E, Phillips, owner of the Wynyates Ayrshire herd, derives from an illustrious family of pedigreed Ayrshires in the County of Ayr, Scotland, where : this great dairy breed originated many generations ago, On October 5, 1946, during the® Show at Markham where judged and declared Junior Cham- pion and Reserve Grand Champion of the Show. A week later he was entered in the Championship Ayre shire Show at Rockton where only the first and second prize winners at the various shows through the country are eligible and where he was aagin winner of these same awards. The New Canadian On July 12, 1944, a calf was born in Scotland. This blessed event occurred some thousands of miles from the home of the Wynyates herd, Oshawa. Had this been an ordinary calf and had there not been a concentration of extraordi- nary features attached to this indi- vidual nothing would have been heard of this local Scottish occur- rence in far away Canada. This was no ordinary calf. He was first of all an Ayrshire calf. He was further a pure bred Ayr- shire calf with a' long and impres- sive pedigree extending over many . generations and gmbracing a care- fully blended ccembination of blood lines and families noted for their great qualities throughout the world and nurtured in the cradle of the home of the Ayrshire breed, The selection of the ancestors ot this calf was carried out by mem- bers of those great Scottish fam- ilies who have been breeders of the Ayrshire for centuries and who have contributed, down through the gen- erations, to the development and field--the dairy field--which has contributed so much toward the improvement of health and the general welfare of all peoples 'throughout the world. This was a bull calf, born a mem- JUNIOR SIRE ; (Continued on Page 8) Request Care Prevent Fires | Because someone was careless th fire, many Hallowe'en celebra- tions in the past had been trans- formed into tragedies, Chief W. R. Elliott said today. He urged all Oshawa residents to watch for fire hazards when they usher in the traditional annual . festivity next Thursday evening. A special plea to pranksters not io bum iB Jai alates as pars of their merrymaking, was made by Chief Elliott, There would be en- ough trouble without the unneces- sary nuisances, The best way to have a safe and merry time on Hallowe'en, Chief Elliott said, was to plan a school or community celebration where the fun could be properly supervised. Unauthorized and isolated bonfires were a serious threat to the whole community, When small fires had flashed across halls and other places of festivity, with combustible hangings or when flimsy Hallowe'en costumes had been ignited, he warned, ter- rible fire tragedies had occurred. Among the most dangerous items * of decoration, he mentioned candle- lit paper Jack-o'-lanterns, This decoration would be safer and would afford more fun if electrified. They -could be flashed on and off ond would add to the weird effect, the chief added. Carelessness in the use of matches and a smoking was noted by Chief Elliott as being another serious fire cause. The chief admonished those in charge of restaurants, private clubs and other places of public assembly who had scheduled special celebra- tions, not to use flammable decora- tions. They were asked to be sure . that all decorations were flame- proof. Exits were to be clearly marked and to be unobstructedal Sprinklers, hand hose and fire ex- tinguishers were to be kept ready for operation, And remember--no false alarms! Forces of the Law Wink For Veteran' Montreal, Oct. 26--(CP)--The law has turned a blind eye to the case of Willlam Wickett and the war veteran, who faced eviction sol his apartment because it for- merly was a "blind pig," is being -allowed to keep his home.

The General, who at one time commanded approximately 500,000 men, was renowned for his submis- sions to headquarters, which were always models of neatness and con- densation; on which to base future Army campaigns and policy. The lessons learned at Dieppe were marshalled by Gen. Crerar in- to what later became the master plan for successful fed landings in the Mediterranean and Norman- dy beaches. SEEK FAMILY PET Somewhere in the Oshawa district it is believed there is a pure white female Bull Terrier who will answer to the name of Ruby. Ruby has been a pet of the Von Pilis family for a good many years and her loss is felt very keenly, Mr. F, V. Von Pilis, the owner of the dog, has of- fered a reward of $25.00 for any in- formation that will lead to the re- covery of this dog. Anyone knowing anything of this lost family pet is asked to notify Mr. Von Pilis, tele- A Royal Entry for the Royal Winter Fair The young Ayrshir. pall, "Tradition" pictured above, junior herd sire of the Wynyates herd owned by Col- onel W, E. Phillips of Oshawa, will be one of the 25 selected individuals from this herd to be exhibited at this year's Royal Winter Fair, which opens November 13. The "Royal", the first in six years, is being looked forward to with considerable interest by thousands of regular attenders of the pre-war years. "Tradition" won the Junior Champion and Reserve Grand Champion awards at Markham and Rockton Championship Ayrshire Shows. The interest shown by the Ayrshire breeders of Canada from coast to coast whose num- bers have greatly multiplied in the past ten years, indicates beyond doubt that the Ayrshire exhibits at the Royal Winter Fair will be more extensive and that competition will be keener thun ever before. Ayrshires will arrive by the carload from as far west as