The day of 'What was good 
enough for father is good enough 
for me' is gone," Mrs. N, L. 
Mathews, president of the New- 
market Home and School Asso* 
ciation, said at a crowded meet- 
ing in the Stuart Scott school on 
Tuesday evening, 

"Our children will face situa- 
tions we have not had to face " 
Mrs. Mathews said- "They will 
need physical and mental health. 
They need the best." 

The secretary, Mrs. H. E. Gil- 
roy, read the Home antf School 
creed and then Mrs. J. G. R, 
Edwards introduced Dr. W. K. 
Feritdn, Islington, U.OAL . for 
Etobicokt- township. Dr. Fenton 
used movies and slides to illust- 
rate his story of a municipal 
public health program. n 

. Etobieokc, he said, has 18,000 
population, 10 public schools, one 
separate school and one' col- 
legiate. 

"A nurse has a great advantage* 
in persuading people, even edu- 
cated people, of the necessity of 
health measures like toxoid," sajd 
Dr. Fenton as he began to show 
slides illustrating various child- 
ren's diseases. 

There were 745 deaths from 
diphtheria in Ontario in 1920 and, 
with toxoiding starting in 1025, 
12 deaths in 1040, he said. 

"It is part of the nurse's job 
spotting disease," said Dr. Fen- 
ton. "It is not a teacher's job. 
She doesn't understand it." . 

"Measles should not be taken 
lightly," he commented later. 
"They may lead to mastoid and 
meningitis. Children should be 
separated from the one who lias 

it." 

Mumps can cause sterility in 
either a boy or girl. Dr. Kenton 
said. He told of a youngster in 
one of the Elobicoke schools who 
had peeling hands. The nurse 
noted the condition. The child 
brought a note from the family 
physician saying that il was due 
to using too strong a soap. The 
nurse wasn't satisfied and called 
the M.O.I I., who decided that it 
was scarlet fever. There were 
nine cases of scarlet fever from 
that class-room before the disease 
wa« checked, said Dr. Fenton. 

Scarlet fever may extend to 
mastoid, meningitis or lead to 
deafness, Dr. Fenton said. 

Scarlet fever toxoid and toxin 
ore effective against the common 
strains of scarlet fever, Dr. Fen- 
ton believed. Vaccination pro- 
tect* nearly 100 percent from 
smallpox. 

"When you have a large num- 
ber of unvneclnaled people In a 
community, smallpox can spread 
like wildfire," Di\ Fenton Hold, 
•tft is better to be vaccinated 

every seven years. 

"My school nurses are con* 
linually on the look-out for Im- 
petigo, a dirty disease," ho said. 
"Whooping-cough may be fatal 
with children under one year. 
Any child who coughs until ho 
vomits should be regarded as 
having whooping-cough til I 
proved otherwise. In our schools 
we give whooping-cough vaccine 



along with other toxoids. 

"Soon there will be a tetanus 
toxoid combined with the diph- 
theria toxoid/' 

'Showing a tuberculosis movie, 
Dr. Fenton said that under 
Ontario law a person with tuber- 
culosis can be forced to go into 
a sanitarium. 

"I have a great board of 
health/' said Dr. Fenton. they 
bought him movie equipment, 

which he uses a great deal in the 

schools, and a slide la'ntern. 
They bought him an audiometer 
with which he can test the hear- 
ing of 20 children at a time. 
They paid his expenses to go 
away for a chemical warfare 
oourse. 

"This picture brings out that 
we arc in a war against tuber- 
culosis," Dr. Fenton said. "When 
all our young people ore tuber- 
culin tested, we will win it. We 
must fight now and not wait 
until this world conflict is over." 

With the audiometer. Dr. Fen- 
ton said, he and the nurses find 
that about ten percent of the 
school children have defective 
hearing, of which scarlet fever is 

the greatest cause. 

Dr. Fenton said that the public 
nursing system of Etobicoke 
township consisted of Victorian 
Order nurses, St. Elizabethan 
nurses, and three school nurses 
paid for by various school sec- 
tions. 

These nurses do a great deal of 
free work for poor people, he 
said. They had looked after in 
a year JC0 confinements without 
fee, attended 43 operations, 600 
tonsil operations (in three years), 
made 5,700 visits to homes last 
year, largely poor people, to give 
enemas, to do pre-natal, post- 
natal, infant welfare, to teach 
people how to look ufler bedrid- 
den patients and to do all sorts 
of work. 

''They are called on all the 
time ithd if they feel a doctor is 
needed they say so," said Dr. 
Fenton. He said they collected 
fees from those who could afford 
to pay. "They also do educational 
work with regard to toxoids, and 
try In get defects remedied in 
pre-school children so that they 
will be ready for school. 

"At school age the school 
nurses take over. One school 
nurse found 150 cases of needed 
dental care and saw to it tha*. 153 
received care. When the school 
attendance officer reports illness, 
the school nurse visits the home. 
We have achieved a 07 percent 
attendance average in our 
sehoc a," 

(The rest of the meeting is re- 
ported elsewhere in this issue.) 
Principal It A. Jackson of the 
public schools said that "we have 
heard a progressive address from 
a progressive medical officer of 
health from n progressive com- 
munity." 

Mrs. u\ E. K. Hotirkc (Alice 
Strong Rmirke) wing three lovely 
solos. She was accompanied by 
Gerald Kulledge at the piano.

"What about tomorrow," was 
the subject of a talk by A. N. 
Belugin at St. Paul's men's club 
on Thursday evening. 

"We all know what happened 
after the last war, and what, 
incidentally, happens after every 
war," said Mr. Bclugm. We 
first have confusion and adjust- 
ment, then ' prosperity and 
boom ami then comes depression, 
a depression which ends in an- 
other war and thus the vicious 
circle is completed. 

"Can wo avoid this sequence 
of events? We can if we apply 
ourselves to the task with vfgor. 
determination, and, most of all, 
plain ordinary common sense. 

"In suggesting an answer I 
venture to walk where angels 
fear to tread, because these 
angels, the wizards, the experts, 
have so far miserably failed. 
Did not the wizards, the mighty, 
the leaders of yesteryear, tell us 
again and again that the first 
world war was the war to end 
all wars? Did not the lenders of 
recent years continue to advo- 
cate disarmament and otherwise 
act as If in reality another war 
was unthinkable? 

