The Shawnee was defenseless - against the attack. Following the broadside, the 145 hailed the Shawnee,. asking "what ship is that?" "Well, you should know," replied Captain McLeod, | The coastguard craft examined the Shawnee with her searchlight and signalled to another coastguard boat, the Gresham, saying repeated- ly, according to the Shawnee's wire- less operator, "come quick." The Gresham replied: "Have all steam on and are making all speed that we can." The Shawnee went out toward the sea, increasing her speed from ten to twelve knots, Four hours later the 145 was relieved by the Gresham, which, in turn, was relieved by an- other "boaf, a 125-footer, on Satur- day noon: The Shawnee have to go on Saturday morning to repair her pump, ~ She left her consort behind on Saturday evening and arrived here without further incident. The Shawnee's crew of six said there might easily have been loss of life had the third shell entered the engine room or forecastle.

Telephones--Office, 687; REPRESENTATIVE--B, HERBERT MORTLOCK § TALKING PICTURES AT ROYAL THEATRE IN BOMANVILE Building Has Been Re-mod- elled and New Equipment Installed An event that has been patiently ville for the past three months will take place on Monday next when the Royal Theatre opens its portals to the public for the first time since June 30th. Citizens will hard- ly: recognize the old interior after its renovation, The theatre from the entrance to the silver sheet has put on a new aspect that has total- ly' changed the appearance. The entrance has now in place of the open front, swinging French doors that lead into the vestibule where the ticket office will be located. From here one has to pass through another door to get to the auditor- jum which has an open archway into the main hall, The lighting system has been changed almost in its entirety and in place of the little Japanese lanterns that used to be a feature of the old building there has been installed the lat- est and smartest of" wall fixtures. The ceiling instead of the plain cream colored decoration, is now painted in a three-tone effect that s very pleasing to the eye. The walls are papered instead of painted and has a four foot base done in alabastine with a mottled effect. The heating is based on the latest that is used in the big theatres of Toronto with all the radiators hidden in a recess near the screen and heat circulated by a new process that is a novelty to this town. The north end of the theatre has been added to fifteen feet, which will not increase the seating capacity, owing to the am- ount of space used in the front for offices and ladies' and gentlemen's conveniences. A new screen has been set in position and adds great- y to the appearance of that end of the building. The most interesting announce- ment has been left to the last and of picture fans, the installation of talkie equipment of the 'latest de- sign and perfection. Mr: Ross, the manager of the, theatre has viewed in the past few months practically all the makes of the latest equip- ment and has chosen that which will be best adapted to the local play house. The first picture to be shown will be an all talkie special, "The Home Towners," which has played to crowded houses wherever it has been shown. The work that has been done on the theatre hus been in charge of T. E. Flaxman, a local contractor who had the con- tract for the new building at the Boys' Trailing School that was er- ected this summer. The renovated edifice is a credit not only to the men in charge of the reconstruction but the town also. ARRANGEMENTS FOR FALL FAIR AT TRAINING SCHOOL Premier Ferguson to Form- ally Open the New Gymnasium Arrangements for the third an- nual fair of the Boys' Training School which is scheduled to take place next Tuesday, are now gom- pleted and the event should prove of great interest to local people. The two main events will be the official opening by the Right Hon- orable G. Howard Ferguson, Prime Minister of the Province of Ontario, and the presentation to the school of the new gymnasium by the Ro- tary Clubs of the Province, The word done by the boys and show- ing typically the splendid training they receive will be on view and as there is no charge for admission there should be a large crowd on hand to witness the other events that are arranged. The Oshawa Citizens' Band will be on hand to provide musio. - This school is under the supervi- sion of the Ontario Government and is run to give under-privileged boys a chance in life that would otherwise be denied them. The school has turned out several hun- dred boys in the short time that it has been in existence and 99 per cent have made good. Some peo- ple seem to have the idea that the school is a junior reformatory but they are totally misinformed. The boys there are just a number of high spirited lads that peed care-' ful handling to bring this quality out to the right effect. A feature that all should endeavor not to miss is the physical training dis- play to be given hy the boys: on the day of their fair which has been the subject of much comment on various occasions. . MORE HOLIDAYS AT LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL 'and take Zutoo Pupils at the High School were and eagerly awaited in Bowman-| Daily Times of the new heating system. It was hardly expected that it would be needed so early but the present cold spell has made the school rooms decidedly uncomfortable to work in. The new building is now drawing near to completion and it is expected that before many more weeks have passed the majority of the rooms will be in use. Of coyrse the students are not mad about having to lay off for a few days and their talk tells that they are more the opposite. SUCCESSFUL DANCE HELD AT COURTICE A very successful dance was held last night at Courtice under the auspices of the Bowmanville True Blues. .The hall was hardly large enough to hold the crowd that at- tended and officials of the lodge are more than pleased with the re- sults, Mrs. Mitchel, the president, announced that throughout the winter, dances would be held each Wednesady night at the same hall. These dances will be advertised weekly in the Oshawa Daily Times in the Bowmanville section and these should be watched carefully for special announcements that CONSERVATIVES ARE ATTENDING BANQUET It is expected that over thirty Conservatives of the town will take a trip to Toronto today to attend the banquet given by the Conser- vative party to the Premier, Hon. G.. Howard Ferguson. With the latter's recent announcement of the date of the election talk ar- ound the town once again turns to politics. 'Bowmanville is likely to have two candidates in the fray with Mayor Elliott on the Conser- vative ticket and the choice of the Liberal convention, which takes place next Mondav at Orono. The present member, W. D. Bragg, Is a Liberal and it is hi intention tc place himself before the electorate Keep Your Youthful Figure You are sure of being nour- ished; you will be more vig- orous and energetic and bas to resist illness, if every day you again with the approval of the par- ty, it is understood. It is also un- derstood on good authority that both the prime minister and the leader of the opposition will speak in Bowmanville during the course of the campaign. GOLD SNAP SHOWS WINTER 15 NEAR Not Likely, However, That Eat a little Less Heavy Food and Drink a little More Bovril BOVRIL , Builds Strength Without Fat It Will Last For Many Days the vagaries of the Canadian climate that those who most loudly com- plained of the hot spell are now shivering and shaking as they face the brisk September breeze, It is mot probable however that The cold snap of the past few days proves a strong reminder that winter is not far away, Only three short weeks ago cveryone wars will be given from time to time, , Puke the cold weather will continue sweltering in the heat but such ar ¢ £ will continue. for many days. Many fine days are generally experienced in October and even in November, Oshawa merchants are well pre- parcd for seasonal business. and their window displays indicate that they are ready to cater to the nceds of the community, ~ SPECIAL=-~ 4 Bars Surprise finals JAF Health Salts COLD SPRING Grape Juice Har CROSSE & BLACKWELL'S Roquefort Cheese Fancy--French Imported Guava Jell MOANA Brasd--12% os.
