ER THURSDAY, MARCH 7, 1929 oy - "EDR THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE The ballots for voting on the election of directors for the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce for the next year are now in the hands of its members, While the system of voting is different, this election is, in some respects, equally as important as that of alder men, school trustees and other municipal represen~ tatives, " The Chamber of Commerce should be a thoroughly representative Oshawa organization, It has a definite work to do in aiding the progress of the city, and {for this reason it requires the support of the city as a whole, and the guidance of the best men who can be found to give their time and ability to its affairs. Tlie new directorate will have some hard problems to face in the coming year, and the very best of judg- nent must be exercised in the sclection of the board. And those who are the members of the Chamber should feel it their responsibility to do their part in making the selestion. It is often the case that a small percentage of citizens vote at municipal clec- tions. It is to be hoped that the same will not be true of the Chamber of Commerce clection, but that every member will make it his duty to return his ballot with his choices marked, so that those who are elected will know that they have the support of the full membership. ONLY THREE MORE DAYS Only three more days remain until the closing of the fund being raised by The Times in aid of the British Miners Fund being raised by the Lord Mayor of London. So far, slightly over $700 has been raised, a sum which must be admitted is very small for a community like Oshawa, Only three more days remain for those who arc interested in bringing relief to those who are in dire need to make their contri- bution through their local fund, For this three day period The Times is hoping for a response exceednig in generosity anything so far accomplished, The greatness of the need is emphas- ized daily in stories coming from the distressed areas, and no persons should now be ignorant of the con- ditions of destitution which exist there. For the sake of the honor of Oshawa, and of those who are waite ing for their fellow-Britishers to save them from hunger and cold, this last appeal is made in the hope that it will bring a generous response, FOOLHARDY FLIGHTS Spriog is still some distance off, but already re- ports are appearing in the press of aviators who are planning the perilous flight across the At- lantic. The warnings of the last two years, dur- ing which many brave men and women have perished in foolhardy attempts to span this ocean by sir, have apparently been wasted, If the deaths of those aviators who started the flight but never finished bad brought with them definite kpowledge of the causes of. failure, so that those who followed could take warning thereby, there might be some reason for com- tinuing the reckless wastage of life. But there is no such knowledge. The world only knows that they started, end never reached their destination. Somewhere in the wastes of the Atlantic they lie srith their aeroplanes, mute viciims of some mis- takes either in equipment or calculation. Aeronautic authorities have ventured the opin- fon that practically all of the fliers who lost their lives did so because their machines were not fit for the trip, The suggestion might be made, thérefore, that no aviators should be allowed to gs art on such a flight, either eastward or west- ward, until their aeroplanes and equipment have undergone the most severe of tests, and have proven beyond peradventure that they have the capacity, the stability and the air-worthiness to * make the journey, .. AUTOMOBILE PRODUCTION In this column a few days ago it was pointed . out that the future for the automobile industry - promjsed even greaier things than had been ac- complished in the past, and it was asserted that the seturation point is far from being reached. That viewpoint is supported by an official re- port from Ottawa giving the number of automo- biles produced in Canada during the month of January. In that month, 21,601 cars were pro- duced in this country. This figure was an increase of 154 per cent. over the fotal of 8,463 cars pro- dueed in January of last year. These figures speak for themselves so loudly that they form a veritable shout. In this year, 1928, everything points to greater production and consumption of automobiles than ever before. It would appear, in fact, that consumption is limited only by the ability of the fadtories to produce the cars, and this is borne out by the long waiting lists which are being compiled, ready for cars as quickly as they ean be turned out. The figures, too, are proof worth noticing of the assertion that saturation is still a long way off, and that each succeeding year is bound to find increases in production in the automobile industry. ARE AUTOS A CURSE? LL -- Mr. Justice Kelly, in addressing a court at which he was presiding at St, Thomas, made the remark that he regarded the automobile as one of the great- est curses that has ever come to this country. He was guilty, of course, not only of gross exag- geration, but of a radical mis-statement of the case. The automobile, in itself, cannot be a curge to any- one, The curse of the automobile is that of the hu- man element, of the man who does not know how to use wisely an instrument of real benefit to hu- manity, " Uniortunately, the human element cannot always be 'controlled, There always will be those who use automobiles for law-breaking purposes, and who drive them so recklessly as to endanger the lives of other people. But to brand the automobile as a curse simp- ly because there are fools and law-breakers who cannot contro! themselves, far less control an auto- mobile, is to do an injustice to. the instrument which is used by them for their crime and lawlessness. If all automobile owners and drivers were imbued with a real sense of their responsibility to their fel. low men, there