Moving pictures, radios, automobiles, occupy so much of ourspare tim«, we have little time formeditation or for recording ourthoughts in personal diaries. Wemodern folk have no time for writ­ing the history of our lives, our days are too full and our eveningsseem to be made for social enter­ tainment, the quiet evening at home,is that out of date, too? If We hod time to hunt through the old attics in search of ourgrandmother’s and great-grandmoth­er’s diaries, what an interesting record we would find of the exper­iences of previous _r.Jwhat a wealth of wisdom, wit and humour would be ours—all so vivid­ly passing before or mind's eye;then’s was a deeper philosophy, a calmer existence. Beautifully bound diaries still ad­orn the shelves of book stores, butif they are sold at all they are ap­ parently used as “Date Books," .forfuture engagements and any worth­while thoughts pass on into the fu­ ture unrecorded.

In other words, though it is undoubtedly a serious and complicated problem in some respects, yet it is expected that this problem will be solved by more and more co-ordinated control in tune with the conditions, particularly solving the grave problem whereby there is a sharp shortage of man­ power in certain directions, such as some factories, farms, forests, fish­ eries, etc., and at the same time a large available reservoir in others, such as in many non-essential or non-war undertakings and work. HIGH COST OF WAR The man-in-the-street throughout Canada is enabled to estimate the high cost of this modem war if this information is properly digested. It is reported ir. the capital that, between April and October of 1942 alone, Canada spent on war about $1,221,- 736,997 as against only $607,397,- 939 in the same period of 1941 and the ordinary costs for that same time in 1942 were $309,850,470 as against $218,200,458 in that period of 1941, with these expenditures in­ cluding. such items as payments to Provinces on account of their giving |iy> certain taxatioin rights, interest public debt, payments for pen­ sions and national health, subsidiM One of the most recent graduates from the C.W.AXL Basic Training Centre, Kitchener, was Private E. F. (Joy) Armstrong, daughter of Brigadier F. Logie Armstrong, O.B.E., officer commanding Military District No. 3. Private Armstrong is shown here with her father as she received congratulations from Hon. Albert Matthews, Lieut-Governor of Ontario, who was present during the graduation ceremonies. Private Armstrong is presently attached to the Kitchener Centre where she is engaged in clerical work. She is one of the large number of girls who are enlisting in the C.W.A.C. to relieve able-bodied men for more active duties. and so forth. However, it is^recog- nized that the Govemmcnt'stfeceipts from various sources were qaite high in that same period. NATION-WIDE SURVEY In the midst of all tense war news, it must be reported that there is a group of oustanding men in Canada with the proper foresight who are working with great zeal and much enthusiasm to plan for the time when peace will again prevail after victory has been achieved by tlie United Nations in this war. It is disclosed in Ottawa that the national committee of reconstruction of which Dr. Cyril James, principal of McGill University in Montreal, is the head, has requested the Canada- Newfoundland Education Associa­ tion to conduct a nation-wide survey of education throughout Canada since W hen the huge shell-filling plant came to bis town, Charles Hunter got to thinking about the critical shortage of housing . . . and about the two large cottages he owned. It wouldn’t cost much to mod­ ernize and sub-divide them to make comfortable homes for four families. He talked it over with his bank manager, who extended him a $600 loan. With the money, Hunter not only converted his cottages but took part of the loan, along with some of bls rental income, to remodel another house to accommodate eight single individuals. With the aid of the bank Hunter helped to pro­ vide urgently needed homes for war workers. He has now paid off all but $100 of the loan. A very smkll amount paid out for interest has thus enabled him to more than double bia former revenues. Such modest, highly useful loans typify the con­ tributions that the banks make to Canadian enter­ prise. The above story is an actual case—only the name has been changed. it is expected that this will bc an important factor in planning the “new’’ ordter” after the war. It has even been decided to open a bureau of education in Ottawa in line with this significant new plan or pro­ gramme. SOMETHING TO REMEMBER While lately fortunes of war allow a much broader and more compre­ hensive outlook for the United Na­ tions in the period ahead than on any previous occasion in recent months, yet now this veteran ob­ server must direct attention to the noteworthy fact that behind the headlines there is an impressive les­ son for the man-in-the-street in Can­ ada in the relationship between the latest war news and the loud, contin­ uous clamor and importunate de­ mands for a "second front”, though this lesson is something which could have been derived earlier from reading carefully certain impartial observations of this column in recent months.. Behind -the latest news there is a clear-cut lesson to be remembered by the