PAGE FOUR THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 17, 1948 LATEST NEWS OF THE COUNTY TOWN OF WHITBY. Business Office, Miss G. Macpherson, Phone 703, All Departments Two Restaurants Comply With New Provincial Rules Dr. F. A. Cuddy, medical officer of health, said today that only two of Whitby's seven restaurants had complied with the new Public Health, Act regulations by the March 15 deadline. While no drastic action was con. templated immediately, Dr, Cuddy said he would make another check in the near future to see that im. provements were made. He indi. cated that all the eating places were working towards compliance with the new regulations but so far only two had fulfilled all the necessary obligations. The province-wide regulations went into effect January 1, but as leniancy had been March 15 was set in Whitby as a date by which operators strive to comply. Three Classifications - The regulations divide "eating establishments" into three classifi- cations: These are -- 1. Lunch which has a public seating accom. modation for not more than 15 per. | sons; 2. Refreshment stand -- an establishment where food, prepared | for immediate consumption by the public without cooking is sold or | offered for sale; 3. Restaurant-- which has a public eating accommo. dation for more than 15 persons and is exclusively engaged in the offering for sale of food to the pub- lie. sanitary construction and equip- recommended | in their enforcement at the start, | should counter | Under the sections providing for | Milk Producers Honor President For Long Service Lorne Kemp, retiring after 10 years as president of the Milk Pro. ducers of the Whitby market, was presented with a pen and pencil LORNE KEMP ment of eating places and prepara. | tion and serving of food, it is re. quired that all must be provided with a supply of water adequate for efficient operation.

Within 24 hours after such an order has been issued, the operator must be notified, together with reasons for the clasing.

BRODIE - AUDREY LONG WILLIAM CHALLEE - JASON ROBARDS Half-Load Order Comes With Thaw While all county and suburban roads have been restricted to half. loads this week, County Engineer D. J. Kean said today that no ser. fous difficulties have been en. countered yet in the thaw of the past few days. Mr, Kean said that some 40,000 yards of gravel had been applied to county roads last year and as a re. sult they were in a better position to stand up under the spring break-up. Farther north in the county, however, high snow banks flank many of the roads and crews of workmen 'are engaged in pushing back the snow in order that the ditches will not be obstructed. In some cases this work is done by hand and in others the wing of the snow plow is used. The volume of snow remaining at the present time is a mere frac. tion of that a year ago, however. It was in the first week of March last year that motorists were marooned in the Myrtle area for nearly four days and it was not until March 8 that bus service res- umed between Oshawa and Port Perry. By the following week, the the ice.choked Duffin's Creek at Pickering was threatening destruc. tion to adjacent properties.

Big City Doesn't Impress Farm Boy Regina -- (CP) -- A 16-year-old farm boy who had never ridden an elevator, street car or train until he came to Regina to participate in la high . school drama festival, (wasn't very impressed by it all | when he got the chance. Bill Forrest had never been more than 30 miles from his farm home near Carnduff in the south- east tip of Saskatchewan until a high school drama group brought him here for the festival. , His reactions: rains--"Too doggone rough." Street cars--"They look like trains." Elevators--"I than walking." Regina--"I was disappointed. People said it was a town, I ex- { pected more than it is." He sald he expected taller build- ings and more traffic. | Aside from a senior hockey | game scheduled forgthe day .of his | visit, Saskatchewan's capital had few charms for Bill. He saw the game but he hadn't gone shopping and didn't especially plan-on vis- iting any stores. But he might "pick up something" for his broth- ers and sisters back on the farm. As far as cities are concerned, there's only one that interested him --he wanted to visit Vancouver. He had an important role in his school play, but Bill wasn't too en- thusiastic about drama. He studi- ed Shakespeare, but "only because I have to in school. There's a lot of silly things in Shakespeare." | Although Bill isn't too keen on guess it's 'better the farm, He said he 'liked work- j cities, he didn't want to stay on. | Ing with engines and wanted to be | an air force mechanic.

