This depart­ ment supplies educational material, menus, recipes and instructions to the camps and help* in solving any problems which may arise in connection with the food. W Once again, the women of Ontario, who have re­ sponded so nobly to other war emergencies, are asked to serve again . . . 'on the farm front. There is a vital need for women to act as cook-supervisors of these camps of young farm helpers. They should be good cook* with the faculty to understand young people. A number of women have already offered to serve and are now cooking for and supervising the routine of young worker*, but many snore women are needed. There is a serious shortage of farm help. Canadian farmers stand face to face with the grim foreboding of a crop shortage. It would affect every man, wo­ man and child in Canada. Our fighting forces too would feel the blow. Such a calamity would delight the Axis. But our school boy* and girls are giving Hitler and Company no chance for glee. They have given up their laxy summer holidays, their beloved camping trips, their visits to the cottage. From dawn to dusk they are helping the farmers. It’s hard work and their young bodies need nourishing, well balanced meal*. And they need also the presence of motherly women who can offer encouragement Women of Ontario! Those are your children out there toiling for their country. Do you want to help them? Maybe your decision to offer your services will mean some sacrifice to. your family or yourself, but it is one way you can surely help your country. The work is not hard. Probably you will enjoy getting away from the rush and roar of the town to breathe the clean fresh air of the country. You will have comfortable quarters and pleasant working sur­ roundings. And you will have the trust and compan­ ionship of a group of happy teen-ager*. There will be no laundry work, house cleaning, etc., and you will be paid for your services—according to the number in your charge. Those willing to help should communicate with the Supervisor of Nutrition Services, Ontario Division of the Red Cross, 621 Jarvis Street, Ontario. Eradication of Weeds Important Pastures, Ontario’s cheapest farm feed, will be­ come a liability instead of an asset unless more at­ tention is paid to the eradication of noxious weeds, warns John D. MacLeod, Crops, Seeds and Weeds Branch, Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto. At the present time, the Department is exercised over the alarming spread this year of two pasture weeds, King Devil and Orange Hawkweed which are found on roadsides, old meadows and particularly on rough permanent pasture where cultivation is dif­ ficult. Both are vigorous growing perennial weed* with shallow rooted creeping rootstocks. Leaves of both plants are for the most part, at­ tached to the crown and not to the stem. Leaves and stems are extremely hairy and filled with a bitter milky juice which livestock do not relish. Orange Hawkweed grows one to two feet high and lias fiery orange-red blossoms grouped in clus­ ters. King Devil may grow three feet high and has a yellow blossom similar to Perennial Sow Thistle but ia^only half the sixe. The beat method of controlling Hawkweed and other pasture weed* is to build up the soil fertility and develop a thick sod of vigorous pasture plant*. Hawkweed will not stand cultivation. Therefore pasture fields should be broken if possible and after being well fertilised, ‘sown to a permanent pasture mixture. Pastures should be top dressed spring or fall and the mower used frequently to prevent weeds from maturing teed. Chemicals can also be used to eradi­ cate Hawkweed. “Couldn’t “Keep ’Em Flying” Bones of the extinct Great Auk have just been received by the Royal Ontario Museum. This'bulky sea-bird was “fightles*, "grounded”, shall we say, by too small a wing-spread. Nature couldn't "keep 'em flying”, and they were doomed. History tell* us that as |«te as 1785, French and English mariners regu­ larly visited the low island* in the seas of Newfound­ land to stock their larder*. They herded these luck­ less bird* over gang-plank* onto their ships, where they were slaughtered and salted down. The Great Ank l^eeame extinct about 1844. When Ingersoll folk are paying a visit to their friends they should now observe the courtesy of bringing their own sugar or else their ration card. This i« a new phase of etiquette brought about by fhe Wartime Price* and Trade Board coupon rston- ing of sugar. Every member of the farmer's household should have a ration card, but where the farmer is in the habit of hiring occasional help, apeetal voucher, will be supplied to the farmer's wife for the purchase of extra sugar.

