Tenders will be called for various supplies, 1,500 feet of fire hose and five fire alarm boxes will be pur- chased, and two promotions in the department were authorized by the council, While Fire Chief W. R. Elliott|P would not state to the press where the five new fire alarm boxes are to be placed, it is understood that the locations will provide boxes in place remote from present fire alarm boxes and where they are badly needed ac- cording to the density of the popula- tion. It will be about two months be- fore these are placed, the fire chief stated last night, as they have to be made to order. Lieut. R. Hobbs was given promo- tion to the rank of captain in the de- partment, and Fireman G. Roughley was gazetted a lieutenant, the new scale of pay to date from March 1. Fireman G.

What Others Say THE PIPE BAND PRACTICE Mr. Editor, Oshawa Daily Times, Dear Sir: With reference to your front page report on the request for accomoda- tion for Pipe Band Practice and the Trustees' comments with regard to same. Further comments may not be out of order--let us start--something in a little space in your popular news. paper, ., Evidently Trustee Ross McKinnon, if he is reported correctly, "A Braw Scot," has not had the privilege or the honor of marching' behind = the Pipes, either at practice or in the "wee sma hours" in the morning, go- ing into action as hundreds of thou- sands of "Gallant Scots" have done. For the trustees' information I would say that the Pipes don't sound any better or any worse now 'than they did hundreds of years ago, and that whether the request is granted or not the pipes will always and for all time to come sound the same to a real Scot. No doubt Trustee Norriss's huge joke will be broadcasted, and will probably find a place on the front page of the "Eye Opener," (A Scot) PIANO RECITAL IS REAL TREAT FOR MUSIC STUDY CLUB HELEN STOBIE, BELLE. VILLE, SOPRANO, ALSO ENTERTAINS Pianist is Clifford McCor- mack, Pupil of B. H. Car- man, Toronto A piano recital by Clifford Emp- son McCormick, pupil of B, H. Car- man, Toronto Conservatory of Music, hassisted by Helen Stobie, soprano of of Belleville, Ontario, provided a tare musical treat for the members and guests of the Oshawa Music Study Club at the March meeting held Monday evening in the Rotary al fresh soprano and a charming stage presence , sang Benedict's difficult "Carnival of Venice" with ease and dramatic appreciation. Encored, she sang sweetly and sympathetically "My Laddie." .Her second group of songs contrast- ed "Christina's a) a tender and pathetic Highland love song, set to Dvorak's "Humoresque," and Ger- man's English favorite "Who Will Buy My Lavender," showing a good effect Mrs. Stobie's skill in interpre- tation. "As We Part" and "The Awakening" concluded this group which was enthusiastically encored by an appreciative audience, AN APPRECIATION OF CLIFFORD McCORMICK To hear Clifford Empson McCor- mick play a program like last night's one naturally concludes that he has been a serious student for the usual number of years required to 'take a solo degree. - As a matter of fact, he has studied about two years and a half. If at times, then, some of his playing seems immature we have only to remember that he is just a young student and a very young man. He opened his program with Bee- thoven's "Moonlight Sonata": the adagio Sostenuto was done with a beautifully sustained, if a trifle cool, melody. It was when he began the allegreto, that Mr. McCormick's playing took on a much warmer shade, until he reached the presto agitato and dashed through it with fine abandon. In a short time he has developed a technique which res- it by this Sonata. In his Schumar®and Chopin group he appealed perhaps most strongly to his audience, and undoubtedly achieved his best and warmest tone of all in the Nocture Op. 15, No, 2, and the Etude Op. 25, No. 9. It is a pleasure to listen to one who pre- serves a clarity of tone and nice sense of balance, rather than to one who sacrifices these artistic essentials for undue speed and blurred pedall- ing. Mr. McCormick began his last group with Paulenc's "Mauvemente Perpetuels." Paulenc is indisputably a modern: it is hard to say just how well he is generally received. To one, his work is delightfully fresh and naive and Mr. McCormick play- ed these three little things with charm and delicacy. "La Jongleuse" by Moskowski, a trick of sheer; dexterity was clearly done and was applauded until it was played again. Mr, McCormick show- ed some thought in his program ar- rangement, so that when he next gave us the little Levitski Waltz we sat back and listened with pleased ears to this "danse de joie" so remi- 500 | niscent of Strauss. The etude de Concert of Stern- berg was the big close to a good program, and everyone -can attempt this composition, but Mr. McCormick did it with fair style and a gradual acceleration of tempo, evenly carried | through to the crashing climax. Af- ter this, he was good enough to come back with Schuman's "Romance" and the "Minstrels" of Debussy, It will be interesting to see what this young man will do with his tal- ent. If as we said before, he is lacking in breadth and maturity of conception, that will surely come in time. Certainly he has set high aims for himself, we wish him well in reaching them, INGREASED BAN ON French Theatre Owners Pro- test Plans of Pro- ducers Paris, March 19.