An editorial by Philip Deane, sluff
reporter for the Globe & Hail, in the
January 2nd edition bears comment,
'This editorial states that 30 percent
of the world's' population has half the
food supply and that one seventh of
the population controls two thirds of
the wealth,
Mr. Phillips goes on to explain that
the "West" must change its ways or
we will find ourselves over run by this
huge mass of underprivileged people.

other's famine.
In all this I can readily agree. It
conforms nicely to the recommenda-
tion of the Canadian Federation of Ag-
riculture that hos been urging the for-
mation of a world food bank for many
years.
One suggestion I would make how-
ever is that Canadians should first
clean hone base. At the Marketing
and Co1pperative Conference held De-
cember 28-31' in Guelph) Prof. Ralph
Campbell game the following figures;
Percent of Farmers in Population,
Britain, 5 percent; Denmark, 20 per-
cent; Netherlands, 13 percent; Canada
13 percent. Percent of National Income
received by farmers, Britain, 5 per.
cent; Denmark, 10 .percent; Nether-
lands, 101/2 percent; Canada, 71/2,per-
cent,
Only in Britain do farmers receive
the shard of the National income that
they produce, In Canada the farmer
produces twice . as much National
wealth as he receives for his labour.
Just as the Globo and Mail editorial
points out that our World economy
cannot continue on this basis neither
can oto' Canadian economy continue
when one industry- is required to sub-
sidizo the balance of aur labour force
to the . extent of half its income.
On inquiry►I have bcen.informed that
unemployment insurance and welfare
payments by Government ,amounted to
over 200 million in the past year. • Also
that the total cost to Goveeenent for
subsidies to Agriculturewas leas than
20 millions; •
It:.doesn't seem logical that the
Government eitaUld make such a huge
oxpetullture , to guarantee that the
people have the money to purchase
food and refuse. to make any guarantee
that there will be' fond available for
that same person to buy.

Well! Well! se soon the calendar rias
turned elle year around once and it 'is
time to look ahead at some of the
things which are conning up in the
agricultural field.
It has been suggested and discussed
at the LO.F.U.C, meeting in the West,
that we take seine sort of action
against inflation o1' in other words let
us do something that will make our
dollar ($) buy as much to -morrow as
it bought to•day,

The suggested merger of the Co -Ops

keting boards with thelTability to bar-
gain for or against as the case may be.
Milk pooling is another subject receiv-
ing plenty of discussion at the present
time and it is easy to understand why
with such a large spread in pricing,

tem of marketing hogs,
Although it is any privilege to write

of a symbol ($) to demand service,
:ow I would like to remind you here
t is by service to one another, be it
great. or small, that we live and pros

refuse to receive service, We, auto.

serve.
Deficiency payments or other gynt-
icks used by any group of a society in
such a way as to create false markets
must eventually, reflect back on the
economy in such a way as to cause
financial hazards to all concerned,
The merger of tate Co -Ops owYeed by

trig to be gathered together in such a
way that they appear to have bargain-

which affect bargaining power; first

and willingness of`a market to accept
a product; Marketing boards foamed

"I don't know what they are
killing out there, but they mean
to make sure of it," said Mrs.
Hannah Wickhani to her hus-
band as she heard shots coming
from the nearby -by woods.
She and Mr. Wickham — a
coachman employed by Mr.
Horace Wilkinson, J.P., lived on
the Franfield Manor estate, five
nines from Sevenoaks on the
Maidstone road, and were used
to hearing gunfire from the
surrounding country, where
game -shooting was common.
Little did Mrs, Wickhani real-
ize that what she heard was
the death -knell of a woman she
knew well — Mrs. Caroline
Mary Luard, wife of Majrir-
General Charles Edward Luard,
who lived at Ightham Knoll, a
near -by mansion.
An hour later the general
came to her door, distraught
and trembling. "My wife . .
my wife .. a terrible accident
. , . " he stammered. He asked
to see the coachman, but Mrs,
Wickham told him that her hus.
band had gone to the stables.
The general, though apparent-
ly near to collapse, went up to
the Wilkinson manor where he
was met by the butler, Herbert
Harding, "She is dead," were
the general's first words. Then,
after a brief rest, he went with
Harding to a little summer-
house on the estate.
There the horrified bUtler
saw Mrs. Luard lying dead, her
face almost unrecognizable from
bullet wounds a n d blackened
with powder. The local con-
stable
on-
stable was summoned, and
within an hour a police doctor
and detective arrived from Maid-
stone.
It was a clear case of brutal
murder. The woman had been
battered w i t h a heavy stick.
Then, when she had slumped
down on the steps to the ver-
anda, her killer had fired sev-
eral
everal shots at her head from
close range. One of the bullets
had entered under her left eye
and almost tore open her face.
Another had entered behind her
right ear.
There was no clue to the iden•
tity of the murderer, nor could
any possible motive be discov-
ered. The revolver from which
the shots had been fired was
missing. In fact, it was never
found.
Throughout that night of Aug-
ust 2nd, 1908, and the 'following
day, policemen and estate work-
ers searched the woods. Blood-
hounds were brought in, but no
trail was found. No stranger had
been seen in the district either
before or after the crime.
The murder rocked London
society and the landed gentry of
Kent, among whom the general

