Several of the Township Federations
of Agriculture are planning the dates
for their annual meetings. I hope
they will keep in mind the dates f ):
ilia O.F.A. Annual which is being heid

It is a busy time and with only orte.
man on so many farms it is difficult
to ettrnd the three day Provincial An-
euaa, However it is an important meet-
ing and each township should send at
least one representative. The County
Annuni is being planned for November
26th and will follow the sante program
as in recent years.

Mrs. Adith Storr, secretary for On-
tr.rio Farm Forum, attended and gave
o'it organizational material. She point-
ed out that TV groups should be smal-
ler than radio groups since everyone
needs to view the program. This will
'shorten the distances to be travelled

4 to 6 families should be quite satis-
faetory, '

there unconscious.
When she came to, her bicycle
had gone, and she realized that
she was the victim of nothing
more sinister than a bicycle
thief.
That was only one of the many
adventures encountered by this
highly qualified nurse, now forty-
three years old and a. keen Red
Cross worker, in twenty years of
delivering babies all over the
world,
For eight of those years, she
worked for SSAFA (Soldiers',
Sailors' and Airmen's Families
Association), attending Service
wives in every part of the globe.
Sometimes, living in guarded
barracks or at isolated stations
far from home, the mothers -to -
be become extra nervous.
There was one girl who, walk-
ing outside her quarters, accom-
panied by a native maid, met a
snake slithering menacingly
across her path, With a shriek,
she threw up her arms and froze
in her tracks, But the coloured
girl, more used to jungle life,
stepped forward and with a
shrill cry sent the startled snake
scuttling into the undergrowth.
Even so, it took all Miss Pet-
titt's skill to nurse the shaken
mother -to -be back to normal.
While caring for R.A.F. wives
in Ceylon, Miss Pettit saw the
Procession of a Hundred Ele-
phants as it set out from Kandy,
This traditional religious cere-
mony pays homage to the Tem•
ple of the Tooth,
As the elephants, richly adorn-
ed in fineries, lumber along the
ceremonial route, Kandy dancers
enliven the whole night of fes-
tivity with their colourful cos-
tumes.
Spellbound by this magical
display, Miss Pettit auddendy
became acutely aware of the fact
That the animals taking part in
e procession were covered in

Se consoled by, the ancient
Maxim, attributed to Bellarmine,
a Catholic saint:
"We shall have Heaven," said
be, "to reward us for our suf-
ferings, but these poor creatures
(fleas and all odious vermin)
have nothing but the enjoyment
of their present life."
While on a roving commission
through India and Pakistan, she
also visited Kashmir and fell in
love with the simple, warm-
hearted people there.
"Hospital patients," she says,
"can't recover unless they have
their own sacred domestic ani-
mals in the wards with them.
"Many like their relatives to
attend also, so the wards need
to be roomy.
"Whenever it is cold, most of
the people go about hugging
charcoal -primed wicker baskets
to keep them warm. The women
carry these under their yash-
maks (double veils) and long
flowing robes.
"But this custom has very ob-
vious fire risks, and many Kash-
miris get setterely burned when
the hot coals set light tb their
clothes."
In spite of all warnings, how-
ever, the people cling to their
wicker -basket body -heaters. Now
third-degree burn cases receive
penicillin treatment and fewer
lives are lost than formerly. But
dreadful scars remain,
For eighteen months, Nurse
Pettit served SSAFA in Hong
Kong, helping many a new Bri-
ton into a bizarre Oriental
world.

many Chinese mothers appalled
her, "Many had to use old news-
papers for their children's nap-
pies," she says, "They were too
poor to afford anything else,"
'And, although holding life
cheap, mothers were still troubled
in some households when thel'
gave birth to girls.
Formerly, a system of female
Infanticide was practised, To be
rid of their unwanted girl babies,
women had no compunction
about parcelling them up and
throwing them in the river,
Once, while she lived near the
teachers' mess, a Chinese boy
)tushed to her, reporting: "Missie,
cook him vellee sick."
She dashed out to find the man
very ill with haemorrhage and
T,B.
Quickly diagnosing his trou-
bles, she applied the proper
remedies, and a few days later
he was out of danger.
But she was shocked to be told
by one of the mess boys: "Cook,
him no die now, him stay alive
-vellee bad."
In saving his life, she'd actu-
ally disappointed all his Chinese
friends. For, without relatives
and with no one willing to care
for him, the sick cook was con-
sidered a liability and best. got
rid of by being allowed to die.
However, thanks to Nurse Pet -
tit's timely aid, he eventually
regained his health and was able
to look after himself.
Leaving SSAFA's service in
Hong Kong, she travelled by slow
boat to a job in Australia, and
found that the Chinese cargo
boat on which she made the trip
was suspected of complicity in
the opium -smuggling traffic,
The authorities knew there
was opium on board, and went
through everyone's luggage with
a tooth -comb. They found noth-
ing.
But the secret came out when
officials jerked a man out of
the ship's barber chair, And
there, secreted in the carefully
hollowed -out panels of its arms
and legs were packages of deadly
dope.
Before the war, Miss Pettit
worked as a family nurse in
Kenya and Uganda and visited
Leopoldville in the Belgian Con-
go.
There she saw some of the
region's famed pigmy tribesmen.
These little people live mainly
in trees. They craved for salt,
had never seen soap and water;
and many suffered from beri-
beri, a vitamin shortage which
gave them distended stomachs,
"I went on safari with an
elephant hunting party," says
Miss Pettit. "Whenever anyone
stubbed out his cigarette with
pigmies around, the little people
dashed for the butt and delight-
edly ate it!"
She was the only woman in the
party, and when they'd shot an
especially big' tusker, the Bel-
gian game warden gave her the
tail as a souvenir,
"I treasured it, too. But on the
,three-day trip back to my nurs-
ing station, the tail became
'alive.' I found it full of maggots
and had to discard it."
In Cyprus, before the present
emergency, Nurse Pettit was in
a car crash and landed in hos-
pital with concussion and a
fractured ankle. But she recov-
ered quickly.
During a six months' "break"
in the United States, she visited
Mexico, was fascinated by the
Pyramid of the Sun and other
pre -Aztec memorials, but had
her wallet stolen twice. Once
she caught a bronze -faced child
in the very act of filching it.
Worse befell her in California,
where thieves "lifted" her entire
baggage, including all her cloth-
ing . and souvenirs of travels
ranging from North Cape to
Hiroshima.
But Miss Pettit makes light of
such trials. Emergencies just
can't shake her, whether they
are those of other women or
blows of fate.
A resourceful, mettlesome
character, her latest undertaking
is not about babies, but a six -
months' coursein floristry.

