D. Philp, Blyth representative on the C.D.C.1. Board, introduced the speaker. Mr, hunter noted that guidance be- gan in 1944 and is now a subject in all secondary schools in Ontario. - He stated that the increasing con , plexity of society has brought about 'the need for guidance.

Why Those Rockets Sometimes Fail In a big rocket like the Atlas, tyhero are some 300,000 parts that Must sing together, Only one eed go wrong for total failure, k couple of now -classic clinkers: One second after ignition in an Important Mercury shot last No - {,ember, an electrical plug was disconnected twenty millisec- nds too soon. An automatic 4ignal to the rocket engine or- rrlered it to shut down. The mis- tilon failed, The correction was Pimple: The cable leading from he plug was made a few inches longer. On Thanksgiving Day 1959, an Atlas -Able rocket blasted off with a payload intended to orbit the moon. During the upward rush through the atmosphere, the nose fairing cr shroud pro- tecting the payload was ripped apart. It turned out that wind- tunnel tests of various air pres- sures or "loads" had missed the speed at which the peak "loads" occurred, A solution: Holes were punched in the fairing to equal- ize internal and external pres- sures. Not all errors are mechanical. The recoverable capsule from Discoverer II came clown near Norway, instead of its intended Hawaiian landing area. A ground controller had informed the satellite's automatic timer that it was orbiting the world once every 95 minutes, The actual time was 90,5 minutes, a trifling difference that totaled half a world in distance after seventeen orbits.

SEEING RED MAKES HIM HAPPY — Mrs, Skelton looks on as Red Skelton laughs after his pet poodle leaped onto his lap as Red was wheeled out of Cedars of Lebanon Hospital in Holly- wood Dec. 28. Red entered the hospital Dec. 3 to undergo surgery for a diaphramatic hernia. Show Business Is Tough Business On stage in the studio, an it - resistible force — the piercing voice of Ethel Merman — was colliding with a seemingly im- movable object — an unwieldy George Gershwin tune, "Let 'em Eat Cake." Engulfed •in a sea of dancers, Miss Merman groped with the lyrics while cameras and chorus swirled around her. Suddenly she stopped singing, her pie face contrite. "I don't know the lyrics — I'm sorry," she bellowed as she adjusted a $40 beige cowboy hat perched insolently on her poufy hair. A cue -card man scurried in front of her, The Merm repeated the words, and then confidently an- nounced: "OK, OK, let's go,'' "OK, OK," echoed director Norman Campbell from the con- trol booth, "Lots of energy, kids, 'cause this may be it — and it had better be," And with that, the taping of the musical scene — in which Miss Merman plays s Presidential candidate out on the stump —.resumed again, It was late in the afternoon, and Miss Merman, currently ca- vorting in "Gypsy," had been on hand since 8:55 that morning to rehearse and tape a nine -minute segment for CBS's "The Gersh - win Years," a 90 -minute look at U.S. life in the 1920's and '30's, set against a backdrop of some 60 George Gershwin songs. Conceived last summer under the egis of executive producer Leland Hayward, the January special, which was also to star Eileen Farrell and Julie London, had been entangled in frustra- tions, Two hoped-for performers —Nat Cole and Ella Fitzgerald— had been unable to make it be- cause of commitments, Its narra- tor, writer -director Moss Hart, had been forced out by a heart attack and replaced by composer Richard Rodgers, Only a few days before, a disastrous me- chanical error had erased half of a ten-minute taped "Porgy and Bess' sequence shot on loca- tion along a shantytown street in Rockaway, N.Y. And row it looked as if a promise made to the lunchless Miss Merman — that she would be sprung by 5:30 so she might rest before her evening performance of "Gypsy" — would not be kept, "This is a bitch of a show and you can quote me," rasped pro- ducer Hayward as he gazed dolorously at the proceedings, ''Originally, I wanted to do the Rodgers and Hart songbook, and right now I kind of wish I had," For the 52 -year-old Miss Mer• man, a veteran of thirteen Broadway hits, it had proved a particularly wearisome day, complicated by personal prob- lems. Among them were a hov- ering appointment with her dens ,1s�:ia:a►:.et:+'0:. :.,a.ae A io..:A itk..#,Late_ :A.ei aeJ THEIR HOPE — Children reach hopefully toward the United Nations seal on this Indian stamp issued in New Delhi and worth abcut 3 Canadian cents, The .stamp was released for sale on United Notions Children's Fund Day. TRUMPETS — Clara Heidt dresses up a White Angel Trumpet tree in Cypress Gar- dens, Fla. tist and a scheduled flight to Mexico at the weekend to di- vorce her third husband, airlines executive Robert Six, Through the morning and early afternoon, she had patiently run through a "Wintergreen for P r e s i d e n t" number in which she was hoisted up and down in a plywood heli- copter, blasted with fake train smoke, obliterated by confetti and streamers, and had to con- tend with a large chorus and a 24 -piece orohestra on such rou- sers as "Strike Up the Band" and "Who Cares?" ' After she blew the lyrics on "Let 'em Eat Cake," a mike boom dropped in front of her, ruining a subsequent take, An- other taping had to be scrapped because of a traffic mix-up. "As I said before, this had better be it," called out director Campbell, And on they went -- Merman belting, the chorus pos- turing, the ' technicians in the control booth technifying, The number went off without a hitch, but in the control booth, a minor disaster struck. The tape — when it was spun back — had several technical blips in it. There were sequences left to tape, it was almost 6 o'clock, and everyone was staggering with worry. But then one calm voice spoke up in the darkness, "They'll never know at home — they'll think it's something wrong with their sets," said the speaker, "Let's go on," And so they did, everyone fin- ally adjourning into the snowy streets at 7:20, And that, as they say, is show biz; FAGS FOR A 'QUEEN Queens have always received Christmas gifts from their sub- jects in the past, Mary Tudor, on her first Christmas as Queen of England, received six barrels of figs from on admirer grid a bas- ket of sugar loavesm another.

