Murder Mystery Still Unsolved

The boy was just home from ;chool and wanted his tea, but the house was locked and there was no answer as he knocked t.nd rang. Where was his mother? A.gain and again the fourteenyear-old rapped on the door, Just in case she had the radio on and could not hear. Still there was no reply.

He waited nearly an hour, unm his father came home. The itoor was opened. The boy ran Into the house, then he gasped 'D horror, for sprawling in an U'mchair in the dining-room was us mother, her head battered.

· She had also been stabbed many limes with a carving knife taken from her own kitchen.

The knife was still lyin& on ler chest, but there was no sign ~f the weapon that was used !.O batter her head.

Mr. and Mrs. Ford (I am using lictitious names out of consideralion for relatives) were entliusi- , a.stic members' of a local oldlyme dancing club, and the newspapers of January, 1954, were soon headlining the ''Old Tyme Murder Mystery."

There was no indication of any sort of motive. Very soon there was a team of eighty delectives searching for the murderer. Hundreds of people were questioned. The murder hunt spread from the Midlands throughout the country. Who killed this woman? That was the riddle to which there appeared to be no answer.

From the very beginning the police believed that the murder could just as well have been committed by a woman as by a man. So in February, a month after the murder was committed, when by now detectives all over the country were carrying out the biggest operation of its type In Britain, women as well as men were being questioned.

Nine women, some holding shopping baskets, were lined up at Coventry police headquarters for an identity parade. While lhey waited patiently in a queue, a Coventry hqusewife came into lhe police courtyard. She had IOld the police that she had seen a woman "hovering about" near lhe murder house. But when the housewife faced the identity parade, she was unable to identify any CJ! the women as the one ahe had seen.

The police continued to quesllon people up and down the country. A detective went to Blackpool to interview a man. After the interview the detective Did that the man had "volunteered some information," but whatever that was it did not bear ,ny fruit.

Five months before Mrs. Ford sas murdered; Superintendent 'll'alter Groom retired from the Coventr y City C.I.D. About a

lltls Couldn't Happen ---But Did!

Yep, they really do It! We mean Uing- out on a limb and then wine off the WTong end. This

corny accident happened to . Benjamin Morris of Kansas '.CHy, Mo. A tree limb blowing ag-abi.st hJs window so annoyed Jwn that he cot ou! of bed In She JDlddle or the night to cut H , .«. Soon he was back ln 'bed i - hospital bed,: that is. ·

fortnight after the murder, when the police did not seem to be getting anywhere, ex-Superintendent Groom was called in by a newspaper to see wh ether he could suggest anything to forward inquiries.

His statements after he had been on the job for a little while were certainly enlightening. He said that the Coventry police had found out these things concerning Mrs. Ford. She was house-pr_oud and careful about her appearance. She dressed very elaborately to attend some of the old tyme dancing club festivities and was known as "The Duchess."

Until a few months beior!> she was murdered she was a member of the Townswomen's Guild. She had two sons; the elder son, a sixteen-year-old, was apprenticed to a barber; the younger son was the one who tried to enter the house on that fatal day. Mrs. Ford looked' after her family well and was the foster.mother to an eight-year-old girl.

About two months before she was murdered, Mrs. Ford, who was slimly built and so shortsighted that she could not see without her spectacles, stopped attending the meetings of the guild. She returned her fosterchild to a children's home and started going out to some unknown afternoon destination. She was out at least three afternoons a week.

Mr. Ford had told the Scotland Yard that several times he had returned from work to find that his wife was not at home. She did not tell him where she had been. Probably those secret assignations were the key to the mystery. But nobody has ever found out where Mrs. Ford went.

It was believed by the local police that someone might be shielding the murderer. Up and down the country inquiries went on and more men were interviewed. For a long time the police investigated a suggestion that the murderer might have been a man who made a practice of calling on housewives, posing as a man who had come to inspect the electrical equipment because of complaints about inter:erence with television sets. When the man obtained entry to a house, he made improper suggestions to women. It appeared that a man was found and was questioned but no charge was ever made.

Then yet another twist was given to this amazing murder mystery. It was stated that the police wanted to question a young girl who had vanished after having lived for a time with a man of handsome appearance who said that he was a salesman. People reported to the police that about the time of the murder they had seen a young gir l walking about as if

rtt iti~- h~~;;·•;;j;~;:· ~:~: ;i:~ was murdered, but, again there was no result.

There were several adjournments of the inquest on Mrs. Ford, each time presuma'Jly in the hope that information might be forthcoming.

Who killed this woman? The public was worried. All over the country since the end of the war there had been more and more cases of ,vomen murdered, and the murders remained unsolved. In August, 1954, eight months after the crime, schoolboys of fourteen and fi'Iteen were being questioned by detectives who worked on a time chart of the movement of boys who cycled near the home of the murdered woman. But again there were no tangible results.

Two years later, during At•gust of 1056, detectives made another bid to unravel the mystery. They questioned a man in London for two hours, after it was found that he had been working in Coventry at the time of the murder.

But at the time of writing there had been no developments.

Chicken Pie For Breakfast

For discreet people with d iscerning propensities, I highly recommend the chicken pje for Thanksgiving breakfast a refinement being more and more ignored as the crowding years effect t h o s e metamorphoses know .1 as progress. I had a chance not long ago to tilt with one of these patent, machine. made chicken pies of commerce, pasted on a foil platter and the cover welded on with the Bessemer process. and l thought of the good chicken pies that moldI d m:• character.

Somebody ought to do something to perpetuate the architectural lines ·of a real chicken pie. What bothered me the most was the comment heard about its money-making successor around the companionable board, "Umm, these really aren't bad al all, are they?"

the ol,d-fashioned kitchen rang, la evil, but it did have the gen• eral habit of being continuous You could h'ist the cover occa sionally and insert a coup le o. fresh sticks of hard wood. an< while three old hens parboileo all afternoon you didn't have that down-cellar clickety clicl of the gas meter, or the mad dening whir of geometricall: progressing kilowatts makin1 you a bankrupt.

BIRTHDAY PORTRAIT- This officia l birthda y p i cture of Sir Winsto n Ch urchill, who was 82 on Nov. 30, show s h im in his home in London with his w ife. Photo graphers reported that the former Prime Ministe r' was his usual crit ica l self as he examined the large number of prints ta ken a nd ordered a ll but the 0'118 above scra pped.

