Powers and Stone Inc., New York and Chicago FRIDAY, MARCH 14, 1930 AN IMPORTANT DUTY The list of nominees for directorships on the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce, an- nounced yesterday, is an imposing one. Any of the twenty-four men whose names are being submitted would do credit to the or- ganization, and could be depended upon to _give loyal and unselfish service in the best interests of the city. The nomination of so splendid a list places a duty and responsibility on every member of the Chamber of Commerce. That duty consists of using the ballot which will be sent to him and doing his part in choosing the eight men who will, for the next two years, occupy places on the board of direc- tors of the Chamber. An organization of this kind can only function successfully "when its 'officers have the full confidence' and support of all members, and these can only. be possible where there is a representa tive vote in the annual election. In passing, one must acknowledge the debt of gratitude which is owing to George . W. McLaughlin for his service as president of thé Chamber of Commerce for the last two years., Through his endeavors, and those of the men who worked with him, the organization has been placd on a sound foot- x ing, and has, even in that short period, been "able to abeomplish 'a great deal on behalf of the city. Mr. McLaughlin has been an able |i "president, and the man Who is elécted to succeed him, no matter who he may be, will have a hard task in-keeping up to the high standard which he has set, WILL RELIEVE MUNICIPALITIES Col. L. R. LaFleche, Dominion president of the Canadian Legion, makes an interests ing observation regarding the War Veter- ans' Allowance Bill, which has referred to the special committee on veterans' pro- " blems by the House of Commons. He points out that if this bill is brought into legislative éffect, it will relieve to an appre- ciable extent the demands made-upon muni- cipal- relief funds and charitable organiza- tions. This must be apparent even in Oshawa, During the last winter, the city relief de. partment, the local branch of the Legion, - and the Associated Welfare Societies have - spent a able sum of money in pro-. "viding relief for the families of war veter- ne who have become unemployable, not alone of the lack of em in "'the city, but because their h has been * such as to prevent them ng regular "work.

There are several things to be re- membered, however, when scouts go hiking, and some of these are as follows : ~ (1)=Always sec that your footwear is in good shape. Overrun heels and large darns are sometimes the means of taking the pleasure out of hiking. (2)~Pack your equipment neatly #0 that you do not look like a glor- ified Christmas tree. (3)--Take water or milk with you if you are not sure of the water supply at the other end. Do not take carbonated beverages, as they do not quench the thirst as well as water, (4)~Keep to the highway. Do not walk through fields unnecessarily or without permission. Remember new wheat looks like old grass, but is damaged easier, * (5)--~Be careful of your fires. Fire out of control is ofie of the worsty enemies of our time. See that your fire is only just large enough for your purpose. See that it is located where there is no chance of it sprea.
