BROWN, Representative Office Telephone No. 744 Sirens Announced Making of Goodyear's 200,000, 000th Tire This morning, at 9.30, thirteen blasts of the Goodyear sirens at Toronto, Bowmanville and St. Hy- acinthe, and all other Goodyear plants throughout the world, an. nounced that the two hundred millionth Goodyear tire has be:a taken out of its mould at -the Goodyear factory at Akron Ohio. Thirteen blasts is the Morse Code 200,000,000th Goodyear tire. signal -for 200,000,000, It is claimed that no other tic: maker in the world can even ap- proach this stupendous total of tires which have been made by the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Co. in the thirty years they have been making tires. It js now 20 years since Good- year tires were first made in Can- ada for Canadian motorists acd for export and in that time no less than 17 million Goodyear Tires have been made here in the Dominion, The thirteen blasts will Le part of the ceremony which wili accompany the completion of the HISTORIC PEW PRESENTED TO GRACE CHURCH (Continued from page 1) early settlers in the district. Old Communion Set He produced and exhibited to the gathering pieces of the first communion set used in the old church in pioneer days, which tradition tells were the gift of the British Government, These articles consisted of a jug, or pitcher, of great age and a sil- ver chalice or communion cup, both these articles naturally be- ing of great historical value and greatly prized by their possessor. Joining with Dr, Kaiser in making the presentation Mr. Eckhart stated "this pew is wor- thy of veneration in any congre- gation. It is worthy of a place in a cathedral being, as it is, a link with the past of considerable value from its old associations." A. Somerville Several descendants of the old pioneer Lutherans who still re- side in the Unionville district were present for the occasion, A. Somerville, of Unionville, being requested to speak on their be- half. Mr. Somerville stated: "I al- ways considered that my great- grandfather was the most impor- tant member 'of the party of set- tlers. He was the baker." He brought congratulations from the Markham district to the Lutheran congregation of Osha- wa on the recent completion of their beautiful little chureli in this city, stating "I did not know that there was a Lutheran congregation in Oshawa until I heard from Dr. Kaiser regarding the proposed presentation." Some idea of the great Interest taken in the history of their pio- neer ancestors among the de- scendants of these early settlers was given by Mr. Somerville in his brief address when he stated that he is still in possession of a diary written by his great-grand- father from the time he left Ber- lin to the time he settled in Can- ada. Mr. Somerville invited the members of the Oshawa congre- gation to visit the church in Unionville on Sunday next, when the Harvest Home celebration is to take place, many Oshawa peo- ple afterwards expressing their intention to take advantage of _ this invitation. Gift Accepted George A. Weltz, previously selected by the council of the congregation for this duty, ac- cepted the gift on behalf of the Oshawa congregation. He expressed the appreciation of the Grace Lutheran Church for this gift, which he described as "great historical value," and voiced the thanks of the congre- gation to Dr. Kaiser and Mr, Eec- kart not only for their gift but 'for their interesting addresses, valuable as a link with the past between many members of this congregation and the hardy pio- neer settlers of more than a cen- tury ago. Proud of Gift "We must have something in the Oshawa Church of which we can justly boast," said Mr. Weltz, "This is the first oppor- tunity we have had in this church to speak of age and historical associations, but we now have something of this nature which could not be purchased at any price." He assured the donors that the old pew would occupy a place of honour in the church, and be deeply venerated for its associa- tions with the past. Before the singing of "God Save the King", Mr. Hahn an- nounced that the Ladies' Aid of the church were ready to serve refreshments in the basement fol- lowing the proceedings and in- vited all those present to stay and partake of the good things provided.

CLELLAN '(Continued from jage 1) beat out to the buoy off Bonniebrac Point, a tree ru, east to the second buoy and a straight run for home. The race to the first buoy saw No. 14 and No. 6 running neck and neck, the latter turning the buoy only two seconds ahead of the former. Immediately on passing the buoy, however, the Hart boys took McClellan's wind, and went out into the lead. The other dinghies were well behind with sOme nice jockey- ing 'for position going on, No, 5 boat with R. H. Vickery as skipper, foul- ed the turning buoy at the end of the ler and was disqualified, while boat No, J, with W, McKay at the tiller, could not get going, and was practically out of the race from the start. It finished, but was Outside the time allowance of three hours, and thus secured no points. This left six dinghies in the race, and a pretty race it was, The Half Way Mark. At the half-way mark, Hart's boat had a lead of three minutes and three seconds over McClellan, with the others strung out behind. The half-way standing was as follows: I. No. 14--W. Hart, skipper 3.56.53 vo. 6--J. W, McClellan " 3.59.38 4--Lione] Hind " 401.32 1- L. H. Rolsop " 401,50 2-1. Mackie 4.01.52 9--D. Conant 4.03.22 3--W. McKay " Time not taken, No. 6 Goes Ahead The wind had dropped consider- ably when the second round started. No. 14 headed out into the lake looking for a wind, while No. 6 hugged the shore and headed for Bonniebrae Point. The latter man- oeuvre was the most successful, for when the buoy was reached, Mec- Clellan was four minutes and 26 seconds ahead of the Hart boat. No, 9, with D, Conant at the helm tried the same manoeuvre as No, 6 and reached the buoy ahead of the others, He lost time, however, when he failed to lay the buoy correctly, and had to put about and come around a secOnd time, He thus still lay in sixth place at the turn of the buoy. On the race dow, the outside leg, McClellan and Hart kept their positions almost to a second, but Conant did some nice sailing in the light airs, and reach- ed the buoy in third position by a margi, of 44 seconds. No, 1 and No. 4 jockeyed around trying to head each other oc and at the finish the standing was as follows: 1. No. 6--]. W. McClellan, skipper 5.25.13 "5.30.00 " 5.30.20 "53802 4--W, Hart 9--D.
