WEDNESDAY, JULY 17, 1929 NO REASON FOR PESSIMISM It is unfortunate that there.are those people " Oshawa who, during the scasonal fluctuations of w ork in the eimy's largest industry, indulge ne gloom} Fev: eries, and jump to the hasty conclusion that fhe city is going to the dogs. Every city, of Bourse, bas its pessimists. In some places, they keep quie 3 their forebodings trouble only themselves. In ot os they spread their gospel of gloom to anyone y 8 will listen 'to them, and the result is that a fec ing of despondency is liable to permeate the comamnity This is a bad thing for any community, particularly when, as in the casc of Oshawa, there is no gotid foundation for it. Those people who have most faith in their city, know that in the type of industry which is so strongly established here, there are bound to be scasonal ups and downs, periods when production drops below the peak. It always has been so, and it always will until such time as twelve months in the year production at full speed is possible. In spite of this, however, there is no reason i pessimism regarding Oshawa's future, or "even its present. Perhaps the city has experienced such rapid growth that the pessimists are disappointed that the rate of expansion has not been maintained at its speed of a few ycars ago. But Oshawa is still grow- ing, its industries arc expanding their interests, and providing for higher production in many lines that will give employment to ever-increasing numbers of for men and women. : : There is no abiding place in Oshawa for the pessi- mists. What the city nceds is a body of citizens of vision, who can sec beyond the immediate present, "illustrate this very point H who was visiting London at the time of the general | Gg 4 ENE " : oo . and remarks that this was'one of the most thrilling experiences of the whole tour. . There is.a Wealth i ing in that littlesdescrip- tive bliin "The British are a free ing people, imbued with the true spirit of 'democracy, yet Britishers of?all classes are ready ta be thrilled merely : there be anything by a sight of their monarch. Could' to demonstrate more clearly the affection whicl is showered upon theft sovereign by the "people of the Preptier Ferguson has a story 'which he tells to 'of an' American strike of three years ago. As he stood on a London street, the king passed by, and. the American noted with surprise that crowds of the strikers, lining the streets, raised their hats as the royal 'carriage passed by. ~ Seeking' an explanation from a bytander, he was led to-a group, of stril ers, and the question was asked of them why they had shown this mark of respect to the king when they were on strike, ap- parently against all constituted authority. The answer came without hesitation, and one can imagine the emphasis which the London workman would put on.it, as he said: "Why, you bloke, that's the king." There is a wealth of meaning in that brief but ex- pressive reply. The king stands for all that the British Empire stands for, and that is why Britishers, both of the homeland and from the dominions over the seas, still count it an enviable thrill to see the . king pass by. THE VALUE OF BEAUTIFUL PARKS The Orillia Packet and Times, in a patriotic vein, waxes eloquent regarding the beauty of its civic park on the short of Lake Couchiching, and heralds it as a great asset to the community. The Orillia news- paper has every right to do so, for its statement that the park is one of the most beauiful to be found anywhere, can hardly be successfully challenged. Its beauties attract thousands of visitors to the town, and that means much to a town the size of Orillia. This, however, providés an object lesson to all other communities, be they city or town. Most places nowadays boast of public parks, but in many cases their beauty is neglected in favor of their utility for recreational' purposes. Yet parks should serve both purposes. Their utility as recreation grounds will make them popular with their own people, and will often attract picnic parties from a distance. But to the people who are touring the country, in search of beauty spots, the beauty of a park is often the main consideration, and they gravitate naturally to the points which have the repu- tation for something out-standing in the way of beautiful parks. It is not suggested, of course, that Oshawa has no parks of beauty, but a word to the wise, suggesting that there is always room for improvement, is not out of place, WAR CLOUDS ON THE HORIZON Once again the menace of war has appeared on the horizon in the Orient. News despatches from both China and Soviet Russia indicate that there are grave possibilities in the sitmation which caused Russia to issuc a three days ultimatum to China. The whole situation has developed so quickly that it is not casy to sift the chaff from the wheat, and to point to the conditions whigh have caused it. As in many other wars, control ofthe railway facilities in the disputed arca seems to be at the root of the trouble, but as is often. the case in the Orient, there may be decper causcs which are not so clearly apparent on the surface. | of a necessity.

