Both games were of real cham­ pionship calibre. Beachvillc led Cayuga in the first period 4-1, but the Cayugans came back to edge their rivals out in the third period. Beachvillc got a break in being awarded a goal when Young, the Cayuga goalie threw his stick to divert a puck after he had been caught out of goal. That did not deter Cayuga who came back with a, rush to win the championship. Gee scored three goals for Cay­ uga, May, speedy contrcman got two. Vale scored two for the losers. In the Intermediate game, Kin­ tore, a club from west of Woodstock and Humber Summit, a team from near Toronto, gave a fighting dis­ play. The count was 1-1 in the first period and there was no score in the second. With ten minutes gone in the third period, Pelton netted for Kintore. The resultant play was terrific as the Summits tried hard for the equalizer. Macdonald in the nets for Kintore, played a sen­ sational game, while Evans on de­ fence for Humber-Summit, was a standout for his team.

What demands are likely to bo, experienced and how can they be met? Obviously answers to all the questions that might be raised cannot be given, but at least what is required in the production of the principal Canadian farm products is made clear in ‘‘Canadian Agriculture and the War," a review of progress made in 1941 and of Government pol­ icies, with a peep into the future. This booklet is available free by writing to Publicity and Extension Division, Dominion Department of Agriculture, Ot­ tawa. The review also indicates that there is oppor­ tunity for the profitable production of these pro­ ducts. but as to what should be produced on an in­ dividual farm must be decided by the fanner him­ self. Live-stock producers who represent the largest in­ terest in Canadian Agriculture, cun make their pre­ parations for 1942 in confidence that all they can produce in animals and animal products will be needed and that the level of present prices will be maintained. Six hundred million pobnds of bacon and other pork products for export and three hun­ dred million pounds for domestic consumption are required in the third year of the war. Under trade agreement and quota arrangements with the United States, an outlet is available for all the surplus beef cattle that are now in sight, A ready market for all the lamb that can be produced and an increasing demand for Canadian wool are indicated. In dairy production, the focal point is cheese. The 1942 contract for export is still to be settled, but it is expected that Canada will be able to export a larger quantity than in 1941 and at higher prices. The dairy situation calls for more dairy cattle and for increased production, The poultry producer is afforded an unprecedented export outlet for eggs and a continuing increased domestic demand is to be expected with virtually secured prices that should be satisfactory for quality products efficiently produced. To fortify this live-stock position, increased pro­ duction of feed supplies in both Eastern and Western Canada is necessary. Higher yields of farm crops and larger acreage of coarse grains should be the objective. Wheat acreage will have to be adjusted in accordance with market outlet for 1942 and to meet feed requirements. Agricultural policy will encour­ age this development. Will Benefit Home Merchants Recently an executive of one of the larger chain stores, speaking before a convention said that it h expected that the super-markets which have drawn trade from a wide district will be at a disadvantage in the near future as trading will more and more tend to go to the neighborhood stores rather than to those at a distance. Economists appear to be agreed that present and future restrictions and rationing will be of benefit to the local merchant who in recent years has been losing considerable business to the large centres. W’ith gasoline and tires difficult to obtain it looks as if there will be more trading done at the local stores and an upswing in business in the rural com­ munities. Home merchants may well ponder oyer this phase of lheir future marketing and be prepared to render the best possible service when that time comes. More attention perhaps ought to be given to their stocks, A little more thoughtful planning of adver­ tising is bound to be a gnat help. Without this necessary helper the public may not know where they can obtain the goods they have been accustom­ ed to buy abroad. .w Shipping A Factor Affecting Exports There are many factors that have a direct bearing on the export movements of Canada's Agricultural products. As the war sones continue to spread in ever-widening circles, shipping is more and more assuming the position of the controlling factor on shaping foreign trade in these products . Losses of ocean tonnage as a result of enemy action, coupled with the needs for transport of food, troops, and war material dver a wide area, have severely taxed shipping facilities. In many cases, the shortest and most direct trade routes cannot be used without ex­ treme hazard. Longer hauls necessitate care in the allotment of valuable cargo space, and commodities which are hard to handle are placed low in the scale of priorities.—Current Review of Agricultural Con- ditions in Canada, Commenting on the fact tbit many Canadian mun­ icipalities have reduced their tax rates thia year, The Financial Post commends them on paring down expenditures. Every dollar they ean save the tax­ payer, The Port notes, is a dollar gained for the war effort. ‘‘This sort of thing," the Toronto paper adds, “is in sharp and favorable contrast to the record of the First Great War. It indicates that many muni­ cipal authorities fully realize the importance of their responsibility and the vital necessity of conserving all our energies for the supreme purpose of prosecu­ ting the war."

