being realized with the opening of a Craft Centre by the Newmarket Handcraft group In fact the plans for such a place existed with the individual members long before the group was organized For years they have discussed the possibility of bringing all the craft enthusiasts of the comun- together at one workshop Sometimes the dream almost materialized but each time an unexpected difficulty made its realization an Impossibility Before the old fire hall was destroyed while It was the Vet erans DugOut a craft centre was operated for several winters Instruction was given in block printing knitting smocking glove making and other skills But with the removal of the old building the craft centre Now substantially through the generosity of Mr and Mrs James Crossland the dream is becoming a reality A cabin on their form on Yonge St has been pro vided for the use of the New market Handcraft group Many plans are under discus sion by the organization and if there is sufficient interest to warrant courses of instruc tion in weaving a leatherwork smocking needlepoint and other crafts will be given Such ideas as a display room for local drafts and a spot where visitors can discuss their hobbies or listen to lectures and demonstrations ore being considered The provincial government is loaning the group twolarge floor looms which will be used for In struction and demonstration pur poses They are expected to Firemen Give Year s Report f Hope For Alarm Sysfenill rive early In February The centre will be opened on Tuesday Feb find each Tues day thereafter from to pm Registration for craft courses are being token and all who are interested in them arc requested to contact Mrs Ar thur Newmarket Mrs H Bales president of the Newmarket Handcraft group said that in the past few months there have been many In quiries about instruction classes Wherever possible we shall or ganize a class in the special sub ject requested she said The cabin which will be the for the skilled needlewomen and craft enthusi asts of the area contains a large bright room with a stone fire place It is heated with a space heater for winter use A sun- room runs the full length of the building The cabin is located west of the main house with the en trance being by the regular lane- way Mrs H Bales said that anyone visiting the centre would have no difficulty in finding it as the cabin can be seen from parking area at the rear of the house Early registration for the classes will greatly assist the Handcraft group workers in or ganizing their program Young interested in knitt ing and smocking will be able to receive the necessary instruction Others perhaps already skilled in those fields may be interested in learning a hobby such as leather work or weaving The opportunity is being offered by the Handcraft group The suc cess of the venture will depend largely upon the response re ceived The Newmarket Fire Depart ment has released a report this week on its activities during At the recent annual
