G. McNall calling the meet- ing to order. The minutes of the last annual meet- ing were read by the Secretary, Mrs, Jean Berthot and approved. Commis- sioner James Phelan presented the financial statement. The chairman called on the various Commissioners for a few words, t Archie Young spoke of the heavy ex- penditure which the System had dur- ing the past year, but remarked that the expense had improved various portions of the System. James Phelan explained that in 1951 the System would be paying taxes, He did not believe that a Municipal System should be considered as a company, and should not be taxable. He went on to state that if taxation was inev- itable he believed the present system w.'s wrong. Tax should be paid so much per telephone to each township implicated. Concerning the question of increased rates, Mr. Phelan said that the Blytn System had the lowest rates, but that it cannot continue, Operating expen- ses will be up $1,000 in 1957 and a new switch board will han'e to replace the present one before too long, The cable in Blyth needs replacing in the very near future. Mr. Phelan also suggested that if sub- roribers had service complaints, nut to hesitate to get in touch with Lineman Donald Young, and they will be dealt with promptly. Chairman McNall also spoke of the increased operating costs. He alsu spoke favour ably about the work of Mr. Donald Young, the System's new lineman, and Nit that they were it, - deed fortunate to secure his services, Mr. Young had had experience with a much larger System and also with the dial system. Expenditures during the year had included a second-hand truck and a new safe for the protection of toll tickets and records. The depre- ciation reserve had been raised from 5 percent to 10 percent. Contnnissioners George McNall, Jas, Phelan and Archie Young were re- turned for another year.

ANNE I4IPST awn ram:w coun..teo "Dear Anne . Hirst: If more wives would keep on practicing half the charm and wit they used to land their man, I prob- phesy the divorce courts would be only half as popular. "Where is the vow 'for better or for worse' today? Women seem to see marriage as a trial affair, something to send back if it doesn't suit them. It is of- ten a shock for a bride to learn how little she knows the man she married; after the honey- moon he sheds his cloak of self-righteousness and destroys the very dreams he created. That need not be, if he would use his common sense; practic- ing kindness, courtesy and un- selfishness, and using his imag- ination, can perpetuate the il- lusion of happiness. "My husband was an only son and as spoiled as usual. I started catering to him, too, and I've never stopped. If I hadn't loved him so, I couldn't have done it; but he proved worth the trouble. "I am an outgoing person, he is not. I played on his vanity and his ego, and soon he began getting a kick out of his suc- cess with friends. Today he's a grand host, USED TACT "When our children came along, he was violently jealous until I built him up so fast in his own estimation that jealousy died a natural death; he has never doubted since that he is monarch in his own home. I set the younsters the example of respecting him, and it worked. As a result, we are a happy family and each one has sturdy character, yet is considerate and appreciative of all the others. "My husband is really grand- est person I ever knew. When we married, I was a widow of 24 and had a wayward young- ster of five who was a handful.The man came to love us both, and he straightened out my boy through understanding and dis- cipline well spiced with love.

I've been asked out enough, but she thinks 16 is too young to date. I'm so un- happy I don't want to live! • "I've no more privileges that if I were 12.

Liana Constantides, above, of Nicosia, Cyprus, is just one of 72 coed victims at the College of Em- poria. Since mid-October, the girls have had to resort to old- fashioned washtubs and scrub- bing boards. The dormitory's two modern automatic washers are shut down for the duration of the water shortage. NEW IDEAS IN BRITISH BAGS — Here is handbag news for the male fashion world. At left is a "travel sling," designed es- pecially for men on vacation or a weekend in the country. Whether this item will replace the worn wallet. Is debatable, but men will have ` to admit that its capacious interior is a ` practical solution to storing their many accessories. For years women have been jamming incredible amounts into their purses and. now there. is 'a bag, right, which will hold practically any. thing. For proof, English film star Susan Beaumont smiles prettily from her position inside the six -by -two -and -one -half -foot leather purse. But her companion might not look so gay if he had to carry it a distance. The items were shown recently at the Leather Goods Industries' Fair in London. Things are happening again in the Clarke family! Yes, indeed. Last week we were presented with another grandson — this time by Joy and Bob. Third grandson for us but the first ad- dition for them. We thought a little girl might have been a good ilea but somehow when the baby arrived, boy or girl, it didn't seem to matter. How can any- one be other than happy and thankful if both the mother and baby are all right? The baby weighed 71 pounds, .has fuzzy fair hair, a nice head and looks like his father. His everyday name will be "Ross" — what his full name will be has not yet' been decided. Last Sunday we were looking for them to come in. When they didn't appear I phoned Oakville about 8 p.m. and received the news that Joy had gone to hos- pital that morning., Bob, nat- urally, was very much at home, tinkering over his television set which had given up the ghost that very day. "Wouldn't you know it!" said Bob. Anyway it gave him something to do — and plenty of time to do it in — as Ross did not•arrive until 2 a.m. Monday. By that time the TV had also come to