PHONE 2243 a) British Have Punch Back, Work Hard For Country's Recovery, Rotarians Told People of Great Britain have recovered amazingly from the mental depression prevalent in 1945 and are doing the best they can, despite high taxation and stringent rationing, to t the country back on its feet, Rotarian Frank Grindley, of Oshawa, told Whitby Rotarians yesterday. The speaker, who returned re- cently from a business trip to Bri- tain, said the people there realize, as in 1940, that they are in the front line of defence for the demo- cratic countries and that their suc- cess in the - "financial mess" in which they now find themselves is Jegessary for other people's well- eing. Speaking of their reaction to the Czechoslovakian problem, he said it was then brought home to the Britisher that for the first time in his history he had no power and consequently he was "awfully disappointed" that the western hemisphere tries in p i of the necessary strength, only took up the the torch verbally. Have Punch Back Mr, Grindley compared present conditions with those he found on his last trip, in the aprile of 1945, At that time, he said, the people were disheartened and the general impression was that they "had had it." Today, however, he would say definitely that they "have their punch back." "Businessmen are keenly alive to the necessity of getting back their imagination and they are using it," he continued, adding that "the man in the street is also very conscious that his little effort is very important to the survival of Britain." Pointing out that it is bein drilled into the people day py Painful Injury Result of Fall Greenbank, March 15--Mr. and Mrs. Britton Love of Alberta have been visiting Mr. and Mrs. Fleet- wood Beare here.

Mrs. Herbert Hook, who has spent the past two months with relatives in Toronto, came home on Friday last. Sacrament will be administered in Greenbank United Church on April 4, the first Sunday after Easter. Mr. George Till met with a pain- ful accident when he fell from a scaffold at the home of Mr. Theo Stevens in Manchester on Thurs- day morning last. He was uncon- scious for some time and is since then at his home here recovering from head and body injuries. About seventy people of the community gathered at the home of Mr. and Mrs. George Beare on Friday evening when a shower of ! gifts was given in honor of Mr. and | Mrs. Roderick Foster. The evening | was spent in dancing and cards. Lunch was served and all enjoyed the get-together, On Saturday afternoon while crossing the highway, Ivan Speers unfortunately met with an acci- dent by running into the path of an oncoming car. Dr. Rennie, of Port Perry, was called. He took him to his office where an X-ray showed injuries to his leg and body. The community wish him a speedy recovery. Mrs. Campbel§ Blakely came home on Saturday after a month spent at Oshawa recovering from her recent illness Miss McFarlahe, of the staff of the United Church Training School in Tomento, visited her friend, Mrs. Mamie Lytle, here for a few days last week.

(181) WANTED TO BUY-ALL KINDS OF Boulter. also new vy By 3 ine night that they are on the verge of bankruptcy, Mr. Grindley said they are very conscious of the si- tuation and are working hard to get out of it. Regarding the serious financial situation in which Britain finds herself, he stressed that for many years that country threw every- thing she had -- the principal on which she lived--into the war ef- fort. For years Britain's financial balance was only achieved through her principals invested 'abroad and during the war she sold these to buy guns. Must Consume Little To recover from this condition, she must consume little or nothing internally as everything she pro- duces is 'potential international currency. The result is that string- ent - rationing is being continued and clothing factories, for instance, are working on a 75 per cent quota for export. Industry, Mr. Grindley, told his listeners, has made "very definite progress." Steel -output, for in- stance has risen by one and one- quarter million tons per year since the end of the war and the weekly average coal production for January, 1948 showed a 12 and one-half per cent increase over that of the same month a year ago. As for nationalization, however, he said that while at the first probably 75 per cent of the people were enthusiastic about its pros- pects the man in the street is not so sure of it now. It had appeared as a way to reduce the amount of money going into the pockets of people who do not produce but now the expenditures of administration 'were being found at least as great as the expenses which included financiers' profits. The labor supply for normal manufacturing is still scarce, he added, reasons for this being that Britain's armed forces are still too large as compared with her popu- lation; the urgent need for®eplac- ing bombed buildings; and the fact that such industries as fishing and coal production are priority indus- tries. The speaker was introduced by Rotarian Bob Butt and a vote of thanks to him was moved by Ro- tarian Charles King. Times.Gazette classified ads pay =--Why not try oue today.
