a hx "Do The Mostest With The Leastest" An Aieilian "gence, says The Vancouver Sun, once staked out for himself a permanent place in dictionaries of quotations by ob- serving that the way to win wars was "git thar fustest with the mdstest."" Another way to look upon things during such trying times is "do the mostest with the leastest,". And many Canadians are doing great and good' things these days with "very little--not great in" the sense, pbssibly, of building tanks, piloting dive bombers or presenting a Spitfire to Russia. But they are doing something -- something that is within reach, They are buying War Savings Certificates, 'con- sistently, svety pay day. U.S. Arid Forces Need More Doctors The need for doctors, dentists, pharmacists aiid engineers is much greater than' the supply, accord- ing to Harlow J. Heneman, direc- tor of the University of Michigan War Board. The armed forces and war in- dustries of the United States need 25,000 doctors, 10,000 den- tists, 4,000 pharmacists and 100,- 000 engineers immediately, he said. Only 5,100 doctors, 1,600 den- tists, 1,600 pharmacists and be- tween 13,000 and 16,000 engin- eers will graduate this year from American colleges and univer- Sitiese "Under The Very Noses Of Japanese" A party of Australinn sailors and airmen, operating in comman- do fashion, stole into a Nether- lands Indies port after it had been evacuated and removed val- uable equipment and destroyed others before. the Japanese ar- rived, avcording to the Sydney radio. ' The radio said that the raid, presumably at a western port in Java, was carried out under the very noses of the Japanese, "Valuable equipment had been left on the wharf," the account said, "when the port was evacu- ated. The epemy was only a few miles away, but corvettes were sent at full speed to get the equip- ment away. "They landed airmen, armed with tommy guns, and naval rat- ings (enlisted men) watefted the jungle paths. While the equip- ment was loaded, "petrol was poured over lories amd cars and the munition dump was destroy- ed. : "On their way back to Aust- rasa. an the Sunda Straits (be- tween the western tip of Java and Sumatra), the corvettes picked up more than two hundred survivors from _ torpedoed merchantmen." Canadian Overseas Army Established Formation of a Canadian First Army Headquarters in the United Kingdom was announced recently, and its commander, Lt.-Gen. A. G. L. McNaughton, declared it - would provide a Canadian organ- "of war. 4 PRS i ization "competent to undertake the planning for eventual offen- sive operations on the Continent." "It will keep the closest liaison with British organizations set up for similar purposes," Gen, Mc- Naughton said in a statement from the new headquarters which was opened in Southern England. He said formation of the First Canadian Army "is a clear recog- nition that the war can only be won by attack--aimed at the heart of Germany." (A simultaneous Ottawa an- nouncement on the setting up of headquarters for the largest-scale Army organization in Canada's military history said: "The estab- lishment of the First Canadian Army overseas will create a thor- oughly modern, self-contained and™* hard-hitting fighting force cap- able of operating in any theatre It-is- particularly strong in armored fighting power."") Vichy Increases Plane Production Gen. Jean Marie Bergeret, French Secretary of Aviation, has disclosed that the Vichy govern- ment has received 'special per- mission", presumably from the Germans, to increase its air force and now has aproximately 1,000 modern war planes, or more than France had at the beginning of she war. ; The Free French press service asserted that France was sched wled to produce 6,000 planes in 1942 and that all but 1,000 were for Germany. : The reowining 1,000, it said, were for Vichy's armed forces 'accumulators have les, dyeworks and. laundries, ..

Is it necessary: to write any- thing on the card that accomp- anies a wedding gift? 4. What is a good thing to remember when playing bridge? 5. When entertaining a house guest and an invitation is re- ceived to some social affair, is it permitted to ask the hostess for an invitation for the guest? 6. Is it correct to eat frozen puddings with a fork or with a spoon?- ANSWERS 1. Yes. Friends, as a rule nowadays, send flowers to the mother and perhaps some dainty apparel for the baby--such things as a lace cap, a little sweater, or a pair of boots. This is not ab- solutely necessary, but % is con- sidered nice. 2. Yes. This should be done by all means if insufficient cov- ering has been provided. 3.

