_ Mr. John Grudeff, a Bulgarian by birth but a yal Canadian by naturalization, recently adâ€" dressed the Rotary Club at Toronto and took ocâ€" _ Easion to emphasize the fact that men and women o aré Canadian in heart and ambition resent _ the tendency of.some other Canadians to class _ them as "foreigners." In‘ Timmins and district where there are many Canadians who were not born in this or any other part of the British Emâ€" sire this difficulty arises. There are times when ib seems necessary for one reason or anotherâ€"to fllflerentiate them from nativeâ€"born Canadians gf British descent. In such cases the term "New Vf}anadians" seems to fill the need in courteous way. Certainly the term, "foreigner‘"‘â€"especially _ if it is offensive to these good citizensâ€"should not fie used. The people The Advance refers to are . pot ‘"foreign‘"‘ in their hopes, their ideals, their friendsh.fip their loyalty. â€"They have gripped _ much of the Old Canadian spiritâ€"the spirit of the of Canadaâ€"the spirit of industry, neighâ€" bourliness, desire for the better things of life. In _ no sense of the word are they "alien" in the true _ meaning . of the term. They are making Canadaâ€" their home and country, have taken up its citizenâ€" ship, offer it loyalty. In Timmins there have been scores of cases in the past few years where the 'New Canadians have shown their love arnd loyalty :or the country and their desire to be more than friendly with the other Canadians. Their conâ€" mbutions to worthy causes, their participation in various activities of the community prove all this. Dimculties of language of customs and usages may confuse the issue, but those who study the question will be forced to the conclusion that any fault found with the New Canadians in general is due chiefly to misunderstandingâ€"and the misâ€" understanding not always on the part of the New _ Canadians. If the "Old Canadians‘" took as much | trouble and made as much earnest effort to underâ€" | stand and appreciate the New Canadians, as the latter do to fit themselves into place in this ‘:"’ijffDonunion there would be less thought and still _ less expression of the term, "foreigners." â€" It is 7 true that certain few agitators of alien origin seem to strive ‘continually to import ideas and policies into this country that are absolutely foreign to Canadian and other British ideals. But the numâ€" ber of these foreigners is small. The greater part of the New Canadians wish to be Canadianâ€"Britâ€" ishâ€"in the truest sense. They should be given every encouragement every assistance, every \ friendliness. Born beneath the British flag in Canada, they are legally Canadians. Naturalized ‘ under the laws ‘of Canada, they are Canadians in the strictest legal sense. The term, "foreigner‘" should be reserved for those who are reaily alien | in their thoughts and minds. It should not be apâ€" ‘ plied to men and women and children who in . spirit, as well as in law and right are Canadian and ‘ British.

Colin Campbell, Minister of Public Works for Ontario, was sent credentials as a delegateâ€"atâ€" large for the National Conservative converition at Ottawa. Of course, the explanation is made that the credentials were sent to the gentleman in error, and a request is reported to have been forâ€" warded to Hon. Mr. Campbell to return the creâ€" dentials to the Conservative headquarters. This the Ontario Liberal Minister refuses to do, saying that he does not intend so easily to relinquish so large a barrel of fun. Hon. Mr. Campbell suggests that he may actually turn up as a dulyâ€"accredited Conservative at the convention, just to see what may happen. He cites the matter‘as "just.another example of Conservative error," and is enjoying the mistake much more than Conservative headâ€" quarters. He explains that the error that resulted in his receiving the credentials asâ€"a loyal Conserâ€" vative, though he has been a lifeâ€"long Liberal party worker, arose from the fact that through the mixing of two sketches in the Parliamentary Guide, the political affiliations and Toronto adâ€" dress of Thomas L. Church, M.P., was added to Mr. Campbell‘s biography. If the same items in Mr. ‘Campbell‘s sketch were added to Mr. Church‘s bBiography the humour of the error, will not be all on the one side. Hon. Mr. Campbell, however, has at present the edge on the fun, because there is no Published Every Monday and Thursday by: _ GORBO, LAKE, Owner and Publisher Per Yoar.

