THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 7th, 1940 Important Changes in National Registration Regulations Important changes in the National Registration Regulations have been announced. The regulations require all persons to carry a registration certificate. The Dominion Statistician has already been notified by at least twenty-five thousand people of the loss •f their certificates and they are asking for the issue of new ones. The regulations require perrons who are married to notify the Dominion Statistician of the change of marital status. The regulations al«-o require persons to notify the Dominion Statistician of change of Post Office address. This has heretofore been done by correspondence between the individual concerned and the Dominion Statistician. To restrict the consequently heavy burden of correspondence. 1. Any person hereafter losing his or her regis­ tration certificate shall go to the nearest Post Office, complete the forms to be found there and mail them to the Dominion Statistician, when a new registration certificate will be issued immediately. 2. In case of marriage, the parties concerned will hereafter go to the most convenient Post Office complete the form to be found thereat. The wife will surrender her registration certificate, issued in her maiden name, and the Postmaster will issue her a new certificate in her married name. 3. In connection with changes of Post Office ad­ dress, persons requiring to give notice under the regulations will hereafter go to the most convenient Post Office, secure a printed card, write the necessary information thereon, and mail the same to the Dominion Statistician. There is apparently some confusion in the public mind about the requirements consequent upon the change of Post Office address. The regulations re­ quire that notice of change of Port Office address ba given. This does not mean that in every case, when a person changes his residence in the same commun­ ity, that notice must be given. No notice is necessary of change of residence in any community where there is no house-to-house mail delivery because the Post Office address of an individual in such communities remains the same regardless of the place of resi­ dence in the community. In those communities, how­ ever, where they have a regular house-to-house mail delivery then the Post Office address is the street address, and, in these communities, notice of change of address must be given. In any case where notice must be given, a person should attend at the nearest Post Office, and complete the card to be secured there. It is stressed in connection with change of address that it is not necessary to make any change on theregistration certificate carried by the individual. The change of address is recorded on the registration card in the possession of the Dominion Statistician. Pialaa af AknkmNow the Greets embattled against aggression, joinonce more the mainstream of freedom's story Spartamarche*. CeriMh, and all the inlands, marching forfreedom.Athens waits tor the roar of the upstart power;waits in the sunshine, pallid with ancient beauty, lifting again to the sky its massive challenge, pillar by pilar. 1’his that once was Greece remains as its glory: not the ncr the bow with ite many arrows, not the will to destroy, but the aspiration to be found worthy. Is it strange to picture the gun emplacements, and the metal fingers that comb the heavens, seeking out the destroyer in robot vultures, over fair Athens? Grim and black are the columns of iron barrels, grim and black by the whiteness of marble columns, grim and hard by the softness of sun-drenched temples, alien iron. Yet with these inexorable pens of history, now all Hellas, once so by war divided, joins not only ite ancient self together, against the divider. But once more comes into the front of free men, comes toward union with nations that learned from Hellas freedom, order, restraint, and that these could outlast even their symbols— Learned from Greece whose glory was in its ruins, that the substance is strong though ite stone may crumble, and now to Greece bold out their hands in alliance old as men's dignity—Selected.

