B A- ON &0WENCW Qn Monday eveixing the Young People’s Society of Muiu Street United Glxurch were out ill full force to hear a splendid address on "What Can Reading Concerning Science Do for Me1?” delivered by tile popular Science Master in our High School, Mr, G. O. Koch. After a humorous introduction he defined science as knowledge so classified and organ­ ized that it can be used in acquiring other knowledge, Then he proceed’ ed under six leading headings to .answer the question of tlxe address’; “Wlxat Service Can Science Render Me?” Illustrating each division with appropriate explanations and in some cases historic incidients. His headings were: Scientific Read­ ing,— 1. Gives instruction in health pics. 2. Renders definite service ward the proper organization, and support of home-life, 3. Contributes to a broad prepar­ ation fox’ vocational work. 4. Improves oux* citizenship. 5. Opens the door to many pleas­ urable' avocations. 6. Assists in the development of cliaractex’ by developing sane and sound methods of thinking upon the problems of life, In conclusion Scientific Reading teaches us to think and if we think as St. Paul tells upon the best things we shall be immeasurably blessed. Science helps us to under­ stand God and his work. Mr. Koch’s remarks! on astronomy bore fruit at once and aftex’ tlxe meeting was ovei’ he was surround­ ed by a. group of young people, ask­ ing him to point out certain con­ stellations mentioned.

The regular meeting of the W. C. T. U. was held1 in Mam St. Church on January 25th. Mrs. Medd had charge of the devotional exercises, opening with the hymn, “Take Time to be Holy.” Prayers were offered by Miss Hogarth, Miss Murray and •Mrs. Pearce. Two hymns were sung and the lesson was Psalm 1. Miss Murray took the chair for the re­ mainder of the meeting. She first read an atricle by Dr. Roberts in the New Outlook which made an ap­ peal for more prayer during the coming weeks leading1 up to Easter. It was moved, seconded and carried that the week of iprayei’ be observed by the W C. T. U.. Other’ meetings ■to be held in the homes, the Thurs­ day meeting combined, with the pray­ er meetings, and on Friday with the World’s W. M. S. day of prayex’ on February 12th. Miss Murray, Miss Shapton and Mrs. L. Beavers to be a committee to arrange places of meetings and programs. It was moved, seconded and carried that our regular day of meeting be changed from the last Monday of the month to the third Thursday of the nionth. The Clip Sheet about the wines of the Bible was in charge of Miss Shapton. In the old Testa­ ment we find there were some com­ mands concerning the use of wine. The priests forbidden to use wine during all the time they serv­ ed in the Tabernacle. Wine was forbidden by the Nagarites and the Rechalites. All leaven, which would include fermented wines were for­ bidden even to be in house dur­ ing the Passover’ Week, from which we see that there would be no fer-! mented wine in the good man’s house where the Lord partook of the Passover and there instituted the Lord^’s Supper. Also it must be remembered that the Jews in the time of Christ were a temperance pople and drunkenness was looked upon as a Gentile vice1 and we can understand Paul’s norror of the drunken feasting of Gentile wor­ shippers. None of th* trospels use the word wine in connection with the Last Passover or the Lord’s Sup­ per but the cup “the fruit of the vine.” Christ laid down the great principles of love and brotherhood for all time andi all peoples, wMch were destined to overthrow every evil thing, not just a code of person­ al conduct. Paul applied these prin­ ciples in his repeated warnings against drunkenness and wine. THOMAS THOMPSON DIES The death occurred of Thomas Thompson on Saturday, January 23, at the home of his brother William Thompson on the second concession of Tuckersmith.

Grant, R.N., at the Wo­ men’s Institute meeting Tuesday af­ ternoon. The term "sanitation” calls for a consideration of mans’ environment and that which he consumes as food and water. The protection of a- drinking water supply offers not only an opportunity fox’ valuable service, but it is a duty, tlxe muni­ cipality owes to the public. The use of water universal and. the protec­ tion of its safety is therefore, one of the first lines of defence against the dissemination of infectious di­ seases. We all knoiv that many diseases such as “Typhoid Fever” in partic­ ular, are spread through the agency of drinking water. Every growing municipality is sooner or latei’ faced with the question of providing a municipal water supply in prefer­ ence to private individual wells, but iix a great many localities the aban­ donment of private wells can seldom be accomplished. In a great many cases, it is useless to ask the house­ holder to foresake a cool, cleai’ well water, even though it be- polluted, and turn to a municipal supply which is less palatable on account of chlorination, which is axx excel­ lent barrier- against water diseases. There are several ways in which our private wells may be protected. First; Consider its location. Second; Have a concrete, watex* tight top in­ stead of boards which, in time, de­ cay, causing a considerable amount of space between the boards, allow­ ing surface material, carried! on shoes, to be washed into the well with the next rain storm or the next splash from the spout, simple method fox’ protection drinking water is to boil using. The use of a common cup was responsible for many diseases, before cosimunicable diseases was given very much con­ sideration. Its place has been tak­ en by sanitary drinking fountains and individual cups. (2) —“Spitting on Side-walks” One of the filthiest and most dis­ gusting habiits is that of spitting on side-walks. It is particularly no­ ticable and objectionable in the win- tei’ and spring when colds are prev­ alent. ’The Board of Health can do very little to prevent this habit. Ed­ ucation is the only source that v,'till have .any effect in preventing this.. (3) —“Milk Sanitation.” Milk Sanitation involves cleanli­ ness iix