Tresidder, representative, REPRESENTATIVES IN U.S. Powers and Stone Inc., New York and Chicago FRIDAY, MAY 23, 1930 CONGRATULATIONS It is seldom that the people of Oshawa have so splendid a treat provided for them as was served up at the musical festival which closed in the Collegiate Auditorium last night, One cannot help but express the highest admiration for Mr. Richer, the di- rector of music in the schools, and his splen- did choir of school children, not only for the excellence of the program provided, but for the manner in which it was presented, The clear, young voices of the children, swell ing in a massed chorus, and the solo work of those entrusted with individual numbers on the program, thrilled the audience, and it was refreshing to hear the sincere and oft- repeated eulogies which were voiced by practically all of those who attended as they left the auditorium, : Mr. Richer is to be congratulated on the success of the festival, He has demonstrat. ed to the people of Oshawa, in a striking manner, the possibilities which lie dormant in the city for musical training, and the in- dividual talents of those who were selected for special prominence on the program, The children themselves, too, are to be congratu- lated. They rose nobly to the occasion, and provided their audiences with a real musical treat. The musical festival was the first event of its kind in the city but all who were privileg- ed to enjoy it will wish, with all sincerity, that it will not be the last. MAKE IT A SAFE HOLIDAY Tomorrow will be the first big holiday week-end of the summer season, Victoria Day falling on a Saturday, as it does, will «provide motorists with a long week-end in which to tour far and wide, to seek a brief respite from the cares and trials of works aday life, and the result will be crowded highways. So far, the week-ends of this month have been crowded with disaster. Motor and drowning accidents have caused a terrible toll of death to mount up, and already scores of lives have been sacrificed this year to the week-end motoring demon, This week-end will, in all probability, see further additions to the death list. It is tragic, yet it seems to be inevitable, Warn. ings seem to be of little use, because people will not take warnings to themSelves. They will insist on assuming that they are meant for the other fellow, so caution is thrown to the winds and the Monday newspapers re- cord their weekly list of death and injuries. tl aor c will be starting out on the highways 'tomorrow, full of the holi- day spirit. How many of them will be car- ied back, lifeless, to mourning homes, but- to make a Victoria Day holiday ? That a tragic thought, Tt should motorist, before starting out, 5, think of what 'a moment of relaxed YOUs=Or YOU~~Or YOU--- ho I, e will appear in the list in next bonds s newspapers Think of that, and mak first the inexorable rule of the ELECTION CAMPAIGN LETTERS ' During election cam many readers of newspapers like to have the opportunity of wri letters to the editor, expressing "their views on the issues which are being debated. These letters, of course, ave wel- comed by The Times, so long as they are of a nature that is suitable to print, and do not involve the newspaper in the laws con- cerning libel. As is usual in election cam- however, it is a strict rule that let- ters of this kind can be published only over 'the signature of the writer. This is made necessary by reason of conditiofls prevailing time, and because The Times does hi ve it to be in the public interest to i low olin shih iio} be nade ade cov- # anonymous y The Times , Lhere- vill wel coming within - o letters CW ions, It will not guarantee pub. ny or-all letters received, In ! ations of space will gov. ¢ would invite our readers to write » the editor whenever they feel they have' message to deliver, to sign their names, . published, ally neglects to part his hair properly, with the assurance that all letters of rems- onable length. and expression of view will be » A BLOSSOM WEEK FOLLY Blossom Week scems to pave become an accepted feature in the Niagara frult dis trict, and every spring, at the proper time, thousands of people make thelr way to that district to admire the blossoms, If they stopped at that, no person would have any * criticism to make, It would be commendable that the people of Ontario should desire to 'see this garden district of the province at its best, Unfortunately, it does not stop there, and the fruit growers will soon, be up in arms against the Blossom Week invasion if the vandalism which goes on continues, It has been observed, in the last week or two, that many cars coming home from these excur- sions, come home laden with blossoms, ruth- lessly torn from the trees, In other cases, people proudly exhibit snapshots taken of themselves with their arms filled with blos- some-laden boughs, Year after year this goes on, and city people never seem to real- ize that in denuding the orchards of their blossoms, they are robbing the fruit-grow- ers of their crop possibilities. 