Although the audience was rather small, the applause display- ed the enthusiasm with which the sclections were received. The pro- gram consisted of choruses, men's chorus, quartettes and soprano alto and tenor solos After the con- cert, the visitors were entertained by the local choir. The blizzard of Sunday made the highway icy, so that travelling on Thanksgiving Dav. was rather a precarious occupation. The wreck- ing crews were kept busy hauling in disabled cars, and the employees of the Highway Department spent the most of the day putting sand on the slippery places. Mr. Leonard Bath, and his sis. ters, Mrs E. Andrew and Miss Bes- sie Bath, were principals in an auto accident on Saturday evening, which, fortunately, was not as serious as it might have heen. They were mo- toring on the highway, east of Pickering. when their, car with Mr. Bath at the wheel, was struck by an oncoming car, whose driver turned quickly to avoid hitting a Yeoagy whose light he did not see, The local dar was forced to the ditch, and was within a few inches of turning completely over, whick would have proved fatal for the oe- cupants. Mrs Andrew, was thrown clear of the wreck, and sustained several cuts on the head and bruises, The other occupants were able to extricate themselves from the wreck, with nothing more. than » severe shaking up, and bruises. The car was almost damaged beyond re- pair. The other car was also dam- aged, and the driver was taken to the hospital but was dicharged the next day The annual A.Y.P.A. meeting of the district was held in St George's church on Sunday evening, with rep. resentatives from branches at St. John's, Norway, Montreal, Peter- boro, Weston, Whitby and Oshawa meeting with the local. branch in the service. Mr. W. R Sproule, Do- minion past president, and curate of the local church conducted the ser. vice, assisted by W. P, Wood, Do- minion second vice president, and Messrs C. Fair and G Dew, of the local stete). The Dominion presi- dent Mr. A, S. McConnell, of Trin- ity College gave the address. The choir rendered spceial musie for the occasion. At the close of the ser- vice. the young people adjourned to the Dunbarton Community Hall, where the visitors were entertain- ed by the local branch and a social hour' was spent, in which many or Barford and Mr. and Mrs. i | the visiting officers spoke Representatives from the wo- men's Missionary, Socléfies, of the United Churches, attended the Sec- tional meeting of the W.M.S. which was held at Brooklin on Friday afternoon. When Thanksgiving Day dawuga bright and clear, the residents of the village had added one more rea- son to the list of things for which they were thankful For a short time on Saturday evening the centre of the town was menaced by a vie- ious gasoline fire, which started a- round JT. Stephenson's bowser tank. A bicyclist stopped to have his chains oiled, and in order to clean them first he tried to get some gaso. line from the tank and in doing so jerked down the hose with sud force that the nozzle was broken and ten gallons of gasoline quick- ly streamed over the ground. The lamp on the bicyele ignited the fumes, and instantly a mountain of {lame shot up in the air to the safety of the gasoline tank, the explosion of which would have wrought havoc with the business places at hand. The local fire crew was called out and was able to ex- tinguish the flames before any seri- ous damage was done, but not be- fore the villagers had realized how near they had come to witnessing a catastrophe. State railways of the Dutch East Indies now have 2,500 miles of trackage, while all the private lines have a combined mileage of only 311,800. Mr and Mrs. J. S. Balsdon and | SUBSIDIES BEFORE PREMIERS' PARLEY (Continued from Page 9) mands and especially so in the care of Prince Edward Island, which, if it is to run a Provincial Govern- ment, should have from the other Provinces, he contended, the aid to which it, in its Provincial status, is entitled. And Prince Edward Island, by the way, launched through its Prime Minister and his Attorney-General the longest appeal of the day. Be- tween the two of them they gave the Conference close on to three hours of argument. It was rather a grey picture they painted, too-- a picture of a Province with no great wealth, with not a single million- aire, with no field for investment, and in such a position, they main- tained, that it could not afford to establish institutions of health, and was unable to provide necessary roads from its meagre revenue, In one of the ablest arguments of the present Conference, Premier Baxter urged the other Provinces of the Dominion to back up the Do- minion Government in its willingness to carry out the recommendations of the Duncan Report. The Duncan Commission represented, he said, an impartial tribunal, desirous of see- ing justice done, and the Maritimes now stood as an individual stands who has had judgment rendered in his favor.
