THURSDAY, OCTOBER 23rd, 1980 A COMPLAINT FROM THE FARMERS Many of the farmers of the district sur- rounding Oshawa have a complaint to make against the city. They are farmers who have not yet succumbed to the lure of the automo- bile, but who depend on old Dobbin to bring them into the city to do their shopping. Their complaint is that there is no place in where they can even tie up their horses, they make the rounds of the stores ve to visit. As one of them said to es the other day, they have to drive and back to the farm again; before tie up their patient animals. ty folks may smile at this complaint. may think it does not amount to any- . But just think it over from the stand- of the farmer who wants to make Osh- his shopping centre, but who finds him- his : §¢ th Q es LH ki when he comes into the city with horse and buggy. The merchants Oshawa are losing patronage because the horse and buggy farmers have been crowded out of the picture by the autqmobiles; and it is business they cannot afford to lose. And naturally, the farmers have come to the con- clusion that the city folks do not want to be bothered with them, and so they stay away, and do their shopping from the mail order catalogues. This is something which the Retail Mer- chants Section of the Chamber of Commerce might well take into consideration. It would- pay them to do so. They can help business for themselves by arranging to have provi- sion made in some central location for the comfort and convenience of the horses which bring shoppers to the city. If the farmers knew that this had been done, and that they were welcome in Oshawa, much business would be drawn here. But just now they have a grudge against Oshawa simply be- cause there is no provision for horses, i they stay away. How much better it wou be if Oshawa were to become known through- out the country as a city which welcomed farmers with open arms, and provided, not only for their automobiles, but also for the horse-drawn vehicles which many of them still use. WHY NOT A CANNING FACTORY? A suggestion worth noting was made to The Times the other day. It was to the effect that Oshawa, through its official bod- ies, should make a strong effort to have a canning factory established in the city. The value of a canning factory would not only lie in the employment which it would provide for city workers, but in the facilities it would provide for farmers in the surrounding dis- trict to bring' their produce to the factory and find a market for it there. In the suburbs of Oshawa:there are many small farms, or truck gardens, patches of from five to twenty acres which, in times like the present, could very profitably be devoted to the growing of canning crops. Many of the people on these small farms are city workers, who are unemployed at the present time, and have had little work all summer. With a canning factory close at hand, they could have turned their attention to garden- ing on a large scale, and could have spent e summer in raising crops for the cannery. : things are now, there are farmers liv- of Oshawa who take their canning the way to Bowmanville, Wagon corn for the canning factory can seen on the highway almost any day, but distance to be travelled is so great that farmers lose a large amount of time loads. "Perhaps the Cha of Commerce already this matter under consideration. But it teresting to note that people in the rural 3 are thinking along that line, n eve that a canning factory would be real asset to Oshawa. A GROWING MOVEMENT s report presented at this week's meet- 'the Oshawa Boy Scout Association, th of the Boy Scout movement fn is highly gratifying to the frien is splendid organization for the develop- boy life and character. Oshawa now active boy scout s and five wolf Bo Fi . g To impetus at the recent jamobree in the city, | and during the coming winter it would not be surprising to find several new troops or- ganized, and many more boys enrolled in the xcout organization. The local association, which has undertaken the task of sponsor ing the movement, and helping to develop it on a larger scale, is to be commended on the success of its first year of effort. There is, however, much work that it can still do, and its officers are deserving of every encourage- ment in their endeavors to extend to a much ' wider circle of Oshawa boys the undoubted benefits of training such as is given in the boy scout organizations of the city. | A DANGER FROM GERMANY Newspapers from Great Britain and Eu. rope are paying much attention to the situ- ation which has been created iy Germany by the growing strength of the Fascist party under the leadership of Herr Hitler. Herr Hitler has avowedly declared that the aim of his party is to secure control of affairs in Germany, repudiate the Versaille treaty, cancel all the debts which Germany owes as a result of the war, and defy the rest of th world to do anything about it. : That is a dangerous situation. 