The two Belleville papers which have now amalgamated were the last to survive the general wave of : mergers 4h. has swept over both Canada and the States in. recent years. Both are Dafets with a long and honorable history, Belleville Intelligencer having been es- tablished in 1834 and the Ontario in 1870, and during these years they have served community safely and well, It is interesting to note that while there . have been many newspaper amalgamations of changing two-newspaper cities into com. served by one paper, there has not been & single case of a reversion to a two- paper city. This is abundant evidence that 'been well served, and well ving one strong newspapér two of Sometimes Indifferent amalgamations have made pos- & sible the publication' of bigger and better h fo Hi Ng Fa i \ : ' , able to cater in a larger and ore comprehensive way the needs of communities; The economic sound.

Under the guidance of W.

Ontario in general also sees through the little game. It is well known that part of Ontario's Fleet Street would have no moye British viceroys appointed. The idea is have Canadians named. There is nothing wrofig with the idea, but there is a whole lot wrong with its champions. CONFIDENCE IN FUTURE One 61 the encouraging signs of the pre- sent time in Canada is the confidence which is being expressed by men in prominent places in the industrial and 'commercial world 'in the future prosperity of the coun- try. 'In spite of the nation-wide condition of depression which is apparent, there is no sign of diminution in the faith which these men have in their belief tha" this is but a temporary and passing phase. This view is well expressed in a recent intetview given by Arthur B. Purvis, of Canadian Industries, Limited, in which he said: "The annual reports for 1929 of nu. merous important Canadian concerns indicate a continuation of the steady progress made in the Dominion during recent years. Confidénce in the future prosperity of Canada is fllustrated, not only by the financial reports and statis- tics; but by the trend of institutional and general advertising." 4 Confidence begets prosperity, and so long as men in big business have this spirit, and radiate it throughout the general population . ol the country, there is little danger of Can- ada becoming over-burdened with She apisit of , Optimism is the sp a is Supenion. and so long as that optimism is justified by the general outlook, it is a good thing. for any country or community. DEFECTIVE BRAKES The Toronto police are starting out on their annual campaign of testing automobile brakes, In other years,- this testing of brakes has produced evidence that there are many cars being driven on the streets and highways with brakes that are quite inef- fective inf & moment which calls for quick action. This unquestionably creates a haz ard, not only to the motorist himself, but to other motorists and to pedestrians, and it is no longer possible for a man to escape re- sponsibility for an accident on the plea that his brakes refused to operate. The wise motorist, of course, is the man who takes precaution to see that his brakes are in perfect working condition, without waiting for police inspection to prove this to him, The obj! of police is to pro- mote safety in driving, rather than to pro- secute motor drivers, and motorists should be just as interested in this as are the police. With spring opening up, and the busy mo- toring season close at hand, it would be ra- ot / driver to have cp expross . to the West. In.
