Gad THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, AUGUST. 20, 1929 Sn ities of Airport For City o cides Os] PAGE NINETEEN 4 er pens Kilios Karuiva At Lakeview Park Yesterday ~~ Wasanl nqualified Success Over 1700 Children Trans- ported To The Park For 'Afternoon of Glorious Fun and Frolic Under The Aus- pices of The Oshawa Kins- men's Club. KIDDIES ENJOYED AFTERNOON'S EVENTS 'Races, Novelty Entertain- _ 'ment, and Abundance of Eatables Provided By The Kinsmen To Make Karni- .val More Successful Than Ever. Blessed with ideal weather for the occasion, the annual Kidates' Karnival of the Oshawa Kinsmen's Club, at which 1,700 children were guests of the club at Lakeview Park yesterday afternoon, was an unqualified success. Every detail of. preparation had been carefully organized. The program was one which was calculated to interest and amuse the children, and the attention paid to the other features which characterized the event all tended to make the Karnival an uc. casion for the fullest enjoyment. To say that the kiddies enjoyed it is putting it mildly. It was ther day, and they were all out to make the most of it, from the time they assembled at Rotary Park for the thrilling ride to Lakeview Park, some in private cars, and hun. dreds on the top of big trucks. The scene at Lakeview Park was a merry and colorful one. The hun- dreds upon hundreds of children crowded around the park grounas, to catch every item on the varied program, attracted by the antics. of the clown band, and anx- fous to vie with each other, not only in the sports events of the 'day, but also in, what was more jmportant for them, to share in the "good things which were being dis- 'tributed to them from the various booths. Scores of the parents were there, too, helping not only with 'heir own children, but also to see Ror every child entered fullysinto 'the glory of the Karnival, and had 'Bis or her proper share of all the 'good things going. © It was good to see the jolly iyoungsters solemnly sucking ice J¢ream cones, sticky with candies, sand beaming with good nature and 'high spirits. Amusing the crowd "was a number of clowns who play- "8d musical instruments, and per- rmed numerous comic antics forms had the crowd in a continual 'yoar of merriment. Three music- 'fans marched about playing lively 'tines, and enticing a following ot 'youngsters, then, they would stop, "indulge in amusing cross talk, play "some more tunes and move on to mnother spot. : Scouts of Great Help © A Red Cross tent had been pitch- 'ed in the ball field near the road, 'and quite a number of cases for "minor injuries were treated. 'The 'scouts who attended the Karnival, were much in evidence, serving in rdifferent ways with great cheerful- yess. Besides officiating behind {ghe counters of the refreshment Ybooths, they patrolled the ropes of ithe race course, and kept people from encroaching on the enclosed , and leaning on the ropes. HePhey held the finishing tapes, and iperformed every service that was 1gequired of them. 'Toward the middle of the after- '}oon the gay throng moved toward the ropes of the enclosed race course, and the sports program be- gan. A record number of entramws competed in all the races; conser quently a number of heats had vo Pe arranged with the winners eu /gering as finalists in the race for | prizes. Much fun was furnished by | uch races as the sack race, and i#hree-legged race, and the clowns 'again caused general merriment by nyading the race course and carry- #ng on laughable buffoonery. 'iBut all great days must come to an end, and the Karnival had to conclude 'some time. Nevertheless §t was with infinite regret that tue ddies prepared to enter the trucks cars for their homeward ride at five o'clock. : A Great Success +The Kinsmen may be well satis- ed; for the picnic was as success 1 as could be well expected. Re- freshments transportation, weath- er. and help, were all just right, and 'deserving of a great deal of raise. The officials of the Kins- pn's Club who are to be congrat- ulated on excellent organization are Messrs. Norm Mallett, Dave Fowler, Tom Wilson, Russel Storks, Young and Dr. L. E. Hubbell, ent of the Oshawa Kinsmen's "The work of transportation was splendidly handled. Scores of cars and trucks, volunteered by citizens gious to help the Kinsmen in r laudable endeavor, assembled * Rotary Park shortly before two o'clock, and so well had the plans Peen laid, under the supervision ot Harry Mallett and Jack - Hoover, t before the hour of two struck, practically every child was either #t Lakeview Park or on the way there.

C. Jarrett for his ser- vices as judge of the juvenile court for the year 1929 according to a clause in the report of the finance committee which was received and adopted by the city council last night. An honorarium of $500 will also be paid to A. L. W. Smith for his ser- vices as clerk and probation officer to the court. Ald. Morris opposed the report on the ground that the council had turned down a candidate for the position who had offered to do the work without a salary. He was con- fident that Capt. Jarrett was a capable man but for this reason he could not see his way clear to spend the city's money. Other members of the council, how- ever, favored the payment of the honorarium as they could not expect someone to devote a great deal © time to this work for nothing, TRIBUTE PAID TO DIRECTOR OF THE LITTLE THEATRE John Craig is Mentioned in British Drama League Annual Yearbook An interesting reference to John Craig, the director of the Little Theatre of Oshawa, and to Mrs. Craig, appears in a volume entitled "The Amateur Dramatic Year Book and Community Theatre Hand Book, 1928-1929," which, incidentally, is on the shelves of the Oshawa Public Library. The book is issued in London, England, under. the. auspices -of the Drama League and while devoted largely to British doings in ama- teur drama, it has a section devot- ed to Canada. In the chapter which deals with Canada, is a reference to the work of The Com- munity Players of Winnipeg, in which appears the following para- graph;- "There are two or three out- standing producers in this group, who from the first have given us plays that in attention to detail and adherence to the best tradi- tions have left nothing to be de- sired. The dean among them is certainly John Craig, with. close seconds in W, K. Chandler, Row- ena Brownstone, Rose Matheson, Edith Sinclair, O. A.

