He left Toronto on Tuesday, for Miami, Florida and from there will go by ’plane to his destination, a distance of 1,000 miles.

He has been with the Scarboro Foreign Mission So ciety at Scarboro Bluffs for some time. In 1936 Father Moore was in China and spent about a year there. The work in that land was vastly in teresting and he regretted the fact that he had to leave the field there because of Japanese infiltration into the country. There is much work to be done in the mission field there. At the present time it is impossible to send anyone from Canadian churches there. Father Moore obtained his early education and his high school course at the Sacred Heart School and took an active part in the affairs of the parish for several years. He was ordained at St. Peter’s Church, Lon don, in September, 1934.

A very urgent appeal for more and more finished articles has been received from headquarters. Evi dently many other branches are find ing the number of workers and vol ume of completed work, decreasing. The war is far from over, and the need is greater than ever before. As the Red Cross follows our men. into the occupied countries they find an appalling need of clothing, espec ially for the children. Knitted articles also are badly needed, sol diers, air-men and those in the navy, are facing winter weather coupled with, a dampness that only woollen wear can relieve. Surely we can all make a special effort and bring back the volume of our Red Cross work to what it was a year ■go. 10 13 Respectfully submitted, E. W. Malcolm.

Rememberyour school days, when you had torepeat over and over the daily lea-sons? But you will recall that suchrepetition really drove home theknowledge which your teacher had inmind, and when you absorbed thatknowledge it was in your mind fora lifetime.It is this principle of repetition which nutritionists must employ to drive home the importance of vita mins to the human system in daily doses of three meals, and for just this reason our short talk this week is on the subject of that staple food, milk. A few years from now we shall all probably be able to take a casual glance at a menu and know at once whether it is adequate in vitamin content for the family. Therefore, shall we review once again the high qualities of milk, and the necessity of paying atten tion to its constant use. Whole milk is our most perfect food. It is the foremost in what is known as the protective food group which help to guard our bodies against the dangers of food deficien cies. Can you grown-ups honestly say that you take a minimum of half a pint per day and that the chil dren of the family get at least one pint? This is the time of year when cream soups taste especially good, and when milk puddings cooked to perfection in your electric oven- add necessary vitamins to complete® a fine dinner.

NATIONAL SELECTIVE SERVICE Delicious cream soups may be made from leftover or freshly cooked vegetables, such as peas, spinach, on ions, cabbage or cauliflower. Press the vegetables through a sieve, and to each cupful of pulp add two cups milk. Heat to the boiling point, sea son to taste with salt and pepper, and thicken slightly with about one tablespoon flour and milk mixed to a smooth paste. Simmer for two minutes, stirring constantly. A small piece of butter may be added just before serving. Try also the addi tion of grated carrot or chopped parsley which is not only good for health, but gives an attractive apearanco to the soup.• • « Have you tried Rice Pudding this way— Place 1-2 cup rice, 3% cups milk, 1-2 cup sugar (or lees) in double boiler and cook over low heat until tender—about one hour. Beat the yolk and white of one egg separately; add some of the rice to the egg yolk, then return to the double boiler and stir until it thickens. Turn out into bowl and let cool, then fold in the beaten white, add vanilla and sprinkle top with nub meg. • • • SPANISH CREAM 1% tbsp, plain gelatine 3 cups milk 3 - 1-8 tsp. salt 1-2 cup sugar (scant) 1 tsp. vanilla Soak gelatine in 1-4 cup of cold milk. Beat egg yolks, and add the sugar, salt and gradually the re mainder of the milk. Cook in a double boiler, stirring constantly until the mixture coats the spoon. Remove from the fire, pour over the softened gelatine and stir until it is dissolved. Place in a pan of cold water to cool and stir occasionally until it thickens. Before-it hardens, fold in the stiffly beaten whites and pour into a cold wet mould. Chill in electric refrigerator. Serves eight. TAKE A TIP 1.

