TORONTO OFFICE «07 Bond Building, 66 Temperance Street, Teles phone Adelaide 0107. H. D. Tresiddev, repre. sentative, REVRESENTATIVES IN U.S. L.--=Pcwers and Stone, Inc, New York and Chicago, FRIDAY, JULY 20, 1928 TEED THE ENDURING HOUSE Our nature cries out after permanence, whether it be for personal immortality or for long life to our deeds and writings and possessions, War is made upon these things by rust and decay and by the prodigal de- struction in nature that makes room con- stantly for new life to come. The human heart alone denies the law of death, asking for itself and the things it cherishes the favour of long endurance, Immortality is for this reason the most cherished doctrine of human creeds and one in which savage and civilized man have com- mon faith, We believe in immortality not alone from conviction or faith but also be- cause of the deep-seated hunger of the hu- man heart for an enduring existence, In greater or less degree we shape all things of our life for a tomorrow and are guided more by future hopes than by past experi-. ences, As we build our homes for long pos- session and seek after a name that will en- dure, so we fashion our lives in the hope and contemplation of immortality. DANGER IN TIRES It has been pretty definitely established that the rear right tire is the first to wear "out, the rear left next, the front right next and the front left last of all. As a result, practice has become almost general to shift the worn out rear tires to the front wheels with the idea of evening up the wear. This, however, is dangerous. When a worn tire blows out on a rear wheel, while the car is traveling at a high rate of speed, the driver still has enough control of the front wheels to guide the car safely out of a dangerous skid, When, however, a front tire lets go, and the car is moving fast, there is almost noth- ing the driver can do. The steering is thrown out of his control, the car is forced . into a serious skid and there is great possi- bility of injuries to all in the car. Rather leave a worn out tire on a rear wheel, even though it will wear down so much faster, than risk the dangers that go with changing it to the front. For greater safety, however, a tire that shows the first mark of a tread worn down to the fabric should be taken off and used only as a spare. THE EXCEPTION Some of the things printed in a newspaper are as disagreeable to the newspaper itself as to the sincere critics who would prefer "to see less or none of the so-called "scandal" news. But in the performance of what it conceives to be its duty to print the news, the publications at times like the judge on the bench are confronted with unpleasant obligations. There can be no justification for a news- paper that in cold-blood panders to the low- er instincts of its readers or peddles filth and . obscenity. Not many newspapers do this and none that do would admit it. It is a question whether the worst victim of such publicity is not the medium through which it reaches the public. - Much by way of earnest criticism has been said of newspaper publicity of crime. It has never been satisfactorily proved that news of crime begets crime. As a matter of fact the evidence is rather that there is no con- nection between them. It is possible that some person may get a wrong slant on domestic relations by the news of divorce cases, but this slant will not prevail outside of shallow thinkers, for to all others it must be apparent that in most in- stances it is only the unusual that gives events the distinction of news. If all domestic life were corrupt and de- cadent, there would be mo news value in chronicling domestic misfortune, It is be- cause the vast majority of marriages are successes that the overwhelming number of homes are wholesome, that the vast bulk of people are law abiding and good citizens that the exceptions assume news value. No-apology is made for newspaper indis- cretions in the selection of printable news and still less for deliberate exploitation of unsavery events, but for those who deduce from publication of unpleasant things that the world is going to pot, there is the com- forting thought that quite the reverse is true because in the main it is the exception and not the rule that has news value, HARMLESS SUPERSTITION More people are superstitious than one ordinarily might think, Many people say they are not superstitious when they are; they will not admit it, but, nevertheless, these same people will not, walk under a lad- der and they have a queer feeling whenever a black cat crosses their path--that is, many of them do. Then, again, there are many people who are superstitious and do not know it; they are led this way and that way, unconscious. ly, by some little faith they cannot account for in something they know nothing about. Well, after all, what harm is done? What would there be to Hallowe'en if it were not for superstition? What would there be to the average wedding if it were not for the little superstitions that the bride and her attendants have about it all--what would there be to a wedding, aside entirely from the sacredness of the ceremony, if it were not for these things? The world gradually is outliving the super- stitions that vexed it and caused much un- happiness, but there are some superstitions that we never want to outlive--the super- stitions that make for joy and call for more of the kind that can do no harm, EDITORIAL NOTES What Europe needs is more brains and less arms, Work isn't as much fun as loafing, but you get more for it, A married man remembers when he used to envy married men, Eye-brow styles will soon develop into merely dotting the eye. Don't exercise on a full stomach. must exercise, do it standing, If you Oil eliminates. friction, except in the ma- chinery of international relations. The good die young, so no one ever knows whether they would have remained good. A business man tells us he is entitled to life, liberty and the pursuit of a golf ball, Wouldn't is be a heap of fun if you could live up to your ideals without using any en- ergy? Figures may not lie, but many a queer proposition is put over by a judicious selec- tion of statistics, Bit of Verse A LITTLE BACK The little houses that set back A little from the dust and din, And yet that welcome never lack, For every gateway shouts "Come in!"