Berries a Light Crop Owing to the severe winter killing off the bushes last winter the berry crop in this section, The Reformer is informed by one gardener, is going to be small. Some growers, it is said, will have only a few boxes to sell. ---- Two Wheels Came Off 0 While one of the wagons of the Dominion Express company was pro- ceeding west on King Street yester- day at noon the two front wheels sud- denly left the axle and the front of the truck dropped to the ground. No damage resulted. Visited Piano Factory Through the kindness of Rotarian H. P. Bull the members of the Osh- awa Rotary Club, following thelr regular weekly luncheon yesterday, were taken for a trip through the factory of the Williams Piano Com- pany. New Local Manager Mr. Percy R. Eagar has been ap- pointed manager of the Oshawa branch of the L. R. Steel Service Corporation in succession to Mr. F. Syms. The latter is not severing his connection with the organization but will still be actively engaged in the work. Mr. Eagar, previous to this appointment, has been a travelling representative. of the Corporation throughout Ontario. Post Office On Island The inability of the water drains in the vicinity of the Post Office to carry away all the water which fell in that district shortly before noon yesterday, resulted in the Oshawa Post Office going back to its fami- liar position of an island in the centre of Oshawa. Town Engineer Smith calls this the low pection of the town. When the rain ceased falling the drains were able, in time, to carry away all the water. Win at Amateurs' Contest Keen competition featured the Am- ateur theatrical contest held in the New Martin Theatre last Thursday night, in conjunction with the regular show, when four local people enter- tained the audience with their clever pieces in an endeavor to obtain the prizes. Mr. Ed. Simister, using a hand saw and a bow gave a short "musical" recital, practically all the notes being obtained by bending the saw. Mr. Frank Gough,who was awarded first prize, carried away the audience with a female impersona- tion while Miss Annie Nelson receiv- ed second prize for a dance. A whist- ling act by Mr. Robert Ball was well received. He was given third prize. Primary Department Picnicked One of the most pleasant events of the summer season this year, was the picnic for ihe members of the Prim- ary Department of the Baptist Church Sunday School, held at Lake- view Park on Saturday afternoon, when the children, with their moth- ers, enjoyed themselves to the ut- most...

