The News -Record failed to give cred- it where credit was due by mention - Ing the fact that Mr. James Lawrie of Blyth, and his assistant Mr, Walter Buttell were responsible for the im- proved appearance of the Clinton Post Office, Jimmie end Walter did the inside work last winter, and have now completed the outside work which the contract required, and with those two lads on the job, the end result has to be good. The town of Clinton has turned its sights our way on more than one ()me- lon this year, for new school prin- cipal and nssistant teacher, and now we learn tint Miss Lois Grasby has been engaged as organist in the Ontario Street United Church et Clinton.

Huron Farmers Will Visit Bruce County A bus trip to Bruce County has been planned for a group of Huron County farmers for Thursday, July 20th, The following stopovers have been arranged at Bruce County farms—Pals- ley, farm of Elmer Perschbaker, Tees - water; farm' of Jack McKague, and plc. nlc lunch at Teeswater Park, Holyrood, farm of Mac Thompson, Paisley, forma of Bruce Wannsley and Andrew A. McTavish, . The tour will leave Clinton at 9 a.nn , pick up at Blyth and Winghann enrouta and arrive •nt Paisley at 10,30 n,m At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the bun will head for home. Cost of the tour will be $2,59 per passenger, Application for trans. portation should be made to the Ag. ricultural Office, Clinton, There is space on the bus for 44 passengers, Huron County 4 -II Club • members and Agricultural Club Leaders may a- vail thetnselves of a train tour to the Mogan . Pcninsuln on Tuesday, July 17th, The train will leave Gode• richat it n•tn. and leave Niagara Fulls for the return journey at 0:45, p.m., arriving back in Goderich at 11:10, the Royal Purple at the convention. representing Vancouver Island. Prior to coming here she visited her sister, Miss Eileen Robinson, at To-. routo, her sister, Mrs, G. R. Augus- tine and family, at Burlington, Mrs. Jessie Moody and Miss Pauline Robin- son, of Waterloo, and her brother, Mr, R. H. L. Robinson and family of Port Colborne. Mrs; Tassie was enjoying renewing Blyth acquaintances on Mon- day.. She and her daughters will leave for home on August 1st, and on'erri- val will have the pleasure of enter- taining her brother, E. S, Robinson, and Mrs, Robinson, of Goderich, and Miss Edith Lockhart of Sarnia, who are motoring through the west at. the present time and expect to arrive at Port Alberni about August 1st, - Il is eight years since Mrs,, Tassie last visited Blyth, which is her home- town, and she remarked on the .fine appearance of the town, and also on the changes along main street. She also brought along, all the way from Port Alberni, some leaves front a B,C, Maple which certainly puts, to shame anything we may have here .in the way of foliage, We have the leaves on display In our window, and they are bigger than the biggest bass- wood leaves we ever saw. Lois re• marked that they do everything in• a big' way in -the West — even to the leaves on the. trees -{and including the stories. Fisherman can drool on this thought. One chnp caught a 624, salmon last year, winning the prize In a season -long fishing derby. We cannot attest to the fishing story —but we do have the leaves to prove about the tree foliage, Clinton Stores Open Friday and, Saturday Nights Clinton merchants have been having difficulty reaching a decision on op- en nights this year, During the winter months they were closing at 0 pm, Saturday night, but with the longer days a suggestion was put forth that Friday night be declared open, in place of Saturday night, a rule which some merchants ndopted, but which others failed to .recognize: Since that time some stores have opened one night, and some the others, and the more ambitious remained open both nights—but the situation was con- fusing to the public. A recent meeting pretty well agreed that all stores remain open both nights' for the balance of the. summer season. The opinion of Clinton merchants Is divided as to which is the best shop- ping night from point of financinl,gain, Annual Union Cemetery Decoration Service On Sunday, July 22nd The annual Decoration Service for the Blyth Union Cemetery will be held at the cemetery on Sunday, July 22nd, cotnmencing at 3 p.m, The service w111 be in charge of the Rev, A.

Prices of our requirements, such as paper, etc., have advanced tre- mendously, In turn we have been forced to advance our prices, but not in comparison, so as. to maintain our margin of profit — consequently we need and seek ever increasing support. Our latest problem however, and one which faces us every week, is the crowding of at least two normal days work, into one, every Tuesday, It has gotten to the point where we find ourselves struggling to coinpleto at least 75 percent of the weekly edi- tion between the time we arise Tues- day until we go to bed sometime Wed- nesday` morning, or whenever we get the issue to a certain stage so that certain portions of the mailing list may, be sent on Wednesday, • Besides setting late local copy, all our correspondence news comes in on Tuesdays, plus the advertising changes. We realize that correspondents can- not possibly do justice to their week- end news and get it here any sooner. There Is one asi.ect of the procedure that might clear up some of our dif- ficulty, That Is early copy from 0111 local advertisers, particularly nn weeks when some of them Wright he anticipating extra space over and above their regular weekly acs. If we could get. aur advertising copy so that we could work it in on Mon. days of each week, then it would leave Tuesdays clear for news copy, and in lessening the pressure of Tuesday's work, would also allow us • time to concentrate on news and. the net result would he a better paper. We would ask local advertisers to consider our problem, and If at all pos- sible, to oo-operate. Who knows, we Wright get away from the drudgery of an 18 or 20 hour work -day every Tuesday, which woul.i certainly be a relief here at the office. Those sessions seem to get longer ev- ery year, Now I'.ector At Merlin Writing to renew his subscription to The Standard, the Rev. W. E. Bramtv.rll remarks in his letter: Plcase find enclosed cheque for $2.50 for The Standard. We enjoy reading the paper which takes us back to happy t times and friendly people We think of Blyth as "our home" in Canada," Rev. Mr. Bramwell Who moved from Trinity Anglican Church here to Mit- chell has now moved to a new field of service at Merlin. His many Blyth friends will be happy to hear that he, Mrs. Bramwell and family are well and happy, and that they continue to be in- terested in the doings of Blyth, Paid Fraternal Visit Here Mr. C. S. Farmer, of Toronto, was calling on fraternal friends in this dis• triol on Wednesday, and following a visit with Mr. R. D. Munro, of Auburn, came to Blyth where he called at The Standard .Office. Mr. Farther is n teacher in North Toronto Collegiate, and is presently Senior Warden of the Huron -Bruce I114asonic Lodge in Toronto, which was originally made tip of old boys from the Counties of Huron and Bruce. Mr.. Farmer will be Worshipful Mas- ter of the lodge next year, and extend- ed a cordial fraternal invitation to all Huron -Bruce Masons to,visit the lodge whenever they have an opportunity. Mr. Farmer had his movie camera with him and took pictures of The Standard Office stuff, He was also intending to call on Mrs. 1. Brown, 1 who is holidaying at her home here at !present, and he wished to get some pictures of the Wilford homestead, he being a personal friend of the late Dr. Wilford, Special Note to Legion Members, and Members of the Ladies' Auxiliary Blyth Branch No, 420, Canadian Leg- ion, and members of the Ladies' Aux. iliory to the Canadian Legion, will meet at the Union Cemetery on Sunday.

