Training For Citizenship Increasingly insistent is the de- mand that the •sc'hools of this Domin- ion teach citizenship -that they equip the •ehilcl to do the full duty of a.gooe citizen. It is not forgotten that the schools have for generatltons done ex- cellent work; but the experience of the last four .years has brovght 'rite e eal- iz bion that a change in method and in subject-matter—a shifting .of em- phases—is urgently required. A young man may be an expert in arithmetic, in spelling, in waiting, grammar, geo- graphy, and every other .subject on the curriculum, and may, none the lees, display qualities of brutality, in- justice, wasteflltpess, and treason— may, reas an. --may, indeed, be a bolshevik. An alter- ed type of training, it new view of relative values, must come,. A know/el edge of the fundamentals en which rests the:structure of democracy must be a part of all instructipn worthy of the name. Education may make or mar a nation it hae doneso in Eur- ope and elsewhere. What are the fundamentals? Hon -i esty is one. Industry is another, and. there are many more. Frugality is, an :important One, ,and one that is be- ing overlooked fn this net;,country.! Canada was built on bhni1t, among other things—the pioneers were specialists in thrift. Thrift is not hoarding; it is not miseelinese; it consorts not with the pessimist: '"Thrift is intelligent cure of money and resources; ,conservation for the future, wise end thoughtful spending. The thrifty man is an op - tiniest, for he has stored up power; And thrift must be taught in the schools. This will not add to the teachers' burdens, for evttry suhjeet� of etntdy'can be •so taught that it helps to inculcate the practice of thrift. A tThhrift Club in tho classroom works wonders in - the discipline of the} school; it gives the pupils something worth while to talk about and some- thing worth while to think about. putted for a common aim, they learnt esprit de corps. They conte to know the value of money and the principles of business; they axe imbibing the necessary preparation for citizenship. For the attractive investment of small savings, War -Savings Stamps afford an excellent medium. This plan has been highly successful in the .schools of Great Britain, of the United States, and of Canada. Thrift taught in the schools encour- ages industry because children wish to earn so that they may save. And,. more than ever in its history, this old world needs to go to work. Produc- tion must be increased. Produce, save, invest, must become the universal slogan. Cold Water vs. the Doctor. Few people realize the value to the general health of the habit of drink- ing plenty of pure fresh treater. It is said that to make up for the liquid waste of the body, about three pints should + be drank every day. - Often one wall get up in the morn- ing evith a dull headache; the digestive syo ono is in some way out of order. Men a glass or two of` water will in a little while relieve the trouble. Again in elle morning the stomach is full of mucus which makes ret unfit foe the immediate reception of food. This mucus would only mingle with the food and hinder digestion. A glass or two of water, drank en getting np, will wash this mucus .out of the stom- ach and leave it ready for breakfast. And, by washing out the system daily, it will surely prevent headache and derangement of the liver and kidneys. It is said that the sipping of hot water has.amost beneficial effect on the :heart action and that it regulates the flow of the,ble. But especially in OUT hurrlecl Canadian life, early in the morning very. few people have time' to' sleep and sip at a cup of hot water. Busy people will surely never adopt this Habit; there is too much'pressing to be'done.

Some Simple. Ways In Cookery. Heat :hardens the euhetance called aibumen that is contained in such foods a§ eggs, milk, and nett. That is why eggs harden when exposed to high temperature, and why milk forms a seem when bailee; else it is why dishes in which these foods have.been should not be plunged into a pan of hot dirsh water, for hot water cooks the renrains el these foods on; and makes them very hard to wash off. Any dish having 'contained milk or egg should first be soaked, and even n!•nsed, in cold water, end then later scalded. Heat has the opposite effect on sugar, ast d'iesolves it. Any dish having contained a sugary mixture should he cleansed 'with hot water from the very start, Heat in combination with moisture has what might be called' an explosive effect upon starch, for at causes the tiny cells that compose any starchy food to swell. That is why n table-, •slpoonful of cornsbareh, for example, will thicken a liquid pudding or a gravy, because with heat it expands. in volume, Also that is why any standby food, such es potatoes or rice, for instance, most be thoroughly ex- posed to a high temperature 40 that bhe cellulose structure of the •starch may be thoroughly broken, and thus made digestible. - 'Some acids and •alkalies combined with • moisture form a gas that ex- pands with heat. That is why baking powder; er the equivalent in soda and cream of tartar, expands and ,raises a cake or bread mixture, w'hors placed in the oven or •other warm place. Moisture and heat immediately affect the acid and alkali winch these leav- ening agents contain.; Egg is a lightening agent when beaten up and •stirred into any recipe that is to be heated, for the air beaten into the egg expands with heat and helps raise the mixture. That is evhy popovers rise so •satisfactorily when made with eggs. M'olassee contain considerable acid, althogh it is not commonly bhought of as a soul ingredient on sac:aunt of its sweet taste. That lie why soda is'used as a raising agent in molasses,ginger- bread. The soda, beingalkali, makes the proper conbenation with the acid molasses to snake tee equivalent, for example, of baking powder, or soda and cream of tartar. Stabilizing "Snails. The famous French airman; Georges Dombrival, has utilized the well known instinct which scientists have long ob. served !Repossessed by snails. For some unkflown reason, a snail when placed on an inclined plane cralvls toward the highest part, When M. Dombrival was infotnled of this he placed oh the upper plane of his Maurice -Farman machine eighty eight pounds of snails, two-tlitrds at which were the large, slow snails of Bourgogne, beloved by epicures, the remainder a smaller and more agile variety. After rising to about 1;500 feet he was able to take his hands off the controls for the rest of his two hours' flight. The snails moved in a mass toward the upper part and re- established the equilibrium whenever the machine dipped, either laterally or lottgitucltnally, thus keeping the air- plttne in perfect line of fllgbt.

