POLICE OFFICERS 'HAVE BATTLE 10 "GET EVIDENCE Three Pay Fine As Result Of Raid Saturday Evening Investigating rumors of fighting at 169 Gibb Street, Saturday eve- ning, three Oshawa police officers found themselves in the thick of things the moment they stepped out of their police cruiser, "We arrived about 10.15 p.ih., De- tective Sergeant Alexander told Magistrate F. 8. BEbbs in police courf, Monday morning, in giving evidence t Amos E. Scott, owner of the house; Arnold 8. Scott, his son; Mrs. E. Chenette, a daughter and John McCue, a visitor from Port Perry. "We had to fight our way into the house and then fight our way out," Det. Sgt. Alexander continued. "Mrs. Chenette picked up a milk bottle and clubbed Constable Jo- seph Wright over the wrist with it then she turned on Detective Ser- geant Donald MacLelland and tried to smash it over his head." "What seemed to be the trouble?" 'Crown Attorney A. C. Hall asked Alexander, "They didn't want us to collect any evidence apparently. When we arrived the floor was littered with whiskey and beer bottles. Glasses containing liquor were sitting on the table and in the bedroom. We wanted the bottles and the whiskey as evidence, They apparently were determined that we weren't going to get them." : Police Win The bottles and the glasses and the whiskey the glasses had con- tained were all in court. Although Det. Sgt, Alexander was too modest to tell the court who the 'winners of the fracas were it was apparent by the presence of the bottles and whiskey in court that the police hadn't come off second best. Amos Scott was charged with ob- structing police officers and with having liquor illegally. His home, 169 Gibb Street, had previously been declared a public place as a result of a conviction against him Oct. 9, 1845, thus making it against the law to have liquor there, Represented by R. D. Humphreys, K.C,, he pleaded guilty to the charge of having liquor. He was fined $100 and costs or one month in the coun= ty jail. The charge of obstructing police officers was withdrawn on he plea of Crown Attorney A. C. Hall. Arnold Scott and Mrs. Chenette were both charged with obstructing police officers. Both pleaded guilty. Beth were fined $25 and costs or one month, John McCue was charged with being found-in and with illegal possession of a beer permit. He pleaded guilty to the first charge and was fined $10 and costs or 10 days, Magistrate Advises Accused McCue was apparently all set to plead guilty to the second charge also when His Worship stopped him. "You haven't got counsel," His Worship pointed out, "and there- * fore I think it is only fair to tell yeu the minimum fine is $107." "I had the permit when the polee Srenal me," McCue offered timid "You must know whether you are guilty or not," His Worship replied, "How do you plead?" McCue swallcwed nervously, "Not guilty," he 'finally managed. Det. Sgt. Alexander told the court: "After we searched him at the station and took the permit |, from him, it was made out to a John Schell, Prince Albert. He told us he found the permit, "That is right," McCue told the court, "I found it and was going to give it back but never ran into the owner." ' Crown Attorney Hall wasn't sat- isfied. Bxamining the permit he WITH THE TIRES ON YOUR TRUCK IF YOU DRIVE ON GOODJ*YEAR TRUCK TIRES mooofitee DEALER DAVIS' TIRE SERVICE - Oshawa : LC] -- st. Ee 3939 . CHARLES C. MARTIN whose appointment as Superintend- ent of Eastern Agencies, with head- quarters in Toronto, was recently announced by H. W. Manning, Vice- President and Director of The Great-West Life Assurance Company, asked McCue, "How long have you had this?" "One week." "How is it that it is used right up to date?" "By God, I don't know, sir. 1 never opened the book myself., I just picked it off the street and shoved it into my pocket. I never bought any beer on it." "Sounds fishy to me, Your Wor- ship," Crown Attorney Hall told the court. His Worship wasn't sure. "I think we better not act two hastily," he said, "I think we should remand MoCue for a week and give him a chance to bring the owner of the permit into court. Perhaps he is telling the truth." McCue, who was dressed in work ing clothes and looked as though a $100 fine might be quite a hard- | ship to him, nodded in appreciation. ¢I know the owner," he said, "and I'll ask him to come to court for me." "The case 'was remanded for one week.

' FULL ENPLOYNENT (Continued from Page 3) not require full physical ability, In the Ford Motor Co. some 11,000 dis- abled persons worked and proved efficient, No Occupational Handicap Mr. Purchase said that physical disability need not be an occupa- tional handicap as all jobs demand different qualifications and the dis- ability from which a man suffers applies only to certain jobs and while he may be disabled in one sense, he will have developed other abilities which compensate. There- fore as different jobs demand cer- tain abilities, disabilities can be overcome in other jobs. It was the opinion of the speaker that disabil- ity rather than ability should be the deciding factor. It was stressed also that each ap- plicanf must be considered as an indivjdual in the light of the job he is to do. As it is relatively easy to determine demands of each job; the matching of physical demands of the job and the man can be de- termined without difficulty.

ATTEMPTS T0 FOOL GOD ARE FUTILE President of Oshawa Mis- sionary College Delivers "i houghtful Address That man may sucoeed in decelv- ing his fellowmen, but that any at- tempts to fool God are futile, was | the truth emphasized by Professor | C. W. Shankel, President of the | Oshawa Missionary College, in a thought-provoking address deliver= led at the Seventh-day Adventist | campground, last Saturday evening, The educator brought out many pointed lessons on attitudes and va- ried states of minds. Referring to the text "The fool hath said in his own heart There is no God," Pro« fessor Shankel said: "How many fools are there in this audience today? 'Well,' you say, 'I am a member of the church, I believe in God and sing about His power in His sanctuary, Consequent. ly, I won't fall into that class. Very well, But how are you conducting yourself from day to day? Are you demonstrating before the world that you Dbélleve in God's existence? One can easily profess the existe ence of God with the mouth, bus ones works and actions may present a complete denial. The fool is the person who does not live out his beliefs, regardless of how lofty his professions may be." Speaking particularly on the sub- ject of Christian education, Mr. Shankel continued. "We often find parents who give their children a faulty training for sixteen years, and then consider our school a faile ure because it does not succeed in transforming them into saints in a year, If a graduate from a Christ- ian school develops into a repro- bate, many point to that individual as the ultimate product of such an institution, forgetting that the vast majority who developed into credi- table citizens: Generally, these lndi« viduals point to the failures in an attempt to soothe their conscience, which condemns them for not being willing to make the sacrifice requir. ed to give their children a Chris- tian education. "The name on the church-book is not worth the paper it is written on nor the ink required to write it, un- less it 1s backed up with a consist- ent Christian life." : Adding further emphasis .to the value of a Christian education, the President concluded: "In the final analysis, it is a qucstion of Chris- tianity and heaven or worldly phil- osophies and hell."
