It is interesting to recall the line of great editors who made and maintained the greatness of The Globe. They were all outstanding men, high in tharacter and rich in talent. George Brown, the first editor, has his place in history. His brother, J. Gordon Brown, in the two short years from 1880 to 1882 proved the power of his pen and the force Oof his high ideals. John Cameron, a man of much talent, served from 1882 to 1890. Sir John Willison, one of the most gifted writers that Canada has known, was editor of The Globe from 1890 to 1902. Dr. J A. Macdonald, a writer and speaker of note, served from 1902 to 1915. T. Stewart Lyon held high the traditions of The Globe from 1915 to 1925, as did also Harry W. Anderson from 1925 to 1936. The present editor is A. A. McIntosh, who shows The Globe traditions, The Globe spirit, The Globe pasâ€" sion for service and uplift. All these men have done their part to make Canada a greater country and The Globe a national institution. Behind them alâ€" ways in support, in coâ€"operation, in inspiration, have been the ownersâ€"the Browns, Senator Jafâ€" fray, his son, W. G. Jaffray, and other members of the Jaffray family. The new owners did no more than justice in referring to the notable services and‘the high ideals and personal sacrifice for the advantage of Canada by the Jaffray family. The smaller newspapers of Canada should have a special affect,ion and appreciation for ‘"The Good Old Globe." First there was the knowledge of the great service The Globe was giving to Canada. Its example as a newspaper was itself an inspiration and a spur. Lesser newspapers liked to peddle the idea that The Globe in following its passion for morals and reform sometimes neglected the news services of the modern newspaper. Nothing could be further from the fact. Those who followed the columns of The Globe closely know how often in the matter news it "scooped" its contemâ€" poraries, and how seldom it missed any item of true news. Some of its "scoops" are historic. Its staff correspondent, for instance, cabled The Globe the list of Canadians killed and wounded at Paardeâ€" berg four days before the news reached the British war office, and five days before most Canadian newspapers published this information. During the Great War The Globe had similar exclusive nrews. In news. no less than in views, The Globe Canadaâ€"â€"§$2.00 Per Year Â¥ ONTARIO Members Canadian Weekly Newspaper Assoclation; Ontanoâ€" Quebor Newspaper Association; Class "A" Weekiy Group OFFICE 36â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"PHONES â€"RESIDENCE 70 Published Every Monday and Thursday by: GEO LAKE, Owner and Publisher Bubscription Rates: For the past 90 years The Toronto Globe has been an integral part of the history of Canada, of Ontario, of Toronto. It has helped make that hisâ€" tory, as well as faithfully recording the story of struggle and advancement. It is doubtful if any one single force has given as much of leadership, of service, of inspiration and of true benefit to the people of Canada as The Toronto Globe. It earned its title of "Canada‘s National Newspaper.‘"‘ More than that, it is recognized throughout the world as a great newspaper. All the petty jealousies, all the carping criticism, all the mean intolerance of petty political partisanship can not alter that fact. 1t is interestinege to recall the line of great editors The announcement last week that The Toronto Globe had been sold to new interests was received by many in much the same way as they would have heard the news of the death of some great nationâ€" al figure or some dear personal friend whose high character and long life of noble service had enâ€" deared. t‘m’b’g‘?‘ The way the news was received gives sfi'ik’iflgy oof of the notable place occupied by The Toronto Globe. Whether the feeling of loss is justified or not remains to be seen. The Advance hopes that there is no basis whatever for the idea that "The Good Old Globe" is dead, but rather that with ample finances it may go on to greater usefulness and power in the life of this young naâ€" tion. It is not necessarily the fact that a mere change of ownership means the end of the greatâ€" ness of The Globe. The Globe has survived other changes of ownership. It was George Brown ana his brother, Gordon, who first made The Globe a power in the land. There were honest people who believed that the passing of the Browns meant the end of The Globe. But under the ownership of the Jaffray family The Globe reached an influence and a height of service that far surpassed the glory of the days of the Browns. Every patriotic Canadian, every man who loves the better things of life, will fervently hope that the new publisher is sincere in his promise that the ideals of The is sincere