"We’ve dispatched all orders,” re plied the manager, “afid allow me to inform you that we specialize in quick service.” “Quick service!"-, thundered the customer, as’he exhibited a.dress shirt with a large rent in it. “It looks to me as if you’ve been in a tearing hurry!” a Final arrangements for the annual national, or inter-provinejal, contests for junior farm club teams, and for educational features to be included inthe program for this national club week; have been completed by the Canadian Council on Boys’ and. Girls’ Club Work. The program opens with the arrival in Toronto on November 19th, of the teams of boys and girls from the nine provinces. Local district and provincial elim ination competitions have been held during the past few weeks, to select the provincial championship teams which will have the privilege o’f par ticipating in a national contest pro gram. Club teams, of two members each, will represent each. The teams will be accompanied by agricultural extension officers. On Monday, iNovember 20, oral examinations will be conducted in the Royal York Hotel, Toronto. The following day all of the contestants will go to the Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph, for the judging competitions. There will be contests in six projects, dairy cattle, beef cattle, swine, poultry, grain and potatoes. On Wednesday, November 22, the club group will have a tour through the packing plants and stockyards in West Toronto, and in th* evening of November 22nd will attend the annual dinner given by the Can adian Council on- Boys’ and Girls’ Club Work, when the speaker will be Miss Janet Strange, graduate of the West Scotland College ’of Agricul ture, now chief’ instructress in poul try and dairying at the Northamp tonshire Institute of Agriculture. Since 1940 she has been responsible for the training of many recruits for the British 'Women’s Land Army. The following day the chib will visit Niagara Falls and the plants of the International Harvester Company at Hamilton. The program will be concluded with a visit to Ottawa on Friday, November 24, where the members will have an op portunity to see some important points in the national capital. There are in Canada this year approximately 35,000 members of junior farm clubs in a variety of farm and farm home projects. Total enrolment has decreased slightly in ^ach of the past four years the result of wartime conditions in rural areas. Large numbers of - the farm youth have enlisted in the Armed .Forces or are engaged in essential war in dustry and those who have remained at home are contributing their full shares to the remarkably fine job that Canadian farmers are doing in the production of food so urgently required in wartime. The scarcity of young people in rural areas, transportation problems, the farm labour shortage and the fact that agricultural extension offi cers have many extra war-time duties have all had an effect on junior farm club work, but despite these and other difficulties, interest in 'junior farm activities on the part of mem bers, their parents and sponsoring or ganizations has been maintained to an inspiring degree. The manager of the travelling con cert party gazed glumly at the audience—five all told. "I say, old man,” he whimpered to the comedian, “how do you accoont for this?

Trustee C. A. Ackert outlined what had been done regarding the request from the Softball Associa tion. A contractor had given a rough estimate of the cost of installing a tunnel through the property as $6000. The cost of filling for the grounds for about 200 feet would be about $2000. Several members of the Board also gave their opinion on the mat ter and Secretary McLeod outlined the property rights that were entailed in such a project. He felt that the Board of Education should continue to control their property and that any expenditures should be made by the Board as capital expendi tures. Chairman Jackson appointed Trustees Ackert and Cornell to act on the committee with the council softball representatives with no spending power.

