"Dear Anne Hirst:
Is 38 too old to try to find
happiness again? My divorce
was granted over a year ago. I
have only one child who is de-
pendent on me, the others mar-
ried young and are happily on
their . own.
"My husband gave me such a
raw deal that I believed there
were no good men left—
"But now I think I have found
one. I know I could love him,
Ile says he has been searching
for years for a woman like myself
and I think he will soon pro-
pose. We are thoroughly com-
patible, and I believe we can
help each other to find a more
complete life together. I don't
go around much, I just work and
try to make a home for my young
son. He, by the way, thinks my
friend is tops.
"My other children know him,
Of course, and feel es though he
were already a member of the
family. Do you think people
would call me foolish at my age
to accept him?
'Once while I was married you
answered my appeal for guid-
ance, and gave me the courage I
heeded. May I have your opinion
ow? WONDERING"
ACCEPT GRATEFULLY
• Where on earth did you get
• the idea that the 30's are too
• for marriage? Some of the

"I WAS A FOOL!"
"Dear Anne Hirst:
I hope no other man makes the
stupid mistake I made; he might
not be so lucky as to get the
second chance I got,..
"When I married a girl of a
different faith, the ceremony was
performed in her church, and our
children were all baptized there;
I even attended services with her
occasionally. But after awhile
people jibed at me and poisoned
my mind; I began to argue with
her, and would not give ear to
her reasoning. I got both of us in
a desperate state ... She left me.
"God must have given her
special grace, for she has finally
listened to my pleas and we are
back together. We all attend her
church regularly, and once again
I am alive. I realized what a fool
I was to let those interfering
people influence me. But I feel
I can never make up for all the
heartache I caused her.
ANOTHER FOOL"
"What will people say?" some-
times is a safeguard against has-
ty action. Yet when it comes to
marriage, It is one's heart and
wisdom that supplies the an-
swer. When any vital decision
confronts you, ask Anne Hirst's
opinion; it will be honest and
helpful. Address her at Box 1,
123 Eighteenth St., New Toron-
to, Ontario.
Best Dressed
Again, for the fifth year in a
row, Mrs. William Paley, New
York matron, has been dubbed
"best dressed" by a group of
self-appointed judges. And again
we are forced to file a demurrer,
principally because the term
"best dressed" is too indefinite.
Best dressed for what? For cook-
ing a turkey, changing a baby's
diaper, waiting on table, selling
dry goods? What is best -dressed
for, let us say, sitting up at night
with a sick baby is not best
dressed for eating at Toots Shor's
or Sherman Billingsley's place.
And vice versa, of course.
We have long labored to put
some sense into these best -dress-
ed contests by having them di-
vided into categories, the least of
which would be.the purely orna-
mental. One category might be
"Best dressed on 40 bucks a
week." Or another, "Best dress-
ed with the stingiest husband."
Or even: "Best dressed in your
local supermarket."
When you come right down
to it, all these things are sub-
jective. Probably William Paley
agrees with the decision, but who
else does? We don't, for the
simple reason we have our own
choices and can back them up
with as much stuff as the people
who picked Mrs. Paley.

GRIEVANCE HAD AN AIRING
Probably the most perturbed
group of people in the world
were Toronto parents who re-
cently, convened a meeting to
discuss the disciplining of chil-
dren.
When the meeting was over
the parents discovered that the
air had been let out of some
twenty-four cars. The culprits:

him by a pretty garlanded miss in Rome 20 centuries after
his death.

