The Wars of the Roses were fought in the fifteenth century between the Houses of York and Lancaster, and lasted fen: a period of thirty years. The war ceased through the union of the two I-1,ouses by the marriage of Henry VII., of the Lancastrian line, to Eliza- beth, heiress of York, and eldest daughter of Edward 117. Now the Rouse of Lam:aster wore as its badge the red rose (The Rose Gule); whilst that of York. wore the white or (Rose Argent). There was after the mar- riage a tradition that then growing in the garden of a certain monastery in Wiltshire was on•e particular rose- bush, which, during the troubles 01 the land, had, to the amazement of the be- holders, borne at once roses red and roses white, About the time of the marriage of Henry and Elizabeth, all its flowers blossomed forth with petals of red and white mixed in stripes, which was hailed as an omen of future peace and harmony. The Tudors., who were descendants of Henry .and. Elizabeth, adopted the rose as their flower. Slrnblem of Eneland. Besides being the emblem of Eng- land, the rose ie the badge of the Rich- mond*: "13.ence the rose in ehe mouth of one of the foxes whic11 oupport the shield in the public -houee called the Holland Arms, Kensington."

Roses In Stone, Why We Keep,to,the Right "Keep to the right" Is milyersal,ly the rule In our country, and it is stricte„ ly observed by tho delvers of 5 ehicle:8; .Partly because there tire trafile police to enforce it, and partly becaue,e it ie the easier and the 'fairer way to con- form to custom, 'The Amite -lean rule applies to road vehicles, stree,t reilwaY, eteamrail- ways, and pedestrians, and it works so smoothly that Canadians who have not traveled eau haye 3.10 idea of the eon- feslon existing in certain foreign, coun- tries, where trains run on the left, but where there is no eettled rule other wise. Ie Italy, for example, some towns have a "Keep to the Right" rule, claela ing with a contrary rube for the rural disteicts, and' every driver must deter- mine for ,himself the moment at which he ceases to be in the country and hag reached the city, In France the railway trains run on the left, but road vehicles take the right.

The fact that such confusion exists in the 0111 World, which has been con- gested. sodong, an,d h•enc,e has required more social system, seenis especially curious when one considers the Sup- posed origin of our own rule, "Keep to the right." It is said that the rule dates back to the old and unpleasant days when neople- were swords. If you keep to the right y-ou could watch the gentle- man who happen.ed to be passing you, and if leo put his hand to Ills sword you had a chance of producing your own. Disagreeable people' 'carried a dagger on ,the right side, and if others at- tempted to pass them on the wrong side, it was inferred that trouble was th.e object.

Because of the menace of forest fires In the Province of Quebec,. the Hon. Mr. Mercier, Minis.ter of Lands and Forests, has imposed further dras- tic restrietion.s• with regard to the use of fire in wooded section's of his pro- , Vince. The most Decent decision of the Minister is to forbid the granting of any more permits to settlers or farm- ers to burn slash, or tree refuse, until farther n•atice. The regulation will be eeforeed until all danger from forest flies is over. Up to the present, set- tlers were able to secure permits from fire rangers to burn slash, but now, even this permit system has been tem- porarily. suspended. It is also interesting to nate th.at, for some time past, the Quebec Provincial Government has enforced. a regulatioii which requires all visitors to forest or mountain districts to get a permit from a local fee ranger for the purpose,o,f entering the forest. Even with a per- mit, the strangers are not alloWed td use fire under certain conditions.. No Charge is made for such a permit and it ean usually be obtained without mu,cla difficulty. The main effect of the permit,' -of couree, is educative, as it is accom- panied , by strong warning- regarding the firedanger and its possession un- doubtedly creates a sense of responsi- bility with the oard holder, Anyone can see results; it takes a wise man to discern causes.

Many people, do not understand the term "preventive 'Medicine." "Prev'entiye Medicine," is a science and art, a system of teaelein.g and of practising rules of health preventing disease. This. branch of medicine, •so far as it relates to the in•dividual, is concerned -with the normal healthy body and how to keep it s,o;the care and ueage 11 should receive, the pro- tection of tbe vital organs from abuse or overstrain; how to fortify the body against dis.eas;es and to .cultivate its, mental and physical efficiency, thus pro -longing the- ap.ah. of 'life, Preventive medicin-e as regards the commu•nity pertains' to the removal, contre•I, or lessening of the causes of disease and physical decay, and. to re- moval of conditions fa.voring them. Its aim is therefore preventive rather than curative. It regards the com- munity as a group of individuals wh.ose health has, to be safeguarded; the in- is a matter of mystery to the average terests of one are the interests of all, man on the s,treet.