The beauty-parlor* of our day do their bent in that direction, but by the time the hea4ache, induced by their infernal machines, has worn off, we aro much the same as usual, with the exception perhaps of innumer­ able curls, that persist in going any and every way except that decided upon by the expert manipulator who designed them. However, to be beautiful is the desire of all women, and they will go to almost any lengths to acquire that gift of the gods, so be it they have seen fit to deny it to them. A woman may be virtuous as Brutus' wife and clever a* the goddeap Athene, but let any man tell her she is beautiful and she is ready to forget she is virtuous., and to think little of her skill in remembering all that the wise old codgers of other day* have written. She, in other word*, fall* for it, hook, line and stinker, and sees the flatterer, and he’s probably a pre­ varicator as well, as the epitome of all that is gallant and wise. She even may marry him when, of course, it takes but little time to convince her that he was a liar and she a fool, lightly to toe* away the wisdom of the savants, for the pseudo wisdom of one who had merely been exercising his perogative of taking a man’s way with a maid. To kill any woman's chances of marrting, it is only necessary tospreJk the foul report that she is sensible. It's utterly damning and dams up all her otherwise good chances. How else account for the numbers of unwed women who, the least alert among us unerringly know, would have made splendid /wive* and mothers? They were sensible girls, girl* who knew how to cook and sew, and keep a place in apple pie order, who themselves were always neat hut never gaudy, and who probably scorned to scream and cling to the strong ann of the strong male when a mouse put in its pretty but unexpected appearance. She may even have rather liked the little pert thing and said so, or more fatally, as regarded her chances of winning heroelf a beau, she may have ventured a learned dissertation on the genus mouse. That would out of doubt have put the tin hat on it and clamped it down hard, for of al] creatures it is the clever woman with a flair for airing her bookishness, that the wary’ttwle most fears. So girls, would you be a wife, be neither clever nor sensible, or if you cannot avoid being either or both, hide the fact as you do>that annoying blemish under that prettily arranged lock of hair. Take a lesson or two in that newest insanity, jitterbugging and be sure to let him out jitterbug you. Use words of one syllable and occas­ ionally try out some baby talk. Adore his masculinity, with honeyed word* and tender looks, and for heaven's sake discard all shoes and clothes of the sensible type. Discuss no ques­ tion that requires any thought, and tentatively let it be known that you believexthat politics are essentially masculine gender, and it little be­ hooves a nice girl even to think about them. By this you are probably thinking that one must needs be a fool in­ deed if to get oneself a husband it is necessary to act in this way. Not at nil. As a matter of fact, the majority of girl* have to be very clever to disguise their native intelli­ gence. It’s apt to pop out unawares unless kept under strict control, and so, disastrously, to prevent him popp­ ing the question. To sum up, why shouldn't a girl desire to be beautiful, to go to any lengths to be attractive? It is the first and very often the only thing that leads the foolish male to cast a second glance. Beside* which if you succeed by these tactic*, all that pent up cleverness and unattractive com­ mon sense, which is never common, by th« way, can be used on the real job that come* after the fait accompli. And it will take it all, never doubt it And always that husband of yours, remembering how sweetly asinine you were, how very adorable were your clinging girlish ways, will think that hi* strong and manly in­ fluence ha* been the touch stone that ha* made of you such a clever and sensible wife and mother. Seek not to destroy that pleasing delusion. BRITISH INDUSTr IeT—- From Robert Williamson —• Mr*. G. R. Stone and Geraldine of -Mount Elgin, spent Friday with relatives at StnaffordviUe, Teacher — "Sammy, name the four season*." Sammy—"Smit, mustard, vinegar •nd pepper PETROL—30,000,000 GALLONSTwenty of London’s giant passen­ger buses will soon be trailing behindthem miniature anthracite furnacesso Hiat they can run o<> producer-gas ins.'C.d of petro’. Tn their rri.Jion- miles a year of road service the 20 buses will save something like 175,- 000 gallons of petrol; and, if the whole of the 800 London Transport buses suitable for conversion are fit­ ted up for the new fuel, deep-sea tankers will be relieved of the job of carrying 7,000,000 gallons of petrol a year. But this is only one item in Bri­ tain’s campaign to save petrol. Al­ ready 1,000 commercial vehicles are burning producer-gas, and the Gov­ ernment ha* announced plan* for 10,000 more vehicles equipped with the system, which will save 30,000,- 000 gallons of petrol a year. The launching of this great fleet of vehicles producing their own car­ bon monoxide gas is successful result of continuous research into fuel problems since the war began. The first producer-gas unit was made by an Englishman during the last war but subsequent development has been principally in Europe, where, however, it centred rather upon the charcoal fuel to be had there rather on the coke or anthracite used in Britain. The present success of Brit­ ish chemists and engineers has there­ fore been achieved from an entirely fresh start. WORLD THATCHING RECORD Novel British Machine Make* Mile of Rick Matting a Day An invention patented in 1896 but stillborn because it was before it* time has been produced in a modern­ ised power-driven verwon to help on Britain's agricultural front. It is a thatch-making machine which enables ricks to be covered at half the cost and one fifth the man- houra of the old method and is being made in hundreds for Britain’s next harvest. Straw fed into the machine is stit­ ched into a continuous mat, which is then cut into convenient lengths gen­ erally of 9 ft. or 12 ft The manu­ facturing cost is about 3ftd. a yard (with wheatened straw at £4.10s a ton) and the production rate is from 2 yards a minute, although one farm­ er claims that he can make a mile in a day. The job can be done at any time of the year and the matting stored in roll* until required. County Agricultural Committees are finding ithat the machines solved many of Britain's wartime problems. Unskilled labour can be used either on the farm or in the committee’s central depots, where length* ofpnat. ting can be made and distributed to farms in the locality. Rick* dsn be thatched immediately they are built, for there are no peg* to fall out and the normal sinking only pulls th- stitches tighter, saving the use of rick covers and avoiding the risk of weather damage. While the rick is settling the thatch is completely gale proof. NAVY’S 15,000 RADIOS Portable radio seta for ships crews which do not give away positions to the endmy are now in use in Britain's Royal Navy. The Navy has received more than 15000 seta and £25000 raised by vol­ untary subscriptions has been spent by the Admiralty in supplying them. Corvettes, minesweepers, sloops, sub­ marines and torpedo boats are among the small craft whope ships’ compan­ ies can now listen in when off duty. As the seta are "screened", they do qv re-nsdiate, and so do not disclose the ship’s position to the enemy. The manufacturer* made several modifications in a standard portable radio, giving it an exceptionally strong cabinet and fitting up toe "chassis” so that the set would be able to stand up to the many hard knocks . likely to be received under Service conditions. It he* roughly 800 separate part*. No accumulator is necessary and the battery give* 240 hour*' service. The maker* have been able to issue fresh batteries VL the rate of 1,000 a week, and 10,000 valves have been sent out in the last twelve monthk. Th Royal Air Force has been supplied with 5,000 *eta and the Army htu? had 8,000. They an» being used in many remote district* of Britain sa well a* in Iceland and the Middle East. The manufacturer* carried on pro­ ducing the seta throughout the "blita” although their factory and workshops were actually razed to the ground and many essential parts and machine tool* destroyed. Deipite these difficulties, they have been able to carry on, and there are now more than 100,000 of their seta in use.

