Kidney Saves a Life—When the kidneys fail to function, poisons normally eliminated pile up in the body. This brings on acute uremic poisoning, generally fatal, unless the condition :is quickly relieved. .T.{or that purpose, the Allis-Chalmers Company developed an artificial kidney, shown in photograph above. It is a refinement and improvement of a design by Dr. NNT. J. Kollf, of Holland. It was first used on a 55 -year-old salesman, in whom uremic poisons had 'been ac - m tuttla.tin for six days. Doctors said that without relief his case was hopeless. He was conscious and aware of the treatment the entire three hours during which his blood flowed through the machine. Two weeks after the treatment, he walked out of the hospital saying he felt "better now than I have for years." -Memory is a queer thing, isn't it? ,All of a sudden, out of nowhere, tomes a flash of recollection — a mental picture of something that -nay have occurred many years ago, yet stands out with all the clarity and vividness .of life itself. I know .I express myself badly— 'but I think you'll understand what I mean. And just the day before yes- terday, for no reason at all, I found myself. thinking of a tiny boy—he's a grown. man now, with children of his own whose mother was trying to coax him to_ eat something he didn't care for. Carrots, perhaps. "They're awfully good for you," -said the mother. "When you say something is good for me, mum," answered the youngster, "it just DAMNS it for mel" Nowadays, l think, mothers are wiser. They don't try to wheedle their families into eating their vege- tables. They serve them up in dif- ferent ways, and make them so tempting that no coaxing is needed. The following vegetable recipes will be a help to some of you, I hope.

Canada, stalwart champion of democracy, shares its strength from the peoples of many nations and its variety and colour from the blending of their racial and cultural heritages. Rich in natural resources, Canada has enriched herself culturally by interweaving the national charact- eristics of these many races, whose common bond is citizenship in the Canadian Family. Greece, cradle of democracy in the Old World, has fought and suffered through the centuries to retain, democratic freedom. Today, many Greeks enjoy the security and privileges that Canadian citizenship affords. Inspired by their natural love of independence, many have started their own businesses and built them into successful enterprises. Greek literature, architecture and philosophy have contributed much to Canada's culture and the thrift and progressiveness of her people have won the respect of all Canadians.
