Here is a bracing, reassuring state-| ( ment that tells its own story, : "There are no clocks in Canada.

His clamour makes him a en to himself and the authoritiesidnd tends, moreover, to create am entirely wrong impression on the part-of the Canadian regarding British migrants as a whole and to lead the more gullible sections of the British public into the belief that Bri- tishers are not wanted fun Canada.

Thera are thous- ands of British boys in various parts of Canada who are climbing cheerily through silent years of thrift and ex- perience to the achievement of inde- pendence; there are families scatter. ed through the Provinces who, having' come out with big hearts and strong hands and worked for years, are now running farms of their own and win- ing to a position they would never bave attained ineBritaim, ; "There is room for more of this type, and the path has 'been made easy for the Britisher--far, far easier than for the foreigner. Thé question is indeed being asked in well-disposed circles, whether or not these facilities have in the.past besn too easily avail- able. What a man gets for nothing he is incltded to deal with eritically. One who is really desirous of set: tling and making good in Canadas will surely, it is contended, pay for the privilege and value it all the more. These, however, dra matters of high policy; but it is noteworthy that only in very few cases in recent years has a man who has paid his own way failed, while much of the difficulty and misunderstanding which has from time to time arisen in the past is traceable to the shouting of the man who has not paid a penny. "It is undeniable, of course, that the fault for failures Mes sometimes with circumstances 'over which the migrant has no control, Many a good man has crumpled before an undeserved buffet.

Conditions make it necessary for the mother to keep them confined to the house, whose rooms may be overheated or badly ventilated. The little ones catch cold and their whole system becomes racked. To guard against this a box of Baby's Own Tablets should be kept in the home and an occasional dose given the baby to keep him fit, or if a cold suddenly grips him to restore him to health again aud keep him in good condition till the brighter, warm- er days come along again. Baby's Own Tablets are just what the mother needs for her little ones. They are a mild but thorough laxative which regulate the bowels, sweeten the stomach; break up cejds and sim- ple fevers; banish constipation and indigestion aml make the cutting of Vaccination Has Saved Millions Time and Again, Smallpox Has Slain Scoffers But Not the Vaccinated This is the seventeenth of a series of weekly health articles sponsored by the Canadian Social Hygiene Coun- cil, People who oppose compulsory vac- cination use as one of their main ar guments against this protective mea- sure that it interferes with personal liberty, This is rather au empty cry, because the liberty of those who do not want to get smallpox is just as much entitled to consideration as the liberty of those who do not want to be vaccinated. It should never be for- gotten that smallpox must pass from ong person to another. So the person that is willing to take the risk of get- ting this disease is taking more than a chance with his own health--he is taking a chance with the health of those with whom he may come in con- teeth easy.

In 1883, a pullman porter, who had } caught smallpox, landed in Montreal. Because of his dusky skin it was some days before the disease was detected. {The authorities estimated that before he was taken in hand by the medical men of the city he had infected from 15,000 to 20,000 people and had killed about 3,000 of them. There are hundreds of similar cases which might be cited, where to quote the judgment of the United States supreme court, "the liberty of the in- dividual is not in the inlerests of the welfare of the masses, and therefore the liberty of the individual must yield." Another case individual causing an enormour loss of life was 5 hen Mexico lost 3,500 of its citizens (In an epidemic, to which we have re- | terrea in a previous discussion on smallpox. A Spaniard who visited Mexico while suffering from the dis- ease is blamed for starting the scourge on its devastating way, Those parts of the world which have suffered greatest have learned that vaccination 1s the best against smallpox. In Québec Pro- vince, where the pullman porter taught them a terrible lesson, there is wholesale vaccination and the municl- pality of Gatineau was recently fined for«mot passing a compulsory vaccina- tion law, after being ordéred to do eo by the provincial health department, fn thé United States, where it Is said that one-fifth of the cases of smallpox in the world existed during 1925, the supreme court has found that any state has the right to en- force vaccination in case of an epi- demic, In Europe, where sixty million peo- ple died of smallpox during the seven; teenth century, most of the nations have compulsory vaccination laws, So It is with the Philipines, where 10,000 people died every year of small- pox at one time, tion is now vaccinated law was pg from smallpox in seven years. Sip Gilbert Blanes, who was physi- cian to the King during the eighteenth century, made a memorable address to the British House of Commons, in which he said that "it was difficult to find in the United Kingdom, an adult person who had hot had the smallpox." It was during this period in the Em- pire's history that it was a distinguish- ing characteristic if they could say, in a circular describing a criminal, "He is un-pock marked." The experience of the military auth. oritles show, perhaps as clearly as it could be shown, what a great change has come over the world since the medical men have had the vaccina- tion with which to combat. the ter- rible scourge of smallpox. Here were men living under the mos deplorable conditions, thelr vitaity at times re- duced to an absolute minimum, the facllities Io their protection the very Xo, one. would have been abi a rund the disuse among hun- #0 close were thelr living Fy Yet when we look at of a single ot vacolpation, there were only four cages of smallpox in the French Army, and man died of the disease. | preventive Owl Laffs ¥ § Surely it would have been u terrible! * situation Nad the army been too squeamish about the matter of liberty, and not taken the precau- tions which they did take te protect thelr men from the disease. doubtful which would have taken the most lives, the German army or the "germ army," the latter as represent. ed by smallpox. The city of Glasgow, Scotland, had an experience with vacelnation 'that was also definite proof of its value. In the year 1901 to 1902 the city had pre pared a great exposition at heavy ex-. pense, and just as the exposition was about to open, an epidemic of small' pox struck the city. The authorities decided that if they did not act guick- ly the exposition would be ruined, a financial failure. So they started out on a great vaccination and revaccina- tion crusade. The entire medical pro- tessfon 'of the city joined fn the work. Ot the 675,000 people who had not}. been vaccinated, the medical men with- in the next fifteen months vaccinated 404,000 people, leaving only 271,000 people who refused to be vaccinated. The results were remarkable. Not one case developed among those people who were vaccinated. Among those not so protected, there occurred 1853 cases, There is a feeltug among doctors that if they could only have people who oppose vaccination see the won-| derful results that are brought about by its application, there would be very little opposition. In the Phililpige Islands, for in- stance, over 10,000 vaccinations have been made. Not owe life or limb lost through vaccination. Before it was done, 40,000 people dled every year from smallpox. An occasional death occurs now, but it is always found to be some person in the remote regions who cannot be properly vaccinated be- cause there is no skilled person near enough, and properly equipped to per- form a satisfactory vaccination, When you find your doctor advises vaccination you may rest assured that he and other members of his pro- fession have investigated thoroughly betore giving it their support.
