MONDAY, JULY 13th, 1981 {RELIEF 3 WORK PROJECTS "© It seems reasonably certain now that the jeral and provincial governments are to extend assistance to the municipal- in providing for unemployment relief works, probably along the same lines as last "year. It is regrettable that in all the dis- cussions of plans for this, the governmental representatives keep referring to next fall and winter, and do not seem to realize that _ this assistance is required now. Every day's delay is making the situation more serious, plans should be put into effect to make help {and to cope with it in a satisfactory wav. available to the municipalities at once. Only {in this way will it be possible for the city "council of Oshawa to make adequate provi- 'sion for giving work to the unemployed, and providing direct relief for those who cannot "be given work. "In spite of this, however, the council has a job to do, and it should be done without i delay. In order to take full advantage of 1 governmental assistance, it is necessary to have a program of public works which can "be undertaken to provide relief employment. It will not be an easy task, in Oshawa today, to find a sufficiently extensive program to take care of all the men who are unem-. ployed. So much work of this kind was # done last winter, that there are not many projects left to be undertaken. It is the "council's job, therefore, to thoroughly can- vass the situation, so that, immediately help is available from the federal and pro- vincial governments, the city will be ready ito start works. which will provide a sub- 'stantial amount of employment. No doubt the members of council have been giving "this serious consideration, because it is ap- parent that the council is seized with the necessity of relief measures on a large, scale Possibly it has in mind undertaking one of the large projects which has been hanging fire for. a considerable time, that of con- 'struction of a sewage disposal plant, which might possibly be undertaken as an unem- ployment relief measure. Whether this has been considered or not, ghly essential that the council should pow what works are to be started as soon s the government aid becomes available, 80 that not a single day may be lost in get- ting men to work. BUILDING UP THE SYSTEM - The Ontario Shore Gas Company, Limit- of Oshawa, which three months ago pur- hased the Oshawa gas plant and distribu- fion system is losing no time in putting into iffect the promises which were made before 2 vote was taken in Oshawa. At that $iltte; it was stated that the company was ot interested merely in the Oshawa sys- m, but was anxious to use it as head- rters for a development which would md along the lake shore from Whitby Belleville. Some critics at that time, were ather sceptical about this being done, but recent events prove that the company was nite sincere in making these tindertaking: * The latest moves made by the company brought negotiations in Belleville to te point where a vote is to be taken there in July 30, on the purchase of the Belleville the granting of a franchise, and the jing of a fixed assessment. Accord- p views expressed by prominent citi- Belleville, these bylaws will be car- 'without much difficulty, thus consoli- the eastern end of the system, Nego- ns have also been started for'franchis- the town of Trenton and the townships 'Sidney and Thurlow, adjacent to Belle- and Trenton, and the councils of these ipalities seem very favorably disposed rards the proposals. At this end of the n, the franchises have all been se- d, and the company is now in a posi- to lay its mains and supply gas to by, Bowmanville and the townships of iby, East Whitby and Darlington. progress made so far is significant intention of the gas company to do rs, and of its ability to carry out lakings. With the western end now secured, and steps being to bring the eastern section into Jine, ly | 1 sary 10. e KIN : time since gave their blessing to ya will be the headquarters gE ery larg CR AN IMPRESSIVE EVENT The program for. the annual Provincial 'Convention of the Canadian Legion, which is to be held here on August 25 to 28, as it ' is published today, indicates that this great gathering of war veterans is going to be an impressive event. Not only is the program of entertainment of a high order, thanks to the generosity of local organizations and citizens, but the provisions which have been made for the business sessions show that the delegates are coming here for a serious purpose, and not merely for a holiday. The presence in Oshawa of such notables as Earl Jellicoe and his overseas compan- ions will add a touch of distinction such as has never been apparent at any previous Legion convention, and it will have its ef- fect in swelling the number of delegates who will be present from all over®Ontario to take part in it. It will mean'a good deal of Oshawa, in a business sense, to have be- tween 500 and 600 people billeted here for from three to five days, as will be the case s0 the citizens should be making their plans to welcome this convention, and to do their best to make it one of the outstanding af- fairs in the history of the city. SENATOR PAT BURNS In view of the fact that the newly ap- pointed Senator, Pat Burns, was born in Oshawa, the following editorial from the Toronto Globe is of much local interest: "We may leave it to Calgary to be differ- ent. A city but recently known to the world as a "cowtown," now pulsing with industry and commerce, preserves its