Although factoriesdo not shut down merely on gettingthe “alert,’’ they have to do so whenthe Yoof spotters signal that theraiders are overhead.But ipstead of the boilers blowingoff their steam into the air whenwork stops, the steam is generated into the accumulators and stored, to be used to start up the plant again when the raiders have passed. More than a thousand of these accumulators have now been in­ stalled in iron and steel works, su­ gar refineries, breweries, dairies, dyeworks and laundries. All act on the same principle—the storage of energy during off-peakload periods, and the calling into action of this steam when production requires it. In one sugar refinery the instal­ lation of a steam accumulator raised production by 12 per cent and low­ ered coal consumption by about ,7 per cent. In a dairy the time taken to produce condensed milk was re­ duced by 20 to 25 per cent while in a brewery 16 per cent, of the coal was saved. Output in a laundry was increased by 10 per cent after in­ stalling an accumulator and the boiler efficiency of a dye-works was improved from 66 to 74 per cent. Britain has the largest steam ac­ cumulators in the world, their steel shells being 14 ft 9 ins. in diameter by 82 ft long and weighing approx­ imately 500 tons. BOMBS WITH WINGS A device by which aerial torped­ oes, bombs and shells tan steer themselves to their target under their own power has been patented in Britain. This self-propelling projectile is really a tiny pilotless aircraft, complete with engine, air­ screw, gyrostatic controls and so on. It also has a releasing device so that it may shed its wings at an ap­ propriate point and so drop directly on the^target, Launched by a catapult, this arrangement not only obyjatcs transport of hea\*f artillery and repairs to rifling, but gives a much greater range than that of artillery. When the impulse of the catapult launching is spent, the projectile flies under its own power, maintain­ ing direction, height and balance by the gyrostatic pilot, operated cither by the exhaust of the engine or by compressed air. Normally designed for about double the range of long range ar­ tillery and for use in very large numbers, 40 lb. units can be made at a cost of under £25 each, which, when all the maintenance and trans­ port costs are compared, is cheaperthan firing an artillery shell. But there is no reason why much heavier projectiles of higher precis- ion and power, capable of hitting a city 100 to- 500 miles away, could not be evolved from this beginning.

An individual attempting toget satisfaction from the living ofhis or her life, not at the expense ofsomeone else and not by. trying to escape from life. I 2. An individual reasonably effi­ cient at his work. 3. One who gets along with his friends. 4. He does not go to pieces in time of stress. Mental health, like physical health, is not necessarily a perman­ ent condition. It must be safe­ guarded. Dr. Stevenson offers his four rules for that purpose. The first rule of mental health is physicial health. "The sound mind in the sound body is an old rule and it is quite true that if we feel well physically we are going to have a 1 zest for life.” | It is true that there are exceptions i to this rule, when a powerful men- . tality may overcome physical de­ fects, as in the case of President Franklin D. Roosevelt who recover­ ed from infantile paralysis to head a mighty nation, or Helen Kellar, blind, deaf and dumb, who strug­ gled and conquered her deficiences to become a world symbol of the victory of mind over matter. How­ ever, Dr. Stevenson states that we may safely assume that “the sicker we are physically, the more regress­ ion there will be in our mental health.” An annual medical check­ up is a wise precaution. The second rule is the mainten­ ance of emotional cotnrol. “There is a tendency for the whole personality to break down under high emotionalstress.” Dr. Stevenson would have us sub­ stitute good habits ,fed- bad. In place of worry, he recommends the relax­ ation of the body and mind. Security in self, the security of one's home and one’s associates, and security in God, are essentials for this relaxa­ tion. This rule is the acquiring of good escape mechanisms. “We must run away from our responsibilities— when we need to.”” Sleep, reading, friends, radio, motion pictures, games and hobbies are all goodmethods. Fourth rule in Dr. Stevenson’s formula for mental health is the practise of the art of sublimation. Sublimation is the acknowledgement to ourselves that there are certain goals we cannot reach and are not ethical for us to reach and the chang­ ing of those goals to goals which we can ethically reach and which have home social value.• • • Eighty percent of children in Canada suffer from physical condi­ tions and defects that are associa­ ted with malnutrition, according to Dr. J. J. Heagerty, Chief Executive Assistant in the public health div­ ision of the department of pensions and national health, writing in a recent issue of "Canadian Welfare.” He continues: “The rejections that have taken place among applicants for enlistment indicates that malnu­ trition is general among the younger generation. Medical services were shown to be inadequate and an un- i duly large percentage of the popu-| lation does not receive minimum medical attention. The low standard of health of the youth of this coun­ try, as indicated by physical de­ fects, leaves them open to commun­ icable disease*. “There are two problems that confront us at this time: the cor­ rection of physicial defect* and the general improvement of the stand­ ards of health by “adequate diet” Last June, a meeting of public health official* and representatives of the medical profession was held under auspices of the Ministry of Pensions and National Health to dis­ cuss present deficiencies in the field of public health and the adoption of measure* to raise the standard of publice health and medical service*. This meeting, Dr. Heagerty hails a* one of the most important public health conferences ever held in Can­ ada, and declare* that from it was emanating a long-term program in the prevention and control of disease that should be of particular value during war-time and the port war period. The individual housewife, too, ha* a role in solving this national problem. It become* her duty to be •are her meals are well Balanced and nutritious.

