LEGIONNAIRES TWO GAMES DOWN
IN PLAY OFF SERIES
The Blyth Legionnaires are currently
in a play off series with Lucknow for
group championship honours. Three
games have been played to date, with
the local boys losing two and tieing one.
Owing to the mild weather, all games
have been played on artificial .ice ;at'
the Wingham arena. Due to this factor,'
the crowds have not been as large as
expected for a play off series.
The first game was played last Tues-,
day night and saw the Legionnaires go •
down to the thumping 10-2 defeat. D.'
Campbell and McDougall were the
Blyth marksmen.
On Saturday evening the two teams
renewed their battle and the game pt'o-
ved to be a much closer contest, with
both teams scoring five goals cach.I
McDougall and Jackson scored tw,o
goals each and D. Campbell added the
final tally for Blyth,
The third game on Monday was the
most exciting from the spectators point
of view. It was a penalty -ridden affair,
with the local squad picking up a total
of 16 penalties for various infractions.
Although Lucknow won the game 64,
it was a very even contest, and the
Legionnaires have high hopes of being
the victors of the next match,

FIRESIDE FAM FORUM
On February 27th Mr. and Mrs. Don
Buchanan entertained the Fh•eside
Farm Forum, 16 adults were present.
The topic for broadcast and discus-
sion was the two price systems,
This is not a new idea. For years
different countries have used this sys-
tem of marketing to get rid of the
surplusses in farm or manufactured
products. As much as possible of the
product is sold at home, usually at a
fairly high set price. The remainder is
then exported to other countries, or
even placed on the home market at a
much lower price. Frequently this pro-
duct is of an inferior quality. Selling
it at a low price ,has a tendency to
curtail production and get rid of sur -
plusses.
Milk is one commodity which can be
sold by this method. The fluid milk
is sold on the local market and the
remainder is processed and sold as dry
milk or cheese. Some countries call
this the dumping system and greatly
resent it as it lowers the price of their
hone products of the same quality.
They retaliate by high tarriffs.
Mrs, Alex Riley invited the group
for next Monday,

WHEAT STORAGE SEEN AS URGENT
NEED
Huron County Wheat Producers hett
their annual meeting in the Agriculture
Board Rooms, Clinton, February 21st
with the usual very small attendance.
There were 988 farmers in Huron who
sold wheat in the past year for some-
thing over $24,000. This we admit does
not compare with either hogs or cattle
but it is still a fair ahiount of money.
It is surprising that so few farmers
are interested enough to cone to one
meeting a year. Let us see what this

Agriculture, Ottawa, gave an interest-

opean countries in search of markets
for Canadian cattle, These countries
are now getting to the place where
they can afford to plan better food sup-
ply for their people, Since they have
no. beef cattle to compare with our
quality, there is a real opporisnity for
the sale of a large number of foundation
stock over a long period of time, Since
we are free of foot and mouth disease,
we are In a preferred position. How-
ever, our main market must remain in
Canada and the United States. Since
there are several. countries where the
consumption of neat is much higher
than either Canada or the United States,
a real opportunity to expand in this
direction still exists.
If we are to take advantage of this
European market to the fullest extent,
we will need to promote the idea of
specialization. At present their cattle
supply both milk and beef, and do a
poor ,job in each department.
Delegates Bob McGregor, Jack Arm-

la.mily fortunes. 'Three years
ago he sold his English man-
sion, Sutton Place, Guildford.,
for £ 100,000 to Paul Getty, al-
legedly the richest, man in the
world,
The most recent deal was the
sale of the Dunrobin estate (ex-
cluding the castle) for £230,009.
Most of the money went into a
tamily !.rust for the benefit of
his niece, 'Mrs. Elizabeth Jansen.
While the Duke's tenant, en-

the Duke and his wife will stay

cheque-book.
For some weeks, radio listen-

hearing raconteur George Jessel
in perhaps his best-known vau-

promising to "send Mama a

its customers a 10 per cent

What Is the answer to this
complex question? Here is one
solution 1 have not yet seen
mentioned, If out-patient care
were included in hospital in-
surance wouldn't there be fewer
people clamoring for hospital
beds? Surely in the long run
operation costs would be less
rather than more. Diagnostic
services for even one patient
would surely be less costly than
keeping him in a hospital bed
for even one day.
Anyway, it should be a service
available to all policy holders —
especially if insurance rates are
to be given a fifteen percent
boost.

not rent one? For a shilling a

There's only one snag. The
seventy -two-year-old Duke will
ask the new tenant to produce
£10,000 as an upkeep fund.
This way it will be possible to
avoid income tax. if the Duke
charged £ 10,000 a year rent,
that would be subject to income
tax. But by having a tenant
put up the money .for upkeep,
there will be no tax.

