International Golfers Compete For Seagram Gold Cup Emblem of Canadian Golfing Supremacy Pruented to the R.C.G.A. in 1936 by The Hou*e of Seagram At Lambton Golf Club, outside of Toronto, on the 7th, 8th nd 9th of August, the Canadian Open Golf Championship fa holding its 1941 tournament. World famous golfers, during thesa three days, will compete for the highest honor in Cana- dian golfing history, for the winner of this tournament this year will have his name inscribed on the Scroll of Honour within the Seagram Gold Cup, which, was presented six years ago to tie Royal Canadian Golf Association by The House of Sea- Cram, for annual competition. Since the cup was presented in 1936, the names of the most famous American golfers have been inscribed on the parchment scroll. First there was Lawson Little, then "Light- horse" Harry Cooper; in 1938 Sam Snead and in 1939 Harold "Jug" McSpaden; then in 1910, Sam Snead again. Since the Seagram Trophy was presented, there has probably never been in the mnals of Canadian golf history uch a gathering of world famous golfers as there has been in these Canadian Open Golf tournaments. Players who have made golfing history in many countries of the world have taken part in this tournament. The cup itself stands twenty-two inches from the bottom of the base to the top of the cup. It was designed by the ame firm which, in 1897, made the beautiful casket which Torontonians may still remember was presented by the City of Toronto to Queen Victoria, on the occasion of her Diamond Jubilee. One of the features of the cup is that its outstanding design, workmanship and materials are one hundred per cent Canadian. Standing on s massive base of onyx is the gold casket within which is the parchment scroll, where the names of the winners are inscribed from year to year. This design la similar to the one sent to Queen Victoria. The gold casket fa mounted on heavily chased silver feet and at the four corners, heavy Corinthian columns. Beavers act as supporters of the casket and the Coat of Arms of Canada, beautifully exe- cuted, appears on the front. Surmounted on this base, is the Seagram Cup itself, aUo Grecian in des : an and made of gold, The cup is of exceptional desiirn. with a beauty that is seldom seen in athletic trophies. There will be many thousands of people following, with great interest, the performances of Canada's most famous golfers as well as the golfers from the United States and other countries, who are competing now in this tournament. Any- where on the course, during these three days, such names as Gene Saraicn. Horton Smith, Ray Mangrum. Lex Robson, Sam Kerr, Bobby Gray and many other equally famous golfers will b seen making record-breaking rounds in competition with one another, for the honor of winning the Canadian Open Championship for 1941 and the Seasrram Gold Cup.

Taking refuge in his study, he left his wife to entertain the caller. Half an hour later he emerged from his retreat, listened carefully on the landing, and, hearing noth- ing below, called down to his wife: "Has that horrible old bore gone?" The woman was still in the draw- Ing room, bet the minister's wife proved equal to the occasion. "Yes, dear," she called back. "She went long ago! Mrs. Parke" Is here now." "So you married that plump little girl who used to giggle so much?" "Yes. I always did believe In a short wife and a merry one." A widower, confronted by the ad task of looking over the be- longings of his deceased wife, de- cided that th" only thing he would preserve was a hat which he had always admired and In which she had always looked "so sweet." It was placed carefully on a shelf and not disturbed nnti! discovered by wife number two. who inquired *bout It and was told It was pre- served in memory of his Hirst wife. After a time his second choice wag gathered to her fathers, and again the bereaved man selected one of her hate In which she. like the first had always looked "so srweet." This was placed beside the first hat Time healed the second wound and a third wife as Introduced to nlc household. She. too. was in- quisitive when she found the rc:l- Mnery and asked questions. The husband explained that the hats had beonged to her predeces- sors and were kept as mementoes. "That's all right." she replied. "But the next hat that goes ap there Is going to be a bowler."

Thousands of women go smiling thru "try Ins tunes" with LydU K. Ptnfcham's VUNtebn Compound fame xi- tor over 60 ye;vrs In re- llevlns female func- tional troubles. Try It! Bomb Mechanism Shown at C. N. E. In the Electrical and Engineer- ing Building will be Display- ed Interesting .Machaniam for Relear ir>g BomLs. Canadians have read for many months of the bombing of Lon- don and other British and Euro- pean cities, but few have ever had the opportunity of seeing the in- tricate mechanism in the modern bomber which carries the bombs and sends them hurtling earth- ward at the touch of a button. In the 17,500 square feet of dis- play space allotted to the exhibit of the Department of Munitions and Supply in the Electrical and Engineering Building at this year's Canadian National Exhibition, C. N.E. officials announce, such * mechanism will be mounted on a special frame so that visitors will be able to see exactly how the release is operated. Revolving Gun Turret In the same display a revol- ving gun turret, similar to that used in the big Canadian-built Bolingbroke bomber, will be in operation. There will be, it is stated, an actual Bo'.ingbroke bomber on exhibition outside the Electrical and Engineering Build- ing, the giant being much too large to admit to the inside dis- play. Visitors will be shown at first how the turret is turned hydraulically at a touch of the controls and how the machin* gun within the turret is brought to bear on its target It is emphasized that secrecy will surround certain of th oper- ations within the Department of Munitions and Supply war pro- duction plant, where bombs, Bren guns and other war supplies will be made at the Exhibition. Most of the production of war supplies, however, carried on by a large staff of rnen and women workers, will be on full view. The workers will come from munitions plants throughout the country and every article produced at the Exhibition will go to the assembly plants. Preliminary statistics place tne value of Canada's output of chem- icals and allied products In 1940 at I1S4.1J1I.S67. an increase of 15 per cent over 1939. When do elephants have eight legs?

What Science Is Doing LIQUID-FILLED TIRES Tires 100" liquid-filled, to weigh down the structurally light rear end of tractors, provide bet- ter traction. The lo^c solution of calcium chloride in water wfll not freeze above 20", reduces bouncing and sidewail buckling, requires little care because water will not diffuse through an inner tube as air does. The liquid dis- tributes pressure to all parts of the tire, unlike a solid filler. BREATH-DISTILLED WATER Dean A. Burstal: of the faculty of engineering at Melbojrr.e Uni- versity, Australia, has perfected an apparatus that distills para water frcm the human breath. It can be used to prolong: the life of people who are facing death from thirst such as in desert crossing or mine disaster*. WARM FLYING SUITS Elec:r\-a.'.y heated f'.y : .:-.ir suits have been so perfected that the . U.S. Army Air Corps has ordered 12,000 of them. In developing the suits, a Fiying Fortress crew last winter flew 10.000 feet up over Alaska in 30 weather, dressed only in long wool'.en un- derwear through which electrical coils were woven. The new suits are lighter and cheaper than the sheepskin garments now usetl and they leave a flier nimbler at his controls and guns. Heat can be adjusted for outside tempera- tures from 70* to 60*, can b increased to protect injured fliers from shock and pneumonia. An electrically heated uniform of* a German flier shot down over England, was found to be so In- efficient as to be nigh worthless.
