d Sr CONS: an Ep OR ---- REE £ > < & Canada Plans New Legations Will Extend Service to South America Soon tg Push Trade With eyes on South American trade, Canada will shortly extend her diplomatic service to South Am- "erlcan countries. Prime Minister W. L. Mackenzie King sald early in August that it had not yot been de- '_elded whether the first legation "would be opened In Brazil or Argen- tina. For a time each legation will ve two countries, For years Canada had no diplo- matic service of her "own. The Washington legation was tho first 'opened. Then legations in Japan, France, the Netherlands, and Bel glum followed. There are high com- missioners -- who correspond to Ministers ---in the United Kingdom and each of the Dominions, Trade commissioners, forced by the war to leave -Europe, have al- ready been sent to South America. Opening legations is the next step. Mr. King was asked in the House whether the Government would take steps to have Canada join the Pan American Union. He replied that to "do so during the war would only cause embarrassment to the United States and the Latin American re- publics. He Indicated that when the war was over the difficulfes would be surmounted One-Storey Houses New Living Trend They Are Being Built To-day LIn Increasing Numbers -- Conveniences And Love of Qutdoor Life Responsible The increasing number of one atoroy houses now being built on this continent, reflects decided changes in the living habits of the > average American family. . "The popularity of the one-storey house Is due to several factors" says Randolph Evans, who has de- slgned hundreds of small houses in all parts of the United States. "The chief of these is probably our pre- gent greater emphasis on outdoor Hving, which encourages a tendency to place all rooms on the ground floor where they are within easy reach of the outdoors, "Another factor in the switch from the customary two-storey typo to _the bungalow is tho increasing number of low-cost houses now be- ing built and projected," Mr. Ev- ans continues. "This minimum type house, though completely up-to date In Its appointments and equip- ment, has fewer and smaller rooms than most more expensive houses. It then becomes more economical and convenient to group these dif- ferent rooms on one level Instead of two or more. STAIR-SAVING A FACTOR "The convenience of apartment- house living, In which all rooms are placed -on one floor, has also had {ts Influence. Many home. buyers | are attracted by the stair-saving convenlence of onefloor houses, And, finally, one-storey houses, be- cause of their greater breadth In relation to their height, usually ap- pear moro attractive, aesthetically. This War's Adding "To World's Slang Most Widely Known New Words Are "Quisling", "Fifth Column", "Trojan Horse" and "Blitzkrieg" The European war has contri- buted a considerable addition to the stock of the world's slang, says the New York Sun, "Quisling,"" the '"Fifth Col- umn," the "Trojan horse" and "Blitzkrieg" are easily among the most widely known slang words born of the present: war, and all four are likely to find a perm- anent place in the world's lang- uage. "Some newer terms," says a Royal Air Force authority, "are 'fan' for airscrew, 'station mast- er' for the commanding officer, and 'spun-in' for a bad mistake. To 'pancake' an airplane is now to 'crack down on the deck.' This ealls for 'tearing of a strip', oth- erwise to reprimand, No longer does an enterprising airman 'win a wanted article; he 'organizes'. hen supplies have been arrang- ed, Host avnplies hv been 'laid on'.

During the first twelve months of life, says the statement, the calories required by the average child increase from 500 to 1000 a day, and during this time the protein needs of the child may be calculated at from one-and-a- half to two ounces of milk per pound of body weight. REQUIREMENTS INCREASE From one to three years, the caloric needs increase to 1,250 a day for girls and 1,400 a day for boys. Thereaffer, until the end of the 18th year, there is a gradually increasing demand. At the end of the 18th year, girls néed 2,500 and boys 3,600 cal- ories a day. Fourteen per cent of the total calories should be de- , rived from proteins, and one third of the proteins should be from animal sources. An understanding of the basic needs for a standard dietary is of the highest importance at this time, it was pointed out, and full information on the subject is ob- tainable from pamphlets and liter- ature which may be obtained on request from the Health League. haad bes dE eae 2 What Science!

'The use of oil cans for food is considered to be a very dangerous practice since they are made of Terne plate, a plating which is al- most wholly lead, and very small amounts of lead are poisonous. SPECIAL CANS FOR FOOD Cans made expressly for foods are entirely different and can be bought at a nominal price from the hardware stores and mail order houses. Years of research have also gone into the manufacture of cans for canning food, with the result that the inside plating is lead free. This 1s done to make it impossible for foods to become contaminated with lead, and no cans should be fish other than those made as food cans, et Oil cans are not food 'cans and should not be used for'any food pro- duct.

Frost. Frost re- ceived the Medal of the Military . Division of the Order of the Bri- tish Empire, in recognition of "great courage in effecting the rescue of an unconscious pilot from a burning aircraft." Frost entered the rear cockpit of a crashed plame which was filled with smoke and fumes, secking the wireless operator, but found it empty. Although nearly ex- hausted, he ran to the front cock- pit and helped a companion ex- tricate the unconscious pilot.- This . was done at great risk due to the imminent danger of the gasoline tank exploding. The tank did ex- plode shortly after. {HAVE - | YOU HEARD? Minister (closing Sunday ser mon): "And brothers, don't run around with other meén's wives."
