Modern
Etiquette
BY ROBERTA LEE
Q. What might be called the out-
standing fault of a poor conversa-
tionalist?
A. Inattention to what the other
Verson is saying. A poor conversa-
tionalist is usually so absorbed in
what he is anxious to say, that he
pays little attention to what his
companion is talking about.
Q. What should a hostess say
when a dinner guest tells her how
wench he enjoyed the evening?
A. "I am very happy that you
tonld come, and I hope we shall
a lee you again soon."
Q. What is the proper time be-
fore a wedding to send a gift?
A. Ten days to two weeks.
Q. When a woman has made a
day's trip in a Pullman, and the
porter has been very attentive, just
what would be a suitable tip?
A. Twenty-five to fifty cents.
Q. if a young man is taking a
girl out to dinner, should he ask
her where she would like to eat?
A. This is not necessary. It is the
man's priviledge to decide before-
hand where he is doing.
Q. What should a m.an wear at a
Very formal luncheon?
A, Conventional day dress.
His Death A Mystery
.Air Marshal Italo Balbo, once
line of Benito Mussolini's closest
.friends and current governor of
Libya, was killed in an air battle
over Tobruk, Libya, it was an-
uounced in Rome. Balbo led a
:mass airplane flight from Italy
to America in 1934. The manner
cc his death was seriously ques-
tioned in other European capitals.
Alaska Gains

Foster Parents'
Responsibility
Canadians offering the hospital-
ity of their homes to . refugee chil-
dren from the British Isles must
do so "with their eyes open and a
full- realization of the heavy res-
ponsibilities implied," Miss Char-
lotte Whitton, secretary of the Ca-
nadian Welfare Council, warned
last week.
"The Canadian people will there-
fore realize that it will not be de-
sirable to place these little visitors
within our gates in any home that
is itself receiving relief or other
forms of social aid, or where the
child's 'help' in house or farm work
is sought for its money value,"
she said. '
"Homes where there are aged
persons only or single unit homes
with unmarried heads, cannot be
thought of as ordinarily offering
the background and experience to
give the child the understanding
and companionship that he or she
will need. Lonely children especial-
ly must not be left to themselves."

What Sciences
Is Doing i
EFFECT OF WEATHER
The weather has a ,profound ef-
fect on man's mind.
Evidence that the condition of
the insane changes markedly with
meteorological changes was pre-
sented last month before the Amer-
ican Medical Association.
The phenomenon is due, it was
concluded, to difference in oxygen
tension in the tissues, which in
turn is affected by the kind of air
breathed.
ARTIFICIAL EAR WORKS
Invention of an artificial ear, like
a bird's, for humans is described as
successful. When a patient is be -
hag fitted, the artificial ear is plac-
ed well into the bony •external can-
al until it is inside- the region
where it might be disturbed by mo-
tions of the jaw.
The patient experiences greatly
increased acuity of hearing and us-
ually his voice quality changes tm-
mediately.
FIND NEW VITAMIN
Discovery of a new vitamin, pro-
visionally termed vitamin M and
found in liver, was disclosed last
week.
The vitamin protects against nue
tritional cytopenia, a reduction of
hemoglobin and the red and white
blood cells, its discoverer said, and
may be of value in combatting ba-
cillary, dysentery.
HEART, A POWERHOUSE
A discovery that the heart is a
powerhouse of negative electricity
was announced recently to the Am-
erican Association for the Advance-
ment of Science.
The discovery was interpreted by
its authors as a new explanation of
the workings of metabolism, which
is the energy pro deel ion of living
tissues.
NEW CHEMICAL AMONG STARS
Discovery of a new "heavenly hy-
dro -carbon" by Mt. Wilson and Ca-
na(lien observers was last week de-
scribed as important by two Har-
vard astronomers who said the
finding showed the first combina-
tion of elements in interstellar
space and also revealed the pres-
£nee of pret'ious]y.i:in leteeted car-
, bon ha that area of the heavens.
'rho discovery of this molecule

HEALTH,

TOPICS
CAUSE OF ULCERS
Underfeeding causes stomach
ulcers, and good food, plus vit-
amins and especially vitamin C,
cures the ulcers quickly.
PUBLIC ENEMIES
Avoidable accidents and illness-
es are casualties which should be
regarded as forms of fifth -column
activity and our national health
discipline must be stiffened
against them, in the opinion of
Dr. I. P. S. Cathcart, chief neuro-
psychiatrist of the Department of
Pensions and National Health,
Ottawa who has given much study
to maintenance of wartime health.
De. Cathcart also advocates a
campaign against causes of in-
digestion as a wartime contribu-
tion to national fitness.
"An' indigestible mother-in-law.
at table causes more .digestive
trouble than a badly cooked
meal," he declares, and he brands
as a mistake" the fast tempo at
meal tines produced by radio
news flashes, eating "on call" and
all forms of unnecessary chatter
and clatter of dishes.
Campaign vs. Indigestion
The noted. psychiatrist has
bracketted preventable sickness,
avoidable accidents and peptic
ulcers as public enemies requiring
special wartime health measures.
He declares that stock must be
taken of our way of living if
Nazidom is to be defeated, and'
points to the fact that every un-
necessary accident, illness and up-
set taking up hospital space and
medical services, is an attack be-
hind the lines of defence.

.HAVE
YOU HEARD?
A Malan who had met a friend
in the street, was boring him with
a long-winded account of his dog's
virtues. Suddenly a eat stalked
Majestically across the road.
"Chase him!" cried the man to
lis dog.
The dog yawned, looked. on with
a bored expression and, did not
attempt to move.
Red of face, the owner con-
tinued to urge him to chase the
eat, but without any success. Fin-
ally, in desperation; he turned to
his friend and said:
"'There, what would you make
of a dog like that?"
"Sausages," murmured the oth-
er gravely,

Hubby: "What are you
doing with my Encyclopedia

something."

Two workers settled down to
eat their dinner. One began un-
wrapping a Iarge parcel at which
the other stared in surprise:
"Wot's that?" he• asked
"Well, it's like this. My ntissus
in away, so I thought as I'd make
myself a pie."
"Bit long, ain't it?"
"Oh, I dunno, it's rhubarb."

Rawlinson felt that the warn-
ing was no longer to be unheed-
ed. Many times he had felt that
concealed somewhere in his flat
was a quantity of valuable sliver.
"You are right, John," said
Mre. Rawlinson; "we must hunt
for it."
That night they spent a con-
siderable time in knocking the
walls to find a hollow place. At
last they hit upon it, and after
some artistic manipulation of a
chisel and a coke -hammer Rawlin-
son succeeded in dislodging sev-
eral bricks. There, hidden on the
other side, lay the realization of
his dreams. Valuable silver plate
----only waiting for then to take
it.
They gloated over their find.
But just as they were._ consider-
ing how they should ;spend the
money it would `realize, there
came a furious ring, and their
next-door neighbor bounced in.
"What do you mean by break-
ing into my dining -room cup-
board??" he gasped.
A little girl, a refugee
in England from Belgium,
had listened in vain for a
familiar voice. Suddenly she
heard a dog bark. With de-
light she exclaimed (in
French):
"Oh, mamma! the dogs talk
just like they do• in Bel-
gium,!"
Probably the only island whose -
inhabitants, normally about 700,
now consist solely of women and
children is Molene, off the coast
of Brittany. Every one of its
men was called for se'rvice_in the
French army.
