took all the prizes: 1, Dunn,
AllLston; % Button, Stouffville;
3, Yerex, Richmond Hill; 4,
Pcarccy, Tottenham; 5, Dr.

The three Newmarket rinks
were those of H. B. Marshall, J.
O. Little and R. L. Pritchard.
The other six Newmarket rinks
went down io Aurora and fought
it out among themselves. C. F.
Willis and Vaughan Goring took
first place, receiving one dollar
each in war savings stamps; 1 - the
rest of the pool going into the
c!ub coffers.
The first monthly competition
for the Lcs. Reilly trophy will

This trophy has been given by
Miss Minnie Reilly in' memory
of her brother* who was presi-
dent of the club two years ago.
It is for monthly competition in
mixed doubles, and will be held
over-winter by the rink winning
it at the last competition of the
summer season,

Dear Club:
Just a little note to thank you,
as best we can, for what you have
done for our grandson. Words
fail to exrroF'5 our deep gratitude
to you. You have given him a
chance to be like other fellows,
so that he can take his place
with ihe rest. We know that
, as he grows older, will
realize what you have done and
will be eternally grateful. Only
when a person has received such
help as we have can they fully
appreciate the great work such
an organization as yours is
doing. Once again Mrs.
and I wish to take this oppor-
tunity of thanking you and wish
you every success in your great
endeavor.
"WILLIN G TO HELP"
In view of the serious short-
age of labor, due to enlistment,
war industry and other war con-
tingencies, the Ontario govern-
ment has set up an organization
to enroll and make available to
in every section of
southern Ontario as many extra
helpers as possible. The great
majority of these helpers will be
inexperienced in farm work but
will be sent out because of their
willingness to help save the farm
crop.
This farm labor problem has
two phases: (1) discovery and
enrolment of suitable help and
(2) location of the farmers who
need the help, determining the
kind of help they can use, how

Mrs. Aubrey Bailey was guest

out registration there.
Citizens are giving their sci-
vjces to assist the deputy-regis-
trars with their tremendous task.
The deputy-registrars and their
assistants, not the public, will
fill out the long questionnaires,
spending an estimated 15 min-
utes with each individual reg-
istering.
"People should make them-
selves familiar with the ques-
tions, as published in the press,
beforehand, to save time." Head-
master Joseph McCullcy of
Pickering College, one of the
deputy-registrars for Newmar-
kct. told The Era.
"People are urged to register
as early as they can," Mr.
McCulloy also said. "It is
assumed that it will take 15
minutes for each individual to
register."
■ Registration will take place at
Alexander Muir school, for St.
George's ward, at St. John's
school, for St. Patrick's ward.
o? d * at Kine Gcor g* school, for
St. Andrew's ward.

fund, into which" all the carnival
money goes, there is the club's
own fund, made up of member-
ship fees, and out of this second
fund all non-community expenses
are taken care of, such as dues
to the International organization,
expenses of delegates to con-
ventions, and occasional unbud-
gctted welfare projects. '
The club members themselves,
of course, personally pay for
their meals at the semi-monthly
dinner meetings.
All administration costs also
come out of the club member*
ship fees, so that every cent of
profit from the annual carnival
goes back into the community in
one or other of the many welfare
projects.
The club makes only one
annual appeal for money, with
the exception of opening a list
at Christmas time for contribu-
tions to the Christmas stocking
fund.
Chairman of the carnival com-
mittee is Frank Courtney. With
him are Frank Bowser, Leo Cull.
Harry Lambert and W. R. Ewing,
with all the members of the club
giving a helping hand.

VETERANS INVITED TO
ATTEND TWO EVENTS
Newmarket Veterans arc in-
vited to attend the 15th annual
service in memory of Sir Adam
Beck, arranged by the Canadian
Corps Association for Sunday at
3.30 p.m. at the Hamilton ceme-
tery.
Ex-service men arc asked to
fall in at Dundurn Park, directly
opposite the cemetery, at 3 p.m.
Berets, armbands and medals
will be worn.
The committee in charge of
this service- is particularly anx-
ious to have a good turn-out of
ex-service men at this service,
to pay their respects to the mem-
ory of ono whose example was
outstanding in the last Great
War.

, ■
If you've been out Bogarttown
way lately, you have probably
noticed that many of the farm
homes seem to have had their
faces lifted. If you want to
know why, you can probably
blame it on the Bogarttown
community club.
That progressive organization
is conducting a home improve-
ment contest, with contestants
entered from Second Street to
Cedar Valley and many of them
are really making the old place
look like new.
The idea of the contest is to
see which contestant can do the
most to improve his place by
cleaning up rubbish, destroying
weeds, painting and repairing
buildings, installing labor-saving
devices, etc. ■' .. - - - - ;";.-;.
The club was very fortunate
in securing S. W. King, manager
of Picketing College farm, as
Judge. Mr. Kirig visited each
contestant early in May and
scored the places visited. Dur-
ing the last week of August he
will return and judge them
again. .The place that shows the
most improvement will take first
prize. Many worth-while prizes
are being offered, and alt con-
testants arc busy in a last- min-
ute rush to take first place.
The club Is indebted to the
following local business estab-
lishments for the excellent spe^.
cial prizes they are offering to
make the prize list really worth-

