WHAT OTHER NEWSPAPERS ARE SAYING
DANGER IN SUMMER PLAYDAYS
The long summer evenings are al-
most here and the children are out of
doors after school and every evening.
That is the time to play and we like
nothing better than to watch them at
it.
But the parents should remember,
becausethe children won't, that pub,-
'tic streets and travelled highways do
not make the safest playgrounds.
Those are just the places where
there is an unobserved, but always
present bystander always ready'' to
take a. part in the play. And when
he does, some little player is not able
'o play again fora long t
little player never' .plays again. The
little player has gone—forever.
The pavements are smooth we knegd.
And so, handy we should not blame
the children for tiring them best. Hut
THE PART OF GOOD CITIZENS

without trees is almost as helpless;

cannot renew themselves will soon
vanish, and with then all their bene-
fits. 'When you help to preserve our

BALDWIN SPEAKS TO YOUTH
That was a remarkable occasion
when 9,000 'representative children of
the British Empire gathered in' Lon
don, England, to hear an address by.
Rt. Iron. Stanley Baldwin,: Prime
Minister of Great Britain. The Prem-
ier admitted that it was likely to be
his last address to a large audience
before his coming retirement and he
rose to the occasion nobly in words
that are not likely to be forgotten lit
the young men and women who were
privileged to hear him. It was in the
nature of a challenge to British youth
to stand steadfast in their loyalty to
the Empire and its ideals of democ-
racyand justice. In conclusion Prem-
ier Baldwin declared:
"The King is the symbol of union,.
npt only of a Empire, but of a society
which is held together by a common
view of the fundamental nature of
man. The Christian State proclaims
the human personality to be supreme.
The servile. State denies it. To com-
promise with the infinite value of the
Inman would lead back to savagery
and the jungle. The torch I would
hand to you and ask you to pass hand
from hand along the pathways of the
Empire is the great. Christian truth
to rekindle anew in each ardent gen-
eration—to use men as the ends and
never merely as a means; to live for
the brotherhood of mean, which implies
the Fatherhood of God. The brother-
hood . of man today is often denied,
derided and called 'foolishness', but it
is, in fact, one of the foolish things
of the world which God has chosen
to confound the wise, and the world
is confounded by it daily. We may
evade it. We may deny it. But we
wilt find no rest for our souls, nor
will the world, until we acknowledge
it as the ultimate wisdom,"
Simeoe Reform::
COMMERCIALISING THE CHURCH
•
Is pulpit advertising a need of the
chureh today? In some quarters
it is held that there is too much
commercialisation of the Ilouse of
God. But on Sunday last a minister
in Owen Sound proclaimed against
this very thing. He was strong in
his denunciation of the modern trend,
In part he said:
"We are . so commercialised that
every Sunday time clergy have to carry
a sheaf of announcements mostly
about secular things, and unless 'much
is made of each one somebody' is go-
ing to get into trouble."
And that was not all. He contin-
ued:
"What would you think of tlie Acts
of the Apostles if there could be
found a few verses like this? 'And
it came to pass that St. Peter before
his wonderful sermon on the day of
Pentecost announced: There will be a
rummage sale on the market square
of • Jerusalem on ' the 2nd clay of the
week. On the third day of the week
there will be a whist drive in the hall
of Moses. On the fourth day of the
week there will be a baking sale in
Joseph's departmental store. On the
5th day of the week there will be a
garden party on the Mount of Olives
with all sorts of raffles to make mon-
ey for the preaching of the Gospel in
foreign lands." I venture to say if
anything like that appeared, we nev-
er would have heard of the Acts of
the Apostles. . Why ,then should our
worship to Almighty God be so in-
terrupted today?"

