THINK HARMONY FIRES BOYS' WORK Fire Marshal Does Not Take Serious View of Trouble- some Fires Fire Marshall E. P. Hey of Toronto was in Oshawa todfy and in company with Chief Elliott in- vestigated the several mysterious fires that have occurred recently in Oshawa and East Whitby Township. So far as the fires at Harmony were concerned the Fire Marshall has reached the conclusion as result of his investigations that these bore the ear-marks of being the work of boys or youths who have taken this means of playing pranks on the community and au- thorities and he is of the opinion that to pay serious attention to them is only likely to increase their activity along this line, While desirous of seeing the culprits apprehended Mr, Heaton does not think anything is to) he gained by detailing men to fur- ther watch the Terwillegar prop- erty, where the fires have occur- red, as it is now unoccupied, and the boys or youths responsible now realize the serious results of their pranks, and it is his opinion that no further alarm need be felt by the residents of" that com- munity.

It is doubtful whether the city's school: trustees have ever had pre- sented to them a document giving more accurate information concern- ing its finances than that which was produced last night. With total expenditures for 1930 budgeted at $287,623.60, giving an es- timated or accumulated budget to Sept. 30, on a pro rate basis, at $200,262.50, the report shows that ac- tual expenditures totalled $189,740.72, or $10,521.78 below the-estimate, Ad- ministration, up until Sept. 30, cost $3527.78, an excess of $112.78 over the estimate.