British Columbia and as far east as the Maritimes. Kiwanis Club Stages Party, Father-Child Members of the Oshawa Kiwanis Club played hosts to their children last night at the Hotel Genosha, on the ogcasion of the club's annual "Father and Child Night." The "Boys and Girls Committee" headed by Chairman Bill Gibbie, was in charge of all arrangements and Kiwanian Bill acted as chair- man for the evening's entertain- ment, after Vice-President Dave Jamieson had turned over the gavel, at the conclusion of the usual busi- ness agenda, In Form of Party . Cleverly arranged with the aim of making it a big night for the children of the Kiwanians, the event was staged in the form. of a huge party, with Hallowe'en dec- orations for the tables and dining room, paper hats for everyone, pumpkin "jack-o-lanterns," etc. The menu was in keeping with the occasion, sandwiches, ice cream and colored cake to catch the eyes of the young guests. Two attenaance prizes, won by Kiwanians Evan Reynolds and Al Simester proved the only honors won by the adult Kiwanians in the entire evening's program and this was merely chance. In all other contests and games of skill, the young guests dominated the eve- ning. Following a sing-song session in which the K children joined lustily under the leadership of Kiwanians Harry Johnson, Al. Simester and Geo, Campbell, with Kelvin James at the piano, the young guests were put in thé proper mood for the program of entertainment by the staging of an "apple dunking con- test." Kiwanian Dave Jamieson emerged as champion in the final round, "nosing out" Kiwanian "Shorty" Reynolds in the tooth- some grab act. Kiwanian Keith Gahan staged a spelling bee, with Kiwanian "Nick" Nichols supplying the words for the contest. Kiwanians Bill Brownlee, Bill Blair, Dave Jamieson, Bill Dun- can, Bill McClennen, Fred Moss and Al, Parkhill were opposed by their own children. The difficult words phone Whitby 950 and reverse the charges. floored the adults but the young- Paris Traffic Congestion Said Worst In All Europe Paris, Oct. 26. -- (CP) -- Paris, among other things, is on a giddy traffic jag this fall, In no other big city in Europe is there such vehicular congestion, such fantastically wild driving, or 50 many speed demons demonstrat ing their skill, or lack of it. For a long time after the libera- tion, practically all Paris rode bicy- cles. But cars have gradually come back and now with increased gaso- line supplies and the return' of peo- ple from summer holidays, Paris- fans are driving more cars than anw time since 1940, and they drive them with unprecedented abandon. There are sleek new American and Canadian models, new front- wheel French jobs with cannon- ball pickup and thousands of old jalopies which give traific streams an unnerving and unpredictable change of pace, Pity the poor pedestrian--the hunted man of Paris. Canadian Army men here who drove the Canadian Peace Confer- ence delegation in August," when Paris was comparatively quiet, sald they had never seen anything like the current congestion and lack of adherence to the ordinary rules of the road. Pte. Ernie Trepanier of Ottawa, who drove Prime Minister Mac- Kenzie King when he was here and has returned to London to drive for Norman Robertson, the new Cana- dian High Commissioner there, said: "Driving in Canada, in London or in Canadian Army convoys during the war, did't have a patch on what you have to look out for here this fall. No car driver seemed to pay any attention to anybody else and ~~ing up places like the Champs Elysees it was everyone for himself, with no holds barred." For a pedestrian in downtown Paris the worst times are at noon, and from four to seven p.m. when the streets are jammed with traffic. The Aendarmes, waving their white batons and blasting on their shrill whistles, only complicate things. The avenues are so broad you have to be practically a 10-second 'man to make a safe crossing. sters reeled off the correct spelling in amazing fashion but "the cat was out of the bag" when Kiwanian Keith got mixed up and Brownlee Jr. protested -- "That wasn't the word I had to learn." 'Magic and Motion Pictures Kiwanian Ben Morwood created a lot of entertaining fun with a series of games in which all could join and later in the program another session of in door games was held. "Professor Ross Bertram, M.D." (Doctor of Magic) was of course the most popular entertainer of the evening. His feats of the magiclan's art had the young guests gasping in awe and of course, the employment of several as young assistants serv- ed to further increase the interest and pleasure of this portion of the program, in addition to talented performance. There were apples and candies to be distributed of course and sou- venirs of the evening and the eve- ning's fun was topped style with a motion picture show included "Thrills & Spills," an in- Survey Reveals Two Main Systems Favored To Cure Parking Tangles How to regulate automobile park- ing without shooing would-be cus- tomers from downtown shopping sections or adding to congestion of streets already thronged with more trafic than their designers ever en- visioned has high priority on" the problem lists of municipal councils across Canada. Every city dweller has his own pet theory of the way to end the tangle but a Canadian Press sur- vey shows two main methods fav- ored by Canadian communities: un- derground parking (still in the blue- print stage) for the big cities and parking meters for the smaller ones. As post-war cars roll from the assembly lines, the parking