PÂGU POUR TEE CANADIAN STATESMAN. BOWMANVILLi~, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY eth, 1934 The Forum (Coniinued f rom page 1) Coast -ta coast. The only benefit is to the millers who assure a steady demand for their own products. Naural when the large millers ableto cntrl thir fourprices, and hus he snallindependent Miler nd ake ca donotingbut abid bypries qote bythelarger mailer.

Then there are the thousands o! other small planta making bread, so that the consumer la paying dearly for Mide equlpment. if by these combines the country was served any better the consumer would have little kick comng, but a reoet investigation revealed that the hlgher prlced bread made by some o! the larger companles had '5 less nutritive value than the cheap- oJ r breads and o! ten weighed less. LJ In Toronto where there ta ever a ar on between bakerles, in which a trmendous advertising campaign Is carrled on and prices given, the con- sumer Is paying the baker ta per- suade others to buy f rom him. The cost of distribution o! bread is now about 30% o! the total cost, where- as iu 1923 it was only 13% NMk In the milk business conditions were much the same as in the bread business, although milk bas a sep- arate problern o! ita own. The lar- ger portion o! the cosita the con- sumer is not in the production but in the distribution. The speaker wondered why in Montreal milk was dellvered ta the consumer at 9c a quart, wbile the fariner was paid 3Y2c; in Toronto the consumer paid 10c, and the f ar-1 mier received 3 1-3c; in Wnnipeg the consumer pald 9c, and the farmer recelved 4c; whlle in Vancouver the consumer paid 8c and the farmer recelved 3.8c. This did not pre- sent a true condition, because out o! the farmer's share came the cost of alipinent to the dairies. Much o! the extra cost in the milk business was due to excessive salaries paid executives and ta over capitalisation. ~coal Canada's coal, Mr. Legge point- ed eut, came frein three main sour- ces, Unted States, Great Britain, and Canada. What the consumer wants ta know ta why British ceai la laid down in Montreal ai $6.00 per ton and the ocnsurner bas ta pay $15 or $16 for it retail. The reasen was quite apparent, that a combine existed thai was squeezing every cent out o! the con- sumer thai could be squeezed. A group have secured a monopoiy on English importase that no one else can import. Profita o! more than * 30% on iuvested capital are being made while salaries alone amount ta more than $100,000. The duplication o<yardls, distribuilng costs and ad- v C z in, besides offce staffs, had nch to do with the high price o! - -Onal. r Mr. Legge deait finally with gas- oline, explaining the price manip- ulations and control by the larger companies. The speaker suggested legisiation ta overcome this situation. Milk aud bread distibuted by municipal distributing planta ta, prevent dup- lication wouid assure lower cosis, a.nd a combine o! coal merchants in the interesta o! the public rather than for profits would benefit great- Wy. Asked wbat would become o! those thrown oui o! employment Mr. Legge stated ihat if ibis duplication were overcome the savings to Can- * adians would amount to 100 million dollars a year which directed int other chanuels o! manufacture would soon absorb those thrown oui o f work by the abolition o! the dup- llcate disiributing systems now in vogue.

GOITRE Siuated in the fron t of the nec] the thyrold gland. A gland is )ody organ that is designed 10 pro iuoe a particular secretion. Mos 'lands pour oui their secretions oi lie external or internaI surfaces o he body, perspiration and saliva be ng exaimples o! ibis. Several glands If wbicb the tbyroid is one, dis Lharge iheir secretion direct int thi blood stream, and are known a: ductless or endocrine glands. If the thyroid gland becomes en. larged, h ta called a goitre. 'Me en. largement may be due ta any one o: several reasons. The body requireý a certain amount o! tbyroid secre. tion, and if the gland is unable t supply ht, the natural result is tha, the gland becomes enlarged in it, effort ta supply the amount of sec. retion needed. This type e! en. largement ta known as simple goitre The secretion o! the thyrold glanÉ la essential ta the proper growti and health o! the indivîdual.

Harmiesa, and re- liable. Used by thous- ands bï &13 ,k a st ie s f s ut glands of sheep which supply what is lacking in his own body. An over-secretion acta as an accelerator; the human body being driven at ex- cessive speed, using up unnecessary senergy. Simple goitre is more comnion in some countries than in others, and in large countries, such as Canada, there is a great variation in its oc- currence in different localities. The tdisease occurs more freqiuently in tgirls and women than in maies, a.nd rit is seen chie! ly f rom, eleven to sev- enteen years o! age, and during or af ter pregnancy. One explanation, and the one that is most generally accepted, ta tuai simple goitre is due to a lack o! jo- dine in the diet. Apparently lodine is required by the thyrold gland for sits proper functioning. In certain rareas, there la little or no lodine in 1the soil, and the water supply as rwell as the goods grown in such ar- Seas are deficlent inii odine, with the tresult tlfht there is a good deal o! tsimple goitre in these areas. Persons rliving near the sea are usually f ree 1f rom simple goitre because of their use o! sea-!oods whicb get their 10- dine from the sea-water. AUl case o! simple goitre should be properly treated, even though they cause no symptoms, as is o!ten the case. 'Untreated simple goitres may pass into a more serious condition. Exopthalmic -goitre, or Graves' dis- ease, may resuit. hI s a mistake to atiempt the self-treatment of goitre wlth iodine or anything else. In the firsi place, a d.iagnosis should be made, and secondly, the advisabillty of uslng lodine in a particular case must be declded by the physician. Furthermere, the amount to be used and the period ta be covered are im- portant and caîl for inclividual con- sideraion. Questions concerning Health, ad- dressed ta the Canadian Medical Association, 184 College Street, Tor- onto, will be answered personally by letter. B.H.S. «At Homne» (Continued from page 1) with a month's wages in lieu o! notice, was also very good. Another item tbat brought forth a wonderful ovation f rom the audience was the Tap Dance by Jean Morris, Louise Cole, Elsie Carruthers and Helen Mason. These young ladies gave a clever presentation and their blackc and white siriped trousers, satin blouses and silk top hats, add- ed greatly ta their number. Jean Wight and Annie Allin rend- ered a vocal duet o! a popular song, and Tlm. Wigbt and Charlie Caw- ker brought down the bouse with two cowboy songs, witb Tim playing a guitar and Charlie a banjo. The pleasing program was brougbt to a close with two numbers, Juanita and the Church in the Wildwood, by the newly organized Choral Soc- iety o! the school under the direc- tion o! Francis Sutton, Mus. Bac. This society is a valuable addition ta the school organizations and their tirst public appearance was warmnly greeted. Churches throughout the district will benefit !rom. ibis soc- Lety as it contains members o! al ..burches who are o! course poten- tial members o! churcb choirs. At the conclusion o! the prograin boy students removed the chairs ta the gymnasiuin, while Charlie Caw- ker and bis orchestra tuned up for the program, o! dancing that !ollow- ed. Charlie's orchestra proved one of the best that bas played ai the school. About il o'clock the guests repaired to the gymnasium wbere the students served lasty re!resh- ments o! sandwiches, cakes, ice ream andi co!!ee. The dance con- tinued !ollowing lunch until abou ne o'clock, wben the NationalAn them brougbt to a close another .îghly successful social evening. r t a c t 1 t: fi PETERBORO PRESBYTERIAL MEET IN ST.
