Physiologists tell us the most important point about air and health is the amount of cooling effect the air exerts upon the human body. The skin of the face, neck and upper chest is very sensitive to this cooling effect. The benefit of sun treatment in the healing of tuberculosis and other-diseases is now reported to result In great part from the tanning of the skin. The tanning makes it possible for people to remain naked exposed to the cooling air for longer periods. The cooling demands greater provision of heat' in the body arid more food has to be digested to form fuel. People digest 50 per cent more LIMIT TO HOMEWORK. . . aeT1 i. - mere are very lew parents of, pupils who ask that their cniuiren oe not given homework. There, are many parents who want homework given their children, and some of them ask for more of it than 1t is usual to give." This is the opinion of Dr. C. C. Goldring. principal of Earl Beatty School and president of the Toronto Public School Principals' Association, in comment on the action of the board of education in raising the maximum of homework from 20 to 30 minutes for third class pupils, and from 30 to CO minutes for fourth book children. "There is not much danger of harm being done by an hour's homework," said Dr. Goldring, "but I think an hour is enough. Of course, if the child is delicate or there are special reasons against so much homewbrk, the 'principal or teachers will use discretion." Parents in some homes, says this principal, ask that their children be given no home work because they have the radio and want to enjoy it. WORSE THINGS THAN POVERTY. Three university students in the United States, all young men and sons of wealthy parents, tommitted suicide at the New Tear becausethcy were "tired of life." .The tragedies were evidently not related in any way, and a "suicide pact" has not been suggested. In Ihe go-as-you-please conditions of life in great U.S, Universities, these boys had apparently run the whole gamut of pleasurable c-insation. Life for them was a squeezed lemon and they saw no reason why they should continue an existence that had lost zest Arguing from their viewpoint they were logical; unless they could change the viewpoint. Why should a thrill-chaser continue to live when there are no more thrills to chase? The real tragedy In each case was not that a purposeless life was ended, but that life was purposeless. Environment and choice had made them moths, whose only aim was to flutter in the social whirl or the realms of speculation. What does it matter when the moth flutters into the flame? Had these boys been sons of poor men, obliged to earn a living and scramble for an education, they would in all probability be alive today, relishing existence in a world filled with opportunities for happiness, and preparing themselves to do some useful work in their day and generation. Not many boys who come up through that "hard school grow weary of life. The moral is old, but it is not very generally believed. There are worse things than being born poor. Yet every parent wants his boy born rich, and surrounded with all the opportunities wealth i tun i.rimue tor attaining greatness and " also for going " to " the " dogs. uuxn. Tl,i 1 it 1 C.N.
