-------- ~ Synthetic Rubber -.. Production Plans Investment of $700,000,000 Necessary to Build Plants William S. Farish, president of the Standard Oil Company (New Jersey) estimated that an invest- ment of between $700,000,000 and '$800,000,000 would be neec- essary to build synthetic rubber factories capable of filling .all military and normal civilian needs of the United States, and that synthetic rubber tires for light cars coula be produced to sell for $156 a tire, k Standard Oil has alréady con- tracted to produce 206,000 short tons of rubber annually for the United States and Canadian gov- ernments, and hopes to reach this production rate by the middle of 1943 if the necessary materials for' building the factories can be obtained fast enough, Mr, Farish said. He added that since Pearl Harbor, Standard Oil has agreed to offef rubber manufacturers the use of 'its synthetic rubber patents without paying royalties until af- ter the end of the war, Canada's Part Federal authorities are devel-. oping a 'very ambitious" pro- gram for production of synthetic rubber, R. C. Berkinshaw of To- ronto, chairman oi the Wartime Industries 'Trade Board, told a meeting of the Ontario Motor League in Toronto recently, "The basic materials for syn- thetic rubber, bound to be most . suitable for tires, are available in the North American continent, (But, I believe it will be from fourteen to eighteen months be- for production on an appreciable scale can be started," he said. "Canada's part in the production of synthetic rubber is being under- taken as part of a joint program with the United States and, I believe, we will*be able to make burselves self-sufficient so far as the production of rubber is con- cerned." Hunts U-Boats Off U.S. Coast New Alaska Road Ready Within Year Interior Secretary Harold Ickes said present plans call for come pletion "within one year" of the United Stgtes-Alaska Highway. "The road will be protected from the sea.by alpine country unpassable for airplanes -for at least fifty per. cent of the time * dut to coastal fogs and storms," he said. "Along this route, trucks and tanks could move easily and . quickly in a continuous lifeline between the - United "States and Alaska." : - Looks For Greatest Gamble In History Despatches from Stockholm and Zurich quoted the editor of the Helsinki newspaper Sanomat as writing on his return from Berlin eggs in one basket for Spring offensive and that we will wit. ness the greatest gamble in his- tory." "The coming German Spring offensive dominates every- thing in Germany," the Finnish journalist wrote. "Tanks and the Luftwaffe will be thrown into battles in numbers never before .experienced." In The Garden Because grass is a cool-weather plant, any work with lawns should be started just as quickly in the Spring as. possible, experts point out. This does not mean, of course, that the soil should be worked while it is still wet, That sort of thing never helps in any kind of gardening. But once one can walk over the ground without getting shoes muddy, then the. rake can be brought into play. In both new lawns or patching, the soil should be raked fine and level. Authorities advise sowing only the highest quality of seed mixtures .and as thick as direc tions specify. To get even re- sults, it is best to make a dduble sowing, - one across and once lengthwise. Small patches can be protected from the birds by use of brush, Both new and old lawns bene- fit from rolling while the ground is still soft. Grass, like any other plant, benefits from rich soil and an annual application of fertilizer.

Luke 9:43, THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time.--Autumn,- A.D, 29, Place.--Mount Hermon, in the northern part of Palestine, On The Mountain 28, "And it came *> pass about eight days after these sayings, that he took with him Peter and John and James, and went up into the mountain to pray." Christ went up the mountain for a per- iod of noly communion with His Father in heaven, that both He and is disciples might be strengthened for new tasks, and might receive divine guidance and illumination for the days that were before them, Christ Transfigured 29, "And as he was praying, * THE : Ya, x SHOW x Music x SONG x DRAMA * A CONTRIBUTION TO CANADA'S ALL-OUT * WAR EFFORT *CFRB* J SUNDAY 8:30pm. & Ld] * O'KEEFE'S BEVERAGES LIMITED * Xk the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment be- came 'white and dazzling." The word 'transfiguration' itself is not found in any form in Luke's ac- count, but occurs in Matthew and Mark, and gives the name to this particular experience. Can we ascertain the nature of the change whi¢h was here undergone by our Lord? We seeift to be justified in saying that there was some actual physical change in our Lord's body, While emphasis is placed upon the shining of His face, it is He who was transfig- ured, as though the change they saw in his countenance was but the visible - manifestation change that had taken place in His entire body. Moses and Elijah Appear 80. "And 'behold, there talked with him two men, who were Moses and Elijah, 31. Whe" 'ap- peared in glory, and spake of his decease which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem." The importance of the death of Christ is here greatly emphasized, as it is in every other par. of the New Testament, by the fact that it formed the one major theme of conversation between these two great Old Testament characters and the Son of God. Peter's Suggestion 82. "Now Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: but when 'hey were fully awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him. 88. And it came to pass, as they were parting from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and I¢t