TINFAIM FRONT
Vegetable - seed growing is
certainly not a case of letting
nature take its own course. In-
stead, it is a highly technical
industry, much more so today,
when the wants and desires of
the housewife regarding the
vegetables she cooks and serves
are known more accurately than
at any time in the past.
* * *
California is the heart of the
U.S, vegetable -seed -growing in-
dustry because of its rich soil
and dry autumn, when the seed
is harvested. But before the
seed crops are grown for com-
mercial plantings by farmers,
the various strains of vegetables
must be scientifically bred by
cross -hybridization, single plant
selection; and in other modern
: scientific ways, so that the end
product can be harvested for
ultimate consumption as fresh,
• canned, or frozen vegetables,
* • *
Take peas, for instance,
If the variety is for the fresh
shipper or 'the housewife who
wishes to shell the peas per-
: sonally, the crop must mature
over an extended period so that
: the fresh shipper always has a
supply to move to market.
To accommodate the canner
01 freezer, the entire crop must
ripen all at one time so the
processor can get it all har-
vested and packed in one eco-
nomical operation over a period
of only a few days.
* * •
Hence the seedsmen must de-
velop different strains to meet
differentrequirements, so that
the housewife gets what she
wants in appearance, whether
she is opening a can, carton, or
individual. pea pod, String beans
and lima beans must also bo
bred for the same qualifications
es peas, * * *
Another important point the
seed grower and breeder must
. keep in mind is that all these
vegetables must be adaptable to
machine harvesting, as "stoop
labor" is not only sky-high in
price compared to earlier days
but also increasingly scarce.
• .* *
A very few years ago carrots
were shipped in bunches with
their tops on. Now, because of
high freight rates, the shipping
of the tops which .the•housewife
cuts off anyway is dispensed
with and the carrots shipped in
cellophane bags. Hence a differ-
ent shape of carrot must be bred,
* • *
The standard for canned to-
matoes is much more stringent
than a few years back, A much
higher quality tomato is de-
manded for this purpose, with
smooth skins, small cores, and
less seeds than previously. Re-
quirements for green wrap to-
matoes also have changed,
* • *
Spinach is losing ground to
broccoli, the vegetable ideal for
freezing because it does not re-,
quire the severe washing needed
for spinach, is easily handled,
and retains its color, Here again
freezing types are different from
those that are cut and shipped,
fresh.* * * -
These are only a few of the
niany changes in the seed -grow-
ing industry, which today is
a combination of laboratory,
greenhouses, seed beds, cleaning
mills, grading machines, condi-
tioning tunnels, and automatic
packaging lines. In other words,
the seed breeders on one hand
must have seed that will provide
the product the housewife wants,
while their merchandisers must
package the seed in convenient,
attractive airtight pontafners for
the convenience and protection
of the ultimate seed buyer.
• • •
Not only ars the seed fields
patrolled and the off types up-
rooted before they spread their
pollen and contaminate the har-
vest, but great ear. and atten-
tion must be given to various
arieties of the same' species so
they will not cross-pollinate
from field to field, The isola-
tion problem is a matter of
miles in many cases.
* *
Harvesting is mechanized as
far as possible. Windrowers cut
radishes, cabbage, broccoli, and
other items and windrow the
plants so that after drying, a
moving pickup threshing ma-
chine can handle them. Garden
peas and beans are mechanically
harvested. Vine seeds such as
cantaloupes, cucumber, squash,
and watermelon are picked by
hand but carried by a conveyor
belt to a machine which auto-
matically crushes, washes, and
extracts the seeds, dries them
and ejects the pulp and rind.
Lettuce is threshed and' bagged
by machine in one operation.
* • *
In cleaning, the seeds pass.
over shakers that bounce off the
dirt, rocks, and other foreign
material. Other shakers separate
the seeds by weight, shape, or
size,

Sneezers' Battle
Still Continues
Unlike the 17 million Cana-
dians and Americans who suffer
violent reactions to ragweed,
roses, raspberries, nail polish,
antibiotics, or a host of other
substances, Dr. Frederick G,
Germuth Jr, hasn't a single al-
lergy. Yet even as a medical stu-
dent, this freckled red-haired
pathologist was fascinated by
the enigmatic way in which al-
lergies hit one out of ten Ame-
ricans and leave the other nine
alone. A few months ago, the 36 -
year -old doctor - now one of
the nation's top allergy re-
searchers - left his teaching job
at Johns Hopkins Medical
School to take charge of an al-
lergy -research project at Memo-
rial Hospital in Charlotte, N.C.
Last month, as his new under-
taking Was set fully in motion,
Dr. Germuth had specific ob-
jectives squarely in his sights,
"My particulllr interest," he
said, "la the relationship of
allergies to other diseases -
rheumatoid arthritis, for in-
stance. Allergies and many dis-
eases overlap, We are trying to
nd out how they differ. But
most of all, we will try to find
the mechanism by which allergy
works."
:To achieve this aim, Dr. Ger-
muth has been furnished with a
fully equipped seven -room la-
boratory at Memorial Hospital.
He and his six - man staff
(whose salaries will be paid by
a grant from the National Insti-
tutes of Health) will study the
reactions of rabbits and guinea.
pigs to allergy -producing sub-
stances (antigens). Like humans,
these animals produce an anti-
body to antigens. The reaction
releases a powerful chemical,
histamine. Most researchers be-
lieve that allergic reactions re-
sult when histamine damages
blood vessels in the skin (pro-
ducing hives), the mucous mem-
branes (hayfever) or causes
spasms in the muscles of the
bronchial tubes (asthma).
Dr, Germuth has, however,
already found some important
flaws in this explanation. "Our
recent experiments at Johns
Hopkins," he explained, "show-
ed that marked damage to the
clear. cornea of the eye may be
produced by allergy, even
though this tissue has no blood
vessels.
"Our work also has strongly
suggested that, contrary to cur-
rent medical concepts, antigen
and antibody need not meet in
the body to produce an allergic
reaction. Some other factor or
factors must, therefore, play a
role. We think that another pro-
tein in the body, called comple-
ment, is also necessary." First
goal of the project: "To deter-
mine if complement is really
necessary, and then find out
what it is and where it is made.
The need of this sort of basic
research was stressed a few
weeks ago by U.S. Surgeon Gen-
eral Leroy E. Burney. "Allergic
diseases," said Dr. Burney, "are
only beginning to receive the
research attention they deserve."

