Not Dead Nor Drunk But A Watchman Receiving information that a man, who was either dead or drunk, was lying in a ditch at Harmony, License Inspector Mason, in company with Sergt. Paxton and Interpreter W. Igel, made a record trip to that village Friday night. On their arrival they found that they were not deceived as to the man's location, but fortunately he was neither dead nor under the influence of liguor. The inspector attempted to rouse the man from. his slumbers, but mot until shaken two or three times did the man open his eyes. On inquiring who he was, the man declared he was a night watchman and was em- ployed to watch the detour at Harmony. He denied empha- tically that he had been asleep, but the officers had their own opinions. : LEFT BABY ON DOORSTEP A bouncing baby boy, ten days old snugly tucked away in a small bas- ket, was found on the steps at the entrance to the Port Hope Hospital about 11.30 o'clock Saturday night. The clothing of the little one was spotlessly clean and of very superior quality, but there was no note or in- structions 'of any nature left with the babe. After the discovery had been made the nurses recalled hav- ing seen an automobile stop in front of the hospital about an hour be- fore.

It was there- fore moved by Trustee H. S. Smith and seconded by Trustee F. Chappell that the secretary be instructed to take the preliminary step in the mat- ter. Mr. Althouse's Report. The report of Principal J. G. Alt- house in which he referred to the attendance at the High School was as follows: "The Oshawa High School reopen- ed on Sept. 5th with all the teachers present and an enrolment of 319 pu- pils, or 36 more than on the cor- responding day of last year. The present enrolment is 340, of which 165 are boys and 175 girls. There are 259 pupils from the town, 65 from Onfario County and 16 from other counties. "The increased enrolment is most marked in the first year of the gen- eral school, where there are 99 pu- pils. Of these 30 have applied for the subjects on the Lower School ex- amination, and so must be put in a separate form by themselves. The remaining 69 cannot be handled in one form, but must be divided into two forms, making three first year forms in the general school, in place of two as heretofore. This necessi- tates adding a teacher to the High School staff. M ment C has been in- formed of this requirement. "In the Commercial Department, The chairman of the in attendance. There is also a first year form and a second year form, which includes two distinct courses of study. "Through the activity of the Pro- perty Committtee the High School building has received many necessary repairs during the vacation. The assembly hall walls and ceilings have been metalled and painted; the stairs have been rebuilt; the build- ing has been re-wired and new elec- tric lighting installed; bicycle sheds have been built; a cement curb along the driveway now protects the lawn from careless motorists, and the front steps have been rebuilt. Shelves have been built in the chemistry laboratory; proper facilties have been made for gtoring the cadet uni- forms and a shower bath has beén in- stalled in the boys' basement. "Fifty Moulthrop desks have been added to the equipment. "All 'of these repairs and improve- ments are appreciated by the pupils and staff. The work of the school will be carried on under much more favorable conditions than those which existed before. "The caretaker had the building clean and the grounds in first class order for the opening of school." Pigeons Disappear Two Men Arrested Two arrests were made yesterday afternoon by the local police in con- nection with a number of thefts, which took place on Nassau Street recently, the last ome being on Thursday evening. From time to time pigeons have been missed in that locality and when some more were reported missing from the pens of Mr. G. Walker and Mr. J. Me: Kay, yesterday morning, Mr. J. As- kew thought it wise to notify the police in order to protect his own birds. He intimated his suspicions to Chief Friend and a few hours later, a number of the birds were discovered at the home of Russell Down, on the Base Line West. Both Russell Down and Wilfred Miles were taken into custody and last evening apeared before Magistrate Hind. An adjournment for eight days was made.