man-in-the-street. in Canadi that self-restraint and patience must prevail in this war as the leaders of the United Nations endeavour to cap­ ture and to retain the initiative until complete victory has been won. It means that only temporary good fortunes of war do not offer any excuse to relax or to slacken in the maximum effort. It means that in this war there exists constantly pos­ sibilities of new unexpected prob­ lems, unavoidable dangers, errors, questions, issues, controversies and frustrations. It is a time of crisis when such great and many perplexing prob­ lems exist for* the political and mili­ tary leaders of the United Nations that the man-in-the-street can serve his country best if he doe not readily, form rash and final opinions, nor easily find fault with war activities before all the facts are disclosed. Moreover, when it ia born in mind that the Government cannot always disclose information of what is going on or what will go on for obvious reasons of secrecy, it must not be interpreted by the man-in-the-street as mere official silence, apathy or in­ ertia Likewise, for the same reason the Government cannot always ex­ plain certain actions at every turn of events or at the moment when events may move very fast in time of crisis or stress in this globular war. Indeed, in referring to the "second front’.’ case. Premier Win­ ston Churchill declared recently: "I must say quite frankly that I hold it perfectly justifiable to deceive the enemy even if at the same time your people are for a while misled.” In short, the latest war activities *nd surprises indicate that the man- in-the-street in Canada must realize once and for all time that final opin­ ions cannot be formed without know­ ing all the fac> Without knowing the complete official story fault finding i. not justified. In the same course of reasoning, it must be rea­ lized that the political leader, in wartime without distinction of party cannot decide, nor act upon mere imputeea, sentimental feelings, and pressure of public opinion in re- «»rd to large-scale offensives or other military measures agumrt the enemies, with uninstructed pressureof public damor that may be »n«- tinMM quite reckless or wanton, even if well meant, being given seeon- dfcry consideration to the primary importance of the consent and prac­ tical direction of experienced, in­ actions of their leaders before nil ithe facta.are revealed which some­times cannot be done at the momentfor such reasons as prevailed andpreceded the latest large-scale offen­sive of the United Nations.— (Re­production Prohibited.)World’# Change of SceneryThe great bard of Avon likensthe world to a stage, with its exite and entrances, upon which we enact life’s scenes. The coming of Winter has been from time immemorial, the dramatic changing of scenery on the world's stage. Whole continents are obliged to shift their scenery and the playeYs to adjust themselves to the new act upon the stage. How­ ever, despite the attending storms of winter, life goes on in its altered conditions, for life remains life, and its passion for survival is such that all its strength and resourcefulness will, in times of stress, bc used for its preservation. There are many travel-loving folk who migrate South, as do some birds, to escape the dramatic change of winter, but indeed, it is not at all certain that the non-im­ migrants faref worse than their travel-loving friends. No country is a paradise for anyone, andaaften an Iescape from mere cold may mean en- I countering worse perils, such as hur- I i ricane, floods or epidemics not for­getting accidents en route. Where-ever we go we meet up with dis­comfort and hardship because theyare a part of life just as comfortand> joy are. The scale of life mustbe balanced and it is up to the indi­vidual which way the scale willturn.Every winter small birds in my­riads migrate, but so do hawks—and we may querry as Hamlet did, whether it is always a wise plan to try to escape dangers of which one is aware, it in so doing, one is li­ able “to fly to others that we know not of.” The winter storms, the rains and snows, the feeble but acceptable rays of kindly sunshine, are displays of the same forces which create un­ der different conditions, the melt­ ing loveliness of Springtime, the radiance of summer and the ex­ otic beauty of Autumn. We have to learn to appreciate the patent miracle of these changes for it beautifully manifests that the "Lord of the Universe makes life at its worst, bearable—as He makes it, at its best, delectable.” Betty~“Do you know you're wear­ ing your wedding ring on the wrong finger?" Ethel—"Yes, I married the wrong man.” Weekly Newspaper#InvaluableEveryone knows that our WeeklyCommunity Newspapers throughoutCanada are performing an importantfunction. They are giving fine ser­vice in local news and are beingclosely read by the people of th®community. This, service cannotbe got through the large metropoli­tan newspapers. Alfred P. Sloan of General Motors Corporation once made the statement that the com­ munity weekly was the most thor­ oughly read consumer’s newspaper in the United States. A large Can­ adian Food corporation also paid a splendid compliment to the town weekly newspapers when it said that its company had come to the conclusion that the small community paper offered a most effective