Pty Sere by carrier, ea » wook rh a REPRE Povore and Stone, | "WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1929 THR COMMUNITY WELFARE FUND Oshawa has becomes aceustonfed to doing big things in & big way, In this respect, it has a repu- tation to maintain, And, in the present appeal which is being made for the Wellsve. Work and Christmas Cheer Fund, Ye citizens aré being given an oppor- tunity to live up to that reputation As was announced In yedterday's Issue of The &hmes, It lias been decided t& gombine the welfare work of the Oshawa Associated Wellare Soeleties with that of the Christmas Cheer Fund Committee, and to make one appeal for & combined fund which will be sufficient to meet the present needs of the situation Jn Oshawa, This deglsion was made only after a review of the situation, bringing a realiza- tlon that any hall measures would be wseless, and that a tremendaus effort must be, put forth to raise the funds which will be needed, not only for the Christmas Cheer distribution, hut for the supplying of the necessities of life to the hundreds of families which will be in distress until Industrinl® conditions improve in the city, "Where are two outstanding reasens why this step hap been deemed necessary, The first is that the need for relief endeavor by the associated societies ex- iste-today and cannot walt until Christmas to be sat- isfied, ~There is a need, an urgent need, of imme- diate funds to provide food, glothing and fuel for families whieh 'are in desperate circumstances, and which do net come ol the scope of any existing + relief oration: | To Wait for three weeks might "Ontean starvation te many of these families, so the appeal is made mow for a fund' large enough to carry the burden of relief for those in immediate want, Then after Christmas Is past the need will still re- main, The Christmas Cheer Fund han as ita worthy objective the supplying of Christmas dinners and Christmas cheer to families which would otherwise spend a cheerless and joyless Christmas, And at that joyous season, it should not be sald of this com- munity that any ef its citizens were left in want, But after Christmas is over, and the Christmas basket has become a thing of the past, the need will sill be there, urgently calling for solution and une Jess the citizens provide the funds to solve the pros Ublem, there will be a deplorable anpqum of destithe tion and suffering, To meet this problem is a big task, one which must " be fated in a big way, The Associated Welfare So- clotles of Oshawa stand ready to apply the remedy Which is needed, but can only do se in proportion to the funds available, In past years, a sum of aps proximately $3,000 has been required for the Christ mas Cheer Fund, This year, such a sum will be to- tally inadequate to meet the needs of the pressing situation, A much larger amount is urgently res quired, and those citizens who have the means are appealed to in the hope that they will respond, out of the urge of the Christmas spirit generawsly and promptly, If every person in Oshawa would only give as he or she could afford to give, in praportion te ine come and means, and would make that giving a matter of conscience, a matter of Christmas Thanks: giving, then there would be no doubt of the result, The money, needed would be subscribed in a few days. And it is needed. in just that measure, This is no "time for hesitation, no time for pondering over the why and the Wherefore of the situation, The need is he ay: It must be met by large-hearted and 'opens od generosity on the part of our more fore tunate people, and so The Times joins with the As woclated Welfare Societies in ita appeal for a mere measure of giving for a pressing and wore eause than 'the city has ever known. AN EXTENDED 8 SERVICE The extension of he. atree the street gar service by the 'Oshawa Railway Company ia 'much appreciated by the citizens of Oshawa, The up of the pers vice, now on a ten minute basis, provides the addi tional transportation facilities whish have long been o people in the city, and the railway company is de- earty congvatulations on ita enterprise igh of the city and taking steps to pos ' a yp: vs New York and Chisago i ef 55 i z £5 z tengion of street cor service mow in 5282283. i bon wl be dvdr the, Sir 3p bu or "an extension of street car, Service aver the aes now have a local transporiation aystem which would come #0 close 'to meeting the: city's complete needs for transportation that there would Be no further coms plalnts as to the lack of service wants Sure Telopbane northern and southern PREVENTION RATHER THAN CURE An interesting discussion of the new trend in medic eal thought featured a meeting held 4 few d under the auspices of the Toronte Socisl Hygiene Council, At that meeting, Dr. Guy Kiefer, commis» slongr of public health for the state of Mishigan, mads the interesting remark iw "It 1 bed thi t 4 pri bog ody oul wove vein ered cragy, oy of con re 'was Aw i why of pointing to Hl on a advances which have been made