Kissing Is
In The News
It was festival time in the old
Danish city. Wine flowed and
kisses were freely exchanged.
Young men embraced girls they
had never seen before and kissed
them heartily. The girls—many
of whom had come in from ad,
joining towns and villages—re-
eponded zestfully.
One young fellow who had al-
ready kissed at least 20 girls
stood outside his father's shop
with roving eyes, seeking more
pretty victims amid the surging
crowds.
Suddenly he saw a bewitching
stranger, a flaxen -haired teen-
ager in a rainbow -colored dress
who was sauntering past with
her older sister.
In an instant he was beside
her. His arm encircled her slim
waist and he gave her a long,
lingering kiss. It thrilled hint
more than all the other kisses
he had enjoyed dur:r.g the last
hour. It thrilled the girl, too.
He was about to kiss her again
when she gave him a resounding
smack on the face and cried in-
dignantly: "Don't you dare kiss
me again! I don't knuw you!"
It was true. She was an
American lass spending a bri'f
holiday in Denmark with her
parents, her father being an oil
magnate. At the age of 17 stwe
had never kissed any young man,
least of all one tis ardent as
the young Dane.
The girl and her sister had been
brought up in a small town
where men were scarce and this
was their first trip abroad.
The Dane apologizeo profusely
and bowed low before leaving
the girls, holding his still -
smarting cheek as he went.
Next day, however, he met the
girl again. She repented at hav-
ing slapped him, A romance de-
veloped and they were married
within a few months. When the
girl's father died the young
couple inherited about $1,000,000.
Many girls, even today, grow
to womanhood without being
kissed by anybody but their
parents and other near relatives.
The joys of kissing for the sheer
fun of it have never been theirs.
Kissing has been pressing into
the news lately. A leading doctor
has expressed the view that
In Britain they are kissing too
seldom. He does not advocate
indiscriminate kissing but he
does say that when young people
are fond of each other kissing
Is a wonderful way to ease stress
and discord.
Yet another doctor has recent-
ly recommended kissing as a
palliative when mother-in-law
trouble besets young married
couples. He thinks kissing is a
cure for many marriage troubles
and says that most other doctors
agree with him . He also thinks
that middle-aged couples should
kiss more often and adds: "To;,
often a peck is all they ex-
change."
Let's take a closer look at this
kissing business for it fascinates
most people. And it's surprising
to discover what an all -embrac-
ing subject it realy isl
The research experts, however,
are still rather vague about the
origin of kissing. Some say it
began in Roman times. When
the men returned from the wars
they put their lips to those of
wives, not to greet them but to
find out whether the women had
been drinking the wine stored
in their cellars.
They must have enjoyed these
early kisses, for kissing soon
became an important feature of
a number of festivals
There's no doubt that in many
countries kissing was merely a
matter of etiquette for many
years. For centuries kissing was
equally unknown in China and
Japan and even today it is not
popular in either country.
Neither the Eskimo nor the
Maori is keen on kissing.
At the Art Exhibition in
Tokyo in 1924 the work of the
sculptor, Rodin, "The Kiss", wits
hidden behind a screen. When
a Frenoh visitor complained
about it he received this answer
from the chief of police:
"Rodin's group had to be hid-
den behind the screen because
kissing is a disgusting European
habit which we wish, at any
price, to keep out of Japan. It
is only because of the interna-
tional reputation of the sculptor
that the group has been allowed
to enter the country at alI."
Life -Saving Fly
Flies are not normally associ-
ated with life-saving, but at least
one fly can take the credit for,
saving the lives of sixteen peo-
ple at Sao Paulo In Brazil.
A clerk in the finance depart-
ment was making coffee for her
fellow workers when a fly set-
tled on the open tin of coffee and
promptly dropped dead,
The puzzled girl called anoth-
gr employee and they caught a
ipy and brought it to the tin; it
too dropped dead.
An analysis revealed that the
coffee was mixed with a large
quantity of cyanide.
Drive With Care
TECHNIQUE—The thumb goes In like so, but no mdtic comes
out. Debra Lynn Taylor Thacker, 2%2, has the right idea but
the wrong instrument, A bugle, perhaps, or a trumpet might
produce better results than a thumb but it wouldn't be half so
satisfying.

con drippings or bits of ham is
still popular. One family that I
know likes to boil new green
beans until tender, then to brown
them slightly in olive oil to
which a garlic clove has been
added.
Another method is to cook
them in salted water until ten-
der, then (to 4 cups) add 3 table-
spoons butter, salt and pepper
and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg.
A quick and simple way to
make a "company" dish of green
beans is to combine them with
sauteed fresh mushrooms. French
the beans and cook, then toss
lightly in the skillet with the
sauteed, sliced mushrooms. Sea-
son with salt and pepper and a
brief squeeze of lemon juice.
If you like green beans com-
bined with tomatoes, try this:

