'Queen's Wardrobe To Be Made Over Canadians Urged To "Make Over and Make Do" TUUHTEr Majesty the Queen is going to wear made-overs this year, too, The other day an item from Lon- don stating that Queen Elizabeth had asked the famous designer, Norman Hartnelt, who fashioned the lovely 'things she wore in Can- ada fn 1939, to sce what could be done by way of remodelling her "cross-Canada" wardrobe, (Hundreds of thousandy of Can adians will remember those beau ¢ tiful costumes of pale blue, dusty rose and dove grey, which our gracious Queen wore. They will remember how simply they wero fashioned and how exquisite they what is going to happen to fous of these costumes). Hats From Oddmen's And now word comes of the practical way in which the Queen Is solving the millinery problem of the Princesses. An old turquoise velvet party frock which Princess Elizabeth had long outgrown made the attractive little berets tho Princesses wore during the wine ter. And when Princess Elizabeth recently had a suit tailored, the remaining oddments of material var. ed cap, finished with matching ribbon and how. Princess Marg- aret's tailor was compleied sim- Marly with what he calls "my Navy hat," and off-the-faco style More Uniforms Needed Almost every household has a few scraps of material that could be used for a new beret or an off the-face bonnet for young daugh- ter. Every household .in Canada will be proud to follow the ex- ample of the Royal palace in Lng land in making materialy sO as far as possible. Every serap of Ieft-over and old material that iy utilized for civilian wear means more uniforms for a greater fight- ing force. ' More uniforms gre needed ey ery day to outfit new recruits and to replace worn-out uniforms. Since the beginning of September, 1939, the Canadian -mills have produced, cut up and fashioned into uniforms for the Services 50,000 miles of cloth. This is fourteen times the distance between Halifax and Vancouver. This is one of the rea- Bons why the Consumer Branch, Wartime Prices and' Trade Roard, continues to appeal to all Cana- dian women "to make over awd make-do to save buying new," ~~ . German Catholics K ° . Defy Hitlerism Church' "Stands Up For Re- ligious and Human Rights The only organized surface op- position to Hitler's Nazi program for Germany is the Catholic Church, says The Argonaut, of San Francisco. This is no under- ground movement. It is fostered by Konrad Count von Preysing, Bishop of Berlin, He was a mem- ber of the diplomatic corps when he decided to leave the service of the state for that of the ¢hurch. He is a Bavarian of noble birth. Associated with him are Michael Cardinal von Faulhaber of Munich and Bishop Clemens Count von Galen of Muenster. These three men are leaders of 21,000,000 German Catholics, . * * * The 1933 Concordat with the Vatican forbade the German Ges- tapo to interfere with Catholic Church activities, However, the secret police soon disregarded the terms of the Concordat. They did all in their power w bring the gies. They failed. In March, 1942, the German Catholic bishops sent out a letter to faithful congrega- tions, They said: "We emphasize that we stand up for religious and elerical rights but also for human rights bestowed by God oii man- "++ "kind, Every man has the natural right to life and the goods ecssen- tial to life . . . the natural right of property . . . and the natural right to the protection \of his honor." * » » have been issued. The one in Oec- tober, 1942, contained a detailed and critical attack on the general ir. Germany. The bishops blamed this condition on thc Nazi regime. Thus the strongest opposition to "Hitler "and his Nazi pholosophy mes from the powerful German atholic' Church.

But I faithfully profaise I'll do my best, and I honestly believe that you won't ho punished it through yon I escape." . N . Next day Wali Dad returned ae- companied by Khoda Khan Abazai and Lis grim silent friend of yes- tevdoy. Apparently the three had come to an understanding, werd in complete agreement, and their visit was in the nature of a re- cassuranes and confirmation of Khoda Khan's arrangement with Vere-Vaughan. Once again they went over the whole husiness from beginning to end, talked it back and forth, made frequent reference to the ransom, and finally left Vere- Va an strongly mndey the im- pression that Khoda Khan was honest so far as he, Vere-Vaughan, was concerned, But there he was inclined to think that Khoda Khan's honesty ended, and to doubt that his com- panions would get anything at all. However, that was "their bus- Iness; the arrangement was Khoda Khan's, and with Khoda Khan they must work it out. This is the end Wali cepted, and solemnly Dad ac- and volun- vnbreakable oath. that Khoda Khan had taken, swearing that he would honestly do his utmost to gel the. Sahib, alive and. well, safe and sound, into Giltraza Fort. "Wo understand each other, then, Sahib," concluded Wali Dad. "Yes. But look. Come tomorrow bringing with you a copy of the Koran and take that oath again * with the Koran in your hand." "Do you not trust us, Sahib?" "Ot course I don't." : : * * * Wali Dad laughed, in no wise offended. "Shall I 'bring a copy of yous holy book also, that you may 'swear to us- upon It?" he grinned as he rose to his feef.. "By all means," replied, Vere- Vaughan, "if you can find a copy. And T wjll swear that, as soon as 1 get to Peshawar T will pay Khoda Khan--what I have prom: ised him." "Khoda Khan and no one elge,* he added distinctly and deliberate- - ly. Cl A "No need to swear an oath, Sa- -hib, no need," laughed, Wali Dad, and departed followed by Khoda Khan, who at the door turned, smiled and nodded encourage- ment, . On the following day, visiting his charge, Wali Dad brought with him a small, ancient, and evident- ly much revered copy of the Kor- an hound in green-leather, enrich- ced by a green ribbon marker and ~kept in a close-fitting green vel vet case shaped like an envelope, the flap being tied down with a green cord, om . On this' Wall Dad once more swore the great oath by his lifo and _his head, by his son's life and his son's head, by the Ninety. and-Nine Sacred Names of Allah and by the Beard of Prophet, that ho would faithfully: do his utmost ~to deliver Vere-Vaughan safe, sound and uninjured into the hands of the Commandant of Gilt- raza Fort as quickly as it was ' possible for him to do so, The same oath Khoda Khan Ab- azal took and, although Vere. Vaughan assured him that it was quite unnecessary, he placed the sacred book upon his head and repeated the oath a second time. And that same night, In ones and twos and threes, Wall Intro- duced the rest, and every man of them took the oath on the Koran, L] .