INGERSOLL K1WANIANS ATTENDED INTER-CLUB MEETING AT LONDON About thirty members of the Ing­ ersoll Kiwanis Club headed by Pre­ sident Henry I. Stewart, joined with members of the London, Galt and Sarnia Kiwanis Clubs in an In­ ter-Club meeting at the Hotel Lon­ don, on Thursday evening, March 26th, at 6.30 o’clock. The guest speaker was Arthur May of London, who recently re­ turned from Great Britain after several years there during which time he went through 500 air raids. His subject was, “Let’s Sit This One Out.” Roy J. Bailey, president of the London Kiwanis Club, presided for the Inter Club meeting and the pre­ sidents of the district Clubs, Fred G. Smith of Galt; Charles Grant of Sarnia and Henry I. Stewart of Ingersoll, were called upon to bring greetings from their clubs. Fred G. McAlister, of the Lon­ don Club, who is Vice-President of Kiwanis International, briefly ad­ dressed the gathering and the speaker was introduced by Kiwanian Tom Yuli of London. A splendid program of entertainment was pro­ vided during the evening. This was arranged by the London Club. Mr. Blay in addressing the Ki- wanians said: "We hold within ourselves the power to achieve victory.” The sooner it comes, the less blood will be shed and the less wealth will be expended. It will come sooner if you and I and all the people of Can­ ada and all the people of the United Nations shake off the greatest illus­ ion of this age, ‘I think I’ll sit this one out’.” There were lots of people in Eng­ land who wanted to “sit this one out,” but air raids changed them. “There may be a lesson there for Canadians who think they can sit it out. Maybe we are all waiting for someone else to win this war for us. “I don’t think we are going to win this war unless we deserve it and we don’t deserve it if we are going to let someone else win it for us.” The speaker suggested that per­ haps ,we believe that the United States will win it for us with its supplies and forces. “I think the people of Canada might do well to take stock of what they think. There is no room in this world for the two ways. We must have faith in our cause and then faith that we are going to win.” There are some yet who think we may sit this one out because Mac- Arthur has reached Australia and the Allies will hold there, Cripps has reached India and all will be well there, and Russia will hold.

MR. EARL NEPHEWADDRESSED Y’S MENFriday night’s meeting of theY’s Men's Chib took the form ofAgriculture Night. Jim Revell actedas chairman for the evening. Copt.Kerr of the Salvation Army, led thesing song and also rendered twovocal solos which were much appre­ciated.The speaker of the evening wasMr. Earl Nephew, manager of theOxford Farmers’ Co-operative, Woodstock. Mr. Nephew discussed Co-operative Marketing, saying that it .was the most important phase of American history today, especially to the producer. One fifth of the produce in America is marketed through this type of market. It is the basis of future prosperity as the farmer is the largest producer, borrower, buyer and investor. A co-operative is the organized sale of farm produce on a non-pro­ fit basis. Its utility lies in the fact that it combines the advantages of individual production with joint sale. The individual farmer is stand­ ing by in his failure to organize. He suffers from controlled prices from industry and operates at disadvan­ tage-selling at wholesale and pur­ chasing at retail. There is no oppos­ ition to the theory of the movement, yet it has aroused prejudice from many quarters, the farmer himself being the most critical. The co-operative idea is that each member can make a good living bpt not at the expense of someone else. Each member shares the re­ sponsibility of ownership and con­ trol and profits according to his in­ vestment. The Roshdale Co-opera­ tive was founded in England through the dire needs of the people. Its capital investment in 1937 was 675 million dollars. It paid back in one year 105 million dollars as dividends on purchases as well as setting aside a reserve. Co­ operatives are not confined to cer­ tain merchandise but include hospi­ tals, banks, state medicine and in­ surance. Mr. Nephew outlined the prin­ ciples used in a co-operative organ­ ization: one member has one vote irrespective of capital invested; there is a capital limit so that one person or persons cannot control the vote; the interest paid on money invested is at the current rate; all business is done for cash at prevailing mar­ ket prices; membership is open to every producer; co-operative educa­ tion has a place in its activity; div­ idends are paid in proportion to the amount purchased through the co­ operative; co-operative societies shall work with one another; the people shall control and direct the business world. Wheat, livestock and fruit have ] reached a high stage of co-operative development. In Canada there are 800 co-operative associations one half for marketing and the other for purchasing. Combined they have a total turnover, of 158 mil­ lion dollars. Over one half the far- mers in Canada are directly associa­ ted with co-operative associations. Mr. Nephew dealt with the coop­ eratives in Oxford saying that there were three in this county with a turnover of over half a million dol- lars. There are few buying clubs. The co-operative at Woodstock handles wood, feed, seeds, coal fertilizers, chicks, implements, eggs and poultry. It was the first to grade eggs and <blood test poultry. This organization was founded in 1916. Mr. Nephew also answered numerous questions at the close of his address. Hector Aitcheson introduced Mr. Nephew to the gathering and Max Poole expressed the gratitude of ail those present. Frank Way of the Ontario Milk Producers* Association expressed the pleasure and thanks of al] the guests present. BANNER The W. A. met at the home ofMrs. S. J.

Oxford Rifle* MobilizedAn appeal is being made to themen of Oxford County to enlist inthe Oxford, Rifles, Oxford County’sOwn Regiment, which was orderedlast week to mobilize for active ser­vice, Col. W. F.

"I hope I catch this train,” she concluded hurriedly, and handed the card to a porter, asking him to post it. When her sister got the message, it bore a neat, pencilled postscript: "She caught it.