On A Houseboat
In Kashmir
The Valley of Kashmir was
below us. Fields and meadows
lightly brushed with green, yel-
low patches of mustard in flower,
trees pricked with young buds,
cherry trees like sea foam,
flooded rice fields that mirrored
snows and sky, like the lead
lines in a stained glass window.
Along the road at intervals were
thatched roofs of houses, mark-
ing a village. The sun caught
the road so that it seemed to
flow into the valley with the
great silver curves of a river.,,
Our house in the Valley is
made of natural polished wood,
carved and fitted together. The
gabled windows drip wooden
icicles. Pots of scarlet geraniums
line the flat part of the roof,
which has a little railing, Ruffled
curtains hang on the outside of
the windows. The house floats.
It can be poled through the
waterways of the Vailey, canals,
lakes, and the Jhelum River, and
tied up under any willow we
wish, A floating Hansel-anJ-
Gretel cottage, with a catwalk
round it and a little gangplank --
that is a Kashmiri houseboat
from the outside , .. Our house-
boat is called the Peony ,
The Peony is moored at Na-
geen, a lake that is small and
oval-shaped, five miles by road
from Srinagar , . . Willows and
chenar, the Persian sycamore,
grow along the banks. The
many Persian things in the Val-
ley, chenar, lilacs that are bluer
than ours, the pleasure gardens
of Shalimar and Nishat, the
poetry, and banquet food were
left behind by the Mogul Em-
perors, who loved to summer
here. Not ten steps from the
Peony is a cherry orchard in
full blossom and a little beyond
that a field of daisies, and a path
that leads to the main road.
In the heart of the lake is an
underwater world of inverted
snow mountains, green hills, and
reeds, so fragile that anything
can splinter it—the ducks that
swim past morning and evening,
a kingfisher flashing turquoise
as it' dives; eyen the sma'1
shikaras that rest on the water
lightly as a flower petal.
The water around the boat Is
so clear that we can see the
waterweeds gently swaying, a
forest for tiny spun -glass fish
Around the boat are bowl -
shaped lotus leaves with a pearl
of water in the centre of each,
and water -lilies, and frogs, and
butterflies and dragon -flies that
swobp over the lake like winged
needles, and always we can hea:
cicadas, but seldom see them . .
Callers begin to come, whole
fleets of them, The flower boat,
like a floating bowl, full of daf-
fodils; bluebells, iris, and some-
times lilies -of -the -valley with the
rootswrapped in moss. For a
few, annas a day the Peony can
be turned into a garden. Pir the
Candy Man has a red tin trunk
amidships, loaded with pepper-
mints and fudge which, he says,
'a missionary lady' taught him
to make. And there are sellers
of shawls, -embroideries, carved
desk, papiermache boxes, furs,
jewellery, carpets, toy house-
boats, and all the hand -made
things the Valley is famous for,
Back To Ice Age
For Britain ?
British and American scien-
tists have made a remarkable
discovery about the powerful
and mysterious Gulf Stream—
that warm blue river which
flows across the cold green At-
lantic from the Gulf of Mexico
and is believed to be largely
responsible for the British
el imate,
For the first time they have
been able to map Its underlying
flow of water. They found that
the Gulf Stream has an "under-
tow" current moving in the op-
posite direction at depths of
about 9,000 feet,
The Gulf Stream starts with
a tremendous volume of water
moving at the fantastic rate of
25 million tons a second. Its
mighty flow is subject to impor-
tant variations and these are be-
ing constantly -studied by ex-
perts.
The water travels at about
seventy-two miles a day. If the
Gulf Stream were cooled by as
little as fifteen degrees, Scan-
dinavia, German y, Northern

Princess Grace
By Rosette Ilatrgrove
Monte Carlo (NEA) — And
now, the true -life story of what
happens when an American city
girl (Grace Kelly) marries a big
executive (Prince Rainier) and
goes to live in the suburbs
(Monaco).
After two years of marriage,
one should not be surprised to
find some changes. But in this
tiny principality, the changes
have been enough to stagger the
minds of the 2,600 Monegasques.
Consider fora moment the
royal husband. Two years ag6,
young Rainier was a shy, taci-
turn, complicated young man
with an intense interest in rac-
ing cars, his private zoo, and
his yacht.
And now? This happy hus-
band has sold his yacht, given
up his fast cars and seldom vis-
its his zoo any more.
Instead, he devotes his time
to affairs of state, especially a
national project of a vast under-
ground railway system which
will be used by the coastal
trains that now run right
through the realm. This plata
will give Monaco new land on
which to build an Eden of ultra
modern apartment houses facing
the blue Mediterranean,
The prince's shyness "has al-
most completely disappeared, He
is demonstrative with his wife
and children, and is what one
would expect of a happy hus-
band and father — much more
than Monaco ever expected its
ruler to be.
And If Rainier has changed,
Princess Grace has been trans-
formed, Two years ago she was
a movie actress in the public
eye every moment. As new roy-
alty she was aloof. And today, ,
Well, the royal couple has
,sold their luxurious villa on the
Riviera because it attracted too
many sight -seers. They are now
building a small cottage retreat
high on Mont Agel, away from
curious eyes.
Her aptitude for French has
made it easy to talk with her
new subjects. She has taken a
personal interest in social agen-
cies, orphan asylums, the lives
of her people, the Red Cross,
At least one day each week
she is "at home" to the women
of the nation who come to tea
and talk of the state, the wea-
ther, the problems of modern
living and the national game of
football.
From time to time rumors rise
about Grace's return to movies.
"Sheer nonsense," says a pal-
ace habitue. "She is perfectly
.happy and much too busy as
wife of Prince Rainier and mo-
ther of two children to consider
any outside activity."
Grace herself says emphati-
cally that the two "cannot be
mixed."
The Monegasques have seen
themselves change, too, after
two years since their Prince's
marriage;
In every home above the man -
After Two Years
tlepiece are two Christmas cards
bearing the House of Grimaldi
arms. These cards are inscribed:
"With all my wishes for your
happiness (signed) Grace."
Palace staff members have re-
ceived personal gifts from their
monarchs each Christmas. No-
body expects meaningless ap-
pearancestate functions from
the rulers. No one tries to make
an appointment at the Palace on
Thursdays— the maid's day off
-- when Grace has the children
to herself.
But when emergencies arise,
Monaco Is sure their Prince and
Princess will be there.
Politics in this little country
have relaxed, too, in the past
two years, Political parties feel
ably experience a return to ice -
age conditions, The lush green
landscapes would become like
that of Labrador.
Some scientists believe thea
by systematically recording the
temperature of the Gulf Stream
we could confidently forecast
the weather for long periods,
When a U.S. flying -boat crash-
ed into the Atlantic on a titter.
ly cold January day some yearg
ago, members of the crew whe
were rescued after drifting i
ci
the• ocean for ten hours asserts
that it was the warm water
the Gulf Stream that had save
their lives,
Sometimes ship's officers haul
tried to test the forcq of tits
Stream's flow for themselves,
As long ago as 1513, a French
man sailing to Florida was
amazed to discover that in spite
of the strong favouring winds
his vessel was actually driven
back by the motion of the water,
When Britain or America has
had a particularly cold winter.
it is sometimes suggested that
the Gulf Stream has somehow
"changed its course," At a point
where it is about 300 miles wide,
the Stream meets the icy Labra-
dor current, a strange union
which results in thick fogs,
such a step.
On the other hand, it is point-
ed out that Rainier is sublimely
lacking in politic f 'sense. His
tendency to play -.the part of
Louis XIV (the power of life,
death and banishment) is con-
sidered rather ridiculous,
All the same, the right of ban-
ishment is no empty threat, as
the turbulent Lady Docker
found recently when she and
her millionaire husband, Sir
Bernard Docker, were expelled
not only from Monaco but from
the three French departments
which constitute the Cote d'Azur
on the French Riviera, under a
treaty between France and
Monaco.
But regardless of national and
international politics, Monaco is
still a little surprised at how its
NEWLYWEDS, TWO YEARS AGO, Rainier was a shy, taciturn
man, his bride was aloof. They turned their backs on the
public as they did here on a New York shopping expedition,
free enough to enter the. public
arena and fight for what they
want.
In Monaco today, sentiment is
for a revision of the Principali-
ty's constitution, and the estab-
lishment of a Financial Court
which would control state funds
— until now finder the sole
power of Prince Rainier.
"But," commented a French
observer, "to jump to the con-
clusion that Rainier faces more
difficulties with his government
is somewhat premature."
Everyone agrees that a palace
revolution and the proclamation
of a republic in Monaco is not
going to happen tomorrow. The
country would lose too much by
reactions have changed to two
years,
"Today," said a 77 -year-old
fifth generation Monegasque,
"every one of us would let our-
selves be cut up in little pieces
for our princess. She is more
of a princess than any of royal
blood and she has become one
of us — a Monegasque."
And with, the birth of a son,
Albert, 14 months after the birth
of a daughter, Caroline, Prin-
cess Grace has given her new
land another very real reason
to love her: an heir to the throne
that keeps Monaco from becom-
ing just another French depart-
ment with taxes and military
service.
DIFFERENCE TWO YEARS MAKE is ar:'rent h—e c s the now demonstrative Rainier and un -
aloof Princess Grace show off their chi;:'t.:i, P Caioline and Prince Albert.
Fence Mending
Something there is that doesn't
mend a fence as much as it used
to, and I am glad, The great
change in the bovine category
has left me free of fence worries,
both In and out, and for some
years now there has been no
demand on me to take the old
pail of staples and hike out in
the spring mud to mend the pale,
Time was that everybody had
cattle, including us, and fences
had to be kept up. But nowadays
the regulations, restrictions, and
regimentation have had their
effect, and hardly anybody keeps
a cow unless he -can keep a lot
of them.
I got to thinking about fences
this week when I had to peel a
few spruce poles to fix my grape
arbor. Peeling fence posts was a
tedious chore, and by spring al-
most any farm would have a
cord of them peeled and pointed
and ready, You'd have more if
you had a new fence in mind,
Pointing them was a two-man
job if you had two men. One
would hold the post up on the
block, turning it a bit after each
swipe, and the other would
swing the ax. You just stood
there and swung the ax until
the poles were all pointed, and
the other fellow picked them up
and held them and laid them
down again. You were just like
a machine for hours on end. A
good man, with a sharp ax and
a sure stroke, could point posts
so they looked as if a machine
did it, too.
Then, you'd load the pusts on
a drag, along with the patent
wire tightener and a reel of
wire, the pail of staples and
your tools, and the horse would
take you to work. There would
be downed trees across the
fence, wires broken down by
hunters, poles that had given up,
and sometimes whole stretches
laid flat by the snow. You had
to get the entire fence back in
shape before the grass was green
and the cows got on it.
Perhaps nobody has ever
paused to think that page after
page of ancient legislation and
decisions without end have been
repudiated by present-day fenc-
ing -- which consists sometimes
of pushing small metal rods in
the ground and suspending a
single wire on insulators. The
animals respect the quick com-
mand of the low voltage and
keep in bounds. This is inter-
esting, for cows would jump a
six-foot fence of woven wire,
but they keep their distance with
an electric fence, .
However, once there was a
wise and just jurist, a thought-
ful judge on a, dignified bench,
and he sat, without laughing,
during a long and tedious liti-
gation over how strong a fence
must be. He weighed the testi-
mony and arguments, and hand-
ed down the magnificent deci-
sion that a fence, in addition to
other established qualities, must
be stror; enough for a man to
lean on. Leaning on fences, he
held, was an integral part of the
American heritage, an unalien-
able right the courts are bound
to recognize and protect.
The electric. fence, I submit,
does not qualify in this respect,
and therefore is illegal and un-
AmerIcan. The man who takes

