OF CANADA, LIMITED The Above Valuable Property For Sale ‘THIS BATTERY ON DISPLAY Dealing with the Old Age Pension legislation Mr. Sinclair took some exâ€" ception to the fact that the Governâ€" ment had assessed the municipalities 20% of the funds necessary to meet the costs of distribution and adminisâ€" tration of these funds, pointing out that the original plan called for the assumption of the whole of the costs by the Province, which was later reâ€" vised to the end that theâ€"Province assume 50% and the Federal Govâ€" ernment 50%, now the legislation had been finally approved with an: assessâ€" ment of 20% of the Provincial costs assessed against the municipalities, this, he said, ‘in spite of the fact that not wanted by the Government, but was forced upon them by me, with the end in view for the change in the Election Act. Now since that change has been made no one may take the chance of such a practice occurring again.‘. $ ; cator Various Books Gent‘s Bicycle 1 Pair Rubber Boots 1 Pair Heavy Boots 1â€" Bridle 1 Buck Saw 1 Axe 2 Pieces Trellis Work and Gate 1 Pair Steps 1 Pair Grass Shears 1.

"Personally I am not much ‘conâ€" cernedâ€"having got past the stage of worrying about efforts of that nature, but when it effects the welfare of the Liberal Party that another matter.‘ ‘Now primarily for the interest of! those in the Northern part of Onâ€" Proceeding he expressed a doubt as to whether this Government was givâ€" ing just that service to the public, which was desired, as he pointed to the line / of children, he stressed the point of advantages which were presâ€" ented to the active worker of the Liberal Party toâ€"see to it that ‘these children shouldâ€" have every opportunâ€" ity presented to them of thoroughly learning and adapting themselves to the policies of the Liberal Party, which was based on the fact of renâ€" dering the greatest service to the greatest number.‘ Ontarip Liberal Committee No Status In the course of the address of Mr. Sinclair, ‘he took exception to "Dunâ€" can Mclntosh of Toronto" and the course he was pursuing, as he pointed out that this party, whose letter heads read ‘Ontario Liberal Comâ€" mittee‘, but bore no other name, teleâ€" phone or businesss address, had been communicating with Liberal organizâ€" ations throughout the Province using not too complimentary terms in referâ€" ence to the Liberal Leader. Exâ€"Speaker Of Provincial Doubts Service of Government The Hon. Nelson Parliament, spoke but briefly as he called on the need for all citizens to take an interest in the Political life of the country, as a duty to themselves and their homes, with a view of safeguarding their future welfare. He declared that there should be a more equitable disâ€" tribution of taxation throughout the Province, than at present existed, and deplored the fact that the Ferguson Government had been responsible for the. increase in the Provincial debt and. general taxation. > Reverting to his earlier comments on leadership Mr. Sinclair spoke of the members of the Liberal Party ‘all working together for the general growth, advancement and prosperity of the Liberal Party in Ontario‘ Re garding the possibility of an election, he intimated that there was little doubt in the minds of anyone but that there would be an election in the Proâ€" vince, and that it‘ would come this fall. "This is not a.‘dole‘ nor a handâ€" out nor anything of that sort. Who knows, but any one of us here toâ€"day, if and when we arrive at 70" (a voice: ‘Make it 60‘), "years may not need help too ? â€" Who of us but are renderâ€" ing some service to the State from day to day? We are working from day to day and the State is receiving the benefitâ€"at least the final benefit.

