The guest soloists for the even- ing will be Mrs. E. F. Farrow, of this city and Mrs. Geo. Foster, of Belleville, who will give two duets. These ladies are well known here. They have sung many times in Osh- awa. The band is giving two heavy sel- ections of the best class of music "Chu Chin Chow" by Norton and "Maid of the Mountain" by Fraser- Simson. Possibly the most popular ieces will be the concert valse, "Ill acio" which has been heard several times over the radio this past season and the descriptive number "Bull in a China Shop" by Holmes, which has also been over the radio and is quite a favorite. The march "Seraphine" that opens the program is one of the regular street marches that will be heard on the streets this season, and and Hand has a book of 16 new mar- ches of the same class that will be used for all street work. ese c---- Coming Events SQUARE AND ROUND DANCING at Barnhart"s Pavilion every Thursday and Saturday night.

Mangan for the Defence - Convicted on a charge of selling liquor, Edward Hoiak, 422 Prospect Avenue was sentenced by Magistrate Hind in police court yesterday to six months in jail. Hoiak was de- fended by J. P. Mangan, J.A. Mc- Gibbon acting for the crown. The case has evoked considerable inter- est in the court and a large number of witnesses were called to the stand. The 'case this morning was a con- tinuation of the case adjourned some time ago, and when Hoiak first ap- peared to answer to the charge. PREDICTS MEN WILL GROW HANDSOMER Philadelpjhia. -- Peering a few thousand years into the fu- ture, Dr. Ales Hrdlicka, noted an- thropologist, in an address before the American Philosophical Soci- ety predicted that man would live longer and grow handsomer. He based his forecast on an ex- haustive study of man's past and present. "Man will have a longer life, and an easier one. He will be taller. Increased size will not, however, tend toward what we would can gi antism," Dr. Hrdlicka said. The greatest danger to contiu- ued advance of the human race, in Dr. Hrdlicka's opinion, lies in the birth-rate in families of the most intellectual type. ». "The cause is not understood but unless some adaptation or compro- mise becomes manifest, it. will mean that the talents and geniuses must keep on rising from the low- er strata. Already the birth-rate of the 'torch-bearers' is unsatisfac- tory," he said. - MAY HEAT CITY BY WIRELESS Wireless waves sent from the Eiffel Tower may eventually heat the -en- tire city of Paris, according to French' electrical engineers who are studying the. system being used in Germany, According to M. Jacques Risler, who has just returned' .from Germany, heating plants there are being operated by wireless waves, and, although the wireless heating of houses is still in the experimental stage, the feasibility of it has been definitely, established. In the tests two posts were set up in the labora- tory, about 30 feet apart. The send- ing post sent out from 400 to 500-volt current waves of a length of from two to three metres. Heat. is pro- duced by merely imposing on the re- ceiving-post circuit a filament in a vacuum, which is raised to an incan- descent state. Risler says the receiv- Latest Financial News || WHAWAS OLDEST RESIDENT DIES AT AGE OF 102 YEARS Mrs. William Dineen Passed Away Yesterday at Her Home, Celina Street HERE 82 YEARS Leaves 24 Descendants, In- cluding 6 Grandchildren, 15 Great-grandchildren Mrs. William Dineen, 271 Celina Street, this city, died at her home yesterday afternoon after having been in ill health for some time, at the age of 102 years. Mrs. Dineen, who was the old- est resident of Oshawa and the sur- rounding district, came to Canada from Ireland with her parents in 1844, settling in Newcastle, Ont. The family in 1847 moved from that place to Oshawa where was to be the nucleus of one of the most respectable and widely-known families. Oshawa was then known by the name of Skea's Corners. Mrs. Dineen's birthplace was Arm- agh, County Cavan, Ireland, and her family name. was Kernan. The same year that the family settled here Miss Kernan was unit- ed in marriage to William Dineen, also a native of Ireland. Mr. Din- een came to Canada in 1842 from Macroon Parish, about 20 miles from the City of Cork. He died Ap- ril 1, 1899. To this union there were born 11 children, eight of whom reached manhood and womanhood. There are left two sons, John and Jerry, of Idaho Falls, and one daughter, Annie, Mrs, Timothy Sheridan, of Oshawa. The other two brothers, Frank and Dinney, passed away some time ago, as have also three sisters, Mary, Mrs. J. Sprake, for- merly of Deland, Fla.; Catherine, Mrs. William Cushings, at Detroit; and Elizabeth, formerly of Detroit. After their marriage in 1847 Mr, and Mrs. Dineen lived with Mr, Din- een's stepfather, Dennis Riordan, (Continued on Page 10) SCOTTISH RITE HOLDS SPLENDID SOCIAL EVENING About 60 Couples Meet To Enjoy Fine Program of Dance Music The Scottish Rite Club of Osha- wa last night held an At Home at the Masonic Temple on Center street when about 60 couples gath- ered to have a real good time. George Hart, president, and Alex. Storie, master of ceremonies, con- ducted the. evening's, program in splendid stye. The decorations which were put up under the sup- ervision of Joseph Ward received special