Barton, M.D. PINNING KEEPING FIT FCR WORK OR PLAY When we were young, the word 'exercise' was not in general use. We simply went outdoors to play. In the gymnasium we would pa- tiently go through the calisthenic exercises--freehand or with dumb bells or clubs--waiting for the per- iod when we could nlay a group game such as basketball, or volley ball, or do some individual work on the apparatus. All this was done for fun or enjoyment, not with the idea of taking exercise to benefit our health. For years exercises to many men and women has meant golf with its couple of miles of walking, climbing stooping, and hitting the ball. Ten- nis, a more strenuous game, is more | popular, and rightly so, with young- | er men and women. However in Europe and Great Britain the old fashioned and none too popular exercise to cause fitness | has in recent years been backed or | supported by the government be- cause fitness for work or play means much to the he:ith and morale of a people. | Dr. E. P. Cathcart, University of | Glasgow, in the British Medical | Journal states that 'national fit- ness" means the building up of healthy human beings, well bal- ! anced physically, mentally and emo- tionally who will be fully capable of adjusting themselves to their im- mediate surroundings, be it of work or play Acquiring fitness means regularity of physical exercise or training, | proper diet, plenty of fresh air and an adequate amount of sleep "People must want to be fit. They must be prepasted to pay the price, but many want :the final result | without the negisary effort." As a matter of fact, most important point. about a ing fitness is 'regularity,' regi of eating hours, hours In regard to exe individual can get | necessary by attend of sleeping the average e exercise ymnasium of exercise, | classes three times a week or tak- ing systematic setting up exercises, of ten minutés, at home daily. A daily walk should be a regular habit. Regular exercise strengthens heart and lungs, keeps blocd vescels more elastic -- postponing high blood pressure -- aids digestion, prevents constipation by stimulating the flow of bile, and keeps the body springy and erect. ON THIS DATE = BY = FRED WILLIAMS On this date in 1825 (115 years ago) New Brunswick was visited by its greatest calamity. It had been a dry summer. A long drought had parched the timber to tinder. For two months not a drop of rain had fallen and the streams were shrunk- en to rivulets. Numerous small fires had laid waste woods and farms and filled the air with stifling smoke. Government House at Fredericton was burned. In Oct. T the fires spread; a storm of flame swept over the country for 60 miles from the Miramichi to the Bay de Chaleur. A piwchy darkness covered the sky; lurid flames swept over the earth, consuming the forests, farms, hous- es, barns, crops and everything in its path. The towns of Newcastle and Douglas were reduced to ashes; several ships on the stocks were consumed. Resistance was in vain and escape almost impossible. The only hope of evading the tornado of fire was to plunge into the rivers and marshes and cower in the water or ooze until the wave of flame had passed. The roar of the wind and fire, the crackling and crashing of the pines, the bellowing of the ter- rified cattle and the glare of the conflagration were an assemblage of horrors sufficient to appeal the strongest heart When that fatal night had passed, the thriving towns villages and farms over an area of 5000 squars miles were a charred and blackened desolation. A million dollars' worta of accumulated property (equal to five times that amount today) was consumed. The loss of timber was incalculable. One hundred and sixty persons perished in the flames or in their efforts to escape and hundreds were maimed for life. The generous aid of the sister colonies and of Great Britain and the United States greatly mitigated the suffering of the hapless inhabi=- tants, homeless on the eve of a rigorous winter; but with that cour. age which has always marked New Brunswickers the people set to work and rebuilt; but it was half a century before the timber was re- | stored. FIRELOSS SOARS SABOTAGE DENIED Toronto, Oct. 7 -- Industry in | Ontario has not suffered loss from J Savotage fires or exnlosions, Fire Marshall W. J. Scott reports, but fire loss for the last three months equals that for the previous nine { months of the war period Since July 1. Ontario industry has suffered 288 fires with loss of $1.- | 058.622 but most of this increase was due to two fires at Brantford, [a canning factory blaze with $275,- 000 loss and a $60,000 fire in a roof- ing factory. The increase is not deemed so | startling when consideration is giv. | en to the greatly increased incus- trial activity and increased fire hazards in war manufacturing, In- | cendiary fires for the 12 months of war were one-fifth of the incen- diary loss in 1939. ' Two incendiary fires have arisen since war started, one in a children's wear factory in Toronto in October, 1939, and the | other in a cheese factory in Storm- | ont County last June. Neither had | anything to do with the war.

Don't suffer longer; try Ru-Ma today and if you are not pleased with the results, your money will be refunded by Tamblyn's This is a generous offer to all rheumatic sufferers. .
