SATURDAY, MARCH 23, 1929 TEACHING SAFETY The visit to Oshawa a few days ago: of a rep- resentative of the Ontario Safety League, and the lectures which he gave fo the children of the public. schools on' the first essentials of safety, were worth while features in public education. Although not on the regular curriculum of the schools, the teaching of safety is of vast import- afce to the young folks who are growing up into a world which seems, year by year, to be acquir- ing a greater amount of carelessness: for the sanctity. of human life. ' The motto which was put forward by Mr. La- trobe, . the Safety League represenattive, was an easy one to remember, and an easy one to practice for those who have the will to do so. "Always be Careful" might well be studied by adults as. well as by children, although the acquiring of habits of safety might probably be much easier for a child, in the plastic stage of life, than for a person who has reached maturity, and whose habits have become somewhat fixed, . The "A.B.C." of safety, however, is well worth remembering, for, were it fully observed, there would be a great deal fewer accidents to be re- corde, and human life would be valued at fis true worth, instead of being looked on as somé- thing which does not enter into considerations of conduct at all.

RENRUT - Bits of Humor - A REMEDY Doctor--Your wife needs outdoor By James W. Barton, M.D. WHY MAN IS CONSTIPATED As you know that body of yours is kept at a certain weight and in nor- mal condition by means of the food and drink taken into the mouth, and the oxygen from the air which is taken into the lungs. Roughly about 6 pounds of food and water is taken into the mouth, and about 1% pounds of oxygen goes into the lungs in 24 hours. . This food and oxygen keep all the tissues built up, thus maintaining the weight of the body, supply all the {dices for digestion, pi 3 give the the materials to carry around to all parts of the body. The cells all over the body use these materials supplied by the Pied and give out to the blood as it passes through, the wastes that have resulted from their work. Now these wastes must get out of the body or trouble comes, because these wastes are poisons, \ The blood carries these wastes to the four places where they can be thrown out of the body, the skin, the kidneys, the lungs, and the large in- testine, and they are thrown out as erspiration, expired air, urine and aeces. As you know the perspiration is thrown out without your knowledge, and likewise the carbon dioxide from the lungs. The urine passes from kidneys to bladder and is passed out with your knowledge for if retained it causes pain and discomfort. You must get rid of it at least two or three times in 24 hours. nfortunately however, because man has changed his habits of life, it is possible for him to run the wastes in the intestine for days, sometimes weeks, because there may be no pain or acute discomfort arise. Why? Because man doesn't eat the kind of food that Nature intended him to eat, If he did eat this kind of food, the waste from the intestine would move along and out of the body just as do the other wastes. Man would have to remove it just as he does the urine. And as you know the right kinds of food are fruits, vegetables, whole wheat bread, butter, coarse cereals, onions, spinach, figs, raisins, prunes, and so forth. These foods have a substance like straw and this rough straw like substance very slightly ir- ritates the walls of the intestine and makes them move. --- "Tickling" the. body anywhere makes the muscles want to move. The point then is that Nature ex- pected us to eat some of this food daily, and if we do the wastes should move out from the intestine two or three times a day.

Daily Lenten Devotion Prepared by Bev Clarence Wilson DD, Rr Commission reply which he made to the request of the hotels men that he make it illegal to have liquor used in the rooms of a hotel. Under the Liquor Control Act, any person having a room in a hotel can take liquor to it and consume it there, and hotelkeepers have been finding that the habit of doing this is expensive to them, as much damage is done to their premises by Hquor parties. This, of course, is the logical outcome of the liquor trafic, since liquor, consumed at any time or in any place is always liable to cause trouble. The most sensible solution, of course, would be to ban liquor as a beverage altogether, and enforce properly the legislation required to put this into effect. {Under the law as it stands today, however, Pre mier Ferguson's reply was a commendable one. He pointed out that if the hotelmen were sincere, the remedy ldy in their own hands, that by making ap- plication to have the drinking of liquor declared iI legal in their premises, they could bring about the result desired. The next move lies with the hotel- men, and it will be interesting to see how they treat the premier's challenge. It is not at all certain, of course, that the hotel: keepers wish more severe restrictions placed on their premises so far as liquor is concerned. There is more than a suspicion that what they really desire is greater freedom for the salé and consumption of liquor, that they wish the privilege of serving it in their public dining rooms. That is probably what is behind their present request, and the premier must be on his guard to see that there is no loosening of the laws in that respect. 2 WHEN ARE MEN TOO OLD? Labor councils in Canada have been requested by President William Green, of the American Federa- tion of Labor to make investigations to find out if men are being refused employment in Canada be- cause they are over 45 years of age. This is a question which at first sight may seem an absard one, but yet there is a serious situation behind it. Even in Oshawa it has been reported that men have 'been thrown out of employment, and have been unable to obtain new jobs, for the reason that they had passed 46 years of age and were not con- sidered competent to fill regular places in the labor -market in the various industries of the city. Some of those people who have interested them- selves in relief work in Oshawa have found that this condition is the cause of much of the hardship caused here by lack of employment. Cases have been en- countered in 'which the breadwinner is a man over . 45 years of age, and has been put out of employment. Efforts to secure a new job have been futile, because many employers will not take men on their staffs at that age, largely, so they say, because of the "Workmen's Compensation Act, since they consider that men past that age are more liable to be ia. jured in a factory. y To what extent that situation exists it is not pos- sible to say, but there are some cases in which it 'has brought much suffering to men and their families. The difficulty seems to be that, once men past 45 have . - a -------- It is reported that five million of the people of the United States cannot read.
