mm f H NEW WINDSHIELD GLASS CUTS HEADLIGHT GLARE Twiushield Girls Eilene and Elaine Helmke face photograph- er's bright lights to demonstrate new windshield glass (right) which cuts down usual bright glare (left). A glassmaker has come up with a new automobile windshield glass that -.vill take some of the sting out of the glaring headlights of on- coming cars. Since "sealed beam" headlights were developed some years back, the average car's inain lights have been so dazzling they ar entarly been so dazzl'ng they are nearly ifts and often a serious danger on the roads. To meet this problem at least part way, a glass firm has produced a rew glare-reducing safety plate glass for windshields. It has a slight bluish-green tint. Iron added to the raw material mixture largely does the trick. The new glass has been road- tested and has been found to cut glare materially, whether from head- lights or the sun. No claim is made, however .that the product will do too much toward protecting a driv- er'! eyes from the direct rays of a rising or setting sun. * * * Drivers who have used the glass »«y they don't particularly care any more whether oncoming cars at night dim their headlights or not. They say the tinted windshield soft- ens the glare considerably. Regular windshield glass allows 88 per cent of available light to pass through. The new product lowers this figure to 82 p<r cent. That is just four per cent above the mini- mum demanded by state laws for safety's sake. The new glass has a second fea- ture â€" it blocks about IS per cent of the sun's heat-producing infra- red rays. Not too many may realize that doctors believe actual physical dam- age is done to the eyes by the direct rays of bright headlights. And ac- cording to the Automobile Club, such glare can cause temporary blindness for as long as three sec- onds. * * * The National Safety Council says the high beams most drivers use on the roads constitute a major difficul- ty in night driving safety. "Annoy- ance due to glare is frequent in many accidents," it adds. Connecticut found that in one year 3.5 per cent of its highway mishaps could be ascribed directly to blinding headlights. Illinois re- corded a figure of around three per cent, and Minnesota and New Jer- sey of about two per cent. Most other states lumped these accidents with others caused by different kinds of obstructed vision. Educating drivers to depress their high beams when approaching other cars on the road is a slow business, and police enforcement of provincial and city laws to that effect is al- most impossible. There are too many violaf&rs. ^ A SixbitG The question of .Sunday sport is much to the fore again, especially in and around the fair metropolis of Toronto, where the natives 'seem to take almost everything with a large pinch of seriousness, and es- pecially their hockey team and their .Sabbatli. ♦ * • Onr iiersonal o))inion on this highly controversial matter is greatly akin to that of the yokel who had been appointed a Justice of the I'eace, and who was hearing his first court rase. About half way llirough the prosecuting at- torncv'.s opening speech the J. P. raised his hand. "That's enough," he shouted. "I don't need to hear any more, l^rosecution winsl" • ♦ ♦ It was gently pointed out to him that such conduct wasn't sliictly according to Ifoyle â€" that he must at least listen to the other side. "All right; go ahead if you've a mind to," said His Honour, "but it won't do ye a mite of good." * ♦ » So the defense lawyer tore into a most impassioned speech; and after he had been orating for about five minutes, again came the cry from the Bench to halt. "If this don't beat aitch, folks," rjuoth the Justice. "Now I'm blamed if it isn't defense that wins. I'risoner acquitted!" * » * Well, as we started to tell you, that is just about our position on the matter of Sunday sports â€" to be or not to be. What we think •bout it so largely depends on which side we've beeji hearing last that we just cannot come to any definite decision. Old Omar Khay- yam put it all a lot more neatly tO»n we can ever hoi)e to do when he wrote; • * * "Myself, when young, did eagerly frequent Doctor and Saint, and heard great argument Afcout it and about; but evermore Came out by the tame door where in I went." • ♦ ♦ Change "Doctor" to"Sport" and that expresses our sentiments about the rights and vtongt of Sunday Sports to a "T". But U you think *tf our admitted utter Ignorance «l the question is going to prevent m writing about It at