TELEPHONE 9. mm“ THURSDAY, JUNE 25th, 1936 E BEAUTY AMPLY REWARDS EFFORTS Canada has been richly endowed with great natural beauty and, except where man in cities, towns and vill- ages has turned that loveliness into semblance of garbage dumps, the land is a vista of endless charm. Just as a man is oft-times judged by his clothes, so is a community appraised by its environment, and that environment is at once the responsibility of every member of the commun- ity, individually and collectively. The home after all, is the starting point for the most effective re-beautification of the spots despoiled of their natural grace, and, where each home is beautified, the fulfillment of a Comprehen- siVe scheme of beautification on civic or community lines is made a comparatively easy matter. This has been amply proved by the success of the More Beautiful Canada campaign sponsored by the Canâ€" adian Horticultural Council a few years ago. The idea of beautifying the home surroundings had, in many places, only to be suggested to be acted upon, and non Canada possesses many more beautiful towns, villages and homes, some lowly, but all lovely in their lowliness. The use of flowers and plants on the porches and walls of a home, in the gardens, and in adjacent spaces is not a matter of mere show. It goes deeper than that. In reality it strikes at the roots of civilization. Beauty represents the supremacy of the higher over the lower, of form over matter. So much so, that if the world were one beauti~ ful garden and every inhabitant interested in it. there would be no more war. Every human being is influenced to a greater extent by his surroundings than is generally realized. Where there is harmony and the harmony of flowers symbolizes the blending of the higher impulsesâ€" there can be no discord. The story is the oldest one known. Adam was ap- pointed to dress the Garden of Eden and to keep it (Gen. 11:15.) He did not do so and was sent out of the garden to till the ground (Gen. 111223.) Children reared to love flowers have their hearts filled with love for beauty and thus have less room in their hearts and minds for the things that hurt and destroy. Still another point of view. The progressiveness and thrift of a community or municipality are often reflected in its appearance, and, while the Dominion is stressng the importance of the influx of tourists, the best adverâ€" tising that any community can do is to present a pleas- ing appearance. In the matter of what are the most suitâ€" able flowers and plants for the district, information will gladly be given by the nearest Agricultural College, or the Experimental Farm of the Dominion or Provincial De- partments of Agriculture. i ********* {e' A CHANGED CURRICULUM NEEDED Dr. Duncan McArthur, Deputy Minister of Education, is at present in Europe to study rural education in Den- mark and Holland. Before embarking he predicted that sweeping changes in Ontario’s educational system would take place in the very near future, an announcement that must have brought fresh hope to thousands of educationâ€" minded citizens of this province. Soon there will be 230,000 young men and women leav- ing the halls of our secondary schools for good. It is esti- mated by men who have made a study of this problem that at least 100,000 of them will join the ranks of the unemployed. Already an actual survey shows at least 457.000 young men between the ages of 18 and 30 on reâ€" lief in Canada. Inasmuch as the majoritv of the boys and girls leaving our high schools have an insufficient know- ledge of any one subject and have no special training in the use of their hands such as would fit them to fill a job right away, we may expect that a large share of them will not be absorbed into useful employment, There is no doubt that our educational system is large- ly responsible for failure to train our youth in the proper channels to enable them to take their place and fill a niche in the practical, workaday world which they find about them. The trouble is that the high school curriculum is designed to train boys and girls for university courses, whereas, only ten per cent. ever go to university. It is a crime to try to force the other ninety per cent. to assimi- late the subjects taught in the present curriculum. It can only result in injuring the mental health and souring the character of boys and girls who want something more prac- tical and useful to study. * * 1" * * * * * =3 IS SPEED OF LIFE DRIVING US CRAZY? Dr. Montgomery of the Ontario Hospital at Whitby says that 50 per cent. of those suffering from mental dis- ease are victims of excessive stress of modern civilization. When we consider that about 2,000 new patients are admitted to Ontario mental hospitals every year and that many more are left to be cared for at home, we must realize that this is a serious situation. Admitting that we are living in an age when things unknown compara- tively few years ago are now almost considered necessi- ties still we must ask whether the advance has been worth what it is costing. When we think of at least 1,000 a year brought down mentally by the stress and strain of present day life, we are forced to conclude that we are paying too dearly for our advantages. Now everything is labor-saving and speed. No longer is any one content to wait while a correspondent in Van- couver or London, England answers a letterâ€"he, is called on the telephone. By air San Francisco is no further away from Ingersoll now than Montreal was by train a few years ago. It’s all speedâ€"speedâ€"and more speed. 