"PAGE TWELVE THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, SA SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1929 PUA k:P AE WHITE MAN'S FOOD RUINING TEETH OF LABRADOR. ESKINO Primitive Eskimo At Present time has Most Perfect Teeth in World "Sydney, N.S, Sept. 26--"The pri- mitiye Po o of Baffin's Land has the most perfect teeth in the world, t foods of civilization are rapid- destroying the teeth of the Lab- ador imo, who comes "into con- stant contact with white traders who Ml him the white man's goods," said be Adelbert W. Fernald, of Harvard ental School, who has been up with the MacMillan party making a speci- 31 study of these and other matters. + Dr. Fernald was the busiest man ith the party, making no fewer than ixty sets of false tecth for natives t various parts of the coast, besides nnumerable extractions and fillings. Focaine and other pain dcadening gencies were used, as they would de down south, but the Eskimo shows hore indifference to tortures of the entist's chair than does his average hite brother, members of the ex- Fernald Jedition who assisted Dr, estify. At Hopedale, particularly, a con- stant stream of natives filed in and ut of Dr. Fernald's temporary of- fee, leaving behind them a myriad of ches and pains in the form of a jttle heap of defective teeth. So reat was the pressurc of business here that various members of the crew were pressed info service to mid the dentist with the simpler de- Jails of the operations. Some na- ives were found with no teeth at all nd for these sets of grinders were oulded and fitted on the spot. AYS NORTH IS REAL ISHERMAN"S PARADISE Sydney, N.S. Sept. 28.--A fisher- nan's paradise, the exact counterpart bi what the streams of the United tates must have been when the ilgrims landed at Plymouth, was escribed by Dr. W. C. Kendall, hthyologist to the MacMillan ex- edition, and reputed the greatest sh expert in the United States. Salmon were fairly plentiful, but e whole coast of Labrador and Baf- n's Land was swarming with beau- tiful big sea trout he found. Dr. Kendall told of a shallow pool GENUINE RADIOTRONS AY ALL DEALERS &y 227 Westinonovst function inevery circuit that's why set builders within sight of the coast on one of the innumerable streams where for hours he fished under the movie camera of the engineer in the hope of filming the capture of a big one, He ahd come equipped only with a light rod and line and, in spite of skilful play, the fish carried off five of his Pest flies and leaders, and in some cases parts of the lines. They were all too big for the tackle. Nothing daunted, he returned to the ship for stouter apparatus, with which he landed a number of good fish, some of them seven or eight pounds in weight. There were lots more in the place, but it is not the policy of the MacMillan party to fish for mére than required for food and specimens. Some of these big fellows stowed away in brime pickle in the Bowdoin's hold and will grace the specimen departments of American colleges for many years to come, In a netset near the ship on one occa- sion Dr, Kendall took a trout that weighed over ten pounds, and this also has been preserved. PARTY POLICIES PROMISE BETTER DAYS FOR FARMER Cheaper Hydro, More Good Roads, and Other Aids to Agriculture are By Frank Flaherty Canadian Press Staff Writer Toronto, Ont., Sept. 28.--Not since 1919 when discontent among the farmers led the rural sections of the province to assert their political strength and put Ontario's first and only farmer government in power have agricultural problems bulked as large in an election as they do in the present contest for the provin- cial elections Oct. 30. Conservatives and Liberals are vy- ing with cach other and with the United Farmer and Progressive groups in offering attractions to the rural vote, Cheaper hydro, more money for rural roads, expansion of the department of agriculture, exten- sion of rural educational facilities and reduction of taxation are a few of the planks in party platforms especi- ally attractive to farmers, In 1923 when Premier Ferguson first came into power the dominant issue was the financial record of the Drury administration. Mr, Ferguson attacked that government for extra- vagance and promised economical, business like administration, : ! Lower Hydro Rates | With regard to rural hydro Pre- mier Ferguson promises a reduction jin the service charge based on the !unit of the 100-acre farm from $4.55 I per month to $2.50. He also pro- noses legislation'to permit farmers to barrow money from the government to finance the installation of hydro equipment. ~ Mr, Sinclair the Liberal leader, says this does not go far enough and describes the govern- ment proposals as "cheap generosity." The farmers, he says, are perfectly solvent and the government offer of loans is superfluous as there are lots of places where they can borrow money, Following out their Views express- ed in the legislature, the Progressives | favor a flat rate to rural hydro users which will nearly equalize the cost of hydro to rural and urban dwell ers. The snag on which all propos- als of cheap rural hydro rates strike is the fundamental hydro principle that each municipality using the ser- vice should pay its own way.

"In fact, the first three or four months are usually pretty aw- ful; but the British boys around Peterboro are all well satisfied with conditions and opportunities offered on Canadian farms." SURGERY TRIUMPHS IN DIFFICULT CASE Arm Saved by Series of Deli- cate operations Sydney, N.S, Sept. 28.--The tri- umph of modern surgery over a se- vere gunshot wound aggravated by days and nights of unskilled treat- ment was witnessed by Dr. MacMil- lan on his present trip north.' Last year it will be recalled, an Eskimo boy was brought 130 miles to the Bowdoin for treatment. A gun- shot charge had gone through his upper arm inflicting a wound that looked as if amputation at the shoul- der would be the only remedy. However, Dr. Earl K. Langford, noted Chicago specialist who wag with the party, performed a series of delicate operations, by which the arm was first grown to the body, then cut clear and finished off with skin grafting from other parts of the y. Dr. MacMillan received enthusias- tic reports of the progress of this youth, who would have been semi- helpless in that country with one arm gone. Although the arm is slightly crooked, due to contraction of tendons and ligaments unavoid- able in such a wound, he has over- come the handicap to such an extent that he can handle a kyack, row 2 boat, reengage in hunting or fishing on practically equal terms with the other men of his tribe.

The problem before all parties is to find some way of over- coming this and of plac hydro within the reach of the average farmer. . Problem of Roads Next to hydro perhaps the vital rural problem is that of roads, Premier Ferguson the main system of trunk provincial highways has been practically completed and the province 15 now prepared to give more attention to township and county roads, He forecasts increased grants to municipalities and looks forward to the time when every resi- dent of the province will have a good serviceable yoad to his farm. The Liberal idea is that there should be mora local autonomy in the matter of road building. Instead of increasing grants fo municipali ties Mr. Sinclair would relieve them entirely of their share of the cost of provincial highways within their borders. At present the province collects 20 per cent of the: cost of construction and maintenance of provincial roads from the municipali- ties. The Liberal leader argues these roads benefit the province as a whole and the cost should be borne by the province as a whole. The Progressives share the same iew as the Liberals but would like sec both relief from provincial highway costs and increased grants, Matters of Education ; Premier Ferguson says in the edu- cational field rural 'Ontario is en- titled to better training facilities for its children. The policy of the gov- ernment is not to impose any obli- But where the people wish to extend the courses in rural schools to take in most "avs V t 0 1a part of the ordinary high school work the will assist them. Premier Ferguson, who is also minister of education, has for some time had in mind certain educational changes involving a transfer, where the people wish it, of university work to the high schools and of high school work to the primary schools as well as the establishment. of township school boards.

He says the people are the best judges of their needs and their abili- ty to pay and there has been too much centralization of authority in little consideration for local opinion, The Progressives are generally op- posed to the scheme for township school boards though some of them feel it might be adopted later on 4f public opinion develops in its favor, i But they are very jealous of the and look. with suspicion scheme to centralize control, Marketing of Products In connection with the marketing | of agricultural products - Premier Ferguson points to the establishment of a trade commissioner in London England, to promote the sale of Oh. tario fruits.
