WHEAT A Coincidence
On rare occasions elevator agents load the same car with grain twice in a crop. year The against this happening figures up into the many thousands. It is like making a hole in one at golf. But K,. H. Johnston, Alberta Wheat Pool agent at Conrich, had the exception- al experience of doing this twice during the current crop year. The first time the incident happened was with ‘C.N.R. car No. 504,457. On August 23, 9321, Mr. Johnston filled this car with 2 Northern for Vah- couver. He was loading the same grade of wheat for the same destina- tion on September 27 when lo and behold! the same car popped up again, old 504,457! The next time thi, happened was with car 504,858. On Jan. 9, 1933, this C, N. car was loaded with 2 Northern for Van- couver. Qn April 26 along it came again and Mr. Johnston was ready with another load of 2 Northern for Vancouver. These cars apparently are extremely fond of Conrich and know their way back there. Further, Conrich seems to grow plenty of 2 Northern. In the competition for loading cars twice in one season, it looks like Mr. Johnston hag won the crown.
Elevators in Australia
New South Wales is the only state in Australia t ohave grain el- evators in operation. They are owned by the state government, the terminal elevator at Sydney and the 84 country elevators having been constructed from plans and specifi- cations supplied by ‘Canada. The terminal elevator itself was erected under thepersonal supervision of a Canadian elevator engineer of wide experience.
Plan to Maintain Quality
of Wheat Calgary Herald—the Alberta Wheat Pool is doing a splendid

I—l think I'll wear it, for fun.” She held out her hand at arm’ 8 length and surveyed it with mingl- ed feelings of admiration and un- easiness. The two rings gave her hand an unfamilar look and she felt as if she were borrowing some one els’s jewelry and masquerading as a married woman just for a joke. “Now for downstairs. I think at last I'll really find out something— but I feel like Alice in Wonderland.’ Joyce hesitated at the top of the beat

“Thank you,” smiled Joyce, wish- ing she knew th emaid'’s name, “I feel all right except for a headache and a little stiffness, But I'm hungry and I would like some breakfast, please."
The look of relief on the woman's face was 80 strong ag to amount al- most to gratitude. There was some- thin gdog-like about it that touched Joyee and made her uncomfortable at the same time.
“I'll have Maria fix it right away, ma’am, What would you like?"
“Oh, well, iet me see. Some coffee and toast and bacon and eggs. And ... and orange juice, I think.” As the maid turned away she added; “By the way, was there any mail this morning?”
“Why, no, ma’am, there wouldn't be any today; it’s Sunday, you know.”
“Of course; how stupid of me to forget,’’ murmumed Joyce, blushing. Disappointed, she strolled back to the living room to wait for break- fast. She had hoped there would be a letter; it was so peculiar not to know your own last name.
On a three-tier green table set close to the back of a strangely up- holstered davenport lay a few maga- zines.
At the bottom of the pile she found a Saturday Evening Post, and on the tiny yellow address label were printed the words, ‘‘Neil Pack- ard. Manzanita, Cal.”
“Neil Packard, Manzanita, Cal.!" exclaimed Joyce under her breath, ‘California! Well, that’s some jump from Philadelphia. About as far
away as I could get. And 80 hig name

violently again and her courage rap- idly oozing.
But in a few moment, she gather- ed up her courage again, urged on by a combination of curiosity and to her surprise a disinct sensation of hunger. She wanted some break- fast right away! A cup of coffee would help to steady hed nerves...
At the foot of the stairs she found a long living-room with French win- dows. It was furnished with new and curious furniture of a type that Joyce had never before seen and that, unexpectingly confronting her caused her to gasp. The tables, chairs, and lamps were fantasically colored and shaped, and there were here and there, ornaments so comic that she burst out laughing.
She picked her way gingerly amid furniture that wag vaguely remins- eent of the New York skyscrapers, and crossed the living-room, think- ing ay She glanced through the glass doors, that she must get out into that heavenly garden immediately after breakfast and pick at least one rose before someone told her to keep off the grass.
The wonderful sunniness of all these rooms! The dining-room, though smaller than the living room wag light and cheerful, with its long open windows framed in tose vines. What a pleasant place to eat break- fast!
She herd sounds from beyond the opposite door—low voices, the elink of china, a sudden rush of water, and the rustle of paper, Just as she wag wondering whether to go into the kitchen and announce her
ring, the door opened and a woman in a maid’s uniform of blue cham- bray appeared. She was probably about forty years old, a plump com- fortable-looking sort of person with a round, red face, smooth black hair and blue eyes.
Seeing Joyce she started in sur- prise and exclaimed, speaking rapid- ly and sounding a not. of apology, “We thought you must be still asleep, ma'am, and we didn’t want to disturb you, not being sure how you'd be feeling this morning after your fall, and all. Ain't it fine that you're able to be up? Ma'am, would have some breakfast this morn-