She wore a finger-tip length tulle veil and carried an ivory prayer book from which fell a shower of gardenias, roses, carna­ tions and scysanthus. Miss Margaret Taylor, as maid of honor, wore a becoming frock of pastel blue net over taffeta, styled with a metallic bodice. Her head­ dress was of net with flower and leaf trim and she carried a sheaf of Briarcliffe roses. The two junior bridesmaids were Miss Jean Balfour, sister of the bride, and Miss Dorene Embury, who wore charming match­ ing frocks of soft blue taffeta with hate to match and carried Colonial nosegays. Mr. Russell Street was the groomsman and the ushers were Robert Auld of Niagara Falls, uncle of the bride, and Pte. Jack Parkhill, R.C.O.C., London.'

Mrs. Balfour wore a powder blue crepe dress with matching flower-trimmed hat and a corsage of Butterfly roses and Mrs. Paddon, an ensemble of dark blue georgette with matching accessories and a cor­ sage of Rapture roses.

De­Witt, his wife Fem and daughter Jeanne,her fiance Christopher Lord, Cherry'svaudeville friend Pollux, Ahearn, friendof DeWitt, Imperial*, middle-aged Latin,and Michael Collins, brawny Irishman,are Longstreet's guests. At the carbarnInspector Thumm examines them, theother passengers, the conductor, CharlesWood No. 2101, who says he has oftenseen Longstreet and DeWitt on his car.and the molorman Guineas No. 409, whocorroborates him. Thumm learns laterthat Longstreet had had an affair withMrs. Fem DeWitt: that he had a holdon his partner, frequently demandinglarge sums of money from him. In­deed, each member of the party seemsto hold. some grievance against Long­street. Drury Lane, retired Shakespear­ean actor, is helping Tbumm and D. A.Bruno. Lane, who says he thinks heknows the murderer, refers to him asMr. X. but refuses to name him. Thethree go to the Weehawken Ferry oneevening tn answer to an unsigned letterpurporting to be from somebody on thefatal trolley. About midnight, as a ferryboat comes into the slip, there Is greatcommotion. Lane and Bruno push for­ward. "Man overboard," rings the cry."They say he fell from the top deck."explains a ferryman. The men find De­Witt on his way home. The four go tothe top deck. "Something rummy here,”says Thumm. "The body was draggedacross the deck. It might be murder.”The crushed body of the man Is hauledon the deck. The visor of his cap bearsthe metal number 2101—Third Ave. Rail­ways. His Identification card is signedCharles Wood. "The writer of the let-ter." cries Thumm, “the conductor ofthe murder carl" DeWitt sat In his chair as if turned to stone. From his eyes It wasdoubtful whether be had even heard the exchange of questions andanswers. "Everybody see the same thing?”There was a chorus of assent."Anybody see anything else—maybe get a look at the face as itfell past?"They looked at each other doubt­fully."Very well Jonas! Take theirnames. occupations and ad­dresses." The detective steppedinto the midst of the group. After Havemeyer came a ferry boot­black, then Mrs. Martha Wilson,returning fjom work as scrubwomanin a Times Square offlce-building.The fourth was a large dapper man,Henry Nixon, dressed in a shriek­ing checked suit. An itinerant sales­man of cheap jewelry, he told ofstrolling forward through the cabin "You're sure of the time—10:30?"“Sure I’m sure. Ferries run onschedule. Charley was carryin* hisbag, and I asked him if he'd beenin town the night before as perusual—y’see, sometimes he stayedover in the City—but no, he says,it was jest a second-hand bag he'dbought on his off-time today; handleof the old one'd broke. And—" "What kind of bag was it?" de­manded Thumm. Hicks pursed his Ups. “Jest oneo' these cheap black handbags youcan buy for a buck anywhere.Square, kind of.”Thumm motioned to DetectivePeabody. "See If any of the pas­sengers have bags like Hicks de­ scribes. And get a search startedon the Mohawk for a bag of thatdescription. Have the boys on thepolice boat search the water­might have been thrown or fallenoverboard."As Peabody strolled out, DruryLane said: "Hicks, was Woodsmoking a cigar while you chat­ ted?"Hicks' eyes widened at this ap-paritional inquisitor, but he replied:"Yes. Matter of fact, I asked Char­ley for one. Them Cremos hesmoked sorta appealed to me. Buthe said: 'I’m aU out, Pete. I’m when the jy-dy hurtled past the win­dow.

