THE INEXCuSABIE LIE".

Harold Peat, internationally known
 Private Peat is young Canadian
 ho brings to the people at Chantau- "ua his remarkable lecture "The ln- Ncusable Lie" stirring appeal for international understanding peace and lurmony among the natons.
 Although having conspicuonsly

 In his frank, challenging address, The Inexcusahle Lic," Private Pete brings out the facts that from child's earliest period Of perception and un- derstanding he is taught, quite un- consciously by his elders, to fight Many of his paNhings and his child ish games foster tho love of battle. School books, and other books of childhood glorify war, dwell at length on its thrills and conqnes,s. bat show none of its terrible consequences, Pri- ,ate Peat's plea 10 the people is SO 10 present history during the impress sionable years of childhood and youth that war will he stripped of its illn- sions, and national animosities Nill be averted. ln this manner only can NO prepare the way for better interna- tional relations and more stable peace, he states.

II. Drysdale of Cleveland, in an address today before the American Medical Association.
 Dr. Drysdale's subject was how a man at the apex or his achievements may avoid the penalty of years of high pressure living and escape such ailments as apopleXy. Playing golf was among those having place tn the scheme Of old age hygiene.
 The 'frenzied finance habit, which will not allow a patient 10 relax and forget his responsibilities when neces- ssry, can be blamed for many serious Illnesses and fatalities" said the doc tor. The national sin of uNcrealing. and especially Of meat, is one Of the heavy burdens an elderly man asks his body 10 bear. Alcohol. taken be fore meals is one Of tho causes of oNereatine. The advent of nrohibi- tion. with the attendant disappear Snce Of the chronic alcoholic, Sill do much to lower the death rate from arteriosoelerosis.