and his wife were well known
The general, squire of lghtham
Knoll, had lived happily in re-
tirement with his wife, and both
took part in many local affairs.
Scotland Yard was called in
and some of the most experienc-
ed officers of the Murder Squad
took up the investigations. They
were as baffled as the detectives
of the Kent Constabulary.
If the murderer was a tramp
who had been tempted by the
sight of an unprotected hvoman
to attack and rob her — why did
he leave her trinkets untouched?
Would such a man possess an
automatic revolver? If he did,
would he be so reckless as to fire
several shots in broad daylight
on the veranda of a summer-
house frequently used by its
owners?
Why, after having battered his
victim unconscious, did he kill
her in a manner that suggested
blind, senseless fury? And how
did he manage to slink away
without leaving a trace and
without being seen?
The information that the gen-
eral gave to the police did not
Help them. He told them that un
that fine August day he accom-
panied his wife on a stroll
through the woods, Then he de-
cided to go to the golf club to
see if he could find a partner.
His wife said she would walk
to the Wilkinson's summer-
house, near Fish Pond Wood, in
the hope of finding a member of
the family there al tea -time. Her
husband was to meet her there
later.
The general arrived at the
club -house at 3.30 p.m. and was
seen by a caretaker. There was
no one there to give him a game,
so he decided to go home, On
his way he met the local clergy-
man, the Rev. Albert Cotton.
After an hour General Luard ar-
rived home and found he had a
visitor, a Mrs, Stewart.
The General explained that
his wife had gone for a walk, in-
tending to visit the Wilkinsons
at the summer -house, and added
that he was going to meet her
there.
General Luard told the police
— and later the "..oroner's jury
at the inquest — that he walked
to the summer -house and found
his wife's body on the veranda.
Il was later established that none
of the Wilkinson family had beer._
to the summer -house that after-
noon.
At the inquest a verdict of
"murder by a person or persons
unknown.' was returned. But
soon gossip started in the Ken
ish village. The general began
to receive anonymous letters, ac-
cusing him of the murder of his
wife,
There was not the slightest
reason why this elderly man, an
officer with a distinguished rec-
ord in the Boer War, married for
many years and extremely fond
of his devoted wife, should have
committed such a senseless and
brutal murder.
And yet, there were some un-
explained features in the gen-
oral's story, Why clid Mrs. Luard
go to the summer -house? The
police established that she must
have known that it would be
empty and locked up, Mrs, Wil-
kinson had told her this a few
days before, mentioning that, be-
cause of some repairs, the sum-
mer -house was not being used.
But this question remained
unanswered,

near 'Aston. Suddenly, and with
horror, they saw an elderly man
with a heavy white moustache,
climbing up the embankment,
just as a train was approaching
from Teston Crossing.
Before their eyes the old man
walked upright and briskly to-
wards the track. He paused for
a moment and then, as the train
came on at full speed, he threw
himself headlong in front of the
engine. Minutes later the ter-
ribly mutilated body was Identi-
fied as that. of Major-General

While the Christmas season
was with us I was on the look-
out for the unusual — in sim-
plicity of giving, in decorations,
in cards and cookery, iti ways
of celebrating, In fact anything
that had any connection with
the Christmas season.
The first oddity came to light
concerning a Christmas cake. A
young housewife sent rhe an
S.O.S. She had her cake all
mixed and then found she had
put in two teaspoons of baking
soda instead of baking powder.
What should she do —_ add the
baking powder as well as soda?
My answer to that was "No—
for heaven's sake, no!" Now 1
don't pretend to be an authority
but I thought I had better see
what suggestions I could offer
to remedy the situation. I warn-
ed her the cake might be over -
light'. .. to leave the mixture
sitting overnight and in pans
deep enough for it to expand
without running over. I was
afraid the cakes might have a
slightly bitter taste but when
I tasted the raw mixture I found
it was all right. Well, the cakes
turned out fine except for being
a little too light to keep moist
for very long. However, her
family soon took care of that
situation.
Then came another cake-cail.
Had I a large, deep pan to lend?
I didn't have anything big
enough so do you knoht what
this ingenious young housewife
did? She took the handle off
het' pressure cooker and
the cooker for an oven cake
pan. It worked fine. The cake
cooked slowly and evenly in
the heavy metal container.
Quite an idea, wasn't it?
Ten clays before Christmas a
man came' to our door selling
greeting cards. I was on the
point of telling him 1 didn't
want any when he said they
were cards he made himself.
That was different — I asked to
see then. Each card had an at-
tractive stencil design on the
front. Inside were greetings in
rhyme and a short original
poem. The card opened up like
a sheet of paper and on the
inside the sane poethh was set
to music, All the work of this
travelling artist — or so he said,
And somehow 1 believed hint,
he seemed to have such an in-
teresting personality. Anyway
the cards bore his signature and
mailing address. The name was
familiar but not the person. He
was an Irishman, well versed to
history and literature. 1 would
liked to have asked him in but
I didn't because 1 was alone. 1
hate to be sceptical but after
all one has to remember that
selling things is a good way to
gain entry into a house. Il is
better these days to err on the
side of caution, Here is one of
the man's verses. How do you
like it?
"The snowflakes fa.l, they
softly call
The heart is quick to hear
They fill the sight with sheer
delight
And thoughts of homey
cheer,"

In Christmas gifts 1 didn't
hear of anything outstandingly
original except in the way one
woman solved a financial prob-
lem. She is accustomed to giv-
ing her own home a Christmas
give every year. This time she
wanted a really nice set of hos-
tess or TV tables. But the ones
she wanted were sold only in
sets of four and came to more
than she could afford. Then she
had a brainwave. She bought
the set, kept two for herself
and gave the others away to
two of her friends. That w

In our family we went easy
on toy -buying for our grand-
sons — except for Ross. He is
so crazy about machinery that
we couldn't resist giving him .a
working model of a .power sho-
vel. The others had skates, pyja-
mas, books, records, rubber
farm animals, knitted socks and
mitts and cuddly toys for the
two youngest, Incidentally have
you realized how hard it is to
get nice stuffed toys? Most of
them are so huge and ugly—
and expensive. I went to about
ten different stores before get-
ting one that I thought was
really suitable for a toddler.

