THURSDAY, MARCH 20, 1947 . THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE NINE Courtice Social And Concert Is Great Success day event full of fun and laughter and success. This was the first effort of the executive to raise funds with which to purchase equipment for the Sunday School--in this case for hymnals. The concert was in charge of Mrs. C. Penfound and her class of seniors. PF. Stirtevant, auctioneer, handled the sale of boxes in his usual able manner, and his method of playing one ardent purchaser against another produced much jo- vial banter, keen competition and satisfactory prices. 'The superintendent, Mrs. H. Her- ron, Mrs. Ed. Warburton and Mrs. G. Reynolds were in charge of the general arrangements pertaining to the social. H. Taylor, caretaker, gave splendid co-operation, and ex- pressed his desire to return his fee to some branch of the Sunday School. Eddie Warburton, chairman, opened the concert by calling on George Johnson to lead in the singing of well known Irisl: songs. Mrs. Penfound was accompanist for the evening, A piano duet by Miss Phyllis Adams and Mrs. Penfound followed, Howard Foley, Bowman- ville, caused many hearty laughs at his rendition of "The Baseball Game", some Irish jokes and his encore. Master Grant Herron fav- ored with a plano solo entitled "The Soldier". Mrs. C. N. Fulton was her' own accompanist while singing "O, Danny Boy" and an en- core. Barry Johnson's violin solo, "To-ra~lo-ra" brought forth a steady demand for an encore, and he obliged with "Pop Goes the Weasel." Mr, Foley again enter- tained, this time with the warning poem about bugs and germs getting us no matter whether we eat or drink--or don't. Heartily encored, he returned to amuse by imperson- ating a child, a young girl, a min- ister and one who stuttered -- all trying to recite "The Charge of the Light Brigade." Wm, Gearing's solo, "A Little Bit of Heaven" was enthuiastically received, and was followed by "Anchors Aweigh!" Earlier in the evening little num- bered paper shamrocks had been given to the unwary, who at this point in the program began to feel uneasy as the first number of a quiz was called to the front. Vie- tims of stage fright who just couldn't 'think aright were penaliz- ed. Naturally, such penalties as walking around the room with a potato one one's head, impromptu singing, etc. caused much fun, and Betty Antil and Shirley Tait who Sondusted thg quiz handled it very Mr. Warburton, in a short ad- dress, gave thanks to all who had assisted in any way, and after prayer for the success of the soc- al, called upon Mr, Stirtevant to take charge. Noting the 8t. Patrick's Day de- eorations, Mr. Stirtevant amused with a few Irish jokes, spoke of the cause of the box social--the need of money with which to buy hymn bool began the auction with @ substantial donation. The junior girls had brought boxes, and these were sold first, naturally to the jun- for and intermediate boys. The senior boys and the men had many a lively verbal tussle before the boxes were all sold. Miss Shirley Talt's box brought the highest price and she received a lovely bou- quet of artificial pink daisies, the work of Mrs. Litz of this district. As the boxes were purchased each new owner had been given a pa- Jor of questions about the 17th of . When the answers were checked it was found that Mr. and Mrs. Warburton had won the prize, 8 pair of small potted shamrocks, and Dorothy Hockin and William Whitefield received consolation prizes. . A congenial time was spent while the lunches and coffee disappeared. By Sunday the various expense accounts had been received by G. Johnson, treasurer, and he was ab- le to inform the Superintendent that the price of the much needed hymnals was assured. February Farm Forum The February meetings of the Farm Forum were held at the fol- homes: Feb. 3 at Walter Rundle's, when the guest speaker was Charles Douglas, farm forum organizer for Nov Scotia, with 26 in attendance; Feb 17 at the H. P, Osborne home, with 18 in attend. ance. : Discussions included, prices on farm products as far ghead as poss ible to enable long term contracts. More than the cost of production to stay in business and if consump- tion cut because of prices and surpluses do accumulate, then let said surpluses be nandled through the F.A.O. On February 25, some 90 people enjoyed the potluck supper in the Sunday school at Ebenezer. Spec- ial guests were Mr. Pergus Mutrie of the Canadian Broadcasting, Mr. Ralph Staples, Miss Ruth McKen- zie and Miss Fanny Galway of the Naitonal Farm Forum office. Dr, Wesley Neelands and Miss Norma Geddes from the Ontario office, Mr. Mutrie presented the part taken by C.B.C. in forum broad- casts. Mr. Neeland's, the patt take en by the Ontario office and Mr, Staple's the proposed book-keep- ing project which they hope will meet with approval. t Discussion groups proved that a small majority keep an account of expenses and receipts, during the year, but thought the book-keeping project esented earlier, might prove quite satisfactory if carried out. Musical selections were pro- vided by Messrs Wally McKnight and H. F. Osborne, on violin and piano respectively. Altogether a pleasant time was enjoyed togeth- er, despite road conditions, and the Toronto guests were delighted with their reception, as were the home folks with the talks given by the visitors.

On the lawn in front of the altar will be seats for 75,000 persons, 'arranged in semi-circular rows each with its own communion table, A model of the giant outdoor structure shows an architectur- ally-modern, 515-foot long altar topped by a 20-foot statue of the Virgin Mary, Tt contains a sanc- tuary, several vestries apd an ad- joining private chapel, Some 30 confessionals with entrances on the. ground level make up the front base of the repository, On the main stand are three rows of seats for cardinals, arch- bishops, bishops and lay digni- taries who are expected to attend. An elevated ciborium over the altar serves . as a base for the 113-foot tower made of pillars in the form of large superimposed "M's" for Mary. Above this, a 9-foot illuminated globe supports the statue of the Virgin. Arcades between the pillars form the upper back wall of the repository and are made up of a series of arches in which are en- cased the letters "M." At both ends of the arcades and at either side of the centre section are massive square pillars on which stand four, 16-foot statues of angels sounding trumpets, From the ground to the altar level, there is a rise of 18 feet of long, carpeted stairway, . The complete repository will be painted in white and blue, - A system of indirect lighting and the illuminated globe near the top will keep it lighted at night. Congress officials say materials used in the repository are being returned to the construction in- dustry after the congress has con cluded. It takes 337 pounds of coal to make a new refrigerator.
