Those little twoâ€"step ladders are a big help as the child graduates into a reâ€" Fular bed; not only do they enable him to get into bed easiiy and without dangâ€" er of falling but they are useful to stand on as he learns to wash himself at the basin . . . also just the right size to sit on while he‘s dressing himself.

The back is also adjustable to provide proper support and prevent slouching. The chair that is attached to a small table is a great boon, too, in teaching a child to eat properly by himself. Not only does this chair lock to the table but tables, right for play tables or dining tables for little people, make perfectâ€" ly fine end tables and coffee tables for the older rcom. Certain of these tables are made to slide under higher pieses when not in use. The crib and the emall chairs are the only pieces that have to be discarded with age. This furniture is very scientifically designed so that very small children can use it comfortably.

Most of the couples attendinz were in costume and a large number of attracâ€" tive characsters were represented. The judges had a difficult task in selecting the prize winners, the numbger of unâ€" usually good designs in makeâ€"up and costumes being very large. Eventually however, the prizes were awarded as follows:â€"best daressed gentleman, N. McKinnon; best dresed lady Mrs. Piss; best dressed couple Mr. Mahon and Miss Geroux; best dressed comic, Mr. Fiss:; best aressed comic ady, Mrs. Kenâ€" nedy. Huzh Richardson made such a modest and quiet young lady, handâ€" somely but showily dressed that he failed to attract the special attention of the judges, this showing the artful excelleonce of his female impersonation. But as one lady said, "She‘s a he, ain‘t it" They were. The dancing was good The Porcupine branch of the Navy League of Canada held a tag day in Timmins twenty years ago and netted over $400 for the effort. The ladies of the local Daughters of the Empire tock charge of the canvassing and did the work with the efficiency for which this organization has been noted. The ladies doing such capable work were: Miss L. Haltais, Miss Laura Poitras, M‘@ss Irene Carswell, Mrs. J. P. Taillon, Mrs. Laylor and Mrs. J. A. M:Innis. a new province that filled a useful and necessary purpose could not 5e conâ€" sidered as one government too many; that the precposed new province had such mizhty resources that it would have no difficulty in financing itself; that the impatience of the people here with the indifference and ignorance of the people of the south to the possibilâ€" ities of the North Land was fully justiâ€" fed. The Advance plated the arguâ€" ments on both sides of the question before its readers and concluded with these wordsâ€""If Old Ontario refuses to give the support and attention necesâ€" sary to the development of the North Land, if the older part of the province neglects to secure an intelligent and accurate knowledge of the needs of the great North, then a new province will be necessary, for the people of the North Land are determined that this country shall have a fair chance andi a square deal. Many up in the North : Land believe that as a separate proâ€" vince the development of this country would be phenomenal. They argue that | the southern part of this province neiâ€" l ther appreciates nor understands this country; that the aims, objects and ambitions of Ontario and Greater Onâ€" tario are widely different; that even the people of the two sections are difâ€"| ferent in type and disposition; and that if the North Land attended to its own affairs as a province, this land would prosper ‘beyond any present prospect because of the intelligent interest that would be devoted to the advantaze of the North Land by people who know | !arate province was simply because the people were impatient with the proâ€" gress being made. In answer to these points those advocating a separate | province argued:â€"That if the law did | not provide for a new province that ‘ law could and should be changed: that 1 of this land than did the Government. The ar;ument against the creation of a new province was chiefly along the following line:â€"That there was no proâ€" vision in the law for such a procedure; that there were in reality too many nrovinzges and governments now:; that the cost of maintaining the new proâ€" vince as a separate entity would not be warranted; that without the help of the rest of the province the North Land could not make its way as a separate provinzre; that the main reason why this part of the country wanted a sepâ€" Considerable space was given in The Advance twenty years ago to the disâ€" cussion of the proposal made by a local citizen that the North Country be Tormed into a separate province. The proposal met with an approval that would not be given toâ€"day. There was a general feeling that this country was being neglected and that the Governâ€" ment did not appreciate the possibiliâ€" ties of the North while the people of the provim:e in general knew less and cared less awbout the possible progress T wenty Y ears Ago From The Porcupine Advance Fyles Huntsville Forester :â€"Germans ate an average of 27 lbs. of fish each last will we consider fish a brain fosd. Another remedy for pneumonia apâ€" pears under the head of a vaccine and Dr. Felton of the