Safety Is Not
The Real Word
it is worth noting that what
the National Safety Council said
was likely to he the safest
Christmas holiday since 1949
produced 488 highway deaths,
Thus does the word "safest" be-
come stretched to the 'limit of
elasticity.
A more sensitive if less real..
istic view of the matter might
be that, in theory at least, all
accidents are preventable. The
toll at Christmas, while merely
a continuation of a year round
process, cannot he condoned. Nor
can we afford the mildly con-
gratulatory tone that says a holi-
day week end is the "safest" be-
cause ;ewer than a half -thou-
sand people were killed,
It is a question whether the
National Safety Council's holi-
day practice of projecting total
deaths serves any useful purpose
except the setting up of uncon-
scious targets. For if a holiday
week end that produces 450
deaths can be considered com-
paratively safe, then we have
taken the first step toward offi-
cial acknowledgement that a
half -thousand deaths is par for
the holiday course and can be
accepted, if not with equanimity,
Et least without undue horror.
The point is, however, that
we have no moral right to list
even one death on the highway
n1; an acceptable norm. Every
one of the 488 and more killed
over the last week' end is dead
prematurely, and most of them
quite avoidably. Perhaps if we
set Ica s store by slogans and
targets as to what is safe, and
more by fix -proof enforcement
of motor -vehicle laws, our week
ends the year round might be a
little less lethal than they are.

Beasts Slaughtered
For Souvenirs
The law cf the jungle is that
only the strongest survive. It is
alaw that, unfortunately, is not
cntircly confined to the jungle.
Currently, tourist demands for
Eskimo ivory carvings are creat-
ing the biggest slaughter of wal-
ruses by man ever known in
Pccific waters.
Walrus tusks provide a valu-
able income for the local Eski-
mos — they provide the raw
material for their carving.skills
and, consequently, a good live-
lihood.
Eskimos either sell the ivory
to non-native carvers or they
carve it themselves, producing
appealing models of Eskimo
babies, caribou and, ironically,
walruses. Well - carved ivories
fetch up to $100 a pound.
In the rush to keep pace with
the demand for such souvenirs
the Eskimos are showing a com-
plete disregard for humane
slaughtering methods, and for
their own future,
They concentrate on "head
hunting" forays, seeking walrus
tusks exclusively. The carcasses
cr their victims are left to rot
on shores or ice floes. Worse
still, from the walrus preserva-
tion viewpoint, they prefer to
hunt female walruses — female
ivory is better for carving.
For months past, Eskimos in-
habiting tiny islands in the Ber-
ing Sea have lived on walruses.
The hunters, serving four main
villages, reckon to catch about
11,000 walruses a year. But it is
feared that through their uncon-
trolled hunting fervour and pur-
suit of females only, they fatally
wound and waste the carcasses
Ihl.u..ands rrlorc. If the wal-
rus, as is feared, disappears from
these waters, the Eskimos will
face starvation. A similar surge
of slaughter has taken place in I
the Eastern Provinces of 'Tanga-
nyika — as a result the hunter
(here has become the hunted.
Uncontrolled killing tot profit
resulted in wild lions being rob-
bed of their natural prey, so the
lions have now started killing
people for food. Not because
dies are nen-eaters by inclina-
tion, but because they must turn
to two -legged gatne or perish.
'1'o remedy problems of this
kind and to preserve a proper
balance of wild life, the Fauna
Preservation Society is appeal-
ing today for new members.
It needs more money to carry
out its schemes for safeguard-
ing the many animals and birds
without which the world would
Le a dull place.
The Society's efforts are, at
present, concentrated on Africa
— recently, it collected and sent
$30,000 towards the rescue of
animals marooned by the con-
struction of the Kariba Dam in
Rhodesia.
Now it wants to conserve
other splendid African species
which are being menaced, Those
thrat must be saved include the
black African rhinoceros,' the
kb antelope, giraffe, mountain
gorilla and the African elephant.
Poaching presents the biggest
threat to these animals, At one
spot in 'Tanganyika, wardens
found that gangs of poachers
had laid twenty miles of illegal
traps, a few yards apart. More
than a thousand elephant car-
casses were discovered inside a
twenty -mile radius, all the haul
and handiwork of one poacher.
The man hadn't bothered
about the meat — he was in-
terested only in the tusks and

