WARDEN IS GIVEN FINE GOLD WATCH BY COUNTY COUNCIL BUILDER OF CHURCH IN CHURCHILL T0 SPEAK IN OSHAWA Rev. Sam Martin, Noted Missionary, To Be Heard Sunday Night Oshawa is to have another interest- ing visitor on Sunday evening in the person of Rev, S. A. Martin, who will speak in Simcoe Street United hurch. His presence in the city should attract a large congregation, as he is widely known as a man with the true missionary spirit, When it was announced that a rail- way would be built to Hudson Bay, Rev. Martin accepted the challenge that the situation offered and offered himself as a missionary to work among the men who were working on the line, The task which he un- dertook involved keeping in touch with some two thousand men who were working on the railway line which extended for 510 miles. In or- der to do this he was forced to live as the men who were working on the line lived in the roughest of sur- roundings and make his way along the line by walking or riding on hand cars or what ever came along to aid him on his way. All this had to be carried on through the hardest and coldest months of the year while the ! winter was' at its height in the north, Wih the completion of the line into Churchill on *Hudson Bay in April 1929 a request was sent in to the Home Mission Board of the United Church, for material for the erection of a church building. This edifice was completed in June of the same vear. Since that time the building has served as one of the most im- portant of the outposts of the mis- sionary work of the church. The amount of good that has been done by Rev, Martin on his field is inestimable, as he comes in contact toh. | with men who otherwise would nev- James Read, of Mara, High | er have the privilege of hearing the ly Honored at Closing Session By Whitby Staff Writer) With, Nov. 22,--Wardep James Read, reeve of Mara Town- ship, was on Friday evening just before the close of Ontario County Council November session, present- ed with (a handsome gold watch and an address by his colleagues, as a token of esteem and of ap- preciation of his service to the county during his term of office Reeve Albert W.

Warden Replies The singing of "For He's a Jol- ly Good Fellow" greeted the war- den as he rose to respond, Deeply moved, he thanked his colleagues for the kind reference made to him in the addresd, and for the beauti- ful gift which accompanied it. He had enjoyed his term of office, which he had tried to fill to the best of his ability, He appreciated the advice and assistance he had received from members of the Council and County officials, All seemed anxious and always will ing to co-operate with him Fine Perfo Collegiate Staff Players Gave rmance Last Night Playing to a large and delighted audience, the staff players of the Oshawa Collegiate and Vocati Institute last night gave a perform- ance, in their presentation of three one-act plays, each entirely different from the other in character, each requiring skilful and careful charac- terization and interpretation, and each presented in such a way as to draw forth the highest praise from all who saw them. The players who took part all showed excellent dramatic ability, This was particularly apparent in the presentation of the serond or the one-act plays, "Allison's Lad," a play with an all-male cast and de- picting a tense scene of the days of the civil war between Cromwell's Roundheads and the Royalists. E, J. McGirr, as Col. Sir William Strick- land, and Jack Henley, as Tom Win- wood, a gentleman volunteer, who pays with his life the penalty for a broken parole, were the outstanding characters in this play, and their parts, calling for Intense emotional- ism, were splendidly taken, They were well supported by the others in the caste, and this play, the serious one of the three, stood out gs an exceptionally fine presentation, The two comedies were of different types and both were thoroughly en- joyed by the audience. In all their work, the principals showed the evi- dence of careful training and of in- tensive study of the roles assigned to them and the Collegiate Staff Players can feel satisfied that not only were their efforts greatly ap- preciated, but that they were made the subject of many complimentary remarks of the highest ordtr from those who were present, Mention should also be made of the music supplied by the Collegiate and Vocational Institute Orchestra, which gave generously of its' talent in the course of the evening, and added new laurels to its own repu- tation and to the reputation of Leo- nard Richer, as a director of music, Mr. McKenzie, the director, was extended appreciation for his work and the compliments of those who worked with him, at a social that took place at the conclusion of the performance last evening, when the cast and a number of friends were present, Mr, Mcleod, president of the Staff Players also spoke at the informal gathering last evening, And Wareh Service Station on King Street West Adjoining Oshawa Creek SECURE LEASE ON KOHEN PROPERTY Warehouse and Second Ser- vice Station to be Located at Richmond and Ontario Streets--Tom Muffitt to Be Local Manager Oshawa is to have a new gasoline service station and a wholesale oil and gasoline depot, according to an- nouncement made today by the Re, gent Oil Co, The new company has purchased property on the south side of King Street west, between the Oshawa creek and the right-of-way leading into the Oshawa arena and plans to erect a modern and hand- some service station at this point. The company has also leased from Nathaniel Kohen the service station and building at the north-west cor- ner of Ontario street and Richmond street east, The building, which is 50 feet by 50 feet and is served by a siding from the Oshawa Railway Co, will be used as a warehouse while the service station, formerly operated by Mr. Kohen, will be con- tinued by the company thus giving it two retail outlets and one whole- sale outlet here, Tom Muffit, prominent local busi- ness man, has become interested in the company and is to be manage: of the Oshawa division, which in- cludes the territory between Toronto and Port Hope. In discussing the company's project with The Times today, Mr. Muffitt pointed out that Oshawa investors have secured the controlling interest in the stock of the Oshawa unit, In order to protect the new service station trom possible damage by the creck, a concrete retaining wall is bee ing constructed on the west bank.

