DBC. 20. 1937.\nPRINCESS AT NINETY ENJOYS SHOPPING FOR CHRISTMAS\nCorrects Habit . . .\nMany Reasons\nBabies Should Nol\nSuck Their Thumbs\nThis Ib the eleventh in a series\nof health stories approved by the\nNelson board of public health.\nCHAPTER 11\nMrs- Reynolds and Mrs. Brown\nhad much in common. They were\nabout the same age, they belonged\nto the same church, they belonged\nto the same club, and they both\nhad brand new babies.\nThe two young mothers spent\nmany afternoons together discussing the problems of child-rearing.\nThanks to modern medical measures, they both were rapidly becoming quite well educated on the\nsubject, both used common sense\nand good judgment, and their children were visual proof of their\ncare and attention.\nLittle Billy Brown waa two\nmonths younger than Jack Reynolds. When Billy was less than a\nmonth old, he developed the cunning habit of sucking his thumb.\nAt first, this caused no alarm, and\nthen he looked so cute and contented as he lay blissfully in his\ncrib, sucking the pretty pink thumb.\nDr. Hayes, the physician, coupling\nthe thumb-sucking with other\nsymptoms, decided that Billy was\nnot receiving enough nourishment,\nHe prescribed some supplementary\nfeeding, which soon corrected the\nundernourishment symptoms, but\ndid not correct the thumb-sucking.\nWhen the habit became more pronounced, Mrs. Brown tried various\nmethods to correct it. She removed\nthe offending thumb every time she\nsaw it in his mouth; she tied the\nends of his shirt and night gown\nsleeve together; she placed adhesive\ntape on his fingers and thumbs; she\neven put some unpleasant tasting\nmedicine on his hands. None of\nthese so-called cures proved satisfactory-\nNaturally this trial and error\nmethod took time. But none of- the\nmeasures took effect. By the time\nBilly was four months old* the\nthumb-sucking habit was more pronounced than ever- Finally in desperation, Mrs. Brown asked her\nphysician's advice.\nDr. Hayes listened in sympathy.\n\"You have a problem to solve, Mrs,\nBrown. A somewhat common problem, but you must solve it. Thumb-\nsucking and finger-sucking help to\ncarry germs to the baby's mouth,\nFor that reason alone, it should be\nstopped. The constant pressure exerted by the thumb or finger on the\npalate will in time change the shape\nof his jaws and face. Remember that\na child's bopes are very soft and\npliable. They can easily be pushed\nout of shape by constant pressure.\nWhile the pressure exerted by-\nthumb-sucking is very slight, if it\nis persisted in for a sufficient length\nof time, it will cause his upper front\nteeth to protrude and prevent his\nteeth from coming together properly.\n\u2022\"Fortunately, Billy is still so\nyoung that we can correct the habit\neasily. This is how we will do it.\nMake a stiff cardboard cuff for each\narm. This cuff should be long\nenough to extend almost from his\nshoulder to his wrist. It should be\nlarge enough that, he can bend his\nelbow slightly, yet he should not\nbe able lo bend it enough that he\ncan get. his hand to his mouth. The\ncuffs can he fastened to his sleeve\nby safety pins. ThU method rives\nfreedom to his hands and lt allows\nhim to use and exercise his arms,\nvet it prevents him from sucking\nhis thumb.\"\nNeedless to say, both Mrs. Brown\nand her friend Mrs. Reynolds we,re\ndelighted with the results- Their vision of a rabbit-faced Billy soon faded. By the time Billy was five\nmonth old, all evidence of the unpleasant habit had disappeared.\n(To Be Continued Next Monday)\nSoroptimist Club\nReviews Year al\nChristmas Tree\nA table centred with a sparkling\nChristmas tree; Christmas presents,\nChristmas carols, Christmas contests;\nmarked the December dinner of the\nNelson Soroptimist club, held Friday in the Hume hotel silver room.\nTwo new members, Mrs. Nellie\nSommer and Miss Belle McGauley,\nwere welcomed into the club by\nMiss Jean Gilker.\nMrs. Sarah Tyler, retiring president, gave a resume of the year's\nactivities, which included glasses;\nbooks and milk supplied to school\nchildren, donations to various societies, services rendered in connection with the recent Red Cross drive\nand the providing of curtains and\nframes for cots in the children's\nward of Kootenay Lake General\nhospital.\nThe treasurer's report, read by\nMiss Lois Sheffield, showed a substantial balance in the bank, to be\naugmented, it is hoped, by the Soroptimist auction sale in February\nnext. A sum of $10 was voted for the\nChristmas Cheer fund, and the purchase of cod liver oil for undernourished school children, at the\nrequest of Miss Dunn, public health\nnurse, was authorized.