Women's Institute Saturday At Brooklin The 50th anniversary of the South Ontario Women's Institute, one of the oldest in the province, is to be observed on Saturday next at' a picnic at the Community Park in Brooklin. Included in the district organization are the Whitby, Brook- lin, Honeydale, Shirley, Claremont, Altona, Brougham, Whitevale, Pick- ering and Ajax branches. Following the picnic, to which the women of the different branches, their husbands and children have been invited, a banquet is to be served in the Memorial Arena. A huge birthday cake has 'been pre- pared for the occasion, and there may be some individual ones as well. Those who have accepted an invitation to speak include Walter Thomson, K.C., M.P., for this riding, and Mr. Thos, Thomas, M.P.P. The Premier of Ontario, the Honorable Leslie Frost, has been invited but been received from him. At the head table also will be surviving charter members. .

The tables will be tastefully arranged for the occasion, and it is expected that all branches in the district organiza- tion will be represented. The Times-Gazette hopes, in a day or two, to be able to publish a historical review of the branch and the work it has achieved in half up until last night no reply had a century. Colborne Gets Ball Lesson As Merchants 'Win 12 to 4 ° Whitby "Merchants" gave the | visiting Colborne team a real lesson | in baseball last night at the Whitby Town Park and chalked up their sixth win by virtue of their 12 to 4 victory. Although they were trail- ing four to 0 in the first inning, they came through with a barrage of hits and added runs in five of their six innings to walk away with the spoils, Bob Tyson, classy short- 'stop for the "Merchants", was the big gun at the plate with four hits in four tries including a hard hit double, Close on his heels was Don Yuill with three for four including a double and triple and Gord Neal with two for two, both of them doubles. I. Post, hefty first sacker for' the visitors turned in a fine performance at bat with three solid hits in four tries. The game was a wide open affair with the batters hitting the ball tractically at will, A grand total of twenty-four hits went ringing of the combined offerings of the three pitchers to perform in the gdme and only three errors were committed by each team in the course of the game, Sutton was mowing the visiting batters down in great style, and except for the first inning when he gave up three hits, he had the situation well under control. A total of 13 visiting bat- ters fell victim of his sharp break- ing curve although they did manage to pound out their share of base hits, B. Ball started on the mound for Colborne, but was forced to give way to Hall late in the game when things became too hot for him. Hall fared little better, and before the dust cleared away the County Towners had bashed out a total of 15 hits to fatten their al- ready high batting averages. Both teams played sparkling defensive ball, and although a total of 6 err- ors were committed, they were outweighed by the strong defensive tactics of both teams. Colborne started out the game with a bang, and for a while, the situation looked very black for the "Merchants". The first man up, W, Clarey, tagged the ball for a sharp single, D. Cummings was safe on a fielder's choice, and I. Post came through with a ringing double to drive in the two base runners. A Whitby error followed by another single did the rest of the damage, and the score stood at four to zero at the end of the first half of the first inning. However, Whitby came back with the old college try and managed to push across three runs in the last half of the first frame to pull themselves out of the hole and put them back in the running. Whitby added runs in all but the last of the remaining innings while holding the visitors scoreless. In the second inning, Don Yuill's single followed by Gord Neal's double did most of the damage and two more runs were added to the total. All of the remaining Whitby runs came on solid hits combined with a few walks and before the local players were through, they amassed a total of 12 runs. Colborne threatened to score in the top of the 5th inning, but good pitching in the pinches by Sutton combined with a classy catch by Bob Patte stopped the onslaught. 'The first two visiting batters rap- ped out singles, Hall went down swinging, B. Fox singled to load BOB TYSON classy shortstop for the Whitby Merchants last night got four hits in four tries at bat, to help Whitby Intermediates defeat Colborne by a decisive score of 12-4. the bases, and D. Beatty came to bat with a golden opportunity to break the tie. But he struck out. Then C. Rowsome looped the ball over the infield for what looked to be a hit, but Patte made the catch to end the rally. The game took nearly two hours, to play because of the wide open type of play, but the crowd en- joyed every minute of it. The num- ber in' attendance is growing with each victory the homesters are racking, and few fans ever go home disappointed when the "Merchants" play their home games.

