With the added "cold temperature, the weather was "looked upon as entirely disagreeable, "although the younger people, who ! realize the importance of cold wea- | ther to induce rosy cheeks and healthy complexions, and form a more formidable barrier against that dreaded disease, . influenza, greeted the frigid temperature with delight, Youth is Pleased J With health and disease in the background, the coldness is a sig- nificant herald for a real winter, which spells sleighing, tobogganing and skating in abundance, While the older ones shiver at the frost pictures on the windows the young- er ones revel in the thought that hereafter will take place a winter rather late in arriving, with its win- ter sports, its healthful recreations and its brilliant social functions, Kill "Flu" Germs Not long ago Dr. T. W. G. Mec- Kay, M.O.H. for Oshawa and auth- ority on communicable diseases, stat- ed to The Times that the colder weather was » favorable element in regard to the disease, influenza. High temperature, with humid atmosphere, is one of the very best combinations to work in spreading the disease, but the low temperature will make human resistance to the disease much the firmer, and consequently there will be less of the discase, he said. Influenza, which starts from appar- ently a clear sky, is serious in its effects, and when it begins to rise, does so guickly, The Great Out Doors Although no real anxiety may be felt for Oshawa's population from the effects of the "flu," every pre- caution should be taken to ward off its effects by good healthful re- creation and absence from "cooped- up" meetings where public repres- entation is general, Dr. McKay said. FORMER OSHAWA LADY PASSES IN HER SND YEAR Mrs. Edna Jane Dingle Dies at Her Home in Toronto The death occurred Sunday, "January 6th, after a brief illness of Edna Jane Dingle, widow of the late William T. Dingle of Osh- awa, at her home at 604 Mark- bam St., Toronto. Though in her 92nd year the late Mrs. Dingle had been enjoying unusually gooo +health and vitality for some time .and heér sudden passing came as a "shock to her many friends and relatives. Her demise removes one who might well be termed a pioneer of Oshawa. Coming to Canada at the age of three years from St. Blasey, Cornwall, England, she began life here with her parents when the set- tlement was known as Skea's Cor- ners,--a typical early Ontario vil- , lage. Her father, Henry Pedlar, founded the present great industry . here which still bears his name,-- . Pedlar People Limited, and the de- .ceased's life for fifty years was . bound up in the growth and pro- gress of Oshawa. Conspicuous .amongst her interests was her work in the then Simcoe St. Methodist Church of which she was a life long and founder member. In 1856, she was married to Wil- liam Thomas Dingle, a builder and contractor, also of Cornish descent, whose activities resulted in many of the buildings still regarded as landmarks in Oshawa. They made their home and founded their large family in the building on Simcoe St., now used for Oshawa city of- ¥ . In 1905 following the death of her husband some years previous- ly, Mrs. Dingle removed with her ly to Toronto where she re- sided quietly ever since. She is survived by a large Zam- ly of eleven children, thirty-three grandchildren, and seventeen great- grandchildren. There mourn her loss six sons, William H., and Dud- ley of Toronto; Charles H., James R. and Guy V., of Winnipeg; and George S. of Montreal, 'An eldest son, Frank E., predeceased his mother two years ago. There me five caughters, Mrs. W. H. Perri- ton of Montreal, Mrs. D. D. Stew- art of Winnipeg, Mrs. A. H. Abbott of Toronto, and Miss Marietta L. and Edith G. at home.

Just when the skies seemed 'all i a pretty snow storm from the east, The Weatherman pulled a néw trick from his bag and de- luged the city with a pelting rain that lasted into the early hours of Sunday.

With the thermometer rising to 42 on Saturday afternoon, the dis- turbance which took its origin in the Mississippi Valley, burst upon the city, starting as a visible driz- zle and developing in a driving storm» that kept everyone indoors except those whose duties forced them to face the elements, Early Sunday the wind changed to the westward and dried the streets sufficiently to avoid fev pavements and by Sunday nicht old King Winter arrived in all his fury preceded and accompanied by a gale that drove the mercury to the bottom of the tube, in hurried fashion, Todav Kin» Winter remains and all that is needed now fs the snow to reassure the younesters to whom Santa Clars broveht the hitherto veel~gg gleich or tohorgan.

