COL, Outfitter for Men, Young Mon and Boys Opposite Bank of Montreal Bowmanville -I THE EDITOR TALKS For 1920 the last year for wbiclh offiiai figures are available, the Ot- ta-wa Goverament had to pay out the enormious sum of $76,886,356.00 te rail-ways to meet their defiits-over $9.00 for every man, woman aad cbild in the country. Wbo's te blame? We are devoting congiderable space to the educational campaîgn respect- ing the engaging of a community nurse by this towa. It is to be re- gretted that electors were not given a chance to express themselves for or against through tbe ballot box at the municipal elections, because it is a pretty expansive proposition for members of the towa council to de- cide on their own responsibîlity. Miss Heeiey bas accompiished a wonderful amount of community work durinzg the period she bas been la town and we believe many parents and cbiidrea will have good reasons in the future to bless the day she came to Bowman- ville. But every question bas two sides and as this one is an expensîve undertaking, it should be fully dis- cussed from the various angles. We are wonidering what are the views of the five medical men ini town. Tbey should be beard from beforeý definite action is taken by the authovitieS. We bave advocated for years plaating tbe sand-ride running across the nortb-end of Clarke and Dar- lington townships with black thimble bernies, the variety of berry that grew se Thriftly and produced so prolifically when tbe writer lived near what bas long been known as the Pine Ridge away back in the year's 1855 to 1870. Tons of thimble ber- ries were gathered annually then, people driving in family ioads from all parts of these townships and'hav- ing a day's picnicking la the heavily laden berry patches. The bernies grew to enormous size and ieagts- two inches being common. Oaa reason wby the sand ridges will pro- duse prolific blackberry bushes is that the roots grow down into the eartb at considerable depth drinking up the moisture. Now we note that Scotch pines have made remarkable growth on some sand bis la Welling- ton county where 7000 Scotch pines are growing se vigorously, those planted for 8 years beiag noew 12 to 15 feet in beight. N- doubt Canadian nurserymea canrgzve fuir- ther reliable data about !,ý f1-records of Scotch pine trees for pLnting in sand hbis. A great joy and satisfaction are usualiy experiancad in listening to an address or lecture by a bighly educated person, and we shail ba pardoned if we shah so add espaecially "if that person be a teacher of wide exparience". We make this remark to direct attention to the report of Sir Robert Falconer's address ap- pearing in another columa. The arguments advanced ln tbat address are wortby of the sincere considera- tien of every parent in this country as weli as every aducationist. The time, thought and moaay being speat on the education of the youtb of this country shouid bear abundant fruit in development of leadership in the graduates of our schools, coi- ]PL-es and universities. We like Dr, Falconer's definition that "Educationi is the developmant of our mental and moral 1powars". We hope our read- ers wili read, learunand inwardly di- orPst the dlaims Dr Palconer advances: "«That a highly educated communityl makes a more productive community"ý This is a thougbt wail werth serlous- lv considering by ail schooi trustees and others interested in education. Possibly no column la this issue will be rend with keener interest and more peculiar feelings than the list of deaths recorded la the inter- ments for 1921 la Bowmanville Came- tery. It used to be a ganeral opinion that a third of the people bora into the world die before tbey reach 33 years of age. A scan of this iist will show that as far as it is a record of the deatbs la this community it is by no menas the trutb. The most remarkable featune of this list is the few children of scbool age in Bowmanville and vicinity who died la 1921. Overlooking the stiliborn and infants only il childrea are in this list, while there are 32 seventy on over, several of theai over 80 and a few over 90 years. It is worth while to considen the efforts necently being made by a nProviniComn lf it r Ln r- a it (1 .s ae S "THE FOUR HORSEMEN" Rex Ingram's Million Dollar pro- duction of "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" was sbowa at the Royal Theatre last week to delighted audiences. It is an outstandiag example of the remarkable develop- ment of motion pictures. "The Four Horsemen" is the su- preme expression of the great war. Certainly no novel has stirred the universal appeal created by the Iban- ez masterpiece. The book, now in its one bundred and sixty-sixth edi- tion bas heen read througbnut the world. The monumental task of transferriag it to the screen was ac- complisbed by June Mathis, wbomade a scenario that from ail accounts has preserved the force of the original and in many incidents heightened it. But it. is the director, Rex Ingram, who has apparently achieved the most sensational success. 