THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, NOVEMBEK 5, 1931 CHILEAN NAVY 1S | DEPLORES LACK OF CUT ONE-THIRD Defeat in Recent Civil War, Causes Rigid Economy by Government Santiago, Chile,--Defeat in the recent civil war snd finaneial stringency, instead of an arms treaty, have brought about a slash of one-third in the size of the Chilean navy, a short time ago one of the mest powerful below the Equator. Several thousand men and about two hundred officers are being discharged. The battle fleet has been taken from saetive set vice and ordered into yards. destroyer scouting fleet ts the former strength has been put into commission with re- duced persommel amd the budget for 19382 will be cut about 25, 000,000 pesos ($3,000,000). Fear, for m many years ruled Chilean naval! programmes, The countyy lost to Peru once, and Chileans never forgot that fact. The Chilean sea avm eof her defenses grew until it contained oné modern: battleship with 14- ineh guns; one older hattleship; three cruisers, eleven destroyers, nine submarines, a new sub- marine mothership and new ten- der; several new naval tankers, two mine sweepers, a large scheolship, and lesser eraft, bringing the total up to about 40 craft of all siges. There were $00 officers and 10,000 enlisted men, including coast guard, maval stations' per. sonnel and the naval seademy, The navy's hudget for 1931 lists 814 officers of whom 4§E are ling officers, with an officers' salary list of 16,600,000 pesos (nearly $2,000,000). Naval courtmartials in connec- tion with the recent revelt and the acute drop in national income have slashed the navy's plans to 8 lower level, for the air corps now is looked upan as the first arm of defense, instead of the navy, on account of the vietory of thé planes over the ships in Coquimho Harbor, The enlisted personnel will drop to about 5,000 under the new programme, The officers' list will be reduced, The battle fleet, consisting of the flagship Almirante [Latorre and other major vessels, will he tied up. Four destroyers and four sub- marines emly will form the ace tive squadron. OLD-TIME GAMES Dr. J. E. Rogers Sees Great Change in Amusements of Young People Toronto, Ont.-- Charades in the big double parlors, "'dress- ing up" in the attic on rainy days, "run-sheep-run" up and down the street betweam supper and bedtime--what fun the boys and girls of 20, 30 or 40 years ago had among themselves. But how about the boys and girls of today--where are they finding their fun? Dr. J. E. Rogers, president of the Department of school Health and Physical Edu- cation of the National Eduea- tional Association of the United States, in his address to the mem- bers of the Local Couneil of Women, recently, asked. "Where are the corner lots where boys played ball under their mother's eye? Where are the parlor games, and such old favorites as pom-pom-pull-a- way?" he asked, with warmth, averring that the age of mach- ines, of crowded cities; and mass living was robbing the children of their play places, and also of their fine instinets for play ex- pression, "Spectatoritis" and "'bleacheritis" were what the children were getting instead, and the speaker felt that, with the increase in leisure, this was going to cause serious complica- tions in the future, NATIONAL PRIDE y HURT BY SIGNS Mexico City, Mex.-- Propagan- da has been started by various Mexiean chambers * of commerce in border towns to induce the Mexican government to forbid the display of signs and advertise- ments in languages other th-n Spanish, Signs in English along the Mexican-United StAtes interna- tional border are particularly eriticized. The chambers declare that Mexican national pride, as well as the inconvenience to non- English reading Mexicans, should bring about prohibition of these signs.

EVEN FOR Sale SPECIAL BIBLE FOR DUTCH IN SOUTH AFRICA First Empire Edition To Be Published in New Language Cape Town, South Africa, Nov. 3.---A great event for the Dutch- speaking section of the commun- ity as well as for the philologists interested in developments in Af- rikaans, according to The Cape Argus, of Cape Town, will be the appearance of the first complete Bible, printed in that language. There seems to be two versions of the Bible in Afrikaans, but Rev, H, P. M. Steyn, local secre- tary of the Bible Society, states his organization is only concern- ed with the official version to be published nest year. Canvasters, al present travelling the country taking orders for a family Nible, Mr. Steyn says are serving a pri- vate enterprise, and are not con- nected with the Socicts's wor, Since the recent Afrikaans re- vival there has been a clamor for a new edition of the Bible. Nearly 10 years ago an attempt was made, confined to the gospels and psalms. At that time Afrikuans was less standardized than ft is to-day, both in regard to vocabu- lary and spelling. Criticism was levelled at the work, which suffer- ed from a drawback in that the translation had been made from the old Dutch text, It was then realized that the only satisfactory way would be to obtain a re-trans- lation and this time from the original languages--Hebrew and (ireek., By request of the Dutch churches the British and Foreign Uible Society took the work in hand. A commission was appoint. ed and five well-known theolo- glans agreed to perform the task. They are: Rev, Dr, 1. D. Kestel), of Bloemfontein, Professor Dr. du Toit ("Totus" the author), Prof- ossor van Rooyen and Professor Keet of the Seminary, Stell hosch, and Dr. H. C. M, Fourie, n prominent Transvaal divine.

She repeated this twice, and begged me to allow her to tell him that I believed it, which I did; tor T am convinced it is the case, though at times his actions might have made it difficult to be- lieve.

"ENGLISH WOMEN REFUSE TO BECOME SLAVES OF PARIS Efforts to Enforce Styles of France on England Are Defeated London.--The utter failure of | so many of the extreme modes that Paris attempts to thrust on English women was commented on in a special article written by The Telegraph dress expert, From Paris there now comes the admission that all such ef- forts have been defeated. "There will be no bustles, at last, not hustles as our grandparents un- derstood them; leg-of-mutton sleeves are also outre; the waist will be small, but have none of the pinched look so fashionable vears ago," is the latest dress in- telligence from the dressmakers' Mecca, For two successive seasons the French models featured (and insisted upon) long skirts for | | formal day-time wear, The Ascot of 1930 proved their unpopur larity, for no one will forget thé: dismal disaster of the draggled' draperies in the June mud, says the fashion authority. Lopgs skirts were then temporarily re- legated to night-time, yet season Paris again pressed the long skirts, this time to their" final doom. From the point of § view of fashions for England,' they fafled, Having more or less got away vith the bowler hats, Paris, be- fore August was out, attempted to force the "top hat" which was a sort of compromise between the ugly bard brim and square crown of the Robespierre shape of long ago and the modern top-hat. Even in beaver, this shape was looked upon as a joke, Even if it were possible with clusters of curls at the back, it could not be fashionable this season, for women are returning to the "bob" and "shingle" in such numbers that there could be 80 hope for the "topper'-- England would have none of it, ¥ Daytime trouser suits for the each and weird coolie hats were designed for the summer of 1922, hey reached the London show= rooms, but the Englishwoman's sense of humor proved too much for this foolish and unsuitable mode. 100TH BIRTHDAY OF TORONTO WOMAN Toronto, Ont.--Mrs, Sarah Chan ter, Dovercouzs Road, has just ede= brated her 100th birthday.