HRONICLES
Gi1NGERPARM
One day, years and years ago,
we .had a little grey kitten. We
hadn't an idea what to call it
but, since we got it the day of
a certain provincial election we
said we would call it after who-
ever was announced as the win-
ning candidate. And so our kit-
ty -cat went to bed that night
with the name of "Mitchie". It
was a nicer name than "George"
any way, And Mitchie was still
with us long after Mitchell Hep-
burn had gone back to growing
onions.
Last night, I would have you
know, was the wind-up of the
1958 Liberal Convention, when,
as you are aware, Lester B.
Pearson was chosen as the new
Party leader. Just after the tele-
vised programme had started
and we were waiting anxiously
to hear the choice of the party,
Ditto, our little tortoiseshell cat
decided she wanted to go out.
Without any misgiving I opened
the front door and away she
went, After the TV session was
over I remembered Ditto and
went to call her. But Ditto had
vanished and we haven't seen
a sign of her since. Never before
had she been away for more
than an hour at a time. So, in
the future, whenever we think
of the Liberal Convention we
shall remember it as the night
our little kitty -cat went away.
Her name couldn't have had
any significance anyway because
we can't imagine the new leader
ever being called "Ditto"—much
as we admire him. So there it is
—next time we have a cat we'll
make sure it doesn't get mixed
up with politics, that way we
may keep it around a bit long-
er. Or shall we take Ditto as an
omen of what the future holds
in store? Shall we say that if
Ditto comes back Pearson may
be assured of victory—or that
if we never see her again he is
doomed to defeat?
This morning I drove here
and there along the roads and
onto the highway but never a
sign of a cat could I see, either
alive or dead. If we only knew
what happened to her it would
not be so bad. I can only hope,
since she was such a friendly
little thing, that someone may
have taken a fancy to her and
taken her in. Or it could be she
had a date with a boy friend.
Anything—just so long as she
wasn't run over and killed.
That is one disadvantage of
living in a built-up area—do-
mestic pets, either cats or dogs,
are liable to have a short life.
That is what our neighbours
tell us anyway. Across the road
there have been three dogs and
two kittens since we came here,
Next door the people are trying.,
to raise a kitten for the third
time. Another family gave up
and settled for goldfish and yet
another has two little Budgie
birds. Neither birds nor fish ap-
peal to me too much as pets but
a puppy or a kitten I can nevjr
resist. It seems so quiet today
without Ditto racing through
the house, running off with my
knitting wool or chasing a paper
ball. However, I am still hoping
she will come back—hoping but
not expecting. In any case we
may be disappointed—consider-
ing the political implications.
On . the farm when Mitchie
was missing we might find him
up a tall tree, or on top of the
roof from which he was afraid
to come down. True to his name
he was always getting into dif-
ficulties. One time Partner found
him stranded on the cross -beam
that held the hayfork track.
Somehow or other Partner man-
aged to rescue Mitchie—follish-
ly perhaps—he might have land-
ed on the barn floor. And then
I would ha* had a cat and
maybe lost a husband. But we
all do foolish things if it means
saying a life—animal or human.
Well, there seems to be stormy
weather right across Canada but
we have yet to have our first
snowfall — although it looks
threatening right now. However
at the moment there is only a
slight dusting of snow on the
roads. Maybe I shall know in a
day or two what snow really
looks like as I am expecting to
make a trip to Peterborough to
help Klemi sort out things so
he knows what to put in stor-
age. J or a time he will be get-
ting a room with friends. I may
get a car ride up on Sunday or
I may go on the "Day -Liner"
early in the week, That Day -
Liner is really wonderful—To-
ronto to Peterborough in an
hour and twenty minutes, That's
what I call trav^.fling in com-
fort. Last trip I took my knit-
ting with me and had time to do
only two inches of ribbing on
the sock I was making, Partly,
perhaps, because I was too busy
watching the scenery. From
what I could ' see there was
plenty of reforestation but very
little ordinary farming, due, no
doubt, to the hills and hollows.
I did notice one farm in particu-
lar where hilly fields had been
ploughed. The need for contour
ploughing was obvious. But no,
the hills had been ploughed up
and down as usual. It made me
dizzy to even imagine a man on
a tractor going down that awful
slope. And just think of all that
has been written and demon-
strated in favour of contour
ploughing. There must ' two
classes of farmers — stubborn
and .progressive:
• EN'IOUS
An Indian in New Mexico was
smoke -signalling love messages
to his Indian girl friend a few
miles away. Suddenly an atom
bomb test was made covering the
the sky with smoke for several
miles.
"Gee!" exclaimed the Indian,
"I wish' I'd said that."

Alarming
With the arrival of the darker
mornings, more and more alarm
clocks are used, especially in
France where they have always
been more popular than in any
other European country,
One Frenchman who was a
notorious late -riser can always
rise promptly nowadays because
- he has invented his own novel
alarm clock,
When its. bell rings a light
flashes on and the bedclothes are
whirled off. Another home-made
alarm clock lights a spirit lamp
to boil the water in a kettle,
pours out a cup of tea and ex-
tinguishes the flames as the ket-
tle tilts.
When a Frenchwoman was ar-
rested by a shop detective and
charged with stealing some
jewellery, she denied the theft
indignantly but — unluckily for
her an alarm clock which she
had stolen with the jewellery
suddenly sounded.
She was searched. Three tiny
alarm clocks and the jewellery'
were found in a„specially-made
pocket inside her capacious skirt.
Police in Yorkshire were baf,
fled some years back by the
activities of a specialist thief
who broke into houses and stole
only alarm clocks, ignoring more
valuable loot. One of the stolen
clocks played the American an-
them, "The Star-Spangled Ban-
ner," after striking the hour. As
a result, every city policeman
spent hours while on duty listen-
ing for that tune, but heither
the thief nor the clocks were
ever traced.
Modern
Etiquette .. .
hr Roberta Lee
Q. Is there any rule as to who
should make the introductions
at an informal home gathering,
the host or the hostess?
A. No. Either may do this,

even if there are no women
employees present!
Q. I noticed at an airport re-
cently that the men boarding
the plane didn't allow the wo-
men to enter first, but took
their turns as they fell into line,
Was this proper?
A. In order to load a plane
most efficiently, and In the
hurry and bustle of travel, it

the women to go first:
Q. I have heard that post-
scripts to .letters are In poor
taste. Is this so?
A. There is nothing wrong
with postscripts, when neces-

