ANOTHER HOPE BLASTED
— The boozy-woozvs and their seconds talk about Can-

so sure of it that they almost smell and taste it. They
think it, cherish the thought and almost live it. - .
But here is disappointment -and near despair. A can-
gregsiona, committee has jnst completed investigation of
the Ontario government’s booze plan and here is the re
port of the chairman Hon. Grant,M. Hudson:
“ We asked whether 4.4 beer bad satisfied those who
wanteil a stronger alcoholic beverage than the old 2.5
beer. We were told that after a trial of it the people turn-
ed away from it.’’
“ Our next question was whether the sale of 4.4 beer
had decreased the sale of Itoofleg liquor. The universal
reply was that it had increased rather, than decreased it.
Also we inquired whether the l»eer had weaned the drinker
*>f hard liquor to the mild beverage, and we ¿earned that I
it had not. In fact, virtually every person we interviewed
declared th e’whole system most unsatisfactory.”

“ IB THAT SO?”
The best athletes live in eopl climates.” This asser
tion is made by Guillermo Hoxmnrk of the Buenos Aires
weather bureau, following a study of records in the inter
national Olympic games.
So he masses his statistics and gives Norway first place,
Finland second place and the United States thirteenth
hole. His method is to take the number of |x>ints won by
any country along with the population and thence deduce
the rank. He seems to find that the rank coincides with
the thermometer.
He fails to consider the distance traveled. He makes
no allowance for any peculiar conditions o f times and
methods of selection. Like most statistics his findings are
somewhat debatable.
His principle seems to be that soft countries make
soft men, ..This nmkva a gvud aplioriam; but the queatiwi

O f course you have always appreciated the ad

it means no more fuel to carry; no m ore ashes to

in g heat; economical because itis turned on when
you need i t — not before; turned off w hen you’ re
th ro u g h — not later.
But perhaps you would like to k n o w exactly w hat