11e is reported to have set a new mark in antistry of picturization. BEING A GOOD CITIZEN ,j'Citizenship has a duty for every citizen, not simply on election day, ail the year round, and if necessary as a municipal nominee, ready, to rstand for election. To be a good 1citizen is to be a good friend and neighbor. It is to manifest loyalty and integrity in business relations. Good citizenship acts to build up not alone the prosperity of a private con- cern, but the welfare of commerce and trade in general. The good citi- zen, singly or corporately, pays his debts. He does not keep others waiting for the money they have earned and therefore owa. 1He bas an instinctive horror of borrow- ing without a definite and under- stood prospect of repayment. Hie keeps his appoiatments. He re- spects the rigbt of the men to the samne consideration from him that he wants for them. '1He feels that as each man does bis part, is true to his own trust, minds his own business, is responsible and reliable in his own person, the average level of credit and prestige for the whole community wvil1 nise. Cîtizenship menas a real- ization on the part of one man that ail men are helped or hindered by bis individual performahnce. The mean and discreditable things we do that count against us react on the rest as well. As ani army is judged by its soldiers, a club by its under- graduates, a community is judgedby its citizens. The patriot brings dis- tinction on his home town. Citizen- ship, in the full round of its aIl-en- compassing circle, takes in even the domestic demeunor and the private life. You cannot caîl a man a good citizen who is unfathful-or even unfeeling-in those intimate obliga- ons of the home and the family that are the test and the revelation of character. 11e is not to be praised if at the banquet board or in the crowded auditorium or a church as- semblage he has mucb to say about the virtues, while at home, behind the doors, where the curions world does not obtrude, his practices are miean and despicable. The good citi- zen, wberever he may be and what- ever he is doing, has no reason to "fear the light." PORT HOPERS HAPPY Mr. W. A. Campbell Appointed 1Police Magistrat.. The Guide bas mucb pleasure in announcing that the Attorney Gen- eral of the Province, Hon. W. E. Raney, bas recommended the Lieut. Governor to appoint Mr. W. A. F. Campbell Police Magistrate for this town of Port Hope, with jurisdiction fhroughout the County of Durham. We congratulate our good fniend most heantily upon this evidence of coafid- e~nce on the part of the Ontario Gov- ennment. Mr. Campbell is eminent- ly qualified for a judicial office, aadi we trust he will be long spared to Il1 this honorable position. lati he Guide is assured that it is expressiagl the unanimous opinion of the elect- ors of this district.1 How Many Invitations Did You Send Into your business you are daily putting ail your thoughts, energies and executive ability, in order to preserve intact the capi- tal invested, build up your volume of busi- ness and produce a profit.

CANADIAN CLUB BANQUET Sir Robert Falconer Delivers Fin, Address on the Place of Educa-, tion in the National Life-. "Education is the second Line e our National defense, it is our grea National Insurance and it is utte folly to neglect to puy the premium' said Sir Robent Falcener speaking tq Bowmanville Women's Canadini Club at the meeting on Mondny ever ing. The event was empbnsized by banquet wben the members brough their busbands and frlends and an joyed a social heur previous to Dr Falconer's address. The banque- was served in St. Paul's Scbool-nooir covers being laid for about 90. Th( menu was prepaned and served b3 Mrs. A. T. Christie and ber haiper and was a most tempting and ap. petizing one consisting of grap( fruit salad, hot noast chicken, dness. ing and gravy, mnsbed potatoes, pea and jellias, appie pie witb Devon. sbire creana nd coffee. After everyone bad done fui' justice to the well-preparad meal, tbe President, Mrs. (Dr.) A. S. Tii- ley, introducad the speaker of the evening, Sir Robent A. Falconer, President of the University of Tor- onto wbo she said wns a very busy man, and the club feit higbly honored in baving hlma address them and gneatiy appreciated bis coming. Dr. Falconer said ha fait it a great eppertunity to be allowed to addresq a Canadin Club as it was a great opportunity for the women who con- stîtute