It is very cen- trally trally located with the latest improved concrete highways reaching out in vari directions making it very 'accessible. It is about | sixty miles by motor road from New York City, about the same distance hy Atlantic City and Philadelphia. Not far away is readily be seen that such a place so strategically located would at- track large numbers of holiday visitors. Ocean Grove dates back about sixty years, for about that time a few minister of the Methodist Episcopel Church, New York City, seeking a quiet restful place to holiday, pitched their tents along the coast of the Atlantic and having enjoyed the kind of | "holiday for which they sought decided they would return the fol- lowing year. When the next holiday season came they had per- suaded a few more ministers and also a few laymen to join them and thus quite a colony of folk enjoyed a holiday season. During that summer it was decided to secure an option on several acres of land which might be used by those who would enjoy a holiday under religious auspices. As a result of this, an area of approximately one mile in length along the ocean and about one half mile in depth was purchased and held for the above pur- pose. A committee of ministers and laymen was formed who held Yhe land in trust for such purpose and during the years it has been so held. Ocean Grove is a thriving American town with a permanent population of about three thousand people with a summer popu- lation of some twenty thousand, largely augmented each week end making a possible thirty thousand people there at such times. For building purposes 'a lease of ninety nine years duration is granted, but no foot of land has been sold and the original deed still stands. The police and fire administration, as well as all civic administration is in the hands of a commission which administers the property. The town is probably unique in the fact that it has no mayor nor aldermen, hence the many petty issues which con- tinually arise in municipal politics have to be settled in other ways than in the annual election. The most unique thing about Ocean Grove is Sunday. It is a great day from the standpoint of religious services, for services are held nearly every hour in the day from 7 a.m. until 7.30 p.m. During this time there are services for children, for young people, regular preaching services, Sunday School, pavilion services, ete. The main building for religious service is a huge auditorium which accommodates 10,000 people. This is fitted with amplifiers so that in every part of the great building the speaker is easily heard. It is equipped with a great pipe organ, said to be the largest in the world. The Sunday the writer was privileged to spend there, there were approximately seven thousand people in attendance at the morning service, while fully five thousand were present in the evening. A choir of one hundred and ten voices led the singing. Each Sunday some outstanding preacher of national or interna- tional repute leads the thoughts of the people God-ward. Not only is Ocean Grove unique from the standpoint of many well attended services on Sunday but also that no honk of an auto horn is heard throughout the place on Sunday. Saturday night finds all cars stealing away from the streets of the town so that on Sun- day only the doctors, undertakers and the fire department are privileged to drive their cars about the place. All people meet on a common plane for all are pedestrians for a least one day in seven there. A very quiet, restful Sabbath is the result and many people are attracted because they like to get away from the rush, the roar, the rattle of traffic and enjoy a haven where the harmony of nature's music is not destroyed by the strident notes of auto horns. All amusement places are closed on Sunday, the bathing beach is also out of bounds,and bathing beauties must go to other resorts to disport themselves upon the sands of the Atlantic. Ocean Grove offers to the traveller, indeed a place unique, and while some regulations may seem a survival of the blue laws of the Puritans, yet the fact remains that thousands of people are at- tracted there each season. There they enjoy the salubrious breezes off the broad expanse of the Atlantic, during the week every legitimate sport and pleasure may be found, but on Sunday the tired and jagged nerves may be rested and a day of almost absolute quiet is provided with every facility for worship or rest. At least one such place in America in this sophisticated pleasure- mad age is possible. . . "Accommodation for Tourists" By Molly Bevan, in "The Blue Bell." Whenever these three words I see as I go journeying forth I think-of how I saw them on a highway in the North. After a long day's driving, that crudely painted sign Was Gilead's balm to travellers who ached to rest and dine. ' The farmhouse looked inviting, fresh-painted white and green, With little gables peering through the ivy's emerald screen; Inviting, too, the cosy rooms beneath the gables' shade, The waiting supper table in a sunny window laid. . Our meal despatched we sought .the porch and there, her dishes done, The farmer's wife came out to watch, with us, the setting sun. She asked what parts we hailed from and whither we were bound, 'She told us merry anecdotes of all the country 'round; She'd "taken guests" she told us, since the new road passed their home, ith its white shining concrete luring auto-ed folk to roam. Hard work? Well, yes, But company; she liked all stranger faces With other ways and tales to tell of unknown far-off places. I looked across the rolling fields, gold-lit by sunset haze, And thought how desolate they'd be on stormy winter days. I asked her how she spent the hours when tourist traffic stopped And winter, o'er the questing roads, his grim embargo dropped. "Well, now" she said, and smilingly she smoothed an apron fold, "We find a-plenty here to do just keepin' out the cold! And though there ain't much outdoor work the time don't go so slow Since our boy Tom, one Christmas, sent us a radio. P It seems to bring the world in close; we listen every night To songs and talks and music, by cheery firelight.