As a matter of outspoken truth, they were pretty bad.

This goes to show.

A chicken pie should not be a quick-style slap-together. intended to appeal because it is e as y, convenient, reasonably priced, and can be brought to a boil and served straightaway. A chicken pie should be esteemed. It should be stood off from with respect, viewed as a work 01 art, prompting love, detail, time, and care, and if people are really after speed, sHTiplicity, and convenience, let them steam - hot dog.

By Thanksgiving time th, dawn is retarded. and to have : really good chicken pie fo· breakfast you had to arise in th , dark. Society has largely give1 this up as a barbaric custom Anybody who stumbled out o bed to do a barnful of chores be fore breakfast had no illusion; about the late riser 's orang, juice and dry toast. Too ba< that so many millions of com fortable, pr(l,\;perous, ease - bedecked people are unable to relate how it smells when you comP. in from the milking on the kitchen aglow with the olfactory evidence of chicker; pie.

Now, there's another thing Lard. I know ail about the bet• ter things which have renderec lard into the limbo of • los1 causes. But the plain, and sup• portable, truth is that lard i! what makes pie crust. You have to know how to use it. and the direction you're heading. In a world made better by vegetable oils, this is a rash remark. Everybody knows better. But the kind 01 chicken pie .. I'm talking about was made with lard, by somebody who knew how, and you can talk all -night and never convince me.

~11 TABLE TALKS /y daM Andrews.

The following recipes may not be practical for every day life but they are an index· to the time when cookery contributed much to gracious living and making good 'bread was considered an art.

An earlier art icle, "Do It Yourself Bread," by William C. Hall describing his bread-making machine reminded me that my mother had one of those machines about 50 yeai:s ago. It was the first labor saving device she owned and I have no idea what became of it.

Interest in home baking is enjoying a revival and a well worn cookbook, written in the fashionable Spencerian writing of the latter part of the nineteen th century, is a treasured heirloom in our family. It contains recipes which have been favourites for generations.

Homemade Yeast Cakes My mother made delicious

salt rising bread depends upon the yeast.

Scala ,ut do not boil 1 quart sweet milk, add 2 tab!espoons sugar, a small pinch of soda and 1 cup aI liquid drained from the jar containing yeast.

Add enough flour to make a batter and set in a warm place to rise until it doubles its bulk. Add salt, fat about the size of an egg, and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Knead 20 minutes. Make into loaves, place in greased pans and let rise 3 hours. Bake in a moderately hot oven (350° F .) until done.

• • Beaten Biscuit

In making beaten biscuit always use one teaspoon salt, a piece of lard the size ot an egg and a teacup of milk to a quart of flour, adding enough cold .water to make a stiff dough; no other ingredients are permissible.

RIGHT FROM THE FEED BAG- Hogg ing the space at his favor ite "dairy bar," Pee-Wee the pig nurses from his foster-mother, Bitsy, the cow. Rejected by his own mother, who had 10 other piglets to nurse, Pee-Wee follows Bitsy to past ure o n the J ohn Ing le form , staying with her and n ursing whenev•er he' s h ungry. It's okay with Bitsy, but she qrives away other pigs that try to muscle in on the free chow.

bread and rolls in her bread machine. She also made her own yeast cakes. These were made by taking a cup of sponge used in making bread and working it into a stiff dough, using corn meal in place of flour . The dough was then rolled very thin, cut into cakes with a biscuit cutter, and allowed to dry for 2 or 3 days or until they b ecame per fectly dry writes Mary R. Wall in Christian Science Moni tor.

The cakes were then stored in a covered j ar or placed in a small sack. When Mother was ready to make bread, she soaked one or two cakes of this "yeast," depending on the amount of sponge needed, in a cup of lukewarm water and this was used in the same way we now use the dry commercial yeast.

• • Rusk

Mother made a bread which she called "Rusk," that was a favourite with the family. She took a piece of dou gh large enough to makea loaf of br ead, made a dent in it in which she broke two eggs, put in a cup of sugar and a cup of r aisins and worked them well into the dough. She then let it rise to double its bu lk and baked it for 30 or 40 minutes or until done. This mak~ delicious toast.

Do not let them touch in the pan and bake in a very hot oven until done. Delicious served with fri ed ch icken.

Really Fat While the radio biared its

incessant bleating about overweight, the chap sitting next to us in the Elks Club hoped his mother-in-law might be listening.

''She's so fat," he explained, "that whenever she falls down ·she rocks herself to sleep trying to get up. When my father-inlaw was courting her one n ight he thought he was re.illy necking. But all the i.ne he only had hold of her finger.''

"She was really that fat, eh?" "When she got married," he

rambled on, "she weighed 300 pounds. It took her six brothers to give her away. I iook her out one day to play golf, and what a problem! When we put the ball where she could hit it, she couldn't see it. And when we put it where she could see it, she couldn't reach it to hit it. She's even afraid of her shadow. She thinks a crowd is following her."

"She ought to reduce," we suggested.

"Yeah," he agreed, "if she could only cut out the soldier food."

"Soldier food?" "Yeah, everything she eats

goes to the front. She asked her doctor for a diet and his main suggestion was to stop eating bread. 'Cut out bread,' she snarled, 'how am I gonna soak up the gravy?' When she was seriously ill she turned to my father-in-law and said, 'If I die and I find out you're runnin' cUOUH Wlt.ll U<.llCL wu1uen, l"ll

turn over in my grave.' He looked at her and said, 'Mollie, even then the exercise will do you good.'" ·

Food Faddists Some of these toad faddists recommend a daily eating of swiss cheese and limburger. It has always been a pu.zzle why the swiss cheese has the holes in it, whereas it's the limburger that needs the ventilation.

The bride was told by a wellmeaning friend that sea food wou ld give her husband that daily umph. So she went in itnd ordered oysters.

"Large or small, ma'am?" "Really, I don't know, sir,"

she said. "They 're for a man with a s ize 161/2collar."

IIOLLOW LEGHOLLOW TALE

One-legged Ralph Pattison , of Los Angeles, was escorted to police headquarter s and ehargcd with street bookmaking. Indig--nantly, he protested his innocence and insisted that he was a poor man.