--The plans of French motion picture producers to increase the ban on the importation of foreign films received a setback re- cently when petitions of 1,500 thea- tre owners opposing the reduction of importations were presented to the Minister of Public instruction. The petitions came principally from pro- vincial theatre owners, who claimed that they needed foreign, and es- pecially American films, to survive, as domestic production was insuffic- lent, The producers had recommended reduction of the import quota from the present quota of seven foreign films to one French, to three to one, Protests from the theatre owners is expected to delay and influence the action of the Cinema Control C ission in issuing mew regula- tions to replace those drawn up last year after the visit of Will Hays, American film czar, in the interest of American companies.

FILMS OPPOSED, | CITY AND DISTRICT NEWS | TELLS OF ARCTIC PEOPLES The work of the church in the North Land and within the Arctic circle was the story, full of in- terest, as told by Rév. J. M. Cris- all of Whitby at Christ Church last night. Rev. Mr. Crisall spent three years near the mouth of the great McKenzie river among the Loochoo Indians and Eskimo. Christianity has wrought wonders with these once heathen and war- like tribes and today they are peace-loving and industrious ciu- zens having churches and schools and using them. They enjoy many of the amenities of' civilization. Bishop Bompas, Apostle of the North, spent his life among them. RECKLESS DRIVER FINED William Glecoff paid a fine of $10 and costs in police court this morning for driving recklessly on Ritson Road south yesterday. Glecoff, police stated was driving his truck north on Ritson Road souht when in order to avoid col- liding with a car being driven by N. H. Edger, 63 Ritson road south, ran up onto the boulevard and sidewalk injuring a small tree which came in the path of the car and breaking off a Canadian Paci- fic Telegraph pole.

This was adopted, Coll FCT (ARR! hE as was the report of the Board of rhrd wal Works that garbage be collected RY three tim2s a week in the business IN PIISI FSS AREA section, the year round. At pres- J iJ LV ML ent this frequency of collection is only observed in the summer. THREE. TIMES WEEK COUNCIL REFERS RE. QUEST TO BOARD OF WORKS Council Lets the Collection + Contract for Year to A. Cockerham The contract for the collection of garbage in the city for the year was let to A. Cockerham, the con- tract figure being $10,000. 1ne council also decided that garbage would be collected in the down- town area three times a week the year around, and asked the city engineer to submit an estimate of the cost of burning garbage. 1ue Board of Works will also consider the year-round collection of gar- bage at the Lake, once a week. Eight tenders were received for the collection of garbage, ranging up to $12,000. They were R. Gimblett, $12,000; T.-H. Cun- ningham, $12,000; P. Boko, 12,- 000; W, Murphy, $11,560v pus $480; Sam Siblock, $10,800; Steve Siblock, $10,500; P. Wysotski, $9,795. The city property committee rec- ommended that the city engineer be asked to submit an estimate on the cost of burning garbage on a per ton basis and also an estimte of the cost for a board fence to enclose the present garbage uump On motion of Aldermen G. Har- man and R. McDonald of Cedar- dale, it was decided . to ask the Board of Works to prepare an esti- mate of the added cost of collec- tion of garbage during the winter at the Lake. At present garbage is collected once a week in the summer. There were 30 or 40 fam- ilies living there all winter that had no means of disposal of their garbage, as they could not put it in the dump nor in the lake, said Al- derman Harman. { WEATHERMAN } Milder and fair Is today's weather call; Spring's in the air, There's no doubt at ux. v LJ] * LJ Now that the rain and the floods have subsided at least temporarily, we have high hopes that today's pleasant sunshine will melt off a lot of the remaining snow and ice by peaceful means. Spring will be officially here in shree more days, and we would like to see Old Sol give it a good reception, But, one never knows about these things, and while the Weatherman says "Fair and Mild" today, he may per- force say, "Cloudy, with thunder- showers," before Thursday. Fair and milder, A man is usually as anxious to get away from a baby as a woman is to get to it.