Committee,Members were appointed to a Provis- ional Committee, which will make all the necessary arrangements for the launching of this new organization In 1962. Those elected by the ladies pre- sent to the Provisional Committee were: Mesct�atnes F ,Bainton, J, Camp- bell J. Fairservice, C. • Higgins, F. Howson, R. Madill, G. McCallum, K. MacDonald, W.

Phillips, Mrs, W. 141cVitlie and Mrs. It Madill conducted the open- ing worship period with Mrs, Winona McDougall assisting at the organ. Mrs,- Lloyd Edighoffer, of Mitchell, guest speaker of the evening, was introduced by the minister, She reminded the la- dies that women of the church are or- ganized so that much more can be ac• complished as they are banded togeth• er than can be achieved by individuals acting .alone. She tntaced the history of the present Women's Organizations ol. the church and urged that as these are brought together that it not be done to change one another but that they might live In harmony and help each other to grow in character. In this regard she compared' the new organization to a marriage. "As long as there is life, there is bound to be change," she sant "Only when there is death do things remain the same." She challenged the ladies not to slacken the pace of their interest in the work of the church but to once again reach out for the fulfill- ment cif the vision of those who prepay - ed the constitutions and purpose of women's groups in the church, "The church has something for women that they can get in no other place or group," declared the speaker suggest- ing that until every woman has a share in the fellowship of the Church, the members of Church Women's organi- zations could not feel that their job was complete, "Church work as we do it is not always Christian work," sug- gested the speaker, "Each must ask herself, 'Is my witness truly Chirstian? is my service truly Christian? and What is really the job of a Christian iu the community?" Rev, R. E. McLagan, minister, voic- ed appreciation to Mrs. Edighoffer for her leadership and inspiration and pre- sided for a brief question period. In his concluding remarks to the ladies Ile reminded them of the words of Christ, "Whatever ye sow, that shall ye also reap." If we give sparingly of our energy and our leadership, we will reap sparingly," he said, "But if we give generously of faith, good will, enthusiasm, interest and Christian ser- vice, we will reap a United Church Women's Group that is strong and dedi• cated."

SNOW ENVELOPES AREA Seeding operations in this vicinity, which have been proceeding, at a snail's pace due to the cold, damp spring weather, had •a further set back on Tuesday when snow fell in the entire area. The unwanted snow started early Tuesday, and by mid-murning the ground was completely covered by the large, wet flakes. By Wednesday morn- ing temperatures had risen slightly, but not enough to have n'i immediate effect, and the. fallen snow was still . quite evident, It is to be hoped that this bad weal). er will bring an end to the inclement conditions, and the Warm sparing days we have all been waiting for will be Brucefield.