ROTARIANS HEAR OF POPULARITY LITTLE THEATRE John Craig, Director - Pro- ducer, Points Out Oshawa's Opportunity Outlining the work of the Little Theatre Movement and the manner in which it affects, most desirably, a community, John Craig, director- producer of the Little Theatre in Oshawa delivered an interesting ad- dress at the weekly luncheon of the Rotary Club in Welsh's Par- lours at noon toda . Mr, Craig dealt 'specifically with the facts showing a desirability for such an organization in a community especially a city the size of Oshawa. Progressing as rapidly as it is along industrial lines, Oshawa he said was in need o° something which would reach the people, or a representative portion of them and bring out that higher art which lies dormant through no fault of their town; the opportun- ity to .' .ess and hear drama other than through the medium of the sil- ver screen. Growing More Popular Although Mr. Craig reiterated his statement that he would give no dis- course on the heavy drama as a re- fine * art, he made it plain by means of instances where it has worked out most successfully in other localities, that the Little Theare movement is increasing in popularity and will soon become an international institution. N, Here In an indirect manner, the speaker admonished his hearers with the fact that Oshawa would become conspicu- ously obsolete in comparison, with other communities because of its tre- mendous rise to prominence through industrial channels, if the Little Theatre here failed to function through the non-patronage of the cit- izens. The membership list of the organization in this city, he pointed out, was growing considerably, and no doubt would increase as the pop- ularity of the Little Theatre betame established. Prohibits L.: to the tremendous overhead which bears down upon the attrac- tions of the better type working from a cenralized burcau, it was impos- sible to procure these releases for Canada, or even some parts of the United States, said Mr. Craig. Some of the better plays from, the pens of well-knoy.n artists re never produ- ced, for this very reason. "As a re- sult we arc unfortunate in not being able to review tHem." An : "But," the speaker said, "the Lit- tle Theatre gives us the opportunity we lack otherwise. Through this lat- ter medium we are able to sce the better types of dramatical successes, p WEATHERMAN ~ L L L L 4 L Old Winter's got his temper up, He's breathing steam and frost, And Oshawans are stoking up, Regardless of the sost, King Winter is in our midst.

Sadie said she went to a road house on Saturday night and spoke to the waiter in French and the Scotch. Sadie said she often wondered just what was meant by a "passing remark."

DEARTH OF NPYS OF BURSTING RIS AND EARLY ROBINS Pet Corns of Ancient Osh- awan Forecast Blizzards and Frost There was a dearth of news to- day concerning budding crocuses and bulging blassoms on the lilac bushes. Tales of robins seem in city gardens also had a slump andethe only birds noticed in the city to- day were the domestic pigeon and the chesty little English sparrow, and even these robust aerial citi- zens had cold feet. Visions of Spring today faded before the mearer vision of Win- ter, and skates, sleds and tobog- gans were more the subject of con- versation than violets, lily-of-the- valley or other Spring memories.

FIREMEN CALLED T0 PFSOUE CAT PUT OUT FIRES Fire Fighters Deal With Se- ries of Small Blazes, Mostly in Chimneys A series of small fires, occurring mostly in chimneys have occupied the attention of the fire department during the last few days. The de- partment was even called out to res- cue a cat, stranded upon the top of a telephone pole, but upon arrival at the spot, no pussy was to be seen. The coolness of the weather must have pursuaded the feline to retire before the arrival of the fire fight- ers. A car belonging to Bell's Taxi caught fire in the engine compart- ment on Albert street mear Thick- son's Coal Yards this morning, but gross damage was prevented by the firemen, who extinguished the blaze by means of chemicals. A chimney blaze at 163 Nassau street caused a run for the depart- ment at 1020 this morning to the home of R. Ballantyne. No damage resulted. A telephone alarm from Moffatt's Motor Sales declaring a chimney fire to be raging proved to be of little avail, as no damage was apparent. The alarm was received at 5.35 last night, ,.. COLD WEATHER IN WHEAT BELT PUTS PRICES UPWARD Chicago, Jan. 7.--Influenced by severe cold weather in the domestic winter wheat territory and by un- expected price upturns at Liver- pool. The wheat market here av- erages higher early today. Fall- ing off of the amount of wheat on ocean passage was reported and al- so decreased offerings from Arg- entina. Chicago wheat opened % to 3% to Sec up, but later reacted somewhat. Corn started unchang- ed to 3c advance and subsequent- ly held near to initial figures. Oats were firm. Provisions like- wise tended up grade. MODERN VALUES Money has no relation to life at present; it has mo relation to any- thing real; it has mo true relation to the things which it buys. It has got outside of human control al- together; it is a Frankenstein mon- ster dominating the unhappy world which created it. Where Charity once spread a cloak which was permitted 'to cover venial fauits, this Frankenstein monster now offers the one garment which is allowed mot only to cover, but to glorify, any kird of mortal sin. Nothing matters, if you can spen more money than your neighbor; and if you can spend it in such a way thaf no one who really needs it benefits by it, seems so much the 4 better. PUSTIL. STAFF! BECOMING NORM FOLLOWING "FLU" Twenty-eight of the Regular Crew Ars Again on Duty The Post Office staff is rapidly be- coming normal again following the deletion of its ranks from the effects of the "flu" epidemic. During the Christmas rush, and for a number of days following, there were as many as ten of the regular staff ill with the disease, and off duty. A number of new men were taken on to allay the danger of a clogging up of the mails during this crucial time, and most of these have now been re- placed by the regular men who have fought off the disease and are re- turning to work. - 28 At Work Fortunately each one affected has taken care of himself in the proper manger, and has overcome serious consequences which would bound to result if the disease was not looked after in its early stages. Of the' normal staff of 35, there are 28 again at work, and prospects look bright for the complete and successful return to mormalcy again within a' short time. PARROT "BLINKS" AND IDENTIFIES ITS OWNER Chicago, Jan. 7.--A green par- rot "Baby" biinked at Judge Harry B. Hamlin in the Racine Avenue Police Court here, ready to "testify." Mrs. Olympia Blair, 60 years old, the complain- ant, charged that John Slovick, keeper of a rooming house, had kept "Baby" as a guarantee for back rent she didn't owe. Slovick claimed the bird was his. "Give me a chance Judge," said Mrs. Blair, "and I'll prove that Baby is mine" The Court nodded. "Heilo Baby," called Mrs. Blair. "Hello mamma, hello, mamma, hello mamma--"the bird chaitered back. "All right, Mr. Slovick," said Judge Hamlin," you're mext. "Hello, Baby," Slovick called pleasantly. "Qrr-r-r-rk," came the reply from the cage, as "Baby" shuffled to a far corner. "The parrot is yours, Mrs. Blair," Judge Hamlin ruled, "Mr. Slovick, you're fined $25 and costs."

