The renovating of the building at Albert street and Olive avenue, is proceeding rapidly, and the com- pany has already placed an order for the necessary machinery for their machine shop which will commence operations in this build- ing.

Ag one entered the rirst floor from the street a charming impression was obtained. Beauti- ful flowers Easter lilies, roses, hy- drangias, palms and ferns, were arranged in bougets harmonizing with the display of handsome fur- niture, dining room suites, parlor suits and draperies. Nature's handiwork as found in the exquis- iteness of flowers vied with man's handiwork as expressed in furni- turew hich spoke of the craft of artisans. Everyone was made wel- come and was greeted with the cheery singing of the Hartz Moun- tain canaries which entered into the spirit of the occasion: as they swung from perches in dainty lit- tle cages. : Band Concert Proyided This afternoon: as hunareds of guests were being shown through the store, the Ontario Regimental Band which occupied a place of honor in the north-east corme: of the first floor, provided a splendid program of popular airs under the able direction of Bandmaster Thos. Dempsey. ~ When the band rest- ed the radio and tiny feather sing- ers took up the joyous strain. An extra staff of clerks was pres- ent to atend to the needs of the large throng and under their cap- able and courteous direction every person was extended the hospital- ity of the firm. A pleasant. iea- ture was introduced when each customer was presented with a souvenir in the form of a rose, the presentation . taking place on the second floor which was devotea to the display of rugs, bedroom suites and House furnishings. Tasty refreshments were served to the visitors in the basement floor, where tables had been ar- ranged displaying the store's china. The food was cooked on the com- pany's stoves. Another feature was the demonstration of house- hold 'utilities such as washing machines and vacuum cleaners. The anniversary celebration is being continued this evening and everyone is urged to attend.

Daniel Sunder- land Speaks 'on "The Trail of Life" Boys of the Tuxis and Trail Ranger groups of King street United Church, with their fathers, gathered at a Father and Son banquet in the church last even- ing. The speaker was Rev. Char- les Daniel, of Sunderland. "Instead of a Juvenile Court, what Oshawa needs is a city of fathers who will be real dads to their boys," the speaker declared. "In the juvenile courts all over the county, it is found that the boys who are misfits are boys whose fathers have thrown down their jobs of being companions to their boys, and have left them to try to start on life's journey with- out companionship and guidance." Speaking on "Hitting the Trail of Life," Rev. Mr, Sunderland ad- dressed the boys on the multitude of choices which they would have to make in a few years, including choices of a vocation. Before them would open many paths, leading to riches, fame, and pleasure, but for real success and the sincere praise of God and man, the speak- er advised them to take the trail of service, even though it might involve more sacrifice than the others. Their dads were their best friends, if they would confide in them, he told the boys. To the fathers, he entered a plea for com- panionship with the lads as they passed through the adolescent per- fod. C. H. Millard, leader of the Tuxis work in King Street Church, was chairman of the gathering, and Meredith Moffatt led in sing songs. The toast to the King was proposed by Bill Switzer; and to Our Dads by George Brown, re- sponded to by his.fahter, Richard Brown, Jack Chamberlain proposed the toast to The Strangers, which was responded to by George Churehill, and the toast to The Square was proposed by George Brown, responded to by E, Kie- faber. The Sunday School was toasted by Lloyd Wood, respond- ed to by S. Gummow, superinten- dent of the King Street Sunday School, and Albert Walker pro- posed the toast to The Church, to which Rev. C. E. Cragg, pastor of King street United Church, re- plied. The last toast ,to the Boys' Work Board and the Ontario Tuxis Boys' Parliament, was proposed by Stanley Harris and responded to by Clifford Baker, Oshawa's member in the Boys' Parliament.