life, Partner and I stayed up until 12.30 hoping to get a phone call. We didn't get it so we went to bed — uneasy but quite certain that Bob would phone about six. It wasn't six but 3 o'clock when he phoned. And apparently he woke or neighbours but not us! We must have been dead to the world. We shall be a long while living that one down. Neither of us will ever dare to say again we can't sleep at night. At six o'clock the phone did ring and I was out of bed and at the phone before I realised it was a neighbour's ring, not ours at all. Our call came through about half an hour later. So that's that. Another squirm- ing little bit of humanity to lay claim to the odds and ends of knitting and needlework that grandma has been working at during the last two months. You know, it is a great privil- ege being a grandmother. At the hospital when we were permitted to look at the babies through glass windows another grand- mother said to the nurse on duty — "Is it all right for grand' father to comealong too?" . "No, I'm sorry, only the,grandmothers are allowed near the nursery." Poor grandpa — looks like you just don't count in the baby kingdom. But your turn will come, For instance 1 know Partner had great time last Sunday taking David and his to- boggan to all the Lest slides on the farm. That, of course, was a week ago, now a grandfather would have to, be a magician to find a snowslide at all. No white stuff left anywhere — just bare ground and a few patches of ice.. Such drastic changes in the weather. Well, our old farm Is dying a little more every week. Yester- day hydro men came along and felled the willow tree at the gate. Quite a landmark. True, there wasn't much of it left as Hurri- cane Hazel took a whack at it when she was on the rampage. But Partner did, not want the remains taken down then as willows have a way of growing again very quickly. It would ' have been a nice looking tree this , spring, new growth hiding the . old scars. But apparently the hydro and department • of highways thought otherwise and so the tree has gone. There must have been quite a lot of wil- lows when this place was home- steaded by the pioneer McNabb family as they called the farm "Willowbrae". Incidentally the Crown deed bears the date 1825, and that was several years after the McNabbs settled here. No doubt the first . home was a log house but the house in which we are now living was bullt in 1854, of hand -pressed brick, the walls .being four bricks deep. Left to itself I suppose this old house would still be standing long after sub -division houses have given up the ghost. The polished pine flooring is one and a half inches thick and there is ' an oak beam in the kitchen 14 by 8 inches in width and depth. The two chimneys are six feet wide. One has an open hearth with the original crane still there on which the cooking cauldron used to hang. And of course many of the original trees are still here. The hydro men wanted to know if they should take down the ancient poplar in front of the house. Cut it down, imagine that! A wonderful old shade tree that has sheltered four gen- erations of McNabbs, even be- fore we came along. "It isn't coming down while I'm here," said Partner. ' To us a house without trees is ,like a picture without a frame. And where there are trees there are birds. ' Since the snow went all kinds of birds have 'been flitting around. Yesterday Partner saw a crow. This morning he ac- tually saw, and ` heard, three geese — flying low and making a terrific noise, evidently lost. No robins yet but our baker re- ports having seen quite a few. Early spring? I hope so. Plenty of sunshine, dry winds, plus road graders, and the back con- cessions will soon be better for travelling. When the day dawns bright and clear as it has today don't you feel like singing — "Oh, what a beautiful morning, oh, what a beautiful day". Per• haps we can also add—"Every- thing's going,my way". It helps to think so — even 12 it isn't! Wayne was asked how he bud- geted his income. "Well," he said, "I spend about 40 per cent on food, 30 per cent on rent, 30 per cent on clothing, and, 20 per cent on amuset..ents, etc," "But that m.':es 120 per cent," replied his 'friend. "Don't I know it!" replied Wayne. 'Odd Happenings At Anct on Saks "Going!" warned an auction - oar for the second time, Then with a final, "Gone!" he brought down his hammer. The result was amazing — a violent explosion which flung.the auctioneer back against the wall as flames licked up it, and the terrified onlookers tried to strug- gle out of the building, Eventual- ly thirty-three were taken to hospital, and treated for cuts, burns, shock and minor injuries. But it wasn't the auctioneer's hammer that detonated the ex- .prosion. A man had thrown away a lighted cigarette end which ,landed in some inflam- mable paint — with explosive re- sults. That took place in a Worces- tershire village. In Dungannon, Ireland, there was an occurrence almost as remarkable, The auc- tioneer was busily shouting "Go- ing .., , going . , ," when his assistant suddenly disappeared. So did practically the whole crowd of bidders. The floor had ' given way and they all tumbled into the cellar beneath, scream- ing and shouting, Luckily, al- though a hundredweight of nails and a pig -feed boiler dropped on top of them only one was badly hurt. Amazing things certainly hap- pen at sales, "Once," an auction- eer reports, "two men were bid- ding against each other for a bureau. It was a nice piece of work, but the price went. up and up, far beyond its value. I. found out the reason later, Each bidder had been told 'confidentially' that the bureau was genuine Queen Anne and not a reproduc- tion. My client did well out of that!". Humour is found at auctions, too, "I remember putting up a cage of tame rats," said one auctioneer, "A man accidentally DYED FOR ART — Here's Dora. thy Malone, back in Hollywood after six years' absence — a