The pronounced increase in 1929 in the number of deaths and the death rate was largely due to the influenza epidemic which haditspeakinJanuaryofthatyear.

Amongst other important causes in 1929 were pneumonia with a rate of 86, tu- btsrculosis with 79.5, diseases of the arteries with 61, nephritis with 58 and diarrhoea and enteritis (mainly amongst infants) with 50 per 100,000 I population. a n can .I___2..._ rvr â€"-â€" v"â€"â€"v Violent deaths numbered 7,136 during 1929, and the rate was 73 per 100,000.

J Legislative restraints which exceed the sanctions of public opinion fail and create reactions contrary to the pub- lic weal, he thought.

THE DURHAM CHRONICLE NATION converse 9 This is supposed to be the children’s era, writes an English matron in the London Daily Mail. Modern mothers attend lectures and study endless treatises on children. Their lunch-time conversations revolve Iround the newest scientific methods of ifeeding and the psychological manage- ment of the nursery. All their children are supposedly highly strung or suffer- ing from acidosis, or from being “only” children. They never dream of doubt- _ing that the new methods 9‘ HW' OLD-FASHIONED MOTHERS ARE BEST SAYS MATBON fashioned ones. Some of us doubt it very much, in- deed. There is danger in the thought- less use by the unqualified of scientific superficial understanding of psychom. and also in the new passion for under- dressing children. Motherhood, alas! does not bring with it a practical knowledge of mothercntt. We constantly see under-ted babies whose mothers have read of the horrors of fat, over-fed bebies and bare-legged children in mid-winter. We also see listless children in the blazing sun. The psychological errors are even more serious. No nurse dares to slap e child. She spends inetiectual hours trying to distract and wheedle her charges. No mother thwarts her child for fear of arousing an inferiority com- plex. No father, of his greater exper- ience, suggests a line of conduct to his son, for fear of checking some inher- ent bent. The most of us waste consid- erable time in conscientiously answer- ing the heedless “whys” of children. It is no exaggeration to say that children rule us. An early bedtime, an old-fashioned, perhaps drab, routine life, and a little natural healthy love and common-sense would do far more good than these theories applied by amateurs. I heard the other day of two parents. both with practical experience of children, who considered themselves experts. Anxious to avoid “don’t” and “inhibitions” they designed a safety nursery, one where “no” need never be said. All day long their child, when old‘ enough, was encouraged to express and» develOp his personality. He was never checked or scolded. What was the result? A nerve-rid- ren, uncontrolled child, a pathetic little pe0ple’s lives; two parents whose ab- sorption made them narrow and dull. ’â€" In short, three miserable. overstrung. self -centred peOple. the youngest utterly unprepared to meet the “noes” that llluov was-v vv m- -_ -_ Give me a jolly, healthy child, not a noisy. bumptuous one whose “self-ex- pression” takes the form of a constant desire to annoy those in authority.

The Ladies‘ Aid of the Baptist church held their annual picnic Tuesday at- ternoon. August 12th. on the beautiful lawn at the home of the President, Miss Eva Redford. The day was ideal and a good crowd gathered. The early part of the afternoon was spent in games. About 4.30 quite a pleasant event took place. It being the 80th birthday of members, she was seated in the centre of the group and on a table before her was a beautiful birthday cake with 80 lighted candles. which was the gift of Mrs. H. Rimmer. Mrs. McLean was also the recipient from the ladies of a pair of silk hose presented by Mrs. Giles and a beautiful bomuet of flow- ers by Mrs. J. Ritchie. The address waspreparedandneadbyMlssE.
