THE FALL FAIR SEASON With the great Canadian National Exhibition now in full swing, the season of the lesser fall fairs is rapidly drawing near, While the C.N.E. by rason of its magnitude attracts the attention of the whole dominion, the smaller fairs, held in the counties and cities of Ontario all fill a highly useful purpose in thei it might be said that feeders or builders of the grea Toronto, for at them are developed th who take their products, whether of farm or fac- tory, to the C.N.E. year after year, There is one vast difference, of course in the two types of fairs and in this respect the small fairs have the advantage. The very magnitude of this C.N.E. makes that fair an impersonal institution. 1t is possible for a visitor to spend a day there, to mingle with the tens of thousands of people, with- out seeing a familiar face. It is not so, however, with the smaller fairs. One of their outstanding fcatufes is that they are more or less community reunions. Neighbours and friends go there to meet and greet each other at this time of the year, The smaller fair has a friendly atmosphere. This is true in an especial sense of the Oshawa Fair which will be held in about two weeks' time. it is a real gathering of the community from South Ontario as a whole, of people who attend it, not altogether because of the splen- did exhibits competitions and entertainment fea- tures but rather because they know that there they will see familiar faces, with renewed acquain- tanceships with old friends, and will be rejuven- aied as in conversing with these, they recall inci- dents and places of other days. This is why the Oshawa Fair has become s0 t annual show at firmly established as a community institution, It is 'why the Oshawa air without question, will be given the support necessary to make it, in its pre- sont year, even bigger and better than ever. A NEW ERA IN RAILROADING rhe iniidal run of the new oil-electric engine "9000", which yesterday made a trip from Monu- ireal to Toronto with the crack International Lim- ited Train, opens up a new era in railroading. For years there have been experiments with oil and electric engines on railway systems, but yester- day's event was important in that it marked the first time that a full passenger train has been hauled by this type of motive power, There is so vast a difference between the oil- electric and the steam type of engines that com- parisons are almost unnecssary. From the stand- point of economy the new type of motive power has a tremendous advantage over the old. The ration of cost of operation, as far as railway en- gines have been able to 'ascertain is about four to one, with the oil-electric engine carrying the low- er figure. : One csn readily understand that when the new type of engines comes into general use, as is likely if the tests of yesterday's run prove entirely satisfactory, it will revolutionize rail transporta- tion costs. To cut this important section of operat. ing cost down to about one-quarter of what it is at present will mean to the Canadian National Railways alone a saving of many millions of dol- lars. The coal bill of the railway will be practic- ally eliminated, and in its place will be a fuel cosr, only about twenty five per cent, of the former total, ' The new engines will bring to railroading, too, a new era of cleanliness. The engineer of the fu- ture wi'l not be the grimy, black-faced mechanic of to-day. He will not have the smoke, soot, cin- ders and dirt of the coal to contend with. He will be more like the driver of a street car, able to wear a collar and tie even when discharging his duties. 5 T¢ the passengers, too, this added comfort and convenience will mean a great deal. Even in the best trains, the annoyance of soot, smoke and dirt is feit particularly in the days of summer. With these eliminated, railway travel will take on an added comfort that has been lacking in the rast. The Canadian National is to be congratulated on pioneering this new and important development in railrcading. It will bring new prestige to Canada's National system and should at the same time help to greatly reduce the operating cost and add many millions «of dollars jo thé railway surplusses of the future, : : r own communities. Indeed the small fairs become the e exhibitors THE WAR OF THE FUTURE That a day is coming when the -nations of the world will no more engage in armed warfare against each other is the fervent hope of all hu- manity, and there are indications in these days that the time when this dream will be realized is gradually coming closer, Yet there will still be a place for war in the world although it will be a war of an entirely different type. This thought was admirably expressed at the Warrior's Day luncheon of the Canadian National Exhibition by Sir William Clark, the British High Commissioner in Canada, who was the speaker for the occasion, Speaking of the British Empire as one which had been founded on the wars of the past, and pointing to what the future course of Empire must be he said:~-- "The incessant war against poverty for the raising of the standard of living, the elimin- ation of famine, the progressive conquest of disease, and the gradual leading of the people until they can assume a large share in the control of their destines; these are the things which can make enduring an Empire found- ed on war." These are objectives which might well be called those of the wars of peace objectivs towards which, ag an important part of the British Empire, Can- ada should constantly press forward. It is just a question as to how much an armed warfare be- tween nations will advance the progress of civiliz- ation, but there is no question as to the great con- tribution which the warfare of peace can make :awards the betterment of conditions for humanity the world over. Poverty disease, famine,--these are blots on the face of our modern civilization and any country can find, in its efforts to wipe these out, a much more noble task than that of sending ily armed warriors against another country. CANADA'S METHODS CRITICISED Canadian governments, both provincial and do- minion, are apt to resent criticisms that they are not doing everything they should do to save the forests of this country for the future, That