THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, APRIL 7, 1928 -- PAGE THREE Twenty Arrests Made as Police Raid Gaming House Good Friday a Day of Travel; Highway Carries Steady Flow of Traffic SAYS UNION HAS 4,000 MEMBERS No Announcement Yet as | G. M. Member of the Conciliation Board George Lemme, secretary of the General Motors Employees' Uniop, declares that 4,000 applications for membership in the union have now been taken out by the men and that 8.500 of these have been returned signed, leaving only 500 mow out- standing. There are estimated to be about 4,500 men working in the factories, he says, and only 500 of these have not applied for appli- cations. Mr. Lemme received a letter from Ottawa, last week, in which the government stated that they had as yet received mo intimation of the General Motors representa- tive to the Board of Conciliation having been appointed. At the meeting of the men's ex- ecutive Thursday evening, further reorganization work was complet- ed, and arrangements made to pro- cure the charter for a unlon, The last chapter in the history of the strike should soon he writ- ten, and many and manifold ru- mors have emanated from this city in regard to the ultimate settlement of the strike, since the men return- ed to work. The management of the General Motors have not di- vulged their intentions, even to let ft be known the date of the ap- pointment ;of their representative. Speculation has been rife eon- cerning the appointment of a im- partial chairman, but no mention has yet heen made of the probable appointee. SUNDAY SERVICES AT CALVARY BAPTIST The Sunday afternoon meetings conducted hy Calvary Baptist Church, Athol Street west, will he continued tomorrow, Rev. Glenn Wardell, Pastor of Scarboro Bap- tist Church, Toronto, being the spe- cial speaker. There will also be some special musical numbers, The afternoon service is at 3:30. Rev, Mr. Dickie, the acting pas: tor of the local Church, will preach special Easter sermons morning and evening. The work is growing in a very encouraging manner. SPECIAL SERVICES AT EMANUEL BAPTIST CHURCH ON SUNDAY The celebration of Easter this year will he fittingly marked by the reopening of the newly decor- ated' Baptist Church. While the work will not be entirely finished, those in charge have done their best to have it as nearly complete as possible for Easter Sunday and the alterations thus far show prom- ise of much satisfaction as regards appearance and added convenience. The walls have been done in an artistic cream tone with contrast- ing monldings and provision made for the mse of lantern pictures without the necessity of a sheet and upsightly ropes and etceteras. The woodwork has been refinished to mateh up with the pews and a hoys' class room has been built in at one end of the gallery in such a way as to balance the interior of the build- ing which always left much to be desired in that particular. Such details as hangings and other platform arrangements will not be ready for the reopening but decorations of Easter flowers are being placed in the church by sev- era] of the young people, Mrs. Jack James, Beulah Galt and Kathleen McKay being in charge of this form of service. The Baptist people are to be congratulated upon the commend- able start they have made in reno- vating their property, Plans are under way for commencing work on the exterior in the coming weex. Meanwhile there are many actiyi- ties scheduled for the members and friends of the congregation, 'On Monday evening the usual meeting of the Young People's So- ciety will take the form of an Eas- ter program in the hands of Miss Ada Letson and her group. On Tuesday evening the Young Women's Mission (Circle present Mrs. Wintemute, of Bolivia, in 2n address on South America. She will have with her a little native girl, "Martita" whom she adopted and is bringing as a special treat to Oshawa. : A congregational supper will be served on Wednesday evening at six-thirty when it is hoped that everyone who worships with Im- manuel Baptist Church will com- sider. themselves personally invit- ed and be on hand. This very full week will close with a sacred Cantata by the hoir on Friday next at which an fferinz will be received towards he funds of tae choir. Jf the at- tendance is as gratifying this year as it was the Jast time such a con- vert was given, the choir will feel more than repaid for any effort they have made in preparing the music. TBuses and Traine Crowded With Holiday Travellers --City Flocks to Country and Country te City-- Endless Line of Cars Seen on King Street All Day Ideal spring weather made Good Friday a day of travel to many who crowded the highways with motor cars, packed buses to the doors, or jammed railway coaches of trains which speed over on the province's network of rails. People from the larger cities poured forth to spend their holiday or even week-end with parents or friends in the country or small rural ham- lets which dot southern Ontario Those from the country flocked into the cities, some for a like pur- pose, others simply pleasure bound. Thus the great exchange of urban and rural population went