D, Tresidder, repre. sentative, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 235, 1928 EES COLLEGIATE EVENING CLASSES The evening school classes of the Oshawa Collegiate Institute are now under way, Ac- cording to reports over 400 citizens, old and young, had already enrolled and more are joining every day. This must be a source of satisfaction to the Board of Education and the Advisory Vocational Committee who have made possible this "second chance for an education" for those who have missed the earlier opportunity, Among the courses offered we note with particular pleasure Nursing and English and Arithmetic, Perhaps it is not too much to hope that these classes will in time he the most largely attended, Every girl who may someday have the care of a house on her hands should take a course in Nursing, Not only will it be of invaluable assistance to the housewife, It is a real asset to a young lady in many positions today, Many young women at present occupying positions would be much more valuable to their employers if they had a knowledge of the elementary prin. ciples of nursing and the rendering of first aid, All employers recognize tha value of health protection for their employees, and the law requires provision for the immediate treatment of accidents, So it is not too much to say that an employee with a knowledge of elementary nursing and first aid treatment is more indispensable than one without, As for English and Arithmetic, these are the sine qua non of any education, Many an employee could increase his value to his em. ployer many times over if he had mastered the underlying principles of good English and simple, everyday Arithmetic. We under- stand that this is what the course in the Oshawa Collegiate Institute evening class offers. We are pleased to express our satisfaction with the attendance at the evening classes and venture the opinion that when citizens realize more fully the true value of the classes the attendance will be doubled, TOLL SPEEDWAYS The British parliament is the latest islative body to consider seriously the pri- vately-built toll road as a solution of the problem created by congested highways for bidding high speed. Lord Asquith has recommended that a to construct motor toll roads between Lon. don and several industrial cities, The plan contemplates two parallel roadways without speed limits or grade crossings, They would be built by private capital which would look for its dividens from tolls. Generally speaking, there is probably a greater need for such roads in England than in Canada or the United States, Here dis- tances are greater and congestion is gener- ally less. But bringing back the toll for the sole use of high speed traffic is contemplated in the United States and here, New Jersey has gone so far as to pass a law authorizing construction of such a highway, later repealing it because of de- fects discovered in it after passage, Highway authorities are agreed, generally, that some day separate highways for slow and high-speed traffic will be indispensable if the automobile is to continue as an im- portant factor in the transportation field, TREES In the Garden of Eden, planted by God, There are goodly trees in the springing sod, Trees of beauty and height and grace To stand in splendor before His face, Apple and hickory, ash and pear, Oak and beech and the tulip rare; Trees for the birds to build and sing, And the lilac tree for a joy in spring, Trees to turn at the frosty call, And carpet the ground for their Lord's foot fall; Trees for fruitage and fire and shade, Trees for the cunning builder's trade; Wood for the bow, the spear and the flail, The keel and the mast of the daring sail; He made them of every grain and girth For the use of man in the Garden of Earth, Then lest the soul should not lift her eyes From the gift to the Giver of Paradise, On the crown of a hill for all to see.

F, C, A} derdice will be pyoned by the Lib- eral Party led Sir Richard Squires. Sir Richard Squires was Prime Minister from 1919 to 1923 when as a result of reported irregularities in several departments and alleged mismanagement of public funds he was forced to resign on the initiat- ive taken by his Minister of Justice, the late Hon, W, R, Warren and supported by several of his colleag- ues, An Enquiry by Royal Commis- sion was undertaken by T., Hollm Walker, K. C., and in his report he found that the charges made against the Prime Minister of mis- appropriating funds from the De- partment of the Liquor Control and of receiving moneys from the Brit- ish Empire Steel Corporation were proven, When brought to trial be- fore the Supreme Court the Grand Jury found no bill, Later Sir Rich- ard Squires was summoned for hav- ing failed to pay income tax, con- victed, and fined. oS In the present campaign the Un- ited Newfoundland Party headed by the Prime Minister, Hon. F, C. Alderdice makes the keeping out of power of Sir Richard Squires the one issue in his manifesto, a sum- mary of which follows: The leader of the United New- toundland Party stresses the moral fssue in his opening paragraphs, and the importance of preventing the destinies of Newfoundland be- ing controlled by men already prove en unworthy of trust, With reference to the Fisheries the Manifesto promises removal of duty on lines, twines, dory oars, and other fishery accessories, It declares that "no government con- trol (of fish markets) will be. at. tempted, but that the encourage- ment of fresh fish trade, the utiliz. ation of fishery by-products and the .enlistment of scientific re- search will be employed to advance this trade, ls The whole question of bait freez- ing establishments will be thor oughly explored with a view to ex- tension of this facility, Natural resources of Newfound- land and Labrador will be conser- ve to the Colony, The practice of leasing timber limits for a nominal sum will be discontinued and the leases will be gold at the full mar ket price, In regard to limits held, whieh have paid the rentals but not cum plied with the conditions laid down, the law will be enforced without descrimination, While giving every reasonable encouragement to new enterprises, no concessions that will involve sac- rifices of the Colony's interests or the revenue will be countenanced. Mining laws will be revised to prevent wholesale claim staking of holding claims without develop- ing them, Agriculture will be encouraged by helping the local former to sel his product, The Customs tariff will be re- vised so as to make the burden hear less heavily on the working man and his family, The co-operation of women in public lite will be sought, To provide more employment by introducing further industrial de- velopment will be the concern of the United Newfoundland Party. A scheme that must prove of very great henefit to the people of isolated Outports is contemplated by the extension of nursing service under fully qualified nurses. This is one of the finest points outlined in the whole Manifesto, Old Age pensions are to be ex- tended to mreet the needs of many applicants, The extension of roads fs to be continued, as they have already proved their value in the berry industry and in transpor: of bait and codfish, The United Newfoundland Patty will continue the system of railway coptrol mow in operation, with freedom from political interference, Continued efforts towards im- provement of the Public Service will be maintained, 80 far the manifesto of the lead er of the Opposition has not been announced. With Sir Richard Squir- es in the present campaiga are Dr, A. Campbell, Minister of Agricul- ture in his former administration; W. Cave who was his Minister of Finance; Sir W. F. Coaker who was Minister of Fischeries and is the recognized leader of the Fisher- men's Protective Unjon; Dr. AS Barnes who was Minister of Educa- tion, and several others of the rank and file of his y. Hon. F. C. Alderdice was leader of the Government fn the Legisia- tive Council in the last session of the Monroe Administration, and like his predecesosr Hop. W. 8S. Monroe, this is his first venture in 8 political contest.

