Thursday and OSHAWA, ONTARIO, TUESDAY, DECEM BER 5, 1922 Yearly Subscription $3.00 Single Copies § Cents Four Candidates-in . Tuxis Election are Fights Making Good Clean, Peppy Campaigns Free From ;, "Mud Slinging" Arouse Much Interest-- Novel Campaign Stunts Be- ing' --Boys_ Set * Forth Platforms, g OSHAWA 'WILL BE WELL REPRESENTED While thé older people may not realize it as fully as does the ris- ing generation, Oshawa is in the throes of a hard-fought election cam- paign this week. On Saturday the] 'boys of the town are to elect their - representative to the Ontario Boys' Parliament and at the present time all four candidates and their sup- porters are hard at work corralling votes. One thing is certain, Both on their records and on the enthusiasm and pep being displayed in the cam- paign Oshawa is to be well represent- ed no matter which member of the quartette is selected by the youth- ful electors on Saturday. Well-arranged campaigns are now under way and the various candi dates are addressing .young peoples' meetings in various churches of the town in hopes of adding a vote or! two to their collection. Campaign managers are working hard in the interests of their candidates and if you should see some real big- time election stunts such as the stringing of streamers across the Four Corners, do not be surprised. One feature of the election is the freedom from bitterness and un- gentlenianly tactics in campaigning. Not a single candidate or supporter is "slinging mud." When The Re- former asked that each of the four boys or their managers furnish a brief summary of platform and quali- fications, none of the four resulting contributions so much as mentioned the candidature of any of the other three ! With reservations for the enthusi- asm and possible resulting bias of the "interested parties furnishing the information, the following will give the people of Oshawa some idea of the candidates and their platforms. Cecil Bint The first, name on the ballot is that of Cecil Bint, standing as can- didate from South Oshawa Methodist Church. r. Bint has taken for his slogan "Help the other fellow," a slogan that is quite applicable to his work as a church worker. Although an Anglican by religion, he has directed all his energies in working for the mission. No or- ganization in the church is lacking for his help. He has held office in the Epworth League since it was formed and it is due largely to his efforts that so many young men are now numbered among the ppem- bers of that' organization. For a long time he has held office in the Sunday School and is active in the Young Men's Class and among the Tuxis Boys where he is a group leader. { Mr. Bint is not an athlete in the accepted sense of the word. He is always playing games but is not "in it" when a team is chosen. He is not the purely athletic type but has acted as team and sports organi- zer and leader. . Mr. Bint is treasurer of the re- cently- formed Boys' Work Board of Oshawa. George Jamieson The next ndme on the list is that of George Jamieson, standing as re- 'presentative from the Presbyterian Church. This candidate is an out and out athlete. fle is a student at the Oshawa High School where his prowess in the field of sport is| well known and where he is consid- ered a star as a rugby player. He was one of the Presbyterian athletes who brought honor to Oshawa by capturing the Dominion Tuxis shield, a shield offered for competition among Tuxis boys all over Canada. . Mr. Jamieson, like all the other candidates, is well-versed in the Ca- nadian Standard Efficiency Training program. Since of age to be a Trail Ranger he has been in the pro- gram in Simeoe. his previous home, and since coming to Oshawa . has been an ardent Tuxis worker. For a number of years he has been a faithful attendant at the annual boys' conferences, so is not only po- pular through sport but through his Tuxis activities. He has taken as his slogan "Better boyhood for Oshawa," under the headiiigs of the Three C's, clean liv- ng. clean speech and clean ath- etics.: Fred Riding Next on the ballot slip will be found the name of Fred Riding, can- didate from the Christian Church. His election literature contains two slogans, his own which reads "Osh- awa boys, first, last and 'all the. , time" and that of the Oshawa boys which reads "Riding for this rid- ing." . He has lived in Oshawa all his life, is getting his education in Osh- awa and has worked hard promot- ing boys' work in Oshawa and so: claims the right of an Oshawa 'boy.| to represent Oshawa. He has been four years in Tuxis work here. One of his claims for office is that as a Fourth Form student at the Oshawa High School he knows what High School boys want and expect of (Contipued op Page 2) ling. Marjorie Clark, Betty Lovell, ARESTON WATSON Representative of Simcoe Street election as Oshawa's member in the Provincial Boys' Parliament, Several Bylaws Heard by Council Several by-laws were passed at last night's meeting of the -Town Council but none of these were of an important nature. A by-law was introduced by Councillor Hubbell authorizing the sum of $10,000 to be turned over to the fuel committee for the purchase of fuel. Councillor Alger introduced a by- law, which carried, authorizing the Mayor to sign an agreement with the Oshawa Railway amending an agreement hetween the company and the Oshawa Railway relative to the passing of track in front of the com- pany's office, Lg Councillor Brown introduced a by- law which authorized the town to borrow the sum of $20,000 for the completion of the Westmount sewer.

