The second hearing is on the same basis as the first except that the Government Veterans’ Bureau compile what is known as the sum­ mary of evidence. This is a synopsis of the military and medical records of the claimant during service plus any additional information that has been obtained by medical examin­ ation or evidence. If he is satisfied with the summary, he has six months in which to present the claim for second hearing. In these six months he may collect any aditional evi­ dence; obtain any fresh medical in­ formation; or other relevant material. It is during the second hearing that the Legion is able to do its most valuable work. If the case is turned over to a Legion representative, no effort is spared in collecting the nec­ essary evidence and presenting it to the Pension Commission, together with a written submission stressing all points in favour of the claimant. The only otyier alternative that the veteran has if his second hear­ ing meets with an adverse decision is to appear before an appeal board of the commission which will hear the appeal in his own district. How­ ever, the best way to prove a pen­ sion claim is always at the second hearing because of the ready access­ ibility of the Legion headquarters in Ottawa to the Pension Commission, cases can be discussed and other strong points brought out more readily. A claim, however, must be properly prepared and as complete as it is possible to make it before the second hearing and its submis­ sion to the commission. When a case goes -before an appeal board, the decision is absolutely final. However^ the Legion is hopeful that this procedure may be simpli­ fied for the veterans of this war and that a greater opportunity will be given to prove ’fair and legitimate claims. Representations have been made recently to this end.

If your lamp base is of porcelain, pot­ tery or stone, simply wipe it with a cloth wrung out of warm water and extra-soapy suds. Rinse with clear water. Use a soft brush, such as an old toothbrush to remove dirt from crevices. Metal bases, however, need special treatment. It’s risky to use metal polish, furniture polish or harsh cleaning methods on them— you’re likely to remove that smooth finish. Instead, dust .with a soft cloth and give lamp base an occas­ ional application of paste wax. Cry­ stal bases stay clear and bright if you wipe them with a cloth dipped in clear water to which a few drops of household ammonia have been added. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly. The lamp with a marble or onyx base should never be washed. Just rub it with a soft cloth dampened in raw linseed oiL Wipe off with a clean cloth, and rub on a thin coating of paste wax to restore gloss.

First, to keep from wearing down the car­ pet pile, use castor cups under the legs of furniture. Second, and this is a real carpet-saver, try padding under your carpet; a mothproofed hair pad or several layers of news­ paper does wonders in protection for your carpet.

If there is one thing 1 enjoy it’s going to the market on Saturday morning, where one can wander around and search out the choice offering* which the farmer has brought in from the country and arranged in colorful cluster*, where we can pick and choose whatever suits our fancy, and our pocketbook*. At present, the stalls are filled to overflowing with that old favourite, the cabbage family, which includes everything from the snowy white head of cauliflower, broccoli, sprouts, curly savoys, to the big, firm purple and white drum heads which supply the main ingredient for the kraut crock and the winter salad bowl. There’s always an abun­ dance of bright green parsley, dark red beets and big bunches of long Chinese cabbage, and bags of pota­ toes. * It is also interest/ng to see how many men are now going about with shopping list, cautiously investigat­ ing each purchase they are making for the homemaker. Then there fare the youngsters trailing their wagons with an air of independence and carrying the family shopping list to the market vendors. To show how much she appreciates this friendly shopping assistance, the homemaker might plan to make a' few special goodies ahead of the holiday. Cook­ ies are a universal favourite, so here are a few recipes along with other Christmas suggestions.

