TUESDAY, JULY 13, 1927 OSHAWA'S GROWTH Oshawa is adding rapidly to her factories, sehools and dwelling-places, Almost every is- sue of The Times' contains news of extensions, A correspondent, in a personal letter to the editor, commenting in favourable terms on our Diamond Jubilee number, says, 'You must have a remarkable city there, Expansion is taking place in. every sort of worth-while activity, So far as I can learn no city in On- tario, or in Canada for that matter, is growing as Oshawa is, And it seems to be solid and substantial growth, building on a reliable foundation," Yes, Oshawa is developing in every way. The public health is good; water is excellent; milk is 'the best that can be asked for; business is good and all the time getting better; everyone is optimistic, Our population is growing. Houses are scarce but that will soon be remedied, Anyway, scarcity of houses is a good is a mighty fine place in which to live and work, FRANCES DAY July the fourteenth is France's national holi- day, Although the event which it commemor- ates took place one hundred and thirty-eight years ago, nothing has dimmed the ardour with which the French undertake its celebration, The storming of the Bastille more than a century and a quarter ago is the occasion for this hcliday., To one who knows little of French history the simple designation given the" Bastille as a celebrated state prison in France is perhaps sufficient, But in the long period of its existence the Bastille acquired a name and fame much more significant than the words "state prison" indicate, More than a hundred years before Columbus discovered "the land of the free" the first stone of this prison was laid, The story of the Bastille is a long account of terrors and tortures, many of which have po doubt been exaggerated in the course of centuries of reptition. Such was the nature of the methods by which men of all stations in iife were put and kept in this prison that the institution came to be regarded by the people as the symbol of oppression. Men must find concrete objects for the things they worship or loathe and so nalirally, at the time of the cutbreak of the revolution, the Bastille was une of the first objects of attack at the hands ct those who thought they were overthrowing Lae autocracy, In song and story and even in painting, the cverthrow of the Bastille has been a famous subject. Even to this day wherever people are sore oppressed by those who urge them to rise against their oppressors, the story of the fall ot the Bastille is always a thrilling one. In some manner the destruction -of this prison is symbolic of the slogan of the French revolution --* Liberty, Equality, Fraternity." FARM LIFE IS DIFFERENT The farmer knows that life in the country has not always been the idyllic existence the country-hungry folks have pictured it. Only the "new farmer" cannot remember the strug- gle against nature and the days of sup-up to sun-down toil once the lot of the men and wo- men on the farm. The modern farm is as un- like its antecedents as the modern factory is unlike its prototype and as the modern city home is unlike the home of two decades ago. On the farm today are found the automobile, 'iractor, telephone, electric lights and power, milking machines, harvesting and planting machinery performing several operations simul taneously, the radio, the household comforts and conveniences of the city home and even leisure and pecreation. The prodigal son wouldn't know the old farm if he returned to- day after an absence of two decades. True it is that some farmers still. employ the primitive methods of agriculture, and re- fuse to emancipate themselves from their slavery to the soil by adopting labour-saving devices. And it is just as true that the agri- culturists as a class have been slow to'adont modern methods. Ll lie degot long past whey hefangled, pooe nam EC i THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, JULY 13, 1927 notions" were exceedingly distrusted on the farm, The "old way" was good enough for the fathers and what was good enough for the fathers was good enough for the sons when they succ@eded to the management of the farm. It was not vanity nor obstinacy which caused good farmers to scoff at scientific methods in those days, the best farmers sincerely believed they could get out of the soil only what the soil yielded of its own volition. The change on the farm has been nothing short of revolutionary. and the revolutionists have been the men and womén who for genera- tions had stubbornly resigted change and im- peded progress.! «| ' , AHE BUSY-MAN Modern buginess has engendered several axioms which-wrival the rarest bits of wisdom of the ancienty , Among the most frequently quoted is, "if you want simething done take it to the busy man." A companion epigram reads, "A good workman never wants for a job," Axioms and epigrams that endure do not just happen, To go down through the generations they must express in a concise and vivid man- ner an obvious truth, "The axioms of the busy man and the good workman fill this require- ment, There is a reason why one should patronize the busy man and the workman who has a joh, The, busy man is busy hecause he has earned a reputation for giving dervice expeditiously and satisfactorily, The best recommendation a workman can desire is the faet that he is not out of work, Very often employers are forced through a' labour shortage to accept workers who do not come from another job, but when allowed to choose betweén the em- ployed and the unemployed they always pick the former, The axiom of the busy man applies to the professional man, store, hotel, factory, office and every other branch and phase of business. axiom of the good workman is applicable to all classes of labour, The world wants more busy men and good workmen. TODAY IS HERE--USE IT! A man must make good or make room--go forward or drop back. No man can stand still in any position. To mark time in modern life is impossible, This statement applies to class; creed, sex or circumstances--rich, poor, com- fortable or cramped, 3 In an interview with one of the most suc- cessful men, the statement as made that not one man in fifty renders intelligent service. Look around you. Check them up and see whether this is true. If it is true that clerks watch the clock, secretaries fail to remember, department heads lack initiative, superintendents fall in a rut--if this be true, is it not time to think that this condition creates for you a field that is undeveloped? The next successful man interviewed doubled the number of people who are incap- able or indifferent. He claimed there are ninety-nine who lack intelligent enthusiasm, and a sincere desire to serve, to every ome that is eager and ambitious, conscientious and courageous. You may not be ready to accept a position of responsibility today, but today is the day to begin to get ready. And the one thing that you must do in order to fill a position of responsibility is to find what faults are holding you back, and then correct these faults. Gloss over your faults, excuse your shortcomings, and you are not vet ready for greater responsibility. You will belong to the 49 or the 99.

