N. Oshawa H&S Association Named After Canada's Queen Mrs. Uriah Jones organized the North Oshawa Home and School Association, now called the Queen Elizabeth Home and School Association, in Decem- ber, 1041, Mrs. A. J. Parkhill was the first president. She served from 1941-43. Other past presidents were Mrs. Bruce Glover, Mrs. Frank Lee, Mrs. Oscar Burgoyne, Mrs. Glenford Taylor, Mrs. George Weltz, Mrs. David Hutcheon, Mrs, Gordon Tomlinson, Mrs. Aylmer Ward, Mrs. Douglas Branton and Mrs. Carson Heard. Our. activities for the year in- cluded a "Record Hop"' and re- freshments for the Grade 8 class. Each pupil was presented with a class picture. Two scholarships of $25 and $15 were given to the pupils in Grade 8 who stood first and second in the class, for the highest marks (all requested assignments com- pleted), provided the pupils went on to a school of higher learning. On Field Day silver cups are presented to outstanding boys and girls in their section. An afternoon tea is held for the mothers of Grade 1 pupils, and this year Kindergarten pupils as well, to acquaint them with their children's teacher and school. On Hallowe'en aight, members were present at the school to count the money -collected by the pupils of UNICEF and give a treat to the children. In De- cember, a Christmas treat was provided for all the children. Open House was held in' April, when the pupils' work was dis- played in the various rooms. On our 20th birthday in De- cember we presented Mrs. D. Hutcheon, the only remaining Charter member still actiye in the association, with a Life Membership and pin. Our money raising activities to meet our budget included a "Dollar A Family" drive and a "Night of Cards and Bake Sale". In May, officers for 1963- were elected as follows: President, Mrs. J. L.

Treats For Wards Of Shelter Kinettes Constant Undertaking The Kinette Club is an auxil- iary of the Kinsmen Club of Oshawa. During our 23 years in existence we have been most active in local service work. Our Club Motto has always been "The Community's Great- est Need". One of the service projects from which the Kinettes derive much pleasure is the work car- ried on by the Club at the resi- dence of the Children's Aid So- ciety. Currently the members provide special treats and re- membrances on birthdays and Christmas. In the past year we have painted the benches and recovered the cushions, mak- ing the TV room a more ccom- fortable room to enjoy. The Kinette Ciub at present | has a membership of 49 who are ali keen to lend a he'ninz hand whenever possible. The Oshawa General Hospital, "Ladies scams A Faet !"
