A THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, maw, iin Joc Y7, Y929 PAGE THREE Come 0 as; Farrwell Development Company Commenced Operations Monday With Modern Factory Plant T. W. Joyce, e, Manager of The Dominion Bank, Pressed the Electric Button That Started the Wheels Mov- ing. OFFICIALS CONFIDENT OF FUTURE SUCCESS Company Has Started Oper- " _ ations in a Modest Way, But Expects to Have Sat- isfactory Development The Farrwell Development Com- pany, a new industry in this city, started operations on Monday, when T. W. Joyce, local manager for the Dominion Bank, pressed the button that officially started the wheels mov- ing. The Farrwell company has estab- lished a plant at Albert street and Olive avenue, where they have in- stalled several new and costly ma- chines. They have established a modern machine shop, so equipped that it will handle any type of metal work, from the production of tiny, skillfully designed vanity boxes, to work in massive stee) beams a foot square. The First Product The company has started opera- tions in a modest way, with scven employees. The product that they have started to manufacture is the Sta-Put garage door control, for which they have secured the exclu- sive manufacturing and selling rights in Canada, the parent company being an established one in the United States. At the present time, they have enough orders on hand to keep the plant busy for a month, stated * Ed. Smith, president of the company. Good Prospects The shop is also cquipped to do custom work, in either repairing ma- chines or making new machines to specifications, Several repair jobs from Oshawa firms have already been received, as there is no other shop as fully equipped to handle custom work, said Mr. Smith. An order has also been received from a machinery selling company in, Toronto for the building of 300 small machines of a type that have previously been con- structed in the United States and im- ported into Canada, Mr. Smith said. ' Some of the machines at the local plant are still undefgoing tests and adjustments and cannot be placed in ° eration for a few days, but as soon possible full - production will be po Ln? and additional men taken on, Mr.. Smith stated. Most of the men employed by this' company are, of course, skilled in this line of work. "It will be our aim to develop lines that will give us year-round employ- ment, and we will endeavor to stear clear, as much as possible, from types of work that would be seasonal in character," Mr. Smith said. Canadian rights have been secured for other lines which will be devel- oped by this company, and patent rights have also been secured for new Jines that will be placed on the mar- ket as soon as the plant can handle them. The company will also be in a position to do custom work for in- ventors desiring to have working model$ made of their inventions.

E. Ellis, poll tax collector. L "I am determined to have all delinquents rounded up by August 1, and if necessary, police caurt prosecutions will be instituted to enforce the payment of the tax," said Mr. Ellis. A survey of the records is now being made, with the intention of taking action against all those that have not yet paid the tax, he said. Collections of poll tax up to June 30, less commissions, accord- ing to the city treasurer's state- ment, totallled $3,036.94. This was a reduction of $318 as com- pared With last year. The esti- mate for the year was $4,600. ZION SUNDAY SCHOOL PICNIC Zion Sunday school picnickers were visitors to Lakeview Park yesterday where they spent a pleasant day.

SunserBiack GEORGE ALCHIN HAS COME BACK FROM CONVENTION Tells of Big Merger of Com- panies He Represents in Radio Field There is to be a new industrial gi- .| ant in Canada in one of the young- est of the industries, declares George C. Allchin, of Oshawa, who has just returned from Toronto. Mr. Alichin was in attendance at the fourth annual convention of the Rogers and Majesti¢ radio dealers held at the Royal York Hotel for two days. The surprising announce- ment was made to the delegates at that time of the merger, understood to have been arranged, of a group of interests responsible for a large share of the radio business of the Domin- ion, namely: The Standard Radio Mfg.

Canadian Corp'n Ltd., distributors of Rogers and Majestic radios. It is anticipated that the name of the new company will be Rogers Radio Corp., Ltd, but actual details of organization are not available at this time. . Has A New Plant Coincident with the news of the change, the company starts opera- tions in a modern, beautiful plant located on Fleet street, Toronto, and just completed. Hundreds of radio merchants were in attendance at the meetings and a very enthusiastic reception was ac- corded the new models of Rogers and Majestic radio receiving sets for the 1929-30 season. Aside from the business of the convention, a program of entertain- ment had been arranged for the deal- ers including a dinner dance and en- tertainment that filled the huge con- cert hall of the Royal York Hotel to capacity; a.golf tournament and a baseball game for the men; a boat ride and tour of Toronto for the la- dies and two mid-day luncheons.

