THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES. TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1928 PAGE THREE Seven Days and $25 Fine For Truck Driver Following Crash Teaches Class Children on of Indian North Shore of Cumberland Lake, Sask. Six Miles of Water Lie Be] tween Miss Cora Merrett, Budd's Point, in North of Province and Her Nearest White Neighbor -- Starting Second Year Teacher of Littlewood Mud School. Is a and (By Canadian Press) Regina, Sasy,, Sept. 24.--Those women who are frightened to stay alone will not envy Miss Cora Merrett, Bud's Point, wuorthern Saskatchewan, who left here a short time ago for the tiny In- dian settlement, on the north shore of Cumberland Lake, where she teaches a class of Indian children, Six miles of water lie between her and her nearest white nelghbor, Even to a Canadian-born girl, used to vast expanses of land, Bud's Point would be a strange and isolated spot. Miss Merrett, with the exception of a year and a half teaching school at Abbey, Sask., spent her life in Manchester and London before she came to the point a year ago. Now she is starting her second year as teacher of the little wood and mud school where her pupils are ten Cree children, The ambition of most teachers is to have their pupils attain high scholastic honors, Miss Merrett has a different objective. "If I could get them to live in decent homes and open the windows of their shacks, I wouldn't care about the rest," she declared. Being a school teacher there means also being a public health nurse, social service worker and a half dozen other things. "I'm a sort of mother of the community," Miss Merrett said, "And in turn the Indians mother me. If I go for a walk they will stand in the doors of their shacks, When I come back they are still standing there, I'm sure if I didn't turn up within a reasonable time they would send out a search party, When I go across to Cumberland House they are never quite at ease until they see me safely home again, Miss Merrett lives in her own shack and speaks no Cree, Only her pupils speak English, "I don't speak a word of Cree and I'm not going to learn it," she explained, "for if I knew their language mone of them would ever learn Eng- lish." She carries on her conver- sations with the older people by means of signs mostly, When she was ready to set out for Bud's Point and another long season with her Indian friends, Miss Merrett had a light heart. "I'm hoping to find lots to do this year," she said, "because the novel- ty will have worn off, But I think I shall still like it," START THIS WEE 10 MAKE BO Electricity Turned on Satur. day in Giant Furnaces of Feldspar G Electricity has been surging through the giant furnaces at the Feldspar Glass Company's factory since Saturday and in another day or two they will be hot enough that manufacture of glass bottles will be commenced, said H, M, Libengood, local manager of the company, to The Times. These furnaces are the first elec tric furnaces in North America that have been designed for the manufacture of glass, says Mr, Libengood, and they are now being placed in operation after several months of installation, and test- ing. The equipment necessary to make bottles is completely install- ed, and a considerable amount of eldspar ore is on hand with which manufacturing operations may be commenced. During the first period of op- eration ,the Feldspar Glass Com- pany will manufacture bottles en- tirely, but it is expected that it will later commence making othef lines of glass. Even window panes may be turned out, says Mr. Liben- good, who states that glass made from Feldspar ore has a transpar- ency equal to that of any othar form of glass. The actual manufacture of bot- tles will begin about the middle of this week, as the first heating of the furnaces has to be very grad- ual. It is understood that the com- pany have been awarded a contract for supplying a Canadian firm with a large quantity of bottles, and that production will be practic- ally continuous for the balance of the year. WAKEFIELD ASTRO MOTOR OQIl ; LES (Li START PAVING OF SIMCOE STREET IN CEDARDALE Commence Operations at the Corner of G. D. Conant's Property The much heralded paving of Simcoe street; south of Cedardale, which was advocated by the Board of Works and approved , by the council, has been commenced. Op- erations have started at Conant's Corners, about a mile and a half from Cedardale, and will continue northward to Frank street. The pavement on Simcoe street south in Cedardale will be 32 ft. wide, standard width, and on the highway outside of Cedardale, 18 feet wide. Although the road to the lake is city property, it was deemed advisable to lay only the 18 foot concrete, an additional width being easily laid in the fu- ture, Operations on the road at pres- ent will not hold traffic at a stand- still, it was stated by W. C. Smith, city engineer, today. The work will take a considerable time to complete, but it is being rushed before the onslaught of real cold weather, 88 CANDIDATES IN N.S.

EDITOR OF MOLINE PAPER EXTENDS CONGRATULATIONS Copies of Greater Oshawa Edition and Anniversary Number Exchanged As everyone knows, newspapers take a keen delight in checking up their own achievements and pro- gress with those of others, and when we read recently of a very fine special number issued by the Moline Daily Dispatch, published at Moline, Ill. on the occasion of the Fiftieth Anniversary of that newspaper, we wrote asking for a copy of the edition and tendering a copy of the Greater Oshawa Edi- tion of the Times in exchange.

