CHURCH Inspiring Programs Are Pre. sented By Sunday School Impressive services were held in Albert Street United Church Sun- day, it being the occasion of the un- nual Children's Day celebrations, Appropriate programs were pre- sented morning and evening before large congregations, The morning program was open- ed and, closed with a chorus by the student body. The other numbers were: recitation--*"A Wise Idea," Jack Burdge; recitation, "A Wel- come Piece," Bernice Wiggins; re- citation, "A Hearty Greeting," EI- sie Holmes; exercise, 'Large and Small," two boys; chorus, "This 1s Children's Day," Primary class; re- citation, "A Hero and a Helper," Lorne Gray; exercise, '"The Happi- est Folk," Primary class; recita- tion, "A 'Boy's Greeting," Elmer Lewis; song, "Praise Him," Prim. ary class; recitation, "First Appear- ance,"" Vivian - Gray; recitation, "Work for Boys," Bruce Gormley; recitation, "A Polite Hint," Helen Lee; chorus, "Song of Gladness," Miss Ayre's class of girls; reading, "Sympathy," John Reynolds; reci- tation, "The World Garden," Edith Barrow; recitation, "Johnny's Bringing Up," Gerald Gray; read- ing, "In His Name," Gertrude Smyth. The speaker of the morning, Mrs, Irvine of Cedardale United Church, then gave a splendid talk on tka Christian service of childhood of the children of the Bible and how the Anglo-Saxon child enjoys the greater privilege of having the Christian training in the home, The evening service was equally as interesting as the morning ser- vice and was well attended, The programe opened with a chorus by the school, followed by prayer, led by Rev. Mr. Whattam. The follow- ing numbers were then given: re- citation, Edith Barrow; reading, "In His Name," Gertrude Smyth; recitation, "My Garden is a Happy Plage," Edith Canning; "Through the Gateway of Service',, Mrs, Wil- liam"s clase; song, Donald Valen- tine; recitation, "Be Friendly," Lil- lian Williams; reading, "The Boy Who Did Not Pass," Winnie Grif- fin; pantomine, "What a Friend We Have In Jesus." Rev. R. A. Whattam addressed the congregation on the subject of "Fossils". He compared the pro- --cess of prints of mammoth animal feet or petrified fish and insects becoming hardened, and the way in which our own hearts can become petrified and hardened by sin or with greed and covetousness. The only way we may keep our hearts and minds tender and 'loving is by keeping ourselves humble as a lit- tle child "for of such is the king- dom of heaven." : A lawn social is being held In connection with Children's Day on Monday evening, June 18. A splendid program has been arrang- ed and refreshments may be ob- tained in the grounds of the chureh. Admission, twenty-five and fifteen cents, : LOOTING IN TIENTSIN HALTED BY FUTSO-YI Tientsin, June 17.--With the ar- rival here Friday of reinforcements of Shansi troops from Pekin, Gen- "eral Fu Tso-yi, the Southern De- fense Commissioner, was able to regain contro] from disbanded and looting Northern soldiers who for the last three days and nights had been causing a reign of terror in the native section of the city, fol- lowing its occupation by the South- erners a few days ago. Throughout last night the firing gradually subsided and after 10-0'- clock this morning all was quiet. But a large arsenal was blown up this morning near the railway sta- tion, causing confusion for several hours. It is estimated that 100 Chinese were killed. Communists are sus- pected of the outrage, but it is wore than likely to have been the work of disbanded Northerners as an act of vengeance. CONDITION FAVORABLE The condition of William Sowern, employee of the Reject Department at General Motors, who was seri- ously injured in an accident while at work last Saturday, was report- ed this afternoon as very favorable by hospital authorities. It is not vet determined whether or not the backbone has been broken. OSHAWA NOW HAS "UP-TO-DATE FIRE ALARM SYSTEM Placed in Operation on Sat- urday--Ready for Any Emergency With the installation of one of the the province, the system as placed in operation last Saturday in Oshawa now covers every block of the city and is ready for any emergency. Throughout the city, firc alarm boxes are placed so that anyone would only have to go two or three blocks to reach one of them, and in the cases of large industrial factories, the boxes are situated right at hand. The boxes placed in three of these fac- tories are not available for public use, being inside the premises, and in case of an emergency the tele- phone would have to be resorted to. The alarm boxes installed to datc are of three types, two of these be- ing practically identical in operation and appearance. The first and larg- est type and the most modern is the non-interfering Peerless