THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, APRIL 11, 1929 PAGE THREE 4 'oronto Transportation Bus Service to Oshawa Starts Today Interest Grows in Plans to Organize Horticultural Society For this City | bos of Com May "Take the Initiative in Plan to Establish Body to Un- 'dertake Work of Civic Beautification in Oshawa MANY ADVANTAGES IN ORGANIZATION -- J. H. H. Jury, Bowmanville Horticulturist, Outlines Some of the Benefits Which Would Accrue From Formation of Horti- cultural Society Beautify Oshawa! Such is the plea of certain interested and influential citizens of this city who see the need for greater beautification of vacant fots and factories, outskirts and resi- dential sections of a city that is so concerned with its industrial develop- ment that the finer touches of muni- cipal advancement are left to come along as they will. That Oshawa is in a position to benefit by organization of horticul- ture, is stated by J. H .H. Jury, pro- minent Bowmanville citizen and hor- ticulturalist, who, when approached by The: Times concerning the estab- lishment of a Horticultural Society in Oshawa, said he could see no rea- son why such would not prove suc- cessful from every point of view. He declared that many advantages are offered by membership in such a society and explained that the re- sults of local membership would cer- tainly tend to create a more wide- spread interest in civic beautification. Cities the size of Oshawa, he pointed out, all have horticultural societies and would not be without them. The effect of such an organization would repay a hundredfold the time and expense which would be required to place it upon a working basis, he declared. The Benefits For the small fees which are ne- cessary to become a member, many premiums are forthcoming. Subscrip- tions to "The Canadian Horticultur- alist," different varieties of seeds and plants and individual advice relative to the planting' and attention of a garden would be only a portion of the benefit. A horticultural society consist of two main branches, the adult class and the junior class. The former deals strictly with that pact of the work which: is interesting to the grown-ups while the juvenile de- partment aids and helps the younger people to establish gardents and create in them an interest in beauti- fication of their city as a whole. The results obtained by the existence of such an organization would be seen dn a very short time following its inauguration, Mr. Jury believes. Chamber Might Help Leon Frazer, secretary of the Osh- awa Chamber of Commerce and In- dustrial Commissioner stated that his opinion, the inauguration of a Horticultural Society within the city might well be entrusted to the Chamber of Commerce. As a purely service organization, the Chamber of Commerce would help to put the society on an estab- lished basis and then turn the reins of operation over to the officers when elected. When approached by The Times regarding the establish- ment of a society here, several in- fluential citizens believed that it was the only course to pursue if Oshawa is to be beautified and its vacant corners and outlying districts are to made presentable to visitors see- ing Oshawa for possibly the first time.

This road was damaged in several ways and will be closed to the tracic from Conlin's bridge north for some time. The suburban road is paved from Ross' corners, the city limits on the north, past the C.N.R. station, and has only been paved for a year. About half a mile from the city limits there are two culverts running under the road side by side. The heavy onrush of water flowing under the road and over the culverts has completely washed the dirt away from between the road and the cul- verts. Under the circumstances, since the road has no support at all, it would be expected that with the weight of a car passing over this spot would cause the road to cave in. This road was, however, built of re- enforced concrete and even the weight of heavy trucks on this space of about eight feet between the road and the culvert has not yet caused a cave-in, A number of the culverts along this road, which pass under private entrances, have been washed 'away and have made it impossible for the farmer to bring his car or wagon from the farmyard to the road. In nearly every case, where there has been a washout, the culverts have been of concrete. The metal culverts have stood iritact. The heaviest damage caused on this road is that which Conlin's bridge, which is more than a mile from the city, suffered. .The water flowing through the gulley, which this bridge spans, carried the dirt with it and in so doing undermined the foundations of this bridge. Al- though this did not cause a complete cave-in the bridge is becoming worse and seems to sink more each day. Nothing can be done to repair this bridge by those in charge until en- gineers arrive to view the situation and decide the best place to rebuild the foundations. The closing of this bridge, however, necessitates a de- our from Oshawa fo Columbus and points north. This detour is jmade from the forks at the Roman 3 lic cemetery to Five Points, horth from Five Points to Kedron cross to Columbus. Although this detour is passable the road is not in the best condition. The Oshawa suburban road is only one of the many roads which were damaged. North of Harmony a cul- vert of 14 foot span was completely destroyed and several culverts throughout the township of East Whitby were more. or less damaged, In some cases the roads are made impassable by these washouts, J.

No buses were sold to the T.T.C. by Mr. Collacute, the purchase price of his line iu cluding only the operating rights from Toronto to Oshawa. Gray Coach Lines have made their Osh- awa headquarters in the former Del Ray office at 52 Prince street. he name Del-Ray practically passes from bus line annals today, and even telephone calls to the formor Del-Ray number are answered by "Gray Coach Lines." The Collacutt Lines "I will continue to operate all my former lines except the Toron- to-Oshawa one, and will extend eastward to Kingston," said Mr. Collacutt to The Times this morn- ing. Collacutt buses will run into Toronto as before from Lindsay, Port Hope, Peterboro, Belleville and Kingston. No passengers will be picked up on the westbound rua by the Collacutt buses west of the eastern city limits of Oshawa, and only passengers for east of Osh- awa will be picked up on the east- bound trip from Toronto. The former Toronto-Belleville buses will continue their run through to Kingston, but no other change in his schedule is contem- plated at the present time, Mr. Cols lacutt stated. The Collacutt line will still have its head office at 13 Prince street, Oshawa. Purchase New Buses Mr. Collacutt recently purchased a number of new buses which he will place in operation on his East- ern Ontario runs, and on charter trips. 'They are the most wup-to- date buses in use in Ontario, Mr. Collacutt states, and are fitted up practically the same as parlor ears. The seats are upholstered in a most comfortable fashion, and the buses are equipped with both balloon tires and shock absorbers, two fea- tures that are not often found om the same bus.
