Dynasty Overthrown
In the twelfth century, however,
the Sung dynasty was overthrown by
the war -loving Tartars and soon China.
had changed from a peaceful nation
to a warlike nation. The famous Mon-
gol warrior and emperor, Kublai'
Khan, looking for new lands to con-
quer, spied the islands strung along
the Chinese coast. These islands, al
though volcanic and often shaken by
tidal waves and earthquakes, were re-
ported to be rich in rice and food-
stuffs, Kublai Khan sent an expedi-
tion of 10,000 men against Japan, .
Accustomed to easy success when
the very name of Kublai Khan was
enough to induce wild terror, the
Chinese forces met unexpectedly stub
born resistance and returned home in
somewhat disgraceful defeat. In 1279
Kublai Khan sent an ultimatum borne
by nine envoys. All nine were de-
capitated by the Japanese, who had
already begun mobilization to meet
the invader.
Kublai Khan proceeded to call out
his mighty military machine, and
prepared to embark on a voyage de-
signated to teach the Japanese "up-
starts" a proper respect for Chinese
might.
The Japanese, fighting guerrilla
warfare, and finally aided by a mighty
typhoon which swept the huge but un-
controllable Chinese vessels on to
" anese reefs, won a great victory.
Again in 1894
It was the last time there was con-
siderable communication between the
two countries for many years. Then
relations were re-established, and all
was good -feeling and friendship .
until 1894 when Japan, having under.
taken the study of western civilized
methods, and western military meth-
ods, launched a smartly trained mili-
tary force against a decadent and
paralyzed China to inflict a stunning
defeat upon the mainlanders, most of
the fighting taking place in Chinese
territory.
Sr icicle Problem
Is Responsibility
The problem of •suicide is vast and
all-pervading di every rank of society
that it constitutes a medico -social ob-
ligation of the first importance, Dr
David Kennedy hIenderson, noted
Edinburgh psychiatrist, said last -
week at the New York Academy of
Medicine.
Dr, Henderson, who is Physician
Superintendent of the Royal Edin-
Hospital for Mental Disorders and
Professor of Psychiatry at the Uni
versity of Edinburgh, also discussed
the social menace of alcoholism and
drug addiction and the instability of
the so-called genius -personality.
Education Urged
As to the suicide problem, he
stressed that it can be successfully.
met "only by education in its broad-
est and finest sense." Ile acknowl-
edged that an advance has been made
to the extent that a person attempting
suicide is no longer regarded as a
felon, but as someone in need of help,
a sick man who with suitable meas-
ures may be reconstituted as a useful
member of society.

is relieved immediately. In most cases

Bel-Zema is non-greasy—has a pleas-

--washes off easily with warm or cold
water—is soothing and non -irritating

Two New Countri s
Displ y Here
Norway And The Netherlands
Are Entering Exhibits at
o The 1938 C.N.E.
Norway and The Netherlands have
joined the ranks of foreign countries
to be represented in the International
Pavilion at the Canadian National Ex-
hibition this year, Albert Nordhei-
mer, Consul -General of The Nether-
lands for Ontario, has been notified by,
his government at Amsterdam that'
an exhibit is being assembled for.
shipment to Toronto.
Carl J. Printz, Royal Vice -Consul,
of Norway for Ontario, has advised
Exhibition authorities that his govern-;
ment has asked him to open negotia-'
tions looking to representation this'
year. The Exhibition managemenr4
has assured the government of Nor
way that its display and representai
tives will be accorded generous treat]
ment. .
To date the foreign countries in;
terested in the development of track
in Canada on a reciprocal basis ands
that will be represented at the Exbi
bition this year are Finland, The Neth
erlands, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Nor-.
way and Germany. ,
Jan Pawlica, Consul -General for
Poland in Canada, has been notified
by the State Export Institute in. 'War=

of exhibit material will be sent to
Toronto for the Exhibition.
Climbing plants or vines play an
important part in any scheme of land-
scape gardening, adding a finishing
touch to wall, fence or verandah that
is not possible by any other means.
There is a mistaken idea that such
plants may be harmful to brick or
stone -work. Aside from the fact that
climbers add a little trouble to the
job of painting the wood -work around
the doors and windows, authorities
claim that there are no harmful effects
whatever but, on the other hand, there
are several substantial advantages.
A. house with the walls well screen-
ed is much cooler in the hot weather
tor the simple reason that sun does
not reach heat absorbing brick or
stone. As for verandahs, the advant-
age in shade, coolness and privacy of
such natural screens is too obvious
to need detailed explanation.
There are many type of both quick -
growing annuals or perennials, among
them Ones hardy enough for most sec-
tions of this province.
Productive Vegetables
The gardener with only a little land
to spare should concentrate on those
vegetables which give the. biggest re-
turns for the smallest space occupied.
Among such kinds are beans, carrots,
onions, lettuce, swiss chard, spinach,
cucumbers and beets. In the lesser-
known vegetables are: leeks, egg and
pepper plants, broad beans and cos let-
tuce. These can all be grown in most
districts. Experts advise the inclusion
of something new in the vegetable
line each year so. that variety will be
gradually widened.
Filling In
It is a good plan to use started an-
nual flower plants for planting among
tulips and other spring flowering bulbs
which will be past their best in a few
more weeks. They need something to

unusually severe:
An Alkaline Soil
Most trees, shrubs, flowers and
grass grow best in a neutral or alkai
line soil. Only a few varieties of
plants need an acid condition. Hov
*
can we tell what kind of soil we have??
Buy at any drug store 10 cents worth,
of litmus paper, take a cupful of the!
soil, add water and if a blue Iitmus'
paper turns.red the soil is acid. If it4
stays blue it is on the alkaline side.
In order to make an acid a i1
"sweet" or alkaline, first get air into'
the soil by adding sifted coal ashes,!
cinders, strawy manure, agricultural:
slag from blast furnaces, or agricul-1
tural lime,
Soil must also have drainage for;
taking away excess water. Plants can
not get food from water-logged earth-'
The soil may be clay or sand and in'
either case it must contain humus to
supply plant food. Humus is decayed
vegetable platter. :'oil from the top oe
the ground where vegetables or farml
crops have been raised contains'
humus and 's called topsoil.
