She Osha Simes Published by Conadion Newspopers Limited, 86 King 5t. E., Oshawa, Ont. Poge 6 Thursdoy, Jonuory 5, 196) Splendid Opportunity In New Lecture Course A significant event in education in Oshawa takes place next Monday eve- ning, when the first of 10 lectures con- cerning business and industry will be given at the O'Neill Collegiate and Vocational Institute, It is significant not only because of the educational oppor- tunity presented, but also because it could be the start of a major educational advance in the city, The lectures are being presented by the extension division of the University of Toronto, in co-operation with the Osh. ewa Board of Education--the first time that the University has worked in such fashion with a school board outside Toronto, The course beginning Monday evening covers the subject of business law, and is simed at counselling the average business man, Topics to be dealt with include: elementary taxation prob. lems, types of business enterprises and ways of financing them, buying and sell- ing real estate, partnership, corporation law, organization, share structure, duties of directors and so on, In charge is W. L. 8, Trivett, a dynamic and suc- cessful lecturer, As the brochure states, the course is designed to be practical and informative but not a substitute for legal advice, We sincerely hope that Oshaws cit zens, be they practising or potential business operators, will take advantage of this splendid opportunity being given them by the University and the Osh. awa Board of Education, Not only will their own capabilities be increased, but the business law course could be the start of an enlarged extension program in the city that could well lead to the establishment of a university here. It has siready been stated that other courses by the University of Toronto in its business and industry extension program may be established in Osh. awa if there is sufficient demand Examples of such eourses are: econo- mics, marketing, effective speech in business, written communications in business; human relations in adminis. tration, investment in securities, personal and corporate taxation, public relations and office management. These are courses that could be of inestimable benefit to many who are not now classed as business men, Incidentally, Carleton University got its start with extension courses Sugar Quota Bumbling The angry Americans who have been denouncing Canada for trading with Cuba would be well advised to direct their fury at their own govérnment, Not only did the United States sell more to Cuba last November (a post-embargo month) than Canada did during the whole of 1961, but the U.S, revision of the sugar quota is throwing Latin America into a tizzy, If there is any regime in Latin America that is detested by its neighbors it is not Castro's but that of the dictator Trujillo in the Dominican Republic, The Trujillo government is virtually an out. cast, and the United States not long ago joined with the other members of the Organization of American States in stern condemnation of the Dominican dictator, But one hand of the US, government ppparently does not know what the other hand is doing. Here is what hap- pened: Last summer Washington cut off the remaining Cuban sugar quota, and Presi. dent Eisenhower asked Congress to end the obligation to include the Dominican government among the favored benefi- claries from the redistribution of the Cuban quota, Congress did not do so, with the result that the United States has given the Dominican Republic an eight- fold increase in its share of the U.S, sugar market, At the same time democ- ratic Brazil, badly in need of dollars and with an increased sugar production in expectation of a quota increase, has been left holding the bag --~ an empty sugar bag. This is the sort of diplomatic folly that has weakened U.S, prestige and goodwill in Latin America to the point of collapse. Communists may start many of the demonstrations against the U.S, but the fact is that they have fertile ground for the sowing of their dismal seed, 'This is one of the big problems facing the new U.S. administration, President. elect Kennedy must move swiftly to end the confusion of policy and action that has characterized the Eisenhower ad. ministration, Latin America is one of the most sensitive areas, Castro may be re- placed in Cuba, but there well be more Castro-type revolutions in Latin America if the United States continues to bumble along as it has during the past decade, Snowy Owls Move South A hunter in the Lindsay district was fined the other day for shooting a snowy owl, We can expect more reports of that kind, with the increase in trigger- happy hunters and in the number of snowy owls. Every so often, these splen- did Arctic birds move south, when there is a shortage of lemmings in the Arctic wasteland -- and this winter, it seems, is one in the cycle of shortage, Killing the snowy owl is sheer stupid. ity, because the bird lives largely on rodents, A farmer lucky enough to have one winter on his property will find the 'numbers of rats, mice, shrews and rabbits decimated, Even foxes may killed and 'eaten, for the full grown owl is an awe- some creature, He stands about two feet thigh, is predominantly white with greyish The Oshawa Times T.

Ernest Thompson-Seton, the celebrated natu ralist, once told of seeing a white owl tear the hide from an elk with its for. .midable talons, But if unmolested, the bird is quite tractable and goes about his business without disturbing anyone, Indeed, if you see one of these creat. ures, you may find it quite tame. Many winter migrants which come from un. populated northern regions may show little fear of human beings when they first arrive. Unfortunately, they quickly learn caution, In the Arctic, the prolific lemmings, along with ptarmigan, rabbits and fish constitute most of the snowy owl's diet, The lemmings reproduce so rapidly that their numbers would be formidable in settled territory, Then suddenly in cycles that run four to seven years, their nume bers become depleted and they start to disappear. This life pattern is a familiar one to biologists, Any hardy bird or animal species may prosper in its normal range to the degree that it may spill over into surrounding territory, If it is an adap- table species and finds acceptable food and climatic conditions in its new home its range may be greatly enlarged. But if the species fails to gain a hold in sure rounding territory, it becomes too numer- ous in its natural habitat, its food supply is insufficient and its numbers suffer from the interplay of disease, Bible Thought Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning == Psalm 30:5.

