THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1928 Christmas Cheer Fund Needs Generous Support of Al Santa Claus' CITY NEWS | Airplane Navigates Milky Way, Then Sticks in the Mud Santa Claus came near being badly hurt as his airplane got stuck in the mud when it landed outside the city at 10 o'clock this morning, after successfully navigating the "milky way" enroute from the North Pole, But he didn't forget his little people in Oshawa, and as soon as he could get an automobile, he rushed to the airport where he told the many youngsters waiting there about his flight from, the North Pole, Royal Greeting standing in his open automobile, the good old Christmas Saint look- ed just like he has looked for hundreds of years; red suit, long white whiskers and cardinal cap with a tassel on top. Although the kiddies could not see his boots, they were heavy and black with tops to the knées, and showed signs of having being in some mud a little while before, But his harrowing experience didn't dampen Santa's spirits and during the ride down town, he spent most of his time throwing out all-day suckers to the hundreds of children who thronged the streets to see Santa for the first time this year, : Many little folk had letters ready for good old Father Christ- mas, and the old man took each one, putting it away where he would find it when he was alone, so that he might give to each little boy and girl the toys he wants, Extensive Equipage Travelling from the Airport with Santa Claus was his 'aide de camp" which consisted of a clown, who walked in front of the parade carrying a big placard on which was printed "Santa Claub visits Oshawa," Then there was a liver- ed driver of Santa's car, Two real Scotch pipers preceded the auto, and played many of the well-known children's pieces, And there was not anything that Santa forgot to bring, That great big red bag, just filled to the brim with toys was sitting on the seat beside the jovial fellow, From this the little man took candies and favors and distributed them to the hundreds of little people who thronged about his car, At the Four Corners At the Four Corners even 4a greater crowd awaited him, Chila- ren of every age with their parents and other grown-ups were filled with a secret joy as the automobile containing the little "red" man hove in sight, Traffic at the main intersection was halted, and to maintain law and order a big Burly policeman was stationed in the center of the Corners, Such cheering as went on will not be forgotten for many months, Santa's round face beamed approval on the thousands, yes thousands of little heads, below him, and long before he was ready to depart had his bag become exhausted of its contents, The Parade The parade extended from the Airport to Mill street, from Mill to Simcoe street south, and south on Simcoe to King street, where the Patron Saint delivered an address of welcome, "I want a doll; please--give me a rocking horse, Santa--don't for- get my train, Santa"--All these and many more exclamations were shouted to the old man as he stood up to let all the children see him, And even then there were some who were not tall enough to catch a glimpse of Santa Claus, so that little brothers and sisters had to pick them up, so that they wouldn't bave to go home and tell Mother that they "didn't even see him," Tours the Children Every year Santa comes to see his children, for Santa, although he likes the grown-ups, considers the children belong to him, It is a visit that he pays to the city before that enchanting night, Christmas Eve, For Santa likes to make this second visit in all secrecy, and hardly ever does not catch him in his call on that pight. This night he brings reindeer, and these little animals are so quick on their feet, STORE FRONTS WILL BE INSTALLED HOTEL PROPERTY Several Sub-contracts Award ed on Alterations to Com mercial Hotel Several sub-contracts have been awarded on the alterations to the Commercial Hotel, which are in the hands of R. Hill, general contrac- tor, C. B. DeGuerre is the electric- al contractor, W. R. Brown is handling plumbing, W. Short is doing the brickwork, and H, Sut- cltfe will. do the plastering, The roofing contract, which includes re-roofing the entire hotel in a Spanish red tile roof, has not yet been let. Extended The building is being. extended out to the street line, a distance of six feet, and two new stores are being installed, a small one on the west side of the present entrance and a larger one on the east side. The extension will also give an en- larged space in the dining room, and the lobby is being remodelled with an arch entrance. The ceilings downstairs are to