blonde this time. Dorothy's career as a brunette skidded to a halt, but the same girl, this time with golden tresses, has won naughty girls parts in "Bat- tle Cry," and "Written on the Wind." She has been nominat- ed for an Oscar as the year's best supporting actress for the latter film. Dorothy seems to have proved her contention that Hollywood prefers blondes, opened the door, The rats sprang out — and there was pandemon- ium. Men were shouting and yelling, women shrieking and clambering on to chairs, .And a mongrel dog which had strolled in added to the din and the ex- citement!" Then there was the donkey which an auctioneer was putting under the hammer, "My man started to walk it up and down to show its points," he told me ruefully. "Then ' suddenly the animal gave him a sharp nip on the arm. With a curse he drop- ped the head -rope — and the donkey went berserk. He charg- e dthrough the crowd, scattered bidders in all directions, They caught him later. But I flatly ze- fused to have him in my sale again." Rather different was the story of a rabbit. When the fortunate purchaser came to take the ant - mal away he found there were seven more rabbits in the hutch! Not a bad bargain. But there have been others 'far better. In Ipswich three houses went for £25. Then there's the case of Mrs, Hodges, of Worcester, She went to an auction, saw a piano, bit a shilling — and got it! "Thla is. an all-time low," commented the auctioneer sadly. Week's Sew Thrifty . • �nOtu • • . • • • • - tl • • • • • • • • .

The work displays a bush of female hands rising from snaky roots. They Use Snow Instead of ice We raced down the juniper slopes on the north side of the Marble Mountain . , For the , moderately active visitor to the mountain there are few more wonderful things than the wealth of flowers in summer , Bummer on the Ulu Dag is also the season of the snow -cut- ters. And if there is any sound which has for me the magic Ikquality on the mountains, it is e distant tinkle of bells in the sight, sounding far down in the forest below the Refuge, As the , bells come nearer, the 'watcher will see, if he •goes to a window, a line of donkeys and mules coming slowly up the road. A faint dust rises from their hooves and shows up in the scintillant light of the moon. The spruces line the way like frozen statues, and their shadows lie blue on the granity path. Now the caravan is passing the Refuge, The bells sound strongly as the two drivers on the leading mules ride past. Be- hind them the tethered donkeys follow. And now the tinkle of bells lessens, until once again It falls faintly on the ear and finally vanishes into the night, The snow -cutters ride on for another- hour, then mount the screes to the snow -pit in the hollow under Zirve cliffs. There they unstring their axes and start their labour, Cubes of hard neve snow are cut and stored in panniers lined with felt and cov- ered with spruce boughs, Each animal is loaded with a pannier en both sides, and before the eastern skies have reddened with dawn the caravan is once *gain in movement on the journey ,seven thousand feet downwards to Bursa, The snow -cutters Ieave the frozen silence of the snow -pit, and within five hours are sweat- ing in the 90° shade heat of the town. It must be a hard life, de- manding fortitude and immense stamina, both of which the An- atolian peasant possesses in abundance. The snow Is sold in Bursa for the equivalent of per- haps a penny a pound, and en- ters the ice -boxes of the town. to cool the butter and fruit of the population. The profession of snow -cutter is an ancient and even honoured calling. It is also the appanage of a few, families only..I am told that the snow -cutters in some eases still possess 'Firmans," or royal letters of appointment from the Sultanate, dating back u far as the reign of Suleiman the Magnificent. The profession of snow -cutting in Bursa was for centuries restricted by edict to these families, and passed down from father to son. Even in ancient times the' Sul- tan's snow was quarried from the same snow -pit as the cut- ters use today, and probably car- ried on the backs of the ances- ters of the same donkeys. Once in Bursa a special runner ser- vice of fleet horses bore the snow to the port of Mudanya, And from Mudanya fast sailing vessels, whom no one had tho power to delay under the pain of the imperial displeasure car- ried the precious and perishable cargo to the walls of the Seraglio in Constantinople, It is curious to reflect that the sherbets which .the Sultan em ployed to slake his imperial thirst were•cooled with snow from , the' BIthynlan Olympus that. had. probably taken three days to accomplish its journey. -From "The Mountains of My Life," by Ashenden, "I say, old man, what hap- pened to that parrot of yours?" asked one neighbour of another. "Oh, I married, you know, and after a few weeks it just died," was the 'reply. "Jealousy,I suppose!" "Not 'really, it couldn't stand the competition." 0 FIVE THOUSAND TIMES FIRST—Jockey Johnny Longden, astride "Bente,'' returns from the finish line at the Santa Anita race track in California recently, after riding his 5,000th winner, the most in history. The 47 -year-old jockey' achieved 'the mark after riding in more than 25,000 races over a 30 -year span. He has won over 16 million dollars in purses, Accounting for his ''Mr. Moneybags" nickname. When It Was Really Cold In Britain Moustaches froze stiff, three- inch Icicles hung from horses' noses, trees wero split by the frost • , . Those were the sort of things that happened during a typical cold spell in bygone cen- turies, In December, 1813, the Thames began to freeze so solidly that a fair was held on it with all sorts of amusement booths, skit- tle alleys, music, dancing, eat- ing, drinking, roystering, even a sheep or ox roasted whole on the ice and sold at a bob a slice. But when a sudden thaw set in everyone "had to scamper off the