It is said that he con- tracted his presént illness as he stood with bared head in the rain' on Armistice Day to lay a wreath o cn the tomb of thýe unkinovi soldier. This, act -is characteristic of many other acts during the great -war. His consider- ation and help -of -the wounded and dying and of the organizations carrying on a work of mercy durizg that great conflict will always stand. forth -as one' ýof the brightest spots of bis reign. fis Majesty not onily cherishes the loyalvy, and es- teem of millions of -his subjects, but also of. subjects of other lands. Only a few days ago a prayer was;offered up for his recovery on an American batdleship Carr- ing -President-eiect Hoover. Ail eyes today in every part of -theý empire are anxiously turned towards London and towards thebed- side of the King'. And today, perhaps, as neyer,, before, ýhe people of the Empire realize the full meaning anid import of the National Anthcm and prayer-God Save the -King., T1HE CHRISTMAS CHEER FUND Whitby's Christmas Cheer Fund to provide food, clothing and a few other gifts at Christmas for those who arc in straightened circtýmstances, some through no fauit of their own, should appeal to citizens who feel that they-would like to give a little to make othters happy- "cfWhile there are in Whitby perhaps no glaring casee ofpoverty_ sucli as are ta be found in larger' centres, the fact remains that there are some who arc, in need, who are at present receiving'assistance- froi the town in one way or another, and who will not be a' eta do much lu the way of providing themselves with, eitmas comforts. -tT1~ The Committee in charge is hopeful thaiy 'n needy family in Whitby will be without a go î mas dinner, and that chiidren in need of clot swhc -are tooking forward anixiotoly toa'a visit from -Santa Claus, will hot. be disa.ppointed. -'Thi " G4éette and Ohronicle knows that it i s oniy necçssary toi tell the p,éople of Whitby that sucli needs exiat to isecure a -generous -response.

TI-IE NEW INDUSTRIAL PROPOSAL Citizens who were unable ta, attend the public meet- 0 ing called by the Tow~n Council last Thursday evening t ta discuss a proposai of a new manufacturingý companya yet ta be formed- ta erect a factory la WVhitby which willV give employment ta 60 or 70 men should read -carefullyN Îhe report of the meeting which appears ilathis issue. I The Company, not yet fully organized, is asklag fora a lban of $75,000 and the expenditure of $7,500 for thes extension of the water service to the- factory. Lu re- turn for this lban rthey propose ta give the town a first Mortgage on plant and equipment ta' cost $1 50,000 as well -as the land, donated by a public spiiteëd- citizen;f -ta, furnish a statement showing that 'the equipment ta, be placed -li the factory has an appraised value of $75,000 and ta give ta fHis Worship the Mayorthe names of reliable men' who are ta, subscribe $50.000 for worklag capital. The Company, proposes tao pay an- nually in wages between $60,000 and $70,000 andi ta incluc$e la its employees' list several1 highly paid skilled workmnen. A representative of the Company, who la;id the pro- posai before the meeting, dlaims ta have met# with con- siderable success lu past years la the manufacture of' hardwood 'fiooring and veneered doors, whýle another represèntative dlaims ta know exceedingly well the mark- et for -such products. i Some questions were asked and rightly too, about the new com-panY's financial standing sud their, ability ta furnish ample security for the towns ban. These questions were answered by the company1s represent- ativ5: and fipally a resolution was passed asking the cpfmpany to place its guarant'ees and promises la writing and submit them ta the Council. There was c onsiderable discusàion' la the meeting with the resuit that many important facts were brouglit out. Gaet TheGte and Chronicle does not propose until later, ta make any comment one way or thé other on the ladustrial proposai, but it believes that prç:perty awn- ers - sh ould acquaint themselves with ail the facts in connection therewith s0 that they may be iable intelli- g ently ta vote on the bylaw if and when it is submitted ta them. - THE MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS Three- weeks from 'next Monday wil-b[e municipal nominatiaon day in Whitby, ancVon the following Monday the electors will make their annual pilgnmage ta the poils ta choose the men who will guide Whitby's des- t inies for the year 1929. Just now there is a lot of talk about candidates comlag out for the variou.s municipal officers and it is hoped. that sucli talk wil resutitnlaa revival of interest la the selection of theproper can- diïlates.

