Oklahoma Booked To Open in London Out of a Pan-American liner ar- rived at London Airport stepped four attractive young women, and one of them -- blonde Marianna Peterson, in point of fact--promptly said "Blimey." She had learnt the pronouncia- tion of this good old Cockney ex- pression from a London fellow- passenger, and saved it for use as a first greeting to Britain. The party was the advance guard of the great Broadway success "Ok- lahoma," which, after a week in Manchester, will come to London's historic Treatre Royal, Drury-lane. It replaces Noel Coward's music- al romance "Pacific 1860," which did not draw London in the way that was expected.

T. Darnell of Whitby was the guest speaker at the meeting of the Harvey-Hunt Missionary Aux- fliary of Simcoe Street United Church Thursday evening in the church parlors. As it was the Aux- iliary's 23rd birthday, Miss Hazel Waring sketched its history briefly and at the lunch after the meeting a birthday cake was included.

Pass a Schoolyard in Oshawa Then Go Pdst One in Greece EDNA JAQUES Every day of the week we pass & school yard on the way to work and every day of the week we marvel at the flash of bright colors in the girl's dresses and head shawls... the twinkle of clean, bare legs as they play ball ... the abounding energy of small girls who slip around tagging each other ..., whispering behind cupped hands . .. laughing over some schoolgirl joke. The tiny ones bring their dolls to school lovingly clasped in their arms, little boys bring small woolly ani- mals with pink tongues, 'or tiny plastic toys. They 'skin the cat' on the limbs of trees, walk the fences; play base- ball or chase each other around from sheer animal spirit. Every time. we see them son.ething big rises in our throats, they are so beautifully young, and full of life. They are so clean and well fed and sturdy, and you say to yourself, "This is Canada, this is our future, these are Canadian kids." A school-yard in Greece wouldn't look like that. No, it wouldn't look like that at all. 'I'he children would be half starv- ed and too listless to run or play. Their legs would be spindly and bent from rickets, Their eyes would be too big for their faces and most of them would have running sores, ugly red-looking blotches on their bodies, and decayed teeth, They would be clad mostly in rags that would flut- ter in the chilly wind making them look like small scare-crows. There would be a lump in your throat when you looked at them too, something that choked you and not a nice, happy lump at all, but something that choked you and made you kind of ashamed. These are the little chikdren of Greece, the outcast and the forsaken, the unfor- tunate ones who were born on the wrong side of the Atlantic, The sight of them would break your heart, the sight of thousands would just about kill you. There are 375,000 orphaned child- ren desperately in need of food, clothing and medical dttention. Hunger, sickness and poverty are universal. There is still time to save them but only if we send help now. The answer rests with you. There is no hope for them unless yo help with your dollars. It's such a little thing to do. Gifts like these cannot be measured, and no one can foresee the infinite good your dollar will do. Your contribution is the tiny ma- gic key to a child's grateful heart, and will go for medical supplies. All these supplies. will be purchased in Canada, and shipped to Greece through the facilities of the Cana- dian Red Cross. In Greece today there are two million under-nourished children, 500,000 tubercular cases, 50,000 dis- abled veterans, and two million ma- laria victims. If your children are well fed and husky, then in gratitude for it, send a bit of money to the Canadian Re- lief to Greece Appeal in your own community or to any Branch of the Royal Bank of Canada. You'll feel better after you've done it.

Because measles do not make children extremely ill or uncom- fortable during the time they are stricken, it is sometimes difficult to keep children confined as they should be in order that they may come through without serious after effects. 1t is the complications that measles can produce that make it a serious, contagious disease. Ears, eyes, lungs, or heart may be weakened unless the doctor's orders are carried out implicitly. Medicatien and disinfectants of the finest quality are neces- sary for effective treatment of the disease, Purchase them from a trusted druggist.