Among the more beautiful numbers on the pro- gram are to he found Machmaninofi's brilliant "Thanksgiving Triumph" Gretchaninoff, "Cherubic Hymn" and "The Nicene Creed" and Gal- braith's "Dear Lord and Father of Mankind" These are perhaps the most brilliant numbers on a well bal- anced program in which English com- posers of sacred music represented in many numbers. Such well known names as Neelye Gill, soprano, Florence Fenton-Box, contralto, Lorne Davidson, tenor and Austin Douglas, bass appear among the names of the soloists in the pro- MID-NITE SHOWS Splendid Contribution to be Made to Welfare So- cieties' Fund "Cheer up and Smile." This is the name of a show but it is also a command and one which was readily obeyed at the mid-nite performance given in both the New Martin and Regent theatres last night for the The warden had a good word for County Road Superintendent, D. J. Kean, The amount of work he was doing for the county had been a revelation to him, He was out all hours of the night on many occasions on the county's business and was in his opinion a valuable and painstaking servant of the county. There had been some criticism during the year, This he welcomed at all times provided it was con- structive. Too often, however, it was destructive and accomplished nothing In closing the warden again ex- pressed his thanks and expressed the hope that all members would gram, No doubt St. Andrew's will be packed to hear this talented or- ganization just as their own church is packed each Sunday, Oshawa is indeed fortunate to be favored with a visit from a choir of the merit of Yorkminster Choir, benefit of the welfare fund, There was a full house at both theatyes and the Fox movietone feature was 80 replete with funny situations, thrilling moments and snappy music 'that no one could help but cheer up and smile, The bill was the same at both theatres and was arranged by switching the films. In adition to the feature a couple of side-splitting comedies and a newsreel were shown. As the result of the initiative of the Oshawa film projectionists, plus the co-operation of the theatres, the staffs and others, a splendid contribution will he made to the work of the Associated Welfare So. cleties, CHECKER CLUB MEET Members of the Oshawa Checker Club. will hold a meeting in the Liberal Club rooms on Wednesday next at eight o'clock in the even- ing. All members are requested to be back again next year.' attend this meeting when the elec- tion of officers will take place, REGISTRY OFFICE ADDITION TO COST OSHAWA $7,146.26 Connty Will Pay $10,719.38 ~-- Provincial Inspector Makes Order (By Whitby Staff Writer) According to a decision of the Inspector of legal offices, the coun- ty of Ontario will pay three-fifths of the cost of the new addition and other recent repairs to the county registry office. The total bill is $17,865.64, which includes interest. The committee on finance in a report brought in by Reeve Clay- ton, of Thorah, chairman, Friday morning, recommended that the inspector's findings be adopted. The County's share will be 410,719.38, while Oshawa will pay $7.146.26, The addition to the Registry office was built by the County on the order of the Provincial In- spector of Legal Offices. The clerk was instructed to for- ward to the city of Oshawa a statement showing the entire cost of the Registry Office addition. The Fnance Committee recom- mended the payment of several ac- counts, Given Annual Grant The committee on Education brought in a report recommending that the annual agricultural grant of $500 be made to Port Perry High School. Reeve Jackson, Whithy, asked about Whitby's grant of the same | amount. The committee chairman, Mr. Chapman, of Pickering, replied that this grant was passed in June, but was not payable until December, so the cheque had becn held up. A CORRECTION There is evidently misunder- standing with regards to the fire that destroyed tha.home of Norman Walters at Courtice on Thursday night and which was reported in yesterday's Times, The Times' in- formant stated in making his re- port that the house was unoccupied which was true in one sense and untrue in another. The house was actually unoccupied at the time of the fire, the occupant being at his nnele's home, Relatives stated however, that Mr Walters was still ~esiding at the house previous to the fire and that the house was not really an unoccupied house, Mr. Walters lost all of his clothing and store of winter supplies in the fire which completely guted the build- ing. While playing with other chil dren in a field, the four-year-old son of Edward Phillips of Ballymartin, Ireland, was wounded in the eye by a rusted scythe blade, and the injury proved fatal.
