She Oshawa Zines BJ Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L. Wilson, Publisher \ SATURDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1964 -- PAGE 6 "Let Us Give Thanks' Theme For This Weekend "For the Lord thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and hills; a land of wheat and barley, and vines and fig trees and pomegrana- tes; a land of oil and of honey; a land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, thou shalt not lack anything in it; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills thou myself dig brass." If there is any country in the world to which these words taken from the 8th chapter of the book of Deuteromy can be applied with truth, that land is Canada, At this season of Thanksgiving, a time set aside by the parliament of Canada for thanks for the safe ingathering of the harvest and the blessings poured on Canada by a Divine pro- vidence these words have special force. Canadians have been richly bless- ed in the bounties of nature, in the resources which have been placed at the disposal of the people who call it their home. These things in themselves form a sufficient rea- son for marking the Thanksgiving season in a special way. In these modern days of afflu- ence, there is too. much of a ten- dency to take every good thing for granted, to ignore the part that the Divine Creator had in making Can- ada the land that is for the people who live in it. Surely, then, we ought to pause, at the Thanks- giving holiday season, and make it something more than just another holiday weekend. The keynote of the whole occasion should be "Let us Give Thanks," Press Freedom Rests 'On Rights Of The People The coming week is being ob- served throughout Canada and the United States. as National News- paper Week. The observance of this week has two separate functions, which bear a very close relation- ship to each other. First, it provides an opportunity on the part of the public for an evaluation of their newspapers from the standpoint of the impact they make on the life of the communities they serve. Second- ly, they focus the attention of those responsible for the -publica- tion and production of newspapers upon themselves, so that by. self- examination and self-criticism they can aim at higher standards of journalism and greater service to their communities and the people who live in them. The first of these two functions -{s important because it brings for- ward for examination that intan- gible heritage of the people who live under free democracies, the freedom of the press. This meaning- ful phrase -- the freedom of the press -- has been the subject of great misconceptions on the part of "people who do not understand its full meaning. These people regard it as some special privilege which belongs to the press, and that it has nothing to do with them. In cold fact,.the phrase -- fYee- dom of the press -- is very much a misnomer. What it really means is the freedom of the people of any country to be kept informed on what is going on in their own country and throughout the world. A well- informed public is essential to the successful operation of the true democracy. Therefore it is the right of the people to know the truth, particularly where it involves the actions and policies of those who hold .offices of authority over them. The right of the people to have a free press brings with it a duty on the part of the press to accept the | heavy responsibilities which this places upon it. These responsibilities cannot be borne lightly. They place upon newspapers the duty of pre- senting the news from day to day, truthfully, accurately and honestly, and with a deep sense of integrity. In preserving these three principles newspapers can and do earn the res- pect and the confidence of their readers. Only by observing them without reservations can newspapers be worthy of the freedom which is given to them to keep: the public well-informed, because only on the foundations of truth, honesty, ac- curacy and integrity can the press fulfil the trust which is placed in its hands, Make It A Safe Holiday It is tragically sad that long weekend holidays, like that of this weekend's Thanksgiving holiday, instead of being wholly periods of pleasure and gladness, invariably are marred for thousands of Cana- dian people by accidents on the highways of the country. The public has become accustomed to the long lists of road casualties at holiday weekends, These lists are gradually losing their force and meaning as warnings to those who. use the high- ways of the extra dangers inherent in the extra volume of automobile traffic using the highways.

They do not think in advance of the fact that a single moment risk- taking while driving could mean the fatal termination of a holiday trip. They give no thought to the neces- sity of being guard against mistakes or carelessness on the part of other drivers, These are the things which contribute to the long lists of motor fatalities and injuries which as sure as fate will be record- ed on the pages of Tuesday's news- papers.