IIOAY SCIIOOL
LESSON
By Rev. R. B. Warren, B,A., B,1),
The Baptism of. Jesus
Luke 3: 15-22
Memory Selection: Then said 1,
Lo I come . , . to do thy will,
U God. Ilebrews 10:7,
John was a humble man. Ho
came to prepare the way for
Jesus of whom he said, "One
mightier than I, cometh, tho
latchet of whose shoes I am not
worthy to unloose." His baptism
uas of less significance than the
baptism which Jesus would
give; the baptism with the Holy
Ghost and with fire, We can
readily see why. John felt un-
worthy to baptize Jesus. The
superiority of Jesus was con-
firmed after His baptism by the
descent upon Him of the 'Holy
Ghost as a dove and the voice
from heaven, saying "Thou art
my beloved Son; in thee I alit
well pleased." It was a most
impressive induction service, In
accepting baptism at the hands
01 John He approved of John
and his work. For Him baptism
did not symbolize the cleaning
away of sin for He knew no
sin. Rather it signified His being
set apart for the great work
that He was to do.
Jesus baptized His, disciples
with the Holy Ghost on the day
of Pentecost, ten days after His
ascension in heaven, By this
baptism He purified their hearts
(Acts 15:9) and endued them
with power to become witnesses.
(Acts 1:8). No more do we see
the carnal ambition as shown
by James and John in their de-
sire to have seats on the right
and left hand of Jesus in His
kingdom, Nor do we see the
vindictive spirit as when these
same brothers asked if thqv
should call fire from heaven to
consume the inhospitable Sa-
maritans. Nor Is there that ex-
treme sectarian spirit as shown
by John when he said to Jesus,
"Master, we saw one casting out
devils in thy name; and we fot•
bade him, because he followeth
not with us." Luke 9:46-56.
Water baptism is an ordinance
and should be observed through-
out the Christian Church. It does
not change the heart but it
symbolizes that God can take
away the guilt and pollution of
sin. The baptism with the Holy
Ghost .is a gift for believers. All
the outer signs present at Pente-
cost may not accompany the
receiving of the Gift but when
He comes He will purify the
heart and strengthen us to be
witnesses.

Memory Lapse
Saves Girl
They met for the first time on
a sun -soaked beach and soon
fell head over heels in love,
Two months later, the hand-
some young engineer.and the at -
.tractive typist went to a regis-
ter office and gave notice of
their August wedding.
The young man gave his full
name, address, age and occupa-
tion, and the registrar then turn-
ed to the girl,
She hesitated, looking sud-
denly embarrassed. I've forgot-
ten my name," she confessed,
She really had. For some lime
she had been experiencing minor
lapses of memory and the ex-
citement had made her forget
her own name, although she,
remembered her address.
Her fiance came to the rescue.
The pair made a joke of the in-
cident, "It was so silly of me,"
smiled the girl,
But a week after their honey-
moon, while out shopping, the
young bride suddenly forgot her
surname when ordering some
goods to be delivered at their
new home,
When her husband was told, he
insisted on her seeing a doctor,
who pronounced that she was a
victim of anrnesia. Luckily, he
said, her case was not serious,
Treatment and . rest cured her
and she has had no recurrence
of her strange fits of forgetful-
ness.
Love and money worries
sometimes lead to temporary
loss of memory, say psycholo-
gists.
sychoLrgists. Every year a number of
people fall victims to some kind
of mind amnesia, but it is rarely
serious.
Women have been known to
lose their memories the day be -
tore a marriage they did not
want. In one instance, an im-
pressionable girl was wooed by
a handsome but unscrupulous
man.
"His kisses are wonderful, but
somehow I vaguely mistrust him,
although we're going to wed to-
morrow," she told her girl friend,
"What's his job and where
does he come from?" asked the
friend.
The girl could not remember,
although the man had told her.
And she suddenly realized that
this temporary lapse of mem-
ory was nature's device for pro-
tecting her against herself.
The man, after all, she re -
11 e c t e d, was practically a
stranger and she suddenly began
to feel afraid of him. This feel-
. ing became so intense later that
evening that she rang him up
and to his astonishment called
their wedding oft.
A week later the man she had
so nearly married was arrested
for embezzlement and It was re.
vealed during his trial that he
was also a bigamist.
Yes, time and again a faulty
memory has proved to be a
strange safety signal. A Mis-
souri man,head buyer for
y a large
firm, reached for his telephone
one day to place a large order
that had been under discussion
for several weeks,
As he lifted the receiver he
realized he had forgotten the
name of the man he was trying
to ring and the name of his firm.
This strange forgetfulness
made him put the phone back
and start thinking again about
the wisdom of placing the order.
He realized that all along he had
been afraid of the deal, but had
allowed his friendship with the
other man to warp his business
judgment.
"That moment of forgetting
saved my firm thousands of dol-
1,u•s," he told a reporter.
The queer absent-mindedness
we call amnesia often lasts no
more than a few hours Many
people recover their memory
through some trivial incident.
A piano teacher who nad for-
gotten who he was remembered
Lis identity when he heard
someone playing Beethoven's
"Moonlight Sonata," one of his
favourite pieces of music,
An ex -soldier's lost memory
was restored by his being struck
cn the head by a golf ball and
knocked unconscious.
Some years ago a man walk -
cd into a Yorkshire police sta-
tion with loss of memory, When
hypnotized, he told a doctor that
his fiancee had just died and
that he was also worried because
a shop he kept was not paying
He now recalled that he had
put his fiancee's photograph in
his pocket and cycled to the
coast, and then walked up to
Flamborough Head, where he
had often walked with her. Ha
remembered that he had ex-
pected in some way to meet her
there, but when he found he
was alone he went to the police.
This case 'illustrates another
striking feature about people
who temporarily lose their mem-
ory. When they go wandering
they almost always go back to
some place with happy memor-
ies.
Famous people have been
known to suffer odd lapses of
memory. The Irish poet George
Moore once went to a party at
which a girl sang the lovely
tong, "Believe me, if all those
er.dearing young charms."
Moore listened to it with ob-
sious pleasure and then, turn-
ing to his host, said: "What fas-
cinating words. Can you tell me
who wrote them?"
His host looked at him „in-
credulously. "Surely you are jok-
ing?" he said. "You wrote them!"
Moore was so shocked by this
revelation of his forgetfulness
that he burst into tears,
Odd Pickings
On The Beach
At Falmouth, Cornwall, a
young typist on holiday discov-
ered a collection of sodden pa-
pers at low tide. She was about
to throw them away when she
noticed an address just legible
in the margin. More as a joke
than anything else, she took the
papers back to her home, dried
them, and posted them back to
their owner.
The. papers, it appeared, were
the script for a BBC programme.
In return for her trouble the
young typist received a cash re-
ward and an invitation to tell
her story -on the radio.
Then there was the strange
case of George Lee, on holiday
near Bude, Cornwall. He was
camping with his brother on the
cliff, and had gone to collect
driftwood to bridge a muddy
patch in the cliff -top path, One
piece caught his eye, but when
he tried to Iift it the timber
would not budge.
Being a determined sort of
chap, he called his brother. To-
gether they heaved and tugged,
and as the timber was still stuck
fast in the sand they began to
dig with a child's wooden spade.
Eventually they unearthed a
packing case that had fallen
overboard from a cargo ship.
They found that the case con-
tained 700 oil -skin capes, valued
at $5 apiece! The manufacturers
were told of the find, and later
the insurance company sent
George a cheque for $100.

