It is believed the con- ference will end perhaps in about a fortnight. U. S. Representation: -- United States Ambassador Kellogg was present together with Colonel James A. Logan, jr., the United States observer with the reparation commit- tee. ' Formally welcoming the delegates to the conference, Prime Minister Mac- Donald made special reference to the presence of the two United States re- presentatives. He noted they weer not present as full delegates, but he took their presence as indicating the good will and co-operation of the United States, in the effort to make the ex- perts' plan effective. 4 Carly MOWERS, RAKES BINDERS & TWINE OILS, TIRES, GAS, Ete "J. 8S. CORNER, Oxdrift, Ont. Agent for: -- INTERNATIONAL M. J. CROSIE General Merchant, OXDRIFT, ONTARIO I me Ambassador Kellogg, replying to Mr MacDonalds welcome, said the United States Government and people believed the adoption of the experts' report would be the first great step towards the stabilization of Europe. The United States delegates, Mr Kellogg said, were not attending the conference with the same powers as the others at the conference, probably because the United States was not a party to the Treaty at Versailles, how- ever, the Ambassador added the Unit- ed States representatives were present in the same spirit of co-operation and helpfulness.

"The Dunlop Trail" is the "new-idea' touring book, which rep- resents the first attempt to lay Ontario before the holiday-seeker in such a way that he can motor over the Province systematically. Bhe whole story of Ontario is told in sequence--Ontario from Winnipeg to Cochrane, to Win ser, to Montreal--yet the book only comprises forty pages, and is pocket size. Not a reference page from cover to cover--in other words, you get the whole story of a district when you are at the two pages covering that particular district. No advertising of any kind in "The Dunlop Trail." All maps and iHlustr ations specially drawn; all material specially compiled. Think of this feature: All your milege figured out for you over the entire Provincs--the first time this has been at- tempted in the history of motoring. In "The Dunlop Trail" you find every River and Lake trip in Ontario that has a schedule; also special Train trips; combination Auto, Boat and Train trips; the first complete list ever published of places in Ontario where Summer Hotels are located; every Gol Club and Comp Site in the Province, and real information, where you want it, about steamer and ferry services for taking autos aboard. In order to keep the circulation of "The Dunlop Trail" in the proper channel a nominal price of fifty cents has been put on it. Any Garage or Tire Dealer in Ontario will take your order for "The Dunlop Trail ail" or you can procure it direct from this Com- pany at any of the Ontario Gffices mentioned below. £0005 C0., LIMITED HEAD OFFICE AND FACTORIES: 870 Queen St. East, TORONTO.

It matters not how ponderous and massive some of the links may be, the chain has little strength and will not stand the strain if even one of its links are defective. This is true whatever phase of life one Take a baseball game for instance. = What greater drawback could be imagined than to have one weak man on the team? All others are playing faultless ball, and nothing seems to be in the way to victory. But the poor player drops the ball at a crucial moment when a catch should have been certain and the opponents score a home-run, evening up the score or winning the game. It was the weak player that did the trick. In any line of organized sport, such asfg rowing, every man must do his bit and do it well. There must be no weak spots anywhere. And so it is when we think of the public health and the effarts that are being put forward to keep the people well and strong, to prevent the spread of communicable disease, to save the lives of mothers and infants, to protect workers in in- dustry and to provide clean food, safe milk and pure water for drinking pur- poses. The disposal of refuse, the provision of adequate sewage facili- ties, the matter of personal hygien, good health habits, proper methods of living, eating the right kinds of food, and not overeating, keeping the bowls active, taking outdoor exercise, bathing frequently, cultivating a kindly and optimistic spirit towards those with whom we come in contact--these are some of the links in the chain of The recent convention of social workers demonstrated the numerous phases of health and welfare activities that have to be considered in the whole scheme of social service is to be of any real and lasting service to the com- munity. All phases of the work came up for discussion, child welfare, mental deficiency, delinquents, bettering the conditions of the poor, providing bet- ter facilities for workers, guarding their health and preventing aceidon their health and preventing accidents. These and many other topice were thoroughly considered. In listening to a discussion on industrial hygiene problems, I jotted down a few notes. They tend to show haw varied and in- teresting are the subjects being dealt with, and how they pertain to the welfare of the industrial workers--a class which comprises such large part of our population. Here are some of the things talked about:-- Protection of workers against an- thrax and lead poisoning, also came up for discussion as did also the question of providing legislation for the protection of women werkers before and after childbirth. Low wages and long hours pro- duce a lower standard of living, im- mortality and disease. Part of the duties of social work- ers is to try and bring about shorter hours of work in certain occupa- tions. A great problem confronting us at the present time is the reduc- tion of unemployment. The eight-hour day was advocated in industrial work of the nature of mining, manufacturing and construc- tion. New Brunswick, it appears, is the only province in the Dominion that permits child labour under fourteen years of age. oe Some scheme should be inaugurated to examine school children, so as to decide what employment they are best suited for. : FOR-- Dry Goods, Groceries, FLOUR AND FEED FRUITS, VEGETABLES, CIGARS, CIGARETTES, AND TOBACCOS CANDIES, SOFT DRINKS ICE CREAM BUTTER AND EGGS GASOLINE TIRES AND TUBES Go To H.