HIS GOLDEISH ASSISTANT CANADIAN LEGION WAR SERVICES How British Scientist Ha* Made Potatoe Parasite* Visible Beds Are of Recent Vintage It has been estimated that the average normal per­ son spends from one-third to one-half of his entire life sleeping. What a woeful waste of time. Sleep, like many another biological process, is said to be merely a habit. It has been developing over a period of millions of years of evolution, until now we can't seem to do without it Sir Robert Borden once said to a newspaper correspondent that he only required four hours of sleep a day, during the earlier, hardest working days* of his career. Doctors tell us we should sleep eight hours. The custom of sleeping is an ancient as time, yet beds as we know them, are of comparatively recent vintage. Originally, a bed consisted of merely a hol­ lowed out place in the earth. With the development of civilization came the inevitable desire for greater comfort. Egyptians were probably the first to sleep in elevated bedsteads. They even had mattresses made from dried rushes sewn into cloth coverings. The Romans copied their bed styles from the Greeks who had open couches, with mattresses of feathers or wool. In turn the Romans introduced the first real beds into England. . / So, in step with the slow progress of mankind have come improvements in rleerfing accommodations, and the simple article of fumitiwe we all know of as a bed has emerged. Today the manufacture of beds and mattresses comprises one of Canada's majqr in­ dustries. In 1938 over four and one-half million dol­ lars' worth of bedroom furniture was manufactured. By far the largest output was from Ontario and Que­ bec, with British Columbia next in order, and the three Prairie Provinces trailing. Stanley R. Moon, Charles Christie, Lome McDoug­ all and C. 0.

B. Priestley has written the script for, and the commentary -on the motion picture which the Director of Public Information and the National Film Board are releasing for theatrical distribution in the “Can-- ada Carries On” series this month. The picture, is called “Britain At Bay” and por­ trays dramatically but truthfully the position of the British Isles as a citadel whose people are determined that it shall not share the fate of Continental Europe. This picture has been secured from England and it replaces one which the Director of Public Informa­ tion and the National Film Board had planned to deal with the wacuntion of children from the United Kingdom to Canada, and thrir reception here. How­ ever, all Of tne material which had been made in England on this subject, together with the product­ ion unit which had photographed the English material and was to complete the subject in Canada, were lost in the sinking of the "City of Benares." / . A quiet but pretty wedding was solemnized at the home of Mr. and Mrs. George Naylor, Oxford street, on Wednesday afternoon at five o’clock, when Mrs. Marguerite Jenkinson became the wife of E. L.

O., M.C., general manager of the Canadian Legion War Services, will leave for England at an early date to inspect C.L.W.S. activities among Canadian forces overseas. Col. Macintyre, who will be gone about two months, will visit the Le­ gion’s London office and moke a tour of the districts to wheih the or­ ganization’s 10 oversees supervisors are assigned. It is expected that he will confer with military authorities relative to the welfare needs of the men and the immediate resumption of the Legion’s education program. The education scheme was tempor­ arily suspended during the threat­ ened German invasion of England and* the Legion’s main activities at that time were the provision of en­ tertainment, recreation and various forms of comforts. The possibility of a long period of emparative inactiv­ ity for the land forces in the Old Country during the winter months has prompted the authorities to urge a continuance of education work in order to help maintain the morale and fighting spirit of the men as well as to improve their military effic­ iency. Col. Macintyre will be accompanied bjr Dr. A. E. Chatwin, of Saskatoon, Sask., administrative officer at Ot­ tawa of the Legion’s education div­ ision, who is being sent to England to act os overseas director of educa­ tion for the C.A.SJ*. Earl of Athlone Becomes Regular Member of Legion A veteran of two wars who record­ ed on his application form that he is a married man and that his occupa­ tion is Governor-General of Canada, has become a regular member of the Ottawa branch of the Canadian Le­ gion. ’ It was an ordinary form which the Earl of Athlone filled out, and each question was answered in His Ex­ cellency’s own handwriting. It gave the information that he was born in London, England, that he has been a member of the Windsor branch of the British Legion since ite inception in 1920, that he started his army career as a subaltern in the 7th Hus­ sars and that he served in both the South African War and the first Great War, The fact that His Excellency is already grand president of the Can­ adian Legion apparently was not suf­ ficient for this distinguished soldier, who for many years has taken an active interest in the welfare of ex- sc-iVfec men. His membership in the Ottawa branch now brings him into closer contact with his old com­ rades-in-arms and gives him a more intimate interest in legion affairs. With scarcely a sound the luxur­ ious car pulled up before the seaside hotel and an old grey-haired man de­scended. “My doctor advises me to stay where the south wind blows contin­ ually,” he remarked to the man­ ager. “Does it blow here?" “It does, sir,” returned the other. "You are very fortunate, to have stopped at exactly the right place. The south wind ahvayp blows here.” The-old man stuck a moistened finger in the air. “Always?” ho repeated. “Ate- you sure? It appears to be coming from the north just now.” “You're right, sir. It’s on ite way back I” Chief Plant Pathologist F. C. Bawden, of Rothamsted Experimen­ tal Station, England, has achieved a scientific triumph. His collaborator was a goldfish. Studying crinkles and leaf-roll, deadly potato diseases, this investi­ gator secured evidence that they are caused by plant parasites so small that no miscroscope will re­ veal them. Mr. Bawden decided to secure vis­ ibility by mass. He incubated the organism (viruses) in liquid . until there were billions of them. He then held this vessel before a special light. It revealed nothing.' The billions of plant death-dealers remained invisible. Perhaps they would be visible if all pointed in the same direction, like logs on a river? Mr. Bawden decided to experi­ ment He was faced with the prob­ lem of creating within the glass ves­ sel containing the viruses riverlike streams of moving water. Deciding that the fast-moving goldfish might solve this problem, he placed one in the jar. At once the invisible hosts of death became vis­ ible. For the first time man was able to look upon and study the cause of the two worst potato diseases in the world. The flick of the fish’s tail did :the trick.