Smith. Oxford street, Ingersoll, was solemnized in the Methodist Church in Tollerton, Saturday, Sep tember 23. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. H. Hughes, and the wedding march was played by Miss Charnock, organist of the church and an old friend of the family. The bride who looked beautiful in her weddinggown of white suede satin, carried red roses and was given in marriage by her father, .Fred Eagle. She was assisted by her sister, Freda, wearing pink lace over satin and carrying pink roses. The groomsman was Pilot Officer H. Barton of Ottawa. Following the wedding a reception was held for 50 guests at the home of the bride's parents, White House Farm. The bride’s mother received, gowned in blue. The bride's going-away outfit con sisted of a two-piece blue dress with black accessories and a camel hair coat After a honeymoon spent in London and Henley on the Thames, the bride and bridegroom returned to their respective Air Force stations. Week, the Y’s Men held a meetingat the Coffee Shop Friday evoti-ing. with education as the mainths ■ Mr L. B 'Hyde, Inspectorof schools for Sooth Oxford, wasthe speaker and explained howth* (imutional nature of school children is being nurtured and cultivatedsc that they may develop into a truedemocratic generation.First prize winners of the publicspeaking contest held at the Commencement Exercises presented theaddresses to the gathering. Miss Lorraine Redhead spoke on “Inger soll in 1950”, and William Warden on “What Price Democracy?" Both these speakers excelled themselves and their addresses were followed with interest and appreciation. Mr. Hyde pointed out that the present system of education was directed towards the development of the student, emotionally, intel lectually, socially and physically. To cultivate the emotional nature we must start with the very young and only these can form the democratic world we are all hoping for, The tdacher and parent must con sider the emotional nature of the child, as his feelings are easily hurt and the most unhappiness can arise from this source. Affection must be shown, the feeling of being loved, is the strongest force in the world is developed by comradeship in the home and school and with playmates and the community. The child must also possess the sense of belonging somewhere, must feel that there is some certain duty to perform, which no one else can do. The feeling of independence has also to be cultivated, so that the student can direct and handle his own aflhirs. He is not blindly toldto do 4'. certain act, but is made to unders^nd why he is doing that certaip act. Thus he stands on his own feet, can make decisions and be guided] diplomatically. As to IJachievement, Mr. Hyde a new this war is over. Under present conditions, boys are receiving men’s wages and they have a warped sense of values. Such conditions present fertile grounds for radical ideas and attention has to he paid to this handicap of the war. The jjvorld has changed, east has met west, there are no geo graphical horizons to conquer, and for this reason the student must be shown that there are new fields to be conquered in science, art, medi cine and numerous other endeavours, and that adventure and the satisfact ion of accomplishing something lie in- all or any one of these fields. The idea of service to humanity is also cultivated. In all the activities of life we get out of them only what we put into them. Success is not a matter of finance, but depends on the feeling of good will that the rest of the community has towards you for your service. We must give special recognition of honest efforts. This feeling of recompense spurs us on to do more. Good standards of behaviour are just as important as intellectual de velopment and this training comes in the class room, home and in the church. Mr. Hyde stated that it was the aim of this system to make the student feel that .there to a service for him to render in the community, that it is hot an easy road with shortcuts in it and he must overcome his own difficulties. Mr. Hyde was introduced by the president, Harold Uren and Carmen Finlay expressed the appreciation of all- “Y” secretary, James West, led the sing song assisted by Ross Big ham at the piano. Committee reports were also given by the chairmen of the various committees. PRESENTATION MADE T£ CAPSTICK FAMILY Fine quality all wool baby blankets. Shown inwhite with pink or blue borders.

While tire memory is fresh, it is easier to remember the peculiarities of each machine in the field and make a note of what is required to be done. It is also easier to make a list of what repair parts are -wanted, and it is a distinct advantage to order them early—that is, by early winter— be cause it gives the dealer a better ehance to obtain the parts and the farmer will have them on hand and ready for use before the rush season starts in the spring. All farm machinery, after being overhauled and made ready for win ter storage, should -be housed when ever possible. Much of farm equip ment; particularly in Westerd Can ada, finds its winter storage under trees or along fence lines, or even out in the field where it -was last used. Machinery left outside takes longer to start when it is most wanted, but, because all-metal equip ment, such as one-way disc, may be left outside with little deterioration, provided it has been well prepared for the winter and carefully covered, does not mean to say it would not have been better to have housed it properly. On the other hand, there is nothing more aggravating or so time-consuming than, say, a plough mouldboard that has been so badly rusted that it will not scour until it has been polished with emery or someother abrasive. In the matter of machines like binders, combines, and tractors it is not enough merely to run them un der cover. They should be cleaned asthoroughly as possible and all the bearings well lubricated to prevent rust or erosion. If the tractor is not to be used until the next spring, a small quantity of oil should be put into each cylinder through* the spark plug holes and the engine turned over by hand two or three time*. It i« a good plan to take the weight off the tires and cover all vertical exhaust pipes. All bright metal parts, such as binder knotters, combine knives and guards, oneway discs, blade* and plough mouldboards should be coated with chassis lubricant or transmission oilt or treated with one of the rust proofing Compounds which are avail able from oil companies. Under tests, such compounds hkve prevented rust from 10 to 12 month* under outdoor conditons, while few ordin ary grease* lasted over a month. Uipler less severe conditions, this compound may be diluted with gaso line or kerosene and sprayed on.

