Dr. Chase's Ointment for Chafing, Skin Irritations Eczema by ottawa'observer Threats To Normalcy At the present time the governinegt is bending every effort towards stab- ilizing economic conditions -in Can- ada for the purpose of maintaining our high level of prosperity. It is becoming evident that various left- wing forces are simultaneously acting as a deterrant to this effort and threatening the basis of our welfare. Canada .is a free enterprise coun- try and the policy of the governinent is based on a recognition of this ,tact. The boundless resources of the nation and the vast opportunities for indi- vidual initiative make - this :policy self-evident But in Canada's left-wing -camp, communists and socialists continue to work,,, by different methods, for a sys- tem based on state domination. The communists, generallyspeaking, are a negligible factor in the political field,. In fourteen large labor unions in Canada, involving more than 120,- 000 members, their power is great and their strategy single tracked - the weakening of industry by constant strike. They may yet cause a tie-up in Great Lake shipping and halt grain shipments to Europe. The long-await- ed efforts of labor leaders to purge their ..ranks is only partially encour- aging in the light of the fact that many of them are as .zealously in -fav- or of the socialist state as are the communiets. The C.C.F. Socialist party uses a different method' of . weakening the foundations of Canada's economy. In the political field it disparages free enterprise and plumps for "social planning," meaning domination by small groups of socialist bureaucrats. Party leaders must have been aghast when a New York professor told a recent C.C.F. conference that the government has taken nearly all the steps needed t� avert a serious ;de- pression. In the August issue of "The Canadian Forum," Prof. Under- hill challenges his party to consider the consequences involved in sacrific- ing enterprise and initiative for un- limited controls. . Encduraging Omens The fact that Canada is close to full employment with a labor short- age foreseen and that she is making nearly •a scor.e of ,new trade deals at current Geneva conferences probably accounts in part for -a recent Gallup Poll showing that the public as a whole is fair well satisfied with the • Erecting another 70,000 borsopewer Generator at new OeCaw Falls plant near SI. Catharines. HYDRO NEW POWER PLANTS uh Hydro is pushing construction to meet the pressing demand for•. more electricity. The above huge generator will soon pour an addi, tional 70,000 horsepower into - the Hydro system from the DeCew Falls plant near St. Catharines; Two other larger plants in eastern Ontario, now under' construe- tion, will deliver 81,000 horsepower next year and 360,1100 horsepower by 1951. These two major developments, with the DeCew Falls addi- lion, will provide Ontario with a further badly needed half -million horsepower. The growing output of Ontario's industries and farms- benefits everyone but calls for more and more electricity. Even now that the war is over, the demand has not slackened but continues to mount. Hydra's peak load increased by more than 500,000 horsepower over the high- est wartime demand, an, increase of 25%. Generating plants take a E L E C T R I C I T Y long time to build and could not be started during the war.

However, we must use our electricity sparingly so that 'all homes, all farrn services and all industries will receive their share.

The National Library Continued editorial comment on "the need for a national library indicates the further evolution of a Canadian cultural consciousness, ' It is pointed, out that, part o1 the half million vol- ume in the present parliamentary lib- rary could well form the basis for such a, national institution. The Na- tional Film Board at Ottawa has al- ready -amply demonstrated its ability to stimulate interest in Carnada's folk- ways 'and natural :beauty through the Medium of photography and films. Trade Fair To• Advertise Canada The extensive advertising campaign of the Department of Trade and Com- merce during the next few months to draw world attention to the Canadian International Trade Fair to be held in Toronto from May 31 to June 12, 1948, demonstrates the importance at- tached by the government to restor- ing more normal world trading condi- tions: With a third of every Cana- dian dollar conservatively estimated to be the proportion derived 'from. foreign trade, practical -minded Cana- dians can feel hopeful that the Fair will succe'e'd• ,fully in further extend- ing Canada't trade relations 't 'ith the world. Living` Costs Canadians continue to exhibit con - tern at various recent price increas- es. Removal of controls was inevit- able to permit a return to normal con- ditions, with the expectation . that temporary fluctuations would be stab- ilized when the law of supply and de- mand began to fully operate. As it is, wise government measures have prevented anything like the extreme dislocations felt in the United, States. However, a baiting of the decontrol process would probably be the answer to any serious threat to the welfare of the average Canadian. VARNA Mr. and Mrs. Clayton Tice and Mr. and Mrs, Perce Johnston and son, Robert, of Wellington, spent the week -end at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Johnston and other friends.. 11iliss Phyllis Johnston., who spent the past month here, returned. •heine with them. EVERYBODY'S BUSINESS s. by Invariably, the man who is - most eager to learn succeeds most rapidly. Obviously, then,it is advis- able to use all available means of learning more about our jobs. Experience is the greatest teacher. Books and lectures are a great help. But few real- ize how much we can learn . by observing and talking to people. The people who can be of most value to us in this way are those who have made, or are making, their mark in this world. From their ideas, -experience and methods val- uable information- can be gleaned. It is usually easy, I find, to get these people to re- spond wholeheartedly when - asked intelligent questions. Nor should anyone feel that they are humbling them- selves -by seeking to learn from others': No one can know all the answers.. But those who know most are usually those who are al- ways open-minded • and try- ing to learn more from others. Over 4,000,000 Canadians have learned that Life Insur- ance provides security for themselves and their. families. And because no other form of investment can meet this need, the number of life in- surf nce policyholders grows greater yearly. w lel The Way of Life The "Milky Way" of Life is com- mended to Canadians ..by officials in the Nutrition Division of the Depart- ment of National Health and Welfare, Ottawa. Millt contains calcium -in fact, is the best known source of it. So, say the experts;, children should. be. fed from a pint to a quart of milk daily, and everyone should try to drink, or take in food, from half a pint to a full pint a day. Milk helps to give us such essen- tials to beauty and well-being as white teeth,bright eyes, straight fig- ures and Iovely skin. Home Training For their personal profit, ss well as for our collective wellbeing, chil- dren are taught at school that they, must abide, all through life, by ac- cepted rules of social behaviour, such as teamplay, fairness, discipline,, punc- tuality, etc. Now, health authorities suggest to parents that such training should not be left entirely to school authorities. The home, too; should give the young- sters . constant direction in such im- .portant. matters as sportsmanship and co-operation. And -since -much of a child's personality is built around the home; such training must be cen- tred and practised' there. Sound Tuition While they admit 'that everyone can't be truly musical, medical author- ities believe that, since nearly all people, and particularly children, love harmony instinctively,. , there is real value in a musical education. The taste for rhythm should be cultivated, since, the doctors point out, life has s� .much more .to offer to, a person with some -knowledge of music, and not just a living acquaint- anceship with 'jazz. Habits That Help Habits' which last• a lifetime are formed Wand developed in •ch•ildhood. So, the health authorities tell us, care should be taken that, from their earliest years, children are set the finest examples and brought up, with approved living habits. ' .