The endurance of the machines, which are at work in all the coal­ fields of the world, can be gauged by the fact that one such machine has for a whole year been cutting 320 yards of coal in every working day of six and a half hours. An­ other, after cutting 18,000 tons in a scam three feet six incoes high, was brought out for overhaul. It was sent back .into the pit without the need for a penny’s outlay on re­ placement costa. LIQUEURS FROM ENGLAND Plan To Supply £260,000 of U.S.A. Import* War has deprived American con­ sumers of gin and liquetm of their £250,000 per annum requirements. Gin, former export of Holland, and Benedictine, Chartreuse, and. other famous liqueurs, former export of France, are not now obtainable. British distillers, taking advan­ tage of this fact, are considering the problems of distillation of both gin and liqueurs, with the object of offering British-made gins and liq­ ueurs. of the quality of certain of the famous Continental brands. The situation offers a new devel­ opment in the migration of distill­ ing under stress of war, or political upheaval. When France expelled the relig­ ious Houses, the monks of the Ben­ edictine order took their famous liq­ ueur to Spain, and when the present war broke out two Benedictines, French and Spanish, were on the market Soon Great Britain may be offering a third. Already one famous English mon­ astery, Buchfart in Devon, the Abbey built solely by the monks of the Order, is doing a large business in the making of a tonic wine. With existing stocks of gin in the Dutch East Indies nearly exhausted, the immobilisation of French sup­ plies, and the temporary cessation of Spanish manufacture owing to the Spanish Civil War, British enter­ prise has n good field. Shortly, .cocktails drunk, in New York, Boston and San Francisco may owe most of their ingredients to British enterprise. general financing of farm BANK OF MONTREAL "A BANK WHERE SMALL ACCOUNTS ABE WELCOME" Ingersoll Branch: A.

We reckon in astronomical terms. It is comparatively easy to make a few thousand shells, or rifles, or even planes. But we cannot sudden­ ly produce a billion and a half dol­ lars worth of munitions ih a country whose total production of manufac­ tured goods amounts to little more than 3 billions annually, without changing the entire patterns of peace­ time commerce and industry. To produce these goods and dove­ tail the programme into ordinary channels of trade is a job for the nation's ablest executive manpower. Unless it is done with extraordinary efficiency, and skill, overwhelming grief and catastrophe may result.

