THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, MARCH 12, 1928 Two Burglaries Over Week- End T hugs "SPECIAL MUSICAL SERVICE HELD AT SINCOF CHURCH Dr. H. S. Dougall Delivers a Message on "Sir Galahad" Simepe Street United Church Sunday evening held a special mu- sical service, and the very large congregation was certainly amply rewarded. Prior to the special music, Rev. Dr. Dougall gave a short address. his subject being "Sir Galahad," Standing within the shadow of the stately pile whieh crowns Parlia- ment Hill, Ottawa, the capital of our Dominion, is a beautiful statue in bronze. It is a human figure symbolic of heroism and nobility of character such as might be sug- gested by Tennyson's most noble knight of the Round Table, Sir Galahad. On its massive granite base, deeply carved, are the pure knight's words: "If 1 lose myself, I save myself." In Canada there is no other such monument, Nor in the world, Tt stands alone, speaking as it were to every son of the Dominion. In enduring brass it shall through the centuries call the youth of our land to a manhood heroic, aspiring, pure. It was erected as a tribute of love by many admiring but sad hearts, On the afternoon of Sat- urday, November 18, 1905, it was unveiled by the Governor-General, Earl Grey, and was accepted on hehalf of Canada hy the Premier, f' Wilfred Laurier, Aut why call this "dir Galahad"? In the twilight of December day, 1901, a skating party on the Ot- tawa river, was joyous in that splendid winter pleasure, Of this party one was Miss Bessie Blair, daughter of Senator Blair, and an- other was Henry Albert Harper. . Miss Blair and the gentleman wno was accompanying her came sud- denly upon an open space of wa- ter, Before there was time to avoid it, they had skated into the open- fng and were at the mercy of the swift current, Harper, who was following at a short distance with a friend of Miss Blair, witnessed the accident and at once went to their assistance. Having sent the young lady with whom he was skat- ing to the shore for help, he him- gelf lay prone upon the thin fee and reaching his walking stick, tried to put in within reach of those in the water. Finding the distance too great, Harper pulled off his coat and gauntlets and pre- pared to risk his life to effect a rescue. In answer to entreaties not to make the venture, that it meant certain death, he exclaimed, "What else can I do?" and plunged into the icy water in the direction or Miss Blair. They perished togeth- er; their hodies were swept under the ice and found the following morning. Miss Blair's companion bad a wonderful escape, otherwise no one would ever have known of the brave deed in which Harper gave his life, So in memory of Henry Albert Harper this monument fitly in- scribed stands. But as one said at its erection.--'Harper did not need this monument, We did. Such herojc fire commemorates itself, But we fellow Canadians of Henry Harper needed to show by practi- cal action that we could see and could reverence the nobility of soul which sent him knowingly to bis grim death." He laid down his life for his friends. And in this deed, one thinks of Jesus who in the largest way did this same thing. The musical service comprised the following excellent musie, most excellently executed anthem. *Re- member Thy Mercies,"" by Farmer. Baritone solo, selected, Mr. George Fleming; Cornet solo, "The Holy City," Adams, by Mr. R, Fountain; duet, "Love Divine," Stainer, Miss Leah Garrow and Mr. E. Jopes; male eborus, "Let the Lower Lights be Burning." Anon; Anthem, "Lor? ™e Pray in Mercy Lead I's", "us. Every number was most ntly produced, and the organ' der, Mr. Renwick, is to be cor '» ed; but without a doubt it *he last number, an anthem by » full choir, "Lord, We Pray in Vey Lead Us," which was the crowning production of the service. Dr. Dougall announced that next Sunday evening he would speak on St. Patrick, the Irish saint, and up- on that evening, also, there would be splendid music. On the next Sunday evening he will have an il- lustrated address upon the suljeect "The Last Judgment." LADY FLAER'S PROGRESS monument Marseilles, March 11.--Lady Mary Bailey completed today an- other stage of her "summer holi- day" 6.,000-mile solo flight to Cape- town when she landed her Moth plane at Marignane Aerodrome. She left Paris this morning, and stopped for a few minutes en route at Lyons for lunch and to refuel the plane. Despite the violent mis- tral, the cold northwest wind of the Gulf Lyons, she dropped down gracefully to the airfield here at 5:20 o'clock this afternoon. From here she will go to Rome, and thence to Northern Africa. "Fashion decrees a hat for every occasion." And [Easter coming along is one of those biz occasions. ~--St. Catharines Standard.

