Powers and Stone In¢., New York and Chicago THURSDAY, MARCH 13, 1930 REPAIRS NEEDED Motorists who have occasion to do much driving on Simcoe Street are hoping that spring weather 'will set in definitely in/ the . very near future. It is not that they are anxious to seek the open highway with their cars that creates this wish. It is because of the terrible condition of the pavement on that street at the present time. The condition of the pavement, and par- ticularly that part of it close to, the street railway tracks, is terrible. . One can scarcely drive five yards without having to dodge gaping holes in it, Driving a car under these conditions has become a trying ordeal, and one has to travel far to find any street which is so desperately in need of attention. It is realized, of course, that repair of "this kind cannot be done while the snow and ice cover the roadway. That is why mo- torists are hoping spring is not far away, because they are also hoping that when spring comes, there will be a squad of men at work repairing the thousands of holes which have made driving miserable and a danger both to the cars and to their occu- pants. A word to the wise should be suf- ficient, and surely those in charge of the fer. V.C., DSP, M. city streets are already sufficiently aware of the conditions to have their plans ready to start repairs immediately the weather makes these possible. JUSTICE RANEY'S COMMENTS There was a good deal of common-sense tn what Justice Raney had to say at the supreme court at Whitby the other day with reference to the county jail, He had two main criticisms to make, both of which, if founded on fact, should be taken seriously. The first was that the prisoners at the jail were kept in idleness, were given no oc- vupation while in- jail. This in itself is a bad thing for the prisoners. It leaves the way open for plotting and scheming, as has been proven by the jail-breaking attempts of a few months ago. Men with nothing to_ do are bound to. become morose, and a tem- perament of that kind is apt to lead to trou- ble. It would be much better for all con- cerned were it possible to keep the prisons, ers occupied, so as to give them some inter-" est in life other than merely sitting in a cell. The second" criticism was rather pre pointed, and carried a weighty moral. tice Raney expressed the view that it was not right that all classes of offenders should be allowed to associate with each other. In. e case under review, a lad of eighteen had n compelled to associate with hardened Is. This is bound. to have am un healthy effect on a youthful mind, and is quite liable to lead him into permanent of crime. In any jail, it should be ble to segregate the prisoners, so that who ape novices in evil-doing may be ept by themselves rather than with bse who are well-advanced in ways of me, and are liable to lead the Founger fdrther. astray. here is too much of a tendency, every- to think that any kind of a police wid any kind of conditions, will 'do for of- 1d the law. -That is a mis- in idea. The first object of the officers law 'should be to make conditions. uch as Justice Raney described, A HERO PASSES $e | ev ----y | The ploplo of Canada stood "still fora moment Yesterday afternoon - with 'the shock of the news that 'W.

Col. Barker was one of those high- hearted Canadian lads who heard the call of country and Jf adventure when war /|/ "broke over the world in 1914, He began his sérvice to his country at the age of twenty, a mere stripling, carrying his rifle and pack: into the trenches. Then, after a spell of, trench warfare, he heard the call of the higher adventure, of the air service. For the: rest of the war he fought in the air, ceeded only by his courageous comrade-in- arms, Col. W. A. Bishop. On his return from the front, after being the honors a grateful monarch could bestow on him, he remained true to the call of the : air, and devoted himself to the development of aeronautics. Now the life-work which he 'acquired in war service became his calling Canada will mourn the loss of this heroic son, and while he is gone, his name will live on for ever in the annals of the nation's history as that of one who counted not the cost, but served valiantly in the hour of his country's danger. ON THE MARCH Gandhi is on the march. The fapatical Indian, surrounded by an atmosphere of mysticism has set in motion his movement directed against the British rule of India. It is not, as yet, possible to tell where it It may peter out ignominously, or it may kindle a fire that will be even more disastrous than the Indian Mutiny of 18567. While there must be a feeling of uneasi- ness over Gandhi's venture, it need not be taken too seriously. It does not represent the true feeling of the masses of the peo- ple of India. Out of the four hundred mil- lions who live in that country, there are probably a few thousands who are staunch followers of Gandhi, and no more. The rest, or those who have heard about it, are probably wondering what all the fuss is | no education, they are not worrying great- ly about systems of government, They are too much concerned with their own lives | in their little villages to bother about self- | determination. The Indian trouble, however, is a side- light on the danger of too rapid an applica- tion of western ideas to eastern peoples. Until they imbibed these ideas, the native leaders of India were content under British rule, and were enjoying all the benefits of that rule. Now they are ready to bite the hand that fed them, a proceeding that is MIGHT CAUSE TROUBLE A rather good publicity stunt, but one' Her activi- 'Sounds like a good stunt, doesn't it?