Clarke Rural women throughout On- tario are definitely taking an active interest in the economic problems of the world, They want to know and to understand other women's problems and how they deal with them, If it were not so, why would five hundred W.I. members travel many miles to Guelph to hear Mrs. Alice Berry from Australia, president of the Associated Countrywo- men of the World. Of course they wanted of hear her—and none that I know of came away disappointed. In this column I make no attempt to report ver- batim this or any other meeting but I like to scrt of give you a few sidelights on the main event. For instance, 1 was much im- pressed with 'the wonderful job of preparation that must have preceded the banquet given in honour of Mrs, Berry. Five hun- dred tickets, neither more nor less, were available for the ban- quet and these tickets were dis- tributed among the various branches weeks ahead of time— the number of tickets allotted to each branch being carefully worked out on a percentage basis according to membership, Late applicants could get' tickets only if there were cancellations. This exact distribution of tickets naturally simplified the job of catering. And what a meal that was! Chicken dinner, done to a turn—and enough on every plate to satisfy the heartiest appetite. Following the toasts there was community singing — led by Padre W. A. Young, of course — which gave the quiet and efli- OFFICIAL POST OFFICE BEESNESS — Dead Letter Superintendent Lester, Bricks of New York Cl y's general post office cancels a live issue in basement of the building with a DDT -type aersol bomb. One of four beehives en route from Georgia to Maine via parcel post broke open and kept things humming for an hour or so, Postal employees were faced with a honey of a predicament before buzzness got back to normal, cient waitresses a chance to re- move the main dishes. Chairs backing the head table were turned around so the • entire audience faced the speakers. The head table guests, in pro- posing and responding to the various toasts, contributed a lot to the program, as did the Campus Choristers with their delightful group singing, Mrs, Gordon MacPhatter, president F,W.I,O,, warned 'Dr. MacLach- lan that the 60th W,I, Anniver- sary was coming up next year when the O.A.C. would probably be once more involved in W.I. celebrations, (Another treat _in store for rural women!) Mrs, Berry chose as the theme of her address "When you have friends and neighbours, the world is a happier place:' Homely words but with a depth of meaning. If I may add my own observation I would say we need to do everything we can to foster the relationship be- tween friends and neighbours. It is a relationship we are In danger of losing, what with tele- vision and easy transportation to nearby towns and cities. Sometimes we may think we can get along without friends and neighbours but then some- thing happens—an accident or illness in the family—neighbours come to the rescue and then we realise we can't get along with- out them at all. But of course Mrs, Berry's meaning had a wider significance, implying that neighbourliness now recognises no boundaries; the only barriers that exist arc in our under- standing of one another among different races and creeds — boundaries that can and should be overcome. Mrs, Berry can speak with authority as her tra- vels take her to many countries ' of the world where she is given the opportunity to observe rural living conditions in each coun- try that she visits. The next time Mcs, Berry meets with our W.I. Provincial officers will be in Ceylon at the Tri -Annual Convention ,of :the,' A.C.W.W. I am sure everyone is glad that Mrs. Gordon Mac- Phatter will be on that trip. It will be a fitting finish to her years of service, faithfully ful- filled on behalf of the W,I, members of Ontario. At the conclusion of the ban- , quet at Guelph the 500 delegates filed out of Creelman Hall, chat- ting, laughing and exchanging greetings with fellow members from many parts of Ontario, many of whom never see each other except at W.I. gatherings. As I stood to one side watching the orderly exit from the Hall I thought what a good illustra- tion it was of Mrs, Berry's theme '—"when you have friends and neighbours the world is a hap- pier place," Outside the hall the crowds dispersed, some to wait- ing cars, a few to chartered buses, It was after eleven o'clock and many of the women were a long distance from home. I hope everyone of them had someone at home to take over the. chores next morning so mother, sister or daughter could sleep in. Or even convention -trotting grand- ma . , . but definitely, For grandma doesn't stay home with her knitting these days. She is often the most enthusiastic W.I. member of the family. And when it comes to conventions and such like, she is right there, Johnny - on - the.- spot, I wish sometime the chairman of one of these conventions would ask for a showing of hands from the grandmothers present, Obviously grandmother never had it so good. They take over while the younger women raise their fam- ilies, Or they ' baby-sit while daughter goes to the meetings. In that way we have a happy mingling of young and old, all the way from officials to ordi- nary members, "Young and old" did I say? That is a mistake. It should be "the young and the not -quite -so -young." After all, even globe -encircling Mrs, Ber- ry is a grandmother—and no one could think of her as old! Mo de rn Etiquette... Q. Are there any special oc- casionis when a man precedes a woman whom he is accompany- ing? A. Yes — when the way is uncertain or dangerous, such as when pushing their way through a boisterous crowd, He also pre- cedes her when alighting from a vehicle so that he can better assist her in alighting, Q. How long should a widow wear deep mourning after the death of her husband? A. Deep n}ourning is •very seldom worn these days. It is all right to wear a touch of white with dark clothing, The .usual time is a year. Q. At which side of a person at the table are the beverages placed, filled, and removed? A. At his right. Q. When there are a good many people present on some formal occasion, is it essential that any one guest be introduced to every other member of the group? A, No, A new arrival may be introduced to one or two per- sons, or he may be left to talk with those nearby without ex- changing names. Q.