In answer to the complaint, Perel- lo declared she had proposed to him, otherwise he would not have married her. They were married Octobe 8, 1926. WHITBY Representative | JAMES HOLDEN Phone House 13 Office 434 ESTIMATES UP BEFORE COUNCIL Whitby Town Fathers to Arrive at Tax Rate for 1928 (iy Staff Reporter) Whitby, Mar. 12. -- The town council is meeting in the clerk's office tonight for the purpose of tabling the estimates upon which the mill rate for 1928 must he cal- culated. Last year's rate was 38.- 75 mills and until Town Clerk Frost presents his report at the next regular meeting on Mon- day, March 12, it will not be known whether thtre will be an increase or decrease for this year's figures. The matter of taxes is possibly more interesting to the ordinary ratepayer than any oth- er business of the council because it concerns his pocketbook. One unfailing sign of spring is | seen among the boys of public school age these days, namely their recurrence to marble games. Peculiarly - marbles are rarely thought of except at this particu- lar period, midway between reced- ing winter and approaching spring. LIFE IN CHRIST ACHIEVES GOAL Rev, Dr. Dougall Occupies Pulpit Sunday Morning in Whitby Church (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, Mar. 9.--That life in Christ, although unexplainable even as animal and plant life are unexplainable, achieves a definite result, namely the spiritual regen- eration of the person accepting Jesus in true faith formed the hasis of a strong, searching address de- livered by Rev. H. S. Dougall, of the Simcoe street United Church, Oshawa, at the United Church, yesterday morning in-a pulpit ex- change with Rev. A, Mansell Irwin, pastor of the local congregation. The speaker pointed out that men, although ignorant of how seed germinated under favorable conditions to grow and ripen into the mature plant, plant corn in the spring and live in faith to reap it in the fall, Likewise, he stated, persons whose lives are broken by sin or misfortune, often seek Christ for their refuge and are re- stored to peace of mind and happi- ness although they or others do not understand the reason why. Dr. Dougall claimed that there are few who have not wished to see justice, unselfishness and joy crowd out the wickedness and poverty of this world, Men ask whether they shall always be slaves to trials and sin. Jesus is Lhe answer to that cry, continued the minister, who argued that perfect reformation is only possible by the re-union of broken lives with the Saviour, The sure way for one to know whether Christ could accomplish anything for the indiyidual! was to try for oneself. "Know in jourself--you will never know for yourself until you know in yourself," adjoured the speaker, Man needs a spiritual doctor as well as a physical doctor stated the visiting pastor comparing the mystery of the thought "Ye must be born again," to the mystery of sowing seed and reaping mature plants. The preacher, he consider- ed, sowed the sced and it should be no more myslerious to receive the seed and get the "Life," than for a farmer to plant corn and get corn, In conclusion he made an earnest appeal for men and women to try Christ as a panacea for their worries, trials and tempta- tions. PROFESSOR WILSON TO ADDRESS WHITBY BRANCH BIBLE SOC. (By 5 R r) Whitby, Mar. 12--Professor Mercer Wilson, a distinguished theologian of Wycliffe College, Toronto, will be the principal speaker at the annual meeting of the Whitby branch of the Bible Society to be held in the lec ture room of the United Church io- morrow night. in addition reports for the year's activities will be heard and plans wil! be made for the com- ing year. The meeting promises to be interesting and instructive and all those anxious for the world wide spread of the Scriptures are invited to - attend. MARCH ADHERES TO REPUTATION; WELCOME MILD SPELL (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, Mar. 12. -- The vagar- jes of March were clearly demon- strated this week-end with the present mild spell so suddenly succeeding the blustery winter | weather experienced here of re- 'cent date. Sunshine and higher SACRED CONCERT BY REG'T BAND I§ PLEASING EVENT F. L. Fowke in Eloquent Ad- dress Discusses "Great In- terpreter of Life" Under the auspices of Lt. Colonel Chappell and the Officers of the On- tario Regiment, a Sacred Band Concert was held at the Regent Theatre last evening. The theatre was well filled when the program began, and evidenced their appreci- ation of the program with their sus- tained applause after all the num- I'S, Mr. F. L. Fowke gave a brief ad- dress, and said that although he was not going to give a theological dis- cussion, he would take his text from the "great interpreter of life," the Bible. He took his text from the 11th chapter of the Apostle Paul to the Thessalonians: "Study or be am- bitious to be quiet, and to mind your business, and to work with your hands." 