TOWN LOSES ONE OF
ITS OLDEST RESIDENTS
Funeral services took place on
Tuesday for the late Elizabeth
Millard, who died on Saturday
in her 92nd year. She had not
been well since she fell last
autumn and broka her hip.
, . Daughter of Susan Hollings-
head and Joseph Millard, of New-
market, Miss Millard lived all her
life in the family residence at 22
Botsford St., where she was bom.
She lived a quiet, retiring life.
Her father had a furniture shop
on Main St., where the Chain-
way store now stands, in addition
to factories on Timothy St
Miss Millard was the last
surviving member of her family.
She leaves eight nieces: Mrs,
George Anderson, Calgary, Misses
Gertrude, Saida, and Hanella
Millard, Newmarket. Miss GeraU
dine Millard, Toronto, Mrs. J, N,
Middleton, Toronto, and the
Misses F. and B.; Rumseyy who
drilling outfit which he designed
and built himself, using old parts
from discarded machinery.
Mr. Bellar then called upon
Fred Hollingshead, of Holland
Landing too, to "smell out," to
"witch," or to "divine" the water,
according to the word you pre-
fer.
"I have had 80 per cent results
with Hollingshead," said Mr,
Bellar. "Sometimes minerals in-
terfere and that puts the diviner
out in his estimate of the amount
of water or the depth at which it
will be found. Mr. Hollingshead
used an apple/ or a willow stick.
I don't know which.
"And he found some water but
not enough. He told us where to
drill and said we would find the
water at 64 feet. Wc found
water at 60 feet, but when we
pumped it out it took too long to
fill in ogain."
Then Mr. Bellar turned to an-
other diviner. It was she that
The Era saw in action on Tues-
day. Mrs. Ross Ed^ar of New-
market, whose husband is work-
ing in a mine at South Porcu-
pine, was formerly Marie Wilson
of Newmarket
We would guess that she is
30 years of age. We didn't ask
her. because she said she didn't
like publicity. She has been
divining water since she was 14
years of age. One day out at
Mount Albert a water diviner
tested thei water-divining capa-
city of a bunch of youngsters and
she was the only one to reveal
the ncccsary ability.
Mrs. Edgar had a crotched
stick, with three prongs, which
she cut from a sweet-apple tree.
She held two prongs firmly in her
hands with the third pointing in
front of her. Then she walked
about slowly. When she crossed
one particular piece of ground
the stick slowly twisted itself
around in her hands, making two
complete turns when we saw her
repeat the performance.
ir Mr, Bellar would drill n well
there, and he plans to do so, he
will find water perhaps at 60
feet, but certainly at 60. we be-
lieve she said. Mrs, Edgar said
that the job was complicated by
all the scrap iron about.
She took her stick over the
place where Mr. Hollingshead
found water and got a slight re-
action there.
Mrs. Edgar handed the writer
her stick, but he got no results
v/ith it. He tried to make it
twist in his hands as it had
twisted in Mrs. Edgar's hands but
found it impossible.
Wo were therefore forced to
the conclusion that either Mrs.
Edgar has developed an unusual
muscular ability with her hands,
and her own subconscious brain
is causing her hands to turn the
slick, or else there must be some-
thing in divining, witching or
smelling water. Whatever the
explanation, it is a surprising
thing to see.
"Do you believe in it?*' we
asked Mr. Bellar.
"Yes, but I can't do it myself,"
he said.
"Deep well drillers have good
reason for not believing in it."
he said. "They are paid for the
number of feet they drill. They
don't want to find water easily."
Another day or two will tell
how well Mrs. Edgar did her job.
Phone Goodman's Auto Wreckers
at Newmarket 305 for progress
reports.
The camps will all be small.
They will have accommodation
for from two to four companies,
from 500 to* 1,000 men, and will
be equipped for year-round train-
ing. Training will be concen-
trated on four points: physical
exercise, squad drill, gas train-
ing and musketry.
The first 30,000 will go to
camps early in October. As it
is not now planned to have men
called up during the Christmas
season, there will likely be only
two classes this fall. Starting
with the New Year there will
be a class every 30 days.
Col. Ralston again emphasized
that men called up would be
treated; exactly as men who had
enlisted in non-permanent active
militia units. After Aug. 15 no
more enlistments will be per-
mitted in the militia units.
Men going to camp will be
given a medical examination by
department of national war ser-
vices. They will get a second
medical board after reporting at
camp. CoL Ralston expects that
98 per cent of the men who
report will be physically fit for
duty.
In addition to the 39 training
camps being opened, there are
the regular militia camps where
the volunteers this summer will
sleep under canvas. There are
also six large camps for the
Canadian active service force^ —
Vaicartior, Petawawa, Borden,
Shilo, Barriefield and Dundurn.
Of these all but Shilo will be in
operation throughout the winter.
There are now 106,183 men in
the Canadian active service force
in Canada, without counting
overseas forces, which numerical-
ly total more than two divisions.
More troops will be sent over-
seas, but there will be around
100,000 of the C.A.S.F. under
arms in Canada throughout the
winter.

