# ifam @ MRS. EWART McLAUGH LIN, convener of the Henry House Museum, located at Lakeview Park, shows an ex- hibit of antique clocks on dis- play at the museum. This i *® t special collection was loaned to the museum by Mr, and Mrs. A. A. Guest of Whitby. The museum, sponsored by the Oshawa and District His- torical Society, will be offi- Antique Clocks Museum When the Henry House Museum reopens its doors on Thursday evening of this week for the 1963 season, to the charm which pervaded the rooms last year will be added that of the musical chiming of old clocks. Although much which attract- ed such favorable comment from visitors last summer still| remains, several important new features have been added. One of the most fascinating of these ig a display of antique clocks which has been loaned, for the most part, and attractively set up, by Mr. and Mrs. Guest of oy! 'ae points t, Mr, out, at of our modern production and selling technique originated with the clock industry. In the early days clocks brought the travelling salesman to our) doors. they, in turn, sparked) the westward pioneer era. Clocks are a symbol of the in- genuity that made our present standard of living possible -- a pleasantly audible reminder of ever changing taste and time. MADE IN 1816 The oldest of the clocks in the present exhibition is one made about 1816 by the famous firm of Eli Terry and Sons. It has the distinction of being the first American weight driven shelf clock and, in its perfectly proportioned case, with Pillar and Scroll design, is one of the most beautiful on display. Of particular interest, too, on a side wall, is the Eli Terry Patent Wood Movement. This movement, even after 135 years, will still operate. It is made from seasoned cherrywood afd the gearwheels show very little shrinkage. Perhaps the first great name in American clock production, Feature Thomaston. The Henry House current collection boasts a clock made by Mr. Thomas in 1835, one whose carved pillars and spread eagle top is reminiscent of the style so popular at that time. A Seth Thomas Eight-day clock also is shown. This is a spring wound shelf clock with an alarm. Chancey Jerome, a third great name in American clock production, who worked for a time with Eli Terry, had the distinction of originating the one-day brass movement, thus making wooden movements ob- solete and reviving the clock in- dustry. An 1845 model of Jerome's may be seen ail with a very rare Steeple clock of his which is a fine example of the transition period from weight to spring movements, Of special interest to us, how- ever, is one of the first clocks bearing a Canadian label, Ac- tually, about 1855, its movement was made by Seth Thomas and shipped to Canada. Here it was cased and the local shopmaker's name applied. MADE IN WHITBY Also in 'the, Guest collection is one of the few clocks complete- ly manufactured in Canada. This was produced in 1870 at the Canada Clock Co., Brock street south, Whitby. Two years later the building was demolished but the lot later housed the Whitby |Town Hall. Probably the most beautiful clock in the whole collection, though, is an old grandfather's clock of pine in the parlor. We are proud to report that this is a Canadian made product.

Sarawak What is the first thing a Sarawak native would ..otice on) his arrival in Canada? "The climate," Frank Apau, politely. He doesn't say it is torn °'d, or even chilly or damp. But ne admits it takes a bit of getting used to. Even when you arrive in the fall, as he did. He has never been on skis but says he grew to like skating while wintering in Ottawa.

Beginning June 1, the letter stated, earnings of workers will be considered up to a ceiling of $6,000 a year, an increase of $1,000, This means that a work- er earning about $115 per week will now receive $75 per cent of his earnings. A widow's pension after a fatal accident remains the same, but allowances for chil- dren of workmen killed in in- dustrial accidents will be in- creased from $25 to $40 per month. Allowances for orphan- ed children will be upped from {$35 to $50 monthly. The Oshawa and District Labor Council will recommend that Mrs. Christine Thomas be appointed to the Oshawa Board of Health. CONDEMN TRUSTEE Stephen G. Saywell, vice- chairman of the Oshawa Board of Education, was hauled over the coals by Fred Beckstead, president of the Oshawa Build- ing Construction Trades Coun- cil, at Tuesday night's labor council meeting. Mr. Beckstead claimed Mr. Saywell made a_ statement about the Mel-Ron Construction company at the last board meeting, that the company should be checked out before a contract was awarded, because he hadn't seen any work done by this company. "This is a shameful thing to say about one of the most re- spected construction companies stead, He added that this company has owrked for some of the best architects in the country and employs about 150 men during the summer months. Council passed a motion that a letter be sent to the board of education condemning Mr. Saywell for his remarks, In- formation regarding past jobs and the architects the company has worked for, will also be in the area,' said Mr. Beck-|- Native Studies Civic Life Back home in Saravok. a British colony of 750,000 per- sons occupying the northwest section of the island of Borneo, Frank spent 1960 and 1961 work- jing as a welfare administrator / and licencing (everything from ; guns to immigrants) official under a district governor in the district of Limbang. Prior to that, his studies were rewarded with a Cambridge (overseas) school certificate. "Now that I am a little used to the climate, my biggest diffi- culty is language," he said Tuesday, Although he has been speaking English on and off for 12 years in Sarawak, Frank still finds he has to "think care- fully before I speak." He says he has less trouble interpreting school texts than he does in talking to other. persons. Also, he is a long way from home and things familiar. He confessed he suffers from "homesickness." TO STUDY DEPARTMENTS Frank will study all civic de- partments in Oshawa, with the emphasis on Herbert Chese- brough's welfare department. He has spent some 'time in the city planning and assess- ment departments. He has been a spectator at court proceed- Ings, has visited an Oshawa Collegiate Institute and has looked at the Oshawa General Hospital administration from ithe welfare cases angle. Last week, Frank watched the city fathers during their mara- thon session. And he was a spec- tator in the House of Commons this spring on the night the Diefenbaker goverriment fell. This is not Frank's first visit to Oshawa. He spent last Christ- mas as a guest of the Dr. Dan FRANK APAU, CENTRE, from Sarawak, Borneo, is a long way from home.
