The basis of vitamin C in milk is the : ascorbic acid it contains, and this article‘ varies very little in different breeds of cattle, with the stage of lactation or | age of the animal. The variation is due to the character of the animal‘s food.

W. S. McCullough, M.D., D.P.H.) Doztor Reedman of the School of Hygiene, University of Toronto, says that the most recent studies show that the nutritional value of milk is pracâ€" tically unchanged by properly conductâ€" ed pasteurization, while Wiison, Minett and Carling in the Journal of Hygiene, publish their findings of carefully conâ€" trclled chservations showing that the nutritive va‘ue of pasteurized milk for calves is equal to that of raw milk. There has been considerable controverâ€" sy for years as to the effects of pasâ€" teurizatisn on the nutritive value of mill:. Does Pasteurizing Less Value of Mllk" Th» stock argument of the opponent of pasteurization, whether or not he knows anyth‘ns about the subject, is that the process destroys the vitamin C. It has long been corsidered that the content of vitamin C, (the agent conâ€" cerned with the prevention of scurvy), was low and that milk is an unimportâ€" ant source of vitamin C in the diet.

A couple of citizens of Cornwall d"clded to play a practical joke on a friend by removing his movorcar from its parking place and driving it several b:cks, leaving the owner the task of _finding it. Unfortunately, instead of ‘-:.heir friend‘s car, it was another that gresem'bled it greatly. The owner reâ€" ported to the police that the car was stolen. Three constables started on a _search and found it with the two wouldâ€" be jokers still in it. They wore arrestâ€" »d and brought before the magistrate, who told the accused that they had ipartici;:):au;ed in the kind of joke that might have cost them each a year in : jail, if the police had decided to charge bhem with theft of a car. However, the emplanation caused the charge to be reduced to one of taking a car without ‘the consent of the owner. The penalty ‘imposed was a fine of $10 each with Bronson, Reels Pasteurization causes no appreciable injury to the nutritional value of milk, and i; must be remembered that the dangers of raw milk in transmitting disease far outweigh any minor objecâ€" ‘rions to careful and efficient pasteurâ€" ization. vitamin C in the diet.

