to Lord Rhondda, the Food

announcement by saying that lee wa,s

would have to come, and the it was
on
way, and
thenen declared that
his department had completed a
scheme, and that us soon as the sale
tion of the Gate et= he.d been r'ecei-'
ed it would be carried out.
Lord Ritooddal' warned his hearers
that there would continue to be
shortage, though the Position would
improve, and improve steadily.
"There is nothing alarming in the
situation," be said. "Yon nave only
to tighten your belt, The people of
this country are undergoing nothing
like the privations in. Germany.
There they ,have leas than a poannd of

was, however, no great depletion in.

cattle, but there was a large supply.
"Food, said Lord Rhondda. "in
my opinion should have priority, of
tonnage and finance. Them has
been an enormous increase in wages,
.zggregating one hundred million;
sterling a year, and this increases the
difficulty of getting down the price of
food."
The Food Controller strongly; sup-
ported communal 'kitchetrs, and ,said
that Government grants would be
made where necessary to establish'
then. He incidentally disclosed the
fact that Lady Rhondda got the
Christmas dinner fdr her family

added:

Chloroform for Old Sayings.
The Arctic explorer Stefannson—
who ought to know—has knocked
the foundation out from under sev-
eral old sayings which had come to
be regarded as solid facts. Among
other things he says autlaoritatively
that frost -bites cannot be remedied
by rubbing snow 011 them; that
there is no harm in eating snow
when you are thirsty; that Eskimo
houses are well ventilated and are
not generally ill-.emelling; and that
in his whole oxperience north of the
Arctic Circle he has never encounter-
ed anything so bad, so sudden, or so
disconcerting as a typical North Da-

Novel Bo/let-Finder.
An, electro -magnet which tells the
position of a Millet by causing a
sound "very much like a steamboat
whistle" in a stethoscope placed on
the patient's skin 13 one of the re-`
cent developments of war surgery,
according to' Surgeon -General Foth-
eringbam, of the Canadian
Army Medical Service,' By means of
the new magnet the exact position of
any electro -magnetic substance, in.
'chiding the German bullet, can be
determined. When the bullet is not
deeply seated a vibration is set up
by the magnet which can readily be
made out by the hand. When too
deep for this, the electro -magnet is
placed on one side of ,.he patient's
body and a stethoscope is inoved
about on the skin opposite the mag-
net. The steamboat -whistle sound
indicates the nearest point to the
foreign, body, and the skin is merited
at that point. The developmertt of
the locating of bullets by this mag-
net and similar means since the war
began would be, according to Sot--
Iy- amazing to a civil surgeon.
