'REPRESENTATIVES IN U. 8, Powers and Stone, Inc, New York and Chicago: THURSDAY, MARCH 28, 1929 We GOOD NEWS FOR OSHAWA It is a long time since any announcement meant so. much to the people of Oshawa as that made today by H. A. Brown, general manager, and J. 8. Fraser, export manager of the General Motors of Canada, Limited, to the effect that the manufacture of Chevrolet cars for export to New Zealand, Egypt and Spain had been allotted to the Oshawa plant of the corporation, and that this business would keep the plant in operation practically all the year One of the great drawbacks to the poeple of Oshawa, in the last few years, has been the fact that the General Motors plant, of necessity, had to close its operations practically from October to January Or February, The addition of this large volume of export business, it is stated, will en- able the plant ot keep. running from October .to Décember on a fairly good volume of production, not sufficient, perhaps, to keep the staff up to what it- 1s at the peak of domestic 'production, but yet sufficient to enable a very large number of men to secure employment, The people of Oshawa will rejoice with the Gen- eral Motors of Canada that this export business. is coming to the local factory. : With the seasons in the Antipodes opposite to what they are in this country, the big demand for automobiles comes at a time when the manu- facturing of cars for Canadian consumption is slackening off. It would seem perfectly logical, therefore, that the slack 'season here, should be utilized for the building of cars for the export business 'to Antipodean countries, and if the full possibilities of this are developed, as they prob- ably will be, by the General Motors of Canada, Lim ited, a better day is in store for the people of Oshawa, a p---------- . THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE 4 ANNUAL MEETING The annual meeting of the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce, held last night, was distinguished' by sev eral features of importance." While: the attendance.' was large, it was by no means what it might have been for an occasion of such importance, and at least twits. as many eitizens might, with much profit to themselves and to the organization, have attended the meeting. There was not a great tendensy, dither, on the part of the rank and file of the mentbership to take past in the discussions, perhaps owing to the full nature of the program, and it might, with benefit, be possible to encourage in the membership of the board a stronger desire on the part of the average members to join in the active deliberations at such meetings. Matters of .importance to the city's" development should draw from the rank and file of the board ex: pressions of opinion to guide those who are elected as directors, and last night provided an' opportunity which a great many of those who were present over looked. ) * * * The meeting, however, had some features, of out-: standing interest. The report of the secretary, Leon Frazer, showed that, while definite and concrete re- sults had tot' been of great magnitude, the chamber had 'made considerable progress in its first year: of existence. As the secretary stated very frankly, much of the initial year's work lay in the laying of found- dations on which to build for the future, and there is every reason to believe, from his report, that these foundations have been well and truly laid. - This report, too, gave some of the reasons why it is not possible to secure new industries overnight. The cases cited of industrial inquiries showed the nature of some of the proposals which came before the board, and the citizens, from a study of 'the re- port, can well understand why it has not been possible to bring these, so far, to a successful conclusion, 'The board, however, is just as active, in protecting the city's interests as it is in digging for industrial pros. pects, and this service is worth a great deal to the: citizens as individuals who might be induced to invest in doubtful concerns, and' to the city as a whole. SEE Bich Wi Bix x x The endorsation given by the meeting to the pro- posal of the directors that a company be formed to construct buildings to be leased or sold to new in- fant. industries, was one. of the interesting features of the meeting. The directors, as intimated by G. D, Conant, the vice-president, who acted" as chairman in. the absence of George 'W. McLaughlin on account of sickness, cvidently felt that action of this kind was necessary to overcome the legislative ubjections to the city undertaking this work. While it is true that this. work should properly be doné by private investment, and that this is what is proposed by the directors of the chamber, it is «-also-true that there was need for 'initiative in the matter, and the probabilitics are that, had the Cham- . @s soon as- 1, the efforts of the Chamber of Commerce e fully effective in carrying out its objects ng the city's welfare, and assisting in its The. first, year's activities have shown nl bid is worth while, that. sch to build a greater and a bet- g d that it is wotthy of all the support citizens can give it: One can only express 'that this support. will be forthcoming in When it was announced some time ago that the 'rates for automobile insurance were to be increased, "The Times made a strong protest, and made the suggestion that the afitomobile companies were not accepting any share of the responsibility for. the prevention of automobile accidents. This suggestion has apparently found an echo.in the minds of those, who are inquiring into the whole subject of autompo- bile insurance rates, for the commision has decided to investigate the causes of automobile accidents, so. "as to find out how. & maximum of safety can be at- tained by motorists. . "This is 'w wise step, since it shows the insurance' . companies that they have a very large dad import. ant part to play in. reducing losses by automobile accidents. It would be profitable for them to go whole-heartedly into this investigation, and apply some Of its results to educationdl methods of help- ing the motorists to aveld accidents. It is quite a common thing for 'life insurance companies to conduct health gervices, with a view to cutting down their rate of lossés. The same principle might well be. applied, with equally profitable results, by those companies dealing in automobile insurance.

