D, Tresidder, representative, TUESDAY, MAY 19th, 1931 MEMORIAL PARK The plea of the Canadian Legion that Memorial Park be preserved for the pui- pose for which it was intended, that of a hallowed beauty spot consecrated to the memory of the men of Oshawa whose names appear on the city's war memorial, has fallen on receptive ears, and the city council has made provision to impress on the minds of the people of this community that this park is mot intended as a play ground, nor as a means of taking a short cut from one street to another. As was pointed out to the council a few weeks ago by a deputation from the Legion, the ap- pearance of the park has been impaired by the practice of using it as a thoroughfare thereby wearing deep paths in the grass, and by the practice of certain young men and boys of using it as a baseball field. The council has expressed its sympathy with the plea of the veterans in a tangible way, and has set aside a sum of money to re-sod those sections of the park which have been worn bare of grass, and to provide for the planting of shrubs to beautify the park. Canadians who have visited the old coun- try since the close of the war have mar- velled at the reverence with which memor- ial parks and war memorials are regarded over there. They are looked upon as hal- lowed shrines, to which the relatives of the fallen heroes pay periodical visits, to honor the names of the unforgotten dead. No citizen in an English town would think of passing a war memorial without uncovering his head. That tribute of respect is looked upon as a simple duty which comes natur- ally, and it is done by everyone. Unfor- tunately, the people of this country have not been educated to have the same regard for their war memorials, but surely it is not too much to ask that they respect them to the extent of helping to preserve them for posterity as shrines of beauty. The Osh- awa city council is to be commended on taking its responsibilities in connection with the memorial park seriously, and it is to be hoped that the lead they have given will be followed by the citizens, and that the park will become in very truth a sacred place to the people of this city in this gen- eration and the generations to come. OSHAWA'S MUSICAL FESTIVAL Tonight and tomorrow night the citizens of Oshawa are being afforded a rare privil- ege in a musical sense. Under the leader- ship of Leonard Richer, director of music in the public schools of the city, the child- ren of Oshawa have developed musically to a remarkable degree, and this evening, at the auditorium of the Collegiate and Voca- tional Institute, fifteen hundred of them will demonstrate the value of the training which has been given to them. Last year, the first musical festival was held in Oshawa, and on that occasion the hundreds of citizens who attended were amazed at the state of efficiency which the children had attained in the rendition of high-class music of British origin. Since then, they have had an additional year of study and training, and those who have been in touch with the children during the last few months of intensive preparation for the festival are unanimous in declaring that a pleasant surprise awaits those who attend the festival tonight and Lomorrow night. This is true, not only of the vocal work of the hundreds of children who wiil take part, but in the playing of the Little phony Orchestra, made up entirely of public school children, a musical organiza- tion which won high praise when it played at the Ontario Educational Association con- vention in Toronto recently. One of the difficulties in staging a festi- val of this kind is that people are prone to discount an event of this kind because it is local in character. They have developed a tendency to look to outside the city for high-class entertainment of this kind, with- out realizing that in their own community there is talent equally as good as can be found elsewhere, talent that is worthy of support, That is the case with the Pubiic Schools Musical Festival. The children of Oshawa have had the advantage of splendid training, and they are now ready to present a program of great merit. We bespeak for them the hearty support of the parents, of the adults of Oshawa, in the form of capa- city audiences at the auditorium tonight and tomorrow night, when they will be agreeably surprised by the quality of music that the school children of Oshawa,~--their Ls children--are capable of producing. a RRR » WILLING TO CO-OPERATE One of the gratifying features which has arisen out of the difficulty over harbor ac- commodation, and the plans adopted to remedy this difficulty, has been the appar- ent desire of thé coal agents and dealers of the city to co-operate in expediting the be- ginning of work on the harbor improve- ments. These dealers and agents have as- sembled on the wharves thousands of tons of coal, brought in by water immediately on the opening of navigation. Now they have been asked to move it to another location, a process which is going to cost them a considerable amount of money. Yet, in or- der that they may not be held responsible for delaying any improvements at the har- bor, they have willingly undertaken to in- cur this expense, and add to their costs of doing business, so as to help the general plan. The situation has not been a satis- factory one for the coal men, but they are showing a commendable spirit of making the best of it, in the hope that when every- thing is straightened out, and the harbor extensions planned for this year are com- pleted, their troubles will be at an end, and they will be able to go ahead and develop an ever-growing coal business through the use of the enlarged harbor. THESE WEEK-END TRAGEDIES With the advent of summer, the Monday morning newspapers are carrying their weekend lists of tragedies, or automobile accidents which have, between Saturday and Monday, taken their toll of human lives and saddened many homes throughout the province. The week-end which passed pro- vided its quota of such accidents, with a toll of at least five lives lost and nearly twenty injured. As succeeding weeks pass by during the next few months, one must expect to find just such lists every Monday morning. Hard as it may seem to say it, this weekly grist of fatal accidents seen:s inevitable, seems to be a complement to the heavy traffic which pours out on the high- ways for week-end pleasure jaunts. Many of these accidents are so unneces- sary, could be so easily avoided. Take, for instance, the accident at Woodstock late on Saturday night, when three young men were killed at a railway crossing, their car being smashed to atoms by a passenger train. There was an accident which seems 80 unnecessary, The crossing was well- protected, with clear vision in both direc- tions, and a straight road leading to it. One can hardly understand how, except for sheer carelessness, anv car should be struck at that crossing. Yet this car went on the crossing right in front of an oncoming train. Surely the most gross type of care. lessness was responsible for that accident. The same is true of so many similar accid- ents. A little anxiety to hurry to a des- tination--a bit of a rush to get ahead of the other fellow--a little carelessness in judging distance or in keeping a proper watch on the road ahead--these little things that are unnecessary are unwise, are the cause of the bulk of these week-end accidents. Human fraility--if such it can be called--must bear the responsibility. What is the remedy ? For years motorists have been deluged with exhortations to use the utmost of care, courtesy and common- sense on the highways. If all motorists would live up to these exhortations to the fullest possible degree, seventy-five per cent, at least, of these accidents would be eliminated. Yet it seems impossible to edu- cate all motorists, because there are so many who do not seem to care. And these are the motorists who tear recklessly along the highways of Ontario, spreading death and destruction in their wake, until they, in turn, become victims of their own folly, Law enforcement on a strict basis will help, but the day of an accident-free week-end will come only when motorists, one hundred per cent of them, realize that they alone are responsible for the death toll of the highways, and that it rests with them to decide whether it is worth while to lose 2 moment and save a life, to substitute caution for carclessness, and to look upon the privilege of using the highway as a sacred trust to use it in such a way as to place no person's life in danger for a singie instant. EDITORIAL NOTES These are great days for the man who is conscientious in keeping down the weeds in his garden. - Don't forget to call for your horticultural society premiums on Friday or Saturday. Whitby council is anxious to secure a government appropriation for harbor pur- poses. The best way to start is to get the harbor plugged up with freight. It appears as if Oshawa cannot get along for very long without an engineer. Perhaps the council was a little too hasty in making City Engineer Smith's resignation effective immediately. Windsor and Kitchener are involved in a dispute as to which has the finest beds of tulips. Oshawa's might see that this city is also entered in the contest by next year. If the Hon. G.

