WELCOME T0 ‘rue: nocfrons

N behalf of the citizens of Char- lottetown and the people of the Province, The Guardian extends a. hearty welcome to the membe'rs of the Canadian Medical Association, their confreres from other countries and the friends who accompany them. It is somewhat early in the season to see our Province at its best or to enjoy the summer clim- ate of which we boast, but of what we have in climate. in scenery, in hospitality we invite them to par- take. We have no control over the weather which at this time of year is mainly concerned with caring for the growing crops, but such as we iiiall have during their short visit with us we share ungrudgingly with them on a fifty-fifty basis.

The Canadian Medical Associatiom IS one of the largest and most ini- iortnnt organizations in Canada. Every province and cverycity and own and rural community is repre- acntrd in its membership. Their friends. individually and collectively, legion. iagc and palace is open to them. Ihcy minister to poor and rich; their mission, as well as theilipro- fcssion is to minister to the sick and the suffering, and few professions ‘there are which so faithfully and zften altruistically carry out their mission or fulfill their obligations.

There are many reasons why we 3h0llld hold out welcoming hands to our distinguished visitors. They com- prise some of the world's most dis- tinguished physicians and surgeons. Many of them are Canadians. not a few of them distinguished sons of our own province. We owe the pro- fession much. and it is a privilege to make at least a partial payment on this occasion by hospitality and :1 kindly welcome.

We wish our distinguished visit- ors n very pleasant sojourn among us while here and trust their short stay with us will be an inducement

-_--<00-~--— KEEP THE CITY CLEAN.

VIDENTLY there are still a few men and women among us who have forgotten-or perhaps never knew-that old wrapping paper and fioor swcepings are not n suitable street decoration, especially at this season of the year, also that there are other uses for peanut shells and chewing gum wrappers than for lit- tcring our squares and parks. Yet one or two of these, armed with a broom or a bag of peanuts and such other luxuries as they may require in their business, can in a few hours makc the city look as if it had been in the hands of sav- ages over night. Many complaints have recently been voiced with regard to this thoughtiessness on the part cvcn of store-keepers as well as of the pen- nut-devouring occupants of seats in our parks. The attention of the police has frequently been directed to this nuisance which is an eye- sore to decent citizens. The police have done what they could to pre- vent old wrapping paper being swept out onthe streets; but even this easily preventable nuisance is still too comma . The wind car- ries the litter along the streets gen- erally depositing it at the doors of our principal stores and residences to the disgust of all -' citizens. The pilgrims of the night who de- corate the park and public garden‘ seats with their persons and the surroundings ‘with peanut shells. fruit skins, etc, ‘have no regard for

more drastic treatment. It is illegal to throw debris on the streets, and they should be taught to regard the law.

There are chlldrwon who. knowing no better. frequently amuse themselves by uprooting "m... and over-running flower beds. We need a gal-feral crusade against vandalism

and street debris. Such n mfdt.

cleanliness ‘and. evidently require"

if carriedwn in our schools. would do much to offset this nuisance. The pupils could be enlisted in a "keep the city clean" movemen‘, and we feel sure they would enter into such a crusade with enthusiasm. The idea. of making the city a source of pride would appeal tothem, and their example would have a bene- ficial eflect upon the unfortunate children who know no better. We respectfully urge that the teachers impress upon their pupils respect for the property of others, the de- sirability of keeping the city clean and free from unsightly littering. The, men and women also. who are too often negligent in‘ this respect might be admonished by the police 1nd a general enthusiasm for clean- liness could thus be engendered. all to the good oi the city and its people.

LAWS AND LAWLESSNESS.

N Associated Press cespatch tells

that the 70th Congress of the United States has completed its first session by placing 1,000 new nws on the statute books. One thou- zand new ways to get into trouble! Who above earth or under sky can know all about the new sins that are being made these days? During ihc last session of its legislature. California added 896 new laws to its codes. Florida added 1.757 laws to its little lot during the same peri- od, North Carolina 1,249, and Ten- nesee 923. New York in the same period passed 731 bills, Illinois 446; Ontario passed nearly 100. This continent has now probably more laws, boards, commissions. depart- mental bureaus and so forth for con- trolling domestic, professional. edu- cational and industrial affairs than all the rest of the World put to- gather.

From crime to architecture, not

omitting beauty parlors and prize fighting. there is scarcely any act- ivity conncctcd with modern life in the United States (and Canada has the same tendency) for which there is not a board or a commission to admonish the citizen and be a guide and a lantern to his feet. A cer- tain class of people, fanatical to watch over the rest of us, seek inti- mately to control, by means of law's, commissions and other organizations, all matters concerning even the clo- mcstic relations of the citizen, from the pro-natal period to that of cm- balmiug. Much of it is nonsense. People can no more have morals legislated into their hearts and LuIISCIGIIOES than they can have brains legislat- ed into their heads; and the proof is that lnWIOSSIIGSS in the United States more than keeps pace with laws. A little more of good example and common sense. and a lot less laws, would make for betterment.

