(144c) FOR SALE--GENERAL ELECTRIC RE- frigerator, good conditi bl A NEW ARENA ASSURED As a result of the generous response made by the citizens of Whitby, assisted by a few outside inter- ested parties, to the appeal of the Whitby Community Arena Board for funds for the erection of a modern, artificial ice arena, the latter should be in operation this winter. With over $52,000 now given or pledged, and with subscriptions still coming in, the success of the campaign of the past month or two would seem to be assured. A considerable amount is still required to reach the $100,000 objective, but with the financial foundations for the arena well and truly laid, progress towards the final goal should be fast from now on. Convinced that such an arena was a necessity to serve the needs of a growing town and the surround- ing district, the board was formed. Its personnel in- cluded F. J. McIntyre, as president; His Honor Judge J. F. MacRae, Norman Irwin, David Cuddy, Q.C., Don- ald A. Wilson, Mayor Harry W. Jermyn, Gordon Mec- Mahon, president of the Kinsmen Tlub, and T. Morri- son, and a decision was taken to launch a campaign to raise $100,000. It is noteworthy that members of the board set the pace by going out themselves to secure subscriptions, later calling in some most aggressive canvassers who did an excellent job. The mayor and" council proclaimed June 8th to 12th "Arena Week" in Whitby, and a special committee with Judge MacRae as chairman was named to conduct a complete canvass of the town, which was done with very satisfactory results. The donation by Mr. Samuel L. Trees of a large and very valuable and central piece of land for a rink gave impetus to the campaign and the board promptly expressed its appreciation to Mr. Trees for his gift, which included use of another portion of his land, free of charge, for parking purposes, as long as he owns it. The action of Whitby Kinsmen Club, owners of the present arena which they purchased and renovated at a time when it looked as if the town was going to be without it, in turning the building over to the board for the amount outstanding against it, has also helped a lot, for the structure is now being advertised for sale and it will be demolished. Next move is to get the new arena started, and plans for this important step are now . under way. Builders have been called in and plans of rinks that might be suitable for Whitby have been examined. The record of progress to date on such an important project is a very creditable way the community spirit. ome and reflects in no small It would be fine if the $100,000 was in sight be- fore a building is started. It would be even better if this amount could be oversubscribed so that there would be a little working capital on hand when the operating board to be set up gets started. Stratford On Crest Of Publicity Wave STRATFORD, Ont. (CP)-The Shakespearian atmosphere which has surrounded Stratfopd since its founding is being cast aside briefly this month when the city cele- brates its 121st birthday with an un-Shakespearian Old Home Week. Stratford got the Shakespeare tag when it was founded by the Canada Company, responsible for most of the colonization of south- western Ontario. Thomas Mercer Jones, a commissioner of the com- pany; is credited with naming it after the Warwickshire market town where the Bard lived. But between June 28 and July 5 Stratford, just as any other Canadian community of homes and service clubs, schools and factor- ies, is calling back its old friends and citizens to see how it grew from a hamlet of 39 to a manu- facturing city of 19,218. FESTIVAL FOLLOWS That will set the stage for the Shakespearian festival of Canada which will bring thousands here between July 13 and Aug. 15 to see some of, the theatre world's top stars. The festival has already brought Stratford world-wide pub- licity. Old Home Week visitors will find it a city of 39 industrial plants, dominated by furniture and fabrics manufacture. Stratford's industry, turning out everything from piston rings to steel culverts, began with a grist mill, its first plant. Stratford's citizens like to think of their park system as one of Canada's finest. Development be- gan 49 years ago and in subse- quent years municipal authorities called in top planners. One was F. G. Todd of Montreal who com- leted the Dominion government's ideau improvement plan in Ot- tawa and designed Winnipeg's As- siniboine Park. The Todd plan centred "on the Avon river with a riverside drive. Through the years gifts of prop- erty have been added to the sys- tem until now the park area totals 125 acres. BEAUTIFUL GARDEN A feature of the system is the Shakespearian garden, where flow- ers mentioned in Shakespeare's lays grow alongside North Amer- ican varieties the Bard never heard of. Four years ago the Sons of Eng- land across Canada gave Stratford a bronze bust of Shakespeare by the Canadian sculptor, Cleeve Horn and it was unveiled in the garden. Strangers to Stratford will find BIRTHS Whitby, Windsor Families Joined Local Wedding A wedding of Windsor and local interest took place in the Church of St. John the Evangelist, Whitby, on June 20, when Marion Isabel, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John W. McDonald, Palace Street, became the bride of Mr. Peter J. Hagarty, son of Mrs. 