The week ending today was Can-

ada's Book Week, instituted by the Canadian Authors’ Association. an

annual effort to stimulate love of ed States is taking place at a rate reading and especially of Canadian

literature.

iCarved in the oak of a fireplace in an old lEuglisli country home is the following motto: small house and a have, a books."

It is not within the reach of all, especially in cities, to have alsrgc garden, or evcn a small one. though even in cities there might be more flower beds, more ‘beauty spots, even window gardens on n small scale. But ‘books are within reach of all and ‘we cannot have too many oi them. The home well supplied with books, ibooks worth while, is the cultured home. Th0 character of the home. of its pur- ents, of its children. and of its friends may be read in its hooks. And the success and happiness of men and women are interwoven with the books oi their childhood home.

Canada, although young in coni- parison with the historic nations of the old world, possesses a history that is full of romance, adventure and heroism not surpassed in any nation, old or new. The trail that loads through Confederation days, back through "British. French and indian days. is lined on all sides with stirring and diversified history with which every Canadian should be acquainted and without some knowledg} of which no one can ‘be a real Canadian or possess ii real

Per capita use of powcr in Canada is already 2.8 times as large as that in the United States, and at the present rate of development it will not ‘be long be- forc Canadians will zbo using three times as much electric power per person as is being used in the Un- ited States.

There is a strenuous call for a higher duty on American magazines coming into Canada and the matter was argued pro and con before the Tariff Board at Ottawa on Thursday last. The Canadian magazine pub- lishers, ten or twelve in all, are in- terested directly and other manu- facturing interests indirectly in the result. lt is estimated that in Can- ada there are 2,000,000 readers of American magazines and these pub- lications contain advertisements on millions o1’ itheir pages ‘which lead to the sale in ICanada-of ‘many mil- lion dollars worth of American goods t-hat compete unfairly with our own in our home market.

‘On the other hand the vast num- ber of Canadian readers of import- ed magazines, foreseelng that heav- ier duties would inevitably increase the cost of the imported reading matter, are protesting strongly against the proposed duties. The 'l‘arifl’ Board may or may not en- dorse the proposed duties which can only be made effective by the action of Parliament.

As you know an enlarged thyroid gland or goitro makes the processes of the body work faster, sometimes from-fifteen to forty or more per cent above the normal reqll-"Q" merits.

The first thing noticeable about the X ray treatment is that this extra work is reduced in amount. and the body gains just that much in weight and strength.

The X ray apparently stops the increase in the number of cells of the thyroid gland. and so less of the material that stimulates ‘the lbody processes is manufactured. This is practically the same effect that the X ray has on cancer that, can be reached by this form of treatment. it would seem that the medical ipro- fession have now got goitre where the various types are not only rec- ognized, ‘but the necessary treat- mentis available. i