Campanella --Man
Of Many Friends
It was a couple of fellows'
named Branch Rickey and Jackie
Robinson who opened the gates
for the Negro player in orgatl-
ized baseball,
But it was Roy Campanella,
the rotund catcher, as much as
anybody, who took the serious-
ness out of the Negro's place in
the national pastime and gave it
a smile.
In fact, in the beginning, even
Roy's critics had to smile, be-
cause, with that chunky build
of his, he looked far more like
a participant in a neighborhood
game between the married men
and single men than he did a
big leaguer.'
They wondered how that
roly-poly man could ever move
fast enough to keep the major
pace.
But he could, and did — well
enough to be the backbone of
Championship Dodger teams and
to win the most valuable player
award three times in the Na-
tional League—the same league
that had a Willie Mays, a Stan
Muslal and a few other greats
of this modern era.
"Campy" was big league in a
number of ways, but what his
pals remembered most about him
in the stories which came out
Immediately after his automo-
bile accident recently was his
wonderful sense of humour and
warm personality — his sincere
love for the game that has
meant so much to the Campan-
ella family.
Roy was one of the highest
paid Dodgers, yet he probably
thought less about thatside of
It than anyone else on the then
Brooklyn roster. He admitted,
and meant it, that he would have
played for nothing.
When Jackie Robinson quit
the game, they wrote stories
about his managerial possibil-
ities — the first Negro with the
potential to pilot a ball club
writes Rumill in The Christian
Science Monitor.
But those close to the Dodgers
:.telt-.that-it,,was a case of mis-
taken identity. While Robinson
might have made the grade,
teammates contended that Cam-
panella had a far better chance.
Actually, Roy had managed
for a short spell, at Nashua,
N.H., while he was playing there
and Walter Alston was the field
leader. Once when Alston was
ejected by an umpire, Roy took
over — to the surprise of no one
but himself.
However, he had the respect
of those Nashua mates, just as
he had in late years, in the
Dodger clubhouse—and through-
out the National League.
Campy was the friend of the
young ball player, the Pulman
porter and waiter, the clubhouse
boy, the boy who carried bats,
the men who had the unattrac-
tive jobs around the ball park.
No player was more willing to
give someone a hand — at any-
thing. And he was the busiest
fellow in spring training, coach-
ing young players and sitting
around at night talking baseball
with all who would listen.
Having knocked around in the
Negro leagues for years before
being brought to the majors, Roy
appreciated far more than most
what the luxuries of the big
time meant, He never abused
them, never took them for
granted,
Mechanically, Campanella was
a standout on the field. He could
handle pitchers. He could throw,
fie nad as much right-handed
power as any catcher in the his-
tory of the game,
They may have laughed the
first time they saw his round
figure in mask and protector,
but he quickly changed their
tunes with his alertness and
know-how, and that big bat.
There was nothing funny about
him when he was beating your
team, as he often did,
It will be some time before
they will know whether or not
Campy can return to baseball as
a player, But there should be
some place in the game for this
rnan,•' whose speedy recovery is
the wish of all who know him.
"TELL THEM TO BE CAREFUL"—Dean Bisbee tries to comfort his
son, Lynn, 16, as the youth receives emergency treatment at
Denver General Hospital after a home-made rocket exploded
and blew off part of the boy's right hand. "Just tell the other
kids to be more careful when they're working with explosives,"
the science student asked. Lynn's words of caution were
echoed by Maj. Gen. H. N. Toftoy, commanding general of
Redstone Arsenal, who issued a stiff warning urging amateur
rocketeers to use "extreme's caution in making homemade
rockets.
Beat Temptation
By A Nose
Is a crook';d nose liable to turn
a youth crooked? Recent re-
search indicates that in certain
cases this may be so.
Many juvenile delinquents
who have had such physical af-
flictions corrected during their
term in reform institutions are
making good on release at a rate
of thirty-three per cent, better
than 'youths who had not re-
ceived attention, says Dr, D. At
Ogden, medical officer to Port-
land Borstal Institution a n d
Verne Prison.
Dr. Ogden says that parental
negelct can mean not only moral
neglect but neglect of physical
1)andicaps, such as squinting,
crooked noses, limps, ugly scars,
badly healed fractures and other
complaints.
Such disabilities usually cause
embarrassment to youths who
try to cover their very natural
resentment with an "over -com-
pensatory aggression."
Of youths who had deformities
of the nose corrected, only one
in eight had been reconvicted
after two years.
"In one stroke a source of
chronic physical discomfort and
emotional embarrassment h a s
been removed," says Dr. Ogden
in his report.
.Time To Fly
Turk's was a farmyard -built
airplane. In those days you
bought blueprints for airplanes
the way you buy blueprints for
barbecues today, .
Our first wings were covered
with a heavy balloon cloth. They
had such an exaggerated curve
that they clutched onto the air
like a hand holding onto a !cliff,
rather than split it, like a wing
of modern design, They were
called clutch -grip• wings. The
little four -cylinder engine with
a toothpick propellor had a
rough time hauling so much air-
plane. When they worked at all,
they landed sd slowly you could
almost step off and run along
beside them, But weight and ig-
norance usually ' either kept
them on the ground or brought
them back to at fast. If they did
get into the air, the pilot was
faced with the imminent danger
that he would run out of know-
ledge, the ship would come
apart at the seams or the engine
conk out.
Adding to the confusion was
the number of designs on the
CHESS COLD — It takes more than winter temperatures to
check these chess enthusiasts in New York's frigid Central
Park, The only way to keep warm is to keep moving but the
player In the foreground at left seems to be frozen as solid as
the stone table at which he's playing.
market, Oddly enough, there
were more types of airplanes
for sale in those days than there
are now, Each type of machine
had its own type of control. A
pilot who learned to fly one type
couldn't fly another. A left-
handed pilot was no good in a
right-handed ship. Even such .a
change as the location of the
throttle created difficulties, , . .
The operation of those old-
