Born in the township, of Whitby, on the ] farm between Whitby and Brooklin, on June 28, 1873, W. E. N. Siuclair, the son' of Mr. and Mrs. John Sinclair, has grown from childhood in the section of country in which today he holds such a prominent | position. His early education was acquir- ed in the public school of Whitby and in Whitby Collegiate Institute, and finished in the University of Toronto, from which institution he graduated in 1896. Called To the Bar In 1899 Mr. W. E. N. Sinclair was called to the Bar with a number of other young men entering the' legal profession at Os- goode Hall. Inthe same year Mr. Sinclair started the practice of law in Oshawa opening his office in the store which is now occupied as Horwich's Jewtlry, and as he stated to The Telegram, he "had plenty of room end few calls," but he kept plodding along, untilin 1910 he bought the business formerly carried on by the late C. A. Jones, and removed to the offices at present occupied by Mr. R. Moffatt over the Royal Bank Building. Another move in February 1, 018, when Mr. Sinclair took possession of his present comfortable and commodious officesin the new Bank of Commerce building on Sim- coe St. north. - Served Town Well Mr. Sinclair entered municipal politics | in 1909, winning the election to Reeveship jn that year.

In Provincial Politics In 1911 Mr, Sinclair contested the riding of South Ontario in opposition to the late Charles Calder, for tne provincial house, and held the seat asmember for this con. stituency until 1914, when he was beaten by Mr. Calder. In. 1919 contesting the rid. ing again with the same opponent Mr. Sinclair again won the honors of the riding and is still its representative in the Legis- lature, where he holds the respect and confidence of his colleaghes, and it is even hinted and is More than probable that in the next session he will be at the head of the Liberal party as leader of the opposis tion...
