Of these ten original members every one is still in the club and as active as ever. Thererare now tsevptpty-five members and a long waiting list. When asked by the Times and Guide his reason for agitating a move such as beginning the Miller Athletic Club, he said, "The boys in town were not getting a chance to show what they could do in sport". Ten boys got together and held meetings in the cellar of Jimmie Austin's home at 13 Wind- all Street. This was on February 6th, 1939. The boys then acquired the Hall on Fern Avenue and now are in the process of building a thirty foot addition to this struc- ture which they hope to have com- pleted by the end of June. This is not just a seasonal Club but is most active all the year round. They enter teams in hockey, soft- ball and are now plannin an entry in fre lacrosse league, 5.A.L.A. This week for our biography we present one who was not born in Weston, but one who has made his presence felt in a remarkably short time, it is Lloyd Miller, president and founder of the Miller Athletic Club. Lloyd was born in Ottawa, and came to Weston six years ago. He is employed at the Red and White Store on Main Street North and has been there ever since he' first came to Weston.

LY. 7972 Man's liberty ends, and it ought to end, when that liberty becomes the curse of his neighbour. What should be the one and only true ideal of each nation? It's duty. It's righteousness. It's the law of Sinai. It's the law of Christ. It's purity of life. It's honesty of trade. It's absolute allegiance to truth. The description everybody "did that which was right in his own eyes" is rapidly becoming a national idea, is a description not of heroic freedom, but of modern anarchy. Some nations have a false idea of liberty. There is no ideal more grand and inspiring than that of true freedom. But what is freedom. It's the correlative of order. It's the function of righteousness. .Freedom is self-reverence, self-knowledge, self-control. Liberty is not the liberty to' do wrong unrebuked. It is not to do as we wish, but as we ought.. It is to listen to the dictates of reason. To be free, for instance, is not synonymous with robbery or wrong. To be free, as Milton said, is the same thing as to be pious, to be temperate, and to be magnaninious. He is a free man whom the truth makes free, and all are slaves besides. Britain gives to her people liberty that' awakes dhe envy of all those races who do not share our hltiod,, There, fore, the world hates us. Ours is a cause worthdighting for. T . ' Now, of course, so momentous a struggle makes extra- ordinary demands upon us. It could not possibly be other.. wise. A world catastrophe can only be averted by excep- tional effort and exertion. But a German victory would be fraught with such fatal consequences that no efforts can be considered too great, no sacrifices too severe, to ward off that disaster. For us the time has come when the great faetds press- ing home that we are citizens of the strongest and freest empire that was ever in' the world. It is our right and duty to carry liberty along with the Union Jackw: Oursris the honour of being citizens of the greatest, freest'and justest empire on earth, the home of generations of free men, the asylum of the oppressed. Yes, we are fighting tor the most sacred principles. The real question at issue is the question of Tight against might; of freedom against oppression; of (idealism against materialism; of the Christian law of civilization against all the savageries of a Kultur whichhas shocked the moral sentiment and roused against itself the moral indignation of the. world. That is, the inner meaning of this great controversy. We are not wrong in adopting as our own the motto of the ancients, Pro aris et focis, that is, in defence of one’s religion and family. We are fighting not only for our hearths and homes, we are fighting for our altars, for our holy religion, and for our God.