\nAn election of officers for the\nforthcoming year resulted as follows: president, Emily Hamson;\nvice-president, Lois Sheffield; recording secretary, Ruby Young; corresponding secretary, Grace McDonald; treasurer, Jeap Gilker; board ot\ndirectors; Marion McPhail, Sarah\nTyler, Marian Wallace.\nFor dress wear black suede gloves\nwith sequin trimmings are novel\nand swanky.\nHome Citizenship . .\nHousing Problem\nIs Good Argument\nTraining Kiddies\nBy GARRY C. MYERS, Ph.D.\nWith shortage of houses and of\napartments in most cities, many\nparents with babies and young children are having a hard time to\nfind desirable quarters. Some owners of two-family houses refuse to\nrent to parents of babies and young\nchildren. Even owners of single\nhouses strongly prefer tenants without children.\nThe chief reason given for excluding babies and young children from\napartments and two-family houses\nis the objection of the other tenants:\nthey dislike to be disturbed. Now\nchildless couples are far more numerous than they used to be and\ntheir number increasing. Naturally\nthe owner wishes to keep the tenants he has, satisfied.\nAnother reason why babies and\nchildren are not wanted is that\nchildren are more destructive of\nproperty. Many landlords complain\nthat children deface the walls and\nwallpaper and are hard on the\nstairways, shrubbery and lawn.\nOwners of apartments rent their\nplaces as a business. We, if we were\nin their place, would take the same\nattitude. We must remember that\nit is easy in these days to keep\napartments filled with tlie kind of\ntenants most favorable to the owner's business. Just why should we\nexpect him any more than we expect the butcher, grocer or druggist\nto run his business chiefly for the\nspecial advantage and privilege of\ncertain customers and at extra cost\nto him?\nMany tenant parents of babies\nand young children have helped\ncreate and exaggerate this problem\nby failing to train their children\nfrom early infancy to be very careful of property and considerate of\nthe rights of others. If all parents\nwho are tenants\u2014we lived in an\napartment when two of our children\nwere babies\u2014were willing and able\nto train their children properly,\nand were eager to make good any\nproperty their children destroyed,\nthis problem would not loom so\nlarge. The housing problem is a\nstrong argument for teaching children, from their early infancy, respect for the rights of others and\nregard for authority\u2014early home\ncitizenship.\nSerial Story . . .\nPeacock Feathers\nREAD THIS FIRST:\nJerry Chandler, son of a country\nclergyman in modest circumstances,\nafter a course at Yale, finally meets\nMimi Le Brun, now a St. Louis society girl, whom he has admired for\nyears. She is a cousin of Lionel\nClark, Jerry's only close friend at\ncollege. All three, with several\nother young people, are at a Maine\ncamp presided over by Olga, an attractive young woman who married Mimi's wealthy grandfather\nshortly before he died. Jerry has\njust met Andy Fuller who is in love\nwith Mimi. And now Jerry is wilh\nMimi herself. More impressed than\never with Mimi's charm. Jerry feels\nhe is going to enjoy the house party.\nBy TEMPLE BAILEY\nAt a nearby dance the first evening, Jerry begins to resent Andy's\nattentive ness to Mimi, Now. back\nfrom the dance at 2 a.m., Lionel\ndecides that Jerry must read to the\ngroup a play they have written.\nNOW GO ON WITH THE STORY:\nFor the \"Beanpole\" . . .\nBalanced Diet of Nourishing Food,\nExercise Will Keep Figure Perfect\nBy GLADYS GLAD\nOn? of our well-known movie critics recently startled his leaders by\ncalling a famous cinema siren a\n\"well-dressed beanpole,\" Not a very\ncomplimentary remark, of course,\nbut then, critics seldom are kind.\nHowever, this particular critic had\nlogic behind hi? comment Men. he\nclaims, like women to he slender\nand shapely, but they don't like\nthem to be skinny! Their idea of\nperfection is a woman who is slender, yet has softly-rounded contours. Scarecrows are out so far as\nmodern males are concerned.\nOne of the greatest mistakes that\nmany underweight individual:, make\nis to refrain from exercise. They\nhave the idea that exercising is only\nfor the fat, and they arc afraid that\nif they are too active they will become even thinner. Of course, this\nidea is entirely wrong. For exercise helps women to gain weight\nand acquire curves just as effectively\nas lt does to assist heavy women in\nlosing weight.\nMUST EAT WELL\nExercise makes the tissues active\nand healthy. When a woman who is\nfat exercises, her adipose tissue\nbreaks down as her tissues become\nactive. And when a thin woman exercises firm muscle develops in her\nstarved tissues.