Unsympathetic police searchers examined P attison's wooden leg, and in a hollow cavity found a considerable amount of paper money.

I hesitate to 1&\sist that a chicken pie shoulcf''have chicken in it. The evidence is against me, and too many people know better. You can step into any emporium of profit and find chicken pies waiting to be bought up, all labeled so you can be sure, and hardly any chicken in them at all.

It would be interesting . -to know the mileage of a fourpound bird in a modern, hygienic pie factory. The system must be a lot like the routine Bije Michaelson had for hiring a cook at the Railroad Hotel. When tha applicants came for an interview Bije would take theM into h is office one at a time and .ay, "How many servings can you get from a ten-pound roast of bull beef?" The man who came up with the largest number was hired.

In my opinion, unpopular though it may be, chicken pies lhould be made on the basis -of how many chickens you can get into ea.:h, not on how many pies you can get from a chicken. This would probably bankrupt our pie -economy, but it would produce fewer and better pies.

Best results are had from old hens. You parboil about three ~! them and get them so the meat falls flff when you extricate them from the pot. There's a lot of me,it on them, and a iood deal bett~ than we are taught by modern dietitians who stress the young and tender.

l realize the big trouble is with our stoves. Everybody can give you forty-leven reasons why

The potat0es and carrots and onions and so on which aid and abet the chicken , plus the three old hens, call for a vessel of some size. You don't make my chicken pie in a tin-foil bite-size nappy. The s·etting pan for milk, also ostracized some time since, v.,as just right, Being extensive in the circumference, it created a , tructural problem which was solved by inverting an ironstone mug in the center, to support the crust.

This was standard procedure in rabbit, ch icken, and other meat pies back when acreage counted. Then you laid her up, ingredients equitably and judiciously disposed and the adequacy of the chicken meat being above suspicion. The crust, drawn to a thin delight, was, because of its fragile nature, wrapped several times around the rolling pin, and the master· builder would skillfully unwind it so it fell into place intact. You couldn't just pick that crust up an'.l flop it down. And into fae oven it would go before daybreak ·on Thanksgiving morning ere the r uby rays of t he rising sun had gilded the peak of the barn.

The thing about this pie was its suggestive power. It suggested Thanksgiving. It made you glad. It set the pace for the whole day. We had such pies often; but we never had one foJ bre-akfast except on Thanksgiving, and this made it differenl and notable. - By J ohn Goulc in the Christian Science Monitor

Farm Evenings Not So Q4,Jiet

•

As the brief, autumn-discipined sunset adorned the western sky, l sat on a sharp rock and contemplated. Doc. Rockwell, the old Keith Circuit quack, says if you sit on a rock long enough it is bound to make an impression on you, but Doc is a come-lately In the philosophy of down-East rocks. Grandfather, who preceded Doc by an enti.,.•e history book, ,aid nobody should ever sit on a ;mooth roc]s because he would ;it too long.

For short rests, consistent with 1 farmer's time schedule, one

should select a sharp r ock, insuring that dilatory periods will be held to a minimum and that sedentary inactivity will shortly seem more arduous than labor Thfs is a calculated compromise with relaxation, and doubtless shows the difference between true r ural philosophy and the slapstick, or professional, kindthe latter merely noting thai ~ocks are uncomfortable at best, and neglecting to compose a uselul conclusion.

I had therefore selected an mgular projectipn from the or:hard wall and had lightly de;,osited myself thereon, intending :o edify myself briefly after fini-1hing up the carrot yanking and :hen be on my way home for mpper. The sunset was pretty, m :he fallish manner. Purples con~eying a touch of cold and pos-1ibly snow, predominated, with the richer and warmer colors :nuted. Purple is supposed to be a rich color, but in an autumn mnset it is not. And the change irom afternoon to dark was not prolonged.

This is the time of year when the crepuscular ipterlude, a term I have never been able to work into an essay, is scarcely a fleeting instant. You can stoop down to pick up the side of your wheelbarrow and miss it completely. I had hardly adjusted myself to my hard and probing rock when it was dark, and there I sat all by Il'._ielf in the orchard and nothu,g to see.

This undoubtedly includes the ingredients for an idyllic foray into bucolic observations - the man, the place, the time, and his thoughts. And it was rather a shock to learn that this situation in which 1 found myself was not at all as quiet, withdrawn, and ,secluded as I, and perhaps a reader or two, would expect. You have no idea how noisy it was.

Some of this was the still air of the evening, hanging with the preparations for frost. The light breeze of the afternoon had subsided with the sun, and there was no rustling of the beech and oak leaves. All sounds from all directions came with equal intensity, and they came from afar. I could perceive the composite vibrations of the entire periphery with unimpeded clarity, to coin 1 phrase.

Eight separate and distinct clogs were barking, five of them to the shouts of children winding up their outdoor play. The other dogs, neither separate nor distinct, were hounds over in the

Farrar swamp bugling a rabbit. They would fade and re-emerge, fade and come back, sometimes together and sometimes not, their contributions ranging from the whines of high grief to the low

• rumbles of mutual despair. Then two airplanes, went over,

flying low, and next some jets went over, flying hig h. The lights

, of the two first blinked pleasantly, but the jets snarled their hateful, ominous, blood-chilling overnoise, which ought to be outlawed. This world was never meant to be an echoboard for jets.

Then came automobile horns. the squeal of brakes, the grinding of diesels on the long hill. and the rattle of truck bodieshigh way noises from two miles away. Next, the digesters were blown off at the mill-a rushing, steam-escaping noise we hear only when the air is right. A train, away off on the main line, whistled and then rumbled over the big bridge.

And Mrs. Blais stepped to her door, a mile away, and lustily summoned her copious brood, lingering lastly on lung-sapping exhortations which can bf' euphoniously represented by: "Tippyyire! Tippy - yire! V'en - see! 'Pesh-twee!" This can be translated, more or less, by, "Little Peter, come here, hurry!" But none of the inflection of the original was lost in the mileage, and my translation perforce disincludes the implied alternative that if petit Pierre didn't 'pesh himself with all celerity he would everlastingly regret it. Then the Blais door slammed, indicating Peter had entered, and quiet prevailed from that quarter.

