The formal opening on Wednes- day afternoon marks the opening of three days of ceremonies and functions that will Jk the occasion one long to be remem- ered, It should not be thought that these fune- tions and ceremonies are being arranged merely for a select few, The opening of the new composite institute is the citizens' af- fair, The school was built by the citizens, and is owned by the citizens, and every per- son in Oshawa should feel a personal pride in it, That pride should be sufficient to make them interested in the opening: ceremonies, and should give them the desire to take part in them, ; Ini today's news columns of The Times there appears the program which has been arranged for the occasion, and the citizens are given a cordial welcome to take advant- age of the opportunities which are afforded them for inspecting the magnificent school building which stands on Simcoe Street North, and to Join with the board of Educa- tion and the Collegiate and Vocational In. stitute staff and students in the observances of the formal opening, The opportunity is for all, and it is to be hoped that the citi. sons of Oshawa will turn out in large bums. bers to do justice to this notable occasion, TEACHING THE TRADES § The new Ontario Apprentice Act, which will be made effective this fall, is a fare yeaching piece of legislation, since it goes to "the root of what has long been considered 'a weak spot in the Canadian industrial sys. tem, the decline of the method of apprentic. Le oung lads to the building trades, The : ith {Tbiean hae bucume the pride of the wor! ause of the rigorous apprentice aystem which has for generations oh the sule in the old country, Under the new On.

There is much merit "in the plan whereby the young lads, during 'the slack period of the building industry, 'shall continue their training in vocational cols, 80 that that time may not be loat, And since they will be paid for the time nt in theae schools, there should be every tive to these boys to take advantage Nhe ppetiunities provided for them, education is coming to the fore than ever in these days, and is ine in value, But the ultimate in efe 0 reached in Ontario which is to be adopted under iy "the Ontario Apprenticeship Act. fz E 252 2 iz 22 a D, T'1esldder, ] g the Empire which Is closest to our shores, and with which Canada is seeking to create closer trade relationships, Yet this article is only one of many, every one of which Is worth reading and studying, The Canadian Geographical Society is 8 new igation, but there is a fleld for it fn, this country, and thet fleld will be greatly widened by the excellence of the ThAgiksing month, which it proposes to publish every Sr ---------------- STOPPING AT CROSSINGS E, W, Beatty, president of the Canadian Pacific Railway, is strongly In favor of hav. ing all automobiles come to a dead stop at rallway 'crossings as a means of Yeung the number of crossing ' accidents, He ints to the fact that this is now the law n Quebec, and claims that Ontario would Denefe by the imposition of the same regu~ Myr, Beatty's point is well taken, The op» eration of this law in Quebec has reduced the number of accidents at crossings, and it has not been found anything of a handl. cap to motor travel, We can recall motors ing through a section of Quebec recently, and observing its operation, and the deldy to traffic waa so insignificant as to be hardly worth mentioning. But, on the other hand the measure of safety provided was so great that one cannot conceive of a crossing ag. cident In the lower province, This suggestion should be welcomed by the department of highways In Ontarlo, Anything, in fact, which would tend to/de- crease the number of motor aceldents should be welcomed, And since the experience of Quebec has been so favorable to the law re- quiring automobiles to stop at all railway crossings, Ontario ought to he quite willing to benefit from that experience, ET ---- CONFISCATION OF CARS Crown Attorney J, E. Anderson of Lind. say is determined to drive intoxieated auto. mobile drivers from the highways which come under his jurisdiction. He Is starting the season right by warning motorists that if they are caught with liquor in their cars he will press for confiscation of the cars as well as for the maximum sentence allowed by the law. "Liquor and gasoline don't mix," he sald, "And I am going to start campaigning againat drivers who try to mix them." The punishment suggested by the Lind. say orown attorney does seem a bit drastie, put there will be few people who will ques tion its wisdom, As a matter of fact, it is generally conceded that only the sternest measures will be considered as adequate in dealing with those who endanger thelr own lives and the lives of others by driving cars while under the influence of liquor, It will be interesting to observe, however, whether or not he carries out his threat, and to see what kind of co-operation he is given by the magistrates of his district, because, If he succeeds in putting hia ideas into effecs tive operation, a aplendid example will be set to other crown officials elsewhere in On: tarlo, A QUESTION OF GOOD FAITH Many people will be astonished by the an. nouncement that Italy is to start on a naval building program involving 20 warships, with a total tonnage of 48,000, That aston. ishment will be all the greater since the ink on Italy's signature to the naval conference agreements In scarcely dry. There was no' uestioning the good faith of Italy at that time, and the conference was adjourned, confident in the belief that France and Italy would come together for a more complete understanding aa to naval reduction and lim itation, And this is Italy's a! It hat come 80 quickly that one can only come to one i dliskiy and that: ia that while Italy's representative was signing the naval con: ference agreement, Italy's government had its big navy plana in readiness to be launch od, The question of good faith is undoubts edly involved, and while one hesitates, in these days of supposed frankness in interna tional dealings, to expresa doubts of that kind, yet the Italian m will cause much misgiving in the minds of those who are anxious to see naval disarmament be. come a reality, EDITORIAL NOTES The old country folks who like their "cup of tea" are sure to be well pleased with Dunning's budget.
