Ihey‘re @¢tting thinss don» Hedges Obstruct at Corners . Had a call the other day from a lady in Downsview whose apple trees are loaded with tent caterpillar cocoons. These inâ€" sects which do so much damage can be controlled if everyone takes care of them at the cocoon stage. Her suggestion was to put some cotton battem on the end of a stick. set fire to it, and burn them off. It‘s the only method of elminating them, she said. They are to be found in any kind of tree, hedge or bush. Watch for them and do your bit. In the "good old days", I‘m told, our mothers hired a seamâ€" stress to come in, three times a year â€" spring, fall and winter â€" to "do for" the family, sewingwise. It‘s only natural that with all a mother has to do there‘s bound to be one phase of it that doesn‘t appeal to her. Perhaps those "Home Services" agencies will, some day, have available "speâ€" cialists" . . . women who do just ironing, just washing, just babyâ€" sitting, just nursing, just sewing . . . If you ask me, it seems they‘re headed that way. Might be a good thing. Personally, 1 love to fron, but loathe mending! Tent Caterpiliars . . . But 1 digress. Now that we know the name of this handy, artâ€" ‘11 ful little quirk in our feminine makeâ€"up we should perfect our technique to the point where the lads are not aware of what we‘re | doing when we "accidently" squirt our grapefruit all over the kitâ€" chen wallpaper that we‘re sick to death of . . . when we use his | shoeâ€"shine box to prop up the baby‘s crib where the leg fell off . . . or perhaps we use a wad of chewing gum (that should be easy toJ find!) to hold that loose towel rack in the bathroom. I You know ail that unused space at the tc hall closet? It irked me to the point where cartons on top of each other to hold all th Speaking of mending . . . why can‘t we hire somebody to come in, say once every two weeks. to patch up, mend, darn and sew buttons on that overflowing sewing basket that â€" as I said beâ€" fore â€" "decorates" some corner of every home in the country. Ours sometimes looks like the "Lost and Found" basket over at the school. As a matter of fact. that‘s often where "missing" things turn up around here. The cartons, somehow,, wouldn‘t stay apparently was a good one, and Father The Lost and Found Basket . . hint" 1 guess you‘d call it,, and now wei have shelves clear up the ceiling just the right size to he ours and those of any guests who might drop in Of course who can blame them. They‘re not realists. What would a pile of holy, wholly, or is it holey? jeans, socks, buttonâ€" less pyjamas, torn shirts, skirts, etc., do for a room all done up for company? Amazing isn‘t it, that we aren‘t aware of it? I think it‘s kind of fun to read something like that about ourâ€" seives. Something that we do unconsciously which is quite clever. It‘s almost like having your fortune told. I much prefer, though, that it be called the "silent reproach method" rather than the very unfeminine "sledgeâ€"hammer hint". 1 must admit that 1 use this same technique â€" but on myself. 1 reproach myself with all sorts of jobs by setting them out where I‘ll trip over them. The only thing is, the place looks terribly junky if you don‘t get at them. My pile of mending, sitting in a prominent place in the livingâ€"room certainly gives the place that "livedâ€"in look" which the popular magaziges suggest we strive for. Their attempts to give that homey air to a pinkâ€"toned Colonial, or stark blackâ€"andâ€"white Contemporary room illustration run usually to a casual halfâ€"knitted sock and a pair of hornedâ€"rimmed specs sitting on a coffee table â€" front centre. Immediately, he said, he realised why the box had pricked his conscience. His wife uses this same method of reminding him of things he promised to do but just didn‘t get around to. "It is the technique of the sledgeâ€"hammer hint," he says. Well â€" have you found yourself using this method of getting y‘ things done? \| He ignored the box for awhile and they chatted about all sorts of things, but the mystery teaâ€"chest was niggling at his conscience. It worried him. There was something curiously familiar about it â€"â€" & sort of reproach. Eventually, of course he had to mention it and was told that it contained some of the material for her new bookshelves. "I need them urgently", said she. "The man who is responsible for having them put up occasionally looks in, so 1 am leaving that box of wood right there as a gentle reminder to him that it has not been done yet." What made it stand out so sharply, he goes on, was that the| rest of the room was so attractive; neat, quietly elegant, and| busily practical in a comfortable way that a man can never quite achieve in an office. (We all agree with you there, sir!) 1 think. A man isn‘t subtle about anyâ€" - thing. (I‘m ducking, boys!) In the middle of her new office â€" right plank in the middle, on the new green carpet â€" he says, she has a big, roughâ€"looking, wooden tea chest full of pieces of wood, and all sorts of junk. He says he nearly tripped over it. You couldn‘t miss it, he says. Gentle reminder‘ The Sledgehammer Hint "E" places because we‘ve scen the fruits of their â€" They‘re getting things done. A popular columnist in an English magazine tells a story about his editor (a woman, by the way) that struck a reâ€" sponsive chord and 1 pass it on, to see if you do this sort of thing too.

