All evening a happy crowd milled around the booths or skated on the ice surface which had been lef! uncovored, the climax being reach- ed with the parade of costumed skaters before the judges, who found themselves faced with no light task in trying to select the winners. Colorful Costumes Venice and New Orleans hogst of their "Mardi Gras" the gayest day in all the year when fancy costumes depicting + queer monsters and ghostly creaturse, and harlequins, mask and smiles, and sougs and laughter are the order of the day. Last night there were all of these at the Kiwanis Carnival. In the centre of the arema on the space left for those in costume to skate, there were tumbling clowns, ro!- licking sailor boys, straight tin sol- diers, graceful gypsies, brave tor- eadors, a& black eat cr two, a fiend- ish looking Mephisto, the inevitable comic "old lady", ever so many tramps, a few "Bowery Sals" and representatives from many nations with colorful costumes, It would bs impossible to describe every dress but the variety in color and style lent to the spectator in the grand- stands the most pleasant kaleido- scopic ospect. Added to these gay cos'umes was the festive attire of the buliding itself. Flags---Union Jacks, Canadian and others were hung from the roof and their dis tinguished "red, white and blue, was contrasted strorgly by the gaudy decorations of the seven booths that were built on the prom- ecnade around the edge of the ice surface. At nine o'clock the judging of costumes began, and as heard from one of the judges it wi~ no easy task comiig to a decision of a winner for every class. In fact it was so impossible a number of special prizes were awarded. The Winners There were elzht different class- es and the result of the judging is as follows: Fancy Dress--Boys, under 15 years--1st, ¥enneth Johnston, cos- tume "Radio Man'; 2nd, Jack Mountenay, costume "Frenchman" Fancy Dress--Girls under 15 years--1st, Jeanatte Darling, cos- tume "Fairy"; 2nd, Joan Schofield costume "Gypsy".

Hartman and her son A. M. Hartman who wore suits made of pictures of motor cars with hats bearing "Motor City" in large let ters. Many Clowns The children had been promised clowns and it is certain they were not disappointed for there werc clowns in profusion, but those who made the biggest hit, were the two in costumes, too impossible to describe, who kept.the audience in fits of laughter with thelr capers and foolish antics. We would like to give them names but find noth- ing more suitable than\just clowns. Last night was once when begin- ners at skating could be perfectly at thoir ease for with a colorful costume to display shaky ankles and uncertain knees were not not- iced. ! Ukrainian Dancers Those who were fortunate in getting toward the north end of the arena after the judging of the costumes were rewarded by seeing some vory excellent dancing done by certain of the Ukrainian colon- ists in the south of the eity, These dancers wore their native costumes, which are masterpleces of em- broidery, and hand work. One girl who was interviewed by The Times as to her costume stated that fit had all been made by her mother. It was a most elaborate dress with garnet skirt and at different lenghts, insertions of dainty 'fine lace, a white blouse of soft woollén material, with the sleeves most richly embroidered in black and red. There was an overjacket of black velvet. This too was heavily embroidered around the edge with bright colors.. Her jewellery con- sisted of bright beads and brace- lets, The headress was a crown of bright flowers tied at the back with streamers of red, yellow, green and blue ribbons, The Lucky Numbers To some the drawing for the lucky numbers was perhaps the most important event of the whole evening. - This did pot take place until nearly eleven o'clock. As a result of the draw C, A. Gerrard, 62 Gibbon street was awarded the first prize, a radio, and G. A. Al- lison, 355 Mary street, the second a ton of coal, and Mrs. 8. Savis tho third, forty gallons of gasoline, The drawing of the tickets was the final attraction and it was not long afterwards that the orcwd dis persed. Many Booths Gally decorated booths, adver- tising their presence by means of Sirens, Bells, Gongs, Whistles, Horns and the coaxing voices of the high pressure salesmen who were in charge of the booths, prov- ed a great attraction to the crowd. "Bob" Smith and an energetic group of helpers had charge of the Sweater booth and they certainly made things move along. Like most of the booths, the patrons were given a group of numbers for which they were required to pay a certain sum of money. Then «4 the wheel was spun, and with an- and beating hearts, the players watched the wheel slowly come to a stop. Then they looked to see ifftheir group oi numbers included the winning number, If it did, a* broad smile, it it didn't, a smile and another try. 3 "Bill" Burns distributed - Hams, etc., to