The present elections have a particular interest because of the Liberals Under Leadership of {fact that the women will for the first time exercise the franchise ex- tened to them by the late Govera- ment, and because the new Redis- tribution Act comes into force. By this the number of members of the House of Assembly bas been increased from thirty-six to forty, several mew districts have been) created, and all of them, with the exception of the two: city comstitu- encles of St. John's and Harbour Main District, will be represented by ome member only. St. John's East, St. John's West, and Harbour Main alone have two representa. tives.

Den- nen, rector of the Old North Church, the Canadian Club of Bos- ton, the Women's Auxiliary to the Canadian Club of Boston and their friends, held a special service in *he historic edifice Sunday, Oct, 14. A program prepared *y the ex- cutive committee, in addition to listing the order of service, in- formed the club members of the historic importance of the place in which they gathered, The follow~ ing is taken from it: "The first sermon preached in this church, December 20, 1728, was on the text; "Mine House £hill be called a House of Prayer for all people," 'In the spirit of that text the Rector welcomes the Canadian Club of Boston to Christ Church, the Old North of Paul Revere fame, "Christ Church stands today the oldest place of public assembly in Boston. Here, April 18, 1776, Rob- ert Newman, sexton, displayed the lanterns that flashed from the tower a message that sent Paw) Revere in haste to Lexington to give warning that the Regulars were coming, "From the tower of this Church General Gage watched the battle of Bunker Hill, June 17, 1775.

TRYPARSOMIDE I EFFECTIVE IN HOSPITAL Dr, W. J. Robinson, London, Tells of Success in Treating Paretics Toronto, Oct. 36.--~An authorita- tive champion of tryparsamide treatment for paresis has come for- ward in the person of Dr. W, J. Robinson, medical superintendent of the Ontario Hospital at London, Whitby Hospital, it seems, is not the institution where the Rock Foundation's discovery has been given a try-out over a four-year period, with most suc- cessful results. The percentage of patients discharged at London was 48 per cent, as compared with a percentage of 10 per cent, between 1909 and 1923. Hon, Forbes Godfrey, although still confined to his home, recover- ing from influenza, made public yesterday, through his office at the Parliament Buildings, a letter from Dr, Robinson, dated October 18, in which {it is stated that "at pres- ent almost half our paretics are at home earning their living, and many of the others are working about the institution in good health, although their mental condition will not permit them to be dis- charged." Dr, Robinson writes: 'I noticed by the Toronto papers this morning that there is a tendency among cer- tain members of the profession to discredit the great improvement in the modern treatment of paresis by tryparsamide, 1 had the curiosity to look through the annual reports of this institution for upwards of 20 years, and I find that from 1909 to 1923, inchisive, we admitted 135 cases of paresis, We discharged 14, and 105 died. In other words, the rate of discharges was ahout 10 per cent, and the rate of deaths slighlty over 78 per cent, "From the four years, 1824 to 1927, under the use of diarsonal and tryparsamide---chiefly trypar- samide--we admitted 69 cases of paresis, We had 33 discharges and 31 deaths, The percentage in this 0d Oshawa, Ont.
