Mc- Gillivray, surgeon of the House of Refuge, for the year 1929. It was the only report tabled during the day, the council spending most of its time in committee work. ° The present indications are that the council will not finish on Fri- day night, in which event an ad- ~Journed session will be necessary. Th.re is much yet to be done. <There are severdl bylaws and gom- Pitten reports galore to be dealt "with. 54 Inmates In Dr. McGillivray's report it (Was noted that there are now, 54 inmates in the House of Refuge, of which 34 are men and 20 women, "This was two less than last Year at the same time. Only two inmates had taken advantage of "the Old Age Pension Allowance an left the institution. . Dr. McGillivray stated that (many of the old people were in- capable of doing for themselves being totally destitute of means and friends. Only a very few were mentally deficient. There were ten deaths during the ycar, all the de- ceased being well advanced in years. The doctor thanked the council for their aid in installing 'a Frigidaire System this year. It was a great aid to the health con- ditions he said. . Dr. J. F. Lavery, manager, spoke briefly, This year the crop on the farm was cut in half, he said, The institution used the produce of\the Jarm exclusively, Hogs and cattle to the total of $1,200 were sold together with milk, eggs and fowl, all of which brought in consider- able revenue. Dr, Lavery stated [that there were three standards in the House of Refuge--plenty of food, plenty of heat and cleanli- _noss. The inmates were given the best of care and Dr. Lavery ex- pressed his thanks to Dr. McGilliv- ray for his hearty co-operation. 27th Report The council in thanking the rep- resentatives for their report %ook special notice of the fact that this Is the 27th annual report that Dr. McGillivray has presented since Jbeing appointed in 1903, while Dr. Lavery has been active head of the Refuge for 22 years, This, was thought to be a record for such Institutions in the province.

Page 3) head table for the matron and her assistant, Each table has a cenfre plece which is at present a bowl 'of tulips or hyuginthe. These tables 'have been purchased by the House Committee since they moved to Centre Street. A door at one end of the dining- room leads into the kitchen which is a bright, sunny room, with every modern convenience; There are china cabinets which cpen into this room and also from the other side into the dining-room. Miss Col- ver's private rooms arc at the other end of the corridor on the main floor, They are very cozy in appearance. These rooms face the front of the house, and are also finished with hardwood flooring. The remainder of the maip floor is finished with mastic flooring, which resembles somewhat, black concrete. The stairways are all of this substance. At the back of the house on the first floor aro the de- tention rooms, Tha stairs leading to the rear entrances also turn and lead to the basement where there are two large airy play rooms, one for boys and one for girls . The girls being on the right and the boys on the loft, as is the case throughout the whole building. There is a large room in the base- ment equipped fully with every- thing convenient for laundry work. The building is heated by two automatic feeding furnaces, These {are placed in a room purposely constructed, at a lower level than the other rooms of the basement, To some people, probably, the second floor would prove most in- teresting. Here is located the nur- sery, a pleasant airy room, which has a long. low window looking from the front of the house, Any child would delight to play in this place. where there are all sorts of toys and dolls, and what is most startling about the place is that it is nearly always, except when the kiddies are having a very hilarious time, in perfect order. The child- ren are taught to take care of their playthings are not to leave them in in disreputable condition when they have finished their play, For both boys and girls there two large sleeping rooms, At present there aro seven beds In the senior boys recom and five in the junior room. In the girls' room there are seven beds. Each child is provided with a chair beside his bed, and in all disreputable condition when they have finished their play. Fer both boys and girls there are two large modernly equipped lavatories for both boys and girls are on this floor. The assistant matron's room and a small sewing room are at the back of the house on the second floor. The only part of the place which is not furnished is the hospital or isolation quarters, Tor children who have contracted contagious dls- eases, The rooms which compose this section are at the south, and from the outside it appears like 2 large sun parlor. This end of the house may bo completely closed off from the rest of the building and when it is furnished will contain everything necsesary for both pa- tients and nurse. There is a small kitchenette, laundry tubs, a play room for those recuperating from the measles and other such dis- cases where the child may be per- fectly well but cannot mingle with his playmates until the expiration of a certain length of time. There contributing towards their mainten- ance, the county will now save hund- reds of dollars annually, Sul oad Account From May 2Ist to December 31st, the 'receipts on suburban road' ac- count were $49,050.92 and the dis- bursements were $48,885.05, with a balance on hand at the end of the year of $165.87.