The meeting closed with the sing­ ing of the National Anthem. Maid—“What name, please?!' Pompous Individual (with wife)— “Thwaites.” Maid—“Oh, yes, just minute, I believe there's tuppence for you somewhere.” None of us are able to seeclearly the pattern of things to corns.Not one is able to nay that the after­math of thia war is going to be verydifferent from the aftermath of thatof a generation ago. Then the mindsof all people engaged in that con­flict were definitely tired; definitelyagainst war of any aort; definitelystored with hate of strife and blood­shed to the extent that they believedno war could again be provoked.That was the state of their feel­ings; that to some extent is the state of our feelings now. But did it prevent a recurrence then? Can it prevent a recurrence now? It cannot. There has to be something more. War hhs always been hated by those who suffered from it, but hatred alone has done nothing to prevent it There has to be a posi­ tive love of peace to offset the nega­ tive hate and that positive passion must be far stronger than the nega­ tive one. It must be so strong that it can force people the world over to act and prevent war. So much is being said about re­ habilitation, and there cannot be too much said if the saying brings in its train the action necessary. But to rehabilitate the men and women who have waged war fo us, isn’t enough in itself to prevent another confla­ gration. We have got to rehabilitate our minds; bring them back from a war weariness to a more normal alertness, so that they "funcion with a keen desire to do all possible to put the world in a position to enjoy peace. All grievances of what­ soever nature must be debated by those in authority; retailed in an understandable manner to the com­ mon people, so that they too can appreciate the difficulties and set their minds think of solutions, The World Court, or whatever the assemblage of the chosen of the nations is called, should set the partof the psychiatrist, ahoud analysethe problem* of nations, get at theroot causes of them, show them tothe world, and get world opinionoperating with them to remove thecauses of them, show them to theworld, and get world opinion oper­ating with them to remove thecause* It is useless to try and treateffects, for wars are the effects ofthe maladjustments of nations, andthere's no way of treating wars ex­cept by periodically fighting them.If we are anxious for this ad­justment, it must be an adjustmentof the problems of our present ene­mies m well m those of our allies,for if their problems remain un­ solve by a court composed of only members of the allied nations, the sores are going to fester and the poison will spread until it contam­ inates the greater body. No organ can remain unaffected; when poison generated in one part of the body circulates through the whole. And it is here that our thinking has to be wholly changed. We cannot think in terms of our country alone, or the Empire alone, or the allied nations alone. The whole world is now involved, is one vast body that is healthy only if all parts are healthy. Whether the nations now allied can see as far as this, whether they they have in them the spirit that can rise to the heights of unselfish­ ness needed, is the question. Indivi-, dually ws are selfish, but we do essthat selfishness curbed in eommun-itiaa. We do see the wlllingnass tohelp and the understanding thatonly as ths least among us arehappy, can we all be happy. Nations,as individuals, also are selfish, butthat selfishness too can be curbed,and the little brothers and the mal­adjusted brothers helped by the bigbrother nations. It is our only sal­vation . The selfishness In us mustbe uprooted. We are being givenanother chance to try it out. Perhapsit is our last chance, or surely itmust be seen that each "how warmakes our chances of recovery lessand less.

The populace was be­coming mcreas-ngly air-minded,and Al left a pretty good thingwhen the Navy evicted him. I dwelt for a minute on the ro­mance involved. Manning spannedthe period between the last war and this. After World War I he re­turned and eked out a living as abarnstormer, risking his neck toprove that aviation was really hereto stay. The field was a laboratoryin which the experiment developedslowly from year to year, and nowthat Al had passed along, myselfand countless others stood by tocarry on. It was a grand heritage. Swaying a little in this emotionalgust, I took time to mock the with­ ered sages of my school day* whoshook their learned pate* andpreached that adventure had diedin the glorious long ago. They weresorry about this, but told us franklythat our generation was doomed tofind the world in its senility andour only consolation was that Itw ould get worse and worse.I hadn't noticed much improve­ment myself until this moment.The sight of planes, lined in evennows, speeded the pulse. The sunhad risen higher and shone on therich green woods across the way.The roar of the planes was a pow­erful roar. There was a youthfulsurging in the bright morning, andthere was adventure enough for any:■ oung man who pulled goggles overhis eyes and dared climb into thesky. 