adver­ tising medium from, the standpoint of the country district consumer. It has been proved that tha resulting sales per capita are far greater when advertising campaigns are conducted, than those obtained from similar campaigns in daily papers in larger centres. The cost of ad­ vertising is also much less in the weeklies. The main factor in holding sub­ scribers and1 advertising is READER INTEREST, and a newspaper is judged on that score. formed military advisers. Nevertheless, since the beginning of this war there has been a steady and sharp tendency by "armchair generals” or “typewriter strate­ gists’ to prod the leaders of the Uni­ ted Nations, particularly in recent months on the subject of a “second front”, and they have been obliged frequently to answer with great caution and prudence such clamor and fault findipg, though now it is obvious that this clamor was un­ necessary and this latest fault find­ ing was unjustified. In order to carry out the latest large-scale offensive in North Africa, three main elements entered the grand strategy and these factors must be understood by the man-in-the- street as an invaluable lesson for future reference. First, before the Actual time of the undertaking arrived there had to be made arrangements to .. contrive the scheme or plan of campaign so that it could be carried out with exact precision and accuracy. Second, there had to be preconcert or prev­ ious understandings with the other allied nations. Third, there had to be absolute secrecy so that the fall force of the sudden attack would be entirely unexpected. Though the large-scale offensive in North Africa, sometimes called the Battle of Egypt, really started Octo­ ber 23, yet it has now been re­ vealed that British divisions which reinforced the 8th Army for this battle left England in May or early June and a large number of Amer­ ican "Sherman tanks” and other powerful modern weapons of war were placed on board ship to sail direct to Suez in the early day. of July by decision of President Roose­ velt taken on June 20. Briefly, it may not be generally realized, but it is a fact that between taking the decision for ’ reinforcing the Middle East for the great operations and the reinforcements coming into ac­ tion a period of five months or more was required. Second, in face of enemy propa­ ganda efforts to spread stories of alleged friction and ill-feeling be­ tween the allied nations, yet there was concert and harmony in plans of operation, with the latest large- scale offensive finding them all liv­ ing up to this standard of close co­operation. American and British j staff officers worked together day and night as a "band of brothers” just as there was complete unity be­ tween President RooseveR and Prem­ ier Churchill or the War Cabinets of both nations. Likewise, Premier Churchill has indicated that all promises to Russia have been made in writing or given across the table in recorded conversations with the Soviet representatives, with the dis­ closure that there was satisfaction in the statement of Joseph Stalin when ha said “there followed an­ other step, the visit to Moscow of the British Prime Minister. Mr. Churchill, in the coure of which complete understanding was reached ocncerning relations between the two countries.* Third, the latest large-scale offen­ sive was accomplished with complete secrecy and tactical surprise for the enemy because it was carried out in such a way that the enemy could not even guesa where, when or how it waa to be made. Behind these facta there is a dear­ cut and invaluable lemon for theman-in-the-sRjrecit in Canada and it! is that in time of crisis no one should form readily rash, final opin- I ions, nor easily find fault with war | You’ll never be satisfied with anything else once you see RINSO WHITENESS MOTHER.- How do you do it,’ Ruth?Jenny’s dress makes my little girl’s look dingy.

We Must Go On There is no question of following Bernard Shaw’s suggestion of a ten-year moratorium on scientific developments. The pace is set. We must go on. Our only hope is, first of all, to point out where weaknesses exist and to suggest what might be done from a scientific viewpoint to improve conditions. We are not short of fundamental research wor­ kers, but they are men of vision who work apart and for the most part are not the'right temperament to carry through their development and see that the best use is made of it. Such work must be done by a group of scientists trained espec­ ially for this work. The research scientist is in every way an artist. The practical or tech­ nical scientist can be classified with the good teachers and politic­ ians, and this class of men should be encouraged to extend their activ­ ities outside as well as inside indus­ trial organizations. Winnifred Malt­ by has expressed tfie writer’s mean­ ing very beautifully: "The poets and artists and men of vision are the runners who leap ahead untram­ meled towards perfect beauty. In their running sometimes they hold u, a mirror that the world may cauh a glimpse of beauty. The teach*ro and politicians are th>d«e who h«»e been touched by ’pity, the deadliest enemy of art’. Thoy cannot leap untrammeled but must turn bank to help the weaker traveller*, and bring them forward on their journey toward* beauty.' Progress does not lie with the artist.

