ORMISTON WHITBY COUNCIL NOT IN FAVOR OF BEER BY THE GLASS No Endorsation of Three Resolutions From East Windsor Whitby Town Council is not in favor of the sale of heer by the glass in Ontario under the super- visfon of the Liquor Control Board. At the regular meeting on Monday night a resolution from the City Council of East Windsor, asking for endorsation of this new mode of thirst quenching, which, it was proposed, would be sent to the government. was turned down on motion of Reeve Jackson, sec- onded by Coun. Fred Rowe, Reev: Jackson thought that beer by the glass would work 'as a detrimen: instead of a benefit. ' Another resolution from the same municipality asking Council to endorse a recommendation to be presented to Premier Henry that men engaged on government roads work be paid 50c and hour and work a maximum of eight hours, was laid on the tabla, Reeve Jackson opined that the government was able to look after its own business and would not thank Whitby or any other muni- cipality for advice. On the ground that operators of gas stations and pumps are paying enough to the municipal. ity through their business tax, as well as general taxes, Council re- fused to endorse a resolution pass- ed by East Windsor Council ask- ing the government to give to ur- ban centres the authority to regu- late and license gasoline and ofl service stations. DAYLIGHT SAVING IN WHITBY THE SAME AS LAST YEAR Annual Clean-Up Dates Set --Other Council Matters The Town Council on Monday evening voted to introduce day- light saving in Whitby for the same period as in Toronto and Oshawa, April 27th to Sept. 25th, or the same as last year. Councillor Fred Rowe wanted to make it effective during June, July and August only on the ground that the April-September period was too long. A majority of the Council, however, felt that as Whitby was located between two cities where the longer period prevailed it was obliged for busi- ness reasons to follow suit, Annual Clean Up On recommendation of the Streets Committee, the annual clean up days in Whitby will be April 27. 28 and 29, somewhat earlier this year owing to the early spring. On these days citi- zens are asked to clean up their back yards and pile all rubbish on the street line where it can be picked up by the street department teams. Council decided to pay the pub- lic liability and property damage insurance premium on the "car owned by Chief Quantrill and used by him in the service of the town. A stop watch for use in traffic directions will also be purchased. "Income Assessment A letter from W. E. N. Sinclair, M.P.P., for South Ontario in re- ply to Council's request that he oppose the move to abolish muniei- pal income assessment, advised that while nothing was got done at this session the time 'was not far distant when something would be done to equalize this assess- ment in the various municipalities i= the province. Mayor Bowman reported that he and Assessor H. L. Pringle listened to the debate on this question before the special com- mittee of tne House, as instructed by the Council. What they heard, His Worship stated, was very en- lightening and the time was well spent. ed that the government d al- ready appointed a Commission to go into the municipal act thor- oughly and make recommenda- tions which in their opinion would vectify certain existing errors and bring it up to date. FROLIC POSTPONED At a joint meeting of the exe- cutive committee, convention finance committee and the entertainment committee of tha Canadian Legion held last nig jt was decided to tpone the midnight frolic which it has been proposed to hold on April 24, the members deciding that it would be wiser to concentrate on ef- forts to raise the necessary conve'- tion finances, and to replenish the Poppy Fund by other means.

GAS FRANCHISE AGREEMENT NOT YET DISPOSED OF Suggested Amendments by Council Are Being Prepared The gas franchise agreement before the Whitby Town Council has not yet been finally disposed of. It was expected that the ques- tion would come up at the meet- ing on Monday night but Reeve Jackson reported that G. D, Con- ant, Oshawa, had telephoned to say that the amended agreement was not yet ready. Mayor Bowman announced that a special meeting for this purpose was possible within a few days. About two weeks ago the Coun- cil went over the varlous clauses of the agreement which would give Ben E, Tate a franchise to sell gas in the town of Whitby for fifty years, at a specified rate per thousand feet, and under cer- tain conditions, The Council through its solicitor, Arthur E. Christian. made some suggested changes which were for the most part acceptable to Mr. Tate's representatives who were at the meeting. One of the most import- ant of these was that a specified area where gas will be supplied to the inhabitants of the town be clearly set forth in the agree- ment. Should a special meeting be held this week it is likely that Council may decide to submit the agreement to the people. SACRED CANTATA AT UNITED CHURCH Choir Gave Well-Finished Presentation on Sunday Evening Before a large congregation on Sunday night, the choir of the United Church, under the able di- rection of A, W, Lynde, choirlead- er, rendered the sacred cantata "The Crucifixion". This cantata which is one of the best known works of the late Sir John Stainer, who at one time was the organist at St. Paul's Cathedral in London, England, recalls the events of the last days of the Saviour on earth. The canatta was a most fitting ter- mination to Passion Week, con- taining as it does many beautiful passages that touch the sentiments to their core. The cantata while not too diffi- cult for church presentation af- fords the opportunity for great xe- pression and feeling. The -presénta- tion Sunday night by the choir of the United Church was worthy of sreat appreciation, as they gave a well finished presentation and proved themselves to be a well balanced organisation, In addition to the choruses and solos by the choir. the congrega- tion took part in three selectipns from Stainer's work. The soloists who took part were Mr, Clarence Toaze, of Oshawa, Bennett Smith, W. A. Dewland, Reginald Parrott and William Ayres. The whole choir of thirty-two voices sang the corus "God So Loved the World", unaccompanied and this selection stood out as one of the best of the | evening. The organ accompani- | ments to the selections played by Mrs. Kierney were very fine, The short devotional service prior to the presentation of the cantgta was taken by Rev. E, 8.

