This is not so at night. Then the house is still and the air beâ€" l comes overheated and stagnant. Bed- room windows should always be open,’ ed sufficiently to keep the air ofi’the room cool and in circulatifgl/ How far the window needs to be pened to accomplish this dependi's upon how cold it is, and ms; the direction of the MIL-mesh\air costs nothing; ’t'liere is no reason why all should not have their share of it. are more comfortable that way, we keep the bedroom windows open. As a result, we secure an abundance of fresh air. During the cold weather, most of our time is spent indoors and we may forget that in order to main- tain our health, it is necessary that 'we have plenty of fresh air. One reason for the increase in the knumber of cases of communicable dis- eases, particularly of pneumonia, dur- ing the Winter months, is because the body is starved of fresh air. Fresh ’air is air that is cool, in motion and not too dry or too moist. The best air is the air outside. Night air is just as good as day air. In the daytime, the advantage in being outdoors is because of the sunshine that is there. Indoors, we obtain the best air by opening the windows. This allows the cooler air in and caus- es it to circulate. ‘ Frightened by rats when she Went .to the cellar to kill herself, Miss Elea- lnor Cogley of Buffalo screamed and ‘fled, also gave up her suicide plans. Canada may have a national direct- or of electricity if a proposal made in the Dominion parliament be adopted. Ontario’s manufactured products now reach a total of more than a billi- ‘on and a half dollars annually, indust- rial development having been greatly assisted by the use of water-power. The railroad journey between Vien- na and Venice takes 18 hours, but can be made by airplance over the moun- tains in three hours.

Questions concerning Health, ad- dressed to the Canadian Medical As- sociation. 184 College Street, Toronto, will be answered. Questions as to THE OPEN-FACED SNEEZER .diagnosis and) treatment will not be We read almost daily in the press answered. General News and Views CANADIAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION FRESH AIR IN WINTER A BO YT “'OMEN HEALTH SERVICE OF THE the sad results of carelessness of ped- ‘estrians and motorists, but we seldom, if ever, read of the sad results of the carelessness of “open-faced” sneezers. i Disease gern‘lls pass out in the secre- tions of the nose and mouth. A sneeze casts a {germ-laden spray for rten feet. If the sneezer cover his nose and mouth with a handkerchief, the danger is practically ended. If the desire to n'eeze is too sudden to hllow of usih :the handkerchief, the head can at least be lowered and the spray direteted to the floor, not into {othernleople’s faces. I Im’ addition to those actually ill, phany persons carry disease germs in their nose and throat. People with colds continue to go about their busi- ness. For these reasons, the sneeze \may be the means of spreading dis- ease, and, for these reasons also, an ‘end should be put to the “open-faced” .sneezer. Nevertheless, the “open-faced” sneezer is more dangerous than the careless motorist. A person is guilty of criminal negligence who is careless and lacks consideration for others; who, wfihout any thought, sneezes, showering particles of material from his nose and throat all around him. A man ho strikes another is guilty of assault. Public opinion, as ex- pressed in the law, does not allow of such assault , and requires that the person who cqmmits one be punished. A far more dc ngerous assault is com~ mitted by the careless sneezer. Pubâ€" lie opinion 5 lould recognize this and stop it. 3 I 2.

The following ten ways are most effective for making yourself unpopu- lar. Try them, if you want to lose your friends. Dissatisfaction guaran- teed. Don’t try them if you want to keep friends: 1. Don’t let any remarks pass un- challenged. Always start an argu- ment. Say “I don’t agree with you at all.” 3. Minimize other peopel’s efforts “Anybody could do that.” 6. Remind people of promises which you know they made impulsive- ly and cannot keep “I thought you were going toâ€"” 7. “As I was sayingâ€"” Always insist on dragging in your favorite to- pic, especially if you know people are interested in something else. 9. “I used to think so a while back” is a satisfactory wet-blanket, or other people’s enthusiasms. It makes them feel antiquated and you, quite superior. 8. “Let me show you how.” Insist on showing people a better way. 10. Pick on people’s religion or patriotic sentiment with the assertion “That is nothing but prejudice.” All these recipes for unpopularity work-try all or ‘one. THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL. ONT. HOW TO BE DISLIKED Appreciates The Liberal Barrister, Solicitor etc MacLeod, Alberta J.W. MCDONALD, K.C Yours very truly Mrs. William D. Ross, Wife of the lieutenant-governor of Ontario, the first lady of the province, at the offici- al opening of the legislative assembly. Her arrival under the escort of the premier, the Right Hon. G. Howard Ferguson, caused a stir in the House. The photograph is a recent one taken in her presentation costume at Ottawa NEVER Miss Bramley recently arrived in Hollywood to visit relatives and was persuaded by Harry Brand, general manager of the Keaton studios, to ac- cept a part in Buster’s second United Artists picture dealing with the funny side of higher education. The little comedienne has been featured on the musical stage in London. A new screen “find” has her first role in Buster Keaton’s United Artists bomedy, “College” which comes to the Bedford theatre next week. She is Flora Bramley, well known young English comedienne. The Keaton company filmed many scenes on college campuses and athle- tic fields in and near Los Angeles. l{Buster took the entire cast and tech- nical staff to Balboa, California, for the boat racing scenes, which were “shot” in the presence of thousands of spectators. Among the players in the comedy are Ann Cornawll, who has the femin- ine lead: Grant Withers, Harold Good- win, Snitz Edwards, Florence Turner, veteran Vitag'raph star; James Mack, Buddy Mason and others. James W. Horne directed the comedy and Carl Harbaugh and Bryan Foy headed Keaton’s “gag” staff. The college feature was produced by Joseph M. Schenck.

BEDFORD THEATRE IWINTER WONDERS OF NIAGARA [ The wonders of Niagara Falls which have for years attracted sightseers from all parts of the world, are even more striking when the frosts of winter have played their part in beautifying this mag- nificent spectacle. The Falls are coated with ice in peculiar forma- tions and are, perhaps, even more attractive than during the summer months when the water runs freely over their brink. So great has been the interest in the winter appearance of Niagara TOO LATE TO start a Save Yourself at our expense Don’t try to do the heavy parts of the fam- ily wash. Let us help you.
