FOOT CORRECTION by manipulation Sun -Ray Treatment Plume 207 Across'the road was the usual ar- ra'3' of houses, large and smell. One look was enough to tell what class of people lived in them. The majority of the houses had apartments' to rent, but the houses outside must have been indicative of what the inside was Bice. There were two classes. In one neat- ness and•;tideness were the predomin- ating feature The' Iady 'of the house came out fairly early In the Morning to "tidy up" the'verandah and front walk. She herself was neatly dress- ed in morning attire, The flower bed at the front showed care. There were no curtains on the verandah, but there ryas' a screen of the ' most glorious morning glories. Another house on the same street was exactly the opposite. No lawn mower had touched the grass all sum- mer. There Was no sign of flowers inside or out. Seldom does the house wife come out to sweep the verandah and when ,she does it is usually in clothing which should be discarded before she conies out in publie view. These instances oftwo classes of homes which anyone may see as they leek out the window. What kind of a home do you live in? Then there are different people who walk along. Ones heart goes out in sympathy to many of them. You know that they are tarrying heavy hearts. Some are on the way to busi- ness and seem hardly able for duties which lie before them. Their faces tell that worry forms a large part of their lives. We wonder if they are walking with our Saviour, who will help them, day by day or are they trying to carry on the struggle of life alone. It has been said that in Eastern eountries some of the ox yokes are so constructed that a heavier ox may be yoked with a lighter one and thus take the heavy part of the burden. So it is in our lives, if we work with our Saviour He will take the harder part of the work. All we have to de is to lean on Him for support. We see the children hurrying off to school. At first they come slowly and usually in groups. Some times peace reigns but at others some child comes along who is always ready to fight and there will be 'a free for all'. It is that same spirit of unrest which is with the world today. Quite often it is the same 'child who causes the trouble day after dray One feels sorry for the younger and smaller child who is being chased or pounded. Such a disposition ,grows up with, a child and in later years makes the man or woman undesirable company in any group. Can parents not talk their children out of that sort of thing? Next along comes the postman, He goes cheerily up to the door not knowing the pleasure, or it maybe the sorrow, anxiety or perplexitj which the mail delivery will bring to the dif- ferent homer EDWARD W.

The mineral, Gorcei- xite, has no value in itself, although it is a good "indicator.. that dia- mond's are about. The'new discovery is accepted as further evidence that the great bulge of the Brazilian coastline once fitted snugly into the vast bay in the Afri- can coast on the other side of the At- lantic. It is regarded as a very use- ful contribution to the theory that the entire land mass of the world once fit- ted together like a gigantic jigsaw puzzle. This theory of Continental Drift, or the migration of the continents, is advanced to explain the origin of con- tinents and, ocsans. It maintains that, aeons ago in geological time, there was ohe vast continent known as "Angaea," completely surrounded by water. The earth's rotation and the gravitational pull of the sun and moon broke it up into individual blocks, which drifted apart in a westerly di- rection until they became the contin- ents shown on our maps. This drifting movement is certain- ly ertainly going on today. Observations and rneasurntents of the stars definitely prove that Greenland is movng away from Scotland by about 60 ft. each year, while the distance between Washington and Paris is increasing by about one foot a year, or more than 50 feet since the Atlantic cable sink into their minds? The tragedy of marriage is where either party considers that the bond of wedlock lasts simply through the time of "for better." When the days of "for worse" come, as they are sure to then their solemn promise given to God is quickly and easily broken. There is a great deal of adjustment on both sides to be done. Some think no more of breaking that solemn vow than they do of breaking an every day ap- pointment. God help the homes was laid. It was in the striking similarity of the Brazilian ands African coast- line that the theory had its starting point. Its supporters point to the map which, southward' of this bulge. and curve., show projections on the one gide corresponding to similarly shaped, bays on the other. Other 'p'aIts of the World, they maintain, can be joined together in like fashion: the Atlantic seaboard of North•Ameriea will match, up with Western Europe and North Western Arica, with Greenland filling the gap between Norway and the North-east coast of Canada. India fits into East Africa at Zanzibar, New Zealand into the eastern coast of Australia and the resulting block into the African-In- dian frican-Indian mass. The result, they argue, is the solid continent of Angaea. The theorist say,that it is the shift- ing weight of this vast land muss which has pulled the 'earth over on to its present axis ,and thereby caus- ed the great climatic changes of the past. Glacial rocks on the equator, which indicate that this zone was once frozen like the Polar regions,. are thus satisfactorily explained by the theory. The goroeigite pebbles in West Af- rica were found by Dr. N. R. Junner, an Australian, and Director of the Gold Coast Geological "Survey. He forwarded samples for report to the Imperial Institute, London, who esta- blished:the identity•of the mineral and are about to publish an account of the discovery in their bulletin. V RADIO IN THE WAR (From A. Research Worker) Since the start of the war Britain has made remarkable progress in ap- plying radio to war purposes. Radio -location is, of course, the out- standing innovation: It can be brief- ly described as a system for detecting and plotting the position and course of aircraft by multiple radio beams which, when they encounter any ob- ject ,inform the operator of its pres- ence. The hydrophone, as used by ships ,provides a rough analogy: It plots the contours of the ocean bed or detects the existence of submarines in the vicinity, In radio -location the intersection of where suets. a Condition' exists: Quite the.bean .by aircraft is recorded ,in a prominent man was well. on in years each transmitting station and the pos- when his wife of about the same age itio)t of the intersecting :machine is took sick with what proved to be her last illness.

The News -Record Automatic alarms which ring a bell the moment a fire bomb gets into a building may be a new ally of Brit- ain's hundred's of thousands of fire - watchers this winter. Britain's Ministery of Home Secu- rity invited the Institution of Eleetri- eal Engineers to consider the problem. They chose a committe to get into it and the result is a report on devices. one of which detects incendiary bombs by operating electrical circuits ruptured by impact. This device has a closed electrical .circuit veith a special "detector. con- ductor"v as ono of its parts. Should! a fire bomb get into the building it brealcs this conductor and sets off a bell. The aclvantage of the idea is that the alarm rings at the very second that the bomb hits the building and therefore before it has had time to start a fire. • Other methods arc also described, such as the use.of light detecting photo cells to operate the alarm' by the effect of the bright light from the bomb. These systems, have been standardi- sed and, specifications isued by the British Standards Institution. , Note to Editor:'Facts from the Bri- tish' Sfandardie Institution, "Every duty, well and honestly done, is a contribution to victory."