About fifty members have joined the association this ycar it was learned. In order that the question of the cost of securing a stream may be gone into more fully, a further inves- tigation of the cost will be made by a committee anpointed for the pur- pose. This committee will report to a meeting to be called on April 2st, At that time the question of whether' the association is to have a stream or not will be decided, Through the courtesy of the Cana- ith i Yo ( dian National Railways, moving pic- tures were shown entitled "Fishing Across Canada," which aroused the 50NG FOR APRIL 4 When April, hand in hand with Spring, Sets every robin carolling, And faint and very far and clear the god Pan calls, There's something in the heart of me That mocks at adult dignity, Makes me long to run and play with bounce-y rubber balla!

"A badly damaged radiator and other damages to the front of their car resulted from running into the rear end of a heavily loaded truck on the east side of Tooley"s hill about 6.30 last evening, The car was owned and driven by Dr. Cut. tis, dentist of Marmora, who was accompanied by his wife and baby. The party were returning home from Seaforth. The truck belonged to.the Hoar Transport and had slowed up on the hill to avoid run- ring into some boys on bicycles who were ahead of it. Dr. and Mrs. Cur- tis spent the night with friends in Oshawa. * BIG GRASS BLAZE. A grass fire of substantial pro- portions, which at times threatened buildings alongside the blazing hay, occupied the attention of the fire department between one and two o'clock this afternoon, when the whole of the flats east of Oshawa Creek, from Mill Street North to the C.P.R. embankment, provided a spectacular blaze, Outbuildings at the foot of Hall Street narowly es- caped catching fire, the firemen having to use copious supplies of water at this point to protect the buildings. In time, however, the fire about 250 -ersons will be present, and the accommodation of the large burnt itself out, after giving the firemen a busy hour or so.

MAN COLLAPSES AND DIES DURING ~~ FARMHOUSE FIRE (Continued from Page 1) the house was situated, through a mortgage deal and was busy working on the premises when the fire occur- red. The building, a frame structure, was totally destroyed and the occu- pants, Mr. and Mrs. J. Fallows, lost practically all their furniture. The farm is situated on the fifth concession of Pickering township. three miles north and east of Pick- ering. Some repairs were being made to the roof of the house and a pile of old shingles, and other rubbish which had accumulated near by, was set on fire, The fiames spread quick- iy through the dead grass and in a minute had almost surround the Fal- lows' home which was soon burn- ing rapidly, Neighbors and workmen 'rushed to the assistance of the Toronto man who was frantically trying to fight the blaze. He was seen to fall and efforts to revive him proved futile, Dr. V. Cartwright, Pickering coron- er, was immediately summoned but he found that life was extinct. Through the work of neighbors a few articles of furniture were saved out of the blaze and the grass fire was stamped out before it could spread to an adjacent barn. The body of Shalukie was removed to an undertaking parlor at Picker- {ing and was then taken to Toronto. | Dr. Cartwright: stated last night that {an inquest would not be necegsary las the deceased had been suffering from valvular heart. trouble for the past nine years, CARD OF THANKS Thanks to the sacred Heart for Steve O'Neill Is Out of Action Louisville, Ky., April 7--Manager Seve O'Neill was forced to leave tor his home in Cleveland, yesterday. The attack of neuritis which hds troubled the Toronto Leafs leader for the past week grew increasingly severe during the night and a doctor was called in. He advised Mr. O'Neill to go home and forget baseball for a time. Ac- cordingly, Steve departed at noon, and Tom Daly, veteran catcher, is temporarily in charge of the Leafs, The players indulged in a good practice session at Parkway Field, home of the Colonels, this morning, Daly was in charge of the squad and batting and infield practices and warming-up exercises were on the program. In the afternoon some of the players went out to see Dan Hogley's Reds play an exhibition game against Louisville. Weather Cold The weather is cold and not suitable for baseb#® 3 Leafs, who lett Jast night for .ahapolis hope weather conditions are better in the Indiana city, Manager O'Neill plans to join the team again at Columbus, Ohio, Toronto plays three games in that city, beginning on Friday. Pitcher Nick Harrison has not put in an appearance here and rumor has it that he has not yet come to terms with the Toronto club despite reports that he had signed a contract last week. . The present pitching staff of the Leafs is not strong enough for the series of exhibition games and some of the inexperienced youngsters will have to work in the games in Indian- apolis and Columbus, Apparently none of the major league clubs are inclined to help the Leafs this season and efforts to ob- tain pitchers from that source have met with failure, : TWICE MARRIED IN ONE YEAR London.-----Carlo Norway, the famous artist and sculptod, was married to Miss Ethel Lester for the second time, at Paddington Register Office, They were first married on Décember 5. 1929, Mr. Norway believing that his first wife, whom he had mot seen for seventeen years, was dead.

