Sharp Exchanges Feature Deb eT oh THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, JUNE 12, 1928 rt " a -- Instruct Architect to Sketch Plans of Technical School Consider Addition to Colleg-TMAYOR PRESTON SEES iste Institute to Be Used The Oshawa Board of Education iast night instructed OC. C. Sten- house, architect, to prepare sketch plans of the proposed addition to the Coliegiate Institute, to be used for technical school purposes. The Board 1s making an immediate up- plication to the Minister of Edu- cation of Ontario for the establish- ment of a technical school in Osh- AWa, pursuant to the report of the Advisory Vocational Committee, which was adopted. DP, A. Campbell, Toronto, Direc- tor of Technical Education for the provinge, addressed the Board on invitation of the Advisory Voca- tional Committee, outlining the work that the technical school should accomplish and the steps that the Board should take to es- tablish a technical school here, un account of the. industrial nature of the eity, Mr, Campbell stated that such a school should he a sue- cess here, and added that he would place Oshawa with Kitchenér and Brantford as the three best smaller cities for Industrial education work, Last year had seen the greatest expansion in this form of eduva- tion that Ontario has experienced, said Mr, Campbell. Belleville, re- terboro, Welland, Pt. Arthur, Tim- mins, Toronto and other places had all established technical schools, and when Stratford, Kingston and Oshawa follow suit all Oftario el- ties will contain such an institu. tion, The Department of Education does not urge Boards of Educa- tion to undertake the establish- ment of such schools, in view of the recent deci<ion of the T'ederal Government in regard to 1. ats for technical education, but On- tario is still allowing the same grant for this work, furnishing it- self the amount that the Federal Jovernment had formerly allowed, The Provincial Government win pay to the Board, 50 per cent. of the cost of new buidings and equipment needed for the techni- cal school addition, approved Ly the Department. Mr. Campbell stated, and added that he was pre- pared to recommend to the Minis- ter that he give favorable consid- eration to the establishment of a technical school in Oshawa, Under the Vocational Education Act, the Advisory Vocational Comprittee of4 the locat Board will pass upon plans for the building, these will then be presented to the Board, and, when satisfactory, referred to the Department at Toronto for ap- proval, The final plans will be passed on to the Minister of ¥du- cation, who will authorize Lhe pay- ing of the grant, This is paid in annual installments, as half of the amount due on the debentures. Be- sides the 50 per cent, on buua- ing and equipment used for voca- tional purposes only, the Depart- ment also pays up to 25 per cent. on the cost of new gympasium or other accomodation used by the technical school pupils in common with the academic pupils. Mr. Campbell mentioped the sur- vey of Oshawa made in 1921, when a technical school was recommrend- ed, and stated that, by the Board of Education mot proceeding with the project at that time, they lost a grant whieh they might have re- ceived in providing accomodation for the Commercial Department at the Collegiate. It is expected that the technical school will be boilt as an addition to the present Collegiate building, and that it wil be three stories high and the size of 22 standard class rooms. Provision will be made to train boys in woodworking, mach- ine shop practice, ete, and the girls in domestic science, sewing, etc., as well as continuing com- mercial subjects. Mr. Campbell particularly urged the Board to make every effort possible to pre- pare students to enter industries already located in this city, and that they get in toueh with heads of the larger industries in Oshawa, with a view to ascer- taining what vocational training work would best train boys for positions in their particular fac- tories. The 4 ber of boys who trance ©: phir 16, do not attend high school, came up during the discus- sion. School attendance officer A. L. W. Smith stated that at pres- ent, 72 boys and 29 girls are out on certificates, and Trustee Dr. Donevan remarked that there were many more out that had no centifi- cates. It was felt that, if a tech- nical school were established, both these boys and their parents would be pleased at the opportunity for education along practical lines, and that there would be no difficulty $n having them remain in school uestion of 2 jJarge num- have passed the and, while PROGRESS IN MINING AREA KIRKLAND LAKE The Kirkland Lake mining area drew Mayor Preston's attention last week and he returns to Osha- wa with the opinion that this area is going ahead every day. He vis- ited several producing mines, and also made a survey of several pro- ducing mines, and also made a survey of several properties now being developed, Keen interest is being shown in the mining coun- try this Spring, and the Kirkland Lake field seems to be getting its share despite the interest being shown in Manitoba mines, com- ments Mr. Preston, PREPARE PROGRAM OF SERVICE FORUM Motor Industry Seeks Better Repair Methods -- To Be Held in Toronto Announcing the complete pro- gram for the Service Managers' Forum of the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce to be held at the King Edward Hotel, Toronto, June 18¢19, Charles D, Hastings, Chairman, characterized it as 'one of the mest' practical ever prepared.' "So great has been the interest created by the first announcement of this meeting," says Mr, Hast- ings, "that registrations are being received at a rate to indicate a record attendance. This is well ex- plained by the fact that a large part of the program is made up of papers all aimed at 8 most im- portant objective--helping deal- ers to give more satisfactory ser- vice and to get more profit--than which there is perhaps no more vital problem ccafronting factories and dealers today, "The program also includes con- sideration of two newer or less developed fields-- export service and bus maintenance, both of which are receiving increasing at- | tention by the factories."

