during the early days Of prepara-

and excitement such Rs marked the
mobilization Of the First Canadian
Contingent which In the fall Of 1914
set forth from Canada on that great
adventure which was TO continue
until 1918.
The real enthusiasm was there,
nevertheless, and those eyewitnesses
who were privileged to see the de.
parture Of units from the cities and
towns and the eventual sailing Of
the flrst contingent from Halifax,
can testify that the men Of 1889 are

Representatives of a group of in

Testifying before a Senate bank

It was disclosed that Johnny has
been denoted a full year in school

Look at my pretty new dress and capel" cries this little mite as she proudly shows off her new outfit. No wonder she's so happy, for Claire Tildens Pattern 103 is gay and pret- ty as the first spring crocus. The princesS-line frock is easy for mother to stitch up in jiffy, and the back panel lends a surprise note. It's gathered just below a waist-seam making pert bustle- effect. Double panels in front give extra skirt flare and would look sweet trimmed with ribbon bows at the waist. The very short puffed sleeves and the square neckline may be softly lace edged. As for the military-trim cape, its panelled style is quick to sew too. Notice the gathered, perky shoulders. The use full openings for tiny hands are simple to make right in the seams. The cape is unlined for both spring and summer comfort. And choose a faille or bengaline for dress-up wear; a flannel for everyday. You might even make an extra cape in water-resistant fabric for smart rainy-day wear.
 Pattern 103 is cut in children's sizes, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12. Size 6, dress, requires 1 3-4 yards 35 inch fabric and 1 7-8 yards lace edging; cape 1 1-2 yards 54 inch fabric.

fatigue and exhaustion, modelled by Mckenzie from life will be worth your while.
 In Dr. Osler's era getting second wind was conceived to be a mecharl- ical recovery from acute dilatation of the right side of the heart, that is, the right ventricle which pumps the blood as 1t returns from the veins into the lungs for unloading carbon dioxide and taking on fresh oxygen. With any sudden sustain ed exertion the right side of the heart becomes temporarily over- filled with venous blood and re- quires little time to react to the demand for more oxygen.

ing to get second wind when he needs 1t.
 Mckenzie, in his classic work on Exercise in Education and Medi- cine" Saunders, '09), said second wind is "readjustment of elimina- tion to the increased production of waste" by which the runner exper- fences a sudden relief from the agony of breathlessness. Mov- ments of the belly and of course the diaphragm are amplified, and ventilation of the lungs Is im- proved. The heart dilates or ex- bands in capacity, steadies down to perform its increased task. A mile runner should get second wind in the third quarter or about three minutes after the start.

GETTING SECOND WIND

GETTING SECOND WIND
 No doubt 1t has been a long time since the reader has experienced the phenomenon of second wind. Even the younger generation these days hardly knows what 1t means.
 As I remember we Chapel Street angels used to get second wind, on the way to attend @ fire in the low CT environs of Canandaigua where they managed to tip over the lamp pretty regularly at the continuation of the brawl, along between the Hubbell law office and the south- ernmost iron deer on the McKech- nie lawn.
 I wish now that we were talking about something else, for when it comes right down to 1t I'm afraid I can't explain second wind in lang uage simple enough for the untu- tored lawman to misunderstood. After all, who am to tackle a mystery that baffles doctors and physiologists who, I suppose, have given as much thought to the mat ter as I have?
 Prof. J. $. Haldane, dlStlngulShcd British physiologist, discreetly avoids the subject altogether in his book Respiration" (Yale Univer- sity Press, '35). Howell ignors it in his famous Textbook of Physio- logy" Saunders, '33). Wright men tions it in his Applied Physiology" (Oxford University Press, '34) that oxygen lack stimulates breathing and hurries on to surer ground.
 Second wind, said Brady ("Per- sonal Health," Saunders, now thank goodness, out of print), is a question of well developed cardiac reserve power and then tried to compare the shortness of breath on slight exertion, in valvular leak age, myocardial degeneration, etc., with failure of normal the individ- ual with neglected physical train
