FOR LEAGUE TITLE Defeated High School Nine Seven Members Suggested "In the organization of such boards, the department suggests (Special to The Times) that they shall be composed of Pickering, Sept. 16.--An in- (ad of whow Fifty years ago today Wm. B. Couch, Jas. A, Johnston and Jas H. Cryderman opened a dry goods, men's wear and staples business in the town of Bowman- ville in the Power Block just newly erected on the south side of King Street, Today the same firm name stands over the doors of the same building, but there has been a change in the person- nel of the firm, and what vast changes there has been in the commodities sold over those counters, The first used the west side of the store, but when the post cf- fiice was moved some years laier from the east side, these enter- prising merchants enlarged their business and took over the east side as well. Mr. Johnston was the first: member of the firm to be removed by death which o:- curred after about 25 years in business and only last year the second member of the firm, Mr. Couch, 'passed to his heavenly re- ward. Mr. Cryderman, the only surviving member of the origin- al firm, does not now take an active interest in the business, but his son, Lawry Cryderman, is a parther and active worker, and Mr. C. Avery Johnston, son of the late J, A. Johnston, is the present manager, the firm being re-organized into a joint stock Last Night by Score of 15 to 2 Front Street won the second game of the town league play- offs against the High School Nine last evening, the score at the end of the 7th inning being 15-2, Possibly one of the biggest crowds of the season was in at- tendance, Front Street played a stellar game in the field and a snappy double play in the fourth by Hall and Osborne brought forth the applause of the sport fans. The School Boys were un- able to connect for safe hits ex- cept in the 3rd inning when they secured three and only one other hit in the 7th. Front Street se- cured 13 hits and with walks and errors got 15 men around the bases and home The third and deciding game will be held this evening at Cen- tral School commencing sharp at 6.30. The winners will be de- clared the champions of the town league which also entitles them to the Bowmanville Business Men's Association silver trophy. Front Street were the winners of the silver cup last year. Cameron, Large and Bottrell were the umpires, and will handle the game this evening. OLD OSHAWA BOY RETURNS HOME T0 SPEND BIRTHDAY (Continued from page 1) School where he wag taught by Miss Alice Carswell, now Mrs, Houston. He remembers Mrs. Houston as being "as pretty as a picture," and still has a little book entitled "Frog Annie" which was a gift from her over half a century ago. One of his boyhood activities was to blow the organ on a Sun- day in St. George's Church. Mr. Kirkpatrick, in recalling old days, very distinctly remem- bers hearing a public lecture in St. George's Church in which the speaker made the assertion, "I would not be surprised if within ten years I can get into a pair of wings and fly to Toronto." This | prophecy has come true, although if took more than the ten-year period to do so. A Big Event In the days of Mr.. Kirkpat- rick's boyhood a journey to Tor- onto was a hig event in any per- son's life, while a trip to "Guy's Point", the popular picnic resort of those days, was a whole day's outing taking quite a bit of plan- . ning for the journey to and fro. The town policeman, if Mr, Kirkpatrick remembers rightly, was Mr. Gurlley, and is recalled 8 "a terror to us boys. We could not peek into a ball game or climb a fence for an apple with- out first making sure that he was not around." Early Lacrosse He distinc ly recalls an early la crose game, which he descrbes as having been 'quite rough," be- tween the Oshawa team and a team 'of full-blooded Indians. The Indians paraded through the town headed by the Chief of the tribe dressed in feathered head- dress and full regalia. There was a small race track in those days south of King Street and it was there that la- crosse and other sports took place, while a small fair was held annually at the same place. Many Changes There have been very many changes in Oshawa since the boy. hood days of Mr. Kirkpatrick. One of the big industries was the Joseph Hall plant while the Mc- Laughlin Carriage Works was flourishing. Tw furniture manu- facturing concerns, Luke's and Gibb's, employed a number of hands as also did Glen's. Foun- ry.

DISNEY BLOCK, Oshawa Opp. Post Office Phone 1516 Successful Designer As a boy Mr. Kirkpatrick was fond of drawing and has develop- ed his talent for art along com- mercial lines. As a result he is to-day a successful designer of furniture whose work is very favorably known to manufactur- ers in North Carolina, Georgia, Illinois, New York and Canada. The idea of spending his birth. day in Oshawa was, apparently, a sudden whim. He had to visit this Dominion on business and whila here 'thought it would he nice to spend my birthday in Oshawa," according to his own explanation. Mr. Kirkpatrick has discover- ed very few persons to whom he was known in his boyhood, and to-day was re-doubling his ef- forts to discover links with the past.

The dead child was found by a summer resident at Rouge River contained in a small box. The baby, a boy, was evidently newly born and an examination reveal- ed a bad fracture of the skull, a post-mortem being conducted by Dr. G. JL. Bird of this city. Poliée Constable Chester, of Pickering, conducted a prelimin- ary investigation into the finding of the body and notified the coro- ner, who ordered an inquest. The date of completing the inquest is uncertain, owing to the difficulty of securing witnesses. There does not appear to be the slightest clue as to either the identity of the dead baby, or how it met death, although appear- ances indicate that a crime had been committed by some person.
