REVIEW. DRUMHELLER, ALBERTA, Thrifty Housewives Buy Quality SALADA TEA “Fresh from the Gardens” Responsibility It has become an almost universal habit to enter a new calendar year light-heartedly,’in a spirit of gaiety, with nothing but words of happiness and good cheer upon our lips. And it is well that our greetings to one an- other on this annual occasion should take the form of good wishes for health, happiness and prosperity. But after the jollity attendant upon the passing of the old year and entry into the new be ended, there should come ‘to most of us as intelligent men and women more scrious: thoughts and a deeper realization of the significance of a new year. The tearing off from the calendar of the last monthly sheet of the old ‘year; the opening of the diary of the new year at. page one; the changing of the figures ofthe year from 1933 to 1934,—these should bring home to “us a new and greater sense of our individual responsibility in relation to the year upon which we have entered. Because many of the big problems of tthe year are beyond our control; because many of the happenings of the year and its trends in this direction or that will develop irrespective of our views or actions, the fact should not be overlooked that the responsibility is ours for the determination and di- rection of numerous small matters which actually exert a far greater influ- ence in the making or marring of our lives than these other so-called great- er things which are beyond our control. In the event of a great plague or epidemic of disease most of us would at once become alive to our responsibility to safeguard ourselves, our fami- lies, and our community from it. But how many of us give the same thought and accept the same responsibility for the day-to-day state of our health? Yet the state of our health, our vigor of mind and body, is a matter that most of us can determine to a large extent for ourselves, Health is the re- sult of our habits and ways of living. It influences our lives possibly more than any pther one thing. The responsibility is mainly our own to promote good health or. bring on poor health; it is a responsibility that others cannot accept for us. Again responsibility for our words and actions rests with ourselves. It is our duty to control our tongues, to weigh our words, to direct our actions. What misunderstandings, heart-burnings, pain and sorrow have been caused by a few thougatless words: how many friendships have been broken.and communities thrown into bitter strife because someone failed to recognize their responsibility before they spoke. It is such a simple thing to light a match, but the results of that simple act depend upon the use’ to which the lighted match is put; whether it is in the hands of a or ii rp sible person, It may provide a guide to a lonely wanderer and warmth and comfort and suitably prepared food for him, or it may start a conflagration | month, and reduced my weight 13 resulting in the loss of many lives and destruction of much property.

When the final figures are in, the exports of ham and bacon will total about 75,000,000 pounds of which ap- proximately 70,000,000 went to the ‘United Kingdom. Last year 30,693,400 pounds went to the United Kingdom out of a total of 35,820,400 pounds. Approximately 52,850 live cattle went from Canada to the United Kingdom this year. About 8,500 head went to other countries or a total of over 61,000. head. Last year 16,925 head went to United Kingdom and 11,896. to other countries, or 28,831 altogether. ‘The egg exports this year totalled about 2,000,000 dozen. Last year the total was only 272,000 dozen. On the other hand practically no eggs were imported. Some years back Canada used to export over 6,000,000 dozen but at that time about as many eggs were imported as exported. Canada - shipped about 1,000,000 pounds of dressed poultry, mostly turkeys, to the British market for the holiday trade. This was about 100,000 pounds more than last year when the movement was started. ‘The exports of butter this year ex- ceeded last, year's, but there was a marked falling off in cheese.

The measure of a man: is how he faces and accepts responsibility. All our education has bnt one main object,—the preparation of youth. for the acceptance and discharge of such responsibilities as life may impose upon them, Placing responsibility upon ‘them has been the salvation of many a person. It has led many away from folly, awakening taem to the realities of life, widening their vision, and developing powers they little realized they possessed. Let. us throughout 1934 measure up to our responsibilities, whatever they may be; facing them fearlessly and discharging them courageously and efficiently to the best of our ability. A. L.

It is the story of ‘the Eskimo organizing labor for the first time and against none other than the famed Royal Canadian Mounted Police and the his- toric Hudson’s Bay Company. By the “moccasin” trail and other means-of ‘Arctic travel it reached Ottawa. Bady nesded for coastal Arctic posts,a congestion of police and company supplies was on hand at Aklavik. The usual seasonal pay of $20 per ton for unloading was offered to the Eskimo, Sensing the exigen- cies of the situation,-the wily “steve- dores” sprung a surprise and held an impromptu meeting. They demanded $25 per ton and refused to comprom- ise. The police and the company cap- itulated. Some 20 Eskimo were involved in the strike. The pay went into a “pool” divided equally between them at the end of the navigation season. Credti | accounts for the men were establish- ed accordingly for supplies at stores | of the Hudson's Bay Company.

