Hall and wife? 2. la it right to show a hand to the dummy when playing bridge ? 3. la it obligatory that a man help his wife to entertain their guests? 4. As ten per cent is the cor- net amount for tipping In a res- taurant, is it all right to tip five cents when one's meal costs fifty cents? 5. b it permissible for a girl on a vacation trip to send a pic- ture postcard to a young man who has not asked her to write? 6. When a sudden death oc- curs in family after wedding Invitations have been mailed, ihould the wedding be postponed? Answers 1. No. Write Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Hall. 2. N'o, and it is often annoying to players to have onlrokers. If one wishes to watch a game, ask permission to do so, and keep quiet if such permission Is given. It is the height of bad manners to make any comments on the play. 3. Yes, the man, as host, is equally obligated to assume his part of the entertain- ing, helping his wife in every pos- ible way. 4. No; ten cents is considered the minimum, ten per cent when the bill is one dollar or more. 5. Yes. 6. Not neces- sarily. However, the plans should be changed. Recall all invitations excepting those of the two imme- diate families, and have the wed- ding as quiet as possible. t HAVE TOD BEARD? "I want a dozen of your planes," he ordered; "they must be ready three nights from now." "Impossible !" exclaimed the works manager. "I command!" roared Goering. "The crews will be here at the time stated." The time came, and so did the crews. German efficiency had triumphed; there were the planes. Without loss of time they set out for their target England. Over London the leading pilot pulled the bomb-release lever nd out dropped three of the fac- tory's night shift. Proprietor: "You come into my restaurant, you order |Iu* of vater, you drink it, nd you calmly valk out!" Scot: "What were ye ex- pectin* me to do, mon? Stag- rr ,017" Thomas B. Reed, once speaker of the U.S. Houte of Representa- tives, was the author of many quips. One day an effort was being made to secure a quorum. Telegrams were sent to the ab- Mnt members. One man, delayed by a flood which covered the rail- road llnei, wired: "Washout on line; can't come." Reed wired back: "Buy another kirt and come on next train." A woman wearing an eff- the-face hat the had just bought kd h , r Nefro cook iew .. flked It. / "If. * right pretty nat," Mk gave judgment. "But It auah do make yo* f< yubli. History wows that !t does not always pays to do a thing your- self. A workman in London was told by his wife that the sitting- room needed papering. "I'll do it myself," he said. He sent his wife to the cinema and set to work. When his wife returned, he had finished the job. She looked at the walls. "What are those bumps on the walls?" she asked. "Eh," he answered, "I thought I had something wrong. It didn't look right, somehow. It's the blooming pictures." Mr. Green: "I am going to enter my dog for the show this year." Mr. Black: "My goodneo! Do you think he will win?" Mr. Green: "No, but he will meet some very nice dogi." Daily Ocean Flights Near Pan-American Head Foresees 12-Hour Non-Stop Trips Across Atlantic Soon Multiple daily schedules requir- ing 12 hours for non-stop contin- ent-to-continent flights may be expected of trans-oceanic air ser- vice within the next two years, J. T. Trippe, Pan American Air- ways system president, told the annual meeting: of the Royal Aeronautical Society in London, England. He delivered the 29th Wilbur Wright memorial lecture. New-type clipper planes, de- tails of which Mr. Trippe said he was not at liberty to disclose, are expected to be delivered early next year. These planes should permit cruising speeds of at least 75 to 100 miles an hour greater than those now available and would be geared for high-altitude, supercharged operations, he said. S : Tiee May, 1939, when Pan American began trans-Atlantic flights, the Clipper planes now in operation have completed 362 scheduled crossings, flying more than 20,500,000 passenger miles without incident, Mr. Trippe said. The planes have carried 4,685 passengers and 810,740 pounds of mail. The war has brought about "forced-draft technical advance- ment" of trans-Atlantic air ser- vice, he told the society, causing the airline to carry passenger and mail loads as great as 10 times the originally estimated volume of traffic. The war has trans- ferred to the airplane about 30 per cent of the total trans-Atlan- tic mails, he said. Ontario Cuts Toll In Meningitis Cases Dr. .1. T. Phair, chief medical of- ficer for Ontario, said last month that early diagnosis, followed by treatment with new chemical drugs and with serum, has held the death rate in cerebro spinal men- ingitis down to 12 per cent., a new low in Ontario history. Since Jan. 5 there have been 294 cases and 35 deaths, he said. During the first Great War when meningitis was even more preva- lent than now, the death rate ran between 50 and 76 pei* cent. Dr. Phair said there was no svidence that the incidence of the disease was decreasing, although normally its rate is higher in the winter months.