on, swelling highway and railway traf- fic and bringing friends and rela- tives in glad contact with each other, Locally, the heavy highway traf- fice was most impressive for one had but to take a short stroll an King street, the city's main artery, to realize the number of cars which were traveling east and west on the Kingston road, yesterday, Tak- ing the corner of King and Simcoe streets as a vantage point one had ample opportunity to inspect the vehicles which were hurrying the multitude on its way. Cars there were of practically all shapes and sizes ranging from ancient *'chug- gers' to smooth running, handsome sedans of the present year, A num- ber of the machines seen were ap- parently brand new produets, from the great General Motors of Can- ada plant, in transit from factory to owner or dealer, whatever the case might be. 'Almost every car contained its quota of holiday seek- ers while the vast majority bore the 1928 Ontario license number, the season not yet being far enough advanced to lure American tourists across the horder. The advantage of the stop-and- go system was quite evident at this busy corner, the throbbing heart of a growing city. Without it a hopeless tie-up might have result- ed at this point yesterday. As it was, the stream of vehicles up and down King street came in such constant succession that ears could hardly break into it from side streets where stop signs were the sole controlling factor, Another indication of the large number who took advantage of the holiday was the activity of the bus lines in and out of Oshawa, Spee- fal huses had to he operated he- tween here and Toronto to cope with the situation and each bus was laden with 'passengers and baggage. Good Friday comes hnt once a year and happily for 1928 it came with fair weather and gun- shine enticing men and women to make good use of it, New Memorial Organ at All Saints' to Be Ready Easter Sunday (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, April 7.--The new two- manuel 'memorial organ being in- stalled in All © Saints' Anglican church here will be ready for use in the Easter Sunday morning ser- vicee although the dedication will not take place until later. C. F. Legge, head of the C. Frances Legee Co., manufacturers of the organ, has been present during the past few days supervising the fin- al arrangements in connection with its installation. At some future date it is expected that Mr. Legge, who is an accomplished musician himself, will give a recital in the church. WILSON-RUDD A quiet wedding was solemn- ed yesterday in Guelph when Elizabeth Rudd, of Oshawa, was united in marriage to John Me- Arthur Wilson, also of Oshawa, the Rev. S. Buchanan Carey offic- ating. The bride wore a becoming frock of beige georgettte with corsage of pansies and violets. Mrs. Delbert Zufelt attended the bride.Following the ceermony at the parsonage a reception was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. D. W. Zufelt, Guelph. Mr. and Mrs. Wilson left on an extended motor tour. After their honey- moon they will make their home at 339 Simcoe street south, Osha- wa. = -- FULTON--CORDEAU A quiet pre-Easter wedding took place last evening in the Christian church parsonage, when Rey. Dr. W. 8. Fletcher united in mar- riage Mr, Thomas Multon and Miss Eva Cordeau. The former was born in Ireland and the latter im the British West Indies, but in the romance of the years they each sought Oshawa as a life op- portunity. They will now unite to create another Oshawa home, and we bid them welcome to our city of homes. (ARE CONDUCTING LUTHERAN CHURCH SERVICES HERE Holding Meetings for First Time in the History of the City Perhaps for the first time in the history of Oshawa, services are be- ing conducted here by a branch of the Lutheran church. And not only has there been a demand for Lu- theran services, but the number of those professing the Lutheran faith will greatly exceed expectations, if the canvas thus far of but a small section of the city serves as a reas- onably reliable index. It has been intimated that in the near future there ought to be an attendance of from forty to fifty. But the Lu- theran church is also and pe-emi- nently a missionary institution, and will try to gather in many of those who are without any church con- nection "whatever. What does the Evangelical Ln- theran Church stand for? Luther- ans teach and believe that the Bi- ble, the Old and the New Testa- ment, is in every part the inspired Word of God, who is the author of the words as well as the thoughts of Scripture. No person of ordi- nary intelligence and unprejudiced mind can fail to understand its teachings, which will have all who trustfully aceept them. The Bible, as the revelation of God, is un- alterable and complete, requiring no human interpretation, and per- mitting no addition to its teachings from any source whatsoever. Its author, God, is one divine esse es in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. In the beginning He created man an intelligent and moral being consisting of hody and soul, Hence man is hy no means the product of evolutionary devel- opment. While man