ivtook the apples power to please then to joves altar loud hecriea t too am good im plume abide we are all familiar witfa the old saying tf you keep a thing long en ough you will eventually find a use for this sarins naturally makes us think of oonimodltim but the same- could be applied to knowledge or to incidents that we may have stored- in our memories some years ago as we waited an a customer to our place of business we mentioned to him that we intended to drive out to a funeral in the country that afternoon ho ex pressed a desire to go with us and as we started out he produced a package of cigarettes and offered us one we told him we didnt smoke and then he menubned the fact that he often wished that he could quit the habit himself and went on to tell us that it cost him on an average of 50 cents a day for ntm he was an interesting chap a prospector by profession and spent moat of his time in the vicinity of hudson bay at the time of our story he was home on his annual visit to see his mother he must have told ue some interesting experiences that afternoon as we drove along that mile drive but try as we may all that we can recall of our conversation that afternoon was the incident in regard to the cigarettes of course it hasnt cost us very much to store that in formation in our memory even figur ing the overhead and now it is feb ruary 1941 maybe we have at last discovered a use for it at 50c per day we figure that would amount to a total bxveattnent in a years time of 18350 at the end of the year be would have to show for that invest ment some dark brown teeth and some discolored fingers and that would be about all let us suppose that m 71941 be decides to awitch from cigarettes to savings stamps in a years time after making this de- jcisjon be would have a total of 33500 flmtcertiflcates payable at par in 1048 and would have 35o worth of stamps betides that both fall teeth and bis fingers would have lost some of that discoloration in the meantime its an idea isnt it we mentioned in this column some 1 time ago that we would would likely have something to say about bread later on passably you are ready to quit reading right now with ttie thought that this is going to be dry stuff however if you continue to follow our remarks about bread you may find something that you had not thought of before because of the fact that the bread plate has been placed on that one particular spot on the table at every meal as long as we can remember it has become common- plaea and we never give it a second when arrantinx a meal there are at least tarae articles that we never taanuon salt peeper and bread and ye no nasal is complete without them it- would be vfery easy a whole pag for us to fuli i of the 1 aid on this apwoot nawovar youwoum get ttredt reading h and so wo pro pose to serve it out in small portions somewhat almcar to our jack horner series from week to week quia programs are very popular this win ter and suppose we were to ask you to name the different ingredients that are used to make up a loaf of bread you would likely be able to name at least these four flour water salt and yeastand u that were all that you could name we would likely tell you that you hadnt named hall of them yet in later articles we will be telling you about these different in gredients that go to make up a loaf of bread and why they are included in its composition last weeks sport page in the herald deserved a bis hand perhaps we should leave the following for the abel sports writer however it is an unusual sports item and perhaps he wont mind us taking it as a rule referees are not too popular king clancy says the bell boys have stopped speaking to htm and yet we cant very well get along without thenl you may recall a local hockey match of a few weeks ago in which the whistle was bandied by d a houston of toronto while we didnt see that particular game yet we have often at tended games- that mr houston re- fereed and we always thought him very fair and also he kept the games clean just recently mr and mrs houston and family were awakened by the smell of smoke only to find that their bouse was on fire mr houston took the two children downstairs and mrs houston stumbled and rolled downstairs all in their pight attire no doubt we have at times thought that we didnt care whatmlght hap pen to a referee however we dak think that anyone would have wished this to happen to mr houston we understand that while conslde damage was done to their home none of them suffered any injury word from david howell the many friends of david howell who used to live out on the nerval road azutwtoo went to the south of england to get married and settle down a few years ago will be pleased to hear he is still carrying on as en ergetically as ever and is planning for his spring garden in spite of any threatened invasion of england he has written prof h l hutt for some more of that same kind of early garden corn he got a year or two ago he says we are in one of the quiet est corners of england as regards- war alarms and disasters no bomb has been dropped here yet the home guards hear enemy planes going over head in the night its very quiet rep utation has brought a great number of refugees and vacueea who have been billeted around so that the vil lage is filled to capacity our bouse being small and we both being deaf has left us alone we could manage considerate adults and i have written a doctor friend of mine who has been very busy in ambulance work in the east of london to come for a real quiet few days davys address is fuji berrynarbor n devon kngland he would no doubt be glad to hear tram any of his old friends here ca the duoes dreams of empire are ited by the britten and greek for-