National Health Inâ€" stitute of Washington, DC., says that it constitutes a preventive of "great promise." Its effects last only for about one year, but preliminary experiments show it to be quite effective in preâ€" venting pneumonia. Perhaps when the coming winter is over, we shall be able to speak with more confidience regard ing these new remedies. Last year that of dagenan or sulfapyâ€" ridine was added with spectacular reâ€" sults. The mortality, in closely checkâ€" eda experiments, came down from 25 to 8 per cent. Last week the Mellon Inâ€" stituts of Pittsburg annsunced the deâ€" velopment of another new antiâ€"pneuâ€" monia drug known by the overpowering name of "hydroxyethylapocupreine." It is made from quinine and is said to be more effective than dagenan, not causâ€" ing the nausea, vomiting and other nasty effects of the latter. Needless to say all these new drugs are potentially dangerous in the hands of the inexperienced. They must be carefully used and applied in the proâ€" per dosage. They are emphatically not remedies to be sold to everyone over the darv{z; counter. Heretofore, the use of serums, oxyâ€" en tents and careful nursing have been principal agencies in treatment. The American Public Health Assoâ€" clation, meeting in Pittsburg, labels pneumonia as "public health enemy No. 3" indicating that this infecticn comes third in the category of life destroyers and being only exceeded in this respect by heart disease and canâ€" cer. There are signs that pneumonia may be conquered at an early date. How Modern Science is Conquering Pneumonia The recount of the voting in the 1919 provincial election for Temiskamâ€" ing resulted in the announcement twenty years ago by Judges Hartman that he found Capt. T. A. Marladery to be elected by 77 of a majority over A. Montgcmery, Labour and Farmer canâ€" didate. The final count of votes was:â€" Magladery, 3092; Montgobery, 3015 Taylor, 1515. (By J. W. S. McCullough, M.D., D.P.H.) Twenty years ago at a largely atâ€" tended and enthusiastic meeting of lovers of bowling four teams were orâ€" ?zganized for the season as follows:â€"J. McLean, captain, P. Casey. C. White, Victor Knott, Leo. Laflamme, O. Farâ€" num, Pete Taylor, J. E. Newton, canâ€" tain, Chas. Alton, A. Brazeau, J. Blackâ€" well, M. Moore, James Brough, Jack Andercheck, Frank McGuire, captain, H. J. Marshall, H. J. Fitzpatrick, R. Hall, J. A. Howse, H. Jackson, J. Knott. Taylor‘s Special, J. Perreault, captain, Chas. Patterson, Jos. McGraw, Gus Bufiman, A. Kendell, Chas. Possetti, Gordon Rutherford. J. Perreault proâ€" mised to give a prize each month to the highest on the teams apart from the captains. It is interesting to note how few of thes. teams are still inteorâ€" ested in bowling here; many have moved away from town, and others dropping from the â€"game for cother reasons. \Prefers to Drink Germs _ Dead Rather Than Alive and most of those in attendance missed but few indeed of the numbers. The music was excelient being the usual good work of Colombo‘s orchestra." "But," as "he says, "the tale is but half toid: The person who milks the cow may be diseased; he may have septic sore throat, tubsrculesis, diphâ€" theria or summer complaint. He may have had typhoid fever or he may be a ‘carrier‘ of this disease. If the milk has not been pasteurized, it may be deadly! Finally this discerning writer says that the handling of milk by inâ€" fected persons is not ideal. How do we know that the quart of milk left on our doorstep has not thus been contaminâ€" ated?" We don‘t know, but (where pasteurization is in force) we can drink it in safety. *"Unless," says Mr. Clipsâ€" ham, "you prefer to swallow your germs alive, you will choose only, and drink in safety, pasteurized milk®*" | "*Milk from a tubercuious cow," he points out, "may be infected with tuâ€" berculcus germs which may thus be transmitted to children for whom milX is indispensable. Similarly the Bang bacillus may infect the user of raw milk with undulant fever." The opponents of pasteurization say that this process destroys the ‘life‘ of milk and at the same time forget that all ‘life‘ n milk is impurity, none of which is beneficia) and some of which may be dangerous. Mr. J. W. Clipsham, evidently a layâ€" man of Sparrow Lake, Ontario, in the Glicbe and Mail of the 4th of November, provides one of the best letters on the subject of milk that has appeared. He remarks how funny it is that people who object to dead bacteria in pasteurâ€" ized milk, swallow dead pM:r, dead chicken, dead oysters or dead sardines without a whimper. (By J. W. S.

A cabled message was deâ€" livered too, from the Duke of Gloucesâ€" ter, who stated that headquarters of the British Red iCross, of which h> is president, had been established behind the Maginot Line in France. Men who were prisoners of war are also generous in their response, it is said, for some of them claim that they would have starved in prison had it not sen for Red Cross supplies. Included among the thousands of other people who have gone deep into their pockets to support the war drive are parents and wives of men who lay wounded in hospitals in the last war and whose progress was reported faithâ€" fully to anxious relatives in this Doâ€" minion by Canadian Red Cross volunâ€" tary workers in England.
