Even in Elizabethan® Lon- don rat-catchers cried through the streots: JRats or mice! Ha' ye any rats, mice, polecats or wease.s: Or ha' ye any old sows sick with the 'measles? I can kill them, and I can kill moles, and 1 caa kill vermin that oreepeth up and creepeth down and : th into holes." "At the recent time the utmost care i¥ taken to guard against the spread of the plague or other diseases by 'means of rats. For instance, when a boatload of horses or other animals is taken aboard in a foreign country, they are made to step through a farge metal disk, past which the rats cannot go. Ships at plague ports keep away from the docks as much as possible, to avoid the danger of taking on some of the animals. Rodents in Europe Other members of the rodent fam- {ly are responsible for considerable 'the globes. Periodically the Scandi- aavian countries of Sweden, Norway and Lapland are visited by hordes of lemmings, short-tailed rats about five inches long. A few years ago Arctic Lapland was invaded by a lemming army. The migrating host, according to an observer, marched in a line seventy miles wide and twenty miles deep. They drove everything be- fore them, destroying crops and pol luting, rivers and lakes, and finally drowned themselves in the sea. Aus: tralia has a scourge of rabbits which come each year and must be fought with poisons and traps by every {andowner, in accordance with law. 'The present invasion of locusts, which has spread from Africa to Greece, Rumania, Yugoslavia and oth- er parts of Southeastern Europe, ls probably one of the most destructive and spectacular ever experienced. As in Bible tmes, the insects "covered the ontire earth, so that the land was darkened, and they did eat every herb in the land and every fruit." Be- lieved to have come from the vicinity of Lake Chad In Central Africa, they penetrated Senegal, the Sudan, Egypt, Palestine, Morocco, Arabia, Syria, Al- geria and Transjordania. Their rav- ages have already brought property damage mounting to many. millions of dollars, and other millions have been apent in a'témpts to keep the pests under control. Back to Trench Warfare. All the; resources of modern sci- ence and the agencies of destruction «devised in the World War have been employed along the North African front, Trenches have heen dug and filled with poisoned bait. Batteries of "flame-throwers," built on the lines of the "Sammenwerfers" introduced by the Germans, have been used. at night when the invaders have settled down on,the land. Afrplanes have flown over the infested sector and scattored poison gases. About 20,000 men have been fighting the locust'in French North Africa and more than 10,000 in Palestine. The rich Nile jands and the date farms of Arabla have been endangered. i A swarm of the locusts may be as much at twelve miles long, and these tremendous clouds fly several hun: dred miles without alighting. When they do come down, every green thing 18 'quickly consumed. But the great. ost danger is from egg-laying, which takes place on a huge scale. If allow- ad to hatch, the young locusts form a huge, hungry army. It is estimated that more than 50,000 eggs are hatch- ed to the square yard whem a swarm settles.

Each year our fishermen land between 800,000,000 .and 900,000, 000 pounds of fish, Of this amount less than one-quarter is consumed In must be found abroad. of the Pacific, invaluable inshore fish- eries, and many prolific inland areas. The United 'ates lands approxi- mately two billion pounds of fish each year. Canadian fishermen could land as much or 'more if they were assured of a market for their catch. If our Canadian people were to consume a reasonable quota it would be a big, encouragement to the, fishermen and a tremendous stimulus to the indus- try. It is reckoned by scientists who have made an exhaustive study of the question, that pound for pound, fish is as rich in nutrients as meat, and in some instances richer, In ad- dition there is a tremendous varia- tion in price between fish and meat which makes the use of the former a! very economical practice. And not, only that, Sir James Crichton-Browne, an eminent British food specialist, maintains that for working people of head as well as those who work with the hands--fish is source of energy quite necessary to enable them to carry on thelr work. Fish is taore easily digested than meats and for this reason is parti- cularly adapted for those of feeble constitutions and sedentary occupa- tions. It one thinks for an instant that a man engaged at hard manual labor cannot subsist on a fish diet, let him reflect upon the history of the Jap- anese. They are essentially, a flsh- consuming people thelr per capita use of sea foods being more than two hundred pounds a year. Still they are regarded as one of the best physi- cally-developed races on earth, and they certainlp have sacrificed nothing in mental astuteness through their de- pendence on fish, The dietary requirements of a man engaged in light to moderate employ- ment is estimated at .26 pounds of protbin and 3,050 calories per day.

Honey Cream Waffles Waffles and honey have always been associated, but one usually thinks of this association as serving honey over the waffle and not baking it .in the batter, When the poured batter contains honey, a more crisp and yet tender waffle is obtained. Most every- one likes a good crisp waffle, but a variation from the ordinary waffle is more than enjoyable. By using tho regulation honey batter and adding nuts or dried fruits, one may obtain a truly delicious result. For your unexpected visitor try a honey pecan or honey date waffle. Basic Recipes for Honey Cream Waffles 1 egg heaten very lightly, 4 tea- spoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 cups milk, % cup margarine (melted), 2 cups flour, 3 tablespoons honey.

By cleaving, to the good, one can overcome the bad more effectively than through a censorship, he believes. "Art does and should differ from lite. Civilization is based on omis- sion and selection.
