D, Tresidder, repr WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 3, 1927 THE PRINCE OF WALES Canaua's affectionate welcome to the Prince of Wales on his present visit, together with its loyal and friendly reception of Prince George and Premier and Mrs, Baldwin, is touched with deeper significance than is at once apparent, For, with regard to the Prince of Wales, Can- ada not only welcomes its future King who has go happily identified himself with the Domin- ion's life and thought, but also hails the Em- pire's greatest ambassador, It is not quite seven years since the Prince first came to Canada, still blushing in boyish diffidence 'at the honors paid him and at the interest shown in his royal self, Since then the Prince has changed from a Personage into a Personality, No one ever re- marks now: "lI guess his secretary writes his speeches," Reports of his addresses carry their own authenticity, stamped with the heraldry of the Principality's three royal feathers, but only as a background his proved motto: "I serve," The Prince of Wales has rendered incalcuable service to the Empire in recent years, Against his disarming personality the lowering political hostility of South Africa dissolved into the sun- shine of a popular welcome, Savage chiefs of Central Africa were not proof against his vivid humanity, The languor of the East was drop- ped like an awkward cloak when the Emperor of India's eldest son went by, He comes back to Canada as to his own peo- ple, to receive a welcome that royalty alone cannot earn, that loyalty alone cannot give, "WHERE DID THAT ONE GO?" The news that Captain Bruce Bairnsfather was in Oshawa on Saturday will be received with mixed emotions by most ex-service men of the C.E,F, For along with the vicarious pleasure of knowing that he was here goes the regret that so few saw him, the incomparable creator of Old Bill, Bert, Alf, and many other worthies whom most veterans feel they met in the flesh "Somewhere in France," Captain Bairnsfather's claim to immortality is that he is the first of men to make real mud pies. He took the ooze of Flanders, stirred it with a few Jack Johnsons, added a dash of de- viltry, a pinch of fun, and--he is really a hu- morist--a hint of tears, and the result was something as unique as it was delectable, Technically a cartoonist, yet Captain Bairns- father's sketches found a section all their own in the grim galleries of war art. It was signi- ficant that he had no imitators, Artists not at the Front during the war could not, of course, have drawn such living pictures, however ex- aggerated, of the things that made up trench life, Artists that were at the Front did not have Captain Bairnsfather's divine endowment of laughter at those extremely practical jokes --battle, murder and sudden death. One could, critic-wise, say that the creator of Old Bill was distinguished for his "restraint" and imagine him a master of all sorts of subtle irony and similar clap-trap. It is likely that his success was due but to one thing--himself, and that he took neither himself nor anyone else very seriously. Warm good wishes from those that laughed with- him at the Comedy of Flanders go with Captain Bairnsfather in his venture into moy- ing pictures. If he can put the living thing into them that he put into his war-time car- toons his success is assured. 4 INVISIBLE ENEMIES Ancient man thought he had nothing to fear but the mammoth with its huge tusks, the great bear, other ferocious animals, other men and the evil spirits. He did not suspect that his: most deadly enemies were creatures so small that millions of them could lie, invisible, on the palm of his hand. Modern man recognizes in the disease germ his greatest enemy; an enemy that daily des- troys thousands of human lives; a foe that in some cases still proves unconquerable by man Allied with the germ against mankind is the insect. Humanity would be safe from many of the most dreaded diseases if there were no in- sects to carry them from their breeding grounds to the blood of man. The fly, in its power of destruction, outranks the elephant. Invisible disease germs, of which millions can be carried on the foot of one flv, \ N---- have the power to wipe out nations. One dis- ease, the "black death," five hundred years ago, killed more than one half of the population of England, A similar plague twice decimated the popuation of Italy. The Orient still suffers from visitations of plagues. Thousands of square miles of Africa are made uninhabitable to man by the deadly power of a little creature called the tse-tse fly. It is the carrier of the germ that causes sleeping sick- ness, a disease that Sestioys man and his dom- estic animals, But man is slowly conquering these dread enemies, He is swatting the fly, draining the swamps without which the mosquito cannot propagate, destroying other germ carriers and using his knowledge of medicine and chemistry to make himself immune from destructive bac- teria. DEFINITIONS One of the amusement: of the day is to try to produce definitions which are so acriking that they stick in the memory without con- scious effort. For instance, the other day we were given a new definition of a specialist which indicates, in exaggerated form, of course, the procedure followed by one who becomes a spe- cialist, A boy enters school and studies all the subjects on the curriculum, When he makes his way well up in high school he develops a preference for, let, us, say, science and he es- chews classics, mederns, mathematics, English, ete, In university he specializes in science but soon develops a speaial liking for, perhaps, bo- tany, and will not. claim much, knowledge of any other branch of science, |, Then he finds that phanerogamic botany is of more interest to him than any, other sort; next, he coneen- trates on some pne family of phanerogams with an unpronounceable name; and, finally, he be- comes an international authority em just one sort of plant, Hence, the definition: "A speciar list is one who knows more and more about less and less until he knows everything about nothing," A quiet, meek-faced nun, with a twinkle of Irish humour in her eyes, gave us another de- finition, a day or two ago, Said she, "An, op- timist is one who makes lemonade of the lem- ons that are handed to him," How is that for an original definition? We were not aware that a nun would know the slang meaning of "lem- on," But, in our opinion, this one hit upon a definition that is very much to the point, Now you try one, THE FLOWING GOLD MINE Estimates published yesterday of the value of the tourist traffic in Canada for 1927 carries a message of deep importance to