Successive box, of which kind there are 13 in the city, The other type is the Sec- tor box. All the boxes have received a red coat gf paint and are placed so that the operation is comparatively casy, The boxes installed with their re- spective numbers are as follows: 2 Hillcroft and Simcoe streets; 3, Al- exander and Simcoe streets; 4, Lou- isa and Church streets; 5, Brock and Simcoe streets; 6, the Hospital; 7, Alice and Mary streets; 8, Division and Rosedale streets; 12, Elm and Albert "streets; 13, Centre street, Schoefield's Mill, (for general use); 14, Simcoe and Albert streets; 13, Albany and Prospect streets; 16, Mill and Oxfors streets; 17, Rowena and Conant street; 18, Bishop Bethune College; 21, Fittings Yard; 23, King and Simcoe streets; 24, Simcoe and Oak streets; 25, Division and King streets; 26, Ritson road and King street; 31, King and Centre streets; 32, King and Burk streets; 34, Burk and Gibb streets; 35 Front street, Phillips Factory, (for general usc); 41, Robson Leather Company, (for gegneral use); 42, Simcoe strect, Pedlat People Company, (for general use); 43, Bloor and Simcoe streets, Smith's Company; 45, Biloor and Howard strects; 46, Ritson road and Olive streets; 51, Athol and Charles streets, Chief Elliott stated to the Times today that there are a great number of people who really do not know how to handle a fire alarm box, and it is through this fact that a number of the alarms which should be sent in as quickly as possible, are delayed, On the strength of this, the Chief pointed out some of the most impor- Ltant details in the operations: of an alarm box. On the front of each box installed in Oshawa, there is a miniature house, which is closed in by a piece of glass on one type of box and hy a small door in the other type. In the case of the one with the glass, the latter should be broken and the key turned to onen the door, and in the other case, the door should be lifted, and the lever pushed down, In both cases the lever is present, and it is the pushing down of this which sends in the alarm. The noise and hum which follows the pushing down of the lever tells whether the alarm is going in or not, and it is pointed out that the public should listen for this when using the boxes. The most important = detail, the Chief stated, is that the person send- ing in the alarm wait until the fire- men arrive at the. box 'and direct them to the fire. This part of the work is essential, and it is often through the lack of judgment and clear thinking ability in this channel that many precious moments are lost, HAMILTON DRIVE IS NEAR OBJECTIVE Hamilton, June 17.--The total of contributions received in the Me- Master campaign up to Saturday night was said to be approximately $475,000, with good reason to be- lieve the objective of $500,000 would be achieved early this coms ing week.

Auditorium, Mary street, Satur- day afternoon, R. 8S. McLaughlin, president of General Motors of Canada," Limited, was presented with a large portrait of himself by J. D. Mooney, president of General Motors Export Company; on behalf of the executives of this company, The picture, which was beauti- fully executed and colored, showed Mr, McLaughlin at the wheel of his yacht, attired in typical sailor uniform. Together with the picture was a moment of a framed and artistically lettered inseription in remembrance of the yacht voyage from Oshawa to Toronte on June 9, 1927, when Mr. McLaughlin had as his guests a number of the same representatives of the export company who were present Satur- day to make the presentaion. The picture was the work of A. Lincoln Cooper, consulting artist of General Motors Corporation, In presenting the portrait to Mr, McLaughlin, Mr, Mooney referred to the intimate and cordial rela- tions which had existed between Oshawa head office of General Mo- tors of Canada, and the home offic- es of the Corporation in New York. These relations had heen more in- timate than those with any other of the other subsidiary companies of the Corporation, because of both inherent busimess reasons and per- gonal relationships. 