McLAUGHLIN GIVES OSHAWA $400,000 LIBRARY Oshawa will soon have a new $400,- 000 library, another gift of Col. R, 8. McLaughlin, Only three years ago Oshawa ratepayers refused to pay for the library themselves by voting down a mongy by-law. The new: library~will be on Bagot Street, directly across from the City Hall now under construction. Con- struction will start in a few months. The library will be named for -its donor. "The present Nbrary: at Simcoe and Ath) streets, -was built. in 1906, has ome inadequate- because of the paees growth of the Motor City. The new library will have a film section with an auditorium for 260 people; a. section for young people, reading rooms and an extension de- partment. MThe. citizens of Oshawa are in- dicating their preference for the bet- Jter books and it would be of satis- faction to me to associate myself in .1-a practical way with such a gratifying McLaughlin, "I feel sure the recent by-law was defeated not because the need was not: recognized but rather because of the simultaneous pressures for many civic improvements." Col. and Mrs. asin - have --given help to .their native city many times. - Among such gifts are Camp Samde, the finest Boy Scout Head- quarters in Canada, the McLaughlin Bandshell; Adelaide House, home" of the YWCA; the nurses residence at Pshawa General" 'Hospital, -and the Girl Guide House. th 3 Uxbridge - Two Shows Nightly--7.80 and 9.80 Saturdays and Holidays--7.00 and 9.00 Matinee 2.00 p.m. LAST SHOWING TO-NITE * THURSDAY, JULY 24th "SUBMARINE COMMAND" starring WILLIAM HOLDEN .and NANCY OLSON FRIDAY-SATURDAY, JULY 25-26 "OKLAHOMA ANNIE" in' Colour - -- Plus -- "SUSANNA PASS" in Colour starring 'ROY ROGERS and 'DALE EVANS MONDAY-TUESDAY, JULY 28.29 "A SOUTHERN YANKEE" \ "ering RED.

Tor. ex- plosives lying about, do not touch them but notify police or other auth- orities immediately." There. are. two" types of 'lasting caps, both readily recognized. as small aluminum or copper cylinders slight- ly less in diameter than an ordinary pencil." - Both types are designed to detonate dynamite and are loaded with powerful and sensitive charges for this purpose. One type, about. an inch and a half long, has an open end and is fired by flame from a fuse. The other type, from two to five inches long ,has two wires extending from one end and is fired by electrical current. Either type, if struck with a hammer or rock, may kill or injure anyone standing within a 25-foot radius. Dynamite 'cartridges are usually about eight inches long and an inch or so in diameter. Special types may be up to two feet long and from four to eight inches thick. Most have a brown waxed paper shell but sonié are in cardboard tubes. The important point to remember is that they are all sen- sitive and. their purpose is of explode with: tremendous force, skilled hands they are essential ao oe, the hands of children or inexpert - adults they can cause injury or death The warning is repeated: If you BA | find blasting caps or explosives, don't touch them. Report them to police or other authorities. } re Baking Sale - A "home-made baking sale will be held under the auspices of Prince Al- bert Woman's Association on Satur- day, August 2nd,' commencing at 2.80 o'clock at the Waterfront. Hand-made knitted articles will also be for sale.

From* statistics supElisd. by the Telecommunication-Division of the De- partments of Transport in Ottawa and the Provincial Departments of Edu- cation in .the 10 provinces the CBC School Broadcasts - Department has compiled information dealing with the | 4 distribution of school radios in Can- ada. The figures reveal there were 9,817 free radio receiving set licenses issued to. English-speaking schools | 'last year--:an firicrease of 18.9 per cent over :the number issued in the pre- vious year, .' 'Free licenses were forwarded to 48.26 per cent of the English-speaking schools in Canada which received pro- | vincial grants, Those not receiving provincial grants (private institutions: ete.) mustipurchase licenses. A great many do, and in view of this the CBC School Boardcasts Department esti- mates over 50 per cent of Canadian English-speaking schools are equip- ped with radios, This figure com- pares favorably with other ¢ountries. _ According to T. V. Dobson, CBC as- sistant -supervisér of school broad- casts, there are several reasons for the success of the CBC in thé educa- tional 'field. For provincial programs --broadcasts prepared to augment the n | curriculum of an individual province-- the Corporation works closely with the various educational: bodies and Provincial Departments of Education. CBC National - School Broadcasts, a major undertaking of the CBC each school year, are planned upon the re- commendation of the National 'Advis- ory Council on School Broadcasting. The preparation of 'a school broad- cast for the national series may take -Jtwo years, with producer, writer and teacher-advisor working closely to- gether on the final script. Some scripts are written as many as four times before the program is ready to be airéd. In its presentation the finest 'acting and musical talent avafl- able is utilized. 5 Costs 'of originating provinelal series are ghared--the province con- cerned pays talent fees and the CBC provides the broadcast facilities. School broadcasts have stimulated new interest in a nymber of subjects by aiding teachers in their difficult task of widening their pupils horizon of experience. With music and drama adding color. to the black and white pages of text books, the little red school house, now part of the world's most extensive classroom, opens fits doors to a real | adventire in learning, 3 " The purple' violet comes in for par- ticular acclaim in New Brunswick and is used as the flower emblem of that province, = '. : a » * » » Holberg, B.C., is a town built com- pletely. on rafts, It is composed of homes for lumberjacks, i Al & ITS EASY TO PLEASE JUST SERVE (calily According to recent figures, : WE emp 91 FOR SERVICE = "PHONE 78 BLUE COAL SUMMER PRICES July es don SIB00 August ..................ton $26.25 Briere $26.50 Discount 50c. fon if paid in 15 days.
