TUESDAY, APRIL 30, 1929 HEALTH EDUCATION The outstanding factor in the admirable address on 'Health which Dr. Conboy, director of dental services for the province of Ontario, delivered at last night's meeting of the Oshawa Rotary Club was the em- phasis which he placed upon the necessity for health education, and particularly with reference to the re- quirements of children. : According to Dr. Conboy, much of the disease, sickness and death of the world is due to' ignorance, because the people are not fully informed as to the proper methods of taking care of their health. He went even further, and showed how neglect of pro- per health habits in- children of pre-school age con- tributed largely to mental and physical disabilities in adults, . : : * Dr. Conboy's address was impressive, in that h backed up his assertions by citing striking cases of disease which had developed through lack of proper knowledge. While confined largely to his own pecul- jar field of care of the mouth and teeth, his remarks were sufficiently suggestive as to provide considerable food for thought, It true, as he said, that health is the greatest possession of mankind, and that anything that can bé done to preserve it is worth while. If the imparting of proper knowledge to parents as to the care of the health of their children can be accom- plished in any way, surely that method is worth while. The remarks of Dr. T.W.G. MacKay, medical officer were a fitting rejoindér to the main speech. His plea for a pre-school clinic for the children of Oshawa' followed naturally the suggestion of Dr. Conboy that the most important age at which to begin to protect health was two yeahs of age, It is often said-that in these modern days therc is too much faddism, too many frills in taking care of the health of the young folks, but it is worth while, and if a pre-school clinic can be proven to be of ad- vantage to the children of Oshawa, it is worthy of being given very serious consideration . YOUTH SEEKING THRILLS A young hockey player at Sault Ste. Marie, charged with banditry, made the excuse that he attempted to commit a robbery while armed for the sake of the thrill he would gét out of it. : It 'seems a strange characteristic of present day life that young people are constantly seeking thrills. All of them, of course, do not commit crimes in or- der to find the thrills they are seeking, but many of them do foolish things, things of which they become heartily ashamed when they reach a stage of more sober judgment. It is a strange characteristic, this search for a thrill in life. The desire for excitement is not a healthy sign, and it often leads young people into .queer places and: unexpected predicaments. It is hard to say what the cure is for this condition, for, after all, there is something that is natural in the craving for adventure. The only advice which can be given with safety is for young people to take their parents into their confidence when they feel the lust for adventure creeping on them, so that they may find their thrilis in 'a safe and sane manner, instead of going off at a dangerous tangent on their own. i CANADA'S VOICE. } Dr. W. A. Riddell correctly interpreted public senti- ment in Canada when, speaking before the preparatory commission of the League of Nations on disarmament, he said this country was.opposed to any form of com- pulsory military service. Even in the days of war, it was only as a last resort, as an emergency measure, that the Military Service Act was called into force, so as to provide the necessary reinforcements for the harrased Canadian divisions at the frant. The people of Canada are essentially peace-loving. They have no desire to foster anything which is tain- ted with the spirit of war, and the European forms of conscription, carried out in time of peace as well as in war, are repulsive to Canadians, Indeed, many of the present citizens of Canada are people who migrat- ed from Europe for no other reason than to escape compulsory military service. I It is hardly likely that the disarmament commission will be able 'to persuade the nations of Europe to ab- andon their present system -of universal military ser- vice, bui Canada's voice has been heard, and her pro- test against the system has been made known to the whole world. A MAGNANIMOUS GESTURE The kindly action of King George, is creating Gen- eral Brumywell Booily, recently deposed chief of The Salvation Army, a Companion of Henor is a mag- | 1 i nanimous gesture towards an old man whq spent his life in a wonderful field of. service. It is more than that. It is a tribute to a magnetic personality which, while health lasted, wielded a wonderfud influence for good in the world, The tribute is all the more touching because it comes at a time when General Booth must have been feeling something of despondency. Deprived of his cherished office 'of 'commander-in-chief of The Sal- vation Army after a long battle, his, day must have been filled with something like regrets and bitterness, Perhaps it was for the good of the Army that he was degosed, but one can readily imagine what his thoughts must have been when be saw another ap- pointed in his place. . Then, like a bright light in the darkness, comes this evidence of the king's appreciation of his services. Nothing could have been more pleasing to public opin- ion the world over where The Salvation Army is known. And nothing could be tended to give more comfort and happiness to Géneral Booth in his time of trial than this evidence of the confidence of his monarch, LIQUOR