Barton, M.D. ~ WHEN BIG MEALS CAUSE TROUBLE Perhaps as you sit at your desk and see some workman on the street doing heavy labor, you are thankful that you are able to earn your liv- ing in an easier manner. And yet as you go out fo lunch or home to dinner you are not par- ticularly hungry, and if you have had a hard day in the office the most sumptuous meal does not in- terest you. Why? Because there are three parts about the eating and digesting of food and you lose out on all three of them. ~ The first part is the brain part, that is the smell, taste, and the sight of food. You are so tired and wor- ried and have so many other things on your mind that the most inviting food doesn't tempt you. The second part of digestion is due to the fact that the food, the weight of the food, sets the stomach mus- cles contracting, and there are chem- ical substances in the food, or the stomach juice acts on these foods, and causes a chemical change. The third part is when the food has left the stomach, and there is a chemical action taken place between the food and the digestive juices of the small intestine. Now although the second and third parts of digestion apparently haye nothing to do with the brain, never- theless if you are worried or tired the brain doesn't send down impulses to the stomach and intestine as often, or as regularly, as when you are rested or free from care. "Worry, nerve strain, sensations markedly lessen the manu- facture of juice in the stomach, and cause disturbances of the movement of the stomach and intestines." Now. the point is, if you are an outdoor worker, or play much out- unpleasant | | | doors, you don't have to think of | any of these three parts of digestion; | they take care of themselves. However as Dr. A, C. Ivy says "the office or indoor worker must be taught to think of their food and pleasant things while eating, to eat lightly of easily digested food prior and during a day of business worry, mental or nervous strain, and eat a big meal only when the meal can be followed by several hours of leisure and melaxation."

The A SPORTING APPEAL The appeal which has been made by Mayor Mit- chell to the sporting enthusiasts of the city to sup- port the Oshawa Nationals soczer football team in its quest for dominion championship honors is a timely one. The Nationals have a magnificent record this season, and they are the first of the city's sporting organizations to engage in competition for final championship honors. In their games with the Mon- treal C.N.R,, they have a formidable task ahead, one in which the support of the citizens will count for much. . The Nationals might easily have chosen the easy path, financially, by playing both their final games in Montreal, thereby ensuring that they would' have no financial obligations to mcct. But they believed they had a duty to the people of Oshawa, and so they insisted on one of the games being played in this city, even though it meant making a guarantee of about $750.00. The sorting enthusiasts of Oshawa should show their appreciation of this sacrifice made on their be- half, as well as of the sterling record of the Na- tionals, by turming out in. full force to cheer their champiofis on to victory im their important game next 'Monday night. Tt was a sporting act'on the part of the city council to guarantee the expenses of the game, but it would be a much better thing if the citizens turn out in sufficient numbers $6 enable the Nationals to meet expenses without calling on the council for any contribution, THE GREATEST THRILL One episode described in the letter from Mis. C. M. Munday, describing parts of her tour of 'Britain and Europe, as it appeared in last night's issue of The Times. stands out as significant. In that letter, she tells of hurrying scross London along with ethers, and being thrilled by a sight of the King and Queen as they passed along the streets of the capital city, 3 1g to work for its future development, little : a well-organized enemy. Under these circumstances, it is not too much to suppose that 'Moscow has been waiting and watching, just as a cat watches a mouse, and has scized what seems to be a favorable moment for making drastic demands. And the manner in which troops are being moved to the Siberian border would indicate that there is a serious and dangerous pos- sibility of war. No one wants to see war in any part of the world today. Strife involving European Russia and Oriental China. might quite possibly provide another torch to set the world aflame, and-if there are influences any- where in the world which can be brought to beat on these two nations, it is imperative that they be exerted at once before matters reach the stage of open hostilities, EDITORIAL NOTES The time has now arrived for June brides to invest in can-opencrs. ?

Men and women on the farm are entitled to leisure hours for recreation and cultural devel- opment. Electricity has demonstrated by its use where it is available in the country that much of the drudgery incident to farm work may be elim- inated by taking advantage of what electricity offers. Bringing electricity to the farms offers many intricate problems, but these problems should be studied by all of the parties interested, to the end that the greatest utiliza- tion of this modern boon to man- kind may be available for the rural sections to the same extent as it in urban localities. Careful study of the prob- lems involved in bringing elec tric power to the farms will prove to all parties at interest its feasible application to agri- culture. SCOTTISH MEMORIAL SERVICE AT BOSTON Boston, July 17.--~The annual me- morial service of the Grand Clan of Massachusetts, Order of Scottish Clans, included a street parade and impressive services at the First Pres- byterian Church.
