LAKEVIEW PARK 5 | "United D; Tresidder, "representative. 'No one can visit Lakeview Park without a gene of gratitude for such a spot that stands 89, close to the city, yet in the very heart of the out-of-doors, The very approach to it is a matter of de- light. The waving grace of a roadside marsh cannot fail to affect one with an inward thrill of delight, Ahead, the smoky waters of Lake Ontario are seen through the fretwork of the apple orchard's century-old trees, Low cliffs front the lake itself whose remote waters lie imperially outstretched towards the south, yet breaking in a languid froth of ivory and liquid emerald on the peddled margin be- neath the spectator's feet, But all this beauty of open water and: flower fringed shores are made too far for very many of Ophawa's citizens who need the park's gracious charms the most, The Lakeview Park road is more than un- comfortable, it is dangerous; and its condition is keeping many from a share in the park's scene of beauty to which they are entitled, Every effort should be made to put the road in good condition; to make it, in fact, a high- way worthy of the city and the fine park to which it leads, CO-OPERATE 15 34 Fy Announcement of a general service reorgani- zation at the Oshawa post office is received with keen appreciation throughout the city, Additions to the letter carrier staff and out- lining of new routes will do much towards putting logal mail distribution on a par with that in the largest cities, However, as the postmaster points out, the efficiency of the delivery service does not rest entirely upon the staff, whether large or small, Citizens themselves can co-operate by provid- ing mail boxes, door slits or other receptacles at their homes so that the carriers may make deliveries, without unnecessary delay. That fifty per 'cent. of the city's homes are not equipped with proper mail receiving facili- ties is a revroach that should be speedily re- moved, The cost of house mail boxes or door slits ranges, it is stated, between 50 cents and 8 dollar, | No similar investment could bring quicker returns in more efficient service, The postmaster asks for co-operation, and the comnion sense of citizens should see to it that he gets it. THE STANDPATTER ; : "I have 4 great deal more faith in the aver- age business man than I have in the average reformer," Elbert Hubbard once wrote, Hubbard may have heen the first person who , put the thought Tn print, but it cannot be gain- ' said that "them has long been the sentiments" of the average person. It is no secret why right-thinking men and women have more faith in the business man than in the reformer. It is simply an eternal admiration for the creator. The man in busi- ness is creating something. He is in the service of the people, filling a positive demand. But what is the reformer? At best he is only a theorist. While the business man is filling the public's order, the reformer makes orders for the public to fill. The business man renders his service before demanding his pay, while the reformer demands his pay and then promises a service, guaranteed only by his word. Reformers have' never oy ry. pdr because theory is ever has never been found a of nd there the sincere from the imposter. Contaies 880 business was on a similar basis with 'and dishonest merchants in the same Then the public watched Ha eforiper re eye and kept the other nea nl Yo It is lamentable that reforming not Xept pace with business. Today business is firmly established on a foundation of public service and one price. Reformers are still guarantee- ing mo service and claiming many prices. > AMERICAN HOMES THE BEST *Providin' a home" on this continent has become something more than a house, some furnishings and two store accounts, in fact the average home of today boasts of vepiences, 'prs dunusiont fupnitgre 'the Aadit Bureau ; Temperance Street, Telephone . THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, JULY 27, 1927, To ---- --" more Tauren "than the best homes in the smaller cities and towns of a score of years ago. A bungalow or a "parlor, bedroom and bath" meant one thing with the last generation but means quite another thing with the present. There is more for contrast than comparison, So revolutionary has been the advancement in the standards of living that there is little solace for the young men and women who to- day embark upon the sea of matrimony in such | a frail craft as "thirty.a-week" and one pay- Be) down Sting Sufoitase Even the old- Ys are themselves daunted: by the ho domioatic 'demands, How .. dazzled «would our ancestors be upon entering a middle-class home of today with its overstuffed furnifure, fine rugs, tasteful mural furnishings, pianos and phonographs, perhaps a radio, fine table service, relatively large lib- rarvies and with a garage and automobile in the back yard, Surely not without less cause than for common folks of today to be dazzled by the luxuriance of a millionaire's mansion or a king's palace. There seems little foundation for the oft- repeated lamentation that the home. is losing jts attraction, On the other hand, there are few today who can see where the home of the nineties or the early twentieth century pos- sessed any attraction other than as the tradi- tional place to eat and sleep, But then the home-detractions have undoubtedly progressed step-for-step with the home attractions, Why shouldn't the people of today be the most contented, the most peaceful, the most ambitious and the most enlightened people in the world with such home surroundings? -- PLANS FOR OSHAWA FAIR Plans for the annual fair of the South On- tario Agricultural Society, to be held at Alex- andra Park beginning September 15, are show- ing splendid progress, Coupled with the announcement that Major. General J, H, MacBrien, C.B,, G.M.C,, D,8,0,, is to open the fair this year is the staterent that some 6,000 passes are being forwarded to public school children in this district for the opening day which, in consequence, will be known as Children's Day, It is believed that, aside from other benefits both to the children and the fair, the local exhibition will have a record breaking attend- ance of all ages for the opening day. The alchemy of progress has, in a few cen- turies, changed the nature of the fair, Not so long ago, a fair wag p sort of super-market at which the merchafidise of many countries was exhibited for immediate sale. Today, the sale idea is made subordinate to that of demonstrative advertising, and if is in that field that the annual fair--whether held in a village or a metropolis -- stands almost alone. Yet, such is the fair's peculiar value, it can- not help but teach the importance of coptinuous publicity to those that would succeed in busi- ness. The exhibits which attract the most in- terest at modern fairs are those with which the buying public has been made familiar through constant advertising.

