WADGE A willing worker in the interests of Oshawa Fair, MEIGHEN DECLARES STEVENS SLANDERED Says He Has No Knowledge of Minister's Personal Business Sarnia, Sept. 10.--*I know noth- ing of the private affairs of Hon. H. H. Stevens, and am not accustomed to discussing the personal business of members ¢f Parliament," said Right Hop. Arthur Meighen today when interviewed with segard to the attack made by the Liberals upon Mr. Stevend for his interest in the Canadian-United States Oil and Re- fining Corporation. : "However, knowing Mr. Stevens as I do as an' upright, honest and exceedingly conscientious man, 1 have not'the slightest doubt that he went into this oil company believing it was a sound' business proposition. He has gone into 'it, like a good many. other men have gone into ventures, in good faith, recommen- ded 'them in good faith, and been leceived. ! "The attacks made on Mr. Stevens in the last few days by Right Hon. Mackenzie King are despicable and cowardly. Ever since Mr. Stevens first' made his Customs charges he has been threatened with his life, has had his files stolen, and every possible thing has been done to stop him from carrying on this inquiry. This evidently is part of the cam- naign against Mr. Stevens, with the hope of making the publie forget the rea facts in regard to the Customs scandal." ' | Speaking informally to members | of the Conservative Club in London, | the Prime Minister supplemented | his first remarks on the matter, de- 'laring that this latest 'attack!' on Mr. Stevens was just part of the campaign of '"'eruel, brutal slander" which the Liberal party has been 'onducting in the present campaign. Meighen made it clear that he vould not "dignify the subjest by ny reference to it on 'a publie plat- form. Ir I FLOWER SUNDAY AT SO. OHSAWA CHURCH Tomorrow is Flower Sunday at South Oshawa . Chureh.

READERS' VIE ws OPPOSED TO PROTECTION I'o the Editor of the Reformer :-- Dear Sir ;-- I heard one of the speakers at the Ukrainian Hall the other evening say that everyone should vote for Dr. Kai- ier and for protectioti--protection, tg protect ourselves and to protect Osh- twa. I don't understand this protec- tion idea. I fail to see where there has »een any protection in Oshawa, be- rause I spent one week and a hali rying to get a job in General Motors wd never have been able to get it yet. People come from all parts of Ontario and get jobs, but people living n Oshawa can't. get work at General Motors. I pay my taxes in Oshawa, spend my money here and live here, I have a large family, and have to leaye ny home and go elsewhere to look for work. MR. R. N. JOHNS An enterprising Director of Oshawa Fair, St. Paul, Minn., Sept. 10.--Toppled from the pugilistic heights at the zen- ith of his purse winning power, Tom- my Gibbons has confirmed his retirc- ment from the prize ring by more than a year of inactivitiy. In the more prosaic capacity of "one of St. Paul's' promising young business men," only with most of the promise fulfilled, Tommy is leading a life quite unlike that of the average "retired" fighter. He emulated his older brother, once the renowned "Phantom" Mike Gil- bons, and when his ring purses grew fat, most of his end went, figuratively, into the family sock.

They hustle to the railroad train While still it's dark as night Forgetting they can sneak up to A train in broad daylight, They ride about in trolley cars To take in every sight; They visit crowded movies where The smell is sure a fright. For me, I'd rather wait, by heck, Until the fall'fairs come; Then draw my savings from the bank And start to make things hum. We'll take the cow; we'll take. the calf We'll take the mare and foal; With mixed rosettes we'll make their tails Look like a barber's pole. We'll take the ducks, we'll 'take the hens, Our handsome bubby jock; Our big old gander with a neck As long as Lizzie's sock, We'll view cakes; And pies that look their best; Till water trickles from our teeth And down our Sunday vest, the bread and fancy The pumpkins and the turnips too Claim our admiring gaze; Just then a racket strikes our ears-- The big steam organ plays. We look at pillow slips and mats And spotted quilts galore, | Which have been carted to the fairs Full many times before, The baby beef is sure a beaut-- Eight months and half a ton, He sucks two cows, and forsooth, sucks 'another one. then He We throw a nickle's worth of balls To hit the nigger's head. Another dime we spend to see The "Bengal tiger" fed. And afterwards we buy a bag Of peanuts, worms and all; 'nd ice-cream cones with not much in From out the candy stall. The 'Ladies' Driving Class' comes next; Now hear the tires scrape! Her left leg hangs outside the box-- It is a lovely shape. Now boys with hands all tied behind Are standing in a row; When they have raced through eat- ing pies Each face is sure a show, So for the best time of your life Come to Stirling's Fall Show; You'll go home thinking that you've , had Full value for your "dough." --Stirling News--Argus MR. D. M. TOD, A past president of the South Ontario Agricultural Society, who is helping to make this year's Fair an unsur- passed success.

"Flower- FAMOUS BATTLES Jack Johnson defeated Tommy Burns before the police stopped the bout at Sydney, New South Walés, December 25, 1908. The constabulary invaded the ring in the 14th round. The ai- fair was 'to have continued to 20 rounds but as far as it went it was decisive enough to have the title gi to the big negro boxer. Burns was badly shattered and a cracked lip prevented his smiling when Bill Squires, champion of Australia, challenged the winner Bill, in his challenging speech, omitted any refer- ence to a two-minute' fight he had with Burns the previous year. There was a somewhat heated and extended argument before the show began over certain elastic bandages, covering Burns' elbows. The referee decided that. Burns could not hit with his elbows and was for leaving them on. Burns, on his own motion, re- moved the elbow covering and was re- warded with a big hand {from thé crowd. Cash on the counter was the finan- cial order of the day and the gladi- ators were paid off in the ring. So interested was the populace in the affray that a number of the cus- tomers slept in the open, waiting for the day of the fight to dawn.