Amssciation; Cinss ‘A" Weekly Group : 2 pine because I dislike mentioning disâ€" tre«ccing â€" situations especlally when # suggestion that Mr. Church has been invited to| any Liberal party conventions. Hon. Mr. Campbell‘s theory is that Conservative headquarters in compiling its lists of delegates for the coming national convention secured at least some of its information from the Parliaâ€" mentary Guide. It is generous of Hon. Mr. Campâ€" bell to give this explanation, as otherwise it might be feared by some that the Conservative headâ€" quarters had attempted to draw delegates from the Liberal party as well as from the C.C.F. It is bad enough to think that the Conservative party needs to refer to Parliamentary Guide rather than have a list of its own. If ever a party needed a list of its members and adherents, the Conservaâ€" tive party needs it toâ€"day, with the choice of a new leader impending. It would be about the limit, if a Parliamentary Guide Conservative were chosen as leader and turned out to be an Ontario Liberal Cabinet Minister. Maybe, Hon. Mr. Campbell spoiled the best part of the joke by telling the story too soon. â€" But if anybody else was given Tommy Church‘s credentials by mistake, the error could not possibly have been concealed for long. Southern Ontario has been suffering from a heat wave. It is not necessary to see the weather reâ€" ports to believe this. All that is necessary is to note the editorial pages of the newspapers. One certain or uncertain Toronto newspaper suggests by its editorial page that there is oppressive heat in Toronto all the time. But on Saturday last The Globe and Mail had an editorial headed, "What the People Don‘t Know," and the editorial was only a brief one, though it referred specifically to Toronto people.. Had the weather been cool it would naturally have spread over into several pages. Then The Telegram asvoted quite a lengthy editorial the same day to the discussion of Fleas, describing their aerial flights, their landâ€" ings and takingâ€"offs, and their motive powetr, without any particular reference to their motive. All of this surely suggests a heat wave in the city. In an editorial on the Louisâ€"Schmeling fight, The Globe and Mail says:â€""Prize fighting has alâ€" so got into the millions brakets." Why put a "b" in that word "bracket"? Hon. Harold Kirby, Minister of Health for Onâ€" tario, suggests that the mental hospitals of the province are too much like jails. At the same time the Dominion Government seems to be planning to turn the prisons of Canada into palaces of luxâ€"~ ury and ease. Taking the two ideas together it would seem that in the past the mentally affiicted hnave not received due consideration, but for the moment at least they are receiving very considerâ€" able attention. : {GRAVEL AND SANDâ€"AND PLACER, Delegates to the tenth annual reâ€"union of the Alumni Association of the School for the Blind at Brantford last week passed a resolution charging that the blind people of Ontario have been sysâ€" tematically exploited by persons selling goods and collecting in the name of the blind, and the assoâ€" ciation asked Premier Hepburn to institute an inâ€" vestigation at the earliest possible moment. The resolution has particular interest in Timmins at the present moment for two particular reasons. Some time ago The Advance made protest against a gang of sighted canvassers attempting to sell goods here on the plea that it would ‘"help the blind," while there was cause to doubt whether the blind would receive any material advantage, though it was apparent that good sales would mean good profits for the sighted canvassers. The secâ€" ond reason for special interest here rests in t,hei fact that two blind men are here organizing for the annual campaign for the Canadian National Institute for the Blind in this district. D. B. Lawley, field secretary for the Institute for the. Blind, is wellâ€"known here for his notable work in helping other blind people to better and broader life. It is certain that the Canadian National Inâ€" stitute for the Blind, most of whose workers and officers are blind themselves, is not exploiting the blind, but rather is doing wonderful work for Canâ€" ada as well as for those affiicted with blindness. The work of the Canadian National Institute for the Blind needs no special investigation. That inoble work speaks for itself. If the governments :could turn all work for the blind into the hands ;of the Canadian National Institute for the Blind, it would mean the end of exploitationâ€" of the blind by those with schemes as well as sight. In the meantime, the people of this district can help the blind in double way by generous contribution to the present camaign. Every dollar given will mean a dollar‘s worth more of kindly, intelligent and wellâ€"placed assistance to the blind. It will mean also another dollar‘s worth of discourageâ€" ment to those who seek to exploit the blind.
