TT hh, «0 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesdey, May 9, 1961 Ww seg TP Tributes To Mom I THINK MY MUM'S THE GREATEST BECAUSE . . . I know I can always depend on her when I need her. She may give me heck or lickings some- times but I know it's always for a very good cause. She's kind to people as well as animals and is ready to help them anytime. She keeps the house spic and span in winter or in summer. Mum likes birds, especial- ly budgies, and she taught ours to say quite a few words. She also likes the colors of white red and black and usually wears skirt and blouse although she looks good in anything. Her favorite flowers are red roses and we keep a lot of them in the house. She can play an accordion, organ, harmonica, violin as well as many other in- struments. She sings good too. She is a kind and gentle person not only to me but to the rest of the family too, as well as feed-| ing and clothing us. If we get into mischief or any sort of trouble Mom knows| what's good for us and teaches| us right from wrong. She likes going to church and| we go nearly every Sunday. To be really truthful, I don't think| 1 could ever wish for a better mother in the whole world. Patsy May (12), 29 Brock street east, Oshawa, Ontario. I THINK MY MOTHER'S THE GREATEST BECAUSE . . . I love her and naturally anyone whom you love is al- ways your greatest and best friend. Upon looking back at the past and ahead to the future, I fidn that the only one I have completely relied on and will continue to rely on is my moth- er. Whenever a school problem arises for me, the correct an- swer comes from my mother. I also find that my mother is the only one I am able to turn to when I need comfort, love, and understanding. Many times I have thought of running away but when I think of the worry and anxiety I could cause my mother I quickly change my mind. Of course like all moth- ers, mine often punishes or re- fuses me something; at times like this it is hard for me to say my Mom's the greatest, but of course as everyone knows it's for my own good. I would also like to add to this story that when I say my Mom's the greatest I not only mean in all the things she does for me but I also think she has the greatest beauty. Since all this is true I have come to the con- clusion that no one can take the place of my mother. Marie Willoughby (13 yrs.), 203 Valencia road, Oshawa, Ontario. 1 THINK MY MUM IS THE GREATEST BECAUSE . . . I can't think of enough nice things to say about her. My mum is thoughtful, kind and sweet and shows me and my sisters and brothers how 'much she loves us by teaching us right from wrong and to be good.

Purposes of the organization, as set out in the charter, are: To strengthen the peace and security of the hemisphere; prevent possible causes of dif- ficulties and ensure the pacific settlement of disputes that may among the member states; provide for common action on the part of those states in the event of aggression; seek the solution of political, juri- dical and economic problems that may arise among them; and promote, by co-operative action, their economic, social and cultural development. higher if Can=da coupled this membership with financial aid to underdeveloped countries in Latin America. This aid would {be funnelled through -the Inter- American Development Bank, established in late 1959 with an authorized capital of $850,000, 000, of which the U.S. has put up $250,000,000. External affairs department officials estimate Canada's con- tribution would be between $17,- 000,000 and $25,000,000. But investment in the bank is not a requirement of membership, although all present members of OAS except Cuba are invol- ved in the scheme.
