Ontario alone needs five hundred farm hands at the present moment and 'cannot get them, The general opinion has been for some years that Canada needs immigrants who will take up farming and that she requires no others, It is guestionable whether this theory will bear investigation, If farmers were scarce in Can- ada, the prices of farm products would be much igher than they are, Apparently Canada consumers of food as well as producers An increased population would mean a larger market, both for manufactured goods and for farm products, important point about immigration is not uch the occupation of the immigrants, but the sort of people they are.

SWITHIN'S DAY he fifteenth is St. Swithin's Day and, 'the weather man's repeated assurances that "there is nothing, absolutely nothing to it," a large number of folk: will ponder on the legend and turn their eyes Leavenward to read the portents. For is it not written that if it -zains on St. Swithin's Day it will rain every day for forty days thereafter, or contrariwise? And what boots it that it has never been known to come true? Who are we that we should take issue with a fable so hoary, or a legend sb honoured by time? For there is a curious vein of fact running through "the fable. There actually was a Swithin, Swithun--in Latin, Swithunus. He was not a "drunken" saint, as some writers rh " was mot 2a "saint" at all, never having been formally canonized. But he was a deacon under Bishop Elinstan, and then succeeded the latter as Bishop of Winchester, England, in which office he greafly distinguished himself by his piety. i - says he died in the year 862 and at his own wish, was buried in the churchyard at the side of Winchester Cathedral, close to the wall and under the eaves of the build- ishioners unwilling to have any of their dead laid in that part of the grounds. There he rested for more than one hundred years, Then the famous Archbishop Dunstan . of Canterbury, aided by his friend Rishop Ethelwold of Winchester, conceived the scheme of transferring his remains to a fine tomb within thc cathedral, So, on July 15, in the year 971, by royal com- mand of King Edgar, the remains of Swithin were transferred from the humble grave in the churchyard to a splendid tomb in the nave of the rebuilt cathedral, A little later the cathe. dral itself was named for Swithin, Now, as to the thunder storm story. Accord- ing to the pious monk Wolstan and other his- torians of that time, there was no storm at all, and no interruption of the work, It was a clear and beautiful day, a vast concourse of people was in attendance, a great out-of-doors feast was held in honour of Swithin, and the whole splendid ceremonial went through with. out a hitch and with the apparent high favour of the elements, Of course, forty days of rain, or forty days without rain, is quite unknown at this time of year, in Winchester and in Oshawa, To de- monstrate the fallacy of the prediction, note was taken at the Greenwich observatory of the character of the weather on July 156 and the forty days following, during a period of twenty years, In not a single year was the legend borne out, When it rained on July 15, a ma- jority of the following forty days were always fair, When the sun shone it invariably rained on some of the next forty days. TIME GIVEN A SETBACK As sporting events the Lindbergh and Cham- berlin flights were beyond comparison, but there obviously is some difference of opinion as to the economic and scientific value of such flights, Some see no utilitarian value in them, 'while others show a tendency to exaggerate such value, The element of time is the first considera- tion. In these days when personal conference is often necessary to transact business a trans- atlantic air service of forty hours might save millions, for time is money, It is of some value to know that one can go to Europe by air in one-third the time it takes by water, Aeronautical engineers say the two epochal fights have proved of inestimable value to the science of aviation, They have learned much about oceanic air currents and the needs and problems of long-distance flying, Lindbergh has opened up a field of possibili- ties that seem to be solidifying into probabili- ties and actualities, The change will affect the economic relations of the world, It is possible that commodities, particularly perishable commodities, might be transported by 'air between continents at far less cost, be- cause of minimized loss, than by steamship. The fruits of the Mediterranean, and even of the Orient, might be brought to North America and the fruits of California and Florida sent to London, Paris and Berlin without refrigera- tion or premature picking. However, those on the con side of the debate can safely argue that the steamship companies need see in transatlantic flights no cause for immediate concern over the possibility of ships of the air putting ships of the sea out of busi- ness, That may come but probably not in Lind- bergh's time, EDITORIAL NOTES A philosopher is one who gets what he wants in this world by wanting less. If an old man is rich enough he can purchase 8 young wife; but if he can purchase her, she isn't worth much. Some find college work easy because they have wonderful brains, and some because they have wonderful biceps. | | A Bit of Verse VISION God is my sight, Through Him I see; He holds my hand And leadeth me.

Dr. H, L, Halt- house, of MePherson, Kansas, jump- ed a jack-rahbit when driving, The animal took to the road ahead of his car. He 'stepped on her," and the race was on. At twenty-five miles an hour the rabbit yawned with boredom. The speed was run up to thirty and then thirty-five, with the long-eared hunny holding his own. The speed was further increased, and when the speedome- ter showed thirty-eight miles une car gained. At forty miles an hour the rabbit jumped sidewise and disappeared in the swamp along- side the road, A MILLION FIGHTERS (New York Telegram) can troops in China , the British Due to the increase of Ameri- government has ordered the with- drawal of an entire brigade.

THE ART OF THE MOVIES (New York Evening World) "When Greek met Greek in the arena in those ancient times," writes Jack F. Murray, from St. Louis, "the result was usually a good athletic contest of some kind. When Greek meets Greek today they open a restaurant, so the wags tell us. But let me tell of some- thing else that happened "when Greek met Greek!

Now milk, as you know, is one of | our best foods. It has heen called the "perfect" food because it con- taing all five classes of foods, that Is proteids, starches or sugars, fats, salts, and water, Yet it iy not a good blood huilder according to research workers of Johns Hop- kins University, Now what have our research men to suggest hloo hlood building foods? They tell us that the kidney of pig or heef, is one of the most favorahle diet factors to promote the actual manufacture of red blood cells and the haemoglobin hat %Yills these red cells. An abundant diet there fore of liver and kidney during any severe anaemia is one of the first considerations. You see the liver is a great stor- age warchouse for the substances that help Joo make the red blood cells, It is suggested that the kid ney also may be concerned with preserving and storing some of the materials that enter formation of red cells. And when you yvemember the work that is done in the body hy the kidney and liver in getting rid of poisons and being storehouses besides, you can see how important must he their structure. That our research men have been able to util the pro duets that are in th idney and liver eeils, to build up rich blood, is just one more achievement to their credit. into the However, this does not mean that the ordinary healthy individual should live on a diet of liver and hecause y kidney, as a matter of fact, these are concentrated foods and usually leave too much resi- due or "cinders" in the system. It does mean, however, that in cases of anaemia or other wasting ailment, that a diet rich in liver or kidney will help build up new cells in a shorter time than will other foods. And when we remember that a few years ago the liver and | kidney of cattle were not consid- ered worthy to be sold, it sii | how our knowledge of food values | is increasing. 29x4.40 BALLOONS $10.95 GOODYEAR BUILT F you drive a Ford, Chevrolet, Overland, or other car using 29x 4,40 tires, here's your chance to buy guaran teed balloon equipment for mighty little money, You know Goodyear You know Good- year quality, Pathfinders e made by Goodyear-- and to give these big, Tires, J sturdy, tough-treaded Pathfinder Balloons that extra strength and sup- pleness which means tire comfort and tire econ- omy, they are built with SUPERTWIST -- Good- year's exclusive cord, tires, see the 30 x of SUPERTWIST, $7.95 All Weather Tire Shon ROY WILLMOT Guaranteed Vulcanizing Phone 2462 Oshawa 5 Celina Street If you use high-pressure 3g Pathfinder Copds--buile Our service is immediate and personal--not delayed and by mail, CARTERS Real Estate | J.