Richard } Bennett, Leader of the Federal Conservative party, arrived here to- ay from Calgary, Alta, and will spend a week in Manitoba, during which time he will visit Brandon leaving for the East on Saturday, ! ommenting on the sale of the Al- herta Railways to the Canadian Paci- fic Railway, Mr. Bennett considered that Premier Brownlee of Alberta had rendered a very considerable service to Alberta," He had obtained a price many million dollars greater than it was thought possible to ob- tain, Mr, Bennett declared, "Although there will be a small loss it has been reduced to a minimum," he added. In an interview with the press, Mr, Bennett said that one thing he would deal with in his several speeches while in Manitoba was "to Ain issue with Hon, Peter Heenan, Minister of La- hor, regarding the miner-haryesters from Great Britain who are now in the country." "I have read that Mr, charged a conspiracy in Great in practically dumping 8,000 Ployed in Canada, statement on two grounds especially. If the British Government gy as charged, so is the Canadian Goy- ernment. So, too, are the transporta- tion companies by land and sea," Mr, Bennett stated, "The other gound," he continued, if there were members of the British Parliamentary Association who had knowledge to the contrary, they were muzzled, so to speak, from entering into controversial subjects because they were guests of Canada on their trip throughout the country." ESSEX TOWNS ARE MENACED AS LAKES RISE RAPIDLY Windsor, Sept. 24.--The rise in the level of the Great Lakes, already beginnifg to bé noticeable, is com- mencing to worry Riverside and other towns built on low-lying lands when lake levels were at their lowest. Much alarm was felt, in Decem- ber, 1925, when the Great Lakes were at their lowest level, 571.95 feet above sea level at 'this point. The "water steal" involved at this point. The "water steal" involved in the diversion at Chicago for the drainage canal was blamed and there were dire predictions of a further drop. One result of the drop was that swamp areas in the vieinity of Riv- erside and at other points re- jclaimed themselves.

They finally got their man working in the harvest fields at Brigden, near Calgary, Alta, and brought him back here where proceedings for his arrest were in- stituted, The accused is but one of the more than 25,000 harvest hands now working in the West but the Mounties kept on his trail until hig arrest was finally effected by De- tective Constable Dividson, Klimet is charged with slaying a bank messenger at Bermeuchen in the Prussian Province of Brand- enburg, whom he and a confederate are alleged to have shot to death in a $15,000 robbery on June 17, 1922. The confederate, a photo- grapher, was arrested and is be- lieved to have given the police Kil- met"s name, The chase for Kilmet commenc- ed on, June 21.--Germany was scoured for the alleged murderer, Every avenue of escape across the border was thought to he closed, But with the aid of his wife the man slipped through the cordon and across to France. For three years Kilmret is said to have lived high in France, while officers searched in vain for him, Then with most of his money gone, po- lice say, he came to Canada. He apparently had no difficulty pass- ing immigration inspection, It was not till May of this year that the German authorities heard their quarry had moved to the Dominion, For a time he was in Port Ar- thur and here the Mounted Police took up the trail, They learned the man had gone to the prairies, On September 14 his arrest was ef- fected, Kilmet appeared before Judge McKay this afternoon and accord- ing to British practice, was repre- sented by counsel.