Council of Canada MILK DRINKS IN SUMMER Summer is upon us again and during the hot days we desire cool, refreshing drinks. There are many drinks--pleasing to the taste, but they are not thirst quen- chers nor have they nutritive qualities. A noted dairy specialist, Miss Helen G. Campbell, says: "There are only two drinks, water and milk, 'which are suitable for all the seven ages of man. Tle first--water-----quenches thirst, and is a refreshing drink. The sec- ond--milk--quenches thirst, and also provides nourishment, Water and milk are essentially the drinks of the lower animals, milk being the matural drink for the young. Man however, has invent- ed many kinds of drinks, com- erclalized them, and they are on the market by the dozen. None of | these can equal a cool refreshing milk drink. First T wish to say a word re | the food value of milk. Experience | and a scientific study have demon- strated that milk is thé oniy food for which there is no effective substitute, It is high in protein, contains all the known vitamins, | and is so constituted as to en- hance the value of other foods. It is one of the so-called authori- tive foods," and medical authori- ties recommend that every one take a daily portion of milk, boys and girls who have milk re gularly all through childhood have a better foundation of health | tp carry | more rugged bodies them through life than those who have little or no milk, Milk is not only a builder, it is a repairer | as well, A noted leader Scouts moyement the mest important diet at Boy Scout Camps, because milk builds healthy bodies and alert minds.