Ten years ago the pouce a call to the Mattagami section, said they were mystified and alarmed by a man masquerading as a woman A trip to the district from which the complaint was sent resulted in the arâ€" rest of a jlocal man who was past the age of dresses by some forty years. George was just standing on Wilcox street. He was a sight for any kind bf eyes, sore or otherwise. He had on the sweetest little tight straw hat of the turban variety that fitted him like a cap on a beer bottle. He wore a short skirt of dark material beneath a lady‘s coat of fashionable design. Over his own manlike trousers he had pulled on a pair of lady‘s long white stockings. Then above and beyond all, there was George‘s thick and flowing moustache, which loomed up like a garage in a wreck. % An alarm of fire from the ho>doo tox, Nia. 13, ten years ago, attracted a bizg crowc in a few minutes. The damage done was less than $5000, but without the prompt and effective work of the fire brigade, and with any wind blowing, the results might have been more serious. The fire was in the light frame structure cccupied downstairs by the Goldfield Drug Co. and the Mercier Remnant and Fancy Goods Store, and upstairs by the Pioneer Club. The fire started upstairs, ‘but whether in the Piofeer Club rooms or on the landing cutside was no‘ evident. The regular meeting of the town council, ten years ago, was not held, owing to a lack of a quorum, Councilâ€" lors Carson and Pritchard and Mayor Longmore being theâ€"cnly members preâ€" sent. However, the meeting was held on the following day, a Tuesday, and many matters of more or less routine type dealt with in a prompt and busiâ€" nesslike way by the council. ' Ten years ago Mr. W. D. Pearce‘s car in the Crusade bore among its leâ€" gends, "Buy Dome Stock; It‘s a Winâ€" 4@"!"" And the stock went up $2.00 a share. ‘"That was a great tip you put over your thirteenâ€"yearâ€"old car," a Ssouthern Ontario man said to . Mr. Pearce afterwards. "We‘re no bluffers in the North! We have the goods and you know it!" was the reply from the oldâ€"timer from South Porcupine. Ten years ago the Silver Centre baseball team won the championship of the Temiskaming Baseball League and the R. A. McInnis trophy for the second season. The MciIntyre team of Schuâ€" macher, winners of the northern group, wen‘st to Cobalt for the finals, and the Silver Centre team sprang a surprise, winning three straight games. Even the unfavourable weather ten years ago failed to completely spoil the Porcupine Fair at Golden City, though certainly the event deserved a much better day. Despite the rain there was a good crowd in attendance, especially towards evening, a number gathering by motor cars and otherâ€" wise from Timmins, Schumacher and South Porcupine. Wednesday, Sept. 7th, 1927, was reâ€" gistered as Quebec, Hydro and Farmer‘s Day at the Canadian National Exhiâ€" bition, but it really turned out to ‘be Northern Ontario Day. The Toronto newspapers pointed out that the Cruâ€" saders from the North made it their day, and so it was only appropriate that the speeches at the directors‘ luncheon that day should represent Northern Ontario chiefly. The luncheon was attended by a great ‘body of the Northern Ontario . Crusaders. The speakers for the cccasion were: C. A. McGrath, chairman of the Ontario Hydroâ€"Electric Commission; Hon. W. Finlayson, Minister of Lands and Forâ€" ests:; and Joseph A. Bradette, M.P. for Ncrth Temiskaming. Ten vears ago, the body cf a man, found dead in front of 6242 Elizabeth stroeet west, Detroit, was identified as that of Simcoe Green, 58â€"yearâ€"old baâ€" chelor, prospector and iminer of Cobalt, From Iroquois Faills ten years ago came the story illustrating the ingratiâ€" tude of some people for kindness shown them. A Ford car was stalled by the side of the road near Val Gagne, when an Iroquois Falls car came along. The Ten years ago there was the followâ€" ing note in The Advance:â€""All will be pleased to know that Mr. L. Macâ€" Lachlan, chief of police of the town of Timmins, continues to make exâ€" cellent progress to complete recovery of health. Last week he was sufficientâ€" ly recovered to be out, after an attack of typhoid fever, ‘but had the further illâ€"fortune to step on a board that had a nail in it. The nail entered his foot and it was feared that this might reâ€" tard his recovery to some extent. Howâ€" ever, the injury has not proved serious, and his health generally continues to improve, so that it is expected that it will not be long before he will be able to be back on duty again." From data in the Poronpine was well known for his honesty and When the case came up for trial the peop.e in the «ar were not even sure if the grips had been packed into the tar when they left Kirklard Lake. ‘Ten years ago, Mike Korendich met death while at work at the MciIntyre Mine, being killed by being struck on the head by a piece of falling rock. The coroner‘s enquiry showed that death resulted from the accident. Mr. Willis Hawse. of 89 Preston streei, had the misfortune to break his leg ten years ago when a piece of maâ€" chinery fell against it while he was at work at the Sand Claims, near town. He was hurried to the hospital, and every possible attention and skill given, but it was found imperative to ampuâ€" tate ‘the leg above the knee. Ten years ago the excavating on th« new post office building for Schumachâ€" er was finished and work was well unâ€" der way. The Northern Ontario Crusade ten years ago ‘resulted in an immense amount of publicity for the North Land. Practically every newspaper in the South had special reference to the event. The twentyâ€"{ifth anniversary of the T. N. O. Railway was celebrated at North Bay ten years ago, Hon. G. Howâ€" ard Ferguson, Premier of Ontario, and Mrs. Ferguson, being the guests of the city ard the railway {cr the occasion. The addresses by the Premier were outâ€" standing ones and were the great feaâ€" tures of the occasion. Ten years ago the premier honours of the inspeci:orate came to South Porâ€" cupine: Public School. A spzecial examâ€" ination in history. relating more parâ€" ticularly to Confederation, was given the pupils of ~fourth classes throughout the Dominion, the date for the Ontario tests ‘being June 3rd. This paper was set by ‘the Department of Education, aided, it is thought, by the Confederation Association of Ontario, and was sent in sealed envelopes to the principals throughout the province, to be opened by them before their pupils on the morning of June 3rd, for the pupils to answer. A silver medal was the highest of four prizes, and was won by Master Earl Hamilton, of South Porcupine. Ten years ago the Tisdale Township Council met in the council chambers, and among the matters dealt with was a request for the right to run buses to Dome and other mines. Ten years ago word was received here from the headquarters of the St. John Ambulance Brigade that Timmins Amâ€" bulance Brigade No. 1 had tied with the Dome for second placte in the competiâ€" tion for the Geo. Wright trophy for Ontario mines. First place was won by the O‘Brien Mine team of Cobalt. Ther2:was a large attendance at the Kiwanis Club lunch at the Empire Hoâ€" tel ten years ago and the proceedings of the meeting were of very special interest. Mr. Cecil George, of Orillia, the District Governor of Kiwanis, was present for the occasion ard made a rousing address, urging the largest posâ€" sible attendance at the Distret Conâ€" vention at London, Ont., on Oct. 3rd and 4th, of the year 1927, and a general following out all the year round of the true spirit of Kiwanis. Among the locals of ten years ago were:â€""Mrs. C. Bothwell, of Toronto, is visiting friends in town this week." "Bornâ€"In Timmins, Ont., on Monday, Sept. 12th, 1927, to Mr. and Mrs. N.

