Now, like the' rest of us in spring, They wanted out-of-doors, Get out they would, no matter how, If they rooted up the floors. One brave little lad made his escape Right in the broad daylight, To see three husky men take up the ‘ chase, Sure was a funny sight. I It must have been an hour or more, They ran him round the town, And when they thought the prize was theirs, They all came tumbling down. . They tried and tried ,to corner him But every way just failed, At last a spry^young gUy Just caught him by the tail. He hugged the pig and the pig hug­ ged. him, To be hugged by a pig’s no fun, We didn’t catch all the nice things that were said, Only -“You’re a son of a gun,” But piggie is now back in its pen, And Jack is a happy man, But if Albert hadn’t got a rope on its leg. It Would still be “Catch »me if you can.” ’ ST. HELENS Rev.

URGENT PLEA FOR HIGHWAY SAFETY An urgent appeal for a “safe and sane” holiday week-end was issued by Hon. T. B. McQuesten, Ontario min­ ister of highways, when he announc­ ed .that his department would once more conduct a summer-time adver­ tising and publicity campaign with the object of cutting down the appall* ing number of deaths and injuries which put all Ontario hi mourning last May 24th week-end, “It’s not very many years ago,’* Mt McQuesten said, “that the only im­ portant worry we had over ‘the 24th’ was whether our children would come through with nothing more serious than a scorched finger. Strong public 'opinion and the determination to make the Queen’s Birthday ‘safe and sane’ has practically eliminated the horrors we used to>witness each year from dangerous fireworks displays. If we can make children act with safety and caution when they have a fire­ cracker in their hands, it seems log­ ical to assume we can do the same with grown-ups when they have a steering-wheel in their hands.” He quickly outlined the eight safe­ driving "canons” which are incorpor­ ated in the advertisement currently appearing in the Ontario press: drive at a safe speed, keep to the right, never pass on a hill or curve or when the view is obstructed, don’t park on the highway, signal in plenty of time before you turn, observe all road sig­ nals and signs, be sure your car is in safe driving condition, and most em­ phatically, if you drink, don’t drive. SPEED FIENDS / AND ROAD HOGS There is a class of folk, Their deeds sure prove no joke When they go ’ out on the highway in a car, They mostly drive too fast, Speed fiends and road-hogs, That is what they are. Now a speed fiend is a hog, And a hog a speed fiend is, When he drives his car above sixty- five, No one in any race Can on the road keep such a pace He is bound to swerve his car from side to side. A poor combination make In, any way you take, The speed fiend and tlie hog on the road, When they take to drinking beer Their vision is not clear, People in road traffic may watch for squalls. When speed fiends go driving, You would think they were striving To beat Father Time in the race; Often autos they smash through, And much mischief they can do, Such devilishment should certainly be” stopped. On the highway is the cop, Many autos does he stop And asks to see the driver’s permit; ELMER WILKINSON >■ GET A DANDY HAMCO COKE SHOVEL at a fraction of regular cost. See your dealer.

WHAT TO EAT TO BE HEALTHY • A deficiency of any of the essential foods known as vitaminst minerals, proteins, fats and jcarbohydrates en­ dangers your health. If any ope of these necessary food elements is miss­ ing from your diet, it will result in a, gradual or, in some cases, a rapid lowering of your level of health. Your vigor will be impaired. You will probably feel what is commonly known as “seedy”, and if this defic­ iency is marked and continues for any length of time you will die. You have all heard of substances called vitamins. There are at least six of these substances, all of which are essential foi- health and life itself. They have one thing in common, the daily amounts required are extremely small. For example, one pound of >vitamin D would cover the needs of the average adult for over a billion years, yet without it we would die. Vitamin A is essential for the health of the muous membranes of the eyes, nose, throat, sinuses, bronchial tubes, oesphagus, stomach, intestinal tract, and the genito-urinary passages. Vit­ amins Bl and B2 are necessary for the nerves, skin, and the normal burn­ ing up of sugars and starches in the body. A lack of vitamin C affects the miles and miles, of capillaries through­ out the- body, while vitamin D is es­ sential for the normal formation of the'bones and teeth. Without* vitamin E, animals cannot reproduce them­ selves. We all know that a lack of iodine causes goitre, and a lack of iron, an­ aemia. Copper is necessary to get the iron from the food into the red blood corpuscle?, and calcium and phos­ phorous make up over ’95% of the mineral part of bones and teeth. Pro­ teins build up the body cells and are necessary to keep them" in repair. Fats and carbohydrates supply ener­ gy, which the body uses to produce muscular effort and heat. Carefully conducted investigations have shown that when your diet is just slightly lacking in any one of the 1 t JtfOW is.the time to fill your bin with HAMCO — Canada's famous dustless, smokeless, wasteless Coke.

MacLean Estate Donald Rae & Son 4 PAGE FIVE HE WAS ALWAYS TIRED AND ILL Three Complaints Gave Him a Miserable Time Suffering from, three complaints—-- disordered kidneys,sciatica, and rheumatism, how could this man be anything else but always tired and. ill? This is what fie writes;— "Up to a month or so ago, J had suffered continually from" kidney dis­ order, sciatica, rheumatism, and gen- erally felt off colour. I was constant­ ly tired, and under medical supervis­ ion, I tried many remedies, but with­ out effect until I gave Kruschen Salts a trial. In four weeks, Kruschen has brought about a complete transform­ ation. I have a healthy appetite and once more feel that it is good to be alive.”—S.V.hJ. ( The kidneys are the filters of the human machine. If they become sluggish, impurities find their way in­ to the glood-stream, and the seed of half-a-dozen ailments is sown, The scientific combination of salts in Kruschen quickly coaxes the kid­ neys back to healthy, normal action, Sopn your ailments are relieved and. life becomes a joy again. •b 30 necessary food elements, your re­ sistance to infections, such as colds, bronchitis, etc., is definitely lowered, so that you catch these diseases eas­ ier and have greater difficulty in re­ covering than when your diet is ade­ quate. This minor deficiency of any of the necessary food elements in your diet will probably not produce any one specific symptom, but still, you will not carry on at the highest, possible level of good health. So it is very important for us to- know the food elements we need, how much of each one of the food elem­ ents we should have and where we- can get it. Through proper nutrition We can secure increased health an,d‘ happiness, greater vigor, better resis­ tance to disease, and longer life.
