Brucefield Men's Club.=The May
meeting of the Men'sClub 'held
r e was e d
g
last T'hursd'ay evening. Pt was another
open meeting to which the ladies of
the community were invited to listen
to Dir, A. Moir .of Hene!all, who gave
a very interesting and instructive ad-
dress on the Preservation of Health.
Dr. Moir very ably discussed his sub-
ject for ,nearly an hour, after which -
he submitted himself to questions
from the audience on any medical
sulbljeldt oae wished to ask about.
Many interesting matters were dealt
With during anothel hour which was
thoroughly enjoyed by all present,
The doctor spoke in his discussion on
the wonderful health -giving factors of
radium, and told rn detail of its, dis-
Covery and 'devebopmenit,and said that
while Xray and violet, ray werewon-
derful, they were still artificial and el-
ectric, while in this more or less new
thing, radium, we had from nature the
nearest thing to actual, fife that the
world has yet d'isoovered. To the writ-
er's mind, however, the most unique
thing at the meeting was the oppor-
tunity given to .each one .present to see
radium, as he had five needles with
him which he disp'layed so that every-
one had a chance to witness its wond-
erful health -giving ray's. The men of
the community who are not availing
themselves of mem'bersh'ip its this
Men's Club with its opportunities Of
listening to these outstanding ..spealk-
ers, are cert'ain'ly passing up sonn.e of
the better things of life. The member-
ship fee is merely nominal, and entit-
les anyone to come and. bring ,their
friends with .them. I't may- be paid to
any of the present members, or to J.
