THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE Published by Times-Gazette Publishers Limited, 57 Simcoe St. S., Oshawa, Ont, Page 6 Saturday, October 27, 1956 Oshawa Gives Welcome To Ontario Regiment Reunion This weekend the city of Oshawa is the host city for the annual réunion of former members of the Ontario Regi- ment. This event, sponsored by the On- tario Regiment Association provides the annual opportunity for old comrades who served with the regiment, or who enlisted in the regiment in the two world wars of the present century, to gather together and enjoy the spirit of comradeship which they knew so well in the days of war. For many, it is the only occasion when they can meet their old comrades and renew the war- time friendships. This year, however, there is a special significance in the reunion, on Sunday afternoon, with past and present mem- bers of the regiment in attendance, a plaque will be unveiled in the Oshawa Armories in memory of the men of the Ontario Regiement who paid the su- preme sacrifice in the two world wars. This unveiling ceremony will be a solemn occasion. The list of those to be commemorated shows the extent of the sacrifices made by men of the regiment, and of the stern battles in which they were engaged in defence of freedom. The names of 90 former Ontario Regi- ment soldiers who died in the second world war wil, appear on the memorial plaque. Oshawa welcomes back to this com- munity those who served with the Ontario Regiment and who will be here for the reunion. While there are many Ontario Regiment veterans still living in the city, there will be a special hand of greeting for those who come from a distance. We hope that their sojourn in Oshawa will be a pleasant one, and that they will carry away with them new inspiration from the stirring events of this weekend. To the Ontario Regiment Associa- tion, we offer congratulations on its effort to memorialize the dead com- rades of their beloved regiment. They have every reason to be proud of the achievements of the unit to which they belonged, and in remembering the hon- ored dead, they will pledge themselves anew to live for the things for which their comrades fought and died. Charity And Community Chest "Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass and a tinkling cymbal. "And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. -- 1 Corinthians vv 1and 2." These words of St. Paul come to us with a very special significance in these days when Oshawa in engaged in its all-out effort to raise $130,000 for the Greater Oshawa Community Chest. The Community Chest is in every sense a practical expression of that kind of charity of which the apostle wrote in his letter to the Corinthians, It is an expression of brotherly love, which is at the root of the Christian faith. In thé Commnity Chest, we are called upon to give of our substance so that this community 'may be a vessel filled wih the spirit of charity. We are asked to give in a sacrificial way so that the services on which so many people de- pend for their well-being, mental, spirit- ual and physical, can be continued by the 17 agencies which are participants in the Chest. If our people are not imbued with the spirit of charity to the extent that they will all do their share in providing the $130,000 required for these purposes, then we are, in the words of the apostle, as nothing. This is a direct challenge to the people of this community, they show by their contributions that the true spirit of charity, of brotherly love does dwell and live in our midst. The extent to which this spirit lives in the mind and heart of each individual depends, not on the amount of the contribution made, but on the spirit in which it is given. Contributions to the Community Chest should be made willingly, and not as a grudging acceptance of a duty and responsibility. Only in this way can the true spirit of Community Chest be preserved, so that the giver may re- ceive more joy from his donation than those who are its beneficiaries. Seeking Teaching Recruits In an effort to secure a larger number of recruits for the teaching profession, a new organization has been establish- ed. Its purpose is to awaken the interest of students of today in selecting sec- ondary school teaching as a profession- al career. This new organization has a three- fold sponsorship. It is a creation of the joint efforts of .the Ontario School Trustees' Council, the Association of Ontario Secondary School Superintend- ents and the Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation. It is actively con- cerned in the problem of providing adequate and well-trained staffs for the secondary schools of the province in the years to come. Within the next 10 years, secondary school enrolment, it is estimated, will increase by 85 per cent. Now, therefore, is the time to plan for securing the teachers who will be required to give them instruction. As part of its campaign, the Teacher tecriiitment and Service Council has produced an excellent booklet to be distributed to pupils in Grades 12 and 3 of the Ontario secondary schools. The booklet is an excellent and inform- Bible Thoughts It is easy to coast down hill, but look out for the ravine, Where will you land?

