Tribute to King George * V 'and in Prayers of ¢ Thanks for His Recovery to Health -- 'SPECIAL SERMONS BY ALL PASTORS Solidarity of Empire Under Reign of King George Stressed by Many of the Speakers Yesterday Churches of every denomination in this city joined yesterday in services of 'Thanksgiving for the recovery to Health of King George V. The ser- vices in Oshawa were held concur- rent with similar thanksgiving ser- vices throughout the British Empire, pursuant to proclamations of the British and Canadian parliaments sup- ported in this city by a proclama- tion issued on Saturday by Mayor Mitchell, Centre Street Church The special thanksgiving service in Centre street United church were held last evening, due to the com- munion service and reception of mem- bers in the morning. The service op- ened with the National Anthem, and special hymns for the occasion were sung. An anthem by the choir and 2 solo by R. E. Nicholson, of Whit- by, were appropriate to the service. In his sermon, Rev. W, P. Flet- ther referred to the appearance of Jesus to his disciples on the morn- ng after a night of gloom and dis- couragement. The thanksgiving ser- vices for the king, he said, were in a like manner rejoicing after a night of gloom, and so all lives in spiritual gloom could be assured of a Master standing near that was interest and caring for them. He referred to the solidarity: of the British Empire, whose. peoples had a strong opinion of the worth of their king's charact- er, Knox Presbyterian Church After such a service as was con- ducted at Knox church on Sunday forenoon, no one will question the loyalty of the local Presbyterians to the person of His Majesty King George V. of.Great Britain. The. service opened in time, honor- ed fashion, with the Doxology and Invocation, and soon with heart and voice the congregation were singing that grand old psalm the 145th to the tune of Duke St. "OQ Lord Thou art my God and King, Thee will IT magnify and praise, I will thee bless, and gladly sing, Unto they holy name always." After the reading of the Sacred Word, the minister engaged in pray- er, when in very appropriate lang- uage and thought he led his people in reverent thanksgiving not only for individual and congregational and community blessings, but also for the blessing of citizenship in the British "Empire and for the restoration of health and strength to our beloved ng. Mr. Munro's address was thought- ful, instructive andinspiring. In his 'introduction he made reference tp the Jove and loyalty of the people of (Continued on Page 6) "LUTHERAN CHURCH WILL ORGANIZE uly 18 Set For Meeting to Officially Adopt Constitution After evening worship at Grace Y.utheran church, the members re- mained behind, to decide upon the time of the meeting of the members when a Lutheran congregational con- stitution is to be adopted, and the congregation officially and legally or- ganized. In order, to make it pos- sible to give due publicity to the plan of organizing, it was deemed ad- visable 'not to hold the meeting in the immediate present. The sugges- tion that the meeting take place Thursday evening, July 18 at the pastor's study, was finally adopted. It was thought that this arrangement would give the Church Council ample time to call upon all the Lutherans in the city, with the purpose of invit- ing the men to become voters, and charter members of the congregation. Announcement was made by the pastor, that the Ladies' Aid had de- cided in the last meeting to sponsor the Sunday School picnic, which is dated for Saturday afternoon, July 20, to be held at Lakeview Park. While the picnic is primarily to be a Sun- day School picnic, it is hoped that many Lutheran families will also pack their picnic baskets, and enjoy a live- «ly afternoon with the young Luth- erans of the Sunday School. As early as June 15th there were over 3,000 resquests from U.S. citizens for particulars of the {forthcoming Canadian National Exhibition. Local Churches ORANGE LODGES OF OSHAWA PARADE T0 KING ST. CHURCH REV. C. E. CRAGG STRESSES PRINCIPLES ORANGE ORDER Declares Need for Greater Use of Bible and Church Attendance About 200 members of the Orange Lodges and the Loyal True Blue or- ganizations in this city held their annual church parade yesterday morning to King street United church. Rev. C, E. Cragg, pastor of the church, based his sermon on the subject "The Essence of Protestan- ism." "The Orange order is the most aggressive and progressive Order for the advancement of Protestantism to- day," said Rev. Mr. Cragg. He re- ferred to the glorious past of the Order and its development since Wil- liam of Orange raised the seige of Londonberry by the Battle of the Boyne on July 12, 1690, Three major principles of the Or- ange Order were outlined by the speaker, the open Bible, the principle of faith in Jesus Christ as the found- ation of the church, and that of tol- erance and freédom. The greatness of the British Em- pire lay in the fact that the laws and principles of the Mother coun- try were based upon these contained in the Bible, the speaker declared. He made a plea for a greater use of the Bible in 'the schools, churches and houses of parliament. "It is for the Orange order to lead the way in this," he said, "for the order itself is founded upon the teachings in the word of God." "A person cannot be intolerant and be a Protesetant," said Mr. Cragg, referring to the third principle of the Orange order. No other nation al- lowed such freedom of speech and conscience as the Protestant nation of Great Britain, he said, Protestants must be true to their faith, -he said declaring that it was a dangerous situation when only a- bout half of the Protestant people regularly attended church. "The Ro- man Catholics are making untold ef- forts to win Canada to their faith, and are using the press and politics and the establishment of nunneries and monasteries all over this Dom- inion in an effort to make Canada predominantly Catholic," he declared, "Are the Orangemen. going to be slackers in their allegiance to their faith? We must buckle on our ar- mour and see that the Protestant faith is made truly predominant in Canada," he said. ---------------------------------------- ROMANCE OF THE NEWSPAPER WORLD TOLD ROTARIANS GREGORY CLARK TELLS OF SPEED IN NEWS GATHERING Veterans From Christie St. Hospital Are Guests of Rotarians A humorous and entertaining ad- dress on the "Romance of the News- paper World" was given to the Osh- awa Rotary Club at its noon lunch- eon today by Gregory Clarke, of To- ronto. Mr. Clarke outlined largely by anecdote, some of the modern meth ods of gathering news and getting it to the reader. He illustrated how, with almost incredible speed, hapjsn- ings of the local city or one thous- ands of miles away were gathered and within a space of a very few minutes, edited, sent through the composing room, into the press room and made part of a newspaper, com= Jlete and illustrated by pictures. Drawing on his own experiences, Mz. Clarke told of how the story of an event in Colorado was in a Toronto newspaper office within three m= utes; a picture of an accident in To- ronto was printed and on sale in a newsstand 20 minutes ofter the ac- cident occurred; the use of aero- planes, fast motor launches, tong distance telephone, telegraph and other modern speed agencies were used in assembling the news of the world in one paper. Another angle of the newspaper profession stressed by Mr. Clarke was the service that a modern newspaper rendered to the public. The report- ers' were trained in a particularly hard and shrewd school, he said, to give a service that would not be giv- en by an ordinary civic servant. They were first on the scene of any hap- pening, and, rendered all kinds of service in locating survivors, and in many other ways that others could not do. Newspapers went to any length with their money in perforin- ing a service to the community, the service, of course, being also in their own interests. - Mr. Clarke was introduced by past president G.