'It is plain stealing, nothing less, but still it goes on, This kind of thing is responsible for much of the bad feeling which exists between city and country people, and it will probably con- tinue until there are some prosecutions for stealing, and the people who rob the orch- ards are given the punishment they deserve. HAVING LITTLE BUSINESS A despatch from London, England, sald that the public hangman of England is "feel ing the pinch of unemployment," That isa rather near way of pointing out that there is so little murder in Great Britain that there is nothing much for him to do. When murder is committed in Britain, it usually means & hanging, for the law there has few loopholes, police systems are remarkably ef+ ficient, and in practically every case the mur- derer is called upon to pay the supreme pen- alty for his offence, So, since a murder in- variably means a hanging, the inference to be drawn from the despatch is that there are now very few capital crimes in Britain, That is a record of which Britain can be proud, for the same cannot be said of the other great nation of the world, the United States, Of course, comparatively few mur- derers in the United States are convicted and executed, There are too many avenues for escape from the noose. Perhaps that is why there are so many murders in that country. United States hangmen may also be feeling the pinch of unemployment, but not because there are fewer murders ; rather is it because murderers find it so easy to escape the con- sequences of their crimes, SANE REVIVAL NEEDED Revivals of the old time 'stamp, which were wonderful things in their day, have of late years dropped out of the programs of most churches, Two things were responsi- ble. One is that people are no longer to be frightened about hell. The thing they really fear is death and that is why many live so feverishly and selfishly, The other is that revivalism became too much of a business. Too many ex-convicts, ex-clowns and ex-what nots took it up. But the human heart, like the soil of earth to which scripture compares it, needs plow- ing with conviction and watering with re- ntance. Pe God's holy Name is too much profaned by all of us. And, possibly a worse thing we too much profane the glory of {friendship and Christian charity by the snarling gossip which can be traced quickly to a secret knowledge of individual bad faith, That is, it isn't what we suspect about others so much as what we know about our- selves, A revival can always be started by group prayer. Let twenty families in Cobourg be- gin holding little earnest home prayer-meet- ings--humble and divorced from supersti- tious frenzy~and within a month we should have a downpour of the prophet's "showers of blessings." : That, very likely, is what the Lord meant when He said: pt here two or three, are gathered together in my, Name, T will be in the midst." °° . EDITORIAL NOTES At this time the consensus seems to be that the lisping talkies will be a pronounced success when they can pronounce "success." If there is anything that would make us give up the straight eight for the old horse and buggy it is spinning the wheel after daubing on the axle grease.

At my disposal were tens of thousands physical examin ation charts, Why was I unable to get out these tables? , Because of the different types ol bodies, There is the tall slender, the tall heavy, the short slender, and the short heavy, There is'the greyhound type of physique of Dempsey, tall and lithe, and the powerful bull dog build of John J. Sullivan. These men were perfect specimens of thei types and yet the weights according 10 height were much different And so when 1 am sometimes ask ed why 1 do not get out a 'reducing diet' which could be followed safely daily and weekly, for a certain pers jod of time, I feel that a diet for everybody cannot salely be advised My reason for not doing so at the present time at least, is that every case is really a law unto itsell Here 1s one tindividual who 1s 40 pounds overweight and another 5 tc "| greatly benefited whilst others have pn | had such a collapse that they may Al-| Vigor, A Ham always been successful is that some 7 pounds over, In the case of the farmer, If in good health, the plan would be very simple=cutting down | a i i, ES BARGAINS In Guaranteed USED CARS if are listed o few of ; elow wa 4 our Used Cars," These care are «in i A NETTER VAL.
