Tied back when they return from a
Vacation. To achieve this esthertieal-
,
ly rather questionable result, people
will expose thetaselves for hours to
the sun, practically without any mese
(teal control.
Yet this fashion, as we said, has
tits dangers, and although accidents
through sun bathing are comparative-
ly rare, stliis is entirely due to the
pigment produced by the radiations

The picture changes, however, when
'people expose the entire surface of

exercise r.bleir action upon ,a large
surfece,. din the level of Which the
blood circolates in the cutaneous leap -
Marie& The danger lies right there.
Although it does not seem- pennies
sible to Assimilate the effects of the
ultra -violet rays upon the blood in
the test -'tube with their effects upon
the blood flowing through a live ves-
sel, we Must .always bear in mind
that if pigment does form under the
influence of actinic rays, it must -serve
-eamie purpose. In accordance with
the principles of heliotherapy, we
must consider it as a means of de-
fence of the organism against the
,harmlful effects of the rays of t110
sun, and especially as a protection
against attestations that may occur in
the blood when the rays, are absorbed
by the superficial 'layers of the epi-
dermis. In other words—the pigment
is the ,sunshade of the skin against
the ultra -violet rays.

The latter is a substance lackieg
the reanahloable properties of haesno-
glebin, which, as is known, absorbs
the oxygen from the air and together
with it forms that unstable combina-
tion called oxyheemeglohin On the
level of the lung etirface, the haemio-
globin which has 'peeviously eliminat-
ed the oxygen for the purpose a the
aeration of the blood (Hapernatosis),
again combines with it.
Methaernogiobin, which is the is-
omer of haemoglobin with's* the lat-
ter's specific propeeties, cannot elians
inate its gas for the purposes of the
haematosis of the blood. The serious
ineonveniences which would follo'w if
most •O the haemoglobin of an or-
ganism were to turn into methaerno-

Fortunately for us, the pigmenta-
tion resulting from the effecte of ul-

or rather the haemoglobin contained

blbod in the upper layers of the skin.
To the ;Ultra -violet' trays are then
added the infrared rays which heat
the ,skin and extend! the diameter of
the Susienficial capillaries.
However, ,before drawing our final
conclusions it will ibe necessary to
conduct systematic research on indi-
viduals subjected: to a prolonged ac-
tion of the SIM on the entire sealer*
of the body, and especially on the
conitents of haseatoglobin and !meth-
eemoglobin in their blood.
Although the pigment of the skin
protects the organism, it doe s not
from instantly. Before it reaches a
'etafficient degree of development, the
haemoglobin may begin to turn into
that other undesirable substance.

Earl -Reunion
On 'Saturday afternoon Harbor
Park was the scene of the Earl re-
u.nion. About 150 members of the
elan were peasant from Gorrie, Mit-
• Ethel, Wroxeter and other
centres and rural- seetiees. The re-
union is an 'annual event inaugurated
;last...yew- (when the first gathening
was held At Bayfield. Many people
arrived in the forenoon and enjoyed
a lunch . in the pavilion, and when
the whole .nurnbeir had assembled in
th,e a-fternoon softball and races were
enjsyed. Everyone took part in the
rap es. Earl Bowes of Ethel acted as
master 'ceremonies. At the conclu-
sion of the contests, during which
time many of the party made a trip
to the beach, supper wars served by
the ladies before the elan 'members
bid adieus for another year.—Gode-

• Firemen Had Run
)The town tar cart gave the eiti-
zens another scare on Monday foee-
noose Some men were tarring the
roadway in front sof Mise Grace
Clark's home, a short distance west
of Knox 'Peetelsylterian 'Church, when
the apparatus in some manner took
fire. *A -fire a..1a.rin was sent in and
the fire brigade responded, • subduing
the flames with a line of chemicals.
Great volinnes of smoke led, many to
believe that a real conflagration was
in the making. This is the third time
that the firemen have been called to
save the old contraption. — Mitchell

Crops Promising in Logan
IMir. John Herbert, ori e of the good
farmers of Logan, says -that the splen-
did irains of the past week have .been
beneficial to -the growing'crops. Al-
thounh there is but very little fall
wheat this summer, Mrr. Herbert will
have some 12 load and the sample
is of number one quality and the
craps of -oats and .barley will be
much greater than last year. Pate -
tees and mangles never looked bet-
ter than 'at 'the present time and the
prospects are good for bumper crops.
Hay is light, although there are farm-
ers in Logan who had fields efn hay
from which the yield is heavy.Mit-
chell Advocate.
Death of Mrs. Knox

her son in Hullett on Sunday of Mrs.
