Tresidder, representative, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 13th, 1980 LEARNING TO SAVE «+ The report that a sum amounting to $2, 677 has been deposited in the Penny Bank by the school children of Oshawa since that, system off saving was introduced some five weeks ago is-a splendid justification of the decision of the board of education to sponsor this institution in the city. This city. This money represents the deposits of some 2,800 pupils, dr 88 percent of the total enrollment in the public schools of the city, a figure which is much above the average number of depositors found in cities the size of Oshawa. The sum of $2,500 may not seem a large one to some people, but that money repre- sents the nickels, dimes and quarters of the school children, money which it may have been quite a struggle to save. It is not the amount that counts, but the saving effort, the desire to accumulate the little coins which otherwise would be spent more or less foolishly. The money in itself will be very useful as it accumulates, but the greatest thought behind the Penny Bank movement is that it. is teaching the children to save their money, and is inculcating in their minds the desire for thrift and care in the spending of money, two attributes which are highly desirable in this modern age. OSHAWA DID NOT FORGET In spite of the fact that twelve years have elapsed since the end of the war, years crowded with busy activity, the people of Oshawa, during the last weekend, have de- monstrated that they have not forgotten the significance of the Armistice anniversary oc- casion. On Sunday, and on Tuesday, the call to the citizens to remember those men of the city who fell with their faces looking to the foe in a gesture of challenge was heeded in a manner which has not been equalled here for many years. Oshawa 'did not forget. In discharging théir debt of gratitude to the dead, the citi- zens of Oshawa remebered the disabled and the needy by their contributions to the Pop- py Fund which is raised by the Canadian Legion to care for such cases. It is true that the total of the fund is less than it was a year ago, but that was to be expected, and those in charge of the appeal are well satis- fied that the citizens of Oshawa have again done nobly for the Poppy Day fund. Oshawa did not forget. The observance of the two minutes of silence at eleven o'clock: on Tuesday was most impressive. There was a lump in the throat and a tug at fhe heartstrings as the oppressiveness of that deathly silence in the centre of the city pressed in on one. It could be felt, and it brought pangs of memory to many a heart. And in factory and store, in office and in homes, the two minute period was reverently observed as a period of meditation on the sacrifices of war, and on the responsibility which these sacrifices have placed on the new. generation that is growing up. So, as the heart of Oshawa stood still, so did the minds of the people of Oshawa fill up with those memories which must ever be enshrin- ed in patriotic hearts. Oshawa did not forget. In the schools 'of the city, the significance of the day was pointed out to children who have never "known what war has meant. Selected speak- "ers told the children, the great majority of them unborn when the Great War came to an end, of what the men of Canada did for them, for the Empire and for the world. And it is good that these children should be told of these things, good for them to know that they are following a generation of high-soul- ed and bravé-hearted men, who counted not the cost, but freely gave their todays for our MmOrrow. bo ey did not forget. The brief and simple service of decoration at the war mem- orial showed that there was remembrance, and that the. Garden of the Unforgotten would, as years go by, remain a hallowed place of memories, where the grateful hearts o fthe people of the community could pour out their eternal thanksgiving to the men whose names appear on that memorial in a place of honor. Armistice Day, 1930, is gone. It has brought back poignant memories, It has made people more sober for a brief season. It has made them reflect on the duty which: was placed upon them by those who have passed on. "And that reflection found its by, may the occasion become more and more hallowed, so that.in future years, the people- mav more and more regard this season as one for reconsecration to the tasks of true citizenship. | THE MINISTER'S TEXT Hon. George S. Henry, minister of public highways, might well be called a missionary of highway safety for the province of On-' tario. Realising that drastic measures are necessary to safeguard human life on the highways of the province, he loses no oppor- tunity of placiing before motorists the essen- tials of safe driving. ! Such as opportunity came to him the oth- er day when he opened the new highway from Trenton to Wooler. On that occasion, the minister spoke from a threefold text, in which he exposed the three-fold danger to which motorists were daily subjecting them- selves and their fellow-drivers. The three rules he enunciated cover the greatest sourc- es of highway danger, for he pointed out the absolute folly of (1) Attenmpting to drive around curves at a high rate of speed. (2) Leaving the line of traffic without being absolutely sure that the road ahead is clear, (3) Passing another car on a hill. Every motorist knows the dangers of these practices. And every motorist, we venture to say, can recall occasions on which he has had narrow escapes because of indul- gence in them. Yet it should not be hard to realize how foolish they are, how it is tempting fate to be guilty of them, for in them lie the germs of swift and terrible death. Mr. Henry had a message, in that text, worth heeding, and if the motorists in On- tario were as earnest in heeding his message as he is in delivering it, there would be few- ; er serious accidents on the Ontario highway. A FATEFUL CONFERENCE The