It is not the current news 0f events alone that makes the press of such incalulable value to the nation, nor the free editorial expression of opinion.’ The business news of the day, as told by business concerns in their announcements to the public, decisively influences both the volu- me and the direction of trade which flows to this or that store, office or bank. This is a fundamental fact no businesshouse can afford to overlook. Instead of a theatre or a dance after a day of toil, this investigator uto the causes and remedies for fatigue recommends repose, sleep, so]- tude, quiet and inertia. The rest cure he advocates for the tired busi- iess man is not golf, motoring, a sea voyage or two weeks at a shore ‘esort. For such, if they really desire rest and recuperation and not merely a vacation,. he prescribes a retreat far from the crowd, devoid if activity, the society of others and other disturbing influences. I THE VACATION DELUSION Another popular theory has been exposed as a delusion. A French zvriter vehemently refutes the common supposition that the way to rest Is do something else, to spend a day or a week doing anything that one loes not do the rest of the year. This, he says, is only “getting tired mother way.” No time is more propitious than the present for removing some mis- understanding Uf that great accepted institution, the vacation. Though it destroy\ the institution itself, the pronunciamento is here is sued that the vacation is no longer used as a rest cure and is not neceâ€" ssary as such to the average worker. If there was ever a time when people went on vacations to rest after their labors, they now return from their vacations to rest after their labors. Of course he is right. And the truth of the matter is that his theory 1215 always been put to practical use. People who go away to rest ‘lon’t delude themselves into thinking they obtain that needed reconst- ruction of mind and body by participating in sports and mingling with the mob. They seek out some quiet nook and strive with as little effort as possible to see, hear, speak and do as little as possible. Money may get a: man into trouble, but it is usually more helpful in getting him out. Modern terms are courteous. A “fish-pole complex” much better than "laziness." ‘ Shock absorbers on autos would be' better if the driver could wear them. The “upper class,” is much like the others, except that it doesn’t wash it’s OWn cars. Sometimes a man finds he can’t make ends meet because they are loose ends. All that stands between us and a hot time is the rest of this sum- mer’s ice. With so many other things to worry about some men insist on won dering if their hair is combed. Many a man galls his wife the better half. when she is abqut 90 per cent of the family. How dull business would be if every man refrained from buying until he could afford it. i HOW DO YOU READ ? “Tell me what you eat, and I will tell you what you are,” has cried a publicist so often that he has Coined a household axiom. Well might another say: “Tell me what you read and I will tell what yfiu are!” The mind is the house in which we live more. truly than is the body. If we furnish the mind garishly we must live in a garish house. ‘ If we furnish the mindcarelessly, we must live in a slovenly house. If we take our mental furniture only from the past, we live in the past alone If we take it only from the faddish notions of the present we shall live amid fads and foibles, which vanish e’er we know them. But if, on the other hand, our mental diet is balanced, comprised of the foods tested by time and sauced and spiced by the piquancy of the present, we may live a balanced, ordered life. ‘ . We can with impunity pour poisons and dark, wild, disordered thou- ghts into our minds no more than we can day after day find strength and health from spurious f\oods, hastily prepared, indigestible. To read well, read discriminatingly, Widely, thoroughly. What we read becomes part and 'parcel of us. ' I pray Almighty God that the words I write in this house may be pure and honestâ€"thin: they be dictated by no personal spite, unâ€" worthy motive or unjust greed for gain‘; that they may tell the truth as far as I know itâ€"â€" and tend to promote love and peaceâ€" amongst PAGE TWO Men who write books about themselves are full of their subjects, The man who talks to himself wants to hear something he can believe A man may be down, but he is not out until he is down in the mouth A good reputation, like charity, covers a multitude of sins Two married people can live cheaper than one single man in love Established 1878 AN INDEPENDENT WEEKLY PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY AT RICHMOND HILL THE LIBERAL PRINTING CO., LTD.

POWER OF ADVERTISING THURSDAY, JULY THE LIBERAL TELEPHONE 9. 28,1927 sOunds so I Patrons of the radials in this district have for some time freely voiced com- Eplaints regarding prisoners for the Jail ,Farm travelling from the city on the ‘ street car with other passencrs'and the ‘ matter will shortly” be brought to the attention of Mayor Foster and the City of Toronto officials. It is understood that a formal coniplaint will be laid by the Thornhill Ladies Golf and Tennis lClub, as many of the members of the ‘club who journey from Toronto find present conditions objectionable. Miss Ada MCI/{enzie of the Golf Club in con- ‘ versation with The Liberal this Week ‘ stated that \Toronto members took strong exception to the prisoners travâ€" elling on the cars and especially par- ents who had children coming up to the club alone did not want them trav- elling in s‘uch company. The prisoners are taken to the North Toronto termiâ€" nal under police escort in the police van and travel to Langstaff on the 11.05 and 11.55 cars. At Langstaff they are met by the “fish Wagon” and taken up to the farm. Although the prisoners are taken to the smoking compartment of the car the number is sometimes great enough to take the seating capacity of this section and the overflow are seated in the other part of the car. Why the prisoners are not taken direct to the farm by police van whicl\ is only a matter of a few miles mm from the city limits has always been a mystery to patrons of the road, and if the complaint of the Thornhill Ladies Golf club is enetrtained by the officials this is the action which will iprobably be taken. ‘ Officials interviewed on the subject could give no explanation why radial cars are used while the city cars are not, other than that it has always been the custom and is still done. However recent’ developments which have brou- ght the matter to a head will probably resultin the jail farm.guests travelling entirely by motor to their temporary abode at Langstaff.

McMahon DO YOU REMEMBER This \Ve’ck of 1905 A Botched Job Is usually one done in a hurry, by_a printer who was not able to subâ€" mit a proof to the buyer of the printing. The price at which the job was done necessitated quick work on poor stock and the minimum of attention to detail. The customér uses the printed matter much against his will, and possi- bly to his detriment so far as his customers are concerned, all because the printing was done by a printer without an established reputation and that the job was not checked before printing. The Liberal will always gladly submit proofs of all work to customers anywhere in the district so that it may be carefully checked for errors, and altered for appearance if deemed advisable, while any desired ad- ditions or deductions may be freely made. This results in a satisfact- ory job of printing, and pleases all concerned.
