THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, MAY 4, 1929 The hi! i Times Advertising, subscriptions and news will be next the post THREATENED BY THE HIGH WATER BREAKWATER WEAK. ENS BEFORE HEAVIEST. SEAS IN YEARS Waves Sweep Over Govern- ment Docks and Under- mine Fill Whitby, May 4.--High water 4nd a heavy sea have combined to threaten the safety of Port Whitby harbor during the past two days. Never in the history of the oldest resident has the water of Lake Ontario attained a higher level than it has this past week. The water has crept up as high as the top of the breakwater while the docks in the shelter of the har- bor are but a scanty inch above the lake level. During the storm office. ~Ti yesterday the waves swept right over the docks and undermined much. of the fill behind them. Grave fears were expressed by an official of the Randolph Mac- Donald Company, Great Lakes dredging and salvaging company with a station at the harbor, that the old breakwater would be swept away "thus exposing the expensive concrete' docks to the fury of the lake. If this should occur the dam- age would run into thousands of dollars and the harbor be practic- ally ruiged. At the present time repairs are being made to' the breakwater at its eastern :extrem ity but those familiar with harbor conditions are convinced that the remaining stretch should' also 'un- immediate repair. The 2 d mot be large in comparison vies the damage which would certaloly be wreaked. if the, pres- ent water should be 'swept away." i. An epquiry was received. at the harbor as to the whereabouts. of the Canida Steamship freighter Saskatoon which is thought' to have taken refuge in a port be- tween Toronto and Kingston dur- ing the storm. No'sign was seen of the steamer here although a Yes- sell was perceived sailing east- ward on Thursday afternoon, Its name could not be distinguished however.

PICKERING YOUNG PEOPLE GIVE PLAY HERE LAST NIGHT "Yesterday's Roses" Pro- vides Much Merriment for Large Audience (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, May 4.--The three act play "Yesterday's Roses" present. ed by the Young People's Soclety of St. Andrew's United Church, Pickering, in the school' room of St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, last night, was much enjoyed by the large audience which was in attendance. The visiting actors played their parts to perfection and gave a splendid interpretation of their various roles, The plot concerned a lover who courted a young lady for eighteen years ana at the end of this period became enamoured with another young lady at first sight and married her with little delay. Although many comical situations developed the play came to a happy conclusion as the first young lady was not des- tined to spinsterhood but found another lover who suited her much better than he of the lengthy courtship. The members of the cast in- cluded Miss Marjorie Robertson, Miss Jean Annan, Miss Jean Clark, Miss Marjorie Annan M. S. Chap- man W. H. Westney, Henry West- ney, and John Baxter, At the conclusion of the per- formance the visitors were enter- tained by the Young People's So- ciety of. the local church, whose auspices the play had been held.

Bishop Sweeny, Toronto, Was in Charge of the Service (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, May 4.--A class of six boys and twelve girls from All Saints' Anglican Church and a class of three boys and one girl from St. John's Anglican Church were confirmed at a special ser- vice held in All Saints' Church, last evening. Rt. Rev, J. Sweeny, assisted by Rev, D. B rector of St. John's Church and Mr. A. H. Cuttle, lay reader at St. Alban's Cathedral, Toronto. The need of dedicating one's talents to the service of God was stressed by Bishop Sweeny in an eloquent and {inspiring sermon. The speaker pointed out that there was a vast difference between the parable of the talents and the par- able of the pounds, The one, he affirmed, had reference to the var- fed abilities of men whereas the other was concerned with money. "Talénts are meant to be used," declared Dr. Sweeny, 'they must be enlarged and accounted for, God will demand from us how we em- ployed our talents." Each man had different capabili- ties the speaker declared, but the talent of time was given to all. "Time is divided for us into seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months and years, It is let down between eternities and may be used for good or evil. Each min- ute can be devoted to good deeds or kind thoughts or it my be wasted or spent in evil" the Bishop continued. He then pointed out that all the great men of history employed their time to good advantage. The value of education was stressed by Bishop Sweeny who showed that it was a means of showing the student where his talents lay. It allowed for self- examination and preparation, The need of exercising a good personal example was emphasized strongly by Bishop Sweeny. He was convinced that everyone influenced those about him to a certain ex- tent and warned his hearers to 'exert a good influence. There were many opportunities, Dr. Sweeny continued, where one could use the talent of charity. "Do not be blind or deaf to the many who are in need of help," he said. In conclusion the Bishop of To- ronto showed that the church had need of the talents of men and speaking in particular to those of the confirmation class he asked that they should use their talents in the building up of the Kingdom of God. The order of confirmation was performed by His Grace, the ser- vice being most impressive. The offering which was taken last night will be donated towards the fund for the restoration of beau- tiful St. Alban's Cathedral, whic' was badly damaged by fire sev- eral weeks ago. Bishop Sweeny expressed regret that Rev. J. M. Crisall, rector of All Saints' was unable to be pres- ent on account of illness and ex- pressed the wish that he might soon be able to resume his work in the parish.