Thus it may Joseph Wilson, owner of truck, in serious condition Mrs. John Gleason of 2341 Yonge Street, Toronto, mother of Dr. H. J. Gleason, of Lindsay, died on the way to Port Perry Hospital on Wednesday of last week as the result of injuries she received in an automobile accident near Myrtle, on the Whitby-Lindsay Highway at 11.30 p.m. last night. Mrs. Gleason was on her way to Lindsay in a car driven by her son, Dr. Gleason at the time of the accident. It was learned that the car came into violent collision with a truck owned and driven by Joseph Wilson, of Ep- som. Wilson was driving north on the highway, when he experienced tire trouble. of the road he commenced to make Drawing off to the right side | repairs. While he was engaged at this work the Gleason car approaching from the south collided with the truck. The Gleason car was badly wrecked in the crash, not a pane of glass being intact. Mrs. Gleason was severely in-' jured and died on the way to the hos- | pital. Miss Dean, a relative of the Gleason family and a passenger in the A spggk from the blower of the threshing engine igniting the straw, stack, is thought to have been the cause of a disastrous fire, which oc- cured on the farm of W. Fish, Sonya, on Wednesday afternoon. The barn, was burned down and a whole season's crop destroyed, while a heavy loss also sustained in livestock. | Fish, who came to Canada from England less than a year ago, had been threshing with his own outfit, When the spark flew from the blower barn, 8 and with the aid of a high wind Parliament Assembles at Ottawa Canada's Seventeenth Parliament set to work today to remedy the eco- nomic ills which afflict the Dominion. The opening ceremonies were attended with the customery pomp and pag- eantry. But after the echoes of the booming guns had died away and Dame Fashion had departed from Parliament Hill, one or two features stood out from all the rest. His Excellency the Governor -Gen- eral delivered the speech from the Throne which was very brief. The Prime Minister announced that he would remain at his post in Ottawa until the business for which Parlia- ment has been summoned has been completed, and that if he is unable to attend the Imperial Conference the Opposition must assume the responsi- bility. The Leader of his Majesty's Opposi- tion immediately took notice of this ultimatum and stated that so far as the Liberals are concenred, they are anxious to co-operate in expediting the work of the special session, but before they are ready to proceed with the nation's business they must have information with regard to vital matters affecting the people of Can- ada. The only business transacted at the morning session was the election of the new Speaker, Hon. George Black, Conservative member for the Yukon. Mr. W. H. Moore, Member elect for Ontario, was among the new faces in parliament. T. K. Creighton is new Magistrate of Oshawa On Monday morning Thomas K.

Dr. Gleason as far as could be ascertained escaped serious injury, but is confined to bed suffering from shock. Joseph Wilson, | the driver of the truck, who was re- pairing the tire suffered two broken legs and a broken arm. He was also badly lacerated about the head and was removed to St. Michael's hospital, Toronto, in serious condition. The truck, which Wilson was driv- ing, was thrown into the ditch and the cattle which were in the truck were thrown out. Dr. J. A. Mathers of Port Perry, held an inquest. Mrs. Gleason was on her way to Lindsay to visit her son at the time of the accident. Mrs. Dr. Gleason, it was learned, is in poor health and Mrs. Gleason was on her way to assist in the Gleason home while her son's wife went to Toronto for treatment. Dr. Gleason is a well liked young surgeon of Lindsay, having occupied the position of President of the Medi- cal Association of Victoria County last year. We understand that Mr. Wilsons condition was somewhat improved on , Wednesday. Bam aad Crop Destroyed b Fir ire near Sonya the building was in flames almost im- mediately. It was impossible for any one to ' enter the barn, and six horses, sixty pigs, and seven calves were destroyed while the season's crop is also a total loss. Through the efforts of neighbours, the fire was prevented from spreading to the house, although, all the furni- ture was removed as a precautionary measure. The loss is estimated well over $10,- 000, partially covered by insurance. The farm was formerly owned by a Mr. Harrison of Sonya stallation, Judge Ruddy congratulated Mr. Creighton on his appointment and hoped he would find the work congen- ial. On behalf of the Crown, J. A. McGibbon, Crown Attorney for the district, tendered his congratulations. Mr. Creighton replied fittingly, thank- ing Judge Ruddy and Crown Attorney McGibbon, for the feeling manner in which they had spoken of him. Mr. Creighton asserted that he would do all in his power to work in harmony with those with whom he came in con- tact in the course of his official duties. a. -- a 4 SCUGOG Services at the Head Church next Sunday at 10.30 a.m. Foot Church at 10.30 a.m., Centre Church at 7.30 p.m. and Indian Church at 10.45.
