Evidence by Pickering Constable Donald was that a car owned by Marja had been in collision with a telephone pole, on the early morning of July 15.

No Funds For Grant, Ajax Board Says Ajax Hospital fund will probably have to get along without anything in the nature of a municipal grant from the Improvement District of Ajax, it was learned following a meeting of the Board of Trustees this month. A letter from the Board of the Ajax and Pickering District Gen- eral Hospital under the signature of Roger Conant, Chairmen of the Board, was read soliciting support in their financial drive. "We have no money" said Trus- tee Rideout and Chairman John Mills went on to explain to Roger Conant, who was present in sup- port of his letter, that the only money the Trustees had comes from Central Mortgage, actually the only taxpayer, which would then be re- turned to Central Mortgage. However, the matter may be dis- cussed further at another meeting.

Says Management of Profits Is Important That it is essential to so manage profits that an even balance of benefits may be maintained between the employer, the employee and the consumer, was the message conveyed in a film shown at the weekly lun- cheon of Whitby Rotary Club Tues- day at Hotel Royal. It was stressed that in the management of profits intelligence and skill were required, and that in order that any business may remain in the vanguard of progress it Must look to the future, keep up with present day demands, and by careful management and control seek to give the investor a fair return for his money. "There is much today to be done if we want to be around tomorrow," it was stated. The film was brought to Whitby by Everett Fleming, local repre- sentative of a large manufacturer of adding and, other business ma- chines in Canada and the United States, and the business manage- ment and expansion policy and the many comforts and conveniences provided for its employees were held up &s an example of what can be accomplished when careful and proper considefation is given to profits management. The film unfokied & story of what in Business happens when management is di- vided on a common policy to keep in balance of benefits between the employer of labor or investor who furnishes the capital for a busi- ness; the employee who looks for a reasonable wage for producing the goods, and the consumerawho ex- pects the most value for she least money. In this particular case one partner in the business wished to invest the profits in the improve- ment of equipment to make more money and meet stiff competition, while the other was concerned not 80 much with maintenance so long as the equipment would stand up and be serviceable, as with divid- ing the profits with the employees 50 that they might enjoy a higher standard of living and put more money into circulation. Each part- ner went his own way but failure to keep equipment up-to-date with its attendant costs brought about fail- ure, as the equipment, fishing ves sels were out of commission a great deal and the men had to quit be- cause of lack of steady employ- ment. In short, there was a busi- ness failure. Mr, Fleming was introduced by Stew Roblin, and was accorded a hearty vote of thanks. Denmark Also Suffers Its Housing Headaches Copenhagen (AP)-"Sorry, ma- dame," the housing official said, "we have na way of helping you." The woman standing in front of him fainted and fell to the floor. The scene was the housing office in Esbjerg, Jutland, where the houséwife had applied 316 times during the last two and a half years for an apartment for herself and her family. It might happen anywhere in Denmark these days. Builders can't keep pace with the rate people are getting married and building up new families. The cities and towns of Denmark have 800,000 apartments and 840, 000 families, according to the min- istry of housing. This is somewhat better than conditions last year when 50,000 families had no home of their own, which meant that 10,000 new apartments went up during the year. But, with new defence con- struction taking a heavy toll of materials and manpawer--and with prices going up---apartment build- ers won't be able to keep up this 10,000-apartment-a~-year pace. \ a RENTALS HIGH Even those lucky enough to have apartments are having a tough time paying the rent. An apart- ment of two rooms, a kitchen and bathroom may cost 800 kroner ($116) - & month--which is upwards of three weeks' income for the average family. On top of that, the apartment seeker must make a down payment of $1160--more than most families make in a year. The average rent for two and three room apartments before the war was 130 kroner & month, with central heating included. All leases now must be approved by the municipal housing author- ities. If a tenant takes a job in another town, he cannot move there until he has got someone from the other town to take his old apartment. This poses a lot of complications. In some cases there is a four-way swap involving people from four different towns. And all of these apartment exchanges must have the approval of the housing author- Jties in each of the towns.

Canadian Horses Go to Trinidad Montreal -- When the Canadian National Steamships motorship Canadian' Challenger left Montreal last week, she carried a deck load of 11 horses, eight for the Mounted Branch of the Trinidad and Tobago police and three for the Usine Ste. Madelaine sugar estates, Trinidad. The horses were shipped in specially constructed stables on the deck of the ship. Inspector E. H. Ward of the Trinidad police said that this was the third shipment of Canadian horses to go to his force since the end of the war. He said that the police were very pleased' with the horses bought here earlier and he expected that more of them would be bought in Canada. At the pres- ent time they had 38 nts . but, expected to increase this to B4.