Blackmailed Hubby
To Save Her Marriage
After only three months of
marriage, the pretty, twenty-
four -year-old housewife w a s
very worried because her cre-
ditors were beginning to threa-
ten her. She dared not tell her
husband about debts contracted,
chiefly through her love of ex-
pensive clothes and cosmetics.
He was, she knew, very mean
about money matters, and cer-
tain to fly off the handle.
At last the girl, Hilda, thought
up a way in which she could
wheedle money out of him, and
square h e r accounts, without
bringing suspicion on herself.
Her husband, a twenty -five-
year-old chemist's assistant, had,
she discovered, a secret too. It
concerned an old flame of this,
with whom he was now having
a furtive affair.
So, to clear her debts, Hilda
conceived the idea of blackmail-
ing her husband ! Using a bor-
rowed typewriter, she wrote
anonymous notes to him, threat-
ening that if the did not leave
$150 at a certain spot she would
reveal his secret to his wife
He paid up and encourage by
her success, Hilda repeated her
demand. But this time her hus-
band went to the police with
the whole story.
Routine inquiries led detec•
fives to Hilda's financial diffi-
culties. Two creditors had re-
cently been satisfied, although
other accounts were still out-
standing, And her husband, it
was discovered, hadn't an ink-
ling about these debts.
Next, the police checked
against machines in the neigh-
bourhood the characters of the
typewriter used in the anony-
mous correspondence. These tal-
lied with a machine belonging
to a girl friend of Hilda's. From
this friend. they established the
fact that Hilda had sonhetinies
borrowed that typewriter.
Confronted with this evidence,
the scheming young wife broke
down and confessed,
"I did it," she sobbed, "so as
not to upset my husband, and
preserve our marriage."
Realizing she must love him
very much to go to such lengths,
her husband forgave her. Now
they're living together very
happily.

Those Wives Aren't
So Badly Spoiled:
There's nothing like a three-
week vacation at home to re-
veal the idiocy of those who
claim American women are lazy
and spoiled,
The housewife may be the only
non -specialist left in this world
of specialization. She must be all
things to a considerable number
of people.
She is responsible for the phy•
steal, mental and spiritual wel-
fare of anywhere from one to a
dozen children and adults, She
sl perintends growing -up in the
fastest-growing era man has ever
known, She must know and have
faith — indeed, must [3E an ar-
ticle of faith — in a faithless age.
In a time of doubt and fear, she
niust betray no bewilderment or
insecurity. She must be an island
of calm in a frantic world.
If a woman in a Chinese com-
munity works in a rice paddy,
Someone minds her children and
keeps house. If a European wo-
man must discharge high social
obligations, some one else cooks.
If an Eskimo wife must cook and
keeps house and mind the chil-
dren, her man does the shopping
with his gun.
The American woman nwst
rear a model family, shop, cook,
keep house inside and out, enter-
tain and keep a man happy. To
help her, she has gadgets; and
because these .theoretically give
her leisure time, she is expected
to participate in great numbers
:of activities for church and
school, country and community
and family and neighbor.
She must be the intellectual
academic and artistic equal of
both husband and children so she
'doesn't bring shame to them, but.
Fhe must never overshadow
them. She must dream with man
and child and at the same time
be terribly practical. She must
know more rules than a lawyer
and more truth than the great-
est philosopher, and be always
more just than justice. She must
be strong and weak, somber and
gay, sympathetic and tough, de-
vious and direct.
She has to work before a man's
• day begins and long after his day
'has ended, but always he fresh
and beautiful. And if she finds
time to open a magazine, she is
sure to find there an article tell-
ing her how lazy•and selfiish and
inadequate she is.
She must give infinitely and
receive infinitesimally — and be
happy with it.

Just What's In That
Little Black Bag?
Just what do doctors carry in
their little black bags? Often,
some surprising equipment, the
journal Medical Economics re-
ported last month. A survey of
1,100 general practitioners and
specialists turned up these in-
triguing items and comments by
the doctors: A bent hairpin ("a
quicker and more efficient instru-
ment than any other for re-
moving foreign bodies from eat
or nose"): blank checks ("for the
smart patient who flashes a $50
-or $100 bill at 2 an "); wire
cutters for removing fishhooks
("I've removed about 300 in the
past 6 years"); and Nubble gum
("with children, it's synonymous
with injections"),
On the other hand, a surprising
number of bags (they weigh be-
tween 10 and 20 pounds) lack
equipment which most laymen
consider essential, The stetho-
scope, for example is not carried
(or considered necessary) by 15
per cent of the GP's, Even ther-
mometers are left at the office by
10 per cent of them.
The eloquence of the speaker
is 'in "direct proportion to the
number of nap -takers in the
audience.
WINTER TRAINING — Yankee baseball star Gil McDougald