Change in Office liours, Having moved to Oshawa Dr. D. B. Neeley's office hours have been changed. See notice in professional card column. Change takes effect July 19th. Dr. Neeley is specialising in ear, nose and throat diseases, also diseases of children, 46-c Rain Benefited Crops, Some slight damage was done to the crops by yesterday's rain, but the benefit resulting from the storm, far outweighs the damage done. Some grain was beaten down by the force of the rain while crops, which had been cut and were standing in the field, will have to be thrown down in order to dry before being drawn in, Rain Interfered With Picnic. Threatening weather interfered somewhat with the success of the picnic of the Mission Band of th« King street Methodist church, which was held at Lakeview Park yesterday afternoon. However, the spirits of those who did gather were in nowise dampened and an enjoyable time war realized by them. Start Oiling Roads. This afternoon will probably see the re-commencement of oil laying in Oshawa, as Town Engineer Smith's order for 8,000 gallons, re- cently placed in Montreal, arrived in Oshawa yesterday. The distributor arrived in town during Saturday night, having motored to Oshawa from Belleville. Passed Normal Exams, Among the successful candidates ot the examinations held in the On- tario Normal schools this year for Interim Second Class Public Schoo' teaching certificates, was Miss Claire E. Farewell, daughter of Mr. anc Mrs. George Farewell, Harmony. Miss Farewell's name was inadver- tently omitted from the list of suc- cessful candidates published last week in The Reformer. "Bought and Paid For", Ever increasing crowds are favor- ing the Milton-8t. Clair Stock Com- pany with their patronage at the New Martin Theatre, and the bill presented last night, "Bought and Paid For," attracted an appreciative house. A play based on the folly of marrying without love, it neverthe- less had a happy conclusion as the principals before the end were hap- pily united through the wiles of Cupid. To Get Some New Books There was no meeting of the Lib- rary Board held last inght, the regu- lar meeting night, as only two mem- bers, Col. J. F. Grierson and Dr. D. S. Hoig appeared at the Library. There were some accounts to be pas- sed and these will be dealt with in the immediate future. Miss Jones, the librarian, will draw up a list of some new chldren's books which are required and will also name certain books which will have to be replaced that are in a bad condition now, due to general wear and tear, ------_ Make Tile at Whitby. Farmers in Ontario coun'y are now using field tile, manufactured at Whitby, instead of having to de- pend on imported tiles. The Whitby Brick and Clay Products Company has been revived, under the manage- ment of W. Baines, formerly of Mimico. Permanent kilns are now being constructed, which will enable production throughout the year, and a daily output of 50 tons will short- ly be attained. More than fifty men will be employed by this industry, the activities of which are being watched with interest by the citizens. Sales Tax (Continued from page 1) Hamilton and in some other centres the retailers are selling the bottled goods at ten cents each, but some of the manufacturers point out that this may eventually ruin the business. Favor Tax on Syrup The Association to which Mr. Mar- tin belongs is at the present time en- deavoring to have this tax placed on the finished syrup and not on the bottled goods. Under the present system Mr. Martin doubts if he will make more than $500 income over and above his expenses. During the course of his remarks Mr. Martin asked why the manufacturers sueh as he should have to pay a tax of five cents a gallon on the product they manufacture in the bottle, while the men who mix the drinks at the soda fountains do not have to pay any such tax. Mr. Martin believes that they "manufactyre" in the same way as he does. Investigation at the local Customs and Excise office disclosed the fact however that the department makes a distinction be- tween "mixing" and "manufactur- ing" soft " Soda fountain dispensers under the new taxes are required to pay a tax of five per cent. on their total sales. Besides this all dispensers of soft drinks must have a license that costs two dollars. BORN BECKEL--In Ophawa Hospital on Saturday, July 15, to Mr. and Mrs. E. E.

Rundle by 101 majority. Figary got 222 votes and Rundle 121, Nominations will be held soon to fill the three vacancies on the Coun- cil. W. W. Crozier is likely to be the only old member to remain. This election is the aftermath of the charges made by Philip Figary against former Reeve Rundle, that he sold to the town electric light supplies. When this charge was made Reeve Rundle resigned his office and of- fered himself for re-election, stating that his dealings with the town did not result in any profit for himself and that all of the transactions were open and above board. Mr. Figary resigned from the Council to run against him. Mr. Rundle has lived in Port Perry nearly all his life, while Mr. Figary is a comparatively recent arrival, MARRIED MORPHY-NICHOLSON---At Whitby, July 14th, by Rev. F. H. Howard, Mr. J. A.

We have all been appointed to the place we occupy and the man who realizes that God has sent him will be successful," af- firmed Rev. E. W. Tink, B.A, B.D, during the course of his evening ser- mon in the King Street Methodist Church on Sunday. Mr, Tink was last stationed at Newtonville but is leaving shortly to accept a professor- ship in Chicago University, | The speaker took as his_text the words found in John 1-6, "There was a man sent from God, whose name was John," and in his sermon dealt with the life of this forerunner of Christ. Prefacing' his remarks with the statement that he knows of no literature so valuable and helpful to the world as the biography of a great man or woman, Rev. Mr. Tink described the Bible as a great bio- graphy of the lives of great people, stacing at the same time that nc book packs so much into a few words as the Bible does. -~Mrs. W.

This was followed by the address of Local Superintendent Elliott of the Children's Aid. Mr. Elliott said: | "Mr. Dyer's whole life was a tri- | umphant Christian experience.