1 introduced myself. I was gulping down satisfactionlike lotus when David Munk, astoop-shouldered, slow-speaking ladfrom the West Virginia hills,ambled up, his hands in his pockets.I had come to know him well. Hewas, from point of service, twoweeks my senior, and since sleepand a way of life that leaned radi­cally toward leisure were his chiefconcerns, he had been forced todiscover low ways of by-passingNaval routine. He gladly passedthese secrets on to a newcomerwhose philosophy was, in many re­spects, in harmony with hl* own."Dowd; O. K., son," he drawled."Ah see you have ole Glossup for aninstructor.""What sort of a fellow is he?” Iasked, still suffering from visionsof Drake and the new Elizabethanera that had sprung up underfoot."He’s a nawthun boy," he com­mented as if it had important bear­ing on a thesis of hi*, "and he’sfull of slime and vinegar.""He sounds pretty bad.” Evenadventurers fret now and again.“Ah had him at first," Munk elab­orated, “and that ole roach made me so mad ah told Captain Millerto give me a new instructah. Ahvolunteahd into this outfit, and ifah listened to much more of thatole boy ah wuzz goin’ to volunteahout"In spite of hi* mild southernways, Munk was regarded as some­thing of a terror. He had the re­freshing habit of reporting his su­periors to their superiors and washeld in an admiral’s awe by manyof the junior officers."He's over talkin’ to some en­sign"—Munk jerked his head in thedirection. "Ah'd go over and ac­quaint mahself," he advised, pre­paring to lie down."That’s a good idea," I startedoff."Say, ole son," Munk called afterme, “you don’t get seasick, do you?""I don't know. What’s that gotto do with it?""Just askin’," he murmured, clos­ing his eyes.I approached Mr. Glossup frombehind, circled to the side, noticedbis stiff bearing, his ensign's rank,and an expression of perpetual dis­comfort on his large, plain face.His clothes were neat, perhaps alittle too tight, and from his beingradiated the damp, forbidding chill of the “real Navy man." In mybest manner that had acquired evenby now only mild naval overtones,I introduced myself."Parden me, Mr. Glossup. Myname is'Dowd. I am yotft new Stu­dent"He looked away from bls chumand observed me coolly. ..Since hemade no effort to speak. I foundmyself stuck: to a gum-like mono­logue that went on and on like a repeating decimal."You’re my instructor. I hope Ican learn. That is. if I can’t learnfrom you, what hope is there?”He graciously relieved me of speech.“When I am speaking to another,you will not interrupt me. Is thatclear?" He laid equal stress oneach syllable.Something died inside me. Gonewas the informality that character­ized Drake's ship This was goingto be a rancid relationship, con­ducted along specific lines.“Oh, excuse me." I was takenaback.“Excuse me what?’’ he demand­ed in a frosty fashion.“Excuse me . . . excuse me." Iwas somewhat rattled, but thatseemed to cover it"Excuse me, sir ... sir .. .SIR!!!" He seemed to toe talkingfrom a great distance.“Excuse me, sir, sir, sir”—I showed how eager I was to learn.“I see, Dowd, that you have notbeen long in the military swim,”he observed, resorting to prettyimagery.Recalling the last six weeks Iwas compelled to admit I had onlyjust got my clothes off.Fine talk to a gallant about toexplore the new frontier. I lookedoutside to see if the morning stillretained its glow and was not dis­ appointed. My spirits rose a fewdegrees.“No, sir,” I answered. "Previous­ly we passed the summers in DarkHarbor.”A great man could rise above ahandicap like Mr. Glossup. Hecould make things difficult for mycorporeal being with his insistenceon official deportment, but my soulsoared, unfettered, beyond hisheavy grasp. It was still a glori­ous adventure, albeit with a mus­tard plaster attached.“Meet me in the plane,” he conumanded, adding, "and button yourshirt pocket.”I walked slowly to the parachuteloft, trying to release my soul likea carrier pigeon from a prisontower, but it was badly trained orunderfed, and it wouldn’t budge."Here, Mack,” said the seamanin charge, handing me a parachute,"bring it back if it don't work,”and so saying he collapsed withlaughter.His assistant, a finer man in everyrespect, reproached him..