It is known now that many cancers can be cured tf diagnosis Is made at an early stage and the treatment fol. lows promptly along the established lines of X-ray, radium, surgery In operable cases. Early diagnosis is the all-important factor, and this is being given active encouragement by such agencies as the tumor clinic of the Ottawa Clvlo Hospital, which has completed Its first year of existence. In that period C84 persons presented themselves for examination and 450 of them (an average of 37 each month) were found to have cancer of a malignant type. The result is that many of these patients before the disease bad ad- vanced to the stage of absolute hope- lessness secure the benefit of the most advanced treatment â€" and It Is quite certain that in some cases cures will be effected, In all cases suffering will be relieved, by the ex- istence of this clinic.

"Orders have gone out for teacii- era to give closer attention to both optional and required readings" said City School Superintendent George Melcher. Earlier the board of educa. tlon had directed that a committee of English tenchers study the option. al reading lists and eliminate all they consider ''not appropriate". Mrs. E. B. McCann objected to the books as unfit for her 15-year-old son. She said she had "read scarcely more than a third of fliis volume," but as|{. ed: "Why should anyone be required to wade through the filth In order to get some kind of a lesson at the end of the book?" Mrs. McCann expressed belief that "book reviewers, the so-called Intelligentsia and the great Ameri- can reading public, are so ignorant they don't know trash when they see It." Education Laws Will Be Altered TORONTO, â€" More than a dozen amendments to existing legislation governing education in Ontario will be introduced at this forthcoming sea. slon of the Legislature, it was stated officially at Queen's Park last week. Chief among thorn will be recom. mendations contained in the rport of the special Inquiry committee ap- pointed a short time ago by the Pro- vincial Government under Duncan McArthur, deputy minister of educa. tlon. Pi'obably the moat important of the amendmants will be that respect- ing school taxation, about which the deputy minister will say nothing. There is some possibility that the committee's report will not be made public, but that it will be made In the form of recommendations for amend, mcnts to existing legislation, and as such would not be brought out until the assetnbly sits again. Besides new amendments there still remain some which were left over from the last session and which will be tlntroduced in the new- House. Crowding Them In There was a truck loaded with stock going east through Stratford, and a number of people gathered when a short stop was made, ob- serves the Stratford Beacon-Herald. It was necossatT," for the driver of the truck to get up in the load and use a rope in order to get the head of one young animal up. There had been such crowding that once the head got down it coulii not get it up again. The truck drove off before there was time to take any action about having some of the animals taken out. As the departure was made it was noticed that the ani- mal's head which had been pulled up once more went down because there was no lomfort in having the head up. It did not look as though there was an animal in that truck which could move if it tried so tight were they wedged in there. There is law against that sort of thing hut the trouble is that a truck once under way can keep right on going and there is small opportunity to witness the manner if tho packing and crowding and therefore no remedial action is taken. Certainly that truck which passed through this city was an example of a method which should not be tolerated.