"Milk i in nfant, 'the a youth, must logical food notod "1 drink lots of milk. ted the habit of dring milk thirst quencher.' I've cultivo- fcod value of milk, but we've said enough to convince any sceptical on the food value milk. Now there are many milk drinks that are thirst quenching and nourishing. Perhaps the first that we could mention fis butter-milk. Butter-milk comes from the churning of cream after | | the butter is taken from fit. In home-churning days traces of old buter- it somewhat This the kind that creamy. woe In this age of commercial butter- | making, there is practically no butter-fat left in the butter-milk. In this age cream is churned at a | consequently | lower acidity, and the hutter-milk is less acid and has a pleasing taste, Dutter-milk has not only a high food value, but has also a corrective dietetic value in that the lactic acid has a healthful influence on the diges- tive organs. There is an old sav- ipg, "Drink Butter-milk and live to be 100 years old." While this may not be a infallible statement yet medical science recognizes the of good butter-milk as a food. It is often prescribed hy doctors for babies with weak di- gestion, and for older people with other disorders, while healthy people are advised to drink more | of it. It is easily digested and a: similated owing to the lastic acid bacteria. Few milk beverages have gained greater popularity than buttermilk. It is a universal favor- ite, and is greatly .used for 'its beneficial effects and for its fla- vor. Butter-milk may not be the equal of pure whole milk as a nutrient, but it is valuable be- cause if its easy digestibility, as the whole milk contains the pre- cious fat that health and growth and in order to get full nourish- ment the hutter-milk drinker should use one glass of whole milk per day in order to aid in optimum nourishment, After all, butter-milk is no new drink, as it has been used for many centuries in all parts of the world, There is an ancient Hindu proverb that--"men may live without bread, but without butter- milk they die." We are told that Shavrigé Ok THAT the growth and perman- ent prosperity of a city is meas ared entirely by its commercial activity, It is also required means of livelihood for living there be supplied. Spending money out of a com- munity for things that can be purchased at home js just tear- ing down those industries that make it possible for many to make a living. The prosperity of your com- munity depends in a great way on your spending your money there. Don't forget it! The business concerns of your city should have your trade not only today, but every day. BECAUSE local concerns can serve you better than those .in other cities. BECAUSE they have large stock at reasonable prices and can fill your every requirement. They are right on the spot in plain' sight and take all respon. sibility for Loods sold. They can give you better satisfaction. IF YOU AND YOUR NEIGH.

Youghut is another fermented milk having no al- coholic content, and it is a pro- duct of Bulgaria, and is some- times called Bulgarian milk. "It is make simply by adding some sour milk to fresh milk, allowing it to stand for a certain lengty of time until a lactic acid develops.

