BOWMANVILLE The O-haxva Ladies’ Musical Club meet this week and the program wi- be given entirely by Oshawa talent. iS-eyer'a-l of our town- -citizens arc patients in the Generali Hospital, Tor- onto, and we hear Mr. Charles Don- caster is a patient at a Private In- stitution at -Oshawa. 'Better get you-r radio tax ready, not because you think it i-s alright, but just because'they have the bulge on you. Either take it -or Heave it. Just the same it is too much by $1.50 for what, we get. Mrs. Dudley, who was formerly conductor of St. Paul’s Church -Choir, â- hag been appointed organist o-f this United Church and will begin duty on Sunday next. Miss Bragg, who has been, organist for some- time, past, and -given .great satisfaction, will: be assistant organist. Buwinanvil.es oldest -citizen passed away last week in the person of Mr. Jaimes Elliott, in bis 97 th year. He was -connected with the Hampton El- liott family, pioneers in business of the district for many years, and a resident of -this town for many years past, living in retirement on King -Street East. Mr. R. Lethbridge, whose death was announced last week and whose interment took place in the Union Oe-m't-ery at Port Hoip-e, as a. carpen- ter worked at - the building of St. Pauli’s Church in this town some 60 years ago. While in retirement for -some years past lié lived- with his daughter, Mrs. John ,Horne. We Hearn that the Hamilton Regi- mental Band of the 90th Highland- ers, under Capt. Stares, will -go to Glasgow this -summer to play -at the Canadian Show in that city. This will be a great trip for those musi- cians and no -doubt will give a good account of themselves and a credit to their native city. A hunk of meat and three quarts of milk was -wiped from the cook’s quarters of the parish hall at the B-oy â- Scout banquet last week. Perhaps the poor beggars needed it more than -those seated at the tables. The chan- ces are they enjoyed the feed and the milk more than those invited. You know -when you. wore in the kid age. We notice in an address given in town that the roller -process of mak- ing flour -is much better than the old tone grinding was, but do we have bread- today.to compare t-0 the old time home baked bread and buns of the" old process. We do not think so. Probably the roller is the best but the old grinding stones did a good job in its day and generation. Mrs. W. I!. Tops-on. had a narro-w escape from death on- Saturday even- ing last when crossing King street at Colters store corner, when she was struck lb,y a car and knocked down. -She was- badly bruised but no bones were broken. iS-he was carried into the store and a doctor sent for, and after reviving her she was taken home. It was certainly a close call. That part of the highway is known as a regular speedway for cars, going both east and west directions. We are pleased to note at the High- .adis Ball in Toronto the past week that the Header of the dance orches- tra was asked to play “Loch Lomond” but the manager of ceremonies would not allow it. -Ils there no musician with -enough -ability to compose music for that species of dance without in- fringing on -those old Scottish airs which to use in this manner is noth- ing short of sacrilege, but what do those nit-wits know about sacrilege A person who is saturated with 'swing music and whose highest am- bition is the “Big Apple”, so called latest dance, -should go back to the jungle-, tba home ,of montroseiti.es and fly-blown culture. The tax rate for this town is 44 and one half mills and was 47 mills .ast year, but, even at that it will be high enough, but we imagine our council is one that is going to just know where every dollar is going to be spent, and if not needed, cut out what we can do without until we have a surplus. The town is in the same line as an individual, live within your income. We still! notice there are a number of -dogs without a tag on their neck prowling around. Why thud ÃŽ. There is considerable talk in town about the King street boule- vards being taken up to make the street wider. Well the street -is too narro-w as it is and the work of tak- ing up the extra pavements- ' would make considerable difference and add greatly to the width, especially when one of those big trucks take up about one half when parked. The No. 2 Highway is getting tuu sma’l -for the traffic as1 it. is today and tomorrow it will be. m-o-rc -so. There should be an effort to have .that “Kurye-Inn” road -straightened out, a very -dangerous part of the highway -at the east and that western bridge which is a terror to motor cars and1 truck drivers be done -away with. How much more is -a long suffering public going to put up with tliat death trap. TyrrelFs Drug Store DRUGS STATIONERY KODAKS PHONE 68, ORONO SPRING CLEANING SUPPLIES JAVELLE WATER ... ....