BANQUET GIVEN PUBLIC BODIES (Continued from Page 3) tors of Canada, while they wore riding on their new bicycles, which incidentally were the first of the two-wheeled variety to be intro- duced into the community. The city couneil, Mr. McLaugh- lin stated, had De rinfinto ip the laying of new board sidewalks in which: the boards were placed lengthwise instead of crosswise, This brought great joy to the hedrts of the youthful bicyclists as these new sidewalks wdapted them- selves nicely to riding. On that oc- casion he and his brother, with one or two other boys of the same age were riding down the board walk on their new wheeis. A stout ola lady, attired in the abundant clothes which featured: feminine fashions In those days, was walking on the sidowalk ahead, "At that time," the speaker com- mented," the government allowed bicycle riders to ring their belis and the pedestrians were then sup posed to scatter. We lads rung our bells but unfortunately the old lady did not hear. We expected that we could pass her but at the crucial moment she stopped into the paths of the bicycles." The result was that bicycles and all tumbled into a barbed wire fence. Luckily the old lady was not injured and she was even apol- ogetic for having been in the road. Politics entocred to a great ex- tent into the municipal life of Os- hawa in the latter part of the 19th century, the speaker continued. This gave rise to much bitterness cn occasions while other factions caused disturbance of things in the municipal arena. The city could be thankful, the chairman declared, that party po!- itics had not been a factor in mun- feipal affairs for the past thirty years. The speaker took his hearers back to the day when the question of obtaining a water-supply for the "municipality was of paramount im portance, Some suggested that the water be obtained from springs near Raglan while others desirea that the supply be taken from the lake. Keen discussion arose and as the result of this discussion, Mr, McLaughlin claimed that the pub- lic was finally convinced that there were great difficulties connected with' the spring project. It was then decided to utilize the lake and this decision in the light of after events proved valuable because withethe city's present population the supply from the Raglan springs would be totally inadequate, - Those who had entered into the municipal life of the city had giv- en of their best, the speaker thought, and although in looking back it was possible to see mis- takes which had been made it wes also evident that a great deal had been accomplished. There was need of continued effort in the pre- sent and vision for the future. The Chamber of Commerec pres- ident referred briefly to the recent Alexandra Park dispute and sug- gosted that a solution to this prob- lem could be found if those inter- ested would get together and talk matters over. "I believe," he statdd in con- clusion, "that an independent or- ganization like the Chamber of Commerce can do a great deal for Oshawa in the way of rendering assistance to those who are en- gaged in the great business of di- recting the city's affairs. It is stil} a young organization but IT am firm- ly convinced that its efforts to bring in now" industries and ad- vance the interests of Oshawa will bear fruit in the near future." Mayor T. B. Mitchell, who was called upon to speak on behalf of the city council stated that to his mind the idea of the banquet was a happy one,.in that it gave op- portunity for the members of the city's various elective bodies to get together in mutual fellowship, Dur. ing recent years His Worship con- sidered that Oshawa had made wonderfu® strides and ho claimed that in the period which he had been associated with the city coun- cil he found that there was a spirit of harmony and co-operation. Pol- itics had never entered nto its business in any shape or form, 'I may assure you, Mr. Pres- ident," Mayor Mitchell continued, "that the objcets of the. Chamber of Commerce are indeed . worthy | and that it has the greatest respect of all citizens." "I believe that this is a time in the history of Oshawa when our municipal bodies should move-- move fast, and move seriously," de clared Frank L. Mason, chairman of the public utilities commission. Mr. Mason commented that the members of the commission were becoming more and more convine- ed that they had a "man's job" ahead of them. $ "We want advice on the ques- tions with which we are faced," the speaker stated," and we are willing to listen to it from any Duilis ody or from any citizen of The public utilities commission was convinced that the Chamber of Commerce ¢ould do a great deal to advance the interests of Oshawa, - Was Constipated, Tired.

