch; younger members have small families to consider and provide for. Is . it fair to expect either •one or the other to respond to repeated calls on their gener- osity? Wouldn't any branch of the W.I. be more likely to attract new members if less emphasis were given to raising money and more to helping. newcomers and young mothers to meet together in an informal and friendly way, discussing and listening to addresses, or taking part in moderate fund-raising projects that could be at one and the same time, educational and en- tertaining. "Let There Be Light". Yes, but of what good is the light if it be clouded by a fog of too much business . and too many financial ventures. How does your J ranch rate in this matter? With the • rural population up and the ,overall membership of the W.;I;,_down,:. isn't it time we gave the'jiatter serious consideration? The W.I. is much like an orange, The sections are the branches; the outer covering the Federated W.I. And you know how it is . . , the peel of an orange may be good and sound, but if the sections are dry and pithy then the orange loses its flavour, Tough Coon farmer, was attacked recently by a ferocious animal in the darkness of his hay loft, where he had climbed to throw out some hay for his horses, The farmer scrambled down his ladder with what he thought to be a giant tom -cat swarming all over him. The cat was scratching, biting, and growling, Gale, his son, investigated the loft. He came out fast — also craving the quietness of far places. Finally, . the local game war- den was called in. He discovered the animal to be a female coon. Apparently, bereft of her own young, she had adopted two kittens after driving the old cat away. The warden managed to remove the old coon without injuring her. Thereafter, Allo- way was able to feed his horses in peace. Surprising what mother instinct will do to an animal at times. How Sun Ray's Weaken Fabrics While many textile fibres have acquired a reputation as being "tough" none has proved quite tough enough to stand up to the sun for too long a time without weakening, says the Canadian Research Institute, of Launder. ers and Cleaners. That's the reason for sunlight damage to such items as cur- tains. Exposed more or Tess con- tinuously to the sun both win- ter and summer, curtains be- come gradually weaker until they reach the stage where they are ready to literally fall apart after a laundering. To demonstrate the effect of the sun's says, twelve test cur- tains were exposed to sunlight over a nine month period. At the end of that time, research- ers found that every curtain was weaker and had also lost colour. Since curtains are usually protected at the top by shades,. the bottom portion will be affect- ed more quickly than the top.. Many housewives find that they get longer life for their curtains by using an equal size hem at top and bottom. Ther they can simply turn the cur- tains upside down after each' laundering. Opinion is divided on whether curtains (Tang Netter when starch, has been added. Probably some do and some don't. if starch is preferred, this should be speci- fically requested when curtains are sent to be laundered. Genius is a perception of the.

Tat, 8M,1.1481 * •, What Is A Stroke? We read or hear about strokes almost every clay and the word terrifies us. A friend or neigh- bor may be stricken, a public figure suffers one, Franklin D. Roosevelt died of a stroke; so did, supposedly, Russia's Stalin, New York's famous Jimmy Walker and many others. To most persons the word means sudden, bludgeoning death—a man or woman in the prime of life complains, of a blinding headache, slumps to the floor in a coma and never awakens. Or, at best, it signi- fies a lifetime of hopeless para- lysis. This is by no means the cor- rect picture. It is true that stroke — known medically as apoplexy or cerebral accident -- is the third of the Big Three killers, following heart disease and cancer. It takes nearly 170,- 000 American lives each year, which is four times as many as both diabetes and tuberculosis combined. But it is also true that de- spite popular misconception, the majority of victims not only survive attacks but are actually able to live normal, useful lives thereafter, writes Lester David in CORONET. Dr. Irving S. Wright, a former president of the American Heart Association and one of the na- tion's foremost authorities on heart and blood -vessel diseases, asserts: "In a very large pro- portion of cases, individuals who have suffered strokes make complete recoveries and are able to return to comfortable and productive life," In addition, medical science