WEDNESDAY, JU;'.Y 2C, 1932 TliE FLESH ERTON ADVANCE DEPRESSION STORY >-> Queerest of all the tales of th» de- pression is this one, from Michigan: In lii2ii, before the crash, a man had a $280,000 loan at a bank, tu cover which he deposiluJ .stock, worth, at the market then existinj.', $-100,000. AVhen the stock market went into a <ail."pin th... bank sold him out, gett- ing $:icO,000 for the stock, and leav- ing- the man with his debt paid and a $50,000 crec'it in the hank. Then, I. little later, the bank collapsed. Ir, a short time it was reorganized, and in the shrinkage that was nivcived the man's credit dwindled to $36,000. Thereupon he drew out $;f0,000â€" and bought back all of the securities he had held originally. So now he holds the saine stock that he held in 11>2'.I, he ha.-s wiped out a S2S0,000 loan and he has $0000 in cash.

Man in Toronto bought beer on his own permit, placed it on his neigh- bors ice and now faces a charge of breaking the law. It is necessary to have the beer, the ice, the thirst and the permit all under one roof. Members of a church in Hamilton split on the choice of a minister. Add- ed to that is a threat to foreclose mortgage on the church because in- terest on $35,000 is not pai{i.

Road Traffic Count Road traffic census through Flesh- erton has been taken during the past week by Messrs. Robt. Fisher and Gordon Stuart. The former offic- iated from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. and the latter from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m. The traffic shows a decided de- crease in the number of vehicles us- ing the roads, as compared to other years.

The carrier is a person who, although well, harbor- the germs of disease and is capable of spreading by passing the germs t-. others. The carrier is particularly langerous. The person who is ill with a communicable disease is recog- •\\zci\ as a source of infection and is therefore isolated. The discharges "rom the body of the patient are de 5troyed so that they may not .spread 'he disease germs which they contain The carrier, very often unaware 01 lot suspecting his condition, goe? ibout his ordinary life taking no spec- al precautions. Whether or not the typhoid carrier preads the disease depends upon the habits of the carrier and his occupa- tion. The typhoid germs leave the body of the carrier in the urine 01 faeces or both.

MEN GET $5 A MONTH That there are ten camps along the trans-Canada highwlay where there are men working for $5 per month with board, does not speak well for our economic conditions. When men were paid 52.40 per day, during the winter season, they were paid too much, but now they are getting too little. However, as a relief measure is has been more successful than was anticipated. Undoubtedly this is the .season when men can do a full day's work on a highway, and one man working in the summer time, caii easily do as much as two men in the winter season. The lumber companies had no difficulty this spring in oi) taining men for river driving at $1 per day and board, and if a wage like this were paid wc could again have all the camps needed and this work could be rushed. It will be a great misfortune if this highway is allowed U) remain in a half-fii*.sh8d condi- tion. â€" Pembroke Observer. the milk. Unless the food i.s cooked later, or the milk pasteurized, the consumer takes into his body the germs which cause typhoid fever. It is because this danger is a very grave one and because outbreaks ol the disease keep occurring which are traced to carriers, that Health De- partments, as part of their service for the protection of the public a- gainst disease, keep known carriers under supervision. The carrier state may be inter- mittent, that is, the germs are only passed out at intervals. The' con- dition may per-sist for years during which time the carrier continues to be a possible source of the disease. There is no certain way to rid tihe carrier of the germs which he har- bors. Typhoid fever has been brought under reasonable control where water, milk and food supplies are safeguard- ed. It seems possible that this dis- ease may be eradicated if, in addi- tion to these measures, carriers are controlled. It is obvious that the Health Department is justified in be safe. Failure to do so, or just a casual rinsing of the hands leaves supervising carriers and borbidding the hands of the carrier contaminat- ed with typhoid germs. It is the careless or uncleanly typhoid carrier who prepares food or particularly the one who is engaged in the milk bus- them to engage in any occupation which has to do with the preparation of foods. This type of activity ot Health Departments needs to be bet- ter understood by the public as es- iness who is very likely to spread the sential to the protection of the public disease.

The bonded debt of all provinces in the Dominion rose from $218,875,- 927 in 1916 to $919,142,905 in 1930, with the assumption, probably, that posterity will pay these stupendous sums through the nose.

The town of Vermilion, Alberta, sent its congratulations to Toronto on being 100 years old, although that city does not attain its century mark fur two years yet. The Vermilion message is like the chap ivho arrives- early for the party and sits around looking at snap shots and family al- bums.