“Joe, ya said that fifteen timesawready and it wasn't no good thefirst. Now, will ya shut your bigface. Ya underminin' morale."Drake had known the same badi­nage on the wharves when hewalked among the enlisted men.It was the rough local color thatformed a background tor the lifein action.On the way down the line to theplane, a bloated, yellow-colored ma­chine known as the N3N, that didn'tlook as if it could fly if it had to,the friendly Glossup’* voice caughtup with me. "You don't wear theparachute in that fashion."It was banging against the backof my knee*. I could either set iton my head like a Bali maiden orhoist it up under an arm. I chosethe conservative coarse and all waspeace.“This is an indoctrination flight,” said Mr. Glossup. It was no adven­ture for him. "I’ll do all the fly­ing. You watch and try to catchthe feel of it.”I climbed into the back cockpitand fastened the safety belt. Iwas about to fly. Leonardo haddreamed of this. Daedalus andIcarus, and no melting wax toworry you. Mr. Glossup lookedcarefully under the wings, tuggedat the struts, examined the tailassembly, and then leered, “Ofcourse, you’d go up without seeingif it was all together."Apparently the wax problem hadnot yet been completely solved.He ran the motor up, checkedthe magnetos, and signaled for the* mechanics to pull away the chocks.We taxied evenly out to the run­way, hesitated a moment, and then sped down the gravel strip, cleareda red silo, and mounted into thesky. describing a gentie. graceful bank to the left. The wind pound­ed my face and the noise of the mo­tor temporarily obliterated thedisagreeable influence that wasGlossup. I was curiously alone.The plane climbed slowly to threethousand feet and leveled off. Be­low, the manchild scurried aboutsecurely fastened to his naturalhabitat He piled his crops intominute, evenly spaced piles, fur­rowed and plowed his tidy, well-defined squares of land, andseemed, from three thousand feet,to live a drab, uneventful life.As my exhilaration wore off andwe continued to fly smoothly aroundthe countryside, I crossed my armsand relaxed. This was more than the carefree boyish double-dare ofa Drake. It was more than theembodiment of a classical myth.It was healthy. Here I was wadingabout in another dimension enjoy­ing the invigorating sun-stare andlapping up unlimited quantities offresh, rarefied atmosphere. Therewere hordes of peoples less fortu­nate, chained to stuffy offices,claimed for a lifetime by factories,the best of them decaying in stiffwhite collars. I shuddered to thinkhow narrowly I escaped rotting inthe industrial clutch. Sooner orlater I should have had to boardthe eight o’clock for a cell on LaSalle Street. Nevermore, quoth thebirdman. A flyer’s life for me. Suddenly the plane bolted uprightand lurched evilly onto its side.The horizon stood on end and thendisappeared.. I. had a spasm offright such as you might expectif Dracula climbed into a hot bath.with you. The restive thoughts ofa moment ago scattered like scrapsof paper beside an onrushing train.Viciously the plane snapped rightside up again."That was a snap-roll to theright," called Mr. Glossup overthe gosport which made possible aone-way conversation while in flight.I hung tightly to the sides, sus­pecting that when there is a snap-roll to the right there too often isa snap-roll to the left. Immediatelythe plane heaved sickly and thesame maneuver was repeated onthe other side."Did you notice that you can doa snap-roll to either side?” heasked.I nodded in assertion. It wasas obscure as bear tracks in new-fallen snow. Long swells of swoon­ing sensation rippled in my stom­ach. Something I had for break­fast, nothing more. I opened mycollar button, ran my hand aroundmy neck, and waited tensely forthe bottom of the plane to fall outFor his next selection. Mr. Glos­sup pulled the throttle back, pulledthe nose up higher and higher and higher until the plane stalled, andthen fell spinning toward the moth­er planet. It was like falling downan elevator shaft in a top. Theground swirled around, revolvingabout a whirling cow. On eachturn I tried to follow the beast outof the field of vision. It looked hide­ous with branches growing out o2its side and a red-brick chimney between its ears. I closed my eyes.Everything seemed a reddish brownwith a long tail swinging from itfli^t G lossuP returned to level ’That was a normal spin,” hesaid, unfolding his lore.There was nothing normal aboutit. Perspiration ran down my lace.I lifted my goggles and rubbed myeyes. Inside me there was muchunsettled activity. I swallowedseveral times to restore order. AnImpotent rage welled up in me andfocused itself on Glossup. Whycouldn’t be fly around quietly andsmoothly and have a nice routineadventure. Instead of going berserkin the void? We had drifted closer towardWashington during all this horse­play. Smoke from the factoriesstretched lazily upward. Odd Ihave never thought of getting adefense job in some vital industry.The work is steady, even if the airis bad, but fresh air isn’t every­thing. Too much of it is bad foryou.

