So he built a house of no right angles; using the hexagon as. the basis of measurements and design, Hence, Mr, Brewster has come up with something 'unique in the history of prefabricated con- struction. The benefits ara mani. fold, he said, For the hexagon, he added, provides greater floor Space for relative wall space, greater storage capacity, and far 'greater strength for the con- struction unit; : It also has the unlimited variatibns of design and size from - an extremely small number of basic shapes and pieces. Mr, 'Brewster has reduced the materials used to 16 standard parts: which can. be factory-cut and mass produced, : Many of the parts make use of smaller waste pieces of tim. ber that ordinarily drift from the orthodox construction job' into the scrap heap. All the wall units have a laminated frame; lined on the inside with hex- agonal sections, each built/around three diamond shapes and fin- ished on the outside with a sheathing 'of rough-cast plaster, Mr. Brewster's own house con- sists of seven equal-sized rooms or units, all opening from a central hall and joined by quaintly shaped archways which can be curtained or fitted with sliding doors. ' The only discordant note to Mr. Brewster is the rectangular bath, but the plumber just could not bring himself to follow the suggestion to "knock the corners oft." Mrs. Brewster, who shares her husband's enthusiasm for this "beewise" style of living, finds their home a joy to keep in order, "UNDER"NOURISHED ~ Noutlshed under water, that Is.

Spectator is Carol Parr, advantage of Prisoners Escaped As Guards Battled One moonlit night at Tittmon- ng Castle prison camp on the Austro-Bavarian frontier, to- wards the end of the war, three figures lay waiting in a ditch Inside the rampart, They were Giles Romilly, Sir Winston Churchill's nephew, and two Dutchmen, i When the time seemed right, they clambered up an embank- ment to the top of the rampart, Then, their hands clutching its gritty top, they contemplated the ninety-foot cliff drop to the ground. Then a sentry saw them. Any second now the alarm would be ° given, They wouldn't stand a |" chance, They'd better g0 back. "I don't want to come back," Romilly said, "If you are prepared to take a chance , . ," said the other, Romilly nodded. "Well -- good luck!" As Romilly began going down the rope, holding with hands and feet -- and soon was whizzing round, scare¢ to death. Moon, castle, space whirled around him. 'His hands ' were being shaved as by razor-blades. The abyss seemed fathomless. A prayer _ for survival, then a merciful bump. He rolled over. Silence. Then a hiss; and from a bush-clump loped, head down, a fellow- escaper. Certain that the third man. Van den Heuvel, would . not be able to follow them, they waited only five minutes, then shot away up a slope, over a netted fence, on to a road and s6uth by compass. Romilly, who had spent two years in Colditz, the grim fort. ress for escapee "naughty boys," explains in "The Privileged Nightmare" by himself and Michael Alexander, how Cap- tain Van den Heuvel, famed or- -ganizer of escapes, had planned this one when they were trans- ferred to Tittmoning, Assistants made a camera With which they took photographs for attaching to the essential police-pass, also hand-forged. "Vandy" also provided them with a plausible story: they were foreign workers, two Dutch, one French, employed on inspecting and mainttaining a complicated type of baking ma- chinery. : A forged letter from their em- ployers stated that their duties required them to pass through MERRY-GO-ROUND-- produced this forms) and UCLA during a recent court struggle. the brass ring; won 104-92, 4 od Fast try for the ball by nearly all concerned merry-go-mixup of the Dayton Flyers (dark unle UCLA caught EE A strong plea for a clear-cut agricultural policy was made a few days ago in the House of Commons by F. S. Zaplitny (member for Dauphin, Man.). Mr. Zaplitny said that he wanted to repeat the statement that had been made so often by 'by members of all parties "that agriculture is entitled to its fair share of the national income, He said that he was not going to ask for "hand-outs" or '"pre- ferred treatment," but wanted to outline "a policy which will, as near as it is possible to do: 80, bring to agriculture its fair share of the national income."

