Geodetic Reconnaissance
During the field season of 1930, the
Geodetic Survey of Canada, Depart-
ment of the Interior, completed the re-
connaissance . for an extensive tri-
angulation scheme covering Georgian
bay and the North channel of Lake
Huron together with adjoining lands
including Manitoulin Island. The to-
tal area, extending from the southern
of Georgian Bay to Sault Ste
?jai ', a distance of 230 miles, which
be controlled by such a scheme,
will have forty control points distri-
buted over an area of approximately
12,000 square miles.

For Distinguished Service
"Heroes are born, not made," we are"told. Perhaps this saying is true; at any'
rate the men pictured above performed heroic service to the public because they had,
in their spare time, prepared themselves to render first aid to the injured and were
ready when the emergency arose. Each man is a member of the staff of the Bell Tele-
phone Company of Canada. The Bell Telephone Company provides instruction in first
aid for all employees who desire it. Over eighty per cent. of the members of the
Plant Department are qualified first aiders. The men pictured above have saved life,
resuscitated the nearly drowned, bound up the wounded,, or, by timely action and
quick thinking, prevented serious accidents. In each case their services ha\e been
rendered not to fellow employees but to the public at large, often times at great
sacrifice and personal danger. As a mark of -appreciation, the Bell Telephone Com-
pany has made appropriate awards to its men.

Idleness is detrimental to one's

you are living in the best twin in

that kind of a one. The fingers of
one hand are those on which all the
people in the world could be count-

working. Late to bed and late to

fisheries to the Siamese Government.
So accurately can the little fish hurl
its liquid projectile that on at least
two occasions Dr. Smith has seen
lighted cigarettes extinguished in the
mouths of smokers on a verandah a
couple of yards above the surface of
the pond where the fish were swim-
ming.
When the shooting fish sights 'an
insect that it considers a likely candi-
date for dinner, it quietly pokes its
eyes and the tip of its snout above
water, holding its body at an angle
of about forty-five degrees. It opens
its wide mouth just the slightest
crack in the middle, and et the same
instant suddenly squeezes its gill -cov-
ers. The speeding drops of .water
that shoots forth seldom fails to bring
down its mark. Dr. Smith states that

More Poultry in Germany
Now Than Prior to War
Washington.—Despite e usual des-
truction of farm crops and farm ani-
mals brought about by a great war,
Germany now has more poultry, chick-
en::, ducks and geese, than it had be-
fore the start of the World War, ac-
cording to a census conducted last
December and made public by the
Commerce Department.
Steady increases are shown since
1925, resulting at the end of last year
in 6,230,400 geese, 3,886,400 ducks, and
87,937,300 chickens. These figures re-
present a substantial gain over those
obtained for 1913, when there were
5,850,800 geese, 2,086,300 ducks and
63,970,300 chickens.
Imports of eggs into Germany 1n -
creased materially until 1928, when a
decline began, the Commerce Depart-
ment announced. The 1930 imports
were 219,908,830 dozen, about 20,000,-
000 dozen less than in 1928.
Fate
Be still, sad heart, and cease repining,
Behind theclouds the sun is shining,
Thy, fate is the common fate of all,
Into each life some rain must fall,
Some days must he dark and dreary.
—Longfellow.

R CONSTIPATION
CHILDREN
CRY FOR IT—
('`iIiILDREN hate to take medicine
‘'✓ as a rule, but every child loves
the taste of Castoria. And this pure
.vegetable preparation is just as good
as it tastes: just as bland and just as
harmless as the recipe reads.
When Baby's cry warns of colic;
a few drops of Castoria has him
soothed, asleep again in a jiffy. Noth-
ing is more valuable in diarrhea:
When coated tongue or bad breath
tell of constipation, invoke its gentle
aid to cleanse and regulate a child's

you should use it to keep the system`
