The newspapers can do much to fortify the feelings of the people against a possible war. Scare headâ€"lines adopted by the metropolitan press will certainly be a factor in discouraging industry to continue expansion. If war does come, it cannot be helped, but in the meantime, under the circumstances, let us remain calm and continue the even tenor of our ways. Keeping people in a constant state of excitement will help matters none and we would suggest that the newspapers and press services, devote more space to those things going on at home and within the Empire, allowing the dictators to run their own little show, refusing them any volume of advertising in this country. By ignoring them, or at least reducing the space devoted to their constant threats and ravings, we may find eventually, that Mussolini and Hitler have more trouble on their hands right at home than with which they can hope to cope- If the newspapers would take a lesson from the ad- vertisement inserted in The Globe and Mail recently by The E. W. Reynolds Advertising Agency, they would be doing the people of Canada a great service. It. was one of the finest pieces of literature it has been our privi- lege to read for some time. It contained some splendid hints which, if followed, would greatly reduce the state of fear existing today. The newspapers have been ac- cused of becoming war-mongers and as was pointed out previously, head-lines in forty-eight and sixty point type will not alleviate, but will add to the hysteria. If Can- adians only realized it, Hitler’s move at Munich might prove a boomerang for Canada and The Empire with the transfer of Czechoslovakian funds to this continent. Just here, we would like to pay a tribute to the chap who wrote that copy in the Reynolds advertisement. Well written, brief, couched in simple language and convincing, it was an excellent piece of work. In an open letter to all daily newspaper editors, he said: ‘7‘Remember the feature headlines in the months prior to Their Majesties’ visit? Stories of move and counter- move by the European nations . . . half of which never materialized, but which had done their job of scaring peo- ple half into the ground- If a world collapse is expected tomorrow, people get worried and apprehensive and stop doing things. And that’s what has been the trouble with people and thereâ€" fore with business during the last few months. In ten years three types of total collapse have been prophesiedâ€" 1. World trade â€" 2. World finance â€" 3. World politics â€"â€"-and these gloomy forebodings have never materialized. Being at the edge of a precipice means that we are still on top of it. It’s time for a change! We’ve had enough “scream” lines on the subject of internationgl collapse. So from now on let’s give ourselves a break and keep these things off the front page. Give us the news, but not with an importance it no longer warrants. We hear a great deal about new political ‘isms’ from abroad. Some claim they are more efficient â€" are they? If so, at what price? One thing we do know: not one of them has afforded the plain man the simple liberty to move around and think and live as he pleases, and the opportunity to work out his own ‘economic determinism’. This, our present system does so. It does afford a uniâ€" formity of opportunity and we have the best form of good government the world has produced. We have no desire to become pollyannas and to blind ourselves to emergencies. A distinguished visitor recently stated that Canadians are the best informed people in the world, and we thank you editors for that. We believe in keeping that way. But we are rather weary of getting too much emphasis on one side of the news, so that we can’t get on with our real job, which is building . . . producing . selling. The newspaper’s great value is in its influence on the thinking public. This. we repeat, has been amply demon- strated in the past few months. But Canada has been suffering from a propaganda of apprehension and the newspapers of the Dominion would be rendering the peo- ple a great service by conducting propaganda of confid- ence, friendliness and good neighborliness. That is what business and industry needs and it is what the Canadiaa people seek. m n,,,_J:_.A I’ We sayâ€"more news about the doings of Canadian, British and American peoples. the builders of real democ- racyâ€"more front page headlines about their activities, leaders, ideals and actions. There’s a big job ahead of us. Let’s go! We look to you £61- leadership in that diâ€" rection. 7 A “u'fhe visit of the King and Queen has served to re- mind us of the things that have made us what we are todayâ€"that have led to this brotherhood of British na- tions held together only by a common tongue, common idealsâ€"and the Crown!” What of the future? Will further industries be lo- cated or will the constant talk and threats of war which preceded the royal Visit. be the means of scaring capital back into the vaults of the world? During the King’s visit to Canada, the dictators have been crowded off the front pages of the daily newspapers. The people of Can- ada will be grateful to the newspapers of this Dominion if Hitler and Mussolini are permanently relegated to the inside pages now that Their Majesties have left these shores. OPTIMISTIC FEELING FOLLOWS ROYAL VISIT Industrial figures have indicated during the past six weeks that business is on the uptrend. People are more optimistic; the purseâ€"strings of capital have been removed; money is being spent more freely, and general appear- ances are, that Canada is due for a new wave of prosper- ity. The new tone of things may be largely attributed to the Visit of Their Majesties, King George and Queen Elizabeth. At all events, a spirit of optimism has exerted itself which is good to see.

