GHANGE MADE IN TRAFFIG SIGNALS More Time Allowed For East and West Traffic (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, Aug. 9.--A change has been made in the time of the auto- matic electric signals which regu- lates the traffic at the Brock and Dundas streets intersection. More time is being allowed for the traf- fic passing through from the' east and west, and less time for the traffic from the north and south. The time for the east and west is 35 seconds, while the north and south is twenty-five seconds. As there is a great deal more traffic on the Kingston highway this new ar- 'rangement is working very satisfac- tory. During the heavy traffic that passed through the town over the highway the signal worked well but it is posible that a few minor ad- justments may still be made. Tne change in time was made in aecord- ance with a decision made recently by the town council.

The hospital team were unfortunate however in their many attempts on the opposing goal and it was only by the good work of the opposing backs and the goalie that saved the visitors from defeat. During the first half the specta- tors were treated to some clever soccer with both teams playing their best and carrying the ball up and down the field with good team work, Neither team were able to beat the goalies and the half ended without georing. At the start of the second half the Brooklin team with grim deter- mination and by excellent playing scored two goals in quick success sion. The Hospital team quickly rallied and Harris scored soon af- ter on a neat drive to the corner of the Brooklin net. Harris was given a penalty soon after, made good use of his opportunity and the score was tied. The hospital team continued to make many dangerous attempts on the visitors' goal but without success.

ONSOME CLUES Believe Burglars Have Been Active in Qther Centres (By Staff Reporter) Bowmanville, Aug. 9.--The local police are still working on the two robberies which occurred here dur- ing the last week. Several import- ant clues are being followed up, and the police up and down the lake front,as well as in other im- portant centres have been notified of the burglaries. The burglary at the home of Mr. Dumas was simi- lar to several others along the line. For three consecutive nights before the theft case in Bowmanville there was a robbery in each of the fol- lowing centres in order of their po- sition along the lake front. Brigh- ton, Cobourg and Port Hope. There is no doubt in the minds of many acquainted with the facts of these thefts that it was the same thief on thieves who pulled all four jobs. The police in these centres are thus very active in the search for the culprits. Whoever the thieves are they will have a long list of charges presented to them should they ap- pear in police court. ADDITIONS T0 THE MENAGERIE Baby Pheasants, And Guinea Pige Are New Attractions '(By Staff Reporter) Bowmanville, Aug. 9.--Several additions have been made to the menagerie at the Cream of Barley park during the last few weeks. Those which are attracting - the most attention are the English pheasants chicks. These little birds are not nearly as large as a baby chick, but they can cover ground and take to cover like an old bird. The parents of these birds are quite proud of their offspring: and look after them to the best of their abil- ity, as only parent birds can' do. Woe betide the person who tries to lay a hand on any of their babies. Another interesting addition is the pen of baby guinea pigs.
