SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 1st, 1930 PRACTICAL HELP IN UNEMPLOYMENT RELIEF "There are plenty of optimists," says Sat- urday Night editorially, "who can always see the silver lining in any cloud, but it takes something more than optimism to melt the cloud and turn the silver into actual hard dollars." This Canadian publication was calling at- tention to a striking sales effort carried on by one of the Dominion's leading industrial organizations, Gypsum, Lime and Alabas- tine, Canada, Ltd., manufacturers and dis- tributors of forty-five different kinds of Canadian building materials. In eras of bus- iness depression, the effective efforts inaug- urated to offset conditions are matters of national interest. "Making no bones about the existence of unemployment, this company, inaugurated an extensive advertising campaign which announced :---*'We are looking for fifty thou- sand jobs for men who need them." The re- sponse was immediate and enormous. Large ly this was because the series of advertise- ments contained specific and valuable sug- guestions. The copy pointed out that now was the time to undertake that projected but possibly postponed building operation, because building costs were lower than for many years. Householders and farmers were urged to undertake those odds and ends of construction jobs, such as building a sun porch, turning 2 basement room into a play- room or workshop, adding an extra bath- room, for the average house owner; fixing the barn or dairy for the farmer; doing plaster repairs, fixing partitions or show windows for business men. How the com- pany's products could be used in all connec tions was set forth in each instance. THE LIBERAL GAIN The Liberals of the province of Ontario are elated over the victory which their can- didate won in the provincial bye-election in South Waterloo. In spite of the fact that this result was due largely to causes which were purely local, they have good reason to feel satisfied. Even although in the other three elections the Conservatives were able to retain the seats, the single victory in South Waterloo must be very satisfying to Mr. Sinclair and his colleagues. The winning of a single seat from the powerful Conservative representation in the provincial legislature will not, of course, make a great deal of difference to the situa- tion in that assembly. Yet its moral effect on the Liberal party will be great. Coming shortly before the great Liberal convention to be held in Toronto next month, this suc- cess will do much to encourage the Liberals. It may even have a direct bearing on the leadership question, and may strengthen the position of W. E. N. Sinclair, the present leader of the party in Ontario. In this con- nection, it is highly significant that 8. C. Tweed, of North Waterloo, one of the strong men of the party, should, speaking at a meeting of South Ontario riding Liberals, pledge his support to the leadership of Mr. Sinclair, for he had an inside knowledge of the part which the leader played in the South Waterloo victory. In spite of what Conservatives may say, the Liberal victory in South Waterloo is a goed thing for the province as a whole, To some extent, it serves notice on Premier Ferguson that he cannot rest on his laurels, and that his huge majority in thé legislature cannot be regarded as invulnerable. When a government becomes over-confident, good government very often goes by the board, and the reverse in South Waterloo may well have the effect of making Premier Ferguson and his colleagues more zealous in their ef- forts to give Ontario the best type of gov- ernment that is possible. A TEST FOR CANADIAN COAL The federal minister of mines has an- nounced that, as a measure for the relief of unemployment in the mining districts of Al- berta, a freight rate of $6.75 a ton will be allowed on all shipments of Alberta coal to Ontarie up to January 31 next. This is not a new measure, It has been done before as a test of the possibility of shipping coal from Alberta to Ontario at a price which would enable it to compete with United States coal. The experiment was not altogether success- ful. Many shipments were made, but the net result was to show that coal could not e sent from Alberta to the east at that rate without a loss to the railways. At least, that was what the railways' figures showed. In addition, little effort was made to build up a permanent and substantial market in Ontario for fuel from the west, and as a re- sult little has been heard of the project for some time. Under the present circumstances, how- ever, great effort should be made to utilize the low freight rate as a means of giving Alberta coal an introduction, on a large scale to the people of Ontario. It has been argued that it is not suitable for domestic purposes in Ontario, yet it is strange that it is used al- most exclusively for this purpose in Mani- toba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, where the cold in winter is even more severe than in this province. If it can be used there in such a manner as to give satisfaction, surely it can be used for the same purposes in On- tario. But the people of this province seem to have a preference for coal imported from the United States, yes, even from Russia, rather than give the coal mined in their own country a serious trial. It will be a wonderful boon to the mining districts of Alberta if the people of Ontario take advantage of the low freight rates and use large quantities of coal from'these areas. It will be a great help to the unemployment situation in the west. And if this could be made the means of developing