flowers formed the background for

Tuberculosis Prevention
Public knowledge and interest in the problems of
tuberculosis prevention and cure is constantly in*
creasing, according to a statement made recently by
Dr. W. J. Bobbie, chairman of the advisory medical
committee of the National Sanitarium Association,
"■but," he added, “there is still much yet to be done
in getting people to know more about the disease that
is still the greatest single caus= of death between the
ages of 15 and 45.'*
Dr. Dobbie stated that in a recent Gallup survey on
tuberculous, only 18 people in 100 knew that the
disease was caused by a germ. He declared that it
was a remarkable fact that after 30 years of educa
tional effort by doctors and health authorities, more
than 80 per cent of those questioned did not know that
tuberculosis was caused by a germ, even if they did
not know the name of the germ.
The survey further revealed that one person out
of four did not think tuberculosis was contagious,
end more than half believed it was inherited at birth,
although doctors generally believe that tuberculosis
is not inheritable.
Medical authorities found encouragement in the
answers to the two final questions in the survey.
Asked if they believed tuberculosis was curable, 86
per cent answered in the affirmative. Many of those
questioned were able to name in the right order three
ef the essential factors for effecting a cure—rest,
proper diet and fresh air—but only a small percent
age realized that patients in sanatoria stood the best
chance of getting well.
Speculating on the reason for the public’s greater
knowledge of how tuberculosis can be cured rather
than how it is contracted and how it develops, Dr.
Dobbie suggested that methods of treatment and cure
had been given more stress than the causes of the
disease and its diagnosis.
“One would have thought,” he commented, “that
(because sanatoria are so numerous, this method of
cure would have been the choice of the majority of
those surveyed. There was a time when ‘Go West’ or
‘Go South’ would have been the stock answers. Evn
the majority of doctors would" have given one of these
replies.
"Some progress has therefore been made,” con
cluded Dr. Dobbie. “The public’s knowledge is con
stantly increasing, as is also their interest. But there
is a great deal^yet to be done in getting people to
know more about a disease that is still the greatest
single cause of death among people between the ages
of 15 and 45 years-^-a most valuable and productive
period of life.”
Soil-less Plants
For over 70 years it has been known that plants
could be grown without the use of soil. However, it
■wasn’t until recently that this type of cultivation
became very widespread.
A soil-less farm has been established on "Wake Is
land in midiPacific, where vegetables are grown for
the use of of passengers of the Pacific Clipper air
ships. The success of this venture is astounding, and it
is reported that the yields have been tremendous.
Soil, after all, merely furnishes an anchorage for
the roots, water in which are dissolved minerals neces
sary to the growth of the plant, and of course oxygen.
Therefore, if some means of support was given the
roots and the essential minerals were dissolved in
■water, it seems reasonable to expect a normal plant
growth. In California, the seeds or young plants are
placed in wire baskets in a bed of shavings, peat
moss, chopped straw or excelsior, and the roots hang
down in a nutrient solution in a tray beneath. If
there is plenty of sunlight and a good fresh supply
of water in which are dissolved the proper minerals,
the plants will thrive and produce fruit of as fine a
flavour and texture aa ordinary soil grown plants.
There arc several advantages in this water
culture, which at first might be overlooked. Soil-less
growth conserves space, as there is plenty of plant
food available, and the necessity for spacing the
plants far apart is eliminated. There is the free
dom from common soil diseases, which are carried by
decaying matter in the soil, and freedom from insects
and weeds. Growers are assured of consistently uni
form crops, year after year." Larger yields are receiv
ed, from soil-less grown,plants. For instance at one
prominent Experimental Station tomato vines grewover fifteen feet tall and produced more than twenty
pounds of fruit per vine. It is a simple matter to
start young plants and to remove old ones'" with this
new method of cultivation. Finally, the place factor
entero into the question. Water-culture, or chemi-cul-
ture as it is sometimes called, can be conducted on
sites that otherwise would be useless.
.Taking a glance into the future of this fascinating
new industry, it is not impossible to visualize a
steady increase in its popularity, not only as a hobby,
but as a commercial enterprise. A resent edition of a
publication called Plant Chemiculture states that the
waste vegetation which grow so abundantly in water
culture, could be utilized in the modern wonder pro
cess—plastics. The author goes on to say that the
vegetation could be digested and fermented for motor
fuels. Trtrty it is an industry linking field with factory
without the necessity of soil.
Help For Farmer*
Farmers throughout the province are to have the
co-operation of the Ontario Government in securing
inexperienced but able-bodied young men for two or
three months for haying, harvesting and general farm
work.
In making this announcement, N. O. Hipel, Minister
of Labour, intimated that the Ontario Department of
Labour, had made arrangements to register all work
ers who would be wfllipg to help harvest the crops

