op THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1930 PAGE THREE tilities Commission Discusses Plans For New Office Building Importance of Boys' Work Is Stressed by Speaker at Banquet of Kinsmen's Club Club' Members Become Boys Again As They Entertain . Sixteen Youthful Guests MACK S. SOANES Big Brotherhood Movement The regular banquet of the Kins- men's Club, held at Welsh's Par- lors last night, took on added im- portance as the Kinsmen had as their guests sixteen boys between the ages of 'eight and 14, The club members entered heartily into the spirit of the occasion and all felt themselves as boys again as they partook of the splendid fare set be- fore them and joined with thelr younger brothers in a jolly sing- song. Considering that it was boy's night, the club could not have been more fortunate in its choice of Mack SPOKE AT LINDSAY A. E. ONEILL Principal of the Oshawa Colleg- iate and Vocational Institute, who adddessed the Kiwanis Club at Lindsay yesterday. ' S. Soanes as speaker. Russell Storks, chairman of the committee in charge, introduced Mr, Soanes to his audience and referred to his great activities in boy's work in Oshawa. The importance of taking =a friendly and helpful interest in the boy life o fthe ¢ity was emphasized by Mr. Soanes in the course of an address which compelled atten- tion and provided much food to: thought. It was a pleasure, the speaker said, to know that there ex- isted in Oshawa a club of young business men, such as the Kinsmen, who are pledging themselves to carry on boys® work. He also had a | word of praise for the club stating that it was always quick to respond when called upon to render any worth while service. Referring to a boy's life from the standpoint of his home surround- ings, early companionship, youth: ful admiration and youthful ideals, Mr. Soanes was emphatic in stating that it was a great thing for older men to act a8 big brothers to the younger fellows, Boys, he said, al- WAYS Te s which is shown to them an ikewise thes never forget 3 have slighted, hurt or ony: The fellow who is given friendly en- couragement today may be the man of power and influence tomorrow, he said. Praise for the country's educa- tional system 'and its relation to boy life was voiced by the speaker. "Education is the corner-stone in the development of a boy," he said. "But education can not do all and the big brother movement is needed. Oshawa needs a club like the Kinsmen to take a friendly in- terest in boys. If everyone would spend a few minutes a month as- | sisting some boy he might uncover a mighty gem." In continuing Mr. Soanes lala stress upon the keenness of a boy's mind and on his well developed powers of observation. Boys are idol worshippers, he said, and if a boy has fixed some good man as his ideal of what a man should be he will endeavor to follow his example. But if his idol should completely ignore him then the boy might transfer his hero worship to some person whose example would be more harmful than beneficial. "Life is brief," the speakér con- cluded, "and work among boys will repay one immensely for after all, a little money and many true friends are worth" infinitely more than millions and a life which is almost barren of friendship. Boy's work is a virile work and there is a great deal to be done in Oshawa." Mr. Soanes had brought a real message and challenge to the Kins- men and he was certain that the club would do its best to help in a 4 i ec 1bly expressed by pa Collacutt, Keith Carter, Hodgson, John Jackson, Allen Levi- att, Jack McLaughlin, Alex, J.

O'Neill Gives Address on "This V Hour" Principal A, E. O'Neill, of the Osh- awa Collegiate and Vocational Insti- tute, was given a warm welcome to Lindsay yesterday, when he address- ed the Lindsay Kiwanis Club, Prin- cipal O'Neill is an old Lindsay boy, having been born and had his early education there, and having been a teach on the staff of the Lindsay Col- legiate Institute. His address was on the subject, "This Very Hour," and dealt with the economic, social and financial problems of the present age, the speaker seeking, from his knowl- edge of history to find analogies in the past and guidance for the fu- ture, Mr, O'Neill pointed out the inevit- able trend of the age towards mech- anical processes which would provide men with more leisure, This, he said, called for a new viewpoint regarding the use of leisure time, if this coun- try would escape the evils which at- tended other nations which became too prosperous. He contended that service and the creative instincts would have to become part of the educative processes of the future, ra- ther than merely means of earning a living, if the use of leisure time were to be wisely directed. Mr, O'Neill also called on his audience to face the naked truth, not only to find a satisfactory solution for the present preblems, but to delve 'more deeply into them and find a solution which would be more or less permanent. His address was a highly interesting and instructive one, and was receiv- ed with generous thanks by the Lind- say Kiwanians, BUMPER RIDERS' SENTENCED T0 JAIL BY LOCAL COURT Chicago Colored Boys Tra- velled From Montreal to Oshawa on Engine Tender Three men were taken off passeng- er 'trains at the local station of the Canadian National Railways early this morning, All three were charg- ed with unlawfully being on the trains with intent to fraudulently Road Trick Announces Business Expansion A Ab bd ol H.

The Rosser brothers, colored boys, stated that they had come from Chi- cago to Montreal about two months ago and had stayed with cousins in the hope of getting jobs. They were unable to obtain anything to do so decided to return home and as they had no money they mounted the ten- der of .a Toronto bound train and started for home, However, they were observed at Cobourg and as they refused to get off, a message was sent ahead to company, officers here, who took them off the train, The Rossers denied that they had been ordered off the train at Co- bourg.

