â€"----â€"â€" Premier Promises Highway PawiBg Ko. 7 Stretchâ€"M, F. Hepburn “Makes Amends” to Ailsa Craig AILSA CRAIG. â€" Premier Hep- burn has made amends for uninten- tionally ruining Ailsa Craig’s fall fair last year. He has not only at- tended and opened this year’s fair, but he approved the paving of No. 7 highway for a mile west of the town. Ailsa Craig had planned to hold its fair on October 6, last year, but when Premier Hepburn set that date for the provincial election the fair had to be called off. In intro- ducing the premier, Fraser McFar- lane, president of the agricultural society, stated that it was partly to make amends that Mr. Hepburn had consented to open this year’s event. Complete The Job Later in the day, as he was pre- paring to leave the grounds, the premier informed several citizens that in response to a request from J. W. Freeborn, M.P.P., for North Middlesex, the department of high- ways had decided to complete the paving job on No. 7 highway west of the town. Only one traffic lane had been paved for a mile. The other traffic lane will be done this fall.

By and large, all industrial pro- gress since the industrial revolu- tion has been dependent on scien- tific research, Dr. G. S. Whitby, director of the chemistry division of the National Research Council, Ottawa, told the 14th annual con- vention of the Canadian Purchas- ing Agents’ Association at Mont- real last week. A survey of the industries of Chicago made at the time of the “Century of Progress” exposition iri 1933 showed 42 per cent, of the persons then gainfully employed in Chicago were engaged in lines of activity which were not in ex- istence at the time df the previous Chicago World Fair in 1893, and which had been created in the in- terval by the application of scien- tific advances. Make Standard Specifications The scientist aided the purchas- ing agent, Dr. Whitby said, by preparation of standard specifica- tions in which the qualities of goods suited to particular pur- poses are exactly defined and methods of testing laid down, thus making for intelligent and econ- omical purchasing.

Write today. W. Dennison, 150 Carlton Street, Toronto. Here is a noteworthy instance of the manner in which damp weather can affect the joints of one who is subject to rheumatic pains. “I had been suffering from rheumatism very badly,” a man writes, “and had such pains in my joints that T could hardly bear it, on a wet day especially. It pained me terribly to use my arms, am} I was hardly able to work. I tried two different remedies, but I was still as bad after the treatment. “Then I was told to try Krus- ehen Salts, which quickly brought relief. So of course I have kept on. with it, and I am now much better and have never felt' so fit for years. I Used to feel so miserable and sluggish, but now it is a pleas- ure to be able to- work.”â€"S.B. The pains and stiffness of rheu- matism are often caused by uric acid crystals in the muscles and joints. The numerous salts in Kruschen assist in stimulating the internal organs to healthy, regu- lar activity, and help them to elim- inate excess uric acid. Blue Coal Appointments HENRY S. GAGE HAROLD VERMILYEA It is with, considerable interest" that the coal industry received recent news of the appointment of Henry S. Gage, Sales Agent of the D. L. & W. Coal Company m Western New York and Ontario, to an executive position in the head office of that company in New York City Harold Vermilyea, who was formerly a representative in Ontario' has been appointed Sales Manager for Western New York and Ontario m his place. Mr. \ ermilyea is widely known throughout Ontario and although regretting the departure of Mr. Gage, his return will be wel- comed by coal trade throughout this territory. World’s Finest Ski Instructor Second Only to Hans Schneider Is coming to Gray Rocks Inn, St. Jovite, Quebecâ€"Will Es- tablish Famous Hans Falkner Ski School There. Falkner Ski School in the Province of Quebec should be of great inter- est to skiers in Eastern Canada and the Eastern section of the United States. Falkner, himself, is an in- ternational figure, who will be re- membered by many as the man who rescued Prof. A. Picard and his stratosphere balloon from a cre- vasse in the Ober-Gurgl glacier in May, 1931. What Science * Is Doing * WEATHER HAS A “ROOF" A “roof” for the weather, dis- covered just under the strato- sphere, was described to the fourth International Congress for Applied Mechanics at Cambridge, Mass. The roof is made of huge streaks of air, shaped like fish- hooks. One hook may be a third the breadth of the United States. Twenty or thirty of them may be detected on one day, roofing the United States from the Rockies to the Atlantic. On special maps they resemble a mass of snakes, partly coiled. They appear to be the controls for the mixing bowl beneath them, the whirls of air which are “lows” or storms, when revolving in one di- rection, and “highs” or fair, in the other. Their detection and their part in making the weather was report- ed by Dr. C. G. A. Rossby, of Massachusetts Institute of Tech- nology. They were found by air- planes and weather sounding bal- loons. “DEATH IS PEACEFUL” We speak of the shadow of death, because we fear it as a darkness stabbed with pain. Yet there is one thing that no one ever seems to bother to point out for our comfort; and it is this: That all the medical evidence points to death, not as an agony, but as .a painless passing from consciousness to the last equiva- lent of sleep. Did you ever read Dr. Alexis Carrel’s “Man, the Unknown?” Dr. Carrel explains that death is not instantaneous. It consists of two stages: general death, or the death of the individual, and local death, or the death of the organs. General death takes place with the last beat of the heart. At this point, personality ceases and the man is biologically dead. But- each organ dies at its own rate. The kidneys, for instance, can live on for more than an hour. MEASURES VITAMIN “A” Invention of a device which de- termines the Vitamin A. content in the human system in 30 seconds is claimed by Dr. Lionel Bradley Pett, 28-year-old University of Alberta lecturer-scientist. Lack of the vitamin is related closely to “night blindness,” colds and other diseases of the nose and throat. The device, simple in appear- ance but actually mathematically involved in its construction, out- wardly resembles a circus midway “penny peep” machine.