the New.York Football Giants of
the 1950s. DiMaggio was the
complete baseball player, gifted,
classic in style, known for the
power of his hitting and the
grace of his fielding. Gifford was
the complete football player,
strong, versatile, capable of run-
ning or passing or tackling.
Each in his own time brightened
the New York sports scene. Di -
Maggio retired in 1951. Gifford
appeared the next year.
Last month the careers of the
two athletes were at opposite
sides of the seesaw again. Di -
Maggio, 46, a member of the
Baseball Hall of Fame since 1955,
announced that he was tempo-
rarily returning to baseball. For
two weeks next month, when the
Yankees train in St, Petersburg,
Fla., he will serve as a batting
coach. The day DiMaggio broke
the news, Gifford, 30, retired.
After 9 seasons Gifford, who suf-
fered a severe concussion after
a tackle by Philadelphia's Chuck
Bednarik last year, is quitting
football and becoming a sports-
caster for CBS. New York was

Weathermen Talk
About The Weather
The U.S. nation's top lveather
men slogged into New York last
month for the 41st annual meet-
----- of the American I1eteorolog-
teal Society and fittingly enough
It began to snow again—the sec-
ond big fall in two weeks. Ne-
urally the question was raised:
Why is the East suffering so
much more this year than lest?
According to the Weather Bu-
reau's chief long-range fore-
caster, Jerome Nainias, it's all a
matter of "planetary waves," the
huge currents of air,, like the
trade winds, which circulate
through the atmosphere, For
reasons still obscure to meteor-
ologists, the wave pattern this
year is sharply different.
"This winter has been charac-
terized by very large meanders
in the planetary waves, with
strong ridges and troughs," rNa-
mias said, "The waves are
bringing Arctic and Asian air
masses very rapidly clown across
Canada, the Great Lakes and
into the Gulf where they strike
the warm, moist air of the South,
often from the tropics. This
powerful contrast sets up a cy-
clone action which lifts the moist
air and carries it off to the
Northeast, where it releases the
snow,
. "This wind condition did not
exist last winter, Instead of
pronounced ridges and troughs,
the waves were flattened and
we had the familiar westerly
pattern with little contrasts be-
tween warm and cold to intens-
ify storms."
Taking a wider look at the
world's weather, J. Murray Mit-
chell Jr., a Weather Bureau
climatologist, reported that win-
ters have been getting colder
since 1950. This reverses the
warming trend in effect since
1880s, and particularly strong in
the '20s and '30s. The' finding
raises new questions about the
forces which control climate.
His report also challenges some
ideas that have been widely ac-
cepted recently—particularly the
theory that carbon dioxide from
autos and factories is producing
a "greenhouse" effect in the
atmosphere, leading to a steady
build-up in the earth's heat.
The weather men leaned in-
creasingly to the idea that the
sun is a principal force in shap-
lng 03thr•r, 'I'hougll its total
v;uiiiation (mostly visible light)
a':pears constant, its output of
rays sold perttclee varies wide,
ly. l+n ways not yet clear, the
changes in these radiations are
believed to set off the vast pro-
cesses cf terrestrial weather,
In the midst cf their discus-
sions cf the mysterious ways of
weather and climate, the me-
teorclogists in New York last
month were bombarded with a
flat challenge to do something
about controlling the perennial-
ly unpredictable weather.
The challenge came from Rear
Adm. Luis de Floret, U.S.N.R.
(Ret.), who loves to launch vast
ideas, "It is strange indeed that
the American people ... display
the same fetalism and resigna-
tion about the weather that our
remote ancestors did thousands
of yc':rs aeo," he told the Insti-
tute of Aerospace Sciences, also
meeting in New York. "We do
not seem to realize that the
problem of weather control,
gigantic as it is, can be subject-
ed to the sr.me sort of attack
which brought about our great
discoveries in the fields of
flight, nuclear power, medicine
. . " De Florez wants weather

increase in education of new
meteorologists, and an all-out.

