( 131/2 Million U. S. Visitors In 1940 Prospects For A Greater Tourist Trade For This Year Are Reported Tourist traffic from the United States to Canada continues to flow freely across the interna- tional boundary, according to the Immigration Branch of the De- partment of Mines and Resources, which reports that 13,598,777 • visitors entered Canada from the United. States during 1940. Al- though Canada is at war, and her industries have been re -organized on a war basis, no restrictions have been placed on the entry of bona fide tourists from friendly or neutral •countries. MORE ENQUIRIES RECEIVED Out At Elbows? Do you find the elbows of your sweaters get pushed out of shape quickly? If so, try sew- ing a four -inch wide strip of silk inside as a lining. Cut the silk on the straight so that there is no "give' and tack it to the in- side of the sleeve just at the el- bow, using long stitches on the wrong side and very thin ones on the right, This band takes the atrain and prevents that ugly, pushed -out look at the elbow. The same idea can be used for dres- ses of thin wool liable to stretch, Modern Etiquette BY ROBERTA LEE Prospects for a much greater tourist trade in 1941 were envis- aged by D. Leo Dolan, chief of the Dominion Travel Bureau, in an address last month before the 111h annual dinner of the Traf- fic Club of Montreal. The speaker noted that since the beginning of . the present year, more than 22,000 inquiries for travel information had been received by the bureau at Ot- tawa. This was an increase of 31 per cent over the highest number ever received for a cor- responding period. Population.

The old sailor had retired froln the sea. Each morning a grubby youngster knocked at his door, went in and came out again. At - ter this had gone on for Seine weeks the curiosity of the villa- gers was aroused. "Tell me," said •one to the youngster, "why do you visit that old sailor every morning?" "Well, sir, he gives me a dime if I say to him, 'The captain wants you immediately.'" "And whet does he say to that?" "He says, 'Tell the captain to go to blazes.'"

The journal of the American Medical Associa- tion expresses doubt as to the' a ouracy of the reports, but Statee it is possible for a =all growth to take place after somatic death due to continuation of the molecular life processes until available oxy- gen has been used. Thele is also a deceiving appearance of growth a -hair on a dead. person due to the shrinking of the Skin., -which. ex - noses portions of the • hair shaft previously concealed. —0— APPLES PUT TO SLEEP Apples tram last year's crop, kept asleep by a heNS process so that they remain as fresh as when picked, are coming onthe :market One Japanese bragged to an- other that he made a fan last 20 years by opening only a fourth section, and using this for five years, then the next section, and so on.

This figure shows an increase of 277,- 410 over the Federal census count made in this province .in. 1931, when 2,874,255 persons were registered as being in Que- bec. The report stated that there were 1,493 municipalities within the province. Within this num- ber are 26 cities and 108 towns, the remainder being rural muni- cipalities and parishes. 1.

Toronto Doctor Advises That lore Attention to Nutrition is Essential to War Effort There is too much buying of vitamin concentrates and not enough attention paid to build- ing up an adequate diet of na- tural foods,Dr. D. le Thomson, professor obiochemistry 1110- Gill 'University, last week told the Canadian Association of Me- dical Students and Internes. Dr. Thomson's comments oe the national diet followed an ad- dress by Dr. E. W. McHenry, as- sociate professor of physiologi- cal hygiene of the University of Toroll$0. Dr. McHenry spoke of the value of dietary surveys and referred particularly to studies which had been made of 100 low- income families in Toronto. In these families, the men, he stated, were the best fed, the children next and the mothers worst. Only three of the 100 families received adequate am- ounts of food. The lack of "pro - B vitarains, was most evident. "If you get up earlier in the morning than your neighbor," said the town philosopher, "and work harder and scheme more and stick to your job more closely and stay up later planning how to make more money than your neighbour and burn the midnight oil planning how to get ahead of him while he is snoozing, not only will you leave more money when you die than he will, but you'll leave it a darn sight sooner." There was a young girl in the choir Whose voice went up hoir and heir Till one Sunday night It went out of sight And they found it day in the spoir. At the salve time the carbon diox- ide was raised to five per cent, this gas coining from the fruit. This atmosphere has been Main- tained. steadily ever since, The tWo pee cent, oxygen is just enougbto keep the apples alive. The earbon. dioxide and low oxygen puts them into deep sleep, like an anaesthetic. The effect is to literally slovr dowil their rate of living, or of aging and dying, so.that they last for many Months without detect- able Charge, even in. flavor. If you use an electeic vacuum - cleaner, empty the dust -bag fre- quently and regularly. Failure to do this is bad for the mechanism. Funds for the rebuilding of London after the disastrous fire of 1666 were obtained from a tax on coal and wheat landed at the Port of Loncicn. next MALNUTRITION WIDEgPREAD Both speakers emphasized that In time of war it was imperative, if Canada is to put forth her best war effort, to pay more atten- tion to nutrition. They emphas- ized that this attention must be based on knowledge, not popular fancies. While there may be little actual hunger in Canada, there was malnutrition, Dr. Thomson pointed out, particular- ly as lack of the essential rainer- als and vitamins did not create hunger in the sense that lack of calories did. Round up Ogden's for a Real Smoke Walking Galleries Tattoo experts say that more customers are thronging their saloons than ever before, and that their clients do not come mainly from the armed forces. To -day Service men do not want mato and ladders, and hearts with "Mabel" in the middle, inscribed on their chests, but British civili- \ ans are being tattooed with iden- tification merles. Many tattooists do nothing but remove former de- signs from the skins of their cus- tomers, for taste changes with the passing of the years. Some time ago in the U.S. tattooists had a tremendous rush of busi- ness, for the I.Tnited States Navy barred entry into the service to any man with the nude figure of a woman inscribed on his akin. Thousands rushed to have clothes added to these designs. Take a tip from old timers who have been rolling their own for twenty years or more.Their brand is Ogden's and they wouldn't think of smoking anything else. They like it because it has a taste you can't match—a taste which comes front its distinctive blend of choice, ripe tobaccos. Try it. You'll find it's not just another tobacco—it's Ogden's.