Uniformity in these stampings is the aim so that the in­ struments may be machined and set, and, after minor adjustment^ from a skilled operator, and turned out with perfect workmanship.

Girl Guides and Brownies Held Open House The Girl Guides and Brownies of St. James* Church held "Open House”, in the parish hall recently, when they entertained their par­ ent* and friends at a demonstration of the work accomplished during the year. A long table at the front of the hall displayed the war work of both Guides and Brownies, quilts, afghans, and many articles of cloth­ ing for babies and small children. These articles will be sent to Girl Guide Headquarters in Toronto and from there will go to Guide Head­ quarter* in England to be distribu­ ted to bombed-out victims, nurseries, or wherever the need is greatest. The program was presided over by Mrs. P. L. Grimes, the president of the Girl Guide Council, who wel­ comed the guests and thanked the members of the council and the Guide and Brownie leaders for their co-operation during ,the year. The first item was a demonstration by* the Brownies and their Brown Owl. Mrs. Stanley Turner, of semaphore signalling, and a Brownie game. The Guide company was then in­ spected by Capt. Elisabeth Elford. and five girls who had passed their Tenderfoot vests were enrolled as Guides: Shirley Clark, Noreen Heeney, Doreen Hyslop, Janet Moore and Dorothy Crane. Miss El­ ford also presented the prizes: Al­ ma Tonka was awarded a pin for taking the most orders in the an­ nual doughnut selling drive—95 dozen. The prizes for perfect at­ tendance during the year were won by Jean Bleakley in A Group; Helen Matthews in B Group and Joyce Turner in the Brownies, while 13 little Brownies had earned their "golden bar." Grouped under their leader, Mrs. Raynham, demonstrated some of their Guide work: Norso signalling knot tying, first aid and a charming Ozecho-Slovakian dance. Mr. James West's gymnasium class from Group A performed a drill and march under Mr. West’s direction and his Brownie class a drill and • game. Guides and Brownies then gather­ ed around a “camp-fire’’ for a sing­ song by ."moon-light.’* One of their songs has words written by M&J* Raynham and the girls have adopted it as their Guide song. The rector of St. James’ Church, the Rev. H. E. Mertfield, gave a shoft “camp­ fire talk” to the girl and their par­ ent* on the work and aims of the Girl Guides. The progtam closed with the singing of “Taps," after which refreshments were served by the Guides and the council. are the "Hotaoldikn"— tikiKhcm the ' Home Front’ Delightful desserts can still beserved to the family—rich, nourish­ ing custards, and blanc manges made easily, and at little cow with Canada Corn Starch.

