’A UNIQUE EVENT,

Now that the Provincial Exhibit- ion is over, the next big event is the Maritime Air Tour at the Upton Airport tomorrow afternoon. Judging by the program, this event promises to eclipse anything hitherto seendn the Niinritimc Provinces. Ii; includes competitive acrobatics, a spectacular parachute jump, all‘ speed and relay races, formation flying, autogiro ex- hibition, iirvcrted flying and stunt- ing, and many other features. Mrs. J. S. Jenkins, whose plane is a sister

‘Ship to the one in which Captain Moililon crossed the Atlantic, will be seen in fiction, as will also Van- hcc, ilie Belgian ace, and a noted Frvncll flier, Lucien Gendron.

Air pageants draw enormous crowds of spectators in other places, and lhLTc is no reasnn why the some appreciation should not be sliovm of the efforts of the man- ugomont of the Upton Airport to put Prince Edward Island "onvthe in-up" from on aerial standpoint. AS Dr. J, s. Jenkins and visiting fliers have pointed out, this Province is ideally situated as a landing and starting-off place for European air (lights. The great advantage is the absence of fog, which s0 frequently interferes with flying schedules in other provinces. Added to this an the facilities at the Upton Airport umn which competent experts have pronounced most favorably.

Apart from the spectacular feat- ures of tomorrow's pageant the event marks a milestone in the avtation history of the Province. It; value is educational as well as rec- rcational, It will also be a source of much favorable publicity for the Island. such a display may not be seen here again for some years, and those who have not already planned iittrnding should give second thought to the unique opportunity now within their reach, The main program starts at 2 p. m. but there will doubtless be heavy trafllc on the roads and those who can do so should endeavor to arrive early and lvoid the rush.

ZIDING OUR FARMERS

An interesting aspect of the tariff porefcrcnces obtained by the Cen- adian Govemififih’: at the Imperial Conference, particuarly to the people o: this Province, 25 with ref- erence to the egg trad-a Canada will now receive from three to iour cents preference in the United Kingdom market, and this should be of mat- erial advantage to Island producers. The situation is thus summed up in a recent article by the Canadian Press:

The United Kingdom produces about half the eggs it requires. Last year it. imported 252,000,000 dozen, and the year before 205,000,000 dozen. That ls a wonderful market in which to have u preference of from 3 cents to 4 cents a dozen. Not only that, but during the Im- perial Conference all the Common- wealths came w agreement that the

Canadian system of grading should be adopted throughout the Empire. That was a great tribute to W. A. Brown, Director of the Poultry Div- ision of the Canadian Department of Agriculture. It constitutes an Empire-wide acceptance of the theory that. the quality 0t an egg can be judged by the size of its air- cell. It also is an acceptance of the 'pgngdian grades as to sizes.

All these advantages probably will mid Canada with hcr egg surpluses below normal. The low prices mBY have discouraged farmers from keeplng up their flocks of pullets. flowever it should not take very long to remedy this.

On Aug. 1 the cold storages in the Dominion hCld l1,2l0,'l88 dozen eggs. 'I'hot seems like a lot of e888. but in reality the flvc year average for Aug. 1 was 15,602,902 dozen.

surrzcnvivr REASON

Apparently unfamiliar with plat tariff practices, our loccl contem- porary has been criticising the sec- recy maintained in MIN! 1° n" Canadian tuft! concessions at thl Imperial Conference. The inform- ation thus for voucjfiafed is that In 22o instances‘ new or increased margins of profenencrhave been accorded to Britith industries. De- tailed information will not be avail- able to the public until bmuihl- down in the terifl revisions which one to be put through the House of Commons at an October session. No Government in Canada. if. may be pointed out, has followed mi other practice. No ministry since the establishment of Confed- oration has revealed maim- wit! changes except on ‘the floor o! Parliament. Al every bulimia mm knows, it hubeemendstill ismeces- sary to follow this course 1n order to protect the national revenue and trade stability.

auomvc THE ~ GLOBE

It is amusing tn nofcthnt the first political criticism appearing for some months past in the To- ronto Globe ll avidly bellied on by our local contempo y tn its issue o! yesterday. This b the first time since the Imperial Conference mot at Ottswl tint it has seen fit to quote its on loading party organ. The Globe's apprecia- tion of Mr. Bennett's efforts at the Conference wu l. bitter pill to the parley knockers, and doubtless con- tributed to the nausea. of which our contemporary complained on feld- lng so many fine tributes to the Can “ Prime Minister.

The Globe's present criticism 1m. to do with the attitude of Hon. Ar- thur Sauve, Postmaster-General, toward the appointee to a position in the poet office at Shelburm, Ontario. At this distance the mer- ite of the case would be very dif- ficult to determine: but the Globe article, according to our contain. Dorarv, is "well worth reproducing."

Evidflllly not in full, however! In the original article, '11» Globe's first reference is tn the perpetra- tlon of "a political outrage" by the former Postmaster General in the Mackenzie King Government in Lun ection with the dismissal of an eX-wldler mvlova n limool. 11m, °1 000m. would navel- do for our contemporary! Its first concern, therefore, was to deeopitete the Globe editorial. After performing this operation ft thnw the severed head into the waste-basket, fitted a stuffed heed, hastily improvised, upon the corpse, and exhibited the mangled remains in its columns under the appropriate title: "Grog Violation,"

"Mr. Brownlee," says the Edmonton newspaper, “ought, therefore, to leave us in no doubt as to whether he intends to follow Mr. Woodsworth or stick by the original U. F. A. principles."

The current Weekly Review of

Business, supplied by R. G.

Commitments for Fall are in excess of the volume st this time last year, salesmen are sending in more encouraging reports Ifrom their territories, and in many instances factories have been un- able to meet the specified shipment dates on many desired articles." There is just another evidence of the upswing of business in this country, where all signs are point- ing to a revival.

ANOTHER. METHOD OI‘ PREVENTING STIFF JOINTS

Ono of the mistakes of the past was allowing a ioint to become stiff after an attack of rheumatism or grthritls as it is now more fre- quently called.

I have suggested on previous oc- casions that the joint be heated well with hot towels for flve or ten minutes, then movement of the joint by the patient himself or an attendant for two or three minutes and then the use of hot towels again for another ten minutes.

The idea of this treatment is that the heat applied before any move- ment cf the joint is done, warms up the joint, increases the circula- tion, acts as a sort o! anaesthetic. 8° that when movement is given there is little or no pain and. consider- able exercise canthus be given the joint. This exercise breaks up any little adheslons or fibrous bands that are keeping the joint from moving properly.

Then when the hot water is ap- plied again, after the exercise. these little adhesidns or material from these adhesions gets carried away in the circulation.

However Dr. M. R. Ray, London, England, tells us of another meth- od of preventing or loosening stiff joints that is getting excellent re- suits.

It is called the ‘pool bath.’ The temperature is about or somewhat above the body temperature that is

The lower temperature is used for more recent cases, and the higher chronic

The bath is of sufficient size to allow the patient to stand, sit, and walk a step or two. .

A limb under water weighs less and moves with less fatigue than when not under water. The limbs are supported and movements that would be otherwise impossible can be performed.

"The importance of getting a patient to move his stiffened joints at the earliest possible moment after the inflammation has passed off, cannot be too strongly emph- asized." No joint can possibly gct back to its normal healthy state unless it does what it is intended to do, that is move.

This looks as if it might be an improvement on the methods we have been using to prevent stiff joints.
