What do these figures show?

Dr. Bruetsch said that a careful study of all the mental pati- ents dying at the hospital showed 8 per cent. to have suffered not only from rheumatism of the heart but of thcdfrain as well. All of the de- mentia praecox patients with rheumatism of the

heart also were found to have rheumatism of 1

thc brain, he said. This (lid not mean that every person with rheumatism would have heart dis- ease or tneiital disorders, he added, but it did indicate that this one common form of in- sanity was frequently the result of rheumatic

He says: “A lmlzinced budget alone is not enough to prevent recessions. \\'c had a balanced budget when the last (lepressioii came. \Ve have to keep our bal- ance iii other things as well as iii the budget. \\'c have to keep a balance between prices and 1iiirchzisiug power, a balance between production and spending, a balance between living costs and wages. a balance between what big business de- inanils and what small business can stand. Monopoly and big busiiess has thrown us off balance in these things, and this is the cause of our (liscotitent and unsettled confidence. The effort of big business spokesmen to screeutheir operations by ziccusiiig the Administration does not appeal to the sportsmanship of the intel- ligence of these who watched prices the early part of this year." 41 =01

lately Intinched in (Jermniiy for the '

white man's country, and South-

Pelting demonstrations were also, fl. feature of this work, which as-i slated many of the ranchers to shape their fox pets in a more util- forni iiiriimei', and ivhich adds to j the value of the pelts from the buyer's viewpoint.

Mr G. Ennis Smith, Superlntencl- , ent. of the Domtntcci Fox Experi- mental Station, greatly assisted at 1 tbs work. He and Dr. Gunn at- tended each of the field days held, and gave valuable information re- garding the feeding and breeding of Silver Foxes. '

A Fox Show was held at Monta- gue where the foxes were ludlled l" groutis. This wns the first show of its kind held in Canada. The meth- = otl of judging was adopted by ll"? ,' Show committee and our field mim- and was considered very satisfactory and educative by the exhlbtori 8nd fox-breeders present. At the conclu- sion of our seasons field work. tin educational demonstration was held at Summerside, November 29th to December 3rd, where over sbi hun- dred foxes were entered b)’ "inch" ers from different sections of the Province. Those foxes were tn- rlivlditally examined and described as to quality; the description of each animal was forwarded to the owner, upon return of the an ma]. This demonstration was Sp0n50r€d by the Department. of Agriculture, 1 the Sunuiierside Board of Trade 1 and the Summerside Fox Study 1C1ub. Our field man, Mr. Burke. I and Mt'. Ivluyers of Lampson, Fraser & I-Iuth of New York were the judges at this educational demon- stratlon.

l And now. at the end of the old year. we are all prone t0 100K 1186K and review any endeavours that we have made. and if we are thought- ful, we are anxious to discover any deficiencies in order that they may be remedied in the future. I must say that this Government and tns Department have every reason to be thankful for and appreciative of the efforts of our field man. Mr- W. F. Burke. When we took up this l work 1t was new, and we were blfll- ing a new trail. We knew what we wished to accomplish, but we had very little idea as to the best meth- od- whcreby we could accomplish 1t. We first decided that we would make a survey of the fox ‘ranches of the province as completey as 1t was possible to do so. As we have some three thousand five hundred ranches, it was impossible for one field mun to make a Survey 0! every rant-h. so we decided to group the ranchers. together in Fox Study Clubs. and we have succeeded tn establishing the number of Clubs already stated in this article. We received substantial assistance from the Fur Pools of the Province; all of them sent their fur experts t0 ' explain to the ranchers the positive 1 necessity’ of raising the “HWY 1°)‘ ‘ or the fox that; ls looked for in the ‘ fur trade.

Behind The Headfines At (lttawa

By Dean Wilson

The subject of Canada's for- elgn relations was discussed in the last two articles, emphasizing ‘the reactions of the Government it‘. Ottawa l0'1\'l'll'(ih‘ the present inter- national crisis which has arisen as a result of the joint military tract entered fiito by the three die- tatorshlps, iiuiricly- Germany. Italy and Japan. whose outspoken envy of the British Empire's pow- er and possessions is no secret ln thedlplomatlc circles of the world.

One question remains to be answered lu this lust article of this series.

What will Canada do lf the Bri- tish Government should persist. in opposing the Italian ambitions for the creation of a modern Ro- man Empire?

In other words, will Ottawa back up to the letter the actions of the British Government in the event that these policies towards Italy should bring about an acute or decisive point?

This Dominion ts an independ- ent menvber of the British dlllfllly of nations. but it is certain that whenever the Home Government makes any important decision on any international issue, this is the result. of a Joint, collaboration of all entities of the British Coin- monwealth of Nations of which Canada ls an important member. Therefore. whatever action is tak- en by any Dominion or by the Home Government, it ls really pos- sible to friterprete ns a joint re- solution of this political imrtner- ship, and this conclusion infers that Canada will likely follow the final decisions as announced by the British Foreign Office. though ft. must not be forgotten that Ot- fawn is tn daily consultation with this very important division of the Home Government.

