IIEARING AIDS SHOULD BE PRESCRIBED BY THE EAR SPECIALIST .__._. It 1s certainly gratifying to see the attitude now taken by tlle ear specialist 1n the treatment of those partially deaf, or hard of hearing as It ls qulte properly called. A few years ago, when a chronic case of hard of hearing was examined. the specialist quite often bluntly told the patient that he should have coli- stllted him sooner. as it was too lllte to do anything to help or restore the hearing. Today the specials-t tells the patient frankly that there is nothing that can be done to re- store his heal-lug, but he goes a step farther and recommends the use of a properly fitted heal-lug aid. Thus Dr. G .E. Mai-tin, Surgeon, Royal Infirmary, Edinburgh. slates ill British Medical Journal:- "An otologlst (ear specialism earl- not be justified tn sending away a patient whose heal-lug he falls to improve vt-lthout discussing with lilnl the possibility of an aid to lheltl-ing. and if surgical or medical methods deemed useless an aid to heal-lug of some kind may be pos- slble." In the United States and Canada the majority of Cfll‘ specialists sim- ply state that. its the hearing cali- not. be lmpi-ovcl by medicine or sur- gery or both, a suitiilie heal-big std should be obtained from a medical and surgical supply house; no spec- lal make is recommended as this might ilot seem ethical or proper on the physician's pal-t, Thus organiz- ations such as the American Society for the Hard of Hearing with train- ed helpers are able to advise the patient as to Llle most suitable aids to procure. However elu- specialists arerccog- nizing the fact that no one should knew quit/e as well asthey just what type is most suitable for any and every degree of hard of hearing, Dr. Martin says, "It should be for the otologisl. to adv-isle the particular type of aid which woud be benefic- ial to the patient, which means that the ear specialist must now make himself familar with the vai-lous types." "Hearing aids 111-e of two main types, non-electrical and electrical. he non-electrical are the 110m type 11nd those worn over the ears. The electrical l-ietli-ing aids may be divided into two groups (a) small microphone with a batteiy and am- plifier, 1b) the valve amplifier for increasing the range of the lnlcl'o- phone. and a receiver. The latter are 110w made quiic sin-all but have to be carried ln the hand illslcfld 0f being about the patients person. Dr. kIal-tin points out examples of certain types of deafness whet-e the electrical alcl uoud be unsuitable and others whet-e the non-electrical would be unsuitable. In other words the dny ls close at hand when the eat‘ specialist will write his pres- cription for lit-tiring aids as the oc- ulist does foi- glnsscs for the eyes. FROM "THE BURIED LIFE" . . .

The Charlottetown Guardian doe: no! necessarily endorse the opinion: o! correspondent» 1 EXHIBITION 111111111111 sin-Last Aug-list; when our Pm- vinclal llbthlbltlon concluded, there seemed to be a universal chorus of praise. Visitors, home folks, ,breeders. exhibitors and horsemen all seemed to unite in saying ft was the best show of all time. Affairs reached their climax when Mr. J. .W. Jones. M.A., M.L.A., called at l Mr Boultei-‘s office and warmly lcongi-atulated hlm saying that: tn l‘ his oplnlon "it was the best show of will time." I said to Mr. Boulhert "Remember the Scriptures, ‘beware when all men speak well of you." However, Tuesday evening the curse was removed. and the jient-up feelings which some people 1 have entertained against. the man- agement were let loose. as eviden- ced by the report of the P. E. I. Horse Breeders’ Association meet- ing publlshg; g1 yesterday morn- lneis Guardian. Mr. R. A. Profltt, Freetown made the statement that not flfty per cent of the amount granted by the Govemmetlt, found its way to the exhibitors. Mr. Jones spoke along the same lines. and also pflld the following tribute to the D-‘rrct- tars-that they were "either stu/pld or cheating." In vlew of these statements, we believe 1t ls well to publish the flg- ures with which the aud‘tor has just supplied us, which go to show that. the Provincial Exhibition pays out. directly to the exhibitors almost ' one hundred per cent of lts grants. -The grants ai-ez-Provlnclal Gov- ernment 36.00000, Dominion. Gov- eminent, $3 000.00, plus $500.00 ad- dlt-‘onal allowance for judges. mak- -ing a total of $9500.00. We pald out last year, Exhibition Prizes. 87.30188 ribbons for Llve- stock. $150.00. Judges’ Fbes, $812.01" freight refunds. $996.06. totalling $9,266.00. The amount. offered considerably exceeds the grants. May I state what has been said at every Annual Meeting for quite a number of years. that there ls no salary or remuneration of any kind. paid to the President, any of the Directors, or the Secretary-Treas- urer. Mr. J. W. Boulter. ‘This Ex- hlbltlon has been for them a matter of public duty. the responstblllty of which they have unselflshly 11$“!!!- ed ata great personal sacrifice. par- ticularly the Secretary-Treasurer. on whom falls the burden of the work. No tribute that I can give would adequately compensate lilm for what he has done towards bulld- ‘ng up our Provincial litxlilbltlon. which should be a matter of pride to every Prince Edward Island-er.

