THURSDAY, JULY 24, 1857 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE xo PAGE FIVE Parents Given Blame For Schoolboy Manners London (CP) -- British school- boys, especially the fat variety, are none too pleased about the re- buke they received from speakers at the annual conference here of the Association of Headmistresses. The boys were bluntly told they lacked a show of good manners in public, while the palm for exemp- lary behavior was extended to the girls--mainly "those between the ages of 17 and 20. . Said Miss L.E. Savill, a retired headmistress living in Oxford: "I travel a great deal in buses and what I hear so often from parents is 'don't you move--you paid for your seat.' "I watch old people and those returning home after a tiring day's 'work, standing while these fat boys sit unconcernedly, never dreaming of getting up. Perhaps Oxfordshire manners are worse than others." . Miss B.A. Tonkin, of Harrow, agreed. She had never met a schoolboy--certainly not the blub- bery variety--who had given up his seat on a bus or train. Such courtesy, she added, was usually confined to schoolgirls and girls between 17 and 20 who had just left school. 'Parents have to be taught con- sideration and kindness before the school can. drill these qualities into the children," Miss Tonkin said. "If patents say 'don't you get up,' the parents will always win." - Argyll Pipers Fly To Clan Gathering Hamilton (CP) -- Lt.-Col. John A. Farmer.

Oil Pipeline To Connect Three Towns Toronto (CP) -- Trans-Northern Pipe Line Co., Ltd. yesterday an- nounced plans to build a petro- leum-products pipe line connecting Montreal with Ottawa, Toronto and Hamilton. British American Oil Co. Ltd. Shell Oil Co. of Canada, Ltd. and McColl=Frontenac Oil Co., Ltd., are participating in the project, which awaits approval by the Board of Transport Commissioners, and as- surance of a sufficient supply of steel. No estimate of cost is given, but it is believed to be in the neigh- borhood of $15 million. The main 10-inch line, aboyt 400 miles in length, is expected to traverse the north shore of the St. Lawrence river and Lake Ontario, with terminals at Cornwall. Pres- cott, Brockville, Kingston, Belle- ville, Port Hope, Toronto, Clarkson and Hamilton, all Ontario. A six-inch 44-mile line' would serve Ottawa from a junction in the vici- nity of Cornwall, The line would have an initial capacity of 40,000 barrels daily and would transport finished products-- gasoline, fuel oil, kerosene, etc.-- from refineries of the participating" companies at Montreal East. Most of the crude oil to feed the re- fineries is transported to Montreal by pipe line from Portland, Me., where it arrives by ocean tanker. A. N. Horne, president of Trans- Bquiste flavor! Northern, who made the announce- ment, was formerly vice-president and general manager of the Trans- Arabian Pipe Line Company. He said he hopes construction will start "as soon as authorization is received from the Board of Trans- port Commissioners," adding, how- ever, that "it depends on the avail- ability of steel."
