VEALE, PublisherPHONES .—Tribune Ofltas. 13 - Raudenes, 442A._ jL „H ------- - _1- .. I ”lr ~THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 3rd, 1938Education A* A National InvestmentMany statements which have been given much pub­licity would lead the average Canadian citizen tobelieve that the cost of education in this country is very great indeed, and that this cost is far beyond the power of the country to support. Before any citizen accepts such statemenu, he should ask him­ self. “What are the facta? Just how much is spent on Education in Canada, and how does the cost com­ pare with the cost of other services ” The total (3120,000,000) is about 13% of all gov­ ernment expenditures. It is thus evident that the cost of education plays only a small part in the fin­ ancial affairs of the Dominion. And when the tax­ payer stops to think of what the country receives for its educational expenditures—nine great school sy­ stems, employing 74,000 teachers and serving 2,500,- 000 boys and girls—he will surely not consider the cost too high. Of course, education is a provincial, not a dominion, responsibility, and is largely sup­ ported by local taxes on real estate. Even com­ pared with other municipal services so supported, however, educational costs are not excessive. For example, in Ontario, only about 27% of total muni­ cipal expenditures are for education, and only 17% of the totai municipal indebtedness is due to educa­ tion.Thi% provides proof of the claim that the expendi­ tures which Canadian people make on education are only a small part of their total expenditures. The Dominion Bureau of Statistics estimates that Canada spends only 3.5% of her income on education. The same Bureau shows that it costa 35,750 to raise the average boy or girl to maturity, and that only 3750, or barely 13% of this is spent on education. “In other words,” says the Bureau, “it costs no more to raise six children and give them an average school­ ing than to raise seven completely illiterate.” The COadian people spend one-third as much for cigar­ ettes every year as they spend for education. They spend two-thirds as much for liquor as they spend to educate two and a half million children. And ex­ penditure on both these items shows a steady increase year after year. Education in Canada (exclusive of Universities), costs about $10.00 per capita. Only eight of the forty-eight American states spend less than this, and they are all states in the poverty- stricken South. Surely the consideration of facta like these will convince everyone that the cost of education, although substantial, is not by any means excessive. Indeed, those who advocate increased expenditure^ for education at this time when the country is beginning to emerge from the depression are fully justified in their contention. Next week is National Education Week. Active and enthusiastic committees in all the provinces have been at work preparing programmes. There will be a Dominion Broadcast over C.B.C. network on Monday, February 7th, from 8.30 to 9.00 p.m., while special broadcasts over local stations will be on the air several evenings throughout the week. ishes bumps from bulging noses.

Of every 1000 babies bom alive in up-state New York, 49 die before they are a year old. Thirty- two of these die before they are one month old and a large proportion on the day of their birth. Public health ‘has made much progress in reducing infant mortality but not so much, either in New York or elsewhere, in reducing the deaths in the first few days and week of life. Babies that die in the first month mostly do so because they have not had a fair start in life. More than half of them have been bom before their time. Many are killed by the deadly germs of syphilis, whichl they have caught from their mother's blood. Some I have been fatally injured by too violent efforts to bring them into the world. Al recent study of New York statistics, reported to the American Statistical Association on December 28th \ast, shows that babies have a better chance when their parents are of the right age. Mothers should have their first baby between the ages of 21 and 26, their second baby between the ages of 23 and 28. Their husbands should be between 25 and 29 years old. All mothers should have medical care during pregnancy but particularly mothers that ex­ pect their first baby before they are out of their teens.