Today's armykitchen is equipped with a bright, shiny electric potato peeler than can slice the skin of a spud in the time it took a kitchen fatigue man to do three. U sing electric potato peelers to *ave valuable manhours is only one innovation of Canada’s top-notch Ordnance Corps. Every weapon and article of clothing with which a soldier is issued comes from the Ordnance Corps. And the speed with whichthe modernization of weapons and clothing has taken place is due in great part to the work of themen of that Corps, The past generation or so saw itsfull quota of arguments anent thevexed problem, heredity versus en­vironment. It never was settled tothe satisfaction of either party affil­iates, for like the majority of ques­tions, there were arguments, good, bad and indifferent, on both sidesand, again likd| most controversial subjects, neither side was able to appreciate the worth of the conten­ tions of the other. But after being subjected to both in the classroom and from the platform, I distinctly gave my adherence to environment as against heredity, as holding the counterbalancing factor, and that is not to say that I do not think that a child -inherits from its immediate, and sometimes not so immediate ancestors, traits, good or bad, that give rise to tendencies in character and ability, but both character and ability are made or marred by the environment of the child in its ten­ der years. • It isn’t of course^ given to all of us to know just wfifflba child should be; just what it inherits and what comes from association. It may be that most of us are as we are, be­ cause we lack ambition to be other­ wise. We take the course of least re­ sistance, but if we are given oppor­ tunities to develop only that which is good in our inheritance, we can surely rise to greater heights than if our opportunities are meagre or weighted down on the side of neg­ lect or positive evil. I’ve seen this happen. To me the greatest argument for the case of environment is to be found in the Borstal System, as practised and proved good in Britain. There the child delinquent is removed entirely from an unsavory atmosphere. He is taken from the slum, away from inadequate parents, away from the filth and hunger and petty thieving that accompanies these other evils, and is placed in a home, a real hqme, not a so-called reformatory that fails to reform. There hqs is given the care and individual attesttion, the food and •*?nedical treats ment, that make him physically strong and enable his pinched little soul to blossom, as only love and its attendant care can. You see, I don’t believe that w«« are born in sin, I believe rather that we are born in purity, that we can develop in pur­ ity, and ascend in purity to the God who made us in His own image. I know 1 fall foul of the Canons of the Church in so believing and in so stating, but to say otherwise would be for me untruth. So what would you? The Borstal System has proved so adequate that after two Genera­tions of trial in England, thfl num­ ber of criminals has fallen to suchan extent that she has found'it nec­ essary to dismantle some of her biggest prisons. The figures, as given by Alex. Adminson, K.C., one of Canada’s outstanding criminolo­ gists, are outstanding. Here in Can­ ada, 80% of our juvenile delin­ quents end up as “repeaters,” that is they become definitely of the criminal class. They cost the country tremendous sums of money each year and ’become derelicts, either in or out of prison. In England, on the oXher hand, since the Borstal System rescued the young misdoer and gave him a chance equal to that of the decently born and carefully raised, the figures are the reverse of ours, for it has been shown that nearly ninety per cent of these boys and girls become good citizens and never again appear as offenders in the Courts of Law. Isn't that an argument for environment? Isn’t it worth trying here? It is useless to wait until crimin­ ality has become ingrained. Only as neglected children are taken while still children, can the result be other than it is here. Give a child, born of the finest parents, a slum to live in; surround it with the debauched and criminal as its guardians; neg­ lect its education; give it poor food to satisfy its hunger and cast-off rags to clothe it, and you’ll soon turn your angel child into a worth­ less slut or confirmed thief.

Their poverty has been of the material only and not of the mental and moral and spiritual kind. Such lack of wealth does not necessarily mean lack of anything needed for the de­ velopment of character, just as abundance of wealth does not al­ ways mean the presence of those in­ fluences that draw out the best and subdue the worst in a character. But that is just what the Borstal System does do, It gives the child a chance.—Eveline A. Long. The air raid warden had had a tiring time inspecting shelters when a large man asked him in bullying tones: “What can I do with my five children in a shelter that's full of water?” The warden's patience gave out. “Teach ’em to swim!” he snapped curtly. < Seeing her former suitor at a party, a girl decided to snub him. “So sorry," she murmured when the hostess introduced him, “bat 1 didn’t get your name.” “I know you didn’t," said the un­ abashed f.s., “but you certainly tried hard enough.” A Shiek In the RAF?

IT WON’T be long now before we photographers enter upon our most active season. Summer is very close, and I think It is the dutyof every practical photographer to prepare for the picture possibilities .t will offer. The first thing to do, of course, Is to check up on your camera.Make sure It is In good condition and that any necessary repair* are taken care of noir. But here’s an-■ other point; last year you probably made some mistakes. Well, now is the time to review them so thatriils year you won’t make them again. One common mistake you may bare made was that of falling to hold your camera steady whenmapping your pictures. To avoid that this year, practice picture making with an empty camera until you -A *n release the shutter withoutjarring the camera in the least. And stick to shutter speeds such. as1/50 and 1/100 of a second, sothat the shutter speed will compen­ sate for any possible camera move­ ment With box camera* hold yourbreath while you snap the picture. Another frequent mistake to avoid this year is double exposure. You know what that Is, I'm sure. To avoid It this time, make It a constant practice to wind the filmon to the next exposure immediate­ ly after you take a picture. And make It a point to keep both yourlens and camera immaculately clean. That’s another guarantee of better pictures. Then too, watch out for tiltingthe camera. Tilted cameras have spoiledrmany fine snapshots. And, speaking of things to check on,don't forget correct focus. There'snothing which will spoil a potential picture as quickly as incorrect focus. It takes only a minute to make sure that your camera Is In focus, so this year resolve that you’re going to take that minute and be safe rather than sorry. 38S John van Guilder W E D D IN G SJEWKES—ANDERSONDorcheitar—Saturday afternoon, June 27th, apretty wedding was solemnized inthe United Church, Dorchester, at2 o'clock, when Mary Duncan Ander­ son, only daughter of Mrs. Helen Anderson and the late Andrew An­ derson of Dorchester, was united in marriage to Corp.