time ships didn't require much
knowledge or flying ability.
You'd steer with the rudder bar,
pull the stick back to ascend,
shove it forward to nose down.
Your shoulder harness was con-
nected by means of a wire to
the flexible trailing edge of the
wing tips, To bank you just
hunched your shoulders. But
you always kept your eye on the
"telltale," which was the sole
flight instrument of its time and
the original turn -and -bank indi-
cator. It was nothing more than
a ribbon streamer tied to the
bamboo shaft directly in front
of • the pilot. As long as , the
streamer blew directly toward
the pilot it indicated a properly
banked turn, but when it trailed
toward the outside it warned of
a slip. If it fluttered toward the
inside of •a turn, the ship was
skidding..
I was a flier. I had no thought
for the after years. I wanted to
fly because it was the most ex-
citing thing I'd ever done. I
didn't even come close ,to visua-
lizing the air's being full of air-
planes someday. The possibility
that they'd ever be used com-
mercially never occurred to me.
They were made for fun, and I
was going to have plenty of it.
—From "Under My Wings," by
Captain Basil L. Rowe.
Mars No Venice
Say Scientists
There is life on Mars, that
strange red planet 63,000,000
miles away which is the earth's
nearest neighbour, apart from
the moon. An international team
of scientists working at an ob-
servatory in the Pyrenees say
so. They believe they have ob-
servational proof that life exists
there. But what kind of life?
Living, thinking Martia s? Or
vegetation? Or both?
"We don't know," say the ex-
perts. But they do know, after
studying markings on the sur-
face of Mars, only forty miles
apart, that changes take place
at various seasons in the planet's
soil. These changes in brightness
and colour could mean that some
kind of plants grow there,
With the dawn of 1058, as-
tronomers all over the world
are planning to take new steps
to solve this age-old mystery of
Mars, In recent months they
have discovered that if space-
men from earth do get to Mars
they will not find "canals" there.
It is now almost certain that no
artificial canals exist on Mars,
Way back in 1877 astronomer
Schiaparelli started the canals
notion. He found that dark
patches that earlier observers
had called "oceans" were con-
nected by narrow streaks, some-
times thousands of miles long.
He called these streaks "can -
ales" (channels) but bad trans-
lators made them " canals "
though they were obviously
many miles wide. Association of
ideas did the rest and for years
even learned astronomers got
into the habit of talking about
the canals on Mars,
On August 10th, 1971, Mars
will be only 35,800,000 miles
from the earth and the latest
radio -telescopes available then
are likely to add greatly to our
knowledge of the planet. Its dis-
tinctive red colour comes from
the barren deserts in the north-
ern hemisphere, but the south-
ern hemisphere is girdled by
strange, dark green areas which
might be vegetation,
"Has -Mars ever been inhabi-
ted by intelligent beings?" an
astronomer was asked recently.
"Probably not," was his cautious
reply. He added: "If living crea-
tures do exist on Mars today,
we shall find out within the next
quarter of a century, But for
reasons of climate, atmosphere
and so on it is unlikely that
such beings would bear much
resemblance to ourselves,"
Astronomers say that the Mar-
tian atmosphere is similar to
that 100,000 ft, above the earth's
surface,
Every Village
Has An Orchestra
The Balinese are a people pos-
sessed by a passionate love of
music and dancing. Every man,
whether he Is a prince or a poor
rice -farmer; seems to have the
ambition to perform in his vil-
lage orchestra or dancing group,
and those who are not talented
enough to do so count it a priv-
ilege to subscribe what they can
afford to help in the purchase of
costumes or fine instruments.
Even the poorest, smallest vil-
lage owns, communally, a game-
lan, This is the traditional or-
chestra of Bali, The majority of
its instruments are metal ones—
large hanging gongs, smaller
ones set horizontally in racks,
tiny cymbals and many different
variants on the dulcimerlike in-
strument we had seen in the
ceremony at Denpasar. In addi-
tion to these, there may be a
rehab, the two -stringed Arab
fiddle, bamboo flutes and, al-
ways, two drums,
Most of these instruments are
extremely expensive. Balinese
smiths are able to forge the
bronze keys for the dulcimers,
but the secret of making the
clearest -sounding and most mus-
ical gongs is possessed only by
the craftsmen of a small town
in southern Java and a fine
gong is therefore a treasured
possession, worth a great deal
of money,
The music produced by the
gamelan is of the most ravishing
kind, full of subtle percussive
rhythms, plangent ripples and
crashing chords. I had expected
that I should find it too foreign,
too exotic, to give any real
pleasure. Yet it was not so. The
musicians played with such
verve, conviction and dedica-
tion, and their music was alter-
nately so exciting and so tender-
ly contemplative, that we were
enraptured by it.
Twenty or thirty people are
necessary to play the full game-
lan, and they perform with a
precision and accuracy of timing
which would do credit to any
European orchestra. None of
their intricate compositions is
ever written down; the musi-
cians carry them only in . their
memories. Furthermore, every
orchestra's repertoire is so ex-
tensive that it is able to play
for many hours on end without
repeating any one composition.
This high professional skill is
only gained by arduous practice.
Each night as dusk fell the vil-
lage musicians gathered in a pa-
vilion to begin rehearsals, As
the tinkles and sonorous crashes
of the orchestra rang around
the village, we, with Mas as our
sponsor, sought out the rehearsal
pavilion to sit and listen. The
leader of the gamelan Is always
the drummer and it is through
the beats of his drum that he is
able to control the orchestra's
tempo. Uusually, however, he is
an equally skillful performer on
all the other instruments and he
often stopped the music and
walked over to one of the dul-
cimer players to demonstrate
exactly how a theme should be
played.—From "Zoo Quest for
a Dragon," by David Attenbor-
ough.
MUSICAL DRIVE
A police road patrol in Cin-
cinnati stopped the driver of
a car which they had tailed on
its erratic course for over five
minutes.
The driver explained that,
apart from an occasional tug at
the steering wheel, he had been
using both hands to demonstrate
to his girl friend how the chords
of "All Shook Up" should be
played on the guitar.

