Lansing Willowdale 11 mo=o=o===o=o==o=o=o=o o=o=o=01 THE ARMISTICE OF 1918 Twelve years ago on November 11 the greatest war of history came to an end through an armistice between the Allied powers on the one hand and Germany on the other: _ This historic document was signed in Marshal Foch’s special train at Rethondes, France, at five o’clock a. m., and provided for the cessation of hostilities six hours later. Acâ€" cordingly the fighting ceased at 11 a. m. THOSE WHO NEVER MAKE MISTAKES A responsible public board was charged with making errors in judgment by critics. ‘ It was charged that board had over a period of years made a number of mistakes. To this, one of the men thus attacked, anSWered: “There are only three types of persons who never make mistakes; the liar, because he never admits them; the fool, because he doesn’t know when he makes them; and thirdly, the oyster, because he never does anything. We do not think we are either fools, liars, or oysters. No one engaged in a large enterprise can foresee everything. Sometimes hind-sight is better than foresight.”â€"Municipal World. While the Armistice of Novmber 11 marked the real ter mination of the war, it was the 4th of a series of rapidly moving events which brought the titanic struggle to enclose. Bulgaria had already surrendered unconditionally at Saloncia on September 29; Turkey had surrendered at Mud- ros on October 31, and Austria-Hungary had surrendered at the headquarters of General Diaz, the Italian commander, on November 3. Left thus alone in the struggle, the defeat of Germany was inevitable. In fact, Germany had appealed to President Wilson for peace on October 6, and the time between that date and the Armistice was taken up with diplomatic correspondence and the working but of the conditions submitted to Germany for acceptance. 7 7 7 7 It used to be that Canadians didn’t like Englishmen who were always telling how they did things “over home.” It seems that right now we have some Canadians over in Eng- land telling the English how “we do things over home.” â€" Meaford Mirror. These conditions left Germany absolutely shorn of all military and naval power which might enable her to take the offensive again. Signing of the treaty of peace follow- ed on June 28, 1919, at Versailles, near Paris. Since that time many additional treaties, pacts and agreements have been entered into by various nations. Continued efforts to insure peace are being made by the world’s leading statesmen, and upon the results of these efâ€" forts depend the most momentous consequences to the huâ€" man race. .- There is more than a sma’ttering of truth in that obser- Vation. But the man or woman who drives a motor car as- sumes a far greater responsibility than merely that of show- ing good breeding. Every motorist, from the time he starts the motor and engages his clutch, is a potential destroyer, a possible murderer. Rightly handled, an automobile is one of the greatest blessings of the age; handled carelessly, it may destroy, maim, and kill, with a wanton cruelty. Sometimes motorists object to all this talk about care- fulness. “The man or woman who drives a car knows all about that.” , Perhaps so. But why don’t they practice it? It is supposed, for example, that anyone who has secured a licen- se to drive knows all about coming to a stop before crossing or turning into a “through street.” A proportion of the drivers in this town obey that rule; but altogether too many of them seem to prefer to take a chance, to save probably six seconds of their time, rather than obey the law and the rules of common courtesy by stopping at the intersection. “DIDN’T THINK” A citizen, himself a motorist, was heard to remark the other day that “you can always tell how much of a gentle- man any man is, by the way he handles his car on the street.” He pointed out that the driVer who menaces the lives and property of others by disregarding stop streets, failing to signal when stopping or making a turn, speeding in traffic and in general disregards the written and unwrit- ten laws of motoring, â€"and thereby the rights of othersâ€"- shows himself to be beyond question a boor, no matter how politely he may conduct himself in a drawing room or how well he carries himself in a dress suit.

The disease cannot be cured once it has passed the early stages. The im- portant thing for us to understand is that, if properly treated in its early stages, before it has had a chance to spread from its original location, canâ€" cer can be cured. There are diseases, like diphtheria rand smallpox, about which we are so well informed that we can deal with them effectively. There are others regarding which our knowledge is less but which is still sufficient to enable us to do a great deal in the way of prevention or cure, as in the case of tuberculosis. Unfortunately, there are, in addition, diseases such as canc- er, about whieh we know comparative- ly little, but yet the little we do know is so important that we would be able greatly to lessen the ravages of this disease, if we made full use of even the limited knowledge we have. A cancer is a malignant tumour. Mal- ignant tumours grow and spread, and they eventually destroy life. The specific cause which results in the formation of a cancer is unknown. The disease is not inherited. Cancer is not contagious. We do know that there are some conditions which act as contributing factors in the (formation of cancer. These should be known to all, so that they may be avoided, in order to es- cape the disease. Chronic irritation seems to play a definite part in cancer. Repeated irritation of the lip, mouth or tongue by a hot or rough pipe-stem may be followed by cancer. The disease is found to occur at the cervix or neck of the uterus when this part is chronâ€" ically irritated as the result of a tear which was not properly repaired at the time of childbirth. Cancer of the mouth follows the chronic irritv ation caused by broken teeth or by i11- fitting dental plates. Such chronic irritation is a predis- posing factor, although cancer does not always follow such irritation. It is the part of wisdom to play safe and to prevent or correct all such causes ‘of chronic irritation. THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL. ONTARIO SCHOOL REPORT CANADIAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION E. B.