would be very few accidents, and there would be no need of judges or anyone else having to make remarks derogatory to a machine that has become an essential part of this country's life. EDITORIAL NOTES A couple of days ago there was an official denlal of a revolt in Mexico, It must take news a long time to travel over there, or else something really big must happen before it is recognized as a revolt, There are still some people who believe in the lion-and-lamb theory, but in this country one can never know what to expect in the springtime. An inventor has been perfecting a mechanical nursemaid that calls "mother" when the baby cries. Then father can run in and see what is wrong. -- Hon. J. A. Robb is mot ranked as one of the great orators of parliament, but when he speaks he has usually something well worth saying. A Scottish peer states that he has been able to wea the same kilt for thirty years, and that it looks as fresh as ever. That explains the mystery of why Scotsmen are so partial to kilts, The telephone subscribers in Paris, France, have the privilege of being awakened in the morning by central by leaving a call the night before, But let anyone in this country fry to get central to tell the time, « Other Editors' Comment ~ A PREDICTION (The New Yorker We predict that Mrs, Charles A, Lindbergh will , have a devoted husband, one who will think of her constantly and always remember to send home a postcard, DISTINGUISHED COMPANY (Toledo Blade) Possibly it will cheer many persons to read that Sir Oliver Lodge admits he doesn't understand what Einstein is talking about. THE COAL CRISIS IN BRITAIN (Wickham Steed in the iew of Reviews) We do not believe in nationalization as an ideal solution of any industrial problem, We think it would inevitably entail a growth of hide-bound of- -ficialdom and constant political interference with mat- ters mainly economic, But we would rather see the coal industry nationalized than ruined by further in- eptitude on the part of Dichard coal owners and recalcitrant royalty owners. THE DRUG TRAFFIC : (Truth. (London India, Great Britain and the United States have clean sheets in the matter of the production and manufacture of dangerous drugs. It is not the opium of India, or the drugs of America or British origin, that need cause other countries, anxious to put their house in order, any concern. It is the opium of China and Persia and Turkey and the cocaine of Java, and the narcotics of all the other drug manufacturing countries which are the trouble, and it is a 'task beyond the wit of man at present to control the growth of the poppy in China, Turkey or Persia, FARMERS AND FORESTS (Cochrane Northland Post) At the present time the settler is tied down to restrictive cutting regulations even if he should be able to gt a little more than a for his pulp- wood. Before he will be able to a farm out of his small clearings he will be starved out of house - and home, We are entirely in sympathy with forest conservation, but we want to see it to such territory which is not open for land t. Let the government set apart large tracts of land for this purpose and then decide on what lands shall be open- ed for agricultural development and for the latter keep out any interference from forest tions, since hey are not agricultural lands until forest is cleared off. .

Just all that it does in the body is not known at present, but even as it has the powers to destroy odors and harmful organisms about stables and | § oyt houses, so also can it destroy harmful organisms in the body. One of its uses has been to thicken |] or coagulate the blood in individuals subject to bleeding, or those who have some internal organ or tissue that is bleeding. Its power to heal old ulcers, vari- cose ulcers of the leg, has been de- monstrated during the past three years in many hospitals, You will remember that King George, after the pneumonia and pleurisy had subsided, was very weak, and mea. sures were taken to build up his strength, This included artificial sunlight, and later the use of calcium or lime, After a severe illness of this kind the mineral content of the tissues seems to be low and lime is one of Nature's best mineral builders. How- ever its effect upon the heart muscle make it a most valuable drug just when the heart muscle is about ex- hausted. It appears to have such an affect in the walls of the blood ves sels that they become more relaxed, and permit the blood to pass through them with less resistance. This makes things easier for the heart to do its work, You can thus see then that our old friend, chloride of lime, just a disinfectant in former days, now is recognized as of use in skin ailments, in bleeding of all kinds, in building up the structure of the body in chile dren and adults, and finally as a most efficient heart tonic, I dislike tal' ing about dosage, as 5 grains at a dose is more than enough for some pa- tients and others take as much as 15 grains safely, It is given in water,' milk, or syrup, three times a day af- ter meals, WINDSOR MINES LIMITED No Personal Liability 1,000 acres situated in the famous Rouyn District, Quebec, neighbor. ing ABANA and North of Noranda.

MEDITATION: My church shows me great respect by asking me to do something for it. It does not offer to carry me as a weakling, it honors me with a task. It informs me that I am of consequence and that my service, however humble, is impor- tant and oven necessary. And I find that when I bave done some- thing for my church I love it the more because I have put myself in- to it. More than that I discover and possess a new value in the Christ- tien life. So I must be diligent in service that my love does not grow cold and the comforts of my re- ligion fade from my life, If my ser- be small yet it is needed and therefore impertant honorable. PRAYER: O God hast divid- their gifts dnd ap- pointed unto each his portion of labor, I pray for the willing eid humble heart that I may accept my task with thanksgiving. Through Jesus Christ my Lord, Amen.
