BIRTHS HAMM—In Clinton Public Hospital on Sunday, January 24, 1560, to Alt•, and .r' ;{atnm, a son (stillborn) Looking Down On A Colored Dawn It was very quiet, but light enough now. Still no one came, I stood in the dew and pulled the propeller; the Aeronca burst Into life, Watchful of the whir- ring and almost invisible blades, I removed the wheel chocks and climbed in, and as I fastened the safety belt I taxied out and away from the hangar. The wheels kicked up sprays of dery from the grass onto the undersurface of the wings. I took otT and rose into silky smoothness, not a ripple or a breath of aft disturbed my wings. The aroma of the morn- ing was strong and sweet. The village lights glittered, and the hills were dark and clear. The eastern sky wa.. glowing with the hidden fire below the hori- zon, and the lire was rO sleeted in the dozen of farmyard ponds which aro scattered over the land. I looked closely at the ponds, puzzled, for etch had something hanging over it, a imall pink crown. Then, as 1 gained alti- tude and dew over one of them, I saw that it was a ring of mist rising from the surface of the water in a perfect doughnut shape, which coiled up and rose from the center outward, like a smoke ring blown up from gigantic lips. They were every- where; e ch pond was lidded with its own pink doughnut, all at the sante height, each fitted in size to its pond, and all rising up into the air. Then the sun came, jumping over the edge of the world and a moment later a ray shot across For Chair or Table Gy r4444.14164.4 In crisp white or a colour, one large pansy makes a grace- ful chair back or place mat.

While I circled and watch- ed, they rose quickly as the tvarm th of the sun fell upon them, They broke up into frag- ments and faded away, and were gone, The village lights were turn- ed up now, The twin chimneys on the river bank belched up black smoke. Someone down there was firing the furnaces, I supposed. Two graceful plumes rose together into the quiet sky, and together they curved side- ways and drifted in the pressure of the light wind. , . Many tithes since the flight of the doughnuts I have taken off in the early morning, either to go somewhere, or just for fun. Al- most always it is quiet, the air of heevy, rich quality, and some- times strange and wonderful things are to be seen in the dawn sky. I have seen the mist over the ponds in corkscrews, spiral- ing upward, and once I found a delicate memberane of cloud, in- finitely thin and fragile, a sort of skin, Once, a little blob of vapor came sailing by, a little sphere a yard or so across, all by itself, And there is always peace, and freedom and loneliness, in the morning sky, — From "A Sky of My Own," by Molly Bern- heim. Tumbling Into Debt Head -Over -Heels A man went into a small loan company the other day and got a $180 loan. Seems he wanted to buy a new TV set, had $50, and needed the balance. "How much will it cost?" asked the borrower, "Six per cent," said the lender, "to be paid back in monthly in- stallments of $15,90," The loan was negotiated as thousands of similar loans are, and the borrower went away happy. What he didn't realize was that since he would have the use of the full $180 for only a month the real interest wouldn't be 6 per cent, it would total up to over 11 per cent. A newly married couple went into the finance company to ar• range a mortgage on their dream house. The pleasant fellow behind the counter said yes, they could have the mortgage — the rates were 6 per cent for $10,000 over 20 years. "I thought interest rates were nearer 4 per cent," said the young man. He was embar- rassed, for this was his first big loan, but he was determined, too. The pleasant man behind the counter explained rates have gone up — "tight money," you know. The young man did some figur- ing. Four per cent interest on $10,000 for 20 years would add $4,500 to the total cost of their dream house. That seemed high enough, but 6 per cent would bring it closer to $7,000. This par- ticular couple decided to rent, writes Richard L, Strout in the Christian Science Monitor. Let's take a third illustration: The easy-going Smiths suddenly discovered after Christmas they were hocked right up to their necks in installment debts and needed a quick loan to tide them over. Smith got credit from a loan company and borrowed $200, "The interest?" asked Mrs. Smith, "Not bac! — 3 per cent!" Smith answered, What he didn't say — if he understood it — was that his state has no antiusury law and he was paying 3 per cent interest a month, in other words 36 per cent a year. The American public is tumbl- ing into debt head over heels. Most automobiles are so financed and most buyers seem to have only vague notions of the in- terest. The transaction is "$76.50 a month and the old ear," or something like that, "The constable gave you the usual warning, I suppose?" asked the magistrate of the prisoner. "Yes, sir, He said he'd wring my neck if I didn't come quietly."

