Police Chief's Flower Bed Stripped of Fine Blooms Just because summer is here and flowers are coming out to make front gardens beautiful is no reason sneak thieves should take advan- tage of the darkness and pick aoz- en after dozen of tulips from flower beds in.the city. Chief Friend of the police department was one ot those who suffered last night in this regard, for his flower bed at the front of his house was stripped of beautiful colored tulips last night by someone who evidently didn't know from whose premises they were stealing. Dave Tod, on Simcoe street north was another to suffer. Thieves stole a number of flowers from a bed on his property, Mr. Tod reporting the matter to the police this morning. Although citizens in Oshawa are not usually bothered by this petty thieving every year, the police be- lieve that stern measures will have to be taken to curb the pilfering, and it will go hard with anyone caught committing the act of steal- ing from gardens throughout the city Chet of Police Friend in reply to a question from The Times this morning, declared that the mini- mum penalty for a conviction of the theft from a garden is one month in jail for the first offence and for the second offence three years in jail. =] Latest Financial News Market Summary by Canadien Vorouto snd M To Sk Gen Bet Stoble, Forlong and NEW YORK STOCKS High Low 2 p.m. 136 13 13% .226% 224 224 120% 120 120%; 31% 31 31 2251, 223 833% 81 71% 68% Congoleum 2014 20 Cur, Aero 149% 146 Erie .......76 75% Fam, Ply, 633% 63 Gen.

Following the autopsy on the body of Klemzuk, it was decided that death was due to natural causes.

GENERAL MOTORS NEW CARS ARE SHOWN PUBLIC CITIZENS INSPECT THE MARQUETTE AND VIKING MODELS | | Striking Appearance of Cars on Display Appeals to All Who See Them A large number of Oshawa citi- zens had the oportunity last night of viewing the new Marquette and' Viking models, products of Gen- eral Motors of Canadn Limited, at the new General Motors Auditor- ium, Although dealers' showings have taken place every morning and afternoon since Wednesday, the public was allowed in to the show rooms last night, and it was apparent that the new models will be a popular addition to the long line of General Motors products now on the market, The new cars in a variety of col- ors are well-layed out on the aud- itorium floor amidst a wealth or plants and flowers. Dealers haye voiced the opinion that there is a demand for cars in the Viking and Marquette classes, so that models now on display will no doubt prove very poputar and place themselves in the class of good selling motor vehicles, The new Viking models, them- selves one of the most attractive makes of cars, were .arranged in splendid array at the stage end of the auditorium and represent the las word in motorized efficiency. Guaranteed to reach a great speed, at little or no effort, the various models, six in all, present a fine appearance and are equipped wrnh the V~type eight-cylinder engine which spells power at the first glance. The Marquette, another of the new additions to the G.M. prod- ucts, was on display in 12 differ- ent modes. The color systems were unusual but very attractive, and will be a popular car with the motoring public. Both cars bear a striking appearance and carry with them a quiet, dignified look. The graceful lines of the body are splendid features which are bound to please even the most critical car-buyer. The show-room will be open until ten o'clock tonight, when the pulic as well as the dealers are invited to see the new models, Card of Thanks Mr. and Mrs. Orville MacInally and family, 97 Bruce St., wishes to acknowledge with grateful ap- preciation the kind expressions of sympathy from friends, neighbors and relatives extended to them in their recent sad bereavement also for the beautiful floral tributes sent.

