REBEKAH How My World Wags g By That Ancient Mariner. • DEAN D. HURMDY These days, the June bride -elect is apt to get a shower or two. After marriage, she will do the reigning. "Ste. Rose du' Lae boy shoots off toe." And lots of people who shoot their faces off every day never get into the papers, At Regina, a man named Gettle was fined for pulling a child's wag- on down' the street. The wagon con- tained several quarts of home made beer, Gettle will have to settle, and won't feel in such fine fettle as when he stuck to the old metal kettle. Some words seem to be on the blink no matter which way you take them. Recent newspaper items illustrate this point: (1) The provincial police arrested a man for having in his possession a mash suitable for the manufacture of spirits. (2 A trying to mashYthe face an wits aofested for a hated rival. (3)An .old gent was arrested for trying to make a gnash on a young lady on the street, Ergo, avoid the mash, e'en as you'd un the plague, or else the machine the law will get you.

Iiuemdy Huron Old Bay's Picnic The .Alttneal Picnic of the Huron Old Boys' Association of Toronto was' held in Area No. 3, Canadian Fachibition Park, on Saturday last, and was probably the most suc- cessful in the history of the As- sociation. The weather was all that could be desired, and the location the 'nest beautiful in Canada. The green sward, with beautiful flowers of the choicest varieties forming an enchanted background, did much to add to the day's pleasure. All roads led to Exhibition Park on Saturday, and the people came from all directions, and many oId time greetings were extended for the first time in twenty years. The time of. the afternoon was taken up with exchanging. old time courtesies, and baseball thatches were played between the girls of North and South Huron, and the men of North and South Huron, with North Huron very much to the ' front, At 6 pm. supper was served the Transportation Building, when everybody enjoyed the refresh- nients so welt prepared by the ladies. After supper the various games were. carried out ' in quick ek succes- sion and the proceedings closed at dusk, after a most enjoyable after- noon's outing.

Crop Report Below will be found a. brief synop- sis of telegraphic reports received at the Head Office of the Bank of Mon- treal ftitm its Braneees, CENBRAL June, 11th, 1031 --Due to leek b# moisture crap conditions throughout the Prairie Provinces are below nor- mal, with growth unsatisfactory and pastura>e becoming critical. With the exception of fodder crops and some coarse grains, seeding has been completed. Considerable damage has resulted from soil drifting, particul- arly in Saskatchewan and Southern Alberta. East of the Great Lakes conditions generally are highly fav- ourable with the season ten days a- head of average in Ontario and well ahead of average further East. In Quebec weather conditions have been favourable and crops are making•ex- cellent progress. In Ontario crops generally are in highly promising condition, In the Maritime Provinces cool weather has adversely affected growth in some districts but gener- ally conditions are satisfactory. In British Columbia crops are progres- sing satisfactorily, although lack of moisture is causing some g eoneer n in the dry belt section.

M,O ASSOCIATE SECRETARY • BRIGHT'S DISEASE Bright's Disease is the popular name given to nephritis, or inflammation of the kidney, Richard Bright, an English physician, published his observations on disease of the kidney in 1827. His name thus became associated with the disease which he was the first to de- scribe clearly. The kidneys are vital organs; by' this we mean that life cannot continue if the kidneys cease to function. Their function is to remove waste materials picked up in the blood stream and carried to the kidneys. The normal kidney is able to remove the waste and keep the body healthy. The damaged or diseased kidney cannot do its wor and, as a result, the body is poison by its own waste. Damage may be caused to the kid cessary if the kidneys are to be safe- guarded, That is why the doctor keeps the child in bed when, to the parent, he appears to he well enough to be up. Another common cause of poison- ing is from diseased tonsils, teeth, head sinuses or other parts of the body where there may a focal in- fection, or nest of germs, pouring out its poison into the blood -stream. Nephritis may be anything front a severe acute infection to a very mild chronic condition. The milder forms are very often discovered by accident. A man applies for a position or for life insurance and the medical examine- , tion reveals kidney disease. Such a person is fortunate because he is d warned in time and can take the earo and treatment necessary to prevent the development of the condition in- ney in several ways. A not uncommon cause is over strain or abuse front bad habits of living. If the kidneys are called upon to do more than they can, they simply break under the strain, just as do other organs of the body when exposed to similar strain. Damage ge ma result from Y tIt a the de - destruction caused by toxins or pois- ons produced by germs living in the body and which are carried in the blood -stream to the kidneys. This poisoning may occur hi child- hood during an attach of scarlet fev- er, tonsillitis or any other germ caus- ed disease. In all diseases, whether evere or mild, a certain amount of oison is produced and circulated in to blood. That is one reason why tl to something more serious. Prevention of nephritis begins with the preVention of eases in childhood, omntheirabpr per treatment if they occur; removal of any focal infection; avoidance of ex- t esse smf food and drink; the use of sufficient water. To these should be added the Per- iodic Health Examination, once a year, by the family doctor, to detect the earliest signs of any abnormal condition in order that it may be pro- perly treated in its early stages, Questions concerning Health ad- dressed to the Canadian Medical As- sociation, 184 College Street, Toron- to, wi11 be answered personally by ten in mild eases, great care is ne-letter, egelt e IRIInlluu klitt 44 44 440444.