Q. How can I make olive oil
palatable for one who must take

come,'„
Q. Ifow can I remove castor

hours; it can then be removed
with any sharp instrument.

"TBE EDITOR"
Perspective portrays the role of n
weekly noWspaper in ccannounity nr-
fairs as seen in a• story about "The
Editor',' to ba televised on the CBC -
TV network on Sunday, February 16,
at 5:30 p.m.
Just how, and why, a weekly newa-
paper gets involved in local issues be-
comes apparent in this story which be-
gins when some citizens agree to sac-
rifice the heal park to encourage new
industry. The controversy finds the
weekly editor in the thick of it, and
not -entirely through choice. Unlike
the editor of a big city daily, the
weekly editor takes a big chance when
he takes a stand on local I rues, His
readers expect him to know everyone
and everything, and rely on him to
fight for those things they consider to
be for the good of the community.
r/The story of the park in Middle town
' is typicalof situations vvnaich arise In
many Canadian communities served by
weekly newspapers. It provides an op-
portunity to examine the close bond el
common interests between the staff of
a weekly newspaper and the reader.;
who may freely praise or criticise, but
always look forward to their weekly
news.
"The Editor" is a thirty -minute filet-
ed production of the National Film ,
Board for the Perspective series on tele.

Flourless Cake
This recipe for flourless cake
is something extra special, and
you will see from the directions
that it is a very old and treas-
ured recipe, I can remember
when my grandmother used
nothing less than a silver fore,
to beat the whites of eggs for
her special cakes. I don't really
think she would approve of elec-
tric mixers!
Walnut Flourless Cake
7 eggs separated
1 level teaspoon cream
tartar
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 quart English walnuts
ground fine
Beat egg yolks until pale lem-
on yellow and thick. In large
crock whip whites with a wire
whisk — or at very low speed —
until foamy, then add the cream
of tartar with a sprinkle of salt
and continue beating until stiff
(and they will not fall when
crock is turned upside down).
NQw fold in the yolks and
sifted sugar. Run the walnut
meats through the finest blade of
your food chopper and add last
to the mixture, folding carefully.
Line layer cake pans with oiled
paper and pour mixture into
them. Bake in a slow oven about

CHAOS—One of history's great-

the Gobi -Altai Mountain area of
Outer Mongolia Jest December
4, reports Izvestia, official So-

compared with "prehistoric con-
vulsions" of the earth, is said
to have moved mountains, cre-
ated ne6v volleys and diverted
rivers. An expedition to the
area reports one gigantic crev-
ice 65 feet wi.ie and 155 miles
long.

I'
Worked Too Hard ,
John Marshall, a 35=year-old
German immigrant, tried hi.,
best making piston rings in a
British engineering plant. His
best, it turned out, was tbo good.
Last month, Marshall was scorn-
ed by his workmates, jobless,
and branded for life as "the man
who worked too hard."
All the workers at the Shef-
field plant of Lockwood and
Carlisle, Ltd., had agreed among
themselves to limit their piece-
work output to 70 cents' worth
per hour — all, that is, except
Marshall.
The immigrant turned out as
many pistons as he could, and
the weekly paycheck he took
home to his wife and daughter
was regularly about $1 more
than that of the other workers.
That started the trouble.
Summoned before a kangaroo
court run by the engineering
union's Communist -dominated lo-
cal branch, Marshall was found
guilty of overwork, The branch
ordered him to give his "excess"
earnings to its sick fund. He re-
fused; the union booted him out.
That meant dismissal from the
closed -shop factory.
Some 700,000 British mine-
workers, whose man-hour pro-
duction has been slipping, last
week demanded a reduction in
surface workers' 421 -hour work
week, already one of the shortest
in Europe. In hard -worker John
Marshall's native G e r m an y,
which has been capturing many
British markets, West German
Economics Minister Ludwig Er-
hard told labor unions they
should up their average 45-hou:
week by another hour.

SIR WINSTON'S WORK — Repl•oduced below are two of a col-
lection of 35 paintings by Sir Winston Churchill which will be
shown to American audiences for the first time in a tour of art
museums during 1958. Churchill is not a professional artist and
has never sold any of his paintings, but in the opinion of most
art authorities and laymen who have viewed his work, he is
a versatile and extraordinarily skilled amateur. Churchill be-
gan to paint as a diversion in 1915 after he was forced to
relinquish his post as First Lord of the Admirality following
British failure to seal off the Black Sea in their ill-starred
Dardanelles campaign. From 1916 through 1957, Churchill paint-
ed some 300 canvases, most of which he has kept.. His paint-
ings include landscapes and seascapes painted on three con-
tinents, a number of still lifes, and one work entitled "Bottle -
:cape," and arrangement of wine and liqueur bottles, glasses
and what appear to be cigar boxes.
"Plug Street," one of Churchill's earliest, was done in 1916.
"Bottlescape," a still life painted by Sir Winston in 1932.

