lA Column Prepared Especially for Women
But Not Forbidden to Men
THE CRADLE WAY
'God comes to men in flames of fire:
In rushing winds of fierce desire:
In light, all -blunting and intense;
In thunderings,of Omnipotence. •
But, to a woanan's heart, He comes
Not with the beat and blare of drtuns;
Nor with the shriek of trumpets—
nay-
He
rumpets—nay_He enters. by—The Cradle Way.
Through woman Adam was unman-
ned,
Yet by her God Almighty planned;
Because He knew
This thing was true,
Her heart was greater than her hand.
'Twas woman's hands that did pre-
pare
The King of Glory's earthly wear:
A tremulous . woman, who uprose
And wrapped Him round with swad-
dling clothes.
It was a woman's arms that crept
About God's Darling as He slept.
And here lies woman's right to fame:
To her the , first sweet Christmas
came!
—Pay Inchfawn.
We are coining so near again to
the blessed Christmas time, when we
celebrate anew the birthday of the
world's redeemer. and is it not a
beautiful and an arresting reflection
that the Great All -Father so .digni-
fied womanhood that He allowed His
son to be born of woman!
Women have done many a foolish
and many an unworthy thing but it
should give renewed hope for the race
when we think that God considered
a woman worthy to bring His son
into the world, to care for and train
Him and rear Him to manhood.- This
knowledge should have the effect of
making us more humble, more ready
to be taught and led of God; more
determined' than ever to live worth-
ily. '
The Son of Man came into the
world as a man, forever hallowing
our humanity. But he was born of a
woman and surely that forever hal-
lows and makes sacred- wornanhool
and Motherhood.

.Special Christmas Programs .Planned by Canadian
Broadcasting Corporation --Citizens May
Personally Send Messages To Friends
Or Relatives In Far North
A cross-sectional picture of Canadian life on Christmas Day, not on-
'ly of the urban but of the rural sections as well, will form the basis of a
special hour-long program to be presented over the national network of
the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation December 25. The program, to
'be known as "Canada Broadcasts Christmas," will be heard from 4.00 to
•'6.00 p.m. EST.
Distinctly Canadian in Flavour this year, in fact, will be brought to
Interpretation of many phases of
activity- on this greatest day of the
gear and informal visits to • private
homes, will blend with the singing
of community songs by massed audi-
• ences, the ringing of bells and the
laughter and gaiety of children. The
program will be distinctly Canadian
in flavour and different in principle
from anything hitherto presented ov-
er the national system.
Private citizens from Halifax to
Vancouver will participate in the
radio celebration as the program
- spans the continent linking cities,
towns, and northern outposts..An ae-
• centuation of the feeling of interna-
tional goodwill between Canada and
the United States will be ejected into
the broadcast which, it is expected,
will be heard in the United States
through facilities of broadcasting
companies in that country. The en-
tire program will be based on the idea
that if Canadians can laugh, sing,
and play together on Christmas Day,
they can, work together in harmony
every day in the year.
Of,a• high Standard
Great expenditure of effort on the
part of program officials to bring all
CBC's Christmas broadcasting activi-
'ties up to a high standard of enter-
tainment, is indicated not only in
"Canada Broadcasts Christmas" but
• also in .programs to be heard at oth-
er times during the day and `on
'Christmas Eve. On December 25 the

those isolated at any point beyond
the line of ordinary communication
may send greetings in their own voi-
ces. These messages will be ampli-
fication of the weekly . "Northern
Messenger" service and will be broad-
cast by all Corporation long and
short-wave stations, The program

The Brunswick • Singers Omar

Smooth and, rhythmic in their pees -
enation of madrigals and popular
tunes, the singers have been given a
group assignment on Bruce E. Hol-
der's "Fanfare," heard each Monday
over Canadian Broadcasting Corpora-

guest room of a house in which Sir
FIugh, was a visitor. Each morning
he complained of the horrible "ap-
parition" on. the wall. "If they can
ming,"' he remarked, "I'd certainly
like to hear them."
An audition was arranged. Sir
Hugh selected a group of part -songs
from their repertoire. They ran
through a dozen numbers and noth-
ing was said. In the ensuing days
nothing was said, either. Finally, as
Sir Ilugh boarded a train for Mon-
treal en route to Glasgow, he handed
a friend an envelope. "Give this," he
said, "to the Brunswick Singers." It
says what I think tef them."
The tribute was:
"It was with great interest that I
heard the 'Brunswick Singers,' and I
congratulate, the province on having
sucha fine combination. They blend
well, `they chord well, they shape
well, and their work generally is dis-
tinguished by high artistic qualities.
These congratulations apart, they
were of interest to me in that they
embody the best traditions of the
chamber music singers of old; a tra-
dition which has conte down to us
from the great Elizabethan times. I
wish for them the future they de-
serve, and that is a bright one. New
Brunswick would do well to encour-
age thein, for they set a standard --
an
an old country standard, let me say --
which should be a beacon to all aspic.

