The final test of good‘ manners is a gift that seems awful to you, but Wonderful to the giver. The occurrence of boils in mast cases means that the sufferer has not been giving the reasonahle care to his body that is required if a con- dition of health is to be maintained. To have a healthy skin, it is necess- ary- to keep the whole body in a state of health by living a hygienic life. In some cases, vaccines are used to raise the resistance â€" fighting power â€" against the germ. In all cases, the general health must be considered. Proper diet, exercise. fresh air, body cleanliness, regular elimination, all go to make up a hyâ€" gienic life. Considerable harm may follow the squeezing of boils. The individual’s hands should be kept away from the boil, and it should be opened and treated at the proper time by a phy- sician. Boils are infections in the sense that they are caused bv living germs. In the treatment bf boils, this fact must be kept in mind, and the boil should be treated with the same strict cleanlineSS that 15 used in all surgical treatments. As a result of the occurrence of one or more of the above conditions. the normal resistance of the skin is lost or decreased; then, the germs present on the skin are enabled to gain a foothold. The result of their activity is inflammation â€"â€" redness, swelling, pain and the production of pus. The skin may 'be broken in many ways, such as when it is cut, scratch- ed or ‘bruised. The skin is an im- portant part of the body and, as has already been mentioned, if one part of the body is upset, other parts are apt to suffer. The healthy condi- tion of the skin is lost and its power to‘resist the action of germs is more or less decreased in the presence of actual diseases, such as diabetes. The skin is also injured by upsets of the digestive tract, by faulty diet, and by an unhygu'enic life which starves the body of fresh air. Uncleanliness, and overclothing which results in exâ€" cessive perspiration and irritation of the skin, lower its resistance. SHEPPARD & GILL LUMBER CO. There are germs, commonly called disease germs, which ‘cause certain specific diseases. such as diphtheria and typhoid fever. There are other germs which are very common; some of 'these are probably always present on the skin, but as long as the skin is unbroken and healthy, they do no harm. ' BOILS The unbroken healthy skin is an effective barrier to the entrance, in- to the body, of the numerous germs with which the skin is brought ‘into contact. THURSDAY, JULY 29th, 1937.

The Basques are an old Celtic race who down the cenâ€" turies have maintained their own language, their own customs and their own semi-independence. They are said- to be linked with the Welsh and have many of the same charac- teristics, The country is rich in- iron ore and is a prize industrially. The ‘Basques, although Roman Catholics, threw in their lot with the G0vern- 'ment which had recognized their in- dependence. General Franco, with ‘the aid of Italian troops and German planes, made a deSperate onslaught ‘on this isolated mountainous c0untry. It was a cruel military drive, mark- ed by the slaughter of thousands of 'civilians through airplane attacks. The situation became so desperate in BiLbao that the British Govern- ment made arrangements to evacuâ€" ate many thousands of Basque chilâ€" dren. Four thousand were removed to Britain and set up ‘in camps in ‘England under the direction of the ‘Salvation Army. Others were taken to France and some to the Nether- War in Air The war has shown that the next struggle will be largely determined in the air. It has also proven that the civilians will suffer as much or more than the soldier. Thousands of inno- cent people have been killed on both sides by air bombardments. The deâ€" fence of Madrid will go dOWn in his- tory. Stubbornly and courageously the Government troops have held off the better-armed insurgents. With their backs to the wall thou have driven off attack after attack and to-day apparently have taken the of- fensive with a view to breaking the seige. The pity of it is that large parts of one of the most beautiful cities in Europe have been Pounded into dust. On the other hand, it is doubtful whether General Franco is an out and out Fascist. He represents the army, the landed interests, the old regime. Italy and Germany, with their own axes to grind, have been aiding the rebels with men, equip» ment and planes. Mussolini and Hit- ler saw a chance to establish a new state, which would be subservient to Fascist countries in a key position ‘in Europe. It would mean that "France would be surrounded by a ring {of hostile nations and Britain would no longer be able to dominate the ‘Mediterranean. So Government 1troops and rebels have perhaps un- ’consciously been dragged into a class war which has threatened the peace 'of Europe. There is hardly a counâ€" try in the world which has not had some fighting- on one side or the other. Even Canada has had a Mac- kei.zieâ€"Papineau battalion fighting with the Government forces. There has been a Lincoln battalion recruit- ed from the United States. It has been a little Great War which has been fought out on the Iberian pen- insula. While the Government has been deâ€" scribed as Oommunistic and Red. yet 'it is doubtful if the majbrity of those supporting the present Madrid adâ€" ‘ministration have the slightest inter- est in the principles of Marxism or 'know what they mean. What they ‘want to see established is a more ‘liberal and, democratic Government. However, they have been only too 'glad to us'e aid from Russia or any place else. UndOubtedly Russian planes have been instrumental in helping the Government forces in their stubborn defense of Madrid. A year ago this month saw the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War, ‘the cruelest and bitterest war of its ‘kind in modern times. It has been harried on with mediaeval ferocity ‘and with all the devastation of m0d~ ern weapons. It was on the evening of July 17 that newspapers outside of Spain suddenly found that tele~ phonic communication was severed and! when re-established that a swift and well-organized military revolt originating in the army in Spanish Morocco had begun. This was follâ€" owed by well planned outbreaks in 'Spain proper and. under the command of General Franco the rebels have been pounding away since then with varying success. In February 1936, an election was held in Spain. The Popular Front party which represented various» Left parties, Liberals, Socialists and Com- ‘munists, secured a large majority of seats, but the Right Wing parties ‘claimed that they had the larger 'v‘ote. Right leaders declared that the ‘Government of the Left lacked ade- ‘quate authority. There were continâ€" ual disorders, murders and reprisals until finally feeling grew so bitter that civil war broke out.