"Mr. and Mrs. Bound mctcred to Cobalt last week, returning on Tuesday after visiting Latchford, Hound Chutes, Silver Cen‘tre, Ville Marie, agnd other points." ‘"Mr. A. F.

The jewelry business is thriving, men are wearing jeweled tieâ€"pins, and everything from teapots to earâ€"rings is more ornate and luxurious than it has been for thirty years, according to those attending the annual fair of the Canadian Jewelers‘ Association at the Rcyal York Hotel, Toronto. The riches which will deck homes and people this winter are spread through 102 display rooms of manufacâ€" turers and importers on two of the hotel floors and are guarded by almost as many private and city police and plainâ€" clcthesmen as there are rooms. The displays are valued somewhere around half a million dollars, although one display of pearls alone is claimed by the exhibitor to represent retaill prices mounting to a half million. Elegance not seen since the end of the Victorian era is represented in the displays. Silver tableware, hollow and flat, and â€"glass and jewelry all go in for delicacy of craftsmanship, detail and richness of design. Your flatware may be very ornate, or very simple with touches of very fine workmanship. The hollowâ€"ware tends to the period, with Sheffield reproductions at the peak, and whether it is a vase or a ring you buy, it should look like something none but a Cellini would be satisfied with. Jewelers would not estimate exactly what increase in business they expectâ€" ed this winter, but they declared they losoked forward to the best in twenty years. The big movement, they said, was in the betterâ€"class goods, the famâ€" ily heirloom type of business whether in precious stones or household silver. One display showed a $50,000 "wild" pearl, and scores of cultured pearl necklaces ranging from $3,000 to $4,000 each. Another displays howed a $10,000 jeweled watch, and another had a host of antiqueâ€"English silver, including Sheffield, sterling and Victorian pieces dating back to 1757.. Canadian silverâ€" smiths showed reproductions of period silver, and combinations of the simple and ornate to blend the "moderne" with the elegance of the past. Even silver mugs for baby, and his first spoon and knife and fork, show new detail of craftsmanship and line. a lccal merchant, and an equally enâ€" thusiastic Conservative. Mr. Norris was in the habit of making purchases weekly at Mr. Scott‘s store. An elecâ€" tion contest was in progress. Instead of giving the usual order Mr. Norris purchased four times the regular quanâ€" tity. Ask why the great increase he replied: "Jim, you and I are good friends, I want the friendship to conâ€" tinue. If I come in here during the next three weeks you‘ll be talking some of this Tory stuff. get mad and (St. Mary‘s Journalâ€"Argus) We read with much interest about Hon. Earl Rowe having three flat tires while travelling by automobile on the Hepburn highway enroute to address a political meeting at Arnpricr. After the 'Oct.ober,elect.ion Mr. Rowe will find he had a blowâ€"out in all four tires, inâ€" cluding the spare. And the Hon. Mitch is running on two weak cylinders, but the expert Likeral mechanics will soon fix those, and he will be running smoothly on all six, ere long. (From Brampton Conservator) Nt long before his death the late Hon. Thomas Norris, a former premier of Maritoba, told us the following story. Mr. Norris was a native of Peel. His father, who was an ardent Liberal, was a clese friend of the late James Scott, Flat Tires on the Roads _ _ and in Political Affairs The writer was en route to a political meeting in the North Country a few years ago and had four flat tires beâ€" tween North Bay and Timmins on the Ferguson highway, so Mitch, the Tories have nsoth‘ng on you.

Which gives one the idea that in those days party feeling ran as high as it does today. Moral: If you fear a break in old friendships order a month‘s supply of provisions as soon as the writs are issued., stay at home and be at peace with all parties.