"Mind can control matter" state scientists, It's a safe bet they've never tried playing golf! POPE' JOHN'S CHRISTMAS MESSAGE ! Standing before a lighted montage of St. Peter's Square, Pope John XXiII records his third annual Christmas message. The Pope called on the world's Catholic, to fight what he called a "diabolical conspiracy against truth'' being carried out through all forms of art and mass communications media. The Pontiff's 5,500 -word address was broadcast around the globe by the powerful Vatican radio and by a link -up of national stations in other countries. rr H RON ICLES /ZSR AitM4,tt�s C4a s+1~s • Now, at last, Christmas for us. as well as for you, is over, It seemed a long time a -coming but it finally got here, But, oh dear, Friday night we thought we were going to be done out 01 our Christmas dinner!

We pay for the turkey, Dee chooses it and cooks it, I make the Christmas pud- ding, Two weeks before Christ- mas . , . get that, TWO WEEKS BEFORE CHRISTMAS , . , Dee ordered a 17-1b. turkey from the chain store at the plaza where she does all her shopping, which usually amounts to over $25 a week. They took her order, her name, address and telephone. number, and the turkey was to be held and picked up on the evening of December, 23, The weight of the bird was impor- tant. It had to be big enough to feed us all and some left over for eating cold, But it could not be too big otherwise it would not go into Dee's apartment -size oven. Friday night Dee and Art went shopping as usual; asked for the turkey that had been ordered -- and presumably set aside, But the clerk said -- "We don't have any turkeys left that size. The best we can do is either 13 lbs. or 22," "But," said Dee, "I ordered my turkey — a 17 lb. bird — you must surely have, set one aside," The clerk shook her head, "We haven't got any birds left that size," she repeated, Then Dee began to see red; went out to the car and got Art to come in, From what I was told I gather there was quite • a hot argument! The clerk had no real explanation for the mix- up, or as to why they had 'made no attempt to notify Dee by tele- phone. Art asked to see the manager but he couldn't be found — one clerk said he had gone out some place for a few minutes. It finally ended up with Art saying — "Well, all right, if that's the way you do business, you can keep your groceries!" So he and Dee both walked out and left their entire order sitting in the shopping cart. Next morn- ing Art tried to get in touch with the general manager but, it being Saturday, the head of- fice was closed. Art swears he will never do business with that SALLY'S SALLIES fi BIRD Ii SHOP "Call the FBI! This bird you sold me raves like a rabid Red!" chain of stores again, What would you do? Naturally, this little set-to threw a monkey -wrench tato Dee's schedule. Saturday morn- ing she had to start out again— to shop and to hunt a Christmas turkey. She got the size she wanted but not a particularly nice bird as, of course by that time they had been pretty welt picked over. I am telling you this because just recently I read an article which said among other things, "lf you are pleased with the ser- vice or product you get from any particular store write and tell the management about it, It will be appreciated. On the other hand if you have any com- plaint, let them know that too. Any reputable business will lis- ten to all reasonable complaints." So that's that. We finally did get our Christmas dinner — af- ter a lot of extra work and wor- ry for Dee, Now about Taffy. Christmas morning, about eight o'clock, we put Taffy outside for a run on his rope, as we always do. He has about thirty feet of rope and that way can "get all the exer- cise he needs. As we sat at t heard a peculiar ucal, "Wi il'• that?" t exclaim. - and ran to the tvindott'. Thera : s:,tv isy cn his back, legs :.'.wing Ih air, with two bigger dogs attacking him. One was a German shepherd !mongrel) too Oho. a pure-bred blue terrier. We chased the other dogs away ,end called Taffy in. He managed to come but was limping and had blood dripping from a deep f,ougo in his shoulder . . and shaking with fear. Although the wound was deep it did not seem Lig enough to require stitches, I dressed it and when we left hone we gave him an aspirin -- thought he would be better quiet than to come with us. Today ho seems a lot better. What is the best way to keep dog — let hien loose to anmiy people, or Ire.p him wider con- trol, thus avoiding trouble %%ith neighbours but depriving the dog of natural means of defence? Of course we do take Taffy out on a leash for exercise but 11 ;gems to nye a dog should also be safe in his own backyard. Taffy certainly wasn't. h1 I hadn't heard him he might ha, e been killed. Modern Etiquette By Anne Ashley Q. Is it all right for a young man to smoke his date's cigars ettes? A, Il is excusable to smoke one or two if he happens to be out of cigarettes. But certainly not all evening. He must, as soon as possible, buy some fresh cigarettes for himself and his girl, Q. I received a birthday card with a handkerchief included from a friend. I neglected to write her a note of thanks, and my husband says I've been rude. Is this so? A. I'm afraid so. One should always thank a donor of a gilt, whether large or small. Q. When giving an informal dinner in the home, is it all right for the hostess to say, "Just sit anywhere you wish"? A. No. The hostess should al- ways designate specifically the seating arrangement of her guests, Q. I see more • and more wo- men shaking hands with men u.nd other women upon being in- troduced. Is this now consider- ed the proper thing? A, Although considered option- al, I think it shows more sincere pleasure and warmth over a meeting or introduction when women offer their hands.

