BOWMANVILLE It is rumored here that there is going to he a change in the Dustan hardware business, but we will await developments to see what there is in it. The several events advertised to take place at the Cream of Barley ..Park on Friday 1st were cancelled or put off for another day on account of the rain. The Orono brass quartette furnish- ed the music at Maple Grove Sunday School anniversary on the 22nd and we are pleased to mote this event was «"great success. The weekly Symphonic concerts conducted by ‘Reginald Stewart, in the Arena, Toronto, Thursday even- ings, will be beard on O.B.L. this week for the first time, and following weeks. Those interested will note tliis. We are promised a band concert this Sunday evening by the Légion Band on the square west of the Ohal- lis Garage, King St., but no word about a bandstand, hut if we are to have a band stand where is the best place to erect one? Will those inter- ested give ’their views on this matter in the press? Persons bringing peas into town by the truck load are very much both- ered: every year lately by children snatching bunches from the tracks and strewing the refuse on the streets. 'They are a muisance to the drivers â- >H8 they are in constant danger of be- ing run over in their endeavour to get a bunloh from the trucks. Many complaints have come to the Chief of Police. A number of our citizens here left for Sturgeon Lake and .other northern points the past week. Some are visit- ing in Toronto, Belleville arid other cities, others at the beach here and the majority are just sojourning in their own backyard, which is as a rule more restful probably than At- lantic City or any other high-toned show ground or watering place. It generally depends cm how you feel and the number of shekels you are en- dowed with. . Was there ever an age when there was nbt astrologers,soothsayers, ne- cromancers, mind readers, teacup readers', business future, love affairs and people who took in all such spasms as simon-pure and believed accordingly. Star gazers, crystal gazers, palm readers and witch of coders, are still among us and prob- ably will be until the end. Well, it makes for a little more variety in. the daily grind of life and puts a little more coin in circulation which is the best one can say for it. 18b far this summer bas been of the cool variety but it must be all right for farmers getting in their hay har- vest, and when conditions are right for agriculture, they are, as à rule, right “for everyone else, even if Oooa Cola and ginger dry drinks have, to take a. back seat for a spell or the ice inuii falls short on his dividends. People as a rule are beginning to un- derstand that our living comes first from the land and when the farmer is in a prosperous state all the other occupations. will follow in due time. Orono will have a busy week-end preparing for the big day, Tuesday next. We hope the weatherman will be on his'best behaviour on that occa- sion for on him depends the success of the day and a damp day is not the best for small or big drum perform- ances, and on that depends the main features of the 12th of July, espe- cially in the parade. Next to the great parade of lodges in Toronto this will be one of the greatest in this district. Now with motors distance does not count, for much, so come to Orono a.nd let, your cares about busi- ness be left at home. The 12tb of July will soon be here as we noticed by the Orange Fife arid Drum Band df this town who par- aded the streets of the town on their "nnuial rehearsal of 12th music for that, important day. We may ex- ocet another of the same this week, huit why not change the music? the sal no program year in and out gets monotonous and also the instrument- al ers take a copy from the Oshawa Finite Band. That is one institution that is a pleasure to listen to and we should have one of similar const,ruc- tion here. We have the material, why not use it, it would -be worth trying. Among all our cornerists in town we notice we have only one who we de- pend on for military functions such as described by Last Post and Re- veille. In our first Confederation days1, the late Albert Bounsall was the most: noted bugler in that line of duty, then came bugler Strudwick. one of the best in that line as he was of the old English school and had much experience in the army, both at home and abroad. After his time came others of very ordinary ability. The one we depend on today is that energetic tnusicanlan, Oaipt. Hutchi- son, of the Salvation, also a trombon- ist of no mean order. Dominion Day passed off very quietly in this burg, probably on ac- count of the wet, day, but even, that did not prevent the number of motor cars from passing to and fro and the wet, pavements were also the cause of many accidents, but one looks for carnalities, every week-end and it causes no surprise when it comes. The thoughtless driver and those who take chances are still with us, KENDAL Mr. Norman Thertell spent the week-end in Kendal. 