Jack Baker is home. He was dis-
charged from the .air force just before
Christmas and he spent the holidays
with his folks on the farm. The Baker
place is on the sideroad. We've
known the Bakers off and on for years
but never neighbored very much with
them. Jack worked at Lazy Meadows
for a couple of month one year and
since them, lie often used to drop in
for a Sunday afternoon chat. He's a
nice boy and after he went overseas
we sent him a few letters and an oc-
casional package. We used to get very
interesting letters in reply.
I saw him in town just before New
Years and suggested that he drop in
for a chat. He looked kind of tired
and drawn. and Mrs. Phil thought he
seemed just a wee bit nervous. Last
Sunday afternoon Mrs. Phil was work-
ing around the kitchen and I was doz-
ing on the couch when we heard a
knock on the back door. Sure enough
it was young Baker.
He didn't say very much and we
didn't press him to talk. It seemed
to me as if he wanted some place to
sort of hide. He stayed for supper
and afterwards he came down and
helped me with the chores. I could
tell he wanted to talk so after putting
down the hay for the morning I sat
down on a half bag of chop in the
passageway and he jumped up on the 1 oat bin.
He didn't lose any time at all but
said right off, "Do you think I've
changed Phil?" I couldn't see a great
deal of change in the lad. He had
lost his boyish: giggling and he looked
older and he had more sense in what
he said, but he. seemed to be pretty
much the same. Then he came right
back and said, "Phil, since I'veocome
home you and the wife have been the
only two people who treated me as if
I were just the same as when I went

serious disease contracted in one-
municipality through the neglect of
that municipality might have grave
consequences in another centre on the
other side of the continent. For in-
stance, syphilis could be contracted
one place by an individual who later
would change his residence and then,•
because of the disease, would become
a charge on the municipality where he
had established his new home.
"Municipalities should stand behind
all efforts to deal with health and
prevention of disease on a national
scale," Dr. Bates said.
Percy Ward of Montreal, chairman
of the Quebec Division executive, said
many people were looking to the
League, a voluntary organization, for
leadership in the health education
field. The League was doing a needed
job of. its own volition.
The meeting -teas told that observ-
ance of Canada's second annual
national "Social Hygiene Day" would
be held during "Health Week", on
Wednesday, February '7. The "Day"
itself is sponsored by the League
co-operation -with the federal and pro-
vincial departments of health.
It is set aside to re-focus attention
on Canada's No. 1 public health prob-
lem—venereal diseases—and actually-
marks the opening of another intensive
campaign against these insidious dis-
eases.

away,"
That sort of stumped me, so he
went right ahead and explained. The
night he got off the train they met him
with the sleigh and the whole family
was in it. He wanted to crawl back
in the straw in the box under the
buffalo robe. The family insisted that
he sit up on the seat with the heated
stones at his feet.
When -they got home they wouldn't
let him go to the barn to help put
the team away. They had the good
spring mattress off the spare bed on
his bed. They had roast chicken the
next day- and his plate was loaded with
white meat, What was more they had
a white tablecloth on, when he knew
perfectly well that they always ate off
a table covered with oilcloth except
when company was present.
Jack was worried because they were
treating him like company. The rest
of the folks tiptoed. around in the
morning so as to not wake him up,
when he wanted to get back into his
overalls and go out and help with the
chores. There was .a whole string of
company and Jack slipped away last
Sunday just to miss an uncle who
would keep plying him with questions
about his War experience,
There wasn't much I could tell
Jack. He didn't want to object be-
cause his folks would be hurt and yet
he wanted more than anything else
to be treated just like one of the
family . .. and not like a Visitor.

National thinking is needed where
the health of the people is concerned,
Dr. Gordon Bates told a recent meet-
ing of officials of Health League of
Canada branches.
"Parochial thinking is wrong where
disease is concerned, because disease
can be carried from coast to coast,"
said Dr. Bates who is general director
of the League. He explained that a
