Walter Lippman on this side of the Atlantic said: "A Nazi victory, obtained without Italâ€". ian help, would be supremely danâ€" gerous for Italy. Therefore, Italy‘s only chance to save anything from this desperate situation is to join the Germans if they are winning, to join them before it is too late to contribute anything important to the Nazi victory, yet not too soon to be fatally hurt by the Allies." CANADIAN WARâ€"WEEK At home in Canada, it was an eventful week. Quebec women won a victory when a law was passed was behind the obvious dissatisâ€" faction in British parliamentary circles with the conduct of the Norwegian campaign. Was Gerâ€" many winning? To look at the map was helpful, but not enough to clarâ€" ify an obscure situation. Sir Archibald Sinclair, Liberal M.P. in the British House, was outâ€" spoken: "The Government must take vigorous measures and deterâ€" mined action in Norway, or remainâ€" _ ing neutrals will climb on the Gerâ€" _ _ man bandwagon." Further, "If the Government muddled in this Norâ€" wegian campaign it will be for Parâ€" liament to act objectively, fearlessâ€" ly and resolutely as the grand inâ€" quest of the nation." FOURTH WEEK BEGINS At the end of the third woek of the war in Norway, the German High Command claimed that Oslo and Trondheim had been linked by Nazi columns, that Dombas, stratâ€" egic rail junction, had been capturâ€" ed, giving the Nazis control of the main railway line from theâ€"Norâ€" wegian capital to Trondheim. The Allies, while admitting withdrawal in several"sectors, still commanded the approaches to northern. Norâ€" way; held the important ports of Namsos and Andalsnes; and were successfully landing substantial reinfortéements of ‘men and ‘supâ€" plies, together with muchâ€"needed antiâ€"aircraft guns. NAZIS IN~SWEDEN A German attack on Sweden seemed much less imminent last week, although huge sums were apâ€" propriated for defense purposes by the Swedish government.

"oar n AREE Wike e expert supervision of this able fy "doctor" that the new leaders were first tied when they were introduced to the Canadian fishâ€" ing fraternity last spring, so we know the information he gave us is correct beyond a doubt. The Best Knots After experimenting with sevâ€" eral types of knots, it was decidâ€" ed that the best knot to tie the nylon strands together into a strong leader would be the famâ€" iliar Barrel or Blood Knot (see accompanying diagram). Other experiments proved that the best knot for tying eyed flies to the leader was the Turle Knot. Famâ€" iliar to experienced fishermen and popular with most anglers, it is one of the simplest and safest knots used and will hold under all conditions. It is easy to tie (see illustration) and good for any.size YOU ASKED FOR IT Many Ontario anglers have written in to ask us what the best knots are to use in tying eyed flies to the new nylon fishing leaders. Before attempting to ansâ€" wer this gereral enquiry we had a chat with Frier Gulline, one of Canada‘s most expert tiers of ar tificial fishing flies. It was under Where possible there should be a lawn in the foreground, with an irregularly shaped bed of flowers around the edgos and possibly ditâ€" ferert groups of shrubs at the corâ€" ners. Screening of harsh straight lines about the house and drives with clumps of flowers and shrubs and an occasional trailing vine over verandahs or garages will bring the whole thing together. INFORMAL LAYOUTsS In the average case planting irâ€" regularly in clumps will produce the most pleasing garden effects. Such planting, too, will add an air of spaciousness, giving even tiny backyard gardens the appearance of much larger plots. With ordinary annuals and perâ€" ennials liberal watering is also adâ€" visable ard shelter from hot sun for the first few days. Some pickup in the way of quickly available commercial fertilizer, carefully apâ€" plied, will help at this time, merely a pinch for small things like tomaâ€" to plants or asters, and perhaps up to a couple of handfuls for shrubs and trees. are cut and the shock is severe. Half a pail of water after setting out is not too much for such big things, and the watering should be repeated two or three times a woek, if a quick start is wanted.

CODDLING CODFISH Canada has imported an average of 337,000 gallons of cod liver oil annually for the past five years. The Atlantic cod fisheries last year produced about 60,000 gallons. Canada falls far short of producing enough for her own requirements. Yet, it is estimated that Canada can produce from 300,000 to 400,â€" 000 gallons of the oil annually. Here then is a condition that cries for remedy. Our production should be far greater even in normal times. â€" Halifax Chronicle. TOâ€"DAY‘S NEW WORDS Words have their days of favor.