"My contention is that the 
vicious circle of war, adjustment, 
prosperity, boom, depression, 
war, has its root in the lack of 
balance between our modern, 
marvellously developed produc- 
tion system, on the one hand, and 
the antiquated, outmoded, al- 
though basically sound purchas- 
ing or distributing system! We 
learned by leaps and hounds how 
to make biggur and better things, 
how to make more and more of 

them, and how to grow more 
fond, but we did not learn how 
to provide enough money for the 
people, the consumers, to buy to 
enjoy all these fruits of civiliza- 
tion, 
"Can you Imagine a farmer 

plowing, fertilizing and sowing 
with modern machinery, and 

then cutting with an old rusty 

soy the and threshing with n 

Hail? Vet that Is exactly what

"If we all thought alike it would 
nover do." Rev. A. B. Stein, pastor 
of t h u Congregational-Christina 
church prefaced an address at Iha 
Newmarket Liana club oh Monday 
evening. 

"We've got to do something

of yon have experienced two wars,

PASTOR GOES

By REV. ARTHUR GREER, 

• Canora, Sask. 

Having now spent t h r e e 
months in the Canadian west, 
I feel 1 may be qualified to meet 
the request of The Era-Express 
editor that I submit an article on 
any points of interest I might 
encounter in this part of our 
dominion. Newspaper space is 
valuable, so I will endeavor to 
be concise.. 

At the outset, I would like to 
send a word of personal greeting 
from Mrs. Greer and myself to 
the bevy of friends we left in 
Newmarket. The farther we goi 
away from them, the dearer they 
seemed, and in the intense lone- 
liness of our first few weeks, we 
would have given almost any- 
thing for the opportunity of 
walking down Newmarket Main 
St. I frequently said I would 
give five dollars a cup for coffee 
if I could call Mr. Koffend to 
meet me at Alec's as in days of

Town Will Help Pay 
For V.O.N. Nurse, Is 

Promise Of D 




* 



Mayor Dr. L. W. Dales advo- 
cated employment of a Victorian 
Order nurse, with action to be 
taken immediately in the new 
year, at a meeting of the Home 
and School Association on Tues- 
day evening. 

Dr. Dales spoke following an 
illustrated lecture on public 
health work by Dr. W. K. Fenton, 
M.O.H. for Etobicoke township. 
Mrs. N. L. Mathews, president of 
the Home and School Association, 
reminded those present that 
nominations for three vacancies 
on the public school board and 
for the town council would be 
made on Friday evening and 
urged them to take an interest 
as citizens. 

"I am very happy that I am 
still being invited places*" said 
Dr. Dales. 

Dr. Dales said that he had ad- 
vocated appointment of a public 
health nurse for five months as 
a trial. He saw no reason why 
the mayor and the council and 
the M.O.H., "who' is very badly 
underpaid," should be criticized. 
"The council is very sincere," he 
said. 

**1 am very sympathetic with 
the principle of looking after de- 
fects in children," he said. "After 
looking at the pictures tonight, 
one wonders how we ever grew 
up," he joked. 

The Hepburn government, he 
said, had done one wonderful 
thing m giving people a chance 
to go to tuberculosis sanitaria. 

"We have been accused of fol- 
lowing, not leading." said Dr. 
Dales. "Officially we do repre- 
sent a pretty fair cross-section of 
the people of Newmarket, When 
the people of Newmarket arc 
shown that a thing is really 
needed, they usually come across 
with it. Keep up your educa- 
tional work. I congratulate you 
on the aggressiveness of your 
movement for a health nurse. 

"Naturally, we would like to 
see a Rational health scheme. I 
believe you will all live to see in 
the next few 'years a national 
scheme, under which people will 
pay a reasonable fee and get 
health services in return. But I 
presume you are interested In 
the immediate present. 

"Where is the money going to 
come from, and who is going to 
pay for the nurse year after 
year? I know it will pay bin 
dividends. I know the money it 
will save the schools. 

"Somebody has to pay. Some- 
body has to keep up the interest 
in the project even after it gets 
going. You can't drop this on 
the doorstep of Die council or the 
hoard of health. 

"I don't want to get into a con- 
troversy but I wonder if a Vic- 
torian Order nurse has been con- 
sidered. You don*t have to keep 
on with the V. O. N. indefinitely. 

"'Hie executive body for a 
V. O. N. nurse Is a board of in- 
terested men and women. For a 
public heal Hi nurse the board of 
health is the executive. If the 
board of health is not progress- 
ive, your public health nurse may 
not work out as you think. 

"The V. O. N. nurses have 
public health training the same 
as public health nurses. They 
charge fees where people can 
pay. The V. O. N. nurse is ap- 
pointed by the V. O. N., not by 
a local group. The V. O. N. nurse 



would receive a government 
grant, a town grant and n grant 
from an insurance company. 

"You have heard that doctors 
won't look after people outside 
hospitalsi If we can have trained 
nurses in the homes, we don't 
mind doing obstetrics there. 

"If I am mayor of the town 
next year, there will be a com- 
mittee and we will map out a 
program that we would like 
3 V. O. N. nurse to undertake, 
and I believe wo can report pro- 
gress early in the new year. 

"A V. O. N. nurse would collect 
fees. You should get out and 
have tag days, and not drop it all 
t>n the tax rate. Id spite of the 
Urn, we are still leading the pub- 
lic, but we don't want to get so 
far ahead of the public that we're 
following." 

Dr. Fenton confirmed Dr. 
Dales' statements about the Vic- 
torian Order of Nurses, "We 
have three school nurses, paid for 
by the school sections, th:» 
V, O. N. and the St. Elizabethan 
order, supported by the Catholic 
church " lie said. 

u l could mention a garbage 
situalion in this town that Dr. 
Fenton wouldn't put up with for 
five minutes," Dr. Dales said. 
"We need sidewalks, sewage dis- 
posal, etc. We'll help you but 
don't ask us to take the full re- 
sponsibility of organization. Wc 
are behind you but we want 
some financial and moral sup- 
port." 

"A big field day to raise money 
to pay for a nurse is out," said 
W. M. Coekburn. 'i don't sec 
any more reason why a public 
health nurse should depend on 
the success of a field day than 
should school teachers or the 
town clerk. It is a business pro- 
position. A public health nurse 
shouldn't be paid for out of 
euchres. I don't think organiza- 
tions should be asked to con- 
tribute or raise money. 

