THURSDAY, APRIL 25, 1929 aa KEEPING THE CITY CLEAN A news story from London, England, tells of a man in that city who was hailed into court and fined for throwing an empty cigarette package on the ground in one of the public parks. This incident serves to show the great stress which is placed over there on observing cleanliness and tidiness, of public places. Were a law of that kind to be enforced in any' city in Canada, in Oshawa, for instance, the police would have a busy time. Yet the desire to have the city looking clean and tidy at all times should be only natural with all who live in it. ; There is nothing which adds so much to the ap- pearance of any community, or of any park, than to have it kept clear of the rubbish which usually fit- ters up the streets and parks. There seems to be a tendeney on the part of many people to throw into the strect or on the ground anything for which they have no further use, regardless of the effect which {heir action may have on the appearance of the place, To Canadians, the law as applied in London in the case mentioned may have been drastic, yet it has been cfiective, for there are few who offend against it. It is all a matter of training. The people over thefe have been taught all their lives that it is an offence, not only against the law, but against the principles of tidiness and cleanliness, to leave their rubbish lying on the ground, and so it just isn't done over there. It might be a good thing if some of our own people in this country could be given a faste of the same kind of training. LOST INTEREST IN ART In view of the fact that the annual meeting of the Oshawa Little Theatre is being held this even- ing, and that its future is at stake, the criticisms levelled -at the people of Toronto by Carroll Aikins, director of the Hart House Theatre of that city, are of great. interest. While those supporting the Little Theatre move- ment in Oshawa have felt that it was deserving of great public approbation than has been accorded it, 'they have never felt quite so strongly on the matter as Mr, Aikins apparently does. He does not mince } words in letting the people of Toronto know that they are unappreciative of art in their neglect of their Little Theatre, and that they are more prone to line up in queues for the motion picture theatres . than they are to attend amateur dramatic perform- ances of the calibre presented at Hart House, There is some truth, of course, in this latter as- sertion. Even in Oshawa, the motion pictures are given much greater support than has been accorded the Little Theatre, but that is not surprising. The . Little Theatre movement is something new. Last season was more or less in the nature of an experi- ment, and its work was mostly of an educational character, This truth, however, has been discovered, that a great many of the people are willing to be educated 'as to the value, both from the art and the entertain- - ment standpoint, of the production of the best class of plays by local amateurs with outstanding talents for dramatic work. That was proven by the manner in which, by the end of the season, the Little Theatre productions were patronized by ever-increasing crowds. \ Probably the Toronto director was a little too di- © rect in his criticisms of his public, After all, any movement of this kind must be developed by slow steps, and he who expects it to be a complete suc- cess overnight is bound to be disappointed. (N jx VACATIONS IN CANADA With an endless variety of travel and sporting attractions, Canada rank to-day as one of the world's premier playgrounds. The vast extent of the dominion and the diversity of its various re- gions make it rather hard, however, for the pros- pective visitor who is not familiar with the couns try to decide where to go and what he wants to do or see. To overcome this, the Department of the Interior at Ottawa has published "Vacations in Canada," a 96 page handbook for tourists and sportsmen, and is distributing it through' the Natural Resources Intelligence Service of the de- * partment. The booklet describes the tourist atiractions of each part of the Dominion, the climate; the motor © roads, the poinis of historic interest, the fishing, " hunting, canoeing and camping, the principal cities 'and the popular summer and winter resorts. in _ nddition it gives a summary of the Canadian cus- toms regulations, covering the entry of tourists' + automobiles and outfits, and synopses of the read v x ee Sundays and legal bolidays, st Oshawa, Street, Tolophone provinces The booklet, of course, is primarily intended for the use of visitors from other countries, but there is much in it that should interest Canadians as well. The people of this country do not see enough of it. They do not pay enough attention to its many attractions and, and they too, might make good. use of "Vacations in Canada" in mak- Ang their plans for summer holday-making. AERIAL BOMBS IN WARFARE The preparatory commission on disarmament will have to do some explaining before the people of the world generally can aceept with equanimity its de cision not to ban the use of aerial bombs in future warfare. It is striking, of course, that in all its de- liberations, the commission is taking it for granted . that therc are going to be future wars, in spite of all the hopes raised by the Kellogg anti-war treaties. " Taking the matter of acrial bombs in warfare on its merits, however, the nations involved in the dis- cussion must have short memories in rejecting a pro- posal for their abolition. Most people can recall the damage done to civilian lives and property, the toll of death among innocent wemen and children, by the aerial bombardment of London and other cities in the last 'war, Canadians, too, will recall the bombing from the air. of a Canadian hospital back at the base in France, in which nurses and wounded men lost their lives. War is no respecter of persons, and when bombs are dropped from the air, civilians as well as com- batants find their lives in peril. The death from the air meant little in the way of military advantage to any country, and from this viewpoint alone, it might have been wise to say that it should have no place in any future war that might break out. Cer- tain it is that the people of the world would have had far more faith in the work of the disarmament com- mission had the plan to ban aerial bombs been adopted with unanimity. BRITAIN'S VITALITY An interesting thought was put forward by the Hon, R. B, Bennett in an address at Montreal the other night when he spoke at a banquet in honor of St. George, the patron saint of England. Speak- ing of the tendency of the people of Britain to mi- grate to all parts of the world, he raised the ques- tion as te how Britain could retain its virility and vitality, in spite of this great drain on the best of its manhood and womanhood. It is indeed a matter for wonderment that the loss of millions of her people to other countries has ap- parently not lessened the stamina of the mother land. No matter how many have left Britain, there are still those left behind of sufficient virility to en- . able her to "carry on" as she has always done, Mr, Bennett, in answering the question quoted the words of the late Lord Bryce, "The lake has been drained, but is yet full" That has been proven true in the manner in which Britain has come through 'the struggles of the war and the difficulties of the years that have followed it. There seems to be something in the mingling of races which make up the population of Great Britain that acts as a never-failing fountain of strength, The characteristics of not one, but many different strains of people, have been poured into the national life, and the best in each retained, And, having retained the best, Great Britain is able to go on producing great men and women in spite of the fact that so many have Jeft her shores.

Barton, M.D. CORRECTING CONSTIPATION WITHOUT DRUGS Waste matter in intestine can be absorbed into the blood when the liver fails to remove the poisons. However, there are other' things that happen in constipation that are not generally known. One is that this waste matter makes pressure against side of in- testine. that upsets the natural rhyth- mical movement of the muscles of intestine. As you know movement is affected along large intestine by what is known. as peristaltic action, a worm-like motion with first a con- traction or tightening of one part of intestine, and a relaxation in an- other part; the contractions extend in a wave-like motion along the in- testine. . The long fibres at the sides of the intestine (which look like the stripes on a soldier's trousers) draw back behind waste matter that is to be pushed dewnward, and the circular fibres which run circularly around the intestine then contract and squeeze or push it along. : Now various kinds of foods may interfere with, or "slow up," the ac- tion of these muscles, and also mental actions such as hurry, anxiety, and so forth. Dr. Jas. McLester, Birmingham, also tells us that the treatment of constipation falls under four head- ings. . 1 Relieve all general debilitating influences--bad teeth and tonsils, and bad daily habits of neglect, 2.