commendation and merited in every sense the high words of praise given them. Following refreshments at 11 o'clock dancing was the order of events, music being provided by Barnhart's orchestra. Several lucky prizes were award- ed, among these being a lucky number prize which went to Mrs, W. J. Abernethy of Campbeliford and a lucky number dance to Mrs. J. Taber of Oshawa. EXTEND SEASON ON BASS, MUSKALONGE Fishing From Boats Prohib- ited in Four Counties in . Extension of the open season on bass, muskalonge and salmon trout in all Ontario, and the prohibition of all fishing from boats or other floating objects between July 1 and Oct. 15, in the counties of Victoria, Peterboro, Northumberland and Dur- ham, and the waters of the Trent ri- ver, are some of the new Ontario fi- shing regulations which come into force with the next issue of the Ca- nada Gazette. The regulations wesre passed by the fish and game committee at the last session of the Ontario legislature and arc now ratified by the federal department. The bass and muskalonge open sea- son is made from July 1 to Oct. 15, instead of from July 1 to Sept. 30, as it has been done herctofore. The salmon trout open season, in inlana waters, is extended from Oct. 15 10 Nov. 15, in Southern Ontario, and from Oct. 15 to Oct. 25, in New Ou- tario, This last regulation on salmon trout does not apply to fishing in the great lakes, upon which there is no closed season for this fish. MUSIC CLUB ANNUAL MEETING _ The annual meeting of the Osh- awa Music Study Club, which is being held in the Rotary Hall at 8 p.m., on Monday evening, prom- ises 'to be an enjoyable and inter- esting event. The business of the meeting and election. of officers for the next year. will be pre- ceded by an excellent musical pro- gram As this is the last meeting of the 1928-1929 season, as well ing posts can easily be installed in homes to become electrical radiators. as being the annual meeting, a large attendance is anticipated. Citizens Respond More than a score of Oshawa's fair citizenry -in the. uniform of "Salvation Lassies" indulged in a mild form of banditry this morn- ing, beginning their operations with the dawn, when they held up hundreds of shoppers and workers to extract from them a contribu- tion to the Salvation Army Self Denial Fund. By noon it was es- timated that the receipts were highly satisfactory and the smiling sales ladies stuck to their posts well into the afternoon. Willingly To the Salvation Army's Appeal Asked if their task was an easy one two young ladies replied that there was nothing to it at all, "The gentlemen are really. quite. jolly and sometimes by more than one" they said. 'Sometimes, however, they get peeved when we ask them to buy a third." The whole task of swelling the fund is undertaktn with a spirit of pleasure the little ladies and even little boys. being glad to be able to give what service they can to the Salvation Army, the motto of which is to help others. Paris. -- In a quiet street of aristocratic Auteuil dis- trict stands a big house, little known to tourists or even to Par- isians, It could be called a muse- um, but one closed to the public. Those who live in its neighbor- hood have named it "The morgue of artistic works." Its official ap- pellation is "Storehouse for Works of Art of the own of Paris" Few people have seen its con- tents. The doorkeeper forbids the entrance of the "morgue" to any visitors. He requires a spec- fal permit of the Beaux Arts ad- ministration. But the Beaux Arts administration refuses to issue any permitg and gives no explanation for its refusal. The s.ore house is said to be filled with thousands of pictures, etchings, drawings and statues. The rooms are packed to the ceiling with "works of art," PARIS MAINTAINS ART MUSEUM BARRED TO PUBLIC INSPECTION and even in the court-yard big bronze figures representing va:w ous animals haye been placed. They could scarcely, however, be called. chef d'oeuvres and tue Beaux Arts are probably wise uo hide 'them from the public. Most of them are unsuccessful works of unfortunate artists who have had no luck at the salon exhibitions. The Paris municipality disposes of a credit of 450,000 francs a year to adorn with paintings and carv- ings, its own town walls, schools and other official buildings, It uses this credit generously to help young artists who cannot sell their pictures. But when these pictures have been paid for they usually prove too bad to be hung even in the classrooms of a municipal school. And they go to the "morgue," where they are piled up in dark rooms which no one: will ever visit. LIGHT ERUPTIONS CAUSE. MAGNETIC STORMS 5 REPORT New Theory Advanced For currence of Storms May Be "Northern Lights" Washington. -- Periodic tions. of great quantities of ultra-violet light from the sun were advanced today in a theory to account for the occurrence of mag- netic storms, popularly known as the "northern lights." These stormis occur at times where there is an unusual display of the lights, causing them to spread far down into temperate latitudes, to cripple radio com- munication, ' paralyze telegraph lines and make compass needles dance. The rays were described as trav- eling ninety-two million miles to the earth in eight minutes. They were pictured as shooting forward like lava