Store Up Steam [n Accumulators British War Factories Have Saved Thousands of Tons of Fuel Thousands of tons of fuel have been saved In Britain's war fac. torles by storing steam in accumu. lators during air ralds. Although factories do not shut down merely on getting the "alert," they have to do so when the roof spotters signal that the raiders are over- head. But instead of the boilers blow- ing off their steam into the air when work stops, the steam is gen. erated into the accumulators and stored, to be used when the raiders have passed. .- More than a thousand of these now been in. stalled In fron and steel works, sugar refineries, brewerles, dair. All act on the same principle--the storage of energy during" off-peak: load periods, and the calling {ito action of this steam when produce tion requires it. In one sugar tefivery the instal lation of a steam accumulator raised production by 12 per cent, and lowered coal consumption by about 7 per cent, In a dairy the time taken to produce condensed milk was reduced by 20 to 26 per cent, while in a brewery 16 per cent of the coal was saved. Out. put in a laundry was increased by 10 per cent after. installing an ae. cumulator, and the boiler effiel « ency of a dyeworks was improved | from 66 to 74 per cent, Britain hag the largest steam accumulators in the world, thelr - steel shells being 14 feet 9 Inches In diameter by. 82 feet long and weighing approximately 500 tons. ie ry Lay Need 20,000 Pupils For Ontario Farms Twenty thousand Ontario sec- ondary school students will be needed to work on ..cms in the holiday season, A. McLaren, Farm Service Force Director, said re- cently. Students from twelve years of ago up are being registered for farm help, he said. Camps were being established for girls from sixteen to nincteen paid a minimum of 22% cents an hour for farm work and in such areas as the Niagara Pen- insula where picce work prevails the minimum. must come up to this hourlr rate. Boys would" be paid $20 for the first month they work if they are inexperienced and $25 if they worked on farms, last year. I'or the remainder of their employ- ment, their salary will be scttfed between themselves and their employers, Mr. MacLaren said. FARYON GOES TO QUAKER OATS REG. R. FARYON Reg. R.

"Then, when night comes and his work is over, what does he do?" "That's what mother wants to know," Tommy replied. Man: Whatcha cryin' for? Boy: | lost my nickel.

A. diet that contains all essentials in reduced quanti. ties is, next to long-lived ances tors, the greatest aid to longev- ity. This is the conclusion of eight years of pioneer experi. ments with more than 2,600 white rats by Dr. Clive' M. McCay, work- ing under a grant ¢" the Rocke- feller Foundation at Cornell Uni- versity. White rats react to diet in the: saine manner as humans, Roughly ten days in the life of a rat is HANDY POCKET POUCH - 154 14-LB. 'LOK- TOP" CAN - 654 also packed in pocket cans. "IT DOES TASTE GOOD IN A PIPEI* WN IN SUNNY, SOUTHERN ONTARIO SS equal to one year in the life of a man. All the rats were fed a basal diet, but those receiving pdm half rations lived longest. The reduced diet slowed down bodily activities. There were fewer white corpuscles in the blood stream, and the animals' hearts beat only three hundred times a minute instead of the four hundred beats of the well-fed rat. Living more slowly, saving. en- ergy, they lived longer, The Me- thuselah of the laboratory was an underfed rodent with a life span of 1,430 days----proportion- ately 143 years for a man, To- find if excess in one kind of food shortened life more than excess in other kinds, Dir, McCay' fed one group of middle-age rats excess sugar, another starch, a third whole-milk powder, and. a fourth liver, All four over-fed groups lived approximately the same length of time. All died much sooner than they would have if they had continued on short rations. Over eating, no matter what, works against a long life. Dr. McCay could find no "long- evity foods". Nor could he. find that a high protein diet short- ened the span of life. He thus sums up his findings: "Eat what you ought to eat first; then eat what you~ want -to eat--but not |- too much of it."