\nAnother reason why the underweight should exercise is that if\nshe is on a weight gaining diet, she\nmay acquire added poundage only\non certain portions of her body.\nAs a result, her figure will not appear properly proportioned. Proper\nexercise not only helps to develop\nthe body, but also molds it upon\nharmonious lines.\nA. thin woman must eat well, to\nprovide her body with plenty ol\nnourishment. That doesn't mean,\nhowever, that she must stuff herself to the point of discomfort just\nbecause she wants to gain weight. If\nshe cannot consume more food than\nordinarily, she can select those that\nare not very bulky or filling, but\nare nourishing.\nThe thin girls can indulge in all\nthe foods that the fat girl would\nlike to eat, but cannot. She may have\ncream and sugar on ber cereals and\nin her tea and coffee. She may have\ncream soups and creamed vegetables.\nShe may drink rich milk whenever\nshe wishes. And she may eat candies and good things like ice cream,\ncustard, rice end tapioca pudding\nfor desserts. But she must see to it\nMARJORIE WEAVER\nSlender and shapely\nthat she keeps it well-balanced,\nnevertheless. For unless ber diet\nhas basic foundation of frosh fruits\nand vegetables, it will not greatly\nbenefit her health or add to the\nloveliness of her figure. And she\nmust not neglect her exercise.\nCHAPTER 15\nThe Ammidon twins and Girard\nSylvester decided not to sit up for\nthe play reading. They had made\nplans for an early morning fishing\ntrip, and included in their plans\nwere two house guests whom I\nhave not mentioned\u2014Jimmie Hancock and Luther Dean. They made\nno apologies for their desertion.\nAnne Ammidon was dead for sleep\nand confessed it without shame.\n\"Run along, Baby,\" Lionel told\nher; \"you are too young for such\nlate hours \u2014 and. anyhow, Jerry's\nplay might go to your head.\"\n\"It isn't my play,\" I objected.\n\"Al! the love scenes are yours,\"\nhe said. \"You wouldn't let me touch\nthem.\"\nKatherine Merrill looked at me\n\"You don't mean that, you are as\nold-fashioned as that?\"\n\"As what0\"\n\"As to attempt the romantic.\"\n\"I haven't attempted it; I have\nachieved it,\" 1 said lightly.\nShe did not. know whether or not\nI was in earnest, nor did the rest\nof them, and I felt I had scored a\npoint by my daring,\nIt was, as I have said, the day\nin which we worshiped at the\nshrines of Shaw and Pinern and\nHenry Arthur Jones. But Lionel\nand I had followed no model. Wc\nhad flown high, and perhaps too\nhigh. We had taken the story of\na man who, seeing the hope of his\ncountry in a return to democracy,\napplies it to his own life and becomes, as his grandfather was before him, a cobbler, By day he\nmends shoes, and at night he lives\namong his books and studies the\nstars. There comes to his little\nshop a summer visitor\u2014a girl who\nwants her slippers mended. She\nis the ward of a rich aunt and has\nbeen brought up in luxury and\nidleness. The cobbler falls in love\nwith her, and the dramatic action\nis based on his fight, lo bring the\ngirl to his own democratic point\nof view and so save her from a\nricher suitor.\nThe whole thing was, as I have\nintimated, crude\u2014the effort of two\nboys who knew nothing of the\nstage. But there was imagination\nin it, and now and then it. .struck\n12. I had written the speech in\nthe third act where the cobbler\nmade his plea with the girl for a\nsimpler life, end I had written with\na pen of fire.\nIt needed, however, more than\na fast-driven pen to make the situation plausible. It. needed, indeed,\ngenius- Yet the work was strong\nin some parts. I have the old play\nnow; I wish I had the boy's fine\nfervor, as he dashed off the lines!\nMy audience grouped itself about\nthe hearth in a half circle. Mimi\nwas in Olga's high-backed chnir\nwith tho bearskin a background for\nher beauty. Andy lay on the rug\nat her feel. Thus enthroned among\ntbe shadows\u2014for there were only\nthe candles and the light of the fire\n\u2014Mimi took on a mysterious aspect.\nShe seemed less a girl, more of a\ngoddess.\nOlga had chosen a deep chair a\nlittle removed from the others. I\nthink she slept while I read. I\nam sure she was not, in the least\ninterested.\nStanding on the hearth-rug, with\na tall candle set on the mantel to\nlight my manuscript, I began to\nread- Now and then, when a sentence was obscure, I lifted the\nSkirts Reveal Stop yof New Gowns for Evening\nCerise taffeta evening gown with pleated ruffle trimming, wide skirt, new shoulder line.\nSKIRTS TELL tbe story of the\nnew evening gowns, says a well-\nknown national magazine.\nSkirts that billow and swirl in\ntulle or chiffon. Skirts that swish\nand purr in taffeta and metal. Skirts\nthat enhance the smallness of a neat\nlittle waist and bring out the beauty\nof a neckline and shoulders.