THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, JANUARY 28, 1930 - PACE THREE | Burglars Joint Banquet Enjoyed by Rotarians, Kiwanis and Kinsmen at Rotary Hall Presentation of One Act Play "Low Life" by Little Theatre Club Was Pleas- * ing Feature Last Night CLUBS INTERESTED IN LITTLE THEATRE WORK Purpose and Achievements of Oshawa Little Theatre Outlined by Col. Frank Chappel -- Artists Ap- plauded Members of the Rotary Club, the 'Kiwanis Club and the Kinsmen's Club held an enjoyable banquet in the Rotary Hall, last night, The program was in charge of Rotar- jan Dave Tod, chairman of the Fellowship Committce, and was much appreciated by the members of the three organizations who were present. President George Hart, of the Rotary Club. acted as chairman for the evening. The presentation of Maza de la Roche's short, but intensely inter- esting one act play 'Low Life" by the Oshawa Little Theatre proved the feature of the entertainment and the audience was given a more intimate insight into the work of the Little Theatre. The scene is laid in the combined kitchen and living room of the flat occupied by a poor English workingman who is struggling tec "make a go of it" in a Canadian city. It concerns the lives of three people, Joe Benn, the English workingman, his capable and ener- getic. Mrs. Benn, who by hard toil as a charwoman manages to keep her husband and family for Joe is out of work, and Linton, a man who has reached that indefinable period between youth and middle age and whose shabby genteelity marks him as one who has seen better days. Through the sympathy of Joe he has gradually drifted in- to the lives of the other two and has lived in their humble home while attempting to find some Rosie O Reilly a musical comedy is to be present- ed by local talent at the OPERA HOUSE, BOWMANVILLE, THURSDAY & FRIDAY, JAN. 30 and 31, under the auspices of the Daughters of England. It'is a hilarious comedy dealing for the most part with a very seasick ne- gro. If you like Amos and Andy Don't Miss This. Admission 50c. Rush seats 35¢. means of employment. He vaguely hints that women have been the cause of his downfall 'and then with the same breath he thanks God that he never married. But Joe points out that if it was not for his own good wife they would both be on the strect. They are unanimously of the opinion that she is a remarkable woman and aré loud in her praises. The characters in the play are revealed with great forcefulness and of the three Mrs. Benn is re- vealed as the strongest. Burden- ed by the care of a litite baby, her young daughter attending school, her husband out of work and un- profitable boarder in the person of Linton helping to gobble up the food at her table she applies all her rugged strength ta. providing this little family with needs of life. Openly avowing to turn the genteel Linton out of the house she finally relents toward bim that she has a great and generous heart while at the same time she is urged by the suggestion of her husband that the presence of this former gentleman in their home is having an influence for refine- ment on their daughter. Joe Benn's chief virtue is found in his sympathy for his penniless friend. He appears to be content that his wife is the wage ecarner and the fact that he is out of work evidently has not caused him much worry. His efforts to pro- tect Linton from the wrath of his wife are sincere but comical and are a relief to the severity of the play. Little can be said of Linton from outside of his appreciation for tho assistance of the Benns and a manner which suggests that he was used to better things; there is dittle to recommend him and he seems to be one of those products of society who when forced to live by their own effort prove onmtirely incapable. Fearing that Linton would be put out on the street by his wife, Joe Benn puts an orange into the man's pocket which Mrs, Benn had brought home for their daughter, Lizzie, as a gift from her mistress. But Linton is allowed to remain in the home and when they hear Lizzie's returning footsteps on the landing leading into the flat, Joe contrives to recover the orange and without his wife suspecting he holds it out in his hand and cries "and ere's your horange, Lizzie, all ready for you." The curtain rings down with the mother joyous over the return of her daughter, while Linton, continuing his .role of & gentleman attempts to correct the little lady for a mistake in gram- mar, Mr. and Mrs. John Craig, direc- tre movement in Oshawa and its achievements were outlined to the audience in a brief but com- ment are to be congratulated upon their choice of actors for these dif- ficult parts.

