This was the prize that attracted competitors and °- s Match spectators--approximately in the four-day period--to this for- mer RC.AF. training centre of a few hundred persons.

"Time," said Mr. Mackenzie, was an "important factor" in these "arduous days". He asked permission to enter Mackenzie Avenue against traffic and park opposite his office, City Council unanimously denied the request.

Bermuda Rapidly Regaining Playground Statu Pre-War 'Y ov By FORD BAXTER, Press Hamilton, Bermuda, Oct, 19,--(C P)--Bermuda has initiated a post effort to revive the 1925 Cana- da - Bermuds-British West Indies trade agreement under which she paid annual subsidies of about $14,- 000 for operation of Canadian Na- "Lady" vessels here, Well-informed Burmudian sourc- es say negotiations between Canada and Bermuda on the subject have begun. They argue resumption of the service would be advantageous to Canada since during and since the war the Dominion has supplied to Bermuda most of the human and animal foods consumed here and enlargment of shipping facili- ties would mean even larger ex- ports. Bermuda also is counting on the ONS, service--recently resumed-- 'To resuscitate her Canadian tour- ist business Before the "Lady" ships went back on the Bermuda run, Canadians -had to travel to New York or Baltimore to get air or water transport to Bermuda and with Americans taking up nearly all available accommodations there was little chance for Canadians to visit the island.

She was scared, nor does she now hesitate to admit 50 many men around "and I wasn't even married then." Today Mrs. Laura Rose Stephen is white-haired, and come January she'll be 81. Her only wish is to visit Guelph next June for the 50th anniversary of the Federated Wo- men's Institutes of Canada--the As- sociation which she organized throughout the Dominion, and wat- ched spread to other countries, That first speech of hers resulted in the development of an institute in Whitby, thé second in Canada. The first was at Stoney Creek, Ont,, in th. same year. Originally started as a branch of the Farmers' lnstitutes, the F.W.L C. soon grew along its own lines, an organization where rural women met to discuss mutual problems and work toward the development of their communities. A total of 36,000 women in Ontario now are members, and there are 170,000 throughout Canada. For several years Mrs. Stephen homesteaded in North Dakota, and later became the first woman lecturer at the Ontario Agricultumal College in Guelph, where she conducted a course in dairy farming. Memories are fine things to carry around, but when you're leading a busy life there isn't much time to dwell on them, Mrs. Stephen is just about as active as she was 50 years ago when she travelled on foot, by horseback, and even covered-wagan, meeting rural women across Can- ada. During that time she managed to write a book on dairy farming, con- tribute articles to several farm magazines, and raise two children. "When I'm tired I never read, I just write a letter," she said, adding that in her opinion sleep is "just a habit", Are You A 'Gimmick' Inventor? Well, Patent It Chum, Here's How Ottawa, Oct. 19.--(CP)--If you've got any ideas on a new kind of ice cream goblet, handcuffs or embalm- ing apparatus, don't keep them to yourself, The Canadian Patent Of- fice here will give you a monopoly on your invention for $25--if it's new--and the exclusive right to make what money you can from it for 17 years. First of all, though, be certain you've got an "invention." It must be "any new and useful art, pro- cess, machine, manufacture of com- position of matter" or an improve- ment of one of these before your brain-child can be filed away with the approximately 430,000 other patents that have been collected by the Patent Office since 1824. Hot Cricket : Furthermore, it isn't cricket to borrow an idea from a neighbor or a friend. Before making an applica- tion for a patent the applicant must swear he is "The first and true inventor." So if you've been intending to patent some of those handy gimmicks your inventive neighbor has protected but doesn't seem to care about, just forget it. Though many of the inventions are simple things like the new style golf bag, mechanical coin changer and shirt folding table patented along with about 140 other items last week, your chances are much better of becoming a second Edisow if you can come up with something 'more scientific like a new synthe- tisc resin, some electronic electric apparatus or a photographic color sensitizing emulsion. " Canada Invents Canada's inventors, who now fa- ther discoveries of the first magni- tude, in ploneer days confined their talents to devising gadgets and simple labor-saving devices. The first Canadian inventor was Noah Cushing of Quebec City, who shout- ed "Eureka" and got patent number one in 1824 for a "washing and full- ing machine." Last week the pat- ent Office chalked up number 437, 388 for a "foldable fish landing net." Early Canadian inventors were granted patents for such grisly "new and useful ee as a "pig's nose cartilag der? and a coffin "to prevent infection." More in line with present day "miracles" was the invention of Isaac Ogden of Three Rivers, Que., who in 1942 devised a "method of propelling vessels by means of heated air act- ing on.the fluid in which they float." 0ONo. 1tmp ellro va - miwypppwg This 8 Today, with most of the inven- tions submitted by large industrial concerns and dealing with technic- al subjects, patent attorneys pre- pare 99 per cent of the patent ap- plications. And even the lawyers must have their troubles describing for ex- ample, a '"'composition of matter comprising a polymetric synthetic linear polyamide having an intrin- sic viscosity of at least 0.4 and be- ing the reaction product of a poly- mer-forming composition compris- ing reacting materials selected from the glass consisting of polymerizable monoaminomonocarbxylic acids and mixture of diamines and dibasic ar- boxylic acids." It isn't the formula for a more man's duplicating an invention na- ture hasn't bothered patenting--a membrane similar to the skin just under the shell of an egg. Low Last Year Last year--Ilowest since 1919--7,- 084 patents were granted to inven- tors in more than 30 different countries. Canadians came away with 486 but United States with 5,- 682 was by far the leading inven- tion-producing country, The 41 pat- ents which were granted to inven- tors living in Germany are still be- ing held pending their disposal by the custodian of enemy property. With the stimulus of post-war needs, patent officials expect this year to outstrip the war years in the volume of applications as many concerns built up a backlog during the war. | Speaking for Chest my » » pm REV, J.

I did a good job of it, too. Everything clicked per- fectly. I've hanged 347 people in the last 15 years and I never saw a hanging go off any better. I'm only sorry Goering escaped, I want- ed him especially, I wasn't nervous. I haven't got any nerves, 'A fellow can't afford to have nerves in this business, But this Nuernberg job was one I really wanted to do. I wanted that assignment so bad I stayed over here after I could have gone back home just to do it. Those guys really deserved hang- ng. I'll say this for those Nazis, though. They died like brave men. Only one of them showed any signs of weakening, When (Wilhelm) Prick was climbing those 13 steps of the gallows one leg seemed to go bad on him, and the guards had to steady him, They were all arrogant. could see they hated us . . . There's not much to tell about the actual hangings, They went off just like any routine hangings. Ten men in 103 minutes, That's fast work ... ° The way I look at this hanging job, somebody has to do it.

In a strongly-worded address, Mr. Bracken charged both Liberal speakers and the Free Press had brought "up "phony issues" and "misrepresentations" which sought to divert the minds of the electors from the "real issues" "One of these side-issues the Free Press has dragged in is that of dominion-provincial rélations. The Fress Press says you should vote against C., C. Miller (Progres- sive Conservative candidate in Mon- day's by-election) for three reasons: "First, because the Dominion gov= ernment failed to get unanimous acceptance by the provinces of its August, 1045 plans; second, because it says George Drew and Maurice Duplessis are alone to blame for the conference failure; and third, because it says John Bracken changed his attitude to dominion provincial relations. . "The last two declarations are de- liberate distortions of the facts. The last dominion provinclal conferen failed to get unanimous agreement: because the Dominion government wanted it to fall.
