AHELPING HAND It hasibeén noticed by.many citizens that the exca- vation' work sen the new Parts and Service building being erected by' The General Motors of Canada, Limited, is being done by hand labor, instead of by * the more modern method of using a steam shovel. It may' be, of course, that there is an-economic reason " for that. We arc not competent to judge which is the cheaper and speedier method, but we can judge of the benefit which is being conferred on many fam- "ilies in Oshawa by the use of this method, The num- ber of men employed is many' times what it would be "% were mechanical methods used, and:this employment is very welcome at this time of the year in Oshawa. * Whether intentional or not, the General Motors has « adopted a policy. for which: the company deserves credit, and which might well be emulated by other 2% c@hterns having it in their power to undertake work whith can. be made to give employment to a large & 4 of: men, "THE MODERN CANADIAN HOME The Rev. Father Kingsley, Roman Catholic: Chap- lain of the Portsmouth Penitentiary, gave voice to a scathing indictment of the niodern Canadian. home in BB an address to the mecting' of the Prison Chaplain's _ Association i in Toronto the ther day. . Speaking from 24 his experience, as, the spiriflial adviser ©f Criminals, +o he said that eighty per centof the nien and women ¥Z who are in prison: today are there because of the failure of their parents and their homes to give them the proper start in life. From that point, Father, Kingsley went on to a severe arraignment of nigra, home conditions, as follows :™ so % ¥ THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1929 S------------ a duction of :@ worthy publication, sands whieh-produce honest;-reliable and law-abiding citizens, "Such homes are the common thing in this country, and even although they may be a little different from what they were two or three decades ago, they'are stili=producing boys and:girls: who-can be compared favorably with any in the world, It is easy to make a general'gondemnation of home conditions when one is face to face with criminals ddy in and day out, as Father Kingsley is, But it is not so casy to justify df when one "looks over the schools, the churches, and the. streets upon streets of real homes to be found im every city: of the Dominion, and realizes that the parents in 'them 'afe doing their duty to their children tothe best of their God-given ability. And it should also be 'remembered that it is only where there is criminal "abnormality that wrong conditions are disclosed; and that the millions of people who go about their busiriess. as industrious and self-respecting citizens do' not need to have the reasons for their respectability afalyzed. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS' PROGRESS A significant little item appeared in the "Twenty- Five Years Ago" column of The Toronto Globe on Tuesday, September 24. It only occupied three lines of type, and was almost hidden: away in a corner of The Globe's editorial page, "Yet it told, in a few words, a story of the marvellous progress which has been made by the Canadidn'® west inl the last twenty- five years. The item read" as follows: "Sept. 24, 1904--The first car of fall wheat ever received in the Winnipeg market has been received for inspection, It came from Alberta," ' Nothing could illustrate better' the. growth of wheat growing in Canada than a comparison of that brief paragraph with the production of modern times. The Canada Year Book for 1929, which, incidentally, was received in The Times office just as this para< graph was being scanned, shows that in 1928 there were 819,028 acres of fall wheat grown in this coun- . try, producingia crop of well over twenty million bushels, Thus, within twenty-five years of the first production of fall wheat in the west, it has become a great factor in the prosperity of the country, One can, alsp go farther, ;and say that this can also 'be used as a' means of comparison. for spring wheat ang" other grains, The production of which has grown proportionately in the same period. It is within the last quarter of a century, in fact, that the prairies of Canada have become the Bread basket of the world. When one considers this phenomenal growth in twenty-five years, it is hard to fully vis- ualize what the growth will be in the 'mext twenty- five, but if it' continues at 'the same rate of progress, the prosperity which will result is almost inconceiv- able, A VETERAN RETIRES ~Considerable interest is attached to the retirement from journalistic life of J. Innes McIntosh, the pub- lisher of the Guelph Mercury, which changed hands this week. After being associated with that newspaper since 1862, first as a boy employee, and for the last thirty-one years as its publisher, Mr, McIntosh has retired to enjoy the rest which he so fully deserves. Mr, McIntosh ig one of the few surviving journal- ists of tha#fine.gld school which retained a personal contact with thgipeople of the communities served, and put heart and soul and mind fully into the pros In his valedictory message, wiittenifrom a. bed of sickness, he" shows that it is without Pegrét that"he is laying down his pen andl retiffig to private life. His story of the history of the Guelph Mercury shows that it was part of himself through the long years during which he guided its destinies, Mr. McIntosh will be missed by his colleagues of the journalistic life of Ontario, who will'join in wish- ing that his. health may be restored so that hc can fully enjoy his ycars of well-earned rest. RURAL AND URBAN EDUCATION Much has been heard in recent yéars, and much more will be héard in the next five weeks, regarding the merits of roral cducation, as compared with that in the urban centres. It has been claimed that the children in the rural districts are at a disadvantage as compared with those in the towns and cities, since' they have poorer school facilities, and do not attend school so regularly. Definite, proof of the extent to which this is true is given in a statement prepared by R. H. Coates, Dominion statistician, in which he gives the propor tion of children not attending school in the rural district and in the urban centres, For the province of Ontario, his study shows that 6.35 per cent of the children in the urban centres are not attending school, while in the rural districts, 10.34 per cent are not attending school, This shows conclusively that there is some truth in the assertion that rural children are handicapped in educational facilities -as compared with those in the towns and cities; It 'is unfortunate that this should be so, for sutcly the rural children have just as much right to a good education: as those who, by circumstances, live in the urban centres. This pre- sents a problem which is difficult of solution, but which should provide room for much discussion dur- ing the clegtion campaign, oe EDITORIAL NOTES pi bo ---- Isn't it strange that no one has as yet issued a manifesto to capture the women's vote?

