In their early .teens it is quite OM, mon for .girls to outgrow their strength, and mothers should carefully watch the health of their daughters at this time, for it is when strength is sap- ped by too rapid growth, that anaemia develops.

Flowering depends on reserves, whether in bulb or tree, in oak or daf- fodil. "The power to form flowers, is bound up with the power of the plant to lay by stores of reserve material." And though, as Ward reminds us, some herbaceous plants flower a few weeks after sowing, whilst some tree pro- duoe no flower until they are fifty or sixty years old, they share a common +secret. Within wide margins of dif- - Terence they obey the great law, of re- serve. The beauty that sooner or later find's expression must first of all be stored. 'How impressive is the patience and restraint in the trees of :the forest! No oak is to be hustled. Cedars can- not be "forced" like rhubarb. Their growing forms are • quietly serene. Most great productions in art Or in: character have something of the same serenity. They are not born of haste to make an impression. They grow quietly in the background. They come of lifelong patience and faith, of that patience which has been defined as "faith with her lamp ht." So grew the cathedral at Amiens, and dad Vinci's "Last Supper" and Dante's • great trilogy. Those who are wise pluck the early Hower buds that rootage may be the more secure. In the case of the great- est, a stern face has been set against immediate bearing. The richer the na- tive talent, the sterner the discipline that restrained. As a child,. Kubelik was a musical prodigy. People came Miles to hear him, and almost worshipped him. No end of offers came to his father; man- agers, we are told, were only too anxi- ous to pave his cottage with gold.' But that father was a• gardener— poor enough in earthly things yet Vise in his craft. He knew that to strain for immediate result would mar the child's future. "He refused all offers and, setting stoically to work, toiled as never before, to win, penny by pen- ny, money for the boy's education." For six years Kubelik worked at his violin at the Conservatoire at Prague. When his triumphs began it was the father, who had earned the applause. No won -der the son said he always played best when he imagined his father was in the audience. • Surely that --- seer=father had learned the le .1g his flowers. It sometimes happens that the things we get for nothing cost us more than the things we buy. Motorists usually diseoyer what causes the wheels te. revolve upon 'paying their gasoline bill. sari+ ok.romosiO11.1 e a Book of Recipes for Delicious Salads, Sandwiches, Egg Dishes, Cheese Dishes, Pickles and Relishes.

The broadcast will take place on the night of Thursday,.September 16, on. board His Majesty's Ship Cal- cutta, moored in the Port of Mont- real, when special programme will be played by the Royal Marine Band..

The Vice Admiral accepted the in- vitation of the Radio Departanent 1' the Canadian.

The musicians will be stationed an the upper deck of H.M.S. Calcutta where three microphones will gather in their performances. Telephone cir- cuits will carry the music to the studio of ONRM and from the latter studio lines of the Canadian National Telegraphs will connect with ONRO at Ottawa and the latter station will engage in a 'simultaneous broadcast on its regular wave length, The band, under the direction) of Bantdnaas'ter Herbert Wright, L.R. will commen:oe at 9 o'elocli with the march past of the Royal.

An added feature of this programme will be the rendi- tion of the ''ogle calls of the British Navy with. an explanation of each call. An address will be delivered by Lieut. -Commander W. V. Heaybeard, entitled, "Our First Line of Defence." A year ago CiNRAI broadcast the band of H.M.S. Calcutta in a studio programme, the first broadcast of such a character, while the coming broadcast is said to be the first ever transmitted from the deck of a British warship, KEEP CHILDREN REN !ELL DUift G..HOT WEATHER• Every mother knows how fatal the hot summer months are to small child- ren.