be fireproofed, Store Fronts Copper store fronts, with plate glass, will be installed, while the front of the building will be fin- ished in stucco and desert blen tile, 5. McTaggart is manager of the otel, HANG WALLPAPER ON SIXTH FLOOR GENOSHA HOTEL Interior Trim Work and Plas. tering Nearing Completion-- Install Room Telephones Wallpaper is being hung on the sixth floor of the Genosha Hotel. The previous decision of the general contractors, the J, W. Butler com- pany, to paint the rooms, has been altered and the bedrooms will all be papered. A different wallpaper design will be used on each of the five floors, from the second to the sixth, Painting of the ceilings on the sixth floor, which are being done in ivory, is practically completed, Three men with paint spray guns, opera- ted by compressed air, are doing this work, and each man with the ma- chine does the work of almost a dozen hand painters. They have al- ready started work on the fifth floor and are keeping well ahead of the wallpaper hangers, The carpenters, who have been doing much overtime work, will practically finish interior trim work on the building tonight, and Mon- day will start hanging doors on the upper floors, Carpet strip, on which carpet will be tacked, is be- ing laid on the fifth floor, The plasterers have about completed the lobby, and the ornamental plaster work in this room, which is in good view from the large windows facing King street, is one of the most beau- tiful plastering jobs in the city, The plastering contractors are practically finished their work, but have yet to finish plastering the dining room, The installation of room telephones has begun on the second floor, The passenger elevator has been com- pleted with the steel cage, which is finished in walnut and bronze, The ice machine will be placed in oper- ation Monday, when it will be tested by the manufacture of 1,000 pounds or so of ice, A man in Montreal was charged the other day with non- support, His defense was simple and ample: "I am a bachelor," -- Owen Sound Sun-Times, that one only gets a chance to hear the bells or the stamping of their feet as the sleigh pulls on to the house-top. Thoughts of Christmas And so this occasion today was for the children, Children's faces lighted up when Santa came, and the thought of Christmas pudding, turkey, toys, Christmas trees, open fire-places will linger until the wonderful holiday arrives, MASS MEETING!

Ready For Snowshoe Staking Scores of prospectors, fully equipped for snowshoe staking and winter hardships, are now cluster- ed around Sioux Lookout, Hudson and other points on the Canadian National Railways, awaiting the "rush" that will begin with the freezing up of the best situated water route approaches. Officials of the Department of Mines admitted yesterday that fso- lated gold discoveries during the past year and a half at Red Lake, Woman Lake. Narrow Lake, Gold Lake, Cat River, Crow River, Pickle Lake and Fort Hope now appear to be' linked with one great chain of gold bearing rocks, Re- ports of geologists tend to sia port this presumption. While fur- ther investigation will have to he made before the existence of this hand is clearly demonstrated, the implication right now--in = the words of Thopras W. Gibson, De- puty Minister, "is pretty strong." "Very Rich" Samples of ore brought down to Queen's Park from these eight fso- lated discoveries have already heen pronounced by mineralogists as "very rich in gold." Department officials have no 'dea how far this suspected belt may extend. Easterly, it may run clear over into Ungava, where Es- kimos, during summer past, are reported to have uncovered greaf nuantities of gold. Apparently there is a break west of Red Lake, for geological surveys made in that territory reveal few mineral de- nosits of a promising nature. Even between Red Lake and Fort Hope, the department states, the belt may be interrupted by gran- ite beds. but the freouency of the discoveries that have been made would suggest, they say, that the 20ld chain fis almost eontinuous for approximately 200 miles. ANOTHER MR. LOVE Everett C. Love, R.R. No. 2, Osh- awa told The Times today that he was not the "Complainant Love" in the damage suit heart in Whithy on November 22, NON-SUPPORT CHARGE Isaac Wright pleaed mot guilty to a charge of none-support of h wife and three children when ar- raigned in police court this morn- ing before Magistrate Willis of Whitby. The crown requested a remand which was given. No evi- dence was taken, POSTAL INSTRUCTIONS Post authorities have lssu- ed further Instructions regarding the mailing of parcels and letters to the Old Country so that they will