Perhaps the most signiﬁcant move- ‘ meat. in the world today is that from i the farm to the city. The rapidity? of this movement. may be gauged by‘ the fact that in the decade preceding the census of 1921 the urban 001W" latlon of Canada increased by 1.079,- 115, while fhe rural population iv- crouedby only 502,665. or roughly speaking’, the population cf the cl:- iesJnci-eased by a million, while that ofthe country (as apart item the urbanicentres) increased by only half a million.

SETTLEIZS IN CANADA

"It i5 anonuriccd" says ihe Mone- ton Thncs, “that Hon. Robert Forke, Canadian Minister of Immigration, has a new plan for inducing settlers to come to Canada. But it must oc- cur to most people that it should not be necessary to coax and pay settlers o come ‘lo Canada. This country has the largest unoccupied wheat areas in the u-orld. it has the greatest 1'9- msilning pulpwood and other timber resources, it has the mast exiensive coast and sea fisheries in the world. it has the worldst richest nickel and asbestos mines, with great deposits of coal, iron and other minerals, and yet our Government is takinglmil- liens of money collected in taxes in the effort f0 altract new settlers, while many of our own people are leaning tize country. If Mr. Forke and his colleagues would devote more attention to formulating policies that

would result in the detrclopment 0i'_

EDITORIAL NOTES

Mr. W. C. S. McLurc pointed out in the budget debate yesterday. it is very difficult for the Opposition to discuss the public affairs of the Pro- vince when the Ministers in charge of the departments lag behind in their reports. Owing to the ill- ness of the Hon. Mr. 1e: the House will have no speech on his depart- ihent at mu session, and although the budget debate hu been in prog- rm now for several days, the Minis- m- of. Public Works maintained a stubborn pllunca until int night. This obvious attempt at jockeying {q- pa-

Notes ByThe Way

The late Basil King in hi! llhlb book recently published, treat: of the Seven Torche: of Character. One chapter treats of the importance of honesty, and stresses dishonest, as a great national vice of his country, the United States. “Not only has it. become our national vioe —cf proportions far more appalling than the drink evil ever was"—-he says “but there is almost nopublic opinion to counteract it." He goes on to remark that the press does not talc: it up; the Church does not take it up; good citizens hold no meetings to protest against lifeless submission to such attacks upon their public safety, and take no measures to see that it shall not be indefinitely repeated. Apart from what is done by the police no thought of any kind is given to the subject.

Mr. King finds . it a matter "of common knowledge that the crime record in this countryis the most ap- palling in the world. but nobody seems to care. Three years ago the American Bar Association published a report giving the statistics o! crime-that is crime directly or in- directly connected with dishonesty in one or another of its many forms- and some good people expected the churches to take it up and deal with it. But the pulpit was practically dumb. They left such matters to the police.

But that is not the worst of it ac- cording to the writer we are following. He tells that it is right out of the churches that the grafters, thieves and bandlm spring. The shady men of busines have been brought up in Sunday schools and are sending their children there. Thousands of thernhave been choir boys, altar boys, members of church clubs, of Boy Scout troops, of Bands of Hope, according to religious affiliations. Th-ey are not as a rule dark creat- ures of the underworld; they come from respectable families. What they have lacked is sound moral training. The wickedness of theft has doubtless been pointed out to them, but it has not been ground ln.. How often do our ministers of re- ligion talk to us of such a. theme as honesty? What Savonorola. what Wesley, ever warns that dishonesty. from small filfering up to stagger- ing nation-wide fraud, is undermin- ing our characters both as l. people and as lndivuais? This very morn- ing, “ln the language of-thc book. I read in the papers that yesterday the houses of five of my friends and neighbors were broken into, and that the church which I attend had its poor-box robbed. 5o it is all over the land, a daily annoyance when it is no worse. It is not so in other countries, even in some that we think backward."

Mr. King goes on to tell oi’ spend- ing some months at a large hotel of international reputation in Cannes. France. He was locking his‘ room door behind him on going out when u passing housekeeper reminded him that there was no need to do so. He found it true as she mid him, th:t nobody locked their rooms except when going to bed. The chapter on honesty closes with a question and a warning.

“What is the flaw in the Ameri- can character which makes us look like a nation of potential thieves?" the author asks. Some one else will have to give the answer which Mr. Basil King declined to give. His closing words of warning are these. “I cannot but feel that the situation is serious enough to warrant crying a warning from the housetopa in season and out of season, whether men will hear or whether they will forbear."

We hope and believe that thing's are better in Prince Edward mend. but the daily recordsof our police courts and magistrates courts lhow that n‘ very large proportion of the criminal charges that come before them have their origin in' one or other of the many forms of dishon- esty. Petty tbievery, stealing foxes and other valuables. house-breaking, burglary and hold-ups come within this category. We hnve a plenty of preaching and teaching from pulpit and press commending prohibition u temperance, and ‘ condemning the moderate use of wine or bur ll _l crime, but who pruchc: or mums common honesty u a mourn-y ‘vir- tue, or in like manner donouncbl the vice and crime which mung from dlshoues‘ and, palpable pri- tence?

I have spoken before about dia- thermy, the method o! getting heat into the ‘inner part of the body with- out burning the skin.

It has been used by Dr. Orile of Cleveland in maintaining but in the abdomen during an operation.

Dr. l". B. Granger. Boston tells us um. it is of value in pneumonia. a it lessens pain, improves umporlriiy the heart's action, and induces sleep.

By relieving the pain and increas- ing the amount of rest, the patient is in better shape to meet thé crisis.

And now Dr. Dan McKenzie, Glas- gow, Scotland, says that in favorable cases of chronic middle ear deafness, diathermy improves the hearing and diminishes the noises-humming, ringing, whirring, and other noises- that accompan some forms of deaf- ness.

The middle ear. as you know, is where the Circe little bones are loc- ated that carry sound from the drum of the our to the brain.

He describes the method ll follows: The electrodes used are of_ metal, of the same sizeftha superficial meas- urements bein! 1 inch by 1% inches. One is placed over the mastoid pro- cess (the bony lump behind the ear), and the other is laid 0W0 the face Just below the prominence of the cheek bone. A pad of lint cooked in 10 per cent salt solution is placed be- tween the electrode and th skin.

The current used varies from 0.7 to 1.4 umperes; it is [raduglly urged from uro to the point when the pug. lent begins to feel the skin becoming too hot. and then reduced to the point where the patient can bear it com- fortably, and kept there from 7 to l0 minutes. ,

The patient should remain lying down for a short . time After the treatment. The treatments lhould be repeated every other day and 1m- provment, if it is going to occur ‘at all, should be noted ct end of the second or third week. There may or mly not be a reactionary dulling of tho hwrlnz for the um 1a or an hours.

In the presence of pus, or in cages

where the little bones in um ear have grown together, dlathenriylhould not be used. I have quoted freely because you miy be a sufferer from Ceataess, and yo"! H? Specialist will be able to tell you whether or ‘not diathermy may be 1191M’!!! in your particuln- typg o: deafness.
