bj NEWS OF WHITBY & DISTRICT Minister of Highways Meets Road Committee 3 Hon. George Doucett Visits Whitby To Confer With County Roads and Osh- awa Suburban Roads Committees -- Shortages Delay Program The Hon. George Doucett, Minis- ter of Highways in the provincial government, met with the County Road Commiittee, the Oshawa Sub- urban Road Commission, and the County Engineer, D, Whitby on Wednesday, to discuss any problems which presented themselves to the various commit- tees. At the meeting which took place in the County Buildings, Mr, Doucett was accompanied by P. M. Higgins, District Municipal En- 'gineer, and E, F. Marston, District Municipal Engineer from Port Ho # Te Highways minister asked. the committee and the Engineer for any problems that they wished to diseuss with him; several of which were presented by those in attend- ance, Chief among those were (1) widening of the Oshawa Suburban Road approaching the city; (2) spraying of weeds; (3) snow re- moval re winter road maintenance, and the building of Snow Hedges; (4) shortage of materials, Suggest -Highway Bylaw Various opinions were put for- ward from the different members, and the popular idea accepted for item No. 1 was to have a bylaw passed by the municipality in which the roads were to be widened limit- ing the distance from the right of * way on which buildings might be erected, similar to the limitations adjacent to the Queen Elizabeth Highway. In discussing the spraying of weeds it was the general "opinion that more effort must be exercised by the municipality to beat the weed nuisance, To do this more efficiently it was generally con- ceded that if less mileage was sprayed with a stronger solution the centage of kill of weeds would greater. Impressed by Snow Hedges Mr. Doucett was highly in favor of the erection of snow hedges ad- jacent to the roads, which in a few years would decrease snow plowing costs, Several counties have taken on a similar program of this nature especially in Western On- tario with very satisfactory results. A shortage of materials such as steel, tar, asphalt, nails etc, will govern the municipality and also the Department of Highways abil- ity to carry on with their intended programme, Mr, Doucett stated that Legal Notices SALE of LAND FOR TAXES the De, ent work would neces- sarily have to be curtailed in this respect, on this account, and 'no doubt the municipality would also find themselves in the same pre- dicament, Educational Meeting This was a very educational meet- and the thanks of the members present were suitably expressed by a vote of thanks tendered by H. Newman, Reeve of Mara, and Rus- sel Hood, Reeve of Scugog, and Chairman of the County Road Committee, They expressed their appreciation to the Minister for time off from his strenuous duties to visit each particular County 'and discuss with them their blems which are very important all interested in Road Construc- tion and Maintenance business. The Hon, Mr, Doucett accompan- ied by Mr, Higgins and Mr, Marston left for a similar meeting in the County Buildings at Barrie. War Not All Over Till Year End For Salvation Army Not until the end of this year will the war be over for The Sal- vation Army, according to Come missioner Benjamin Orames, Terri- torial Commander for Canada, While the work for the armed services ended in Canada on June 80, some Salvation Army supervis- ors will remain in the field overseas at least until September 30. Com- pletion of administrative work in connection with the operation of The Salvation Army Red Shield War Services is expected to take until December 31, The Salvation Army became the only Canadian Auxiliary Service carrying on Field operations on July 31 when the other organiza- tions turned over their activities, Since hostilities ended, Salvation Army members serving either in the armed forces or as supervisors have been trickling back to Canada and The Salvation Army has been steadily increasing home front op- erations that were diminished be- cause of loss of personnel to war 'activities. The Salvation Army vol- unteered its services before the war started. A major outcome of wartime ac- tivities has been that large nume bers of ex-servicemen who encoun- tered Salvationists at training cen- tres here and on active service abroad have turned to Salvation Army representatives for help and guidance, sald Commissioner Or- ames. To restore The Army to full-time home front operations and carry out long-deferred expansions of facilities and services, the Home Front Appeal for $2,000,000 opens across Canada Monday, Sept, 16, JUNIORS LOSE (Continued from Page 4) the ville's first run looked to be out when he stole second and again on of | Yulll's try for a double play, but 0:30 o'clock a of November, 1946, un- NOTICE TO CREDITORS JOSEPH A Agr Eg , 1a e Vil- lage of Brooklin, in the County of On- NOTI a atvos yo en, il . the Trustee Ret, RS.O, 19317, ter 165, that all creditors and others vi claims or demands against the ate of the sald JOSEPH ND, who died on or about the ninth (9th) day April, AD. 1946, at the Town of tby, in the County of Ontario, are requ! on or t the 23rd day of A ) pre) al gi 1-3 § E2 both times the umpire ruled him the | safe.
