_ THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, MAY 10, 1928 ---------------- LIKELY 0 BUILD |" NIAGARA BRIDGE Bill is Approved When the Third Reading is Given in House Ottawa, "lay 9.--There were two recorded divisions staged in the first hour or so of tomight"s Com- mons session ,the first whole even- ng devoted to the clogged-up reser- voir of private biys. Ther. was still another unrecrrded division when the Niagara Falls 'Memorial Bridge bill finally got its third reading after a rocky passage throughout the session. The first battle of the evening was purely a Quebec show, when J. Francois Pouliot (Liberal, Temis- couata) stood out against the en- tire Liberal party and most of the Conservatives ig opposition to Sir Eugene Fiset's bill to incorporate in Quebec the St. John River Stor- age Company. He moved an amend- ment that the bill be not read a third time, but he referred to 'he Supreme Court for consideration as to its constitutionality. Although he found a score of supporters among Conservatives his amend- ment was snowed under 118 to 21, and the bill finally passed. A -------------- sl' compelled to postpone purchases until they had the cash ready for payment in full. The all-embracing credit system enables people to raise themselves out of the near- pauper class to a position of self-respect that constitutes a national asset.of incalcu- lable worth. One granted credit.is immed- fately conscious that someone else has faith in his honesty; the credit goes not merely to his ability to pay at the time agreed upon 'but to his character which is adjudged in- capable of permittitig him to default. There are all too many characterless people Who take advantage of the confidence tradesmen and merchants are willing to repose in their fellows, © The credit system is chiefly significant of the demonstrated honesty of the great ma- jority of people. That it has strengthened . some characters is probable and that it has offered temptation irresistible to a good many i8 true, but in most cases good char- acter is inherent. Recognition of this by merchants has been a boon to the masses. They are not payment mad.

Economy is worth while because it begins with definite exertions of the 'will, and it grows into a habit of the deepest and truest satisfaction. With every dollar saved a new ptone is added to the structure of character. The spender quickly ceases to enjoy spend- ing, for excess of any kind deadens feeling. But each effort at economy brings its own freshening zest 'for future profits. : with indul- The road to success is paved gences resisted. Workers who each pay-day put away a small part of their earnings live to spend another day for something of lasting good. Small savings accounts, which are welcomed by every bank, have brought within the reach of many the things that make life sweeter and happier. That which makes saving a virtue is the purpose of thrift. Money is made to be used, though not to be squandered. Money that js wisely saved and as wisely spent twice gives pleasure to its possessor. Who can say that money saved for a new automobile, a deserved and much-needed va- cation, new furnishings for the home, a new summer wardrobe or a new watch would have better served its owner sewed up in an old sock? Whether spent at the store or for stocks and bonds, money provides employ- ment for others and prosperity for all, DAYS OF FRIED CHICKEN Many people living in -every community remembers the good old days when fried chicken always marked the advent of the circuit rider. These were the church conferences vacated the coops. days when The good old days when fried chicken greeted all the company, and children wondered whether they would get the drum-stick or the neck. These were the days when friers sold from $1.25 to $2 per dozen, and the cook got a dollar a week and rations--the days when the old man worked for $40 a month, and his promising son clerked in a store "just to learn a business," and never saw a pay en- velope. : Old timers rejoice to recall the days of fried chicken and pumpkin pies--of the spring wagon and the old gray mare--of the church lamps. But not a mother's son of 'em strawberry festival, and kerosene would have these "good old days" back. But it does make a fellow lonesome to talk about the fried chicken, which "Aunt Malinda" used to cook. THE CREDIT SYSTEM This is an age of credit, and because it is the people are more equally sharers in the conveniences and comforts of life here than anywhere else in the world. One commenta- tor avers that people "have gone payment mad." We question if there is any madness about it. Were there the credit business would soon end in disaster. Instead of that it is expanding at a great rate, that the people are better off than they have with result been before. They acquire what they want when they want it and enjoy the use of it while they pay for it. We are told that a vast majority of the wage-earners have mortgaged their incomes for years to come because of the trend of the country to buy luxuries and necessities of life on the installment plan. This should not arouse fears in any breast. Mortgaged incomes mean in most instances that those who have taken on a burden of debt are ac- quiring property and culture, and when they have discharged their credit obligations they will have something. to show for it, which they probably never would have were they EDITORIAL NOTES Ideas are funny little things. They won't work unless you do. Peace is an interval during which nations make resolutions to be chivalrous next time. Don't kill your bore acquaintances. Lend them five each and you won't see them any more. Never slap your wife or make faces at her. Over $17,000,000 alimony is paid yearly in the United States. Now and then one picks up a magazine on the stands these days that makes one cur- jous to see the stuff the editor rejected.

