London, With 10,860 cars for over 67, re of ity chief industryy but also proportion of cars owned by "Interest see THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1929 in 1922 there were. just over half a.million motor ver hicles In Canada, so that the number has doubled in the last six years, Each succeeding year has shown a tremendous increase, and in the last four years that increase has totalled over 100,000 annually, Looking at the figures for Ontario, one finds that in 1907 there were 1,550 motor vehicles in the pro- vince, or seventy-five per cent of the number for the whole Dominion, In 1928, Ontario had a regis- tration of 491,140, op-less than fifty per cent of the total, Thus, while Ontario leads aM the provinces in the number of motor vehicles, Quebec coming second with 148473, the other provinces, and particularly the 'western, provinces, have shown a much more rapid, rate of Increase, due, no doubt, to the rapid growth they have also shown in population, This record shows phenomenal growth, and many people wonder how long it is going to continue, Yet the answer is not hard to find, Just so long as Canada keeps on going ahead in wealth and in popu lation, and that progress seems to be but begin ning, 80 long will the number of motor yehicles owned by its people increase, Although the Dominion is now over sixty years old, it is but a healthy young- ster in development, Its resources are now only being tapped, and as they develop as wealth pro- ducers, and attract to this country increasing num- bers of people, so will the potential markets for automobiles produced by Canadian factories increase, Those who speak of the automobile industry reaching the saturation point should remember that that will never come until Canada stops makihg progress, and that time seems to be yet far away in the dim and distant future, And by that time, possibly, the pre- sent automobile factories may be turning out aero- planes by mass production. MORE EDUCATION The announcement by the president of the British Board of Education that the age of compulsory edu- cation in Britain Is to be raised from fourteen to fifteen has a double significance, It will serve the double purpose of giving a longer period of educa- tion for the children, und will also help to relieve the situation which is created by the hundreds of thou sands of young hoya and girls who leave school each year aml seek employment, The raising of the schoo! age in Britain to fifteen does not yet bring it up to the legal standard in Ontario, where the Adolescent School provides for compulsory educatioh dor most childeen up to the age of sixteen, Yet the standards of education m Britain are of such a severe nature that the compari- son of age done is not suMeient to give an adequate iden of the Mage reached by the children of the two places at the time of leaving 'school, Some Years ago, Dr. Francis Rol: Wheeler, a pro- minent educationist and writer of boys' and girly' books, of New York City, made an exhaustive sur« vey of education in the United States, in Canada, and in Great Dritain, As a result of that survey, he de- clared that a child of twelve in Britain had an edu. cation equal to a'child of fourteen in Canada, and a child of sixteen fn'the United States. On that basis the raising of the British school age to fifteen would ensure at least a satisfactory elementary, and, in many cases, a secondary education, to the children over there, From the standpoint of relieving the employment situation, however, the change is most important, Every year, hundreds of children of fourteen years old have been sent out from the schools to seek work. And in the predent condition of things in Great Britain, that hasisimply. meant ghutting an al- ready over-loaded labor market, It is not without cause that the change hak been heralded as ole more year of respite from drudgery for the 450,000 boys and girls who will be immediately affected by it, Of course, the employment situation will be relieved for only ong' year by this change, but there is, in the minds of the British people, that within that one year conditions will have so much improved that the chili. dren leaving school at that time will be able to find employment without disturbing the existing employ= ment situation, THE CHURCH MOVES IN Away up in the northern section of Manitoba is a new mining camp, that at Flin Flon, the scene of the greatest mining development of recent years in Cane ada, It is a new settlement, one which might well be regarded as an outpost of civilization in the northern wilds. Yet it is 'a striking fact that, new and rough as the settlement may be, the Church of Jesus Christ is there, A few days ago, at The Pas, Manitoba, there was inaugurated, with solemn ceremonies, the presbytery of Hudson Bay, which is, through the United church board of home missions, sending the light of the gospel into the mining arcus as fast as they are being opened up, At Flin Flon, a permanent manse for a minister is to be provided, and that point will be the centre of the religious life of a large area, This is a splendid example of the manner in which the Christian. Church of today is carrying out the command of its founder, "Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel" Tt {s no easy task for a minister to enter a field of the pioneer type, especi- ally in the mining areas which but a year or two ago were wild barrens. The task requires courage and a spicit of welfssacrifice akin to that of the Great Master hinelf. Yet the difficulties and the hard- ships which must be faced count for Nittle in the sight cated to this neble purpose,'and they who are carry- Ing the Bible and its message to the isolated miners of the northert camps are worthy to be known as the Canadian heroes of today, EDITORIAL NOTES ------------------ Oshawa people are fortunate, This is one of the few communities in which the prises of bread and milk have not been ingreased this week, the eause of many The Jrying pin 1s Sed to attac of fomel gi and inghigestion, And somes times it iy respon for sore heads well Si Tt p \ "The {oeheration "seems to' be' quite wire minded," says the Kingston Whig-Standard, the Kingston editor infer that the young folks of tos day are. light-headed ?

Barton, M.D. VALUE OF PERSPIRATION As students we Were taught that us perspiration or sweating took lige wids und wastes from the skin the skin thus took considerable work off the kidneys, In the warm weather the skin was so uetive and so much sweat wis pro- duced that the kidneys did not need to throw off much urine, but in the cool weather it was just the reverse and the kidneys had to do more work, Thus drugs and other methods were used to induce sweating and so ree méyve "poisons" from the system. Then a little later we were taught that the amount of poison removed by the skin even when sweating did not amount to anything, the benefit coming simply from the loss of heat and moisture by the body, However, physiologists now believe that the skin ean relieve the kidneys of much of their work, as they find that sweat contains some of the prine cipal substances of the urine, In ac. ute inflammation of the kidneys the sweat glands cannot take the place of the kidneys, but in old or chronic inflammation of the kidneys patients can be kept alive by sweating, Where there is high blood pres- sure and inflammed kidneys sweats ing is not always safe, nor is it cone sidered wise to use drugs or moist heat to induce sweating, Some pa« tients collapse from this treatment, Dry heat is the method that is safe and cffective Dr. F, M. Allen, describes the construction of a chamber which is 20 feet square and 8 feet high, prop. erly ventilated, and hot dry air used at a temperature of 140 to 180° F, The treatment can be given for twelve to fourteen hours a day, but the patients sleep in a cooler room As much as four quarts of sweat can be lost, This dry heat chamber has been found useful in rheumatic infections, skin ailments, and nose, throat and lung conditions, While the moist heat of the Turk. ish bath certainly helps many indiv. iduals, this dry heat is more effective and is much safer, It is certainly not so exhausting The. small electric light cabinet bath is helpful in mild cases, (Reiistered in accordance with the Copyright Act) My good friend, W, TF, Prisk, editor of the Long Beach, Californian, Press<Tele- gram, tells me that Long Heach is noted for Its wonders ful accomnmodations and warm friendliness to visitors, He In very proud of his home city and doesn't hesitate to tell the world about it, From what I have seen ho is right, as us. ual, and Hike all editors he In one of the homo town's best boosters, I am writing this In my room at the magnificent Breakers Hotel in Long Beach, This hotel towers 2605 feet into the sky.
