Guelph, Ontario. Sm ------ I TA Rn, OUR BABY CITY. Oshawa 4vas made a city on Saturday, March 8, 1924, and the Oshawa Reformer pays this tribute to the pioneers: Oshawa has been a Post Office and an organized municipality for 82 years. Away back in 1842 a few people living in the little cluster of houses, then kmown as Skea's Corners peti- tioned the Government for a Post Office. After much consid- eration and heart searching the name of "Oshawa' was suggest- ed by an Indian Chief, the name meaning "The Crossing of a Stream." From those few peos ple in 1842 Oshawa has grown to a City of over 15,000 souls. These early settlers were like all those which made Ontario the greatest and wealthiest Province in the Dominion. In some cases settlers were men and women of United Empire Loyaligts stock--staunch Brit- ishers who refused to remain in a land which had severed its connection with the old Mother Country.

Arriving at Quebec or Montreal these set- tlers made their way up the St. Lawrence in rafts or bateaux, and then along the shores of Lake Ontario until some par- ticularly inviting spot attracted their attention, or possibly they arrived at a settlement where friends had already located. Then a landing was made and the great task of building a home in the virgin forest com- menced. What these pioneers did for their children and for the nation has never been properly ap- praised. They laid the founda- tion structure of our social, po- | litical, economic, industrial, re- ligious and educational system. They found a country clothed with a virgin forest, inhabited with hostile tribes and infested by wild animals. They toiled early and late for their aren In retrospect we see them in their task of home making. We visualize the little log cabin ris- ing amid the towering trees of the forest. We see the