RUSSELL THOMSON I .PASSES SUDDENLY Death with startling suddenness claimed "an esteemed and widely known resident of Ingersoll on Wednesday morning, Dec. 9th, in the person of G. Russell Thomson. The late Mr. Thomson who had been a valued employee of the Mor­ row Screw and Nut Co. Ltd., for 22 years, was stricken with a heart attack shortly after arriving at work and passed away before medical aid could be called. Born in Ingersoll 62 years ago, the late Mr. Thomson had spent the greater part of his life here. He was a member of the Ingersoll Baptist Church and of the Malahide Lodge, No. 140, AjF. and A.M., also of the Aylmer Lodge, No. 94, I.O.O.F., at Aylmer, and his passing has occasioned deep regret and came ns a distinct shock to his scores of friends.

Newman Funeral Home, to the Aylmer Cemetery, where inter­ ment will be made. A pretty autumn wedding was sol­emnized Saturday evening, November28th, 1942, at St. Mary’s AnglicanChurch, Windsor, when DorothyMae, daughter, of Mr. and Mrs. David J. Jewhurst, of Wyandotte Street, East Windsor, formerly of Ingersoll, was united in marriage to Raymond Harold, son of Mr. and Mrs. Win. Dell of Essex. The rector, Rev. H. M. Langford, performed the ceremony and Mr. Tarletone presided at the organ. Master Billy Fellows, boy chorister, was the so-‘ loist and rendered beautifully the' number, “Because,” preceding the cermony, and during the signing of the register, “OrPromise Me.” The winsome bride, given in mar­ riage by her father, was lovely in her floor-length gown of white net. with satin roses appliqued’ on the skirt, ivory satin shirred bodice, sweetheart neckline and sleeves. Hei floor-length veil of illus­ ion, fell softly from a sweetheart headdress and her only cwgament was a single strand of pearls’, the gift of the bridegroom, and she carried a Colonial bouquet of cream roses and white ’mums. Miss Jeanne Jewhurst was her sister’s maid of honour and wore a becoming gown of yellow chiffon over taffeta with shoulder veil of yellow. She also carried a Colonial bouquet of bronze and Talisman roses. The bridesmaids were Misses Marie and Ruth Luno, twin cousins of the bride, wearing lovely frocks in pink and blue re­ spectively with brocaded satin bod­ ices and) floor-length net skirts with matching shoulder veils and carried Colonial bouquets of pink chrysan­ themums and pink roses. Little Shan­ non Jewhurst, niece of the bride, was the dainty little flower girl in her floor-length frock of white lace over pink taffeta with a lace rosette tied under her chin with white satin ribbons. She carried a bouquet of white babx 'mums and pink roses. The bride’s attendants all wore single strands of pearls, the gift of the groom. Mr. Harley Dell was his brother's best man and the ushers were Kennetth Kerr and M. David Jewhurst, twin brother of the bride. Following the ceremony a recept­ ion for seventy-five guests was held at the home of the bride's parents, where Mrs. Jewhurst, in a smart gown of black crepe with diamond clips, and purple orchid corsage, and Mrs. Dell, mother of the groom, wearing wine crepe with gold acces­ sories and corsage of pink and white baby ’mums, assisted the bridal couple in receiving. A dainty buffet luncheon was served by girl friends of the bride. The beautifully appointed bride's table was centred with a lovely three-tier wedding cake. Later the happy couple left on a trip to Toronto and pointe east. For travelling the bride chose a frock of black crepe with gold se­ quin butterfly trim, black sable trim­ med coat and black accessories. On their return they will make their home in Windsor, carrying with them the best wishes of a host of friends for a happily wedded life. Guests were present from soil, Woodstock, Fort Erie, Detroit, Pontiac, Mich., Mt. enta, Mich., and Windsor, Prior to her marriage the bride was honoured at showers given her by her twin cousins, Misses Marie •nd Ruth Luno, of Argyle Road, Windsor, and by Mrs. Earl Church of Bruce Avenue, Windsor, aunt of groom. levelling up of the race, so that there may be fewer who lag behind.