Canadians Spend On Outiide Goods: Canada gave financial or other assistance to 75 out of every 10,000 Canadians in one mouth last fall, apart altogether from those who received aid from private charitable organizations in the Dom­ inion yet, in the same month, Canadian imports from the United States alone exceeded $44,000,000 and from the United Kingdom, nearly $14,000,000. This comparison was made in the statement issued recently by the National Produced in Canada Asso­ ciation for purpose of “showing one way, at least, in which Canadians can, by insisting on buying Produced in Canada merchandise on every possible occasion, help to provide more work for their own people and thus decrease the amount paid out in relief, which comes from taxes. A study of official statistics issued by the Domin­ ion government for the twelve months ending October 1937, proves conclusively that Canadians are spend­ ing millions of dollars every week on necessities of life which are imported when they could obtain, probably, the equivalent which are produced or made in this country by Canadians. Among the classifications in this connection are such articles as furniture, silk and woollen goods, drugs, meats, handkerchiefs, hats, medicines, soups, fruits, vegetables, candy, sewing machines, fish, cut­ lery, lamps, tobacco, sporting goods, hardware, tools, paints, typewriters, farm implements and fertilizers, wood, paper, machinery, books, dolls, jewellery, news­ papers and periodicals. . All these items were imported, in large or small quantities in the twelve months ending October, 1937, yet ar study of our own production and manu­ facturing figures indicates that all of these items are Produced in Canada. While if is apparent, that Canada cannot live unto herself alone, and imports are an important cog in the machinery of trade, Canadians can, by watching their purchases, exercise an important effect on. the employment situation by insisting on all articles such these which are produced or made in Canada if the price and quality are anywhere comparable with those j of the imported articles. Face-Lifting On Main Street Most people like to go downtown occasionally and look around. Moreover, when they have company they like to have them see the main business section of the town. We may forget that each old building has a place of importance in our esteem because of personal ex­ periences connected with it. Our visitors may have travelled farther and better than we .think. Our business section may look stodgy, unkept -and age- ridden tr them. They may think Main Street needs to have its face lifted. The. Rotarian Magazine recently carried an illus­ trated editorial on the subject, which every town boasting committee would find of) especial interest. We quote a portion here. "The plastic surgeon is a fairly recent comer to the beauty industry. His business is face-lifting. With a calm hand, a sterile scalpel, and the inspira­ tion of a sculptor, he hoists sagging checks, desolves multiple chins, shoos away 'crow's feet*, and ban­ An elocutionary contest will take place at Brant­ ford on the 14th inst., of which Principal T.

Bell and The two prisoners, Seymour Service and Edward Ward, arrested for stealing parcels from a farmer’s sleigh in Ingersoll, were* brought up at the County Court in Woodstock. Service was discharged. Ward was sentenced to three years in the Penitentiary. Mr. S. A. Elliott will in future carry on his butch­ ering business in the market building, he having pur­ chased the interest of the late Mr. Hobbs, deceased. Mr. Millard has bought an interest in Elliott’s gro­ cery business and will attend Ho the business in the store, Thames street. Mr. C. Evans will open evening classes for young men in the principal branches, bookkeeping, arith­ metic, reading, geography, etc. The new residence for the priest on the R. C. church grounds has been completed and the Rev. Father Boubart, it is expected, will soon occupy his new quarters. . The enterprising village of Culloden has started a monthly paper. Mr. D. W. Wilson of that village is the proprietor and we have no doubt it will be a success. Mr. J. Doty has opened out his new eating house in McGaughey's block where hot and cold meals will be served at all hours. Mr. J. Z. Leach has been very successful in the disposal of tickets for the grand prize promenade which will take place on the evening of this day week. A curling match was played at London in the covered rink there recently, which resulted in favor of the Londoners. The Ingersoll players were:—Rink No. 1, R. Bickerton, P. Mairs, R. Vance, Geo. Walley, skip. Rink No. 2, W. Dempster, W. McDonnell; L R. Walker, J. M. Wilson, skip. Dr. J. R.