FABLE TALKS
date, Andttews.
Food writers attending the
1958 food conference in New
York this year were invited to
the luncheon at which the Pills-
bury Bake -Off prizes were
awarded. We were assigned to
specific tables, and I found only
one person already seated at
Table 43 when I arrived, She
was a woman wearing an or-
chid and that marked her as a
contestant.
Pretty and slender, she wore
a wool dress of the new shade
of bright blue. Her hat, • ear-
rings, and bracelet were also
blue.
• . • •
"Please sit beside me—I need
someone to talk to," she said.
Naturally, she talked about the
Bake -Off 1
"I noticed that, in 500 recipes
I have read recently,. only two
used a dried fruit that our mo-
thers and grandmothers liked so
much—currants," she explained,
"I. decided to experiment and
try to develop something very
good using that fruit.
"I worked on special currant
cup cakes which I tried out on
my husband and our neighbors,
When I felt I had perfected them,
I entered the Pillsbury contest.
They're called Swift Currant
Cakes, and are good either for
dessert or for breakfast."
• • •
Color and movement were all
around us as we talked. The ball
room where the luncheon was
held rapidly filled with several
hundred well-dressed, excited
people finding their seats, en-
joying the boxes where addi-
tional guests were seated, calling
"Hellos" to friends, writes Elea-
nor Richey Johnston in The
Christian Science Monitor.
Acocado stuffed with halibut
flakes and sauce Antoine started
our meal. This was followed by
a tender, juicy filet mignon top-
ped with mushrooms, potatoes
souffle and string beans saute.
By the time dessert came, I had
given my table mate several re-
assuring squeezes of the hand to
help keep calm.
Since it was Pillsbury's 10th
Anniversary of the Bake -Off, a
huge cake of many tiers was car-
ried in to mark the event and a
smaller birthday cake covered
with candles was brought to each
table to be cut and served with
praline ice cream and fresh
strawberries.
• • •
We then learned that the
awards were to be on Art Link -
letter's TV program, so the ex-
citement increased,
He announced that the win-
ning senior contestant's picture
would be thrown on the screen
above the stage. A picture flash-
ed on, the picture of the $3,000
winner, Mrs. Verna Phelan,
whose husband is a lawyer, in
Miami Shores, Florida,
• • •
Of course you've guessed it—
the picture matched up with the
smiling woman in blue sitting
next to me at the tablet
"I've entered this contest for
Ave years now, and I've sub-
mitted 27 recipes in all," she
told us when she had returned
to the table and proudly shown
her check, "It really pays to per-
severe."
When the first excitement was

Limited Cook
Recalls Grandma
With so many folks nowadays
forced to live far away from
the abundant supplies of fresh
foods available to most of us,
this article from the Christian
Science Monitor might provide,
not only Interesting reading,
but also some valuable hints.
• • •
For the first time in a long
career of culinary experimenta-
tion, one cook is having to use
canned and dehydrated foods to
an extent she never thought
possible. "Sweet are the uses of
adversity" comes to her mind
almost every day as she pre-
pares meals for two people.
Instead of having the usual
abundance of fresh vegetables
and fruits, she must now stock
her few storage shelves with
8 -oz. cans of such things and as
each can provides about two
servings only, there are few
left -overs , , , once her delight
but now completely taboo.
She also stocks onion flakes,
green pepper flakes, celery salt,
garlic powder and parsley
flakes, as none of these articles
is available to her in the fresh
state. A few of the standard
condiments complete the list.
Fresh milk being out of the
question she uses the powdered
nonfat variety exclusively, sup-
plementing it with powdered
cream for various dishes and
beverages that seem to demand
a richer product than skim
milk,
She usually procures freshly
ground hamburg a little at a
time to supplement the chops or
tinned fish that vary her meals
during the week.
With meager cooking facilities
at hand, most of her recipes
orange rind in a saucepan, Bring
to a boil and remove from heat.
Add currants and extract. Allow
to stand 1 hour. (It's the currants
standing in the syrup that give
the cakes the flavor," Mrs. Phel-
an told me when she was describ-
ing the recipe.) Drain thorough-
ly, reserving syrup.
Sift together flour, baking
powder, and salt. Cream butter;
gradually add sugar, creaming
well, Blend in eggs and vanilla.
Add dry ingredients alternately
with milk, beginning and end-
ing with dry ingredients. Blend
thoroughly after each addition.
(With electric mixer use a low
speed.) Makes 2 dozen cup cakes,

