RA ISING THE STANDARD

Strong representations have been made to all the universities of the Maritime Provinces by the Educa- tion Departments of Prince Edward island and of Nova Sectla to insist on full matriculation, so as to set a standard for the schools.

Acting on this recommendation, the senate of Dalhousle University has decided that it will, after the autumn of 1934, change entrance requirements, making it compulsory for the student to pass matricula- tion in English, Algebra, ll. foreign language (Latin, Greek, French 01' German) and four other subject-s.

In s circular announcing the pro- posed limiting of conditional admis- |ions at. Dalhousie, quotation is made from the 1932 report of the Osrnegle Foundation on Education In the Maritime Provinces. This re-

port notes that an important feature of the secondary and collegiate rel- etlons in the Marltimes appears in the extensive use made of partial admission in contrast to what is usually considered good practice elsewhere. "It ls generally known," concludes the University circular, "that the supply of good teaching material for schools lii the Maritime Provinces has iiever been so abund- ant as at pi-czuviit.

THE OGPU

In endcavoring to envisage the so-called trial recently concluded 0t British engineers on charges of sabotage and espionage before a. Soviet court. in Moscow, Canadians should remember a cardinal dis- tinction between Russian and Brit- ish justiee. Under our laws the accused are presumed to be inno- cent until they are proved guilty. Under the Stalin regime the guilt of the accused is presumed to be sufllciently established by the fact that they are brought to trial after a secret preliminary inquiry. The purpose cf the trial is to determine the exact degree of the guilt and to hand out fitting punishment. The Soviet courts are. indeed, merely special instruments of a. minority government which rules 180 mil- lion people with ruthless despotism. ivriting in the New York Times Mr. William C. White states that the Ogpu or Soviet secret police, ls "s life insurance organ- ization," without which there could be no Soviet union. Created by the constitution, it ls sll powerful. It constantly exercises itself in- fer- reting out Minter-revolutionary movements and in bringing to book Ruuians and foreigners who may be suspected of lsok of sympathy with the powers that be. The Ogpu is, indeed, the lineal success- oi- of the Choke. It administers the Teri-or which still runs throughout the Soviet Brsmibllcs.

SHORTER CAMPAIGNS

The Ontario Legislature has be- fore it en amendment to the Elec- tion Act which, if passed, will reduce the election period from 41 to 32 days from the time the election writ is issued.

MEDICAL TREATMENT I203 (J ATABACT

Formerly when an individual had a cataract he was informed that. only an operation would save the vision and that sometimes even the operation failed to restore the eye- sight.

our eye specialists now inform us that just. as cancer can be cured by radium, the Z ray, or the knife ii‘ luken in t-ltne, so also can cater- act be prevented and vision pre- served if the cataract is discovered early.

Dr. A. Edward Davis, New York City, has been experimenting on the prevention o1 cataracts for l. number of years and states that cataract is due to some disturb- ance of the working processes 01 the body caused by poison getting into the blood from infection in the body. So an extract is given by the physician that stimulates the fenn- ation of little bodies, which bodies act against these poisons in the blood, and the lens of the eye is able to prevent the formation of catar- act.

In addition to this extract eye drops of various kinds are put in the eye which slightly irritate and inflame the eye. This slight irrita- tion causes the white corpuscles of the blood to increase in the eye reg- ion and they help destroy harmful poisons or organisms.

Dr. Davis reports the results of 500 cases of eyes afflicted with cat- aract, which were treated by this method. In the early cases of the ordinary type of cataract of old age the cataract process was stopped in between B0 and B5 per cent of the cases, and in 40 to 45 per cent, not only ivas the development of the cataract stopped but the eyesight was improved. In many cases the little white cataract spots were les- sened, and in quite a number these little spots were completely ab- sorbed.

Dix. Davis ls convinced that it this internal and. external treatment were widely used, at least half of the operations would not be nec- 0553f)’.

Of course, just as in cancer, it is ,thc eiivly discovery and early tzcat- ment. than. enables the physician to stop the progress of the cataract.

Furthermore, were patients in- formed that cataracts created early could, in the majority of cases be stopped, they would not be us iiittth lllltllfl as at present when all they have to look forward to is operation.

It is in old people having their eyes examined for the fitiliig of glasses, that. early signs of ealartact may be discovered.

Renmnlmr, this iran-zperative treatment is only helpful in certain cases and then only in the early stages.

"NOTES LIKE STARS"

Nightfall, make music to my sor- row-

All shades involving in thine an- cient shadow,

All flocks enfolding in thy stllly meadow-

Make music to my sorrow, tender Nightfall!

Hardly the flocks climb the stone

stecps. Thy music,

A star, a note, a grace-note star supernal

Lead the poor, silly flocks unto folds eternal-

Call with thine antique flute my nameless sorrow. .

A note, s star. a chord of the Moon's still splendor

Resolved of that silciicc no man fathoms,

Down-echoing, star to star; light to these rhythms

Step the flocks. Fall not thy music,

Shy-I rend in your paper" where the R. O. M. Police made s survey of the number of wild geese back st this season and report that only five per cent us here. This may be true in some sections. but I can guarantee it is not lo around hero. 1 have not heard of the Police be- ing around here; however, if they were here today they could count about fifty wild geese within three hundred yards of my house. This would be about I. thousand geese. according to their report if this is only 5 percent of them, and I have never seen that many here. This lq a. fairly good section for wild birds, and there is from 60 to 80 i181‘ 0811i as many geese and brsnt as any year.

With due respect to the R. O. M. Police, I don't think they are in I position to report correctly on the bird situation, as they do not know the feeding grounds and haunts of these wild birds. For while they would be inspecting one place, the birds might be in another, as they move from place to place to feed, according to the tide.

I think if we had this report from the sportsmen from each section. who take an interest in these birds. and love to watch them coining, and going, year in and year out, we could rely on what they would say.

No doubt the birds will be in poor shape going to their hatching grounds this year, and therefore there may be less young birds hatch- ed than usual. But no one will be sure of this until they come back in the fall.

RAINBOW ‘DEQUT

Sin-In Saturday's Guardian, an advertisement says trout season opens April 16th, but lakes stock- ed with Rainbow trout the season does not open until July 1st. It is signed "S. '1‘. Gallant, Supervisor of Fisheries."

Now the old 'I'i'ycn woollen mills pond was stocked with some kind of trout, last year. People supposed them to be Rainbow, and‘ this spring, not quite one year since stocked, strangers are fishing the brook less than 20 chains alabove the pond, as well as the pond. Did the Association stock with Rainbow trout, or do they expect thepecple to know without reading or being told, what trout are to be taken, and what to be left? The ‘last two ytears I took the trouble to get both the Dominion and Local Fish and Game Acts, to familiarize myself with them. but as they are amending the Acts, every session. one does not know where they stand. But the Acts I have do not tell what places are stocked with Rainbow trout or what stock- ed places are to be fished. If the Association are not fooling the people, or if Mr. S. T. Gallant is not playing with the people, please let them or him write that fishing law as plain as Habakuk of old Bible times had to write, so that he may run that i-eadeth it, I am, Sir, etc,
