His Lord- ship pointed out that the county's population was 1,500,000 and the ab- sence of crime was remarkable when it was realized that the county had been passing through so much in- dustrial trouble, That is an example of philosophic endurance that is indeed commend- able and should be honored. The miners of Durham have had years of bitter suffering, of which this win- ter scéason is the worst. They have endured it, on the strength of yes- terday's bread and margarine; of last week's fire, Little bodies, rag-clad, the little people that are their children and that are hungering and shiver- ing, have tested that endurance to the breaking point--yet they have en- dured; the Po kept the law; and they have hoped, for the sake of the children, that aid would come, There is a type of philosphic en- durance much practiced in Canada-- the philosphic endurance of some- body else's suffering that is especially active in 'a warm room and after a good dinner. Then the miners seem far away; tomorrow seems to be all right to help them, And, at the same moment, mothers over there are shed- ding silent tears as their babies cough with the dread 'pneumonia that has come through lack of warmth and lack of food. They are our brothers--the mother stock from which we sprung. Shal they be alowed to perish while we live in comfort? T. W.

Vandyke on the Taunton road about two and 2 half miles from the town The birds were valued at $35 and had been securely locked in their coops last nicht. A'though ne one noticed or heard the marauders eronnd the house, the theft must have been committed between ten o'clock last night when the occu- pants of the"Vandyke home retired and eight o'clock this morning when the theft was found out. Provincial constable Mitchell who visited the scene the theft this morning stated the only likely way the birds could have been taken would be bly truck. but mo clues could be obtained from this information since there were 2 great many tire marks around the place, and the high- ways were practically bare.

E. Davis Says Nickel Al loy Only Useful for Tooling Purposes That the new nickel alloy recent. ly perfected is not at the present time of practical value for use in casting automobile engtne eylin- ders but that is it of henefit in tool- ing parts, was a statement made by W, E. Davis, assistant gen. man- ager of General Motors of Canada, when nterviewed by The Times in connection wth an item which ap- peared in a Toronto evening paper recently. The new alloy was so hard that it could shave a thin splinter off a bar of glass, was Mr, vavis' com- ment. It was being used in the automobile industry in tools where extreme hardness is necessary by fusing a small portion of the new metal on the tool as its cutting surface, The alloy which is a combination of copper, nickel and zine, was not however of any value in casting automobile cylinders as the Toron- to paper had said, heralding it as a metal that could be cast so exact- ly that tooling of the parts would be unnecessary. "We cannot use so hard a metal in cylinders," Mr, Davis declared, "for it would wear the pistons so quickly that it would defeat its usefulness. Besides this it is worth $12 per pound and a cylinder would be almost worth its weight in gold f this metal were used. [I consider that it will nev- er replace the present method of boring automobile cylinders." In connection with the proper- ties of the new metal in resisting the corroding effect of sulphur in automobile oils and the lead in Ethyl gasoline, Mr. Davis declared that General Motors was not wor- rying about ether of these for they were both taken care of in General Motors cars. BELL TELEPHONE 10 SPEND $435,000 BRAGEBRIDGE LINE LINE NORTH FROM OSH. AWA TO OVERHAULED, _RE-ARRANGED Toronto to North Bay Line Re-routed Through Oshawa and Orillia The District Manger of the Beil Telephone Company, H. M. Black, has announced that Lis company have started work on a general overhaul- ing of its long distance line between Oshawa and Bracebridge, This line is a part of the long distance line from North Bay to Toronto which will be routed through Huntsville, Brace- bridge and Orillia. Over $495,000 will be spent between now and June in re-arranging an supplementing the present pole lines. All close parallels with electric pow- er lines will be avoided, as they tend to interrupt the transmission of long distance calls. For thirty-four miles the line will be over private right-of- way and this will mean that new poles and crossarms will be erected. When completed, the line will carry all traffic from the west to Toronto. The new circuits will permit the maximum use of "carrier" equipment. This carrier equipment enables two or morc conversations to be trans- mitted without interruptions over the same pair of wires at the same time, This, of course, will give a greatly extended service over busy lines that could be given before only by erect- ing more lines.

WEATHERMAN Bee Boe de Beads te Becodectede edo tostoetestond PETTITTE TTTeTeeTr "It's back is broken," The forecaster says, Of this cold weather That's hung o'er our heads. * % 3 k 4 Jt was evident this morning as we trudged down .to our daily toil that the temperature had risen slightly as compared with yesterday. The real tang had been taken out of the air and one could walk down town without speculatively feeling one's cars about every half a block. And, according to the Indian, the coldest day of the year has passed. Up on the Brantford reserve the In- dians celebrate the White Dog feast every year on what is supposed to be the coldest day of the year, Last vear the feast was held in January, on what proved by the records to be the winter's coldest night, and the celebration for this year was held Tuesday night, So, apparently the worst is over. It was so cold, we hear from In- gersoll, that telephone wires snapped under the sudden contraction and put the service temporarily out of business, St, Thomas, according to the thermometers up there, touched 30 below zero. Toronto, officially, went to 2 below and Oshawa, un- officially, experienced a 5 below zero temperature, 'S funny what people will do when there is a wedding in the offing, Mike Huculak, of Neeawa, Manitoba, was best man, and when the groom- to-be found himself without proper funds, Mike obligingly walked into a grocery store and robbed the pro- prietor at the point of a gun, He has five years in which to think it over. In the meanwhile, the groom, we suppose, will have a lifetime to de- bate the error of his ways.

Bennett and Mrs. Bennett, in the Sunday school room of the church. The banquet was prepared by the Women's Bible Class and was tastefully served. The tables were decorated with bowls of daf- fodils and candles. With the excep- tion of two, who were detained on account of illness, and one by coi- lege studies in Toronto, every mem- ber of the board was present, Officers Elected After the supper and a short sin- song the pastor was asked to take the chair when the following officers were elected for the coming year: General superintendent, R.

However, the teachers, and officers make progress and fine religious ed- ucational work is carrred on. After an enthusiastic vote of thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Bennett, the pastor, Dr. W. P.

Shields, provincial secretary of the Canadian Legion and M. Mc- Intyre Hood, chairman of the exe- cutive of the local branch of the Legion, delivered stirring addresses to a gathering of ex-service men which filled the Rotary Hall to ca- pacity last night, The event was a smoker and concert arranged by the Oshawa Branch of the Canadian Legion to bring together for a night of good fellowship the ex-service men of the community, and in every way it was a success. In ad- dition to the speakers, an excellent program was provided, the Oshawa Citizens' Band being present, and it provided music which set the feet of the men present tramping again over the roads as in war days, Other entertainers who took part were George Walsh and Harry Havelock, ,soloists, who sang ex- cellently; Reg Terrett, who enter tained in his own characteristic style; Georges Reoch, elocutionist, Tommy Cruse, who provided some good comic songs, and A, H, Pow- er, whose comedy' monologue was splendidly received. Mayor Addressed Meeting President J. T. Dalby, of the lo- cal Legion, occupied the chair, and after extending a hearty welcome to the visitors, called on Mayor Mitchell to address the gathering, Mayor Mitchell, in a briéf address, complimented the Legion on being able to sponsor so splendid an ev- ent, and said that, with the back- ing of an organization which stretched from the Atlantic to the Pacific, the local branch should go on to greater success than ever be- fore. The men who had served overseas fn the war, he said, had shown themselves to be real eiti- zens, and these same men could make a success of their organiza- tion. He also complimented the band on its showing, and said he had felt highly honored to be sd- dressed as "comrgde'" by the ex~ service men.
