Lawrence And Tweedsmuir I
In the graduation number of the Royal Mili- tary College Review there is a study of one of the greatest and most enigmatic literary and military figures of modern times by one of the world's ranking historians, The author is Lord Tweedsmuir and his subject is Lawrence of Arabia.
The entire carwzr of Lawrence has been re- garded as mystcrious,but for the popular mind, the most mysterious section of it has not been the war period but the post—war period when he attt-mptcd to drop into obscurity by en- listing as a Ill('Cllill'llC in the Air Force.
To the man who was then John Buchan and who is now Canada's Governor General, Law- rence's Air Force enlistment was no mystery, but it was a cause of considerable concern. To John Buchan, the historian and novelist, Law‘ rence was much more than a figure of history; he was a personal friend. None can speak with more authority on the matter, since it was Lord Tweedsmuir himself who made the arrangements which enabled Lawrence to return to the Air Force after having been compelled to transfer to the Tank Corps, where he was not happy.
Many, who have not believed that Lawrence enlisted in the humblest capacity under an as- sumed name for m_vstery story reasons, have taken it for granted that his enlistment was a dramatization of his protest against British and
"French treaitment of the Arabs.
Lord Tweedsmuir says that the Arab pro- blem had indeed broken his heart, but it had ceased-to worry his conscience after the king- doms of, Iraq and Transjordan. The real rea- son he entered the Air Force was shattered nerves. Three years of hardship, which, in- cluded being wounded nine times, four air crashes, and many bouts of fever and dysent- ery, had taken their toll. He enlisted because of his belief that the only hope of restoring them was to disappear and, under another name, do mechanical work under discipline.
Lawrcnce’s prescription for his own needs was apparently a good one. He eventually did extraordinarly good work in the development of high-speed motor boats for the assistance of sea- planes and of target boats for bombing experi- ments. Both his physical and nervous health seemed completely restored at the conclusion of his term of service early in 1935. He was looking forward to a short holiday and then to settling down to the literary life, but the motor cycle accident in which he \vas killed occurred in May of that year.
Changing Death Rate
A marked change has been noted in the Do- minion’s mortafity rate over the last \ fifteen years. One of the most striking features of the shift is the decline in deaths due to com- municable diseases. But the toll from “degenera- tive” discases is still rising,
The Health League of Canada has provided some comparisons ,in the field as between the years 1926, and r936, the last year for which government figures are available.
To-day diseases of the heart and arteries lead the list with over 2,ooo'dcaths per month in Canada. In 1936 the rate per hundred thousand population was 235.9, as against I77-5 ten years previous. In the western provinces the "climb was the greatest—-a rise of 72-1 per cent. The Maritime provinces and Quebec also showed a much heavier toll, while Ontario had the high- est death rate of all in 1936, 320.2, an increase over 1926 of 26.5 per cent.
In the same period for all Canada the can- cer rate climbed to 39.9 per cent, the diabetes rate to 18 per cent.
The population change in the Dominion, pat- ticulsrly in the West, provides the main ex- planation for this growing toll from “degenera- tlve" diseases that occur to a larger extent after 45 years of age. While in 1911 less than 18 per cent. of our populationwas 45 or over. by 1931 the percentage had grown, to 25.17. This trend is continuing.

Royal Tour Films
It is sincerely to be hoped, says the Montreal Gazette, that the cable from London stating that thousands of feet of film depicting the Royal visit throughout Canada are to be destroyed be- cause of the I2-cent a foot tax which the new budgetimposes on imported films will turn out to be incorrect. If, as stated, the importing com- panies cannot meet the extra cost, surely some arrangement could be made whereby the special 12-cent impost might be lifted on this particular film. '
It is quite possible that the film exhibitors in England do not realize that the film in ques- tion is one of the most important historical docu- ments the British Empire ever has possessed or ever will possess. Moreover, the immense significance of the enthusiasm which marked the welcome of Their Majestics wellnigh every foot of the way across the Dominion and back, as a factor tending to bring the Old Country and the Dominion still closer together within the common bond of loyalty to the Throne, is one against which no mere consideration of the com- paratively trivial amount of revenue that would be lost by admitting the film free should be permitted for one moment to have any weight.

A plea to the American people to lead the way back to peace was voiced by Sir Robert Fal- coner. former Charlbttonian and president emeritus of the University of Toronto, in ad- dressing the Canadian-American Affairs’ Con- ference at St. Lawrence University Canton, N. Y. "Whatever the United States does reflects on us," he said. “If the U. S. gets into trouble with Japan or in Europe, there will be grave consequences for Canada. Canada is on a limb. We are involved in Great Britain's foreign policy and affected by yours. Therefore as a. Canadian, I issue an appeal to you as Ameri- cans. You are the most powerful democracy in the word and you can bring the world back to peace. As the United States has to bear a re- sponsibility for the failure of the League, I ask you to lead the way for a new league for world order, and I believe that you can do it by first bringing together those who renounce war as an instrument of ‘nattionpl policy.”

' / MOST CASES WITH BEN’! 03 DlI!"LEC'.I‘ED SEPTIJM REQUIRE N0 TREATMENT
Most physlclsns my little or no attention to bends in the septum- ths pafiltlon between the W0 nos- trils. a matter of fact. a nose with 3 straight septum is almost rare. It is estimated that perhaps one in every five or ten is about the average finding.
The reason little or ‘no attention is paid to s bent or deflected sep- tum is that the physician figures that there is no difference in air space between 50 and 50 each side in a. straight septum and 60 and so with a bent septum: they both add up to 100. run, of course. refers to slight bends or deflections.
What about severe bands or de-
severe deflection cause symptoms?
when the deflection is so severe that it actually closes up one side of the nose there will not be any air going to or coming from the lungs on that side. This means lack of ventilation of the sinuses on. that side of the head and lack of draining of any mucous from the sinuses.
Dr. W. S. Syme. Glasgow, whom I have uoced before in the Brit- lsh Med cal Journal. tells us that middle ear and catarrhal condi- tions are found very often with de- flection of the septum. When severe, it may cause pain by pres- sing against the side wall of the nose. However, the blockage of the little opening from sinus lnt-o the nose prevents mucous or pus from dralnlng out into nose and throat. causing severe psln from pressure. In these cases the bend or deflec- tion is high up In the nose due to lnjury—football. boxing, or a fall.
The point. about this is that while most of us have is bent sep- tum and no treatment is require in cases of sinus trouble, catorrh, or middle ear conditions where good ventilation and drainage is necessary. one with a bent sep- tum ls more likely to have severe pain and require’ operation than one whose septum is straight.
