Hahn, The purpose of this class is to inform the members of the principles of religion as held by the Lutheran church, with the ultimate goal of admitting the members of the class fnto full membership of the Luther- an Church. By way of introduction the pas- tor called the attention of the mem- bers to fact, that the Small Cate- chism of Luther, which is to be used as an outline for the course, is exactly 400 years old this year, and that the history of the Luther- an Church attests to the immense insipirational value of the booklet. "Incidentally" said Pastor Hahn, "this booklet is also the first book to be translated into the language of the American Indian. In the 17th century John Campanius, a Luth- eran missionary from Sweden, translated the Small Catechism of Luther into the language of the Deleware Indians, and for that rea- son we look with pride upon our Catechism as the 'First Book of the Red Man' ", Rev. Hahn pointed out to the class, that the Lutheran Church is the church of the Reformation, the first Protestant Church, and to-day it is considered the most conserva- tive and fundamental Chureh body.

The boy sat beside his aunt, Mrs, Rebecca Levine, of Whithy, during the proceedings, and he em- phatically refused to go out with his father when the hearing was over. Mrs. Levine was ordered by Justice Logie to leave the court and the boy and warned her that she might get into trouble, L. Hyman, of Oshawa, acted for Mrs, Levine in the case. Refusing to move, and crying the while as his father pulled at his arm, the court ordered everyone to leave him alone for a while, His sobbing,' however, interfered with the business of the court and the judge ordered the lad's removal. D'Arcy Minds, the registrar, Mr, Walker, the court usher, and I Levinter, counsel for the father, all had to assist in this movement, during which the boy's cries were most strident, The. lad had to be forcibly remov- ed from the building. Boy's Mother Dead Victor Appel had applied for the custody of his son under a writ of habeas corpus. When the lad's mother died, Mrs, Rebecca Levine of Whitby, took care and custody of the child: Last fall Victor Appel married again and took his son to his new home. In the Christmas holidays, on Mrs, Levine's request, the boy was allowed to visit her home, but was not 'allowed to re- turn to his father's home, L. Hyman, counsel for the aunt, stated that the boy did not want to go to his father's home as his step- mother beats him. J J "Probably he needs a beating," said his lordship. "It would be a happier state of affairs in later life if more boys were beaten now. He does not look badly. It is time he learned that he has to do what he is told. It's a good strapping he needs if he talks like that." Mr. Hyman: "It is not a proper home." . Justice Logie: "The father is en- titled to his child and the respon- dents will pay the costs." § Lawyer Persistent Mr, Hyman pleaded that costs should not be awarded against him and persisted in his plea to such an extent that Justice Logie asked counsel if he wanted to be removed from the court. "No," said Mr. Hyman. Justice Logie: "Then you pay the costs." Here the aunt and the boy to cry. started to speak His lordship warned her that she was endanger-| of tha; ing herself as the court could not be intimidated. - "They have put the boy against his father pretty badly," said his lordship. . Out in the corridar, I Levinter en- deavored to appease the boy with ises of a toboggan and skates, etc, and in the end he was got to accompany his father. / father denies the allegations made against his home and the treatment of his son. The boy is insured for his'own benefit. He has a mice, clean, sunny room to sleep in, and only a few months ago the father bought him a $45 bicycle.

Editor, Oshawa Times, Dear Sir: ' There has been considerable comment of late anent the icy side- walks in this city, and tonight on your editorial page it is claimed that to make effective sanding of all the walks, would be a tremen- dous and expensive drain on civic funds. Fifty yards of sand can be bought for one hundred dollars, another hundred would pay the labor of scattering it thickly on at least the principal streets. Thus the civic fa'hers would have "squandered" the vast sum of two hundred dollars of the public's money for public safety. It can be readily understood that to keep all the walks sanded all the time would be expensive, but conditions ' as they are now, do not prevail all the time, luckily for some of us, else we would be compelled to spend the winter months indoors. Existing conditions are a real menace to even the most sure- footed and agile and the small amount of sand sprinkled on King St. East might better have been left in the gravel pit.

McIndless MORE ABOUT ICY SIDEWALKS To Editor Oshawa Daily Times Dear Sir: , If it is true that the wicked stand in slippery places, it is a compliment to our citizens that few have been found wicked enough to keep from falling on the streets lately, However, I think they appreciate what is being done by the City ineer to make as many as possible of the icy streets safe by sanding, without losing sight t proposed 40 mill tax rate.

"For a period of six or seven years it has been the practice in Ann Ar- bor, Mich. to use calcium chloride for laying the dust cn dirt streets. Last season the city council passed a resolution making it possible to lay the dust on all dirt streets in the city, there being some seventy-odd miles of this type of streets. The to- tal expense for laying the dust on these streets is $22,326.14.

By the way, Easter comes this year on March 31, just in case you haven't looked up your calendar to find out.