EASTER SUNDAY CHURCH SERVICES (Continued from Page 1) found in the temple praising their Lord and the ' rector urged his earnest listeners to follow this good example . and worship the risen Christ in spirit and in truth, During the afternoon, a spec- ial children's service was held in the church. The text for the evening sub- ject was taken from Corinthians 15, 14, "If Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain and our faith is also vain." This ser- vice, as well as that in the morn- ing, was inspiring and the spec- fal music, rendered by the choir under the able direction of Mr. A. Jackson, was exceptionally well given, The anthems were "They Have Taken Away My Lord" by Stitiner and "The Meadows While Telling" for the Communion ser- vice. Simper's setting was used for the "Magnificat" and 'Nunc Dimittis." Large congregations were present throughout the day and 16560 partook Holy Communion. Albert St. United Church Easter Sunday Services at Al- bert St. United Church gave fit- ting and joyous expression to the Easter message in both song and sermon. The pastor, Rev. 8. C. Moore, was in charge and the choir was at its very best, under the efficient leadership of Mr. Jas, Hurst. Large and enthusias- tic congregation filled the beauti- ful auditorium morning, afternoon and evening, additional seating being necessary at the morning service, during which several children were baptized, Some twenty new members received unto the Church, and the Sacra- ment of the Lord's Supper ad- ministered to a large number of Communicants by the pastor. The floral decorations of flow- ering plants, interspersed with Easter lilies, contributed largely to the brightness and atmosphere of the service of the day. At the evening service. in which Rev. W. I. Green, B.A. recently of Trinidad also shared, Rev. Mr. Moore's message Was an earnest and effective appeal for a vital faith in a living, all sufficient Saviour, and a future life of happy reunion and fellowship with those "Whom we have loved long since and lost awhile." The preacher reminded his hearers that they had met in mem- ory of earth's mightest miracle-- and mystery--the Resurrection of Jesus, and in the name of the world's greatest conqueror--the risen Christ. "All true Easter wor- shippers', he said, 'were gath- ered, not under the gloom and darkness of Good, Friday, but amid all the glory and brightness of Easter Sunday--not under the shadow of Earth's greatest sor- row, sacrifice and seeming defeat and failure, but amid all the joy and gladness of the world's great- est victory and triumph. We sing today not the doleful dirge of dis- appointment and despair, but the sweet music of man's surest hope of immortality---his firmest, most fervent faith in endless life and eternal happiness beyond the grave, in fellowship with the Father and all fcllow believers". Special and appropriate music py the choir greatly enriched the services of the day. The morning anthem "Awake Thou That Sleep- » was sung in splendid spirit set and harmony. A solo "The Resur- was sweetly and rection Morn", sympathetically rendered by Mr. Morrison, At the evening service hte choir gave a fine rendering of the anthem "Blow Ye the Trum- pet", Joint solos "He Shall Feed His Flock" and "Come Unto Him were taken by Mrs, Williams and Mrs. Carkeek, also 'Thou Dids't Not Leave His Soul in Hell" by Mr. Harry Dyas all in pleasing voice and spirit, while the morn- ing anthem was repeated by spec- request. en day School enjoyed an open session in the afternoon at which a very bright service of Eapter choruses and other selec- tions was splendidly rendered | largely by the children. gt. Gregory's Roman Cath Services at St. Gregory's Roman Catholic Church marked the joy- ous culmination of Holy Week. observances. Masses were held at 8, 9, 10 and 11 o'clock Sunday morning and the church Was crowded to the doors with rever- ent worshippers. Nine hundred partook of Holy Communion dur- e day. Ing I Father P. J. Bench, the rector, was in charge of the wor- ship Sunday while he was assist- ed bq Rev. Father M. J. Nealon, curate, and Rev. Fatheg O'Reilly. assistant priest. The Easter music was directed by Miss McBrady, organist and choir leader. The period of Lent concludeo at Saturday noon and last week was Holy Week, devoted to medi- tation on the sacred meaning of Easter. Large numbers attended the Holy Week services whieh were held every morning and evening. CENTRE STREET UNITED Rev. W, P. Fletcher, pastor of the chusch was in the pulpit at both ser- vices on Sunday. His subject in the morning was "Will Easter Mean Anything to You?" To some length he dwelt on the subject of Easter and its real meaning. The choir ren- dered two anthems at the morning service. In the evening members were received into the church and the sacrament of the Lord's Supper administered. Most beautifully the choir rendered "In Joseph's Lovely Garden" and Mrs. W. Hare sang "The Resurrection" Dr. Fletcher's Comes Again and Again." Special Easter music was directed by the sermon for