Building Permits One of the abso n::'v unmistak- avi signs of increasioy prospeiity' is the increase in the number of 1, »!ding permits taten o.t in Osh- awa. That the total of the permits for the month of November should be $30,000 is really a particularly encouraging indication of the civie situation. As a rule, November is not by any means one of the best building months in the year but this year it is going to do very well There is no doubt that Oshawa is in for a time of progress, especially if we all do our part. Never forget A good public spirit is one of our greatest assets. Think of towns and cities with which you are familiar and which have not grown. Have you noticed that the people and the papers in such stationary towns and cities are some to boost Oshawa. frequently pointing out that other town or city has something that they haven't and they grumble and ask why their town cannot have the same thing. That sort of envy and grouching kills a city very effec- tively. Oshawa does not wish to imitate any other place but only to make progress in its own way and in this development building permits help. Peace Through Education The Montreal Gazette comments editorially on a statement made by Lord Elgin to the effect that educa- tion should be directed towards the effort to obtain some method of settling disputes otherwise than by the weapons of war. international Most people will agree that As Lord Elgin said it is for the people who such an effort is essential. care and who are willing to study and think, to try to create an atmos- dinful and slaughterous murk which represents phere other than the the roughshod devices of modern militantism, with its hideous instru- ments and appalling prospects of vaster devastation and carnage. And this can only really be accomplished, if ever at all, by steady and persis- tent efforts education amongst the young and within the family circle. No international trea- ties and no diplomatic signatures by themselves will ever erect a firm, solid 'barrier against the passions en- gendered 'by warfare or during the intense feelings aroused when war is imminent or hostilities have ac- tually begun. Nor is it only towards interna- tional peace that systems of educa- tion should direct their efforts. In the last analysis it is education and not coercion that will cure the vari- ous ills with which humanity is af- flicted. Surely everyone would pre- fer to attain his ideal for society through education rather than through compulsion. Coercion is usually to be resorted to on grounds of expediency rather than on prin- ciple. : ? When compulsion is the weapon, passion is the guiding emotion, but, when education is depended upon, the appeal is to sober and substan- tial thinking. In his tour of Canada, Lord Elgin has done something of great value when he has given the people of this country principles of this kind to think about. Sometimes it seems that on this continent we are all so continuously in the whirligig of pro- paganda, of emotion, and of heated controversy that there is not as much time for real thinking as there should be; nor is there, unfortun- ately, as much desire to think as there should be. No question is settled because some one has issued a dictum upon it. Every question of peace must be thought out by every intel- ligent. man and woman for himself and herself. And, as Lord Elgin has intimated, if this ideal of edu- cation could be attdined, wars would become impossible, The Double Chin Every once in a while a University of publicity with some statement that is out of the ordinary. Today . | it is Professor J. Claude Jones, who has charge of geology in the Univer- sity of Nevada. double chin is a sign of a strong and healthy body, that a girl with a dou- does not, like most of her foolish sisters, try to starve herself into the sylphlike state so popular with the modern flapper. Jones also regards a double chin as a dimple, and not, as it is usually vegarded, a wrinkle. With a twinkle 'n his eye but with a Brave face Tones stated that "it is a long, slen- ier dimple, but nevertheless a dim- ple, and any girl ought to feel proud to possess one." The Reformer has elatorated on this topic on various occasions be- 'ore and we begin to see signs from time to time of a change in the atti- tude towards adipose tissue. In an- grace to be reasonably fat and this statement is made without preju- lice and without venturing to make any prediction as to the outcome of the approaching elections.

