Tresidder, rove He ' i REPRESENTATIVES IN 1).8, : Powers and Stone Inc., New York and Chicago TUESDAY, APRIL 8, 1930 ACTION 18 NEEDED In' previous editorials, The Times has pointed out that while conditions in Oshawa at the present time are not good, the future of the city was assured, and that when con- ditions generally, throughout the dominion, improved, Oshawi would be-in'a position to march forward in the forefront of'the path of progress, We believe that to be true, and {| for that reason are not, pessimistic as to the years which lie ahead, There is, however, the other aspect of '+ conditions, the side which must cause grave concern, and which should be: given speedy consideration by those in places of authority, . There is at present a considerable amount of unemployment in the city, One must re. cognize that fact, for there is no escaping it, and it means that families of working men "ave being placed in dire straits, and in some . cases, are near to the starvation point, ' This condition 'actually exists, and it is being branded as scare-mongers, And it 1s a condition which calls for some effort at ac- Sion on the part of the elvic authorities, The situation cannot be helped, nor can the con- fidence of the working men in the city be restored, if those in places of authority sit . 4dly by.and do nothing. The time has come when facts must he faced by action, and we would suggest that the city council, through the mayor, shonld 'take steps for an immediate conference with the Chamber of Commerce and the employ- ors of labor in the city, so that the present situation may be given full and free discus- * sion with a view to finding out if there is any possible way in which the situation can be relieved, We are not claiming that employers of "labor are not doing ! | such ae. but we believe that a body of men dll they can to help the such as mentioned above, sitting down to uss the situation seriously, might be ¢ to devise some ways and means of mak- "ing ax adjustment so as to spread the em- ployment available over a larger number of milies, #0 as to relieve the distress which exists here. .". Oshawa, as has been staled, is no worse than some other cities, but that is no reason for sitting back and leaving things to take "thelr own course. Oshawa has its leaders, and the time has come for action pn their part to get together, talk over the situation and see if anything can be done to help mat- ters, There has been a good deal of talk in the last few month, but the time has now come for action. \ A SUMMER CAMP FOR BOYS The presentation at yesterday's Club of a wealth of By mail: «| longer a 1164s hart oom . costs nothing to be po |. been inven in Oshawa, It Is to be that these will "be taken berlously, and thet they may de- velop into something concrete within the next three months, so that a start may be made, at least, with the establishment of a Yeamp open to all Boys In the city who are 'wil to work and emrn that type of a summer holiday, 1. SHOP-AT.-HOME EXHIBITIONS 'The merchants of Brantford are, during i sent week, holding a "Shop-at-Home" exhibition in the Armouries of that city, ¢ this. exhibition they have Lut one aim in view,~to convince the people of «Brantford that it is worth while to buy at «home, rather than to go to larger centres Aor. shopping. purposes. hp idea is an excellent one, for the cul. "tivation of the shopping-at-home habit is "one of the big factors in tHe prosperity of any community, Many shoppers find from experience that it pays them to buy in their own towns and cities, rather than to go else- where, but distant fields still look green to those who aré not convinced, and thus local communities are robbed of much of thelr buying power by the lure of the distant city, The Brantford idea is not a new one, but it is one that is worth encournging, and js "worth emulating, It requires, of course, a spirit of co-operation on the part of the mer. chants, So far as Oshawa is concerned, it is believed that they would co-operate in a venture of this kind, Oshawa by its close proximity to the provincial capital, suffers in a particular sense from the tendency to buy in the large city, and it might be found very profitable for Oshawa merchants to do as is being done in Brantford in an effort to show the people of this city that their stores are the logical places for Oshawa people to do thelr buying, ¢ LONG-FACED CHRISTIANITY A sermon such as was preached in To- ronto on Sunday by the Rev, Dr, J, H, Bail Me, professor at Emmanuel College, 1s needed today just as much as ever, Preach- ing in the Timothy Eaton Memorial Church, he said that so much of the crabbiness of middle age had been put into Christianity that modern youth was being misled into believing it a joyless religion. A Christian, he said, has come to be regarded as a man who goes about life with a sour face, There is much of truth in what Mr, Bail lie says, In it is found one reason for the apathy of many people towards church at. tendance and church work. They have formed the belief, probably from experience, that Ohristianity requires taking a solemn and staid view of life, and becoming very serloussminded. It does, to some extent, No person can live a truly Christian life with. out facing life seriously, in the knowledge that Christianity demands certain codes of living, and that it requires that that prac. tice be in line with precept. | But that does not necessarily mean that it is to be a joyless thing. People who are intensely religious in thelr nature can, it is true, often find joy in suppression of the things which might be called the pleasures' of life, But that kind of religion is false to the spirit of the Christ, and has no appeal ' to the yolng people of today. Christ came that "ye might have life, and have it more of the Christ, there is ample room for that joyousness that is demanded by the young people of this and every age. Christianity, at its inception, was a young 's movement, Christ himself was a . young man, and his apostles were young men, But they were not killjoys. Their lives had their lighter moments, as well ag their moments of meditation and prayer, Christ at the wedding feast of Cana was no less Christ, but he was exemplifying that in the gospel which he came to give to the world, there was room for merrymaking and laugh- ter. Thus one can quite readily take, from the example of the Master, the thought that the key to true Christian living does not lie in solemnity and long faces, but ra- 'ther in joyful and cheerful service, in the smiles. and gladness that come from a pure heart and a clean mind.

This, he stated, bas increased by nearly 30 per cent. since the Great War. Again, in making comparisons between the ditforent items, such as cream, butter and choose, All should be reduced to a common equiva of butter-fat, q fon The trend in dairy development, according to Mr, Singleton, is tos wards fewer plants but larger ones Each year records a drop,.in the number of cheese factories and creameries in the older districts, tithough there has been an in. oreane in the northern districts of Ontario and in the west, but each year also brings larger plants with groater production. In the last 10 years there has been a steady in. orease in the number of cows, and the number of cows in the herds, There has been a big increases in oreamery butter, a alight falling off in cheess, virtually no change in condensed and evaporated mitk, but more milk powder and con. densed skimmed milk and & great. or wroduction of milk generally. The growing imports of dairy products Mr, Singleton explained hy the huge increase in home cone sumption In every line of dairy products, but partioularly milk, butter and ico cream. This foe crease in consumption exceeded inorease in production, and hence the growing imports. The net ex- portable surplus, that is the ex oes of exports over imports, for the year ending November, 10290, was only slightly more than. a third of what it was for the year ending March, 1031, concluded Mr, Singleton.
