If this is done it will greatly relieve the congestion of shipping interests at the harbor. A memorandum that has been sent out by Col. McCormick to the various firms interested in utiliz- ing the Oshawa harbor, reads as follows: : Notice Sent Out "In order to avoid any misun- derstanding as to the policy adopt- ed by the Department of Marine under whose jurisdiction this Port is administered, this bulletin « is issued to all shipping interests ap- plying for wharfage and storage space at the Port of Oshawa. "Oshawa Harbour i{s a Govern- ment property, owned and oper- ated by the Dominion Government as a service to the general public, and their policy of administration is based on the broad and accepted principle of giving the maximum service to the greatest number, It fs most unfortunate that the vol- ume of waterborne commerce which is now offered has proven to be more than the present facili- ties and available wharfage space at this port can possibly absorb. Under these conditions and until such time as the department can supplement our inadequate wharf- age area, it will be impossible and inconeqstent with kood business practice to allot to any person or firm anything © but temporary wharfage privileges. No Permancnt Space "Owing to contemplated con- struction work of major propor tion no permanent space can allotted until such time ag the de- partment can arrange for manent areas on a mutually equ- able and satisfactory basis. Until further notice the policy of thls harbour will be to allot wharfdge space to cargo ships in rotation as they enter the port and require unloading space, notwithstanding any previous occupation of the area as allotted. "As the shipping interests and the port officials all realize this unfortunate condition which exists, we respectfully ask for the indule- once and co-operation of all par- ties interested, until such time ns permanent rellef can be granted by the government, "B.

RT UAC Bowmanville Daily Times Representatives Phone: No. 53 I & ST, ANDREW'S HAS ITS ANNIVERSARY SERVIGES SUNDAY Church Has Had Interesting History Dating Back To Year 1840 . It is interesting to note that in connection with the Anniversary Services of St. Andrew's Church, on Sunday the Presbyterians of Bowmanville are now worshipping on historic ground, being that on which was built the original St. Andrew's, then a Congregation of the Old Kirk, or the Presbyterian Church in connection with the Church of Scotland, One has written that 'a true Scot cannot be happy long with- out his Kirk," and although no church was built until the year 1883, meetings were held before that time by the new-comers from Scotland who settled in the Town- ship of Darlington, when appoint- ments for 'supply of sermon' were made. The land was origin- ally granted by the late Charles Bowman, among others to Robert Fairbairn, the grandfather of Miss Beatrice Fairbairn, and to Daniel Galbraith, father of Miss Jean Galbraith of Queen Street. both of whom are active members of St. Andrew's Church today, and the church costing $2,000 was built of wood, In 1540, it was reported to the Presbytery of Kingson by Rev. Thomas Alexander of Cobourg, that le had dispensed Communion to upwards of one hundred persons in Bowmanville. After the forma- tion of the congregation aud be- fore the ordination and induction of its first minister, Rev. John Hugh McKerras, M.A.,, on the 20th of September 1853, the Pres- bytery of Toronto, according to the original Minutes of Session, Daptismal Records and certain cor- respondence still in existence, ar- ranged supply, and among those administering both the Sacrament of Holy Communion. and Baptism to the congregation, were Rev. William McEwan, later of Belle- ville, Rev. Peter MacNaughton of Vaughan, Rev, John MacMurchy of Eldon, Rev, Mr. Steele of Dar lington, Rev, Alexander Ross, Rov, William Rintoul of St. Ane drew's Church, Toronto, and Rev. James Lambie of Pickering. During this time also, ti Dis ruption in the Church of Scot- land Sook place, and although there was no apparent reason why it should have had any effect in Canada, nevertheless many minis- ters and congregations in this country sympathized with the se- ceders from the Establishment and formed what was later known as The Canadian Presbyterian Church, In St. Andrew's Church, Bowmanville, the feeling wag dive fded and certain members with drew from the congregation and claimed the buflding. and site. After some litigation, the Church and property ere conceded to those who held to the Old Kirk, and those withdrawing formed a new congregation later known as St. Paul's, and now St. Paul's United Church, The ministry of Rev. Mr, Mec- Kerras terminated in 1866, and on the 4th of August, 1868, Rev. Adam Spenser was inducted and continued in charge until 1883, 'then in consequence of the great union of "The Presbyterian Church. in Canada" which had taken place in 1875, the church was closed and the members jolu- ed with their fellow Presbyterians of St. Paul's Church. The original building was burned in 1885, and shortly afterwards the site was sold to The Co-operative of Dis- ciples of Christ in Ontario, known us The Disciples Church, In the early months of 1925, certain members of St. Paul's Church availing themselves of the section afforded by The United Church of Canada Act, refused to concur in the proposed Union and withdrew for the purpose of con- tinuing their own Church with others who did likewise through- out the Dominion, On the purchase of the present property from the Disciples Church, as explained, the site of the first Presbyterian Church In Bowmanville, it was an easy task to choose a title, and the name of "St. Andrew's" was revived and applied to the Church and Congre- gation, Under Rev. Robert McDer- ment, who was called in 1925, the Congregation made consider~ able progress, and some time after his retirement, the present minis- ter, Rev, W. J, Todd, was induct- ed into the charge. With members whose families have had an unbroken connection with local Presbyterianism since the days of its éarliest beginnings in this town and distrist, St. An- drew's points with pride to its his- tory and traditions, and under the incumbency of its beloved minis- ter, looks forward to a helpful and over increasing influence in the community, DROWNING VICTIM'S FUNERAL.
