SATURDAY, AUGUST 13, 1927 A FALLACIOUS THEORY In their anxiety for permanent peace the world over, some of the more ardent pacifists have gone to the extreme of openly favouring the halting of those lines of science and inven- tion which serve the ends of war. For these reasons there is opposition to the development of aircraft and even chemical research, 1 Thus would some deny humanity the neces- sary 'implements of peace for fear that human- ity might sometime use them for war, They would obstruct progress to stop war, appar- ently not realizing that there were wars be- fore there was powder and cannon, They may be prompted by a dread that further develop- ment "of aircraft and chemical research may make the wars in the future more terrible than those in the past, This debate has a parallel in the history of the education of the masses and of free speech and free thought. For many centuries church and state bridled the minds and tongues of the multitudes on the pretence that too much know- ledge was a dangerous thing, The common people were not told and were too ignorant to see for themselves that the danger in knowledge was to the ruling classes for whom universal education meant loss of power. Because some may misuse their education, are others to be denied its blessing? Because the airship may some day be a powerful instrument of war- fare, is the world to be deprived of its trans- portation advantages in peace time? OUT OF DATE After spending $1,000,000 on preliminary surveys, Chicago has abandoned its proposed centennial exposition in 1933. Money was to be had, co-operation was assured, the city was enthusiastic and the centennial of the city's founding justifics such an exposition. But the committee found that international exposi- tions &re too provincial for this age. In 1893 Chicago pointed to the Columbian Exposition as conclusive proof of her metro- politan 'character and her high rank among the cities of the world. Today, a proposed ex- position far surpassing in magnitude the Co- lumbian fair is called "small town stuff." There are a number of reasons for this change in the public's attitude toward world fairs. Foremost among them, perhaps, is the fact that people today can see the wonders of the world without going to an exposition, Nothing that is worth seeing is now produced in any part of the world without soon finding its way even to the "provinces." International expositions and world's fairs have always been staged in the larger cities because the city was an added attraction to hundreds of thousands of visitors from the rural hinterland. So many towns have be- come large cities and the automobile has brought the city so close to the country that a trip to the city is no longer an adventure ex- perienced only once in a lifetime by most people. Philadelphia's sesquicentennial exposition was poorly managed and advertised, inaugur- ated prematurely and capitalized by politicians both in and out of office, but it is believed it could have overcome all those obstacles and been financially successful had there been a real public demand for the exposition. The British Empire Exhibition at Wembley in 1924 and 1925 was by no means a success. World's fairs are out of date but the Canadian National Exhibition goes on flourishing year after year. TORONTO-TELEGRAM-CHURCH Though the heading on this note might ap- pear to be an amplification of the initials TAC, it Is not so. We have just been read- and Tommy Church in a vigerous sort of way. not care for any of the three, nor for itself. it always appears to us that it is fool- i other cities and towns in Ontario to criticize the provincial capital in this way. ) is a large city, made up chiefly of men and women who were born and at least partly brought up in the other cities or the towns, villages, and rural districts of this Province. The whole population of that metropolis should not be blamed for the noisy clamour of those of its inhabitants who talk too much. : Says the London Press, "The whole trouble with the Conservative party in the past has been too much Toronto. The biggest handi- cap under which the Conservative party labours is the result of the idiotic remarks that eman- ate from Toronto members and Toronto ward- heelers." : 'There is no doubt that Tommy Church talks too much for his own good and for the good of the Conservative party, And, of course, the Toronto Telegram reports every word he says, Anyone who reads the Telegram has difficulty in being sure whether Tommy Church writes the Telegram's editorials or whether the editor of the Telegram writes Tommy's speeches, Neither is the case. They have two minds with just a single thought--if it can be called a thought--and the thought changes rather rapidly from day to day. But does anyone take either of them serious- ly? We think not, They do not fairly re- present the Conservatives of Toronto, The Conservative party in that city must not be judged by those two fountains of words nor be blamed for their continuous and incoherent utterances. Tommy is the leader of a party right now--a party of one in the House of Commons. . There is no doubt that party is a ginger group, nay, a red pepper group, The London Free Press says that "in Parliament he is a plain, unadulterated nuisance and bore." Of course, But why not be thankful that there are no more like him? So far as we can see, the Conservative con- vention in Winnipeg is going to be thoroughly representative of the Conservatives of Canada. A good policy will certainly be framed and a suitable leader selected. Why worry about garrulous critics so long as men and women of common sense are at the helm? BETTER MOVIES HERE Whatever may be one's personal opinion as to the quality of current motion picture shows, the truth seems apparent that on the whole there has been improvement both in pictures and public demand in recent years. The stunts Charlie Chaplin began doing in the movies twelve years ago were not so good as the ones he does now--and they would not please to- day's audience. Movie-goers are tired of much of the violent slap-stick comedy of an earlier day, but they thoroughly enjoy comedies of a higher degree of art. Scenic and educational films are gener- ally popular, too, although public approval of them is not expressed with the noisy enthus- jasm with which the rough-and-tumble comedy is greeted. : ; One proof of the growing interest in scenic and educational subjects is cited in the fact that manufacturers of projection machines re- _ port more of those machines are sold to non- theatrical exhibitors than to the theatres. Schools, churches, and private organizations are showing this class of movie with great suec- cess. The theatres can do so, too, if they will. EDITORIAL NOTES In spite of the way some look, no auto is more than twenty-five years old. Twenty years ago today those who criticize our young people now were being criticized. Old-fashioned schools were unfair. Even the boy with: a good batting eye had to pass the exams. A new device changes people's noses. Stick- ing them where they don't belong does the same, "You may eat chicken with your fingers," says etiquette hints. You may, but you may need a hatchet. It is stated that 85 per cent. of the income of the average family is spent by women. That shows where the pay envelope finally lands. Bit of Verse EVENSONG The embers of the day are red Beyond the murky hill; ; The kitchen smokes; the bed In the darkling house is spread; The great sky darkens overhead, And the great woods are shrill; So far have I been led, Lord, by Thy will; So far I have followed, Lord, and wondered still. The breeze from the embalmed land Blows sudden towards the shore, And claps my cottage door; I hear the signal, Lord--I understand. The night at Thy command Comes. I will eat and sleep and will not ques- P22 "FTF BLE --_---- Middle School . For Oshawa Collegiate . Middle School results for the Oshawa Collegiate Institute were received today by Mr, J. A.