Vacation time drama pictured is at Reading Station, but will be dupla• cated nationwide many times as camp Vsacon g:.t, in full swina a How insults Win Baseball Games When Enos (Country) Slaugh- ter steps up to bat in a close ball game. you can, ifyou listen closely, hear 'the rival dugout "go to work" on him, The voices are shrill, the remarks pointed, leaving little to the imagination, because Slaughter has been ma?- ried five times, "Here's old Marryin' Sam," they chorus, Then, as Slaughter faces the pitcher, one voice rings out over the rest; "What do you do with your old wives, Tommy Manville?" These hecklers aren't some of Slaughter's former in-laws; nor do they have any personal ill feeling toward him. They simply want to•"get his goat" and this Li the best bit of information they've got to do it with. And the rough riders of the diamond don't hesitate to use the sharpest "needle" handy to get under in opponent's skin, It may be coarse; it may be crude; it may even be sheer nonsense, But whatever it is the baseball "jockeys" will use it if there's the slightest chance it will shake the rival player's concentration by making him angry. Prime targets are players with "rabbit ears," the guys who "go up in smoke" when insulted because they're overly sensitive. But everybody In baseball gets his full share, The dugout jockey goes far beyond the "holler" by which a "live" bench aims at inspiring the home team. The jockey is simply out to get a barb into the opposition and if he hasn't any insult handy, he'll make one up. Thus the ball player must ex- pect to run the gauntlet con- tinually. The "needling" ranges through his temperament, weak- nesses, romances, unguarded statements and particularly his physical appearance. Take the case of Yogi Berra, the Yankee catcher who is short, squat and somewhat simian - looking, When he was married, Birdie Tebbetts greeted him one bright afternoon with: How .Can l? By Anne - Ashley • Q. How can I test the quality at coffee? A. By putting a spoonful in a glass ot cold water and adding a few drops of lemon juice. If the coffee is pure it will remain on top of the water; if not, the water will become discolored. Q. What can be done to a worn shoe lining? A. If the shoe lining has worn in places, which of course wears out the stockings very quickly, paste strips of adhesive tape over the worn places. Q. How can I remove water spots from varnished tables or furniture? A. By rubbing with a cloth or feather dipped in oil of camphor. Q. IIQW can I nlakc a chicken, or turkey, white, juicy and ten- der? A. After cleaning the fowl, rub the inside .and outside thor- oughly with a lemon before put- ting in the dressing. This makes the meat white, juicy and ten- der. Adding a tablespoonful of vinegar to the water when boiling also helps to make it tender. Q. How can I prevent tearing the hem of curtains with the rod? A. Do not starch tho hem when laundering sash curtains; the rod can then be put in with- out tearing. Put an old glove Anger or a thimble over the end of the rod and the curtain will go on smoothly, Q. Ilow can I mend cracked erockery? , A. If a cracked peice of croc- kery is boiled in sweet milk, it will often be restored to use, "Hey, Yogi, how does your bride like living in a tree?" It was too good to pass up and every bench jockey in the league grabbed it, Wherever Yogi went other players adopted gorilla - like poses, hung from dugout ceilings, scratched themselves and greeted him with Tarzan- ]ike screams. Yogi still hasn't heard the end of it, Pity the poor players like Gnarl Furillo, Ralph Kiner, Warren Spahn or .Ralph Branca, boys with a "schnozz," And. now that they're on the same team, Mic- key McDermott will quit walk- ing around on his knees in the dugout whenever tiny Phil Riz- zuto comes to bat, Things promise to be just a bit more quiet this year now that Leo Durocher is gone, "The -Lip" could "dish it out" even better, perhaps, than the famed John McGraw or Jimmy Dykes, It's quite possible, too, that Durocher was the worst (or the best) of all time because he could, at times, cut like a knife, and it kept him in trouble from the start to the finish of his ca- reer, writes Oscar Fraley in "The Police Gazette," Back in 1928, when he was one of the freshest bushers ever to break into the majors, Duro- cher was playing second base for the Yankees. New York had - clinched the pennant in the first game of a double header, and Leo was feeling his oats. There were two out in the ninth inning of the second game and "Fatty" Fothergill, the overstuffed De- troit outfielder, was coming to bat when Durocher dashed up to the plate umpire. "Stop!" he screamed. "Don't you know it's illegal to let two men bat at the same time?" Fothergill tried to brain Du- rocher with a bat, and many have been sorry since then that "Fatty" didn't. Two of them are Carl, Furillo of the Dodgers and Al Rosen of the Cleveland In- dians. Durocher "got on" Furillo so mercilessly, and with such un- printable abandon, in 1953, that they squared off in a slugging match in which Carl suffered a broken finger. Then, in an exhi- bition game between the New York Giants and the Indians last spring, Durocher needled Cleve- land's Al Rosen so badly that they went at it. "It wasn't that he kept yel- ling 'Show us your muscles,' " said Rosen, "it was the other things, the dirty names, that made me mad," Jockeying which got out of hand touched off a feud,between Billy Martin of the Yankees, one of the best in the business to- day, and Jim Piersall of the Boston Red Sox a couple of years back. The taunts went from bad to worse until Piersall finally exploded: "You've got no guts, Martin!" "You don't have a gut in your whole carcass!" Billy replied, They met under the stands and were whaling the daylights out of each other when finally pulled apart. During the last World Series between the Dodgers and Yan- kees, the pugnacious and fisti- cally-adept Martin was ready to go at it again when Don New- combe began riding' him. "I'm ready to take you on any time you're ready," Martin raged, "so put up or shut up!" There is little jockeying done on the color, race or religion of a• player, though when Jackie Robinson broke the color bar- rier he did for a time take a lot of bad riding. Subsequently, when he had clinched his place as one of the game's greatest players, he became one of the game's top needlers, Thus today he stands among such heckling artists as Martin, McDermott, Tebbetts, Charley Grimm, Casey Stengel, Jake PItler, Nelson Fox, Chuck Dressen and Piersall.