'New Haven, sir.” I said, reddening. Then I left. | Approximately two weeks later I returned armed with a birth certificate, transcript* of my academicefforts, and three high-powered let ters of reference that would haveso:d slavery to the North.

Thus wrote the vice-president of Bittersweet Condiments, and he waswell within himself. With this to back me I expected a measure of success. I was apply ing for the V-7 program which turned college graduates Into officers and gentlemen in ninety days A yeoman sat at the desk where I had previously found the enlistingofficer The place was empty. “It’s Tuesday,” said the yeoman."It certainty is.” That much 1 knew "Nobody here"—he gestured at the empty room. "Never anybodyhere on Tuesday " •Tve come to enlist in the Navy'sOfficer Training School right now.” The yeoman crossed his arms oni;.s chest, and rocked back and misplaced trigonometry was not going to come between us.“The Bureau says you have totake it in college. I hate to loseyou, my boy. but if you haven't hadtwo years of college math ...""Do you actually use it?” I asked,wondering how much time JohnPaul found for scientific algebra."No." he admitted wistfully.“That's the funny thing.” I never took any mathematics incollege, and consequently I never It was plain that the name ofDowd would not be added to Caesar'a rolls this day. “Brattleboro, Vermont!" I shout- "Fine," he said."Where are the authorities?" Iasked.“Go to the seventh floor of the oldPost Office Building." It soundedlike the ghostly advice you get ingraveyards at midnight, but I wasin a hurry to join the legions. Ihurried off.The Navy's room on the seventhfloor of the old Post Office Buildingwas occupied solely by another yeoman."It's Tuesday," he said."Where is everybody?" I asked."This bein’ Tuesday they movedto another office,” explained theyeoman.Tuesday seemed to stir the Wanderlust in city-bound seafaring mento the point of madness.“You can find ’em down on twen ty-eight Canal Street.” he said. I found nobody but another yeo man down on twenty-eight Canal Street. The Navy apparently sta tioned them about like buoys. "Nobody here. They ain't ar rived yet,” he said.This bein’ Tuesday I never ex pected them.Outside I explained the problemto the cab driver, who was tiring of the chase."They'resomewhere between hereand the seventh floor of the old PostOffice Building," I told him.He looked glumly away as if besuspected our next move was todrag the river.Two days later the enlisting officerturned up in the Merchandise Mart.The officer in charge looked throughmy papers. He studied the birthcertificate."Lester Dowd, eh?""Yes, sir,” I said, wondering ifthe question of legitimacy wouldarise.He poured over the records."Where is Yale University?" heasked, unable to resist the temptation."New Haven, sir," I said whenthe laughter had died."You're the boy we’re lockingfor," he continued earnestly. "Weneed officers. We need men likeDewey, men like Farragut, andJones. We’re counting on you boys.Wait a minute," he said, lookingcloser at my college record. "Dowd, have you had two yeaftof college math?” he faltered. ”1 took it at prep school, sir," Icountered truthfully. "But have you had two years ofcollege math?” he Insisted. "What sort of math is that, sir?" "It's just two years of collegemath," fie thundered .dumbly. "TheBureau requires it. Look here"—be pointed to a list of specifications—"Two years of college ipath for V-7 candidates." "But, sir, 1 had advanced mathematics in 'prep school.” I clung tomy point. A little thing like some disappointment. From the beginning my preference was for the Navy. a sentiment that cannot logically be explained. Perhaps it wasthe lure of ships. Perhaps it was avain conception that the Navy wasever so choosey regarding its per sonnel. There was a convictionamong us that it took a pretty good man to get into the Navy. ’’We get the cream," beamed Commander Whitman at dinner one night. He was stationed at theGreat Lakes Training Center. He knew Father in the last war andwas a frequent visitor at our house “To the cream,” I toasted theCommander’s statement.’’Be it ever so thin.” mutteredFather, who was an Army man.Beyond this may have lurked asubconscious desire to frustrate thehest-laid plans of the draft board This never amounted to a willfulevasion of the law. I could notconvince myself that tbe Army hadmy best interests at heart. TheNavy was different. They gave youyour choice. They did until thegimmick of college math appeared. At first I had an astronomicaldraft number. "You won't go until the Germans *get to Indianapolis." Mr. Green,the head of the board, advised ruefully from his office in Libertyville.There, with a pretty eye for sym-holism, he had set up headquarters.When the Japs started comingthrough the floor, he was forced torevise the estimate. And then I redoubled my efforts. More than everI wanted to serve with the Navy.The lure of ships can be a verypotent thing at times. Barred from the V-7, I wasnonetheless determined to be enlisted by sundown. The Coast Guardneeded men. "Why don’t you go and seethem?” urged the enlisting officer.•They’re on the seventh floor of theold Post Office Building." They actually were. It was blowing hard outside. Thewinter wind had pinched my eyesup protectively. I got just insidethe Coast Guard quarters when theexamining doctor crossed from oneroom to another. He was in hisshirtsleeves and taking large, rapid strides. Spying me in the doorway he pointed with his stethoscope and said loudly while in full flight: "You have a facial squint.” He disappeared into another 1 room. I moved a little slower after thisburst of old family kindness. Inone corner a huge man with a stomach like a barrel stood naked waiting for his examination. As I start- 1 ed to take off my clothes, the doctor Ireappeared."You with the facial squint, keepyour clothes on," he ordered.He came over to me.“We can’t use a man with asquint." he menaced.Lacking two years of collegemath, it was best to keep a sweet,even disposition."I never had squints in my life,”I said irritably.“You have now," said the doctor."It’s just cold and windy out As soon as I thaw out, it will be all"right."He laughed derisively. "There’s the sort of man we want”—he pointed at the BoulderDam in the comer. “I’m a college graduate," I said,trying to rouse his interest "Where <M you go?” be askedabsently.. "Yale University."He placed both hands on his hips. "Now. where is that?” he askedin a silky voice. His face opened and fell. "They moved it stone by stone,”I was still shouting in the ha ILFor a month I sulked like Achilles. It was a tantrum with limitations. however. I never claimedan influence with Mr. Green comparable to the Greek's eway over Agamemnon. It is not much of a sulk if you know that the local draft board can rout you out of your tent any day it chooses.I was not the only victim of petty discrimination. Jumbo Russel,who was built like a bronze andhad never known a sick day in hislife, was discarded. His nose wasalways stuffed. But you get usedto that. It takes a good deal morethan a sinus block to stop a manlike Jumbo. Still, no service wouldtouch him with a ten-foot pole. Tim-my Guile had an operation on hispyloric valve when he was eightmonths old. That put him out inspite of the fact that twenty-threeyears later he was a picture ofAmerican youth. On the other hand.Mr. and Mrs. Quinn announced theenlistment of their son Waiter, junior, in the paratroops. Nobody hadcounted on Walter for more than a couple of pints of plasma at themost. Here he was in the paratroops. To those who were turnedaway on the grounds of facialsquint, or -sinus block, it was adreadful blow. "I don't know," Jumbo told medazedly. "It’s taken a lot of windout of my sails.” “ In one strategic move Walter metamorphosed from worn ■<_ wonder while other established charac ters, such as Jumbo Rrssel and Barney Tree, who had a liui foot,fell off one to five points. On every side, one heard what a fine chapWalter was, what a wonderful fellow be always had been, and whata world of good the paratroopswould do for any minor failings hemight possibly have owned. Beforethe date of his induction, WalterQuinn, junior, was a green gem ofsin. I suspect that after the Powers have made another just peace,he will return the same despicabletoad he went away.