the public in general and to business men in particular, That the current season's tourist traffic total will be more than $300,000,000 for all Canada means that Ontario's share will be at least half as much--an average of nearly $50 for each man, woman and child living in the province, The release of such enormous sums into the streams of commerce is already in evidence, and the effect will be felt for months after the highways, which now swarm with automobiles carrying license plates from the various States, are given over to winter traffic, Higher buying power in urban and suburban areas will have its effect on production by which the barometer of employment rises or falls. That there will be much less unemploy- ment during the coming winter will be one of the happier results of this year's great influx of visitors. It was officially estimated that the 1926 tourist traffic was only a little less than half the value of Canada's wheat crop in that year, and equal to the combined output of its mines. Clearly, the tourist industry bears compari- son with mines, for it itself a flowing stream of coined gold which enriches the urban and rural communities that are connected by Cana- dian highways. Bit of Verse "STONE WALLS DO NOT A PRISON MAKE" To A. Barry. The heart that roams o'er Wentworth Is truly quite as free To see the beauty of the land As if the eyes did see. The eyes may see the stark white walls, The heart may see the fields; The eyes the soul has see it all, To them is all revealed. You see the orchards and the flowers, The fields, the streamlets clear; The birds' sweet singing in the morn In magic notes you hear. Sunrise and sunset pictures all Are planted in your mind, The moonlight in the woodland still-- All these you still can find. But oh, the sadness, oh the loss To those who mever knew Pictures of Nature's merry mood, Of Summer's happy hue. --M. E. Woods. WHAT OTHERS SAY POLICE NoT THANKED (Detroit News) The policeman is about the last ser- vant to whom anyone expresses gras titude. Summarizing the work of his force, Captain Parker says: "They have done their best, yet during the whole year not a man has received a single note of thanks, of commendation or of encouragement from any human being, nor even a kind word to make the task easier." Come to think of it, who does thank the policeman ? OVERCLOTHED ( CHILDREN (London Daily Telegraph) Hampshire school medical officer reports that he has been struck by the fact that it is far more common to find children who have on too many garments rather than too few. This was particularly the case as applied to the zhest, where it was not hy any means uncommon to find up to ten layers of clothes, the foundation next to the skin being a layer of some sort of medicated wool. The reasoning of parents who fell inta thls error appeared to be tha® they know the child was liable to take cold, which, they said, set tled on the chest, and they thought they were protecting the best by pil- ing on clothes In that region. Few clothes and good should be the mot to of the parents in this matter, and those clothes should be evenly distributed over the body, The chest was not the most vulnerable part, and plling on garments there only defeated the desired object, CANADA'S TANK, (Henri Bourassa in Le Devoir) If the imperialists of Britain and of Canada took the trouble to re- flect a moment on the particular sit- nation of Canada, its responsibili- ties, which have no equal in the res! of the Empire, they would not he long before they appreciated that the only effective contribution which Ca- nadians can make to the solidifica- tion of the Empire is to take proper care of their own territory, to hring together the desperate element: therein and, if possible, to sav, if from the power of ahsorption, eco nomic at first and afterwards poll tical, of thelr powerful neighbors To turn the Canadian people aside from this fundamental and urgent task, which calls for all the effort of the present geeration and of many generations to come, in orde to make it assume an ever-growin: portion of the burdens of Empire It to condemn Canada to extinction ano the Empire to amputation. They had better think of this before it ir too late, That Body of Pours Be Jones W, Barton, MA (Registered in Accordance with the Copyright Act) BORN TIRED Perhaps you know a seems tired all the time. Sometime: he will forget this and be "up in the clouds," and in a few minutes | down in the "dumps" again, More [(requently it is a womal and she seems to he "irritably tir ed" most of the time. Now there is nothing wrong wit) being tired. If you do a reasonabl amount of physical or mental work you are hound to get tired and you are entitled to rest, However, these tired all the time, neurathenics, and called neurasthenia. A definition of neurasthenia would simply be "tired all the time." Someone has said that » "neurasthenic is born, not made." He has always been a meurathenic more or less. If his trouble came on suddenly when he was formerly normal, it probably is not neuras- thenia. He will always show insta- bility or irritability, easy fatigue extremes of exaltation and depres- sion, lack of energy, and so forth. Now the difference between the or dinary tired person and the neaur- asthenic is that the meurasthenic al- ways has the feeling, the knowledge that he fis tired, and this idea be- comes fixed in his mind, whereas the ordinary tired person often doesn' know he js tired. However, the war taught us that all neurasthenics are mot born, but some have been made by trial and stress of circum- stances. That severe emotional dis. turbances can make a neurastheuie. Further, some of these cases of neurastijenia have heen found to have some underlying condition which was unknown to the patiem! or his physician, and the removal or correction of this condition has srought about a cure. The treat- ment is usmally rest, but this can he overdone amd the patient hospi talized. The important method of treatl- {meng is by suggestion. It should be remembered that a person who believes himself to be tired, to be sick, is in a semse just as tired or sick as he thinks he 'i¢ Therefore, although he should he given rest periods, he should he en- couraged to work mentally and physically and it can thus be dem- onstrated to him gradually that he is capable of doing a man's work, if A woman, a woman's work im the world. Treating a meurasthemic is a 4Aif- ficult job, but with the knowledge | that there is no organic trouble, the afamily and the family physician {may with sympathy, and ret firm- chap whe folks that arc are now called their trouble is Fuses, bring about a cure.