ST. Cl INGERSOLL PHONE 520 G R E Y H O U N D THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, DEC. 7, 1944 Pap?O T T A W AWEEK BY WEEK— By Dm > WiUw —DISINTEGRATION OF POLITICAL FORCES As mm of the important after- maths of the last political crisis in the capital it is pooaible to uncover evidence and more of a coming bad disintegration of old political forces reprinting the Province of Quebec. It is known in well-informed quarters akng Parliament Hill that ths latest utterances of two former Ministers, Hon. C. G. Power and Hon. P. J. A. Cardin, represented the real backbone of public opinion in Quebec. Since the pas&ing away of the Rt. Hon, Ernest Lapointe, these two men were by far measure the real Quebec strong men in the King Cabinet. With their departure and the sad fate at the polls suffered by several members in the downfall of the Godbout Government, leaving only 57 members from Quebec in the present Parliament, there has been ntoch widespread speculation because of the disintegration and breaking up of the old political forces into many small camps. There are now groups of various sorts, including followers of Hon. P. J. A. Cardin, four representatives of the Bloc Populaire under Maxime Raymonde. Independent Group of Frederic Dorion and J. S. Roy, Can­ adian Party of Liguori Lacombe, and others. Moreover, adding to the gen­ eral unprecedented political confus­ ion, it is said that the former Mayor of this country’s largest city. Cam- ilien Houde. may enter the Federal field. In 1939, he was interned by the Federal Govermneat because he had told the people of Canada. metro­ polis not to confoivn to National Registration requirement*. As a re­ sult, he was interned for four years. date fol the May.-ia!ity of Montreal and this U euM to be a move towards Parliament HilL AU tfceee Mg— point to real firework* m the Federal political field, psutku'jci-ly from the old Province • ■( Quebec NEW RECORD It is reported in Ottawa that the Minister of National Defence, Gen. McNaughton, has revealed that a recordbreaking number of enlist­ ments for active service was obtained in the previous week and that this was the biggest weekly figure since the historic D-Day on June 6. These enlistments reached a weekly total of I860, including 866 from Home Defence troops, 113 from reserve forces, and 881 from the public, with a satisfactory proportion of French- Canadians in these enlistments. BACKSTAGE BATTLE Outwardly, the action of the former Minister of National Defence, Col. Ralston, in voting for the Gov­ ernment’s motion of confidnce, seems to have given his support to the King Government. However, there is now a striking belief backstage along Pariament Hill that this may be only the start of a very bitter feud between the former Minister and Premier King, w>th these obser- vers still taking seriously some of the rather cutting words used by the former Minister and talking in whis­ pers that these may contain hints of what may be forthcoming in the near future. Indeed, they point out that for a relatively long time there had been odd stories or rumours along Parliament Hill about the ex­ istence of a vacancy in the Supreme Court of Canada, and of the possibil­ ity that Col. Ralston might go to the Bench, though, they recall, that at the time of these rumours or stories he was one of the most active, cajn able and promising members of the King Cabinet, even being considered by observers as a probable future Prime Minister. Therefore, some ob­ servers read between the lines of the latest words uttered by Col. Ralston as symptoms of deep-rooted bitterness between the Prime Min­ ister and the former Minister. VOLUNTARY DISCHARGE AND GRANTS In view of the many discharges which are taking place in the R.C.A.F., under the British Common­ wealth Air Training Plan, a report of great importance to these men and their families throughout Canada has been made in the capital by the Minister of Veterans’ Affairs, Hon. Ian A. Mackenzie. He has indicated that, though many of these men have no choice but to ask for their discharge with the Plan practically completely ended, yet they are en­ titled to all benefits under the re­ habilitation order and the war ser­ vice grants. have set yet made applicatien fortheir war service gratuities whichare payable under th- War SorrieeAct of 1»44 on or after Januarylet. 