' In commenting on these signs he says: "The town of Bowmanville greets the tourist In this manner and bids him goodbye lke this" with arrows pointing to the signs depicted. The funny part about this Is the fact that at the last meeting of the town council these signs which, have received such favorable comment from a United States visitor were practically scrapped Counelllors thought that they were too much like the old village style and not in keeping with the size of the town but where they get this idea from-ds hard to tell, Oshawa, some aix or seven times as large ax Bow manville; is only too pleased to greet visitors In a like manner Evidently one tourist liked the idea also for he made note enough of It to depict the welcome in a large newspaper, Possibly when the council hear that the signs, as they are now bring forth favorable comment from visiting tourists they may soe fit to leave them with thelr words of welcome and goodbye, On the other hand it Is not expected that they will as they will likely feel that to revoke the order might soem out of order Nover-the-less Bowmanville securgd some free ad. vortising by these signs as they wera In the summer time, Perhaps the reason behind the council's decision to remove them is as Councillor Strike intimated that it ehicken thieves or rohbers were leaving the town It seems hardly correct to say that the town and the thieves are sorry to part or that on thelr entrance the town Ia glad to meet them, Of course it might be felt that robbers are so bent on their nefarious deeds that they would not bother to take note of the welcome or the pleasant goodbye, BOWMANVILLE MAN APPEARS CHARGED WITH NON SUPPORT Duncan A. Fletcher I Re. manded Until September 18th Duncan A. Fletcher, of Bowman- ville, was remanded until Sept, 18 when he appeared beforq two jus- tices of the peace In Bowmanville yvosterday charged with the non sup. port of his family, Mr Davidson, J.P, of Cobourg, and John Lyle, J.I'. were the presiding justices, D. A, J, Swanson, of Oshawa, who represented the family in a lengthy speech, asked the court to force the man to remain away from his resis dence uptil the case was tried, "This man," he said. "is a dang. erous man with a long record and I will only agreg to an adjourn. ment on these terms, that he leave the house and remain away until the case is tried, The family are afraid of violence and are in fear of him" The accused, however, claimed his rights as the owner of the house, He claimed that no one had a right to turn him from his own property and 'the record men. tioned by Mr, Swanson had nothing what so ever Lo do with the press ont caso, Col. ¥.

THe cartoon depicted the characters created by Maurice Bod. dipgton, well known announcer of C.K.O0.W, at Toronto and showed the familar Wong Foo, Gustave, Major Walpole, Mr, McPherson and Guissepyl, all of whom are familar to listeners in on Canada's Cheerio Station. The cartoons are the em- yodyment of what one would ime agine them to be when broadcast and the Telegram makes some nice romarks about Bernard Mitchell and his work, Of course all em- ployees of the Geodyear are famil- far with his work for they see it twico a month in the Goodyear periodical the "Wingfoot Clan" but for those who are not and who care to wee this artist's work they should pay a visit to the Cream of Barley Camp and see the portraits of famous men which ara drawn vary cleverly on the Politieal Stump While wa are talking about Ber nurd we might as well mention that he ix now empolyed in the C.G KW, station at Bowmanville as an oper- ator.

Incidentally receipt of the drawing and decision to publish ft in the Telegram radio page has ro- vonled a rather interasting series of facts. Mr. Mitehell is twenty- one years of age. having been born in Bowmanville and attended pub lie and high schools there. He was always Interested in thiggs sclent!- fio however, ospacially radio, but he was also keenly interested in cartoon drawings, He developed this, however, as 4 sideline, and took a complete commercal course in cartooning. Kor some years he worked in the ofce of the Good- voar Tire and Rubber Company at Bowmanville and he then applied for and obtalned a position of oper- ator at the transmission plant where he is now employed. He is keenly Interoste in short wave transmitting also and Is occupied in are time at present construct. Ing & "ham" transmitter, "He has contributed his work to The Telegram on former occasions but this is the first time he has had his work in the radio page. He conducts a regular monthly cartoon worvice for a phamphlet published by the company with which he was formerly employed and his work as will be ween from the above is ex- coptionally good."