"When did you get aboardthe Mohawk tonight?""1 took the 11:30 boat," said De­ Witt."Were you on the upper passen­ger deck during any part of theten-minute ride across the river?” asked Thumm."Suspicious again, Inspector?No."“Did you see Conductor Woodduring the trip?""No.""If you had seen him, would youhave recognized him?" "I think so."Thumm produced ■ paper pack­et of matches, ripped one away,■truck It and lit bis cigarette mostcarefully. "In al! the time* you'veseen Wood on hl* car, did you ever■peak to him?”"Of course not.” DeWitt seemed amused."When I itepped on the ferry youwere Just leaving. You certainly knew an accident bad occurred.Weren't you curloui enough to stayand And out what bad happened?”"No. I was tired, anxious to getborne.""DeWitt, do you smoke?""Cigars." be said slowly."Have you any with you?"Silently DeWitt produced ■ leath­er cigar-case, neatly initialed Ingold, and handed It to the Inspec­ tor. Thumm polled the top swayand. taking out one of three cigars,exsmlned It minutely. On the cigarwas a gilt band lettered J. O, DeW."Private brand, DeWitt?”"Yes May I ask What of It?” "Have you ever offered Wood oneof these cigars—on the street-caror anywhere else?”"Certainly not""That's fine. DeWitt.” chortledThumm. "Because I've found oneof your special-brand. Initial-bandedcigars tn ths vest pocket of thedead manl" smokin’ my last one.' ”"Smart question at that, Mr Lane,” said Thumin grudgingly.DeWitt sat in his chair as i!turned to stone. From his eyes, itwas doubtful whether he had even heard the exchange of questionsand answers"Guiness," said Tbumm, "do youknow where Wood lived?""In a rooming-house in Weehaw-kin—2075 Boulevard.”"Any relatives?""He wasn't,married and he nev­ er said a word about kin.""Here's another thing.” put tnHicks. "While Charley and me weretalkin', all of a sudden he points toa little geezer that gets out of acab all bundled up and buys a ferry­ticket. Charley says to m* thatthe little guy was the broker, JohnDeWitt, the fellow mixed up tn the murder on Charley's car.""Whatl” roared Thumm. "Yousay this was around 10:30?" Heglared down at DeWitt, who hadroused now and was sitting, for­ward. bands gripping the arms ofthe chair. “Go on, Hickst Did De­Witt see Wood?”"Reckon not, He stuck tn a cor­ner, all by himself. As the ferryboat came in be went through thegate and Curley says good-bye andgoes In too.”Thumm pushed by the ferrymanto the broker. “Hicks, is this theman Wood pointed out to you?”Hicks stretched bls attenuatedneck. “Yep,”“Good enough. You two go down­stairs and wait for me." Thummturned to DeWitt end growled:"Now. suppose you explain bow youwere seen boarding the 10:45 ferry,yet ■ while ago you said It wasthe 11:30."DeWitt made a sorry attempt tosmile. "Yes. gentlemen, 1 took the10:45 boat” "Why’d youThumm shouted."That." said DeWitt quietly. "1must refuse to explain I bad anappointment with some--ne on the10:45 boat, but the matter wasstrictly personal and had nothingto do with this ghastly business "“If the appointment was for the10.45 boat, why were you on until11:40?”"The person 1 was waiting tordid not show up I remained fortour trips, suspecting a delay. At11 <0 I decided to gn home " Thumm snickered "Who wereyou welting for?" Ue,DeWitt?" At this moment two men ap­ peared st the door, led by a policecaptain.The newcomers were PatrickGuiness, who had driven the street­car in which Longstreet bad beenmurdered, ano a lean oM man whosaid he was Peter Hicks, ferrymanon the Now York side(Mnees glanced at Wood's remains, swallowed convulsively andmumbled "It's Charley, wll right "“Hicks, got anything to offerabout Wood's movements tonight?"Thumm askedThe ferrymen nodded “Aroundba'past ten.

Any record of it?”"It was made over the phonethis morning at my office. My op­erators keep no record of incomingcalls.”“You knew the person who calledyou?”DeWitt remained silent Thumm grasped Bruno’s arm andmarched him to a corner. The twomen conferred in heated whispers.Drury Lane sighed and closed biseyes.At this moment Peabody returnedfrom the waiting-room with a groupin tow and detectives brought infive cheap, black handbags. "Hereare some bags like you described,”grinned Peabody, “and their anx­ious owners.” Thumm opened one of the bags;the scrubwoman uttered an out­raged little gasp. Thumm pulledout a bundle of soiled working­clothes and a lunch-box. On thenext bag, the jewelry salesmanstepped forward; it contained sev-eral cardboard trays covered withcheap trinkets and a pad of orderblanks with the man’s name Im­printed, The next bag revealed apair of dirty old trousers and somatools. Thumm looked up and saw the Mohawk pilot regarding himanxiously. "Yours?” "Yes, sir.”The fourth contained a dockwork­er's change of clothing and a lunch­ box; the other, three baby-diapers,a half-filled nursing-bottle, a pack­et of safety-pins, and a little blan­ket. They belonged to a young cou­ple with a sleeping infantThumm whirled on himself likea furious dog chasing his own tail."I'm going over to Wood's room­ing-house with some of the boys,Bruno."District Attorney Bruno strolledinto Thumm’s office. "Well, whathappened last night?”“We went out to that roominghouse, but got nothing except somemors samples of his handwriting.Here they are." Thumm riffledthrough a bundle of papers on bisdesk.Dr. Schilling marched in.