This will be the first time that the Forum has been held in Can- ada and the friends across the border who brought it about, feel- ing that the occasion merited high official recognition, have obtained a promise from the Honorable George S$. Henry, Minister of Pub- lic Works and Highways, to be present in person and welcome the Gelegates at the opening session. of the Hupp Motor Car Company, will preside as chairman of the Automobile Cham- ber Service Committee which was responsible for the program.

Harris, communicable diseases reported for the month of May are: Mumps 63; Chickenpox, 27; Scarlet Fever, 13; Diphtheria, 4--3 deaths; Whooping Cough, 4; German Measles, 2--1 death; Diphtheria "Carrier," 2; Cerebro Spinal Meningitis, 1-1 death; Measles, 1; Small Pox, 1; Erysipelas, 1 The report in part says: "Conta- gion last month was decreased in the diseases which had been mest pre- valent for the past five months, but we have been most unforfunate in having a slight outbreak of Diph- theria--4 cases with disastrous re- sults of 3 deaths. These cases have been all pre-school age c¢hildren. This brings forcibly to our minds the great necessity of securing Diph- theria Immunization for all pre-school children, as well as children of school age. It is with confidence that we point to the protective measures used in the schools against this disease. In this connection 655 pupils have re- ceived three doses. of Diphtheria Toxoid during May, in the three schools. The pupils of the other schools have been immunized earlier in the year, thus safe-guarding our student body against any out-break at the present. "Scarlet Fever has raised some. cause for alarm, not in the number reported, but the adults effected in homes where it has been impossible to care for same; a number of cases in already over-ecrowding rooming and boarding houses. Through cour- tesy of Toronto Isolation Hospital, we have been ensured care for five of our cases, It is impossible to state the time involved in making such ar- rangements, and also the time of the Nurse spent in transporting these cases to Toronto, (Saturday after- noons or evenings, as occasion has demanded). Appeal for some con- sideration of isolation, within our own district, would be quite in order, "The Clinic service has heen un- usually well received by 375 babies, accompanied by the parent. "One hundred and thirty-three prenatal cases are under supervision. "Tuberculosis reports have heen received from the Provincial Chest Clinic, and 'this hds involved con- siderable more work, following the suggestions made regarding Active and Suspect Cases. 12 new cases, Active, have heen reported to us this month, bringing up the total to 63 Active Tuberculosis under supervision 3 of whom have been taken to Wes- ton or Gravenhurst Sanitarium. 39 Suspect cases arc also under super- vision, "The report of Dr. Brink's Clinic is as follows: --Total number cases examined 133; re-examinations 43; new cases active tuberculosis 11; new cases suspicious tuberculosis 9; new cases positive tuberculin test 9; cases previously examined: ' new active tuberculosis 2; positive tuberculin test 4; suspicious tuberculosis 2. "One hundred and two medical ex- aminations last month have complet. ed the designated Medical work for the year, in the Primary Grades and Junior Fourth. This has been out- lined and required by the Provincial Department of Health. A total of 1406 pupils have been completed, "The reports of the schools for the month :(--Number of visits to schools 103; children inspected 3763; re-ad- Wissiops 62; treatments 131; rediculi ALBERT ST, SCHOOL HAD HIGH AVERAGE IN ATTENDANCE The report of school attendance officer A, L. W. Smith, presented to the Board of Education at their meeting last night, states that, dur- ing May, employment certiificiates were granted to four boys apd to ope girl, Home permits were also granted to two boys and ope girl. Mr. Smith further states that 194 pupils were reported to bim for non-attendance during the month, and that the cases were investigat- ed. Albert street school again leads with the highest average attend- ance, according to the report of supervising principal, C. F. Cannon. This school had an average attend- ance during May of 95 per cent., while the avemage for all of the public schools in the city was 92.6 per cent. The report of Principal A. E. O'Neill of the Collegiate In- stitute, shows that the average at- tendance im this institution for tne month was about 92 per cent. C. N. B.

