THE WHITBY Advertising, subscriptions and Whitby Branch Office at Gazette and Chronicle~Telephone REPRESENTATIVE-JAMES E. ORMISTON , DAILY TIMES news will be received at the MODERATOR TELLS OF CONDITIONS IN * CANADIAN WEST "Two Gatherings in Whitby Friday Bg ( Staff Writer) Direct from a tour of western Canada, which took him almost to the Pacific Coast, and during which he drove 400 miles through the Saskatchewan area, Rev. Ed- mund H. Oliver. D.D., moderator of the United Church of Canada, came to Whitby Friday morning nd addréss to important church. gatherings. Dr. Oliver arrived from the west early in the morn- ing, and was in' Whitby a few hotirs later, The moderator was introduced to the Rural Life Conference which has been in session at the Ontario Ladies' College all week, also the secretaries of the church who had arrived during the morning to attend another con- ference on conditios in Western Canada. He was accompanied by Rev. R. B. Cochrane, secretary of Home Missions. The Rural Life Conference was just cloeing its sessions as the distinguished churchman arrived, and while they stood in the form of a cross the moderator spoke briefly of the significance of the cross in human experience. The gathering broke up after singing 'In the Cross of Christ I Glory." In the afternoon Rev. Dr. Oliver addressed the secretaries of the church at a conference which opened in the college lib- rary. Speaking of conditions as he found them in Western Can- ada, particularly in a portion of the province of Saskatchewan, the moderator stated that he was impressed, with four things, name- ly, unemployment among the people, the law prices of farm products, the shortage of money and in° one important area, drouth. Dealing with church conditiops in Southern . Saskatchewan, Rev Dr, Oliver stated that the emer- gency was not csly for 1931, but it would continue until the 1932 crop was harvested. Home mis- sion grants made in the late winter, in accordance with condi- tions then existing, would have to be increased hecause of the change brought about by the drought. There would have to be an increase in the number of grants in that area because many self supporting charges were now hard hit. The church, Dr, Oliver continued, would also have to make good the decreased glvings in these churches, some of which in good times had been helping weaker neighbors, . Granting Relief Dr. Oliver stressed that re- lief would have to be provided for the stricken people. It was the responsibility of the government to provide food, fuel and fodder and to take the lead in providing clothing. The church could sup- plement used clothing, to help with new clothing supplied by hte government. Bales could be shipped from the east, VISION & COMFORT Eyesight Service 0. H. TUCK, Opt. D.

Ohiurch' Look; After Work . The moderator stated that the United Church should look after 'her own work in the west, as th: people needed spiritual ministra- tion as never before. He Was pleased with 'the fine spiritual atmosphere' of the people in their present difficulties. There was more of a 'longing for God and the things of the Kingdom, Dr. Oliver read several letters received . from." ministers and others in the stricken area of the west which revealed startling conditions which called for the sympathy of all, demonstrated in some - tangible manner. The church, he stated, had a great task but a splendid opportunity to prove its worth. He closed with a general picture of Saskat- chewan as he saw it, with its fileds -dried up, vegetation gone and its desert-like appearance and atmosphere, But through the dark clouds he could see the rays of hope. The people were deter- mined to carry on despite their difficulties. He recalled that the name Saskatchewan meant "Liv- ing Waters", and this name was symbolic of the spirit of the people. Dr. Oliver presided all after- noon at the secretarial confer- ence, when important church matters were discussed. LARGER PARISH PLAN FAVORED BY CONFERENCE Recommended to Cobourg, Norfolk, Haldimand Presbyteries (By Whitby Staff Writer) After passing a number of im- portant resolutions - based on committee findings, the Rural Life Conference which has been in session all week at the On- tario Ladies' College closed on Friday noon, following an ad- dress by the Moderator, Rev. Ed- mund H. Oliver, D.D. Larger Parish Idea One of the rseolutions was as follows, presented by the larger parish group: "That in view of the great needs, spiritual = and financial, in many of our rural districts, and the need for more effective work on the part of the church, we + would suggest that the larger parich plan (adopted in other counties) should be studied wherever pos- sible, That a campaign of education be carried out through church periodicals to familarize our people with the details of this plan, That we request the Norfolk, Haldimand and Cobourg Presby- teries to co-operate with the Board of Religious Education and the Board of Home Missions in making a detailed survey of areas in these Presbyteries where the larger parish idea might be tried. The report. of the Religious Education group was a compre- hensive ome. It urged rural min- isters set themselves to the task as spiritual leaders by using dur- ing the coming season as many of the following suggestions as are suited to the local situation. 1. Vital teaching and preaching that takes Jesus Christ serious- y. 2. Directing a programme of constructive evangelism in the church. ; 3. Co-operation with the pub- lic school as one of the most vital and character-determining agencies in the community. 4. A broadened programme of education. among young people and adults, seeking to make them intelligent and responsive to the vital problems of religion, the church, the community, the nation and the world.