Getting Ready To
Sail The Ocean
Sid Mashford was sitting in
the cockplt of Felicity Ann leaf-
ing through a list of modifica-
tions that Humphrey had made
out...
"There's a lot of work here,"
said Sid, "and this is our busi-
est time of year. Everyone wants
their boats ready and launched
for Easter. Are you sure all this
is necessary?"
I thought I could detect a cer-
tain resentment, FA was a yard
production; designed by SId and
built by the firm, There are few
things a man is more sensitive
about than the qualities of his
boat. Humphrey had sent speci-
fications, made out by the firm
of Laurent Giles for entirely
new rigging — "as the mast is
stepped on deck we cannot take
any chances," Humphrey had
written — and drawings for a
reduced sail plan, which meant
taking six feet off the mast and
eight inches off the boom, There
was to be a watertight and self -
draining cockpit. A twenty•flve

ATHEROSCLEROSIS — NUMBER ONE HEALTH ENEMY
By EUGENE A, , STEAD, M.D.
Duke University Medical Center
Written for NEA Service
DURHAM, N.C. — (NEA) —
The vital organs of the body
become sick and die in one of
two ways: either the cells making
up these organs become injured
and die although adequately
supplied with blood, or healthy
cells die because the arteries
bringing the blood to them have
beccme clogged.
In our society, the second way
of dying is most common. Obit-
uary writers usually refer only
to the Immediate event, perhaps
a heart attack or a stroke. What
we are concerned with here is
the condition which sets the
stage for the event. This is at):-
erosclerosis — target of one of
the most intensive research ef-
forts in the history of medicine,
The problem is similar to that
of the plumbing in a house. In
order to keep a good flow of
water, we must have a reason-
able head of pressure, In the
body this head of pressure is
supplied by the heart; we record
it as blood pressure.
If the pressure head is ton
high in one's household plumb -
.Ing, we have undue wear on the
pipes, which show a tendency to
bulge and leak at the joints, la
man, high blood pressure, cr
hypertension, increases the stress
on the blood vessels and tends
to wear them out prematurely.
The plumbing in a -house will
last for a variable number of
years, depending on the kinds of
pipes originally installed and on
the properties of 'the Mater cir-
culating through them. Various
types of materials dissolved or
suspended in the water will have
an effect on the bore of the pipes,
and will be one factor in deter-
mining how long the pipes re-
main open.
These same variables are pres-
ent in the system which circu-
lates the blood. The type of blood
vessel in our body is a function
of heredity. In certain families,
blood vessel disease is nearly un-
heard of until very old age; in
others, many die- from stopping
up of the arteries before the age
of 50. The composition of the
of the blood also has an effect
on the blood vessel walls.
Our comparison with the house
plumbing breaks down at this
point. Walls of blood vessels and
the fluid circulating in them are
far more complex.
Artery walls are made up of
Hying tissues and their products
They contain hundreds of dit-
ferent substances in certain fix-
ed relationships, and are living
systems of great complexity in
composition, in anatomy and in
function: Also complex is the
blood, which varies in composi-
tion from minute to minute
throughout each 24 hours,
When there is a breakdown In
any of the series of integrated
reactions giving the properties of
life to the arterial wall, the end
result is an abnormal blood ves-
sel. All changes in structure
which affect the inner lining of
the large and medium-sized
blood vessels, producing the pic.
ture of atherosclerosis. These
changes do not have a single
cause.
In this' article, I shall not at-
tempt to explain the many com•
plex chemical changes involved
as the life chain in the arterial
wall is broken. I shall merely
note that it is in this system
of multiple variables, acting over
a lifetime, that the are trying
to pick out things that are im-
portant in the development -of
blood vessel disease.
Over the years, we have con.
centrated first on the descriptive
phase of blood vessel disease
(how it develops and how it can
be recognized in life and death),
and secondly on the study of the
effects on various organs of a
decrease in blood supply, These
were problems that could be un-
dertaken by practicing physi-
cians, who have made large con.
tributions in these areas.
But the problems of the client'

They Bartered
For Soft Jobs
"Do you think I•Iis Lordship
will see me soon?
The scene is the anteroom of
the Lord Chancellor at the
Royal Courts at Westminster
Hall, and the year is 1715.
"What was it about?" inquires
the Lord Chancellor's clerk,
The waiting man rises, cups
his mouth and whispers, "Chaff -
wax!"
"Ah, I don't know about that.
But come with me. We can't dis-
cuss it here. Who recommends
you?"
Together the two move off.
Another deal is on. A deal in one
of those strange jobs that were
in the gift of, or for sale by, the
Lord Chancellor , .
When George I was newly on
his throne, the age of sinecures,
or cushy jobs with good saalries
• and little work; was at its peak.
Chaffwax was one of these
jobs,.The Lord Chancellor could
do one of three things about it.
He could leave the post vacant
and pocket the salary himself.
He could sell the appointment to
the highest bidder. Or he could
appoint somebody "on the level".
Some chancellors chose one
way, some another,
Chaffwax was a joke. All he
had to do was to stick s'aling
wax or documents. The job car-
ried a good salary and was worth
paying for.
So, too, was the Clerkship of
the Han..per, another Chancery
racket. The hanaper was a
wicker 'basket, Into it all writs
had to go to be sealed—for a fee.
Then there was the Registrar
of Affidavits, the Protonotary
(chief clerkship) of the court,
and several other soft, cushy
jobs, making their holders gentle-
men of independent means.
Under the Lord Chancellor
were the Masters in Chancery.
Very often they had the handling
of the money of suitors for cushy
-
At that time all England was
crazy over the South Sea Bubble,
the phony business venture that
was going to make everybody
rich,
Lord Chancellor Macclesfield
did some brisk business, He sold
the Chancery jobs at high prices
and invested:;;t1 a 'proceeds and
much more ini,Soutb Sea Bubble
stock.
•
He knew vetjy.ell that the
Masters in Chane 'were also
bitten by the garnii :g bug; that
they, too, were investing large
sums. Where were they getting
the cash from?
The Lord Chancellor looked
the other way,
DON'T BE ONE — Only a goof
Is a "guberif"—firebug, that is
—according to folks in ah.
This forest fire prevent on
theme is carried on the face of
postcards being distributed by

