REPRESENTATIVES IN US Powers and Stone, lnc, New York and Chicago, EME a WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 11, 1928 ONTARIO SENATORS' NAMED The names of the three new members of . the Canadian Senate from Ontario indicate + that reform of the Red Chamber will be an issue for the next session of the Federal Par- liament. The inference is plain as regards J. H, Spence of Toronto and Gustave Lacasse of Tecumseh, but with the naming of E. S, Little of London to the Senate that infer- ence becomes a practical statement of policy. Senator Little is too young, too largely en- gaged with his many business interests, and "possesses too keen a sense of humour to re- . . gard appointment to the Home for the Poli. ~ tically Indigents as much of an honour, His | acceptance of the post indicates that he sees a chance for service and probably for a fight, _+ For with all his humour, Senator Little is a man of strong convictions which he does not hesitate to express. He was a member of his family's Church until the latter part of the war when his pastor grew particularly eloquent one Sabbath evening on the question of conscription. The future senator, who had been rejected for service in the Canadian Corps, is said to have walked out quietly but emphatically. He has since that time been a communicant of the Church of England in Canada, Twice mayor of his native city as his father was before him, he was unable to win the riding for the Liberal Party in 1926 though those who voted against him were aware that Canada's probable next Minister of Finance was being defeated thereby. His wide business interests include bank- ing, insurance, manufacturing, and whole. sale drygoods imports, His public service is largely concerned with the University of Western Ontario and the Western Fair, the growth of both being very largely due to his interest in them and effort in their behalf, Senator Little and the late Sir Adam Beck were warm friends. Their common interest 'was horses, however, and not hydro. His stock farm a few miles from London is both a hobby and a financial success, A warm personal friendship subsists between the new senator from London and Premier King. His appointment, however, is not to be taken as a reward either of service or friendship but as a call to arms. The Senate will be in the headlines before many more weeks, .