HEALTH LEAGUE ofCANADA Goodhand FamilyAnnual ReunionPRESERVE YOUR HEALTH“The waste and wickedness of un
necessary disease and death resulting
from such disease should be even
more evident in wartime than in
peace-time and efforts to prevent
illness in wartime should be more
strenuous than ever before,” declares
the leading editorial in the current
issue of “Health," organ of the
Health League of Canada.
Deploring "the shortsightedness
of governments which attempt to
economize by reducing expenditures
on health conservation machinery,"
the editorial points out that a cur
tailing of’health "measures will result
in increased illness and death rates
and ultimately greater costs to the
community.
"There should be no decrease in
national health expenditures, but in
creases,” the editorial continues.
"There should be no let-up in the
fight against disease. There should be
no possibility of losing the war by
neglect on the home front as Ger
many did in the last war.”
The Health League of Canada
calls upon Canadian citizens to “rise
to a new sense of our responsibilities
one to another and to our common
citizenship.”
“War, terrible though it is, is but
a transitory phase, which will end,”
the editorial concludes. “Human
beings will live on after the war in a
world which will be to a degree as
good or bad as we who are involved
in the war make it
“Each individual should endeavor
to keep his own health at as high a
level as possible and to see that
every effort is made to preserve the
health of its fellow citizens.”
About 60 were in attendance at theannual Goodhand reunion held lastWednesday at Memorial Park, Ingersoll. After a delicious dinner, a short
business meeting was held. The offi
cers for the coming year are as
follows:
President, William H. White; vice-

Pork Storage Situation
POISON IVY
This is the season for Poison Ivy,
which may grow as a low scrubby
patch in lence corners, or as a
climber like the Virginia Creeper. It
grows in wet or dry ground, in shady
or exposed places and in any soil
from sand to rocky ground. Usually
found in woods or fields, it may
grow in cities. H is a hardy plant..
The leaves of poison ivy, altern
ately borne on the stem, are com
pound, consisting of three similiar
leaflets as in the /strawberry. Hence
the legend: "Leaves three, let it be.”
The leaves are firm, smooth and
glossy; the margins may be entire or
coarse-notched. In early summer
clusters of small, whitish flowers
arise from the axils of the leaves;
these are succeeded by round, dull
white berries the size of a field pea..
The berries, fleshy at first, are later
dry and firm. No other plant has the
same trifoliate leaves and white
fruits, The Virginia creeper, which is
not poisonous, has clusters of blue
fruits on red stalks and its leaves arc
in fives.the poisonous principle of poison
ivy is a volatile oil which is present
in all parts of the plant, root, stem,
leaf, flower, fruit and even in the
detached hairs. Bruising of any part
of the plant liberates the oil and if
any of it comes in contact with the
body there is a resulting dermatitis
or inflammation of the skin. Children
are more susceptible than adults.
Eradication of plant by grubbing
out, by herbicides such as ten per
cent solution of the cheap sod, chlor
ide (Common Salt), one pound to a
gallon of water. This quantity will
suffice for 200 sq. yards. The first
application should be made about the
first of June and the next about
mid-July when the foliage begins to
re-appear. The plant spreads by seeds'
and not by creeping. If^one suspect*
that the oil has reached the skin, the
parts should be washed in laundry
soap and warm water, or, better, in a
" 5 per cent solution of chloride of iron
in equal parts of water and glycer
ine. These will neutralize the poison.
Desentization treatments ere advis
able for those peculiarly sensitive.
The first sign of ivy poisoning is a
slight itching followed by reddening
of the skin. Blisters appear in .a few
hours. There may be but one. Lack
ing treatment the blisters break
down. 1
If the oil has reached the unpro
tected skin, say of the hands,' they
should be washed vigorously in laun
dry soap and warm water, rinsed
and again washed in fresh water, and
soap. This will probably suffice if
the oil has not penetrated the skin.
Washing with coal oil, alcohol, or
gasoline also keeps the poison from
spreading. The usual treatment is by
means of 8 per cent solution of pot
ash permanganate which dyes the
ddn a deep brown. The colour is
readily removed. It destroys the pois
on by oxidation. • After blisters are
formed, rubbing should bo avoided.
At this stage, if bllstera are not ooz
ing, cool lotions of soda, boracic or
ton's Hardware
calamine are useful. If oozing, crusts
may form under the lotions and re
tain the poison. A lotion of sugar of
lead is very useful. Oily substances
should not be used as they dissolve
the oil of the plant allowing it to
spread to other parts.
On July 1, 1940, supplies of pork
in cold storage in Canada were 68,-
251,560 lb. as compared with 33,-
673,361 lb. on July 1, 1939. Of the
amount in storage on July 1, 1940,
however, 22,567,000 lb. were to the
account of the Bacon Board, and
being earmarked for export, were
not a load on the domestic market.
: Therefore, cold storage supplies less
the amount to the credit of the
Board, were 45,684,560 lb., an
amount only approximately 12,000,-
000 lb. more than at July 1 last
year.
In view of the fact that hog runs
are showing substantial seasonal de
clines, domestic consumption is reach
ing a high point of the year and the
Bacon Board requires for export
weekly 5,600,000 lb. of bacon, a vol
ume approximately 80 per cent
greater than the average weekly ex
ports a year ago, the actual load of
product on the domestic market is
consequently not excessive.
In comparison with the stocks re
ported on June 1, 1940, there was a
decrease on July 1 representing a net
out of storage movement of 6.7 mil
lion lb. as compared with 3.4 million
lb. a year ago.
The product to the account of the
Board is being exported at an aver
age of from 2,000,000 lb. to 2,500,-
000 lb. weekly, thus making up about
forty per cent ow the weekly exports I
of 5,600,000 lb. of bacon. Continuing [
at that rate, this product should bo
cleared entirely .by the end of Aug
ust, and if hog runs continue to
show the present seasonal decline, the
clearance may be earlier. Since July
1, hog runs at yards and plants have
decreased to a weekly average of
about 71,750 head from a weekly
average in the month of June
of about 81,000 head. *
This indicates a favorable domestic
situation at the season of peak con
sumption of pork products.