WHY THE RAPID INCREASE : IN WEIGHTS (As you know health writers are giving much advice on the dangers of overeating. .And the advice very naturally is along the line of diet. You are advised not to eat too much bread, pastry, potatoes, starches, of kinds. You are adyised also to' limit "the fat eaten, as this helps to make flesh by preventing wear and tear on the tissues of the body, You are also advised to limit the fluids, Now this is all good sense, but two other very essential factors en- ter into this matter, JJ was visiting in the country a few months ago, and remarked to. the farmer that a certain dozen pigs had put on considerable weight during the preceding few weeks, "Yes," he said, "they are sleeping a great deal now, and don't run around so much." "Why don't they run around so much 2" "Because they arc so heavy now that it tires them to move about, so they just eat and sleep, and are get- ting' heavy fast." Now this farmer said he was not feeding the pigs any more than he did when they were small, in fact was not feeding them quite as much and yet they were putting on weight at a more rapid rate than at any time previously. Why? Because they were now so heavy they didn't want to move around, and slept most of the time. 1 believe you sec the point clearly enough. You and I, if we are the weight gaining type, must remember that rest has exactly the same effect upon us as food. Even if we cut down on our food, and then rest all night and a good part of the day we can't expect to lose much weight as the body uses up only about one-fifth as much food stuff--food and oxygen--when we are lying down as when we are walking about doing some work, or taking exercise. You can readily see then how quickly weight can be cut off # in addition to cutting down eon our food we cut down on our hours of rest, and increase our hours of activity, Further, look at the muscular strength and increase in well being that comes by replacing fat with muscle.

Taking him to the beginning of it he pointed to a red lamp in the distance, and said: 2 "Your beat ends at the red lamp." The policeman was missing for two days before returning sore and weary to the police station, On being asked for an explanation | he exclaimed: "Do you remember the red lamp, - sergeant, that was at the énd of ma beat? Well, it was a flittin' gaun tae Dundee." HAVING A RACE | A man went to Canada, and took a high-priced wolfhound with him in order to get rich . by catching wolves, on which a high bounty was being paid. A wolf was seen, and the hound went after him.

"Yes, they just went by.' "How was tHe dace?" "Pretty hot, but the dog was a little ahead."

Legislature (By Canadian Press) Toronto, Mar. 28.--Too' much fishing has caused depletion of the fish supply in Lake Erie, according to the report of the provincial de-]" partment of game and fisheries, presented in the legislature. The report in part states: question is not yet conclusively an- swered, but concerning all of thé eastern end of the lake except its water near the shores, it has been | established that none of the causes usually described for 'the failure of the fisheries exist; the waters are pure and uncontaminated, bot- tom conditions are favorable, and there is an abundance of food for more fish than ever were known to be in the lake. "Concerning the general results of the survey, we can safely say that Lake Erie is capable of sup- porting as many open lake fish as ever. The depletion appears to have resulted from over-fishing and as such the remedy must lie in the hands of those legislative bodies having jurisdiction over the lakes."

Lady Robinson told the court that she did all her own house- work, including washing, scrubbng and cooking, and that the injury done to her hand seriously inter- fered with her household duties. Her general health has. also been impaired and she has heen oblig- ed to secure services of a general nurse to help her she stated.
