FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1929 A BOOST FOR THE OSHAWA FAIR votes a special section to the 1 be in full swing on Tuesday, of next week. Each year, f South Ontario who iti ibili the fair direc- tions of responsibility on i he t of effort into the lous amoun torate, put a tremend planning of this big event, for the sole reason of doing their best to keep alive and growing an insti- tution which has come to have a definite place in . ity life. : Bin J of The Times is published Nil only one purpose in view, that of convincing he people of Oshawa that the annual fair is their far, and that it lies in their hands whether or not it is a success. The directors have done their utmost to secure program attractions and competition classes which will make the fair an occasion of genuine in- terest. As a small city fair, the Oshawa Fair has few equals in the province of Ontario, and in 'its many features it provides for a measure of enter- tainment and instruction which cannot be excelled by other fairs in its class. "The Times is boosting the it believes that the fair has an -important part to play in the life of the community. Not only is it a show window for the products of the district, whether these be of the farm or of the factory. It is a gathering place for the community, a place where young and old alike meet and renew acquaintance- ships with friends of the past. In this latter respect it has a sentimental appeal that should draw a large Today The Times de Oshawa Fair, which wil Wednesday and Thursday those public-spirited citizens © Oshawa Fair because crowd within its gate. The Oshawa Fair is the people's fair, They can wake it or break it. This year's program is designed with a view to making the people of Oshawa and South Ontario realize that the fair is worth while, and that they should accord it the measure of support which it deserves. If that support is given, there can be no fear of the outcome, and The Times joins its appeal to that of the fair board and the others who are cq-operating in the production of this Oshawa Fair special addition for the one hundred per cent co-operation of every citizen of Oshawa and district in making the 1929 Fair the greatest in the history of the institution. THE PRODUCTS OF OSHAWA Oshawa is, from an industrial standpoint, probably the best known city in the Dominion of Canada, for the reason that it has, by its rapid development, earned a considerable amount of prominence. Yet it is' somewhat strange to find, in travelling around the country, and meeting men from other cities, and men who are supposedly well-informed, that there are few people: who really know Oshawa. They 4Anow Oshawa because it is the home of General Motors of Canada, Limited, and they have the mis- taken impression that there is no: other industry in the city. * "ow * 2 For instance, it is surprising to find, in conversa- tion with men from other places, that they know little or nothing of splendid concerns such as the Pedlar People, Fittings, Limited, the Ontario Malle- able Iron Company, thé Robson Leather Company, the W. E. Phillips Company, Limited, the Oriental Textiles, Limited, the Schofield Woollen Mills, Lim- ited, the William Piano Company, Limited; and the other industries which make a large and vital con- tribution to the industrial life of the community, No one would wish to detract from the position of pre-eminence which the General Motors of Canada, Limited, occupies in the city. That place is known and established, but even the officials of that com- pany would have no desire that the other important lines of industry, some of them in no way allied to the production of automobiles, should be overlooked. * * . While. there is a great need in Oshawa for the development of a diversified form of industry, yet, to some extent that diversification is already here. The people of Oshawa themselves would be agree- ably surprised if they could see an exhibition of the many types of articles which are produced in the local factories. Such an exhibition would be a valu- able event from the standpoint of showing the citi- zens what goods are actually manufactured in the city, for it might show them the opportunities which exist for the buying of products made in their own co city. * * * * Buying of home products is one of the many ways in which civic patriotism can be exercised in a prac- tical form. A city of 25000 people represents a strong buying power, and if, whenever opportunity offered, that buying power expended its money in <i It the purchase of products made in Oshawa, it would give local industfy a decided stimulus. Unfortunately, there is a false glamor to articles brought in from elsewhere, and at the same time, there is an ignor- ance of the diversity of goods produced in Oshawa that militates against the buying of Oshawa-made products by the people of the community. . 