"The council voted themselves 
salaries this year and bought a 
new municipal office. I com- 
mend them on both points. The 
councillors have given us long 
hours of service and I don't he- 
grudge them any pay. 

"The mayor said that if wo 
could educate the public wc 
could get a nurse by a public 
vole. Children will lose their 
hearing while we do it., I don't 
for a moment think that we could 
have educated the public to the 
point where the, public would 
vote for salaries for the council. 

* l If we look to education 1 
think it will be 1953, nut 1043, we 

ore talking about. 

"I think we would just bo In 
for a repetition of what happened 
to the vocational wing on the 
high school. That was one of the 
worst things that has happened 
to this town since I have hern 
here, 

"I see no more reason why the 
question of a public health nurse 
should be submitted to the rate- 
payers than the engagement of 
another school teacher 'or an art 
teacher,'* 

Among those present were A.

WAR CAN BE 
AVOIDED, SAYS 
A. N. BELUGIN 

(Continued from Pace 1) 



THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 26. 1942 



DR. DALES' PROPOSAL 

Newmarket is fortunate in its municipal govent* 
>/i en!. Newmarket's sound financial position w 
the result of wise leadership a generation a(j<». 
when the serial debenture plan was adopted, and 
the restraint of the councils of the depression and 
war years in not entering into avoidable lieW 

obligations. 

Dr. S. J. Boyd gave the town careful financial 
leadership and his successor, as mayor. Or. L. W. 
Dales, has followed in the economy tradition. We 
have no hesitation in singling out the mayors far 
particular credit, for it is our observation thai the 
chairman has a position of great influence it* 
guiding the council, and that it usually rests with 
him as to whether a council acts wisely or un- 
wisely. At the same time we do not minimize the 
work, the influence or the opportunities of other 

members of the council. 

Nominations for the council take place on 
Friday evening, and apparently the public health 
nurse question has created interest in the elec- 
tions. People rightly feel that now, when their 
representatives "go to the people." is the time for 
them to impress their views and wishes on those 
who seek office. Those who are elected may then 
feel that they are close to the people and that 
they have a mandate to act as their good sense 
and their commitments tell them to act. At the 
present time many people are urging on various 
councillors the desirability of a public health 
nurs<* and others are urging the undesirability of 
such a project. 

Dr. Dales spoke wisely on ^Tuesday evening 
when he said that it was no use foisting a public 
health nurse on a board of health that doesn't 
want one. That was the only reason we were 
reconciled to what we considered an unnecessary 
vote on the question— to win the board's support 
for this health project. Dr. Wesley had said that 
there would be a public health nurse if the public 
voted to have one. That was Dr. Wesley's condi- 
tion ami. in our opinion, It was not an unreason- 
able condition. We are satisfied that if the public 
had voted for » nurse. Dr. Wesley would have 
loyally supported the decision and engaged 
a nurse who would have had the .support of 
council, board of health and public. 

Dr. Dales' alternative suggestion is not an un- 
reasonable one. lie suggests a V. O. N. nurse, 
partly supported out of the lax rate and partly 



by public subscription. That is a fair compro- 
mise, even though some of us sec no reason wfcy 
a nurse's salary shouid not be paid for entirely 
out of taxes. Town revenues, incidentally, don't 
come entirely from taxation of real estate. The 
last couple of years the tax rate has been reduced 
by two mills by <*i surplus from the water and 
light departments, by one mill by a subsidy from 
the provincial government in lieu of income tax. 
and to some extent by fines, licenses, and penal- 
ties and interest on taxes. In addition, a sub- 
stantial part of the tax revenue comes from busi- 
ness assessment, and we believe that business in 
this town is willing to pay a*sharo towards health 
services. 

We hope that Dr. Dales reiterates his proposal 
for a V. O. N. nurse at the nomination meeting, 
and mat other members of the council join with 
him. We hope that they do 9 but we recognize 
that all people don't have to think alike, and that 
the strength of our democratic system rests on 
men who have the courage to think am) act dif- 
ferently, even if their opinions sometimes seem 
lacking in vision and may not seem to be based 
on knowledge and study. 

We also hope, and we believe that every mem- 
ber of the town council wilt join us in this hope. 
that a few new men or women offer their services 
for the council. 



OUR MISTAKE 

in setting forth the financial prospects .of the 
town for next year, in an article last week, we 
.-dipped into an error. We mixed the school year 
with the town's financial year (the calendar 
year). In view of there being two less teachers 
on the public school staff than budgetted for, 
we said that there would be a saving of $1,000 
this year. The fact is, however, that the board 
had the full number of teachers for the first half 
of the calendar year and one of the two teachers 
now off the staff for part of the present school 
year. En view of unexpected expenses, it is 
believed that (he public school board will have 
little saving from its budget for 1942. 

However, even if the public school budget re- 
mains the same next year (and we suppose the 
public school budget should take into considera- 
tion the possibility that the war may be over by 
next .September and that the schools may have a 
normal-sized staff again), the lax picture for next 
year is excellent. Whether or not the town en- 
gages n public health nurse, there is no need for 
a lax rate increase.

I was very interested in reading 
I in the current, issue of The Km 
and Kxpress the Item you have 
under the heading "Knomy 
Aliens," and I quite agree with 
the Toronto Telegram's stale- 
ment or comment published in 
your paper. 

It has been a very opauuc 
situation to me why any Cana- 
dian, no matter what their 
position would he, would want 
to have a foreign alien educated 
In our Canadian universities 
when our own boys are forfeit- 
ing their educations to gu over* 
sens to fight these same people 
or their friends and relatives

standable to mo at all from any 
angle. Wo think wo are right 
or we wouldn't undertake the 
Job that we have already under- 
taken and are going to carry 
through, 

For Instance, 1 know a great 
ninny people who have sons of 
the age to go to university and 
either can't afford to sentl them 
there or they are enlisting In tho 
army, which Is quite right. Now, 
why should those people Join in 
the expense of educating enemy 
aliens, whose kin our boy* are 
fighting, and very rightly ho? It 
seems to me that tho thing Is 
being pushed over that these 
enemy nitons are allowed in our 
own universities without the full 
knowledge of the penpto who 
are paying the shot. I think the 
proper plaeu for these enemy 
aliens would be In tho concen-

than supply. If we have oue 
radio, we want two. If we have 
an old car. we want a new one. 
If we have a new one, we want 
a better one. 

