As restrictions upon the circula- tion of gold coins became more and more rigid, the notes still represent- ed gold and in theory, at least, the holder of the notes was the holder or owner of an equivalent value in gold. Now, with the nationalizing of gold. even the theory has been abandoned. Governments, entrusted with the safekeeping oi gold, have appropriated it by law in the name of emergency and public wel- fare. Not the rioteholders but the governments became the owners of the gold, the governments doing nothing more to cam this right than to store the gold and print the paper money-Jinancial News.

The sum of the matter is that under present conditions the French Canadian stock oi the Dominion is rapidly overhauling the British in point of numbers, and, in the ab- sencs oi a revival of immigration, is bound to exceed it within a ceri- tury. It may still st the end oi that period remain a minority oi the total population, but it will be the increase oi the European Con- tinental stocks in the West which will have kept it in that position. It is not within the province oi this article to attempt any ap- praisement of the political, social and other consequences of such a developme as is iorecasted in ic- gard to Canada's population, but obviously they cannot fail to be oi far-reaching importance both for Canada and the British Common- wealth-Tha Nineteenth Century.

But when the allotted three score years and ten have pased there is an opposite tendency. It is not merely to qual- ify for old age pensions that claims of extreme old age are made. Men aspire to reach the century mark. The Registrar-General of Scotland reports that out of thirteen alleg- ed centeriarians only flve succeeded in proving their oases. In England old Parr is said to have lived 152 years, 01d Jenkins t0 1'10, and in Elizabeth's time it was said that Thomas Cara lived to the ripe old age of 207.

Q I—n W. MEAT OB VEGETABLES

h".

It is interesting and sometimes amusing w hear the arguments of the meat eaters and the vegetarians and the raw food enthusiasts as they argue about the proper foods for man to eat.

It is generally admitted among trained food experts that a raw food diet doesn't quite fulfill the heat or caloric requirements oi the body, not so much because the food isn't nutritious but because oi its bulk or size enough is not usually eaten.

This means that not enough pm- tcid (body builder and repairer) is taken into the body daily.

However all trained food experts agree that most oi us should sat more fruit, vegetables and salads than at present.

Dr. Walter Alvarez, Mayo Clinic, who has done a great amount oi work upon the intestine says, "Man scans to have been designed to sst all kinds oi ioods as is shown riot only by the pattern oi his teeth but by the nature and size oi his diges- tive tract. In the herb oi vegetable eating animals the bowel is from 25 to 100 times the length of the body, while in the cat and dog, meat 0st- ers, it is from 4 to B times that length.

A giraffe who lives on rought tree tops has an intestine 100 timm its body length. A cow has on intestine 100 times its body length. A cow has an intestine 27 times its b0iiy lefl8th. What lesson can we get from com- paring the digestive tract oi man with that oi a meat eating animal like the dog or cat, and also with that of herb eating animals like a giraffe or a cow?

The lesson would seem to be that man was meant to eat meat, eggs, fish and other animal foods and likewise the foods eaten by herb eat- ing animais-fruits and vegetables. That is as man's digestive tract is longer than the meat eating animals and shorter than the herb eating animals, his present diet oi meat, cereals, vegetables, fruits, and fats is really best suited to his require- merits.

However it would be well for us to remember the advice oi Prof. Mc- Collum, Johns Hopkins University, that we all try to eat some raw fruit or raw vegetable every day.

Farmers And Golf

For individuals less gifted, how- ever, instruction may be helpful and indeed necessary. In varying pro- portions and with varying degrees oi success instructors mix theory and practice, abstract exposition and concrete illustration, do and dbifl; reprooi and encouragement, sarcasm and compliment, stern au- thority and sweet reasonableness. The most successful oi them con- trive by one mearis and another to imiprlnt upon the tablets of the learner's mind a series oi moving pictures of an accomplished golfer in action with the several clubs.