Claxk.¢ Some weeks ago a tninist: r addressing a woman's meeting warned those present to beware of "the barren-ness cal a busy life." His warning was meant to apply to women who are over- active in social life; who offi- cially take part in so many organizations that they have little spare time to devote to their families, or to reading, or to the quiet reflection that is vitally necessary to all of us• if we would but realize it. I quite agreed with what the minister said. I have known fa- milies — and I am sure you have too — where the children are starved for personal atten- tion to their little problems be- cause mother is too tired, or too busy to listen, On the other hand, thinking about it lately I have come to the conclusion that too far east is west; that an- other kind of busyness can also lead to "a barren life," That is to say women who are so ab- sorbed in what goes on within their own four walls and have n o interest o r knowledge of what goes on beyond the con- fines of their own home lead a "barren" life just as surely as the over -active club woman. The following instances will explain what I mean. You remember the ice-stJrn between Christmas and New Year that left thousands of hones in Ontario without hydro and consequently without heat, Well, at that time Partner was speaking to one of our neigh- bours and asked if her husband had got back all right from a business trip the day before or had the storm delayed him, And the answer ,ca me — "What storm?" Incidentally t h e hus- band had phoned that he was staying over as the roads were so icy. That was all she knew about it. Apparently this young couple do not take a daily paper and, as far as I can make out, the girl, who has two small chil- dren, does not bother to listen to the news, either by radio or television, So, if the hydro, clad suddenly gone off around here she wouldn't have known. w :at had caused the power failure or how widespread the trouble, Nor would she have been prepared for it in any way, It s:,,ne'd incredible to Inc that -h:' .!mild know nothing :a._, S..:r..S ariF .14;ffI il•)1 "1 li�r,ilt.fne, r. i ePt 1 l ,.n . _,,.,...w1 5.t7 "That's so beautiful, Doctor. Could you read !till again?" about the storm but 1 came to the conclusion that she was a little unusual. Later, however, I heard of another family, west of Toronto, who had received a long distance call from friends in New York asking if the fa- mily was all right. They had been so anxious about them af- ter listening to the newscasts about the dreadful ice -storm in Ontario. Again the question was asked — "What storm?" Wouldn't that set you back on your haels after taking the trou- ble to put in a long distance call? Well, after heating of those two instances I began to won- der how many people there are who pay so little attention to the news of the day and' to what goes on around them. Daughter says I would be surprised if I really know! I wonder, too, how anyone can be content to live in 'such a small world of their own snaking — for it must be a small world where the only in- terests are those concerned with housekeeping, g e t ting meals, looking after children and tvatching television — all 'ex- cept the news apparently. Inci- dentally hew can a mother keep pace with the interests and out- look of her growing children if she herself does not keep abreast of the times. Surely it shouldn't be too much of an effort to lis- ten to, or road the news, at least once a day. After all in the case of weather sometimes to be forewarned is to be fore- armed. Or could be. New Year's Day we had a middle-aged couple here who were among the many who had been without heat for two days. They coped with it by buying a small box stove which they set up ih the basement, substituting a stove pipe for the oil furnace pipe in the chimney. For Light they were fortunate — they had two Coleman lanterns left over from the days of country living. They had only themselves to worry about as they are a child- less couple. So, although they were caught unprepared that one time a similar occasion will find them ready to cope with the situation as soon as it oc- curs. However, there are some near - disasters which are impossible to foresee. This is what Daugh- ter had to contend with last n.;..g1. She had put the dog out for a run just before bedtime and was straightening up the kitchen when she was suddenly conscious of a strong odour of skunk, She rushed to the front door but the damage was done, Honey was there all right but so was the odour. Out came the tomato juice but Honey is old and catches cold so easily it could not be used too generous- ly. For the same reason Honey could not be sent down to the basement. The only advice I could offer was to leave Honey at home H they came to see us during the next few days! 4 Opera Broadcasts Then And Now One wintry day 50 years ago, tenor Enrico Caruso stood 011 the stage of the Metropolitan Opera House and opened up with an aria from "Pagliacci," Sixty-four miles away in Bridgeport, Conn., a pioneer radio ham pressed the earphone of his primitive radio set tightly to his head and with great difficulty made out the opening bars of "Vesti la giubbL," This was the first opera broad- cast in history, In the half - century since, the 1VTet's radio au- dience has grown from a hand- ful of wireless owners to a loyal band of more than 12 million, While other more popular shows have long since disappeared from the air waves, the opera, whicn became a permanent fixture in 1931, retains its faithful follow- ing. In New York recently, com- mentator MVlilton Cross, whose round and resonant "Good after - non, opera lovers across the na- tion" has introduced 564 opera programs, ren)insced about some of the more curious devotees of the Saturday afternoon broad- casts now hear on CI3S. "Take the horseman out West who strapped a portable radio to his saddle before riding out on the range each Saturday," said the burly, ruddy -faced vet- eran of 28 years of Met broad- casts. "He was one of the real zealots. But there are others. For instance, the gentleman in Lub- bock, Texas,- who after hearing • that the Met was installing new seats had one of the old ones shipped to his house. And then there was that little old lady in the Middle West who had a spe- cial black velvet dress which she put on every Saturday. It made her feel as if she were sit- ting right there in the Diamond Horseshoe. "Even though the people out there can't see what's going on, I'm sure that the power of the music enables them to feel the same things that I do sitting there in my little booth on the Grand Tier. I should be tired by now, but opera still affects me emotionally. For example, when I heard Birgit Nilsson in a 'Tristan' rehearsal, she was so magnificent that 1 broke down and wept. Opera has always affected me this way and I'm sure it always will." —From NEWSWEEK. Keeping Flowers In Bloom Longer Gift plants such as poinsettia, cyclamen and chrysanthemums flower brilliantly but briefly. Given care, however, the bright blooms will outlast the holiday season. According to G. R. Sny- der, of C -I -L's Agricultural Chemicals, they can be coaxed to remain in flower for about eight weeks. The large scarlet or white leaf- like bracts — that's what the botanist calls then — of the poinsettia will cheer your living room for some time if you pay attention to its needs. You roust give the plant good light and a temperature of about 65 degrees Fahrenheit. The soil in the pot should be kept. moderately moist. If the roots become dry or it is subject to drafts the bot- tom leaves will turn yellow or fall off, Cyclamen does best in a slightly cooler location. The tem- •perature should be from 55 to 60 degrees F., and the plant kept well watered, Don't be alarmed if the tither appears above the soil, This prevents the leaf and flower stents from rotting. Both these plants require am- ple tcedin';. Usually they come well fertilized from the Ilari,,t's. however, in addition, a dilute solution of tvHor — soluble plant foot! may be given them every three n1' four wo-ks Chrysanthemums forced in the greenhouse for gift plants arc not as hardy as the outdoor ones 1 t flower in the fall. '1'hcy need lit- tle attention, but usually only,: last about four weeks. Q. Are all plates removed from a dinner table before set'v1tt; dessert? A.