The fish horn the Garlands use to advertise their meals now split the evening and resounded. Father Garland, answering promptly, paused only to close the rolling door on the barn, raked and rasped and whined on its- unoiled track.

I hadn't been siting Jong, and I was ready to unsit. I applauded the new moon and the early-out stars, and when I stood up I could see the house lights over the knoll-supper would be about ready now. I smiled at the popular notion that the countryside is traditionally calm and quiet and peaceful. Give a Hollywood director a cricket he can snap and a frog to croak, and he thinks he can make a rural scene. The rustling leaves, the p u r l i n g stream, the twittering grosbeaks

Just then a steel-rimmed tractor went down the roa·d by the house, drawing what sounded like a Nova Scotia hayrack with loose slats, loaded with empty oil drums, milk cans, and storm windows, perhaps-a last touch before I went inside and closed the door on the traquility of a lovely country evening on the old farm.

TIil l'AIM I RONI o~12ussell

Of all the plant species growing in Canada, one in five rates as a weed. The annual weed cost runs into many millions of dollars, enough to warrant close attention to their control.

According to Dr. C. Frankton of the Canada Department of Agriculture, many a bad weed has gained a foothold simply because it was not recognized for what it was. Success in weed control depends largely on a proper understanding of these ' plants. It is often difficult to trace them down because most of the weeds growing in Canada have been introduced from some other country. Frequently careful search in foreign literature, particularly European and Asiatic, is required before a strange plant can be identified.

Weed workers may consider correct identification of weeds a trivial matter but there is a definite practical application. Certainly some of the confusion as to what weeds are controllable, and to what extent control measures can be applied can be attributed in part to misidentification. An early report from the United States claimed that field bindweed could be controlled readily by 2, 4-D; subsequently it was found that the bindweed controlled was one of the annual species. An introduced plant, halogeton, poisonous tc- livestock now occupies some four million acres in the western Sfates and this abundance may well be due to the fact it was at first confused with Russian Thistle and had become well established before being recognized as a serious men• ace.

An exact knowledge of the life history, the series of changes through which a plant passes in the course of its development, is essential to successful control. the life histories of most of the important weeds in Canada are under investigation and a good deal of information is now available on germination behavior. An important part of weed investigation is to ascertain where different species occur in Canada. From reconnaissance surveys embracing all weeds encountered, a remarkable amount of information on distribution has been compiled. More intensive surveys are carried out to answer specific problems such as the milkweed survey during World War n, as a source of floss and rubber, ragweed surveys to establish where hay fever sufferers might expect relief, surveys for barberry and buckthorn, intermediate hosts for cereal rusts.

Such studies and other related basic studies will in time serve to improve the efficiency of control methods. However, due to the recent origin of these investigations it will be some years before weed workers will have compiled as valuable a mass of information as that available in the fields of plant pathology or entomloogy.

• • Why the difference in temper

ature registered by outsirle household thermometers? Nextdoor neighbors often find thf'ir thermometers differ by five degrees or more. Are the thermom eters at fault or does the cause lie elsewhere?

Trials at the Beaverlodge Experimental Farm, Alberta, during winter nights have shown several degrees difference between the r eadings of accurate thermometers set only a few paces apart. Dr . A. C. Carder reports that one thermometer was placed in a louvered box, technically known as a Stevenson screen; another on a north wall of an insulated building. Both were four feet above ground level. Although these thermometers were known to vary less than a degree under identical conditions they came within this accuracy only 35 per cent of the nigh ts when exposed as described. On 45 per cent of the nights they showed a difference of two de-

gr~es or more; on 21 per cent a difference of thr~e degrees or more and on 3 per cent a difference of over five degrees. The greatest difference las 7 degrees F. and occurred on a calm, clear night.

The explanation for these differences is to be found in the phenomenon of radiation. The loss of heat by the mercury or spirit in the bulb of a thermometer to colder objects within line of sight may, under certain conditions, be considerable. The reverse is also true, and the recording liquid will take on heat radiated from warmer objects. These objects need not be close at hand. Also, on clear nights a thermometer openly exposed to the sky will lose heat by radiation and so register much colder than a thermometer in a shelter. Readings from such an openly exposed thermometer may be representative of the temperature of short vegetation on the ground but will not correctly indicate the temperature of the higher air surrounding animals.

A householder cannot be expected to keep his thermometer in a louvered box. However, exposed thermometfcrs will reasonably accu rnt if certain preca 4. Never face a the • ly towards the v rootn nor t.ow~i sky. The forn cause it to r, latter low. T11 •" '11

Pigs' Snuffles Bring Home Truffles

Gourmets in France have been complaining that it's been a poor season for truffles, those delicacies which grow under the soil and are located by their strong smell by dogs or pigs.

These curious fungi-some no larger than walnuts, others four or five times as big-taste something like mushrooms, but are much dearer to buy. Though some may be found only just under the surface of the ground, most grow four or more inches down. Big truffles are sometimes found as deep as two feet.

The world's finest truffles come from Perigord, near Bordeaux, and their distinctive flavour is greatly appreciated by gourmets. Pigs there are specially trained to hunt for the truffles, digging them up with their snouts.

Lu1u, a French pig which worked every day for some years in the forests of Gascony hunting truffles, was so good at the job that her owner insured her for $10,000.

Her amazing snout "divined" the delicacies at great speed and she used, he said, "to bark like a dog when she found them."

Truffles were once valued so highly in Italy that the areas where they grew were guarded day and night against poachers. These men would sometimes send their retriever dogs through the guards to dig up the covered fungi, the dogs being trained to bring only large truffles with the best market value.

It is U11der beech trees that truffles are mostly likely to grow. Epping Forest was once famous for its truffles, but now has none. Most of Britain's truffles are now found in certain districts of Hampshire, Dorset and Wiltshire on chalky soils, but those available in restaurants are usually imported from France.

Sixty years ago the cellar of one famous London restaurant regularly housed some and imported truffles valued at $150,000.

Archery Baoming There's a boom in the ancient

sport of a r c h e r y, especially among women who realize it as an aid to beauty. This back-tothe-bow-and-arrow trend is so marked that it's even hoped to include archer,- in the Olympic Games in Rome in 1960.

