N Oshawa and District WANT INCREASED RATES Mr, Francis Dagger, Supervisor of Telephone Systems, heard the appeal Friday at the Courtroom at Cobourg of the Haldimand Rural Telephone Company for permission to increase its charges to persons who are not shareholders from $13 to $15, There . was little opposition to the request offered. Judgment will be given later, PICNIC POSTPON:D | PERT The Annual Sunday School picnic of the Baptist Church which was to have been held yesterday has been postpon- ed, till Wednesday, August 16, on ac- count of the unfavorable weather which prevailed yesterday, The picnic will be held at Rogers' Farm, Preached on Sunday, Rev. D. L, Gordon, of Agincourt, occupied the pulpit of the Presbyterian Church on Sunday while Rev, George Yule is on his holidays, The speaker at the 8imcoe Street Methodist Church was Rev, Mr, Hartstone, of Woodville, who was supplying in the absence of Rev. J, H, McBain, who is holidaying at Lake Couchiching with his family, Storm Deranged Switch A terrific thunderstorm along the lake front Monday morning resulted in the switchboard at the Healey Falls plant of the Hydro being de- ranged and power lines being put temporarily out of commission, About eleven o'clock the supply to Oshawa, as well as other municipal- ities was cut off, and the street cars were at a standstill, The serious ness of the situation, however, pas- sed away after noon, General Motors Beat Peterboro Owls By 4-1 Score In a friendly football game between the General Motors of Oshawa and the Owls at the Oval in Peterboro last Saturday General Motors brought home the bacon by a score of 4 to 1, The Owls won the toss for ends and set Oshawa to face the sun. An im- mediate attack on the part of the Owls forced a corner, which was, however, fruitless, The play continued to favor the local team and a fast shot from Hardie just missed by inches, Hutton also played a great game for the Owls, Hardie took a pass to center and open- ed the scoring with a fast shot, the ball going in close to the upright. Though good play was in evidence for the remainder of the first half there was no further scoring. In the second half the Oshawa boys aided by a breeze had the best of the | play and by using a long passing game soon had the score equal, Bennett flashing a fast ball past Roberts. Cald- er at center-half for the visitors was the outstanding player of the game, He kept his forwards going to such good purpose that Bennett was able to score three more goals before the final whistle, The game was played in a most sportsmanship and friendly spirit and was an exhibition of good football Wet Weather Could Not Spoil Picnic of Pythians Unfavorable weather did not prevent the annual picnic of the Oshawa Lodge No, 47, Knights of Pythias and the Pythian Sisters, Ontario Temple No, 1 from being a pronounced success, The annual outing was held yesterday at Corbett's point, A large number were present, many going out in the forenoon while the gathering did not break up until seven o'clock in the evening.

In an exhibition game at Lindsay yesterday afternoon, the Oshawa foot- ball team, local T. and D, representa- tives, completely swamped the Lindsay eleven by 12 to 1. This goes to show that local soccerites are being given a much better brand of soccer than other towns and cities in this section. Practically the whole of the Cobourg C.O.B.L. team were in town yesterday to see Oshawa and Oslers in action. The Ferry Town's aggregation will play here next Saturday, By - George.