Sir: A recent editorial appeared upon your Whitby page entitled "Council's Quest for Policemen". I am one of the many citizens of this town who agree with you that the Police Force should receive adequate remuneration. There is also agree- ment with you when you state that this is one reason, for undoubtedly there are other reasons and truer reasons why the present serious situ- ation exists in regard to the lack of adequate policing. Did Stuart Martin resign simply because of the salary? Mr. Martin was appointed to the Force, and undoubtedly he knew what salary he would receive when he was taken on, yet he remained on the Force approximately six weeks. It was announced in the Times- Gazette, along. with his photograph, that Phil Burkhart was about to be taken on the force. There is no doubt that Mr. Burkhart knew what the salary would be, yet after con- sidering the matter for two weeks he decided not to join the force. Roy Stirtevant was employed with the Whitby Police Force for some four or five years and apparently had fulfilled his duties in an ac- ceptable manner, yet on resigning he did not give as his reason the fact that he was not receiving ad- equate pay. In regard to Jack Armstrong-- Armstrong had considerable prev- ious experience in police work. He was taken on the force last Octo- ber, and he resigned around the early part of June. Mr, Editor, was inzor uate salary the reason of th'. man's resignation? Mr. James Sleightholm we believe also joined the force and remained as a member for a period of two days, then he resigned. Mr. Sleight- holm undoubtedly before his ac- ceptance of the work of Police officer did have knowledge of the salary that would be paid him by the Town of Whitby. It was stated in the Times-Gazette that he was going to receive a salary of $2,068.00, including sanitary inspection duties. The citizens of Whitby, I believe, are entitled in the light of the above, to a full explanation from the Town Council re "the present serious situation" facing the Town, which said situation you have brought before the Public in your recent editorial. "A Citizen of the Town of Whitby" * bP Mayor Makes Statement When the above letter was read to Mayor Harry Jermyn, and he was asked to comment on it, he stated that the only reason that he or members of the Council had been given by men who had left the force was that they could get more money elsewhere. There was, said His Worship, the cases of Constables Armstrong and Martin, who were roffered $2900 to work for the Gen- eral Motors. It was impossible for the Council to offer wages of this kind. The mayor stated further that as each man quit the force, in- cluding Constable Stirtevant, he had been specifically asked if there was any other reason other than salary, for quitting, and the answer was in the negative. His Worship also added that the Council was making every effort to give the town a first class police force and to this end had just engaged a sergeant with 26 years experience on the Toronto Editorial Comment -Groveside Improvements The improvements made last few years reflect great credit to the president and board of directors, What was once one of the most neglected cities of the dead in this part of the into a place of beauty and dignity. Only those who remember the cemetery in its former state, under private ownership, can fully realize what has been accomplished in a compara- tively short space of time. To the writer, who on Sunday on the occasion of the Brooklin Odd Fellows' annual cemetery for the first time in over five years, the transfor- mation brought about by Caretaker William Dyer under the guidance and direction of the directors, and with the co- operation of such organizations as the Odd Fellows, was a very pleasing revelation. There is not a grave in the whole cemetery that has not been cleaned up and beautified. Rela- tives of some of those who now rest in the cemetery have provided funds for perpetual are a great many other plots, which, although nothing has been paid, receive the same tender care. The grassy slopes have been cut, the walks have and ugly and broken down tombstones and markers are a thing of the past. It is indeed a pleasure, as Mr. W. A. Holli- day said at the decoration service Sunday, to walk about this cemetery and see what has many of our early settlers now rest. The appeal made Sunday by Chairman of the Board Oscar Downey for information of the names and.addresses of next of kin of those buried at Groveside, but for whose plots no provision for care has been made other than that afforded by the cemetery board, so that they can be contacted by the secretary, should not go unheeded. Such information would be gratefully received and would help along the good work of cemetery beautifica- tion and maintenance. Then heavy expenditures which far feel sure, be glad to receive contributions.

Here Oswin of Northumbria fulfilled a vow that he would build a m.. = astery, if he crushed the pagan "Penda." Under Hilda's rule it grew to be the great religious centre ani the nursery of Northern Christian- ity. But great as is this royal lady's name, . greater still through the ages, rolls that of Caedmon, the herd poet. In those days the poorer people were fond of making rhymes and singing them at their feasts, but "Caedmon" had no idea of rhym- ing, and could not sing, so when his turn came, he no sooner saw the harp come towards him than h~ rose from the table and weat home. Once when he had done thus and gone from the feast into the stable "it being his turn to take care of the cattle" he lay down ard went to sleep, and in his dream ne thought someone stood by him and called him by name, sayiig, "Sing, Caedmon, some song to me." 'I cannot sing," he answered, "for this cause left I the feast and come hither."