icy mush; some traders got off with their goods, others bar- ely ' got off with their lives, Tents, booths, roundabouts went slithering downstream, to pile up on ice -floes at the bridge piers, One temporary pub that had been set up slid away with nine men Inside yelling their heads off when it caught fire, As it crashed into Blackfriars Bridge they managed to scramble out over the polar hummocks, but think of all that good, strong beer going to a watery grave. That wasn't the only frost fair on the Thames, by any means, John Evelyn, the seventeenth century diarist, actually saw bull baiting, puppet shows, horse and'coadll races on the ice, and coaches plying on it between, Westminster and the Temple. Furthermore, the intense cold brought down a dense fog which choked everyone, froze the water supply, put the brew- ers and other tradesmen out of work, and caused many acci- dents. The countryside was blasted by the frozen fog. Men, cattle, deer, poultry, wild birds and even fish perished. Trees split and crashed, as if from lightning. The coasts were so arctic that ships couldn't move in or out of harbour and supplies were paralysed. Fuel was at famine prices. Funds had to be started for the poor to keep body and soul together. Another chronicler records a most unedifying spectacle one winter when football was play- ed on the Thames and courtiers came out to shoot at targets set up on ,the. ice, All ,the spivs, loafers and unemployables set out to cash in on a charity rac- ket. Donning aprons, clutching old spades, hoisting a turnip on top of a pole or rake as distress sig- nal, they paraded the streets shouting mournfully, "All frozen out!' We be frozen -out garden- ers) We've got no work to do!" In this way they often made double a skilled workman's wage. It was a sad day for them when the sun shone again and the ice began to melt!

Maybe she likes the color combination. 4 caused floods and havoc, sweep- ing away homes and bridges, and drowning people. A coach bowling over the snow looks romantic on an old- time Christmas card, but it must have been an ordeal, when win- ter travel had to be done over roads like quagmires, and pas- sengers had to muffle themselves in heavy great -coats, shawls and comforters against . bitter cold and blinding blizzards. On the jaunt from .London to. Dingley Dell, Dickens tells us the travellers had to fortify themselves with hefty draughts of ale and brandy to defy the frost, and at one stop Mr. Pick, wick's fingers were so numb that it took him five minutes to find the sixpence to pay for the li- quor, Until the 1830s there were no buses for winter shopping and visiting within the city, and when they did arrive they were crude, uncomfortable vehicles with conductors noted for their insolent behaviour.

Un- fortunately few of us are lucky enough to find that right at the door. But so long as we have not solid rock it is amazing what we can do, The best medi- cine for any soil, light or heavy, is a liberal application of old fashioned barnyard manure. But manure is hard to come by in these modern days and it is lia- ble to be filled with weed seeds. And so most of us will have to turn to something else. Fortun- ately there are many substitutes, commercial or chemical ferti- lizer, special soil conditioners, sand where the soil is heavy clay, lime where it is sour, and humus anywhere. The latter we can make ourselves. It is simply rotted down vegetable refuse, like leaves, grass clippings, weeds and even clean garbage. This can be dug directly into the soil or piled in a corner, covered with layers of earth, watered occasionally and allow- ed to rot and then dug in. Keep It Informal' For most garden layouts the informal lines are best. This suits the relatively small space at the disposal of most Canadian home owners and it tends to make the average garden more .interesting. The general plan is to have a lawn in the centre and foreground with the shrubbery and flowers arranged in irregu- lar clumps all along the sides and at the back. This is where the height of mature plants and time and col- our of bloom is important. We don't want small things like alyssum, portulaca, dwarf zin- nias and marigolds hidden by bigger, taller plants and we 'don't want all the bloom com- ing on at one time. The seed catalogue lists all these points and also tells us about the colour and whether the varieties are hardy or tender. With this pre- cise knowledge we can plan a pleasing and practical layout, have our fences and walks screened but not our windows, and also have something in bloom from early spring until late in the fall. We will also know what we can safely plant outdoors even while there is some risk of frost and what we cannot plant safely until all danger of cold weather is over. In these catalogues, too, are listed flowers for special places, slopes, dark shaded corners, and things that even prefer poor soil or rocky footholds or wet feet. No matter how unfavourable we may think the location; there is something listed in the cata- logue that will grow. They Are Friends Most birds and certainly all song birds are good friends of the gardener. They will help keep down bugs and eat weed seeds, and they, are beautiful and interesting to have around. Shrubs and trees, bird houses, feeding stations and' watering or bathing pools, all will help to bring wrens and orioles and robins. But we can do more than this. There are certain bright flowers that have a special ap- peal for humming birds. There are all sorts of ' shrubs with bright and edible fruit or seeds that will invite cardinals. It pays well to study the special likes of the birds, to plant things that will produce food and shel- ter in winter as well as in sum- mer. "You pay a small deposit," said the door-to-door salesman to a prospective customer, "and make no more payments for six months." "Who's been telling you about us?" asked the housewife, sharp- ly.