COMMONWEALTH'S TALLEST — Model shows the Canadian Bank of Commerce Building as it will look when built beside Mont- repl's Windsor Hotel, The 45 -story structure, designed by Peter Dickinson Associates of Toronto, will be the tallest in the British Commonwealth, Bride Arrived On Crocodile's Back One afternoon a stranger ar- rived at a Somaliland village. He was of the sane tribe but from the other end of the country. He gave the villagers all the news picked up on his journey, was given food and tea and made `welcome. When evening came they were sitting around the fire when sud- denly he called out excitedly: "Look up there on the hill!" On the hillside stood a shining figure, fantastic in the darkness, "Look, it is the Light from Allah!" he cried, He tore his hair, prostrated himself, forehead on ground, and prayed loudly. The whole village followed suit, "Come, let us go up on to the hill and share in Allah's light, Allah's beauty, Allah's goodness, Allah's blessing!" he added, Off they all stormed, up the hillside. They returned carrying a man, fighting each other to help carry him and to get close enough to touch him. They knew him. He was their former Holy Man's son who had visited them before and was a dearly honoured guest. But never before had Allah's divine light, shone upon him. A miracle had occured, His father's power had descended upon him. .• • .John Buchholzer, who was in the village and witnessed this phenomenon, has written a vivid account of his travels in‘"Soma- liland — The Horn of Africa," His interpreter, Hassan, an old acquaintance of the Holy Man's son, eventually coaxed him to tell how he had stage-managed the light from "Heaven." • He had covered himself with a white, transparent cloth, wedged a strong torch on the ground between two stones, and stood over it. The stranger who had come to the village was his as- sistant, News of the miracle spread far and wide. People brought him flocks of goats and sheep, The Sultan sent him five camels laden with millet. To turn all this into .money the villagers gladly offered to drive the ani- mals to the nearest big market town, a day's journey away. Counting his gain •there and checking the account, ,the newly "ordained" Holy Man suddenly Balled to the auctioneer: "You have taken money for selling the beasts. Do you not know that those were my fath- er's beasts and my father was a Holy Man?" "I have taken the money• that is due to me in accordance with the law," the auctioneer replied, "and if your father was a Holy Man, then mine was, too." . "That is an outrage against my father," shouted the son, and the men from the village wailed: "What have You ' done, •what will happen now? The rains may not come, Our camels may fall sick," But the auctioneer turned his back and walked off, Two clays later the Sultan's sols • t,ii:RRY MENAGERIE if I zt . \ •-' :13..P!sen•P "My! Isn't It nice to have a our; ery fur the children!" and the chiefs of the villages which had sent gifts squatted around the Holy Man's son who sat on a stool under shady trees. They were a delegation formed 'to avert the fearful disasters that might follow the auctioneer's in- sult for a Holy Man only re- ceives and has to be treated with respect, even when he is dead, The Sultan's son proffered a handful of coins — the auc- tioneer's commission, The Holy Man's son refused them, saying: "My father's anger will strike this district. Never has he been treated thus." For hours they all begged him to accept the money, producing still more, pouring it at his feet, prostrating themselves, clinging to his knees, kissing his toes. When the coins had grown into a large heap he reluctantly agreed to accept. The givers went joyfully home with the good news that calamity had been averted. "And now," said Hassan envi- ously, "he'll go to Mogadishu and have a good time with the girls," Buchholzer also went on the trail of the crocodile men, a brotherhood of sorcerers who spread death and disaster along the Juba river, seeming to wield power over people's minds and animals. He was told by Somalis that they could induce people to mur- der each other, snake crocodiles eat certain people of their choos- ing, hurl curses over long dist- ances to strike their victims like lightning, tell a man that he would die the next day or at the next full moon, Experts in all the black arts, they were clever doctors and makers of medicines. For their best, made from the blood of infants, they stole and murdered children. The Italian authorities told him that there was something in these tales, for in the 1930s some crocodile men had been shot be- cause they made their trained crocs eat amen from a neighbour- ing village, An old Arab shopkeeper told Buchholzer of a crocodile man who fell in love with a girl down the river. When neither she nor her family would have anything to clo with him, he used his crocodile, which seized her when she went to the river for water. It did not, however, eat her. Placing her carefully on its back, it swam down -river escorted, by other crocs. All the way she shrieked in terror, but no one dared help her, The old Arab claimed to have seen the flotilla sailing down to the man's vil- lage, where he stood on the bank awaiting her. There she stayed, for neither she nor her family dared protest about her abduction, This Arab put Buchholzer in touch with a crocodile man who guided him to the crocodile men's village, There he witnessed some of their grisly mystic rites and dances, and watched one of them call crocodiles •from the river with a singing chant. Three' came and lay in front of him like well- trained dogs ,and were fed with live goats. Baby crocs are captured as they emerge from their eggs and trained until the relationship is like that between a man and. an obedient dog, How Can 1? By Anne Ashley Q.

