beg of the company's meroantllo
fleet on a scale which made it
a source of pride to all Canad-
ians; and he enhanced and en-
larged the position of the com-
pany in the confidenoe and re-
gard of the people it eexves
throughout the world. His admin-

history of the company.
"Mr. D'Alton C. Coleman was
elected president of the company.
Mr. Coleman joined the company
in 1899, and after :reeving it in
various parts of the country as
an officer, was elected a director
and vice-president in 1934. He is
the fifth to hold the office of
president since the formation of
the company in 1891, and like his
immediate predecessor was born
and educated in Canada."

Modern Etiquette

people, to speak to another person
while someone else is already
talking to the whole group?
2. How many attendants does
the bride at a home wedding
%asuany have?
3. What is the fundamental
principle of good breeding?
4. What type of social stationery
is in best taste?
5. Is ten cents a sufficient tip for
one person, when checking one's
wraps?
6. When a girl is introducing her
sister to' a person, should she call
her "Miss Jones"?
ANSWERS
1. No. It is rude to "cross con-
verse."- When one attempts to
talk with another person while
someone is talking to the entire
group it probably prevents that
person from listening to the first
speaker, He may be very interest-
ed and wish to listen.

them have no bridesmaids at all.

ed upon, but be sure to avoid
exaggerated tones and conspicu-
ous designs.
5. Yes, Of course, some will give
more, but ten. cents is sufficient.
6. No. "Mrs. Harris, this is my
sister, Ethel."
C.P.R. President
Resigns Office
Sir Edward Beatty le Sue-
ceeded by ®'Alton C. Cole-
man
Sir Edward Beatty has resigned
as president of the Canadian Pao-
ific Railway and is succeeded by
D. C. Coleman, vice-president of
the company, Sir Edward remains
chairman of the board. The change
in presidency is affective immed-
iately.
The official announcement said:
"At a meeting of the board of
directors of the Canadian Pacific
Railway Company held May 1, Sir
Edward Beatty, chairman and
president, tendered his resigna-
tion because of the state of his
health.
Taken 111 In March
"Sir Edward Was stricken with
illness in March, 1941, brought
about largely by over-exertion and
too close application to his multi-
farious duties and activities.
There has been a marked im- '
provement in recent months, and
that improvement, happily, is
being maintained; but his doctors
have advised him that early and
complete recovery can be reach
ed only if he divests himself of
some of his burdens and responsi-
bilities. The directors received his
decision with deep regret, but
agreed that he should not bo ex-
pected to prejudice his chance of
recovery. At their request he will
continue to act as chairman of the
company, and thus be available
for counsel at all times.
"The directors placed on record
their appreciation of the out-
standing work Sir Edward per-
formed as president during the
past 24 years. He brought to the
service of the company and its
shareholders a rare combination of

and W, 0. Maxwell, company officials, look on.
Took Post In 1918
Sir Edward graduated to tiib'
presidency of the company from
the law department in 1918 when
he was a week under 41.
During his tenure in office the
railway expanded to become
known as the world's greatest
privately -o w n e d transportation
system. Under him Canadian Pao-
ific developed railway, chipping,
telegraph and hotel services with
expenditures of many millions of
dollars.
When Lord Shaughnessy retired
from the presidency he offered
the goat to Sir Edward, who at
first refused. Shaughnessy is re-
ported to have exclaimed: "My
God, Beatty, do you want to be a
mere lawyer all your life?"
Sir Edward was an exponent of
a unification program for the Can -
adieu Pacific and Canadian Na-
tional Railways. He wanted the
unification to be under private op-
eration. The Government decided
for co-operation but with each
company maintaining its own.
management.
Sir Iidwerd was born at Thorold,
Ont., in 1877, son of Henry Beatty,
Irish founder of the Beatty Steam-
ship Lines operating on the Great
Lakes,
He was educated at Tor•outo. He
went to Harbord Collegiate Insti-
tute, Upper Canada College, Tor-
onto University and finally Os-
good° Hall. Later McGill 'Uni-
versity and Queen's honored him
with chancellorships.

What Science
Is Doing
TO CURE "HICCUPS"
The case of a man who hiccuped
himself to death was reported re-
cently. The hiccups lasted 26
days and nights; he could neither
sleep nor eat, and finally died of
eichanrstion. The average oase of
hiccups lasts only from a few
minutes to a few hours, but it can
be a tantalizing complaint, restat-
ing many kinds of treatment,
Hicoups are apparently due to
a spasm of the diaphragm, the
broad, thin muscle that separates
the abdominal cavity from the
ohest cavity, says 'Science Digest.
Scaring the patient is about the.
most useless of the many "reme-
dies." Other supposed Qures i
elude drinking water slowly, hold-
ing one's breath, counting num-
bers, pressing the upper lip, elec-
tric shoes to the skin, and ee
Borth,
The following is a reliable meth-
od of treatment that has been used
successfully in several cases. It he
based on the fact that carbon di-
oxide gas—the gas that is used
in soda water and that we exhale
from the lunge—can stimulate the
respiratory nerve centre.
The only apparatus needed Is ars
ordinary paper bag.. The bag is
hfmly placed over the nose and
mouth of the patient, who is asked
to breathe into and out of it. A.e
the oxygen in the bag is used up,
the exhaled carbon dioxide gas ao-
cumulates, so that in a few mid.
otos there 10 enough to produce a
curative effect.
If the patient begins to hiccup
again, the treatments should be
repeated. In one case in whiok.
this method was used, the patient,
a .girl of 22, who began to hiccup
while convalescing from infienza,
was relieved six minutes after she
had been Hiccuping continuously
for 42 hours. After seven hours,
the spasms again began; the bag
treatment was again effective, this
time permanently.
General MacArthur'5
Flight From Bataan
"The inside story of why Gen-
eral MacArthur was pulled out of
the Philippines can now be told,°'
comments Newsweek. "As Iong as
it was possible to get supplies to
Bataan, Washington believed Mao -
Arthur's chances of holding out
until the U. S. was able to organ-
ize an expedition to relieve him
were fairly good. However, it was
feasible to run the Japanese block-
ade
lockade only from the Netherlands In-
dies. When Japanese successes
late it February made it apparent
that the United Nations could not
hold Java much longer, it was
decided to order MacArthur to
Australia."