1945. It has tn-.-n reported inOttawa that only i 50,000 outI of arour i 150.000 have made theirsppiirations so far and thia hascaused some surjuisr along Parlia­ ment Hill. IMPORTANT REPORT Th.- Minister of Justice, Hon. Louis St. Laurent, has revealed that no per- ', were detained from August 11 to November 22, 1944, and that no persons had declined to follow the advice of any advisory commit­ tee, with this information being given by the Minister under the provisions of paragraph 3 of regula­ tion 21 of the Defence of Canada Regulations. MEN IN THE BACKGROUND It must be poited out that mili­ tary authorities have played a tre­ mendous role in the whole drama along Parliament Hill in helping with their expert advice on certain mat­ ters pertaining to the “hot" rein­ forcement issue, though their work behind the scenes have not been properly publicized at times. Indeed, this is now emphasized when calm analysis is made of the whole situa­ tion that brought about the political crisis in the Federal Cabinet and what stirring events led to it from the beginning about the early part of October. “We have been advised by the military authorities—as I hav said, this question of conscrip­ tion is a military question—that the step is necessary,” declared Premier Mackenzie King himself on one occasion. At another point, the head of the Administration also said: “I have said already that I am not a military man, that I have to reply for these matters upon the advice of my military advisers. That is the advice that I have received, that it is necessary at this time for the maintenance of the necessary rein­ forcements for Canada’s army over­ seas that we do resort to a measure of compulsion." PROVISION FOR VETERANS The Director of the Soldier Settle­ ment and Veterans' Land Act, Gor­ don Murchison, has indicated in Ottawa that settling on land is not new for returned soldiers, but to-day conditions and problems are new as well as many, stressing that it is the purpose of his department to solve these problems for these men. He also stated that .from his personal contact with these men overseas, he had learned that on their return home they will want above all oppor­ tunity and decent treatment. “Our rehabilitation programme calls for the care of the disabled men, educa- ation, security, jobs and homes,” he said. “These have already been pro­ vided to a great number of veterans and the most logical pool is the land where farms can be had aplenty. If given any kind of break of all, the returned soldier can make good and soon own his home.”—(Re­ production Prohibited.) STORY OF RESIGNATION There is a story in the nation’s capital that the recent resignation of Brig. James Mess,, as deputy adju­ tant-general in charge of recruiting was due to a disagreement with the Defence Minister, General McNaugh­ ton, over policy, though there was no official explanation at the time when this announcement of resigna­ tion was made in Ottawa. fcMBARASSING SITUATION Though several anti-conscription parades have taken place in various parts of this country, yet none attracted so much attention, amongst experienced observers along Parlia­ ment Hill as. the one which took place almost under the nose of the political leaders in the capital. About one hundred draftees or “zombies” gathered together in Ottawa, and carrying signs “Down with Conscrip­ tion”, marched down one of the cap­ ital’s main streets, Bank street, head­ ing for Parliament. However, angry active service soldiers, sailors, and some civilians, begun to object to the activities of these draftees and soon a small riot followed so that the par­ ade was broken up, through the timely arrival of city police, shore patrols of the navy and provost corps undoubtedly saved the- situati from proving quite embarrassing, is Mid now in the capital that tl riot is being carefully investigat by the authorities.

