RECORD-BREAKING TOLL 121 Canadians Die Labor Day Weekend By THE CANADIAN PRESS ecidents took a grim, rec- ord-breaking toll of 121 lives in Canada during the three - day Labor Day weekend. The worst previous count on a Labor Day weekend was 102 last year. But the Labor Day record was still well below the worst three-day weekend in Ca-| nadian history when 172 persons died on the Dominion Day week- end this year. The weekend's worst single accident, a two-car crash at Vilna, Alta., killed seven per- sons in one car and one in the other early Sunday. A Canadian Press survey re- reported 12 accidental deaths each. There were ll on roads and one in the water in| Alberta, and five on the roads| and seven drownings in B.C. Newfoundland had two deaths in traffic, three drownings and a man crushed when a jack slipped while he was under a car. Nova Scotia had three road) |deaths, one drowning and one) veath from exposure. New Brunswick had a drowning and a traffic fatality, and Prince Ed- ward Island reported no fatal accidents during the weekend.

(Corner of Athol) 728-9441 7000 Attend Fall Fair At Port Perry y MRS. C. H. Reesor PORT PERRY -- Port Perry Fair presented by the Port Perry, Reach and Scugog Agri- cultural Society will again go successful fall fair in Ontario County. The fair again reached a re- cord high attendance when); around 7,000 passed through the fair ground gates on Labor Day to attend this outstanding an- nual event. The weather was perfect. The fair, always one of the most popular in South Central Ontario has been steadily grow- ing and improving for more than 100 years. The officers and); directors are to be commended for the fine arrangements of entertainment, harness races, horse show features and ex- hibits. One of the unique ex- hibits was the brown hassock made from tin cans. The midway provided fun for all ages. The Orono Band was on hand again this year to sup- ply fine musical selections and the program in front of the grandstand during intermissions was well received. A record number of exhibitors came to show their stock, farm produce and handicrafts. As usual the women's show of bak- ing, sewing, handicrafts, flow- ers, vegetables and grain ex- hibits were outstanding in high quality in these particular classes. The public school children of the surrounding area once again excelled themselves with their exhibits of handicrafts, writing, art work, vegetables, fruit and flowers. In fact the director for the. junior fair. Bill McMillan, stated that the judges classed the children's exhibits as ex- celling the adults showing both in quality and showmanship. There were approximately 72 classes for the children's com- petition. The men responsible for the fair were Dr. Donald Christie president; vice-president, Frank Ul oney and Mr. and Mrs. Fred who along with the directors and many willing volunteers have made this country fair one of the most looked for events in the county. Port Perry Fair is the larg- est regional showing of Holstein cattle in Canada. The Black and White Show has* grown larg- er every year and was as usual under the capable supervision of Gerald E. Nelson, of Port Perry: Beef cattle were represented hy Herefords, Shorthorns and Aberdeen Angus, Entries in all classes were up to expectations, Tempting exhibits of canning and baking were. outstanding, The ribbon for the best pie was down in history as the mostling Lamb, secretary and treasurer, i Whitby Street Really Bright Whitby's main business streets now are among the best lighted thoroughfares in any commun- ity in Ontario. Just recently, Whitby Public Utilities Commission erected 30 flourescent luminaires on exist- ornamental steel standards on Brock Street (Highway 12) and Dundas Street (Highway 2) the. main business streets of the town. These are very high out- put lamps in six foot fixtures. Y)There are two lamps in each fixture at present but these can be increased to four lamps. Each lamp has an output of 10,900 lumens, MORE LIGHT THAN MOON Providing street lighting that is 350 times as much light on road level directly under the luminaires, as from a full moon on a clear night, the new street lights are 370 watts including ballast. The luminaires are stag- gered every 50 feet and are ap- proximately 20 feet above road surface. This type of light eliminates dangerous shadows and a person is able to read a newspaper at night under these new street lights. Harry Simpson, Manager. of Whitby Public Utilities Com- mission pointed out that the il- luminaires has !mproved ter- mendously the lighting on the main business streets and the two intersecting highways. Chairman E. J, Bryant of Whitby Public Utilities Com- mission stated that the new lights will help to eliminate ac- cidents by making streets, ex-' pecially at the main intersection of the two highways, far bright- er at night than with the former 500 watt incandescent lamps. The president of Whitby Retail Merchants Association) Bob Catton, expressed the gratifica- tion of the store keepers regar- ding the effectiveness of the new main business section street lights. He stated that the assoc- iation had endeavoared for some time to have improved lighting installed on the principal bus-' iness thoroughfare and had met a number of times with the town council, until finally agreement had been reached to%improve the main business thoroughfare lighting. Mr, Catton stated that these new luminaires on Brock and Dundas streets were a real asset to the town and have re- sulted in many fine comments hy visitors to the community. "The downtown merchants are really d with the busi street lighting", he said. lumination at night from these CITY AND DISTRICT PARKED CAR HIT A truck driven by John Balas, Jr., of the Townline South, RR 4, Oshawa, collided with a park- ed car owned by Charles Dough- ty,, 225 Oshawa boulevard south, on Sunday at 11.35 p.m. The accident occurred approxi- mately 500 feet east of the CPR tracks on Bloor street east. There were no injuries but dam- ages to both vehicles amounted to $475.00. CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SUBJECT A Bible Lesson on "Christ Jesus" was read in all Chris- tian Science churches on Sun- day.