The dancing in "Oklahoma!" — now showing in various parts of the country — makes screen history. Not only is it a joy to watch, but it was all filmed on outdoor location, or, as producer Arthur Hornblow, Jr., puts it, "right in the field." The "Kansas City" dance se- quence, one of the most effective and unusual in the whole picture, was shot on location at Elgin, where the company had recon- structed on a branch line of the Southern Pacific railway the "Claremore, Oklahoma" station of 1006. In reality, Elgin is a tiny whistlestop between Patagonia and Fairbanks and trains pass it twice a week. On the mornings when the real train was due, di- rector Fred Zinnermann had his old-time "ghost" train cleared from the track to let the express through. In the Kansas City dance Gene Nelson, partnered by Charlotte Greenwood and with a troupe of twenty-four ballet dancers and cowboys, performs a spectacular routine which includes jumping through a lariat, leaping aboard_ a moving train, climbing up its side, prancing about on the top of the roof and finally hopping 'off on to a galloping horse — ail in rhythm! The dances, created by Agnes de Mille, niece of the famouse director, Cecil B. de Mille, prov- ed the most formidable she had ever tackled. The method used was for her to create the rou- tines, after which director Zinne- mann worked out the most rff'ec- tive way of presenting them. "Treating them," she says ap- preciatively, "with a care they never had before." The dances that were so popu- lar on the stage have not been transferred bodily to the screen. She deliberately changed them, believing that audiences who had seen the stage show would want to see something different in the film version, Besides, she ex- plains, "dances that look good on the stage don't necessarily come off as well on the screen." When you revel in the familiar tunes and the glorious outdoor scenery, spare a thought for one very important man who had to grow that corn as "high as an elephant's eye" — and have it ready on the date required by the shooting schedule. He was Louis D. Gerlack of Tucson, Arizona. He started his film cornfield in March, four months before shooting. First the field was ploughed to a depth of 21/2 feet SAtLY'S SAWES "Maybe you liked your mother's cooking better because It didn't cost you anything." • and harrowed, It was terraced and the seed planted in Aprll- 2,100 stalks in fourteen rowS, the rows far enoukh apart so that, when it was fully -grown, Curly could ride through on horseback singing "Oh, what a Beautiful Mornin'," Ammonium nitrate and other preparations were used and each plant was hand -watered through the growing season. As a safe- guard, Gerlack planted a second cornfield and when, some plants didn't keep up with the rest, he brought some in from his emer- gency supply. Anyhow, all that care paid off. On the appointed date the corn was "as high as an elephant's eye" — thirteen feet! Hankies Once A Luxury item no The elegant handkerchief as a decorative item, has all but dis- appeared. Today, we prefer the plain white disposable variety — hygienic but hardly a thing of beauty. In the days of lace and silk hankies, it was fashionable to carry them for all to admire, Back in the 14th century the hanky was actually as precious as a jewel. King Henry the Fourth of France possessed only two because of the enormous cost of the rich materials and elaborate lace. Hardly useful objects since most of them were not washable. But never- theless, among the elite, they were very popular adornments for ceremonial occasions. Although these "show" pieces were made of finest linens and silks it isn't likely that they could compare to today's variety for gleaming whiteness. Before the introduction of chemical bleaches, cloth was sunbleached or boiled in water but the pro- duct was by no means white. The development of about 2,000 synthetic dyestuffs . and improvement in the printing process has resulted in an in- finite variety of color for print- ed handkerchiefs unknown in the days of the luxury hanky. But the sophisticated role of the hanky was only temporary. Towards the end of the 17th century It was doomed to a life of usefulness. At this time snuff - taking was popular, Snuff -takers simply had to use their hankies to keep .from staining their clothes. In fact, it was this hab- it that led to the printed kind for they didn't show the stains as much as the white ones. The 17th century hanky was used also as a charm against disease.. It was believed that you could get rid of a cold by tying a coin into one's hanky and, throwing it away. The un- lucky person was was foolish enough to pick up the cast-off hanky picked up the cold with it — so it was believed, and he probably did, too. Somewhat the same idea we have today -- "don't put a cold in your pocket". And to carry it out, chemistry has provided us with disposable cellu-cotton tis- sues that are thrown away after use. Handkerchiefs have seen a few changes since the days they ranked with jewels. But ele- gant or useful, they are not for- gotten. For seldom would you find a woman's purse or a man's pocket without a hanky ready for that unexpected sneeze, FASHION HINT YA'i'N{% ,.� �•aicrpy�-armaN .Hr. v'"a"/ • • DRAW A BEAD ON THiS-Screen star Kim Novak, playing the name role in "The Jeanne Eagels Story," ran into costume trouble when she did a dance number wearing the outfit seen: above.