But this convenient position of the university build- ings was not overlooked by the undergrad- uates who planned to rise betimes on the fa- tal day so that they could have an unob- structed even if distant view of the execu- tion. However, some glad little tattle-tale hot footed to the dean or regent, whatever they call them in Manitoba, and there was an im- mediate call to arms, Instead of behaving like adults and notifying the authorities to gee to it that there dismal show was carried out in actual privacy as the law re. quires, the proctor or chancellor, whatever he may be called, turned to his trusty port- able and the following ukase saw the light of day, namely: Any student found viewing the execution from the university buildings' upper windows will be expelled, The trouble with some people and some- times peculiarly so with those having to do with immature minds is that they imagine their little added percentage of experience, and conventionality makes them gods, They throw "Thou shalt nots" around, if they can get away with it, with all the ardor of a bull-frog chanting his spring song in early May, Hence the perennial "rebellion of youth" so-called, and out of it comes a miserable lot of heartache and headache which could be entirely eliminated if people only laughed with their hearts as well as their lips. Of course the Manitoba undergrads shouldn't be viewing a hanging as if it were a show staged for their special benefit. But to threaten expulsion for taking advantage of a unique opportunity to see one is to put a penalty on ingenuity and to rouse human nature to its worst through the challenge of someone's pretending to be holier than somebody else. Robert Burns paid 'his respects to the Pharisee in language that sizzles to this day. But he was not the first, and he was not the greatest to voice humanity's honest scorn of a man who can boast to God that "he is not as this publican," Bit of Verse JUST A BABY Just a baby, nothing more, Millions have been born before But this baby strangely seems + To have come with golden dreams, And a miracle is wrought-- He has changed our every thought, Just a baby, nothing more, compliment by The Telegram get a rise. SAFETY FIRST (Halifax Herald) It things keep on at their pres- ent rate, the Church and the Home will come into their own; they will be about the only safe place on Sunday.' HIS SPECIAL TRAINING (Boston Transcript) Mr. Lloyd George says that as a journalist he earns from $100, 000 to $200,000 a year. Ambitl- Qus young reporters should re- member, however, that few jour nalists are able to serve an ap- prenticeship as prime minister, A OIVIO NEED (Chatham News) What this and all other Ontario cities stand in need of is large and representative fields of cap- able men standing for election to all governing bodies. The matter of being selected to represent the ratepayers on any municipal board provides a distinct honor as well as a duty, to all men, of ability and patriotisny, ! APPLES----APPLES (Brantford Expositor) The people of Ontario must have been surprised at the contents of a news item which announced that no fewer than 175,000 box- es of British Columbia apples were shipped to this Province in one week. It is impossible not to admire the enterprise of the Brit- ish Columbia fruit growers and exporters, but it does seem tor had that Ontario, which has haé& he reputation of producing the finest apples in the world, cannot supply this market, CALLS THEM CRANKS (St. Catharines Standara) The Standard reproduced a ple- ture of a distinguished Canadian physician, who has been living in England for a number of years who was honored by a Knighthood from the King. That honor is the recognition without a doubt of worthy service to humanity, and is doubtless prized more than great riches. We have a Dr. Banting in Canada who might be similarly honored, but our cranks won't have it that way, ONE SCREAM $1,000 (Brantford Expositor) The reward in connection with the Hamilton robbery pald by the Canadian Bankers' Association, it is announced, will amount to $5, 000, No part, however, of this reward will be paid until the con- vietion of the bandits has been secured. In this case, though, there is not much doubt of their escape. It will be interesting to see how much is paid for a young girl's scream, and the cracks of the hammer and the shovel. ANTI-HEADLIGHT SPECTACLES (Popular Science Monthly) Soon you may be able to drive at night undisturbed by the glare of oncoming headlights. A new kind of "specs" made especially to pro- tect motorists eyes, from blazing lights, bas been invented by Dr, Carl G. Bostrom chief medical of- ficer of the Swedish navy, The spectacles are a clever combina- tion of a German type of glass, greenish-yellow-gray in color, that shades into clear glass at the bot- tom of the lenses. The upper part shields the eyes from irritation; the lower permits unobstructed vi- sion on: the road for driving. YANKS STAY DRY (Christian Herald) The Assiciated Press carried the anpouncement recently that 85,- 000 citizens of the United States crossed into Ontario over the De- troit route during a recent brief period. The Essex County Auto- mobile Club states that only 5 per cent of the visitors asked for drink permits. No American was arrest- ed for driving while drunk. Re- porters who swarmed into Wind- sor, which fs directly across from Detroit, and who anticipated lurid tales of the "gemersl American debauch," went back to their city editors without the stories, been found responsible for mo- tor-yehicle accidents would obs re- quired to display some K of special marker on their cars. If, TE}. 0 Sg ¥ b : : HIG HH 7 | By lames W Barton, M.D. Act Registered in Accordance with the BRAIN IN G WITH DIGESTION Perhaps you have felt the move- ments of your stomach aa fit churned up the food so as to mix it with the digestive juice of the stomach. When a food gets in- to the stomach the churning movements begin, but both ends of the stomach, the one opening upward to mouth, and the other opening downwards to small in- testine, both close so that food cannot go upwards or downwards out of the stomach. The churning goes on for a while, and then the end of the stomach opening downward into intestine, gradually opens up and lets some food go into small in- testine. After permitting a cer- tain amount to pass, it closes again and this food that has pass- ed into small intestine then gets mixed with the: digestive juices from the pancreas and liver. That is the pancreatic juice and the bile respectively. However, after this food is nicely mixed with these two juices, the end of stomach opens again, and some of 'this food ac- tually returns to stomach to "reg- ulate he acidiy ofo the contents of the stomach." What does this mean? That Nature regulates the out- put from the stomach into intes- tine, and keeps a guiding hand on the process, so that food will get a thorough mixing with the three digestive juices of the stomach, liver and pancreas, Now how does this concern you seeing that this process 1s not dn- der the control of the will? Because it is possible for you to interefre with this regulating action in two ways at least, First, by a too active use of the brain immediately after meals.

Her Hubby: "By whomi" At a certain French university the students, who had been studying Shakespeare in their native tongue, were requested by an examiner to translate into English the opening lines of Hamlet's soliloquy: "To be or not to be." The following was the result. The first Frenchman declaimed, "To was or not to am." The second rendered it, "To were or is to not;" while the third gave a still more liberal read- ing, "To should or not to will." The Guest---What a pretty name your maid has!

The husiness of the syndicate was said to be smuggling in "choice vin. tages" with cancelled customs stamps. The New York membér review ed results of a personal investiga- tion made during the Christmas holidays in New York City, and said that he felt it unsafe to de- liver evidence at his disposal to prohibition authorities there be- cause he 'had ascertained that contracts had been established with the prohibition burean." "I conferred with the Collector of Customs and the Deputy Com- lector and. found them most anxi- ous and willing to go into the mat. ter with a well worked out plan of running down.the heads of this syndicate," he continued, mit me to tell you that the origina) | argument set out by some of the | customs officials that it is impos. sible for a custom stamp to be used | twice, as it would show double | cancellation, was promptly met by | my exhibiting customs stamps bearing double cancellations.'
