CITY TREASURER'S DEPT. Oshawa, May 30, 1931 Bowmanville Daily Times Representative's Phone No. 53 SPEAS BEFORE "ROTARY C08 Toronto Parks Superintend- ent Tells of Value of : Playgrounds E, J. Collins, general superin- tendant of parks for Toronto, was the speaker at yesterday's meet- ing of the Rotary Club. Mr, Col- lins gave a very informative and instructive talk on the value of a park to a community which proved of especial value to the Rotarians who are now preparing a park for the use of citizens of the town. He illustrated his remarks with lantern slides showing what had been accomplished with varions ugly spots in Toronto and also. the layout of the parks which were the envy of cities all over the con- tinent. In a park he saw one of the best investments that could be matle by a town or a service club for it brought in its wake, the greatest amount of joy, com- fort. and pleasure to the towps- people. He urged the Rotarians to go ahead with their plans en the park and also hoped that in time, bit by bit ball fields, tennis courts, bowling greens, and other sports facilities would be jacor- porated in the park. He also urz- ed that whatever land was pur- chased for park purposes, as much of the natural beauty is possible be conserved and improvements made only when an improvement could be made on the natural landscape Rotarian Fred Cryderman ex- pressed the thanks of the club at the close of the address and the speaker was introduced by Mr. J. H. H. Jury who has been a person- al friend for many years. Guests at the luncheon were local nuseryman, Mr. S. J. Jack- man and Royal Jackman of the Jackman Nurseries, Mr. E, . Woods of the Brookdale Nurser- ies, Mr. T. Larmour of the Kings- way nurseries, and Mr. Bathole- mew, of the Downham Nurseries. 'Rotarian, Rev. A. G. Emmett of Port Hope' club was also a guest at the club together with Mr. Arthur Baker, landscape architect of Bowmanville. PORT HOPE YOUNG PEOPLE PRESENT INTERESTING PLAY Bowmanville Audience En- joyed "The Little Bridesmaid" Before a fairly large audience in St. John's Parish Hall last night the Young People of St. John's Anglican Church at Port Hope presented their three act comedy "The Littlest Bridesmaid." The play was received with great en- thusiasm and was eitremely well acted. The story centered around an extraordinary pretty young lady who for the first time in her life was to attend a wedding as the bridesmaid, The night previous to the wedding the bridesmaid, Carol by name was supposed to have at- tended a party going in the car with' a youth from next door Peter. The latter was unable however, to get the old car going and the young lady much to her dislike had to stay home in the large house alone. With the lights turn- ed low and with the phonograph going she did not hear the en- trance of a man with a flashlight 'ho on discovery she believed to e a burglar and an awfully pol- te burglar at that. The young '| lady in question immediate let her romantic mature run away with her and felt strange liking for the gentleman who admitted that he went to prison twice each week. So when Peter returned she hid him and later when the maid and the gardener Maise and Jason, two very Irish people entered, and the the lights went out when Maise was telling her adventures with the much lamented and departed grandfather through a medium. The burglar then appeared with his flashlight. Maisie went into hy- terics under the couch and Jason just did as the burglar told him while he made good his mistake, The next day, a wedipg day, the house was in an uproar with Maisie still recounting her adven- tures with the ghost and the brid- esmaid still wondering where her friend of the previous night had zone. He latef re-appeared only to be caught by Peter and the gard- ener and be trussed up. For a while the preparations for the wedding went ahead he was for- gotten and when everyone was ready, bride, groom, bridesmaid, maid of honor and parents, it was found that the minister had not arrived. While discussing what should be done the gardener and Peter. brought the' burglar in trussed up like a stuffed turkey only to find that he was the miss- ing minister. Of course in this as in all plays everything turned out alright, the bride and groom were married, the maid of honor and the best man, were as good as married and .eyen -little Carol fell in love with -the youthful Peter who had been' paying her court throughout the play. : . The play was exceptionally well done and was much enjoyed. The cast of characters were: Judith Price, the bride, Miss Edith An- sell; Dudley, the groom, Philip Ryan: Mrs. Price, the bride's other, Miss Eva Collins; Mr. Price, just dad, Tom Kennedy; Carol Gray, the Littlest Brides- maid, Muriel Mercer; Peter Staf- ford, the boy next door, Tom Mur- phy; Miss Flossie, aunt of the bride, Miss Kennedy; Sterling Pratt, the best man, Mr. Jack Winfield. Ann the maid of honor, Mable Milne; Maisie, the Irish maid, Mrs. Gordon Scott; Jason, the Irish gardener, Mervin Law- son; Police. officer, Jack Noble; Mar Beth the small sister, Helen McMahon; The Minister, Herbert Winfield.