'Mr. fm. Darlington is home to spend the summer with his mother. We were pleased to see Mr. and Mrs. Phillips down for a short visit, recently. A large number from Kendal took in the Orange service In Orono on Sunday evening. Mr. T. Turner, Crooked Greek, has been engaged as teacher for S, 8. No. 17, Clarke. Mr. and Mrs, George; Smith, of S-tarkville, visited with Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Glass on Sunday. Mr. Leonard Buckler, Newcastle, visited with Mr. and Mrs. John Pat- ton over the week-end. : Mrs, A. Jackson and Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Peacock attended the funeral of Mr. Honey, Milliken,. Mr. and Mrs. Milton Robinson at- tended their niece’s wedding in Tor- onto on Thursday last. Mr. Norm-an Thertell, Toronto, is spending Ms two weeks? holidays here with his wife and family. A number from Kendal attended the dance in Newtonville on Friday evening and reported a good time. Mr. Samuel Bryson has returned home from: Oshawa, accompanied by his daughter, Mrs. Trow and her lit- tle daughter. ' Mr. and Mrs. L. D. Bell and Clar- ence visited friends at Leskard on 'Sunday and attended the anniversary services in the evening. ----------,0---------- Subscribe to the Orono Weekly Times and probably will be until _ they are exterminated and by that time there will be another crop. 'Seventy-one years ago this town celebrated Con- federation Bay in a befitting manner by a great day of sports, the day was ushered in by a salute from the sol- diers of the 45th Battalion, which was headquarters for the corps here. The band was out and the day was one of sunshine and everyone was in a jolly m'ood, even if we had no paved, streets, no radios or motor pars. We had plenty to eat and drink, no un- employed and no relief problems, no sit-down strikes, no jazz or ghastly crooners, arid bathing suits- and “shorts” were to come. The swell guys parted their hair at the back and u#ed hair oil1 and wore crimped gaitors and loud checked! clothing, but even without all the modern in- vention of today the people of seven- ty-one years ago were jiust as full of fun, just as happy as are those of this age, probably more so. Victoria Garden Beauties Bring Joy to Thousands SHIRLEY TEMPLE:, darling of movie-going millions, sum- med lip world-wide opinion in a sentence when she said of the Empress Hotel gardens in Vic- toria, B.C.: “They’re beautiful. I’d love to stay here a whole year.” These and other choice gardens of the British Columbia capital will be thrown open to public view for a full week starting May 4 during the eight-day garden festival held annually by the • vful city. Garden week in Victoria has become an institution whose uni- queness attracts thousands of vis- itors to Vancouver Island every spring. The gardens at this time of the year are a glorious riot of bloom because in, that western city the favorable weather gives year-round golf and flowers which cannot be surpassed for size, variety and rich colorings. In addition an entertaining programme has been planned by the management of the Empress Hotel, sponsor of the event. There will be flower shows, talks on flowers by world famous hor- ticulturists, and many informal parties. The above pictures show Shir- ley Temple in a favorite spot in the Empress Hotel gardens dur- ing one of her recent visits; a visitor showing her son floral sculpture at its best; and a view of the famous ivy-covered Em- press Hotel itself.

N.- League hung up their second straight triumph of the current season on Tuesday night in Newtonville as they polished off the home brews to the tune of 26 to 14. From the first innings when they chalked up five counters Monk Growther’s gals were never headed. The most interesting feature of the game w.as seeing how many runs they could gather. Pounding out drives to all corners of the none too smooth field, the Red Sox continued their lambasting attack of the first, frame by gathering six tallies in the 2nd, four more in the 3rd-, half a dozen more in. the 4th, three in the 5th and two single markers in the 6th and 7th to add insult to injury. While the Crow: her lassies were emulating the feats of the Yankees’ Murderous Row, Kiarl Walkey’s1 girls were, as putty in thé hands of Jean Bona,than, Newloastle’-s stellar right hander, claiming eight, batters via the strikeout, route, the pretty brunette was never in much trouble as she made her first, start, in league compe- tition chi® year, a winning one. The Easterners mustered together two runs in, the 2nd, three in the 5th, and a total of nine ini the last two Stanzas, making a, -gallant bid to over- come the tremendous lead. The Newcastle team- have now played each of the other teams in, the league, turning back both by decisive miargin-s. If the Red -Sox can straighten out, a few faults they have encountered, and continue to play the same type of ball as they now are playing, we see no reason why they shouldn't bring their 2nd- straight championship to Newcastle. Well fortified in all departs, -a, slugging re- ceiver, a dependable 2-man pitching corps, a smooth combining infield, and' a trio of trusty hard hitting outer gardeners, Newcastle has one team to be proud- of. They play at home this Friday night so how about bringing the whole family out and root the girls on to greater heights. Line-ujps : Newcastle Tâ€" N.VanDusen, cf ; E. 1 lendry, ss; E.
