How long will the city of Toronto and guburbs permit higleyâ€"pigley growth and. hv‘lm. Efforts are being made to halt this of districts and communities . City and suburbs are realizing the of eoâ€"ordinating efforts in order to bring t a perfect patron for the welfare of the residential, industrial and merchandisâ€" ing centres. People are astounded at $30,â€" ©00,000 figures put forth by the planning board of the city of Toronto and to meet in a asmall measure the problems that confront them. Suburban municipalities are loth to enter into the question, because of the great expense involved. Yet a start must be made. Citizens owe a great deal to the Toronto Planâ€" ming Board for investigations and work that has been accomplished. A study of their ml show definitely that they know what are doing. It is not a haphazard survey, but a mflut has been made after careful analysis, after careful figures and facts have guburbs permit thi ot is jumble of grising. (:i‘tyu h,'iuku,,t:o; been gathered. _ York Township is the latest to organize a planning board and they are to be comâ€" mended for their foresight. There should be & coâ€"ordination of all planning boards with a representation from the suburban municipaliâ€" ties effecting the metropolitan area with the éity of Toronto to put forth the plans. These g:; are essential to the health and well ing of the citizens. It is estimated by those who have gathered figures, that in 30 years the population of the metropolitan area will be a million and a half people. The question comes upâ€"where are they going to live, how will they to and from work, where will they buy t&\.:lr merchandise, where will their recreation be centred and the 101 other needs for conveniences for such a population. Now is the time to lay these plans. As a matter of fact, it is the duty of the present generation to look to the future. Our forefathers hewed out this forest, laid the city and suburbs and they did not count the cost, but built the best they knew. We, with their experience of the mth the. knowledge of our present conâ€" , with the anticipated growth and m’bpmlnt are in a position to make a conâ€" tion. Therefore, it is expedient that attention be given to this program and the epâ€"operation of the metropolitan area be secured to build, not higleyâ€"pigley, but to build in a wellâ€"planned manner to take care of the future population of the great centre of Canada. There is, of course, the will power method. "This consists of lying flat on the back on fil‘lfll, concentrating on the hour of rising. last waking thought should be of that . Many who have tried this method that after many hours they drifted to a restless sleep, haunted by the face a monster clock. It is definitely for the Stronger types only. a tried all methods, and having there is still another system, a rather ome. Go to bed earlier. METROPOLITAN COâ€"ORDIN ATION "What is the working girl‘s greatest problem ?" someone asked us this week. On mature consideration, we replied, "Getâ€" ting up in the morning." Lying in bed until five minutes before the onâ€"time street car leaves gets to be a habit, like biting fingerâ€" mails or singing through the nose. Most working girls complain that one alarm clock simply will not do the trick. This be overcome by using two clocks, one the window sill, the other under the bed, a variation of about two minutes in the time. The delinquent who sneaks D under the cover for another round is mg after a time, shock may be for serious cases.

America‘s plan is the return to free enterprise. Russia‘s plan is totalitarian conâ€" trol. Britain is experimenting with a halfâ€" way plan of socialism. Which plan will ldomimu? Again it may be a question less | of plan than of philosophy. _ _ _ _ â€" racy or Soviet Communism is the choice of the European States today. France and Britâ€" ain have accepted the challenge and have issued an invitation.to the European States to gather and discuss the acceptance of the Marshall Plan. Does it effect us* Yes, the world is no longer separate units separated by seas. WhathaTminlondm;MPlr'u. Washington and Russia is simultaneously transmitted to every quarter of the globe. We are all interâ€"dependent on each other. Therefore, the issue that is before the people of Europe today, is the same issue that is before the people of this continent. It is the same issue that is before the people in this metropolitan area. Communism or Christian" democracy * That is the issue. It is high time that the citizens of this Metropolitam area made a study of the two ideologies. Which do you prefer?‘ You can not make a choice until you know the workings of the one or other. You must visualize the end in view ofâ€"either. The one is a government enslaving and conâ€" trolling the individual. The Christian democâ€" racy is the uplifting of man, giving him his freedom of thought and action. The details of these two systems can be carefully thought out and worked out if you would only take time to consider the situations. Read the treatment of the communistic states, look into the results of the Christian democracies and you have the answer. Yes, every individâ€" ua) is asked to and is expected to get behind the British and French Government to reâ€" build Europe on Christian democratic ideals. "Delighted with the courtesy extended, with the scenery seen, with the beauty of your country." These were the words of one of our American tourists from Hollywood, Cal., who travelled across the U.S. to the eastern coast and then through the Maritimes round to Gaspe, up the Saguenay and on to the city of Toronto. He admired}the beauty of the Saguenay, the loveliness of the Gaspe coast and Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia and the sights of Montreal and Toronto. Thus far he had motored 9,000 miles on this jourâ€" ney and is now on his way back to California with a real word for the eastern Canada and the treatment that he and his wife received from Canadians.

