ORMISTON ephone COUNCIL, LEGION WILL C0-OPERATE IN RELIEF WORK Town Made Generous Re- sponse in Sale of Poppies and Wreaths The Relief Committees of the Town Council and Whitby Branch of the Canadian Legion will work pand in hand in the administra- tion of relief to meedy families in Whitby this winter, operating under an arrangement similar to that entered into last winter be- tween the Council and Legion. At the Town Council meeting on Monday evening a deputation from the Legion with Secretary ¥. M. Lomax and Chaplain Rev. ¥. Ralph Adye, as spokesmen, was heard on this subject, and a conference between the Council and Legion Committees to ar- range details of a co-operative plan to prevent overlapping and promote efficiency will be held in the Legion club rooms next Mon- day. evening. Council, in agreeing to this conference, assured the deputa- tior that it was in sympathy with the relief work of the Legion and wished to co-operate in any way with their relief committee, Whitby's Fine Record On behalf of the Provincial Command, Rev. Mr. Adye thank- ed the citizens of Whithy through the Council for their generous response to the Poppy Day and Remembrance Day wreath ap- peals, The Legion chaplain told Council that with one exception, no town with a similar popula- tion and the same opportunities had done better than Whitby in ¥oppy Day contributions and the purchase of wreaths, Whitby he stated" had established a one Lundred per cent. record in the response to the wreath appeal. The = enormous demand wr wreaths everywhere, said Rev. Mr. Adye, had given employment for a considerable time to forty- one industrially unemployable men, disabled veterans of the Great War, Mayor Bowman thanked Rev. Mr. Adye for his remarks, assur- ing him that Council was proud of the town's record.

The C.N.R. hoped to be able to do the work next year, the letter advised. The Town Clerk advised Coun- cil that the medical health offi- cer had instructed him to get estimates on the cost of the work which will be done by the Board of Health at once and charged to the railway. The lack of conven- iences at the station here has lorg been a source of complaint.

There is considerable business. for Com- mittees, and one afternoon will be devoted to hearing the cham- pion orators at School Fairs held in the County this sum: ier, This is an annual oratorical feast. Bills For Charity If the number of bills present- ed to Council for the keep of indigents in various hospitals, more particularly Oshawa, is any criterion, then Old Man Depres- sion has been working hard late- ly in the various municipalities of the County. It took the County Clerk, R. D. Ruddy, the best part of an hour to read out ac- counts from hospitals far and near, and from Children's Ald Shelters for tlie maintenance of children. The charity accounts totalled over $2,000. Half of the bill will be paid by the munici- palities from which the indigents come, and the other half by the County, provided, however, that the accounts are not repudiated. Many Resolutions There was the usual crop of resolutions from other counties dealing with various subjects for presentation to the provincial government, which Council was asked to endorse. Road taxation was the keynote of most of them, Tax Busses and Trucks The Council of the United Counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry forwarded a reso- lution asking for endorsation by Ontario County, urging that a higher tax be placed by the De- partment of Highways on busses and trucks using the provincial highways for commercial pur- poses, that the speed limit for busses and trucks be made the same as that for motor cars, and that the time schedules for busses be submitted to the High- ways Department for approval, also that a closer supervision be made of bus and truck drivers, The resolutions se et forth that maintenance of Ighway costs were greatly increased on county and provincial roads on account of bus and truck traffic, Resolu- tion goes to the Committee on Legislation and Memorials Jor consideration. | County Building Repairs Recommendations submitted by the Grand Jury at the last Assize Court to Mr, Justice Raney with regard to the county court house, jail'and House of Refuge, were referred to the County Property Committee, In the court house a new lock on the door of the grand jury room is recom- mended, and at the jafl a new stove in the wash room and en- largement of quarteys for women lare recommended. At the House of Refuge the removal of two patients suffering from. mental troubles was atked for, 'Would Reduce Salaries The County of Lanark forward- ed a lengthy resolution with sev- eral recommendations dealing with public school inspectors.

T. Hoar, Secretary-Treasurer of the Hoar Transport Company. in ocn- versation with The Oshawa Daily Times last night. Arrangements for the sale were completed last week and the Hoar Transport Company is now operat- ing the businesses of both former companies. On a query by The Times as to when the sale would be effective as far as the public were concerned, Mr. Hoar replied, "It is effective right now." "The taking over of the Larke Transport Company business will enable us to provide a much greater service to the patrons of both of the former organizations," said Mr, Hoar. Mr. Hoar also said that the new company will serve its Patrons with 120 trucks and will practically cover Ontario, particularly on No, 2 highway from Belleville to Wind- sor, as well as the Niagara Penin- sula, The Larke Transport Company was organized about eight years ago and has been operating since that time wth Mr. Larke as its head.

