They are now handling groceries, meats, vege- tables, hardware, paint, gasoline and oi] as wel] as automobile acces- gories. Originating with the amalgama- tion of two small co-operative socie- ties in the east end of the city, Co- operative. Service of Toronto Ltd. justified the faith of the five wo- men who originated one of the amalgamating groups, These five had been members of. different co- operative groups that had failed for various reasons, one because of bad management, another because of failure to maintain interest, while still another failed because of a too ambitious program. However, the origina] five, in 1032, after a year of studying consumer and co-operative problems, decided the time had come to embark once more on a merchandising program. The originals were: Mrs. C. Ren- wick, Hillsdale Ave. E.; Mrs. F. Frances, Willowdale; Mrs. W. H. Lane, 101 Donlands Ave.; Mrs. M. Oxley, Scarboro, and Mrs, M. Lane, 121 Jackman Ave. Sell to Themselves From a farmer they bought a dol- lars worth of farm produce and a d | crate of eggs at wholesale prices many people so kindly disposed to- ward Britain. We did not suffer as they did in France. While our food | ing situation is even worse and sold these to themselves at the regular retail prices. For the next two years they con- tinued to operate their fledging business from the home of one of their members each week they add- ed a new item. Late in the fal] of 1934 they opened their first store on Danforth Ave. The overhead ex- penses of the new venture almost swamped them, so in early 1935 they decided to amalgamate with a group of co-operators who had a store on Main St., which was exper- fencing the same difficulties of operation. The result was that both stores were closed and a smaller one opened at number seven Ald- wych Ave, in East York, Both so- cieties d to drop their original names and become one under the name of the Co-operatives Services of Toronto Ltd. Early in 1936 a delivery servite was instituted and the society be- gan to grow rapidly; later that year two other co-operative groups decid- ed to amalgamate with them mak- necessary a move to larger quarters at 928 Pape Ave. in 1037. With the continued growth of the society the members, just before the . | outbreak of war in 1939 decided Nurse Shortage Acute in West of hospitals; 1,200 are needed in the Jiivile duty field and 500 for public fuey again needed larger quarters embarked on a building pro- gram culminating late in 1940 with the opening of a store and hall at 846 Pape Ave.' Robbery A Setback 'While still at the first Pape Ave. address a robbery as the result of a break-in caused a setback scarcity of good help caused by the war, it was decided to dispense with fe delivery sirvice a operate only a cash an business, The wi:dom of the iit in en- dorsing the move of the board of directors at that time proved itself and while a slum that time hag almost been phen- omenal In April, 1946, the first branch store was opened on Arlington Ave. with other branches to open in oth- er parts of the city. Before that, in the fall of last year, a paint and hardware department was opened and the most recent venture is the | to taking over of a gasoline servic: station at Queen and George Sts. which is the first of a series cf such stations to be opened in strategi: areas in Toronto and suburbs. Associated Guilds Not alone on the pusiness side has the co-operative been develop- ing its membership. Associated with it on the cultural side are two wo- men's guilds, one located at the mafn store and the other at the home of one of its members in the Runnymede-St. Clair district, Also actively associated with it is a bowling league which operates dur- ing the winter months at one of the larger Danforth Bowling clubs. In the west end is a district council actively developing the consumer movement in Wards 6 and 7 and through one of its members now a member of the board of directors of the Co-operaitves, it is presenting a brief on behalf of the organized consumers at the hearing of the Crate of Eggs Thriving Business 0, Banded together in two credit un- fons are 253 members, one ha the other having more than $7,000 in capital.

The minister made public a sur- vey covering 467 firms employing 2,315 workers classified as "handi- capped personnel," and he said the survey showed sical handicaps are not nec ly vocational handicaps." The survey was made during 1946, when physically fit workers were available for many types of work. The fact that firms had not only retained their physically~ handicapped employees, but in many instances had engaged other workers with disabilities, wag the best testimony to their work abil- ity, the minister said. The work records of the 2,315 physically - handicapped persons show that the great majority of them do as much or more work than normal employees on the same type of job. Average Output A total of 313, or 13.5 percent, are to have a lower output than the physically fit workers. However, 1,783 or 77 percent, said to turn out the same amount of work as the fit person, 'while 219, or 9.5 percent, do more work than the fit worker. ' The attendance records disclose that only a small percentage of the handicapped have a higher ab- sentee rate than the usual worker, and this p has fewer unexcused absences $han the fit worker, On the evidence of the survey, the minister said, it would seem that these 2,315 handicapped em- ployees were, on the whole, less likely to be involved in occupational accidents, The * survey also showed that there was a considerably lower turnover of jabor among handicap- ped workers, Britons Race Snails French Ire Roused The British Snail-Watching So- clety, now a year old and counting seventy members, grew out of a whimsical comparison made by an Englishman, Peter Henniker Hea- ton, between the self-sufficiency and deliberate manner of the snail and man's sho A The society holds snail races in which the creatures make their way, in several hours, over an ob- Last in business was | French '| felt the co-operative's growth since gourmets are born only to be eaten.

STATUES Pity the poor sculptor, Not for him in this island can there be the occasions for free expression which were vouchsafed to Rodin or even Watts. Few indeed are those cul- tivated patrons who can commis- sion statues wherewith to adorn their peristyles and courts. The sculptor is bound to depend for his employment upon the taste of pub- lic authorities, and they in their turn are sensitive to the whims of their electors. It must be a galling for thing any to realize that the British | kno sculptor public, although indifferent to art, are fussy about'statues. It is not that they wish their statues to be beautiful; in fact, I agree with Sir Max Bowrhon, who, although not wishing disparage grotesques, once advocated that our London { | statues should be veiled. It is that the British public like thelr statues snails | to be like.--Harold Nicolson in The Spectator, REDUCE WHILE YOU EAT GLUTEN BREAD You can eat as many slices of regular bread, but vou get only half the fattening starch and four times the rich tissue build- ing protein.

