Lindsay Defeats Merchants 13-7 In Holiday Tilt By JIM MCCARROLL In a fast - nine-inning game in Lindsay yesterday, the Lindsay nine took advantage of the Merchants, by the help of three passed balls and helping themselves to nine stolen Bases. The Merchants outhit Lindsay 12-11, but Lindsay seemed to get the breaks at the right time. Both teams scored their runs in only two innings but Lindsay put the game on ice with a ten-run out- burst in the seventh. L. McTaggart went the route for Lindsay, while for Whitby Neal started but gave way to Crawford in that hectic seventh inning. Lindsay left eight men stranded while Whitby left seven.

CLASS PICNIC The Young Adults class of the Brooklin United Church held a closing picnic last Friday evening at Greenwood park. A very lovely supper meeting was arranged by Charlie o ° Three years ago Charles Thomas came to Ontario from the United States looking for a suitable loca- tion for an industry which had excellent Canadian market pros- pects. After visiting many places, with the help and co-operation of the Ontario Government Indus- trial Bureau and the industrial de- partment of the Canadian National Railways, he selected Whitby for several reasons, One was that a good building, known, as the Cohen box factory, adjoining the CNR uptown station was available and deemed suitable. Another was that Whitby has 60 cycle power which was necessary to operate the machinery which Mr. Thomas and his company wished to move in. Still another reason was Whit- by's excellent geopraphical loca- tion, on the main lines of the two transcontinental railways and on excellent paved highways. And there was also the fact that Whitby is close to the Toronto market, which Mr. Thomas wished to cultivate. The result was that Mr. Thomas opened the first mill in Canada under the name of the Pal-O-Pak Manufacturing Company. In the United States where other mills and subsidiaries are located, the company operates under another name, and it is a large organiza- tion. Mr. Thomas is president of both the American and Canadian companies and interested in the banking business all his life, is a director of the First Wisconsin Bank of Milwaukee. The volume of business enjoyed by the Canadian company in Whitby ' has increased year after year, with the result that a ready market is found for the company's products. In the Whitby market, also, sales are increasing. The company ships its products as far west as Vancouver and as far east as Moncton in the east. Only recently a full car load was sent to Regina. All the company's products are approved by the Canadian Standards Association, The bags in which shipments are made have the word 'Whitby' printed on them in large letters in red, so that in this way the town receives much valuable adver- tising. "We like it very well in Whitby, and in fact, we are quite happy here," Mr. Thomas tcld The Times- Gazette. With his wife he lives at 222 Dunlop Street West. Mr. Thomas is a an active member of the Whitby Rotary Club and also of the Chamber of Commerce. He firmly belives that Whitby with its fine location and many advan- tages has a bright future. The Whitby Boy Scouts are in- debted to Mr. Thomas because he buys all the paper from them collected several times a year. The Scouts receive considerable re- venue from this source and it is used for camp and other purposes. the following committee members: Mrs. Blight, Miss Laura Prentice, Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Stevenson, Mr. and Mrs. R. Milner and Mrs. Jack Patterson. Twenty-eight members of the Young Adult Class were assembled for supper. Relay races and a game of softball were enjoyed then all gathered around the campfire for the closing meet- ing. A sing song was followed by a short business session and worship service brought the evening to a close. At the Sunday school service last Sunday morning in the Brook- lin United Church, the annual affiliation service of the CGIT girls, and the United Church Mis- sionary Society was held. Leaders Mrs. R. Hall and Miss Verna Dowse were both in attendance and Miss Dowse on behalf of the Girls pre- sented their annual gift to the missionary society and it was re- ceived and acknowledged by Mrs, Jack Patterson, president of the BROOKLIN INSTITUTE (Continued on Page 3) T.
