selves closely resemble that foodstuff. It is u if a vitamin essential for life were kept from getting into the bacterial cell because the sul- phonamide had alreay filled the gap. This pro- cess of “interference by inhibition" is of im- portance because it means that s knowledge of bacterial chemistry and feeding habits may point the way to the further preparation of drugs capable of wrecking some essential process upon which bacterial life depends. This may lead to great developments in the future, for there are still gaps where those sulphonamides at present available fail lanieritably. The whole group of diseases due to viruses. of which true influenza is one, are not fundamentally influenced, sl- though complications due to other bacteria may be attacked. Nor as yet has any sulphonamide been found which will deal with the bacillus causing tuberculosis. Many patients all over the world, animal as well as human, owe their lives to the sulphonamides. War surgery has be- come very much safer since these drugs were available. The Times Special Correspondent in North Africa wrote recently of mortality statis- tics that would amaze the world. Sepsis in 111st campaign was lsrgely controlled by sulphons- mide drugs. Never in so short s space of time has such a revolution been wrought in theitreat- mcnt of so many diseases. Although other wes- pons must still be used in conjunction with the sulphonamides, there is no therapeutic agent to- day with a popularity so well tested and so worthily attained.

Apart from the contributions made by Bri- fish Colonial Governments towards the cost of their local military forces, the voluntary gifts from the Colonial Empire towards the prosecu- tion of the war now total over 23,000,000 pounds ($102,120,000). Monetary gifts fall into two main groups-—gif_ts for the prosecution of the war and gifts for war charities; and they have come from every ptafllu0f jheItColonial Empire.

The Australian general election takes place on Saturday 21st inst., a. fortnight hence. The campaign has been a stormy one. Commentators are cautious about predicting the result though some think that the tide thus far is running in the Government's direction, largely because of the opposition’; disimity. The preferential vot- ing system and the emergence yf more than ‘zoo independent candidates makes the result particularly open. '

An account has appeared in an Enxllsh paper of a wedding at St. Giles Cathedral in Edinburgh in which the bride wore a wedding fir“! 01' 5P1!" glass. She was Miss Helen Nairn Munro, who is lecturer 1n Rlass etching at the Edinburgh College of Art. and she married Professor W. E S Turner, of the 8185s tlcchnulogly department oi‘ Shefflelds University. The dross was made of six yards of pale blue spun glass which is said to be as fine 1n texture as silk and perfect- ly adaptable-to any purpose for which fine cloth is used. Her hat, her handbag 11nd even her shoes were on Bless fbarlc, and her dress was painted with flowers made from another glass product. We could refer to this wedding as a "glassy 8111112" and express a hope that it may not end in a shattered ro- manoe. but we shall refrain.
