D. Tresidder, repre. sentative, REPRESENTATIVES IN US, Powers aud Stone, Inc, New York and Chicago, SATURDAY, JUNE 9, 1928 TER THE WORK OF THE BIBLE SOCIETY The observance of May 27th and June 8rd 'as Bible Sundays in Oshawa and the announ- cement of the local branch that the collect- ing is about to begin in this city recalls the immense work which is done by the British and Foreign Bible Society of which the local Bible Society in Oshawa forms a constituent part, While the Society works in hearty co-op- eration with the missionaries of every Com- munion, it is in itself a great missionary or- ganization, and through its 1,000 colport~ eurs, carries the Bible, God's Living Word, to people high and low, learned and ignorant, of every land, Many are the names given to the hundreds of humble men and women who, in the So- ciety's service, travel from place to place, offering the Holy Scriptures, To the casual observer there is nothing to distinguish them from other péddlers who go about with a pack on their shoulders or a satchel in their hands, Yet these men are invested with the high dignity of God's doorsmen, They itinerate in the character of introduc- ers, For this high office they have one su- preme qualification, They may not be learn. ed--many of them are, But they dare to call the Christ of their Book their Lord and . Friend, and out of their deep and rich ex- perience they speak to the common folk in "Come" they say, "Let me introduce you to Jesus," They do not wait for men to come seeking, though that sometimes happens, but they go out in- to the high-road and by-ways to tell their story and point the way. Mountains of prejudice have to be over- come, and it is only men or rare grace and real courage and initiative, bearers of an enobling message, who can succeed in the delicate and difficult task. Sometimes they find a glad response, often a rebuff, but a merry heart, an inflexible purpose and a ready tongue backed by a deep assurance be- eause "The entrance of God's Word giveth light" they persevere in their high task. 'This is only one aspect.of the Society's work. The officers of the Oshawa branch of the Upper: Canada Bible Society are Mr, C. A. Kinnear, President. Mr, J. H. R. Luke, Sec- retary; Mr. R. N. Johns, Treasurer, and Mr, J. D, McKay, Assistant Secretary. y VOTES: MALE AND FEMALE FJ [] -- - ¢ Germany, like many other nations, is curi- ous to know whether the majority of women - exercise the right of franchise for which they struggled so many years. But unlike other nations, which are content to continue wondering, Germany is taking steps to ans- wer the question, In this large but young European republic women's ballots are to differ from the men's. Tabulations after elections will show how many women voted and the type of candi- date and the party .favored by feminine voters, 'This is especially important to Ger- many where women voters outnumber men voters by 2,250,000. the most ambitious, this is not the first attempt made to learn the relative volume of the feminine vote. Earlier ex- in several countries have shown that it is usually smaller than the mascu- line. No accurate count has been made in Canada, but it is certain that there are more vote-slackers among women than among men. Were an accurate analysis made of the THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, JUNE 9, 1928 Wl ht change their tactics and platforms. Or it might be discovered that what gets men's votes will win women's votes, Stenographers are notoriously bad spell: ers, according to a popular belief which must have been spread by their employers, Not all of those who give dictation are infallible in spelling, but it is obvious that they must know the sight of some words or they would . not detect the errors of their typists and of those who type their incoming mail, So caustic and general has been the criti- cism of the stenographer for her ortho- graphic shortcomings that a defender was bound to appear. This inevitable champion is here, He is Dr. Frank H, Vizetelly, noted lexicographer, orthographer and orthologist, Doctor Vizetelly does not go so far as to 'say that stenographers are good spellers, but for much of their bad spelling he places re- sponsibility upon those from whom they take dictation, In a recent newspaper inter- view he was quoted as saying: "Anyone who mispronounces has no right to chide anybody else for misspelling. The man who says 'progrum' has no right to com- plain if his stenographer spells the word as he mispronounces it," This acquits the stenographer in part, All who write have had the experience of mis- spelling a common word simply because they or someone in their hearing gave it an er- roneous pronunciation, The