This re-union of ex-ser- vice men, which will take the form of a concert and smoker, has been made possible through the generosity of a local citizen who provided the funds for the refresh- mente and smokes for this large gathering, and of a group of the General Motors executives, who provided the funds for the rental of the auditorium when it was found that the gathering was to be so large that theis would be the only auditorium in the city large enough to accommodate it. With the band of the 34th Ontario Regiment in attendance, and a splendid musical program arrang- ed, this should be the biggest night for ex-service men ever held In the city, The chair for the occasion is to be occupied by M. Malntyre Hood, chairman of the local Legion exe- cutive and provincial officer of the Legion, and several members of the provincial executive are expect- ed to be present. These will in- clude Lt.-Col. F, J. Pickering, of St. Thomas, second vice-president of the Legion in Ontario, and Col. B. O. Hooper, of Toronto, provin- cial honorary treasures. Visitors are also expected from nearby hranches of the Legion to join in the festive occasion. So far, 750 invitations to this event have been sent out, and the list is not yet complete. With time so short, it may not be possible for invitations to be sent to all ex- service men. All war veterans, however, whether of the Canadian or Imperial forces, will be made hearily welcome, even if they have not received invitations. The fact that this gathering has been made possible is looked on as a tribute to the work of the Oshawa Branch of the Legion during the last year, and it is expected that its activities will be given a further stimulus by this function. & Benn and George Jacobs as Lin- ton all gave splendid interpreta- tions and sympathy to the parts which they played. The purpose of the Little Thea- tre moverment in Oshawa and fits achievements were outlined to the audience in a brief but com- prehensive address of Col. Frank Chappel. He pointed out that it bridged the gap between the legit- imate stage which for financial roa- sons could only exist {n the larger cities and the lack of theatricals which was generally the case in a city the size of Oshawa. "The desire for self expression is common to nearly all of us," Col. Chappel declared, "some find an outlet for it in music and art while others find it in drama." The Little Theatre was in its second year of existence in Osh- awa, he stated, and during this period it had presented twenty plays with casts drawn from over 100 people. It embraced no class or social disinctions he declared and players had been procured from points as far as Whitby, Col- umbus and Courtice. Col. Chappel pointed out that there, were three groups in the Os- hawa Little Theatre. members who took no active part but lent fin- ancial support, those who preform- ed the work of making stage sot- tings, costumes and so forth and the players. Much he claimed, was owed to the ability of the directors Mr, and Mrs, John Craig, He ex- pressed his appreciation for the splendid assistance which had been given 'to the organization by the Rotary Club, in loaning its hall for rehearsals, and to all others who had assisted in the movement, On behalf of the three clubs, Ro- tarian D, B. Carlyle vioted pleasure Yor the high character of the enter- tainment which had been given. Upon request of the audience the actors and those who had assisted, including Mrs. 'R. B, Smith, prompter, Mrs, .G. D. Conant, president of the Osh- awa Little Theatre, Mrs. John Craig, director, and Mr. Robertson, in charge of properties, were brought be the curtain and introduced by Col." Chappel and were all accord- ed generous applause. rman George Hart pointed out that last night's gathering was in the nature' of a fellowship meeting for the three clubs. Greetings were br t from the Kiwanis Club by President Bob Smith while Dr. Lou Hubbell, former president 'of the Kinsmen, brought greetings from the Kinsmen. Mr. George Fleming contributed to the program by rendering two bari- tone solos in splendid. voice, accomp- anied on the piano by Mr. M, Gould- burne.

The presentation was made by Rotarian Stan Phillips. A letter from the governor of Rotary District 27 was read by Ro- | tarian Phillips congratulating Ro-) tarian Hezzlewood upon his re-) markable achievement. Mr. Hezzelwood made fitting re- ply and pointed out that it had al- ways been a pleasure to him to at- tend the meetings of Rotary. He related several humorous incidents concerning his attempts to mdin- tain his record while visiting in other cities. Another pleasant feature of last night's banquet was the presenta- tion of badges to the members of the team which had done most dur- ing the year to increase the attend- Rotarians, Attendance Club Meetings G.

With these keynote words of His Majesty's specch at the open- ing of the London Naval Confer- ence, Evangelist Moffett introduced his sermon Sunday night at Ma- sonic Temple. After roferring to the laudible efforts to avert an- other World War by the organiza- tion of the League of Nations and the World Court, the signing of the Kellogg Briand Peace Pact, and the calling of the present Naval Disarmament Conference, the speaker asserted that the Daniel clearly indicates the out- come of these endeavors, "The prophecy," he based upon an image whose head was of gold, whose breast and arms were of silver, things of brass, legs of iron, fcet and ten tocs of iron and clay which would not hold together. The speaker then traced the in- terpretation as given by Daniel, the four parts of the image repre- senting four successive world em- pires, Babylon, Medo Persia, Gre- cia, and Rome. The ten toes of iron and clay were expiained to sym- bolize the ten kingdoms of mod- ern Europe into which Rome was divided. "Seven words of God," said the said. "is of a man | Evangelist. "in this prophecy re- ferring to these kingdoms, they shall not cleave one to another' tell the story of suspicion and unrest, of commercial rivalry and national animosities, of peace talk and war preparations, that will defeat every effort at permanent peace. "As long as sin and selfishness and greed and malice dwell in the hearts of men so long," asserted the preacher, *'will strife and war continue. The speaker quoted the published statement of Senator w. E. Borah, chairman of the Com- mittee of Foreign Affairs of the United States Senate, an ardent pacifist, to the effect that 80 to 85 per cent. of the revenue of many nations is budgeted to pay for past wars and prepare for the next. a total of over four billion dollars a year, with standing ar- mies of 40,000,000 men, or more than there were in 1914, Returning to the prophecy of the image, he pointed out that a stone unaided by human hands smote the image on its feet, where- upon the materials composing the image were crushed and swept away like the chaff of a summer threshing. "The stone," said the speaker, "peprosents Jesus Christ, | the stone which the builders rejected which is to become the head of the corner, The prophecy teaches that things will go from bad to worse in this world, just as the image deteriorated from gold to silver, to brass. to iron, to clay, until Christ comes to desiroy sin and sinners, and establish his kingdom of everlasting peace, when the stone of the vision becomes a great mountain, and his kingdom fills the whole earth." . "The only hope of the world," sald the speaker, in closing, "lies in the coming of the Prince of Peace to sweep away the wreckage and ruin which sin has wrought, to banish war and strife, and bring the glad day when His glory shall cover the earth as the waters cover the sea. A special feature of the meeting wag Miss Violet Morgan's readids "The Dream of Pilate's Wife". Prof. L. H. Hartin was announced as the speaker for next Sunday night, his subject being "Why Was Sin Permitted." Judge Ruddy, Whitby, Re-Elected Chairman | Of Police Commission Judge J.

