Macpherson Phone 703, All Departments New Whitby Factories Nearing Completion, One Ready An announcement in tod In 2 Weeks ay's paper indicates that one | of Whitby's new industries is almost ready to start pro- { duction, the first of the industries, brought into the town ' by the efforts of the Chamb er of Commerce, to actually & get under way. i The announcement asks that girls | ! who registered with the Chamber of ! Commerce some weeks ago as either * experienced in or interested in be=y , ing sewing machine operators re- part for an interview at the Brock : Street North plant of the Empire | Pant and Boys' Wear Compaly | during the next three days of this : week. Operating In Two -Weeks With this announcement comes ' the news that the plant is expected to be in operation within two weeks. Other firms are not far behind in their building plans and hope to start producing soon. The Natalie Knitting Company, at the corner of John and As! Streets, is expected to be ready for occupation by the middle of Decem- ber at the latest, although Public Utility Commission workmen - have been having trouble with quick- sand where they #re trying to lay the sewers, Other troubles have had to be surmounted by the builder of these two plants, as he has run in- to shortages in almost every sec- tion of the work. So far these dif- ficulties have been met and the owners hope to be ready to go well before the end of the year. Another plant which is going up with great speed and despatch in Whitby is that of Woodland Pro- ducts on Euclid Street below the railway. Started only a few weeks ago by three Whitby veterans work has progressed to the point that the walls are almost completed. The partners' main ambition is to get the roof on the building before the snow comes, and at the speed with which they are building they will probably do it. ' Activity At Port The area around the harbor is another hive of activity, with the dump recently filled in, and con- struction work going on at Argo Fetroleum and at Brunton Lumber + At Argo a new million gallon . storage tank has been completed "already and work is going forward on an annex to the offices, to.pro- svide living quarters for employees.

Soon, the taggers will be on the street again selling pop- h | pies. Here's what is done with the money they collect: "Poppy Fund has for many years assisted 'a great number of our ex- servicemen over the tough spots. It does what it can to make the needy one and his family comfortable in his' home, providing clothes and shoes, re furniture and stoves, getting things going until they can carry on unaided." This is the welfare division of the fund, Last year $34,191.90 was spent in this way. Besides, "for over 15 years the Industrial Division of Poppy Fund has acted on the prin- ciple of helping others to help themselves. Many scores of exe servicemen have been engaged in collecting, sorting, baling and sell- ing what would ordinarily be called waste materials, but which has produced enough money to pay out in the year 1945, to those employed, the sum of $56,172.06 in wages." In addition, the organization helps over-age men get jobs. Receipts from all sources for the year were $157,842.08.

According to the replies, some towns had contracted for.a number of Wartimé Housing homes, others had contracts with Housing Enterprises and still others had de- cided to build under the Inte- grated Housing scheme. It was this last program that seemed most attractive to the Coun- cil and at their meeting tonight. will hear Ralph L. Schofield, of Oshawa, who is an official loan agent for the National Housing Act and who has been connected with ternoon. Mrs. Maud Patterson was appointed delegate to the conven- tion to be held in the Royal York Hotel, on November 11th, 12th and 13th. A very interesting letter re- ceived by Mrs, Agg, Sr., from Mrs. Helen Cosens, of Albury, Australia, was read. Mrs. Cozens, who is pres- ident of the Albury Country Wom- en's Association, outlined the work they are doing which is much the same as the work of our Women's Institute. She also made reference to meeting Mrs. Agg's daughter, Mrs. Fry (Dorothy) who is residing there and said how glad they were to welcome her to their branch. Mrs, Howard, convener, then called on Mrs. Patterson who spoke on Citizenship, taking for her subject, "Good Citizens Make Good States- men", Light refreshments were served by the convener. ' the Integrated Housing enterprises in Oshawa. Made On Saturday in Oshawa aiternoon, Reeve to inspect the houses being built under the above plan there, They had been appointed as a committee to make the inspection at a Council meeting. 'The houses built under this pros gram are of various designs, and veterans have first choice in buye ing them. They sell at prices from approximately $4,500 to $5,500, and are four, five and six roomed houses, One of the features of this plan is the small down payment required, and the long term amorti. zation, At the meeting tonight the Council and the town planners will 'go into the question of whether a housing program is needed here, about which, according to recent utterances, there acn be little doubt, and where the houses should be lo- cated if they are to be built. 730 High Score' For Local Bowlers A sparkling 730 by R.

Kinsmen Playing Host To Local Youngsters At Hallowe'en Shindig Continuing a practice started during the war years, Whitby Kinsmen will play host to the hobgoblins, witches and other fearsome creatures who roam the streets on All Hallows' Eve. Good things to eat, prizes for the in- dustrious and a motion picture Pe assure all of a good night's fun.

Persons interested in assisting in the fun will have no trouble in ob- taining their supply to be handed to the small marauders in lieu of the hard-to-obtain candies and fruit. . Entails: Work In many towns Kinsmen decided to drop the "Shell-Out" party be- cause of the work entailed, but Whitby is one of the fortunate com- munities where the Hallowe'en party will be held, In many cases where the clubs had decided not to have a party, they were obliged to change their plans, by the weight of public opinion. Chief J, W. Elliott gives his whole-hearted approval to the pro- gram, He feels that the children are assured of a good time, and that this assurance reduces the chance of vindictive damage In the town. Prizes on Display On display in Kinsman Oke"s window on Brock Street South are the fine prizes purchased for the occasion. These will be given to the children who turn up at the party with the most shell-out tick- ets collected during the early part of the evening. The Kinsmen are anxious that you may have a part in providing the fun for the evening and would like to be sure that you have a sup- ply of the necessary tickets on hand. If you have any difficulty in obtaining them a call to any mems- ber of the club will provide you with direction for the spending of your money.
