However, if a little extra thought and a dash of imagination go into the packing, the noon lunch hour may well be" something to antici- pate. There will be no sighs on opening the lunch box--*"The same old thing!" Sandwiches, of course, are the backbone of the school lunch; and, © with the" "seemingly 'endless array of fillings available, it is easily possible to have more than one different kind cvery day of the five, They can be made further intrigu- ing by using fancy cutters writes Ethel M. Eaton in the Christian Science Monitor. Children delight in surprises, and a nut-bread cat or a brown-bread pig will elicit squeals of pleasure. A stuffed crusted roll, too, is a wel- come change from the usual sliced- bread sandwich. The filling may be a tuna or salmon salad mixture or egg salad; finely chopped cooked ham and green pepper moistened with salad dressing is good, too. For sweet sandwiches--a school lunch should always include one_ --these fillings are tops with chil-~ dren: (1) Peana¢¥'butter, sprinkled with brown<sugar; (2) Peanut but- ter, with raspberry jam; (3) ground prunes and chopped walnuts; (4) Apple butter with graham crackers; (5) €ream cheese and chopped rai- sins or dates. Don't overlook a breads; nut bread, banana bread, orange-raisin bread, cherry bread, prune -bread, and buttered muffins are sure to find high favor, even if ordinary fillings are used. Re- member too, that deviled eggs~ carcfully wrapp&l in waxed paper --are far more entrancing than the plain hard-cooked kind. Little cakes and pies always in- trigue the young fry, When bak- ing cake or Rie, save out enough batter to make a tiny one for the lunch box. A small pie or round cake can go to school right in its tin and is easier to pack than a wedge-shaped piece which often gets miussy.

Here the waters turn violent, ctashing through the granite, roaring in ca- taract and rapid, leaping and spum- ing down the mountain until' they spread upon the low, flat plain, the llano: sixty thousand square miles of it, the north-turned base of the heart of Vengzuela. The plains "Indian of Venezuela is a-.nomad, without even the rudi- mentary agriculture of his. forest cousin, In summer, the dry season, he spears fish, and hunts the roe- buck, the gazelle, the wild pig, the - rabbit, the marauding puma. In his land, unlike the ever-drenched for- est, the seasons are divided; after the rainless summer comes winter in April: months of overwhelming downpour that flood the rivers and the streams until the plains are drowned . . , Often it is impossible even to fish in the floods; and the plains Indian will have nothing to eat except an oleaginous clay which he has rolled into balls and stored in his hut, built of the moriche palm: The clay and the water keep him barely alive until the rains cease, and the land blossoms with thorny palms, the piritu, the palma de cubija, the coarse - chaparro grass rising higher than his head, and the cactus. Often the land flowers with vast fields of white cypura and mimosa, lofty as palms, breasting the groves (called montes) of sarrapia and cedar. When the Orinoco, rolling north, meets and absorbs the Apure that has descended from the west, it turns. abruptly cast, away from the "then.

"To my mind, a large cloth napkin--a fresh one each day--is a far better choice. In fact one mother always "tucks a 24-inch folded square of fresh white wrapping paper on top of the lunch; to be used as a "table cloth" when the lunch is eaten on desk or table. When packing school lunches, it is desirable to keep in mind that a child's lunch should contain at least one-third of each day's food re- - quirements. It should be adequate as to amount, and as tempting and delicious as possible to insure its being eaten and not discarded. With a little forethought and "planning, have a wide variety of lunth-mak- ings on" hand. A mother 1 know, who has to prepare not one lunch but three every school day, de- votes a closet shelf and a section of the refrigerator to the requisite foods and accessories. When shopping, she is always alert for "something different" to mike her youngsters' lunches more tempting to the-eye as well as to the appetite. One day she showed me some little red plastic sailboats with sticks of striped candy (paper- wrapped) for masts, "These will --supply=the-candy-quota-for-tomors--- roy," she explained.

To my way of thinking the most important bit "of news last week was "an announcement that a fiew method of detecting cancer had been discovered, and is just as effec tive in the early, stages of the disease as in the later ones. It has been established that the blood level of glutamic acid--which-is always: present in the blood--has a higher level in patients with cancer than it has in a normal person. Tests have been going on for some time -and diagnosis has been found -accur~ ate in 91 per cent of the cases, If, after another six months, doctors are satisfied this new detection me- ; thod is really satisfactory then it will be possible for anyone: to have a routine check-up for cancer just as you can have X-rays for tuber- If this should be possible the greatest threat will be removed from cancer as cancer is admittedly curable in most cases if treated in its carly stages.

Get More Because They Produce More Considerable interest has been aroused in the recent agitation in certain quarters for equalization of Canadian and United" States wage To those who jump. at con= clusions, there is some plausibility - in the theory that a man. doing -a certain job in one country should receibe the same pay as a man do- ing a similar job in another country, However, it requires very little thought and very little argument to demonstrate that this is a com- plete fallacy. As one of our corres- pondents points out, "the per capita output of Canadians is only about - 23 of that of the U.S. Obviously, therefore, there is less per capita production here to share and that is what wealth is--goods and services, The _simple_.truth is -call---was--for--|-- people like the Macedonians who have first given _ *We lave repeated in--these pages many 'times the fact that wages "cannot advance unless accompanied by an equivalent rise in productivi- ty.