was originally created holy and innocent, in his present fallen estate he is entirely depraved, and enslaved in the ser- vice of sin. But sin is a transgres- sion of the divine law, and by rea- son of the guilt that attaches to sin man is subject to death and eternal damnation. Since man could not save himself, God, in His infinite mercy, resolved to save mankind and sent His Son as the Redeemer, who appeared in Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Mary and the Son of God, and hy His perfect obedience to God's commandments and hy His all-sufficient suffering and death on the eross for the sake and in the stead of sinful mankind wrought righteousness and salva- tion for the whole world. Whoever penitently accepts Jesus as his one and only Savior is justiled in the sight of God and made an heir of salvation. The Lutheran Church, being found in every land, is truly inter- national. "The Lutherans of the United States and Canada have 16,406 churches; 10,799 ministers; 2,622,664 communicants, and con- stitute the third largest Protestant Church on the North American con- tinent. There are more than 60, 000,000 enrolled Lutherans in Eu- rope; 5,000,000 in North America; 500,000 in Asia; 400,000 in Africa; 3,00,000 in Oceanica. In other words, Lutheranism represents about 47 per cent of Protestantism, 14 per cent of Christendom, and five per cent of the world popula- tion. It comprises the largest con- fessional body in pon-Roman Evan- gelical Christendom." KING STREET W.M.S. EASTER MEETING A very well attended Easter meeting of the W.M.S. of King street United Church was held Thursday afternoon in the school room with the President, Mrs. Crozier in the chair. Various re- ports of different Officers were given while several new members were welcomed. Jt was announe- ed that a Guest tea would be held April 21th and each group had the privilege of inviting twenty ladies as visitors. Prayer was offered by Mrs. Smith after which the chair was taken by Mrs. Bell. Responsive Seripture lesson was led by the Chairman, after which Miss Irene Winter gave a very pleasing solo. Mrs. R. O. Fair presented the Easter mes- sage, showing bow it was just as imperative today to obey Christ's command "Go and tell," as it was to Mary at the tomb. Miss Mari- on Gummow gave a very bright instrumental while Miss Harris told the story of Whistling Davie in a very forceful manner. Dainty refreshments were served at the close. UNIVERSITY ACE PITCHES GIANTS TO WIN FROM SENATORS Norfolk, April 6.--The Giants may have the Wilcey Moore of 1928 in "Tiny" Chaplin, The former pitch- ing ace of the Florida University was turned loose against the Senators be- fore a big crowd here today and proced he was entitled to a regular job on John McGraw's team by beating Washington 10 to 2. [Inci- dentally, it was the thirteenth straight victory for the Giants, The powerful New York machine fun- ctioned like a real championship ball club and won in a walk. The New York players continued their terrific hitting and pounded Bob Burk, a southpaw ; Sad Samuel Jones and Ed Wells, another lefthander, for an ey- en dozen blows. INDUSTRIAL HOCKEY LEAGUE TROPHY HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY HOLDS ANNUAL MEETING Year's Work is Reviewed-- Election of Officers is Deferred (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, April 7.--At the annual meeting of Whitby Horticultural Society held on Thursday evening in the Council Chamber the work i of the past year was reviewed by THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES vp Donated to the City Industri Hockey league, the champion- ship of which was won by Sim- coes. ~--DPhoto by Campbell Mimico Beach by 3 to 0 Defeats Oshawa Eleven Mimico Beach defeated the Osh- awa City Football Club, 3-0, in an exhibition fixture, at Alexaunara Park yesterday afternoon, in a game played under the worst pos- sible conditions. The field was what is generally described as a sea of mud" and the players found the going in racing parlance, "heavy." The score at the end of the first half- was 2-0, and the Beachers from Toronto suburbs added an- other in the last half. Last year's champions did not show the form that they will be expected to de- monstrate later in the season. The entire game was given aver to the trial of new players, and some like- ly looking prospects were discov- ered. Oshawa City have every con- fidence that they will hold the T. and D. Trophy two years in sue- cession, In the morning the G.M.C. team tried out the field at Alexandra Park in their first outdoor practice of the year, hut owing to the un- favorable conditions did not stay as long as they intended. They have many of last year's players out, and a fine crop of players who last year disported In foreign fields. FORMING ANGLING CLUB IN OSHAWA Editor The Oshawa Daily Times, Dear Sir: The purpose of this letter is to draw your attention to the fact that we are organizing an angling association in Oshawa, to help out our fishermen friends .in Toronto, Hamilton and Orillia, also to help bring to the attention of the Gov- ernment of Ontario, the deplorable state of