THE TOWN DOCTOR
(The Doctor of Towns)
Says
HOW YOUR TOWN LOOKS ' IS IMPORTANT
What is there that some communities have that; others -lack,;,
which makes the difference between compliments and criticisms"that something" that invites you or repels and oppresses you--t-that
-
difference which so distinguishes from the ordinary? ; It is largely
a matter of that which, for want of a better name, has been termed
by the advertising profession as "atmosphere."
Lack of "atmosphere" in a town is that which is responsible
for motorists going through your town without seeing it, or re-
membering it. How often have you heard the remark, referring
to business houses; places of amusement and even hones -"It doesn't
appeal to me, there's no atmosphere"?
How your townlooks`IS important, for while; people weighval-
ues, they constantly compare towns. There are thousands who would
go outof their way to patronize your town' if the surroundings were
such that created "atmosphere,"
"Atmosphere" attracts, induces, tempts, allures, fascinates and
impress -it sells your town; while the absence of it in any community
creates a pall and silence that shouts to the world, including its own
inhabitants, "This place lacks what you are looking for."
In every section of this great land of ours, cities, towns and
villages have, to a .greaterr or less degree, thought of, talked about,
and in many cases, started a Clean -Up Campaign; To what extent
it has been carried out depends upon the wide-awakefulness ofthe
people.
, There is something about the first few days of every spring
that gives us mortals an urge to shed ourselves of drab surroundings
-to sort of "brighten the corner where we are", so to speak. Full
of pep, enthusiasm and with fine ideas of doing big things, we neat-
eriallyadd to the joy of the paint store man, the seed merchant and
the seller of garden and yard tools, and it is fine for everybody. But
our hands are soft, our baoks are weak, and our will not too strong,
and altogether, too soon the glamor and incentive of the first days
becomes the fever of the, week and the job is left half done.
Verily, in a few short weeks many now tidy and much boast-
ed of gardens will be but weed patches, unattended and forlorn..
Likewise, many a Clean -Up Week, widely heralded, urged and ex-
ploited by a loyal press, will pass with the May flowers unless you
and your neighbors and all of their neighbors' neighbors recognize
the real value and keep at it until it is done -and well.
Do not have a Clean -Up Week -make it the year 'round, for
your customers, from whence they may come, are becoming more •
critical -they' demand "atmosphere', and there can be none without
cleanliness . all of, the time. •

RHEUMATISM ''?

Hon. Geo. S. Henry
Word was received from Toronto
a few days ago that the Highway
Safety Committee had renewed its
campaign for the prevention of',ac-
cidents. In this paper the Commit-
tee publishes its first 'advertisement,
calculated,to renew public interest in
this vital problem.
It is stated.by those who have stud-
ied the question, that motor traffic
in Ontario increased between 20%
and 25% in 1928 over 1927, but that
the fatal accident, ratio was lower
than in 1927. Highway officials hive
a good dealof credit for these fig-
ures to She educative efforts of the
Highway Safety Committee dudng
the last two years. As the traffic
grows the Committee find that they
have to continue their efforts with
renewed vigor in order to keep this
ratio at as low a figure as possible.
After carer -all study members of the
Committee have concluded that the
vast majority of accidents can be
prevented if a few simple rules of
safety are,lcept constantly in mind.
One official' of the Highways De-
partment artment asserted that during certain
periods of this summer we may ex-
pect cars in use on Ontario High-
ways to ,equal one car to every three
people living in the Province. These
figures, of course, take 'into account
the increasing number of tourist cars
using,.Q.n,tario Highways.

turning to take up
the work of farm-
ing in the province which maintains
the Agricultural College, and to that
extent the college has failed to per-
form the function which its founders
had in mind.
This bears out the contention that
has previously been trade in these
columns, that the; machinery of the
Agricultural Department is not' cant-
ing to close enough grips with the
problem which the farmers are fac-
ing.
What is needed is some practical
fanning in several districts of this
province, •carried on by the depart-
ment under the same conditions
which the average farmer., is facing,
NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY
The Agricultural College was es-
tablished for the purpose of giving
scientific instruction in agriculture,
iu order that graduates would snake
better farmers. Tirlle:y would learn.
new methods and better ways and
put them into actual use on the land.
There has been a good deal of dis-
cussion regarding the extent to
which this object is realized, and thc
destination of thc graduating class
this year gives a fairly good index to
the `situation.
There arc 33 graduating this year;
seven are leaving Ontario to take
positions iti other provinces or in
the United States; eight will enter
the agricultural represcittaativc ser-
vice; four are to work in the Domin-
ion Department of Agriculture, and
four more are remaining on the staff
of .the Guelph school, Five are go-
ing on with postgraduate worts, and
the remaining' nine have secured pos-
itions withcommercial firms in. On-
tario.
Ot the entire class not one is re
and financed on the same 'scale.
Let the department face the,exper-
ience of going to the bank and ne-
gotiating a loan, let it do its buying
and selling in the same way the av-
erage farmerdoes it -not feeling that
it had the financial power of a pro-
vince behind it, but with: a 'sincere
desire to find out why farmers do
not regard their business as fairly
profitable. .
Educating young men for a voca-
tion which they are not going to LI -
low is too great a departure from
good business practice to be contin-
ued indefinitely. The .time seems to
be here for getting at the basic facts
of the case first.