IN REGIMENTAL MESSES Some stir has been caused in Toronto because the Ontario Liquor Control Board has put its foot down on the serving of liquor in the regimen- tgl messes of the permanent and militia forces of Capada. The board has asked the department of national defence to enforce the regulations, banning this practice, and these are being re- ceived with resentment in some quarters, But why should it be necessary for the depart- ment of national defence to issue orders that the regulations banning liquor in regimental messes will be strictly enforced? Does not the Liquor Control Act provide that drinking in such places is illegal, and punishable by law? Apparently, there- fore, there was a double offence. in the Toronto case which brought the question to the limelight, an offence, first, against the Liquor Control Act, and secondly, against the departmental regula- tions. There is no reason why functions held under the auspices of any negiment should be immune from the law any more than those held by any other body, and to permit such violations with- out making an effort to enforce the law is allows ing the thin end of the wedge to enter into the whole liquor enforcement system. EDITORIAL NOTES The modern idea of a standing joke is the flivver that won't run. It used to be said that money talked. Now men talk money. X The only time when relatives are distant relatives is when a man is broke. A cigar-sorter is to be the next premier of Den- mark, He should at least know the ropes. Men are funny creatures. It takes science to teach them the value of sunshine, but cats and dogs get into it naturally, . It is not so easy nowadays to take a short cross across the corners. There are too many gasoline stations in the way. Now that the second volume of "Great Men of Canada" has done justice to the Liberals, the Progres- sives may present their case to Premier Ferguson. "War debts are raised in the House," says a news- paper headline. If the house would raise all the rest of the country's debts, it would be doing a real job. In Oxford county a community supper was held in honor of a family of twelve newly-arrived immigrants, That is the kind of welcome that will make new- comers feel they are among friends, Very little notice was taken by the newspapers of the death and funeral of Prince Henry of Prussia, while countless columns were devoted to Marshal Foch. The world has its own way of placing an estimate on the value of men. R. B.

Barton, M.D. FOOD AND HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE I have spoken before of the clder- ly gentleman, well past his seven- tieth year, who was asked why he had lived to such an age when his brothers had all died about the age of fifty from kidney ailments and high blood pressure. His reply was "Well you see, I al- ways had a poor appetite." And our research.men now tell us that a large percentage of the cases of high blood pressure are due to the fact that the cells of the body cannot handle the amount of food that is caten. In order that food be available it must be burned up completely. If it be not burned up, leaving some of the food products only partly' burned, then these cause trouble in the Sys- tem, Now there may be something wrong with the body itself, that is the intestine doesn't absorb the food properly, the large intestine retains waste _boisonous products too long, some infection from teeth, tonsils and so forth, or perhaps the kidneys do not get rid of poisons properly. Any of the above mean that the blood is carrying about these pois- ans, the cells of the body rebel against such food, and the small blood vessels contract to prevent the inflow of the blood which the cells are refusing to accept. This resist- ance results in high blood pressure. As Dr. E. C., Thrash puts it "the cell asks for food and is handed a stone." y Excessive food intake is probably the most general cause of this type of high blood pressure, because ex- cess of food overtaxes the digestive system from the intestine to the cell, and the food reaches the cell imper- fectly prepared. So now that you know the cause of high blood pressure, that is due either to infection or to overeating, you can govern yourself accordingly. First, let the family doctor overhaul you from head to foot, and your den- tist X-ray your teeth. Any infection should be removed. Don't be satis- fied unless your doctor spends an hour on you, and ma'e sure that an X-ray of teeth is made that will show up the roots properly. Second, that you cut down your food intake, un- less you are working very hard phys- ically.

CONDITIONS (St. Catharines Standard) The Oshawa Times quotes City Engineer Smith, on the return of a rip to the South as follows: "Canadians should be well satisfied with the general standard of living that we have in this country, as it is better than in many other places." The average Canadian citizen cannot be blamed for always striving for something better, but his lot is a happy one as compared with many millions of people in the South and Southwest. There is not the illiteracy here in the first place as can be found in many of the states of the Union. Even in the Great West, where families are supposed to gamble on the weather, con- ditions are much better. Living in the Niagara Pen- insula is a paradise compared with some of the living conditions in the South, and the northern clime pro- duces vigorous people, The note from Oshawa is a re- minder that conditions are not at all bad in Canada for the worker, industrial or agricultural, .

