SSWEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 2nd, 1931 The New Utilities Building This evening the new office building by the Oshawa Public Utilities en will be formally opened by "the Hon. J. R. Cooke. The completion of "this handsome structure marks a new step forward in Oshawa's civic development. "This is the first modern building to be "erected in. Oshawa for the conduet of the public business by any civic body, and the members of the commission are to be com- 'plimented, not only on the splendid provi- sion which they have made for the various departments with which they are charged, but also for the foresight which persuaded them to erect a structure worthy of the _ city, and sufficient to meet its require- ments for many years to come. The building itself is a credit to Oshawa. It is handsome in appearance, and its in- terior arrangements are such as will give 'ample accommodation to all the work of e commission. In fact, for the present _ at least, it should be possible to relieve the "eover-crowding in the city's offices across the street by making an arrangement for the transfer of one or more of the city's : ' departments into the new building. This, however, could only be a temporary ar- rangement, for the time must soon come, if business continues to show improvement, ~_ when the city must follow the example of Sia ;seon business concerns. BH" "There is liable ¥ i & | this { the utilities commission and erect a muni- "¢ipal building to take care of all the de- 'partments of civic administration. "= In complimenting the commission on the 'opening of the new building, we cannot re- frain from commenting on the splendid * service which this body has given to the citizens since it was first elected in Janu- Ary, 1980. Its management of the electric .~and water departments has been efficient "and business-like, and its method of dealing th the gas plant situation has resulted in ngements which have already proven )eneficial to the city. The opening of the home of the commission should be pro- d ive of even greater efficiency in its ppevations. The provision of adequate and ntralized quarters does have that effect So, from every standpoint, the citizens might well feel ~proud of the structure which is being form- ha uly and officially opened this evening. : County Pupils at O.C. V. 1. to be a squabble between the Oshawa board of education and the * Ontario. county council over the former _body's decision to ban all county students whose fees are two months or more in ar- réars. The county council cannot say that it did not have warning that this was going take place as the requests of the board were not met, for the matter was placed ly and squarely before the council at its recent meeting. The situation, as it stands today, is that * the county council is required to pay eighty cent of the cost of the maintenance of 4 dents at the collegiate and vocational institute, but the law leaves optional the question of paying one hundred per cent of his cost by the county, this to be done by agreement between the two bodies. So far, the county council pays the eighty per cent only, and the balance is collected in fees from the students. Durham county, on the other hand, pays the full one hun- dred per cent on all its pupils attending the : Oshawa school. . The eighty percent arrangement with Ontario county might have been satisfac- tory had the students paid their fees, but some two score of them are in arrears, and, unwilling to ask the ratepayers of Oshawa to pay the balance of these education costs, 'the board of education has decided to ban > students until their fees are paid. he Gils igruative, paturally, ia for the ario county council to make up the dif- e between the eighty and the one indred per cent. ' From the standpoint of the board, this the only action to take in fairness to the payers of Oshawa, The people who pay Jie s for We by cin sufficient bur- ns to meet, without having to pay part the educational costs of those who are of the board of education is the merubersjof the board will le" difficulty in justifying it to to whom they are respomsible, name- i. - * what should I ¢ nts of the city.

And on top of that, the wheat championship was once again won by Herman Trelle, the wheat king from Wembley, Alberta, d Success of so sweeping a character at so important a show means something to Canada. It shows that, for quality, the grain from Canada beats everything else on the American continent, This kind of quality counts in the world wheat markets. 1t tells the reason why Great Britain is willing to pay a premium for Canadian wheat. It gives us the reason why, when there are wheat markets available, Cana- dian grain is able to compete on a little better terms than other wheat-growing countries. Quality in any kind of product counts in these days of keen competition, The fact that Canada swept the prizes at Chic- Out of 72 ago shows that the grain growers of this® country, while seeking quantity production, are at the same time concentrating on quality, and are producing wheat which makes Canada stand out as the greatest of all wheat-producing nations when it comes to delivering a product that stands without a peer in the world. Editorial Notes A question often heard on the streets yesterday was: "When are the Massed Choirs to give a repeat performance of last night's Concert ?" Geperal Motors zone managers report that business conditions are much better all over Canada. That should all bring grist to Oshawa's mill.

H. Tuck, Opt. D (Copyright, 1928) Industrial Accid®nts; An Ounce of Prevention Part "8" : There are many industrial acci- dents of an external nature a few more of which I will touch upon before going into those which will be considered from their external as well as from their internal ei- fects. But I will take this oppor- tunity of saying before it is over- looked that these comments are ap- plicable as are many others and I hope they may be the means of cre- ating thought because only the worker and all connected with the work know the danger to which they. are laid open and it must be expected that one who is not con- nected with the work can only con- jecture in some points and advise against the danger impending, knowing that it is so hard to win back that which by a few moments neglect may be lost forever. The tools with which we work | may be the cause of trouble, It | is true that a workman is known by | the tools with which he works and if tools are carelessly handled they | may be the cause of accident to the user as well as to others an | besides the tools themselves show evidence of carelessness in their care. If properly cared for they not only eliminate the danger but are in better shape for work. Chis- els with mushroomed heads or hur- red edges are likely to be the cause of danger by throwing chips when used.
