The motor meter had a Hup- mobile cap.

A platform of adequate police pro- 'ection would, it is believed, influ- 'nce a very large section of the pub- ie, and the property owners in par- icular are much concerned about the 'ire department's equipment and 'umerieal strength. Mayor Preston believes that in- reased fire protection efficiency can "e gained 'without any huge expendi- ure of money. He suggests increas- ng the part paid staff, and that plan 3 further elaborated by a proposal that a number of part pay single men might be given permanent sleep- ng quarters near the fire hall where hey would be immediately available n case of a night fire. BOWMANVILLE GIRL MISSING (Continued from page 1) lerge dress, and black shoes and stockings, Miss Ward is of fair com- nlexion, has dark brown hair, which 's bobbed and wears heavy tortoise shell rim glasses. Miss Ward is known by residents f Bowmanville to be a very quiet and retiring girl of pleasing person- lity. People are at a loss to account for the girl's disappearance, point- 'ng out that she had not been brood- ing or acting despondently when seen shopping on Saturday night, That Miss Ward accepted a car ride from pepole who failed to let her out of the car is not counten- inced by people who know her, In- itances are remembered that the rirl had refused on several occasions 'o board a strange car even with 'everal close girl companions.

MONEY Seven Merchants in that Town Are Victims of the Swindlers (By Staff Re) ) Bowmanville, Nov. 14.---Seven Bowmanville merchants have noti- fied Chief of Police Jarvis that they have been victimized by the swind- lers who have been passing counter- feit five and tem dollar counterfeit American Federal Reserve bank notes, The license number of the Hudson ear in which the swindlers are riding was taken when it was going east, where they were caught by Newcastle merchants but released when money was returned. The license number of the car as taken then was 32-908, the plate being issued in the Michigan au- thorities, When the car was going west, the swindlers apparently doubling back on their track, 92- 908 was the number of the plate as taken by one of the men who recog- nized the car but was unable to chase them as he did not have a car. The license this time was also frem the state of Michigan. Those victimized locally were David Rosner, Blake Wilkens, Wil- liam Bagnell, James Ingantine, Wil- liam P. Corbett, and Arthur Cole. Others have also been victims of the swindlers but have not notified as et, The $10 bills, in the opinion of J. A. McClellan, manager of the local} branch of the Bank of Montreal, are photographs made of the Jack- son series, The impression has been made on | bank note paper, but the bill may | be known by the indistinctness of the characters in the bill and by the hard reading of the printing on the reverse side. The characters on the obverse! side are a picture of Andrew Jack- | son, former president of the United States, a farming scene and an in-! dustrial scene. At the bottom on the | reverse side the words, "This note is | receivable--" The word receivable is practically illegible. The far famed silk threads of the American notes is not an infallible test of these counterfeit bills, as the colored threads are seen also in the | ones passed, By means of a sharp knife, the threads in the hills being passed | locally may be pulled out of the paper, To the experienced bank | employee, the hills will be known | to be counterfeit by tne feel of the | paper, but the layman will know | them to be no good by the indistinct- ness of the characters, | MINOR MISHAPS vital and the Bowmanville Hospital | have heen notified but report that | 10 one answering Miss Ward's de- | 'cription has heen admitted, | Chief of Police Richard Jarvis has been notified and is working on the case, and citizens of Bowman- ville are also keeping a lookout for he girl, It is likely that H. Storey, nrovineial Constable stationed at Co- yourg, and Provincial Constable Mit- 'hell of Oshawa, will be called into the case. It was not known definitely that the girl had disappeared until this morning, when Mrs. Ross Stevens, 't whose home on the Kingston road the missing girl is employed, called Migs Dunn, a close friend of the girl on Liberty street, and asked if the %irl had stayed there all night, Miss Dunn was to have accompan- 'ed the girl to Trinity Church and waited until church was nearly call- aed before leaving without her No more is known ot the Gysappearance, hut the general impression is that 'he girl has been kidnapped against her will, Too Late to Classify 'HREE "or - UNFURNISHED ROOMS rent Conveniences.

Rocheleau, 321 Kings- dale avenue,: was driving his car, license number 379-606, south on Mary street, he was struck by a car driven by Thomas Owens, whose automobile license number is 69-635. The accident happened at the Wil- liam street corner about one o'clock Saturday afternoon. Two out-of-town men figured in an accident at the Brock street in- tersection of Mary street just hefore three o'clock Sunday afternoon. The two cars which collided were owned by Norman H. Clarke, 69 Peel street, Lindsay, and William H, Wat- son of Seagrave, The third minor accident, one which occurred east of the eity, re- sulted in hoth of the cars being somewhat damaged. Daniel Vallieres, Harmony, was driving his car on the Oshawa Missionary College grounds about two o'clock Saturday afternoon when it was struck by a car driven by M. J.

The legal profession of Oshawa is making the request claiming that the transfer of real estate and drawing up staffff now employed is not large enough to handle the business. One prominent legal firm declares that they have had to keep a girl practically that certificates of arrears of taxes paid might be obtained as promtply as possible. The protests which will be voiced at the Council session are not offered as eritizism of City Treasurer Blackburn or his staff except in a constructive way. They merely point out that civic service, in this particular, has not+kept pace with the city's growth. ; Appointment of an assistant city treasurer is discussed in this connec- tion, hut those favoring the appoint- men point cut that the existing Coun- cil might not be acting advisedly to make the appointment in vie wof the looming civic election, BATTALION OF WARDENS TO WATCH BIRD-HUNTERS St. Catharines, Nov. 11--One hun- dred and forty-six specially appoint- el game wardens and inspectors will be on duty in the Niagara Peninsula tomorrow to see that the hunters do not violate the game laws on the final open day of pheasant shooting.
