Basketball, boxing and other forms of sport are fine for building up a strong, healthy body, but has your ball-playing son thought of how the study of music can improve his prowess in the field of sport by adding rhythm and accurate timing to his movement? Readers must have the most sincere interest of their sons or daughters . at heart. By giving them an opportunity to study music they are doing their finest duty as parents. For music builds, creates and develops the finest in every child. It builds character. Out of 1700 rhiiriron lay-Awayfc CHRISTMAS Girt NOW!!

You could have knocked Mr. Peabody over with a feather. For there, right through the window of his own room, came a rainbow. And at the end of it was a huge pot of gold ! As he approached It to see if it was real, he heard the sound of bells. "The whole town hat heard of this!" thought Mr. Peabody. "That's why the bells are ringing." And the sound of the bells grew louder . . . Jouder . . . LOUDER . . . Mr. Peabody awoke with a start. The alarm clock beside his bed was ringing . . . ringing . . . RINGING. Shutting it off, he sighed sadly, got up and dressed. j At the breakfast table Mr. Peabody read his newspaper. In it a speaker was reported to have said that old-age benefits should provide everybody with enough to retire on. "Hmmphl" snorted Mr. Peabody to himself. "More rainbows 1 I like the idea of additional help for older people. But to build the kind of comfortable old-age income want, I fully expect to need all my life insurance - and maybe more. It gives my family protection now. And it covers my own special needs in a way no mass programme could possibly do." Arriving at the office, Mr. Peabody. like millions of other Canadians, began another day of earning and saving for his future security with life insurance. "Even without pots of gold. It's. a pretty good world." he said to himself. And as he worked, he began to whistle softly. WHAT OF MIDDLE CLASS? CANADIANS are still among the most fortunate jot pepples but one important group of them, the'hite collar ed. or middle class, is not quite so ; fortunate as it was 10 years ago, says Financial , Post; Some new official information on personal ', income arid expenditures is worth the most careful study. It indicates some significant deterioration in the economic standing of a group this country or any other can ill afford to see weakened. It may not be news to the hard-pressed house-wjte, but it is of national significance nevertheless, that Canadians are spending a considerably higher proportion of their incomes on the bare necessities like food and less on such' things as books, recreation, travel and education than they were in 1939. ; i They are also spending less, in some cases much less, on household help, clothing, medical care and funerals- On automobiles they are spending a little higher percentage of their earnings but on gasoline and oil a little less which means that motor cars cost a good deal more than they did in 1939, but we ure not taking so many long drives because tras cost far more too. firJlw .d0T'an? diRested these statistics con-; i , long been suspected, namely that the standard of living of our middle or white collared class, which suffered a body blow during the war tlZ?
