THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, MAY 2, 1932 A PAGE THREE Bowmanville G. K. BROWN, Daily Times Representative Office Telephone No. 744 ) TRINITY CHURCH FARMERS SERVICE "Agricultural Sunday" Was Made Occasion of Special Message Agricultural Sunday was feat- ore Trinity United Church when the pastor, Rev. E. F. Armstrong choose texts in keep- ing with the day. At the morn- ing service he chose Mat. 4:4, Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceed- eth out of the mouth of God, as the basis for the theme of his sermon the title of which was "Spiritual Vitimins." He men~ tioned that scientists had classi- fied the various vitimins in food, and stated that If man eat only bread they would in time be poisoned. Some foods God made, some foods man made, but food alone was not sufficient for the development of a soul, The spiritual vitimins are those that are taken in through the eve-- beauty, color, light; through the ear--harmony, voices, music; through the hand--sympathy, fellowship, encouragement, and these are summed in the three great spiritual vitimins, faith, love and hope. Musical numbers were given by Miss Plummer and the choir of forty voices under the direction of Mr, Sut- n, to the evening the Junfor Tn- stityte and Junior Farmers were guests of the congregation and thirty members occupied the choir seats and provided the music, contributing three num- bers during the service, The sub- ject for the evening was "Plow- ed Furrows," the text for the germon being taken from Luke 9:62, No man, having put his hand to the 'olpw, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God. The speaker likened the plowing of a furrow to the jour- ney through life and drew paral- lels therefrom. He gave examples of outstanding men who had plowed their furrow and gave to the world and mankind much for their spiritual advancement and our Saviour who plowed the fur- row to the cross and said "It is finished." In closing he appealed to the young people to fit them- selves for this journey through life, that they might plow a good furrow to the finish and be among those who will hear "The well done, thou good and faith- ful." PRIZES GIVEN FOR EMPTY TIN GANS Theatre Co-operates Unique Form of Clean- up Campaign Cans to the rignt or them; cans to the left of them; cans in front, behind, on top and underncath them, rode and strode the noble sons and daughters of Bowman- ville's citizens as they came irom all directions to the Royal Theatre Saturday forenoon, when the first gun wag fired in the municipal clean-up campaign--and it went off with a bang. Wee tots, bigger tots, youths and maidens, started to ga- ther shortly atter 9.00 and by 10.30, the opening hour set by manager C. 'I. Ross, of the Royal Theatre, there was a medley of voices mingled with the stacatto notes of tinware that had any midway beat forty ways. Every school boy or zirl who came with 25 tin cans on a string or wire were given free admission to the theatre, but as an incentive for the children to make a good clean up, Mr, Ross offcred special prizes for the boys and girls bringing iu the most cans, The first prize was awarded to Dick Campbell who trotted in 558 cans and John Gra- ham received the second prize for hauling 400 cans to the theatre, The prizes were admission tickets to the theatre, The prizes tor the girls were awarded to Marion Davies with 300 cans and to Irene Shotter who had 50 cans. There were up- wards of five hundred children who came with their cans, some on strings, some in boxes, in small wagons and even wheel-barrows piled high and it was well after 11 o'clock before the last of the tin can parade arrived. It was estimated that there were between thirteen and fifteen thousand cans and it made quite a respectable pile al- though not a respectable sight and represented quite a few dollars spent by Bowmanville"s housewives, Manager Ross had secured a special feature for the entertainment of the children at the theatre. Bowman- ville's clean-up, paint-up week is from May 2 to May 7th and in con- nection with it the Business Men's Association are offering prizes for the best letters on "Why Paint Up and Clean Up?" : i Does your work require clo AE ih Entiat You ay C.

The evening before, Mr, North- cutt had started a fire in the living room grate and everything was alright when they retired for the night, but they were awakened in the morning with smoke in the apartment, A hur- ried investigation showed that smoke was issuing from the floor near the grate and an alarm" was sent in to the tire dept. The firemen were forced to take up some of the flooring to get at the smouldering wood, which evidently had _ become {ignited from the fire in the grate, Out- side of the torn-up floor no other loss was occasioned by the fire.