Schnabel, wanted n connection with his wife's disappearance, be- ing or having been in Toronto. He is acting on information received from Montreal and other cties. New Phase The search enters a mew phase with assurance that the woman's body, exhumed at Cornwall last week, is that of Mrs. Schnabel, formerly of Hamilton and latter- ly of Montreal, who disappeared September 2. Identification of the most conclusive order was secur- ed over the week-end in Montreal when George Allen of Hazelton, Pa., recognized the body as that ot his sister; and Mrs. P. W. Pugh of Hamilton, Ontario, identified boti the remains and the dress in which the corpse was clad. Mr P. Morte of Hamilton, aunt of the dead woman, confirmed the latter identification, and even remem- bered being with Mrs Schnabel when the dress was purchased and buying its "twin." Good Police Work Discovery of the identity of the Cornwall corpse came after excep- tional detective work on the part of Montreal sleuths. Knowing that Schnabel had an automobile, and that he drove occasionally to Hamilton, they checked possible routes nd diocovered that a pos ice officer mear Cornwall hau taken the number of Schnabel's land handling negotiations until the | achieved a position fn which he is success of the system seems assur- o Alfred E.

She glories in the biting breezes which sweep down from the north to put color in her cheeks aid a sparkle in her eyes. Miss Oshawa is abroad today in all the glory of a natural complex- jal, in her smart sport togs, and when it comes to winter and girls, Oshawa fis in the front rank of Canadian cities. Outdoor winter sports will come into their own from this time on and Miss Oshawa and Miss Canada will be "there with the goods." Girls who have acquired smrart skiing and togoganring costumes to wear on bright afternoons, have been looking at the brown fields and hille for the past month, but now they are hopeful that the snow wen't be very far behind the frost. If The Weatherman will deign to give a good snowfall, Miss Osh- awa will be seen in all her radiant beauty and the hills and ponds will echo with the merry laughter of rosy-cheeked girls with their skis, snowshoes and toboggans. WHEAT POOL 15 GIVEN TRIBUTE Montreal, Jan. 7.--The Canadi- an wheat pool is a "fresh and vi- tal" institution, which is not only bringing contentment and prosper- ity to the farmer, but which has given him a feeling that he has in control of his own economic pos- ition, declared Professor C. R. Fay of the economie history depart- ment of the University of Toronto, in an address here yesterday before the Young Men's Forum. The topic of Professor Fay's address was the growth and development of the co-operative movement among the farmers of Western Canada. Producers and consumers bave found that the wheat pool is the most practical panacea at their disposal. By promoting better business, the pool has also effect- ed better farming and better living. "The co-operative movement fis seen to advantage in other diree tions." Professor Fay said. "is promotes good feeling among farm- ers avd its open-d or policy helps to make mew settlers feel immed! ately at home. It is a local bond of contact strengthened by the com- mon ownership of elevators and terminal structures." Many hard problems still fzce the promoters of the co-operative movement in Western Canada, but as these promoters are the farm- ers themselves and they are coming to realize that they must aet for themselves in the matter, the future ed, concluded Professor Fay.