BUDGET TERMS. Most of the men appointed to these jobs are trained, experienced business men gathered from all parts of Can­ ada and from every kind of business. As a rule they are given one job to do. Their ability to do it well is hampered by lack of control in the direction of the programme as a whole. They have little chance or oppor­ tunity to know what is being done by someone else. Only occasionally does a clash of priorities or schedules bring them out of their “cells” to learn what is going on in other cells down the hall. One man negotiates a contract. Another signs it. One man orders something. He may lack authority or facilities to ensure that the goods are .delivered. At present Mr. Howe is the only man with authority to co-ordinate this programme. He is the only man with an opportunity to see the pic­ ture as a whole. But can Mr. Howe use that opportunity? The answer is: “No.” No minister can disassociate him­ self jrom his political connection. He must not only report to the Cab­ inet and satisfy the Prime Minister and other ministers as to line of pol­ icy he is pursuing, he must also fight patronage seekers. He must maintain “good will” for the Government. This dual role of parliamentarian and munitions “boss” is not consist­ ent. It is an impossible role to fill. Mr. Howe cannot attend his cab­ inet an parliamentary duties, can­ not direct the C.B.C., the T.C.A., civ­ il aviation, meteorologic and radio services, and his other peacetime jobs, and at the same time person­ ally co-ordinate the blueing-and ful­ fillment of 50,000 individual con­ tracts involving the equivalent of half the entire industrial capacity of the country. Under Mr. Howe should be placed a man with complete authority over the letting of all contracts and the control of production schedules. He would be judged solely by his ability to get results. His title is not very important His job is supremely important. It is a basic, business job—an execu­ tive job—of industrial management and control. Were a business executive- of proved ability to be appointed for this job, Mr. Howe could clear away at once, the handicaps which must embarass him as a politician and Cabinet minister. The job to be done is one which any industrial general manager must do—-co-ordinate the flow of labor, materials, and product ao as to en­ sure speed, efficiency and economy. He must be shrewd and, competent in averting bottlenecks and in util­ izing to best advantage the na­ tion's available industrial plant. He must be able to view the procure­ ment programme as a whole and have authority to co-ordinate its in­ dividual parts. Above all this chairman or "boas” must have the right to choose his own assistants. He must have a free hand in giving responsibility- only to those who are competent officials. This is true of any business, large or small. It is of the'greatest import­ ance in a programme as big and as vital as munitions and supply.

So far the work of those respon­ sible for Canada’s munitions pro­ gramme has been chiefly that of play­ ing Santa Claus to Canadian in­ dustry. The -emphasis has been on con­ tracts, orders, “Make me a million of that.” “Build a plant to do this.” Yet production schedules are puny now, compared with what will be re­ quired, when these tens of thousands of contracts come to be honored. I’ll spring it on you. My mother and father had a child, and it wasn’t my brother and it wasn’t my sister. Who was it? Give up? Give up?” “Yes, I give up.” “Ha! Ha! It was the bally old hotel clerk in Sheffield. 529 Dundas St, Woodstock. Such an appointment would lift a heavy and impossible burden from Mr. Howe’s shoulders. It would be applying commonsense business prin­ ciples to a job, which is essentially a business undertaking. The job requires no "superman.” It does require; one who can com­ mand the respect and loyalty of his associate* and those -whom he will choose to work for him. This is n simple but essential fact that must be faced on Canada’s A Londoner visiting Sheffield be­ came friendly with the clerks in his hotel, and the two frequently regaled each other with pokes and riddles. One day the clerk called the Lon­ doner over and said: “Here’s a good riddle for you. My mother and father 'had a child, but it wasn’t my brother affd it wasn’t my sister. Who was it?” “I don’t know. Who was it?” "It was me.” The Londoner was much amused, and upon his return to town he tried the joke on one of his friends. “Look here,” he said, “I heard a Get Your Winter Car Needs HereHEATERS - NEW .nd l/5ED • Fog Lights • Switches • Celluloid Super Pyro Anti-Freeze PIONEER ' St. 6-11.30 W O O D S T O C K CAPITOL Higheat Price.Iron, Steel, Pa ■■■ MON., TU JOEL McCREA - S1LV The Original “DEAD END” Th. picture with • wallop a. roaring drama bunt* from city .nwet..