medical selene in the last generation, Practices ich would never have been given a thought thirty yaare ago are now dpenly and strongly advocated, this is perhaps more evident in the field of pre- ventive medicine than in any Thirty years ago, the ohiel funetion of & medical man was to try to cure the many aliments to which the human body ls subject, That system is now out of-date, and modern medical glence has turned ita attention to the prevention of dlsehse rather than its eure, The results' of this new attitude sre being found in decreased mortality rates for certain speci fic diseases, such as ideas Bo smallpox, diphtheria, scarlet and typhold fever, A generation ago, these were looked upon as deadly diseases, sure to bring death to those suffering from them, Today, they have lost much of thelr terror, for methods of im- munieation and of treatment in the Incipient stages have brought them almost completely under control, This is an advance in medical science which is of tremendous value to the world, and it is gradually being recognized that it is & man's duty, not to eall in the doctor only when he is ill, but to eall in the doctor to keep him well when he is well, YETCRAFT GOODS FOR CHRISTMAS In workshops all over the Dominion of Canada, digs abled ex-service men have for months beew laboring, in sheltered employment, In an effort to eke out thelr meagre pensions by making substantial toys and arr ticles of furniture, These men are the employees of the Veteraft shops, created hy the department of sol diers' elvil re-establishment so that those men whose physical disabilities brought' them only a small pens sion, but who were unable to go out and compete for employment in the open labor market, The produgts of the Veteraft shops are maklyg a vwme for themselves all over Canad. Naturally, the field which they can enter is Himited, but, with skill in woodworking, it has been able to train these men to make many lines of household furniture and many lines of substantial toys for children, Nature ally, the year's work is but a preparation for the season when Veteraft products are in greatest des mand = the Christmas season, and these men are doubtless looking forward eagerly to the demand for their wares which will bring back to them the money necessary to bring their pensions up to a living wage, Veteraft goods, of course, Lannot replace the pros ducts of the factories of Canada, for they can only ba placed on the market in limited quantities, THat is all the more reason why they should meet with a ready demand, why people ghould look for the Vote eraft label, knowing that In buying articles bearing It they are helping some man who served and suffers ed for his country, to earn an honest livelihood by the werk of his hands, DOES IT MEAN ANYTHING? The Briand Kellogg anti-war pact is facing its first test, For weeks, China and Soviet Russia have been on the verge of active hostilities on the Siberian frontier, In fact, there have been acts of violence and clashes between bodies of troop that might ex- cure one for thinking that war was actually in pros gress, but the nations of the world are inclined to overlook these Incidents, and to put forth their strong» ost efforts to prevent a war of large proportions, The Briand-Kellogg pact is on trial because both China and Soviet Russia are signutories to that pact, in which they renounce warfare as an instrument of national peliey, Led by the United States and Great Brita, practically all of the other signatories are demanding that the signatures which were affixed to that treaty by the representatives of China and Rus« sla'be respected, and that these nations live up to the pledge which they signed, Unfortunately, Soviet Russia has net, in the past, shown much willingness to recognise treaty obligas tions, and it may be that the lack of good faith on the part of Soviet leaders will cause the past to be worthless in the face of expediency, If that is the case, Russia will become more than ever a pariah among the nations, for the other signatories to the pact will have every reason for denouncing her as a nation in whom no trust can be placed, There is not #0 much reason to worry about China, China would probably he quite wilhng to give up any thought ot war if the other party to the dispute could be paci- fied, The whole situation boils itself down to the popition that unless Russia listens with an attentive car to thd demand that she observe her treaty obligas tions, the whole pact {s in danger of failure at its first teat, EDITORIAL NOTES In planning your Christmas giving, remember first the Oshawa Christmas Cheer Fund, Those hands sticking out to be shaken are a fair ly goed indication that municipal election time is again drawing near, Russia Is seeking to modernize her alphabet, Rut 'in every other reapect nhe ia going back to the Dark Ages, | sm---- The State of Virginia is proposing to establish a school on wheels, Apparently the Virginians have been hearing of the way they do it in Ontario!