The answer Is! | "Right feeding"-- careful atten-| | tion to the food and drink which make up the children's diet. The | out-door 'life, with sport, swim- ming etc, are all conductive to a good appetite, and this should | be satisfied with nourishing food | and appetising drinks, The addition of soda water to | | | | chocolate milk or even cold skim milk slightly sweetened admirably suits palates. Children just love to drink chocolate milk or choco- | late malted milk through a straw ag it foams invitingly in a tall glass. For dessert it is a good plan to have chocolate or vanilla ice cream added to ther diet. It then becomes what a soda counter ar- tist calls a chocolate-maulted- milk-shake with ice-cream. The use of these milk drinks particu- larly in summer wonderfully help to uge up the surplus milk. There- fore it promotes sales and if the thing in hot weather, therefore is it not better to drink something refreshing and nourishing. We will just mention a few summer milk drinks. Buttermilk "Thescooling drink for het sum- mer days" may be said of this drink. It may be purchased today in hotels, lunchrooms, etc., or de. livered direct to your home. But- ter-milk is a popular drink at the places mentioned, but somehow not many folk serve it in their homes. They just don't seem to think about it, and here is where wide awake dairyman can make the most of these days by talking butter=milk in his advertising. He can build up a big market for this article and find a good income from it. Buttermilk forms a most T6- freshing drink. It tones -up the system. Buttermilk lemonade 18 good. To make it just add sugar and lemon to taste. Other cases add a sprinkle of cinnamon or nut- meg, or even add a little ginger ale or other carbonated water to gkim or whole milk. This will give a splendid snap, and make an interestin» drink. Another is to mix milk and ginger ale, gweeten to taste and serve cold. Pettermint milk is not uncommon as a summer drink, made by add- ing sugar and a few drops of es- gence of peppermint to whole inilk. and coffee can be mixed, sweetened to taste and served either hot or cold.

How To Grow Good Celery Any good rich garden soil will grow good celery. It is agross feeder and must have an abun- dance of fertility to draw upon if tender, well developed stalks are to be obtained. It the soil be- comes dried out, even with an abundance of plant foot present, succulent stalks are not likely to develop. These two things, plant food and moisture, are essential in order that growth may -go on unintepruptedly. Celery grows best the soil is damper and cooler at these times. Consequently, in growing it the aim should be to furnish these conditions as far as possible, Hot dry soils can be made cool and moist by watering. It is not a very great task to keep a small area of celery watered during the dry periods.

Dig or plough out | a space about 18 inches wide and six inches deep and into this scat- ter the manure about four inches deep. On this place good surface garden soil and mix thoroughly | in a| with the manure. Manure measure cuts off the flow of soil water from below, hence the im- portance of mixing manure and soil in order that a fair capillary movement of subsoil water to the growing plant may take place, and the plants not suffer for want of water should watering by hand be neglected. A high grade 5-8-10 commencial fertilizer applied at the rate of five ounces per square yard (1500 pounds per acre) may be thoroughly dug into the soil. To this should be added ground limestone at the rate of one to two pounds per square yard, or two to four ton per acre. On many soils it is difficult to grow celery without adding lime in some form. The plants should be set in rows 33% feet apart and 6 inches apart in the rows. We have found it sat- isfactory at the Experimental Station, Kentville, to set two rows together, spacing the rows nine inches apart and the plants eight apart in the rows, the plants in one row alternating with those in the other row. Between these dou- ble rows 4 to b feet is allowed, in order to give plenty of soil for earthing up the plants for blanch- ing. Do not set the plants on ridges. It is not necessary to set in a trench, but it facilitates watering it the ground along the row is slightly below the soil level. Af- ter planting see that the ground between the rows is kept loose with the cultivator or hoe, and the surface soil around the plants kept stirred so that less watering will be necessary. Watering tends to compact the surface soil around the plants; this upper soil, as soon as it is dry enough, should be broken by very shallow hoeing. Deep hoeing close to the plant should be avoided as the roots are shallow feeders and should not be disturbed. Celery rust, which sometime is troublesome, is overcome by using Bordeaux mixture, the plants be- ing kept covered with the mixture by spraying about every ten days. In some cases this is first used' right after the plants are estab- lished in flats.

It is because we truth of the ahove that credulous of things that are brought to our attention, And yet when every man of affairs has brought to his attention something containing real possibilities and looks back over a life well spent and success- ful, does he find that the real things are peddled from house to house?
