"THE PARENTS'
PERSONAL SERVICE"
A Unique Service Rendered by the
Hospital for Sick Children,
Toronto
Three years ago, the Hospital for
Sick Children, Toronto—the pioneer
hospital in Canada for children only
tentatively started 4 service to be
known as "The Parents' Personal
Service.",.
This maims that the Hospital set
aside a graduate nurse, with her
stenographer, for the exclusive use
of the parents, in order that they
might have s direct and intimate
source of information re their chn-
'dren, not only as to the ailment for
which they were admitted, but the
little individual condition.. It is
comforting to talk with, or write
to,- someone who has time to see
and chat with their little one. and
$ho can tell them how he looks, and
ailswer such questions as: Ie lie able
to be up, or sit up in bed? Does he
miss us and fret? Does he play with
the other children? and so on, dozens
et anxious inquiries, and meaning
much to the home folk. If they live
in the City they may see and talk to
her any hour.
To -day. the Hospital's officials re-
gard this Service with pride, as it
reveals the spirit of the Institution,
supplying, as It does, the human
touch that seta it apart from a mere
repair factory and shows it a8 a
house, not only of healing, but of
sympathy and understanding towards
the parents.
As the Hospital takes in children
from every corner of Ontario, not-
withstanding that some of the larger
cities now have a hospital of their
own, this has increased the Hospital's
correspondence ifamensely.
A look atethe file for this Service,
however, shows how worth -while the
experiment has proved. There are
thousands of letters, intensely human
documents, front parents. A play-
wright would consider it a rich field.
It contains ready-made blocks of
assorted emotions for the making of
dramas—love, pity, longing, anxiety,
fear, faith, hope, exaltation and grati-
tude—all crammed between Its
covers.
The nurse in charge of this Service
1s naturally immensely popular with
the children. They look to her for
hews from home. To the parents,
also,, she is a very real person, though
they may never have seen her, and
some write to her after their children
are hone. Neither do the children
forget her, as the concluding sentence,
In a letter from a child, home many
Months, 'shows: "I have just finish-
ed my homework, and I am very
tired and 1 lust. Wrote this letter to
see what you are doing. Goodnight
and God bless you." This last, no
doubt, was prompted by a grateful
mother.
Then there is the letter of the little
boy, successfully treated for Infantile
Paralysis, who thought longingly of
home while in the Hospital, and of
bis Hospital friends when discharged.
"Duet a line to let you know how 1
am. My leg 18 411 better now, 1 can

The big man, who had ;just been in

stood staring blankly at hlrn for some

very familiar; you must have a double.

.,4 Scotsman paid a visit to a friend
in New York, but stayed far longer
than was expected. Time dragged on,
and still the visitor made no attempt
to leave. At length the friend dropped
a gentle hint:
Friend—"Don't you think that your
wife and 'children would like to see
you again?"
�,. Scotsman—"Thanks very much. It
is most awfully kiud of you. I'll send
for them at once."
A friend of this eolyum endeavors
to describe the difference between
clerks and managers as follows:
"A clerk is a man who knows a
great deal about a very little, and
who goes on knowing more and more
about less and less, until finally he
knows everything about practically
nothing."
"A. manager is a man who knows
very little about a great deal and who
goes on knowing less and less about
more and more until finally he knows
nothing about practically everything,"
There are more men than women in
the world. But at that, the women
make twice as much noise.
Sandy McNab had found lodgings
with a landlady of a very mean dis-
position. For one thing she never
overfed her boarder's. At the dinner
table McNab was banded a very small

the Scotsman said:
Scotsman—"You've made a mistake,
haven't you, Mrs. Brown?"
Mrs. Brown—"Not that I know of.
Why?"
Scotsman—"13ecause my name Is

A man evidently from the country
was in town recently and saw an ar-

is used quite a lot by lady violinists."

a pause): "No, I'll take two. We got

A Forward Cork
Into the Past
(By Walter W. Cunningham, in The
Christian Science Monitor.)
Poets and authors have sung of The
Past. Generally in a mood of renis
niescence. Not always with a spirit of
appreciation. Yet without appreciation
for what has been done in the past,
what basis is there for hope in the
future? Samuel Smiles once said: "All
nations have been made what they
are by the thinking and working of
many generations of men." The vast
empire of Britain, upon whichthe
sun never sets, grew out of the strug-
gles of a thousand years. The Ameri-
can nation, as someone has truly re-
marked, sprang from the sons of mar-
tyrs. The wheat fields, tossed by the
winds of the prairies, would never
have yielded their bountiful crops had
not the early settlers, unsparing of
themselves, cleared the land and pre-
pared the soil.
There is a time when the world
may pause advantageously and look
back, not merely to survey the scene
in retrospect, but to render thanks for
the great inheritance. That is the op-
portunity o4 an anniversary. It is the
time when a debt to the past may be -
paid in gratitude. For no •matter how
recent. and rapid the advance in any
field of endeavor, it could not have
been accomplished without the untir-
ing labors of past generations,
Honor to the Pioneers,
The combine, performing the work
of dozens of men in the fields, would
never have been possible if the mech-
anical genius of an earlier day had
not, in the sweat of furnaces, devel-
oped new types of descendant of the
stick that scratched tbe earth. It is
well, then, not to look with contempt
upon the rude implements of an age
gone by. Thomas Gray, in a moment
of inspiration, crystallized this
thought in his beautiful "Elegy Writ•
ten in a Country Churchyard,"
through a line too little known even
by his most ardent admirers:
"Let not ambition mock their
useful toil."
To the "rude forefathers" may be
attributed the foundation of the gran-
aries of Europe, of Australia, of the
western bemisphere. The bulging
warehouses of grain are no mere tri-
umph of the people of today. The
multimotored steamships, in which
the harvest yields find their way
across the seven seas, are not alone
the products of the yards of the pres-
ent time. Their construction actually
started far back in history, sometimes
so long ago as tobe bidden by the
mists of obscurity.
Where would radio have been with-
out the pioneers in wireless teleg-

