The game was heralded as the gawe of the season and it certainly was exciting for a time. Both teams were keyed up with the result that there were a goodly number of errors but no lack of excite. nent. Smith was back with Front Street but was changed for Us- borne in the second innings ani the latter started right into worl, the High School getting very few hits off his smart pitching. Front Street batted first and scored an odd run and the stu- dents equalize in their first frame. Front Street took a lead in the second with three more runs and then 6 in the 4th holding the High School down to three in the third. As the gamé neared its end the scholars made a great effort to overcome an eight run lead but only scored two. Don 'Williams hit a sure home run and was put out for failing to touch seccnd base and hrs father, who manages the team and who play- ed, hit another sure home run and passed. the second base without touching but recovered himself in time, ran back and touched it and then reached third. Smith bad three strike outs in the first innings and a half, when he was removed, and Osborne had four to his credit. Ace Richards, pit- ching for the students was a lit- tle off and the Front Street got hits aplenty from him. Jack Culley was the only man to score a home run but there were others that came mighty near. Culley also played a good game in left field and caught one or two of those seemingly impossible ones, where the fielder has to run about 200 feet to catch the ball. Tonight the Goodyear and Knit- ting factory meet and a win for the former might give them a chance in the playoffs. Including tonight's game there are only six more to be played before the play- offs which will probably be be- Fiween Front Street and High School. If Front Street win the schedule there will be no playoffs for the'champjonship as they also won the first schedule The teams last night were: Frone Street: Osborne p, Hoop- er c¢, Jamieson 1b. Cole 2b, James 3h, Hall ss, Candler rf., Bates ¢f., Culley If. High School: Richards vp. Adams c., Colmer 1b., Slemon 2b., Mutton 3b., E. Bagnell ss., ». Williams, rf.,, D. Williams cf, W.

A. Mc- Gibbon of Oshawa for possible action, "Those who took skulls away are béing ordered to bring them back," Constable Carr said. "The penalty for disturbing any burial ground is up to five years' im- prisonment. I understand from the owner of the property that these bones are of soldiers who fought with and against Brock in 1812 and I think it is a shame that. morbid people should dis- turb their remains." WOULD REVISE BRITISH POLICY Paris, Aug. 25.--In the opinion of most French newspapers com- menting to-day, the resignation of Rt. Hon. Ramsay MacDonald as premier of Great Britain opens the way for revision of the whole British policy affecting finances and the dole. All '\but the Soclalist newspa- pers assert that reform of the dole is an urgent necessity. The. Liberal L'Oeuvre assert that Great Britain is now meeting the BM. F.

ORMISTON DAILY TIMES news will be received at the | PATENT DEVICE UNION SERVICES DURING SUMMER WERE SUCCESSFUL United and Baptist Con- gregations Enjoyed Fellowship At the close of the union wer- tices held during four Sundays in August between the United and Baptist congregations, the muister who has been in charge, Rev. T. F. Best, of the Bantist Church, at both services on Sun- day, referred to the great success which had attended this congrega- ticnal Christian fellowship. The attendance at the morning ser- vice in the United Church, the largest of the four Sunday#, he stated, was particularly gratify- ing Personally he had enjoyed the fellowship, and had derived great benefit therefrom. Rev, Mr Best extended his thanks to those who had been in charge of the music, and all others who had heiped to make the services bright and helpful. - He expressed the hope that the pleasant relation- ship which has existed between the two congregations during the services this and other years would continue. In his prayers he asked for a safe return and spiritual guidance of the United Church minister, Rev. A. L. Rich- ards, B.D., and also that he might enjoy a great measure of success in the work to which he had been celled. At the morning service Rev. Mr. Best continued his 'series of sermons on some of the psalms, wiich have been very popular with the congregation. His theme was the beaugirul twenty-inird psalm. During the service the boys from the Fresh Air Camp at Heydenshore Park sang, and Mr. Giffird, who 1s in charge, was called upon to address the cou- gregation, Briefly he thanked the people of Whitby for their k!ndness during the present camp season to the children and help- ers. He regretted to state that the camp would close shortly, per- haps not to open again in Whitby. In the evening at the Baptist Church Rev. Mr. Best spoke on the subject, "Running Waters." There were frequent references all through the bible to water, he stated, all reminding him of the water of life so beautifully referred to by Jesus and in the book of the Revelation. During the month of August Mr. Robin Nicholson presided at the organ, and a mixed choir led in the singing. In July when the two congregations united the ser- vices were in charge of Rev. A. I Richards, B.D., of the Church.

Lindbergh along a certain portion of the Kurile Island route in their much inter- rupted flight from Petropaviovsk, Kamchatka, to Nemuro, Japan, The news agency said Japanese authorities contended that the famous aviator and his wife had flown over prohibited areas and had descended twice in lakes where landings were prohibited.