In this article written tI the re(1ues1 of the American Cancer Society, a distinguished scientist describes Spontaneous Regression.) By IDR. 1\'ARREN O. COLE Professor of Surgery, University of Illinois College of Medicine (Written for Newspaper Enterprise Assn,) CHICAGO, Ill, — NEA) -- A few doctors have witne.<(d and reported the most awesome and mysterious event in medical practice—a spontaneous reeres- sion of c::nccr. In spontaneous regression, a patient with cancer, which some- times has spread beyond medi- cine's ability to cure er control it, suddenly will become comple- tely well. All evidence of cancer will disappear. The patient may live many years without recur- rence of the cancer and die of tin entirely unrelated cause. Most, however, have a recur- rence after months or years of {)ood health. Dr. Tilden C. Everson and I have spent five years studying the world medical literature, corresponding with scientists and doctors and reviewing, the slides to make certain each case was indeed cancer. We have verified to our sat- lofaction 119 cases of spontane- ous regression since the year 1900. Considering the millions who have died of cancer during that time, 119 cases are not very many. No patient should depend on or hope for spontaneous regres- sion to cure his cancer. Nevertheless, that this pre-, nomenon—or miracle, if you will —takes place at all persuades us that new and effective methods of curing cancer are possible. Perhaps all we have to do is find otlt how nature did it in these 110 cases, The most frequent spontaneous regressions occur in nerve tissue tumors called neuroblastoma. Next to leukemia, this is the commonest kind of cancer in youngsters. If children can live with these tumors 14 rnonths or - longer, they stand almost a one - in -three chance of having a spon- taneous regression. It may be that the hormone changes of early childhood enhance resis- tance. The most common spontaneous regressions in adults occur in cancers of the kidney, of the chorion (a bit of the fetal cov- ering which is left in the womb following delivery) and in mela- noma, or "black cancer," of the akin and other tissues. Spontaneous remissions are also recorded for cancers of the breast, bladder, bone, uterus, col- on, rectum, stomach, ovary, lymphatic tissue, thyroid, lung and a few other sites. Sometimes, following removal or even partial removal of the original tumor, cancer colonies throughout the body disappear. It is as though the original tumor produces something which ties the hands of the body's im- munity machinery, Or as though the body's defenses against the rapidly growing cancer are over- whelmed until the original tu- mor is done away with, Have you noticed how every- thing is up these days?—space- men, the stock market, national debt, interest rates, and the Jones family (the tribe that neighbors attempt to keep up with.) And with these spring days the grass is trying to jump r little higher. ' In some case;, the cancel dis- appears fellow'in;'an acute Mice - lion which in s::u;,c' manner mob- ilizes all the body'; natural de- fenses. On the basis ut the<e uhscrva• lions, we felt that it the body s defenses could be helped along by artificial means, they alight he able to overcome cancer. We undertook an experiment in which half the advanced breast cancer patients, randomly schctcd, were given convention- al surgery, while the other half \ere' given conventional surgery plus a cancer -killing drug, nitr- ogen mustard, during and fol- lowing their operation. Now, five years after starting the procedure, the lied that less than halt as many patients have died in the group given surgery plus the drug as in the group of patients who were given surgery only. It may be that surgery and drugs get rid of most of the cancer, and the body's defenses are able to do the rest of the job. We do not know yet how many more patients actually have been cured by this method thr n by surgery alone, Even better results have been achieved on breast cancer using surgery plus another drug .called TSTA or Thio-Tepa. A report at last year's annual meeting of the American College of Surgeons said: "At present there is a strong indication that . . . Thio-Tepa significantly decreases the prob- ability of recurrence. Of the pre- menopausal patients who had re- ceived this therapy, 95 per cent showed no recurrence 26 months postoperatively, compared with 46 per cent for the controls. Cancer -free rates for postmen- nopausal patients are 89 per cent for those receiving the drug, compared with 66 per cent for the controls," If these results continue to stand up, the combination of drugs plus surgery may reduce substantially the number of wo- men (now about 23,000 a year in the United States) who die of breast cancer. Comparable results have not been achieved so fat' in cancers of any other site, Back around the turn of the century, Dr. W. B. Coley report- ed that a sizable number of can- cer patients who developed ery- sipelas (a severe and dangerous Inflammatory infection) h a d shown dramatic spontaneous re- missions of their cancer's. Erysipelas is almost extinct in the United States, But for many years scientists have been isolat- ing various toxic fractions of bacteria and testing them for anti-cancer effect on laboratory animals. In one laboratory, one bacteri- al toxin has cured about one- third of mice with transplanted cancers. But curative doses have to be high, and for every mouse cured another mouse dies of drug toxicity. Bacterial toxins during the last decade have been used cau- tiously on a few cancer patients. They do not cure human cancer. In a few cases they have given a passing remission, Strong doses are risky. Scientists have tried—and so far in vain—to separate the poi- sonous components from the therapeutic parts of the toxins. Perhaps the toxic and the ther- apeutic fractions are the same, Nevertheless, in a growing number of research centers, scientists are seeking to learn the secrets of spontaneous remis- sion. When they reduce to lab- oratory and clinical procedures the presently mysterious me- chanisms of this miracle, cancer will lose some of its dreadful power.

Checking through about 10 standard cookbooks, 1 find that none of them gives a buttermilk pie recipe, so you may want this for something entirely different from other pies you serve. As you away well imagine, chefs perforin a great favour when cutting a recipe down to small amounts. This one gives ounces for several ingredients, but it will not be difficult to 'figure ounces of sugar into cups, for instanc: 8 ounces equals 1 cup.

Beat egg whites stiff, beating in the 8 ounces of sugar.

This is good served in a chocolate sugar frosted flakes pie shell — it's so easy to make, Peppermint ice cream is espe- cially good in this shell. This makes an 8 -inch pie shell.