is sow discovering that the out- look for paralyzed persons is far from hopeless. In many *enters throughout the U.S., doctors have been performing sear -miracles of rehabilitation. At the New York University —Bellevue Medical Center in New York, Drs, Howard A. Rusk and Joseph G. Benton con- ducted a rigorous course of training with about 1,000 par- tially -paralyzed persons, and recently reported that fully 92 per cent were discharged from within six to eight weeks. All f these people were able to 1Bseet the needs of daily living and at least 40% of them were J capable of returning to some form of work. Here are eight of the most frequently asked questions about strokes, and the answers: 1, What, actually, is a stroke? There are two main types, and each is literally an accident occurring within the brain. One form is cerebral hemor- rhage, in which an artery rup- tures, suddenly spills blood into the brain, and deprives vital areas of their normal blood sup- ply. The second form is cerebral thrombosis, or the blocking of an artery by a clot which also cuts off' the necessary blood supply to brain cells. Brain tissues cannot live more than a few minutes without the oxygen supplied by blood, Un- like skin, they have no power to grow back. Thus the impor- tant centers, those master switchboards which control all senses and bodily functions, break down from the abrupt stoppage. When large quantities of blood are forced into the sub- stance of the brain, as in. the case of a massive hemorrhage, the delicate cells and fibres are destroyed and death can come within days or even hours. In other cases, paralysis can oc- cur in varying degrees of severi- ty to facial, arm and leg muscles. 2. Why does stroke cause paralysis? There is a definite parallel be- tween a stroke victim and a city devastated by flood. When rampaging waters overrun an area, they sever communications lines - bridges collapse, tele- graph and telephone wires are swept away, roads become im- passable. So, too, with the human body when an artery breaks down or dammed - up blood pours through the walls of a vessel. Communication lines — in thls case the nerve pathways — leading from the brain are flooded and perhaps destroyed completely by blood which has suddenly ' been diverted from its normal course. The severity and location of the paralysis depend on how much of the brain has been in- jured, and where. If the left HE'S GOT HIS NUMBER — When J. L. Goldenstein got his first set of license plates in 1919, he liked the number so much that he requested and got it every year since. He's shown above, le his garage beside his collection of plates — complete from 1919 through 1956. This year's plate with the favorite num- ber Is being carried on his son's car, however, as Goldenstein has decided to pass on the family "heirloom." UNPOPULAR VERDICT — Cuba's Kid Gavilan (left), former wel- terweight champ, is despondent as he moves through a crowd of supporters after losing a 10 -round decision to Great Britain's Peter Waterman in London. In the stormiest scene in modern British boxing history, many of the 10,000 fans jumped on chairs and booed the decision, which newsmen at ringside had scored.for Gavilan. side of the brain is damaged, the muscles on the right side of the body will be affected, and vice versa. This is because the nerve pathways cross over in their passage through the brain. 3. What are the immediate warning signs of a stroke? Many victims experience headache, dizziness, ringing in the ears, numbness of the limbs and nausea for several days or just a few minutes before the attack, 4. How can you recognize a stroke victim? If it is a cerebral hemorrhage, the individual will lose con- sciousness suddenly, in most cases complaining of a violent headache 'before collapsing, The face may become waxy -white, but more generally it is flushed. Breathing Is labored— the lips are blown out and the cheeks flap with each expiration of air. In most cases there is definite evidence of paralysis. For ex- ample, the pupils of one eye may be more contracted than. the other and the face may be lopsided. In addition, the limbs may be more rigid or loose on one side. An attack of cerebral throm- bosis is less dramatic. The in- dividual often wakes to find an arm, leg or even an entire side useless, or there may be an un- explained difficulty in speaking. It is possible that the patient will gradually lapse into a co- ma. 5. What first aid measures should you take for a stroke ,victim? Summon a doctor, of course; and gently — very gently — turn the patient on his back and raise his head and 'shoulders on pillows or a folfil'ed coat. Loosen the clothing about his neck and chest. Don't try to rouse the patient. Don't carry him upstairs and put him to bed. Any but the slightest movements may • in- crease the escape of blood com- ing from the ruptured vessel. 