WEPRESENTATIVES IN 0a, Powers and Stone, Inc, New York and Chicago, mm 4 WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1928 PII TECHNICAL SCHOOL TE The project for a technical school for Osh. awa was advanced another very important step when the City Council last night with- out a dissenting vote granted the application of the Board of Education for the necessary funds to erect and equip the building and make some necessary changes in the present collegiate building, The total cost of the work has been placed at $261,000 of which the Government will pay $111,000, leaving $160,000 as the city's share, As we have pointed out previously, it is essential that certain definite steps be taken before the close of this year in order that the Government grant referred to be assured, This because the Federal Govern- ment has announced that it will not make any more grants toward technical education after the present year, Therefore the city by acting now stands to secure a school and equipment worth $261,000 for the sum of $160,000, Rather too good an opportunity to pass up, ! As to the wisdom of a technical school in Oshawa there can be no doubt, If such a school is needed in any city in Canada then it is more than justified here, Academic education is alright and will always have its place but for fitting boys and girls to take their place in this community as the men and women of tomorrow it seems to us that technical education should play an extreme. ly important part, Incidentally the erection of the new school as part of the present collegiate will com- plete and round out the building, as the old front part will be replaced with a fully mod- ern structure and one that citizens will take a real pride in pointing out to visitors to the city, We understand it is the intention of the Board to secure tenders and proceed with the work at a very early date with a view -to completing it before school re-opens next September, This would seem to be the wise course and we hope that no delays will oc- cur to upset these plans, AN EGG TENDS TO BE BAD A great electric company, in its incessant hunt for new conveniences, has evolved a de- vice to promote healthful longevity among eggs, Here is a problem which has stirred the minds of men from time immemorial, There has been no difficulty about preserv- ing the egg's contour and its outward ap- pearance of well-being, 'Archaeologists in Tibet are constantly bringing to light eggs 'laid eons and eons ago and still, to"all ap- pearances, in perfect condition, The prob- lem has been rather to enable the egg at heart. to grow old gracefully, and this, be it known, is not the egg's natural wont, Like some men, it is middle-aged at birth-- at that very moment it has already begun to decay, was the instant it was crested, So the scientific mi les the problem and offers 8 machine which passes the egg along conveyors through an oil bath to sem its outer pores and keep microbes of decay from the egg's inner being, We should prefer to think this will prove a success; but we wonder, Water-glass paraflin and lime solutions, operating on similar principles, have failed to save the egg entirely from itself. They delay its dis- solution, but the fact remains that sn old egg is always an old egg. To the undis- cerning it may seem new and unsullied, but, | It is never as good again as it THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, 'WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1928 EF i ® i! ; os El i Stacey replied that the Board of Works had run out of funds, Then Alderman Harman wanted to know how it was Alderman Stacey could put the streets in the south-east ward which he represents, in such good shape, but could:do nothing for Cedardale, The other members of Council took very little interest in the matter, Did not Al derman Harman "represent" Cedardale? Therefore was it not up to him to fight his own battles? The fact remained that under the much- touted "ward system" an alderman appeared to have failed to get a few loads of much needed gravel on certain streets, a situation which would certainly be dealt with more effectively if every member of the Council had been elected by general vote and was pledged to serve the entire city, even in the most trivial matter, Contrast the incident with the treatment the same ward has re. ceived from the Board of Education in the matter of school accommodation, And there is not a single member of the Board resident in Cedardale, BORROWING TROUBLE Despite the fact that most troubles never happen, man goes on fearing something that may not come to pass and which he, by no means within his power, could prevent, should it be destined to come about, Some Canadians are reported to be alarmed over predictions that there will be no summer next year, They may be relying for this foreboding on a fortune teller or a long-dis- tance weather prophet, both equally without accurate knowledge of the future, They have harked back to 1816, which is said to have been a 'year without a summer," What has happened once may happen again " but there is no assurance that it will, There is a difference between having fore. thought for that which man can control and worrying about that which is beyond his power to influence, Man is not responsible for what nature hands out, though he is re- sponsible for the manner in which he does his part, The problem of the kind of a sum- mer 1920 will have may be solved when it is reached, It is foolish to reckon losses now, It is more probable they will not hap- pen, ' EDITORIAL NOTES The man who thinks he cannot be fooled already is, A cynic is a man who mistakes cheerful- ness for ignorance, Only thing you can tell by some watches is what time it isn't, Gasoline was never so plentiful, so look out for an increase in price, S------ Gold is one of the few things in the world that can be either a disease or a remedy, Some people do well to listen to other peo- ple's troubles, They forget their own, Bit of Verse | HER GOLDEN KEY There is a bright spot in my life serene, Above sophisticated clouds, unseen By narrowed eyes, where I can hide and Jet Life's demons far below--forgotten--fret, Two starry seas of blue shine out for me From filmy halos fine, pnd aimlessly Upon a face that doth but joy express-- Two little waving hands pound tenderness, Ed Ah, could this fantasy of mine but last To shape my world, sll substance fade to past, And present breath but echoes of the soul!

So as we grow older and do less physical work, it is only good sense that we cut down on our food intake, because if food is not digested completely and used by the body, it is a source of irritation to the blood vessels. Irritated blood vessels mean high blood pressure and continued high blood pressure means old age. Copyright Act.) VERNON BOOHER CONVICTION QUASHED AT EDMONTON Edmonton, Dee. 5~The conviction against Vernon Booher, under sen- tence to hang Dee, 15 for the mur» der of his mother, brother and two hired men near Mannville in July last was quashed by the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court' of Alberta Tuesday, A new trial was ordered. This will probably take place in January, The grounds for the setting aside of the conviction were that during the trial the Crown prosecutor elicited from Inspector ancock of the Alberta Provincial Police a statement that Booher had made a confession, This was after Chief Justice Simmons, presiding udge, had ruled out Booher's con- ession of the murders, Neil.

Maclean, K.C., counsel for the defence, argued such a state- ment settled the case in the minds of the jury, Headlights mounted at the ends of new automobile bumpers are claimed to {lluminate the road suf- ficiently, while they are too low to interfere with drivers of ap- proaching cars.

The committee will commence tak- ing testimony on Jan. 7, with the idea of having a general tariff bill ready for presentation at the extra session of the next Congress, which, it is believed, will be summoned by Mr, Hoover within thirty days af- ter his inauguration. The whole subject of farm relief is likely to be postponed until the extra session. President Coolidge did not deliver {a speech at the opening of the ses- sion, but sent a voluminous written message which was read to the two | Houses this afternoon.