COMMUNITY KITCHEN
:In these days when we are thinking in terms
of iaUoiial. efficiency, and the elimination of
-waste/and in these hot days of summer, wouldn't
a system of community kitchens be a godsend?
There would not only be the saving incidental to
the wholesale way of doing things, but there
would be a tremendous release of women from
duplicative drudgery- ' Suppose that here in
^Newmarket we had the necessary buildings, the
' kitchens and dining-halls where the entire town
£='? could, if they wished, have their meals. Let's
: leave out breakfast— no one minds preparing one
jr'^iiiMJa day, especially breakfast, and washing the
c v dishes afterward.
- /But to do it three times a day, and seven days
: ; i .a week, for five or six people, or even one or
• - .-two, becomes drudgery. And, of course, the work
V lis taken for granted. Seldom does anyone bother
:!-.{■ io say how nice the meals are, or offer to help
^ with the dishes. But even appreciation doesn't
r "repay one for doing work that could be
eliminated. Suppose that in each of the town's
.three wards there were a community kitchen.
There would be a dietitian in charge of each
kitchen, who would plan the meals and superin-
tend the Work. Each family in the ward which
'wailed itself of the services of the community
Sh kitchen would have to contribute so much labor.
The woman of the house or her deputy would
perhaps have to give one week's service a month
In the community kitchen— perhaps four or five
:;/houra a- day. Perhaps it would work out that
p|v each family would have (o contribute less labor
It^ithan that Then there would be an accountant to
£t: keep track of costs in the three kitchens, to pay
' : the bills and sell the meal tickets. It might,
easily work out that people could be fed in this
Way good, modern meals, with all the proteins,
fats an3 vitamins desirable, for ten cents per
person per meal. Light, heat, rent, the dietitian's
salary, and part of the accountant's salary, might
add a cent or two more.
Ten cents per person per meal would mean an
expenditure on food a week of $7 for a family of
five for two meals a day. It is obvious that some
families could not afford that much, just as it is
obvious that at the present time the same
families cannot possibly be getting the kind of
food which they should have — sufficient milk,
^V for instance, or sufficient fruits and fresh
vegetables in certain seasons. There would
therefore need to be some form of subsidy to
tho3e who could not afford to pay ten or 15 cents
for meal tickets for their entire family. This
could be accomplished either through direct help
> to some families or through a municipal subsidy
to the community kitchens.
People would always be free to eal at home it
>;£ they wished. Or women who could afford to do
so and wanted to miss the fun of working in the
community kitchen could, if they wished, make
a cash payment to the kitchen in lieu of a con-
tribution of labor. V/omen who were working
in a store/factory or office or who wished to
devote themselves to looking after their children
could use their time to
working in the community
kitchen would thus not he tied down. Jncident-
Tally. for womeii, T with young children, who did
their share of kitchen work, there would have
to be a nursery as part of the community kitchen,
Iwhere they could deposit their children while
Stltey/ivorked. • ,; •

Now, to help the farmer in time of War, he has
postponed the opening of city, town and countiy
schools. He is not satisfied to giant leave of
absence to those few high school students who
secured farm jobs. He must do something sen-
sational. He keeps every : six-year-old from
school. He upsets carefully planned curricula.
He wastes the money which the public pays
anyway for teaching salaries. He wastes the time
of teachers. He gives tired parents an extra two
weeks of looking after their public-school-age
children; And he does it at a time when the
peak of the farm rush will be over.
Of course, the plan won't go through as
originally planned. But Mr. Hepburn will have
had a month's limelight. Chuckling quietly to
himself, he will charge to advertising the abuse
he will bring upon himself and, probably in
accordance with schedule, make a last-minute
change which will answer many of the objections
raised. Mr. Hepburn is not a dictator. -He pur-
ports to dictate but eventually he responds to
public opinion. No, this 13 no ordinary politician.

SCHOOL DAZE, SCHOOL DAZE,
DEAR OLD HEPBURN
Premier Mitchell F. Hepburn has us all lying
our handkerchieves in knots again. It's a gift.
IWe used to think it political ineptitude, but now
HJ^? Ave begin to suspect that the pool runs deep. We
begin to suspect that Mr. Hepburn knows he will
create a furore when he announces the postpone-
ment of school opening, and that he may even
find it expedient to revoke the decision at the
last minute. In the meantime, however, there
will have accrued to him and his government
great -quantities of limelight and publicity. The
limelight may not be rose-colored and the pub*
Ikity may be unfriendly, but what expert of the
''ballot-box will say that it has not its value?
put "of complete oblivion, out of the doldrums
of summer, by a single order-in-council Mr.
Hepburn rescues a Queen's Park completely
overshadowed by Ottawa as the centre of Can-
ada's war activity. Other provincial premiers
may be summoned to Ottawa, but Mr. Hepburn
must out-Ottawa Ottawa, He must make Toronto
the centre of war activities. He must suspend
municipal elections, he must organize an army,
he must postpone school opening.
j- What does it matter if he must modify his
plans as originally announced? The only kind of
government action which attracts public attention
is sensational action. Mere government economy
and "retrenchment do not bring the applause of
■ the multitude. And besides, you can't economize
suddenly.

