LEASK FAMILY HAS ANNUAL PICNIC Descendants of | Peter Leask Gather at Lakeview Park Over one hundred members of the Leask family from various places around Oshawa gathered at Lakeview Park yesterday af- ternoon for the annual family picnic. Both children and grown ups enjoyed the ocsasion which afforded them an opportunity of seeing those members of the family with whom they are not in close touch ordinarily. Two very important personages seen about the picnic grounds during the day and to whom much atten- tion was paid were Mrs, David Leask of Uxbridge, and James Leask of Taunton. Mrs. Leask who is eighty-five years of age is the oldest member of the Leask family, Mr. Leask of Taunton 1s eighty-three years old. Donald Leask, of Toronto, sec- retary of the picnic committee for this year was kept very busy when the races and' sports were being staged, He managed the entire programme with great success. James Leask, of Port Perry, is to be succeeded as president of the executive, this year by Albert E. Dobson of Ux- bridge. The election took place when all were gathered around the family supper table. His committee will be composed of T, C. Leask of Leaskdale as secre- tary and James Beaton of Black- water as treasurer, Those who attended this happy family gathering came from Toronto, .Uxbridge, Green bank, Seagrave, Dlackwater, Oshawa, Leaskdale, Hampton, Pontypool and Cressville, The Leask family assembled at the Park yesterday, are all descendants of Peter Leask who came to this country from Scot- land and settled near Uxbridge. He was the grandfather. of the oldest members of the family who are living now. The Leasks have been well known in this section of the country as very . successful farmers, and their name has been associated with some of the largest stock raisers in Ontario. The sports committee elected for next year includes as its mem- bers: Seymour Leask and B. Kes- sick, Toronto. The following names were chosen for the table ald Leask, Toronto; Mrs, Elmer Wilbur, Mrs, Frank Thompson, Taunton. PARTY IN HONOR OF CHIEF FRIEND (} Chief Owen D. Friend was the guest of honor at a party given at Hunters Point, Harwood, on Rice Lake, on Saturday evening, The Chief was celebrating his birthday that day at his summer camp, and the party arranged by a number of his friends from Oshawa, was a real surprise to him. Two others whose birthdays fell on the same date and who were included as guests of honor were Mr. Conkey of Har- wood, and Miss Lenore Baker, of Whitby. There were eighty-five campers when all gathered around the huge bonfire. A truly import- ant feature of the evening was the presentation of gifts to cach of the three who were celebrating their birthday. Roasting corn and mak- ing coffec afforded much fun. The Bassett's Jn Oshawa's Main Corner Santpers called upon tp render some little ber as a contribution to a very jolly programme responded readily adding much to the enter- tainment, Master Teddv Morgan, played drum selections, Mrs. Evans and Mrs. F. Branton, of Oshawa, took part in a dialogue, Mrs. O, D, Friend sang a solo, Mr. McKim and Mr. J. 'Poulter, of Oshawa, also sang solos, The Hunters' 'Point Quartstte composed of O, D. Friend, .

FARMER BROWN'S BOY SEES CLOUD KING So live that others, too may live, And no offense to others give. Stumpy had stood with watch- ful eyes and gun ready while Farmer Brown's Boy had photo- graphed Puma the Mountain Lion high ir a tree into which Dogs had driven him, Farmer Brown's Boy had climbed a neigh- boring tree. When he came down Stumpy raised his gun. 'What are you going to dao?" cried Farmer Brown's Boy. "Shoot that varmint," replied Stumpy shortly. But Farmer Brown's Boy would have none of this. 'He hasn't done us any harm, so why kill him? I never will enjoy these WHAT NEW YORK IS WEARING SIMPLE AS FRENCH CHIC Demand and Practical Too By Annette Mother will welcome this cute model as well as tiny daughter.

