Telephone 31 Brussels, Ont. BRUSSELS —.— CANADA THE PERIOD OF CRACKING DOWN Tre chairman of the Ontario Liquor Control Board has announced the suspension of beer authorities in Sour hotels. Mr. Odette says in-, speetors are now engaged in e.heck- iing up establishments throughout the province, and adds "We intend to crack down hard on all offenders.' !Possibly where there are so many places weal authorities to sell beer in tbe 'province it may be impos- sible to have inspectors enough to see that the latw Is being observed, but each time there is a new drive BUY'S TH115 M.

Aud It also raises the rather pertinent question as to why beer authorities should have been issued to such In- dividuals in the first place. HOW MANY 'DSO THEY KEEP OPEN There was qutte en extensive raid carried on by ,provincial police at 'Bill Beasley's luxurious madhouse' a short distance from Toronto, It took place in the,early hours of Sun- day morning. A couple of lookout men were taken Into camp first and with the sentries off duty the going was rather simple. One report says thousands of dollars' worth of expensive gambling equipment was taken; likewise a quantity of liquor which was being served to guests fromthe kitchen, Between 50 and GO men and women, referred to as "members of Toronto's smart set" were lined up se they could give their names and addresses to the officers. 'Such things happen now and then and the wonder always Is hots ,hese places mremeee to remain ones so long. 11 the police were aware of the exielauce of title place late Set- noday night it is very likely t'tcy have been aware of its ea , tnee Ter seine time.

THE BRUSSELS POST WEDNESDAY, DEC„ 3th, 1937 WHAT dS THE ANSWER? Young Liberals who were bolding their annual Meeting in Toronto had a0metthlng to say about the mare nor in welch rural mall Couriers are Paid, The feeling of the meet- ing Wee that the pay was not nearly eufllrelenl fol' the amount end nature Of the work, Without seokdg to debate or de- velop that point we believe It can be taken for granted that people in general feel the same way, But what Is the Answer? We know. there has been a good deal of hl- quiry going oar but there does not aptpear t'o be yet a eestem devised which will 'work fairly on a mileage basis. Por this reason: There are two routes running out of the came centre and they are each of 20 miles, But, one 'route is on paver Ment where the going Is good and where the road is open all winter; the other is not a good road, Even` in the summer it is hard enough go- ing in places and during the winter season it is worse, It is the same mileage as the other, but it 1s harder work and more difficult end it takes longer. Such uestions are being raised, and if the men In the business can provide the answer and explanation they will have added something of value to the diseussiOf, EALTt by Grant Fleming, M• D, -totJa A HEALTH SER\ ICE OF THE CANADIAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION AND LIFE INSURANCE COMPANIES CHRISTMAS SEALS The most effective appeal which can be made to. Canad•iaee, is through their sense of responsibil- ity to ;their fellowmen. This humanitarian appeal is not forgot- ten when it is urged that tuberculo- sis be fought on economic grounds. Tuberculosis strikes and kills at all ages, Neither the infant nor the aged is spared. The young adult hears the 'brunt of the attack. Tmbercuosis more than any other disease, is most prevalent among the poor, that group which is least which is least able to bear the tx- pense of illness. Most of She beds in sanatoria ere public beds, There are oat few families which can carry the !mane dal burden of R disease when the time required for treatenet must be measured en years and mentis rather than weeks and days. Among the young adults who fell victims t0 tuberculosis are many who are paroles of young children. If It be a mother, then the home efe will be disrupt, ilr if it be :her bre 34- wimner, the family will likely ere - tepee under an 100110r.tbie er4)0-.0111c burden.

Surprising Its it may seem, thora arc thousands of Canadians wile are suffering from tuberculosis, who are not aware of their condition. Their ignorance not only endangers their own lives, but makes of them a men- ace to others. The first step in the campaign a- gainst tuberculosis is to find the cases. It is among the members of the family, young and old, where there is or has been a ease of tab- erentosis that unsuspected classes are found most frequently. It is for this reason that the examination of contacts is urged, ,Ae this season of the year, all over Canada, Christmas Seals are beteg ,sold.
