Tresidder, representative. ~ SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1927 * ATTORNEY GENERAL'S GOOD WORK The campaign recently launched by the Attorney General of Ontario against "Get rich euick" promotion schemes will give general satisfaction throughout the Province. His éfforts are to be commended, and no one with the province's best interests at heart but will wish him speédy and eontinuing success. It is sometimes to be wondered if the out- 4 out criminal is a tenth as much of a men- e as the equally lawless crew, who, instead of eis out and, holding up people or break- ing into homes, set some' form of the "some- thing for nothing" lure and rob under a pre- tence of enterprise. The drive on organizations whom it may be possible to convict will have a warning 'effect throughout the realm of business. The temp- tation to turn sharp corners, to skate on the thin edge of criminal practice is ever present in the world of trade. The history of com- merce is blackened by shady practice, and only stern discipline can keep the weak in line and protect those who accept the challenge of com- petition as a call for more work and keener intellectual effort instead of striving to gain success by cunning or downright trickevy. Business morale always depends on morals, The high cost of living is not a little due to the overhead of lying. PUBLIC SCHOOL NURSES In view of the fact that some epidemic mght gain headway in Oshawa within a few days, it would not be séemly to congratulate the city on the fact that its schools have this year been remarkably free from infectious diseases that usually result in the closing of one or more schools. At the same time, however, the city at large can well take time to feel proud of its public school nurses to whose faithful and zealous efforts this year's freedom from school epi- demics is so largely due. The Oshawa school nurses rather pride themselves on the quietly effective way in which they discharge their duties. They seek no other praise than the approval of their own strict consciences, and under the terse figures of their monthly reports lies only a few know how much of plodding effort and supremely tactful wisdom. ! 'Perhaps just a little more detail about their fine service would be advisable, for those un- able to estimate the money value of schools kept open without interruption are not likely to understand that in that fact the school nursing service is more han paying its way. PRINCE EDWARD ACCLAMATION The return by acclamation of Horace 8. Colliver as member-elect of the Ontario Legis- lative Assembly from Prince Edward Ceunty, can be interpreted only as an endorsement of the existing Government of Ontario. On its general record, the Ferguson administration geems entitled to the compliment paid it in that by- lection. Some will make a superficial analysis , Colliver's return and will probably be inclined to regard it as a message from the People on the subject of the existing liquor Br. system. They will remember that Edward County, in 1925, rolled up a majority of 5,000 votes against Government control, But to regard the election of Mr, Colliver as evidence of an entire change of front in his constituency would give comfort only to those who will never concede that there ins granite of righteousness in the people of his Province just as there is solid bedrock under the fruitful, tolerant contours of its hills, "It is altogether unlikely that sentiment in Prince Edward has undergone any drastic change in two years. Rather, there is logical grounds for believing that temperance support- ers strengthened their position by not opposing Mr. Colliver. The liquor cuesticn should be divorced from polities. A good government should not face annihilation at the polls because it could not, in honesty, impose laws on a minority which it considered unjust. Neither should this Pro- vince run the risk of an evil government being able to cling to power through a platform's | appeal to the hysterical of any opinion. Prince Edward's acclamation does not, of course, immediately bring about these desir- 'able conditions. It merely marks lessening bit- terness, infers the earnest desire of the right living to co-operate with the existing or any Government in safeguarding public morals, and frankly offers co-operation to the Provin- cial authorities in the working out of the prob- lems which confront them and the people at large. 35 : COURTESY Numbers of motor cars aie displaying the yellow and black "I am for Care and Courtesy, | are you?" signs sponsored by the Ministry of Highways. The other day an Oshawa citizen had busi- ness in Toronto and at a railway crossing on' the Kingston Highway at Whitby he found the way blocked, as it is occasionally, by a bragch line train. The two minutes or so spent thdre was soon marked by 'a gradual accumulation of cars. But the last man up invariably edged in until the highway was solidly blocked with automobiles waiting for the train to move, and utterly heedless of the possbility that there were other cars on the other side of the train waiting for the same "opportunity. "THis citizen noted that out of the eight cars bunéhed 'there as if most of their drivers were on 'their way to see a loved relative in the very article of death, and with faint hopes of re- ceivh g'even a farewell smile, five of them dis- played this "I am for courtesy" slogan. "He believes that there is a moral in the story but leaves those to whom he tells it 'to state it. ar SAVING LIVES AT SEA Once more the lives of hundreds are indebted to the perfection of wireless communication which only a few short years ago was still a dream of experimenters and the goal of in- vention, The Italian liner "Princess Mafalda" foundered off the coast of Brazil. Again the fateful "S.0.8." was sent forth by the heroic operator, and in response to that call many ships responded with the result that the larger part of the ill-fated vessel's passengers were saved. In the great Mississippi Valley floods earlier in the year, wireless helped to keep the loss of human life within comparatively negligible limits, Without that service, it is probable that the flood would have been catastrophic to human life as well as property. A further amazing reflection is the rapidity with which the modern world gets used to its ncw marvels, Radio as a household interest has grown up in the years since the war, Yet it is now taken as a matter of course by every one. ' An evening ranging between grand opera from Chicago to relayed time signals from Europe is accepted calmly by this modern gen- eration whose not remote ancestors would have burned at the stake a man even prophesying such magical practices. Yet, for all that, people complain of being bored. It is sometimes to be feared that wonder it outgrowing imagination. POVERTY THEN AND NOW Poverty is a relative condition. That is, the poor of today are more richly endowed with worldly goods than the poor of twenty years ago, although the one felt no poorer nor richer than the other, Many of this age who feel poor would be considered of better than moderate means by their corresponding class of two de- cades past. Picture a boy of poor family in 1907; Hoe- cut hair, trousers made over from father's and then patched, patch-quilt shirt, sans shoes, stockings, and underwear, happy with a penny or a marble, lucky to have darned stockings, baggy underwear and a frayed coat and cap for winter and compelled to work his way into the circus or for his infrequent ice cream soda. And the poor of twenty years ago were content with such homely fare as beef stew, potatoes, and rice. Parents then boasted of wearing the same suit or dress for ten years--it was for- tunate for them their clothes were durable for they could not have purchased new ones. And then there are the poor of the year 1927 who occupy. the same social position as that family of 1907 Just described. The new poor have shoes all around, on occasion they have the raiment to dress both decently and com- fortably, they have carpets on the floor at home and good furniture, the probability is a flivver or second-hand car of larger make is parked in the yard and cakes and pies are not strangers to their table, Once the poor resented 'they could not quit work and still eat; now they complain because they must work to keep up the payments on the automobile, radio, and mother's fur coat and save enough for next summer's tour.