The Manitoba potato crop wa» somewhat disappointing, but in Saskatchewan and Alberta improvement in yields is reported. The British Columbia Xpotato crop was also somewhat bet­ ter than in 1939. The first estimate figures are as follows: Canada, 40,859,000 cwt. from 545.000 acres, compared with 36,390,000 cwt., from 517,700 acres in 1939; yields per acre, 75 cwt in 1940; 70 cwt per acre in 1939.

Big Increase InHog Marketings Never before has the Canadian hog industry witnessed such a tremen­ dous expansion in the space of one year as it has in 1940. This is amply illustrated by figures compiled by the Marketing Service, Dominion De­ partment of Agriculture. Deliveries to public stock ■ yards and direct to packing plants in the Dominion during the first forty-two weeks of 1940 amounted to 8,792,- 000 hogs, an increase of no less than 45 per cent over the corresponding period of 1939. As a matter of fact, marketings for the forty-two weeks , referred to very closely approach the figure* for the whole of the calendar year of 1937, a year when Canadian hog raisers created an all time pro­ duction record.

HOG CHOLERA A MEMACE! Active Co-operation of every Ontario Farmer is Necessary to STAMP IT OUT ONTABIO has a really serious outbreak of Hog Cholera. This deadly infectious disease of swine has reached alarming proportions in the counties of Essex and Kent, with smaller outbreaks in Lambtou, Elgin, Norfolk and Haldimand. If tho disease is r.ot controlled it is certain to spread to neighbouring counties. Every precaution must be taken. The Ontario Department of Agriculture is actively co­ operating with the Federal Department of Agriculture and farmers in their efforts to stamp out this disease. If the spread of Hog Cholera is not checked NOW, every pig .reiser in Ontario stands to lose. Only the immediate and wholehearted co-operatiOn of every Ontario farmer will stamp out this menace to the hog industry. HOW TO PREVENT HOCZ'CHOLERA The Departments of Agriculture strongly recommend every pig raiser to take the following precautions: JT J Coufino all hogi to pena or yarda that havn antering tho pen can dbdafoct his shoes, AND " bocn thoroughly cleaned and disinfected . ■ INSIST ON ITS USE. with an approved distnfectant ' Kcop livestock trucks off your farm—if you to In centres of heavy infection.

Among these is wool. The production of army uniforms , socks, greatcoats, blankets and other items for the fighting forces necessitating the use of large quantities of wool and wool­ len goods has given a decided im­ petus to the sheep industry. Not only have sheep raises been receiving a fair demand for wodl, but lamb and mutton from their flocks has been selling at good prices compared with values ruling in the Autumn periods of recent years prior to the outbreak of the war. The interest in the sheep industry and the confidence shared by those engaged in lamb feeding was exem­ plified at the feeder shows and sales recently held at Moose Jaw and Sas­ katoon.

