the georgetown herald wednesday evening june 23rd 1 94 1 timely topics j7f0irw0meh by barbara baines a curb on the use op many commodities is expected the one thing visitors to canada add the united states comment on is the abundance at everything on this continent the abundance and variety of row on our tables of clothes in our clothes closets the number of cars radios telephones bathrooms the biasing electric lights on every side there is evidence of luxury and also of waste the north american continent is a land ol rich resources and it is true that to date we have had to da without few of the things to which we are accustomed but it looks now as though the war were actually going to catch up with us shortages in many commodities in everyday use are- expected before long and consumers are being warned that many things formerly taken for granted will be- on the restricted list canada and united states are now so closely allied economically that shortages in one country will be reflected in the other and identical means of conserving supplies wlb no doubt be worked out for both the curb on the use of gwsohne which now seems inevitable will perhaps more than anything else bring home to the average citizen the fact that we are at war the oil supply on the east coast is gradually dwindling due to the diversion of tankers to britain and the new pipe line some 4450 miles long which will bring oil from texas and louisiana cannot be completed in less than six mouths a shorter line expected to be completed- in november from portland me to montreal will reneve the situation in eastern canada somewhat by cutting off 2000 miles by ocean tanker persons who depend upon fuel oil for heating can expect some inconvenience and civilians using coal are urged to lay in a supply now because of an expected shortage and to prevent undue strain on trans portation during the rush season there is every prospect theft steel for nonessential civilian pur poses will be radically restricted many products will be affected from farm implements stoves washing machines etc to lawn mowers and golf clubs other key metals such as zinc tin tungsten aluminium and nickel are already very scarce because of the huge demands of the war industries the governments of both countries are seeking for substitutes for civilian consumption and are urging people to conserve kitchenware and other equipment now on hand an announcement is expected shortly cutting the production of automobiles by 50 in this country the restriction is aimed at curtail ing the nonwar use of steel rubber alloys and man power and leaving the factories freer to produce mechanized vehicles for war it is also expected that dealers will be asked to have old tires retreaded to save rubber builders supplies are subject to priorities for war production and restrictions are expected in the erection of new buildings such as theatres large stores and apartment houses many imported seaborne oommodiues are becoming scarcer be cause the ships are slow carxyiny- implements of war to britain tea sugar jute carpet wool spices are being watched by the government to insure a fair price and adequate supply- crop prospects for this summer are not good as a very dry summer is expected peed for cattle next winter may be scarce and the depart ment of agriculture advises the sowing of sudan grass rape and millet to provide additional pasturage and feed there may be a short crop of fruit and a dry season means a diminishing flow of milk and a scarcity of butter and cheese already housewives are me many of their favourite brands of canned goods from the grocery shelves and people are being urged to grow and preserve b11 the fruits and vegetables possible in the tjsa the suggestion has been- brought forth to standardize clothing to aid defense if the number of fashions styles models colours sapes and brands were curtailed it is believed the productive capacity of industry for defense could be increased by from 25 to 33 the curtailment of the use of many commodities usually taken for granted will mean some minor sacrifices in every household but cana dians are learning that the ultimate aim of life is not comfort and ease they are learning too that freedom is still the possession only of those who have the courage to defend it women to serve overseas the canadian government has at last decided to permit canadian women to volunteer for war service overseas and uniformed groups who have been ardently training for just such an opportunity are jubilant at the news the announcement from ottawa states that the government is not undertakine any responsibility f or these volunteers but it has granted permission to the british auxiliary services to recruit women here the mtc mechanized transport corps of great britain is the first organlmuon to avail itself of the privilege miss janet carruthers a former winnipeg girl arrived in toronto recently from england with authority to recruit 500 young women she has seen service in england and prance and says that while the mtc has 4000 trained drivers now there is an everincreasing need for trained women to drive for sur gical units mobile flrsuaid posts mobile canteens serving civilians red cross ambulances etc the corps is entirely voluntary this means that anyone wanting to join from canada must be able to pay her own way to britain and maintain herself there recruits must be between 21 and 40 years of age they must be physically fit and technically qualified to drive an ambulance or light mechanical transport or to act as a chauffer since shipping space is at a premium only those willing to sign up ior the dur- uon of the war or as long as needed will be accepted on arrival in england the newly recruited members of the mtc will be given a iur- ther short training course to familiarize them with english traffic laws and conditions in a country at war miss carruthers expects to go later to montreal ottawa winnipeg vancouver and possibly other cities to give young women throughout the dominion an opportunity to join the mtc at oresenttransport drivers and nursing sisters are the only women eligible to go overseas but later 11 the need is urgent women may also stemiltedfot first aid canteen work technical jobs and other war work t t let me remind you there are thousands to

telling how she and her nine year old brother came to their 900 year old home in sussex when the bombs began to fall and go as war guests to america she describes with the unaffected frankness of a child the parting with thelr parents and the trip across the atlantic in a big convoy the sea is very separating says sabrina when she realizes they are past the middle of the ocean and they cannot go home now she tells of arriving in canada all covered with dark green trees and smelling like pine tar shampoo of the canadian trains with seats that turn into beds of meeting canadian children who say ok and then comes the trip by plane to new york and meeting aunt harriet uncle george and the cousins america is a strange land where you cant afford to be lazy tor fear you miss something one of the most interesting parts of the book is where sabrina describes her new home school the drugstore that isnt so much for medicines as icecream then of course there are trips to the worlds pair and the

and write cannot be taught algebra the church has been slow to recog nize this fundamental educational principle one very misleading pro verb is that thin soup may be made from tough beef it is much wiser to teach children what they need to learn and are able to learn at each stage of development paul graded his materials in his epistles he wrote much more simply to the phillpplans than he did to

christian unity reconciling racial and religious differ ences is reported from the madras international missionary conference december 1938 prophets of gloom and doom said that four hundred and seventy delegates from seventy nations could not meet without conflict the possibility of a division was very real through differences of race national ity language and creed but instead of an explosion there was hainons black and white east and west chin ese and japanese citizens from dicta tor and democsatic states faced world questions together and maintained their fellowship one writer says madras proved that christians repre senting widely separated positions can and a fellowship and work together in mutual respect for the accomplish ment of common purposes godgiven growth 68 due honour must be given to the founders of churches such as luther calvin or wesley they gave a charac ter to the fellowship they founded just as paul left his impress upon his mission churches the power of personality is very great and lasts long yet when this has been admit ted manspart is subordinate after back of any religious movement the spirit of god is at work the early church owed much- more