tradi- tions by holding a periodical 'Stampede'. When it desired to honor a leading citizen, Mr. Pat Burns, it arranged a banquet for his seventy-fifth birthday, and there, with- out further notice or preparation, a letter was read announcing that Mr. Burns had been appointed to the Senate. The ban- queters did not at first grasp the signific- ance of the news, and then there was a roar of cheers. "An older generation, in an older coun- try, would honor a distinguished citizen by the King declaring in a quiet chamber: 'Arise, Sir Patrick.' In this democratic land the citizenry summon the guest to a civic dinner, laud his virtues in public, and then with great subtlety proclaim the recogni- tion granted by a Prime Minister 2,000 miles distant. "Nor was the event so democratic as the above lines have suggested. Among the messages read was one from Senator Burns's Royal neighbor and fellow-rancher, the Prince of Wales, owner of the E.P. Ranch, a short distance from Calgary. And if the truth were known, it is probable the Prince would have sacrificed many an en- gagement to 'join his friends in Alberta. "Senator Burns was a pioneer rancher, and for fifty years has been raising cattle and shipping them from the foothills, He has been a leader in business, a public-spir- ited and generous citizen of Calgary, and if he cannot have a knighthood, the country offers him one of the best tributes it has, seat in the Senate." | Other Editor'sComments WHAT IT COSTS TO LIVE (Kitchener Record) : Food, shelter and clothing are the three major items of expense. It will surprise many to learn that food takes 40 per cent. of one's living expenses, or, to be exact $38.50 out of every $100, according to a survey of the Investor's Syndicate of Minne- apolis. The bulk of the food item goes for meat and fish with dairy products in second place. Shelter or "rent" takes $18.50 out of every $100 in the average home while clothing costs $14.70. The sur- prising fact is that shelter comes such a noor second to food. Actually the higher the standard of living the smaller the portion devoted to food and the larger to rent, BITS OF VERSE VOICES OF THE EARTH We have not heard the music of the spheres The song of star to star, but there are sounds More deep than human joy and human tears, That Nature uses in her common rounds: The fall of streams, the cry' of winds, that strain The oak, the roaring of the sea's surge, might Of thunder breaking afar off, or rain That falls by minutes in the summer night These are the voices of earth's secret soul, Uttering the mystery from which she came To him who hears them grief beyond control, Or job inscrutable without a name, Wakes in his heart thoughts bedded there, impearled Before the birth and making of the world. =Lampman. | BITS OF HUMOR | WHATTA WAD!

Eye Care and Eye by C. H, Tuck, Opt, D, (Copyright, 1928) Eyesight, Education and Efficiency Part 14 Hereditary conditions may be classed as crossed eye conditions due to paralysis of certain muscles at birth. Hyperopic or far-sight- edness due to malformation making the case that does not greatly change during the child's forma- tive years but remains as a 'weak- ness during the natural life. Astig- matism, Myopia and diseased cases may in a small percentage of cases also be so classed. Created conditions are those due to the effort placed upon us due to the demands of civilization in the duties and obligations we must meet. This is due to specializing on work and all of each separate part done by separate employees, in this way the variety or change from one class of work to the other which constituted the rest needed, is lost, and the worker must concentrate for longer and more constant periods without change or rest, on the whole this takes much greater effort. Concentrated ef- fort without proper periods of re- laxation makes the strain more ag- gravated, In this as in all things it is wise for each individual to so study themselves that they may know their limitations and in so do- ing may conserve for the future the energy that will be an added asset to yourself; your family and your employer, To be continued. DID YOU STOP AND THINK -- W. R. OVCHARD, EDITOR OF THE COUNCIL BLUFFS (IOWA) NONPAREIL, SAYS: THAT the enormous value of ad- vertising is not recognized and ap- preciated by the people generally. It is the great central driving motor which moves the wheels of progress forward. All people have hopes, ambitions, desires. They crave those things which make life more worth living. They are in search constantly of better food, better clothing, better homes, better en- vironment, In the advertisements written by people highly educated in this important art they find the answers to their longings. An old farmer and his wife con- cluded to sell their farm and. move elsewhere, They were tired of the humdrum of farming. They con- sulted a live real estate dealer. This man gladly listed their farm and wrote an advertisement setting forth the facts regarding its fertile acres, its shady groves, its fine old house, its springs of ice cold water, its pastures, its shady lanes, its lowing cattle and the good neigh- borhood in which it was located. The old farmer and his wife read this fine description of their prop- erty and concluded that they would keep it. Advertising written by a skilled hand made them appreciate the value of their property, They saw it in'a new light. Railroads employ skilled writers to paint word pictures of the beauti- ful scenery which may