puzzle takes on fresh complications but the basic difficulty stems from the nature of the streets of most of Canada's cities, especially the older ones, Lusty youngsters like Winnipeg and Edmonton pride themselves on their wide thoroughfares and their worries are lighter than those of sister cities in the east. Downtown streets in Ottawa, Toronto, Mon- treal and Halifax date from anoth- er era which never dreamed of to- day's delemma. The 'Nineties were never this. like On the narrow streets of the older cities there simply isn't room these days for parked cars, moving cars, trucks, streetcars, bicycles and buses but they all insist on their right to be there. Merchants, es- pecially, protest any suggestion of banning downtown parking, claim- ing that customers will not come to their stores unless they can park the family automobile within a stone's throw of the store entrance. Parking lots are fine, but most of them have long ago been crowd- ed far from shopping districts. Many are taken up by all-day park- ers and the ariver who wants to leave his car there for a few minu- tes or an hour 1s out of luck. Toronto is contemplating a de luxe underground parking garage on a new civic square west of the present city hall. The plan is mod- elled after San Francisco, a city of similar size, where Union Square's underground parking facilities will accommodate as many as 1,700 cars at a time, but the best guess is that Toronto's subterranean parking is still several years away and mean- time the city has banned parking, except for commercial vehicles, in the downtown business section for a tirvesmonth trial period starting an. 1. Regina forbids parking on its main street, 11th Avenue, but makes extra parking space available on side streets and near parks. In Montreal, the Royal Automo- bile Club of Canada has suggested an under-the-surface parking space on Dominion Square, a large pub- lic park located near. Main Rall- way Stations, hotels and large office Juildings. Supporters of the plan say it could be used in other parks in the downtown area. Vancouver and Hamilton are among Canada's few big cities which use parking meters, These devices enable a motorist to park 12 minutes for one cent and an hour for five cents--with a park- ing ticket if he exceeds the limit, Parking meters also are operat- ing, or about to operate in the On- tario cities of Peterborough, Brant- ford, North Bay, Sudbury, Sault Ste Marie, Guelph, Woodstock, Kingston, Owen Sound, Cornwall, 8t. Thomas, Welland, London, Chatham, Oshawa and Kitchen®r, Proposals to instal meters were turtia down by Niagara Falls and Stratford while Timmins and Galt say they can cope with traffic problems without them for the pre- sent. his very | off in grand | 25 Exemptions In First Month During the opening month of school 50 cases of irregular atten- dance and illegal absence were re- ported and 25 exemptions from school were issued, School Atten- dance Officer A. L. W. Smith states in his monthly report. Of the 25 who obtained exemp- tions, all were to persons of 13 years of age and over and 20 were 15 years or over. Two had Grade 10 standing, six Grade 9, one en- trance, seven Grade 8, five Grads 7 and four Grade 6. Husband is Freed On Support Charge Charged with disobeying an or- der to keep up payments to his wife, Fabian Fleury, 77 Gibbs Street, had the charge dismissed by Magistrate F. 8. Ebbs after it was stated by the wife, Jean, that the ldbest pay- ments had been made up to date. In asking for the dismissal Crown Attorney A. C. Hall said that he would ask for a committal the next time the man fell behind in his payments, because it had happened before, teresting sports picture; "On the Scent," the story of a wild elephant hunt filmed in thrilling reality and some comedy cartoon pictures. There was some doubt as to whether the young guests or the Kiwanian hosts enjoyed themselves the more but one thing was unan- imously agreed, the evening was a very pleasant success. Need Helpers For Success T.B. Survey A drive to stamp out tuberculosis in the Ontario County district will soon be underway. It is being con- ducted ty the Oshawa Kiwanis Club in co-operation with the Ontario Tuberculosis Association and "the Ontario Department of Health, If the campaign is to succeed as it most certainly should, help is needed from many volunteers and every citizen must be aware of it. Arrangements are being made to have the school children x-rayed all at one time, providing of course that the necessary permission has been first granted by their parents. Ia We case of citizens, however, x-ray intments will be arranged by vol steer workers calling at their homes. volunteer canvasser will be given a.small district and asked to call on every family in that district in the hope of making an x-ray appointment for each family mem- ber. Canvassers will be provided with appointment cards as well as instruction sheets setting out all the desired information. In centres where similar surveys have already been completed householders were found to be most co-operative. The facts concerning tuberculosis do not permit complacency. During the war almost as many Canadians were killed by this disease as were killed by enemy action. It kills more people between 18 and 45 than all other infectious diseases com- bined. At this moment about 50,000 Canadians are actively ill with tub- erculosis, It is most urgent that this im- portant project should receive the co-operation of all. No one in this community should be missed by the chest x-ray survey.