2s 2 a Oshawa is known as the Motor City, and it has every right to the title. But it would be a gond thing for Oshawa if its own people, as well as out. siders, could be made to realize that there are scores of articles of everyday use made in the city, and which, have an important part to play in the industrial life of the community, A SIGN OF GROWTH It is interesting .to note the increase that is re- corded in the school population of Oshawa in the term which has just begun. On the opening day there was an increase of 174 scholars in the public schools, and an increase, also in the separate school. On Monday next, when the Collegiate and Vocational Institute opens its doors, it is logical to expect another increase recorded there. By next week, too, the stragglers in the public and separate schools will have registered, so that there will be a further growth in the school population of the city. The increase in the number attending the public schools shows that Oshawa is still going ahead. It is a sure indication of growth, and growth of the right kind. Young children are increasing in num- bers, and these children, of, course, homes occupied in the city. For that reason, there 1s every reason to anticipate that when the city as- sessor has completed his report for the year 1929, it will be found that Oshawa has once again made a substantial gain in its total population, represent more WHAT WILL BE THE ISSUE? ------ : Signs are increasing that the province of Ontario is to be plunged into a provincial elections campaign this fall. It has been .asserted very definitely tat at a banquet to be given in his honor on September 19, in the city of Toronto, Premier Ferguson will announce the election date, and give a statement of the reasons for calling an election, It will be rather hard for the premier, at this junc- ture, to justify the calling. of an election long before the legal life of his government has expired. One can hardly imagine what issue he will drag forth on which to hang his election campaign. Of course Mr. Ferguson is a shrewd politician, and he may have figured that the "going is good" for the Conservative party. While in his mind that nay constitute a good and sufficient reason for calling an .election, it will hardly satisfy the unbiased section of the electorate The present situation makes one wonder just whit kind of an election campaign this is going to be There is already a deplorable lack of interest in the political affairs of the province and the Dominion particularly among the young section of the dec, torate, and it will require something out of the or- dinary in the way of an election issue to keep the campaign from being dull and mediocre, : Something which will really arouse the fighting spirit of the political parties is necessary in ordee to make the campaign one that will arouse sufficient intgrest to bring out a representative vote, Any issue of that kind seems sadly lacking at the present time, and it will be decidedly interesting to learn from the premier's address on September 19 the grounds on which he bases his decision to appeal to the people. ' : lh | BRITISH OPTIMISM : The manner in which the people of Great Britain ave met, and, to a large extent overcome the diffi- culties which have confronted them during the years which have passed since the war has evoked the ad- miration and praise of the whole civilized world, [It used to be said, during the dark days between 1914 and 1918, that Britain always "muddled through," and yet that is hardly the proper term to use in seeking for some explanation of the British characteristics Which make Britain so strong in the face of trial, : Martin Vogel, a former sub-treasurer of the United States, gives one of the finest reasons for this British faculty of coming out on top, In a statement which is reproduced in the current issues of The Empire Mail, published in London, England, he is quoted as saying: "The more I come to England the more 1 admire the courageous spirit with which you are facing the terrible hnancial burdens left By the war. The position presented by the hrst post-war Budget seem:d insuperable. A year later I came back and found that the un- precedented demands had been met, Gee,' I said to myself, 'that country does the impos- sible with a smile.' "You do things that no other people have the courage to do, and that is why you have such world-wide power. One of your most world-wide institutions--Lloyd's--has built up its great organization on taking risks, but the risks you take are intelligent risks. . "These small British Isles would never have been the power théy are but for this irre- sistible optimism ot their people. In the United States we have hesitated to invest our money outside that counfry but every corner of the globe has attracted British capital. Such a country and such people can meet any difficulties." : There is little need to add anything to Mr. Vogel's impressions of the British people. They speak for themselves.

