Those reasons but there is another phase the are partly economic, of the possibilities for Canadian agri- culture in the agreclnellts reached at the Ottawa Conference. The preferences granted to Canada ‘in the agreements with the Unfted lKingdom largely concerned agricul- ture and agricultural products and muesli-n which appeals to Canadian the analysis of British import fig- people. winch influenced Premier Bennett's rlerwol. and dollbfiles ,- Mr. King as well when his govern- ment; was in ofllce. That phase is the militantly athiestic attitude of lhme in power in Russia today. A recent report from hfascov: SW5 that the ofllcal organ of the anti- rellglous section of the special com- mLsslon for the. fight against rF-‘iiir ion has just publshed a five year plan for the abolition of all reilg- ions on the territory of the Union If Soviet Republics. The plan tnkFs ls starting point the whole-sale liquidation of all religious beliefs. communities and sects. The pian has b.cn approved by the party lluthontlcs and is there- fore promulgaied as a law. It spec- ifies in its 1i8 articles that during Ric first year all corlferslonal schools.

In the larger cities of the Union the churches of all sects and de- lures show what a huge market thus 115 opened to the Canadian farmer under preferred conditions. A feature of the figures on cheese exports is the piohilnehfe given to the dec.ine of Canadian cheese exports to Brit-om. It is pointed out that. these dropped as -much as i0 per cent since i926. The reason for this, and a policy for the future. should be one of the great- est concerns of our agricultural ex- perts. Canada is naturally fittrd as a ‘producer of foodstuffs m quantity. iThe United Kingdom is easily the world's largest imponer of each of ifive products-butler. cheese, pre- lserved mlk, eggs and egg products -dealt with in the pamphlet, and the magnitude of that country's ill-ports from foreign sources makes lthe Empire, taken as a unit, a not ‘in-‘Wrirr. on a, considerable scale, of each of the five products.

Like many other paradoxes probably turn out to be untrue. But even if it should be true, note might be taken of the fact that tlfé provinces and the cltla do not spend several million dollars on pigs as they do on children. Beyond these 31¢ the millions of parents hi wilose budget the care of children con- stitutes a sizcuble item. In Canada we take salt pretty much as a. matter of course. When the supply in the kitchen runs short. a new order is rcceived from the grocer. It is difierent in many of the Far East oountrlw. Salt is heavily taxed there. At present the Nanklng Government of China is trying to equalize the salt taxes. n: Shanghai the tax is $3.03 for every measure of 133 pounds. In Arlhui i-tovirlce the rate is $9.10. In the regions of the Upper Yangfsu Riv- er the levy runs from $10.90 to $12. 1n one of the provinces adjoining Shanghai, the impoSt is $7.10. In the different provinces every governor collects tile salt taxes and sends so much to the central government at NanklnB. This amount ls considered the legal rate. The surplus is kept by the governor and with it he pays his personal troops and other ex- penses. The arrival in" England of the United Kingdom delegates to the Imperial lilconcmlc Conference at Ottawa opens the second chapter in the record of the great enterprise upon which the British nations have embarked. Enough has been said and written already in Britain since the c1059 of the conference to indicate the character of this new chapter. Beyond doubt Mr. Baldwin and those who were associated with him in the Ottawa deliberations will have to face vigorous and insistent criticism from those Liberal and Labor remnants which are not among the supporters of the Nat- ional Government. The old free trade shlbboletl-i dies hard, and pol- iticians who are more concerned in personal advancement than in the economic welfare of the Empire are seizing eagerly -upo'n what they hope to be a popular plea against the taxation of the people's food. l-lon. Arthur Sauve, Carladian Postmaster General, ls responsible for giving a pleasant little souvenir to each of the delegates at the Imperial Economic» Conference. Green leather folders embossed. with the arms of the Dominion of Can- ada. and engraved with the inscrip- tion “1932 Ottawa Conference" have been presented. Each folder con- tains a. complete set of the special issue of rtamps for the conference. A full set of the regular issue is also in the leather case. The memen- toes are being prized by those who received tllémslt- is lust a pleasant touch to rcmnd them of their month at Ottawa. This is the way an American newspaper to wit, The Detroit News. sees the recent Imperial Conference at Ottawa: "The world has been afforded the spectacle of several nations owing allegiance to one sov- erign. but masters in their own houses, getting together and discus- sing commercial matters on a give- arlri take bass, each trying to get at the same time recognizing a com- munity of interest. Is there any good reason why such a community of interest should not be world-wide? Any good reason why any country should wall itself off from the rest of the world and declare that. it will make no reciprocal bargains with no one? Not a single agree- ment made at Ottawa seems to have this positcn. Canada as a centre for hog pro- duction for United Kingdom needs was stressed during Conferences debates and lt is interesting to note what encouragement the Empire Marketing Boardneport holds oilt to our farmers in this respect. It states: "The Empire emerges from the inquiry with more than a third of the. ‘world's sheep and 40 per- cent of its csittlixbut withno more than four per cent of its pigs. of the 280 million rigs in the world. only l2 percent are Empire pigs. "The United Kingdom is a heavy importer of bacon, and im- ports from 0l."ide the Empire have been ln.. aslng of recent years. averaging wel lover 400,000 tons annually. Ninety percent of the imports of bacon and ham were oi‘ foreign origin, about '10 percent of the bacon from Den- mark and 80 percent of the hams from the Unted states."

