The meeting was informed that up to th»r present time cod liver oil had been distributed to children of preâ€"school age only in the case of tuberculosis in the family.

G. Wells only in relation to what they have to say about Russia. Not to their previous life‘s work, as Mr. Sayers now infers in his statement, "Both these illustriâ€" ous intellectuals had established themâ€" selves long before they came to the deâ€" fence of Russia." The writer would be more interested to learn of the approximate number of hours, days or weeks that Bernard Shaw and H. G. Wells spent in Russia; travelling, observing and experiencing to acquire their information, than about the fact they did visit it. Mr. Sayers believes I insinuate "that Wells and Shaw are in the pay of Mosâ€" cow." For Mr. Sayers‘ information and deduction here is a copy of Bernard Shaw‘s words to the London reporter during the interview. Reporter‘s quesâ€" tion, in part:â€""Is it true that an artiâ€" cle you wrote in Russia was peddled cle you wrote in Russia was peddled through Fleet Street and that no newsâ€" paper would publish it?" Mr. Shaw‘s reply:â€"‘"I don‘t know. All I can tell youâ€"not that it is any business (of yours, by the wayâ€"is that I got a dolâ€" lar a word for everything I wrote about Russia." Perfectly true Mr. Sayers may be in his statement ‘"neither Wells nor Shaw ever gave any indication of any desire to move to Moscow," and, for a very good reason probably. The comâ€" munistic economicâ€"financial setâ€"up in Russia and the large annual incomes (as mentioned in my former letter, amounts were published in newspapers several years ago) of these two gentleâ€" men have no correlationâ€"one with the other. They are on the opposite side of the fence, so to speak. They be on the British Democratic side of the fence where they can use their incomes} where they are free from the stringent restricted control of the communistic system on the other side of the fence. One would be justifiecd here in asking the question if a person can serve two croosing economicâ€"financial setâ€"upsâ€" in mind, body and soul? Here is probâ€" ably a space for the compound word "doubleâ€"cross" which Mr. Sayers uses when he refers to the international sitration. There is a moral here with resultant repercussions to the princiâ€" ples involved. Men like Mr. Shaw are free on both sides of the fence to use their bellicose beliefs. Butâ€"the vitriâ€" olicâ€"like disapproval of most Britishers throughout the Empire towards comâ€" munism is pronounced. Mr. W. Stewart Replies to Letter of Marvyn Savers. The Bible, Mr. Sayers, "plays a very small part in world affairs." This canâ€" not make the teachings of the Bible any the less valuable. Particularly is this so if applied to the use for which I mentioned in my former letter; that of studying, among all its other conâ€" tents, "The Sermon on the Mount," so as to increase social understanding and requirements of life. The contents of nations‘ law books (and they are less accurate than the contents of the Bible) are not reduced in their tcach; inz value nor in actual meaning of the purpose they serve, simply because criminals, any of us, may violate the laws embodied within. Increasing numbers of violations of nations‘ laws means increased consultations of naâ€" tions‘ law books. Thus can it be also nationally and internationally, in terims of the Bible, through the transition from manâ€"made laws to the teachings in ‘"The ‘Sermon on the Mount." Surely the Bible is not subordinate to the almost derelict law books of nations; so far as social unâ€" derstanding is concerned. We are just asleep at the switch of social reform. Mr, Sayers alludes to Canada exportâ€" ing various metals which can be used in the manufacture of munitions of war. He does so with a fiavoured hint of his personal objections to such exâ€" ports. Personally the writer considers war, in all its phases, as a manâ€"madeâ€" hell on ecarth. Why did Mr. Sayers not view with equal concern Canada‘s exâ€" The laundry protects your health too.