Thou Guardian of my soul," from the public COURT SAYS BEER EXPORT 1S LEGAL Government, Awarded Only $72,000 Out of $421,000 Claimed Toronto, April 30.--The_ legality of export of beer to the United States by the Carling Export Brewing and Malting company was upheld by Mr. Justice Audelte in the exchequer court yesterday af- ternoon when at the! conclusion of the dominion government's action for $421,000 alleged unpaid sales and gallonage tax, his lordship found the company liable for tax on only 17 per cent .of their sales. His ficding was that most of the beer which left the company's brewery at London had actually been. exported. By this judgment, the defendant company is ordered to pay to the dopartment of national revenue a sum slightly less than $72,000 as against the $421,000 which was claimed. Costs were ordered agairst the company. The attorney-general of Canada may enter an appeal against ine finding. In his argument before, judz- ment was given, N. W, Rowell, K. C., counsel for the governm=nt, declared that the beer on which taxes were claimed had not Leen exported at all. "These goods werc sold in Canada, paid for in Can- ada, stored in Canada and resold in Canada," counsel said. Were Fictitious Characters Mr. Rowell contended that Grandi and Savard, said to be rum- runners in the United S.ates for the Carling company, were ficri- tious characters used to keep the company within the law. Harry Low, vice-president of the com- pany, had managed all the busi- ness at the border. COMMUNISTS CAUSE SCENE IN COMMONS Invade House and Hurl Pamphlets Among the Members London, April 30.--"Down with the government of murderers! Down with the persecutors! Down with the Simon commission." *Shouting 'these words at 'the top of their voices a man and woman yesterday inlerrupted the proceed- ings of the House of Commons galleries. They bundle of leaflets flung a huge of the startled over the heads members. Indignant attendants rushed for- ward. The man was rapidly hustled out, but the woman clung to the railing as she kept shouting and flinging more leaflets. The attend- ants forced her away eventually, but as they ran her down the cor ridors the place still rang with her cry of "Down with the per- secutors!" The seats and floor of the house were literally covered with green type-written sheets bearing the words, "Down with British Im- perialism, To hell with the Simon Commission." They also bore the name of the London District Com- mittee for International Glass War." The interrupters are known ag avowed communists. The man is a gauge-maker by trade and the woman is a clerk. She is 22 years old and the man is elderly. In ac cordance with the usual custom, both were detained until the house rose but no charge will be laid. The house was in the act cf pushing through legislation in a hurry in anticipation of an early prorogation when it was so rude- ly disturbed. Until then it had been sweeping through business at a rapid pace with the shadow ot dissolution hanging over it. At question time instead of the usual crowded benches there was only a scant attendance. TO SURVEY TRAP LINES FROM AIR Fort Smith, N.W.T., April 30.-- Though he has folldwed a trap line over the same country for ten years Frank Conibear, trapper and trader, thinks so much of an air- plane survey of the area that he has arranged for an airplane to take him for a flight over the lines. It is pointed out that there are thousands of miles of country that have never been trapped over be- cause of the difficulty of getting in and out, but which now become ac- cessible to the trapper who cau fly in by plane, ENDURANGE RECORD T0 BE CHALLENGED Two Women Aviators Will Try to Exceed Miss Smith's Time New York, April 30.--Undaunt- ed by the impressive women's en- durance flying record of 26% hours set recently by Miss Elinor Smith, 17-year-old aviatrix. of Freeport, L. I, two women fliers are making plans to set a new mark. Mrs. Louise McPhetridge Thaden of Oakland, Calif, who held the record of 22 hours broken by Miss Smith, had no sooner informed the United Press that she would make an attempt to regain the record, than Mlle. Maryse Bastie, of France, announced she too would take the air in an effort to win the laurels. Mlle. Bastie set the endur- ance record of French women. fliers on April 20, when she stayed aloft 10% hours. Mrs. Thaden, in setting the pre- vious record, surpassed a mark set by Miss Bobby Trout, of Los: An- geles, who had broken a record of slightly over 13 hours set by Miss Smith in her first endurance record attempt Miss Smith was resting at her home. She landed her plane at Roosevelt Field at 2:02:16 p.m. exactly 26 hours, 21 minutes and 32 seconds after starting her flight, GIRL PROSPECTORS ARE SEEKING THRILLS The Pas, Man., Apr. 30.--With a craving for adventure, two young ladies are prospecting in north- ern Manitoba this spring in search of minerals.

The cows belonging to the ninety odd shippers who supply the city of Oshawa are all in healthy and thriving condition receiving regular and thorough vetinary inspec- tian by Dr. Dickenson and the co- oneration he is getting on the part of the producer is all that can be desired. The milk supply of this city as it comes to the tables is of a very high standard both as to purity and butter fat contend.