affairs of out fishipg in Ontario today. Can anybody tell me where there is consistently good fishing in old- er Ontario? Not so many years ago we did not have to go very far away from this city, to get first rate fishing, but where has -it gone? We have to go farther a- field every year, to get within reach of a fair sized bass or trout. Of course we could go to Rice Lake or Lake Scugog and get fair catches, but they are also going to the dogs fast and furious. Personally I do not think that the fish is everything in fishing, but we like to bring home one or two. The reasons for the scarcity of fish, are that first, I do pot think that the fish and game laws are strict enough. Take our own Rice Lake just east of the city. Reports come to us that tons of fish are being caught through the ice. Of course they are all pick- erel, which is a commercial fish. Well the sooner we make this fish 2 game fish, the better, because if things are allowed to drift along longer, the pickerel will be the only fish left. I wonder how many of these so- called fishermen put the Junge back into the water, or the bass they are liable to get on their book. I am willing to gamble that not many are put back. Then take the spring spearing of fish. What do we know of the untold numbers that are taken in our lakes. * Also in the city, large numbers of the pike go up the creeks to spawn. I wonder how many fishermen pass up a pike within reach of his spear. No, they are speared and shot and netted--uno wonder our fishing is disappearing. They will certainly . repay yom later on in the season, with a bit of fine sport, if they hit your spoon, or plug or live minnow. Think of the prospective number of fish you are killing, when you spear a pike or a lunge, or tak: a bass off its spawning bed. Also I would think that there is a lot more fun in catching your fish on rod and line, in the proper seasom, than sticking a spear in him, or getting him tangled up in a net. Yours for better sportsmanship, the secertary, W. G. Augustus, in the absence of President W. E, Rice, while some beautiful lan- tern slides, secured from the De- partment of Agriculture at Otta- wa showing the value of trees, shrubs and vine in home beautifi- cation were thrown on the screen, The Secretary read a written de- scription of each slide and the pictures, beautifully colored, were both interesting and educational, The attendance was not large, owing to the meeting being held the night before a holiday, and on this account the election of offic- ers was deferred until a later date, The report of the secertary showed a membership of 62; re- ceipts of $221.13 and expenditures of $213.63, leaving a balance on the right side of the ledger of $7.60. The Society during the year spent $77 on civic improvements, the bulk of this money being spent on the war memorial plot on Dun- das Street Kast, said by visitors to be one of the prettiest along the highway, At the adjourned meeting to he held shortly plans for the year's work will be laid, ARE REMODELLING UNDERWOOD BLOCK Is Being Converted Into a First Class Automobile Show Room (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, April 7.--Another im- provement is being made to the town's business section at the Un- derwood building, west Dundas street, which is being remodelled into a first class automobile show room by the Reid-Nash Motor Sales Co, It is the intention of Mr. Rob- ert, who has purchased the build- ing, to make the offices formerly occupied by W. H. Kennedy, into the show room proper, with an im- posing glass front on Dundas street. Extending forty feet back from the present structure a garage will be built with a storage space of 1000 square feet. The garage will have connection on Byron street through a driveway. R. J. Underwood has the contract and work has already been commenced. USE OF STEEL LOG IMPROVING STREETS IS GETTING RESULTS (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, April 5.--The steel log is proving successful in alleviating the muddy condition of the streets for where it has been used a great improvement is noted. The log it- self is very simple consisting of two parallel steel bars joined with a platform. Pulled by a powerful team of horses with the bars at right angles to the road the ma- chine has a tendency to level the mud ruts thus allowing the water to drain off more freely from the street. Originally two sections of a split log were used accounting for its name. RECEIVE 18 MEMBERS AT ST. ANDREW'S CHURCH IN WHITBY (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, April 7.