Tresidder, representative, i FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1931 WILLING WORKERS NEEDED The Times has on more than one occasion pointed out that the chief problem which os before the city. of Oshawa is not the reduction of the tax rate, important as that may be, not the cutting down of capital ex- penditures, although at the present time that is necessary, but the carrying out of a defin- ite, organized policy of aid to the city's in- dustrial structure. The first-named two problems would soon be overcome if, by 'adding to the city's industries, Oshawa could be made a city of 35,000 to 40,000 people. 'The city is equipped, from the standpoint of its working civic organization, for a city of ® that size, but has to finance it with a popula- tion of less than 25,000. Therein lies the secret of high tax rates, and heavy tax bur- dens. : Thus the greatest need of Oshawa today is not men who will pinch and scrape to save "a dollar here and a dollar there, but rather | does the city need men who are willing to put their shoulders to the wheel and work with heart and soul to make it possible for "new industries to be established in the city. "what it can do. b'"* which this voluntary it would reac 5 {". they The Chamber of Commerce has done re- markably well in attracting prosnective in- dustries to Oshawa, but there is a limit to It can lead the prospects only so far, and it is in leading them beyond that point that the team-work and co-operas tion of a group of willing workers can do ef- fective work. Industries, i these days, are looking for factories, ready As ag been pointed out repeatedly, Oshawa fortunately, and at the same time unfortun< ately, has no empty factory buildings to oer to prospective industries. These have to he built if an industry is to be attracted here. Here, again, the work of a band of eivie patriots would be invaluable. ; The skelton 0 * the organization is available in the Chamber of Commerce and the Indust vial Foundation. Oshawa but needs that the framework shall be filled in by men who are willing to go out and sell Oshawa lo their fellow-citizens, to enthuse them so that they will be willing to make investments in building factories for new industries. With a group of men, aay 150 zealous workers, anything is pessih de for Oshawa along this: line. They Souid, within a surprisingly short time, send Osh- awa forward on a period of tremendous ie dustrial growth. There are, or there ongh to be, 150 such men in Oshawa, rea 8 0 serve their community in this way. Eo 'the problem of organizing them, of pu ing them into harness as a vitalizing force ior the welfare and development of the city in- 'hich has ly, is the greatest problem wi gap in promoting the growth of the Oshawa.

" EDITORIAL NOTES For boys who are carrying on under dif- ficulties, financing their own work, and de- voting time and energy to the Sea Scouts . Troop of Oshawa is deserving of a great deal of credit. Public, opinion can hardly be blamed for being suspicious regarding civic adminisira- tio2 when important public affairs are dis- cussad in secret. The open door provides the best means of dealing effectively with rumors and false reports. The report of the Women's Welfare League shows how fortunate it was that the people of Oshawa subscribed $32,000 to the welfare fund, instead of the $15,000 fixed as an objective, . .Egg prices are going to be higher, says a poultry expert. This will be welcome news to the farmers, who are far from getting a square deal at the present prices. Chairman Legge of the federal farm board of the United States, savs a wheat shortage is threatened. We wonder if this is a hope or a prediction. Merch '1.ts are finding out todav that the best way tc combat poor business is to ad- vertise. It is almost superfluous to say that the debate on the sale of the gas piaul will be productive of a good deal of hot air. Other Editors' Comment SATIRE (St. Catharines Standard) The editorial satirist of The Vancouver Sun scores one in the 1ollowmg: In a democracy like Canada, the same prob- lems conitont both rich and poor. Down in Ottaaw, it is said, wives of cabinet ministers coi.tinually wonder where they will sit at table, All over the country thousands of unemployed are wondering precisely the same thing! Equality at last! Deniuc is a high-sounding word with consid erable cmptiness, as everyone knows, What we arc building up in C for lack of something better, is a plutocracy along the plattern of the U.S.A. The country has (i the historic system of having citizens honored by the King for service to mankind, hence an aristocracy of brams, culture and self-sac- rifice is out of the question. But this new freedom from old tradition and form docs not relieve the ai- fluent from social aspirations and the desire for pres- tige which is inherent in human nature, BITS OF VERSE | THE GRIEVANCE I thought | had a grievance And Oh, I hugged it tight [ put it in my bosom And « .ddled it all night. | coud not find my grievance When God's new morning came, A ittle prayer had sinothered it And buried it in shame, racy wda carued BARRA Loneroid and heather, the curlew's sad thrill, Surge, moan, and thunder of pitiless seas, Mist, a grey pall, blotting out rock"strewn hill, Dimming blue peaks of the far Hebrides. There rests my heart. Tang of gold sea-weed, sweet scents from the moors, Peat-reek and heather, and scent of wild thyme Scents that will haunt me while life still endures-- Hill streams that sing me a fairy-born rhyme There rests my heart. Wild winds, scourging sleet storms, radiant sunshine, And, upon bare hillside, blue as the sea, Bluebells that greet me, on dark days and fine-- Gentle, serene, in lonely dignity-- There rests my heart. Jean Lang, in the Glasgow Herald. BILS OF HUMOR F FOR FIRST Mose--What an de signification of F when yo'all say 'Company F ob de Cabalry'- Sambo--Dat mean bein' first in eberything.