Home Preservation
of Canadian Fruits
Canadian grown fruits will be on
the market for several months.
Strawberries and cherries are about
finished and now raspberries are at
their best, which will be followed by
plums, peaches and other fruits until
the last late varieties of pears and
apples.
This year it is important that all
perishable products <be saved as much
as possible as someone will need them
next winter.'
The aim in home preservation of
fruit and vegetables is to prevent
spoilage and preserve food value while
retaining natural flavour, color and
shape. Canning, whether in glass jars
or tin cans, meets these characteris
tics. The degree of perfection de
pends on the care taken in the pro
cess. From careful selection and
cleansing to the last detail of storage
only strict attention to every step
will assure perfect result.
The home-makai: may store Can
adian fruit in a variety of forms
ready for instant use in winter meals.
Fruits canned in thin syrup or

made into thick syrupy preserves or
jam are used in most homes. Jelly,
clear and sparkling in its jewel tones,
makes a useful picture on many
shelves. But the home canner does
well to remember that “variety is the
spice of life.” Fruit *uices may ba
canned for use as bre .kfast appetizers or cooling drinks^ These juices
may also be made into jelly as re
quired by using commercial pectin or
may be made into syrups and used in
drinks or thickened with cornstarch
for sauces. Fruit in its own juico
with no sugar is excellent for break
fast, for special diets, or for pies.
Mixtures of fruits are good for sal
ads or fruit cocktails. Fruits chopped

There has never been a news
paper printed that satisfied

FILTERS FOR BETTER PICTURES
In taking thia shot, a Alter was used to reproduce the aky tone so that
the white smoke would stand out. Try filters—they’ll Improve your pictures, and add* interest.
CILOR filters—simple little de
vices that slip on over yourcamera lens—can add a lot to the
quality and value of your snap
shots. If you’ve never used filters,now Is a good time to start. Air the
experts use them, and they'll mark
a big forward step in your own per
sonal photography.
Slip a medljim yellow K-2 filteron your lens, load the camera with
any good /chrome” or “pan" film,
and you get pictures with more
natural tone values. Or, in techni
cal phrase, more accurate rendering of relative brightnesses as seen
by the eye. Which, briefly, means
that your picture of any outdoor
subject will come closer to khowlngthings as you saw them when you
snapped the shutter.
Slip a deep yellow G filter bn
your lens, and you’ll get clearer,
- better pictures of distant aceneathat would look hazy in an ‘‘nnfll-

that look deeper than normal tntone—very effective In some picto

Insect*, Disease* inVegetable GardenaSuccessful control of garden pests■« linked in a definite way with goodfarming practice Under many conditions, cultural practice may be justas important as the application of in
secticides or fungicides and the use
of other methods of artificial control.
By good farming practice, states the
War-Time Production Series Bulletin
of the Agricultural Supplies Board on
the "Control of Insects and Diseases
in Vegetable Gardena,’* is meant
such activities as garden sanitation,
which includes the collection and
destruction of crop remnants at the
time the edible portion are harvested,
and the cleaning up of the debris in
autumn or early spring, as well as
the burning over of waste land and
weed patches in the vicinity of gar
dens, where many insects and disease
producing organisms spend the win
ter in a variety of stages; the care
ful selection of plants and seeds;
crop rotation, and the careful culti
vation of the soil prior to and fol*,
lowing seedling and transplanting.
Details about insects attacking
vegetables and the diseases of veget
ables and their control are given in
this special pamphlet which may be
obtained free from the Publicity and

From the effects described, you
can see that filters open up an
interesting new range of picturepoasibllltles. The K-2 is the best
all-round filter, so start with that,adding the G and A when you are7

- Every filter, of course, cuts out
part of the light to which a film issensitive, so exposure must be in