At any rate, that is the estimate by Dominion statis. ticians on the basis of three persons ~surely a conservative figure--to every one of the 4,508,000 automo- biles of foreign registration, which is to say American registration, within Canada's boundaries in 1929, Even though. the automobile has made the United States the most ntobile country on earth, it is re- markable that nearly one-tenth of our population crossed the border in motor cars last year, "The outdoor charms of Canada are boundless. To drive along its highways is a delight which, once enjoyed, must be re- peated, Still, there are cynics who will doubt that even Uanadian outdoors lured 13,000,000 Americans across the border jn 1929. Americans love out- doors, they will say, but not many of them to the extent that they will motor into Canada to get even an hour or two of-it.

(Copyright 1935) Affect of Type Sizes on Eyesight, 4 Part "go" Almost every. ons of us has at some time in his life entered a room from the back and looked ver a number of people at work at thelr desks and while we may nol have had the same reasons then as new, we can at least recal. that some' were upright, others lounging over with head on one side not in a very upright position. From this study of the upright profile we can in practically every case pick out the vertical from the slant writers. I would feel like firther adding that the slant write ing if taught as the only proper form to be used would be the means of causing Astigmatism in certain eyes, due to the fact that certain persons (including myself at this moment) in writing a slant hand will place thelr paper at an angle and in writing must "look at their writing at an obligue angle, certainly this is entirely necessary if an upright position is to be maintaimed.

Amen, That Body of Pours By James W. Barton, M.D. TO GET A CLEAR SKIN In these days when to have a Zin is considered desirable yy men as well as women, I often wonder why more thought is not given to what gives and maintains a nice skin. Where the skin is harsh, gray perhaps pasty in appear- ance, or has blemishés of any kind the first thought with many indi- viduals is to use some special soap, cream, powder, or salve, Now there are conditions where J these applications are helpful, as | they stimulate the skin in this par- ticular part, increase the circula- tion, and improvement can be not- ed, But I have particularly in mind that dead dry looking skin so of- ten noticed. ' Now it has been found in treat- ing certain chronic skin aliments eczema for instance, that diet is the most important factor in bringing about a cure, Sometimes it has been tomatoes, too many potatoes, too much bread too much fresh fruit that were the underlying causes of harsh skin, Research men, with the above experience in mind have been ex- perimenting with foud, and its eft- fect upon the skin, and found that the diet of these individuals with dry, "harsh, gray skin, was made up mostly of those four main ar- ticles, meat, potatoes, bread, and ple or pastry. These are serviceable foods, all of them, and should be eaten, as they have plenty of starch for en- ergy purposes and the meat is a body builder, but they lack certain essentials, certain vitamins, miner. al substances, They are too "acld.' Accordingly by lessening tho amount of meat, potatoes, bread, and pastry, and adding milk, fresh cooked vegetables, fresh fruit ana lettuce, they have given to the blood the elements ecessary to give the skin its rightful appear. ance, clear, a good eelor, soft, and pliable, Now, if these foods are doing this for the skin, what must they be doing for al! the internal tis- sues of the body. If these foods are making the skin 'young" in appearance. they will do the same {or the lining of the blood vessels, kidneys, liver and other organs Remember you are to eat meat or eggs; bread and potatoes, in smaller quantities and add fresh cooked vegetables, be ruit and lettuce, This is a simple method of secur ing and retaining a good. clear skin, (Registered in Accordance, with the Copyright Act) \ THAT A WHOLE LOT OF PEO- PLE GET THE HABIT OF SPENDING MONEY TOO FREE. 3 BLL THOUGHT FOR lo indulge in too many lux. | urles which their incomes will not "| stand; they seem to have no thought for the future, Qf ire éy and 'they have a right 10 spend it, ut kht 'forget TO It 'they would slow down, live | | to re-adjust thelr way of li and start in to spend their, money Judicionsly.
