Forrester. Editor -- -- New windows - do they suit? Last Saturday it was our first introduction to the new windows from an inside view in the Orono Town Hall. Over the winter the Board had the new main hall windows installed at a cost of somewhere in the nieghbourhood of $16,000. Certainly they are excellent windows but from our viewpoint viewpoint the aluminizing of the windows has sterized the interior of the building. Naturally they are more heat efficient which no doubt was one of the main purposes of the new installation. But they are not in character with the rest of the building which was erected in 1898 and which has been maintained in excellent excellent condition for its age over the years. The repair of the old windows likely would be expensive but so was the new aluminium installations. The building has been given a heritage designation through a recommendation of the LACAC committee and through the final decision of council. Where was the input to carry on with the reasoning and ideals of that particular designation designation and what really did it mean, if anything. What has been done can not really be undone but something more in character would have been more fitting especially since the Town Hall does carry a heritage designation. Incidentally the old windows, some ten sets, did sell at auction on Friday for $110.00 per round top and two casements. A point well made Jean-Michel Komarnicki of Little Avenue, Bowmanville, is to be commended for his expression of his viewpoint and concern concern of a general public nature. Council has been considering some form of control that would eliminate some concerns being expressed as to the number of people living m single family residential units. It is a concern that has been coming out of the Courtice residential area where, apparently, more than one living unit have been developed within single family residents. One consideration for council has been a definition of a family unit and the possibility of reducing the number of unrelated persons to a minimum number. Komarnicki suggested that to define the family unit was a matter of discrimination and it was his suggestion that all reference as to a family unit be eliminated from all Town bylaws. bylaws. He said there were other ways to control the number of people living in a housing unit. He said if a housing unit has sufficient sufficient space to house a particular number of people then it was irrelevant how these people were related. He said the personal relationships should not be of concern to the municipality or neighbours. 1 Komarnicki said there was good and bad in all cases, "and I have lived beside all of them", he said. The speaker is iri accord with proposed provincial legislation legislation which would take away from municpalities the authority to pass by-laws restricting the number of unrelated persons who çan live in the same house or apartment. It was great to hear someone express such concerns as expressed expressed by Momarnicki arid without having an axe to grind. titled, 'From Hosanna to Jesus' Death'. This was a joint service and was well attended. A service of Drama through Symbols. The Passion Passion Story - through scripture and symbol. This service was very different different and most effective I am told. One of the highlights of the service service was special music, by Brad and Chad Switzer, Don Peddar, Glen Foster, and Bryan Ransom who sang, "Were you there when they Crucified my Lord?" Special music was also played by Bernie Martin and Jennifer MacIntyre MacIntyre on their hammered Dulcimer instruments. On Easter Sunday 1 morning a perfect Easter day, there was a fine attendance with several visitors. The choir sang the beautiful anthem "Alone" accompanied by Mrs. Fern Foster. Later they favoured us with a second number "Ten Thousands Angels." Kendal News The glory of our King was seen when he came riding by and all the children waved and sang Hosanna, King most high, The glory of our King was seen when with his arms stretched wide To show his love of everyone, Jesus was crucified. The glory of our King was seen on the first Easter day When Christ rose up, set free from death, to love, to guidd, to stay. Margaret B.

The Easter Sermon was entitled, "An Incredible Experience." Some of the new hymns tell the Easter Story in most beautiful words for example, "Thine is the glory risen conquering Son endless is the victory thou o'er death hast won." Ml A man met a Newfie, "What do you do?" I am. a hartist." "How long have you been a hartist?" "Two years, sir." "How old are you?" "Thirty-eight." "What do you draw? ' ' "Me, unemployment." At church we sang the great hymn Of triumph, "Crown Him With Many Crowns." As we sang I couldn' help thinking thinking of a boy born 150 years ago who loved to sing. His name was George Elvey. He lived in Canterbury, where he and his brother were in the cathedral choir. Nothing thrilled George so much as the wondrous music that pealed forth from the great pipe organ. Perhaps it was as he sat listening to it that he made up his mind he would one day be a great organist. Such were his gifts, that by the time he was nineteen, Queen Victoria appointed appointed him to the Royal chapel at Windsor Castle. Yet, despite his shining success, George's life was almost unbelievably tragic. He lost his young wife after 15 happy years. He married again, and nine years later his second wife died. Then his beloved son, a young man of 24 died - and, as if all this was not enough, his third wife also died. How strange it is that George who knew so much sorrow, should have given us one of the most joyful of tunes - for it was he who wrote the matchless music for the verses we sang - 'Crown Him with many crowns, The Lamb upon the throne; Hark, how the heavenly anthem drowns All music but its own... From the Friendship Book by Francis Gay The workd never grows old as long as there are children in it. I like the story of Bobby, who was off school recently with mumps. Most of the time, he looked looked from his bedroom window at the bare, leafless trees in a park across the road. "What are you thinking about?" his mother asked one day. The child replied - "I was just thinking how silly trees are to wear, their clothes in summer and take them off in winter!" I'd never in all my days have thought of that! • My cousin when .a little lad went to Saskatoon Exhibition. He said, "I've been trying to think why a cow has four teets. I know, one is for rrlilk, one is for cream and one is for buttermilk, but I can't think what the fourth one is for." Character is like the foundation of a house it i ■ • " iIn: suihv <•■ Oui I oui lias u11!leu the promise of the Resinreel ion, not in book alone, but in every leal in Springtime. Springtime.

This by a man teacher: In the early 30's I found myself teaching in a relaxed and relaxing northern community. What were my duties? They made no demands upon iriy time except that I teach their children. I guess I was very fortunate. It was a farming community community in summer, and a hunting community in the winter. Money was scarce in that depression time, but it would never have been too plentiful because the farms were rocky. Some fathers supplimented their income by working in a lumber camp in the winter. Others stayed home and cut pulp wood or, cordwood. Deer hunting provided food. Wolf trapping yielded bounties. bounties. One of my grade seven boys was a better trapper than many of the adults. Sometimes on a Satur-. day I would go out on the trap line with him. And when he was. ready to take the wolf ears to a near by town to collect the bounty quite often I was the one to take Him. One afternoon about two p.m. there was a knock on the school door. There was a small group of hunters, two of them trustees. "How would you like to close school early and go hunting with us? We have an extra rifle." I didn't need to be asked twice. On Saturday another chap and I went hunting. We. started out by boat, and soon edme to the spot where we would tie up. T reached over to grab a rock and tipped the boat! Down went tbe rifle I had borrowed. My friend held on to his. He looked, at me and said, "What are you going to do now?" I said, "I'm going after that rifle. I can't replace it. My cheque each month is $47.50 and I give $25.00 to the boarding house. I have $22.50 to last me a whole month!" My friend agreed to have a good fire burning. I peeled down to my 'long johns' and dove in. I found the rifle and sat down by the fire to dry off. In a few mintues a party of hunters came out of the woods baying baying like the'dogs they didn't have. They took one look at us and said, "Well, look at that! Here we go baying - and you two sit enjoying life by a blazing fire!"