The children are af- flicted with various ailments and were sent to the island from the so- cial service departments connected with Boston hospitals and the school for crippled children. Miss Elsie Wulkop, formerly in charge of the House Social Service at the Massachusetts General Hospi- tal, is superintendent of the island. Gladys Beardwood, R.N., is one of the nurses. In addition to the regu- lar staff stationed on the island there is a group of volunteer workers, These volunteers come from Junior League branches throughout the country, exclusive private schools and prominent women's colleges. SLOOP LAUNCHED FOR WELL KNOWN MARINER Gloucester, Mass, July 17.--The launching of Captain Howard Black- burn's new sloop "Cruising Club" was an event of much interest here. The craft was built by Marion Cooney and is 30 feet long, 9 feet beam and is 7 feet deep. : Captain Blackburn commands a prominent place in Gloucester's sea history. He once had a marvelous escape from death after being astray in a dofy on the Grand Banks in mid-winter. He lost both his hands and feet as a result of exposure. As the "Cruising Club" slipped from the blocks, Miss A. Kathleen Forbes, Captain Blackburn's neice, broke a bottle across her bow, re- citing the ritual, "I wed thee to the sea.' The launching went off with- out mishap. Captain Blackburn intends to cruise about the coast and perhaps farther this summer. He has made several voyages across the Atlantic alone in small boats. Watch is Recovered After Two Years Buried Me., North Whitefield, ) July* 17. -- Two years ago while plowing, Charles Skehan lost' his watch.