McKee, Melville, Sask., acknowledging with deep appreciation the gift of hymn books and library hooks from the 'Bowmanville congrega- tion, recently received. WHAT OTHERS SAY KIDNAPPING OF ANIMALS Editor, The Oshawa Daily Times. _ Dear Sir: In a recent issue of the Toronto Daily Star, a John Curtis made a statement he had lost his good job of supplying cats and dogs to the Toronto University for ex- perimental purposes, because a dog dealer in Oshawa sold him a stolen dog and there wag trouble over it, He also states he has been buying dogs for a long time from this man, Now where docs this man get his dogs. I would like to know, He does not raise.dogs and [ am posi- tive the people of Oshawa would not dispose of their dogs for that purpose, and every one knows the business he is in, When he took that much talked of stolen dog to Toronto he was surc once it passed through the barred doors of the University it would never come back, They never do. But that time he did not reckon who he was dealing with, When I could not get action here I got it througli the un- tiring efforts and co-operation of John McNab Wilson, of the Toron- to Humane Society, and 1 presuinc this man wag astonished when he heard this dog did come back. Then he had to admit he had bought the dogs from two boys and taken it to Toronto. The Almighty works in a strange way| He allowed this man to carry on for a long timé, then he sud- denly put a stop to his activities, and I'am going to make every effort to stop them. I am going to take this to Ottawa and see if this sort of thing is to be tolerated. To my mind a person that steals or re- ceives stolen dogs and sells them is in the same category as a kidnap- per. Apparently there is a future in this diabolical business. This man Curtis has averaged nine or ten thousand dollars a year blind money and he has the nerve to say he is a lover of animals. The sad part of this is easy money, no matter what suffering the result, and there must be drastic steps taken to pre- 'vent a repetition of this practice. I have heard indirectly there are two men here shipping dogs and cats to Kingston University, so I warn dog lovers to use every pre- caution, also cat lovers to protect their animals from these vampires, Yours truly, MRS, E. B. GRIGG, 164 Alice St. May Move Plant .

Then, through the I.egion, he applied for pension. Twice hig claim was refused by the Board of Pension Commis- sion-, Then it was referred to the pension tribunal, and on Thursday, April 14, it was heard in Centre Street School. On the following morning, the decision of the tribunal, granting him a pension, was given, But it was too late to bring any solace to Gunner Hewitt, for he had pass- ed away on the previous evening. At that time, the commission counsel representing the board at the hearing sald there would be no appeal. But he was not the sapreme authority in that re- spect, The Board of Pensions Commissioners had the final word to say respecting appeal, and its verdict was received, So the little home on John Street has once again been plung- ed into gloom, a gloom which will not be dispelled until, some time in the uncertain future, the pen- sion appeal court sits on the case and "ives its decision, And what that decision will be, no- body knows. Announcement Basil Broder wishes to an- nounce that he has concluded his classes in French here for the season, Mr. Broder sincerely hopes that his pupils bave enjoy- ed their lesson with him, and he announces that he will be in Osh- awa next season, to commence teaching in October and to con- tinue until April, There will be classes for both children and adults.

The Reds showed little resistance and no escort was made to molest the police or take a prisoner away from them. Civic officials, as well as citi- zeng in general, warmly com- mended Chief Coulter and his of- ficers and men for the capable manner in which they controlled what was admitted: to have heen a dangerous situation, Fire Chief James and his officers and men also were praised for their valu- able assistance, They proved splendid alli~s of the police, There was a total of 270 policemen, spe- cial constables and plainclothes- men on duty at the park. No fur- ther trouble is looked for today, a8 most of the alleged gingleaders of the local Communists either have been arrested or their ardor for the cause has cooled after the impressive conduct of Lhe police yesterday afternoon, Trouble at Sudbury Sudbury, May 2.--Citizeng and Communists clashed here Sunday afternoon in the most serious May Day disturbances Sudbury has known, Eighteen alleged Communists are in the police cells, while a number of citizens who attempted to break up the Communist parade before the po- lice arrived are nursing cracked heads and other injuries. Most of the injuries were re- ceived from flying rocks with which Communist - sympathizers borhbarded the crowd, while oth- ers were struck by Reds, who laid about them with the handles of their banners. The clash between citizens and Communists resulted Irom the refusal of the Reds to carry the Union Jack at the head of their parade,, in conformity with a civic by-law: Among the casualties are Mayor Peter Fenton, who was struck on the head with a rock, and knock- ed down after leaping from his car to assist Sergeant Leo Cam- peau of the municipal police force, who had been knocked semi-conscious with a rock, and was being kicked and beaten as he lay on the street, Just as Ma- yor Fenton struck one of Ger. geant Campeau's assailants with his fist, he was hit #n the head with a rock.

Toronto Was Quiet Toronto, May .--With a dem- onstration at Queen's Park no more eventful than a big spring fashion parade, a stormy meet- ing of labor men at their Lyceum, and here and there a brush with the police, May Day was observed in Toronto yesterday with noth- ing of the disturbances admitted- J expected by local police author- Thirteen persons--three of them womeén-- were arrested dur- ing the day, the greater number in the demonstration in and around.

Fach time Mr. Montrealer and his family moves, McGill 1ib- rarvians explained, there is a gen- era! culling of the home library and it occasionally happens that one or more works are not want- ed in the new home. Hence a call to the library which fs qute willing to add to its collection at no cost. Sometimes a "Find" Once in a long time the univer- sity librarians come across a real "find." For instance there was one family which enriched the libiary with a valuable folio of Shakespeare, The appearance of the follo so disguised - its real worth that it was some time ve- fore even the librarians recogniz- ed the value of the battered hook. In the main, the moving day occessions are a very mixed® lot of books. Sets of volumes are valuable to the university for re- placements, these sets often con- sisting of historical, biographi- cal or other works of an educa- tinnal nature, Nothing, however, is refused, for there is always the hope that someday Mr, Citizen will discard something that may be little val- ue to him but what has long been wanted by library officials, POSTMASTER SERVES COVE FOR 69 YEARS Peggy's Cove, N.S. -- Wesley Crooks, 93, received congratula- tions from Postmaster-General Sauve and Hon.