Headhunter Wore
A Bowler Hat
Can any family rival the re-
cord of the painter F. W. Hay-
man Chaffey for world travel?
In 1949 he and his wife, Patri-
cia, sold all they possessed and
left their old Sussex farmhouse
on the Rother, intending to
roam Europe with their year-
old daughter, Susan, in a carry-
cot. In fact, they roamed the
world.
They earned their keep paint•
ung, typing, guarding embassies,
guiding tourists, holding exhi-
bitions and selling Charley's
paintings. They bought an old
Moorish house on the island of
Majorca and arranged an exhi-
bition in Madrid,
Chaffey gives a graphic ac-
count of their adventures in
"The Road Grew No Moss," il-
lustrated with his own photo-
graphs and drawings.
In 1955, while in Mexico City,
Chaffey received a cable from
London offering him a one-man
. show at the Hanover Gallery in
February, 1958. So they set out
to cross Central and South Am-
erica to Rio de Janeiro and re-
turn to England by way of Afri-
ca, earning their keep en route
just as they had in Europe.
They travelled 10,000 smiles by
bus, car, train and 'plane from
Mexico to Caracas, Venezuela,
drove anot her 100,000 miles
south in a Land -Rover present-
ed to them there by a car firm,
sailed 4,000 miles to Cape
Town, d r o v e 7,000 miles in
South Africa, then sailed an-
other 4,600 miles to Southamp-
ton.
On this journey Chaffey took
thousands of feet of cine film,
and 5,000 colour photographs. He
painted enough for six -one man
exhibitions in different cities.
When they arrived back their
children — Susan, ten, and
Charles, seven — had probably
travelled farther and seen more
of the world than any children
of their age anywhere,
At one point their train had
to creep along rails dented and
mishapen by • a cyclone, Their
bus journeys and car -lifts were
sometimes over roads strewn
with boulders or thick mud,
skirting mountain chasms.
In their Land Rover, they had
to cross swollen rivers, through
darkness and torrential rain,
scarcely knowing land from wa-
ter, before reaching the Peru-
vian frontier.
Near Lanquin, Guatemala, he
saw one river, the Semuc, car-
ried across another, the Caha-
bon, by a natural bridge, the
only one of its kind in the
world. Neatly eight hundred
yards long, over one hundred
yards wide, it had been formed
by calcium carbonate deposits
and petrified vegetation gradu-
ally thrusting outwards through
the centuries.
At Nicaragua's oldest city,
Granada, they stood on the
shore of a great lake which has
three hundred and ten small
islands and probably the only
fresh -water sharks in the world.
While they were crossing Col•
lonabia news came of a terrible
disaster at Cali. Four army lor-
lies laden with nitro-glycerine
had blown up in the barracks
square, demolishing thousands
of houses, buses, cars and trains.
Chaffey 'flew there to photo-
graph the ruins, and in the blaz-
ing heat wandered for hours
among the rubble, smoke and
dust and mangled bodies,
Three thousand were buried
in a common grave in the main
cemetery, which had been torn
up itself.
In Quitos, Ecuador, he met Dr,
Fergusson, an authority on the
Jivaro head-shrinkers. He told
his) that after the fierce Indi-
ans had attacked a Spanish
colonial outpost General Santi-
seben, commanding the Peruvi-
an Amazon area, sent out a pu-
nitive force of three hundred
then and officers armed with
rifles and machine guns,
None returned, but almost a
year later he found one morn-
ing, in front of the door of his
office, the dried and shrunken
heads of all he had sent on the
expedition!
Chaffey went into the jungle
villages and saw some shrun-
ken heads, but never penetrated
the secret of how they were
treated. The Jivaros he found in
Sucoa had traded with white
visitors and exchanged monkey -
teeth bracelets and monkey -skin
bags for old clothes, and these
they never removed, even to
sleep.
The Chief, Quinindo, wore an
old Air Force cap which he had
• not removed for over two years,
Another Jivar,, had worn a
short-cut evening waistcoat tor
the same period. An older man
was greatly pleased with him-

bowler, wearing below it only
a loincloth!

Skive Posed As
Queen's Sister
The wealthy guests laughed
and talked excitedly as they
awaited the arrival of the royal
princess — sister of Queen
Charlotte of England — who
was touring the state of Mary-
land, U.S.
The princess's host had spar-
ed no expense to make the oc-
casion memorable, and every
landowner for miles around
envied his good fortune in en-
tertaining a royal visitor.
Three trumpets sounded, and
the master of ceremonies cried:
"Her Royal Highness, the Prin-
cess Susanna Caroline Matilda."
Men bowed and woman curtsied
as a slim, beautifully gowned
young girl entered the room.
With great dignity the lovely
princess received the salutations
of the excited guests. '!'hen, on
the arm of her host, a wealthy
planter, she moved to her place
of honour at the head of the
decorated table.
Outside, newspaper reporters
were busy scribbling notes of
the splendid scene. A n d the
princess was so gay and charm-
ing that nobody bothered to
wonder why she should be tour-
ing the smaller towns of Ameri-
ca. After all, it was known that
several other rich planters had
been honoured by her presence
during the last few weeks, and
every hostess was angling to
have the royal visitor for her
own guest,
Then one of the reporters
passed a slip of paper to a ser-
vant, On it were the words:
"She is a maid named Sarah
Wilson, but has changed her
name to Princess Susanna Caro-
line. Matilda,"
The "princess," in fact, was a
runaway slave and at last events
were catching up with her. In
the meantime, she smiled and
joked, oblivious of what was
to happen.
How did this amazing adven-
ture begin? Sarah Wilson was
born at a sleepy Staffordshire
village in 1750, A smart girl,
she attracted the notice of a
local lady, Caroline Vernon, a
Maid of Honour to the Queen.
While still in her teens, Sarah
went to London with her new
employer, as maidservant at the
Queen's House, on the site of
the present Buckingham Palace,
One night in 1771, Sarah no-
ticed that one of the Queen's
rooms was unguarded, Know-
ing " that everyone was down-
stairs, she tiptoed into the room,
grabbed some of the dresses
and jewels which were there
and darted away, Returning for
a second load she was spotted
by Mrs, Von Schellenberg, who
caught her before she could es•
cape.
Next day Sarah Wilson ap-
peared before Lord Talbot, the
Lord High Steward, who sen-
tenced her to life transportation.
Within a month she was on her
way to America, where she was
sold to an employer who put
her to work in his kitchens. But
somehow she managed to smug-
gle with her a couple of gowns
and some of the jewels- which
she had stolen and hidden in
her room.
Having spent many weary
months in Maryland, she decid-
ed to make a dash for freedom.
She knew all about Court life
from gossip in the servants'
quarters. She knew, too, how
great ladies dressed and behav-
ed. Wrapping her stolen tro-
phies in a bundle, she fled on
foot to another state. There,
with an accomplice, she let it
be known that a sister of the
Queen Charlotte of England
was soon to visit the district.
The rich. landowners were all
agog to be the first to entertain
the "princess," and Sarah Wil-
son soon had a long list of in-
vitations. With great skill she
contrived to "arrive" at night,
with one maidservant. This inay
• Sound' strange to da y, but in
those days the people in the
remoter parts of America knew
very little of royal etiquette.
For quite a while the "prin-
cess" duped the district, living
free at all the best houses.
Then came the tell-tale slip of
paper, and once more she was
on the run. She was eventual:y
caught at Charleston, South
Carolina, and was taken back
to where she belonged.
But once again this amazing
young woman escaped, though
this time she slid not pretend
to Ix a princess. She simply
told people that she was an
English lady. For a while she
managed to live by her wits and
(hen, with a stroke of luck, she
'found herself in a town garri-
soned by a crack English regi-
ment,
Among the officers of that
regiment was William Talbot, a
kinsman of the nobleman who
had sentenced her to be trans-
ported, Wearing her best gown,
Sarah Wilson was. introduced to
the young officer, At that point
she dramatically disappears from
history, All records of her cease
--• except one important fact:
she married William Talbot t

