Ll 3 OSHAWA, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1922, President Treasurer Editor - i THE Y.M.C.A, MERITS SUPPORT Commencing next Tuesday, Oshawa will be in the throes of a three-day intensive "Y" membership campaign, The "drive" will be conducted by sev- | eral scores of workers, thoroughly organized, who "are determined that their objective of 700 members | shall be achieved, But they desire more than that, i! They. are enthusiastic about the work the Y.M.C.A, !' is doing, and what it will be able to do if given gen. | erous support, They want all young men to realize ;: that the Y.M.C.A. seeks to serve them, The Y.M.C.A, here and everywhere else has its | erities, 'Every institution, organization, or individ- "ual worthy of the name has them, The *'Y" seeks to serve. In doing so it makes mistakes, because after all its leaders, like its critics, are human, But this does not detract from the splendid work the / Young Men's Christian Association is doing throughout the world, Here in Oshawa the ""Y" is somewhat handi- eapped by the smallness of its plant. But ,with . every foot of space in use, and with the splendid { winter's program planned being carried out, the building is large enough to accommodate a great many more men than now enjoy the institution's | privileges, When a canvasser slaps you on the back, and asks your to join, don't turn a deaf ear. Thank him for giving you the opportunity. Sign up, the ""Y', get acquainted wih the members of the| staff, get to know the fine bunch of fellows, many of them newcomers in town, who make the building their rendezvous, and help yourself this winter when helping others.

The Great War stripped Turkey of over half her territory and near- ly half her population, but the influence of Con- stantinople is still felt throughout the Moslem -- world.

Then in Afriea there is Egypt, and practically all the eentral and northern parts of that continent. If England were to face Turkey alone the issue would not be in doubt for an instant, but with a Holy War as a possibiility the outcome might mean almost anything.

F, Cawker, King Street Hast, a presenta- tion was made to Mrs, J. Hillman, one of their prominent workers, who is leaving today for Toronto where she will reside in future. Mrs, Hill- man was the recipient of pieces of, cut glass as a token of their best wishes for happiness in her new home. Mrs. James Gregory made the presentation while Mrs. A. Wright read the following address: Dear Mrs. Hillman: It was with deep regret that we, your associates in the W.M.S. and Ladies' Ald work of King Street Methodist Church learned of your departure from our midst. New members come and go but it is the old members like yourself who have proved themselves ready at all times to do their part and who have made our societies the energetic hodies they are, In presenting you with these small tokens of the esteem which we hold for you, our hope and wish is that your life in your new home and church may he as helpful as we have always found it to he here among us, Signed on behalf of the W.M.S. and L.A.S.

THE ECONOMIC VALUE OF GOOD EOADS Few countries in the world have as complete and | comprehensive a system of railways and canals as | Canada possesses. We have spent hundreds of | millions on these main arteries of commerce but it | is only vecently that we began to pay attention to the thousand and one feeders or what are popularly known as country roads. Improved highways are an economic mneeessity. Bad roads add to the cost of living as well as mak- ing life less worth living.

In| Ather words the consumer in town or city pays move po for the food he conswmes because of bad reads.

On the other hand improved highways mean eas-| fer and cheaper mocess to market; they mean more "'fvéguent interepurse with neighbors, a more regular | _aitendance at schoal for the children and at chureh | je for the family.
