Institute for Blind Made Before Kiwanis Club ev. Arthur Pickering, Him- self Blind, Tells of Work Which Institute Performs for Sightless TRESSES NEED OF PREVENTIVE MEANS ir dnstitute Spent Over $1,300 in One Year in Preventive Work Among Children of Ontario County, Speaker Claims An carnest appeal for the sup- port of the Canadian National Institute for the Blind and a com- prehensive survey of the work "which the institute is accomplish- "ing among the blind and in assist- ing those who are threatened with blindness, was made by Rev. Ar- thur Pickering, eastern representa- tive of the Institute, in an address before the Kiwanis Club at its noon luncheon yesterday. At the conclusion of his remarks, Mr, Pickering was assured that the Kiwanis Clup would lend its sup- port to a campagin to raise money for the institute which may be staged here next year. If the citizens of Oshawa give money for the support of the work, they are assured that they will get somthing in return for their donations, Mr. Pickering stated, and pointed out that last year the Canadian National Institute for the Blind had spent over $1,300 in Ontario county in the prevention of blindness among children. The Institute is in need of support, he said, as aside from the government grants it must rely upon the generosity of service clubs and women's organizations to finance its undertakings among the blind throughout the Domin- ion. "We have no canvassers,'" the speaker said emphatically. Rev. Mr. Pickring, who is him- self blind but is not allowing his misfortune to prove an OVerpow- ering handicap, explained clearly how the Institute helped those who had lost their sight to re- adjust themselves to live useful lives. After they have graduated from the school for the blind at Brantford, he said that the In- stitute kept in constant touch with blind persons, loaned them books in Braille from its special library, endeavored to establish them in renumerative positions and was at all times solicitous for their wel- fare. "No one can realize the calam- ity. of blindness until he has him- self been blinded," he stated earnestly. "It is for this. reason that.I am andeavoring to devote my life in helping those who are afflicted as I am." The value of prevention could not be too strongly stressed by Mr. Pickering. Carelessness, re- sulting in serious accidents, was occasionally the cause of blindness, he said. Other causes could be traced to such diseases as scarlet fever and measles.

ARRESTED IN OHIO A further development of the wholesale crimes committed a few months ago in the vicinity of Co- bourg, Napanee, Barrie Aylmer, Lon don and York County, by a gang of robbers operating chiefly from Nap- anee, Cobourg and Whitby was the arrest of Allen Archer and his wife Claudia Archer in Pinneault, Ohio. They were brought back to Toronto last night by officers of the pro- vincial police who estimated that there were some thirty-six charges of housebreaking against Archer. Provincial police regard the ar- rest as very important. According provineial police the territory cover- ed by the thefts extended from Nap- anee to London. A considerable amount of the loot was recovered in the vicinity of Whitby and Oshawa.

HARSTON Takes Sermon From Words! of Psalmist David | FS | "He has brought me out of a horrible pit and set my foot upon a rock." Using these words of the Psalmist David, Rev, E. Harston preached a message of encourage- ment to all who are floundering in doubt, skepticism, sorrow or dirfi- culty, at the second of a series of special evangelistic services at Sim- coe Street United Church, last night. A number attended the service and found it at once a source of comfort and inspiration. Many people, the speaker declar- ed, feel that like David, they are in a pit. They may be lost ia doubt or crushed by some burden which makes life tremendously difficult. But no matter what the trouble may be, if they would on- ly turn to God, He would lift them out of their difficulties and set them upon firm ground so that they could face the trials and problems of life without fear. Rev. Mr, Harston drew an illus- tration from his own life when on the second Easter of his service overseas, he was sickened by the carnage and felt that the very shell holes mocked his former belief in the goodness and wisdom of God. But on the fringe of a shell hole his attention was drawn to a few blades of grass, peeping through, and a tiny wildflower. The sight of these things completely restored his confidence and he felt like one who had been brought out of "an horrible pit." Mr, Ruthven MacDonald, well known Toronto baritone, led in hearty congregational singing with J. H. Renwick, choir director, at the organ and Mrs. -R. A. Holden Rev; J. 8.

