COUNCIL DECIDES T0 CLEAN UP CASE (Continued from page 1) this, the other side claimed would cost practically as much as to buy the 25 acres and when finished the city would ve nothing but a sewer. 'To build the sewer only, one member of council said, would entail the cost of the land on which the sewer would be built, would involve damages to Mr. Butt for what has already been done and might result in further litigation the expense of which would be considerable, When all this had been done, the same mem- ber claimed that the city would have nothing and would haev spent almost $11,000 the amount needed to purchase the whole 25 acres outright, Other members took the iew it would be a mistake to pay $400 on acre for land for a city dump and for land for which the city has no use at present, It was pointed out by these that cer- tain properties near that under consi- deration were at present being sold for taxes, and being snapped up none too reaedily at that, Expropriation of the land needed for a sewer was advised by these members. This suggestion was not concurred in by the majority of the members present, In support of the former view one member of conneil declared that the land was of value and that in a few vears the city, having built it uo by continued dumping would be able to recover the full amount spent by re- selling the land.

He 48 met by Mrs, Harrington who is much distressed by the unseemly actions of her youngest daughter, Patricia, an adorable Cinderella-flapper who is always in trouble and is always blamed for any real or imaginary wrong that comes into the family. She longs to be the "life of the party" and a social success so she buys a set of four hooks called "Wise and Witty Sayings for all Oc- casions," She practices these sayings on her mother and older sister and they think that she has become un- balanced in her mind and so they treat her as a stranger and gen- eral nuisance, In the midst of this recital of Mrs, Harrington's fancied woes, Ggace, the older "sister en- ters, She is, supposedly the beauty of the family and Is engaged to marry Bill Caldwell, a rich man's gon of the town, She dominates Pat- A---- Think of it! ------ Our Midsummer Clearance will start on Thurs- * day morning with Values and Bargains in Ladies' Wearing Apparel that will be the talk of the city for some time to come.

They imagine that y are disgraced but when Billy Cald- well comes in he thinks Patsy was very clever in winning the cup in the way that she did, She had made friends with a pal of the judge and had found out from him who the judge considered to be the greatest Americans in these three capacities and had carried off the prize. It was not long before the telephone rang and she was to go to The friend's home and there she was told that they, at the Country. Club, had awarded her the cup in recogni- tion of her cleverness and sports- manship in returning the cup think- ing that she had won it in an un- fair way, Tony calls and they go on with the lessqns through he is still in ignorance as to the identity of the one who Patsy love and she will not tell because she is afraid that he will not come anymore and will laugh at her, Tony is in the real estate business and has just opened a new park which he calls Patricia Park and he gives Patsy a lot in this Park, Before Tony leaves he had asked Patsy to give him some dances at the Country Club dance to be held the following Friday, The third and last act of the play opened with Mr, and Mrs. Harrington arguing about the Coun- try Club dance, Mr, Harrington says that he will not go unless Patsy is allowed to go and Mrs, Harring- ton will not let her go because Tony will be there and Grace has broken her engagement with Billy Caldwell and is telling everyone that she is going to marry Tony Anderson, Mrs, Harrington threat- ens divorce and Mr, Harrington says that he will leave, Patsy in- tervenes but it does no good and Mr, Harrington tells her that he is going to be boss of his own house and that she is no longer to be the "Patsy." He leaves the house at this point and Mrs, Harrington and Grace go to the dance alone, As soon as they are out of the room Patsy phones to the Country Club and asks for Tony telling him that she cannot come to the Dance and that she has something to tell him that she can't say over the phone. Tony promises to come up and in the meantime Patsy's (father re- turns. Tony's venture in real estate bas turned out for the best and Patsy knowing that Grace has broken her engagement with Billy Caldwell and that she says that she is going to marry Tony Anderson feels that she must tell him about it without @sing any names pf course so that Tony does not know that it is he who is the principle actor in Patsy's story and he ad- vises her to give up the fellow to the girl who says she loves him and wants him because Tony tells Patsy that he wants her. Patsy is now afraid to tell him that she has loved him all the time and Tony thinks that he is rejected in favor of some- one else. Mrs, Harrington, «Grace and Billy return from the dance. Grace and Billy have patched their quarrel and are. going to be mar- ried in two weeks. They are going out now to celebrate and ask Patsy and Tony to go too but they refuse Tony saying that he has some im- portant business to attend to, Tony picks up his hat to go but Patsy calls to him and all is explained satisfactorily between them. The play was such a very great success that Oshawa people will wait with expectation till the Chau- taugua comes next year with a play of as high entertainment and 'amusement.

(14e¢) Brief Comments on Local Sport Ask me another: How. much money is needed to put across the new artificial ice amount is indefinite but 35 grand would certainly put a good sized smile on the faces of the Hambly Bros. There are eight games in all, counting the four slated for tomorrow on the sport card for today and it is only possible that one of them might not be played and that is the Juvenile fixture between South Oshawa and Christians. It is rumored that the Christians have dropped out of the league and this is strengthened by their failure to show up at their scheduled game with Simcoe Street Mets last night. There appears to be an error or an omission made in the bills which are posted around town in regards to the coming tilt on' Wedneesday between the Regina Argos and a local Argos and the Oshawa Juniors, which is far from being the case since there are two Junior teams in Oshawa and the one has no more right to call themselves the Oshawa Juniors than the other, at least until the better of the two has been decided. It is Motors Juniors which is playing the Argos on Wednes- day, while on the day following, the Argos will play the team which they met last year, St. Andrew's, then Juveniles and now in the Junior class. rink?