Mr. | David Smith spoke most feelingly of | the work accomplished in the class, | and said that he had found Mr. Dyer| a man of many talents, and a man who had used those talents for the service of others while he always] gave God the glory. He had been a| marvellous artist and had used this| talent for the benefit and betterment | of Class Eirra, to a very great ex-| tent. Mrs. McMullen then spoke a| few words, saying that Mr. Dye* was | not only interested in the welfare of | the tlass but everything in Oshawa | that was for the furthering of God's Kingdom. Miss Harvey said, "Mr. Dyer was not only a help in his own class but he was a great inspiriation to me in the work in a girls' class. He once wrote for us a class hymn which I prize very highly." Mr. David Smith moved that the following letter be sent from the class to Mrs. Dyer: "Dear Mrs. Dyef,-- "Our hearts go out to you in deep- est sympathy in this hour of your great affliction. Time will lighten the deep shadow that darkens your spirits, though the sadness will nev- er pass entirely away. "May God sustain and comfort you, is the prayer of "CLASS EIRRA."

He brings the children to his home, to the disgust of his in- tended bride and to the delight of his private secretary. As the story de- velops, blind love is awakened with surprising results.

Profanity, he said, is said to be a sin peculiarly characteristic of the Canadian people and he was sorry to see it so, particularly the taking of the game of the Lord in vain. This, he pointed out, was to be found even among the young children of the present day, they having learned this sin from their elders. "I don't think that we could make a better prayer than the words of ihe psalm- ist when he said, 'Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength and my redeem- '" stated the speaker.

Stressing the originality of John the Baptist as being an outstanding characteristic of the man, Rev. Mr. Tink made a forcible plea for ori- ginality on the part of all, pointing out that God had made no two per- sons alike and that for the greatest success all should endeavour to be natural. John's fearlessness was a characteristic lauded by the speaker who maintained that a man who real- izes that he had been sent by God can be fearless, further adding thas when one realizes that he has a good, clean conscience and is on right terms with the Deity that he need not fear anything.

Baby Clinic (Continued from page 1) ganized this clinic has not yet failed to meet on the regular afternoon and it is interesting to note that the baby clinic recently formed in North Bay had secured much data regarding the successful work of this Oshawa organization, before the first clinic was held. The mothers who attend the English clinic, which is held ir the Albert Street Methodist Mission, every Tuesday, come from all parts of Oshawa. At some meetings the majority of mothers are from the dis trict bordering Simcoe Street, North, while at other times the north-west ward and Westmount are best re- presented. Last Tuesday there were 26 babies at this clinic. Milk For Older Kiddies At the celebration held at the non- English speaking clinic last week each walking child was given half a pint of milk to drink and of the children so treated, numbering about thirty, only one cuild refused fo drink. This little girl was six pounds underweight and although Miss Har- ris explained to her in simple terms that if she refused to drink milk during the time she is growing she will always be underweight, the child still refused the profferred milk. The young girls who assisted must necessarily have gained some valuable hints in household decorum which they will remember all their lives. Mrs. F. W. Cowan, who has just returned from Honolulu, is again taking an active interest in the work and with the continued back- ing of the Red Cross society ithe clinics are even more certain than ever of success in the work they are endeavoring to accomplish.