HOLIDAYS WITH PAY (Ottawa Journal) Shopmen émployed on the Temis- kaming and Northern Ontario Rail- way have just enjoyed their first an- nual week's holiday with pay. They are the first railway shopmen on the American continent to secure holi- days with pay as the result of direct negotiations between their organiza- tion and the management. True, shopmen on the Canadian National have enjoyed this privilege for the past two years, but with the National the holidays were granted as a re- ward for the results accruing from the successful operation of the union management co-operative policy. The T.and N., O.is a publicly-owned railway' and by the granting of one week's holidays annually with pay to its shop mechanics the management has introduced consideration for hu- man welfare into the railway indus- try. STRAW HATS AND COTTON STOCKINGS (Ottawa Journal) What has happened to the struw hat in: Ottawa? In other years this form 'of headgear was fairly popular. For a time it gave way to the pana- ma, but regained its popularity, and up to this past summer had many vic- tims. We use the word "victims" ad- visedly. For the straw hat, as we re- member. it, was next to a starched white coflar, the 'most atrocious form of dress tyranny to which a spineless human being could subject himself. It was terrible. We never quite un- derstood who or what dictated styles. All that we guessed was that they were due to unseen influence lacking in both pity and sense. However, somebody or something has decreed the passing of the straw hat--and it's a blessing. We only hope that it be- comes as obsolete as cotton stockings for women, Bits of Humor JUST AS WELL, PERHAPS Actor -- The: audience once Maugehd so heartily at one of my comedy presentations that they held their sides, and when they left the theatre they were all bent double.

On, on, she rides the skies about Sending her light on earth below By James W. Barton, M.D. A HE-MAN "A he-man is one who dies early because a little germ or a little ex- posure can't scare a guy like him." The above 'was in a humorous col- umn entitled "Isn't it the truth?" And as a matter of fact many of our most powerful men physically have done just that very foolish thing of feeling that a germ or exposure to extremes of weather could not af- fect strong men like themselves, When the body is extremely tired and the weather is damp and hot, or damp and cold, then organisims already in the body, or which get into the body from, the outside, be- gin to give trouble, Now it is a tremendous advantage to have a good strong body at this time as it enables you to give the or- ganisims a real battle. However, the one organ that de- cides whether or- not the battle is to be won is your heart. If it has plenty of reserve then you will likely fight off the trouble. During the Flu epidémic it was duly stated that this ailment attack- ed the strong and vigorous in a more deadly manner than it did those that were of poor physique; and that was why so many strong individuals died. Now why did so many of these strong young men die? Sometimes for the reason stated a- bove that they are not going to let * little germ scare guys like them," he sometimes they went about on their feet for one, two and even three days before they finally gave in and went, or were put, to bed, Why did so many of them die? Because they used up the heart "reserve" and to make matters worse kept using the heart to keep them around on their feet when the heart needed cvery bit of its strength to fight the invading organisims, Because, as stated above, the heart does about five times as much work when vou are walking about on your feet as it does when you are lying quietly in bed. You can readily sce then, that an individual who is not very strong and has to go to bed sooner than the stronger one, has often a better chance than the he-man who refuses to go to bed. Don't be foolish and fight off un illness with your strong will. Getl' § right to bed and give your heart its best 'chance to fight for you. It's the heart that has to do the fighting: (Registered in accordance with the Copyright Act.) SEEK RESTORATION OF ANCIENT RIGHTS Indians Base Plea Against Hunting Restriction on 1763 Proclamation Sudbury, Sept. 20--Secking restor- ation of their ancient rights and privileges in the forests where once their forefathers reigned supreme, chiefs and delegates from all the principal Indian reservations of Nor- thern Ontario are meeting in Sud- bury at a genéral council to prepare memorials which they will present to the Federal government. Old treaties and agreements, some dating back more than 200 years, are being reviewed by the Indian leaders in support of claims which they intend to press regarding their hunting and fishing rights. Treaty rights of the famous Christian Island Indians are also being considered by the chiefs in council, The Indian leaders point out that their people arc nearly 20 Oyears be- hind their white neighbors in de- velopment and education and that the yare unfitted to live a modern civilized life yet. They arc forced to depend on the game and fish in the forest and streams for their liveli- hood and trapping is practically their only source of revenue. The 216-year-old treaty of Utrecht is invoked to show that at that time Great Britain guaranteed the rights of the Indians to follow their natural method of living. The proclamation of King George II, in 1763, contain- ed a further guarantee, it is claimed, and treaties made with the various bands when their lands were ceded also reaffirmed their rights, Pre- serving the ancient idea of fidelity the the Indians consider that "a promise made is a debt unpaid," and are prepared to rest their case on the old agreements. 8 ropie-ForLoNG 5G -- "Hond Office: Reford Butding ~ STS.
