CANTON TRADES' FAIR.

THOUSANDS ATTENDING

..........

CANTON, Jan. 16. The Trade Fair held in the premises of the Canton Police Club on Fung Ning Road, where native made products of every description aro on display, is attracting wide attention. Ever since its formal opening on January 10 thousands have been streaming in daily.

Judge Lyle's outspoken attack on Capone has created a sensation in Chicago, the majority of whose citizens welcome any real attempt to rid Chicago of the gangster

It is believed here that the judge's words will go a great way towards forcing the authorities to redouble their efforts to bring) Capone to justice,

In addition to the vagrancy war rant now pending against him he has been ordered to appear before a, Federal grand jury to answer charges of having evaded income tax payments to the extent of hun dreds of thousands of pounds.

NO CRIMINAL

CHILDREN.

DOCTOR AND CAUSES OF

WRONGDOING.

"There is no such thing as d criminal chili," said Dr. Will Moodie, medical director of the Child Guidance Clinic, Islington; when speaking at a luncheon held in connection with the Howard League for Petal Reform,, “The child criminal does not exist," he said, "but there are some children who behave in an anti-social way and that may correspond to the type of behaviour which in the case of an adult might be called crispin- al." He added that he saw five or six hundred children a year at the Child-Guidance Clinic and near by all the cases were of stealing and of lying to cover it up.

One of the first things ane had d discover was whether the child who did wrong was mentally, deficient or whether because of the influences of its environment it had failed to develop. An environment in which a child was kept in a state of un certainty tended to make it unable to develop the foresight and power of making plans that guided normal people in their actions. Normal children learned how to set about getting what they wanted by legi- imate ways and they learned how to plan their actions, but the un- certain child might simply take what he wanted and learn wily ways of escaping from the results of his own actions. He very often got away with it.

The Child in a Tantrum,

Already mild attempts have been "I firmly believe," said Dr. made to embarrass him by raiding Moodic, "that 95 per cent. of the his headquarters and arresting children brought to the clinic with several of his more prominent under-tantrums and all sorts of things are lings, but so far Capone himself, has normal.

In the caso of the normal child I study all the papers about it, see the child and the parents, and then have a dis eussion with the parents. Then I get a psychological examination. I believe a great deal of harm in being done by doctors, and I am a doctor who is trying to do intelli- gence tests. The proper person to do those tests is the teacher who knows the subject, and who, having studied psychology, can apply the tests and, interpret the results pro perly

INCREASED STAMP DUTY.

OBJECTIONS BY CHINESE

BANKS.

The incre;estamp: duty on receipts was the sulfect of comment at a meeting of the Chinese Cham ber of Commerce yesterday. A letter was received by the Chamber from the Chinese Bankers' Associa tion, pointing out that the increas td stamp duty on receipts actually brought little revenue to the Gov- ernment but in effect caused great hardship to merchants. It pointed out that owing to adverso business conditions generally, not to say the slockness of business, this new duty is all the more difficult to bear.

It was further argued that when. the Government proposed to in- crease the stamp duty on recoipts at the end of the war, the community | succeded in prevailing upon the Government to deft the proposed increase. If it was necessary to defor taxation then, it was even more necessary to do so new..

SCOTLAND YARD OF BERLIN.

Asked what percentage was shown by the average child in an intelli gence test, he said that 100 per cent, was a little below the normal in England because the test was standardised in Amerien, The over- ago scholarship intelligence here would be about 120 per cent., and the child recording 95 per cent. would get on quite well at on elementary school.

Should Women dread the approach of a perfectly natural event?

NATURE never intended you to suffer Why is it then that so many thousands of women experience such pain and weakness?

Simply because the body lacks calcium.

That is the reply, supported by the best medical opinion. Calcium is the vital food of every body cell, and any shortage hinders the correct performance of all bodily func- tions, particularly those of women.

The use of KALZANA, the calcium-food, for a few weeks provides the whole system with all the calcium (lime) needed to establish that care-free, vigorous health that Nature intended you

to enjoy.

But it must be Kalzana, as only in this scientific form (a combination of sodium lactate and calcium-lactate) will the calcitim be taken up and retained by your body.

Lose your dread-re-establish the functions on a normal basis by starting a course of Kalzana to-day.
