E oquent Addresses When Youthful Orators Compete In Bowmanville Contest on Rickard With Her] Subject, "Modern Persia and Its Capital" Wins i First Place -- Marie Val- I lean, Second A----- Speakers tt Show Marked Ability » = (my Staff Reporter) Bowmanville, Dec. 3.--Marion Ric- | kard, with her subject "Modern Per- | gla and its Capital," won the Ora- Latorical contest in the Assembly Hall jjof Bowmanville High School last i ht against four opponents, Marie "Valleau, speaking on the '"Hssen- tials of Progress' was second; Kath- | Jeen Hall, with her subject "Succezs Yor Canada," won third prize; James "Devitt, speaking on "Ontario's For- "ests," won fourth prize; while Mar- 2jon Allin, detailing the progress of ¥¥ Aviation," came fifth. * There were to be two prizes for sboys and two prizes for girls, but as only one boy entered the contest, | and there were four girls, Principal Ly W, J. Morrison, B,A,, announced that | the prizes would be given to the four who were declared to be the best. " The first Tamblyn prize, which was "intended for the hest boy orator, was "to be given to the one who came first; the first Galbraith prize, . in- 'tended for the best girl orator, was to be given to the one who came sgecond; the second Tamblyn prize ' awarded to third, and the second "Galbraith prize was to be given to the person who came fourth. . The donors of the awards are W. W. Tamblyn, a former teacher of Bowmanville High School, and BE. G. M. Galbraith, a graduate of the school, and now of Toronto. W, B. Couch, chairman of the High School Board, announced that he would see to it that a prize was given to the person who was allotted fifth place. The judges of the competition were Mrs. J. H. H, Jury, Captain G. C. Bonnycastle, and Rev. J. U. Robins, minister of Trinity United Church. The first speaker in the contest was James Devitt, who, in speaking about "Ontario's Forests," declared that the lumbering was the second greatest industry in the province. Agriculture came first, he pointed out, lumbering came ahead of min- ing. ! "If we take care of our forests," the speaker declared, "we shall reap even greater prosperity in the fu- ture. There is more lumber destroy- ed by fire in Ontario than has been used commercially, The government is doing its best to stop this, and planes, 1000 rangers, and high tow- ers atop of high elevations, are all called into service to help present five, "The forests of Ontarlo are respon- sible for the employment of 16,000 men. The forests keep down our taxes through the contribution of ap- proximately three million dollars yearly to the treasury by lumber companies, they temper our climate, regulate the flow of water in the investment in 40 years." Reciting the poem of Joyce Kilmer, the speaker brought out that, while "Poems are made by fools like me, Only God can make a tree." Kathleen Hall, who won. third prize in the contest, was the next speaker called upon, She spoke on "Success for Canada." Declaring that we, in this Diamond Jubilee Year of this young but pros- perous country, take too many things for granted about it. Miss Hall said people should realize that Canada leads the world in exports of agri culture, her largest industry, yet only one fifth of her arable land is being worked today. "We have here the largest re- sources of lumber in the Empire despite our heavy losses each year by fire. That is not all, our as bestos and nickle deposits are the largest in the world, and in this country is the second largest known gold mine. There has been an in- crease in the past year of $630,000 in our mineral industry, and an in- crease is expected also for next year, as only the top of our deposits is being tapped. "As a manufacuring country, we are making great strides, one half of our people living in cities, sup- ported by this industry, The future | of manufacturing in this country looks very bright, as we have raw materials and power to convert them into finished products. Every square mile of inland and coast water abounds in fish, and this industry is progressing. "There is water power in abun- dance in Canada, albeit some of it is still inaccessible and it is not com- mercially feasible to develop it at present. However development along these lines will come later, as it is needed, Great Railway Lines "We have two of the greatest rail way lines in the world in this coun- try, and we have more railway mile- age per capita than any other coun- try in the world today.

The telephone was invented in this country, in this province, and we are utilizing it to.a very great extent, "Few nations have progressed as we have in such a short time and we have done it during comparative peace, Our example of a country which can live alongside another without wars or bickerings, is rous- been at peace with our neighbor for over one hundred and ten years. "Crime has always been at an ex- ceedingly low ebb in this country and most of the credit for this goes to that organization. the Canadian Mounted Police, formerly called the Royal North-West Mounted Police.