WANTED JAIL BUT HOPE DEFERRED A man in Wanne-Eickel, Ger- many, stole a water meter and then reported the theft himself. He told the police that he had eight children and had commit- ted the crime to go to prison for a short spell to "get some peace and quiet." The judge, however, took an- other view, "Four months' Im- prisonment," he said, "but in view of this man's responsibility to his large family the sentence will be suspended." Smoking' Made Emperor Lice. Asked to explain' fitdctly why people smoke, a psychologist said: 'Tobacco is a compensa- tion for the emotional suppres- sion and the constant conflicts ' that our highly intricate and more or less unnatural mode of modern living involve. The man who blows clouds of smoke fre- gently ' symbolizes the blowing away of trouble." Queen Victoria would certainly not have agreed with him, She hated smoking so much that if her guests wished to smoke they had to do it up the chimneys of the fireplaces in the palace bed- rooms, "Smoking out of doors in cold, frosty weather tends to crack the lips,",says a doctor. "Never trail, a cigarette from the upper Hp; It may harm it" Napoleon I found it impos- sible to smoke a pipe, When the Persian ambassador gave him a valuable one,Napoleon ordered his valet to fll and light it. But directly he had begun to smoke it, he gasped and cried: "Take it away! It's choking me!" First Europeans to see smok- ing were 'two sailors put ashore in Cuba by Columbus. in 1492. They reported that the natives carried lighted firebrands and puffed smoke through their mouths and noses, presumably to perfume themselves, A member of the Australian House of Representatives said recently that all motorists should be barred from smoking while driving "because fumbling for matches or flicking a lighter sev- eral times could distract a dri- ver's attention for up to twelve seconds." Author R. L. Stevenson once declared that if his doctor told him cigarettes would be the death of him he would still puff on in the certainty that nothing could bring a more pleasant en than tobacco.

Woman Hit By A Flying Cow 'Several folk living in Brfd Axe, Michigan, say they have sighted f• lying saucers. But recently one resident In this tiny commu- nity, 62 -year-old Mrs. Janet Whittaker, encountered a flying cow! Setting off on a shopping ex- pedition, she heard a sudden thud as she came round 'a bend and the next instant a huge cow de- scended on her, Petrified, she had no chance of side-stepping and the cow, hit by a car, crashed full tilt into her knees. But luckily she sustained only slight injuries, No bones were broken, , Traffic accidents involving ani- mals often take strange turns. In this country, according to the Royal Society for the Preven- tion of Accidents' report, per- sonal injury accidents caused by dogs average 2,600 a year. And as the Highway Code warns "the presence of dogs and other ani- mals in the carriageway contri- butes towards the 4,000 personal injury accidents a year." This is in Great Britain alone. Pet owners should be more alert and careful. And motorists should know more about animal reactions when caught in the traffic. Chickens nervously fol- low a single instinct when sur- prised by a car: they dash straight for home. Horses and ponies, which seem quiet, may be thoroughly startled if ap- proached too close and they may swing without warning straight into a car's path. Cows, being sluggish -minded, often behave very stupidly. And a solitary sheep, Ieft stranded - on one side of the road, with the flock on the other, merits extra cauion, For, seeing a mechanical monster appr^a^hing, the animal may panic and scamper across the road to rejoin its companions, When, in April last year, the Queen attended the West Nor- folk Hunt's point-to-point meet- ing at Sporle, two races ended with a riderless horse galloping• out of the main gate and career- ing wildly along the main Swaff- ham road, In the first instance, two R.S.P.C.A, inspecotrs gave chase • in their van, But P.C. Thomas Bokeham raced ahead of them on his motor -cycle. Very skil- fully, he managed to catch the hunter by the reins with one hand, while with the other, he steered his machine. He then rode alongside the runaway, talking soothingly to it all the time, until the horse calmed down and trotted to a standstill., Half an hour later, when another riderless racehorse • bolted, P.C. Bokeham again gave chase and, using the same tech- nique, made a second capture, •. without injury to himself' or to the horse. It was bad luck for a York- shire milkman of Wibsey, near Bradford, when his ten -year-old ODD EGG - The hen that laid this egg apparently grew tired of her anonymous contributions to humanity'. So here it is, com- plete with monogram. mare suddenly bolted, She raced off the main road, the milk cart swaying crazily behind her, and charged down a narrow lane. The cart . overturned, bottles smashed and milk .whitened the wreckage. The horse, now free, cleared a four -foot -high stone wall and fell ,six feet into a cel- lar entrance. There she was wedged, with her left hind leg trapped and in danger of being broken. Arrivingly quickly on the scene, policemen, firemen and an R,S.P.C,A, inspector placed rub- ber fire hoses beneath her and lifted her forward into a more natural position to ease the strain on her back leg. Then, using a special lifting , apparatus, they' raised her bodily from the cellar entrance into which she had plunged. The entire rescue op- eration lasted an hour and twen- ty minutes. The horse was saved from