news of the battle for madrid comes an item to the effect that children in spanish government territory are going to start to school again in madrid alone about 100000 youngsters of school age who remain ed in the city because their parents would not consent to their evacuation were not able to attend classes be cause their schools were within range of rebel guns since madrid is still a target for rebel missiles it is interesting to see just how the minister of education solved the problem of reopening the schools heres just how simple it was madrid children will have their schools even if we have to open them under fire from enemy batteries he said thus despite great obstacles the nobility and dignity of learning is re established spanish children may proceed in their quest of a higher

down a woman who died as a result of the accident it was des cribed by one of the judges as the worst case of dangerous driving that could be conceived english courts certainly do look at such accidents differently than do canadian courts imagine a canadian going to jail for a year and losing his drivers license tor 15 years because he ran down and killed a pedestrian amherstburg echo the probation system there has been much discussion in canada of the merits or demerits of the probation system for both juven ile and adult offenders against the law tho success of the system de pends largely upon the thoroughness and tact with which it is administered an excellent illustration is found in manchester england not only has the work of the probation officer produced good results but it has been done at very small cost to the city the cost is only one shilling per case com pared with 2 5s per week for send ing a boy to a remand home or thirty- two to thirtyfive shillings per week

welldressed able- bodied men who solicit rides along the highway were really penniless and unable to furnish themselves with rec ognized transportation there might be some reason for allowing them to pester passing traffic and for meeting their wishes although it is often a de cidedly risky business to take strang ers into a car and many a man has found himself slugged and robbed as reward for his kindness but in all too many cases these people who prey upon motorists are not only neat and welldressed carry ing their belongings with them in grips or suitcases but have ample funds in their pockets to pay for transportation by means of train or motor coach the average young hitchhiker is simply a petty racketeer who moves from place to place by his nerve and at someone elses expense and

in his attempts to use for medical diagnosis tho newly found electrical waves in the brain 13 reported by dr frederick lemere following a series ot tests at the national hospital for nervous dis eases loudon it is now possible through these waves to watch the brain at work their production at tho rate of about ten beats a second is suspended by any form ot concentrated thought wireless amplification is used to make visible the minutely small electrical changes involved after studying the brain waves from 15 normal persons and co pa tients suffering from various brain in juries dr lemere concludes that such records could be used in many types of canes to remove doubt as to the site of tho injury other workers have concentrated on finding new and wholly abuorinal forms of brain wave the violent electrical discharge noted in attacks of epilepsy and an unusually slow rhythm ot about three beats a second are examples rhythm changes dr lemere has concentrated al most entirely 011 the measurement ot minor variations in tho regular ten- asecond rhythm bo finds that when tho brain is injured the rhythm may be more pronounced on the injured side of the brain on the other hand a number of other types of brain in jury result in no such unbalance dr lemere believes that brain wave records show also that there must be a fundamental difference between the mechanism of epilepsy and that of the violent form of headache known as migraine it has been argued that migraine represents a nerve storm of broadly similar type dr lemere is psychiatrist to the eastern state hospital
