THURSDAY, AUGUST 29, 1929 *

Of chief interest to the Maritimes h the Canadian National Exhibi- tion now under way at Toronto is the joint exhibit of the three Mari- time Provinces. Towards this exhibit the three Provinces contributed, Nova Scotia paying $5.000, New Bruns- wick $3.500 and Prince Edward Island 81,500. Maritime newspapers strong- ly supported the appropriations and every encouragement was given to induce the Provincial Governments to make the best display possible of the products, the industries. the tourist advantages and agricultural ‘opportunities in each of the Pro- vinces. Omciais accompanied the ex- hibits to Toronto. charged with the duty of giving all available informa- tion to visitors and of keeping their respective Provinces in the limelight. The Government sent from this pro- vince the Hon. B. W. LePage.

Enquiry at the ProvinciabDepart- lent of Agriculture yesterday failed to elicit any information with respect to the details of the Prince Edward Island section of the exhibit. Were Island potatoes or other agricultural products being exhibited? The De- partment did not know definitely. Some Island potatoes may have been cont up. Then again, they may not have been. Probably they were not. It was too early to prepare an exhi- bition shipment of Island potatoes; they would not. be at their best and they would only give a wrong im- pression of the quality of Island stock. The same with other agricul-

posed

men for the discussion oi economic problems affecting the three Pro- vinces. The proposal is that the con- ference be called by the Maritime Board of Trade. and that it be held in the Confederation Chamber, Pro- vincial Bullding, Charlottetown, in late September Word has now been received Premier Saunders has consented to the use of the Chamber by tbs Con- ference, and that already a number of Senators have been approached and have quite enthusiastically fav- ored the proposal. The conference will be of a strictly non-political na- ture; it will be the first of its kind to be held in Canada and should prov: of far-reaching benefit in con- centrating attention on the economic difficulties under which the Maritimes have been laboring,

The following are among the items tentatively suggested for the agenda:

or early October

Transportation problems; Maritime consideration for concessions to other Provinces; The Covenant of Confederation; The Fisheries;

Immigration;

Public debt allowances.

Later the Agenda. will be entrusted to a carefully selected committee with a vi-zw to achieving the very best re- suits.

The significance of holding the pro- conference in the historic chamber in which the idea originated of a union of the Colonies of British North America into the Dominion of Canada need not be labored. It was largely through the non-fulfillment

One of his favorites is about a negro, held in court on a charge of vag- rancy. He gave his name as John D. " "kefeller. Scratching his griz- iiled poll in perplexity-at the outburst of laughter, the old rial-key exclaimed. “Yassah. dat’s mah real name an‘ it's _ben a trial to me all inah life. Judge you’ Honahl"

Th9 oil king's pet yarn is said to be one about a nervous woman pas- senger on a train who as a climax to a hundred foolish questions, asked the conductor: ‘

“Why do you wave your hand when you want the train to start?"

"Oh," replied the tormented man. "When I wave my hand, that means get to blazes out of here."

Some one who overheard the con- ductors tart answer warned him that the inquisitive woman was the wife of a. director of the railway com- pany.

“_Phewl" exclaimed the conductor. "Guess I better apologize."

He paused by the woman's seat and began a fulsome apology, taking oi! his hat before he began.

"She didn't say anything," explains John D. "She just waved her hand.”

A scribe from Boston came to Moncton and returned recently. whereupon he wrote to a Boston pap- er things unattempted yet in prose or rhyme about the famous Bore of the Railway City. He disparaged and belittled it, and among other things he set down that the guide books tell thatthls great natural wonder is something not to be missed; you must get up, even at four in the morning and see the great tidal wave. five feet high as it comes rushing and roar- ing up the river. ‘

He writes that he went to see it, prepared to be enthralled by the stu- pendous vision. And this is what he

f ~ _ , ‘ .. b B» Iumesxw, Barton. MD. vanioosa veins VERY common

I have written more than once about varicose veins of the legs. for the reason that during examination of recruits icr the army, and since that time, the number of cases is cer- tainly more than was formerly rus- pected. ‘

You wiliremember that the treac- ment before and during the war was to remove these outer or superficial veins by operation, and depend upon the deeper veins to carry the blood back to the heart.

Then research men discovered that by injecting these veins they could cause them to dry up and look like _piec€s of string. _ - '

At first there were a few "accid- ents" frcm thirmethod as some of the fluid injected got’ into the. tissue surrounding the vein and caused ulcers that took a long time to heal.

And so, many members oi the pro- fcsslon have been waiting to see how successful this injection treatment would prove to be, and if the “cure" would be permanent.

'With over nfty thousand cases treated by the injection method, com- pared with the record of cases where the veins were removed by the knife, there is no question but that. the in- jection method has proven its super- iority, '

while deaths from the operation are not common, the chance o! such an occurance is sixteen times more likely by the use of the knife than by the injection method.

Another point that means much in the patient and to the physician also, is the chances ol other veins in the leg becominll varlcosed after the treatment. _

It was found that this happened much more frequently after- ghc on". ation by the use of the knife, than by the injection method.

This means then that in suitable cases, and the majority are suitable. that they safe and simple injection method will now be the choice of physicians. '

HIS MAJESTTS TRIBUTE TO THE MOVEMENT

On the occasion of the World Jam- boree at Arrows‘ Park. Birkenhead, where 50.000 Boy Scouts are eiebrat- mg the coming-of-age of the Scout Movement, the King has honored the Chief Scout, Sir Robert Baden-Pow- ell. by conferring a peerage upon him. The following announcement was issued from i0. Downing Street: “The King has been pleased to ap- prove that "the dignity of a Barony of the United Kingdom be conferred upon Lieutcna ‘-General Sir Robert Baden-Powell, Bt., 0.0.58.6" 0.0.1]. 0., K.C.B."

The Prince of Wal-es, who spent a night in camp with the Scouts, de- livered a message from the K1118. wishing them God-speed.

Mr. Mortimer Schifl. one of the senior membe a of the‘ banking firm of Kuhn, Iloeb and Co., of New York, who is a vice-president and in- ternational commissioner of the Boy Scouts’ Association, was received pri- vately by the Prince of Wales at the camp and presented to him a cheque for £10,000 to establish a fund to b6 used by the Boy Scouts‘ Association of Great Britain in the personaldis- cretion of the Chief Scout for the promotion of international friendship among boys. Mr. T. W, Whitehead, of Dunblme. Perthshire, has handed to the Chief Scout a cheque for £5.- 000 for the association.