MR. BROCKINGTON MAI€ES
SOME ANNOUNCEMENTS
The announcement made ovecl the
national network two weeks ago by
L. W. Brockington, chairman of the
CBC board of governors, that work is
to start immediately onthe construc-
tion of -two 50,000 watt transmitting
stations its eastern •'Canada, is evi-
dence of the rapid strides that are be-
ing made by the Cooporation to pro-
vide a satisfactory radio service for
this country. Mr. Brockington spoke
from Regina following the first meet-
ing
neering of the board outside of Ottawa.
The two new stations, one to be
situated near Toronto and the other
near Montreal, ivill' make for greater,
coverage and vastly improved re-
ception in the two provinces. Radio
listeners in Ontario, more especally
in and around Toronto, will be bene-
fited as CBCT, which will become ten
times as powerful as at present, will
be strong enough to eliininate to a
large extent the interference from
outside sources. The locations select-
ed by the Corporation for the sta-
tions are national centres of broad-
casting. They are expected to be in
operation this fall. Within two or
three years CBC also plans to aug-
ment its chain by construction of
high-powered stations in the Mari -1
times and in western Canada.
Mr. Brockington announced that it
is the hope of the Corporation to
have government support,;.s,jn., the
construction of a high-powered short-
wave station which would enable
broadcasting of Canadian programs
to Europe and other parts of the
world. It also would be, he .said, a
medium for Canadian statesmen to
talk to the world and in this way play
a larger part in her destined role as
peacemaker.
Another ambition of the Corpora-
tion, and one whichwill be received,
we believe, with unanimous approval,
is to increase its number of hours on
the air. At the present trine CBC
broadcasts six hours daily, but by
fall plans to be on the air from 12 to
16 hours a day. Coupled with this is
the statement by Mr. Brockington
that efforts will be made to have a
large increase in national and ex-
change programs with Great Britain,
United States and France.
Mr. Brockington further announc-
ed that steps are being taken to clear
up the question of interference with
reception by foreign countries. The
conference held last March in Ha-
vana, Cuba, between Canada, United
States and Mexico was in a large
measure successful, and it is hoped
that, during another conference to be
held this November, agreement would
be signed that would enable each
country to operate on assigned chan-
nels without interference.
Censorship also was referred -to by
Mr. Brockington. The only positive
rule, he said, will be that there be no
attack on races or religion and that
discussions onbirth control and
eugenics would be banned. Fair pre-
sentation of controversial questions is
one of the policies of the Corporation
but it must be realized that the mes-
sage of broadcasting is received at
the fireside in the relatively unguard-
ed atmosphere of the home.
COURTESY ON THE HIGHWAYS
During the past couple of years
there has been a noteworthy increase
in the amount of courtesy shown by
car drivers on . our highways. Parti-
cularly has this been noticed at night-
time when drivers show courtesy to
motorists they are meeting by dim-
ming their lights.
Driving during the week we have
found that a large percentage of mot-
orists extend this courtesy but on
Sunday nights the number of motor-
ists who dim their lights areinthe
minority. Front this we can draw on-
ly one conclusion and that is that,
motoristswho have to use the high-
way in pursuit of their business dur-
ing the week are well aware of the
hazards of night driving'and take pre-
cautions to avoid accidents at night,
On the other hand one would conclude
that those drivers who have only the
week ends to do their driving are not
aware of the troubles caused by their
own lights and are quick to blame
other car drivers when they have dif-
ficulty in seeing into the glare of on-
coming vehicles.'
It is quite possible that failure to
show courtesy by all drivers is re-
sponsible for many of 'the accidents
which take place during the week -end.
It would be well if all drivers would
make it a point to always dim their
lights when ,meeting traffic: In most
cases it would be found the other mot-
orists would return the Courtesy.

RADIO DIRECTS CANADA'S FASTEST PLANE
TIIE fastest airplane in Canada became the property of the Dominion Government this month as officials
of the Civil Aviation Branch of the Department of Transportation accepted the swift silvery Lockheed 12-A
from Fairchild Limited. This ship is shown at St. Hubert Airport, Montreal, where it will undergo exhaustive
tests before flying to its home base at Ottawa to become the first of the Trans -Canada passenger service.
Propelled by twin 420 horsepower constant speed motors, the adjustable pitch propellers drive this silver
streak at a top speed of 245 miles an hour and a cruising speed of 212 miles an hour at 11,000 feet. Every modern
improvement for comfort and safety, including the latest Northern Electric Radio Beacon and two-way commu-
nication equipment have been built into this ultra -modern aerial argosy which will be recognizable by its letters,
"CF -CCT", and is similar to that which guided and kept Dick Merrill in touch with land during his latest
triumphant dash across the Atlantic with historic news films.

