Another fad which accompanies the latter is the separation of starch from fruits. Neither of these theories is based upon any scientific fact, but followers of these diet systems are fortunately seldom harmed as far as health is con- cerned. It is their family and friends who suffer. both because separate dishes must be provided for them and because the addicts are never content to suffer aloneâ€"they must attempt to convert everybody else. Chiffonade Dressing 1 teaspoon salt. 3.4 teaspoon pepper ‘4 teaspoon mustard ‘A teaspoon sugar ‘A’. teaspoon paprika 6 tablespoons salad oil 2 tablespoons vinegar 1 teaspoon minced onion 1 teaspoon minced chives 1 tablespoon minced green pepper For some reason or other it seems to be the style to attempt to separate various food constituents. You have probably been bored. as I have bene, by peOpIe who insist that starch and pro- tein must be separated. This is an impossible task, as mead, cereals and vegetables such as beans and peas pro- vide both protein and starch. Of course, the devotees of this food sys- tem are not consistent. (By Edith M. Bai’oer) “My dear Miss Barber: In your ar- ticle on cereals the other day you did not mention the fact that they should never be used with milk, because starch and vitamins should not be taken to- gether." I certainly did fall to mention that “fact," which is non-existent. This is a food fallacy which I had not heard before. I wrote to the writer and said to him that it would be an impossible task to separate vitamins and starch, at least in the whole grain cereals if there were any reason for it.

Text of the statement follows: It has been announced that relief camps as now organized and conducted will be discontinued during the present year. As an emergency measure these camps may have been justified. As a permanent feature of social organiza- tion in Canada they cannot be sup- ported either on grounds of social utility or governmental economy. While relief camps remain open, pro- jects will be continued under the de- partment of national defence. working in close co-operation with and carry- ing out the policy of the labour de- partment. The additional railway maintenance WOl’k will be undertaken by the Gov- ernment and railways on a co-Opera- tive basis. An emergency supplementary estimate will be introduced in the House to cover the Government’s share. Arrangements have been made with the Canadian railways to employ 10.000 men on deferred maintenance work during the coming summer. Men taken from the relief camps by the railways will be on a basis of work and wages. To operate, each man. however. will receive only 87.50 in cash, the balancc being set aside to be given him when he leaves the camp in the form of vouchers payable at the rate of $4 a week at. any post office.

Forest conservation, easier ac- cess to mining areas and other devel- opment projects would be other out- lets for employment and it is antici- pated that these Opportunities I have suggested for employment will absorb the bulk of men in the camps wno are fitted for this class of work. It is expected that through the in- strumentality of the proposed Nation- al Employment Commission, working in co-operation with business and in- strength of the camps, into gainful and useful employment. It is anticipated that these arrangements will permit the closing of re lief camps, as such. not later than Jily 1 of the present- year. No new projects will be under- taken. The present strength of the camps will not be increased. There will be no new admissions. In seeking ways and means to pro- vide employment. the Government has recognized the desirability of afford- ing. so far as may be possible, alter- native employment suitable to the training and experience of those now in camps. As a result of negotiations with Canadian National Railways and the Canadian Pacific Railway through the minister of railways and canals, ar- rangements have been made whereby 10,000 men .will be employed on de- ferred maintenance work on the track- age of these companies during the com- ing summer. age an attitude of hopelessness on the part of those for whom they were de- signed to make provision in a, period of economic extremity. Probe Confirms Intention The intention to abolish relief camps has been confirmed by findings and recommendations of the committee ap- pointed to report to the minister of 1a.- bour on existing conditions in these camps. The Government recognizes that in closing these camps every effort must be made to provide employment for those now on the strength of the camps who are employable. Preliminary arrangements have already been made for setting up machinery which will absorb, from time to time, those on the service of national importance.

Racicot were sentenced to three months at hard labour on charges of breaking and entering and theft. Their counsel, Ed. Pearlman, put up a strong plea for them on the idea that they were first offenders. They were not exactly strangers to the ma- gistrate, however, and he no doubt re- membered seeing them before, and not so long ago either. Both these young men and another young fellow, also with them at Kirkland Lake. were picked up some weeks ago in Timmins on charges of assault. They were ac- cused of attacking a man and his wife who were walking down street. There was no apparent excuse for the assault. Spencer on that occasion was dismissed as no one was present to identify him as concerned in the assault. The magis- trate commented, however, that it ap- peared even from Spencer‘s own evi- dence that he was the cause of all the trouble. Racicot was fined for his part in the assault case. At Kirkland Lake last Thursday they did nOt escape so easily, being sent to jail for three months each with hard labour. 9. A $2.00 donation was sent to the Educational Relief Fund. 10.

On several occasions The Advance has had reference to the good work being done by the I.O.D.E. in Timmin‘s and for the district. The “Educational Report for 1935" as recently presented to Timmins Golden Chapter Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire, up- holds this thought. It should be re- membered that the educational work is only one branch of the I.O.D.E. ef- fort 'but it is an important one and suggests the value of the Order to the community and to Canada.