W, H. Cullia, Inspector of Insur The first and only veteran of the last war to go overseas from Inger­ soll in this war, Private H. William Hipperson, has been invalided back to Canada and arrived at his home here, 63 King street east last week. Private Hipperson tried to enlist at the outbreak of war with the Ox­ ford Rifles but was turned down. He was accepted however, in August, 1940. when he enlisted with the Royal Canadian Ordnance Corps at London and went overSeas in Janu­ ary, 1941. The climate overseas brought on bronchial trouble and he has been invalided home after being in a hospital in the British Isles for several weeks. Private Hipperson served four years and two months during the last war. He went overseas in June, 1915 and was in the army until August, 1919, being wounded twice. He has one son, Ronald Hipperson now overseas with the Canadian Army Service Corps. In speaking with The Tribune, Private Hipperson stated that he en­ joyed very much keeping in touch with the doing* in the home town through the columns of The Tribune which he received regularly while overseas. He paid tribute to the lo­ cal organizations that are regularly sending smokes and other things to the Ingersoll boys over there, and said: “There z is nothing the boys appreciate more than a package of cigarettes. Cigarettes are very hard to get and are qtiite expensive in Britain and besides they are not as appealing to the Canadian boys as the smokes they get from home.” He reported a pleasant ocean trip going and returning home and re­ ferred to the high morale of the the Canadian Troops now overseas who are anxiously waiting to get their turn in fighting the enemy.

She turns out to be an uglyrecluse ot a woman who lives in a shacknear the abandoned "Break O* Day"Iron mine. Rose Walker, granddaugh­ter of tbe owner ot the mine, runs thelocal store and post office. Jerry goes toAngela Slinn's shack. She denies know­ing Joseph SHnn.

Hespent a long and frantic minutereeking some support, and did final­ly discover an outthrust rock. Hedrew himself up."I wonder.” he gasped, "if theJoseph SHnn felt like I did.In mat case—sorry. Drowning's arotten death.”The valley stretched away withneither house nor man in sight. Theturquoise surface of the lake wasunruffled."I'll bet there's a creek on theother side of here — somewhereback below Ironburg." said Jerry,gradually recovering his breath."And that's where this under­ground spring empties. It mayrise in a subterranean spring, butit's on its way somewhere, allright.”He was fit at last to regain hisclothes. He had to swim across tothem—the foot of these cliffs weretoo steep 'to furnish means for ashore promenade—and he dreadedcommitting his body once more tothe lake's tender mercies.However, the thing was accom­plished. He dressed and returnedupward to the clump of pines be­side Angie Slinn's shanty.The sickly garden parched underthe noon sun. The makeshift chim­ney was still smokeless.

Jerry flung a cautious arm aroundthat thin trunk and leaned beyondit. far over the edge, gazing down­ward.Sheer walls, of course. Blue­green water—yes, quite still. Quitestill, yet unnaturally vivid.

His course was ar­rested as violently as It had been begun. He blinked upward.He was holding by one arm tothat pine sapling. The sapling heldby a few roots to the still unbrokenearth just behind the little land­slide's starting place. "Help!” he yelled.Even now the shale around theroots seemed to be slipping. A handful of powdered earth slipped toward him."Help!”Could the creature in that shack behind the pines hear him? Wouldshe answer if she heard? There was nobody else within a radiusof at least a mile. Nobody,"Hello!”Underbrush snapped. Footstepssounded—running. "Where are you?” "Here!” No. that was a sense­less response: he added: "Here atthe edge—falling.” His first call had been loud enough: try as hewould, their successors sounded inhis ears like mere whispers. "Hurry!”"Hello!” The bushes parted. A startledface looked down at him; theflushed face and staring browneyes of the pretty postmistress from Ironburg.-I-----“Here!” She moved with rapid­ity. but without panic.

"I ought to do anything you say."he told her. "You saved my life,all right. I don’t know how I canever thank—""You haven’t any sense." Shewas scornful enough at the last“Couldn't you see that the groundwas likely to give way?""That's so. I guess I haven't much.” "If I hadn't happened lo've comeout here to get Angie to tend storethis afternoon—and if she wasn’tsick—and if I hadn’t got her bucketand rope and started to draw somewater for her . . ."Rose stopped for want ot breath.Jerry nodded."Go on,” said he. "Scold me somemore. I deserve all you can handme. And—1 like to hear you talk.”She gasped at him. “And youcall that gratitude!” said she."The evidence Is all against me,and yet honestly," Jerry grinninglyprotested. “I wasn't trying to com­mit suicide.”Rose made him rest while shedrew that water for the still invisi­ ble Angie and delivered it insidethe shack. When Miss Walker hadreturned and man and girl werestrolling toward Ironburg together: "Is she very sick?" Jerry In­quired."She seemed ready to take onJoe Louis when I saw her a whileago.’.’"You’ve been In there?""Been to the door.”"She prefers to be let alone,”said Rose. “So do I.”"Then I bet you don’t often getwhat you prefer.