the forehead, allowing it to re-
main overnight,
Q. How clan 1 prevent the un•
sightly crease that often results
when trousers have been hang.
lug for some time on a wire coat
banger?
A. One way is to place a news-

gently, and fasten it with paper
clips al the bottom.
Q. How can I keep leather lug•

gets at Hamilton Works in the past ."'Ihe Canadian steel industry is vir-
year," Me. Ifilton said, "about 3 per out of the barbed wire bu iness,
cent higher than the previous record
set in 1956. Including steel ingots pur-
chased for further processing and re-
ceived from customers for conversions,
we rolled the equivalent of • 2,695,000
ingot tens, over 12 percent more than
we rolled in any previous year."
Mr. Hilton attributed these records
to several factors 'including n ccnsist-
ently high demand for basic steel as
a result of the general high level of
business in Canada curing 1959. Tech-
nological improvements such as the
use of self -fluxing sinter in production
of hot iron and more extensive use of
oxygen in open hearth furnaces helped
boost production levels to meet de-
mand,
While Stelco did not divert star
from its Canadian customers during
the strike in the United States that
strike forced some Canadian steel buy-
ers to lean more heavily on Canadian
steel producers in the second half of
the year.
Although Stelco's sales are also ex-
pected to reach new heights when 195b
have built up a surplus in many
countries. lIowever they have not
produced enough for the needs of the
world as there are many who never
have sufficient food.
2nd -Part time off -farm employment
may benefit agriculture by giving the
farmer some money to pay taxes, in-
terest, farm help in busy seasons and
the expensive machinery which Nips
in his production. Some people believe
that if all farmers refused to take any
off -farm employment they would nat-
urally produce more and the surplus
would be even greeter,
3rd -We don't want to be dictated to
by the Government or farm organiza-
tions by having them control our busi-
ness. 1f it was necessary we would
prefer control by the farm organiza-
tions.

and in parts of Canada nail business is
going the same way."
In looking ahead Mr. Hilton predict-
ed a good year for Stelco in 1960 when
the Company celebrates its 50th Anni-
versary. "Our order position is good
into the second quarter of the year and
on the assuption that Canadians wilt
continue to support Canadianjnade

WHY MAKE A NAIL
IN CANADA ...
... or a radio, or a stove, or a car, or any of
the thousands of products manufactured by
Canadian workmen?
By making these things ourselves, we have
earned a standard of living admired throughout
the world. Nearly half of all employed Cana-
dians work in manufacturing. Without our
factories we would be principally employed in
producing raw materials for other nations to
process.
We enjoy our present way of life because we
work not only on the land but also in modern
factories.
One way to maintain this is to buy Canadian -
made goods.

But Won't Accept It
Walk down any country road
in this region in late fall and
you will notice that one color
predominates, It is blue, in all its
varying shades, The hills in the
distance are dark blue. Nearer
at hand thele is the chalky blue
of wildberry canes. Violet turnip
tops dot the earth. Blue smoke
rises from burning cornstalks
and the last of the fall rubbish.
The sky is a dramatic blue; the
ehadows are deep blue.
The Amish farm women help
with chores and field work in
addition to their own heavy
schedule in house, poultry yard,
and dairy; yet most of them cast
about for some way to earn more
money. A larger flock of hens
in egg production is one way. And
Trina, always resourceful, has
flats of mushrooms in her cellar
that add to her income on market
rlr.ys, since housewives in town
have found how superior in size
her mushrooms are. And this past
spring she went into partnership
with Anna and Hilda in an iris -
root project that really pays.
With a plot of ground no big-
ger than a good - sized living
room, the partners grew as many
as a hundred different varieties
of iris. The roots sell for fifty
cents or more, and each bulb in-
creases from two to ten times
each season, There is a terrific
demand for all the later hybrids,
especially the pinks, the reds,
the blacks, and the browns. Word
has spread of the six-inch blooms
the girls grow, some with red
beards, others with ruffled
edges, and people come miles to
see and buy iris.
And why---this---preoccupation
with money -making among a sect,,
whose needs cannot be as great'
as if they followed fashion's
dictates, or traveled far from
home? The simple truth is that
the Amish economy has under-
gone a radical change recently,
and all of then are feeling the
pinch. This carne about when
Congress extended the Social
Security system to include farm-
ers. Instead of helping, it has
worked a hardship on them.
Such Bible passages as 1 Tim -
thy 5:8 and others like it have
always been their criterion for
taking care of their own, How
well they have succeeded in this
is attested by the fact that re-
cords show not a single case of
an Amishman seeking aid outside
his church. So, in their troubles
with the Old Age and Survivors
Insurance system, they are un-
willing participants in an ex-
panded security they did not
need. Yet they must pay up.
The Amish Aid Society is
church -directed, and it is to this
fund that members turn in times
of need. Members are assessed
by the deacons according to their
lax statements when the fund
needs money, and the only call
is for the care of the poor or
for members who have suffered
property damage. Before the
society was established, help was
given by individuals who contri-
buted livestock, lumber, grain,
clothing, canned goods, or what-
ever was needed from their own
supplies. The Aid Society pro-
vides a much better way of help-
ing, But when Social Security
payments are added to aid dues,
the budget must be revised some-
how. And the sad part is that
the payments to the government
will never be collected back in
benefits. It is not their "way."
Amos told a recent gathering
of Amish farmers, "Our fore-
fathers came to America to es-
cape the unbearable religious per-
seoutlon that resulted because of
their refusal to bear arms for
any reason whatsoever. This we
All know." And in his role of
peacemaker he reminded them
that, "In this country our wishes

