D, Tresidder, representative, wT : ine Us FE MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1927 CLEANING-UP WINDSOR Following charges made by The Border Cit- ies Star, General Victor Williams was sent to~ Windsor--but under some protest it appear- ed-- to investigate the situation as regards illicit liquor traffic, gambling and so on, Reports over the week-end are to the effect that Windsor police, acting on their own initi- ative, had staged a number of raids in. which more than fifty alleged gamblers and blind- piggers were arrested. he ; Windsor and its adjoining border towns rep- , resent something over fifty thousand of popu- lation, If one night's raids in a community of, that size can bring fifty people into the polide: net, allegedly guilty of the very things whieh' formed the basis of The Border Cities i charges, then the Windsor situation begins ch assume serious proportions, Not at. Windsor so much, bad as conditions apparently are, but that the Provincial depart- ment charged with enforcing the Liquor Con- trol Act seemed so hesitant about a situation which had not been presented .to it through some official body. It is entirely admissible that the Government should not be embarassed by merely partisan outery, nor be hurried into investigations of alleged corruption when there are not suffi- cient grounds to warrant such, But isn't the good sense of the people of Ontaria to be relied upon? Will it not, in fair play, condemn such tactics just as surely as it feels that in treating The Border Cities Star's charges with some- thing close to contempt, the Government has allowed its reputation for vigilance to be tar- nished ? ; NINE YEARS AGO Weather such as June might envy is making September this year one of those months that live in memory, to be cited later as evidence of "longer summers when I was young." The fields, the roadsides, the very margins of the lake are in royal array. The most familiar hills, decked with golden rod and asters, are mantled with the purple of Tyre and with a golden splendor such as Ophir never knew. Yet all this beauty reminds the remember- ing of the autumn period nine years ago. After 1918's earlier heartbreak, the waning of sum- mer brought Britain its first taste of victory in four long years struggle against a relent- less and, at times, seemingly invincible foe. But, nine years ago, the great war's end was even nearer than the world supposed. The armistice, however, was but the end of one form of conflict. For the men who came out the Valley with fixed bayonets and haintf| ed eyes, Nov. 11, 1918, was merely the date of their enlistment in a war that requires en- durance more than gallantry, and the ability to take the lowest seat at a feast and then not sour in spirit and hope when there's no immedi- ate summons "to come up higher," i In this war--the familiar Battle of Life-- Oshawa's war veterans are showing the stuff that's in them very splendidly. Few public functions this year but have been marked by their contributing in one modest way or an- other to such occasion's success, Veteran activities in an organized way. have not been wholly unchequered, In some cases, the comparatively few and unrepresentative braggarts, whiners, and loud-of-moyth have shamed the vast majority of ex-service men into cold fury at the very ideas of comradely association. The still young Canadian Legion movement, however, seems to be doing 'most effective work in repairing past mistakes, Their recent efforts here are wholly commendable, and a city which has always realized the true quality of. the Canadian Veteran is proud to see the local Legion branch building so firmly for a happier future, . MAKING FRIENDS Making friends is about the easiest of the fine arts. An absolutely friendless individual is bard to find; and if found, such a freak of human nature deserves pity such as only a dweller in Paradise could bear towards a dwell- I tary village's Main Street he is wi :genétally audible comment, f - envin the drehry wastes of bliss-forfeited ban- + ighment. ter. It is difficult for any individual to end a J and at the final summing have six logical pallbearers turn away from love's last "task for fear of an unmanly breakdown. Which is only another way of saying that friends who stand closer than brothers and who outlast the years rarely number more than two. - Keeping friends is also difficult for insti- tutions of any sort. The