About seven o'clock, when he was contemplating a peaceful eve- ning at home, a knock was heard at the door, which he opened, and peered out into the night, The fog was dense, and visibility was very poor, but like a snap two men stepped into view, and the cold gleam of a revolver, shining in the glow of the electric light, appear- Instantly all 'was confusion, as Myr, Burrows tried to keep his home safe from the depredatio . of the two marauders who had appeared suddenly from the dark, Crying for help, he fought them off and down the steps, but the second man struck him over the head with 8 weapon which Mr. Burrows could not see, raising a very noticeable welt on his forehead, They be- eame frightened, and vanished without any spoils for their trou- ble. : : Mr. Burrows immediately noti- fled the local police department of the occurrence, and the chief him- self, aecompanied by Mr, Burrows and a constable, patrolled the dis- trict in the police automobile, but the dense fog prevented success: ful work, An accurate descrip tion of the men was furnished by , Burrows, however, We Ret of Police Friend point- ed out in his annual report, maae public -a week ago, the installing of chain locks would lessen the danger from intrusion of this kind, When the householder answers the door, and the chain lock is on, he ean easily prevent the persons from entering if he desires, and on the elcome visitor, As the chief ates, the increasing prevalency of theft crimes in this city makes fur- ther precaution, including better types of locks, necessary, Recent Deaths WILLIAM WILSON At hig home in Harmony, the death occurred yesterday after- noon of William Wilson, a native of Oshawa, and a life-long resi- dent of this district. Mr. Wilson had been ill since the first of the year with pneu- monia, and had spent some days fn the Oshawa General Hospital in a vain effort to effect a cure of his malady.

This was the comment of Fire Chief Elliott this morning on a fire which occurred at the local store of the 1, Eaton Co, Simcoe strect north, at 1.40 yesterday afternoon, in which about $10 damage was done. The department answered a still al- arm, by a clerk of the store, and extinguished the blaze without ring ing a general alarm, The fire was caused in a unique way, and might have deveioped into a bad conflagration had it not oc- curred at the time of day it did, The cause was a cigarette butt, which had been thrown at the cuspidor in the bowling alley above. It had missed the cuspidor, however, and, by a trick of fate, had gone down a small opening around the steam pipe, and rested among some dirt, ete, against a beam in the floor, It must have PEOLAR PEOPLE EXPECT GOOD YEAR (Continued from page 1) ings in beautiful and varied de- signs. Other products seen in the making included Coroner Beads, Channels; "George" and "Osh- awa' Shingles, "Nu-roof," Corro Orimp Roofing and the many oth- er allied lines that go to make up the host of products manufactured by this progressive Canadian or- ganization. During the afternoon session a description of the Hipel-Pedlar Plank Truss Barn was given by a representative from the N. 0. Hipel Co, This innovation in barn construction is the result of com- bining the patented truss, plank frame feature with Pedlar Roof- ing and Siding, making an unus- ually sturdy combination that has already won an enviable reputa- tion throughout Ontario. In the evening the visitors were entertained at the local bowling and curling clubs. On Tuesday a very interesting series of motion pictures showing the manufacture of shget steel and bars was ex- hibited. This picture was present- ed in story form from the min- ing of the ore to the final pro- duction of these products in the factory. Another film depicted the installation of concrete vaults re- inforced by Steelcrete in the Mit- sul Bank at Tokio, Japan. This picture conveyed some idea of the remarkable advance made in modern bank construction in the Orient. In Canada this Pedlar re- smouldered there for some time, but the continuous supply of oxygen from the door of the Eaton's store underneath opening constantly, caus- ed it to burn faster than it otherwise | would have, and it broke oui] through the ceiling of the Eaton | store. One gallon of chemical was all-that was required by the de- partment to extinguish the blaze, but it was in such a position that at might have burned several hours and broken