The Suez Canal is still a lifeline to the Fast, and the Egyptians want every Brtish soldier evacuated. The British have been in the Nile and Egyptian area since Great Britain bought 176, 602 of the 400,000 total shares of Suez Canal stock, from Khedive Ismail in 1875, i The There was a financial crisis in Egypt and the British and French united to control the revenues and expenditures: of - the country.

The fact that - the chief interest' seemed to centre around whether or not those papers contained anything scandal- ous regarding either Lincoln's par- entage or his assassination just goes to prove--Oh, anything you like. x kk The Toronto Globe & Mail has been cditorially bemoaning, at some length, the poor showing Canadians make in international sports, and comes to the conclusion that we are becoming a nation of spectators rather than participants.

This encouraging word conieg from an eminent authority, Dr. Wendell M. Stanley of the Rocke- feller Institute for Medical Re- search, Princeton, N.J,, a Nobel Prize winner and a scientist most -unlikely to go-about-making merely wishful forgcasts. : According to Dr. Stanley, the new vaccine, like three others al- ready available, has proven effec- tive in 'mass inoculations of 120,000 persons in a big industrial concern, but' its crowning merit it that, un- like the others, it causes no un- favorable reactions, such as chills, fevers or bodily aches.

Heart discase and diseases of the arteries represent the wearing out of the body. But it can wear a long "time before it becomes threadbare if himself a"man would learn to use with the same - consideration he would give to his' machines. But many a man who would not dream of putting too much pressure in his automobile tires, lays a constant pressure on his heart. * * * Overwork isn't the real answer, at least if it isn't prolonged and stren- uous physical work. Doctors ques- tion whether mental work alone can cause undue fatigue:-J{ it does so it is more likely to be due to emotional tension. The remedy lies in change rather than rest, for the mind is practically inexhaustible. Men don't die of overwork, and a bad heart may do ycoman service for many a long year, if the facts some are known and rudimentary pre- cautions are taken. x rx And the first caution is lefting down the pressure. The work won't kill you, but the drive may. There- fore, relax. It isn't "so hard. It doesn't mean a long sea vovage, or months in bed unless the pressure has been kept too high for too long.
