Tresidder, representative. Y. President, THURSDAY, JULY 30th, 1931 - BATHING BEACH FASHIONS . Parliament has passed a bill enforcing istringent penalities on those who appear in public in a state of nudity. This bill is _ directed against the Doukhobors of West- ern Canada, certain sects of whom have "made a practice of holding nude parades "in protest against laws which they did not "like. During the discussion of this measure : in' members of the house raised the estion of the near-nudity at the bathing 1 hes on the rivers and lakes and on the : hore and contended that some of the hions prevailing there today approach 180 nearly to a condition of nudity that they 'might come under the ban of the new law. The truth of these assertions can be veri- ; almost any week-end at the Oshawa 5 h. One does not have to be prudish to "feel something akin to horror at the scanty "mature of many of the costumes to be seen ere. On seeing some of them, one feels ike recalling the lines in Kipling's Gunga in: i "The uniform he wore, it wasn't much before, 5 And little less than half of that be'ind." Fashions do change, of course, and the Sways of today are not the ways of yester- 'day. But, from the standpoint of common , there is a great meed for stricter "regulations regarding what does or does constitute a bathing suit. Certainly one hardly class the few strips of materi- which some bathers wear in that cate- , and many of them go just as far in e direction of nudity as they can go with- causing a scene. One has no desire to ere with the claims of the young peo- of today for greater freedom in mat- of dress, or undress--but there is a fo everything, and the limit has been than reached in regard fo bathing beach fashions. It is about. time the law lepped in and compelled a greater show of modesty in the display of the human body uch as is being made under the camouflage pf present-day bathing suits.

To find proof of the first statement re- ferred to it is not necessary to go outside of Oshawa. There are many cases in this city .in which veterans and their families will vouch for the fact that they have re- ceived "cruelly unfair" treatment from 'those charged with the administration of the pension Jaws of this country, and have been compelled to- undergo suffering and hardship because these officials did not in- ,terpret the law in the spirit which was in- tended by parliament. Men in touch with the situation are agreed that further amendments to the act should not be necessary. Unfortunately, it was not possible to write down in black and white, the spirit of parliament in passing the 1930 amendments, but the spirit shown then was that parliament was desirous that every effort be made to expedite the hear- ing of pension claims, and to give the ap- plicant a generous measure of justice and the full benefit of any reasonable doubt as to the validity of his claim. To interpret that spirit into action is the difficulty which has arisen today, and it is in an effort to secure that generous interpretation that Major Roper has issued his message. Be- cause of the large and influential body for which Major Roper speaks, his message should be heeded, and one can confidently look for an early improvement in the con- ditions which have arisen, and which have called forth so much criticism.

Other Editor's Comments CANADIAN CULTURE (Dublin, Irish Times) Of all the Dominions Canada is, perhaps, the most unswervingly loyal to the British Crown. Supetficially, however, the Canadian is akin rather to the United States type than to the British type; his apPearance recalls New York rather than Loe don, and the speech of Toronto smacks spectrally of Pittsburgh. et, when we consider the enormous tendency towards "Americanization" that they have inspired in other parts of the world, and how great- ly their influence must be intensified in a country which, like Canada, is in geographical contact with the United States, a reason for Canada's outlook becomes obtrusive. Will the new Canadian tariffs on foreign goods, by their restrictions on the import of United States goods, gradually cause 2 new and more distinctive type to emerge? ' A GOOD SIGN : (Peterborough Examiner) , Amidst all the gloomy news that has been com- ing out of the West recently a despatch recently from Winnipeg came as a flash of sunshine after a dreary day. It was to the effect that syndicate of United States farmers from Minnesota, North Dakota and Wisconsin had purchased 30,000 acres of farm land in the Lakeview district, 75 miles northwest of Winnipeg, and was negotiating for an- other similar sized tract, These agriculturists from below the boundary propose tp carry on mixed farming on a large scale in Manitoba and it is announced that the vanguard of this welcome army of new citizens will shortly arrive in the Lakeview district. is biti sett] t scheme in a when the outlook is regarded by Western farmers generally as most disturbing should do much to improve the morale of the district affected. The Americans: interested in the plan are' ex- perienced farmers who know what they are doing and their willingness to invest their money at this time in Manitoba fatm lands is proof positive of their absolute confidence in the future of that part of Canada and in the certainty that the present depression will not be of long duration.

Most countries are now suffer- ing from bad trade, and the posi- tion has got to be faced. No pur- uid be served by trying to er\the causes of the present pression--it is more import- of try to ferret out ways and of reviving industry and reat Britain, for example, it been found that many firms are suffering badly just because they are waiting for something to turn up, without themselves taking steps to increase their turn-over. We have a large number of unemployed in this country, just as in the U.S.A, you have many unfortunate mil- lions who cannot find work. Yet, as recent balance sheets prove, those companies which have con- tinued to advertise, and in many cases increased their advertising appropriations, have done splendid business as <a result, whilst their less go-ahead competitors are sim- ply languishing. This appreciation of the power and value of advertis- ing has enabled many concerns to keep their product prominently be- fore the public; it has extended their home demand; it has increased the number of workers employed m producing it, and, moreover, it has in a number of cases extended export demand to a surprising ex- ten because of the cheapening of prices achieved through more ef- ficient production. "All this just means tbat so far as you, the ordinary citizen or householder are concerned, neces- sities like soap, food, wearing ap- parel, boots, etc, can be bought at lower prices because the fewer the firms that take advantage of ad- vertising, the more they are able to sell and the cheaper it is for each individual purchaser, All of which goes to show that industrial pros- derity based as it is upon the ever widening possibilities of consump- tion must make use of advertising as its chief salesman among large populations. When the product achieves greater popularity and de- mand as a result of advertising, you are able to produce more of it at a lower price and you are also en- abled to employ many more work- ers in doing so and to pay them better. Then you find it possible to compete in the markets of the world by offering good quality at the most competitive prices.

General tiredness and eye fatigue then are among the first symptoms to be noticed. Let me quote here a very interesting and informative comment on this serious condition found in a recent scienti- fic article by Floyd W. Pagsons, which appeared in the Saturday Evening Post. Mr. Parsons, among other things says: "There is no surer cause of fatigue in industry than improper illuminati The tendency of every workman, is to turn his eyes to- ward any bright object, so it follows that when there is an unusually strong reflection of light in the field of vision this causes a continual draw on the muscular action. In many cases a condition of bad glare in a plant has alone caused a de- crease in efficiency of as much as 25 per gent. The first rule in office or factory illumination is to elimin- ate all high lights. The whole visu- al field should be as uniformly il- luminated as possible.
