SATURDAY, JULY 9, 1927, HE PROPOSED MEMORIAL FOUNTAIN ovk or a month has passed since Mayor Pres- ton's proposals regarding the erection of a fountain in Memorial Park was brought before the public, At the time, his worship suggest- ed that the proposed fountain should marfl, in a noteworthy way, Oshawa's part in the cele- bration of the Dominion's Diamond Jubilee, Interest throughout June centered increas- ingly in Oshawa's plans for the great Jubilee Celebration, In these efforts Mayor Preston gparel neither time nor effort, but many citi- zens who approved the idea of a Jubille Foun- tain hope that the matter will again be brought befoud the public for final action, As pointed out by Dr, T, E, Kaiser, M.P,, the small pool in front of the War Memorial detracts rather than adds to its impressive beauty. Not large enough to serve as a mir- ror for one of the finest of Canadian war monuments, it perhaps deserves the title of a "rog pond" which Dr, Kaiser applied to it, The-Oshawa Daily Times indorses the pro- josals made in June by Mayor Preston, The Jubilee Fountain would be a fitting supplement the Mémorial's ever-burning lamps and the cclemn sentiment which invests its Garden of the Untorgotten, i CROP PROSPECTS "The seasons of this Jubilee Year of Canadian Confederation have smiled on the Ontario County farmer. From townships both near and far come predictions that the harvest of 1927 will be an abundant one, and with a third of July gone-such prophecies are not far from actual fulfillment, | In general, as to harvesi hopes of both On- tario and the Dominion at large, many indica- tions point to' bumper crops. The west's grain fields will soon be yellowing for the reaper; Canaan orchards promise an unu:uslly large yield™* These things are swelling the chorus of op- timism in which every section of the Dominion is joining. Good times, already here, promise better times for the near future. As the farmer's hopes turn to certainty, ev- cry section of Canadian life will benefit. Lux- uries which could not be indulged in during lcaner years will, very soon, begin to make new demands on. Canadian. factories, With more orders, there will be more employment, and more" generous life for all that comprise the srceial framework of the Dominion. Foolish optimism is always to be deplored, but with so many portents of a greatly pros- perous era at hand it cannot be unwise to pause a moment for mutual congratulation. = BUYING IN OSHAWA Ed There is no statement more fallacious than buy cheaper out of town." Yet it pot uncommon as it should be in very town and city has its popula- mail order and out-of-town buyers, y for the home-town merchants, fous own itself and the residents in that that proportion of out-of-town buyers is may be instances where there have economies through buying , but how do the books bal- reckoning?

Can anybody afford to journalism of all time, Something more than emulation inspired The Expositor in publishing a number so ambi- tiously conceived and so splendidly completed, Departing from standard newspaper form, The Expositor's Anniversary Number is published as a magazine of 144 pages, Permanently bound and richly illustrated, the number is filled out with a series of fine special articles that cover the whole range of Brantford's his- tory and development from wilderness days to its thriving present. Brantford, as The Expositor's editorial fore- word to the Anniversary Number points out, this year not only celebrates the Diamond Jubilee of Confederation but its own Golden Jubilee as a Canadian city, In addition the city's original settlement of pioneers received the name of "Brantford" just one hundred years ago, Such conjunction of national and civic anni- versaries was in itself a challenge to extra- ordinary effort in the publishing sense, but 1927 also marked the 75th anniversary of The Expositor. That the paper more than met the obligation of such a memorable year is wit- nessed by an anniversary number that will be a prized possession of all who received it, and a valuable addition to the historical records of Brantford and Brant County. BRIAND'S PEACE PLAN It seems to many persons that the American people and the world have not taken seriously enough the recent suggestion of Foreign Min- ister Briand, of France, for a Franco-American treaty outlawing war bteween these two great powers, The reception given Colonel Lindbergh in France showed how few obstacles there are in the way of such a two-party treaty, Of course, some will argue that the United States and France are on the friendliest terms and that war between them .is remote, so why 4 no-war treaty? It would be but a gesture, they contend, But it would not be an empty gesture. Some- times the right kind of gesture is an extremely weighty force in international affairs. Ges- tures have caused and stopped wars, A scrap of paper may he rather insignificant in itself, but it may also cxert influence of far-reaching effect, M. Briand's treaty might be one of those scraps of paper which prevent wars. Smaller nations have made such treaties before with salutary results. Why should mot the plan succeed as well for two world powers? And even should the treaty fail to preserve peace between the United States and France the ges- ture alone would have a tremendous moral effect upon other world powers. Certainly a covenant for all the world to see setting forth that two great nations have for- ever pledged to an amicable settlement of what- ever differences may arise between them, can do more toward perpetuation of world peace than "alliances" under which the contracting nations pledge to each other their military forces in time of war. EDITORIAL NOTES Filipinos want more freedom, but the people of the United States haven't any to spare. If it wasn't for mice, some women wouldnt get any exercise. You can't tell. The loafers you know may be accumulating material for the confession magazines. The farmer has his troubles, but it doesn't take forty acres of corn to pay the rent on a habitation the size of a hen Bouse. | A BIT OF VERSE | I've plucked the berry from the bush, the brown nut from the tree, But the heart of happy little bird ne'er broken was by me.

The belief may he discarded at last however, for Sheba, a well known ostrich in the London Zoo, has just gone to her final resting place hecause she swallowed a can-opener. Sheba was a good hird with a good digestion. She ate almost everything that came her way. But the can-opener finish- ed her, HIN STRINGLESS VIOLIN (New York Times) Canon F. W, Gilpin, rector of the parish of Fanlkbourne, England, has a hobby unique musical instru- ments. He has about #600 speci- mens from all corners of the earth. Oddest of all, perhaps, is a string- less violin. Another surprising musical instrument is what appears to be a large family Bible; when opened it shows a keyboard and a small set of pipes. On this organ the canon has played at mission ser- vices, GREAT BRITAIN PAYS (Market For Exchange) An interesting article in the New York Times called attention to some amazing statistics regarding the wartime debt' of foreign nations to the United States. Great Britain has already paid $642,830,000 to this country, a great achievement in nor- mal times---a stunendous feat in the chaotic economic situation of today. Of this vast sum, $547.830,000 was interest, and £95.000,000 was to- ward the reduction of the debt. In 1926, alone, Great Britain paid us $135,900.000 as interest and $25.- 000,000 on the principal. How far the English are going to reduce their debt can be better appreciat- ed when we realize that during this same year, from all other debtor nations combined, we have recoived in round figures only $20,000,000. That Body of 4 Pours By Jas. W. Barton, M.D. Nothing the Matt» With Them mistake a physician makes in los- ing interest in a percent because he is umable to find any organic trouble. He dismisses the patient with the remark that there jis mo- and forget it. Some physicians go further and make a more exhaustive cxamina- tion by stomach tests X-ray meals. X-rays of teeth and so forth, and they likewis: dismiss the patient with the same remark. One of Boston's leading medical wen, addscssing students of Har vard Medical Colleg., speaking of these cases states, that except for ases of acute infection, these po le "with nothing the matter with them." number about half the pa- ents that go to physicians or go 10 hospitals.

At the age of 50, he has im- personated the English nohleman whose name he took, and is alleged to have married more than two ieore women for the purpose of himself.
