Powers and Stone, Inc, New York and Chicago. $4.00 @ year; United' MONDAY, APRIL 29, 1929 GENERAL MOTORS FORGING AHEAD The production report of General Motors of Can- ada, Limited, for the first three months of 1929 means much to the people of Oshawa. The increase of forty per cent in production, as compared with the same period last. year, is an indication of how Oshawa's greatest industry, the industry which means so much to the city, is forging ahead. Greater production, on 'sucli a large scale, must reflect itself in greater prosperity for Oshawa, and that prosperity is spread out into all classes of the community. Still more encouraging from the standpoint of Osh- "awa is the.prediction made by J. H. Beaton, the general sales manager, as to the future of the cone pany's. activities. In making his report, he says:-- "Our production schedule for the next few months is based on a belief that favorable buy- ing conditions will continue throughout the Do- minion, and that the steady increase in General Motors' sales will be maintained." : * This means, of course, that the general prosperity of the country is finding its reflection in the greater buying of automobiles, and that production schedules in the local factory will have to be kept up-to meet this increasing demand. This means more business jor the Oshawa plant, more employment and wages for Oshawa workmen, and bigger business in every direction. for the community. The Times takes this opportunity of . congratulate ing General Motors of Canada, Limited, on its splene did 1929 record, which has been made possible be- cause its products are of the high type that merits a large public demand. And coupled with these con- gratulations is the hope that the future will be even brighter than Mr. Beaton expects it to be. THE CALL OF OUTDOORS Daylight saving is here, and the spring weather, bringing with them the usual accompaniments cf springtime in: Canada. The call of the out of doors is insistent, and soon it will be hard to find audi- ences for indoor gatherings of any kind. Out in the parks, the sounds of bat and ball are heard, and Mz. Average Citizen can be seen in his garden these evenings, preparing seed-beds for the, season of bloom-time and harvest which lies ahead. These long evenings, and the spring weather, carry: with them a contagious call. to be outdoors. And there can be no finer way of using these evenings than by spending an hour or two with the digging | fork and the rake out in the garden, In this country and community, the citizens are fortunate in that there is an abundance of garden space, so that, with very few exceptions, this healthful recreation is pos. sible and profitable. The time is coming when the garden beautiful and the garden bountiful will be something to admireiand enjoy. But that enjoyment, can only come as the reward of labor now, of hard work in the time of preparation" which seems to fave come upon us so suddenly, bringing with it the joys of planning and working, so as to be worthy of the benefits of sum- ner 'and autumn. WHAT'S IN A NAME? id The people of the British Isles have for genera tions had a horror of the word "protection" sotfar | as their tariff system is concerned. The late' Joseph Chamberlain was one of the greatest advocates" of that system of tariffs, and although he tried to serve it up to the electorate as a sugar-coated pill under the title of "tariff reform," he was never successful in 'securing general support for it. Every time it " has been used as an election platform ery, it has been responsible for the defeat of the party sponsor- ing it, until even today, with British industry suffer- ing from keen foreign competition, no politician dare come out on a straight protectionist platform. : In spite of that, protection is an actuality in Bri- tain today. But it does not go under that name. Jt is known as safeguarding Of industries. That sounds much better, and does not have the same effect on the minds of the people as the old term of protection. Yet the name does not mean anything, for it is the same old policy, although handled in a "slightly different way. g In fact, so close is the system of safeguarding' of industries to the old plan of protection that the Con- servative party is now secking to set up a safeguard- ing tribunal, In Canada, this body is known as the Advisory Tariff Board, and its functions have to do with investigating tariff problems as they effect vari- ous industries, and making recommendations to the government as 2 result of its investigations, But there must be something in a name, particularly at election time. "Safeguarding tribunal" sounds much more impressive than the plain, unvarnished title, "Tasiff board," even although the two bodies have exactly similar functions. And the difference in name may mean a great deal to the number of votes that | will be cast for Conservative candidates in the com- ing British election. BRITISHERS ON TOP Men of the British race are, in these modern days, demonstrating to the world that their race is by no means as decadent as it was thought to be a few years ago. There was a time, and not so very long ago, when the United" States claimed to have the supremacy in many of the departments of human en- deavor by which men are judged, but recent events in "the world of athletic achievement, and in other ficlds as well, have proven that the British Empire caf' still stand high in the list of mations, and can produce men, who, in their own chosen fields, have nothing to fear from international competition. One has only to keep in touch with the