PAGE TWEL\ ARE UDHAWA DAILY 2 aeesn THURSDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1926 More Newspaper Comments on ~The Times' Greater Oshawa Edition OSHAWA'S RAPID GROWTH The Oshawa Daily Times issues a special edition of 112 pages--an extraordinary achievement, which symbolizes the progressive spirit of that community, and its almost unique progress. It is called a Greater Oshawa edition, because Oshawa has grown greater at a rate which must be the envy of many older cities. Its population has more than doubled in tem years, and it is now estimated at 25,000, It is a new city-- it was incorporated only four years ago--but an old settlement, In the vicinity a French trading post was established in the middle of the cighteenth century, and the first actual settler came in 1794. It antedates London, there- fore, by nearly a third of a cen: tury. By 1841 it had a populaiion of 3,000, and half a century later it had only 1,000 more. About 1900 it entered a period of steady growth but its great expansion has Rome since the war, It may be asked what are the causes of its unusual development when many other towns and villag- es whieh had as fair a start have declined. How has Oshawa resisted the trend to Toronto, which is onl¢ 30 miles distant?--London Adver- tser. GROWING PAINS The City of Oshawa has been much to the fore im recemt years, through the continual expansion of its automotive plants, headed by that of the Gemeral Motors Cor- poration. The Oshawa Daily Times the successor of the Oshawa Dally Reformer, is one with the city in experiencing growing pains. There has come to hand from the press of that paper, a special "Greater Oshawa' edition of 112 pages, splendidly designed, well laid out, and with a wealth of in- teresting reading matter and data in connection with the eity which claims to be the fastest growing in Canada. In fact, one can but regret that it will be ephemeral for, being on newsprint stock, and in the reg- ular newspaper size, it is not of a form likely to be long preserved Perhaps this was intentional, for with a record of growth hardly bet- tered by any of the smaller cities of Canada, Oshawa looks forward to still greater eypansion and is planning its development to that end. . The edition is proof of Oshawa's possession of an excellent commun- ity spirit, and there is further evi- dence that there is unity of purpose among its leaders, Given such, |tnere can be no reason for doubt as to its further growth, and the Oshawa Daily Times can rightfully look forward to expansion with the city. The Expositor, which during the past year, issued its own special commemorative edition, heartily commends the Times upon its initi- ative and the success which fol- lowed the ambitious task which it set itself.--Brantford Expositor. A FINE SPECIAL EDITION The "Greater Oshawa" edition of the Oshawa Times, is a wonderfully well contrived number, It seems to have been a community effort, dir- ected by the management of the Times, with a view to giving wide publicity to the development of the city of Oshqwa. The edition con- sists of 112 pages, and is profusely illustrated, not only with views of the industrial and business build- ings of the city, but of fine resi- dences and parks and schools. It is a portrait gallery of the men who are working to put Oshawa on the map, with an immence number of portraits of its public and business men. Fort William people will re- cognize a former business man of this city in C. C. Stenhouse, who contributes to the edition an article upon the harmony and design which are being applied to make Oshawa beautiful as well as industrially important among Canadian cities. The staff of the Times is to be com- plimented upon the excqllence of the material and presswork of this edition.--Fort William Times-Jour- coal bills by using TEN/TEST, the perfect Insulating Building Board that keeps the heat in your house and the cold out.
