He wants to fight him for nothing at the Cancer Fund matches. Not a penny. But the fans wouldn't stand for that match after the beating Szabo took from MicM`illen." It would appear therefore that if Curley's matches are fixed they are fixed Dutch, as the boys would say. Mr. 'Markey's personal opinion after a season of mild excitement at the ringside is that the struggle for the main matches at least is quite an honest thing. He believes that the first 20 or 30 minut osme con- testants the bouts may be hippodromed. show off their virtuosity, try- ing one spectacular hold after an- other, and flinging each other about with a temporary friendliness. Once theoverture is done however they go vention of dental caries. That diet plays'the most important part is indicated by other investiga- tions. Dr. Milton Henke, whose re- sults were reported at that time, has since published further data in stip- port of his conclusion: that many people are suffering from tooth and gum troubles because they are not eating enough food rich in vitamin C. Of the many factors necessary to build and maintain healthy teeth and gums, this is the oneDhe fonHenkd most frequently lacking. stresses the fact that the quality of food rich in vitamin C needs atten- tion. Instead of saying "Eat an or- ange every day," he recommend a cup of orange juice and half a lemon every day, and in some cases twice a day, in addition to a diet containing from one to two pints of milk, meat, vegetables, from one-fourth to one- half; a head of lettuce a day, one or two eggs, and any desired amount of fruit. His success with this plan is most encouraging. The large amount of orange juice is the measure to which he attributes his chief success, and the evidence indicates that it is the abundant vitamin C in this food which renders it effective. For this reason, it would be well for all of us to be generous in our allowances of citrus fruits, tomatoes, and other fruits and green leaf vegetables which are particularly rich in this vitamin. * * * "I Rise to Propose" One of the most useful and delight- ful faculties to cultivate is that of proposing a toast at a banquet. This is not so difficult as you might think. In my book entitled "Pointers for Punk Orators" (not yet written) I shall include a chapter upon this sub- ject, and I am tempted to slip a lit- tle of it over to you in advance of publication. But, listen! Keep it un- der your hat, please. It doesn't do for everybody to know about these things. If you are called upon to propose the health of John Doe, let us say, who is being banqueted beforemoving a- way from town, all you have to have is (a) a few stock phrases, and (b) plenty of applesauce_ F'instance: "Ladies and gentlemen! We have come together to -night to do honor to one who (here, a little applesauce). You have been gracious seaenough out to as- sign to me this very p of proposing this (some more apple- sauce).

In their seeding programme this years, dairy farmers particularly should not overlook the fact that there is a large supply of Ontario - grown alfalfa seed available and at the lowest prices of many years. large part of the new seeding, there- fore, herefore, can be made economically with alfalfa while a few pounds of alfalfa seed per acre should be included in all seeding mixtures. The dry sum- mer was responsible for failure of much of last year's new seeding' and the outlook for a scarcity of good quality next winter. Seeding a few acres of alfalfa without a nurse crop will help to supply this deficiency. :H:on. Thomas L. Kennedy and Dr. G. I.