Comm., CA George Easeup, ea life-long resident of Camada, returns from Florjda to hear that his neighbor and friend, Jack Near- by, recently passed away. George is concemed, since their estate positions are quite simi- lar -- he travels to a warmer climate each winter, like Jack; he owns property outside Can- nada, like Jack. George realizes that although the subject is not pleasant he must get this "estate thing" straightened out. He has been told that Canada levies an estate tax based on domicile whereby his property in Florida would be taxed in Canada. He hears that property located in United States is sub- ject to estate tax in United States. George wonders if this can be true; it seems grossly unfair; "in fact', George says, "this is double taxation", Further checking by George reveals that most of what he has heard is correct. He is, however, particularly pleased to learn that double taxation is alleviated to a great extent. This, he finds out, is possible as a result of cer- tain foreign tax credit provi- sions contained in the Estate Tax Act. The Act, he is told, allows a credit against the Ca- nadian estate tax payable in circumstances where an estate tax is paid to a foreign coun- try. The credit allowable cannot exceed the Canadian estate tax that is applicable to the foreign property, that is, the allowable credit is' the lesser of the es- tate tax paid to the foreign country or the tax that would READERS' VIEWS otherwise be payable on this property in Canada. Further- more, this credit is given only on estate taxes paid to a foreign country; taxes paid to a state, province, or a political sub- division of a country do not qualify. George is certainly relieved. He still remains a little puzzled by the operation of this credit -- in particular, he wonders why Canada should tax property in United States and then allow a credit, why not just exclude the property from taxation in Canada? "After all', George says, "no tax avoidance can occur ,as practically all coun- tries févy. an estate tax -- you either pay it in one country or the other, why all the complica- tions?" £ The point is good. The reason, he is told, is that "tax havens' exist, There are countries like Nassau, for example, that do not levy any estate tax. Can- ada_ therefore, takes the posi- tion that if another country lev- ies a tax, a credit is given, if the other country doesn't want to tax it, Canada will. The thought is that the property be- lénged to a Canadian domiciled person; he derived certain bene- fits from his country, hence taxation of this foreign property is not out of order. Although not in comptete agreément with this . theory, George is content that he has learned something about his es- tate. He has started on this "es tate thing', he feels he must pursue it further -- since, after all, he has. shares, life. insur- ance, in addition he receives a pension; who knows, perhaps these things can cause compli- cations as well. Seeks Solutions To Teenagers' Problems The Editor, The Oshawa Times Dear Sir, Your newspaper, in my opin- ion, is to be commended for' bringing: to the public eye the dire need in our city for a solu- tion to the cur problems faced by our present day teen- agers. I feel that your news- paper has taken the first step in the right. direction pointing out to the general public that Oshawa is no different than other communities. It has its share of teenagers who need help and guidance. Parents are, at least in part, to blame for the behaviour of our teenagers, particularly those who accept the present day maxim "Nearly everyone else does it, why not my child', Well, why not your child? Think for a minute, what does our fair city (Oshawa) offer teenagers, where can they go, or what can they do? The above questions are not intended for parents who have ideal children, children who, when -placed in situations' that test their moral- ity, always choose right over wrong, children who, in spite of the company they keep, always come out of it a little better for it, children who by-passed' youth and entered into that maturity 6f mind often credited to adults far before their time. If your child is of this rarity then ig- nore my pleas. Now ask yourself wherein lies the responsibility of your chil- dren's conduct?, What responsi- bility do you have in regard to your children? Are you a par- ent, a driend, or both? Only you can answer those questions. Mr. W. Brewster, Director of Recreation, has offered to con- the Recreation Depart- ment's support to the 50-50 Dance Club, an independent club utilizing the Recreation De- partment's facilities and. leader- ship, Albert E. Dodds, Edward Romanchuk and Gary D. Logan, realizing that what we are at- tempting to do will bring many happy returns of criticism from gracious parents, Let's Jo some- thing about our children now, while we are still able. Let's find out where our children are at nights, what they are doing and what company they are keeping. Let's make sure our children are more than mere statistics to be studied in crim- inology. Let's be parents to our God given children who need us. We, the supervisory staff of the 50-50 Club are prepared to do our part, are you? In closing I would like again to thank the "Times" for their excellent coverage of our 50-50 Club dance and their willingness to search diligently into the facts before allocating the blame. tinue GARY D.

