Supported By Good Staff, Wins Praise « Necessary extension of the public fealth' service, and particularly the gehool hedlth service--necessary is a uphemism, for the Department of ealth; ' Toronto, says it is compul- .pory--was stressed at today's meet- ng of the Rotary Club. There Dr. McKay, Oshawa"s Medical Health ,Officer, and Dr. J. T. Phair, direc- tor of the Division of Hygiene, Pro- vincial Department of Health, spoke before the club and a number of distinguished [citizens of fhe city, outlining the needs here. Oshawa, as a matter of fact, has advanced already very far along the road of public health and at the pre- sent moment boasts of ah efficient staff. But the trouble is that with a rapidly growing population, one quarter of which is foreign born, the 'task is never ending and pre- sents unusual difficulties. The address of Dr. Phair today presented the ideal which if carried out would have the effect of wiping out many diseases which still cause untold misery and discomfort to vie- tims and to relatives. Very marked progress has been made in the last quarter of a century, the expectancy of life being increased, it was de- clared, by fifteen years. Oshawa, it is becoming apparent, will. need in the very near future to detail one or more medical men to take over the duties of part-time health officers in connection with supervision of the health of school children. The way is being paved for this now. The Department of Health is beginning to insist that this duty be carried out and Oshawa so far is well WILL USE FAMOUS BED IN N. Y. PLAY Cecile Sorel is Bringing Cele- brated Bed From Paris Paris, Nov. 16.--Bringing one of the most famous beds in the world to use in a production on Broadway, Cecile Sorel, called the logical suc- cessor to Bernhardt, sails for the United States. In ~ addition to her husband, Count GuillJaumede Segur, the act- ress will be accompanied by a large company of actors and actresses who will take part in her repertoire. Madam Sorel's bed, which was once the property of Madame Dubarry, celebrated favorite of Louis XV., is a four-poster with perfume burners in advance of many other pl of the zame size, and being rather re- rarded as a model in this respect, will not be behind. The co-operation of parents is be- ing sought. It is_no reflection on parents that children may have something wrong with them which may not be serious enough to cause them to stay home from school but which brings trouble of various sorts; diseases or conditions which under the new system could be cor- rected. Health education is being stressed and being taught intensive- ly and a grat deal of good will come of it, it was shown, The Rotary Club seemed heartily in aecord with what was outlined to them. The speaker was intro- duced by Mr. E. W. Drew, chairman of the Board of Education. of my friends at home. fidence and support. The present contest is peculiar in that Premier Ferguson of his own ac- cord, and without the concurrence and mandate of the Conservative party, has Ontario, in the Ontario Legislature. TO THE ELECTORS OF SOUTH ONTARIO: -- 1 have again been nominated for the position of member for South If my record as your representative has been such as to meet with your approval, and the position I now hold is one which you feel is an honor to this constituency, and one which, with favorable endorsement in the Province, will enable me to a greater work for you in the future, I ask for your renewed con- throw nthe temperance question into politics. The Conservative aPrty is not advocating Government Control, but it is being advocated by Premier Ferguson, and his candidates. A vote for me is not a vote against the Conservative Party, but a vote aganst Premier Ferguson, who has used his high position to enunciate a policy without the endorsation of the Conservative Party in the Province. I therefore appeal to all the people re- gardless of their party affiliations to vote for me as a protest against bringing the temperance question into politics, and as a protest against the manner in which Premier eFrguson has dealt with the Legislature, and the people of On tario, disregarding the will of the people. The people by their votes have endorsed the Ontario Temperance Act on The Act should be maintained and enforced by the Legislature so lang as the people by their votes demand that it be maintained and enforced.

