D, Tresidder, representative, MONDAY, JUNE 22nd, 1931 A TWO-FOLD APPEAL The two-fold appeal which has been fssued by the Children's Aid Society ought to find a responsive chord in the hearts of Oshawa people. This society is doing a splendid work in caring for children who have been the victims of misfortune, who have been deprived of the care of parents in a home of their owh, or who have been brought into the world in unfortunate cir- cumstances, and have had to be taken care of at the Children's Shelter. Through no fault of their own, these children are losing many of the things they ought to have dur- ing the tender years of life, and it is to make this up to them, to give them homes and pleasures which other children have, that the society is appealing to the public. There are many couples who, having no children of their own, could have their homes brightened by childish laughter and the patter of little feet by adopting one of the bright little children for whom the society is seeking homes. These children are all in splendid health, have been given an excellent training in good habits, and would be a credit to any foster-parents. They are holding out their hands to the world, pleading to be taken into some home * that is today lacking children, and given £ the love and attention of even foster-par- ents. Surely this is an appeal that will touch many hearts and will bring a ready response. The second phase of the appeal can be even more easily responded to by hundreds of people. These children need a holiday just as much as other, more favored child- ren do. The society asks that when people go off to their summer cottages, alongside some cool lake, for weekend trips, they take one or two of these children with them to give happiness beth to themselves and to . the children. Failing this, it is suggested - that some people might be willing to spon- sor a holiday, for a week or two, for these children, at farm homes, or places where . they could enjoy the pleasure of life in the country, or by some lake shore. This is i not much to ask, and there are many peo- ple in the city who could, with little difficul- ty, respona to this appeal, and help bring added happiness into the lives of the child- ren who, by reason of circumstances which they themselves could not prevent, are suf- ~ fering from the lack of just those things - which are a normal part of the life of the average boy or girl. SUMMER ACCIDENT HAZARDS The record of fatal accidents in Ontario during the year 1930 provides much food for thought. While automobile accidents claimed the largest number of lives, drowa- ing, in proportion to the number of people using boats and canoes, bulked even more largely as a cause of deaths by misadven- ture. There were 524 people killed in On- tario in automobile accidents, and this figure is sufficiently large to cause one to think very seriously of the great wastage of human life as a result of the failure of the human element to function properly be- hind the wheel of an automobile. Drowning, however, claimed 322 lives during the year, and the bulk of these lives were lost during the holiday season, as the result of accidents with canoes and boats. This, too, gives food for thought. No per- son who ventures in a canoe or boat ever anticipates that the trip is to started and never finished save by death. Yet that is what happens in all those cases of drowning in which canoes and boats play a part. Strange to say, young people are involved in the majority of these accidents, perhaps because they take greater risks, and per- haps, because the older people are not so fond of this type of recreation. This leads one fo the conclusion that parents have a duty to perform in helping to prevent ac- cidents of this character, first by allowing only those who are experienced swimmers to Venture on the water in canoes and row- boats, and. secondly, by stern warning to their. children as to the great amount of care which should be exercised. Ontario cannot afford to lose these young lives, and yet all of them could be saved by the exer- cise of ordinary care and common-sense. ESSENTIAL TO PROSPERITY In these days of world-wide business de- 'pression, it would seem that there is no royal road to prosperity. Conditions will eventually adjust themselves, but in the focantime, it is. the duty of every man in of any kind to take the most ener- steps possible towards creating a bet- ge er business spirit, and towards stimulating trade. According to T. R. Enderly, general manager of the Canada Steamship Lines, there is one outstanding essential for bring- ing back of prosperity. Speaking at a meet- ting in Montreal the cther day, he said: "Advertising is the most essential thing that should be continued and carried on in these dif- ficuit times of suspended prosperity--it must go on" - This can be described as one of the basic principles for the successful carrying on of buisness today. When business is harder to get than usaul, the man who goes after it by means of consistent advertising, has a tremendous advantage over the man who decides that, on account of the difficult times, he will suspend his advertising activ- ities. It has been proven beyond question that advertised goods sell more quickly than those whihc are not advertised, and that firms which advertise their pro- ducts and the goods on their shelves secure a larger percentage of the business that is available than those which do not. In other words, the man who does not advertise is ready to lie down and give up the fight for better business, while the man who main- tains and increases his advertising effort reaps the benefit of his determination to go after as much as possible of the business that is available. Business men can quite easily be classified by this standard into two groups, and those who keep up their advertising schedules will invariably be found in the class of men who. are achiev- ing success.

