Nothing quite suited him. The big fellows ran off with 'all the opportunities. The athletes had all the health. Wherever he looked the-other fellow had the advantages. One day his minister who had suffered many things of this grouser, invited him to take a day with him. The forenoon was spent in the hospital. The- afternoon., was spent in the Mental Hospital. The evening was spent in the home for the Incurables. The grouser was effectually cured. Try it, sometime.******** AN EYE-OPENER The success and courage and resourcefulness .of the Chinese under the present attack made upon them by their ruthless foes, the Japanese, have won the admiration of the world. Japan has made immense strides in acquiring the arts and sciences of the West. Parallel with this she has developed a savagery that have brought upon her the curses of the race. Her brutality scared the rest of civilization. It remained for “backward” China to show the world that Japan is not invincible. It cannot be right for other nations to allow any power to resort to human butchery. No nation can remain great that puts trade above honour. ******** AN INCIDENT Madam was busy on the London ■ market. Her last purchase was a basket of peaches. On reaching home she found that her shopping bag was missing. “That’s that” she concluded ruefully. Second thought led her to sending a note to the market officer. Meanwhile she asked herself about the chances of recovering her lost property. “I’ll see what sort of business man that peach own­ er is. I’ll' get my property back all right,” she concluded. “The peaches in the bottom of the basket are better than "the peaches on the top of the basket.” By the next mail came word that the shopping bag was safe and sound. Interesting?******** TWO SIDES TO THE SITUATION While we may be disposed to say sharp things about the Unit­ ed States for lier sending neat little lectures to Japan on the im­ portance of observing the requirements of international law and to jibe Anthony- Eden in his spending so- much time regarding inter­ national conferences, we should .balance up our minds by recalling that war is a terrible business. The difficulties of the situation are augmented by the eagerness of many merchants to trade with the belligerents. Diana of the Ephesians still has her devotees who make progress in the higher interests of the race, move forward with a leaden foot. 'S. • .******** The pages of the daily papers make terrible reading from time . to time as they relate the downfall of some person who walked the high places of this modern world, but who, wilfully, did some ser­ ious wrong and has been tracked down. Let it not be forgotten that the press does not tell all it knows of such matters. The press knows better than most folk, that wrong doers are under observation whose guilt may be proven, at almost any time. The way of the transgressor is hard. This is not preaching but the simple rela­ tion of facts with which every cub reporter is familiar but which' many grown men ignore. « They Suffer Every Summer Diarrhoea and Bowel Trouble Mrs. J. J. Biokert, Vernon, B.O., writes:—“I have used Dr. Fowler’s Ext. of Wild Strawberry for the past twenty years, tmd even at home, when I Was a child, my mother Was never without it. “Every summer different members of our family Suffer from diarrhoea and bowel trouble, but I always get *Dr. Fowler’s’ and a; few doses are always effective. I do not know of any other medicine that helps bo quickly?’ A product of The T. Milburn Co., Ltd.. Toronto, Ont On tho market for th? past 90 years, Vote for Unemployment Insurance Premier Hepburn will pass an Unem­ ployment Insurance Law next session if the Liberals are returned. A vote for a Liberal candidate is a vote for Unemployment Insurance. Vote for Low Hydro Rates Hepburn brought down Hydro Rates, saving consumers $4,800,000. Vote to keep Hydro from being loaded up with costly power from the Quebec 3P Power Barons. #V I Vote for thet( Treasure Hunt" to Continue Hepburn has already uncovered a treasure of 28 millions hidden away in inheritance taxes on under-valued estates. Vote to continue the hunt. Vote Your Approval of Lower Auto Fees Hepburn has cut $5 off the cost of . motor license fees. Vote Liberal and show your approval. /w < ■ Vote for Lower Taxes Hepburn’s desire to help the taxpayer was shown by the one-mill special subsidy he made to municipalities to be passed on to the taxpayer. Hep­ burn is the taxpayer’s Proven Friend. Vote for Debt Reduction Hepburn, by sound financing and good government, reduced Ontario’s Public Debt by 33 million dollars last year. Vote for further reductions. Vote for Courageous Administration Hepburn has not been afraid to stand up against the Lewis crowd, the Que­ bec Power Barons, the financial ring. Ontario needs a courageous Premier in times like these. Vote for lower interest rates. Vote for More “Sunshine” Budgets Hepburn’s last budget, with its nine- million surplus and its tax reduction accomplishments, has become popu- lary known as the “Sunshine” Budget. Vote for a continuation of these “Sun­ shine” Budgets. X X X Vote Liberal And Keep The Old Henry Gang Out TT.S all right to let Earl Rowe kid himself that he is steering and running the Conservatives, but the electors don’t want to let Mr. Rowe kid them into believing that he is leading a new, clean, thoroughly purged Conservative party. The same “old Henry gang” is managing the Rowe boat. The “old Henry gang” think that they were beaten by “some mistake” in 1934. On Wednesday, October 6th, show them that it was no mistake, but that you were in deadly earnest when you voted them out and that you want them even less today. Hepburn’s Social Legislation Proves He Is “a Man With a Heart” T)Y his deeds, Mr. Hepburn has shown -L-f he has the interests of the masses at heart. His government has assumed the full cost of Mothers’ Allowances. A mother with one child is now entitled to an allow­ ance, a right denied her by the former Con­ servative government. Under Mr. Hepburn, the government as­ sumed the municipalities’ share of Old Age Pensions. It established Pensions for the Blind. It abolished Students’ Examination Fees. It cancelled the Amusement Tax so that people are no longer penalized for enjoying themselves at theatres, concerts and games. Hepburn Benefits Labour HEPBURN has shown true friendship for the workingman, with advanced labour legislation — Minimum wages for men as well as women, an Industrial Stan­ dards Act providing codes by agreement be­ tween employees and employers and already improving conditions for 75,000 workers; and the creation of the Industry and Labour Board. Another evidence of Mr. Hepburn’s friend­ ship for labour is his promise, if re-elected, to enact legislation to provide Unemploy­ ment Insurance, and Mr. Hepburn makes good on his promises. Hepburn Takes Liquor Out of Politics HEPBURN’S proposed Board of Three —a Judge, a Liberal, a Conservative— is the sanest, soundest, most constructive plan for removing liquor from politics that has yet been devised. In respect to beverage rooms the Hepburn Government stands for the principle of local option. It is up to the municipality to decide for itself whether it wishes to be “wet” or “dry”. That’s British fair play. Hepburn prevented the sale of liquor in restaurants. On its record of successful administration during its first term in office, the Hepburn Government deserves to be returned to power—deserves the support and the vote of all fair-minded people. Do your part to assure Ontario a contin­ uance of good government for another term by voting for the Hepburn candidate in your riding. VOTE LIBERAL Issued by the Ontario Liberal Association X ■y
