THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, JULY 26, 1932 PAGE EIGHT IRISH by KATHLE EYES EN NORRIS Sella Carscadden, blue-eyed, coppery= haired and 21, lost her job in a down- town New York office because she took it on herself to make three concise ef- ficlent lines of a long involved un- tical letter dictated by the vice president's son. When she reached her poor flat home in the Bronx, she found that her older broiner Joe also had lost his job. While Rngela, her younger sister-crippled by Infantllue paralysis, was admiring a blue leather purse She- tla had bought at a church rummagt rale for a dime, she found $50 in a little inside pocket. Their widowed mother, insisted that Shella return the money. Mrs. Carscadden protested then Sheila appeared in an old worn dress of Angela's and with the an- nN sced plan of Pleading pavery when She saw the owner of the purse, who turned out to.be Gertrude Keane, fos- ter-daughter of Judge Paul McCann. Sheila saw mm first. He told her to keep the money, then found by-ques- tioning that she was a daughter of Cornelius (Con.) Carscadden, an old friend. Sheila was ashamed of her masquerade when Mrs. McCann out- fitted her with a pretty coat and hat of one of her daughters. Then Shella saw Peter McCann, the boy of whom she had dreamed since the one dav they had spent together the previous summer at the beach but his marri- age to Gertrude Keane was now only several days off. He managed to slip Sheila a note asking her to meet him the next day at a law library on Broad- way. In a secluded room there Peter quickly explained why he had been unable to find her in the city, INSTALMENT IX Her cheeks grew red. She con- tinued to look at Peter steadily, but there was discomfort in her feeling now. She wished she had not come to meet him so impul- "You'll say, I walked with you to your cabin, when you chauged, after we swam," Peter, needing no encouragment, was continuing. "Right! I did. But all those cabins looked alike; I couldn't find it the next day, There were thousands of them! "All right. This girl and I at it off," he began again with gusto; "we like each other. We have din- ner together, and we dance to- gether, and along about midnight I find myself telling her that I love her--get me? And it' was vrue, too! I said to that girl, "You and I are going to be married, Saoeila I'm coming to see you Tuesday night, and meet your folks, and Just as soon as we get ready to tell them--" "Yes, I know," Sheila interposed, scarlet-cheeked. "But--" "Wait a minute--wa-a-it a min- ute!" the boy said, with an up raised hand. "That's the last she hears of me, isn't it? And what does she think I am? Why, she thinks I'm a skunk!" It was all vehemently delivered, with an air of honesty and deter- mination. And somehow it only made her want to laugh--or to cry-- Sheila's face reflected a very rainbow of emotions, as he went on, "Well, I come back to town, I try to find my girl, it cans be done," Peter summarized it rapid- sively, this man who was to marry another girl in less than a week's time, "Listen how it all happened" be- gan Peter. "I go off for a beach picnic with a couple of fellers, don't I? And I mect a giri--tne girl" Perhaps there was change in him. But really in herself was so sudden and so| shocking that Sheila was quite un- able to do anything except grave- ly nod her head. "I say to myself that I never met any girl like this in my life," he went on, speaking always very ser- iously, almost fiercely, and locking at her across the folded arms. "Good!" Boys were like this. They loved themselves. And he was only a y. "Well," he continued. "We have lunch together, we talk together, we go in swimming.

Sheila thought that this time, on her way home, she would stop and get Ma one of the special chocolate cakes. She would wash her gloves and talk to Angela, and the dear familiar routine of Saturday after- noon would reeslablished itself. Caught Large Salmon Brockville.--E. €. Cossitt had the good fortume to catch a sal- mon weighing 20 pounds while fishing with G.D.Scovil on Devil Lake.

HAS FULLY MODERN PLANT Supplies We for Oshawa, Cobourg and Other Towns A reporter for the local press had a most interesting experience several days ago when he was privileged to make an inspection trip through the plant of the City Pure Ice Co. in Oshawa, which since June last has been making deliveries of ice in Co- bourg as well as supplying the needs of the City of Oshawa, Bowmanville, Whitby and other surrounding towms and villages. The inspection was well worth the time spent, as it revealed just what pains are being taken to give the consumer a product, clean and pure in every way, which no . househblder should have least compunction in using for his every need. On entering the plant, we were shown the large electrically- driven compressor which pumps ammonia solution through some two miles of piping, which passes through large tanks filled 'with calcium brine solution. This brine solution is kept constantly in motion by two agitators at a freezing temperature. In the solution are set large metal tanks, containing city - filtered water, weighing three hundred and twelve pounds each, The constant ecirculaticn of the brine solution around the tanks grad- ually freezes the water, this pro- cess taking in the neighborh'dod of forty-six hours. While the freezing process is under way, air under pressure is forced into the water in each tank keeping the chlorine, which is uged in fil- tration, in circulation so that it will not freeze into the block. When the tank is almost frozen solid the little water remaining is sucked out taking with it the chlorine so that the block of ice instead . of being white at the centre is erystal clear throughout. When the freezing process is tank is raised from the brine and carried on an yverhead crane to a machine in which the tank is subjected to a bath of hot water which releases the ice from the tank. It then slides on a short to the storaze compartment, This compartment, | which is kept at winter tempera- pipes running the walls, contains some four hundred and sixty tons of ice in storage insuring the com- pany"s customers of an adequate supply at all times and under all conditions. When deliveries ture with brine along are to be 1 made blocks are taken from the storage space and passed through a scoring machine which aececur- ately cuts the blocks both length- wise amd crosswise. This ensures the customer of accurate weight, which is a great improvement over the old system, whereby the man delivering the ice was forced to cut up a block to suit the needs of the customer. Each block can be cut into sections of twenty-five, fifty or one hundred pounds, depending on the re- quirement, It was pointed out also that with the use of filtered water the ice can be' used in drinks and in close contact with all food stuffs with perfect safety. Since inaugurating a sales centre on Division Street South in Cobourg the capacity of the Oshawa plant has been increased by ten tons and it is hoped in the near future that an increase in business in Part Hope and Co- bourg will enable the company to install an ice-making plant in Cobourg, which will be the first step toward the building of an artificial ice "arena for skating and hockey. In order to insure perfect de- livery of ice in Cobourg, the City Pure Ice Company have secured a large truck, of special hermeti- cally-sealed construction, capable of carrying six toms on each trip Since the middle of June the company has been making four trips a week to Cobourg, where the ice is stored on Division Street South from which it ig dis- tributed both by trucks and cash and carry, The company are in a position, with their increased facilities, to take care of any in- creased need that might arise, being able to increase their num- ber of deliveries on short notice. The fact that each block is twelve pounds over three hundred pounds insures the customer that he will secure accurate weight, the cxtra weight being allowed for shrinkage. The hermetically- sealed truck also provides a means of transportation, during which there is little, if any, loss in weight.
