FRIDAY, JUNE 28, 1929 Bum SANCTUARIES It is encouraging to note that a definite move is being made towards establishing a bird sanctuary for the district of Charlottetown. ‘As noted elsewhere a. meeting was held two evellngs ago at which this mat- tor was fully discussed. and judging by the energy usually exercised in any matters of public interest by the gentlemen who attended this meeting, it is quite safe to assume that the project they have under- taken will be carried to a successful issue. Every other province in Canada has one or more bird sanctuaries and it is now definitely known that these sanctuaries have been a great fac- tor in increasing the number of mi- gratory birds. Wild geese. duck and brant, in their migration i0 and from their nesting-grounds in the north, pass over Canada, and vast numbers of them over Prince Edward Island. In the spring these birds, particul- arly geese and brant, wend their way northward w their breeding- grounds and alter their long jour- ney from the south. take advantage of every sheet of open-water in sight, for rest and feed. The Migratory Bird. Treaty between Great Britain and the United States very properly makes it unlawful to shoot the birds at this season. The idea of the bird sanctuary is to provide them with safe resting and feeding grounds, and it is a remarkable fact that the birds soon learn to know the retreats provided for them, in which they instinctively feel that they will not be molested by their arch-enemy, the man with the gun. At the meeting above referred to, several suitable localities were dis- cussed and it is hoped that a selec- tion will shortly be made and the necessary arrangements completed to make the sanctuary regulations effective. Public opinion in this province is strongly in favor of the establish- ment of one or more sanctuaries for the protection of wild bird life. It is possible that a few pot-hunters may object to a regulation which will de- prive them of the pleasure of shoot- ing a few mother-birds on their way to their nesting-grounds, but, as in all our sister provinces, the scriptur- al injunction “save the dam" will eventually prevail, and it is not foo much to expect that in the very near future, a. number of areas will be set aside in this province, in which our feathered fellow creatures may feel that they are secure. N. B» AGAIN ACTIVE The latest evidence of activity on the part of the New Brunswick Gov- ernment is the appointment of a. re- patriation c- mmissioner who will act under the New Brunswick Commis- sioner of Immigration and Industry in an attempt to bring back to the farm lunch of the Province former New Brunswickers now resident if; the New England Btafel. Repatriation, if it is to be success- lul, must mean more than merely sending a commissioner w invite former Canadians to return to Can- ada. lie must be in a position to mun them that something worth while awaits them in the Province to which they are called. The Baa- tar Government. which has shown a ‘practical in immigration States on his mission, indicates that the New Brunswick Government has a definite policy in view. Would that so much could be said of the Government of‘ our own Pro- vince, which has lost to the New England States a. greater proportion of 1m sons and daughters than any Province in Canada! The need ‘of a Colonization and Immigration Bur- eau has frequently been urged upon Premier Saunders and his colleagues. but not even a reply has been vouch- safed nor a reason given why such a bureau should not be established. It was only recently that The Guar- dian had occasion to report the ap- pointment by the New Brunswick Government of experts for thb en- couragement and development of the fox industry in that Province. Other measures of general benefit. such as co-cperation with the Federal Gov- ernment in immigration matters, the advertising of New Brunswick agri- cultural products at the Canadian National Exhibition, etc., have been cited. ‘These are examples from a neighboring Province which should. if anything could, awaken the Gov- ernment of this Province to some show of practical interest in the ma- jor concerns of the people who elect- ed them. v EXCESSIVE SPEEDING ‘The Grand Jury at the present ses- sion of the Supreme Court, drew at- tention to the increasing reckless- ness of motorists in driving on. country roads. During the present month The Guardian has received many complaints on this score, and judging by reports from many parts of thecountry we are heading for furtheraccldents and probably for tragedies. Sixty and even seventy miles are openly boasted of as note- worthy achievements by some of the speed fiends. The press has issued warning after warning on the dang- er of permitting this recklessnem and evident disregard for human life and property. There is only one way, it would-appear, of preventing it, namely, the arrest and punish- ment of offenders. The time to ap- ply this remedy is not. after a catas- trophe has occurred, but before. The reckless driver is just as guilty il he escapes accident as if he had been the cause of one. The lawlessness lies in the