IMPORTANT RESEARCH IS UN- DERTAI{EN FOR CANA- DIAN CHILDREN Washington, May 10, (Speeial to The News-Record)—Dr. Clarence 31. I:Iineks, Medical Director of the Canadian National Committee for National. Hygiene, at the first inter- national ,congress on world hygiene which is being held hs Washington, and at which there aro one thousand scientists from 56 countries, told of a new departure in the field of re- search. In discussing at an inter- national round table the progress of the science in the Dominion Dr. IIineks brought before the delegates the fact that in Toronto, a group of 700 children ranging in age from birth to 16 years, has been placed under -observation for a period of 20 years with a view of cleterming the factors which make for mental deviation or for the approach to the normal. ' Dr, Hinclfs alae said that this was the only study of its kind in the world. Most other studies, he said, began with developed cases of devia- tion and involved a searching back- ward. Some few individual cases have been observed, as in the pre- sent research, but in the Canadian experiment a large number are in- volved. He thought that in, trine it would be possible to'extend'to schooi children the sande service from this` science as they now receive from mediciine.

Two extra seats . project from the back of the car, built high enough to permit the occupants to see forward over the hood. These- will be occu- pied by slueacial guards with. machine guns. The running boards are un- usually long, for guards to stand on, each with a pistol in hand. 406,989.

A committee of members frond North and Victoria street churches had the matter well in hand; and their plans were carried out to the utmost satisfaction of all present.

On the evening -of the first day the ladies were taken on a drive around town and the surrounding commun- ity many never having been in this part of the country greatly enjoyed seeing Huron's county town.

COUNTY NEWS GORRIE: A fire of undetermined origin, totally destroyed the home of William Harrison at the north side of Gerrie Saturday morning. At the time. of the fire Mrs. Harrison was away from home, her husband also being at his work. The family, boy and girl, were rescued from the burn- ing home by John Ilueston, a neigh- bor who gave the alarm. Nene of the contents was saved. The house was owned by William Brenner, and was insured. Mr. Harrison had no insurance on his contents. GODERICH: Tinder the auspices of the Goderich Lions Club a most successful -Minstrel Show was staged in the Model Theatre on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings -with a matinee for the children on Saturday afternoon. Charles Meakins, a resi- dent of Goderich, upon. his return from London, England, where he had been playing at the historic Drury Lane Theatre, was aprpoached re- garding the benefit for the crippled children of the County of Huron and was so impressed by the possibilities of the good such a charity could do that he immediately took the respon- sibility for the production and with his .twenty-five years experience he was able to stage a complete sue - cess. The number of crippled -chil- dren in this ;county so. impressed Mr. Meakins that he wrote his brother, who is Dean of Medicine at McGill University and head of the famed Royal Victoria Hospital in Montreal, for information regarding the medi- cal research of the crippled child. In the information received it is clearly shown that with proper Medi- cal care anal early 'attention sixty per cent. of. the cases will respond to treatment and the condition be rec- tified. The Lions Club is to be com- mended for taking up this fine work. Mrs. Newlywed: "Will you try some of my angel cake?" Mr. Newlywed: "No, thank. you." a, Mrs., Newlywed (pou;ting) . "Why, are you afraid it isn't good enough?" Mr, Newlywed: "No, I'm afraid I'm not good enough. niy love.." .Mrs. Newlywed: (eagerly) "Good enough for what, dear?" gr. Newlywed: "Good enough to become an ,angel." CANADA EXIIIBITS AT BIG DUIB- Li'N PAIR. • Canada had a distinctive display at the four day Royal Dublin Society Spring 'Show' which was held for four days at Dublin, Ireland. •Canada's display prepaf'ed by the Canadian government exhibition commission; included among other things proces- sed fruits and foods, rubber footwear, agricultural tools, building > products and electric : stoves ' and washing Machines - ' News and Information for Busy Farmers (Furnished by The Department of Agriculture,) An Enormous Loss A. prominent authority has esti- mated that twenty-six million dollars is the 'Price ,paid by farmers and poultry raisers for loss through dis- eases in poultry flocks in Canada inj' the past year. Most of this loss is caused by internal parasites and much of this is preventable? A good deal of it can be avoided by keeping the young chicks away from the ad- ult birds and on absolutely clean soiI,. Campaign Against Weeds The provincial authorities are leav- ing no stone unturned in their cam- paign against weeds. Many of the highways have the usual prolific crops along the sides of the road. Some of the farms throughout the country have crops of weeds which will soon be ripening and spreading their seeds to the four winds. Delin- quents in this respect will be given an opportunity to explain the reason for their contempt of the law as soon the weed inspector makes his rounds. Still Time to plant There is still plenty of time to get in corn or roots and both crops are essential tor feeding all kinds of live stack. taking the place of ,green grass in the ration long after the season for grass is over. •Corn is planted any time after danger • of frost is passed. Mangels . should be put in fairly early so that the seed -will have the early moisture. Tur- nips are not planted before the se- cond week in June and may go in un til about July 10. If planted too ear- ly they are liable to become tough and make less palatable • feed than those which make most of their growth in ` early fall, , loges. Professor Caesar, who' is in charge of theenforcement of the act replied emphatically as :follows: Growers of ,small plots of corn in villages, towns and cities must re- member that the act applies to them just as much as to the farmers, and Low Producer a Liability The dairyman, and for that nat- ter the owner of any class of live stock, has enough to contend with without putting up with a bunch of law producers. The burden of the low producer is. felt most in time of feed scarcity and low price ,of dairy products. She is a liability, but yet it is rather difficult for the dairy- man to make up his mind to send her to the block and take his loss. This question of keeping records of milk, cost of feed, and getting rid of poor cows has been discussed tine, with- out number, and yet many low pro- ducers continue to oocupy a stall and consume as much feed as its stable• mate which the records prove has re• turned ti substantial profit over the cost of feed and labor. Of General Application A townsman in Western Ontario recently wrote to the Ontario Agri- cultural College asking whether the Provincial Corn Borer Act had any application in cities, towns and vil- that .sometimes their corn is, more heavily infested than the coin on farms. All corn stalks on these plots, and all' coarse weeds alongside them must be gathered and burned as soon -as they are dry and the ground then spaded or plowed." maftiose To the People of Clinton and District.
