First in the list of home injuries are falls. Thirteen thousand pt•ople were killed by falls in 1928 (altnoet as many as were killed by automo- biles). There were falls from lad (Mrs, chairs, boxes, porehes, pla- t? forms, stairs, roofs, trees and poles; from slippingin bathtubs, on icy walla:, greasy and *tape- ficiann•; cs; bigh- ly polished Allrfaeos, ben and refuse; from tripping over furni- ture, lumber, refuse and from losing imlance.

Mistaking. Olson for medicine, poi. sons in food, blood poisoning from negleeted wounds are next. Cuts and bruises with tools, slivers and nails in refuse, kitchen utensils and toys, stand high in home injuries; aecidents from mechanical equip- ment, electria washers and ironers, automobiles and toys; accidents from electricity by grounding through the body are fuetors. Rickety ladders, unstable duties and weak boxes are treacherous. An unrepaired stairway is a potential hazard11(IZOI'll an unto stair rug and a littered stairway are 'menaces.

Mothers should not be too busy to pick up fallen pins or needles and to put out of reach thimbles, coins and beans.

Isra'd all hut ex- terminated the Midianite:4 (Num. 8 1 ). Now, Jethro, as the priest of Mid- ian, was the official representative of a false, idolatrous religion.

We must increase our watehlatheees and carefulness. We must keep a rigid account of ourselves in home safety; we should be the "safety managers" of our homes. Children quickly adopt our methode; they imi- tate our every act. The only age limit that can be placed on the teaching of safety is the time when the child first begins to imitate. The infant's first world is his mouth and as soon as he can use his bands, everything that his lit - tie hands can grasp goes into his mouth. It may be a poison, or some substance that will cause choking, A child 2 years old may not know the meaning of the word inatclor the danger of ,striking one, but if he sees father light a match by striking it on the table or window sill, he will try to imitate father and will etaet a flame the first chance he gets.

One of the greatest foundations upon which the Canadian national spirit rests seas laid by the Canadian Pacific Railway eves the conviction uttered by J. D. Cameron, of Glas- gow, in an teddress before an audi- ence at Pembroke recently. "Not merely did this railroad act," he said, "as a bond between all the provinces of the Confederation, but it was, by its coneeptinn and final construction, a greater force than anything else for the unification of the scattered provinces."