have had to be abandoned en-
tirely or reconstructed to meet
present conditions, and a meat
loaf with which she recently
experimented was baked in a
small top -of -the -stove oven over
an electric plate without benefit
of oven themometer. As she
guessed at the temperature of
the oven she found it amusing
to imagine herself back in the
days when wood -burning stoves
were in every kitchen, oven
thermometers were unheard of
gadgets and the cook tested the
heat of the oven by thrusting
her hand into it, Here is a re-
vised recipe.
Meat Loaf for Two People
li pound ground beef
Ili cup powdered milk
11 cup water
1 slice soft bread (the top
half of a hamburg bun can
be used)
11/2 tblsp. beaten egg (a medium
sized egg yields 311 tblsp,)
It tsp, green pepper flakes
snipped fine with scissors
1 tsp. parsley flakes
1 tblsp. onion flakes
2 tsp, celery salt
A pinch of black pepper
11 tsp. salt
A small pinch of garlic
powder
Crumble the bread in a bowl,
Add the dry milk powder and
all the seasonings, Stir together
and add the water and beaten
egg, Work these ingredients to
a thin paste with a fork. Add
the meat and continue to work
with a fork until the meat and
seasoning are evenly combined.
Pack solidly in a well-oiled tin
3x5x11/2 inches and set aside for
15 or 20 minutes to season.
Bake uncovered at 375° F for
about 25 minutes or until the
loaf is cooked to the preferred
doneness, May be served hot or
cold.
One of these meat loaves
formed the main dish of a din-
ner and was accompanied by
small glasses of tomato juice
soy bean crackers, hot buttered
beets, toasted English muffins
with ginger marmalade and a
mixed salad of lettuce, cucum-
ber and shredded carrots dress-
ed with olive oil, a few drops
of white vinegar and season-
ings, Dessert comprised sliced
pineapple (from one of the
small tins) and cup cakes The
main beverage was a chocolate
milk shake in which was the
remainder of the beaten egg
used in the meat leaf, s.
THINK IT OVER
It would be a fine thing if atf
those who point a finger would
hold out a hand Instead.

NEW AGE OF AIR TRAVEL — First American jet commercial
lineir to go into regular service will be the Boeing 707, shown
taking off in a sketch by NEA artist John Lane, Pan-American
plans to start commercial jet service this fail with the 707 Jet
Clipper on its New York -Paris -Rome run, The 707 started rolling
off the production line in July, 1954, and has been subjected
to testi ever since. it is 144 feet, 6 Inches long with a wing
span of 130 feet, 10 inches. Operating at 25,000 to 40,000
feet altitude with a maximum payload of 165 passengers, the
707 will have a cruising speed of approximately 600 m.p.h.,
enabling it to fly to Paris from New York in six and one-half
hours, cutting the time of piston -engined craft in half. Despite
its size, the 707 is said to be far simpler than conventional
aircraft — aerodynamically, mechanically and from a servicing
viewpoint, Four Pratt and Whitney J57 jet engines power the
plane.

"Dear Anne Hirst: I confess
that my worst fault' is an in-
clination to be jealous. 1 tell
myself how wrong it is, but
you know how little remarks
stick in your mind, Telling you
about it will help ... My hus-
band works where there are a
lot of women. He often talks
about how much fun they all
have, and I ani beginning to
wonder whether he does, too.
He claims he never flirts, but
you know how a man loves to
be noticed, and a clever w.anian
can always flatter him into hav-
ing an affair.
"—And what can a wile do
who has three small children, a
lot of housework, and no time
to fix herself up? Workin i girl.,
can spend money on them,elves,
but the provident housewife just
can't justify spending money for
pretty clothes.
"When we are with people my
husband is the original lite -of.
the -party, but he doesn't exert
himself to make fun for us here
at home. . . .Please advise me,
I need some straight talk from
someone like you.
WORRIED WIFE"
YOUR CHANCh
• Jealousy between wive. and
• business girls has existed ever
• since girls began to earn their
• own living, and it will con-
• tinue so Jong as wives envy
• girls their pretty clothes and
• their "freedom," and suspect
• their husbands of philander-
• ing, Yet where is the wife who
• hasn't the first chance to keep
• her man contented at ,to
• As you say, it isn't difficult
• for a clever woman to flatter
• a man. 1 wonder whether you
* have applied this psychology
• to your husband? If he is the
• life of the party, it is because
• he enjoys the applause of the
• crowd. Why don't you supply
• applause at home?
• Why not take time out to
• flatter the man yourself?
• Build him up as the lord of
• his manor. Don't let a day
• pass that you do not say for
• imply) how proud you are of
* him, how the children look
• forward to his coming home?
* Dwell on his attractive man-
* ners, his appearance, and
• show him that you are still
• attractive, too. Instead of de-
• crying your lack of money,
• take 20 minutes out to freshen
• up for his arrival, put on a
• welcoming smile, and make
$ him glad he married you.
• You will object yon haven't
' time for such nonsense, but
• with a little planning you can
• lighten his mood and set the
• tone of the evening ahead.

* The fact that your husband
• speaks of the fun they have
* in the office indicates, to my
• mind, how lightly he takes ft.
* If he were on the lookout for
• a flirtation, he would avoid
• the subject, not reveal it. In-
* stead of doubting him,..,,be a
• trusting wife; your best se-
* curity is to take it for granted
* he is entirely loyal. Many a
• suspicious wife has sent her
• man to extra -marital affairs
• by sowing the seeds in his
* mind.
* Caring for small children
* and a house is an exhausting
* and often a dull job. But it
* is part of a wife's responsi-
* bility to create the atmos-
* phere of the home: if you will
* keep yours pleasant, even gay
* you will find your husband
* more the man who courted
• you. 1 don't know of any atti-
* tude that brings richer
awards,
• Chin up! You can do it.