people served in hospitals and
in many other ways. Many offer-
ed themselves as human guinea
pigs in the research for new and
better ways to protect human
life. But we were allowed n
special privilege when we were
not required to bear arms.
"Now we have a choice to

order could not prevail, yet we
should not question the new."

writes Mabel Slack Shelton in
The Christian Science Monitor.
Amos and Eli plan to add to
their incomes this winter by sell-
ing off some timber, The small
sawmill in this locality is owned
by an Amish school leader who
buys logs from the surrounding
farmers. Trees are cut down
with hand saws and the logs are
dragged to the mill by horse-
drawn sleds or wagons. The mill
is a lively place, surrounded by
logs and lumber and rutted sled
paths. A gasoline engine furnishes
power, saws whine, sawdust falls,
and payments are in money. It
means long days of hard work

A new cheese factory close at
hand which will require milk
from at least two thousand
farmers in this part of the state
assures a good income from that
quarter, And a visit to the plant
made for an entertaining day re•
cently.
The very words "cheese fac-
tory" somehow connote elfin
jollity, And while the workers
at the plant are certainly not
elves, they had many a jolly
legend about their art of cheese.
making. One of their most glee•
ful tales was about how the first
batch of cheese attempted in the
bright, new plant turned out to
be a mess. The finicky bacteria
required to seta Match of cheese
to "working" found the spick-
and-span quarters too inhospita-
ble. They refused to work. What
to do? Everyone was frantic.
Shelving and woodwork from an
old plant were brought in haste,
and even old, tangy cheese was
smeared on the immaculate walls.
The priming clone, all waited
feverishly while they ran through
another hatch of milk. ,Ja!
Cheese!
Driving hone with samples
of some unusually mild Camem-
bert, Trina was led to say that
it should go fine as an accom-
paniment for lemon butter on hot
toast. The evolution of cheese
from milk, any kind of cheese ex-
cept Schmierkaese, is a secret be-
yond my ken. But I do know how
my neighbors make lemon Nut-
ter, that ambrosial spread. They
combine three beaten eggs with
two cups of sugar and three
lemons, using the juice and grat-
ed rind, and one-fourth pound of
butter or margarine, and stir and
cook the mixture over low heat
until it thickens.
We use it on toast, on tiny
rolled pancakes, or even as a fill-
ing for white cake layers. And
Trina was correct in thinking
lemon butter might have an af-
finity for mild, fresh cheese
They go excellently together,
When the Pennsylvania Dutch
people say "spread" they mean
Lattwaerrlek, their won rich,
dark apple butter. To our way
of thinking, lemon butter de-
serves a title of its own that is
as universal, The recipe is over
a hundred years old,
Nearing home after our drive

to a small, wheeled frame, it can
be hitched by a belt to a corn
sheller or a silage chopper, or to
Trina's hand -power washing ma-
chine. Rejected by others as too
old-fashioned, it has somehow
found favor with the Amish bis-
hops, who allow its use. Basically
it represents the same source of
energy which they find worldly
under the hood of a car, yet if
this has occurred to them they
have found some way to over-
look its implications.
For this we are grateful. De.
light in work for work's sake is
an outstanding Aniish trait, but
there are limits to what one man
can do in a day, So the sound of
an outmoded engine is sweet to
our cars, since we know it helps
one who richly deserves help,

