*-HE BROUGHT A UNITED CANADA INTO THE WAR, AND IN SPITE OF THE STRAINS IMPOSED ON HER, CONTINUED TO PRESERVE HER UNITY." Canada's JiKist noted Statesman, the late William I-yon Mackenzie King-, is seen here with Governor (leneral Alexander and I.ouis L. St. Laurent on the occasion of the latter's beins^ sworn in as Prime Minister. Have They No Seoul? Now tliat we have to keep an ear glued to the radio again â€" this time to keep up with what's going on in Korea â€" we have become acutely conscious that military, po- litical and ideological matters are not the only problcnTs concerning Seoul. Now Seoul is a nice word for writing â€" short, snappy, fine for headlines, easy to produce on a typewriter and generally not in the same league with a word like Pyongyang. Hut saying Seoul is noniething else again, and in the brief time thus far in which radio announcers have had to wrestle with it, it has come out Sce-ule, Sole, .Sule, and no doubt several other things. . . . Kxtcnsive research â€" in three dic- tionaries â€" only confirms our prev- ious opinion that lexicographers aren't as authoritative as they're cracked up to be. The American College Dictionary ( handy desk, or paper weight, size) recommends Sah-ool, with the oo as in book. Or, alternatively, .Syoeool, which monstrosity it claims is the Korean way of pronouncing it. However, Webster's New Inter- national (Second l£d. Unabr., Regu- lar Style, Weight \6'/i lbs.) holds out from its authoritative eminence for Se-ool, with the e as in end and the oo as in either fool or book. But proving that Webster's right hand knows not what its left >> doing, Webster'.s Gtographical Dictionary rightcou.sly advises Sole, or still another, Sah-ule, and makes no mention at all of Se-ool. That makes six approved ver- sions so far, and leaves the poor fadio announcer with nothing to do except try to cluck the issue, which is what Webster's Geograp- hical Dictionary does anyway by hiding the whole thing under Kcijo (Kajo). It adds, however, that Kyongsong is perfectly all right, loo. â€" St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Customer: "Just suit my wife. If there's anything she loves it is the b«t word." I ANy€ HIRST "Dear Anne Hirst: I feel like packing up and leaving. I see no future living with a man who doesn't want a home and children. We've been married five years, and wc have neither. "My husband doesn't stay with a job; he's al- ways looking for another one. He never saves a nickel for the future. Every- thing he makes he keeps in his billfold, never makes a bank deposit. He even sold his interest in a business, and now just works there by the day. "He gets angry at any little thing, and goes home to his mother . . . the last time, he was gone three days. When I took him back, he cried like a baby. He said he'd never do it again; that he wanted a home and children, and to prove his love he'd even join my church. "Since that time, he has never mentioned any of these things! "Except for these outbursts, he never fusses. He is easy to get along with, and is kind. I just don't understand him. "When my Daddy died, he left us enough to buy a house. I still have that money. "I am getting tired of putting up with all this uncertainty. What shall I do? We arc both 25. MRS. J. R." ♦ Five years ago, you married ♦ your husband because you loved ♦ him, and because you wanted a ♦ home and children. He married ♦ you because ho loved you â€" but ♦ apparently he thought no fur- ♦ Ihcr into the future than wanting ♦ to make sure you were his own. ♦ Companionship is not enough ♦ to keep most women content. ♦ They want a home and children ♦ growing up around them. They ♦ want a husband they can depend ♦ upon. ♦ For all this you have waited * five long years, and with every * renewed hope you have seen your * dreains brushed aside. * Your husband knows you want * this normal life. When you took * him back, he vowed it would be * yours â€" * Vet he has not set aside a dime * to make your dreams come true. * He has given up a sound invest- * ment for day-work. He docs not * stay long enough in one position * to get ahead. He is never con- * tented, always wishing for the * moon. * 111 other words, he shirks re- * sponsibility. Tell your husband * that you want him to start sav- * ing regularly, a part of what he * earns. .\nd that when he has * proven that he can and will, you * will invest your inheritance in a * home, and plan to raise a family. * If he does not want this, now is * the time to say so. It is time '* that he settled down, time he be- * came the stable partner in your * plans. If he will not, then your * marriage is not the marriage you * want. » * * A man will promise anything to persuade the girl he loves to be- come his wife. It is HOW he keeps his word that matters . . . Tell your troubles to Anne Hirst, and get the benefit of her wisdom. Ad- dress her at Box 1, 123 Eighteenth St., New Toronto, Ont.

