ORMISTON 'STAND FAST IS CANON CODY'S TIMELY ADVICE Inspiring Address Given at Chamber of Commerce Banquet That Canada, adopting at this time the watchword, "Stang Fast,' can face the future with contld- ence and hope, growing out of a faith not divorced from works, was the keynote of a most inspir- ng and timely message delivered by the Honorable and Rev. Canon H. J. Cody, D.D,, at 4 banquet held by the Whitby Chamber of Com- merce in the Town Hall Friday svening, and to which were invited members of Oshawa City Council 'and Chamber of Commerce, Canon Cody spoke of the pres- ent depression which was manifest In Canada as in other countries but not to so large an extent; outlined tome of the causes of present world conditions and steps that must inevitably be taken to rectify them; touched on Canada's oppor- tunities for recovery and for mater fal, intellectual and spiritual de- velopment, and stressed that fact that these existed before the days of the war, before the depression, were present today and would be in the future, Profiting from past experiences, passing through these times which tried men's souls. but opened their eyes, and inspired with the spirit of self sacritice and faith of the ploneers, Canada would, he belleved, emerge from the present depression and achieve greater things, Cannot Fail "I cannot think that we are going to fail," said the speaker, as he pointed out that Canadians were of good stock, that the pilon- eers overcame great difficulties, aplenty, none the least of which and that there were lessons was that work was a great deal etter than speculation, from which Canadians might profit. Canon Cody declared that Caunda still possessed the fundamental ele- ments for the building up of a worthy civilization, for the mak- ing of a greater nationhood and the achievement of material in- tellectual and spiritual success and for the development of a greater spirit of fellowship by the bearing of one another's burdens, Much depended, however, on how these elements were made use of. He believed that hope, faith and courage, also inspiration of the pioneers, would be potent factors in their ultimtimate fulfillment. A Great Success The banquet wsas one of the most successful and unique events of its kind ever staged in the county town, and its influence should In the future prove far reaching. Seated at the head table with Canon Cody were President F. H. M. Irwin, of Whitby Cham- ber. of Commerce, Mayor QO. KL. Bowman, Whitby; guests from Oshawa, local Chamber of Com- merce officers, local clergy and Jress representatives, and visitors (rom places in the district, Dur- ng the banquet, a most sumptuous and highly appetizing atfair, which was served by the ladies of wae Women's Institute, music was supplied by Clarke's orchestra of Whitby which all appreciated. Vocal numbers were given by Town Clerk and Treasurer John R. Frost and Mrs, Peter N, Spratt, and instrumental numbers by Mrs. A, BE. Kearney. W, A, Dewland led in community singing with Mrs. Kearney at the plano. Welcome to Visitors . .. The address of welcome to the visitors was delivered by Mayor C. KE. Bowman, who spoke of the high honor to Whitby represented in the visit of so distinguished a man asi Canon Cody. Mayor Bowman very heartily welcomed the visitors from "Oshawa, stressing that 'Osh- awa and Whitby had much in com- mon. When Oshawa industries were busy Whitby benefited. In many ways one municipality could help the other. He pleaded for a better understanding and greater spirit of friendliness and fellow- ship between Whithy and Oshawa, and assured the Motor City visit- ors that Whitby Chamber of Com- merce stood ready at all times to co-operate with them, Alderman Macdonatd replied on behaltl of Oshawa City in the un- ayoldable absence of Mayor Ernest Marks, The alderman thanked Mayor Bowman for his kind refer ences to Oshawa, and for the in vitation extended to him and his associates to attend this banquet. He believed that both municipali- ties had much in common, that one profited from the growth of the other, and he had a vision that some day both would be more closely joined with the annexation of Westmount than they are to- day. Pedge Co-Operation ¥F. L. Mason and Cot. McCormick spoke on behalt of the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce, the form- er in place of George W. McLaugh- lin and Col, McCormick for Presi- dent Gordon D. Conant, who, it was explained, had intended to be present but had been prevented from so doing. Both Mr, Mason and the Oshawa Chamber of Com- merce secretary gave brief but timely and most #cceptable mes sages, and assured Whitby of 'Osh- awa's interest and desire to co- operate in every way towards the county town's development.

ROAD COMMISSION APPOINTED BY COUNTY COUNCIL (By Staff Reporter) In accordance with a new section of the Municipal Act, the county council at {its session yesterday passed a by-law to appoint the coun- tv. road commission for the year. The commission, which is made up of three members, namely, A. W. Jackson, G. Luther Middleton and John Morris were appointed as fol- lows, Mr. Jackson for, one year, Mr. Middleton for two years and Mr. Morris for three years. Some objection was raised in the Counefl due to the fact that members of the 'commission were appointed for terms longer than one year. It was pointed out, however, that the pro- cedure taken in the appointment of the personell of the commission was according to the statute. It was also pointed out that in the County of York there were members of the roads commission who were not members of the council, This ac- COURT RECORDS CONVICTIONS ON CHARGE OF THEFT In 'the County Judge's Criminm court at Whitby on Thursday, Us wald Love, of the Township of Reach, was charged before His Hon- or Judge R. Ruddy with the theft of cattle, under section 369 of the Criminal Code of Canada, said cat- tle alleged to have been the pro- perty of R. Camplin, of Reach. He pleaded not guilty. The Crown, through Crown At- torney J. A. McGibbon, placed a number of witnesses in the box, while a representative of the legal firm of Gurofsky & Company, To- ronto, called witnesses for the de- fense. After hearing all of the evidence His Honor Judge Ruddy found the accused guilty of the offense charged, and = postponed sentence until ten o'clock on Friday morning. In the afternoon a,second charge of the theft of a sow, valued at over $20.00 was preferred against Os- wald Love, the charge being laid un- der section 370 of the Criminal Code of Canada. The accused pleaa- ed not guilty. Evidence was heard, but the case was not concluded at six o'clock and the court adjourned until 10.30 Friday morning, when evidence for the defense will be pro- duced, Mr, Guarofsky failed in a motion before His Honor to have the charge against his client dis- missed on certain legal grounds without calling the defense. The Court held that the Crown had pro duced sufficient evidence to warrant the production of the defense wit- nesses. One of the principal erown wi nesses in this case was Clifford Love, brother of the accused, who was in the witness box'for well over an hour and was subjected to a stiff cross-examination by counsel for the aceused. On Friday the case of the King vs. Tait, in which accused is charg ed with recelving stolen goods, will be heard. It i& contended by the Crown that the sow alleged to have been stolen by Oswald Love was found by police officers buried on the Tait farm. cleared up the doubt which had ex- fisted in the minds of the council as to what would happen if members of the commission appointed for more than one year were defeated at the next municipal eléctions. With the passing of the by-law for the appointment of the commis sloners, the rates of remuneration to bo pald the members was also fixed, They will receive $6 per day and 10 cents per mile one way while in the course of their duties, ----- -- In Memoriam SWITHENBANK-~In loving mem- ory: of our dear mother, Ann Swithenbank, who passed away Jau. 31, 1928, We miss her help, her cheery ways, With her we spent our happlest ' days, We miss her when we need a friend, Resting those hands that did their best, On her we always, could depend, Gone, dear mother, gone to rest.
