C. OF C. BANQUET COMBINED WELCOME WITH FAREWELL (Continued From Page 3 able to follow the example which had been set and who possessed all the qualities which were desired for the position he would occupy, Unfeiling confidence in the fut ure of Oshawa was volced by Leon Frazer when called upon to address the gathering, "I believe that the character of the leading citizens of this city in of such a high type and that so great are the residential and in. dustrial advantages offered here that Oshawa must progress and ad. vanes," he declared, | The people should be patient with the work of the Chamber of Com merce he considered. Industries could not be secured in a day but in the past two years much had Been accomplished by way of mak. ing the municipality attractive from | the standpoint of those who might | be seeking new locations, He felt | that a firm foundation Lad been built for future development, Priefly Mr, Frazer referred to the program which the Chamber had purposed to follow when it was organized, here was the harbor development project, with assurance from the Minister of Public Works that it would be continued and that the work would be expedited as the need arose. The paving of Sim. coe street south to the lake had been advocated and this was now halt completed, Representation by the Chamber of Commerce had re- sulted in lower fire Insurance rates for dwellings, Investigation had been made of freight rates to and from Oshawa, The Chamber had been influential in bringing the Skinner Co, here and in the estab lishment of an industrial area, It had desired that an arena should be built to provide accomodation for skating and hockey and through | the generosity of Mr, 8. Meo | Laughlin this had been accomplish. ed, An industrial foundation had been provided and a building se. cured for the accomodation of small industries. These were a few of | the things the speaker cited to in. dicate that the Chamber of Com. | merce had given close attention ro | its major and minor programs, "1 do not take upon myself the credit for this work," Mr, Frazer commented, 'but rather it is due tu the co-operation of the directors and members and the loyal support which they have always given me." He also pald tribute to the splens Md manner In which Mayor Mite chell and the city counell had co- operated with the Chamber, { "This is a most graceful gesture | on your part," stated Col, R, J. McCormick in replying to the wel come which was given him, The Chamber of Commerce hay | been following an ambitious pro- | gram, Col, McCormick belleved and he termed ity achievements as mag: | nificent, In succeeding Mr, Franer he considered that he had been given a splendid example to follow and he trusted that he would re. celve that co-operation and sup. port which has been the lot of the former 'secretary, Oshawa had made groat strides in the last few years he thought and was regarded with Windsor, Niagara Falls and Hamilton as one of the four cities in Ontario which have bade the greatest progress within the last decade, "I want your esteem, your res. pect and your friendship," Col, Mo- Cormick stated. "I know that these are precious gifts which you will not hestow carelessly but 1 hope to prove worthy of them, It will be my duty to build the sup- erstructura con the foundation of your Chamber of Comnierce work hich has been so well and truly ald.' While regretting very 'much that Mr, Frazer was leaving Osh- awa, Mayor TT, BH, Mitchell hestowed a waem welcome upon the new secretary and Industrial commis. sioner and 'asgpured him that he would be given every assistance In his work. The pity council, he claimed, was willing to work with the Chamber of Commerce in any matter which might be for the benefit of the city, His Worship intimated that the council was seriously considering the erection of a new administra- tion building this year, and also a new police station, while in addi- tion it was prepared to start upon the new subway, These projects could be made possible through a reduction in the paving, sidewalk and sewer program, At the first of the year he had favored retrench- ment but it would be a sorry state of affairs If every municipality kept its purse strings tied tight at a time such as this, "Our greatest need is for new industries," Mayor Mitchell affirm- ad, "and the Chamber of Commerce is worthy of the support of every publig-apirited citizen," A high tribute to the work of the retiving secretary and Industria) commissioner was paid by Ald, Wm, Boddy, chairman of the general purpose committee, ol "I eame in contact with Mr, Fraz- or a great deal and he was always right on the job," Ald, Boddy sald He extended a welcome to Col McCormick and wished him all suc cess in his new work, "This Is an occasion for regret and cheerfulness,' commented George W, McLaughlin, former pre sident of the Chamber of Com branches in Montreal, Winnipeg As § finitely this MORE type; than merely of they have given Front St, Last, and wit), and Vancouver afe Manufacturers they have accomplished something in manufacturing office requirements us the UTMOST in MODERN safes and all that they may mean in present day business They accordingly know Time stitution could carry but not TO-DAY, mre a firm of Inestimal)c wits when a business house or a large value for us to business on business with antiquated office equipment light the modern efficient office methods and equipment means that we will be outdistanced by our com petitor who is intensely keen as to all the latest and most efficient requisites tand a fifirm such as J, & J, which they I'nylor Lad, Saf so deftly manufacture and which we for the conduction of his business, So that it pays our business executives particularly te under Works, The Safe had the pleasure of examining is especially adapted to modern business and modern offices, Fvery progressive business concern should have one, for Taylor makes a safe specially suited to your own particular require ment In short it pays to modernize in this era, , and modern equipment, but the of us possess safes that are real relics modern offices, modern factorie fact remains that man of the days long gone by, We most all desire So that whilst we honor this notable Toronto manufacturing concern the writer is not only honoring them for their business accomplishments, but also endeavoring to effect a hond of under standing hetween business merce "We regret that Mr, Fraz executives and firm alike, that shall result in their mutual benefit now and in the years to come, Fleet Foot bers of the Boys and Girls 'join the FLEET FOOT Athletic Club Shoes.