\nTypical of the ncw formal frock\nis this dress of cerise taffeta, featured by this same magazine. It has\na neat, close-fitting bodice which\nbuttons closely down the front, a\nnew shoulder treatment and full\nskirt. Tiny pleated ruehings in swirl\ndesign decorate the skirt which has\nBy LISBETH\nthe popular up-in-front movement.\nThey also outline the decolletage\nand the shoulder pieces.\nQUEEN SETS STYLES\nQueen Elizabeth of England has,\nI am sure, been associated in most\nof our minds with a rather\u2014well,\nnot exactly meek, person\u2014but at\nleast one who adapts herself easily\nto others and amenable to those with\ndecided opinions.\nIt overjoys me, therefore, to see\nhow she is influencing British fashions, swinging them over to her\npreferences. The queen, a writer\ntells us. is not wearing clothes that\nare chosen for her by English dress\nmakers and which are strictly Pari\nsian. She insists that her clothes\nbe the type she knows she wears\nwell, usually British clothes. She\nprefers individuality to rubber1\nstamp garments, and is thus creating\na vogue for originality and distinction.\nAt the recent Court Ball held\nin Buckingham palace, she wore a\nsilver tissue gown from Hartnell,\nLondon dressmaker. It was made,\nas reported, with \"off-the-shoulder\nneckline bordered with silver lace\nand encrusted with synthetic dii\nmonds. The skirt was very full and\nfitted over the hips.\"\ncandle. I was perfectly conscious\nof the picturesquoness of my pose.\nI was conscious, too, of my skill as\na reader. I had inherited my\nfather's gifts of a good voice and\nan impassioned manner. I felt that\nwhen Mimi heard that speech in the\nIhird act she would see me with new\neyes. And the others would see\nme.\nI knew the speech almost by\nheart, and when 1 came to it, I gave\n)t with all the power and passion\nin mc. I was aware that. Stiles\nSanderson's gray eyes were shining, behind his glasses; that. Katherine Merrill was poised like a hawk\nready to pounce. Andy Fuller did\nnot. Ink at. me; he lay motionless on\ntho rug at. Mimi's feet. Bernice and\nLionel sat side by side on an oak\nsettle, and her hand was in his. And\nMimi, still a? a statue, her lips\nparted, leaned forward with intent\nface- -listening,\nWhen 1 finished, thnre was applaud, and Stiles Sanderson said'\n\"It is very well done\"\n'How arc you going to end it?\"\nBernice asked.\n\"Oh. of course the cobbler will\nget tho girl,\" Katherine Merrill\nsaid, in her clear, high voice.\n\"People must, have a happy ending''\nAnd then Mimi flung out; \"Oh,\nI don't want him to get her. It\nsounds all right, in a play, but do\nynu think a girl would be happy\nwithout any of lhe luxuries she\nlove?'' What, could he give her\u2014\nthat would make up for them?\"\nAnd I flung back at her; \"The\nquestion is, what could she give\nhim? Love doesn't, ask\u2014it. gives!\"\nAndy Fuller rat up. \"I agree\nwith Mimi- Your man is a cad; and\nhe is asking everything--\"\nWo faced each other -two tall,\nyoung cockerels. \"Real life isn't\nlike that.\" Andy went. en. \"Even\nif she had married him, do you\nthink she would have loved him\nwhen she had to wash his dishes\nand cook his food? The thing is\npreposterous!\"\nFor Ihe first time, hearing it set\nforth in his scornful voice, it seemed\npreposterous to mo.\n_\"! told Jerry it. wasn't real life.\"\nLionel said. \"but. it sterns to me\nprettv fine.\"\nStiles Sanderson agreed with him\nheirtiiy. \"It is fine. And what, after\nall. is real life\"\"\n\"Oh, things that, reallv happen,\nStiles,\" said Kathrrin. \"Ynu know\nthat\"\n'Things can happen In our souls\nas well as to our bodies,\" Stiles\nsaid, \"It. seems to me that Chandler has stripped his man and\nwoman of all that is tawdry. He\nhas found the truth.\"\nThpy discussed it holly after thaf,\nbut I took no part in it. I was\nfeeling a reaction from my high\nmoment. The cobbler's plea had\nfallen on dull cars.

She made a\nlittle impromptu speech, then went\naround and bought Christmas presents at the stalls. It was afterwards\nremarked she did not forget to give\npatronage where it encouraged fine\nartistic effort or might charitably do\nmost good.\nOne of her purchases was a gay\nfeather mount for a tailored hat\nmade by a woman who raises bright\nplumaged birds in an aviary for this\npurpose. She also bought two silver\nbrooches of old Scottish design, a\nfinely tooled leather handbag, handmade lace, a boudoir lamp made by\nan ex-soldier, scarves woven by\ncrippled girls,\nThe Exhibition of British Handicraft is as far removed from tha\nusual bazaar as an art exhibition.\nOnly the cream of the country's,\nhandiwork is admitted.