NENSIBLE ONTARIO "(Buffalo Courier Express) Prohibitionists who may have been making ready to point to On- \ario as a horrible example are ap- parently going to be doomed to dis- appointment.

Enquiries along the frontier have brought to The Courier-Express the lation of the thirsty in the first joys of legitimatized throat lubricators has resulted in an increase of intoxica- tion, The people of the province buy their booze and take .it home for consumption amid surroundings and in conditions which encourage a pleasurable sobriety.

More than any other fact or it sheuld serve to combat the outzide influences of which some of us are apprehensive--foreign literature, advertisements, and mov- ing pictures. Living so close to a people so prone as are our neighbors to extol the greatness of their country and their achievements, we in Canada almost require the armor of a con- stant awareness of the happiness of our own lot in being citizens of a blessed land richer in many respects | 'than any other on the face of the earth. To bring to us a sense of the glory and greatness of Canada and to do honor to the memory of those who handed on to us this heritage-- that was the supreme purpose of the jubilee celebraaion, and un- qguestionably it has been aceomplish- ed.

ASSASSINATION WAS POLITICAL MURDER Crime Not Motivated By | Private Reasons 1 | FTRORNLE Dublin, July 12. President Cos- grave speaking in the Dail today un- hesitatingly declared that the as- sination of Kevin O'Higgins, vice- ! Presiaent of the Free state Coun- cil, was not motivated by private { Tenaaua but was a politica murder. | Whether the police have yet laid hands on the actual murderers is still unknown. Ten men were charged today with conspiracy to murder Mr. O'Higkinsg, and were ! remanded until next Monday. Each denied when arrested any knowl- {edge of the crime, and no evidence | was offered in court. | George Plunkett Arrested Among those arrested was (gorge | Plunkett, son of Count George Plun- | kett, 1 { [ | Asking permission to make a ptatemeng in gourt, wPlungeit de- clured: "These gentlemen are all of the same mind that 1 should say on their behalf and on my own that none of us is in any way connected with the matter under considera: tion, It is only fair to the public at large and to our friends in par- ticular that they should understand clearly that. none of us here has had any knowledge whatever of the affair, and, in fact, it would appear from the manner in which we have heen arrvested---some of us before lin similar circimnstances---that we were handy people to fill up a gap.

Many heau- tiful wreaths are being sent from political and other bodies as well as individuals. Dramatic Incident A dramatic incident occurred at Mansion House tonight as prepara- | tions were in progress for the re- moval of the hody of Kevin O'Hig- gins to St. Andrew Church, where 1 it is to remain until burial. The tall candies which had surrounded the as hody while lying in state had been ! and extinguished, and by the light of a shaded lamp a group of workmen were fixing the lid of the coffin. Suddenly a military officer hurried into 'the room and told the men to stay their work, as the Governor- General and the President had ar- rived to take a farewell look at their old comrade. The folds which enshrouded the face were drawn aside, and Timothy Healy and William T. Cosgrave came slowly to the coffin side. The Governor, whose wife was buried only yesterday, stood for a moment gazing at the peaceful face of his murdered nephew, then stooped and bestowed a farewell kiss on' the forehead, displaying deep emotion. President Cosgrave came forward and laid his right hand on the brow of his friend, and passed on.

The coffin having been closed, it was born by civie guards to a gun carriage drawn by six black horses, A long procession, headed hy the Governor and one of the brothers of the murdered Minister, formed and accompanied it to the church.
