A Gallant Soldier Not only France, but the entire world mourns the death of Marshal Joffre, "saviour of France“ in the World War. After an illness of some months, during which he suffered the amputation of a leg, the gallant soldier passed away on Saturday morning. For a. fortnight he had lain at death's door, science being power- less to help him in his last and rreatcst struggle. There has been much vain controv- over the question, "who won 11:0 war!" No conclusive answer has been given, or can be liven; but there is no doubt that it was Joffres rsi -ri of the secret of command. hi; impezturbablc will, his fearless and imruffled mind in adversity and his v sound common-i sense, that‘ prevented a disaster which might conceivably have resulted in Germany winning the war, certainly, in the fact. since Acknowledged, that at the initial Battle of the Marne, Germany “lost the war" lies the lustre and renown of the chief hero of France's great victory of that date. Europe has seen many Heat, generals; but there have been few of’ the sturdy character and - monality’ of the late Marshal Joffre.

it Will not make pleasant reading for Canadians to be told that Can- ada ranks second in the records of fatal accidents. The United States leads the list of all countries in thc world for its death rate in accidents, which is 79.2 pﬂ‘ 100,000. Canada comes second with 62.5 deaths P61’ 100,000 of the population, while Eng- land and Wales have only 41. These are the figures Just published by Dr. Louis I. Dublin of the Metropolitan Life. In the course of a. recent ad- dress he pointed out that motor ve- hicles were responsible for 31,000 of the 97,000 persons accidentally killed in the United Stalss in 1929. In ad- dition to these deaths there were 1.000.000 with injuries. These figures are sufficient evidence of the need for greater care, hour by hour, ff ac- cidents are to be averted.

The population of Japan, by the census of October 1, is 04,447,000. It is an increase of vcry nearly eight and a half millions since 1020, and the percentage of increase during this decade u" a. triﬂe higher“ than during the preceding ten years. The effects of s. falling birth-rate, to which some are inclined to look as the only check upon intolerable con- !gestion within the Japanese islands, ‘are not yet visible. Until the annual igrowth of close to a. million a. year shows a. marked decline, Japan, to éfeed her people, will have to look to increasing industrialization and for- : elgn markets.

When filth In the justice of the courts disappears. society is in dan- ger of disintegration. Revelations of a most startling character have rec- ently come to light in New York. What was happening became known through the confessions of a paid police ‘spotted’ whose duty it was to secure evidence for which he was paid so much per. False witnesses, perjured lawyers, forty members of the police force, and venial officials are all implicated. The whole story is one of the most revolting in the history of courts.

The outside world will never understand the British attitude to- wards the Jew. While Hitler is iri- ﬁaming young Germany with his anti-Semitic outbursts; while America is banning thc Jew from exclusive clubs and even certain hotels; while Austria, Rumania, and Russia are joining in the world movement against the Jew—Australio chooses Sir Isaac Isaacs as its ﬁrst home-appointed Governor-General. Such a choice is a tribute to the man and to the Empire as a whole, and DFOVES once more that ‘the splendid qualities of the Jevrish pco- plc find their fullest outlet in their adopted British citizenship.

President Hoover says advertising is one of the vital organs of America's entire economic and soc- ial system. Local advertisers should remember this when planning the extent of their advertising for i931.

At the convention of‘ Ontario Liberals held in Toronto some days ago, a resolution was adopted cen- suring Premier Bennett for the char- acter of the trade proposals he sub- mitted to the Imperial Conference. "On the ground that they bred dis- sension and hijury to the nations forming the British Empire, the con- vention disapproved of Premier Ben- netts proposals. It was said that the proposals were unfair to Great Britain and did not. reflect the views of the people of’ Canada. They threw the whole matter of intra- Empire trade needlessly into thc arena of party politics, and created in the Mother Country definite party hostility toward the position taken by the Dominion under Mr. Bennett's leadership." Commenting on this partisan deliverance, ‘the Ottawa Journal suggests that the politicians who framed it might profit by read- ing up a little on Canadian history. Twenty-eight years ago Sir Wilfrid Laurier placed a proposal before thc British Government of precisely the same tenor as that laid before the Imperial Conference by Mr. Bennett last October.

