THURSDAY, APRIL 9th, 1931 THE VETERANS' MEMORIAL Fourteen Years ago today the men of Can- ada jumped out of their assembly trenches and stormed the heights of Vimy Ridge to win one of the most glorious Canadian vie. tories of the Great War. Attacking togeth- . er for the first time as an united Canadian Corps, the four Canadian divisions made the name of Canada ring throughout the civil- ized world. It was a great victory, but won at tremendous cost, for when the smoke of battle had died away, thousands of the gal- lant sons of the Dominion lay on the battle- field, never to rise again. From coast to coast today, the sacrifices of these gallant men are being remembered with gratitude. They gave all they had to give, and died for the defence of their coun- try and Empire, and the dear ones they had left at home. They are remembered with pride, for they gave a new meaning to the word Canadian, and today they are honored, with reverence, by their comrades who were with them on that day, and who were spared to come back, Memorials beyond number have been rais- ed in their memory, but none quite so effec- tive or so striking as the memorial which has been created in their honor by their re- turned comrades. It is not a memorial of brick or stone. It is'a memorial of flesh and blood, devoted to the service of those who were disabled, and to the service of the wid- ows and the children of the men who did not return. It is a memorial which 'perpetuates the ideals of service for which these men died, and it exists today, solidly established on a foundation stone of service for com- rades, service for country, service for Em- pire. ' The war veteran's memorial to the fallen heroes is the Canadian Legion of the British . Empire Service League, Canada's great uni- fied organization of war veterans, an organi- zation of war veterans, an organization which has before it the sacrifices of coms rades left in a soldier's grave, and the ideals for which these comrades gave their lives, As they served in war, these men of the Legion are striving to serve in peace, so that the debt which they owe to comrades shall never be forgotten, and so that the obliga- tion they owe to Canada and the Empire shall be fulfilled. It is a great and glorious morial, and one which shall reach its full ectiveness and significance only when every man who wore the uniform in the country's time of testing is enrolled in its ever growing membership. A CHICAGO CLEANUP 'Big Bill" Thompson has passed from the stage as mayor of Chicago. By a majority 'of close to 200,000, his Democrat opponent, Anton Cermak, defeated him in an election that will long be remembered. For twelve years, Mayor Thonpson has ruled, or mis- ruled, Chicago from the mayor's chair, and during that time crime, lawlessness and graft have flourished apace, the city has been on the verge of bankruptcy, and there been municipal scandals galore. f The election result shows that the people © of Chicago have at last been awakened to '_a realization of the meaning of rule by the Thompson machine, that they have come to their senses, and are determined to clean up the conditions which have made the name of Chicago a reproach to the United States. Decency and good citizenship have at last prevailed, and have served notice, in no un- certain terms, they the people of Chicago are no longer satisfied with the type of muni- cipal administration that has been given them by "Big Bill." , The magnificent vote given to Anton Cer- "mak indicates that he must be a man highly regarded in the city of Chicago. He has had La Bp lar, and has risen from the bottom of the ladder to become a political power and a wealthy man. His face indicates sincerity, and that is the chief thing that has been lacking in Chicago's high places for the last twelve years. People all over this continent, and overseas as well, have been watching the Chicago contest with keen interest, and it "is notable that little sympathy is being wasted on Thompson, Now that the election is over, they will watch with still greater interests the 'actions of the new mayor, in the hope that a better day was really ush- ered in on Tuesday, when the Chicago elec- tors went to the polls. BUILDERS WANTED ,____ Probably the greatest "community build- er" yet evolved in the course of hufnan pro- ss is the man who will get out on the Rm » with the hammer of smiles, the saw | in Canada (outside Oshawa carrier * of courtesy, the nails of optimism, the square of rightful dealing, the plane of bro- therly love, the level of cooperation, the di- vider of petty squabbles, the chisel of under- standing, the screwdriver of faith, the bit and brace of love, the hatchet of vision, the 'chalk line of morality, the tool box of strength and the pulley of service. Take the whole "'works"---get out and do something constructive, figure on a city of fifty and not twenty-five thousand popula- tion; plan for industries, work for greater Sevelopment of social equality and-mutual- ity. 3 - The city and community builder of today must have everything good and wholesome in his make-up; he must be charitable to- ward his fellows, believing that they have power and energy. The old fashioned carpenter who goes to his daily task with a smile on his face and a direct, unswerving idea to finish the job in front of him should typify the members of civic and service clubs. We want builders of men and character, builders of cities