My, dot Yoy could buy every stitch of clothes 1 customer haf got an' den sell him a suitcase." mit a MUSSOLINI THE FATALIST (Buffalo Express) Benito Mussolini is evidently a 'atalist. "What is to be will be." But the dictator of Italy believes that what is to be will not be until his task is completed. But who can say when that will be? Who even knows how far Mussolini's task will carry him? He is a man of visions as well as a man of action. What does he see in the future? The empire of Italy? Even the Roman empire itself re-estub- lished? Anyhow Mussolini believes in him- self and in his stars. Six times in his career as Fascist leader his ene- mies have sought to take his life. But he still lives. The longer he lives the more enemies he will cre- ate and the more he will "live in danger." The task of no man who builds as Mussolini is building is ever finished. The structure de- pends for its maintenance too much on the existence of the creator. He can not build for others. When his time comes the structure will fall. His task, uncompleted, will then be- come the task, of others, a task un- doubtedly of rebuilding on other lines. NO SESSION TODAY HALL-MILLS JURY Halt Trial in Observance of Armistice Day--Doctors Appear Nov. Somerville, N.J., 10.--Pat- riotism or holiday desire of a Som- erset County jury today decreed a recess in the Hall-Mills case until Friday. There will be no session of the court tomorrow, Armistice Day, the jury voting the holiday, and winning commendation from the court. The hearing today again covered a wide territory and extended period. | It ranged from testimony of doctors, who saw the bodies before and after burial, ta that of a maid in the Hall home, who testified to conditions there at the time the Rev. Edward W. Hall was slain with Mrs. Eleanor R. Mills, choir singer in the church of which Mr. Hall was rector. Mrs. Frances Stevens Hall, widow of the slain rector, and her brothers, Henry and Willie Stevens, charged with the murder of Mrs. Mills, sat calmly through the crowded day. A motion by the State that the jury be permitted to visit the scene of the crime, near New Brunswick, was made and held in abeyance for the moment, with an indication from the defense that argument will be made against such a journey, professor breaks into the limelight | ° Professor Jones intimates that the | ble chin shows that she eats and | other year or two it will bé no dis- | TW CONSERVATIVES RUN SAME RIDING Split in the Ranks in Port Arthur at Yesterday's Convention ort Arthur, Nov. 10.--The result of | today's doings is that there are two Conservative candidates in Port Arthur for the Provincial elections. They are D. M. Hogarth, sclected at w ntion ruled, 'according to an, District President, to be duly in order, and F. H. Keefer, K. C., selected at a convention of the old Conservative group at a meeting called in his committee rooms when his followers had left the mass meeting'in a body, under protest at more | what they claimed an irregular rul- ing from the Chair. Mr. Keefer was member in the last Legislature and Parliamentary - Under-Secretary for Northern Ontario. Young Conservatives Blamed The cleavage occurred owing to the inclusion of a large number of Young Conservatives, their names added as being on a joint list of enrolled Conservatives who voted at the last Federal election, when J. D. Cowan was elected. This list was used for the calling of the present convention. The act was declared unconstitutional at this afternoon's meeting, and old-time Conserva- tives, such as Col. Little, Col. J. A. Crozier, W. H. Russell and others, addressed the convention in protest, claiming the delegates had not been appointed according to constitution by the Conservative Association, but had been chosen 'in slate fashion' by the whole body of Conservatives, whether old-line Conservatives or not. After due consideration, Chairman Dean ruled as follows: "I declare that this meeting is a regular meet- ing of the Conservative party." Col. Little then rose ia his seat and protested vehemently, saying that he refused to abide by the rul- ing of the Chair, and, that he would seek ruling elsewhere, to which Dr. Dean calmly replied that he had a perfeet right to do so. The delegates who were Keefer peorters, led by Col. Little, then G the meeting, amid derisive cheers. ) The Keefer party proceeded to: Keefer's committee rooms, where F. H. Keefer was selected as a candi- date. It is understood he will run as an Independent Conservative. MASSEY APPOINTED "AS U. S. MINISTER Ottawa, Nov. 10.--Hon.

EE ---------------------- RITSON H. AND S. CLUB " | Aimee McPherson's, has been found A splendid attendance was record- ed at the regular meeting of the Ritson road Home and School Club last night. The president, Mrs. O. D. Friend, was in the chair. Among the decisions made by the club, was one to hold their meetings on the second Wednesday of each month in place of the second Tuesday 'as has been the custom. The following program was drawn up for the winter months: Decem- ber, Diatetic, talk by the diatition of the Hospital; January, Citizen- ship; February, Home Science. The club was then favored with a solo by Miss Irene Winter. A den- tal pageant. was given by a number of the school children. This wads ex- ceptionally fine, and showed that the younger ones realize the importance of caring for their teeth. A solo was then given by Melvin Foster which was v@y much enjoyed. Dr. Phil- ips then gave an illustrated talk on teeth. It was a very interesting and helpful talk. He pointed out clear- ly how the teeth begin to decay and showed how theis could be prevent- ed, in order to stop the decay. A very hearty vote of thanks was ten- dered Dr. Phillips for the very ex- cellent address. The meeting was closed with the National Anthem.