Catching Big Ones In Southern Waters 'rhe most outstanding fishing grounds off the eastern coast of Florida are without question the slow-moving waters of the fa- mous Gulf Stream, This is really the main thoroughfare of the denizens of the deep Along the edges of this stream, sailfish, dolphin, wahoo, kingfish, and other great game fish are found, Sailfish are usually found from the Florida Keys to Juniper In- let in fairly good numbers dur- ing the winter months. 'Their range of travel depends a great deal upon the water temperature and food supply, They usually swine along the edge of the Gulf Strum, but on numerous occa- sions they are found in the green inshore waters feeding upon balm), mullet, and other small fishes. There are various fish- ing centers along Florida's east coast where boats tud experi- enced sailfish skippers are avail- able for such offshore fishing. Four of the most prominent ports are Miami, Fort Lauder- dale, Palm Beach, and Stuart, The offshore waters offer numerous species of fish that will strike a moving spoon, fea- ther jig, or a strip of cut bait, Various species of mackerel, such as the Spanish c e r o, king, and the wahoo (occasionally) referred to as the queen mack- erel, are ready customers for an angler's bait when larger fish are not plentiful. The king mack- erel, more commonly known as kingfish in southern waters, is one of the sportiest to take with salt -water spinning gear. There appears to be little writ- ten about the funthere is in fishing for pompano, but vol- umes have been written about how delicious they are to eat, The common pompano (Trachin- otus carolinus) is one of the most beautiful fish of the warm seas, heir size usually average only 1 or 11/2 pounds, but they give a good account of themselves on ipinning tackle, The pompano's peak of abun- dance is on the Florida Gulf Coast, where it moves from along the beaches into inlets and passes and is often found feed - g in shallow lagoons on small crustaceans, sand fleas, and live shrimp. Only in recent years has it been discovered that pompano ran be caught on artificial lures, While tnany fishermen consid- er sand fleas and live shrimp the best of natural baits, the small yellow and white bucktail jigs are effective when moved slowly over a sandy bottom. There are two very definite pompano runs each year in Flor- ida waters. The first starts about the middle of March and reaches Its peak during the second or this week of April, after which it tapers off until May when they move out into deeper water, The fall run generally starts in October,'•at which time fairly large-sized fish are common to catch, The northern angler who has )never had the opportunity to fish for southern .weakfish, better ]mown as spotted weakfish or ea trout, will be amazed to earn that these fish will strike R yellow or white bucktail jig, # small plug or pearl spoon with bsavage strike. Once they are ooked, they will give you a bat - 11e that Is surprising. An excellent way of catching these trout with live shrimp L still -fishing with a popping cork float, Strange as It may seem, sea trout are attracted by a sur- face disturbance. When the cork is given a short jerk, causing it to pop, fish will often strike your bait. Southern sea trout are found in fairly shallow water, about grass patches, along edges of sandy flats, and in and around passes. The development of spinning cackle has opened a brand-new way of catching many species of malt -water fish. A rod of 61/2 or 7 feet with power enough to cast a lure weighing between '/4 and 'lir ounce, on a 6- or 8-1b, monofi- lament line, will take the major- ity of fish that inhabit the shal- low Florida waters. It is entirely fitting that fish should be one of the state's chief attractions, for it is nearly sur- rounded by water, and there are numerous rivers and lakes with- in its borders where many re- cord catches have been made,— Ry Robert D.

Until he was taken into custody, Baer, re- garded as the most important concentration camp official still at large, had worked for 15 years as a woodcutter under the r'.ame of Kurt Neumann on the estate of Prince Otto von B's- marck o leading mernber of the West German Parliament. Selling All The Cars They Wish ! In American auto buyers' eager rush back to "basic trans- portation," to smaller, simpler, cheaper automobiles stripped of status symbolism and sculptured gewgaws, one car stands like a rock against the prevailing tide, General Motors' big ard brazen Cadillac, the epitome of glitter- ing automotive class, Is doing better than ever before in a his- tory of almost uninterrupt?d success, Its share of the "high- priced" car market, a comfort- able 39,9 per cent ten years ago, was running at a smashing 65.1 per cent late in 1960. . Sometime last month, a dealer zoonewhere in the U.S. retailed the 143,612th Cadillac to be sold in calendar 1880, thereby bre:kk- ing Cadillac's alltime one-year sales record set in booming 1955. Target for the year: 151,000, The fact is that Caddy is sell - mg all the cars It can produce— the ultimate standard of success in Detroit. And strangely, Cad- illac doesn't particularly want to sell any more. Why not? "We're in balance," explains Harold Warner, the silver -haired 52 - year -old GM vice president who is general manager of the Cad- illac division, To increase vol- ume, he adds, "we would have to expand all phases of the oper- ation , , . But we could run ten years at this rate and never lose a stroke." To boost its normal production schedule of 642 cars a day, 150,- 000 cars a year, Cadillac would have to add a third shift and two working days to the normal two - shift, five - day -a - week schedule in its single assembly plant at Detroit, and spend mil- lions to boost -capacity at every point on its assembly line, But more to the point, says Warner, it would force Cadillac 'to com- promise its fine -honed mainten- ance and quality -control sched- ules. (And whether it was an ac- cident or something else that created the Caddy's reputation, the'fact is that it's the car's solid quality that maintains its repu- tation.) "Rolls-Royce will polish a part whether it's needed or not -- that's supposed to denote crafts- manship," says Warner, who con- siders the Rolls more of a curi- osity than a competitor. "We, prefer to let the product decide what it needs. We'll spare no ex- pense on something that will help, improve the car, and we won't spend a nickel on some- thing that contributes nothing," Sample: Cadillac spent $65,000 on a machine just to wash' the Insides of gas tanks; it makes eleven different -size pistons varying only by two -thousandths of an inch, to make sure that each cylinder in an engine has just the right tit. All this has helped build what amounts to a fierce loyalty am- ong Cadillac owners. A wallop- ing 75 per cent of all Cadillac sales arc repeat business, The same car, of course, n.is provoked a.storn1 of insults and positive. • disloyalty in a dozen quarters. The Cadillac often seems to be the chrome -lined whipping , boy for the whole • Capitalist system, According to its critics, the Caddy's famous fins, introduced back in 1948 and originally called "'fish tails,", sent almost all of Detroit's styling reeling backward and upward to' such ridiculous extremes that They eventually produced a re- vulsion in public taste, The Cad- dy Is even taken to task for its customer's, alleged to include an inordinate number of bookies, racketeers, hustlers, and crook - cd labor leaders (e.g., Dave Beck).

