Gilbert, Chairman of | Welfare Fund Campaign Committee, Expresses Ap- preciation for Assistance Rendered by Service Club Members in Big Drive "Could the business section and arts of the residential section of the city of Oshawa be satisfactorily heated by the utilization of the sur- plus steam from some of the city's larger industries?" This question was answered em- phatically in the affirmative at yes- terday's luncheon of the Oshawa Rotary Club by H. E. Moore, of the ~ American District Steam Co., of North Tonawanda, N.Y., who was he .speaker of the day, and who gave an interesting address on the | Jevelopment of district steam heat- | ng in the United States and Cana- fa. The address was highly infor- mative, and was followed with keen Interest by all who heard it, not alone on account of the material sontained in it, but because of the possibilities it revealed for revolu- tfonizing heating methods in this community. The meeting was largely attended, and in addition to the speaker G. R. Richardson, of the Richardson Boat Co., Inc, of North Tonawanda, and Dr. C. E. Reaman, of the Boys' Training School, Bowmanville, were present as guests. Cecil F. Cannon occu- pied the chair in the absence of the president, and the meeting was lively and well-conducted. W. M. Gilbert, general chairman of the welfare fund campaign, took the opportunity of expressing to the club and its members his sin- cere thanks for the splendid assis- tance given in the campaign of last week, saying all had done their work wonderfully well, and. that the result had been far beyond ex: pectations. He paid a special tri- bute to Mike Bouckley for his ef- fort in collecting $185, "in cop- pers." A touching letter from an eight-year-old child was read by Mr. Gilbert to show the Rotarians {hat the children, also, would have good reason to thank the service clubs of Oshawa for their splendid effort. The speaker of the day was in- troduced by Lt.-Col. B. J. MeCor- (Continued on page 2) YORKMINSTER CHOIR AT ST.

The late Mr. Philip was in his 94th year. The deceased came to Oshawa from Scotland in 1869 and resided here until 1906. On the death of his second wife hc left for the west, liv- ing for about 17 years with his son, George, of Winnipeg, four years with son, William, Kamlops and four years with his daughter, Mrs. T. Scott, of | Toronto. The late Mr. Philip enjoyed the use of all his faculties until the last and made it a point to attend church ev- ery Sunday. Possessing a rugged constitution, he walked six miles ev- ery day and was able to read without glasses. Just before his death he re-! peated from memory the Scottish paraphase "Oh God of Bethel" Mr. Philip was a faithful member of the United Church, having been a Methodist previous to union, and during his residence here attended Simcoe Street United (Methodist) Church. On his 9th birthday, the; United Church which he attended at Winnipeg, made him the present of | a silver walking stick. The deceased attributed his long Ife to good health | a contented mind and exercise. He wat a great' lover of his native coun- try, Scotland, and there was not a pocm of "Bobbie" Burns which he could not repeat by heart. He is survived by two sons, Geo. | of Winnipeg, William, of Kamloops | and one daughter, Mrs, E. Scott, of | Toronto, also ten grandchildren and | four great grandchildren to mourn | his loss. PROJECTIONISTS OF OSHAWA RAISE $320.00 FOR FUND nt Made Announcement Times Yesterday Was in Error The four projectionists of the local motion picture theatres, A. Patterson and E, Blair of the Regent Theatre and S. Collis and T. Burrows of the New Martin Theatre, are today hand- ing over to the Assocated Welfare Societies Fund the sum of $329.00, this being the amount raised in the midnight show, held two theatres last Friday -night, and | organized by the projectionists as a | contribution to the welfare work of | the community, In last night's issuc | of The Times, owing to a misunder- | standing by the chairman of the gen- eral committee, it was stated that an | amount of $328.25 has been raised by | the show at the New Martin Theatre. This, obviously, was an error, as-on the basis of 25 cents admission, this would far exceed the capacity of that theatre. The correct returns for the combined show in the two theatres, however, are just a little over that amount, being $329.00 and the welfare fund committee is grateful to the projectionists for the effort which they made on behalf of the cause. This effort not only resulted in the use of the theatres being granted free, but also all other services were given without expense, so that the four young men mentioned above were able to turn over the entire pro- ceeds of the shows in the two thea- tres to the fund: They have been heartily complimented by the com- mittee for the success of their work, and thanked for their splendid con- tribution in a financial sense.