Pa rk Associ- Li}; THE VENDORSHIP Slr,——Wa.s glad to see by your Saturday's edition that a change ls being made in the Vendorsltip of this clty. Does this include the wholesale as well as the retail liquor stores? Bub why the wholesale should be allowed to honor scripts ,ln a prohibition Land like ours ls 1s11i>i>vsed to be. beats me. Is that 1‘ the reason why a certain bus driver boasted that he had carried s0 many cases of Ale ln a. weak, and when questioned about. the danger of being caught assured the quest- ioner that the Government wanted him to sell all he could-more the better. Surely the men we pill; ln power ln good faith on a. promise of 100% enforcement are not be- hind thfs illegal trade. While they are cleaning up it; might be well to lIlVESUgflbQ who ls passing out jack-knives and lead pencils to advertise Ale and Beer. It ls not enough to trot l! horse on our roads to keep the young people informed of the damnable trade lt advertlzes -we must have ft tn our boys pockets and on our desks-then we bemOan the fact that our young people are drinking because of pro- blbltion—such rot. Where did all the old drunkards come from it‘ no young people drank 25 or 50 years ago’ and how many 1 a grandmother that had a. plpe. Wake up young people you are not modem or progressive. you are, not strong minded, you are giving-away to the weakness of your fathers. and that ln the midst. of knowledge they had no wby of gaining; We ‘have a land second to none, and any young man or woman wllllng to study and work can reap a comfortable llvlng, and lay by a little for his declining years. but a beer drinking, cigarette nnoklng couple have little chant-A’ aside from the fact that all their drink- lng and smoking ls bound to ln- crease. our responsibility for the llk-re-do-wells. Yes. let our Premier see to it that he chooses the right man. the man with a conscience as Vendor, who will see to the strlct enforcement of the Prohibition law, and we who sit and weep will pray that he may find the way to a 100"» enforcement, even lf 1t means that llquor sElllng w'll send offend- crs to Dorchester for endangertw» the happiness and welfare of our 25.1931 ;; ---__ inlll or not. thinks dLIeren to us and put election issue. eimtime let the P901316 of this Province whether theybep- “ ‘members of an) Teuiperance imlmtlon or merelj the fathers and mothers of the ris- lng generation hold fast. to that which we have.

