WHITBY PEOPLE ARE PURCHASING TOWN DEBENTURES Brisk Demand for Recent Issues at Par and Ac- crued Interest A brisk demand for local deben- ture issues is reported by Town Clerk and Treasurer John R. Frost. The debenture issues, authorized by the ratepayers at the January elections, and also an issue for sidewalks built in 1928 and 1929, are now on the market and many local citizens are purchasing them at par and accrued interest, The price obtained in Whitby by the treasurer is much higher than that offered hy Toronto brokers. At the council meeting on Monday evening last tenders for deben- tures were opened, but the finance committe, considering that the prices were unsatisfactory, decided to sell them locally. The fact that local citizens are asking for the debentures is taken to mean that they have faith in the town's future and ability to pay. Not since 1854, the year of incorporation, has the town failed to meet its obligations, and today it is in a sound financial position. It is worthy of note that in the past few years, nearly all of the smaller debenture issues have been disposed of locally, The interest on them therefore goes into the pockets of Whitby people.

The business in force is now $461, 310,653, and there is every pros- pect that the half billion mark in assurances in force will be reachea during 1930, which by happy coin- cidence is the Diamond Jubilee Year of the Company. The net earnings of the year have again shown a substantial increase, am- ounting to $5,043,035.40, repre- senting $46.95 per $1,000 of total assets, which now aggregate $107.- 408,986.43, and the special reserves and surplus funds have increased vides for possible adverse conting- ancies.

For most of the game R.M.C. showed a marked superiority and their own poor shooting as well as Colwell's fine work in the nets kept the score down. Bowmanville Starts Fast The visitors started with plenty 'of flash, checked hard and close and were playing a protty brand of combination, but they failed to hold the pace and the cadets con- tinually walked through the de- fence to test Colwell. Bowmanville scored the first goal in loss than three minutes when Piper poked the rubber past White after a scramble to the side. A minute later Colwell made a good save on Rainnie's shot but in trying to clear it the rubber went in for the cadets' first goal. R.M.C. started to play better hockey, but. missed many chances by wild 'shooting while Bowmanville seemed to find the pace too fast and their team play suffered. R. M. C. The second period saw R.M.C. secure an advantage when they outplayed the visitors and worked through the Bowmanville defence time after time. Moyse played a strong game for the visitors, but was outlucked half a dozen times. The visitors were finding difficul- ty in broaking the R.M.G. defence while the cadets missed out when thelr shooting was ineffective. The period was almost halt over when J. Carr skated through from his own defence and drove a high shot past Colwell and three minutes later repeated on a brilliant rush.

SHORTHORN MEA HOLD ANNUAL SALE Fairacres Minstrel Brings $200--Average $130 Per Head The annual sale of the Durham Shorthorn Association was held at Beiths Stables on Thursday after- noon with average results. The highest price paid was for a male Fairacres Minstrel, owned by C. H. Mumford of Hampton, which went for $200. There were 14 males in the sale and 10 females, the latter making a better showing than did the former. The average price for fe- males was $137 and for males $127 making the average of all head about $130. This was consid- ered very fair by J. Y. Kellough, agricultural representative for the county, who was in attendance.

FINED $25 FOR CRUELTY TO HENS William Tanner Pleads Guilty in Local Police Court William Tanner of Liberty St., Bowmanville, appeared in police court yesterday charged with hav- ing caused suffering to a number of hens by failing to feed and water them. Tanner pleaded guilty but at the request of A. W. S. Greer of Oshawa, who appeared for the Humane Society, evidence was given to enable the court to fully understand the case. 1t had been brought to the notice of the chief of police that the hens on the Liberty street ranch werc not being properly cared for and a visit was paid to the premises. The hens were found to be with- out food and water and very weak, many suffering from roup from the bad conditions and others lying dead, The birds appeared very hun- gry and thirsty and pecked at the snow on the chief's boots when he entered the pens. The inspector of the Humane Society in Oshawa, Nelson Baird, was called. and as a result of his inspection of the ranch the charges were laid. Tanner claimed that he was to have purchased them from a Mr. Brownlee but the deal was mever closed and he could not afford to keep them for scmeone else, He showed accounts proving that he had bought food for the hems but told the court that he was just keeping them from starving. Magis- trate Ward fined the accused $25 and costs the fine to be paid out of the proceeds of the sale of the fowl. A buyer happened to be ir the court and the hens were sold immediately and the fine paid. NEW OAKLAND V-THPE FIGHT (Continued from Page 3) ample space for liberal water pass- ages between cylinders 'and around valves. The heavy, interchangeable, counterweighted crankshaft bearings are bronze-backed and babbit-faced. Retain Old Wheelbase Another feature contributing to the solidity of the power plant is the fact that both blocks of cylinders and the crankcases are formed in a single compact, heavily ribbed casting, The compact design of the power plant is indicated by the dimensions of the block, 25 9-16 inches long by 18 3-4 inches wide by 13 15-16 inches high. The comparatively short design of the V-type engine has enabled the designers to retain the wheelbase of the Oakland six--117 inches--while allowing even more passenger room. _ The valve assembly is horizontal in design, working from a sturdy, three-bearing camshaft which ex- tends through the "V" of the two- cylinder banks and is protected by removable covers, rendering it ex- tremely accessible. The valve spring which eliminate spring surge and prevent breakage. A radical but thoroughly practical departure from conventional cylinder block design is found in the two- plane cylinder heads. Adoption of this unique design places the com- bustion chamber directly over the cylinder head and locates the valves close to the cylinder bores, thus forming a compact chamber of ideal shape and providing maximum uni. formity of volume and compression, There are seven smartly styled Oake land bodies, The foundation for big egg produc- tion is health, vigor and a propensity for laying.