'The greatest thing in a man's career was the development of his own personality, and Paul had given the Thessalonians that mes- sage because he wished them to first acquire a distinctive and worth while personality, The Thessalonians be- came the most progressive people of their age, commercially and socially. Lord Burnet had said, "That what happens after a man is thirty does not matter." The world belongs to the young forces, said Mr. Fowke. It is advisable for them to listen to in- struction - from high places, The world was not moved by multitudes but by a great Invisible Force, The quiet men of the world had been the thinkers, the scientists, the fore- es that had moulded the world's opin- ions. Sir Isaac Newton, Emmanuel Kant, John Bunyan, were among the examples of "quiet" men, that My, Fowke mentioned as having definite and powerful influence on the rest of the world, Mr. Fowke said that he had been in Sir Thomas Carlyle's home, and as an illustration of the quiet desired by these great men, Carlyle had a chamber within a chamber, so that he might have ab- solute quiet to concentrate on his theories and his plans for the eleva- tion of mankind. "Lots of men get rich by minding their own business," declared Mr, Fowke. 'The meanest creature in the world was a gossip, a person pry- ing into other people's affairs and letting their own drift." "Every man and woman work until they are sixty years of age," claimed Mr. Fowke, "and if they could, after that." Work was not a punishment but a blessing. But for work, the world would be a mad- house. From the beginning of the world man had to face difficulties, and it had been proved that life was a battlefield, not a playground. The band's rendering of the first two numbers on the program was the best, although they were entirely of different types. The first, the fa- vorite band selection, "Emblem of Peage," was exceptionally well done, and the "In a Monastery Garden" had its usual appeal. Excerpts from "Carmen" and "Les Cloches of Corn- ville" were ambitious but not as uni- formly well executed as the two sel ections mentioned. Mr. M. R. Wall, of the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, gave the beau- tiful "Nocture" of Chopin, Opus 9. He selected as his encore, the "Span. ish Dance," Number 2. He was ac- companied on the piano by Miss D. Symons. Bandsman Woods played two well-known trombone solos, "Rocked in the Cradle of the Deep" and "Somewhere a Voice is Calling." Mrs. Grant Berry, soprano, sang 'God Bless the Morning' and gasc as her encore, the popular, "Roses of Pic- ardy," She was accompanied by Miss McIntyre. The band concluded the program with "Rifle Brigade" and "Rock of Ages." should HINKLER SEEKS CASH Sydney March 11.--A crowd of fifty thousand thronged the aero- drome today and forced Airman Bert Hinkler to climb a film opera- tor's ladder when he reached here from Brisbane on his triumphal journey southward, Hinkler, who has already received many hand- some cheques and the promise of $10,000 from the Covernment, has announced that he will complete the remainder of the tour on a strictly commercial basis, visiting the towns offering the best terms. temperatures have greatly deplet- ad the spow which was piled deeply on streets, sidewalks and lawns. Pools of water and slush are to be found everywhere testfy- ing to a real spring thaw. For the most part local citizens are welcoming the change as it is gen- erally considered that winter has had its innings. WHITBY QUIET IN POLICE CIRCLES OVER WEEKEND Whitby, Mar. 12. -- Whitby residents were all well behaved this week-end according to the local policg who report that the town was free of offences of any kind. As a crime center Oatario county's capital does in no way attempt to rival Chicago, prefer- ring peace and order to the notor- iety afforded by lawlessness. The town's record has always been a good one and few cases under the criminal code have originated here. | back. MUSICAL TREAT GIVEN AT ROTARY Artists from Ontario Ladies' College, Whitby, Delight Club The Rotary Club departed from its usual custom at their luncheon today, and had the priv. ilege of an unusual musical treat, with Miss Helen Johnston, Miss Helen Bunner and Miss Marjory Kisbey on the two pianos was ex- the Whitby Ladies' College. Ro- tarian Frank Johnston, was re- sponsible for the Rotary securing these talented young ladies for the luncheon. Concerto in C min- or by Delius Johnson and Miss Kisbey on the two pianos was e- ceptionally well done, though a most difficult selection. Miss Johnson related briefly the career of the composer before they play- ed it, and said that it might not be appreciated as it followed slightly the modern style. Frederick Del- ius had been the subject of much adverse criticism because he be- longed to no recognized "clique," but Percy Grainger, the great Canadian pianist and composer, had said of him, head and shoulders modern composers," Miss Bunner sang three de- lightful solqs, the first, "Winds in the South" by Scott, and later two shorter songs, "Love's a Mer- chant," and "The Wake-Up Song," which were all well received by the gathering. Miss Kishey play- ed the accompaniment for Miss Bunner, Vacik, a waltz, was giv- en by Miss Johnson as her open- ing number, Rotarian Chester Smith express- ed the appreciation of the club to Frank Johnston, and the young ladies, and said that it had been the finest entertainment that they had ever had at their luncheons. Two new members were formally installed, and introduced to the club, Fred Heather and C. PF. Cannon, who both friefly expressed their pleasure at their election to membership in the club, CURRIE EXAMINED IN LIBEL SUIT Declares No Canadian Sol. dier Fell on Armistice Day Cobourg, March 11,- The cap- ture of Mons --- that achievement | of Canada's battle-worn troops in the dying hours of the world's greatest war--a trinmph to which Canadians have pointed with pride ever since 'Cease Fire" sounded, was investigated here Saturday.

