Statesman calls on ratepayers to early cast about for competent business men to interest themâ€" selves in the matter of serving on councils. "It is time for yom men to come forward.

The best way to raise the stanâ€" dard of living in this country and provide for the welfare of the chilâ€" dren is to so order the national economy that there may be steady jobs at decent wage for all.

To set the pace in a way of life that wins others to it is the only way to find peace in life and to make peace in the world." At Truro, N.S., The News has a story about the famous Debert military camp going to ruin with Future Canadians: ‘"There is no future for a child who comes into the world to unwanting parents.

W. McHenry of the University of Toronto said in an address at a nutrition meeting sponsored by the Health League of Canada here. He added, however, that there is evidence that the food habits of many Canadians need to be improved and that the available foods are not being properly used. "The two main causes for maAlâ€" nutrition in Canada are ignorance and indifference," said Dr. McHenâ€" ry who is Professor of Public Health Nutrition at the university‘s School of H{giene. "These two causes can most â€" effectively wiped out by the adequate trainâ€" ing of children in healthful living." He said food habits are formed in childhood and persist through life with little change in most peoâ€" ple. Firmly entrenched habits were difficult to change and it was difficult to arouse pe:g:e sufficientâ€" ly to cause them to nge. "Our main hope of improving nuâ€" tritional conditions is proper trainâ€" ing of children with regard to food habits and other aspects of health," Dr. McHenry said. ‘"We need to inâ€" stil in children a liking for the foods which are good for them and to cause that liking to be enâ€" trenched as a habit." He said, however, that nutritionâ€" al conditions in Canada are suffiâ€" ciently good that only one deficienâ€" cy disease, goitre, occurs with any frequency among adults. Two deâ€" ficiency conditions, rickets and scurvy, are occasionally found in ‘babies. In regard to goitreâ€"caused by lack of iodineâ€"he pointed out that iodized salt is the most practical method of obtaining iodine. As for overweight, Dr. McHenry said he includes obesity under malnutriâ€" tion. Use of industrial chemicals and solvents as hand cleansers is danâ€" gerous and may cause dermatitis, warn industrial health authorities in the Department of National Bealth and Welfare. Declaring that the safest cleanser for the skin is warm water and a mild soap, the experts list as possibly injurious such commonly used substances as raptha, acetone, gasoline, kerosene, benzine and various other acids and alkalis. They also advice against the tooâ€" frequent use of abrasive soaps and stiff hand brushes for removing paint and other stubborn stains. These skinâ€"irritants are bound to do harm. Rather, they recommend SKIN CLEANSERS "It‘s especially designed for Quonset huts‘" PREâ€"MARRIAGE TESTS _ TO COMBAT VD SPREAD In view of the seriousness of the venerealâ€"disease situation in Canâ€" ada, the Health League of Canade, always a leader in the antiâ€"VD fight, is intensifying its efforts to gain popular support for legislation calling for compulsory premarital blood tests for syphilis. _ _ _ _ Such legislation already is in efâ€" fect in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Maâ€" nitoba and Prince Edward Island. British Columbia has enacted legisâ€" lation, but has not yet put it into effect. In 1945, roundly 15,000 cases of syphilis and 25,000 cases of gonorâ€" rhea were reported in Canada by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. The total represented a five pet cent increase over the 1944 comâ€" bined figures, and 100 per cent above the 1940 total. During the first six months of 1946, the reported 21,933 cases of VD represented an 18.31 per cent increase over the corresponding ‘pe'flod in 1945.

Blood testing is one simple, effective medical measure for helping to stop the raâ€" pid spread to innocent persons, speâ€" cifically the marriage partner and the unborn child, of much already existing infection. And, as health authorities claim that only one half of all syphilitics are aware theg are infected, due to unrecogni ty or absence of outward symptoms, such tests would serve the purpose of making these persons aware of their conâ€" dition. proportion of edible meat to the bone and the tenderness of the meat when cooked are interdepenâ€" dent characters required for a chicken to be classed as highâ€"quaâ€" lity, says W.

Detailed information as to | various formulas and methods of | fottening poultry will be furnished cn request by the Dominion Deâ€" partment of Agriculture, Ottawa. Tenderness is governed largely by the age of the bird and the amount of exercise allowed. The amount of meat depends to a cerâ€" tain extent on the breed and meâ€" thods of feeding, while the appearâ€" ance rests with the care and skill applied to the task of killing and dressing. _ _ _ Several new methods of merâ€" chandising such as quick cooling, cut up chicken, the parts being sold separately, and the use of celloâ€" phane to enhance the appearance of the package have helped to stiâ€" mulate sales. Just as the attention of the housewife is drawn to the clean unblemished bird in the show case, so the encouragement to buy again is often due to the satisfacâ€" tion expressed by the members of the household in the meaty quality oth’l:ee m:ed paulmL keeping f t in try keep or the in&?idual farmer is gauged by the activity of the market and every producer contributes a share HIGH QUALITY IMPORTANT IN POULTRY FOR MARKET Rationing of red meats has brought about a ready demand for poultry, still, the difference in the prices paid for Grade A and Grade C, indicates a decided preference for superior quality, and the 5 to 8 cent per lb. difference offered for the high and low grades presents a monetary inducement to the farâ€" mer who can present such a satisâ€" factory articles to the consumer. . throat and lungs are healthy, they will be fitter to fight off such disâ€" pneumonia.

Unwatered whey also gives satisfaction. â€" Oat groats ground not too finely, ground heaâ€" vy oats from whig most of the hulls have been sifted or ground corn are the most efficient of the common grains for fattening purâ€" poses.

More than half the children who stammer or stutter in early school years eventually overcome the handicap. Stammering, which is more common among boys than girls, is the result of a spasm of the muscles associated with speech and indicates some emotional disâ€" turbanceâ€"often traceable to bad environment or faulty training. Lisping is due to tongueâ€"tie, cleft palate, hareâ€"lip or maladjustment of the teeth. It can be helped conâ€" siderably and the cure lies primariâ€" ly in sympathetic cooperation of parents and teachers with medical advisers. LISPING AND STAMMERING One more can be one too many Lines and transformers now serving any one district can carry just so much power. Wherever that capacity is being completely used by present consumers, addition of new customers could be made only at the expense of service to the old, until new materials for extensions are obtainable.

Your Hydro Commission trusts and believes you will recognize the facts; and assist, by your patient coâ€"operation, in the orderly restoration of the prompt service that your Mydro always strives due to everâ€"increasing use of lowâ€"cost Hydro service plus necessarily restricted Mydre construction during and since the war.
