'l) O L’L -A -41 GIVE at, EASY WAYS TO TELL TIME Possession of Watch or Clock is by No Means Necessary, as This Article Shows. A boy who does not own a watch need not go without any knowledge at the time or day. There is a boy who works in a wheat elevator m an Iowa town; and this is how. he man- ages it.

A despatch last week from Cana- Headquarters in France said: tmas Day Was not as quiet on the Canadian front this year as it was last year. In the early hours of the day a successful raid was carried out by the Canadians, and one result was that several Germans spent Christmas in our lines. Attempts at batemizing were severely frowned upon by the Canadian brigadiers, and when the Germans realized this they retaliated by straï¬ng the Canadians with some Christmas boxes in the form of “whiz-bangs." -v-â€" “We are at war,†said one Canadian brigadier, “and not here to celebrate with the Hun, but to kill him.†So there was no Christmas truce along vâ€"vâ€" ' the Canadian front, or anywhere else for that matter.

As between the swimmer Ind the non-swimmer the chances for â€cape in an emergency are as ten to one. The point of the important les- lon is driven home with emphasis every summer, and still it apparently needs urging as much as it did twenty years ago. Most people seem to re- tard swimming not as an important accomplishment, but merely as an op- tional recreation, like golf, tennis or China painting. And yet any of us may be confronted at any time with 3 crisis that makes swimming an art more important for the moment than that of walking. The folly of the common neglect is heightened by the fact that it is an art as easily acquired as the ability to walk. And once ac- quired it is never lost. Other Parts That Owners Need to Understand A writer on motor cars says: It has often been said that owners know too much about the motor, and their know- ledge of it tends to remove their at- tention from the clutch gearset and the remainder of the power trans- mission system. We all like to work around machinery we know something about, but in the case of motor car owners, they should endeavor to learn more about the running gear and its care. Universals, brakes, wheel bearings? and many other parts not as acces-’ sible as the spark plugs, seem to be forgotten until something goes wrong with them. The owner does not wait for a bearing cap to fall off before he ï¬lls the crankcase with oil, and similarly he should not wait until there is excess play in the universal before it gets its supply of grease or graphite. It is difficult to keep uni- versals well lubricated, even when the housing is periodically ï¬lled. These parts are just as important as the motor, and should receive just as. much attention and at frequent inter- vals. There will be no buckling, due to end play in the propellor shaft as- sembly or clutch, if the parts are properly lubricated and kept. Device is Really a Shock Absorber For Axe Handles A shock absorber for an ax has been designed, to minimize the vibrations which are felt in an ax handle when one is engaged in vigorous chopping. The handle of the implement ï¬tted with this device does not extend into the head but is fastened to it by means of two short spring-steel rods. One of these is bolted to the upper edge of the wooden member and the other to the lower edge. The former extends through the head and is fas- ened by a nut; the latter describes a ownward curve and is fastened to the head by two bolts. This gives the handle a resilient connection with the head without lessening the force of the latter’s blow when it strikes into the wood.â€"-P0pu1ar Mechanics. “Spring Onions,†or to give him his full title, Mr. William “Spring†Onions, the police court poet, and a well known character in East London, died at Ratcliff.

Enormous waste is caused both in material and nutritive value by the eeling of potatoes before cooking hem. There are thousands of pounds of potatoes wasted every day through the peelings. To be convinced of this it is only necessary to note the bulk of the peelings when you peel the po tatoes before cooking. But this is not the only waste. When peeled pota toes are boiled in the ordinary way. there is a loss of nitrbgenous and saline matter by extraction into the water, which does not occur when potatoes are boiled in their skins, or baked Authorities agree that northern- grown seed will give the best results in old Ontario and that immature s (1 does better than mature seed. ‘ parts of Scotland,†said Professor Zavitz of Guelph, speaking on this point, “they grow an early croy of potatoes and then plant a later crop for seed purposes, and they ï¬nd that the immature potatoes make the best 2333, and, the same result has 2313111 , d at the college; potat not ‘ matured make better seed a mi Arm Is For Food A rather curious tact is that thp bones of the arm are arranged g1- math for the purpose or 9 hmd to the_ mouthâ€"fact! b .