Powers has received since the flier was imprisoned after his Moscow trial last August. Powers' father, Oliver, says he intends to renew his appeals to Soviet authorities to release his son after President- elect Kennedy takes office in January. mond is a perfect diamond, no matter who owns it. Warner is not worried about buyers switching to rhinestones. Despite the current trend to cheaper, less elaborate transpor- tation) the Cadillac division's general manager is firmly con- vinced that "the population ex- plosion will add to the high• - priced car market because the American standard of living is going to go up proportionately with the population." When Frankie Had But Little To Say Away from prison for two days last month, the convict dressed expensively, He wore a blue suit, a white shirt, a blue tie, and a white pocket • handkerchief, and, as he waited to testify be- fore the Senate Antitrust and Monopoly subcommittee investi- gating boxing, he grumbled about his breakfast. "They feed me better at linters Island, (N,Y,)," said Paul John (Fran- kie) Carbo, A few minutes later, Frankie Carbo, grim, tight-lipped, enter- ed the committee room in the Old Senate Office Building. in Washington, flanked by two U.S, marshals and his attorney, Abra- ham Brodsky, As questioning began, Carbo, in a. low voice, gave his name, his age (56), and his address (970 N.E. 111th Street, Miami), Then Mr. Gray, the man whom earlier witnesses identified as the underworld czar of boxing, clammed up. "What is your occupation?" asked Sen; Estes Kcfauvcr, sub- committee chairman, Croix), who is serving a two- year term for undercover man- aging, clutched a sheet of paper, He looked clown and began read- ing: "I respectfully decline to answer the question on the grounds that I cannot be compel- led to be a witness against my- self," Fitly -five times, often slurring over words, Carbo read the same answer. At the end of the hear- ing, ICcfauvel' looked at Carbo. "Do you have anything else to say?" the senator asked, Carbo paused, 'There is only one thing I want to say," he said. "I congratulate you on your re- election," The life 'of the party is that person who can talk ton r and -louder than the radia or Lelevi 'don. Pro Football Doesn't Always Pay Against a bright backdrop of red ink, the Houston Oilers, champions of the Eastern Divi- sion, mel the L o s Angeles Chargers, Western Division champions, in the American Football League's first title game Nev., Year's Day. For the mil- lionhires who invested in the new league (among them: Oil- man i -LL. Hunt's son, Lamar, of Dallas, and hotel man Conrad Hilton's son, Barron, of Los Angeles), the championship game completes a dismal introduction to professional football, Losses in the AFL, ranging from 0 high near $900,000 in Los Angcle.s to a low near $50,000 in Denver, exceeded expectations. Crowds, ranging from a low of 4,771 in Oakland to a high of 27,132 in Boston, fell far short of expectations.' Players popped up and disappeared with awe- some rapidity, During the year, the Boston Patriots listed a total of 239 different players on their roster, (Two Syracuse All- Americans—Ger Schwedes and Bob Yates—who had signed two- year contracts, failed to make the team and may serve out their contracts as office helpers,) Would the AFL survive? De- spite its heavy financial losses (a total of more than $3 million in eight member cities), the league seems certain to continue, The reasons: A $1,3 million tele- vision contract, a chance to get into the black by 1962, and the wealth of its backers, "Hunt lost between $400,000 and $500,000 here," one Dallas sportswriter said. "At that rate, he can only afford to lose for the next 100 years," Even In Chess They Play Tricks ! Gamesmanship in chess is an art as subtle and complex as the sport itself, To steel himself against chain • smoking oppo- nents, Mikhail Botvinnik, Rus- sia's ex -world champion, prac- tices with his trainer blowing smoke in his eyes, During a match, Mikhail Tal, the current champion, often stares at an op- ponent with curious—and dis- concerting — intensity. Bobby Fischer, the 17 -year-old U.S. titlist, has his own ploy. In a five-minute game against Tal recently, he knocked pieces over on the board and made Tal con- sume time picking then up. As the U.S. championship be- gan last month in New York, agcl Fischer, the favorite, took the lead, players were on the alert flit' gamesmanship. Some unusual gambits in recent U.S. tournaments: The Kick: One former U.S. champion mastered under-the- table footwork. Each lime his opponent concentrated, he kick- ed him in the shins. The. Lie: When a game was adjourned, a shrewd player phoned his opponent and told hint that he was resigning. But he didn't tell the tournament director. Then he showed up for the adjourned game and, when his opponent, assuming the game over, failed to appear, he claim- ed a forfeit victory. The Slam: When one chess grandmaster had an opponent under pressure, he knocked the official clock (which limits each player to two and .a half hours for his first 40 moves) off the table. It ruined the opponent. He didn't know whether to pick up the clock—and lost time—or shout for the referee—and lose time. "In tournament chess," said Robert Byrne, a teacher of phi- losophy at Indiana University and a competitor in the U.S, championship, "I follow one rule: Don't trust anyone," Eighth Wonder Of The World ? With high-powered rock drills teams of French and Italian en- gineers are blasting a seven -mile - long road tunnel through that snow-capped giant, Mont Blanc. When completed in 1963, this tunnel will prove an immense boon for motorists, shortening the overland route 1100) Paris to Rome by 200 miles, and could be the eighth wander of the world. So far the French, working from a point called 1,es 1161crins (the Pilgrims), 4-180 feet high in Chamonix, have advanced a mile underground. The italians, ex- cavating since spring. 1959, from the Val d' Aosta, have bladed a hole a mile end a quarter long. So accurate are the engineer- ing calculations that despite haz- ards such as floods and roof falls the team expect their tunnels to meet almost exactly. Biggest error allowed for is a deviation of si:: inches!