"If you like to work with others, help others, accept responsibility, read and study. "If you have patience and understand- ing, a good sense of humor, good physical and mental health. "If you can discipline yourself and accept criticism. "If you believe that teaching is import- ant." These qualifications set the ideal for those who would enter the secondary school teaching profession. It is not expected that all will measure up to its full requirements. But it does set before the young student the goal of personal qualification desirable in a good teacher. The Council's booklet is one which is worthy of the close study of all Grade 12 and 13 pupils and their par- ents. And if it is'the means of setting an appreciable number of our well- qualified young people on the road to the teaching profession, it will have served a very useful purpose.

CC leader Don MacDonald got into the agriculture problem the other day and gave some figures. One of them was a comparison on what farmers had received and ditto to merchandisers between 1951 and 1954. His figures, which are presumed to be reliable, are that Canadians spent $417,000,000 more on Cana- dian food in the period, while farmers received $87,000,000 less. REAL PROBLEM It isn't hard to take a conclusion y -- the farmer-- really is paying for the super- merchandising of today, It's an argument we will hear more of. And one on which event. ually the government will have to act. To date merchandising is prac- tically unregulated in the prov- ince. There hasn't been any de- mand here for control of trading stamp or other merchandising plans. But there has been in other Jurisdictions (N.Y. State is one). And with the farmer's income being distributed in trading stamp pop-up toasters and other prem- fums it inevitably will become a problem we will have to face pro- vineially. HE WORKS : Incidentally, a good word on be- half of Mr. MacDonald, No matter how sour ons may be abot some of his thinking (and in this same speech he wandered off into fields which test one's pa- tience) vou have to agree he is doing a job. He is at present about the only effective political opposition in the province. He by himself undoubtedly has ig been more effective than the en- tire Liberal bench of 11 members. He works. You mightn't like some of the conclusions he draws, but he does dig and try and get out facts in a situation. Ard ne does offer alternatives. The agriculture question, for in- stance, is certainly one of the great problems of the province today. And with all the Liberal mem- bers, a number of them farmers, he is the only member to date to make an effective speech on it. WHAT POINT By contrast just a few hours be- fore he made the speech Liberal lead. r Furquhar Oliver made a major radio address. What did Mr. Oliver talk about? Education! What did he talk about in it? NEW TIME TABLES Effective Sunday October 28th Service on the Oshawa route remains unchanged.

Those who are not veterans Cannot truly understand The strength of that bond Of comradeship which has Brought many from distant Points to Oshawa to attend This reunion of comrades Who are bound together By ties of common service And by the sacrifices of Their comrades who died In the two world wars, There is something in the Hearts of these veterans Which makes them crave To meet again with those Who were along with them In the deadly trenches Of the first world war, Or who fought with them On the mountains of Sicily and Italy in the Second great struggle.

That friendship, a few years later, was to be a deciding factor in bring- os about the expansion of the Oshawa motor industry to include the Chevrolet car. R. §.

FOR BETTER HEALTH Care Of Young Diabetic Psychological Problem HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, MD If your child is a diabetic, you may have a great psychological probiem as well as a physical ealth problem on your hands. Care of a young diabetic--and there are a lot of them--presents innumerable stumbling blocks for unwary parents. The dangers of under - protec- tion, carel nd indul are readily apparent and the re- sults might be fatal. But overpro- tection also can be extremely harmful. ABRUPT BEGINNING Generally, diabetes in young pa- tients begins more abruptly and is more severe than in' older pa- tients. If you rigidly enforce adminis tration of insulin, diet restrie- tions and make a great thing out of treating the disease, your youngster may look upon this discipline as both unnecessary and cruel. He may actually feel that you are rejecting him.

Eventually, a child might ac tually rebel against his parents and their insistence on the neces: sary restrictions. You'll get the best co-operation from a youngster under the age of 10, These younger children ex- pect to be told what they can and cannot do by their parents. And they usually obey even though they do not understand the rea- soning behind such orders. DIFFICULT AGE Most difficult age to control is between 12 and 18. During this period of life, the young diabetic is apt to become discouraged. The character of both the patient and his diabetes changes. His insulin and dietary requirements, you see, are in creased during adclescence. And his social and emotional pressures become intensified. As many parents kiow, family rela- In tionships, even with healthy chil- dren, frequently are strained dur- ing the teen-age period. With a diabetic youngster, the problem may be even more serious.