CONTROLLING
TUBERCULOSIS
Edited by Rebekah.
VALUE OF LIVER
Liver, which at one time was re-
garded indifferently, has, as a result
of recent discoveries; risen rapidly in
popularity as well as in price. These
discoveries' established the value of
liver in the treatment of pernicious
anaemia and other diseases. An ex-
tract of liver is now successfully us-
ed in treating the sick, and the occas-
ional use of liver ' in some form or
other is recommended in the case of
persons in normal health. In addi-
tion to the many ways in which it
can be prepared, liver combines well
with many other meats, and a little
liver added to hash is especially at-
tractive. Here are a few recipes which
you may like:
Braised ,Calf's Liver
Wipe liver, and skewer into shape
if necessary. Draw small lardoon,
that is, strips of fat pork or bacon—
through the liver in parallel rows,
leaving each lardoon extended a half
inch above the surface. Place liver
in a casserole or Dutch oven, sur-
round with remnants of lardoon.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper and
dredge with flour. Surround with
one-third cup each of carrots, onions,
and celery cut in small cubes. Add
one-half teaspoonful pepper -corns, 6
cloves, one spray parsley, a bit of
bay leaf, and two cups of hot brown
stock or water. Cover closely and
cook two hours in a slow oven, Re-
move cover the last half hour of cook-
ing, so that the liver may brown rich-
ly. Remove liver to serving platter
and set aside in a warm place. Strain
liquor in casserole and use for mak-
ing a brown sauce. Pour sauce a-
round liver and serve. Braised liver
may be served cold, thinly sliced.
- Liver Loaf
Cover sliced liver with boiling wa-
ter and let stand for a few minutes.
Wipe dry, remove any fibrous parts,
and run through food chopper. To
each cup of chopped liver add one
cup bread crumbs, one egg, one tea-
spoonful salt, one-quarter teaspoon-
ful celery salt, and one-half teaspoon-
ful pepper. Mix well, and bake one
hour in greased mould set in pan of
water. Serve either hot or cold.
And after a dinner of braized liver
what could be nicer than an apple
dessert? In fact, there arefew
first courses that cannot be followed
successfully by an apple dessert of
some sort, so many and varied are
the methods of preparing: them. The
following you'll find will please most
men, roly-poly pudding being the fav-
orite of a great many, one notable
example being Mr. Stanley Baldwin.
His wife will not serve it to hien of-
ten, as she. says it is too fattening.
But an occasional one will not do too
much damage, and it will put Hubby
in such a good humour.
Everyone (mows about diseases that
at ono limo caused great loss of life and
that have been brought under control
in the last thirty or forty years as a result
of modern public health methods. Ty-
phoid fever le one illustration. Twenty

deaths out of every 100,000 living persons;

to have a death rate of more than one

rates for typhoid for the last year were

Yellow •fever is another plague of a
generation or two ago when wholecities
were quarantined because of it.
Diphtheria, the killer of children a
few years ago, is to -clay becoming a rare
disease. Many communities have not.
hail a death or even a case of diphtheria'
in several years, thanks to :modern
methods of immunization against this
disease.
Smallpox, that scourge and terror of
our forefathers, is now seldom hoard of.
And so it goes, these dread diseases which
once decimated the population, are now
practically eliminated.
Tuberculosis is still far from being
conquered, bat it is eaeouraging to note
that moro progress has been made in
conquering.. this enemy during the first
thirty-five yearn of this century, than in
all the centuries that wont before. The
death rate in Ontario in 1000, shortly
after the National Sanitarium Assocla-
tion was organized, was estimated at
160 per 100,000. To -day it is 87.
Itis a splendid showing and with the
goal in sight we hopefully enter the lest
lap of the race, but as everyone knows,
t the last lap calla for the greatest effort
andif we are to succeed en gaining' the
complete' mastery over this plague as
has been gained over others, we must

TUBERCULOSIS
Two general types — the Human
and the Bovine. Bovine commonest
in children but 80% of total tubercu-
losis is of human type.
• The human form of tuberculosis is
by far the commoner. Like the bo-
vine form it is usually acquired in
childhood and from close association
with an open case of the disease in
the family or from someone closely
associated with the child. Eighty
percent of all tuberculosis is of this
type.
Bovine tuberculosis invariably in-
fects the child through milk from the
cow with a tuberculosis udder. Four-
fifths of the tuberculosis appearing
in little children is of this type. It
affects the bones and joints, the
glands of the neck or deals 'destruc-
tion as meningitis, the so-called brain
fever.
It would be a simple matter . to
control bovine tuberculosis. The me-
thod is pasteurisation of all the
milk used by children. In cities
where all the milk and cream used is
pasteurised, there is no bovine tub-
erculosis, and the incidence of such
affections as undulant fever, dip-
theria, scarlet fever and the devas-
tating summer complaint of babies is
unheard af. Pasteurisation of milk
means. simply the heating of the milk
to 145 degrees F. holding at this
temperature for 30 minutes and Tep-
idly cooling it and keeping at a low
temperature until used.
Human tuberculosis is not so rea-
dy of control It involves the "sep-
aration of the sick from the well."
The tuberculous person the source
of the infection -must be sought out
and sent to a sanatorium or to some
place where he will learn to take pro-
per care of himself until he is safe
for other people to associate with.
Although important progress has
been made in the control of tuber-
culosis in the last 25 years, much re -
Mains to be done. All niillt supplies
must be brought under pasteurise-
tion. Children in school' and under
the school age should be sifted to din
cover those having a tuberculosis in-
fection. In all such cases the source
of infection should be traced and pre-
vented from doing further harm.
Questions concerning health, ad-
dressed to the Canadian Medical As-
sociation, 184 College St., Toronto,
will be answered personally by letter.
