Fred Story, Returned S. A. Missionary, Shows Slides of Work TELLS OF CONDITIONS Superstitions Pe ail, 'Mak- 'ing Country Over-run By . Primitive Peoples + } tq -- A fine illustrated address on work - in South America was given' Monday 'evening in Simdoe street 'Church by Rev. Fred. W, R. Story, a missionary returned from: the southern con- tinent.. The migsion field with which he is connected lies inland in Paraguay and southern Brazil, It is a "union" inasmuch as it is undenominational and now con- sists of a group uniting what were formerly three smaller missionary groups, Except one be given such in- formation, and look upon such Dlctyres as were exhibited last evening, no one gould well be- leve the animalism, the base, demonic superstitions which still prevail in that land '"'where ev- ery propsect pleases." The asser- tion of the French historian Paine ~='ag is the soil so is the people." --i8 amply demonstrated by these Indians of South America. Where nature seems to do everything for a man there man will do very lit- tle for himself, Most peoples give some evidence of effort to learn, acquire, progress, but would appear that there are mil- lions of natives in the hot moist tropical climes of our sister con- tinent who after many hundreds of years are just where they were at the beginning, Nothing was made more vividly evident in this lecture than the effectual power of Christ in spir- itual, moral and intellectual trans- formation, The 'before and af- ter" pictures were astonishing in their difference, The faces of the natives change. Remove the deadly fear of demonic spirits, re- move the locks which imprison the brain, plant love, peace, puri- ty and power through Christ and then everything which we know and prize as Christian civilization springs into being, And all in one short generation. The argu- ment presented last evening was one which no opponent of mis- sions could long withstand, Rev. Story will give another {1- lustrated address in King Street church on Wednesday evening, ADD NAME TO "INDIAN LIST" E. H. Tane Pays a Fine of Fifty Dollars and Costs-- Permit Cancelled A finé of $560 and costs, with : cancellation of his liquor permit ' and the placing of his name on the "Indian" list, was the penalty : 4mposed this morning by Magis- trate Hind on E. H. Tane, who pleaded guilty to a charge of being . "intoxicated, Tane was arrested about mid- t on Athol street east, and in « eourt this morning Crown Attorney : MeGibbon stated that me had while ' under liquor's - 'His wife, He said forcefully that, "# he was convicted again of such influence, abused an offence, he would ask the rate to order the infliction "of the lash, so that he might get "a taste of his own medicine," Tane was a fine man when sober, the Crown Attorney continued, but when intoxicated was a very dif- ferent man. In view of the fact that liquor was "apparently the cause of his troubles, Magistrate Hind ordered his permit cancelled and stated that his name would be put on the forbidden list, so that now it is illegal for anyone to give him or even offer him any slcoholic beverage whatever.