OBMnv . *O SH®V QUEEN ALEXANDRA SANATORIUM Something from WILL BRING VICTORY Give Generously Christmas Seal Committee - 382 Wellington St., London START CARE NOW OF WINTER HOUSE PLANTS One of the eecrets of success in keeping house plants in good condi tion during the winter is to start their care immediately the heat is turned on in the home in the fall. The reason is that one of the moatcomffion'eausea of failure during the winter is that tbe plants are kept in rooms that are much toq'warm for them. By the time Christmas has arrived, the plants may be wilted or otherwise in poor condition, particu larly if they have been placed peir aradiator. More' house plants have been killed by heat than by cold. The ideal temperature for, house plants is about 65 degrees* or.* better still, 60 to 65 degrees F., three degrees less than the recommended house temper ature both from the health point of view, and that of the war fuel-saving campaign. If one desires to have the plants in any of the living rooms, the best thing to do is to keep the rooms as cool as possible consistent with personal comfort. The various planta have different tolerances to sunlight. Ferns should be placed where there is art abundance of light but not in direct sunlight, while on the other hand, flowering plants as a rule require all the sun light they can get, especially in win ter time. Foliage plants are more tolerant to insufficient light, but in winter time they may be placed in direct sunlight. Care should be taken to prevent direct draught*, on -plants. At the same time, a dry atmosphere is to be avoided because it not only stunts the plants but helps the increase of cer tain insect pests, such as red spider and thrips. Moisture in the air around the plants may be increased by standing the 1)01* in shallow trays filled with pebbles, gravel, or moss, and keeping it moist.. Drainage in the pota is an important factor. This may best be arranged by using'soil in the pot that will allow Loth dlr'and water to pass through easily. A mix ture of two parts good garden loam soil, one part rotted manure, and one part sand will generally fulfil the soil requirements of potted plants. Fur ther drainage may be obtained by. placing pebbles, small stones or like material at the bottom of the pot, so as to drain off any excess water. Contributed by.

