REVERT TO FEBRUARY FOR POTATO CEILING Farmers and retailers selling poâ€" tatoes are reminded by Wartime Prices and Trade Board officials their their prices today must not exceed the maximum price charged in that week from Februâ€" He points out that the increase in the demand of the active muscle for more oxygen in the blood coming to them makes a person breathe more rapidly and more decply, thereby taking more air into the lungs‘ and using more lung alvcoli and at the same time causing a greater‘ flow through the capillaries in their walls. This increased expansionj of the lung tissue and increased functional activity of its substance brings about an improvement in the quality of the lung structure. ‘ Combined with adequate rest, physical exercise, emphasizes Dr. Ryerson, benefits every part of the human body. It also stimulates the brain, keeping the budy and mind as a total unity. Its purpose is physical at first, but subsequently (by harnessing, controlling and cultiâ€" vating the body) it can awaken and discipline the human mind and spirit. "The practice of some people," he says, "of never walking upstairs or hurrying or participating in any form of physical exercise with the object of conserving the heart, is not a justifiable one, for the lack of any increase in the blood flow to its muscular wall is more apt to lead to its weakness and possible disaster than the habit of making these efforts periodically as a means of maintaining the quality of the heart muscle in good condition." Dr. Ryerson goes on to say that at rest, with a heart rate of 70 a minute, the total blood in the body flows through the heart arteries, capillaries, veins and back to the heart, in about 100 seconds. During vigorous exercise, the blood completes this cycle in about 20 seconds, with the result that the cells of all the organs and tissues of the body have blood brought to them in their capillaries five times as often during exercise as during rest, in consequence of which, the quality of the cell‘s structure is made better and the efficieny of their function isl improved. | PAGE TWO "Balance exercise with rest for good health" says Dr. Stanley Ryerson in the current issue of Health, published by the Health League of Canada. His article entitled "Exercise for Health" declares that physical activity in the form of games and sports, gymnastics, swimâ€" ming, dancing and in a milder form, in walking and Hiking, is a most valuable way of enabling a person to keep healthy or to regain his health. y ‘ THE WATERLOO CHRONICLE fn spite of the fact that in some Canadian cities butter supilies recently have not heen sufficient to meet the greatly increased demands, the situation does not constitute an cmergency; nor is it as serious as some people seem to think. There are two main causes for these temporary and local shortages: For the past year we have been consistently using 10% to 15% more butter than in normal timesâ€" with consequent disturbance to the distribution of our butter supplies. Many people have been buying more butter than they currently need. It is unpatriotic and unnecessary for housewives to rush out to beat their neighâ€" bours to the nearest grocery store. Butter will not be rationed to meet the present situation. Butter production is actually above normal for this time of year. The Board itself is “ow‘To SAYE BUTTER taking special action which it is believed will AT MEALâ€"TIME _ _ _ . _ speedily restore normal supplies in retail stores. The limited nature of the present shortage is shown by the fact that if every home would reduce its consumption of butter by only one ounce per person per week (for the average home this means a quarter of a pound a week)â€"or if we reduced our national consumption to the peacetime rateâ€"the shortage would soon disappear.

They use what is known as the snowball x:tem to summon the members, t is each man has to call four others. In this way all the nembers are very quickly notified. As soon as all casualties are reâ€" moved, the first thing is to set up a main office known as the A.RP. Liaison office, which keeps in close touch with everything that is goâ€" ing on. In this case, the office of the building made an ideal locaâ€" tion, but where such a room is not available, the nearest suitable place is takep. The office work is broken down so that there is a secâ€" tion looking after each activity.

Therefore‘ |provision has been made in every |community in England to have| plenty of water in storage. § i Thousands of basements . of {buildings that have been destroyed ]arc béing used for this purpose. ‘These basements have been cleanâ€"| â€"ed out, cemented on the walls and bottom so that they will hold and 'have been filled with water.

