thursday at stouffville ontario subscription rates per year in advance in canada 3200 in usa 250 a- v nolan son publishers notes and comments mother and child doing well in an ontario township theres a mother aged fifteen currently receiving the baby bonus on account of n infant to whom she gave birth not long since the mothers mother is at the same time receiving the baby bonus on account of her erring daughter if the fifteenyearold girl had acquired a lawful hus band she would have deprived her mother of the 800 per month a cynic suggests that perhaps the infants fathers mother also may be getting the bonus on his account but there is a regretable lack of exact information on that point alker unlimited oil reserves well and favorably know in masonic circles a stouff ville and markham john ness has written an article for saturdav night full of enlightenment on the oil situation- he is a petroleum technologist with imperial oil and has written extensively on oil exploration he says alaramists periodically warn us that the days of the petroleum industry are numbered that the worlds oil wells are giving out but there is no cause for alarm s shown by this brief inventory of reserves and probable supply- the united states for instance has an expectancy of 50 billion barrels of new oil canada has vast areas of proven oil reserves to the extent of 30 million barrels other parts of the western hemisphere have a further 50 billion barrels for posterity still remaining for further exploita tion are the middle east territories russias etc not to speak of present and future production of synthetic gaso line oil seems to be everywhere providing we have the energy and skill tofmd it countries where oil production lags are those which have restrictive legislation or excessive regulation now to conquer fog science is now on the eve of developing something that is capable of dispersing fog so we may soon exect that ere long science will find a way to bring on spring showers and summer rains in fact it would seem that there is nothing that science will be unable to surmount unless it is the ways of man himself when we witness the mass idleness of the present time when so much is in short demand we wonder if human beings are progressing in material things too fast while they are slipping badly in those things which go to supply the spiritual way of life but about the fog discovery we have just read an article from science monitor that tells of a new devise now being tested at the navys experimental field at areata calif which screeches highfrequency supersonic waves at fog and presto the fog particles condense into rain thus clearing visibility during the war the british pioneered with fido a fog disperser which burned high octane gas and took sometimes as much as 5000 worth to lanl one plane the navy has a new disperser named elmer which is expected to do the job for around 150 but mora recently it has been experimenting with sound devices the first attempts were made with a battery of sirens and while successful in that these turned fog into rain the noise nauseated personnel on the field now highfrequency supersonic vibrations with up to 40000 cycles per second 150 octaves higher than high c and completely inaudible to human ears as being used- these are expected to be still more effective and cheaper as well those foreign language menus we have been eating a great deal lately in city restaur- ents and the old question that has often filled our mind comes up again why are so many of the items on the menu in foreign words and phrases few who read them under stand their meaning and those who are responsible for the foreign terms being used probably know they will not be understood and perhaps do not want them to be suspicious of this smoke screen we insisted that the waiter explain what boeuf a la mode was and he had to retire to the kitchen to find out the answer beef larded and pot roasted at the same meal we asked the waiter what was meant by pie a la mode and he didnt know that one either even when we suggested to him that it might nean pie with ice cream he again consulted an authority in the kitchen and conceded that that was the answer it is recalled that when the king made a tour of canada he congratulated one hotel for placing before him an all- english menu when the eatables were allcanadian here are a few of the thing resented yet tpms one must understand if they are to order wisely in sime city restaurants an gratin baked with a topping of crumbs and often grated cheese

and general performance to belting made from natural rubber lddougan assistant manager of polymer corporation the government synthetic rubber plant at sarnia told the canadian manufacturers associa tion in toronto this week mr dougan cited an example in which synthetic rubber belting had been used by a mining company for carrying crushed ore during its lifetime the belting had carried 2000000 tons of ore as against an average liftetime total of 1400000 tons for natural rubber belting according to mr dougan not only belting but many other synthetic rubber items including automobile inner tubes industrial hose rubber lined pipe and rubber foot wear have proved better than their natural counterparts 1941 prices vary from store to store according to what they did charge in 1941 as 2 for

this was disclosed by reconstruc tion minister howe in ottawa thursday he said nail production was at full capacity and even with increased demands for supplies there should be lots for everybody