is why the campaign which has been carried on for years by Frank P. Barnjum, a Nova. Scotia conservation enthusiast, has met with so little response, Yet Canada's methods of forest conservation are not all that can be desired, if one is to believe the criticism: which has been made by Fraser Story, Editor of the Empire Forestry Journal, in an ar- ticle in his magazine. After surveying the Can- adian situation, he writes the following strong indictment of the forestry methods in this country: "The tratment of. old stands and the ne- gleet and abuse of the young growth in spite of the efforts of the forestry service, the ab- gence of cafe in the abstraction of products and the large percentage of waste come-as a shock to European forestry. "Generally speaking, no effort is made to restock cleared areas with profitable species. During logging operations all valuable conifers are removed, while fire nearly always breaks cut in the debris and burns any that remain. "Valuable coniferous forest are succeeded by practically worthless trees which are in nature weeds. What makes matters worse is the tendency to cut down young trees for auick local sale. "The lack of regard for future crops scems to be principally due to thoughtlessness. Can- will no doubt always have a sufficient gatisfy her own needs she is a failing ada supply of soft woods to hut as ap Empire supply source.' This is an indictment which should not lowc, to pass unheeded. If the abuses which Mr. Story has found really exist, it is. the duty of Can- adian governments to have them remedied. There is a grave fear, however, in the minds of many {hat there are too many concerns too anx- be al- people, jous for immediate profits from timber-cutting to give much thought to the future. That is where tho danger lies, and it will become critical in a very [uw years time unless more thought is given to the problem of forest conservation. LEARNING TO SWIM The Toronto board of education has this summer accomplished some splendid work in the teaching of the children to swim, In some of the schools of that city, there are swimming tanks, and the board threw these open, free of charge, so that the children could be taught the art that is becoming more essential every day as one reads in the newspapers of drown- ing tragedies. In all, 10,000 children took advantage of the offer to free use of the swimming tanks. Not all of them went to learn to swim, of course. Some took advan- tage of the opportunity to use the tanks simply for amusement and recreation. But so far this sum- mer 4,000 have definitely learned to swim, a remark- able number in view of the summer counter-attrac- tions. This is a Vv is said 'and written about the necessity of every boy and girl being able to swim, but it is not always casy to carry out that advice. The place is not al- nor are there always instructors ready The and aluable picce of educational work. Much ways available, to guide the young folks in their first strokes. Toronto board of cducation has provided both, in doing so has set an example to the rest of the province that should be followed wherever that is possible. EDITORIAL NOTES Premier King must be having a busy time at Ot- tawa when he has not found time to make a political speech this summer, Winston Churchill is receiving a much better re- ception in Canada than his party did at the hands of the British electors. One grain expert estimates that this year's wheat crop will produce $70,000,000 more in cash than that of last year. Then why the need for pessimism? Drastic action is being taken in connection with combines in Canada, but everyone is satisfied with the work of the combines they use in the Western harvest fields. France is pressing for collection of a debt of over $250,000 which has been owing her by the United States for over 120 years, but it's a million to one that she will have no success. The man who a few weeks ago was praying for cooler weather is now hoping it will remain warn enough so that he will not have to light up the furnace for a few more weeks, That Body of Pours By James W. Barton, M.D. AFRAID OF HEART DISEASE Tell 2 man he has an organic ail- ment of stomach and he takes it bravely enough; also with liver con- ditions, A serious lung condition may take some of the fight out of him, 'But tell him that he has organic disease of the heart, and you just about take all his courage away fgom him, Because he has always believed that as the heart is the main organ, in that it pumps the blood to all parts, anything that interferes with that pumping is likely to result in death. Now although it is unfortunately true that more people die of heart disease than any other single ail- ment, nevertheless an organic heart ailment need not carry you off any more surely or rapidly than ail- ments of stomach, lung, liver, or other organ. Because after all the heart is only tissue like other organs, and is made up of muscle tissue entirély. There can be leaks in the valves, and inflammations of lining and covering of the heart, but they can clear up and leave the heart in con- dition to do its work fairly well, just as in the case of inflammations else- where. The big point however is that if the heart has some trouble and this is found out early, then precautions can be taken to protect it, just as with any other organ. For instance you or your young- ster have a sore throat, tonsilitis. The throat clears up, but you find that you are slow getting back your strength: you get out of breath eas- ily. That means that the tonsilitis, and following it perhaps inflammation of the heart lining, and a weakening of the muscle structure of the heart, have taken away some of the '"re- serve" strength of the heart. Now this is the thought, If after illness the patient is willing to be guided by his doctor as to just how soon he will go to his employment, what rest he is to take, and, most important of all, just how much ex- ercise he is to take, there need be no more fear of heart disease than of other serious ailments of kidney, liver, lungs, and so forth. Enabling the heart. to preserve its reserve strength or helping it to build up again, by this careful oversight, will permit many individuals with organic heart disease to live to a zood age.
