Since that time, the Government has presented five annual financial statements, known as the Public Acocunts, The total amount spent by the Govern- ment on Ordinary Account; as shown by those five statements, is $277,812,- 884.50, This is the cost of carrying on the affairs of the Province and was paid out of taxes levied from the peo- ple of the Province. This means $81 for each person in Ontario or taking the average family of four, a con- tribution of $324 from each family in "taxes for carrying on the Provincial business. This entitles us te ask the question, Has the Henry Government made you rich? But this not all. - The same five "statements show that the Government has spent on Capital Expenditure, the "sum of $128,120,236.69. This has been © added to the debt of "the Province ~~" which 'now stands at $692,000,000.00 or as large a debt as was owed by the 'whole Dominion of Canada in 1014, This. increase in debt has to be paid . by us and those who come after us. The debt now stands as a charge of $170.00 for each person in Ontario or taking the average family of four, a debt of $680.00 against each family in = the Province. This entitles us to ask the question, Has the Henry, overt ment made youn rich? » During the ten year period since the present Government took office, there have been deficits totalling in all, $13,697,363.61.

CARTWRIGHT CENTENARY June 16, 17 and 18, will be red- letter days in the history of Cart- wright Township, for at.that time the citizens and former residents will cele- brate the settlement of the township by the following program: Saturday, June 16th--music by Port Perry Band, complete programme of sports, including Girls' Softball Tour- nament; Children's parade; and the unveiling of the cairn which has been erected to commemorate the occas- sion. The unveiling will be done by Mr. Hall, grandson of the the first settler. Qther speakers will be: His Honour Dr. Herbert Bruce, Lieut.- Governor of Ontario, Mr. W, Nesbitt, Mr. W. J. Bragg, Mr. F. W. Bowen, and a number of former ministers of the various churches. The members of the Wonten's Institute will serve meals in the Armouries.

"The following - historic outline is taken from the Bowmanville States- man: "To commemorate the lives of those hardy pioneers who one hundred years ago hewed their way through the vir- gin forest of Cartwright Township and there from the wilderness carved for themselves the homes which 'are today prosperous farms. Cattwright Township will do honour on June 16th, 17th and 18th. A cairn will be un- veiled to their memory and Cartwright people from all over Ontario will re- turn to their native heath to join in the celebrations. Back in 1816 and 1817 Mr. Wilmot, probably the Wilmots of Newcastle, was commissioned to survey the town- ship, then forest and marshland and It took two complete summers for the sur- veyor to penetrate the dense woodland and lay the township out in 200 acre lots. Wolves, bears and other wild 'animals roamed through the woods and one can imagine that Mr, Wilmot faced constant danger as he carried out his allotted. task. It was not until 1833 that George Hall, whose family had 'settled in Cavan Township, treked west through Manvers Township to explore the new |" township of Cartwright. After sur- veying the territory he settled on Lot 23, Concession b, straight east of Blackstock, one mile west of the Manvers-Cartwright Town Line, and 'of 'the farm now occupied by Mervin Mountjoy. Here George Hall made a a small clearing in the forest and erected a log cabin, the residence of Soon after others came to take up land in the section and soon quite a little | settlement grew up and a prosperous farming community was established. A grandson of Geo. Hall, William Hall, of Lindsay, will unveil the cairn. Some years later these early set- tlers met to discuss the future of their | township and' in honour of Hon, Richard Cartwright of Kingston, a member of the Legislative Council prior to his death in '1815, the town- ship was named after him. In January 1837 the Township Council met at the home of Alexander Muirhead, and their was made the first record of municipal affairs of . the township. Just who were members of the first township council, and where the inatgural meeting was held, is not now, known, and the following is the written report, still extant, of the meeting on January 2nd, 1837.