arrive in time for Christmas. These must be mailed, correctly addressed and stamped to ensure delivery, the first part of this week. SNOW ON HIGHWAY While Oshawa was drenched with rain yesterday Peterboro and district was receiving a real snow storm according to motorists who had come from the Lift-Lock city, One truck driver who was Toronto bound stated that the road between Peterboro and Port Hope became as slippery as glass as the snow melted and froze as it fell. It took him one hour and thirty minutes to make the trip which he ordinarily made in thirty-five minutes, IMPROVE TOURIST HOMES Evidence of the prosperity which the tourist traffic brings to this or any other community situated on the main highways of travel is seen in the fact that improvements are being made to several tourists' homes at the western entrance of the city, The bulk of the business of course comes between the months of May and October when the Americans flock through On- tario pleasure-bound, During the winter the proprietors of the high- way inns are able to prepare for for the next season's business, DISCUSSED JUVENILE COURT Judge D. B, Harkness, Secretary of the Social Service Union of On- tario, addressed the cily council in committee of the whole last night in reference to the setting up and operation of a Juvenile Court un- der the Juvenile Delinquents' Act. The speaker was careful to avoid anything in the nature of dictation with respect to the local situation, but pointed out very clearly how the Juvenile Court functioned, and answered many questions submitted by members of Council, It is un- derstond that the finance commit- tee will report to the city council Monday night favorably with re- spect to the setting up of a Juven- ile Court here, SHOOTING FOR GEESE Oshawa sportsmen today gather- ed at the Gun Club, Cedardale for the annual goose shoot. There was a large attendance and the sport continued all the afternoon with fat and plump geese as the trophies for the marksmen. is | NEW APARTMENT HOUSE A large frame and galvanized iron barn situated near King street west, a short distance south of the Smith Pottery shop, is being re- modelled into an apartment house, The barn was built a few years ago but became useless for its orig- inal purpose as the farm which it was to serve was divided into building lots and has blossomed forth in new homes. A LI®TLE COLDER The Weatherman says wseterly winds will prevail tonight and Sun- day with mostly cloudy weather and a little lower temperature, A depression which passed over the Great Lakes yesterday, causing rain in southern Ontario, is now passing to the Maritime Provinces. The weather has been mild in the West, bul is becoming colder there today. IS RECOVERING Mrs. William Forshaw, 301 Gib- bons street, returned to her home yesterday from the Oshawa Gen- eral Hospital, and is now conval- escing from injuries received in an accident Tuesday night when an automobile driven by T, Farrow, North Oshawa, struck the horse and buggy which she was driving, Her 14-year-old son, who was rid- ing with her, was thrown into the ditch at the impact but escaped injury, EMBLEM OF SCOTCH PRIDE Simultaneously with the advent of St. Andrew's Day, yesterday, their came to The Times office, through the courtesy of a Scotch resident of the city, a copy of a supplement to the Edinburgh Sun- day Post, giving with many illus- trations a description of the Kdin- burgh Shrine, the memorial to the Scotch lads who paid the supreme sacrifice in the Great War, This shrine, which took ten years to comple.e, is situated within the walls of Edinburgh castle, and is admittedly the most wonderful memorial in the world, It embodies in stone a tribute to every military unit that went out from Scotland, and a beautiful steel casket con- tains the names of every son of Scotland who laid down his life in the struggle. The Hall of Honor in the building is a beautiful marble hall, each pillar of which is a repository for the colors of a Scoich regimént, Throughout it shows Scotland's pride in her sons, shown with the typical reserve and reticence of the nation, Public Striking evidence of the marked expansion of business throughout Canada is one of the outstanding features of a strong annual state- ment which the Bank of Montreal is now reporting to its shareholders With its large resources, the Bank has readily been able to meet the increased requirements of various industries, with the result that the gain in current loans in Canada for the year.is well in excess of $50, 000,000, At the same time the cus- tomary strong position of the Bank has been maintained, The statement, which is for the fiscal