"May you never be tired." Tired! 'My God! thought the un- fortunate Vere-Vaughan, "Salaam" he replied. "May you always he rich." "And has this man also made arrangement - with yon " Vere- Vavghan asked Khoda Khan. "He understands everything, his belief and Sahib," Khoda Kban assured him. "Heshak. That is so. Very clev- er," agreed Wall Dad, nodding his head. "It it be the will of Allah that T or Khoda Khan shall he slain in our brave attempt to save Your Honor's valuable life," he added, "Hussein Ali Shah Powin- dah will take charge of you and guide you. He knows the tracks; and not only is he a great hero to fight, but he has a tongue of silver, So should he and you fall into the hands of evil men, without doubt he will persuade them to let you go, or induce them to come with you to Giltraza Fort and share the reward." * * . Presently Wali Dad, yawning, clearing his throat and spitting with abandon, arose and departed "and Khoda Khan, after some more desultory conversation, departed in search of matches or other light for his biddi. It was after he had clozed the door that Hussein 'Ali Shah Pow- -indah provided Veer-Vaughan with a memorable shock, "Well?" he said softly fn Eng. lish. "Do you recognize me?" © For a few seconds Vere-Vaughan was too astonished to reply, his mouth opening as widely as his eyes. "Good God!" he breathed. "Are you an Englishman? Who are you?" ' "Ever heard of Mhjor Bartho- lomew Hazelrvigg, disrespectfully known as 'Ganesh' in certain mes. ses?" "Why ... Yes . . . Of course, Are you he, sir?" : "Don't yon remember me?" "No, sir. T have never had the rleasure of seeing you before. Pleasure! Good Lord above us! I wonder whether one man ever gave another greater pleasure." Hussein AH "Shah Powindah smiled, showing excellent teeth, "Good. 1 somehow didn't think we'd met before, though. 1 know your C.0. and one or two of the poor fellows who were killed in that ghastly raid over the Sufed Kot country. You ave the sole sur- vivor, you know." } "1 was afraid I was." * * * _ "Well, you are all right, any- = way, and ought to be safe back pretty soon. Why I called you tonight was to cheer you up. And to tell you to trust absolute- ly to Khoda Khan--and Walj Dad and the rest of them, as far as that goes. They'll get you there all right, D.V, and robber bands permitting, But be careful to 'do exactly what Khoda Khan tells you. I want you to glve a'message to the Commandant and take a confirmatory note in wylting. Do you read Russian?' °° "No, sir. Not a word. I haven't been out here very Jong and my language study has been confined to Hindustani and Pushtu. Later on, T hope." "Yes, yes. All right. It doesn't matter. But I must give yon ga little sign-and-token scribble that Garstan will understand and that'll prove that you and your tale of having come from me are genuine, Then he'll be able to believe the message--which he'll find a bit of an-eye opener.

This does not mean, however, that it is too late to make a start, As a watter of fact, most authorities agree, the average beginner makes a mistake in ceasing planting too soon, If one desires continuous bloom throughout the season or a con- tinuipg supply of really fresh vege- tables, planting should be continu- ed right up to the 1st of July. This is especially true of vege- tables, particularly the gemi-tender things like beans, carrots, beets, corn, cabbage, ete. Most vegetables are best when they first maturity, and il one wants to continue eat- ing the finest 'carrots, corn, beets, beans, peas, ete, all through the season then planting should be continued at intervals of from two to three weeks right from the time the soil "ig "first ready up to about the first week in July. In practic- ally every line it is now possible to get an early, medium and late maturing sort, By sowing all three, one automatically extends the har- vesting season, With flowers, it is still not too late in most parts of Canada, and only early enough in the colder scetions to plant nasturtiums, gla- dioli, dahlias, and to set out well started bedding plants of cosmos, zinnias, alyssum, ete. obtainable from the nearest seed house, nurs- eryman or greenhouse. These started plants In both vegetables and flowers will allow one to have blooming flowers or maturing vegetable gardens in a few weeks, Huns As Monsters Of Scientific Looting ~ According to the Board of Economie Warfare, the Germans, Europe of mo less than $£36,000,- 000,000, and are now looting at the rate of tens of billions of dollars a year. They have stolen and shipped to Germany indus- trial machinery, raw materials, scientific equipment, horses, cat- tie, sheep and. pigs; they have stripped public and private art collections of their treasures to adorn their palaces; they have filched office "furniture, park benches and garden tools, food, soap, clothing and shoes; they have even pilfered the hinges from doors and windows. "For 'magnitude and ruthless. ness," says the BEW, "the Ger- man looting of occupied Kurope~ surpasses all previous conquests in history. > . And indeed, Attila was a piker by comparison.."For the Germans have developed looting to a sci- ence and an art. They have not only scized everything they could moe; they have likewise seized vreything they -could not move by-simply taking over title to th property. solitely certain as to how much English our friend Khoda Khan knows." Ea] "You don't trust him, sir?" "1 don't trust anybody, my son. First rule of the game. So if by any sad chance the message fell into the wrong hands, there ig much less possibility of its being read and understood #f it's in Rus- sian."
