Successful Rest Cure The trip was meant to be a rest cure and a health treatment for the couple as they returned almost glowing with health. Mr, Platt, who was overseas in both World Wars I and II, until his retirement in June, operated a bake shop on Brock Street South, He sold it on hig doctor's advice and started out to regain his health by seeing as much of Canada as possible, On the first half of the trip they drove down to the Gaspe penin- sul going through Montreal, Que- bec, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia en route, and stopping off for a few days whenever they felt like it. They found the people there more prosperous than in pre war years, much building develop- ment going on, and they found all the roads good save some through New Brunswick, Coming back they travelled through the New England States, staying for a few days in Portland, Maine. There they were fortunate enough to see a giant American battleship, the USS, Missouri, on which just over a year ago General MacArthur accepted the surrender of the defeated Japanese, Few Service Stations After a week in Whitby they were off again, this time westwards to the prairies and the mountains of western Canada. They followed the Trans-Canada highway north of Lake Superior into Winnipeg where they visited relatives, On their way across the prairies they were im) alike by the magni- ficent harvest then being reaped, and also by the scarcity-of service stations along the road. The high- way is gravel with just a touch of washboard, They saw Banff and Lake Louise, ful city," was their description of the western capital. The size of the trees there, the mountain back- ground and the splendid weather all impressed them very favorably. Their return trip from British Columbia was along the old "Ore- gon Trail" through the western states, Oregon, Nebraska, Utah and Iowa, and then on to Cleveland and Buffalo and home. In Wyoming they saw one of the famous and thrilling rodeos, -° Mr. Platt sald that his camera was being repaired when he went east but that he had it with him for his western junket and took many pictures, which he will prob- ably show at the drop of a hint. He is also very proud of the way his car, a '46 Plymouth, and his tires behaved, experiencing no trouble with either, But now they are back again, and Mr, Platt says that now that he feels 50 much better he will have to take up the considerable probe lem of earning a living again.

The threat of rain and impending dark- ness forced the stopping of the game after four innings, after the Juniors, currently awaiting a de- cision on a disputed game with Bowmanville, had led from the first inning. The Juveniles answered the Ju- niors first inning two runs with a single tally in their half of the first when MecLoskey singled and ad- vanced to second on a pitch out, to get thrown out trying to reach third, Anderson walked and scored on singles by Yuill and but Yuill was caught out at Hanna Bed out to right to third, Fletcher went down swing- ing and Mowat was out, shorstop to first, Singles by Reed and Harden added another run for the Juniors in the third, and MacDonald, who relieved Quantrill, faced only three batters in the inning. The Juniors picked up their final run in the fourth and last inning when Reed singled, was advanced by IL. Yulll's out, pitcher to first, and scored on a single by Harden. The juveniles tried hard to catch up in their final twn at bat, load- ne the bases, but they were unable push a man across the home | =m plate and the game ended with the score 6-1 for the Juniors, Lineups: ROTARY JUNIORS:--Rae, 1b; McEwen, and 2b; Quantrill, p; Lowe, rf; Reed, 3b; Yulll, ss; Har- den, ¢; McCloskey, P., JUVENILES 1. :--McCioskey, 0; An- |For derson, 3b; Yulll D., ss; Gaine, 1b; Hanna, p; Turansky, 3b; Fletcher, if; Mowat, cf; Lovell, rf. Expropriation Hearing Is Set For September 19 The land expropriated ' by the town last week, which belonged to Isaac Levine, and on which he re- gistered an option to sell for $50,000 will be under discussion on Septem- | ber 19, when Judge D. B. Coleman holds a preliminary hearing in his .» | Chambers, Main purpose of the hearing will be to settle a price for the land in question, 15 acres east of Brock Street South near the harbor. Fur- ther arbitration may be necesssary before the price is agreed upon. This is a result of the expropria- tion bylaw passed at the last meet- ing of the Town Council, when on a request from Anglo Petroleum Limited the Council took action to obtain the land. The immediate re- sult of this was the registering the next day of an option agreement between Mr, Levine and Argo Pe- troleum Limited for the entire farm property. Considerable interest has been aroused on the question, and las the Anglo firm are eager to start building operations as soon as possible, an early date was chos- en for the hearing.