Mundy Writes of Ex- periences on European Tour WELL ENTERTAINED Orchestra in the Austrian Capital Played "God Save The King" + In an interesting letter sent to friends in the city from Vienna, Aus- tria, C, M. Mundy, president of The Mundy Printing Company, who, along with Mrs. Mundy, is now on a trip through Europe "with a Canadian newspapermen's party, tells of some of his experiences on the trip so far. Several European countries have al- ready been visited, and Mr. Mundy writes of his trip as follows: Vienna, Austria, June 20, 1929 "We are having a wonderful time. It's most interesting, but the royal welcome which is the very finest and best, somewhat detracts from onr sightseeing. For example, in Paris we were entertained at the Cafe de la Madrid, the finest cafe in Paris, by the French government, and our party were mixed up at the tables with the nobility of France. On ny left was an Egyptian Princess and on my right Mdme, Pila, the wife of the Minister of Defence of France. This cafe is a most gorgeous place both inside and out, a favorite rend- ezvous of the Prince of Wales. 1 danced with some of the titled ladies of the country. In the evening we had dinner at the Inter-Allied Club, the most exclusive Club in Paris, of which General Foch was President. The present President, Jules Junbu- mo, who was the French Ambassador to Germany when war broke out, now a very old man, walked arm in arm with me all through the gardens. "This morning we were individually received by the Premier of Austria at the Parliament buildings. We are to attend a luncheon at one o'clock, just in a few minutes, by the Press Association of Vienna, and tonight we are to meet and be guests at din- ner of the President and Government of Austria, and tomorrow a luncheon by the Mayor and City officials of Vienna. "I never saw or heard of such hos- pitality as the Austrians are ex- tending to us. Just think, at a din- ner given us by the Government af- ter a toast to us as their guests, the orchestra played 'God Save the King.' We had to refuse an offer from the Government to take our whole party by planes to Budapest. "We leave for Prague this evening. The sleeping cars here are marvels of luxury and comfort. "C. M. MUNDY" June 21, 1929 "Had dinner in Government House last night in room where the dec- laration of war was made. Sat at the table with Sir Eric Phipps, British Ambassador to Austria. Nearly all other members of the Government present, This morning at 10.30 we are to meet the President. IMPERIAL OPTICAL C0.