M. KIRKWOOD GAVE ADDRESS Ladies' Dean at U. of T. College Spoke to Women's 'Canadian Club Mrs. M. Kirkwood, M.A., Lad- les' Dean of one of the colleges in the University of Toronto, was the speaker at the regular meet- ing of the Women's Canadian Club in St. John's Parish Hall yesterday afternoon. Mrs. J. H. Il. Jury, the president presided at the meeting. Mrs. Kirkwood spoke on "Wo- men's Place in Society," and de- livered a very enlightening ad- dréss on a somewhat perplexing subject. She was able she said, n her opening remarks to speak with a certain amount of experi- nce behind her. Her work at he university had placed her in a position to study a question .that interested her tremendous- ly, The woman's position in the world she said, was very differ- ent today to the position of a woman a generation ago, What was right a generation ago was wrong today and the main fact to make this change appeared to her to be the fact that women were today working to a great extent outside of the home as compar- ad with a generation ago when a woman's place was always sup- posed to be in the home. To- day they have greater opportun- ities and a wider scope of activi- tiles and she wondered whether women really enjoyed life better through the change, There was still much discontent among wo- men, Apt Comparisons Comparing the woman of today and the woman Jf yesterday the speaker stated that what was right 60 years ago was wrong to- day. In those days nothing was thought when a group of women rathered together and made their chief business that of gossiping about their neighbors. This was not the same today, Most self- respecting women deprecated gos- siping as an ugly part of life. Yet there must be something wrong with the women of today COUNCIL DECIDES T0 ADVERTISE FOR NEW PLANS (Continued from page 1) former meetings. He referred to the total cost of constructing a sewage disposal plant, stating "we might do far better to take the interest on that money and hand out direct re- lief it necessary, I think we should delay the whole project, Fér my part--" Ald.

Cawker.--~""Don't play to the sallery." Ald, Kirby,~""I have the floor, 1 think. How many Aldermen know the condition of the present plant? If our city officials had taken prober care of it then it would not be in the condition it now is, and at any rate it is operating as well as some of the plants we saw the other day," said Ald Kirby, who stressed the matter of cost to the taxpayers as of the utmost importance. Ald. Hawkes,--"To say that our present plant is operating as well as some of the plants we visited the other day means that experts do not know what they are talking about, I do not know of any plant we saw where the stuff goes out like it does from "gece plant, "As regards an engineer, I hold no brief for anyone but Gore, Na- smith and Storric have been work- ing on this thing, off and on, for the past twelve years. Mr, Storrie advised us then to let other cities do the experimental work and that was good advice." Ald. Morris--"If every man is going to jump up and down and speak two or three times on this matter then I would move that we go into a committee of the whole and have a full, free discussion." Ald, MacDonald seconded this notion, which was Put and declared ost. Ald. Morris.~"Then I would ask, Mr. Mayor, that the rules of debate be enforced." Mayor Marks.--"Yes. They have had their chance but have failed to take it." tion of Resident Engineer. ; 3 the discussion Ald. MacDonald stated that "Gore, Na- smith and Storrie say they will do this work for five per cent of the cost, and we haye to provide the resident engineer. The other man says he will do it for fre per cent of the cost and also he will provide the resident engineer. That is thing to be taken into considera. tion," With the discussion continuing Ald. Sam n suggested that competitive Fark might be called for from anv engineers who were willing to submit them, and declared himself as willing to sponsor such an: in the form of a motion. He found a prompt seconder in Ald. Kirby, and all previous motions and amendments = were withdrawn in favor of Ald. S. Jackson's sugges tion as previously stated, for it seemed the men state that 'women are more catty and nar- row than are those of the swran- er sex. As she saw jt, happiness and unhappiness were relative mat- ters. What proved to be the happiest part of, one woman's life did not have any attraction for another. This of course, de- pended a great dzal on where the person lived. she quoted a lady in Prince Ed- ward Island who. had a family of 15 children, lived on a farm and enjoyed life immensely, while a voman living in a city with the same family could hardly be hap- py under the circumstances, Wo- men are divided into categories she added and yet can belong to beth categories. Queen Mary was a very high personage and a society woman and yet in addi- tion she was a devoted mother to her family, She found time to be both a good queen and a gond mother. Bringing Up Girls Speaking of the mother bring- ing up her child, Mrs. Kirkwood stated that a child should be en- couraged to follow what activity was most congenial to it for in that activity was found true hap- pizess. Girls should be brought up -with two purposes in mind, first the purpose of being a suc- cessful housekeeper and mother in the event of marriage and sec- ondly to be a useful member of the community if she should not marry, While the chief thing should be to bring a child up to follow a good occupation thought should also be given to some oth- er line in case that activity can- not be carried on. Mrs. Jury expressed the thanks of the club to Mrs. Kirkwood for her splendid address. The next speaker at the club will be Rev. Dr. Boyle of Cobourg BUSINESS MEN DISCUSS SPORTS Support of Association Is Pledged to Junior Hockey Team The regular monthly meeting of Bowmanville Business Men's Association was held in the Bal- moral Hotel last night with a fair attendance of merchants out. A letter from the Ontario Mar- keting Board suggesting that the town use all Ontario potatoes this year and as very few pota- toc from outside of this prov- ince are ever sold in this town no action was taken, Dr. Devitt reporting for the sports committee stated that a settlement had been effected bhe- tween the committee and the Front Street team and that they had accepted the $25 offered them as a prize for winning the league schedule, This sum would provide them with sweaters but each man would have to pay for the crest to go on them himself. Dr. Devitt also reported that no settlement had yet been made regarding the hockey situation and his committee could come to no agreement as to whether the association should manage the hockey teams this year or not. Tle matter was finally turned Yack to the committee to see the manager of the Junior team and promise the support of the as- sociation to the club, A new cup is to be purchased' immediately and given to the Front street to hold for one year in recognition of their winning the schedule. This cup will thep go up for perpetual competition. Arrangements were made whereby a number of the Busi- ness Men would attend the for- mal opening of the new Highway to Blackstock next week and would attend the banquet and dance that would follow. The Hon Leopold Macauley, Minister of Highways {s going to open the road at Enniskillen. Geo, Wade and his Cornhuskers will be pre- sent to provide the music for the dance which will be held in the Badminton Hall, Other discussions were ' held concerning the holding of Dar- lingtom- Township and Cartwright Township days by the merchants. The matter of having a Santa Claus parade will come before a special meeting of the executive on Thursday.