Many sincerely complimentary things were said yesterday even- ing regarding the able manner in which the catering was carried out for the Bignallers' Banquet, held in the Armouries. James Burnley the caretaker of the Armouries, and his wife undertook this task, and the meal provided, compared favorably with the work of profes- sional caterers. STREET TORN UP, The water works department of 'the public utilities commission had a gang of men at work on Simcoe Street South, just' below the Four Corners, tearing up the street on either side on Saturday morning.

DISTRICT SIGNAL CHAMPIONS GUEST AT FINE BANQUET (Continued from page 1) ling section, each member of the section being the recipient of personal congratulations. In addressing this most happy gathering Major Smith stated "The regiment is proud, and just- ly proud, of its signalling section, Just. one thing remains, for you to keep together so that it will be possible for us to meet in a similar gathering next year to celebrate the fact that the On- tario Regiment wins the Domin- fon championship as well as the district championship." Major Smith expressed the greatest regret at the unavoid- able absence of Lt.-Colonel E, C. Hodgins, who commands the bat- talion but who now resides in Kingston, and, acting in his stead, presented Individual cups, repli- cas of the big trophy, to every member of the section, The, toast to 'The Canadian Militia" was proposed by Lieut. A. L. Tosland, M.C., Adjutant of the Regiment, who, in con- gratulating the section stated "after all it is esprit de corps which means everything to a unit of this sort, and just so long as the Signalling Section, or any other section of the unit, wins laurels for the regiment it means a great deal in maintain- ing that spirit which makes us a solid unit', He stated that every member of the Canadian Militia has a certain responsibility resting on his individual shoulders, and that any man should be proud of the record of Canada's citizen sol- diers, Must Not Break Up Militia Replying to this toast Captain (Rev.) 8. C. Jarrett, Chaplain of **» Regiment, stated 'the Eng- » cabulary does not permit Ulli. oice our indebedness, as Canad an citizens and citizens of the British Empire, to the Cana- dian Militia, "Men and women, from time tife, without reason and i little thought, are too prone to belittle the militia. They do not realize that it is the only bul- wark raised for the defense of this fair Dominion of ours. The only hope is that the Govern- ment, any Government, due to the watery sentimentality ex- Pressed 3y those who speak of eace, will never entirely bh up the Canadian Militia, ek "Knowing human nature I say In all seriousness, there is al. ways a possibility of war, and our position is one of preparedness not one of offence. On the out- break of war those pepole who belittle the Canadian Militia, and criticise what we are trying to do, are the first to truckle and fawn upon our soldiers, We do not want that, we want a right and proper attitude here and now', He paid tribute to the men who are still carrying on with their duty as they see it even though monetary grants from the Goy- ernment have beén cut down, stating that while that spirit exists there fs 'nothing to fear for the Canadian Militia. 2 The toast to "The. Ontario Regiment" was, proposed by Cap- fain , Pearson, 'Who stressed the fact that co-operation he- tween all ranks has been most marked, expressing the opinion that the "spirit ofthe. old Regl- ment will carry us through the present trying times'. ? Replying to the toast to The Regiment Lt.-Colonel Frank Chappell, who has studied the history of the battalion in which he takes such a vital interest, spoke of some of the chief land- marks in the life of the Ontario Regiment, Attained Something Worth While He stressed the necessity for cultnvating a true esprit de corps, and commenting on the high honours brought to the unit by the Signalling Section stated "It is rather funny from one point of view, the municipal point of view, If you fellows had been a lacrosse team, a football team or a baseball team, you would have been received by the city with open arms. You would have been met by a band, feted and bane queted, The average citizen does not realize that this Regiment has the best Signalling Section in Military District No. 2 and the second best in the Dominion of Canada. They do not seem to know what you have done, that you have attained something really worth while' through hard work, co-operation, careful study and individual effort", He stated that while the mem- bers of the championship section rightly felt - proud of their achievements, "the thing is the spirit of the regiment. We should feel that it is a prouder thing to belong to the Ontario Regiment. For instance, many of you enter Into athletic contests. You often see entries 'John Smith, unat- tached'. Well, instead of unat- tached why not say 'Ontario Regi- ment' and bear the colours of this famous old unit if not to victory then at least in a well fought fight", He had many stirring stories to tell, gleaned from his collec- tion of historical facts regarding the old 34th Regiment, and in closing quoted "As a man think- eth in his heart, so is he", stat- ing "that is also true of a Regi- ment. The spirit of the Regiment is, after all, the thing that mat- ers and must be fostered and all else will follow". The toast of the evening to "The Signalling Section", was proposed by Captain J, R. Han- ning, with Major R. B. Smita apologizing to the proposer for "stealing his thunder'. "The Signalling Section is the mirror of the regiment," said Major Smith. "It