In the AUTOMOTIVE WORLD The Speedometer The theory that a speedometer from a wrecked car records the speed at which the car had been travelling at the time of an accident has been presented frequently in court. Such a theory, however, does not appear to be true in the light of opinions recently expressed by com­ petent authorities. For instance, it is the considered opinion of C. E. McTavish, Director of Parts and Service, General Motors Products of Canada, Limited, that very seldom would the speedometer from a wrecked automobile record the speed at which the car had been travelling. Mr. McTavish points out that if a person takes a speedometer: in his hand and turns his wrist quickly, the speed dial may register as high as 100 miles an hour. On the other hand, he explained, the speedometer on a car which had been travelling at 50 miles an hour might .gister practically nothing, if the car were struck on one side and the dial were swung in the other direct- tion due to the blow. "It would be practically impossible for the speedometer to register the speed at which the car travelled prior to the accident,” declared Mr. McTavish, “unless the indicating hand locked immediately before the impact—a very rare possibility. before to have the oil changed in ac­ cordance with the recommendations of automobile manufacturers. Modem oils, it is pointed out, have been highly developed to improve their load-carrying qualities. Various compounds having been added to the originial stock. As a result the oil may become loaded with varnish and gums under certain operating condi­ tions. To increase the safety margin be­ tween changes, the use of an oil filter is strongly recommended by AC engineers, who explain how a fil­ ter keeps the oil clean and thus min­ imizes wear on bearings and other moving parts. If a filter is not used, dirt and foreign matter causes parts to wear, and oil lines and channels to clog. While they emphasize the safety margin assured by a filter, these engineers also remind car' owners that they should still observe the advice of automobile manufac­ turers in connection with the chang­ ing of oil periodically. New Type of Steering Gear A thread formed by a continuous stream of balls is used in the steer­ ing gear featured on the new 1941 McLaughlin-Buick cars. Acclaimed as a major improve­ ment over former types, this new steering gear is designed to, reduce driver fatigue and assure greater ease in handling and manoeuvering the car. Since the load is spread over a large number of balls, unit loading is slow, which mgans less frequent adjustments. Mileage be­ tween adjustments, Mr. Johnson states, will be at least three times as great as with other types of gears. Field Marshal Sir Philip Chetwode, chairman of the British Red Cross, has written the Canadian Red Cross expressing gratitude for the gift of 130 ambulances and also for the agreement to supply 16,000 parcels of food from Canada every week for British prisoners of war in Germany. The British Red Croes is the volun­ tary auxiliary of the British Govern­ ment and is committed to the task of supplying food and clothing to pris­ oners of war in enemy territory. “The ambulances are a highly valued gift, made at a moment when our organization was hard-pressed to know how to obtain a-sufficient number of ambulances to prepare to meet the need,” Sir Philip wrote, “I am glad to have this opportunity of re-iterating the gratitude of the British Red Cross for the generous and ungrudging help given to us at all times by the Canadian Red Cross in so many directions, and particu­ larly for their latest gesture in un­ dertaking the packing, despatch and financial responsibility for 10,000 parcels per week for our Prisoners of War. “I hope you will be able to find means of letting the public in Canada know how immensely this assistance is appreciated in this country and how deeply grateful we are for the unfailing support given us on every occasion." The ambulances were contributed to the Canadian Red Cross for Britain by individuals, bus­ iness firms, service clubs and other organizations throughout Canada. “Can I see Mrs. Dobson?" asked the charity collector. “I’m sorry,” replied the maid, “but Mrs. Dobson can’t see you now.

Realizing this situation, parry discontinued the heating equipment months wejriow ask our customers an who are selling gas heating ment to help us conserve the of natural gas that is so essential at this time.

Improvements in de­ sign and engineering have caused the life curve of the automobile to rise rapidly, while the used car price curve has droppend sharply. Records show that the man who buys a new *car for style and ad­ vanced features usually turns it in every two or three years, although the car may be good for eight years of transportation. This is an import­ ant factor from the standpoint of the used car buyer. And because the average modern:. lllcvv- car serves its first owner for two I Oliver, years and its second from six to We are pies „ . ___ eight years, the man who buys a Mrs-Arthur folivfir who haa been on comparatively up-to-date used 's~* *" gets about four times as much his money as the first owner.

While a majority of drivers are courteous enough to dim their headlights when approaching another car, the illmannered driver speeds pailt, disregarding the dis­ comfort and danger he may be cau­ sing others. However, just as an effective de­ fense is discovered to counteract any attack in warfare, car drivers can afford themselves some measure of protection against glaring headlights. The method is really, quite simple. When a car with dazzling lights ap­ proaches, shut one eye, then open it again when the car has passed. The eye which was closed will be found to be as sensitive and “un-dazzled" as before. This idea was discovered recently in Britain’s blackout the sick listlfoproving.