Mr. The Toronto Star Weekly says: "The Central Ontario League will also be able to present a dangerous represen- tative, judging by the strong teams that the writer has seen in action against Leaside. Umpire Tom Ploster is authority for the statement that Pitcher Oulette, of Lindsay, is a really wonderful prospect, who, with a couple of seasons' experience, will be right up with the top-notchers." td » Window Displays (Continued from page i) The south window is a display cal- culated to interest the firemen visitors in town. Here is a large two storied house with lawn and garden and the gallant fire fighters, in their slickers and helmets are actively engaged in quenching a conflagration which is gutting the interior of the building. {Two streams of water are continually [playing on the building from the out- |side, while a third line of Hose has {been laid into the interior. The most |uptodate motor fire equipment is in {use at this miniature blaze, one of the {streams being directed by a fire fighter from the top from an aerial ladder. The Purdy Company constructed prac- tically everything used is this display. Two humorous windows are provid- ed by "The Arcade," and Engels. The former contains a large number of car- toons, placed in the south window, and much favorable comment has been heard regarding this display. Among the local celebrities "taken off." one finds Mayor John Stacey, George Stalter, Percy Goyne, Ted Brown, Fire {Chief A. C. Cameron and others. On the opposite side of the street, Engels, evidently with a vision of the future which is conjured up in their mind by the present day "mew woman," have a caricature of a women's fire brigade in 1930. The west window of the Hydro shop, King street east, also displays a fire scene, while Jury & Lovell's have de- voted their centre window to a phase OSHAWA, ONTARIO, TUESDAY, AUGUST 8, 1922 depend upon August economies to save real moncy. u sth Foe concessions than ever before, as is wonderfully exampled in the list we print on this page.

The whole is made a for- cible advertisement by the presence of cameras and "snaps" of forest scenes. The north window of Johnson's store, Simcoe street north, is occupied by the display of the prizes for the firemen's demonstration, while the north window of Ward & Dewland's has four pictures of the Oshawa Volun- teer Fire Brigade of 1850 and a large picture of the 1922 Oshawa Brigade, with its motor apparatus, steamer and wagons. | In the morth window of "The Are- ade," there is a tasteful display, centr- ing around a young "Miss Canada," the whole presenting a pleasing scene for the eye. In the windows of the Stalter Music store many interesting fire pictures are to be seen while the same concern has gome farther than the using of mere flags to de- corate its window space. They have flags, it is true, but carrying out the vision brought to every one's mind by the mere sight of a Jack, they have an interesting display of modern imple- ments of waifare, which is further emphasized by the presence of the war arms of the first citizens of this com- tinent--the Redskins.

Mr. Hun- ter pointed out the two great thoughts that Col. McCrae wished to implant in the minds of Canadians through his poem, "In Flander Fields," citing the \iwo passages: -- "To you from failing bards The torch we throw. be yours to hold it high," And the second:-- "If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep though poppies grow In Flanders field." Many interpretations have been ad- vanced for the use of the word "torch" here, some saying that it stands for the struggle for justice, others the fight for the principles of righteous- 'ness. For convenience sake, Rev. Mr. "Hunter described it as symbolical of the spirit of Christian brotherhood. The speaker pointed out how in the days before the war people had argued that there could be no more wars, re- ferring to international trade, educa- tion, law, ad of sci and other things as direct detriments to war. But all these had been found wanting--the spirit of Christian brotherhood for which the soldiers fought and died isthe only basis on which civilization can exist, he declar- ed. The war, he pointed out, estab- lished this spirit and in these days of reconstruction the mations should strive to build it up. Retér fez io the prevailing social unrest, Rev. Mr. Hun- ter, amid applause from his listeners, affirmed that once capital and labor pay for am honest day's work, the world would be getting the spirit of Christian brotherhood, which is the basis of universal peace. Rev. A. M. Irwin, pastor of King Street Methodist Church, opened the meeting with prayer and during the service, the two hymns, "O God Our Help in Ages Past," and "Jesus Lover of My Soul," were sung. Miss E. Mec- Intyre acted as pianist. Upon a mo- tion of Past President Thomas Skin- ner, seconded by Past President James Wilson, a hearty vote of thanks was tendered to the speaker by the presi- dent, Mr. John Waugh.

"HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY" This famous saying of Benjamin Franklin's has so often proven true that it is now generally realized that honesty is the only basis on which a really successful business may be built. Honesty has been the guid- ing policy of The Salada Tea Com- pany since 1892, when the business was founded. Honest Quality, Hon- est Value, and Honest Representa- tion through advertisements, have combined to make more people 'use "Salada" tea daily than any other tea sold in North America. If you do mot use it now, a trial package from your Grocer will convince you that it is the most delicious tea on the market. Ask for it to-day. \ k 21 hod 2 0 40 a0 Sh es I6§111 0 ' oN. 1.
