Citizens of Oshawa never fail to appreciate the efforts of local bodies to secure the best talent available, either in musical entertainments or lectures, Thursday evening was no exception, for the auditorium of Simcoe Stregt Methodist Church was filled to capacity while a large number occupied the 'gallery, being the occasion of a visit by Mr. Arthur Delroy, president of the New York Psychic Club, under the auspices of . Oshawa Lions' Club. This was the second time Mr. Delroy has spoken to an Oshawa audience the master- ful and fluent manner in which he dealt with his subjects, pertaining to hypnotism, spiritualism and char- acter handwriting showed that his knowledge: had been derived after wide experience and careful study. Attacks Spiritualism For many years Mr, Delroy was at- tached to the staff of the New York Times, writing articles on psychic fakery and therefore had an oppor- tunity of investigating the weird things he saw, such as "The Float- ing Woman", "Mind Readers" and "Hypnotists" and which he now re- produces and exposes for the benefit' of every citizen, Mr. Delroy also at- tacks spiritualism very severely, de- claring that the only way in which it is possible to talk to the dead is from the impression left by one whose personality you were well ac- quainted with. The impression of the person who had passed away would be so strong that when a question was asked, the answer would be received not verbally but mentally. It is impossible for a dead person to speak to any one because God_had ruled not. 7 Character Hand Writing Mr. Delroy's talk on character handwriting was unusually interest- ing. The various formations of let- ters indicated, he stated, whether the person was careless, generous, good natured, or otherwise. One point particularly emphasized was the importance of mental suggestion. Throughout the lecture there was a continual vein of humor making the various topics very entertaining but bringing out more clearly the real substance of the speaker's remarks Mr. Delroy believes implicitly in reading characters from handwriting and his demonstrations proved that it was quite possible to do so after diligent study. Making Friends. Probably the most important part of the address was the reference to "Personal Magnetism", and the thoughts and suggestions given by the speaker had a value, which it made use of by business men, sales- men, in fact every line of business, success would be assured in a great: er measure. Mr. Delroy spoke from practical experience apd he left a deep impression upon the minds of his audience. The outstanding point jn making friends jis to find out something another person likes and endeavor to care for the same thing. A salesman in talking to a prospec- tive buyer should choose some sub- ect of which the customer was par ularly fond, which would create mutual friendship and make sell- ing a much easier task. Making e and holding them was one of the secrets of success, Mr. Delroy red. Ridiculed Superstition "There is not a person who can- pot be reached through human in- ergst," he continued, "and mo ome can put anything over but yourself. Success or failure im life is entire- y your own uadertaking." The ker ridiculed all kinds of super- ons, averring that there was no h thing as bad luck. Dropping umbrella did not mean that a dis- ppointment was ahead but if that on thought there was, it certain- would happen. Relief in bad luck oys personality and is worse any kind of superstition. "A man's age is what he makes ,"- Mr. Delroy averred. "I have boys and girls 17 years of age 0 are actually 45, and men of 60, 0 are in health only 40. Prema- e grey hair is obtained by thought worry. There is continual talk out ill-health but the main cause from worrying.

In a general discussion members of the Council were unanimous that the County should go into the refor- estation scheme, not only for the preservation of the timber resources of the province, but also the utiliza- tion of sandy land suitable only for growing trees, and for the protection from drifting sands of adjaining lands suited for farming purposes. With assistance of a substantial character promised by the govern- ment the general opinion was that no time should be lost in entering upon the scheme, if even on a small scale, Several councillors cited in- stances of where trees planted on sandy land years ago had done well, and where results had been greater than ever expected. The trees plant- ed by Hartley Dewart, K.C., on his farm in the north part of the county. were held as an example of what could be accomplished in the matter of reforestation. , Reeve Davies, as chairman of the Standing Committee on tion appointed at the January ses- sion, who has planted thousands of trees in this county, was given praise by many members of the Council for the interest he had taken in the scheme at much personal sacrifice of time and money. COUNTY BUILDINGS T0 BE RE-WIRED; AID WINTER FAIR Grant of $500 to Big Livestock Show to Help First Exhibits Chairmap F. L. Mason, of the County Advisory Colamittee, report- ed to the County Council Thursday afternoon that in accordance with a recommendation of the January session, conferences of the county road foremen were held at Port Per- ry and Beaverton, with results that were beneficial both from an educa- tional and a practical standpoint, He strongly recommended that sim- ilar conferences be held annually. The recommendation was adopted, and the accounts in comnection there- with passed for payment. Road Grant to Villages The Council made special grants of one-half mill each to the villages of Beaverton and Port Perry for the purpose of improving the main streets of each village as connecting links of the county roads system. Beaverton gets $276 and Port Perry $412. The County Property Commitiee was given power to act in having the County Court House, jail and regis try office re-wired to the satisfaction of the Hydro Electric inspector, the wiring in these buildings having been condemned.