from a volcano and wing- ing at incredible speed to grip the entire world at the same instant. Dr. H. B. Maris and Dr. E. O. Hulburt of the naval research. ia- boratory presented the findings in a paper before the National Aca- demy of Sciences. What causes the eruption of such energy from the sun is not known. Scientists do. know that magnetic storms occur in a number varying in an 1l-year cycle. During a maximum year in this period there are roughly 80 storms, in a minimum year, between 10 and 20. Why there should be uu 11-year eycle of sun activity like- wise is not known. Dr. Maris and Dr. Hulburt ar rived at their theory indirectly by studying the behavior of comets scattered through the years 1848 to 1927. Ultra-violet light, they found, is absorbed in part by dark comets, moving in space, making them vis- ible on earth. Records show that magnetic storms generally occurr- ed preceding the sighting of comets. The scientists concluded that the same energy which lights up the comets also causes the storms. Hurtling from the sun through space, the light registers its first erup- earth's atmosphere 100 miles above the ground. At this height, in an even blan- ket around the world, stretches « layer of particles. This layer forms the "mirror" by which it is thought radio waves are reflected and spread over the earth. The theory is that the ultra- vio- let eruption, striking the mirror, sets up heavy winds, which ruin the even layer and, like a glassy lake stirred into waves, breaks up the reflecting surface. Radio commun- ication'then, however, is impossible. Telegraph lines are paralyzed by electrical currents induced in the wires by the light. = The electric force is so great that compass nee- dles are deflected in spite of the earth's great magnetic fields. Dis- turbances causing the Northern Lights are created. effect on the upper reaches of the I GHINESE AVIATORS BOMB TROOPS AND WIRELESS STATION British Gunboat Evacuates Women From Samshui Canton, China, May 18.--Canton- ese aviators returned today from Wuchow, on the Kwangsi border where they bombed the Kwangsi wireless station and Kwangsi mili- tary headquarters. They dropped three 100 pound bombs on the wire- less station and five bombs on the military headquarters, inflicting heavy damages. The British gunboat Moorhen ar- rived here from Samshui with some English women who had evacuated their homes there. They were en route to Canton as they ran aground in the Sikiang, 15 miles west of Canton. : Fighting at Samshui apparently was more strenuous today as ar- tillery fire was audible in Canton. DUKE OF YORK ISSUES APPEAL Cricket Still Remains Most Truly English of Sports London. --The has commenced. Throughont the land adherents to the na- tional summer game are wielding the willow with renewed vigor af- ter a winter of idleness. While many young then transfer their affection to lawn tennis or golf when they leave school, crick- et still remains the most truly Eng- lish of all English summer sports and its following is restricted to no particular class, From the leisur- ed gentleman who plays as a pure amateur down to the small boy who sells papers on the street cor ner after school time, cricket.is the be-all and end-all during the sum- mer months. But in the East End, in the back streets where the sun seldom man- ages to get through the smoky pall, the only parental.recognition of the game is its premature close with "Nah, them, Ernie, stop that play- ing and come in for yer tea." These are the youngsters for whom the Duke of York, as presi- dent of the National Flying Fields Association, appeals for funds for obtaining green fields in which they can play. But the youngsters do not seem to worry. While they will never develop into cricketers of the cflibre of Jack Hobbs or the ever to be remembered Dr. W. G. Grace, between spells of lying low after breaking a window and dodging out of the way of ubiqui- tous: policemen, they keep smiling and certainly. obtain a great deal of pleasure from England's nation- al summer game. ; cricket season New York,--A grimy, dustladen oil painting discovered by a woman artist among. a lot of crockery in a Fourth Avenue room, was declar- cd recently to be an old Italian mas- terpiece worth thousands of dollars. The painting,' entitled = "Suzanna and the Elders," caught the attention of Mrs, Isabelle M. Ludlow, a Can- adian; who studied art in Boston and who happened to visit the establish- : $225 ment. Although she could not spare 225, the price set by Mrs. R. Levan, proprietor, she induced Mrs. Levan to have the work appraised. Dr. O. Muller, art expert of the OLD ITALIAN MASTERPIECE FOUND IN NEW YORK AUCTION ROOM Anderson Galleries, watched the can- vas being scrubbed clear of its accu- mulation of dirt and then said: "The heads of the elders in this painting suggest the great master Correggio by their simplicity. The picture is, in my opinion, the work of Francessco Maria Rondeni, of Parma, 1505-1548, a pupil of Correggio." Mrs. Levan a short time later. re- fused an offer of $8,000 made by two agents of an art dealer. She said she had bought the picture from Mrs. Maurites Leefson, whose late husband a Landsdowne, Pa. music teacher, in- herited it from an. Italian grand- father. . : LEGION CHARTER | WAS PRESENTED BROCK.