R. McEwen's monthly report. At four schools, King Street, Mary Street, Ritson and South Simcoe, 95 per cent attendance was reported, while 94 per cent was re- ported for Albert Street and Cedar- dale and 93 per cent for Centre Street and North Simcoe. Of the total enrolment for the month, 1,582 of the pupils were girls and 1,652 boys. Enrolment at Centre Street was 752, with 521 at Ritson, 391 at North Simcoe, 363 at South Simcoe, 321 at King Street, 302 at Mary Street, 274 at Cedardale and 260 at Albert Street. Bobby-Sox Slouch From School Books Baltimore, Oct. 26. --(AP)--Books were blamed today by a children's hospital school worker for what she called that "Bobby-Sox Slouch" -- an it had nothing to do with read- g. Mrs. Florence P. Kendal, wife and || associate of the director of physical therapy at the hospital school, said carrying stacks of heavy books be- tween home and school and from class to class, contributed to preval- ent faulty posture discovered in the examination of school students, Her solution: "Let them print the books in pamphlet form and let the children carry only the part immediately re- quired. That would reduce the huge pile of books to a small, eas- ily-carried package and prevent a lot of maladjusted hips." Ask Sever Ties With Spaniards Brighton, Sussex, Eng., Oct, 26-- (CP)--The British Trades Union Congress yesterday defeated a reso- lution rapping British foreign policy.

The chain of events which followed a short circuit inan underwater cable pleased no one but® the children whose schools, depend- ing on electricarly-operated fura- aces, had to close, Separated from the mainland by Barrington Passage's half-mile stretch, the 3,500 people of the Is- land off Nova Scotia's southernmost tip felt even more isolated when the government ferry was damaged as a result of the power failure. The trouble began last Sunday when the power cable under the passage short-circuited. Linemen went out next day to make repairs but the cable broke. One end of it was lost then swift- running tides carried it away. Power company officials who sur- veyed the damage said it would take eight months to lay a new cable, and the installation of an emergency generating station on the Island was started. But the elec- triclans declined to say when the lights would be turned on again. Meanwhile, homes of the 2,000 people in and around Clarke's Har- bor, the 1Island's principal town, were without power even for their radios. Water had to be drawn from wells because the town's water sup- ply was pumped electrically. Workmen going to their jobs Monday in the half-dozen indus- trial plants found their firms chiefly fish-processing .and allied industries--had shut down. Then in the darkness of Wednes- day night the ferry Joseph Howe rammed a pier and was so seriously damaged she had to be replaced by the emergency ferry Edgar Rhodes with about half the Howe's capacity. Even the movies were out for is- landers who wanted to forget their troubles, There was no power for the projection machines. At Cross Purposes In Swamp Drainage London, Ont., Oct. .26.--(CP) A provincial government display at the International Match at Port Albert last week urging the drain- age of sloughs came in for criticism from Middlesex County Engineer, F. R. Smith yesterday. Speaking to a meeting of Zone 1, Ontario Conservation and Refor- estation Association, Mr. Smith said he was "surprised to note the nature of the exhibit, Our govern- ment departments seem to be work- ing at cross purposes somewhat. Here we have the Department of Agriculture urging that these swamps be drained, while all the while the Department of Lands and Forest and the O.CR.A. urge that they be retained."

Magistrate Ebbs ordered the boys to report at.least once a month the probation officer, A. L. 'W. Smith; to stay away from the pre- mises of the railway, especially the sidings and to be off the streets by 9.30 at night unless accompanied by their parents. "There must be something radice ally wrong in the home," sald the magistrate in referring to one: of the lads. He said he. had other members of the family up before him lately. In 'defense of the lad; AF AB- nis told the court that the boy's father had been killed early this year in a motor accident, that there was now only one person in the family earning a steady income, and that this had undoubtedly con tributed to the delinquency. Both Mr. Annis and Louis Hyman for the defense said that the par- ents had made a large financial Je stitution, that the boys had & good X sehool record having never been' th trouble before, and: that~the proba- tion officer had given them a good detention report. In concluding, Magistrate Ebbs warned the boys that another of- fense would mean sending them to the Industrial School.
