The next meeting of the District Committee will be held on Monday, May 27th, ist, Thistletown Troop. It was Parent‘s Night at Troop Headquarters on Monday, April 29th. And so as to give the parents a chance to be on time the meetin, opened a little later® than usual. After Flagbreak Patrol Leader Tom Linklater assisted by Scouts Lorne Budd, Don Frazer and Jack Slack gave a very. interesting deâ€" monstration on signalling. Field Commissioner J. Aitkinson put on a game for the ladies. Acâ€" tually the game called for an egg which had to be carried on mouse. But we had neither the egg or the mouse. Instead we used a rope; tied a bowline knot in it, and in place of the egg we used a small ball, It was an interesting game to watch. Then came the Fathers Toronto and sitting on the floor they had *7 rileo A milk bawe rmom the Some fun. Try it some time. _ _ * Followmf‘ a Scout . competition &lmc. which by winning it gave the uskrat Patrol 25 points, Patrol Leader Bob Curtis, his Second Allan Armstrone, Scouts Jimmy Shea, J.

The Mothers‘ Auxilary had held a shower during the week, No it was not some one getting married. The shower was for usâ€"rather for our Camp. Cubmaster Miss T. Elâ€" derfield opened the gifts and Scoutmaster R. Leonard expressed our thanks and appreciation. It does seem as if there will be some kitchen fatigue this summerâ€" but anyway it will be made all the easier now.with all the gifts we received from this shower. The Scoutmaster then called on Mr. Shore, Principal of Humberâ€" view: school. Mr. ghore mentioned that over the years there were many new organizations that came to beingâ€"but the Scout Movement was one that meant a lot to any boy ‘and it was one organization that always carried on. The Disâ€" trict Commissioner also spoke briefly before awarding Second Class badges to Patrol Leaders D. Snider and Vern Edwards, Patrol Second Alan Armstrong, Scouts Jim Burgess and Bill Humphries. The Bronze Arrowhead was awardâ€" ed to Patrol Leader Don Snider and Patrol Second A. Armstrong. This is a badge of distinction and denoted the successful completion of a Patrol Leaders training course. The Carpenters Proficiency The Troop will"be led by First Weston Bugle Band. It is a. small band, with its musiciars becoming acquainted with their instruments. But cach bandsman will be doing his part to show that quality is as important as qyantit.\:. 2e ia'{ggé' was awarded to Patrol Leaders Tom Linklater, Bob Curtis and Tam Ashwell and to Patrol Second Harry Nickle. Patrol Seâ€" cond Don â€"Hendrick was awarded both the Carpenters and the Metal Workers ~Proficiency Badges.

First Weston Troop This Sunday, First _ Weston Troop will have its second parade of the spring. The Troop, together with First Weston Cub Pack, the Girl Guides, and the Second Wesâ€" ton Pack will parade to Westâ€" minster United Church on the occaâ€" sion of the Presentation of the Colours to Second Weston Westâ€" minster. The boys are making every endeavour to have a full turn out, because of another reason, 0câ€" curing during the same Churth Service. oo We have quite a hero in First Weston Troop.

At the close of the meeting, Doug dived into the hole, in an aneth. to rescue the scarf, Then poor Doug had to be rescued, He was stuck in the chairs. Several other boirs grabbed him by his proâ€" truding legs, and pried him out. _ les ‘becam hero, he ‘did d rerel of ind Oice:? sig that Dole During the business meeting that might, patrol leaders Art Elphick, and Bill Anderson, and E‘roop Leader Bruce Prentice were preâ€" sented with their Handyman‘s Badges.

Mahaffy, Anglican Adâ€" vance A%Peal campaign chairman for St. Mark‘s church, Parkdale, Toronto, ‘announced today that his church obtained $10,600 against its objective of $5,510, and that contriâ€" butions are still coming in ‘This is not a wealthy parish," said Mr. Mahaffy. "In fact, the money was ;rcccbud largely in small donaâ€" tion®." Rev. W. B. Jennings said ‘one girl working as a domestic gave $30 and several charwomen gave $30 each. "I am overwhelmed by this most gratifying and sacriâ€" ficing response to the n’le}?ea]." said Rev. Mr. Jennings. "The returns ’from the Sunday school and youngi children were amazing." Schoo ‘ch'rldren brought their war savings stamps and pledged their war sayâ€" ing certificates. One little girl from the Sunday school brought her total savings of 14 cents." This month the Honour Patrol Pennant was awarded to the. Moâ€" hawk Patrol. This patrol has been led by P. L. Anderson for the past mont{lâ€"lend lease from the Sea Gulls.

