The 20-jewelled watch gained one minute per hour on regular time, while the 10-jewelled watch lost two minutes per hour on regular time. Today, glancing at the watches, Russ saw that the 20-jewelled one in- dicated exactly 8 o'clock, and the 10-jewelled one exactly 7 o'clock. At what time did he start the two watches? PROBLEM NO. 16 A youngster in town tested out his skating ability on the slippery road, and found that with the wind he could cover a mile in three min- utes, but against the wind it took him four minutes, so he figured out how fast he could cover the mile if there was no wind. What's your answer? PROBLEM NO. 18 1 planning is a secret but that there is | toria, B.C., Igor Gorin, well to attend to their own knitting because the same American programs are of the popular type, top notchers, and they pay their way. The artists on these programs are professional ones, trained in radio technique and give us something that sounds much better than the punk amateur pro- grams that clutter up the air lanes here. And in all fairness to the amateurs--they try--but they are amateurs and should be trained in radio work and in all probability they would become first rate radio entertainers. In the first place, to train this horde of Canadian talent would re- quire considerable money and it would take some money to keep them in Canada once they were trained. One has only to listen to Deanna Dur- bin, Bobby Breen and a few other Canadian youngsters that had to go to the U.S.A. in order to be recog- nized and again to receive pay for their radio work. The point is that with this large amount of American money coming into the coffers of the C.B.C. Canadian talent can be given a helping hand and so politicians-- lay off. Lay off this nonsensical talk about the American programs. But continue to investigate the alleged fleecing of Canadian radio owners by the patent pool of Canadian manu- facturers who soak the public for patents taken out in Canada and sup- plied to the public at iniquitous cost. Again we read that Bill Herridge is stumping the country fg try and We have as yet little reason to know how widely thees reviews have been used by the member-newspapers, or whether they have been favourably received or not. written with gratifying enthusiasm; others have demurred on the ground that it seemed like free advertising | for the pubilshers. But it would have | been strange if we had reviewed these books and kept the names of the publishers a dark secret! We have also been often esoteric in our choice of books, deliberately select- ing books for mention which, we felt | sure, would not probably be review- Some editors haved ed in other journals and: because they fitted into the exposition of the | general situation we were treating, | although we knew perfectly well | that few of the books would ever be | sold just because we mentioned | them. A reviewer can take his job seriously or he can act primarily as a sales-agent. We have tried to take our job seriously. So much by way of defence! It has not always been easy in the | course of a busy life to take the] time to read the books, even less easy to go to the trouble of raview | ing ttem. But if 'the readers have | found these articles of some interest we are satisfied and shall feel that love's labours have not been lost. We should, however, be glad to hear directly from editors or readers whether they wish us to continue these dissertations or not. If the editors do not wish to use them or ,the reader to read them, we shail «gladly turn to some more remunera- tive form of enterprise. But if they have found them stimulating or even interesting, they might com- municate directly with the reviewer whose address: is 37 Bloor Street West, Toronto. Criticisms and sug- gestions would also be appreciated. reorganize the Conservative party It seems to be common knowledge' that Mr. Herridge, who is Mr. Ben- nett's brother-in-law, would like to be the next Conservative leader in. the Dominion house. Just what the | Conservative board of strategy is something brewing cannot be denied, and it is high time as witness the number of Conservatives in the Op-) position----88 members--that is the Official Opposition. And British Columbia has been'! passing laws for 67 years and all of} them are illegal and therein lies & story. ! When B.C. entered Confederation in 1871 all laws passed by the Legislature had been assented to in the name of the reigning King and Queen. It has now been discovered that at the end of each session the clerk of the Legislature should sol- emnly intone the words, "In the Go- vernor-General's name His Honor the Lieutenant-Governor doth assent to these bills." And so at the mnextj session, 67 years of illegal Taws will become legal all at one time and that constitutes a record of law- making. : And here's a headline that de- clares Canadians are strong on pa- triotism but weak on music.

CANADIAN PURCHASES CAN BE USED TO HELP UNEMPLOYED "Canadian men, in their pur- chases, can play a notable part in helping to increase employment in Canada by insisting on buying Cana- dian merchandise at all times in preference to that which is import ed, provided the price and quality are satisfactory." | This statement formed the pre- lude to an announcement today by the National Produced in Canada Association showing the extent of 'mports used chiefly by men and the equivalent - of, or substitutes for which, in many cases, can be obtain- from home sources. ; Quoting official government fi- gures of imports for the year end ing October, 1987, the Association suggested that, in many categories at least Canadian men could do a eoreat deal to provide more emplioy- ment by purchasing items such as those which are produced or made in ne Canada, tobaccos, cut flowers, plants and trees, tweeds, worsteds, serges, sporting goods, fishing tackle and books.