Racial Origin—lrish;else) Scottish. Source—A given name. - It would be hard to find a set of family names in one group which are so little associated with one another in the average mind. Yet they ail cone from the sante Source. . Certain of them, such as Melvin, 141acllwane and Maclivain, are, per- haps more commonly found among families of Scottish bloodin this coun- try. The Mulvaneys, O'Mulvansys, Mullenys and O'Miilvenas are more likely to be of Irish extraction, cer- tainly so in those- naives which tire proceeded by "O." Like virtually all the Gaelic name's, the great •diversitlt;,,of spelling in these different forms is the result of the at- tempt ttempt to spell the names in English as they sound in their original Celtic tongue rather than to transcribe the Celtic spelling into the English equiva- i lent. - If this latter was done the correct £grin of the name would be "011atilf-' hiona," or "MacMaolfhioiia." It is from the latter form that the Scottish variations of the same are derived l.. through the e.iminatioii, for easier pro- nunciation, of the initial "M" in the body of the name, Ilius, "Mac (M)Aolf- Ilione" is easily transformed, in view of its pronunciation into "Maclivain. The family or clan name comes from the given name. of "Maoliiona," the meaning of which is "devotee -ef Wine." $poli a name, of conrsa, was considered ' no disgrace in the distant past, when S it was forilled, long liderc the period I even of Mohammed, the first prohibi- tionist. MATHESON. Varlations—Mattie, MacMathan, Ma- thieson, MacMath, Mathewson Mat- tison, Mathison, Mattis, Matson. Racial Origin—=Scottish and English. Source—A given name. All of these fancily names are de- rived from the given name of Matthew, which Itself means "Gift of God," and '— is """""'is Hebrew. Its spread throughout Eur - ops, of course, was due to its promin- ence in the Bible. While Mathison is nota Celtic form of name, it is nevertheless the name of a clan which was once one of the most important. in the Scottish High- lands The form Matheson. like that of Mathieson is but an English ren- dering. The Gaelic designation of the clan was "Clenn Alhathain, from which the fancily names of MacMath, MacMathan and Mathis have been evolved., the last named through a propping of the "Mac" which originally preceded it, and which in the Gaelic denoted "descendant of," dust as the termination "son". in Anglo-Saxon and the prefix "Fitz" in Norman-French did, and as'the endings "Witt" and "vita" do to -day in the Slavic tongues, these "itzes" all being corruptions or developments of theLatin -"lilies," which was abbreviated "Ills." (Give the "s" a "z" sound, then make the "7. - sound sharper, and you have the cliauge complete).

The Health of School Children. The month of September has certain logical claims to prominence, it is the first month of autumn; it is the tran- sition period between Summer, with all its joyous outdoor activities, and Pall with its evidence of winter's ap- proach; it is the harvest month, and is often depleted as a period of thanks- giving. It has, however, one other claim to everlasting prominence, It is the month with which is assoolated the return of children to school. Play is a natural child activity, school is a simile for work, long confining hours, and prosy books. The importance of education has long been realized, by all individuals and agencies. Many pleas have bean conceived as to :how it may be acquired and distributed. A generation ago few If any of these dealt with anything but the question of intellectual attain- ment; all now realize the fundamental importance of the present health and the continued well-being of the child at school. The Inspector, Prineipah and teacher are equally interested with the school doctor, dentist or nurse, in the physi- cal condition of the boy or girl. The interest of the parent •1s taken for granted. The school health authorities manifest their interest by attempting to safeguard the child from contagious disease, by supplying school buildings - Progress. The history of the world consists - mostly in the memory of those ages, quite new in number, i•n which some part of the world has risen above its self and burst into flower or fruit. We ourselves happen to live in the midst or possibly in the close of one such period. More change has probably taken place in daily life, in ideas, and in the general aspect of the earth dur- ing the last century than during any other four centuries since the Chris -e tian era; and this fact has tended to mare us look on rapid progress as a normal eondition of the human race, which it hag never been. --Prof, Gilbert Murray.

Are parents realizing their responsibilities? Has advantage been taken of the oppor- tunities during the summer vacation, to have the children immunized against diptheria or scarlet fever? Have they been vaccinated . against smallpox? Have the physical defects noted by the school or family physician been corrected? Has the advice of the school dentist been followed? Frankly, are you sending your child- ren back to school, physically equip-' ped to profit by the educational ad-, . vantages available, or are you one of 1 the comparatively small group, who , ignore such worthwhile advice and are 1 resting in a false sense of health se- eurity?
