CALL YOUR DOCTOR EARLY
By Dr. Gordon Bates
(-General Secretary, Canadian Social
Hygiene Couneli)
A little boy sat beside a window,
with his head on his hands.
He seemeu quire mwtferent to
the shouts of the other youngsters,
at play in the street, He looked.
very miserable.
Now usually,' when a little boy
does't want to go out to play, his
mother knows that something's the
Matter. If she is a rather careless
mother she must just clo nothing,
and let him sit there feeling nmiser•
able mother she may give him a
dose of castor oil, or send him to
bed, or both.
But if she is an intellirer.t, mother
,she will send for the doctor at once, :
before her child has a chance to ret'
very sick. By doing that, she rimy
save his life,
Little Jim's mother was intelli-
gent, and she loved her child. So be-
fore long a car stopped at the heur.c
and a big man. came in with a little
satchel. Several minutes pas -:ed,.
then : •
"Now I don't think you have any-
thing to worry about", the dater
said. "It's diphtheria all right, :.at

hours before sieetieree medical at

a different story. 1 t l, hei reenv-

frighten anyone. On the contrary,
it is hoped that of those who read
it, some at least will find- new se-
curity, new protection against dis-
ease by cultivating the habit of cal-
ling upon their physicians when
slight physical trouble begins to
bother them, just as a sensible mo-
torist takes hist car to the garage
when the engine develops a little
knock, instead of waiting until the
bearings are burned out.
Remember, a o -tailed 'simple'
sore throat may he the beer -ming
of scarlet fever or diphtheria. .A
resin, ordinary little cough, or a
high temperature may herald pneu-
monia, tubereulo'is, or scarlet fe-
ver. A pain in the stomach to -day
may mean acute appendicitis to•
morrow. Any one of a number or
'simple' little discomforts may be
signs of the beginnings of any one
of a dozen diseaeec.

Remarkable .development is shown
in the annual review Of hydro -electric

significant, coming int a brae when

less (11itn $330,000,000- will be re-

pended in power development compe-
tent authorities have estimated that
six dollars is required In its applic-

visualize the c•ffecet throughout the
country of the expenditure of an

"With regard to the activities of
1923, while the works of grt.-alest