Totten, representing the Lord's Day Alliance, delivered F | the address in the United church THE TIMES-GAZETTE Tuesday, September 10, 1946 |] on Sunday morning, For his test he used the Fourth Commandment and read Luke's Account of the way in which Jesus spent the Sabbath Day. He spoke of the Sabbath observance in former years and of the trend at this time to forget the day of rest. The Lord's Day Alliance was organ- ized some fifty years ago in the city of Ottawa under the direction of the four leading churches in Canada, The Anglican, Baptist, Methodist and Presbyterian, The object of this soclety is to safe- guard the vital values of Sunday as the national weekly day of rest. Each Province has its own set up and co-operates with the Dominion organization in regard to policy and objective. In 19008 the Dominion Parliament enacted the Lord's Day Act of Canada and by this Act, Canadians have established their legal right to Sunday as their week- ly day of rest. The Alliance does not aim to prosecute offenders but to promote an intelligent under standing of the laws in regard to the Sabbath. The financial obliga- tions are met by the free will of~ ferings of Christian people who wish to preserve the sanctity of the Sabbath. Mrs, Flossie Jones has moved in- to rooms with Mr, and Mrs, Thos. Greer while her house is being built. Mrs. A, J. Cook spent several days this week with her daughter Mrs. Neil Malcolm at Blackstock. Mr, Jos. Garbutt is home again after his eye operation in Toronto General Hospital. Mr, and Mrs. Roy Walls are on holidays this week and left on Bat- urday for Owen Sound. DREDGE PORT (Continued from Page 4) been with the company for 25 years, is superintending the job and ex- pects it to take a week or ten days. To extend the fil] farther north he simply adds another length of pipe. He said that the first few minutes of pumping produced mostly water, until the scow got into position over the sandbar, Known In Whitby Captain of the dredge is R. Pur- sey, and his first mate is B, Kitney who is well known here. Prior to the war he was a member of the Provincial Police stationed at Bow- manville, He joined the R.CAF. and served overseas and on his re- turn a year ago joined the crew of the dredge and has stayed with it even since, 'The necessity for the work will be easily understood when it is realized that within the past week two lake boats have been unable to enter the harbor, One of them had to be towed off the sandbar and unload part of its cargo at Toronto before is could enter the port. MISSIONARY WORK TOPIC ON SUNDAY Rev. Thomas Buchanan De- scribes Work of Church In India One of the United Church mise sionaries amopg the Bhills in Cen. tral India, Rev, Thomas Buchanan was the guest speaker at the United Church on Sunday, at the WMS, special service, Mr, Buchanan told a Cc en's story concerning a brilliant young lad whom he found in the jungle and took him to the Mission School, where he is leading his class in every test. Then the congregation was told of the work our church is doing-- in healing, teaching and evangeli~ zation, as mighty work that has been going on for the last century and a half and ylelding a great harvest, The minister, Rev, Charles Mal- colm, was assisted in the service by Mrs, H, Crozier, the past president of the W.M.8, The choir sang "Wor= ship" by Shaw, and Mrs, Douglas Holliday sang as a solo, "Beside Still Waters". In the evening Thomas Shortt sang Champion's "Ninety and Nine", while the an- them was Beethoven's "Lo 'Tis Night". Eternal Demand Mr, Malcolm's theme was "The Demands of Religion", He said, "Religion has made its eternal une changing demand to do justly, love mercy and walk humbly with God + + » The whole world of thinking people is registering a tremendous demand for honest religion to save us from destroying ourselves with our new knowledge of God's unie verse, Modern scientists are calle ing to leaders of religion today, saying, "You believe in God! Take Him seriously and obey His eternal law of love and goodness, or you will perish, Your evil genius will destroy you if you do not destroy it with your Christian religion."

The principal changes are as follows: (1) Discount for prompt payment reduced from 20% to 10%. (2) Minimum charge for flat rate water users--$12.00 gross per annum or a minimum bi-monthly bill of $1.80 net. . (3) In cases where more than one customer is using water through one meter, the first 4000 gals. per month will be charged at the higher rate (20c net per M gals.) for each consumer and the remainder at 12c net per M. Even with these changes, our rates will be considerably lower than the average charged throughout the Province. These new rates will take effect commencing with August Billing.