A MEAN MAN
„Dear Anne Hirst:
My husband draws a veteran's
disability compensation, but he
is making one awful mistake.
He doesn't know what he owes
our five children, As each one
reaches high school he nags
them into getting a job, and
three of them have already left
home. I am desolated. •
"I can't do anything with him.
He won't give me money or
anything beyond barest needs.
I never can go anywhere, and
one of my youngsters has never
seen a movie! My 1G -veer -old
h:s just left for service, my
youn^,est is six.
"What can 1 do?
5111S. F.r,."
• Your husband is a short-
* sighted man to deny his chit-
* dren the education that would
• fit then to hold profitable po-
• sitions later on. To snatch
• then out of grammar school
• and force them to go to work
• is cheating them out of the
* fuller life that most parents
• want to provide.
• Perhaps you could not prove
• that he does support his tam-
* fly, but there are other essen-
• tials to decent living than shel-
• ter and food. IHIis failure to
• provide those has driven some
• of your children away from
• home. I know how you dread
• the future of the younger ones.
• Consult the legal authorities
* and tell them your story. It
• is likely that one of their staff
• can explain to your husband
• his responsibilities toward his
• children. Since his income is
• adequate, you say, there seems
* no excuse to deprive the
• youngsters of their rights, and
• make your life happier.
* *
A suspicious wife can change
a loyal man into an unfaithful
one; it takes a real cad to be-
tray a trusting wife. In any time
of trouble, write to Anne Ilirst,
and know you can trust her
judgment. Address her at Box 1,
123 Eighteenth St., New Toronto,
Ont.

cause of their great weight. But
that doesn't hinder the birds at
all. Bluejays at this moment are
clinging upsidedown to the heads
in their determination to get at
the succulent seeds. We don't
mind; that's why we grew the
sunflowers, just to attract the
birds. Flowers and birds are
both cheery to look at. Here come
three more bluejays. Lovely
birds in spite of their unlovely
cry. We have seen quite a lot of
robins lately too. I wonder why?
Ah, here comes a yellow -bellied
sap -sucker and, I think, a kill-
deer, all pecking away and fight-
ing for position at the same six
or seven sunflowers, the only
ones on which the seed is ripe.
The starlings don't seem to be
interested. And do you know,
we hardly have any sparrows
here at all. Canaries, orioles,
cedar waxwings and the birds
previously mentioned, but very
few sparrows, At the farm they
were flitting around by the hun-
dreds. I can't say we regret their
absence. I like the song 'sparrow,
chipping sparrow and the little
white -throated birds, but house
sparrows . , . the only time I
am glad to see them is in win-
ter, their persistent chirping fol-
lowing a sudden thaw is always
welcome.
Well, this has been more or
less a week of "catching up" —
catching up on a little rest, a
few letters, a bit of visiting,
Partner mowing the lawn and
the usual household chores that
go to make our days what they
are. On the farm we never knew
what it was to be bored — and
we don't yet. We keep busy in
much the same way but to a
lesser degree. As you have prob-
ably guessed when we get a lit-
tle homesick for farm life we
pay a visit to one or other of
our friends who still live 'On a
farm. There Partner is always
ready to pitch in and help with
whatever work is -in progress.
For that reason he always throws
a pair of overalls and high rub-
ber boots into the back of the
car. No sense in wanting to help
with the work unless you're
equipped for the job.
Well, the scene has changed a
bit — or maybe I should say its
scope has widened. Back of the
birds and the sunflowers an
earthmover is at work, digging
a basement for yet another gas
station along the Dundas High-
way. It is a two -acre parcel of
land running back to the border-
line of our property. When we
first came it was the site, of a
lovely house and a beautiful
garden. The owners sold out
to an oil company, so the pres-
ent activity is the natural result.
We regretted the demolition of
the house and garden but since
they are gone we now find it
fun to watch present proceed-
ings. In fact there is plenty go-
ing on all around us. North and
south gas mains are being in-
stalled; a little to the west water
pipes for the village of Ertndale
are being laid. And none too
soon. So many wells went dry
this summer. People had to get
their water from a spring a mile
away. No doubt scarcity of wa-
ter has previously frightened
away any would-be industries
that might have wanted to settle
here. Now, with water installa-
tion in the near future practi-
cally a certainty, I am wonder-
ing what will happen next. Will
pictn;.esque little Erindale dis-
appear as such, as so many other
villages have done before it?
Already the Woodlands subdi-
vision has replaced the lovely
stand of birch, maple and Oak
that had been there for years.
True, trees have been left stand-
ing here and there wherever
possible but there isn't much
room for trees when houses are
built close together.
To the east of us — that is
between here and Cooksville, a
large chain store is to be built.
Near the new hospital plans aro
underway for the construction
of a Medical Centre. And so it
goes — development everywhere.
On our quiet little crescent, and
the next road over, there are a
number of vacant lots. We won-
der how long before contractors
move in and build still more
houses. It can't be too soon,
Houses and gardens are better
than weed -infested vacant lots.
Sometimes we wonder why weed
inspectors are ever appointed.
Township weed Inspectors visit
almost every occupied farm, in-
sisting that weeds be cut or
sprayed. But'let a farm be sold
—to a speculator or to the De-
partment of Highways and what
happens? Fields are left idle;
weeds grow and seed—seed that
is carried by wind, weather and
birds to cultivated areas. Surely
the Department of Agriculture
could bring pressure to bear in
the right quarters to make land-
owners responsible for keeping
their properties free of noxious
weeds. If they go scot free why
harass the farmer for the weeds
he has been unable to control.
No farmer likes weeds on his
land but there is a limit to what
he can do, especially with help
that is often incompetent. Sauce
for the goose should be sauce
for the gander too.