At this sea­ son of happiness and cheer, every­ one feels the need of snapshots which will preserve the occasion and keep Its memory fresh. Most Christmas activities center about the tree, bright with lights, ornaments, and tinsel. Naturally you want the tree to show up well in your pictures. But It’s a rather dark subject, and unless you lake a few special precautions in Mghting. It may come out too black in the prints. To plctCd the tree most effec- s lively, use three photo lights instead of two. Concentrate the light from * on the front of the tree. —rrttfri place the third bulb behindthe tree, with the reflector turned so that all the light shines on the wall. This ’ Right outlines the treeclearly, -Hiibe the front lights help show detail and decorations. Sometimes a silhouette of the tree Is Interesting. To obtain this, place all the light behind the tree, with a reflector to direct it on the wall. Thepicture above was taken with a short "time" exposure, the camera being placed on a firm support, with an or­ dinary 100-watt bulb concealed be­ hind the tree. If a large photo bulb Is used, snapshot exposures can be made, even with an inexpensivecamera. Small Christmas tree lights may be left on when the picture is taken, to add to the effect But never allowbrilliant, "raw” light from a photo bulb to shine into the lens. Turn the photo light or move the camera so that the lens is properly shaded.Of course, your Christmas pic­ tures should Include more than just the tree. Show the folks wrapping gifts, decorating the doorway, put­ ting ornaments on the tree. Picturethe children hanging their stock­ ings, writing letters to Santa Claus, and peering out the window on Christmas Eve to see if he is com­ing, Make sure, too, that you getpictures as they find the gifts Christmas morning . . . and picture older members of the family as gifts are unwrapped. Take your Christmas pictures asif you were filming a movie—try to make them tell the complete story of Christmas. A full record of this sort Is far more satisfying, and addsgreatly to the family album or “pic­ture history book.” 413 John van Guilder L O N D O N A R E N A T. N.

Hills, R.C.N., Was Home On Leave There was great rejoicing in the Hills’ home on Carroll street, last Tuesday, December 1st, when Bill, son of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Hills, arrived home on leave. Rev. Hills is chaplain with H.M. C.S. “Cornwallis”, (Halifax, N. S.) He remained in Ingersoll until Sun­ day, when he went to Toronto to preach in his old parishes. He took the morning service at St. Barnabas Church, where he was formerly rec­ tor, and where Rev. Frank McMuL kin is at present carrying on the good work. On Sunday evening. Rev. Hills took the service at St. Paul's Church, on <Bloor street, where he was formerly a curate. We all know how splendidly his voice would fill St Paul’s, for it is remarkable for its strength and quality.' Before accepting the post as chap­ lain on H.M.C.S. Cornwallis, Rev. Hills was Lieut. Chaplain over the cadets in Toronto. Rev. Hills is spending half of his leave with Bishop Rennison, whose son is a prisoner of war: It is ru­ moured that Bill has already seen action at sea, but he doesn’t say much on that score. He was in the convoy that escorted H..M.S. “Queen Elizabeth” part of the way when Bob, Swallow, Bob. Arkell and Don. Mac­ kenzie were on board. He expects on his return to be stationed in Scotland. Rev. Hills wishes to tell the home folk that he has met many Ingersoll lads who having joined! up in the local R.C.N.V.R. divisions, have arrived on the East Coast. He de­ clares he is proud of the Ingersoll seamen, they are men of “guts” he tells us. He asks us to write to our sailor boys frequently and to cheer them up because they do get home­ sick, but to be sure and keep back news that might upset them and which they can do nothing to help with. Rev. Hills keeps a “Friendship Log,’’ which runs into seven hun­ dred, and letters have come to him from every fcuarter of the' sea battle front where Canadian lads are en­ gaged. He says: “1 shall welcome any enquiries that might be made about any Ingersoll or Woodstock lads, who are serving in the R.C.N. V.R. on the east coast Letters should bear the following address: Rev.