If everyone who drives a car would heed the danger signs, Placed by the highway engineers, who also marked the lines, To keep the traffic in the lane and give it proper space, The accidents We read about c0uld not have taken place. By J. R. Harrison, D.C. Good health is based not only on right physical conditions, but menâ€" tal and emotional factors play a leading role and these mental and emotional factors arise from the fundamental philosophy of life held by the individual. If this philomphy is a healthy one it leads to courage Which always reinforces the new- ous energies of the body. Courage is of two kinds. One man’s philâ€" os0phy of life may lead him to say “It is natural to fight and I have confidence in myself to win out in the battle of life.” This is one gen- eral type of courage. But another man may look deeper and deny that it is natural to fight seeing that fighting is a conception to the rule as both animals and men generally only fight if it is necessary or rath- er if they think it is necessary. In other words everything in nature al- ways tends not to fight ‘but to folâ€" low the line of least resistance. Look at the body under a micro- scope and it appears to be a battle- ground but we know in reality that all this activity works for the bene- fit of the 'body as a whole and there is no conflict of purpose. Thus from the larger vieWpoint life is not a fight but a fulfillment andI we can adopt an attitude of non-resistance because there is really nothing to resist and therefore nothing to fear. Either one of these two philosophL cal approaches to life breeds courâ€" age and therefore helps- to maintain or restore health. If everyone who drrives a car could _ lie a month‘ in bed, With broken bones and sItitch‘edLup wounds, or fractures of the head And there endure the agonies that many people do, They’d never need preach" safety any more to me and you. If; everyone could stand] beside the bed: of some close friend, Anti hear the doctor say ‘no‘ hope’ {before that fatal end, And see him there unconscious, nev- er knowing what took place, The laws and rules of traffic I am sure We’d! soon embrace. If everyone could meet the wife and children left behind, And step into the darkened home where once the sunlight shined, And look upon “The Vacant Chair" where Dad-dy used to sit, I’m sure each reckless driver would be forced to think a bit. If everyone would: realize pedes- trians on the street, Have just as much the rightâ€"of-way as those upon the seat, And~ train their eyes for children who run recklessly at play, This steady toll of human lives would drop from day to day.

The months fly :by, and correspondâ€" ence is one thing that is habitually neglected. Time goes quickly and yet sometimes I feel that surely we have been in this war for more than two years. We hope and pray that Peace will come some day, but we lhave lost hope for am'early peace. Just one year ago I left Changte with the children, and after three weeks we set up at Peitaiho, a love- ly seaside resort. We carried on without the head Olf the house for four months there, and th8n mOVed to the Port City of Tientsin. There we continued our refugee life. Peter was born at the end of October, and we enjoyed seeing our “better half" for three weeks. Mr. and Mrs. Hugh MacKenzie of our Mission kindly op- end‘ their home to us, and the kid- dies attended the Tientsin Grammar School. It was a great advantage to have our eldest, Robert, in a good‘ school, as he passed his seventh birthday last Fall. The little girls also attended kindergarten, and all three enjoyed school tremendously. However, Home is Best, so her-e we are again, and I am trying to carry on the educational process, although I have had no training in this lime. Our compounds look much as use ual in the spring time. I have writ- ten in former years about our flow- ering bushes, almond, lilac, Judas tree, yellow roses and othersâ€"and 011’ the profusion of violets and other little wild flowers. The children have greeted each new kind of flower so enthusiastically, and we are particu- larly rich in'a neighbour’s fine tulip bed, and lovely iris of all colors. Roses will come next, and the gar- denis will also begin bearing straw- berries, and the new vegetables. There has been no rain to speak of, so these gardens depend for their moisture on hard labour. You can imagine how interested the children are in the streams of water, that flow towards the gardens as the gardeners turn out bucket after Fouc- ket, drawn up from the wells with rope and Windlass. It is strange the attraction that good mud has, and how dirty they can get in a very short time! Member of Henan Mission Tells of Conditions To Day in China Richmond Hill fl‘( Mitchell of the H the United Church A school for girls and young woâ€" men was opened here last Fall, and over seventy are in attendance. The nurses’ training school has also re- opened classes and Miss Preston, just back from furlough, has to wrestle with the problem of how to fit classes in when there is so much work to be done in our overfi‘lled wards. Our other Canadian nurse, Miss Georgina Menzies its to be mar- ried in June, and we are all lookâ€" ing forward to the event, which is to take place at seven aim. to avoid the heat. Our little girls are to be flower girls ‘but I have not dared to tell them. yet, as they will be too excited. The fields to the North of us are green with grain, and a dozen Wells are scattered here and there, with Mr. Eadie, who is now Senior Mis- sionaiy at Changte, leaves next week for a year’s furlough. Today a re- dzlpttilon is being held, and all his friends are in to say “Goodey-e.” Bobby gravitated towards the Chin- ese swveeties, and there he found other boys with whom he is now playing football. I was over for a while. trying out my inadequate Chinese in a sooial way. I can alâ€" ways express my admiration of a fine plump baby, and then when he starts to whimper with fright at the awful fairâ€"haired creature, I retire gracefully.