PROGRESS MADE IN 1929 BY HOLY TRINITY CHURCH Favorable Reports Presented at Annual Vestry Meet- ing Last Night Progress in all branches of church work was shown in the re- ports which were presented at the annual vestry meeting of = Holy Trinity Anglican Church held in the parish hall last night. The rector, Rev. S. C. Jarrett was in charge and he referred to the fine showing which the congregation has made during the past year and to the steady increase in church membership.

Although the total amount raised during hte year was $4,264 from all sources, an increase of $1,459 over 1928, the rector stress- ed the need ef increased envelope subscriptions and an increase in missionary allottments, The financial statement was presented by A. L. W. Smith while reports were also received from the Women's Auxiliary, the A, Y. P. A, the Sunday School, the Men's Brotherhood, and the choir.

Freight Shed Entered Goods and Cash Worth Sev- eral Hundred Dollars Stolen ip Raids by Gang of Marauders Sunday Night : THREE HOUSES WERE ENTERED, NEWCASTLE Houses of Rev. Scott How- ard, County Constable Jackson and Mrs. George Rickard Burglarized by Thieves Bowmanville and district after sev- eral weeks of quictness was again the centre of activities of a gang of bur« glars on Sunday night. In Bowman- ville, the Canadian Pacific Freight Sheds were broken into and a small quantity of druggist supplies were taken. The thieves gained admission to the office of the sheds by break- ing the glass in the door but find- ing nothing of any value here they left the building and breaking the seal of a box car standing the yard en- tered that and stole the articles men- tioned above and smashed several cases of other goods without finding anything that they valued. Special Investigator Humphries of the C.P.R, is in town making an investigation and is working on clues that are expected to bring the culprits to justice in a short time, Three at Newcastle At Newcastle the same night three private residences were broken into an -ral hundre .ars worth of good were stolen. All three were ap- parently by the same persons as the same methods were used in each case to gain entry. The home of the Rev. Scott Howard was entered through the conservatory door which was evi- dently unlocked with a pass key and stole all cash they were able to find in pockets and also the new vacuum cleaner that had been recently pur- chased at a cost of nearly one hun- dred dollars. Also a number of en- velopes which had been filled a few days previous with the month's sub- scriptions for the church were taken but the thieves missed two coon coats that were hanging in the hall and which were worth several hundred dollars. Mrs. Howard told the Times that no damage was donc and the thieves were so quiet that although the members of the family were up- stairs sleeping nothing was heard of them. At the home of County Constable Jackscu the thieves gained admit« tance by cutting a hole in the screen door and unlocking the inside door likely with the same key that gave them entrance to the Howard resi- dence. In this case the first thing that they took was a fur coat valued at over $50 and also sveeral small things of little value. A dog that was evidently a menace to their de predations was taken likely to pre- vent it waking the household wha were sleeping in the house. Mr, Jackson is also a mail carrier im Newcastle. The other home entered was thay of Mrs, George Rickard but here ths robbers were unable to find anything of value and after ransacking Ww ers and cupboards left the house without anything. The police are in= vestigating and are of the opinion that the robberies in Bowmanvilla and those at Newcastle can be traced to Ke same persons. One thing 'is cerfain and that is the robbers had a car and it is likely that after leav- ing Newcastle they headed for Bow« manville .but did: nothing: more aften entering the Freight Sheds. 'The. lit tle dog at the home of Mr. Scott who lives across the street from the sheds was reported to have been barking a lot during the course of the night but no investigation was made to find the cause.' Tracks in the snow 'have given the police an idéa as to what the culprits are like and it. is 'expected that it will not be long before an arrest is made. © Also last night there was a robbery at Janetville several miles north of here but is: thought to have no'con- fection whatsoever with the focal ones as it would be almost impossible to get back there with an automobiles Born GRISEWOOD---In the Oshawa Gen- eral Hospital, Monday, January 27, 1930, to Mr. and Mrs, Cecil H.
