A sticker on some cars reads, "The family that prays together - holds together." The family altar is unknown in most homes. What a pity! Quarrelling and bickering have no place in a home where the. family prays to- gether. If there arises a differ- ence of opinion, prayer will help to solve the problem. A husband' and wife are on . the verge: of quarrelling should say something like this: "Let's not be foolish. We took each other for better or worse. The 'Bible says, 'What therefore God hath joined together let not man Now let us start reading the Bible every day and praying together. We've: both made mistakes.

Heave around on these staunchions, now, and let's see how bright you can make them." The two staunchions were the steel staunchions just forward of the after-capstan. To clean them, I had to stand on the grating; it was at this point that I began to understand what a miracle the ship was. I was standing on a grating, a work of art, such as I had never seen. How had men cut and fitted hard white wood so exquisitely into this lattice? The coamings round the grating, -supporting it, were other mir- acles; but nothing to the as- tounding deck. I began now to appreciate the deck; it was of a darkish' wood; and all the deck was laid with it. ., . It was of a hardness which I had never thought wood could have. . . . "Looking at the deck?" Dick said. "It's African oak. When it is wet tomorrow, you can take off your shoes and stockings and slide on it barefoot; it is quite impossible for you to get a splin- ter. Now, heave round." He had given me a tin contain- ing sand-paper, rags, and a sort of brick; I took some sand-paper and 'began upon a staunchion. .

"Just watch me for a moment." Certainly, his method made the steel like silver; I found that I could do it, and that it was great fun. "Those will be your staun- chions, every morning," Dick said.

Their skin is a pale brown, not dark; in that respect many of them can- not be distinguished from a South European. They wear a toga like upper garment and trousers - of home-woven wool, and on the feet long Tibetan boots of dull red. cloth, soled with hide, which come up al- most to the knees. . . . Even in high camps the first thing I have often heard in the morning is the chanting' of prayers from the Sherpas' tents. . ...

Or to be more. specific, one five-months-old puppy and two full 'grown cats. Our recent dogless state be- came less and less to our lik- ing so last Wednesday a friend and 1 went down to Oakville to the Humane Society to see what they had in the line of waifs and strays. Honestly, it is - a wonder I didn't come home with six dogs -- there were so "many that were appealing_and needed a home. However, my choicé was finally 'narrowed down to a stray black and white collie, probably about two years .| "and one part: collie' who had been sent in to be sold hecause the owner had another dog that was frightfully jealous, The col- lie was a lovely dog but as he was a stray the caretaker had no knéwledge of his past history: and was afraid he: might stay ~ with us for awhile and then wander away again. The pup, hereafter referred to as "Mac" has all the markings of a Ger- man Shephertl except that his nose is too long and his -ears flop over a bit. But he is as keen as mustard and already he has 'appointed himself as my guardian. . It was after six' when I got home that day. Partner and both the cats were in the house. Mac came in on the run, Up went the cats' backs and for a moment 'I thought the fur was going 'to fly. Mac was friendly enough but not so the. cats. I put them both outside but that wasn't much good.

So yesterday Partner and I rigged up a gateway for the top of the stairs so now our friend must stay where he be- longs -- but under protest. Our visit to the Humane So- ciety Kennel was quite interest- ing and it is certainly a busy place and quite obviously neces- sary and doing good work. There was a variety of dogs -- two big white Samoyeds -- which most of us think of them as sleigh dogs. Another white dog had been brought in for ob- servation as it "had bitten: a child -;another -- a collie -- was in for observation for biting its owner, There was a beagle hound and a number.of smaller dogs and a three-legged cat with three kittens, one of which she wouldn't feed. There: was also a monkey who resented our presence very noisily, Only "a few of the .dogs were strays: Others, like Mac, had been brought in, in the hope.a new "home might be found for them. While we were there a woman came along with a cocker spaniel that was to be destroyed. I asked her what was the matter with it. "Oh, nothing," she an- swered.. YA friend left it with me and I don't want it." As she spoke, the poor little thing, al- ready shut up in a cage, looked up at us. with its big brown pleading eyes.
