~t1 r VOLUME 92 BOWMANVILLE, ONT., THURSDAY, MAY 2, 1946 NUMBE -Translate Ne erges Speakq Another powerful voice heard at the Rotary Club, Fri to give impetus to the th which is more and more b impressed upon the public sciousness today, namely, the tional concern to give yout better break in preparing t for the tasks ahead. The sp er, Don Cameron, field super or, Provincial Board of Pa. Toronto, centred his rem about our former failure in sphere, which he termed, "co tive neglect" and which he ir ted could.so readily be char to "virile interesf." Never be has the world faced so critic testing time and "here and n was the opportunity and ob tion for each one of us to1 part in a national, moral, rea ament, was the summation most notable message. The Guest In introducing Mr. Camero was recalled by Bert Virgin he was guest of the Lions C February 28, with his chief, C George M. Dix, head of the Pa Board, and the speaker on tha casion. Veteran of World W from which he returned to e the Baptist Ministry, Mr. Car on served again in the late wa Chaplan R.C.A.F., with thec inal bomber squadron and on charge was called to service a present post.

Hence the message res: ing youth would reach the h of those who should bej greatly concerned and whosE fluence would broaden dow help those less fortunate in man relationships. Mr. Cam made a stirrming appeal for th operation of Rotarians in thei he so vividly, presented and cause he advocated. Warns of Neglect The speaker inspired im iate attention when he said neglect of youth was eveni destructive of world peace security than the disturbing putes arising out of the at secret. To substitute virile i est for inexcusable neglec young people, meant all the ference between hope and de in man's destiny in the new v era. And nowhere can that son be taken to heart at this moment than in Canada.

Attractive Store Windows Command Public Attention Soldiers' Day Fund For Friday, May 24th Approaching Objective Recent donations o! funds from community onganizations and in- dividuals have brought the total up to $3,204.30, towards the min- imum objective of $4,000 requir- ed to purchase presents to be pre- sented to each Bowmanville man and woman who wore the active service uniform in the late war. Friday, May 24, will be given over entirely to civic Welcome Home for Bowmanville's service person- nel. In order to arouse public inter- est in the occasion, the War and Civic Committee has arranged publication in this issue of The Statesman of the sports program for that day. They also wish it to be known that three bands have been engaged for the occasion, Bowmanville Band, Cobourg Kil- ties and Riverdale Silver Band, Toronto. There will be a gala parade headed by these bands leading to the general assembly at the High School grounds where the main program and sports will take place. It is expected thlat every citi- zen of Bowmanville of all ages will take part, secure flags, dec- orate windows, march in the par- ade, enter the sports and make it a day and occasion to be remem- bered and in honor of those who went out to defend our homes and liberty. Meantime, more funds are solicited. Donations should be left at McGregor's Drug Store.

Bickle -------------1 Launch Drive to Aid The Blind In West Durham The 1946 drive for funds in aid of the blind and those threatened by blindness in Bowmanville and West Durham was launched on Monday, so stated Mrs. Arthur S. Baker, chairman of the local com- mittee. All this week 50 willing workers will conduct a door-to- door canvass for subscriptions to the fund, and Mrs. Baker is con- fident that citizens will support and encourage these voluntary canvassers by contributing gen- erously. Seventeen blind persons in the district are being assisted through the efforts of the local committee for the Blind in addition to sev- eral prevention of blindness cas- es. The entire proceeds of the drive will be used to provide cheer, comfort, home training. embossed books, occupational training, employment wherever possible, relief for the needy, Christmas remembrance, home visitations, and many other wel- fare services to this group. Those who carry on the work of the Canadian National Institute for the Blind feel that they are bearing a sacred trust for all Can- adians who wish to help keep the light of the spirit burning in the lives of their less fortunate neigh- bors. The Institute exists to in- sure that those who are blind need not pass their days in idle- ness or lack fital interest in liv- ing. Surely citizens can be coun- ted upon to make this drive a suc- cess. Let us unite in a joint ef- fort and show our blind folk that their plight will not go unheeded Pre-school Tots Learn Mysteries of Fireworks Adults who have paused inr evening gardening work during the' past week to watch multi colored rockets burst and scattei a brie! brilliance over back yard and vacant lots, have had occasionî to recall their school days wheî fine crackers provided much fut on holidays such as the 24th o May.