That is to say, much damage was caused by fires which got out of hand beâ€" cause there, were not enough proâ€" perly trained fire fighters to deal with the emergency when it arose. _ While all other direction signs in England are entirely lacking even the smallest community has no end of signs indicating where the warden lives or can be found, where static water is stored, where air raid shelters are located, and the location of stirrup pumps. Probably there are more signs in Fngland reading "Stirrup Pump here" than any other. Large signs are posted indicating | where static water is to be found.‘ This is necessary so that in the| excitement and confusion of an! emergency the nearest storage of| water is located without delay. } Early Efforts Important. In addition to "\;v}irking hard at regular war work, nearly every man in England has to take his share in Civil Defence work. Women Workers. While we were in England, Mr. Herbert Mortison issued an appeal‘ for a very large number of women | to volunteer for work as fire watchers. This means night work patrolling buildings, climbing on‘ roofs and other hard work. There‘ was a great deal of criticism of this appeal because it was felt that it was not fit work for women, that‘ it was too hard and too dangerous.| The answer to this criticism was| that twice as many women volunâ€" teered for this work than wnfl asked for. When you look over the roofs of Fnglish cities, the first thing that strikes you are chimney pots.| Every building has a battery of | anywhere up to a dozen or more | of these pots The roofs are genâ€" erally more cut up with all kinds* of turrets than is the case in Canâ€" ada, and with these chimney pots‘ it makes the roofs hard to, get at and hard to patrol Ladders are usually kept on them so that any part of the roof can be quickly reached. This work is most imâ€" portant during raids, and the km- per control of incendiaries on these roofs just means the difference beâ€" tween damage and staggering lossâ€" Sabotage has been ‘surprisingly little, so we were informed, and theft or taking advantgae of anâ€" other‘s misfortune is practically unkown. | Quick communication is necesâ€" sary as the telephones might very possibly be put out of action. Therefore a system of messengers must be provided for.. _ The studies made of this work and its results are of great benefit to others. _ The organization known in Canâ€" ada as Civilian Protection Comâ€" mittee, or Air Raid Precaution or ARP. is now called "Civil Deâ€" fence" in England and is considerâ€" ed most important work. As Mr. Morrison told us, it is now a major act of war, so local authority is not enough. If a house can be repaired, easiâ€" 1y, or if temporary repairs will enâ€" able it to be used, the cost is someâ€" times allowed, but this will be deâ€" ducted from any future settlement. One essential thing is that warâ€"| dens know all the people in their territory and that they account for‘ them to make sure that nobody is missing. Even by the time we got there, workers were already preparing to make repairs, and were chipping out the remains of broken winâ€" dows, and window glass was arâ€" riving to replace necessary winâ€" dows. It will be seen that many of these details require trained men, and it was not surprising to find that our guide in private life was a building contractor. â€" Trained Workers Required. _ _In the courtyard were a number of men sweepi:‘f the grass. One of our party called attention to them remarking that there was an exâ€" ample of typical British efficiency, to which our guide replied, "That is something that is absolutely necessary. Those men ‘have alâ€" ready recovered two valuable rings and a cigarette case." We were told that the action of a bomb is about as unpredictable as that of Another important detail which must be carried out at once, is to test. the wqfils and buildings to make sure that they will not fall on workers. routine. On the street in front of the building was a canteen truck which bore on its sides a sign showing that it had been 'E"r:a:t- ed to the Lord Mayor‘s by Ford Victoria, Southern Rhodesia. about as unpredictable as that of a stroke of lightning, and frequentâ€" ly the explosion will suck all small articles right out of a building. _ contractors and â€" workmen â€" are called to start work without delay. Otherwise the debris is more or less cleaned up and replacement pustponed until after the war.

At the same time it is believed that before long Canada will have Cerman bombs dropping on her, that at the same time that Gerâ€" many is tooling up for heavier raids on England that she is makâ€" ing preparations to send planes cnpable of longer cruising range that will enable her to bomb Ameâ€" r.ca. Therefore we should take steps to prepare for such eventualities, we should take a lesson from Engâ€" land‘s experiences and organize a most efficient CPC. Authorities however, hold a difâ€" ferent view. They are warning the people that increased heavier raids are not only possible but very piobable. Some authorities say that the recent months have only been a lull in which Germany has been tooling up in order to unâ€" lcase heavier bombs on England more after the block busting type. The people of England now seem to think that the worst is over, that such raids cannot hapâ€" pen again. They are encouraged in this belief by the fact that the defences are so much better than they were, that there are more and Every able bodied man available and every piece of fire fighting equipment which could be brought to London was engaged in trying to overcome the flames. I am told ty people who were there that mien worked until they dropped from exhaustion, and that enginâ€" eers ran until their bearings were burnt out. I have even heard it scid that if the German Raiders had come back one more succeedâ€" ing night, the whole city would have gone as the men and equipâ€" ment could not have carried on any longer. this appeal, "Without question the ‘ueamt material treasure in Brisâ€" tol is St Mary Redcliffe Church. 1 now auslk !.hle women oliBnl.":ln: they will help to guard it fire.

Some say that the reason there bave been so many churches deâ€" stroyed in England is due to the difficulty in protecting these roofs from incendiaries.
