to put them back again in the ark after they had been used and the eyes of all in the sy nagogue were fastened on him there was something in the look of jesus here that held the people spell bound for the moment apart from the great reputation with wbioh he came to tliein and he began to say unto them the reader interpreter and preacher might be one two or three persons here christ was both reader and preacher and possibly he interpreted as well any member might discharge these duties hence it was always easy for jesus to address the congre gation when he became famous as a teacher be would often be invited to do so today hath this scripture been fulfilled in your ears this was a most astonishing assertion the prophecy of isaiah had hpen uttered almost seven hundred and fifty years

lime of klislia the pro phet and none of thorn was cleansed but only naamaii the syrian the reference here is to kings 5 114 it is to be observed that in both of the incidents which the lord gives from the od testament the mercy of god to gentiles outside of israel is illustrated and they were all tilled with wrath in the synagogue as they heard these things this whole oc currence whenever it happened in our lords ministry was but a fore shadowing of his treatment after wards from the whole nation of the jews and they rose up and cast him forth out of the city and led him unto the brow ot

has been making remark able progress in a reduction of hex infant mortality rate in the last twen ty years in we last eight to nine yearsalone the efforts of the health department of our provinces and municipalities have resulted in a de crease of 29 per cent in the death rate of children dying in the first year of life and an actual saving ot s over uouu lives annually marked pro- bag of the siess has been effected in tho pre- veniion of deaths due to certain of the diseases and conditions prevalent in the summer weather bin now a spec- i ial analysis made by the dominion bureau of statistics in collaboration 1 with dr lloyd p macllallle staff consultant in pediatrics of the cana- jdiun welfare council indicates that i the problem of death and sickness in the infant and preschool age group due to respiratory diseases and to diseases which are related must be i attacked at once and vigorously tbeso diseases include inflamed i conditions of nose throat larynx and wind pipe bronchitis and broncho- j pneumonia branchpneumonia which r so frequently is secondary to or com plicates bronchitis coughs cods and sore throats accounts for nearly half of the respiratory diseases which strike childhood and it has now been estblislied that in h33 the last year for which final figures are now avail able bronchopneumonia was the sec ond greatest cause of death by acquir ed causes among all children in their first year of life in the whole of can ada while bronchopneumonia and bronchitis took first place in the cause of deaths in lhe whole group from one to four years bronchopneumonia is also a fre quent occurence in such conditions as measles whoopingcough and in fluenza especially is this so in in fants and toddlers tin- younger the child the greater the danger it is said to lie the most frequent cause of death in young children who die from these three diseases so that the death rale resulting from broncho pneumonia due to all causes as af fecting this young age group is in deed alarming the preliminary vital statistics for available and they show a disturbing increase in the number of infant deaths due to influenza piiunionia and bronchitis and to two diseases measles and whooping cough which only too frequently end up in broncho pneumonia especially when these two i diseases have been regarded with an undue degree of complacency the months of january february and march in this year were particularly deadly to child life in this group of diseases therefore a speeul effort is ueng made to reach parents throughout canada in these next few weeks urging on them the necessity of spe- leial precautions and protection of the j baby ami young ohild in the next three i to four months against the dingers of the group of respiratory diseases and these primary diseases which contribute to a high death rate usual ly from a complicating pneumonia the provincial and municipal depart ments of health are always ready to provide parents with educational lit erature and