An important report was also presented by the group, on the study of rural life copditions, It contained some fine recommenda- tions. All reports were adopted.

Cw 2 IRA Charged in Police Court Thurs- day afternoon before Magistrate Willis with a vielation of the In- land Revenue Act' of Canada in having in his possession alcohol illegally imported, John Strata- chuk, of Niagara Falls, pleaded guilty and was fined $200 and costs or one month in jail, with an additional six months if the costs are not paid. Stratchuk a few weeks ago was caught in Whitby with a large cargo of alcohol and was fined $1,000 and costs or three months' imprison- ment, also another month for refusing to tell where he got the alcohol. The court disbelieved his story that he was being paid for hauling the wet goods by a man whom he did not know. Strata- chuk faces the best part of a year in jail if the.fines and costs in both cases are not paid. It is the opinion of the au- thorities that the accused was only the agent for 'the man "higher up" in the bootlegging game, also that he knows the man for whom he was hauling the wet cargo. Under the Liquor Control' Act he is required to tell how he came into the possession of the liquor found in his charge. The alcohol, it is now be- lieved, came from the United States, being smuggled probably over the border.

CROWD AT LAKE SHORE A The shore at Lakeview Park was lined yesterday evening by people who were {interested in the small outboard motorboats to be seen in the Harbour, and the graceful yachts which made their way out into open water from the inner basin from time to time. The boats shared interest last night with the swimmers who are in training for the big swim in Toronto. YAGHT CLUB HOME FORMALLY OPENED (Continued from page 1) they had the material in thelr ranks for continued success. A Peep Into the Future Ross McKinnon also spoke briefly in the same strain, while Col. B. J. McCormick, represéat- ing the Oshawa Chamber of C.m- merce on behalf of its president, Frank L. Mason, pointed to the fact that it was just a year ago that the harbor was opened, so that the young men of the city liad not lost any time in making use of it. He predicted that with. in a very few years the club would have a much larger club house on a permanent site mor: accessible to the city, and that it would be the centre of much of, the social life of the community. Allan MacDuff, chairman of the sailing division of the ciub, and Eldon Stacey, the commnio- dore, also spoke, and expressed their appreciation of the attend. ance of the guests.

The- serious nature of her illness was not gen- erally known except to her im- mediate relatives, and the news of her sudden passing came as a great shock to the large circle of friends with which shq had sur- rounded herself.

She was a daughter of the late Al- tert Adams and Mrs. Adams, For tuirteen years Miss Adams was cashier of the Chevrolet Division of the General Motors of Can- ada, Limited, and won the es- teem and affection of all who were associated with her in that capacity, About fourteen months go she acquired the Queen Mary undy Shop, on King Street East, and had built up a large clientele among the citizens of the com- munity. She was a member of the Simcoe Street United Church and for a number of years, was a member of the choir, In addition to her mother, Miss Adams is survived by her only sister, Mrs. C, M. Mundy, this city. The funeral will beheld from the home of her sister, Mrs. C. M. Mundy, 408 Simcoe Street North, on Monday afternoon at 2.20 p.m., with Rev. E.

"Stay away from the Job altogether," said this unem- ployed leader. "Let those who want to work in slavery for the Gas Company do so if they want to. .We won't interfere with them." Will Resume Tuesday The Folwell Engineering Co., contractors with the Gas Company for the laying of the pipe lines from Oshawa to Bowmanville, plan to carry on with the job that has been interfered with during the last two days, with work re- commencing within the city lim- its on Tuesday after the Civic Holiday, / The policy to be adopted by the company for Tuesday at 1 p.m. 80 that every man who is willing to start work, will have his dis- tance measured out for him, and will have an opportunity to do so, the contractor then proposes to leave it entirely with the men whether they continue to work, or whether they will allow themsel- ves to be dissuaded from working by others who are unemployed.

