PAGE FOURI'flW fw&ANAM *A.5.Aa #WBUVLE *TM T Current and Con fidential By Elsie Carruthers Lunney NOT ANY MORS Long ago there were three plgs. littie handsome piggy-wigs. You remember ail about them. One buit his house of sticks, one of straw and the third ai brioks. And the big bad woli came and he huffed and he puifed, blew down the house af traw and the house of!-sticks, d!sposjng of their inhabitants with shocking relish. Only the brick house withstood the terr- ic onslaught, which fact is sup- posed ta, point a worthy moral. It now looks however, as if this idea has been blown (but flot by the wolf> into a cocked haf. If -the wolf were ta try and blow down a house of straw to-day, he would probably die of apoplexy and the walls would stili be standing. Thus are our ideas of the ridiculous reversed. A house of staw Everyone has always feit sorry for the poor silly littie pig who relied on this flimsy material ta withstand wolves and weather. But naw straw is actually be- ing used for buildings. In Saskatchewan baled straw has been used to make a shed for cattie, and next year homes are expected ta be made ofiti. The walls will be stuccoed on the outside and plastered an the in- side. Cheap and warm. But please, Herman, be careful with the matches. If these experiments really prove successful, "The Three Little Pigs" wi]1 have ta be re- written, for you can't fool the modern child on things like that. Someone will have ta think of a substitute for the house that, was built af utraw. Any ideas? 5. NEXT - THE AGE 0F 1. FRANKENSTEIN ? ýfEvery so often someone cre- ,fates another mechanical man, a erabat, improving an the inven- itions af athers. These creatures s have been made ta seem so clev- eer in their actions and respanses that their resemblance ta human beings is rather frightening. For fmany years the invention and tperfecting of such robots has 1been a pastime ai scientists. We iwonder if it ever accurs ta these iscientists that electrical robots fmight take over their creators, 1and aur civilization. AI] that would be necessamv wauld be a few humans ta. throw the right switches and 7rabots cauld do the work af thousands. Eventually, the ra- bats might take aver these humnan prapellers, and throw their awn switches. Perhaps the humans wauld be liquidated and a true Mechanical Age ensue. Such creatures in the image af man are flot a new idea. We do not know how many people may have thought af it and act- ed on the thought or tried ta, befare the year 1816. But in that year a manster was creat- ed who becamne natariaus over the world, and whose notoriety has increased and risen ta the mast hair-raising heights in this 2Oth century through the medium ai motion pictures.

In the summer of 1816, Shelley and bis wife visited Switzemland and became neighbours ai anather famous poet, Lord Byron. Theme were athers toa in a wmiting colany. It was a wet summer and Byron, thc Shelîcys and an- ather fmiend mmused themselves iby meading same German ghost staries. Byron then propased that tbey each write a story ai the aupemnatummi, and so tbey began. But Byron and Shelley timcd ai the idea miter a little, and the, friend, Palidori, got into difficulties with bis stary. But Mary ýS4elley pemsistcd. The in- spiration for Frankenstein came ta hem in a sort ai waking dream fallawing mn evening spent in iistening ta Byron and Shelley dîscuas the principle ai lufe. In herm mmd, she saw the terrible manster created by a human; saw it came ta hife, its creator try ta escape fram it anly ta find it standing by, bis bedside. Hem own eyes flew open in terror, ta be reassumed by the empty, quiet moom. Creator Enslaved Sa Mrs. Shelley tells herseli ai ber conception ai the monst- cm, Frankenstein. How the creat- ume ruled and ruined the lufe ai its creator is told in ber great stoî-y which in weli worth read- ing in spite ai its old-fashioned discursiveness when you're dy- ing ta get on with the stary.

It is rewarding ta mead the original story wich was written by a well-educated, wcll-bmlanced'gentlewommn who bas a number ai other books ta hem credit.
