Bering Sea 'Quake' Felt In Honolulu Honolulu, May 15 -- (AP) -- A major earthquake apparently on the floor of the Bering Sea sent tidal wave alerts flying through the Aleutians and Hawaii Friday, but no high waves appeared. Before the alerts were called off some Hawaiians had fled to the hills. Freighters, fishing sampans and other small craft in the Port of Hilo put to sea. Trucks and heavy cranes were moved to high ground, The memory was still fresh of the tidal wave disaster of 1946 which caused 175 deaths in the Hawaiian Islands from an Aleutian earth shock. No one was taking any chances. Engagements Mr. and Mrs. Wm. F, P.

Musical Mayhem An aggregation of musical 'nuts' who were called "The Funny Men" on the program just about col- lapsed the 94-year-old town hall last night when the applause was so dense the walls shook. They appeared as an added attraction at the Kinsmen Boys' Band con. cert. This quintette of slap-happy hillbillies had never played to- gether as a unit before but that was all to the good. Combining a generous dose of Dog Patch corn with a garnishing of Spike Jones' technique, they warmed up as they || went along. Ever before they got singing - "Baby Face" "Four Leaf Clover" like demented hill- the audience was choking with laughter, . Perpetrators of the unmusical outrage were Stan Martin playing a one-man band outfit and well concealed behind a handlebar Don Bell playing a piano accompaniment; deadpan Ernie Stafford kept busy under his 10-gallon Stetson strum- ming his guitar (with accent on the first syllable); Harry Brock singing the s0-calied 'lyrics' and ! plucking his banjo, and Louis Rousseau scraping out the "melody" on the fiddle. Sure it was good! Salvation Army Chairman Commends Appeal Ont., 1948. Whitby, May ' 15, Editor, Times-Gazette, Whitby, Ont. Dear Sir: There is no other religious or charitable body which enjoys so much general goodwill, as the Sal- | vation Army and to me the most outstanding reason for this is its charitable work. It is a tremendous force for good in whatever part of the world it is permitted to operate. For this reason it is now one of the most respected, religious organizations on earth, It is difficult for one to understand that the Army has in the past half century changed from ridicule, aversion and suspi- cion to one of respect, toleration and appeal. One of the concrete examples of the good the Salvation Army has done can be obtained from prac- tically any service man of either of the world wars and without ex- ception you will find him loud in his praise of their thoughtfulness, helpfulness and spiritual advice, The Salvation Army is made up largely of people to whom the or- thodox churches could never appeal, The Army's great appeal is to the poor, the wayward, the friendless. Unfortunately these classes are quite a large percentage of ,our population, 'who, if it were not for the Salvation Army would have to be taken care of in our gaols, re- formatories and asylums, This would add greatly to our gov- ernment expenses and would have to. be paid for in some form of taxes, The Army in lifting these people up in a spiritual way have done a great good, and have not only made this world a better place to live in for themselves but for every other person as well. If for no other reason than this last mentioned I strongly appeal to the generosity of our good people of Whitby to donate freely and generously in this great drive for funds in the annual Red Shield Appeal, Yours sincerely, Joseph E.
