Rationing System Teaches Economy Canadians Are Great /Wast- ers, Says The Ottawa Journal When Sir. Robert Borden once asted a distinguished - European visitor what impressed him most about Canada, the inhesitating re- ply was: "Waste!" It may be well that war, with rationing already with ys and " "more to come, will teach us the erime of waste, For Canadians, with our' American neighbors, are the great wastrels of the world, Bince the turn of the century, we have gone through our material resources with wanton disregard for the future. We waste as much food as we eat. We waste things that are irreplacable. We Jestroy. In all of our hotels and inns and restaurants and homes food is wasted. When a great manu. facturer of mustard was asked how he made his fortune, he re- plied: "By the mustard people leave on their plates," What he said about mustard could be said about almost any food; the food thrown into Canada's garbage tins every day would be sufficient for An army. FEL Well; the waste is going to be over for some time; over, perhaps, for a longer time than we imagine, We are got merely going to be ealled upon to waste less: food; we shall be compelled to do with. out a lot of luxuries and gcores of fother gadgets and creature com- forts and a multiplicity of styles and things which we have too often confused with progress and civilization, Perhaps when the war is over, we shall"have learned something. Learned not merely the folly of waste, but the folly as well of too many gadgets and too many lux- uries--learned" our needs can be standardized and simplified urder a saner economy, The learning may be good for us. The - sheen on a new motor car each year may cause a momentary thrill; but there are other things in. life which bring more enduring happiness. Y : FIGHTS COUP IN MEMORY OF A GREAT MAN The Late Sir Frederick Banting A year ago Sir Frederick Bant- ing was flying over the sea in the . service of his country when he was killed in an airplane acci- dent, His missior.~was to corre- late the results of aviation medi- cal research here in Canada with 'results obtained by scientific in- vestigation in the Motherland. Last week Sir Frederick's death .was marked by a spec'al service "at the University of Toronto; In opening the service, Dr. H, J, Cody, president of the University, said "Sir Frederick Banting's life is a challenge to all Canadian youth to use imagination, energy and knowledge in the service of mankind," He was "one of the > world's greatest benefactors -- the 'discoverer of insulin, a direc. tor of research in many fields of medicine, a man of singular mod- esty, unselfishness and friendli- ness." The University of Toronto has planned to hold a lecture' on medi- cal research each year on the an- niversary of Sir Frederick's death, In delivering the first Jecture last week, Dr. C. J. Muckenzie of the University of Saskatchewan said- that Sir' Frederick's success had been 'responsible for development Emam ee ESE ia a -- RTC TUNUP Ei Satins RADIO REPORTER DIALING WITH DAVE: 'We did it before, we can do it again!' With this keynote of confidence and determination, O'Keefe's Show went on the ah Sunday evening at their usual hour of 8.80. - Merilyn Stewart, « charming 16-year-old vocalist, de- lighted her audience with the ever-popular, "Smoke Gets in your Eyes." Her. second number, "Angels of Mercy" was written by. Irving Berlin in honour of The Red Cross Society, Inasmuch as this program was dedicated primarily to this good cause, her delightful solo seemed a fitting .part of the program, Through- out the entire concert, Freddie Davis' . "Teen - Age Orchwira" formed the musical background, and certainly did a wonderful job of it. i The highlight of the Show was a short play with Nancy Carroll and Rai Purdy portraying the courage, determination and long patience of a suffering England, with a vision of a bright. and glorious new world after its pres- ent trials, Nancy Carroll was on . a visit to Toronto, doing all she ® could in aid of this worthy cause. Col. K. W..Langmuir, President of the Toronto Branch of the Red Cross Society, outlined in a few words the work of the Society, > and expressed gratitude for the support given. " All the determination and con- viction of war-torn England was sung into the popular song "We did it before, and we can do it again." In this fitting manner tue All-Youth Orchestra closed a wonderful performance. Yes, we WILL do it again! So be sure to be with them "again over CFRB next Sunday evening at 8.30, and enjoy the music and good times with these up-and-coming teen- agers. . . * The Empire Air-Training Plan is the Empire's pooling house for personnel; and the development of the men, in every phase of air- force training, is. a fascinating and thrilling story.