As to clothing, Romilly had a con- verted beret and zipped cor- duroy jacket, though his trous- ers were obviously military. They arrived at Freilassing during an air raid, Romilly had- his lacerated hands disinfected and bandaged by a white-coated girl in a chemist's, ! Then, learning that a train was expected to leave for Traunstein they went to the sta- tion. André, the Dutch lieuten- ant, was a long time at the ticket window; when he turned away a clerk came out and es- corted them to an office, where they were passed over to two uniformed security officers with German police-dogs. Their papers were in order but they lacked the train-travel permit required by. foreign workers, so were taken to the police statiun, where André tried to explain why, While Romilly waited, watch: ing him gesturing, expostulating to an official, a sergeant and a lieutenant near him began to row violently, "You allow your- self to be too much led by your « wife," the lieutenant screamed in the sergeant's ear, Infuriated, the sergeant smashed his fists on 'the table with such force that the typwriter jumped into the y al ~~ r. Then "Achtufigl Achtung!" barked the radio, warning all military and police posts of the escape of two prisoners-of-war from ° Tittmoning, describing them and ordering that they be - arrested, To Romilly's intese relief, the Germans were too occupied with their private row. Nor did any- one else noticed the warning, Soon André returned, having got the travel-permits, and they were shown out by an officer, "Be sure to call at the police station in Traunstein," he said. In a Munich suburb they eventually found comfortable lodgings with the wife of an ab- sent S.S. sergeant; then, hear- ing that the' Americans were heading for the city, Romilly borrowed' a neighbour's cycle and rod along the Frankfurt road to meet them. The fight- ing was over and they were free at last. Romilly and Alexander --- a relative of the Field-Marshal -- tell vividly of their two years in Colditz with other prominent prisoners held as possible hos- tages." Alexander also gives a gra- phic account of the fortunes of the others under the final break- ~ up of German resistance in this dramatic book, JUST ADVERTISING Poke -- "Bill Perkins must be happy and prosperous -- always cordial and smiling broadly." Moke -- "No, it's just that new upper plate he's so proud of." calls for the establishment by the federal government of "a policy of forward pricing on all: agricultural commodities, which would bear a 95 per cent 'parity relationship to other goods and services, thus bringing about stability in agriculture ~ and strengthen our whole- economy." The honourable member for Dauphin cafe out strongly in support of this resolution from which he evolved a number of necessary 'measures, the first and foremost of which is a 8ys- tem of marketing boards. He asked for assistance to those provinces which are now trying to organize . livestock marketing boards with the ule timate aim of setting' up a national livestock marketing board. More important still was the establishment of floor prices for livestock products, which Mr. Zaplitny submitted wds a-mat- ter beyond 'the financial pos- sibilities of any one province 'and a responsibility of the fed- eral government. Two Price System Mr. Zaplitny went on to dis cuss what is called, in the opin- ion of this writer erroneously + 50, a {wo price system; in other Words one set price for the home mhrkét and lower competitive prices for export. 'He explained that this was regular practice as far as industry is concerned. This column has always pro- pounded the idea of setting commodity prices for home con- sumption and to export. any "surpluses" at world prices. The question to be answered is whether this should be done by the government or by the farm- ers themselves through their own marketing agencies. Price Spreads Investigation The honourable member also urged the government to ih- vestigate the spreads of prices between producer and consum- er. He produced figures which show that wheat for which the farmer. received 96 cents to $1.25 costs $7.28 when retailed in the form of bread. Oats for which the farmer received 20 "to 52 cents per bushel bring $3.62 a bushel when turned into rolled oats for human consump- . tion, Barley for which the farm= ers are paid 50 to 92 cents a bushel, is worth $4.32 in the form of dry malt, and if turn- ed into liquid malt as much as $9. f For the People of Canada Mr: Zaplitny ended his speech with an appeal to national pride, genuine love of the Ca- nadian soil, the appreciation of the possibilities in our country and the knowledge of the great- er things that can be done for the benefit of the people of Canada, It would be useful for farm- ers to study this speech and to discuss the proposed policies at their meetings.

But his complaints were a mere whisper compared to the howl put up by today's young- sters if they have to walk more than a half-dozen blocks tq school. According to foot doctors, how- ever, there may be some merit to Junior's complaints. The doctors say that Junior's feet are probably worse off than Grandpa's ever were, Why? Well, Grandpa's parents knew more about foot care than we do -- his generation did a great deal more walking and thus were more conscious of shoes and foot comfort. Today's youngsters do a lot of their daily travel in cars and buses, and parents are apt to neglect their feet -- which is why school health examinations turn up the fact that far too many children are wearing un- suitable and outgrown shoes, The pair you bought Junior in the Fall may still have a lot of .| wear in them, but chances are they're cramping his feet as he steps out in 1955 -- and that can be the beginning of foot troubles that can plague him all his life, With four months of school and -rough play behind them, midwinter is a good time to check your children's shoeg it You want them to walk into the new school term on healthy feet. extra time and care when you buy Junior new shoes, special- ly as far as fit and materials are concerned. Make certain that the soles are made of flexible leather that bends easily with the foot. But no matter how much your youngster likes a particular style, don't let him leave the store in badly fitting shoes. Have his feet measured standing up -- they'll spread naturally with his weight on them, The proper length allows three-quarters of an inch between his big toe and the tip of the shoe, You can be certain the width is correct if the upper leather across the toes cah be humpped up slight ly between your fingers. The heel fit should be snug, with no up-and-down slipping as he walks, 'See that Junior tries on both shoes and walks around the store in them to check for com- fort. Sometimes one foot is: slightly larger than the other, and he should be fitted for the: larger one. : It your wife Is quick on the draw, be wary of a joint bank account, And be sure to take a little A TRIAL -- EVERY SUFFERER OF RHEUMATIC PAINS OR NEURITIS SHOULD TRY DIXON'S REMEDY, MUNRO'S DRUG STORE, 335 Elgin, Oftawa $1.25 Express Prepaid NAMELESS Su Remedy, an Ointment that relieves inus, Hayfever, Headcolds, in 10 Jars or money back, Convincing Trial $1.10, Address: Purity Co, Exeter, Ontario.
