  • Canada from Afar: Canadian Naval Persons in the Daily Telegraph Obituaries Peter Hore
    Canada From Afar: Canadian Naval Persons in the Daily Telegraph Obituaries Peter Hore Souvent, « ce qu’a fait papa à la guerre », ce qu’il a dit à ses enfants, ce dont ils se souviennent qu’il a dit et ce qui relève de l’histoire officielle représentent une demi-douzaine de contes différents. L’auteur dit aimer le sauvetage des fins détails du drap touffu de l’histoire navale. En tant que nécrologue navale depuis 2002, sa tâche a été d’établir la base absolue de la vérité sur la vie et les réalisations d’un individu; d’en faire une description sans hésitation, déviation ou répétition, et ceci à un lectorat généraliste; et de le faire avec un minimum d’adjectifs et d’hyperbole. Ce document met en évidence l’intérêt que les lecteurs d’un journal londonien a démontré pour la vie des officiers de la marine canadienne et la façon dont leurs réalisations ont été rapportées. The Daily Telegraph is perhaps the most Empire-minded of the British national newspapers, and so it is quite natural that Canadian naval officers, who as a cohort have played such prominent roles in the wars of the twentieth century, should appear in significant numbers in its pages.1 One of the oldest officers to appear in the obituary pages was Captain Ken Cummins who died on 11 December 2006 aged 106 and was one of the last half dozen men to have served in both world wars of the century.2 Cummins’ Canadian connection was that in 1918 he was a junior officer in the P&O’s liner Morea which had been turned into an armed merchant cruiser.

    THE NOVA SCOTIA MEDICAL BULLETIN EDITORIAL BOARD Editor-in-Chief Dr. A. J. Buhr Managing Editor DR . B. J. S. GROGONO Dr. P. C. Gordon MR. D. D. PEACOCKE Dr. S. M. A. Naqvi Associate Editor Dr. J. A. R. Tibbles Editorial Assistant DR . A. C. IRWIN Dr. J. P. Welch MRS. T. CLAHANE Dr. W. Putnam Good Nutrition: A natural necessity "An army marches on its stomach ". Napoleon It is not just armies that deserve good food - everyone does. Whilst in Canada, unlike many of the developing countries, we have adequate food reserves , the very plethora of nutriments, the wide variety of choice and the commercial exploitation of processed foods, have all produced a population with a far from perfect healthy profile. For several decades we encouraged mothers to bottlefeed their babies. Children were sent to school with sketchy midday meals, and pop and chips became the standard food supplements for every teenager. Succulent candies brought carious teeth and even Eskimo children suffered from devasting dental decay. Obesity became commonplace. The automobile and television also contributed to the high incidence of arteriosclerosis, coronary artery disease and gallstones. Too late, many of our adult population desperately studied the cholesterol content of their food, or prepared to submit to delicate arterial surgery. Fortunately, a more rational approach is possible. There is a great awakening of interest in nutrition, as was evident by the 600 in attendance at the Canadian Dietetic Society meeting, held recently at the Hotel Nova Scotian. Yet, the impact is not fully appreciated by all practising physicians, for this Society is largely a woman 's world and very few physicians attended.