(TUttLOMTlNVtDJ INQUIRY IN CAMERANotwithstanding the impression tothe contrary, yet the inquiry illt0the Hong Kong affair has been heldin camera not through the decisionof the Government but by the ChiefJustice. This information has beengiven by Premier King himself.NO DISCLOSURE OF ENTIREINCOME Since the United States and Can­ ada have signed a reciprocal tax agreement, the fear has been ex­ pressed in Ottawa that this exchange of information between the coun­ tries might have unfortunate con­ sequences because tax matters are public property in the United States but not here, particularly since such information is usually used in the United States to satisfy curiosity. However, it has been dis­ closed along Parliament Hill that this arrangement will not mean dis­ closure of the entire income of any individual because the information in question will relate entirely to in­ vestments of nationals of one coun­ try in another country, without any other information being in­ volved. PLACEMENT OF EX-SERVICE MEN Hon. Ian MacKenzie, Minister of Pensions and National Health, has indicated that nearly 45,000 men discharged from Canada’s armed forces have produced only about 1,062 men who have been unable so far to find proper femployment. This is considered to ibe an extreme­ ly good record. ELECTRICITY AND VICTORY While the man-in-the-street may not realize it, yet electricity will play a big role in victory for the Allies. This is recognized in well- informed quarters in the nation's capital. Indeed. Canada is now using more than five times the electrical power used in 191", with a large portion of it diverted to war indus­ try. It is used extensively by all three fighting forces, including hy­ drophobes for the navy, deGausing cables for merchantmen, communi­ cation and bomb releasing opera­ tions of the air force, where a mod­ ern bomber uses as much as seven miles of electric wiring, and in ground defences, especially for sig­ nal purposes and anti-aircraft bat­ teries where elctrical power plays a big role in providing searchlights for spotting the enemy and direct­ ion finding for shooting. TEMPORARY REVERSES AND TIMELY REACTIONS While the mass of the people of Canada are only now beginning to realize the significance of the serious reverses suffered lately by the Allies, particularly in the Far East tending to make every citizen more and more war conscious, yet the bad re­ ports or news of the war not only convey dramatically vivid impress­ ions of undiminished heavy blows as one stronghold after another is lost by the Allies but the real meaning of these serious set-backs is some­ what nebulous at this time for the man-in-the- street in face of the per­ sistent reporta that some sort of Allied counter-action is in the mak­ ing. (From time to time these reverses or bad news constitute the gist of criticisms or circumstances that seem to offer no immediate justifl- cation for optimism on the part of the man-in-the street throughout Can­ ada, but in so far as an experienced observer backstage along Parlia­ ment Hill ia concerned the ac­ tualities of the war situation are not so dark, even in the Far East. In other words, without an accurate and detailed knowledge of the war situation, including the Far East, the man-in-the-street in Canada must not accept without proper res­ ervation or qualification the reports of reverses, particularly when it is remembered that enemy propagan­ dist* desire to produce just such ill- effecta upon the morale of the people. Indeed, it is known in well- informed circle* backstage in the nation’s capital that the power* of resistance to enemy propaganda of the masses, the stay-at-homes, are just as important factors in this modern war, wholly or in large part, as the powers of resistance of the armed forces, with any conscious or unconscious failure to recognize thia faet being the circumstance in which the greatest discouragement lies. Briefly, it t* part of the des­ perate enemy propaganda mahina’s operations to influence public opin­ ion in the whole Western Hernia­ phere and it is of no lesser diabol­ical or destructive force than theirmilitary activities.Since the enemies started theircampaigns to rob and to rule theworld by force or deceit, the na­tions of the Western Hemispherehave passed through three periodsof false hopes and delusion, aidedby enemy 'propagandists and theirfriends. First these nations believed that they would be able to remain neutral in this war by ap­ peasing Hitler, Mussolini and the Japanese military cliques. This pol­ icy failed. Second, these nations be­ lieved that they would not be invol­ ved directly in armed conflict even if they helped the other democracies by furnishing war supplies. This policy failed. Third, these nations believed that they would be able to win the war without huge losses of humafi resources and with a policy of-'“business as usual during alter­ ations’,’ carrying on commerce and industry, politics, and all other nor­ mal activities of life. This policy failed. As a result of these false hopes and wrong reasoning, the initial efforts of the Allies in the past three months have failed somewhat, par- | ticularly in the Far East. Now it is clear that ther Allies can only win the struggle when they have resol­ ved that they can only win through an absolutely united total effort backed by an undivided public opin- I ion within each nation and amongst I themselves. One of th^ principal objectives of enemy propagandists is to destroy this unity of purpose within the realm of each of these Allies, par­ ticularly making desperate and con­ tinuous attempts to arouse public opinion in the United States and other Western Hemisphere nations against Britain and in Britain against the United States and the other nations of this hemisphere. It is an old underhand trick of enemy propagandists, but it is al- -JOT-s replete with potent dangers. In the last World War, the enemy propagandists stressed the saying that “the British are prepared to fight to the last Frenchman." It was, a determined attempt to create the impression amongst the people of France as well as of neutral countries that Britain was the only nation which did not want peace and that she did it because she was really taking no great risks, prac­ tically forcing Frenchman to spill their blood freely in defence of Brit­ ish Imperialism, though the masses of France did not accept these false stories. Now, the enemy propagandists are trying desperately to create feel­ ings of distrust and disunity amongst the Allies, particularly be­ tween Britain and the nations of the Western Hemisphere. So far these attempts have failed to influ. once public opinion in Britain where "fifth columnists" and appeasers are not tolerated and their fortunes are at their lowest point in a long time. However, in the Western Hemisphere, it is somewhat another story because it seems that the en- emy propaganda machine is moving in high gear to discredit Britain in the eyes of the people and to create the impression amongst the masses that the United States or other na­ tions of this hemisphere are fight­ ing in this war in defence of Brit­ ish Imperialism. Of course, it is false just as it was in the case of France in the last war, but the truth is that the nations of this hemisphere are fight­ ing for their existence.