R. M. ALDIS As is common at this time of year, an increase in gastro-intestinal disorders has been noted, Two infant deaths were reported in the past month from this cause, Although often blamed on I'ich holi- day diet, many of these illnesses are actually infections. The common symp- toms are malaise, nausea, vomiting anti usually some diarrhea. As many of these cases are viral in origin, they do not respond readily to the usual forms of treatment. If the illness strikes the very young or the aged, it is most important to get early medical attention. Adults with any degree of intestinal complaint may act as carriers and should avoid visit- ing homes in which there are young children or any individual in weaken- ed health. Under no circumstances, should such a 'Jason visit a patient in the hospital. 4 JANUARY CLEA '` ANCE SALE CONTINUES 15% Discount on House of Stone Made To Measure Suits. R. W.

PARKING LIGHTS OUT WREN DRIVING Here's a tip to motorists who turn on their parking lights when driving at dusk or duriing bad weather. Under the Highway Traffic Act, parking lights may only be used when the vehicle is parked, and if used when driving, the operator is subject to a $10,00 fine for (ane first offence and up to $50.00 for subsequent offences. This item from the Act is little known and many motorists think that by turning on their parking lights at W. J. Hicks. dusk or in bad weather they have com- plied with the law and are safe drivers. Tire reason tine use of parking lights is forbidden when driving, is based o11 common sense, Another motorist could confuse these lights with those on a stationery vehicle, and an accident could result. The answer, if conditions warrant the use of lights, turn on your headlights, It is safer, and the legal way to drive. On lop of that it doesn't cost you any more to operate your car with head- lights than parking lights because there are no electric meters in cars.

OMA CONSIDERING MARKETING BOARD COMMITTEE The Ontario Federation of Agricul• lure was asked to consider setting up a committee to sit in on discussions be- tween the Ontario IIog Producers Mar- keting Board and the On�ario Farm Products Marketing Board. The sugges- tion came from Ontario's Minister of Agriculture, Hon. W. A. Goodfellow, at a special meeting called by the Mini- ster, at the request of the OFA several weeks ago, to study current farm mar- keting problems. William Tilden, president of the OFA, spoke for the Federations' Board of Governors, in reply to the suggestion' and indicated that the Federation would give it serious consideration. Ile said that "The OFA was willing to do what i it can to keep farm marketing plans on the rails." Opening remarks by Mr. Goodfellow were in part a reiteration of his com- ments to the delegates to the hog pro- ducer meeting earlier in the week. He assured the Federation Governors that even though difficulties were be- ing experienced with the hog market- ing plan, 11e still believed in the prin- ciple of the plan, and felt it had many merits. The main feature of the plan which caused the controversy was the fact that telephone sales at present were not recorded, and 'this left the sales method open to suspicion. Ile stressed the point that he was not doubting the honesty of the producer board personnel. J. L. Anderson, an OFA Governor from 011 Springs, Ontario, and repre- senting grain groups In the OFA, won- dered if the new regulations for the hog plan would effect other marketing plans. lie was answered by E. 1I. Biggs, Assistant Deputy Minister of Agriculture, who said that these regu- lations applied directly to the hog plan, and their effect on other plans would be indirect only, Mr. Biggs indicated that defiance of the law by any groups _would reflect on other groups through loss of confidence in farm marketing On behalf of my Noland and ntyseIf; board'; by the farm public, and byI wish to thank all ,those who rem,em• i other involved in setting up to ,rkottng bered us at Xmas hvtith cards, gifts and beards at the present time. treats.

One of the fears of the producer boards in marketing products was the possibility of collusion between buyers. Louis Davis, representing dairy groups in the OFA Board of Governors, ques- tioned George McCaugue, chairman of the Ontario Farrah Marketing Board, on this point, Mr. McCague replied that collusion was possible, but the OFPMB would stand right beside the producer board in doing everything possible to prevent any collusion. Ile went further by saying that any new sales method which proved satisfactory would be changed, or if necessary, a return made to the present plan. The meeting was requested so that the OFA Governors could get informa- tion of marketing problems, Much con- fusion exists at the present time as to what the problems are and what is behind shoves to overcome the diffi- culties particularly in hogs. The OFA does not wish to see the hog plan or any other plan lost and hence look this step to get at fact:. A closed meeting w;Iin the hog heard will be held in the 11•eek of January 9 to further explore the prcb'.ems in ho+; ttlathotulb. "ONE EYED" CARS RECEIVING 'ATTENTION BY LAW OFFICERS 1. The Attorney General, the Hon. A. Kelso Roberts, Q.C. has authorized the Ontario Safety League to issue this statement, in support of the League's efforts to reduce the number of drivers who operate "one -eyed" cars after dark: "Operating a motor vehicle equipped with insufficient or improperly adjust- ed lamps on the highway after dark, apart from being unlawful, is an ex- tremely dangerous practice and I have, thcrdore, recently directed the Ontario Provincial Police Force to pay partic- i' attention to this type of violation and take appropriate action in all cases coming to notice. It is my wish that every effort be put forth by law enforce- ment agencies and motoring public alike to reduce the hazardous and un - sane movement of vehicles on the high- way, particularly during the dark win- ter months ahead," 2. The Ontario Safety League quotes a sign at an intersection: "Crossroad, Better humour It." 3. if the driver ahead of you puts his arm out of the window, and opens and shuts his hand rhythmically, it probably means that you have inadver- tenty left a turn indicator blinking, says Ube Ontario Safety League.

