Tresidder, representative, REPRESENTATIVES IN U.S, Powers snd Stone In¢., New York and Chicago MONDAY, MAY 12, 1930 AN OFFICIAL TRIBUTE avery : holi- The Times has on several occasions with. in the last year found the public health de- partment of this city deserving of praise. It is more than Interesting, however, to find that this attitude is echoed in the official report of the district inspector of the On. tario Department of Health, issued recent. ly. His report places the public health de- partment of Oshawa on a high level, for it BAYS, ~ / in Oshawa, steady progress continues to be evidenced, There are now five public health nurses on the staff here, and the ser- vice of the health department is about the best of any city of similar size in the prov. ince." This is a report of which Oshawa can well be proud, and we believe that the people of this city are well aware that their health department is of the high standard which {s mentioned by the inspector, Under the guidance of Dr, T, W. G. McKay, it has been organized to give the most efficient and ef- fective possible service, and it is encourag- ing to find that his efforts are being recog. nized in the highly eulogistic report issued by the department. THE HUMANE SOCIETY Considerable interest is being aroused just now in the work of the Oshawa Hu. mane Society, which during the summer months in particular, finds an abundance of work fo do in caring for dumb animals whose owners are not very particular about looking after them. There is an important side to the work too, as is shown by the fact that on Friday the inspector of the society was called upon to deal with six cases of vicious dogs being allowed to run at large. Since such dogs are dangerous, the society is doing a distinct public service in taking care of them, so that citizens, and particu- larly children, will not be in danger of being bitten. Yet this is only one small phase of the work of the Oshawa Humane Society, which exists for the purpose of caring for those unable to speak for themselves, the dumb animals, whether these be horses used for pulling . vehicles, farm animals, or pets around the house. It is a work which should call forth a large emeasure of public sym. pathy and support, and the Society's appeal {or financial assistance at the end of the present week should meet with a hearty re. sponse, A -------- ---- THE WAY OF THE TRANSGRESSOR The tragic death of Tom Brown, formerly nighly- mayor of the ¢ity of Strat "in-Mexico City, affords a striking il- ion that the way of the transgressor , "Here was a young man who, appar- 'had everything that any man could desire in life.

Nowe. | "side Hoover.--W, : olio of material 'has just come to the editorial desk. It isa a extensive advertising Sampaigh which is bes ing carried on by this organization in the daily. newspapers of Canadas, ing is impressive, and it gives at least one instance of an industry which is showing constant growth and development, and which has faith in the part which advertis. ing can play in the continuation of that growth, Canadian Industries Limited is a company which has demonstyated how successful science and industry can be made to wot! hand fy hand Practically all of its products have produced as the result of chemi- cal research, and their laboratories are con- stantly at work seeking to develop new pro- ducts with a definite value in daily life, And, having found these products, the generous use of newspaper advertising builds up the market for them, so as to place them on a commercial basis, Science and advertising, in the case of this industry, are working hand in hand, since sclence lays the foun. dation for success, and advertising is re- sponsible for the building of the superstruc- ture of a constantly growing industry. AN OPEN-AIR CAMPAIGN If present Indications are verified, and the federal general election is held in August; it will be a trifle different: from any cam- paign of recent years, Election campaigns cannot be conducted without public meet- ings, and in the dog days, when the mercury hovers around ninety in the shade, and the evenings are sultry and the air heavy with humidity, it will not be easy to induce even the most interested of electors to spend two or three hours inside a hall listening to po- litical oratory. This means that the popular kind of cam- paigning will be that done out in the open- air, This leaves the way open for the dis- play of considerable ingenuity in attracting crowds, Political picnics, of course, are quite common nowadays, and this method will doubtless be used to the extreme dur. ing the campaign, And the old-fashioned garden party might very well be a means of camouflage to secure an audience on which to convince the electors as to how they should vote. One can quite easily con- ceive of very successful political meetings be- ing held at Lakeview Park, with the band- stand as the speakers' rostrum, or the half. time periods at lacrosse or soccerr football games could be used to good advantage by political aspirants wishing to find u crowd to address. All In all, it looks like being an interest- ing campaign, and the side that can use the most ingenious methods of inducing the people to turn out to be lectured on politi- cal issues will have a considerable advan- tage. CANADA'S STRENGTH BE. W. Beatty, president of the C. P, R, is one of Canada's outstanding optimists, Yet his optimism is backed by sound reas- oning. and there are few men in Canada who are in a better position than he is to ap- praise conditions throughout the Dominion, Speaking at the annual meeting of the shareholders of the company in Montreal a few days ago, Mr. Beatty declared that gen- eral confidence throughout Canada was un- shaken by the combination of unusual cone ditions which had developed the present sit. uation, that the country's strength had been effectively proven, and that the future was not to be viewed with any degree of appre- hension, These were the words of one whose des- tiny is linked up with that of the Dominion, by reason of his position as head of the Can- adian Pacific Railway, He knows whereof he speaks, and his optimism is worth spread- ing throughout the whole of Canada. The advent of normal business conditions is not far off, and when normalcy returns, it will not be long before the temporary depres. sion of the winter of 1920.1980 will be for- gotten in the new wave of prosperity which is as inevitable as the coming of day and night.

Dunning, whe succeeded the late James A. Robb as Finance Minister of Canada, appears from a press summary to be amply supplied with proposals for tariff changes clearly retaliatory against the United States, Canadian exports, ace cording to one estimate, will suffer an annual loss of $80,000,000 through the Hawley-Smoot Bill. The adop- tion of Mr, Dunning's tariff propos. ports to Canada considerably more than that sum, The counter-valling duty provision, which certain Senat ors in. Washington regard with such abhorrence when exercised by their awn country, appears among Mr Dunning's proposed weapons for strafing the United States. } Bits of Humor PROTECTION A farmer who was much troubl. od by trespassers during the nut. ting season consulted with a bot. anieal friend, The botanist furn. ished him with the technical name of tue hazel, and the farmer place: od the following notice at consples uous points about his premises: "Trespassers take warning!
