The problems of tha world, econo
mic political «bd social wer! solved
before the Rotary club lest evening
according to a new formula—the
hath. The person offering the formula
waa Col. W. O. Acber who spoke on
"Sanitation end Civilisation."
Col. Archer’s talk ran something
like this: ' ,
What Is the direct cause pf the
holeheristfk regime In Russia? —The
lack o( proper bath faclliles.
Why ta it that England has been so
fueceesfnl aa a coloniser? Because
the Englishmen takes hia bath tub
with him. »
Why are th# French commonly
rpoktn of aa people of low jporals?
Because they hare public comfort
stations oa the streets. ' v
What explains the Damascus mass
acre? The fact that the people respon
sible R had suffered from hardening
i of the “moral arteries" because they
I used exposed comfort stations. ■
Why Is It tint there is always re
volution and “Hell all round” In
Mexicq? Because they don’t have the
advantages-of homes equipped with
modern bath facilities.
What was It that took man out of
the deeert as a wanderer end made
him of fixed habitation going on-
Ot % *
ward and upward to higher things?
TBs discovery of modern sanitation
methods.
On paper. Ibts begins to sound I
somewhat preposterous, doesn’t It.
but Col. Archer presented the theory
with such g£ucr and geniality, with
So much "It" that he won the Rotat
ions completely. They even let him
rug oa overtime end he had a fund of '
good stories and a wealth itt ekperi-;
qnce and travpi IhM supplied' good ,
mortar with which to hold the bath
tub Idee together.
When he had finished The Rotar
lana gave the epeaker a bigger hand
than they have given most meu who