injuries which might easily have necessitated its being de- stroyed. But the residents were not at all happy 'at seeing their breakfast milk splashed all over the road, Drives Eight Miles With Eyes Shut What's happening to the wink - the deliberate wink which was once so frequently exchang- ed between young men and women? It is losing popularity all over Europe, declares a French expert on courtship and marriage, "Many a love affair used to begin with a wink, but you rare- ly see a man wink at a girl nowa- days," he says, "As for a girl winking at a man -- this just isn't done any more, not even in France! But in the 'twenties of this century such winks be- tween the sexes were very popular." Perhaps he's right, When did you last wink deliberately at an- other person, or see a wink ex- changed between a young couple? Lots of schoolboys still wink in play, but even this type of wink- ing is much less often seen than it was a quarter of a century ago. Involuntary winking, or blink- ing, is 'as universal as ever. Ever tried to see how long you could go without winking? You'II find it very difficult to carry on for more than a minute or two, and very uncomfortable. Yet Miss Maryan Curtis, a lovely U.S. brunette, won a bet of nearly $1000 for -- as the judges put it - "maintaining a fixed stare for, twenty-four hours without moving an eyelid;' To scientists a wink is an op- eration of the eye which requires one-fifth of a second and occurs twenty-five times a minute, Therefore, • 11 you drive at an average of 20 m.p.h, for live hours, you will drive eight and a third miles with your eyes shut! This winking business, you see, is necessary. It's Nature's way of keeping your eye -balls clean, moist and comfortable. Some people wink more often than others, A nervous person winks most. It is calculated that his eyelids travel' about 25,000 inches a day. Women tend to blink less than men. It's considered wicked to wink deliverately in Falco, Alabama. If a woman's rapid winking is mistaken for saucy winking, she can - under a local by-law - be arrested and fined, OPERATION WHISTLE During an operation to remove six-year-old David Anderson's tonsils, the surgeon found a small, plastic whistle lodged be- hind one of the boy's tonsils. Questioning the boy's mother later, the surgeon learned that David had swallowed the whistle ,some months previous but it gave him no bother. "He did snore with a peculiar sound, though," she added.

FAIM FONT killamssell. Cooking quality of potatoes de- pends to a large extent on their degree of meanliness when cook- ed. The food value of the potato depends on its dry matter con- tent,, and many of the qualities of 'texture - Or meanness - and taste depend on the percentage composition of the principal com- ponents such as water, starch, protein, mineral and cellulose. • • * Over the past quarter-century research workers have devoted much time and a great deal of effort in trying to develop a prac- tical method •for determining the cooking quality of potatoes, on a commercial basis, Of the m any methods experimented with, the most practical has proved to be the specific gravity method. By specific gravity po- tatoes can be separated into classes based on the total solids content of individual or com- posite samples of tubers. The results of thousands of tests has shown that there is a very close correlation between the specific gravity or 'total solids' content of potatoes and their cooking quality, reports N. M. Parks, potato specialist, Canada Depart- ment of Agriculture. • • * Specify gravity is defined as, "The relative weight of a given volume of any kind of matter as compared with the weight of an equal volume of a standard sub- stance, as water or air'. Hence the specific gravity of potato. tubers can be determined either by (1) the flotation of individual tubers in a solution of known density, or by (2) weighing them in air and then under water and dividing the weight iri air by the loss of weight in water, • • • If lots of potatoes with defin- ite dry matter content are desir- ed, then the specific gravity of individual tubers must be deter- mined. However, potatoes can be separated into classes with a range of percentage dry matter content and their cooking qual- ity predetermined by making specific gravity determinations on composite samples of any 1/4 given lot of tubers. • • • • An instrument designed • for this purpose and known as a 'potato hydrometer' was devel- oped in 1936. This instrument is so designed that the specific grav- ity - per cent total solids - and per cent starch of any composite sample of potatoes can be read directly from the stem of the hydrometer. In using the potato hydro- meter the following points must be observed; (1) The composite sample of potatoes being used to make a determination must be clean and free of all soil partl- cles;(2) A ten pound sample of potatoes must be weighed ac- curately; (3) The temperature of the water in which the basket of potatoes is suspended must be held at a constant tempera- ture of 60 degrees F. The following gives the sug- gested quality of potatoes fall- ing within certain percentage range of dry matter as deter- mined by specific gravity: Below 15 per cent dry matter - Poor Quality; 15.1-18 per cent dry matter - Fair Quality; 18.1-21 per cent dry matter - Good Quality; 21,1 up per cent dry matter -- Excellent Quality. * * * Improved flock management is rapidly reflected in increased profits. Such factors as feed wastage, culling, labour, balanced rations and egg marketing, must be