-- 0, I would be like houses are And show a little sympathy, From others not removed too far, Yet wear a little dignity. I would not mix in every strife, I would not follow every crowd, But live upon the edge of life, Be not too common mor too proud. I would not rush to every fray, And follow every pounding drum, But be a house beside the way Where those who care to come may come. Yes, I would dwell a bit apart, That I may better serve mankind, That here the weary mind and hear' Perhaps may peace and comfort find. I would not lead the grand attack, Nor all life's battles aim to win, But be a house a little back Where every gateway shouts "Come in!" --Douglas Malloch THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, JULY 20, 1928 LIN 9% sunoet CHERBOURG, COBM, ANTWERP, HAMBURG GLASGOW, BELFAST, + Montnairn Montroyal Montrose Metagama The Empresses, Montroyal and Mont. nairn sail from Quebec; all other steam- ships sail from Montreal, Apply Local Agents or J. B PARKER, General Agent, hone ADelaide 2105 by Bldg, Torente, OTTAWA BROKER FACES CHARGES Charles Thomas Will Be Arraigned on a Fraud Count Ottawa, July 18.--Charles A Thomas, aged 32, broker, was ar- rested here to-night by the Ot- tawa police, acting on instructions from Hon. W, H, Price, Attarney- General of Ontario. Thomas is charged with a breach of the new Security Frauds Prevention Act, and the case against him, it is un- derstood, is one of the first taken under the new legislation, Thomas has oftices in a large uptown office huilding, operating under the firm name of C. A, Thomas & Company, Limited, Thomas was arrested at Aylmer, near Ottawa, where he has heen spending the summer. He was taken to the police station, where he spent the night, and will he arraigned tomcrrow morning in Police Court. A remand for a week will be asked for hy the Crown. The arrest follows the visit here on Saturday last of Arthur W, Rogers, Legal Secretary of the De- partment of the /ttorney-General it Toronto. Thomas had made application under the new Ontario act for registration as a broker. In h's upplication he made the statement that he had not previously heen convicted for fraud or theft, it is on this statement that the charge which led up to his arrest was laid, ONLY SMALL STOCKS NOW HELD AT BORDER Windsor, July 18.-- some of the larger liquor export- ers and all of the "small fry" ob- erators are still doing business from their warehouses, the stocks nn hand have heen cut by at least 75 per cent., as compared with the vast accumulation of whiskey and beer, with whjch the warehouses fairly bulged at the time the raids were made on the docks of the Erie Transit and Nathanson Com- panies a week ago. Should the Ontario Liguor Con- trol Board carry out its threat to make further seizures, as annoupec- ed today in despatches from Tor- onto, the police will find little 1i- quor to seize. for most of the ex- porters have been clearing out their stocks as fast as possible. As a matter of fact." the restrictions placed on the Erie and Nathan- son people by their docks being watched by the police have given the smaller operators an oppor- tunity to "make hay while tne sun shines," and they are taking full advantage. Counsel for the Erie and Nath- janson companies today denied re- ports emapating fromr a Toronto source, that they planned to ask the Liquor Control Board to re- turn the liguor under seizure here. The legal advisers for the two con- cerns said they had not yet deter- mined on the courge of action to be taken. They explained that the section of the Liquor Control Act, under which the raids were made, gives them 30 days to present their claim, and a further three days in which to take a stated case to Magistrate here, if that method is decided on.

INCREASED EXP EXPORT TRADE PREDICTED Canadian Commissioner to Germany on Maritime Tour Saint John, N.B., July 19.--Can- ada's export trade with Germany will he greatly increased, under favorable treaty agreements, which the Dominion is endeavoring to e:- tablish with that country, said Max P. Palmer, of Calgary, newly-ap- pointed Assistant Canadian Trade Commissioner tn Hamburg, who spent Tuesday here in connection with a tour of the Maritime Prov- inces with a view to developing Maritime export trade with Ger- many. In speaking of Canada's trade conditions with Germany, Mr Palmer stated that at the present time Canada is discriminated against as a result of existing agreements, which particularly effected the export of flour as well as other commodities. Should the trade treaties heing advanced hy the Canadian Government g9 through successfully, Mr. Palmer is of the opinion that flour would lead Canada's export list to Ger- nany. Today Mr. Palmer leaves for Halifax where he will intervie v heads of large export concerns in that city. CHARLES LEVINE WRECKS AIRPLANE Atlantic Plier Stages Series of Unparalleled Air Gymnastics Curtss Field, L.I., July 19.-- Charles A. Levine, the first trans- Atlantic © air passenger, wrecked his monoplane Columbia, tore down a fence, caused a near-panic among air field attaches, and se- verely damaged his standing as # pilot in a series of unparalleled air gymnastics here Tuesday night. Despite one of the most amaz- ing three-minute flights on r2c- ord, neither Levine nor his com- panion, "Major" Fleming, were in jured severely, Levine cracked-up his ocean monoplane when landing, but the fireworks started before the plaue had left the ground. In fact, Lea- vine had to lift his craft quickly to prevent wrecking it on the take-off, Spectators reached the erumpled monoplane just in time to see Le- vine push his way out of the wreckage. He glanced around rather nervously and said: "ell, ha! ha! My take-off was 'otten but---ha! ha!---my landing w~8 worse!" Levine, who threw Croydon air- drome into a panic last year when he circled and wobbled to a l:nd- ing there after flying his plane ecrocs the Channel on one of his first attempts at piloting, reached the field about dusk. Major Flem- ing climbed in beside him--the major is a brave man according to his own confession--and they made a highly soccessful rhn half way down the field. Then the Columbia started wob- bling and broke into a series of twists and. turns which would bave done credit to a Kansas cy- clone.
