Some sellers however were. only asking 37 for their pro- duce and this was selling better. Peas were the only vegetables that made an appearance, and they were selling at 40 cents for a small basket or fifteen cents a quart. NO STREET PAVING "IN BOWNANVILLE Civic Officials Caused Much - Inconvenience By Incorrect Announcement Bowmanville, July .15.--Officials and members of the Municipal Coun- cil of Bowmanville are being kept | busy by enthusiastic contractors and salesmen. A news agency has sent out, in sccordance with routine practice an announcement that the Corporation of Bowmanville is calling for tend- ers for the construction of pave- ments on Scugog street, Wellington, Church and Silver streets at a cost of $210,000 (two hundred and ten thousand) which would appear to be a contract worth having. En- quiries having been made brings to light the fact that the Council has not even discussed the question of paving this year, and no advertise- ment has heen placed regarding pav- ing, and fofficials ate that [they have not even enquired about cur- rent prices which is usually the pre- liminary move previous to discus- sion. GAS TANK OF SMITH PLANE FOUND DRY Trans-Pacific Fliers Saw Nei- ther Land Nor Sea During Trip WIRELESS DESTROYED Aviators Explain Why Radio Was Silent for Five Hours (Cable Service To The Times By Canadian Press) Honolulu, July 16.--Having com- pleted their uncertain flight to Ha- wail by deliberately plunging into a tree on the island of Molokai, Er- nest Smith and Emory Bronte ex- plained as they rested in Honolulu today why their radio was silent for five hours after they sent out 8. O, 8S. calls and why they continued on 'to terra firma without {informing rescue ships that they still" were in the air, When still five hundred miles or more from land, Bronte revealed that failure of their gasoline pump led them to believe their fuel was running extremely low and it caused the plane to lose so much altitude that their trailing wireless antenna struck the sea and was torn awav. Dacrease in altitude had the effect of resuscititing the gasoline pump and they shot up into their air again and headed for land without know- ing how Yong they would last, with- out knowing whether their calls had heen heard, and uncertain of their bearings. Navy fliers announced they had salvaged the motor and instruments from the plane and: found the gaso- line tanks absolutely dry. From the time the two fliers left San Francisco Thursday until they were near their destination they saw neither land nor sea. They never had be:n far off their course, and Bronte had heen guilding only Y% a dead reckoning. The plane was in air 26 hours and 36 minutes, during which she travel- led about 2,340 miles. Neither man slept during the flight but said they moved about enough to prevent be- coming cFfimped. Asked if he knew where he was when over Molokal Smith sald: --"All I knew was that we were ofit of gas." Bronte sald: in a long time." Smith declared that they had plen- ty of sanwiches. but that the only one he enjoved was one eaten in sight of Molokai. "If we had nhbt been so excited ahout our gasoline supply we eonld have made the flight in twenty and a half hours, as it wag we figured we had made it in 24 hours flat. John Carew Lumber Com y Purchases Old West End Rink Recently Bought Sykes Plan- ing Mill -- Lindsay Firm Proposes to Use Old Rink For Manufacture and Stor- age of Building Materials. No longre will the old west end skating rink, favorite haunt during the past two years of Oshawa skat- ers and former home of the Osh- awa Curling Club be available for winter sports. Last night details for the sale of the building to the Carew Lumber Company of Lind- £ay, purchasers of the Sykes Ilan- ing Mill were completed and the new owners are now in possession. The Lindsay firm proposes to use the former rink for the manufac- ture and storage of various building materials and its purchase by them comes as the first step in the exten- sive program which was announced when the Sykes mill was bought. Frank Carew representing the Lind- say company and Robert Deverel, of Whitby, former owner, [negotiated the sale. The rink, a frame structure, and standing in the hollow on King St. west has long been a familiar land- mark. It was built many years ago and for a time was used as a gen- eral skating rink. Later when the Oshawa Curling Club outcréew its first quarters on King ptreet east, arrangements were made by which the curlers were allowed to use part of the skating rink. Eventually the Carling Club purchased the building and it was then used solely by the followers of the roarin' game.The continued growth of the club forced the curlers to build larger. more commodious quarters and two sea- sons ago, they abandoned the west end rink and settled in their fine, mew home. Since that time they disposed of the rink to Robert Dev- erel and the building was used once more as a general skating rink. The price which was paid for the building by the Corew Company is not being made public. Though opened for sale only yes- terdavy. a whole street of lots in the mew High Park subdivicion, the for- mer John Wilson property, located near the city limits on King street east have been sold by A. C. Lycett, realtor, who is handling the prop- erty for the owner, John Ferguson. The lots have been purchased by various Oshawa business men.

In recognition of these two facts he was met by the thirty-odd members of his office de- parement, the Purchasing and Ma-| terial Department, and presented' with a handeome mantel clock, by a co-worker, Mr. C, Smedley, to say nothing of a handsome and well pre- and a shower of confetti, The marriage of Mr, Morison is to take place on Monday of next week eymoon trip they will return to Osh- ness with her father, Mr, Samuel Trick of the firm of Gals and Trick.