Russia Loaded With Hidden Wealth The work of a large group al Soviet geologists, who assisted by some 300,000 volunteer help- ers, have surveyed the country from the Pacific to the Carpa- thian mountains and from the Arctic to the Caspian Sea has opened new and glittering vistas for the Soviet Union's economic f uture. More than oue-tenth of the personnel — close to 40,000 — were trained geologists, Of the remainder, the majority were young people for whom the prospect of turning geology into a patriotic endeavor spelled ad- venture and romance, In East Siberia's province of Irkutsk for instance, more than 10,000 peo- ple offered their help. Popular enthusiasm for ge- ology is one of the reasons for the surprisilag success of Soviet geological exploration. Other reasons are the vast untapped natural riches of a still largely unexplored country, the sub- stantial sums which the Soviet state allocates to geology, and the scale of geological survey- ing. Last year's results were sum- med up by Minister of Geology Pyotr Y, Antropov in Izvestia, "Although only part of our oil reserve has been discovered," wrote Mr. Antropov, "it now ap- pears that our Central Asian re- publics alone have oil deposits of the same order as the coun- tries of the Middle East." Oil, which the Soviets need not merely for fuel, but more and more for their petroleum- based industrial chemistry and for export, is only one of the minerals which last year's sur- veys have ascertained in new locations. Other discoveries were hot carbonaceous mineral springs in the vicinity of the Central Asian metropolis of Tashkent, which already are being used for urban heating purposes and are ex- peeted to save some 40,000 car- loads of coal a year, writes Paul Wohl in The Christian Science Monitor, Large new deposits of natural gas, iron ore, and nonferrous ores also have been found, Es- pecially "interesting" are said to be new lead deposits in the Krasnoyarsk province of West Siberia, new oil fields in West Kazakhstan, and rich gold veins in the Chukchi National Okrug which occupies the little known territory between the Autono- mous Yakut Republic—hitherto the principal gold producer of the U.S.S.R. — Kamchatka and the Bering Straits. One party of geologists dis- covered a large outcropping of diamonds near the Anabar River in the northwestern corner of Yakutia. This was the second major discovery of diamonds in this part of the U.S.S.R. Earlier discoveries,_ about 500 miles fur- ther east, were claimed to equal • the diamond riches of South Africa, Most important from the point of view of transport economy was the confirmation of large oil fields and deposits of natural gas in West Siberia and in the Yakut Republic. Siberia hither- to lacked oil. Once these new reserves are exploited, Siberia will no longer depend upon oil shipments from west of the Urals—a distance of more than 2,000 miles, This would be espe- cially valuable for East Siberia which is practically beyond the reach of the rapidly advancing pipeline across the Urals. Once the necessary oil and gas pipes have been laid, Yakut oil also could supply the Soviet Un- ion's strategic ports and indus- tries on the Pacific, which pres- ently depend on the inadequate oil yield of Sakhalin and have to be supplied by tankers from Black Sea ports over one of the world's longest shipping routes.

During the moments before Russia's cosmic rocket bit the noon, the radio aboard sent back a burst of valuable information about the nature of the earth's natural satellite. The most impor- tant bit of data: No magnetic field had been detected in the vi- cinity of the moon's face, at least within the limits. of the rocket's sensitivity. This report confirmed the view held by most scientists that the noon has a solid core. A liquid core, such as the one at the center of the earth, tends to act like a dynamo and creates a magnetic 'Hetet In the current issue of Physical R e v i e w Letters, however, a woman physicist offers a word of cta.ution.

This wind of electrically charg- ed particles would tend to cre- ate its own field, canceling out any magnetic field that might exist except "for a very thin layer, too close to the moon's sunny side to be detected by a fast-moving impacting rocket, According to Mrs. Neugebauer, no one should draw any conclu- sions about a lunar magnetic field until someone sends a rock- et 10 the dark surface of the moon, where the sun's radiation would have no effect.