tome further httgth, you're greatly mistaken. ♦ » • la the beginning, we might ex phin that we are hardly what you •right call a rabid anthusiaet on 4m matter of Church attendance. la fact outside ol Funerals and Weddings we have been so seldom to church in the last quarter cen- tury or so that we have almost forgotten whether you need a pass- word and secret grip in order to be admitted, although the chances are it's The Mystic Knights of the Sea we're thinking of. • » * We have also a deep feeling of sympathy for those who are stuck in a crowded flat or in a couple of stuffy rooms, with neither the price or means of transportation to reach the more wide open spaces, • and nothing to do over the long week-end but fight with the wife over whether to listen to Jack Benny or Chamber Music on the radio, or bawl out the kids for making too much noise when you v/ant to have a snooze. » ♦ » There is no doubt that a lot of such unfortunates might be much happier in Churcn or Sunday School â€" but the fact remains that they don't think so, and all the Blue Laws ever written aren't going to convince them otherwise. ♦ ♦ » And when we think of such people, we are convinced that some stretching of the tight Sabbath statutes might be all to the good. But, as the lady said about the girdle, once it starts stretching, you never know when it's going to stop. And if you think that H, for example, Sunday baseball la allowed, the moving picture mag- nates are going to be satisfied to have their cash-registers ailent â€" well, you have a faith in human naiture that is greater than ours. ♦ » ♦ Right there, it seems, is the crux of t*ie matter. There are undoubt- •dly those wihose advocacy of a more open Sunday is absolutely unselfis'h â€" who fig^t for it because they believe they would be bring- ing happiness to a great many Canadians, young jind old. • ♦ ♦ The trouble is thai these aHru- istic aoult are so few in •omparitoa with those whose motive* art â- *! 9uhe to pure and unselfishâ€" those wiho believe, although th«y wovtd 4oirf>tlMs deny It Indignantly, Miat a more open Sunday would mean â€" â-  well, to put it baldly, more shekels in the tUl. * * • You don't believe this is lo!' Then, a« we have said before, let's put It (his way. If the Government â€" Federal, Provincial or Civicâ€" should propose legislation making the Sabbatih as wide open at thi Grand Canyon, but with the pro viso that ALL RECKIPTS FROM THAT EXTKA SrNDAY BUSI NESS, WlTlloLir K XCEl' TiON, Musr GO ro niAK ITY, ju»t how long do you think THEFAEM FRONT lokix12lw^ell. The Canadian National Exhibi- tion, ever since reopening, has been coming in for some sharp criticism because its purely spectacular fea- tures â€" such as the Olsen-Johnson Grand Stand performance â€" are played up much more strongly than its exhibits of manufactures, farm products and so forth. * ♦ ♦ Along the same Une, there are many folks who think that the Royal Winter Fair is in danger of becoming more or less of a background Jor the Horse Show and "sassiety" stuff. This feeling was strengthened by what hap- pened at the Royal just a few weeks ago. * • ♦ The graiiid championship live- stock sale at the Royal Winter Fairâ€" says an editorial in the Tor- onto Globe and Mail â€" should be considered, not as an isolated in- cident, but as a vital part of the exhibition scene. The auction is normally the climax of the "Roy- al." This week, it came near to being an anti-climax, so far as the public was concerned. Previ- ously it had been held in the CoH- seum before potential audiences of 10,000. This year it was held in a smaller ring with room for only about 1,000 spectators. And that raises the question of the main reason for holding the Royal Win- ter Fair. * ♦ * In defense of this year's decision. Fair officials have said that auction buyers and sellers had asked for a smaller ring.