w UNNOTED CENTENARK

Una oi this year's centensries that has passed without attracting the attcntim that it deserves is that of Mrs. Robert Burns. l-ler chief title to fame is that she was the wife oi the author o! "The Cot- tcr's Saturday Night" and "Auld Lang sync," but a contemporary newspaper observed, she “was come- ly and prepossessing."

Mrs. Burns! real importance however. suggests the Christian Science Monitor, is as a symbol. She stands for that army of great men's wives, neglected by the hi;- torians and biographers. Almost every noted versifier in the calen- dar has been made the subject oi

In view of the Austro-German cmbroglio it is somewhat amusing to learn that Germany has enfor- ed a, ionnal protest against the speech of Gen. Johnson, NJLA. chief, who told an Iowa. audience that the Hitler murders made him "actively sick." United States Sec- retary Hull tells Germany that Johnson was not speaking for the Washington Government, but the General himself refuses to retract s. word, remarking "Hitler didn't seem to like what I said, did he?"

Evidence of Nazi activities in the United states "in contravention of international law" has been un- earthed by the Congressional com- rnitioe investigating these activit- ies, according io the chairman oi the committee.

oi the abdomen, or both, fo ‘ ,, it- self through the small opening in the abdominal wall through which only blood vessels and nerves should pass. "

When the hernia gels completely through, it can be made to drop back info the abdomen when the patient lies down. By applying a properly fitted truss against the opening while lying on the hack, the patient is usually able to get up and about with the bowel or lining of abdomen held firmly back in place.

However many "threatened" hernias, when there is a lump at lowest middle of abdomen, it has been often found: that if the patient is willing to take exercise he can so strengthen his abdominal muscles that the lump will disap- pear and hernia prevented.

m. J. c Elsom in Archives oi Physical Therapy advocates the regular practice of a series of exercises that will undoubtedly strengthen the abdominal walls and keep the muscles in good oon- dition, ccnsequently lessening the chance oi hernia.

1. Lie flat on face and abdomen and tum the trunk from side to side.

2. Lie on back and raise first one leg and then the other, keeping knees straight. After a. liitlc practice both legs can be raised together. Butiocks must not be raised, A good exercise consists in raising the right leg, 60661118 i9 over the to the left and touchifi! the floor or bed on the left side. and: then raising left leg and touching right side.

This practice will sure- ly have to he stopped some time, and why not stop it now?

In this respect, he is much like his predecessors. I have been informed that the Ministers are urged and importuned by the mem- bers not to prosecute, and the Min- isters have always yielded to this pressure.

The roads that have been well machined this spring and early sum- mer will be pretty well destroyed be- fore the iall rains are half over, if the drains be not kept open and if the governments of both political parties have decided to let this prac- tice oi blocking the drains go on, it would surely be better to adopt, at the public expense, the policy oi con- structing proper bridges over the drains at the entrances to each man's farm. This policy would im- prove the appearance oi the roads and would, I think, result in the sav- ing oi rnany thousands oi dollars a year. Proper drainage is about nine- tenths of road making.

TBE GAME OF DECEPTION

Sir,--’I‘he G-yrator organ is in n. hole. The hole is uncomfortable. Because when you put a crooked thing in a straight hole it is sure to chafe the bends, and skin the bubble spots.

It was looking in the hole for water-muddy water. It. was at- tracted into the depths by an ap- pearance oi political filth, and a foul odor. It iound what it wanted but the smell has reacted. and the casement oi the hole turned out painful misfit. ‘ Its effort to falsify the country's debt, and to fool its own readers has changed its tactics from blus- fer and bluii into that oi excuse making for the financial blunders of its own party. To deceive the public into a belief that the pres- ent Government were “borrowing" with prodigal recklessness it par- aded the issues oi $2,450,000 de- bentures to mislead its readers into belief that this was an addition to debt-incurred by the Stewart- MacMillsn governments. It is caught in its own trap and is strug- gling vigorously to escape. But the hole is a tight one, and a cork- screw form finds a. straight crawl out impossible.

Confronted with the truth that more than half oi the $2,450,000 debenture issue was to pay ofi the overdraits and debt left by the Lea Government, the Gyrabor organ whines out that $300,000 of the en- ormous Liberal Habillty was a her- itage from a preceding administra- tion. Possibly so, and how much oi that in tum was further back a Bell Government liability? Don't forget the fact that wherever there has been a Liberal government there has never failed to be a big debt left to its successors. And the

But think oi the gall of the Gy- rator organ, charging up io the present Government the issue oi $3,450,000 debentures, more than one half of which was to pay oii its own debt, and then have the stupidity to designate this as "bor- rowing."