During the last depression 
Canadian formers were being 
ruined because they couldn't get 
more than SO cents a bushel for 
their wheat because there was 
no demand, and yet hundreds of 
thousands of Chinese and Russ- 
ians were starving. 

"Our cure for depression is 

war. We destroy everything wo 
have so enthusiastically been 
building so that we can balance 
'nir production and purchasing 
power, and begin to function 

again. 

"This does not exonerate 
Messrs. Hitler, Mussolini and 
Hirohito of their war guilt. 
They did start the war to pur- 
sue their own ends. Our govern- 
ments did not want this war, but 
they were unable to stop it be- 
cause it was necessary to destroy 
so thai we could build again and 
have prosperity again. This 
formula is so deeply rooted in 
our subconscious mind that we 
do not even realize that we, you 
and I, are all war mongers down 
in the depth of our souls. 

"Let us bo frank with our- 
selves for once. We do enjoy 
war in a way. We crave adven- 
ture, excitement, a chance in 

release our pent-up feelings. We 
also like a little extra profit. 
though huge war profits are nn 
longer available to individual 
industrialists and to them war 
becomes more and more? a pain 
tu the neck. The butcher, the 
barber, the baker, the candle- 
stick-maker earn something 
extra from the boys of the local 
training camps. Factories get 
rid of dead stock. Some of us 
get soft jobs while the war lasts. 
With labor scarce, we can tell 
our boss to go and jump in the 
lake, and even if we don't do it 
Sve enjoy the thought that we 
could if we wanted to. Lei us 
stop being war mongers and 
eliminate war. How? By build- 
ing nur purchasing power up to 
the standards of our wonderful 
producing power. How can we 
do it? My suggestion is so 
simple that I am afraid you will 

he disappointed. 

"Gold is still the one and only 
medium of international ex- 
change. We need to dig up 
more and more gold s* that 
agolnsl It as security our gov- 
ernments could print more und 
more paper money, and put that 
money into circulation. Govern- 
ments would put this money 
Into circulation by means of 
public works and decreased tax- 
ation. The- less taxes we pay the 
more money we have left to 
spend on ourselves and thus to 
give another push to reviving 
business, 

"If the government subsidized 
and helped business engaged In 
gold-mining It could not lose. 
I The government could afford to 
take chances and subsidize prom- 
ising and abandoned mines which 
private enterprise alone cannot 
afford to take chancers on. Sim- 
ply because there is safety In 
numbers. 

"Tho childish suggestions of 
socialistic visionaries lo divide 
the wealth of millionaires among 
the people would never work 
because, In the first place, till the 
money rich peonle have could 
not change the situation, for the 
simple reason that there Is not 
enough to go around. Further- 
more, deprived of his capital 
and the security it offers, no 
sane industrialist would continue 
to run his business-— and then 
whore would be your civiliza- 
tion. I am not bilking about tint 
Idle rich. There are not enough 
Idle rich to be worth mentioning. 

"Let us be the masters of this 
wonderful civilization we have 
built with our Inventive genius, 
our enthusiasm, our ambitions, 
and not slaves shackled to the 
virions circle wo ourselves, 
through one-aided thinking, have 
created,"

In I: VEKY city, town and village throughout 
Canada today there are gaps where once were 
young men. They heard a call and put on navy 
blue, khaki, horizon blue, and they have gone, 
answering a call . . • 

They are missed— missed not only in their 
homes but also in the business places which once 
they filled. 

They have gone from every institution in Canada; 
but from none more than from the chartered banks. 
There is hardly a branch office from coast to coast 
which is not today the poorer— and the prouder 
-rrfor those who thus laid down their pens. 

But every branch manager, as he shook parting 
hands, had this consolation: he could say, "We'll 
hold your place. It wiW be waiting for you when 
you come back. That is a pledge." 

So it is the part of those who remain to serve 
their country in such a way that the promise may 
be kept! "We'll hold your place."

Editor. The Era ami Express: 
It is some time since I have 
written thanking you for the 
paper which' arrives every time 
a mail comes in. 

First of all, I would like to 
convey my sincere sympathy for 
the families that have lost sons 
and relatives in air raids and so 
forth if you will do this through 
your paper. 

ft is fine to receive all the 
news of the old town and to 
know just what is going on, even 
if we can't be there to see for j 
ourselves. We all hope it won't ! 
be long now until we will be 
home again and believe me it ! 
will be a great day when that 
lime comes. 

We are having some very 
queer weather over here at 
present but living in hopes it j 
will clear up soon. 

It seems we can't get cleared 
up with our work, but as long as 
our little bit will help we won't 
mind. 

It is nice to see that the town 
boys are doing so well in this 
man's army, getting commissions 
and so on. It is good to read 
about. 

I take a great interest in the 
hardball league and will watch 
for the hockey season to open, 
which won't be very long now. 

Thanking you again for the 
paper. 

Sgt. Ted Robinson, 
Canadian Treasury Office, 
England. 
Oct. 14. 1942.

FINDS NEWFOUNDLAND 
HIGHLYJjOSPITABLE 

"At last I've gotten myself to 
writing a few lines to thank you 
for the cigarettes I received not 
long ago," Coder Bruce Gould 
writes the Newmarket Veterans 
in appreciation of the cigarettes 
which he has received from 
them. "I guess Bill Shropshire 
has sv.cn you by now and ex- 
pressed appreciation for the 
swell attention we've all been re- 
ceiving here by you and the rest 
of dear old Newmarket. Honest- 
ly it really does make a fellow 
feel good to know that folks back 
home are so keenly interested 
and urging him on. 

"I don't know whether you've 
heard very many tall tales about 
Newfoundland or not— but you 
can take it from me — that as long 
as I've got to he away from home 
this is the place I want to be. 
The weather is not up to what it 
is in Ontario. Things don't move 
along as fast. They do have 
some funny, backward ways and 
ideas hero, but they can be easily 
overlooked. As you won't find 
a more friendly, hospitable, a 
more eager person to take you 
into his home and make you just 
like one of the family than a 
Newfoundlander. There are also 
many very good looking girls. 

