PAGE EIGHT w THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1947 + Duties, of Citizenship Outlined : 'To Home and School Council "Getting along with one's neigh- bours in broader sense i. civiliza- tion," was the theme of the address given by Mr. T. K. Creighton, K.C., MLA. to the Oshawa Council for Home and School Associations, in Centre Street School auditorium, Tuesday evining. Asserting that despite our great advances in science and along other lines, we have not learned the fundamental problem of living together in the devastated, stricken world of to-day, | this. Mr. Creighton stressed the 'point that enov-h good people of good principle, willing to assume the du- ties of humble citizenship of the world, would solve this problem. Some of 2 many duties of citizen. ship arc: .n unselfish attitude to society; taking an interest in public affairs; responsibility of obedience to the laws; acceptance of com- munity duties, such as serving on a jury; a sympathetic attitude to social problems; and leadership in our own humble way. Thus would the standard - citizenship which tradition has handed down to us be upheld, "Mrs. Creighton was introduced by Mrs. Uriah Jonc: who later an. nounced that a branch of the Can- adian Association of Consumers was being organized 'in Oshawa. Next week a "ooth will be opened in the downtown section of the city to-re- ceive the © mbershi. of the women 'of Oshawa. MA's. Jones requested that some of the women assist in Mrs. J. H.

GRAHAM By The Canadian Press Auckland, N.Z., Nov. 27.--(CP)-- The old saw, "beautiful but dumb," can't be applied to New Zealand's beauty queens. In fact a beauty contest in this Dominion is some- thing of a cross between a radio 'quiz, a' Rhodes' Scholarship selec- 'ton and a domestic science exam-~ ination. : That at least is the impression given by: the quest just concluded which was conducted primarily to raise funds to send food to Britain. The requirements which the judg- es hed to take into account were possibly the most comprehensive ever laid down for such a contest. They were instructed fto select a girl not only of attractive person- ality and 'appearance, but also one with cultural, artis sporting - and 'homemaking quali- fications. A talent for leader- ship was required as well as a good knowledge 'of New Zealand's his- tory, geography and cultural tradi- tions. In addition she had to be pritopee and have broadcasting and the ability to make im- promptu and set speeches and to meet people with charm and poise. $F) Nine Finalists . 'The contest, which raised over $40,000, attracted a.large number of entries. ~The candidates were narrowed down to nine district fi- nalists who were given an exhaus< tive series of-iests. Two of the pine finalists were Maoris one of whom was among the last three in the running. A Ent 'The winner, 21-year-old Mary Wootton, of Chirstchurch, will' vis- it Canada next year as part of her award. First she will fly from Auckland to England, where she will be given a screen test at the J. Arthur Rank studios and will have a wardrobe designed for her by Norman Hartnell, creator of Princess Elizabeth's wedding gown. On her homeward journey she will cross the Atlantic by one of the Empress liners of the Cana- dian Pacific Railway, and after touring the breadth of the Domin- ion, will board a plane at Vancou- ver for the flight back to New Zealand. Expenses of the tour will be paid by a group of companies bhcking the contest, and the winner has been given $800 for sundry expens- es, Grey Eyes, Golden Hair Miss New Zealand is five feet, |ing six inches in height, weighs 130 pounds, has grey eyes and long golden hair which she wears in a coronet braid. She has a radiant smile and a pink and white com- plexion, An enthusiastic member of the Christchurch Repertory Theatre, she has played leads in tic | several productions. She is a doc- tor's receptionist, and would like a stage career. To win the contest she had to pass a series of exacting and un- expected tests put to her by the judges. Candidates were sudden- ly introduced to a judge represent- ing the Queen (one of them lost her head completely and said "Pleased meet you"). They werg confronted with an immigrant coal miner anxious to hear the worst about New Zealands. liquor laws and the price of beer and with. the demund to make a speech on a radio hookup to the whole of the British Commonwealth, * 'They were asked to describe how they would prepare a meal if their future husbands unexpectedly brought an important client to din- ner when they had only some cold | mutton, a few carrots and some macaroni available. They had to be ready to give thumb-nail ac- counts of New Zealand to classes of schoolchildren in England and Canada. Photographs of the girls were taken in day and -evening dresses, but bathing suits were bar- red.