The bricklayers have prac- tically completed their work on the foundation which rises from the bot- tom of the excavation to the level of the ground. This foundation is the last word in efficiency and the dur- ability is only strengthened by the addition of the steel work. By the first of next wegk the hotel construction will be in readiness for the column bases which weigh in the neighborhood of 400 to 500 pounds each. The monster derrick will be placed in position and the third part of Oshawa's new hotel will be well under way. Steel columns and first floor beams are expected to arrive in this city during the latter part of next week, and the steel work on the "hotel will be rushed along. In this connection, an official of the company which 1s erecting the building, went to Pitts- burgh, where he ordered his steel stock, and as a result there will be no delay in the steel reaching this city, A number of men have been taken on during the week to rush the work on the foundations, and it is expect ed that within the next two weeks when work on the steel does com- mence, that a number of extra men will be added. As a finished hotel, Oshawa's cha- teau will take on the appearance of an up-to-date business establishment, It will comprise six stories, with two elevators. There is to be a: large lobby, a monster banquet hall, seat- ing well over 200 persons, a men's card room and ladies' lounging room, men's smoking 'rooms and every de- sirable need for those who remain as guests, It was said that at the rear of the building, on Mary street, there will be a bus station terminal. The waiting room is to be situated in the last apartment in the ground floor of the building and sufficient space will be available off Mary street and yet on the hotel property to accom- modate the buses, which will be out of the road of traffic, and still pro vide convenient changing terminals, POLIGE SEEKING FARMER'S SLAYER Brother of Dead Glengarry Man Missing--DBelieyed Hiding in Swamp Cornwall, June 11,--The pall of tragedy today hung over the quiet hamlet of St. Raphael, in the hills of Glengarry, as a result of the murder of Albert Laflamme, shot down as he crossed his farmyard yesterday morning. Raoul Laflamme, brother of the victim, has heen missing from his home since yesterday, and neigh- bors are aiding Provincial Police in an extensive search for the man who is being sought for guestion- ing. The hunt is proving difficult, as the countryside is thickly over grown with underbrush, and nume- rous stretches of woodland afford ample protection. Tells of Court Suit The 75-year-old father of the two men. is overcome by grief, as are also the other members of the La- flamme household. The aged man, interviewed today, said that a year ago he and his son Albert had been defendants in a court action brought by Raoul. Since then, he said, Raoul had barbored a griev- ance against them, believing tne outcome of the suit unfair. So deeply had Raoul felt this, the ra- ther said, that the rest of the fam- ily had entertained doubts as to his soundness of mind. , Where Slayer Hid. Unobserved until today, there is in the barn loft, facing the home, an opening about a foot square, and to this the father pointed indicat- ing that the fatal shot had come from there. This is borne out by the post-mortem examination, which showed that the bullet enter- ed the side of the neck and took a downward course, coming out at the left shoulder. Tomorrow morping the remains of Albert Laflamme will be inter. Echoes of Investigation Into School Affairs Here Heard as Chaifman Mitchell De clares Board's Business Will Be Transacted in a Business-like Manner -- Will Call for Tenders for Four Room Addition to the Ritson Road Public Scheol After a lively bit of dialogue in which Trustee T. B. Mitekell, Chairman of the Board, Trustee @. Norris, chairman of the prop- erty commntee, and J. A. M¢Gib- bon, secretary of the Board, were the principal actors. Tha Hoard cf Education last night authorized the property committee ta call for tenders for the four-room addi- tion to Ritson road public school. The UYoard meeting was calm and peaceful as al' good Board of "Bducation meetings should be, un- til Trustee Norris presented the repost of his comfhitte, which in- cluded the i1ecommendation "that the plans as prepared for the ad- dition to Ritson road school be approved." He hastened to add, for the enlightenment of the mem- bers, that his committee had, on their instruction, been proceeding with prerarations for the addition as rapidly as possible, and haa prepared an advertisement for tenders on the building. Chair- man Mitchell had, however. inter- fered on the ground that the com- mittee had no right to eall fof tenders, and the advertisement had been cancelled. Jumping to his feet, Chairman Mitchell declared that the Board had never given any authority to the property committee to call for tenders. Although the motion had empowered them to 'take the necessary steps" they had no as- surance that the Board was satis- fied with the plans as they were prepared. 