*The battle of Britain has
begun," Britishers were told by
their newspapers on Monday.
Albania, invaded and subdued
by Italy a year or two ago, is
now in turmoil, with a report
that 400 Italian soldiers had been
killed in four days.
The death of an Albanian
across the border in Greece,
termed "murder" in Italy, has
been the cause of Italian pro-
tests to Greece. Italy poses as
the defender of Albania.
Many United States news-
papers and prominent leaders
are urging that their country
supply destroyers to Britain.
The British are worrying about
feeding their machine-guns, not
about letting the U.S. feed con-
tinental Europe, says the Herald-
Tribune, New York. "If they
don't feed them fast enough this
country will not be thinking
about rationing Hitler Europe
this winter either."
A military defensive alliance
with Canada is being discussed
in Washington.
Motor-accidents and drown-
ings took a large toll of lives
throughout Ontario over the
weekend.
The Germans were believed to
be shelling England with long-
range guns on Monday.
Four members of the Austral-
ian war cabinet died in an aero-
plane crash Monday.
Hon. Angus. L. Macdonald,
minister of national defence for
naval affairs, received an accla-
mation in Kingston on Monday.
He will take the seat formerly
held by the late Hon. Norman
Rogers. Mr. Macdonald was
formerly premier of Nova Scotia
and succeeds a Nova Scolian as
member for Kingston.
NEWSPAPERS NOT
ALWAYS SELFISH
About a year ago one or two public men were
denouncing the newspapers of the province
because they were opposing the arbitrary exten-
sion of municipal council terms from one year to
two years. These public men said that the
newspapers were opposed to the proposal because
they v/ould lose advertising and printing revenue.
It was a sharp thrust of the rapier and many
people believed that, as the newspapers all were
opposed to the Ontario government's action, it
must be to protect their purses. It was certainly
true that daily and weekly newspapers would
fose a little, very little, advertising, and that
weekly newspapers would lose some printing, in
some cases, quite a bit of printing. Newspapers
would also lose, although this point was not made
against them, some election news, and no doubt
all these points strengthened the opposition of
the newspapers to the proposal. -We believe,
however, that the real opposition of most news-
papers was to the attempt at dictatorship and to
the substitution of a biennial check-up on
municipal government for an annual one.
However, we could write and write and write
and still some people would think that the real
opposition of the newspapers to biennial elections
was based on selfish monetary considerations.
Supposing that was the real truth of the matter,
then we might suppose that they would act
similarly whenever there was a chance for them
to benefit themselves financially. Take unem-
ployment insurance. This federal scheme will
exact contributions from newspapers and their
employees, but those contributions will be paid
to unemployed industrial workers. Newspaper
employment remains steady week in and week
out, year in and year out. Large newspapers
might reduce their staffs slightly in bad times,
but not appreciably. Wouldn't it then be logical
for newspapers to oppose unemployment insur-
ance, or to claim exemption for themselves similar
to the exemption granted to banks, we believe,
and one or two other groups where employment \
is also steady? }
Nothing of the sort has happened. Most news-
papers have endorsed unemployment insurance
and the one or two who have opposed it have
merely objected to its immediate inauguration, j
And, so far as we know, there has been no re*
quest to the government that newspapers be
exempted.
PETAINS AMONG US

it is the business of newspapers to pretend that
they understand everything, even problems that

DECLARES FELLOWSHIP
ONCE SAVED HIS LIFE
Rev. Dr. D. G. Cock was the
speaker at " the Salvation Army
Youth Group last Friday night.
This meeting was under the
leadership of the Christian fel-
lowship group.
; Harold Rutledge, accompanied
by his sister. Miss ■ Kathlee n
Kutledge, played three selections
on his . violin: "On Wings of
Song," by Mendelssohn, "Hum-
oreske," by A. Dvorak, "Mighty
Lak' a Rose," by E. Nevin.
Rev. Dr. Cock spoke on
"Christian Fellowship," showing
how necessary this is in every-
day life as well as in the spiritual
life of a person.
"If it is to be a life at all it is
to be one of fellowship," said Dr.
Cock. "Every good thing has a
source, and the source of our
fellowship is in Jesus Christ.
'Him whom we have not seen,
we love/ This certainly is fel-
lowship. It is fellowship which
makes us all brothers and sisters
in Jesus Christ. 1 *

in
had played a large part in mak-
ing his career a successful one.
He said that if there was not fel-
lowship among the Christians in*
India, where he spent a number
of years as a missionar>% the
missionaries certainly would not
be able to carry on the great
work that they are doing.
Dr. Cock told of an experience
he once had when in charge of
a church in Labrador. There are
always a number of icebergs
around, he said. One iceberg
was entirely different from the
others. This one was hollow
and anyone could go through it
in a boat. One day Dr. Cock
was out in a fishing boat with a
man named Esau.
They thought how nice it
would be to sail right through
this iceberg, certainly an exper-
ience no one else could boast of
having. Accordingly they de-
cided to go through. So they
went out to the iceberg, but
when they got there they decided
they'd like to go around first,
possibly not go through at all.
They sailed around to the
other side, when, all of a sud-
den, there was a terrific bang
and the iceberg had broken.
The boat they were in was al-
most swamped and for a while
the waters were in a dreadful
turmoil.
"How fortunate it was that we
were in fellowship with one an-
other;' said Dr. Cock. "If not,
one might have wanted to go
through so much that the other
would have gone too." It was
also through such fellowship
that the two men found their
way back to shore, for neither
were familiar with that place.
"There are five points to the, _ , . .. ,, f , .
compass, north, south, east, west! l couldnt swallow; I couldnt
and where you are' says an old {.remember a angle word of the
proverb, and to be happy where I sonif -
yen ?.re there must be Christian
fellowship." said Dr. Cock. >

This year of 1940 has been, and
is* a year of suspense. Over the
nations hangs the sword of
Damocles and there is no sooth-
saver to tell where or when it
Will fall.
Suspense can do curious things
to most of us. We knew that,
even before the psychologists
informed us of the havoc it plays
with our morale.
Those of us who are older, and
those who are young, know what
it's like to wait for the result of
an examination to be published.
"When it came near the time
for the lists to be out. I couldnt
pick up a paper without feeling
exactly as I do when I go down
very fast in an cle%'ator, as if Td
left my stomach at the top.
And everyone knows all the
things that can happen to you—
in imagination— as you wait your
turn in a dentist's office, you
suffer a thousand agonies, of
which few, in these days, mater-
ialize. But we let our imagina-
tions run riot just the same.
And I can remember the first
time I ever sang at a concert. I

country — against the subtle foe-V
They have found that work is : :
the best bulwark against fear -