They show him alive and I want always to think of him as I looked across at him from that tree, and I couldn't do that if he is killed," he pleaded. Stumpy hesitated and looked across to Coupsin Tom. 'Better let him off this time, Stumpy," said the young man. "The boy will feel better. As he said, the Cat hasn't done us any harm and he won't because we are going back to the ranch in the morn- ing." "But the critter is a varmint," protested Stumpy. He grumbled, Lut he put up his gun and they made their way back to the hors. er, the Dogs following reluctantly, This was a new order of things and they couldn't understand it all. Never before had they treed a Lion that it had not been kill- ed. Early the next morning the start for the ranch was made, Cousin Tom explained that their visit was at an end, for the time had come for them to continue their journey to the Pacific Coast. "Aren't we going back to the desert?" inquired Farmer Brown's Boy with a hint of disappogint- ment in his voice. 'Not at present, anyway," re- plied Cousin Tom. "We are going over the mountains and into Cali- fornia and you'll have a chance to see things that will make you forget all you have already seen." Farmer Brown's Boy shock his head. "I couldn't forget,' said he. "I'll never forget." So on the day following they were once more in the air, Cous- in Tom, Marmer Brown's Boy and Fiip the Terrier. It was an ex- perience never to be forgotten, that crossing of the mountain, now in the clouds, now above them and again with the moun- tains seeming to shut them in on all sides as Cousin Tom sought the pass that would. let them through. For hours they aad seen no living creature and among the bare, rocky peaks nut even a tree. Then as they crossed over the pass and came out on the other side Farmer Brown's Boy caught sight of a speck quite as high as they were. "I. wonder if that can be King Eagle," he thought. It rapidly grew Cousin' Tom was pointing the plane in its direction. ** It soars like Ol" Mistuh Buzzard," thought Farmer Brown's Boy, "but it locks too big for him, and it cer- tainly is too big for King Eagle. My, my, what wings!" bd Just then Cousin Tom shut the motor off and they glided, "Do you see that fellow?" asked le "Of course I see him," repliad Farmer Brown's Boy. "He can get such a wing spread that I almost mistook him for another rlane. I didn't expect to see any bird as high as this. He looks like a Vulture, but I never heard of any of OI' Mistah Buzzard's family as big as this fellow." "It is Cloud King the Condor," replied Cousin Tom. You may have a chance to learn more ahout him later. He gave the airghip the gun, as starting thc engine is called, and there was po chance for further talk. (Copyright, 1931, T. W.

Matthew Can- ning, who single handed cleaned up one of the worst gang centres in Chicago, for the "vicious circle" of beer flats, gin drinking and gang killings, One week there were 12 murders in his parish. The Church of St. Charles Barromeo stand at Roosevelt Rd. and Cypress Sts, Chicago, In an interview, Father Can- ning told how he conducted his anti-crime campaign, after find- ing one of his boys dying in the gutter from a bullet wound. "I used to sit in my study at night" he said. 'I'd hear the crack of pistols down Cypress St. Up Roosevelt Rd. would zoom a stolen car. Perhaps a girl in it would be screaming. "Almost across the street my boys and girls would stagger out of a beer flat drunk. Children would play in the alleys until two and three o'clock in the morn- ing, first hand how to be crim- inals, There were 12 murders in one week. And then one night I found one of my bo¥s in a gut. ter, with his life's blood flowing out of a bullet-hole in his back. "I vowed then that, God help- ing me, I would do my best to clean up my parish. "And so, with kindness, gentle- ness and determination in my own heart, I went out. I was re- spected in the 'Joints,' the speak- easies, the beer flats and the brothels, because of the church and . perhaps because the boys had heard of me as an amateur boxer and knew I was handy with my fists. "But I didn't have to use my fists. ¥ love these people and I'm sure they love me. They know I'm fighting for them and not against them. "My war in this section now is against the beer flats and Visitors to the Convention, Take Home a Kenwooll Double Reversible Blankets, Double Single KENWOOD B LANKETS Will Last a Life-time Note the New Low Prices Solid Color Blanket, Single ........$8.00 cesses 9.50 sesesees 9.00 sesssses 11,00 Art Blankets Single ..esssse000000.10.00 Double ssesssessrnress Baby Blankets ..ccewsyesssssssssees 475 "Guaranteed Absolutely Unshrinkable" : Authorized Representatives they are legion.