Her Whipped Cream Was The Real Thing I never read or hear the words "whipped cream" without think- ing of Grandmother, for these words are closely associated with her in my memory. Grand- mother used whipped cream with a generous hand, and con- sidered it fit for almost all des- serts, The cream she used was none of this vapid stuff that is squeezed out of a container, nor was it like the uncreamlike sub- stance that passes for whipping cream in supermarkets, Grandmother used no such substitutes, but hers was the rich, thick cream from a herd of well-fed, sleek Jerseys, The cream had a tendency to change color with the seasons, In spring and summer when the cows grazed on fresh green grass and clove', it was thick and as yel-. low as gold. When the cows' fodder was hay from the fra- grant haymow, the cream she whipped up was as white as the snow in 11 new snc,wdrift. 1 can sec Grandmother now, egg beater in hand. whipping the cream in her large blue bowl on the work table in the pantry. The whipped cream in the bowl grew and grew till it resembled a fleecy, white cloud against a blue sky, and was thick enough to cut with a knife, writes Melba Baehr in the Christian Science Monitor. Under the whipped cream one was likely to discover fruit. - filled red Jell -0, ti pudding plump with dates or raisins, 01 a fruit salad of bananas, apples, peaches, and grapes. Perhaps the whipped cream concealed a piece of feather -light white cake, of one of Granchnother's good ginge'breads, or there could be several scoop.; of homemade ice cream 21111102 the heap of whip Who Storied Th'Se AFril Fool .i tcc:,?

When January 1st became New Year's Day the Fz'encli w'e•e loath to lose their April festival, so a moat feast was held on the first day of that month. Joke gilts were exchanged, '1'o -clay, April 1st in prance is ca lied the feast of "poisson d'Av- ril," which means a young fish, or April fish, easily caught. The French exchange small chocolate fish on All Fools' Day. Many people think the Feast of tomfoolery is connected with the ancient Hindu Feast of null. This is celebrated on March 31st, when Hindus send -unsuspecting people on phony errands, 13u1 thcologiaps say that April 1st was the beginning of a mediaeval month of prayer for the feeble- minded. That day was also the one day in the Middle Ages when the harmlessly insane were al- lowed out of their cages. Prayers were offered for their cure. The day became known I as All Fool's J)ay. The high-jinks of April 1st are part of life almost all over the world. Spain and Germany ob- ject, however, and Russia does ped cream, One just Dever knew what the cream hid. And in season there was straw- berry shortcake, rich enough to melt In one's mouth, almost hid under the crimson, juicy berries, Naturally, one was certain to find whipped cream, great quan- tities of il, spooned over the shortcake from the blue bowl.

POSTAI, ODDITIES People frequently travel many ,miles to buy a stamp at the post office in Richardson Grove, Cali- fornia, Because it is inside a tree -one of America's great red- wood trees, some of which grow to a height of 3001t, and have a circumference of up to 90 ft. The entrance is through a split in the trunk of the tree and two other giant redwoods serve as the front walls for the main building behind. The world's loneliest post of- fice was established on Floreana Island, about six hundred miles west of Ecuador, South America, It consisted of a large barrel standing on the shore. The islanders dropped their letters into it and passing ships called and collected them, put- ting back into the barrel any poet from the mainland.

R. Thompson of Iowa enjoys the best of two worlds, Ile has nriv- ed that a man can manage a 10,000 -chicken operation success- fully and still keep his place in the educational field. He was helping two you'tg girls with their shorthand when we met him in his office at the Milford 'Township High School, As the noon hour was approach- ing, he excused the girls ,rod was ready to answer our ques- tions about his unusual side line. , i e 1-Iow did he get into it? "Well, our family liked fried chicken," he said with a twinkle in his eye, "I started with a 'row broilers for our own use. Then I got interested and kept ex- panding," Mr. Thompson now has a $50,000 investment in his hen houses and equipment. He took us over to see his plant at Roland, not many miles away. In addition to some 6,000 lay- ers in conventional houses, he cares for 4,000 more hens in in- dividual cages, These are sup- plied hint on a contract arrange- ment with the Ames In -Cross Hatchery, For each of these a daily egg production record must be kept. The records enable the hatchery people to single out the best producers for breeding pur- poses, Mr. Thompson sells their eggs, as the hatchery has no use for then. Seeing all these vigorous red - combed white hens (a Leghorn cross), You naturally wonder who looks after them, Obviously there is a great deal of work in- volved, too much for a school superintendent even if the is an energetic one. Mr. Thompson says he employ's his brother and sister-in-law at the present tin e. Before his sons went to .`I - lege, they did touch of the work. Actually, it was to give them jobs that Mr. Thompson thought of expanding his chicken -farm- ing operations in the first place. His boys needed something to do, and they needed to earn money for college. The chickens provided answers to both re- quirements, 4 f F The older lad, now a sopho- more at Iowa State University, is still paying his expenses with wages he saved from his chick- en -farm days, his father said, Other boys in the neighbour- hood who worked for Mr. Thompson also are using money they earned here to help them through college, writes Dorothea Kahn Jaffe in the Christian Set- ence Monitor, Mr, Thompson has installed automatic feeders to reduce la- bour. They dispense feed by lne clock. Still, there is much to be done.

