The public schools deserve much of the credit for the straight, lithe bodies of our boys and girls. N0`. only have they ven attention. and serious attention, to the h_v-_e'iene 01 daily exercises and posture, but they have seen to it that chta.i1's and desks in school rooms are construct- ed in such a \va._\' that children can rest wi t.h.out strain. There are curves where curves are needed, and desks in school rooms are at correlc. angles so that pupils can sit in a natural position and not be com- pelled` to elevate or drop one sh.ould'er when Writing, a gesture that if often repeated may cause 1Li.~11ortion in later life. .. .. `IV 10 u .. -12;-,,, 1.. ..-.._; Romance Lacking in Modern Spinster This is an age of honest admis: Now the liigthtingz facilities in most schools are well night perfect, but a thousand other things are contri- butors to a. good posture.

LIMITED Radical economy in operating costs forms the prime objective of the Canadian National Railways newest design in locomotives. representing :1 revolutionary departure from present standards and practice, which has Just been placed in service on the main line between Brockville and Belleville. 'Ilhis new locomotive presents a tremendous advance in the use of the oil-electric type of locomotive and forms a distinctive offering on the part of Cllildiall engineers towards the solution of the transpor- tation problems of this continent. As the National System was the pioneer three years ago in placing in service the first oi1-electric car of 200 'h0i'se-power rating, its engineers have maintained leader- ship by the introduction of this locomotive, nrw in character and design, for fast passenger and freight. service.

With the present gear ratio, which was laid out for high speed passenger service, the locomotive will develop a tractive effort of 100,000 pounds during the accelerating periods. The electrical system of transmission utilizes full engine liorse-power over a. wide range of speed and trnctivo effort without a change of engine speed or shifting of gears. hUI'VlUU. The new locomotive is the further practical application of the use of fuel oil in railway trans-` portation in which an oil engine is used to drive :1 generator for supplying electrical energy to the propulsion motors. Power and speed are obtained at costs far below those of coal-fired steam-driven locomotives. ' 4 ` '1`hn `I\(\ll7t\D0 r`l\'vt\`r\I'|Arl hp 41....
