(Too bad, students, we didn't run a- cro$s this information sooner—it might have saved you all that cramming for exams, but we've only just heard about it ourselves.) Actually, the drug is one of the new ones for treatment of con- = vulsive disorders, but the doctors have been opening up some amazing pos- ;.... sibilities with it ever since they dis- '• = covered that the patients on whom -it was used wound op not only healthier • but much' brainier. After a fewshots of the stuff, they say, the 1Q's of 30 boys . and girls treated jumped by about 17 points. The M doctors say that they don't know if the acid would help the intelligence of '6.4 dults, but on the basis of what it has done io children, they assume it might. It is to be hoped that the, scientists don't let this thing get out of hand be.; 1 cause it could create some awful mes- i ses. Can you imagine, for instance, what it would be like to live irr a world = full of obnoxious little stiper-wiseguys? The first casualties in the new world — of geniuses, of course would be the school teachers and truant officers. They'd be out of jobs bedause schools' wouldn't be needed, The doctor_could give your son' a brain booster and he'd be ready to become Prime Minister, but how,. then, is the politician going to make the voters swallow election- eering promises or how is Mr. Man going to convince his glutarnic acid- primed wife that lie was working late at the office and that he's chewing gum just because he' likes it? Some things are better left alone. * * PASSPORT RACXETS - A new passport racket has develop- ed in Montreal and Toronto. since the ARMITAGES Cleaners and Dyers For Reliable i:agi,,ovr Service * * * THREE-POWER CONFERENCE COLLAPSES .

He had great courage, initiative, a capacity for taking risks, and an iron resolution Which brooked no obstacles. had invincible ambition, a vast capacity for work, an incredible memory, an unriv- alled grasp of Parliamentary law, and he was one of the great public speak- ers of his time.
