FATS ARE GOOD F0005 i BUT DELAY DIGESTION

Knowingi that fat". are good foods, and that they are the richest soume . of energy-twice as rich as protelnz‘ or starch foods-you may wonder‘ why you are advised not to cat wp . much fat, and not to eat much food t that is fried or cooked in fat.

"The presence of fat tends to de- lay the passage of food from the stomach. FY5015 rich in fat. are held ‘ longer in the stomach and delay the sense of hunger. Because fats - leave the stomach more s‘0wly, a meal supplying an appreciable amount of fat is more satisfying to the appetite. Hunger does not as a rule occur as soon after a meal containing fat; as after a meal of - equal caloric or fuel value of pro- iein or carbohydrates.’

t If, then, fat is such a rich and ll tfsfving food why SlTOUlG it not; 11.-e eaten freely?

Kathcritie Mitciieil Thoma, in her book "Food in Health and Dis- ease", says:

“Pie ence of fat In foods. partic- tilary those fats not liqveficd at ‘ body temperature, tendx to delay or

slow up the flow of digestive juice 1

- "This 2's the reason for the “in- digestibilitg." of fatty foods. Fats, and foods rich in fats. are normrfly

oomph-few" digested but. the dgel-l ‘ion is ncmewhat- SIOWII‘. Fat in- ‘focds forms a protective coating:

slower. "If the food. potato for ex-

ample. is put into the fat. at moder- ‘ate tempsiuture, and the iotato lbecomcs rat-her wet‘. saturated with jfat, each particle of tlEIYClI will be covered with a fi‘in of fat.

Mr. King At Geneva

(Vancouver Province)

Mr. Mackenzie Ktng has gone t0 Geneva and maide the speech he was expected to make, and after it no one can say where Carmela-or at least. the Government of Canada- t-eaily stands about the League of Nations. Mr. Kins. =5 his manner so often is, does not blow hot for the Covenant and he does not blow cold. Mr. King coos. If cooing could DW- s/five the peace of Europe, Mr. King would show them how to do it.

Mr. King tells the other nations of the League that it is the Parliament of Canada which must; make the decision for or against war, “in the light of the existing circumstances." He holds, because of the failure of sanctions in the case of Ethiopia.

because of the breakdown of thel

Covenant, that sanctions have prov- ed to be unworkable. He talks sooth-

ingly of mediation rather than pun- -

isbment, of “full enquiry into com- plaints," of doing something or oth- er undefined to halt the race of armaments.

The whole suggestion of Mr. King's speech-Jot‘ it ts all suggest- ion, imcl most of it can mean any- thing or nothing—-is that you can make a solemn covenant to do cer- tain things in certain contingencies, and then, when the time comes, you can decide for yourself whether it will pay you to do it or not. He does not; put. it as bluntly as that and contriiriwise he speaks of a general umvillingness to incur obligations which it may not be possible to ful- flll.

But that is what Mr. Kings at.- titude on the whole question of in- ternational collective security comes to-that Canada may be in the League when the sun shines and out when the storm clouds gather. He ivouid not amend the Covenant, ap- parently, but he would not fight for it ‘

He thinks that you can not ex- pact the Covenant to work until you get, all the nations in the League- Meaitwhile, speaking for one na-tLon, our tuition of Canada, he tells the others that they need not count on us when the crisis comes. We may stand by the Covenant or we may not. It will be for Parliament to decide.

Of course there is no realism in this attitude, as Mr. King ought to know and as he probably knows vet-y well. It. is a. highly plausible thing to say that Parliament in a parliamentary democracy must de- cide the question of war. In history it has always been, practtaliy it is almost impossible to see how it. can ever be otherwise, that the execu- tive of the nation must act ﬁrst, ticivmg‘ no alternative and abide the verdict of the nation afterivards.

“Parliament only to decide war" is a flue phrase in the language of cooing; it means iiardiy anything at alt in the world of reality.

But. that is not the effective issue. The issue is that you either make a Covenant and mean it and stand by ir, or you do something else. You can make a Covenant, and break it when the time comes, and you can have a dishonored League for your pains, as almost we have now. Or you can say that the whole project of international peace by agreement In advance is visionary, has been

Let’s Have Dignity

More

(London Advertiser)

The suggestion made by Attor- trey-General Roebuck on his re- tum from a, visit. to England that all Ontario magistrates should don formal morning wear at court ses- sions has had a marked appeal, and formal morning coats, gray striped trousers, wing collars and black ties have broken out like a rash all over the province. This has been good for the haberdaslt- ery business and is also having the desired effects of increasing the dignity of magistrates‘ courts, The latter result. is welt illustrated by what occurred in the maElSlYBItYS court of Huron county at. Goderich when for the ﬁrst time in the county's history Provincial Magis- trate J. A. Makins entered the

courtroom dressed in the latest magisterlal garb. His entry was electrical in its effect. Coa-tlcss

traffic officers scurried for their tunics and others slieked down their hair. Only the crown nt- torney, attiied in white flftlmClS, was tinperturbed. Spectators nudg- ed one niiollter and whispered something about swallowtalls. One called the morning coat a “Port Albert.“ All beholders agreed that Magistrate Makins, who most of his life has been a hardy son of the soil, wears his new clothes with grace and dignity.

If the effects of the new sartor- ial edict are so good, it seems too bad not to carry the reform a lit- tle further. For instance, we have always felt that some occupants of the prisoners box display a certain lack of dignity in their attire and general appearance which detracts from the solemnlty of the court's atmosphere. If all prisoners could only be persuaded to have a clean shave and don aﬂowltig robe of some sort with immaculate linen in evidence, their appearance when

they rise to answer to their names would be vastly more imprr-sslvi and, remembering that; a man l. Judged by the linen he wears, they might even 1 expect n. little ruori leniency from the faultlessly attlr~ ed ﬁgure on the bench. Think iilsi of the lawyers. If each of them wore a. legafgown and a wig, mam, a magistrate would be spared llll embarrassment of confusing then with the prisoners.

The case of the newspaper r1- porters in attendance is siigiiti; more difficult. It would be hare to camouﬂage them in such a way that they would resemble anything but; newspaper reporters. Even ll they were decked out tn mortar. board bats they would probably wear them at a raklsh angle which would be a dead give-away. But clean white surplicea withaseribe‘: inkhom and quill pen suspended by a girdle at. the waist: would be em- blematic of their high calling be- sides adding immensely to the sol- emnity of the proceedings — or would it?

The trouble about all these trap- pings, such as robes and chains of office for tniiyors, cutaway coati for magistrates, and uniforms iii general, is the fact that; the divid- ing line between dignity and pani- poslty is so thin and the descent from the sublime to the ridiculous is so fatally facile. The average CZLHHIllKIILfICCLISlOIIICG to the $011115- what ft"eo and easy habits anrIetis~ toms of his democratic domain ﬁnds it difficult to suppress iasmiie when authority starts “putting oti the dog." That sort of thing may be all right. in England, where .\lr, Roebuck apparently got the idea They are long accustomed to ciasi distinct-tons over there which an not recognized in this country, vvhere the doctrine is so tenac- iously held that "Jack is as good as his master." But if the dig- nity of the law Is enhanced by morning coats and striped gray trousers, by all means let's liiivi them. Let no prisoner go sadly w jail feeling 11s a military offt-udei would if he were sentenced by! colonel who neglectd to don hii