O.\nIn the old days nearly the first\nthing the doctor did after hearing\na patient's story was to say \"Let\nme see your tongue.\" Of late years,\nless and less stress is put upon this,\nbecause there are better ways of\nfinding out the functional state of\nthe stomach and bowels and nutritional diseases in which the tongue\nis changed. Perhaps, however, there\nwill be a regular revival in the\npractice of tongue examination because we are urged by several prominent men to pay more attention\nto it.\nOften a physician will simply look\nat the tongue and immediately fon-\nget what he has seen, or else make\nno mental notation of its significance. The Chinese have two words\nthat mean \"look\": one is simply \"to\nlook at\" and the other is \"to look\nat and see\" both.\n\"Raw, red tongue, raw, red gut\"\nwas an old saying. The white tongue\nwas looked on as a sure sign that\nthe stomach was out of order and\nlhat a dose of calomel was needed.\nThis, however, is not believed any\nmore, and it is known that many\npersons have a coated tongue in\nhealth, especially smokers.\nWHY FURRED TONGUE\nThe furred tongue is simply due\nto thickened epithelium covering\nthe papillae of the tongue, plus\nsome bacteria. The condition has\nbeen described as occurring in several stages: first, the dotted tongue;\nsecond, the coaled or loaded tongue:\nthird, the white strawberry tongue;\nnext, the furry or shaggy tongue, anc\nlast, the dry, brown, crusted tongue\nThe wearing of an upper plate\nafter a time frequently causes a\nsmooth, polished, bright red tongue\nwithout pain or inconvenience.\nPigmentation of the tongue is an\nuncommon abnormality, but in certain cases of Addison's disease, thl\ntongue may be covered with black\npatches.\nMedical text-books have fumblef\naround with the subject of burn\ning tongue but, this need nn longe:\nbe classified as a mystery. It. is du<\nin most instances to neuralgia fron\nbadly fitting dental plates.\nIf you like your linens scente\nand use scented soaps, store try]\nsoap, unwrapped, in the drawers ol\nthe linen closet.\ngo?'\n\"Oh.

It is for Christmas CHEER.\nIt is to take something of the true Christmas spirit into\nhomes which otherwise would lack all but the bare necessities of life. It is particularly for the women and children.\nThe earlier donations are sent in the better. Lists of\nthose who are to benefit from the fund are being made up.\nEvery man has at times in his mind the ideal of what\nhe should be, but is not. This ideal may be high and complete, or it may be quite low and insufficient; yet, in all\nmen that really seek to improve, it is better than the actual\ncharacter. Perhaps no one is so satisfied with himself that\nhe never wishes to be wiser, belter, and more holy\u2014Theo.\ndore Parker.\nCHINA IS RIGHT, JAPAN IS WRONG\nIt is true, as apologists for Japan are claiming, that\nChina got the jump on Japan in propaganda in connection\nwith the Sino-Japanese war. But it is also true, and this\nIs the important,point, that China has the better case.\nJapan has irritation at Chinese boycotts of Japanese\ngoods, for Chinese dislike of the Japanese and all their\nworks. But China has reasons, irrefutable reasons, for disliking the Japanese and defending themselves against Japanese inroads to China economically and politically.\nJapan accuses the Chinese of having started the present war by firing on Japanese soldiers who were \"innocently\" maneuvering on ChineFe territory. But what on\nearth right had the Japanese army in China? Why was it\nthere?\nThe truth is clear. All the world knows it. All the world\nwhich has any true conception of morality in international\naffairs, or desire that right should have some protection\nagainst mere might, knows that Japan has not a leg to\nstand on.\nJapan's position is simply that it wants Chinese trade,\nthat it wants Chinese territory, that it wants China's economic wealth in minerals, in coal, in power resources. It\ncovets China's property. Its moral position is that of the\nfootpad. i\nWanting all these things and having a bigger and\nbetter organized army than China, one of the greatest\nnavies in the world, an enormous air force and a people\nsuperstitiously ready to die at an emperor's nod, Japan has\ngone out to seize them\u2014to rob China.\nIn the process it matters not to Japan that many\nthousands of Chinese and Japanese should be killed, that\nmany hundreds of thousands of human beings should be\nhurled through no fault of their own into a condition of\nmisery for generations to come. Or even that it may bankrupt Japan financially as well as morally. It can go bankrupt if the worst comes to the worst; it believes its great\nindustries, its great corporations, can make recovery-\nout of the ravished resources of China.\nYes, Japan got into the propaganda field rather late,\nbut it never had a case that should appeal to world opinion.