Waiting until he thought the newcomer was near enough, he challenged: “Halt! Who goes there?" “Friend!” came the prompt reply in a ‘well-oiled’ voice. “Advance and be recognized,” he ordered. From the darkness came the angry retort: “What do you think I am-a bloom­ ing duck!

Our war Industries your vwiiches. The Mixing BowlBy ANNE ALLANHydro Homo EcononihtPREVENTING THE LAG PERIODOF THE DAY Hello Friends! Talking to Miss Ruth Ransom of the Department of Pensions and National Health, we asked how nutrition is being ap­ plied to industry. Her encouraging reply was that “Management and labour are keeping up and increasing vital war production due to .a newer knowledge of nutrition." The in­ creasing war tempo makes demands on all—necessitating better health care.Miss Ransom is one of the Gov­ ernment nutritionists who have been visiting war plants and collect­ ing data about the food of workers. As a result, they know what work­ ers eat and from questionnaires as well, they have found the reason v for the lag periods between thcHMome and School Association hours of 10 and 12 in the morning, and 4 and 5 in the afternoon. It's lack of proper nutrition! If 50,000 Canadian workers were not producing at their best for even one day, it would mean a loss in production equivalent to two bomb­ ing planes. Think of it! Inquiries made of thinking men in many of these organizations showed' that the remedy was an official short rest period, at which time those who cat inadequate breakfasts — and they are many—maybe helped by enjoy­ ing a sandwich, some fruit, or a bottle of milk. With these facts in mind, we sug­ gest that the busy homemaker pre­ vent her lag period by a short rest and a gtass of milk. Secondly, that she be more than ever on her toes to provide adequate daily table­ meals and carried lunches for her | family. NUTRI-THRIFT LUNCHES Balance these lunches with break­ fasts consisting of stewed fruit, cold baked fruit or fruit juices, whole cereal with mrik, dry toast with but­ ter and jam, and a cup of hot bev­ erage—occasionally sausagies, cod fish balls, etc. Tomato Juice Scrambled Egg and Onion Sandwich Gingerbread Custard Graham Wafers Cocoa in Thermos •Scones Raw.

N. tuck-ins. 60 pair seamen's stockings, 15 aero caps, 5 khaki pullovers. Civilian Comfort*—12 khaki pil­ lows, 17 small quilts, 2 layettes. (96 pieces), 21 pair boys’ pyjamas, 7 pair mitts, 2 pair socks, 5 girls' units, 12 year skirt and 2 blouses in each; 5 girls’ sweaters, 15 pair panties, 10 women’s nightgowns. 5 dresses, 10 aprons, 39 large quilts, 3 afghans. Some very splendid donations have been received this month and for all of these we would express our sin­ cere appreciation. The North Oxford Patriotic Society brought in 2 lay­ ettes, 6 quilts and a large assortment of clothing. Salford Unit and Nors­ worthy Chapter, I.O.D.E.. donated some very lovely and useful quilts. Ora Circle, King’s Daughters, four blankets; SL Paul's Young People’s Society, knitted afghan; Room 2 of tl^e Sacred Heart School, 2 afghans and 1 quilt, (the boys too assisted in knitting the afghan squares), and clothing, toys and books from Beach- ville Unit. Three lovely boxes, packed and ready to mail overseas, were don­ ated to ua with the request that they be sent to some boys who might not receive boxes. We felt that the best way to comply .with this request was to send these boxes to Lieut. W. C.ilson with an accompanying let­ ter asking him to distribute the boxes. This has been done and later on we will probably hear from Lieut. Wilson. From headquarters we have been instructed that socks are to be made only eleven inches from top to heel, this is being done in order to save wool which at present is very diffi­ cult to obtain. Invoices for the month amount to $208.85—For wool, local, $71.^5; materials, local, $42.08; materials, headquarters, $92.90; operating, $2.64—$208.85.

