Prevlous to the opening oif the carnival the Canadian Legion band paraded through the main street and then played a program on the Post Office corners. Sharp at eight o'clock Mayor M. J. Elliott, Charter President of the Rotary Club T. S. Holgate and President Geti. W.1 James mounted the band plat! orm and the ceremony oif handmng over the park to the town was conducted. Rotanian Holgate in handlng over the deed o! the park recalled the use to which these lots had once« been put and brie! ly outlined the histony tof its formation as a park for the town of Bowmanville. On be- bal! tof the club he then handed the park oven to the town with the res- ervation that the Club be allowed to put futher expense on it if they1 desined.1 Mayor Elliott in a brie! reply spoke o! the splendid work being1 carried on by the Rotary ClubinIn the town and expressed the thanks1 o! the citizens in general fan the splendid gif t and the spirit that prompted t.

The bothsE were laid out in a bal! crcle and a1 steady stneam o! eagen buyers kept1 the booth, attendants busy until a1 late hour. On the platform just in- ide the entrante of the park Robet Lowens and his Canadian Legion Band presented a splendid program of vairied selections that greatly added to the enjoyment o! tbe ev- ening.

Behind them as tbey went their rounds trailed scores o! kîddies wbo delight- ed in tbe muit and dresses oif theI band's members. David Morison Sr., was in charge o! this band and they certainly did their share to belp on the evenig. The refneshment booth "manned" by tbe ladies or Rotary Amies did a roaing trade all evening and the cool wind that blew across tbe park made the bot tea and coffee tbey distributed doubly welcome. Delit- ious sandwiches were also a feature o! this stail. At other booths the attendants were kept busy supply- ing the crowd witb bot dogs, ice cream and pop o! varlous colors and ffavors. Harry Allin bad charge o! tbe Rot Dogs, while Fred Cryderman and bis worthy assistants "dished'" out the ice cream and sof t drinks.

The Minister of Trade and Commeldce at Ottawa, shows a gain of 850 since the last census was taken i 1921. This re- presents a growth of 26.29% and dispels the popular idea that Bow- manville is going backwards instead of ahead. While these figures are assumed to be correct it is admitteci that there is littie chance of them bemng otherwise and so Bowmanville citi- zens may sit back with the assur- ance that a certain amount of hea- way is being made. To what this growth is attributable is doubtful but it is generally conceded that the natural growth of industry has been the cause. The Goodyear Tire & Rubber plant here, is in normal times employing a large number of employees more than they were a decade ago. In addition the R. M. Holingshead Co. provides work for a good nuniber, while the Foundry is also employing more hands than in 1921. On the other hand it is doubtful whether either the Knitting Factory or the Dominion Organ & Piano Co. 4s employing as many hands, so that the growth must be partly attribut- ed to other causes. One of these causes must be the frequent visits of the stork, and another might also be the fact that through the depression a great many citizens wlio have been working outside the town were resi- dent here when these. figures were made. Among the neighboring towns and cities it is interesting te note that Port Hope shows an increase of 274 LOCAL MERCHANTS WILL FILL DEMIANUS FOR SCHOOL SUPPLIES Speclal Effort Made t.
