" "Oshawa's police force deserve a commenda- tion for doing its duty and deing it so well.

"To profit is their sole aim. Degradation of 'another in the process, even mprder itself, peans nothing to this serpentine clan that, in many . cases, has fled to Canada under a text of seeking a larger life; whereas, from moment they land here, they seem bent on seeking the lives of this land's people ' o stand to them as benefactors, whose clean give them castles of refuge. & SEEKERS AFTER WISDOM ipal O'Neill of the Oshawa Collegiate tute announces that 425 are enrolled in institution's might school and that fur- r increases are expected. ; 1 Comparison with night schools: in other ties of the Province show that this enroll- int is not only 3 record for Oshawa but for , being about three times the provin- average. : * dismiss this splendid fact merely with tulation would be both unwise and Why is there this tremendous interest in wocational education? = It 't because Oshawa is an industrial city , because all growing cities, in a sense, a industrial. 1t isn't lack of opportunity or pepti high quality of citizenship me the city's youth. + Rather, the answer seems fo lie in the power a daily example throughout Oshawa's in- and business.

Oshawa affords living proof peg of the race's maxims about building a career. "This man, for instance, is a walking illus- tration of the value of thrift a young man saves, not what hz makes that determines his financial future. . Across the way, however, young ainbition sees how special talefits joined with special training can give a man leadership. ~ These things coupled with opportunity such as the Collegiate night classes offer are re- sponsible for the unprecedented enrollment re- ported by Mr. O'Neill. It is a splendid thing but also something that places a grave responsibility upon the city's educational authorities. To quite a large percentage of that 425 the Night School is synonymous with hope. No effort, no rea- sonable expenditure should be spared in seeing that these seekers after wisdom are allowed the widest range of opportunity. ON BEING NASTY Newspapers are always under the tempta- tion, in the editorial sense at least, of being. "nasty"---or making ill-natured remarks about their contemporaries for instance. There is nothing, however, so self-revealing either in man or newspaper as this letting passion, an- noyance or fear get the upper hand. A Litany for journalism should begin with .a prayer against hypocricy and end with "From making an ass of ourselves, good Lord deliver us!" For there is nothing in human form with longer ears than the man or institution who indulges in the cowardice of words. Cain was a coward, and the mark that God set on him was probably the one which all the fearful of heart bear to this day--they talk too much. This does not preclude the stating of a grievance, but to state a grievance with abuse is elect trial without judge or jury. That s to~say, to refuse trial altogether, to avoid reason and argument, to prefer self-pity's de-* lusion of martyrdom. A true martyr, after all, is merely a perfect loser. FLEE PUBLICITY w-- The Times, like*other newspapers the world over, is repeatedly the victim of artful attacks in an effort to secure valuable space for the introduction of various schemes for private gain or the moulding of public opinion toward "putting over" some plot. Some bureau or syndicate or manufacturer oz politician will hit upon a happy idea, and some clever fellow will tell him just how he ean work the newspapers for all the "stuff" needed ; whereupon the "expert" is engaged or the 'advice is taken without the aid of the ex- pert. He makes good at getting the stuff out ~but . publishers are too keen to allow the grafting game to go too far. Invariably, when the scheme is found out in time, and the matter is refused, a threat is hurled at the publishers that the "story" will be given to another paper. The plot works, ¢*fasionally, but not al- ways. | . In th long rum, the schemer usually loses out because never again can the paper be ap- proached in the same way by the same scheme. Bit of Verse WHEN THE LEAVES FALL When sunny days and frosty nights Have wrought their mystic alchemies, With amber warp and woof of flame ; They weave their Orient tapestries; And where the leafy tents of green All summer long their shadows cast, Octoper's gay pavilions stand "wn levelled by November blast. Green leaves and golden--fair were they; But beautiful, when they are gone, The changing pageant of the skies, The drifting elouds, the rose of dawn; And, when those splendid curtains fall That nightly foiled the peeping stars, I note the blaze of sunset fires And catch the ruby glow of Mars; I see pale Venus' lamp of pearl Across the purpling heavens areh Flash signal to the hosts of night To recommence their stately march And watch while world on radiant world With answering gleam wheels into place; Until the fiery dot-and-dash, Far-glimmering, fills the deeps of space. F So doth the near obscure the far, : The earthly hide the heavenly vein, And life must oft some glory lose Ere we can see the stars shine through, ~--Annie Johnson Flint. mm Serta WY HT a ray ows ee ; of how it's what | o| Adres, {| British Empire, including India, Sin- | alighting in military formation at {MINE INJUNCTION | the decree entered by the Pittsburg Lebux En Route to Buenos Aires Pernambuco, Brazil, Oct. 14.-- TF pene and Canadian Pacific tervals of from five to 10 minutes during certain hours of the day the telegraph operators have had to suspend operations.
