VILLAGE OF BLYTH
Oct. 31, 1927—Oct, 31, 1929.
A summary of Medical Officer's re-
port reveals the .following•;—
Population-641.
Deaths -12.
Births -6.
• Contagious Diseases—Measles 46
Pneumonia— 11; Tuberculosis— 5;
Whooping Cough -2.
Several have been inoculated against
diptheria and scarlet fever and some
vaccinated but there still remains a
large number of children quite un-
protected from these dreadful dis-
eases, An epidemic of smallpox
would certainly reap a harvest in the
village.
The general sanitation of the vill-
age is excellent but that of the school
only fair. Severy recommendations
have been made to improve matters.
The milk supply, as regards sani-
tation and cleanliness, is fair, with
one vendor keeping 001-y non -tuber-
cular cows, In his stables, haiyev'er,
marked improvements must* be, and
are con tem plated.
THE GRAVE OF .LAZARUS
stoiad. beside 0 Silent tomb
Where serrcile and despair
Had lately cast its shade of -gloom
And laid a brother there.
Some friends and neighbors gather-
ed near :
To say their last adieu,
And drop a sympathetic tear,
"Twas all that they could do.
I saw "The Man of Sorrows" eoine
And weep with those who wept,
He came to cheer a lonely home
„Arid wake the one who slept.
T saw two sisters standing near,
Close by the Master's side,
And heard them Say "Hadst thoubeen
here
Our brother liad not died:"
Then with a breath that peace im-
parts,
He breathed a glad surprise,
And whispered to those burdened
• hearts
"Thy brother shall arise."
I heard Himto the Father pray
And in His spirit groan,
And turning to the mourners say,
"Take ye away the stone?'
Then in that waiting anxious crowd
heard Him call a name,
' Lazarus come forth" He cried aloud,
And forth the dead man came:
Tho.wound about in winding sheet
The ma.n who death had slain
Was standing FLOW upon his feet
A living man again.
Altho ip grave clothes he was boand
Death was a conquered foe;
Then Jesus said to those ardund
"Loose him and let hiin go."
And when in sin my soul was dead
And buried by the foe,
The Saviour called ine forth and said
• "Loose him and let him go." •

Experiments the results of which
are likely to revolntionize tile cettem
industry of the pld country, and the
whole world are now being made in
England with a view to needing a suit-
able substituth 'for cotton.
The sttbJeet has inade eeneiderable
progress in Germany, and•It may be
said at once that a substitute (whe-
tiler suitable or not) has already been
found. , •
The sinall body of men who are
Pursuing the question in England are
optitnistie, it is understood, of future
developments. '
The raw material for this substi-
tute is a cheap type of fibre from
flax and linseed. When it is rememe
bered that many Millions` of ponnds
are spent yearly on the importation
of cotton' from the United States,
while flax and linseed canbe obtain-
ed within the Empire, the subject
assumes an added significance.
"It boils down to this; Cen you
spin short fibre flax for use in • the
present machinery?" said a leading
figure in the textile world,
"At present flax has got to be long
fibre.. The job is to get short fibre
flax to spin like cotton:. I believe It
Is quite possible to treat the rougher
varieties of fax to give a Short staple
material with some of the properties
of cotton.
"The'able of linseed is now burnt
as useless, so it can be imagined what
a wonderful raw material for Lanca-
shire this will make if it can be tivat-
ed successfully. :And these materials
can •be obtained from India and
Canada.
"The finished material will i;e con-
siderably stronger than cotton, and
In ray opinion is bound to nvelti-
tiouize the :ndustry. Always provid-
ing, of course, that short libi.‘• ma-
terial cau be adapted to the r1itti„.1-

In a short time the policeman as we
know hira tccdry—"the man in blue"
—may hav,-, iven place to a gen-
darme with a black cape and a peak-
ed hat, says an Old Country paper.
Ir is understood that the police auth-
orities- are coatemplating a drastic
change in the organization of the -po-
lice forces of the country, which will
include the abolition of the present
uzzifOrrn an'i p. lowering of the stand-
ard of height:.
The unifori of the cOnstable of to-
day allows little alteration from that
of 0 hundred' years ago, and it is
realized that it is unsuitable for mod -
era conditions.
The Metropolitan Police will prob-
ably be the first to -wear the ne,w
uniforms, for which designs will be
invited; and provincial cities and
towns will, it is expected, alter the
style of their police uniferms and
equipment. It iS possible that in fu-
ture each town and borough will have
a distinctive uniform for its police.
The .eurnhersome helmets aeorn, at
present ;will be replaced by Another
form of headgear that will be neat
and dignified,
A lowering of the, standard of
height will be a reform long overdue.
Many men well fitted for this import-
ant profession are debarred from en-
tering the force on account of their
lack • of inches. Ex -Superintendent
Forest, who captured the fugitive fin-
ancier, Jabez Balfour, after a thrill-
ing race on horseback against a train
in the Argentine, was under the limit
of height, but WAS given special per-
mission to enter the force.
GLASS YOU CAN'T 11.11E0%R.
Can Be Adapted to One Hundred
Different Uses. .
Inventors have been trying for cen-
turies to produce unbreakable glass,
:and it is now clewed that a Liver- I
pool professor and his son, working 1
in collaboration with an Austrian
chemist, have discovered the Secret
that has batted so many others. c
The new glass is not only unbreak- a
able, it admits the health -giving
ultra -violet rays, and can he adapted
to one hundred different uses.
According to history, unbreakable
glass was ;discovered before ---in the
days .of the Romans. The inventor
showed a glass cup to the Emperor
Tiberius. He threw this cap on the
floor, denting It In places, and then
knocked it into shape again with a
hammer.
"Does anyone else know of this se-
cret," asked Tibe.rius. And when the ,
inventor replied, "No," the emperor a
ordered him to be put to death. He a
was • afraid the unbreakable glass
might cause a slump in the value of
gold and silver. •
