Authorized as Second-Class Mail, Post Office Department, Ottawa SCHOOL AHEAD pKivE SLOWLY You've seen the sign olten enough atid periaps you do geta litle tired of being constantly warned about your driving habits but the fact 1s taat children will be skipping back to school next week--one hundred aond eight, four less than last fall, for they were killed in traffic accidents in the Province last year. In addi- tion, 4,487 Ontario children were injured in accidents on the streets and highways. We have turee schools situated on a highway and if the record is almost unblemished, still we cannot attord to relax our watch tor one minute. For the most part, our schools, and particularly our policemen, do an excellent job of teaching children the proper precautions in traffic. However, in the last analysis it is up to the motorist. The utmost precaution can spare even that youngster who bound- ed out and so they say "1 never had a chance." But we don't really believe it because when it says Slow Down, School Area, you know that a snail's pace not too slow for you--the min- utes gained by speeding are a lifetime lost. is THE WAYFARER In this day and age, Radio has to a certain extent, usurped the newspaper as "the authority." In my young days, anything we read in the newspaper we took as "gospel'"--it was in cold print, so it must be right. Now, tais mantle of infallibility has to a great degree been assumed by the radio. For that reason, it seems a pity that our smaller radio stations do not check the quality of their programmes a litthe more--and teach their an- nouncers how to pronounce words of more than two syllables. During the past weeks I've heard several examples of this-- The Prime Minister was in Madrah--obviously meaning Ma- dras (Madrass to you) ;The com- poser Prokopieff was renamed by a struggling announcer "Proka- fafe" (rhymes with "Pokerface'), while even' com- paratively simple words like "disreputable" and "irregular" seem to be a source of trouble. It's a pity. though, because children, listening to that auth- ority the radio, might well get the idea that such pronouncia- tions are correct. Its only fair to point out that CBC isn't an offender in this respect, even re- membering the unfortunate newscaster who talked about "The Minister of Wealth and Hellfare" (possibly with his tongue in his cheek!)

Dr. Bates is general director of the Health League of Canada which publishes the magazine. "In Canada, the fact that our nationa] dental bill is nearly fifty million dollars a year pro- vides adequate evidence of the need. for preserving teeth," writes Dr. Bates. "It is stated that in spite of the fact that there are approximately 5,300 dentists in Canavla less taan one-third of the population re- ceive dental care. "The total extent to which decayed teeth may affect the general health of the population cannot be definitely estimated but the known results of dental caries are serious enough to give thoughtful citizens some cause for concern, This alone is suffi- cient reason for the adoption of fluoridation of water supplies. "A survey conducted by the Fluoridation Committee of the Health League of Canada was undertaken to discover the opin- ions of medical authorities in the Departments of Preventive Medicine in Universities of North America concerning tne value of fluoridation of communal water supplies as a means of prevent- ing caries in children's teeth. The result has been an_ over- whelming vote of confidence in fluoridation. "We commend this article to our readers. Attention has already been called to the fact that chlorina- tion of water, pasteurization of milk, toxoid against diphtheria and fluoridation of water alike each of them in turn pre- cipitated controversies. To pub- lic health authorities there has seemed to be little rhyme or reason in opposition to measures of this type. It is significant that leaders of such opposition have generally been illinformed per- sons who know little about the scientific basis of the opinion of health authorities. An examination of the facts concerning fluoridation oif water provides definite evidence of the fact tnat fluorine added to water supplies in' proper quantities will prevent caries without dam- aging the human organism.

Fishing Pool Want to catch a juicy brook or rainbow trout--guaranteed to be at least eight inches olng? Don't head for the bush. Put down that rod and creel The fishing is better at the Canadian National Exhibition, and not even hip boots are necessary. A mammoth water tank. stocked with 1,000 of the very finest trout, has been installed inthe Coliseum by the Berkshire Trout Farm, of Sheffield, Mass. Rods and flies are supplied, and the only restrictions on the part of the operators are that only three fish can be kept per per- son, and the time of fishing will be limited to about 15 minutes. Hooks and worms are outlawed. The tank is 98 feet long and 18 feet wide. The water hasa depth of two feet--so me accu- pants can't swim deep and out of range. The rest is up to the fisherman--if he doesn't mind casting with several hundred onlookers crowding at his elbow._ The idea for the portable fish- ing pool was conceived by Joan O. Holt, president nf the Berk- shire farm. They have met with wide success in the United States, but this is the first time one has ever been shown in Can- ada. Anglers have hailed it as perhaps the greatest fish story A beautiful gift that will brin, her joy throug: the years. P.-F. Hardware -Electric [ since Jonah and the Whale. Tank trucks with fresh sup- plies 'of live trout from' the Sheffield pools will roll in on scheduled days to replace the stock taken home by Ex visitors. So unlimber that casting arm.
