To the Electors of Durham: On July 3Oth, a nuruber cf citizens frorn various muni- cipatibies in Duihani met in convention at Oron-o andi asked me if I would consent te becomne a candidate in the coming federal election. After soete estitation, on account of farr, home, and coznmunity ies, I bave decidedti t enter the contest. To many wsg'know me I neeti net tell of my connectien with Durham. To those who doeflot but wbe have angtt know rny antecedents, I would say that I and my fýmlyfo four generatiens before me have been hemn and îaised in this ceunty. At the present time 1 bave ne peciiniary interest wbatever outside of Durham and my pensonal inteîests reach out into the larger field only as one cf the general etectorate. By nay wn desire and in agreement with the will of the convention I arn in the field as an independent candidate. if etecteti I arn free, therefore, te support measunes on their mer- its rather than with any view te part>' advantage. At the sanie tisme I stand for a definite clear-cut peticy and shall woîk and vote consistently foi the pole>'. Tse articltes of this policy are:- Clean, straight-forward goyeramnent. This means im- mediatelY a continued and tboicngh investigation o! the custoins departument, îooting out ths abettois o! Uhlicit traffic in tiquer andi kindreti wares across the border. The federat machinery of government should be nmade to assist rather than hinder the provincial authorities and the governinent o! the Uniteti States in hs enfoicement cf legislation. Deurease, rather than iscrease, in the customis tariff: Re- ductions cf recent years show that lower tariffs mean lower prices te the consumer, incieased sales, more anti steadier work for mechanica, and a more even distributi o f Vhs coinforta anti conveniences of hf e. Mauntenance of the public ownership of the National Railways. Now that they are on thte roadti o stacce-sa insidious propaganda is on foot te have them. turned back inte the bands o!fenonied men. Proper regulation cf the traffic in int!oxicatiug liquor. I and rny forebears bave given strong drink a wide berth and I believe it shoutd be ptaced where it can do as littie banni te j ohers as it has Vo us. On this point I1ssii resotute. To represent Durhamn is an honor which ne man of! merit ceutti hold tightLy. Now that 1 ami in Vhs contest I covet it. Shouid the electers of Durhamn bestow it upon me on September 14tb, next I shall work whole-heartedly to establitah ie polie>' for which I stand.

Bowrnanvile Rotary Club bas had ,Many fine àdresses detivered at its gatherings but none was more en- joyabte than that given on Friday night at Bowman House by Met. J. Hutchinson, Manager of Hugli C. IMa--Lean Publications Ltd., Toronto. Believing our readers witl peruse with interest and profit this address we reproduce it herewith: This is an bonor that 1 assure you I appreciate very highly. 1 siee seat- ed, around this room men wbo were in business in Bowmanville when I attended the old South Ward School and where I arn afraid I caused the tate Principal Chas. Keith and my first teacher at that time, Miss I. Gould, many an unhappy moment. In due tirne I was transferred te the Uptcwn Schoel entering it the first term, after it was rebult foloiwing the fire. I recail that the late Malcolm McTavish was my first teacher there and in celupany with, but considerably behind them in sch-olarly attainments, I ,went thru the three higher reems in'that sehool with Fred Vanstone, Jack Hrine, Oscar Ls.Belle, Castsel and Albert Tait, Chartie Weeks, the Dickenson boys and many others. Ait of these beys, whose careers 1 have been able to foltow, have turned out te be credita-ble members of society and many have achieved outstanding suc- cess, in spîte of the handicap of as- sociation with myself during their early days. In this cernpany, toc, are the men in the younger genera. tion-the boys like Normuan and George James, Tommy Knight,1 Frank Morris and others who were1 mere babes in armas when "Master"t McTavish was throwing the rest of us around the floor in~ the otd sen- ior thýird room. It is a matter of extresue pleasure to me that I shouta have been invited to address you men of business, mien in professions and men of substance in this, tbe town of my boyhood days. il take it tbat* this meeting bas been arranged and I have, been ask- ed to speak to you as Rotarians and as non-Retarians because somebody feit that I could bring you some kind of a message that would b. ofi some benefit te someïbady. Rotary« has its period of fun and its tighteri side when w. are able te f orget for a white oui proiblems of profits, (or2 tosses), of turnover, of overbeed (or2 overdraft), of bad delbte, of ineffi-1 cient help, of the sins of aur competi- tors, of the chain store and the mail-î oider bouse, but il bas aise its ser- tous purpose and I don't know, but I suspect that I was asked bo corne te Bowimanvitte and as an old Bow- manviUe boy try te interpret Rotary te you men who, wbether yeu are Rotarians in' name or RotarianLs in spirit (in that you practise thse Gold- en Rute) are ait helping to work out in this town the ideal of better citi-1 zensbip, of the square deal to every-à one, of the chance for the under- privileged -boy and of the dissipationt of the otd ideas of business and pro-t fessional co'mpetition. Wle oftenE hear that "Coinpetition is the tif. o! trade" andi ususýly the. msh who ays it is thin.king of comnpetition fer1 the other feltew, not for himself. I tbink that Rotary ta ehanging oui notion about cosupetition through the eperation of what we cati the 6th Ob- jeet. Peîbaps I may repeat 1t: To encourage and foster the advance- ment cf understanding, good-witt and international peace through a wortd-fellowabip cf business and pro- fessional men, united in the Rotary ideat cf Service. Ncw, perbaps just a few words about this tbing we cati Rotary may net be eut cf place. I suppose ne two men witt give the Umse defi- tien cf Rotary and Rotarians. I shall not attempt one. I woutd tiýke, how- ever, te belt yen hoîw Rotary started and perhaps that wilt supply the ans- wer te the question "IWhait is Rot- ary?" About twenty years age there tived in Chicago a tonely taw- yer nanaed Paut Harrs. I guesa he had originatiy tiveti in a to<wn tike Bowmanvitte .wbere he knew every- one and where they att called hima "6Paut". Be found it different in u Chicago. There few knew, or ap- c parerrtly cared te know birri Paul f Barris was a man who wantedf friends and b. wanted te be a friend.a He founti, by talktng te the tee business associates be had met an&i r becoine at ait intimate wlth, thatc they were ln exactty the~ sasse posi- tion as hiniself. They, toc, wanted to bave friends andt te b. frienda. 0f r 5e a CODV N-. 31 LOCAL AND -OTHERWISE Mr. Frank Sutherland visiteti friends at Ashburn. Mr. and Mrs. Jno.