The event referred to in the "Book ol Genesis occurred about 1700 B,C, Psalms, Proverbs and + Ecclésiastes were written between 1050 and 1000 B.C. The prophecy from Isaiah was utterd about 712 B®. The words quoted from the First Epistle to the Corinthians were writter. about A.D. 59. Place.--The event referred to in Genesis took place in Egypt. Many of the Psalms, Proverbs and Fol gin Mere written in Jer- usalem, as Avas also much of the book of Isaiah. Corinth was a great Greek city of Paul's day, located in Southern: Greece. 84. "And he toko and sent messes unto them from him: but Benjamin's mess was five times so much as any of theirs. And they drank-and were merry with him." Joseph now prepares a great banquet for all of his brethren. The unusuully large portion assigned to Benjamin was designed as an expression of his strong fraternal affection. There is not. the slightest thing in this passage that what these men did met with any Divine disapproval. God's Goodness 14, "He causeth the grass to grow for the catt'., and the herb for the service of man; that he may bring forth food out of the earth. 1b. And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, and. oil to make his face to shine, and bread that strengthens man's heart", God makes the soil respond to man's tillage with abundant pro- duce. The word 'herb' here in- --cludes alt vegetable products. God provides. for 'man's enjoyment as vell as for 'his sustenance. God 3h PLS my heart rejoiced because of all my labor; and this was my por tion from all my labor. 11, Then I looked on all the works: tliat my hands had wrought, and on the labor that I had labored to do; and, behold, all was vanity and a striving after wind, and there was né profit under the sun." The mirth, or happiness, to which Solomon thus addictea himself was the mirth of festive convivialty, It was not to soli- tary drinking but to the pleasure of the festive board that he re. solved to "eat, and to drink, and to be merry." He determined at the same time to acquaint his heart with wisdom. Some, it is true, understand this, of wisely regulating his indulgences, enjoy- ing without exceeding. But, after all, where was the charm in all this? It was merely novelty, His heart rejoiced in his labors but not after them. They were by and by completed; the novelty of them passed away; and with the novelty the pleasure which. they had yielded. , False Sense of Security 12. "Come yc, say they, I will fetch wine, and we will fill our selves with strong drink; and to-. morrow shall be as this day, a day great beyond measure)" Indul- gence of thik kind was habitual, There was"an intention to con- tinue it because they loved it, and meant to drink deeper and deeper, Salvation Determined 6. "Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted. 7. Neither be idola- ters, as were some of them; as it is written. The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play." The matter of drinking is not a matter which determines salvation, but it is a matter which determines spirituality in that sal- vation anl the usefulness of the life of the believer.

An order issued to Rommel's forces instructed them. to conserve oil because the situa- tion is "extremely stringent" and observed that the quantities de- stroyed or captured by the: Brit: ish could not be replaced. At the beginning of the war, it was pointed out that oil might be a deciding factor-in the outcome. But as the months grew into years it was obvious that the Nazis had stored up immense supplies and were in no danger of running short in a hurry. First signs, brought: on probably by the huge expenditure of fuel and lubri- eants in the Russian campaign; are now coming through of a "string- evcy'" in the Axis oil hoard. 'Enormous quantities of oil are fed to run a modern war, Big tanks go only ane mile to the gal- fon "of gasoline, Aircraft, ies- pecially when in combat, aré vor- acious consumers of gasoline, A fighter uses about 45 gallons an hour when cruising but will eat np twice that amount when in ac- tion. A big bomber consumes 240 gallons an hour when flying _ at top speed. A five-hour raid by six hundred bombers would use up about 720,000 gallons. What- ever may be the state of oil re-- . serves in. the Axis, these figures show very cl why the domes- r el oil in Can- ada must be conserved. One thousand tons of wheat ate ' vsed every day to provide homes in Eire with bread and cakes. Sowing grass seed by airplane is the latest wrinkle out on the ranch. Jack Frost and Roy Arledge, busy with a range improvement program, hired a pilot to scatter grass seed and Italian rye over their cattle lands, The plane carries 800 pounds of seed on each trip and sows it in about 10 minutes, With ideal conditions, the pilot scatters around 12,000 pounds a day.