And, of course, eggs have to be gathered, cleaned, candled ("il sprayed if they are to be put in storage), and cased, Management can be a part-time job, as it is for Mr. Thompson, but to do the detail work full-time em- ployees are needed. 6 1 It's only after his eight or more hours in school administra- tion that the superintendent turns to his hens, He finds it relaxing to visit his flocks, ga- ther eggs, plan improvements in production or distribtuion, "Fascinating work," he says. When he led us Into one of tile layer houses and we saw 1,350 flapping hens and a few cocky rooster's expressing their individual notions about the ar- rival of strangers, we could un- derstand how he feels. It's easy to drop problems of the day in such an animated scene, t, s• Mr. Thompson is interested in the marketing problems of poul- try producers, At the present time competition is keen alld the profit margin small, he says, "An extra penny per dozen in selling price can mean the difference between profit and loss." By selling direct to consumer and eliminating some handling costs, he says, the farmer's profit my be increased, Mr. Thompson sells a consider- able portion of his eggs to the Iowa State University cafeteria. "Hatching eggs," used to produce chicks, the sells at a 10 -cents -a - dozen premium to the hatchtr,y. The hatchery sells these eggs not only in 1113113' parts of the United State but in several countries in Europe. ,< t F Which has paid better, x(11010• istering an institution of nearly 200 rural youngsters from kil,- cicrgarten through high school or producing eggs? 11'Ir, Thomp- son says that depends upon the egg market, which is Variants, '1'he school job is more stacle, whatever the return, and he re- gards his school income as satis- factory. But when he retires to the near future, he thinks the poultry business will be a very nice one to have. He is referring not only to the income it will provide but to the demands it will make upon hint for continu- ed activity, To keep up with modern farm technology requires constant effort, and this Mr. Thompson is prepared to make. 4 rr The use of black polyethylene plastic film as a mulch for strawberry beds promises to double the per acre production of berries in the South, Only about half the increase is due to the plastic itself, by reducing the number of culls, eliminating soil rot, and reducing ctanlage by birds. Hoeing is eliminated, and sav- ings of up to 600 pounds of fer- tilizer per acre are possible by use of the plastic. 4 A. N. Brooks, plant patholo- gist, at Florida's Strawberry In- vestigations Laboratory, Plant City, says the cost of the plastic including labour to apply, runs frotn $85 to $100 an acre, about two-thirds the cost of hoeing alone. Plastic mulch brings the ber- ries into production about 10 days earlier than without it, and Mr. Brooks forecasts that its use will cause a doubling of straw- berry acreage within a year or two. It can be used only in the South or wherever else a single plant row is used rather than the matted -row system.

Barclay Warren 11.A., Out of the Heart Proverbs 3:1-8;4:20-23; Luke 6:43-15. Memory Selection: Keep thy heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of life. Proverbs 4:23. Jeremiah wrote, "The heart Is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?" 1t is from this evil nature of man that sin emerges. Jesus said, "For out of the heart proceed evil thought, murders, adulteries, fornical10ns, thefts, false witness, blasphemies." In our day we inclines to ex- cuse the individual and blame society. We lift the load off the individual and spread it out on the group and thus blame the sin of the individual 00 environ- ment. The fact remains that we are persons with 0 will of our own and 'every one of us shall give account of himself to God." What is the remedy for man's bad heart? First, we must admit it, Then we 000 become really concerned about the cure, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, W33 manifested that he might destroy the works of the devil, We may do some reforming on our own, but we can't effect a cleansing of our heart. "if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our =i!1,, and tis cleanse us from all unrighteous - 11035." When (ce repent of our sins, the Holy Spirit will guide us into faith in Jesus Christ; the living active faith that invoices our committing ourselves fully to 1-Iinl, "'frust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In alt they sways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths." The memory selection exhorts us to guard the heart, When we have been forgiven of all our sins and our heart has been puri- fied by the indwelling Spirit, (Acts 15:9), we need to watch against the wiles of the devil. "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against pavers, against the rulers of the dark- ness of this world, against spiri- tual wickedness in high places." When there is no hostile attitude toward God's will from within, we have full access to God's power that we can overcome the evil forces without. We must keep the heart pure. As we eon- tlnue walking in the light the blood of Jesus Christ cleanseth us from all sin. (1 John 1:7). • ISSUE 18 -- 1961 5. Curtain pQmateria 1 10.

