United States OFFICE Temperance Street. Telephone répr ive. It was a happy party of fifty boys which on Saturday left Oshawa and went to the Kiwanis Camp at Kedron for a two weeks' . One can well understand the ts in these boys' minds. Instead of ' spending these two weeks in the dust and _ heat of the city streets, they wil be out in the open country, with a beautiful creek and swimming pool inviting them to cool - themselves in the clear waters, with plenty of wholesome and body-building food, and with an abundance of sleep practically out in the great out-of-doors. A real work of boy-building is being done at this cAmp, and in the next month 100 _ Oshawa boys, who would not otherwise know the delights of a camping vacation, will be benefited by this work. It is not enly in the building up of their bodies by good food, ~ ¥égular sleep and healthful exercise that they will benefit. The camp is under trained direction, which looks to the build- _ ing of character as well as body, which tries $6 direct the minds of 'the boys along the likes of a fourfold development, so that : character and true instincts of citizen- tue can be developed. The value of this Work which is being doné by the Kiwanis Olub cannot be estimated, but we do know 'that in the years to come hundreds of men "will look back to the days when they were ts at the Kiwanis Camp at Kedron and will call these days blessed. J WHERE CANADA STANDS e action of the British government in ting to the overseas dominions a mora- im for one year in war debt payments a splendid gesture of friendship and good will on the part of the mother country, and will be of great assistance to Australia and .~New Zealand in solving their financial prob- lems. It brings out very clearly, however, the favored position in which Canada stands loday. Canada has a huge war debt to pay, ut this country has not figured in the re. * gent discussions of cancelling war debt pay- ments for a year, for the simple reason that Canada has no war debt payments to make to other nations. True, Canada will lose about $5,000,000 on reparations account, which would have been received from the payments made by Germany, so that this country, in respect to war debts to other countries, is a creditor rather than a debtor nation. This situation exists because Canada owes her war debt to her own people. Her war loan and victory loan campaigns, in the days if the war, enabled her to finance war op- erations with Canadian money, borrowed " from her own people, rather than with mo- ney borrowed from other countries. Thus, when Canada repays war debts, she pays the money back to her own citizens, in other words, put it into circulation within the Do- minion of Canada, instead of sending it to 'New York, London, or elsewhere. This is a splendid thing for this country, and is one of the reasons why business and financial leaders look to Canada to be right in the forefront of the business and economic re- govery which lies ahead. A POPULAR SELECTION ir Hamilton Conservatives must rea- e that they have a hard fight ahead of em in the federal by-election in that rid- when they selected as their candidate well-known newspaperman, M. M. Rob- inson, better known throughout the whole of the British Empire as "Bobby" Robinson, ~ the man who conceived, organized and man- aged the British Empire Games in Hamil- ton last August. They certainly could not 'have picked a more popular citizen of Ham- to represent them in the contest, in "which the Labor party already has a strong nominee in the person of Alderman Hum- 1 E. Mitchell. It looks as if the Con- ervatives, recognizing that working men ize true sportsmen, and are partial to one as a peer of sportsmen, de- oh selected Mr. Robinson with that pught in mind. A year ago, his name was everyone's lips in Hamilton. He was the of the hour. He had put Hamilton on Empire map in big letters, had aroused ¢ enthusiasm of all classes of citizens, ; at that time he could have had any- ] he wanted, almost, from the people Ramilton, Now he is asking them for their votes in deral election contest. Politics and are entirely different, yet in a poli- tical fight his reputation as a sportsman will stand him in good stead and will win for * him plenty of support. It will be an inter- esting fight, but, knowing Hamilton's pref- erence for Conservatives, we doubt if the Labor candidate, even in spite of the unem- ployment situation, will be able to overcome the tremendous popularity of Hamilton's one and only "Bobby" Rébinson. EDITORIAL NOTES The young fellow who stole a local law- yer's car might have known he could not gét away with it. Mayor Marks believes that to bring suc- cess in seeking to secure help for the work- less, it is necessary to keep everlastingly at it all the time. The federal government will now know that there are a number of municipalities in Ontario which need substantial assistance. It will seen be the anniversary of the last general election, and we have nof noticed that unemployment is ended yet. It must be some consolation to Great Bri- tain to realizé that she does not have to come to Canada's rescue in a financial yay. The large crowds attending the band on certs are evidence of the popularity of these summer-time events. Time is passing. July 1 brings Dominion Day, then come the C.N.E., Labor Day, and furnace time, Dr. Kaiser's idea of setting the unem- ployed to work cutting weeds is an excellent ofie. We know several places right in Osh- awa where they could make a good begin- ning.

This is an example of an editor being called to fill a large and im- portant place in the community.

Other Editor'sComments THE PERJURY MENACE (Kitchener Record) An evil that. threatens to eat into the very vitals of the administration of justice is the levity some witnesses practise when they are under oath. Too frequently evidence adduced in court is so conflict- ing that charges of af perjury should be laid. Yet this is seldom done. Be perimers not realize the seri- ousness of their falsehoods, or 'do they run the risk because they think their offense will go unpunished ? Judge O'Connell, presiding in the county criminal court at Toronto, recently voiced strong sentiments regarding this growing evil when he said: "For the past two weeks ow must have ob®erved that per- jury of the worst kind has been rampant within this court by & certain class of witnesses. So much so that it threatens to become a public scandal. It seriously interrupts the administration of justice and steps must be taken to put an absolute end to it. The same emphatic stand should be taken by all the courts and If necessary hand out a few severe sen tences to those who perjure themselves. That scems to be the only effective way of suppressing the in- sidious practice. BITS OF HUMOR EVIDENCE OF IDENTITY A look of recognition came over the diner' s face as the newcomer entered the restaurant, "Pardon me, sir," he said, "I think we met here a fortnight ago." "Sorry," he replied, politely enough, know you." "Mayba not," said the other, "and 1 don't know you--but I recognized your umbrella," "That's impossible, sir," went on the newcomer; 'a fortnight ago I Hadn't an umbrella." "No; but I had," came the other's retort. DOWN BUT NOT OUT The park-keeper found a tramp asleep on one of the seats, "Hi, ou!" he exclaimed, shaking the man's shoul<* der, "I'm going to close the gates."

But the walks were bordered with pink delight, In the summer times of the long ago, Jessamine swayed i in the garden's foot And roses hung in a nodding row. Here, in this sanded path, lovers walked And insects hummed in the lazy air, The sun-dial drowsed amon, 'the hours And the wind went wandering here and there.