considered in a well managed poultry program. * • • As feed comprises approxi. mately 65 per cent of the cost of egg production this is the logical place to reduce expenses. Howeverthis should not be done by limiting total feed consump- tion. A surprising amount of feed is wasted each day due to carelessness on the part of the operator and improper construc- tion and location of feed troughs. By careful planning, practically all of these loses can be limited. • • * Culling is also important in the cost of egg production as It costs about 30 cents per month to feed a non -layer. Pullets should be culled when put in the laying pens so that only strong, vigorous, well -matured. birds are kept. It a pullet Is not laying by six months, chances are she will never be a high producer, • • * Egg flavour and grades are often adversely affected through excessive amounts of green feed. For this reason hens should not be allowed to, forage for suffi- cient feed but rather should re- ceive complete rations. This will ensure desirable egg flavour, uniform yolk colour, upstanding yolks and clean, white, strong shells. Frequent egg gathetiing and early marketing regardless of storage facilities on the farm is desirable, as quality deterior- ates rapidly even under the most favourable conditions. Operating costs could be re- duced still further by conserving labour through the use of prop- erly, constructed poultry houses and good organization. , "One good thing about the ris- ing cost of living," said Mrs. Stern to her husband, "is the fact that I've lost fifteen pounds worrying about it." FiftyTwo Years To Deliver Letter A tailor in Graz, Austria, re- cently received from his mother a letter which she had posted in Vienna, less than fifty miles away, in November, 1904. What happened to it during that fifty- two years remains a mystery which is still puzzling them both Postal services in Europe to- day are as near perfect as in- genuity can make them and such instances of delayed mail are rare. Letters have sometimes slipped unnoticed between floor- boards and remained undiscov- ered for years, but very few go astray nowadays. Thirteen letters posted be- tween 1915 and 1917 were not delivered to addresses in the West of England until 1934, but there was a good reason, They were discovered behind the sorting racks of a post office railway van when it was being repaired, A letter from the Post- master -General, apologizing for the delay, was sent to each of the addresses. During the siege of Paris by the Germans in 1870, postal of- flcialsv hit upon the idea of en- closing letters in small zinc globes, water -tight and herme- tically sealed, and dropping them into the River Seine, They floated down to the French lines, where a net stretched across the river gath- ered them in and they were sent on their way. When the Germans discovered what was going on, they stretch- ed across the river a net of their own and caught the floating mail. Thirty years later, In 1900, when the zinc balls and their use were almost forgotten, a fish- erman found one in the Seine. Inside were 300 letters dated 1870, "Jenkins," hundrede the em- ployer, "why do you keep look- ing at the clock?" "Well, sir," replied the em- ployee, "I keep worrying whe- ther I'm behind on the two men's work that I do." s Upsidedown to Prevent Peeking 000 ©uric ©u©© ©©0 000©©LJI JE E7 013001000000o©o MEOW 0u111 000 0©0 ©O BOO BOO d0000 ©0o0 1900 000© ©0000 0E0 BOO MOO MOO MOO ©©© 00000 o©o©o©UM00000 E©©©©©il©© 000 CEDE 0003 COO 0 U}4L%Y SCIIOOL LESSON By Rev. R. Barclay Warren B.A., B.D. The Last Judgment Matthew 25:31.46 Memory Selection; And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto 'y'ou, Inasmuch as ye have done 11 unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done It unto me. Matthew 25;40. The parables dealing with Divine Judgment emphasize God's condemnation on people not so much for what they did as for what they failed to do. The foolish virgins did not take an adequate supply of oil; the servant did not use his t a 1 en t; those put on the left hand did not care for the hungry, thirsty, stranger, naked, sick or imprisoned. We incline to think of wickedness in terms of the evil things which people do. Jesus focuses our attention on the sinfulness of those who fail to do good things. Men do not so readily detect the sins of omission. We are not saved by works; we are saved by faith. But James wrote: "Faith without works is dead." A man's faith is manifest by his works. Per- haps we cannot do much toward feeding the hungry and cloth- ing the naked. But surely we can visit the sick. I have called on the sick of all creeds. Not once have I been treated un- kindly, The sick appreciate visi- tors provided they ate cheerful and helpful and do not stay too long. I called to see a man held on a murder charge. He didn't have to consent to see me. We had never met. We talk- ed, alked, read the Scriptures and • prayed. Developments since have demonstrated his apprecia- tion. Let us remember our Christian responsibility to those In trouble. Is there really a judgment af- ter life? Jesus uses strong Ian. guage. "Cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness, there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth." "Depart from me, ye cursed, into' ever- lasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels.', We are prone to pass over such pass- ages. Well, who are we to al- ter what God has decreed? Out part is to repent of our s believe in Jesus Christ sari bring forth fruit unto life *We nal.