'When we re- turn to Oshawa on our semi-an- nual trip, it is like coming back home," said Mr, Mooney. The framed inscription was pre- sented to Mr. McLaughlin by Ww. T. Whalen, vice-president and general manager of the export company, and then, as the curtain was drawn and the Union Jack removed from the painting, a spot light showed clearly a view of Mr, McLaughlin at the wheel of his yacht. Immedi- ately after the unveiling, a quar- tette composed of officials of the company sang "All the nice. girls love a Sailor." Mr. McLaughlin replied briefly, stating that he would treasure the painting for the thought which had prompted its gift, and in memory of the cordiality which was evident whenever the export officials visit- ed Oshawa. SPARKS THREE RING CIRCUS COMING Sparks Circus, enlarged in every department this season, and carrying eight hundred people, five hundred horses, 'and the largest collec- tion of trained wild animals in the world, is coming to Oshawa Wednes- day, June 27. The name of Sparks Circus is a household word throughout America. Among the outstanding features of Sparks Circus this season is the greatest Liberty Horse Act in the world--the famous Sparks Rotation Horses; sixteen in number. No show before the 'public today has finer groups of wild animals than those carried gy Sparks Circus this scason, The three herds of elephants in- clude a group of baby elephants, two of the herds being handled by ladies. Among the arenic stars are the famous bareback riders, the Hollis Riding Act, featuring Reno McCree, America's premier riding comedian; Miacahua, scusational wire artiste; the Alexander Troupe, the famous Mankichi Japs, Lorain Casteel and a score of other lady riders, The three score clowns are head- ed by Paul Wenzel, the man who has originated more laughable "walk- arounds" than any "joey" in the world, The closing feature is the mam- moth historical pageant, "Making of the Flag," written by Prof. DelVacho. Among the seven hundred human participants is a group of Sioux In- dians, permission for them to appear on tour with the Sparks Circus hav- ing been granted by the United Sta- tes Government. Today the Sparks Circus is the largest in the world, giving a street parade at 11 am. For the convenience of patrons seats may be secured Circus day at Karn's Drug Store at the same price Jas at the show grounds. EXCURSION TO THE FALLS WAS A MOST ENJOYABLE EVENT About 500 Join the Trip Under Auspices G. M. Dramatic Society The excursion to Niagara Falls on Saturday, which was sponsored by the General Motors Music and Dramatic Society, had, as far as the weather was concerned, a per- fect day for travelling. The tgain left Oshawa at two o'clock, there being thirteen coaches, and one of these a baggage car. 'The number of people this year was decicedly lower than last year, but the loss in numbers did not make the Ex- cursion a failure by any means, About five hundred enjoyed the trip. I} At Toronto four street cars took the passengers from the train to the boat, which was waiting. An im- mediate start across the lake was made. The surface of the lake was calm all the way over, so no one suf- fered from seasickness. The or- chestra on the boat added much to the enjoyment of the occasion, Those who liked to dance took ad- vantage of the nove] experience of dancing on board. Many of the people had taken their cameras along and were taking various ple- tures en route. The pangs of hunger caysed many to unpack their lunches and partake of a joyous lunch on all parts of the boat. Arriving at Port Dalhousie some of the passengers had the excite- ment of seeing artificial respira- tion being administered to an un- lucky swimmer. Street cars took all of the people from Port Dal- housie to Niagara Falls, On the way views of the great new Wel- land Canal were seen. The scenic heauty of the district was viewed to 'good advantage from the cars. As the destination was neared many who had not as yet seen the Falls were looking forward to the sight with eagerness, Their expectations were fulfilled. The American side attracted the excursionists also. Many went there, observing various things of inter- est, As the street car left at eleven o'clock, the time was limited, The illumination was the most Inces= esting feature of the whole day's program, The falls when bathed in the light of the illumination were at the best. The various colors gave tone to the falling water. Those who had seen the beautiful sight before were again thrilled. The trip back to the boat was devoid of excitement, The orchestras again furnished music on the return trip, and those who wanted to dance took posses- sion of the top deck and enjoyed themselves immensely, Dancing was the main feature of the trip back to Toronto. The floor was quite crowded most of the way across the lake. Arriving at Toronto, the Excur- sionists continue® the return jour. ney without incident, The trip was a fine sficcess and the Dramatic Society is deserving of much credit for its efforts to make the outing enjoyable to every one.

His wife, however, refused to do this, whereupon the Crown Attorney made a special plea for his terms. The agreement was finally made, Since Walker had no funds at the time the magistrate informed the court that the county of' On- tario would pay the costs, The defendant broke down completely at one interval of the case.