THE END IS IN SIGHT With unofficial intimations hav ing been heard for some time along Parliament Hill that the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan of Canada, United Kingdom, Aus tralia and New Zealand, may not be renewed after its expiration on March 31st next and that it was possible that many personnel of the Women's Division of the R.C.A.F. would be discharged in a compara tively short time in addition to the recent reductions in staff, these moves of curtailment are consid ered to be highly significant signs of the times in usually well-informed quarters in the nation’s capital The British Commonwealth Air Training Plan was started in Ottawa only a few months after the commencement of hostilities in 1939 and it was con tinued by agreement on July 1, 1942, for another almost three years period, subject to another renewal if necessary under the circum stances. At one time it was under stood in Ottawa that there were 14,000 women in the R.C.A.F. with about 5,000 in the "WRENS” and 15,000 in the “CWACS”. h ie fruV.

THOROUGH EXAMINATION The notice beforehand which has been given by the Federal Govern ment in regard to the coal situation in the coming winter should be taken . seriously by the man-in-the-street across Canada, judging by the latest reports along Parliament Hill con cerning the need for a thorough ex amination of the problem on coal in this country due to certain condi tions. In the last year there was a production of about 18,400,000 tons of coal in Canada, including 6,- 800,000 in Nova Scotia, 7,800,000 in Alberta, 1,300,000 in Saskatche wan, 2,100,000 in British Columbia and 411,000 in New Brunswick. Moreover, there have been many changes in coal conditions in this war and requirements have been so great at times that this country has hd to rely on huge shipments of coal from the United States. Indeed, it has been said backstage along Par liament Hill that these changes are the real reason why the Federal Government has had under careful consideration for a long time the thorough examination of the whole coal situation in this country. FRUITS OF VICTORY It has been reported ina Ottaw that Canadians may be receiving supplies of dates this winter though previously theSe were unobtainable in Canada on account of the war, with thia country having been'allo cated 4,000 tons of dates. Other dried fruits will- also be available in 'limited quantities including about 18,000 tons of raisins and currants from Australia.