Wrestler Can Beat Fighter Joe Louis say3 ther,3 isn't a boxer alive who could knock out a topnotch wrestler such as Verne Gagne or Luo Thesz, and "that goes for 'Rocky Marciano, too." The ex -champ, who can't un- erstand the rash of press crit - ism over his entry into wrest- ling, has a lot of company' in this view. Primo Carnera ;and Tony Galenti agree; but Joe Walcott is the only fighter - turned -wrestler who doesntt "If a rassler rassles elm," says Walcott, "I'll fight any of 'em and lick 'em. Trouble is, rasslers don't abide by the rules. They punch and kick and they won't stand up." Louis put in enough time as a wrestling referee around, the country to convince himself that, as a fighter, he'd never be able to lick the good wrestlers, "I'd have: to take out a wrest.... ler with one punch," he said... "That don't happen too often; They stay low and keep their . chins in, and iZ they drop you, . you don't have a chance." At the same time Louis ex- plained that wrestling is a soft touch compared 'with fighting. "I'm 42 years old," he says, nand I could rassle every night ight of the week, In fact, I got this offer from Ray Fabini of Philadelphia which guaran- tees me $150,000 a year to go on tour. But I don't want ao rassle six, sometimes seven nights a week. Got too many other businesses. "But take the fighters. If they fight one a month, they're busy. They gotta be young and full of endurance, In rasslin', you walk around a lot, I weighed 211 as a fighter. Now I'm 240 and that's good rasslin' weight." In the days when wrestling was considered more of a sport than 'a sideshow, you could al- ways get an argument by sug- gesting that a Jim Londos or a Strangler Lewis or a Gus Sonnenberg could lick the best heavyweight fighters going. This generally made the fight mob scream "foul!" Yet in the few instances when wrestlers went in against figh- ters, on the up -and -up, the fighter never had a chance. This was so far back as the turn of the cenury. Once Farmer Burns, middleweight wrestling champ, took on Billy Papke, a great middleweight fighter, and the wrestler ended it all without even getting a sweat up. On the other hand few wrestlers ever made much of a dent in boxing. Frank Gotch, a great grunt -and - groaned who fancied himself a boxer, found out you couldn't mix 'em one night in Dawson City Alaska,, in 1901, Gotch was touring the ter- ritory, taking on all corners in wrestling bouts, when 1"rank Slavin, the Australian heavy- weight champ, challenged him to fight. Slavin was in the Klon- dike prospecting for nuggets of gold. • The challenge was assepted, winner take all, Gotch, magnifi- cently proportioned, looked like 'a fighter, Ho was handsome and ,quick on his feet—but Slavin knew too much, At the end of the fourth round Gotch was bleeding from the mouth and nose, and one eye was battered to a closed slit, writes Herb Goren in "The Police Gazette. At the bell for the fifth round, Gotch, furious over his inability to land a solid punch, rushed Slavin to the ropes, picked him up and heaved him into the tenth row. Slavin, badly shaken, crawled back to continue the hostilities, but the referee had already disqualified Gotch. BLUENOSE — There were two Blue- noses in Yarmouth, N.S., when the luxury passenger-carferry plying be- tween Yarmouth and Bar Harbor, Me., was officially introduced into service recently. She carries 600 passengers and 150 automobiles and is a new tourist link between New England and the Maritime provinces. Yarmouth cele- brated with a festival whose queen, Miss Winnifred Grey, was suitably de- corated by Stanley F. Dingle, vice-pre- sident, Canadian National Railways, which operates the service. Capt. Richard E. Davie, master of M/V "Bluenose" is an interested spectator. Joe Louis When it was over, Slavin re- marked: "Gotch ought to stick to his own trade. He's the best wrestler I ever. fought with." Maybe the same should be said of Louis, but Joe is too old to fight, and he could use the wrestling dough. Besides, as Tony Galento puts it: "You're never too old to rassle." Galento, who once floored Louis in a heavyweight title match before Joe stopped him, has this• advice: "Joe, you're a nice guy and you were a great .fighter. If you're goi;na rassle, better learn the holds. Get somebody to teach you, In two, three months, may- be you'll learn." This is sage advice for any- body in any business, particu- lary for the fighter turned wrest- ler. Jae doesn't look so pretty on the mat. Lots of folks say it is beneath Louis' dignity; but but this only gets Joe mad." Rudy Dusek, a big name in wrestling, welcomed Louis into the game. "I'm 53 now, and I wrestled until two years ago," Dusek says. "Joe should have at least five profitable years as a wrest- ler. If I was him I wouldn't go in against a Thesz or a Gagne for a year or two, at least, but he ought to do good against the big, slow-moving guys. He re- fereed a lot and should have picked up something. And it would be interesting to see what a guy who can hit as hard as Joe can do against the wrest- lers." Did that mean Louis could haul off with his Sunday punch? "Not exactly," Dusek said, "But he is allowed to hit with the side of the his fist. An el- bow .smash or a rabbit punch is all part of the wrestling game. He could chop up a lot of guys:" As for Carnera, who recently opened a bar and restaurant in Los Angeles, he was a carnival strong man and a continental freak before becoming a wrest- ler, "Louis never wrestled before," he said. "This is not like boxing. To wrestle, you must know your way around," As Dusek puts it: "Louis is supposed to have made four and a half million dollars by fight- ing, but he got cut up so bad he wound up owing the govern- ment a million bucks in taxes. In wrestling he won't get cut up 14 different ways." Dusek, - like all wrestlers, thinks it would be a joke for any fighter to• come into .the ring with gloves on and try to stop a wrestler. "It's been tried many tinges, and always the fighter never had a chance. Like Louis says, the fighter would have to end it with one punch. Once the wrestler crowded in, the fighter would be a dead duck." There was a funny sequel to Louis' first wrestling match with Cowboy Rocky Lee. Third man in the ring was Joe Walcott. Lee took exception to the way Walcott handled the match, called him a cheese champ and snowed him Under with insults. "Cowboy," said Walcott, "If you think I couldn't fight, you're welcome to take me on any night in the week." That's the way Walcott tells it, and a week later they were thrown in together, with gloves on in Baltimore. "In the first round," said Wal- cott, "I showed Lee a little of the technique that brought me the heavyweight championship. I just wanted to tease him a little bit. In the next round I knocked him out. I don't like rasslers nohow. They're all musclebound, and they can't fight a lick, and I think If they rassled according to the rules, I could stop any one of them by fighting." That's Walcott's story, but his version of the rules may not necessarily be right. Louis could be just as vigorous in defence al boxing, particularly since he still draws $20,000 a year from the International Boxing Club as a so-called ambassador of the game, but he just doesn't be- lieve that anyfighter has