Mix these ingredients with your hands, Spread the mixture in an oblong pan (13 x 91/2 x 2). Bake 15 minutes in a preheated oven at 400° F. Take from oven, stir with spoon to form crumbs, This makes 21/2 cups. You can either cool it and store in a covered container in the refrigerator for later use, or press the warns crumbs into a pie plate as a crumb crust. If you keep Butter Crunch for later use, here are some ways to try it. Make a pudding with pud- ding mix and, while it is •hot, pour it into a flat serving dish and sprinkle with 1 cup Butter Crunch. Serve with cream. Or pour chilled custard over cut-up fruit or berries, sprinkle with Butter Crunch, Here's an- other: Pour 2 cups sweetened spiced applesauce in a serving dish, Cover with 1/2 cup whipped cream, and sprinkle with 1 cup Butter Crunch. Serve with cream. It's grand on ice cream which has been covered with a sauce first.

Ike's Diplomats Worrying About Japanese Build -Up by Ray Cromley NEA Staff Correspondent Washington — (NEA) '— U.S. strategists have plans to make Japan an official cornerstone of defense planning for the Far East. First step: signing of the new Japanese -U.S. Security Treaty JAPAN'S Prime Minister Kish!, here January 19 with Prime Minister Nobusuke Kishi, Current U.S. defense strategy makes it crucial to keep the Japanese industrial base one of the world's strongest —out of Russian or Red Chinese hands. Red absorption would tip the world's economic balance of power dangerously the Red way. The new treaty will keep the United States air and naval bases in Japan, It commits the Japanese to fight side-by-side with the Americans in defending the islands. it ties them to the U.S, side. But note these less happy facts: • The treaty won't reduce U.S. defense costs in Japan. It in- creases them by at least the $30 million a year that Japan has been contributing to the support of U.S. forces there, • It doesn't commit the Japan- ese to modernize their forces to a point where Japan could han- dle its defense alone. although Americans feel Japan is now strong enough economically to carry out a massive moderniza- tion program. • The treaty doesn't commit the Japanese to come to the aid of the U.S. if America again gets involved in defense operations in Korea, Formosa or other points outside Japan, • It doesn't even commit Japan to serve as a repair base, staging ground or rear echelon site for American forces fighting in the Far East outside Japan. The use of Japan as a manus facturing, supply and rear eche- lon base cut U.S, supply lines thousands of miles — made it possible to keep U.S. farces from being thrown out of Korea in the peninsula fighting. Japan's resources would be crucial in most any future U,S, Central and North East Asia operations, U.S, defense men will have to "sell" Tokyo on changing these facts before Japan can be welded into the around-the-Sc.viet de- fense system the Pentagon is de- termined to build. Japan's down forces are cru- • cial:,to this goal, the U.S. plan- ners say, so long as the U.S. has such a limited capacity for brush wars t:nd such small ground forces, The treaty was the first and vital 'step, Pentagon planners were worried that Japan would not sign, The previous treaty was essentially a part of a deal tor giving ,Japan its independ- ence, This . is the first security Treaty the U.S, and Japan have worked out since Japan was given complete independence and could freely make her own decisions, U.S. State and Defense Depart- ment men had been concerned about reports of a Japaneses trend toward neutralism, There has been heavy criticism of U.S, Air and Navy forces being in Japan. There have been asser- tions that U.S. Air and Naval bases meant colonialism, There have been men ardently push- ing the thought that Japan should follow an independent world course on the Indian pat- tern. U.S. diplomats and military men have now stopped holding their colective breath, The Japanese Army has quiet- ly been built up to 170,000 men. It's better officered, better train- ed, has more initiative than' the Japanese forces that swept to Singapore, the Philippines and Indonesia in 1941-42, Its equip- ment is largely World War II type, It has no missile units. There's a national police reserve of 110,000, Japan has only a 100,000 -ton navy of shall ships and one sub- marine, It has an air force ;of' 1,064 planes — including 455 F-86 jets, With U.S. air and naval sup- port, it's estimated here, the Japanese could give even in- vading Russians a hard go. It's believed that they could tie up for a critical period of time a sizeable number of Soviet troops. U.S. strategy aims at encour- aging the Japenese to build up their army and to modernize with Japanese -built tanks, self- propelled artillery and missiles. They think the Japanese should do this modernizing primarily with their own funds — plus $110 million worth of U.S. aid, With modernization and an- other boost in Japanese troops plus U,S, air and sea aid, it's believed here, the Rusians might hesitate before attempting an in-. vasion of Japan. The Reds could take the islands If they were willing to pay top price, but the cost would be heavy, Perhaps it would be too heavy considering what the Soviets would face else- where in a war. Sponsors Like To Call The Shot! The Medicis of Madison Av- enue spent $783,000,000 of their clients' money last year to spon- sor TV programs, and one of their spokesmen wants to know if this doesn't entitle them to do some picking and choosing, We feel it does. Picking — but :tot pushing, The subject came up this week at the continuing Federal Com- munications Commission hear- ings on what's wrong with broad- cast programing, The sponsors' spokesman was Peter W. Allport, an officer of National Advertisers, Inc. Rod Serling, TV playwright, urged a nonintervention policy for sponsors, states an editorial in the Christian Science Monitor, Mr, Serling gave an example of what he meant, A sponsor that made cigarette lighters had once forced him to delete the line "Have you got a match?" from a script. He has recounted else- where the story of the rival auto- mobile sponsor who managed to have a view of the New York skyline exclude the Chrysler Building. These absurdities obviously boomerang against the sponsor who meddles, It would make much more sense for the networks to handle all programlig; then sell adver- tising time to the sponsors, who could choose their time slot to give them whatever type of pro- gram they feel would best reach and please the audience they are seeking. That would leave the integrity of the program and its creators protected from meddling. But the sponsor could choose the general fare his name and his share of the $783,000,000 would be associ- ated with, "Does your husband under- stand horse -racing?" "I'll say!

