Phone 182 McHenry, Illinois Ipfwffiw Play Majw fMt la Eaglaart BaiMlaf 1M Britain today is building more than 20,000 new homes every month --a record unmatched by any other country. Since the end of World War n, more, than 680,000 fartiilies have been re-housed under Britain's postwar building program, and it is estimated that 2,500,000 people have been re-housed. Nearly 418,000 of these families have moved into new homes. The rest have been re-, housed in bomb-damaged1 homes and Converted dwellings. Helping to re-house 20,000 families every month is Britain^ young army of apprentice builders. All told, more than 3,000 boys of 15 to 19 are putting up some 1,800 houses: over ' 120 acres in England and Wales. Building while they learn, these i y o u n g s t e r s w o r k * u n d e r t e a m s o f , highly - skilled craftsmen instructors-- carpenters, bricklayers, paint-! ers, plumbers and plasterers. But they do everything themselves. They dig trenches, lay foundations, put down the drains and erect the scaffolding. '] Apprentices work a 44-hour week,1 spending one .full day a week studying the theoretical side of their craft. • "' 1 LINES a Pkg9 0«TtB Gypsies came oriarinallv from India, not EtrA, . • . Reaw the Wint Ads //£ Hen! Bird-Seed for Breakfast A WOMAN, married to a hypnotist, brought her husband to court, charging him with cruelty. "Your honor," she complained, "my husband is the meanest mar. in the world. He hypnotized me into thinking I was a canary and then gave me bird-seed, fox breakfast, dinner and supper." . The judge gasped.;^: . . "Is this true?" he demanded'. The husband appeared defiant. "1 beg your pardon," he said, "but I don't think that was mean." , v The judge's eyes popped. ^ "You don't think that was mean?" The husband shook his head. , "No," he asserted. "I could have hypnotized her into thinking she was a sparrow---and then she'd have had to hunt for her own food.'* Soya! Gttf That relatively new Jewelry, metal palladium, of the platinum group, was used with gold to decorate a rare book presented to Princess Elizabeth. Included in the collection of wedding gifts, It is now revealed, was a copy of W. Macqueen- Pope's "History of Theater Royal, Drury Lane." *The book, especially bound for the purpose, was presented by directors of the theater. Publishers describe the book as "a fine example of the art of bookbinding." The binding is blue Persian morocco, tooled in palladium and gold with watered silk end-papers. Prince Edward m«h The flag of the South African union floats over Prince Edward isi land, notes National Geographic society, and an Australian expedition has occupied Heard island. Both are desolate piles of volcanic rock and rubble normally inhabited only by I penguins. Lying 1,800 miles apart, they are units in two of the half dozen bleak island groups scattered across a vast ocean area from Africa's southern tip southeast toward Antarctica. The groups are in the same average latitude as the United ---- { States-Canadian border in the North> i ern Hemisphere.