It may he that some are called to other fields of endeavor, or plerced by Cupid's Arrow, have cast off the rloak of single-blessedness, 'for bet- ter or for worse." It is for no other reason that we take this opportunity to wish 'bon voyage' to our loyal friend and ¢o- worker, Harry Morison, who, after the bells have ceased the'r pealing and the clinking of the miikman 's daily heard at the door, will be using his "mental" patience and experi- ence to advantage on less pliable material, generally speaking, than front fenders, radiator shells, and name plates. It is only of late that we realied that zhis should be the case, although Harry appeared to have fathered the opinion for a long time that there was some) "Trick' in it No doubt Harry is best fitted | to speak for himself on that ques- | tion, So Harry, we feel that we cannot let you go without telling you in how great esteem you are held through- out the D®partment. Your singular personality--brillfant wit and humor (long 0 be remembered) have re- moved many a rough edge from the perplexing problems which we were just yesterday that you were at- tempting to bring a certain member of another company to task for not m. when you had tried to get in contact with him twice before; then in the midst of it all you broke out into rich "hassoprofundo"' of **Asleep in the Deep" or "Show me the way to goHome *" (which, of course, will never be the case after next week), while the varied obliga- to of the remaining group members formed _a more or less harmoniuos background for the same, In the years to come many of us will recall with the keenest delight and personal satisfaction the tactics which you employed in telephone conversations, to keep ahead of the lines in battery boxes and wind- shields. You were "bound to win' since your every aet was natural- ness personified. It could not be otherwise for theh it would not be Harry. It was this characteristic above all else that meant so much to your associates. Our sincere wish ls that it may continue to inspire you to higher ideals and bring you and yours untold happiness through- out the future years. We cannot foreteil what time has in store for you; we can only hope great pleasure jwith this clock that, at its every strike, it may keep count of the very happy hours of the present, and recall the pleasant moments of the past. And, by the way, a ru- mor also is abroad that, since this clock does not possess an alarm, fears are being held out by some members of the Purchasing Depart- ment, that Mrs. Morison Jr. may at ecessory. However, these people have offered to order one *'rush ex- press," "confirmation of wire," and the Follow-up Department will take prompt action under the special supervision of its head to see that it is ready for "production" and is in- stalled immediately.

Gibson, 26, Fatally In- jured--Car Hits Pole When Tire Blows Out CAR TURNED OVER Body Found Thirty Feet Away--Funeral Held Today (By A Staff Reporter) Pickering, July 16.--Followed by his grief-stricken parents and rela- tives, and by hundreds of mourning friends, the body of A. R. Gibson, 26, who was fatally injured on the Kingston Highway near Birch Cliff early Wednesday morning, was in- terred in Erskine Cemetery today, Mr. Gibson's parents, younger brothers and sisters live on the fam- fly farm about a mile north of this village. The father, A. M, Gibson, until a little over a year ago resi- dent at 67 McLean avenue, Toron- to and well known in that city's commercial circles, recently retired to the farm which he has owned for some years. The elder son, whose funeral occurred today remained in Toronto as a valued employee of See and Duggan, Limited, one of Toronto's largest automobile ser- vice firms. Answering a call from friends whose car had stalled on the Kingston Highway early this morn- ing, A. R. Gibson accompanied by 8. J. Lee, a fellow employee, motored to their relief. When just east of Birch Cliff, one of the front tires of their car had a blowout which threw the car in- to-the ditch. They were not travel- 1k at an excessive rate of speed, but struck a wooden telephone pole supported by a steel standard and cable. The car turned completely over and faced in the opposite direction to which they were going. The body of Mr. Gibson was found ahout 30 feet from the car, and this forms a mystery which no one has yet solv- ed. His companion, 8. J. Lee, suf- tered only minor bruises and a small cut in his face. The accepted theory explaining the position in which Mr. | Gihson's unconscious body was found is that he tried to leave the car before it struck the hydro pole, and was hurled to the ground some distance away. The injured man was rushed to St. Michael's hospital where he died at 3 a.m., Thursday, never having regained consciousness, His par- ents were notified immediately af- ter the accident and were with their son until he died. The funeral service today was held at the family residence, at Lot 17. Concession 3. Pickering Town- ship. at 2.30 in the afternoon. Rev. A. R. Sanderson, minister of St. Paul's United Church, Pickering. of- ficiated He was to be assisted,' it was hoped by the family, by the Rev. Thomas Rogers, close friend of the Gibson family. The service was solemnly impres- sive and attended by scores of the young man's Toronto friends in ad- dition to relatives and neighbors in this district. Beautiful floral tri- butes testified to the esteem in which the deceased was held. Am- ong them a wreath from his fellow employees and also from his employ- ers, who feel his tragic loss most keenly. The late A. R. Gibson, was a member of the Kew Beach Presby- terian church and had attended the Williamson Road Public School as Technical School on Harboard street west from which he graduat- ed. Always much interested in automotive mechanics, he had taken several special courses and was re- garded as one of the leaders of his profession.