At the outset. and before Mr. Regan had directed his first question to the former Capadian Corps Commander, the press was requested to retire. Later on, the air in the little room hecame some- what close, and it was necessary to open the door for ventilation. Newspapermen waiting in a pear- by office were thereupon asked to move out of earshot. The prelim- inary skirmish in the battle over the capture of Mons was fought in private. Orders Reported Produced However, some facts of a gener- al nature with respect to proceed- ings were given out. For the benefit of counsel, General Currie outlined the military principles governing attacks on towns. He produced maps of those sectors in which Canadian troops were oper- ating during the last days of the war, when the Germans were be- ing hammered back and again The general position of the troops on or about November 11, 1918, was discovered, but ac- tual troop movements were not taken up.

The injured young lady was taken to the hospital, suffering with 'a cut over the leit eve and other injuries, but is progressing favorably and it is expected that she will be discharged from that institution today. This accident occurred at King and Union streets about nine o'clock this morning, R. A. Annis, 372 King street west, was driving his Oakland touring car east on King street when he struck Miss Bennett, who was crossing at Union street. Mr. Annis took her immediately to the office of Dr M. MacDonald, Simcoe street north, and after first aid treatment she was removed to the hospital. She sustained a cut about an inch long over the left eye, be- tween the eyelash and the eyebrow, and this cut had to be closed with stitches. Her right knee was also scraped and bruised, and minor abra- sions occurred about the face. Her condition is favorable, and she will probably be removed to her residence this evening. Annis claims that he blew his horn, and tried to turn down Union street to avoid hitting the young lady, but his car skidded around and she was struck by the rear end of the auto- wohile. Annis' car then crashed into 4 tree, smashing the windshield, running board and fender. In none oi the other three acci- dents was anyone injured, but the cars were damaged mm each case. About seven o'clock Saturday even- ing, at Bond and Ontario streets, cars owned by C. Dewell, 319 Kings- dale avenue, and E. Kutch, 224 Arthur street, collided. Dewell was going west on Bond street, and was turning south onto Ontario street when the accident occurred. I'he two other accidents reported occurred on King street. One of them was at King and Simcoe streets, and happened when Leo Grey, 420 Simcoe street north, was making a left-hand turn north. onto Simcoe street after coming cast on Kini street, The car with which he col- lided was driven by Ernest Simpson, 79 Centre street, who was going west on king street, The left rear fender of Simpson's car and the left front fender and humper of Grey's car were damaged.