The fact that 114,697,730 bushels' of 'Canadian grain passed through the Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Natal last year, as against only 070,988 bushels of American » n, is noted, and the opinion expressed is that a much larger proportion of this grain should move through Canadian ports to the' additional advantage of Cana- dfan transportation and shipping agencies, NEEDED AS COMPLEMEN I "0 NEW WHLLAND CANAL (From the Hamilton Herald) From Natural Resources, the of- ficial organ of the federal depart- ment of the interior, one learns some interesting facts about the new Welland canal, now approach- ing complet The estimated time on passing a loaded vessel through the entire canal is eight hours, as against fifteen to elgh- teen hours on the present canal. Up to the present the length of vessels reaching Lake Ontario either from the St. Lawrence or Lake rie has been about 2560 feet, but with the completion of the new canal, we are told, it will he pos- sible for the 600-feet freighters now plying the upper lakes to pass into' Lake Ontario, The query immediately suggest- ed hy these figures isi' 1f this great public, 'work {s being ocn- structed in guder that vessels 600 feet long may -pass from Lake Erie into Lake (pfario, 1s the expendi- ture of morq than a hundred mil- lions on the, canal worth "while? 'Probably fely of the big 'upper- lake vessels wonld use the canal if their eastern destination were to be a Lake Ontario port. The chief function of the new Welland canal Is to serve as a necessary link in the great St, Lawrence seaway con- necting the lakes with the ocean- a channel through which ocean ships will pass Into the upper lakes and pass hack to the ocean with cargoes of Canadian and Am- ersgan products, If the St, Lawrence seaway is pot to be undertaken, the vast sum which the new Welland cali] will have cost by the time it 1§ com- pleted will, have been i rgely wasted exppffoure y Registered: gn © accordance with the Lopyright Act, NURSING ANFECPED TONSILS I heard recently of a young wo man who has been "nursing" in- fected tonsils for over a year. He: physician advised thelr removal, pointing out the possibility of rheu- matism and organic heart disease Her disinclination toward the opera ton was so intense that she forsook her doctor, and took other methods of treatment, including electricity. She was suddenly stricken the other day with acute inflammatory rheumatism, complicated with a: acute heart inflammation, and it means weeks in bed at absolute rest, with the outcome somewhat doubtful. Reporting on the causa- tion of rhewmatism and rheumatic héart disease 'in children in Eng Jand, Dr. Reginald Miller tells us that the disease is rargf ink private Schools where facilities' : are pro- vided for drying wet clofhing, but common in he state elementary schools whieh; jack such provision Briefly he donsidered I the second most important factor. And what is the first one? Chronically infected tonsils were found in 95 per cent. of the cases. He found that the early removal of diseased tonsils in the upper classed tended to protect them from rheumatic infection. Now for years dampness, over- | work, hunger, worry, strain, and fatigue have all been thought to have something to do with causing rheumatism. Of course, muscular pains, or what was formerly called muscular rheumatism, was very frequeatly found, as this was thought to be due to cold, wet, or other agents slowing up the circulation in the part. Now the point fs this. Many folks with badly infected tonsils escape rheumatism and heart dis- ease, and a few jndivildals with- out tomsillar trougle have rheuma- tism and heant disease but there is mo evading the fact that Dr. Miller reponts 95 per cemt. of these English cases had bad tonsils. Other research men tell us that the tomsils are to blame in three cases out of four. Tonsils that are healthy, evem if large, should mot be disturbed un- less they are imterfering with the breathing. But to allow a child to retain infected tomsils, that have outlived their usefulness as filters, is simply taking chances on rheumatism and heart disease.