Canada is again the second largest' wheat producing country in the world this year, with an estimate yield of 388,773,000 bushels, com- pared with 300,858,000 bushels in 1921 and 393,542,600 in 1915, the year of the record harvest in North Tuxis Boys who is campaigning.fos775. ONE HALF MILL ASKED FOR FIRE That Money Be Raised Voluntarily From Woollen Mills Re Smoke Nuisance of Os last night's meeting of the Council, The committee asked for a grant equivalent to one half mill of tho town's assessment. The Mayor expressed the opinion that the town and county should get together so that there might be no overlapping. Councillor Preston ob- jected saying that the matter of re- lief work was purely a provincial project. 'The scheme means that the municipality which could not af- ford to donate a certain sum would according to their sentiments cor- tribute a large sum while a munici- pality devoid of sentiment and yet able to pay might not contribute anything, Councillor Moffat also spoke against the expenditure, that the Town had enough on its hands to keep within the 25 mill rate. He suggested that an effort be made to raise the money by volun- tary contribution, On the motion of Deputy Reeve Mason the matter was referred to the finance committee, Town Property Councillor Hawkes presented . a brief report of the Town Property committee which recommended that the insurance carried on various municipal building and effects be in- creased. The report .was adopted. Additional insurance on the follow- ing buildings will be obtained: Fire- hall, $4000; Town, Farm, $1500; Town Hall, $2500; Town Hall Ef- fects, $1000. Other - Business A report of the work accomplished by Mrs. Walker, police matron, was read by the clerk. Reeve Morris to Mrs. Walker for services. The motion carried, A letter was received from W. E. N. Sinclair suggesting the drafting of a by-law whereby the Town would assume the responsibility of cleaning sidewalks of snow. He contended that Town workmen could do the work and the expense could be added to tax bills. The matter was referred to the Board of Works. Councillor Moffat was appointed by the Mayor to attend a meeting America. (Continued on page 8) Month's School Reports ALBERT STREET Jr. I.--Frank Stevens, Lillie Bra- cey, Vera Ayres.

The appointment of Mr. Blackburne was by the Finance Committee; and when the matter was put to the vote the result was that it car- ried unanimously, The salary has been fixed at $2,700 per year. The action of the Council in creating this position is the re- sult of the report of the auditors delegated to enquire into the af- fairs of the town, When Mr. Blackburne's 'name was mentioned as the choice of the Finance Committee for the position, Deputy Reeve Frank IL.

"Every day! | I receive almost a dozen inquiries | jand last Friday no less than fourteen | eame into the Y.M.C.A. asking for | rooms and board.

Holland has procured a per- mit to erect a store and dwelling on the north west corner of King and Ritson road between Rae and Divi- sion streets. This is the building which caused so much discussion in the Town Couneil. Certain members of the council were in favor of not granting the permit. Mr. Holland got legal 'advice howa¥er and he found that he could mot be prevented from going ahead with the work. The erection of the building is now under way. The estimated cost of the structure is $5000. A permit has als@l been granted to R. B. Wilkins, for the erection of a brick and frame dwelling on Mary street between Elgin and Aberdeen streets. Its cost bas been estimated at $2500. 2 Simcoe Street Methodist "At some time in the life of every one of us comes a vision," declared Rev. J. H. McBain, addressing a large congregation in Simcoe Street Methodist Church, on Sunday even- ing. "Too many of us are not obe- dient to these visions. These visions or opportunities are given us of God and it is our duty to curselves and him to make the most of them." Taking for his text the nineteenth verse of Acts 26, "Whereupon, O King Agrippa, I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision," the speak- er made it clear that in that one sentence was summed up the secret of Paul's success. Paul had visions and obeyed them. Passing down through the years, Mr. McBain spoke of other great men who had had visions: Lincoln, who had had the visions of a country free of slaves, was among those men- tioned. Coming on down to the present day be pointed out that it was not to great men alone that visions were given, but to all, and that it was largely because these men had heed-, ed their visions that they had be- come great.
