Let us. then, enjoy these period.s of recreation to the full while we may. • • • The Royal Comnii.ssion into the Hydro system and the management thereof by the late Ontario govern- luent and its representatives have completed evidence-taking, and in a short time may be expected to an- nounce their findings, t • • The contractors are pushing ahead with the narrow pavement on the highway from Dundalk inorthward. But the road will never be satisfact- ory till the pavement is doubled in width. It is a mistake to make a half-an'-half job of it, and it is nut without danger. • • • Several papers recently have made the remark that in the recent Labatt kidnapping case the police were out- witted which does not strengthen the reputation of the police in the minds of the people. If the police had have had the co-operation of the family the result might have been different. It is hai-d to blame the family as they ivished to have the victim home safe :md sound, but blame should not be attached to the police for their failure. w • • It is intimated that Toronto streets •>rc to be interlined with English wal- nut and Chinese hazelnut trees, re- lilacing the familiar elms and maplei that have hitherto had a monopoly as hade trees. Ontario nut growers )iave been urging on the civic auth- rities that there will be profit aa well as beauty in increasing the var- iety. Our municipal solons might do worse than follow suit. In Holland, I'Vance. Germany, atnd many other i^uropean continental countries, farm- I rs and fruit growers on many of the highways have added to their incomes by the free planting of fruit trees. The scenic beauty of the thorough- fares is thus greatly enhanced.

THURSTON The part played by heredity and overweight in the occurrence of dia- betes has iK'cn recognized for many years. In more recent years, through the combined use of insulin, diet and exercise, the life of the diabetic has been raised to a normal level. With this wonderful advance in treatment has come the |)ressing necessity of discovering diabetes early in order that cases may be placed under projiei treatment before complications de- velop. Most of our readers are familial with the importance of discovering tU'berculosis early, and how unsuspect- ed cases are looked for in the families of the known cases. It is becoming much the same with diabetes. Not every fat person develops dial>etes nor do all the members of the fam- ily develop the disease when one ol them is a diabetic. Nevertheless obesity and heredity are the two out- standing factors in the histories of those who become diabetics. The physician of today looks for unsuspected cases of diabetes among the members of the family of the known cases. His attention is direct- ed in particular to those who arc overweight, more especially to the women past fifty and whose weight is above the average. He does this because it is the most practical way to discover unsuspected cases in Iheii early stages. Examination of the urine for sugar is now such an accept- ed part of all medical examination.s that it has been said that "the only place you can go without an urinalysis is to church." Diabetes is much more common in cities and towns than it is in rural areas. It may be that this is be- cause city people do not have as much hard physical work to do as have those on the farm. The result is that city people put on fat which is, as we have said, the worst enemy of the diai)etic. Tlie increased prevalence of diabetes in women over forty, as compared with men of the same age. nuiy have some relationship to the introduction of labor-saving device!" j into the home. In so far as the prevention of dia- i)etes is concerned, those with a dia- betic history should not marry into a family with the same history. The children of such a union are seriously handicapped as regards diabetes. Overweight should be avoided al and after middle life by all. Those who have a .family history of diabetes should avoid an increase in their girth, and they should be examineil periodically by their physician to al- low for early detection if the disease should develop.