ROYAL CANADIAN AIRFORCEWith clocklike regularity, whichhas been clicking steadily for weeksnew, student airmen under the British Commonwealth Air TrainingPlan are pouring into ths huge Tech
nical Trainir< School at St. Thomaa.
The a’ctive population of the local
organization now has reached pro
portions of that of a town.
Climaxing months of painstaking
work, which had to provide for equip
ment, materials and accommodation
to handle , the flow of airmen, the
school now is in full swing as a unit
of the training scheme under which
all units had to function like the
meshes of a gear wheel. Within a
few days now, fully qualified Acro-
Engine Mechanics (A.E.M’s) and
Air Frame Mechanics (A.F.M.'s),
will begin to emerge. And from that
day on a steady production of 121
finished men will issue every week,
to make way for the steady arrival
of 121 beginners.
T.T.S., as the school is called by
citizens and pupils alike, is the big
gest single unit of the air training
scheme which incorporates 111 for
mations and units, scattered from
coast to coast and includes 71 schools
for air crews alone. It is the focal
point for young men from every
part of Canada who will become the
mechanical forces of the organiza
tion which must maintain hundreds
of aircraft at the stations all over
the Dominion or the ground crews
accompanying squadrons overseas.
It is a huge educational centre,
drawing its pupils from everywhere
in Canada and distributing them
back when they are graduated.
Not until a visitor has toured its
miles of corridors, and watched its
hundreds of instructors at work, is
it possible to realize just why vol
umes of men were not produced in
the first few months of war. But
after one visit, it is apparent: it is
impossible to turn out fully qualified
men in any vocation without the nec
essary mechanical equipment, the
materials for study, (engines, air
craft, etc.), and the trained teachers.
For months these important fac
tors have been assembling in great
quantities, and for several weeks
they have been at full strength. As
a result, more than two thousand stu
dents are studying every' day, witn
not one open or idle hour. From 6
o’clock every morning until dinner
time at night, they follow a routine
schedule that doesn't miss a man. In
the words of a prominet motorcar
manufacturer who visited the school
recently, “This is the nearest thing
to line production of human experts
that has ever been conceived."
To get an idea of the school’s ob
jective, it to necessary briefly to visu
alize the whole training plan. It is
an organzation which seeks to take
raw material in humans and train
them into a fighting aerial force.
This includes, pilots, observers, gun
ners, wireless operators, maintenance
crews, meteorologists, etc. It also
must include accountants, cooks, parts
experts, stockroom men, equipment
men, etc. Pilots cannot train in air-

craft that will not function, nor caathoy fight in machines which are notin perfect mechanical condition. Andin aircraft this laat applies! to air-framee (airplane skeletons), fabric,instruments and so on.Try to visualize, with the meagrebackground, what is necessary therefore, to turn out, and later support,a pilot, whether he be fighter ortwin-engine bomber expert. With
this knowledge, Royal Air Force and
Royal Canadian Air Force chiefs,
with the best civilian brains avail
able, worked out a pattern: So,many
of each qualification of men must be
available to produce pilots. But they
just weren’t existent. Every avail
able man was taken, but their num
bers still fell far, very* far, short of
the needed total. So the available
men became teachers of the new men
who had to be created.
That describes T.T.S. Add to the
above that pupils had to be taught
on real aircraft and pero engines at
a time when aircraft and engines had
suddenly acquired a premium value
and rarity second only to the dove of
peace. Engines had to be begged and
bought Antiques were no good. Air
craft had to be scraped together
from here and there. Evidence of the
perseverance of the high command of
the scheme is seen in the fact that
today T.T.S. had more than 50 air
craft in is equipment, with hundreds
of engines, carburetors, mugnetoes
and other materials.
With this description of the pur
pose of the school, the method of its
attainment assumes greater interest
First, the school's size, and ability to
be co-ordinated in one big centre,
rests on the provision of the buildings
of the new Ontario Hospital here,
donated by the Government of On
tario. Whereas other divirions of the
training plan have been broken up
to place similar units (i.e. elementary
flying schools) at many points, these
buildings made it possible to centre
everything at this plant.
The buildings are in two main div
isions/Administrations headquarters
on one side of the highway; Opera
tions and schools on the other side.
The latter is alone important in sur
veying its functions. These buildings
are huge, of the most modern con
struction. They consist of two long
central corridors from which four
tremendous wings jut out in oppo
site directions. The first pair of
wings house offices and lecture
rooms; the other three wings are liv
ing quarters for men, including rec
reation rooms, libraries, etc.
The men are divided into exactly
the divisions represented by the
building’s description: Wing No. 1,
consisting of Squadrons 1, 2," and 3,
occupies the northerly trio of wings;
Wing No. 2, with its Squadrons 4, 5,
and 6, is in the southerly trio. One
wing lives, works and plays one hour
ahead of the other wing. Thus, so
far as instructors and equipment are
concerned, (and also culinary pro
visions), the school is divided into
two sections. This permits dual use
of everything, which rAeans twice as
much time on any subject or mater
ials, than if the whole body were
taught together.
Scattered around these buildings
are the new structures' erected under
the Training plan, consisting of tech
nical shops, hangars and.so on. These
buildings are vast, capable of housing
hundreds of students at one time.
For instance, glance at aero-engine
students at study. In a long lofty
fireproof building are scores of in
structors, each with an areo-engine
on a block. Around each is a little
group of a dozen aircraftmen. Their
area is clearly marked, because they
mustn't crowd over into the next in
structor's place. They listen atten
tively to, what is said, are invited to
ask questions, watch him while he
methodically tears the engine down,
explaining every item.
As they leave him, in moves the
identical group from the other Wing,
following one hour behind them.
They pass on, pefhaps. to Carbure
tion, where they have been preceded
by units from thejr own Wing and
will be followed by units from Wing
No. 2. Thus it goes on all day long.
After actual mechanical study, they
return to lectures for blackboard
studies. Each day they study theory,
because to understand engines they
must know metals, fuels, oils, clear
ances and a thousand other things.
This last description applies only
to apro-engine students. In another
huge building nearby, exactly the
same processes are being followed
by airframe men.* An instructor
leads his group over to an bonest-to-
goodneas airplane and slashes its
fabric with a knife, and his wide-eyed
students watch as he goes to work
at fixing that slash. They have earl
ier learned about fabrics, metal and
wood frames, dope, paint Others
stand in long rows, as far as the eye
can discern their actions, and weld
metal tubing together or glue strips
of wood into sections.
These men are studying in these
proportions; GO aero-engine men toevery 55 airframe men, Experienceshows that these proportions (counting available men now) will be the: needs of the Air Force. Sometimesthere may be fluctuations, becausethe odd man faib to measure up orfalls ill. Tribute to the efficiency ofthe organization behind the scheme,however, is seen in the fact that noman to date has flopped through in
efficiency or lack of application. .
Examinations are written regular
ly with finishing or final exams at the
finish. No favoritism can occur be
cause numbers are distributed just
before the exam is written and these
numbers are not matched to the men
until after the results of the papers
have reached Administration.
The men come from the Manning
Depots through which every Air
Force recruit originally flows. As
they enter school, they are of the
rank assgned them at the Depot:
Aircraftman, Second-Class. As they
emerge, they come out A.E.M.’n or
A.F.M.’s. In addition, and not men
tioned above, there are officers, tak