importance of the Indian round-table conference which was opened in London yes- terday can best be judged from the fact that it was considered of sufficient moment to have it officially opened by His Majesty the King. Even'the Imperial conference has not the deep significance to the future of the Empire that this gathering of men from In- dia, and from the halls o fthe British Parlia- ment assumes in the light of recent events in India. As an Empire within an Empire, India occupies an unique position in the British Commonwealth of Nations. The government of India has always been a complex problem, on account of the multiplicity of races, creeds and castes within the country. Yet its people have made progress. They have advanced in education and in standards of living. Their educated people have sought positions of leadership, and although there are vast millions still in benighter ignorance, with no education, no signs of culture, little signs, in fact, of civilization, there is a defin- ite demand from the ruling Indian class that their country is ripe for Dominion status, that the time has come to have it accorded the powers of self-government. India, perhaps, is passing 'through the same stages in development as were experi- enced in Canada about one hundred years ago. Yet it must be admitted that its people are far from being as ready for self-govern- ment now as the pioneer settlers of Canada were in the early thirties of the last century. These Canadian pioneers had come from countries which enjoyed self-government. They knew the meaning of freedom, and un- derstood its responsibilities. They were cap- able of accepting these responsibilities. In India, the situation is far different. Only a very small minority of the people can be considered as having education sufficient to appreciate the meaning of self-govern- ment. These people, unfortunately, are mak- ing their voices heard, because they alone are articulate in that vast Empire of hun- dreds of millions of people. That situation makes the position of Great Britain a dif- ficult one. It would be easy to take the path of least resistance, and grant India self-gov- ernment and Dominion status. But it is * doubtful whether this would be the wiser plan. A very considerable body of enlight-. ened public opinion clings to the idea that India is far from ready for such a step, that there must be many years of gradual devel opment before India is ready to stand on her own feet as Canada is doing today.. Between these two widely divergent views there lies, somewhere, a solution of the problem, and one can only hope, as the King said in his opening address, that wisdom and a spirit of conciliation will prevail, and that the end of the conference wjll be 'the finding of # satis- factory solution. EDITORIAL NOTES + Do your Christmas shopping--in Osh- awa. : It will be recalled that Mr. Bennett charged that the newspapers of Canada mis- reported him in the election campaign in Canada. Now he is making the same charge against the newspapers of Britain. Perhaps this has become a habit which he finds it hard to break. ; Isn't it strange that a year of supposed hard times should provide the Varsity Sta- dium in Toronto with the record football crowd for all time in Canada! y If the campaign of deportation proposed by Mayor Webb of Winnipeg is successful, ibe Reds in this country will soon be feeling ue. : J : | Eye : Care and Eye Strain by C. H. Tues, Opt. D. (Copyright, 1928) OPTICAL LENSES Part "1" commonly used for optical lenses is what is called Crown Glass. It is harder than ordinary glass and much clearer in color being composed cHiefly of Si- lica, Soda and Lime. When a soft- er glass is required as in the seg- ment portions of bifocals, Flint Glass is used, lead replacing the soda makes it sufficitnely softer than the crown glass permitting it to soften sooner than the other and 80 under a certain temperature the two will fuse together into one. Care mist be taken to assure a pure white glass with the the following qualifications: 1. As near as possible colorless glass, 2 . The glass . Free from striae. 3. Free from bubbles. 4. Free from strain. 6. Of equal perfectness in sur- face, 6. Accurate as to curvature, 7. Exact in focus. While it is possible for these im- perfections to be beyond the vision of the untrained eye, they are nevertheless injurious to the wear- er, and for this reason each and every lens should be true to a given standard.

SHOTS FIRED AT COSGRAVE'S GUARD Irish Free State President Denies He Was Present at. Time Dublin, Nov. 13. -- Excitement which prevailed throughout the Irish capital last night following persistent reports that an attempt had been made to assassinate President William T. Cosgrave, abated when an official denial was made by the president himself. It was admitted. however, that the day shift of military guards, whose duty it is to guard the life of the Fresident, were fired upon on leaving President Cosgrave"s home to return to their barracks. From reports of this shooting grew the persistent rumors that the President had been shot at from ambush as he approached his home. 43 5.30 6.30 7. 7. 8 9. 0. 1 a ata I 1 ----- =ORNmN 10.30 bl1.00 in Sunday. a~Saturdays, Sundays and Holid I b-Sundays only. ays ony | Bremen SAYS: That the first big casualty in the automobile manufacturing busi- ness followed this concern's advent in the radio advertising field on {a big scale two years ago, al- | though It was supported by inter- | nationally known artists and was | | the first big program of the kind | | purchased as an advertising argu- | This campaign was a com- | | plete flop, and soon thereafter this | | make of car was taken over com- | | ment, pletely by another manufacturer, Despite this experience, other automobile manufacturers followed tising fleld, cutting their newspap- setting this expense, and timed with this adventure the slump in the sale of new cars was plainly evident.