Today's teenagers are taking up archery as a sport not only because it develops the chest and arms, but because it teaches the eye to concentrate.

s k o ,e t.r c orn ) ew At a Midland factory bows

and arrows are made from the high-tensile steel tubing used in Spitfires and Lancasters during the war. But a competitor at a Devon archery meeting some time ago was seen to be using very effectively a 50-lb. English yew bow which was more than a century old. It once belonged to Sir Henry Rider 'Haggard, the author.

Some of Britain's best bowmen are found in the Royal Company of Archers, a mediaeval corps which always acts as the Queen's bodyguard while she is in Scotland. These men shoot in the open at 180 and 200 yards range. The only other bowmen to shoot at similar distances are the Woodmen of Arden, at Meriden, Warwickshire. They wear picturesque slouch hats, Lincoln green coats and duck trousers.

Even by modern standards the bow and arrow can be quite an effective weapon. Just before the war a famous big game hunter out for a new thrill used bows and arrows on a shooting trip in Africa. He said he had as much SU<:cess with them as he usually had with rifles.

To prove the penetrating power of arrows, a London archer fired several through a stuffed suit of armour. A twelfth century record tells of an English archer who shot an arrow through an oak door four inches thick, t he head of the missile standing out a hand's breadth on the other side.

Stories of Robin Hoods who split peeled hazel twigs at a hundred yards are usually exaggerated. One of the rarest feats in archery is hitting the bull 's-eye three times running. That is equivalent in archery of holing in one at golf.

Archery is considered by medical men to be one of the best tonics in the world for nervy people, for it requires complete concentration and takes the mind oft problems.

Needles Expand The first recorded ready-made

garments in America were shirts for Indians, made by at least one woman at Northfield, Massachusetts, as early as 1725, and men's breeches, likewise made at Northfield. The first real readymade clothing industry, however, did not develop until about a century later, as an outgrowth of the trade in men's second· hand clothing. This trade had sprung up to meet the needs of sailors, whose stay in a port might be very short .... Rejected custom-m,i.de garments, made in custom shops during slack seassons, supplemented the stock of second-hand clothing .. ..

The manufacture of readymade clothing had become a thriving business by 1835, though it was practically limited to men's and boys' clothing of the cheaper gi,ades and to shirts. At this time the sewing of clothing was still a hand process, which cou Id be done as easily in the home as in a shop. The earliest shops, therefore, were merely cutting rooms, and the cheaper grades of material were sent to the country to be worked upon by women in their spare time. The better grades were sewed by city workers at their homes, or by journeymen in the custom tailoring shops when work was slack. Subdivision of labor had not yet appeared in the shops. except for the cutting, and it was customary for a worker to make an entire garment. Many skilled tailors, however, were helped in their work by their wives and children ....

Slowly the market expanded, the lower income groups in all parts of the country resorting more and more to ready-made · garments. The California gold rush of 1849 opened up a new market. At about the same time the technique of the industry macle vast strides forward, with the invention of the sewing machine by Elias Howe in 1846, and its improvement by Isaak M. Singer a few years later.-From "The Needle Trades." by Joel Seidman.

The Word Became Flesh -John 1:1-18

Memory Selection: The Word became flesh , and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) fu ll of grace and truth. John 1:14.

The wonder of Christmas lies in the fact that the God loved us enough, that Christ, the Eternal Son, cam~ to us in the likeness of human flesh. The Babe of Bethlehem was God Incarnate. When he was about to enter upon his ministry at the age of thirty years, John went forth to prepare the way. John did h is work humbly and well. He said, "He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me." Actually John was a few months older than Jesus. Why then did he say, "He was before me?" John knew that even before the world was created, Christ, the Word, had been with God and was God. Indeed, "All things were made by him. and without him was not anything made that was made."

Jesus Christ is "the true light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world." His own nation officially rejected him and asked their Roqian overlords to crucify him. On the third day in spite of a Roman guard he arost from the dead and emerged triumphantly from the tomb. Individuals from nearly every nation on earth are still receiving him To these he gives power to become the sons of God. A miracle takes place in the heart. Not onlJ are the sins of the past forgive1 but the person now hates th1 sins which once he loved. Nov he loves God with all his hear and his neighbour as himself.

With all the tinselry and trap, pings that have accumulated it the observance of Christmas let us be sure to centralize OUI

thoughts upon the main truth Then we will wonder, worship and obey.

May this Christmas season b1 one of great blessing to you!

"Dear Anne Hirst: Practically ?very column you write must stir memories in other readers of a similar experience. The one about the grandmother who got in wrong with her son's wife (and now misses her grandchildren) matches my own. Don't you agree that her uninvited 'helpfulness' so enraged the girl that it was the real cause for bad feeling between herself and her husband?

"Is it any wonder the young wHe forbade her children to visit their gran-imother, or that her husband stopped going there often? They blamed her for all the arguments they had.

"l had the same bad time. My husband's mother lived too close to us for comfort. Not a day passed that she didn't drop and criticize something I did: cooking, cleaning, the way I dressed, the friends I had. After too many years of such abuse, I just told her off - respectfully but sh'e got the idea - and I had the surprise of my life. She was decent enough to see my point, an1 more, she said so ! She even brought my husband and me close again, and advised a trip for us while she took over the children. I shall never forget it.

"Such a little while ago, 1 hated her. Today I love her as though she belonged to me . . . [t couldn't have happened if I had put up with her meddling,r if she hadn't been the greathearted person she is.

HAPPY NOW"

"Dear Anne Hirst: I am 19, and for a year I've gone with a young man whom I have come to love deeply. We have an 'understanding' which may mean everything -or nothing-Last week I heard he'd been seen with a girl I know, and I simply cannot believe it. He hasn't taken anyone else out since we met ...

"I know he is not wealthy, and since once he said he'd like to marry me 'some day,' I have been saving a good deal of my salary so I can help him out ..• But I hate to doubt him! What do you think?

WORRIED SICK" • Why not ask him point-• blank? Say you doubt the ru-• mour is true, but ii it is, you • will say good-bye and wish him • all happiness. Add that you • know a couple can grow tired • of seeing each other often and • regularly, so you want him to • feel free to date anyone he • chooses. • Some folks cannot bear to • see a couple happy, and they • will go to almost any extreme * to destroy the friendship. Per-* haps one of your girl friends * is jealous?