There are several reasons The greater the number® of nucleor burevacraties, the greater the danâ€" ger that someone will moke on error that would set off nuclear woar. It would seem there is already suf~ ficient nuclear power on both sides to provide all the deterrent needed.

Moreover, both sides have said a 100 megoaton bomb is possible. The Russians have already tested bombs of more than 50,000,000 tens of T.N.T. and the U.S, has said it is capable of producing bombs of that size too. * THE BOMB THAT was dropped on Hiroshima _ was _ equivalent . to 20,000 tons of T.N.T. . . . One megoâ€" ton is the equivalent of 1,000,000 tons of T.N.T.. THE NUCLEAR THREAT VAL SCOTT speaks his mind on VAL SCOTT is the New Democratic Party canâ€" didate for York Centre. He is known as The Man Who Speaks His Mind. In this special article for THE NEWS he outlines his views on one of the election‘s hottest topics: Nuclear Arms OPPOSES more nations possess with the United greater the and contral which might be copied by ï¬-uflbum-h-yh Moreover, if a nuclear war broke out, the enemy would almost cerâ€" tainly use its intercontinental missifes, against which there is no known defence. There is, therefore, little to be gained and much to be lost by locaâ€" ting nucleor weopons in Canada. Under a New Democratic governâ€" ment, Canada would play a leoding role in & nenâ€"nuclear dub. portant rele in making the idea work. The nenâ€"nuclear dub would not be m‘m"â€ï¬m,m to acquire nuclear weapons. That would be only the starting point. The only effective defense is the deterrent . effect . of â€" the _ American Strategic Air Command thot is, the knowledge that the attacker‘s own country would be ravaged within hours. The possession of nuclear warâ€" heads in Canada adds nothing whatâ€" ever to this deterrent and, therefore, adds nothing whatever to the deâ€" fence of Canada. What it does do is smother our obility to prevent the spread of nuâ€" clear weapons. Thank: to the fimid and wnimâ€" aginative performance of our present government at the United Nations, Canada did not originate the idea. There is no defence at all against the interâ€"continental ballistic missile. This is a scientific fact. Bomare missiles might be particu larly affective against on attack by monned bombers, but if even a few got through( and many . certainly would‘ Canada could be put out of commission in short order. If Canado gets nuclear weapons from the U.S. this would give the Soviet Union a legitimate excuse for arming her allies. If West Germany gets nuclear weapons from the U.S., Russia . will give them . to . East Germany. At the some time possession of nuâ€" clear weapons would disable us from playing what could be a useful role in preventing the spreed of nuclear weapons. Acquisition of nudear weapon: by Canada _ would â€" place _ additional stumbling blocks in the path of a nuâ€" clear . disarmament . agreement . beâ€" tween the Soviets and the Americans. And how could Canado hope to preach nuclear disarmament or a ban on nuclear arms to other nations if we possess them ourselves? Some people may say this idealistic. We can be sure, however, that if Canada possessed nuclear warhsads it would add nothing to the Wast‘s deterrent generally or to our own particularly. The West already has more than enough nuclear power to wipe out the Soviet Union several times over. members of the nuclear . clubâ€"we will have FORTY. They will say Canada‘s national interests must come first and the nuâ€" clear deterrent which would be ours if we acquired nuclear‘ arms, serves Canada‘s interest. increases the danger of nucleor wer we must stand against nucleor weaâ€" pons for Canado.