The story that the Parliamentary Restaurant management during the height of the sugar crisis made then put their tingers into the deserts to make them syeet, incidentally, 1; not true and has been traced to a senator whose jokes are ordinarly as old as that one. But they are called "The Regu- lars" because no matter where they may have been during the parlia- mentary recess--at Banff or Jasper or Bermuda--they come back h:r2 for the session and form the cors of the staf! which caters to fired parliamentarians, Heading them is Yvorne McDon- ald, chief hostess, who early in life vowed she would seé some of the world and kept that vow.

Her hand resting casually on a cascade of rare and costly furs, Madame McDonald ticked off one by one: "Now, let me see, there was Jas- per one summer, . . very beautiful in the mountains in the summer; |ing and I was at Bermuda in 1936 and '37--the Belmont Manor, you Ww. ."

He advised members of his audience to their doctors if they could not meet this test be- cause "X-ray eyes" would be neeli- ed for the proper examination of a shirted patient. Dr. Taylor acknowledged, how- ever, that it was often tough going for a conscientious doctor because the reserved British were "singu- larly reluctant" to submit to medi- cal examinations. : 'London (OP).--Thieves who broke into a Jongen warehouse stole 90 army grea s--all stamped with prisoner-of-war insignia.

She termed him "an old goat and an old-fash- ioned politicign," in an interview in Toronto on Friday, She addressed a number of local organizations, in- cluding the National Council of Jewish Women and the Afro-Com- munity Church congregation on Shaw St., A noted anthropologist and author, Mrs. Robeson was em- phatic in her criticism of aging Pre- mier Smuts, and predicted trouble in Africa if there are attempts to restrict movements to free natives of discrimination. She recently re- turned from a six-months' stay in that country where she studied the native problem. Speaking of her own country, Mrs. Robeson said: "The Negroes in the United States are gradually in- filtrating into American life, and in the future they will do so much faster." In her opinion Russia has a bet- ter system of democracy than the United States. She described the Soviet press as being "no more bias- ed than newspapers in the United States. "There is a lot of nonsense talk- ed about the so-called restricted press in Russia," Mrs. Robeson said. "This is the result of misrepresen- tation in articles sent out of Mos- cow by newspapermen. There are 13 million Negroes in the United States who have no voice in the press and have had to start their own newspapers."

Facial Exercises Can Cure Acne Dr. Neil C. L. Stevens of Walpole, N.H., reports in the New England Journal of Medicine that acne (blackheads) can be successfully treated by facia] exercises, He instructs his patients to draw down the lower jaw ag far as pos- sible to stretch the face. This is done twenty or thirty times a day. In another exercise the skin of the forehead is raised and lowered, In a third the lower jaw is pushed forward and backward repeatedly, and finally the head is bent for- ward and backward and turned from side to side, : Dr. Stevens says that the treat- ment "not only appears to be an aid in the cure of acne but also betters the patient's lcoks by improving the texture and color of the skin and by increasing the tone and strength of the facial muscles." Weather Extremes May Be Cancer Factor San Francisco, Jan, 26--(AP)-- United States Army medical reco indicate that extremes of climatic heat and cold may have something to do. with the occurrence of can- cer, Lt.-Col. Joseph L. Bernier, cur- ator of the dental department of the Army Medical Museum, said today. One of the chief indications of this, Bernier said in an addres before the alumni of the University of California College of Dentistry, is the high percentage of lip cancer found in Second World War soldiers stationed in hot areas of the United States' southwest and in hot re- gions in Africa. Medical records also indicate he added, that lip cancer occurred more often among troops stationed in more temperate areas. Another significant gleaning from the records of 7,000,000 soldiers was that 90 per cent of these malignan- cies in men were on the lower lip and only 10 per cent on the upper lip. But for the same disease among women, only 60 to 70 per cent of the growths appeared on the lower lip, and the other 30 to 40 per cent on the upper lip. Since a protruding lower lip is more common among men than among women, Col. ' Bernier said these figures suggest that the great- er extent of exposure to weather ex- Pome was a possible causative fac- or. Still another statistical consider- ation supports this hypothesis, he added, citing the occurrence of mouth cancer ameng smokers, There are three ritation of the mouth by a pipe- stem or by cigar or cigaret butts; the tars in tobacco smoke, and the heat of the burning weed. Mechanical irritation long has been recognized as something which can start the cancer process. Of the other two, the heat apparently is more of & hazard than the chemi- cal content of the smoke, Bernier reported. New Interest In Mal de Mer Passengers aboard the Swedish American liner Gripsholm en route to New York last week consumed a total of 10,000 seasick pills--a total attributable to some of the highest seas the Atlantic has rolled up in quite a while. The Gripshoim ex- perience has renewed the argu- ments over seasickness, its cause and cure. It is being pointed out that dur- ing the war Royal Canadian Navy doctors compounded a pink capsule which they reported effective with three persons out of four. United States Army doctors also developed an anti-seasick capsule which is sald to be highly efficacious in all types of motion-sickness. Neither of these remedies, it is said, so far has been released to the general public. Among motion-sickness remedies available to the public, Mother- sill's, druggists say, remains a per- ennial favorite' Many ships' doce tors have their own prescriptions for mal de mer, The usual advice given to sufferers is to abstain from all liquids and eat only solid foods.
