SCHOOLS WILL OPEN TUESDAY Ontario Dept. of Health States Present Conditions Do Not Warrant Ciosing Schools There bas been some uncertainty about opening the local schools next week owing to the epidemic of in- fantile paralysis in tbe community. The disease appears to have been checked as no new cases bave been reported and patients under treat- ment are making satisfactory pro- gress. However, to, make certain as to opening the school Dr. W. H. Birks, M.0. H., wrote to Dr. W. J. Bell, Deputy Minister o! Health for On- tario, and received this reply: "lDear Sir :-I have con! erred with the members o! our epidemiologicai staff on your communication of Aug- ust 2lst regarding the closing of schools in your mumicipality. It is the f eeling of this staff that the condition in Bowmanvflle at the present time does flot warrant the closing of the schools. Wbile we f eel tbat people should be careful to avoid contact as mucb as possible, we are f the opinion that the lowerin of public morale and the raýising of public alarm, that would be created by closing the scbools, is not justitled by present conditions."

BROOKDALE NURSERIES WIN FIRST PRIZE AT C. N. E. Display of Natural Landscape Scenery Features the "Brook in the Dale"-Designed by M. L. Hancock This year the Brookdale Nurseries o! Bowmanville for the first time in their career entered an exhibit at the Canadian National Exhibition at To- ronto. The result was more than satisf actory. First prize was award- ed tbem in the Natunal Decorative Display class in keen competition o! the best nurseies in Ontario. This is quite an accomplishment, because they were competing against nurser- ies of old standing, including Endean Nurseries of Richmond Hill, Herb. Waters, Sheridan Nurseries, and Miller & Sons, all of Toronto. Per- sons visiting the Exhibition should make a special effort to see this ex- quisite exhibit in the Flower Build- ing, just inside the north centre door. M. L. Hancock formerly of Bow- manville and now o! Port Credit, wbo is still associated wltb the Landscape Department o! this flrm, is respons- ible for the designing o! this unique display. Mucb originality was shown and energy expended to have every detail so fascinatlng and at- tractive. The scene ia very appropniate, "A Brook la a Dale", (Brookdale). A purely natural scene la produced, not wild, but just what might bappen la one o! Nature's beauty spota. It represents wooded slopes and a par- tially open dale witb a brook rippling tbrougb, starting f!rom a amaîl water- f all on the hilîside. Plants are mass- ed in the background and on the sides. The front is open, giving a view o! the stream and the waterf ail. Every effort is made to bave it as realistic and true to, nature as pas- sible. Beneath the waterf ail and along the outer edge of the scene are wvell chosen weathered rocks partially covered witb rnoss. The waterfall flows down into a coniparatively large pool. partly sbaded witb droop- ing hemlocks. Leaving the pool the crystal water tnickles througb the centre o! the picture. hidden for a moment by a group o! sbrubs in tbe foreground. flows on and finally fades into the undergrowth at the extrenie night o! the picture.* The background is made up o! common cedar, !ormlag the woods beyond, continuing the le!t flank. Shrubs are planted in groupa around tbe waterfail. At the le! t there is a group o! Scotch, Austnian and Mugho pines. Carrying out the e!- f eet of the pines there la a grc'up of Norway, White, and blue Colorado spruce trees on the right flank o! the picture. Slopes of green grass edge the back o! the stream and most o! tbe foreground. but in the centre there. is another group o! evergneens. Spotted bere and there with Juni- pers the scene la complete. One be- gins to dream beautiful tboughts and can easily imagine that there la a blue sky above, quietness an around except for a cbirp froni a bird or the scanipering o! a chipmunk: or aquir- nel. It reaily is bard to break away f rom sucb an ailuring scene, but usually witb a crowd o! admirers around some other dreamer steps on your toe and your drearns drop to earth again. Brookdale Nurseries is a distinct asset to Bowmanville and was pur- cbased by H. P. Eckardt o! Toronto in 1922. The property is near the C N. R. station and was the fanai formerly owned by Geo. H. BlckeL The area taken in by the nurseries 3exceeds 110 acres. the greater part being under cultivation o! nursery stock. This fin bhas eacb year enjoy- ed a steady increase la business. Duning the busy season they employ over 30 men and the yearly wages paid out exceeds $10.000. E. J. Wood is the capable manager o! the Nurseries. Much o! the success o! this compaay may be attributed to bis executive ability. Bnookdale Nurseries have proven theniselves very aggressive and have certainly given Bowmanviile funther desirable publicity by their exhibit at the C. N. E. We wisb tbem contin- ued success and convey to theni aur citizens most sincere congratulations in this their latest triumph. LOCAL AND OTHERWISE Mrs. Qeo.