TV Cr Mov:e3
"One of us," Link Williams
had sa'd, "will go out feet first."
' The two men met face to face
under a hot sun en a dusty road
in eastern Oregon's Fox Valley,
a cattle land of stunted juniper
and sagebrush with the Blue
Mountains above it. Link Wil -
Hams, a tall, lean 47, carried a
rifle and two six-shooters. The
other man was his brother-in-
law, Bobby Sproul, a short, rug-
ged 44. Sproul carried a rifle too,
and a Luger. It was 9 o'clock in
the morning—otherwise the grim
scene could have come straight
out of "High Noon."
Behind that morning's meet-
ing lay a family feud that had
smoldered for about fifteen yeas.
Williams and Sproul had pc-
quircd their adjoining ranches
from Liiik's father. Link's 3,000
acres were somewhat smaller
than Bobby's acreage and par-
tially surrounded by it. Link re-
sented that. Link, a bachelor.
had served in World War II, and
Bobby. married to Link's sister,
had not. Link resented that, too.
He called Bobby "yellow," Bob-
by resented that,
What brought matters to a
head between them was the ques-
tion of Cummings Creek Road,
a dirt track that ran across
Link's property but connected'
parts of Bobby's holdings. It was
convenient for Bobby to use it.
Link said he couldn't. To make
his point clear, he. threw a bar-
rier of boulders and logs across
the road, a short way from the
fence that divided their ranches.
That was last June.
A few days later, the two men
happened to encounter each
other. "Link," said Bobby, "I'm
coming.in there next Saturday
and Mtar off those rocks." "If
you do," said Link, "be there
with a Winchester." Atid that
was when he added: "One of us
will go out feet first."
One did.
On Saturday morning, June
21, Link was waiting at the bar-
ricade. With him was a brother,
Dolly Williams, who had come
along hoping to smooth things
over. Dolly looked at Link's
rifle and lit the two pistols tucked
into his belt. What, he asked,
was Link going to do? "When
Bobby Sproul comes through
that gate," said Link, "I'll show
you."
Bobby Sproul drove up in his
car from his own side. He got
out with the Luger in a holster
dangling around his neck. The
holster was cut away at both
ends so he could shoot without
drawing. When he saw Link's
rifle pointed at him, he reached
back into the car and brought
out a rifle of his own. Then he
walked through the gate.
Link kept his rifle raised as
Bobby walked steadily toward
him. Bobby's rifle was lowered,
As the two men drew close to-
gether, Dolly Williams endeav-
ored to get them into conversa-
tion. The conversation was short,
Bobby said he was going to clear
the road. "If you do," said Link,
"I'll kill you." He moved toward
Bobby, rifle levelled. Bobby
slowly hacked away.
What happened next never
did become completely clear.
Bobby claimed afterward that
he saw "a wild animal look" in
Link's face and felt something.
Whatever, Bobby ducked side-
ways, dropped his rifle, and
started firing the Luger at his.
brother-in-law. Eight bullets
went into Link's body. One
knocked the rifle from Link's
hand. But he didn't fall imme-
diately, He tried to reach down
for one of his pistols that had
dropped into the dust. Bobby
kicked it into the weeds. Link
pitched forward, dead.
Bobby Sproul was put on trial
for first-degree murder, last
month, in . the marble-tr'irrimed
Grant County Courthouse, one
of the few modern buildings in
the onetime gold -rush boom
town of Canyon City. Bobby
claimed self-defense, that he
flred only after being fired at.
The state claimed that it had
been a duel, that self-defense
was not involved. During the
trial evidence was brought out
that showed one shot had been
flred from Link's rifle, but
whether he shot flrst, no one
could tell. The jury deliberated
for Tess than two hours Its
unanimous first -ballot verdict:
Not guilty.
The (list to rush to Sproul's
arms was his wife, Violet, the
sister of the man he had killed,
Other sisters .followed with their
embraces. Even Dolly Williams,
who had testified for the state,
threw an arm around Sproul's
shoulders and remarked to Vio-
let: "You got hobbles on him, so
he can't kick ,up his heels?"
• After that, Bobby Sproul was
back on his ranch with "a lot
of chores to do" after three
months in jail. On the Williams
property,, the stone barricade
still stood, Sproul had no im-
mediate plans for its removal—
he would have a new owner to
deal with, The ranch on which
Link Williams had led nis lonely,
embittered life, and where he
met his death, is up tor auction
next month.

Murder Partners
Fought In Dock
A gasp of horror broke from
the startled policeman's lips as
he shone his torch through the,
shop door and lit up the batter-
ed, bloodstained face of an old
man,
It was Joe fledford, the
eighty-year-old owner of the
shop, a junk store at Portslade,
in' Sussex, Police -constable Pet-
ers had. been making his rounds
of the shops on his beat that
misty, cold night of November
13th, 1933. He had been trying
the doors, seeing they were
safely locked, when he came to
Joe's shop,
Peters knew that Bedford, an
eccentric old man, short-sighted
and deaf, took in his stock every
night at eight o'clock. But here
it was at ten, still out on show
on the pavement—bits of iron-
mongery and so forth.
What was going on? Had old
Joe's clock stopped? thought
Peters. It was then that _ he
heard a groaning in the shop,
shone his torch through the
locked door and lit up Bedford's
battered face—but only for a
moment or so. As the light
shone on him, the old shop-
keeper collapsed to the ,floor.
Peters forced open the door,
picked up Bedford and ' had an
ambulance summoned to take
him to hospital. But the old
man died the next day .without
being able to tell what had hap-
pened.
The police searched the shop.
In a corner, £40 in notes was
found. It was known that Bed-
ford usually kept his small
money in a till that had two
compartments; one for silver
and one for coppers.
When the police investigated
the till, the silver compartment
was empty, but a few coppers
remained, although all over the
floor were strewn pennies and
half -pennies and f a r t h i n g s.
Among the farthings was a but-
ton.
But what were such things
worth as clues? There were no
fingerprints or bloodstains any-
where.
Then one of Bedford's custom-
ers came forward. At 7,45 p.m.,
on November 13th, he had no-
ticed two men loitering outside
the shop. He was able to give
the police a good description of
the men, and eventually .two
men were arrested at Worthing
and charged with murdering
the junk shop owner.
If these two—Albert Probert,
aged twenty-six, and Frederick
Parker, aged twenty-one—had
said nothing when charged, it
might have been another case
of the "perfect murder." But,
instead, each man made a state-
ment admitting complicity in
the crime but accusing the other
of the actual murder of the
shopkeeper,
As neither man denied hav-
ing knowledge of the crime, the
police had every reason to have
them brought to trial. But where
was the evidence, the vital clue
that would convict them?
Sir Henry Curtis Bennett, ap-
pearing for the Crown, said that
the case was a most remarkable

