At shows that the steamship companies were merely waiting for the harbor to be opened fo inaugurate a freight service hy water to pnd from Oshawa, It seems, too, as if they ecognized that the Oshawa harbor would e used to such an extent that the local busi. mess was worth fighting for, That is why these two steamship companies are compet. "fing for the honor of having the first steamer enter the new Oshawa harbor, And it is gust possible that a third line may jump phead of them, and steal away the honors, In view of the attitude of the department bf public works towards the Oshawa harbor, fit is encouraging to find steamship companies gompeting for local business, . The depart. ment has stated that as soon as the needs pf the harbor are apparent, further develop. ment work will be undertaken, In other words, the continuation of the harbor devel. ."""jppment depends on the use which is made of it, on the amount of traffic which passes through it. This places a responsibility on * the community to make full use of the facilis ties which have been provided, so that it "will be possible, in the very near future, to 'place before the government the claims. of the city of Oshawa for an even greater har- . Por than that which has been provided, 3g x ---------------------------- L \ A SPLENDID SERVICE On Saturday aftornoon the last of the boys tame home from the Kiwanis camp at Ked. won. For the last month, the camp has been 'busy, and a happy place. Two separate (ps of boys have had the inestimable pri. of spending two weeks at the camp, expert and painstaking leadership, as 'guests of the Kiwanians, Those who n in close touch with the camp, and w the boys when they arrived there n they came back, have expressed at the transformation that was ected "in the short" space of two weeks, . The two of open-air lite, with Rauithy ' yegreation, splendi , and everything that 4 Tha ing of sound and minds, worked wonders, and these wa will feel the benefit of their camp period right through the fall and winter, ~The Kiwanis CI has rendered a splendid service to the city in the operation of its camp, In the first place, it is tobe congratu- lated on the speed with which it erected the camp bufldings and put the site into shape, And, secondly, it is to be congratulated on having chosen this field of endeavor as an outlet for its activities, A It is to be hoped that the 1980 Kiwanis Camp, successful as it was, will'be regarded as only a beginning, and that each succeed- ing year will find greater developments, not only in the provision of camp buildings, but 880 in the gradual increase in the number of boys to be taken there during the summer vacation, There Is a need for this camp in Oshawa, and it might very well be regarded #8 the start of a movement that will result in an all-the-year-round program of body and character-building activity for the boys of the community, THE NEW CABINET-MAKER The Hon, R, B, Bennett haw not found it an easy matter to select hig cabinet, not he- cause of any dearth of material, but rather because of the surplus of elected candidates on his side of the house who might have good, claims to be included in the cabinet, This is inevitable in a country like Canada, with provincial and sectional interests to he considered, All the provinces must have cabinet representation, and there are also ra. cial considerations entering into the choos. ing of the men who will occupy" the front benches of the government side of the house, If that were all, Mr, Bennett would not find it hard to choose his cabinet, for he has an abundance of good material from every province, On the other hand, he has to con- sider the feelings of his elected followers, Scores of them have the idea in the hack of their minds that they are logical men for cabinet positions, and they are not slow in letting their leader know what they think, Unfortunately, there are not enough port. folios to go around, so there are bound to be more disappointed members than satisfied ones, That is why Mr, Bennett was not in any hurry to announce his cabinet, He does not relish the idea of having too many disgrunt- led followers in the House, He knows that some of them, like Isaac MacDougall, in Ins verness County, Nova Beotia, have heen tell ing their constituents, that they were likely to be cabinet ministers, We can recall hears ing Mr, McDougall, in an election campaign speech, tell his audience at Orangedale, Nova Beotia, that if he were elected, he would be in the next cabinet, And he told his hearers this information "in strictest confidence," It would have been better if he had kept his oonfidences to himself, for he has not only placed his leader in an awkward predicament, but he has made himself look foolish to his constituents, since his name has not even been mentioned in the many lists of cabinet possibilities, Mr, Bennett, however, need have no diffi. culty in selecting a capable cabinet, The party which he leads is rich in talented men, and although there will he many heart-burn. ings, the country as a whole should find the new cabinet well up to the standard of any that have preceded it, EDITORIAL NOTES The man who throws bouquets at himself should be careful that they do not return as hoomerangs, A real optimist is an advertising writer who claims that shaving can be made a plea- sure, Bennett's first task is to find cabinet jobs for his unemployed followers in parliament, It is stated that Ottawa went delirious over Rudy Vallee when the crooning singer visit. ed that city lately, That does not speak very highly for the mentality of Canada's capital, The little things still count, A torn fin fabric slowed up the trip of the R-100 and caused postponement of its flights-in Canada, Backyard lawns are heing badly disfigured pince the Tom Thumb golf ¢raze became popular, The election post-mortema have not yet res vealed the cause of the slaughter of Liberal candidates in Quebee, If Mr, Bennett caries out his promise to have the old age pensions paid for entirely by the federal government, Oshawa will be able to save quite a few thousand dollars a year, Hansard reports of the House of Commans will be numbered among those grateful for the defeat of Tommy Church, Those applicants for government positions who built up a good case as Liberal sympa. thizers will be rather out of luck now that the Conservatives have the giving of the ap- pointments, The latest reason given for the Liberal de- feat is that a government which could call an election in mid-summer deserved to be Other
