FELLOWSHIP OF BRITISH FAMILY ON THE AIR Letters now reaching London from the furthermost regions of Canada bring vividly to mind the thrill whi h went through the Dominion from end to end when the King's Christmas message passed over the radio. Many of the remoter Canadians who rose early enough to hear the broadcast got their first real idea of the extent of (he British Empire. Think of the effect of the King's heartfelt words as heard in the lonely shack on the prairies, the isolated lumber camps of the Far North, and the rough miner's hut in the sub-Arctic regions. From Vancouver they tell us how, as they tuned in at 5.55 a.m., the light on Grouse Mountain Chalet shone clearly, ?-d the outlines of the rugged north shore mountains could be dimly seen. The whole British and American world - soon to hear Dick Clarinbull at the Chalet ded-scribing the sleeping city, the beauty of the sun-tipped Lions, and the Winter wonderland of the mountains. And on their part Canadians brought to realize the astonishing variety : climate and country which is to be found under the King's sway. India spoke of glorious poin-settias; Australia told of Summer sports and bathing beaches cro with people. Great engineering dertakings like the Sydney bridge the Mersey tunnel, and the "farthest south" fishing in New Zealand also described. Canada, as we know, was represented in the broadcast by the carillon at Ottawa, which followed thi Bethlehem bells; by a vivid description of Vancouver, "the evergreen playground of Canada," given by Dick Clarinbull of C R C V from Grouse Mountain Chalet; by a Christmas scene in a Quebec lumber camp; a fisherman of the Maritime provinces: a children's skating party in Winnipeg; and the story of a hockey game in Toronto. The Fellowship of the Family of which the King is the head was never more drar cally realized.

WINTER LONGINGS. i longing for the time When- the spring is in its prime, And birds are singing happily of love, When the hedgerows, pink and white, a solac1 to the sight, And the lank fat irfhis watch tower up above. i longing for the day When the right shall win the day And wrong be relegated to the dust, When no freedom is denied, When there's peace the whole world And rulers are both merciful and just. i longing for the grace Which shall make a happy place For people of all countries of the earth, That shall make all nations see That their truest dignity Is to cultivate the things of highest srtli.

America's idol weights 16 stone, and has been playing baseball for 21 s. In his 41st year he still retains a schoolboy sense of humor. Nothing delights him more than to go into the changing rooms of visiting teams and nail their shoes to the floor.--.New Statesman and Nation. Still Stock Size at Age Forty The approach of middle is certainly no excuse to-for developing a double chin and for allowing your figure to bulge in the wrong places. If, at forty, you cannot have a body as supple as a young willow tree, you can at least keep it to its proper proportions, so that you are able to wear the modern, flattering fashions with confidence. The following letter shows how the Kruschen treatment can help you to avoid that pathetic refuge of the overstout--the Outsize Department. "I am approaching the dangerous age of forty, and a year ago my hips began to get fuller. This was alarming, for I am a business woman and must keep my slender figure. I then thought I would try Kruschen, and from the day I started it has been wonderful. Not only are my hips normal, but I feel better in health than ever."--(Mrs.) H. J.