the heavy hitting Newark team which
is probably one of the strongest that

gue. Mulligan held the Bears to two

Toronto \S'tarts Early
On Floodlight Baseball
Owing to the number of requests
from the fans and the fact that other
cities `' in the International League
have already started night baseball
this season, Toronto Club officials de-
cided to hold the first floodlight.
games at Maple Leaf Stadium on June
2rd and 4th when time Montreal Royals
invade the Queen City for the first
time in the present campaign.
The Leafs have had a great deal of
success in the daylight and they ex-
pect to be just as proficient under the
lights. Night baseball appeals to the
great majority of baseball fans and
it is now firmly established as a regu-
lar feature of the 'summer pastime.
It has been the salvation of many
clubs in the minor leagues and each
season finds more of the major lea-
gue clubs in favour of it.
On their first lengthy home stand
which terminated on May 25th, the
Maple Leafs advanced into second
place in the International League
standing by sweeping the final three -
game series from the Rochester Red
Wings. Manager Howley has made
little or no change in the team since
the opening game at Baltimore on,
April 23rd. Not until May 23rd at
Buffalo did he change the original
batting order from the opening game.
The Leafs have proved definitely that
their seven -game winning streak at
the start was no flash in the pan, and
they have sold themselves thoroughly
to Toronto fans.
It was expected that the Leafs
would need some bolstering in the
pitching department and that a more
experienced first baseman and a
shortstop would have to be secured.
But the pitchers have been coming
through with some great perfor-
mances and first baseman Jim Walsh,
the 22 -year-old husky from San Jose,
California,. and little Joe Gantenbein,
the San Francisco shortstop, have
more than made good at their posi-
NEW CANADIAN COINS.
Souvenir hunters are eager for the
new issue of Canadian coins which
have recently beencirculated in small
quantities.
The coins: are modern in their sim-
plicity, and are quite different from
;the King George V issue. Each has
an uncrowned head on the obverse
side.
The reverse side of the quarter car-
ries a caribou head, the date and de-
nomination. Onthe dime is the well-
known ship, "Bluenose", the five -cent
coin features the beaver, and the one
cent two maple leaves.
The coins appear to be smaller than
previous issues, but actually are the
same in diameter. The heavier milled
edge and simplicity of pattern makes
them appear smaller.
The Irish Free State has removed
the duty of Gd (12 cents) per 112 lb.
on wheat imported from any country,
but importation is subject to license
which is governed by crop conditiomms
in Ireland.
Fascination of the Miniature Camera
The original negative of this picture is about the size of a postage stamp
It was snapped from the second row of a theater on ultra -fast film with the
lens at f.2, the exposure 1/25 second at a moment of slight pause in the
action.
THE frequent appearance in maga-
, sines and newspapers of strik-
ing "off -guard' snapshots of promi-
nent persons, such as society folk
dining in a restaurant, or "series
shots" of, the changing expressions
of an after-dinner speaker, prompts
from many readers the question,
"How were these pictures taken?"
The answer in the case of many of
these pictures •is the high-speed,
large - lens miniature camera and
the new ultra -fast flim, which in
combination often maize possible
snapshots at night without extra i1•
lumination of the subject.
The uge of miniature cameras, not
alone for "off -guard" photography
but for daytime portrait studies and
"Scenics"`.of which they are also,
highly capable, has grown with
startling speed. Films are available
that are especially suited to this
kind of work. These pocket-size but
Powerful, precision -built cameras
seem to have for many the fascina-
tion of thehigh-powered automobile
and are bought despite their higher
cost, because "you can go places
with them.'
Just what is a high-speed minia-
ture camera? Essentially itis a very.
small: roll -film camera with a very
large aperture lens such as one rat-
ed at f.2. The exposure required with
an 4.2 lens is only 1/9th. of that
needed for the 4.0.3 lens which is
considered a "fast" lens on the ordi-
nary amateur camera.
Without going into the technical
reasons, it possible to use a muelm
larger and consequently much faster
lens on a miniature camera than
would be practicable on the average
size camera. The small size, the ul-
trafast lens combined with new ex-
tra -fast film,
x-
tra fastflm, make it possible to snap
pictures under conditions which are
difficult for larger cameras with
slower lenses.
You can carry a "minnie" around
in your pocket and whip it out for
any occasion. With good judgment
for correct exposure you can make
snapshots on the stage of a theater,
in a right, Mal), at a prize fight or
at night on a brightly illuminated
street..,
Miniature camera negatives must,
of course, be enlarged to obtain
prints satisfactory to look at. Some
miniature cameras use 35mm. mo-
tion picture size film and give up to
86 pictures to the roll; others usa
somewhat larger sizes, 8 or 16 pic-
tures to a roll. Owing to the rela-
tively low cost ofthe small -sired

The technique of taking pictures..
with a min.iatumre is not much differ-
ent from that with the ordinary, fo-
eusing camera, but there is a valu

more difficult to hold a miniature

tives are essential in this work„