a regular market in Ontario for Alberta coal, the ben- efits might well become permanent. FIVE INDUSTRIES IN ONE MONTH Oshawa shouldn't be long regaining its population decrease and then some judging by the good news which has been emanating from the Motor City recently. Within the 'last four weeks five new industries have sig- nified their intentions of locating in Oshawa. One of the most recent ones is a canning in- dustry which will provide employment fo; some sixty people. Every town and city usually casts an en vious eye upon centres that are able to boast new industries and we imagine it will be gen erally claimed that the Motor City is gettin the lion's share, Nevertheless Oshawa deserves to be cor gratulated on its success and enterprise an we hope that the rumbling of activity there augurs well for the rest of us. Anyhow Kitchener, like the hungry nestling, will op en wide its mouth. Perhaps a few "fa: grubs" will come this way. --Kitchener Dail, Recor "DITORIAL NOTES Wedded in a thunderstorm, forced to abandon their honeymoon yacht trip on ac- count of storms on the Mediterranean, and fired at by an assassin, on their way home, the King of Bulgaria and his new queen can- not be said to have started married life in a tranquil manner. One swallow does not make a summer, and one Empire Free Trade member of par- liament will not change Britain's fiscal policy. It would not be surprising to find that the Liberals are more satisfied with Mr. Sin- clair's leadership as a result of the South Waterloo election. Lindsay council has decided not to give unemployment relief nor jobs under the re- lief schemes to men who are driving automo- biles of their own. On the theory that the man who can buy gasoline should be able to buy the necessities of life for his family, this is a sound policy. It is interesting to note how many cities in Ontario are turning envious eyes on Osh- awa"s recent record for securing new indus- tries. A pessimist is a man who buys cork-tip- ped cigarettes before starting on an ocean voyage. Isn't it strange that the mercury in th. thermometer and the pile of coal in the cel- lar both drop at the same time. Two Toronto brokers were fined $250,000 the other day. That money, however, goes to the provincial government, instead of to their victims. Winston Churchill, who has been almost everything there is to be in politics, is now a staunch protectionist. Perhaps that is be- cause of his strong desire to protect his own seat in parliament. The most disturbing thing about Hallowe' en was the way the boys and girls disturbed enjoyment of the favorite radio programs. A contemporary contends that the world has. never ' produced a woman humorist. Many a man will point to his wife as dis- proof of this contention. One good thing about the average furnace- is that it is a strong advocate of the fire prevention campaign. The western education dwells in the cold- storage compartments of lessons and ice- packed minds of the schoolmasters.--Rabin- dranath Tagore. If you desire to operate a rushing busi- ness, try starting a gas station that extends credit.--~Galt Reporter, Eye Care and Eye Strain by C, H, Tues, Opt. D. (Copyright, 1928) THE RELATION OF DEFECTIVE EYES TO HEALTH PART "14" Accidents are sometimes un- avoidable because one or other of those concerned has Iimperfoct vision. Make sure of your condi- tion and you will know that you are doing your best. It would seem from reports that death snd in- juries due to automobile accidents from year to year are on the in- cregse. A little thought on our part and we feel that this is true because when civilizations advance demands the expending of more energy and effort it is a natural sequence that with the expansion of jndustry and production acecl- dents and injuries must propor- tionately . increase. Safety first rules if made for a good purpose should be enforced. If the eyesight is going to be corrected as a safety first measure and the one who possesses the defective oye- sight fails to heed the advice and admonition offered for his own sake, the laws should be onforced not for his good but for the pre- vention of the injuries that may affect others through his neglect. If a driver's eyes are defective and he falls to get a license to drive, his vision is just as much & menace to him at any other work. He is not as capable of avoiding danger as would be the cay it he were more fully correct- eda. The value of any correction fis noticeably appreciated and some only need to lay as'de their eor- rection for a short time to realize its real value. Many people say ft is the value of the glasses; but fs it not rather the value of Opto- metry or Optometric service? It Is through the Optometrist and his examination that the eorrectic wr | glasses come into existence. To be continued. SAS LIBERALS RUNNING LABOR Speech From the Throne Straight Liberal Policy, Maxton Asserts London, Nov. 1.