Saved From Death
By Love Letter
Suicide seemed the only way
out of his troubles to a young
Chinese as, grim -faced, he sat
alone in his shabby little ba
chelor room on the eighth floor .
of a Hong Kong building re-
cently.
His girl friend had left him,
he was out of a job and he owed
considerable rent. He knew it
was the coward's way out, but
he had made up his mind.
He would climb out through
the window on to the wide
ledge and then drop to his
death.
The young man took a lust
glance round the untidy roost,
his eyes resting for a few mo-
ments on the portrait of his
pretty but faithless girl friend
which stood on the mantelpiece
Then slowly he clambered
through the window on to the
ledge. There he paused, appall-
ed by the sight of the hundreds
of busy people passing to and
_to along the main street below
Then he suddenly remember-
ed he had left the girl no fare.
well note. But it was all right—
he could scribble it here on the
ledge, drop it back into the
room and then plunge to eter-
nity on to the pavement below.
He began to write the note
in pencil taking his time. The
dour of his room was locked,
Nobody could stop him now. A
few minutes could make no.
difference.
Suddenly he was startled to
hear a voice addressing him
from a window close to his. It
had been silently opened by an
official who was appealing to
him to get back into his room.
The young man shook his
head violently, finished the
note while the official still
pleaded with him and then said:
"Please deliver this to the lady
whose name and address I have
written down."
He stretched out his hand to
give it to the man, The official,
confident because his own legs
were being held firmly by a
colleague, leaned more than
half way out of his window
and, seizing the Chinese by the
wrists, pulled him to safety with
one tremendous heave.
There are many other true-
li'fe stories which , prove that
suicide is not so easy to conn -
mit as some people seem to
think,
French police still chuckle
over the sequel to the amazing
but vain suicide attempts of a
smart and pretty showgirl not
long ago.- Why this redhead
with • the fiery temperament
wanted to do away with herself
remains a mystery, but she cer-
tainly tried hard.
She was first spotted by a
farm worker as she floundered
in three feet of water in a lone-
ly stretch of river in Southern
France. Amazed, he watched
her stick her head under the
water three times and swallow
before coming, gasping, to the
surface again.
-Plunging into the water, he
grabbed the girl and escorted
her back to the 'farm.
A week later she made an-
other attempt in another river,
This time a gendarme spotted
her clothes on the bank and
then saw her acting strangely in
the water. He ordered her to
come out. She refused and call-
ed out: "Please leave me to
drown myself!" It was only
when he threatened to shoot
her if she did not obey him that
she emerged. "I try so hard,
but always 1 start to swim
when I begin to swallow water,"
she complained,
She made no more attempts to
die. Today she is happily mar-
ried to a French peasant. They
have three daughters — all
good swimmers!
Despondent because an army
pension he had applied for had
not come through, a Swansea
man decided to hang himself.
But the old rope he was using
broke suddenly. This made him
reflect and abandon the attempt.
Next morning the post
brought his long-awaited letter
awarding him $300 down and a
pension of $10 a week,
As the last notes of the High
Mass echoed round Notre Dame
Cathedral a few weeks ago, a
gaunt young Italian student put
a pistol to his chest and fired.
Priests and tourists rushed to
the wounded man and a doctor
was called. Later he told his
story, saying his heart was
broken by a lovely woman with
whom he had come to Paris.
She had left him soon after
their arrival, For days he had
vainly searched the streets for
the woman he loved. In his
pocket was a letter and her
photograph. Said the letter:
"My heart breaks; I cannot sup-
port this pain much longer."
The young lover survived. It
was the first time anyone had
tried to commit suicide in the
cathedral's 700 - year - old pre-
cincts.
Later, holy water was sprin-
kled on the spot.
Grief, shame, remorse and ex-
cessive poverty — these are the
main causes of attempted sui-
cides, according to Dr. Harry
M. Warren, of New York, He
ought to know, for he has sav-
ed 30,000 people from suicide
through his national Save -A -

ating since 1907,

He Makes Suits
By WART) CANNEL
NEA Staff Correspondent
This is the case of a Sicilian
tailor named Angelo Litrico,
why he left Sicily to come to
Rome and what happened to
him there,
"You must understand," he
said, "I love my home in Sicily.
But 1 was 26 years old and had
24 younger brothers and sisters.
And besides being crowded, it
was quite nervewracking to re-
member everybody's name,
"So I packed my scissors and
needles and tape measure and
came to Rome to look for fame,
fortune and a job. That was five
years ago,"
Now, as everybody knows, the
city of Rome Is owned by a
number of Italians who have
sublet it to American movie
producers, writers and stars. So
it was not long before young
Litrico got an order for a suit
from Marlon Brando.
It was heady success for any
treatment, however. Research
workers used the venom of the
tiger snake in on experiment de-
signed to spread a rapid infection
of "Golden Staph" through the
bodies of mice, 13ut far from
spreading the disease, the venom
had the opposite effect, It re-
leased agents in the blood which
knocked out the deadly staph
bacteria,
Now this piece of luck is be-
ing exploited. Soon, pathologists
hope, it will lead to rapid method
of countering the danger of staph
infection in hospitals,

Farmers gave themselves a
workout when they came to Chi-
cago for the national convention
of the American Farm Bureau
Federation, They tussled with
the problem of finding a way to
control the current crop sur-
pluses which threaten their in-
come and at the same time re-
tain their -freedom. No easy an-
swer was forthcoming.
* • •
How serious they were in their
efforts to find a better ,f arm pro-
gram than the present one could
be read in their faces as they sat
listening to the economists they
had invited to address them. If
you looked over the audience you
were struck by their expressions
— intent, sometimes critical, but
always absorbed in the learned
papers of such speakers as a Fed-
eral Reserve Bank economist and
a Purdue University economics
brofessor,
* • *
Not a few of these commercial
farmers have studied agricultur-
al economics in college, Charles
B. Shuman, farmer -president of
the Farm Bureau, has a master's
degree in this field, as have some
other farmers here. Others have
not gone beyond high school in
their studies, but they come here
bent on, learning more,
All have ideas of their own
and many are ready to move to
the microphone and argue with
the experts.
"I'd like to see you folks give
tis a simple answer," a young
farmer from North Carolina said
to the panel of speakers at one
sessions"I don't want to go home
by way of Hong Kong."
"I'd gladly go to Hong Kong
if I could find a simple answer; •
there is none," aa1 economist in
the group replied.
The critical farmer, W. A. Mc-
Farland, of Durham, N.C,, said
he figures that the free market
is the best means for controlling
surpluses. His philosophy is that
if you've got "a burning desire to
be a farmer" you can make a
go of it without government help
— and interference.
After the session this corres-
pendent found out how he came
by this philosophy, He started
farming with a four -acre tobacco
allotment, found it wasn't suffi-
cient to make him a living even
if he sold his crop at 100 per
cent of parity, So he went to a
local banker and told his story,.
The banker looked over young
Mr. McFarland's assets and told
•him cheerfully: "YOU'VE got
about $200 less than nothing."
But 11e made the farmer a loan,
knowing what kind of a plan he
was dealing with:
• . • ' 4
Mr, McFarland proved a good
risk. Today 11e farms 700 acres
planted in a variety of crops,
feeds. 50 head of cattle, sells
certified seed. He says a man's
goal should not. be security, but
opportunity, writes Dorothea
Icahn Jaffein the Christian
Science Monitor,
• • 4
Moderator of the panel at this
session was another farmer who
believes in reliance upon , the
free market, Louis A. Rozzoni,
president of the California Farm
Bureau, came to this country
from Itrly at the are of 17 with
50 cents in his pocket, When he
recently became' president of the
California Farm Bureau he turn-
ed over to his sons the manage-
ment of 3500 acres of vegetable
cropland, along with a herd of
livestock.
Blond, broad -shouldered Mr.
Rozzoni, speaking wth a trace of
Italian accent, made an effective
plea for less government regula-
tion.
"Why does a man want to stay
FROSTY FACE — His face mask