--Eighteen mem- bers including three new families were admitted into St. Andrew's Presbyterian church at the Good Friday preparatory service held last night, The pastor, Rev. John Lind- say, conducted the service and preached a very suitable sermon, his subject being " 'Follow Me' frank instruction to Peter." Holy Com- munion will be administered at the morning service LOMOrrow. LABOR COUNCIL CONGRATULATES THE OSHAWA WORKERS The District Trades and Labor Council at a meeting last night, through John Colbert, ex-president of the London, Ont, Trades Coun- cil, passed a resolution, congratulat- ing the automobile workers in Osh- awa on their formation of the first unien in the automobile industry. Rumbles of further trouble in the District Trades and Labor Council were hearrd, when Delegate R. Cox, George Robertshaw, filed notice of a motion which should LABOUR MINISTER PRAISES TIMES Says Ediotriala and Articles| During Strike Helped Conciliation Nothing brings so much pleasure and satisfaction to a newspaper editor as to find that the paper has been of some service --how- ever small--to the community in which it is published. In the strike situation of last week--it seems longer ago than that--many agencies were at work trying to bring about a settlement and all helped as best they could in their own way. It is a real pleasure to know that in the opin- ion of Hon. Peter Heenan, Minister of Labour, this newspaper had a small share in promoting that san- ity of thought and moderation of action so necessary at all times, and particularly when the temper- ature rises as it does during a la- bour dispute. Mr, Heenan's letter follows: Ottawa, April 4, A. R, Alloway, Esq., Editor, Oshawa Daily Times, Oshawa, Ontario. Dear Mr. Alloway: I have before me your letter of the 31st of March addressed to Mr. M. 8S, Campbell, Chief Conciliation Officer, also copies of your issues of the 30th and 31st ultimo. May I say that I am greatly pleased with the tone of your let- ter throughout and was also pleased with the attitude of your paper during the Oshawa trouble, Your editorials were particularly outstanding and, together with your "Let's Get Together" articles, were very valuable in bringing about a proper spirit of conciliation which was essential to a satisfac- tory adjustment of the dispute. Yours very truly, (Sign'd.) Peter Heenan Minister of Labour, GRAMMARSLIPS FINE FEATURE Corrected Letter Publiished Herewith--Try and Find Mistakes Daily Here are the corrected letters from Fred to Bill in the "Grammar- slips' commenced in The Oshawa Daily Times on Thursday.

In Police court this morn- ing, McKenna was. fined $18 and costs, and severely reprimanded hy Police Magistrate Hind. Crown At- torney MeGibbon recommended that a fine be imposed although the offense made McKenna liable to a long term of imprisonment. Mag- istrate Hind warned McKenna that if he ever appeared in court before him again, a year's imprisonment would be the least sentence impos- ed. McKenna declared that it was his last venture along that line. Nineteen men, apprehended and charged with being "found in' and gambling in McKenna's apartment, were fined $10 and costs this morn- ing by the magistrate. All the gam- bling devices were confiscated hy the police. The following men paid fines this morning: HH. Williams, R. Purdy, W. Haines, G. Jones, P. Duncan, C, Matthew, R. Achman, G Jacobi, 8.

Archdeacon Warren, Toronto, Delivers Inspiring Sermon on the Crucifixion At the 11 o'clock service on Good Friday morning, in St. George's Church, Ven. Archdeacon Warren, of Toronto, gave a sym- bolic Easter message, and his con- ception of the meaning and purposa of the Crucifixion. The Crucifixion trancends the imagination of the theologian, the poet, the writer, or the scientist, declared Archdeacon Warren, The fact that Christ lives more strong- ly in the imagination of men, af- ter 1900 years, attests that fact, It is His death that we today are commemorating. Christians had ever tried to grasp the full significance of the Cross, and it was not for us to accept just what others have bes lieved to he the true interpreta tion of Christ's sacrifice. We should endeavor to discover, to study for ourselves the motives for the deliberate acceptance of Jesus of his fate. We should leok to God, get something of the Divine Spirit that we might better under stand the meaning of the Cruci- fixion. "Our Saviour deliberately and considerately,"" said Archdeacon Warren, "undertook to bear the burden of the Cross." It was pot a hasty or unpremeditated action. He foresaw what was coming, and did not try to escape it. It had heen . said that Jesus Christ was a rigld adherent to the precepts of the Jewish Church, stated Archdeacon Warren, As a matter of fact little was known about the religious observances of Jesus. He was In fact in perpetual conflict with the conventions and the convictions of His time. He was regarded as an outcast hy members of His synagogue. Jesus considered that more pre- cious than life, was the need of new hope for mankind, and alle- viation of the terrible conditions prevailing in his day. The degra- tion of the poor, the misery of the sick, the hopelessness of the op- pressed were the first considera- tions of the Lord. He wished to give man a new soul, and a new light, He wished to bring new hope, to open new avenues to the world. Unless the Death and work of Jesus makes you think and work, then it means nothing to you, de- clared the Archdeacon. It was a great task for the world, to live for the rest of humanity. and to work until Jove and righteousness should prevail, MARRIED ARMSTRONG--MacQUEEN' -- In Toronto, on Wednesday, April 4th, 1928, by Rey, E.