"St. John's itself just reminds 
mo of an oversized farming town 
— with just a Hltle stronger smell 
of fish than manure. As you can 
readily understand, fish is the 
national dish and therefore the 
inhabitants are quite witty. (I 
wouldn't want a certain party to 
hear me talk like this. I would 
Immediately be misunderstood.) 
They pre really not accustomed 
to serious compliments— especial- 
ly from sailors. But they do 

* * * 



Editor, The Era and Express: 
Greatly appreciate again receiv- 
ing copies of The Era and Ex- 
press. I might say, boat mail to 
this queer but interesting Island 
is exceedingly slow, arriving 
anywhere between two and three 
months behind, but, although 
late, it is all fresh news to us 
down here. 

Head with interest of the 
whereabouts of other town boys 
on active service in other fields. 
of the success of the Lions club's 
Carnival, the wins and losses in 

the various bowling tournaments 

and of the good work being done 
by the other war auxiliaries and 
organizations. 

Being located, as we are, in the 
tropics, it is difficult for us to 
realize that in Newmarket winter 
must be just around the corner, 
({tiite different from here, as we 
have noticed little change in the 
extreme heat since arriving 
about eight months ago. 

Again let me express pleasure 
about the papers finally catching 
tip with me. 

J. W. Bartholomew. 
(Captain) 
Kingston, Jamaica, 
Nov. 6. 1942 



Editor. The Era and Express: I 
received in yesterday's niall a car- 
ton of 300 cigarettes from the 
Newmarket War Veterans Associ- 
ation. I wish to thank thorn an*! 
the other people of Newmarket 
who make It possible for us to 
receive these lovely gifts. They 
are very much appreciated. I can 
assure you. 

Incidentally, I very much miss 
your weekly newspaper and the 
other magazines and papers I 
used to receive from Canada. 

In closing I might add that I 
ani In good health and looking 
forward to getting back to New- 
market to say hello to all my old 
friends and thank all the different 
societies personally for the many 
gift** I have received through the 
kintlne?s of the people of New- 
market. I remain, as ever, 

Pte. Vern S. Clark. 

(Editor's note— Ptc. Clark's fail- 
ure to receive The Era and Ex- 
press 1* apparently due to n 
change of address.) 



know we love the place — hmm. 

"I guess Newmarket will soon 
be swinging into the hockey 
season again. Hope they can do 
as well ns they have in previous 
years. Without the usual players, 
I mean, as they have probably 
nil joined the ranks by now. 

"Once again I wish to thank 
you for myself and for all others 
who for some reason may be un- 
able to do so for themselves for 
the cigarettes received and we 
all hope Newmarket will keep 
Its chin away up in the nir. No 
one is going to take a sock at It 
os long as wo keep rolling along 
as we have been. Thanks a 
million." 

A card expressing appreciation 
was received from F.O. Jack

MKRCHANTK G1VK PHIZES 
FOR RUBBER MATINEE 

Instead of holding the usual 
toy ami enntied goods matinees 
t]tts year before Christmas, the 
Strand theatre has decided to 
hold ;i rubber salvage matinee. 
In this way the youngsters can 
perform a great service in the 
national emergency. 

The Newmarket salvage com- 
mittee is sponsoring the event 
and will receive nil rubber 
brought in. Secretary W. A. 
Spear has agreed to have a set 
of scales at the theatre in order 
to determine the exact amounts 
turned in. 

The price of admission asked 
of each child is n minimum dona- 
tion of one pound. So get busy 
now, boys and girls, and canvass 
everybody in your neighborhood 
for all available rubber. Prizes 
of two dollars in war .stamps will 
be given to the boy and girl 
bringing in the largest number 
of pounds of rubber. 

These prizes have been donated 
by the following merchants; R. 
C. Morrison, Frank Bowser, Best 
Drug Store and Smith's Hard* 
ware. 

The matinee will be held 
Saturday morning at 10 a.m., 
Dec. 5. Tills will enable the 
children to be out by 11.30 and 
thus be off tho streets beforo the 
noon hour traffic starts. 

Presentation of prizes will 
take place from the stage just 
beforo tho show*.

SAYS ITS MISTAKE TO 
THINK SLOW CHILD STUPID 

Dr. W. K, Kenton, M.O.H. for 
Etoblcoke. sneaking at Stuart 
Scott school Tuesday evening: 
"Our object is to have children 
who ore happy and successful 
members of society. Most child* 
run arc well In body nnd mind, 
AH they ask is instruction and 
example. But In every schoot 
there tire children who ore not 
liood nt their work. 

"These children should be 
studied to sec why thoy are not 
advancing. All our knowledge 
of the world outside us comes 
to us through our senses. If one 
of those senses is defective life 
Is nut normal. The child U 

liable to be awkward nnd slow 
and at odds with the world. The 
child tries for n while to find 
out why he doesn't get on, then 
ho quits and develops utt Infer- 
iority complex. 

Vln my experience of tho 
machinery of public health the 
nurse is » great big cog."

Pantry Shelf* and demonstrated 
a whole day's meals. We, her 
audience, were getting hungry any- 
way, and by the time all these 
tempting meals were on display, 
we were far, far hungrier. 

Miss Haushauser spoke on the 
cereal shelf, the richness of their 
storehouse of vitamins of the B 
uroitp an-1 the different uses to 
which we could put them, 

Bern ice McGJll of thc.Roseniount 
club spoke on "Cottons Arc Smart" 
and had with her two girls, who 
with her.4olf wore dresses made by| 
themselves— and they WERE smart 
and very pretty. 

She showed her book, which 
who wed .-maps of the dresses, also 
fragments of the materials used. 

Thu clou-d thc girl's session, and 
it proved Interesting, InHlructlve 
and enlightening. 

Tile next thing was luncheon, 
and I think nearly everyone 
present had secured a ticket. 
Being near the back of thc con- 
vention hall, we were rather In thc 
vanguard of thone waiting for 
the tanqiirt hall to open. In a 
crowd like that I wl*h for added 
inches, hut 1 was swept in on the 
crcat of the wave of women and 
our little party were fortunate In 
finding four Heats at a table for 
.<cven, almost opposite the head 
tabic. 

Of the three strangers who filled 
the other three places, one was a 
delightful person, one looked and 
acted as if we disagreed with 
her— badly— and one didn't talk. 

