#* Em Wer < Lo Women's Institutes A Real Boon (Owen Sound Sun-Tmes) The recent visit .n North Grey Dis- ¥ grict Women's Institutes of Mrs. Laura Rose Stephens, the first speaker id] #0 be sent out by the Ontario Depart ment of 'Agricultué, 0 the Women's - Jostitutez nearly 40 years ago, brings Su realization of how from a humble but: eai®est beginning, nearly twoi score years ago, the srganization has grown. Characterized " by eminent ario's greatest gift to the world, the 4 statesmen in the Old Country as On- ¢"®movement has extsnued to practically every civilized country in the world, until this year a great international convention is being held in the heart of Europe, : The success of the Women's Insti- tute, which was organized for 'and which continues to be practically con- "d "fined to rural women, may be sald to *¥ AE, hh pe due to the great spirit of common fnterest and common géod it has en- gendered. It Is primasily a medium of exchange, an opportunity for rural women to benefit by the experience of others, to share household hints and knowledge and to give women whose lives are often necessarily very yeptricted to their homes an oppor- . tunity to develop their abilities of leadership, promoting study and read- ing, getting up papers and speaking in public. Because of the education it opens up before the rural woman, the Women's Institute has been called the university of the farm woman. ' 'From this worthy task-of sisterhood, of sharing and helping, the Women's Institute spread its activities to the community and later through the 1 welght of the opinion they command as a provincial,.national and interna- tonal organization, to the world at large. The-community activities of the branches are legion. "Many have duilt community halls, where the resi dents of the community and particular- ly the young people can enjoy social pastimes. Practically all branches "take a keen interest in the rural school, lelpng the teacher whenever the need arises, providing first aid kits 'for the scholars and 'introducing 'wherever possible everything. for the physical well-being ot the children, 'medical inspection, hot lunches, etc. 3 xtending -a helping hand to homes Wd ramilies in times of sickness, fire, distress, etc., 1s always foremost in the minds and hearts-of-those- closest and miost influential in thé Women's Insti: tute. In countless lit!le Ways the in- **dividual branches bring sunshine and' eheer to those in need. = . 'A bright instance of the many little acts of neighborliness enacted by the Women's Institute without discrlmina- 'tion. of any sort as to class, religion, etc., was related by the recent speak- er, Mrs. Stephens, who told-about a ~+ = gmn--Manitoulin Island, which has a we . - » A ota Ab ~ J standing contract with a grocer to sénd --a little-box of good things to every person--man, woman or child-- who may be {ll in the community. . "In the very early days of the Wo- men's Institute movement the Govern- ment fecognized what'a boon had been ereated for the often lonely, hard- working rural woman, upon whose health, strength and welfare in such a very real measure rests much of the country's true prosperity. Through their co-operation, the Department of -. Agriculture -provides the branches * with a very fine series of short eourses, training in food values, in dressmaking, home nursing, . etc. Through the short courses many of the young girls become interested in Wo: men's Institute work and at the same time 'fit themselves for their task as the future mistresses of the farm home. . ° ---------- - aS Caveman Misunderstood According to Air Explorer Returning to the United - States : # @outh America, in order to measure ghe earth's magnetism for the Car- meio Institution of Washington, Earl Hanson is convinced that our fdeas of ancestral cavemen must be Bittle short of libelous.

For years Dr. Robert G. Green, University of Minnesota bacteriologist and national authority on tularemia, has been seeking the cause of the dis- eases which, in cycles of approximate- ly ten years, wipe out great numbers of small game and birds, He: has hunted it in Labrador, Northern On- tario and in many wilderness areas of Minnesota. His researches elsewhere lead him to believe he can find the answer in a land occupied by a few human beings, principally roaming Eskimox. " Dr. Green's effort is primary scien- tifie--to hunt and classify diseases. I} has, however, a practical objective-- the discovery-of a basis upon which wild life may be controlled and hunt- ing seasons adjusted so there will al- ways be a supply of game for the sportsman. If his discoveries in the Arctic bear out the theory he is for- rulating, he will have found the an- swer to a conservatipn problem that for years has bothered public officials and lovers of wild life. Accompanied by Mrs. Green, who {s also a bacteriologist, and W. J. Breckenridge, asistant curator of the university museum, Dr. Green will spend six or eight weeks collecting specimens of wild life--rabbits, squir- rels, beaver, muskrat, various species of grouse and whatever other animals may interest him. At various points along the trip the scientitis will set ap their wilderness laboratory, per- form autopsies and record findings. Specimens of parasites and tissues will be collected for further study. 'F_om the Pas, Northern Manitoba, they will travel along the Churchill Railroad about 200 miles and set up their laboratory, spending two weeks seeking wild life specimeas. From there they will go to Churchill, a port ¢n Hudson Bay, and spend two more weeks in a laboratory stucy. From Churchill, their objective will be Non- ala, a small Eskimo village at the mouth of the Egg River, far into the Arctic barrens. White Jesvly interested in the study of tular&hia, the little-known malady spread in the. preparation of rabbits for food and a disease to which he himself fell victim two years ago, Dr. Green wants to find the reason why every ten years large numbers of small animal life fall prey to plagues. His investigations have led to the discovery of two new diseases, One Answers to Last Week Puzzle ------ vary ob A P \ ca! men of Eurvpe. The othér.is an entirely new disease which he came upon 'recently--a fiiterable virus dis- ease that hag stricken hawks and owls. "It is expected that within the next two or three years we will have a large die-off of our small animals and birds," Dr. Green explained, "This die-off - affects particularly rabbits 'and grouse. It is continental in scope and appears to run in ten-year cycles or intervals. The last appearance of the die-off was in 1926 and we expect it to reoccur next year and the year following. wiih "There have been variou: theories concerning the cycles in which these animals die. One was that the rise and fall of animal population is con- trolled by sun-spots. I doubt there is any foundation for this theory in view of the fact that the animals die in areas that form a patchwork in any given district. The die in one area this year and in another next year, until a whole district has been deci- mated." She: Did you ever go a-<court- Ing? ~ He: Oh, yes! 8he! What did you say?