reflects the honour, the efficiency, and the esprit de corps of this old batta- lion. A lot of the credit must be given, I suppose, to Major A. M. Stroud, your commanding officer, You cannot do very much with- out a head and he knows his stuff. The N.C.O's., the rank and file, must also know their stuff and, as Major Stroud himself put it, 'if one man had fallen down on the job we would not have got where we did. These are not bou- Quets I am handing to you, They are hard facts, the proof of their truth being this handsome trophy", said the chairman of the evening. Capt. Hanning also paid trib- ute to the work of Major Stroud, recalling that when he came to the regiment the signalling sec- tion "was nothing to write home about, but Major Stroud took hold and first thing we knew he had a live organization." He also pald tribute to the sterling work of the non-commissioned officers, and to the interest shown by every member of the section, Seregeant 'H. H. Price, the first to reply on behalf of the signal- lers, stated "I believe that every man has tried to do his bit, We appreciate all the kind things that have been said about us, and the honours that have come our way and I am sure the boys will all stick together and try for still bigger and better things." Given Ro! Reception Major Aq M. Strjud was given a rousing reception when he arose to reply and, speaking on behalf of the section which he 'has brought to such a high state of efficiency, thanked the Regiment for their expressions of apprecia- tion of the eefforts of the signal- lers. "Entry into such contests as that in which we are happy to have been successful must be taken as personal as well as col- lective honours", said Major Stroud, who stated that each member of his section had con- sidered the contest in that light, "hence the result", "We have three excellent N. C. 0.'s. I cannot speak too high- ly of them, and after all one can. not do anything with any body of men without good N.C.0.'s," sald Major Stroud who gave a lion's share of the credit to these able assistants of his. "Through the individual ef- fort of every member of the sec- tion honour has been brought to the regiment and I feel sure we are amply repaid by the manner in which the regiment has shown its appreciation." On behalf of the Signalling Section Major Stroud presented group photographs of the section to the Officers' and N.C.0.'s Messes these photos being accept ®d on behalf of the respective messes by Captain Hanning, sec- retary of ths Officers' Mess, and R.S.M. Davis for the N.C.0.'s Mess. . Kind Words For The Times Before the toast list was closed Captain J. A. Mitchell proposed the toast to 'The Press'!, "and referring more especially fo The Oshawa Daily Times stated "the local press has been most kind to us. It has always been behind the Ontario Regiment and I am sure we owe The Times a debt of gratitude. The paper has been of good service to the Regiment and I feel sure we are glad of this op- portunity of expressing our ap- preciation". This toast was replied to by E, + Warburton, representing The The policy of "quality First" has built this giant business "SALADA" TEA 1 'Fresh from the gardens' Times, who expressed his con- fidence that this paper would al- ways be found supporiing the regiment in its efforts towards efficiency, and the hope for a still greater co-operation between the local press and the Ontario Regiment in the future. During the proceedings Major Smith announced that a Stretcher Bearer Section was to be added to the strengh of the regiment in the near future, while he also referred to the arrangements being made for the battalion to go under canvas for the week-end incuding Civic Holiday, August 3rd, at Uxbridge. Community singing was a feat- ure of the evening's program, with Capt. E. Pearson at the piano, while a splendid spirit of comraderie prevailed among all ranks.

Undertakes Definite Campaign (By The Canadian Press) Fort William, Ont. May 29.-- "An aggressive and definite edu- cational campaign on the evils of alcoholism is being undertaken this year by the Women's Christ- ian Temperance nion of Canada," stated Mrs. Louise C. McKinney, president, in outlining the activity of the organization recently. Mrs. McKinney is a former member of the Alberta Legislature. The union is advocating an edu- cational program in connection with Sunday schools, co-operating with the religious educational council of the Dominion, as well as in connection with public schools. Sense of well-being, die- tates of social custom and further ance by commencial interests, said Mrs. McKinney, are the rea- sons for continued use of alcohol despite scientists' warnings that it is an "individual as well as a racial paison." "Canada's drink bill last year amounted to more than $193,620,- 000, of which Ontario's share was $54,945,000," said Mrs McKinney, She claimed that the human wreckage consequent on this wholesale consumption of alcohol was even more disastrous than the diversion of money to unproe ductive channels, FIRE DAMAGES BLOOR ST. BAKERY (Continued from page 1) time, apparently, there was ne sign of any fire, but it must have broken out soon after their de- parture, since Mr. Bright's at- tention was called to jt by the flames coming throug® the reof of the bread storage room. The building itself is of cement block construction, and was not damaged in any way, but part of the roof will have to be rebuilt, over the bread room. The loss is fully covered by insurance, and the work of renovating the pre- mises will start immediately, gv that Mr. Boyko can resume serv- ing his customers as quickly as possible.
