lanned or Greater Oshawa to Feature British Products Purchase of Empire products has ceased to be simply a matter of patriotism. Statistics and common usage have proven that goods made in British Columbja, in Canada or in any other part of the British Empire, have reached "a stage where their purchase has become an integral part of te economic system of the Dominion. Empire Shopping Week, which has been planned here, will. doubt- lessly, add testimony to the grow- ing demand for these products and additional proof off the economy that accompanies such purchase. Retail merchants in Greater Osh- awa, who enter into the spirit of the week will dress their windows exclusively with Empire goods. All Co-Operate Every community in Canada is co-operating to make Empire Shop- ping Week, April 21 to 28, inclu- sive, a huge success. During the week the public will be urged by newspaper advertising, billboard advertising and by window display to buy products made within the Empire, The public will be asked to give preference to Canadian pro- duets and 'second preference to pro- duets of the other countries with- in the British Empire. Acting in close co-operation with the Empire Shopping Week, is A. E, Pollard, His Majesty's trace commissioner of the department of Overseas trade, London, whose headquarters are situated in the Bank of Commerce buildings, Van- couver, Speaking of Empire trade, the other day, Mr, Pollard said, in part: "In recent years there has heen steadily increasing interest in Em- pire trade in Great Britain, a bet- ter acquaintance on the part of the consumer in the Old Country with the products and resources of the overseas portions of the Empire and growing consciousness of the value of Empire trade and the pos- sibilities of its development to the mutual benefit of the Empire as a whole. - Much Accomplished "There are many reasous for this recognition. The British ¥m- pire exhibition held in Louden a few years ago was visited by thou- sands of residents not only o? Great Britain but of the Dominions and colonies, many of the latter mak- ing the trip to England for the first time, and accomplishing much in the way of enlightenment as to the products and industries «f the Enipire generally, Attention in Great Britain has also been focus- sed on Empire trade by reason of the intensive competition prevail- ing today in the world's markets and the reduced purchisiag power, as an aftermath of war, of certain foreign countries, formerly good customers of Great Britain. "The needs of the Dominions, where the purchasing power per capita is high and a high standard of living is enjoyed, afford a mar- ket for British manufactures such as is not to be found "in most for. eign countries. Great Possibilities "In the course of his presidential address at the conference of the Chambers of Commerce of the Em- pire in October last, Lord Kyls- ant, chairman and managing divec- tor of an important group of ship- ping companies, said in part: 'I am profoundly impressed hy the fact that at no time in our history has there been such universal and deep consciousness of the immanse pos- sibilities of the develapment of the resources of the great British com- monwealth of nations. I am cons vinced that the time Is ripe for a definite further advance towards a new era of progress.'

JAILHUSBANDIN DEATH OF MODEL Officials Led to Clues That Upset Suicide Theory in Los Angeles Los Angeles, Cal, April 17.--The mysterious death at Hollywood several months ago of Helen St. Clair. Evans, motion picture extra and model, assumed the aspects of a murder case on Saturday with the finger of suspicion pointing to her husband, Arthur S. Evans, Evans, a young writer, was ar- rested on Friday after the girl's father, Albert T. Daniels, wealthy beauty shop proprietor of New York, who had refused to accept the verdict of the authorities that she had committed suicide by tak- ing poison, had uncovered evid- ence tending to contradict that theory. 'Mrs, Evans was found dead in her apartment last June, The po- lice reported that she had taken poison after-a quarrel with her husband, A coroner's jury reached thh same conclusion, The girl's father then asked for an investigation and urged that Kvans be questioned closely, After the cornoner"s inquest the father of the girl launched a private inquiry which resulted in the arrest of Evans, Two other charges, suspicion of violating the federal narcotic act and suspicion of a statutory of- fense, were filed against Evans, "Women has less power of im- agination than have men," stated a contemporary, Women, for in- stance, simply can't imagine why a husband should make such a fuss at the purchase of a new hat, Men's Good Work Pants 98 c Sentara rerrne . sree Special, 1.Collis & Sons 50-54 King St. W.

After the fifth they were held in cheek by the excellent pitching Morris, picking f Pat Simmons and Ed lead saved them. Every Yankee, Hoyt included, made at least one hit, and Lon Gehrig made three. Hoyt was slap- ped for twelve hits, one of which was a homer by Ken Williams, but some of the twelve were not very robust, and one of them was just a wind-blown pop fly that ordinar- ily would have been an easy out. Durocher, still playing in place of Tony Lazzeri at second base for the Yankees, was charged with one error today and easily might have been charged with two more by a less lenient scorer, but the Kid came up with some great plays, Berln, April 18.--The iron dis- cipline always associated with Prussian school-masters will have to be enforced in future without application of the rod, if the pre- cepts of Herr Becker, Prussian Minister of Education, can be en- forced. Girls should be spared cor- poral punishment, as well as all pupils in their first and second school years, he believes. "Licken and larnen" must part ways, as far as backward and in- attentive youthe be conceraed, also, Becker being opposed to the idea that education can be beaten into children. Modern pedagogy demonstrates clearly that the desired end cannot be obtained by inflicting corporal punishment, and in nearly all cases much harm is done through caus- ing unbearable humiliatio, Becker says.
