Perhaps the car in some cases is safer for the community," said Edward Fuller, ot the Save the Children Fund, at the National Conference on â€" Maternity and Child Welfare bere recently. "At least," he added, "you get a book of instructions with a new car, and you bhave to pass a ministry of transport test before you can get a driving license. "No book of instructions is issued with a new baby, and no test or Iiâ€" cense is required before undertaking the responsibility of parenthood. 1 wil Inot discuss the advantages of the tests for parenthood, but there is much to be said for the ‘book‘ of inâ€" structions.‘ Delivering the presidential address Georfflrey Shakespeare parliamentary secretary of the ministry of health, said motherhood was safer in this country than in any other, with the possible exception of Holland. The rate of maternal mortality in England and Wales for 1935 was 4.10 per 1,000 live births, the lowest figure recordâ€" ed since 1925. There had been a steady develop ment in welfare work, and all expecâ€" tant mothers, ho said, should regard it as normal to take advantage of the medical facilities for examination and advice provided for by the public auâ€" thorities. Mr. Shakespeare said 1935 had witnessed establishment of a new low record in the rate of deaths of infants under the age of one, the figure for England and Wales being 57 deaths per 1,000 live births as against 130 in the year 1911. Speaking of the care of the newlyâ€" born child, Dr. A. Leyland Robinson, professor of obstetrics and gynaecoâ€" logy at Liverpool University, said: "It is a startling thought that the first month is the most dangerous period of life, and that the first haltâ€" hour of our existence is probably the most critical part of this crucial perâ€" ‘w'†H.

What a curicus thing is human behavior! Government appointments to the directorates of the new setâ€" ups of the National Railways and Radio are not to be made for some time, observes the Ottawa â€"Journal. Perhaps not until the Fall. Yet only a few months ago Parliament was seething with excitement about the proposed changes,. The Government said that changes were vital, inâ€" escapable. Indeed, it (the Governâ€" ment) would be recreant to its trust if it didn‘t make them. Our railways and radioâ€"they just had to be saved. Well, they haven‘t been "saved." Not yet. More than five weeks have gone since Parliament provided for their saving, but Judge Fullerton is still running the Canadian National and Mr. Charlesworth is still running radio, and we haven‘t noticed that either institution has been ruined, or that anybody continues to be excitâ€" ed about them. They just keep rolling along Men have a passion for change. And a propensity for exaggeration. We magnify moleâ€"hills into mounâ€" tains, make storms that would fit nsatly into teacups, get te believe that everything that is must be wrong. We imagine ourselves importâ€" ant, fee! that if we don‘t do certain things, or pass certain laws, or change something or somebody, the earth will cease revolving. It is just imagination. Most of us are but tiny drovs in an ocean of infinity. Keep Rolling Alons around.‘ With most things in life, it is preâ€" cisely that way. We fret and fuss over things we think we must do, say that if we don‘t do them someâ€" thing terrible will happen, and then, the thing or things done (or left unâ€" done) we discover that little happens.

While American political parties comb the field for Presidential timber, Lena Madesin Phillips, named seven women who, she thought, could fill the job. Among the seven mentioned are Mrs. Franklin Roosevelt, Ruth Bryan Owen, Frances Perkins, a former member of Congress (Ruth Simms), Judge Florence Allen, Josephine Rodie, mining executive and Assistâ€" ant Secretary of the Treasury; and Lillian Gilbreth, university instructor anu consulting engineer. Miss Phillips believes the day is sure to come when a woman . will be installed in the White House. These women, she says, have sufâ€" ficient understanding of "fundamental social and economic problems" for the job and "women in general have a more detached approach to poliâ€" tical problems than men, and thereâ€" fore fewer axes to giind." Miss Phillips has no patience with the widespread discussion of the economic ‘result of "women‘s taking men‘s jobs." "The truth is," she says, "that men have taken ours. In the old days womer made the clothes and the candles for lights, and originated the process of carning vegetables and fruits. "Then came the machine age and men began to take up our jobs â€" to make clothes, cook, build gas and electric plants and erect canning factories. In a comparatively short time they took most of our jobs and them complained when we went into factories to try to get them back. "When she loses her job what hapâ€" pens? She begins to make her own dresses, hats, bread and canned goods â€"all the things that she previously bought in storeâ€"and that is no help to a country‘s industries." Most of the women have been r*arried and five have children. In fact, Dr. Gilbreth is the mother of 12. Any of a Dozen Women Capable of Heading Govt.

