PACE TWO THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1930 'Bowmanville News, advertising and subscriptions will be received at the Daily Times 3, ue Bowmanville Office of Ibe Times. Telephones--Office, 587; REPRESENTATIVE--B. HERBERT MORTLOCK 'THAT'S THAT WAS "DELIGHTFUL PLAY Musical Comedy Presented Last Night by Local Talent "The. Opera House in Bowman- ville was the scene last night of a production that appealed to all of the large audience that greected it, Under the auspjces of the Bowmanville Tennis Club the musi- ce! comedy "That's That" was presented by a local cast of nearly 125 under the' direction of Miss Kelly of New York. From the rise of the curtain until the singing of God Save the King brought the evening to a close there w-s never a dull mo- hient and the cast can be credit- ed for having produced a difficult play in a style worthy of profes- sional actors. The acting of Miss Peggy Oliver as a néne too refined young lady from the Bowery of New York and that of Bernard obtainable at Oneaenie i drug ad | ugh to last for 4 or 5 half-ascent | Symons, L. | Emmet, | Ryan. Bos: " Mitchell and Alan Knight as two lovesick young gentlomen are worthy f spocial mention, Miss Bagnell, who played the part of Aa young society girl ad Miss Caverly, also of the smart set. were also well fitted to their roles and played their parts in an ex- ceedingly fime styl: KEdsal Oliver as the hick from the country and Cecil Dudley as a New York young man were-both-gooa. The scenery, representing :n hotel at Palm Beach, fitted in nicely with the summer cc.'umes of .the., young ladies who were basking of the rays of the southern sun and com- pletely transposed - the audience from the stormy blasts - outside to the scene of the play in the playground of the rich. The choruses were. good and the costumes in these gave an add- ed air to the show. The story centered :.ound the love affairs of four yo.ng couples. These four 'were entirely differ- ent, one being the affair of a maiden stricken with a young man who saved h-r life, one being one of these love at first sight af- fairs that one reads of in books, another was the affair of two of New York's east side inhabitants and the last was the supposedly undying love of a hick from the country for a former playmate who had later graduated into a social climber, The amusing incidents sur- rounding these afiairs and final reckoning when as usual all are married 'and live happily ever af- ter proved a delightful evening's entertainment, BASKETBALLERS LOSE TO PORT HOPE The Port Hore High School bas- ketballers scored their second win of 'the season at the High Schoo! gym at Port Hope Tuesday night, when they won from the Bowman- ville team in the Interscholastic League by 26 to 12. Despite the edge which the locals had the ame was an interesting one and the large audience had an enjoy- able evening. The locals will meet the Cobourg team in Cobourg on Friday night. The Port Hope players were Messrs. Fourt, Leonard, Meldrum, Carr, A. Emmet, R. Rowland, Wilkinson ana Mr. Eastman officiated as referee. Following the game a delightful a day; | lunch was served by the lady stu- 3): street & 7s Avenue... OPPOSITE PENNA. RR.