Why Edward Went : ~The Duke of Windsor may well pray to be saved from his frieuds. An Englishman, a former London staff correspondent of the New| YORK HERALD TRIBUNE, has written a book for 'publization in the United Statés--he could not publisa it in England--in the hope that the information he offers may find its way back to his own country. He comes to the defence of ex-King Ed- ward VIII against the combination of clique and church which seems 10} have forced the abdication, and he gets quite nasty about the whole situation at times. Frankly, we see no reason for raking over the epi- sode of December 1936, once again, and we have promised ourselves that this will be the last Edward book we shall read for some time. Indeed there are elements in the book which are perilously close to sedi- tion, and which will not help the cause of the Windsors at all--es- pecially in Canada. The abdication, however regrettable, was necessary, and all the real friends of the for- mer King will not want to make his position any more difficult' by throwing dust in the air. Let us think rather of Edward VIII as he gave his last farewell address to the Empire and when he reached a rare elevation of nobility and sincerity, nd to him no dis-service by attuck- ing those who had equal resmonsi- bilities to fulfil and who fulfilled them. We ignore Mr. Wells' attack on the church because his quotations | from the book on "Marriage" bY Leon Blum for the translation of which into English he is respon- sible, and his general discussion on marriage reveal a man whose stan- dards of marriage are, it must be said, somewhat 'fluid' and because his views on the relation of religion to the state are, despite their ve- hemence, not characterized by any remarkable spiritual insight into the meaning of 'culture'. We mention only his defence of the former King against the charge that he was a fascist. This charge, is in our opinion, of no importance whatever and might never have gained headway had it not been for tte behaviour of men like Sir Os- wald Moseley who can always he trusted to do the 'wrong thing, and the virulence of certain English | journalists who were desperately op- | posed to the "fatuous" foreign poli- cies of Anthony Eden and in favour of a rapprochement with Germany and Italy. Mr. Wells implies that just as Edward VII, the so-calied Pacemaker, sought a realignment of Europe and created the Triple En- tente contrary to the existine Bri- tish policy, so tis grandson was op- nosed to the policy of his govern- ment and sought to establish -tter relations with Central IT ropean | countries. Tn this. he gaz clirue that supported Eden an 0p- | portunity to force him out. This mav or m2v not - have heen | an immortant factor in the ros» Tent | we do not need to dig so deep in| political intrigue to uncover facts Tig {:defy his ministers | dictatorial rule on the basis ef his he | is which lie on the surface. And if so, then there is only one answer neea- ful. The poiley of the British gov- ernment at this time was so des- perately tortuous and consisted in such dexterous efforts to ride se- veral horses at once that it seems be opposed to any monarch who tried to make friends with any country! We dare say that Edward VIII was trying to conciliate certain European countries which had grown distrustful of Britain, and we grave- ly doubt if such a step would have been criticized by his ministers. What might have happened had his abdication not have been necessariy no one can tell and the less said about it, the better. But we do not believe that Edward VIII was so foolish as to believe that he could and establish a own personal hold on the popular imagination. 'He probably did not | intend to be a mere figurehead, he did unodubtedly take his royal tasks seriously and sought to render them efficiently, but he must have known the nature and strength of British respect for Parliament. The accu- sation that he was a Fascist is so nonsensical that it need not be ta- ken seriously. Germany: The Last Four Years THE BANKER in its issue of February, 1937, published an analy- sis of the economic and social situ- ation in Germany by one who calls him Germanicus. He claimed that Germany had not achieved what she claimed to have achieved, and that the internal condition of the rcoun- try, especially her agricultural pro- duction, was menacing. He also sub- mitted the alleged budgets of Herr Schacht to some very incisive ana'y- sis. > HEALY A HEALTH SERVICE OF THE CANADIAN MEDICAL 1. ASSOCIATION AND LIFE Msurance COMPANIES !N GANADA TONSILS AND ADENOIDS At the back of the mouth, on either side of the palate, are the tonsils; above and at the back of the nose, the adenoids are placed. The tonsils and adenoids are alike in that they are lymphatic glands, and all lymphatic glands are a first line of defence or barrier against germs which attempt to gain en- trance into the body. Enlargement of the tonsils and adenoids shows that germs have in- vaded theee glands, and that, as a result, the glands have become en- larged in their effort to deal with the invaders. If the glands suéceed in this, then they return to their normal size and state. If, however. they are not wholly successful, the gland remains enlarged, and, in- stead of being a barrier to germs, it becomes a focus of germ life, and there is a possibility that the infeec- tion will spread to the surrounding parts. Enlarged . tonsils and adenoids may do harm simply through me- chanical obstruction apd pressure. The entrance of the tube draining the middle ear into the throat may be blocked and so cause deafness. Mouth-breathing occurs when ade- noids block the normal air-way of te nose, and the conditions may lead to deformity of the teeth, mouth and nose. If the tomsils also are greatly enlarged, breathing may be so difficult as to produce defor- mity of the chest. {Much more serious fects of infected tonsils and ade- noids. Middle ear disease. sinus disease, chronic colds, sore throats, may follow the spread of the infec- tion to the adjacent parts, and these in turn may proceed to mastoid di- sease and meningitis. Such foci of infection as diseased tonsils and adenoids injure the general health; are the ill ef- the «child may fail to grow normally, | and he may be underweight, pale, listless and easily tired. The decision as to whether or not tonsils and adenoids are so enlarged or diseased as to reduire to be re- moved should be made by the doc- tor w'o examines the child and studiies his history. There is no doubit that diseased tonsils should be removed. and this before they have: done any harm. There are few things which are more> beneficial - to a child's tealth than. the removz] of tonsils and ade- n~its. when their removal is indicat- ed. Not only does this procedure correct many cases of moutn- breathing, discharging ears, deaf- ness, sore throats and coughs, but 1t is a real preventive measure for rheumatic fever if removal is car ried out before the first attack. This last means the prevention of 'heart seaise which commonly follows on rheumatic fever.