a chance against a wrestler. "You could throw in Marciano against any real good wrestler," says Louis, "and say: 'Rocky, do you want to fight with gloves or without gloves. Take your choice', It won't matter. The rassler, he comes in real low, and he's on you quick, and you don't have a chance." Joe paused, then added: "A fighter's got no more chance than a man in a man - wife argument. The man always loses." U.S. Guided Missile Travels 2000 Miles The United States has suc- ceeded in squirting a guided missile 2,000 miles over the ocean, The record-breaking flight — for a Western nation at least — was revealed in one of a series of announcements of United States progress in rocket bomb warfare. The intercontinental weapon, a Northrop "Snark," flew 2,000 miles over the Carribean from a launching base in Florida. Jet engined, and flying at only about the speed of sound, it was in effect a pilotless bomber. The American defence de- partment promptly announced however that the Snark is to be superceded soon by an inter- continental missile of longer range. This, it is believed, would be a rocket -powered bomb which would fly above the atmosphere and descend upon its target at high speed — prob- ably twice the speed of sound at least. In the field of short-range guided missiles, the Americans announced ,an "exceptionally high" degree of reliability in its Petrel guided missile which arms aircraft. The Petrel, which seeks out its target by radar and 'homes on it, can be used in air -to - ground or air -to -submarine combat. "Launched by patrol aircraft well outside the range of the target's air defence, the missile attacks at high speed and with devastating effect," the joint announcement said. "Use of the new missile thus will save the plane pilot from the anti-aircraft hazards which attack -plane aviators met in the Second World War when they closed on the target.

First, because our customs tariff is low, with many items on the free list. Secondly, the rapid growth of the country is expanding our home market at a pace Canada never lamas known before. The steel industry here in Canada has expanded some- what faster than has the home market, so that today Can- adians need to import less of most kinds of steel than in earlier days.. On occasion, steel from other countries is sold here at prices below Canadian costs. This occurs when there are prolonged or temporary surpluses elsewhere, But a pick- up in demand in the exporting country reduces or extin- guishes these external sources of supply. That is why, year in and year out, the Canadian producer is the most reliable source of supply.

Electronic Mailman The latest Book of Knowledge Annual records that the Cana- dian Post Office has recently spent a million dollars experi- menting with a unique system of electronic mail -sorting. An electronic keyboard translates the address of an envelope into a code of dashes and stamps the code on the back of the en- velope, Next the coded letter is passed to a "reader" which flashes the code to the central "brain." In a fraction of a sec- ond the "brain" issues direc- tions for sorting the letter, which is then deposited in the exact slot for its destination, If this device works out as well as it is expected to it will eventually be installed in main post offices throughout the country. The larger models, it is believed, will do the work of about four hundred men and sort upwards of 150,000 letters an hour. The experiment is be- ing watched with keen interest by postal officials in the U.S.A. and elsewhere in the hope that it will solve the pressing prob- lem of how to deal efficiently with the tremendous and in- creasing pressure on 'mail serv- ices everywhere. Takes To The Air In New Film Out of his western garb for the first time in quite awhile, Gary Cooper is back in the air again in "The Court -Martial of Billy Mitchell," Actually Cooper start- ed out in films as a flier and is as much at home in the air as he is with six-guns strapped to his waist. Far removed from his "yup" and "nope" parts, Cooper plays General Billy Mitchell, who was known as a very talkative guy, in the Warner Bros, Film. Al- though the long, lean actor makes no effort to keep up with General Mitchell's conversation- al pace, he does have several long speeches—long for Cooper, that is—in the Army trial scenes when he is being questioned. When asked how he felt about his "talkative" role, Cooper re- plied: "Well, I talk more in this pic- ture than I would in a western, but I don't think there's so much difference," However, a glance at the script, shows that Gary has so- lid pages of dialogue as he un- dergoes the ordeal of defending his honor and Ideas about air power from the probes and jibes of Fred Clark and Rod Steiger who play the Arrr>,y prosecutors.

Best Man Picked Groom's Pockets Throwing a farewell party for her friends on the night before her wedding, a pretty young bride-to-be answered a knock at the door and was contorted by a masked and armed man, "This Is a hold-up! lie snapped. J3ut before lie could step inside the ' house she bad acted with lightning speed, courageously sending the gun flying from lois hand and, with the help of her guests who rallied round, overpowering him. Then cause the shock, As the ruask was removed she shrieked with dismay. The bandit was the man she was due to marry. IIe aald he needed money to pay for their honeymoon! Romance and crime are, unfort- unately, often wired, as that story from Colombia, 5, America, illust- rates, So does the case of the Can- adian bridegroom who was to leave a Winnipeg church with bis radiant bride on his arm, when be found to his horror that his pock- ets hnd been picked, No•guest was allowed to leave. Police were called in. An inten- sive search was made and the crim- inal was found to be none other than ...the best roan. Fortunately, crime still has its occnsloual funny side. Like tho time a masked man rushed into a bank in a small town In Ohio, whip- ped a gun from his pocket and pointed It at the cushier, Then be thrust a bag on the counter nail ordered the other to stuff It full of notes. Nervously, the clerk obeyed. But be couldn't help noticing that the bandit was trembling with fear, too, and suddenly — to Ills astonish- ment — lie saw the violently slink - Ing gun start to fall to pieces, clot - tering on to the floor at the band- it's feet as be bolted In terror from the bank. There's also the example of the bow bandit who rushed into a Det- rlot back, 'Phis Is a hold-up!" and accidentally shot himself in the foot as he dragged his gun from his pocket! The staff nursed bin until an ambulance arrived. Escape from the scene of the crime can be hilarious. There have been three Instances — one in Brit- ain — •111 which escaping bandits have climbed into police ears, hav- ing mistaken thele for taxis! There Is also the classic case of the two men who robbed passengers on a tram in n Mid -West American town, After collecting the loot, they jumped from the tram and raced down side streets, They carne out on to a ronin road, saw a tram coming, and climbed aboard. It wits the tram they had just robbed—coming back on its return journey. Many crooks believe that 1hel' selection of it profession does not menu that they need be ill-mnnuer- ed.

