Over in the Lamour camp, Dotty was quietly waiting her turn, "I'll get him," she muttered, dropping two stitches from the skirt she was knitting fog herself. "First team" shouted the assistant director, ordering the substitution of stars for stand-ins, "Laddie!" called Dotty menacingly, "Oh Lad~ die!" They squared off in front of the camera. "Could we have the studio doctor stand by for Alan?" sald Dotty helpfully, Ladd refused cotton to protect his mouth, fearing he would swallow it, "Hit him hard," shouted Preston, "You be quiet or I'll ask for you in my next jungle picture!" warned Dotty. ; The scene began, Alan read his line, some nasty remarks about the character Dotty was playing. She slapped her pretty paw across his tanned face with such gentleness that even Alan burst out laughing. "Harder!" she was instructed, and the scene began again, This time Dotty wound up like Bobby Feller with the bases loaded, Whack! and Alan was sent reeling, Luckily for him this one was a "take" Maybe it wasn't so bad for him after all--=When I left, Dotty was tenderly rubbing his bruised cheek.

If the King receives his sister-in- law, she is likely to be accepted everywhere, If the King does not iavite the duchess, no one yet can say how she will be treated in her husband's old circles. By selling their home on the French Riviera, the Windsors in- spired a fresh crop of rumors that the duke might be entering the ser- vice of the Labor government, Whitehall officials have declined comment, Mothers' Auxiliary Honors Seven Scouts In honor of seven Scouts who served with the armed forces, the Mothers' Auxiliary of the 7th Osh- awa Scout Troop held a dance in St, George's Parish Hall last Friday.

She told the group, about the magazine, how it is pro- | duced and edited, and about the contribution a nurse can make to it, She also solicited subscriptions from the nurses, Teachers May Hope For More Liberty "Teachers may be allowed to act like humans soon," reads the head- line over a newspaper story dealing with recent comments of Dr. Fran- cls Brown, executive secretary" of' the President's commission on higher education, Dr, Brown points out that the alarming teacher shortage may have two happy results: Higher pay and more personal freedom for tea- chers, About 'that personal freedom: The educator says that almost every community has a double standard, One is for the conduct of teacheers in school and out. The other stand- ard is for non-teachers, That's true, isn't it? Double Standards Johnny's parents probably smoke and chances are they have their friend In now and thea for a few drinks, But Johnny's teacher had better not be seen smoking a cig- arette or having a cocktail with friends, Dr, Brown was quick to point out that, while he thinks teachers should be given more freedom, they should use that freedom with dis. cretion, because "after all, teachers are setting an example for stu- dents." But are they today? Isn't that Just an old-fashioned idea we have stubbornly clung to? Kids By-Pass Teachers Does Susie, aged 15, really pat ern herself after any of her teach. ers?? Nope. Chances are she is using a movie star, a famous model, or some other bobby-soxer as her ideal, Teachers aren't models for the young any, more and the reason they're not may very well be that double standard we have forced on them. No high-spirited kid is going to pick Miss Smith for a model so long as Miss Smith has to act like a school board's idea of a teacher, instead of like a human being. Give the teachers as much per- sonal freedom as women have in other jobs and professions and maybe they will have a chance to serve as models for the young. Nurses Hear Reports Of Nurses' Meetings Miss Edith Hill presided at the first Fall meeting of Chapter 1, Dis- trict V, Registered Nurses' Assocla- tion of Ontario, held at the Oshawa General Hospital on Tuesday even- ing.

He pointed out that while the disease has been known for perhaps 3,00 years, it is within the past 100 years that three all-important discoveries have been made--the discovery of anaes- thesia, the realization that cancer is made up of the same kind of cells as in other parts of the body, and the discovery of X-ray and radium, Dr Young urged that the public should be made aware of such facts as that of the 14,000 who die of oancer in Canada annually, at least 6,000 could be saved under ideal management--under {deal condi- tions without anything new being discovered, Research, he sald, is important, and must go on, but he pointed out that above all there must be the proper persons to carry it on suc- Souatully as wel] as adequate facili- Speaking further of the ideal con- ditions for .treatment of the dis- ease, Dr, Young stressed that it must be discovered at the earliest possible moment and then must be treated with the proper equipment and by properly trained persons, Fear An Obstacle Fear is one of the most serious obstacles to prompt treatment," he sald, pointing out that the average delay in seeking treatment in hos- pital for the disease is at least eight months, "The patient in our social set-up must take the first step elf and go to the doctor." Attributing much of this wide- spread fear to lack of knowledge as to the facts, he declared that it should be known for instance that 70 to 80 per cent of all cancers of the breast could be cured if condi- tions were ideal, that 90 per cent of all cancer of the lip is curable and 98 per cent of all cancer of the skin could be cured if treated in its early stages. As to other hindrances he refer- red to the financial barrier in many cases, and also the shortage of treatment facilities and proper- ly trained specialists, Declaring that it is a problem, not only for governments, but for the people, he sald that the situa- tion with regard to cancer today is much the same as that of tubercu- losis 80 years ago. In the course of time people became educated to the importance of having early diagno- sis and proper treatment for tuber. culosis and today the disease is no longer the formidable thing it was. Organization Needed To promote this public education, Dr. Young stressed the need for organisation and urged that groups be organized across the country to assist In the work, He explained that at the present time theve are three organizations in the province dealing with the subject--the On- tario 'Commission for the Investiga- tion of Oancer Remedies; the On- tario Branch of the Canadian Can- cer Society, whose work is educa- tion and organisation; and the re- cently formed Ontario Cancer Treatment and Research Founda. tion, which is concerned with pro- viding adequate facilities, Dr, Young was introduced by Dr. Thelma Blair and Mrs. T. R. Dry- THREE MEAT COUPONS What was the trouble yesterday? Was it the overcast sky all day?

Let's get a better report from the Board office tomorrow den expressed the appreciation of the gathering not only for his in formative address but for his gen- erosity In answering questions put Io Jim by several of those pres- ent, The president, Miss Phyllis Fergu- son, who presided at the meeting, expressed confidence that the com- ing year would be a most successful one for the club, She announced that Mrs, Charles Lamon had con- sented to serve as social convener, replacing Miss M. Cartwright who has moved from the city, Mrs, K. H, Braithwaite, chairman of the ways and means committee, ane nounced that plans are under way to hold a travelling bridge early next month, similar to that held a year ago, Women Must Make Their Choice -- Coal or Lipstick: Say Miners By ARTHUR EDSON Washington, Oct, 9--(AP)----Coal miners in the United States have hitched their wagon to a cow--and it appears to be a long, hard pull, Capt. N, H, Collisson, of the Unit- ed States Navy, the government's coal mines administrator, said today the meat shortage means that miners now find it difficult to ob- tain: Enough to eat; soap; explo~ sives, Capt. Colllsson sald he 1s most worried about the third shortage-- explosives, They're' made from - cerine, a by-product of soap-mak- ing, which in turn is a by-product of slaughtering. Hence they're tied directly to the meat shortage, 'I understand some glycerine goes into cigarettes," Capt, Collison said. "Makes them smoke smoother, And quite a bit of it is going into rouge, cosmetics, things like that," Capt. Collisson said he sympa~ thizes with miners but he believes the less-publicized shortage, glycer- ine, is the real problem. "A miner can eat meat substi- tutes," he sald, "and he can get coal out in spite of grimy hands, But he con't do a thing without ex- plosives." Capt. Collisson said if the glycer- ine shortage becomes any more acute the wartime priority system probably will be revived, "We will have to decide," he sald, "which is more important: coal or lipstick?"