They have a righteous indjg-. : .
nation against a foe who has •
shown small regard for the sim-

and righteous indignation can -
stiffen one's moral backbone:'
very effectually; and they have
a strong sense of being a bulwark
against further encroachments of

invasion, a different group obtained power in
France, a group which, may be able, with German
propaganda methods, to mold public opinion to
suit themselves; but not a group which was repre-
sentative of public opinion in France at the time
they took power. We have in this country clever
criminals who, if they, managed to gain power as
the result of extreme depression or military de-
feat (Hitler gained power as a result of German
defeat in the last war, Pctain gained power as a
result of French defeat in this war), would soon
make us appear as bad a lot as the Germans
appear under Hitler's leadership. We also have
lots of people in this country, not criminals, who,
if they gained absolute power, would he no Im-

We talk about democratic arid peaceful jdeals,
but our people do not all think along such lines.
Borne of us are militarists, fascists, am! totalitar-

There is a letter which a clumsy British propa-
gandist with, a fascist mind must have faked as
a posthumous letter from a British llier to his
mother. The letter was published in an Knglish
newspaper and has. been reprinted in Canadian
newspapers. We commented on it once before,
and now we see that one newspaper has, by ro>
quest, published thu same letter for the second
time, and declares that "it may well become a
classic."
Is it democracy or is it fascism (whether of the
German, Italian or Japanese brand, we couldn't
say)? The missing airman's station commander

that this war is a very good thing . . . . How-
ever long the : time may be, one thing can never

his worship asked the accused.
Can't you get a job on the
farm?". ;':-, ;'--: 'i X 1 - 'a j.
"I don't like farm work," was
the reply. "I've tried it, but I'm
no good at it."
. "You can't pick and choose
these days," commented the
magistrate. "You may have to
go on the farm yet "
The youth promised to go
home and seek a job in a factory
or join the army, if he were
acquitted of the charges against
him. -
.'Til place you on suspended
sentence for one year," said his
worship. "But remember you
can be brought back on these
charges if you ever get into
trouble again." . :-
Long and involved discussion
on the post-war dislocation of
Europe, and the meaning of
"German and Italian racial ori-
gin," followed, when three resi-
dents of the Holland Landing
marsh, appeared to answer
charges of having failed to regis-
ter their firearms.
The charge against Alexander
Frantzen, who admitted having
an unregistered .22 calibre rifle
in his possession, was dismissed
on proof that the accused was
not an enemy alien, having been
born in Jugoslavia, of Jugoslav-
ian parents and grandparents.
Provincial Police Jacula and
Harrington testified that they
had searched the premises of
Frantzen and found the rifle in
his bedroom. They admitted that
the accused was very frank in
answering their questions.
Frantzen, in his own defence,
told the court that he had lived
13 years in this country and
that three of those years were
spent in Holland Landing.
"Did you know that you had
to have a permit to vsc a rifle?"
asked his counsel, J. Reycraft.
"Yes, I have a permit," answered
the accused.
"Are you a naturalized British
subject?" The defendant pro-
duced papers which he had taken
out on Oct 14. 1932.
"Pi» vou or your parents ever
live in Italy or Germany?" asked
Crown Attorney N. L. Mathews,
K.C. "Ho, never," was the reply.
"I don't see anything that we
can do but acquit him," Mr.
Mathews commented. "I don't
see that this man is of German
or 'Italian racial origin."
John Shaefer, also charged
with possessing an unregistered
.22 calibre rifle, was fined $10
and costs or 20 days in jail.
Shaefer, a Rumanian, unnatural-
ized, admitted having the rifle,
but said that he did not know
that he had to register it until
it was too late. Ho said that he
used the gun to shoot ground-
hogs and skunks.
(Firearms cannot be retained
by any alien or by any former
alien naturalized since Sept. 1,
1929, who Is of German or
Italian racial origin.)
The charge of having an un-
registered shotgun in his poss-
ession on Aug. li, against Jacob
Lidner, a Rumanian living in
Holland Landing, was dismissed
when it was proved that he did
not own the gun on that date, as
he had given it to a Canadinn-
born friend some time in June.
Lidner stated that he had
heard over the radio that aliens
must register firearms. He said
that, as he had no use for the
gun. he had given it away.
"Why have you never "become
naturalized?" asked Magistrate
Woodliffe.
"I have property in Rumania
on which my mother is living."
the accused explained. "There
is a Jaw in Rumania that if a
Rumanian becomes naturalized
in any other country he loses his
property."
"Lidner is charged with hav-
ing the unregistered shotgun on
Aug. U » said his worship. "He
gave it away in June. I find
that I must dismiss the charge."
Discussion of the term "Ger-
man racial origin" became so
involved, when Joneiih Seibert
and his son, Martin, Holland
Landing, took the stand \o de-
fend themselves for failing to
roeisler, as laid down in the
"Defence of Canada Regulations
-Act," that the case was adjourn-
ed A week in order to allow time
to look into the act.
Seibert, Sr., u naturalized
Canadian, said that he was a
Jugoslav, by birth and racial
origin. He said that he and his
ancestors lived. in that part of
Jugoslavia which had been
in Austria-Hungary and after the
last war became part of Ru-
mania. Later this piece of
country became part of Jugo-
slavia. ": -
"Did you ever live under the
German Reich?" asked Crown
Attorney Mathews. , "No, our
town was never under the Ger-
man Reich, we never lived under
it," replied Seibert.
Both father and son were
bound over in the sum of $500
to appear in court next week.
John Gould, Stouffville, was
fined $5 and costs for failing to
obtain a dog license. Constable
John Williamson testified that
he had gone to Gould's home to
sec that the defendant bought a
license.
"I saw Mrs. Gould," he stated.
"She told me 4 to go to the devil'
—that she would not get a
license."
Magistrate Woodliffe gave the
constable permission to destroy
the dog if necessary.
Fred Preston, also of Stouff-
ville, Thomas Holding, Toronto,
and George Crittenden, Sutton
West, were each fined $10 and
costs for failing to obtain oper-
ator's licenses.
Preston, pleading not guilty to
the charge, accused Constable
William Hill of not asking for
his permit, but for his ownership
card. He admitted not having
a permit at the time the con-
stable asked to see it.
"You should have told the
officer that you didn't have a
license," said his worship.
Because his livelihood depends
upon the outcome of two
charges', careless driving and
assault, brought against him by
Clark Harrison, a Toronto youth
summering at Lake Simcoe, the
case involving Carl Anderson,
Keswick, was adjourned until
next week in order to give the
magistrate time to look over the
evidence.
Harrison testified that he had
stopped at a candy booth near
Keswick, and left his bicycle on
the gravel sidewalk. 10 feet in
front of Anderson's truck, which
was parked at a gas pump. He
contended that the defendant
should have seen his bicycle and
not have run over it when he
started his truck. He said that
he had asked Anderson to pay
for the bicycle but that he re-
fused. He accused the defend-
ant of pushing his head through
the window of the booth.
Anderson, in his own defence,
slated that tho bicycle was only
8 feet in front of his truck and
that when he had gotten into the
cab he could not sec it. He
denied pushing Harrison's head
through the window but said
that he had raised his hand to
give him a little push when
Harrison put his head back. It
went through the window,
"If there had been a child or
a dog in front of your truck it
would have been run over also,"
said Mr. Mathews.
John Mitchell, Brownhill,
charged with trespassing, was
given a week in which to vacate
the premises of Leslie Nelson,
Brownhill.
Nelson, who had taken over a
store and one and a half acres
of land from James Cane on a
mortgage claim, said that Mitch-
ell continued to live in a build-
ing which once had been part
of the store, but had been moved,
after he had given him three
notices to vacate.
Mitchell, in his own defence,
Mated that he had a three years
lease with James Cane at $2.50 a
month. He said that Nelson
would not take the rent.