6. Are strokes always major, dramatic attacks? No. There are 'little strokes," A great soul prefers moderation S E?VC.A S B,C.-A.D.65 ) the llouse of Seagram Men who Mid of tomorrow practice moderation today no more than oozing in the brain, when victims are una- ware anything has happened. Sometimes a little stroke causes slight but contusing changes in character: A person with a fine memory finds himself forgetting things; an orderly individual loses interest in neatness; a friendly one turns quarrelsome. Little strokes, points out Dr. Wright, do not necessarily pro- duce serious consequences, but they should be regarded as danger signals calling for at- tention by a doctor. He may be able to suggest treatment which will reduce the possibility of a major cerebral accident later on. 7. What causes strokes? The chief culprits are high blood pressure, hardening of"the arteries, or both. If the water pipes of your house are old and corroded, even the normal pressure of the water might cause them to burst. If the pipes are old and the water comes charging through at a partigu- ]arly high pressure, the pipes will probably burst sooner. 8.,Can anything be done to prevent a stroke? Yes, and the rules apply es- pecially to persons past middle. age. Although strokes are not uncommon before 45, the large majority of victims are in the older age groups. The primary injunction is to keep the blood pressure from soaring. If it is too high: avoid excite- ment, stay home nights instead of going to parties, keep weight down, get eight hours or more sleep nightly and take time for a rest period every day. If it is normal but you are middle-aged or older, are over- weight or have a family history of high blood pressure: have a regular medical checkup. A great deal can be done to avoid complications before they have a chance to develop. Strokes come without warn- ing, but the conditions that bring them about have been telegraphed to you long before. Don't miss 'the message. Life on World's Loneliest Island They don't marry in haste on the loneliest island in the world — .engagements usually last at least five years. When a young man begins courting on bleak, storm -swept Tristan da Cunha, 1,500 miles from Cape Town, he goes each evening to his girl's house and just sits by the fire. No word of love is spoken be- tween them, but the family all know why he's there. When he has shown clearly that he really loves the girl, he gives her his weekly washing to do. If she undertakes to do it, it's a sign that she has accepted him. They then begin to walk about the island together on Sunday after- noons and always dance the first and last dances together at so- cial gatherings. Sailing to this island with his wife and three children soon will be the Rev. P. H. Bell, who has been appointed chaplain there. Women on this tiny volcanic island wear long, heavy skirts and chin -high collars, The 250 people, mostly of British descent, pay no taxes and have waged a dour struggle for existence 'since the island became a British pos- session in 1816.

One in every four such accident in rural Ontario occurred at a rural intersection, or farm lane connec- tion, with a major highway. In many cases farmers were in no way involved; in more cases farm drivers probably were innocent victims of careless highway motorists, But farmers and their families died in Nome of these smash-ups. Farm vehicles were destroyed. And directly or indirectly Ontario's farm population pays a share of the tremendous cost that motor accidents annually inflict in this province. Safety is everybody's business, everybody's responsibility. The farmer has a major stake in the safety of rural roads whether they are familiar township routes, regularly travelled county roads, or our provincial super highways. Death and injury lurk at every intersection. The Ontario Federation of Agriculture is marking Rural Safe Driving Week on February 20 to 25th. May I urge every farmer and farm family in this province to give their atten- tion and active support to the occasion. During this week — and every week—drive so an accident won't be yours, ]fon.

Yes, you will have a steady comfortable heat at about half the cost of any other type of automatic fuel. Perhaps you will think that there is a lot of work entailed with burning Rice hard coal in a stoker. There certainly is not.