year to October 31st, shows that the total assets of the Bank have increased to $878,782,523, compared with $831,548,967 at the end of the previous fiscal year. of this total guid assets amount to $473,808,282 equal to 59.55 per cent. of liabilities to the publie, In- cluded in liquid assets are total cash holdings of $118,987,065 or 14.95 per cent, of all liabilities to the public. These cash holdings comprise gold and subsidiary coin $33,505,262, as compared with $38,400,2562,: Dominion Notes $60,- 391,802, up from $50,552,958, and deposit in Central Gold Reserves of $25,000,000, compared with $19, 000,000, ' Increase in Loans, As a result of the important de- velopments that are oceurring fin. many sections of the country, the tendency has been to report sub- stantial increases in call, as well as current loans. Call and short losns in Canada now stand at $39,147,080 up from $29,719,402, while call loans in Great Britain and the Un- ited States are down to $138,965,- 168 from $151,381,604. Indicative of the much larger eeneral business being handled. current loans in Canada have ris- en to $308,752,388 from $255,155,- 693, waking an increase of $53.- 596.695 over the previous year. At the same time, loans to cities. towns and municipalities and school dis- tricts have gained to $22,416,665, from $16,651,162, while current loans and discounts elsewhere than in Canada are reported at $35,496.- 446. down from $45.628.393. Reflecting the growth in the wealth of the Canadian people. de- posits continue to find mew high Bank of Montreal Statement Shows Trade Expansion Current Loans in Canada at $308,752,388 Have Made Not- able Gain of $53,000,000 During Year -- Total Assets Stand at $873,782, 523 -- Liquid Assets at $473,898, 282 Are Equal to 59.55 Per nt, of Liabilities to the SIR CHARLES GORDON, G,B.E, President of the Bank of Montreal levels, Total deposits at the end of the year stand at $721,465,012, compared with $700,227,281, a gain of over $20,000,000. -- Profit Increase The profit and loss statement in- dicates that with the larger vol- ume of business offering profits have also shown a tendency to in- crease, Profits for the year, after deducting charges of management bad and doubtful debts, were $5,- 847,327, equal to 9 1-2 per cent. on the combined capital, reserve and undivided profits; this compar- ed with $5,299,887 at the end of the previous year. The profits, ad- ded to the amount carried forward brought the total available for dis- tribution up to $6,002,126. This was distributed 2s follows: Divi- dends and bonus. $4,188,338; pro- vision for taxes Dominion Govern- ment, $400,000; reservation for bank premises, $700.000; a total of $5,288,338. and leaving a balance to the credit of profit and loss of $713,788 as compared with $154,- The report will be submitted to shareholders at the annual meeting to be held on Monday next, Decem- ber 3rd. and making full provision for all. rr EJ i WEATHERMAN FRR Ks In December fragrant chaplets blow, And heavy harvests R Sida the snow, ss _ December is here today, with a little bit of frost on his whiskers and a little coolness in disposition, --the rear Juan of the year 1928. Before December goes out there will be bugles in our stockings and vacancies in many o pocketbook. Today, so the papers say, Santa Claus arrived and was welcomed by the children, Santa Claus has moved along with the times and now uses an aeroplane to come to Oshawa, while, in former years, when you and I were kids, he came with sled and reindeer. 'Member how we used to lie awake half the night waiting to hear the jingle of the bells, and, even if we never heard them, there was the great heap of good things around the Christmas tree on the joyous Christ- mas morning just the same, Seats on the New York Stock Ex- change are now selling for the mod- est sum of a few thousand dollars over and above the half million and, no doubt, several of the Oshawa men who 'have been making so much money on the exchange these days in General Motors, Yellow Cab, Sinclair Oil and such things, will be making their wives a present of a seat there, so they will have some place to go and rest when they go to New York. One comforting thought about De- cember is that when this month is passed and gone there are only about seven or eight months to go before summer is due to arrive, The military ball next week is the great subject for conversation now in the homes of the elect and other- wise, Besides the usual Christmas drain upon the finances, the poor head of the house is now faced with the prospect of buying a new dress to make friend wife the envy of the crowd, A soft answer cannot turn