THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, APRIL 13, 1929 } The 'Whitby Daily Times POLICEMAN'S FEES '10 BE DISCUSSED BY TOWN COUNCIL Contentious ¢ Question will Come Up at Meeting "7 'Next Monday ' '(By Staff Reporter) Whitby, April 13,--A contentious {ssue, the question of fees for the police department, faces the town connell at its next regular meeting to be held in the council chambers Monday night. Notice that he would introduce a bylaw to abolish the fees of the police department was given by Deputy Reeve C. E. Bowman, at the last regular meet- ing of the council and supporters of the measure will probably at- tempt to give it three readings on Monday. Introduction of the bylaw fis practically certain to cause a divi- sion in council as some of the civ- ic fathers take the attitude that the work of the police department has been highly satisfactory and that it would ge advisable to leave well enough alone. Those who are opposed to the fee systém admit hat the police department should not work as efficiently witnout fees. LAWNS CARPETED WITH GREEN GRASS (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, April 18.--The frequent raing of/the last few days have had at least had one good effect, for the lawns of local residences are now carpeted with green grass, A week ago all lawns were covered with dead grass but the new blades have been coaxed up by the rain and now delights the eye of every- one., In another two or three weeks providing the weather is fav- orable, the trees should be burst- ing into leafage and Whitby's streets will be transformed into avenues of green.

From five o'clock on supper was served, including tasty salads, jellied meat, bread and butter, tea and cakes. The tables were nice- ly arranged, the floral decoraivions including daffodils and pussywil- lows. The whole event was con- ducted in a splendid manner. ADJOURNMENT IN EXAMINATION Waselena Witwicki, Osha- wa, Appears in Whitby Police Court (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, April 13.--An adjourn- ment of one week was made in the caseof Waselena Witwicki, of Osh- awa, who appeared before Magis- trate J. Willis, Dr. C. F, McGilli- + | yray, of Whitby, and Dr. Jas. Moore of Pickering, for an examination as to her sanity in police court yester- day afternoon, The woman was arrested in Osh- awa on a nominal charge of vag- rancy after she had escaped bare- footed and poorly clad from a house in which she had been stay- ing. She claimed that she had been frightened by hearing someone rat- tle the pones of her bedroom win- down, but admitted that it might have been the wind. The doctors wished to secure further evidence from people with whom she was acquainted as she was able to ans- wer all questions intelligently, The case was one of a harrow- ing nature as the woman is separ- ated from her husband and has no means of support. She spent some time in the reformatory at Toron- to and claimed that before return- ing to Oshawa she had been em- ployed in the home of a Jewish family, whom, she told the court, owed her for several months' wages, She could not remember their ade dress, however.

The incident was one which touched the heart of the whole community and many, including former playmates of the little lad, were present at the service." Rev. D. B. Langford, rector of St. John's Anglican Church was in charge as- sisted by Mr. Emery, a former lay reader at the Church. The ser- vice was very impressive and the rector sought to soften the poig- nancy of the grief with the mess- age of eternal life brought by Him whose life was distinguished by love for little children. A sad feature of the tragedy wus the fact that the mother of the de- ceased lad was overcome by her loss and was unable to remain for the full service. She was in De- troit when word of Harold's death was brought to her. The wealth of beautiful floral tributes spoke eloquently of the sympathy which hag been manifest- ed for the family during its sad bereavement, The pallbearers who were all school boys and former acquaint- ances of the deceased child, were Warren Watson, Richard Blow, John Gill, William Till, Donald Hodge and Patrick Neill. Inter- ment was made In St. John's Cem- etery.

TENNIS CLUB GIVES FINE PRESENTATION OF COMEDY DRAMA (By Staff aff Reporter) Bowmanville, April 12.--A fair sized audience gathered at the Opera House on Thursday evening to see the comedy "Be An Opti- mist" put on by some of the mem- bers of the Bowmanville Tennis Club. No doubt the inclement weather kept many away who would otherwise have been present, but those who came were given » pleasant evening, The story dealt with the difficulty Jimmie May- nard had in inducing Mrs. Clinton to accept him as a son-in-law, even going so far as to permit himself to be bound up as a"mummy"' to take the place of one that was to be delivered to Mrs. Clinton on a certain afternoon but which was damaged in transit. In order to prevent Mrs. Clinton being disap- pointed, Jimmie makes a bargain with Isaac Golditeh, dealer in an- tiques, to substitute forthe '"'mum- my", in this way saving Golditch from losing his best customer. As "Jimmie Maynard', Edsall Oliver, who is no stranger to a Bowman- ville audience, proved himself to be an excellent "mummy" as well as a "talkie'" actor and quite sus- tained his splendid reputation as an actor. The part of the haughty Mrs. Clinton, whose sole interest in life seemed to be the acquiring of antiques, was well known by Miss Nellie Montgomery, as was also the part of her daughter, Mil- dred, very much in love with Jim- mie, portrayed in a snappy manner by Miss Bernice Bagnell. C. H. Dudley as Isaac Golditch made a typical antique dealer, running true to form when it came to mak- ing a bargain. Others taking part were Miss Helen Osborne, Miss Betty Sargent, Miss Gertrude Mor- ris, Miss' Marie Ames and Messrs. A. H. Bounsall, Stuart James and Bernard Mitchell, each one taking his or her part in a most credit- PICKERING Miss Jean Clark, Correspondent.

T, Allen was held from St. John's Anglican Church on Friday afternoon, the rector, Rev. R. J. Shires, having charge of the service assisted by Rev. A. Bunner who read the scripture. .

REGULATIONS ON ADVERTISING HAVE BEEN MODIFIED (By Canadian Press Leased Wire) Toronto, April 13.--A modifica- tion of the present regulation cov- ering undertakers' advertising will be tried out for the next six moNths in an effort to circumvent the pre- sent extraordinary situation, ae cording to an announcement made today by the Hon. Dr. Forbes God- frey, provincial minister of health and labor. By the Embalmers' and Funeral Directors' Act, undertakers are al- lowed to publish, as advertising, nothing more than a small, plain professional card, This law and in particular this clause, was the subject of considerable protest from the press as well as from under- takers, when it was passed at the 1928 session of the legislature. Nor was the protest without effect, for the board of examiners appointed to enforce the act, never has enforc- ed it strictly. Following a conference with Thomas E. Simpson, M.P., for West Algoma, who is secretary of the board of examiners, Dr. Godfrey in- timated it was intended to stamp out objectionable advertising by en- forcing a modification of the regu- lation which would allow the ua- dertakers greater latitude. £0 to Feminine Grace and Beauty Science has achieved many important aids for enhancing woman's personal charms.

In some quarters even the predic tion was made yesterday that with- in two weeks the military problem presented by the rebellion would be definitely solved. Fall of Ciudad Juarez to Federal troops aroused little comment here. Since evacuation of Chihuahua has come to be taken for granted. Ad- vices to the city's evacuation, and subsequent occupation by loyal troops, comprised the only news of military manoeuvres reaching Chapultepec Castle during the day. Federal forces presumably were continuing their advance from Cu- liacan, capital of Sinaloa, toward San Elas, on the Rio Fuerte, in the northern part of the state, and some fighting at least was expected before the rebels retreated north- ward into Sonora. t, Kidney Pill, which I did.