Whether their Jiidg- 2i Youth of Today Needs Guiding Hand Moral conditions in the world are serious. Young people, especially, need guidance on moral questions to a greater extent than at any time in the history of the human race. Never before have so many influ- ences been at work to destroy the very souls of men. Teachings of many prominent persons, suggestions in some mo- tion pictures and articles in certain types of magazines and newspapers, and in books, are giving many young people false standards of morality. The adversary is apparently mak- ing every possible effort to lead young people into immorality and imchastity, one of the surest means of leading them into apostasy and condemnation. Young people, as a rule, arc anx- iou.s to do what is right; but with so many influences at work to lead them astray they need counsel and advice. They need warning of the far-reaching effects and serious con- sc(iiienccs of immorality. President Joseph K. Smith, in an article entitled Unchastity, the Do- minant Evil *)f the Age, wrote: "No more loathsome cancer disfigures the body and soul of society today. . . . It skulks through the land in blasphemous defiance of the laws of (lod and of man. Whether openly known or partly concealed under the cloak of guilty secrecy, the re- sults are potent in evil influence." Tho (lospel teaches a definite standard of morality. This stand- ard is binding upon all members, old or young, male or female. It is the standard of personal purity and strict chastity. Care is Needed Storing Dahlias Valuable varieties of dahlias are often lost as a result of diseases de- veloping in storage. Kxperlmont^ conducted by tho Division ot Hotany of tho Dominion Kxperlmental Farms Itranch slunv that tl.eso losses can bo reduced materially by proper at- lentlon to tiho lifting and storing of tho roots. As soon as the dahlia plant has completed Its full growth. It be- gins storing material in the roots for future u e. This will vary with the sea.son, locality and the variety. W'hen the plant is inaluro It should b(> cut down and the roots dug very carefully with a spading fork. Drying The lonsi iied clump shoulil never ho pulled up by the stalk, and the us(« ot an ordinary spailo Is to be avoided, because these practices may cause wounds which render the roota very susceptible to attack by rot- producing diseases. The removed clump should be turned upside down to let moisture drain out of the stems and allowed to dry for two or three hours, particularly If the soli U wet. Removing the soil adhering to the roots Is not necessary, particularly If the clump has been tihoroughly dried. The root should be stored In * frost-proof place, but no where It Is too warm, to prevent shrivelling. Good resulis were obtained when the roots were stored at 35 to 40 de- grees Fahrenheit. Sp-hagnum moss was found to he the most satisfactory for packing the roots. This mots, when thoroughly air-drled, took care of excessive moisture from the roots, and at the same time prevented ex. oessive drying. Well-matured root* stood a higher storage temi>enitur« than Immature ones. Mature roots survived temperatures ranglns from 65 to 70 de.grees, but suffered consid. erably from drying. Moisture The vigor of plants grown from roots stored at low temperature* â€" 35 to 45 degrees â€" was greater than those stored at 60 to 70 degrees. There was less soft and dry rot In the well-matured roots, whether stored at high or low temperature!. Regardle s of what the storage con. ditions are, the roots should be ex- amined from time to time throuxh. out the Winter. If cundltloui are too dry sumo water should be added to the moss. If there Is evidence of rot, the roots should he moved to a dryer place. Fancy varieties are, aa a general rule, more suscep.lble to rot under artificial storage condltlone. for which reason they require more careful attention. Comments the New York Tim««i "The official census figures «â-  automobile fatalities do not greatl/ differ from the earlier estimates. They indicate that 35,768 people wtrs killed in the United States last jmt as compared with 30,760 the year be- fore What is the cause of this shodc* ing increase? About half of it may be attributed to increased use rf the highway, gasoline consumptiot having jumped 7.5 per cent, lasl year. A small fraction may be blamed on drinking and drunkei drivers, with more money to sneitd on liquor. Most of the rema'nder of the added fatalities can safely b« charged to increased sT)€ed .as dis- tinguished from that convenient h«t overworked scapegoat, reckless driv- ing. Highway sneeds are "definitely higher than they were a few yean ago." as the president of tie National Safety Council exnlalned in his address at Louisville. People who used to be content with M miles an hour are now "imi>«t1ea* at 4.=;." Thanks again to bettsf enuinment and improved highway surfacing, the ordinary driver oftet does not realize how fast he Is re- ing; 50 miles an hour today seems no more than 25 in the old days. Moreover, "any current mod^l can be driven much faster than the average driver's reflexes will permH handling with any reasonable dejtrss of safety." He does not stop to f^gnrs out that a car going twice as fast takes four times as far to stoTJ. He makes no allowance for the tim« tt takes him to "make up Ws mind" tt put on the brakes, three-quarters of a second on the averageâ€" a signM- cant and sometimes, at high sp«e<U, a fatal interval. At 60 miles an botxr, for example, the "reaction distanee* is measured at 66 f-^et, which most be added to a "brah:. 7 distance" of 160 feet, to calculate the total "stop- ping distance" of no less than tH feet. Bearing these figures in mind, it is little wonder that two-thirds «/ all fatalities to occupants of aot^ mobiles occur at speeds in excess *l 45 miles an hour. *"' Peasant Jitmpers â€" Sister, Brother His Heritage My son, you'll soon be leavlnf, As youngsters often do; Your mother will be grievinj, Your dad will miss you, too.