ISSUE 5 — 1960 Gimmicks That Help Sales Storekeeping is a competitive business and a good gimmick always helps to sell goods. This is why some shopkeepers some- times try to introduce a little eye-catching humour into their trade, A King's Cross fruiterer, who had his goods handled too free- ly, raised a few laughs and at- tracted more customers with the notice: "Please, madam, don't squeeze me until I'm yours." Not all customers saw the humour on the notice of a butcher in Sydney, Australia. Outside his shop he had a sign reading, "Why go elsewhere to be robbed?" On a busy street corner news- stand in St. Louis, newsvendor Ted Gatlin has a sign reading, "Twenty-five dollars Cash If, ) Fail to Thank You." He got the idea from a newly opened ser- vice station promising motorists free gasoline if the attendant failed to check their oil, Since Ted took over the stand three years ago his newspaper sales have jumped from three hundred daily to more than eight hundred, Many people have tried to catch him out, but so far none has made him forget his manners, • A Nor t h Country second- hand econd- hand car dealer displayed a notice stating that he would allow $150 in part -exchange 'or anything on four wheels.

Snowed In - With The Cow! a good day when you can sit in the kitchen rocker, a pussy- cat on your knee, and watch a snowstorm. It makes you inspec- tor -general of the elements, and lets both you and the cat medi- tate quietly on any number of things. I got to thinking of the time I was a youngster and got buried in the cowshed. Just such a storm as this, Difference was , it wasn't a _first storm We'd had some good ones that year already, and this one I mention added another couple of feet. It also demon- strated a grave error in our ar- chitecture, for we'd hung the cowshed door so it swung out. Iin the snow belt of Maine, this is silly, We'd widened some win- dows, and thought we had a pretty good place. When 1 came down into the kitchen that a.m., snow covered the house windows, so Mother had a lamp burning as she stir- red the porridge at the stove. Upstairs, there had been the noise of the wind and driving flakes, but here in the kitchen there was. no sound of the wel- ter outside. Insulated against noise, cold, and light, we were as snug as any Eskimo, and I pulled on my storm slothes and made ready for my morning trek out to chore the cow, I wasn't a six-footer then, and the drifts were. I slung the milk over one elbow, clutched a turn- ed -down barn lantern in that hand, and held the big wooden snow shovel in the other, Thus I wallowed to the shed, and it wasn't easy, I chug down, clear- ing room for the door to swing, and soon had it open far enough to squeeze in. It took more room for the 12 -quart milk pail than it slid for me. But I made it, pull- ed the door to, and shot the hasp. My cow, usually up and eager at the sound of approaching breakfast, was not ready for me that stormy morning, The snow had covered her windows, too, and there had been no warning that morning was come, As far as she knew, it was still last night. Abruptly, some intruder had violated her boudoir and surprised her. She started to get up about the time I squeezed through the door. A cow, you know, gels up hind -end foremost. It is an ana- tomical maneuver least designed to accommodate the style of EYE - CATCHING - Offbeat jewelry designer Sam Kramer stares through a trayful of. glass eyes in his shop in New York's Greenwich Village, He uses the unblinking wares in making weird jewelry designs. CROSSWORD monger in which noun usually' attaches her. When she gets down, her head stretched for- ward on her grain box and her body relaxed in the sweet com- fort of repose, she would do a lot better to stand up front-end first, This would save her from ramming her snout into the manger, and effect a manipula- tion more suited to the circum- stances: Instead, she hoists her stern aloft, and for the elevation thus gained she pays dearly on the bow, Given ample time to awake, shake off the sleepiness, and do the thing with dignity and poise, a cow can make out after a fashion, but when an ele- ment of urgency or surprise is added she goes all to pieces. So my cow, suddenly intruded thus upon, came to with a jerk and began to stand up. By the time she had brought her hind quarters to an alert, the door had closed behind ane, and it must have made her think she had been mistaken. Neither up nor down, she stood there wait- ing to see what might happen next, and decided at last the alarm had been false, She start- ed to lie down again just as I turned up the wick of the lant- ern and bathed the tie-up in the yellow kerosene glow. This brilliance convinced her it was morning, so she shifted to rise again. But then, she must have concluded lanterns were for night, and just as she con- vinced herself it was morning she reversed that decision and decided to lie clown again. After that, her thought processes went to pot, and 1 stood there in the shed and watched the stern end of my poor cow rising and lower- ing, so confused she didn't know dawn from dusk, When I spoke to her, she re- sponded, engaging her coordina- tion so she got her front end up the next time the hind end went by, and she turned and looked at me with sad eyes, questioning me silently as to how this all started. I brushed her down, speaking cajolingly as is the proper approach, but she was taut and distraught as I milked her, her ears laid back and her eyes bugged, A cow, thus wound up, usual- ly becomes a "hard" milker, and it took ine longer than usual to drain her. She was filling the pail, foam and all, at that time to about an inch from the top, and .I