" DEBTER TELLS OF INABILITY TO PAY London.--Presiding oyer the an- nual meeting of the Hudson's Bay Company, Governor Sir Ashley Cooper read a letter to the company from a Canadian farmer which the governor described as representing tensely and tragically, though with- out humor, the position of amny a Canadian farmer today. The letter said: "I got your letter about what I owe, Now be pachant. I ain't forgot you. Please wait. When I have the money I will pay you. If this was the Judgment id and you was no more prepared to meet your Maker than I am to meet your account you sure would have to go to hell, Trusting you will do this." . The meeting adopted the annual report and accounts, and the gov- ernor expressed confidence that work on the restoration of the coms {it . was ONT, REGIMENT HOLDS ITS ANNUAL CHURCH PARADE (Continued from page 1) ing in the whole Book telling as it did of the dangers through which the Apostle Paul passed while being taken to prison in Rome, the rector said and continued to give a spiritu- al interpretation of the passage. Taking as an example the last race between Sir Thomas Lipton' yacht, Shamrock, and the America, Rev. Jarrett, stated that in the race it was the setting of the sails and not the weather conditions that de- cided the issue. It was the result of adverse gales being brought to advantage, In a like manner gto ships at sea was the human rac who in life found that there was no turning back from the final re- sult. Just as a ship sets its sails for a voyage, so does the human race on the sea of lite, The setting their sails bv the human race determined their future destines, opined the minister, Just as to the sailor, water is not his permanent abode, so to man ig the world in which he lives. His final goal and haven being Heaven toward which Jesus Christ the pilot of the human race guides the lives of all and bids them hoist their sails to attain the haven of rest, Life never was meant to be nor will it be free of struggles, the minister asserted, Winds from every point of the compass bring all the varying conditions of life itself so that the duty of the human race is to see that the adversities which beset do not overcome. In- stead they should serve to further the purpose man. 1s aiming to attain, At times there were no winds in the life of the man had any effect on his destiny at those times that hould be taken not i lessly with no set purpose in view It is the man who aims high that reaches heights beyond the ken of other men, Rev. Jarrett asserted, Great Britain had set a great ex- unple to the world by recovering rom adversity by ¢mploying sheer grit and determin mm. It was an example which n t well be fol- lowed by all mankind, In conclusion, the rector stated that in setting the sails of the sonl toward a definite coal, no count should be taken of the amount of strife that was necessary to attain the haven or rest, Each 1 and woman is' striy to attain the har- hour--Heaven there feat until the sa | the vovage of lic urged that man s ' ward one end and put all fe; the background, REGINA MAN HEADS BISLEY RIFLE TEAM Regina, Sask. -- Colonel A.

ORMISTON WHITBY SCOUTS AND CUBS MARK ANNIVERSARY Attend Church With Scouts From Oshawa and Bowmanville Marking the third anniversary of their organization, the First Whithy Boy Scout Troop and Wolf Cubs marched in a body on Sunday morning to All Saints' nnglican Church, where they teard an address by the rector, Rev. E. Ralph Adye, 1.th.,, on "The Marks of a Gentleman." The local Scouts and Cubs were joined by detachments from Bowmanville and Oshawa, the parade numbering about 140. Wiithy Citizens' Band was in the lead, kindly volunteering thelr rervices for the occasion. A bright morning May Day sun was shining as the Scouts proceeded nlong Dundas Street West to the church, and a large number of citizeng were out to see and greet them, At the ¢hurch they were received by the rector and war- dens and ushered into seats pecially reserved for them, Baging his address on the 15th psalm, Rev, Mr, Adye outlined some of the passages therein which he applied to modern day conditions and emphasized the fact that Christian boys and girls were and remained ladies and gentlemen, Scouts had an en- viable name, said the rector. A good Scout will walk rightly, work rightly and speak rightly. Tt was no easy task to maintain Iioy Scout principles but these were made more easy to those who reflected Christianity in their lives and looked towards Christ for help. The rector com- mended the Scout and Cubs or- ganizations and wished them every success. On Friday evening of this week the celebration of the anniver- sary will be continued when the scouts and Cubs will hold a par- ents' night. There will be an exhibition of Scoutcraft and a delightful programme with re- freshments. F. C.

It is a foct that last summer hundreds of people from Whitby and out~ side points visited the beach where there is excellent swim- ring facilities, and it is felt that a little money spent in that neighborhood would create won- uers, The Executive of the Chamber of Commerce will visit the water- front and beach in a body on Tuesday nicht, to look over the improvements already made there by the Public Utility Commission, and to ascertain what other work might be undertakefh. As a result of the visit some recommen- "ations may be made to the Couneil, Pilling in of marsh lands is the first step necessary and it is felt that work of this kind could be undertaken very economically at this time. The Public Utility Commission hns new improvement now under way. irs later went over as adjutant to the team Colonel Styles' military career dates back to before the coronation He was a member of the Canadian contingent that was sent to London for that occasion.