While sub stantial improvement is evidenced in Canada’s health, in the last 20 year? and public interest has been greatly increased, it is pointed out that much remains to be done through improved.public health ser vices and educational programs so that needless deaths and preventable disease can be wiped out. The article is introduced by statis tic* showing that fewer Canadian mothers are dying in childbirth; that the number of infant deaths has been reduced by almost half; that recent measurements of school children show that chlidren seven to 13 years of age are one to two inches taller than they were 20 years ago. To dispel any complacency, how ever, Dr. J. J. Heagerty, director of public health services for the De partment of National Health and Welfare, is quoted as saying that the general death rate is still too high and deaths from certain diseases and conditions are excessive. Partic ularly did he refer to infant and maternal deaths and said that most of them definitely are preventable. He believes tuberculosis for in stance, need not exist in any civilized community, yet jn 1942 a total of 12,361 cases was reported. Lieut -Gen. Kenneth Stuart, cMel of staff at Canadian military headquarters, London, is resigning. females. Male children bom 10 years later, in 1940-42, had an ex pectancy of 62.95 years, and female children 66.9 years. It is indicated that while the in cidence of tuberculosis increased in war years, earlier diagnosis and treatment have lowered the death rate. In delving into the trend of statis tics, the article picks out some in teresting points related to marriages, births and deaths. The marriage rate is closely allied with prosperity levels and employment opportun ities. It reached a low ebb during the depression period and showed a marked increase in the early war years with marriages taking place at an earlier age. The 1930-32 average age of marriage for girls was 25.3 years; in 1940-42 it was 23.8. The peak of marriages was apparently reached in 1942. Since then the rate has declined and is now about what is considered nor mal. However, it will probably de cline further if the ;war is prolonged because of the absence of men. Nuptiality figures for 1930-32 indica ted that, of every 100 girls 15 years old, 82 would live to be married at least once. This was a low rate that reflected postponement of marriages during depression years. In con trast the 1940-42 figures show prob able marriage for 95% of girls 15 years old, which is abnormally high and not likely to continue for any length of time. Accidental deaths in 1941-42 were higher than the average of the pre vious five years, and while automo bile accidents were numerous in 1940-41, the 1942 death rat«* was below the average for 1936-40. Of course the gasoline and rubber short age was the reason. Now as to infant mortality, there has been a steady improvement be tween 1926 and 1942. Significant is the fact that two causes of infant deaths much affected by the state of health of the mother during preg nancy show the most favorable im provement even during the war years, This would indicate improve- menLs in nutrition and education in pre-natal care. Here’s another fact worthy of note. In the three years before the war the maternal mortality rate was reduced 25%, and in the first three years of the war a further 30% re duction was noted. This improvement kept on through 1943 despite an ipcreascd number of births among a highly mobile population, a severe strain on hospitals and medical facil ities. The use of sulpha drugs and improved nutrition of the mother are two basic reasons for this good trend, it is suggested. Recent gov ernment health campaigns are con sidered a* great aids. Statistics show that stillbirths have been on the decline since 1939. A contributing factor, states the article, is fewer large families and more families of one and two child ren. Conditions affecting maternal mortality also affect the stillbirth rate. While the long-term Canadian trend is toward smaller families, the article points out, most marriages are followed very soon by a first birth, and many by a later second birth. The birth rate closely follows fluctuations in the marriage rate at an interval of about one year. The rising trend of marriages arrested the downward trend? in the birth rate, but no marked ipcrea.se bccurr- ed until 1040. It continued to rise through 1943, but will probably de cline again after the decline in the marriage rate which began a year earlier. Studies show women majry- ing young have larger families than those marryfng at an older age, but considering the interruptions in the child-bearing of women .whose hus bands are overseas, the net effect of earlier war marriages will not be easily detected in the over-all statis tical picture. The conclusion reached is that, in general, the health of the Canadian people showed a marked improve ment during the 10 years preceding the war and that improvement has continued through the wax years. Progress has been greatest in mater nal mortality, some aspects of in fant mortality and mortality from pneumonia and influenza. Contribu tory factors are believed to be ad vances in medical methods and the improved nutrition of mothers dur ing pregnancy. However, there is no room for any slackening of health education ^nd public health programs if Canada is to continue to progress toward the mortality levels of the most advanced countries. The article declares the effects of war on civilian mortality are diffi cult to asseas'accurately. The mortal ity rate seamed to be stationary dur ing the worst depression years, be gan to‘improve In 1938. In 1941, a bad epidemic year, the death, rate rose, but dropped in 1942 to the lowest level ever recorded. Of-interest are tile figures on “life expectancy,” which ha£ improve^ greatly in Canada in the last 10 years. Figures show the mean length of life for children born in 1930-32 to be 60 years for males, 62.1 for Crumb Pudding Tomato »4 c. finely choppedceleryVi c. chopped green pepper Vi c. choppedonions2 tbsp.fatCook together i___ ____per and anion in th* fat. 8 to lbminutes, stirring frequently; blend in flour: *dd toma'-ow, c.-.eeae andsalt.
