New York and Chisago a 4 WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1929 WILL THE LESSON BE LEARNED The fast week has been a disastrous ene for mils tions of men and women in Canada and the United Hintes, The unprecedented break in the stoek mars kets, earrying practically all kinds of stoek Issues down to the lowest levels in thelr history, has wiped out fortunes, eleaned out the life's savings of hundred of thousands of men and women who, in the hope of adding to thelr store of money, Invested it in stocks, and found themselves eaught in the down ward rush of the market, sacrificed to its fuetuations, and unable to put forth a finger ta help themselves Even In Oshawa, the losses sustained on the stoek market sinee the break of a week ago have been (i mendous, almost unbelievable, Wherever ane goes, one hears of eltlgens who have lost practically every thing, wha borrowed money wildly in an effort to save what they had already invested, only te have the barrawed money wiped out as well as thelr own, It has been estimated by men wha ave in a position to know something of the loeal stock dealings that $15,000,000 have been lost by Oshawa people on the stoek markets sinee the break started, Tt dees not require a great deal of Imagination to vealige that this Is " terrible lass, terrible for those peaple who have helped to make up the taal It has been a terrible fossbn iff the vlsk of dabbling on the stock exchange without reserve resources to save the situation in time of erisls, and without the necessary finances te take losses without feeling them, The man who Invests all his savings In so uncertain a field as the stock market 1s foalish for his own sake, Possibly he has learned a bitter lesson in the last week, and It is to be hoped that the lesson will really he learned, not only by those who have suffered, but also by these wha have at times felt tempted to take a flutter in stocks, but have refrained from so doing heeause they vealized that they could not afford to stand the loss should a loss result, There is every likelihood that a great many people will In future keep away fram the stock markets, not only beenuse they have lost thelr money and will he financially unable to get inte it, but rather beeuuse they have seen the folly of trying 10 "heat the market" which Is at the mercy of professional operas roars and deelde that thelr money is far better in thely own bank accounts than in that of somebody else, AN IMPORTANT GATHERING The City af Oshawa is ta be highly honored next month when the Associated Hoards of Trade and Chamber of Commeree of Ontario meet at he Hotel Oshawa for the annual convention efathat or wantgation, This Is an important body, almost a welghty body, one might say, for iv represents the ined thought of all the bhaarda of trade and chambers of commerge in the provinee, and these hodies are, as a rule, made up of the outstanding and most progressive and keenly alert eltigony in every community, The convention is an important one, toa, hy reason of the tremendous importance of the subjeots which it will have under consideration, Problems of busi ness, of commerce, of Anance, of transportation, and of many other matters of vital importance to the development and progress of the provinee will be under review, It is not tea waeh to suggest that, for the twa days of the convention, Oshawa will be the meoting-plage of the business parliament of the pros vinee, This will he an eeeasion on whieh Oshawa will be up for inspection, for these keen men of business will be eager to find out the reasons for the vapid pros gross the ity has made, and to put to the test the elvie spirit for which the city has acquired so wens dorful a veputation, Let the convention he given a veal welcome to Oshawa, and let these prominent eltisens of Ontario feel that in coming here, they have chosen a place which is well worthy of the honor conferred wpon it, 18 OSHAWA A MUSICAL CITY? WmE------ Eeonard Richer, the supervisor of wwsie in the public schools of Oshawa, raised an interesting guess ton in his address to the Oshawa Rotary Clb this week when he deetared that, in spite of having heen frequently told that Oshawa was not & wasical eity, he believed this to be quite untrue, In his heief ads dress he said that, to the contrary, he had found Ofhawn 8 city with wueh excellent wusieal talent that was worth developing, and that it woukl well Ry olalm to being really wwsical The difference of opinion on this paint, of course, Hos in ong's interpretation of what eonstitintes 4 wnsis cal citys Mr Richer may feel that beeawse he has discovered somo ohillven with vemwrkable wusioal ability and that Decanse (here ave possibilities of an excellent orehestia at the Collegiate, his assertion is Justified, But it takes wore than 'that to wake a wasieal elty, and at wight be necessary to search rather patiently for same of the other essentials, One is inclined 10 ask the questions, "Do the people of Oshawa give the support to good music that is one 4 A NA of the essentials of a mupieal city 1' or, "Could lass iusieal organizations be brought ta Oshawa te give vegitals and feel assured of an andience sufficient to make their visie worth while 1" Frankly, we must confess (hat these questions will remain unanswered witil the experiment Is tried on i seale sufficient ta provide wm real test, Mr, Richer has at his disposal the means of testing oul at least one of these questions, and we understand that he proposes to hold a children's musleal