Telephone Adglaide 0107, H. D. Tresidder, representative, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 29th, 1980 A SNOWBALL ROLLING DOWNHILL Like a snowball rolling downhill, Osbawa's movement towards prosperity and industrial growth is gothering in size and momentum with every passing week, In the last few weeks, it has been possible to make severa' announcements of importance regarding new industries for the city. Each of these new industries was welcome, for, although not of great magnitude, they all presented pos- sibilities for growth and development. and they all provided sources of employment for even a few men, * * LJ] Ld Yesterday saw another announcement of this character, telling of the locating in Osh- awa of the fifth new industry since the be- ginning of October, in the securing by C. H, Millard of this city of the manufacturing rights of the Bundy Incubator Company. According to the announcement this means the erection of a new factory building, six- ty feet by twenty-eight, as an addition to Mr. Millard's present premises, and employ- ment of a staff of from ten to fifteen men. Thus we have another field for employment, and even if it is on a small scale, it is very welcome, and The Times hopes that the busi- ness will be so successful that the original plans will very quickly be expanded, » » LJ Another announcement made yesterday was that of the letting of the contract for the Simcoe Street South subway to the Osh- awa firm of Bathe and McLellan. The let- ting of the contract alone was of importance to Oshawa, which has been waiting, some- what impatiently perhaps, for the subway work to start, But the fact-that an Oshawa firm has secured the contract, thus ensuring that the maximums of Oshawa labor will be employed, is a source of much gratification, since the starting of this project will mean placing some fifty or sixty men in employ- ment for some months to come, Thus the snowball of employment prospects is given another turn downhill, and grows in size as it goes along. . LJ » » The statement of W. C. Herring, assistant general manager in charge of sales for the General Motors of Canada, Limited, is also of importance to Oshawa, since it indicates that brighter prospects prevail for employ- ment in the factory of that company. In- creased demand for General Motors cars means increased production, and increased production means more employment, so that Mr, Herring's analysis of the situation, in which he sees more evidence of the develop- ment of buying confidence throughout the Dominion, gives reason to hope that ere long there will be more employment available at the General Motors factory than has been the case for many months, " . LJ Ld Taken singly, these announcements may not be impressive, But taken in conjunction with each other, with the other announce- ments of new industries which have preced- ed them, with the growth of the use of the Oshawa harbor and the certainty that fur- ther work is to be done there, and with the large program of public works in which the federal and provincial funds will be used to relieve the situation, the whole picture be- comes a very hopeful one, There are few cities in Canada today which can point to the success which has been achieved in re- cent weeks in securing new industries and works for Oshawa, and all of these factors combined tend to give rise to the belief that Oshawa has definitely turned the corner and that better and brighter days are not far away, and that those who have suffered from the slump and depression may, before long, be out of their difficulties and engaged in productive and profitable employment, Nor is this altogether confined to Oshawa. In yesterday's issue of The Times, there were other announcements which were of a hopeful character, For instance, & report from Ottawa showed that the two great Canadian railways between them, had giv- en employment to 2,600 men in Eastern Can- ada by the starting of a construction pro- gram on a large scale. Further, Senator Robertson, minister of labor, was credited . with the statement that all men available . for work in. the textile industry have been given employment, and 'that within a very short time there will be a shortage of labor in this industry. : «+ uld go on indefinitely quoting from ae sot 2 ns to show that things are on the mend in Canada. Each of these jtems, by itself, may be a small factor in the general trend towards greater employ- ment, but they are wtraws showing which way the wind is blowing, and it would seem reasonable to suggest that the wind is blow- ing very favorably for the. relief of unem- ployment conditions in this country. A DEFINITE ANSWER " Canada need not expect any tariff prefer: ence for her wheat in the British market, One of the first questions answered by Pre- mier McDonald after the opening' of the British parliament had to do with this mat- ter, and his answer was that the British _ government was not prepared to place any tariff on wheat. And, there being no tariff, there eould be no tariff preference for Can- ada over other wheat-exporting countries, Canada's wheat, then, will have to compete with that of the whole world in the greatest market of the Empire, on even terms so far as tariff is concerned, There may be some other method, of course, by which Britain can help in the marketing of Canadian wheat, but the proposals of Mr. Bennett have not been accepted as it was hoped they might be, and a new starting place has to be found, It is well, however, that the grain growers and exporters of Canada should know where they stand with reference to the British market, so that they can make what- ever plans are possible for ensuring a defi. nite and profitable market for the crops of the western prairies. CANADIAN CHOIR DOES WELL The Brantford choir which went to Great Britain to represent Canada in the great mu- sical competition at Blackpool, England, has done well, In competition with twenty-two other noted choirs, it took fourth place, and was thus given a place in the prize list, This is quite an achievement for a musical organ- ization from this country. It will encourage musical people in Canada to continue their efforts to develop, a taste and a talent for musical expression for the test to which the Brantford choir was subjected was a very severe one. Its officers and members are deserving of the warmest congratulations of their fellow-Canadians, and we might sug- gest that it might be well worth while for this choir to tour Ontario, at least, on its re- turn from England, to