The list of commodities for which

paperboard is available has been re-
duced from 56 to 13 items following
revisions in Wartime Prices and
Trade Board regulations.' The relax-
ations of quotas and prohibitions on
the use of paperboard for containers
are the result of increased shipments
of this commodity and a reduction in
some districts in the demand for
shipping cases for war goods: Unre-
stricted use of paperboard con-
tainers is now permitted in packing
soups, dairy .and cereal products, in-
cluding bakery products. Commodi-

When you read—as you probably
did during the past few months—
that more than 300,000 people in Canada
have syphilis, what was your reaction? Did
you say, "That's too bad; something should
be done about it",and then turn to the
comic page? Chances are you did.
But if that article had told you that
Tommy Jones, :the lad who used to mow
your lawn after school, had syphilis—how
would you have felt about it? Or that the
young couple who built that cute house in
the next block, had just lost a baby through
syphilis ... would that have made you stop
and think?
Or, if you suddenly discovered that your

never read articles like that, of course, for
these are the personal tragedies that people
bear in silence.
So, when you pick up the paper sometime
and read, ` . . . there were 5,000 new
VENEREAL DISEASE cases reported in this

are not cold figures. They represent 5,000

Yes, VENEREAL DISEASE is a serious
problem. It's a problem for parents; for
taxpayers; for young people on the thres-

VENEREAL DISEASE need never strike if
we all do our part. If we know the facts,, If

A RAINY DAY
Old scenes I'd forgotten long ago
Come back from the hazy past;
I thought them lost 'heath the
weight of. years,
But thiey've, found me again at
last.
The faces of friends who played with
me
Life's game in youth's glad hey-
day,
Come trooping to meet me when I'm
alone—
Alone en arainy day.
But those scenes and faces no longer
hold •
Their old -trine glamour the same—
They have lost the spell of the by-
gone hours.
Is the day or am I to blame?
The world and its strife has, I know,
stepped in
And stolen OUT glad hearts away—
Oh, it's hard to rekindle the joys
of youth
When alone on a rainy day.