The slang of today will in time be- come “good English,” will find its way into the precincts of authorita- tive dictionaries and will ‘become an intrinsic part of the language. Prof. M. W. Wallace, head of the English department of the University of Toronto and principal of Univer- sity College, drew attention to, this fact. Words which have come into being during. the past 12 months and’ now despised by language pur- ists will, In time, take a permanent berth in. the language spoken over the greater part of the ¢: Only recently the Oxford diction- ary was added to by an appendix which listed words such as' gat, gangster and ga-ga, and. Prof. F. Newton Scott in & pamphlet. for the Society for Pure English listed words such as blaa, appleseauce, cinch, buck, hootch, bootlegger and wop. Prof. Wallace .stated it would be impossible for a language to remain “pure” as we know it today. Words which were tabooed by purists a cen- tury ago are now in common usage, he pointed out. “Tae reason people use slang,” he added, “Is because it gives them an air of being up-to-date and at the same time allows them to express their thoughts without much effort.” It was the fact that it required a minimum of effort to express the!r thoughts in slang that people used so extensively, he stated. One slang word—chizzler—was as- sured of a permanent place in Am- erican English at Jeast when Presi- dent. Franklin D. Roosevelt used it recently in an address. It is now re- garded a legitimate word. Although few. others have received the presidential boost they are equal- ly assured of being pronounced by sterity. This was the opinion of Prof. Wallace. and other English Bone Model Of Ship Beautiful Work On Display In Royal Naval Colloge One of tae most beautiful models of .an old-time fighting ship to be found in the world has been put on’ display in the Royal Naval Colege at Greenwich, England. It is en- tirely of bone, and is believed to jhave “been made by one of the French prisoners of war who. were held in England. Experts think they fashioned their material from. ‘the bones of the meat they were given to eat. The model belongs to Wal- ter Runciman, president. of the Brit- ish Board of Trade. Lieut. George Hunt, curator of the college museum, has just completed repairing and-re- rigging it. He used miles of silk twine and 771 ivory blocks and “dead eyes.” Barley Best For Hogs Experiments conducted by the ex- perimental station at Lacombe show barley to be the best .Canadian- grown coarse grain feed for hogs. This conclusion is based on the re- sults obtained in four experiments in Waich 134 hogs were used. ‘An ingenious lamp has been de- vised in Leipzig, Germany, intended to be placed upon graves, which will remain alight througout the most violent. rain or wind storms. “She is not only rich, but hand- some.’ She has half a million—what would you'do if you had such a wife?” “Nothing.” ‘The United States spends four times .as muca money on its sports as any other country.

DOES NOT HARM THE HEART Canada’s Non-Metal-ic Minerals Dominion Is Tho Leading Producer tf Asbestos Canada is the leading producer cf asbestos, has the largest talc output in the British Empire, and is one of the three mica-producing nations ac- cording to the Department of Mines, Ottawa. The Dominion is an export- er of feldspar, gypsum, salt, arsenic, diatomite, and grindstones, and a producer of sodium sulphate, natural and artificial abrasives, magnesite, silica, moulding sands, soapstone, phosphate and many others. Minerals mown to occur rather extensively include barite, chromite, sulphur (py- rites), volcanic. dust, and garnet. De- velopment of these minerals is large- ly in the initial stages. To the fore- going should be added structural ‘Tinateflals which: are gencrally class- ed as non-metallics: and whi in- clude clay, sand and gravel, lime- stone, granite, and marble. Occurrenc- es of these are abundant in Canada and in the main are of . excellent quality. - New Treatment. Found Minnesota Doctor Announces Suc- cessful. Remedy. For Head Colds A new highly successful treatment for head colds was announced by Dr. Harold S. Diehl, of the University of Minnesota, simultaneously, with its publication in the Journal of the American Medical Association. The treatment, which employs codein? and papaverine, two practically harmless opium derivatives, Dr. Diehl said, has resulted in “definite im- provement” in. the cases of 75 per cent. of the students who used it. Medical records, it was pointed, showed no other cold treatment so successful. Gopher Polson Sales High ‘The sale of gopher poison through the Seskatchewar™ Association of Rural unicipalities in 1933, exceeded the sales of any previous year by 86 per cent. The association also dis- tributes a line ‘of weed chemical which is used’ for destroying certain types of noxious weeds.