his cltlznship seriously, and goes
about leaning on electric fences,
will find they are not lawfully
made,
Another interesting decision
had to 'do with the width of a
fence. Another judge ruled that
dimension is presumed, and that
although the line between two
farms has no geometrical prop-
erties, the fence that denotes it
has substance and allowance
must be made for lame,
This sounds like so much legs-
listic double-talk until you rea-
lize that the court was adjudi-
cating the curious contrivance
known as a "Virginia Fence."
This was a post and rail barrier
obviously Invented in a state
wnere labor was more prevalent
than In Maine. It took a great
deal more lumber, which had
to be cut and shaped. And the
fence zigzagged in such a man-
ner that Yankee ship captains,
when they had to tack into the
wind for days without making
any mileage, entered the simi-
lar zigzagging in their logs as
"made Virginia fence all day .."
Anyway, somebody built a Vir-
ginia fence on the line, and his
neighbor raised the good ques-
tion of how much land you need
to delineate an imaginary line.
The judge allowed that a Vit.-,
ginia fence which staggered over
ten feet of land was, in the fact
and the law, of no greater judi-
cial width than a strand of wire.
It might look wider, but i was
not so in the eyes of the court.
How wide a fence you can
therefore erect is left for future
deliberations, but probably the
question will never, come . up.
Certainly the Yankee stone wall
has substance, too, and we must
presume dimensions.
Back in the forgotten laws of
early days, the extent of ,fence
statutes amazes. To settle all
the varied squabbles that arose
when the country was first being
settled and fenced, legislators
deliberated thoughtfully and
courts sat tedious hours. And
law, custom, and usage built the
fence into a farmer's urgencies
until we got poems about it, and
wise saws and pithy sayings.
All- leading, it seems, up to to
the point where fences lapse
into desuetude and nobody
sharpens posts any more,
Oh, a few -but not as we
used to in the spring, slapping
the first hatch of blackflies and
hoping to get the job done before
the hay ran out. Chunking an
iron bar into the. mud to ream
a hole, and then 'standing on
the; bunk of the dra ,;to whack
Ake‘ -post into 'plaeb..:th• a fence
maul,
There was a peculiar knack to
drawing a wire taut, and khen
driving a staple -a knack that
requires about thirteen agile
hands, But the job could be
done with two, although you'd
have to see it to believe it. And
it might be hard, in this day and
age, to step out quickly and find
a good fence -fixer, with or with-
out extra hands. I never cared
much for mending fences, and I
got all the peeling I wanted fix-
ing the grape arbor. -By John
Gould in The Christian Science

The world's "floating city',
Venice, may soon find Itself
vanishing' under the waters of
its canal streets! Millions of
termites have been discovered
feeding on the woodwork of
several score of houses and

The termites are said to be
almost indestructible and pe-
culiar to Venice, and so far no
effective remedy has been found
against them,
Apart from the new menace,
Venice was already finding it
difficult to keep its head above