Storie Says Leadership Essential to Community Progress In an interview with The Osh- awa Daily Times today, Alex, G. Storie, Vice-President of Fittings Limited and President of Oshaw4 Rotary Club gave the following word of ' encouragement to the Chamber of Commerce campaiin now in progress: Leadership is essential to ecivi: and community progress, Without leaders to formulate plans, direct their execution, enligt a following and inspire that following to dc- tion, no civic undertaking can hope for success. The experience of other cities has been that the Chamber of Commerce develops such essential leadership as no other organization can do. It mob- olizes the hesy thougat, influence and service of the citizens and unites them for collective action in the attainment of desired vosulte, The present movement to organize the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce on a sound financial foundation should meet with the hearty ap- proval and active support of every business man in Oshawa, BETTER SEED FOR ONTARIO COUNTY Is Slogan Adopted By 'the Advisory Agricultural Council "Better Seed for Ontario Coun- ty" was the slogan at a meeting of the Advisory Agricultural Coun- cil, the Agricultural Committee of the County Cpuncil, and the local Agricultural Representative, held at Whitby, February 15, The opinion of the meeting was that it would be in the best inter- ests of Agriculture in Ontario County to get behind the Provin- cial "Better Seed Campaign" ac- tively as a county. It is a well-knowy fact that a great deal of poorly cleaned and ungraded seed grain is used for seeding every year, not due to a lack of knowledge, as one member put it, but due largely to indiffer- ence or a lack of foresight in not getting seed grain cleaned up be- fore the rush of seeding. It was recognized that possibly the greatest single factor within the control of nearly every farmer in the increasing of his crop yield is the efficient use of the Old Fan- ning Mill. All grain put through the fan- ning mill three times; the treat- ment of grain for smut; the use of better varieties where the farmer is not satisfied with his present vari- eties, and more thorough cultiva- tion would increase yields by five to ten bushels per acre. In 1926 there were 129,521 acres of oats, berley and mixed grains in Ontario County which yielded on apn aver- age 29.5 bus. per acre. An increase of even five bushels per acre valuing the increase at fifty cents a bushel would mean $323,302.00 extra farm revenue in the County. i It was decided at the meeting to hold a series of Barn meetings throughout the County during March. 4 A list of farmers having good seed for sale will be compiled at the office of the Department of Ag- riculture at Uxbridge. : The members of the Advisory Agricultural Council are all well- known farmers in their townships. Members: --R. B. Smith, Colum- bus; John Seoit, Claremont; Cook Ashenhurst, Uxbridge; G. A. Her- on, Blackwater No. 1; R. H. Do- ble, Udney No. 1; Lorne Bagshaw, Udora; Chas. Lee, Uxbridge, Wm.

Some day every driver will subservient to man himself. He dealt with the subject from four standpoints, the social, intellectu- al, religious and moral aspects. Everything else in the world is a side issue when compared to man and work among men, Working with people, no matter in what way, is of vast importance, and absolutely necessary that the world may improve. The speaker lauded the idea of democracy, at the same time warning that this very democracy is the most liable to inroads of a demagogue unless the people forming the democracy, whether in government, religion or any other sphere are sufficiently educated to keep control really democratie, Prof. McCrimmon drew many contrasts between people, some of which leaned more to one side of life--social, religious intellec- tual or whatever it might be-- pointing out that man in general, the man at large In the world, is prone to 'develop along one par- ticular line, One of the four chief aspects is likely to dominate, and development of personality, along a well-rounded idef is what really mattters. The home, he continued is the lace where the greatest opportunity is given to produce the kind of people we want in the nation, Men of to- day, he declared, despite ideas of philosophers who tend to show a predestined life and the training of todays people will mould to a great extent what tomorrow's na- tion will be, TWINS RAISED APART UNITED (Continued From Page 1) and preparing a report itor Dr, H, H, Newman, head of the Department of the University, The case was brought to light when an article written by Dr, New- man in the New York Times, was copied by a Canadian newspaper stating that the only such type of twins was to be found in Wyoming, Miss Redman wrote to Dr. Newman pointing out their own case. This re- sulted in the University sending "a representative to Oshawa, A rather romantic story is attach- ed to the lives of the young ladies here, When but eighteen months old, their mother, Mrs, William Pye, died at her home in Chelsea, London, England, Alice was adopted by friends of her father while Olive was adopted by her aunt and uncle, Mr, and Mrs, '1, Redman, who soon after came out to Canada and are residing at 234 Gliddon avenue, The twins never saw each other again until they were ten years of age when Olive went to England for a visit and a brief stay. About a year ago Alice's foster parents died within a short time of each other and she then came to live with her sister at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Redman. The young ladies are now nineteen years of age but despite the fact that they were raised in different coun- tries under different environmen: they are identical in almost every way. They have reccived the same amount of education, and are both connected with the office staff of the General Motors of Canada Limited here. They resemble each other so closely that only their most intimate friends can tell them apart. Dr. Bertha Mitchell in discussing the case with a representative of The Oshawa Daily Times explained that they were making a special study of the two types of twins, They had known of only one other case and the twins in that case were raised on Wyoming ranches. The influence of environment on physical or heredit- ary likeness was the chief features to be studied. This included, finger prints, mental ability, and the many other phases which the professors believe will aid them in their research work. Dr. Mitchell commented on the fact that the likeness was iden- Jcal and was much elated over « covering such a case tor which they had been searching for a long per- The foster parents of Alice were Mr. and Mrs. J.