As I considered that as we were 
all InAtltutcrv we didn't need any 
Introduction I DID talk, and my re- 
. caption was as nforcflnld. I hope 
I meet my right hand neighbor 
again — she was charming -— and 
with her assistance. Mm. Toole, 
Mra. Ridley, Mrs. Needier and I, 
managed to nurvlve the Iceberg 
quality of the other lady. 

The luncheon was excellent and, 
as most of us had an early break* 
fast, wo enjoyed it. It was fruit 
cooktalh lamb with mint sauce, 
Frcnch-frlod potatoes, green heann, 
Ice cream cake, coffee. 

Of course, just after the arrival 
of Prince** Allco, God Save the 
King had been sung, followed by 
grace, which was also sung. 

Then Mrs. Maynard of Union- 
vllle. who acted ah chairman, In- 
troduced H.U.H., Princess Alice. 

f do not often use "lovely" to 
describe anyone, but It suited the 
princess. She was very quietly 
dressed In gown and hat of wine 
color, and her manner, dignified 
• .""V'it being cold, spoko of a fine 
personality. 

She spoke of her pleasure In 
meeting thc members of our or- 
ganlxatlon, of the sptendld work 
and NEED for the work they were 
doing and what It meant to Britain, 
and she spoke of our task In the 
reconstruction period after the war. 
Some of her closing wordft titruck 
me particularly. "In time of peace." 
she snld. "we didn't prepare for 
war, I*et u», In time of wnr, pre-

that though farm work was a less

villc hnrdballer, goes to the army 
this month too. 

Charlie Smith, Aurora's gift to 
the turf world, became a proud 
father Inst week. A seven pound, 
fourteen ounce baby hoy was a 
pre-Xmns present t<» the Smiths 
and. looking at that weight, papa 
Smith has his doubts whether the 
boy "will ever be able to ride a- 
winner in the King's Plate. 

Sliver ItcnneO, the well-known 
lacrosse referee and a great 
player In his day, is on active 
service again and is a captain in 
the pay corps at Camp Borden. 
Had a short chin with Silver on 
Sunday and he recalled the days 
I when with some of the Toronto 
.,- teams he slugged it out in the 
Aurora town park nnd Bradford 
and Newmarket fair grounds. The 
late "Turk" Doyle, "Kid" Harmon 
and Pete Machcll were some of the 
stalwarts he recalled. Silver wa.* 
also associated with the East York 
hockey club and numerous minor 
lacrosse teams. Hopes to get 

some lacrosse going with the 
aimed forces next year. 

Congratulations are extended to 
our old friend. Wcs. Nlles, who 
after two years of faithful service 
at Newmarket camp, where he 
starred in softbalh hardball and 
soccer as well as being a compe- 
tent N.C.O.. has been recognized by 
his superior officers and sent to 
Three Rivers, P.Q.. from whence 
he will graduate in a few months^ 
as an officer. Nice work, **Mr." 

N«es. 

Tradition again merits a note, 
and this time it is the Chicago 
Black Hawks. For years the late 
"Chuck" Gardiner was the bul- 
wark of the team and one of the 
game's greatest goalies. The grim 
reaper picked him off when he was 
in his prime and since that time 
the Hawks have hftd no regular 
tunm captain, nor will one be 
appointed to suceed "C h U c k." 
Each game the Chicago players 
elect a captain for the game In 
hand, alternating it around among 
the boys. 

•ittnmy Nolan, the well-known 
Hrodfnrd sportsman and ft nice 

flrst-hascmnn In hardball a few 
years back, gets an orchid for a 
fine performance In the clinches. 
Nolan Is employed In a war plant 
now but leave of absence was 
obtained for him to take over the 
sale of Victory bonds in Bradford. 
Jim slammed out a four-bagger. 
He sold $63,500 worth of' bonds to 
set the pace for all Simcoe county 
nnd put Bradford In first place In 
tho South Simcoe returns. HU 
percentage was 141.2 and the 
Nolan silver tongue sold security 
and safety to 157 customers. 

"Put" Patterson, who played 
with Marknam Juniors lost year 
and with Bolton the year previous, 
is currently featuring with "York 
Arsenal In the West Toronto 
league. Pat played with "Zephyr" 
In the Mount Albert tournament. 

Pelcrboro romp won the inter- 
mediate title last year by defeat- 
ing "S c o t ty" Moir's Merrltton 
team. Now they may not be nblo 
to play even though they have a 
bigger and better learn lined up. 
The owners of the city's rink have 
announced they will not run the 
rink this winter because of the 
fact a floor has been Installed In 
the rink which proved to bo a 
money maker for. dancing and 
unless u system can be devised to 
protect It hockey Is out. A delega- 
tion was sent to Bnrrle to see 
what system was used there, where 
the same situation prevails, but 
apparently It wasn't feasible In 
the llftloek city. Now Lindsay rink, 
operated by tho Klwnnls club, with 
no club likely there, has come to 
tho rescue. 

Bon met of tho week comes from 
tho Archbishop of Canterbury. 
Says tho archbishop, a golf addict, 
who has quit tho gamo; "I bogan 
to wonder why I should core 
whether tho ball went into the 
hole or not. It generally didn't." 
Montreal St. F»tn-nro no longer 
in senior hookoy. This is tho club 
that was after "Scotty" Mnlr Inst 
season. Tho reason for the with- 
drawal i» tho fact that tho hackers 
were Involved In that big govern- 
ment war contract scandal. Inter- 
esting sidelights of tho whole thing 
Is that tho firm worked on a cost- 
plus basis, and $11,000 per annum 
was ivald to Lionel Connchor, 
presently dlroctlng athletics for tho 
R.O.A.F., na vice-president of tho 
firm. $10,000 was charged up for 
amateur hockey expenses. The 
whole thing speaks for llsolf, and 
amateur sport Is welj rid of the 
St. Pats and their promoters. 

.lack Ingnhlftby, the big Do I.a 
Salle jn:l whom n few weeks ago 
we called onn of ilia best players 
ovor to appear In the local arena, 
has been signed by tho Toronto 
Maple Leafs nnd Will bo scon In 
notion Hkoly this woolc, Dcsplto tho 
fact that It la a whole- tot different 
I playing against pro team* than 



College, we are confident he will 

make good in a big way. He is 
rugged, a wicked shot, moves as 

fast as a Heinle crossing the Liby- 
an desert, and has what it takes 
both in brains and moxie. 

