CORBETT News Editor PHONE 703 Queen's Famed Carpet To Be Shown Thursday Now on display in Bermuda, D0 pam famed Queen Mary's carpet will be back in Canada in time to be shown in Whitby at the Canadian Legion Memorial Hall next Thurs- day. Sponsors are members of the Viscount Greenwood Chapter, IODE. Queen Mary's carpet has been entrusted to the Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire after ac- ceptance of its offer to raise a Fund from the Canadian public of at least $100,000 with which to pay for it. When the money has been obtained, the carpet will be pre- sented to the National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa, as a gift from the people of Canada.All donations and net proceeds of the exhibits of the carpet in some 36 cities across Canada will go to the Queen Mary's Carpet Fund. HM. Queen Mary has stipulated that the money from the sale of the carpet should be a contribution to Britain's dollar export drive -- her oon- 3 personal tribution to help raise "dollars for Britain." Queen Mary worked on the Eng- lish 18th Cemtury design hand- made needlepoint carpet, 102" by 69%" inches for eight years, pic- turing it taking due place among the family heirlooms in Windsor Castle. When Britain's economic crisis became acute the Queen' Mother decided to give it as her personal contribution to the nation to be sold as a dollar export, with the only stipulation "that the carpet will hang in a public 'The Imperial Potder Daughters of the Empire offered to the Brit- ish Carpet Committee to establish a fund open to the general public to raise as much money as possible, with the minimum objective of $100,000 with which to purchase the royal carpet for Canada. As a small proportion of the people of Can- ada had seen the carpet on its re- cent tour, it was hoped every loyal Canadian would visit the display and help the United Kingdom ease its dollar shortage.

The highest bids that were made on the hand shown below were 1 Spade by North and 2 Diamonds by West--the other bids of 3 Hearts, 3 Diamonds and 3 Spades were all defeated. Of course the chief reason why so many bids are defeated at Duplicate is that there is a greater incentive to sacri- fice. Rather than let West have the bid for 2 Diamonds, South will try for 2 Spades; and then the East and West couples will feel the same way about South's bid. But that's what makes such hands interesting --its not merely a question of cor- rectly evaluating the strengtliy of one's own partnership but also the possible score the opponents can high scores were as follows (the EW. totals being lower as Announcements CaYHOLIC ouENS LEAGUE FOR SALE--1937 PLYMOUTH. 116 St. Peter Street.

Bradley & Son Decorating Contractors For efficient service Scarbore 7128 Whitby 850 Editorial Comment Move In Right Direction Town council took a step in the right direction this week when it decided to consider favorably a final estimate for extension of sewers to the area north of the C.P.R. tracks. This section of Whitby, only eight blocks from the Post Office has been one of the "underprivileged" areas. Prior to a few years ago it was without water service. At | present it would seem that the 60 existing houses can be serviced at reasonable cost. Residents there have a good case, too, especially since every property there, as in the other sections of town, has always paid full sewer taxes because of the absence of local improvement by-laws. If both water and sewer are both available and if the forthcoming building by-law proves to be what it should be, future years will see that area build up solidly, and with a more desirable type of house than has adorned the Heigh- '| bourhood in the past. Rama Plant Uses | 'Wonder' Chemical A material known by the name of "Carboxel," which is used in the pulp and paper industry and in the manufacture of paints and sizes, is being manufactured by the new $500,000 Chemical Devel- opments of Canada Limited plant at Longford Mills, in Rama Town- ship, Ontario County. The plant, which is operated by a company formed by the union of the old Standard Chemical Com- pany and General Aniline and Film Corporation of the United | 204. States, is being readied for the manufacture of various chemical compounds using as the basic ma- terial, the relatively new wonder chemical, "ethylene oxide." Expect More Employment Renovations and remodelling have been underway at the Long- ford plant for the past year. The company now has about 10 build- ings and employs about 34 people, although it is expected there will be an increase in the plant's em- ployment figures when increased production is started. The old Standard Chemical plant was once one of the largest pro- ducers of charcoal in North Amer- ica, but with the decline in the use of its product, the plant finally closed down in 1942 for a period of four years, With the formation of the new company, it is expected more che- mical compounds, using "ethylene oxide" as as base, will be manufac- tured, This compound, which is said to look like white gasoline, is quite unique In that its actions in air and water make them two of its most potent natural enemies. Con- tact with either will apparently produce combustion. Because of its great affinity for these two com- mon compounds, elaborate pre- cautions are take to ensure that none of the oxide compound will come into contact with them. Storage tanks and reaction ves- sels are blanketted with inert gas- es and special alarm devices have been initalled to provide the ut- most possible safety for the oper- ators and plant personnel. Many of the special detergents used in Industry as di compounds, emulsifiers, and wet- ting agents are produced from this veritable giant of the chemical world. Soapless Washing An example of the type of deter- gents which can be manufactured from "ethylene oxide" is the soap- less washing agents with which many - housewives are familiar. An application of one of the wetting agents made from the compound on a duck, or any other type of water fowl, would result in its sink- ing beneath the water surface, be- | ¢ cause the agent would remove the greasy substance which gives a duck its buoyancy. Other products are used in industry to remove the grease in which aluminum and other metals are packed for trans- porting. Candy League (Ladies Bowling) The Candy League met on Wed- nesday.

In High School Halls BY BARBARA KNIPS The regular Senior Basketball schedule drew to a close and as 1t did it found Whitby and Port Perry tied for 1st place. This situa- tion called for a play-off.