Ingrid, herself, is undisturbed by the flurry of controversy.

An invitation to lunch with the First Lady sent excitement through the whole feminine press corps recently, There was the usual feminine comment on "what to wear," how to reply to the invitation, and so on, ''Never 'use a ball point pen," advised one purist— the implication being that this would be as gauche as using a pencil, Almost at the last minute, a rumor swept through the Press Building that "the girls aren't going to wear hats!" There was consternation until it became evident that the rumor stemmed from a small contingent averse to mussing their hair -do, most of whom don't wear hats anyway, One newspaper woman sport- ing a bright flowered number confessed she had bought it "about half an hour ago." There is a special aura about the White House, It is hard to define, It is not so much what one sees there but the way one feels about it. My. first visit to the White House was during the war when I arrived in Washington in time to attend some of Mrs, Roose- velt's last press conferencesthere. _ We congregated upstairs in the now off -limit family rooms. One has a feeling of awe on entering the White House for the first time. It is an emotion pe- culiar to Americans, I suppose. I don't know that I agree with Mrs. Kennedy that the White House has a "cold" appearance, She saw it first as an 11-year- eld when she was taken there by her mother. She recalls it as seeming austere and lacking in warmth, That is why she is try- ing to make it seem more "home- like" now to the thousands of school children who tour the downstairs public rooms, In a recent television inter- view she spoke of her effort to make certain that there are flowers on the tables and fires burning in the fireplaces in the winter. Through her new Fine Arts Commission, the First Lady is hoping to recover for the White House "more pieces of beautiful furniture that belonged to all the Presidents." The White House has very little antique furniture now. Most of its original furnishings were burned in the War of 1812. La- ter, Presidents who came and went disposed of the furniture as they liked, Some of it turas even auctioned o f f i n Lafayette Square, across frcm the White ' 11ouse. Chairman of Ivirs. • Kennedy's commission is Henry B. du Pont, director of the Winterthur Cor- poration, Winterthur is the famed du Pont museum in Wil- mington of fine American furni- ture and decorative objects of the 1640 to 1840 period, "Anyone who has seen Winter thur will kow that we are seri- ous in what we hope to do," Mrs. Kennedy stated during the television interview. "We don't really want to re- - strict it to any special period because this house can't be a rigid museum. Everyone who has lived in it is a part of it, We just want to get the hest things." Living in the White House has Its problems, particularly when It comes to raising children in HANDLE WITH CARE — "Crated for export," Paris model, Janine, wears a new short spring and summer hair style of hairdress- er Henry Prevost, Prevost gives his creation a final check before Janine and other models de- part for the United States, the constant glare of publicity that, surrounds the nation's first family, writes Josephine Ripley in the Christian Science Monitor. Mrs. Kennedy gave as an ex- ample her desire to take Caroline to the circus. She finally de- cided against it because she knew it would immediately focus at- tention on her daughter and spoil it all for her. So Caroline was sent to the circus with a friend where, un- recognized, she had just the kind of a good time any child would, "I worked so hard to make her little ballet school a private thing we could do together — and there were all the photog- raphers waiting there when we got there. So it is a little hard," So far she feels Caroline has not been changed by the atten- tion, "She is still too little," but Mrs. Kennedy confessed that she looks forward with some appre- hension to the time when her daughter will start going to school. As she put it:",., • if she Is in the papers all the time, that will affect her little classmates and they will treat her differ- ently. That is why I ata so anxi- ous—we always treat her the same, but it is how other people treat her because they have read about her." The Kennedy children's play- ground, with the string, jungle gym, and sand box, is so close to the street press photographers had no trouble at all snapping pictures of Caroline at play re- cently, They have been especial- ly requested not to do this again. Caroline and her brother were nowhere to be seen when news- paper women arrived for their luncheon party. Parties at the White House can be exciting for those who attend them. But possibly young tenants peeping out of upstairs windows may have a different point of view. The possibility of installing stamp -selling machines on mail boxes intrigues the U.S. Post Office, Some wives think the Innovation needs a mechanical