KINDbtJF SOIL
'This slide rule helps farmers reduce soil loss from rainfa I.
Embodying research data compiled over the last 30 years, the
rule makes possible fast and reliable soil loss estimates right
in the field. The rule is fed information concerning the amount
of rain, type of soil and soil cover, length of slope and other
factors. These are given numerical values and a trained tech-
nician can find the best combination of cropping system and
conservation practices which meets the needs of a particular
farm.
TIIL&N FRONT
Feeding value is equally as
important as tonnage per acre in
determining the stage at which
grasses and legumes should be
harvested for silage. M. F. Clarke
of the Agassiz, B.C. Experimen-
tal Farm, says that in general,
mixtures in which red clover
predominates should be har-
vested for silage as soon as
bloom becomes evident through-
out the field. Waiting until
blooming is complete will in-
crease tonnage slightly but at
the expense of palatability and
nutritive quality.
• • •
If the _,legume content.. of a
field is low then the stage to cut
will be r' - `ermined by the
grasses. The ideal stage is at
time of heading, to obtain good
quality with satisfactory yield.
Delaying harvest until .,bloom
will sacrifice quality, although
palatability will remain fair. Cut-
ting grass when seed is formed
will lower both nutritive value
and palatability considerably.
• • •
Storage procedure is another
important aspect of forage man-
agement. Immature grasses and
legumes; while high in quality,
present a storage problem be-
cause of their very high mois-
ture content. This is particularly
true when tower silos are used.
Wilting in the swath to a mois-
ture content of 65-75 per cent
before storing is quite effective.
However, when storing by the
"direct cut" method, considera-
tion might be given to the use
of a conditioner.
• • •
Various conditioners have been
tried at the Experimental Farm
over the past three seasons. Ex-
cellent results have been ob-
tained from the use of dried beet
pulp added at the rate of 70-100
pounds per ton of fresh cut for-
age. Initial cash outlay for beet
pulp Is quite high but this is
offset in part by the fact that
70-75 per cent of the beet pulp
is recovered when the silage 1s
fed.
• • •
Sodium bisulphite added at the
rate of 8 pounds per ton to early
cut legume silage will ensure
a pleasant smelling silage. Cost
of this material at the recom-
mended rate is in the neighbour-
hood of one dollar per ton. This
chemical does not in any way
increase feeding value and man-
ufacturer's' directions for its
application should be followed
closely.
• • •
Silage conditioners are not re-
quired when using horizontal or
bunker type silos. In such silos
high moisture content of forage
serves as an aid to rapid air
exclusion.
• • •
In a four-year study with beef
steers on permanent pasture at
the Central Experimental Farm,
Ottawa, worthwhile higher ani-
mal gains per • acre were' obtain-
ed by adjusting the rate of
stocking to seasonal flush of pas-
ture than on a fixed rate of
stocking throughout the pasture
season. W. A. Jordan reports that
an extra 87 pounds of animal
gain per acre was obtained by
the adjusted method where 'pas-
tures were stocked to capacity
during the flush of spring growth
and the number of animals re-
duced according to the subse•
quent slower growth. No notice-
able change in the pasture was
observed under either method of
grazing.
• • •
These results indicate that ad-
justed stocking may well be ad-
visable where the highest pos-
sible animal gains per acre. are
desired over a short period of
time. However, it appears that
for growing animals or animals
intended for long keep, it would
not be worthwhile.
• • •
Both the adjusted and fixed
methods of stocking a pasture
have their advantages and dis-
advantages. The main 'advantage
of the adjusted method is that
nearly all of the spring flush of
grass is consumed at a time when
it is most nutritious and thus
greater animal gains per acre
are realized. However, after the
flush of growth, the extra ani-
mals have to be either disposed
of or placed on another pasture
at a time when aftermath of
supplemental annual crops are
not usually available. Stocking
at a smaller fixed rate through-
out the season results in lower
gain per acre. In addition, much
of the spring growth matures
and decreases in nutritive value.
However, this acts as a reserve
during the second half of the
pasture season and thus dis-
penses with the need for supple-
mental pasture.
Girls Married
To Trees
The crippling burden of mar-
rying off a daughter is now te-
]ieved by law in Andhra, India.
A new edict, recently sanctioned
in this state, strictly forbids Hin-
du fathers to provide their
daughters, on marriage, with any
sort of a dowry; even simple, in-
expensive presents are not al-
lowed.
Anyone caught giving or ac•
(epting this former traditional
offering is guilty of a criminal
offence and can be jailed for
six months.
Pr•evIously, widespread obsery
ance of husband -buying practices
imposed great hardship in a
country where the average an
nual income works out at $7S
a head.
Dowries erred always on the
side of generosity, for to offer
something smaller than expec-
tation implied loss of caste and
also degraded one's daughter .
A relatively prosperous Hindi)
owning six acres of land was
expected to contribute at least
$750 to his son-in-law's family.
The gods were supposed to be
angry with those who, because
of their poverty or for any other
reason, kept their daughters
single.' The wretched girls them
selves did not escape punishment.
Because of this, mothers in some
areas quietly killed them at
birth.
In other families, where not
a rupee existed to meet these
crippling dowry demands, the
girl's father would work as a
slave for his son-in-law's family
for a year or so. With three or
four daughters to marry off, the
tnan could be ruined for life,
However unattractive they
were, these girls just had to be
married off. Even though dis-
figured or crippled, they were
not immune,
But to appease their gods and
save themselves from committing
a mortal sin, the' Hindus used to
marry such unwanted girls to
trees. That satisfied the strict
tenets of their caste.
But now, under tht. new re-
forms, it is hoped that all this
will cease, Child marriages will
probably end, too. Formerly,
husbands were cheapest when
bought young. And, having only
the scantiest resources, many
Hindus purchased a man for
their daughter when he was just
a babe in arms.
Rain Of Frogs
When it was officially reported
from Budapest not long ago that
many tiny frogs had rained
down on the city during a freak
whirlwind and thunderstorm,
some people in this country were
either puzzled or sceptical. How
could such a thing happen?
Meteorologists have an answer.
While many stories of living
showers of frogs, fishes and oth-
er creatures are exaggerated, it
is a fact that very strong up-
ward air currents do sometimes
suck up caterpillars, worms,
beetles and so on and then drop
them from a watery sky.
Professor J. Arthur Thomson,
the scientist and naturalist, in-
vestigated the phenomenon and
reported: "There is no doubt
that many different kinds of
creatures, especially aquatic
ones, can be lifted and trans-
ported in a whirlwind and show-
ered down elsewhere."
Naturalist Edwin Way Teale
tells of coming from a hotel is
Chicago in the early 'thirties
after a violent storm which had
lasted for many hours.
"The gutters were running
with water and scattered across
the wet pavement for several
blocks around were tiny silver
minnows," he reported. "No one
could have scattered them by
hand so widely, The only plaus-
ible explanation was that the
area had received a shower of
minnows during the morning
storm."
The list of queer "rains" is
endless. Only cats and dogs seem
to be missing. There have been
"authentic" downpours of snails,
turtles, snakes, mussels, toads,
lizards and sprats.
Sixty-five years ago a dense
cloud was seen over a village in
Cambridgeshire. It burst quite
suddenly and millions of ants
fell down. They covered the
ground almost like a carpet and
the astonished inhabitants crush-
ed thousands at every step.
A nineteenth-century record
shows that a storm of pilchards
fell on Glamorgan in 1859, hazel
nuts in Dublin in 1863, hay in
Monkstown in 1875, snails in
Redruth in 1886 and caterpillars
at Salins, in the Jura, in 1891.
SAFETY FIRST
Trailing Philadelphia by a run
in the eighth inning, Detroit put
the first two men on base and
then elected to bunt. Ferris
Fain, the daring young Athletic
first sacker, plunged in, grab-
bed • the bunt, and threw to
third. His throw eluded Pete
Suder and the runner scored the
tying run standing up.
"Darn it, Ferris!" sputtered
Connie Mack when the A's came
into the bench. "I don't want
you ever to try that play again!"
Most of Mack's employees
would have sat down and sulk-
ed. Not the high-spirited Fain
"What did you want me to do
with the ball?" he bellowed.
"Eat it!"
"Well, by golly!" Mack yelled
right back. "It'd be a whole lot
safer in your mouth!"
IINDAY SCllOPI
LESSON
By Rev. R. Barclay Warren
B.A., 8.1)
A Spokesman for God
1 Samuel 3:10-20,
Memory Selection: Samuel
grew, and the Lord was with
him, and did let none of 1111
words fall to the ground. 1 Sam-
uel 3:19.
Samuel was the last of the
great judges of Israel. His sons
walked not in his ways, but
turned aside after lucre, and
took bribes, and perverted
judgment. (8:3). So the elders of
Israel asked for a king so that
they might be like the other
nations. Samuel, under divine
direction, annointed Saul and
thus began the long period of
monarchial rule in Israel.
The story of Samuel's child-
hood and youth is unique. Be-
fore his conception he was dedi-
cated to God. While still a child
he was taken to serve in the
house of the Lord. Our lesson
tells of the night when God re-
vealed Himself to Samuel in a
personal way. The first message
which he was to convey for God
was one of judgment upon the
family of Eli the priest. Eli's sons
had made themselves vile and
he restrained them not.
It is heartening to everyone
when young people turn from
their .selfish, sinful, pleasure -
seeking ways and become wit-
nesses for the Lord Jesus Christ.
One is not so surprised whet the
aged turn to thoughts of God. So
often youth forget God. Solomon
said, "Remember now thy Cre-
ator in the days of thy youth."
Ecclesiastes 12:1. Samuel lived a
great and fruitful life. Though
Saul became king, Samuel was
still a spokesman for God. Oa
the day of the coronation Sam-
uel said to the people, "God for-
bid that I should sin against the
Lord In ceasing to pray for you:
but I will teach you the good
and the right way," He coun-
selled King Saul and repri-
manded him when he sinned.
He anointed David to be his
successor.
Saul, before •hs last and fate-
ful battle went to the witch of
Endor and asked her to brim
Samuel from the dead. The
witch was astounded at what
she saw and cried with a iota
voice. She knew then that the
inquirer was none other than
King Saul who years before had
ordered the destruction of those
who practised witchcraft. Ones
more Samuel was spokesman foi
God. He said that Saul and his
sons would die on the morrow
and Israel would be defeated.
The influence of Samuel's lift
is still counting for good.
Some women don't park a cal
- they abandon it.