There is challenge and confidence in every hard-heeled stride. A new sense of urgency and expectation is about them. Hong Kong is in their hearts. The distant roll of other men’s guns is in their ears, from Russia, from Libya,, from Malaya, Borneo and Singa­ pore. They curse every campaign as if the very name were a taunt. But now there is an air of belt­ tightening, of inner girding, even of secret licking of lips of men who volunteered to fight and who have been deprived of action. They are satisfied now that they hold a position of first importance in the world conflict. They have no illusions about the terrible intensity •f the attack on England if it comes. They are weighing the possibilities and wagering on the chances. Will Hitler invade England this spring as his last hope for a clean- cu’. Nazi victory? Or will he risk a long-drawn war against mounting Allied might in the meagre hope of snatching- half a victory from the wreckage of half a world? This is neither the usual spring­ time scare-mongering of a side-line critic with an invasion complex, nor is it a wishful thinker’s impression of the arrogantly aggressive spirit of the Canadian. Exude Resolute Purpoie All the buoyancy of the typical last-war Canadian shock-trooper in pre-battle hours is running' high in the "Canadian country-.’’ They are in a defiant, war-whetted mood. As they wait—or, rather, work from dawn till dark and often till dawn •gain—in the wings of what can be the bloodiest arena of all time, and the most critical of all theatres of British wars, the Canadians have suddenly thrown off the irritation •nd sense of frustration of the months behind. They exude resolute purpose. Nothing spectacular occurred. No highly hush-hush and impressive in­ telligence report whispered that in­ vasion was on the cards. In the in­ evitable manner of armies the strategic conception in high places of Hitler’s strictly two-pronged road in this spring of 1942, has passed through the officers’ messes down to Uh last man in the rear-most rank of the Canadian Corps. That is all. At the wind-up of the invaluable grand-scale battle practices of last summer and autumn, Lieut.Gen. A. G. L. McNaughton sent the Canad­ ian Corps back to their training grounds to absorb the lessons learn­ ed. They have been kept at it throughout the winter, first by Major-Gen, G. R. Pearkes, V.C., who took over when General McNaugh­ ton became ill, and then by Lieut.­ Gen. H. D. G. Crerar, D.S.O., who became acting corps Commander at the end of the year. As interesting new field tactics and training inno­ vations were instilled and developed, General Crerar odopted a frank pol­ icy of spreading his personal con­ ception of Nazi strategy through the Corps. First Line Defence Troops Every Canadian private soldier always knew in some degree, vag­ uely or clearly, why the Canadian Corps has been held, *these long, but valuable training months, as first- line defence troops. They always sensed that Hitler could win this war if he knocked out Britain, and that he might try. But now the Canadians see it more sharply. They see that the great Nasi crisis is upon Hitler. £*n affects it little, but Russian tance and the entrance of the ed States a tremendous deal.) They realise that a successful invas­ ion is more than ever a first essen­ tial to Hitler’s triumphs. They think become the only—and last— h'opa of a frantic gambler to snatch victory before the swelling power of Allied men, gun* and gear can overwhelm him. And that is some­ thing •• irrevocable aa fate. Will Hitler mount that all-out invasion of England? Or, bloodily thwarted in his de­ signs on. the immense and essential war resources of Russia and the Caucasus—and with Russia no^v a menace instead of a potential vic­ tim—will the most reckless war lord of modem times be content to play safe? To cling to the slim hope of holding his gains nt some remote peace conference? Hitler now has only those two decisions. In that respect the gambler is much worse off than he was in the spring of 1941. United States Might Piles Up Then he did not have the full might of the United States piling up against him for a black future. Rus­ sia was contemptuously considered a secondary campaign. The British Empire could not yet see final vic­ tory shining at the far end of the bloody corridor of Time, as its em­ battled nations now can. And in the overall sweep' of his changed pros­ pects, it is surprising how little ef­ fect the entrance of Japan, the world’s tempestuous war-stage, has had on the real crux of the conflict. A year ago Hitler had three roads he might take: (1) He could fight a prolonged war and attempt to come out at the end with the bulk of his spoils, per­ haps his most dangerous strategy even then. (2) He could take the big risk and attempt to crush the British Isles, but the danger of completer defeat as penalty for failure de­ terred him. (3 He could assault Russia, gain control of the Ukraine and the en­ virons of the 'Caucasus and the Black Sea, and providing the Axis could also control the Meditenan- ean, he could then create a gigantic Nazi empire, economically self- contained and immune from outward attack, which might have stood for 100 years. The Obvioui Course—Russia It did not require a skilled strat­ egist, even in the spring of 1941, to see the obvious course—Russia. Hitler has tried that third road, and lost both phases. He failed to wrest the necessary rich oil and grain regions from the Russian?, though he poured men and equip- ment into the battle against frost, versts and Soviets with blind disre­ gard for the penalty of ignoring the arithmetic of slaughter. Even if he had succeeded, he has still failed to gain free use of the Mediterranean— which he must have to make his giant dream-empire workable. For, so long as Britain stands as a men­ ace in the Atlantic, the basin of the Mediterranean for Nazi shipping is imperative if his great economic do­ main is to be safe and self-sus­ tained. At least, that is how the Canadian Corps has been looking at the world­ map and seeking to guess enemy Strategy . They are seeing it with Hitler's eyes. They have been pon. dering a way out of his trap for him. They tee that Time, that factor always so powerful in struggles be­ tween nations, again holds the Kales -against Hitler, if he waits. And British arms and the resolute spirit of an unawed people, an against him if he dares the great gamble.