(Copyright 1928) THE EYES OF CHILDREN Part 14 Many eye conditions can be de- tected and corrected at a much les- ser expense than many other phy- sical conditions. This leaves very little excuse for us to neglect the eves. Does it not? When we con- sider tliat memory is a gallery of photographs made possible by the eye and its connection with the brain, it follows that much of our education is made possible through the interpretation of things once seen, If the greater portion of knowledge gained by children 15 through the eyes a very serious han- dicap that contributes to the defec . tive condition' may be found in the effect of these effects upon vision memory and health, : In every school or group a small proportion is very seriously handi- capped by some eye condition at d many of these the health as well as the eyes suffer, Of cours the percentage of these defective cases is largely in excess of those blind or partially so, just as is the percentage of minor cases greatly in excess of the more serious Cases; but when a condition is a condition that is of a growing nature and strain of any nature is a contribu- tory feature to the condition the one may change to the other and s0 a minor casa may soon become a much more serious one in a short time. The lack of efficiency of the child and of the man makes thein elves feel incompetent and «places them in the position to tr) and bluff and when they longer bluff they give in to defeat.

It is important to keep this point in view in any consideration of the causes of the present world- wide depression. The easy and the superficial way to account for the cause of the trouble is to say that the "BIG INTERETS" are respon- sible because they are greedy for profits; that the banks are re- sponsible because they will not re- duce the interest on loans or make it easier to obtain credit; that the raflways are responsible because they will not reduce rates; that the millionaires are responsible hecause they have a lot of money and will not give it away; that the labor unions are responsible hecause they stand for certain hours of labor and certain rates { of pay; the the newspapers are re sponsible because they sometimes print the hard facts instead of the rose-colored pictures of foolish op- timists: that the farmers are re- sponsible because they are slip- shod in their methods and work only six months in the year; that the younger generation is respon. sible because it wants to live high and not work too hard. To accept any one or all of these statements makes it more | difficult to come to grips intelli | gently with the problem of the | day. They only result in throwing the investigator or the wrong | track and to cause a lot of well- | intentioned people 10 accept that | others are saying, which saves them from the hard work of try< ing to think the thing through for themselves, None of these people who have been mentioned is CONSCIOUSLY responsible for the hard times. They would all like to have good times because in good times even the millionaire has a better chance to make more money. The banks make more money in good times than in bad. All the so-call- ed 'Big Interests' make more mon- ey when times are prosperous tan then people are hard up. BEFORE THERE CAN RE A BEGINNING WITH AN INTELLI- GENT CONSIDERATION OF THE BIG PROBLEM OF THE DAY, THE MIND MUST BE CLEARED OF THE MISCONCEPTION THAT ANY GROUP OF CITIZENS IS PURPOSELY AT WORK TRYING TO MAKE TIMES HARD FOR THE OTHER FELLOW IN OR- R THAT THE "FAVORED" PLE MAY MAKE MORE MONEY. ws Pry. Establish Schools Th on Labrador Coast (By The Canadian Press) Montreal, Que., June, 20--The children of Canadian Labrador will shortly go to school like their Southern cousins, The Quebec government has built sev- ern) schoolhouses at various points in Labrador, the first to he established in that part of Canada, and four young men will be sent down as the teaching staff, The enterprise was made possible through assistance of the Quebec Provincial Chapter, Im- perial Order Daughters of the Empire, the Anglican diocese of Quebec and a committee in Que- bee City organized by Miss Hazel Boswell for the purpose. Young women acting as vo'un- teer teachers have been sent to two or three villages on the coast' during past summers, their ex. penses being de by those interested in the work. Until the coming of these workers, the lab- rador children Lad never knowa U. S. Blamed For Failure of World W heat Conference Montreal.