Correspondent For The Oshawa Times LONDON ~ The fabulous mon- ster which is supposed to inhabit the waters of Loch Ness, in Inverness-shire, Scotland, keeps eropping up in the news, Close on the heels of an announcement that legislation may be sought to protect the monster (if there is one) from misguided efforts to QUEEN'S PARK locaté it, comes another report of a new method of trying to find out if it is really there, Behind this new plan, to be carried out in May of this year, is Ronald Bateman, a 40-year-old Isle of Wight zoo owner, He pro- poses to use dogs in an expedi. tion to track down the monster, and they are now undergoing special training at his zoo for that purpose, Mr, Bateman, who operates a zoo at Sandown, thinks that the extra sensitive instincts of well. trained dogs will be more sue- cessful than radar or other and more scientific aids in determin. ing whether or not a monster lurks beneath the waters of Loch Ness, The dogs now being trained for the expendition Mr, Bateman Is planning for May, are two Alsa- tians, Khan, who is 10 years old and her 18-month old son, Craec- le, Mr, Bateman has a new theory about the monster. He believes that It does exist and that it is a mammal, He thinks that the monsters ~ and he feels there are more than one - live in caverns with the entrances econ. cealed beneath the loch, but ven. tilated with fresh alr which fil ters through fissures in the sur. rounding hillsides, He thinks that dogs trained like Khan and Crackle will be | able to detect the scent of these Credit For Great Park Development By DON O'HEARN TORONTO-W, B Greenwood died just before New Year's, He had been unconscious for six months, He wouldn't give up, Then finally he had to, And the ast chapter in a fighting life was closed, HE BUILT The obituary In one newspaper after his death sald Ben Green. wood had "helped" to build up the present provinelal park sys. tem in Ontario, That must go as one of the last great understatements of the year for 1960, For Ben did not "help to build the system, He built it, Others helped him, BUILT ALL He was named chief of the new parks division of the department of land and forests in 1054, At that time there were six provincial parks in the province (in addition to a number of small highways parks), When he died there were 82, And he had a hand in planning, purchasing where necessary, and developing every single one of the 76 additions, Additions which gave Ontario what is recognized as one of the finest parks sys- tems on the continent, FROST CREDIT In 1952 and 1053 the govern. ment took slow recognition of the demand for park facilities A large share of the credit for this can be given to Premier Frost who--as a consistent year. round week-ender at his lakefront cottage--~has a fine appreciation of outdoor recreation, The parks division was set up, And Ben Greenwood was brought in from his forestry region to head it, And from there the credit goes to him HE FOUGHT Ben was a forester who had graduated from Varsity in 1925 and had spent most of his years since In the field, But he also had a period where he operated his own business and had a look at things from the civilian side of the fence. The result was an outstanding forester, who had the respect of all his colleagues, and who also had a good business sense and also a grasn of polities, He needed them gall in building up our parks system: And he used them all, : PARAGRAPHICAL WISDOM "Many birds will eat intoxicat- ing fermented fruit or berries at every opportuni'y and get soused to the beaks," says an arnitholo- gist. How disillusioning! Why, sity'se no better than some peo. ple, We seem to he approaching the the point where we not only can't afford war, but neither could we afford the enormous cost of main. taining peace. Such an impasse might well reach the proportions of a dilemma, Governments get the credit for results, But often a large share of this credit should go to civil servants Often they have had to fight to make government see what was right, Ben was one of these, He had many fights, But over a period of years In one of the most amazingly dedicated and stren. uous jobs ever seen here he won his way. It is only regrettable that cus. toms does not permit us to dedicate our whole park system to him as a memorial, It would be fitting, monsters, through the ventilating fissures and pin-point the parts of the loch where they are most likely to appear, WIFE GOING ALONG The zoo owner, who will be | accompanied by his wife, plans to spend two weeks on the exped. ition, They are taking with them a motor cruiser, Once they have detected a spot where the mon- ster is likely to appear, they will take a cameraman there to try to "'shoot"" it, The dogs are being trained to detect the smell of reptiles by finding straw that has been used in the reptiles' cage and then hidden in fissures in cliffs near his zoo, During this training they have unearthed what Mr, Bate- man thinks is the bone of a prehistoric animal, He says: "1 have extremely high hopes that we will succeed in locating the monster where other, and perhaps more sclenti. fic expeditions have failed." GALLUP POLL Taxpayers Give Views On Municipal Spending By CANADIAN INSTITUTE OF PUBLIC OPINION Across the towns, cities and vil. lages, on the average, one in four Canadians is critical of local gov- ernment for wasting the taxpay- ers' ;money. This