in his promise that the ideals of The Globe will be maintained, its traditions will be preâ€" served, and it will continue its notable contribuâ€" tion to thought and action on all important public affairs, its vigorous support of popular rights and its uncompromising adherence to British ideals. Timmins, Ont., Monday, October 19th, 1936 is a great newspaper. The smaller newspapers of Canada wiil wish that The Globe remain the "Same Old Globe." It has been unusually kind and understanding and symâ€" pathetic to other newspapers, and ever ready to lend its powerful aid to any of the lesser newsâ€" papers that were seeking to expose evil or to right wrongs. It is difficult to see how anyone can dispute the| true greatness of The Globe as a newspaper and as a vital force for the advantage of Canada. If| The Advance were asked to name the particulars in which The Globe has been so truly great, so PAGE POUR Elpe Yorcupine Advance Uniteq Statesâ€"$83.00 Per Yeat | distinctive, it would be tempted to suggest that it ! was in its outstanding courage. It never appeared to ask what was expedient, but what was right. | Perhaps The Globe was wrong on occasion. It was !very human, very prejudiced, very strong in its opinions. But its humanity was kindly. Its prejudâ€" ices were all against evil things. Its opinions were always high and noble. The years, too, have an odd way of justifyirig even its supposed mistakes, Its temperance crusades brought many sneers from the politicians, but toâ€"day there are thcousands upon thousands of families who feel The Globe 1 was right. There were cheap slurs not so long ago | for The Globe because of its uncompromising atâ€" ititude toward the communists. Well, the years ' have convinced even Hon. Mr. Hepburn and yet ' will convince Hon. Mr. King that The Globe was right in its stand on the evils of communism. "The Good Old Globe" that has served Canada sc ably and so well. zans. The Globe seemed to realize that great as the Liberal party might be, truth was greater, patriotâ€" ism was greater, the newspaper was greater than the party machine. Literally thousands of conâ€" firmed Conservatives made a regular practice oIf reading The Toronto Globe. They might disagree with its political thoughts, with some of its moral causes, but it was always a gentleman among newspapersâ€"a newspaper written by ladies and gentlemen for ladies and gentlemenâ€"with courâ€" tesy, courage, culture, as its main motives, and the advance of Canada and the betterment of the people as its chief hopes. In his first public announcement, the new pubâ€" lisher of The Globe, C. George McCullagh, himself a graduate of The Globe, taking the full course from newsboy to financial editor, spoke of the hisâ€" toric background of The Globe and its great traâ€" ditions and ideals. He said that it was his aim to have this great historic newspaper serve the Canaâ€" dian people in accordance with the most worthy concepts of its past. All good Canadians will sinâ€" cerely wish him the greatest success in this high aim. and that The Globe may long continue to be The Globe was probably the greatest exponent of Liberal party privileges that Canada has ever had. Yet there was a touch of independence about The Globe that did not always please the partiâ€" SHOULD HELP ENTERPRISING _ Sister Mary Liguori, superintendent of St. Mary‘s hospital, and Sister Mary Fidelis, superintendent of the Nurses Training School, left yesterday to atâ€" tend the Catholic Hospital Convention, and the Ontario Hospital Convention These conventions will be held at the Royal York hotel, Toronto, this week In the psrsonal column of The Sudâ€" bury Star on Friday last there was the following paragraph:â€""Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Roach and baby, of Timmins, were weekâ€"end guests with Mr. Roach‘s parents, Mr. and Mrs. F.

This is a small piece of business, but need not g0o any further than that. As the Ferguson Highway the one lone highway in the North is known. The name is more descriptive and distinctive than any number. The newspapers and the people of the North can make the petty political meanness of no avail, simply by continuing to use the name Ferâ€" guson Highway. Indeed, it might be well to call the highway the Hepburn Highway pro tem, with the proviso that the name Ferguson Highway be again used as soon as the roadway is put into decent shape. - dian police who had to use clubs against communâ€" ists in some cities in this country.

Denning had interfered, ordering the man to stop work, because he believed the fence was on his property. Senecal refused, sayâ€" ing that he was merely carrying out Beatley‘s orders. Deonning, armed with a rifle, went to Beatley‘s house where hÂ¥e, demanded that the fence be torn down.