atmosphere to pinpoint the trig -
It seemed almost too simple when 178 years ago the
Montgolfier brothers brought man's dream of flight to
reality. Their balloon, left, was launched over the French
countryside by building a fire under the craft. As the
air within warmed, the balloon rose in the air. As it
cooled, it settled slowly earthward, In North Dakota
gering mechanisms essential to
weather control,
This would include the famili-
ar techniques of cloud seeding
with dry ice, silver iodide crys-
tals and carbon black. But it
would also be directed toward
the discovery of devices to con-
trol tornadoes, hurricanes and
long-term climate trends,
A stocky, blue-eyed man of 71
who still pilots his own amphi-
bian on long hunting trips to
Canada, De Florez argues that
even slight improvements In
rainfall might open vast territor-
ies to agriculture. "It is a prac-
tical goal, it can be done, and
we have the tools to do it," he
said. "The question is, do we
want it in a short time, or just
let it drift along and get it in
50 to 100 years?"—From NEWS -

Princess Margaret
Gets New Butler
Kept indoors by an attack of
influenza, Britain's Princess
Margaret could take comfort
from the apparent solution of a
long - bothersome household
problem; a much • esteemed
butler, one Frederick John Col-
lier, was now at the helm of
Kensington P a 1 a c e's domestic
staff. It was understood that
Collier landed the job through
the recommendation of his for-
mer employer (and Margaret's
uncle), Admiral of the Fleet Earl
Mountbatten — who could no
longer afford a large staff be-
cause, as Collier explained it:
"Her late Ladyship had all the
money." It was equally under-
stood that Collier would keep
palace affairs to himself—rather
a tender subject since ex -royal
butler Thomas Cronin published
a newspaper series blabbing
about his troubles with Marg-
aret's husband, Anthony Arm-
strong -Jones. In Dania, Fla.,
where he now serves champagne
to patrons of a jai alai fronton,
Cronin said of the admirable
Collier: "He is a good man and
won't stand for any nonsense."
"How do you work out the
cost of living?" asks a reader.

turned down the flame. Advantages, says the Navy, are
economy and simplicity of operation.

2 yeast cakes
2 cups warm water
2 tablespoons sugar
1 cup flour
21 cups milk
114 cup: sugar
% cup lard, melted
eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
% teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon ginger
About 10 cups all-purpose flour
Dissolve yeast in the warm wa-
ter, add the 2 tablespoons sugar
and cup of flour and beat smooth.
Set in a warm place to rise 15 or
20 minutes.
Scald milk and cool to luke-
warm; sift salt and spice with
flour. Beat eggs and sugar to-
gether and add to the cooled
milk; add lard, and combine with
the light yeast mixture. Stir in
the flour with a big spoon, using
enough to make a soft dough
(you don't have to knead it), and
set it in a warm place to rise for
an hour or so. When doubled in
bulk, turn it out on a well -
floured board and roll out about
one-half inch thick. Cut with a
doughtnut cutter and lay on a
well -floured cooky sheet to rise
for 20 minutes or so. It is well to
stretch the hole a little bigger,
otherwise, it may close as dough
rises.
Gather up the scraps of dough
and mix Iightly, using as little
flour as possible, and roll for a
second cutting -out. These take a
little longer to rise than the first
ones.
Gather the scraps again, shape
and roll into rectangle about 5
inches wide and as long as the
dough- will permit, and with a
sharp knife cut into I x 5 inch
strips.
Drop into deep tat as you
would ordinary doughnuts until
done and lay out on cooky sheets
or waxed paper to dry. Quanti-
ties may be reduced proportion-
ately for smaller batches,