The swimâ€" mers start at the open gap just opâ€" !posite the Prince‘s Gates, but when |they turn in from outside the breakâ€" ‘water to complete ‘the first lap they will come in one gap this side of where they took off, cutting off over 600 feet. The first long stretch along the shore wall, where the swimmers swim after plunging in, in sight of onâ€" a lookers, is over 4,900 feet, but after At the conclusion of the proceeding President Noble tendered the warm thanks of the local organization for the honour that had been accorded the district by the presence of the leader of the Party and his active asâ€" sociates, which included those who spoke along with Col. A. T. Hunter, Dr. McLean and many other local notables in the Liberal circles. The committeé in charge of the afâ€" fair, which was conceded to have been one of the most successful Liberal gatherings held in the district, were President W. J. Noble, James Armâ€" strong, Secretary R. W.â€"Vipond, R. W. Hough, E. Broughton, Secretary of the Executive Committee for South York, G. W. Hood and J. Mcâ€" Phee, while an‘ active committee on Bright, Mrs. W. J. Noble and Mrs. R. W. Hough, took care of the needs of the visitors and children which was no small task. ~ There will be many dispirited and broken swimmers after it is all over and the alibis willâ€"come thick and fast. The home town papers of the various contestants will contain news of how the water was sold cold it froze certain portions of the body, or after passing the leaders, cramps overtook their swimmer and he was forced from the race. Lampery eels will also come in for their share of publiâ€" city as many of the swimmers have never seen one let alone feel one clingâ€" ing to them. _ cA The women‘s swim_will start someâ€" time between 10 a.m. and 12 noon on Friday, August 23rd. Definite time will be announced toâ€"day. A Note Too High. A tenor, "found" in a factory was on trial before_a wellâ€"krown London concert manager. He sang with singuâ€" lar purity the=usual ballads. about ‘earts and ‘opes and: ‘appy ‘omes. The manager was duly.‘:impressed, but, with a view to an engagement, venâ€" tured to suggest one improvement. Men‘s Race on Wednesday 28th â€"New Course Laid Out Close to the Shore The course is a rectangular one.. The first lapâ€"covers 10,485 feet, which is just short of two miles. The second third and fourth laps are9,855 feet each, which is far short of the two miles, while the last one overlaps the starting point to bring its total to 12,755 feet, making the women swimâ€" mers cover 52,805 feet, or five feet over the ten miles. "I should like to=hear an ‘h‘ or two," heâ€" said. & & O =al~ "Oh, save my*hair? Save my hair!" cried the woman who had slipped off the deck, pointing to a wig floating rapidly away in the bay. _» A new swimming course for ten and 15â€"mile swims at theâ€" Exhibition has been laid out, and it is less than two miles. The women will swim five iaps and the men eight laps. The course was laid out with a view of keeping the swimmers as close to the shore as possible so that people may see them. But providing the water is fiftyâ€" eight degrees or warmer it will be a struggle between only a few, once the eight mile point is past. "Caun‘t teach nie nuffink abaht muâ€" sue, guy‘nor," was the reply. "There ain‘t no H‘sâ€"the fighest note‘s G."â€" London Daily. Mail, _ "Madam," replied â€" the _ swimming hero, as he grabbed her shoulders, "I am only a life saver, not a hair restorer," nosae Â¥~ this the stretch along the inside course is 4,300 feet. YA Men‘s Course 82,370 Feet. The same coursecwill be laid for the men. They willâ€"swinm eight laps, which will make the distance 82,370 feet, or almost half a mile over the calledâ€"for 15 miles.. This eourse then is said to be tentative, as some distance . will have to be cut off to make the 15 miles, unless some agreement with the swimmers will take place. Maps of the course with its | disâ€" tances have been issued, and each swimmer will be given one. Flags, bouys and wire will map out the course, making a laneway for the swimmers. ‘_One stipulation in the rules of the contest that might prove a stumbling block to holding the swim ‘on the day advertised, is that the water must be 58 degrees. With the temperatures of the water varying very little each day and staying around 52, it looks doubtâ€" ful if it will warm up before the swim. It is believed that out of over 400 entries received, 35% will come. out after the first 200 yards. And after the first two miles 50% will be out of the water.. Then after three miles 75% will be out of the water, and after six miles there will only remain the battlers who intend to finish the race and capture some of the handâ€" some purse that is offered for prize money. . â€"> $ & tario, it is necessary for me in a pubâ€" lic way to make reference to thisâ€" and I hope the press will make reâ€" ference with it also. I. have no quarrel with this man.. Make inquirâ€" ies down ‘at the Liberal Association of Toronto, or elsewhere and you will not find his name on the rolls. He has no credentials that can take him into a Liberal gathering; yet in season and out he carries on this humbugging business, criticizing, me, criticizing this and that, saying most uncomplimentary things and using stationery, which leads people who do not know, astray. He has no authorâ€" ity and does not represent the great party in whose name he presumes to speak.