recklessness, not in the accident itself. If only the life of the motorist or the safety of his ma- chine were conccrned, it would not be cf so much consequence. If he happens to kill or injure himself or smash his machine, he gets what he deserves, but the lives and prop- erty of others are endangered. and it is here that it is the duty of the law to intervene. ' It may be necessary to put on a patrol system to bring lawbreakers of this type to justice. In any can! the law must step in at whatever cost to make our roads safe for the travelling public. The Grand Jury also directed at- tention to the violation of traffic regulations in Victoria Park. If the present police force cannot afford a watchmen for the Perk then a spec-g ial officer should be provided and the Park made safe for the women and children who have a right to its plo- tection, and many of whom are oven now prevented from enioyifll it N“ cause of the dismal-rd of certain cutouts for the traffic rllilllilfllll- ,,;, Ion-cam. none ‘durum contemporary aptly dc- Notes BLThe Way The Maritime Provinces are stated to import‘: million barrels of llour yearly from the West. And because of this and the lack of flour-milling in the Provinces by the sea. our stcckbreeders find it necessary to also buy large quantities of mill feed for their cattle. ‘This also comes from the west. The cost of flour and feed and the freight charges thereon paid to the railways make a form- idable total, running up to many millions of dollars. Moreover, the cost of transport from the point of production to the Maritimes is greater when this is the destination of the goods than when the llour and feed are brought to our Atlantic ports for export abroad. Thus a strong case is made out for the reduction of haulage charges on llour and feed. Hon. John E. Sinclair in a publish- ed interview recalls the fact that he was for some years in the Liberal Cabinet st Ottawa end a colleague of Hon. W. _S. Fielding of honored memory. That was indeed a distinc- tion worthy of being recalled. It would have added considerably to the interest in Mr. Sinclair's state- ment ifvhe had fold us why it is that Prince Edward Island is not repre- sented in the present Liberal Cabinet by himself or anybody else. He expresses himself as much gra- tified ss we all are, by considerable appropriations for the new Car Ferry and an hotel to be forthcoming in the future. But other Provinces have fully equal cause for gratitude for larger appropriations for her- bour and terminal works and in no instance have such provinces been deprived of Cabinet representation as an offset to the governments gen- erocity. The high electric power required for the talking movie picture theat- res greatly increases the danger from fire. In consequence of this ha- zard the Ontario Government has issued warning that ‘the taikies‘ can only be shown in fire-proof theatres- Hoa. Dr. Monieii-b. Provincial ‘rreas- urer, points out that the government has no choice other than to insist upon additional precautions. as since the latest us: elopmcnt in film pro- duction there have been 21 theatre fires within six months in Ontario —four times as many as had occur- ' red in any like period before. The use of poison gas in warfare is the basis of widely different opin- ions. Lord Cecil in the Assembly of the League of Nations declared that "the employment of poison gas and similar devices in warfare is an evil of tremendous proportions." But it appears that in the United States. although in favor of the outlawry of war. there are those who hold that when armed conflict occurs gas wer- fare should be allowed. In an ar- ticle in Current History this view is supported-by Mr. J. M. Scammell, who has studied the subject and his article has been endorsed by experts of the United States army. . They hold that poison gas is more humane than high explosive shells and that its victimsmearly all re- cover, while of those whose lot it was to sufler from shells, hosts were killed outright and 24 per cent of the wounded died afterward. Hence the contention that to permit more de- structivo agencies and methods of warfare and forbid the use of gas is not only absurd and imbecile but is also wicked. The murder ioll of the United States now averages about 12,000 yearly; about 50 times the number of such crimes committed in Eng- land and Wales. The annual mur- der rate in the States has increased 350 per cent since 1800. At the same time the yearly cost of crime in the nation is l3 billion dollars, accord- ing fo statements made by Wade H. Ellis, a member of the crime com- mission of the American Bar As- sociation. One of the advocates of increased indemnity for members of Parlia- ment suggesfs that both the Senate and the House have twice too many members, and if their numbers were reduced it would be practicable to raise the indemnity to $6.000 ‘per ses- sion. In this connection it may be asked why should Canada have as many Senators as the United States. or have 24s members in its House of Commons, while the States, with more than twelve times our popula- tion content with 430 members hf House of Representatives?

