Bowmanvil1l! High School Rugby team and now mentor of the Peterboro Collegiate squad, was the astute factor in roiling up the one-sided score of 21 to 1, when his huskies took BHS in COSSA rugby at Peterboro, Saturday. Bowmanville boys were out- weighed in both brawn and stra- tegy. It is reported that the "Pete's" coach advised: "Get Mc- Ilveen, Strike, Cattran, Dadson, and other key men and it's in the bag." The local boys were consider- ably off color after their social evening at Club 15 dance, Fni- day evening, but gave a good ac- count of themselves against the hefty beef they went up against. They did well in the early stages o! the game but tuckered in the final stanzas. The summary: Petes led 5-0 in the first quarter a'nd led 6-1 at bal! time. They were in front. 11-1 going into the last quarter and mauled onward to tie final score with passes, plunges and general mayhem. Bowmanville bobbled in the lst quarter. An end run nicked them for a touch. Mcllveen then engineered 2 forwards and boot- ed for Bowmanville's only point. From then on there wasn't mucli to it. Simpkin intercepted a for- ward but was smothered. The Petes went on the prowl and simply couldn't be stopped. Bow- manville, pressed behind their posts, tried a kick. It was block- ed for another Pete touch. And 50 it went. The result puts the locals out o! the current running but they play a final gamne in Oshawa, No- vember 10. For the record, these are the players, 1945. Flying wing, Bowles; halves, Mcllveen, DeGeer, Hooper; quar- ter, Dadson; snap, Strike; insideS, Frank, Tighe; middles, Cattran, Pollard; outsides, Martin, Cowle; alternates, Passant, Craig, Boe, Simpkin. p 4/ FIRST CANADIAN VISIT: The first presi- comed by civie and government officiais.

Strange Things Happen In Realm of Nature If nature emulated tbe unreas- oning, stubborn, ill-humored, sel- !ish course o! many specimens o! the genus "~homo sapiens" midi- vidual or organized, the sad old world might quickly starve to death. But nature bas a way o! doing things, consîstently, strenu- ously and very often quite spec- tacularly. Nature neyer goes on strike. For instance, when Milton Stainton, Ennîskillen, called on the editor, Tuesday, he told o! digging up a carrot this faîl that measured 5 inches long with a stem 38 inches la lengtb. His attention was later drawn to a hen appearing from the grass in the plot behind the bara, proudly followed by a brood o! 7 chickens. They were lookîng for shelter from the frosty fal niglits. He was amazed to find that this feathered inatron was a 6 month spring pullet lie bad bought as a day-old chic from Harvey Brooks last sprifig. It was a Plymouth Rock. So were its chicks. Now safely under cov- er, mother and !amily are thriv- ing. Just another instance o! how things are dune in Durbam County. peir#~#"ebr 0~t&vr~ BUT BONDS Simple Truths For Labor Unions And Employees To Consider (Tweed News) Maurice R. Frank, National Business Agent o! the Railroad Yardmasters Union o! North America, bas been telling some plain truths about business to bis fellow business agents and labor leaders. He states that too few o! tbem have any ide& how busi- ness is operated and for what it actually is operated. "The main reason for operation is to pro- duce a commodity or a service for PROFIT," he says. "The pro- fit motive does not necessarily mean that all employers are void o! humanitarian instincts. Many able employers daity are demon- strating that they are interested in the welfare o! the workers and the general public, but in order to exercise civic humanism, a businessman must have what it takes, and that is money. There is only one place he can secure thîs and that is from profitable operation of his business. The union business agent who does not recognize this fact is heading, his constituency for chaos." Mr. Frank says that no sane person is going to invest money in any enterprise where there is no reasonable chance o! a profit. "If you doubt that statement," lie continues, "just examine the pre- sent investments of some of our the wise heads o! tbese unions bave invested the union funds, or a great portion of them, in enter- prises that assure profit. To as- sure profit, unions, the partners o! industry, should at ail times operate in lime with good acu- men, based on equity to ail par- ties affected. You cannot take in- centive and profit out o! business and still have business. You can- not preach hate and expect any- thing but hateful conditions." Mr. Frank concludes: "We must not lose sight o! the fact tbat what hurts business, hurts labor, and vice versa. We can weil re- member, too, that wbat burts the customer and the general public, eventually reflects itseif upon the partners o! industry. These sim- ple facts should be explained to those, who do not understand them by tbose who have learned what it is that makes business "tick" in the United States. I know o! no one in a better po- sition to explain these truths to labor union members than the union business agents, because that distinctly is part o! the BUSINESS 0F THE BUSINESS AGENT."