E, brought the noted speaker--Rabbi Eisendrath--to Port Perry; and gave the people of this community the op- portunity to hear his lecture--*"What I Saw in Germany." Those who attended the lecture in the United Church on Wednesday evening, May 30th, were afforded a rare intellectual treat. Rabbi Mau- rice N. Eisendrath, of Holy Blossom Synagogue, Toronto, a most fluent orator of magnetic personality, who has gained a large following on the air by his radio addresses, spoke on "What I Saw in Germany", giving authentic information on a subject of world-wide concern. Rev. T. A. Nind acted as chairman, in the enforced-absence of Rev. Mr. Smyth. Mr, 8S. Jeffrey, representing the Church Official Board, extended to the distinguished lecturer a cordial welcome to Port Perry, and to the United Church. A short musical pro- gram preceded the address. Miss Helen Mellow gave an organ solo, Johnson's "Midsummer Caprice", Mr. Charles Heartfield sang "O Dry Those Tears" by Del Rugo, and Mr. V. P. Stouffer, played the violin solo, "Berceuse" from "Jocelyn", by God- dard. : Then Rabbi Eisendrath gave his ar- resting account of conditions in Ger- many, as seen during his recent visit to that country. Before entering Germany, he passed through England, = There, Hi said, the very atmosphere seemed surcharged with righteous indignation and moral resentment, at the consciousness that across the channel horrible acts of Mediaeval savagery were being per- | petrated against a people whose only, offence lay in being of Jewish blood. Rabbi Eisendrath was strongly ad- vised not to attempt to enter Ger- many: even a prominent member of the British House of Lords warned the party against proceeding; but he was determined to get possession of the facts. On entering Germany all seemed in order. Only the most perfunctory of examinations was made at the border," and the party reached Berlin without any untoward happenings, the: capital all scemed peaceful and quiet,--but eerily and-creepily quiet. Flags, with their huge black swastika crosses, were verywhere hanging from windows, flown from housetops, even displayed on vehicles. Soldier 9; soldiers everywhere; in every colour of uni- form; the Black Shirts of Hitler's | Guard, the Brown Shirts of the Sturm Abteilung, or Nazi Storm ments, the Green Shirts of the Stahlhelm, and the blue- coated police. Berlin might be summed up in three words--stillness, banners, uniforms. A superficial examination of conditions would lead one to believe that "all Even in Detach-! | pelted to tead textbooks depicting them as an inferior people and a para- sitic race, called to the front of the class to act as a target of scorn for their Nordi¢ schoolmates. And these indignities and inhumanities are heap- ed on a race that, while comprising only 1 per cent. of the population, gave 12,000 of its sons to spill their blood for their Fatherland. Not only is physical violence offered the Jews, but the Nazis admit they are trying to accomplish the humane annihilation of this race by economic boycott, by cut- ting from under their feet their entire financial footing, Where will this orgy of hate end? It began over the Jewish question, but: now the Nazis have discovered that the Jew alone does not possess the ideals they are trying to stamp out. And so Christianity to-day hangs in the balance in Germany. It was said some time ago by those who studied the situation, that if the Nazis got possession of the German Church and converted it into a mere tool of theirs, Protestantism in Germany and even elsewhere on the continent was doomed. The Nazis have possession of the Church now, though there is i just the chance that they cannot hold it. So, in Germany, once more Mars is on horseback, once more ploughshares arg beaten into spears, and pruning- hooks into swords. * Der Tag is.com- ing. The spirit of conquest is in the air. Germans living abroad are ad- monished to be, not apostles of hu- manity, but bearers of the Nordie ideal. In Hitler's biography the fol- lowing statement occurs, "In eternal peace mankind is ruined, in etdrnal warfare mankind is glorified." Ig it any wonder nations are "increasing frontier guards? And Nazi influence has spread, like a virus, to this con- tinent. United States has had to or- der an official investigation intd Nazi activities within her borders. In our Western provinces newspapers: are published, some in German, lauding Nazi ideals. Therefore it behooves us all to ex- ercise eternal vigilance against the in- sinuations of foreign and alien ideals into Canadian community life. We should bring to bear every non-violent honourable sanction, as devised by an international code of ethics, in order that the twenty million German people who voted disapproval of Ilitler in , March, 1933, may once more live in peace, security and liberity in their beloved Fatherland. Suppressed, stifled, coerced, they can make no pro- test against these unbearable condi- tions. What these unhappy people cannot do for themselves, citizens of happier lands must do for them, in the cause of humanity. At the conclusion of this més ft ah- ,sorbing address, Mrs. W. I. Harris, vice-regent of the Scugog Chapter of the I. 0. 0.

Ferguson seconded her motion. was quiet on the German front." Only! on probing beneath the surface, by entering the homes and gaining the! confidence of some of these unhappy people, can one get the facts, to ade- - quately describe which would require' the language of Dante's "Inferno" or of Milton's "Paradise Lost." What has gone on behind the scenes in Germany? A humble Jewish! merchant is beaten to death with such ferocity that not a square inch of skin is left on his back. A Jewish tailor is beaten into unconsciousness, | revived, beaten again into insensibil- ity, restored once more, flogged again! and cast into a cell in a dying con- dition. His family inquire for him, but are told that his whereabouts i! unknown. His comrades realizing the gravity of his condition, contrive to have him _ gent. home.. The family called a doctor, who on learning that the patient is a Jew refused to take! the case on the grounds-that to do sp would imperil his entire future. Turned from two hospitals, the dying man is finally admitted to a third where he expires shortly afterwards from a dislocated kidney. Caskets are returned from concentration camps, hermetically sealed to avoid in- spection, Under this dictatorship as ruthless and relentless as any in the Middle Ages, terror-stricken men and women, youths and maidens, are living in an atmosplere of venomous hate.

It was a very slow uninteresting game with both teams playing -anything but smart baseball. The diamond was a big factor in the day's play--it being very dry and having about two inches of loose dirt over the infield. of course errors predominated. Port Perry opened the scoring in the first inning, when Williams, Mec- Gill,. Philp and S. Beare crossed the plate to tally four runs. Sunderland failed to get a man in a scoring posi- tion until the fifth inning, when they scored three runs. From then on the game was all Sunderland. The Port team made error after error, and of course that kind of fielding certainly doesn't win ball games. The infield was just the same and Williams didn't receive any support whatever. Sunder- land secured 6 runs in the sixth, while Port: Perry made three and fumbled the ball on more occasions than one. Williams pitched quite ef- fectively; but he seemed to falter a bit and the rest of the team didn't support him very well after that, Cawker relieved Williams in the eighth and retired the side without any more runs being scored. Junkin pitched very effective ball for Sunderland after the first inning. He had six strike-outs and issued two walks, Willinms pitched seven innings and had ten strike-outs and issued four passes.