WRESTLING GOING STRONG IN BIG UNITED STATES CITIES Wrestling in New York and other large United States cities appears to be enjoying something of the same boom that is observable locally. _It is the opinion of Jack Curley, the not- ed impresario, that, there are cycles of popularity in this sport, and that it rises and falls. For a time there will be a sort of curse upon it that makes it impossible for a sports writ- er to mention it without a heavy sneer. Then, along will come a pop- ular performer like Hackenschmidt, Gotch, Stasiak or Londos, and by the sheer force of his skill,.added to an attractive personality, lift it to a new high level, so that the public will be. come as excited about him as about a heavyweight champion boxer. In the past Winter according to Morris Markey in The New Yorker, the silk hat trade has been brought into Mad- ison Square Garden to watch tho wrestlers. His theory is that the pres- ent revival is due to the collapse of boxing. Nowadays there are few real- ly outstanding prize fighters of any weight. The form reversals have been startling and almost unvarying a- mong the more prominent performers. Despite the advice of those beet qualified to offer it, people who go to boxing matches will insist upon betting on the result. When they lose, and there is some suspicion that the bout was not on the level, they get permanently sore and are likely to renounce this sport and turn to wrestling, upon which, unless they are of unsound mind, they will not bet, but which will give them a lot of fun and excitement. But we are not aware that locally there have been any boxing scandals: Wrestling was revived in Toronto at a time when great crowds attended the box- ing matches. It grew to its present stature ,in the face' of the hardest kind of opposition, and we suppose it is more popular there now than it ever was before. Down in New York Londos is the sensation. He is likely to draw a house of $45,000 of which he will receive between $10,000 and $15,000. His opponent will receive perhaps a quarter of this amount. Discussing wrestling with Curley, Mr. Markey asked whether the match- es were on the level, a question which used to be asked hereabouts in the dear old days when it seemed im- portant. Mir. Curley didnot answer directly but deposed as follows: "I knew as early as January that we were in for a big year, and I knew we could probably •go into the Summer season with matches in the ball parks. But you have to have a big show for a ball park because there are a lot of seats. I should have been cooking up something special for an outdoor entertainment with lots of ballyhoo. Well, you see what happened. I work along with Shikat and Londos, figuring they are the best draw I've got. What hap- pens? Londos beats McMillen, and then McMillen comes along ands knacks off Sprikat for a match with Londos. All right, I put McMillen and Londog together again. Londos wins. Along comes this Sandow Szabo, a good boy with lots of stuff. I begin to figure him for my big show with Londos, What happens? I put Melifillen and Szabo together "By the meadow -trenches blow the Faint sweet cuckoo -flowers, my dear." Alfred Tennyson, he said it, But hers :very wrong, I fear.

MODERN MAIDENS Mildred and Gay were looking forward to their holidays in the mountains. Like the modern. girls they were, they made all inquiries and arrangements by Long Distance. The small cost was more than out- weighed by the satisfaction of im- mediate reply. And in no time all their plans were completed. DIET AND DENTISTRY The effect of diet on teeth is still being investigated actively, and each new experiment seems to indicate the same conclusion; that a good diet is essential for good teeth. Dr. Bunting and his associates at the University of Michigan, who have long believed that a certain type of bacteria was responsible erimented r tooth decay, have recently exp With three large groups of children. In two orphanages, 277 children were given daily a varied ration, inrlud- itig a'quart of milk, green vegetable -4 and fruit. In addition, an antiseptic mouth wash was used. Bacterial ac- , tvity and decay was almost com- pletely arrested in these children. WMle 104 children in a public school, Wfi0 twere given the mouth wash. inti whose home diets were not atianged, showed no improvement in their tdi'idefey to tooth, decay. the in estigators conclude that diet dry far mere effective in prevent- 3taoth ; decay than Were the anti. shntid 'lydr dres> They .-poin't out, 'Merer ciontrollfed ex- deeseary to determine and a9 Pltiy' la h the p - cx; SEP pYOURSELF HEALvTHY `7Ciae Yoe of most people ie much iodeor work and little reales. erase: That's why We sensible, every so often,to give thesystem a gentle, thorough cleansing with Dr. Carter's Little Liver Pills.

Also. the sight of the punishing holds makes an appeal to primitive instincts, and it is to primitive instincts, that both boxing and wrestling appeal. The theory that these holds do not hurt we do pot- find ,beguiling. We cannot believe that a man is not hurt when he is tossed out of a ring and lands on his back on the mingled chairs and spectators. When he seems to be unconscious after such an experience we are gullible enough to believe that he is unconscious. It may be, of course, that it is we who are un- conscious. As Mr. Markey acutely ob- serves: "The mere presence of gloves in a boxing contest does something to that contest; supplies a faint hint that the thing is all in fun. . . The notion of gloves in a fight, rather than the fact of them, makes one think instinctively of the button at the tip of a fencing foil." wins. "I do not think," he says im- pressively, "that even the most care- ful observer can discover a genuine basis for believing that the matches are fixed."