There are many ways of cook-
ing parsnips; they are partici)-
; laxly good with pork or beef,
Pare them thinly, then steam or
cook in just enough water to
keep them from sticking, The
cooked roots may then be sliced
thickly and browned in butter.
Or serve them with seasoned
butter. To 2 tablespoons butter
add finely minced parsley, or ','a
teaspoon ground allspice, ginger
or curry powder. A pinch of
rosemary is delicious with pars-
nips.
A turnip is another good, thrif-
ty vegetable which should be
served more often. Cut a few
substantial chunks of turnip into
a stew or meat casserole, Mash
and season turnip, then spread it
about ?',i inches thick in a bak-
ing dish. Sprinkle with grated
mild cheese and pop under the
broiler until browned, When
boiling turnips, cover with boil-
•' 'ing water to cover and add a
scant teaspoon sugar as well as
salt. Turnips are especially good
with towl,'pork and veal.
Beet -cooking couldn't be easi-
er! To save their color, beets
must always be cooked without
peeling. Leave about 1 inch of
stems on during cooking. Cook-
ing time takes about an hour.
When done, slip off skins, season
and serve. To make pickled
beets, heat Ye cup sugar and 3tr
'cup water with 1 teaspoon mixed
pickling spices. Add % cup vine-
gar and salt to taste. Pour over
beets and let stand an hour or
more. To make Harvard beets,
dice pickled beets, heat in this
same sweet-sour liquid and thick-
en with flour, Add a generous
lump of butter.

Every so often you see knob
celery or celeriac in the market.

Glen Atdrn Ccrporatiun is a
i:ig and c ntr rprising holding cunr-
pany which began as the Glen
Alden Coal Company in 1'ennsyl-
ania sears ago and has had dea-
lings in real, Textile , aluminum,
Ihcalrc7, etc. Casting about for
new investments it bit upon the
12ig, rid and apparently money-
losing Endicott Johnson Shoe
Corporation, about which the fa-
mous triple towns of New York
State—Binghanmtorr, Endicott and
Janson City—had been largely
organized.
Glen Alden began buying up
Endicott Johnsen stock and had
accumulated scnie 30,000 shares
in 2 batches. Then the word got
trbout the triple towns that out-
siders were moving in. That set
the insiders off on a vigorous
counter - campt'.ign and, as it
turned out, the insiders incrudect
about everybody in the three ci-
ties. Endicott Johnson has had
a more than merely employer in-
terest in its employees ever since
it was established by a group of
which the grandfather of Mr.
Frank A. Johnson, the present
boss, was a member. One of the
things the firm had done was
set up a solid pension plan.
What has now happened is that
by petition cf sane 80 per cent
of the employees the pension
fund is about to buy back the
shares now in Glen Alden's pos-
session. The Glen Alden people,
themselves are "moved" by this
upsurge of local patriotism and
hasten to give way. It is a pleas-
ing, almcst romantic episode in.

exploded. I have also found I
can typewrite with mittens on,
and thus the winter contributes
to our lore.
I came in the other evening to
report a genial 30 -below, just ati .
the weatherman was saying that
Fraser was the nation's coldest
spot with a minus 22. Since then
Fraser has got progressively hot-
ter, and we have lost ground,
and they tell the this is the 1
worst spell in a generation. I do
rot, however, offer my opinions
as solid, for I haven't tried to
start my automobile,
Nowadays any drop in tem•
perature seems important in
terms of getting the family ve-
hicle running, and the conversa-
tional appurtenances thereto. A
man whose conveyance chugs off
immediately becomes something
of a neighbourhood hero, and he
can push his friends end make
fun of th?ir models and establish