Oshawa ex- service men to the number of over one hundred cooperated in an im- pressive Armistice 'and Memorial service on Sunday afternoon in Whitby with a preliminary service before the beautiful Whithy Memor- ial and another in the Town Hall where Capt. the Rev. Sydney Lam- bert of Christie S'reet hospital spoke to a congregation including the Whitby Company of The Ontario Regiment, of veterans and a large assemblage of citizens of the town. Three bus loads of men and many well filled private motor cars con- veyed the Oshawa contingent which greatly augmented the parade at Whitby. Tre brass band of the Regi- ment played for the marching men and for the hymns during the ser- vice. Whitby clergy co-operated in the service. The service was under the au- spices of the Whitby war veterans' club the officers of which are: Honorary Presidents, James Pal- mer, R. T, MacLaren, M.D., A. G. Henderson; President, R. McNee; Vice-Presidents, Wm. Brown, J. Parner; Secretary, E. M. Lomax; Treasurer, W. McCarl; Executive, S. Bragg, R. Bailey, G. (Brown, J. Dair. Familiar hymns, special prayers, a solo by Mr. W. A. Dewland "Sons of Men" admirably sung, with an accompaniment 'by Miss Kathleen Leask, a two minutes' silence in honor of fallen comrades and a prayer of commemoration by Rev. John Lindsay led up to Capt. Lam- hert"s address. While the ceremonies of the past week caused one to dwell on the sad side of the war, all that went on in the life of a soldier was not sad he said and he was not going to stress the sad part of it. The soldier re- membered leaves in Paris but par- ticularly in London as not the least sad. "And there is no great city like London," he observed. "It is the centre of the world's civilization no matter what any one may tell you." Another observation was that no one could regard the war dead as could the soldier himself, knowing as he did what the loss of com- rades meant in the truest sense. "These men who went forth to war,, they are your own people, they are the sons of Canada and I am glad to say they are now more than ever before coming into their own. The spirit of reunion is at work. "The great need of Canada is that it shall remain British." He stressed the need on the part of the public generally of generosity to the returned men. "Many of them are now breaking down. Many of these men before me may yet break down. We are getting them in the hospital where my work lies more frequently than before. Be generous to them. They offered all they could even life itself for you." Falling in in front of the Whitby armouries the troops and the vet- erans marched first to the park where the Whitby veterans were. Then they marched back to the Memorial and after a short service there during which wreaths were deposited and honors paid and the band played "Abide With Me" while the crowds stood reverently, they marched to the Town Hall. The streets were lined with people and not nearly all who de- sired could gain admittance to the Hall for the service. The Armouries Dance The dance given in the armouries on Saturday night was largely pat- ronized. An orchestra in the centre of the floor played most inviting trots and waltzes and officers, non- coms, and men and veterans at var- ious times were all seen to be en- joying the affair hugely. It was con- tinued until nearly midnight. FEWER BANKRUPTCIES Ottawa, Nov. 14, --Fewer bank- ruptcies, but greater liabilities, oc- curred in Canada in September "last, as compared with September, 1925. Commercial failures last September totalled 126. In September, 1925, they totalled 151. The liabilities of the as- signors, however, reached. a total of $2,497,610 last September, compared with $1,528,715 in September; 1925, Select - your Christmas gifts at A. O.

Cole, rTade Commissioner, Outilnes Conditions Interviewed by ' The Reformer, Douglas S. Cole, Canadian Trade Commisisoner to the West of Eng- land, South Wales and Midland, and who is located in Bristol, England, stated that Canada's greatest need at the present time is increased ex- ports. "It is amazing how many Canadians who consider the ques- tion of export trade in relation to national finance consider simply the large, favorable balance of ex- ports from imports, whilst neglect- ing the interest of foreign loans and profit of foreign capital, invest- ed in Canada. If we place Canada's favourable trade balance fcr: last year at $400,00,000, we must not pat ourselves on the back too readily for the interest on foreign loang and profits on foreign capital which are estimated at about $350,000,- 000. Canada must not complacently accept their present export trade but must fight for every dollar of export trade they can lay their hands to overcome the heavy invisi- ble debts. "In so far as trade with tha Uni- ted Kingdom is cencerned we are in a very strong position. For the 12 months ending Sept., 1926, our favourable balance of trade was $328,000,000. "It is noteworthy that the devel- opment of Canadian export trade has been four-fold in the past twenty vears despite tariff hindrances and exceedingly heavy competition par- ticularly . since the War. We are urged by the consciousness of de- nreciated currency and the imposi- tion of high tariff walls to turn with relief to any movement of prefer- ential tariff. The present Imperial Conference