Notes by‘ the Way

EAT hogs abound throughout

Canada and the hope has long been cherished that peat might yet contribute largely toward solving the fuel problem in this country. Only a few years ago an expert was sent from Ottawa to examine the deposits in this Province and found them quite as promising as those in Ontario. Beyond question there is_good peat in the Island bogs and in a small way it has been prepared and proved to be quite equal to good coal for heating purposes. In the meantime. ex- periments have been made from year to year in Ontario, to solve the question whether peat fuel pro- duction could be made a successful industry. 8o far this has only re- sulted in disappointment and fall- ure.

The most conspicuous failure, says The Mail and Empire. has been the peat bog at Alfred, near Ottawa, on which successive Dom- lnion Governments have spent up- wards of $1,000,000. extending over a great number of years. Session after session parliament is told that experiments there are on the very eve of success and that this will probably be the last call for more money. Last‘ session. Mr. Stewart, Minister of Mines. was quite emphatic that important re- sults wcre to be attained within the coming twelve months. This ses- sion there was another item of $50,- 000 in the estimates and the Min- ister admitted thcre had been no production. The explanation was that the company which took over the plant was not able to finance the undertaking and could not make a. satisfactory agreement with the owner of the bog.

In consequence of this, the Gov- crnmcnt bought an adjoining piece of bog for $5.150 and spent last year $64,158 in hopes to produce 15.000 tons of fuel this year at $3.- 50 a ton. Mr. Stewart admitted that the government had come to the conclusion that only air-drying by spreading a thin coating over the ground shows any possibility of success. But the Government in- tends yet to demonstrate “that peat

can be sold for." But if the sum- mer is wet large production will be impossible.

Still, further experiments seem to be desirable, and may yet succeed. In our northern latitude fuel is one of the great necessities of life. More than half the people of Can- ada live in provinces that have no coal within their borders. and where wood fuel is scarce and cost- ly. All of those provinces have ex- tensive peat bogs easily accessible, containing potential fuel at the

ing and making it transportable will yet be devised.

Interest in the Waterways pro- ject between Montreal and the lakes is very general in Ontario and Que- bec, although leading public men in the two populous provinces are by no means in accord in their views on the subject. If the work is carried through the Maritimes will be com- polled to share in the enormous cost, of which Ontario will be the chief beneficiary both in navigation and the vast resultant water-power that will be made available. Just now Mr O. E. Fleming, K.C.. of Windsor. Ont., who is President of the Waterways and Power Association in Ontario, has been in SaIntJohn in pursu- ance of a vigorous "campaign of education," he has been carrying on to promote that project. He made known his belief that the Maritimes "have much to gain" from it. which is doubtful. He also believes that "Saint John would derive still great- cr benefit if the proposed Chignecto

WHY FRUIT AND VEGETABLES

ARE VALUABLE

A food specialist criticizing the food intake of the people of North America tells us that it. is the lack oi tnc bulky foods that is causing much of the stomach and intestinal trouble that is so prevalent.

In our anxiety to get everything "pure and refined" and to have it very digestible, we do not eat enough food that is “indlgestible.”

In other words it la the indigest-

ible portion of the food that Nature intended we should use in order to give bulk to the waste matter in the intestine, and to stimulate the large intestine into action. helps move the waste down the in- tcstlne to be removed from the body.

This action

Most of us eat cereals but he tells

us that they are put up in almost a predigested form with most of the husks or coverings removed. hence they are very easily digested and leave no waste.

Then meat and fish and eggs are

likewise almost completely digested and. absorbed.

Milk, cheese, and butter are also

almost completely absorbed.

Sugars leave no waste. Fats and oils likewise leave no

waste.

You ‘can readily see that if you

were to confine yourself- to above diet there would be very little waste to form any bulk to fill intestine and stimulate it to action.

What is missing from this diet? Fruits and vegetabdes. These

foods have a large amount of what is called cellulose tissue, a sort of tough indigestible substance that forms the walls of the cells of the fruit and vegetables. l

You can get a. rough idea of what

this tissue is like by thinking of the paper cartons in which _eggs are shipped. ' Each egg has a separate compartment made of cardboard.

Similarly each cell of fruit and

It is these husks, shells, or cover-

lngs that make up the bulk in the waste matter of intestine, giving the large intestine something to work on, to take hold of, and thus carry

these husks and other waste matter with them down the intestine to be removed from the body.

In other words while refined foods are easily digested and are usually excellent foods, nevertheless fruit-

and vegetables should always be‘

eaten to make up this bulk. This is the reason that fruit and vegetables prevent constipation.