Through the kindness of Norvil J. Wilson they have secured the front part of the Ontario Mo- tor Sales building on Simcoe Street South for their Toy Shop headquar- ters this year, The boys wily got only do the work of repairing toys but will also have the fine large window for dis- playing same. At the present time they have very few toys to work on and are all set and ready to have cc atributions made by the citizens of the city to this worthy cause. The Oshawa Firemen are co-op- rating again this year with the Boy Scouts and are undertaking the work of repairing larger toys such as velocipedes, sleighs, doll car- ~'awes, wagons, ete. This work thev will do at the Fire Hall but this 'ear none of the toys are to be de- livered or left at the Fire Hall The Bov Scouts are again appéal- ing to the public for contributions to this work and if any citizens who have toys will phone to Harvey Fuller, phone 2939, or Reg, Terrett, phone 1119W., someone will call for them. Or toys may be sent to The Times office or Ontario Motor Sales building, 99 Simcoe St. S. All will understand that the work of distributing the toys among the children of Oshawa this year is go~ ing to be more important than ever and it is hoped that the citizens will make a hearty and prompt re- sponse so that the boys can ge} to work and have the toys ready' for distribution in Christmas week. WELFAR: DRIVE 1S OFF TODAY TO SPLENDID START (Continued from page 1) too dependent on charitable asSist- ance. The giving of relief, she said, was only a temporary expedient, like giving the medicine after the doctor had diagnosed, and the most 'important work was found in entire- ly eliminating the disease. Cas®s Described Miss Jackson gave some vivid de- tails of types of cases assisted, and said that, should any criticisms as to individual cases arise, the board would be only too willing to give full explanations, Out of over 1000 tamilies which had been clothed and 400 which had been given assist- ance in other ways, less than 400 had been found to be imposters, and she felt that this was proof of how carefully the work of investigation was done, . Ross Mackinnon, in expressing thanks to those who had turned out for the meeting, also enumerated a long list of citizens and organiza- tions to which thanks were due, and said that the work already done was sufficient to indicate that the campaign would be a success. All Signed Pledges With the use of lantern slides, instructions were then given to the workers, and while this was in pros gress, W. M. Gilbert rose with the suggestion that all workers sign their personal Pledges at once, so that they could go out to meet the public with the knowledge that they had themselves subscribed. The suggestion was readily accepted by the whole gathering, and the pledge cards were distributed and, handed out to all present to be signed . As a result, every worker left the hall wearing the button of those who have given, In closing the meeting, Mr. Mac- kinnon pleaded for an intensive ef fort on the part of all workers, closing with the injunction "We dare not fail" YOUNG PEOPLE GENEROUS At the meeting of the Young People's League of the King Street United Church last night, it was decided to divide the sum of $96.00, proceeds of a play held recently, between the Assoclated Welfare Societies and the relief work of the church. A cheque for $48.00 was accordingly sent tr the Welfare Fund headquarters this morning, and a similar amount turned over to the relief fund treasurer of the church. OBITUARY THE LATE ALFRED A.