The hour and minute hands had both been eaten away by rust. Mass, Next to last year's license there is nothing more useless than a former endurance record.--Chicago Evening Post, SETTLEMENT IS MADE REGARDING | JOHN ST. PROPERTY CITY MAKES DEAL TO BUY IT FOR $1,150 Negotiating For Land West of Creek as Set For City Park The vexed question of the exten- sion of John strect across Oshawa creek was finally settled to the satis- faction of all parties this morning, when Thomas Hinds, = owner, and Mayor Mitchell and a number of members of the city council agreed to the payment by the city of $1,150 for land, including approximately 1% acres, necessary® to extend John street between Centre and Nassau streets. ; The council has been trying for several years to have this street ex- tended across Oshawa creek, and ex- propriation proceedings were finally entered. The arbitration court to fix the amount to be paid for the land was scheduled for this morning, but the parties got together before the court convened and agreed to a settlement, which was approved by His Honor Judge Thompson, county court judge for Ontario county. City Solicitor J. F. Grierson represented the city and W. E. N. Sinclair, K. C, represented Mr, Hinds. Other Offers Made At the request of the city, Mr. Hinds also submitted an offer to the council for the sale of an area of land the width of the Centre School grounds, and extending back from the school grounds to the creck. The amount of the offer was not disclos- ed. An effort is also being made by the city council to have Mr. Hinds name a figure for the purchase by the city of the whole section of the creck bed owned by him, approxi- mately 28 acres, which would prob- ably be used for a new city park if it were purchased. It is understood that negotiations are proceeding 'in this regard. Mr, Hinds, who is now residing in California, has come to the city in connection with the ar- bitration proceedings. QUALITY PRODUCE FOR NEW ENGLAND Urges Raising o of the Best Crops and Stocks Portland, Me., July 17.--The Port- land, Me., Press-Herald is a staunch supporter of the beliefs of Arthur W. Gilbert, state commissioner of agriculture for Massachusetts. The Press-Herald in an editorial points to recent remarks by Mr. Gilbert and declares that the same remarks might find use in Maine farm circles. | The editorial in part: "Recently Mr. Gilbert has been appealing to the Massachusetts farmers to improve the quality of their crops. He has told them that the Boston market offers a. wondeful opportunity for the sale of the best food stuffs. He says: "There is no use in raising any- thing but the best in New England. Raise high. grade crops and they will sell. New England herself wants the best, and the best in the world can be raised here, in New England. Good produce sells more readily at high prices than common, mediocre stuff at a low price. Massachusetts farmers cannot raise anything but quality produce and compete with the rest of the country, all of which ships to the Boston market. You cannot go down into our Fancuil market or Quincy market and compete with California, Texas or New Jersey. or even nearby Rhode Island unless you have the high quality stuff to offer. They ship their grod products here and it takes good produce to com- pete with them. It igno use to raise junk." "All Mr. Gilbert says to the Mas- sachusetts farmers applies with equal force to those of Maine, Right at their doors they have one of the best markets in this country. Ten million people are their prospective custom- ers. This market demands the best food stuffs that can be produced. The New England consumer prefers most of the products produced in this sec- tion because they are superior in many respects. For the farmer who knows his business, is willing to work and keep abreast of the times, Maine offers opportunities which the Wes- tern farmers do not enjoy. Many farmers have moved into New Eng- land from the West because they have learned they can make more money here than they can in the states from whence ihey came, There is plenty of room for this type of farmer in this state. They will re- quire less capital to begin with and will find many advantages in Maine which no other state can offer." COLORFUL SUIT CASES Overnight cases are now select- ed either to match other luggage or harmonize with a special color scheme. Some of the new ones are made with inverted panel sides and rounded corners. The handles are almost square in shape, as are the locks, the whole idea being toward modernism. Inside there is a place for bottles although none is included--with special pockets and a covering. There is also an out side covering of cotton twill, with a patented fastening, to keep the bag clean. BORESOME AS USUAL "Do you think the candidate put enough fire into his speech?" 'Oh, yes. The trouble was he didn't put enough of his speech in the fire."--Answers. 1Carl, ... Real Home-On-The-Road Passes Through Oshawa home-on-the-road passed through Oshawa last night and stopped at PrestonvVale tourist camp, attracting widespread atten- tion, This home-on-the-road was owned by W. F, Persons of Dela- van, N.Y,, and was a product of the Roamers Automobile Co. It was a modern de luxe apartment on wheels, specially constructed and elegantly equipped. The car con- tained everything that a tourist would desire while on a trip. It was specially built on a heavy and sturdy Brockway chassis. Dove- tailed, fitted, finished and equipped with the best of workmanship as to the body, the furnishings . were such as only an owner and designer of rare taste could devise. It had hot and cold running water, toilet, shower bath, kitchenette, refriger- ator, built-in ventilating system, radio with berths that in the day folded into easy chairs with pneumatic uphols- tery, private office desk with type- writer, rear observation compart- ment, various traffic signal de- vices and other items of interest too numerous to mention. The front was ornamented with a regu- lation cowcatcher painted white. The car is equipped to carry dine and sleep four adults. It rides like a pullman and, according to its A real ceiling loud speaker, owner, is as easily handled as a sedan. The car gets ten miles to the gallon and can reach a speed of . 45 miles per hour, taking most hills on high. The cost of the com- plete outfit was $10,500. Mr. Person stated to the Times reporter that he averages thirty- five miles an hour. He has travefl- ed all over the United States dur- ing the last six months in it, touch- ing all four boundaries, the Pacific Ocean, the Gulf of Mexico, the At- lantic Ocean and the Great Lakes. Mr. Persons believes that in four or five years these travelling homes will do away with tourist camps. In speaking of Canada he stated that it was a wonderful country. "I have never slept so well on all my journeys as I have the last few nights," said Mr. Persons. Travell- ing with Mr. Persons was a young couple, Mr, and Mrs. Bolton from his town. Mr. Persons readily showed the Times reporter through his car, stating that lately he has not been doing so, as so many are attract. ed by the car and desire to see through it. Many cars similar to this one have passed through Oshawa, but there has never been one so com plete in details as it is. CITY AND DISTRICT NEWS CALLED TO LINDSAY A. E, O'Neill, principal of the Oshawa Collegiate Institute, was called to Lindsay taday on account of an accident which befell his mother. Mrs. O'Neill fell, dislocat- ing her arm and shoulder. A CORRECTION In.a police court report in yes- terday's issue of The Times it was stated that William Fredericks pleaded guilty to a charge of il- legally selling liquor. This was an error, the word "not" being omit- ted, as Fredericks pleaded not guilty, but was convicted after the evidence had been heard. NOT SIMCOE STREET In last night's issue of The Times, it was stated that a sec- tion of Simcoe Street was includ- ed in the paving program for this year. This, however, was an error in the board of works report as presented to the city council, and should have read "Summerville Avenue" instead of "Simcoe Street." PRINCE SENDS CABLE Oshawa Branch No. 43, the Ca- nadian Legion, received word today of a cable received by Col. C. H.

