ORMISTON DAILY TIMES NEW SOLICITOR APPOINTED FOR TOWN OF WHITBY Position Is Given to Duncan Mcintyre, Local Barrister At a special meeting of the mown Council held on Thursday evening, Duncan B. Mcintyre, & local barrister, and son of the late Judge McIntyre, was appoint- ed Town Solicitor to succeed the late Arthur E. Christian. The appointment is effective from July 1st of this year. The new solicitor is a young man who graduated from Osgoode Hall a few years ago, and who has been practicing in whitby for over a year. He is a native son. Two letters were reall to the Council from local barristers stating that they would accept the position of solicitor it it was offered to them. One was from A. G. Browning, K.C., former Crcwn Attorney at North Bay, who has conducted a law office here for some time, and the oth- er from the successful applicant. The appointment of Mr. McIntyre war made without discussion, and was unanimous. No Sidewalks This Year With only two applications for short stretches of sidewall, the Council decided to undertake no new construction this year. The decision will mean quite a saving to the town. Try to Retain Camp Council passed a resolution ex- pressing regret that the *NDeacon- ese Board of the United Church proposed to close its Fresn Air Camp at Whitby the close of the present season \ and ruggest- ing that before any definite de- cision was reached, a conference be held between the Council, oth. er local organizations and the Board, with a view to ascerdain- ing what steps, if any, can be taken to retain the camp here, The resolution set forth that the Council and Jitizens were heart- i'y in sympathy with the work for poor children being carried on at the camp, and stating that if the camp was closed it would be a great loss to the municipality. Speaking to the motion, Reeve Albert W. Jackson pointed out that the camp had been operated for many years in Whitby, thou- sands of children having heen brought from the city for a holiday, and returning so much improved in health, Whitby, the reeve thought, could not afford to see the camp closed here. He considered that from a business standpoint it was a valuable as- set to the community. Mr. Jack- son explained the reason for the proposal to close the camp here. The resolution as adopted by the council, which was drafted and presented by Coun. J. H. Ormiston, will be forwarded forthwith to the officials of the Deaconess Board operating . the camp. The resolution is in ac- cord with sentiments expressed at a reception held at the camp on Tuesday of this week.

City News NO FEES YAID HERE In an article referring to the fee system of paying constables and magistrates in the province of Ontario, a list is given of the communities in which this meth- od of paying magistrates pre- vails, In the list are included Oshawa, with T. K, iChertong Oshawa, with T. K. Creighton, as magistrate; Bowmanville, with W. F. Ward named as magistrate, and Whitby, with J. Wills as On makihg inquiry this morning, The Times learned that this list is hardly correct, as Magistrate Creighton receives no fees as Magistrate of the City of Oshawa, but is on a salary basis in that position.

Bowmanville, where Mr. Hocken's family settled upon ar- ring in Canada, remained his home for fifty-eight years. Some years were spent in Port Perry, and ten years ago, when he re- tired from active business, Mr. Hocken went to Toronto to re- side. He entered into the lumber industry when a young man, and during the last -thirty years had been connected with the Hocken Lumber Company, with head of- fices in Torontp. He founded the Hocken Lumber and Coal Com- pany, with mills in Parry Sound and the Algoma District, During his active years he was keenly interested in. the Methodist Church.