Q. —Does the ban on cuffs include the trousers of young boys? A-—Ko, boys* trousers may have cuffs, but the maximum turnup should not be more than one and one-half inches. Q —My daughter got behind in her studies and has been receiving special tutoring. Her instructor re­ cently increased the rate from $1,50 to >2.00 an hour. Isn’t this breakingthe price ceiling?A.—No. Educational services areexempt from the price ceiling.Q.—I have lost “My Price CeilingRecord,” the little blue book in whichI was keeping track of my prices.Gould I get another one!A.—Yes indeed. Anyone wanting “My Price Ceiling Record" can have a copy by sending their request to the above address. Q.—Our club entertains members of the armed forces at Sunday night socials. Could we get extra supplies of sugbi and coffee? A.—No. extra rations are not al­ lowed where organizations are serv­ ing light lunches, which cannot be considered as meals. Q.—I paid $1.50 for a bag of po­ tatoes in October. Last week I was charged 1.75 for the same kind, quality'and grade. Isn't this a viola­ tion of the price ceiling? A.—Not necessarily. If your re­ tailer was charging $1.75 for pota­ EFFECTIVE NOW This oction is taken in line with the Government's declared determi­ nation to stabilize living costs on a basis that is fair to all. It is a developing attack on the menace of inflation which arises out of wartime conditions. The prices of tea, coffee and oranges are now lowered by official order. Plans for reduction in the price of milk to the consumer are also under way and will be announced in the near future. The items chosen have been selected because of their important place in the weekly budget of every home in Canada. TEA anddCOFFEE Effective now—Hie retail price uf tea breduced by l*0c per pound and the retail price of coffee by 4c per pound below the recent lawful ceiling prices. The table below indicates how the reduction of 10c per pound applies to less-than-pound packages; and is for purposes of illustration only.

Upon the quantity of essential vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, proteins, etc., contained in the war worker’s lunch depends his or her energy and stamina, and—the scale of production! When a man or wo­ man feels "starved" after a half-day on the job, the sight of a carelessly packed lunch-box, or bedraggled looking sandwiches is no stimulus to to appetite. Sandwiches should be made of rfhole wheat or brown bread. Fill­ ings should be different in each sand­ wich if possible, for the sake of variety and balanced nutrition. A chopped vegetable filling might be used in one sandwich and meat, cheese or egg combination in an­ other. Fillings should always be moist. Meat from a left-over roast may be ground and mixed with pickles or salad dressing. Fresh bread should always be used for lunch-box sandwiches as they must .stay packaged for some time before they are eatqn- Raw fruits and vegetables are a •’must" in any worker’s lunch-box. Apples and oranges are an import­ ant source of vitamins and minerals that every worker needs. Radishes, celery, raw carrots and lettuce can be wrapped in waxed paper. Veget­ able salads may also be used when packed in tightly covered containers which can easily be carried in the lunch-box and thrown away after APPOINTED PRINCIPAL MATRON, NURSING SERVICES Miss Dorothy MacRae, newly appointed Principal Matron, Nursing Services, CENTRE, with Misi E.

There needs the under­current of intelligence and deepfeeling to convqy the inerrable qaul-ity of language. Our children are toomuch spoon fed these days ttf exert the sublime gifts of creative art; instead of having to think and create they have these things done for them. Two invaluable text books on poetic appreciation are Lafcadio Hearns “Books and Habits", and Robert Graves’. “Poetic Unreason”: these should be on every High School curriculum. I remember Ellen Terry in her memoirs telling how cheaply some of the costuming was done in herday and with Sumptuous effect. Andsumptuous effect is all right, onlythe stage divested of all flummeryand frills with its symbolism andsincere artistry is what we want inCanada.. Yes, he is called the Swanof Avon—swan signifying poet. Wehave need of more poets and betterpoetry in Canada; better diction, less slovenly enunciation; the poet is a man of vision and without vision the people perish.