small, as are instrument makers,
electrical experts, machine tool op

These also are taught at T.T.S. Their
numbers are small in comparison
with the big “show”; yet these men
are essential to the operation of th*
whole machine when it gets into full

high spirit of co-operation in the
school. Because you can talk to any

MARGARET R. MOONWEDS L ROBINSONA pretty summer wedding *seMdamniaad at the home *t Mr. andMt* W. E. G. iloon, 28 Cathetinestreet, Ingersoll, on Saturday after noon, July 20th. when their only-daughter, Margaret Ruth, was unitedin marriage to Mr. Leonard Robinson,of Ingersoll, only son of Mrs. Flor-cnee. Robinson of Edinburgh, Scotland, and the late Lieutenant H. L.
Robinson. The ceremony was per
formed at three o'clock by Rev.
Charles D. Daniel, minister of Trinity
United Church, in the presence of
about forty-flve guests.
The young bride who was given in
marriage by her father, was lovely in
a street length gown of sheer white
crepe, a white picture hat, and car
ried a -bouquet of pink and white
sweet peas, carnations, larkspur and
fem. She was attended by her aunt,
Mis? Helen Moon, who was becoming
ly attired m champagne raw silk,
with beige hat and white accessories.
Her bouquet was of blue and white
larkspur, sweet peas and fern. Mr.
Albert George of Ingersoll, supported
the groom as best man. Soft wedding
music was played by Mrs. Cecil Mill-
son of London, aunt of the bride,
who also played, “Because,” during
the signing of the register.
Following the ceremony a recept
ion was held. Mrs. Moon received,
wearing a summer frock of royal
blue crepe with white hat and acces
sories and a corsage of pink roses.
Mrs. C. Webb, with whom the groom
made his home in Ingersoll, also re
ceived, wearing navy crepe, navy hat
and white accessories. Her corsage
was of red roses. A. buffet lunch was
served by Misses Lorna Foster, Lon
don, and Dorothy Moon, Ingersoll,
cousins of lhe bride, and Audrey
Webb, also of Ingersoll. The rooms
were attractively done in a color
scheme of pink and white with
streamers extending from the corn
ers to the centre, from which was
suspended a white, bell. Bouquets of
mixed summer bloom about the
house added to the beauty of the
setting. The bride’s table was cov
ered with a lovely ecru lace cloth,
and was centred with a large tierred
wedding cake topped with white rose
buds. Tall white candles and silver
completed the setting.
Following the reception Mr. and
Mr.-. Leonard Robinson left on a
motor trip-to-Toronto and points
east, and upon their return will take
up residence in Ingersoll. For trav
elling, the bride wore a smart sum
mer frock of pink crepe with white
hat and matching accessories.
Out of town guests wert present
from London, St Catharines, Fer
gus and Woodstock.
The Country Homes
Depart. Neighborhood
Workers Association «
In addition to the children and
mothers sent each summer to Camp
Bolton, the Neighborhood Workers’
Association strives to provide holi
days for some 1,200 children who
for various reasons cannot be sent
to camp.
Through the Country Home De
partment these children are sent to
homes within a radius of 150 miles
from Toronto. The Neighborhood
Workers’ Association pays all trans
portation costs but no board is paid.
Persons living in the country who
have room in their home for one or
two children generously co-operato
with the N.W.A. by taking city chil
dren for a two weeks’ vacation per
iod free of charge.
It is not expected that the hostess
will lay out any elaborate plan of
entertainment for the child. Any
home that can offer a garden—or a
nearby green field (practically un
known to many children who live in
the factory areas); three plain, nour
ishing meals a day, and a comfort
able bed, can be a happy holiday
spot
Holiday homes need not be any
great distance from the city. Even
homes on.the outskirts of Toronto
can provide unbelievable pleasure
GUTTAPERCHA
10O% CANADIAN
OVER 57 YEARS EXPERIENC
BRITISH INDUSTRIES— From Robert William*** —
for children who live in the crowded
