M1DDLETON Provincial Board of Health, Ontario. Middleton will be glad to answer questions on Public Health mat- tees through this column. Address him at Spadina House, Spadini Crescent, Toronto. Up to the age of twenty, rheum - 'talent is a more frequent cause of heart disease than all other causes combined. This is the opinion of medi- cal authorities the world over, but Dr. Haven Emerson of New Yolk goes one step farther. He says thatheart disease, due to rheumatism, is con- tagious. Dr. Emerson cites a parallel to illustrate his contention. He draws attention to the fact that only within recent years have medical practition- ers and research students in the field of heart disease begun to realize that there is a virus of rheumatism which may be contagious. If all members of the households in which an open case of pulmonary tuberculosis has been found are carefully examined, not less than 18 per cent. of them, yyoung and old, will show 'evidence of tuberculosis in an acute or sub -acute stage. This common experience is, to our minds,' easily explained, because we can see, trace and demonstrate the tubercle bacillus, which causes the disease. . This organism can be found in the sputum of the open case of tub- erculosis, usually in the dust of his bedroom and in the diseased tissues of the persons who have been in close association with him in the horse. Now if we repeat such a study in the families from which acute' cases of rheumatic heart disease have been admitted to hospital care or to dispen- sary supervision, we shall find that here again 15 per cent. of the con- tacts, those in the intimate circle of the families, will commonly give a de- finite history or show physical evi- dence of attacks of acute rheumatic fever or of tonsilitis or of chorea with or without accompanying affections of the heart. True, •this is only circum- stantial evidence, and until some is found of identifying with exactness the specific organism of rheumatic fever and its many secondary injur- ies to heart and other tissues, we can- not speak with; the same positiveness that we do of the communicability of tuberculosis. . However, enough is ',known to justify us in thinking of and dealing with the group of illnesses which we class as acute rheumatic, as if we were dealing with an acute -com- municable infection. This calls for the simple and well-established precau- tions of so-called medical aseptic ; technique of the sickroom. No longer will it be good form: to inake a social centre and family gath- ering place of the bedroom of acute rheumatism, This includes Tommy with his "growing pains" at five, and Sally with "St. Vitus's Dance" at seven, and Dad, with sore throat, 'as well as Uncle Ned, who has a rip- roaring inflammatory rheumatism every couple of years, and was told after the last attack that he must have his tonsils out, and favor his heart a bit because the rheumatism had touched one or the valves, before it left liim weak and aenemic. Yes, even though we know that one person cannot transmit to ,another the dam- aged heart valve or the diseased muscle wall, the common cause of rheumatic heart and joints can, we be- lieve, be passed from the sick to the well in very much the same way that an acute sore throat can go the rounds of a family. Cleaner mouths, fewer, diseased ton- sils, fewer: neglected .decayed teeth, earlier recognition of sore throats and quick care In their treatment as seri- ous infections, the considered and skilled attention to the little child with aching muscles and joints+ -"too young to have rheulntaism," "kept up and about with growing pains,'—re- peated examinations of the heart after attacks of any acute infectious fever in childhood, always separation of the sick from the well; by such means will the number of acute rheumatic hearts be reduced: - Surveying the Seas. Plans for the most complete survey of the oeean ever attempted have been inauguratedby a:conference repre- senting scientific branches of the chief governments of the world. One or more ships will be fitted out with a complete laboratory and equip- ped with the latest scientific apparat- us pparatus for the first cruise. The sea bot- tom will not only be mapped, but the eomposdtlon 01 the water, its density, temperature and currents which affect the distribution of marine plant and animal life will be studied at all depths. Five -sevenths of the sedate of the earth is covered by water. This water area can produce more food than all the land can ever be made :to yield, and one of the pauposes of the expedi- tion will be to take an Inventory of such food possibilities.._ WE WANT CHURNING CREAM We supply cans and pay express charges.

