THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, JUNE 6, 1929 PACE THREE eetings Arranged to Discuss Bylaws With Ratepayers | Street Fair Committees Are Enthusiastic Over Plans. as Unfolded at Large Meeting Automobile Which Is To Be Given as First Prize in Big Draw Was Displayed to Members, and Will be on the Streets on Saturday PARADE PROMISES TO BE BIGGEST ' YET Many Unusual Attractions and Entertainment Fea- tures to be Provided for the Citizens at the Street Fair Which is to be held on June 19 On Saturday morning the automo- bile which is to be given away by the Oshawa Rotary Club as one of the features of the Street Fair on June 19 will be on display on the streets, but it will be encased in a colorful array of signs and decora- tions, so as to keep the people guess- ing as to what it exactly does look like. Last night the car was driven to the home of the club president. Gordon D. Conant, where a meeting was held of the general committee and booth chairman of the Street Fair, at which the final details of the program were whipped into shape, and provision made for every detail necessary to make the 'event a great success. The members of the committee were seized with the greatest of en- thusiasm as the plans for the street fair were unfolded, and the citizens of Oshawa and the surrounding community are to have provided for them on June 19 the greatest ever presented in the way of entertain- ment and attractions = for a street fair, Big Parade Rotarian Dave Tod has his plans all ready for a monster parade, and it is likely that, in addition to the lccal bands, the band from Port Perry will be on hand to join in the parade and provide music for the crowds during + the evening. The parade is timed to start at 7 p.m. promptly, and with an ambitious prize list, it should far exceed any- thing of its kind ever seen in Osh- awa. 4 The offer of co-operation of the Kiwanis and Kinsmen's Clubs was fully taken up last night, and the members of these two organizations, along with all the Rotarians, were assigned to their duties for the night of the big event by which the Rotary Club, each year, raises the funds to finance its community - and social welfare work. Scouts Taking Part A large participation of boy scouts is likely, as the troops from Brook- lin, Whitby, Bowmanville and sur- rounding points will be joining with the Oshawa scouts in competing for the special prize for the best-equip- ped scout, and the boys will also be assistants to the Rotarians in the work of the evening. It was definitely decided that, in the event of rain on June 19, the Streets Fair will be held on the fol- lowing evening, Thursday, June 20. A request was issued, too, that the merchants within Street Fair co-operate with the club by leaving their lights on for that evening. Reports of the various chairman revealed that the arrangements were all progressing splendidly, and the response of the citizens in buying tickets for the draw in which the automobile is the first prize has so far been excellent. Car To Tour District Through the generosity of the management of the Mercury Service Station, the automobile which 'is to be given away is to be parked there unil the night of the street fair. It will be taken out daily, and will be driven all around the city, as well as to the surrounding communities of Whitby, Pickering, Brooklin, Man- chester, Port Perry, Bowmanville, Newcastle, Orono and other places within easy reach of Oshawa.

C. Hod- gins, manager, stated today. The nc- cessary work will cost about $25,000 to $30,000 and will be undertaken at once, the contract having been lect to- day to Bathe & McLellan, of this city, To provide the extra accommoda- tion necessary, the store at 4' King street. east will be incorporated into the bank, and the dividing wall re- moved. An addition 24 by 24 feet in size will be built at the rear of the present store to carry it back to an equal depth with the bank premises. The ceiling of the bank will be rai- sed and the floor lowered to conform with the height of the store. The stone front of the bank will be carried eastward to close up the present store front, and the entrance to the offices upstairs at 2 King street east will be done away with. These offices will use the entrance on Sim- coe street, the wall on the second storey being cut through to provide actess to them. Complete Renovation The entire interior fittings and fur- niture of the present bank will be replaced, and the whole branch will be re-furnished and completely reno- vated. The manager's office will be removed to the front of what is now the store and space will be provided near his office for an accountant, and two assistants, The savings depart- ment will be placed where the man- ager's office and accountant's desk now stands, Three tellers' cages for commercial business will be provided, with an emergency tellers' cage for especially busy days. All of the banking equipment and desks will be arranged in a large L round the walls, with a large rotun- da in the centre for the customers. In this rotunda will be provided set- tees and desks for their convenience. The entrance to the bank will be left in the same position but considerably enlarged, A new book vault will be provided in the basement and a new safety deposit vault on the main floor in addition to the present large vaults, and a large examination room will be provided for use of safety de- posit box holders. An entirely new heating and lighting system will be installed, as well as lavatory and locker room accommodation for the staff in the basement, New Bookkeeping System An entirely new system of book- keeping for the savings department will be inaugurated when the altera- tions have been completed, Mr. Hod- gins stated. New ledger machines will be installed and a card index system will replace the old savings ledgers. There will be three ledger keepers for savings accounts, which will be divided alphabetically into three sec- tions, and the clerk in charge of each will be both teller and ledger keeper combined. Should a customer wish to make a deposit or a withdrawal, the money is transferred and the entry made in the pass book by the onc clerk without delay, thus materially reducing the time required in the old system where tellers and ledger keep- ers are separated 'and the transac- tion passes through several hands. This is the secend time that this bank has been doubled in capacity. When the Western Bank established an office on this corner it used about half of the present floor space for banking purposes. When the Stand- ard Bank of Canada absorbed the Western Bank, the size of the branch was doubled to its present capacity, and now, with the Canadian Bank of Commerce assuming ownership, the branch is again being doubled in size. The other branch of the Cana- dian Bank of Commerce on Simcoe street north will be closed after these alterations are completed. The branch at King and Simcoe streets will be open during the progress of the al- terations as most of the changes in the present banking office will be carried out after banking hours, $0 as to avoid any inconvenience to the public. \ PRODUCE PRICES ON THE MARKETS CHICAGO GRAIN EXCHANGE Chicago, Ills., June 6.--Foreign selling here and Liverpool quotations much lower than looked for did a good deal to bring about early setbacks in Chicago wheat values to- day.