SCHOOL CHILDREN INESSAY CONTEST trict Win Awards for Safety Essays Four children of this district, including' three from Newcastle schools were successful in winmug prizes in the essay contest conduct- ed by the Just Kids Safety Club, under the auspices of the Toronto Globe. Several thousand essays were entered in the competition, One of the $5 third prizes was awarded to Evelyn Allin, aged 10, of Newcastle whose teacher was 'l'. A. Rodger. Prizes of $1 each were awarded to Herbert Ander- son, aged 12, of the junior fourtn grade in Newcastle public school, Billy Brunt, aged 13, in the same grade in this school and to Bea- trice M.

Lavery, to; Four Children of This: Dis- delivery routes in this city with the object in view of inaugurating.com- plete twice daily carrier service was announced by F. T. Mathison, post- master, to now be in the course of' completion. It has been the hope of the postal department in Osh- awa for many months to provide this service, Mr. Mathison stated to The Times, but on account ofthe, limited number of carriers and the: comparative resrictions of the routes, this has been impossible, "It has come to the time, how=- ever," he said, "when Oshawa f{s becoming sufficiently large enough for complete carrier service twice daily, and for this reason it has been necessary to break up a num- ber of walks in the east and north east due to overcrowding and: es- tablish two new routes." g Lack of Interest A drawback to the system that has been a cause of worry to. the post office officials is the apparent lack of interest on the. parts of some of the Gibbons street residents to adequately provide for the re- ception of mail at their homes, Un- til this has been done to the satis- faction of the department, no ser- vice will be inaugurated in that district, Mr, Mathison said. The fact that Gibbons street residemts generally have failed to comply with regulations also holds up the' inauguration of twice daily sere vice in the King street 'west district, which will 'be "operated: from the same routes as the Gibbon street district. Requirements - Mr. Mathison points out that the correct house numbers have in a majority of cases been placed on the homes in the disputed district, but there are now nine cases outstand- ing. Ninety per cent of the homes are without convenient: majl boxes. It is impossible to start: the service until these two matters are fixed, and fixed permanently, the post- master said. y New Routes ; The two new routes 'which - will be commenced as soon as details are completed, are located east or Ritson road, and north and east of Ritson road: They are the direct result of the congestion caused by enlarged routes in the east end of the city. ; ' Route Number 13 will be compos= ed of the following streets: Oshawa Boulevard, Roxborough Avenue, Colborne street east, Elgin street east, Richmond street east, Alice street east, Patricia street, King street east of Ritson, Young street, Rowe street, Athol street east ot Ritson, Arthur street east of Rit- son, Eulalie Avenue, Ritson road south, from King to Eulalie, Route Number 14 will consist or: Part of Alice street, Ritson road, north 'of Alice street, Haig street, French street, part of Division:St., north of Alice, Jarvis street, Leslie street, Kingsdale avenue, Wood street, Mary street from Wood 'to Aberdeen, and Rosedale avenue, *. .The inauguration of these two routes will provide better service in the north east and east section of the city, whereas there were 13 complete routes in the city before, there will now be 14. The naw routes will take in approximately 700 homes. : Bo ) CARNWITH---At thd Oshawa General Hospital, on Tuesday, May 14th, 1929, to Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Carnwith.