Through the haze of years, '%llh"ii"i'atritliliilir' memory takes us back to the days 's'mRm8MiilF when as tiny tots, it was "Mummy" who gave us a kiss when we fell and skinned a knee, "Mummy" who came to us when we wakened frightened during the long dark night, "Mummy" who gave us the nickles and dimes we demanded to keep us happy. In later years it was "Mother" who listened to our adolescent confidences, who gave us sage advice regarding high school problems and beams. It was "Mother" who walked with us through older years, comforting us in times of sorrow and keeping our minds on those things in life which are worth while and lasting. This dearest of friends deserves all our love, our loyalty and our praise. To pay tribute to those dear mothers who are with us, let us wear a colored flower next Sunday. For those who have passed on to their final reward, let us wear a pure white flower as a token of our love and affection. Honor Mother on Mother'st Day and all through the year, and let us echo the words. of that beautiful poem "Mother" by Edith M. Hollingworth: _ Mother.' What wealth of sound it holds, this sweetest 'name on earth, 'Tis that of woman glorified, made wonderful by birth, Upon a pedestal she stands, by reason of her name, No matter in what language said, its meaning is the same. We never can repay the anxious moments spent, The anxious hands which toiled for us, who were on pleasure bent. Don't let us wait to laud her deeds upon a slab of stone. Just tell her now. This is the time for letting it.be known. One mother only each one has, and years slip quickly by, We cannot always keep her here, however hard we try, But we can gently smooth her way, if we but do our share In making life a song for her, by thoughtful, loving care. So Mother's Day, this day of days, for her we'll set apart, In life or memory she will be enshrined within our heart. CHAS. E, .CRUSE Rev. J. Kingsley Joblin Comes With Highest Recommendation From Eminent Deer Park Pastor-Will Take Over in Mid June Re Apologize ,Victim of Malton Road Accident Was Favorite in, Neighborhood-s-Served in LaiGreat War With Mayor Day-lesion' of Weston For Over Twenty Years t ,. - "WEST YORK'S NEWSY WEEKLY" THURSDAY, MAY 9, 1940 KILLED Weston Mother's Day Charlie Cruse, as he was so well known all through the district, was a great friend to the children. His whole aim in life was to have and maintain a happy home for his wife and family, of whom he was so justly proud. Russell, writes, "He has more than once carried this congregation of 1890 members, during my illness,' w ith immense satisfaction to everyone. At the same time, his magnetic personality, eager work, ty.1d unusual wisdom have endeared him to all. He has been like a son to me, and the fact that his young- 1.2r brother is to succeed him here Is eloquent of the relationship. Mr. J oblin has been a colleague rather than an assistant." The people of Westminster are rooking forward eagerly to Mr. Joblin’s coming, knowing full well that with the enthusiasm of youth and the experience of his success- ful training he will be a decided asset, not only to Westminster, but to the town of Weston. [ , Early "Wednesday morning of last week a car driven by Wilfred H. Byron id Craydon Avenue, Mt, Dennis, allegedly, skidded, struck a cement culvert and overturned. just below St. Phillip's Road, near Weston, on the Melton Road. A large piece of cement off the bridge toppled over onto the car, pinning the owner, who was the se- cond occupant of the front seat, Chas. E. Cruse of St. Alban’s Ave., Weston, in the car. Mr. Cruse was dead when he was extracted with the aid of the Weston Voluntary Fire Brigade. _ Charles Edward Cruse was born in Oshawa, Ontario, and was in his forty-eighth year at the time of his death. He served overseas dur- ing the last war, from 1914 to 1918. He left Canada with the 169th Battalion and was transferred in England to the 116th Battalion. He was an employee of the Anthony Foster Company, Church Street, Toronto, for over‘twenty years. He married Miss Evelyn Williams, a native of England. The Cruse fam- ily lived on Lippincott St. in Wes- ton for some time, and seventeen years ago they moved up to tle St. Albart's District, in North Weston. Hog Production . Hog production and marketings in Canada in 1940 will be the larg- est recorded in the history of the industry. This forecast is based on the number of hogs on Canadian farms at December I, 1939, which totalled 4,769,600 eomjared with 3,568,600 at December 1, 1938.

Our last afternoon visit is to a prenatal case.’ This is primarily one of instruction. It is necessary that the patient understand the. importance of her health as relating to that of the new citizen, and be impressed with the necessity of close medical supervision; and also to teach, when the confinement is to be at home, the necessory preparation. _ Thus the day endg--but not the responsibility, for must beurpen for the phone-for the V.O.N., as you kno, a 24-hour service and after 5 p.m., of course, emergen must be’answered. So when you give your contribu1 Victorian Order work you know that you are helping to possible to carry JP this yery worthwhile work in Weston On making a phone call to enquire if any one has been calling for the Y.O.N.-we are given the message that Dr. ----qr- would like the nurse to ring his office. Clhis is done and having been given the name and address, also instructibns and a short history of the case, we proceed to make our second afternoon visit. This is a three-year-old child who has been in hospital two weeks, suffering from burns onhis arms and face. He has sufficiently recovered to be allowed fo return home but must have a daily dressing applied to the burned area. The mother assists us by holding this .child and in a very short time we have our dressings applied and held securely in place by bandages. A shining cake tin serves as a tray and we leave our dressings and basins neatly arranged and covered over with a towel (ready for the next visit). Here as in all our other homes a chart is left on which we have recorded the work done. When the Doctor visits the patient-he has this report of the nurse's work. So we leave our little friend knowing that in a few days we will have won his confidence and he will be waving his good-bye from his window. -- That the public may have a clearer conception of the diversity of services rendered, we have secured from Miss Kain, the resident nurse for Weston, the above outline of an average day's work performed by the Victorian Order. It is our policy to visit those in greatest need of nursing care first. So ourfirst visit will be made to a medical case. Here we give general bedside care and carry out the physician's orders. Our patient's wife is advised regarding the physician's orders concerning treatment and diet for the day. Our next visit is to a young mother and her day-old daughter where nursing care is given to both. The housekeeper in charge of this home is instructed in establishing and maintaining the necessary routine which must go on between the nurse's visits, Many questions of health are usually discussed concerning different members of the family. - It is the day for the customary visit to a chronic patient and this will round off the morning's work. These visits are weekly or semi-weekly as necessary, and this gentle, gray-haired old lady who has passed the three score years and ten mark, looks forward to them as one does to any break in the monotony of being ill. Our first visit in the afternoon is a post natal case where the patient was dismissed the previous week from nursing care. These visits are for the purpose of making certain that the routine established. at the time'of birth is maintained and ensure that the mother and baby fre making ty_ttisfactory progress. The work done by any benevolent organization such as the Victorian Order of Nurses, cannot be fully understood or appre- ciated by merely reading a table of figures. It is true that these figures may tell you the number of visits made by the nurse, but behind and the reason for them, is the-happiness or tragedy of human lives. Situations arise where understanding and kindness are needed almost as much as actual nursing care - We are often asked just what a Victorian Order Nurse does.