All be got for his efforts was $3.00 worth of stamps. When three Glaswegians broke into n grocery, the police arrived and they had to leave hurriedly. All they, got was $10,00 In small change. But the police got the three expensive bicycles tliey left behind. Thieves, too, have. so badly injured themselves in breaking -in that all they have stolen is ban- dages and disinfectant from tbo first-aid kit. There's a lot of truth in the saying, "Some people will steal any- thing." Dustmen in an Australian town complained to the authorities that somebody with a lorry hnd been round tbo erects five minutes ahead of them and emptied all the dustbins, Then there is the thief who broke into the Californian "pen•frlends" club and stole all the records of men and women on the flrm'a books, In Phoenix, Arizona, somebody stole a "Dog for Sale" hoarding, then came back next day and stole the dog. Crooks are quick to act when opportunity accidentally knocks, to make a turn. When a Paris bank van collided A Los Angles woman bad a $3,000 ring stolen from her finger as Rile put her arta out of her car window to make a turn, When a Paris bunk van collided with a car and spilled banknotes over the roads, officials recovered only n quarter of the million francs blown over the pavements. Ono of the craziest crimes ever recorded took place at Venice, California, recently. A bandit enter- ed a suburban -house and tied up the housewife and her two poste, But before he could ransack the place, there was a knock. Two more guests arrived, Before he hnd fiuished tying them, it baby iri the next roost began to cry, and he was forced to release and wntch the housewife while silo attended to the child. Before he could safely rope the housewife down again, the tele- phone and then the front dour bell began to ring. Disgusted, the bandit left the house empty-handed, Stolen Kiss Brought, Fortune Never had the romantic young Swede seen such attractive ruby - red lips as those of the blonde New York shop clerk, As she walked briskly towards her bus stop, he overtook her and began to speak, But she ig- nored him and increased her pace, Looking round swiftly to see that no one was near, he put his arms round her and kissed her lips ardently, Then things hap- pened. Freeing herself, the girl screamed, Up dashed several people, seized the dazed young Swede and handed him over to a policeman. He paid a fine of . twelve dol- lars after the indignant girl had given evidence against him, It was more than he could afford but, he mused, the kill was worth it. And now for the surprising sequel. When the incident of the stolen kiss was reported in the newspapers, the publicity re- vealed to a U,S. firm of solicitors that the amorous Swede was the missing heir to a $75,000 fortune, "We have been trying to trace you in America for three years," he was told, "But for that pretty girl and the kiss you gave her, we might' never have found you." Kisses which bring fortunes are rare, but one snatched im- pulsively, at a New Year's party in Birmingham nearly sixty years ago brought happiness and prosperity to a penniless clerk. He had gate-crashed the party only to find that he knew nobody there, Then he saw a lovely girl sitting alone in a dimly-lit al- cove and looking as dejected as himself, - He went over to her and she explained that her brother, who had brought her to the party, had been called away suddenly, Overcome by her charms, the clerk seized a sprig of mistletoe and, holding it over the girl, kissed her, At that moment her brother—an athletic six-footer— returned.. - Assuming his sister was being kissed by a stranger against her will, he waded in and struck him. The clerk, a brilliant ama- teur boxer, knocked the brother down, The girl was so delighted that they were married three months later and her brother was best man, And the once -penniless clerk became a $100 -a -week partner in his father-in-law's business. Surface Affects Amount of Paint A lot of people run into trou- ble in painting their homes be- cause they haven't figured be- fore they started just how much paint they would actually need. By the time they get halfway through they decide that the job is taking too much paint and costing too much money. What a lot of them do then is to switch to some cheap off brand of paint and the final result is not often so good. The amount of paint required for a house will depend on the size of the house, the number of coats and the type of surface you arc painting. It' will also depend on the kind of paint you use. It's easy enough to figure out the number of square feet of surface you have to cover— simply multiply the width of each wall by its height and then add them all together. If your house is covered with wood siding you can expect a gallon of paint to cover between 450 and 500 square feet on the first coat, On a second coat a gallon should cover about 550 square feet. Now if your house LAC is covered with wood ehinglea s gallon, on the Mat coat' will cover ordy about 350 square feet and about 400 square feet on the second coat. If you have asbestos siding and use an asbestos shingle sid- ing paint, look for a coverage of about 200 square feet per gallon on the first coat and about 400 square feet for the second coat, A paint suitable for use on brick siding will give you about the same coverage, The reason you get such poor coverage on wood shingles, as- bestos and brick is because these surfaces are more porous than ordinary wood siding and they quickly absorb much /of the paint from the first coat. The second coat does better, How to Reduce Traffic Deaths According to James S, Kem- per, former U.S.ambassador to Brazil and now 'an automobile insurance executive, there IS a way to reduce traffic deaths by 88 per cent: See to it that every driver obeys the law, The companies Kemper heads have determined, he says, that 33,700 of the 38,000 persons who were killed in motor "acci- dents" last year lost their lives because of traffic violations, Viewed in that light, traffic lawlessness has become prob- ably the greatest scourge of modern life, And enforcement of traffic laws, strictly and im- partially, is more Important than the enforcement of laws against m u r der and other homicides. There is a strange psychology about traffic violations that de- serves special study. Millions of Americans who are law-abid- ing in all other respects, seem to feel no compulsion whatever to obey traffic rules. How high will the traffic tell have to go before a climate favorable to the laws which have been written to keep us all alive on streets and high- ways can be created?—"Denver Post." LLOYD'S THIRD CENTURY According to the Book of Knowledge, Lloyd's of London, the world's greatest marine in- surance organization, dates from the end of the 17th century, when a group of insurance men met to transact business at Ed- ward Lloyd's coffee house, It is not an insurance company but an association of individual underwriters.