sporting pages of the newspapers, and with. the front pages as well, to realize this. The whole world of athletics: has been thrilled by 'the wonderful prowess of Percy Williams, a Vancouver boy, in. defeating all comers in short races: Coupled with his name must go that of Phil Edwards, another Britisher, who as a middle distance runner has been showing his heels to the best that the United States could produce. With their names, too, must be mentioned those of Jimmy Ball' and Johnny Fitzpatrick, runners. who. have, in conjunction with their tivo cofleagues, Williams and Edwards, left behind the fastest men of the continent. Then, too, Johnny Miles, of Nova Scotia, has led the way in long distance running; defeating the pick of' the United States in the famous Boston marathon in' record time. And last week a team of British golfers defeated: a United States team and won the coveted Ryder Cup. The girls of Canada, too, have been leading the way in their own field of athletics, for the Canadian "girls relay team has been winning over all' the crack United States runpers, and its individual members, each a star, have been also winning honors in inter- national competition. "And Miss Ethel Catherwood is still the world's champion in her own sphere of high jumping. Britishers all, these girls, leading the way with all'others following. In other fields of achievement, too, Britishers have been taking leadership over the world, - Major' Se- ' grave has already established his fame by breaking the world's record for an automobile dash of one mile, and Captain Campbell, another Englishman, has established. new records for longer distance, all far ahead of what others have been able to accomplish, In the air, too, Britishers are leading, for a Bri- tish airman holds the record for the fastest flight ever made, and now a British acroplane has made another record by. a non-stop flight from London to Karachi, India; a distance of rwell: over 4,000 miles; British people are not prone to boast of their own "achievements. The art of ballyhgo has yet to be ac- quired by the British people. Yet they have done so much in' the way. of breaking tecords, and leading the representatives of other nations in international competition, that one feels impelled to point with pride to these achievements, and, if you like, to cite them as proof that the British race is not nearly so decadent 'as it was supposed ta be. EDITORIAL NOTES Grain grading has come in for so much discussion fately that it looks as if the proper subject to discuss would be grain degrading. It is said 'that the British Liberals have four thousand speakers ready for their campaign. Prob ably this is one way of finding work forethe unem- ployed. A Hamilton man who went through the war un- ecathed was killed by an automobile. In these days the automobile is becoming more deadly than the 'machine gun. The ples for the rural mail carriers is by no means premature. These loyal and faithful workers have long been deserving of more consideration than they have been given. The Australian cadets are more anxious than ever to visit Chicago since their leader received an anony- 'mous letter warning them not to go there. Of course they would be.

Barton, M.D HOW WE DIFFER FROM ONE i ANOTHER Those of us who have had an op- portunity of examining athletes re- presenting all branches of athletics come across many little peculiarities about the outer part of the body. Dif- ferences in the individual as to color of eyes, insides of chest, one side I v the other side lacking a portion of the huge chest muscle; one leg longer than the other; one foot longer or wider than the other; an extra toe or finger; bony lumps on different parts of the body; and other unusual conditions, Now these individuals are all ath- letes in excellent condition -able to take part in the most strenuous forms of sport. These outward peculiarities have little or no cffect upon their health or strength. Similarly there are dificrences inside such as an extra rib on one side, an extra loop of intestine, some of the bones of the spinal column that have grown together, peculiarities in the shape of bones or organs. And these little peculiarities generally speaking give no trouble; do not interfere with the working of the body in any way. However, there are some peculiari- ties or differences from normal that matter. For instance, the ductless or cn- docrine glands in the body have regulating influence on the different processes, The thyroid gland work- ing properly is like the proper draft for a stove or furnace; the fucl burns well and gives its maximum of heat and minimum of ash, If the thyroid gland is too active, it is like a forced draft in a furnace which burns. Up the fuel in a short space of time. If the thyroid is not secreting suffici- ently the draft is poor and the fuel, instead of being burned or uscd, i stored away as fat in the body, The adrenal gland, one above cach kidney, have.a sort of check on the thyroid gland and help to slow up and strengthen processes which would be rapid and weak. And so with other ductless glands. You can readily sce therefore that when a physician undertakes the treatment of a casc he must keep these facts in mind. Further, you and I inherit some little peculiarities of mind or man- nerisms from our parents, and this 18 heart ailment and also quietly out- line a manner of life that must be undertaken, With another individual with a condition much less serious, he must use the most careful and cheering language possible, or the individual will sink into the depths of despair.