cut in the middle of the night with nobody around, had it started later in the day, SALES FORCE | BANQUETTED (Continued from page 1) city as general sales manager, re- sperded to the toast, thanking the head office for their kindly words and also eonunended work of the sales force and other departments of the instituticn, ! N Ludwig, who has Leen a director of the company for forty years, and who is the firm's legal ad- viser, reviewed in an interesting way the history of the company, laying stress upon the various steps mark | ing the growth mn business. He paid tribute to Mr. Geikie and nis asso- ciates for efficiency and their enter- prising spirit in bringing the industry up to its present large proportions and high standing in the Dbusmess world, . As an instance of prolonged and consistent effort in the firm's ser- vice, the information was provided] that three employes had contributed | together, 100 years of good work; these are Michael Sweency, 30 years; Wm. Allen, 35 years, and F, L. Ma- son, 34 years. Mr. Mason rcad an article contributed by an employe which recalled the days when shingle' making in Oshawa was accomplish-/ ed by hand with pine blocks as the raw material, and followed through! the adyance in manufacture by the adoption of the shingle saw, and on to the introduction of metal shinglel manufacture, as adopted and improy-| ed by the Pedlar People. A fine musical program was pro- vided by a Toronto quartette while a number of the guests contributed to the evening's program with ad- dresses and other forms of enter- tainment, Business cares were forgotten dur- ing the evening and all united in a social way to remew the harmonious spirit which has always prevailed throughout the institution, FIBE IN GARAGE Yesterday afternoon the local fire department answered a call] to 129 Arthur street, where a small fire occurred in a garage. Damage | was slight. | ihe inforcing was recently employed for a similar purpose in the erec- tion of the Royal Bank Building at Montreal. A theatre party in the evening provided much en- joyment for the attending dele- gates. On Wednesday a talk was delivered on Lupton Steel Shely- ing--a produet now made in Can- ada by the Pedlar People. Metal Shelving is superseding the ordin- ary wood article all over the United States and is proving very popular in chain stores and other places of business because it is more easily kept clean and fis much stronger and fireproof. Fol- lowing the discussion of shelving, Mr, W. E. Cox, Norris-Patterson, Ltd., Toronto, gave an address on the Pedlar Advertising Campaign for 1928, pointing out the ad- vantage of selling appeals direct- ed entirely to the group that pur- chase certain products and through the mediums that reach such groups, This specialized appeal has proved effective in other lines as was shown in the volume of increcsed sales, Portfolios of the Company's advertising campaign were passed around during the speaker's remarks to acquaint the representatives with their firm's publicity for 1928, In the after- noon B. J, Brown, General Sales Manager, gave a review of 1927 sales and the outlook for 1928. His address was very enlightening and showed the remarkable ex- pansion of the firm's business during the past year and the fav- orable signs of a greater devieop- ment in the coming months, In the evening a banquet was held at "Welch's" where business and speeches were dispensed with ey- eryone settled down to the en- joyment of the occasion, Splendid entertainment was provided by the Orpheus male quartette of Toronto. and other talent. At the conclusion of the banquet, expres- sions of satisfaction and pleasure were heard on every hand, the general verdict being that this was the most profitable and enjoyable calesmen's convention ever held by the Pedlar People, Limited, WIND SAVES PALESTINE Jerusalem, Feb. 6.--A high wind saved Palestine from a devastating invasion of locusts. On Thursday great swarms were reported on the southeast border, travelling toward Palestine, The Government prompily mobilized its locust-fighting re- sources, in the shape of flame guns and personnel, which began to carry out defense methods, when suddenly a yiolent wind sprang up and swept the locusts back into the desert, where they are dying of starvation. The locusts were of the yellow-bel- lied variety, from the Sudan. Europe Next! a little patience on long side Corn be rewarded.