It is just over two years since this group of women workers was organized, 'but in that time it has given wonderfu) service on behalf of the needy and distress- ed families of the city, What is more important, it is organized to continue this work in the coming winter, and throughout the years that lie ahead. It was in October, 1929, that a group of women met in the library and decided to organize the Wo- men's Welfare League for the help- ing of the poor and unemployed. From the inception the idea of the organization was to develop more along the lines of social re-estab- lishments, The primary object was to help people to help themselves through mothers' meetings and lec- tures to them on the care of child- ren and infants, housenold manage- ment, budgeting of incomes, also practical instruction in household science, It was also proPosed to conduct sewing classes tor girls, day nurseries and other features of work in the desired direction. Up to the present, however, the Women's Welfare League has been 50 occupied by immediate reef, and so cramped as to quarters that this work has suffered somewhat, al- though certain developments have taken place, as will be outlined later. First Steps Two weeks atter organization, a meeting was held at the home of Mrs. Schofield, and a group, or club formed for the purpose of col~ lecting and mending used clothes, making investigations and distribut~ ing clothes to the needy. Six other such groups were formed, and rooms in The 'limes' building were pro- cured, Members from the different groups were chosen to fill the posts of nresident and secretary-treasurer, and to act on different committees. Une dollar a month was contribut- ed by each member, to be used in purchasing new clothes. The next step taken by the Wo- men's Welfare League was to ask the mayor to call a meeting, and speakers from Toronto addressed the citizens on social work there. At this meeting an association of welfare workers, with representa- tives from churches and other social agencies throughout the city, was formed, The Women's Welfare League co-operated with this new organization, its president. being a member of the board of directors. During that first year the Women's Weltare League made most of. its own investigations and raised three- quarters of its own funds by per- sonal contributions, and by money raised on a hope chest, 312 families and 1,163 individuals were given as- sistance in that year, During that year, the members became convinced that the work could not be carried on scientifically without the services of a trained social worker, and it was decided that such a worker be employed tor the whole year. It was felt very necessary that such a worker should be in the city continuously, to ketp mm touch with families and to mak investigations during the sun ae mgnths when immediate relief work was not so pressing, In the work- ing year or 1930-31, 701 families, in- cluding 2,469 individuals were given aid, Social Welfare Activities During the last two years, the social service work has not seen great development, as both energy and money have been diverted al- most entirely into the channel of immediate relief, The League, how- ever, was able to carry on a sewing club, and rooms were obtained where women could be instructed in making or altering garments for themselves. The League also had the willing help of some of those it had assisted m cleaning the rooms in doin necessary carpenter work, in canning fruit and tomatoes, and in other tasks, Several families were moved from unhealthy quarters to larger os cleaner homes, while new furniture was supplied them, and they were able to make a fresh start under the eye of the social worker, This year a social service groug has made a beginning under Mrs «£. GU. Mills, and some of the work which had been an ideal in the be- ginning is now on its way. The uitimate object of the' Wo- men's Welfare League is a commun- ity house, where community clubs mothers' clubs and day nurseries may be established but this is still in the dim distance. In the mean: time, the work of giving immediate relief will be carried on, and the Women's Welfare League will con- tinue to be the strong arm of the Associated Welfare Societies, The Officers The nrres..at officers of the Wo- men's Welfare League are: Presi- dent, Mrs A. Williams; Vice-presi- dent, Mrs. E, V. Lander; Treasure: Mrs, 1. Caldwell; Assistant treas- urer, Mrs. J. E, Findly; Secretary. Mrs, C. O Miller; Ass'stant secres tary, Miss Grace Burns, BAND.
