WHITBY PEOPLE SLIP AND SLIDE ON ICY WALKS Viny (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, Jan. 18--In spite of the slippery condition of the streets mo accidents were reported in Whitby last night.

Even then the chances of skidding were great. Service From six o'clock to ten o'clock there was no bus service to Oshawa or Bowmanville and persons desir- ous of reaching either of these towns had to have recourse to taxis. Walks The sidewalks were also in bad condition on account of the ice and many persons sustained bad falls or had marrow escapes from falling.
