Dive Bombers Arrive in Canada—Destination, Great Britain This photograph showing United States Curtis dive bombers being wheeled down a landing at an airport on the Atlantic coast of Canada, after being flown directly from border, was taken just before France signed .the armistice. With France as their original machines .such as these will .probably be taken over by Great Britain. i road upon across the destination, 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 Airline Link .Air -minded Alaska, where planes long have been in use as ambulanc- e's and emergency carriers, was the last of Uncle Sam'e far-flung terri- tories to forge an airline link with The States.

"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." .4-4-4 ► 4.44141-'-4 4-•-•44-4.41,44 44-44 ••.F-!+ 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.

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. . rs.1-4r•n How Can 1?

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, —0— Hubby: "What are you doing with my Encyclopedia Britannica?" Wife: "1'm looking for something." Hubby: "Can't you use a bidder or a chair?" —0 --- 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." ---0— When a woman says: "And that isn't all!" you know she's just starting. —0— 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. ...CLASSIFIED A New Air Limes To South Pacific Were Opened Thie Month, to Argentina and Auetcalia Fan -American Airweyes have started trans -oceanic service over 8,000 miles of the South Pacific to Australia at the same time inaug- urating nau;urating a daily plane selredule to Argentina.