CONCRETE LIKELY Board of Works Will Present Recommendations to Special Council Meeting The construction of a number of concrete pavements, irg¢luding Rit- son Road and Albert Street, at $2.35 a yard, will, it is understood, be recommended by the Board of Works at a special meeting of the Council to be held probably next Monday evening. At a meeting of the Board held Thursday a number of tenders for both concrete and as- phaltic concrete were opened, but the price of the latter pavement, while considered more desirable, was deemed to be too high owing to the many large frontages on streets to be paved. The price on the con- | erete is somewhat lower than that | paid for the last concrete pavements, the highest figure being $2.78 a foot. Tenders were also opened for the sidewalks to be laid this summer, and a recommendation will be made to the Counci] that a local contractor get the work at 2lc a foot, a few cents lower than previous years, There were quite a number of ten. ders, At the special Council nieeting all the tenders received for both the pavements and the sidewalks will be laid on the table. The meeting promises to be quite a lively and important one, as the result of Sat- urday's voting on the two money by-laws and the daylight saving measure will be known. Inspector Elliott Has Busy Month At the regular monthly meeting of the Children's Aid Society last night Inspector Elliott presented a report which showed he has had one of the heaviest, if not the heaviest month he has ever had, During this period +he dealt with cases involving 116 children, and travelled approximate- ly 1170 miles. This heavy mile- age was in part due to the fact that Mr. Elliott was making his annual visit to all wards of the society in Ontario County. He has completed the visits im the northern part of the county, and has pnly a few children in Oshawa still to call on. He has completed his work two months earlier than usual. Details of Mr. Elliott's report are as follows: 2 Applications | received; 116 Children fuvolved; 4 Complaints received; : 8 Investigations made; 60 Pieces of mail received; 47 Pieces of mail sent out: 11 Meetings attended: 1170 ' Miles (approxi- mate) covered; 24 Office inter- views; 40 Places visited out side the town; 3 Wards in foster-homes heard from; 2 wards placed out; 65 Children visited: 5 warnings given; 2 chidremn taken to hospital for feeble-minded; 6 Children in the shelter at end of month; 1 Court Case, under the Act for Pro- tection of Children of Unmarried Parents.

L.. Mason, of Oshawa, is chairman, occasioned a lively debate, the first of the June session. The recommendation was adopted without any amendments, but not without strong opposition, the principal argument of the op- ponents heing that to increase the county road mileage meant an in- crease in the tax rate and debenture debt, now nearing half a million dol- lars. The New Extensions, Chairman Mason, of the Advisory Committee, in a lengthy report, stated that on June 3rd the commit- tee met the Advisory Committee of the County of Ontario with refer- ence to the extension of the county road system of Ontario county, and establishing a connecting link with the county road system of the County of Victoria. At this meet- ing a resolution was passed unanim- ously setting forth that the joint committees were of the opinion that it is in the interests of the two INJUSTICE TO GIVE COMPANY CONTROL FRENCHMAN'S BAY County Council to Send Strong | counties that the provincial highway scheme should be directly connected between the village of Beaverton in the county of Ontario, and the Glen- arm county road to Fenelon Falls and Bobcaygeon, Vietoria County. Petition Department It is set forth also that the Ad- visory Committee of Ontario County would recommend at the next ses- sion of the Council that they peti- tion the Department of Highways to designate Road No, 7, from the Port Bolster corner to the souther- ly limts of the corporation of the villige of Beaverton, a provincial county road, thence in a southeaster- ly direction on oad No. 17 to the intersection of this road and the provincial county road No. 49, thence easterly on the line between conces- sions 4 and 5, Thorah township, to the Boundary line between Ontario and Victoria. Further, that the County of Victoria would atthe next session of their Council petition the Highways Department to designate the roads between lots 10 and 11, Eldon Township, also rpads No. 16A, that portion of road No. 16 from the fourth concessin line of Fenelon, east of Fenelon Falls village, and road No. 2 from Fenelon Falls vil- lage to Bobcaygeon, a provincial county road, a distance of approxim- ately 3.8 miles. The committee reported further that they had considered the request of the representatives of Brock Township and recommended that the ine between concessions 5 and 6, Brock Township, commencing at lot 3, intersection of lot 7, thence east- erly to the intersection of the pro- vincial highway, in the village of Sunderland, an approximate dis- Protest to Ottawa Govern- | = | Warden Richardson brought to] the attention of