Bail was allowed. The sixteen men were arrested by six constables of the local force who raided a house on Bond street east on Sunday evening, January 29, about eleven o'clock. The original charges on. which they were arraigned were for fre- quenting a gambling house, and one of them was charged with keeping such a disorderly house. These charges were dismissed this morning, however, since the crown had little evidence to of- fer that the accused man was ac- tually keeping a gaming house. New charges of gambling on the Lord's day were then read to the sixteen men, and through their counsel, J. P. Mangan, they plead- ed not guilty. Evidence of the crown showed that four of the officers had gone into the place by the front door as two Chinamen were coming out and it was momentarily un- locked. As they entered a man in the outer anteroem shouted "police!" and when they got into the inner room everything was in confusion. A number of the men were seated around a table here. and one of them was seen to pick up a roll of bills from the table. The officers also testified that other men had heen playing a game in a third room. Evidence of the defence was not heard this morning. The men charged are Chong Boo, Willie Lee, Lee Young, Lee Hing. Fred Lee, Wong Sam, Rob- ert Lee, Alex Lee, Sim Bond, Fay Hong, Kan Chung, Lee Yet. How Lee, Billy Yung, Ray Wong and Lee Fean, READERS' VIEWS PRUNING OF TREES Editor, The Oshawa Daily Times, Dear Sir: An article appeared in this pa- per giving good advice on how to prune trees to improve their beau- ty. The trees on some of our streets badly need pruning, not only for appearance, but because they are over-lapping the streets in many places, causing broken glass in passing vehicles. Trees are out of place where they are close to street lamps, and block the light from the streets. Is it not a waste of money to pay for electrie- ity and get no henefit? The Mani- toba Maple will never make a nice ree; they are too bushy and strag- gly. The most inferior tree in the city is the poplar. Its roots choke sewer connections and make a lot of trouble in this respect. Side- walks are also damaged, as they are made bad to walk over in spring. Some municipalities have an ordinance against the planting of pcplars, The Norway maple makes a mag- nificent ornamental tree. In the spring it gives a lovely flower, which is very beautiful. In sum- mer, it is hard to beat as a shade tree. In autumn is leayes are va- riegated and made pleasant scen- ery. Yours truly, Two Citizens. SHELBURNE HORTICULTUR- ISTS MAKE PLANS FOR YEAR'S WORK Shelburne, Feb. 8--Sheclburne Horticultural Society had a most successful year, according to re- ports submitted at the annual meet- ing. There is a balance on hand of $7431 and a membership of 96. This year's plans are for work <n publi¢ grounds, and a row of trees will be planted on each side of the highway from the town limits to the cemetery. Officers were clected as follows: President, Mrs. R. W. Brett; First Vice-President, #irs. A, W. Tip- Jing; Second Vice-President, Dr. J. H. Zinn; Secretary-Treasurer, J.W. Hamilton; Directors, Mrs. A. Doug- las, Miss Fewster, Miss F. Ferns, Mrs. Rosevear, Mrs. J. KR. Bates, Dr. J. W. Mclean, C. E. Freeman, W. Murray, H. A, Livingstone, C. R. Davis; Delegates to convention, Mrs. R. W. Brett; Auditors, Char- les Mason and Victor Phillips. ACTION IS ADJOURNED Woodstock, Feb. 8.--Owing to the illness of two of the principal wit- nesses, the action of Robert Rennick of Winnipeg, against 'the estate of the late Clifford Kemp for $479.47 was today adjourned without a deci- sion being reached, and the hearing will be resumed on the next visit of Judge Boles of Simcoe, who afficiat- cd in the absence of Judge Wallace. sion Price Will Be War- ranted By a Greatly In- creased Attendance -- Strong Committees Ap- pointed for Each Exhibit The Directors of the South On- tario Agricultural Society, at a meecing in Welsh's Parlors Tues- day afternoon set the dates of the Fair, but the committees were and Thursday, September 11, 12, and 13, The decision was made to charge 25 cents admission to the grounds, instead of 35 cents. few years back, with a 10 cents admission fee for children. It is expected that the increased atten- dance at the Fair will make up more than the reduction so made. The reduction was made in re- sponse to a popular demand that 25 cents be the charge at the gate, A strong committee was ap- pointed for each of the exhibits at the Fair for Tuesday, Wednesday made smaller in membership so that there is very little duplicat- ing of membership in the com- mittees. It is felt in this way a great deal more efficiency will be obtained in managing the Fair, It was decided to offer slightly redyced purses for the races but to arrange a program which should give a good entertainment on both days. After the Directors' meeting the Attractions Committee ar- ranged to sell the Midway Privil- eges at an increased price over former years