BOARD PLANS FURTHER HOSPITAL DEVELOPMENT A fine projection of the Osh- awa General Hospital as the Hospital Board hopes it will look in time, was hung in a conspicuous place at the corner stone laying yesterday. The projection shows the two wings of the hospital, of which the new McLaughlin Maternity ad- dition is on the west, protrud- ing slightly forward from the original building, which has a storey added, bringing it on a level with the roofs of the wings, Cunairman Storey last night remarked that once the Mec- Laughlin addition had been finished that the Board would endeavor to find some means to have the original building made to correspond in height with the additions. The pro- jection shows the vision which the Board is entertaining and if ever realized Oshawa will have one of the finest hospitals in the province. LL Hospital Head MR. J. D.

Warden Rich- ardson stated that to-day Oshawa is, and as time goes on will be, the metropolis of this county. Such public institutions as hospitals must necessarily therefore centre in Osh- awa and the county, he assured his hearers, will always support requests for aid in connection with buildings such as this. He was pleased to be able to state that due to various amendments the County Council had been able to get passed to them ex- isting provincial laws, that there was now no further talk of Oshawa and the County separating and he trust- ed that it will never be mooted again. "Anyone who studies the question must see that the best interests of both town and county are served by co-operation," stated the warden. In conclusion he remarked that the hospital could always come to the County if it needed aid in the future as it is a community institution. the peace. bound over to keep the peace. never been fin trouble before, that Dalby be bound over to keep D.

Dalby had said. His Worship warned the com- plainant that it was unlawful to use such language as had been brought out in the evidence and that if he were ever brought before the cour! on such a charge, he would be dealt with severely. Col. Farewell stated that Bell's trouble seemed to a filthy tongue and what satisfaction there was in it he could not understand. It was liable to corrupt public mor- als and lead to breaches of the peace. His Worship added that there was no necessity of using language of that nature but pointed out to Dalby that he had been convicted of a ser- jous offense and he could not seek his own redress.

He prefers overalls to any other raiment and may decide to wear them in the halls of Congress. He is suspicious of society and hates a dress suit. He takes an unusual amount of pleasure in harpooning Wall Street. For the moment there is no particular question of his sin- cerety. It will be interesting to note his reactions when he discovers that a man can wear a plug hat and still be a Christian or can walk through Wall Street without losing his im- mortal soul.

The latter turned tc g0 on Bruce Street when the two cars collided with considerable force although neither car was travelling at a high rate of speed. The Olds- mobile seemingly caught the front end of the Chevrolet as the radiator of the smaller car was badly smashed as well as the front wheels. Whether or not the engine was seriously dam- aged could mot at the time be deter mined. The larger car sustained a badly bent fender while the shafts for ithe bumper were also bent. The Oldsmobile was not damaged to any extent but the Chevrolet was put completely out of commission. SO WE NOTICED Toronto Telegram --Just the same, Suzanne didn't kiss Molla.

DYER'S DEATH MOURNED BY ALL CLASSES Funeral Yesterday Attended By People From All Walks of Life MANY FLORAL TOKENS Took Great Interest in Religious Work, Particularly at Simcoe Church Citizens of Oshawa rapresenting practically every moral, religious and industrial institution paid last and fitting tribute to one of the town's most highly esteemed residents yes- terday when the funeral of Wm. E. Dyer took place, a public service be- ing held in Simcoe Street Methodist Church of which he was one of the most prominent and worthy members. The large gathering which assembled in the auditorium of the church testi- fied to the loving respect held for him, while the host of beautiful floral tributes was but another recognition of his true worth while on earth. Rev. J. H. McBain, pastor of the Simcoe Street Methodist Church, as- sisted by Rev J. 8. McMullen, pastor of South Oshawa Methodist Church conducted the service while Mr. H. Salmon presided at the organ. Mr. McBain in the course of a most im- pressive sermon said, "We are here to express our esteem of one dearly beloved. He was a good man and he will be greatly missed. He will be {greatly missed in the church. He took |a deep interest in all its activities, faithful in attendance and in all or- dinances of God's house. After the death of the late J. W. Ellis he was selected as Recording Steward, the highest office in the church." Mr. McBain recalled a statement made by the deceased at the beginning of his - sickness in which he said, "I must try and do more for the church." Mr. Dyer had plans which radiated in- fluence for the betterment of the com munity. His interests were not con- fined to Simcoe Street Church alone, Mr. McBain declared. He was former- ly associated with the olg Metcalf Street church and had found time to organize and teach Class Eirra in connection with the South Oshawa Mission. Will Be Greatly Missed "Why will he be greatly missed?" Charles Deline Allowed to Go on | Suspended Sentence-- Must Pay Costs Suspended sentenee was sentence on Charles ies' Dan with boots from pretenses, Guiltinan false intent to de fraud. of guilty, and in asking for leniency pointed out that accused was a man in poor health, having tubercular trouble. He had required boots and shoes and gone to Mr. Guiltinan from whom he obtained four pairs, promising to pay for same at a later date. Deline procured the boots and had foolishly given his mother's family name instead of his own. Then his client had become seriously ill for two or three days and when he re- turned to work found his job had been taken by some one else. In- stead of going back to Mr. Guiltinan he had gone to Trenton and his ar- rest followed. His parents were not in a position to help him financially and he could not pay the costs of the Court at the present time but could make restitution. Mr. Swanson suggested that the sentence passed be not a heavy one. Deline was willing to work and he could hardly go to jail because of his health. Just what was in the best interests of the public and the man himself was for the Court to decide. Col. Farewell suggested that accused make restitution and that he be remanded for sentence and in the meantime if the costs amounting to almost, $40 were paid, he could them be discharged. Magistrate Hind inquired if Deline had aay 'position available and on being assured that he had, he sus- pended sentence and placed accused on a recognizance of $500 to keep the peace and ordered him to report to Deline will be allowed one months in which to pay the costs.

Taking the Apostle Paul {as an example of the greatest man in ithe Christian era, who although la- {boring under adverse conditions be- {words, "I have fought the good fight, finished the course, I have {kept the faith." Mr McBain declared that it was because of his unconquer- able spirit. Paul had faced death with out a murmur and those words were valuable on such an occasion as this. So faithful in Stewardship that Paul anticipated what was coming, realiz- ing what was coming, realizing that death was not the end but the re- deeming of his soul for a fuller and better life. ""That inevitable is ap- proaching to each one of us and it would be well for us to anticipate it and be prepared for it," declared Mr. McBain. "With what emotion man must recall the past. If it has been frivolous, it must rise up in torment; if devoted to the ser- vice of God, then I believe we can look back and say, "I have fought the good fight." [I believe the words of the Apostle Paul can be applied to our dear brother Dyer whose death we mourn to-day. I feel that he has kept the faith." In closing Mr. Me- Bain recalled the last address he re- membered Mr. Dyer giving on what is meant by Christian Stewardship.