--Chicago Daily News. Friendless and Pale, haggard and suffering from loss of memory, a man well up in years and with the build of one who has at one time or another seen some of the brighter spots in life, wandered into the police sta- tion this morning, asked if he might communicate with some of his relatives who it was learned used to live in Whitby. The man was taken into the care of the po- lice department and Chief Friend assured him that everything woula be done to learn the whereabuots of some of these long lost rela- tives. The man, Charles Arnold, is 69 years of age. He is five foot nine inches tal and is of medium stat- lure, His hair has long turned Money Gone, Man Asks For Aid of Police white and hjs face is featured with a long drodping white moustache, He was attired when he came into the police stotion with a brown tweed suit of coarse material, wore brown army boots but no overcoat, and had on a brown fed- ora hat, Money gone, the old man said he was "out of luck" but had found his way back to Oshawa hoping that his sons, one of whose name is Floyd, and the other Gar- neit, would help him. He has no idea where either of them are and does not know where He came from. Meanwhile the old man 18 being kept by the police while authorities are looking for either of his two sons, LITTLE THEATRE IS T0 PRESENT PLAY 'OUTWARD BOUND' WILL BE GIVEN IN RO- TARY HALL APRIL 15, 16, 17 AND 18 Has Taken New York and London By Storm-- Plot Quite Novel In their coming production, which is the final one or tne sea- son, the Oshawa Little Theatre players are presenting one of the most talked of plays of the pres- ent theatrical season. 'Outward Bound," by Sutton Vane, took London by storm and when brought to New York created a sensation there which is quite unusual. Already four other Little Thea- tres in Ontario have presented or are presenting it and it is being produced in Toronto at the pres- ent time, Oshawa is to have ye opportuni- ty of seeing this extraordinary play on April 15, 16, 17 and 18th, put on by local talent directed by John Craig, and it is needless to say it will be well presented, as all the productions offered by the Oshawa Little Theatre this season have been well worthy of support, much more so than they have re- ceived, The story of the play provides the thrill that comes but once in an ordinary theatrical season. A strange company of shipmates mystified by a vaguely uppressive feeling of unreality, suddenly dis- cover that every last one of them is dead. Their ship, unmanuned and without lights, is gliding noigelessly across the River Styx, and when one of the characters in terror asks the sole attendant whether they are bound for heave en or hell, the answer is "Both! It's the same place yon see." As many plays mnowadays are written only for amusement those that have thought-provoking ma- terial in them cause much inter- ost. Such a play is ""Outward Bound," and {it is to be hoped that Rotary Hall will be well filled on each night of its presentation. The players are 'putting it on next month for four nignts instead of the usual three. IRISH CONGERT AT ST. GREGORY'S WAS SPLENDID AFFAIR Large Audience Attends An- nual Performance of Catho- lic School Students The Irish concert put on last night at St. Gregory's Hall, Simcoe street, proved a great success, many students of St. Gregory's School taking part. The hall was filled to capacity. " Each class in the school enter- tained in some manner and the lowest to the highest forms delight- ed the large audience by introduc- ing some form of entertainment which was especially Irish. Quaint costumes adorned the lit- tle girls and boys. One of the most striking of the pieces was "The new woman who lived in a shoe," which was played by the senior second class. The stage setting was very attractive and the players, about 25, did especially well in the pres- entation, The Irish decorations in the hall and the Irish musical ac- companiment to the selections of the different plays made the whole evening an Irish one, The program was as follows: "The Teddy Bears" by Junior First class; '""The Irish Haymakers," by the Senior First class, a recitation by Betty Marks, 'Mrs. Paxton's House Party," by the Junior Third class. This piece was exceptionally well rendered. The plot hinged up- on the losing of a will which meant recovering if found of a valuable old house, A party is staged in the house as a last memory of the old place and just as the affair is to break np, the will accidentally comes to light. "Reading the News," by the Jun- ior Fourth class, provided some merriment for the audience. The whole plot