Colorful Film On South Africa Shown Tomorrow Calvary Baptist Church has been ortunate in securing the Rev. ank Mason, recently arrived from South Africa, to show a technicol- our film, with full sound track, of South Africa in all.of its attractive colour and appeal. Opening with the incomparable beauty of Table Mougtain with its massive flat- topped bastion of granite rising to a height of 3,550 feet, it moves along the exquisite and superb Marine Drive of 100 miles that encircles the whole of the Cape Peninsula. From there it shows the beautiful Garden Route between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth, one of the finest centres of travel interest in the whole of Squth Africa. Those who have never seen pictures of the CAngo Caves and the great ostrich farmg of Oudtshoorn, the still la- goons and the pounding surf of the Wilderness near the foot of the great Outeniqua Range, should see all that this Tuesday in all of its brilliance.

Sunday Evening Concert By Civic and Band Greatly Motorists in cars parked by the McLaughlin Band Shell last night played request solos on their horns. They were joining in the applause of a large crowd for the first Sun- day evening summer concert of the Oshawa Civic and Regimental Band. Taking advantage of the fine evening a large crowd turned out to listen to the red-coated band champions, Master of ceremonies for the evening was M. McIntyre Hood, whose brother, Sergeant G. Hood was the conductor for the evening. There were two solo arfistes, Mr. A. Wedgery, the baritone soloist of Simcoe Street United Church Choir, was called back for an encore after rendering four items--"The Sun- shine of Your Smile," "Friend O'- Mine, "Come Sing to Me" and "I Love Life." He was accompanied on the piano by Mrs. G. E. Flem- ing. Winner of the open euphonium class and B-Flat Bass Class at the Waterloo Festival last month, Cor- poral W. Askew played two solo airs by Hawkins, "The Londonderry Air" and "Drink To Me Only With Thine Eyes." Conversational introductions to each piece in the varied and bal- anced programme were given by Mr, Hood. The concert opened in traditional fashion with the famed "Knightsbridge March" by the Eng- lish composer Eric Coates. Franz Lehar provided the band with its equally traditional follow-up waltz Regimental Enjoyed "Gold and Silver." "On this quiet and beautiful Sun- day evening this item is in keep- ing with the atmosphere. As the band plays one can almost visual- ize the monks walking around their cloister singing their songs," said Mr. Hood when he announced that the band would play A. Ketelby's "In a Monastry Garden" as its characteristic itermezzo. From the lighter classics the band chose Franz Schubert's "Lilac Time" for six items. Each piece was heralded by a change in the dif- fused lights of the Shell. W. Myddleton set the dream of an old military man to music in his descriptive patrol "Phantom Bri- gade," which was one of the band's last items. The swelling martial music portrayed the dream of a general as he visualinzl his old vie- torious brigade eweeping past in their triumphal march. Variations on Handel Parker's famous hymn tune, "Sunset to Sun- rise" was the closing hymn. The band ended the programme with their rousing regimental march, the old English hunting song, "John Peel," before playing "The King."

Then Job answered and said, Oh that I knew where I might find him! that I might come even to his seat! Behold, I go forward, but he is not there; and backward, but I cannot perceive him: But he is in one mind, and who'can turn him? and what his soul desireth, even that he doeth." 3 Property Being Bought for Harmony Church Above is the property on the corner of Harmony Road North and Highway No. 2, which is bei .g bought by the Mission and Church Extension Board of the United Church of Canada, and on which a c .urch for the Harmony district will be located.

Annual Carnival Of Local Branch Great Success The annual Legion fair which yas brought to a con- clusion on Saturday night with a draw for an automobile was an unqualified success and, as the result, the many charities to which the proceeds will be devoted are in a much more liquid state financially today. Officials of the Oshawa branch of the Canadian Legion were pleased to see that on Saturday. night there was a repeat performance of Fri- day night's large and enthusiastic attendance. ® Feature of the Saturday night, fair was, of course, the draw for the automobile which was made by Mayor Michael Starr.

Miss Lander, who works at the local office of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Com- pany, will "be officially presented with the automobile at the Legion Hall at 7.30 o'clock this evening. The games, which were a big feature of the show which was held in a roped-off area in the vicinity of the Metcalfe-Centre Street in- tersection, were well patronized on both evenings and by the number of prizes which were seen being lugged away, the participants were given an even break for" their money. Friday night's feature attraction wag the draw for the washing ma- chine. Miss Bertha Lambe, Presi- dent of the Ladies' Auxiliary to the Legion, made the draw and the winner was J. Gilagun, 282 Oentre Street. The weather on both days of the fair was good and officials were particularly well pleased on Satur day that the weather remain balmy.