HEAR 'CINDERELLA' BY LOCAL TALENT Was Given Last Night Un. der Direction of Mrs. Clark Bell (By Staff Reporter)' Bowmanville, May 4.--A capaci- ty audience filled the Opera house on Friday night when the operetta 'Cinderella' was presented by lo- cal talent under the direction of Mrs. Clark Bell. That the well known, story still has power to fascinate both 'ota and young was evidenced by the undivided attention and heary applause of the large audience. Each of the artists' took his or her part exceptionally well. Mrs. George Hall made a winsome Cin- derella, while Miss Helen Yellow- lees portrayed the part of the Fairy Grandmamma in a graceful manner. Special mention should be made of Mrs. Alex Colville sua Miss Grant who took the parts of the sisters Charity and Patience. The sarcasm of their endearing. terms to each other fairly sizzled and their cruel treatment of poor Cinderella and the trying time they gave "dear papa" was excep- tionally well done. Their efforts to attain proper deportment when meeting the Prince and their chag- rin at being snubbed at the ball brought forth gales of laughter. Melville Dale made a splendid Prince, while the part of Papa was of these gentlemen singing their solos in fine style. The fairies, Prince's attendants and guests at the ball all took their parts well, a pretty scene be- ing a minuet danced by Mrs. Geo. Downey, Mrs, Charles Rice, mrs. Wm, Dobson, Miss Elizabeth Best, Miss Grace Caverley and Messrs. Ceci! Dudley, George Hall, 8. Jlan- ville, Bert Bounsall and Weese. Between the last two acts a duet for two pianos was beautitully played by Mrs. Bell and Mrs. Dud- ley, these two ladies also supply- ing the accompaniment for the operetta. A pleasing incident was the presentation of flowers to Mrs. Bell and Mrs, Dudley at the con- clusion of their plano number. Solo dances were given by Misses Marie Stalker and Norah Brown. The group of the Women's As- sociation of St. Paul's church re- sponsible for the entertainment, are to be congartulated on the suc- cess achieved by their efforts. The oepretta will be repeated in the opera house on Monday ev- well done by Henry Knight, both, 'the funeral of his mother, PICKERING Miss Jean Clark, Correspondent Telephone 800 MUCH ANXIETY AT PICKERING DUE T0 FLOOD Creek Floods Highway, Gravel Roads Washed Out, Cellars Flooded Pickering, May 3.--Owing to the havoe wrought by the flood at the beginning of April the heavy rains of Thursday, caused a great deal of anxiety {in the vicinty, Fortunately, little damage was done, although the water rose to a high level in some places. The highway was submerged to a dep'h of six inches, west of the village, early in the evening but did not stay in that condition very long. A portion east of the village was also covered. At the end of Church street, where the waters reached a reco height a few weeks ago, the road "bed was again washed out. The cellars in the village were once more affected. The cellars of sev- eral homes were flooded as well as the basements of Chapman's and Richardson's stores, and the Eastern House. The water poured into the Sunday School of St, Paul's Church, but the men of the congregation, remembering the state of the room after the last heavy rain were on hand early, and were able to remove all perishable articles before the water entered Three floods in four months, makes one wonder what next is in store for us. 'Highway Dept. employees, whose headquarters are at Pickering, pat- rolled the road all Thursday night so that any accidents caused by the condition of the road, might be averted. Red lanterns and danger signs, were placed wherever it was thought necessary, which were a great source of safety to motorists.