This banquet at which 425 men and boys sat down was a very interesting event, Not on- ly was Ontario County well repre- sented but York County, where a similar work Is 'being carried on was also present to the extent of around 70. Mr. A. R. Payne, a former farm hoy of Victoria Coun- ty and now president of the Owl Drug Stores, was chairman of the Kiwanis Club for Farmer's Day. Mr. J. B.

The business which had come | "Give Man a Job" Campaign ' 1 | Attracted Wide Attention | Idea Has Been Received With Much Enthusiasm Elsewhere and Has Been Adopted by Two American Organiza- | The "Give a Man a Job" campaign, recently conducted by the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce in co-opera- tion with the Oshawa Daily Times attracted widespread attention 'in many parts of Canada and the Ua- ited States. As has previously been intimated, the full-page advertise- ments which were published by The Times as a contribution to the cam- paign were very favourably comment ed on by H. C, Hudson, superinten- dent of the Employment Bureaus of Ontario, and since then the same ad- vertisements were copied in six of the other daily papers of the province of Ontario, which fell in line with the campaign as adopted in Oshawa, Evidence of the idea being received with enthusiasm much farther afield, however, has been provided by Lt.- | Col." B. J. McCormick, secretary of | the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce. from a friend in Sacramento, Cali- | fornia, Col. McCormick sent to him | copies of The Times' publicity and of tions, Col. B. J. McCormick Learns the cards uscd by the Chamber of Commerce in the campaign. In re- turn he recived the following reply: "My Dear Mr, McCormick, Your letter of the 13th with reference to your campaign entitled "Give a Man a Job" is sincerely appreciated. want to use this idea in Sacramento, and wish that you would address an- other letter to William J. Russell, President of NACOS, 89-31 161st Street, Jamaica, New York. Yours very truly, A. S. Dudley, Secretary-Manager, Sacremento, Ch. of Commerce." Col. McCormick has accordingly sent complete information as to the campaign and the excellent results it produced to the New York city organization, thus adding another link to the chain of conununities in- terested in what is being done in Oshawa. Old King Winter Hurrying Down from Northern Haunts The storm signals have been hoist- [ will be constrained to retire to his | ed. Oshawans are warned to get | their old red flannels out of the moth | | balls and to dust off last year's win- | ter overcoat. The weatherman, who { always speaks the truth no matter | how much it hurts, predicts the end lof the balmy spring-like days. Here is his forecast for tomorrow: "Strong west to northwest winds and gales; becoming colder with loc- | al snowfalls and flurries." | A crisp, business-like sentence this | but it contains a wealth of meaning Old King Winter is getting restless in his icy northern home and is plan- ning to swoop south ward, As he marches from the desolate wastes of the north land, his cold, chilling breath will freeze everything in his patch and a mantle of snow white | will be spread in his train. The bear cave for the long winter sleep and other denizens of the foredt will | think seriously of hibernating, But the pleasure ot spending the cold the cold all the more. However, man long ago learned to protect his body from freezing winds by adorning himself with skins and furs. The win- ter outfit of today is a far cry fron the rude costume of priunitive man hut it is doubtless much more becom- ing and serves its purpose better, To- morrow wise citizens will take pre- cautions to protect themselves against lower temperatures and will abandon the lighter garments of au- tumn for the more burdensome, but warmer winter apparel, CITY AND DISTRICT NEWS TO DETERMINE LIABILITY A writ for damages, the sequel tc an automobile collision which occur- red last summer in Bruce County, | has been issued by Charles A.

The pres- ent models are completely sold out, he said, and manufacture of models to supply the orders on hand had necessitated working the staff at night. There had been some trouble n securing material, on account mn the orders being so much in excess of estimates, but this was being overcome, and production was go- 'ng on as quickly as possible, That this condition would con- tinue for the next four or five months was the confident belief of Mr, Carlyle, who said that after | the new year the company was bringing out another new model which he expected would greatly stimulate business for the spring months. The demand for radio sets, he said, Is surprising, and we are looking forward to a busy winter.

While the roadway on the bridge approach- es has not been paved, it is a hard macadam road with a gravel surface coat, and is quite smooth for driving. Owing to the height of the bridge, | 3 the approaches are of considerable length, and their construction was a big project. It is expected that the detour road which has been used while the new bridge was in process of construction will still be maintained as a means of reaching the sideroad running down to Lake Ontario, FINANCE COMMITTEE MET A meeting of the finance com- mittee of the city council was held last night in the city treasurer's office, with other members of the council present Although the meeting was held ostensibly to con- sider the report of City Treasurer P, A.
