He knows that the country is in areal need of manpower but he also knows that an unfit man is not 811 asset but a liability whether or not he sea active service. While in ser- vice he may be an early casualty from a heart. lung or other defect that was not p V enough for rejection. This means that he is not only lost for from line service but may require ser- vices of other members of his unit until army medical service takes him over. Later, he is natura1lY 9"" titled to hospital service and pen- sion. , Under the circumstances. it is not surprising that manv 399110" ants or drafted men are rejected as the medical officer does not want to take chances, knowing that While many men they reject mlizht do well in army lift-regular exercise and the best of food - it could more likely result in an increase in any symptoms Present- One of the advances in the phy- sical examination of recruits in World War II was the X-ray of the chest, which was not done in World War I. This placed onlthe medical examiner the responsibility of hav- ing these X-ray .filT1'L5 diagnosed by himself and the X-ray specialist. In the Canadian Medical Associa- tion Joumal, Drs. A. D. Temple and Everett F. Crutchloiv. St. llyacinthe. Quebec, report their results obtained from a. seven to eight year follow-up of recruits rejected with I. diagnosis of pulmonary tubercul- osis. These results showed that ap- proximately 50 per cent of the re- jections were not justified in thhl these men did not have tuberculosis and in many cases could have served in some other department if not front line service. While at- taching no blame to the examin- ing medical officers as many of the films were difficult to interpret, Drs. Temple and Crutchlow recom- mends: (a) a. thorough examin- ation of our present standards for the X-ray examination of the chest. (b) the adoption of a standard classincation of tuberculosis such as that set. forth by the National Tuberculosis Association. In addition to the above.

"There's just one thing, Mr. Marchant." he added. "I have cus- in my hands, at good prices. But the negotiations were conducted on the asumptloi-i that you were dead. You see the point? Buyers believed that no more Merchants would be put on the market." "They must be told the truth- I mean, Just as much of the truth as they are entitled to know." Peter said. "I suppose that will put an end to the demand?" "I expect to conclude the sales," was the reply. "The fact that it needed a. report of your death to recognition of the value of your work does not affect its genuine value, Mr. Marchant. Critics and connoisseurs are not likely to stultlfy themselves in that way. No, I should be glad of any canvases you happen to have on your hands. But I must make the position clear, to all my buyers." "Certainly," Peter agreed. "I am prepared to refund any money paid, if the purchasers demand it." "I anticipate nothing of that sort," he was told. "The pictures were good value at the prices paid, and the purchasers know it. You have arrived, Mr. Marchant; and when the true story of your impersonation can be told. I pre- dict a boom. For the present, I understand, you want as little said about it as possible?" "I want no publicity until I am ready," Peter answered. "I under- stand that you must be open with purchasers; but kindly ask them to treat the matter as confiden- tial, until I am ready to explain myself." "You'll be able to do that." his friend, the doctor, said confiden- tly after the picture dealer had taken his leave. "I've been looking into this business, Mr. Merchant. I took the liberty of engaging a private sleuth to investigate, at that Octagon Club. You got mixed in a racket, just as I said." "But how?" Peter asked. "The man who used your papers was a gangster called Truscott Whalen." the doctor informed him. "College Boy, they called him. He was one of the Braley gang, and his father before him. A man named Sacchonl. put Brnley on the spot, and College Boy made up his mind to fade away." "But what has that to do me?" "He had to leave in a hurry, and secretly. you see.

Peter was over in the Green Forest. Otherwise Mrs. Grouse wouldn't be talking to him. she never goes over to the dear old Briar-patch. Peter would never see her if he didn't come over to the Green For-wt. Of course, he would be much wiser if he stayed over in the dear Old Btriar-patch because he is safer there"tha.n anywhere else. But Peter, being full of curiosity. wouldn't be completely happy if he couldn't go over to the Green Forat once in a. while. Thunderer the Grouse and Mrs. Grouse were squatting under a broad. low branch. of a hemlock tree. It made almost a sort of cave; it hid them almost as well as a cave would have. Peter would not have seen them had it not been that he had gone in under that branch to get out of sight himself while he rested. Now Peter and Mr. and Mrs. Grouse are old friends. They never have anything to fear from him, and he has nothing to fear from them. so the two Grouse were not at all disturbed when Peter crept into their hiding place. "What are you two hiding under here for?" asked Peter. "Haven't youlheard the news?" Mrs. Grouse wanted to know. "What news?" asked Peter. "'rerror the Goshawlr has come down from the Far North. and is living over here in the Green Forest." said Mrs. Grouse. Peter prlelred up his long ears. 'I don't believe it," he said. "You better believe it." spoke up Thunderer. "He almost caught me. and if you don't watch out..you'll never get back to the dear old Bi-lar-patch." "If you've any sense at all. Peter Rabblt. you'll go right back there 'and stay there." said Mrs. Grouse. "Did he really try to cawh'wou?" asked Peter, turning to Thunderer. "Did he try to catch me!" ex- claimed Thunderer. "If it hadn't been for these blessed trees I wouldn't be here now." "What did the trees have to do' with it?" asked Peter. "They saved hlm," said Mrs. Grouse.