wound around the memn- bess of a certain family whose in- ability to correctly interpret the meaning of the current news items from a newspaper was quite hum- orous. "The Lephechauns," by the Sen- for Third class followed and proved to be quite mystic. The Lepre- chauns were a number of real elf- ins and danced and capered about in true Elfin style. "The Irish Priest," was played by the Senior Fourth class and was more oi a pageant than a play. Ip was well given and deserved con- siderable credit. C. Johns gave a monologue entitled "Bringing in' the Wood" and received merited applause. D. Quilty gave some expert violin selections and proved himself a master of the instrument in as far as playing old time dance mhsie was concerned. A piano duet hy Misses Dorothy Craddock and Blanche Lesniak was well done. The last number, a play in three scenes called "Camouflage" was participated in by eleven. The Ca- tholic Girls' Club were the spon- sors. of the play and presented it in fine style, Those who were see in the cast were Lorna Kennedy, Edith Grennon, Margarei Brady, Margaret Fair, Katherine Gorman, Special Committee Met To Consider Plans For Stimulating Industries May Organize a Company to Carry Out the Objects Which Were Outlined in the City of Oshawa Private Bill Pro- viding for the Creation of an Industrial Area--Result of Rejection of Private Bill By Committee of Ontario Legis'ature SEVERAL EVENTS PLANNED BY THE CANADIAN LEGION VIMY ANNIVERSARY TO BE CELEBRATED BY BANQUET Smoker and Concert Arrang- ed for the Evening of March 28 Plans for some interesting events to be staged by the Oshawa Branch of the Canadian Legion in the near future have been com- pleted by special committees of the branch, in keeping' with the aim of the local Legionnaires to conduct a program of intense activity for the benefit of the ex- service men of the community. Chief of these events is the Vimy anniversary banquet, which is to be held in the Rotary Hall here on the evening of April 9, which is the 12th anniversary of one of the greatest victories of the Cana- dian Corps in the world war. The plans for this event are very ambitious, and one of the chief officers of the Legion will be here from headquarters as the special speaker. The name of the speaker is not as yet available, but provincial headquarters have as- sured the commitiee in charge that an outstanding man will be sent to Oshawa to address the gather- ing. It is expected that Legion members from Whilby will be present at the banquet in large numbers, Following the outstanding suc- cess which was achieved by the last smoker and concert, the e1- tertainment committee has ar- ranged for another of these events, to be held in the rooms of the Oshawa Club on the evening of Thursday, March 28. Another splendid program is being ar- ranged for this night by the com- mi tee headed by George Walsh, and an invitation is extended to all ex-service men of the city and district to be present and enjoy the comradeship and good fellow- ship which is being revived in all Legion functions at the present time. Arrangements are being made for a special speaker for this occasion, and it is expected that it will be equally as success- ful as the last one, The membership of the branch is growing steadily, several new members having been admitted in the last week, and the member- ship campaign which is now under way is expected to add a great many more. Five teams have been organized * for the membership campaign, and they are canvassing ex-service men in all sections of the city with a view to enrolling them in the membership of the Legion. An encouraging feature is +#¢hat many former officers of the Canadian Corps are renewing their active interest in the Legion, and are becoming active members, At the smoker and concert to be held on March 28, it is expected that a large number of new members who have joined recently will 'be wel- comed into the ranks of the local branch. ) Bessie McDonald, Carmelite Com- merford, Adelene Duquet, Dorothy Hiel, Bernard Kinlen and Marian Normyle.

Although it was be- lieved the Private Bills committee would reject the Bill from infor- mation secured previous to the presentation of the Bill before the Committee, the ultimate result of the visit of the deputation from Oshawa to the parliament build- ings in Toronto was the recom- mendation of certain amendments by the committee whereby the Bonus Limitation Act would con- tain clauses permitting Oshawa and all other municipalities in On- tario to acquire {industrial areas, the sale or lease of which will be governed by clauses at present in the Bonus Limitation Act. The Chamber of Commerce therefore, is endeavoring to take the action necessary to put into action the needs of the city as they were expressed in the Osh- awa Industrial Act.
