SHAW’S BUSINESS SCHOOLS 7'1" > MILLIONS THURSDAY, DECEMBER 13th, 1928 HE NEW CABLES, like the brown cord and the loading coil, mean millions of dollars saved. These dollars are dollars in your pocket. Your telephone is being connected with thousands of new telephones'across the country every week yet this .increased value does not cost you more because costs are suc- cessfully offset by the economies which re search accomplishes. The gentleman testing the transmitter and the five thousand working in the laboratories with him are saving money for you every day and keeping the teleâ€" phone adequate to serve the needs of Canadian progress. HERE ARE NEARLY five thousand of them at work in the Bell Telephone Laboratories â€" the largest telephone resarch laboratories in the world â€" and the Bell Tele- phone Company of Canada owns a contract giving access to all the work they do. That is why your telephone system now has the ingenious device known as the “loading coil" which transmits messages over wir‘es fine as human hair. It u5ed to be necessary to have heavy wires, increasing in size with distance. The heavy wires were costly. The loading coil has saved millions in telephone costs. The underground cables developed in recent years are another of a score of similar benefits. They have wires to carry a vastly greater num- ber of messages than they used to, but they are so compact and so efficient that they can be pulled through the original underground ducts. If cables and ducts had to be increased in size with the vast new traffic the costs of telephon- ing would climb sky-high. N THE NEXT ROOM another man is using an apparatus which rubs a piece of telephone cord black and forth until it trays. He is seeking a better cord. He is the man who found that the brown cord in your tele- phone today wears better than the green cord you used to have. You may not have noticed the change from green to brown but it has saved hundreds of thousands of dollars for telephone users. That is the business of these gentlemenâ€"to make a better telephone and save money in doing it. HIS GENTLEMAN is busy “talking tele- phones to death”â€"which is merely a way of saying that he is testing their transmission qualities. ' He is a worker in the telephone research laboratories. He has a rack of telephone transâ€" mitters and a phonograph. He “talks them to death” by means of the phonograph to see whether the transmitters give satisfactory results. There have been 95 different types of transâ€" mitters a‘hd 64 different receivers to obtain the instrument you are using today. And men are at work now to find one still better. Most people, however, regard physi- cal development and health in general, not as an end in life, but rather as a means to an end. Health is the stepp- ingâ€"stone which makes it pessible for us to reach the heights of personal achievements and service, which, gen- ‘erally speaking, are not attained by by those who do not possess health. We are not all born with the same capacity for physical and mental deâ€" There have been times in the history of man when physical perfection was regarded as an end in life. There are to-day a few persons who think of physical development in itself as something worth striving for, and they devote considerable time and ef- fort to attain the condition of physical development which they admire. HEALTH AS A MEANS TO AN END CANADIAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION HEALTH SERVICE OF THE l Bills are out announcing3 a play l“The Eyes of Love” in the Community Hall on Friday evening of this week, {by the Innisfil Chapter of Stroud. Those who have already seen this ‘ play speak very highly of it. A farm owned by the late Geo. W. Murray was sold to Mr. G. Brownlee for $14000, and Mr. Geo. Dibb, of Jefferson was the purchaser of the other farm for $4650. The stock and implements brought a. good sum. Mr. J. T. Saigeon was auctioneer. The Dramatic Club presented their play “Are You a‘ Mason" in Edgeley Hall, last Thursday evening. The musical part of the entertainment was supplied by the Thornhill orchestra. Mrs. S. D. Roberts and Mrs. T. Mc- Bride and Miss Shirley McBride spent several days last week at the home of their parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Saigâ€" eon. We are glad to report that Mrs. Roberts is recovering from her recent illness. The monthly meeting of the W0- men’s Institute was held on Tuesday evening at the home of Mrs, T. Cous- ins. There were about fifty present including a number of gentlemen. A splendid programme was given after yihich dainty refreshments were serv- ed. The expenditure of money on Public Health is an investment that gives good returns. It is an insurance a- gainst sickness, death, poverty and de- pendency that no community can af- ford to neglect. Questions concerning health, ad- dressed to the Canadian Medical As- sociation, 184 College Street, Toronto, will be answered by letter. Questions as to diagnosis and treatment will not be‘answered. O._ Friday last, Joshua J. Kaiser who has been a resident of Maple and vicinit§ for half a. century, passed a- way afte‘ a long illness. He was a son of the Jute Jacob Kaiser, and was of W. E. Loy. list descent. He was a life long Reformer and was always interested in the welfare of the vill- age. In spite of his poor health he attended the C. N. 1‘. this year, being determined to see tye Jubilee Exhi- bition as he had never missed a fair since its inception. His wife who was Miss Hannah Boddy predeceased him sixteen years age. He is surviv- ed by one son Erlin, of Toronto, two daughters, Mrs. W. Carley, of New- market, and Mrs. H. McFeeley, of To- ronto, a brother Peter Kaiser and a sister Miss Sarah Kaiser, of Toronto. The funeral took place on Monday with Masonic honours, the deceased being a member of that order for for- ty-eight years, and the oldest Past- Master in Vaughan Lodge, having that position for forty-three years. A carpenter by trade, many houses in this locality were built by him. The floral offerings were numerous and beautiful and were tokens of respect and sympathy to the sorrowing family from their relatives and friends. Mr. Geo .Kerr has bought the house and lot owned by the late T.J. Wilson. In spite of all that is being said a. bout Canada’s need for more people, it is much more important for Canada that the people who are now here be given every reasonable opportunity to attain health. The protection of the health and the. lives of Canadian Moth- ers, the safe guarding of the native- born in infancy and childhood, are. our first duties, and they are the best foundation for national prosperity and happiness. Death from some communicable dis- ease has cut short many a life. Much has been lost to us because of the un- timely deaths of those who were con- tributing to the happiness and culture of the world. Many a life has been spoiled, quantities of work and plea- sure hindered, by the occurrence of and the disablement caused by some preventable disease. Man needs health if he is to gain his desire. velopment. We should all aim at a full development of our capabilities, both physical and mental. Health im- plies this full measure of development.