Another big week -end
coming up?
Yes, a summer week -end can mean a lot -of fun for you,
and your family. But it ]Weans a lot of other things
too—niany more cars on the highway, many more
drivers in a hurry to start their week -end or to get
home again. It can also mean many more accidents
and more patients for hospital emergency wards. If
you're taking the family away for the week -end in
your car, be sensible about it. Watch your speed.
Avoid impatience. Drive so that you and your family
—and the otherdrivers you meet on the road—arrive
alive. When you're on tho road,- always drive at a
speed that will enable you to stop in the distance
between you and the car ahead. At night, drive at tho
speed that will enable you to stop within headlight

"Dear Anne Hirst: When my
sweetheart was ordered over-
seas recently, he wanted us to
get married immediately. We
bought the rings, and made ar-
rangements with our pastor A
few days later he called up and
said to forget it; he wanted a
real honeymoon and there wasn't
time for it!
"The other day he wrote and
said he wants to end our engage-
ment. I couldn't believe it, and
neither will his family. My par-
ents have been so generous that
I can't bear to tell them. I wrote
him and asked if there is another
girl, and he denied it.
"What am I to do? 1 simply
cannot let him go, I love him too
much. Without him, I don't want
to live. I'll do anything to get
him back! If I have to admit we
are through, all my friends will
make fun of me. And how can
I tell my family?
MADGE"
IT IS OVER
* The young man has br..tr^n
• the engagement, and the bit-
• ter truth is you will have to
• accept it. Tell your parents im-
* mediately, they have the right
• to know; they will be as
• shocked as his people are, but
• at him, not at you, They, with
• your pastor, will help you
• through these sorry days.
• Why admit you were jilted?
• Explain to your friends that
• you have changed your mind,
* and would rather not talk
o about it. It is as simple as that.
• Whether another girl is in-
* volved really does not matter.
• There is no getting the boy
* back, and a girl who respects
• herself will not try. There is
• nothing so impressive as sil-
• ence, so don't write him again;
* it will only annoy him. The
• book is closed, and for good.
• You say you haven't looked
• at another boy since you met
* him. Well, begin to look
• around. Your friends will
• spread the news, and other
• boys you've known will prob-
• ably ask for dates. Don't make
* the mistake of turning them
• down; going out will give you
• less time to mourn, and keep
• you in circulation. Unwelcome
• as the idea is, believe me it
* will lift your spirits after a
• time, and soon you will realize
• that the world must go on and
• you must go with it.
* I am so sorry! Giving up
• your dreams of marrying the
• lad you love is the most pain-

• known. But if you make tit*
* adjustment bravely, and with
• your head high, you will prove
• what you really are — a girl

