J. • MIDJ1 LETON N Provincial Board of Health, Ontario Dr. Middleton will be glad to answer questions on•Publio Health mat- ters aiters through this column. Address him at Spadin.a mouse, Spading Crescent, Toronto. A' direct plain message to the pub- lic often carries weight , when more elaborate methods ofpublicity fail. Simple statements tersely told, strike file imagination. "Hygiene= canrevent more cruxes than any law," is one of these. Why is this message effective. I3e- ca.use it stimulates thought, and when once the public begin to think serious- ly about any subject; that subject be- comes a topic of interest, the news- papers get hold of it and many avenues of publicity result in conse- quence. Many 'a -man or woman on reading the remark, "Hygiene will prevent more crimes than any law," will be tempted to ask what the word hygiene b means. ' A good opening- for :education results, for "hygiene" • is very compre- hensive and includes both personal and community, well-being and every- thing that promotes this well-being. In some way and by some manner, the have gait to get health messages across to the average, ordinary man or, woman. The reason for thisis plain. *There jai a so many people of this kind: There are a'few highbrows and a few house -breakers and auto- mobile thieves, oncein a while a des- perado who will", not even stop at murder, but the great majoicity"of people we, come in contact with from day to day are just plain ordinary people with an average amount of common sense. Many of these go,:a people "come from Missouri," that is, they have•got to be shown. Some cir- cumstances or experiences in their lives have perhaps given them the im- pression that little of good ,can be done by hygiene.or all that it repre- sents. If you can prove to them that they are wrong—not by preaching long-winded sermons, but by a few facts, they willsoon become your friends and supporters in the good i health crusade. • I ivas talking to a Toronto -alderman a few days ago and he thought people g !were just as healthy before any of these up-todate methods of public 1 health'" propaganda were introduced. 1It seems strangethat all alderman 'should say this with the record of the Toronto Health Department so ! obvious to everyone. Why, the in- , £ant Mortality rate alone has been cut in half in. Toronto during the past ten years, Typhoid fever has been prac- tically abolished, communicable dis- eases have been very much reduced !in numbers, and the milk supply is ipractically all pasteurized.; The gen- eral surroundings have from a health standpoint:. been very much improved andY et one of the aldermen does, not ;think that Much has been done: He [does not know what is going on in health work. Education along health lines is what he needs, and as soon as he becomes acquainted with the work and aims of the health department he will be a far more useful servant of the1people. How can. hygiene prevent more •crimes than any law? Because' it raises the standard of citizenship. It removes as far as possible those in- fluences and circumstances that lead- to a low state of moral conscience; it makes people more nearly normal and hence not so -likely to commit .crimes against society. Nearly every criminal examined has had little or no training from a !hygienic standpoint. Their , upbring ting has been .at fault. They have not. had the advantages of discipline in the !home; they have grown up like weeds and developed bad habits and a „bad ! outlook on life. Hygiene , tends to remove all influ- ences that will prevent a man or .wo- man from leading a normal, healthy life. It is one of the finest words in the • alphabet. Engine Driven bySun's Rays. � The sul's rays are used to generate power in a miniature engine ,which was the subjecit of a rodent demon- stration • in the United States. A parabolic copre:r- mirror focused the rays on a teat tube +of waiter, the heat causing steam, which in turn operated the tiny engine at a high rate of. speed. Bernard Grossman, the -inventor, said that Isla invention could, be used to provide light, heat, and power, or to operate motor trucks. "Coal," he added, "will before very long be considered something whitch merely cutters up thecellar "Every community will have ' its heat-carinilig plant, where the sun ray's. 1 will v 2 ba caught and concentrated.

Res father, an artist, was away e•oldering, and the nvotherhad no money to buy a doll, She would have madie'any sacrifice to gratify y he child's if t e hil desire, a s dell e, but buying doll of the conventional toyshop type was cut of the giies:tion. So, Love put' on its thinking:cnp and solved the problem. The young mother was an ant stu- dent, and had ideas. She picked up bits, of felt, arnd out of them made a new sort of doll. Them die painted its face c and dressed it gaily in fancy clothes, Her little daughter was delighted, and when 'sh:ewent out idi the park to play, her playmates who ''had expensive, fashionably dressed dolls, admired Tiers so much that thleybegged their mothers to buy them one just like it. The result was that orders • for dolls' poured in so fast cm Mrs,- Scavini, she very soon head more than she could fill, At the, close of the war wliien her! painter husband returned to their home in.