The V.D. problem is considered such a serious oqe and so vital to the future of our country that the Dominion and pro­ vincial governments have sought every available medium of publicity in an educational campaign by which it is hoped to impress on Canadians the great need for full co-operation, if headway is to be made against this most serious of health problems. This week we summarize in the space at our disposal some of the main factors stressed by the Depart­ ment of National Health and Wel­ fare, Ottawa, whose advertisements on V.D. most readers have noticed in the weekly newspapers. At the outset, one can realize how serious the problem is by an author- <itative estimate that more than 1 300,000 Canadians have syphilis; that ’ more than 200,000 of this number J are unaware of the infection because of the insidious nature of the dis- i ease which often shows no outward i sign for many years. The number < of new cases of V.D. exceeds most < reportable diseases, including polio- i myelitis, typhoid fever, diphtheria, < cancer and tuberculosis. Approxim­ ately 10% of insanity is due to sy­ philis, and about 15% of deaths from “heart disease” are caused through 1 the same infection. Not a pretty picture, is it? Unless’ the public is enlightened —and that-means’you and me, all of us—the immediate post-war period miht produce near-epidemic propor- “ tions, a condition which occurred after World War I—as a result of highly disrupted social and economic conditions in every country. During the first five years of the present war, more than 50,000 of the Can­ adian armed forces personnel in Canada contracted V.D. This, it is said, reflects the comparative civilian picture. Nothing pleasant about that, is there? Going into statistics again, 75% of all V.t). infections are asquired by the 15-to-30-year-old group, with the peak—and this should be marked carefully—in the pre-marriage age. The danger, of course, extends to the family group. Frequently, it is poin­ ted out, the 'bread-winner, mother and child are caught in the web of infection. The tragic infection of babies with syphilis is still a worri­ some problem in Canada. Loss of physical and mental capacities for productive work from this disease causes economic wastage and imposes a serious social and economic strain on families involved. That is appar­ ent The authorities point out that V.D. can be Held in check and brought to near-disappearance if known personal and community control measures are applied. They urge Dominion-wide adoption of what they call the “four- sector front” again V.D., based on a unified application of four major community forces—health, welfare, legal and moral—to the problem, but in this it is completely necessary that every citizen link himself with one or more of these sector^. 1. —Health sector: Is tad by health departments, physicians, nurses, etc. This includes health education and an ending to the conspiracy of silence on V.D.; medical care; pre-natal blood testing; pre-marital blood test­ ing; getting pd of “quackery” and seeing that cases get a reliable phy­ sician’s care; contact investigation. This last means that careful search must be made for all who have been contacts to knorwn V.D. By bringing such people under medical care, the network of V.D. is reduced. 2. —Welfare sector: The struggle of the community .against V.D. re­ solves itself in many instances to the solution of socio-economic ■ problems The fight against VJ>._ is the fight against squalor, over-crowding, neg­ lect and insecurity. Social security would doom VJ), 8.—Legal sector: Contribution of the courts, legal profession and police agencies. In /this connection Lieutenant-Colonel D. H. Williams of the Department <xf National Health and Welfare emphasizes: "Enforce­ ment of laws against illegally-oper­ ating, disease-dispensing commercfal- ized prostitution, suspension or can­ DAINTY SCA $2.29 Ski-Mitts Gloves, Linens - Spreads W. W. WILFORD INGERSOLL relation of licences of certain hotels, beer parlors, dance halls, taxicab companies which facilitate the spread of V.D." 4.