-Whatever the merit* of this argument, we think it over- looks a major purpose of the Fair «s a public institution. Its objec- tive should be to show the people its triumphs, of which livestock arc naturally the most spectacular ele- ment. The Fair begam, and has progressed, as a place where the country's best could be exhibited to an admiring audience; the na- tion's aristocrats of the barns, the finest fruits of the land, the clever- est of ihe people's handicrafts- varied results of ma«i's immemorial spirit of competition. » • • Endowed with this distinction by the public's interest, trust and money, the Fair has a national duty to people everywhere who look to It for leadersliip, for standards of excellence, and for the appropriate rewards of those who pass the final tests through their skill and perseverance. Like all honors, the blue ribbon gains attractiveness through its material value, epito- mized in the grand parade of the champions. This, in the spirit of h would take for all this talk about "the poor Blue- Law-bound unfort- unates" to die down to utter sil- ence? You'll have to figure out the answer to that one yourself. Our stop-watch only splits seconds into tenths. • * ♦ « Now, changing the subject briefly, here's a parting thought for the day. That great publicity genius, Conn Smythe, undoubtedly got a million dollars worth of free advertising for his hockey team, and did the grapefruit and slimming-diet trade a heap of good, with his recent "You're too fat for me" outburst. But we can't help wondering what the makers of that syrup, cereal and all the other strength-giving foods the Maple Leafs use so lavish- ly, are thinking about it all. Maybe the Reporter's Jealous "The couple was married at high noon at the Rose Hill Baptist church. After the ceremony the couple left for a grief wedding trip."â€" from Atlanta Journal: "My little boy i* very polite," said Brown, jovially. "Only the other night In the bus he pointed out an empty icat to a dear old lady and raced her for It." SAFES ProtMt your H(U)HH >iiil CASH Iram riRK and TIIIKVEH.

The resultant bidding na- turally has no relation to the butcher shop value of the meat It has a more human mainspring. It symbolizes the public realiza- tion of a triumph. * * * The blue ribbon function thus becomes, or should become, the very fruition of people's hopes and aims. If it is to be relegated to sideshow status, as something to be got over quickly, what has be- come of the ideal of the Fair itself? What is the final thrill to the winner, and where is his in- centive to come again and taste the wine of victory? Where, for , that matter, is the incentive of the buyer thus deprived of public ap- plause? The Royal Winter Fair directors will be well advised to ponder these things and to keep educational and entertainment values in proper relation. Funda- mental purposes come first. » â-  » ♦ And now, here's something that might be of interest to a lot of you poultry raisers â€" the brief story of how Charles Schaefer, out in Lafayette County, solves two common problems at once with his combination garden and chicken yard. By switching chickens and v^c- tables every year, he has clean ground for his poultry flock, and * fairly weed-free, well-fertilized plot for the family garden. Here's how he does it: * * * Next to the poultry house Schae- fer laid out two equal-size plots, and fenced them both in. While his dhickens pasture in rye crop or audan grass on on* plot, the family table garden thrives on the other. The follow- ing year the hens roam over last year's garden area, and tile vege- tables grow on last year's poultry plot. * * * In the fall, Schaefer spreads 4- 12-4 plant food at the rate of about 200 lbs. per acre over both plots, and seeds liotli to rye. * * * He plows the rye under on the plot to be used for garden in early spring, but lets it grow on the other plot. The rye adds humus to the gar- den side and on the poultry side it provides green feed and helps keep weeds from getting a start. In spring the Schaefers often sow a part of the poultry lot to sudaa grass. It makes late summer pas- ture for the hens after the rye has matured. * ♦ * The hens take such good care of the weeds in their yard that the garden is practically weedless the next year. The Schaefers plant their vege tables in rows on the contour, both to conserve soil moisture and pre- vent washing. The rows are wide enough to cultivate with a farm tractor and field equipment â€" a real time-saver. ♦ ♦ * "We've used this system for five years now, amd we wouldn't think of going back to having just a one- acre garden," says Schaefer. "It'4 good for the garden-and it's good for the poultry flock, too." Schaefer points out that great many farms have suitable space for this kind of arrangement. It's just a tnaltf 'iiying it out and iitting in fences. t^ This coiiifj . Mi garden) and poultry rociiimi ^ystenl is now recommended 10 farmers by the local college of agriculture. So why don't you look around the place a little? Cliances are you can do the tame thing yourself. ^^=^^ =sa^ WAKE UP YOUR LIVER BILE- Without Calomel -And Youll Juinp Ool •!
