According to figures released recently by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics a record low has been achieved in Canada in connection with deaths from tuberculosis. The report covers 1945 and the death rate shows a reduction per 100,000 of population from 47.9 in 1944 to 45.8 in 1945. This is indeed a good showing and indicates the good work being done by institutions and also the success of the field work whereby incipient cases are discovered by Z-ray tests and remedizl steps taken before the disease becomes chronic. Medicine today strives to be preventive as well as cura- tive. Such organizations as the Oshawa Kiwanis Club are serving an extremely valuable purpose in promotion of both the T.B. survey and the sale of Christmas seals. Over 20,000 people in the city and district availed themselyes of | the opportunity of having this examination made free of | charge. They can show their appreciation by confributing generously to the Christmas Seal appeal. One Storey Construction In view of the need for new accommodation we feel that | the Oshawa City Council is to be commended upon its de- | pision to submit the question of the construction of a new public school and the addition to Ritson Public School to the electors at the forthcoming municipal election. o Other Editors RIBBON FLOOD (Detroit News) The (War) Department pA oft on the wrong foot by cheapening the system through authorizing too many medals, It strikes at the value of all awards when a soldier can wear a line of six ribbons though he has never been within bomber range of the zone of action. AN OLD STUDENT CUSTOM (Brantford Expositor) Several thousand students from Fuad I University, Cairo, are re- ported as parading through the streets shouting, "Down with Im- perialism!" Students are like that, whether in Cairo or Cambridge or Columbia. NEW HIGH IN LOW (St. Catharines Standard) When the mother went to get her baby at the baby clinic yesterday, she found that a new blanket had been stolen from the little one. This might be sald to constitute a new high in low, stealing from a baby. THOSE "PURRING" DIESELS (8t. Thomas Times-Journal) Those who like the sound 'a pur- ring cat makes need to listen for the M.C.R. Diesel freight engines as they roll through the city in the middle of the night. Incidentally the engines have a queer sounding horn and not a whistle like steam engines, NEED STRICT RULES (Ottawa Journal) Some Ontario hotels caught sell- ing beer on a Sunday or after hours have had their license suspended for a month or two months A sharp lesson, but not too drastic, Enforcement of the rules covering the retail sale of beer cannot be too strict. TAKING IT ON THE CHIN (8t, Catharines Standard) Imagine the union power of a man who ean make miilions suffer in the United States, no work, no pay, no schools. "What a travesty in the mind's eye that the wer was fought - to exterminate Hitlerism and Mussolinism and also' crown Stalinism and John L. Lewisism. The blokes who are wearing the white collar certainly take it on the chin these days, what they call the bourgeoisie. Layoff In Windsor . M.

Luke of Oshawa, wound- ed "somewhere in France" on April 2th, 1916, arrived in the city to a great welcome. He was met at the station by a band and the 182nd Buttalion, civic officials and mem- bers of the staff of McLachlan's office where he worked previous to his enlistment, , The Oshawa Board of Trade placed its seal of approval on the project to get the government-- either provincial or federal--to take over Kingston road and make it a province-wide highway. Frank Mason introduced the subject to the board and a motion to the above effect was made by T. B. Mitchell and seconded by J, P. Owens. > At a recruiting meeting at the Town Hall, the chief speakers were the Chief Recruiting Officer, Lt.- | Col. Williams and Lt.-Col. Cock- burn, O.C, of the 182nd Battalion. | Their chief worry was how to raise | 800 men fram the district in order to bring the regiment's overseas strength up to par. Hardy Willlamson, famous Eng- lish tenor, appeared at Martin's Theatre along with Rudolph Polk, violinist. Mr, Williamson, who ap- peared with the Century Opera Company of New York, sang from the stage and then the audience heard reproductions of his voice as recorded by the Edison Company, | A business and social 'meeting | was held at the Christian Church by the members of the Young Peo- There's one phase of the construction of the proposed | new public school which is worthy of consideration, namely, that it is one storey construction. In the last ten years much study has been given to school construction by educa- tionists across the continent. It is particularly suited to small cities and towns where land is not too costly. One oi the factors justifying the one storey school is that maximum use is made available of daylight -- made possible by the large increase in the use of glass. However, the chief factor is the matter of safety. Every classroom and corridor has a separate exit at the ground level, As there are no staircases and no fire escapes the school can be emptied quickly. Pupils are also easily segregated ac- cording to age with separate play areas for the little ones, which will tend to eliminate accidents. : The single storey school has some advantages ir lower school costs. Expensive fireproof construction is not needed while steel is not required to as large an extent and cut stone and other ornamentation are eliminated. There are some adverse factors which include the large amount of land necessary; the great expanse of roof and the extensive use of glass. While these add to the cost they are offset by the absence of fireproof construction which is demanded by law in two and three storey schools. H. N.
