A steam shovel will be started soon in excavating on the eastern section. Due to the fact that the land rises gradually to the cast from Simcoe strect at this point, no cxcavation was necessary for a length of about 75 feet on the west end of this 416-foot long building, The shovel will start at a point about 75 feet from the west end, taking out only a few inches. In order to keep the basement floor on a level, the excavation will gradually get deeper until at the extreme cast- crn end and it will be down between cight and nine feet. Despite the fact that the slope looks very gra- dual, there is a drop of nearly nine feet in 350 at this point, the survey showed. concrete, Being Made 'On the Skinner Factory Large Gang Working A large concrete mixer has been placed on the job, and an extensive gang of men are employed in digging out for the steel footings and in pouring concrete, The job is being rushed as rapidly as possible by the Ferguson company.

L. Bird Reports on Work Done by the Rotary Club The splendid work being dome gy the Rotary Club of this eity in caring for crippled 'children, was outlined at the weekly lunchéon of the Club in Welsh's parlors yes- terday. The speaker was Dr. D, E. Robertson, surgeon-in-chfef of the Hospital for Sick Children, Toron- to who gpoke on the subject "The Genesis of Cripples.'" ; Crippled children were divided into two classes, the doctor said, those who had been horn with a deformity, and those who had ac- quired it. Deformities might be acquired through deficiency dis- cases and infections, while there were several causes of deformity at birth, © less Tuberculosis. "Tuberculosis is disappearing from America," Dr. Robertson de- clared in dealing with deformities caused through infections, Within the last 15 years, the number of beds required in the Hospital for Sick Children for children suffer- ing from bone tuberculosis had decreased by half, he said, The decrease of this disease, especial- ly in its serious forms, was due entirely to the treatment of milk received in the urban centres of Canada and the United States, Now, instead of having tubercul- osis cases practically thrust at them, healthy authorities had an opportunity to ferret them out. In the respect of the treatment of milk, this continent was far ahead of Europe, where they were building large hospitals to treat tuberculosis, but were paying no attention to the milk supply, he declared. "If untreated milk is fed to a child, he is not receiving a food, bat a pure culture of germs," the speaker said. Even certified milk slipped sometimes. It had to have heat treatment such as that giv- en in the pasteurizing plants, said Dr. Robertson. If bone tub- erculosis 4 develop, however, deformities!

ROLL, O.B.E., WAS TODAY'S SPEAKER Says It Is The Only Hope of Saving World From The application of the Golden Rule as the one real hope of saving the world from war, was emphasized by Capt. William Carroll, O.B.E.,, \Winni- neg, in an address. to the Kiwanis Club of this city at lits weekly lunch- con meeting at noon today. I'here was a great need for people to take more interest in humanity itself, said Capt. Carroll. He recalled the bloodshed that had taken place all through the world's history in ef- forts for material gain, "The League of Nations and the Geneva conferens ces are trying to bring about peace: nations arc talking of reduction of armaments: but all the time they are making great preparations for war. France has today 300,000 men in ac- tive or reserve ranks--a much larger army than Germany had at the onen- ing of the Great War. Great Brite un and the United States are active in making military preparations; Mussolini has declared that Italy must have an army of 5,000,000 men and an airforce sufficient to blot out the sun: Russia has for two years been conscripting her manhood: an Tapan has been gradually setting up a strong naval force. "What should be done? The only hope for the world seems to be in the furtherance of the work the churches and the service clubs are trying to do, in furthering peace a- mong men, We must realize the Fa- therhood of God and the Brother- hood of Man, and carry out the Gol- den Rule, 'Whatsoever ve would that men would do to vou, do ye even so to them." If the leaders of nations would realize the truth of this pre- cept, there would be no need for a United States . of Kurope--there would be instead @ United States of ie, World, in a great common fam- ily.

Bradley. In sponsoring this motion Mayor Mitchell expressed the opinion that the present fence was an eye-sore. Persons passing along Alexandra street could not sce into the park on account of the fence and it spoiled the view for residents of the district. It is the intention of the Parks Com- mission to replace the old board fence with a hedge or ornamental - fence which will add to the appearance ol the park. Tenders will be called for the removal of the present structure, To Discuss Fair After considerable discussion on the subject it was decided at last night's meeting that the Parks Commission should meet with the officers of the South Ontario Ag i~ultural Socicty to discuss several matters in connection with Alexandra Park which are of joint interest to the Commission an to the Oshawa Fair.

Jackson raised objection to the employment of a township man for cutting grass in the city's parks with 4 horse-drawn mower, He thought a local man should have the job. Dr. Henry, chairman, pointed ont that the commission was well satisfi- ed with the work of the present em- ploye but would be willing to cuiploy 1 local resident if he could guarantee as good work.