employer who uses shoddy English needs an orthographer for a stenographer but usually makes a word-butcher out of a fair speller, Here is a cue for stenographers to indulge in a little' counter-criticism, PLANE PRODUCTION GROWS Aviation is growing, in spite of those who are certain planes are being wrecked faster than new ones can be manufactured and who can see no commercial future for fiying, There are now sixty-one aircraft factories in the United States producing planes, and the combined value of their output last year was $14,250,605, That represents an in- "crease of $5,500,000 over the preceding twelve months, These factories produced 1,962 planes last year, an increase of 60 per cent, over the 1926 production, These production figures would seem large if the automobile industry had not taught the public to talk production in terms of millions, And yet it was not so many years ago 'that the automobile indus- try was trying to pass the 1,000 mark in production, Manufacture of airplanes may increase several hundred per cent, this year. Produc- tion for the first five months is far ahead of that for the corresponding period of 1927, and still more plants are 'being built and present plants are being enlarged, The new planes are going into the various military services, the air-mail service, com- mercial air transportation and private hang- ars, Before January 1, 1929, there will be several new passenger, express and mail air lines in operation and hundreds of new own- ers and operators of private planes, Flying is rapidly becoming an amusement for the rich and a transportation necessity for the busi- ' ness man whose affairs are nation-wide or international in scope. Manufacture of planes already shows promise of developing into a major industry within the next decade.

Oswald Hayden, rector at Avening, Gloucester, guilty of swearing and using foul language, the Bishop of Glouces- ter has forbidden the rector to perform the ecclesiastical duties of his parish for two years. The commission had acquitted Rev. Mr. Hayden on charges of un- seemly conduet with the village school-mistress and .of frequent- ing taverns. The rector's church living will be sequestered and after making necessary payments and provid- ing a curate for Avening, the re- mainder of the income will be paid to the rector, provided that he leaves the village. In a letter to Rev. M., Hayden the bishop says that the language used in certain cases, and the oc- casions when it was employed, seemed to him shocking in a cler- gyman. He expressed the hope' that when the rectgr returns to Avening after the two years are up, he will be able to make a new start and that the past failures and enmities will be forgotten. The parish benefice is estimat- ed to be worth $4,250 annually, CATCHING WHEAT SPORES WITH FLYING MACHINES Ottawa, Ont, June 9.--Catching minute spores by aeroplane is the latest western sport. At least it has all the fascination of a new game, and the additional advan- tage of being of inestimable val- ue to the country, For some time past the De- partment of Agriculture has been making use of aeroplanes in an effort to combat wheat rust which appears in certain areas in Western Canada, particularly in Alberta, The method is at once interesting and unique. The fliers, including a technical expert in agricultural bacteriology, are pro- vided with sensitized plates which are exposed to the air. The spores of wheat rust, floating at high al- titudes, are caught on the plate and analyzed. The spores have been detected at a height of 5,000 feet, and the fliers have rua into clouds of these invisible organis- ims: which have registered as many as 5,000 to the centimeter. The spores float at an altitude and when there is a rain storm they are precipitated and thus the rust appears in widely separated areas and without any visible means of contact. The use of sem- sitized plates and the aeroplane has revealed how rust has spread in the past, and provides a means of checking one of the greatest menaces to the Western wheat crop.

THE WORLD LANGUAGE (Montrea] Gazette) It is estimated that there are over 200,000,000 people who speak English, and their distribution is world-wide. The British Isles, the United States of America, the Brit. ish Dominions and the American colonies alike have a tendency to extend the use of the vernacular; and as these two nations, the Brit- ish and the American, are the most active in the extension of their trade, their language will follow their trade. Consequently, it may be argued, by natural extension English will soon come to be spoken by a majority of the people of the world--will, in fact even- tually be adopted as the language of the universe.
