Mundy (Oshawa Daily Times) Death last week brought to a close a useful and beautiful life when Mrs, Charlégs M, Mundy passed away at her home, 408 Simcoe Street North; Although Mrs.. Mundy had been in ill health for the past year, she had séemed better recently and was out for a walk Sunday afternoon and on Mon- day was down town and called at The Times office where everyone remarked on how bright and cheerful she was at that time. The late Mrs. Mundy, whose maiden name was Kate Cline Adams, was born in Simcoe, Ont. 62 years ago, the daughter of Mr, and Mrs. Albert Adams, In 1906 she married Charles Melville' Mundy, and on June 6th, this year they celebrated in a quiet way their 38rd wedding anniversary. In unselfish devotion to her husband and family, as well as in service to her church and community, Mrs. Mundy gave full measure. She was a consis- tent and highly-respected worker in Simcoe Street United Church and for many years gave valued assistance to the choir as a member and soloist. She was also active in the Women's Asso- ciation of the church and in this con- nection she was frequently called upon to occupy a position of leadership for which she was exceptionally well qualified. She alsa possessed a re- markable talent as a reader and her ! "well chosen selections, as well as her musical abil- ity, resulted in numerous calls to assist #|on local programs and she always gave _ TO THE LADIES The Perfect Gift for HER McBRINE FITTED CASES A veritable home away from home.

George Drew, reported in "The Financial Post." "Let us not forget some of the in- cidents in the last war which show how easily Communist influences can oper- ate in the' very highest circles, There is, for example, the case of one Lev Davidocvich Bonstein better known to the world as Leon Trotsky. Trotsky was a Pole who changed his name after he had acquired a lengthy police record in Russia. He was ex- pelled from France during the war and came to the United States which he made a base for his revolutionary activities, ~ Through powerful influ- ences he obtained a confidential post in the British War Mission offices in New York, under Col. J. S, Dennis, of Can- ada. All the time he was preparing for the Russian revolution, working with his fellow conspirator, Lenin in Switzerland. The British secret' his activities and watchéd him. When the Kerensky revolution came in Rus- sia in 1917, he set sail from New York. The night before he sailed he address- ed a meeting of hand-picked Commun- ists in New York, telling them that eyery thing had been arranged tp seize power from Kereunsky, take Russia out of the war and set up a Balshevist government, Trotsky did not know it, but a hid- den dictograph in the room carried his speech tq Washington, whére it was typed. When Trotsky ip sailed, two British officers were aboard the vessel. ~The boat pit into Halifax Barbor. There Trotsky was arrested and interned. Then powerful friends work for him, They were able to ar- range for a formal request to be sent to Ottawa from British authorities asking for his, release. This was a blind. At the same time a secret and embassy in Washington, asking that he be not released under any circum- stances. A -copy of his New York address was forwarded to the Canad dian. Government. Prime Minister Borden decided that Trotsky would stay in Interment. Yet very cleverly, officials were induced to side-step the 'Prime Minister's orders. Trotsky was released and escaped to Russia, where he joined Lenin at the head of the Bolshevist revolution that came near to losing the war for the Allies, That happened in the midst of the Great War-of 1914-1918, when govern- ments and the public were supposedly on guard against every subversive in- fluence that might -weaken our war effort. 7 Today the "agents of Moscow are even more active here in Canada. To- day they have unlimited funds at their disposal. They work under cover. Sugh influences are dangerous, Col Drew is wise to foens our attention on 3| thé enemy behind the enéiity--Caim- | munism. -------- The Dramatic Club has finished its season, after giving "The Glow-Lights of San Rey" in eight communities. Mr. Bushell, director and treasurer, re- ports that the total proceeds were $69.00, with a net balance after ex- penses of $64.00.