warmed up the other moruing

relieved and felt the worst was
over,
Somehow I got to thinking
about priming a pump. When
F1.D,R, began talking about pri-
ming a pump for political pur-
poses, 1 used to have a Effie fun
asking the younger folks if they
knew what he meant. I used to
wonder if lie did. Today you
can telephone from a warm
kitchen and have a garage
man come and start your au-
tomobile nicely, but starting the
old barn pump was always
something you did yourself,
and during a spell such as
we have just had it was a task
only the dreamers would ever
convert by political dimensions
Into a national desideratum. I
have always admitted that
'priming the pump" was the suf-
ficient reason why I couldn't
subscribe to beliefs so many
others accepted.
Anyway, a pump was made
'so'if you lifted high on the han-
dle and kept the pressure aloft
for a moment, the barrel would
drain. I'f you didn't drain the
water back into the well, the
freeze' -up would prove mean,
And you might burst your equip-
ment. Since every family in-
tpludos one muddle-headed mem-
ber who might forget to do
that, it was customary to fix the
leathers inside so they would
4rain automatically in cold wea•
er. You took the barrel off and
Olt a small notch. in the edge
of the leather, Then, if the
slumping member of the family
forgot, the water would run
back down anyway with a gurg-
ling, gasping, sometimes whistl-
ing noise until with a prolonged
gloomp the process would be fin-
ished and all was safe.
Then the pump would cool
nicely all night, and I would
have to go out in the cold dawn
and prime it so all the frost -
rimed animals could have a
'drink, The chore began the night
before when you set a pail of
water by the stove, to be ready
for priming in the morning. We
would take our bricks from the
oven, wrap them in a snatch of
flannel, and push them down in
our beds to warm our feet, and
retire. We had no heat in bed-
rooms then, and the air was
just as cold and just as fresh
whether you opened a window
or not. We liked the weigh) of
blankets and conf-tiblcs, and
tucked ourselves away. If any
trails pulled during the night we
knew it was cold.

night you shouldn't be talking

AND STILL THE BEST - The old way sometimes is hard to improve upon. This team hauls
pulpwood out of the woods near Clayton lake, The horses can go where mechanical
equipment fears to tread,
about cold weather. The air
would be still as a pirate's con-
science, the stars close down
with their cut -glass edges sharp
and blue, and a fox snarling
three miles away would seem 10
be right under the window.
Somehow this built up a stress
in the rafters, and when it got
strong enough one of the old
hand -wrought nails would pop
out, It sounded like a pistol
shot, closer than any sonic boom,
and from deep under your bed-
ding you would twitch in reac-
tion and think about that old
pump in the barn and the in-
evitable morning.
Sometimes the pail of water
by the stove would freeze, so
you'd have to wait while the
stove thawed it. In the barn,
with steam clouding up from
your pail, you'd find the cattle
waking, and as they stood up
and adjusted to their stanchions
they'd turn and watch you. No
maestro ever raised his baton
with as critical an audience as
the 'farm boy got when he h'isted
the handle on his pump and
made ready to pour. The dry,
cold, ice -crusted interior of the
pump needed the lubrication of
warns water to make it suck
again. Sometimes it took a long -
long time.
The thing is done on sound,
as with a pipe organ. The long
hollow reed of iron, down into
the depths, gives you a whank-
whank noise when it is empty,
but after you have printed and
pumped enough it will begin to
fill and you have a whunk in-
stead. This is good. When you
have elevated enough water so
there comes a gloonk-gloonk, the
printing is done, and all that re-
mains is to work the handle.
When that first burst of water
gushes into the tub the cattle
seen) greatly relieved. All of
them want a drink, so you turn
them loose from their stanchions
a couple at a time, and pump,
pump, pump, pump until all
have had all they want, and the
exercise has warmed you into a
healthy sweat. Then you let the
pump down to its last gurgle and
take your pail back to the house.