Howard performed the performed the ceremony. The speaker deplored the present | Copyright, 1y21, by McClure News paper Syndicate, (By Howard R. Garis.) Hopping through the woods one day, Uncle Wiggily reached a hole in the ground. It was not a very large hole--not big enough for him to have fallen in, so he was not afraid to go close to the edge. And as he was looking down and wondering who lived in such a small place--for he thought it was the home of some woodland creature-- the bunny gentleman heard voices coming up out of the hole, "Well, I'm sure I don't know what to do," said one voice. "If we had a lot of money it would be different. But when it comes to buying roller skates for a family of bugs, and each bug with six legs, that Is too much!" "Yes, I should say it was!" agréed another voice. "Let's sce, six times eighteen--."" 'Oh, please don't try to count!" begged the first voice. "I never did have a head for figures. All I know Is that I can't buy that many roller skates--three pairs to a bug--it's impossible!" And as Uncle Wiggily listened he heard some little voices crying: "Oh, please get us something!' "Bring me a drum!" "Bring me a jumping jack!" "I want roller skates!" Up out of the hole crawled a bug gentleman. He looked tired and anx fous, and as he saw Uncle Wiggily, the bug gentleman asked: "Did you hear 'em?" "Yes," answered e bunny. "Are they--"' "That's my family," went on Mr Bug. "I have eighteen hildeen, each one with six legs, and {ts hard enough to buy them shoes, to say nothing of roller skates. Have you any idea how much is six times eigh- teen, Uncle Wiggily?" "I make it one hundred and eight," answered the bunmy. "Well. I suppose you're right," sighed Mr. Bug. "But it's out of the question. I want to see the child- ren happy and having fun, especial- ly when it's Saturday and there's no school. But as for roller skates-- they might as well stop teasing!" he said. "No! No! I simply can't buy you all roller skates!" cried Mr. Bug as the eighteen little Bugs crawled out of the hole after him. They were 'boy and girl bugs, of different sizes and ages, and when they saw Uncle Wiggily talking to their poor, worried father the Bug children stopped crawling. 'Maybe Uncle Wiggily knows how we can have some fun, if daddy can't buy us roller skates!" said one boy bug. The bunny gentleman twinkled his pink nose. He wished he could do the poor things a favor. Then he happened to see, growing near by, a great, big toadstool. It was the largest one the bunny had ever seen. All at once he had an idea. "How would you like a whirligig?" he asked the Bug children. UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE WHIR- LIGIG - "What's a whirligig?" the eigh- teen of them asked. "It's like a merry-go-round." an- swered the bun "Here, I'll make you one of thif toadstool. You can have as much fun on it as it you had six roller skates each." "I'll help you," offered Mr. Bug, "Anything to amuse the children-- eighteen of 'em--count 'em if you don't belleve me," he sald to Mr, Longears. First Uncle Wiggily took a stick and pushed it through the top of the toadstool, and well down into the stem, making it fast in the earth. Then giving a whistle, Uncle Wiggily called Johnnie Bushytail one of the squirrel boys, down from a tall tree. "Johnnie," begged the bunny, 'gnaw loose the top of the toadstool from the stem, so it will turn." The squirrel boy did this, being careful not to swallow any of the pleces of toadstool, which was poison. But when he had gnawed the top loose, it turned around on the stem and the stick just like a merry-go- round. "There's your whirligig" cried Uncle Wiggily. "Hop on, now, and Johnnie and I will give you a start. After that you'll go for a long time. And if you tie a string to one edge of the whirligig, and run with it you can start it spinning any time you like," he told Mr. Bug." "I'll do 1t!" sald the father of the eighteen little bugs, Up on the toadstool whirligig the Bugs climbed. When they were all |scated, Uncle Wiggily and Johnnie gave it a push, and around and a- round it went, as nicely as you please. And for music a robbin sang in a tall tree, so it was just like a regular Coney Island merry-go-round. "I never can thank you enough, Uncle Wiggily," said Mr. Bug, when the little Bugs were having such a [fine time. "One hundred and eight {roller skates! It scares me to think lof it. But this whirligig is fine!" The little Bugs thought so, too, {and if the sugar cookie doesn't try to {hide in the milk bottle when the |lamp post is chasing the hoop around {the block, I'll tell you next about {Uncle Wiggily and the pitcher plants. TWO JAPANSB Boston Globe: There are two Ja- pans, just as there are two of every other nation. One is narrow and be- lieves .in hacking one's way with the sword. The other is broad and be- lieves in co-operation between nations, The problem for outsiders is always to hold out the right hand of fellow- ship to the liberals. The Washington Conference with its cordial attitude toward the yellow races, has in this short time helped to put the liberals into power. More of the same policy will keep them there, for the real source of the yellow peril is in white jingoes. The Philadelphia superintendent of schools says there are more than 8,000 illiterate persons in that city. It is now time for Boston to confess. --Cleveland Plain Dealer.
