MORALS . . THEN AND NOW
We are not one of those who be
lieve that the moral standards of the
human race are deteriorating. .We
don't know that we would say they
be needed if everybody were to be
supplied with all the goods he needs.
The problem is on of distribution,
and that is not going to be solved in
a day. But I think we are coining out
of the depression with a great deal
more accurate knowledge on this and
many other economic problems.

PAVED ROADS
A deputation from the Bitiewater
Highway Association interviewed
Hon. T. B. McQuesten, Minister of
Highways, last week. It was hoped
that this depute -don could persattde
the Ontario Government to take over
the balance of the Blue Water High-
way from Goderich to Wiarton, and,
if possible, to Toberomry.
are improving, but, taken by and The north half of Huron County
large, I think there• is little differ-
ence between the morals of 1934 and
those of, say 1884.
The principal difference is that
people talk and write more about
breaches of morals than they used to
in the days when such things were
not discussed in public. Boys and
girls behave about the same as they
used to, and I think about the only
difference is that there is less par-
ental restraint There are more di-
vorces, true but that doesn't signify
that there weren't as many grounds
for divorce fifty years ago as now.
It is simply that it is no longer re-
garded as disgraceful to be divorced.
Just now many things are done and
exploited publicly that used to be re-
garded as strictly private affairs. The
pendulum will swing back, as it has
many times in the eourse of history,
and we shall see another era of hush-
ing) up moral lapses instead of mag-
nifying or glorifying them.

PRODUCTION . . Distribution
One good. result of the depression
aridthe consequent efforts of thous-
ands of intelligent thinkers to find
out what caused it and how to pre-
vent another •one, is that we have
learned, for the first dine, a lot of
facts that nobody knew about our ec-
onomic system.
When we have all the facts maybe
somebody can do something about it,
though it takes a long time for facts
to become generally known. A lot
of loose talk has been heard in the
past few years about "over -produc-
tion." But now it has been ascertain-
ed, with what seems to rne convinc-
ing definiteness, that in almost every
line of industry the equipment for
production is far below what would

has been for years paying the gas tax
and motor car license fee and getting
Little in return. Eight miles of pave-
ment has been completed from Clin-
ton to near Blyth on Highway No. 4
and this is the first work of this kind
done in this part of the County.
Before any of the paving is done
in Huron County this highway should
be paved through to the Durham
Road. We understand that some per-
sons are trying to stir up interest in
having the , road from Wingham to
Harriston taken over by the Govern-
ment and paved. If this were under-
taken all the arteries of traffic for
this part of the county would be
complete as far as necessary.
We have no objections to any work
being done on the Blue Water High-
way but we feel that Highway No. 4
and the road frotn. Wingharn to Har-
riston should be paved first.

ABOUT REMEMBRANCE DAY
Numbers of newspapers appear to
feel that they are combatting a wish
on the part of ex-esrvice men that
Remembrance Day be celebrated on
Monday as is usually done when a na-
tional holiday falls on a Sunday.
Those who think this are very much
in error. Remembrance Day is the
most solemn of all days to the citi-
zens who were soldiers. There is on-
ly one possible clay on which to ob-
serve it, that is November 11th. No
ex -service man who understands the
nature of the day would dream of
having It made into a day of revel,
as always happens to other holidays
when they are carried over a day.
Some day the public will underitand

for.—Goderich Star.