and communities--not a flock of hungry feeders who stick their feet under the Chamber of Commerce table and the Service Club lunch counters and pat themselves on the chest, singing that sooth- ing warble--I DID IT, EDITORIAL NOTES Only a little more than two weeks now, and daylight saving will be here. These are days when the members of the Oshawa fire department are more than earn ing their salaries. Now is the time when all careful motorists have their brakes tested in preparation for the busy motoring season, Judging from the number of cars on the roads on Good Friday and Easter Sunday, this looks like being a busy year on the high - ways. Other Editors' Comment | VIEWS ARE FAR SEPARATED (Stratford Beacon-Herald) There are 46 countries represented at Rome in an effort to produce a policy for the distribution of wheat. And 80 far there have been 46 views presented, each one far removed from its neighbor. Countries in Central Europe want outside wheat kept out, and outside countries, such as Canada, say that existing trade agreements prevent that, The ' suggestion was made that wheat-growing countries reduce their acreage, but no one would second the motion, Russia says she will keep on growing more wheat than ever and will dunwp it as she sees fit, Some halt dozen countries may reach an agree- ment, but the 46 never will. They are all thinking in terms of their own advantage, and 46 selfish dele. gates never yet have come to a satisfactory conclu- sion, GOVERNMENT WHEAT BOARDS (Chicago Tribune) It would be difficult to imagine a form of organiza- tion more poorly adapted to the role of speculator than a public body, whose secrets are difficult to keep whose managers are playing with other people's money, and whose policies are inevitably subject to political pressure in the direction of an untenable market position.

NOT GUILTY An old negro stood charged with bare assault, The proceedings were as follows: County Judge (to old Negro)="You stand charged in this information with bare assault; how do you plead, guilty or not guilty?" Accused Negro--'Jedge, what yo' all mean, bare assault?" County Jusge~"To assault with your hands, I mean that you did not use a deadly weapon of any kind." Accused Negro--"I¢' Lan's Sake, joixc, Ah ain't guilty. Ah wouldn't 'sault no bear wid mah ten guage shot gun much les' wid mah hands." BITS OF VERSE | "EASTER-TIDE" This is holy Easter, Hark the restful chimes Riz is the Pleasing yf yiul rhymes, For the Saviour'sirisen, Sing it far' and wide, Let His precious wisdom Now with us abide, While the choir is praising Hig strength from above Freeing all from sorrow By His wonderous love; While the sacred lilies At the chancel side Emblems of His mercy Now with us abide. With the soothing anthem On this holy day, In the silent morning Hear the pastor pray; Since the Resurrection Christ has been our Guide Let His holy blessing: Now with us abide.

(Copyright, 1928) DIPLOPIA Part Two One of the first natural condi. tions noticeable as a symptom, will be a closure of one eye or an fuclination of the head in a cer- tain direction which creates a new alignment or level of the two eyes. Other irregularities that cone tribute to this condition are pare alysis or partial paralysis of one or more of the motor muscles of the eyes, in this case there is com- plete or partial loss of the power of these certain wotor muscles. All cases with partial logs of this pow- er may become cases of complete loss. Most cases of long standing also all the noticeable symptoms com- mon to the newer cases, the reason being that after diplopia has existed for some great length of time tho image of one eyo 8 suppressed and after suppression has existed for a certain length or time vision is gradually and luter finally lost, FARMERS DEMAND (Continued from page 1) was extremely hard to get a' satise factory price for their land. In order to further the interests of the association, three. resolutions, were passed by the meeting. The first of these which will be drafted by the secretary states that the mem. bers are not willing to settle for their land with the commission on the basis of the new legislation which leaves out the - question of the depreciation of the value of their land caused by the erection of hydro towers, and also that they arc not satisfied. with the present situa- tion as regards payment for the er. ection of tower rights, The second resolution passed unan- imously and stated that the members should receive a copy of the agree- ment drawn up between the commis. sion and the farmer. In many cases it was stated the copy was not given to the farmer, . The thigd resolution had to do with the cutting of trees and other work on the farms through which thg lines passed without the permission of the owner. In some cases the farmers had stopped the work on the lines until an agreement was made. The resolution as passed states that no work shall be done on. private pro- perty by the commission in the erec- tion of lines until an agreement has been reached between the farmer and the commission, The executive committee of the as. sociation with powers to add to their numbers were appointed to meet with the Hydro Commission in Toronto on April 15th, TRAIL RANGERS ARE ENTERTAINED Boys Had Enjoyable Eve. ning at Home of Rev. and Mrs. Wolfrain (Mrs. Blake Oke, Correspondent) Ebenezer, April 8--~Rev, and Mrs. Wolfraim entertained the Trail Ran- gers at the.
