YDRO SHOP STRATFORD The Dirigible Airship The United States will have a heav- fer-than-air flying ship, under the ap- propriation of 3% million dollars for that purpose made by the last Con- gress. It will not be as large as the ill-fated "Hindenburg," but it will mark another effort on the part of this country to develop what has been, on the whole, the safest method of air travel. Of course, the new U.S. airship will use safe helium gas instead of inflam- mable hydrogen for its lifting power. It is not yet beyond possibility that we may supply helium from govern- ment-controlled gas wells for the new German airship. Commander Rosen- dahl, our navy's foremost authority on such matters, has just returned from Germany and confirms the belief that the dirigible airship plays no part in military preparations over there. Its futility as a military machine was de- monstrated in the World War. Its use in war is, in effect, limited to service as a naval scout. If the reports are true that gas wells containing helium have been discover- ed in Brazil, there is nothing to stop the Zeppelin company from resuming its trans-Atlantic passenger service. Those who believe in the great possi- bilities of the airship will welcome that outcome. Quite naturally, sports fans are ex- cited over tonight's Michigan-Ontario Hockey League game here, between the Windsor Chryslers and the Majors. It should be one of the outstanding games of the season. Windsor has won five straight games, and the Majors are in a position where they cannot afford to take any chances, as the play-offs are nearing. ak * * Tonight's game will mark the re- turn to action of Mickey McQuade, after an absence of more than a month. McQuade was hurt when Holz- baugh-Fords of Detroit played here, on November 30. He has been out of the line-up, with an injured ankle ever since. Ce: ie On Wednesday -night, the Majors dropped a close game to London. The score was 2-1, which indicates how keenly the game was contested. Pickle MacNichol, a recent addition to the London team, was outstanding for the Mohawks, and got both the London goals. Spike McLeod scored the only goal which the Majors chalked up. | * * * It is possible that the London vic- tory will prove a costly one in the long run, as the London team lost the services of Wib Landymore, hefty de- fence man, who suffered a dislocated shoulder. Landymore was hurt when he and Jary Taylor. of the London team tried to body check Ron Fox of the Majors. ql eh. ea: While the Majors are playing here tonight, the Mites are scheduled to play a game in Woodstock against the Woodstock Trojans. The Mites al- ready have a victory to their credit over the Woodstock team, but that is no proof that they can win in Wood- stock, and they'll have to be out there trying all the time. ore re Word from London that the Michi- gan-Ontario Baseball League project has been revived again aroused some interest here, even in the midst of the hockey season. Stratford is one of the cities which the new League would like to have as an entry. A meeting is likely to be held in the near future, at which some more def- inite information probably will be available. The many friends of Buck Demp- sey, former Stratford player now play- ing in London, will be glad to know that he was not. seriously injured when the Majors played in London the other night. Buck's head struck the ice after he had been knocked down. He suffered a slight concussion, and was unable to play any more during the evening. Here and There To all my readers I wish you a more prosperous and a happier New Year. Te eet We wandered around the town and enjoyed the fine piece of artistry that Jack Frost had done. The view from the Stone Bridge west was one of real winter beauty. The tree branches look- ed like delicate interwoven lace-work. * * Ed . Who were the two local youths who recently paid a visit to all their lady friends and hoped to find mistletoe in all the homes? We hear that they were also treated to Christmas cake and a glass of milk. Growing boys only get milk, nothing stronger. * * * The newly organized Y.M.C.A. male chorus is making excellent 'progress and any young fellow interested is advised to see Mr. Mercer. Mr. H. A. Clark is the director. * * Ed One of the local young people's or- ganizations is running a broken heart column in its union paper. We un- derstand it has received some choice letters already. This columnist nearly came to an early end. The other day he decided he could do a fifty foot jump en a two foot take off. After a short sweet ride thro' the air he landed head first into the deepest snow he could find. Sev- eral seconds lapsed before onlookers could locate even his feet. Try ski- jumping to keep your school girl com- plexion. * * * We were teasing a véry young ac- quaintance of ours who was out tobogganing with a little lady. '"Who's your girl friend?" we asked. 'Who! her? She's just my sister." Don't let him get away with that, sister. Ol * * * ime, ar a ge haa aac aaa ee fee THE STRATFORD MIRROR Page 5 WEDDINGS HAY--NIEZALEWSKI The Rev. W.

Chief Beatty Lauds Stratford Motorists BEAUTY HINTS GIVE YOURSELF A BEAUTY STOCKTAKING The New Year is a good time to undergo a Beauty Stocktaking. Consider yourself from head to toe; weigh up your good points and those that are not so good. Re- solve to make the most of your appearance during the coming months. And break all your other resolutions, if you must, but do per- severe with this one! Is your skin clear and smooth? I am a firm believer in the habit of taking a dash of fruit salt # a glass of water every morning on arising. It helps internal cleanli- ness and keeps spots and pimples away from the skin. Have you any "aging" lines or wrinkles? Look especially around the eyes, mouth, chin and forehead. If the signs are only faint, get to work on them. It will save you a lot of trouble later on. Deep fur- rows require constant care and patience to eradicate. Use cleans- ing cream during the day and, at night, massage with a_ rich tissue cream, containing Vitamin F. Leave the cream on overnight un- less you have an oily skin. What kind of face powder do you use? Are you using a coarse powder that tarnishes the skin, or do you use the delightfully smooth "airspun" face powder that warms the skin and gives it a» youthful appearance? Do you bite your lips or do they chap easily? The biting cold of our-winters, like the winds and dust of summer, play havoc with our lips, but a lypsyl salve will smooth them and keep them lovely. Next week's article will continue this Beauty Stocktaking. In the meantime, write me about your personal beauty problems. You can obtain any of the following inter- esting leaflets by sending a_ 30 stamp for each one required: Fac- ial Care, Bust Development, Under- weight, Superfluous Hair, Hand Beauty, Glamorous Hair, Slimming, Feet Care, Fascinating Eyes and Reducing in Spots.

In pointing out, at the end of the year, that Stratford has escaped traf- fic fatalities in the past three years, Chief of Police R. J. Beatty revealed something of a record which it should become the duty of every citizen to protect. It was considered such an enviable mark that a Vancouver news- paper commented in flattering terms about the Stratford record, while call- ing attention to the heavy toll in Van- couver. Chief Beatty lauded the driving of Stratford motorists. It is to be hoped that they will again deserve the Chief's praise during the current year.