E HAISER SPEAKS ATRENFREW Addresses Rotary Club On Neglected Cemeteries of the Province Dr. T. E. Kaiser of Oshawa, Con- servative M.P. for Ontario county, went up from the House of Com- mons at Ottawa on Thursday last, and was guest speaker at the week- ly luncheon of Renfrew Rotary Club. He spoke of the neglected cemeteries of the pioneers of this province, es- pecially of those early settlers who came to Upper Canada in 1784 as Un- ited Empire Loyalists, He gave an account of much which has been done in some parts of Ontario to remedy this state of affairs, the work con- sisting mainly in assembling old tombstones and building them into cairns and pergolas, names on the stones being presented to view. PUBLIC SCHOOLS CLOSE ON MONDAY, KING'S BIRTHDAY Otherwise "Business As Usual" Will Be Proced- ure on June 3 "Business as usual" with a greater part of Oshawa people will be the procedure on Monday, June 3, the birthday of His Majesty, King George V. Although the birthday of the king is a statutory holiday, it is not observed as such and no proclamation has been is- sued by the Mayor declaring Mon- day a general holiday. The staff at the city hall will be on duty throughout the day, stated F. E. Hare, city clerk this morning although in observance of the date no police court will be held. City public schools will close for the day but owing to the unusual hours at the high school classes will go on as usual until two o'clock in the afternoon when Cadet inspection will be a feature of the curriculum, The holiday will also affect the city banks which will close. Gen- eral delivery at the post office will remain open for the benefit of the public from nine until eleven o'clock in the morning while regis- tration wickets will be open for the same hours. There will be no money order seryice. The public lobby will remaigfopen from eight o'clock in the orning until six at night. One lettég carrier delivery | will take place in the morning, and mails will be collected from city boxes about five o'clock in the afternoon. Mails for despatch will receive customary attention. The holiday represents the cele- bration by His Majesty of his sixty- fourth birthday. Few picnics or holiday jaunts have been arranged for the simple reason that prob- ably "Dad" has to put in his time at work and a picnic just wouldn't be a picnic unless Dad was there. Besi@2s the fact that June 3 is considered rather earlyfor pic- nicking the date falls so closely that of Victoria Day that it does not lend itself to holiday making. FREE METHODISTS TO OPEN CHURCH HERE The Free Methodist Church, which is now the only incorporated Metho- dist Church in Canada, is opening a work in Oshawa under the leadership of Rev. E. R. Orser, formerly of Campbellford, but now of Armadale, north-east of Toronto. For the present preaching services : will be held on Sunday afternoon and a mid-week prayer service on Thurs- day evening at eight o'clock. The place of worship is in the premises occupied by the Peerless Business College over the Arcade store on Sim- coe street north, Born BORN---AT OSHAWA GENERAL Hospital, Wednesday, May 29th, to Mr. and Mrs. Harold Roy El- ford, a son, (128-a) There is need for lovers of nat- ural beauty to go to Niagara and the fruit belt to enjoy scenic won- ders that are worth viewing. Right in the Oshawa distritt at the pres- ent time are to be found some pic- tures of nature that are remark- able for their outstanding beauty, in sweep of landscape and in color- ing. . One of the finest views is that which is to be had from the high- est point of the road running south of the highway on Hart's Hill, east of the city. The other might a Jepresentative of The Times Beauties of Nature Can Be Seen Close to Oshawa view, and was struck by its mag- nificence. Looking to the gouth, out over the lake, to the west, over the city, and then away to the north, there stretched out to the far horizon a landscape of won- derful . beauty, with orchards in full bloom forming the most strik- ing aspect of the picture. It is often true that the people of a community do not fully real- ize the beauties of their own dis- trict, and seek beauty spots far afield. Thé people of Oshawa, however, do not need to go more than a couple of miles to enjoy one of the finest scenic aspects to Development of Sub-dive isions in North End of the City To Go Ahead Im mediately Water Supply, Is Available ' COMMISSION TO LOOK OVER THE SITUATION City Engineer Reports Dif. ficulty in Collecting Are rears: of Water Rates Amounting at the Present Time To About $6,000 The Oshawa Water Commission has been finding it more difficult to collect water rates this spring than it has in some time. City Engineer W. C. Smith reported to the Come mission at its regular meeting last night that arrears on the books of the Commission at the present time total $6,000, which is larger than in the same period for several years. Accompanying this statement, were a number of requests from various citizens that their accounts be held in abeyance for some time, and that the water be not turned off even though their accounts were in ar- rears. The engineer stated that his department had in the last few days been resort:ng to personal collection methods in an endeavor to get some of these arrears cleared up, as it was not the desire of the depart- ment to turn off water for non-pay- ment of rates unless it was found impossible to collect. Applications For Water Considerable discussion was pre- cipitated in the meeting of the com- mission yesteraay afternoon hy two applications for water mains, one from Hills & Dales, Ltd, dnd one from Alderman S. G. Carnell and his neighbors on Ritson road north. Al- derman Carnell requested that water be supplied to. his district, under either one of three propositions. The first was, to have the main go north on Ritson road from the end of the present main, a distance of 1,600 ft., to serve seven houses; or to go east along Hillcroft street, along the southern boundary of Hills & Dales subdivision, from the end of the pres- ent main on Hillcroft street, then turning north along Ritson road, a distance of 1,200 feet, to serve five houses; 'or to go east from the end of main at Greta and Grierson streets, through Hills & Dales, via Greta Crescent to Ritson road. The third proposition tied up with a petition of Hills & Dales, Ltd., presented by A. C. Lycett, president, and G. W. Pinner, secretary-treasur- er of the company, that a main be constructed east from the end of main at Greta and Grierson streets, along Greta crescent, Maplevale Drive and Gorevale crescent, a distance of 2,400 feet in all. Mr, Pinner said that there was one house now on the property and that Hills & Dales could guarantee that at least six houses would be built immediately water was available. A further 1,- 385 feet would serve Mr, Carnell and his neighbors, and would pass sites for three more houses that would be built at once, No Decision Reached No decision was reached by the Commission on either of these ap- plications, as it had been the custom 'of the commission to give water main service only when there was at least 1 house per 100 feet of main. The members will meet on Wednesday to view the situation and decide wheth- er or not the supply of water to this property would be feasible. Proposal Accepted A Dropocat 0 of ine Carnegie Hutch: eson Land Co. that.900 feet of main be laid onto Hibbert sireet, in a sub- division they are opening up, was accepted. The land company is pay- ing $1.80 per foot towards the laying of the main, the commission ahsorb- ing the balance of approximately 60 cents per foot. New Services The commission decided to install a 12-inch main on Howard street from Bloor street to First avenue, a distance of 1,350 feet. Although there were only 11 houses on this section of main, not quite one house to 100 feet, the main was part of a connecting link in a 12-inch main that will ultimately extend ' from Bloor street to the tower near the collegiate grounds, relieving the main on Simcoe street. Six-inch mains will also be constructed on: First avenue from Oshawa street to Howard street, 260 feet; 'Tresane street from the end of main to the east end of the street, 180 feet. Peti- tions for mains on Second avenue, Division street, and Huron street were laid over. 7 : Na TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY 37 PONTIAC SEDAN FOR SALE. Perfect condition.