'If Herr Hitler were the leader of a small minority group of revolutionaries, little attention would be paid to his declarations. But he is the leader of a party which almost over- turned the German government, a party which is likely to gain in strength before the next German elections come along. There is still, in Germany, a large body of public opinion which refuses to admit Germany's guilt for the world war. There is a still larger body of people who would go to any length to have Germany released from her treaty obligations. To these people, the de- claration or Herr Hitler comes as a way out of the difficulties which beset their country, and there is more than a possibility that he will gain much added strength in the next few years. Then will come the period of real danger. One can hardly imagine the consequences of action by Germany to repudiate the Ver- sailles treaty, with all that it entails. It would be sufficient to precipitate' another war. It would be sufficient to arouse France once again to fighfing pitch, and the French people would not hesitate to take up arms against Germany again in order to make sure their own security. Thus the rise to strength of Herr Hitler is the most significant politi- cal movement that has occurred in Europe since the end of the world war, and it has created a situation that will give rise to much anxiety during the next few years. THE AERIAL MAIL SERVICE It is announced that by an extension of Canada's aerial mail service, it will be pos- sible to send mail from Liverpool, England, and have it delivered in Toronto or Montreal less than: four days after it has been posted. This will be done by establishing an aerial mail station on the Straits of Belle Isle, at the first point which steamers coming to Canada reach, and there taking the mail from the steamers, and sending it by aeroplane to the cities mentioned, And on the outgoing mail, aeroplane will take it from Toronto and Montreal to the same spot, and there place it on board the steamers. This is & remarkable advance in speedy mail communication, and calls to attention the service which has already been provided by the aerial mail service. The public have become quite accustomed to read in. their newspapers of spectacular flights, or aero- plane crashes and the like, but day in and day out the air mail pilots are flying their routes. They are doing this in a business like way, seeking no publicity, and giving a splendid service to the people of Canada. They are making a contribution .u the cause of aviation far beyond that of any spectacu- lar trans-oceanic flight or flying stunts, and they are doing it: as a daily job, a routine matter, and little is heard of them. Their work marks a definite achievement in safe flying and that, after all, is the chief goal of aviation at the present time, and is the factor which will have the greatest influence on the future development of aerial transpor- tation and communication. i EDITORIAL NOTES The weather of the last few days has start- ed the coal man smiling again. Farmers are wondering why they should pay just as much for their bread today as they did a year ago when they are selling their wheat for half the price that it was then. And no one seems able to supply the answer. 23 i A good start has been made on giving work to Oshawa's unemployed. But there ars a hundreds of men who are looking for\ a job, - The future of Oshawa Fair is bound up. in the meeting to be held next week between the fair board and the parks board. And the future of athletics in Oshawa is also involved to a considerable extent, Thus the meeting promises to be one of real interest.

M.D. FEVER FROM AN UNKNOWN CAUSE I have spoken' before about the mistake mothers make in using the clinical thermometer so, much with hele children. Even Wien the ehild ks well enough, is' sleeping eat well, the mother for "safety's sake Should it show a rise of even one degree she begins to worry and very frequently calls in the doctor. As you know a youngster, or even an adult may have a temperature of 97° F. in the early morning and 99°F. at four o'clock in the afternoon, and be perfectly normal. In fact most of us will show a difference of at least one degree between the morn ing and the late afternoon tempera- ture. Also any little temporary dis- turbance in the stomach or intestine can raise the temperature one or two degrees, and no attempt should be made to reduce this temperature by feven reducing drugs. The use of a purgative or enema of course may be indicated, a However where a youngster or an adult has a persistent temperature every afternoon for a number of days or weeks, even if the temperature is not unduly high 100° F. to 101° F., then it would be very unwise to ig- nore it. There must be some real cause; something more than-a little indigestion. The physician' should be called in and any and every suggestion' he makes regarding the needs of the case should be met by the family as far as possible. There are so many things that may be causing this "low fever," as it is called, that it may need patience on the part of everybody before the ac- tual cause is discovered. It may be a low infection from teeth, tonsils, sinuses, large intestine, appendix, gall bladder and so forth. It may be the beginning of some thyroid or other glandular condition. It may be the early symptom of typhoid fever, After painstaking effort the cause is likely to be found because of the methods now at the disposal of the phiysicias, ' rs. H. L.-Alt and M. H. Barker, of the Peter Bent Brigham Hospital, Boston, report that of 34,000 patients admitted into the hospital since its opening, only 173 had a persistent temperature whose cause could not be discovered at the time. Of these cases that they were unable to follow up; twenty-three later showed the likely cause -- tuberculosis, cancer, heart disease, rheumatism or other cause. Don't let a little rise in tempera. ture worry you. It is Nature's meth- od of fighting an ailment for you. However don't ignore a temperature that persists for some days. Call a doctor.