She's strolling down the aisle of a plane, and the men, all news correspondents, don'` mind ne• glecting their food one bit to ogle at the sight. i,iey were Invited aboard for a special press showing of the girdle. SHE PLODS FOR PEACE — A gray-haired woman, who won't tell her name, is traveling over the U.S., "walking for peace." She will, however, tell you why she is walking 10,000 miles over the U.S., Canada and Mexico. She's walking for world peace, and has been on the road for three years. The hiker says she is known only as "Peace Pilgrim," the name lettered on ,the front of a blue vest she wears. On the back is "Walking 10,000 Miles for World Disarmament." So far the preacher of peace has traveled 7700 miles. She says she averages about 25 miles a day. This is the second half of her tour, On her first 5000 miles she walked from los Angeles to New York. Now she's making it a point to walk at least 100 miles In each state. After she walks the 100 miles she sometimes accepts rides. Her vow is: "I shall remain a wanderer until mankind ,has learned the way of peace — walking until I am given shelter, fasting until I am given food." Was it a Curse, Or Coincidence? For nearly seventy years the priestess with the staring eyes has glared balefully from her glass case in the second Egyptian Room of the British Museum. Yet still visitors constantly pes- ter attendants with the ques- ion: "Which is the haunted mummy?" Even in 1956 the priestess of Amen-Ra—dead these 3,000 years — has flowers placed at her feet by her devotees. And still there are superstitious wor- shippers who regularly visit the priestess and fall on their knees in prayer when they think no one is looking. Most people examine her — exhibit 22,542 — with cautious respect. For through the years its amazing curse story lingers. Lady Harlech, mother of a Cabinet minister, cheekily put out her tongue at the priestess. As she left the museum she fell down the steps, badly spraining her ankle, The incident, though trivial, is typical. A Blackpool carpenter, holidaying in London was dared by his sweetheart to challenge the figure. Within an hour they were both injured in II road crash. Museum officials deplore the lurid legends that have gather- ed around item 22,542. Yet the bizarre facts are stranger than fiction. 1►► reality, there is no haunt- ed mummy, no mortal remains of an ancient priestess. The rich- ly painted, dark -eyed beauty that stares with such malignity across the museum gallery is only the inner lid of a mummy case. But perhaps the story began on an occasion in the eighties when a well-known London dandy named Douglas Murray called on Count Louis Harron, who was then already becoming familiar to millions as "Cheiro," the society palmist, Cheiro gazed in dread at the hand that was extended to him.• He could foresee a gunshot shattering it to pieces! "Your hand seems to be call- ing to me to try and save it," he. told the visitor. "There is a lottery that brings you some- thing you do not want." And the famous seer paused, for his insight warned him that the lottery would lead to his client's death, What was this fatal prize? As Cheiro studied Murray's hand, the vision of a carved Egyptian sarcophagus swam before him. "Have nothing to do with it," the palmist begged. "It will bring misfortune!" Events came to pass precisely as he foretold. On the whim of two friends, Murray went to Egypt. The brisk trade in relics was in those days .the life of tourism, and one day Murray was offered the lid of a mummy case for his inspection. He found himself gazing with aversion at the painted face of the priestess of Amen•Ita. But despite his qualms his friends urged that it should be bought and suggested drawing lots for In three successive draws Murray drew the winning num- ber, Three days later, on a hunt- ing expedition, the gun he was carrying exploded in his right hand. His arm had to be amputated. On the voyage back to England « both his companions died of septic pneumonia — the illness that killed Lord Carnarvon of Tutankhamen fame—and v •ere buried at sea. With his worries Murray had almost forgotten that he had shipped the case -lid home. But as he gazed at the dry wooden image again he recalled Cheiro's dread warning. Within a week he suffered serious business losses and now was sure that the trail of disaster emanated from the priestess. • A woman literary friend laughed at his fears and offered to take the lid home with her, And from that moment mishap after mishap dogged her, On the day that the mummy case entered her house, het mother fell and broke her thigh. Her engagement was broken off. Her three prize dogs went mad and had to be destroyed. She did not believe that an old piece of painted wood could cause these troubles. It was when Madame Blavatsky, the famous mystic, called on her that the apparent truth had to be faced. "My dear," said Madame Blavatsky, "your house is un- der an evil influence. There is something terrible here . , . " So the story goes, Some peo- ple, on hearing such a tale, would be anxious to possess the object, either to prove or dis- prove its sinister reputation, This was the motive of he next purchaser who immediately made the lid the showpiece of her drawing room. The next day everything breakable in the room — vases, ashtrays — was found shattered. Hastily the Egyptian relic was moved to a room upstairs — with the same result For a few days the house seem- ed to be spasmodically haunted by a poltergeist of the most des- tructive type. Pictures on the walls were smashed, lights