TERROR ... no greater In the whole of a fairly long life­ time I have never known a time when the world’s mind was so filled with terror as it is today. To the reader of the daily newspaper or the listener on the radio, it seems as if the whole world were in a turmoil, with tragedy stalking on every side and catastrophe threatening the se­ curity of the established order from a dozen directions. I am not convinced that danger and disaster are any more prevalent now than they always have been, considering how many people there are in the world than there were a hundred or two hundred years ago. Today’s dangers are of a different, kind, because we have so many new inventions capable of causing dis­ aster. People do not die by mil­ lions from starvation, as they did during the Hundred Years War which ravaged Europe in the 15th and 16th centuries, when seven­ eighths of the people of Germany died from lack of food. All the deaths by automobile and airplane accidents do not come to as high a percentage of the world’s population in a year as the death-toll from wild beasts, robber bands, epi­ demics, shipwreck and starvation used to conje to. NEWS ... come* faster Our minds are confused by the rapid impact of tragedy. Our fore­ fathers concerned themselves little with such things outside of their own neighborhoods because they did not know them until long after their effect had begun to subside. Today the whole world knows what happen­ ed everywhere else only yesterday. News comes faster than we can di­ gest it. George Washington died on De­ cember 14, 1799. The only exist­ ing copy of a newspaper reporting his death is dated January, 1800. It took more than three weeks for the news to reach New York state readers, Imagine how long it would take for the whole world to learn of the death of a King, Pres­ ident or Prime Minister. t own a copy of a newspaper printet* in England in 1721. It contains the first news report of tho conquest of Persia by the Moham­ medans. That had occurred more than a year before. Today we have the news of yesterday’s battles in China and Spain in our morning papers. No wonder we.get the im­ pression that the world -is on the verge of destruction, SPEED . ..h a “must” The most precious and perishable commodity in the world’s market is news. The fresher the news the gi eater its value. The Rothschilds became the wealthiest family in the world because they got the news of Napoleon’s defeat at Waterloo a day before anyone else in England knew it. That would be impossible today. Z ‘ Newspapers and press associations are paying $1.50 a word for news dispatches from the war in China, but a ton of coal can be sent across the Pacific for a couple of dollars. The world can wait for coal; it must have news today. A century ago a ship was not giv­ en up for lost until three years had passed since it was last heard from. Today a great “Clipper” plane is forced down in mid-ocean and we know it the next day. Actual photo­ graphs, motion pictures, of the sink­ ing of the “Panay” wefo shown in thousands of theatres within two weeks after the tragedy had occurr­ ed ten thousand miles- away. We get so much news of tragedies that we become depressed, haunted by the feeling that everything is going wrong everywhere. EVENTS ... th. "big throe” The three most important events in the life of every person are Birth, Marriage and Death. The closer to our experiences are events which happen to others, the more Interest­ ed we a n in them. That is why re­ ports of births, marriages and deaths an the news most widely read. People want to read about such things when they happen to folks they know or have heard aboutDeath ranks first in news interest.It is something most of us fear, allrealize it is inevitable. War news,news of shipwrecks, or fatal acci­dents in which hundreds on, thous­ands die stirs us to deep emotionalreactions. So does the marriage ofchildren to distinguished couples,famous people, and the birth ofThe biggest piece of news of thepast year was the marriage of theformer King of England to an Am­ erican lady. The biggest news event to which the world is looking forward as I write is the birth of an heir to the throne of the Nether­ lands. Will Juliana’s baby be a boy or a girl? But as we grow older our interest in news turns more and more to the obituary notices. Who that we know or knew about has passed on? And we wonder, less fearfully than when we were young­ er, when our turn will come,• • • PAPER .... from pine Paper is still the greatest medium by which people learn the news which interests them. Definitely more people read newspapers than listen to news reports on the radio, and I believe that will always be so. People want details which the radio cannot give them. In my lifetime I have seen news­ paper circulations jump from a few thousands to millions, the number of newpapers climb from a few hun­ dred to 13,000 in America alone. This has been due to the discovery that paper can be made by machi­ nery out of the same material the wasps make it to build their nests. The