downtown areas.
Pressing need of the Neighborhood
Workers* Association at present is
to locate farm homes where boys
from eight to twelve years of age
can realise their dream of “living
on a real farm.”
Hostesses of previous years have,
in a great many cases, invited back to
their homes the children who visited
them last year. Also, there is Very
little difficulty in placing small chil
dren around four to seven years of
age. But there are hundreds of chil
dren over seven—many of whom arc
called upon to bear heavy responsi
bilities in their homes—who are in
need, and very deserving of a vaca
tion.
Letters of invitation should be ad
dressed to the Neighborhood Work
ers’ Association, Country Homes De
partment, 22 Wellesley Street, Tor
onto. They should state clearly how
many ctyidren are invited; the age
and sex preferred, and give details
of the best transportation route,
and where the children will be met;
also a letter of reference from the
minister of their church.
AU children are medically exam
ined before leaving Toronto.
BRITISH BLOODSTOCK MYSTERYSwrst Sk.p—t *f R«l«« HorsesTo U.S.A. StoMosA mystery surrounds lhe export,now begun, of British racing bloodstock to U.S.A., studs and trainingstable*.The shipment of eight animal* included three brood mare* valued atmany thousand* of dollars. A num
ber of yearlings with pedigrees of
the most illustrious names in British
racing have also crossed the Atlantic
safely. Others are to follow soon.
All these facta are admitted; but
British bloodstock breeders can give
no clue either to the British owner*
who have sold out or to the Anler-
ican purchasers, not even one of the
names of the animals* pedigree. The
secret is beiug kept.
Horse racing in Britain has been
suspended indefinitely, which means
a serious financial loss to owners with
horse* in training. On an average
costa in Britain £5 a week to keep a
horse in training, a figure which is
mounting with the rising cost of
feeding stuffs.
Although therefore British racing
men are not unalarmed by the pres
ent exodus of some of their heat
stock they feel that their horses will
be better off in U.S.A, than running
out on grass in the war zone.
Moreover, the money paid for
them will be of considerable help in
the drive for dollar exchange, a
question which is more important
than any other to British sporting
men to-day.
FISH CURERS’ S.O.S.
Give* War Job To Ancient English
Industry
With the spread of war to the
Meditteranean, the big fish-curing in
dustries of Iceland and the Faroe
Islands are now obliged to use a
superior quality of salt, and the Eng
lish county of Cheshire is supplying
it..
This little known but important
British industry has been in exist
ence for nearly 2,000 years, and is
now benefiting by increased export
demands from British Colonies and
the West Coast of Africa, where
German and Dutch salt is no longer
procurable.
For many years fish curers ia
Northern latitudes have used solar
.salt, formed by the action of the sun
on lagoons and ponds, and shipped to
them from Mediterranean ports.
Now their salt is supplied from
Cheshire where it is made from the
natural pure brine by modern meth
ods and is without the impurities
necessarily present in solar salt. As
a general rule, fish realise higher
'prices when cured with English salt.
This regained trade for the Cheshire
industry can hardly compensate for
the loss of the Scandinavian and
Baltic markets, but the trade has
withstood greater blows than this in
a history beginning when the Rom
ans first made salt in England by
boiling brine in open lead pans.
The 63 manufacturers who formed
the old Salt Union, now a part of
Imperial Chemical Industries, weath
ered many crises in the past. The
Salt Tax, the process for making
soda without the use of salt, and the
introduction of solar salt, which ser
iously affected the important Indian
market, were three of their major
difficulties. A substantial foothold
in India has now been regained for
English salt