were seen, mysterious knocking heard. And an investigator who photographed the mummy case - lid had a shock. The photograph was so evil and menacing that he immediately destroyed both the plate and the print. Unfortunately he gained more publicity from this than he would have done it he had al- lowed the picture to speak for itself, Douglas Murray's : udden death, too, created a greater Im- pression than it might have done but for the stories that had al - W ready begun to spread. Was he, too, a' victim otthe deadly curse? The next owner of the case sold it immediately she fell 111, but even before acquiring the case -lid she seems to have been a life-long invalid, , So it passed into the hands of the Egyptologist, Mr. A, F. Wheeler, who presented the lid to the British Museurt'r, explain- ing that it - had come from Thebes, The curious episode might have ended there. But as an attendant was carrying the lid to its destined resting place be- hind glass, he dropped it, crush- ing his foot, After this, nearly every illness or death on the Museum staff was attributed to the priestess of Amen -Ra. W. T. Stead the journalist, elevated the legend to new heights. The face on the case, he declared, was that of a liv- ing soul in torment, and he sought the authorities' permis- sion to hold a seance in the Egyptian rooms to set her soul at rest. Permission , was refused, and the credulous might add that W. T. Stead was afterwards drown- ed in the Titanic. With a few minor exceptions the authentic story of "the mummy's curse"— as it is always miscalled — comes to an end with this trage- dy. Yet people still sometimes send money from overseas ask- ing that flowers shall be placed at the foot of the exhibit, cash that is merely impounded by the museum treasurer, A Lesson For All If there are any big league ball players who doubt the im- portance of condition it is re- commended that they consider the results 01 the recent Winter Olympic Games. Soviet Union athletes walked away with the unofficial team championship because, general- ly speaking, they had one obvi- ous edge on the rest of the world. They were in superb physical condition. That is not to say that there were other skaters, skiers and ski jumpers in the Cortina events who were not at the peak of condition, or that the Soviets did not occasionally have an edge in technique. \Raw condition alone could not have done it. But many times the difference between two standout athletes in any sort of contest testing skill and stamina is condition, The fraction of a second that separates first and second places can be that little extra effort one athlete put into his training. The Soviet team that went to Cortina was probably the finest trained team in the history of the Olympics—perhaps the most hardened group of young men and women in the history of athletics. If that little extra was ever needed in a race, they knew they would have it. It hurts me to say this, be- cause some of my best friends are ball players. But there can be no doubt that the big leaguer, also generally speaking, is the poorest conditioned athlete in professional sports writes Al Rumill. The ball player .is not a lazy fellow. If he is in the beginning, the rugged schedules of the American and National Leagues change him. But there is a tend- ency—partly because of the in- creasingly rugged schedules — for a boy . to "save himself." He figures that if he takes it easy today, he will have more left for tomorrow—or will add an extra season to his already recogni2ed short major league career. Experience proves, however, that such an approach is wrong. The players with the longest careers were well conditioned players. Old timers like Ty Cobb and Eddie Collins, who lasted for more than 20 years in base- , ball's fastest 'company, spent most of the winter tramping'; through the woods. or into the open country to keep their lege in shape, The modern generation has, as a notable example, the veteran Enos Slaughter, now running out his career with the Kansas CIty' AthletIes. Slaughter runs everywhere, Ile never stops hustling. During the off-season he takes long hikes, Consequent- ly, his legs are always ready and he has been able to continue picking up big league pay checks after poorer conditioned players have finished their active careers. Billy Southworth used to say: "There can be reason for a ball player lacking experience or specialized skills, such as bat- ting or fielding, But there never can be an excuse for a poorly conditioned player, In my ex- perience in the majors I have seen many smartly conditioned players win jobs over players who seemed to have an edge in technical skills. Get in shape and stay there is the advice I give my players." It was disappointing, and a bit surprising, to hear Ted Wil- liams say the other day that he has been just taking it easy since the end of the 1955 sea- son, A man of his age, experience and magnitude in the baseball sun should know how im- portant condition is, and how much easier it is to return to big league physical caliber when you have never let your- self stray too far from it. The Russians have taught the world a tremendously signifi- cant , lesson, that should ba heeded by every athlete, ama- teur or professional. FAIR QUESTION , "I want to paint you," an artist told a poor Irish dairy- maid, "How much would you charge?" The girl blushed, but made no reply. "It's easy money," said the artist, encouragingly, "No question about that," said the girl. "I was just wond- ering how I'd get the paint off afterwards."

