CANADIAN CHILD STANDARD . Records of the height, weight" and age of pupils in Toronto public schools have been taken as a first. * step toward establishing reliable stan- dards _for determining conditions of From the data gathered ; the medical staff expect to arrive at . Canadian standards of height, weight ' and health of Canadian children. The standards of the U.S. and Great Brit- ain have been relied upon heretofore. It is believed` that owing to varying conditions in those countries the stan- dards will be found entirely different. A -physical survey of school children should prove interesting, not only ` for comparison-, but for arriving at a standard-on which to base conclus- . ions regarding pupils condition for ` progressive study. a ` -anusnvuu v nvuvv vwuannuc City ;vages must be weighed with city expenses. City advantages must be weighed with city disadvantages. The artificial life offered by the large centres of population is a lure to a many. But the spacious lawns, the . out-of-door life, the neighborlines_s, .the' simple pleasures, and the com- munity `interests of the small town are worth something after all. De- population of these centres is not a pleasing phase of they decennial census. ' SMALL Towns 3231' Commenting on the decreased population in a number of towns and villages,` shown bythe census, the Toronto Star points out that "many people who leave the '.towns for the cities find that all is not gold that ,.glitters regarding their new condi- tions.

I eIf Barrie is to undertake any per- manent paving this year in connec- tion with theAProvincial Highway, the Council should be early at the work of preparation. To help get things going The Examiner sent a repre- sentative to Orillia this week to learn of what has been done there. His report, which appears in this issue, contains much valuable information. It shows that, notwithstanding the cost, Orillians-are enthusiastic over what they have accomplished in this direction. a wx R'n`g1a'1s'i.;ss`A"Mx_`u' \J. A. M. Armstrong, ex-M.P., has withdrawn hiscandidature in North York against the Premier, but Pro- gressives declined to do like- wise in Grenville in favor of the ex- Premier. Before the geheral electior. supporters of Mr. Meighen said all he . needed was a chance to talk to win. Apparently Grenville Progressives wanted to hear that talk. It will` surprise some to learn that deaths from cancer in Canada (ex- clusive of Quebec) for half of 1921 exceeded those due to tuberculosis. Both of_ these diseases are the great- est scourges. that afflict human-kind, to a great extent resisting all the energies of th'e most expertmedical minds bent in their direction for the purpose, of eradication. On Wednesday Judge Vance ad- vised the county council that in fu- ture the . municipalities would have to bear election costs which hereto- fore have been borne by the pro- vince.