weekly story of bank- ruptey in Canada is as much a record of fr ips lost as of finances unwisely ed. Business success is by no means the dly calculating thing many believe, The true successes, the great ones, are built on friend- ship, It may be an impersonal sort of thing, yet the elements are all there--mutual respect, service, courtesy, right dealing. _Glad-handing is a pleasant accomplishment, but it isn't worth the time wasted in slapping shoulders if it isn't followed up. The essence of friendship is' sincerity, and the man desir- . ing to make and keep friends must have that essential honesty to an eminent degree. This doesn't prohibit the use of a friendly heart to financial advantage, but the friendly heart has to be there first, There is no hypoc- ricy more quickly detected than that of serv- ing merely with a profit end in view. RED MAN'S TRIBE INCREASING The misanthropic author of the epigram, "The masses are always wrong," is sometimes confirmed by events of the day, if he employed the word "masses" in the sense of popular belief, . For decades and for some reason, now un- knewn, the public has been under the impres- sion that the Indian has been rapidly approach- ing extinction as a race. Perhaps the average 4 peison, if examined on the subject, would ex- press the belief that it is only a matter of a Mew generations before the last full-blooded Indian will have gone to his fathers. 'We have not the Canadian figures available but we have seen the U. S. census bureau's announcement of an increase of 2,693 in the country's Indian population during the year ended June 30. One is puzzled by census fig- ures showing a gain of 18,976 in the Indian population in the last twelve years, that there are 120,163 Indians in the state of Oklahoma and that there are now 6,135 Indians living in New York state. Better living conditions, economic prosperity and the beneficial effects of civilizing influences probably account for the growing Indian popu- lation, That the race has survived to this time is remarkable, although there now seems to be no valid reason why it should not multiply. The red man is no longer made the target for the white man's rifle and many tribes have be- come fabulously wealthy from oil discovered on the Oklahoma lands the white man's gov- ernment believed barren and worthless and therefore set aside as reservations for the aborigines. JACK CANUCK, WORLD CITIZEN Canada is now a member of the League of Nations Council, In a close contest at Geneva, one of the three vacant seats on the League Council was wen by the Dominion. It appears that Jack Canuck has not only grown up but is becoming a man of affairs. On this plane- the subject of weenerally favorable and, it must be admitted, It has to be ad- Mmitked, also, that Jack Canuck isn't above listen- ing im. There was a time when it was freely predicted that the Boy Canada would come to 'no good end. Up until close to his 60th birth- day, many nations weren't above saying that he would run away from home at the first op- portunity. It is an interesting fact that one of Canada's fellow Council members--Germany --staked the lives of a million of .its people on the belief that Jack Canuck ("Old John Bull's eldest son") would leave the old man flat at the first rifle shot. : All this new status is very gratifying. Asa matter of fact, there are probably not a thou- sand people in the Domijniop who know just what it means. It is also equally true, perhaps, that an even smaller number care enough about the promotion to read the announcement through before turning to the sport page. This doesn't mean that Canada, in general, does not approve of the League of Nations. It simply indicates that Canadians know that Can- ada is already a member of the greatest League of Free Peoples ever known to history. If any advantage to itself or Empire is to be gained through membership on the League Coungil-- well and good. in But if anyone of the professional "viewers with alarm" see in this step any further inelin- ation to break away from the Empire, then those pessimistic souls peed a nerve 'tonic. One of the best of such is the late Col. Me- Rae's "In Flander's Fields." That lyric will keep Canada within the British Empire until such time as some poet can write nobler verse about the League of Nations. eeping friends, however, is another mat- 9 Sh, PA ; Mion W, Feri MA =, Sf AER in accordance with the Cop bight Act.

