This is a vastly serious question for the gt‘wernment. It means that nobody is guarded against goitre. I shall have to advise the government to take urgent steps to have a law passâ€" ed which would insure the. right amount of iodine in all table salts Q used in the proyince.’ SAYS ONTARIO SALT Provincial Sanitary Engineer Goitre Cases to This Cause. A sciisalional statement was made by Dr. A. F. Dallyan, provincial san- itary cnginccr for the board of hoalill. at tho I'Nti‘nt session 0f the Ontario Hvallh ()tl‘icors’ Association.

No more goitrc would prob- ably mean no more of the cancer which so often follows thc cancer stage. A 1‘--l n-‘ “n‘ “1‘.

I At nino out of every ten formal weddings in English and American society, it. is said, Lohengrin’s Wedding March is used. “Here comes the bride! Here comes the bride!” Can’t you hear this grand march starting many a young couple triumphantly on the sea of lift"? --A~-\:l‘r\ ‘hn But many who recognise the music do not know- that it is an excerpt from one of Wagner’s most famous Operas. The opera itself was first produced in 1850, and centers about Lohengrin. one of the Knights of the Holy Grail which we read about in history.