\nChina is right; Japan wrong.\nTwo things, well considered, would prevent many quarrels; first, to have it well ascertained whether we are not\ndisputing about terms, rather than things; and, secondly,\nto examine whether that on which we differ is worth contending.\u2014Colton.\nTO BRING MORE PEOPLE TO NELSON\nIt is a good idea of the Nelson Junior Board of Trade\nto give thought to measures for making Nelson still more\nattractive as a place of residence and as a place to which\npeople from other parts of the district and from more distant points will delight to come, for visits long or short.\nMany things count in making a city delightful to those\nwho reside in it. A good educational system, well-managed\ncivic finances so that taxes may not be excessive, adequate\npublic utility facilities, good streets, pure water and milk\nsupplies, good sanitation and health services. These are\nfundamental. Then there are permanent recreational facilities, such as those provided by our climate, our lakes and\nrivers, our mountains and mountain streams and glaciers;\nour golf and tennis clubs, our civic centre, otir recreation\ngrounds, our parks and bathing beaches.\nAgain there is commercialized recreation. Theatres,\nmusical organizations, boat and launch liveries, dances\u2014\nthe possibilities in this direction are about as endless as\nthey are important. Tourist attractions that come from\nNature will not alone do the work of building up Nelson's\npopulation.\nIndustries, too, come into the picture. Nelson has too\nfew. What is there, not now being produced in Nelson,\nwhich could be profitably manufactured here? Is there not\nsome product similar to that of the B.C. Veneer works,\nwhich out of a hitherto unused locally grown wood is manufacturing material which finds customers all over Canada?\nTo lake away the right of any citizen of Canada to\nappeal lo the courts of the hind against the exercise of\narbitrary power is opposed lo the whole spirit of our institutions and the liberties we cherish.\u2014Premier Mackenzie King.\nKELSON DAILY NEWS.

My impression is that\nthe weight of informed opinion\nholds that our hope lies in the scientific mobilization of our best intelligence, in health and education and\nthat in time will prevail and we\nwill then have true civilization,\nAnd therein lies the tragic failure\nof dictators. Out of their own heads,\nthey set up a ruthless state, and\nthen the state tries to make, a society. Whereas, the historic truth is\nthat it is society which makes the\nstate, and the state has no validity\nor justification unless it is so made.\nSociety, making a state may proceed scientifically, as are the Dionne\nmentors\u2014a state, trying to make a\nsociety, never can be scientific. Be\nthat as it may, I thoroughly disagree with those Dionne kiddies\nabout castor oil.\nCopyright 1937\nCcntral Press Canadian\nHumanity seen as likely to gain by lessons learned in scientific\nrearing of Dionne quintuplets\nMany centuries ago, there was a\nlucky baby who got a break like the\nDionne quintuplets, He was the\nonly baby of his time aad place\nwhose name was relayed down\nthrough history. He became a great\nleader not because he was the big\nstory of the day, but because of his\ngreat qualities. He was Moses.\nHe was found in a wilderness,\nlike the Dionnes. Pharaoh, like Dr.\nDafoe with the quints, immured him\nfrom the world and supplied the\nbest the age afforded to his nurture\nand education. The Israelites were\nslaves, but Pharaoh assigned Moses'\nsister, Miriam, to do nothing but\ncare for the baby. That was a big\nconcession in those days. It was an\nexciting story\u2014Pharaoh's daughter\nfinding the baby in the bull rushes.\nOld King Pharaoh must have\nthought Moses something quite unusual in the line of babies. He was.\nThis illusion to the Dionne darlings was suggested by a brief news\ndispatch, landing amid war and rumors of war. It reported that the\nquints lap up castor oil just like\nmilk. Nobody ever told them it was\nhard to take and hence it isn't. That\nnews to a psychologist is just as exciting as a four-alarm fire to a fireman.\nFAR-REACHING\nEXPERIMENT\nMore than 300 psychologists, doctors, specialists in child rearing, social scientists and what not join in\na voluntary committee to help Dr.\nDafoe anfl the three other guardians\nof the babies make the care and\neducation of the quints the most\nunique and possibly enlightening\nlaboratory experiment in all history.\nNot that they are making guinea\npigs o-f the babies. The only experiment they are trying is to give them\nthe absolute best that our civilization affords in cleanliness, diet, the\ncare and nurture of body and mind\nand all that goes into ideal environment as we conceive it.