away the desire of the eternal female for new habiliment. L Try this one on the wife: "Be plain in dress And sober in your diet; In short, my dearie, Kiss me and be quiet," * But they'll all be there--all the dandy boys and all the i dandy pretty girls ++ + + hearts beat happily; and when Music arose with its voluptious swell, Soft eyes look'd love to eyes which Aud spake again, nd all went merry as a rri , y marriage * %% Dancing is the craze today, and was once invented by Old Man Stupidity, who trembled on his thron. when once he discovered that in the minds of men, something like thoughts were assembled, and so he searched for a plausible plan to drive such things as thoughts from the minds of men nd women, He thought of this and then of that, And all those speculative ills, And then at last he hit the mark-- And introduced Auadrilles, But, since this is a story of the weather and not of things terpsich- orean, permit us to say that the weather is cooler and likely to be cool and cloudy for a day or two, While the clearing process is on, there are likely to be some snow squalls, It is fair and mild in the western provinces, but colder weather is set- ting in there today. Oshawa is not unduly excited, yet, over the civic election, but soon that popular song will be broadcasted "If elected I ,,,," Choice bits of literature will be published in the next four weeks by candidates aspiring to the goodwill of the "peepeel," The real sob story will come on the day after the election, The colder weather doesn't seem to make an iota of difference on the feminine attire--they go about just the same with fur coats and short skirts. and silk stockings, while mere man gazes and shivers, A sight today just got my goat, And nearly made me sneeze-- A bloomin' flapper in a bear-skin coat Just reaching bare-skin knees, Scientists tell us that high heeled shoes and silk stockings will eyentu- ally produce a race of women with hooves instead of feet. Lives of women all remind us We can make our lives sublime, But why go and leave behind us Hoofprints in the sands of time, Over in Vienna, they tell us, ugly legs' are fashionable, , they are just unayoidable, Meanwhile -- mostly cloudy and colder, Learning the Bible by heart is the self imposed task of the 40,000 members of the Bereau Band of Bible learners, Miss Elizabeth Hayes, a school teacher of Edmonton, Alta. buys old horses in order that she may personally see them humanely de- stroyed or placed in good homes where they do light work, Too Late to Classify ROOM AND BOARD IN PRIV- ate family.

(129¢) Sometimes it takes an expert on handwriting to figure out the var- ious heiroglyphies combined in let- ters to Santa Claus in care of the Christmas cheer committee of this city, But for some years now, there have been men at the head of this organization who may be consider- ed experts in deciphering these scrips. Then when Christmas Day is here each letter is answered with good things to eat, warm clothing and things needed to bring happi- ness into the hearts of so many little children and even grown-ups who are in want of recognition by the Committee. A Big Hope There are very few if any, of the needy families of Oshawa who do not receive some benefit from the Christmas Cheer Fund. The only hope on the part of the members of the committee is that Oshawans wil Ilremember it is solely up to them to swell the total of the Fund. There are more ways to help the Christmas Cheer Committee than by financial assistance, although every . cent subscribed gives the committee an opportuntiy to obtain the correct articles for distribution. If you are in business and feel that you are willing to ald the Commit- tee, as you should be, write out a donation collectable at Christmas time in merchandise. This is ap- preciated. Every year the commit- tee receives merchandise in thé form of food, clothing, ete, which are placed in baskets and loaded on a big truck a day or so hefore Christmas, It is taken to the homes of those needy ones throughout the city and there left with every good wish on the part of the donors. In the parcel is an accomnanying card extending the season's greetings, sn that the little gift on the part of Nghawa's more prosperous citizens is like "Rread from Heaven." Happiness Essential Happiness is a characteristic of the Christmas season. Without it, there is no real Christmas, That there are numerous families in Oshawa who, without our aid will no doubt experience an unhappy holiday, is generally known. It is up to us to make this happiness which we hope to feel, so wide- spread, so actual, that every liy- PAGE THREE | Oshawa Little Children of the .