Some say they met casually while ski• ing in Switzerland; others say it was at a party arranged so that the bachelor could meet one of the Spanish princesses (to whom he paid little attention), The people's popular version is that mutual friend introduced him as "Count X" and that not mail he and Fabiola had fallen in love did he reveal that he was Baudouin, King of the Belgian; However the romance startcu, the whole world knew last month that it had been consum- mated in marriage — at the first wedding of an European king since World War Ih It cost the Belgian Government $150,000 and it brought together the greatest pack of kings and queens (crowned and de -crown- ed), princes, princesses, dukes and duchesses, and other nota- bles ranging down to mere For- eign Ministers and envoys extra- ordinaire since Queen Elizabeth Ii's coronation. They came from 80 countries and at one point ar- rived in such profusion that an airport of f i c i a 1 commented: "We've got one queen, three princes, and a couple of dukes slacked up." For the dwindling ranks of European royalty, it was a chance to wear their medals and uniforms and to sort out who was still who. But for the people of Belgium, it was an event of far greater significance. Just as Queen Elizabeth's coronation had somehow symbolized the end of Britain's postwar austerity, so the Belgians hoped that their royal wedding would salvage the injured pride of a nation that had just been shorn of its most magnificent possession — the giant Congo. It would be no easy task. For rancorous debate about the royal family has become a national pastime in Belgium. Both gov- ernment • nd neonle were still worried that Bauclouin's father, 1ha I0 isocline LL opold III, who was forced to hand over his throne in 1951, might still have too much influence on his dot- ing son, And there remained the beautiful commoner Leopold married after Astrid's death, '1 Princess de Rethy, whom Bau- douin also adores. In such an atmosphere—and when Balenciaga's wedding dress didn't arrive until 24 hours before it was to be put on— any bride might have been excused a small attack of hysterics. Fabiola was no exception. She .ould be cheered by the wild reception given Spain's visiting flamenco dancer's — even though Belgian schoolboys arc still taught that Spaniards are those wicked peo- ple who ravaged the country in the fourteenth and fifteenth cen- turies.

She gave Baudouin the wrong hand when the double ring' ceremony was about to begin and later seemed about to faint. Baudouin murmured, "Je t'aime, chcrie" and passed over a bottle of smelling salts which he had concealed in the gloves he carried, When at last the ceremony ended with Bach's "Magnificat," the bride and groom had spent three and a half hours getting married. And it was then that Fabiola won the hearts of her new • people. With a radiant smile, she blew kisses to the waiting crowds. From the crowds there rose. the cry: "Long live the King!

Here, in 'this busy city of Witchita, Kansas, I talked to a young wife, mother and homemaker, Mrs, Nancy NIattingly, who, for several years, belonged to such a club of eight members, all good friends and busy homemakers, and who is now in the midst of forming an- other one like it, "We have learned from ex- perience that six is about the right number for a cooking club," Mrs, Mattingly said, "The way we work it out is to divide ourselves into pairs — the com- bination of partners changes after each round — and cook that way, "We demonstrate the prepar- ing and cooking of at least one dish so the others can see how It's done, For demonstration we choose such things as a jelly roll and how to make it roll right, dainty little pancakes to serve for dessert — the kind you roll around jam, meringue and how to make it stand up—things like that." The club meets at the home of the member whose turn it is to cook that clay, so an early start is easy. Another member types copies of the recipes used and a copy is given to each member, writes Eleanor Richey Johnston in The Christian Science Monitor. After lunch, when the time for leaving approaches, whatdo you suppose these well-fed home- makers talk about? The subject usually gets around to "What shall we have for dinner tonight for our hungry husbands and children?" ., Nancy gave me a couple of recipes that had been used in her cooking club, Here they are: Chicken Divan 4 chicken breasts 1 package frozen broccoll 4 tablespoons butter .1 tablespoons flour 2 cups chicken broth iz cup heavy cream, whipped la cup Parmesan cheese plus more for top of casserole. Cook chicken breasts until done; remove neat from bones and slice. Boil broccoli until tender. Melt butter, stir in flora', add broth, and stir constantly until sauce is smooth and hot; cook over low flame for 10 min- utes. Fold in whipped cream; season to taste.

The Coal Board, which offi- cially owns all coal in the ground, got to hear of Mrs Wer - mil's private mine and sent two officials along. At the front door they told her that technically she was stealing the Board's coal, But when they had a look at the thine — a 25 yard trench partly covered by brambles — they laughed, "They said i wasn't doing any harm and left chuckling.

Old Boston's Barley 'Toys Somebody who was here dur- ing the summer milted if we had any ofd cast-iron toys It lteems these have become col- lectors' items, too, and I thought back to certain fire engines, trains, and blue tipcarls I'd had or had seen in the earlier days. 1 remembered a cast-iron bank which, through no effort of mine, had almost made me a rioh man. A coin was inserted thus and so, and when you press- ed a button a cast-iron donkey would kick over a cast-iron boy, and the penny was tipped into the slot. I never exploited it, but a younger sister used to get it when anybody was around and ask for e penny so it could be demonstrated. Shortly before she made me affluent the spring in the donkey broke, Last summer I said no, thrlt we had no cast-iron toys left over, but at Christmas time we always made barley toys - and with this ( hit a blank. It isn't hard, today, to find folks wht, never had or saw barley toys. Such are always amazed, when they finally see some, to dis- cover they are made from candy, And if there is any memory re• ration it usually consists of, "Oh, yes - t remember - long ago . , . " One of the 'family ancestors operated a candy shop on Bea- con Hill. Nobody seems to re- member just where it was on the hill, or exactly how long ago. He, the ancestor, had the shop from his father, and tradition tells us he did well and was then recognized as an old Boston in- stitution, But instead of setting up a continuity and giving us the oldest candy shop In America, for some reason he went out of business, And as the years have gone along certain of his equip- ment came to rest improbably under our roof. We have the oopper kettle in which he boiled Ms syrups, the spout indicating Plat he was left-handed, and the ,heavy lead molds in which he east Old Boston's barley toys. We also have rho recipe he used, which is supposed to be a secret in the fancily. It doesn't seem to be anything a good ohef couldn't figure out by him- self it he tried. The barley toys, then, are a hard sugar candy made in the form of animals or other recog- nizable objects. They have the added feature, which cast-irt,n animals do not, that after you are through playing with them, 100TH BIRTHDAY - Mrs, Ern - file Schulz manages a wan smile despite adversity as she marks her 100th birthday.