I see her'most every-day, and yet I don'tknow her a bit better than I didwhen she first came to Ironburg.""Anyhow, she's lived here forfive or six years. Hasn't she anyrelations anywhere? Doesn't sheever go away on a visit?""No, to both questions. At least,if she has any relations, I've neverheard her speak of them.”"She must get letters, though,”pursued Jerry hopefully."Mighty few,” Rose commented.The couple had left the barrentablrfand and turned along the for­est lined turnpike. A natural hedgeof wild roses ran at Jerry's right.He thought it wise to bend andpluck one of the flowers so that hisface was averted as he inquired;"Any letters postmarked Al­bany?”Rose made him immediatelythankful that his telltale face washidden. “See here! A postmis­tress isn't supposed to give awaysuch information, and nobody hasa right to ask for it except a postal inspector. Are you a postal inspec­tor?”"No."“Then what’s the Idea?” '"Morbid curiosity.”The girl’s throaty laughter her­alded her comment. "I believeyou’re In Jove with Angiel”“Not yet I’m not that morbid.I’m only in love with you.”“Just the first stage of mor­bidity?” The rose hedge had end­ed. They were passing one of thoseneglected cemeteries which arestill to be found throughout Don­caster county. Its fence had fall­en; rank weeds grew high amongits flat tombstones. "Here’s a goodplace for a morbid person to rest,”said Rose.“I don’t need another rest"Jerry was peevish."You’ve got to take another rest,anyhow, if you want to stay withme,” she calmly replied, "for Ineed one.”A manifest deception, yet It suc­ceeded. After what had befallenhim—bo til what she knew and whathe hadn't yet told her—the rest would be welcome. Across that neglected buryingground she indicated a table-liketomb standing farthest from the turnpike. There she seated herself,long legs dangling amid the weeds, and there he sat beside her. He turneo.Very pretty. She made him askof his own good sense whether itwas worth while to pursue any long­er this wild goose chase.He had never had anything buthis hunch to justify his accusationof fraud regarding the SHnn policy.Wherever he turned, wherever hewent, the evidence supported his;superior's contention.Better to quit while a little of his money remained in his pocket.

It runsalong the other road to Americus.We call it Bruner's Creek.”“Before I jumped off that cliffthis morning,” said Jerry, "I hada dive or two into the lake overthere ..."‘’Break O’ Day Lake.”"Yes. Well, I found out some­thing. I found an outlet It’s un­derground. The rocks must slopethe other way down there, and thewater's tunneled them.”"What of It?”“Don’t you see? If that couldbe enlarged—that outlet—the orediggings might be drained.”She looked away, her lips parted,her brown eyes on the distance.But she shook her head. "Thatore mine has swallowed enough ofmy family. I'm the last. It's notgoing to get me.”"Sure not You get It.”“No. It can't be done. The wa­ter's not the trouble. The thingthat killed my grandfather was theore itself.

It wasn't the kind that it paidto use in the furnaces.” She had touched the tomb withtanned fingers when she mentionedit. Jerry put out a band to claspthem. "No,” said Rose again, but now she was speaking of that attemptedcontact He looked at the fingers thusdenied him. They were near the stone's half obliterated inscription.

