THURSDAY, JANUARY 22, 1081 ON CO-OPERATION i A 8 3 2 ig i : 2g "Since the nning of the present year, word be gn has been heard a t deal at public meetings and gatherings various public and semi-public "bodies. 2 have been pleas for co-operation and promises of co-operation, and it does seem 8 if there is a realization that this mysteri- bus thing is a real need in Oshawa at the present time. "It would be interesting, however, to try analyze just what this thing, "'co-opera- n" really means to our city, It is a word at is 'sometimes used glibly, withont much | meaning, but it does signify something is needed in the community at the pre- ent time. : + If we mean anything by it, it means that all the people of Oshawa who have a genuine ire to see the city make progress must be willing to become one great team, willing and eager to put every effort possible into the k which is involved in the attainment of his objective. By it we mean that when a Woroject which is to help Oshawa to grow is out forward every citizen should realize his esponsibility for the success of that project, should be a willing volunteer for a share in the work. By it we mean that the foster- g of projects to benefit the city should be considered the duty of only a few, Bod of ks that all citizens should feel that are call- to take part in them. By it we mean hn a call is sent out for the man- r of Oshawa to join in an united effort do something for the city's welfare, the ssponse should be spontaneous and on a gale in keeping with a city of 25,000 popu- ration means very little at all if it PES he. practised only by those in official positions, without the assistance of the gen- 'eral body of citizenship. It means nothing 'all if the same few men are always to be ift fighting the battles of the community. b have a real meaning, it should be pos- ble to have it practised by a vigorous force lof hundreds of public-spirited men, from all "occupations, 'businesses and professions, 'from all walks of life and from all creeds and classes, ready for service, and READY TO 2 ORGANIZED AT A MOMENTS OTICE, into a mighty force working and hting for the greater Oshawa that is the im of every patriotic heart. When the citi- 'wens of Oshawa are animated by that spirit 4n sufficient numbers, when the workers number hundreds instead of only a handful, {when co-operation becomes a vital living bing instead of a mere shibboleth, then will be nothing on earth to halt the sss of Oshawa. A PLEA FOR EDUCATION oh Ontario Temperance Association is ms She a plea to the people of Ontario to 2 with it in the work of promoting self- Cl Lind personal abstinence and social pro- gress. This organization is heading in the Meht direction. It is planning a systematic srogram of educational activity based on the slusion that temperance is not a political @iiestion, but is rather a personal matter, and t be reaching the individuals the probleft f the mass solved. The program ! re hw is based on ung all channels of publicity and edu- icp since it is founded on a neiple, it should meet with an encour- sponse. 'Temperance people have, ot, been too prone to concentrate lation rather than on education, for- ino that before the former can be effec- o the latter must do its work thoroughly. y it should be possibl. to Sonsides the gestion nce as a moral issue, en- rely Drom polis there is a fertile dd for sowing seeds of temperance educa- with every hope that within a very few the | of Ontario will be much gelf-diseiplined in their day, apon a report of Alfred P, VON 'won't post my letters in his box." | portrait of. my wife?" AtisteBy friend, | THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, JANUARY 2z, rvs7 unanimously recommended that hereafter the industry should an- nounce its new models in November or December each year." This is a change of policy which should have far-reaching effects on the motor in- dustry, not only from the standpoint of deal- ers, but also from the standpoint of produc- tion and employment. It would eliminate, to some extent, the winter period of unemploy- ment by advancing production schedule dates and, even if it did not have effect on the actual amount of yearly employment produc- ed, it would give the men their busiest period during the winter months when living costs are highest, and when other avenues of em- ployment are not so easily available to them. It might, of course, produce some new pro- blems for the industry, but, from the view- point of the layman, the recommendation of the directors of the N.A.C.C. sounds like a sensible one. EDITORIAL NOTES In the last five months Canada exported 50,000,000 bushels of wheat more than in the same period a year ago. This is a hopeful sign, since it means a big reduction in the Crop carry-over. One cannot help wondering if the change in the contour of Niagara Falls was not stag- ed as a means of attracting more tourists to the mecca of the honeymooners. It will be splendid if Oshawa's debt and tax rate can be reduced, but that does not alter the fact that the city's greatest need is for more industries to provide employment for its people. "France intends to fix the price of wheat at $2.00 a bushel. Unfortunately, that will only apply to home-grown wheat, and not to the millions of bushels which are going to be imported from Canada.

It is evident to any observer the ad- vantageous position now held by those firms who have clung per- sistently to their advertising pro. grams regardless of the fact that during a period of several months returns were far from what might have been expected, By keeping their stores or their products or whatever they may have been promoting constantly reading public, they have not lost prestige and, now as the buying spirit shows sign of re- Tal, they are reaping the bene- 8, Those more timid than thelr fel- lows who cancelled all or a part of their advertising appropriations uow find themselves facing the necessity. of greatly increased ad- vertising expenditures, or the possibility of trailing behind those more daring competitors who realized that newspaper advertise ing was intended for use not only when business is good but also when sales are slow, Business people all over the land must have learned a valuable les- son, and ft is to be hoped that they will profit thereby. It is now up to newspaper ad. vertising departments to see that only the very best of copy be pube lished, copy thut attracts attention and has a selling punch; copy that the public vil rend and belleve, Advertisers should be instructed to edit their copy very carefully to avoid any possibility of losing the value of the space which they uy.