• * Why should the words ''in-law"

be an anathema to a bride? Why can't she start out being grateful that the older woman broµght up , r husband to be suc!h a grand person? If this situation faces you, tell Anne Hirst about it and find how she can guide both women to a better understanding. Address her at Box 1, 123 Eighteenth St., Nev· Toronto, Ont.

Lots of Research Went Into Big Film

One o.f the many astonishing things about "The Ten Commandments" is the colossal amount of research that went into it. For this one motion picture Cecil B. de Mille consulted-or had his research man consult- some 1,900 books and periodicals, nearly 3,000 photographs, and 30 libraries and museums in America, Europe and Africa.

Mr. de Mille's research man is Henry S. Noerdlinger, and he has written a book about his adventures in ancient Egypt. It has been published by the University of Southern California Press. "Moses and Egypt," saY.S de Mille, is the first such summary of research on background documentation for a motion picture "to be offered to the general public as well as to scholars."

With Mr. Noerdlinger's help, the producer had to decide when the Exodus occurred-that is, he had to pick an Egyptian dynasty definitely. He could not say, as some scholars do about this: "We don't know."

Again he had to decide whether Moses was in fact treated as a prince in Egypt and whether ( as (Josephus says) he was ever in charie.-'of an Egyptian army that defeat~ the Ethiopians. He had many story points to be concerned about, since the whole peri-:>d of Moses' sojourn in Egypt had to be pieced together from hintsand little more-in Philo, Eusebius, Josephus, and other historical writings.

Apart from such larger considerations, Mr. Noerdlinger was also confronted with a vast array of problems having to do with buildings, arts and crafts, sculpture and painting, furniture, costumes, hair styles, jewellery, food, and so on.

As an example of the exhaustive care required to cope with a large subject of this kind, take a look for a moment at the camel. The mystery about him is covered briefly enough in Mr. Noerdlinger's book to come within the scope of this column. At the same time, this one item serves to suggest the complexity of the whole. ·

"The camel has become the most controversial animal in Hollywood when the making of a motion picture involves ancient Egypt," Mr. Noerdlinger writes. "Scholars usually claim that camels did not become domesticated animals in Egypt proper till the Greek period, while the Bible places them there when the nomad ic patriarch Abraham sojourned in that land. At the time of Moses they are mentioned in connection with the plague of murrain in Exodus 9:3 . . .

"It can be ari::ued that the scribes who set the Old Testament down in writing unwittingly committed an anachronism. But let us consider what archaeologists have to say on the subject of camels . . .

"A. E. Roblnson writes that 'the remarkable success of the Assvrian invasion of Egypt in 671 · B.C. is attributed to the use of came];; by the eastern army.' We can assume that the Egyptians certainly did become acquainted with the camel in a painful manner, whether they wanted to or not .. .

"In one of the books consulted on this subject W. F. Albright is quoted as authority that 'our earliest certain evidence of the widespread domestication of the camel does not antedate the end of the 12th century, B.C .... but the beast wa~ previously known.

"Sir Flinders Petrie ascertains that camels may have been in use close to the borders of Egynt during the nineteenth dynasty, i.e., thirteenth century B.C. Important data is provided by R C. Thompson. who states that the time of Hammurabi (2000 or 1800 B.C.) -the era usually ascribed to Abraham-Semites of the desert were known to plv the carnal caravan trade 'rarely showing their beasts in the towns . . . That the camels were not led into the cities is not unusunl, as their drivers prefer to park them outside.'

"It can be considered as at least possible that camel cara-

1 vans penetrated into Egypt · proper without entering cities. It is also within the realm of possibility that desert Semites would bring their camels with them when they sought refuge from drought and pasturage for their animals in Egypt's open Delta ..

"Their use may have been restricted to the caravan trade plied by desert Semites, whom the Egyptians might well have scornfully ignored, since they felt rather superior about these 'despised Asiatics, whom they called ':,and dwellers.' ...

"In agreement with the Biblical text," Mr. Noerdlinger concludes, "we do show camels in a caravan and in the momentous Exodus."

GAME LAW

A beautiful girl was b~ing tried for killing her husband. The jurors retired. They knew she was guilty, but they didn''. want to sentence her because of her beauty - yet they feared to face their wives if they didn't. Finally one of them happened to remember that the dead man had been a Moose. They passed this sentence: Twenty dollars Iine for killing a Moose out of season.

HE'LL CLIP 'EM - Barber Nicholas Corsino hangs a sign in front of his Rockland shop, announcing a 10-dollar price to anyone wanting an Elvis Presley-style haircut. Barbers' code soys a customers must be given any sort of haircut he wants. So Corsino jacked up the price from the regular $1.50. So for he's had no takers. He thinks the Presley haircut is the craziest one yet.

A Happy Christmas to alt · the readers of this column. Yes, Christmas again - and if it were not for the calendar it would be hard to realize that a year has slipped away since I passed along that s:ime greeting before.

Each Christmas is a milestone along the road oI life. During the winter we neasure time by speaking events as happening "before or after Christma~". And we have a way of comparing on" Ch!''S"..na.,..~1 .,_nother ... "remember - that was our first Christmas away from the old home·· . . . and another "we celebrated Christmas in our new home that year, with the grandparents and our first baby" ... or again - ''remember how happy we were three years ago because our little girl who had been so ill had been spared to us?" And there are sad memories too ... there is the inevitable feeling of loss because some that we had dearly loved are no longer with us. That is the pattern of life and we have to accept it. But, by and large, Christmas is what we make it. We can add to the regrettable commercialism of the season by being too lavish in our spending, forgetting that the ten-dollar gift, hastily chosen, cannot give as much pleasure as a less expensive present upon which loving thought and care has been given to the choosing.