These evolutions were eagerly ob­ served by a passenger seated inside the bus, who, aa th father proceeded to dismount with his third offspring, exclaimed: "Lumnw, ’e must ’ave a nest up there!” An English soldier and a German prisoner were sitting together in the desert. Th e Englishman asked: "What will you do when the war is ended?” "Oh.” replied the German, "1 will have a trip on my bicycle all around Germany.” "Yes,” answered the Englishman, "but what will you do in the after­ noon?” than a year lateY the masses over­subscribed a $300,000,000 issue. Inthe Third War Loan in 1941, theGovernment asked for $600,000,000and the people answered with $730,- 000,000. Later, the Fourth War Loan campaign was launched for $600,000,000, but so fast did the people subscribe that the objective was raised to $900,000,000. The people have loaned willingly to the Government over $2,157,000,000 in this war. In other words, the mass­ es have been actually eager to lend money to the Govenment . for warpurposes. 8 Likewise, the same story can be told about the people’s attitude to­ wards spending for war purposes, n 1940-1941, the total war <jost reached $1,431,000,000 and in the comparable period of the first Wor­ ld War, 1915-1916, it was only $227,- 000,000. This year the total ex­ penditures of the nation arc estim­ ated to be $3,900,000,000. In other worths, the masses have actually eager to spend money for war pur­ poses. In face of the small population in this huge territory, yet about 600,- 000 men will be under amp this year and about 5,000,000 workers will be available to produce total national wealth of about six and a half bil­ lion dollars. It means that each person in industry or agriculture will turn out an average of at least $1200 in products. On the other side of the national ledger, the country’s needs in this year of war will consume about $3,900,000,00. Since the ordinary revenues are ex­ pected to reach only $2,050,000,000, the budgetary deficit will be about $1,850,000,000. Nevertheless, it can be reported that, on account of the sound fin­ ancing policy of the authorities, Canada’s economic and financial position is still a favorable one con­ sidering the fact that it is about the only nation in the whole world today producing mor« than its national re­ quirements. Of course, the people of Canada will have lower standards of living and even hardships as the cost of this war pyramids up and up, but all these figures of billions of dollars are possibly meaningless to the man-in-the-street unless he is able to use a proper yardstick to measure, to compare, and to trans­ late them into terms of everyday understanding of the tide of events which are now flowing back and forth so rapidly in th® present act­ ivities of the war. There are three things to be tak­ en into account by the man-in-the- street in Canada at the present time in order to understand these mattlrs of finance or economics in this war. First, there been no long­ standing or severe regimentation of life in this country’s war effort in comparison with what has taken place 4n other countries in recent years because Canadians as a whole have not only been willing but even eager to pay the price that victory demands. Second, widespread publicity has been given to the facts that Great Britain's total xpenditure in the fiscal year will be 5,286,000,000 pounds Stirling, or $21,144,000,000, PARLIAMENTARY TEMPOINCREASINGIt is apparent in usually well-in­formed quarters along Parliament Hill that so much work still re­ mains to be done that the exact end of the present exciting session can­ not be foretold accurately by any­ one, though attempts have been made to speed up the debates lately. After the debates on the amend­ ment to the National Resources Mobilization Act and the budget, the legislators must consider hi de­ tail all estimates and reports of var­ ious important committees, includ­ ing radio, defence regulations, war costs, reconstruction, etc. There is no doubt that many developments in the nation’s capital may unfold themselves in the coming weeks that will create , intensely interesting news for the man-in-the-street throughout Canada. WHOLE-HEARTEDLY WITH RUSSIA An extremely important declara­ tion has been made by Premier Mackenzie King in the House of Commons in referring to the Gov­ ernment's attitude towards Russia’s great fight against our common en­ emies. "This being the anniversary of the attack upon Russia by the Germans,” declared Premier King, “I think perhaps it would be appro­ priate for me to say on behalf of this House of Commons and on be­ half of the people of Canada how great has been our admiration of the magnificent fight which the Russians have put up during the past year and the resistance which they have shown and to have that coun­ try know how whole-heartedly we are with her forces in this conflict. "Moreover, upon the suggestion of -jthe C.C.F. leader, M. J. Coldwell, the Prime Minister agreed that a communication to that effect should be sent to the Russian Govern­ ment. SECURITY OF THE NATION ABOVE ALL Of all the statements made in Parliament by the various ministers in regard to military service over­ seas, none was more striking than that by the Minister of National Defence, Hon. J. L. Ralston, who emphasized in simple language that if the voluntary system should fail at any moment there must not be any delay in using the system of conscription. "This is Canada’s war, wherever it is being fought,” he emphasized strongly and at another point he stressed that “the security of the nation is more important than national unity,” indicating that there can be no unity if there is no Can­ ada. PRICE OF VICTORY Although some time has passed since the national budget was an­ nounced in the nationa’s capital, yet the new tax and borrowing plan of the Governemt is easily and by far the most popular topic of conver­ sation of the day along Parliament Hill because never in the history of Canadh have the people not only been called upon for ao formidable effort but well-informed observers backstage are inclined to believe that the last chapter in the whole story of thia nation’s herculean fin­ ancial and economic task fa not told as yet or is incomprehensible at this stage of the war. These observers note the rapidity with which the war situation has changed of recent weeks the nature of the danger itself, the actual magnitude of this small nation's ef­ fort in comparison with the last World War undertaking, and the re­ sources which are available to carry on and to win this war, with the **11- impcrUnt fioint for everyone to bear in mind that the Government seems to be extremely anxious to employ sound financial and economic meth­ ods in this struggle. Indeed, when all these facts are put together, the record of Canada in this respect fa surprising in view of the small population in this land. The people or Canada have been not only willing to lend and bo spend whatever price must be paid for vic­ tory but the masses have even been eager to do so. It is an amazing record in this respect and it provides dependable evidence which proves the remarkable extent of this coun­ try’s contribution to the collective war effort of the democracies- Canadians have been more than willing to lewd for victory.

Gold Medallist, and MarshallDeans, Paris (left). Silver Medallist, accompanied by W.C. Barrie of Galt, are seen ready to board a plane commencing the valu­ able trip that was offered as first ana second prizes. Time beingan important factor to agriculturalists, they elected to travel byair and within nine days they visited such points as Winnipeg, Portage Ln Prairie, Regina, Vancouver and Lethbridge. One of the highlights of their journey was the stop off at Portage LaPrairie where they participated in the Manitoba Provincial Plow­ing Match, June 24th. At experimental stations they visited and at meetings they attended, they were afforded the opportunity of exchanging andstudying new ideas, particularly labour-saving devices and otheraids to greater efficiency on the farm. The trip was arranged byMr. J. A. Carroll, Manager of the Ontario Plowmen's Association. Plowing Matches which are conducted by local branchesthroughout the country, play an important part in the productionof food for war, for they encourage the better plowing and cultivation of the land so essential for maximum production. that Federal revenue in this year of war in the United States will reach the huge figure of $23,610,000,0u0 but there will be still a deficit of $39,800,000,000 that must be rais­ ed by borrowing, and others indicat­ ing war expenditures of almost in- comprehensive scales for the man- in-thestreet to digest in offering comparison of this nation’s cost with those of other countries. How­ever. it must be pointed out here that speaking or writing glibly of such matters in teirrri of figures running into billions of dollars are not bring­ ing much light to the average per­ son unless there is a clear under­ standing of the significance of these figures, a simple explanation of the depreciated currencies of other coun­ tries, expression)! disclosing the pro­ portion of these coasts to the national income of the land, reports of the amounts obtai ned by lend-lease ar-' rangements, figures of the exact amounts borrowed abroad or obtain- td as gifts and statements of the wide disparities of population. When these facts are properly and fairly analysed, the extent of Canada's contribution to the collective war effort of the democracies not only bears comparison to the other allies but it even overshadows others. Third, Canada h^s been employ­ ing rteadily and regularly sound fin­ ancing methods in this war, paying as much as possible by taxation and allowing as little a* possible to be Vice-Regal Party Visits Ford Plant W paid by borrowing. The Govern­ ment of Canada wants to avoid as much as posable burdens on future generations of debts and to reduce dangers of inflation. These things must be born in by the man-in-the-street, and though the demands for money in this year for war purposes will mean a lower standard of living, yet it a still a cheap price to pay for victory, par­ ticularly when it i« remembered that the authorities or experts along Par­ liament Hill aim to maintain as much as possible balance of the natural laws of economics and to avoid as much as possible a post-war de­ pression.

