TT © MONDAY, JULY 18, 1927 hat A GREDIT TO RURAL ONTARIO COUNTY a : It has been said that "God made the coun- try and man the town," This statement could be itilken 'as a sneer at urban communities, de- served in some instances, But where man really plans his larger centres, the result is créditable to the builder, ven in the country, richly endowed as is Ontario County, the hand of man can and does add to the varied beauty of rural scenery, It'is noteworthy of this country's farming sections that few homes are found not sur- rounded by fine, well-kept lawns to which true garden lovers have added the beauty of well selected flowers and shrubs, A certain unkemptness about farmsteads in the busy cultivating season is so entirely ex- cusable that few would think of mentioning it critically or otherwise, Vigitors: this summer, who have seen much of the country's less frequented sections, have, however, been so struck by the uniformly high. standard maintained in Ontario county's farm gardens that special mention is in order. hings of this sort constitute the best kind of an advertisement. Good people do live on farms where little or no attention is paid to '"dress- ing, up" with lawns and herbaceous borders, bl wher such things are made a matter of pride, the casual visitor cannot help but be impressed. As a result, something of value is added to the County's mood /name--now as always more "to be chosen than riches." bx ACTION NEEDED h m-- ial sessions of the Legislative Assem- bly; hive béén' called to deal with matters of no more concern to the people of Ontario than thegituation which exists on its highwi¥k, Without going to that length, it strikes the indignant citizen. who does try to practice safety first principles in driving that one thing can be cleared up at once, That is to sayyithe glaring headlight menace, A trip be- tween Oshawa and Toronto after dark is, in nerve strain at least, comparable to a similar perigd spent in the active battle zones of the late war, Common sense suggests that if inspectors were placed at stragetic points throughout Ontario, and these inspectors given authority andiitrained to efficiency, the glaring headlight menace could be appreciably reduced within a week, Followed up, that breeder of highway accidents would become an unhappy memory in aishort time, . me of the causes of highway accidents ean never be wholly eliminated, But half a hundred inspectors or less could do very much towards remedying an intolerable situation. They eould enforce standardization of automo- bile lighting, check brake efficiency, and by thei very presence at given points impress the weckless or the foolhardy with the fact that: Ontario's highway's were built for safety 8s Well as service, y! THE ART OF SILENCE " In: the world's literature a place of no mean distinction must be assigned to the more per- sonaj and intimate communications which in ordipary life we call "letters," Many a writer has esled himself in his letters in a way which throws much light on his more imper- contributions to literature, In other wi of life great personalities have become (jo known for these epistolary intimacies, ' there are letters to which neither the y nor the literary critic has done jus- tic letters which were never written, of library shelves could be filled with se unpenned messages. Who among us is late or so unresponsive that he has in his head a dozen or more of these es which never saw the light of day? has not meditated eloquently. in anticipa- tion pf writing a letter of condolence--a sooth- ing that was never expressed? \ : has not burned passionately over an in. to himself or someone else, and in his constructed a letter that would make' of Rome to rise and mutiny ;" and who has not found that when a few days after- ward this incident came again to mind, that 50 not fon Baily Tienes | THE OSHAWA DAILY'TIMES, "MONDAY. 'JULY' 8) 1937 + = +7 this eloquence hdd never found expression on paper, and that the fires of :passion had just naturally gone out as other fires do in"time? Perhaps in that inscrutable way which mem- ory has we are reminded one day of a dear but now far-off friend. Instantly comes the re- solve that we must write to him; in a reminis- cent way we shall go over some of the times, never to be forgotten, of long years ago; we shall let him know that more than ever we value his friendship. We know exactly what we are going to say; we know what will make Bill feel good. ' But Bill 'never gets the letter. This one, too, goes to make up the untold mil- lions of unwritten letters. What wonderful letters are those that were never written! . THE WEATHER It is amusing how we grumble about the weather, no matter what it is," We all do/it, Towards the end of June this yédr, the (com- plaint was about the lack of warmth, "lg it ever going to get warm?" 'was the\cry. "Why don't we have some boiling hot weather? I love heat but this coolness is most uncomfort- able." As if in response to these numerous and loudly expressed complaints, the weather be- gan to warm up just before Dominion Day, It was boiling hot, all right; there was no doubt about that, And then came complaints on all sides about the heat, How terribly, how infolerably hot it was! Couldn't we have a thunderstorm? Was it never going to rain again? When would there be a break in the heat wave? The rain came; a couple of days of it, While it was at it, the rain lost no time, Some wise people said, "This will be good for the farms. This rain was needed." But many grumbled _ still, "What a wretched day! Just like an Oc- tober downpour! Now exactly what sort of weather would suit everyone in July and August? There are many constructive suggestions but no two of them are exactly alike, It is a wonderful blessing that no government is responsible for the weather, But humanity must have some- thing to grumble about, some safety valve tor emotion and some topic for conversation, / DRESS AND SUCCESS The dictum rendered by an association of re- tail clothiers that, if you dress well, you'll be successful, may be prompted more by self-in- terest than a desire to state a fact. "Apparel oft proclaims the man," was the judgment of Polonius and there is much of truth in that. Dressing well-may be highly desirable, indis- pensable under some circumstances, but that it is a guarantee of success leaves much to doubt, Unquestionably the stranger is judged super- ficially by his clothing and character may be indicated by the taste exhibited, Those in cer- tain professions and callings are inclined to adopt an attire that proclaims their pursuits, though this is in evidence less, possibly, than was the case once. There is now a tendency to sameness and the one who affects to be dif- ferent from the mass is the exception, Propriety should be the dictator of dress, One is dressed well whose clothing conforms to his employment. The farmer in overalls is as well dressed when at work as is the lawyer in court, though the latter's attire costs much and the former's' little. Back of the clothing is the man and if he have not the elements of suc- cess within him no amount of apparel which he may pile on his back will for long sustain him in a job for which he is not fitted. What is appropriate dress for one occasion of business would be the opposite for another. Circum- stances should govern the matter, EDITORIAL NOTES People are never satisfied. Any traffic cop can tell you that young men with money to burn persist in burning the wind. Science has discovered that soda water is fatal to germs, but that isn't why it is sold in drug stores. Judge Landis is reported not to have decided as yet what steps he will take in this fall's world series scandal. Bit of Verse THE PASSING DAY Lose this day loitering--it will be the same story Tomorrow and the next more dilatory; The indecision brings its own delays, And days are lost lamenting o'er lost days. Are you in earnest? Seize this very minute-- What you can do, or dream you can, begin it, Courage has genius, power and magic in it Only engage and then the mind grows heated, Begin it and the work will be completed. : --Goethe. --- Bethesda, July 18.--Mr. Waite, of Port Hope, is visiting his son, Mr. Everton White, this week.
