SEES GREAT ERA IF PEACE LASTS IONDOIN. Jan. l6—There has been “no fuss and no fads" during Sir James Crichton-Browne's 116i years of life. And these along with i hard work, are his recipes for old age. He celebrated his 96th birthday the other day by making a pro- phccy: “It the world does not blow itself to pieces in the horror of another war within the next few years man- kind will enjoy a great era‘ of health 1 and happiness." Sir James, a wiry, alert figure. with snowy Dundreary whiskers spread- over the lapels of his neat black jacket-a perfect survival of the Victoria medical man—was con- , trastlng the great hopes offered by | modern medical research with the' methods of destruction being devised i by the branches of science concern- ed in rearmasnent. _"If we can only avoid war we shallsoon enjoy the full benefits of | cumulative medical research." he said. "Infectious diseases will be f practically exterminatcd and the l. perils of childbirth will be re-J moved." Sir James believes man now‘ should live to 100 and women a few said. “I don't ‘ook 90. do I? Well, I don't feel 98. Why, 1 presided over two public meetings recently and I still take regular exercise and eat what I like. I am up every morn- ing by 8.30 for breakfast, and I rarely go w bed before ll o'clock."

Jan. 17_—’I\'ade es- timates the world's wheat carry- over thls year would be the smallest since 1925 did much on the Winni- peg grain exchange Saturday to offset bearlshness engendered by declining export offers in the in- ternational market. Moving up bri~kly toward the last, wheat prices closed l-B cent lower to l-4 cent higher. at vir- tually the best levels of the day, after being off 1 1-2 cents earlier. May finished at $1.25 1-2, July $1.- 20 3-4 to $1.21 and October $1.10 3-4. Short-covering prompted bya 55mm ‘ measure early next week to be forecast only 300,000,000 bushels of immediate action as agree on 31 wheat would be on hand next July encouraged the rally. The world's average carryover h 700,- 000,000 bushels. Off sharply early. coarse grains prices rallied with wheat in the late dealings. MINING (supplied by Woods-Reade lad 00111111!!!)

Jan. 17—(CP)—\At the rate of about three a day. debut- antes who were presented to- night at the official "drawing room" have been going to dancing master P‘. H. Sinclair to be drilled in the technique of court bowing, which, he says, is really "nothing much more than an abrupt duck- ing motion accompanied by aquiok jerk of the head." Mr. Sinclair says numerous “debs” have gone to his studios this year for private instruction, seek- ing to achieve the highest degree of grace 1n their presentation ciu-t- sies. 1 He declares: “All are excited and anxious and eaclr one thinks she will be the only one there." In his experience, says the danc- lng master. those who achieve greatest grace are those who have taken some form of recreational exercise, dancing or aportsin their childhood. The business of bowing is com- plicated enough if you take Sin- clair's professorial attitude, despite his “ducking motion." He says the "elevation" is the most important phase. This oc- curs when the young woman is standing directly in front of the Governor General and his Consort. She should. in one motion, rise on her toes. lift her arms shoulder high and look directly at the Vice- Regal couple on the dais. This, says the dancing master, is the moment when she is "paying her respects." draw the right foot back slowly until the right knee rests on the carpet, then gracefully droop her head. rise slowly and back away. One of her two moments is then over. She must remember to make two bows. one to His Excellency, one to l-Ier Excellency. not like the flus- tered woman one year who com- Drorntved by standing mid-way be- tween the two and bowing to both at 0M0. week and the buying spurt gave the yellow metal share index a 101.12.
