Geo. Township Council of East Whitby Wants Water Supply Extended to North Oshawa Committee Including Whole Council Appointed to Dis- cuss Matter With Local Public Utilities' Commis- sion MANY RESIDENTS PETITION FOR WATER Former City Council Refus- ed to Extend Water Ser- vice Into Township, But Commission Is Not Guid- ed by This Principle -- Acting upon a petition presented by C. E. McLaughlin, and 27 other residents of North Oshawa, the East Whitby township council decided recently to appoint a committee to take up with the Oshawa Public Utilities Commission the question of extending the city water supply to North Oshawa. The committee, which has been given power to act, will include the whole couneil. During the term which. R. B. Preston was mayor of this city, the principle was laid down that no more water mains would be extend- © idnto the township. Since that time, however, the old water com- mission, which formerly conducted the operation of the city's water- works system, has passed out of existence and has been replaced by the public utilities commission which possess much wider powers. The opinion was recently eypressed by members of this new body that they would not be guided by prin- ciples laid down by any former council. Negotiations between the East Whitby township council and the Pyblic utilities commission will therefore be watched with consid- erable interest. The report of the last meet- as prepared by P. G. Purves, town- ship clerk, follows: -- : Council met this day with all the members present. Reeve Ross occupied the chair. Minutes of for- mer meeting were read and adopt- ed.

The branches represented at the conference, which was presided over by Rev. E. Ralph Adye, of Cobourg, the district representative on the provincial executive, were Cobourg, Campbellford;, Bowmanville, Osh- awa, Whitby, Brooklin, Brock Township, Uxbridge and Beaverton, The officers of each branch present- ed reports on their present cond!- tion and future prospects, these re- ports showing that the Legion has made splendid progress in the district in the last year, and has bright hopes of future development, The Rev. Mr. Adye, in his address to the meeting, said the vital idea behind it was the promotion of a greater spirit of co-operation be- tween the branches in the districts, and with the provincial command. The Canadian Legion, he said, had proven to the people of Canada that its soldiers could serve thelr country equally as well in peace as in war, and it faced the future with high hopes, and with confid- ence that it would merit dnd retain the respect and support of the public. There was very little un- organizéd territory in the zone, he said, but every branch was asked to do its share to extend the field of service of the legion. F. J. Picking, of St. Thomas, provincial first vice-president and honorary secretary of the provin- cial command, led in a discussion of the new financial and bookkeep- ing which has been instituted, to take effect from October 1, and during this discussion much useful 2.84 6.00 6.76 15.69 17.77 17.00 31.26 309.56 186.34 2.74 I Shaw, relief ....0e....

Convinced that conditions in Oshawa and through- out Canada are fundamentally sound, they share the steadily growing opinion that things every- where can be improved by taking a more optimistic and hopeful out- ook. They therefore have nothing but commendation for the merch- d@nts and others who are endeavor- ing to make Prosperiy Week a success, - T. W. Joyce Commenting to The Times, T. W. Joyce, manager of the Dominion Bank, stated today, "Any movement which will have the effect of im- proving conditions is worthy of everyone's support, If we want talk in terms of prosperity, We will then be sowing the right seed and will reap the harvest of renewed confidence and greater enterprise." WwW. R. Gelke W. R. Gelke, president of 'the Pedlar People Ltd. and prominent local manufacturer, stated that he endorsed the principle of Prosper- ity Week. "It is a commendable and worthy effort in the right di- rection," he said. Rev. KE. Halston Approval of the aims and princip- les of Prosperity Week was volced today by Rev. E. Harston, minister of Simcoe Street United Church, who said, "Pull up the blinds--let in the sunlight, Prosperity Week is here, the beginning of brighter and better days. It is an appeal to all that is heroic in the city's life. A demand for practical pat- riotism and everyone must prove his citizenship by sacrifice. Optim- ists are the advance guards of pro- gress. Listen to the blasts from their trumpets--the clear clarion call to rally the forces, march across the devastating spirit of pes- simism and capture our city with a new true optimism." ¥. L. Mason Prosperity Week has the hearty endorsation of T. L, Mason, chair- man of the Public Utilities Commis- sion and secretary-treasurer of The Pedlar People Ltd, "There is plenty of money in the country." Mr. Mas- on pointed out, and if we can only get it into ciranlation there will be better times for all." W. M. Gilbert The opinion that Prosperity Week was worthy of the support of everyone was expressed by W, M, Gilbert, president of the Oshawa Lumber Co., Ltd. "This thing which we call Pros- perity, can not be obtained by any one Firm or individual, at the ex- pense of others, It is a collective thing," he said. "Prosperity Week should, in our opinion, be supported most heart. fly by all trades people of Oshawa, as well as all citizens, for the very reason that, if it does nothing else, it will at least have accomplished collective thinking on the subject of the stimulation of business." and valuable information was im- parted to the branch officials who were present. Comrade Picking warmly congratulated the branches in the zone on their interest In Legion work, and asserted that Zone No. 12 was the outstanding zone in Ontario for organization, although some parts of northern Ontario were giving it a hard run. M. McIntyre Hood, of Oshawa, second vice-president of the pro- vincial command, spoke on organ- ization work within the zone, and on the necessity of a continually increasing membership, and the de- velopment of new branches where- ever possible. - He urged the branch officers to make full use of the seryjces of the Legion adjustment bureau in fighting the claims of disabled comrades, saying that this kind of work was the foundation of service on which the Legion had been built. Those who were present at the conference, in addition to Comrades Adye, Picking and Hood, were as follows: Cobourg Branch: President Jack- son, Acting Secretary King and Col. Hopper. Bowmanville: President R, M. Cotton and Vice-President W. J. Hoare, Oshawa: Secretary A, H. Power and Financial Secretary A. Glad- man. . Whitby: President H, James ana Secretary E, M.

