RADIO ADVERTISING
ON SUNDAY
Wlla tever restrictions Canadian
law may ,put on the commercializa-
tion of the Sabbath, the radio ap-
patently disregards them with im-
punity, Not only does the radio
publish a great volume of adtvertis-
la goo Sunday, a proceeding for
which a newspaper would be yank-
ed through the courts, but radio
promoters sponsor entertainments
which are purely commercial in
character. Studio staffs in To-
ronto and other centres under the
jurisdiction of the 'Canadian Broad-
casting Corporation are engaged in
Sunday labor which cannot be de-
scribed either as works of necessity
or mercy. Contests in which the
participants compete for prizes are
• staged for the purpose of stimulat-
in" the site of goods, the extra-
ordinary idea being that if listeners
like a nrog.aan they will buy the
particular timepiece or teething -
rine that sponsors it.
One of the things says the Toron-
to Telegram which the nationaliza-
tion of the radio was supposed to do
for a long suffering public was to
take some of the superfluity of ad-
vertising time off the air, The old
Radio Commission has to be .given
credit for having made a gesture in
that direction. But under the
direction of the Governors of the
present Broati,cssting Cooperation i
the amount of advertising which Is
permitted to be crowded into a
, Program interval is larger than
ever, Although it was represented
that an increased radio fee would
enable to depend less on advertis-
ing for its support, the length of
advertising chatter has increased
rather than decreased,
Much of the Sunday advertising
Which originates in Canada is open
to criticism, and all of it is probably
in defiance of the law. Seven days
a week there is too great a volume
of advertising on the air. The radio
listener who has paid $2.50 for
twelve -months' enjoyment of his ra-
dio Is entitled to expect a reduction
in the advertising content of air
channels within the jurlsection of
the fee collecting autibority,

THE QUINTS
CC... IRST
We b.ve heard now and then
time has been too much attention
paid to the Dionne Quints. It has
leen argued that there are plenty
et outer rihildren in the country
which need attention more than
they do, and that they are likely to
be spoiled and so on.
But one of the first announce-
ments concerning the proposed
visit of Their 'Majesties to this
enuntry le 171114 they desire to see
the five little Dionne girls. So
th.tl setas t:u,.1• little folk in rather
high place.

,t'ament, buildings, our big

"hey will see plenty of sueh
'yavithout mentioning them in

the Qalnts.
So the five occupants of the Defoe
Hospital get the Premier. Poetttoll
and as lar as veleta of human inter,
est are 90n081'ned they deserve it.
We hear so 81111011 of thele we are
apt to forget they are the only ogles
of their kind in the world and
tourist figures will also reveal they
are by far the greatest attlaettou
we have to Offer.

WEE ANGUS
* * * (By A. R. K.) * * *
T( Wee Angus heard about a
show, where dogs and cats and
rabbits go, the name's a fancy
sound; he knows some boys who
show in there, It's quite a goodly
sizel affair, he wants to take 'his
hound.
Ti The trouble Is, Wee Angus
said, you have to go and write
ahead, that puts him deep In
thought; because 'the entry cards
they sign, have got on them a dot-
ted line, to say what kind he's got.
I( Wee Angus' dog is partly
hound, but that's not easy to be
round, ft's in his color scheme;
there's places of brown and red,
and then in patellae on his head,
between a grey and green.
it His taihs too bushy for a
hound, it trails a little toward the
ground, his feet are not much
better; he's thinner than a 'hound
should be at times it seems most
sure to me, he's something like a
setter,
e' His nose is hot like hounds
should be, and that's as .plain as
mud to see, it looks like co111e type;
It's tunny when you hear him bark,
its, ,puzzling whenyou note each
nark, he's not exactly right.
i( So Angus puzzles quite a lot, to
find' what sort of dog he's got, be-
fore he goes to show; there seems
about eight dogs In one, and jest
how entering can he done --I really
do not know.
"What
clo you think is the trouble

"Well," replied Farmer Bentoeer,

Colds are Vaught from other per.
sons having colds just as diphtheria
le °entreated from dtlllttlteria
patients, Arctic explorers, expos-
ed to all the conditions popularly
supposed to produce colds, do not
suffer from these •aihneuts until
they return to civilization and be-
come infected by contact with their
fellows,
Prevention and Care
Tho two really important matters
about colds aro first, their ,proven=
lion and se:onl their cure, P101811'
11011 may be summed up in the
avoidance Of those having an infec-
tion especially In street cars, offices
and other poorly ventilated places.
Colds, like other diseases •conveyed
in the secretions front. nose and
mouth are often transformed by dir-
ect anis lunarect contact 1hr0110
kissing, the contnion drinking MP,
the roller loyal, pipes, pencils, toys,
iingets, food and other objects Con-
taminated with Lhe fresh secretions
which carry the disease. Vitiated
air, draughts, dust, sudden changes
of temperature, exposure to cold
and wet, overwork, loss of sleep old
improper food all have some effect
In causing colds. It must be ad.
milted on the other hand that the
most vigorous will contract colds,
if they receive the infection, while
some persons are so immune that
they a0Pea1' to resist attacks of
colds year after year,
Persons with colds should at once
go to bed and stay there as long
as thele is any rise of temperature
Methods of cure had best be left
to the doctor, Some persons pin
their faith to bed, a hot bath and
a drink of whisky. Others use
vaccines, There is one vmmine,
namely that prepared py Rosenow,
which taken by mouth in doses of
ten drops once a week, is said to
prefent the onset of a cold and
taken daily in the course of a
cold seems to break it up. It is
worth trying.

infections from the trivial into the
rank of the serious diseases. The
autumn is the time for colds thought
they may oacue at any time of the
year, Many of us have from one
to three colds a year. One attack
Produces little immunity.
Oi What dbea a cold consist?.
It is a group of acute infections
of the mucous (lining) anembranes
o lithe throat and nose, often ex-
tending into the windpipe and
larger bronchi. The sinuses, that is
the hotrod] spaces adjacent to the
nose, are frequently involved. The
infection may be confined to the
nose when it is called rhinitis; It
may affect the throat as In tonsil-
litis, or as a pharyngitis, the larynx:
as a aryngltls and the bronchial
tubes as a bronchitis,
Cold and Deaughts
The popular idea that a cold ea
dine to a dnalugltt is scarcely correct
Exposure to draegb,ts, sudden
changes of temperature and chilling
of the .body are predisposing causes
al' colds, but no cold can originate
without the specific micro-ot'ganism
or bug which is the essential cause.
The Cause
Some say that a common cold is
due to a virus, that IS a germ so
