PHONIC day's happy features in d speech which' prefaced the general award of prizes. He expressed his own pleasure' at be- ing present with the "Faniily," and congratulated the men whose earnest efforts had made the day such an outstanding success. On' behalf of the Picnic Association, he welcomed those who attended the picnic as visitors, His pride in Osh- awa as a city was next expressed in earnest words, in which were embodied his abiding faith not only in this city's future growth and success, but his be- lief in the splendid destiny of all Can- ada. Prosperity, he declared, was again blessing this beloved Dominion, and speaking on behalf of his own vast in- dustry, he believed that a continuance of prosperity, with continuous employ- ment in the main, might be confident- ly expected. He closed his speegh by speaking in behalf of the Employees Investment Fund in which 74 per cent of those in General Motors are already interested. Partners in Business "By this time next year," he said, "I hope that the percentage will have risen to nearly 100 per cent. "We want every man and woman in our employ to be partners in the busi- ess. "Your investment is guaranteed to earn six per cent compounded semi- annually; the money you invest are supplemented by a bonus of fifty cents for each dollar invested, both of which draw interest. Your security is as good as bank stock, but that is not all. While you are guaranteed six per cent on your investment, each em- ployee who saves by this means up to 20 per cent of his salary, not ex- ceeding $300 yearly, may receive a much larger return through profits Je- rived from general investments of funds deposited." Col. McLaughlin then illustrated the profit sharing clause by stating that members of the investment classes of 1919, 1920 and 1921, who had de- posited up to the $300 maximum each vear of the seven year period that an investment class has to serve before its members become eligible for a divi- sion of profits, were paid $10,000 in round figures as original capital ae- crued interest, and profits. Sure Independence "Ladies and gentlemen," Col. Me- Laughlin declared, "we cannot guar- antec such profits to new investors, no more than we could have guaranteed them to the classes of 1919 and fol lowing years. But I can say that those who come into this fund will, in the course of a few years, be in an inde- pendent position." Col. McLaughlin concluded his dress by calling for three cheers for the committees who had made the 1927 picnic such an outstanding suc- cess. These with a roaring tiger at the end were heartily given. As General Motors' president re- tired, the throng voluntarily awarded three cheers to Col, Mclaughlin, i The day's features included a gen- eral program of general sports and competitive events which were bal- anced by scheduled attractions. The latter included a ferris wheel, merry- go-round, whip all of which were in constant operation throughout the day for the enjoyment of the little folks, Rides on those devices were included in the day's issue of free tickets to children under 14 years of age, which provided each child with four ice cream cones, chocolate bar, bottle of soda water, a baloon, box of pop corn, and a souvenir cap. appy Children South of the road throughout the day a Punch and Judy show held an absorbed audience.

Band moved melodiously about the grounds like a merry comet, hundreds of gleeful youngsters following it re- presenting the tail. The story of the Pied Piper of Hamelin Town acquired a touch of reality in watching the clown musicians and their happy fol- lowing. The day had its story of lost chil- dren to tell, but all were eventually re- turned to their parents through the efficiency of the system provided to care for such unavoidable incidents. Of minor accidents, the Red Cross field hospital reported 90 cases, rang- ing from cut fingers to a little lad un- fortunate enough to be hit on the chin by a baseball bat. Only a very few were in enough pain to require being sent to their homes, and the low tocal of accidents--even of the most minor nature--speaks eloquently of the staff work done before' the picnic in order that the day might not be shadowed by any serious mishap. A mother's rest room was provided under the care of capable matrons. This tent was the headquarters for lost children, and several happy re- unions were staged there between an- xious parents and little ones oppressed by the horror of being "lost." Boy Scouts' Work Headquarters had its own marquee which was also the picnic's checking room. A platoon of Boy Scouts there rendered splendidly efficient service throughout the day. They specialized in information and personal service, and their courtesy and helpfulness wrote another shining page in the an- nals of the organization which seems to have long since outgrown its content with merely one good deed each 24 hours. Daylight fireworks, morning and af- ternoon, thrilled thousands of specta- tors. In a roped off field north of the road, these projectiles were discharged with roar reminiscent of the Western Front, to be followed later by a mid- air pop when some odd member of the aerostatic family made an appearance --airplane, bird, flags, dirigibles or what not--and floated lazily to earth. Not lazily, however, was the manner in which hundreds of youngsters chas- ed these floating fantasies as souvenirs, Special Features Splendid open air vaudeville features were given from the north fields' band stand. These included the "Masked Hercules" and J. E. Hardy, famous aerial artist performing on a tight ire. The "Masked Hercules" lived up to his name, both in mystery and strength, A committee of General Motors exe- cutives were on the platform with him and stood warrant that his work was not "faked." His program began with one hand broom breaking to music, and proceed- ed through various rod bending stunts, some held between his teeth, to a point where a long steel bar 8% inches thick and five inches wide was laid across his shoulders at the neck junc- tion, and bent by twelve men, six on either side, The climax came when the Masked i Hercules was tied with a hundred feet of stout rope and 75 feet of logging chain, remaining seated in a chair the while. He managed to break out of this entanglement in record time. "The Masked Hercules" is a member of the local command of the Canadian Legion, and plays in its Pipe Band. He is a veteran of the 13th Battalion, Montreal, and was wounded very seri- ously at the second battle of Ypres. Hardy's' tight wire performance was of the highest excellence. His features were riding the wire on a tyre-less bi cycle, backward and forward; mid~wire 16 Choice Building Lots Gliddon Avie "ind 'Yonge Stregt Terms Arranged Apply (evenings) WardenBrown ... 89 Ritson Road S.... of DR.

Earth shocks were also felt in Andjin in the same region, STRUCK BY EXPRESS TRAIN, HALIFAX MAN I8 KILLED Halifax, N.

Following the presentation of prizes, the massed bands of the 48th High- landers, Toronto, under Captain John Slatter as bandmaster, and the Onta- rio Regiment Bard, under Sergeant Jones, acting bandmaster, gave a con- cert and led, in the comumnity sing- ing. Bands Numbers of their program included "Land of Hope and Glory" by Elgar; "The Bells of St. Mary's," a medley of British airs; "Soldiers Chorus" from Faust ; ind many other favorites.

The Day's Close Boys forming the Salvation Army's band contributed much to the picnics success from the musical standpoint. The concluding feature of the day was a display of fireworks which gave particular delight to the children whose young eyes, if not too tired by the time a summer night in Canada dark- ens enough to make the proper back- ground, find infinite material for youth's long, long thoughts in the flam- ing splendor of rocket or bursting stars. Members of the General Motors plant corps of watchmen co-operated with city police in directing traffic and exercising a general police superyvi- sion over the great throng. The work both of city police and of the watch- men was highly commended, and the minor character of road accidents adds cniphasis to public comment. The Oshawa Railway Company co- operated in every way towards the efficient movement of throngs both to and from the lake.