As much as two or three quarts a day can be assimilated if properly spaced. Two or three pieces of candy eaten during the foreâ€" noon and afternoon will quickly supâ€" ply enough energy for the average person and will compensat for the absence of meat, eggs and starchy foods. Burned skin, even mildly, over half or threeâ€"quarters of the body obtained in one exposure invariably causes a toxemia, which makes one tired, thirsty, languid and stuporous, if not acutely ill. That "draggedâ€"throughâ€"aâ€"knotâ€"hole feeling" should be recognized. It is a ature‘s warning that she is being taxed and needs assistance. If time can be spared one hour twice a day will help considerably. Expend the minimum of energy in taking a bath and the maximum of time to get the best result. This hot weather advice applies to those who suffer from excessive persâ€" piration as well. The excretion of liâ€" quid (sweat) in an immoderite amâ€" ount dries up the tissues and a toxic condition comparable to the after efâ€" fect of one who indulges not wisely byt too well. In brief, to lessen sunburn seâ€" quences one needs more rest, two baths a day taken slowly, less solids by oneâ€"half, more liquids by oneâ€"half and four to six pieces of candy a day. This applies to children as well as adults The sad part of this is that the nephritis may go on undetected until a subsequent illness even years later reveals a chronic nephritis. The oriâ€" gin of this will be a mystery to you if you never knew that sunburn could start up a nephritis, which is an inâ€" flammation of the kidneys. A good rule to follow after a sicâ€" kening sunburn is to consult a physiâ€" cian. Have a specimen of urine exâ€" amined. If the result of the analysis is negative, well and good, the nephâ€" ritis was transient and no damage has been done. But if it is still present (the urine will show albumen, pus cells and possible casts) you will need treatment. A severe sunburn is not a minor, or skinâ€"deep affair, warns Mary M. O‘Donnell, in the New York Sun. One of the frequent sequences is nephriâ€" tis (Bright‘s disease). If an attack of sunburn laid you low even one day, the chances that your kidneys sufâ€" fered, with aching, burning and comâ€" plete exhaustion, are about even. The skin is one of the trio of elimâ€" inators which nature relies upon. If the skin is burned the pores are closed, they cease to function and exâ€" cess work is put upon the kidneys. To help them rest is imperative, and liâ€" quids should be increased.

Sunburn Is More Than Skin Deep Kidneys More Cigarettes Smoked in Canada OTTAWA, â€"â€" The consumption ot cigarettes in Canpada is steadily in creasing, but not to the extent indic ated by a recent despatch. The inâ€" advertant dropping of figures made the consumption five years ago ap pear to be four bundred million, and whereas it should have been four bitâ€" lion, four bundred millions. in the last fiscal year consumption rose to five billion three bundred and ten million â€"â€" an increase of 910 millions, which is quite a few cigarettes. 16 s Often _ Effects of Burn Suffer a Bad from Wheat Yield Is Low In Britam We may not like the theory or the practice. We may make distinctions between farm and factory producâ€" tion. _ Yet we must recognize that farmers. will not raise much if the community pays them more for little. What then of the community? Cerâ€" tainly the â€"drought is no boon to it. It will have less to eat and pay more for it. Their natural inclination is to proâ€" duce as much as possible. But increasâ€" ingly farmers are counting their reâ€" turns in money, and when 1,000 bushâ€" els are worth more than 1500 the agâ€" ricultural â€" producer imitates the inâ€" dustrial producer â€" he plays the monâ€" opoly game. He tries to restrict supâ€" ply in order to improve prices. Is The Drought Really A Boon! Recently in the United States he has had help from Washington. He says manufacturing has long had simâ€" ilar help through tariffs which resâ€" trict imports in order to keep the prices up. And he argues that if crop curtailment is beneficial to farmers, then crop curtailment by weather is beneficial for farmers, then crop curâ€" tailment by agreement â€" with no farâ€" mer ruined and all sharing in jimprovâ€" ed prices â€" is even better, If the drought is a boon, so is a plowingâ€" under program. How can that situation be changed*? How can the growing practice ot monopolism be checked? A beginâ€" ning might be made if production were viewed from the consumers‘ standpoint, rather than from that of the producer of a given commodity. And if it is recognized that national wealth is measured ultimately in goods, not dollars. The community then r‘sht move to prevent plowing under either by factory or farm. Cerâ€" tainly it would not by government action promote curtailmen: of wealth for the benefit of certain groups. It would not produce the same effect as a drought, which, however much it may help even a majority of farmâ€" ers, makes the whole nation poorer. Crop Expected to Be Less Satisfactory Than in 1935 The Ministry of Agriculture conâ€" tends it is too early yet to speak defiâ€" nitely of an alleged world shortage of wheat. It says that the real deâ€" termining factors are the Argentine and Australian crops. If these prove average, no shortage is likely in the United Kingdom. The theory is that unless dry weaâ€" ther had destroyed part of the crop there would have been a market glut which would have driven prices to low levels. Total cash returns would have been smaller than on a mediumâ€"sized crop with good prices. This theory has been experienced as fact by a great many farmers on several o¢â€" casions in the past. It explains the support many of them have given raâ€" ther reluctantly _ to governmental measures to curtail production. LONDON, Eng.,â€"According to the Daily Mail, the British wheat crop is likely to be less satisfactory this year than in 1935. â€" The Daily Mail also quotes the minâ€" istry as saying "it seems at present that Canada, the source of our main supply, likely will have a good crop with conditions there mainly favorâ€" able." Nevertheless, Canadian Minister of Agriculture Gardiner is reported by the Daily Express as saying: "The latest information is not cheerful. Drought has reduced the crop nearly 50 per cent." According to the Associated Press reports, railroad economists are esâ€" timating that the majority of Amerâ€" ican farmers will be richer as a result of the drought which has brought the hardship and ruin to the many during the last few weeks, wrote the Christâ€" tan Science Monitor.