‘ _ Ses *> s The finish will be at the same place as it was last year, that is about threeâ€"quarter way down the inside leg of the course. The finishing swimâ€" mers will climb into the barge next to the seawall. MARATRON SWIM â€"bBBRLS RAGt B F. G. (Teddy) Oke Local stock Broâ€" ker has announced, that contrary to many reports, the Toronto Millionaires fessional Hockey League would play the coming 1929â€"30 season in Toronto. George Sproules absence was quite noticeable on the Brampton team. The veterans field generalship and his ability to shoot with one or two men wrapped around his neck were greatâ€" ly missed. York Township officials are making their contractors employ British labor on their public works. This is a good plan and provides labor for the citiâ€" zens of the township. Speed limits in York Township will be changed in the near future but the rate .of speed on the Weston Road, Dundas Street and Scarlett Road will remain as they now are. These three roads are not under the jurisdiction of the York Township. This will be news for those using these highways. The swimmers are taking it easy from now till the day of the swim, they can only eat boiled foods, and no sweets. The Canadian professional hockey league promises to be stronger than ever this year and there will be the usual eight team group. The story going around that the circuit would only house six teams is wrong. A. Hunt assistant pro at the Lambâ€" ton Golf Club won the tournament staged by the assistants of the Canâ€" adian Professional Golf Association and held at Forest Hills course Monâ€" eal. He played consistant golf to seore 80 and 77 for the 36 hole competition. Toronto police are standing firm in their drive against Communism. York Township Council attended the Adam Beck Memorial service in Hamilton on Thursday last. But it would not surprise the writer if some of the less popular girl swimâ€" mers such as Lea Riley, Evelyn Armâ€" strong and Doris Beresford are all in the money. Mr. Oke is at present looking for a new ring for the Millionaires and it is rumored that Ravina Rink will be the new Home of the Team. _ Swimming stars sure appear to be very tempermental and the slightest disagreement seems to upset them badly. George has his old confidence back again and with no Managerial or traiâ€" ners troubles to contend with feels quite contented. Exhibition opens on Friday for anâ€" other record year. It will start off with the swim for the girls as the big opening feature. No tickets will be sold at the wicket this year for the exhibition as they intend to install a payâ€"asâ€"you enter system. This will avoid the lining up and will keep things on the move. Well folks toâ€"morrow is the day of the Big 10 mileâ€"swim and if all enâ€" trants take to the water there will be one big sâ€"pâ€"lâ€"aâ€"sâ€"hâ€" . s It is expected that itwill be a battle royal between Ethel Hertle the deâ€" fending champion and Martha Noreâ€" lius ex amateur champion, for first place. Thats enough of that. Be there and see for ourself. 3 Oshawa again are O.A.L.A. champâ€" ions defeating Brampton 5â€"3 in the second game of the playâ€"offs. York Township Business Men have completed plans for their second anâ€" nual road race. The race to be held on Saturday September 14. The meet will be held under the direction of the Monarch Athletic Club. Entry blanks may be secured from E. Myer, 68 Montclair Ave. > The battle of he giants will be held as usual on Thursday at the Arena when Jim Maloney 6 feet 5 inches tall and weighing 240, will meet the rough house Detroit Pole Stanley Stasiak 6 feet 3 inches tall 255 lbs in. a finish match. Parksides of Major .Sunnyside League EFme after their first defeat of the season came back stronger than ever to defeat Supremes 3â€"2 in a well played hard fought battle. George Young is swimming stronger than ever and his bad ankle appears to have come along nicely, and not giving much trouble. Nothing definite has been announcâ€" ed on the election for the Ontario house Mr. Sinclair states that it will be soon and the ministers of the govâ€" ernment say otherwise. Be ready for St. Georges looked quite strong in the Western City League final against St. Mary‘s and laying the same brand of ball in their remaining tilts should annex the title. Fans are certainly crowding in to Andy Taylors Mutual Street Emporiâ€" um to watch these thrilling mat conâ€" tests. Pitching before a crowd that roard their applause for their resvective teams Grayce Child and Babe Vincent showed their stuff. Miss Child allowed but two hits alâ€" though she gave away seven passes. As usual she had wonderful control in the pinches. If either of these two teams come up against, the .Bell. Telephone.team.. of the Industrial League it will be a battle royal. Bell‘s have a slight edge. Parksides record toâ€"date is 12 wins and 1 loss. A split with Johnny Walkers camp, looks bad for Byron Summers. THINGS WORTH KNOWING CLEANINES from the Field of Sport American tourist traffic along the Niagara Falls highway has been very heavy. If planing a holiday trip stay off this highway for Labour day if you do not want to move along at a snails pace all day. Dominion Bowling Tournament is on and has the usual attraction for a number of our local aspirants. All Honor to the Oshawa Lacrosse team and success on their trip West. It looks like the old Weston team that went West for the cup three years the announcement which is bound to come one of these fine days. esc id iVPILLG D LCC O OILIELADC se a ‘Kw ( 2 P 6 Za o ’1. m 6t Lo a P Mted 4N dnA cb SAAA 4. i4 oae ~"¢ aZ uol uo fiap>" Ei Z Laskocil biltle T2 es y 25 _ e t is »uas (fuluesp hi3 T8 s es z& > ) _9 n J W in Uf \GJ" uB s RBuilde tha MwL» 122 Main St. N.