"Where does our money go?" T h e s e questioners become even more puzzled when they discover, for one thing, that out of 18 cents they may pay for a loaf of bread, the farmer gets .something less than three cents. What happens to the other 15 cents? And what happens to what the farmer does NOT get from the other food dollars spent in grocery stores? To keep all these simmering questions from boiling over un- necessarily, U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Ezra Taft Benson, after conferring with President Eisenhower, recently ordered the United States Department of Agriculture to make a special study of what happens to the retail food dollar, writes Helen Henley in The Christian Shlence Monitor. « « * Storm signals already were flying on this i s s u e of food costs. Some partisan comments have blamed high food prices on labor, whose wages have steadily increased. Others blame industry, pointing to mounting profits. And even the farmer comes in for a share of blame, too, for many citizens believe that government price supports paid to the farmer come out of what they pay the grocer. « « « Citizens do pay that bill for price supports, too -but not as consumers, and not with the GRAND OPENINGS - A pile- ated woodpecker, a disappear- ing species, aims its needle- sharp bill at a riddled pine tree.

They foot the bill for price supports out of another pocket, In the form of taxes, a payment entirely separate from their retail food' costs. « « . • But if the farmer does not get the major portion of the consumer's retail food dollar, who does? « « * The USDA reports shows that many hands reach out to claim as theirs a share of every one of these dollars -and in no syl- lable does the report imply that any of t h o se who share the "take" are not fully entitled to what they get. What it discloses is that most Americans are liv- ing better and eating better - and paying the necessary costs - for their improved situation. « ,« « Here's the story, as presented in the USDA report "Marketing Costs for Food"; Since 1945, the farmer's share of the consumer's retail food dollar has declined steadily, dropping from a record high of 63 cents in 1945 to 41 cents in 1955. His share now is only slightly above the 1935-39 aver- age, while the rest of the American economy zooms along in unprecedented prosperity. This decline is attributed to an increase in the spread be- tween farm prices and retail prices of food -what is called the marketing margin, which in- cludes all charges for processing and distributing farm products after they are sold by farmers. « « 4, These charges cover wage rates, reported to have increased almost 100 per cent above 1945, other costs such as freight rates, packaging material, con- tainers, fuel, equipment, rents, etc., which are up about two- thirds - and state and local property taxes which have "in- creased substantially" sin c e 1945. « • * Some citizens have looked askance at labor, costs, which have almost doubled and which sometimes "amount to more than half the gross margin (dif- ference between raw material cost and selling price.)"But the report. points out also that "actual labor costs have not in- creased as fast as wage rates because output per man-hour has increased. Compared with the 1947 - 49 average, hourly earnings of 'food - marketing workers increased 43 -per cent and labor costs per unit of prod- uct 26 per cent . , . " « « « Total profits before taxes of some large food processors, wholesale distributors, and retail food chains have "grown sub- stantially since 1945," the USDA finds, but these profits "can be explained primarily by the in- creased volume of food sales handled by these. firms," After all, there are more people to be fed now, American population having increased 25 per cent in the past 15 years, and incomes are larger. « « + And, the study discovered, "people on farms are buying more processed foods and buy- ing a larger portion of their total food" rather than living in self-sufficiency on the prod- ucts of their own acres as many have done in the past. ti, I'ace.rien1 ut.lte , 9.