the County Council Friday morning what he termed a flagrant violation of the people's rights and a high handed action of some minister of the Crown at Ot- tawa in allowing a private company to gain control of Frenchman's Bay, near Pickering, one of the finest na- tural bathing beaches near Toronto. The Warden stated that a number of years ago the Pickering Harbor Company obtained a charter from the government for the purpose of improving the harbor. The company, however, went into the business of selling sand and gravel, and instead of improving the harbor they des- troyed the beach at Frenchman's Bay and made no improvements to the harbor. They further securea government, without the knowledge of the municipality of Pickering, control of the Bay, and leased their rights to another person or persons, the lessee now charging a rental for the use of the bay, thus depriving the public from using what really belonged to them. It was almost inconceivable and nothing short of criminal that the government should give such right to private individuals or companies. The warden asked the County Coun- ¢il to join with the Council of Pick- ering in making strong representa- tives to the government at Ottawa that the lease be cancelled and some of the damage corrected. An Injustice The council was unanimous that the whole affair was an injustice to the people and that a special com- mittee should be appointed to con- ter with Pickering Council in draw- ing up a resolution to be forward- ed to the government. Reeve Jewett, of Cannington, ex- pressed the opinion of nearly every one present when he stated that no minister of the Crown had a right to give to any ome control of any harbor or beach that rightfully be- longed to the people. Deputy-Reeve Forgie of Pickering, stated that the company now in control of the bay even charged the people to enter up- oun it and for the use of a boat. Warden Richardson named a spe- cial committee of Reeves Jewett, Mason, Walls and Garrows to meet the Pickering Council and draw up a strong resolution to the govern- ment. trom the Grant to Scott Fair Council granted the Scott Agricul- tural Society an additional $25 for their annual Fair. They will now receive $125 this year. A by-law was passed making a grant of a half mill to the Town of Uxbridge for the improvement of certain highways serving as connect- ing links to the county road system. Council adjourned at 11.30 o'clock Saturday forenoon to go to Toronto as guesis of the Harbor Commission. The sum f $50 was voted to pay the ment. 30-a tance of 3.2 miles, be added to the county road system. Also that in accordance with a request from re- presentatives of Mara township, they would recommend that that county road No. 20, Mara township, be ex- tended westerly from the intersec- tion of county road No. 20 and the G.T.R. to the westerly end of the road between concessions 3 and 4, a distance of approximately one mile. Opposed to Extensions, Reeve D. W. Walls, of Beaverton, led the opposition forces to the re- port. He contended that the county roads were now very evenly distri- buted between the municipalities, and he was opposed to one mile more being added to the county road system at the present time. He did not want to see the tax rate too high, at a time when momey was none too plentiful and times not the best. Reeve Walls stated that if the county were prepared to provide money to take care of the extensions as they should be cared for, then he would not be opposed to the exten- siops proposed. John Forgie, 1st deputy-reeve of Pickering, concurred with the re- marks of Reeve Walls. The County roads he thought had been equally distributed. Unless the extensions were to open roads to connect with the county system, he was opposed to them. It was just simply load- inig township roads on the county. The county now had miles of roads that were not what they should be, without taking on any more. The soaring debenture debt should also be considered, now nearing half a million. The reeve of Scott Township, Bryon Stiver, argued that the Coun- cil should place confidence and re- liance on the recommendations of the County Advisory Committee ap- pointed by the Council in January. They had gone over the county, and had some judgment as to whether the extensi recommended would be a benefit or not to the 'county. Was their judgment no good? Reeve Morris, Oshawa, upheld the report of the Committee. There must be a reason, he stated, for the recommendations made by the com- mittee. Chairman Mason, Oshawa, pointed out that there was not a mile of the proposed extensions to the coun- ty road system in the south end of the county, but only in the north, s0 that favoritism or self interest could be charged. The recommen- dations were made in the best in- terests of the county and mot of any particular municipality. It was not a case of "you support my road and I will support yours" as was ation in the townships. It was rath- er a case of doing the greatest good for the greatest number. With re- gard to adding to the road mileage expense of transportation. (Continued on page 3) ©