Proposed Marriage
From The Pulpit
If you find a proposal of mar-
riage in your next package of
cigarettes, don't get alarmed. Ci-
garette manufacturers are taking
steps to end "proposals by pack-
age," the messages dropped into
packs by cigarette factory girls
who plead: "If you're a bachelor,
please write!"
Yet there's more than one way
of snaring a spouse. A worker in
a cardboard box factory knew
there were plenty of budding
brides in a margarine factory
seventeen miles away. So he
dropped a note into one of his
boxes: "Lonely bachelor would
like pen friend."
The pen pals later met and
decided to wed—and one of the
wedding gifts was a box of
margarine.
In Montreal, newlywed cou-
ples always thanked the parson
and little guessed he was yearn-
ing to share their happiness.
Until one day he stood up in
the pulpit and simply announced,
"I'm lonesome, and I want to get
married. If there's any willing
lady present, will she please
stand up?"
The congregation stayed very
quiet. No one rose. But there
were three eligible lar' in the
vestry afterwards.
A northern boy couldn't pro-
pose to his girl because he found
himself too shy to talk to her.
He was better on the telephone,
especially when he found a way
of calling her long-distance
without paying for the calls.
After his seventh free call, po-
lice were waiting outside the
box. He was fined £10 for steal-
ing electricity but had to admit
that he thought the fine worth
it, Love laughed* at the coin
boxes, for the seventh call was
the time he managed to blurt
out his proposal.
Another bride was bagged
during a high dive from the top
hoard at a London swimming
hath. Just as the athletic young
man took off, a girl dived from
a lower hoard. They crashed
head on under water and were
taken to hospital, Their friend -

HltONICLES
R6ERFAitM
We certainly have reason to
be concerned about the present
dry weather but at least we
don't have to worry about grass-
hoppers as farmers do in the
prairie provinces. And believe
me that is something for which
we should be truly thankful
Every few years grain growers
and home gardeners out West
are faced with this deadly men-
ace to their crops—and this year
they are threatened again, No
one, except those who have lived
through such an experience —
as we did — can possibly ima-
gine what a grasshopper plague
can do. Unless controlled they
can clean off a fleld in a few
days leaving it as bare as a
reaper would do. Walk along the
edge of a field of wheat or oats
and a cloud of hoppers rise up
ahead of you.
It would seem that grasshop-
pers have always menaced the
prairie districts even as far back
as the pioneer days. In a history
of the North-West Territory I
came across this notation: "the
summer was favourable and the
fields soon assumed a promising
appearance, but on the 18th July,
1818, the sky suddenly became
darkened by clouds of grasshop-
pers, and as they descended on
the earth in dense swarms they
destroyed every green thing be-
fore them. The settlers managed
to save a little grain, but not a
vegetable was left in the gar-
dens. The same thing hap-
pened again the following year,
and the settlers had to move to
Pembina for the winter, other-
wise they would have died of
starvation."
Well, it was a hundred years
later, almost to the very day,
that Partner and I started farm-
ing on the Saskatchewan prairie.
I think it was the following year
we were almost eaten out by
grasshoppers. An appeal on be-
half of the farmers was made to
the government and as a result
poison bait mixed with sawdust,
bran and molasses was made
available to the f'armer's. This
had to he scattered over the
fields before daylight. I so well
remember Partner loading the
buggy with hundred -pound bags
of bait and starting out for the
fields by 3 o'clock in the morn-
ing. But that was not all. In the
afternoon he had to drive nine
miles with w:r'on and team to
pick up his supply of bait from
the Depot reae y for broadcast•
ing the following mor•ninr be-
fore daybreak. lie managed to
save some of th • crop but the
loss w:u still quite cnnaidcrahle
And apart !rem the financial loss
it wrs a m'serahle ex er'ence
livin , 'nncn't the hoop- is. They
were evrrywh:'i•' Somehow the
would find areas, to the house
and even to the food ready for
the table. And if you were walk-
ing near a field --or even in the
garden—the impact of the crea-
tures would sting your fare as
they flew up and around you
Fortunately science has now de-
veloped a new technique for
dealing with the hoppers — a
DDT preparation mired with
water and sprayed en infr=lid
areas by weed snraye••s rrrm
the ground or by ,n» nC of 1,.11
copters from the air. It is su,,
posed to kill the insects on con-
tact—so here's hoping it works.
And now for news nearer
home. Quite close to where we
are living is the home of a well-
known personality — known to
thousands of women across Can-
ada through the medium of ra-
dio, books and magazine articles.
No less a person than the one
and only Kate Aitken. Yester-
day Mrs. A. entertained mem-
bers of four women's organiza-
tions to a tea at her home in the
Credit Valley, I had been past
the place dozens of times before
but had never quite realized
what a grand spot it is. From
the road it appears just a nice
house among the trees. But drive
up to the house, explore the sur-
roundings on foot and you Im-
mediately realise that Mrs. A. is
first and foremost a woman of
vision. Sometime or other she
must surely have wandered along
the banks of the Credit River
and realised what a wonderful
spot it would be for a country
residence. At that time there was
one house on the property, Now
there are two. Mrs, Aitken lives
in one house, a married daugh-
ter and her family in the other
—in what used to be "The Spa."
Mrs, Aitken's beautiful house
is home and office combined, tut
such an office! She calls it "the
Green Room." One wall is en-
tirely of glass overlooking an
expanse of trees, lawn and
ower beds. A recessed area is
obviously strictly for the busi-
ness of typing, dictating and
composing. Another recess is a
sort of reading -room with a log -
burning fireplace, And of course,
there are all kinds of books and
bookshelves. I can't begin to de-
scribe the other rooms—all very
lovely, furnished with charm
and functional simplicity. From
every window there is a magni-
ficent view. From the patio, steps
lead down to a restful spot
among the trees; more steps to
a rustic bridge overlooking the
Credit River, with great oaks
and elms towering overhead.
There are many equally beauti-
ful spots along the Valley of
the Credit but it took a woman
with Kate Aitken's imagination
to realise what a home could he
amid such surroundings. It would
also require what It takes to
run such a place! But the vision
came first. That is what really
counts.