worried about toting that heft of splashing milk through the new snow to the house. In- deed, this thought made ane de- cide not to water her that morn- ing, for I'd have to lug her drink in a pail, I figured I'd let it go until afternoon, and do it leis- urely, after school, Then, of course, I found the snow had fallen and blown against any cowshed door, and I couldn't get out. I was trapped, by an out -swinging door in snow country, Mother, with bacon and eggs on schedule, would be dressing and feeding the younger ones, and it would be some time before she thought of ane, and could pull on heavy clothes to come and get ane. The froth on my pail of milk had settled corn- pletely by the time she came, called to ane through the door, and began digging away snow. • We didn't get bussed in those tines, and we all went to school that morning. After I had break- fast. We were all late, and any teacher' asked why, 1 told her, and she said on bad mornings I should start sooner, -By John Gould in the Christian Science Monitor, WHICH ARE YOU?

TllEFAM FRONT d,Jo�Mussel Canada is leading the way in research into the use of infra- red heat in the blanching of fruits and vegetables prepara- tory to freezing and canning. A scientific team led by Dr. E. A. Asselbergs of the Plant Research Institute, Canada De- partment of Agriculture, has proved that infra -red lamps are superior to steam -water in the blanching of apples, celery, peas and potatoes. ♦ t A few benefits: For apples, celery - and peas, infra -red (1) reduces the amount of water, thereby cutting handl- ing and storage costs; (2) does not leach out flavour and nuts i• ents, as in the case of water or steam; and (3) improves rex• Lure, flavour and appearance. For potatoes, it (1) reduces the fat absorption in french fries; and (2) allows better re- covery of tine raw material, 44 • • Canada pioneered in this field in 1955 and today has the only known laboratory experimenting with infra -red fruit and vege- table blanching, Dr, Asselbergs first became interested in this process while attending univer- sity in the late 1940's. Enquiries have been received from the United States, Yugo- slatvia, Spain, Belgium, Italy and South American countries, t * Infra -red blanching of celery is 'being carried out on a com- mercial basis by a Southern On- tario food processing company, Domestic celery is prepared in September f o r manufacturing use during the winter - avoid- ing the high cost. of importing. A 20 -foot long infra -red tunnel can process more than 1,000 pounds of the finished product pct' hour, • • • Apple peeling by infra -red heat is another technique under experimentation at the federal laboratory. Researchers found that the loss of weight through peeling by this process was about two and .a half per cent, compared to 15 to 18 per cent through the use of mechanical peeling machines. ♦ ♦ * The three major types of infra -red radiators being used in experiments are calrods, quartz tubes and quartz lamps, Tho main difference lies in the oper- ating temperature of the fila- ment. In the first two types, the operating temperature is be- tween 1,400 and 1,800 degrees F., while in the third type the fila- ment temperature' is 4,000 de- grees F. • • * Infra -red heat is not a sure• fire method' of blanching all ve- fgetables, For example, it has so ar been unsuccessful with as- paragus, turnips and carrots. "Sul," comments Dr. Assel- berg;;, "as we get more basic information we may be able to overcome the difficulties we have met with these vegetables." • ♦ ♦ Damage by forest fires to soils depends on the kind and inten- sity of. the fire, the soil type, topography of the land and the climate, states A. Leahey, Re- search Branch, Canada Depart- ment of A;ricullure. Thus, the effect of a fire can only be evaluated by examining the soil in the burnt area, * • • Little or no permanent damage is done to mineral soils by the direct action of fire, but indirect- ly considerable damage may re- sult from erosion during the period the soils are exposed without a vegetable cover. On the other hand, organic soils may be badly damaged or even des- troyed by the direct action of fire but subsequent losses from ero- sion are likely to be negligible. e • • The only part at mineral soils that can be destroyed by fire is the thin, surface layer of organic mailer which is' usually present in forest soils, Destruction of this layer results in the loss of nitrogen, However, the re- sulting ash benefits the 'under- lying mineral soil, * • ,. , Organic soils will burn if they are dry enough, and consequently forest fires may severely damage or destroy them. Fire in organic soils is particularly dangerous as it may smoulder for years and then break out again in full fury. 4 • ♦ The number of cases of rabies in Canada from April 1 to the middle of December took a 75 per cent drop from the same period a year ago. A spokesman for the Health of Animals Division said there were 479 laboratory confirmed cases, compared with 1,871 for the cor- responding period in 1958. He termed the situation "not nearly as grave." * • • Ontario remained the center of infection, with 433 cases. Middle- sex, Elgin and Huron counties and adjoining territory in the southwestern part at the prov- ince appear to be the principally infected areas. Ontario last year reported 1,823 cases. • ♦ * Most significant decline was in the number of foxes infected, The disease has never become established in the dog popula- tion which, fi it happened,.would pose an even greater threat to humans. The rabies epidemic broke out among the wildlife in northern Canada about three years ago and gradually spread southward.