"I am deeply interested in the development of our harbor," he continued, "as I belleve that when work is completed the lands about the harbor will be regarded as the best industrial sites in the whole Dominion. Further the city is in- deed fortunate in owning this valu- able land at the harbor." The speaker was convinced that the council, could benefit from the co-operation of the Chamber of Commerce, With regard to politics Mr. Ma- son sald that be had always taken an active part in them but he be- lieved that they should never en- ter into municipal affairs and he challenged anyone to show where he had even been influenced by politics while serving on any pub- lic body in the city. The speaker was very much in avor of the banquet as he conhid- ered that events of this nature closer together. Mr. Geo. Walsh contributed much to the enjoyment of the banquet by rendering two fine baritone selections, He was ac-- companied on the plano by Mr. M. Gouldburn, The board of education spent a great deal of money last year but I believe it has someting worth while to slow for it," stated Dr, F. J. Donevan, who spoke on behalf of | this body in the absence of Mr. A. | W, Bell, chairman. Dr, Doneyan | forecasted that there would be an | increase in the city's mill rate this technical school and addition had been built on the Oshawa Colle- glate Institute building. The total cost of the technical school, he considered, would he about $290,- 000, while the cost Including the academic addition would be almost $600,000. During the past year, Dr, Done- van pointed out, the board had en- gaged a business administrator and it was the general opinion of all the members that this had been a good move. The speaker also re- ferred to the appointing of a new musical instructor and announced that the value of instruction in music to children of public school age, might be judged at a concert which it was planned to give. Speaking of the classes for sub normal children and over bright children which had been establish- ed in the city's public school sys- tem, Dr. Donevan stated that the former looked after the needs of the dull student while the later, which was distincly an innovation, provided special subjects for the students who became of unusually bright mentality could not be kept busy with the ordinary public school course, Dr. Donevan was convinced fhat the technical school would fill a great need in the city in providing a good grounding for those who wished to learn a skilled trade, The member of the Hoard of education also expressed apprecia- tion for the action of the Chamber of Commerce in staging the ban- quet, Among those who were invited to attend the banquet were includ- ed: City Couneil.--Mayor T.

PROGRESS BEING WADE AT LONDON Italy Yields on Important Point, Compromise Is Near London, Jan. 31.--Ylelding of ground by Italy on her demand ithat each nation represented at the London naval conference state its maximum naval program before de- termination of the ratios between navies and before discussion of the baffling total tonnage versus cate- gory limitation thesis, was the high light of the third plenary session of the conference, held in St. James' Palace yesterday. An almost equally important de- velopment was the announcement by American, British and French spokesmen that compromise is within sight on the opposed stand- points on limitation methods. Re- conefling the method of which the French favor measuring naval strength with the method preferr- ed by the Pritish and Americans has beén one of the most intricate problems confronting the confer- ence, The third plenary session, to which the press was admitted, met in Queen Anne's red and gold draw- ing room in the ' ancient palace. This impressive gathering, seatea around a three-sided table, with in- terpreters and secretaries in the contre, and two rows of correspond- ents from all over the world in gold chairs against four sides o» the room, met for two reasons oniy: One of these was to save the face of Italy following the overruling of Foreign Minister Dino Grandi by the other four powers on a question of procedure and method. The other was anxiefy to give public opinion in all countries evidence that things are moving in view of the time being used up in private negotiations. tended to draw municipal bodies | year due to the fact that the new | Winnipeg.--Ivan Schultz, lawyer | of Baldur, Man., was elected by ac- clamation a Liberal member of the legislature to represent the con- stituency of Mountain.

COULDN'T WALK FOR FAT But lost her flabbiness in two weeks She was crippled by fat, but reduc- ed in two weeks this easy way. That is plain truth her husband says so! She weighed nearly 200 ths, and had to stay at home. Read this letter-- "My wife has been suffering with swelled legs and feet .and 'weighed 196 Hs. 4 ozs.--very seldom able to go out walking. After taking Krus- chen Salts for two weeks, her flabbi- ness has gone, legs and feet feel easier." Excess fat is caused by the liver, kidneys and bowels, the "scavenging" organs of the body = failing to do their work properly. They do not throw off that waste material--the product of digestion, This accumu- lates, and--before you realize it--you are growing hideously fat. The "lit- tle daily dose" of Kruschen Salts tones up the eliminating organs to perform their work properly. Slowly but sure- ly the ungainly masses of fat dis- appear and what you lose in weight you gain in unbounded health and vitality, The years drop off as the fat melts away--leaving you ener- getic, youthful and vigorous, COULD TALK OF SARGON ALL DAY' "This new Sargon is miles ahead of any medicine I ever took in my life, "Four down hill. four years I kept going My nerves were 'shot to Th FRED J.

