THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, MAY 30, 1929 PAGE ELEVEN sia Livingstone' s Birthp lace To Be Pt iols as Memorial Glasgow; B ; nly a year ego, David Livingstone's birthplace at Blantyre was an un essing slum that was about to.be pulled down. Today it stands completely renovated, with the : adjoining "Shuttle 'Row' connected up as part of the m buildihgs, whicn house a co of relics and plc- torial records that, ina unique way, will keep 'the significance of his name in perpetual remem- prance. A sum of £9,000 has been collected, and a further £4,000 is required to complété the scheme. Flag Days are being held through- out Scotland to raise the balance, that for Edinburgh being held on Saturday, 27th April, In connec- tion therewith, a meéting of dis- trict conveners and others inter- etsed was held in'the City Cham- bers on April 3. The Lord Provost, in opening the meeting, said he wished his words could reach every member of the community, so that the ap- peal which they were to make should be worthy of the city's his- tory, and of the cause in which they were interested. Similar efforts, remarked the Lord. Provost, were being made in Glasgow and Dundee. Naturally he expected that Edinburgh would do better, in proportion to its popula- Hon, than either Glasgow or Dun- ee. The hon. secretary, Mr. C. W. H. Miller; 25 Stafford Street, appealed to those present to make the Flug Day as widely known as possible. It was announced that Sir Alexan- der K. Wright, K.B.E., Royal Bank of Scotland, was to act as hon. treasurer for the Flag Day. FLAPPER: VOTE PROMINENT IN BRITISH POLLING (Continued From Page 1) numbered the men on the voters' list there was a steady stream of fem- inine voters at the polls until wel af- ter the lunch hour. In the coal min- ing area of Seaham, Ramsay Mac- donald's constituency young women turned out in force and it was esti- mated two women voted to every man. : London, May 30.--Polling day in London was ushered in under cold grey skies and a bitter northeast wind swept. the city. Many polling booths opened at 7' olelock in the morning and the voters shivered with the cold as they went in to mark their ballots, Thousands of .women were on hand early to take advantage of their new- ly conferred franchise. Balloting is in progress in England, Wales, Scotland and Ulster today in elections to fill 607 of the 615 seats in the House of Commons. Seven acclamations on nomination day, May 20, resulted in the return of four Conservative and thrce Na- tionalist candidates, who were unop- posed. In Rugby, Warwickshire, the election has been postponed until fone 13, owing to: the death of the abor candidate; H. 'Yates, two days before the election. The results of 222 seats will be known tonight or early tomorrow, but the great majority of the remainder will not be announced until after mid- day London time on Friday, includ- ing those of the three party leaders, Premier Stanley Baldwin, Conserva- tive, Rt. Hon. J. Ramsay Macdonald, and Rt. Hon, Dayid Lloyd George, Liberal. wl gene The results im most of the dozen university seats will not be announ- ced until June 3 or 4, with the re- sults of the three seats of "the Scot- tish combined universities possibly being deferred until June 10. The results to be announced to- night include those in which 18 mem- bers of the government, including nine members of the cabinet, arc running, The first results are expect- ed by 10 p.m., or 5 p.m, eastern day- light saving time in Canada. Screens first came into use to- ward the end of the 16th century and served the same purposes they do today, to protect from :serva- tion, draft or the heat of a fire. Modern usage, however, has add- ed one more purpose namely, dec- oration. he frame of a screen may he simple -or ornamental. The sim- pPlest ones are made of lightweight