FITTING SHOES ‘ When the hundreds of thousands, yes, millions of men were called up for war service in the United States and Canada it was found that about 35 per cent in the Uni- ted States ancl nearly 50 per cent in Canada had some form of foot trouble due to improper fitting shoes. These foot troubles were ooms. bur-lions, callouses. fiat feet, painful feet, and hammer toes. Hammer toes are where the toes have been cramped up in such a snort nar- rlow shoe that they have become permanently bent. These toes can- not be straightened out because the joint is practically solid bone. In the old days the oobblcror shoemaker measured the foot and made b. shoe to fit it. With the coming of factory made shoes with their neat artistic appearance, the shoemaker went out of business. Now it was not the fault of the shoe manufacturers that people immed- iately demanded neat narrow foot- wear, and what was known a “toothplck" shoes were very fash- ionable a few years ago. However practically all manufac- turers now ars supplying neat at- tractive shoes with sensible width for the toes as people are wise enough to know that foot comfort must come first. The trouble however is that very many still wear a shoe that is too small for them and frequently too narrow also. In a number of the larger shoe stores now it is poa- slble by means of the X rays to see how the foot. fits the shoe. This has saved many people from resorting to arch supports or other devices to relieve painful feet. A shoe that had the proper length and width was all that was really needed in these cases. What are the main points about the proper type of shoe? ' It should be low at the heel, so as not to send the weight of the body over on to the toes. This heel should be broad, not narrow. , The inside of the shoe should form a. straight line right from the heel to the end of the big toe. The part around the ankle should be snug fitting instead of loose. The entire shoe should be flex- ible; that is the arch of the shoe should support the weight of the body without being too stlfl and hard. There should be plenty of room for the toes to bend and stretch. a had any other basis than hard- headed business sense; but each is believed to be profitable to both parties. How much better these bar- gains than a. policy of trying to sell as much as possible abroad, but refusing to take payment in goods- a policy that is bound in the long run to defeat itself. Yet that is our American protective policy, and it has gone a long way toward making possible the agreements between our two best customers to deal with . each other, rather than with us.‘ "When is this nation» of supposedly I shrewd business men going to wake. up?