KILL, General Manager' dents of the School, under the chaperonage of Mrs. (Dr.) Haw. kins and this proved to be a very entertaining feature. At its close brief addresses were made by the captains of the two teams, Messrs. Vanstone of Bowmanville and Fourt of Port f-Port Hops, INTERMEDIATES AT | KINGSTON TONIGHT Local Team Starts on Long Grind to the Top Bowmanville intermediates enter the second round of the playoffs and also start on the long grind to the top when they journey to Kingston tonight to meet the Royal Military College Cadets. From all accounts Bowmanville should come with a handsome lead for the first game as none of the eastern teams are reported to be very strong this season, The line up will be the same as handed the Port Hope team a whitewashing on Wednesday aud if the same class of hockey is play- ed as on that occasion there is little doubt as to the outcome, The Times has made special arrange- ments for an account of the game and Bowmanville fans who are not taking the journey will get a de- tailed account in tomorrow's issue of The Times. The Port Hope Guide, commen- ing on the game here on Wednes- day c'ated: "The Shieks with a fast, back- checking, formidable lineup went through the season's play with only one defeat. Port Hope chalked up six wins and two reverses and was forced to play five games in ten days to meet. Bowmanville last night. The team was leg weary from the long grind and might possibly make a better showing af- ter a week's rest or so. "The best wishes of the local | hockey club and the fans of Port | Hope go with Bowmanville in thel: quest for further honors. They have a strong team and will be worthy representatives of O.H.A. Intermediate Group No. 3." Oratorical Contest at the High School The annual "oratoricat contest of the stuc:nts of the Bowmanville High School was held in the new auditorium on Wednesday night with a fair sized audience. The hockey proved a biz attraction and most of the town scemed to be at the rink thus depleting the num- bers that would have otherwise at- tended this interesting function, The addresses were exceptionally fine and are a great credit to the teaching staff giving as they do an insight into the knowledg? taught and the powc' of expres sion attained by pupils of the school. The prize winners were: girls, Florence Bennet, "Joan of Arc'; Phyllis Clemence, "The League of Nations'; boys, Stanley Rickard, "The Hard Road to Peace'; John Jury, "Burma"; Bob Corbett, "The Development of Ru2io", IMPORTANT PLAN IS BEFORE PARLEY (Continued from Page 1) United States' 315,000. The Brit- ish viewpoint was that this gap iu favor of Britain was necessary be- cause of her more widespread re- sponsibilities, which made a great number of small cruisers necessary. The greater proportion of small cruisers, that is, vessels of well be- low 10,000 tons armed with 6-inch guns, made the greater aggregate of cruiser tonnage. Under the Americin proposals the gap in favor of Britain is cut in half. (3) The proposals recognize the right of Britain to build up to 18 8-inch gun cruisers by reducing the number of her small criusers, pro- vided she keeps within the total cruiser tonnage. Conversely, the proposals recognize the right of the United States to increase the number of her small cruisers by reducing the tonnage allotted to the heavy cruisers, cutting them from 18 to 15. \his point, it is observed, cre- ates in reality one big cruiser cate- gory, ranging from the 10,006 ton 4,000 or 5,00 Oton "police" crui- ser with 6-Inch guns. But at the ST. ANDREW'S HAD PROSPEROUS YEAR {1y | Practically All of Church's| Debt Paid Off During Year The annual meeting of St. An- drew's Prosbyterian Church was held Thursday evening, Jan, 30th, in the church. A large and repre- sentative attendance ehowed the keen interest taken by the mem- bers in the welfare of the Presby- terian Church. Dr. R. W. Clark acted as chair- man and éncouraging reports were | en's | Mission Band, Young People's So- read by representatives of the Session, Board of Managers, Wom Auxiliary, Women's Mission- ary Society, Choir. Sabbath School, ciety, ete. It was very gratifying to note that during the year, practically all the debt was paid off the church building, and a balance re- mains in the bank. The allocation of the congrega- tion to the budget was oversub- scribed and the church in general is in a flourishing condition. The Women's Missionary Society al- location was nearly doubled and an increase in membership noted. Messrs. Wm. Brock, F. O. Me- Ilveen, Geo. Crombie and John Reid were elected to the Board of Managers for a period of three years, After several complimentary votes of thanks a social time was enjoyed by all. 2 SATURDAY SPECIALS up to $1.95.