A streamlined method of test-
ing Cheddar. cheese for extrane-
,)us natter pioneered by Cana-
da Department of Agriculture
scientists several years ago, is
attracting interest in other parts
of the world.
An article describing' the Ca-
nadian method appears in the
current issue of The Australian
Journal of Dairy Technology.
Written by Francis D. Murphy
and Dr. C. K. Johns, of the Ca-
nada Department of Agriculture,
Ottawa, it outlines in detail the
Canadian method of testing for
extraneous matter, It also points
out that modifications of the
Canadian method are being used
by Australia, New Zealand and
Finland. e *
The Canadian method has cut
the time required for testing
from 25 minutes per sample
when testing was commenced to
11 man -minutes per sample.
The record held by the Canada
Department of Agriculture is
1,659 samples handled in one
day. + * *
Under the present Canadian
system a sample of cheese is ta-
ken from each vat at the time
of grading and forwarded to the
department's laboratory at Otta-
wa for analysis, Samples are re-
ferred to as having Disc 1, Disc
2, 3 o1• 4. The first two discs
qualify the cheese for inclusion
in Canada First Grade, Disc 3
Canada Second Grade and Disc
4 Canada Third Grade, or below
- depending on the nature of
the sediment.
+ + *
I11 1957, the Canada Dairy
Products Act was amended to
make extraneous matter analysis
a factor in fixing the grade.
"The program developed for
the routine testing of all Cana-
dian Cheddar cheese offered for
grading," state the authors "has
undoubtedly rendered' valuable
service in the improvement of
sanitation, both on the farm and
in the factory.
"Interest in testing cheese for
extraneous matter appears to be
growing." * , 4.
Regulations of the Destructive
Insect and Pest Aot are tinder
review with an eye toward
amending the restrictions relat-
ing to apples.
The movement of Ontario ap-
ples to the British Columbia
market for the second succes-
sive year was one reason for the
proposal to amend the regula-
tions, + s, *
Apple maggot is a pest peculi-
ar to the North American con-
tinent and, in Canada, is con-
fined to the eastern provinces.
British Columbia, which found
itself having to import Ontario
apples for the 'first time its 1959
and again in 1960, is free of ap-
ple maggot and is naturally, an-
xious that the pest be not in-
troduced t 11 rough shipments
from the east,
* + +
Under existing regulations,
only registered orchards that
have undergone the preharvest
apple maggot survey by pro-
vincial authorities may submit
apples for export to overseas
markets. It may be necessary to
make this restriction apply in
law (as it did in fact) to ship-
ments to British Columbia frons
Eastern Canada.
* * *
Further information is being
sought on the effectiveness of
controlled atmosphere storage in
destroying apple maggot larvae
in infested fruit. Regulations
may be amended to make fruit
stored for 90 days under certain
controlled atmosphere conditions
eligible for export if the evi-
dence warrants such actions. The
State of California permits the
movement of apples from areas
infested with the apple maggot
after a minimum of 90 days in
controlled atmosphere.
* + +
There was a slight increase in
the amount of fruit rejected by
processors because of apple mag-
got infestation in 1960, and the
suggestion was made that more
publicity be given to the need
for pre -harvest survey and its
effects in keeping the maggot
under control,

A recent review of hog mar-
ketings indicated that 5 per cent
of the Grade A hogs slaughter-
ed in Canada were marketed by
producers who had not register-
ed with the Agricultural Stabili-
zation Board at Ottawa. An addi-
tional 15 per cent of the mar-
ketings did not carry the regis-
tration number, although the
producer was registered with the
Board. * *
Since it is impossible to cor-
rectly identify hog marketings
that are not accompanied by a
correct registration n u m b e r,
some farmers may be ineligible
for future deficiency payments
on some or all of their ship-
ments,
Truckers, packing -house work-
ers and livestock graders can
assist the producer in getting
This registration number report-
ed with each shipment, but Luke
W. Pearsall, chairman of t h e
Agricultural Stabilization Board
points out that this is primarily
the producer's responsibility.
Don't Try To
Scare The Driver
After years of trying to fright-
en American motorists into driv-
ing carefully ("Traffic accidents
were expected to take 340 lives
over the long New Year's week-
end . ."), the National Safety
Council conceded recently that it
had been careening down the
wrong lane all along.
Releasing a report on its first
nation-wide sampling of the re-
action to safety propaganda, the
council concluded that "the
worst kind , , . is that , , , which
results only in raising anxiety
levels," In simpler terms, the
scare technique just slakes driv-
ers nervous,
Publicizing scapegoats, such as
teenagers, drunks, and speeders,
is likely to do more harm than
good, too, because the vast maj-
ority of drivers refuse to identify
themselves with any such cate-
gory. Equally useless are the old
slogans -"Obey Traffic Rules,"
"If You Drink, Don't Drive" -
because "they are so culturally
ingrained that little more than
lip service is paid to thein."
What, then, to do?
Calmly spread the tnessage
that normal people get involved
in acccidents if they don't know
how to avoid thein, and offer
specific lessons in dealing with
problems like passing, skidding,
entering busy thoroughfares.
"If you succeed only , . . in
making people nervous," said the
council, as it disavowed its past,
"it is possible that there will be
more accidents rather than
fewer."