is not without signifi- cance and the utterances of the Secretary of State for the Dominions and Colonies in London coupled with statéments by the Canadian Prime Minister lead one to believe that we are on the outer circle of till greater drives in the interests of Empire trade. "Concerning his trade area, Mr Cole stated that there were three sections as previously mentioned, the west of England was an extrem- ely Conservative area which had great wealth. _The largest port is Rristol and already over $35,000,- 000 has been spent on the develop- ment of Avonmouth docks which are located 7 miles below Bristol nnd which catered to the import trade. . In grain alone, Avonmouth hand- les in the vicinity of 1,000,000 tons, nr $40,000,000 yearly and Canada is the chief shipper. To this port alone comes over 10 per cent of the total U.S, grain. Important Produce Distributing Centre The same port is' a pioneer in the Canadian butter and cheese trade of Bristol importers can trace dealings in Canadian supplies back to 1875. The Victoria street area of Bristol today literally bristles with produce importers, wholesale houses, prod- uce brokers and commission men to whom the Canadian produce trade constitutes no smal part of their yearly income. "In 1925 of the 9,600 boxes of J cheese imported into Avonmonth 76 per cent was of Canadian origin which is astonishing and most ac- ceptible. 28,000 tons of butter were distributed through Avon- mouth and of this 51 per erent was of Canadian origin. For the same period Canadian bacons and hams constituted 46 per cent of the amount--4,360 tons--imported. These figures ho not include wiater shipments of provisions via Port- land, Maine, which would consider- ably swell the Canadian total. '""An outstanding' feature of bro- duce trade has been the shipments of Western Canada botter and it is a pleasure to state that this new product owing to its high quality has established an excellent reputation throughout the trade. Oher Canadian commodities being imported through Bristol in consid- erable quantities are apples, flour, sugar, lumber, rubber foot wear, tobacco, coneentrated apple juice, player. pianos, box boards, washing machines and cereals. Canadian Tobacco "As regards tooacco, supplies of | Burley and Green River variety are receiving increasing attention and the only limitations for shipments is the considerable demand for domes- tic use. It will be appreciated that the head of the large tobacco com- bine In the U. K. is located in Bris- tol. Wales and Midlands "The other two areas are South Wales whose largest ports are Car- diff, Swansea, Newport and Barry, these together with certain other ports are all controlled by the Great Western Railway and constitute the largest dock system under one own- ership in the world. South Wales is of course at the present time un- dergoing a very severe period | brought about by the coal strike. It may be stated that the coal- export trade is head of South Wales pros- perity and all other trades are in a very secondary position. The South Midlands area include the import- ant cities of Birmingham, Coventry, Leister and Northampton, where are located the automobile, hosiery, boot and shoe and iron and steel trades. "London, York, is the and export trade, South of course, like New heart of the import but it must be re- membered that the provincial mar- kets in the western areas include a population greater than the whole of Canada and should riot be ne- FAMOUS CRIMINAL REPORTED CAUGHT Fred Mustinoviteh, Wanted in Canada, Arrested, Dis- patch Says 16.-----A spee- Wash., Calgary, Alta., Nov. ial dispatch from Spokane, to the Calgary Herald says: "Fred Martinoviteh, internation- ally known eriminal, known to the police of both eastern and western Canada and the United States, has been arrested and is now in the county jail at Davenport, 40 miles west of Spokane. He was arrested at Odessa, a little town near Daven- port, on charges of robbery and at- tempting to escape from custody. '""Martinovitch 1s wanted by Can- |adian authorities for escaping from |custody while awaiting transfer from the Alberta Provincial Police guard room at Calgary to a peniten- tiary following his conviction on robbery charges, and also for es- caping from a police escort at Moose Jaw, Sask., after he had been captured at Oshawa, Ont, "While awaiting a hearing on {charges of robbing an Odessa store, Martinovitech attempted to escape from jail. He took up the floor of his cell and burrowed underneath like a badger, worming his way along by putting the gravel and rocks behind. He was almost away when boys heard him and no- tified the town marshall. He was {then hand-cuffed and taken to Da- | venport. Bertillon records at Spo- kane are said to show that finger prints taken at Odessa correspond with his Canadian record. "Questioned by the police he de- clared his real name was Joe Na- noda, that he was 38 years old and born in Poland, and that he is will- ing to be sent to the state peniten- tiary at Walla. Walla if it will save him from being turned over to the Canadian authorities." So far Mr. Cole has found great nterest shown by Canadian export- ers and he hopes that as a result of his tour in Canada very favourable connections will made in his trade area. be glected by Canadian business men."
