ED BY MAGISTRATE TODAY Given' Term of Two Years Less One Day at Guelph Institution Frank You, of Toronto, was sentenced to twelve months deter- minate in the Ontario Reforma- tory at Guelph and to two years less one day indeterminate by Magistrate Hind on a conviction of stealing a motor car from a local man, You was convicted last week but he had been remanded until today for sentence, "Although the prisoner is a young man I cannot agree to sus- pended sentence due to the ser: fousness of this offense," Crown Attorney McGibbon stated to the court. "There are too many motor cats being stolen and' the de- partment regards the situation as serious." T, K. Creighton, counsel for the defence, urged the court to leni- ency in passing sentence. He point: ed out that the case was unusual and that although his client had been found in possession of the car he had not taken' it, He was not even an accessory to the crime in the sense of the term implied by the criminal code Mr, Creighton suggested, He also asked that con- sideration be given for his age. Magistrate Hind stated that he would impose the minimum pen- alty of twelve months determinate with an indeterminate period thereafter of two years less one day. : "1 understand," His 'Worship commented to the: accused' 'that at the end of the determinate' term you may be placed on parole if you, are of good hehavior.. You will also be assisted ih getting a job." \ The accused was arrested in Toy ronto by the Toronto police, Acs cording to his story the .car had been stolen by a friend in Oshawa and he was standing beside it when the police arrived ' and arrested him. He admitted knowledge of the theft but denied taking any part in it, . ---------------------------------- DUNDAS TO NAME CANDIDATE NONDAY (By Canadian Press Leased Wire) Brockville, Ont, Sept. 20.--Conser- vatives of the riding of Dundas will hold a convention next Monday 10 sclect a candidate for the forthcom- ing provincial elections.

ON EXHIBITION PAINTINGS ARE BY MISS FLORENCE McGILLI- VRAY ; Will be on Display at Luke Furniture Store All Next Week Considerable interest is being shown locally in a splendid collec- tion of water-color paintings which is now on exhibition in the store of the Luke Furniture Company. These paintings are by Miss Flor- ence McGillivray who, by virtue of family ties with this district, is well known in Oshawa, Whithy and the surrounding district. This collection of paintings, it is un- derstood, will be on display at the Luke Furniture Company's store for the whole of next week, and it is well worth seeing. Carl Thurston has observed that range of subject will be one of the picture, and in all forms of creat- Ive art, mere prettiness holds less and less claim on attention; cer- tainly no picture in the Oshawa exhibition of water colour sketches by Miss Florence McGillivray is a merely pretty one, character and strength are in both choice of sub- ject and treatment. Probably the rangeof subject will be one of thc first things to strike the observe: ; the sunny erowded foreign market. the tropic warmth and brilliance of the Indies, grey weather on Cana- dian waters, autumn glory and winter snows in Quebec, the sea and the mountains in many moods and places are here, Worthy of particular attention perhaps is Number 7 in the exhibition, Late Evening on the Maine coast; on the cold blue of the darkening sea the warmth of the fading sunset lingers, and the wave-worn rocks in the foreground are full of col- our, There is a special quality in Number 9 in the strength of the dense timber and the depth of col- our in the water. In Number 21, the great pine in the foreground and the delicate graduation of co!- our is extraordinarily pleasing. Among the sea pictures, Number 35, Cornish Coast, has a gem-like clarity of colour and a bold sim- plicity which is most satisfying. Number..13 depicts the tumbling pale waters of the Lievre, full of force and motion, the perspective ehpecially striking, Entire 1- ern 'fir: treatment fre the 1igt'e tropical bit, Numbhér41, an®Fofsy Weather, Number 44, Of excep- tional interest in 'désigh{or. pat- tern are the Venetian sketches, Number 8 and 3; or Winter on the Gatinea mber 11; perhaps -also the Tree runks, Number 46. Among the uncatalogued pictures are some .fino sea pieces and & couple of charming little sketches, one a snow scene and the other some rampicks or old tree trunks in Grand Manan, It may be of interest to recall that up to the present Miss Mc- Gilllvray, a sister of Dr. McGillivs ray and the late Judge McGillivray of Whitby, is the only woman who is a member of the Canadian Society of Painters in Waer' Colour,.8he is a member of the Ontario Society of Artists, and an Associate of the Royal Canadian Academy; the National Gallery at Ottawa has four of her pictures. But it is not only in her own coun- try that Miss McGillivray enjoys Water Colour, She i= a member of the International Art Union of Paris and, during her two years' residence there,,K was President of the Union; she also exhibited pic- tures in the Salon des Beaux Arts. She has exhibited pictures in New York and other American cities 'and is a member of the American Women Painters and Sculptors of New York. Oshawa and its vicin- ity are extremely fortunate in this opportunity of viewing an exhibi- tion of Miss McGillivray's work, CONVIGTED ON CHARGE OF THEFT Magistrate, However, Sus- pends Sentence on Leo. McGillis Leo MeGillis, who was convicted by Magistrate Hind in police; court: this morning on a charge of steals ing six dollars from a roomer in a boarding house where he resides, was. placed under suspended sen- tence for a period of two. years. McGillis, who is a young man'in |' his early twenties, is alleged bo have taken the money out of a drawer in the bedroom occupied by the other man. "This is a sneaky thing to do, but I am willing to give you a chance," Magistrate Hind com- mented. Crown Attorney McGibban was willing to r t to pended senténce as he understood that Mc- Gillis had never been in trouble before and would keep out of din- culty in future. "Is that right?" asked.
