during the worst of the depression years the per capita consumption of pork ran from 83 pounds in 1931 lo 71 in 1933 and beef from 57 to 56 but in 1931 when things were better the con sumption of pork fell to co pounds and beef rose to cs it was the first year since tile depression set in that the canadian people ate more beef than pork it was evident that while pork might have been dearer in the

from the west he wishes to marry me and although i have never seen him his letters are so pleasant that i find myself drawn to him he is married but has not lived with his wife for some years and offers to get a divorce if i accept his offer of marriage i feel that i should rc- niarry because i am still young but i naturally dont want to make a mistake my first marriage was very- happy and my husband left me a substantial sum of money any help you care to give me in showing what you think my correspondent is real ly like will be welcome i am sorry that i cannot be overly optimistic about your chances of making a really favourable marriage with the man who is writing to you he is not generous he is as a matter of fact of rather a narrow viewpoint not really broadmimlcd he is likely to get very irritable if not bad tempered and whilst a lot of us have that little trait allied as it is in this case with narrowness of mind it shows that this man is not easy to live with he is rather changeable too he will be inconsistent not at all stable temperamentally but fickle in his moods it would be difficult to understand him at times another characteristic that stands out is thi3 mans vanity he ex presses this in his letter to you when he remarks on the number of lady- friends that ho has had and whilst he is endeavouring to convey a sub tle compliment to you in that he prefers you to all the others this also shows conceit and his hand writing bears this out very clearly i mentioned that ho is not very- generous i would go further and lay that ho is economical arid cautious to the point of parsimony shows that you have a rather emot ional nature you are quick to feel joys and sorrows and possess a marked capacity for affection yours is essentially a nature that needs company there is nothing of the cold or aloof type about you you are ardent lovable spontaneous like lots of fun and have a liking for being on the go you arc still young and i certain ly agree with you that marriage would be an excellent thing for you provided that you get the right sort of partner your prevbus hap py choice has- given you a standard that it may not be easy to parallel but i have no doubt that the op portunity will again arise in the meantime i am sorry that i cannot advise you to accept the man whose writing you sent to me without at- least taking an opportunity of

mystery of the lengthen ing shadows some of us would spare them for the sake of that thrill but a more practical defense rests on the part they play in the economy of nature with which man meddles at his peril es by destroying the vermin in the fields fewer crows more mice and cutworms so nature may take toll for mans interference it is less easy to palliate the crows criminal assaults on the nests of other birds but many ornithologists hold that murderous offense is rare much rarer prob ably than mans violence to mem bers of his own species possibly the human race should be exter minated

guide move ment and suggestions for changes in the uniform to make it more at tractive and comfortable to various climates are made by vesta womens editor of the melbourne argus following the recent visit of the chief scout and chief gude lord and lady badenpowell and the various celebrations in australia the article says why is it the girl guides have failed to envoke the sympathy and enthusiasm that lias been poured out unsparing ly on the scouts why is it they find it difficult to obtain an ade quate number of suitable guidcrs it is not enough to say that tho guide movement is younger than the scouts it has to be admitted that the movement in australia has not even begun to rouse any fervid sentiment in the public at large and that women generally have still to be convinced of its value to the individuals composing it and to the community outside the australian writer declares those who have been responsible for the building up of the guide organ ization have had to meet a strong though silent opposition duo to the persistence of the idea that girls should spend as much of their time as possible in their own homes and that anything except school that takes them out of their homes is likely to have a bad influence on them notwithstanding the fact that many forms of recreation and plea sure do in any case take girls fre quently out of their homes and not withstanding the fine moral in fluence that the guide precepts and laws should exercise this objection is stll frequently met with and per sisted in however reasonably and logically it may be answered the artcile says personally i was much disap pointed that with so many guides gathered together here there wai no occasion on which the public could see them in their strength independently of the boys jly own impression was that tiie various companies of guides are kept too busy sightseeing in addition to their camp activities the argus womens editor de clares the present uniform is in many cases neither becoming nor neat so that it is impossible to re gard it with much pride it is most unsuitable too in our hot weather which calls for something light in color as well as light in weight i understand that it is permissable to use lightweight materials in sum mer but navy blue is a color which docs not look well in thin cheap materials and a guide uniform must be inexpensive the writer observed that some of the australian women cubmasters looked very well in their pleated khaki skirls nad blouses and some shade of dark fawn might be found practical for guides not all countries have adopted the navy blue uniform so that there is no reason why we should adhere to it the editor says the black stockings worn with it too are hoth hot and ugly and i am sure that the movement would benefit if some uniform more becoming and more adapted to our climate could be de vised a normal girl likes to look her best and it would probably be found easier to obtain guidcrs also if they were not asked to assume a uniform which few of them really like duchess of kent sweetest girl one could wish to know a regards yourf your writing m issue no 14 35 28 grow soya beans a new deal we guarantee that your