Order Rests on Past.
Geology in the past quarter century
has made amazing progress, It pro-
mises still more astounding results
from the expedition to the South Pole
of Commander Byrd. But is there no
credit due to the early geologists for
their studies of the glacial period?
To the indefatigable toilers who shed
light on the earth's strata? To Bugb
Miller, the author of the "Old Red
Sandstone"? To Robert Dick, the
baker'02 Thurso, who trudged 30 miles
at the end of a day's work to obtain
specimens of stones and flowers and
to correct imperfections in existing
maps?
Perhaps if it had not been for the
pioneers, the world would still be fac-
ing chaos rather than order in in-
dustry and art. It is within the mem-
ory of many reading this article that
men trudged to the hand loom at
dawn and never left it till dark. A
dreary task, ill paid. Even long after
the industrial revolution swept the
machine into power the weaver could
be found bent over his Ioom. But the
-nand-loom served its purpose. And
were it not for the hand loom there
might have been no power loom.
The comforts upon which humanity
seems to thrive are the fruits of many
generations, One generation builds up-
on another's labors, carrying them on
still further. The automobile body
found its design and appointments
first in the now discarded four -wheeled
carriage. The 400 -mile -an -flour air-
plane had its origin in the 40 -mile -an -
hour flying machine. The steamship
crossing the ocean in four days, not
so long ago proudly recorded the fact
that it crossed in 14. Does the credit
entirely rest with the designer of the
new floating palace?
Not even the greatest inventor of
all times would claim for his multi-
farious discoveries the sole credit for
his amazing success. Edison ever al-
lowed the great inheritance he re-
ceived from his predecessors. It was
Dickens who said:
"It is a poor heart
rejoices."
And therefore we pay tribute to the
builders of the past, the true nobility
of civilization.

stooped so badly and had round
shoulders, She was wearing spec-

1Vlien I asked her if she took
plenty of exercise and played plenty
of games, the mother told me that
she did not enjoy playing with the
other girls, but that she was very
clever, was top of her form, and
spent most of her spare time read-
ing and working. "When she comes
home in the evening she likes to sit,
at the dining room table and read."
1 said I would like to look round
in the evening and see how she
worked because, anyhow, I had to
go out and would be paseiug near
their 'house.
So after dinner ! took a look 11) on
them, and there was the girl sit-
ting up et her lessons at the dining
room table, the table was a low one
and the chair much too high—all
right for eating, but all wrong for
work. The result was her neck and
back .were all bent forward,

Experience of the past three years'
administration of the Maple Sugar In-
dustry Act and Regulations has
shown that there is a tendency on the
part of farmers and other owners of
sugar bushes to delay to the very last
moment in applying for Iicense or re-
newal of the license to permit maple
sugar products being exported or ship-
ped to another province. The final
date for renewal of license is Dec. 31,
after which date licenses not renewed
are liable t9 cancellation and further
shipments outside the province or use
of license number by those affected
is contrary to the provisions of the
Maple Sugar Industry Act and Regu-
lations,
There is not the slightest advantage
gained by delay. The time to apply
for license or renewal is now. Some-
times it has happened that a sugar
bush owner, seizing an opportunity
for trade, has suddenly decided to sell
his syrup and sugar outside the prov-
ince, has been forced either to violate
the Maple Sugar Industry Act or delay
shipment, or to pass up the deal. To
any farmer who may have the oppor-
tunity of selling his maple products
to another province the Fruit Commis-
sioner, Department of Agriculture, Ot-
tawa, will be pleased to give full de
tails and instructions on how to obtain
a license.
The law is quite clear: Every sugar
bush or sugar orchard from which
maple products are exported or ship-
ped to another province must be 11.
censed and the owner, lessee or oper-
ator must apply to the Fruit Commis•
sioner for a license or for a renewal.
The applicant must give his name and
address, also the lot number, conces-
sion, township and county in which
the sugar bush is located, together
with the total number of maple trees
in the stand and the number of trees
tapped.
Cans or bottles containing maple
syrup for retail trade must be clearly
marked or tagged to show the com-
mon name of the product, the net
weight, the name and address of the
manufacturer or packer or of the
sugar orchard and 'when licensing is
required, the license number, Further
all labels, tags, caps, stickers, etc.,
showing the required marks must be
submitted to the Fruit Commissioner
in duplicate for approval in writing
before being used. Failure to do so
constitutes a violation of the Maple
Sugar g ar Industry Act. Manufacturing
or packing plants shipping maple pro-
ducts from one province to another
are also required to operate under
license issued by the Minister of
Agriculture.
