That it is possible to export vast quantities of food and still meet home needs is shown by the fact that Canada in the past twoeyears has sent over 80o million pounds of pork, 700 million pounds of apples, 215 million pounds of cheese, two and a half million pounds of evaporated milk. 1o million pounds of eggs, 52 million pounds of canned tomatoes, I3 and a half mil- lion potinrls of honey and 36 million pounds of beans. People here may have had to pay some- what higher prices for these foods but few had I: go without them.

Russian Winter

Mr. llaisky, the Soviet Ambassador f3 tI-ie Court of St. James’, warned the allies of Rus- sia a few days ago against any complacency over the approach of winter. He said many amateur Slratcgisls talked “glibly about the weather and about Ht-ncrztl Winter and General Mud-....

Unlike some mutiicipalitics in Canada, thc Federal Government at “lashingttin has frown- ed on the prolongation of Daylight Saving Timc. This decision was reached of‘ a thorough sur- vey of the power sittiation over the Linilcd States and analysis of tlic cffccl of continued daylight saving in the Southeastern region. However, the commission warned that if cir- cumstances warranted, it might recmnmentl re- sumption of the plan in sonic parts of the country or its establishment where it did not now exist.

Hundreds of illegal gold wcdtling rings have made their appearance on the market in London and the provinces, and hnntlrctls of ivninvn have been wearing them all ignorant of thc fact that their bridal token offends against the Wctlding Rings Act of I855. This law requires that ivecl- ding rings must be submitted for hallniarking to one of the only six assay offices in England and Scotland. A gold wetlding ring is illegal in Britain unless it bears one of these marks: a leopard's head, anchor, York rose, sword between three wheat-sheaves, a three-towered catsle or a tree, fish and bell.

The elevator and produce storage in U.S.A. at present is at a minimum never previously reached. This scarcity of space, due to record surplus of grain supplies, has cattsed the back- ing up of an unusually large amount 0f stocks on farms and elsewhere in temporary storage. Elevator men estimated that about l0 per cent, of their space must be kept empty so that stored grain may be handled properly. The’ Department of Agriculture reported that as of September I approximately 84 per cent of the commercial grain storage capacity at 4o terminals was oc- cupied. Since then there has been further con- traction of available room arid the corn and soy bean harvests will soon be in full swing.

With the modern techniques of war, these fac- tors have been considerably minimized, and per- haps by now General Winter has been reduced to a coioiicl, and General Mud to a major or a lieutenant."

On the Russian front, however, the officers are not discounting the value winter will be to them. A dcspatch to the Globe and Mail from the (‘cntml IIu-sian Front quotes a lieutenant- gcncral as saying the bad roads have already FWllICC-(l very largely the manoeuvrability of the Gornmn armies, and that winter, with its cold, should create even greater difficulties for the invnrlvt-g “livery Ritssian has his sheepskin Cont.

Nod Boom In Wall Street

There is one place in the United States, says the Alntictary‘ Times, where there are now no Siyils of an infkttioiiary boom and, paradox- itwtlb- rthtttgh that place is Wall Street, the erst- ultiiv innit ill liriullls when [JTICCS WCFC rising in tht- t‘irl'llll‘y.

again to revise ideas of how the war is going. Britain has shown no signs of being able to re- - 'st a major Nazi attack on Africa—either to- ward Suez or Dakar. Also, if Russia falls, the ']apanese are likely to cut loose—falling first on Siberia, later on Singapore, the Indies, Austral- ia. Even if no A.E.F. ever-goes to Europe, the ,time may come when the U.S. may need to con- lsider the advisability of sending an expedition to keep the Germans out of key points in West Africa facing South America, or the Japanese out of the Indies. For Anglo-American control of the seas cannot be a matter of complecency so long as the Germans can romp unchecked over the land.

Physiological studies of the dwellers of the Andes Mountain in South America have re- vealed the existence of an entirely new human being, best described as the "stratosphere man," who constitutes biological entity radically differ- ent in several respects from other branches of mankind. The new species of man, also refer- -' red to as “the altitude man," was described for the first time at one of a week's symposia in I celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the Un- - iversity of Chicago by Dr. Carlos Monge of the lUniversity of San Marcos, Lima, Peru, found- ‘ed in i551, the oldest institution of learning in lthe Western’ Hemisphere. Life at two or three ]miles above sea level, where the system has to ' become adapted to get along on little more than half rations of oxygen, as compared with dwellers in the lowlands, has transformed fpermanent inhabitants of the Andean uplands

There is a heavier variety to take the place of north lights, roof lights or other glass on which. there is a heavy strain. It equals quarter-inch plate glass in strength. A third device is a lighter form of cellirlcse netting fixed to window panes by adhesive. A square of plate glass covered with this netting was put under a spring-loaded hammer which was brought down upon it travelling one-eighth of an inch beyond the point of impact. The shattered glass remained neatly in position under the netting.