The delegates have been arriving during the week-end, and they were given a. wonderful welcome by the legion branch of this city, and by the citizens as a whole. The legion pipe band was on duty all day yesterday providing its own particular style of music for the visitors.

IS ELD SATURDAY Overcast Sky Detracts' Some- | ~ what from Enjoyment of the Day BASEBALL FEATURE Many Teams Enter Tourna- ment--Fine Program of Races Is Held The annual 'employees picnic of Fittings, Ltd., was held at Lake- view Park on Saturday, the day which the employees had looked forward to so eagerly was disap- pointing as regards weather condi- tions, for the sky was overcast, and a drizzling rain made it ex- tremely difficult for the sports to be held successfully. The factory stopped work at eleven in the morning, and in the neighbourhood of one o'clock the picnickers began to move lake- wards, Children under twelve years of age were supplied with tickets with which they might ob- tain two balloons, two .amuse- ments, and two refreshments. The rest of the employees and their de- pendents were furnished with two refreshment tickets. Those who could not supply their own trans- portation were allowed street car tickets. Quite a big baseball draw was made, and five innings games were played between teams bearing the namse of big league organizations. The "Bears", and the "Canadians" played at 1 o'clock. The Nationals and the Red Sox also played at this time on another diamond. Other teams playing were: Am- ericans vs. Pirates, Giants vs. Sen- ators, and Yanks vs. Leafs. The winners of the different games were matched until the Nationals and the Canadians became final- ists, and met in a nine innings game. After an interesting en- counter hte Canadians proved vic- torious, by a score of 24 to 9. . A special booth was erected on the picnic gounds so that the em- ployees might check lunches, par- cels, etc. Another booth supplied refreshments, As was to be ex- pected, it was kept busy for the greater part of the afternoon and evening. Owing to the rain the grass be- came sticky and greasy. Because of this, one or two minor accidents were reported. During the afternoon music was supplied by the Citizens' Band and the Ukranian Orchestra, The races were held about four o'clock, but no list was kept of the prize winners. The prizes for the majority of the races were pre- sented directly after the events were concluded, but the awards of- fered for the more important con- tests, which were made possible by the generosity of different members of the firm, were pre- sented from the bandstand at 8 o'clock, The mantel clock, silver tea service, and watch, donated re; spectively by Messrs. A. 'G, Storie, Fred Storie, and Stewart Storie, were held over for competition until Monday night, due to the bad weather, ' A novel contest was the one made possible by G. Hammond. He offered a five-dollar gold piece to the employee with the largest family under 18 on the picnic J grounds. Leo. Keller won this prize, with eight children. The horseshoe contest was won by H. Patfield, with Ed. Goodman taking second place. The winning team in. the relay. race was com- posed of W. Moncur, W. Jackson, G. Wotton, W., Campbell. Three events are yet to be held, the tug of war, light and heavy; men's hundred yards, and men's wheelbarrow race. These will be held on Monday night. The committee in charge of af- fairs was: E, Goodman, chairman; M. Greentree, Treasurer; A. Green- field, Secretary; W. Moncur, Sports Committe¢; G. Gummow, grounds committee; C.

Every one present behaved themselves well with the exception of the weather- man, who, probably thinking that the country needed rain, decided to "let her come" but it must be admitted that he did his best to keep it off until after all the games and supper had been completed.

H. Beattie between nine and 10.30 o'clock last night and were successful in getting away with several dollars in change. The marauders went about their job in a rather haphazard manner, how- ever, for they failed to take with them two gold watches which were laying on top of the dressing tabiw where they found the silver. They also neglected a purse with about seven dollars in which was repus- ing within a few inches of the bag containing the silver. The theft has been the second in the same house within a year, Mr. Beattie told The Times this morn- ing: Entry to the apartment was gained by the thieves taking out the screens and putting the win- dow as high as it might go. After searching the room, Mr. Beattie's bedroom, the thieves en- tered thy room where two small children were sleeping but appar- ently they were afraid of waking them, and left the house with but littl, loot. Mr. and Mrs. Beattie were in another room at the time and declared they heard no noise to reveal the presence of the maraud- ers. .
