Following the luncheon meeting of the Rotary Club at noon which was addressed by Mr. Charles R. Con- quergood, president and general manager of the Canada Printing Ink Co., of Toronto, whose talk cen- tered on the invention of printing and its progress to the present time, the displays of early and modern printing were thrown open to the public. Picture of Royal Family Centering the exhibits was a large armanged type. Keen-eyed children once saw that the type picture pup of letters.

Special Exhibit Books dating back to 1698 feature a special exhibit made possible by loans of valued heirlooms. Among those whose loans created such wide interest are Rav. W. Harold Reid, minister of Knox Presbyterian Church; H. Stephenson, Graydon Goodfellow, H. D. Tressider, and B. C. Colpus. Rev. Mr. Reid loaned a number of newspaper dating back to the early part of the past century. These included copies of The In- telligencer, Belleville, more than a century old; and copies of the - Brighton, England, "Guardian." One was printed in the year prior to Queen Victoria's coronation. Mr. Colpus loaned a book of 164 pages which are each one inch by a one and a half inch in size. The indenture of-his apprentice- ship in 1891 is also shown and at- tracted wide interest. Among books loaned by H. D. Tressider, of Toronto, are a copy of John Bunyan's "Holy War," and a handwritten diary begun in 1691. If the writer had been as frank and as faithful to his diary as John Evelyn. or Samuel Pepys was, then he might have won literary immor- tality. Original design for a Sun Life calendar which cost $1,000, drawn by Richard Edes Harrison, New York, well known illustrator for ad- vertisers using the magazines "Life," "Time" and "Fortune" was shown in the Oshawa Printing Firms ex- hibits at the Genosha Hotel. In another section, original art work for General Motors' calendars, empasising the beauty of Canadian scenery and featuring work by Can- adian artists, is well worth seeing more than once. Rotary Press Exhibit Rotary Press printing featured one vibrant section in the Genosha banquet room. Colorful examples of work, done in Oshawa by such large Canadian firms as Eaton's, Chain- way Stores, and .Yolles Furniture Company form the background for 'an exhibit of how a daily newspaper is printed. Form of one recent front page of The Oshawa Daily Times is shown along with mats from which cylind- ers for the rotary press are cast in molten lead. Magazines such as the Canadian Florist, Horticulture and "Home, printed in Oshawa, are exhibited. Examples of beautiful color work in sales publicity of large Canadian companies; produced in Oshawa by printers, made visitors to the print- ing exhibits proud of their home city and for reasons many had not known before. Volunteers from local printing firms acted as exhibit guides to visitors. Among them were Tom Gilchrist, 8. R. Alger, Douglas Chees- borugh, and Miller Alloway. VALUABLE WASTE Stockholm (CP)--Sweden is hav- ing its cotton waste cleaned and carded, and a valuable by-product of the washing is oil, which forms about 30 per cent of vhe weight of the waste, Guard Rail Posts Wrecked By Truck Port Hope, Oct. 29--Four guard rail posts were taken out near Mor- rish, west of here, when a truck went into the ditch after a side- swipe with a car. According to Provincial Constable H. McKéllar of Port Hope, who investigated, a car was going east when it swerved and went into the right side of a west-bound transport. The car was a total wreck, but nobody was in- jured. COURTICE OWNER BEAGLE WINNER Lloyd Courtice Captures Premier Honors at Meet Newcastle, Oct. 20--LloYd Courtice, of Courtice, took premier honors at the annual field trials of the Osh- awa Beagle Club here over the week-end when he won firsts *in | both the 13-inch classes with High- land Goldman and Harkaway Fan. Although cottontails were scarce, due to activities of owls, foxes and cats, sufficient' trails were found for | the trial runs. An added attraction | not on the program resulted when a pack of several dogs out for exercise in lunch hour picked up a fox trail and ran the animal for more than a | mile. Many Entries | Entries were on hand from Rod- ney, Montreal, Toronto, Peterboro, Hamilton, London, Buffalo, Detroit and the Oshawa district. Earl O.

Another R.C.AF. man told officers that he had seen a car draw up alongside the body and the driver had looked out of the win- | dow. As the air force man ap- proached the car, it sped away. Aircraftman Stocken was walking | on the roadway when he was | struck. Inspector John Vernon said that he had learned that it was the intention of the officers in charge to build a walk around the depot for the sentries.

The biggest Chinese attack since | the war began took place at mid- | night, Aug. 20.

They blew up bridges and destroyed track on the Shih- chiachuang-Taiyuanfu line, broke | the line and destroyed telegraph and telephone ° lines along the Peiping-Hankow railway During clashes the Japanese maintain they killed more than 6.000 Chinese soldiers with the loss of only seven of their own troops.