rapher Warren Jackman mans

When you make a wrong deci-
sion, economic law catches you
up fast. Ile told of a time when
he Nought cattle mainly because
his neighbors were buying. He
paid too much, When prices fell
and left hint with costly cattle,
he slopped buying, "1 didn't
have to have a law t0 control me,
I was told at the market place
I had no business to buy,"
Mr. Rozzoni admitted 0161 a
solution of the farm problem
based on return to free markets
would not be pleasant. Ile fa-
vored helping farmers make the
adjustment in extreme cases,
In an open meeting of the
resolutions committee the pros
and cons of government control
were freely argued. One young
man, James Boyd, went so fat
as to quote Patrick Henry re-
garding liberty, and he got a
hand.
Other farmers who spoke and
looked like city businessmen in-
sisted that production control is
necessary because production in-
creases faster than population
.and new uses. They contended
that other segments of the econ-
omy — labor and business — re-
strict output and held that agri-
culture alone cannot move along
the path of no control and remain
prosperous.
Hangover Cure
—Walk Into River!
Does Friday the Thirteenth —
hold terrors for you? For hun-
dreds of years thirteen has been
regarded as an unlucky number
by millions of people. But not
the Japanese.
It is not that they aren't super-
stitious — far from it — but for
some reason thirteen has no
sinister significance for thein,
Their unlucky number is four.
"Four" in Japanese is shi, and
this word also means "death."
The Japanese don't worry
about walking under ladders,
opening umbrellas indoors or
spilling salt. Black cats mean
nothing to them, But ask a Japa-
nese to be photographed stand-
ing between two other people
and there's a pretty good chance
that he'll decline. It's unlucky.
So is spending too much of one
day facing the north-east, or ly-
ing in a bed which runs from
east to west instead of north to
south.
In Japan it's unlucky to drink
hot tea poured on top of cold —
condemned murderers used to do
this in olden times; it's unlucky
to see a snake unless you hastily
mumble aburawakasu kasasabu-
rendo. What does it mean? Noth-
ing, But it is supposed to save
you from disaster!
If a Japanese has a hangover.
or is prone to headaches, there
is an excellent superstition which
is deemed to bring relief. He
simply puts on a straw hat, cov-
ered with Japanese symbols, and
wades into the nearest river.
When he is in deep enough for
the hat to float away, he emerges
and his headache should have
disappeared. The secret is in the
symbols, which mean, "Head-
ache, go-away!"
The conversation at a party
was about dieting. "Yes," said a
guest, as 11e tucked into a large
meal, "I've eaten beef all my life
and I'sn as strong as an ox."
Said another, "I've been eating
nothing but fish for six months
and I can't swim a stroke."

Strengthening New Churches
Acts 14:19-28
Memory Selection: The Lord
direct your hearts into the love
of God, and into the patient wait-
ing for Christ. 2 Thessalonians
3:5. --
The real testing of a soldier is
'not , en the parade grounds but
in the peat of the battle. There
his worth shows up, Paul and
Barnabes kik were persecuted in
Antioch of '!isidia and natty ex-
pelled. At Iconium many be.
lieved .in Jesus Christ but some
Gentilee and Jews plotted to
stone hem, So Paul and Barna-
bas wtnt on to Lystra. After the
healing `d6f, the cripple there, the
people want.&;. e'lreat thein as
gods. But Jews of Arrit'1 b• -.and
Iconium who had opposed the,.n
came and persuaded the people
to stone Paul, Then they dragf;ed
him out of the city believing hint
to be dead. But after a titre e,
while the disciples stood aroun,4_ . ,
him, he revived and ,"ot to his
feet. "'�!■�
One might expect that Paul
tvould probably keep going east
to his home in Tarsus. Hadn't he
had enough of this treatment?
But, no, He went back into Lys-
tra for the night and the next
day he went on to Derbe. After
ministering there, he carne back
to Lystra, Iconium and Antioch,
the cities where he had estab-
lished churches but from which
he had later to flee on account of
persecution, He met with the
new disciples' in each place,
strengthening them and "exhort-
ing them to continue in the faith,
and that we must through much
tribulation enter into the king-
dom of God." He ordained elders
in each church, prayed with fast-
ing and commended them to the
Lord on whom they had be-
lieved,
With a leader like Paul, it Is
no wonder that the Gospel spread
throughout Asia Minor. Here
was a man who counted not his
life dear unto himself. He la-
boured in faith. To present Jesus
Christ was the great passion of
his life. Those who became dis-
ciples he counted as his spirit-
ual children. He loved them. His
spirit toward them is described
in 1 Thessalonians 2:7.8: "We
were gentle among you, even as
a nurse cherisheth her children:
so being affectionately desirous
of you, we were willing to have
imparted unto you, not the gos-
pel of God only, but also our
own souls, because ye were dear
unto us."
We need more men and women
today who are committed to
Christ as Paul was.