CROSSWORD
PUZZLE
The the blow fell. The colossal
swindle was unmasked.
Among many other people in
high places, the Lord Chancellor
was ruined. Worse, he was now
charged with corruption and im-
peached for trafficking in sine-
cures, and convicted,
HIs successor in office was
„Lord•IIardwieke, who had started-
' 'Ilfe as an errand boy, He, too,
was accused of corruptino,
A Member of Parliament ac-
cused Hardwicke or—complete
cynical indifference to the wide-
spread graft in the Chancery
Court,
"Touch but a cobweb in West-
minster Hall," he thundered,
"and out upon you with all the
vermin at his heels comes the
old spider."
It would be wrong, however,
to think the judges of the past
were generally dishonorable 1nen.
They were considered to be gen-
erally honest, But they follow-
ed the customs of their times.
And gifts, patronage, and social
and political wire -pulling were
recognized wyas of getting on in
the world.
Every New Year the King him-
self accepted valuable presents of
all kinds from those who hoped
to secure the royal favor and
a good job.
One of the greatest Englishmen
who ever lived was Lord Chan-
cellor Lord St. Albans, later Vis-
count Verulam, known to fame
as Sir Francis Bacon.
Bacon was convicted of graft.
He admitted it when hauled be-
fore his peers in the House of
Lords to answer the charge of
corruption.
He was accused of accepting
bribes from suitors for jobs. Who
could believe it of this man who
was not only a great lawyer but
scientist and philosopher too?
Bacon removed all doubt him-
self. Taking his quill, he wrote:
"I confess that I am guilty of
corruption, and do renounce all
defence and put myself upon the
grace and mercy of your lord-
ships."
He was deprived of office, fined
£ 40,000 and thrown into the
Tower,
Later, the fine was remitted
and he was permitted to sit in
the House of Lords. But he was
a broken man,
Though Bacon confessed, • he
later qualified that confession by
a. curious modification. He' said';
that•At was true that he took'=
•_motley bribes from suitors .ap�
pe3rlhg in his court, but said .it
never influenced his judgment!
This may well seem•a bit rough
on the litigant who parted with
his cash to square his judge!
Today, all British judges from
those of the country courts to
those who preside over the high-
est tribunal in the land, are held
to be above suspicion.
But some years ago a crooked
solicitor, •in league with a crook-
ed barrister, bamboozled an
Italian charged with a serious
crime, They told him that if he
paid over a large sum of money
they would square the Old Bailey
judge,
The accused man paid up.
Imagine his indignation when the
jury convicted him and the judge
gave him the appropriate sent-
ence.
In that case the. -victim "blab-
bed" and the two lawyers were
very properly dealt with as the
rogues they were,

old lady is always delighted with
the lunches, and the other day,
as she sipped the milk, she said
gravely, "Oh, Larry, don't ever

HARVEST TIME — It's rice harvest time on Formosa, and this
pretty lass doing her share at Taichung, wears gauntlets to pro-
tect her -arms from the sun. Believe It or not a suntan Is not
fashionable in Formosa. Man behind her works over a screened
tub used to shake the rice grains loose. Free China is harvesting
the greatest rice crop In her history, 1,900,000 metric ions —
breaking the 1956 record of 1,789,000 tons Famine, a periodic
scourge in Communist China, is unkown on Formosa. In fact,,
Free China will export 200,000 metric tons from the 1957 rice
crop to Japan.
NF2OT�
The difficult thing about rain
making is that you never know
just how the weather will • turn
out. Not long ago, federal gov-
ernment rain makers arrived at
a certain to'wn in rural Aus-
tralia, after farmers in those
parts had urged the need for a
little federal rain making but
when the rain makers landed in
their special rain making air-
craft to begin operations, they
had to unfurl their umbrellas to
cope with the steady drizzle
that was falling.
The farmers thereabouts, now
that they had rain, felt the,rain
makers should not attempt any-
thing at all in the way of
weather experimentation, as the
drizzle promised enough rain
for early sowing and too much
would be ruinous, Frankly, they
didn't want them to stay in the
district, Maybe it was because
they knew that one thing rain
makers like to do is to "trigger"
off a bigger fall from a modest
one. If this works out right, it
serves to prove the rain makers
know what they are talking
about, though some farm folks
still are apt to regard all this
talk of federal rain making as
just another excuse for high
taxes. Anyway, a lot of them
seem to have sunk a good deal
of money in dans on their prop-
erties. e * e
The press treats the rain
makers for the most part very
kindly, "We made it rain," they
allowed one to say in headlines.
He went on to claim that his
unit had made it rain six times
between two towns out west.
Rain was still falling at our
o'clock from clouds that had
been "seeded" at three o'clock,
he said. Nobody between the
two towns concerned seems to
have argued very much against
this federal claim but that does
not mean everybody was con-
vinced,
Elsewhere, the press said there
was "no bluffing" about this sort
of thing, which suggested the
press were., really sold on the
whole proposition. One paper
explained that the idea was "to
bring the rain down when and
where it was wanted." An
that's about right, according to
the best rain -making authorities.
Any rain maker, in fact, who
does not base his whole theory
and practice on that proposition
isn't doing any more than just
fool around with the weather.
The government has now an-
nounced that federal rain mak-
ers are "not yet ready to apply
the results of the rain -making
techniques on any appreciable
scale."
Frankly, that kind of oMelal
statement is surprising, if not
to say, odd. For one thing, it
does federal raid makers very
little credit when people remem-
ber that federal experiments
began over 10 years ago, Any-
way, what about all that rain
that fell at four o'clock way out
west on six different occasions?
R * e
On the other hand, the gov-
ernment announced that federal
rain makers were "pressing on."
At least, that sounded more en-
couraging. The government
pointed out that the rain mak-
ers "now know a great deal
about this (rain -making) pro-
cess."
The rain makers had "seeded"
at least 150 single clouds and
had watched the subsequent de-
velopment of rain, "There is no
doubt of this," said the official
statement. "The theory and
practice are well understood."
While no university in Aus-
tralia has yet invited candi-
dates to proceed to a rainmak-
ing degree (R.M.), the theore-
tical groundwork is being stead-
ily laid, as the government
statement indicated. For exam-
ple, in what is termed Practical
Rain Making there are all kinds
of rain which the student must
be able to identify—cold rain,
warm rain, non-freezing rain,
supercooled rain, shower s,
patchy rain, ordinary drizzle
and Scotch mist which, for prac-
tical purposes, is fine weather,
at least in the Highlands, writes

