comments mitchs juice in danger if its true as they say that the blame for all this hvdrophobia dates back to mitch hepburn what are we waiting for let bob saunders go over to elgin and cut off mitchs juice ottawa citizen lindsay has an idea the town of lindsay is considering an expenditure of 20000 for an auxiliary power plant that would eliminate all black outs in the northern town the lindsay commiss ion is delving into the matter and their findings will be watched with interest by other centres the solution would come by way of installation of a steam plant if the result is developed then the question may well be asked why cannot other places do the same perhaps a steam plant that would service more than one town like stouffville we hope our lindsay friends will be able to evolve a system that will be a lead to other places and a help in general to the hydro electric power commission of ontario still on top ice cream manufacturers of the united states and canada spent a good part of their 44th annual international convention trying to determine why ice cream sales have declined since 1946 a year in which all records for con sumption of this frozen delicacy were shattered many reasons were offered including the observation that maybe 194g was an abnormal year however there was no fear that either americans or canadians were becoming tired of their product per capita consumption this year will be approximately three gallons served in cones on saucers as the foundation of amazing soda fountain concoctions or within coatings of chocolate no cook book yet published has brought forth a rival to challenge the universal popularity it has known down through the years freezing the earth mining engineers in britain are freezing a section of the earths surface to a depth of over 400 feet this is a preparatory step to opening a new coal mine near notting ham which is expected to yield 1000000 tons a year this novel technique is necessary because the shaft of the mine must pass through a strata of porous sandstone- normal methods of excavation would entail pumping away more than 1000 gallons of water an hour which would seep into the workings from the nearby underground watershed a ring of pipes has been laid down around the spot where the shaft is to be sunk these pass through and under a strata of sandstone brine solution chilled to 37 degrees below freezing is circulating through them contin uously this will cause a collar of ice to form in about eight weeks time a natural barrier will thus be created within which the normal work of sinking the mine shaft can proceed a serious matter only a few weeks ago a whitchurch township girl suf fered severe injury when a bottle thrown from a passing car landed through the windshield last week a similar ac cident occured in kitchener or near there when a bottle thrown from a car broke on the pavement and splinters injured another girl in neither case was the offending motorist apprehended in the confusion which usually fol lows such mishaps the offender gets away as was the case in both these accidents there should be a stiff penalty provided for anyone throwing glass from a car and when caught the careless person should be given the full benefit of the law no doubt there is some law for such an offense now but it should be severe enough to make an example of the first person caught it is a serious and mean trick to carelessly hurl a bottle from a moving car and persons encountering such trouble should make every effort to get a car number difficult though it may be oshawv cits hydro three hours a day power cuts for three hours each day in oshawa started monday bince present power cuts totalling two hours a day were not suffici ent to keep the city within its daily quota of 190200 hours of an hour and another of 30 minutes in the afternoon when the general motors plant comes back into full production it is quite likely we will have to institute further power cuts g s shreve superintendent of oshawa kilowatt i hydro said the plant has been only partially shut down but when ride in on a bag of potatoes the windsor star suggests that some of uncle sams candidates would ride into office on a bag of potatoes and in this vein pens the following editorial if ever occasion arises when it becomes necesary for a canadian government spokesman to use blunt language to anyone in the united statvs rt hon c d howe is the man to do it not only does he know how to use blunt lang uage but can do it with a new england accent having been born and- raised in massachusetts- potatoes are big business in the new england states especially in maine there have been objections raised to canadian spuds going across the line competing with the local product there mr howe tersely tells us objectors that while canada buys 290000000 of fruits and vege tables annually from the united states it only sells 54- 000000 moulding potatoes to that country the united states has nothing about which to kick really trouble is an election campaign is on there and some new england candidates are trying to ride into office on a bag of potatoes perhaps mr howe being a politician himself should not be too tough on his onetime new england compatriots they are merely trying to make big potatoes out of small potatoes boys the same the world over out at indian head according to the indian head newspaper boys give trouble just like they do here in ontario or over in belgium they have the habit of getting into farmers orchards and the indian head news has this to say indignant sounds have been made this fall by those earnest citizens who cultivate and cosset fruit trees here of the small apple and plum variety they have been up against they say the seasonal attentions of that most dogged and difficult hazard to fruit the small boy the matter of control of daytoday pests they take in their knowing stride from borers to suckers to rot of the spleen but the twolegged citizen of tomorrow has them as always completely stumped the difficulty they claim is that you cant win tell the boy that he can go ahead and have some apples and he either informs all his friends of this joyous situation in which event you are in for a state of seige from then on or he overestimates the cubic capacity of his little insides in which case he becomes ill unto death and you have his father to reckon with on the other hand sternly refuse to negotiate what ever warn the boy of fearful retribution should he even so much as lay a finger on your apples and youre licked from the start in the ensuing nocturnal approachmarch countermarch and ambush its the indian and white man all over again you end up twigscratched sweaty raving out of puff and applesless the battle is over and you didnt win it the only sure solution is to do without apples we cant do without small bovs- the hydro disaster the hydro failure over ontario is wrecking industry and generally creating hardship never dreamed of before indeed it may well wreck the local systems as well the daytime shutoffs are the cause of local systems running up peaks that do not make any money but cause serious loss in revenue to the local councils or commissions that operate the individual systems for the municipalities in the case of stouffville a daytime shutoff cools down more than 80 hot water heaters when the power comes on these tanks all commence to draw power at the one time and when added to the normal daytime draw create a demand far out of proportion to the real amount of power consumed after the system commences to function normally thermostatic control keeps the demand for heater current down but when all draw current for half an hour together they set up a peak draw that is serious on this account this paper strongly favors evening cuts there are other considerations in favor of night cuts the daytime cut is not half saved for the work barred by the lack of power is done at some other time but power saving after dark cannot be gained back by the consumer thus there is not the same backlog of demand that is accumulated following a daytime cut the least interference with industry and business the better for the workman and everybody concerned night cuts are a nuisance but nobody suffers the same financially or at least less industry is hampered and the net saving is greater at night toronto and many towns much larger than stouffville are commencing night cuts in the homes the whole this is a disaster to ontario and we can only do our best by gaining the cooperation of every householder and con sumer of power if this is not forthcoming then the cuts will grow in number and in length stouffville is not getting down to the quota given us the public utilities commission it returns to full production we also served notice on individual will be in the same position as we industries that when they have were before when we were used the quota of power assigned exceeding our