degree of com- plaint however, is just about the same as It was ten years ago. The past decade, with its fre- quent public chiticism over the way local governments handle fi- nances, has not affected the de- grees of criticism, but has alter. ed the type of thing people com- plain about, Ten years ago top complaint was for waste on en- tertainment expenses. Today this criticism is far down the line, At that time only one in a hundred Spending too much ...... Not spending too much Taxpayers in rural areas or vill- ages, are far more satisfied with thelr council expenditures than To much Not too much ,..:. Don't know Those men and women who thought the councils are wasting on the critical group referred to some type of educational expense as wasteful; today nine in a hun. dred do so, For each study, the Gallup Poll selects a different sample of men and women In every walk of life accurately representing the whole nation, to reveal public opinion on controversial issues. The question for today's study is the same as that used in 1951, Columns below show how little the points of view have changed, "In this community do you think the (city) (town) (mu. nicipal) council is spending too much of the taxpayers' money on unnecessary things or not too much?" 1951 Today 26% 46 » 100% those whe live in the larger cities, where the proportion saying "too much" is almost the same as those who say "Not too much". Big Small Cities: Towns 20% 54 26 Rural 19% 54 big 100% 100% money were asked to give some examples, Here they are, in order of importance, Unwise spending; unknown expenses: too much watside advice Men paid Education; teachers salaries; too many Roads and others Entertainment of visitors; Other extravagances Generally "spend too much" for doing nothing, inefficiency too many schools, buses, frills street repair, snow removal PETRI Specific bulldings such as city halls, little theatres, receptions - (Some named more than one) World Copyright Reserved Our Joe decided to take his pulse first thing next morning, He almost bounded out of bed be- fore he remembered to feel his right wrist with his left finger tips, And then the first attack struck, Cold sweat clung to his skin, His hands shook, Gremlins were pumping air into a giant basket- ball inside his chest and the pres sure squeezed his heart, His heart seemed to tug and jump, trying to shake off this painful pressure, SURE OF DEATH His face paled and he was sure he'd be giving up the ghost any minute, By the time he could feel any pulse, it was somewhere up in orbit, After a thorough examination the doctor pronounced Joe's health perfect, But Joe demanded the truth, not a whitewash! And so the doctor ordered x-rays and electrocardiograms to prove that othing was wrong. ut Joo was wise! They wouldn't be turning him like a revolving door to snap X-rays of a normal heart, And who would bother hitching all those electro- eardiogram wires to record a healthy ticker?! PERSISTENT TROUBLE That squeezing heart pain and woozy feeling used to attack him all day ~ whenever he was in a squeeze, He'd suffer all evening if he lifted anything heavier than a footstool, : He kept changing doctors until he found one who agreed with him and prescribed nitroglycerin pills for the pain, But Joe plays it smart! Instead of waiting for the pain he slips a nitroglycerin pill into his mouth whenever he feels overpressed or Expert Disagrees With Free Drugs VANCOUVER (CP)~-Free nar coties do not help addicts, says Dr, Victor H. Vogel, former head of the Lexington Hospital for Addicts in Kentucky, Author of two books on ad. diction problems and now ship's doctor aboard the liner Marl. posa, he sald in an interview: "Giving free drugs to addicts is absolutely wrong. It is based on the idea that it is hopeless to treat these people, . . . There is also the erroneous conception that this will eliminate the ped. dler," Treatment centres and hospis tals where addicts could be con. fined for six to elght months were essential to any hopes for reduction in the number of ad. dicts, Youth education was also necessary and 'peddlers must be located and removed from cone tact with youthful groups." City-Raised Bees Take Honey Prize TORONTO (CP) = Four hives of city-slicker bees have put to shame their country cousins by winning the eastern Canada title for white honey production. The homes of the 260,000 cham plons are beside a cedar hedge on the campus of Upper Canada College in the centre of Toronto, Their keeper is Thomas Ireland Aikman who has been keeping the hives humming for 18 of the 25 years he has been employed at the college. He got into the business during sugar rationing in 1942, This year the four hives pro duced 400 pounds of prize-win. ning honey plus enough for their own food, Samples also won a reserve Canadian championship and a second prize at the Ca- nadian National Exhibition, He never has had a laint PILL ADDICT He's become addicted to heart. attack pills ~~ most other Joes are icted only to heart at tacks, Their hearts are worried, not sick! And there Is no cure, Each one will have to live out his days with a broken-hearted but disgustingly healthy cardiac pump, Only two things can help Joe -- the soft mattress of a psycho analyst's couch or a glant dose of pitroglycerin--enough to blow up that heart trouble myth which started before he earned those four battle stars and Silver Cross!
