"I onlv trust thev will hpln tn snlvp problem that Is facing be- wildcrcd parents today." Urging that parents who may have any home ideas pass them along for the mutual benefit of parents and children, this mother prescribes as follows means to win the companionship of the boys and girls: When children are as young as three years start training their little minds by telling them stories that lend to their character building. Get some stories such as ''Uncle Arthur Bedtime Stories" or "Golden Stories" and read them through until you are acquainted with them. Then tell them to the children. Do not read them, unless you are a very - , ....... r; " -- or Just on a Saturday night but tell them. As the children grow older, up to ten or eleven years they begin to prefer longer stofies. They prefer to have the stories read at this age. Select character stories from such current magazines as "Progress" or "Wee Wisdom' 'or "Child Life" but read these stories to them so that you are sure they are getting the right type of literature and absorbing it. From eleven years to fourteen .years select books of high quality and read them aloud. If one of the children happeas to be a good reader then let that one take turns at reading it. Read a chapter or two a night. There will be great interest each nhjht to sec what Is going to happen next in the story. Some very good books that lend themselves to cheerful oral 'reading arc "Black Beauty," "The Dog Cru soe." "Anne of Green Gables," "Dandelion Cottage," etc. It is a good plan to pick out a favorite author and read aloud as many of his books as possible. You really feel friendly with the author then. Good books can be read over and over again. Kipling lends a great store of good stories to the young listener as well as to the older people. You will, love doing this when you really' get Into it with your heart. Set aside one "night a week to play with your children prefer ably Saturday or Friday. l,ci them stay up past tnclr usual bedtime and help them to enjoy playing games with you. Teach them a few card games. Buy Inexpensive games such as "Par-chessl," "Spinaroo," "Ring Toss," "Chinese' Checkers," and really play a competitive game with your child. Watch their sportsmanship and guide it into fair channels. The kiddles win en-Joy it so much that they will be saving their pennies to buy larger and better games to play. Don't be afraid to devote one full evening to them. You'll find It worth it. Always finish up their cve- NEW TURN IN STRIKE Development in Way or Company "Decteion" May lie Forthcoming Today WINDSOR, Nov.

JR.

Unless there TRIBUTE TO CONTROLLER Good Job of T. C. Lockwood In Directing War Rail Transport Acknowledged MONTREAL, Nov. 9 Canadian railways officials paid high tribute on the retiring controller of transport, T. C. Lockwood, whose resignation hag. Just been announced. R. C. Vaughan, chairman and president, Canadian National Railways, said: "The vast work done by this railway organization was assist ed at all times by Mr. Lockwood Transport control was set up by Mr. Howe, then minister of transport, in November. 1939 and .tbecntroUer, waaiglveit powers by order in council in respect to priority of movement of war materials and foodstuffs from the manufacturers and delivery of them at the seaboard and on to the battlefrcnts as required. This movement grew rapidly until it reached Its peak in 1941, "The War Office in London relied on the prompt and efficient manner in which the war supplies for their own troops, Canadian troops and the Allies were produced and delivered. Frequently Canada was called upon, to fill space on ministry of war transport vessels loading in the Gulf of Mexico and South Atlantic. This was brought about owing to, the fact that the rall-ioad.3 placed at the disposal of the transport controller 16 large railway concentration dumps In Canada where the war materials were assembled and made available for quick movement. "The transport controller, In addition to this, arranged priority' for troop movements from Canada and, later on, their return to Canada. The return movement, of course, from Britain has taken up most cf. the supply of pullman and dining cafs cn account of the long haul from the seaboard. The public have recognized this and have made no serious complaint as one and all seemed to desire above everything else that the boys be brought home as quickly as possible. "The control, of course, could not have functioned without 100 per cent co-operation from both cf Canada's large railway orsan-iaztions, who not v only loaned their men to assist In the work but carried out fully all the orders and arrangements made by the control, as well as for the army, air force and navy. Ah Immense volume of business, was handled successfully and, In addition to maximum quantities moving through Canadian ports, the volume of war supplies and foodstuffs from Canada moved through United States ports to the extent of two and one half million tons a year."

NO DANGER OF SHORTAGE ' Meal Stocks Are Ample In 'rSvitetPfjalli'Servk-eJV. Interruption In spite of the fact that Prince Rupert will be without train service until Monday the city is in no danger of experiencing, a fresh meat shortage. However, smoked meats are at present unobtainable. Local meat 'wholesalers have' had ample supplies of beef, lamb and veal shipped to the city by boat and are unanimous in their statements that fresh meats will be in normal supply. The smoked meat shortage, they say, is. general throughout Canada and has been only slightly aggravated by the transportation tlc-up. "Smoked meats are In short supply because 90 per cenUof the hogs slaughtered in Canada'in October were shipped overseas and the remaining 10 per-.cent couldn't be expected to go very far when It is spread overthc domestic market," one "meat wholesaler said. "I thmk that we In Prince Rupert have done' very well. The smoked meats have been evenly distributed."