Remarkable evidence of the ex­ tent to which a large CanadiA in­ dustry can swing into line and be an important factor in producing munitions for the war effort may be gathered from an illustrated book­ let put out by Massey-Harris Com­ pany, entitled, “Implements and Munitions for Wartime Needs.” Shells of three different calibres, wings and spars for trainer planes, light and heavy bodies for transport vehicles, special mechanized equip­ ment for various branches of the services, metal fittings for aircraft, links for tank treads, are some of the implements of war which the company is producing in quantity. To meet the needs of the fighting forces for more shells, more planes and more equipment, the wheels of Massey-Harris war industries are kept turning to maximum capacity. The company has concentrated upon making shell projectiles, for which purpose three separate de­ partments, one for 25-pounders, one for 60-pounders, and one for anti­ aircraft shells, have been equipped and put into production. Modern automatic machines turn out shells four times faster than in the last war, and thousands upon thousands of shells come from these plants Grade II.—Theory, (first honors) , Ethel Crutcher, marks); Billy Warden, (pass), Jewett, Mary Shelton.

Plants Work at Capacity Pro­ ducing Armaments and Farm Equipment. The following are the results of the examinations held at S t Joseph's School of Music during the put every week. Application of the latest manufac­ turing methods has enabled Massey- Harris to produce quickly equipment for mechanized units. It makes, bodies for motor vehicles in several sizes, gun portees, trailer units for special services, many of which have seen active service in the Libyan' desert campaigns. One of the com­ pany’s plants is now operating on a 24-hour schedule and is turning out two-and-a-half times at many wings per week as were called for in tho original contract In the United States the Massey- Harris Company has been given what is reputed to be the largest contract yet awarded to a manufac­ turer in the State of Wisconsin— a contract to make tanks in large quantities for the U. S. Army. While the production of arma­ ments takes precedence, and rightly so, yet mindful of the need for farm equipment to offset the labor short­ age and the importance of vital food production programs, the Mas­ sey-Harris Company has been mak­ ing and is continuing to make tract­ ors and implements insofar as mat­ erials are made available for the purpose through the administration and control set up by the Govern­ ment, which in the best interest of our maximum war effort, has deem­ ed it necessary to curtail consider­ ably the production of farm mach­ inery.

Dent, prominent Oxford County Holstein Breeders have been designated jud­ ges of two of the four regional Hol­ stein shows to be held in Ontario this year. Mr. Innes will judge at Kemptville October 1. Mr. Dent is to officiate October 10 at Roseneath. The other two shows are at Inger­ soll, October 9, when Prof. G. E. Raithb/ will judge the cattle, and at Milton. Chief purpose of these regional "black and white” shows is to provide further competition for local and county winners. The broad principle is that animals entered at any of the four regional champion­ ship exhibitions must have been pre­viously exhibited at one of'the Hol- stein-Friesian Association-sponsored county events. The four regional shows are intended to replace the C.N.E. show, cancelled this year be­ cause of the war. NOXZEMA CRe/m 19c - 59c - 98c Tangel for Burns. Unguentine .Mentholatum Sun Tan Oil...

Tebbs, rector of S t Luke's Anglican Church, Bur­ lington, a well known after dinner speaker and! for over nine years the popular "Old Man Sunshine,” heard each morning over Radio Station C.K.O.C., Hamilton, was the special guest speaker for the occasion. He was introduced by Ki­ wanian Dr. C. A. Osborn and his subject was “The 'Peregrinations of a Parson." In h^ particularly enter­ taining and humorous manner, Rev. Mr. Tebbs held the attention of his audience and his witty stories and quotations were centered in the thought that the young soldiers were starting out on a great ad­ venture and that they should give their thanks to God that He be their aid. Kiwanian Royden G. Start on behalf of the gathering, extended a vote of thanks to the speaker at the conclusion of his address. Following the banquet the young ladies who served the supper, en­ tertained the soldiers at a dance in the Armories. Music was provided by a phonograph and records sup­ plied by Kiwanian E. H. Albrough and this affair brought the evening to a most successful conclusion. The Irishman was relating his ad­ ventures in the jungle.
