service to be known as the parents personal service this means that the hospital set aside a graduate nurse with her stenographer for the exclusive u6e ot the parents in order that they might have a direct and intimate source of information re their chil dren not only as to the aliment for which they were admitted but the little individual conditions it is comforting to talk with or write to someone who has time to see and chat with their little one and who can tell them how he looks and answer such questions as is he able to bo up or sit up in bed does- he miss us and fret does he play

of sympathy and understanding towards the parents as the hospital takes in children from every comer of ontario not withstanding that somo of the larger cities now have a hospital of their own this has increased the hospitals correspondence immensely a look at the file for this service however shows how worthwhile tho experiment has proved there are thousands of letters intensely human documents from parents a play wright would consider it a rich field it contains readymade blocks of assorted emotions for the making of dramas love pity longing anxiety fear faith hope exaltation and grati tude all crammed between its covers tho nurse in charge of this service is naturally immensely popular with the children they look to her for news from homo to the parents also eho is a very real person

the license to permit maple sugar products being exported or ship ped to another province the final date lor renewal ot license is dec 31 alter which dale licenses not renewed are liable to cancellation aud further shipments outside the province or use or license number by those affected is contrary to the provisions ot the maple sugar indus ry act and regu lations r theie is not the slightest advantage gained by delay the time to apply for license or renewal is now some times it has happened that a sugar bush owner seizing an opportunity for trade has suddenly decided to sell his syrup and sugar outside the prov ince has been forced either to violate the maple sugar industry act or delay shipment or to pass up the deal to any farmer who may have tho oppor tunity of selling his maple products to another province the fruit commis sioner department of agriculture ot tawa will be pleased to give full de tails and instructions on how to obtain a license the law is quite clear every sugai bush or sugar orchard from which maple products are exported or ship ped to another province must be li censed and the owner lessee or oper- j ator must apply to the fruit commis- siouer for a license or for a renewal the applicant must give his name and address also the lot number conces sion township and county iu which the sugar bush is located together with the total number of maple trees iu the staud and the number ot trees tapped cans or bottles containing maple syrup for retail trade must be clearly marked or tagged to show the com mon name of the product the net weight the name and address of the manufacturer or packer or of the sugar orchard and when licensing is required the license uumber further all labels tags caps stickers etc showing the required marks must be submitted to the fruit commissioner in duplicate for approval in writing before being used failure to do so constitutes a violation of the maple sugar industry act manufacturing or packing plants
