Ten years ago Bishop Field 00l- llse students 1ed_ by J. Watson, how a Rhodes Scholar. debated the [allowing subject: “That for a per- iod of at least ten years it would be to the advantage of Newfound- land to give the management of its affairs into the hands of a commission, half of which should be appointed by the Britsh Gov- ernment and the other half elected in Newfoundland." ‘ The Amulree commission during its recent survey found “the pres- rnt burden oi public debt is wholly bcyvlld the OWN-it"s capacity, and it ls essential that 1t should Dc llzhtstied if the Island is to be caved’ Ifom the imminent danger of financial collapse.“ - In the St. Johns Telegram of l0 Warsuigo supporters of the affirm- atlviein the Bshop Field College debate were reported arguing as follows: "Taxation is now so heavy that the head of the average middle-class family cannot make both ends meet. Much of this tax- ation is due to the large amount of interest thaat has to be pad on t borrowings. This tends to in- rather than to decrease." Arrangement About Custody Of Children Not Irrevocable NEW YORK, Jan. lk-Asserting dint the law of United States recog- nizes no “irrevocable arrangement" with regard to the custody oi chil- dren, Supreme Court Justice Wli~ liam T. Collins yesterday awarded fll-‘itwdy oi John and Michael dc Ruyter to their mother, Mrs. Adolph Spreckles of San Francisco. The boys are two and four years old. They have been in the care of their father, Jack De Ruytcr, Jr., since he and the present Mrs. Sprectles were divorced in i932. Sprbcklss, a western sugar mag- nate, told Justice Collins he wanted the children and said he thought his yearly income oi $60,000 ample for their care. “The mother wants hcr children; the children need a mother." said Justice Collins in his decision. "Both children require medical at- tention: one oi them is highly nervws. and the father seemingly is unable to cope with him. "The children lack that nurture which only a devoted mother can rum)!!- “Althpugh there was a separation agreement which gave the father custody." the decision continued. "this-is not decisive oi the capital Issue which the proceeding pre- aents." Bats Source 0f Tropic Scourge PIE-T OI‘ QHAIN, Tflnldld, Jan. its battle FOB- IIUITBEB PRODUCE MONIRiR-EAL, Que" Jan.

It has taken a considerable time to introduce this typo of footwear among the Lsheimm oi- Iceland and l. was long after rubber boots bscame popular in Canada that. the ei- fort was made, according to the In- dustrial Department oi the Can- adian National Railways.

The greatest de- marld in respect oi rubber boots is for those of knee height to which the Ioelandcr adds a hip top which he makes from red rubber import- ed in rolls and out to suitable shape. That the old beLef that leather provided a. better foothold on the decks oi ships is about ov- ercome is evidenced by the fact that there is no demand for boots with special soles or other unusual features.

Ragwort In The Empire Ragwcrt is a noxious weed which is a serious menace to eco- nomic farming in the Highlands oi Scotland and also in New Zealand in the King County of North ls- land. It. is the cause oi a curious and fatal disease of the livcr ill cattle. In New Zealand it is being fought with the larva of the Cin- nabar moth (imported from Eng- land) and by the use of sodium chlorate In Canada the weed was introduced from Europe and is found in the Picteu and Antigon- iah counties of Nova Scotla and in parts of P. E. I. It has also been reported from Quebec and somc parts of Ontario. In Canada its seeds are seldom found in commer- cial samples of grain and the weed L: eradicated by rotation of crops and the close cutting of pastures 1:, i; a perennial with very showy, golden-yellow flowers. Dressed Ducklmgs In order no have dressed ducklings appear to the best advantage and also w ensure their iieephs quel- ities as long as P06311719. it is im- portant that they should have no feed in their crops when they are killed. This means that if they are to be killed in the morning, which is the usual practice on comm al duck farms, the duckllngs shoul be fed for the last. time the prev§oul night. Ii, however, they are to be killed in the afternoon. they can b9 ferl lightly in the morning. The regulations regarding all dressed they shall have been starved for suflicent length of time before being killed to empty crops and in- testines, during which time they should have access to clean drink- ing water.

Constipation may be due to acme abnormal condition which requires medical care for its correction. Most cases of constipation grow out of rather habits of living, so moat case: can be corrected by attention to liabitl. ‘Do do so rcquirs per- acvcnnce, but it will oonect constipation. The most important point is re- gularity oi habit. A regular time ahould be selected. A half-hour after eating is suggested, as the taking oi food aerves u a natural stimulus to the digestive tract. Without fail, whether or not an urge ia felt, the toilet should be visited at this fixed time. Ii this ia persisted in, than a regular habit is developed. and a bowel move- ment will taka place at that time Most people do not drink suffic- ient water. The anwunt of water required dspana upon occupatin and season, for thus factor: de- termine the amount of water lmt by the body through perspiration. A glaaa or two of water upon rising and between meals will help to overcome constipation. For many rec-Iona, green vege- table: and fresh fruits should be included in the diet each day- They provide bulk in the diet and so pro- mote intestinal activity. There are cases, with an irritable bowel. and, in any case, the roughage idea should not bs overdone. Along with regularity of tiolet habit and proper diet must p ex- ercise. Regular daily nebulae which will bring the large muacla: of the body into action is most dadrable. A simple way to secure such exer- ciaeiatowalkoutofdoorcforan hour daily. One word of warning fa added. Just a: loong as lamtivea or enem- u are used, constipation will per- sist. The bowel relies upon these as a crutch, and so natural elimin- ation is not seem-ed. Simple, isn't itf-regularity oi to overcome constipation. Consti- habim, sensible diets and exercise paticn to physical dis- orders, causes headachea, lowers efficiency and favor: fatigue; it is altogether an undesirable condi- tion.