be reached on their lines. ' They appeal in this manner to human desires and get business, It is the money of tra- velers which furnishes employment to millions of people who provide them with their travelling needs, Advertising induces people to buy. It causes our dollars to move rap- idly. A dollar which changes hands ten times in a day and repeats day after day for a year is worth 3,650 times more than another dol- lar held in tife strong box of a miser who hoards his money and denics himself the improved living conditions he should buy. Our standards of living and our wa- ges per capita are the highest and best in the world. We have grown rich by buying and selling among ourselves, There are no saturation points in this country for useful commodities and foods. THE WANTS OF PEOPLE ARE INSATIABLE. KEEP THESE WANTS ALIVE BY ADVERTS. ING AND VOLUME OF BUSI- NESS WILL INCREASE AS SURELY AS, TIDES RISE AND FALL. ANNUAL PICNG OF SUNDAY SCHOOLS AT PORT BOLSTER In Spite of Heat Many Claremont People Were. in Attendance . Claremont, July 8--Thursday, July 2nd, was one of the hottest days on record but jt did not lessen the at- tendance at the annual picnic of the Baptist and United Church Sunday Cchools held at Port Bolster, on Lake Simcoe. A bus from Oshawa and a large truck from Claremont: conveyed those who were not ac- commodated in private cars, Con tests and games were enjoyed by Strain! to be the favorite recreation, Those who went in the bus ex- perienced considerable delay and disappointment as it was not in good running order when it arrived here so had to wait for repairs, Far- ther north it again went out of commission and the occupants were again obliged to wait until another bus arrived from Oshawa. Many at Funeral Many friends and relatives at- tended the funeral of Mr. Thomas Hardy which took place from her late residence on the 7th concession, Pickering, on Saturday afternoon last. The circumstances attending . | her untimely death on Wednesday evening, July 1, were very sad, She and her husband were returning home late in the evening and at the top of Greenwood hill the dif- ferential broke in his car. In her nervous excitement Mrs. Hardy suddenly jumped fracturing her skull and death resulted almost in- stantaneously. Had she remained in the car she would not have been injured as her husband managed to guide it into the ditch without any mishap. Mr Hardy did not realize what had happened until the car stopped and the shock to him was great. He and his bereaved family have the sympathy of the entire community. The funeral service was conducted by Rev. A. McLel- lan. Interment took place at the Union Cemetery, Claremont. The little three-year-old son of William and Mrs. Spenceley, of Ux- bridge met with a tragic death on Sunday last while visiting with his parents at the home of his uncle while visiting with his parents at the home of his uncle, Edward, of Mount Albert. There he found a bottle containing nicotine and expir- ed in about three minutes after hav- ing swallowed some of it. The de- ceased was a nephew of Mr. Jack Spenceley, of Claremont. He and his tamily attended the funeral in Uxbridge on Tuesday afternoon, July 7th, Mr. Ed. Spenceley and family also resided here a few years ago. Decoration Day The annual Decoration Day Ser- vice was held at the Union Cemet- ery on Sunday afternoon, July 5th, when a large crowd assembled to pay their tribute of respect in mem- ory of their friends and rélatives who have been laid to rest there. The grounds were beautifully decor- ated with plants and cut flowers. W. E. N. Sinclair, K.C, M.P.P,, of Oshawa, was the official speaker for the occasion and delivered an im- pressive address. Music was fur- nished by the Claremont Male Quartette and Mr. Walter Kerr, of | Ashburn, soloist. An injeresting event took place on Friday evening last when the Choir and officers of the Baptist Church assembled at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Evans Ward and pre- sented them with a shower of use- ful 'and costly gifts, in honor of their recent marriage. Mr. Ward has been a member of the choir for many years and Mrs. Ward has been an active worker in the church also. A most enjoyable evening was spent by all. Mr. Wm. Graham, of Cairnbridge, met with an unfortunate accident at his home on Friday last when his foot slipped and he fell on the floor striking his elbow, the force of the impact fracturing his collar bone, Mr. Graham has barn confined to his bed since, as he was not in good health previous to the fall and is suffering from shock as well as from the fracture, The three young men from Brougham and vicinity, who de- stroyed a number of mail boxes on R.R. 2, Claremont and whose trial took place at Pickering on Tuesday evening, were most fortunate in be- ing given a chance to change their mode of living and to seek differ- ent companions. It is to be sin- cerely hoped that they will have the wisdom to profit by this opportunity which has been given them. The heavy rain on Sunday night relieved the intense heat which pre- vailed last week, besides being of untold benefit to crops and other forms of vegetation, Mr. and Mrs. Bert Ham, of Tor- onto, are enjoying a two week's va- cation with the latters' parents, Mr. and Mrs. T. Sanderson and other relatives in the vicinity. Many from outside places attend- ed the Decoration Day Service at the Union Cemetery on Sunday af- ternoon, Little Miss Sybil Shaver, of Brougham, is visiting her grand- n»ther, Mrs. R.