The mail bag brings a few lines 
from "Turk" Ferguson, orstwhile 
bashing defenceman of the Aurora 
juniors now stationed nt Camp 

Shilo in Manitoba. Says Alan: 
"We are on a winter's test pro- 
ject on all army equipment and 
Dave ("Red") Mathcwson. th for- 
mer Aurora cyclist. Is with us. 
The camp is very sandy and the 
wind is Very cold, as there arc no 
trees around to stop it. 3t has 
been bitter cold today and we arcf 
wearing our winter clothes, and 
then some. There ore a lot of new 
buildings going up and the food is 
good, which means a lot. The 
closest place to camp is Brandon, 
about 20 miles away, but the only 
transportation Is by train. Have 
not seen Howard Morton yet but 

soon." 

Ynkc 'writes from New- 
foundland: "Will not get home for 
Xmns but send my regards to nit 
the gang. I know your column is 
read by all the sports fans in 
North York. Did you know Los 
Kerr of King City who ployed 



hope to 
"Ace" 



Ilinly Ilodgins, another Stouff- soccer? We had a "chat the other 






day. Our Tiger team of 3SM0 is 
scattered nil over now, isn't It? 
Always think I'd like to see 
'Pepper* Martin play for the Maple 
Leafs some day at the Gar-tens. 
As you know, he always was my 
favorite player." (Aside to Yoke— 
we don't know where Martin is 
but we do agree he would look 
pretty good in a Toronto sweater 
right now.) 

ISob Lnwrh\ with the R.C.A.F. in 
Toronto along with brother Hi. 
now in the army, or else brother 
Ernie, are slated to play with 
C.P.B. at Varsity arena. "Army" 
Armstrong of last year's Markham 
team is with the same outfit, as 
is George Scott, former Aurora 
and Markham player. - 

Joseph B. (inmost died a few 
weeks ago In Philadelphia with 
scarcely a lino being written a- 
bout him despite the fact that he 
made a lasting contribution to 

hardball, for he was the Inventor 
of the catcher's mitt. Way back 
in 1SSS he got tired of seeing the 
catcher sitting in row Z of the 
grandstand. His new mitt immedi- 
ately put the catcher out In the 
name where the fans could see 
him. at a time when the doughty 
boys who stood behind the platter 
had nothing but broken hands and 
gnarled knuckles to . show for 
their work. The first catcher's 
mitt was made from a piece of 
leather from the belt of a Norfolk 
jacket, a bit of wire, sheepskin 
padding with a covering of buck- 
skin. Time, of course, has made 
the big glove a de luxe product, so 
big. In fact, that It was one of the 
first things that hit the eye of the 
rationing board in the States. 
Onnson, as much as many of the 
player greats, deserves n place in 
the hall of fame at Cooperstown. 

Sgt IllcU Pearson, the Sutton boy 
who has won a name for hlmseff 
In the fast track circles in the Old 
Country and given North York n 
nice boost too. is a lad not too well- 
known to the rest of North York 
and this corner Is pleased to be 
able to throw some light on his 
history and achievements. He Is 
now 24 years of age. height 5* II" 
and weighs 155 pounds nnd inci- 
dentally Is ft grandson of the late 
Dr. Nathaniel Pearson of Auror-t. 
At the ogc of It he had a serious 
knee injury, and it looked os If 
he would never be able to partici- 
pate In sports. Oood medical care, 
encouragement at home, and per^ 
severance righted tho dinky mem- 
ber and at Runneymede C.I. ami 
Sutton high he annexed n fine list 
of events, being champ nt the 
tatter Institution. After high 
school days ho entered Queen's 
University at the same time ns BUI 
Frit*, the great Canadian mRtfter- 
mller and other star prrformers 
were putting tho waning track flag 
of the trl-color college hack to Its 
pristine. Young Pearson nnd 
FYntz were pals and Bill, in those 
days, with the possible exception 
of Johnny lx>aring. the fastest 
quartermller In Canada, brought 
out the best In the Sutton lad. 

In the Interscholastic track 
meet In Montreal In 1038 tho 
Queen's team sped tn a record- 
breaking Intel collegiate triumph 
and Pearson played an .Important 
part In tho raco against strong 
competition. The nest year war 
came ami Olck enlisted with the 
dental corps, going overseas late 
In 1041. H(a biggest triumph was 
on July 1 lost when he won the 
220-yatxls and tho 440-yurrta events 
at the Canadian army mnet, in 
August ho finished second in a 
matched fl.unrtflr-rn.1to race, nnd 
mado n flno showing In the Inter- 
corps games, nor ring Injury or ft 
bllghty, next season should find 
him ready to vie with the hest In 
tho empire. 

Wo know Sgt. Pearson and his 
family are modes! about his 
achievements hut work well done 
deserves soma spotlight. 

Hilly Hewitt was nn hand for 
the O.H.A. convention and with 
his elect ton by acclamation entered 
his 30th term on the executive. 
The O.H.A. Is only A3 years old 
nnd so, with tho possible exception 
of Capt. Jim Sutherland of Kings- 
ton, "W.A." Is tho daddy of them 

nil. 
Herbtn din, now In hh tenth 

season in professional ranks*, had 
not boon clicking for srorlng 
points too well until Sunday, when 
tho Toronto team visited Boston. 
Up to then bo had but two assists 
to his credit. However, he drilled 
home two beauts past Ilroda, nnd 
the Leafs lost by only one goat. 
Tho weak previous U was Bill 
Thorn* who sent the Leafs homo 
from Chicago with a Ions pinned 
on them. "Newmarket Bill," one 
of the most patent marksmen of 
last season, now has ton scoring 
points to his credit and Is bended 
for n big season. Thorn's, bus 
been playing In the monlcd ranks 
two years longer than ITorble, al-

and most of us were getting

He said that they were freshly

Mr. Rose argued that the charge 
against Mis. Pollock should he 
dismissed, as there was doubt as 
to when the fish wore caught.

According to W. .11. McRae, 
ration officer of the wartime prices 
and trade hoard for Toronto and 
surrounding territory, the defend- 
ant had made an application for a 
temporary ration card for Joan 
Pau| Ktoutenhurgh, TV. R. 1, CJorm- 
ley. He said that when the 
temporary ration card expired, a 
permanent ration hook was Issued 
for the child in question. Another 
temporary card and permanent 
book were issued for the same 
chit«| on the application of Mrs. 
Ida Mac McRoherts, he said. 