the evening was "Jesus | TORN COUNCIL OF BOWMANVILLE MET LAST NIGHT Gas Franchise Bylaws Not Yet Ready for Submission to the Council Contrary to expectations the Gas Franchise question did not come before the Town Council at its April meeting last evening. Mayor Elliott stated during the meeting that Gordon D. Conant, solicitor for the Chicago interests had sent word that the bylaw agree. ment were not yet ready to submit to the council for approval, A gpecial meeting is expected very shortly to discuss the franchise. Council had a long 'session last night and considerable business was done. Councillor Strike was ab- sent through sickness. The meeting in brief follows: C. M. Cawker, Centre Street, ask. ed for permission to cut down a tree on his property. Referred to Roads and Streets Committee, Trustees of Salem School peti- tioned council for water to be con- nected to the new tank to their school and agreed to abide by all conditions of the town. Later in the meeting this was granted and the school will be charged the regular flat rate. J. L. Morden sent cheque for $100 in payment of lot purchased from the town near the Cemetery last fall. Letter was read from J. A. Ellis, extending the time for the use of unemployment relief to April 30. Bowmanville Men's Association asked council to co-operate by for- warding a motion to the Bell Tele- phone Company asking for the im- mediate installation of a common battery or lift system. As the asso- ciation had received word from the Company nothing was done about this matter. Charge Disputed. Insurance adjustor for H. Wol- fam, Toronto, whose truck was burned recently and to which the fire department made a run dis- puted the charge of $75 made by the town refusing to pay same and informing the town that this was the first municipality which had ever put in such a claim. Claim was also disputed on the grounds that the brigade did not arive on the scene until an hour after the fire started and that the truck was a total loss. L. 8. Palmer, of Oshawa, applied for permission to erect a service station at the corner of King and Lambert Streets to cost in the neighborhood of $2,500. It will be of stucco construction. Permission was granted. Salvation Army asked forpermis- sion to hold a tag day on May 16. Permiission granted. is as Representatives Phone No. 53 for $70 in Division Court of Thurs- day was brought before council and the latter will dispute' the claim for damages by Terry for injuries received while working for the town, Washington Loan and Trust Co. sent a cheque for $889.64 as two months revenue of the McGill Build- in Washington, D.C. Petitions Received A petition for a cement sidewalk from Concession to Wellington Sts. was referred to the Roads and | Streets Committee to report back. Beech Association asked for usu- al grant of $100 but the petition was not signed. It was referred to the finance committee. Hunt Street residents in a very largely signed petition asked that their street be fixed and cement sidewalks laid. This street is in a bad shape and despite Reeve Car- ruthers much utter cry of economy work will likely go ahead this sum- mer. Grant's Lane was also asked to be fixed and as this is a small job this too will probably de done. Both matters were left to the Roads and Streets Committee. Chief of Police S. Venton and Constable W. Hall will get a new suit each and also a new raincoat each. It is two years since they had a suit and three years since they had a raincoat. Bylaws Passed. Bylaws were passed providing for increases in" charges at the Cemetery, and for the increase in Pedlar's licenses. After turning down a request at the last meeting of the Horticulture the Memorial Plot in good shape during the summer, on a motion of Councillor Martyn the grant was made. Councillor Lockhart suggested a gystem of replacing all trees cut down in the town so as to provide for trees in the future. Decoration Day. A committee composed of the Mayor and Cemetery Committee with Councillor Lockhart will made plans for a decoration day at the Cemetery on July 5th when the new McGill Memorial Gates will be dedi- cated and all fraternal organiza- tions, churches and citizens will be invited. Daylight Saving will take effect on April 26 and will be kept on un- til September 26 to be in keeping with Toronto and Oshawa. The waterworks committee will report back at a special meeting on the Scugog watermain and sewer which is hoped to get under way shortly as an aid to the workless. At the suggestion of Councillor Lockhart the town will commence to pay wages instead of relief food tickets. The men have been on this plan for several weeks and have not received any money at all with the result that rent, light and water- bills have gone unpaid and clothes have been forced to hang together until such time as money was al- lowed these men. Council adjourned at 11 o'clock and will meet again at the call of the Mayor shortly. "I've lost all respect for Swift's veracity." "isn't he strictly truthful." "Well, judge for yourself.