HAPPY CHILDHOOD IS 1 LITTER OF HEALTH Little children quickly get out of sorts but by prompt treatment they can just as quickly be set right again! Most of their troubles arise in the first place from the stom'aoh and bowela; that is why a good clearing out is the first thing the dodtor prescribes. Moth- ers, why not let Baby's Own Tablets keep your children well? Unlike that ill-senellin:g, rank tasting castor oil so dreaded by meet children, the Tab- lets are pleasant to take and their action,. though thorough, is gentle and causes no discomfort to either the baby or the growing ohild. Baby's Own Tablets are a never failing reme- dy for relieving constipation and indi- gestion; thus they break UT colds and simple fevers, expel worms and make the teething period painless.. The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents' a box from The Dr. Williams? Medicine Co„ Brockville, Ont. Are your, friendships really friend- ships, or are they only "habits.

About 5100 Boy Scout's and Wolf Cubs of the Ottawa District were recently the guests-.of'tbe Chief Scout for. Caere de, Lord Byng of Vimy; at. Rideau Ball.. All kinds of games were ,Indulged in and there was a. genie of here and houuds'anrl a snow bottle that will not soon be forgotten. There was a heavy run on the toboggan steles and despite the fact that the ice .was sot -usenet soft a considerable, amannt of skating was indulged in. There Excellencies, Lord and Lady Byng, anal the' members of the vice -regal party chatted with many of the Scouts and Cubs and a Sew snaps of the gathering were taken by Lady 'Byng. At five o'clock re- freshments were served to all.

" _ Guard from Accident. Canadian Scout Troops might very well talco up the example -of the Lu- zerne, Pa., Scouts, who actively aid in protecting school children against traffic accidents. Four times daily the Scouts take up their work at <nowded street crossings and assist the entailer children safely across .the streets. Galt Helps Preston to Start. Last summer two boys frotn Preston attended a Boy Shout camp which was visited by a patrol of Scouts from the lst Galt droop. Friendships were form- ed between the boys of the two towns, with the result that the Preston boys later- joined the Galt Troop, and brought with then enough other Pres- ton boys to form the Buffalo Patrol. They' made the five mile trip to and from. Galt every week• -sometimes twice a'week-'•-for troop meetings; In- terest in Scouting developed in Pres- ton, The older folks begin to see that itw as a good thing, but both they and Scoutmaster Wheeler at Galt realized that the only solution to the problem of providing Scouting opportunities for. Preston boys .was to forst a Preston Troop. Thiia has now been done, the Buffalo Patrol forming the nucleus of the new Troop. In a few days the let Galt Troop will visit Preston in a body and present to the Preston organize - tion its new charter and to its, officers their certificates of registration. In this instance Galt Scouts have done a splendid piece of "Scout ]mis- sionary work"—let's hope a number of other troops wild do likewise. Brampton Organizes. Beanlpton is a new name'whioh now appears on the Boy Scout map of On- tarto. The boys of the town have wanted Scouting for a long time, but Scout Headquarters could not permit the formation of a Troop until adult leadership and backing was available. The boys finally appealed to the Opti- mists' Club (a local business men's club) to help them. The Optimists fell right in line with the proposal, agreed to back the boys to the limit, found leadership amongst its own members, and is now bard at work perfecting the preliminary details re organization and training of what will be a fine troop—and later on possiblyy two troops. Keep your eyes on Brampton. Camping Time Is On the Way. And Scouts are already thinking about 'what they are going to do about it 'when it <ioes arrive. Tents are be- ing pulled out of winter storage, are being inspected and repaired. Plans are being made re cooking, instruction- al and recreational programmes. Lead- ers are arranging their holidays so as to coincide with the dates their troops plan to go to eainp. "Preparatory" hikes and overnight camps are being held. _. 1925 is going to be another great out -door year! Between Ourselves, It is not -only true but Inevitable that one half the world does not know how the other halt lives. A much more per- sonal consideration is that we have no idea bow big our nearest neighbor's: trouble may be. He may sdt opposite to us at lunch, and we may think him a cheery soul, and din conversation we may tell him' just a few of the things that worry us; If the truth were known, the things that worry him may be ten times as many and .a hundred tines as. big! We are all apt to be self-centred. We all know men whose main topic of conversation Is themselves. Their own sorrows, their own needs, their own business, their own hones, their own possessions, their man interests: these dominate their eonvorsation. You are not like that, of coarse! But always' try' to get an outside view of yourself, for fear you approximate to this pattern. Make a start, for In- stance, at work, by getting to kbow something abort the jays and sorrows, the tristle and triumphs, of the people with whom you work. You'll find It stimulating and humanizing, both for younselt and the other fellow.