She looked out of the window at the wealth of flowers blooming in the garden. ‘‘No wonder there are orange trees and roses! No wonder the hills and mountains are so dif- ferent from any I ever saw!”
The maid appeared to _ tell that breakfast was ready.
The commonplaceness of the din-
her
ing room furniture proved a wel- come relief to Joyce after the “‘modernistic’’ living room,
Joyce took up the thin glass of orange juice which nestled in a bed of cracked ice. It was deliciously sweet and refreshing.
“When I consider how, in my old life, I could get a thrill out of find- ing one of Aldoug Huxley’s or Robt.
Ainsworth's books on the’ bargain conter at Leary's, I wonder I’m not dizzy with excitement at = all these thrills piled on me all at onee, There's too much of it... .
I can’t make myself believe I won't wake up in a few minutes and find myself in some little, stuffy hall bedroom in a noisy city... .”
She drew in her breath sharply, wilted in spirit at the thought.
Just then the maid brought | the rest of her breakfast.
“Is there anything else you'd like, Mrs. Packard?’’ the woman lingered
in
to ask. “Oh, no, thank you,’ replied Joyce, restraining an impulse to
show her enthusiasm. She resolved that she must be as noncommittal ag possible for a while.
When she was alone again Joyce ate with relish, finishing every scrap of the jam, every crumb of toast, and every drop of coffee.
When the maid appeared again, she had made up her mind. “It anyone telephones or calls, will you please say that I have a ‘headache an ddon’t feel like talking or seeing anyone?"
She strolled out toward the gard- en to examine the flowers, planning to walk around to the other side of the house to see what sort of land- scape would greet her there.
It wag so intensely thrilling to try to realize herself in California! But just as she stepped out into the warm sunshine, maryeling at amazing clearness. of the phere,, she heard the telephone bell ring. The telephone Wag on a stand

What she must find now were letters and other evidénce to enlighten her further.
In her bedroom again she dis- covered that one of the mirrors be- side the dressing table formed the panel of a door. “This,” murmured Joyce, turning the glass handle and looking into the next room, “must be my boudoir! Ah, there’s a desk at last. I was just beginning to wonder whether there was any place in this whole house where one could Write a letter. Now I certainly ought to discover something more.”
She bat down at the desk. ‘“‘Now I feel like a real crook,’’ she thought uncomfortably, ‘reading somebody else’s letters!”
In spite of the handsome fittings, it was' an untidy desk, catrying a scattered litter of accumulated odds and ends, with dust plainly visible all ovér it. Scraps of paper, several pencils with broken points, a ragged much-used piece of blotting paper, matches and loose cigarettes, a half empty box of aspirin tablets . . and here were four calling cards (with the name ‘Mr. Arthur Milford | Maitland” er

A HEALTH SERVICE OF THE CANADIAN MEDICAL ASSGCIATION ANDO LIFE INSURANCE COMPANIES
IN CANADA GROWTH “Great oaks from little acorns grow.’’ The human body develops
from one minute cell. It seemg al- most incredible that our complex ‘bodies with their highly specialized
tissues and organs have their be- cianlne in th esame single cell, the s ‘orm of life.
The one cell, which is the be- ginning of life, grows and multi-
plies until it hag produced the mil- liong of cells which make up_ the human body. We do not know what causes the cell to multiply—this factor is the spark of life istelf.
Ag all parts of the body have their ;common origin in one cell, 80. do {they remain interdependent through life. A healthy body is healthy in pan its parts. Disease in any one part affects the whole structure. Food and oxygen are required by all body cells. Without food and oxygen the cells soon perish, while a lack of these substances results in faulty growth.
The food we take into our mouths must bé’ altered before it can be used. This change begins in the mouth where the food is mixed with saliva, and the process of digestion starts with certain changes in the starchy foods. The presence of food

in the mouth calls forth a flow of saliva. Because of. past associations the sight or smell of food has the same effect and it is a fact that our mouths actually water at the sight or smell of food.
The saliva not only acts as a di- gestive fluid but it also dissolve, the food and so makes it easier to swal- low. In addition, the saliva keeps the mouth clean and lubricates the parts. A dry mouth is uncomfort- able and interferes with speech.
Passing down the gullet, the food reaches the stomach. The stomach also waters at the sight and smell of food, and as a result of the taste of food in the mouth. Gastric juice
-]is therefore ready in the stomach to
continue the process of digestion. The gastric juice is the only body fluid which is acid. The cells lining the stomach are capable of resisting the effects of this acid fluid. The normal stomach is acid or sour. The flow of gastric juice ig inter- fered with by emotional upsets. This is one reason why unpleasant or irri-
ritating subjects should not be mentioned at meal time. There is some truth in the saying, ‘‘Laugh
and grow fat.’’ Pleasant conditions at meal time do promote good _ di- gestion.
From the stomach the food passes to the intestines where digestion is completed, and the food absorbed