What the Auto has Meant to Canada "There was only one small cloud on -the horizon, a cloud caused by the appearance on Ontario's dusty roads of a strange contraption called the automobile." With these words, a grand old man of Canada's automobile industry, R. S. Mc- Laughlin of Oshawa, now in his 85th year, recalled recently the birth of the horseless carriage at the turn of the century. By 1905 when McLaughlin was gearing up the family car- riage company to produce the new "contraption" there were only 565 cars in Canada and motoring was considered an ad- venturous, sporty thing. In the U.S., the Ford and Cadillac com- panies were not five years old and carriage -maker William Du- rant had 750 Buicks scheduled for production that year. R. E. Olds' one - cylinder Oldsmobile was commanding attention on the dirt. and gravel highways. In England, Charles S. Rolls and Sir Henry Royce were about to bring out their first Rolls-Royce, the "Silver Ghost." Today the small cloud on the horse -and -buggy horizon has be- come an immense industry and the strange contraption on the dusty roads has shaped itself into more than two and a half million cars driven by Canadi- ans on asphalt roads and high- ways. With them are one mil- lion trucks, buses, motorcycles and tractors. Only 50 years af- ter the car makers swung into production, one Canadian in six has an a u t o, and Canadians spend more each year - two and one-half billion dollars - to buy and operate their cars thali the country spends on na- tional defence. The immediate effect of the Motor Age in Canada was to link communities with each other, bringing the country to city dweller's and the city to the country; to link provinces and regions by east -west travel and to ma k e all the United States a near -neighbor. Back in 1,J00 not one out of 100 urban people had a horse and buggy and families travelled by rail only on rare occasions. In 1956 they use an automobile to get to work, shop, visit, go to a show, take a holiday or just to get out of the house and "motor" about. A continent has been laid at the feet - or wheels- of Canad ians. In the post-war world, the automobile has accelerated this revolution in the Canadian way of life as half a million people found themselves mobile en- ough to glove out to the sub- urbs from congested city areas. William A. Wecker, president of General Motors, calls it an "ex- plosion" in our cities. Out of the explosion's smoke has come a greener, more expansive life in suburbia with its big shopping centres, playgrounds, gardens and varied community activi- ties. In the process, the ma- chine that made it possible has emerged from the luxury class to become a necessity. At the same time the auto• motive industry has loomed larger and larger in our econ- omy. Sales of vehicles account for one-fifth of all retail busi- ness done in Canada. Front one wagon -works turning out a car every three days 50 years ago, there are now 20 manufacturing plants turning out some 1,200 vehicles a day - close to half a million a year. The motor ve- hicle industry is Canada's second largest, topped only by pulp and paper. Like a new world in whirling motion, the auto industry has had a magnetic effect on our economy, attracting a ring of satellites around. it: finance companies which in 1953 loaned $725,545,000 to help Canadians buy 640,512 new and used ve- hicles; and some 180 Canadian factories and shops, located in eight mainland provinces, which manufacture the 12,000 to 20,- . 000 parts that go into autos and trucks. They absorb $308 million of the $588 million spent in 1953 by auto manufacturers for ma- terials. Other primary and secondary industries in Canada find the auto makers their biggest cus- tomers. Producers of petroleum, steel, glass, nickel, lead, rubber and textiles benefit directly. Textile plants sell as much cot- ton cloth• for car upholstery as they do for men's shirts. About half the rubber industry's out- put goes into automobile tires and tubes. In 1954 Canadians consumed nearly two and one- half billion gallons of gasoline -enough to send every Canadi- an man, woman and child on an individual 3,000 -mile auto trip. As an employer, the automo- bile industry grew from small machine shops with a few hand workers to plants with thou- sands working on mile -long as- sembly lines and in offices. It pays more than $130 million a year to the 33,000 Canadians in auto manufacturing plants. An- other 16,000 working in parts manufacturing plants in 400 communities *earn some $81 million a year. It is difficult to say precisely how many Canadians have found full and part-time jobs as a re- sult of the invention of the auto, but all estimate would be half a million - one in 12 of Can- ada's labor force, - depend directly on the auto industry for their livelihood. In addition to auto plan t workers there are the wholesalers and retail- er's of cat's and trucks, of tires, tubes and other equipment, of gasoline, oil and grease. There are those that paint and repair autos; bus drivers, truck driv- ers, taxi drivers and chauffeurs; motel and drive-in theatre em- ployees, and those who park, store, wash and 'polish cars. On the fringe are those who• build highways, bridges and streets, the men who keep them in con- dition