The end came with the score at 16 to 15 for the Rubber men and a little more care on the part of the students would have gained for them, something they do not often get, a win, Osborne's, stalwarts started right in to bat and opened the game by bringing the first three men home. Goodyear turned around and sent six around the diamond to take a good lead on which the students gradually crept up. At the end of the fourth the score stood at six all but the Rubber men took the lead again with a five run innings in the fifth and the students turned the table and scored six in the next innings giving them a one run lead again, This was after two men were down, and Welch con- tributed a home run when bases were loaded giving the boys a lot of pep to work on. At seven innings the Students still held a run lead the score standing at 15 to 14 but the Goodyear forged ahead for another two in the eigth and finished the game with their one run hold on the stu- dents. The game was more in- terseting than has heen seen for some weeks and the Students put up a great fight. Osborne pitched a real good game but he fools around too much to get any- where. A bit of backing and sup- port for him in the field would improve his team 100 per cent. Tonight the Front Street and Goodyear should meet in one of the best battles of the season. The winner of tonight's game will probably be the winner of the first schedule. RULE REGARDING WATER DEPOSITS (Continued from page 1) "The previous occupant of the house notified us that he was vacating the premises a day or two ahead while these people, when moving in, did not tell us about it, and ask for the water to remain on, until the same day that they occupied the premises. The result was that our man who does this 'kind of service work got his list early in the morning and we were asked to leave the water on in the forenoon, too late to stop action until our man came in after his dinner hour." Commenting on the situation Commissioner Mason stated "when this rule was decided on the sug- gestion was made that tenants only should be asked tor a deposit, but this appeared like very glaring dis- crimination, It is hard to tell, some- times, who are owners when they have less interest in their home than the usual run of tenants. It is really a splendid protection for landlords." Little Boy (looking at mother's new opera wrap): "How that poor beast must have that you could have such a fur coat." Mother: "Hush! Roscoe. You shouldn't talk so of your father." COMING EVENTS 8 Cents per word each in- sertion, Minimum charge for each insertion, 85c.

OF HEALTH (Continued from page 1) lations Dr, McKay states that "the general intention appears to have been, as far as possible, to relieve the general public from any feeling of oppression in con- nection with the health regula- tions, having due regard, of course, for the public safety and welfare. "As regards the addition of hookworm to the official list of communicable diseases, we sel- dom meet with this disease in Ontario, "It is only right, in my opin- ion, that erysipelas . should be added to the list. Contrary to the almost general opinion among laymen this disease can be de- veloped from other causes be- sides wounds which may become septic. There are often cases of old people who develop - facial erysipelas, in which there is grave danger of infection to the person. nursing them, It is so often the case that an elderly person is engaged in waiting upon another elderly person who is sick,-and the nurse, if she has even a trivial scratch, is in danger of infection. There is no quarantine for contacts in this case, "The addition of trench mouth also appears reasonable, This disease is seen sometimes in a very malignant form and is high- ly contagious," said the M.O.H. As regards tularacmia, which has been added to the list of communicable diseases in this province which must he reported to the health authorities and quarantined, Dr. McKay de- scribed this disease as originat- ing from rabbits, and developing as 'crops of boils". It was.first noticed in New Ontario, with isolated cases In [Eastern On- tario, while it is chiefly found in the Southern States. 'People who handle the carcases and skins of rabbits are susceptible to this disease, but its study fis more academic than practical in Ontario", said Dr. McKay, The M.O.H. pointed out that in the preparation of copies for the information of Health Officers and the general public, great im- provements have been made. "Kach disease, with the accepted method. of treatment, regulations regarding quarantine and regis- tration, together with all the es- sential facts regarding the rules governing its handling, are all printed in alphabetical order so that an official of this or any other board can goto the house- holder in whose home a disease occurs, and point to a definite paragraph and say 'this, or that, is just what has to be done'. Un- der the old system it was neces- sary to jump from clause to clause, and paragraph to para- graph, causing mental confusion even amongst those of us who were used to reading the regula- tions." : Patronize Our ~ Modern Drug Store || Our up-to-date drug store | is not like the old fashion ed nest-hole of a thousand. and-one dusty bottles and mortars of various sizes, It is an institution of SER- VICE--providing preventa« tives of sickness as well as curatives. fi Medicine Cabinet Require ments, Toilet Articles, Soaps, Perfumery, and ine numerable articles which you constantly require, are also carried in stock, Prescriptions care- fully, accurately and promptly filled Karns Drug Store | Next P, O, a A styles. | and black satin.
