Besides an ex- tensive export business, their manu- factured products . supply large de- mands from Canada alone, the latter trade reaching to more than $45,000 annually. The Canada Slicer Company is situated on Church street and occu- pies the premises formerly used as the Congregational Church.

Although a considerable business has been carried on in slicer manu- facturing, the firm is now branch- ing out again into the making of scales. A number of years ago this was also a line of the present firm but the interest was sold out to Tor- onto Computing Scale Company, of Paris, which concern has since gone out of business, Heading the Canada Slicer Com- pany at the present time are, pre« sident, the Mayor, T. S. Holgate, who took the place left vacant at son, secretary-treasurer and F. C. Colmer ,superintendent. The busi- ness has been in active operation since 1918, Besides the United States, which consumes a large portion of the exported manufactured products of the Canada Slicer Co, England, Ar- gentine, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, China and Japan, receive regular shipments from the factory in Bowmanville. These products are the genuine Redbird Slicers and the Dominion Scales. It is estimated that the export trade alone is equal to the Dominion business sand generally averages around $45,000, thus making business for this prosperous firm amount to home $90,000 per year. Although previously there.had not been made much mention ness connections of the Canada Sli- cer Company, it is a real asseo [0 town in that it helps to bring up the standard set for the class of manu- factured products in Bowmanville, If women are foolish it is be- cause they were made to be the companions of men.--Chicago Daily News. -- the death of his father, W.

Nellles by Walter Marjoram, Bowmanville, for the loss of §1 rabbits which the lat- ter claimed had been killed by the former's dogs, was dismissed by Judge O'Connor of Cobourg in Division Court here today. Marjoram claimed that tw large dogs belonging to Nall of run March 18 were in the habit loose, and that on they broke through a wire fence and killed and partially devoured 31 rabbits which he was in the act of raising. They were valu- ed at approximately $50, it was before stated. The dogs weré identified by the exceedingly large footprints, which were like a St. Bernard's. "= In throwing out the syit, Judge O'Connor stated that this case was a unique example of the law for dealing with instances of this kind. The law as cited reads: "Liabil- ity attaches to the defendant if he, knowing the mischievous ten- dencies of his dogs, neglects to prevent such tendencies from causing damages to the plaintiff." As was stated, Mr. Nelles was not aware that his animals were running "wild" in the community, and therefore, was released from paying the plaintiff's damages. W. F. Ward acted for the plain- tife.

NEW RECORD FOR NEW YORK MART The Volume o of Trading, 4,902,300 Shares, Sets a ; High Mark New York, May 16--The volume of trading, 4,902,300 shares, on the New York Stock "Exchange, today broke all records. Most of this huge vol- ume was piled up in the afternoon. 4 rading gin the final hour exceeded 1,500,000 shares, a new hourly record. This avalanche of stock transac- tions, which caused the ticker to run more than 58 minutes behind the market and grind out the final quo- tation 'one hour and nineteen minu- tes after the gong rang on the floor, followed reports that the Federal Reserve Bank of New York might raise its rediscount rate tomorrow, Bears received help from rumor mongers, who insisted that the Re- serve Bank would raise its rate by one per cent, an unprecedented act, to five per cent, and the jump in time money to five and a quarter per cent., the highest price since October 1926. Curtiss "and Wright Aero shares, breaking af 433 and 21 points res- pectively, started the break, which spread to many sections of the list. Brokers were so swamped with busi- ness that even the best managed of- fices petitioned for a Saturday holi- day to catch up with clerical work. The fifth extra holiday for this year --next Saturday--was granted by ggovernors of the exchange, WHITBY Representative--]AMES HOLDEN Phone, House 15---Office 434 Private Probe to be Held in Fire Truck Accident Crown Attorney J.

McGibbon plans to hold a pri- vate investigation into the circum- stances * surrounding the accident which occurred one mile west of here when the motor pumper of the local fire brigade, on 'answering a call to a burning truck on the Kingston highway last Monday night, ran into a crowd of spectators, as it turned into the sidg road just west of the scene of the fire, seriously injuring two men and causing injuries to three others. Charles Lavery was driving the fire truck at the time, which was under the charge of Fire Chief Smith. It is also understood that the town council is endeavoring to secure cor- rect details of the accident, and the question has been raised locally whe- ther or not the corporation would be liable for damages in event of suit by one or more of the injured parties, OBSERVE CLEANUP DAYS IN WHITBY Town Employing Wagons and Teams to Take Rubbish Away (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, Nir 17.~Cleanup days are now being observed locally and the town is employing wagons and teams to gather up rubbish and use- las articles set out on the streets by citizens, to be carried away and dumped in some convenient place where it will not be offensive. to sight or smell, As one one passes, up and down the various streets a great variety of articles is seen, One pile of rubbish may be topped by father's straw hat of last year while nearby mother's spring bonnet, considered stylish. in 1925 and outlandish in 1928, may be reposed. Tin cans, of course, are much in evidence, while practically everything may be found from worn out shces to hardware, the latter in- cluding discarded children's toys, old automobile parts and radio equip- ment. If the man of the houses mis- ses his favorite pipe he would be well advised to search the Yubbish heap set cut by his family before it is loaded. onto a wagon in company with the conglomeration from similar rubbish heaps and deposited in the civic dump. For ought he knows it might contain his old companion, Small boys viewing the articles for disposal are likely to see many trea- sures, included among them such as old batteries and inner tubes oi tires. They feel at perfect liberty to salvage these things and by the time they 'bring their finds home the fam- ily store of worthless articles will possibly be as great as before the cleanup days. But undoubtedly the system of rubbish disposal adopted during the spring cleanup proves a great help to the individual householder, as it saves him the trouble of carting junk away on his own hook. Then again, the town supervises the disposal s0 that one dumping ground is utilized, whereas otherwise a number of va- cant lots might be employed in vari- ous sections causing them to become eyesores and detrimental to sur- rounding property, If you want the very best, ask for Red Rose Orange Pekoe In clean, bright Aluminum ee -- REPAIRING WATCHES OUR SPECIALTY If your Watch is not giving satisfaction we can repair and make it tell the correct time D.