The Governmenït, is also asked to make this regulation a law of the land, wifhth a view to reducing or eliminating the number offatal accidents to peidestrians.wigtml The Oshawa Daily Times has thé folloio i îml advîce on this subject:t --Ever io often occurs a tragedy of the highway-i a pedestrain Ihit by a passing car--driver held by the polo« ice on a charge of reckless driving or of criminal neg-1 ligence. LuI the majority of cases public opinion, the news- papers and the courts place the biame for sucli accidents on the motorist. Is this right? Any motorist driving on the highway between Osh- awa and Toronto is aware of fhe fact that pedestaians, ini most cases, walk with- the traffic, usually a foot -ore two on the pavement, and few take the trouble to step off or- even look around as the long lime of automobiles goes past at 35 miles an hour. Apparently it pedestrian t;4Les the view that the highway is as much; his as the motorist's and,. perhaps, he is right, but after sundown the driver of a motor car,_ blinded by a haif mile of dazzling lights, . is not always able to see ahead and swerve to the left ini time to avoid a person or persons wa1kigg at tle rigzht hand, side of'the road. 1The best protection for a'pedestrain iseassurcd* by facing the traffic, and, to this end the Department of Public Highwaysý have issued warning after werning. 'No motorist wants to run into or intjure or- kilt a pedestrain. No motorist is likely to do so if the pedes- train faces the traffic and steps to the side when a car approaches. It is our belief that a majority of fatalities of this nature on the highway is the resuit of negigence on the part of the p6destrain who Lails to observe the first principles of safety. Meeting the traffic,. there are two people, at least, working for safety of lif e and limb-the driver of the car and the pedestrian himseIf." À THffOUGHy-z-TrFORCHRISTMAUS Service brings happine-ss.

There is riothing in this thought that restricts in the least, o ur ambition. or our industry; nothlag that dampens, oui' enthusiasm, or narrowg- aour vision. Lt is soiely a ques- tion of how we use what we have or what we.get, or whether we go along the way of consideralion -for others or of consideration for-ourselves. Ail we need is ta have the good of aur fellows as the dominatlag impulse of a.ll that we think' or do 'ta give us happiness, wvhetheÎ we count our material stores la millions, or in mils, whether our power-be autocratic or infantile, wh'ether our position be high or low.

Editorlal Notes* 'i -1 -1 Do your, Christmas shopping early this year and, do it la Whitby. There should be ua large turnout at the Chamber of Commerce luncheon on Wednesd'"ay- of next week, at which the speaker wili be Dr. T. E. Kaiser, .P. for Ontario riding, and a man who is well qualified ta speak on county, provincial and national affairs. This will be the final luncheon of the year. Other luncheons have been well atiended and the Executive looks for an even larger representation of the business and profession- interest.s of the tawn. The appolatment by the Chamber of Commerce Ex- ecutive Tuesday evening of an industrial committee was a move in the riglit direction. This commiûee will fiid lots ta do,. as quite frequeutly important industrial pro>- posais require consideration, while the Committee can also do whât is possible ta induce industries ta bocate la ai interests of the town. Hanover has jolaed the ever-increaslag columu of municipalities that hold their municipal nominations sud election lu November and early la December. A meeting was hield in Barrie recently by represent- atîves of the fire brigades: of Orillia, Penetanguishene sud Midland ta, fittingly protect the voluntary fixemen of those towns la case of accident while attending' fixes.e This is the same proposition that came before WVhitby Council recently. Lu Barrie the volunteer brigade is insured by the town against accidents which may aêécur at a fixe or on the way thereto or afterward until the second rail cal1, -lu the sum of $2,000. The fixemen con- tribute a frhrsmc $7.00 each, which with the grant from the towu cf $200 provides an, insursuce of al members of the- brigade against suy kind of accident at suy hour cf the day of $2.500.