Christmas is a time of happiness and goodwill. But can we be happy and good-tempered if we become involved in a mad rush of Christmas shopping? Can we blame the children for being irritating and boisterous if we ourselves cannot take time to talk with them quietly: to enter into their little secret plans for Christmas giving. How many children are given a dollar or two at the last Jllinute and told to choose something for the grandparents? "What shall you get? Oh, I don't know - look around the stores - you'll likely !ind something I'' Can we blame the children if they grow up taking little thought in either giving or receiving? Don't we sometimes lose sight of the reason for exchanging gifts? The Three Wise Men brought gifts to the Christ-child because they wanted to honour him and to show their great joy at the Saviour's birth. By that same token it was originally the custom to give gifts to those we love and in that way show our affection, making each one feel how glad we were to have him with us. If we would hold to that principle we could then never go very far wrong with our giving. "It isn't the gift that counts, but the thought behind it." That is a trite saying, I know, but it is also very true.

Christmas, along with practical expressions of peace and goodwill, extend to those who have sought refuge in our own country?

Christmas is such a wonderful time. Twinkling coloured lights relieve the drabness of the streets. Gaily trimmed Christmas trees are a joy to young and old. Greeting cards bringing with them• me3sagcs from near and far. Do you read those greetings? D0 you stop to think that the vers·• inside didn·t come to y,cu by ::....,--,ti:ent? More than likely your [r i :nd or relative s2nt the card with th:it particular verse just especially for you. A little sentimental perhaps -but then. Christm:is is a time for sentiment. So won't you take time to read your Christmas cards and enjoy the nice little verses?

Christmas - although a lovely season - still has its drawbacks. At home and abroad; in the streets and in the stores, there is noise and excitement. We cannot escape it entirely, nor would we want to. But too much is too much. We owe it to ourselves to plan a little time for rest and quietness. A half-hour, perhaps only ten minutes, to be completely alone. Yes, even on Christmas Day. During that quiet time little grievances - if we have any - will disappear; tiredness will vanish; a new appreciation of the good people around us may come as quite a surprise a-Iter all. We shall find ourselves refreshed, ready to work again - or talk or play - possessed of a strange inner peace, as if for awhile we had walked with God, and perhaps in some inadequate way thanked him for the miracle of the Saviour's birth.

Yes, there will be many things to be thankful for at Christmas time but perhaps the greatest of all will be that gift to ourselves - that short period in which to be absolutely alone. It sounds easy but busy wives and harassed mothers know it is not. But do try to give yourselves this gift -

Modern Etiquette. • •

Q. Is it really proper to chew gum in public places?

A. This d e p e n d s entirely upon just what kind of a cnewer you are. If you are the nervous kind of chewer, then it is better if you refrain from public gum:::hewing. If, however, you can keep gum in your mouth without its being obvious to others, there is nothing wrong with it.

Q. l.f a man is entertaining a group of friends in a restaurant or hotel dining room, in what order do they go to the table?

A. If the headwaiter leads the way to the table, the host goes first to seat his guests. The women of the party follow, and the men last.

Q. When eating olives, is it proper to put the entire olive into the mouth, and after the meat "as been eaten, remove the stone from the mouth?

A. 1To. The olive should be held in the fingers and nibbled off the stone.

Q. How is the formal marriage announcement worded?

A. Usually this way: "Mr. and Mrs. Henry G. Harrison have the honour to announce the marriage of their daughter, Judith Ann, to Mr. Richard Hoyt Hayes on Saturday, the sixteenth of June one thousand nine hundred and fifty-six in the City of Montreal."

Q. W h e n selecting grammed hand.kerchiefs man or woman, which :,hould be selected, that first or the last name?

A. For a man it is always the last. For a woman, the last is customary, but the first is permissible.

Here is a timely little poem by Anna Fisher:

"The Strangest Things" "Some ho\\ God weaves the

strangest things, into a pattern fair,

Re took an angel song, a star, a He-brew peasant pair,

Some shepherds on Judean hills, and unknown Wise Men three;

A stable cold and dark and damp, a manger 'neath an inn,

And now, a weary world kneels hope.fully

Before the Babe of Bethlehem."

Tramp - '·But lady, every Christma:; for twenty-five years 1've r eceived something from this housl:! - since before you ,vere born."

Miss Fortyodd - "Oh. well thafs different. I'll see '"-'hat I ran do."

now, and every day until Christma~. By the New Year it may have become quite a helpful habit.

Perhaps you will say "Well, that isn't much of a Christmas column.'' No doubt you are right, especially as I still can't think of a better greeting than to say - "A Very Happy Christmas to you all."

GOING ... GOING

The 'auctioneer was a lastminute substitute and obviousl7 new to the business. Sales hadn", been going well, and the crol'rf was losing interest.

Clutching the next item that came to hand the young man announced: "What am I offered tor this beautiful bust of Robert Burns?''

"That isn't Burns,'' called a voice from the audience, "that's Shakespeare."

"Well, the joke's on me,'' the auctioneer laughed nervously. "That just shows what I know about the Bible."

r

Is Pearl Harbor Truth St ill Hidden?

(Second of Two Dispatches) by Douglas Larsen

NEA Staff Correspondent

Washington - (NEA) - Fifteen years after the disaster of Pearl Harbor some of the key figures still insist that a suceessful conspiracy has kept the full facts from the American public.

Some, like Adm. Husband E. Kimmel who was head of the Pacific fleet and now is retired at Groton, Conn., believe that the full story eventually will be told.

"The real facts exist in personal diaries which have been kept by persons who know the !acts and human vanity will eventually force them to light," he says hopefully.

On the other hand former Sen. Homer Ferguson, who served on the joint Pearl Harbor congressional investigating c.:ommittee and is now a judge o! the U.S. Court of Military Appeals, thinks that the full story never will be told.

FAITH ON WttEELS - The mobile chopel which Pope Pius XII dispatched from Rome to minis:er to the spiritual needs of the Hungarian refugees is shown at Eisenstadt, Austria, where a Hungarian-speaking priest reads the first mass in the rear of the "bus-church".

"The truth of how the Roosevelt Administration egged the Japanese into launching the attack has died forever with Franklin D., Cordell Hull and Henry L. Stimson." Judge Ferguson insists. "and th.:ise still alive, like Gen. Marshall, will never tell all they know."

Those persons who figured prominently in the disastrous events of Pearl Harbor and are gtil] alive were interviewed all e>ver the U.S. for this review on the 16th anniversary of the event. Some had new information to offer. Most of them agree with Judge Ferguson.