UN EMPIDYMENT Slat-In my 18811 I lnlvlled llr. _ Hemmlng tor any other) to eitlai-ge on his vlews and to show wherein operations of governing bodies m- stead 01f reducln, was not. actually increasing unemployment. He avoids this point. but asserts "well over 3.000 people out. of work, or dependent upon those who are." I agree that, tn this he has largely underrated the facts. That these numbers "will increase materially from year to year," unless govern- ments change tiwtlw, is no day dream. I disagree with his inference that “for fifty years our young men em- igrated ln search of work-(now) no longer poslble . ls a factor in the matter. The most. prosperous years of our Province was when our population was 118000. 20.000 greater than today. and when our public men were striving for 1m- mlgmnts to increase ll: to 200,000. The chief panacea employed btV sovemments to aid recovery ls by increasing wages to those already pald so well that halif a" the un- employed would feel transported lnto bliss if they could land the same jobs at half the wages paid. The effect of increasing wages abnormally ls to increase the cost and selling price of commodities. putting much beyond the reach of buyers. curtailing demand and re- ducing consumption, and propor- tionately reducing industrial em- ployment. Efforts to get back to full time, where part; time ref/urns a reason- alble living ls another abortive re- lief measure. President. Roose- velt took aneFposlte vrle-w to this. and oomipell shorter hours ln or- der to give the reduced time to help unemployed. Another stimulus to unemploy- ment ls the industrial hold-ups. 1*! for a starting point governments passed lnto Statute. that. any em- ployee leaving work without leave or legal excuse would automatically be Ineligible for rte-employment. for a. year thereafter. and deprlved of promotion rank-s. would you ever hear of a. strike ballot aflter that? Take the un‘t-. as the measure 0d’ the whole. At every vaciir-"i- how many urgent. applicants, '*" ‘the machinery of party service and sup- port is operated to land that job. Taike our local Vendor-ship in ex- amiple. The salary was first reduc- ed from $2.200. to $1800. It dldn‘. reduce the number of applicants and they got a high grade man. Then a further reduction, to $1,200, I am told. And still the fight went on. soul- words and threats went around, It was promised to more than one, but one landed lt. Drop it now to $800 and the chase after it. will continue. If Mr. Hemmlng could command a census of ‘tlnemiployetl ln the mld- wlntler of our most prosperous days. when pulbllc rellef- was unthought of’ he would find the proportion of those out of work, o1- derpetident upon others. nearly as formidable as today.

FAIR FLA! -____ MORE CALNNING Sin-I read a lettier in your papq on Chicken Camiilng stgtied bj “Observerfl who ailked me to ans- wer a lot of questions, the answeri of which I believe die must already be familiar with. If not and fol the benefit of othlel-s who may b1 interested I will triy and straighten them out. First “Observer” attempts to com- pare prloes of 10-day with prices he paid years ago-us he says he bought: tons of fbwls for from 25c to 351. a pair, and the farmers then considered those prices good. This I have answered 1n my last letter by saying there ls a certain numbei- of chickens raised on our farms every year which the farmers do not, want, and they must be sold. As the avar- age farmer knows little of what 1t costs to raise chickens he sells them for any price he cain get lri the open market, and just so long as it. ls money ll; looks 800d to him. Do not forget the buyers know this only boo well, and it ls one of the reascns why “Observer” could buy chlcklens at. 25c to 35c a pair in days gone by. Second-with record to feed he is rather skeptical of its costing 90c to raise a pullet weighing 4% lbs. "lri seven months.” If "Observer" will look at the calendar he will find from the first week ln June ulitll the first weak ln Ibbruary, which I quoted, ls 8 months, not 7. As he ls anxious 0o know what. I feed them on, here 1t ls. I paid out; $3.00 for cracked corn and. last year ‘having been a. failure with most of our farmers with. wheat. I was compelled to buy that also. which cast $4.00, the-n there was chick feed, green bone, grit, llce powder and other small articles which amounted to over $2.00. There ls his $9.00 which he wanted an account of, and that does not include any grain grown on the ftmn. such as oats, barley and peas; nor green feed such as tumips. potatoes, cab- bage, beets, etc. But “Observei” ts sttll skeptical of how I kept tabs 0n these 10 pullets from the rest of 1h! flock. and although it takes up much of your valuable space yet at the risk of inconveniencing you I must answer lilm so that he and other knockers may be_ shown the facts. t intended keel? 111959 11m W211i’ -—*- r-.-"-” i: (Continued on page 5) youth and people generally, It 111' surely not a less crime to be guilty of supplying the youth and people generally with the cup that gteals away thelr brains and undermines their health. than to steal coal. food or clothing for which sortie of our young men are sent to penltenuiry. This ls otir testing time. We tine the last of the provinces to stldt by Prohibition. The eyes of the other provinces as well m the Temperance world as a whole awe on us.