the holders of the lucky numbers at his booth, This was a very popular booth. Their horn attracted much attention. helpers had charge of the Chicken booth. There will be a great many chicken dinners in the city today, thanks to the efforts of the boys iu this booth, Jack Coleman, aided by George Siberry and several other ener- getic salesmen, were in charge of the Men's Wear booth, A pair of socks or a tie could be won at this booth for the small sum of ten cents, providing you held the win- ning number. Dr. Hazlewood was in charge of one of the most popular booths in the Carnival, Everybody wanted a blanket or a rug and before the night was over, all the stock had been sold. Roland Virtue gave out Elec- trical Ware to the holders of the winning numbers at his booth. Alex Ross and his merry assist- ants had a great time coaxing the men to take a chance at their booth. This was the most gally colored booth in the Arena, "Bert" Smith was official start- er, bookie and judge at his booth. It was there that the people had a chance to play the ponies ana ney did so with varied success No carnival would be complete without one of the famous "'Bingo' games. "Mike" Joyce had charge of this booth and they were always crowded. All persons who were anxious of what the future held for them, were enlightened by Madame Zed- da, the Palmist. Last, but not least, there was Alex Hall's busy refreshment booth. At this booth, you had to await your turn before you could be served. Alex had a large band of helpers but everyone was kept more thdn busy. It was a great night, Every- body enjoyed themselves and the Kiwanis Funds benefitted to a gront extent by the patronage giv- en to the first big carnival held in the new Oshawa Arena, ~ SPEED Ephraim--That hosts ob mine an de fastest hoss in dé worl', He: eon run a mile a minute "ceptin' foh jest' one thing.

Local Hairdresser Ranks High at the Toronto Style Show Proof was seen in yesterday's Globe that Bowmanville is just as far ahead in the matter of hair- dressing as any other place in On- tario, for on the front page of the city news section was a picture of a lady who had her hair marcelled in a Bowmanville beauty parlor and later had it shown at the Hair- dressers convention which is now sitting at the King Edward Hotel in Toronto. Miss Bunice Callum who for some months was the lady hair- dresser at Miller's, barbers shop, was leaving to take a new position in Toronto and before leaving last Monday morning dropped into the besuty parlor operated by Mrs Geo, Young in the Cowan block. Two days later, when attending the con- vention in Toronto, Miss Callum showed her marcel in the style show and the work was considered good* enough to grace the front page of the Toronto Globe. Mrs. Young is a proud lady to- day to think that an ordinary sam- ple of her work should receive special notice at the cenvention. It was never intended,she told The Times, to have it shown and she did not know it had been unti) she saw the 'picture in the Globe' yes- terday. a W. R. Strike is on Executive Ontario Prohibition Union W. Ross "Strike, Bowmanville law- yer and prominent temperance work- er of the town, was elected as a member of the executive of the On- tario ProMfbition Union at the an- nual meeting of that body held in Toronto this week, Mr. Strike has been closely connected with temper- ance work in Durham county for a considerable time and this appoint- ment marks the acknowledgment by the Union of his good work. Good Ice May Mean More Hockey Games Skating enthusiasts who had be- gun to believe that with the warm weather of the past week their skating would come to an end, were pleased to see the weather take a turn for the colder, feeling agsured that if it was possible to have ice at all Norm. Taylor would be right on the job with the goods, They were not disappointed and their faith in Norm was justified for he had a hard sheet of ice again early in the week, So now cach evening one sees a great num- ber heading for the rink deter- mind to get in/ plenty of skating be- fore another warm spell checks this recreation. If the weather will permit there will likely be seen some more bockey with the shieks as the stars. The Reo Wolverines have promised to come down for an exhibition game and will pro- bably do so if the ice keeps in good condition, : JOHN H. TRULL The death cccurred at his resi- dence in Bowmanville yesterday, of John H. Trull, a resident of the town for many years, Mr. Trull who. has been ill for some months, wag born in Darling- ton township and for a great many years farmed in the north end of the township, A few years ago he retired and took up his residence on Church street, where he 'jas resided "ever since.

My appetite picked up, 1 quit having indigestion, the rheu- matic pains commenced to loosen their grips and I gained weight and 'strength without a let-up right on through the fourth bottle.