A 'fest of Discipleship
John 13:1-5, 12.17, 34, 35.
Memory Selection: A new cum-
luandent 1 give canto you. That ye
love one another; as 1 have loved
you, that ye also love one another
John 13:34.
Anancient rabbi once said.
''Among men the slaves always
v'ash the master's feet but with
God it is not so." John tells how
God became a slave he wash His
followers' feet, In this self-abase-
ment Jesus reveals more of His
deity than He had ever revealed
before. Here, says Arnold's Com-
mentary, is the majesty of humil-
ity, The one who came from God
and would return to God reveals
the sublimity of service by
girding Hitnself with a towel
and washing the disciples' feet.
No other deity in the long his-
tory of man's religions ever dar-
ed stoop to such levels without
forfeiting his sovereignty. How-
ever, Christianity is distinctive
In its emphasis upon humility.
Gladstone said, "Humility as a
sovereign grace is the creation
of Christianity."
In Jesus we see sovereign
grace reaching down redemp-
tively to rescue men in deepest
need. We, too, must have the
mind that was in Christ Jesus.
St, Philip Neri was asked by his
superior to investigate a mir-
acle. He returned from the in-
vestigation saying, "Where there
Is no humility there can be no
miracle."
At a great reception given for
Abraham Lincoln an old chap
on the edge of the crowd shout-
ed out enthusiastically, "I am
from York state where we be-
lieve God Almighty and Abe
Lincoln will save the country."
Lincoln was then heard to mut-
ter, "You are only half right."
Lincoln's last words in Spring-
field before going to Washing-
ton were, "Without the aid of
that Divine Being who ever aid-
ed Him, who controls mine and
all destinies, I cannot succeed.
With Him I cannot fail."
On the same night that Jesus
washed the disciples' feet, IIs
saw Judas, one of the twelve,
leave the little company to take
the final steps to carry out hip
contract .with the priests to sell
•
his Lord for 30 pieces of silver.
Yet, Jesus had even washed Ins
feet. He kept the door open for
Judas to turn from his awful
sin. Let 00 000 say that Judas
helped in the procuring of our
salvation, His sin fulfilled a pro-
phecy but that did not coerce
Judas. He fell by transgression
and went to his own place in.
spite of the great love of Jesus
Christ manifested to him up to
the very last.
Highway Payola
A Big Problem
Discovery of underwater pay-
ments to Florida highway offi-
cials by a construction firm in•
volved in the interstate pro-
gram may not rate a surprised
response. More flagrant evi-
dences of the widespread use of
payola in recent years perhaps
have dulled the shock value ot
such revelations.
Nonetheless we agree heartily
with Rep. John Blatnik (D.,
Minn.), chairman of the house
investigating committee, that
this cynical disregard for busi-
ness and professional ethics is
"reprehensible" and cannot be
condoned on any ground.
Highway employes who re-
ceived gifts of whisky, cash, free
dinners, etc., told the investiga-
tors they were not influenced to
do anything other than their
normal duties. The contractors
testified they were not attempt-
ing to bribe the officials into
overlooking substandard materi-
als or workmanship.
But no amount of pious de-
clarations of this kind can erase
the fact that gifts were proffered
and accepted on a project that
should be "strictly business."
Even if no actual wrongdoing is
uncovered in the construction
and inspection procedures, it
cannot be denied that the intent
to buy influence was present,
And with whose money? The
taxpayer's, of course, every
penny of it. And the construc-
tion firm airily charged it all off
as "advertising and promotion."
Tax deductible, of course. This
from a firm which has had more
than 30 million dollar's' worth of
road contracts -much of it in-
volving interstate work -since
1956.
Companies such as this do not
deserve to profit at the public
till. Nor do state officials who
would accept such gratuities
merit continued public trust. -

Where Religion Doesn't Wait for the Seasons
POWER OF FAITH -It took a lot of old-time faith, but the folks
in Pana, III,, had it. With the temperature standing at 20 de-
grees, and six inches of ice on a local lake, members of one of
the town's churches gathered around a hole in the ice. Then
the converts stepped forward for the baptismal ceremony.
One by one they were guided under water briefly by Rev.