wood, in three or more folds, the top of each fold: cut in the pattern desired. If the screen is to be cov- ered with material or leather, a strong canvas is stretched on the frame and the decorative covering is then put on. If it is to be cov- ered with wall paper the frame is first covered with beaverboard or Upson-hoard. It- is possible to purchase a screen frame covered with this board for a very reason- able price. The decorative covering can then be put on according to the #pecifications of the owner, or even by the owner himself. One of the most whimsical and attrac- tive screens we 'have seen was made by a woman who likes tn do things of this kind. She purchas- ed a screen frame made with Up- son-board and applied a neutral colored wallpaer. On this she painted in bold colors and" modern- istic style, amusing symbols of va- rious idiosyncracies of herself and her husband. This screen was plac- ed in the tiny foyer of their apart- ment to conceal a closet door. At the same time, it completely trans- forms the nondescript entrance to the apartment. One of the places where a screen can be of the utmost use is to shield the doorway between the dining-room and the kitchen. Tn- stead of contending with a swing- ing door, which has an irritating habit of swinging shut just ag one enters with filled hands, it is a good idea to place a three-fold . 8Creen there, covering the door- Way, but leaving enough space for free passage. his screen can be a definite factor in the decoration of the dining-room. One lovely and Unusual screen used for this pur- Dose is composed. of twelve panels, each one about eight inches wide. The color scheme of the room in Which this is used is silver and gray, with sudden touches of wa- ter-melon pink. The screen is cov- ered, on the dining-room side by 2 pinkish gray antique satin, and on the opposite side by sateen of the same color. The many folds of the screen form interesting. va- riations of light and dark shades of gray. A One Thing I Know Experience is indubitable. Mere opinions and theories are frequent- ly quite unable to withstand the force of argument and the pressure of opposition. What a man has seen, however, with his own eyes, he can enver umsee, Though he may fail to convince thosé who con- trovert him, his own assurance only deepens with every fresh declaru- tion of that which he knows. Such is the case of the blind man, tne story of whose healing strikes such a tender and human note in the gospel record. Faith in- Christ ana implicit obedience to His commaua have been the means whereby the miracle has been effected. The man, hitherto imprisoned in dark- ness, is liberated in light entirely by the .power of the Son .of God. That such an event calls attention to Christ, and evokes a hostile de- monstration by His foes, is scarceiy a cause of wonder; for it is ever so. That it is unable to shake the confidence of the one who is eu- joying the glad amaze of a newly discovered world is likewise not to be wondered at, Such an experi- ence is entirely beyond the reach of all question. Ultimate and final certainty with regard to Christ has to be sougnt by each man in the realm of his own life. Where argument fails and logic is insufficient the victory is ever with the one who can say, "I know!" Ignorant concerning many things he may be, and frag- mentary even with regard to Christ may be his knowledge. But the ir- refutablé proof of His reality and power in the realm .of his own be~ ing. There the unspeakable change has been wrought, and of this "ouw thing' at least he is confident. He 'may kmow but in part--yet he knows! His faith stands not in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God; and its declaration is a veritable gospel to those who hear it. For this, indeed, is the knowl- edge which is power. --J, Stewart Holden, D.D,, MA.

