As useful an idea for an end table, if storage space is limâ€" ited, is a small tier or drawers or a chest. A small chest against the wall takes little space, looks interesting and different, yet provides extra and useful storage space. The Bigger Table Most living rooms needs at least one larger table . . . though the library table as such has gone out of fashion, a large table is still needed for reading, by Elizabeth MacRea Boykin | wise selection of small tables and incidental chairs is accented by the use of a larger table in front of of the window for games or magazines. ffor serving, for games.

Here too a small chest can be used instead of a table if needed, or an atâ€" tractive tier of book shelves with a mirror over it will do graciously. The long narrow table set against the wall with a mirror over it is the answer to some space problems, and there‘s a charming shell base console that has individuality and distinction. For Awkward Walls Speaking of shelves, there are ever so many versatile small whatnots and brackets that serve as incidental furâ€" nitureâ€"some to break awkward wall spaces, others to do in place of lamp tables. Round book shelf base coffee tables are good ideas. Various shelf types of bedside tables are very versaâ€" tileâ€"but not versatile enough, says one of our editors, who wishes someâ€" body would make a model with twin bed spotlights, space for radio, books, magazines, telephone and thermos pitcher. Not an unreasonable request either since those are the things most of us want at our bedside but don‘t have space for. In any list of incidental furniture, side chairs and hassock should have their place. They present a wonderful opportunity to finish off a room to a queen‘s taste to give it a final fillip, to accent it with sparkle or sophisticaâ€" tion or dignity, whichever is your dish. Hassocks, benches and big round poufs upholtered daringly, also suggest efâ€" fective finishing touchesâ€"they‘re useâ€" ful too.

THE PORCUPINE ADVANCT, TTMMINS, ONTAR 10 Instructions About Flying the Flag in This Dominion In these days when there is consld-; erable flagâ€"fiving (but certainly not too | much, if enough) criticism is often heard about the position of the flag. l "The flag should be flown this way, or ; that,‘"* will be heard on more than one ! side, and seldom do the critics agree.

The Red Ensign, with the Coat of Arms emblazoned on the fly, is the flag of the Canadian Merchant Marine and is intended only for use afloat and for use on official buildings outside Canâ€" ada, but for the past 50 years Canaâ€" dians have made a practice of also fiyâ€" in this flag on land. The Red Ensign should invariably be displayed on the ensign“ taft or stern)> staff of a vessel. Company or privately owned boats or launchesâ€"should fly at the bow (fore) staff, the Pilot Jack, that is the Union Jack surrounded by a white border, or heir yacht club burgee or the owner‘s private flag. A Canadian boat visiting the United States waters would fly at the bow staff the filag of the United States. 5. The correct position of the Union Jack when flown from a staff is with the broad white stripe of the Cross of St. Andrew, above the red stripe of St. Patrick, on the side of the filag next to the flagpoleâ€"if reversed, that is with the narrow white stripe above, it is a signal of distress. 6. The flag should always be carried upright and not allowed to touch the ground. § 100. When the Union Jack is disâ€" played with other flags from staffs raâ€" diating from a common point, it should be in the center of the group. 11. When displayvyed with another 9. When two flag staffs are provided on a building, the Union Jack should be flown on the one, on the building‘s own right, that is the observer‘‘s left, with the other flag on the building‘s own left.

When the flag is to be flown at half mast, it should first be raised to the top of the staff and then lowered until center of flag is in line with a point midway between the top of the mast and ground. However,, when a flag staff is located on the roof of a building it is permissable to drop the flag only about oneâ€"third down the staff, thus giving the illusion of half mast. In lowering the ‘flag should be run up to the full height of the staff and then lowered. 8. In a ceremony or parade where it is the desire to show respect to anâ€" other nation by displaying its flag, the Union Jack must always be also disâ€" played, but never on the same flag staff. The Union Jack should always have the place of honour on the right â€"its position should ‘never be lower than that of the other flag and in no case should the other flag exceed the Union Jack in size. 11.

All in the Sime Boat In Britain they are all in the front line in this war. In this country even the children realize the necessity of winning the warâ€"or Alse. Sunday we heard one very young lady, a stamp saver, explaining to anâ€" other, "T‘ll be worth $28 when this war is overâ€"if we win it." Political Philosophy Our Uncle Ed is a little uncertain and a bit disturbed in his political philosophy. First he is tired of the "party" reâ€" presentative who is more afraid of beâ€" ing read out of his party than he is of being read out of his church, his country or his birthright. It is like the old political cartoon we once saw of twelve good little pigs that did as they were told and one contrary little pig who insisted on running wild. "Oh, well!l" said the mother pig, philosophically, "you‘ll be sorry when feceding time comes around." Then he is fed up with the parties. He says the Liberal party representis smug complacency, and the Conserâ€" vative party sterile futility. He says the Tories have a past and the Liberals have a present, but he doesn‘t think either one of them have a future. What to do? Uncle Ed wonders if the time will never come when all the people will not take a serious and sober interest in electing their representatives to Parâ€" liament. It doesn‘t make sense to squander hundreds of millions of dollars and millions of young lives on a preference Uncle Ed says that this movement must start with ordinary people and not with big names, because other ordinary people would suspect the moâ€" tives of big men in the movementâ€"and probably with some justification. He has always believed in the twoâ€" party system because of its conveniâ€" ence, and has always deprecated third parties because they were usually cranks. to try and prevail on the best man to run, instead of just going out on elecâ€" tion day and choosing between a couple of people #ho have thrust themselves forward because they fancied living on the country for the next four years. Having seen that the‘office sought the man instead of vice versa, Uncle Ed thinks that this group of sensible hut unselfish citizens, who ask nothing for themeslves, least of all patronage, should work for their man just as hard as the patronageâ€"hungry political machine man. He has usually deprecated leaderâ€" ship groups because they usually reâ€" cruited a following without having any place in particular to take them. But he is immensely dissatisfied with the two oldâ€"line political parties and the patronage and big contributions from big business that keep them funcâ€" tioning. for this démocratic form of being govâ€" ernedâ€"and then refusing to sacrifice a few days now and then to vote for the right man, or to help the right man get elected. Uncle Ed wonders why a group of sober. sane, solid and sensible voters don‘t get together in every electorate reston East Dome Mine Output Higher in June ALSO TO Barrle, Reardmore, Brantford, Brockville, Chatham, Cornwall, Geraldton, Hamilton, Kingston, London, Niagara Falls, Sarnia, 8t.

Often these days there are questions asked about Switzerland, and others are tempted to ask questions but are afraid to tempt the spirit of evil by even referring to the ong free country in the desert of Europe‘s slavery. How fares Switzerland? How is that Switzerland is one small neighbouring state not overâ€"run by the Nazis? What is going on in Switzerland? To these questions, only theoretical replies are possible. It is a fact no doubt that despite its small size Switzâ€" erland might put up such a resistance to Germany that the cost of occupaâ€" tion would be far in excess of any adâ€" vantage. Accordingly, it would seem that Germany in the case of Switzerâ€" land has adopted the policy of conâ€" trolling the country from without. From the German standpoint, thet plan has worked fairly well so far. But how are affairs inside Switzerâ€" land? It is difficult to answer this question in very satisfactory way. It is a tough problem to get any facts past the censor. But the following extracts from a letter from Switzerâ€" land may give a hint of conditions as they are in Switzerland:â€"â€" Lugano, April 1. "We have ‘blackâ€"out‘ at 10 o‘clock, There are very few cars about on acâ€" count of shortage of petrol, and It costs a franc a litre (about 6s a galâ€" lon).
