Skitch, the pro- prietor of The Swastika Hotel. Mayor Bowman of Whitby, made the inaugural address. He didn't see why checkers should be looked upon as a winter game only, when it was possible by the installation of outdoor checker boards in. our public parks to convert it into a summer pastime of health, pleasure and profit. "There are, no doubt, men here todav." he said, 'who can beat me at the checker board but I have in my mind's eve another board around which we expect to gather when this checker game is over that the Mavor of Whitby can hold hi® own with anvone present."

M. MacDonald who is attending the injured man, states that while the full extent of his injuries have not yet been ascer- tained and definitely diagnosed, it is felt that the more serious will be found to consist of sev- eral broken ribs. Brick also has a gash on the back of his head, and other cuts and bruises. His condition is not 'considered as very serious, although there is a possjbility of internal injur- fes as he complains of severe pains when he breathes but this is thought to be caused from broken ribs. An X'ray examina- tion was to be made this after- noon when a definite diagnosis of the trouble would be possible. According to the report of Traffic Officer Sidney Hilliard, who investigated the case, leads to the assumption that Brick was struck on the head by the head- light of the car as he stooped over to pick up his hat, the body injuries being caused by either the front wheel or the fender. The driver of the car, Harry Huston, was not detained yester- day afternoon, and after assist- ing in the investigation proceed- ed on his homeward journey to Peterborough. L.T.B.

Pattenick, road manager of the Model Shoe Store, which is to pen its doors tomorrow at 32 Sinicoe Street South, Oshawa, when interviewed by The Times today. A modern retail organization, he said, knows too Well the shortcomings of the ald merchandising methods, and takes full advantage, to the very smallest detail. of new ideas and knowledge of the modern methods of merchandising. The Model Shoe Store organiza- tion has been operating stores for a period of vears. It.has solved the problem of giving the public better values by eliminating the whole- saler"s profit, organizing its own wholesale = distribution centre, and today it is not only wholesaling, but contracting and even manufacturing for its own stores, This places the Model Shoe Store in a position sec- ond to none to enable it to serve the people with desirable merchan- dise at lowest possible prices. Osh- awa ic fortunate in having the Mo- del Shoe Store locate here, con- cluded Mr. Pattenick. : One of the important features is the fact that Oshawa people are to be ziven the preference with regard to those employed in the store. M. Marder, formerly associated with the sho~ business in Oshawa, will manage the Model Shoe Store, which opens at 32 Simcoe Street South, near Athol Street West, to- morrow morning.

Williams Told That De- cision of Board Cannot be Appealed, and That He is Without Means of Redress E. Williams, of this city, a for: mer employe of General Motors, in conversation with a represen- tative of The Times to-day, com= plained very bitterly of the treat- ment recently meted out to him by the Workmen's Compensation Board, the result of which will be that he is forced to ask the City Relief Department for as- sistanca unless the decision of the Board is reversed. Mr. Williams laid the details of his complaint before Mayor Thomas Hawkes who explained that there is, apparently, mo ap- peal from the decisions of the Compensation Board and that the city authorities were powerless to help him except by means of necessary relief for the mainten- ance of his family. Following hig conversation with the. Mayor, Mr. Williams ex- pressed the opinion that his only means of seeking redress was by means of publicity, and gave the following details of his case to The Times for publication.