During the past year, however, a book called "The Cause flf Japan," written by Shigenori Togo, the wartime foreign minister of Japan, does shed important new light on the attack. Togo finished the book while in prison as a war criminal and died a few years later. A key section of his book says:

"It was disclosed at the (war crimes trial) that the naval task force under Admiral Nagumo had sailed on 26 November under orders to strike Pearl Harbor. We (the civilian Japanese flfficials) had, of course, no knowledge of the plan; it was the invariable practice of the high command not to divulge to civilian officials any scrap of information bearing on these highly secret operations."

If this is true the actions of top officials in Washington can Ile better understood. The key Japanese messages decoded in Washington, which commanders at Pearl Harbor never got but claim would have alerted them for action, were all sent .loy Togo.

• The logical question thus rosed is this: If the sender of the intercepted messages himself didn't know the impending attack on Pearl Harbor how could Washington have deduced that from his messages?

Adm. HaroJa R. Stark, then Chief of Naval Operations and today retired on his Pennsylvania farm. supports the oftrepeated claim that the intercepted messages did not give a positive clue to the attack on Pearl Harbor.

"I have explored this question in my mind hudreds of times," be says, "and I can only conclude that I sent Adm. Kimmel Ill of the information he needed to have to keep him as well inrormed of events as we were In Washington."

ThP item which raises the !fU€stion of Togo's accuracy -ind Stark's judgment - is cited by Adm. Kimmel. It's this mesrage from Togo to a Japanese agent in Honolulu sent Nov.

SALL Y'S SALLIES

'"At least, sir, it's one way of balancing our ledger."

18, 1941, intercepted and decoded in Washington:

"Please report on the following areas as to vessels anchored therein: Area N, Pearl Harbor. Mamala Bay (Honolulu), and the areas adjacent thereto. Make your investigations with great secrecy."

"This information was never supplied me," Adm. Kimmel states. The message strongly suggets that Togo was in on the Pearl Harbor plan, too. But this now becomes another one of the controversies which remain unsolved 15 years later.

• • Another moot question is why

Gen. Marshall's warning to Pearl Harbor, sent early enough on Dec. 7, to at least have prov ided time to prepare the guns for the attack, was given to Western Union instead of the Signal Corps.' The message was handed by Gen Marshal) to Col. Edward F. French but arrived after thP attack had started.

Col. French, retired in Washington, explains:

"Static was so bad our communications men had lost Honolulu, so I gave it to WPstern Union to handle. This had been done previously on other meshages and worked fine. Gen Gerow is the man who knows all about this."

Gen. Leonard T. Gerow was assistant chief of staff of the Army at the time and blamed for neglect in a minority congressional report on Pearl Harbor. He is now a banker in Petersbur g, Va.

"Col French did what was right," Gen. Gerow insists today "But I have always said that if it is ever shown that my staff made any, mistakes I was willing to assume all blame."

In the same category of moot questions is the reason why the young Air Corps Lt. Kermit A. Tyler i,gnored the warnings of approaching Jap bombers spotted on radar by Pvt. Joe Lockard Tyler is a lieutena?1t-colonel at Ent Air Force Base, Colorado Springs, today. He recalls:

• "Driving to the information

center at Pearl Harbor befnre that morning, I flipped on the local radio station playing Hawaiian music with no voice mterruptions and recalled that the station itself served as a homing beacon when flights of B- l 7's were coming in. So when I got the r adar report later, I assumed it was tr, ,.,se BI 7's. I had no way of k'11'lwing these were enemy airc,ait."

Anci so it remains. 15 y€ars later.

The bitterness of those who have felt that they were unjustly accused, or that top officials in Washington deliberately provoked the attack to get the U.S. into World War II has now softened

For example, Judge Ferguson now believes that President Roosevelt wanted the J aps to strike the first blow but had no idea that it would be as devastating as it turned out to be. Adm. Kimmel feels the same way.

"We can only hope and pray that our top military officials have learned a lesson from Pearl Harbor that sticks with them today," Judge Ferguson says. "In an atomic age the error of judgment which caused the Pearl Harbor disaster would spell the end of America."

POWs - That barbed wire encloses part of the estimated 2,000 Egyptians held prisoners in an Israeli prisoner of war camp "somewhere in the Sinai Desert", They will be set free followIng a final agreement by Israel and Egypt on terms concerning fhe disputed area.

Hungry Burglars Thieves who broke into a con

tinental restaurant in a London suburb not long ago found so much appetizing food there that they decided to st:ly to supper

They spread a cloth on the floor and settled down to a feast of cold chicken, water melons, cheese and wine before leavine with $600 worth of cigarettes.

The average burglar is usually in too much of a hurry to dine "on the job," but when he does he eats plenty. An impudent and hungry thief who raided a Swiss house ate a sumptuous meal of roast turkey, ham and salad folJowed by a large tin of fruit salad and a half pint of cream which he found in the absent householder's pantry.

B efore leaving he wrote a note, in disguised handwriting, complaining that he had been "unable to find any good wine to fiPish up with." The note added: "If you can't be more hospitable I won't come again!"

Hungry burglars have occasionally been convicted later' because they left behind teeth marks on appl~ cores or on the rind of cheese. A French thief who had just been fitted with a new set of false teeth whlch

were giving him trouble, took them out to have a snack, when he was robbing a baker's shop. Unluckily for him, he forgot to take them with him when he left with his loot. He was traced and arrested.

Another burglar concealed h imself overnight in a Paris cinema and was found by a caretaker next day doubled up with acute indigestion. Beside h im on the floor lay about a dozen boxes and cartons which had contained the chocolates and sweets he had rifled from the c i n e m a • s confectionery booth. He had eater. the lot -and had to be rushed to hospital.

Food was also the undoing of a bad-tempered thief who forced an entry into a big grocery store in Indiana. Enraged becaues he could find no money, he mixed together on the floor what a police witness later described as "the world's biggest omeltte."

He broke four dozen eggs, poured half a dozen sacks of flour on to them and then added large quantities of sugar, pork, ham, bacon and syrup.

When the man got back to his lodgings his observant landlady noticed traces of flour and syrup on his shoes and coat. Early next day she 'phoned the police, saying she felt suspicious.

Within an hour the "omelette maker" was arrested and jailed.