Glass silage is a general term applied to meadow crops that have been cut and stored in a green stage of development so that fermentation takes place, This green material may be stored with or without pre- servatives or conditioners such as acids, molasses, ground grains, etc., used to control fer- mentation during storage. • • * According to V, S. Logan, Canada Department of Agricul- ture, a renewed interest in the feeding of grags silage to dairy cattle has taken place in Canada in recent years. Part of the rea- son for this has been the grow- ing realization of the importance of high quality roughage for economical milk production. The need for retaining high feed value in the roughage, difficult to achieve when haying wea- ther is unfavourable, has stimu- lated the move toward storing roughage as silage, Improved machines for handling the green material have simplified silage production and removed much of the earlier objection to this system of storing roughage. • • • Grass silage generally contains a high proportion of protein compared to the total digestible nutrients in the feed. Addition of preservatives to silage may increase palatability of the feed and add slightly to its feeding value. However, the trend is to- ward curing silage without pre- servatives. • • • Like anything else silage has advantages and disadvantages, There Is less wastage of feed- ing time than with hay, and less storage space is required as compared with an equivalent amountof feeding value in the form of hay. Also some areas which are unsuited to growing other succulent feeds will pro- duce good grass yields which can be turned into silage, The disadvantages of silage are the objectionable odors that may develop, and during severe weather freezing may occur. • • • Further details on Grass Silage in Dairy Cattle Rations can be obtained by writing to the Information Service, Cana- dian Department of Agriculture in Ottawa and requesting Publication No. 929. • • • , Canadians spend about 25 per cent of their income on food and approximately seven cents of each food dollar is spent on poultry products¢ It the poultry industry is to gain a larger share of the consumer food dol- lar, attention must be given to efficiency in production pro- cessing and merchandising and SAltri SAllas "Just why do I have to keep asking for the time?" • the importance of good promo- tional work must be recognized, • • • Canadians are eating more beef, pork and poultry than they did in the past. Last year the per capita consumption of poul- try meat was 29.7 pounds, an increase of approximately 8 pounds since 1950, Since 1953 beef consumption has increased by about 7 pounds per person and pork has increased approxi- mately 3 pounds during this same period. Considering this greater demand for all meats and an increase in population of about 3 per cent each year it appears that there is, and should continue to be, a, good matter of competition between the various industries involved in the meat business and of course personal consumption preference as to which branch will com- mand the majority of the con- sumer market. • • • There has been a gradual transition in the development of the poultry industry, A very few years ago poultry produc- tion -was a sideline but now it is rapidly becoming a highly specialized farm enterprise. Ef- ficient laying flocks are replac- ing the old casual layer and ultra -modern broiler plants in existence at the present time are indicative of the transition in the production of poultry meat. • •_ • Recent acceptance of turkeys by the Canadian consumer has been achieved by the introduc- tion of small light weight birds and new processing and pac- kaging techniques. This has meant a higher consumption of turkeys during holiday and so- called off-season periods. Pub- lic demand for turkeys in 1956 should be strong but the short run price outlook like that for any other poultry product in general is largely influenced by supply. Production of turkeys in 1956 will likely be higher than last year "but the rapidly expanding domestic market should off -set the effect this greater supply may have on price. • • • The numbers of broiler chic- kens sold to growers in Canada in 1955 were the highest on re- cord but demand is continuing at a high level and consumption this year will probably exceed that of 1955. However, the pro- ducer will have to plan produc- tion programs to meet market r'equir'ements if the cost price relationship of 1955 is to be maintained. • • • Changes in merchandising and processing methods have been geared to accommodate Targe scale production and distribu- tion, and today the public is be- ginning to enjoy a higher quali- ty poultry product, packaged in a more convenient and attrac- tive form than ever before. These changes, however, are forcing poultrymen to adopt the most modern production tech- niques and management prac- tices, including a thorough knowledge of current market trends and conditions.