Some of these lead molds we have go back u much as 150 years, at least, some of them are newer - all of them are old enough now to be treasured as they are. The tra- dition is that the candy shop in Boston was always busiest just before Christmas, and that the copper kettle was hot almost day and night as it worked on the little candy figurines. Naturally the work was done, at Christmas, in the front window of the shop so folks in the street could stand and watch - and be teased Into a purchase. I4 uncoloured the candy came out a rich honey -gold, as clear as amber, but colour was added to some batches, Green and red, The candy comes from the molds as dogs, cats, birds, shovels, guns, boats, horses, and so on, A little teakettle that you can pop into your mouth comes from one mold, while a big steam lo- comotive with belled smokestack comes from another - the en- gine weighs exactly a pound and it takes over an hour to harden it and get it from the mold. We imagine the engine was one of the more recent molds acquired, and probably is no- where near so old in the candy business as the roosters and don- keys, but it is naturally the fore- runner of the cast-iron choo- choo and the whole model train business. We presume that when railroading got established, some mold maker went right at it. There is a deer, a daintily formed animal with head held high and .a rack of antlers, but there is no "Santy Claus," You see, until "A Visit From St, Ni- cholas" was written, there had been no artful description of this character, and it hadn't occurred to anybody to depict him. The candy deer of the old Boston Candy Shop is therefore simply a deer, and has no connection with Prancer et als. There is also a cannel, with Arab aboard; re- oplondent eagles In several sizes; and inanimate things such as the teapot - a boat, a cornet, a broom, a musket, and washtub. It is refreshing, we think, to dwell annually on this, for it tells of a time when Christmas was less expanded. These little barley toys were sufficient for the day, and perhaps the only bad thing you can say about them is that they are the fore- runners o! the great commercial- ized Yule, which so often de- presses us now. Yet they were dainty, delightful and delicious. Anyway every December we get the molds out, set the left - ,handed copper kettle on the stove, and pour batch after batch al these old-time candies. They make beautiful Christmas remencbrance§ to our friends and relatives who seem more pleased 'than they would be with a ten dollar bill apiece, Nor is it only the children who seem glad. They, the children, react prob- ably as children did in old Bos- ton 150 years ago -- they fondle the toys and shortly eat them. But the older folks react too, "Why," says someone, "I haven't seen one of those since ... 1" And as the years have gone along, there are folks who come every year just to see us make the toys. They watch us care- fully olive -oil the molds, stand them on end, and run in the hot syrup. And when the molds are opened and the toys come out, they stand to one side and say, "It's a dog! It's a rooster!" .And every year some of them say, "Why, you ought to go into .business with those - they'd sell!" But we happen to think there are enough people, now, ,in business over Christmas. We an'efer to perpetuate this custom from an amateur standing. - By John Gould in the Christian Science Monitor. LIntentions Written in ♦eree 10, Outdo'• I. Remnttat eocond note L Extreme 11.

One result of this pro- gram is expected to be an im- provement in the health of the national flock. The Poultry Division of the Canada Department of Agricul- ture will administer the project but inspectors from both the fed- eral and provincial governments will collect the incubator dust and fluff samples from hatcher- ies in their area for the analysis. This is the key innovation • • • The analysis will be carried out at federal Health of Animals Division or provincial laborator- ies, whichever is most conveni- ent, and a report on the number and types of micro-organisms in the samples will be made. On the basis of these analyses hatch- eries will be notified of the ef- fectiveness of their sanitation methods or will be advised where necessary to take steps to reduce exposure of .the chicks to excessive number of the micro- organisms. • • Studies in Canada have con- firmed the ability of formalde- hyde fumigation to kill bacteria and many hatcherymen have re- sorted to this means of reducing disease in chicks. The next step was to find a method of measur- ing the effectiveness of the oper- ation. It was found that this could be done by laboratory ex- amination of samples and esti- mating the numbers of viable micro-organisms in a known weight of incubator dust. Cases have been reported where a high bacterial population in a sample was definitely associated with high non-specific mortality in the first few weeks of brooding. Where significant counts of As- pergillus mold were found in samples, the chicks or poults often developed Aspergillosis, . . * * By the end of 1959 three prov- inces were engaged in fumiga- tion and analysis work in chick hactheries and this year the pro- gram was extended to all of Can- ada with governments at both levels offering inspection and analysis facilities. Inspection of hatcheries is obligatory under the Livestock and Livestock Prod- ucts Act and the collection of in- cubator dust and fluff camples can be done in the course of rou- tine checks on sanitation and plant operation. The willingness of Canada's 590 hatchery opera- tors to participate is an essential part of the program, The Poultry Division at Ottawa is convinced that the values of the findings made will quickly commend the program to those poultrymen who are still new to I1, • • • If plants could talk they would complain of "catching a virus" Just as often as human beings do and with more reason, For virus- es cause extensive disease in such crops as corn, potatoes and rasp- berries. While some plants, like human beings, shake off a virus condition with little damage, others are noticeably affected, • • • What exactly is the virus? It is a tiny biological entity that multiplies by robbing its host of nutrients, The ineffective part of the virus particle com- prises four baste units arranged in a specific pattern which re- mains constant in reproduction - and reproduction can take place in a few minutes. • • • The process of virus .penetra- tion, movement and growth within the host can be traced by tagging one of the basic units of the pattern with radioactivity and it is hoped eventually to learn how the virus assembles the plant nutrients into its own pattern. This study being carried on at the Canada Department of Agriculture research station at Vancouver, may lead to a better understanding of immunity and to better means of controlling disease. 4, 4, 4, Other controls attempted are the breeding of varieties resist- ant to the attacks of the virus, and the protection of virus -free plants from infection in the early stages of propagation, ONIONS FORETELL WEATHER Country folk in France have a quaint Yuletide onion custom which many thousands will ob- serve again this year. On Christmas Day twelve on- ions are placed on a shelf, each with a pinch of salt on top, to represent the twelve months of the year, If by Epiphany the salt on any particular onion has dissolved, the month it represents will be wet, they say. If the salt re- mains firm the month will prove fine. Most pencils are made six -sided rather than round so they won't roll away.