**l asked Mr. Stoutenburgh how 
many members were in his family 
and he said his wife and himself." j 
testified George If. Tuft, investi- 
gator of the wartime prices and 
trade board. "He admitted that 
he signed the card. He said that 
his wife was ill for some time. I 
asked hhn about Joan Paul and he 
said that she was the granddaugh- 
ter of Mrs. McRoherts, who Uveil 
in Victoria Square and who came 
to his house once u week to clean 
and brought the child with her. 
He said that lie thought a great 
deal of the child and gave her some 
of her meals. He said that he put 
her on the ration card and realized 
now that he made a mistake and 
'was foolish." 

The witness said that, only one 
coupon had been used on the ration 
card and none from the perma-

had. Ho admitted that Mr. Stoui-

age and lived In the country 
nearly the whole of his life, hnd

and did not try to mislead him but 
hnd voluntarily given him the 
ration card and hook. 

Finding him guilty of travelling 
GO miles an hour on Vonge St. his

was laid by Provincial Constable

of the downstair vacant room one 
evening a week. This would not 
interfere with Mrs. McLean using 
the room in the day-time, she 
said. 

Mrs. R. J. Rogers, Sharon, will 
direct a "nursing reserve" course, 
Mrs. Stephens said. "We know 
wars always bring epidemics,'* 
she said. "We are situated be- 
side a military camp. While 
there are inoculations, we know 
what happened in the last war. 
Planes move from continent to 
continent. Disease can spread

be ready to meet any emergency. 
Nurses are scarce and doctors are 
few and far between." 

Mrs. Stephens said that Vic- 
toria Square was a pioneer in 
nursing reserve work. 

The board decided to pay 
superannuation of $3.85 a month 
for John Scott, now in the army, 
until the end of the year, with 
any further payments to be dis- 
cussed by the 1943 board.

the last two weeks saw us wink-

A few nights ago. 1 drove 
homeward between 12 midnight 
and 1 a.m. On the way, I noticed 
two farmers still threshing, one 
by the combined lights of his 
tractor and car, and'thc other by 
I he lurid glare of a burning 
straw stack. Such sights have 
been common, for farmers will 
stay at the job as long as the 
threshing teams will consent.

Many peojrte say, 'Annihilate

people. Somebody else Say*, 'Take 
Germany over and educate them

"Others are going to prevent 
war by a state of preparedness. 
You won't agree, but that doesn't 
matter, as long as we start think-

not by preparing for war. That

"Civilization must destroy war. 
or war is going to destroy civiliza-

OPPOSES SUNDAY MOVIES 

Hev. Henry Cotton, pastor of 
Trinity United church, Newmar- 
ket, makes the following sug- 
gestion in a letter to a Toronto 
newspaper; 

There is a very simple and 
practical solution to the problem 
of entertainment for the men and 
women in the armed forces on 
Sunday afternoons. If the movie 
magnates are actuated by al- 
truistic and patriotic motives — 
and we may assume that they 
are — Jet them provide the best 
films available to the Y.M.C.A. 
representatives, Salvation Army 
representatives, or the padres in 
the various camps. 

Good projectors, operators, 
recreation halls and drill halls to 
nrrommodatc crowds are avail- 
able in most camps, nnd there are 
ample padres or other competent 
leaders in nearly all camps, 
especially in large centres like 
Toronto, where the problem of 
entertainment appears to be most 
acute. Thus the needs of the men 
and women would be met; the 
moving picture houses would re- 
main closed on the Lord's Day, 
as they should, and o*ir Canadian 
Sunday, of which we are proud, 
would be conserved.

urally, there are very few 
Britishers in Vcrigin, home-site 
of the late Peter Verigin, head of 
the Dukhobors. I rather imagine 
that a good many easterners en- 
tertain the idea that these link- 
honors are biological phenom- 
ena, who stage nudist parades 
every summer. But such is far 
from true. For the most pari. 
Ihey are respectable citizens, and 
very good farmers, and the 
nudist parades of ten years ago 
were conducted as organized 
protests against something or 
other. * 

The Dukhobors came to Can- 
ada with the understanding that 
they would never be called upon 
lo take tip arms. But as onv of 
our Englishmen who lives 
amongst them said, "They were 
religious when they came here; 
they wouldn't cheat or steal or 
swear, and they wouldn't fight; 
they wouldn't even touch tobacco 
or alcohol. But now they drink 
and smoke and steal nnd swear 
with the worst of us, so we might 
just as well give 'em guns and 
send 'em over." 

I am somewhat inclined to 
agree with the friend Just 
quoted, for they have broken al- 
most every tenet of their agree- 
ment, but still hold on to their 
special privileges. When other 
farmers couldn't find help at any 
price, the Dukhobors were har- 
vesting their crops and coming 
to town for their new clothes 
while the Canadian farmer's 
grain lay un-stooked in the field, 
simply because the Dukhobors' 
sons and daughters arc nil at 
home. 

Here Is a little revealing in- 
cident from the harvest field to 
conclude this article. It happen- 
ed on Labor Day when we were 
Stocking, Mint being one of the 
fivo fine days In our first 30. 
My companion in s looking was 
the C.C.K, provincial enndidnte 
for this section, and the gentle- 
man manning the tractor and 
binder was the. C.C.K. dominion 
member for Yorkton. 

'You fellows stook until 
lunch," he sold, "and then you 
can change with us on the trac- 
tor ami binder." However, after 
lunch they fooled us. They ate 
theirs nt a distance from us, then 
climbed aboard nnd went to cut 
nt the other side of the Hold. 
Why not go over nnd dislodge 
them? you ask I Because the 
field covered 160 acres, As Har- 
vey McCordick would 
"That la too far to 



besides, never trust a politician." 
■ Well, to complete the story, 
they finally let us take over At 
7.30 run. after wo became suf- 
ficiently incensed to walk the 
length of the "field." We work- 
ed until darkness fell, and then 
simply switched on the tractor's 
headlights, and kept on going 
until the field was all cut. Sup- 
per nt 11 p.m. It's a great 
country! My wife nnd the wee 
Grcers join me in saying that we 
think we'll like it. 

RS. — 10 a.m. Nov. 7, temper- 
ature one below zero.