THE GOOD CAUSE Two men attended a village church tea for which thestickets were sixpenice cach. The profits were to go towards providing comforts for the aged poor of the village. One of the men, after accounting for four eups of tea, eight sandwiches, three plates of sbread and butter, five jam tarts and four small buns, was passing his cup for the fifth time, when he turned to his companion who was also doing well, ard said: "I think everyone should encourage a thing of this' sort, as it's for a good cause." ' QUITE IN ORDER A newly-appointed officer gave a dinner to his company. Addressing the men, he said jovially: "Now, fall upon the food without pity. Treat it as if it were the gnemy." K At the end of the dinner he observed a sergeant sneaking away with two bottles of wine. "What are you doing?" he asked. "Observing orders," was the reply. "When you don't kill the enemy you take them prisoners." TOO TRUE! Its just the old problem of distribution. There's cnough idleness for everybody, but the wrong people' have it, It is funny that there never is auy static in evid- ence when a wife begins fo broadcast a little private lecture with her lesser hali of ge receiving end. Eye | Care and Eye Strain by C. H. Tuck, Opt. D. (Copyright, 1928) MUSCLE STRAIN--PART THREE This condition, like the other, may be associated with a muscle weakness or deficiency which may lead to an actual turning of one eye or in the case of the alternat- ing condition, a turning of first one eye and then the other. Many of the cases where an ac- tual turning exists are followed by the straightening of the eye after the period of suppression has been succeeded by an actual loss of vision or of sufficient weakness of vision as will not permit the image as seen by the onc eye to be properly associgted by the brain with the image of the other eye and as all vision is mental, it is readily understood that the lack of the interpretation of these im- ages is really lack of vision. How foolish then it may be in many cases to let the condition go uncorrected with the hope of growing out of it. Think of the chance that is taken of vision never being regained or. the many physi- cal condition just enumerated, connected with conditions of this kind that may develop into reflex disorders of the system and In many years to come our old chronic disorder will set up reflex associations along nerve pathways and an eye trouble will become painfully noticeable which really existed and was the primary causc of all the trouble. (To be contnued) That rightly directed public spirit will do wonders. An individual can't alone, It takes a large number to get results, In working for the home ecity, all functional or personal griev- do much ances, petty .mulice and jealousies hould be forgotten, When the community is fillea | with a progressive spivit and every {citizen works toward a common end in a united and harmonious {way, then they will get results, When this Is | move forward rapidly.

The two combinations of players who should play Back and Front Are [=~ (1) Equally good players but one pester at the back and one at the ront, ¥ (2) Where one player is better than the other and the weaker player is more inferior in back court, In the first case, the players bein equally good will each take about hal the. court, but the good net player will always be up and the good Back player behind. 1f driven to play sides, each can take his own half of the court. The second class covers nearly all Mixed Doubles pairs where one part- ner is much weaker than the other. Very few ladies can hit hard emough to play Sides against a man and should therefore be at the net. The net player must go forward and the back player back immediately after serying and this is the reason for the different varieties of service for back and front players. 'The net player should only take the bird when he can make a kill dr at least an effec- tive shot. Everything else should be allowed to pass to the back player, done, business will | home con- | § employment and | city. ; men should pull | CONCERNS | THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1931 Keep Free From Fat--Feel Younger Unlike most salts, Kruschen isn't simply a laxative-sif that's all you want any kind of salts with any kind of a label will do--but is that all you want? When you take Kruschen Salts you not only stimulate your bow- els, liver and kidneys to function naturally and perfectly, but you supply every internal organ, gland, nerve and fibre in the body with nature's own revitalizing and re- Juvenating minerals. Got a bottle of Kruschen Salts at any drug store--take one-half teaspoon in a glass of hot water every morning before breakfast cut down on sweets and fat form- ing foods and get some moderate oxercise--in just a few days indol- ence changes to activity and life grows brighter. A Virginia woman writes: "I just started on my second bottle of Kruschen Salts and have been los- ing flesh right along--you have tathomed the secret of flesh re- duction." BRITATY EATS IN DISARMING London, Feb. 7.---Contending that Britain has led the way in re- duction of armaments and her ex- ample has not been completely fol- lowed by other powers, the Navy League of Great Britain had issued a phamphlet over the signature of Lord Lloyd, president, pointing out the concrete reductions in British naval strength that have been ef- fected. Including the naval forces of the dominions {it {s shown that the nufm- ber of fighting vessels has been re- duced from 1,906 at the Armistice Salada Orange Pekoe makes an exquisite cup of tea A' to 426 as of October, 1930. Ton- nage in this period was reduced from 3,191,893 to 1,491,120. The number of cruisers was cut from 128 to 64. In 19% eo personnel of the Brit. {sh Navy fas reduced to 97,060, compared vith 114,600 for the United Sftes and 80,000 for Japan, it is ehg@. and Monday and Monday.