Bit of Verse REVERIE When weary of this world And all its care, The tangled mesh of life, The chains that wear Down all the keenest joys, And bravery, And bind us to the road Of slavery, From which there lies no path The eye can see, Save that alone designed By Fate's decree, I seek the fair-flushed dawn With longing eye, The starlit dome of heav"n When night draws nigh; The feathered tracery Of willow trees, With murmur soft and low Stirred by the breeze; The rolling splendor of The restless sea, And white-winged gulls that soar In ectasy; ; The rock-bound coast, sea-green By constant play Of wind-toss'd seaweed and The far-flung spray; + The pearl-grey clouds, soft tinged With smoky blue, That drift across the sky In transient hue; . The pine trees forming dark Cathedral aisles, The daisy, white and gold, That nods and smiles; The lovely languor of The lotus flowers That float on limpid pools Through dreaming hours; The long, dim line where earth And sky embrace, The night winds mourning in Some lonely place. All these, and more, I seek; And what are they But one great Master Mind Revealed alway In beauty, and the song That Nature sends To all the world, unto Its utmost ends. . Then some may pause, and see The radiant sky, And know a dream of God Is passing by. w--G. Shore -------- -- At a Glance | "Slain man is named bookkeep- er of brewery"--headline.

All you have to do nowadays to limber up that stiff, rusty knee joint is to squeeze a half jnch of miracle working substance from a tube, Then rub it on the offending part for about a quarter of a min- ute or until it soaks through the skin and disappears on its errand of mercy. Then read the evening mnews- papers and go to bed. The chances are that your ms- behaving knee joint will lose its "creak" while you are dreaming about high fences you used to leap when you were a youngster. "And in the morning," says one who has tried the new discovery, "You'll feel so happy that you'll want to jump into your sportiest clothes and walk briskly down the street just to show the neighbors that you are not as old as they think you are." Joint-Ease: They call this won- der working substance, for the rea- son that when ordinary remedies fail to limber up the stiff, inflam- ed rheumatic joint, or reduce the swelling, Joint-Ease succeeds. It's a good name for a good, clean, stainless prescription that in just a few months has proven to a multitude of people that lame, swollen, distorted joints can speed- ily have the kinks taken out of them and work as smoothly as ever. ; But Joint-Ease is for bother- some joints, whether in knee, ankle, hip, shoulder, spine or fin- ger, and for that purpose its sale is immense.

Tonight, with Hon, James D. Chap- lin (Conservative, Lincoln) ready to move tive amendments to it, George W. Spotton (Conservative, North Huron) beat his colleague to Lis feet and moved that the bill be now reported. That precluded ail discussion, and in spite of Mr. Chaplin's submission that he had these amendments ready, Mr Speaker put the issue to the House of whether the vote on third read- ing should nc* be taken. The ayes were 109 and the nays 23. Dr. Edwards's Protest Hon. Dr. John W, Ed "ards (Con- servative Frontenac-Addington) vainly tried to say something on News.

Canada's great natural possessions are being developed and ut# red more and more, and the lonely waterfall furnishes light and employment,commerce and profit to Canadian men and women. Other nations desire the product of our fields, our mines and out factories, and pay for them in gold or in other commodities. The progress of our people is fairly represented by the sum total of their savings; and the statements of our banking institutions reflect the successful efforts of men and women in the teeming cities, as well as those of the solitary ploughboy on the upland. Power, therefore, as expressed by population, by cultivation of resources, by electric energy and that which makes it possible, is the mainspring of business.
