A large crowd attended. The Bowmanville Quar- tet consisting of Ken Hockin, Ivan Woolley, Rolly Coombes and Ted Ott rendered several beautiful numbers which were much ap- preciated. Also assisting ta make the evening a success, was Dev- jtt's Fife and Drum Band. This group of young people deserves a )ot of credit for their smart ap- pearance and performance. The concert was under the auspice: of the Woman's Association who, with their husbands and familles worked hard to make the evening a success.

Ed Youngman 's Column ib à ln ýd t ýd r. ýs S s Shortly aiter this column ap- pears in print, the officiai open- ing ai the new Bowmanville Hos- pital wili be fait accompli.) We don't suppose many ai you care wbat those words "fait accompli" mean. we just throw tbem ni ta sort af tone the column up. Ac- tually, they are Latin and mean 'Would you care for mare sugar in your cofice?" Seeing as Butch and I expect ta attend the Hospital dedication at 7 p.m., July 31, wc thaught wc had better brush up on aur Latin in case we happen ta run across some doctor or nurse wha might1 greet us in Latin, wben we would like ta, be able ta reply in kind. For instance if a nurse says "Hi Eddie, Semper Paratus?" 1'1 give ber a snappy "Nil Dcsperandum, kiddo." For the benefit ai you folks who neyer learned that kind ai lingo, perbaps I'd better trans- late the above quotations. The nurse meant "you dont look so good"; my rcply means "Sos yo'ur old man. A lot ai folks tbinkC "Hani sait q mal y pense" meansN "Evil be ta hlm who sa thinks." Well, they're wrong! If a nursec bappens ta make that quatation0 the nigbt the Hospital is offici-1 ally opened, it means she is ' merely asking ber campanion ift ber slip is shawing.s I once asked a corporal in aur i outfit if he knew what "Dieu et mon droit" meant, he said, sure, it means "Don't mind me Bud, I'm O.K." Most people think when a doc- tor writes a prescription in Lat- in. that be does sa because At is the universal language o! drug- gists and doctors the world aven,S and indicates the propen amountsa ai ingredients ta be uscd. Whath a laugh! The doctar is simply o telling the druggist ta put in J lots ai water, sugar and colon andp ta be sure and soak the pon jerk b plenty. C A lawyer will probably insiste tbat the phrase, "Audi alteram partem" is Latin for "Hean the b ather side." But if you hear the 1 matran use the above phrase when addressing anc ai the Hos-m pital directans, you can bet shes g telling hlm tbey need anather tanv ai coal. Yau can plainly sec how f( nice it is ta have learned mare e~ than anc language.

We wouid like ta say a kind word, too, for the orderlies, cooks, nurses' aides, etc., wha are the unzung heroes that do so many ai the unpleasant chores around a hospital that help ta make a patient's Uiff pleasant and corn- fortable. When mny wife was a patient mn the aid Bowmanvile Hospital, we learned much about the thousand and one littie caurtesies performed by the staff aver and above the çalai duty. These kindly, helpfui acts would be performed without the siightest thought ai material reward, but out ai a bou.ndiess sYmpathy for the sufferer. We are sure ail thase people connected with aur Hospital wil appreciate a large attendance at the opening. Let's be an hand ta see their look ai pride and happiness as they show us araund their new work shop. Heaven knows they deserve it, aiter slav- ing in that other outmaded, un- handy building. When Miss Dewell snips the ribbon next Tuesday evening, we hope she wili knaw that aur prayers and best wishes are lhers for the success ai the new Bowmanville Hospital, in ail that it wili mean ta aur cammunity in years ta came.

It bas been estimated that Lten million would have ta cmi- grate from China and India every year just ta keep the papulation statianýary in those countries, but there is no place for them ta go. The mass paverty that bas, re- sulted from this condition ai things in the Orient is being cap- italized as a means ai spreading Soviet propaganda amang the people. To offset this movement the British Commonwealth has spansared what is known as the Colombo Plan, providing for a six-year pragram ai industrial de- veiopment for South and South- east Asia. The Canadian Gov- ernment has offered ta subscribe $25 million taward the scheme, an the J contlition that similar grants be madè by "other caun- tries." This is said to be a hint ta the United States, but Wash- ington bas put forward a plan ai its own. Meanwbile Cammunismi has been spreading in Asia. The Communists gained contrai by farce in China, and it would scem that part ai their policy is ta re- duce the population by mass exe- cutians and by throwing hund- reds ai thousands inta the battie for Karca, where they are being siaughtcred wbolcsale. In In- dia the mavement is mare insid- iaus and is being introduced as Socialismi or the Weifare state. But itsccms that under the new systcm in the villages, whcre the government bas taken the place ai the landlords, the gavernment officiai or tax collector is no bet- ter than the landlord's men. "In fact. he is usually the vcry same persan, with the very same re- marks ta make and the very saine threats," writes a Presbyterian social worker. "%uthermore," she says, "this government has thaught o! some new way ta get money from villagers. For ex- ample, there was a man wha cal- lected money for a ca-operative seed store but Su1dn't teUl them where the seed tS*re was ta be or when it was ta be buiît. 'I only know I'm suppoaed ta collect,' he saîd. 'There are aiways hawks hovering aver us," the old- er villagers say." In an article that appeared in The Economist (London), the In- dian correspondent for that jour- nal wrote: "Everywhere in Asia the first enthusiasm for the wei fare state has died in disîllusion, and men are beginning ta taik ai production. But so far the lib- eral state bas shown no sign that it knows how ta increase produc- tion. Most ai Asia-Mâlaya is the onliy notable exception-bas been gettîng poorer for twenty years; much ai it for fifty years. Whatever test one takes one ai- ways gets the same answer ai in- creasing paverty. And he might have added-ncreasing popula- tion. Finaricial aid and free giits of food would bring relief ta the people, but it would flot begin ta salve the crucial problem ai over- population. Such pssistance would have ta be extended indefinitely, and it would only tend ta weak- en the wiil of the people ta help themselves and change their ways ai life. Ignorance and su- perstition are the chief causes of the problem, and it can.be solv- ed only by the people recagnizing their respansibility for the child- ren they bring inta the world. Poverty in the Orient is flot a cause, but ait effect. The Indian and Chinese people are praduc- ing mare babies than they or the resaurces ai their cauntries can provide for. An interesting sîdeiight was thrown "on the problem recently by Dr. George Gilmour, President ai McMaster University. Speak- ing ta the Victorian Order ai Nurses, he said that Christianity in India "had sa lowered the in- fant mortality rate as ta ensure death by starvation ta millions ai aduits, because there was simply flot enaugh food or land avaîlabie ta meet the situation."