As In the game on Thursday night the Front Street led all the way through but came near dropping behind towards the last when Smith again gave out. In the first part of the game Smith wag right on and in their first two innings the Whiz Lubri-§ cators were unable to score at all. Front Street on the other hand repeated their game of the previ- ous night and ran up a score ear- ly on. The first inning was pro- ductive of 6 runs, Bates and James came in and with three men on bases Hooper scored a homer which brought in the other four. In the next frame with two men down they added another four runs bringing the score to 10-0. Whiz. broke away in the third when Dub Piper started off with a three-bagger and three came home during the inning. Front Street continued to add to their score and did not niiss an inning without a run. At the end of the fourth the score stood at 13 to 6 for Front Street and at the end of the sixth it stood at 18 to 6. As the game drew near its close Whiz made a great effort and Witheridge and Piper came home ig the seventh, and six more came home in the eighth, Large scoring a homer, making up some. what for his two errors in the game. For the first time anyone seems to remember since Large has been playing ball he dropped two catches, that were right in his hands. The Whiz final trys saw five more rung come home but it was too late and they were un- able to reach the 21 score in which Front Street were on- entrenched. Front Street had four homers to their credit in the eight innings they played, Hooper scoring two, Culley one and John- ny James one. As mentioned above this gives the Front Street the first schedule championship and perhaps the cup, as it has not been fecided as yet whether to run another sched- ule or to run a lacrosse schedule. Front Street's record shows that they have played 12 games, won 10 and lost only 2, a really good record. They have a good all- round team and not ome man is a slacker.. Smith is about ag good a pitch- er as there is in the league, and Hooper is considered the best catcher. Jamieson, Cole and James 'on the bases are all reli- able, and Hall at short stop is about the best all-round ball play- er in the town. Candler, Bates and Culley make as good an out- field as there is in the league. Oke is about the only man who has subbed regularly for them. The teams in the final game were: Front Btreet. Smith p.

Ae OAR PRIZE IDEA : ABANDONED Bowmanville Rotary Club Decides to Provide Im- posing List of Prizes Bowmanville Rotary Club have abandoned the idea of giving an automobile for a grand prize at their Street Carnival which takes place on August 26th. Opposition from the city of Oshawa and from other places is the cause for the change. Ap- parently there have been about half a dozen cars given away in this section this summer already and the Oshawa Police are about tired of seeing them around so they made a request that . the Bowmanville car, if there was one, that it did not come to Osh- awa, on account of definite in- structions from the attorney-gen~ eral. In place of the car the fol- lowing prize list has been adopted and it will probably prove more popular than the car. 1st.--General Electric Refriger. ator, valued at $292. 2nd.--Sani-Bilt 3 piece Chester- field suite, valued at $175.000.

PARKER (Continued from pagd 1) I sent telegrams to the Liberal members and that he has one. I asked him yesterday to produce it if he had one. He does not do so. Untii he produces the one he says he Las before him, there iv no evidence for the public. He says he is going to produce it in October at the annual meeting of the Ontario Liberal Association. As this is the first annual meeting of the association for several years, he apparently does not know the objects of guch meetings and is going to stage a public quarrel with me then. It should draw a large crowd. Possibly he expects to be chairman and allow only himself to speak on the mat- ter. "I shave asked Mr. Parker to produce the telegram if he has one. I ask him again to-day to produce the telegram now which he says he has befqore him, and to let the public know what it con- tains and to whom it was sent and when and how Mr. Parker receiv- ed it. October is too fer away and the Liberal Association ig not the proper place. He first nade it a public matter by an interview in the press and now says the press is not the proper place for me to reply. Let him produce the telegram and produge it now, and we can see who is trying to undermine and disrupt the prov- incial Liebral party and also. the reasons for Mr. Parker's ' out- break.' a I ae A firm of shipowners wired one of their captains: ""Move heaven and earth; get here on Friday."
