Oshawa has produced s0ine fine softball teams in the past and this year, evidently, is Do exception. The Dodgers had a tough time ousting the Torontu Indians, but they ousted them and that is all that is necessary. They will meet a different kind of opposition in the Canada Car- riage. Reg.

No thinking man has any criticisms to offer of suggestions made, or regulations laid down, which benefit the general health of the people. "We have accepted the spirit of the Health' Act, we have shouldered our responsibilities to the fullest extent, and the result is that the people of this city have an absolute- ly pure and safe water supply. "Some idea of the growth of the <ystem can be obtained from the fact that in 1906, when the system was established, the amount of water pumped was forty-eight mil- lion gallons, now we pump six hun- dred and eight millions. In 1906 there were nine miles of mains, now we have fifty-two miles. The capi- tal investment of 1906 was $58,132. now the capital investment is $1,- 114,000. Tribute to Mr. Fowke "I have one regret at this Junch- con, Mr. Fowke is not here (Mr. Fowke arrived during Dr. Kaiser's address a few minutes later). He and Dr. Kaiser are the only two surviving members of the original Water Works Commission and they both did a great deal towards the establishment of a public water supply" said Mr. Mason. In closing the chairman extended congratulations to the W. J. West- away Co. Ltd. of Hamilton, the W. J. Trick Company Ltd. of this city, the principal contractors, and F. A. Dallyn the engineer in charge of construction for the manner in which the work of completing the Filtration Plant had been carried out, and also expressed the thanks of the Commissioner of which he is chairman for the co-operation given by the entire staff of the Utilities in performing the vast amount of extra work entailed.

[I never got very much out of it and thought that perhaps that was the reason for my invitation to this enjoyable luncheon."

In closing Dr. McCullough extend ed congratulations on behalf of the Ontario Department of Public Health to the city and citizens of Oshawa on the completion of the Filtration Plant. Medical Health Officer Dr. T. W. G. McKay, Medical Officer of Health, in expressing the appreciation of the gathering for Dr. McCullough's- address, also re ferred to the problem of maintain ing a pure milk supply, stating that it was surprising in the years not 50 long ago "to find the number of persons who preferred to drink manure." Oshawa is, 1 hope, permanently free from typhoid" said Dr. McKay who expressed his pleasure at the completion of the Filtration Plant "I hope this occasion will inscribe in the hearts of the citizens of Oshawa the message handed down over nineteen centuries 'I was thirst and ye gave me to drink' There is an obligation on us to supply fresh, pure water without price." most en made 1t regard Wants Free Water F. L. Fowke, who with Dr. Kaiser was one of the original members of the first Oshawa Water Works Commission, supported Dr. McKay in thanking Dr. McCullough for his presence on this occasion. "Dr. Kaiser never could be noted for seeing eye to. eye" said Mr. Fowke, "and we could not sec eye to eye for some time on the con- troversy which raged regarding the establishment of a public water works system in Oshawa.

During the general inspection of the plant which ensued Dr. McCul- lougin handled the control levers which *"back-washed" four of the actual filtration tanks, this operation being watched with keen interest by the large crowd of interested persons assembled for the occasion.

The game will usher in a sea- son which it is hopes will see a great revival of the fall sport in the city. The game will get under way at three o'clock and as it will be the only holiday attraction in the city the fans should take advantage of the opportunity of giving the team the once over. : Weston got a bad game out of their systems against Invictus and with the weight at their disposal are called to give the Blue Devils a real battle for the honours. The local squad themselves had a none too ambitious start against Eastsides last Wednesday night in Toronto never showing the rugby of which they arc capable and leading the Toronto sports writers to comment that they are only a shadow of their former selves, The Oshawa team rather resented this statement and are out to demonstrate that they are a team capable of playing the rughy that wins championships. The Blue Devils showed in their last game that they are in far bet- ter condition than at any time last season, with the starting players go- sh the first half with but few changes in the lineup. They were not very sure of their signals and used the huddle system all through the game but with a few more practices under their belts have improved immensely, The team camé out of the Eastsides game ith few serious casualties and will work out at Alexandra Park this afternoon to get the kinks out for the game on Monday. The team on paper is as strong as in any year in the past with a well balanced back field which has plenty of reserve strength, while the line worked well and plunged for good zains on occasion. Of the new comers to the team Colmer, a pro- duct of the high school team in Bowmanville appears to be headed for 2 reserve place at outside, He is a husky player and should come along fast when he hits his stride, Hobart another ofitside who played with the team in 1928 while not get- ting into the game on Wednesday night will undoubtedly see action before long, The backfield have also been practising the forward pass and got results by that route in their game with Eastsides, complet- ing four out of five passes for good gains. In a pinch the team can rely on the kicking of Hubbell who is getting good length to his hoists and is at his usual form in running back kicks. SHEFFIELD CITY HALL HAS J ARGE NEW AUDITORIUM New Structure Has Unique Auditorium Which Will Seat 3,000 Persons Sheffield, England. -- Shef- field's new City Hall, which took three years to build and js uni- que in the possession of a great oval hall which accommodates about 3.000 people, was opened by the Lord Mayor, T H.