Hon. Stan- ley Baldwin, Conservative leader, is- sucd a statement late last night giv- ing the reasons why the Conserva- tives consented to enter the Na- tional government, "The formation of a national gov- ernment, containing members of the three parties in the state," the sta- tement said, "is a guarantee to all concerned, at home and abroad, that the gravity of the situation is realized by those to whom the facts have been made known and that they are resolved at once to take the measures necessary to put the finances of the country in order, "We are face to face with a grave national crisis, which, if it were not taken in hand with courage and firmness, would be fraught with serious consequences to every man, woman and child throughout the country, "But our country always gives proof of its greatness in times of na- tional emergency and I have suffi- cient confidence in our people to know that this occasion will be no exception to the rule. The crisis with which we are faced demands prompt and immediate measures and dissolution of Parliament at this stage, followed by a general elec- tion, would be disastrous. This fact dominates the situation at the mo- ment, Co-operation the Only Way "The only means by which the national 'emergency can be met is close co-operation between all the parties. For this purpose we Con- servatives have consented for a lim- ited period of time, to enter a na- tional government which will be formed for the express purpose of carrying out such measures as are required to balance the budget and restore confidence in our national credit and there is no question of any permanent coalition, "The national government has been allotted a definite task, and on its completion it is understood that Parliament will be dissolved as soon as circumstances © permit and that each of the parties be left free .to place its wn policy before the elec- tors for approval, "By this means no party will bs called upon to sacrifice any prin- ciple in which it believes.

Being foldable they take a very small space and can be mech- anically filled with air through a pneumatic device operated from the inside of the ship itself, When completely filled with air they increase the displacement of the submarine very considerably and are claimed to be able to raise it to the surface. The pontoons are extremely light in weight, and being many in number, a few of them will always remain intact and to be inflated in case .of a collision, The invention includes a special arrangement calculated to regulate automatically the atmos- pheric pressure to correspond with the pressure of the surrounding water, while the submarine is being Stockholm eady [lifted up to the surface by aid of | the pontoons, | HAD THREE HUSBANDS | Sydney, Australia--A remarkable | story was unfolded at the Kogarah Police Court recently when three men related how they all had mar- ried the same woman, One of them, it was stated, had even served a term in jail for non-payment of maintenance to her. The accused, a domestic, was committed by the magistrate for trial on three bigamy charges. After the hearing in po- lice court the three men in the case chatted together outside of the court room, where they had been during the court proceedings except when wanted. When one of them was wanted in the court room a con- stable put his head around the door and called out: "Husband No. 1" (or No. 2 or 3), "you're wanted over 1S. MAY BE ABLE T0 SELL GRAIN STRICKEN CHINA Farm Board Is Negotiating With Nanking Gov- ernment Washington, Aug. 24.--The sale of 15,000,000 bushels of stabilization wheat for the relief of Chinese flood sufferers seemed in prospect recent- ly with an announcement thaf the TFarm Board had authorized negotia- tions to that end with the Nanking Government. Chairman Stone said the board, in response to an informal inquiry, had informed the Chinese Government that the Grain Stabilization Corpor- ation, owner of more than 200,000,- 000 bushels of surplus wheat, would be glad to discuss the proposed tran- saction with Chinese officials. The question of payment has not been considered, but Stone said he assumed it would be on a long term credit basis backed by direct govern- mental obligations. The sale price is to be the market price at the time of shipment. Stone predicted extensive cotton acreage reduction next year would result from the board's recept sug- gestion that one third of the cur- rent crop be destroyed. Although the plan has apparently been rejected by the southern states, he added, its proposal had revealed the seriousness of the situation and had set the farmers-to thinking. While considering the Chinese sit- vation, the seriousness of which Stone said was unknown to the peo- ple of the United States, the board also has given informal attention to domestic food relief, : The chairman said the suggestion of Samuel McKelvie, former board member, that some of the wheat surplus. be made available for the needy in cities in the form of country to put aside party differ- ences for the time being and co- operate in the national interests. In that task we Conservatives will play nd cour; V sw 7H 4 bread, has been under consideration for the last ten days. Market for Brazil Washington, Aug. 24--The Fed- eral Farm Board seemed to have found a market in Brazil for 25,- 000,000 bushels of surplus wheat by reverting to the bartering system of the ancients. The Brazilian Government in Rio De Janeiro announced officially that it had delivered to the United States Government an agreement providing for exchange of 1,275,000 sacks of coffee for 25,000,000 bushels of wheat. At the same time the farin Loard was prepared to negotiate with the Chinese Government for sale of 15,000,000 bushels of wheat on long- term credit. This would be used to feed famine and flood victims. The Brazilian and Chinese sales would reduce the board's wheat stocks by 40,000,000 bushels. It now holds. a total of about 275,000,000 bushels. BIG NEW GLASGOW DOCK IS SYMBOL OF GREAT FAITH Over One Mile of New Quays Added to City's Harbor Glasgow, Scotland. The new dock, which was opened by the King recently, is a witness to Glas- gow's faith in its own future. Many of the shipyards on the Clyde arc standing idle today, but the tidal basin constructed at Shicldhall adds at a cost of $10,000,000 a further 20 acres of water, and over a mfle of quays, to the city's harbor. It the first instalment of a scheme which will give the port six miles of deep-water berthage. It was many years ago that the Clyde Navigation Trustees, having in mind the future needs of Glas- gow, bought 700 acres of land be- tween Shieldhall and Renfrew, but a begininng with the present scheme eo on made until 1924. Tt was ne- to divert the public road be- Renfrew for a A new was cessary tween Govan and length of nearly two miles. roadway, costing $1,250,000 ; made by the trustees and brought into use six years ago. While the road was still under construction the building of the new dock began. Tt was made 350 ft. wide and 2,483 ft. long. The en- trance was set back from: the river bank to give a clear width of 650 ft for the canting of vessels, and an additional nine acres 18 thus, thrown into the water area of the river. i was given a depth at low water 0 32 ft. and a depth of 4 ft. at high water, and so made fit to accom- modate the biggest vessels fre- quenting the port.