CHINESE "APPEAR IN COURT HERE ON GAMBLING CHARGES Magistrate Hind Reserves Judgment in Cases of All Sixteen RESULT OF RAID Counsel for Accused Asks for Dismissal of Ten of the Charges Judgment was reserved in police court this morning by Magistrate Hind, after he had heard the evidence in the charges of gambl- ing on the Lord's Day proceeding against sixteen Chinese residents of the city, Judgment will be hand- | ed down, the magistrate intimated, on Monday, February 27. Bail was renewed in all eases, The men were represented by J. P. Mangan, who, ence for the defence had been heard, asked for dismissal of ten of the charges on the ground that the men had not been identified as having been sitting around the tables, and in the other six on the ground that gambling for money had not heen established, although it had been shown that they had been sitting around tables, playing dominoes and Mah Jong, Crown At- torney McGibbon held that posi- tive identification was not neces- sary, since they had all been found in the house, and that, since they were Orientals, identification by an Occidental was extremely dif- ficult; also pointing out that money had been found by the officers. Evidence for the prosecution was heard at the previous hearing of the case, showing that the six- teen men had been found in the Bond street house on Sunday, Jan- uary 29, and that money had been seen on the gambling tables by the officers making the raid. The de- fence witnesses absolutely denied playing with money, or making any gain whatever out of the play, say- ing that they were merely playing to pass the time, PRAISES ENTERPRISE OF OSHAWA CHURCH Editor of The Oshawa Dally Times, Dear Sir:-- I had the good fortune last Thursday evening to be in your city and by invitation I attended the "At Home" held in King street United Church. It was an event long to be remembered and quite unique, I imagine. At least I never saw anything quite like ft before. It was estimated twelve hundred men, women, boys and girls were gathered in happy fel- lowship. The Church Auditori- um, galleries, Sunday School hall and basement were all utilized to accommodate the crowd. Some three or four hundred happy child- ren under proper supervision, were in the basement, while the older folks were most interestingly en- tertained in the church. In the midst of the activities, the pastor conducted a& 'Worship Period," when scriptures and prayer thrown on the screen, were reepated by all. A very fitting and beautiful touch, Later moving-pictures to amuse young and old, were thrown on the screen and also reports of the church's activities. Without going into detail re- garding the program, I would say it was excellent throughout, the pastor, the Rev, Mr. . DeMille, making no small contributions to its excellence. If more of Oshawa's children were brought under such influ- ences there need be less said about the delinquency of your city's youth, Thanking you for this privilege of expressing my appreciation of what one Church, at least, is do- ing for the moral welfare of our youth, I am Yours very sincerely, F.

In speaking of the enlargement of the school, Mr. Mitchell congratulated the Separ- ate School trustees on the appear- ance of their building, and ex- pressed the appreciation Board of Education as a whole that they are keeping ceeding the high average of the city in school Accommodation , In declaring the hall and new school rooms officially open, May- or Preston in a short ceremony and brief address stated his own commendation of the work of the Separate School officials, The hall is of a very nice size to ac- commodate the people of the par- ish, and will fill another nook in the life of the city as a whole, In the education of the children, too, the addition to the schhool' sac- commodation is very creditable, both in capacity and adaptability. Rev. Father Bench fittingly re- plied to the speakers stating briefly his appreciation of the ex- cellent response of the Board of Education and others to the invi- tations whic had been extended. He expressed his pleasure at the remarks of the mayor and chair- man of the education board and of the favorable comments which had been made by others attend- ing the function.