IS WED AT PRETTY
CHURCH CEREMONY!
. Earlscourt United church was
the scene of a pretty wedding
last Saturday evening when Miss
Gertrude Pearl Rose, daughter
of Mrs. W, C. Wight and the late
WILL RESIDE AT
LARDER LAKE
The home of Mr. and Mrs. W.
It Shaw, Eramosa township, was
the scene of a very pretty wed-
ding on Monday, when their
younger daughter, Huth t-gofael,
Mr. Leslie Rose of Toronto, be- was united in marriage to Mr.
them.
Andrew Tod's first venture in
the west was on the land. He
can tell stories of wagons and
horses getting mired in Alberta's
sloughs (pronounced 4, slews" by
the westerner) as the home-
steaders set out for pastures
green. Mr. Tod was hailed out
nnd burned out. He sold his
farm for a car.
The Tods and the Services
were from Glasgow. They with
other Scottish families settled at
;» olace which they named
Scotstown. Among their num-
ber was "Dick" Rcid. who became
premier of Alberta a few years
ago.
Phil. Tod joined his family
there in 1006. Played football
with a Scotstown team that used
to lick all-comers. In fact,
brother Andrew, now in New-
market, was captain of the all-
Alberta team that defeated the
Corinthians, the British football
team that toured Canada in those
early days.
Farming, with hail included. I
did not appeal too much to Phil.
Tod, and so the same year he
struck out for Edmonton, then a
town of 10.000 population and
joined the Merchants* Bank.
Two years later his bank sent
him to Acme to hold that point
against all comers. The railway
was going through there, and the
young banker set up a tent for
himself and carried the bank in
his pocket.
This job done, ho turned the
fort over to successors and re-
turned to Edmonton as account-
ant. In 1911 he went to Winni-
peg as assistant manager, in 1918 !
to Neepawa as manager and in
1933 he came to Newmarket.
Now he retires, with a year's
leave of absence, before going on
pension, because he has reached
the a*e limit of 60 years, set so
low in order to give younger
men a chance for promotion.
With their son. James, attend-
ing the University of Toronto.
Mr. and Mrs. Tod plan to stay
Newmarket. They will live

Agincourt showed a nice brand

SUMMER SYMPHONY -
AURORA JUNIORS are sche-

play-cff series against Islington in
the semi-finals of the Zone 2 group-
ings. The first game will be here
either Monday or Tuesday night
with the return game in Islington

arises because, while the game is
billed for Monday, that is the ni^ht

and one or two members of the
team are on duty then. The offic-
ial pronouncement says that games
may be advanced, but not put back.
and army duty Is mentioned in
this regard.
The Aurora boys hope, however,
t o arrange ' matters satisfactorily
with Islington and Secretary Verne
Mcllwralth. The team is now be-
ing coached by Frank Mlchantuk,
but has had little or no practice,
although thi3 week things are
perking up. Let's hope It's not too

teams might have met *n the
finals. Aurora did not raise this
point, however, until after the
second Newmarket game. Barrie
turned up at Richmond Hill last
week for the rubber match with
only eight men and when they got
ahead o~* f Richmond Hill protested
the game on this point. Subse-
quently, the Hillcrs came out in
front and the game didn't so seven
innings and Barrie protested.
The Tourth game was ordered or
mutually agreed upon, and Rich-
mond Hill triumphed again. The
reason for the fourth game is a
little mysterious, as it would
appear the whole affair was
caused by Barrie's being late, and
an auto mishap, one of those things
which go with the breaks, De-
spite what may or may not be
said about the' whole thing, it
would probably have been better