Our experience was very satisfactory. It is more expensive than using sand, but it does not require so many ap- plications. One application under cer- tain conditions will tz4e care of two or three snowfalls. Sand, of course, answers the purpose very well in cold weather, but on days when it thaws during the day and freezes ov- er night, sand is not so lasting, as it will freeze over and the streets will be just as slippery as they were before the sand was applied.

K. according to There has been some delay in com- pleting the building since the var- fous tradesmen finished their part of the work, said J. J, Hayes, con- struction superintendent, yester- day. This was due to the fact that most of the equipment and furmi- ture was special order work, and had to be specially manufactured for the job, which delayed delivery considerably, he said. Much to do Yet It will take a little over a week to place the kitchen equipment in readiness for operation, said Mr. Hayes, Aftcr it is placed it has to be connected up, many of the stov- es to the gas lines, others to tne smoke vents, the steamers to the steam lines of the building, ete., all of which takes considerable time It is expectcd that the next room in which equipment will be installed will be the cafeteria which opens on Mary street, Dining room furniture and equip- ment, and carp:ts and furniture ro, the rest of the building will be fo: warded and installed as soon - their manufacture is completea, probably during the coming week.

WHITBY STILL UNDEFEATED i IN INTERMEDIATE GROUP Whitby, Feb. 2.--Defeating Port Perry 6 to 1 in an exciting game | witnessed by a large crowd here last night, Whitby Intermediates won their O.H.A. group and main- tained their record of mo defeats this season, The score was 1 to 1 at the end of the second period and {it. was anybody's contest, but the final stanza the locals displayed a | burst of speed and netted four goals in quick succession. | * It was one of the fastest exhibi- 'tions seen here for some time. Smith at centre for the homesters, proved the most effective and tricky player on the ice, being re- sponsible for no less than four of | Whitby's goals. He opened the | scoring in the first period when he | beat Deschenes with a hard shot from close in after slipping through the visitors' defence. Wallace notched Port Perry's first and only counter a few min- utes later, going down his right wing to score. Neither side could count in the second frame but the visitors were forcing play and nriss- ed two nice chances to score, Whit- by took the lead in the last twenty minutes and dazzled their oppon- ents with speed and stick-handling. Smith netted two more goals, while Rice and Sleightholm also counted. Deschenes, veteran goalie for the Port, made several miracu- lous saves and prevented the score from mounting higher. There were but few penalties. The teams: Port Perry--Goal, Deschenes. defence, Brock and Naples; centre, Walters; wings, McGregor and Moore. Whitby--Goal, Hawes; defence, Sleightholm and Hall; centre, Smith; wings, Rice and Atkinson; subs, Bradley and Ross. Referee--H. H, Jacobi, Toronto.

Dealers : Real Estate Board For Oshawa Planned by the Local Real Estate Men b Meeting Held Last Night Formed Provisional Commit. tee to Act WILL SEEK BUILDING BYLAW AND INSPECTOR Object of Association is to Give More Protection to Purchasers The organization of an Oshawa Real Estate Board, with the object of improving real estate conditions in the city, and giving the citizens a greater measure of protection in real estate transactions, was une dertaken at a mreeting of real es- tate dealers held in the office of L. V. Disney, last evening, when the tentative steps were taken to bring the board into being, The board will be affiliated with the Ontario Real Estate Board, which has branch organizations in Toronto, Hamilton, Windsor, Brantford, and most of the larger cities of the province. Arrangements were made at last night's meeting for a gath- ering of all the city's real estate dealers, to be held about the mid- dle of February, at which a speak er from the provincial body will be present to address the local men, and at which permanent officers will be elected. The provisional officers. appointed last night to plan this later meeting were Stanley Disney, provisional secretary, and F. C Lett and A. C., Lycett, provie sional committee members. Aims of Board The whole aim of having such a board was fully outlined at the meeting last night, when it was stated that the object of the board was solely to work together for the greater and saner development of Oshawa, By their special knot ledge of local conditions, the mem bers felt that they could give valu able co-operation to the Chambe; of Commerce and the Town Plays ning Commission, and that they might be able from time to time, to give these bodies valuable ad- vice, With such a board operating, it was felt also that building con- ditions might be improved, and greater inducements offered to loan companies to interest them- selves in local operations. Building Bylaw One of the first objects decided upon by the board last night was the urging of the passage by the city council of a set of building by- laws which would be enforcable, and would give protection to the purchasers of homes. It was ade mitted by the dealers that there had been contractors who had come into the city in the past and had put up homes which were not as they should have been, and that this had been detrimental to the honest builders when it came to disposing of new properties. The board, therefore, intends to urge upon the city council that proper bylaws be enacted, and that a building inspector be appointed to see that they are carried out. Pending the definite organiza- tion at the February meeting, the members of the board are planning to compile information from other cities which will be useful in the local operations.