--The refusal of the United States to budge from its traditional attitude of refusing to enter international trade agree- ments was responsible for the fail. ure of the recent world wheat con- ference in London, according to Dr. J. Adamkiewicz, recently ap- pointed consul general for Poland in Montreal, who attended the wheat conference as a member of the Polish delegation. "If only we could have prevail- ed upon the United States to come into a scheme to limit exports, everything might have been dif- ferent. What ocurred is of course well known, Mr. McKelvie, chair- man of the U.S, heat Board, got up and said that the United States had made long experiments in try- ing to restrict production. Restric tion of production was the only solution. Other countries "nust follow the lead of the United States, Mr. McKelvie said. Then the Russian delegate got up and said that Russia could not restrict production, since she had to feed of the art of singing, nor had they ever played games, it was reported by the teachers on re- turning to their homes hers. Lcarning songs and playing ball introduced entirely new elenicut; into their lives. School was con- ducted in fishermen's cottages with makeshift equipment. Education will not be limited to children, Through joint ac- ten of the Quebec Department of Education and the Department nf Extra-mural Relations of Mec- Gill University of Montreal, a scheme of adult education will be introduced in fishing centres slong the Labrador coast towards tke end of this month. Philip lindsay, known for his work dur- ing two years he spent on the island of Tristan da Cunha, will zive a series of lantern slide lec- tures for the fisher-folk, these being designed to give the older r.embers of the sparse popula- tion an idea of the Dominion of which their territory forms part. These lectures have been planned on the pedagogical axiom, "pro- ceed from the known. to the un- known, and begin with the St. I. wrence river, proceeding by cusy degrees across Canada to the Pacific coast. Efforts to help the scattered population of Canadian Labra- der have not heen confined to education, however. Discussions have commenced between «he Me- | Cill Department of Extra-mural telations and the Dominion and Provincial governments with a view to organizing the eiderdown industry in that territory. Liqut. Cel. Wilfred Bovey, director of the McGill department and keen- ly Interested in handicraft de- velopment is engaged in further- ing this project and believes the industry might prove a profitable one for the fishermen. Eider ducks are plentiful along the coast, and the down is gathered ficm the nests, the birds not be- ing killed for their plumage. a large population of workers." Russian Goodwill In the opinion of Dr. Adamkie- wicz, the Russian delegation show. ed some goodwill, whether genu- ine or not. '"Thed were willing to consider restricting exports. They sald that the crisis was not due to overproduction but to the capit- alistic system, Propaganda, in fact. They always make propa- ganda. But in the essential matter of restricting exports they were more ready to co-operate." The proposal of Poland, at the London Conference, was the most hopeful, in the opinion of Dr. Ad- amkiewicz, Poland opposed re- striction on wheat areas on the ground that it was impossible to enforce successfully, and ccncen- trated upon the restriction of ex- ports, which is what affects the world market. It was the refusal of the United States to consider a quota system such as Poland had advanced at earlier conferences that made the conference a fail- ure, in the consul-general's view, Tribute to Secretaries Dr. Adamkiewicz paid a high tritute to the arrangements made by the secretaria for the confer- ence. "They were excellent," ha said. "We had all the data we re- quired, all ready. I think it was due to Hon. Howard Ferguson, Canadian High Commissioner in London, who called the confer- ence." The new Canadian Budget does not seriously affect trade with Po- land, Dr. Adamkiewicz thinks, af- ter a preliminary study. He js of the opinion that Canadian exports to Poland could be greatly increas. ed. "What is needed is a treaty of commerce," he said. Items which might be sent to Poland in great- er quantity include: Automobiles, machines, farm machinery, apples, canned foods, fish, etc. Poland could export more to Canada even without special tariff concessions, the Consul-General believes. There should be a large market for ar- tistic goods from Poland, carpets, rugs, girdles and so forth, So keen Is Dr, Adamkiewicz about this idea that he is thinking of ar- ranging an exhibition of Polish art work in Montreal. Dr. Adamkiewicz only recently took up his post in Montreal, hav- ing previously heen stationed at Leipzig, Germany, CADET EXPEDITION COMING TO CANADA British Youths Will Arrive in Quebec Early in August Ottawa, June 22,-- (C,P.)--The committee of the Headmasters' Conference, representing 151 pub lic schools of the British Isles and 27 schools overseas, has approved arrangements for the Imperial cadet expedition to Canada this She Suffered With Painful Backache ' Dodd's Kidney Pills Brought Her Relief "For weeks 1 suffered with terrible pains in my back," writes Bristol St, Hamilton, Ont.