MAC'S MUSINGS Let us give thanks is The theme that should Be uppermost in the Minds of all of us as We celebrate the annual Feast of Thanksgiving During the coming weekend, All the people of Canada From the humblest to the Greatest have much for Which we can be thankful, Both individually and as A nation collectively, And tomorrow should find Our people-on their knees In places of worship to Give expression to our Thanks to Almighty God. We should be thankful That we are privileged To live in a land where Peace on earth prevails And in which people drawn, From many lands and races, Can live together in full Harmony and under the rule Of freedom and liberty. We-should be thankful, too That on a broader scale The world has been saved From the horrors of, more Large-scale wars, although In some areas the peace Is an uneasy one, Our Thanksgiving prayer Is one of thanks for The privileges we have Enjoyed in Canada, and one Of intercession.that the Whole of mankind might Enjoy the good things That are ours in Canada.

McINTYRE HOOD On Wednesday evening of mext week, at the R. §. Mc- Laughlin Collegiate and Voca- tional Institute, the Oshawa Branch of the Canadian Con- cert Association will present the first of its 1964-1965 concerts.

The second half will feature modern works by Ken- nan, Weiner and a work special- ly commissioned by the Canada Council for the Hart House Orchestra, 'Fantasy and Allle- gro" by the Toronto composer, Harry Freedman. 14 YEARS OLD ' Now in its 14th year as an organization making a splendid contribution to the musical and cultural life of' Oshawa, the local branch of the Canadian Concert Association..has been the means of bringing to the city a great galaxy of musical stars and performances... includ- ing appearances of the Cana- dian Opera Company. Its rec- ords show that in the past 13 years, it has presented 575 art- istes of the highest calibre to the music-lovers of Oshawa, It has made a specific contribu- tion to the support of native Canadian performers by paying out to them in that time be- tween $80,000 and $90,000. This is truly a remarkable achievement by a smaii group of enthusiasts for the develop- ment of Canadian talent and the provision of top-class musi- cal entertainment for the peo ple of Oshawa. Abily led by Wallace Young and Mrs. George Drynan, who have been moving spirifs in this move- ment since its inception in Osh- awa, the Canadian Concert Association-of-Oshawa has to depend for its continued exis- BY-GONE DAYS 40 YEARS AGO Oct, 10, 1924 Mrs. F.

McKay was one of the speakers at a meeting which was called for the purpose of organizing a brotherhood of employed workers in the city, D. J. Brown, local jeweller, spent several days repairing the City Hall clock. A new cable was installed in the process. Announcement was made that the Oshawa Radio Club would commence broadcasting Nov. 1 with Don McKay as operator, Miss Beverly Millichamp, of Westmount, was appointed as- sistant librarian to take charge of the juvenile section. A bridge over the Oshawa Creek at Mill street was in pro- cess of being built. : City Treasurer P, A. Black- burn and Dr, T. W. G. McKay were elected to the YMCA Board of Directors. Mrs. J. L.