Under the American pro- posal the transfer would apply on- as between 6-inch and 8-inch gun cruisers. The French trans- fers would be from one class to any other clas sof vessel. On this point the British h gevansfo - aeo ado the Britis hhave gone so far as to express agreement wfth transfers from the cruiser classes downward, barring transfer of capital ship or submarine tonnage, (4) The proposals make the at- | tailnment of cruiser equilibrium on the Pacific Ocean easier or attain- ment. Japan's claim for 70 per cent of the British or United States' cruiser strength would, under par- ity, haveb een 70 per cent of 21 big cruisers. Now, under this agree- ment, it would be 70 per cent of 18 big crulsers, which hds always been the maximum British aim. (5) The proposals involve recog- nition that parity will be achieved on a ship-for-ship basis. So the conference has before ft one of the plainest, most basic pro- posals that has yet been laid down. GREAT PROGRESS AT NAVAL PARLEY (Continued from Page 1) to capital ships, aircraft carriers and submarines. (6) That the number of capital ships for each signatory flxed by the Washington Treaty should be reached in actuality within 18 months of ratification of the treaty resulting from the present confer- ence instead of by 1936. 7() That no replacement of ex- isting ships should take place be- for the next conference in 1935. (8) The British experts favor re- duction in the maximum limit of the capital ship from 35,000 tons to 25,000 tons, and reduction in maximum guns from 16 inches to 12 inches, They favor lengthening the age of battleshipg from 20 to 26 years, The British Government would like battleships to disappear altogether. (9) The British government pro- poses reduction in aircraft carrier tonnage for the British common- wealth navies from 135,00 tons under the Washing Treaty to 100,- 000 tons. It also proposes further the maximum size of aircraft car- riers should be 25,000 tons, Their age limit should be 26 instead of 20 years. 10) The British government pro- poses the tonnage limit of the 8- inch gun cruser should remain at 10,000 tons and there should be a tonnage limit for smaller cruisers at between 6,000 and 7,000 tons, (11) The present British build- ing programme of destroyers can be reduced if the submarine pro- grammes of other powers can be reduced. (12) The British government, proposes abolition of the submar- ine. But if abolition cannot be agreed upon, if will put forward proposals for limiting submarines rigidly to defense requirements. In any event the British will press for limitation of the submarine to the lowest possible limit. (13) The British government proposes the limit for destroyer leaders should he 1,850 tons, the limit for destroyers 1,600 tons, and the maximum calibre of guns for both should be five inches, "The conference' the memoran- dum observes, "ought not only to reduce existing fleets and building programmes, but should put an end finally to competition ' in naval armaments." The points enumersted above indicate British and/ American agreement on all impprtan points.

They brought, too, other good things in great abundance, in- cluding rolls, pies, cakes, tea, etc, and served them in good style, Over 150 sat down to the tables as guests of the men, and the man- ner in which the good things were devoured was a clear indication of how they were enjoyed and appre- ciated. The role of Maggie was played by Frank Theardgold and of Jiggs by J. F. Agg, both performing in a manner true to the description of the real characters in the comic strips, The rolling pin and other wea- pons of warfare were on hand, and of them Jiggs got the full benefit.

REPRESENTATIVE--JAMES H, ORMISTON Daily Times During the evi arin 4 a mock trial was held. Chief Gunson brought in | Tom Henstock a member of the as- sociation, and supposed to be a bro- ther of Maggie. He was charged before Frank Erskine, presiding as magistrate, with stealing a quantit of silver, Witnesses gave their testi- mony, including Jiggs, and the pri- soner, found guilty, was sentenced to three years in Kingston, The trial produced some real fun, the perform- ance of Maggie as she saw the weight of evidence against her bro- ther gathering momentum being real amusing. For the evening a fine combination Victor radio, kindly loaned by Mr. Fred Landon, supplied music. The supper and concert were a real success and the officers of the Men's Association feel much gratifi- ed. HONORED CITIZEN TO BE BURIED ON SATURDAY BR The funeral of the late William M. VanValkenburg, whose passing on Thursday morning is deeply re- gretted in Whitby, will be held on Saturday afternoon. A public service will be held in the United church, of which deceased was a member, Rev. A. Richards, the minister, presiding. It will be under Masonic auspices, and members of that craft last respects in the church and at the graveside in Groveside cemetery. Representatives of the Board of Education, Public Utility Commission and the Town Council, on which de- ceased served, will also attend, as well as railway men from all parts of the district, Stock 'Market.

