"Buying Canadlian" Always Important Quebec Chronicle.-Telegraph, in a recent editorial suggests one practical way ta reduce expendi- tures on unemployment relief. "To reach this point work must be pravided. Employment how- ever, is largeiy governed by con- sumer demand. As sales decline, sa daes employment . .. That sup- ports the point established by the "produced in Canada" mavement, ta wit, that the more Canadian merchandise bought by our awn people, whether it be from indus- try, the farm or aur awn waters, the more employment wili be av- ailable, and conjaintiy, the less money will be required for unem- playment... "Of course, the remedy i this particular direction lies in the hands ai aur people. If they in- sist an "buying Canadian" where price and quality are at least equal, on every occasion, we couid soon hope for same increase in the number ai Canadians who would be gainfuiiy empioyed"- Begin Campaign To Rehabilitate Polio Victims The Canadian Fou ndatian for Poiiomyelitis has begun its cru- sade ta rehabilitate polio victims with funds placed at its disposai by the Canadian public through subscription to the Canadian March ai Dinies, Horace Brown, Founder and Executive Director ai the Foundatian announced re- cently.

Futcher, Ontario F.W.I. Presi- dent and Mrs. Sayre, President ai A.C.W.. a few ai the highiights foiiow: We must learn ta look aver aur world uine fences. Canada's food producîng acreage per persan is much higher than many worid àreas. We have a part ta play in conserving the acres we have. We must learn ta think and hear and we must be willing ta be taught. Women ai the world may have the greatest influence in world gaodwill and understanding which is the greatest factor in promat- ing peace. Mrs. Milîs reminded the mem- bers ai the apportunîty for a pleasurable, profitable and econ- omical holiday ta be had at the O.A.C. in Rural Women's Week in June for ane day or more. The President ai the Canadian Association of Cansumers stated the rural women are nat co-ap- erating as are urban wamen in getting better value for their maney and in suppiying informa- tion ta the C.A.C. framn the farm front.

Some Allergies Said Pre-Natal Many infants are sensitive to certain foods they have neyer eat- en because they had been so sen- sitizeci before birth, states Dr. H. E. Edwards in an article "Food Allergy" in the "Memo to Moth- ers" section of the Health League of Canada's magazine HEALTI{, Dr. Edwards is with the Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, and the Depai tment of Pediatrics, Uni- versity of Toronto. "This rnay occur when a preg- nant mother gets a food craving, and over-indulges", writes Dr. Ed-1 wards. 'Some of thîs food gets into her Wood Stream and through to the baby's blood Stream and may sensitize receptive celîs in its body. "An example of this. is the find- ing of a baby who is sensitive toi chocolate and its mother who ad- mits the over-indulgence of choc- olate during the latter months of pregnancy, either ta satisfy a cra- ving or ta disguise the taste af the milk she drinks". with Mrs. C. H. Snowden at the piano, Mrs. Munday read the health. bulletin an diseases af the arteries and on rheumatism and arthritis. Though much research remains ta be done an these afflic- tions it is generally recognized that poor nutrition, tension and strain are conducive to damage ta arteries, nerves and muscles.' Mns.