POINTED PARAGRAPHS The year's greatest experi- ence has been to spend a yaca- tion at a summer resort which lives up to what its publicity tence on the patronage given by citizens with tastes for the best in music. Since its begin- ning in 1951, the membership of the Association has fluctuat- ed up and down. At one time it went up to over 600. At another, it was down the 200 mark. But the devoted group of executive membership stands at over 300. It is on the sale of these season membership tick- ets that the success of the venture and its continuance depends. BALLET COMING Some idea of the vision and~ entenprise of the executive of the association is seen in the fact that for the second concert of the 1964-1965 series, it has anvanged for the appearance in Oshawa, on October 27, of the Royal Winnipeg Bailet. _ Re- nowned throughout Canada and the United States for its imagin- ative productions of the finest in ballet, this Winnipeg company has won its fame largely through the typically Canadian touch which it has given to some of the best of the old- established ballets. The com- pany has just completed a bril- Kant tour of the United States, and its appearance in Oshawa will be one of the highlights of the 1964-1965 season of music and entertainment for the peo- ple of this city. NEEDS SUPPORT It is indeed an ambiti that there are enough Interest- ed people in Oshawa to ensure a capacity audience at the R. S, McLaughlin Collegiate and Vocational Institute when it ap- here on October 27. While the backbone of the pearance of the Royal W! peg ballet, at least, every in the auditorium will be filled, great need in the city awa, that of providing est calibre of entertainment ai music for the enjoyment of the people of the city. We believe that it merits much more sup- port than it has been given. Surely, out of a population of 65,500, there are many more than 300 people interested in having fine music presented to them in their own city. They now have an opportunity of making sure that this associa- tion continues to operate by swelling its membership to at undertaking for this group of Oshawa lovers of the cultural things of life to bring this noted bailet company to the city. It has done so believing YOUR HEALTH Ganglions Can least double that total. And if anyone is interested in subscrib- ing for season tickets, Wallace Young and Mrs. George Drynan and their team of assocates will be glad to make that possible. Be Easily Removed By JOSEPH G. MOLNER, MD Dear Dr. Molner: What are ganglions? I understand they occur after a wrist injury. Do they also occur in the fingers? How can they, be prevented and what is the treatment? How do they differ from lipomas?--P.R. A ganglion in this sense (the same word is also used for a certain part of a nerve tract) is a small cyst, a- defect in the Sheath of a tendon. The most usual location is on the back of the hand, but they can occur elsewhere. An injury is thought to be the main factor in causing a gang- lion but there are theories that other conditions may be in- volved. There is no known means of prevention. Treatment of a ganglion is usually for cosmetic punposes-- the lump spoils the appearance of the hand. Or the possessor thinks it does. Less often a ganglion. may be painful and is treated or removed for that rea- s0n, Since the ganglion is a cyst (a sac or cavity filled with fluid) aspiration (removal of The Role Of the fluid through a hollow needle) is one treatment. Some- times an injury breaks the cyst open and iets it drain. But these cysts can recur, and the most certain method probably is surgical removai. A ganglion is a fluid-filled af- fair. A lipoma is a fatty tumor or growth beneath the skin: Dear Dr. Molner: Does tie douloureux have anything to do with shingles? --A.E.S, Theres no connection. 'Tic' is a painful inflammation of sensitive nerves of the face; shingles is a virus infection of a nerve trunk, Both are pain- ful, Treatments are entirely dif- ferent. Dear Dr. Molner: After my uterus and tubes were removed I had the belief that there would be no more interest in sex re- lations. But I find this is not so. How can this be?--J.K. You were misinformed. There is nothing unusual about you. In fact, you are entirely nor- mal. Hysterectomy does not diminish interest in sexual re- lations. Of course, pregnancy is no longer possible. Parents In Secondary Schools By The Ontario Federation Of Home and School Associations Education in the el tary gifted youngsters are tm jobs without challenge or reward when they might been 'Ss Or schools. nas not changed too nadically in the past generation, whereas developments in sec- ondary education have been ex- plosive in the past decade or so. Many parents who have been out of high school for upwards of 15 Rosi have little or no conception of what s on in- side a modera high school. What therefore is the effect of parental ignorance of the new methods, new courses, new em- phasis, new opportunities, to- day? Should the parents leave the direction the child takes in high school completely up to the school system? How many students are being put into unsuitable streams or left in wrong channels when they could easily have been re- directed, because parents did not realize the situation or know the remedies? How many times have we seen a promising stu- dent dulled to mediocrity, and then dropping out of school, dis- heartened when fuller under- standing on the pant of his par- ents might have sustained him through the peniod of discour- agement? . Many of our young people would go into life better edu- cated, better qualified, if par- ents knew of the availability of bursaries amd other financial aid to students, some of which 'are never awarded because of lack of applications. How many teach gineers if their parents had known that interest- free loans were available for the asking to finance a university education for any academically qualified students? These questions underline the reasons why the Ontario Fed- eration of Home and Schools is anxious to see more Home and School Association established in secondary schools. The basic aims are the same in elemen- tary and secondary Home and School Associations: to work for the good of children -- the direc- tion of effort, and the needs are different. In high school associations the dominant need iis to educate the parents so that they have a bet- ter understanding of all the ways they can support the edu- cation system to ensure that their children and others, get the most out of opportunities . available in today's secondary schools.