Indian Camp 3,000 Years Old Being Explored at Scugog When southérn Ontarie boasts of her early history, she does not seém tO be able to go back much farther than the time of Champlain. In the epan of time that is a. mere three and a quarter centuries. That she has a much elder heritage, dat- ing back two or three thousand years is being proven at the present time by a group of archaeologists from the Royal Ontario Museum, At the southwest tip of Washburn Island on Lake Scugog, roughly eight water miles from Port Perry and two from Caesarea, a field party of six experts headed by Russell Harper, are through a half-mile of campfire ash, or camping sites of the ancient Point Peninsula Indians, Whether this latge encampment was originally made by large num- bers of peoples during a short space of time, or, smaller gfoups over a long period, the diggers hate not yet determined. But they have un- earthed enough proof to know that it 18 very old. In the northérn part of Victoria county an amateur party sponsored by the Department of Education is examining a 350-year-old site. To cottagers and natives, on Washburn Island, the archeologists seem like a queer sort. They spend the daylight hours removing sod and six inches of topsoil from neat five-foot squares. ey shave off layers of dirt with small hand trowels and remove small bits of broken pottery, fish and animal bones, arrow and spear heads, stone net sinkers and the like. And they are elated with their discovery. NOT NEW Washbum Island is not a new | tor relic site. It was first brought to the attention of the museum people 50 years ago by the late Col. George Laidlaw of Lindsay who sent speci. mens and recommended investiga. tioh. The campsites 6f the Point Peninsula Indians were not un- known to the museum even then. There are other such places on Sugar Island of Rice Lake, in Sim- coe County near Oollingwood, on the French River and near Niagara. In all there are 800 campsites of much historical value in Ontatio but very few of the really early Point Peninsula tribe, Their field trip to Sougog this year was further promoted by Frank Ridley of Islington, a prominent amateur archaeologist and Percy 'Wakeford who readily gave his permission for extensive diggihg on his farm. 'BEFORE THE HURONS The reason why there is s0 much interest in the Peninsulas is that they preceded the early Hurons who were almost entirely wiped out by the warlike Iroquois. Our pres- ent-day Mississaugas came into the wilderness many years after the Trcqudts laid waste Southern On- 0. To date from the Peninsula diggings many interesting relics have come to light. Bits of broken pottery of intricate and tasteful pressed designs have proved to the experts that the ancients, aside from hunting and fishing, dabbled in crafts of a sort. Some of the designs show the pattern mark of woven fabrics which, they know, had been woven from the milkweed fibre or wild hemp. There are flint arrow heads of all sizes, some small spear heads, a stone hand adze and a stone net singer. No human bones have been revealed, since this is not a burial ground, but there are bone pieces of deer, catfish, beaver and wild turkey. In places some Iroquois relics have been found in earth layers close to the surface. This indicates to them that these later peoples used the ancient campsites. NO CHARCOAL YET The proof that the archeolo- gists would like most of all to find is campfire charcoal. This matter is radio active and on being tested = 4 by a very sensitive geiger counter, the transmitted rays will tell, from their wave strength, the exact a of the original camping prolif They have as yet found no evidence of this sort. Deputy curator K, E. Kidd, who is supervising the project, said that campfire charcoal retains its radio activity for 10,000 years. Are there natives in Canada whose history goes back thgt far? Yes, indeed, even farther. Mr, Kidd has worked on one remarke able Indian camping site off the east wp of Manitoulin Island on Lake Huron's north shore. At the 900-foot peak of White Mountain, native campsites of a tribe 165,000 years old have been definately established. In fact, he pointed out, the encampment was a mere 15 or 20 miles south of the southernmost tip of the great cone tinental glacier. As watér recede ed, another age group left evidence » of camps on the same mountain, centuries later, and a third spot of almost modern times has been re- vealed & few feet above lake level, Mr. Kidd took off his straw hat, with a jaunty gull feather in the hatband and watched the diggers at their paintaking work: Paul Sweetman, Michael Seary, Mary MacPherson and Mrs. Harper -- and pondered. "Why do North Americans rush to Europe and Asia t0 Wok at anglen ruins?" e 00k his head in it. Here in Canada, he said, ws. the most remarkable proof of ancient civilizations anywhere, and they are part of our country's his- y. LITTLE INTEREST Lack of interest and lack of funds for experts to reveal them to the world, are the two main obstacles archeologists have to surmount. It was ever thus. He stooped to the plot in which he was digging and picked up a piece of dull red substance, "Know what that is?" Flakes of copper, he said, hand ed down between trading tribes be- fore the time of Christ. Where did it come from? Oh, Isle of Royale on Lake Superior; most natives in central North America got their copper there. . Of casual interest to Mr. Kidd but of amazing knowledge to the rest of us.