\nSo far the experiment has been a\nmagnificent success. The quints are\nhappy\u2014and most fairy godmothers\nstanding at their crib would have\ndealt them hapiness first of ali;\nthey are strong and robust and they\nhave beautiful little bodies; they\nhave normal intelligence, without\nprecocity; they are normally obstreperous and when they want something they go after it, but they aren't\nspoiled.\nThese frail, prematurely born babies, appearing in a winter hight in\na forlorn shack in a virtual wilderness \u2014 short-enders if any babies\never were\u2014have been given in a little more than three yeara a life\nequipment such as no little princess\never had in ages past. Science was\nhumbled by the miracle. It is responding by doing its utterly disinterested best to learn whether,\nthrough this dispensation, we may\ndiscover the educational clue to a\nbetter humanity.\nHAVE IDEAL SURROUNDINGS\nScientists watching the frolicing\nbabies make a lot out of that castor\noil business. There's a count for environment. Much of our fear and\nfoolishness may be just handed\ndown, and may have little or nothing' to do with innate human qualities. So far, environment has taken\nall the tricks in this tryout. The\nsuperior health and happiness of the\nquints, as contrasted with that of\nother children of the same region,\nhave been induced by an ideal environment.\nThe above contrast is not only observable, but it is a startling indictment of our civilization. In the\nnursery of the quints there is\nwarmth, light, cleanliness, color and\nmerriment and there is education\nscientifically adapted to the stimulation of the child mind. . A mile or\ntwo away and many miles away as\nwell, there are tumbledown, badly\nheated, badly ventilated old school\nhouses and homes with children suffering from neglected ailments, and\nimproper diet. The quints arc charu-\nbim and seraphim, compared to\nthese boys and girls who \"weren't\nlucky enough to arrive in fives.\nOld-fashioned people say that if\nyou bring up a child in cotton wool\nand then turn him loose in the world\nas it is, he will be a total loss. True\nas gospel.

That was the\nhighest percentage Gehringer has\nmade since be came into the league,\nand stands up well with his year's\nrecord as leading hitter of the circuit.

Other clubs\nhave won It, but through the\nyears, Smoke Eaters have led.\nToo, the opposition In this province Is not much when compared\nto other provinces. By that we\nmean there are far fewer teams\nwhich have to battle it out for supremacy, to reach the provincial\ntop spot-\nThat means that a puckster who\ncan make a berth on the Trail\nSmoke Eaters has a better chance\nof getting into the Allan cup finals\nthan he would have on a team in\nsome town on the prairies. Mind\nyou, more frequently prairie teams\ngo farther, or have done so in the\npast, than B.C. teams, but the road\nto the provincial championship of\na prairie province is longer.\nSo, for this reason mainly, we\nare told, prairie hockey players who\nget an offer to come to Trail, jump\nat it.\nBut they soon express regret at\nhaving come to Trail.\nElmer (Pipe) Piper, the Trail\nSmoke Eaters mentor, doesn't\nthink it so \"hot\" in Trail. For one\nthing, he tells us, that he's working In a lumber yard.\nIt is obvious that Trail has material on its rosier that is up in\nthat stratum of which all clubs take\nnotice. It is so that the residence\nrule does not permit them to play\nelsewhere his season, but if Trail\nhas a team lhat goes places, it will\nbe even more difficult to keep the\nboys here next season.\nNorth Battleford, Sask., had an\nAllan cup team last winter.

Those boxei aren't at\nall capable of that. Seats muit be\nsituated In the boxes to that\nplayen may watch the progren\nof the game and rest at the lame\ntime.\"\n...\nWe hear the hockey club wants\na penally box with a door leading\nto the ice, built in the Trail rink.\nAt present there is no penalty box.\nPlayers are put into their own box\nwhen penalized, which makes it\nhard for a coach to tell who's who,\n...\n\"We must give the rink management credit for one thing, and that\nis the announcing system. Fans and\nthe press appreciate official announcement of the scorer and those\nwho assist and the times goals are\nscored. Too, the .announcement of\nplayers' names, positions and numbers at the start of the game is\nquite an innovation in these parts.\nEddie Murdoch makes a pretty good\njob at announcing, too.\nLawi of ice hockey ai adopted\nby the Canadian Amateur Hockey\nassociation (revised to October,\n1937), continued:\n\"No. 2. Tlie rink shall be. as\nnearly as possible, 200 feet in length\nby 85 feet in width and shall be\nsurrounded by a wall or fence of\nwood, not more than four feet in\nheight and not less than three and\na half feet measured from the surface of the ice. The fence shall be\nconstructed in such a manner that\nits surface shall be of uniform color, preferably white, and shall be\nfree of any obstruction or object\nthat may cause injury.