Robbery On a Wholesale Scale Good - looking and suave James Brydges was the eldest son of the eighth Lord Chan- dos of Sudeley, It was an old title with not much money at- tached. Short of cash, both Lord Chan- dos and his heir had had to "go into businessy the father as ambassador to Constantinople, the son as M.P. for Hereford. But neither man made much of a stir in the world. James, restless and..JnbPttpus, began to look around. for ::quicker, surer ways to wealth' than a scat in Parliament. Considering matters with a cool, unsentimental eye, he de- cided that the Princess Anne's card parties had more to of- fer than attendance at the House. James had heard how "Bran- dy Nan" — as the Princess was nicknamed — hadarranged for the notorious gambler "Beau" Law to escape from a con- demned cell and James realiz- ed that the Princess had a weakness not only for gambling but for gamblers as well. He determined to try his luck — in more senses than one—at the Princess's card -table. There was, of course, no dif- ficulty in introducing himself into the exclusive circle. He was, a most personable young man, and as heir to a "good" peerage, he was naturally ac- ceptable in royal society. He often sat at the Princess's table and was soon holding a thick wad of Anne's I.O.Us, They were worthless scraps of paper but James was determin- ed to make a handsome profit out of them, He never pressed the matter of the royal debts. Cool, charm- ing and gay, he would sit down, night after night, to play cards —never letting the innumerable glasses of brandy -sack cloud his judgment; and he would invari- ably go home in the dawn, rich- er—on paper—by a few more hundreds or even a few more thousands. At last the time arrived when even Anne — cheerful debt - dodger as'she was — began to wonder why the Honourable James Brydges, M.P., was not pressing for his money. She knew, from Court gossip, hour the family was fixed; that the estates were mortgaged up to the hilt.. One night, during card -play, the Princess found herself sit- ting alone at table with James, Fortified by the courage of the bottle, she raised the question of her debts. "Why, Mr. Brydges," she ask- ed, "have you never pressed me for a settlement?" • . Brydges raised his carefully tended eyebrows, and laid a ringed hand on his flowered waistcoat. "I . . . press 'Your Royal Highness . ?" "Mr. Brydges, it is kind of you, But , . , do you not need the money? Can you afford to be so . . patient?" James's chance had"come. Af- fecting a regretful air, he sigh- ed, and murmured: "Well, no, perhaps not, But I am so de. voted to Your Royal Highness: that . . . well " It was not a difficult matter then to suggest that the quos• tion of the debts be left over until after the Princess had be. come Queen, And then, perhaps a job could be found for James? It was a solution which suit- ,, ed very well the loose morals of the time, By getting a public appointment, James would let the taxpayer settle Anne's debts and allow him to make a handsome profit on the deal. While Anne, for her part, would not need to worry any more about her inability to pay her debt of honour. James did not press his claim the moment that Anne became queen. He bided his time. The Union of England and Scotland was being pushed forward against loud public opposition on both sides of the Border, and James saw how it would be to his greater advantage to wait until the two countries were actually united as one political and national unit, The Act of Union was signed — and the armies and navies of the two nations were now all part of one single armed force. The time had come, James put forward his claim—and was. appointed Her Majesty's Pay- master General of the Forces abroad. It was a plum job; and now he was to show how much juice that plum could be made to yield. For five year's' 'James Brydges took his cut on every payment authorized by his department; whether it was to a gunsmith for a supply of muskets, or to a general for arrears cf pay. The office of Paymaster in those days combined the powers and functions of the Royal Army Service Corps, Royal Army Ordnance Corps, Naafi, Royal Army Pay Corps,and a consid- erable part of the Treasury. Nominally responsible to Par- liament, the ruler over this un- wieldy and all-powerful body was, in fact, completely in- dependent of control and almost of criticism, In those free -and - easy days all the Paymaster had to do was present a bill for which Parliament had — somehow — to find the money. James Brydges made this job pay him handsomely — far too handsomely, said the crit- ics, even in an age when it was considered quite legal to get as many 'perks" as possible, espe- cially from public appointments. No sooner had he taken of- fice than James set to work to build two magnificent mansions; one — "Canons" — at Edg- ware, the other — "Chandos House" — in Cavendish Square, the two to be connected by a tree -lined carriage -drive, , The two pavillions of the Cavendish Square mansion still survive. They were intended to house the gate -keepers — yet are to -day regarded as large houses. James, when he was build- ing his palace at Edgware, brought over the finest Italian painters and architects, , and used to boast that to keep a watch on the builders he em- ployed the finest accountant in England, For the Cavendish Square mansion alone, nearly 410,000,000 was allowed! It was a -pity, said some, that the Government hadn't em- ployed a battery of the finest accountants in England to su- pervise James's conduct as Paymaster General. For when at last the scandal of unpaid troops and undeliver- ed military and naval stores threatened to overturn the Government, they had to ask James to hand over his lucrat- ive office to some less ambiti- ous, less extravagant holder. Then the accountants did go in , , , and reported a deficiency of no less than $1,500,000,0001 Had James had it all? When he was asked to suggest where it had all gone, he shrugged his Elegant shoulders and murmur, ed the eighteenth - century equivalent of "Search mei" It seems incredible, but James was actually compensat- ed for loss of office. When Anne died, and George I came to the throne, he made James Vis- count Wilton, Earl al Carnar- von and Duke of Chandos — and when James died, at the age of seventy, he was still in possession not only of his ill- gotten fortune and his rtnde- ,served honours but, apparently, • the respect of the world. Yet the extraordinary case of James Brydges, Duke of Chan- dos, had a beneficial and last- ing effect on British national finances. After Brydges had resigned the post of Paymaster General, the ' old system was changed. Thereafter it would have been quite impossible for any public servant, however exalted, to fiddle on Brydges' astronomical scale. So that, after all, it was no bad thing that Queen Anne liked gambling — and that Brydges was a lucky player. Says Plants Have Ear For Music Have plants an ear for music? Do flowers possess a kind of sixth sense? Is it possible for trees to fall in love—or at least to show signs of tender passion similar to those of human being? Before you dismiss these as silly questions. Consider what has been happening at a uni- versity in Pondicherry, India, Large-scale research there into the sensitivity of plants is hav- ing astonishing results. Music is daily broadcast through microphones to listening plants. When "entertained" by carefully selected music, says a scientist, plants have been found to grow faster. And malty plants show a marked pre- ference for female crooners. I1 you are still incredulous, Dr. C. T, N. Singh, who has spent some years in this kind of research, should convince you, He says he has treated sugar cane, tapicoa, sweet pot- atoes and other plants to sooth- ing music with amazing results. His first visual proof that plants have an ear for music was when he saw a movement in a hydrilla leaf as he played tunelessly on a metal rod. The plant knew he was playing out of tune, he says, It is not unlikely, say othem experts, that plants have a sixth sense. One plant, a native of Cuba, has been known to pre- dict volcanic eruptions and earthquakes. It has no flowers and consists of a long stalk from which branch numerous twigs contain- ing rows of delicate -looking leaves. The leaves are highly sensitive to electric and mag- netic influences, They change colour or close, while the twigs bend themselves into curious positions, By being able to in- terpret the movements of the plant in response to electric cur - 11104 LESSON It.

If you have ever suspected that there is a greater mystery about a flower than as colour or scent, watch what happens to mimosa which scientists believe has feelings as acute as our own. One has proved that mimosa is provided with a highly devel- oped muscular system. It is easily depressed. A wisp sof cloud which obliterates the sun even for a moment will cause the mimosa to hang its head almost imperceptibly and lose its brightness. But the moment the cloud has passed the mimosa rejoices once more.