production and necessitates: clean cows, clean hands and clean Utensils. The utensils should be thoroughly scalded before using. A great many of oux* dairies protect the public by pasteurizing their milk. Milk is responsible fox’ the spread of much sickness. Where pasteurized milk cannot be obtained it may be rendered safe by heating to 142 degrees Fahrenheit, for 3.0 minutes. (4) —"Flies" All flies are filthy because they feed on all kinds of filth andi carry this to the food of humans. -Oux’ food should be well protected from these pests. There are several ways Of getting rid of flies, but great care should be taken to prevent attrac­ tion, such as garbage cans not being properly covered; or by leaving re­ fuse lying ai’iound, (5) —‘‘Food Handling" Disease can be carried! hand; through food to the Our liands should therefore, perly washed,, before handling food. In all public buildings where towels ax’e used, tho Department of Health advocate the individual papei’ towel, Which is a great factox* in the pl’O- Vehtion of diseases, (g)__"TtoUi’ist camps and Re­ freshment Booths,’* .; * The Health. Department of Ontar­ io has, during the past three years, paid special attention to the sani­ tation of motor tourist camps, and stands ready to giv® assistance in this connection. The extensive use of automobiles is respbnsiblo fox* sb many of these refreshment booths that you see dotted, along the high­ way. They are found near towns and In front of farm houses. The thy the mouth, be pro- tourist trade calls for a goods- and- the contents booths include; candy, cream, xniik, sandwiches, drinks, tobacco, etc. faced with the problem of choosing a booth which handles refreshments in a safe and sanitary way. He wants assurance that the water and soft-drinks are safe; that the per­ ishable foods are fresh and proper­ ly refrigerated; that the ice*cream cones, candies, t-obacco, etc., protected from flies and dust, that anything he may consume not endanger his health or be wholesome because of careless hand­ ling. The Ontario Department of Health has provided a method to solve this -problem and to pro­ject the travelling public, They send out inspectors to inspect these places and the booths must meet the partment’s standards, such as frigeration where ineat, milk, other perishable goods are sold, safe water supply where soft-drinks are prepared on the premises; suit­ able arrangements fox* washing dish­ es; protection of containers and all refreshments from flies, dust, etc.; a clean booth and healthy attend­ ant, A certificate of approval is iss­ ued to a highway refreshment booth only after a thorough inspection is made. If these booths meet with these requirements of the inspector, a blue card is placed in a conspicu­ ous place where it can easily -be seen by the public, and “Public Patronage” to these booths, show­ ing a blue card, will tend' prove the service, generally, the same time, benefit the considerably, (7) -—“.Spring Clean-up” A great many of our towns and cities have a certain week in the spring of the yeax* which they call ‘'Spring Clean-Up Week.” This is not only a protection to the public, but helps a great deal in the beau­ tifying of the town, the accumulation of should have been handled day-by-day week. In most places, the town pro­ vides a way in which this garbage may be collected and disposed, of. In a numbei’ of towns in Ontario, they connect spring clean-up with .the Horticultural Society. St. Marys is fast earning the reputation fox­ being 'the “Town Beautiful.” Aylmer has made itself a bower of beauty by planting Spirea in the spaces be­ tween the boulevard trees, with the results that the tourist’ goes miles out of lfe way to see, the town of flowering shrubs. One community in the north, known as' Iroqutois Falls deserves a great deal of credit for maintaining cleanliness and beauty, as someone lias said, the whole town is one beautiful garden. (8) —“School Sanitation” Satisfactory ■ school sanitation is important, both from the viewpoint of the health of the children and educational value. There are too many of our schools that are of the old primitive type. If a survey was made of some of our schools, they would be immediately abandoned. Important factors for satisfactory school sanitation is propei- lighting, natural light fr’om properly pla-cqd windows and artificial lght for dull days. Blackboards and seats are impor­ tant "factors. Adjustable seats should be supplied. (Satisfactory heating and ventila­ tion is very important. The water supply should be safe, adequate for both drinking and washing, and easy of access for pupils. Individual drinking cups and pap­ er towels are cheap and are force­ ful health lessons. Sanitary toilets should be provided and instructions given tb the pupils for its use. (9) —“Street Cleaning” In nearly every municipality, the importance of keeping the streets clean, is recognized considerably. Sweeping and flushing are the most common methods. Clean streets make for an attractive appearance of the town and add, to the health of the community, while neglected streets mean that filth and germ­ laden particles of dust fill the air; are deposited on food, and are taken into the lungs and stomach. (10) —“Picnic-ing Grounds” In Ontario, picnic-ers have earned the reputation of being very littery to the disgust of those wh'o have to clean up th& litter of rubbish and scraps. In Scotland they have re­ sorted to a limerick which is print­ ed and placed in conspicuous places in an Aberdeen resort to serve its beauty. “Oh you who have come sitter, We pray you litter; Your paper and And chocolate Lest feelings against you, be bitter,” (11) -^—"Swimming pools” This is one -of the summer’s main attractions. Swiinmers -cannot usual­ ly avoid taking some water into mouth and nose, consequently water’ should be as safe as that quired for drnfcing purposes, in-door' and artificial pools must he chlorinated in brder to protect the bathers. Safety demands that you look around before you dive. Where possible, it is advised to use artifi­ cial pools.