HOBBLEDEHOY
"Hobbledehoy" is an old word that
is used to describe the awkward
youth who is neither man nor boy.. It
is for the hobbledehoys that we would
ask some consideration for thein, their
awkwardness is not at all amusing; it
is a trying state of self-consciousness.
The child does not grow slowly and
steadily; into his adult size. There are
periods when growth is particularly
rapid. The first year of life sees the
average child increase 'hi,: weight
threefold. At no other period of life
is there such a tremendous rate of in-
crease in weight. During adolescence,
there is another spurt leading to a
reinarkable increase in both height
and weight.
This period of rapid growth during
adolescence occurs earlier in girls
than in boys, the girl attaining her
full growth at an earlier age than the
boy. It is because of this .rapid
growth and an increase in strength
which is proportionately greater than
the increase in size that the adoles-
cent frequently becomes clumsy and
awkward. Hands anal feet seem, for a
time, to be out of proportion and dif-
ficult to oentrol.
Furthermore, it is at this age that
pimples and blackheads most com-
monly appear to add to the discom-
fort of the adolescent, who is, per-
haps for the first time, conscious of
personal appearance and who is thus
rendered. unhappy by a combination
of awkwardness and bad complexion.
Throughout life, the child requires
from his parents a sympathetic under-
standing of his probletris, Failing that
he withdraws into himself—a most un-
healthy thing for him to do, or he
fights back in a self-assertive manner.
The latter is a much more healthy
response, although it is apt to be re-
sented by his parents and others.
Help can be given the child over
this period by not drawing attention
to his awkwardness. For example, he
should never be called clumsy, and his
size and his actions should be ignor-
ed. Clothing which fits, rather than
clothes which have been outgrown,
will help. It should also be 'explained
to him that the overactive oil gland
in his skin which causes pimples is
normal to his age, and that the con-
dition will respond to treatment and
most likely correct itself in a few
years. He should be praised for his
successes instead of having his fail-
ures pointed out. He should be en-
couraged to have plenty of rest, to
keep his skin clean by frequent bath-
ing, and to eat a balanced diet, avoid-
ing an excess of sweets.

dressed to the Canadian Medical As-

THE IMPORTANCE
OF MILK
Children's meals should be built
around milk for it is a food which
makes valuable contributio n to the
normal growth and health of their
rapidly growing bodies. Milk not only
supplies proteins of highest quality.
•for muscle building, fat and sugar for
heat and energy, vitamines for prote.s.-
tion, but is the most abundant source
of calcium and one of the best sources
of phosphorus, the two minerals which
form the foundation of the bones and
teeth. It is, therefore, of paramount
importance that every child should
have sufficient milk to insure the de-
velopment of a firm set Of teeth and
of a well constructed body frame-
work.
Eminent authorities are agreed that
a child requires about a quart of milk
each day. This amount may be easily
provided by serving milk as a bever-
age and by using it freely in anaking
cream soups, milk puddings and oth-
er nourishing dishes. Children should

be taught to drink milk slowly and to
take it'at the end of the meal, as they
may neglect to chew their food thor-
oughly if they drink milk along with
it.
The majority of children like to
drink rnilk, but occasionally there is
a child who is not fond. of milk, in
which case the mother is confronted
with a real' problem. Patiently arid
tactfullyshe must create a "milk ap-
petite" in the child, by preparing it
in appealing ways. Good results have
been obtained, particularly with
younger children, by using simple me-
thods such as these; allow them to
drink the milk through a straw;
change the appearance and flavour of
the milk by adding a small amount of
chocolate, caramel or maple syrup,
fruit juice or honey; tell them inter-
esting stories which incidentally bring
out the value of milk; allow them to
serve themselves—a child likes to be
independent and enjoys using his own
pitcher and pouring the milk into his
gl.as; paste a colored picture on the
bottom of the glass—the child is at-
tracted by color and will drink the
milk in order to see the picture which
should be changed frequently; child-
ren are hero-worshippers—tell them
about the athletes and other well-
known people who drink milk in or-
der to grow strong.

PALE, PEPLESS GIRL BECAME PRETTY
—AND WASN'T SHE PLEASED !
It all happened in 30 days! In November the girl was pale,
run-down and lacked vitality. Weight subnormal; only 91% lbs.
Her blood, when tested, WEB found to be low in red corpuscles and
lower still in haemoglobin, the red substance in the red corpuscles.
She was given a 30 -clay treatment. And what a happy change took
place
She gained nine pounds and her complexion glowed with rosy
health. Her face rounded out and she became positively pretty.
The treatment—as shown by a second blood test—had greatly in-
creased the red corpuscles and haemoglobin in her blood, conse-
quently she felt and looked radiantly well. The preparation that
worked these wonders was Dr. Williarae Pink Pills.
This famous old remedy restores health in a most constructive
way. We know that the blood carries nourishment and vitality to
every part of the body. But unless the blood has a sufficient number
of red corpuscles and red colouring substance called haemoglobin,
it cannot carry on its vital work. It is here that Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills produce constructive benefits. This remedy increases, in most
cases, both the redcorpuscles and the haemoglobin. Blood tests
prove it!
Good looks and good health are too preeio as to neglect or experi-
ment with. If your feelings and your mirror tell you that you are
under -weight, nervous, sallow, easily tired out—take this tested
remedy, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, for 30 days, as the girl mentioned
above did. Then check up on beauty ancl health you have gained.