As you have read of how the sani- tarium treatment with good food. rest. and fresh air has saved the life of thousands, and taken tuberculosis from the top of the list as a cause of death, you have thought that,thc per- fection of treatment had been reached. However there are cases in which the above treatment was not suffic- ient to stay the progress of tuber- culosis and physicians have been striving to save these lives. Now ‘the first thought in tubercul- osis of the lungs is “rcst"; rest of the lung or lungs affected. Accordingly the patient remains quietly in bed end as this requires but little efIort-‘the ailing lungdoes little work. ‘ However even ordinary breathing in the lying down position does not give a badly affected lung a rest. and some means of “making" it rest must be taken. The first effort is what is called the pncumo-thorax treatment whereby gas is pumped against the affected lung and this so squeezes the lung that it r'~~~ not expand; it has to rest. Where this treatment has not been sufficient the nerve that controls the muscles that move the diaphragm (the fioor of the chest) downward, is cut, and so the diaphragm remains up against the lung thus preventing it expanding. And during the past couple of years still another method of giving an Q11- 1118 111118 rest, is to cut out a. portion, three inches in length, o1 the 1-155, close to the back bone. This means that as ieh ribs cannot eXpflnd the chest on that side. there- fore the lungs gets rested Drs. Morin, Cardis and Picot, Fremh Physicians, report results on fourteen cases. in which the pug“- IIIOUIOTEX and cutting the neyvg oper- ation had been of no avail, and this "b Wt"!!! Opération or thorcoplasty was performed as a last resort. In five cases they obtained a com- plete cure and in seven case; there was a pronounced benefit. Only two deaths occurred: one m three months from pleurisy with pus formation; and the other within six months from increased symptoms in the other lung.

Sun Spots and Suicide AN ASTOUNDING THEORY Three thousand years ago Chinese astrologers and necromancers were well acquainted with sun spots which they called "Iilowersf" or "Apples," of the sun, but it is only within the last hundred years that astronomers have traced a definite connection be- tween sun spots near the sun's equat- or at regular eleven year intervals and phenomena on the earth's sur- face. I Probably one of the first authen- tic instances recorded was when two observers in Britain noticed the sud- den appearance of blindingly bril- liant lines which shot across the dark surface of a. sun spot in 1859, remaining visible for about five min- utes. Almost at the same moment instruments at Kew registered the commencement of a particularly violent magnetic storm. This de- veloped quickly until, sixteen hours later, a great portion of our tele- graphic system was put completely out of action, and brilliant displays of the Northern Lights occurred.

He willwgladla on bu“ POIGIDM’: Branch Office Bootia Building, Charlottetown astro-physics have given us certain facts which can be used as a start- ing point for further investigation. Thus it is now known that sun spots are in reality vast whirls of flaming gases which, spinning at gigantic speed, are only made visible by con- trast with the brighter surface of the sun's disc. Reacts on Mars. From these storm centres a tre- mendous stream of electrical energy is shot forth, enveloping the earth and neighboring planets, and caus- ing certain reactions which are now coming to be recognized and even expected. Thus it has been shown that the appearance of large sun spots causes the polar ice caps of the planet Mars to melt far more quickly than usual. The Abbe Mor- eux, the famous priest-astronomer. and others have pIOVQd that they are responsible for variations in the world's climate, at which in turn affect the growth of corn, outbreaks of fire-dump in mines and ihc mi- gration of birds. ' 1t has been proved by Professor Douglas, of the Carnegie Institute, . that certain rings in free trunks are perceptibiy widcr than others, and research has shown that these wider rings correspond cieven-year-old cycle of sun spots. It was only last year that Dr. Maurice Faure, a French scientist. first drew attention to the fact that there seems to be a dcfinfilte connec- tion betwern the appearance of these spots and cases of sudden death, es-' pecially of persons over forty-five years of age. Investigations recently carried out in this country support this theory, and there seems to be a well-marked relationship between solar activity and the incidence of suicide. - When‘ Suicides Increase A careful comparison of deaths in Britain from suicide and also epi- lepsy with the prevalence and mag- nitude of sun spots gives surprising results. The average number of deaths in this country from suicide alone during the period of 1021-1926 was a little over 3,800 in each year. It is significant that it was always during those months when sun spots were most active that the suicide death rate was also highest. A definite connection between the two is shown in a number of in- stances, but in spite of this it is doubtful whether the electrical en- ergy thrown off by these gigantic sun storms is the primary cause of suicide. What is more probable is Mantoba No. 1 Hard Wheat famous, is now to be listed as a province where manufacturing is the dominant industry. The estimate of the Indus- trial Development Board of the Prov- ince places the value of the output of manufactured goods in the province in 102B at $159,252,000 as compared A with $132,000,000 during I927, while the agricultural wealth produced in 1027 is placed at $147,000,000. Thus, unless " “ ‘ farmers can show an increase in Production value of $12,- 000,000 over 1027, their industry must go into second place, Dunn's‘ exactly with the- that the changes they bring about in climate and other terrestrial condi- tions exercise a depressing influence on minds which, from one reason or another, require but little to throw them of! their balance. and thus adds further to the number of hu- man tragedies. It seems probable that before long further facts may be brought to light which will confirm what at present must still be in the nat- ure of guess-work. If the exact nature and function- ings of these disturbing magnetic rays can be determined, there seems to be no reason why science should not find some efficient means of counteracting their harmful rclulis. —Pearson's Weekly.