Ye Must Be Born Again John 3: 1.7, 12-21 Memory Selection: God sent not IIis Son into the world to con- demn the world; but that the world through hint might be sav- ed, John 3:17, There are multitudes of peo- ple in this Christian land who know as little about the meaning of the New Birth as did Nico- demus. We understand church membership, good works, the sac- raments, but until we are born of the Holy Spirit, we cannot un- derstand the new birth. Nlcodemus belonged to the most religious sect of the Jews. Ho was impressed by the mir- acles which Jesus performed. He was startled when Jesus probed into his heart, saying, "Marvel not that I say unto thee, Ye must be .born again." The great evan- gelist, George Whitfield, was once asked why he preached so frequently from the text, 'ye must be born again.' His reply was, "Because ye must be born again." In the eighteenth century John Wesley was a true son of Nico- demus. It took him thirteen years to abandon his false assumptions and humbly place his complete faith in Jesus Christ, Only then did he experience the new birth. Only then did he possess eternal life. For fifty years thereafter he travelled up and down the Brit- ish Isles convincing thousands of the truth explained to Nicodemus by Jesus, Before this experience he had come to America to con- vert the Indians but found that he himself needed to be con- verted. John 3:16 points out the means by which we may be saved; be- lieving on God's only begotten Son. We are saved by faith, Man would like to make a way to heaven according to his own wishes, But there is only one way. We must turn from our sin and believe on Jesus Christ. And this is not merely an intellectual assent; it is a committing of our all to Him. It is a deliberate trust, Jesus Christ and He alone, CO deliver us from the curse of the broken law. He is all we need. Wool, Walnuts And Pen -Wipers There was no money to spend on presents from shops, nor did we think of buying our gifts. The only bought presents were books which were the province of our parents. My Mother look- ed after this part of the festi- vity when she visited the coun- try town on the Friday before Christmas. One could buy balls of varie- gated wool for a halfpenny each in colours which shaded in a manner I thought magical. There was orange shading to yellow, and red melting to pink, and various tones of green and blue mingled like a garden of flow- ers, I murmured the beautiful word "variegated" as I walked through the wood to the tiny sweetshop in the hamlet where the wool was sold. I clutched my twopence in my hand and thought of all I could buy with it. I unlatched the door of the Ivy-covered cottage which was also a shop, and I nervously lis- tened to the jangling bell that summoned Mrs. Else 'front her I II 1111111.1N NI • INN II IN III ON NI MN MI I 11111.1.1•11 housework. There was a strong smell of vinegar and pickles which I disliked, but there were jars of sweets and trays of Jap - nuggets and cocoanut chips and chocolate bars as well as the variegated wool balls. I chose the colours from the dusty tray in the window. I began the knitting at once, ac soon as I got into the word, by hammering four little tiwks in an empty cotton -reel, using a stone for the hammer, to make my primitive knitting machine. The wool was twisted round the tacks which were evenly spaced about the centre hole of the bob- bin and with a pin, or even a thorn, I drew the fresh wool over to make a stitch. Round and round the bobbin I worked and a fascinating snake of many col- ours was drawn through the hole. Walnuts and chestnuts were the wildwood foundations for some presents, which had plen- ty of diversity. We made a set of dolls' furniture, chairs and couch and table w i t h shiny brown horse -chestnuts t r from the green husk, and colour- ed wool and some stout pins from the pincushion on the dresser. Walnuts grew in an old avenue of trees planted by my great-grandfather and although they no longer belonged to us we used to run under the gnat trees and stamp on the datk rotten husks which lay among the fallen leaves. We carefully cracked the cream shells and kept then for our presents of mystery. Sixpence bought a bot- tle of gold paint which lasted for years and we gilded the nuts for the Christmas tree and for presents. Some of them were made into little pin -cushions, with scraps of velvet and silk from the patchwork bag glued across the half nut and they w ere ready for somebody's Christmas, My own recollection of simple things, the painted text, the gild- ed walnuts, the surprise nuts, the embroidered handkerchief, the pen -wiper, the Qin-cushion, and mats were in my private Crawer in the kitchen table 104 7e I looked at them many a time a day, Our hearts were warm as we thought of the store of presents t114 Christina w Regr,-k`rot� "The Swills Fly Over," by Aff son Uttley. FOUR -TON CHRISTMAS TRE$ One of Britain's record Christ- mas trees was provided by the Duke of Norfolk for tenantry about a century ago. Grown on his estate, it was seventy feet high and weighed four tons. The first Christmas tree seen in England was erected by the Prince Consort, husband of Queen Victoria, at Windsor in 1840. It was forty feet high and carried a crop of presents worth an estimated $45,000.

You needn't slip your clothes in a grip And start on a long, long hike. You'll find elsewhere what you left behind, For there's nothing that's really new. It's a knock at yourself when you knock your town; It isn't your town -it's you. Real towns are not made by men afraid Lest somebody else gets ahead, When everyone works and nobody shirks You can raise a town from the dead. And if while you make your stake Your neighbor can make one, too, Your town will be what you want to see, It isn't your town -it's you.