For the necessary field and garâ€" den seeds imported into Canada for the year ended May 1, 1937, thir- teen different countries se-nt contri- ‘butions, namely China, Japan, Sus- tralia, New Zealand, United States, ‘British Isles, France, Hlolland, Ger- ‘many, Denmark, Italy, Poland, and ‘Hungary.

While the struggle is proceeding thousands of pponle are being killed 'and a lovely country is being devast- ‘ed. It is a blot on modern civiliza- ‘tion. It is not a pretty 20th cenâ€" ‘tury picture. As for the British Government, there is no question that it has but one clear policy and that is to bring 'about peace in Spain and; to pre- 'vent the war overflowing into Eur- 'ope. Whether it can succeed re- mains to be seen. In the meantime, lands and Denmark. Finally the Basques, ill-equipped to fight modern ‘troops, surrendered and Bilbao and ‘most of the surrounding country is now in the hands of General Franco. Spread of the War France and Great Britain, and par- ‘ticularly the latter, have been using all their diplomatic skill and influ- ence to prevent the war spreading throughout Europe. It would be the bitteres't war of all times because it would be a class war more than. a struggle between nations. It would overwhelm Europe. After innumerâ€" able conferences 3 non-intervention- committee was set up. This com- mittee’s aim was to isolate the war in Spain, and to prevent men and supplies reaching both sides. How- ever, there has been deep suspicion from the first. No one trusted any- one els-e. Finally one day a German cruiser, engaged in patrolling the Spanish coast, was bombed by Gov- ernment planes. The germans shock- ed the world by shelling, in retallia- tion, a Spanish coast town. Was this this the shot which would start a The result was, though that Ger- many and Italy withdrew from the non-intervention committee and now no one knows what will happen. France is threatening to permit arm- aments to flow freely across her boarders to both sides. This would mean largely to the Government. In Britain feeling is tightening against General Franco and his Italian sup- ported forces. It. is felt that if Franco wins: it will endanger Britâ€" ai‘n’s supremacy of the Mediterra- nean. Labor, militantly pacific, is now calling upon the Government to take a more determined attitude a- gainst the rebels~an attitude which if logically pursued might result in War with Mussolini. new war? The whole world had the jitters. However, a firm stand taken by Britain and France and a warnâ€" ing to Hitler resulted in a German back-down. STOCK REGISTER THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO Brother, Can You Spare Five Minutes on a Trip I have a few suggestions which ought. to cut automob'ie accidents in this province down about 50 per cent over nightâ€"well, anyway, by the middle of next week. My first suggestion to all motor- ists is: Drive carefully enough for yourself and the om-ér fellow too, because the chanceg are he isn’t. The present system is to let the other fellow take cure of us â€" but look at the figures for last year; over 500 killed and more than 10,000 injured in Ontario. That can’t be such a good idea. My suggestion is for each of us to take care of himself and one other driver, too. Don’t you think it’s a dandy plan? If everybody agreed to this sys- tem, we‘d have twice as much motorâ€" ing carefulness and courtesy} as we need in the world â€"- instead of half enough as at present. If everybody in Ontario would re- solve to contribute five minutes a day to the cause of automobile safe- ty, we could cut the death and acciâ€" dent toll in two. Five minutes a dam. Brother, can you spare five minutes a day? A little ordinary cpurtesy would help, too. We are nsuallv nrettv beaceful in our attitude tawards our fellow man, but the minute some of us get behind a steering wheel, we seem to regard ever-v. man. as our enemy. We’ll be darned if we’ll let that fellow pass us or get across the I’ve often heard‘ it said that it isn’t fast drivers who cause acci- dents, but statistics gathered by the Accident Recording Division of the Department of Highways upset this glib philosophy with figures show- ing that nearly 1,200 accidents last year; were the result of excessive speeds. So there! Hurry. There's the hub of this whole accident business. Probably} nineâ€"tenths of our automobile accl- dents are caused by people trying to save five minutes. We rush like mad' to get somewhere, and it doesn’t a- mount to much when we get there. Methods of locomotion have improv- ed greatly in recent years, but places to go have remained about the samE. If we have an. appointment with somebodv, the chances are, anyway}, that he’ll be 10 or 15 minutes late, so What’s all the rush about?

You don’t have to prove to him that your car has the greatest pick-up in all crea- tion, or that you are the master mot- orist of all time. A little Alphonse and Gaston stuff would help us keep folks out of hospitals and cemeteries. A careful study of tables of last year’s motor car death and accident causes shows that a large percent- age were the result of unnecessary hurry, carelessness, and lack of cour- tesy or consideration of the rights and comforts of others. And nearly all of them could have been avoided if every driver had started out every morning with the resolution to drive carefully enough for himself and the other fellow too, and to tax himself five minutes a day for the general cause of automobile safety, and to show his fellow humans just" a wee bit of ordinary, everyâ€"dam courtesy. CAPONE TAMED Only a few years ago there was a man known as the “world’s toughest guy.” His name was Al Capone. He has for some time been a “guest” of the United States Gave'rnment at that “picturesque” California man- sion known as Alcatraz Prison, an establishment which transforms “big shots” into very “small potatoes.” The stern dictator of Alcatraz, War- de-n Johnson, tells the story of the Chicago gangster, whom “we have taught is not as big as he thought he was. . .the one-time fat and flashy habitue of the most expensive res- taurants who is now a mild, thin little fellow toiling eight hours a day amid the soap-suds and steam of the prison laundry.”(From the Victoria Times.)
