Mr. Hart, who has been a Rotarian for 23 years and is a past president of the Oshawa club, was 'the. guest speak er at the meeting and was describ- ing the Rotary convention which was held at Atlantic City in May, "The condition of the world td- day is critical," he sald, "There are social and economic problems pres. ent now which will affect our lives perhaps tragically if we don't take action," He believed that a small club could do considerable to help by being articulate about these prob- lems and countering the words spoken by advocates of other forms of government, "We can make sure our own opinions are sound" he added, "ahd then we can preach them and discuss them."

JOHN R. FROST, Clerk, Town of Whitby. George Hart of Oshawa | WORE STOLEN SUIT IN POLICE GOURT, TOLD TO RETURN IT Owner Testifies Suit Worn By Accused Ag His Own Dressing with his usual care 8 short time ago, Henry BSonley of Whitby Township, reached into his clothes closet for his new blue grey suit and was very much disturbed to find that the sult was missing. A further search revealed that the hired man was also missing and a "hue and cry" was ra which in the arrest of one Mondell, In Tuesday's court Mondell ap- peared, nattily dressed, before Mag~ trate A, E. Lightbourn, re was charged with the eft of clothing and a sum of money, He rie gullty to the theft of cloth ingg but claimed that he was guilt~ less as far as the money was con- ce rned, Crown Attorrfey Alex Hall called Mr, Boney to the witness stand where he said that Mondell had been hired to work on his afther's farm. The young man had worked for three days before he disappear- ed coincidently with the disappear- ance of the sult, a shirt and some SOX, Suit and Shirt, Too Crown Attorney Hall asked the witness if he would recognize his sult, The witness assured him that ha would, Orown Attorney Hall asked the witness If he saw hig sult in court, The witness said that he did, and to no one's surprise he in- dicated the sult which draped the form of the accused, "That's my shirt, too," he sald, and Mondell, apparently enjoying himself, smiled broadly and nodded his head in agreement, Crown Attorney Hall told the magistrate that the accused had no record in Oanada, but that a re- ugest had been received asking that Mondell be held for the U.S, immi- gration authorities. Mondell was then sent, still smiling cheerfully, to serve thirty days in the county jail, When last scen, Mr. Sonley was leaving the jail with his suit, his shirt and his sox firmly tucked underneath his arm, program in government, Mr, Stassen said that it was the business of the administration to prevent crises rather than settle them when they occurred, referring particularly to strikes and labor problems. Mr, Hart concluded his talk by saying that the efforts of Rotary could be of help to the world in its present critical condition, He was thanked for his words by 8B, W, Keown, who reiterated some of the ideas expressed, What Time' WasIt? The confusion of times in the Post Office clock is now a thing of the past, almost, The strokes of the bell are now the same as the time registered by the hour hand in the newly repainted and Suing tower, but the minute hands on the various faces of the clock show vari- ous times, None of them differ by more than four minutes, however. Local citizens, struggling with in. somnia, found during the past few days that hearing the clock strike midnight with only one "bong" was a little unnerving, but now, thanks to this alteration, they will be able to try to ge to sleep in peace. CHARGED WITH ASSAULT The case of Joseph Laroche of Ajax, charged with indecent assault against an eight year old girl was put forward until August 27. Ball was set by Magistrate A. E, Light- bourn at $1,000, J. R., Dunn of Toronto pleaded guilty to a charge of careless drive ing in Pickering and was {fined $10.00 and costs.