In order to appreciate the back- ground for the Italian and Brit- ish dlspute, 1t; ls essential to un- derstand thal; the Italian people have no dislike for the British Empire. On the contrary, any- one travelling throughout the continent may discover evidence which indicates that the Italians

or anything that is British. But: the whole trouble started about seven or eight years ago, when the dictator, Beiilot. Mussolini, decid- cd that in future might would be right, and he proceeded to make preparations to invade Ethiopia, which was opposed by Great. Bri- tafn on the ground that Italy, be- ing an active member of the Lea- gue of Nations, should allow this matter to be settled by a refer- ence to the League Council and not. by warfare. One dispute led to another, and today the relation- ship between Italy and the Bi'l- ttsh Government 1s quite strained.

Mussollnfs right. hand man ls his son-lri-laiv, Count Ciano, who acts as the Foreign Minister, and his recent statement that “Italy's distrust of Britain has ended be- cause of the firm adhesion of this nation to the Mediterranean Agreement. of Jnii1iriry,1937," lm- plles that the Italian ambitions are really not as great; as they would appear to be from a casual observation of the claims made 1n some quarters. 11nd the actual situation ls not its serious as it seems to be now, particularly lf 1t 1s remembered that Mussolini ls regarded as a much better orator than statesman by the official estimation of the diplomats.

The Italian-British dispute cen- tres over the disputed rights in the Mediterranean, which a fam- ous British statesman has term- ed "the arterial road of the Bri- tish Empire", and 1t dates back m the days when the Great War ended and many Italian flajms were not satisfied by the Allies who won the tvar, Will} the strong chance that the present crisis is nothing but MI effort to get 5111,15.

TEMPER TANTRUMS

I never realized how true are the viiords, ‘One often has to be cruel to be klnd," until, as a, young physician, I was asked how to treat a case of temper tantrums. Thé boy was about three years old and when told to do something he did not wish to do, or when he was prevented from doing something he did wish to do, lie would scream, kick everybody, gl-flllllp his feet, and actually lle on the floor and bump his head until the distracted mother would fIniiIYy give ln be- cause he grew so red in the face, than blue, and she though he would chef-u,- to death. My advice was that she should let. him "carry on” tlll he ex- hausted hlmself and that when ha found that his tantrums didn't get him anywhere, he would stop use- fng this method of getting his cwn way. The mother thought that this would be too cruel, that he might. do himself some perman- ent Injury. But I explained that 1f she let him have his own way by using these tantrums he would depend upon these outbursts or similar methods of dodging his re- sponsibilltles when he grew older. In other words he would likely be- i._s._ _E___ __€_,

faction for those claims.

Al; one time or another in tha history of Europe, some nation tried to become the monopolist. of the Mediterranean» Spain tried to accomplish this object between 1540-1550, but. the British and Dutch fleet finished this effort. About 1700 Louis XIV of France combined his flrees with those of Spain to gain this control, but England, Holland and Portugal de- feated them, with the additional result that Britain gained the strategically important station of Gibraltar and four years later ob- tained possession of Mlnoiicit. Na- poleon trled the same effortless plan as Louis XIV, but. Russia with the support of most of the

other powers on the continent turned against him and ensured his downfall. Now, Bentot Musso-

lliil ls making n similar attempt to control the Mediterranean, but. this ls one point. that wlll find Britain ready to go to war rather than submit to the wishes of the Italian dictator.

But. 1t. ts wise to bear ii'i mind that this dispute is not between the Italian and British people. In fact. the intelligent. population of Italy has not forgotten that it was Great Britain who helped the . great ltberator, Garibaldi, to land Marsala in 1860, 11nd to assist this leader to free Sicily and the South of Italy, which action brought freedom and

ly relations that culminated ln the Anglo-Italian Treaty on the Mediterranean tn 1887. They real- ize that Great Britain recognized the Italian conquest of Eritrea in 1891. The great masses of the Ita- lian nation have not forgotten that Italy joined the Entente Powers towards the beginning of the Great War and their country remained neutral only for a few

the Allies against Germany, which country is now their new friend and Italians are fnstlnctly suspici- ous o! a new alliances.

There ls no fundamental

and the British Empire. and therefore. anyone who knows the ground work of international lits- iory will not hesitate tn state that the strained relations between these two powers are not, beyond repair or compromise. It has hap- pened before and it will take place again. This means that, the Government at Ottawa wlll not do anything radical or headstrong tn the present international crlsls since lt is not likely that the Home Government wlll do other- wise tn future plans which aim to appease the Italian dictator rath- er than carry on n lengthy dls- puts.

The importance of handling these cases of temper tantrum properly ts suggested by the Qn. tarlo Department of Health in their Mental Health Clinic.

“The manner 1n which the par- ent treats such anger qusodes in the very beginning decides whether they will become more frequent and more violent. Such outburst; are a. very childish and unsettl- fiwtvrv way of meeting dlfflcultles, but the child must learn that they

. are unsatisfactory. I! they pornin