Hawthorne, of Hollywood, who was brought to Bowmanville to produce the play. Full of snappy tunes and a multi tude of new jokes the play kept the audience in a fine humor through- out the two hours' entertainment. It would indeed be a hard thing to have to pick out for particular mention for.all the main parts were exceptionally. well played and the singing was both peppy and well rendered. Miss Margaret Colville, who played the title role is per- haps the most deserving of men- tion for she took her part in a nat- ural and very creditable manner. Harold King, who was the hero, Richard Wilson, a poor wireless mechanic, was also especially good and he played the difficult role of a lover to perfection. Harold is well-known in Bowmanville, but doubtless there are not many who ever thought of him as an actor, Neverthe less he is, and those who missed his performance last night should endeavor to see it tonight when the comedy will be produced again. Mrs. Colville, as Mrs, O'- Rielly, excelled herself as usual in the Atlantic, where the plot of the her vocal solos and could hardly have been better cast than as the hostess of the yachting party on lay is laid. All of the cast in- luding the choruses did remark- {ably well and scored an outstand- | ing success, The play is centred around the love affairs of Rosie, a daughter of an oil magnate who proves to be a rather spoilt child who has nearly everything her own way much to the disgust of her sister, Lady Ger- aldine, who is anxious for her. to marry a very effeminate English lord in the person of Mr, Smith Ferguson, who is a guest on the boat. She, however, rejects the am- orous advances of this "sissy of the nobility" and is deeply in love with a young radio engineer, whom she smuggles on the yacht when her father goes for a trip for the sole purpose of getting Rosie away from her poor but honest lover, The scenes depicting the bringing of her father to agree to her marriage and the ultimate and customary ending where the bride and groom live happily ever after went to pro- vide a very Interesting evening's entertainment. 'Rosie O'Rielly" is to be repeated tonight at the Opera House and should draw a large audience after the fine performance last night. IMPORTANT JUNIOR GAME FOR TONIGHT Fans Urged To Give Players Best Possible Support It will no doubt be unnecessary to remind hockey fans of Bowman- ville that tonight is one of utmost importance in hockey circles for the first of the junior playoffs is to take place at Taylor's Arena, sharp at 8.15. As has been the case on several former occasions the oppo- sition is from Oshawa, and the for- mer Shamrocks, now the City Jun- jors, will make an attempt to stem the tide of Bowmanville's success- ful season and hand the local boys a beating. Whether or not they can do this is a matter of great speculation. In Oshawa naturally they are expecting their juniors to come out on top and in Bowman- Bowmanville Daily Times News, advertising and subscriptions will be received at the Bowmanville Office of I'be limes. Ielephones--Ofhce, 587: REPRESENTATIVE--B. HERBERT MORTLOCK 23 ; L The winners of the group wiil likely have to meet the fast Peter- borough St. John's next Wednes- day and so a decisive win will mean a great deal towards attaining this goal. The bigger the score tonight the better for it will be a tough old game on the big ice on Monday. The confidence that has pulled the boys this far through the fray is still instilled in them, but confi- dence will wane if the proper sup- port ig not forthcoming. It would be a nice thing to be able to say tomorrow that hundreds were turn- ed away for lack of accomodation. The roof of the rink is strong and will stand any amount of cheering, so just make an effort to head for the rink after supper tonight. LARGE EARNINGS DOMINION BAN Total Assets Exceed Any Previous Year--Great Expansions The 58th annual statement of the Dominion Bank covering the calendar year 1929, provides strik- ing evidence of the growth in the country's business and the import- ant contribution this bank is mak- ing to sound and constructive de- velopment.

During the year the Paid-Up Capital and Reserve Fund were each increased by $1,000,000 and total Shareholders' Investmeént is now $16,367,000. SWEDISH COLONISTS PLAN TO SETTLE ON CANADIAN FARMS Stockholm, Sweden, Jan, 80.-- Canada may become ths future home of 62 Swedish families, who were recently repatriated from the village of Gamalsvenskby, in south- ern Russia after an exile of 150 years. A Swedish committee 18 scheduled to visit Canada this month to make preliminary ' ar- rangements for transfer. It will include the Rev. Christoffer- Hoas, pastor of the Gammalsvenskby col- ony, who was greatly instrumental in bringing about the exodus of the Swedish villagers from Russia, Announcing . . The New ville we are expecting the same. The main factor in helping the boys to win the group, is support, and or uneighboring city is going to turn out in full force this evening to do their share to help their lads along.
