At thc time of his death he was ivorking on a new edi- lion of one of thc best known of lcgal classics. “Pollock on Torts", Sir Frederick is said to have been the only lawyer in history who became a judge before he was made a K.C. l-lc was ap- pointed a judge of thc mlmiralty Court of the (‘lnque Ports in i914 and created K.C. in 1920. ln i870 Sir Frederick, with Leslie Stephen, founded thc society known as “Stinday Tramps". Fivi- _vc1'u"s ago Sir Frederick presided at the 50th anniversary of the society whose members walked together in the country on Sundays. The Pollock family, perhaps the greatest of English legal dynasties, has stipplicd to the profession two Baronit-s of the Court of Exchequer, the .\l.'istcrship of the Rolls, judgships of the Ad- miralty Court, professorship of common law in the Inns of Court, and editor of the law reports.

, YOU CAN LOSE WEIGHT IF YOU

EAT LESS FOOD THAN YOUR BODY NEEDS

When you ask your doctor what

b” a p causes you to be overweight he "simply tells you that you eat; more

food than you use or need, and so

.t.his extra. food Is stored in the

body as fat.

When you call his attention to a mutual friend or acquaintance who is slim but eats mone than you do. doesn't. do any mom physical work, and gets as much rest. he repeats his statement that notwithstand- ing this fact, you still eat. more food than your particular body needs.

It is estimated that the average individual uses up about one-half of the food he eats to supply the body's needs-beating of the heart, breathing of the lungs, the digest- ion and absorption of food. separat- ing harmful iva- Les from the blood

and carrying these wastes to the _.

skin, lungs and lower bowel to be thrown out of the body.

This means then that the over- weight. individual taking in 3600 to 4000 calories of heat units of food. uses up 1800 to 2000 of these un- its in just. supplying various pro- cesses of the body with their needs.

This amount of food is tised by the ‘1 "whether the in- -

dividual is sleeping or waking working or resting", eating" or fast- ing, and there is no method of avoiding the expenditure or use c" tfhis amount of food by the burl}. Each day fiom birth to death, the heart pounds the chest wall 10:7.» 000 times, and the bellows of the lungs open and close 20,000 timex.

If, then, the overweight. indiv- idual were to cut his food exactly in half he would not put on a single pound of fat. If he took exercise-walking l mile dﬂlly——1‘0SlllIg’ 011c- hour less 1n the 24 hours, he would take off some weight. because it would re- quire some of thc fat tissue on his body to supply the energy for the exercise taken and for the loss of the hour's rest.

If. however the ovei-iveight tn- dividttal tvere unable or imwllling to take exercise or do without one of his resting hours, but. cut down his food by more than half (say from 1800 calories down to fifteen hundred every day, then 300 cal- ories or heat units would have to be supplied by the fat; on his body to make up the 1800 units bis body needed every day to do its work.

Your doctor is quite right then when he tells you that as far as your body Ls ODIICGYIIGKI; the fact; that you are overweight is because you eat more food than you body needs.

It. will bc said that. this is absurd —and of course, it. ls absurd. It will be said that no scmible man could possibly mean such an at.- tltudc as that-and that. is true. But. that. is ivhat Mr. Woodsworth says. More than that, what. Mr. Woodswortli says in this resolution 1s perfectly and logically the posi- tion of the pactfictat-any-price. And if Mr. Woodsworth docs not mean this, why should it be left to others to put the words in his mouth that perhaps he docsmcan?

This is the reversal of “My coun-_ try, right or wrong." This is "My country, with no belief ln anything, right or wrong. except. that. some- body else shall do any fighting that. has to be done." This is the logical gospel of no belief tn any- thing right, or wrong that. is worth fighting for stall.

Apparently nothing witches Mr. Woodsworth and his klnd. Hitler does not teach them, nor Mussolini, nor the rise of the cbsolutlst states. nor Abysstnin, nor Spain. They want to be in the Empire when It suits them, and out whenit. suits them. And if, as the logical end of betrayal of the Empire, they found themselves in the care of the United State-v. they would want to be there when it. suited them, and out when any fighting had to be done.

apparently nothing to them that they invite the aggression o1 the dictators on such terms. They want the League of Nations — so they say-but. they, more than any other party in the world, have been the betrayers of the League because they, more than any other party in the world, would not meet the 1s- sue that the Covenant, 1f need be. must be defended in arms.

But, more than all, neither 1s the integrity of a nation possible on such terms-and Canada. is not pos- sible on such terms. In the Empire or out, Canada could not be maln- mtned by a, people of whom ti; was known in the world that they cared nothing for any other nation's trou- bles, as long as they could stay out. For this is a doctrine only fit for slaves-and never tn history has a nation been maintained by slaves alone! O

Sport And The “Sports”

(Globe and Mall)

The furore over sport and the "chaotic" state of organization and administration tn Canada which oc- cupied thc House of Commons this week should stimulate much de- bate, more confusion, and, it. is to be hoped, a little improvement. The rackets and politics In sport alleged by Mr. Hugh PlaxtmmMli. whose Ministry of Sports resolu- tion sponsored the Parliamentary playdown, are not. new disclosures. They are the same conditions that have been exposed 1n local and Provincial circles since and before Mr. Plaxtonls amateur day-made more important, not to say offen- stvc, by the national political frame the young member gave them. .

That. a Federal Department of Sports is not the solution has been, for the present at; least. dccidcd on. But that. sport. ls in need of a gen- eral reconditioning, and a rein- troduction to the old sport-for- sport's-sake spirit goes without say- ing. There is no question that commercialization of our major seasonal games has had detri- mental effccts upon the spirit of competition, if not upon the quality of the play. But it cannot stand accused as the lone offender, and those promoting spoit and con- trolling the administrative bodies be saddled with the whole blame.

Aa Mr. T. L. Church, M.P., has said, more attention is gtven to professional sport. than w amateur and school games. It can be stat- eo‘ in reply that the standards es- tablished by professional sport. and the remuneration it. pays have 1n- splred more youths of school age to take to the rinks, bull parks and football fields than any other ele- ment. And these standards are maintained by public opinion and the adulation of the "stars" that. rise and fall from season to sea-

non.

In fact, public opinion, in accept- ing professional standuda as the level of competition. ls targely re- sponslble for the decli e of the old spirit. If the public nts first. a thrilling, well-played game, ft places almost equal emphasis on the home team winning. Crowds, even at the school. municipal or in- trnctty league amateur contests, are largely determined by these factors. In their desire to supply both. promoters go outside to find the "stat" material, and the some crowd that. demands the winning team is little ooncemed about it being m ed“ playeJ-g,

How w revive the withering spirit under these conditions is not any ""51! 10b. It is not. a job that. can be done at all without consider- able change in tho Inert-In! Pllblto.

“The Dictatorship”

(Vancouver Province) There 1s a. much of pathos in the cement contained b1 the first issue of the Saturday Review to be published after the death of Lady Houston, who owned 1t. and its policies. The an- nouncement runs: “The dictator- ship is over and we return to con- stituttonal government."

Lady Houston bought the Review and, we suppose, forced the ed- itorial stuff to tum out. the ln- crebible drivel with whl es were filled diurlng th "the dictatorship." No stop this amazing had a fanatical hatr Baldwin, Anthony Eden say MacDonald- her eccentric whl