Q. Is it considered In good
taste to mall out handwritten
announcements of a marriage?
A. This is quite all right if
the bride or her mother wish to
take the time and trouble to
write thein. However, if the
mailing list is large, It would
seem that the stereotyped en.
graved announcements would be
preferable.
Q. Is it all right for n casual

How The Queen
Selects Dresses
When the Queen chooses new
dresses, whit. colours does she
favour? It is well known that
greens have always attracted
her, but she is Also fond of so-
phisticated new colours, a Court
fashion correspondent states.
The Queen likes, for instance,
orange, coral, lilac, sapphire blue
and mimosa yellow. Yellow has
long been her favourite colour
for sunshine fashion. On her
Commonwealth tour in 1953, six
of the twenty or more outfits she
wore were in yellow. They var-
ied from a sharp, acid yellow to
a deep buttercup and the loyely
pale shade of an organza party
dress.
Blue is another dress colour
which clearly fascinates the
Queen. On her visit to Nigeria
in 1956 she chose clear colours,
including many blues and pinks
and a lot of white because of
the bright sunshine,
When it comes to choosing
clothes, the Queen, it is believed,
has always been influenced by
her mother. Back in her child-
hood days as Princess Elizabeth,
she was 'hailed in the United
States as "the world's most at-
tractively dressed girl.”
Details of her latest frocks
were cabled to America to be
mass - produced. Everywhere,
from New York to San Francisco,
small girls wore short puff -shoul-
dered frocks of the type favoured
by the little Princess.
One New York store, I remem-
ber, cane out with a prominent
advertisement: "Princess Eliza-
beth frocks, inspired by the
sweetheart of the British Empire.
Every mother will want her lit-
tle girl to look as appealing and
as cute as the little Princess —
style arbiter in her own right.”
The dresses worn by the Queen
during her early spring trip to
Holland this year were a tre-
mendous success with the Neth-
erlands queen and her two
daughters. Dress experts prais-
ed the Queen's exquisitely
groomed appearance and mar-
velled at the smartness of her
gowns.
It has always been a tradition
in the Royal Family to avoid
the ultra -fashionable, the extra-
vagant and the exotic in dress.
ASKS DIVORCE — British -born

either, and there is a good reason
• for this. The small close -fitting
hats she prefers leave her face
completely visible from all angles
—a fact that women spectators
at royal functions are 'llw s
quick to appreciate,
Her dresses at such highspots
of fashion as Ascot are always
just the thing for the occasion,
and bring forth admiration from
everyone who sees her, In such
events she must be ever more
discerning than usual, for not
only must she be fashionable but
once again also has to cater for
the public. •
FIREMEN FORGOT
The Tokyo fire brigade were
half -way through their weekly

fire trucks to the scene of the
fire and were almost there —
when someone remembered that .
both the hose nozzles were back
at the fire station being polished.

Safe -Crackers
Burglars recently attacked a
safe in an office in Tampa,
Florida, and after a good deal
of trouble blasted the door off.
Then they discovered that the
combination to open the safe was
written on the outside all the
time!
It is dangerous to explode a
safe in a confined space but a
London gang of gelignite burg-
lars took that risk in the offices
of a mineral water firm, When
the smoke cleared the gang
dashed forward eagerly—to find
only a few old ledgers and some
insurance cards,
Another mob which used too
much explosive blew the safe to
pieces—and all the money that
was in it.
Even legal safe -openers have
to be careful. After a fierce fire
at their offices a firm recovered
a hot safe, Keys would not open
it so they called in a man with
a drill.
As soon as he had made a ho,e
flames burst out of it, During
the fire, the safe had become red
hot right through. Immediately
8 hole was made in it and air
reached the interior, the contents
burst into flame.
Cheap Dollars
The jobless worker, collecting
his unemployment insurance in
BO -cent dollars, is getting a t1•a•
gic lesson on the meaning of
inflation,
This money is not a dole, It
isn't charity or a gift. It truly
is insurance which is the work-
er's legal due. It comes from a
fund built up by regular pay-
ments from employees — money
the worker might otherwise have
received in wages,
The national average of week-
ly payments is $30. Such an in-
come would have pinched, even
when the system was set up a
little over 20 years ago. But it
would have been at least enough
to tide a family over between jobs.
The cheapened dollar has turn-
ed this insurance into a mere
pittance. The worker who de-
pended on it is threatened with
the degradation of being forced
on relief to feed his family.
Labor unions in particular, it
deems to us, should think about
Ws before they hurry to indorse
the quick cures for unemploy-
ment and business slump, now
hysterically suggested. -• Birm-
gham (Ala.) Post -Herald.
Pulling Strings
To Keep Fit
Tongue - tied children, and
others suffering from nervous
troubles, stammering, lisping
and excessive shyness, are find-
ing a cure for their afflictions by
playing with puppets.
Manipulating the figures, the
children become completely ab-
sorbed, their imagination is set
free, self-consciousness removed,
and healing influences go to
work. Moreover, if the puppets
themselves play heroic parts, or
show a strong personality, then
something of that personality is
transmitted to the children.
This curative power has been
brought to a fine art by Mr. S.
W. Salter, a master at Parkhurst
School, Tottenham. He found
that a timid child soon becomes
self-confident when put in charge
of a fine robust character • like
St. George. In time, such associa-
tions kill any inferiority com-
plex.
Mr. Slater encourages his pu-
pils not only to help in making
and manipulating the puppets,
but to create their theatre, de-
vise lighting and scenery and
even write plays for the mini-
ature performers.
At another London school,
11 -year-old Vivien Goldstein has
had success in writing puppet
plays. She turns out her scripts
at home, using a home-made
theatre and puppets of her own
to work out her scenes before
writing them.