'P. C. Hagarty and the late Mr. Hagart o imdsor. Rev. V. Hickey officiat- ed. The bride, given in marriage by her father, wore a floor - length gown of white Chantilly lace over slipper satin. The redingote featur- ed a stand - up collar and was but- toned to the waist. Her finger-tip veil of tulle illusion was caught by a Juliet cap of satin, covered with tiny seed pearls, and she carried a cascade of American Beauty roses and baby mums. Miss Doris Legary, Reg. N., of Los Angeles, Cal, was maid of honor in a ballerina length gown of orchid net over taffeta with a cor- onet of orchid and green flowers and matching pumps. Miss Rose- mary Letersky, Reg. N., of To- ronto, was bridesmaid in a similar gown of pale green with matching eadpiece and pumps. Both attend- ants carried nosegays of baby 'mums in bronze and white. Mr. William Hagarty of Windsor, was best man for his brother and ushers were Mr. Alex McDonald, brother of the bride, and Mr. Wil- liam Pendergast, of Toronto. After the ceremony a reception was held at the Hotel Genosha, where the bride's mother received in a navy and white ensemble of Hucklebuckle weave with match- ing accessories and wore a cor- sage of pale pink rosebuds. She was assisted by the groom's moth- er in an old rose lace frock with matching accessories and wearing a corsage of pink roses. For the wedding trip to points east and the United States the | bride donned a two-piece linen suit {of cinnamon and beige tones with | | matching accessories and wore a | {corsage of yellow rosebuds. On their return Mr. and Mrs. Hagarty will reside in Oakville, Ontario. HISCOX--To Joan and Horace, the gift of a daughter, Deborah Joan, at the Oshawa General Hospital, June 21st, DEATHS GERTRUDE P. E. ADYE Many Whitby people learned with regret Monday of the passing of Gertrude P, E. Adye, mother of the Rev. E. Ralph Adye, of Col- lingwood, and for some years rec- tor of All Saints' Anglican Church in Whitby. She passed away at Collingwood on Sunday. She had visited her son here on several oc- casions while here. The funeral service was held in Collingwood on Monday and interment made in Hamilton cemetery. EDITH S. VANWYCK A Whitby resident for more than 20 years, Mrs. Edith C. VanWyck passed away at the Oshawa Gen- eral Hospital on Sunday. Mrs. Van- Wyck, late of 205 Byron Street N., was the widow of Rev. J. R. VanWyck DD, a former pas- tor of Bay City Presbyterian Church, Bay City, Mich. She had been ill seven weeks prior to her passing. Mrs. VanWyck was born Edith Miller, the daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Morton Miller, in Mark- ham Township. She was married in Toronto to Rev. J. R.. VanWyck and it was while she was a Toronto resident that she was organist at Carlton Street Presbyterian Church. Later she and her hus- band were to move to Bay City, Mich., where Rev. VanWyck had been called. In her lifetime she had taken the active part in church life that is the lot of a minister's wife. Immediately surviving is a bro- ther, Ralph D. Miller, of Brough- am. The funeral will be held tomor- Low at 1:30 p.m. from the Mec- the Sh peare atm e pre- dominant. Even the city's wards are named Falstaff, Romeo, Ham- let, Avon, Shakespeare, Juliet and Anne Hathaway. But to many Canadians, Strat- ford is associated with another kind of figure. It was here that the late Howie Morenz, one of Canada's all- time hockey greats, stepped out of junior hockey ranks where he was known as 'the Stratford streek." Morenz went into the big time and séored 270 goals between his National Hockey League debut with Montreal Canadiens in the 1923-24 season and his death in 1937.

In the last -election--June 27, 1949--a total of 4,951,076 more votes were cast than in 1900. There were 7,893,629 registered electors in 1949 and 5,903,572 of them voted. Based on natural population in- crease and immigration, prelimin- ary surveys indicated that there will be approximately 8,500,000 el- igible voters this year. HUGE INCREASE In 1900, a vear in which women had no franchise, the vote total was 952,496. The increase since then re- flects the extension of the vote to women, the heavy rise in the coun- try's population and generally-in- creased interest in government. In 1904, when the main election issue was the trans-continental rail- way problem, the' vote rose to 1,- 030,186. It jumped again to 1,173,- 856 in 1908, pee tariff problems joined with the railway, issue to sharpen voting interest. The thorny question of reciprocity with the United States p the voters out ain in 1911 and the vote total climbed to 1,307,528. Three factors in the war election of 1917--the proposed union govern- ment, conscription and the wom- en's franchise -- resulted in the sharpest rise in the popular vote up to that time. The ballots totalled 1,883,329, including some 250,000~or more soldier votes. Women generally voted for the first time in 1921 and their ballots swelled the total to 3,119,306--1,- 235,977 more votes than were counted in 1917. RATE SLOWED DOWN The rate of increase slowed down in the 1925 and 1926 elections, in| which the main interest stemmed from constitutional questions, trade and tariff matters. In 1925, the pop- ular vote totalled 3,168,412 and in 1926 it inched up to 3,273,062, Th depression years brought with them the complex problem of unemployment and focussed at- tention on Canada's domestic econ- omy. The popular vote climbed to 3,992,481 in 1930 and then swung over: the 4,000,000 mark for the first time in history in 1935, when 4,406,854 ballots were cast. In 1940, when the Liberal BOv- | ernment successfully appealed for re-election to carry on the war effort, a total of 4.620,260 voted.