When Caedmon awoke at day- break he remembered what he | had seemed to sing in his dream, and he went to his master, the bailiff, and told him what hap- pened. The bailiff took him at once to Abbess Hilda, and made him tell her all about his wonderful dream. Hilda listened attentively to 'ne strange story. She and all the monks believed that the poor cowherd had surely received a gift from God. They then read him a passage out of the Bible telling him to icy and put it into verse. The next morning he brought it to them composzd into excellent verse, upon which Hilca, feeling sure that God had called Caedmon to do nobler work than tending cows, commanded him to ccme and live in her monastery as a monk, There Caedmon 'ived and wrote his marvellous poems. He wrote the Creation of the World and Man, and all the h:story of the Israelites, of their gong cut of Egypt and travelling to the Promised Land. He wrote of the Birth and Death of our Lord Jesus Christ and of His Resurrection and Ascension into Heaven, of the Judgment to come, of Hell and the joys of Heaven. Wild and strange does his poetry seem to us now, but it has a beauty of its own and Saint Caedmon may truly be called the "Father of English Poetry." HARRY BATESON, Whitby, Ontario. Many Errors Game Ends In Score Of 24-5 By BILL DYER Brooklin and North Oshawa en- gaged in a comedy of errors in Brooklin Park last night in a Sputh Ontario County Softball league game as Brooklin walloped North Oshawa to the tune of 24-5. Brook- lin committed the most errors of- ficially, being charged with nine but it was only the agility which the North Oshawa players show- ed in getting out of the path of the ball which kept their count down to seven. An example was the hit by Carnswith in the ninth in- ning which went for two bases. The ball was a hard grounder between second and first and both the sec- ond and first basemams rushed to cover first allowing the ball to police force, a man who came very highly recommended and looked very promising. The Council, he added, would be only too willing to investigate any other reason than that of salary which might be given by those leaving the force. His Worship also added that Whitby was not alone in-its difficulty in ob- taining policemen at wages which the General Motors paid. There were other places as well. "You can assure the citizens that we are do- ing our best," the mayor eoncluded. bounce merrily out into the daisies. Allan Mackey had a good night on the mound for Brooklin as he struck out eight batters, allowing only two hits and walked four. He was nearly the centre of a rhubarb in the fourth when he hit Shetler on the side of the head with a fast ball, Shetler made no attempt to duck but he came up heading for Mackey and swinging his bat. The Brooklin batsmen had a field day at the expense of the two Oshawa hurlers, Wilson who start- ed and Lutz who came in in relief in the fifth inning. They nicked Wilson for 13 hits and received sev- en walks while five errors were being committed by his teammates to score 16 runs. Bill Johnston teed off on the first pitch by relief man Lutz for a single to score one run and Brooklin went on from there to score eight runs off 14 hits against him. for five of the outs in three and .one third innings he pitched however with strikeouts. Only one of the five runs scored by the North Oshawa crew was earned as Hoskin and Lutz put to- gether the only two hits allowed by Mackey in the third inning to score a run, The other four runs came on errors. Schell was the chief offender on the Brooklin team committing three errors, two of which brought in runs. Slugger Croxall was the heavy hitter in the Brooklin attack gar nering five hits in five official trips to the plate. He smashed two homers, two doubles and a single. Williams, was close behind him with MANY ERRORS (Continued on page 5) He accounted Engage In Argument Whitby Town Council met for regular business last night and though much work was carried out, the meeting was undistinguished, except for one flare-up between Councillors Joseph McLaren and Russell Underwood over the man- ner in which a certain minor works project is being carried out at the corner of Dundas Street West and Byron Street. Mr. McLaren began propounding his opinions in a loud voice which rose to a shout and Mr. Underwood, who is chairman of the Streets Committee, respond- ed to the criticism by replying at the same time, while his cane wav- ed in the air and banged the coun- cil table. When it became possible that the councillors might finish their argu- ment in physical combat, Deputy- Reeve Seymour Whitney tugged at Mr. Underwood's coattails and managed to seat him again, Assist- ing Mayor Jermyn's attempt to re- store order, Councillor Harold Mace suggested that the belligerant coun- cillors be ejected if they continued their misconduct. Meanwhile the rest of the council looked on, ap- parently bored with the argument. An application from W. G. Sev- ers for a plumbing licence is being delayed by council until the whole question of licences is looked into. The question was to have been dealt with at the last meeting of council, but due to the illness of Councillor Stanley Martin, who is a plumber, the remainder of coun- cil did not wish to proceed. A cheque for $3 was received from the Ontario Ladies' College as ren- tal for the town lawn mower but acceptance was held in abeyance until the machine is thoroughly in- spected because it is alleged it was returned in an unworkable condi- tion. Mr. Whitney expressed the belief that the power mower should not be rented out. Council 'heard a recommenda- tion from Chief Love that the park- ing meter in front of Heard's Gar- age be not removed as requested by them. He said that it does not interfere with the movement of cars in and out of the garage. Speaking on meters, Mr. McLaren contended that they are all improp- erly installed by not being in a strong concrete base and he called upon the metér company to im- prove the installation. Council 'will look over its old ap- plications for the position of con- stable and perhaps advertise for more applications with a view to hiring one or two more men. The strength of the force should be five men but it is only three at present. Chintz was originally calico or cotton fabric from India, each piece being called a "Chint".

