LS Al A ARPRLT SATURDAY, JANUARY 28, 1928 PRECOCIOUS YOUTH It is going a bit further than is necessary to assert that the faults of the younger - generation are not to be blamed on youth alone, Though that charge is sometimes heard, it is a fact that the older generation is not waging aggressive war against the younger, They are conducting a moderate, almost apologetic, defensive, All they ask is that the "faults" of the younger genera. tion shall not be entirely ascribed to the older generation, which is the normal pro- cedure, Sound reasons for the so-called discon. tent among modern youth are cited. The disillusionment following upon a world war, for which the older generation must be held chiefly responsible, because it was in charge of the world, is real, And yet in this mat. ter of the World war something of the re- sponsibility rests on young shoulders; if not young men and women, then young na- tions, ' The great castastrophe was not immedi. ately precipitated by the big nations, but by the little nations eager for their own place in the sun, The match was lighted in the Balkans, where the ambitions of a half dozen little' peoples clashed, The principal mistakes and "crimes". alleged against the peace settlements do not lie against the big nations, The territorial settlements most often questioned are those benefiting the little nations--Servia, Rumania, Czecho. "slovakia, Poland, Present uncertainties are connected chiefly with the large brood of infant republics, They are young and they . want to grow, often unreasonably, Young nations, like young people, glorify their own importance, They are national. /" istic to excess and place their own destiny and welfare before that of the rest of the ~~ world, And all the world can do is be pa- tiently tolerant until they grow up. A man who falls in love with himself never has any rivals, FANATICISM The only sensible way to look upon the " eampaign of Mayor Thompson, of Chicago, to purge municipal and school libraries of the city whose famous winds do not all come off Lake Michigan is as a huge farce staged by a brass politician who places his own selfish political ambitions before the . welfare of the people and who lacks the depth of mind to realize the dangers of his misguided acts, Men of the Thompson stripe are breeders of war and international hatred, They carry 'nationalism to a dangerous extreme, They Ii Sify i may explain increasing juvenile delinquen- cy. "Idleness is the devil's workshop" whether in the home or on the street corner. Whether the shorter working day in mill, factory and home will make for the better- ment of mankind is a question worth pon. dering.

Probably not, Poss- ibly the usual adjustments of change may be made and the world become a more plea- sant place in which to live, But there is also the possibility that over-civilization today " may do what over-civilization did to the an- cient world--usher in a recation of semi- barbarism, A reassuring sign is that both men and women are using some of their new leisure for body-building sports and charac- ter-building, reading and thought, COLLEGE-TRAINED JANITORS The steady trend in large cities toward organization of all kinds of industry re- ceives additional impetus through a couple of suggestions recently made, 'The first is also in line with specialized vocational train- ing. 4It would recognize the calling of jani- tor by having schools where boys could be taught how to be good janitors, just as they - are now taught other trades, Tenants afflicted with shiftless and dis- obliging service might well be glad to con- tribute toward the endowment of such in- stitutions, Their happiness and comfort in a new building, which has had the pains- taking attention of architect and builder, may be destroyed by the employment of an untrained fellow who does not look after the halls properly, lets the fires go down two hours before time to retire and forgets that a supply of hot water is important at all hours of the day or night, If janitors could be specially trained for their job, their wives might go to work in the proposed culinary factory, That idea comes from a Paris professor, He states, quite truly, that cooking is an essential work, That it should be left in the hands of millions of women who are not too fond of it, when it could be done by fewer indi- vilusls with a natural aptitude increased by education, seems absurd, Too much thought cannot be given to the training of those upon whom depends the happiness and comfort of so many, When and if these plans are executed, the Janitors' College should be situated con- veniently near the Culinary College so the model children of the union of' janitor and cook would be able to grow up in the family tradition and live to improve the profes- sions. Award the janitors a degree and give them some high-sounding name if the service they give, or fail to give, will be improved by such personal glorification. Bit of Verse THE MESSAGE Always the day speaks to my soul A message which the night repeats, "Never may'st thou know the whole Of beauty, for she hourly greets With new wonder and surprise Thode who sean her mysteries," "Each morning is creation's dawn , Each evening sets new stars alight, The suns of other days are gone, 'Tonight is not as yesternight, Thou hast changed and by that change All outward things are new and strange." Ta *So it shall be evermore, Nature is not the same to thee As Nature was in days of yore; And in future thou shalt see A guiracle with each new morn Because new beauty in thy soul is born." --H. T.