Western democâ€" One of the great goodâ€"will embassadors, who will carry unsolicited, the greetings and goodâ€"will message of Canada to all those peoâ€" ple he meets on the west Pacific coast. Yes, it pays to be courteous to our American guests and visitors. It tans to show them attention and see that they have an opporâ€" tunity to visit the places of interest. It pays large dividends, for every American dollar that is spent in Canada helps our trade balâ€" ance with the U.S. Care should be taken that any discourtesy shown should be immediately checked by sales girls, merchandisers, manuâ€" facturers, industrialists and professional men. No matter what the sphere of life, there should be care taken to see that every wisitor isâ€"treated with the greatest courtesy. This can be done quietly without any great display. Invite the American tourist back with his friends and let him the goodâ€" ‘;vill of Canada and her citiz::lnzuk to his ome. THOSE NOISY "NIGHT HAWKS* There has not been too much of it in recent weeks that we have heard, but the bad manâ€" ners and noisy behaviour of certain m'ougs of people on our streets at night will no doubt be increased as the good weather continues. That‘s one thing about this type of people. They won‘t do too much shouting and horn blowing on a cold winter night, but when the pleasant summer nights arrive, even their wrispers, if they had any, will be carried swiftly to the ears of citizens who are trying to get a good night‘s rest. No, we believe the most effective solution to this nuisance would be some sort of a boobyâ€"trap. Not a very harmful typeâ€"but one which will perhaps release a voiceâ€"box attacking germ which will cause the noisy offender to be inflicted with severe laryngitis for a reasonable period of timeâ€"not more than six months. There are few householders who have not fought the impulse to do "moider" at one of the late hours when a loud voice can be heard on the street below. While lying abed sleepâ€" less it is often a great help to one‘s peace of mind to plot ways and means of exterminatâ€" ing those noises in the night. True, we can always call the local police, but usually our disturbers seem to be psychic and move away quickly soon after the law is called upon, or shortly before the man in blue arrives. Each plan is selfâ€"defeating though not beâ€" cause of defects in the plan so much as defects in philosophy. â€"It is not a new plan we need but a new lmhy-â€"-not a new system but a new t. _ Only the Spirit nKakn to the gpirit. Nations which would win the world war of ideas must pioneer the spiritual way of life to replace incentives of materialism. Then what they plan will work. It is said the Nazis lost the war when their plan produced no landing barges at a time when they had England at their mercy. It would be truer to say they lost before thatâ€" when they produced a brutal philosophy that turned the world against them. _ â€" Free enterprise in a philosophy of materialâ€" ismâ€"a philosophy of everybody get for himâ€" self as much as he canâ€"always overreaches itself. The socialist plan in a philosophy of materialism fails to go far enough. Cutting off selfâ€"interest it does not call forth enough selfâ€"giving to serve the common interest, except through moving further on to totaliâ€" tarian dictatorship. o â€" â€" THE SPIRIT OF THE THING Totalitarianism in a philosophy of materâ€" ialism tries to smother the materialism but smothers effort as well and has to resort once more to the old lures of selfishness. |__The recent death of Henry Ford calls to mind the time when Thomas ‘A. Edison, meeting with his old cronies, Ford and Harvey 8. Fireâ€" ‘stome, pitted the two against each |other in shrewdly devised feats of ‘competition. One day, down in |Florida, Mr. Edison raised the ‘tantalizing question of who was the |better salesmanâ€"Ford or Fireâ€" stone ? | Poet‘s Corner | He suggested that the two men| test their powers of persuasion on | a certain rich Indian living in a nearby Seminole village. Ford| went to the Indian and plied him | with his most appealing and adroit | sales talkâ€"but no sale! | "Well, Firestone," laughed Edison, "you might as well give up. The Indian has no car, so how can you sell him a tire?" | But the tire magnate, undaunted, ma];de his appealâ€"and effected a sale! Knew Method For Completing A Sale "How in the world did you do it ?" his two friends wanted to know. and free. â€" 0 Through the 'gwdul leafy trees _ Comes a little whispering breeze "It was simple enough," replied Firestone. "I found out that the Indian‘s little son is the idol of his existence, so I just said, Chief, how about buying a nice, big hoop for your boy?"