one, One man accused of mur-
der had gone into the witness -
box and, on oath, accused his
fellow prisoner of the crime,
But the other not only denied
that he had had anything to do
with the crime, but said that the
bloodstained clothing he was
wearing belonged to the first
man.
While the case proceeded,
Probert appeared to be ready to
kill Parker, and Parker was
equally ready to kill Probert.
Policeman had to separate them
in the dock. Even during the
preliminary hearing at Hove,
the men bad had to be trans-
ported backwards and forwards
from Lewes Prison in separate
taxicabs.
Parker's statement to the po-
lice was that he and Probert
had met. in a Church Army hos-
tel at Brighton, Probert had
told him of "a job" worth doing
and asked him to go with him.
They took an unloaded gun
and a tyre lever with thein as
weapons. As to the crime itself,
Parker said all he had done was
to hold up Bedford while Pro-
bert hit him. He had even had
to hit Probert to stop him
striking the old man.
While he was giving evidence,
Parker fainted seven times, par-
ticularly when the time came
for Bedford's injuries to be de-
scribe'!.
Probert went into the witness -
box and denied completely that
he had ever 'set foot in Bed-
ford's shop, He said that on the
night before the crime Parker
had put on his blue suit and
overcoat, while he had worn
Parker's brown jacket, flannel
trousers and overcoat. On the
STRICTLY SCIENTIFIC—The current hula hooping craze has
reached' even the hallowed halls of ivy, where it is now recog-
i nixed as just a matter of Newton's laws of motion, At South-
western College in Memphis, Tenn., President Peyton N. Rhodes
utilizes the physics he formerly taught to whirl the hoop as
an unbelieving coed pauses in the background. Below is Di.
Rhodes' "explanation" of how it's done,
PHYSICS AND THE HOOP
-i
"Actually, what is involved is the conservation of angular momentum; '
something thot should certainly be conserved by all and sundry. It is
merely necessary to exert a small, but carefully regulated impulse (the
product of force X time) by allowing e • hypersensitive sacroiliac to
Impinge on ei small, portion of the interior periphery of a ihort section
of the hoop. The impulse, applied with some discretion, serves to
produce a change in the angular momentum• of the hoop, and if the
force of this impulse Is so directed that there is a small vertical com-
ponent of this momentum opposing. the force of gravity which acts
uniformly over the plane of the hoop, then the resulting horizontal
motion will be maintained with rare uniformity to the amazement of
all beholders who do not realize that the whole dell is lust as easy
es lalling off a log,"
• day of the murder, he saw
Parker just before 11 a,m, and
then not until 0 p.m., at Port-
slade Station. Parker appeared
very excited, and said he had
managed to borrow £3. Pro-
bert's overcoat was so wet that
Parker lent him his. When he
put on the overcoat, he noticed
there was a button missing.
The question of the borrowed
money was important, for the
following reasons. Between No-
vember 7th and November 13th,
both Probert and Parker had
been very hard up. Not only
had they pawned their clothing,
but they were unable to pay
their room rent. Yet, from the
night of. November 13th, they
obviously had money.
They bought new clothing in
Worthing. Why was it so neces-
sary to do' this? There were
bloodstains on the right sleeve
of Probert's jacket and on his
trousers!
The police became interested
in those new clothes and called
on every shop in Worthing that
sold clothing until they found
the one which had served the
two suspects.
On the evening of November
14th, they were told, Probert
and Parker had called at the
shop and had bought new suits
and shirts. While the two were
in the shop, Probert told Parker
that a button was missing from
his overcoat. The shop assistant
said the establishment had
plenty of similar buttons in
stock, and very helpfully sewed
on one.
The police remembered the,
button that had been found
atnong the farthings in Bed-
ford's shop, Not only was it ex-
actly similarto the buttons on
the overcoat, but presumably
old Joe Bedford had wrenched
It off in the struggle, becfause a
particle gf the overcoat material
had come away with it.
Now the pieces of the jigsaw
fitted in faster and faster; the
bloodstains on the jacket and
trousers were tested and they
were found to belong to the
sante blood group as Joseph's
Bedford's.
So the police had assembled,
in addition to the clue of the
missing button, the following
Items of damning evidence.
(1) Accused identified as hav-
ing been seen close to the vicin-
ity of the shop were Bedford
was attacked.
(2) Accused were penniless
before the murder, but the day
after bought new clothes in
Worthing,
(3) They took 15s -a -week
lodgings in Worthing and gave
false names.
(4) When questioned by the
police they also gave false
names.
(5) Farthings were scattered.
about Bedford's shop; farthings
found in the possession of the
accused.
(6) Bloodstains on clothing
belonged to Bedford's blood
group.
.Meanwhile, Frederick Parker
was still talkative. His story
was that they had tried to sell
an old vacuum -cleaner in Port-
slade. Somebody had said that
Joe Bedford might buy it. He
and Probert had gone to the
shop.
They had held up Bedford
with 'the unloaded gun, and Pro-
bert had knocked the old man
out. They had taken about £6
from the till, but they thought
the old man would have had
more money, Until they were
arrested, they did not know that
Bedford was dead.
And what did counsel for the
defence have to say to all this?
Counsel suggested that Joe.
Bedford might have fallen and
fractured his skull when P.C.

How Dog River
Got Its Name
Visitors to cosmopolitan Be-
irut—captial city of the Leban-
on which is so frequently in the
news nowadays—usually hear
the legend of how the Dog
River, which flows near the city,
got its quaint name.
The story goes that many
centuries ago an enormous stone
figure of a dog stood high on a
cliff close to the mouth of the
river. It had a great hollow
head.
When the wind., blew from a
certain direction this hollow
head would emit weird howls
which • terrified the then small
population of Beirut. The howls
kept everyone awake at night
and only the oldest pepole ven-
tured near the Dog after dark.
The superstitious declared that
the Dog was always inhabited
by a devil between midnight
and 5 a.m.
"We have got to stop this ter-
rifying noise and kill the super-
stition,"-the
uper-
stition,"-the leaders of the peo-
ple declared,
So, early one morning a brave
party of thirty volunteers climb-
ed up to the dog and, by a
tremendous joint effort, pushed
it off the cliff into the sea