Upsidedown to Prevent Peeking
Albert Norman in The Christian
Science Monitor,
Then theril are aerosols or
condensation nuclei, ordinary
drops of rain, small drops of
rain, smallish raindrops, aver-
age droplets, droplets which
are subaverage and which can
be classified for accuracy and
the purpose of this discussion as
minims or the Goth part of a
fluid drachm,
On the cloudy side of things
are orographic clouds, elongated
clouds, clouds visible and invis-
ible, clouds dark and light,
clouds small and great and wet -
looking clouds. The latter are
most favored by rain makers,
it seems.
It is astonishing how rapidly
rain making has established its
folk story. The tale is recounted
of a gentleman who was voted
the sum of $9,000 by Congress
for rain -making • experiments
over Washington, D.C., in the
'nineties, Nobody seems to know
whether this allocation of pub-
lic funds marked the origin of
federal rain making in the
United States, but the gentle-
man's experiments failed to
convince Congress and he mov-
ed, it was said, to Texas. Very
probably, the clouds were much
bigger down there.
* e 5
But there is no doubt that the
art of rain making is control.
This aspect has been developed
to its utmost in Australia and
even the rain makers are con-
trolled. It is really all very sim-
ple. A certain goNt rnment de- •
partment (there shall be no
names) evidently reads the pa-
pers to see what farmers across
the country are saying about the
weather. And since farmers are
always saying something about
it, there is no lack of data on
which to base official action.
Having noted, for example,
that a farmer in one part of the
country reportedly said, "It is
about time we had a shower or
two," the department would
weigh this observation against
.those of other farmers on the
weather.
When these were sorted in
their order of significance, there
would appear an order of prior-
ity and federal rain makers
would be routed around the
country accordingly.
After they had soaking rains
In the wheat belt last year, the
controllers of the rain makers
decided that the government
would conduct no rain -making
operations in that area.
No doubt that was wise. Af-
ter all, when a farmer hu just
the kind of rain he needs, he
doesn't want the federal govern-
ment tomfooling 'around with it.
What they do with taxes is bad
enough.

By Rev. R. Barclay Warren
B.A,, B.D.
The Preaching Ministry
of the Church
Romans 10:14-17;
Tpheslans 3:7-19
Memory Selection: Faith cometh
by hearing, and hearing by the
word of God, Romans 10:17.
Last week we considered' the
teaching ministry of the church.
In a teaching ministry the stress
is upon helping others to per-
ceive the truth, whereas in a
preaching ministry the stress is
upon causing others to act upon
the truth. The difference is
something like the difference
between a Bible conference and
an evangelistic campaign. The
minister must be ready and able
to teach (2 Timothy 2:24) and
also do the work of an evange-
list (4:5).
The preacher needs to have
the consciousness of being sent
by God. Otherwise he will not
fully appreciate the value of the
message of the unsearchable
riches of Christ. Jesus Christ
was poor in this world's goods
but he was rich in wisdom. "0
the depth of the riches both of
the wisdom and knowledge of
God! How unsearchable arc his
judgments and his ways past
finding out!" (Romans 9:33.) It
is a living faith in Him who is
so wise that gives us calm in
this Sputnik age.
Christ is rich in goodness.
Paul asks, "Despisest thou the
riches of his goodness and for-
bearance and longsuffering; not
knowing that the goodness of
God leadeth thee to repent-
ance?" (2:4.) There would be no
hope for the sinner but for the
riches of His goodness.
He is rich in power.,He can
forgive our sins and purify our
hearts and dwell in us by faith.
This is even greater than His
power in creating and uphold-
ing the universe.
"'Tis great to speak a world
from nought
'Tis greater to redeem."
What a message we have for
man! Phillips says in his trans-
lation of 1 Corinthians 1:111
"The preaching of the cross is,
I know, nonsense to those wits
are involved in this dying
world, but to us who are being
saved from that death it le
nothing less than the power of
God," Let us tell it everywhere.
JUST US CHICKENS — A twisted and battered section of a
chicken cage, complete with chickens, rests in a tree in Santa

the birds perished or were injured in the demolished building.