Atkinson. unsightly object, but at the same time form a decorative unit in the room. In a living-room we saw recently the windows and doors are cut in such a way that th% entire room lacks balance. A wide open doorway, which takes up al- most the whole of one side of the room, is one of the worst features. To overcome this, we decided to cover this doorway with a four- fold screen. Ag the walls were covered with a green and white Tolie de Jouy paper on screens. A Chinese wall- paper with the screen was covered with a plain green paper, the same tone as the green of the Jouy print. A wall-paper - border of conventional flowers in red, pink and blue was then applied to each panel. An easy chair and a round table were placed in front of the screen. The room seemed entire- ly: changed, and one ig no longer conscious of the door and win- dows. There are a great many wall- papers which are especially adapt- ed for use on screens. A Chinese wall-paper with a scattered pat- tern in lacquer red and dull green will make a lovely screen. This paper is very successful when it is treated to hold the color and then shellacked. The finished effect is that of a painted screen. A pa- per that will make an attractive three-fold screen has a large panel of fruit and flowers.

Hogue, 68, died while at work in his office on St. John street. Heat prostration was diagnosed as the cause of death. None of the other cases are serious. Tuesday's record temperature was exceeded yesterday by almost a de- gree when thermometer recorded an official maximum of 882 degrees. Excessive humidity with little or no wind prevailed again, Ottawa, Ont., May 31.--The heat wave which with unexpected sud- denness settled over this city showed little variation today. The maximum témperature yesterday was 90 degrees. At eleven o'clock today it was 83 and waz on an upward course. So sudden was the change this week, that in some buildings the heat was still on the coild because of the backward spring, When the heat wave' ar- rived. Ottawa had the highest tem- perature yesterday of any Cana- dian city reporting. Geneva, Switzerland, May 30.-- Fourteen Latin-American coun- tries were represented at the In- ternational Labor Conferences which opened today with the rep- resentatives .of [fifty countries in attendance. Questions to come up for dis- cussion were forced labor, the hours of work of salaried employ- ees, the prevention of industrial accidents and protection against accidents to workers enggzed in loading and unloading ships.

And these hours of suspense can go a long way in reducing his "mor- ale," his power of resistance, He loses that wonderful help that going right ahead and treating him and continu- ing or changing his treatment as the results of the tests become known. While the "mental hazard" enters into golf and other sports, and .into many of our everyday normal ac- tions, nowhere is it more apparent than with a patient away from home.

So says Miss Lillian Locke, instructor of household arts at the Teachers' college. "Bosses," sald Miss Locke, "are only human. Naturally advance- ment usually comeg to the girl who looks best. Personality is counting more and more in busi- negg, and clothes, including stock- ings that give a shapely appear- ance to the legs, are important be- cause of the, way they affect the wearer and her business associ- ates. You -can't blame employ- ers for not wanting shoddy ap- pearing women in their offices gince that reflects on the prog- perity of their business. The girl who earns a small galary will find that silk stockings will be a costly item, but it's just one of those hard, hard things in life." So fascinated did Miss Lock? become with her theory of the silken leg that she conducted a survey. After statistics had been. accumulated, tabulated and an- alyzed, it was found that it is far, far better to pay $2 for a pair of stockings than to invest 30 cents, The $2 variety, it wag discovercd lasts & month, while the 30 cent hose are likely to go to pieces in three or four days. Thus the ex- penditure at $2 a pair is only $24 a year, while the outlay for the cheaper hose can run to $30, Miss Locke discovered that a girl should be able to dress well enough on $200 a year to stand a reasonable chance of gefting 'a raise. She must invest $33 in coats and wraps and $66 in dresses.

The first new record of the quartet was that hung up Sunday by the monoplane Fort Worth, which flew continuously in the vicinity of Fort Worth, Tex., for 172 hours, 32 minu- tes and one second, by refueling from a supply ship. The ship was piloted by R, L.

Barton, M.D. WAITING FOR THE DIAGNOSIS You have likely heard the story of the railroad foreman on whose sec- tion a bridge had been washed out, He instantly reported it, and in a few days a young engineer arrived and asked the foreman how the work on the new bridge was getting along and if the foreman had been able to follow the directions as outlined in the blue prints he had forwarded from headquarters, The foreman said "I didn't get a chance to look at the blue prints as I was too busy getting the new bridge finished. The trains have been running over it for the past two days. Some of our older physicians feel that this new fangled idea of sending a patient into hospital and making tests of urine, blood, sputum, faeces, and so forth, which may take a couple of days, is all wrong. Their idea is that the first thought should be to try and find out by physical examination and question- ing. just what is wrong with the patient and begin treatment at once These other tests can be made af- terwards, Because even if the diagnosis is wrong the tests will correct it with- in a day or two and proper treatment can then be given. And TI- believe most of us will be inclined to agree with the old fash- 'joned doctor on this point for one big reason. When a patient has to go to the hospital and leave his home, there is immediately a tenseness of his mind and body, and a feeling of disquie- tude.
