we-maiitsfR2az;;... non rwo THE ouaanian aueulrilo. mi The social event of thstweek in London. Canada and elsewhere was the birth of a new princess and additional prospective heiress to the throne after her brother. Prince Charles. Princess Elizabeth astonished every one with her sang-frold in facing the ordeal. sp- pciring in public till lust the hour of delivery. Most people are pleased that the new member of the royal family is a girl. making a pigeon-pair. though not a few expected another boy would pro- vide a playmate for brother Char- ne I I I Within five weeks it is regarded as a certainty that the Princess and her husband will take the baby along with Prince Charles to Birkhall. near Balmoral Castle. The residence was placed at their disposal by the King. There has been considerable speculation about the likely names that will be given to the new Princess. Those nearest the family circle are guessing that ,Elizabetli will get first place. Other odds-on favor- ities are said to be Mary. Victoria and Anne. I I I But there is a possibility no an- nouncement of the baby's name will be made until the christeninz. Following tradition. the ceremony will likely take place within four to six weeks in the private chap !l at Buckingham Palace, with the Archbishop of Canterbury officiat- ing. The baby will then wear gm robe of ivory. satin and rare 1 e, which Queen Victoria had special- ly made for her first-born. The baby Princess will inherit Prince Charles outgrown toys. as well as much of his baby clo.thing.. . The birth entitles Elizabeth and Philip to claim an allowance of live shillings a week under Brit- ain's national insurance act. The allowance is made for the second child and all subsequent births in each family. Elizabeth is unlikely to claim it. She receives an al- lowance of 910,000 a ycar and the Duke 510,000 from the treasury. Philip, recently promoted to lieu- tenant-commander in the Royal Navy. also receives 51 12 shillings in base pay and a scrvice mar- riage allowance of 18s 6d a day The first present the little Prin- cess will receive will be a string of coral beads from her mother. Elizabeth wore the bead; herself as a baby. A gift of coral to A new-born baby is said to bring luck. I I I On the occasion of Pakistan Day. August 15. the High Com- missioner for Pakistan and Begum Mohammed All entertained at an evening recerption. The High Commissioner and Begum Moham- med All received their guests in the spacious drawing-room which was decorated with white. pink and yellow gladioll. The Begum Mohammed All were a costume consisting of a blue satin gharara, a. blue chiffon kurta embroidered in silver and.a blue chiffon dupat- ta. Among the guests were the Prlme Minister and other mem- bers of the cabinet. the diplomatic corps. prominent Ottawa citizens and Government officials. The re- ception ended with the orchestra playing the Pakistan national an- them. not yet very familiar in Ot- tawa. ' I I I The High Commissioner for the United Kingdom and Lady Clutter- huck are on a tour of the Marl- times and Newfoundland and will return to Ottawa about the mid- dle of September. They are ac- companled by Miss Anne Clutter- buck, Miss Jane Durrant and St, John Chadwick. first secretary at the office of the High Commis- lloner. I I I It was praiseworthy of the Pro- vincial Government to acquire the Woments Instltute's layette exhibit to present to Princess Eiizsbeth for her new baby. The Queen Mary Guild annually sends the Queen Mother a handsome box of exceedingly fine linen work for her children's hospital. and the Women's Institutes are adding to the work via Government inter- mediary.

V-N-Xs.VN.V.s&V.'A.o VITAMIN B- TIIIAMINE - IN TREATMENT OF MENTAL DEFECTIVES When it was found that follc acid enriched the iron in the blood equally as well as liver and liver extract. it was considered a great boon, as pernicious anemia pat- ients grow tired of eating liver even if it is served in fifty-seven different ways. They also grow tired of taking injections of liver extract. However, it was later found that while follc acid enriched the blood as well as liver and liver extract. it failed to help or correct the "nervous" symptoms that oc- cur ln pernicious anemia. As vitamin B -is considered the best single treatment for the "nerves." especially the thiamine of vitamin B. thiamine is novv add- ed to the follc acid treatnient ox pernicious anemia. And because it 3 used for "neives," Dr. G. de M. Rudolf tried using thiamine in the treatment of mental defectives. In The Journal of Mental science, London. Dr. Rmdolf tells of his investigations of use of thi- amine in treating the entire popu- lation (N7) of a mental detlciency colony. Those who had shown no improvement in behavior. either in their lodges. at school, or at work were given 3 mg. thiamine. once daily. for five or six months. The patlents had been in the colony for mental defectives for three to 17 years. Of the entire colony treat.- ed. five became more violent or destructive; in three of the iiv: the thiamln treatment; was discontin- used. Of the 90 patients who rec- eived the full course. 44 (about half) showed improvement in one or more of the following aspects: behavior in lodge work or school. social age in relation to their act- ual age, and intelligence quotent (i2I2.) Just how long the above im- provement by use of thiamine will oontinue and how much of it will be permanent is not. of c-xurse. known at present. However, the im- provement brought about by this part (thiamine) of vitamin 3 means psychiatrists and general physicians, some of whom think the public is putting too much faith in the value of vitamins, will pie- scribe more thiamine and vatch its effect not only in mental defec- tives but in many who are at 1:198- ent working hard "on their nc've'" in these strenuous days. Notwithstanding the importance of the other vitamins-A in skin ailments. C in smrvy. D In skin and "run down" conditions. E in generative ailments-vitamin B is still king of the vitamins.