Late Joseph Boyer Was Re- garded as Noted Inventor, Astute Business Man and Honored Citizen Joseph Boyer, native of Pickering whose death was announced in The Times recently, was a very promin- ent business men of Detroit, Mich., and the newspapers in that city paid great tribute to his sterling qualities in their columns. It is from the col- umns of the Detroit Free Press that a, full histery of his interesting car- cer is taken, Mr. Boyer was born on a ffm near Pickering, Ontario, in Septem- ber, 1848, and gained his early edu cation in rural schools; while quite young showed a genius for fixing farm machinery. In 1866 he began an apprenticeship in the machinists trade in Oshawa which lasted three years. Then he moved to St. Louis where he set up a business for him- self in a small machine shop. It was in this shop he first became as- sociated with William Seward Bur- roughs who made the first Bur- roughs adding machine in 1884. Mr. Boyer invented the pneuamtic ham- mer, air drill and railway speed re- corder during the several years he operated his St. Louis machine shop. In 1888 he organized the Boyer Ma chine Company to carry on the manufacture of these devices. An indication of the esteem in which the deceased was held in the City of Detroit is seen by the fact that the Detroit Free Press, under the cap- tion "An Example to Emulate" pays cloquent tribute to him in its editor- ial columns. The editorial reads. "Josepli Boyer, who died in this city last week, at the age of 82, was bors in a small town in Ontario. Ar- ter learning the machinist trade in Oshawa he came to the United Sta- tes, about 50 years ago, and settled in St. Louis. The natural mechanical bent of his mind aided in making the machine shop he established in that city a success. William S. Burroughs went to it to have his first adding machines built. Out of the partner- ship formed by these two men has grown the present world-wide busi- ness centered in Detroit, which bears he name of one of them, although eply indebted fcr its tremendous success to the other's ability and character. "Success did not turn Mr. Boyer's head. A sweet dispositioned, clean living man he remained to the end of his long life. After he had be- come the head of the greatest com- puting machine company in the world he did not hesitate to throw off his coat, take a rebelious ma- chine apart and set it right, The vast army of employees whose labor goes into the making of the company's products is indebted for a great deai to the fact that Mr. Boyer never for- got that he himself had started at the foot of he ladder and climbed i by his own efforts. Others, who made apeals to his unostentatious generoisity, were equally fortunate, Often he would ask: "What do you think 1 ought to give?' Seldom did they obtain less than they sugested. "Joseph Boyer's careed was a liv- ing rebuttal of the complaint, fre quently heard today, that a young man with little or none of this world's goods cannot longer attain to success andaffluence in this coun- try, with honor and respect. This unfortunate idea has led many young men to seek afftuence by means that have brought them dishonor, with- out success. Joseph Boyer never did a "smart" thing in his life. All he got was the fruit of industry and | honesty and modesty. The material contributions he made to the world during his life, valuable as they were are far less considerable than the in- spirational gift which he has be queathed to ambitious young men who have the intelligence and stabil- ity of character to profit by his ex- ample."

(107h) ALLEGED CATTLE THIEF IS GIVEN RIGHT TO APPEAL Charles Dean Who Was Sentenced Here Mr. Justice Grant yesterday grant- ed Charles Russel! Dean, of Bow- manville leave to appeal against a sentence, imposed by Magistrate Willis in Oshawa Police Court on June 5th, this year, of three years for cattle stealing. Dean had been arrested on the same morning as he was sentenced and two charges of theft of cows were laid against him, one by Dun- can Galbraith of Newcastle and one from Arthur Ray, It was alleged that the accused had the night be- fore gone fo the pasture field of Dun can Galbraith west of Newcastle and had taken a cow walking it by back roads to a point Grove where he phoned for a local Toronto, The trucker, however, had been acquainted with the facts con- cerning another cow which Dean is ately informed the police who pro- ceeded with him to the scene. Here they found Dean with the stolen cow and he was lodged in the local jail and appeared the same morning in Police Court. He pleaded guilty to the theft of the two cows and Magistrate Willis sentenced him to two terms of three years each to run concurrently. Dean has since been in the Portsmouth Penitentiary and has evidently made application for 'an appeal which has now been granted. It is not known when the appeal will be heard.