WHITCHURCH TAX RATE
HELD T0 1939 FIGURE
The tax rate for Whitchurch
township was struck on Saturday
at Vandorf at the August session
of the council at the same rate
as that prevailing last year. This
was accomplished despite the
fact that the government subsidy
is reduced a half mill, or about
$1,250.
"It would please me a great
deal if we could pare our
expenditures to take care of this
loss," declared Reeve Earl Toole,
and all members of the council
voiced similar sentiments. The
general tax rate is seven mills.
Acting on a complaint of a
ratepayer, the council instructed
the constables to forbid Sunday
dancing in public halls.
Wm, Hunt complained about a
blocked tile drain, on his farm
which he claimed was the prop-
erty of the township, having
been put down about 50 years
ago. The council promised to
investigate the matter. -
The constables will be notified
that council will not be respon-
sible for any more dragging for
bodies of drowned persons, and
when such a situation arises the
matter shall be referred to the
county. The decision was made
when the council paid for the
services of several men who
aided in dragging for a bodv at
bill
was $20.
"At that time we scarcely
knew our liability." said Reeve
Toole, "and wc took the human
view of the matter." The reeve
and councillors thought it should
be a county matter, or the liabil-
ity of the people concerned.
All able-bodied men should

"Well, my dear Tiny," Young
Chips, the Chickadee, said to his
friend, the little Wood Pewce,
"you're certainly doing your bit."
" "How do you mean?" inquired
Tiny.
"You've been singing steadily
since early morning," said the
Chickadee. "That 'dearie* call of
yours is one of the very few
sounds .I've heard in the woods
Ihese August days. Yesterday I
heard you and Mrs. Pewce
singing to each other right up
until dark. It makes me feel
that the woods are not deserted."
"I'm glad you enjoy our sing-
ing," said the little olive-green
Flycatcher, who looked so much
like ihc Phoebe that it was hard
for the young Chickadees to tell
them apart, except by their size.
"I've also enjoyed hearing both
your whistle and your cheery
*chick-a-dce-dee-dee.*"
"Oh, we always sing a little —
but wc certainly don't keep it up
like you do.*'
"Hello, Pop," a young Chicka-
dee called out as he alighted in
a small cedar tree. "We've been
up to the pasture and we were
flying around with some Gold-
finches."
"I'll go back with you to see
j them again. Junior, if you'll take
me to them," Young Chips said.
"I wanted to talk to them about
organizing a club of small birds
to study about Hawks and their
habits. I think — in fact, a num-
ber of us feel— that it would be
valuable to know more about our
enemies and then we would
know better how to cope with
the dangers. It will be chiefly
for the younger birds, of course,
but some of the more progress-
ive of the older generation will
have to help."
"Mercy, what in the world is
that Crow setting up such an
awful din for?" ho asked n
moment later, as the two Chicka-
dees neared the edge of the
woods near the pasture. "That
cawing is simply deafening."
"That's been going on all day,
more or less," laughed Junior.
"And I know why. It's a young
Crow, of the second brood, and
he's having a big argument with
his parents. They want him to
feed himself, and he was equally
determined that they would keep
on feeding him. And today his
mother put her foot down and
said it had got to stop and thai
he could caw himself hoarse, but
that he'd have to get his own
meals."
"And did he?" inquired Young
Chips.
"Not yut, but he will," pre-
dicted Junior. "He was weak-
ening fast a while ago."
"Here we are at the pasture
hunt for the ColrHinthte. "f
didn't like to ask Mm. It fceeim-d
such on ugly bird hi Ct/Ffif^rl*'*"."
"No — wor>e Hum ihfirf *-■« bin

young Chickadee, instead Of -an]

missing Laking on my all-star
team. Well, I apologize, as bak-
ing certainly deserves a spot on
any man's team. As for my
selection of Thompson, he cer-

theHRedmen. Thus, I picked him,
altbo' 1 don't think he is any
better than our own Peters.

With regard to the catcher's
berth the picking of Crawford I
think, and I'm sure 'Down the
Centre" does too, was a real
blunder (as big as me leaving
Laking off the team) as both
Echlin and VanZant showed
heads and shoulders above the
Forester all season, and 1 know
for a fact that Van's batting is
.400 or better.

Tuesday nite the Hillers put j
the finishing touches to the col-

thus earning the right to meet
the Redmen in a series that
should be a real hummer.
The Barrie clan fielded well,
and had to, as the Hillers ham-
mered Couse hard and often.
They would have run up a real