From time to time mention will stu be made in The Statesman of the toi advertising merchants who de- th vote much more than ordinary Do attention to their window dis- se: plays. In langer centres the pre- fi v tentîous retail establishments bud- op get in important figures for win- cir dow dressings to support their pic general advertising and in doing ap gn add very mate1ial1y to the at- tractiveness of the communities la' they serve. The idea is one com- co ing into vogue in many smaller as towns. It is ail good business for go the merchant-artists themselves, co for the town and, it may be ad- .fig ded, for other business places as da we1l. Nothing is better calcu- or lated to stimulate business and ni community pride.In Walker Stores E In this issue we mention par- Si ticularly the displays in the win- tr dows of The Radio Shop and ar Walker Stores. For soe time u past the Walker Stores have made it a practice of changing displays four times a week. Manager Bill Steele, who is taking an active sp interest in the formation of a local cu Chamber of Commerce, states that pi his window displays, together er with regular advertising in The w Statesman keeps his five young iz lady employees busy serving the v interested customers who are h thus attracted to the store. Ti Of particular interest are the ol gowns and drapes worn by the fri inanimate mannequin duning each th week. This female form has coae di to be known as "the best dressed A figure in town" which is a good sh advertising by-line. And the pri- sc ces are shown which is also an to item of good merchandising. All that remains is to give her an o appropriate name, preferably not ai that of a movie queen for she le has the happy faculty of looking w chic without talking back. The ai surrounding displays are always c appropriate and in the cool and y' attractive interior, customers are served on the principle that they are always right, always wel- L come.

This ioney is being raised to carry on nhe Church's educational work in anada and abroad. The Church f England in Canada has been sked to raise $4,300,000. St. John's .

Jones, Secretary, Local 189) Norman Allison, president of Local 189, U.R.W.A., attended a meeting of the strategy committee n Toronto, April 28, along with delegates of 14 other locals in the United Rubber Workers of Am-r erica. Ivan Hobbs, vice-president nd Harold Henning secretary of Local 189, were observers. Mr Allison was also a member of the bargaining committee that suc cessfully negotiated the 7-poin program in Washington, D.C. which gave 100,000 employees in the rubber industry in the U.S.A îpproximately $60,000,000 i n crease in wages. These negotia tions were carried on without an strikes or shutdowns. As a mem hem o! the strategy committee iî Canada, Mn. Allison states tha up to the present we have bee unable to negotiate with the rep resentatives o! rubber in Canad on a satisfactory basis. On Ma 13th, ail organized rubber plant in Canada will have taken a strik vote and will be in a position t take strike action, if r'ecessar The deadline has been set fo May 27th at 12:01 a.m. Over 1,000 rubber workers a tended a mass meeting in Toron to on Sunday evening.

A large number of citizens interested in bettering the community were on hand to take part in the dis- cussion. Already considerable corres- pondence has been received in- quiring into the possibilities of setting up new industries in town. Unfortunately until the Chamber of Commerce is folnmed with an executive and a constit- ution nothing can be done about these queries. Walter DeGeer was nominated to be chairman of the organiza- tion meeting on May 21st. The Canadian Chamber of Commerce will provide the speaker which will be announced in next week's paper. All members took part in a very thorough discussion on the con- stitution. It was decided to adopt the rules recommended by the Canadian Chamber with certain changes to suit our town's con- ditions. These regulations will be presented at the organization meeting for consideration on May 21st. So far nothing has been done by the Committee to improve conditions in the town but it is generally felt that until a strong organization is formed that it is useless to start on any type of town planning program. The next meeting will be held Tuesday, May 7th, in the Council Chambers starting at 8 p.m. All interested will be made welcome. Legion Sponsors Dedication Service At Cemetery, May 19 At the regular meeting of the Canadian Legion, held Thursday evening at Union Hall, with Vice President A. J. Frank, presiding, the usual formal business, in- cluding initiation of new mem- bers, was set aside for two pur- poses: To make arrangements for the Memorial Program to be held at Bowmanville Cemetery, Sun- day, May 19, and to hear the speakers of the evening, Mr. Don- aldson, Director, Soldiers' Land Act and his assistant Mr. Bradley of Campbellford. According to present opinion prevailing it has been felt that too little general information has been given out in regard to both the Veterans' Small Holdings, such as are being built at the out- skirts of Bowmanville, and also the arrangements for soldier set- tlement on the farms bought by the government in Durham Coun- ty. Therefore, officials adminis- tering the Acts are addressing Le- gion meetings to make all details known. The speakers dealt generally with the terms and provisions co- vering each case and answered a series of questions which shed much light on the question. While no specific prices were mentioned as to the units of the small hold- ings, the general terms given were sufficient to enlighten those wish- ing to apply. All business in this connection must be taken up withn the regional office at Campbell. ford. Arising out of the general dis. cussion on the Memorial Service at the cemetery, May 19, a sep. arate story will be found in this issue of The Statesman giving the general outline of the plans de- veloped. The next meeting will be held in Union Hall, Thursday, May 9 at 8 p.m. Trafo un e - Un Toronto Features t Bowmanville Police .The trial o! the three ban] . robbers and gunmen who wer - capturedi at Kurv Inn, east c y Bowmanville, last September, b - local officers, is proceeding e n Toronto this week after repeate t remands.