\n\"No. 3. Ten feet from each end\nof the rink and in the centre of a\nline drawn across yie width of the\nice, a regulation goal post and net\nshall be set in such a manner that\nit cannot be moved. The goal posts\nshall be of approved material four\nfeet in height (measured from the\nsurface of the ice) and set six feet\napart (measured from the inside of\nthe posts). A cross-bar of the same\nmaterial as the goal posts shall extend from the top of one goal post\nto the top of the other. Between\nthe goal posts on the ice shall be\nmarked a red line, called the 'goal\nline', the width of the diameter\nof the goal posts. The goals shall\nbo set so that the 'goal line' is\nten feet out from the end of the\nrink.\n\"Each goal shall be provided\nwith a net of approved design.\nKIMBERLEY, B. C, Dec. 19-\nBetter condition and more finish\naround the nets gave the fast-skating Lethbridge team a smart 7-3\nwin over Kimberley Dynamiters in\nthe opening game of the Kootenay\nHockey league on Kimberley ice on\nSaturday. Penalties also had a lot\nto do with the result as the Dynamiters made eight trips to cooler\ncompared to three for the Leafs.\nThree Lethbridge goals came in less\ntha nthree minutes as two Dynamiters lanquished in the cooler.\nSixteen hundred fams jammed the\narena to greet the teams and they\nwere treated lo a fast game which\nsaw the better team win on the\nnight's play. For 15 minutes of the\nmiddle period and 10 minutes of the\nfinal the Dynamiters looked like the\nsquad of old as they hemmed the\nLeafs in their own territory and\npeppered Young from all angles.\nHowever their finish was not good\nand they missed the mark on many\nchances.\nThe visitors scored the only goal\nof the first period after four minutes of play as Ken Stewart took a\nrebound off the boards to beat Horn-\nquist cleanly. The visitors were two\nup after just one minute's play in\nthe second period Ben Hayes breaking through cleanly to score from\nclose in. Les Christensen and Bob\nKirkpatrick combined beautifully lo\nput Lethbridge three up five minutes later.\nALL EVEN\nFacing a three-goal deficit seemed to waken the Dynamiters up\nand they settled down to play real\nhockey. Ralph Redding from Pratt\nand \"Red\" Goble from Burnett reduced the lead before the period\nended. The Dynamiters evened it\nup midway through the final period, Chris Sorenson tapping in a\nperfect pass from Wilson.\nThen condition began to tell and\npenalties added their toll. Lethbridge\nran in four markers in quick succession with Jimmie Mclndoe (21,\nJohnny Ursaki and Kirkpatrick doing the sniping.\nLethbridge showed a fast-skating, hard-checking aggregation lhat\nwill make all teams in the loop step\nif their play on Saturday is any indication. While the game was on\nthe whole clean, checking was hard\nand sticks were carried rather high\nat times, but no serious arguments\nensued.\nThe teams\u2014\nLethbridge \u2014 Young; Onufry-\nchuk, Cromier and Stewart; Kirkpatrick, Mclndoe, Ursaki, Christen-\nson.

Dec. 19 (CP Cable)-\nScottish football league schedule-\nmakers are\u2014like the weather\u2014in a\nfog. Their weekly rounds of matches\nthe past two Saturdays have been\nlaid low by the vagaries of the\nweatherman\u2014and all this with the\ncrowded year-end program in the\noffing.\nThe weatherman went on the\n\"rampage\" a week ago when the\ncountry's heaviest snowfall in years\n\u2014plus sprinkling of fog in the country\u2014cancelled hostilities in three of\n10 major-division games and eight\nof the nine minor-loop matches.\nOn Saturday, snow and frosl-\nbound grounds kept players on\nthe sidelines in seven billed first-\ndivision battles and five second-\nleague contests. With 26 minutes\nleft to play in the Dundee-Ayr\nUnited tangle on the former's\nground, the referee stopped play\nowing to condition of tlie turf. St.\nBernards and Montrose, second div\nision clubs, were forced to stop\nafter six minutes of the second period.\nMany clubs wero set to play off\ntheir matches despite the snow and\nfrost but a den.se fog descended,\nmaking play impossible.\nWEEK-DAY GAMES\nOld-timers say it is the worst\nholdup in 25 years \u2014 both in ft\n\"weather\" and financial way. Many\ncontests must now be played during\nthe week which will considerably\ndeercase gate receipts.\nA shuffling of leading clubs resulted out of the two major circuit matches finished. Celtic, in a\nthird place tie with Motherwell,\nwent to Edinburgh and blanked Hibernians 3-0. The victory hoisted ths\nCelts over Glascow Rangers and\ntwo points from Hearts.\nHeld to a 3-3 deadlock at Arbroath, Aberdeen took the sixth\nposition on the championship standing, four points behind Falkirk and\nnine back from Hearts.\n<3^^^TCH WHISKY\n j^i., ,;\n\/ wmmi'\nvM'\nBOTTLED IN\nSCOTLAND\nThis advertisement is not published by the\nLiquor Control Board or by the Government of British Columbia.\n1\n-\n_^_MB_M_M\n mmmmmmm.\nNELSON DAILY NEW8.
