THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, APRIL 20, 1929 PAGE THREE EE. Industrial Development Company is Granted Its Cha Storm Damage Totals $30,000 To Two Majcr Bridges Destroy- ed--One Washout Sweeps Away 40 Rods of Road Surface--Many Culverts to be Replaced ELECTORS WILL VOTE ON DEBENTURE ISSUE] Council Considering Placing Before the Pegple Ques-/ tion of Issuing Debentures to Cover Cost of Repairs to Township's Works 'Damage estimated at $30,000 was done to public works in East Whitby township by the flood of. April 5, The Times was informed yesterday by Reeve John Ross. A survey of the damage was recently made in the township and this figure arrived at as the approxi- mate loss. Since this amount reaches such @ high figure, the township coun- ell is considering submitting a by- law to the electors of the municl- pélity in a short time, to author- {ge the council to issue deben- tures to cover . the repairing of roads, bridges, and other public works, Reeve Ross intimated. In the meantime temporary works are being 'constructed to take care of traffic on the various roads made impassable by the storm. {One washout on a road between the third and fourth concessions, had taken away completely 40 rods of the road surface, the in- spection disclosed. Other = bad shouts were found on the roads, some of which wil) cost $500 to répair, and in many places cul- verts will have to be replaced, each of them costing between $400 and $600. Several bridges were also swept away, chief of these being the Nesbitt Bridge, on the fifth concession north of the Union Cemetery, and a bridge north of Harmonv, Public Works in Township, Survey by the Council Shows CHEVROLET HOLDS SPRING SHOVING DURING NEXT WEEK Dealers' Showrooms Blos- som Forth Today in Nation- wide Presentation Today, Chevrolet showrooms throughout Canada blossom out as fashion salons for a one-week, na- tion-wide "Spring Showing" of the new Chevrolet Six. "So much has been spent in making this year's car a thing of style and beauty, as well as of mechanical excellence, that it was felt necessary to make some un- usual effort to display the seven models In a manner both appropri- ate and convincing. The national spring showing is the result," says Ross Mackinnon, general sales manager for the Chevrolet Motor company. He adds, "In the past elaborate showroom settings have usually been reserved for the large and expensive cars--merely be- cause the smaller, less costly cars failed to look their best against such backgrounds But this year we have developed in the new Chevrolet Six a car which holds its own in the most ornate sur- roundings. This was proven at the big motor shows at various points in Canada, and now we are out to demonstrate the fact to car buyers everywhere." In consequence of which deci- sion, Chevrolet dealers have been engaged for a week past in prepar- ations for the big event. In many cases experts in decoration have been engaged. Flowing draperies, oriental rugs, palms, ferns and exotic flowers have been conscript- ed for the purpose of making the "test" of the mew Chevrolet5s beauty as severe as possible.

ROTARIANS WAKING THER PLANS FOR BiG STREET FAIR WEDNESDAY, JUNE 19, IS THE DATE FIXED Greater Attractions Than "Ever To Be Provided for Citizens At a special meeting of the Street Fair Committee of the Rotary Club, held last night, preliminary plans for this year's street fair were discus- sed and decisions made that w ensure greater attractions than ever being provided for the people of Osh- awa on this great occasion, The committee under the chairmanship of Rotarian Frank Johnston, decided that, in order to avoid any incon- venience to the local merchants, the street fair would be held on Wed- nesday, June 19, this being a half- holiday when the stores will be clos- ed. Efforts will be made to have the street parade bigger and better than ever by offering extra prizes. This department being in the hands of Rotarian Dave Tod. The question of special prizes and attractions was also thoroughly dis- cussed, President G. D. Conant be- ing left to deal with the former and Rotarian Bob Preston the latter. It was also decided that, as in former years, the booths on the streets will be built by the members of the club on the afternoon of the fair. Since all the proceeds of the street fair go to the community service funds of the Rotary Club, and the club has heavy obligations in this respect, the Rotarians are determin- ed to put forward great efforts to secure even greater public support than ever before in order to make this year's street fair the most suc- cessful ever held in Oshawa, Chicago's proposed World's Fair wil not take place until 1933, and by that time a real live Chicagoan ought to be worth going miles to see Latest Financial News Troster Dn rk en Petes dh ew Stoble, Forlong and Ce. 1 KIWANIS CLUB IS | HOST T0 DISTRICT LT.-GOV.