One way Dr. Chases Nerve Food When “Of course, as Christians, know that the day will come, day of which Renan once spoke, the day when this cruel world, this world of blood and guile, this world of pigmies and bourgeoisie will be swept into the discard by the heroic and idealistic forces of mankind, and every nation and tribe, Israel included, will be assured free and full unfoldment of national culture and human personality." So .writes Pierre Van Paasen. No League of Nations can accom­ plish that which must be fulfilled by the light of the spirit conquering the darkness of greed and hatred. Here is the real Armageddon. Man is the battleground of good and evil. It is within our souls the ultimate victory comes and it is not so difficult, and it is not so difficult to walk in the Light; it simply requires moral cour­ age—the will to do good not for the sake of others’ opinions but from the inherent lovq in us from God. That is the leaven that works as above the status of pigmies and bourgeoisie, the love of Godl and the seeking of Truth embodied in the light of the sun and of the moon. “Look upon the rainbow and praise Him that makes it; very beautiful it is in the brightness thereof. It com- passeth the Heaven about with a glorious circle and the hands of the Most High have bended it." Hope that then is the era of re­ generation when men who were created in God’s image walk again in the Light. the That, “While Britain and the Do­ minions were building up the great armies of the Middle East, strength­ ening them in men and weapons, the East African Colonies have speeded their food production to the point where they can not only feed their own people but also send quantities of wheat, maize, tinned meat, fruit and dried vegetables for the forces long Delore ’dehydrated’ became a household word, and its output of dried carrots, cabbages potatoes, beans and paprika, which prevents such diseases as scurvey and sleeping sickness, has become a minor miracle?" That, “The Colonies arc adding weight to the toa crop bought by the British Ministry of Food for distri­ bution among the United Nations, and in 19-41 Ceylon supplied 138,- 000,000 lbs. out of a total of 487,- 000,000 lbs. bought by the Ministry of Food and that East Africa is push­ ing up its production; Nyasaland producers hoping to reach fifteen millions lbs. as compared with one million lbs. last year?'* That, “The United Kingdom buys up export surpluses from the West Indies particularly from British Gui­ ana, Trinidad and Jamaica; from Mauritius in the Indian Ocean and from the Pacific Island of Fiji?" the sur- the Col- That, “The contribution of the Colonial Empire to the larder of tht United Nations is all the more remarkable because it is plus which remains when onies have fed themselves; that in Africa and in the West Indies food production is being diversified both in large estates and small holdings, and that Malta, in the midst of battles, brought under cultivation, through inigation and intelligent crop rotation and terracing over 42,000 acres of her total of 78,000 That “The output of rubber in Ceylon has been intensified, steps having been taken to obtain the maximum possible production in East and West Africa, and. with the help of some of the Malaya plant era all types of wild rubber in East and West Africa is .being explored; and that wild rubber is likewise being tapped in British Honduras, British Guiana and Trinidad?"

SEASONS play a big role in thelives of amateur photographers who keep up-to-date with their pic­ ture making, and in just a few days we’re going to run right into the biggest and brightest of all seasons —Christmas.There’s something about Christ­ mas which makes picture making more than just a pleasant pastime. I like to think of it as an extra pleasant duty—a duty to record the memorable events of the day and the happiness we all feel. And, letme tell you it’s a thrilling moment when you capture the real Christ­ mas spirit in your snapshots. If you’re aiming for that this year —and you couldn’t have any betterobjective—try to cover Christinasjust as thoroughly as a photogra­ pher for one of the big magazines might cover the Christmas activi­ ties in your home. He’d begin with the pre-Christmas activities, wouldn’t he? Well, you can do thesame. Show the youngsters writingand mailing their letters to Santa. Peck—pictorially—into the Christ­ mas shopping, gift wrapping, and mailing. Don’t overlook the deco­ ration of the tree, and, for goodness sake, get a fine picture of the babies hanging up their stockings by thefireplace. Everything connected with Christ­ mas will make a good picture. On Christmas morning you may have to get up mighty early, but if youcan be down by the tree before thechildren burst into the room, you’ll be all set for perhaps the grandest pictures of all. Unwrapping the gifts is the high spot of activities —and you don't want to miss it photographically.Then there’s the matter of test­ ing those gifts; trying out the new toys. That’s good picture material too—and so is the Christmas dinner. To get pictures of the day’s high spots will be easy, you'll find, if you simply adhere to the principles ofgood indoor snapshot technique.You don’t need any fancy equip­ ment. Your own camera, a couple of flood lights and some handy cardboard reflectors, and several rolls of extra fast “pan” type film will make indoor snapshots possibleeven with box cameras. If youhaven’t tried any of this before, your favorite supply shop can pro­ vide you with a free folder on in­ door lighting—with some suggested lighting set-ups — and full direc­ tions for making swell indoor pic­ tures. Why not prepare for your Christ­mas pictures today? Plan your pic­ture making now, and you’ll avoid disappointments later. Good shoot­ ing—and a very Merry Christmas. 412 John van Guilder The “Loyally we It is expected that the charter TX-ill be presented in the near future.