and also secure from the same people a contract for free attractions in frong of the Grand Stand. Practicaily all of the Directors were present and took a keen interest in the Meeting and all de- cided to put the Fair over in 1928 with enthusiasm, They feel that with the backing of the peo- ple the Fair can still be maintain- ed as one of the outstanding in- stitutions of Oshawa. Economy in management and efficiency in service were set out as the matto for the 1928 Fair. President J. 8. Kyle occupied the Chair, and Charles P. Davis, the Secretar yof the Board, acted as Secretary, I. M.C. A, WORKER 10 DEVELOP PLANS (Continued from page 1) of very great gzssistance in b- operating with other bodies such as the churches and other sccial service agencies, the idea being to supplement the work they are do- ing rather than to operate in com- petition with them. The National Council of the YV. M.C.A. and the local Board of Di- rectors are both fully seized with the importance and magnitude of the task with which they are faced. They realize particularly the necwes- sity of having the whole-liearted co-operation of every section of the community--municipal, educa- tional, religious, industrial, ete. Other Canadian cities and many cities on the other side of the line have built plants to meet similar needs to those of Oshawa, and are carrying on successfully, and it is felt that there is a real opportunity for a similar service in Oshawa if the co-operation of the community can be secured. In Ontario, St. Catharines, Kitchener, Brantford, and Windsor, are among vities that have splendid plants that are ren- dering a real service in their re- spective communities. Mr. E. D, Otter, who will remain in the City in co-operation with the local Board of Directors and officials, has had over twenty years' experience ip Y. M. C. A. work, ser- ving the organization in various capacities, such as Boys' Work Sec- retary, General Secretary, and for the past three years has been one of the Secretaries of the National Council staff, covering the whole Dominion in supervisory and ad- visory work. CLAIMS TRAGIC NAME Warsaw, Feb. 8--A woman claiming to be Anastasia, youngest daughter of the murdered Czar, has suddenly appeared in Polish Volhy- nia, and is finding a large follow- ing among Russian emigravis of this section. Her body is covered with scars, which, she claims, are frem wounds 1eceived when her family was slain at Ekaterinburg. The story of her escape from the Bolsheviki, however, is very sim- ilar to tales toi! by others claim- ing to be Anastasia. EASY WIN FOR COBALT Cobalt, Ont., Feb. 8.--Hailey- bury jumiors' chance of finishing second ip the central group of the N.O.H.A. was shattered last night when Cobalt, winners of the series, triumphed here nine to nothing. it was the second shutout for the locals in four days. The result of the game was never in doubt after Cobalt counted in ten seconds from the first face off. Murray and Fer- guson siaged a fist fight towards the end of the game and both were banished for the rest of the con- Oshawa Fair Dates for 1928 Fixed; Will Be Held On September 11,12, 13 Expect Reduction in Admis-} i PICKERING Pickering, Feb. 8.--Miss Hilda Robertson, of Toronto, spent the week-end with her sister, Miss Marjorie Roberson.

McLean, of Cleveland, Ohio, has been visiting her moths er, Mrs. Bedson, who has heen cons fined to her home through ill« ness. Dr. Field had a business trip to the e¢ity on Tuesday. Owing to the almost impassable conditions of the back roads, the Hatching Brothers found it neces- sary to postpone their sale of stock, which was to have taken place on Wednesday. afternoon. Miss Myra Cronk, of Toronto, spent the week-end at the home of her parents here. Little Miss Mary Sharpe had the misfortune to fracture her collar bone one day last week while at play. We are glad to report that she is progressing favorably. For the first time this season the school rink was open to the public an Monday evening, There | was no charge made, and quite a | number took advantage of the fice, which, although not in perfect cons dition, was good enough to pros vide a pl ant evening. The Women's Institute held a quilting at the home of Mrs. Jas, | Andrew on Monday afternoon, when the ladies finished a quitl be sent to a needy family in | Northern Ontario. They also col- {lected good second hand clothing i for the same purpose.

As a cons sequence the crank flew hack, hits ting: Mr. Shaw in the arm. Medi cal aid was immediately summon+ ed and it was found necessary to take the unfortunate man to the hospital for an x-ray examination, before setting the injured limb. The Women's Missionary Socls ety, of St. Paul's Church, held a quilting in the Sunday School room on Tuesday afternoon, The slippery conditions of the road on Wednesday made travel by car dangerous and many there wera which skidded into the diteh, an dauxiliary trucks were kept busy towing the disabled machines into the garages.