If Britain had abandoned Cob- denlsin bctimes, it need never have adopted the dole, which is the in- evitable consequence of free trade. If a country ‘will not protect its workers in productive occupations, it; ls poetic justice that it be obliged to feed them in idleness.

Some years ago in trying to nnd out the number of conditions that may cause headache, I llstcd over twenty, so that just how many there really are I am unable to state.

However headache is a serious matter for the physicians trying to treat it and also for the patient. Just how much pain the patient ls suffering and just what type of pain, only the patient knows, and so just how he describes the pain, and its exact location is the only guide the physician has in diagnosing the trouble. . The ﬁrst step as Dr. A.W. LuForge.

Chicago, tells us. is ‘to ﬁnd whether the pain is duo to some condition

inside the head itself or from some other place in the body. Headaches due to inﬂammation in the brain itself have a sudden onset, fever, terriﬁc pain on both sides, without any relief, last for a few days only, and cause stiffness of the neck. Pain due to pressure of some kind in the brain can cause headaches which are more gradual in onset, last longer, intense pain without any periods when patient is free from pain and are not; relieved by the

Lynching In U. S.

(Mall and Empire) r Twenty-five persons were lynched in the United States in the year just closing, which is more than twice the number in 1929. and precisely twenty- flve time! too many. But in the ‘past decade there has been a gratify- _ing decrease of these crimes, there having been sixty-one In 1020. In 1892 the lynchings numbered 255. 1t is possible that there have been years for which the statistics were incom- plete, and this shocking figure may have been exceeded, But taking into consideration the fact that the popul- ation of the United States has stead- ily increased, it is plain that lynch- ings are on the decrease and that the time may come when they will alto- gether disappear. Of course, mob inurdcrs may persist, just as other murders will persist, irrespective of laws or public opinion. But lynch- ing as an institution or, indeed, as a pastime, as once it was considered, will cease to be a. blot on the United States and, if mobs still exercise their vengeance on rare occasions, their victims will not be exclusively iiegroes, as they are at present. One of the reasons for the gradual decay of the practice is, no doubt, thc education of public sentiment in the

Headache due to eyc strain ls not as severe as any of the above, but is more of a tired feeling following long use of the eyes and occurs in the afternoon or toward evening. It is relieved by resting the eyes. Pain from gas formation or cmi- stipalion is usually not so severe, can he in the forehead, top, or hawk of fiend, and is often relieved by belch- ing up gas, or by intestinal iiiovc- merit.

Cattle Trade Resuined

(Ottawa Journal) An cieouraging development of

shipments from the port of Afmtrcal for thc 1930 season amounted to 5, 1 2B0 head, mainly in thc last three l, months. November alone saw 2,260; hoard shipped, while October rc-i ccrdcd 1,246 and September 1.641. “lhcn comparisons arc made with fol-moi‘ years this season's total sccms zina-ll, for in 1925 cattle shipments

out of the port‘ of Montreal reached ‘a. total of 52.764, and in mo uwy I 12H‘??? 30.670, But in that yxém‘ a dc-

pnanrl for Canadian cattlc arose in

Mississippi foods, and the British markets no longer were sufficiently attractive and llic shipments fell uwny to nothing. But with the light- er demand for Canadian cattle in tho south in the past year, and the high- er American tariff against imported cattle, it became necessary to look about for markets.

In thc 12 months ending with October 31 last, exports of Canadian cattle to tho Unitccl States numbered 88,747 hrail valutl at $4,53l.3ll7 EZPHIFL 245L470 head valurd at $15!. 090,592 in the previous period.