Perhaps the patient received some relief by mov- ing 'to'a different climate, but usu- ally the only thought was treat- ment during the attack itself, Nowadays however, the physician makes a thorough investigation as to the causa of the asthma, and by persistent searching he is able, in the majority of cases, to locate the cause. He finds that in some cases the attacks are worse during certain seasong of the year. For instance, as shown by Dr, G. T. Brown, of Washington, cases seen in the early Spring may be due to the pollen from trees, those in the late Spring and Summer to the various grasses, and those in the Fall to the ragweeds, Then there is the skin test, where- by the patient is tested out with various kinds of protid substances. Another test, the foodtest, is in- vestigated by finding out whether the patient has ever eaten anything, at any time in his life, that seemed to aggravate the asthma, or disa- gree in any way. That is, by caus- ing swelling of tongue, nausea, sores on mouth, vomiting, pain in stom- ach, and so forth, Eggs, milk, and wheat flour, although good foods, may sometimes cause the trouble, Then there is the asthma caused by contact with animals, the dand- ruff from fur and feathers, from pet dogs, horses fowl. And finally the use of orris root in face and tooth powders, and dry shampoos, may be the exciting cause of the asthmatic attacks, Even the house "dust" may be the kind that causes the irritation, and patients have gone from their homes to another in the same city for a short stay, and the asthmatic attacks have disappeared. Nose and throat troubles are also the cause of many cases. What does all this mean? That sufferers from this miserable condition must not sit down and ac- cept asthma as something that has to be endured, but should go to their family doctor and have him investigate the casé fully from the .ahove standpoints." Persistent effort is almost surg to locate the cause, and the proper treatment. WELL KNOWN B.C. MINE RESUMES FULL OPERATION Long Adit to Ore Bodies Well Advanced At the Florence Mine one of the longest Adit Tunnels in the Province is well on towards its objective, This Tunnel is being run to cut the estab- lished ore bodies on No. 5 level at a vertical depth of 550 ft. below the horizon of No. 5 level, Another few months will see the completion of this work. Extensive mining equipment in- cluding a two-hundred-ton mill and an expensive power plant, which handicapped their operations, was installed some time ago. The Com- pany, however, has contracted with the City of Nelson, at the exceeding- ly low rate of $22.00 a horsepower, for Hydro Electric Power, and the installation of their own pole line to connect with the city's main transmission line is now being built, The Company has produced over $1,000,000 worth of ore when lead was at very low price, and its activi- ties have figured in the annual re- In former times, asthma was sim- |: port of the Minister of Mines of | the Province since 1915, from which |' date the property has either been |.*® bodies on No. 5 Tunnel level, and completing the main lateral prior to getting the details of the. mill tuned up for production.

SMALLER NATIONS APPEAL T0 POWERS Seek to Have the Larger Nations Reduce Armaments Voluntarily Geneva. Sept. 18.--An appeal to the big powers, both members and non-members of the League of Na- tions, to follow the lead of the smaller neutrals and reduce their armaments voluntarily, will be made at next week's assembly. The drive for disarmament will then be re- sumed and the powers will he urged to make cuts to the lowest stand- ard consistent with security without waiting for conclusion of a general disarmament conference. I"ormer Premier Sandler of Swed- en, M. De Brouckers of Belgium, President Hambro of the Norwegian Parliament and delegates from Holl- and, Czecho-Slovakia, Finland and Switzerland are supporting the plan. As a result of the week's debates in the assembly commissions, it is admitted that even if the League's preparatory disarmament committee re-assembles in November it will A gocurity and guarantees rath- er than continue fruitless debates on technical disarmament, Count Von Bernstorff has indi- cated that Germany clings to a the- ory opposite to the one held by Eng- land and France, He holds that dis- armament will promote a feeling of security as opposed to their thessa that it is necessary to guarantee se- curity before reducing armaments, Urging the voluntary disarma- ment gesture. M. Sandler declared: "The great naval and military powers having failed to agree con- cerning disarmament, they should now give proof of their good-will and sincerity by wiping out super- fluous naval and military establish- ments, rather than await League ac- tion as an excuse." Earl Lyton, India's representa- tive on the assembly, holds out lit- tle hope of progress, saying: "There is very little use, perhaps a danger, in reiterating year uy year the conviction which is already expressed in the covenant that na- tions must proceed to disarm." And now the year, as Longfellow would have said, will soon be "stand- ing with reluctant feet where the coal and ize man meet."--Toronto Star.
