DYSON HAGUE, TORONTO, ADDRESSES BIBLE SOCIETY A. W. Beall Elected Presi dent and A. G. Browning Secretary . (By Staff Reporter) 'Whitby, Mar. 22.--"There is only one antitoxin to remedy the under- mining forces of indecent literature and books which are promulgated for advancement of atheism, and that is the reading of the Bible," Rev. Dr. Dyson Hague, rector -of the Church of the Epiphany, Tor- onto, stated in the course of his address before the annual meeting of the Whitby branch of the Can- ada Bibles Society held in the Bap- tist Church, last night. The speak- er deplored the tendency to neglect the Scriptures in the home life of the nation. Lack of respect to par- ental control on the part of the younger generation he considered was the direct result of this ne- glect. The Bible commanded that children obey their parents. _ Referring to the foundation of the' British and Foreign Bible So- clety which occurred 125 years ago, Dr. Hague traced its develop- ment tothe present day and point- ed out the splendid achievements of the organization. ranslations of the Scriptures had been made in 600 different languages and the Canadian branc halone had distri- buted 4,000,000 copies since its in- ception. He showed that the Bible had become a great force for Cana dianization and Christianization for through the medium of colpor- teurs a copy was presented to eacn immigrant entering the country, printed in the immigrant's native tongue and in English, Dr. Hague, who is a keen Bible student, marvelled at the beauty of the literature of this old book, The writers had been inspired of God ' "The Whitby Daily Times | Advertising, subscriptions and will be received at the Whitby Office, Dundas Street, pext the post office.

Mss Aldworth takes the role of Portia. and the universal appeal of the Scriptures lay in the fact that they were the Word of God. The speak- er admitted that the Bible was au old book and that it had been writ- ten by members of a narrow, pre- judiced race but where else he ask- ed could one find a book with such an appeal which held interest for little children and great scholars alike. .

THUNDER, RAIN, MARK FIRST DAY OF SPRING (By Staff Deporter) Whitby, Mar. 22.--Whitby was visited by a heavy shower last night, accompanied by a severe el- ectrical storm. The rain fell in torrents and storm drains and sewers were severely taxed in car- rying away the surplus water, Al- though the lightning seemed to be quite close and the thunderclaps particularly loud no damage was reported locally. On several occa- sions street lights and house lights 'were dimmed but the hydro service was never interrupted. The storm apparently emphasized the fact that yesterday was the first any of spring.

As for bogus earls the no- tion is incredible. So in the name of all lovers of old tradition of ro- mance we bid the tenth Earl of Eg- mont welcome to the home of his fathers."

The announcement here, given out by General Francisco Borquez, did not make known details of the re- ported attack on Mazatlan or its out- come. Borquez also announced that headquarters had received wireless from American vessels "in the Maz- atlan harbor sa; saying that the federal general, Jaime Carrillo, who was en- trenched in the city with 2,000 sol diers, was "willing to surrender the city to the attackers."

Naval Officers Jailed Mexico City, Mar, 22--Six of the highest officers of the Mexican navy were lodged in thé Santiago Tlalte- lolco Prison heré\ today to await court martial in connection with their handling of the Atlantic fleet during the revolt at Vera Cruz.

Mr. Macaulay introduced his bill some weeks ago, at which time it was explained at length. It proposes, in brief, that when a judgment of more than $50 damage in a traffic accident is unsatisfied for more than sixty days, the Registrar of Motor Vehic- les may cancel the permit and license of every vehicle owned by the debt- or. In other words, if a driver who is in an accident does not pay up the damages of that accident in an amount over $50, he will be refused the right to drive a car until the damages are paid, Ban "Rambling Wrecks" Mr. Macaulay believes 'that this will keep the "rambling wrecks" off the road, and will safeguard the pub- lic aaginst the use of old cars, which may do extensive damage, and may not be even worth a portion of the damage done. Liberal Leader Sinclair stated that he couldn't see how this legislation was going to prevent'a man putting a ramshackle car on the road. Colonel Price wondered how Mr. Sinclair would get at the problem. The Lib- eral Leader said that there were suggestions that could be considered.

NOBLEMAN FOUND MURDERED IN HOME Son of the Dead Count is Arrested on Suspicion Jannowitz, Silesia, Mar. .2.-- Count Christian French Stolberg Wernigerode, 27-year-old scion of a wealthy family with ramifications with many European courts, has been arrested on suspicion of mur- dering his father, Count Eberhard. The body of the older mon was found late Monday night seated on a sofa with part of the head blown away by a bullet fired apparently from behind him witr rifle taken from a nearby gun-rack. The son had been alone with his father ai- ter the ladies of the house retired. He told police that he had been knocked unconscious in the corr- dor by unknown persons, of whom the police were unable to find any trace. His evidence became so con- flicting that he was arrested, al- though no motive has been discov- ered. The victim was 56 years of age, and the father of nine children, of whom the youngest is only eight. The affair has caused a sensation in the countryside because of the prominence of the family and the personal local popularity of the dead eount.

CANADIAN CLUBS | SPRING ARRIVES HEAR ADDRESSES ON LEAGUE OF NATIONS| Grove Smith, of Ottawa, Speaks to Women's and Men's Clubs (By tSaff Reporter) Bowmanville, Mar. 21. -- The March meeting of the Womens Canadian Club was held in St. Paul's lecture room on Wednesday afternoon. There was a good at- tendance of members and the President, Mrs. (Dr.) Clarke Bell, presided. After the singing of the | National Anthem and reading of | the minutes of the last meeting by the secretary, Mrs. J. H, H. Jury, tea was served under convenership of Mrs. (Dr.) G. E. Reaman. The speaker was Grove Smith of Ottawa, who was. intorduced by Mrs, Bell. Taking as his subject "At the World's Crossroads," Mr, Smith gave a most interesting talk on what womeu Jould do in world affairs. He spoke of the work of the League of Nations, in the humanitarian and social activ- ities of which women would have greater influence than men. Mr. Smith urged the women to have a broader outlook on life, to get be- yond the family and small social circle, as never in the world's his- tory were there such opportunities as were presented at the present time for helping others. Mr. Smith closed hi address by saying that the secret of a happy life was ser- vice; that we never benefitted our- selves until" we benefitted others. In the evening Mr. Smith spoke at the Mns' Canadian Club which took th form of ladies' night with a banquet at the Balmoral hotel. Over a hundred sat down to din- ner and after the president, Dr. J. C. Devitt, proposed the toast to the King, he introduced Mr, Smith. The speaker's subject for the ev- ening was Modern Tendency in World Affairs." Again Mr, Smith based his re- marks on the League of Nations, going back to its formation in 1919 and telling in a very interest- ing manner the work that had been carried on. As one instance of waht it had done to maintain peace he told of a period before the League was formed, of 23 years in which there were 17 major wars. Agrinst this," Mr. Smith cited sev- eral instances where a crisis had arisen. between nations would undoubtedly have resulted in war had it not been for the inter- ference of the League of Nations. Many other illustrations of what the League has done to maintain peace were also given. At the conclusion of the address Principal Morrison of the High School, in an able manner tendered the thanks of the Canadlan Club to Mr. Smith for the interesting and instructive talk given, the mo- tion being seconded by Mayor El- liott. The meting closed with the singing of "O Canada." WORSE WITHOUT IT A colonel's wife made up rather too lavishly. One day she came into the room where her husband--a mili- tary martinet was writing. Looking up at her for a moment, he said in his best orderly-room manner-- "Woman, go and wash your face." This she did and returned to the room. The colonel looked .at her again, then thundered out-- "For heaven's sake, woman, go and put it on again."
