The educational value of tliese school fairs has been. delnonst a‘ ’ year after year. They have given a wholesome impetus toi-‘higrlculture and stock-raising, and the competi- tion among the young has un- doubtedly made good farmers of young men who otherwise would have become weekly or daily wage earners in less remunerlitive cm- ployment in cities and elsewhere. It is hoped that the parents of all school children will encourage them in this friendly rivalry for prizes, and that the\fairs this year will re- ceive the encouragement usually accorded to them. Not only the school children, but the grown-ups in each fair district should take an of B of by their presence at the fairs. i i- V‘ o; VALUE or woltnsf- f- " ey . ____ . F lnestlmable aid to his political judgment. the Rt, Hon. Stanley Baldwin reckons the possession of a sense of proportion, of a standard of values, and of respect for the truth of words. Addressing tthe Classical Association in 1926, he said: "So far as I have had ‘a sense of proportion it has helped me to indlv“ ls, distinguished and ‘un- distlnguished, who form the House of Commohs. S0 far as I have ac- quired “a standard of values, it has helped me to estimate speech and the written word. and has saved me many a time from bowing to the idols of the market-place. So far as I have had respect for the truth of words, I have been helped to de- tect the fallacy and the equivocal phrase lurking in the tropical growth of oratory, and 1 have en- deavored to use a speech plain and unambiguous." Where would Premier Saunders and his political prohlbiticnlsts be today had they used a speech “plain he of BS in in the seats of Government. We all know what their promises were in the election campaign, what innu- endoes were broadcast about the mo- tlves of their opponents, what hypo- crlsy was practised upon the tem- perance people who supported them, what rhetorical flourishes were made in the name of morality and Christianity. We know, too, how the emotional appeal was worked up by imported spellbinders, how cham- pions were secured to fulminate even in the pulpit, and how clergy- men of other calibre who refused to be hoodwinked by propaganda piously disguised were censored in the Liberal press for remaining sil- ent during the campaign. Who to- day would suggest that a minister cf the Gospel should preach in de- fence of the Saunders Government, or of the methods adopted by the Saunders Government to obtain the reins of power? Herein seems ‘to lie the essential difference between statesmen of the Baldwin type and politicians of the Saunders type. The statesman is guided by fixed principles; the poli- tician simply follov/il "the line of least resistance.‘ Fidelity to fixed principles breeds confidence and re- spect, even in she's’ enemies. Fol- lowing the line of leslst resistance‘ breeds nothing but distrust. even in one's friends and supporters. Why should anyone be surprised that the Saunders Government has failed that it has shown itself to be in- cflmlletent, irresponsible and extra- Vlflflnt‘!

Itwas a great enterprise, nobly conceived. and most excellently carried out. The three provinces may well co-operate in returning the compliment. byvex- tending an invitation to the leading business and public men theymet to conle and see us "at home."

How long will it be before people come to see that it is better to have the wolf publicly caged and restricted, so that all may ‘behold him, than to have him roam at llirgls” in sheep's clothing, ruthlessly "destroying our young and weak ones in the highways and hedges? The Mayor of Philadelphia is not the only public-spirited citizen of the United States who bewails the fail- ure of prohlbitlorl to prohibit. Mr. W. C. Durant, the motor magnate, has offered $25,000 for "the best and most practicable plan to make /the Eighteenth Amendment effective," and his reason for so doing, he ex- plains in this terse and condemna- tory sentence:—_ . "Big business leaders who have the largest stake in law observance publicly’ and privately violate this law and countenance its vio- lation by others.” it is curious that a. man of Mr. Durant‘s known ‘uslness ability should ciielvmcney for such a solu- tion, when he must realize that the one and only way to have observ- ance of any law is to have public opinion behind it. Bo long as a law is on the statute book unsupported by public opinion it is a dead letter, no matter how often, for political purposes, a party may seek to en- dorse it. It is the old practice con- demned by the Christ nearly 2000 years ago. ' Great expectations had been rais- uml unambiguous." when they were sldency, would handle the prohibi- canvassing for votes?

For his boldness and deflniteness on this issue, the Governor is praised by many, even of those who neither agree with him nor support him. And the very con- siderable element in his own party which dismisses the Governor's personal dry platform as a futile gesture, to a large extent. make up for it by finding candour. cour- age and progressiveness charac- teristic of the message as a whole.

Barlow-MP i yous srrsrrra \ i i One of the little points you are apt to forget is that a great deal to do w th the diges- tion of y_our food. . to enable your digestive apparatus to do its work properly. ‘And so you_ can tlilnk of your brain as your appetite, or your ap- pEiSiUQflBItIIB brain part of digestion. If you have “no appetite,” to use the common expression, then you are actually losing out on the first. or brain part, of digestion. -"I'hc ‘brain part. ‘as mentioned previously; is the sight and the smell ofi-food. the ‘clsanness of the linen, the - attractiveness of the dishes and surroundings. All these things help to stimulate not only the saliva in the mouth, but‘ thegastrlc- juice in the stom- ach, and an abundant supply of this gastric Juice is waiting in the stomach before the food reaches it. Then as you know, the food itself stimulates ‘more luice to flow, and the digestion of food in stomach goes on to‘completlon. What happens if you eat food and have no appetite for it? Should you eat at all if you have no appetite? Well, you must eat to live. but certainly you are not really living, not fully living, if without appetite, because you do not get the full strength, the full caloric and vita- min strength from y_our food, if you have no appetite. , Having no appetite is like running a race from a. standing start, where- as with a good appetite you are running at full speed when you leave the starting mark. Now how can you develop an ap- petite? The first requirement fs that you spread the meal hours 5% to 6 hours apart; your stomach should be empty of food in that time. Second, lie on right side for ten minutes before each meal, and thus syphon anything out of stomach into intestine. Rest a few minutes before every meal even if you don't lie down. And try and have everything as clean and wholesome looking as possible. Remember. without an appetite your stomach is not able to dovlts Job completely. ‘Oi-O? *9 FVHOQ44+§FQ§O Ofififfi- s I HOUSEHOLD -- ~ SCRAP BOOK’ B!
