LAL La Se dinely Loose Maple Syrup Post Office Problem Persons are 'still sending syrups, Jams and other sticky. substances in fragile tontainers, lacking even "wdequate packing, wrapping or sealing in overseas parcels. One day at the Base Post Offico ten parcels were damaged and ®yequired cleaning and 7 because somebody mailed syrup in =" open in a mail bag. Several par. cels, andther day, had to be. re- conditioned because maple syrup "in a corn syrup tin with "pressed. on" lid burst open in transit, This year a shortage of tins has resulted in maple syrup being mailed in wax-coated cardboard containers, which break open in handling. People. alsd are still mailing glass bottles and jars which become broken, the cone tents spreading over and damag- fng surrounding mails Maple, syrup, if mailed at all, should be contained in strong leak-proofed tins, with lids secure.

Peo- ple were by no means perfect, but, looking back, in general, they ap- peared to be more kindly, more leisurely and much happier than are the present generation. tl Is true thpt they lived in the golden ago of a century of pe and material progress, whe we have known wars and depres- slons. But perhaps the real socret co lies in the fact that with plain living went high thinking, - The family still held together and found its enjoyments in the home more often than outside it.

Sleeping Postures Are Interpreted If you deep on your back, ac- cording to a story in The Chicago 'News, it may mean you are a pretty fine character. A blanket maker consulted a psychologist about these things, and the sage replied that this posture gests you "probably face prob- lems squarely and courageously" and are "emotionally stable with as you sleep." If you sleep on your stomach, on the other hand, that, too, has flattering implications. "You may be an intense person who works hard," the slecp-interpreter said, "or a rugged individualist who doesn't have as much fun as he should. Not so complimentary was the report on those who sleep curled up. This indicates, the story said, an attempt to escape from reality. As for thi sleepers who clutch their pillows in an wffectionate 4 embrace, that was a cinch, To science, the story said, this means i thut the 'sleeper isn't getting \% ~~. enough affection. 1 K/ ~ Woman workers in the post of- bali ~ fice in Great Britain now num- bah ber over 117,000, FRENCH GENERAL F lees F RANCE Gen, Alphonse Georges, above, former commander-in-chief of the des, is reported by Radio Algiers "to have escaped from France, reached Algiers and placed him- self atthe disposal of Gen, & Giraud. sugr- no inner strains prey eying upon you North and Northeast French arm- Bate You Heard? Bill had found a new pet name for his wife. He called her "My Cherub" so often that at last the lady became suspicious and asked why he used that particular form sof endearment. Bill looked rather uncomfort- able for a moment, and then de- cided to put a brave face on it. "It's like this," he said, "you never seem to have any clothes, you're always up in the air, and vou keep on harping!" "l wish I knew who put that joke in the paper about Scots being so tight." "Why don't you phone the editor and ask?" "What! And who'd pay for the phone call?" A small boy returned home from school and told his father that he was second in his class.

"Well, you see, father," ex- plained John, "girls are not nearly sC¢ mere as they used to be." He: "You understand, dear, that for business reason: our engagement must be kept a secret."

By contrast, nearly all sur- vivors picked up by trawlers from one internationally kaown ship which was sunk in Furopean wa- ters had to have their feet am- putated. Caused by Exposure Immersion fool is caused usu- ally by exposure in life rafts or _ boats for long periods and if not 'properly treated is likely to re- sult in gangrene, requiring ampu- tation to save the victim's life. The rules for preventior of the condition are: 1. Cover legs and feet with a thick coating of grease as long-distance swimmers do; 2. Remove any constricting clothing such as tight boots hich are in use for warmth if the feet are in water anyway; 3. Exercise the feet as auch as possible, to keep After exactly a week of mar- ried life-my wife said to me: "If 1 had only known marriage would "be like this I might have married several other people some time ago!"

Groundhog Has Expensive Taste Walter Brown, of Hepworth, Ont., lost a wallet containing $80 on May 14, the purse dropping from his pocket as he picked up a load of lumber ordered from a Keppell Township farm. Next day Brown returned to look for-his wallet and found a small leather stamp container which" had been inside, Further search revealed a $10 bill under some rocks and $61 and- the wal- net nearby, leaving a debi. of $19, Police liquidated the debit bal- ance by locating a groundhog. He was shot and poilce pieced to- ~ gether $19 which the animal had . chewed up and swallowed. Brown took his shredded money to a Hepworth bank and was assured the remnants can be re- placed. .

The great tragedy of many im- mersion foot victims is that res- cuers-in-giving treatment to sur- vivors of ship sinkings usually give the wrong treatment which causes the patient intense suffer- ing and even loss of one or both feet. Rubbing the feet and apply- ing hot water bottles and blan- kets is exactly the wrong: treat- ment. First -Aid Rules First aid rules for this condi- tion are: 1. Keep the patient. dry and warm except for his feet; 2. Lightly dust sulfan'lamide powder Wrap the legs in some sof: clean material and elevate on pillows; 4. Leave further treatment for a doctor who should be seen as soon as possible. No washing, soaking, antiseptics, lotions or ointments, except the sulfamilamide powder, should be used. The patient must rot-stand or walk, and his feet and legs must be handled gently. Survivors treated in the port had their feet wrapped in sterile towls to keep them doy, and pack- ed in ice, or kept under a blast of cool air from a fan, because the success of the treatment of im- mersion foot depends on bringing the affected parts back to normal temperature very slowly, over a period of weeks.