first wood-pulp paper in the world was made the year before I was born, in my old home town of Stockbridge. It cut the cost of printed matter and multiplied its output Paper is going to be cheaper and more plentiful still. Paper from southern pine is beginning to sup­ plant paper from northern spruce, at lower cost and unlimited supply of raw material. “AS A WOMAN SEES IT’ — By Arabella — GREY OWL’S WISDOM Grey Owl, the distinguished Indian naturalist and author, recently drop­ ped a pebble in the tide of events which is likely to make some import­ ant ripples, giving annoyance to some people, but probably turning the thoughts of others to a serious matter. As you all know, Grey Owl is a lover of the out-of-doors, shar­ ing its wonders with the other crea­ tures, and at the same time, realizing his human responsibility towards those who are weaker. Possessed of an intellect that has a keen sense of values, he is able to distinguish be­ tween sport and brutality, and is doing all possible to eliminate the latter. A few weeks ago. while in Eng­ land, where he has many friends, in- I eluding the Royal Family, he was invited to deliver a broadcast for the B.B.C. He intended in the course of an interesting address, to appeal to people in general, but es­ pecially to the children, “to be kind to all those helpless creatures of every kind, whom God put on this earth to accompany us through our lives. This world is not altogether ours—It belongs to all who live upon it, both animals and people.” He then asks, “Could you promise me never to take advantage of the weakness of another, human or ani­ mal—never to take the life of a poor defenseless animal, just merely for amusement?” He then becomes spec­ ific, and asks the children to promise not to join in fox, stag, otter or hare hunts; where men think they sharpen their feeble wits by matching, or mis-matching, them against poor dis­ tracted creatures that have never a chance froin the beginning. Grey Owl asks, “Is that fair play? Is that sport?” If it is, he would substitute it-for something more manly. Now that seems a slight request to make, and one that is fair, con­ sidering the great benefilp both moral and material that would en­ sue. However, the authorities of B. B.p. felt otherwise, and Grey Owl was asked to eliminate that part of the address, for it was feared that ■* such remarks might give offense to those interested in hunting. Natural­ ly a man who gets his bearings in the Great Out-of-Doors, would not con­ sent. So Grey Owl’s address was not broadcast in England. It has bee» printed in Saturday Night, which informs us that he was invited to give an illustrated lecture at Buck­ ingham Palace, where his audience included Their Majesties, the King and Queen, Princess Elizabeth, Prin­ cess Margaret and other members of the Royal Family, so that Grey Owl's subbing by B.B.C. was compensated by Royal recognition. The pity of it was that the masses were deprived of a rare treat, for to hear that kind-hearted Red Man speak of his friends' of the animal world, gives a genuine thrill. His simplicity and sincerity were well expressed, when, on leaving, he offered his hand to the King, saying, “Well, good-bye Broth­ er, and good luck to you.” His Majesty would have good luck if aB his subjects observed as faithfully as does Grey Owl. the laws of Na­ ture and of the Realm.

"And you?"“Oq the contrary—I’m looking forward to it!"Monty offered Sunny a cigarette.

In 1937, the secretary's report shows, 12 new members joined the club, bringing the total roster to 80. “Waterloo and Wellington county clube combined, are still behind Ox­ ford, Mr. Currie states. “But we should have even more. There are nearly 400 breeders of pure-bred Holsteins in the county.”- An attendance of over 60 at the annual meeting brought congratula­ tions from the president, George Freel. The year just past, the president said, has brought a general upward trend in prices of cattle sold and of most dairy products. Last year was the best yet, he declared, for export of Canadian Holsteins across the Atlantic, with an average of 68 Hol­ steins being shipped each working day. “The breeder who is culling his cattle and buying a good bull is going to reap the benefit of better prices,” Mr Freel declared. “Unfortunately,” he continued, “the price of feed is still out of line with the prices of dairy products. There seems to be an abundance of feed in the country, and yet the price stays up.” Among the high-lights of the club's activities in 1937, Mr. Freel mentioned the achievements of Fred Stock, Jr., and Tom 'Dent, in giving to the county two cows with 30,000 pound production records; H. E. Longworth’s “great undefeated two- year-old heifer”, which was unde­ feated throughout the 1937 showseason; the sale of show-winning cattle to Bell & James of Sarnia from a herd at Mount Elgin. At the Woodstock Fair, he report­ ed, the club had 35 exhibitors, show­ ing 165 entries, and winning prizes worth $654. Douglas Hart was elected presi­ dent of the cluh for 1938, James Ret- O. H.