After the opening praye®, Mrs. Hannam con- ducted the worship service, reading from the 5th chapter of St. Matthew. The subject of her talk was "The Helping Hand," In her remarks she said that so many people do their little tasks half- heartedly, thinking they don't mat- ter. But we are to be helpers to- gether with God -- each has a work to do and often it is work which only our hands can do.

"It was decided to hold a Group after- noon tea to welcome new raembers end plan for the regular August meeting of the W.A. on th2 second Wednesday in July. Mrs. W. G. Hodson who was re- sponsible for the program told an iuteresting story of Long Leat (Water Course) Estate in Wiltshire, England, near her former home. The Estate was founded in 1515 when the owner, Sir John Thyme who had just been made Marquess of Bath by the reigning sovereign, brought men from Scotland to co the masonry work. These men built a small chapel wherein they migat worship on Sundays while the work was being done. Sunday services are held in this same chapel to this day. The fine old building has sur- vived two wars, part .f it beug ured to shelter evacuees in th2| recent struggle, and much of the original masonry remains intact. Mrs. Hodson stated that the house had 365 windows and much laughter was occasioned when a member re- marked: "One window to clean every day in the year." Mrs. Hodson also gave a short humorous read- ing: "The Cobweb Eye." Member Leaving Mrs. Alves read the address as Mrs. Peel presented Mrs. G. H. Hunter, who is leaving shortly to make her home in Peterborouga, with a lovely electric grill and sendwich toaster on behalf of the group. Mrs, Hunter thanked ill ti members of the group for their wonderful and kind cooperation at all times.

Chote Is Inducted At Millbrook Millbrook -- Rev, Arthur Abel Chote, B.A. L.Th., was inducted into the parish of Cavan by Rt. Rev. A R. Beverley, M.A, D.D, Bishop of Toronto, who was assisted by Archdeacon W. P. Robertson, B.A., of Peterborough, the Rev. H, Hes~ keth, L.Th,, rural dean of Victoria County, and the Rev. Maurice Flint, B.A,, L.Th,, Toronto. A congregation from the three churches in the parish filled the church and baskets of white syringa decorated the altar. Lewis H. Winsdlow, People's Warden, presented the new rector with the keys on behalf of the Wardens of St. Thomas', St. John's, Ida and Christ Church, Bailieboro. Rev. B. W. Horan, M.A,, D.D,, of Wycliffe College, Toronto, deliver- ed a sermon in which he spoke of the dignity and privilege attached to the office of rector. He asked members of the congregation to do their part by assisting in every way possible and by regular church at- tendance. Dr. Horan mentioned the industry and brilllance of Mr, Chote when he knew him as a student at Wycliffe College, and of his having served with distince tionr in the armed forces for 5% years. Charles Farr sang the solo part in the anthem. "O Love That Will Not Let Me Go," by Caleb Semper, Miss Mamie Collins was at the or- gan. The parish hall was decorated with peonies, lemon lilies, syringa and iris for the reception which followed, when Bishop and Mrs. Beverley received with Rev. and Mrs, Chote. Bishop Beverley said that he felt the one lack in the induction service was that while the rector made pledges, none were made by the congregation. He felt that when a new prayer book was made there should be promises of dili- gence and loyalty on the part of the congregation as well as the rector. He was sure the present congregation would give this supe port to the new rector nevertheless, Other visiting clergy were, Rev. F. Lockwood and B. Smyth, of Toronto; Jas. Harvey, Whitby; F. W. Pooley, Omemee; P, C. Howe ard, Bobcaygeon; Rev. T. G. Huse ser and Walter Patterson of Mill- brook, and B. Heywood of Bailie- boro; Canon W, J. Macdonald, Wy= cliffe College, Toronto.
