In opening his ~address, Gordon Wright quoted a definition of "Reâ€" creation," which he felt covered the meaning as it applied to Communities Activities work. "Recreation," definiâ€" tion said, "is what you and I choose to do in our spare t.me, out of which we get much satisfaction." Referring to the strain of. modern industry and work in these days of mass production and machine efâ€" ficiency, he showed that the monotâ€" ony of most presentâ€"day work deâ€" manded decided ‘change and interest.

In closing he complimented Timâ€" mins on the scope of its drama and handicrafts. "‘Take in everybody!" was his advice, The inspiring address in which Dr. J. B. McClinton moved a vote of thanks to Prof, Henry for his address was another feature of the evening. Among those at the head table were Mayor J. E. Brunette, Counciliors, W. Roberts, L. DelVillano. Philip Fay, J. E. H. Chateauvert and J. P. Bartleâ€" man, and members of the Timmins Community Activitiee Committee. The speaker made a special plea for increased attention to the young people just leaving school. Too often they seemed to be forgotten prople, yet they needed recrasion 2= much as anyone else. but were not so easy to come forward with their requests. In the introduction to his inspiring address, Prof. Henry, who has spent many years in service in the United States, explained his return to his homeland of Canada. In addition to a nostalgia for this wonderful province of "two million lakes." charming scenery and remarkable resources, he felt the growing conviction that Canada is on the verge of the greatest development. The necessity for trained elders was also stressed by Mr. Wright. A. A, Rose, principal of Timmins Hi‘gh and Vocational School, expressed the thanks of the gathering for the able address of Mr. Wright. \ Touching on Canada‘s achievements during the recent war, the remarkable progress made in medical and other sciences, as well as industrially, Prof. Henry voiced the opinion that Canaâ€" dians at home do not scem to appreciâ€" atse the potential â€" greatness of this Dominion. Referring to Child Welfare, Workman‘s Compensation, Mothers‘ Allowances, the .physical fitness proâ€" gram. and Oother forward plans for social welfare, Prof. Henry could see this country marching right out in front of real world progress. The speaker quoted from the boock. "Canada, the Pnknown Country." by the Canadian author, Bruce Hutchinâ€" son, to show how imper{fectly Canaâ€" dians in general understood and knew their country and the great destiny that beckoned. A vivid. picture of life today and one hundred years ago was given by the speaker to indicate the new approach to life that must be made. In the older days it seemed to be possible to mix fun with the work, but now fun and work seemed to be separated comâ€" pletely, This was particularly‘ true in the cities, where complexity, congestion and anonymity reigned. The tension and tiredness of today was more nervous than physical, the speaker suggested, and the need for reâ€" creation was the more imperative. There was a decline in famly life of the restful and reâ€"invigorating typ of former days, due to congestion and other causes, Accordingly, the neeq for recreation was a vital one, and Communities Activities Committtes had a wide field to cover. Professor _ Henry stressed. threoe special pointsâ€"the importance _ of citizenship participation in the comâ€" munities activities,, the interpretation of recreation and what it does, and the need for leadershin training. He suggested that the ordinary people of each neighborhood should be consulted as to the forms of reâ€" creéation â€" they desired. Recreation should be for allâ€""for everybody, from the kindergarten to old age," he said. He added a word or two as to recreations that had been inaugurated. with suceess. for the older folk, as well as for the young. In touching on the need for leaderâ€" ship training, Prof, Henry quoted from incidents in his own experience to prove the value of training as comâ€" pared with the untrained effort. life today and one was given by the the new approach THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Was uvil 10« Lus oupening migit and his nusic was enjoyea y ali. in Ooccasivhn HMHenry n mseil sitpped Guwn ime platiorm to dead the group 11 a rousimng Pau Janes. ne comunise pans to make ‘lien Town a weekly affair. panding, more space will have to be provided and the comumittce in charge is at present try.ng to secure addiâ€" tional accommodation.