But there are 70 other countries which produce this staple cereal, and the rivalry of some of them in the markets of the world com- pel our grain growers to be alert and zealous, They have the advan. tage, however of being able to produce wheat of special quality, owing ta the conditions as to clim- ate and soll, That fact gives Canada the assurance of a more or less constant demand, THOSE K-OENT PIECES (Montreal Herald) The Retail Merchants' Associa tion is campaigning for the remov- al of one or other of the two five- cent pleces now in eirculation, The larger five-cent piece of nickel {is probably in the nature of an experiment, and that may be the reason why the smaller coin of silver is still allowed to circulate, But surely there is no need to continue the experiment {indefin- itely.

The silver coin is so small that it is apg to get lost in the shuffle, and the nickel coin so large that the cashier is apt to mistake it for a quarter, The two together are a nul- sance, One should be. taken out of eirculation, THE WONDER OF RADIO A report comes across the ocean that a British company thinks it is able to produce television a- cross' the Atlantic--in other words, send by radio a picture a~ cross the ocean, This will 'be merely extending what has been shown to be practicable for a less distance, In Schenectady, N.Y. recently 8 group of persons assembled In a private home listened to a ra- dio-transmitted concer; and saw upon a screen the images of the artists performing. This was de- clared a highly successful demon- stration of radio-television. Bug the great master of wireless promises more, Signor Marconi, in a recent article in an American pa- per, states that he thinks it pro- bable that within a few years ra- dio will transmit moving pictures, He thinks it probable that a man will be able to sit in his arm-chair at home and not only hear some great tenor singing in operas, but see the opera. That it will be pos- sible for fight fans a hundred miles away not only to 'hear the announcement of what is going on in an srgument between Gene Tunney and Jack Dempsey, but to see the fight as it goes on. This world bids fair to be quite remarkable fifty or a hundred years from now. The human race may be making holiday exeursions to the moon, TO PRESERVE SCENIC BEAUTY (From the Kitchener Record) Plans to modify the erosion of rock at the crest of Niagara Falls have been formulated by an inter- national board of engineers. With 8 view to preserving. the matural beauty of the falls certain steps have been recommended and it is not likely that any objections will be forthcoming to a move that affects both Capads and the United States very vitally, The contemplated work may not be understood by the uninitiated but there is a very general feeling that something should be done to stem the destructive forces that threaten to rob the cataract of its "harm. nsidering the end in view the cost of the proposed plans is not at ud ous of reason. Remedial work will amount to ut - 0 Milly about $500 struction will be in the - hood of $1,750,000. Selsuvor.

Perhaps once in & year or once in five years, you have moticed a Noro. 4Hiakinks 404 have wondered were drinking, an 'wonde it this business of '"'pasteurizing the milk wasn't being overdone; because the taste ia likely due to this cause. Yet if you were to drink milk in its "raw" state, you wuld be taking chances on serious®liness, it not death itself. Now, except perhaps sugar, milk is the cheapest food you can buy, and it is also an all round food. No food is perhaps more univers- ally used. And because it is so generally used, it is "responsible for more sickness, than all other foods taken together." Typhoid fever, tuberculosis, sear- let fever, summer diarrhoea in children, may all he traced in many cases to "raw" milk, [8 Severe epidemics of typhoid fever have been caused by um- pasteurized milk, When you remember that 4 eon- siderable percentage of cattle nave tuberculosis, yon are quite willing to favor anything that will make milk safe, What is the process of pasteur- ization? It means heating the milk to a temperature of 145 degrees Fah- renhelt, at which it must be held for 80 minutes, and must then be promptly cooled to 40 degrees Fahrenheit. Milk treated In this manner will keep sweet for several days under proper conditions, Just how much foed value and vitamins are lost by this' process is hard to estimate, byt this loss cannot be considered when we re- member the terrible toll raw milk takes sometimes. i That this danger is recognized is attested by the fact that every health officer in the United States and Canads, agrees that the pas- teurization of milk is an absolute necessity as a public health meas- ure. Now all cattle cannot be tested, methods of handling milk not al- ways well supervised, it would geem to he only common sense on the part of a municipality to see that all milk is pasteurized, and thus rendered safe. So if occasionally you think the pasteurization has been overdone, and it occurs very seldom, Tve- member that it is an evidence that whoever is supplying your milk has been pasteurizing it, and that you are thus being kept free from infection as far as your milk sup- ply is concerned.
