Scrat: Mal? entin of Trophies: FIRE DESTROYS "FRAME HOUSE ON ANNIS STREET Loss Estimated at $500 as Home of Donul Artyn is Gutted Fire which completely gutted the one-storey frame house belong¥ tng to Daniel Artyn, 236 Anais street, caused damage estimated close to. $500, The house had been moved about two months. ago te its present position at the south end of Annis street by the owner, and was having its foundation put in when the fire occurred. The fire department received a call about 11.30 o'clock, and got to the scene of the fire with diffi culty, the roads leading to that vicinity being in a bad state of re- pair, The flames had a firm hold on the building when they arrived and only the promptness of the: department saved the house from being a total loss, Fire Chief Elliott said the fire whs causéd from a defective chim- ney, the flames working their way 'down to the woodwork behind the stove, No insurance was carried on the building or its contents, Firemgn were successful in sav- ing from the burning house a num- ber of household articles as well as two trunks, In one of the lat- ter, however, the flames and wat- er had done considerable damage, A 'quantity of vegetables in the - house also made conditions bad for the firemen to 'work under, they having been strewn over the entire place when the fire broke out, THIEVES ENTER THE PUBLIC LIBRARY SECURE MONEY Entrance is Made Through Basement Window Which Was Left Unlocked Thieves broke into the Oshawa Public Library last night and stole ahout two dollars in silver, They gained access to , the building through a basement window, which had not been locked the night pre- vious, The money reposed in a drawer on the main floor behind the counter, Two checks for con- siderable amounts were untouched as well as the loose change, a fact which points to the theft being committed by young boys, The window through which en- trance was made is on the rear side of the building, facing west, and 1t is quite an easy matter for anyone to crawl into the basement through this opening, if the window is un- locked, A number of other windows in the basement the children's de- partment, were also found unlock- ed, The door leading from this lower library to the main reading and reference room was unlocked which made the course of the thief or thieves an easy one, Once in the main room the matter of steal. g the money, which amounted to ittle more than piltering, is ap- parent, Exit. was made through the door leading from the base- ment, the. latch having been found unlocked this morning, It was stated that this door had been locked securely last night, Detee- tive Sergeant Norman McGee is in- vestigating the theft.

Oct. against Theodore Holsk, of Osh- awa, charged with driving & nrotor vehicle while under. the influence of liquor, was dismissed by Magis- trate Willis. yesterday because of insufficient evidence, Chief Gun- son, who srrested Hoisak on Sun- day night after his car, contain- ing four others besides himself, had upset in the ditch on the Kingston highway _ near Lick's hill, could not state whether he was incompe tent to drive or not. He suspected that he bad been drinking but his condition may have been due to shock. Holsk claimed that he was not intoxicated. When the accident oe- curred he stated that he was badly shaken up snd was also excited be- cause after his car had upset he missed 2 sum of money amounting to $200. This was later found and restored to him. 31. ~The | CITY NEWS RUGBY TEAM IN ACTION shown at the Regent Theatre to- night.

Appreciation "The Flight of the Duchess" by Browning was read and discussed hy the Dean last night, This selection was made more interesting by Dean McLay's explanations and comments as he went along, At the conclusion of his lecture all present were con- vinced that the people of Oshawa had the privilege this year of listen- ing to the lectures by one of the hest teachers in Ontario.