This organization was set up in 1926 by the British Government in London to further the market- ing in Great Britain and Northern Ireland of Empire produce from Canada, thé United Kingdom, the other Dominions and the Colonies. Up to tive millions of dollars are set aside every year by the Par- liament of the United Kingdom for this purpose. An official Canadian representative sits as a member of this Board, The work of the Empire Mar- keting Board directly affects Can- ada, By affecting Canada, it af- fects the community in which we live, and brings this community in closer touch with the Motherland, its Dominions and the many colon ies dependant upon it, By 'colored posters, by news- paper advertisements and by dis- plays at exhibitions and at *'Shop- ping Weeks" the Empire Marketing Board appeals to every class of consumer in Great Britain to choose Empire rather than foreign produce, When, for instance, Cana- dian apples are in season the Em- pire Marketing Board draws at- tention to them in such newspaper advertisements as will leave no stone unturned in its effort to piace this product of the Canadian soil on the markets in the Old Country, Its posters are Shown in special frames in the heart of the great cities like London, Edinburgh and Belfast and in smaller towns all over 'England, Scotland, Wales and Norhtern Ireland and new frames are steadily being erected. Its advertisements appear regu- larly in all the most important newspapers, Its prizes for shop windows dressed with Empire pro- duce are compeied for hy the largest stores and the smallest re- tailers, At exhibitions, like the British Industries and at Empire Shopping Weeks all over the coun- try, its pavilions are prominent. In these pavilions the Canadian Government Exhibition Company is now regularly making most ef- fective displays of Canadian pro- duce, The aim of the Empire Market- ing Board's publicity is to keep the Empire before the eyes of every- one in the United Kingdom from the big wholesaler to the house- wife with small means, But the Empire Marketing Board does not help on publicity alone. Large grants are also made from its funds topards scientific or economic research work that Is likely either to increase the sup- plies or to improve the quality of Empire produce, An expert staff, for instance, examines the car- goes of Canadian fruit on their arrival at the British docks and reports to the Canadian producers, Such problems of urgent prac- tical importance as cold storage, and the wastage of crops and car- goes by insect pests, are among the long list of those towards the solution of which the Empire Mar- keting Board has made substantial grants, The Empire Marketing Board af- fects Oshawa. It deals with every class of Canadian industry which has to do with the products of the soil, Throughout the world there are innumerable factors function- ing in the interests of Empire in- dustry which we know little about, but which go on in our in- terests from; year to year, and without which our trade with these countries would gradually die a natural death, ORIENTAL HUMOR (Winnipeg Tribune) China's new warship is called "Peace," Hereafter it will be con- sede that the Chinese understand a joke, o---- All campaign managers seem to have been born equal in the capacity to claim elections.--Ashville Times, Joseph Rouszjack, Toronto, is Convicted on Two Charges, Driving a Truck While Intoxicated and for Reckless Driving -- De fence Witnesses Testified Accused Did Not Drink But Officers Declared They Smelt Liquor on Him (By Staff Reported) Pickering, Sept. 25.--Seven days' imprisonment to be served in the county jail was the sentence im- posed by Magistrate Clark when he convicted Joseph Rouszjac, Green- dale Ave, Mount Dennis, Toronto, of driving a truck while under the influence of liquor. Rouszjae was the driver of the truck, containing a party of eighteen Russians, which upset in the ditch on the Kingston highway near the Dunbarton school two weeks ago Sunday night, causing injury to practical- ly every member of the party in- cluding Rouszjac's mother-in-law, Mrs. Anna Weckleckoe, who until recently was not expected to re- cover, Through the medium of his counsel, Mr. F. Watson, of Toron- to, the accused man entered a plea of not guilty and denied that he was in the habit of drinking and had been intoxicated on the night of the accident, Five wit- nesses were called to prove that the defendant was not intoxicated, 11® cluding his wife, son and brother Peter, all of whom swore to his general good character. His em- ployer, Mr. Pregwin, of the Mad'- cated Wine Co., Toronto, also te 4 tified that Rouszjac was a good and trusted employee. In rebuttal of this evidence, the Crown called Traffic Constable Hil- liard, of Whitby, and County Con- stable Chester, of Pickering, who were at the scene of the accident almost immedidately after its oc- currence. Both officers swore that they smelt liquor on the truck' driver's hreath, Other witnesses for the Crown were William Rud- man, John Haegie, W. J. Kilman and John Currie, all of Toronto. Maristrate Clark, in addition to imposing the seven-day sentence, found Rousziae guilty of a charge of reckless driving and fined him $25 and costs, The aftermath of an aceident which occurred several weeks ago on the hizhway just west of the Pickering hridge, when one of Crid- land's meat trucks collided with a Whitby ear, occurred in police court yesterdar when Magistrate Clark fined the driver $10 and rosts for operating a motor ve- hicle without a lleense, His Wor- ship also censored the Cridland Meat Co. for employing a driver withont a-license and fined the firm $25 and costs, TARIFFS AND WARSHIPS (Boston Evening Transcript) While some of our politicians are planning to exclude from the United States all the Canadian products they can, it may be interesting to note that in 1927-28 American exports de- clined to all the countries of the world except Africa and Canada, The Dominion, in fact, changed places with the United Kingdom and for the first time became the principal purchaser of American goods, Our sales to the United Kingdom were valued at $364,000,000 and to Canada at $482,000,000, This is one reason why we don't need any warships on the Great Lakes. \ op Ottawa, Sept. 24, -- Farming methods, co-operative marketing, the- conditinon on arrival and the market and demand for Capadian agricultural products, were closely investigated by Hon.

The city official was dismissed this morning by Mayor C. E. Jack- son after shortages had been found in his accounts, The amount involved the Mayor sald, is slighty under $1,000. Brown is a returned soldier and has been in the employ of the eity for some eight years as assistant jo Miss Martha Dickinson, the city clerk. He is married and has four children, Brown was questioned by the Mayor this morning, after Alder- man C. R. Tuson, chairmap of the Assistant City Clerk in r Charged With Theft Civs Finance Committee, had dis~ covered the shortage {in his @e- counts, He is paid to have ad- mitted the defaleation. The money whieh it is charged that the accused official took, was collected at the City Comfort »ys- tion, Mayor Jackson and Ald. Tus- on said, There are small fees col- lected there and one of the amaz- ing facts in connection with the charges against the assistant city clerk is he fact that apparently mo one knew that he was taking charge of the collections from this source, Brown was a trusted official end bore a good reputation about the City Hall. He was being paid at the rate of $2,200 a year. Immedi- ately following ihe dismissal the city ordered Brown's automobile confiscated. ar" Aer -- C. OF C.