Of this total, well over one-third, 666, are published in Ontario. The Province of Que- bec ranks next with 390. Over half of all Canadian publications are weeklies 984 as compared with 112 dailies and 462 month- lies. 666 In Ontario It is interesting to note that Canada supports sixty-four for- eign language publications among which there are four dailies in Chinese, two in Japanese and two in Jewish. Foreign publications in Canada are printed in sixteen languages which include Croatian, Czecho-Slovak, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, German, Hungarian, Ice- landic, Italian, Norwegian, Polish, Swedish and Ukrainian. McKim's Directory has become practically a national institution and is widely circulated at home and abroad. The publication sum- marizes exhaustive information on markets, media and populations throughout Canada, constituting an industrial analysis reference of all towns in which publications are printed.

What Science Is Doing MORPHINE MAY KILL If you want to stay alive through an attack of asthma, don't permit anyone, not even a doctor, to give you morphine. Asthma itself seldom or never kills, Dr. Warren T. Vaughan, of Richmond, Ga., explained at a symposium held by the American Association for the Sutdy of Al- lergy. But morphine may kill, he added anyone affected with asth- ma. o PLANTS AND SUN Some plants can become so sen- sitive to light that full sunlight will cause them to become pros- trate, and when the light is re- duced they can regain an erect position. Dr. D. G. Langham, . making researches at the Institute for Experimental Agriculture at El Valle, Caracas, Venezuela, re- ported in the current issue of "Science" that a potted plant of teosinte, a large grass resembling corn, drooped when grown in a greenhouse, but when removed to a shaded locality recovered its erect position. Seeds from this plant produced offspring that had the game sensitivity. o SHOT OF SUNSHINE Recovery of a large number of apparently hopeless infection cases after the injection of a shot of "sunshine" directly into the bloodstream was recently report- ed to the American Institute of Homeopathy. In the treatment the patient's own blood was irradiated by expos- ure to strong ultra-violet rays from a mercury vapor lamp in much the same fashion that milk is treated by dairies to give It vitamin D the sunshine factor. An automatic transfusion pump was used and the patient's circula- tion was not disturbed except for the detour the blood took through the pump and the small irradia- tion chamber where it was expos- ed to ultra-violet rays before re- entering the body. C.N.R. May Revenue Up Over 100 P.C. After payment of operating expenses, the net revenue of the Canadian National Railways' all- inclusive system in the month of May amounted to 17,788,841, an increase of $4,276,907 as com- pared with the corresponding month of 1940. Net revenue for thf five months of 1941 totalled $25,279,769 an increase of $14,- 640,893 over the five months of 1940. Operating revenues for May, 1941, were $26,725,770 compared with $20,281,335 for May, 1940. For the first five months of the present year, operating revenues amounted to $116,073,136. For the corresponding five months of 1940 the operating revenues am- ounted to $91,321,614. Canadian National Railways Revenues The gross revenues for the all- inclusive Canadian National Rail- ways for the week-ending June 21, 1941 were $6,008,579 as com- pared with $5,063,551 for the corresponding week of 1940, an increase of $945,028 or 18.7%. The output of central electric stations in Canada reached a new high record in April at 2,693,353,- 000 kilowatt hours as compared with 2,631,809,000 kilowatt hours in March and 2,398,722,000 kilo- watt hours in April 1940 How Can I? BY ANNE ASHLEY Q. How can I wash a small Oriental rug? A. Rub the surface with a lather of pure white soap. Then rub off as much soap as possible and rinse with cloths dipped in clear cool water. Dry thoroughly. Q. How can I make a disin- fectant? A. A home-made disinfectant, both efficient and inexpensive, can be made by completely sub- merging a small quantity (about half a can) of chloride of lime in vinegar. The gases released by this mixture will destroy germs and unpleasant odors. Q. How can I prevent old po- tatoes from turning black when boiling? A. If a teaspoonful of vinegar is added to _ the water, they will not turn black, in spite of their age. Q. How can I clean brick tiles? A. Washing brick tiles with vinegar makes them look like new. Q. How can I make frosted glass for a bathroom or sleeping porch window? A. Clean the glass with gaso- line. Then cover with white tis- sue paper which fits exactly and apply clear waterproof varnish thinned 25 per cent with turpen- tine. The varnish soaks through the paper sticking it to the glass, and thus effects a frosted win- dow.