312': JUNE, THE MONTH OF ROSES June is called the month of roses. The rose is callcd the queen of flowers. So this favorite month springs into ecstatic color, as millions of r0se bushes and vines burst into bloom. Probably a vote would show the rose the inOst popular flower. Douglas’ encyclopedia of quotations gives 53 about roses. while the violets only get 32. and the lilies only seven. Wilberforce said that roses are the smiles of God's goodness, while Campbell struck a more senti- mental note when he wrote that when love first :unr: to earth, the spring spread rosebuds to receive him. The blushing red of the rose seems appropriate to lovers, who feel they have advanced their cause with the fair on»: when they send her a box of those gorgeous flowers. **>I=*:l<$>2: A th e a. of the to the of be its V"HE CANADIAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION AND INSUHANCL COMPANIIS EXlici-ience taught our forefathers wounds. down the fear of rusty nails deep wounds of the hands or feet. It was bacillus,, the specific cause of lockâ€" jaw or tetanus, was discovered. Sub- sequent investigations have provided standing of this disease. The tetanus bacillus has a number of unusual characteristics. It is com- monly found living in the intestines plains its presence in stables, barn- yards, cultivated soil, animal inan- ure, and street dust. The tetanus bacillus is one of the few disease-producing bacteria pos- sessing the power to form spores, a resistant dormant state, whereby it may survive, for many years, under adverse conditions that destroy other bacteria. ,The poison or toxin bacillus elaborates is unusually powâ€" erful, and it has a certain predilec- tion for nerve tissues. bacillus is called an anaerebe as it flourishes in the absence of oxygen. With this information as to where growth, we can understand that any wound which is contaminated soil should be considered dangerous. Rust is not dangerous in itself, but dirt on it than is the brightly pol- ished nail, hence the bad reputation Deep penetrating wounds, particu- larly of the hands or feet, and gunâ€" shot or powder wounds are serious. Any tetanus bacilli carried into such wounds favourable opportunity for growth, shut off from the air in warm and moist surroundings.

HITCH HIKERS ARE HIGHWAY NI’ISANCE 'I‘imcsâ€"Review. Fort Erie. Ontâ€"Now that summer ap- pears to have arrived at long last, it brings with it the usual parasitic pestsâ€"mosquitoes, sandflies and hitch hik- ers. And of all the evils, perhaps the last mentioned is the worst. _ \thn hitch-hiking began, it was a case of necessity. People wanted to go places, to look for work, or to make a necessary visit. and didn't have the funds for transpor- tation. So some genius conceived the idea of standing: on the side of the road, gesturing in the direction he wanted to go and letting nature and some kind hearted motorist do the rest. . ' But today it has increased from a necessity to an inâ€" dustry. Accomplished hitch hikers look at a map and dis- cover somewhere they want to go. They blithely pacl; an extra handkerchief and a toothbrush, go through some setting-up exercises to limber up their thumbs and start on their way. _ It's impossible today to start out for a drive of twenty miles or more with plenty of passenger space in the‘cai' without encountering a crooked thumb. And the_face behind that thumb may belong to anybody from a girl or fifteen to a grayâ€"bearded septuagenarian. The royal _orâ€" der of hikers incllude both sexes, all ages and every kind dis osition. . ' Of Tlie nuisance holds danger for the motorist in more ways than one. Hikers are prone to stand close to the side of the road, making the motorist who is not stop- ping pull over to the centre and come closer than com.- fortable to other traffic. Most of them are harmless, outside of their conversation, once they get into a em, but occasionally reports are heard where the unsuspecting ' ' ‘ ' bump driver icked up a stiange passengei and had a raised (iii his head for his pains, while his valuables and ossiblv his car left for parts unknown. p And there is the other aspect of the case to be con- sidered. Trains and buses are operated to produce reveâ€" nue through carrying passengers from place to place.