BEAVERBROOK WILL AID TORIES | IF THEY AID HIM (Continued from Page 1) the dominions and representatives of the colonies for new and ex- panding trade within the empire, on a basis of mutual concessions and help, until we have first set- tiled the bedrock principle that this country must have for the purpose of these friendly negotiations? "I beg Mr. Baldwin to have the courage of his own fiscal convic: tions and trust the British people, to give them an opportunity of saving themselves by adopting a fiscal policy {in the wisdom of which Mr. Baldwin himself be- leves." The Conservative leader has de- clared the policy of an economical- ly united empire as the Conserva- tive ideal, hut free trade within the empire is at the moment im- ossible. He also declared the Un ited Empire party could only re- sult in division of the anti-Labor forces, and Lord Beaverbrook met this with the following declara- tion. "1 have no ambition except the hope of being able to bring my countrymen in all parts of the em- pire a measure of prosperity, con- vast resources and immense wealth. Nothing i# further from my thoughts than to disrupt or destroy any party of ate. "The United Empire party Is not a political party but an eco- nomic party. It takes no interest in old party issues. I should wel- come the return of Mr, Baldwin to Downing Street if he goes with hands free to earry out the policy in which T understand, he believes, and in which a large majority of the Conservative party believes." And to the further Conservative charge that the implied duties om foreign foodstuff would rafse the price of food, Lord Beaverbrook replied he was afraid that it free trade within the empire was not effected, then the production of foodstuffs in Britain and the em- pire would continue to decline un- til they were completely exposed to the mercy of the foreigner. A challenge by Lord Rothermere chief supporter of Lord Beaver- brook, has been delivered to Sir John Ferguson, the Conservative who won a by-election in Twick- enham as a 'ae trader. Lord Rotheermre says the Unit- ed Empire party will run a candi- date in this division, and if he or she does not poll more votes than Sir John, then Lord Rothermere will pay $10,000 to local charity, providing Sir John pays a similar sum to charity in the event the United Empire candidate gets more votes. - The United Empire party will select candidates to fight the seats of all the alleged Conservative free traders fn the south of Eng- land, and thereafter will fight those who expressed belief in the 'nited Empire party, and then de- olared they would remain with the Conservatives. OSHAWA HARBOR VOTE IS RENEWED (Continued from Page 1) used, $34,000 of the appropriation this year is a re-vote, while only $16,000 is a new appropriation. "I am sorry that the government did not sce its way clear to give Oshawa a further appropriation on the harbor this year," Mayor Mitchell said. "We had hoped that further work might have been done, in mak- ing the harbor more suitable for nav- igation. However, we are thankful for the appropriation that has been made, and are glad to learn that the work started last year will be com- pleted." It was expected that the dredging operations would be resum- ed as soon as possible, and that the harbor would be opened for naviga- tion this summer, the mayor stated. Manufacturers Waiting "We have one or two manufactur. ing companies," said Mayor Mitchell, "looking for a location on our wa- tertront. The Chamber of Commerce has these inquiries in hand. Their location in Oshawa, however, depends entirely on the development of the harbor this summer, and there are also' certain other developments in that part of the city which largely depend on harbor development." Last Year's Contract The contract let last year pro- vides for the diversion of the Osh- awa creek so that it flows into the Wilson road creek, and the diver sion of the Wilson road creek su that the waters from both creeks will flow outside the harbor basin instead of inside it, and also for the dredging out of a harbor basin 480 feet by 550 feet in size. The diversion of the creeks will pre- vent the filling up of the basin with silt to a great extent. The new basin will give ample room for the turning of most of the vessels now plying the lower lakes. Most of the work on the diver- sion of the creekes was done last fall, while a considerable amount of dredging work in the harbor slip. which is being dredged to a width of 175 fe~t; was also done. Au dredging is to a depth of 16 ee The council late last year and early this year made representa tions to the government asking that further appropriations wou'. be made to further deepen the har bor and 'possibly enlarge it from the present plans, ro accommodates the larger lake vessels that will be able to come down from the upper lakes when the now Welland cana) is opened. Provision tor docks and other works was also asked. There is still a possibility that further appropm: ations for the Oshawa harbor win be made in the supplemontary est: 'mates, SORES HEAL IN QUICKEST TIME KNOWN 1 | j 1 Other Estimates : In addition to the amount set! aside for Oshawa Harbor, several other items of interest to Eastern Ontario are included in the esti-# mates, Kingston fares rather bet.' ter than other centres, largely be- cause of the work necessary nt providing for the huge elevator' which is being built at Little Cate} araqui Bay, adjacent to Kingston.