NOT THE WHOLE THING (London Free Press) It seems to be the custom to di- rect all distinguished visitors to To- ronto. The Queen City is a beauti- ful and attractive metropolis and they are always assured of a warm wel- come, but men who are here to study Ontario and Canada do not always | get the right angle by a visit to To- ronto. Toronto is far from being the whole of Ontario and too often mis- represents rather than represents the views of the province as a whole. LESSON FROM PALESTINE (Ottawa Journal) In Palestine a serious situation hus developed in consequence of an at- tack by Arabs upon the Jewish popu- lation, Latest reports say that the rioting continues that five British warships have been ordered to the Holy Land from Malta, that troops are being despatched from Egypt and that United States residents of Jeru- salem have appealed to the United States State Department for protec- tion. People sometimes ask why Britain doesn't clear out of India, out of Mesopotamia, out of Egypt? A partial answer, we think, is sup- plied by this episode in Palestine. If Britain were to abandon India, what would most likely happen among the various sects in India? What would happen in the Near East? What in Palestine ? The possibilities are worth think- ing over by the easy critics of "im- perialism."

Barton, M.D. g DECIDING ABOUT TONSILS The summer holidays are over and you may be starting your youngster off to school for the first time. In most schools now there is an cxamination of the children by a doc- tor or nurse. It is quite possible that you will get a note from the school informing you that your youngster's tonsils are not in a healthy condition and advis- ing that you see your. family doctor or a throat specialist about it. Now large smooth round tonsils, unless they are obstructing the brea- thing, are not usually removed, It is the ragged unhealthy looking type that is the cause of trouble, and should be Yemoved. Your first thought should not be to get annoyed at the school auth- orities for trying to tell you what to do with your youngster, but to fe- member that these authorities arc trying to protect your child from fu- ture illness, and the 'other children in the school from developing sore throats or tonsilitis from contact with your child, Nor should you be alarmed and rush to a throat specialist and re- quest that he remove the child's ton- sils forthwith, You should as to what should be done, However, if the school authorities and your family doctor both advise the removal of the tonsils you would not be doing right by the child if you fail to have them removed. The tonsils are useful organs. They filter out poisons and kill off offend- ing organisims and so a child is safer with them than without them if they are healthy. If they are not healthy what may happen? Frequent sore throats, absences from school, liability to various in- fections. Dr. A. D, Kaiser, Rochester, N. Y studied 439 children rheumatism. First attacks occurred twice as fre- quently in children whose tonsils were present as in those whose ton- sils had been removed. Now rheumatism is the cause of the majority of cases of heart disease and that is just the chance you'are tak- ing if you do not have discased ton- sils removed, I know that it is often a hard mat- ter .to decide what to do, but I'm trying to place these facts before you in an effort to help you with your decision. who had acute (Registered in accordance with the Copyright Act.) consult your famiiy| doctor first, and be guided by him Head Office: BAY AND VELLiNGToN 8.

STAUFFER, EDITOR OF THE ARKANSAS CITY (KAN- SAS) TRAVELER, SAYS: THAT it has been said the world war brought us mass production. We know mass distribution had its in- ception soon after the close of the war. Advertising bridges the gap between mass production and mass distribution. Whenever these two great economic factors can thrive without advertising, just that soon will advertising pass. But advertising is so much the warp and woof of mass distribution that it is difficult to visualize it in any other role than one of growing importance, It is true that millions of dollars are wasted annually in ineffec- tive advertising, but few commo- dities have the potentialities ad- vertising holds. Used rightly it holds the power of Alladin's lamp In that respect it is a good deal like electricity. To be effective electricity must be carefully wired, motored and placed under absolute control. In like manner advertising has moved mountains when it has been applied with in- telligence and persistence. BUT THE GREATEST OF ALL INGREDIENTS IN ADVERTISING IS TRUTH. WITHOUT THAT FACTOR, THOUGH THE SUM TOTAL OF ALL THE WORLD'S INTELLIGENCE BE APPLIED, THE END IS FAILURE. AND NOW FOR SAFETY (Farmers' Advocate) Automobiles are manufactured that will travel as fast as 100 miles per hour on a level highway. That ought to be fast enough. The manu- facturers might now turn their at- tention to front end bumpers that will absorb the shock when two cars meet head-on, and to safety devices for the protection of passengers when the car leaves the highway. Now, that speed has been achieved, we might pay some attention to safety.