With unbomdod joy, those who have missed their season of shooting during the war years, opened the great gun cases eef country homes and took to the moors in thousands, relieved of any prick of conscience which of Iate years has prevented sportsmen from indulging in what seemed to be a trival enjoyment while conflicts raged in the theatres of war. No bird attracts the English sports- man as does the grouse. It Is Bri- tain's own bird, a native of Scotland and all .her islands, of Wales and of the peat bogs of Ireland and the moors of England. When the season for shooting opened this year, the trains for the North out of London were jammed with parties, while the lug, gage vans bristled with guns and gun cases. It was the Peace season more welcome than ever before in all the history of hunting seasons. In several instances officers wine have been flying during the war, tool( their places to Scottish modes and ae ter a day In the coverts, flew back to London to have their birds prepared. for the evening meal. One British aeroplane firm inaugu• ratted an air express service to get the grouse to Delon to be placed upon restaurant tables the same day they were killed. Lord Derby, England's ambassador to France, pining in Paris for the taste of grouse from his moors, had them brought to hint by air post and dining that evening he could al. most picture himself back In Highland country happy after a day afield re- galed with the succulent birds. How Did Humans Learn to Talk? Talking and the words used canto into being through the desire of men to communicate with each other. Be. fore words became known and used man talked to those about him by the use of signs, gestures, and other movements of the body. Even to -day when Hien meet who cannot talk the came language they will be seen try ing to come to an understanding by the use of signs and gestures and generally with fair results. The need of more Signs and gestures to express a constantly increasing number of ob- jects and thoughts led to the inteeduc- tion of sounds or combination of sounds made with the vocal cords to accompany certain signs and gestures. In this way lean eventually developed a very considerable faculty for ex- pressing himself. Sign! by sign, ges- ture by gesture and sound by sound, language was slowly developed. A elan would be trying to explain some- thing to another by sign or gesture hncl to make it more clear would make a sound or combination of sounds to put more expression into his efforts. Finally the other man would under- stand what wee meant and he would tell sonisone else, using the sante signs, gestures and sounds. Later on it would develop that to express thus any certain thought, act or the name of a thing, all of the people in the com- munity would melte this sante com- bination of sounds, signs and gestures to express the same thing, Finally the' gestures and signs would be dropped and it was found that people under- stood perfectly what was meant when only trio sound or combination of sounds wasn rodnced. That made a weed, All the other words were made in the same way, one et a time, until we had enough words to express all the grdinary things and the combina- tion of words became tt language, The children learned the language by hear- ing their parents talk it, and that is how man learned to talk, War Scarred Fish.

We watched her as she stirred up the ingredients, and we praised Inc as we partook of it at the meal.

And once I heard .her mutter: 'To think that ever again I should hear music and laughter— here!' Dr. Gleason, did Mr. Denby ever love somebody once, and do I look like her?"

With unbomdod joy, those who have missed their season of shooting during the war years, opened the great gun cases eef country homes and took to the moors in thousands, relieved of any prick of conscience which of Iate years has prevented sportsmen from indulging in what seemed to be a trival enjoyment while conflicts raged in the theatres of war. No bird attracts the English sports- man as does the grouse. It Is Bri- tain's own bird, a native of Scotland and all .her islands, of Wales and of the peat bogs of Ireland and the moors of England. When the season for shooting opened this year, the trains for the North out of London were jammed with parties, while the lug, gage vans bristled with guns and gun cases. It was the Peace season more welcome than ever before in all the history of hunting seasons. In several instances officers wine have been flying during the war, tool( their places to Scottish modes and ae ter a day In the coverts, flew back to London to have their birds prepared. for the evening meal. One British aeroplane firm inaugu• ratted an air express service to get the grouse to Delon to be placed upon restaurant tables the same day they were killed. Lord Derby, England's ambassador to France, pining in Paris for the taste of grouse from his moors, had them brought to hint by air post and dining that evening he could al. most picture himself back In Highland country happy after a day afield re- galed with the succulent birds. How Did Humans Learn to Talk? Talking and the words used canto into being through the desire of men to communicate with each other. Be. fore words became known and used man talked to those about him by the use of signs, gestures, and other movements of the body. Even to -day when Hien meet who cannot talk the came language they will be seen try ing to come to an understanding by the use of signs and gestures and generally with fair results. The need of more Signs and gestures to express a constantly increasing number of ob- jects and thoughts led to the inteeduc- tion of sounds or combination of sounds made with the vocal cords to accompany certain signs and gestures. In this way lean eventually developed a very considerable faculty for ex- pressing himself. Sign! by sign, ges- ture by gesture and sound by sound, language was slowly developed. A elan would be trying to explain some- thing to another by sign or gesture hncl to make it more clear would make a sound or combination of sounds to put more expression into his efforts. Finally the other man would under- stand what wee meant and he would tell sonisone else, using the sante signs, gestures and sounds. Later on it would develop that to express thus any certain thought, act or the name of a thing, all of the people in the com- munity would melte this sante com- bination of sounds, signs and gestures to express the same thing, Finally the' gestures and signs would be dropped and it was found that people under- stood perfectly what was meant when only trio sound or combination of sounds wasn rodnced. That made a weed, All the other words were made in the same way, one et a time, until we had enough words to express all the grdinary things and the combina- tion of words became tt language, The children learned the language by hear- ing their parents talk it, and that is how man learned to talk, War Scarred Fish.