BRITISH CATHOLICS CAN BE LABORITES Cardinal Bourne Elaborates On Recent Papal En- cyclical Edinburgh, Scotland: June 22. -- Cardinal Bourne, Britain's ranking Catholic prelate, declared in an ad- dress here that there is nothing in | the recenteencyclical of Pope Pius | XI which should deter Catholic from becoming members of the Bri- tish Labor Party. The Cardinal upheld the freedom of all Britons to join any political party they wished, but they must guard, 'he said, against "erroneous principles which sometimes affec parties" and each person must "obey his conscience" when it comes in conflict with party principles. Commenting on the declaration of the Pontiff that "no one can be a good Catholic and at the same time a true Socialist," the Cardinal said he hoped that interpreters of the en- cyclical would read it from end to end and that if this were done 1t would be seen nothing the Pope said militates against membership in the Labor Party. The Catholic Church as such, he declared, has never had anything to do with any political party. "Good, sincere Catholics," he said, "have been Conservatives and Liberals and Laborites. "It will be generally admitted that the Conservative Party is closer to and has a more intimate contact' with the Church of England than either of the other two political parties." Hc regretted, he said, that it was necessary to alude to "how very apa- thetic the Church of England often appears in aiding those interests about which the Catholic Church is deeply concerned, "We find," he said, "that very of- ten among our Anglican friends there is a want of sympathy on such moral questions as birth prevention and divorce which astonishes us." The Cardinal called to mind the conflict of the church with the Lib-* eral Party a quarter of a century ago and remarked that the chiirch "owes no gratitude to the Liberal leaders of that day for their atlie tude." Finally referring direct to the Labor Party, he said: "We shall find some persons there- in whose opinions are not in accord with the teachings and principles of the Catholic Church. I suppose there arc some who say that they are So- cialists in the technical sense some- thing no true Catholic can be "Thus here, too, a Catholic 1s obliged to walk warily and, while ac- cepting in tl seneral se the policy of the party to which he be- longs, he must guard carefully against any theory or action which contradicts the teaching of the church or which is contrary to the dictates of his own conscience," nse Is Now Recovering Lindsay ~When Edward Sim- mons, 17, of Irondale, was brougiit into the Ross Memorial Hospital on Wednesd: Sept. 3, 1930, he had a broken back, serious internal injur- ies, nceded an immediate blood transfusion to keep his faintly beat- ing heart from stopping altogether, and was grudgingly conceded one chance in a thousand to live. Now, nearly ten months later, he is out of the hospital and has every chance of a complete recovery. He fell off a wagon drawn by runaway horse at his father's sawmill at Irondale, and was dragged under one of the whecls for some distance before the wheel passed over his body, After the accident complications sct in that were even more serious than the ore iginal injuries. According to a writer, the most dangerous age for men is between forty-five and fifty. But many get married long before that.