give the people of this province an opportunity of enjoying the splendid quality of music which placed it in #0 high a place in competition with the finest choirs of Great Britain, WELCOMED TO WHITBY The appointment of Rev. E. Ralph Adye, of Cobourg, as rector of All Saint's Anglican Church, Whitby, will give much satisfac- tion to the people of that congregation and community, While a comparatively young man, the Rev, Mr, Adye is a gifted preacher, and one whose heart and soul are bound up in the work to which he has been called, During his three years of service in Co- bourg, he won for himself the high regard of people of all denominations in that town and district and particularly among the men of the community. Perhaps the fact that he was an active participant in the war was responsible for the place which he has won in the hearts of his fellow men in Cobourg, and it is only right to say that Cobourg's logs will be Whitby's gain. While it may seem unusual, the election of Mr, Adye as a member of the provincial executive commit- tee of the Canadian Legion was a tribute to his unselfish type of service to those less fortunate than himself among his comrades of the Great War, and the inspiration and experience which he will bring to his new charge at Whitby should be a new asset to that town, EDITORIAL NOTES There still is an urgent need for every citi- zen who can afford it to give a man a job. Deputy Fire Marshal Lewis made a splen- did plea for co-operation in fire-protection, but he also threw out some splendid sugges- tions as to how a man could very profitably be given a job removing fire hazards. It will soon seem like a dull day when Ogh- awa is unable to announce some new indus- try or source of employment for the worke ers. . B. J. McCormick, secretary of the Cham- ber of Commerce, is deserving of the highest praise for the success of his efforts to secure new industries, but in praising him, the foundation work which was done in the last two years by Leon Frazer, his predecessor, should not be forgotten. Oshawa policemen are to be given merit marks and promotion for conspicuous ser- vice. We wonder if that will include the checking up of offenders against the traffic laws, - : In Australia it is quite a common habit to throw eggs at public speakers, They must be a lot cheaper there than they are in Can- ada, Some people are wishing for a real snow- fall so that they can look forward to the coming of Indian Summer, "ev / Other Editor's Comments EXPRESSING THEMSELVES (Exeter Times-Advocate) This news of the young people and their best chums, the older peo- ple, having neighborhood gather- ings where game are played and fun snd & good time generally is in- duiged in wakes the best of reading The people so meeting make their own good times and organize their own activities, Has society been mussing things by doing so much "for the young people' [ustead of leaving healthy minded youth to find its own expressions) activities?

Tell that to the sophisticated youth of the present, Is there a flapper who does not think she knows indefinitely more than her mother, and is there a ecigaretted youth who does not think he can teach his father? While the older may know better, youth holds to its fancied superijority, As for the diplomaed thousands. how dare even the boldest novelist question thelr education? Do not most of them nurse the i1luson that they know all that is to be known? Age will teach them otherwise, but youth has to learn for itself. And when it has learned that its fancied wisdom was largely folly and that its Imagined education was lacking in much of the real thing, it is no onger youth, That is the tragedy of it, Bit of Humour NOW BE GOOD The teacher wanted to know why Jim had absented himself from school for a whole week, "But he's past his fourteenth yoar, ain't he?" sald Jim's mother, "and me and his father think he's had schoolin' enough." 'Nonsense,' sald the teacher, "I did not finish my education till | was eighteen, "Oh," sald Jim's mother, Jim's got brains." TELLING HER Entering a street car, a lady spled a friend with a little hoy. A greeting was exchanged between the women, and then the newcomer said: "Why, Bobby, how grown up you are!

CULOSIS Just wheri we are congratulating ourselves on our victory over tuber- culosis in that it is being slowly but surely conquered, we find that in our irls in the teen age, particularly rom 15 to 20 years of age, tuber- culosis is actually increasing. That the desire to keep thin, to attain a "boyish" figure is one of the causes must be admitted, However there are other girls, and also boys, who are not trying to keep thin and yet are afflicted with this dread ailment Now is there any way by which parents or the patients themselyes can detect the oncoming of tubercu- losis? Drs. J. A. Myers, and L. M, Kern- | kamp, Minneapolis, made a study of 242 girls and boys from teen age to | 28, in whom they found tuberculosis They tried to learn what scemed most responsible for the development of the tuberculosis, what danger sig- nals were flashed out but passed by which, if they had been recognized or heeded, might have saved long periods of invalidism or even deat) Of the entire group 36 percent gave a history of pleurisy, and 2 per cent, a history of hemorrhage or blood streaked sputum This means then that these two danger signals, pleurisy and bleeding are often the first signs or symp toms of tubercul and if the pa tient is treated carly, good results are most likely to be obtained, A history of exposure to the eon- dition in the home, office, factory, 60 per cent, which also shows the im- portance of keeping away from tu- berculosis cases, Another valuable and interesting finding was that excessive energy ex- penditure was the « { CAUSE in 63 per cent, of the cases. This energy expenditure might have been in excessive work, excessive play, not enough sleep because of study or be- cause of theatres and dancing, This is the ituportant time in life when ntributn sleep is necessary - rowing into manhood and womanho Underweight was note in more than hall the case nd history of colds in about one-thi Now these are very common straightforward facts for boys and girls to ponder over, and for parent to learn the lesson of what causes most of the case Ell SS aS Your Savings WILL EARN INTEREST Established back in 1884, the Central Canada has grown steadily until now, with assets of over Eleven Million Dollars, it is one of the oldest and strongest institutions of OSHAWA Branch Office; its kind in the Dominion.