In the afternoon, Mrs. Buchanan had been the guest of honor at a reception tendered her by the Ro- tary-Annes at the home of Mrs. G. D. Conant, Simcoe Street South, while Governor Buchanan had held a conference with the club coun- cil in the Chamber of Commerce board room. The dinner was splen- didly attended, the tables, formed in the shape of a large '"R'", being fully occupied" by the Rotarians, their wives, and friends. The meal was served in an exceptionally pleasing manner, and this part ot the program was not the least en- joyable. Toast To Ladies The whole program was splen- didly arranged. The vocalists who supplied solos were Mrs. Beaton and Robert Mills, both of whom were warmly received as they ren- dered delightful vocal numbers.

The speaker pointed out that life could be divided into decades. Bach decade brought with it a lessening of one's reserve of energy and one's conduct had to be governed ac- cordingly so that this energy might be conserved. ! Fresh air, sunlight, exercise, well balanced diet, the daily bath, good hours and a pleasant frame of mind were among the things stress- ed by Dr. Hazelwood as important factors in conserving life. He al- so advocated moderation in the use of alcohol, tobacco, coffee, and tea. The speaker favored: periodic health examinations in order to preserve good physical health. 7 A brief description of the lum- | ver industry in Canada was given by H. F.

And on this day of days we meet and renew our friendships, and fur- ther, cement the great comradeship made during the Great War on: the battlefields of France and Flanders, and the 'spirit of our comrades who are sleeping their last sleep on the far fields of France is with us on this day that we commune together. Their spirit is always with us, never to be forgotten, and in all we do to solve the problems that we now have with us. : The thought of them is ever our guide and incentive in all our Legion work in its aims and ideals.

Tickets Provided This Year For Families of Legion Members Prospects for a record turnout of the ex-service men of Oshawa at the Warriors' Day parade at the Canadian National Exhibition on Saturday of this week were ex- pressed at last night's meeting of the local branch of the Canadian Legion, when plans were completed for the trip, by bus, to the exhibi- tion grounds. In addition to tax- ing part in the parade, the ex-sur- vice men will have the privilege of tree admission to the grounds for the whole day, so that it should provide a splendid outing for a large number of local ex-service men. y According to the plans Which have been made by the Legion, for the benefit of all ex-service men of this city, as announced last night, two busses, each capable of accom- modating 35 persons, will leave the Legion club rooms, at the market building, on Richmond street, at 8 o'clock sharp on Saturday morning. These busses will proceed straight to the exhibition grounds, and will go into the ground, there being no admission charge for the members of the party. The Parade For the Warriors' Day parade, the assembly will be at the Trinity College Grounds, on Queen street west, at 1,45 p.m. There the Osh- awa contingent will join with the other parties from all over. Om- tario, and with the party of 5,000 American Legion members who are coming specially for the parade. The parade is due to move off at 2.30 p.m. sharp, and all the Osh- awa ex-service men are expected to be on the Trinity College Grounds at 1.45 so as to take their praces in the line of march. The parade will march along Queen street and through the Dufferin street gate into the exhibition grounds, where the salute will 'be taken near the centre of the Dominion government building by General Sir Arthur Currie, dominion president of the Canadian Legion, After passing the saluting point, the parade will break up into sections and parade around the grounds. Later in the afternoon, refreshments will be served to veterans and their. fam- flies in marquees behind the gov- ernment building by the women's auxiliary of the Canadian Legion. An interesting announcement is possible through the efforts of M. McIntyre Hood, chairman of the local Legion executive, and meme ber of the provincial executive, who has been successful in securing 50 free - admission tickets for the wives, children, mothers or fath- ers of Legion members to the ex- hibition grounds on Saturday for Warriors' Day. There are only 50 of these tickets, as that is the max- imum number that could be secur- ed for Oshawa, and these will be available for distribution to the Legion members who desire them at the meeting of the.local branch on Thursday evening of this week. The charge which is being made for bus transportation to and from the exhibition is one dollar por person for the return trip, which includes the drive right into the exhibition grounds. For the con- venience of the local ex-service men who wish to join the party, tickets are being placed on sale at' Simcoe street north, and also at Mike's Place on King street west, where they can be secured. A special meeting of the Legion is being held on Thursday evening of this week to complete the final arrangements for the day, and a large attendance of Legion mem- bers and ex-service men is request- ed. The officers of the Canadian Legion are particularly anxious that Oshawa should make a good showing in the Warriors' Day par- ade, and appeal to all ex-service men in the city to join with them on this occasion.

The mo- tion which was introduced by Al- derman McLeese, chairman of the industrial commission, reads as fol- lows: h "In consideration of dealings with two concerns interested in avi- ation and the manufacture of air- planes, desiring a location immedi- ately adjoining an airport, the In- dustrial Committee recommends that the city council take the neces- sary action to secure a survey for the proposed establishment of un civic airport and that the Depart.' ment of National Defence, of the Dominion Government be request- ed to assist the city in this mat- ye ter." ini »t The motion was passed unani- mously and several members of the council voiced the opinion that cit- jes which did not have civic air- ports would soon be behind the times.