JURY DELIBERATED FOR FIVE HOURS IN ADAMO CASE (Continued from Page 1) 'driver. He identified Adamo as the driver, There was another party in the truck, he sald. . Said He Would Pay After being assured by Adamo that he would pay the amount of damage to the Lycett car, the oc- cupants got in the first car and proceeded to Oshawa, Witness stated that while he was talking to Adamo, an odor of .liguor was discernible. Adamo, according to the witness, appeared excited, Another occupant of the Lycett car, John Staples, Sr., gave evi- dence that on the night in ques- tion, he had been at the wheel, and stated that he also saw the truck as it struck the car. Clifford Staples, son of John Staples, was driver of the car while it pursued the truck. He bore out in his evidence the facts already corrob- orated by the other two odccupants of the car. W. H. Moore was also called to the stand and gave minor evidence. Detective Sergeant Herbert Flintoff was the next witness, He described the operations of the police following their arrival at the scene of the accident. The night, he stated was cold and bright. Provincial Constable David Syl- vester of Belleville ; who took photographs of the Adamo truck, was next called to the stand. Photograph Produced A photograph was produced showing a dent in the front right hand fender of the truck. It was stated white powder was used to bring out the dent more clearly. The defence Counsel took advant- age of the evidence, claiming that the fender vas 'doctored' in order to gain an effect, The picture, he contended wgs not one of the car, therefore, as it, the car,, was after the accident. George Adamo, charged with manslaughter, and prominent fig- ure in the case since the death of Nathaniel Etcher, was called to testify in his own defence. Adamo stated he had lived in Canada 22 years, married and has eight chil- dren. He lives at Picton. He was engaged in the fruit business, buy- ing and selling apples. It was found necessary to en- gage the services of a court in- terpreter for Adamo who found difficulty in making the court un- derstand his evidence. Adamo then told of his actions while in Toronto. He admitted hav- ing a small glass of wine and a glass or two of ginger ale at the lace belonging to J. Adamo, his cousin. "Did you have any other liquor during the day," asked Mr, God- frey. "No, T didn't", answered Adamo. "Were there any other persons in the car when you went to go home?" "There were three persons in the car." ' Witness then said the third party who got in the car and drove for some distance on the highway, got out, and he and Adamo con- tinued on their way alone. Saw No Boy "Adamo, did you see any bw on the road at all?" " I never saw anybody." "Did this boy Welsh tell you had seen anybody?" *No." . he "Did he remark to you that a boy had been struck and might have been killed?" "No. 'The boy Welsh aad two coats, one over his right shoulder, and one over his head, while he lay back in the corner of ~ the truck," . Adamo declared. "I thought it/was eight or ten below zero." ve Adamo stated to the surprise of the court, that when the occupants of the Lycett car approached him and told him to stop, he thought they were burglars, and told them he would pay any damage he had done, but to let him go. "Did you tell Welsh not to say anything about the accident?" "No. 'The boy slept nearly all the way home." Mr. Wilson Recalled Mr. Wilson was récalled at the request of Mr. McKay, but vol- unteered no additional' important information. In his charge to the jury, Mr. Justice Rose stressed the serious- ness of the charge. "Everyone who is in charge of a motor vehicle, is under a legal duty to take reasonable precautions to ex- ercise reasonable care, If he does not take these precautioecs he is being unlawful and committing an unlawful act," His Lordship stat- ed. : His Lordship pointed out that the word "reasonable" 'was one which should be stressed comsider- ably. The crime of manslaughter, he said, must have about the neg- ligence something more than just negligence, something to indicate a disregard of the rights of others, which generally should be recog- nized in circumstances such as the case being dealt with." Welsh Positive "The only positive evidence of the accident was that of Welsh, who swears positively that he saw: Adamo strike the boy." 8 "You will nave to use the story of Welsh with caution," said His Lordship, calling attention to tle acuteness of the rowers of obsery- ation of Welsh while on the stand.

About fifty boys in the vicinity of Oshawa will be given a bushel of seed potatoes each, all of one var iety, and will compete for the high. est yield, best plot, etc., for which prizes will be awarded. In taking this action, the club is following a suggestion made by W. M. Croskery, agricultural: représea- tative for Ontario County. This procedure has been followed ros boys in the vicinity of Uxbridge by the Downtown Kiwanis Club of To ronto, which gave the boys the seed and then awarded prizes at a Ki- wanis Potato Fair. The boys all grew one variety, the Dooley, and were taught to grade their potatoes according to quality. This, said Mr. Croskery, was a valuable less son im sticking to one variety In stead of having a multiplicity of varieties grown in one locality, and the grading also would teach the boys how to best market Ontario potatoes to compete with those from Prince Edward Island and other places. While all the details have not been worked out, it is expected that the Board of Directors of the South Ontario Agricultural Socie- ty will be approached in regard to having a Kiwanis Boys' potato sec- tion at the Oshawa fair this fall The alternative would be to stage a Kiwanis Potato Fair. Arrange- ments are being left in the hanus of the agricultural committee of the local club and W. M. Croskery. At the meeting of the Kiwanis Club yesterday, Inspector Perry of the Income Tax Department spoke briefly regarding the work of his department. He stated that there were many cases where taxpayers, if they laid their cards on the ta- ble before the inspector could claim many legal deductions in their tax that they did not know of. The officials endeavored to be fair with the taxpayer, and to give him every proper consideration, Mr. Perry de- clared. They were pot trying to "trip up" an unwary taxpayer, but rather to help him make a correct return and give him a 50-50 deal. In the absence of President A. Parkhill, R. B. Smith' acted as chairman, club to hold a ladies' night during April, and also to have a Kiwanis Daddy Day on -April 5, when all the boys under the care of Kiwanis Daddies in the. city will be invit- ed to dinner with the club at a evening meeting, 3 NO OFFENCE MEANT #7 wonder if Professor Kidder meant anything by it?"