C. Moffatt, 120 King street., There will be a Boy Scouts‘ meetâ€" ini on Friday night in the church hall. There is room for a few more boys in this 3rd Weston pack. It seems an inevitable result, that following the climatic events leading up to and including Easter, a spiritual lull is the sequence. Therefore, it was especially timely last Sunday morning that we should be reminded of this, not as an inevitable result but a dangerâ€" ous one. The Lord urged His disâ€" ciples against their natural inclinaâ€" tions to " . . . launch out into the deep." So we too must step out in faith, having received the word of life unto everlasting salvation, and spread the good news, and be of service to our Master. We are useless to ourselves and others. when.we do not launch out in His strength, to be used for the extenâ€" zion and fulfilling of His Kingâ€" om. Weston Presbyterian On Mother‘s Day Sunday morâ€" ning it is our custom to observe the Sacrament, of Baptism, and this year our service will be more than ever in the hands of youth with the Church Parade of the Brownies, the Girl Guides, Wolf Cubs, and Boy Scouts. The new colours of the Second _ Weston _ (Westminister) Pack will be dedicated, and the flowers will be donated by the Junior Church in. honour of the Mothers. What are these fences and who has put them there you ask? We will answer the latter question first. God has put them there in order that you may avoid an Eterâ€" nity in Hell. Westminster United : In the evening the minister will begin a sefies on the Shepherd, Psalm, that little treasure that has meant so much to nearly three thousand years of worship. _ _ _ Members of the Fiftyâ€"Fifty Club are reminded of their meeting next Tuesday, and all parents and friends are invited to the Sunday School Parents‘ Night on the sixâ€" teenth. Moving pictures will be awarded to the winners of the Scripture Memory contest. Imagine in your mind‘s eye that you see ‘about fifty feet in front of you a gate and over that gate in bold letter is written the word hell, stamding out as a flame of fire. Between that gate and you are several fences which you must jur]v;p if you would reach the gate of hell. 1. The Bible: The word cf God. In which it says, ‘¥e must be born again," also "The wages of sin is death Lut the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. 2. The Cross: On which Jesus Christ the Son of God died for your gins and mine. "Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shall be saved." 3. The Blood of Jesus Christ: "This is what cleanseth you from all sin. 4. The Church: Instituted by God to herald forth the glad message of a free Salvation to all men. There are certain fences that a man or Wwoman must hurdle ere they reach the gates of hell. . 'f’he.names of these fences arâ€" rayed in front of you are: Weston Baptist Next Sunday D.V. the pastor will begin a sgort series on that wellâ€"known verseâ€"John 3: 16. This Series will be a blessing to all who hear, so arrange to be present at these services and bring others also, that they too may come to know the full meaning of that great verse, "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only beâ€" fntt,en Son that whosoever beâ€" ieveth on Him, should not perish, but have everlasting life, You who read this article are you building those fences that God has been gracious enough to put before you to save you from that 'Fam of Hell or are you jumping disdainâ€" fully over them to a Hell with the devil and his angels. Weston Pentecostal Central United _ + Three events of church and comâ€" munity â€" interest tnmgiud last week in Central Church. Gilbert Harding of the British Broadcastâ€" ing Company received an eager and a.‘pprociative hurlnfi at the men‘s club, when he spoke to them on Tuesdl‘y night on "The World at Peace." The address was compreâ€" hnesive, informinfi, provocative, yet seasoned wtih charity, witty, atâ€" tractive in literary quality and was intended, the speaker declared, to awaken us from he indifference toward the policief and acts of men and nations which inevitably lead to war. Mr. Pawson introduced Mr. Harding to the gathering which was under the chairmanship of Mr. W. O. White. Mrs. Stanley Leuty was soloist. Ladies of Group 3 of the women‘s association served supper. A capacity audience gathered on Wednesday night to hear the Leslic Bell singers in a recital.of choral music. Included in the sixteen numâ€" bers announced on the program and the unprinted encores were the anâ€" cient chant "Hospodi Pomilui," Chilean cradle song "Dormi Jesu," Tschaikovfiky’a "Legend," _ the "Song of the Archange!" by Tostiaâ€" koff, the old slave song "Sconâ€"A Will Be Done," "Dark Valley" by Ritterbouse, a "Fantasy on Stephen Foster Themes," the negro spiriâ€" tuals "Were you there when thefl erucified my Lord?" and "Lil‘ David Play on Yo‘ Harp." The warmth with which the audience received Mr. Bell and his choir was a fine tribute to their superb artisâ€" try. of the members of the board. Mother‘s Day will be observed at next Sunday morning‘s service. Central Church choir were the | guests of the official board on Friâ€" | day night when both hosts and | guests enjoyed a program which | included such diverse features as a | lecture on "Amateur Gardening" by | John S. Hall, known on the radio| as The Ontario Gardener, selections by Donald MacGowan, A.C.C.M.,| the admired and talented violinist, | and the clever "fantasies" of a most intriguing young magician, Jack Holland. At the close of the enterâ€" tainment refreshments were served in the auxiliary robm by the wives Continued from page 1â€" there is little room left in the buses for the working men and women of the area. Mr. Duffin cited this North York area as a case in point to support his argument for larger high school areas. This narticular area was not included in any high school disâ€" trict, he said, hence no one could proceed with a school. York County Council had set up a consultative committee and the committee‘s plan foy dividing the whole county into high school areas was now being considered by the county municipalities, who must approve it. The results of Mr. Duffin‘s survey. showed that at the present time, children from North York, with a population of 2000, were attending the already overcrowded York township high schools. Larger High School Areas ‘‘The North York problem is so urgent," he said, "that whether we get the rest of the county divided into high school districts or not, we must get that section formed into a district immediately.". «There are now 216 high «school | districts in the province and 80 nf‘ them supported high schools with | fewer than 150 pupils, The departâ€" i ment of education hoped to divide | the province into larger, districts so | that each school would have not | less than 200 pupils and prefernb?,v | 300. Only in units of this size, h-,‘ contended, could suitable courses He had already discussed the matter with some of the ratepayers affected, he said, and they were heartily in favor of action$ Plans of Department High School Problem 28 MAIN ST. N. Weston Music & Radio in agriculture, home economics and ] commercial subjects be set up. He argued for courses of this kind to | prepare rural boys and girls for | farming or for business life in their | own communities. He saw these courses as the only way to stop these young people leaving their) homes for the cities. > | Every rural high school, he held, should have an agriculture master as well qualified in his subject as any provincial agricultural repreâ€" sentative. He also saw need for a placement officer to assist in getâ€" ting graduates suitable local jobs. Mr. Worden, when asked about the conditions in the Weston high school, stated that the enrollment last year was only a little above average and that there were no evidence of such conditions as Rector; Rev.