British-American oil was a fea- ture in the curb section and econ- tinued its downward slide, started on Wednesday, with today's bot- tom being reached at 42, a new low for the year or longer, The stock was again given support just ment indicated an agreement was tentatively reached--if it is re- garded optimistically--or at least is much nearer, on the more difi- cult question, It still remains to be seen now Japan regards the new develop- ments, and how France and Italy will react to the sumarine proposi- tions. But in any event, the con- ference has made great progress in the past 24 hours. SAYY SARGON WAS BLESSING IN HOME "I'm so happy over the way Sargon restored my health and strength that I want to help others by telling them about this splendid new medicine. MRS GLADYS PROUT "For three years, indigestion and biliousness kept me so sick and ner- vous 1 wouldn't sleep over two or three hours all night, and usually got up with such a headache I couldn't do my housework. A sluggish liver kept me badly constipated; I had to take laxatives all the time, and often had dizzy spells, "Sargon has made me {feel Jike a new woman; I can eat anything I please now without a trace of indi- gestion or biliousness, and my ap- petite couldn't be any better, The Sargon Pills, that go with the tonic, regulated me perfectly and I no longer hate headaches or dizzy spells. I'm not nervous any more, sleep fine all night and feel so much stronger my housework is a pleasure. "My husband is also taking Sargon with splendid results and it has been a blessing to our home)" -- Mrs. Gladys Prout, 301 Galedonia Rd, Toronto. Sargon may be obtained in Osh. awa from.Karn's Drug Store. (adv.) "| stocks, before midday and prices turned upward although trading was not hurried. Noon transactions were being made at 42%, off %. Supertest weakened on light sales, selling off 174 points to 28, despite the fact that the forthcom- ing financial report will show the company in a strong financial posi- tion, and net earnings 100 per cent. higher that in 1928. Imperial Oil and Petroleum strenghthened fractionally after a soft opening. Deforest Crosley up 2 to 12, and Montreal Power up to 133% were strong spots among the specialities. The falling tenden- cles of 'Massey-Harris, Cookshutt Plows and other issues dependent on agriculture for much of their revenue, were checked, temporar- ily at least, by a sudden burst of strength in grain quotations this morning. STANDARD MINING EXCHANGE Toronto, Feb. 7.---Continued strength in the dividend paying with the exception of Hol- linger and Teck-Hughes, added col- or to the first half of today's ses- sion on the Standard Mining Ex- change, but at midday the majority of speculative issues were taking a downward direction. Nickel, Noranda, Lake Shore and Dome Mines were firm, with noon prices registering small gains rang- ing from 10 to 40 points. Their huoyancy was forced, however, and it was an apparent effort to move against the general trend. Teck-Hughes veered fractionally lower under profit-taking by spec- ulators who were satisfied with the 20 per cent. appreciation the stock has made in the course of the last eight sessions. One o'clock prices in this issue were around the 6.40 level. Ajax Oil exerted a weak influ- ence in the speculative oil shares, although Eastcrest and Dalhousie were slightly higher. Ajax opened at 1.20 but slipped sharply back to 1.15 with noon transactions be- tween that level and 1.17 off 13 points compared with the preced- ing close. The selling is attribut- ed to pool liquidation and the lack of public interest is such an erra- tic performer. Calmont dropped 6 to 1.73. The Lindsley stocks, Sherritt, Ventures and Falconbridge weak- ened perceptibly. The three prom- fnent speculative stocks, Pend Or- eille, Howey and Amulet, in which there is supposed to be a large short interest were hammered low- er on steady selling from undefin- ed sources, certainly not public Ii- quidation, Noon losses in we {ssues ranged from 3 to 10 cWNts. Abana was off 3, Base Metals off 5 and Sudbury Basin off 16. There fs a lack of public interest in the entire mining board, probably due to the fact that all transactions are now on a cash basis, CHICAGO GRAIN Chicago, Feb, 7.--Wheat scored sharp carly advances today, with much buying based on definite steps, taken toward forming a wheat stab- ilization body paying losses from government funds. setback in Liverpool wheat quota- tions had only a transient disconcert- ing effect here. Opening unchanged to 11 1-2 off, Chicago wheat quickly rose as much as 3 cents above init- ial bottom figures. Corn, oats and provisions developed strength also, with corn starting unchanged to 1-2 lower, and subsequently making a pronounced general upturn, C.P.R. STOCK JUMPS Toronto, Feb. 7.--~Remarkable strength in C.P.R. featured this mor- ning's trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange and was followed by an- nouncement by E. W.

An unexpected | company would be split four shares for one, After its recent appreciation the opening price today at 204 was 1 1-4 up from yesterday's close and at noon 3 gain of a further eight points was registered.
