TORONTO OFFICR 407 Bond Building, 46 Temperance Street, Teles phone Adelaide 0107, H. D, !fresiddev, repre REPRESENTATIVES IN U.S. Powers and Stone, Inc, New York and Chicago, FRIDAY, AUGUST 31, 1928 TET | OSHAWA AND THE FIRE RISK | Fire has ever been the world's most potent agent of destruction, It has caused more loss of life, greater material damage, than all the wars of all time, It remains our greatest menace in spite of the precaution- ary measures adopted in later years by an awe-stricken and compulsorily enlightened civilization, In the observation of safety measures, the price of relaxation is disaster, The tragedy of the Hollinger mine is a re- cent example, Fire risk admits of no com- promise; exacts sudden and fearful penalty for ignorance of its code or neglect of its provisions, The sad fatality at, Toronto which cost four lives not only touches the heart-strings, but brings home to all of us our individual share of a responsibility which is common to humanity and excludes from its charge not a single man, woman or child, Upon the authorities it impresses the need for a rigid enforcement of regulations known to provide an adequate measure of safety; upon the public it impresses the need for that eternal vigilance which alone is the price of safety, The lesson differs only in the manner of its application, In centres of rapid growth, such -as Osh- awa, the safeguarding of human life and public property is of transcendent import. ance, The great progress we are making is. a matter of justifiable pride, but it is in- cumbent upon us to pause once in a while to make quite sure that the quality of our enterprise is commensurate with the extent of our undertakings, that we are keeping abreast of the requirements of safe and ~sound legislation in every field, that we are ineuleating in new arrivals a wholesome respect for their responsibility to the com- munity, that we are restraining our chil- dren from mischief and carelessness, im- parting to them an intelligent appreciation of all that fire risk implies, In one outstanding respect the public is lacking, There is altogether too general a tendency to shelve personal responsibility-- to defer criticism of inadequate protection until after a fire has occurred--to pass the buck to the architect, builder, local authori- * ties--to anybody who will accept it. This' attitude is f ntally wrong, The time to look to the security of the stable is while the horse is still there. The time to make sure that the house or apartment, office premises or store building affords a safe and means of speedy egress in case of fire is before it is occupied, before a single cent ture has been incurred by way otherwise, quality of self-reliance is call- into play. One's own judgment must be deciding factor in the matter of life and for those nearest and dearest to him, RL ARV: Fis organized, as the duties of the police preservation of the peace apprehension of evil-doers.

"GO YE INTO ALL THE WORLD . ..." With the approach of their Harvest Festi- val services the Salvation Army are making their annual appeal for funds. The cause is one of the worthiest in the calendar and it js safe to predict a gener- ous response from the people of Oshawa-- always ready to do their share and more in the performance of good works, Whatever their creed, all Christian people are agreed on the good work of the Salva. tion Army. We acknowledge our indebted- ness to the Army not only for its remark- able salvaging of human wreckage, but also for its far-reaching and inestimable moral and spiritual influence, The Salvation Army stands out as the greatest miracle of organization the world has ever known, In rather more than sixty years it has grown from an east-end London mission to a world-wide movement in which millions of people, speaking scores upon scores of tongues, are enlisted under the banner of Jesus Christ, Here in Canada the work of the Salvation Army has prospered beyond common know- ledge and general appreciation. The Army is the common dispenser of the Gospel to the common people, Its message is heard in the highways and byways, penetrates to obscure lumber camps, heartens the track- layer, reaches down to those who delve for the riches of the earth, echoes across the frozen stretches of the Northland, One is readily convinced that the Salvation Army is a special instrument of divine Providence, One comes to a fuller understanding of the expressed belief that "God moves in a my- sterious way His wonders to perform." The world today is a better world for the Salvation Army, Who can tell what this great organization has accomplished for hu- manity in the suppression of crime, the re- demption of men, women and children, the diversion of destructive energy to construc. tive purposes, The most confirmed infidel would have to concede the value of such work to the community at large, apart al- together from any question as to the value of the souls saved in a religious sense, Thus the Salvation Army is a great and universal power for good, It commands our support as law-abiding citizens and the ready co-operation of those who profess to believe in Christ and try to do His works, One recalls the parable of the wedding feast from which so many invited guests excused themselves, It is for us to decide whether to make excuses or to align our- selves actively on the side of those who are going out into the byways and hedges and compelling the wanderer to coms in, "AU PLAISIR DE VOUS REVOIR!" Today we are honoured with the visit of one hundred and fifty representatives of the Chamber of Commerce of the Province of Quebec -- a special departure from their main purpose of attending the Canadian Na- tional Exhibition, One may be sure that the development of the bonne entente will be much in evidence at the dinner which is to be held this even- ing in the Auditorium of General Motors, Our own enterprising Chamber, with com- mendable vision, is making the most of an excellent opportunity to encourage a spirit of unity which is essential to a realization of the best interest of both provinces, and the entire community joins in the spirit of the gathering. In the Province of Quebec, Canada furn- ishes an illustrious example of a dual lang- uage and separate traditions fused in the common aim of a country's progress. An effort which serves to unite the French- and English-speaking elements in the cause of mutual helpfulness and advancement is a contribution of inestimable value to the de- velopment of both the Dominion and the Empire. It is to be hoped that this affair will be the forerunner/of much similar enterprise and that the constructive influence of per- sonal contact will be manifested in an ap- preciable impetus to social and business in- tercourse. Bit of Verse Re KEEP ON! ' Then take this honey for the bitterest cup: There is no failure, save in giving up; No real fall so long as one still tries, For seeming setbacks make the strong man wise; No real defeat can come save from within-- If you have conquered there You're bound to win!