festival next suring, This will help te decide the question of whether ar not Oshaws Ie a musienl eity, and it 1s to he haped that My, Richer is right, for music Is a wonderful part of education and eolture, Is a souve of that inspiration whieh helps to remove life nhove the level of the dally tasks of toil, and helps to give that measure of veil pleasure that fs essential to the rounding out of a well-halaneed life, I -------- THE PROMISING BEARON OVER The last few weeks have preduced a wonderful evap In Ontario=a crop of promises from the lips of politieal party leaders and elestion candidates, Tos day, us the people go to the polls, they bring to an end, until the next election is ealled, the season of promises, And it fo just us well that that season Is aver, for had the eampalgn lasted much longer, some one would have heen promising to give away the whale pravinelal (treasury, One shudders to think, in faet, of what the result would be were all the promises of the political par tes made good, We are not suggesting that the men who made them are not absolutely sincere in doing so, But between the making of an election promise and the earrying aut of that promise, there 1s & wide gulf, one that very often ean never be bridged, Promises appeal ta a Hstening publie, There wre few people wha object to helng given something for nothing, even if the gift is only made from an eloation platfarm, and never assumes tangible form That will prabably he the fate of many of the pro mises, no matter which party is returned to power hy today's voting, for it is far beyond the realms of human seeomplishment ta put all the promises wade Inte practice and still retaln the provinee as i galing eaneern, A BHAMEFUL, RECORD When stordes are heard of immigrants being dis satisfied with conditions ws they find them en Can adian farths, there is apt to be a feeling that this is due ta the fact that they are not willing te fit in with the agrleultural methods and sustoms In a new country, reported whieh show that there are two sides ta the story, and that alten the farmers are very much to blame for the complaints which are minds One sueh ease came before public notice when an English immigrant hoy sued a farmer for whom he had heen working for years for a sum of $1,132.50 whieh he alaimed was owing to him by the farmer, After heaving the evidenee, Mi Kelly entered judgment for the young $L10B15, this belong the amount whieh he the youth was entitled ta receive, The evidenee, record of which any Canadian farmer might well feel ashamed It showed that the young Englishman had eome to this country when thirteen years old, and had entered the service of this farmer, In the labor which he had given on a 180-aere farm, where there wis na other hired help, he had veeeived three suits of clothes and $885 In cash {nd the only defence that the farmer could put forward was that there had been no contract with the lad te pay him AHY Wages As Mr, Justice Kelly remarked, it is shooking to think that there are men who are so shamefully dis honest as the defendant in this action, Sueh men, no doubt, do exist to some extent, and they are partly responsible for the dissatisfaction of immigrant farm workers with thelr working and lving conditions in this country, For the sake of the good name of Canada, however, It 1s to be hoped that they are very few Ooeaniondlly, however, eases are seven Justies man for helioved however, revealed, i sOven years of IMMIGRATION FIGURES I there fs any satisfaetion at all to he gained from the large influx of immigrants inte Canada during the present your, it is ta be found in the faet that migration from the Beitish Isles and the United States shows a substantial ingrease, while, en the other hand, immigration from non-English speaking countries has dropped considerably, It is not admit ted that inereased immigration is the best thing for Canada under the temporary conditions which exist in this country at the present time, It must be ads mitted that the influx of new settlers is helping to oreate severe problems of unemployment in Toronto and ather large centres to which many of the tmmis grant flock in their seareh for empldyment, and the view has heen widely expressed that the department of immigration is encouraging immigrants wha cans net he eanveniently absorbed inte the productive life of the eountry, There 1s some satisfateion, however, in knowing that British immigration is increasing and that the influx of foreigners is on the downgrade, In the latter respect, however, there is still much room for improvement, Bhitish migrants, in the five months ending August JI, numbered 42.23%, as compared with 40422 in the same period last year, There were, hows over, dA813 fmmigrants from foreign countries, so that even though this represents a substantial redues tion fram the 45640 who came to Canada in the cops responding five months of last year, the total is tea close 10 that of the number of Reitish tmwmigranta 10 he somiortable, EDITORIAL NOTES Football is the game that makes a comfortable seat out of a hardwood plank on a cold autumn day, The letters

to find audiences on which to practise it, It is a good sign that Aristide Reiand is to remain as foreign minister in the new French government, This means that the policies he has started into oper ation for the settlement of the troubles. of Bwrope are likely 10 be continued, i Other Editors' Comments A PEL FOR LIBERALS a ravings) A Liberal paety in England or claewhere Mow fehtive policies for