I DEATH MONTREAL MAN IN OSHAWA IS INVESTIGATED Thomas Allan Died Appar- ently from Heart Attack HERE 18 MONTHS Bled Profusely at Theatre and at Room--Dief After Calling For Doctor Police are investigating the death of Thomas Allan, of Mont- real, who succumbed at his boarding house, 109 Simcoe street north, at about 12.30 o'clock this morning. Death was attributed by Dr. MacDonald who was called, to a heart attack. When the doctor arrived at the home in response to a telephone call from Mrs. Ellen MacKay, owner of the house, he found Allan already dead and bleeding profusely from his mouth and nose, According to Mrs. MacKay, Al- lan has stayed with her as a board- er about a year and a half. He was very reserved having practic- ally nothing to say to either she or other boarders in the house. Edward Witherington, who has been in Canada about seven years and who has stayed at the MacKay home for two years had struck up an acquaintance with Allan and was the only one the latter con- fided in. Went to Theatre It was believed Allan went to the theatre last night, attending the first performance. During the evening he experienced a heart at- tack in which he bled consider- ably, and expressed the hope when he returned to his rooms that he would not be so affected during the night. He and Witherington had sat up quite late talking, stated Mrs. MacKay, About half past twelve o'clock, Allan had apparently experienced another attack coming on and call- ed to Witherington to procure a doctor. He then stumbled towards the bathroom but succeeded only in gaining the door, where he col- lapsed. The noise of his fall awak- ened Mrs, MacKay and her two daughters, Peggy and Kathleen, Two other boarders, G, Portillego and Angelo Donotte rushed to the prostrate man but every effort to revive him was useless and he died before Dr. MacDonald could reach him.

An interesting list of figures, showing how much higher the cost of street lighting, in proportion to its volume, in the city of Oshawa as compared with certain towns and cities in this section of Ontario has heen compiled by Leon Frazer, secretary of the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce. The table shows that the cost per hundred watts or installation in Oshawa is over fifty per cent higher than it is in King- ston, and almost fifty per cent high- er than it is in Peterboro and Whitby.

In Pie- ton, also operating the system as a municipal plant, the rate is over twenty-five per cent lower than in Oshawa, this city being the highest in cost per hundred watts of all the cities listed. .

Taking a central place in the campaign will be a series of public meetings, at which prominent speakers, both from the city and from outside points, will be present to lay the facts before the people. The First Meeting The first meeting, arranged un- der the auspices of the city coun- cil, is to be held in the Council Chamber on Friday evening of this week. Ald. R., D. Preston, chairman of the special committee which acted on the bylaws, will occupy the chair at the meeting, which will be addressed by Mayor T. B. Mitchell, and also by C. T. Jeffrey, engineer of the Hydro- Electrjc Power Commission of On- tario. Some local citizens who have been in close touch with the situation will also be on hand prepared to answer any questions which might be forthcoming. In Rotary Hall On Tuesday evening next, a meeting will be held in Rotary Hall, at which the chief speakers will be Gordon D. Conant, Mayor Moore of Lindsay, and two of the public utilities officials of that town. Lindsay only last year took over its electric system, and al= ready has created so large a sur- plus that a rebate of two months' power bills is being made to the consumers. Ald. Boddy will pre- side over this meeting. At Cedardale On Wednesday evening, a meet- ing will be held in the Cedardale Hall, with Alderman E. Jackson as chairman. At this meeting, C. W. P, Every, superintendent of the public utilities at Whitby, will speak, along with F. L. Mason, president of the Central Ontario Power Association, and G. D. Con- ant. Another meeting, to wind up the campaign, will also be held on Thursday evening of next. week, but the details of this will be ar- ranged later. Large Attendance Urged At all of these meetings a full opportunity will be given the ratepayers and other citizens to ask questions regarding the by- laws on which a vote is being taken, and the mayor and city council are anxious that, in view of the importance of the issues nvolved to the future of Oshawa, here should be a large attendance at all the meetings. The bylaws will be discussed from every angle, and it is highly important that every ratepayer should attend at least one of these meetings so as to become fully informed on the questions.