At the close of the meeting the thanks of the conference were ex- tended to the congregation and of- ficers of St. John's Church for the use of the parish hall as a meeting place, and the delegates passed a pledge of loyal support to Comrade Adye In his work as district rep- resentative. ber of the city's leading citizens | prosperity we must first think and' W.

The whole "business section will be strung with colored lights and special flood lights will make it bright as day. . Just a Dollar Just what will a dollar do in Prospérity Week? It will pure chase a useful article for the pur- chaser, will make a small profit for the merchant, make another small profit for the manufacturer, will necessitate the restocking of the article, meaning that another will have to be manufactured in its place, thus giving work to someone which will enable him to spend a dollar and keep the wheels of industry rolling. Farmer's Day Leaders of the Prosperity Week movement have made arrangements for a farmer's day during the week, On this day merchants will make a special effort to provide attrac- tive bargains for our rural neigh- bors. Better Business Why is it that the majority of Oshawa merchants are co-operat- ing in Prosperity Week? It is be- cause they know that the tide has turned and that Canada and Osh- awa in particular is once more on the highway to Prosperity. A boost for Oshawa means a boost for Canada and a boost for Canada means a boost for the Empire. A Roaring Welcome At nine o'clock Saturday morning when Prosperity Week is ushered into being all factory whistles and all church bells will blow and ring to signify the welcome of the com- mencement of a greay era of better times. Churches Co-oOperate All Oshawa Churches will re- member Prosperity Week in their services on Sunday.

Shopping Morning A special shopping morning has been arranged for Wednesday of Prosperity Week and merchants are making a special effort to pre- sent to the public bargains that have never before been offered in Oshawa and which will likely never be repeated. Even Old Scrooge, if he were alive today, would not be able to withstand the urge to spend. The Firemen Again Whenever there is anything to be done in Oshawa in a big way, the Fire Department are never found lacking in enthusiasm and Monday of Prosperity Week will see them in action strutting their stuff in the business section, Come and see one of the best equipped and best manned fire departments in Ontario in action, The Motor Show During the entire duration of Prosperity Week the Oshawa Auto- mobile dealers will stage a giant motor show, Oshawa being the Motor City of the Dominion this part of the program should 'go over big." . Come and see what Oshawa is contributing to the country in automobile designs, en- gineering features, and bigger and better motor cars. Aeroplane Stunts The general public are asked to hold their breath, in fact they will have to, for the aeroplane which will be a noon feature every day in Prosperity Week. One of the Most daring stunt flyers in Can- ada will flaunt danger in an effort to provide thrills for citizens of the city. Real Action There will be real action on the last day of Prosperity Week when all horse shoe pitchers within a radius of twenty miles will battle for the valuable prizes to be given for this event. If you want to see the experts going over the top be present at this event. Band Concerts Both Oshawa Bands will 'give concerts during the week and this will probably be their last appear- ance this year so do not miss them, Merchants Have Made Great Effort and Now Anticipate Fine Response from Public 'JO October 11 to October 18, inclusive, will be known as Prosperity Week in Oshawa, Firmly believing in the fundamental prosperity of this city and of Can- .ada, local merchants have spent much energy, time and money in order to offer to the public splendid values in all lines of merchandise~-values which may never 'be repeated for some time, the buyer are genuine and if the public responds, as we are confident it will respond, mutual good wi result for all and a helpful spirit of optimism and pro- gress replace that of depression and gloom. merchants who have generously co-operated in this movement I offer sincere thanks and I further wish to express hearty appreciation of the wonderful as- sistance which has been rendered by the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce, and others who are helping to make Prosperity Week an unqualified success.

Assistance To Aid Oshawa Unemployed MENTAL HEALTH Government Help May Be Requested for Paving of "Simcoe Street South Fromy New Subway to Harbor SUBWAY MATTER MAY BE DISCUSSED Approach to Federal Gove ernment Must Be Made Through Provincial Aus thorities -- Appointment - This Afternoon vy { | A special committee of the city council is going to Toronto, today, for the purpose of interviewing the Hon, Geo. 8. Henry, acting premier of Ontario, with regard to assise tance which the government will lend the municipality in coping with its unemployment problem. The acting premier has been very busy, during the past two weeks, receiving and conferring with dele« gations from various municipalities but he has arranged to meet the local committee in the Parliament buildings at three o'clock this aftere noon. Government aid in the paving of Simcoe street south, from the new C. N. R. subway to the harbor, is one of the principal matters which the delegation plans to take up with Mr. Henry, If this stretch of road should be paved, it is obvious that it would provide a great deal of work for the unemployed. It is also probable that the ques+ tion of the substitution of pick and shovel, for steam shovel, in the new subway job will be discussed with the acting premier, This is off course really a federal, and not & provincial matter, but the council understands that it must make all approaches for government assise tance through the medium of the province, There are several other matters concerning the solution of the un- employment problem which the committee will edeavor to have Mr. Henry clarify. Ald, P. A. McDonald, until ree cently chairman of the finance com« mittee, has not beeen included in the| special committee and he has made it clear that he considers this a personal affront. ; The following aldermen are on the deputation, Ald. George Hart, Ald, Wm, Boddy, Ald. A. Cameron, Ald. Wm, Sulley, Ald. Thos. Knox and City Engineer Smith, Mayor T. B. Mitchell will also be included in the delegation. BUSINESS GOOD | Mr. Wm.