us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah: not knowing what he said." The tabernacles were little booths or huts, such as were con- structed for the feast of Tyber- nacles, made out of branchts of trees and bushes. Peter and his fellows were so taken with the sight of the felicity they saw, that - they desired to abide on the mount with Jesus and the saints. Voice From Heaven 34. "And while he said these _ things, there came =a cloud, and overshadowed ~them: and they feared as they entered into the " DEIFIED TEACHER of a. ---- cloud." A cloud is the constant symbol, or if not always this, the accompaniment, of the divine presence, 86. "And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my Son, my chosen: hear ye him." One of the three heavenly voices which spake of Christ during His publip ministry: (1) at His baptism; (2) at His transfiguration; (8) in the Temple court, béfore His sefzure, when all was. ready for the final sacrifice. [v.3 « The Astonished Disciples 36. "And when the voice cage, Jesus 'was found alone. And they held their peace, and told no man in those days any of the things which they had seein." Luke him- self does not record the astonish- ment which these disciples knew at this hour, but Matthew does, in the words "they fell én their face and were sore afraid," which is followed by one of the most beautiful short sentences in all the New Testament, "And Jesus came and touched them and said, arise, and be not afraid." The Father's Cry 87. "And it came to pass, on the next day, when they were come down from the mountain, a great multitude met him, 38, . And behold, a man from the mul- titude cried, saying, Teacher, I beseech Thee to look upon my son; for he is mine only child: 39. And behold, a spirit taketh him, and he suddenly crieth out; and it teareth him that he foam- eth, and it hardly departeth from him, bruising him sorely, 40, And I besought thy disciples to cast it out; and they could not." First this father asked the disciples of Christ to deliver the boy, but they, to their shame, were impotent to help. Ther he asked the Lord, The Lord is never helpless, The Lord is never .lacking .in safficient strength for delivering any person from the bondage df sin, Christ Rebukes The People © 41, "And Jesus answered and said, O faithless'and perverse gen- . eration, how long shall I be with you, and bear with you? bring hither thy son." Here is a case where Jesus allows His deep feel: ing to come out in words, Pain, and disappointment wring this cry from His heart, Christ Rebukes The Demon 42. "And as he was yet a com- ing, the demon dashed him down, and tore him grievously. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father. 43. And they were all astonished at the majesty of God." How wonderful that the bondage which had so tragically kept"this boy in pain and misery should be instantly broken the moment the Lord Jesus spoke to this evil being. Christ came to save us from our sins, and from every evil power; He has always won when in conflict with evil, and He can win in your life to- day, defeating any power that has held us in bondage, bringing us into liberty and joy and strength, at once, and forever.

On their day off over a recent week-end, the eight men declared a personal war on the wolf popu- lation of the district, In two cars, the hunters were headed for a camp on Alexandria Island, sonie forty miles south of Kenora, when they sighted the wolf pack. Then the "blitz" began. Driving --on- the ice which had-a light coat< ing of snow, just enough to give tires a good grip, the cars gave chase. ! 3% x It took good driving and plenty of speed to overtake these killers of the forests. and to keep them from getting on the small islands which spot the Lake, of the Woods. and so elude the hunters. Bill Cameron, airways agent at Ken- ora, was driver of the car with the airmen. He: took only one glance at the speedometer whigh showed eighty-five milés an hour and decided ta keep his eyes on where he was going. Driver of the other car was Bill Thom and in it were the men from the town of Kenora. ~ When a wolf was run down and cornered, the hunters shot him -and then took after another, until nine wolves in all were. accounted for, Apart from the many deer - and gral animals whose lives they saved, and the excitement of the chase, the hunters realized $225 Se bounty and- whatever they could: get for the skips, Detailed geological maps exist: for only 4,071 of Alaska's 584,000 square ' miles, rN NINE LIVES By Alice Grant Rosman When Samuel Penguin came to the already a cat of character. But he was aloof in the beginning. Only gradually did he unbend and permit familiarity; it. was-ap oc- casion when the first purr was noted. Here is his biography--the story of his development, of his overlordship in_the family of the London he came to know, and of the war he was to experience, Nine Lives is London past and présent; for Miss - Rosman goes -back to her own introduction to it some thirty years ago. Sam's adventures have, been many and his friends legion. He - has accepted tribute from all cor- nere of the globe, and he has taken his part in the war with the same royal fortitude. He saw his mistress in gas masks, was "introduced to an Animal Post, spent the nights of raids in shel- ters, and took soldiers, refugees and ambulance girls just as they came. In a bomb-emergency, he even shared a dugout with a dog. Sam bore the ordeal well, but the 'dog had a nervous breakdown. The best way to convey the quality of this enchanting book is to say that Alice Rosman wrote it. That it contains innumerable black-and-white drawings by.<Di- ana Thorne is to prove that it is a book of unique charm, Nine Lives , . . by Alice Grant Rosman .. .