should an incendiary bomb pene
trate the roof of a house, it will im
mediately be electrically recorded on
an indicator board and the fire fight
ers can get to work without delay.
Incendiary bombs do not explode,
and the sound made by one that has
cut through into an attic may be
completely lost in the noise of an
air-raid. Hence the virtue of the
light-ray detector.
This, although the firm’s latest use
for light-ray apparatus, is only one
of the many applications which are in
operation. For example, this auto
matic light-ray counts articles of var
ious sizes and shapes, up to 600 a
minute, passing on a conveyor, stops
wire being wound on a spool when
the required length has been obtain
ed, indicates variations in turbidity
arising in “water hardness” treat
ment, guards sleep walkers from
harm and precious jewels from theft.
MORE THAN 7,000,000
“EDGE TOOLS”
Britain’s edge tool industry has or
ganized its own Export Group to
send overseas this year more than
7,000,000 "pieces,” nearly all of
them agricultural implements. These
are, for the most part, plantation
hoes, forks, picks, spades, shovels,
scythes and hatchets, used in the pro
duction of sugar, tea, coffee, rice,
maize, cocoa, cotton, rubber, palm
oil, soya beans, oranges and bananas.
About two thirds of them will go
to the Empire including Australia,
New Zealand, India, Ceylon, Burma,
Cyprus, Malaya, North Borneo and
the Mandat* of Palestine. The others
will be exported to Greecd, China, In-
do-China, the Netherlands East In
dies and the Philippine Islands.
The plant Is now at work for the
greater part in the English Midlands,
on this considerable output. It has an
important bearing on Britain's food
supply which might suffer from lack
of tools for agriculture; indeed, after
30 months of the last war the dearth
of tools in Nyasaland became so
acute that the Government made an
order that their manufacture should
take precedence over war work al
ready in hand.
Excessive Speed Blamed
For Fatal Car Accident
Dr. H. G. Furlong, coroner, pre
sided over an inquest here Friday
night, into the death of Private Her
bert James Turner, of the Royal Can
adian Regiment, London, who died
in Alexandra Hospital here on Wed
nesday evening, July 17th.
The jury, after hearing the evi
dence, brought in a verdict to the
effect that excessive steed was the
cause of the accident
Turner was the driyer of a car
THERE’S a tremendous thrill In
taking pictures of genuine fast
action—racing automobiles, motor
cycles, speedboats, horses, athletic
events and sports. Indeed, many
enthusiastic amateurs find that this
Is the most zestful aspect of theircamera hobby.
To picture real action, you need
a camera with a speedy shutter,
and a correspondingly fast lens.
With modern high speed films, the
fast lens is not as necessary as it
used to be—but a fast shutter, with
speeds of 1/300; 1/400, or 1/500 second, will always be a necessity If
you specialize in this type of pic
ture taking.
> On the other hand, if you just
take action jthota now and then,and don't, have a camera with an
extremely high-speed shutter, there
are certain tricks you can use . . .
and these will often help you getsharp action pictures, even though
you are handicapped by a aloftshutter.
For example, look at the pictureabove. The action is almost "broad
side” to the camera, or at a right
angle to it. Naturally, from thisangle, the motion is greatest, and a
containing three other men, which
after passing another vehicle on No.
2 highway, near Thamesford, got out
of control, following straight through
a curve in the road into the ditch on
Monday night. Turner was uncon
scious from the time he arrived at
the hospital until his death. The
jury was composed of N. IL Ofield,
foreman; W. S. Ashman, John E.
Borland, Harry Crane and Joseph
W. Churchouse.
Driver of ramshackle old car—-
“can you tell me the quickest way to
Eleventh Avenue, my boy?”
Boy, after looking the car over:
“Sure, take a street car.”
^SNAPSHOT GUILD
SHOOTING REAL ACTION
From this angle, motion I* rapid and shutter speed must be high—but aelower shutter speed can be used if you shoot from a greater distance
with the subject moving almost directly toward you.
shutter speed of at least 1/500 sec
ond la needed. But it you stood
quite near the track, farther up,so that the horse was coming al
most directly toward you. the mo
tion would appear leas rapid. From
that angle, a shutter speed of 1/200
would yield a reasonably sharp picture, if you caught the horse at the
peak of the jump.
^Remember that rule: when the
action la coming toward you, motion is less, and a slower shutter
will serve. By proper choice of posi
tion, therefore, you can overcome
your handicap in many cases, and
improve your percentage of successful pictures.
Here is another hint In many
games and sports, there are momen
tary pauses. A player will halt toturn—yet still retain a good action
pose for a split second. In these
pauses, if you’re alert, you can cap
ture many a fine action shot.
So even it you have a slow camera, don’t be discouraged. A model
with fast shutter is best, but that
will come In time . . . and mean
while, If you're alert and seize youropportunities, you can garner plen
ty of worth-while action pictures.