Murder On Police Station Steps
Miss Esylt Newbery, lecturer
and world traveler, has seen
some strange sights on her wan-
derings. In primitive Albania
she saw a woman carrying a
heavy wooden cradle containing
a baby on her head, on her back
was a big bundle of wood, in
her hands a distaff — and as she
walked along she was busily
spinning!
In the middle of a broad high-
way she saw two countrywomen
in picturesque costume sitting
chatting, with cars, bicycles, ox-
carts, omnibuses, horsemen swirl-
ing past them. Feeling like a
gossip they had just squatted
down oblivious of all the traffic!
Miss Newbery, who writes
vividly of her nomad life in
"Parson's Daughter", also saw
something of Albania's vendetta
feuds, for while she was in •
Tirana an avenger killed his
enemy on the steps of the local c
police station.
If he were hanged his tribe.'
would at once try to level up the.
score so his house and all it(
contents were burned down be.
fore his eyes. Only by leaving
him homeless with the long,
hard -winter approaching -would
he wonder if the game was'real-
ly worth while. This form of
punishment Miss Newbery says,
has done more to ,end bloody
feuds than any other,
In Vladivostok where she
taught a Russian woman English,
she had to go to a doctor for
treatment after being stung by
a sting -ray, while bathing. When
he left the consulting room to
make up a prescription she ask-
ed her Russian friend what his
fee would be.
"Oh," she replied "you need
not pay him unless you like there
is no settled fee, and he won't
demean himself to ask you for
money,"
"Then how does he live?"
queried Miss Newbery.
"Well, most people pay but
it would be very insulting for
you to give it to him personally.
You must hide it somewhere
about the room and he will find
it after we have gone."
So she hid a ten -rouble note
in a brass jar on his desk, then,
when he carne back with the
medicine just shook hands,
thanked him, and left,
Miss Newbery was strolling
along a Vladivostok street when
out of the door of a house came
what looked like a narrow white
punt with deep sides, carried on
the head of a small boy who was
completely hidden by it. Then
came a robed priest, singing
loudly, attended by two boy at-
tendants, also singing and carry-
ing lighted candles. Behind these
came a shallow coffin borne
shoulder -high by six men in
dress suits.
Seated in it allnost upright,
with hands folded, was the
corpse of a very handsome old
lady. -
Family mourners followed, all
in masses of crppe, the men in
tall hats with long crepe streams
ers; then a choir of girls singing
a dirge, When the procession
reached the street, friends and
neighbors joined it.
At the cathedral the coffin
was placed on a bier, a woman
stood by it with a handkerchief
to keep the flies off the old lady's
face. After the funeral service
all the mourners moved round
.. tbsa rpse, each one kissing her I.../
cheek,
'�e• was then taken to the
'hyard and lowered into the
r`;v_e; the mourners passing in
1 11 ;orderly file to take a last
1 tftik;Eat her sitting so, calmly
down below. Sinally, the great
lid that resembled a punt was
lowered on to it, and the Rus-
sian funeral _was over.
"Our ways with Death," her
Russian friend explained later,
"are so much better than yours,
for we keep our dear ones with
us right up to the end."
In Japan Mis Newbery saw
quaint notices like these:
"Fur coats are made here from
any skins, ours or yours."
"Here you can get dental
plumbing by the latest meth-
odists,"
"You are not allowed to cont -
mit suicide here! If you do, you
will be punished with the utmost
penalty, of the law,"
At Kodzu she saw a whole
family—mother, father and three
children — returning from the
public bath without a stitch of
clothing on! When she herself
went to bath, a coolie was sent
with her to wash her back, She
found six baths there without
partitions and at the door her
innkeeper, Fakuda, arguing hot.
ly with two young men who
also wanted to bath at the same
time.
"I very clever man!' he ex-
plained when at last they gave
way. "I tell them English lady
very peculiar, always takes six
baths at once!" It took her ten
minutes to persuade the coolie to
leave without washing her back,
but immediately she had finished
bathing he was back again and
she wondered how he knew that
she was ready to leave!

""rP`°rices`°'"""°""' CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING
Ca
It is heartening that the "You
Auto Buy Now" campaign, tried
in a number of American cities,
seems to be successful. Cleve-
land, for one, hes succeeded in
increasing sales in' the last few
months with this campaign. And
now it is trying to stimulate sales
still further by putting uniform
price ceilings on new cars. This
might be a model for manufac-
turers and dealers throughout
the country to follow.
Turn back the files of The
Courant for 25 years to May,
1933, Thanks to the depression
there were few automobile ad-
vertisements. Yet those that did
appear differed from the present
ones, and not only because ad-
vertising techniques have been
refined since then. In one ad the
most visible thing after the pic-
ture .of the "new and larger
Essex Terraplane," was the price
in conspicuous letters: "$505 for
the coupe, f.o,b. Detroit," Again,
all models of tfie Willys were
Identified with a fixed price for
each, And the "new cushion -bal-
anced" Chevrolet 6 could "now
be bought for from $445 to $585."
To these free -on -board prices, of
course, one had to add freight
and extras. But they too were
easily accessible and the same
to all.
Why is it that a fair and uni-
versal f.o.b. price never appears
in the automobile ads any more?
The one thing that has distin-
guished American merchandis-
ing from Oriental haggling, and
that has made us successful
businessmen, is the fixed price.
Somewhere along the line we
have lost it as far as cars are
concerned. Of course much of the
fault lies with the public, since
we love to boast we got $400
more on the trade-in than the
old bus was worth. Our grammar
school children could tell us that
most of the $400 came not out
of shaving profit but out of the
price pack, Nor is it easy to find
out just what automatic trans-
mission, power brakes, power
steering, undercoating, white
walls, power windows, autronic
eyes, and what have you cost,
The dealers have grown tired
of this, and favor the bill pro-
posed by Senators Monroney and
Thurmond to suggest a list price
for each model. President Eisen-
hower supports the idea, It could
be if we got out of the O:i:;atal
bazaar and returned to the sim-
ple habit of just buying a car of
known value, with the price the
same from Hartford to San Diego,
we would sell ourselves Inure
cars.—Hartford Courant.
New Faces Send
Crooks Straight
Women hospital patients are
being given facial massage and
beauty treatment as a cure for
melancholia. Such patients tend
to let their appearances go. They
develop all too quickly sagging
chins, crow's feet and forehead
wrinkles, while their hair be-
comes lank and listless. But after
treatment their self-respect re-
turns.•
The patient who was once full
of misery and despair acquires a
new pride in her appearance
and her health improves mar-
vellously. That goes for men, too.
Such , excellent results have
been reported of beauty treat-
ment experiments at Goodmayes
Hospital for Nervous Diseases
that other hospitals have now
decided to adopt a similar tech-
nique. •
St. John's Hospital, near Ayles-
bury; the Mendip Hospital,
Welts; and Coney Hill and Hor-
ton Road Hospitals, Gloucester,
will all soon introduce beauty
treatment.
Two nurses from each of these
hospitals are now being trained
in a Bond Street beauty parlour.
This altering of faces as a cure
for old ills and encouragement
to restarting life, is even affect-
ing convicts in Texas, There,
prisoners, just before release,
are being given the benefits of
plastic surgery.
This greatly assists their re-
habilitation problems, and re-
moves old prejudices hampering
their return to society.
SMUGGLERS' PLAN
WAS WALKOVER
If you want to smuggle some-
thing past the customs the best
way is to do it openly, At least
this is how 10,000 army boots
for men were smuggled past the
very vigilant French authorities
in Algeria before they tumbled
to it.
Army boots for men are strict.
Jy forbidden and customs have
strict orders to watch out that
none go past them for rebels.
But boys' boots are freely a! -
lowed through.
For a year smugglers passed
boots across the frontier by the
simple expedient of marking
men's boots with boys' sizes. It
required an alert French officer
recently to see that boots marked
"3" were in fact size 8!
Obey the traffic signs — they
are placed there for YOUR