—Moral sector: This is the re­ sponsibility mainly of home, church and school. "The moral sector which can definitely reduce V.D. depends on the moral fibre of the nation and individual character being strength­ ened and the sanctity of marriage upheld. This can be done if the moral wisdom of the ages is applied in the practical daily issues of personal, community and national life,” health authorities point out. That, then, is the situation facing the nation. About a year and a half ago the federal government estab- ished a division of V.D. control to mobilize and co-ordinate national re­ source against this social scourge andw to assist provincial health de­ partments by direct grants, materials, services, etc. Most people are already cognizant of the program which has been launched, and it is, of course, im­ portant that there be no slackening of the effort by a' thorough applica- tion of the "four sectors against V.D.”; but there will be little result ■ of consequence if citizens all over. Canada . terest. I One of the important things stressed ig the necessity of the en- s lightment of youth, through high . schools and youth groups, on the . subject of V;D. and its contrpl. i Wholesome discussions, it is j cated, will contribute much i immunity wwpensitoilitia*.>.ach community, no matter whatBist, should be counted on to elim­inate unwholesome conditions whichfacilitate the spread of V.D,, and inthis the provision of attractive,wholesome recreational opportuni­ties is vital. Teen age centres, forinstance, like those being increas­ingly launched everywhere, woulddefinitely belong to the “moral sec­tor" of the four fighting weapons.Of importance, too, is substitutionumane, therapeutically valuabled treatment and rehabilitationcentres for "jail treatment" of manyunfortunate girls and women.A more effective action against prostitution is suggested by discon­ tinuing the practice of fining prosti­ tutes, which literally permits a com­ munity to profit J>y an unsavory ex­ ploitation of young women and, in the absence of practical rehabilitation measures, forces her to resume oper­ ations' to pay for the "licensing" fines; also mandatory jail sentences for third party facilitators, includ­ ing those who rent premises for that purpose. These are all anti-social conditions which a wide-awake com­ munity can do something about. It is therefore the responsibility of all citizens, in all communities, to have an awareness of the seriousness of the situation and what government agencies are trying to do in the cur­ rent V.D. control campaign. The Do­ minion-wide campaign can only be as successful as the co-operation that is given it by the individuals in ham­ let, village, towns and cities.

By mid-November, most of the lo­ cal sea-birds have migrated south, but the late visitor who braves the cold salt spray will find a few young gannets on the icy ledges, some still wearing the down of babyhood.

Chopped fresh fish, canned fish, freshly ground meat, and cereals, such as corn meal or bran, are recommended as baits. In preparing the fish or meal baits, mix one and one-half ounces of pow­ dered red squill with enough water to make a thin paste without lumps and add it to one pound of fish*or meat and mix thoroughly. In mak­ ing a cereal bait, mix one and one- half- ounces of dry red squill with one pound of cereal and then add one pint of sweet milk or wmter, stirring thoroughly to a mushy consistency. Second in value only to red squill, is barium carbonate. Although less poisonous than-arsenic, it should be handled .with care as it is fatal to chickens, dogs, cats and larger ani* mals if eaten in sufficient quantity. It is inexpensive, odourless and tasteless. Baits may be prepared by mixing one part of the poison to five parts of food, such as meal or flour, adding sufficient water to form a dough. Arsenic is used in many rat pois­ ons. It is more deadly than barium carbonate. A good 'bait is prepared by mixing thoroughy one tablespoon- f<Uof finely powdered white arsenic with-one pound of oatmeal and one pound of coarse brown sugar. An­ other formula is arsenic, two ounces, canned salmon, one pound, cornmeal, one pound. Another method reported successful is to dissolve one-quarter of an ounce of white arsenic in five ounces of hot glycerine , and to spread this solution thinly on slices of bread. When preparing and dis­ tributing these baits, every precau­ tion must be taken to avoid exposing them where they may cause acciden­ tal poisoning to human beings, pets, or live stock. Phosphorus is a common ingredient in rut poisons, but it is too dangerous to use in home-made poisons owing to its inflammability. Strychnine, a virulent- poison and .widely used against rats, has ben found unsatis­ factory in home-made poisons. Thal­ lium. is reported to be very effective but is too dangerous to be recom­ mended for home-anode mixtures.