Wi walked towards the sunset andhaving reached the little promotoryat the edge of the ravine, we hung
suspended, as it were, between the
blue lake and serene blue sky, a
vantage point from which to watch
the ever-changing panorama of the
westerning sun. Why, we wonder, do
not more of us share in the enjoy
ment of that exquisite experience?
No sunset costs a sou and yet men
of wealth gladly expend thousands
to secure a work of art that vainly
tries to depict a moment in the pag
eant. After all the most experien
ced painter, the most famous artist,
can do only that and it may be that
he too, is entirely dissatisfied with
the result he achieves, when he
measures it against the reality. Is
not the most beautiful picture of a
sunset ever painted, but one man’s
idea of one phase of one sunset?
How can he possibly portray the
ever-changing; how tell of his enjoy
ment of the gradual, exquisitely mod
ulated transition of one color into
another; how tell of his feeling of
| awe, as he watches the golden glow
of the departing sun reflected on
and held captive by the tiny cirrus
clouds above his head, there gathered
to bid hint adieu; how describe the
gentle merging of gold into rose and
rose into mauve; how, by any known
medium, show the delicate grada
tions, by which that vague something
we call the sky becomes an almost
palpable material of blue-green
transluscense, that makes of it the
poet’s "bowl of night,” a bowl of
rarest beauty, on which the artist
paints a golden crescent and bejew
elled stars, the further to enhance
it; how make plain to his fellow-man
the thought that all this was created
and arranged for his infinite enjoy
ment; how make him feel akin to
the Creator of it all?”
These and kindred thoughts fleetefl
through our minds as we watched.
We said little, what is there to say,
what words of simple man can ex
press beauty as man is able to see
it if he will? Why are we so blind?
Why are we so rushed that we can-
ndt find time once in a while to give
up the hour or so necessary to really
rec a sunset? One cannot hurry it as
do the “movies” of the same thing;
we miss there the deliberately, long
drawn out sweetness of the phenom
enons; we see flashes of beauty which,
in spite of man’s cleverness with the
camera and much as he has added to
the verity of photographic art by his
discovery of the color lens, are still
but a poor imitation of the Creator’s
art
Keep it in mind, determine that the
next time that Nature decides to
stage an especially gorgeous trans
formation scene, you’ll be one of the
audience. You'll miss a "movie” per
haps but you’ll certainly gain a more
worthwhile entertainment.
“Gosh,” said the speeder as he
slowed down for the first time in 40
miles and looked at the wonderful
view, “don’t you feel glad you’re
alive?”
"Glad isn’t the word,” said his
passenger. “I'm amazed.”

Bordeaux mixture, although prim
arily a fungicide is also used as a
control for many species of flea
beetles and some leaf hoppers. It is
practically always used as the banc
liquid when spraying for the Color
ado potato beetle since it is «the
standard remedy for many import
ant potato diseases. It is made by
mixing copper sulphate (bluestone),
hydrated lime and water together in
the following proportions: copper sul
phate (finely ground) four ponfids;
hydrated lime, six pounds, and water,
40 gallons.
The method is simplified greatly if
finely ground copper sulphate and hy-
drated lime are used. After the
spray tank has been filled with
water, the engine is started and the
correct amount of finely ground cop
per sulphate gradually added. With
the agitator running, the fine powder
will be thoroughly '"dissolved in 5
minutes. In the meantime the hy-
dsated lime is placed in a large pail
and slowly stirred with a stick while
sufficient water is added to fill the
container. After thoroughly mixing,
the liquid is then added gradually to
the now dissolved copper sulphate in
the spray tank, while the engine and
agitator continue to run. This pro
ceeding is repeated 2 or 3 times until
Wil the hydrated lime with the excep
tion of the insoluble foreign matter
in the bottom of the pail, has been
carried over into the spray machine.
Two pounds of calcium arsenate
are added, when the mixture is ready
to apply. Where small hand sprayers
are used ,thc method of preparing
Bordeau mixture is exactly fhejsame
-except that the agitation of the liq
uid in the sprayer will have to be
done by means of a flat stick in the
absence of an engine and mechanical
agitator.

- The inspector was paying his
monthly visit to the village school.
He examined the children in reading
and general knowledge, and was very
pleased with the answers he received.
After the last question had been ask
ed and answered satisfactorily he
rose to his feet and looking at the
upturned faces, remarked genially:
“I wish I were a little boy at school
agafa‘1”
He allowed a few minutes for this
to sink in and then added: “Do you
know why I wish that?”
For a moment or two there was
silence. Then came a childish voice
from the back of the room: “Cos
you’ve forgot all you ever knowed."
At .a party the husband of one of
the guests arrived very late. “I have
only come to take my wife home,”
he explained.
"Oh, my dear Mr. Blank,” said the
hostess, “why didn’t you come
sooner?”