'I never saw such jug- gling of a question," he continued. "The Board doesn't even know yet that they want to spend $40,000 of the people's money for this ad- dition. As far as I am concerned the business of this hoard is go- ing to be transacted in a business- like manner." | ' The rgport of the property com- mittee was then adopted without amendment, but Trustee Norris had a motion that *the property committee be authorized to ad- vertise for tenders to construct the addition to the Ritson road school," under the name of the secretary of the Board. "That's all right, but you won't receive. any tenders anyway. Con- tractors won't bid on Oshawa school jobs." commented Mr, Mit» chell,' Secretary J. A, McGibbon in- terposed that he was willing to step aside if there was any reflec- tion on him. "If' the chairman has any charges to make, let him go ahead; let him advertise for the tenders over his ' own name. He has made an insinuation, let him back it up," declared the sec- retary. Trustee Smith thought that the whole trouble had arisen be- cause of remarks of irre- sponsible persons, who, be- cause they had the habit them- selves of using the steam from #4 teakettle to open mail that came 'to their home thought that the secretary of the Board had an opportunity to see tenders address- ed to him before anyone else did. They -had no idea that the tenders. were securely sealed, and were not opened uns til the seal was broken in the presence of the committee, who considered all the tendefs at one time. He was satisfied that the misapprehension was because of the Board's procedure. Trustee Drew said that it was the usual procedure, to send tenm- ders to the secretary of the Board apd he saw no reflection on him. Chairman Mitchell remarked that he had every confidence in the secretary, but "he had been mixed up in the trouble before and certain contractors had said that they would not tender on school work on that acount." Mr. McGibbon demanded to know what trouble he had been mixed up in. He had merely as- red in the cemetery at St. Raphael, and on Wednesday an fnguest will be held to learn everything possi- ble about the murder. ARE RECOVERING Mrs. Albert Clarke, Miss Ethel Carter and Edith Lowe, who were seriously, injured in an auto acci- dent near Courtice last Saturday, and later rushed to Bowmanville Hospital, were said to be much improved today by hospital au] thorities. Miss Ethel Carter was able to leave for her home in Peterhoro yesterday. Mrs. Clarke and Edith Lowe will be confined, however, until the end of the week. First Burglar: Did you have any luck in that house? Second Burglar: You bet! I found a packet of love letters and I" copy them aud send them to my sisted in the investigation, Chairman Mitchell admitted that it- was the investigation that he bad been "mixed up in" and the discussion calming down, Trustee Norris' motion carried, with the amendment that tenders be called "for the "Board of Ldu- cation, under the name of J. A. McGibbon, secretary." The working plans of the ad- dition to Ritson Road school, which were tabled last night, are essentially the same as the sketch plans adopted by the Board at the May meeting. According to the plans, which were prepare by Mr. C. C. Stenhouse, the addi- tion will be built on to the north end of the Ritsop road school building, which contains} eight class rooms. The addition wil be about 38 by 60 feet in size and two storeys in height. There will be two class rooms on each floor with the two play reoms in the basement semi-finished, so that they can be turned into class SAGE THRER Extension Board Chairman, Trustee Norris, Secretary J. A. McGibbon Cross Swords will match the presemt structure in every way. Walls will be of brick and tile, with steel reinfore- ing, on a concrete block founda- tion with asphalt and gravel roof.
