FARMER" "YES—SIR JAMES" What has happened to the promises Hepburn made to the farmers of Ontario before he was elected? Hepburn Promised the Farmers: A special session of the legislature to deal with farm relief problems immediately after the election, What Hepburn Did: Nothing! He said "The farmers must stand on their own feet." Hepburn Promised the Farmers: Help in improving livestock, grants to help ag,riculture. What Hepkurn Did: H wiped out the Farm Loan Board—stopped bonuses for pure bred sires and grants to junior judging competitions — cut off $300,000 in grants made by the previous government to aid the farmer, Hepburn Promised the Farmers: Wider markets and better marketing facilities. What Hepburn Did: He closed the marketing agencies at Montreal, Winnipeg and in the Maritimes—closed Ontario House in London, England, which had created markets thereby increasing Ontario farmers' annual income by $10,0000/0. Hepburn Promised the Farmers: A string of cold storage warehouses across Ontario, for the benefit of the farmer. What Hepburn Did: Nothing! epbnrn Promised the Farmers: Reduced taxation. What Hepburn Did: He collected in taxation 80% more than was collected in the last year of the Conservative Government, of which the farmers paid their share. at is Saucef t ' 1.0) se Is Sauce :I the BUT—while Mr. Hepburn was saying to the farmer "you must stand on your own feet" and was cutting off $300,000 in agricultural bonuses, he was passing on a bonus to Sir James Dunn of the Algoma Steel Corporation of almost a like amount of the taxpayers' money. k ou Can 1;11 der Agriculture and industry are both vitally necessary to the prosperity and welfare of the Canadian people.

That is precisely what is going on in Ontario this year. Nearly 800 people will be killed on our highways. Nearly 14,000 will be injured—many of them crippled; many of them suffering almost unbearable pain. Death and S untold suffering stalk our highways and this must stop ! RECKLESS DRIVERS BEWARE I Motorists hav4eeflTeqUeSthd to be courteous on the road but the death toll mounts at an appalling rate. This Depart- ment,with the aid of our internationally famous police force and public-spirited citizens, intends to put reckless drivers off the road! Y'011 must stop cutting in, passing on hills and curves, crowding, racing, taking chances. Unless you have regard for the safety and convenience of other users of our highways you will ,soon find yourself in serious trouble. MOTORISTS: WE ASK YOUR HELP! When you see a motorist driving in a manner dangonoui to the public, take his number, make a careful note of the actual time and place, tad when you reach your destination write to the Motor Vehicles Branch, Department of Highways, Toronto, giving full details. We do not invite reports of minor infringement :4 of the traffic laws; you are re- quested to use sound judgment. We will deal adequately with offenders! • ri'43i!.!:04Mr3,4.0 ec" 04,C, " "49-01# rep ee 'eeiNe ' NTAR tO '410„,,At ONTARIO DEPARTMENT OF HIGHWAYS Motor Vehicles Branch 5 cc Why AriculturalCo!legeStinica 1Weed Physical Culture. Omni And Brain Work Well Together — Students MIL) to D1 rect In Sports—Building cfp tini Body for Later Usefulness, (con tribu ted by ontarlo Department all Agriculture, Toronto.) THLETICS at our College ar being revolutionized an placed on a more stable basil than in the past. Progressive colleges are coming t roelize the supreme importance o bringing physical training to th front in educational work. Collegd authorities are realizing that they, are responsible for the ignorance among the alumni of the colleges, regarding the care of the body, as it is a well known fact that eighty peg cent of graduates die from ten to thirty years before the age at which they should, They aro also realizing that under the old method less than fifty per cent. of the students are engaged in any form of systematic or organized exercise. This is due to thel fact that our colleges were, and some aro as yet, fostering two classes—. one class attends for social end ath. letic advantages, and the otheg attends largeLi for intelleetu..1 oppor-1 tunities. The first class is incline4 to neglect mental work and carry+, athletics to excess, while the second class is inclined to neglect physical training and carry mental efforts td excess. Neither class lives strictly; hygienic lives, Now our colleges are adopting neW methods to eliminate such conditione and are awakening to the fact that physical education has a legitimate place in the college curriculum, Some of these methods are as fol- lows: (1) Intra -collegiate sport and recreation in addition to our intero collegiate sports, with the constant purpose in view of usefulness in afte life. This draws in the spectators o the side lines and promot 's interes by friendly rivalry. (2) Organization of activities on the basis of athletic' sports, rather than on gymnati basis, giving games to the student if normal physically; if not, remedial gYmnatics until fit. It is necessaryi to have a wide range of sports games, and physical activties, and ,S, plan to encourage more general pawl ticipation in them. (3) Exercise tall en systematically and at regular in tervals. (4) A subject with required attendance. (5) Strength test upon entering and at the end of each yea; so a student may realize the benefit of systematic training. (6) Encour- agement of the type of physical! exercise that :-. student is likely to nsel in after life. (7) The teaching of fundamental principals of hygienic living. (8) Increase of facilitigs foi outdoor sports in winter and summer. In the past years athletics at thq 0. A. C. have been carried on without these advantages and, in spite op great difficulties, we have been handi- capped primarily in not having an athletic field, and necessary funds for equipment which is essential for exe- cuting an effective program; this is our greatest need and will lie ''.,. hinderance to our prOgressive prr gram for this year., It is our grey desire that it will not be long beta; we benefit by both. The whole student body had meeting before final examinations o the thirtieth of last March for th purpose of discussing and voting on the new program for the coming year which was outlined by our athletic executive. Professors Blackwood, Toole, and Crowe, and. Dr. Creelman pointed out to the students and fac- ulty the great need of such a program, and their duty in regard to athletics and themselves. After a discussion each cause of this program was voteci on and passed unanimously by the whole student body. The following is a brief outline of the Athletic Progranf for the coming year:— (1) Students who have had pre- vious training to act as leaders in the different branches of sports—to coach in boxing, wrestling, aquatics, and track and instruct in athletic games. (2) Promote a fuller program of inter -year athletics by having sche- dules in more branches of sports. Inter -year competitions in the follow- ing sports: Rugby, soccer, play_ ground ball, push ball, volley ball, outdoor basket baU, boxing and wrestling, track, mass athletic meets, cross country runs, tug of war, ten- nis and aquatics. (3) For those students who do not take part in these sports, two com- pulsory periods a week will be given in which they will be instructed in athletic games, 'field and indoor events, swimming, boxing and wrestling. In order to promote this program, we had to enlarge on our Athletic Council which was composed of the sports managers, picked from the faculty, and the Athlete Executive To this we added a Leaders Corp'ant Managers of 'inter -year sports picket from the students. The Leaders Cori Is made up of directors of sport (one for each sport) and thei leaders. The inter -year manager (oao for earns sport) have charge c the coachin., and managing of thei teams and are r^:oonsible to thei year representative who is a menthe of the executive. By Buell an organisation we fec contiden% of swinging our pregral tuccesSfully, which means every stu dent will take part in some brauc' of athletics. Those students, wh come under clause (3) of our pr.(' gram, will be given special instru- tion by our Leaders Corp and wi greatly benefit themselves and ti college. In this way we will be ab' to reach the student on the side line Suggestions regarding athletics rural cominunity centres wiTh be pr sented in a 'future artide.—X.