COLUMBUS MAN BADLY KICKED AND MAULED BY HORSE JAMES WANNAN IN HOS- PITAL IN SERIOUS CONDITION One Hundred Stitches Re- quired to Close His Wounds James Wannan, aged 69, of Co- lumbus, is in a serious condition at the Oshawa General Hospital as a result of being mauled and kick- ed by a horse on his farm. He is expected to recover, his son, Lorne, stated today, but will probably be in the hospital several days. One hundred stitches were required to close his wounds. On Saturday night, Mr. Wannan was taking the harness off his usu- ally quiet horse in the stable, when he slipped and fell in front of the horse. He was found an hour lat- er by his son sitting pn a pail, too dazed to get up, sufféring from a fractured right leg, several bad cuts, including some on the right cheek, under his chin, and on the back of his head, a broken ankle, and two fractured ribs. Dr. James Moore, Brooklin, who was first summoned, called tne Luke ambulance of this city and had the injured man rushed to the Oshawa General Hospital, where Dr. T. W. G. McKay was called into consultation. Mr, Wannan was im- mediately taken to the operating room, and was on the table 'four hours. ,One hundred stitches were required to close his wounds. He is now under the care of two spe- cial nurses, Miss M. Dickie, R.N and L. McKnight, R. N. When his son called at the hos- pital last night, Mr. Wannan was fully conscious and was feeling bet- ter, and reminded his son that the potatoes on the farm needed culti- vating. WOMAN DENIED NATURALIZATION Not Because She Wasn't a Citizen But Because She Was Brockton, Mass, July 17.--Mrs Leota Almena Colby, of this city, a native of ova Scotia, petitioned Judge Fc Iward turalization court here for citizenship and was rejected. Contrary to the general run of such cases it was not because Mrs. Colby was not a de- sirable but--because she already was a citizen of the United States. In fact, Mrs. Colby was what might called a "double-barrelled" citizen for she has twice been married to American citizens. Judge Broad- hurst informed Mrs. Colby that the dismissal of her petition was simply a reminder that she already possess- ed naturalization and apparently did not know it. The judge informed her' that first marriage back in 1919 United States citizen be her to a any doubt of that, her second mar- riage since to another American surely sealed the bargain. Another applicant rejected Judge Broadhurst was ley King, a Canadian, who came to this country on a visit but liked the place so well that he forgot to re- turn home. Naturally he overstayed his leave for visitation and now his case becomes a matter of interest to immigration authorities. Judge Broad- hurst declined to make him a citizen until he had eliminated the little dii- ferences with the Federal Immigra- tion Commission. PAJAMAS WITH SKIRTS Nowitzsky, who is famous for the creation of beach pajamas, has yielded to the lure of the skirt for the beach, adding to some-of her bathing suits very long skirts of vivid printed cotton. These skirts are easily detachable, as they are merely large squares of materials tied about the waist. For the head she makes a fascinating poke bon- net by the simple device of tying a very large placque of rough straw onto the head with a wide ribbon, which is knotted under the chin. Patou, who is the arch apostle of the ultra-feminine, al- lows no compromise on the skirt question. His beach dresses are real dresses. They are composed of waist and skirt, usually, and a coat that may be worn over the bathing suit is thrown in for good measure. The printed ensembles from this house, worn with a sim- ple white blouse, are preferred beach costumes in some of the most distinguished quarters. 39 Lives Are Lost Valparaiso, Chile~~Only one -man of the crew of the Chilean transport Abtao survived the sinking of the vessel off this port yesterday.

FEARS AIEEE OLD LOCOMOTIVE STAGES COMEBACK Original Engine of Mount Washington Company Railway picnickers pleasantly | Crawford Notch, N.H, July 17-- "Old Peppersass," the first locomo- tive in the world to climb a moun- tain, the original engine of the Mount Washington Cog Railway, on July 20, will again make the climb after having . been "lost" for 25 years. The sturdy old engine the collection was found of Presi- & Ohio roalroad and will be present ed by him to President George Han- nauer of the Boston & Maine rail- road. After its last trip up Mount Washington it will be placed per- manently on exhibition at the Bretton Woods railroad station. Others who will take part in the exercises on July 20 will include Governor Charles W. Tobey of New Hampshire, who will receive the lo- comotive from President Hannauer on behalf of his state, and will re- dedicate it to the interests of recre- ational New Hampshire. The locomotive was built in 1860: It was equipped with a boiler swing- ing .on pivots so as to be always vertical. Among the accomplish- ments of the engine was that it climbed the mountain pushing before it platforms loaded with lumber and rails brought to the foot of the moun- tain on ox teams, for the continua- tion of the track on which it was running. The cog railway was for- mally opened in 1869, and in its 60 vears of operation, there has not been a fatal accident. In 1893 the locomotive was taken to the World's Fair in Chicago for exhibition and then became "lost." It was purchased from the Field Mu- seum at Chicago by the Baltimore & Ohio railroad and was rediscovered by Rev. Guy Roberts of Whitefield, ., who interested New Hampshire an in its return here, Deatls ; WALKER--In Oshawa, day, July 17,° 1929, Frink, beloved wife of Mr. mon. Walker, aged 49 years.