We need not concern ourselves as to how an eclipse is caused—every schoolboy knows it. But every Qclkpgg of the sun adds a. little more to our knowledge of that luminary and of the manner in which he does h‘: work. In those precious seconds when the eclipse L! total and the sky is black, the telescope shows the "corona," a tenuous streamer of the aurora, and stretching out from the sun into space perhaps 350,000 miles. Layer-like inside tbs corona. lies the "chrounnsphere," of red hydrogen, 5.000 miles thick, whose “prominence? leap out with l. speed 100 times as fast as a. rifle bullet. and rival the corona in their reach. Beneath the scarlet chrom- osphere is the “reversing layer," 1,000 miles thick and deeper still lies the real sun, the "phoiosphere," an incandescent cloud of unknown thickness. (The photosphere is the location of the sun-spots, which we reserve for future " All our knowledge of these solar "layers" has been gleaned during eclipses. . We know that the gravitational power of the sun is able to keep the planets revolving round it; it is twenty seven times as great on the sun as on the earth. Why then should the red tongues of hydrogen flare out into space? Why are they not held down and compressed to the body of the sun? Sir James Jeans, British astrophyicist, answers that radiation exerts pressure, which is able to throw out these fantastic wralths" of hydrogen despite the formidable force of gravitation. Professor Eddington, another British scientist, finds that the sun's rad- iance is due to the atomic energy evolved when “the protons and elec- trons are themselves being annihil- ated." It is an easy matter to prove that light. under ordinary cir-oumstan es, travels in a. straight line. 531' Isaac Newton, however, held that during a. total eclipse the light of nearby stars is seen to be sent out of its course by the gravitational pull of the sun: and he attempted to formulate the degree of flexurc. On reexamining this pheno- menon Prof. Einstein found that Newton's calculations were too low, and that the degree of curva- ture ought to be double that given by the older scientist: and so far, results obtained during recent eclip- ses bear out Einstein's theory. This is perhaps as far as the layman needs to follow his selen- tlflc brethren, and we can now tum to the terrestrlnl effects of eclip- ses. There was an eclipse of the. sun, visible here, on April 38th, 1930, which reached its maximum phase at 4 p. m, but although a.- bout half the sun's surface was obscured there was not such a dim- inution of light as was expected and none of that awesome serlsatlon ..:-..... ) shadows. At 4.45 p. m- the B1111 W" lmin half cleared, and the light ‘increasing. The disc was apparently clear at 5.20. This eclpse was com- parable to that of i925 in duration and intensity. - ~ At the centre of the ecllpses's path and at the moment of totality the observers must have beheld a strik- ing spectacle as the stars shone out. From its position in the zodiac the sun is near Regulus (or Oorleonis) which, ilthough not a first magnit- ude star, is very conslfcuous and beautiful; Jupiter and Mercury are in close proximity and, or course, the moon. ‘All these, then, were linedup for n. tug-of-war, so to speak, against our old Earth, and their influence was so foreboding that astronomers looked for- ward with fvireboding to the hour of the eclipse.

The wurrlols brought back from the East many of the turies afterwards now adorn the English orchards and landscape gardens. It is exactly flfty years since the Metropolitan Public Gar- dens Association was established 1n the Old Country. The particular objective sought by this organiza- tion was the embellishment by gar- den, of vacant lots, which had beforetime been allowed to run weeciy wild. Today, in Hampstead alone, there are six hundred acres under florist culti- vation after this manner, and the “open space’ societies have just reason to feel elated at the gener- ous and beneflcient outcome of their endeavours. One ofthe out- standing features of Old Iondon Town today is the presentation of prizes for the trimmest garden plot, and this includes even such efforts as a. window-box display in quar- ters where the bright face of a flower seems a living gospel of hope set over against the murky atmos- phere of the slums. It shows what can be done by way of bringing the "breath of Springtime into Piccad- l1ly," and we understand that night unto the Poplar Dock-yards the keen interest manifested by the habltants in floral culture is deem- ed one of the most potent influenc- es making for the nelghbourly sen- timent of camaraderie and touch- ing all life into gentler mood. There is memory in o. garden which strikes on the tendest chord of human relationships and in an educational way reminds us how each of us should obey the urge to become part and parcel of the communal life in an uplifting; cheerful, and serviceable fashion. And if man, in times of serfdom, oppression, battle, slavery and pov- erty, prays for sparks of comfort flowers and fruits which seven cen- and places - and some sort of heart-balm, than; heaven the garden flowers can u. ways give it.