Only See One Road He might, but it is only a hope, still win thqt half-victory by avoid­ ing the all-or-nothing hazard of an assault on the British Isles, which it it would likely constitute. But if he thrinks from it he risks the results of the long roll of events. And the irresistible strength, one, two or three years ahead, of the combined man and munition-power of the United States, Russia and the Brit­ ish Empire, must loom like the en­ gulfing night of Doom itself. That way, it seems certain, lies uncondi­ tional surrender, at the blood-bought end. The Canadians can only see that one road by which a desperate man —and Hitler is one by both temper­ ament and situation—can still hope to attain victory—England! Will he mine-wall the English Channel, seek to create a passable surface corridor, and also come swarming over England with a winged horde? Will he try to repeat Crete ofi gigantic scale? No Canadian Doubt* Outcome No Canadian, in his present jeer­ ing and defiant mood, doubts what the outcome will be. Perhaps there there is some wishful thinking in it, mingled with vast regret for the in­ evitable devastation and destruction but the most confirmed sceptic agrees that there is at least a 50-50 chance that Hitler will make his great gamble. There are those who remember his reckless propensities, and his. utter callousness toward the human cost, who argue that the chances are greater than that. Some think a Nazi invasion of the British Isles is almost a certainty, and at once, that the promise had already been made to Japan before Nippon launched its attack on Pearl Harbor. Japan, they say, is led by a reckless military caste, but they would not have been that foolhardy without Nazi assurance that a grand-scale assault on Britain would be made before Japanese resources could be depleted. Still others declare that a spring invasion will be mounted, if only as a measure to deter any offensive plans we have in mind in the west, while the death-grapple continues in the east. Expect No Half Measure* But Canadians are generally ad­ herents of the belief that the Nazi invasion, if it is attempted, will not be a mere delaying assault. They are blitz-minded themselves and they do not expect Hitler to adopt half-measures. They hold that the only method of defeating the Nazis in the field is to use, or improve on the German’s own tactics—the fur­ ious, all-out intensity of attack which gave modern war-nomenclat­ ure the word "blitxkreig”, and the sustained speed and power of which are its secrets. Individually, the Can­ adians have been struggling to ac­ quire the diepa»«ionate fight- and- kill ruthlessness of the Commandos. Aa a fighting machine, the Corps will assault with all the power and weight of metal which industrializa­ tion can give it. And »o they are waiting for ■ combined sea and air assault which will attempt to reach, and then to sustain a hurricane fury that is not yet conceivable. The Canadians are realists. They envision Hitler hurling clouds of his most fanatical followers over chosen areas in suicidal transports and sac­ rificial gliders. They think he will be prepared to lose seaborne troops in tens of thousands in the Channel in the effort to establish a surface bridgehead. They believe it will be swift and terrible, but not prolonged. Hitler will either win in a single, world-shattering coup, or he will suffer such appalling casualties in the first few hours that even the Butcher of Borchtcsgarden will re­ coil from the carnage. Corp* I* Ready The Canadian Corps is ready. They are trained as no Canadian troops ever had the chance to be trained in the last war. Despite their long spell of duty as defence troops they have retained their natural offensive spirit; their idea of de­ fence is to mount an attack and oust or kill the attacker. The Nazis will find them a startling combination; they are modern shock-troopers with the lone-hawk fighting skill of a guerilla and the team-spirit of a Commando. Even an observer lack­ ing the keen discernment of military experience can see their troop-qual­ ity; they are steady and hard; they give the stranger a level-eyed ap­ praisal from a poise of conscious fighting competence and complete self-reliance. Corp* Comfort British In the face of that threat of spring, it is not vainglorious to. repeat that the latent power and leashed strength of the Canadian Corps is a vast comfort to the Brit­ ish people. As Winston Churchill said, he sleeps better at night know­ ing they are there . Apart entirely from their fighting repute, there is the fact that probably no Allied for­ mation has been so rigidly and suc­ cessfully held together as a compact entity. No Allied unit can mount greater shock-power, is any better trained, or armed or led, or has been less depleted by the demands of other campaigns, than the Canadian Corps. If invasion does not come, the realization of how desperately Hit­ ler needs that crucial, all-dominant key victory has been a tremendous spring tonic. Preparations to with­ stand the shock and strain of the confuted battle scene they envision has invigorated the entire Corps; every Canadian is tensed and on his toes. They will be all the tougher, all the better steeled and fitted for what the ebb and flow of war's tide does bring to them.

Potato water hastens the yeast action, therefore the place in which the dough is set to rise should not be too warm. The baked bread or rolls do not get stale as quickly as when water is used. Minerals are also supplied through the use of this liquid. 3. Remember that dry yeast must be dissolved in warm water and set aside for an hour before it is added to batter, 4. Too much sugar slackens or softens dough. Decrease the amount of liquid if you desire a sweet product. Mr. and Mrs. S. E.