A goodly representa- tion o! the section were on hand and had an enjoyable evening. About forty pupils and ex-pupils were in costume and much taste and originality had been display- ed in the choice and arrangement of the samne. After tbe president had called the parade to start with Mrs. Otto Bragg at the piano the fol- lowing judges were called to the front. Miss Bennett, Mrs. Austin Wood and Mrs. Norman Rickard. Prizes for best costumed girls went to Anna Husack as Mother Goose; Richard VanZant as Gyp- sy Girl; Ruth Bragg as Bo Peep. For boys' costume the awards went to Beverley Osborne as a clown; Keith Lamb as a Chinese; Earl Brown as a wise man. Best costumed lady, Joyce Bragg; best costumed man, Helen Allun as gentleman; best couple# gentle- man, Helen Allin; lady, Anne Cryderman. Another large class appeared in the group under Hallowe'en costume witb witches, ghosts, girls, etc. In this class the most stooped sbouldered witch most characteristic in pose and manner was Tina Husack, wbile a pump- kin colored costume gained Wil- helmina Walker the gecond prize. F'or comic costume as à cute little :ramp with stick and bundle lit- tlé Mary Husack was awarded the prize. After unmasking and presenta- tion o! prizes the president called upon Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Cryderman to conduct somne games and contests. Later the committee in charge served an abundant lunch of sandwiches, doughnuts and cook- ies with coffee. The president expressed thanks 1on beh.alf of H. and S. Club to ail 1who had helped. Special men- ition was made of the co-operation of pupils and their teacher, Miss sThompson for their contribution rof lovely, appropriate and taste- 7ful decorations.

The first full-plane sbipment of mail-order merchandise was re- cently sent from Chicago to Los Angeles. We trust that they'll stick to the old-fashioned meth- od of delivering those weighty catalogues by mail rather than toss tbem out of a delivery plane. JIIsT IN M411,Trii FUtMES orna POLICE REPORT BAD ACCIDENT AT BRIDGE WEST 0F TOWN Chie! of Police Sidn~ey Venton and Provincial Traffic Off icer, Gordon Broughton received a burry-up caîl Saturday forenoon to the overhead bridge at the west entrance to Bowmanville. This "traffic-snare" is well known to the many motorists that travel Highway No. 2. Repeatedly there have been costly accidents at this point, despite the overhead ligbt and checker-board sign. It is considered the most dangerous curve between Toronto and Mon- treal. When the police arrived tbey found Staff-Sgt. J. Hunt, RCAF, at the bottom of the 25 ft. em- bankment, having cr as he d through the retaining fence after negotiating the dangerous bridge. Sgt Hunt was proceeding to his headquaflters, Ottawa, and bad full cognizance of the signs at the bridge. But at the eastern slope, as is so often the case, the planks were so slippery, lie lost control of the car and plunged over the embankment. Fortunately he was not hurt but his vehicle was .greatly dam- aged. There was no report as to whether the bridge was sanded prior to the accident. Police warn that at this time o! the year of ramn and frost, motorists should approach this crossing with great ,care. Other police news is that Chief Venton and Constable Brougliton will again appear at the Toronto hearing Friday, in the case of the bandits accused of robbing the Leaside bank. The alleged cul- prits were captured by these local officers at Curve-Inn a few weeks ago. In this capture Chie! Ven- ton narrowly escaped being shot by a machine gun in the hands of these desperadoes. Your moat valuable possession le the ability to earn a living.