--The sharpest criticism of the contents of the King's Speech, in the House of Commons yesterday, came from the Labor extremists. "I have not been able to find a tion to Socialist philosophy or to Socialist plans for eonfronting the nation's problems," complained Maxton, "Every part of the speech con- tains outstanding examples of typi- cal Liberal legislation. Lloyd George has got the policy he wanted without assuming the responsibility of Government. If the Government has definitely accepted the Liberal view it is only right and proper that they should say so. In that case, the present association be- tween the two sections of the La- por party will be no longer justifi- ed." Bits of Verse ALL IN THE STATE OF MIND If you think you are beaten, you are If you think you dare not, don't If you would like to win out, hut think you can't, It's almost a cinch you won't. If you think you'll lose, you've lost; For out in the world you find, Success begins with a fellow's will, It's all in a state of mind. you Full many a race is lost, Ere even a step is run, And many a coward fails Ere even his work's begun, Think big, and deeds will grow. Think small, and you'll fall behind; Think that yo can and you will; It's all in a state of mind, If you think you're outclassed you are; :.. You've got to think high to rise; You've got to be sure of yourself, before You can ever win a prize. Life's battles don't always go to the stronger or faster man, But sooner or later, the man who wins, Is the fellow who thinks he can. AUTUMN The Lady Autumn is in town, You'll know her by her tawny gown, The berries in her hair; : Her arms are filled with goldenrod, And everywhere that she has trod, There's incense in the air. The pungent smell of brown leaves burning (Only a few are still left turning Upon the naked trees); Thé last ripe apples on the ground, Mingle their scent with asters. found By drowsy golden bees. The birds no longer sing the gay Unceasing songs of Summer's day. But gather for their flight; Fat sparrows gossip in the eaves, A cricket chirps midst fallen leaves, Mist veils the night. y ~-Ann Sherburne PID YOU EVER STOP TO THINK CHARLES A. GUY, EDITOR OF THE LUBBOCK (TEXAS) AVAL- ANCHE AND JOURNAL, SAYS: "It has often occurred to me that the practice of community building --or rather the practice of engag- ing in it--has never struck clos enough home to that great group of our citizens, covered in the blanket characterization of 'the man in the street.' "That occurrence has led me fur- ther; has caused me to ponder over the condition in order to reach some direct reason for its existence. "In every city, village and ham* fet in our country we find as bul. warks of the chamber of commerce, commercial club or whatever the. civic vehicle happens to be called, the same little group of business men. This same little group bears the burden for the whole of the community in the expenditure of effort, time and finances, The 'av- whose family profits indirectly from erage citizen, who profits and the varied labors of the few, does. n't seem to feel that he, too, is re. sponsbile for helping make his town Just a little better than it is.

BEAR LIKED ALE, 30 WAS CAPTURED Escaped Custody, But Was' Lured Back To Camp Hope, B.C.--A brown bear's fond- | ness for ginger ale led to his re- capture here recently, Escaping after four and a half vears of captivity at an automobile camp, the bedr sought the seclusion of the woods in the vicinity of the Fraser River, But the old haunts, with the ab | sence of friendly tourists and his gin- ger ale, did not seem the same as the exiled bear had pictured them and after a day or two of wandering the fugitive returned td the outskirts of the camp. The camp attendant, hearing that the bear was near, armed himselt with half a dozen bottles of pop and | was soon able to entice the animal | back to his den, The bear's capacity for ginger ale, which he drinks through a small hole punched in the metal cap, is about' two dozen bottles a day, but being | one outside the 'faithful few' and as a result the term, 'Chamber of Commerce' is foreign to many who reap great gain from fits activitie« "Man-power is an elvic endeavor as it is anywhere else.

BRITISH DEBATERS TOURING CANADA Will Meet College Men At Toronto, November 5th Montreal, Oct. 30.--After tackl- ing Canadian college men before large audiences in St. Johns, New- foundland, and in a number of cen- tres in Nova Scotia and New Bruns- wick, the team of British debaters which is now touring Canada will arrive in ntreal Thursday even- ing to debate here the following day. The visitors will leave on the morning of Monday, November 3 for Ottawa.

ASHBURN Ashburn, Oct. 30.--The annual anniversary services of Burns Preshyterian church were held on Sunday and Monday. On Sunday Dr. W. M. Dochester, of Toronto, delivered two splendid sermons that were full of appeal and in- spiration. , The choir rendered spe- cial music which was greatly enjoy- ed. On Monday evening the ladles of the congregation served a fow! supper and again received a great deal of comment on their generous servings and splendid cooking. Af- ter all had partaken liberally they ascended to the body of the church enson acted as chairman and = programme of selections from sev- eral members of College St. Bape tist Church, Toronto, assisted by Miss Maud Hope, elocutionist and entertainer, were enjoyed for about two hours. The evening's proceeds amounted to one hundred and twen- ty-ive dollars. This no doubt would have been considerably larg- er but the night turned out to be very wet and misty and a number did not venture forth. Mr, .and Mrs, Harold Allin, of Newcastle, attended the special ser- vices here on Sunday and Monday. Their former friends here are al- ways pleased to have a visit from them. Mrs. Ernie Jones, of Peterboro, is spending the week with her par- ents, Mr, and Mrs, Inner Grant. Much sympathy is felt for Mr, Fred Stephens in the sudden death on Friday last of his sister (Lizzie) Mrs. Bert Hall, of Lampton Mills. Deceased was sick with a heart attack only a few hours when she passed away, besides her sorrowing husband she leaves one daughter and two sons. Mr. Christopher Valentyne and sister, Miss visited Columbus friends on Sun- day. This community was well repres. ented at the plowing match, which was held at Mr. W, D.