Elections for the board of direct­ ors resulted in the following nine being chosen from a slate of 14 can­ didates: George Freel, A. H. Caffyn, Alfred Grover, Fred Stock, Jr., Earl Haley, H. E Longworth, T. R. Dent, Martin McDowell and G. R. Rowe. Photographs in natural color of Holsteins and "Holstein farms in Hol­ land were shown by lantern project, ion by G. M. Clemons, secretary of the Holstein-Friesian * Association. The pictures were made by Mr. Clemons while on a trip last year to the original home of the Holstein- Friesian breed. The majority of them showed cattle in the province of Friesland, where 200,000 head of Holstein-Friesian stock are pastured in an area approximately the size of Oxford County. • Production of the black and white cows in Holland probably does not average as high as that of the same bread in Ontario, Mr. C. Clemons said. An average of 17,000 cows in Friesland, he said, gave a product­ ion of 10,560 pounds, with a 3.7 but­ ter fat test In the other 10 prov­ inces of Holland, he said, production averaged 10,120 pounds of 3.5 but­ ter fat percentage. Douglas Hart, newly-elected presi­ dent, spoke briefly, extending thanks for the honor conferred upon him by unanimous election. Hints On Fashions -------------------------by LISBETH-----------------— Spring Shoes Feature Draped Turban Sandal and Gay Colors Buy it at NANCY HART’SHOME NEWSIf you are planning to entertainyour luncheon bridge club soon whydon't you use popovers in place ofthe usual patty shell. I went to aluncheon the other day where thehostess did just this very tiling andevery guest there was delighted withthe dish. My hostess served creamedsweetbread and mushrooms in her popovers, but crearped chicken, creamed sea-foods or even creamed drief beef can he used satisfactorily. You can substitute popovers for cream puff sheila, too. When ready ‘o serve, fill them with fruit mixed with whipped cream or with the usual cream filling. If you add 2 tablespoons of grated cheese to your standard popover rule you will have a delicately flavored case for salads. Fill the cases just before serving so that they will re­ tain all their crispness. And of course, serve with plenty of butter, popovers always can take the place of muffins or any other bread stuff at breakfast or luncheon. Your grandmother preheated her popover irons and then took them cut of the oven to grease them while hot—and like as not burned her fing­ ers But there are popover secrets she didn't know. First, you never need to preheat ovenware custard cups used for baking purposes. And, second, the popovers will be taller and crisper if you baked them in ungreased cups so that the batter can cling to the side as it rises dur­ ing baking* Here’s the menu my hostess used, although, of course, you can vary it to suit your needs: Creamed sweetbreads and mush­ rooms in popovers, cranberry salad, sweet potato rolls, relishes, caramel parafait, nut cookies, coffee If you are needing a new daytime frock to fill in until spring choose it in one of the new vivid colors. Of course, you'll want that fitted-in look at the waistline, but your skirt may flare or be pencil-slim. The fabrics are more alluring, than ever with sheer wools and wool-type ray­ons holding first place. Evening clothes are more feminine and glamorous than they have been for years. Marquisette is popular for dancing. In an exclusive shop I saw a charming black marquisette dance gown made with tiny caps over the shoulders, a very full skirt and a gold-flowered collar and’ belt. Three rows of flat metal flowers made the collar and a single row the narrow belt. If Jack Frost attacks the water pipes some night the man of the house might try a few home reme­dies' before calling the plumber. First open all faucets connected to the pipe. Then apply heat to the pipe at the end nearest the fixtures. * As heat permeates through the pipe, water from the melting ice escapes through the faucet. When the pipe ts in a place where there’s no danger of ruining wall-paper or floors a heavy cloth wet with boiling water can be wrapped around it An elec­ tric heating pad wrapped around the frozen pipe is ideal since it supplies, dry heat without danger of adjacent walls or floors catching fire. Any heat supplied by electricity ia safe and you can use a small heater or even a cooking appliance that can be placed close to the pipe. Of course a blow torch is most effective but there’s always great dangdr of fire. The Passmore Store Plenty of ventilation Is noted- inthe new shoes.

There are 24 million of these so- called “unemployed” housewives in United States, according to the ort issued by the Women’s Bur­ eau of the Department of Labor of which Miss Mary Anderson is head. It is estimated that the average housewife earns an equivalent of from $5 to $20 a week, year in and year out.
