Last week a sjlendid musical festival, composed of a long list of competitive events in various branches of the musical arts, was held in Bowmanville, with the whole of Durham County eligible to take part. In recent weeks, similar events have been held for the musicians in Peel, Perth, Oxford, Lambton, Elgin, and other coun- ties of the province of Ontario. These musical festivals, with their competitive elements, have done much to stimulate interest in music wherever they have been held, and, in addition, have been the means of developing and bringing to the front much excellent musical talent. When these places can make a success of musical festivals of this type, why can it not be possible for Oshawa to be the centre for a similar festival for Ontario county. Interest in music in this city and district has made great strides in recent months, particularly with the organization of the Oshawa Choral Society and the Oshawa Lyric Singers, and there is an abundance of material, not only in Oshawa, but throughout Ontario county, to warrant the holding of a festival, Such things, of course, require a begin- ning. They need the enthusiastic interest of some group of musically-inclined people who will devote their time and energy to the organization work that is necessary. Surely there are such people in Ontario county in sufficient numbers to make an annual festival possible here. We leave the thought there, in the hope that it may stimulate thought amongst those who are in a position to take the initial steps. Back to Two Parties The much-discussed statement of Mit- chell Hepburn, leader of the Ontario Liber- al Party, to the effect that a conference was to be held for the purpose of uniting the Labor, Progressive and Liberal parties, indicates that there is a desire on the part of political leaders to get back to the good old two-party system of government. This system was split wide open in 1919 when the U.F.0. and Labor parties secured a strong representation in the Ontario Legis- lature. Since then, however, these parties, and their colleagues, the Progressives, have dwindled away to small groups, while the old political parties, the traditional Grits and Tories have regained some of their former strength. The return to two-party government is a logical move. On the one side of politics stands the Conservative party, which today is in the seats of the mighty. Aligned against it are the Liberal, Progressive and Labor groups. What could be more logical than an attempt to unite these three groups 80 as to provide an effective fighting force in opposition to the Conservatives, to whom all three are opposed. That is what Mr. Hepburn is proposing when he suggests a conference to bring them closer together. Naturally, Mr. Hepburn has his weather eye open to the political advantages of such a union. Elimination of three and four-cornered contests would give the op- position a much better chance of winning seats in election battles with the Conserva- tives. And since Progressives and Labor members are much closer in policies to the Liberals than they are to the Conserva- tives, such a-union would seem not un- ikely. So there are hopes for a return to the old two-party system, which has served Janada, and Great Britain, well and faith- fully in the securing of good government n past generations. There would be more stability in political life, more certainty of svenly-balanced governments and opposi- ion parties, and, on the whole, the inter- 3sts of the three opposition parties would be much better served by coming together "han by remaining apart. The Indian Trouble Fighting and bloodshed in India have 'occupied a prominent place in the news- paper headlines these last few days, and many people feel that the government is now being subjected to an armed attack from the followers of the mystic Gandhi. This, however, is not the case, and because of this, the situation is not as serious as it might seem from the lists of dead and wounded. The present trouble, in fact, is one in which the government of India is only A involved in an indirect way. The govern- ment is brought into it simply because it is required to do its best to keep the peace and preserve law and order. The actual fighting is between the Moslems and the Hindus, two Indian sects which are bitter- ly opposed to each other, and who are ever ready to take advantage of an opportunity of getting at each other's throats. This, of course, is greatly different from an uprising against the government. There is no semblance of a mutiny against the 4 constituted authorities. From that stand- point, it is not a serious situation. The Moslems and Hindus, periodically, indulge in outbursts of "hate" against each other, and this is just one of these outbursts. It is unfortunate that British troops have to be called into action to try to restore peace between these two factions, but there need not be any great degree of alarm so long as the only trouble is an. outbreak of re- ligious strife without the government being directly involved. Editorial Notes The community gardens have certainly helped to move the unemployed away from the four corners these fine afternoons. Aird must be feeling rather regretful that his dealings with the Beauharnois corporation had to be aired in public. And it is becoming more and more ap- parent that great fathers do not always have great sons, Radio rumors regarding the Lindbergh case, fortunately, can easily be disproved by the authentic news which is published in the newspapers. It begins to look as if the whole of parlia- ment is fairly well satisfied that national- ization of radio broadcasting is the proper thing. Even although his visit is largely a private one, the people of Oshawa gave the Governor-General a great welcome this morning. An income can never be made through gambling. A gambler cannot |hold his winnings. He must go on. In going on, he inevitably loses.--S. Beach Chester, noted English gamblér now, "reformed." The day is not far when the Spaniards will realize that I was not such a bad king after all, and that I did do something for the welfare of Spain.--Alfonso, ex-King of Spain. We do not do things in this country by revolutions in the sense that word is used, but here, as .elsewhere, the people are resti/» and resentful becausc they recog- nize that governments are not meeting the purposes for which they were established. --Senator William E. Borah of Idaho. Other Editor's Comments SERIOUS PROBLEM (R. M. H., in Border Cities Star) Discussion in the Walkerville Board of Educa- tion has drawn attention to.a serious problem ex- isting in the high schools and collegiates, where a number of pupils fail in their. examinations year after year, show neither desire nor aptitude for promotior et remain on the rolls It is manifestly unfair that the taxpayers should be burdened with the $1,500 or $2,000 which is nec- essary to "educate" each of these perennial flunk- crs. At present, it seems, although some of the stu- dents in point have reached the age of 18 or 19, there's no certain way to reject them, Obviously the remedy lies in an amendment to the School Act under which those who fail of promotion twice or, at the most, three times, could be automatically dropped. Of course, there'd have to be loopholes for special cases, because it would be impossible to generalize without working an injustice here and there. But the interests of parents and pupils af- fected by the amendment could be safeguarded through provision for appeal to whatever might he the pronerly constituted last court.

"You may "Dearest," said the business man to his wife, "I wish you wouldn't call me pet names when you ring me up on the 'phoné. My secretary answered you today." "Well," replied the wife with deliberation, "I did not 'phone you to-day."

Most cases of this nature, also have a history of a physical derangement, Second sight is in itself a symptom of physical derangement, 'I'he rea- son in most cases of second sight is found in the lens of the eye taking a change through certain improper organic conditions, some of which may be overcome by following a proper diet.