arm to tap husbands on the arm to remind tlietn to also MAIL the letter. GREAT RECEPTION TO GRAND OLD MAN — U.S, dignitaries visit Churchill aboard ship Churchill's quiet return was in contrast to a previous visit over nine years ago. In January 1952, the then Prime Minister received a standing ovation, right, as he addressed a joint session of Congress in Wash- . ington, Churchill announced he had come "not for gold but • for steel" as Britain in those days sought to relieve an economic crisis, RONICLES ¶G1NGER FARM ,, dlw*d.oLLmt 0 Clatiut • What a day — rain, snow and high winds; ditches running and the backyard like a swamp, But thank goodness all the moisture is outside, not so much as a trickle in the basement. And speaking of moisture, we are now able to drink water straight from th tap without that awful taste and odour of phenol that was with us for over a week. The township water commission still isn't sure of the source of the phenol, Wherever it came from we certainly hope we don't get it again. However, it answer- ed one good purpose — it made us appreciate our usually good water supply, And yet I suppose we shouldn't let such trivial natters as wea- ther and water concern us when bigger events are taking place — Russia sending the first man into space; signs of more trouble In Cuba, and so on and so forth. By comparison you and I are little people, aren't we . . . little people who understand our small everyday problems better than problems of space and revolu- tions, And isn't it better so — that is, better for our peace of mind? In our immediate family Jerry aas developed German measles — right after the three of thein had just recovered from chicken- pox. Gustav, the new pup, is still Is still providing Dee with plenty of exercise in her attempts to get hint house-broken. And we have had dog difficulties of an- other nature. Last Wednesday two black retrievors were frisk- ing around outside with Taffy. They were lovely dogs, friendly and full of fun but cane to us directly when they were called. Obviously they had escaped cus- tody from someone or some place. Between us Partner and 1 managed to catch them and tie then up — we were so afraid they woulci ,..ct hit on the road. We foun 1 they Carrie.; tag giv- ing the name, t c dress enc. phone number of thi it ownei ; — wise precaution — making it a simple n;:t'te! 4 con' t 1 them which we did The f •i dcnn of the dogs was soon explained The lady of the house had gone shopping, leaving the ten - months -aid dogs in a fenced -in enclosure. They had climbed it and jumped over the top. To get here they had crossed the busy Dundas Highway, so you can imagine how delightful Mrs, — was to get them back again, safe and unharmed, Our next excitement was watching the N,H,L, hockey tele- cast. The finals were the most exciting of any series that we remember, Now hockey is over for another season and in their play for the Stanley Cup, the Chicago Black Hawks have won a well-deserved victory. Workwise 1 have been busy catching no on nr,ttsohntd bunk - keeping, Which leads to a cru- cial que::tiou , . , t; t:, or it, worthwhile to keep track of day by day expenditure? One person whose opinion I asked replied — "It is bad enough spending the money without worrying about where it goes." Another couple told Hie they al- ways live on a well-balanced budget. As for us we don't at- tempt to budget but we do keep an itemized account of every- thing we spend. That way we know if we rare spending too much in any one direction, I'ni the bRtok-keeper in our fancily. I find it fun — and full of sur- prises, 1 have my own system of book-keeping — which probably no one else would understand! I keep a rough, everyday record which at the end of the week I break down into separate head- ings and enter into a three -col- umn account book, It was with the weekly account book I was behind, but it vas quite easy to bring it up to elate, And here is what I found, During the first fifteen weeks of 1961, in com- parison with 1900, we spent more on fuel but less on food, gas and drugs. And Partner is strutting like a peacock because during that same period he itas smoked one can less of tobacco! Other things were more or less equal so that the overall picture show- ed a decrease of about three dollars weekly. Now, in view of all the public- ity there has been just lately about what it costs to live it 11tt, hl int t n 1 riot.'. Ill:it our lulal out), i.•r food cacti week aver:, -c-, 312.U1.

But at this stage of the game saving work is as important as saving money. The most important thing as 1 see it is to live within one's income — and to pay cash right across the hoard, installment buying is something of which we have never approved. If we haven't got the money for what we want we do without it. Wart ago i heard a lecture in which the speaker said — "If you earn 95 cents and spend a dollar you're in trouble." That is al true today as it was then, and always will be.