Kaustine En- gineering Company, 164 Portland Street, Toronto, Ont. WAverley â- 8985. One of the greatest forward steps in the promotion of ski-ing in Can- ada and the United States, both for beginners and for those who al- ready consider themselves experts, is the transfer of the famous Hans Falkner Ski School from Ober- Gurgi, Austria, to Gray Rocks Inn, St. Jovite, Province of Quebec. Falkner is probably the most out- standing ski instructor in the world today, with the possible exception of Hans Schneider, and he brings with him to Canada several of the teachers who have been associated with him in his work at Ober-Gurgl. The establishing of the Hans Town Clerk Finds Owner of Teeth Walter Hawkins, Port Stan- ley (Ont.) municipal clerk, is called on for many unusual requests, and to give assist- ance on problems, but none has been more curious than the recent successful case of the missing false teeth. During the summer a Port Stanley resident found the teeth at the water’s edge on the main bathing beach, and turned them over to Mr. Haw- kins. In turn, he watched the lost and found newspaper ad- vertisements appearing in the cjjgily papers, and posted a no- tice on the municipal bulletin board. Now he has learned that a summer visitor had lost his plate and accordingly sent the missing item to the owner, a resident of Detroit, who dis- covered that the welfare of the tourists is considered highly important here. Issue No. 41â€"’38 The Londonderry Cup Among the prominent people at- tending the ski school at Ober- Gurgl were Ishbel MacDonald, daughter of the former Prime Min- ister of Great Britain, and the Mar- quess arid Marchioness of London- derry. The two latter guests were so pleased with the spirit and at- tractions of the school that the Marquess donated a large silver cup to be yearly given to the win- ner of an international ski race or- ganized and directed by Hans Falk- ner. These races were to be open to ski experts, amateur and profes- sional, from any portion of the world. This race was to be desig- nated as the Londonderry Race. Before Falkner’s arrival in Can- ada he was promised by Lord and Lady Londonderry every co-opera- tion possible and was also given the right to establish in Canada an in- ternational race with the London- derry Trophy as a prize.