Reasonable Rates =â€"SPECIALâ€" Is the time TIMES AND GUIDE, WESTON we ever way to the ‘Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved," and you have known from childhood that great verse John 3: 16â€""For God so loved the world that He gnve His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." With many others you have wondered what it meant to believe and how to do it, and yet in other departments of life you are doing that every day. When you go to work you are believing in your employer for your pay cheque at the end of each week. When you entrusted your car to a mechanic for repairs you had faith in his ability and trustworthiness to put your car in a safe condition. You were believing or trusting him for something he had not yet done. Here you are ‘asked to trust Jesus Christ for something He has alâ€" ready done, and the moment you trust Him, all the benefits of His "finished work" become yours. In the Epistle it is pointed out definitely that as we are baptized there is a death unto sin and new birth unto righteousness, but this new birth unto righteousness must be developed day by day with a love for God and His ways. The Collect appointed for the day is one of those outstanding gems that will stand a careful study and analysis and can be used daily. Stop and read it: "O God, who hast prepared for them that love thee such good things as pass man‘s understanding; pour into our hearts such love toward thee, that we, loving thee above all things, may obtain thy promises, which exceed all that we can desire; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. Trust Him now, do not doubt Him. Commit your soul into His care, believe m Him "when to know is life eternal." "Jesus I will trust Thee Trust Thee with my soul Guilty lost and helpless. Thou canst make me whole." Every man is desirous of living successfully. ‘The successful life, however, is not the accumulating of wealth, prestige or power; but rather the preparation of service in this life for others, and for the life eternal. In the Epistle and Gospe! appointed for this day, the teaching amplifies the power of love. It,shows that this great force is the basic element for all relationships and true living. The gospel shows that the old law points out, ‘"Thou shalt not.‘ A negative law, the teaching of our Lord was to the effect that the law implied for them, the actual killing. If a man hates his brother, he is breaking that comâ€" mandment. It is love that must be cultivated; therfore, any force or act thniueontruywlm.hnp.nfi:(ufi{nm(}od. It is only through‘ the continuity to perfect relationships between God and man, that the highest development of man can be obtained. This is perfected through a continual placing and cultivation of that love for God, and those things that are pleasing to Him. Weston Pentecostal We never close up. The Weston Pentecostal church is open to serve The speaker pointed out that it was time to call a halt for higly pigley leapâ€"frogging methods of expansion _ from _ the _ crowded centres. He showed that over a period of years, residential district after district in the city of Toronto had become overâ€"crowded and the residents pushed to new . subâ€" divisions with no thought of transâ€" portataion, communication or conâ€" venience. As a result difficulties have been created in the new subâ€" divisions to meet the demands of this growing population. He showâ€" ed definitely that at the present time rot is taking place in residâ€" ential districts that can only be stopped by a careful planning system. Upon cnm(riling statistics carefully assembled over a period of time, he stated that it is estimâ€" ated that the pogu]ntion of the city of Toronto in 30 years will be one million and a half people. In order to accommodate these people, to maintain the prosperity and to keep up the present districts and meet the demands, it is absolutely necessary for a planning board to Eor:puro for the situataion. This rd has been carrying on an imâ€" portant work gathering the detail and formulating plans. They have presented a comprehensive plan to meet the situation. It means exâ€" reas hiihvu_vn. reconversion â€" of &en with every facility for a self contained section, taking care of recreataion, education, spiritual develo&nem and houdn“. People ‘mu-t convenient to their work Town Planning Needed) iry To Assure Good Life d WIRWINGENE SE Town planning is not a matter of highways and fantastic ideas, but is essential to the health and comâ€" fort of the people. It is also a factor in maintaining the prosperâ€" ity of any city or community. It builds with an objective in view of creating environments that are congenial to the development of good living, health and enjoyment of life. These were the sentiments given exflrenion to by Tracy la May at the Kiwanis Club of West Toronto _ last _ Thursday. â€" This talented engineer who has been connected with town planning boards and made a special study of it, gave one of the most informaâ€" tive and explanatory talks on the subjectn Those who heard him beâ€" fore and heard him on Thursday, thought it was the best talk that he has given on town planning, which is so dear to his heart. His years of experience the mass of detail that has accumulated, the well trained mind developed over these years placed before the memâ€" bers of Kiwanis, the ideas and ideals of the town planning in a brief haif hour talk that left no argument against proceeding with the enterprise. must be convenient to their work and all sections built, so that comâ€" munication and other facilities are operated at a minimum cost.

Christian Science The Golden Text was: ‘‘To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory l.mly majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever." (Jude 1:25). Correlative citations from the Christian _ Science _ textbook, "Science and Health with Key ‘to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, included the following from page 497: "As adherents of Truth, we take the inspired Word of the Bible as our sufficient guide to "God" was the subject of the lesson sermon which was read in all churches of Christ, Scientist, Third Church of Christ, Scientist, 70 High Park avenue, at 11 a.m. and broadcast over Station CFRB at 11 a.m. on Sunday, July 6th. mt l dn selcp C000 en (ns throughout the ‘world, including For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods." _ eternal Life." ed out. ‘"Even though large highâ€" ways are planned as part of the development, the especial emphasis is J)llced in adding to the health and welfare of the citizens." Mr. leMay said that "highways won‘t work unless there is storage place for the cars that travel them.‘ The present system of using vaâ€" cant lots for parking cars has been partially efficient but it is not a permanent solution. He advocated civic parking lots operated as pubâ€" lic utilities and said that in Pittsâ€" burg, that city is srendin‘ $26 milâ€" lion for municipal lots. Mr. leMay stated that literature and pamphlets are available for the public, if they want to take the time to secure and read the same. He was introduced by Ald. Dr. Wm. Butt and thanks were expressed by Mr. Mcintyre. Dave Gallagher donated the attendance prize, and incidently it was his last meeting for a while, as he is leaving soon for the far east.