Tomorrow we come to dark and drear November and the last day of the so-called pleasant autumn season might well be celebrated as joyously as possible, Just to make Hallowe'en more Dloasant and November first less isagreeable, The Weatherman takes pleasure in announcing that it will he slightly warmer -- not much change in temperature, but enough to show a marked differ ence from tht last few nights, Hallowe'en is an old Roman custom, which was celebrated on November firat in honor of Pom. ona, the goddess of fruit trees, In Britain the Druids celebrated Hal- lowe'en in homor of the Sun God and a thanksgiving for the harvest, When the people became chris tianized the early church fathers wisely allowed the custom to cone tinue, but gave it a new assocla~ tion in commemoration of depart ed souls, Thus the eve of the festival was called All Hallowe'en, the name coming down' to us from the old English word "halwe" aor, as we now say, holy, : Many beliefs have come through 'he ages associated with this feast and one of these is that on this one night of the year the spirits of the departed are allowed to visit their old homes. In some plates, even to this day, food is plated out for the wander ing souls, hearths carefully swept, and chairs carefully set in order before the household departs for bed. ' Many of the old beliefs, or sup- erstitions, came to us with the old Puritan Fathers, thost ancestors to whom the name of God wag the name of a person all powerful and avenging, and to be feared rather than loved, the lover of mankind and the little children, Though the world is fast getting away from the fear of God apd is clinging closer to the love of God, the Hallowe'en customs and pranks are allowed to remain in the spire it of jollity and fun. So tonight Oshawans will give themselves up to pranks and the city will he resplendent with leer- Ing "punkin" faces, masked ban- dits, old witches, hob-goblins and what-nots, gates wii be lifted from their moorings and hung athwart trees and fences, and ap- ples will be robbed and spirits will roam ahout in clothes of divers style and repair, .

Brown, who went to a neighbor's home to obtain a pall of water on Sunday has not been seen or heard of since. The parents, thinking he had gone to Solina or other points near Osh- awa, communicated with friends there, but could get mo informa- tion as to the lad's whereabouts. It was ascertained that Franels Cunningham, aged 17, of Solina, who had been working in the vies inity of the Brown home, and was acquainted with the family, had disappeared at the same time as Norman Brown, and has not been seen since that time, . A Mystery Relatives and friends in the eastern part of the county have all heen communicated with, but to no avail and the disappearance of the lads still remains a mystery. When last seen Norman was wearing - grey trousers, a grey windbreaker, and plaid stockings. He has fair hair, is of medium build and five feet tall. While the parents of Norman Brown attach no blame to anyone, they helieve he appearance of Cunningham had something to do with the dis- appearance of their boy, the latter never having run away from home before, NINE JOHN SHITHS INOSHAWA, SAYS THE POSTHASTER Official Urges Care in Ad- dressing Letters, in Order to Avoid Delay "John Blank, Esquire, Oshawa Such is. the address which adorns many letters received at the local post office, that causes much loss of time at the postal headquarters not only here but in Ottawa, "Citizens should watch their addresses when sending" a letter," said F, T, Mathi- son, postmaster, today. "People da not realize the trouble that a wrong- ly addressed letter causes. It is taken out on a route and delivered to someone with the same name, but nine times out of ten, that person is not gorrect recipient, There are nint persons in Oshawa whose name is John Smith, and a letter coming to Oshawa with name "John Smith, Es. quire, Oshawa "would have a slim chance of reaching its destination. those letters which are not taken to the correct address are sent back to the dead letter office where they re- main until claimed, which, in some Me library it will cost the ner | Instances, never happens, three | Urges Case "Then there is the matter of a re- turn address on the letter" stated Mr, Mathison.

The postmaster urged citizens: to acquaint themselves with all the pro- per forms of addressing and sending parcels and letters, During the Christmas rush the amount of mail handled through the local post-office is enormous, as it is everywhere else, and a wrongly addressed or illegibly written envelope delays the transportation of the letter besides holding up a certain amount of work at the post-office itself, FIRST WOMAN TO PASS AS PRIVATE AIR PILOT Ottawa, Oct. 31.--The honor of having the first woman private pilot to graduate from the ranks of the flying clubs * in Canada went to Winnipeg, whose first lady mem- ber, Miss Eileen Magill, was passed upon this morning by the civil av- iation branch of the Department of National Defence, Miss Magill has been an enthus- fastic student since the beginning of operations by the Winnipes Flying Club, and has shown a nat- of Police Owen D, |ural aptitude in piloting the club's "moth" 'planes, TOO LATE T0 CLASSIFY FOR RENT -- THREE ROOMS suitable for light housekeeping.