and those who sell the material to build and repair highways. There are the high- way officials and their staffs at the civic, provincial and nation- al levels - some 5,500 in On- tario alone. Putting trucks on the road and keeping them there is a major industry within the auto- motive industry. Early in 1954 there were 825,476 commercial • trucks in Canada worth a bil- lion and a half dollars. Some 150,000 Canadians listed them- selves as truck drivers, B i g highway trucks, rolling across the provinces like freight cars, were transporting one-fifth of the tonnage carried by rail- ways.. Fleets of smaller vehicles carried everything from cattle to corn flakes. More than half the products of Canadian farms go to market -in trucks. -They deliver 90 per- i People Collect Almost Anything 1 her locally "the old o lives fbr her shoes," roud of the nickname. r seventy and has a unigtl, ebflection of 700 pairs of shoes, all of historical inter- est, which are displayed in her Ohio home, Shoe . - collecting has been her hobby for years. Every part of the world is re- presented by her collection. Says this ardent collector to privileged callers who view the shoes; "A collecting hobby like mine keeps you young." The queer crazes of collectors are constantly hitting the head- lines. Is there anything in the world that isn't collected by some enthusiast? Doctors agree with the Ohio woman that this magpie mania is good for us, but they might think a collection painstakingly made by a Kansas City man rather morbid. He goes about the United States and Europe col- lecting handcuffs, about 150 pairs of which now line the walls of his dining room. Some of them, he'll tell you, have been worn by men con- demned for murder. One was worn by a murderer who, while fettered to it, killed a warder, A Chatham man collected 700 bicycle lamps, some dating back to the hobby -horse, A Lowes- toft man has m or e than 100 varieties of beer mugs and 300 beer mats. An Australian mil- lionaire, Sir Edward Hallstrom, has a collection of 250 hats, but some years ago an American comedian, Ed Wynn, claimed to have a collection of 800 hats of different styles. An ex -chef possesses 50,000 chickens' wish -bones and says his dearest wish is to double that number. But they're all in- tact - he's never broken one to make a wishl In 1927 more than 100,000 postal curios col- lected by Mr. A. Moreton, a re- tired post office official, were acquired by the Union of Post Office Workers to prevent them leaving Great Britain. A Surrey man made it his hobby to collect twigs which had grown into shapes resembl- ing prehistoric monsters, like dinosaurs. He varnished the twigs, adding beads to repre- sent eyes and painting in scar- let mouths, and then housed them in an inn of which he was the landlord. Fancy collecting tears shed by famous people I Mr. Alfred Gray, a former London piano tuner, spent his retirement inducing celebrities to weep into tiny phials.

BEING TRUE TO OUR TRUST Luke 19 : 12.26 MY SCIIOOL LESSON Memory Selection ; He that Is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much; and he that is unjust in the least Is unjust also in much. - Luke 16 :11 The parable of the pounds, like that of the talents, presents that practical teaching that God expects us to make good use of whatever he has entrusted is us. If we do so there will be an ample reward, for faithful serv- ice will result in greater re- sponsibilities being conferred. Also both parable teach that the unfaithful servant will face a stern day of reckoning in which he will suffer loss. The parables differ in that in our lesson the servants start with equal op- portunities (each having one pound) and end with unequal rewards -one is given authority over ten cities and another over five. But in the parable of the talents the servants start with unequal opportunities (having five talents, two, and one), and the faithful ones, so far as the recorded words indicate, are given equal rewards. The par- able of the pounds suggests a gradation of future rewards, in accordance with the degree of one's zeal and devotion to Christ. As a counterpart of this, a gradation of penalty is clearly taught (Luke 12:47-48). The recognition of the stew- ardship of life presents daily problems. How should I use the money God gives me. Of course, I will give the tenth to the Lord's work. In addition 1 will present offerings. But what about the remainder. Where shall I draw the line between desirable living and extrava- gance. We are certain that God does not want us to live as the poorest of the poor in heathen lands. That is not the answer. But neither can we be reckless with what God has given us. John Wesley wrote many books the sale of which brought him a profit of $150,000. But he never spent more than $150 annually on„ himself. When he died he left an estate valued at not more than $50. A missionary to the Navajo Indians overheard a friend telling of • a wedding. The bride had a friend who was a florist and she got all the flower. for $50. "Fifty dollars, just for flowers? And you call that a Christian wedding?" She was thinking of the needs of herr Navajos for food and medicine -needs which a few cents would help to alleviate. Let us live simply and give all we can.
