EXERCISE Although I am a great believer in the benefits that can be obtained from massage, I cannot help but re- gret that. m many people think vi massage as n form of exercise, and that it will do them as much 800d B! exercise propel‘- Now what happens when Yo“ m‘ ually exerclss by work or ploy? Th‘? muscles work, sugar 1s burned up in the muscles, carbon dioxide is manu- factured which must be removed from the blood, and more oxyzen 15 needed to replace oxygen used uP b!’ the exercllfl. This means more work for heart. lungs, and blood vessels. The 111004 becomes more acid or less alkaline. What happens when Y0" a" m3!‘ saged? ‘rhero is practically no increase in the work done by heart or iunllfl. and only a slight increase in circula- tion. as there is no increase of acid in the blood. Therefore from the standpoint of muscular strength, massage ls of lit- tle or no use. - What then is the purpose or bene- fit of massage. It has been definitely proven that massage dilutes or opens up llthle blood vessels in the part massaged: increases the amount of oxygen in the red blood cells, and in- creases also the number of these cells, for an hour following its use. Also by opening up the little ves- sels in the part massaged, any waste or broken down products are thus more readily removed. ‘ You can understand that if mas- sage were really exercise. it would hardly be good sense to vigorously massage an athlete after severe ex- ertion, as you would thus only be in- creasing the poisonous waste-lactic acid-which causes tiredness or fatigue.- It is the actual removal of this lac- tic acld by massage that is of such great benefit. So think of mmsage as of great , help to manknd but don‘! let It take the place of active exercise. nvro nArrLu ‘The naked earth is warm with Spring And with green grass and bursting trees _ Loans to the sun's gaze glorying, And quivers in the sunny breeze; And Life is Colour and Warmth and Light, And a striving evermore for these; And he is dead who will not fight; And who dies fighting has increase.

To Canadian Manufacturers, In Every Line of Business. Remember the Golden Rule .' i 1 -‘Ir“fl. I \ For some weeks now I have been urging consumers in every ‘at! o! Canada to buy your products in preference to imported products» I hnvn tried to make it quite clear to them that, in their own interest, it’; tho common sense thing to do. . ‘ Now if it is sound common sense that your fellow Canadians lhould support yo u, in yos: efiorts t- ncrease and to improve your production, isn't it also sound common sense that you, in the purchase o! your materials, should support other Canadian producers who an 1min] f0 increase and to improve their production? . I t’: a poor rule that won't work both ways! When other: wrench hom- ael s out of life-long habits to do something that will help you/don"t you agree that it's up to you to reciprocate in whatever way you can? So let me ask you very frankly-are you co-opera tin} in thiscampnijn n! fully as you might co-operate? When you buy materials and supplies, do you always make'a conscientious efiort to find some Canadian pro- ducer who can give you what will fill the bill? Conceding for the anko a! argument that there are certain things you must import, because they cannot be produced in Canada, are your reasons for importing other things that do not fall within that category such that you would have no hesitation in making them public? No fair-minded person is ever going to reproach you for buying imported materials and supplies when you can advance perfectly valid reasons for doing so. For example, if, after making diligent search, you were unable to find a single Canadian producer who could make delivery in the quality, and in the quantity, and within the time necessary to meet your requirements, and at a price you could afiord to pay, that Would ba sufficient reason for your giving your order to a foreign producer. Andyet if hardly seems like playing the game, does it? It’: equivalent [to saying to the small Canadian producer—"To qualify for my business, you've got _to show me that you can meet your big foreign competitor on every poin t———quality, quantity, time and price-otherwise you don't get it!" If every Canadian consumer had always taken thatstand, and stuck to it, many a man who is a successful Canadian manufacturer to-day would have lost his entire stake without ever having made a sale! But despite the competition he was up against, and the handicaps under which he had to labour, he made sales because there were enough Canadian con- aumers willing to see to it that he got his start. So Iask you, aren’t there times when you could well afiord to show some Canadian producer just that little extra consideration that would be the means of starting him on his way to bigger and better business? If Ire cannot give you the quantity you want, within the time you want it, the reason probably is that you and other Canadian manufacturers hive never given him enough business to warrant him enlarging the modest littloplant he began with. If he cannot deliver you out pf stock the exact quality you want, might he not soon be able to do so with the patronnje that you and others might give him, by cnablingJ-lim to keep pace with his big foreign competitor in bidding for skilled labour, in trying out new Z processes, and equipping h" use]! with new devices as they are brought. out? And if his price is a_ L. rle high, just ask yourself if thepreservation of your business makes it absolutely necessary for you to buy in the cheapest market! As I write this I have before me two competitive articles, both produced in Canada. They sell to the same class of people, at the some price, and are apparently on a parity so far as quality is concerned. Both an mods from the same kind of material, but whereas the material in one is 100 per cent Canadian, the material in the other is I00 per cent imported. The producer of the article made from Canadian n1aterial admits t nt he could makea little more profit for himself by using imported material, but he won't do it—ha says he doesn't need to! The producer of the article made from imported material, while contending that the exi- gencies of his business make it necessary for him to buy in the cheapest market, only uses that as an excuse to swell his profits! Ifyou want the "Produced in Canada" movement to be n real success- to bear abundant fruih-remember the Golden Rdle, and do unto other: as you wouldlxave others do unto youl Don't assume that a thing is not now procurable in Canada, just because it wasn't when you first started importing it! Why not take us into your confidence regarding all your importations, and see if we cannot help you to Iocatoauitnble Canadian sources of supply? Very sincerely yours, ./%/Q;¢ Minister of Trade and Commerce. being at the four comers.