Paul pushed on into Mace- donia from Philippi to Thessa- lonica, now known as Saloniki. His preaching in the synagogues of Christ's death for us and His rising again, brought many con- verts among the Greeks, includ- ing some prominent women of the city. Envious Jews raised an agitation in the city, saying, "These that have turned the world upside down are come hither also; -and these all do contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, one Jesus." Poor Pauli The devil was stirred every- where that Paul went. Why isn't there more opposition to the preaching of the Gospel around us today? Is it because God isn't working very much in the salva- tion of souls or that people are generally too indifferent to care? Are we too inoffensive? We do know that missionaries do en- counter opposition in many parts. And, as in Paul's day, much of the opposition conies from religi- ous groups, By night, Paul and Silas slip- ped away to Berea. Here the Jews wel e more noble -minded than those of Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the srtiptures daily, whether those Clings were so. Many of both Jews and Greeks believed. But .'..vs in Thessalo- nica, learning of the spiritual victories, canny: over and made trouble. Again Paul had to slip away. Silas and Timothy re- mained. It all worked out for the best. It kept Paul on the move and lie seemed to be the right than for introducing the Gospel into many different cities. In Athens Paul was deeply moved as he saw the city so completely given over to idola- try. 1n the synagogue and mar- ket he talked with the people. Then he was invited by a group of curious intellectuals, philos- ophers of the Epicureans and of the Stoicks, to speak on Mars' Hill, Ile spoke to them of the one God, He who created alt things. Ile called on them to repent of their sins and believe on Hinm who God hath appointed to judge the human family. When he spoke of the resurrec- tion of this Man, Jesus Christ, some smocked. Some, both of men and women, believed. Paul had a greater truth to present than the greatest of the philos- ophers; truth that vas backed by the miracle working power of the God of creation.

ISSUE 5 - 1960 Strange, Deadly Solar Radiation Seen As Greatest Threat fect blast off engines larger than heretofore thought necessary. This "new" radiation appar- ently extends all through our solar system, It is scattered and made relatively harmless by the earth's atmosphere, therefore it doesn't affect us seriously here on earth. No one knows for certain how it occurs. But it is definitely dif- ferent from the so-called Van Allen belts of radiation around the earth. The Van Allen belts, though not always of the same size or intensity, apparently cov- er a large but somewhat limited area in phaco. This "new" radia- tion goes on forever through space. It occurs in erratic bursts which seem to be set off by the giant "solar flares" on the sun. The radiation particles them- selves seem to be protons - the small particles which are the hearts of hydrogen atoms. But there is no evidence that by Ray Cromley NEA Staff Correspondent Washington - (NEA) -There's growing evidence of a new type of here -today -gone -tomorrow ra- diation in the heavens that may delay manned space travel for years, This radiation is so deadly at times - just 100 or so miles out in space - that it would doom to death half the space travelers exposed for just 30 minutes. Cmdr. Malcolm Ross of the Office of Naval Research says: "This new radiation tends to make the Hazards of the Van Allen radiation belts seen pale by comparison." Though it has not been,accur- ately mapped, there is some evi- dence this new radiation occurs about once every two months. It doesn't seem to be predictable though, The time this dangerous radia- tion lasts is also erratic. It may PHYSICIST ROSS: Veteran of four successful balloon flights into space enclosed in a gondola such as he exhibits, studied new deadly radiation waiting for spacemen. last in heavy concentration .for eight. days, or only one. But the "usual" period of high danger seems to be from three to seven days, To protect men in a space chip from this radiation would take a prohibitive amount of lead shielding. It might, in fact, increase the weight of the act- ual space ship itself by several tines. Present guessing is that there would have to be three to four inches of lead shielding around a space ship to protect space amen adequately during one of these bursts of radiation. That added weight would be well beyond the capability of present man -carrying space tra- vel programs = or even think- ing. That means added years In finding a lighter -than -lead pro- tection from the newly -found radiation. Or extra years to per - all sun eruptions or sun flares set off a shower of these particular bombarding particles. So at pres- ent there's no way of knowing when a space man is going to run into a shower of this killing radiation - until it's too late. For at the peak, he may - tt he's well out in space - receive radiation at the rate of about 1,000 Roentgens an hour. And that may give him a killing dose in half an hour, This radiation has been stud- ied in cooperation with the Office of Naval Research by a team of scientists at the University of Minnesota. These men - Dr. E. P. Ney, Dr. J, R. Winckler and Dr P. S.