Little Glamor For Army Wife By ENID NEMY Canadian' Press Staff Writer Bdmonton -- (CP) -- There's no glamor in being a soldier's wife, sald Mrs. F. F. Worthington when her husband--Maj.-Gen, Worthing- ton, officer commanding Western Army 'command -- recently bade farewell to a.long army career. "An army wife is a profession Just 'like a soldier and it's tougher too because there isn't any glamor. But there are compensations--you make friends across the continent and travelling develops a tremen- dous love of Canada--it really is a lovely country." Mrs, Worthington was born Larry Gotham's Gaiety To Be Restrained Canadian Staff Writer New York--(CP)--Plans for cele- bration of New York's golden an- niversary next year have been shorn, of glamor, No "world-of-tol moving sidewalk will ulate up Park Avenue to transport myriads of sightseers viewing exhibits = com- memorating the 50th anniversary of fhe merging of the five boroughs comprising New York. Trey i Joned down the name of e celebration, changing it from "jubilee" to "anniversary", The Oxford Dictionary gives one definition of jubilee as "exultant Joy," while anniversary is defined as the more prosaic "yearly return of a date." : "New York will have fine, digni- fied celebration in keeping -with the times," said a member of a special mayor's committee which rejected the proposal to use 11 blocks of stylish Park Avenue to display some of the exhibits. The rejection followed a two- week-long = protest from business men, property owners and tenants of Park Avenue. However, there was a section of the city's 7,500,000 residents who wanted to undulate the avenue. Newspapers took for-and-against stands. The staid Times described the project as "comprehensive and boldly conceived." . But the World-Telegram crack- ed editorially: "Let's be our age; let's not be silly." It all started last month when Grover A. Whalen, of Mayor William O'Dwyer's Jubilee (Anniversary?) committee present- ed grandiose plans for a six-month- long exhibition including an in- ternational ballet and folk dance, festival, an international air expo- sition and a world fashion show. All these are approved. Whalen is an old hand at stag- glamorous affairs. He was president of the 1939-40 World's Fair on Flushing Meadows -- now the site of the United Nations As- sembly--and all hands agreed that it was a 'super-super spectacle. But it was a fin: flop. 'The uproar began when Whalen issued his plans for 1948. All is relatively quiet now with the $700,000 appropriation for the -| Park Avenue display chopped from t. the $1,836,000. proposed budget. Whalen hoped to show a profit of $1,913,250. . Meanwhile the intemational as- pect of the celebration has been highlighted with the . dispatch by the mayor, of a letter to George VI, stamped with the first cachet marking the event. The design of the stamir depiots the old Dutch Stadi-Huys where, 264 years ago, the act was passed that officially named the city jin honor of the Duke of York. Appropriately enough, the King ----an ardent stamp collector--also held, that title when he ascended the throne. CLOSE UP OF:-- The Peak District By ELIZABETH RICHMOND It has just been announced that Britain's London North Eastern : osop, Derby- shire. Now, Glossop is'the north- ern gateway to the famous Peak district' which attracts thousands of visitors every year. The Pear district! What a pan- orama of gorgeous, grand scenery these words recall to everyone who has: seen it. When you leave Glos- sop, Derbyshire's little cotton town where' calicoes are printed, you come to a 12-mile stretch of undu- lating road. As you drive along it you see in ture a world of mountain and gorge, moorland and waterfall and the still beauty of deep valleys. Everywhere the lights are accentuated--green and gold in the sunshine; ultramarine Four miles after you have left Glossop, after you have climbed nearly 1,700 feet above sea level, the road is joined by "the Doctor's Gate". This is part of an old Ro- man road and on a slope the re- mains of an ancient fortress ap- pear. A few miles away are two monoliths set in a massive stone. They are called "Robin Hood's Pickling Rods" after the famous outlaw, Robin Hood, who, says le- gend, lived in the forests here- abouts. Country to Explore Purther on when- you come to Castleton, ns in the Valley of Hope, look up and you will see the Castle of the Peak, the ruins of 'a Norman fortress built on the sum- mit of a precipice. It was put there by the family of, Peverels who ac- quired these lands from William the Conqueror. In Castleton itself there are wonderful caves to ex- plore and here, too, is the Blue John Mine, famous for a spar or rock coloured in streaks with pur- ple like amethysts and yellow like topaz which is made into orna- ments. Great hills or tors, as they are called in this part of the country, overhang the winding road that leads to Buxton, a gay, spa where centuries ago, Mary, Queen of Scots stayed for her health. To-day Buxton has charm- ing winter gardens and a palatial Pump Room where you drink the Spa water. One of the roads from the town, by the way, leads to the "Cat and Fiddle," a tiny inh which is also the highest in England. In the neighborhood is Chats- worth, the finest private home in England, owned by the Duke of Devonshire. Standing in a 10-mile park, approached by a lovely little three-arched bridge, this great house is famed for its pictures and its gardens. And what amazing gardens they are, with their vari- ety of plants--English gardens, French gardens, Italian gardens, and a fountain which throws its water 260 feet high as well as a cascade which falls 60 feet. Merhories of Dorothy Vernon A few miles away is one of the most romantic spots in Britain -- historic Haddon Hall, home of the Duke of Rutland. Incidentally this part of England is known as "The Dukeries" because so many dukes live there. Haddon Hall has a minstrel gallery and a dining- room with an exquisite orle] win- doy and over the fireplace are carvings of the heads of Henry VII and Queen Elizabeth, It was in the reign of Queen Elizabeth that the beautiful daughter of the house, Dorothy Vernon, fell in love with Sir John Manners, a member of the Rutland family. But their fathers were enemies, so Dorothy is said to 'have eloped through a beautiful carved doorway at Had- don Hall which has been known ever since as "Dorothy Vernon's Door." The lovers married and the fig- ures of their four children are to be seen in Bakewell Church, where they themselves were buried. In Queen Victoria's reign their coffins were opened and in Dorothy's hair six brass pins were found.. Every year, ro tic-minded tourists make pilgrimdges to Bake- well to see these monuments and the rare natural charms of this pleasing little town in the heart of Peakland.
