WAR MEMORIAL NEEDS REPAIRING Legion Asks the Town Council to Do the Work Representing the Whitby branch of the Canadian Legion, Joseph Wilson, the newly elected presi- dent, addressed the Council on Monday night asking that minor repairs be made to the war memo- rial on Dundas Street East. It ap- pears that the joints in the memo- rial base are spreading, requiring immediate attention. Mr. Wilson also asked Council to have the stone in the memorial cleaned. Mayor Bowman promised consider- ation of the request. Bert Johnston, manager of the girls' softball team, asked the Council to undertake certain im- provements to the diamond at the town park. He pointed out the girls softball team in the past year or two had proved a good advertise- ment to the town, bringing in out- side teams, and keeping up local interest in softball. He thought that the Council should encourage the younger players. Referred to the Property Committee. The Mayor promised an answer on May 2nd. Some clay and sand are re- quired on the diamond to keep it in shape during wet weather.

This decision was made by the Town Council on Monday evening, and a bylaw was passed accordingly. All citizens are asked to co-operate. Daylight saving has now been in effect in Whitby for many years, It is popular with sporting organiza tions, and with motorists and local professional and amateur tillers of the soil. Some merchants object to it on the ground that it interferes with their country trade, while many farmers are opposed to it who come to trade here. The Council, however, has felt for some years that the fast time must he put in force here on account of the fact that the town is situated between Toronto and Oshawa where it is also observed. At the Council meeting on Mon- day some members thought that «+ « cleans quicker LISTE Used 'round the world for a world of uses What Old Dutch Cleanser does to dirt, the whole world knows.

A conference of camp officials and citizens of the town was held, at which the question of retaining the camp in Whitby was thoroughly discussed, and the result was that assurance was given that no action to permanently close the camp or move it to another location would be taken until Whitby citi- zens were again consulted. At that conference Town officials, ministers, representatives of the press and several interested citizens expresseu a strong desire to have the camp remain in Whitby, and the United Church officers carrying on fresh air camp work expressed their appre- ciation of the kindly interest taken by the citizens of Whitby in the camp for many years, expressing a desire to have it remain in Whitby. On Wednesday afternoon of this week a deputation from Toronto | met in conference with local citizens in the United Church parlors, when the question of the camp remaining in Whitby was again discussed. The deputation was headed by Rev. Dr. T. W. Neal, former superintendent of city missions in Toronto, Oliver Hezzlewood, Miss Winnifrid Thom- as, head:of the United Church De- coness Board, and others, and the whole question was thoroughly gone . Neal made it plain that the had an open mind on he question, and stressed the fact | that the committee, appreciative 1 what the citizens of Whitby had | done for the camp in years gone by, | was anxious to carry on in Whitby if at all possible, He pointed out, however, that the present building was unfit for the work now being carried on and that hundreds of dollars would have to be extended to put it in shape to meet the Com- inittee's own requirements and those of the government. There was also the squestion of future expansion, which gpened up the question of securing more land. It was inti- mated that the camp of the future would be of the cabin type, and that { the old building might be used as { part of the camp unit. Land in | abundance was available at Lake and other sites had been | looked over. It was the opinion of the committee that if expansion was decided upon it would not be a good investmerit to spend a great sum of money on the present Luilding. However, Dr. Neal and others made it very plaimr that the committee was open for suggestions as to the camp's future from the citizens of Whitby. Reeve Jackson and several other citizens expressed their views, the keynote being that Whitby was anxious to retain the camp and help all it could towards that end. After further discussion it was decided to operate the camp here this summer as before. However, another conference will be held be- fore any action to close it up is taken, Committee | Scugog, DEATH OF JAMES McLEOD A very highly respected resi- dent of Port Whitby, in the per- son of James McLeod, died sud- denly at his home on Wednesday morning, Deceased, who was in his 71st year, had been in fail- ing health for two years He had lived in Port Whithy for about 10 years, Deceased was a staunch member of St. Andrew's Preshy- terian Church and a member of the Session.