The Women's Association of
the United church will hold a
baking sale on Saturday after-
noon, August 24, on Mrs. W.
Davison's lawn, in front of the
barber shop. The sale will begin
at 2 o'clock D.S/T. There was a
great demand for the baking at
the last sale so the ladies of the
Church are urged to bring their
contributions to the Sale.
The choir of the United church
gave a splendid selection during
the Sunday morning service on
Sunday, August 11. Mrs.
Whipple, who is visiting her
mother, Mrs. J. H, Prosser, sang
beautifully an inspiring sacred
solo. Tho service was well at-
tended by summer visitors and
cottagers, who are always most
welcome.
The Keswick branch of Ihe
Canadian Red Cross sponsored an
amateur contest, conducted by
Allan Savage of Toronto, radio
announcer. A very splendid
concert of contest contributions
formed the first part of the
program, together with humorous
contests, conducted by Mr.
Savage in his exciting and
winning way.
There was a pie eating contest,
a cereal eating contest, a balloon
blowing contest, a husband call-
ing contest and a pop contest, all
of which were very entertaining
to the audience and lots of fun
for the participants. An orches-
tra, under the leadership of
Gordon Billings of Newmarket,
relayed several numbers at the
beginning of the program which
wore much appreciated. "Scotty"
Clifford contributed humorous
numbers as well as "Carry On".
Everyone enjoyed his selections
very much.
The winners in the amateur
contest were: Miss Eleanor War-
riner, Toronto; Miss Bernico
Craig. Toronto; Master Roderick
O'Connor, Watertown, New
York. Miss Warriner did tap
dancing to Scotch tunes and
sang Annie Laurie. Miss Craig
played the accordion and sang.
Roderick O'Connor sang.
The judges" were" Mrs." W. E.
Morton, Mrs. J. R- StaUard and
Mrs. J. E. Nesbitt of Newmarket,
and Mr. Carl Morton and Mr.
Sheppard of Sutton.
Miss Phyllis Kitely, Sharon,
won the first prize for the lucky
admission ticket, and Kenneth
Shaw, Sharon, won second. The
third lucky admission ticket
prize, which goes to the person
holding ticket number 861, is
still unclaimed.
Mr. J. F. Kavanagh of Queens-
ville conducted a splendid auction
sale of a large number of articles
which had been generously do-
nated.
The orchestra, Mr. Clifford, and
Mr. Kavanagh kindly donated
their services to the- Red Cross.
The committee in charge was
helped wonderfully by Walter
Collins of Newmarket, Mr.
George Armstrong of Toronto,
Mr. George White of Keswick,
Miss R. VanNorman and Messrs.
Ma honey, Shortreed, Fisher,
Vaughan, Switzer and Vail,
and several others. The com-

to thank the ticket sellers and
all who, in any way, helped to
make the event so successful, and
also the Beach Association of

gratifying sum of nearly $300
was realized

(Barrie Examiner)
The softball all-star selections
for the county loop appeared on
schedule last week in The New-
market Era . . . Ab liutec of
Aurora compiled his ideas on the
subject while Ralph Adams of
Newmarket had a somewhat
different line-up . . . however,
we were surprised to be in
agreement with many of the
selections by the York county
scribes, especially those of Ab
Hulse, who has followed the
teams very closely.
For his first team Hulse chose
Echlin, Richmond Hill, for
catcher, Bennett of the same
team and Couse of Barrie as
pitchers, an infield of Peters,
Newmarket, first base, Saul,
Richmond Hill, second, Earl
Marshall of Barrie at short, and
Michaniiik of Aurora at third,
Cain, Newmarket, White, Aurora,
and Laking, Barrie, in the out-
field, with Ivan Gracey of Barrie
as utility . . . quite a smart
team all round, and his second
line-up in order had VanZant,
Niles, Shore, McMaster, Birchard,
Hilton, Hines, Gibncy, Tomblin*
son. Bulmer and Luck.
The Newmarket writer, Ralph
Adams, had a few surprising
selections . . . for instance he
completely omitted Harold Lak-
ing of Barrie and this big out-
fielder just happened to be the
leading hitter of the league with
an average of over .500 for 16
games and so far as we can
remember didn't have a single
error . , . Adams picked two
catchers, Echlin and VanZant,
then in order for pitchers he
chose Smith of Camp Borden,
Couse of Barrie and Niles of
Newmarket ... a great surprise
locally will be his selection of
Percy Thompson of Barrie as
the league's all-star first base-
man, since the latter only played
in about three of the 16 scheduled
games and is not considered a
regular by the Barrie club . . .
Thompson evidently must have

MEN EXPRESS THANKS
FOR COMFORTS SENT
i
The overseas comfort fund has \ Dvr. Wm. J. Raymond,
received the following appre- j C.T.C.C., R.CJt&G-v Series
been hot in the games he played
against Newmarket . . - com-
pleting the infield Adams picked
Saul, Hilton and Michaniuk, and
in the field, Gibncy, Miller of
Camp Borden, and Tomblinson
, . . for reserves he selected
Marshall of Barrie and McComb
of Aurora.
The first place we disagree
with Messrs. Hulse and Adams is
catcher, and we pick the veteran
Ellsworth Crawford of Mid hurst
Foresters for that position ...
Crawford had a fine year both
at bat and receiving ... he
was over .300 with the willow,
and was a more dangerous hitter
than either Echlin or VanZant,
at the same time being quite
their equal in fielding . . .
Harry Couse was the class of
the pitchers, and how these
southern scribes can place him
second after hts great record of
wins and low hits is more than
we can understand ... we
agree with Hulse on his selec-
tions for first, second and short —
but not at third . . . Steve Hines " G ,Y e . me _ tna * helps us all a bit l

of Barrie had quite an edge on I
Frank Mfchaniuk at third . . .
the latter had a slightly better
batting average but Hines was
far and away the better fielder,
while still compiling a .400 mark j
at bat. '
In the outfield we agree with j
Hulse on the selection of Laking
and Cain, but would add Arnold
Tomblinson, the powerhouse
slugger of the Newmarket Red-
men, putting Wilf White of
Aurora on the second list along
with Fred Norris of Barrie, a
smart fielder and .350 batter, and
"Joint" McComb, leading batter
of the Aurora team . . . Ivan
Gracey. who played every posi-
tion this season, is a cinch for
the utility spot . . . elsewhere
on this page we present the com-
plete list in tabulated form . . .