To this pre- caution was attributed the escape of all wien the rushing .nass of carth and rocks today crushed nine houses. T.day's avalanche was not as sey- ere as that which took the city by surprise yesterday when in the carly morning it blotted out completely many houses in which whole famil- ies were sleeping. Tonight the authorities said that jt was still impossible to place an ac- curate estimate on the number of dead. They pointed out that so huge was the mass of carth which buried the stricken area that many of the bodies interred would probably never be recovered. The work of excavating the ruins went on without a halt with more than 1," volunteers and public em- ployes engaged in the task. At a late hour today 39 bodies had been recov- ered. The workers were spurred oa by the finding of a few victims who still lived although terribly crushed. The police are maintaining the strici- est supervision of the entire area to prevent further casualties in event of new slides. Beside clearing homes in the vicinity of their inhabitants, en- trance to the district is strictly limi- ted. Many Pitiful Scenes There were many pitiful scenes to- day as scattered families sought to reunite themselves or waited with lit- tle hope for the recovery of the bod- ies of those known to have perished in the disaster. In some cases the en- tire familizs were wiped out under the juggernaut of the ponderously- moving earth. The hospital of Santa Rosa, which was one of the buildings greatly dam- aged in the slide yesterday, was one of the show places of the city. Most of the patients fortunately escaped injury and have been removed to other institutions. The Santa Rosa is believed to be beyond repair. JEWELRY STOLEN FROM CONANT ST. RESIDENCE: 35 CENTS IN ANOTH Thieves Enter Homes of G. S. Thompson in Cedardale and John Shemilt, 20 Young Street -- Gold Watch, Engagement Ring and a Pair of Gloves Taken from Thompson Home Two burglaries on Sunday was the way in which Oshawa welcom- ed a new week. In one house, that of G. S. Thompson, 113 Conant street, some jewery was stolen, and in the residence of John Shemilt, 20 Young street, the burglars took time to eat a large cake, and stole besides, a small amount of money and a jacknife. While the value of the goods ob-| tained in these two hauls was not large, it suggests the possibiity of a recurrence of the breaking and entering epidemic which visited this city during the fall and win- ter. No houses of the city have been burglarized for some weeks, since some of the guilty parties were brought to justice by the city police force; but the thieves have evidently been lying low and con- sider the time ripe for another onut- break, as two robberies in one day would indicate. The first offence was committed at the home of Mr. Thompson, Co- nant street, which was broken into some time: during Sunday, police say. Here a lady's gold watch with four hars and a radiolight dial was stolen, as well as an engagement ring set with five white sapphires and a pair of brown kid gloves. The theft was reported to the po- lice at 5:30 o'clock Sunday after- noon, Later in the day, between 6:20 o'clock, while Mr, and Mrs. Shem- ilt, Young street, were at church service, thieves entered their home and ransacked it from top to hot- tom. Every room in the house was entered and goods strewn over the foor and generally deranged, in the search for money, Fortunately Mr. Shemilt left little money in the house, so all the wads 35 cents in silver, But they spied a cake which Mrs, Shemiz had baked for her family, and which was reposing in the cahin- et. This they took into the kitch- en, beside the electric stove, and there stood and devoured it. Noth- ing remained but the crumbs, so, as Mr. Shemilt sagely remarks, the burglars must have heen hungry. They picked up a jacknife of Mr. Shemilt's, walked out tho front door, which Joeked hehind them. and disappeared--at least tempor- arily, Police are working on these cas: es, and while they do not speak out of turn, seem to he confident that they have at least some hope of catching the criminals. Foot- steps were found by the officers about the cellar window hy which the thieves gained entrance to the Shemilt home, and leading also to the house next door. This house was not touched last night, how- ever. TORONTO MEN ARE ARRESTED IN 11S, (Continued from page 1) ice and Ira under the name of H. L. Genice. The Janis brothers, whose real name is said to be Janowski, oper- ated in Toronto for about 10 months, and at the same time had offices in Windsor, London, Montreal and Winnipeg. Upon information receiv- ed by the Attorney-General's depart- ment, their offices on Adelaide Street here were raided by Provincial police, but the men had already gathered in, and certain securities which they had put up as collateral also fell into the hands of the police. _ The firm appears to have special ized in Dominion Land stock, selling 300,000 to 500,000 shares. They would sell a good class of gold stock on margin, and then dispose of some Dominion Land to their clients as an outright sale. Dominion Land is said to have "not even a hole in the ground" back of it. : As to the amount obtained from Ontario clients, the authorities here have no reliable estimate, and are inclined to think that the $750,000 mentioned jn the Atlantic City dis- patch is very much of a guess, Nevertheless, the sum obtained over a period of 10 months, with five offices in operation, would bc sub- stantial, Extradition proceedings will be opened without delay, as si to this end were taken imme ately after the Janis brothérs took their departure from Toronto. -- Toronto, Ont., Mar, 12--~The Oa- tario Attorney General's department is procee ding with preparations for procuring extrradition of the Janis brothers, Ira and Milton, arrested in Atlantic City on charges of fraudu- lent stock transactions in Ontario in- volving half a million dollars, it was stated today by A. Rogers, legal sec- retary. Mr. Rogers pointed out that some time woul ' elapse before formalities were completed as it would be an in- tricate and difficult task to build up the case against the accused, owing to ramifications of their stock selling activitics. , thieves secured | i YOUTH IS MISSING FRON HIS HOME AT LAKEVIEW GARDENS Harry Wood, 15, Has Not Been Seen for Nearly Two Weeks POLICE NOTIFIED Three Liquor Cases Constis tute Docket in Police Court Today Harry Wood, 15, Lakeview Gare dens, is missing.