"It is a sportsmen's country, and practically everyone takes part in some of the varied sports possible here. To strengthen the body is to strengthen the nation, and sport not | only strengthens the body, but also | the mind and soul. | Beauty in Canada "There 1s beauty and grandeur throughout Canada, and as Premier Baldwin said recently on his return home from here, "There is not one city or town in the easi, west, or the middle, where I could not have set- tiled down and felt at home.' "This is a great tribute for a great country from a great man. Let us be worthy of our heritage," counsel led Miss Kathleen Hall. "Our parents speak of the Good Old Times," said Marie Valleau, who won second prize with her subject "The Essentials of Progress," 'but the Good Old Times of father's time, were really Bad Old Times. Ours are the Good New Times. "Impossibilities, and Infedilitis, were the words which experimenters received from those who considered themselves pious, when it was sug- gested that engines would take us faster than the modes of travel then It was said that if God intended that we should travel at the outrageously fast speed of fifteen miles an hour, He would have fore- told it to the prophets. 2 I FAGES ATTEMPTED BURGLARY CHARGE Lawrence Kenneth Wicke Being Tried in Cobourg ; Today (By Staff Reporter) Bowmanville, Dec. 3.--Lawrence Kenneth Wicke, 23 year old young man, who was arrested by Constable Walter Hall with the assistance of Richard McMullen on a charge of attempting to enter the store of Couch; Johnston and Crydecman, King street, was tried by Judge E. C. 8. Huyecke in Cobourg today. When arraigned before Magis- trate Col. W. H. Floyd, the ac- cused elected trial by the county judge. On account of the illness of Judge McGlade, Judge Huycke, of Peterboro' was detailed to the case, Constable Hall declares he saw accused take the screen out of the window and place it on tHe ground, appareutly with the purpose of en- tering the store. Two others who were with Wicke escaped. Wicke has not revealed their names so far as is known, The constable's atten- tion was drawn to them when he saw them walking around the backs of many stores on the main block. "However, everything was but a thought at one time. The library to- day is but a museum of preserved thoughts. The thought of "Paradise Lost" made Milton a great poet, while the thought of "Hamlet" made Shakespeare the greatest dramatist. "In the early days there was a sea civilization but Columbus was laughed at when he said he the Western Stars, For him the ocean held no terrors, and he set out, His sailors several times were on their knees before him and wept to return, but Columbus ordered them on, "On, toward the setting sun'. He thought he would find land, and he had the sirength of his convictions. "It has been said that all wealth is produced by labor, but this is not 80. Brain power invents and harn- esses wild power to do the work of one hundred men and more. Do not brains create wealth for us? Every school teacher who gives ideals, ev- ery writer who stimulates thought, and every mother who imparts holy impressions and makes her children pure, strong and free, are all help- ing in the production of wealth. "The man who harnessed steam, the man who perfected the grape and the man who formed the north- ern spie apple by grafting a small sweet apple onto a large sour apple all helped to produce help. "A ton of pig iron sells for $40, but when made into horse shoes it is worth $400. However when it is made into hair springs, the same ton of pig iron is worth $10,000, The value of brains to a ton of pig iron is $9,960, Yes, brains produce wealth the same as labor. "There is no room in this world for the man who shirks his duty, and for greater progress it is neces- sary that Labor and Capital and Ab- ility materially co-ordinate and help each other, "Good will shall succeed hate, and Labor and Capital will come closer together. Brotherly love will sue- ceed hate and war will be no more, for we shall be no longer divided in- ' de- the banner of the Lord of Lords,' clared Miss Valleau, Wins Fifth Place The next speaker, Marion Allin, who was awarded fifth place for her speech on Aviation, declared that Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh, by i. lone flight from New York to Paris, where he was enthusiastically ae- claimed by French, brought France ing almost antagonistic toward each other on account of war debts, into much closer fellowship by the friend- liness of his smile, which is almost as famous as that of "Our Prince." "Many bave tried to emulate him," continued the speaker, "and besides those who failed to cross, none have received the acclaim and success attended the brave young son of a former Congressman and a Detroit school teacher, "One man has not been responsible alone for the airplame as it is to- day, but each has learned from the efforts of the man who went before him. Many heroic lives have been lost in the attempt to perfect the "heavier than air" machine. Zeppelin Airship "In 191v, Count Zeppelin built an airship of the type which stil bears bis name. It has been greatly im- proved, but it is this type of ship which d the people of Lond and the British War Office many worries during the war.

However the war broke out and the "plane was sold to Great Britain, who used it to escort ships across the English Channel. "Previous to the war, aviation was mostly self-educative. Military op- erations were tried with them, but in a social way they were most negli- gent. During the war, they were used for aerial scouting, artillery ob- servation in conjunction with wire- less, and attacks were made by ar- mored "planes. "Lindbergh was always attracted yal Family.

That it will play an important one is al- ready evidenced by what is being done at this date. Mail is being transported in United States and in Europe, and passengers are being regularly transported from one coun- try to another in the Old World," concluded Miss Allin, The manner in which she spoke on "Modern Persia and its Capital" won for Marion Rickard the first. prize in the school competition. Persia, the speaker pointed out, is three times the size of Franch, and is situ- ated on a high plateau. "The women of this land which was rediscovered by the Great War, are especially quaint. Dressed in her favorite color, either blue or red, they come to town with their pro- duce. A long, embroidered veil, generally white, streams backward from the bronzed face, and usually she carries a baby upon her back. "The story of the beginning of the custom of wearing veils is that a wealthy Mohammed, while walking with his wife, was given an offer that he sell her by an Arab who was prepossgessed by her beauty, The Mohammed then ordered her and others to wear veils, and the cus- tom has now become general.

"I reclaimed 1, acres by putting a herd of cattle on land which was overgrown with scotch- thisstle by a wheat farmer, "The cattle industry, the original legitimate business started in the west, is the golden oportunity for this country as no country in the world can raise cattle as cheaply as Western Canada.

WILL BUILD RAILWAY IF EVERY ONE ELSE FAILS Vancouver, B.C., Dec. 2--=E8peak- ing here last night at a public re- ception held in his honor, Premier J. D. McLean declared that failing receipt of satisfactory offers from either of the great transcontinental railways or from a private com- pany for the Pacific Eastern Rail- way, there was only on thing to do, "build the line from Vancouver to Prince George and finally to the Peace River." The Premier said that his own preference was to see the railway become part of one of the trams- continental systems, but that so far peither had made an offer that was acceptable to the Provincial Gov- ernment.

He became a cow puncher, gad when the King of England was visi» ing a rodeo in the west, he asked that he might see a cowboy rope a steer. Col.