The Ontario Department of Lands and I'orests says that a ques- tion often put to its rangers is: "Is there such a thing as an ideal list of groceries ade<|uatc for a two week canoe trip?" There are to many complications that the rangers, accustonaed to making long wilderness treks, hesi- tate to answer it. Hut the depart- ment says that one list suggested for two persons on a two week canoe trip â€" provided that fish will provide the bulk of at least one of each three meals a day â€" is: "I'lour, 20 pounds; baking powder half pomid; cereals, 10 pounds; granulated sugar, 10 pounds; table salt, two pounds; pepper, one can; whole milk powder, three poimds; white navy beans, seven pounds: bacon, seven pounds;, tea, one pound; coffee (concentrated), two jars; dried fruit, 10 pounds; shorten- ing or lar<l, three pounds; canned butter, three poiuuls; sweet choco- late, three pounds; maple syrup, one f,uart; potatoes, onions or fresh fruit, as desired." Essential cooking utensils are; '"Medium sized double boiler; fry- ing pan; colTcc pot; saucepan; light wire broiler; can opener; folding reflecting baker; large spoon; cake or egg turner; butcher knife; kettle; deep pot with swinging wire handle; plates, cups, cutlery, etc." Did you say two people? Did you say a canoe? .\apicr Moore'i "Sketch Book." TT**- This is a world of disillusion, and somebody is always cominj along and kicking the living whey out of our pet beliefs. First thing we know we're going to lose faith in Santa Claus. * * * We knew, on the evidence of James L. Sutherland and other residents of the beautiful Limestone City, that Kingston was the birth- place of hockey, and the only fitting place for a shrine dedicated to the world's fastest sport. Then, some- body ups and proves that the sport was invented in some entirely diff- erent spot â€" the leading contestants for the honor, at present writing being Montreal, Quebec, Halifax, Nova Scotia, and Nijni Novgorod, Russia, with several polling-places still to be heard from. » ♦ * That Abner Doubleday and his playmates down in Cooperstown, N.Y. were responsible for the boon of the world's greatest sport â€" to wit, baseball (as if you had to be told). But, as reported here re- cently, some iconoclast has gone and discovered that the beastly English were even CALLING it "baseball" long before we folks on this side of the pond had any sport outside of trying to save our scalps. * * ♦ .^lHl so it goes. Up to a week or so ago we innocently thought that gambling was gambling, no mat- ter whether it was shooting crap in an alley or plunging on the Red at Monte Carlo, or if j'ou did it at nine a.m. or 11 p.m. But live and learn; so we discover, on the au- thority of Mr. George McCullagh's esteemed Globe and Mail that the Pari Mutuel machines, that are quite O.K. at Woodbine. DufTerin and other tracks where Mr. McC. races his Thoroughbreds, would â-  turn into "iron pickpockets" if they were in operation under floodlights at Thorncliffe Raceway. (Railway claims agents used to say the quickest way to improve the breed of cattle was to cross a conunon cow • wit'n a C.P.R. freight. Some sort of reverse action seems to bj the case here â€" the quickest way to turn The Sport of Kings into a "sucker game" is to cross a Mutuel Machine with a Trotter or Pacer.) * * * -All of which is a lead-up to our latest piece of disillusionment, and it is, if we may be pardoned for using such an expression, a honey. In all probability everybody in the English-speaking world that can read words of more than two let- ters knows that, back on an October afternoon in 1932, the great Babe Ruth, in a World Series game vs. the Chicago Cubs, pointed to the exact spot on the outfield fence where he was going to park a four -bagger, and then did just exactly that very thing. » * * In fact there's a High School his- tory book entitled THE MAKlNCi OF MODERN AMERICA that has already been adopted as a basic textbook in certain .-Xcademies of Learning south of the border. And as the students avidly pore through the textbook, accepting it as Gos- pel we hope, one of the "historic"' pictures shows The Babe making that gesture, before gaping thou- sands. * ♦ ♦ But, according to a certain Mr. Root, the only drawback to this pretty tale is that it didn't happen. And Charley Root should know, if anybody living does, because he was the Chicago pitcher off whose servings The Bambino took bis helping. From now on the tale is Charley Root's, as reported by Bill Bryson in the Dcs Moines Register. * ♦ * Charley gritted his teeth so hard you could hear them grating upon his cigar holder. * * * "All right," he snapped. "I'll an- swer that once more â€" just once. But the next time anybody asks me about it, I'm going to turn and walk away. I'm sick and tired of if. * « * "So, once and for all â€" Ruth did not point at the fence before he swung. If he'd made a gesture like thatâ€" well, anybody who knows me knows that Babe would have wound up on his posterior. * ♦ ♦ "Sure, he was making gestures at our bench. We were really rid- ing the Yankees that seriesâ€" and they were digging the spurs into us, too, \Vc called each otlier everything we could think of. * » ♦ "With Babe up, our bench was giving him the business. They razz- e<l him about that first strike and then about the second. * » ♦ "He held up one finger and tlien two to show 'em he knew what the count was. » » ♦ "Vuu know. Babe had a habit of swinging his bat out at full length with his right hand before every pitcJi. He'd pull it back and taki- his two-handed grip. * * * "Maybe that's what gave sonte- ..Classified Advertising.. ACCOUNTING BOOKKBKPINO . ACCOUNTING 8EBVICE Irvlni N. Slioom, 17 Victoria 8t..