the membership to belong to such a club. Tbese clubs are being established ln very many towns in Canada. Dr. Falconer said be weuld speal on "The Lif e 1 Lead" or "Educatior and tbe Function of Education in National Lif e". Ia bis visit to Great Britain last yenr, be bad observec that England had become thoroly, awake to the need of the develop- ment of education. On account of unemployment, and other depressing conditions, there was a tandency nol to spend 50 much moaey on educa- tion as la former years. England toda y isandenvoning to ne- duce exjpenses, and some propose to lessen the amount spant on educa- tion, but tbis bas resulted la a ioud pnotest led by Lord Burnham, ona of the British journalists wbo vlsited Canada iast summer, the ownar of the Daily Telegraph of Lond on; and the hope is that. though economics will be effacted in other lines, the amouni spent on Education may not be re- Sir Michael Sadiar, oaa of tbe iead- ing aducation authonities of Engiand necentiy said "Education hs a second lin-e of defeace for Engiand. Edu. cation is the insurance against dis. aster to Engiand, and it wouid ha ut. ter f oihy to neglect to pay the, pnem- luais". What Dr. SadIer said is true. The future of a democratic country depends upon its education; there- . ........ Il fore, we must ask wbat educatien is. 1It is not iaformation, ut is not the [possession of a large amount of know- eledge. It is the development of our mental and moral powans. We are :ail made differenthy, eacb one bas bis Yown individuality. Thanafore,- if d each one is devaloped night by edu- Scation there will be gneat variety la a community. bThe batter educated any commun- iîty is the more interasting ut becomes. bThe well educated person is deveiop- -ed te tbink for bimseif. The more 0educated a community is the lass do 9 they f eiiow one another like a flock n of sheep. As thoughtful persons tbey will form their own judgments and se the community will bacome a more interesting community. It wili net be swapt 'off its feet by some remotion. It will not pick up opinions tand pass them on from moutb te mouth, many of them iii considered. Wa wilh rend oun newspnpens cniticai- hy and form our own judgments of -what wa rend. t True ýeducation aise means that we - must bave selection in our education. While ahi boys and girls bave to bc educnted in, much the same way tili -they are 12 or 13 yenrs of age, aftar that the cemmunity sbouid andeaver -te develop la themttheir nutural pew- airs in thea unes most suited for them. f For instance, today wa bave tha ba- gianing of Techaicul aducatien, tha commercial education, agnicultunai aducatiens and education for Univer- sitïes n professions. The diff an- Sences la the subjects may net be vary great but tbay exist and a goed edu- cation is givan by the use of maternaI -which gives a certain preparatien for the duties of the lina of hf a that the boy or girl îateads te folhow. It bas been said that you can over educate. This is net stricthy correct, for you cannot give tee much right aducation. You can giva tee much wreng education, but if the education is right you cannot give tee mach. * You cannot davalop the human pow- ars tee mach until tbey ane oven de,, veloped. A highiy educatad cQm>îý,,nuity makes a more productive çç»munity. Taka, for instance, the home of a marchant la a well educnted towa, lis fnmiiy is educated ia music. This; will men employaient for those wbçQ fmaka the musical instruments, ,Others of the fanmily ara interastad lan reading., The batter the çh1s o work, the nmera beautifiy lliiàstgt- ed and printad, thaenmore ampieyiwant for those who make books, for those wbo biad and priat, Others enjey pictunes. The fanrthe pitpres, tÉé more people wHil be empi6od te make them; and se on threugh lhf e, the more educated the pefrkaie the more vanied are their demands, and the more employmant of people te make thiags te meet these demanda. Aise the bighan the deands, tbe higher wih be the grade of work. The more skilied the labor is te meet the bigb deands of people, the less wl swaated labor be raquired. Edu- cata youn laborer te make better tbings. Educate your workmnn te do better work and be wihl live ina bet- tean surreunding.s. Therefore, edu- ca tien develop's the community and the farmers wil bave more people doing diffarent things te wbem te sali thein crops. An educated cemmunity will makeaa happier and more contented and a more varied cemmunity, n more pro- ý.uctiva cemmuaity, Tharefora, 'the saying of Sir Michael Sadien is truc that education is the insuranca pel- icy ngainst disaster te a country, and it wouid ha folly te neglect te puy the pnemiums, At the close of Dr. Faiconar's splendid uddress Mns.