US. APPLIGANTS ARE WARNED OFF No Immigrants Need Apply | For Work in Canada -- Ottawa, Aug. -- United States citizens intending to come to Canada to obtain employment or Government relief works had | better stay at home, Hon. G. D. Robertson, Minister of Labor, said yesterday. Announcements of the | heavy program of public works to relieve unemployment has brought about a threatened inva- sion of unemployed into this country, but "no immigration from across the southern bound- ary is desired, nor can it be abh- sorbed," Senator Robertson said. "The policy and intenfion of the Dominion Cévarnment i= to create all possible emproyment opportunities for residents of Canada, particularly Eritith sub- jects. Persons entering Canada during the coming winter months with the desire to obiain ployment on Government work must expect to meet disap- pcintment, "This is particularly the case," the minister stared, when they consider the numerous instances of Canadian citizens being dis- missed from employment in the United States. "I have already received aavice that a tide of illegal {immigration threatens to invade Western Can- ada, probably because of the usual rovement of harvest hands north- ward as the harvesting season advances. The regulations gov- erning the expenditure of public nioney for unemployment relief prcvide all persons employed shall bo residents of Canada. In the matter of harvesting operatiobs, the provincial Government of Manitoba has already emphasized tlie desire of the Canadian people themselves that only residents of Canada he engagea In the har- vest." Deportation will face trans- ients from the United States who come here looking for work, the minister declared. Canadian im- migration regulations debar '1m- migrants who are liable to be- ccme a public charge and unem- ployed. from other countries fall in that category under the regu- lations. The chief difficulty is created by immigrants who enter in the guise of visitors and the remain looking' for employment. 25. em- yelief Prompt action would be taken to ceport all those who stay hers illegally. GANDH ON WAY . TO WILLINGDON Mahatma To Confer With Viceroy Concerning - Troubles ss Ahmedabad, India, Mahatma Gandhi set out on Sun- day in a third-class railway com- partment with his mattress, spin- ning-wheel and his can of goat's milk, on his way to Simla to con- fer with Earl Willingdon, Viceroy of India. The Mahatma, as representa- tive of the Hindu nationalist com= gress party, will leave. for London on August 29 to attend the second round-table conference, if agree- ment can be reached between him- celf and the Viceroy regarding Gandhi's charges of violations by the authorities of the Delhi truce between the Government and the Congress. "I contend that the appoint- ment of an impartial tribunal is implicit in the Delhi settlement, in the event of differences arising between the Government and the congress regarding its interpreta- tion or its working practice," said Gandhi in a telegram sent to the Viceroy asking for an interview. "But I would waive such an en- quiry now if, by quiet personal discussion, or some such informal means, reasonable satisfaction is given to the congress." This was taken as meaning Gandhi will not insist literally up- on the appointment of a tribunal tc investigate his charges, if Earl Willingdon satisfies him in other respects. Gandhi took with him to Simla Vallabhai Patel, president of the nationalist congress: Pandit Jaw- aharlal Nehru, who ranks next to Gandhi as leader of the national. ists, and Abdul Gafar Khan, who is known as the "Gandhi" of the northwest frontier. Some observers believe the Mahatma is receding from his former stand because he believes if the Labor Government in Great Britain collapsed he would have little chance of reaching agree- The present crisis in London is be- ing watched here with deep an- xiety.
