The Massachusetts State ornitholâ€" ogist said once in our presence that each young fledgling in a robin‘s nest consumed every day in bugs, worms and other food, the equivalent to 14 feet of caterpillars. This means, for a man, about the same thing as eating 67 feet of bologna sausage every 24 hours. One sees by this something of what it means to kill a robin. "As soon as this artificial respiraâ€" tion has been started. and while it is being continued, an assistant should loosen any tight clothing about the patient‘s neck, chest or waist. Keep the patient warm. Do not give any liquids whatever by mouth until the patient is fully conâ€" scious," the cireular continues. Warning is given against moving the patient unnecessarily. â€" "Should it be necessary, due to extreme weather conditions or other reason, "Continue _ artificial respiration without interruption _ until natural breathing is restored (if necessary, four hours or longer) or until a physician declares the patient dead. "The ordinary and general tests for death should not be accepted," the circular states. "Any doctor should make several very carefu‘ and final examinations and be sure that specific evidence of death is present before _ pronouncing the patient dead."

"Drowning claims more lives in Canada every year than automobile accidents," declared R. B. Morley, general manager of the Industrial Accident Prevention â€" Associations, who is directing the safety camâ€" paign. The campaign is endorsed by H. R. Gillard, president of the Canâ€" adian Amateur Swimming Associaâ€" tion, who points out that 1089 perâ€" sons were drowned in Canada last vear. As part of their safety drive, the Industrial Accident Prevention Asâ€" sociation are blanketing the province with thousands of circulars and posters, showing in a clear, graphic way, how to revive a person who has been pulled out of the water in an unconscious condition. This method of artificial respiraâ€" tion, known as the "prone pressure method", can also be used in cases of electrical shock and gas asphyxaâ€" tion. It is the one recommended by the Ontario Hydroâ€"Electric Power Commission and the Electrical Emâ€" ployers‘ Association. The Industrial Accident Prevenâ€" tion Associations urge all citizens to put up these posters in their sumâ€" mer cottages so that the important information on resuscitation will be readily available, if it should be sudâ€" denly needed to save some precious life. Copies of the poster may be obtained, free of charge, by applying to the TI.A.P.A. office, 600 Bay St., Toronto. "During the past ten years, there has been an average of one drownâ€" ing a day in Ontario. This terrible toll must be reduced. Too many faâ€" milies in Ontario are plunged into mourning when they should still be wearing gay, summer clothes and having a healthful holiday at the lake." "Quickly remove _ victim from water and place on ground or other hard surface. If possible have head slightly lower than the rest of the body so that water and other liquids will drain away from the victim. "As soon as possible, feel with your fingers in the patient‘s threat and remove any foreign body such as tobacco and false teeth. If the mouth is tight shut, pay no more attention to it until later. "Do not stop to loosen the patent‘s clothing, but immediately begin acâ€" tual resuscitation.

Patch those elbows with a too conâ€" trasting shade and he won‘t want to put it on. Patch it or darn it with something he considers right, and he will be utterly unconcerned. Children are funny. They like to be in the swim,. Sometimes this urge is stronger than the one to be inâ€" conspicious. They like to follow fads. Ift there is a rash of red tams, for instance, a girl will rummage for a family castâ€"off and wear it even though it is sizes too big. As a rule they hate to wear clothes not bought or made for them. That first day or two of explaining the source is just too much. In this day of flat purses it is almost compulsory to dress the youngsters as best we may and the box from Aut Sue is about the most welcome sight on earth. But children dread those boxes. If there is a snug little biue coat that fitsâ€"well, that isn‘t so bad. But let it be gawky, though trimmed in sable sable and lined with satin, and watch the next heir edge away to the door. You can do more harm to a child by making him wear the wrong things than you can compensate for in a lifetime. If he wears it day in and out, it won‘t bother him much. He is pretty well satisfied to bear the brunt of his own usage. He likes to be one of crowd. It all the children wear sweaters, he will feel first rate in a sweater. He won‘t want it down to his knees and finger nails and he won‘t suffer if it gets old or even ragged. Children have an uncanny sense, or sensitiveness, about clothes.

"The thick tapâ€"root of the dandeâ€" lion when ground has often done duty for ‘coffee‘ making, and if washed whole and then ground it is said to be almost indistingnishâ€" able from the genuine article. In fact, so many are the uses of the dandelion that the stcry is told that once, when Minorca was suffering from famine through the depredaâ€" tions of locusts the inhabitants were able to eke out an existence for a time by the aid of the dandelion plants that abounded on the island." "Dandelion tea was once considâ€" ered a panacea for ills, such as fevers and liver troubles, and as a general tonic found miany to recomâ€" mend it, Dandelion leaves, used as ‘greens,‘ have never quite gone out of favor.

Dandelion Us es Cover Wide Range Rock salt is mixed with the top three inches or more of road, with at least two pounds of salt to the square yard. The mixture is smoothed and sprinkled enough to dissolve the salt. It is rolled smooth and hard. As the surface dries it "sets" and stays hard. Rain runs off without erosion. Even during the long wet spells of winter, the Cornell experiments show that a salt road does not appreciably soften. A sprinkling of salt once a season has been found sufficient as a rule to keep the robot particle army suffiâ€" ciently replenished. MONTREAL. â€" The virtues of the dandelion are extolled by an editor in The Gazette. He is silent on the subject of the good green grass which the dandelion kills out and on the ugly scene after the weed has done its work of reproducing itself in every place where it can gain fothold, 200 flowers in one! When the road dries out the robot salted particles start their most specâ€" tacular road repair work, creeping up from the deeper parts of the road and forming a soluble cement to bind together the surface particles. This prevents the road from drying out rapidly and keeps down dust. These roads, Prof. Ries said, reâ€" quire far less maintenance than old type gravel roads and are much less expensive to build than macadam. "Our forefathers had a much higher opinion of the dandelion in a general way than we have, though we may know more about the intriâ€" cate working of its arrangements than they did. By them the dandeâ€" lion was used as a medicine, a veâ€" getable, and a salad, and greatly esâ€" teemed for all, but especially for the firstâ€"named.

Choice of Shoes Vital to Babies Baby‘s first shoe is important only as a souvenir, but his first walking shoe is a momentous matter that may have farâ€"reaching, harmful reâ€" sults if it is not properly selected. Children‘s shoes have reached a stage of development now where there is little excuse for any child reaching school age without naturally perfect feet. Only one of 26 bones in the foot structure is properly developed at birth. The rest do not develop comâ€" pletely until the age of 20. This is the reason proper care in babyhood shoes for your child. Far better to portance for foot health in later and childhod is of the utmost imâ€" years. It never pays to buy too cheap, skimp on the material of his clothes than upon the shape, style, quality and fitting of good shoes. The very soft shoes that are ideal for the small baby just learning to stand are not correct for the walkâ€" ing stage. A firmer shoe is required for this period, with a sole suficientâ€" ly heavy to protect the foot yet so very flexible that the undeveloped muscles can bend it. Many of the foot defects suffered by children of school age could have been avoided by proper care in their babyhood.