ADDITIONAL FIRE PROTECTION FOR PT. PERRY WANTED Extension of Watermains Is Advocated Following Two Serious Fires The occurrence of two serious fires on the outskirts of Port Perry during the past two weeks has re- sulted in agitation for additional fire protection in he village. The Port Perry Star has taken up the question and in its issue of yester- day points out that "the Water- mains should be extended about five blocks, if anything like adequate tire protection is to be given to the outlying parts of the town." Four extensions of watermains are advocated and the Port Perry Star states that "It is thought that if these extensions were made, and the present hose system maintain. ed, all parts of the town would have reasonable fire protection," The cost of the main extensions is estimated at $4,000 while the purchase of a chemical fire engine is also recommended. Port Perry has had at least two disastrous experiences from fire and about half a century ago its business section was almost com- pletely destroyed, The thinking people of the community then strongly urged the purchase of a steam fire engine but no action was taken until about a year later a second fire occurred in the business section, wiping out stores and office buildings, JESUS SUFFICIENT FOR PROBLEMS OF WORLD PASTOR SAYS Large Number Attended Spe- cial Meeting in Simcoe United Church "And if 1 be lifted up I will draw all men unto me." Using these words of Jesus as his text, Rev. E. Harston urged his hearers to come to Jesus at the special evangelistic service held in Simcoe Street United Church last night, The meeting was one of the best attended in the series and the mes- sage of the nrinister was enjoyed by all present, Jesus never doubted the import- ance of his ministry and his as- sertions were strikingly bold, Rev. Harston declared, He was confl- dent that if the world would draw toward the cross of Christ that adequate solution would be found for many of the problems and ills which perplex people today. A fine tenor solo by Mr. John- ston, of Toronto, and a duet by Mr. R. MacDonald and Mr, John- ston, added much to the service, Tonight 1s family night, and as it is to be the last of the week day meetings, a large congregation is expected, BAGGED FOUR DEER A party of local deer hunters composed of Frank Johnston, C.

EXTENSION COURSE CLASS IS GIVEN SPLENDID LECTURE Prof. A. P. Coleman Des- cribes Two Summers Spent in Labrador Prof. A. P. Coleman, M.A,, M.8c., Ph.D, L.L.D., F.R.8.. of Toronto, addressed a large audience in the Genosha Hotel, last evening on the subject 'Two Summers With the Eskimos in Labrador," in a de- lightfully humorous and instruc- tive manner. From Toronto to Labrador is only 1,300 miles "as the crow flies," but from Toronto to Nova Scotia, across by ferry to Newfoundland, then north by boat is a long, arduous journey, In Newfoundland the people say "up south" and "down north," Nain is the capital of Labrador and has a population of 250, is the seat of the Moravian Bishop, and is dis- tinetive for having a park that the whole Labrador Coast is proud of. Okak has a population of 300 in- cluding more Eskimos than at any other settlement on the coast, The Professor told of his boat push- ing its way through the ice floes and arriving at Hebron. the last of the Moravian mission stations, on July 24, 1915, Here he slept in a typical German bedroom with porcelain stove and two feather beds, one being used for a cover- ing, He described the missions as enormous, barn-like structures, At Hebron the tallest tree was only a foot in height, while the num- ber of black flies and mosquitos would number, he thought, 10,- 000,000. He saw lettuce being grown under glass, but the only edibles being grown out of doors were rhubarb and turnips. Hebron is the last civilized place on the North American continent, the cliffs are about 2,000 feet high and together with the waterfalls present a magnificent sight. Nak- vak Bay has the finest fjord, fs about on a level with Stockholm, Sweden, and was the last point visited. Prof, Coleman has the distine- tion of having discovered the first glaciers in Labrador, three on the occasion of his highest mountain climb, a distance of 4,700 feet, and later, eleven more, He described the marvellous beauty of the fjords as viewed from the top of a moun- tain, the harpooning of seals, the houses of the Eskimos, these being dug into the sand with a dormer is Cheaper Now Would Cost Ten Cents Per Square Foot Less Than a Year Ago--Commission Will Meet Architect Again--No Definite Ac- tion Taken TEMPORARY MAINS TO BE REPLACED Requests For Gas Mains Not Dealt With--Demand Pay- ment of Local Factory's Gas Account The public utilities commission at its meeting last night entered into a discussion of the features needed in the building which the commission proposes to build for the housing of the offices of the city engineer and the various de- partments of commission which are now housed in quarters that are not of the hest, C. C. Stenhouse was present at the meeting and ex- plained the tentative plans that were submitted to the committee of the city council, Mr, Stenhouse stated that a building could be erected to-day at a cost of ten cents per square foot less than was possi~ ble a year ago, The building which he had in mind for the com~ mission would be 50 feet by 75 feet, with a floor space of 142,600 square feet, The building, he said, would be of reinforced concrete and would cost approximately $57,000 to erect, exclusive of furnishings, The commision discussed with Mr, Stenhouse some of the requirements that would be necessary in the huilding, The eommission, on ad- journing, agreed to meet Mr, Sten- house on November 21st, when the matter would be given further con- sideration, | The building would be erected on the north-west corner of Simcoe and Metcalfe streets. The commission moved that the request for the replacement of tems. porary water mains with six inch mains be made on Simcoe Street south, Roxborough venue . and Williams Street, City Engineer WW. C. Smith was present at the meeting and pointed out the need for the changes. The commission also authorized Mr, Smith to install a connection for city water service at the home of Willlam Vance, 287 St. Julian Street, It was resolved to leave over for the present the requests of HE.

He described the kyak, the popular boat used, as being lighter than a canoe, capable of being carried with one hand, covered with seal- skin and called it a marvellous work of art. The kyak cuts through the waves instead of go- ing over them and described the natives as going oui for whales in these little boats, He described the clothing of the Eskimo as con- sisting of sealskin boots, trousers and dicky (blouse) of blanket material with an outer covering of cotton, a hood, and sealskin sleeping bag. Eaidence submitted to the Dominion Tariff Board at Ottawa on the last day of October said-- "In the average Canadian house burn- ing nine tons of coal per season the heating plans would have to be more than ordinarily efficient to give more than the heat from 5; tons of coal actually available in the house.
