PAGE SIX THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 2, 1946 Will Reside in Toronto MR, and MRS, MORLEY E. R. CHESHER who were married in Christ Church recently. The bride, the former Ruby Henrjetta Dayman, is the daughter of Mr, and Mrs, George Dayman, of Oshawa. The bridegroom is the son of Mr, and Mrs. A. J. Chesher of Port Hope, ~Photo by CO, H, Cooper Mrs. Kate Aitken Urges Women To Unite to Get a Better World "There isn't a government, feder. al or provincial, which will not lis- ten to three and three-quarter mil- lion women," declared Mrs, Kate Altken last evening addressing a large audience of women and a few men in Simcoe Street United Church. This large number of women in 40 social organizations women in 40 social organiations such as Women's Institutes, the JODE and church societies throughout Canada, and they have the power to secure anything they Tei want. A Aitken, well known through the Canadian National Exhibition, her radio program and her work with the Wartime Prices and Trade Board, came here under the aus- Pices of the Junior Woman's Asso- ciation of the church, Rev, A, D. Cornett, D.D., presided and intro- duced her and others on the pro- gram, Musical Program Mr, Kelvin James, AT.CM., and Mr. Matthew Gouldburn, as a two- plano team, played two groups of leces: "Vienna Life" (Strauss) ana el's organ concerto in F Major (Andante), gi Joy of Jans Desiring" and g eep- ing," both by Bach, Their satisfy- ing numbers were followed by Thomas Austen's arrangement of "The Keel Row," a brilliant plece which put the audience in a fine mood for the speaker who followed, Miss Winona Denyes of Toronto sang three songs, "Art Thou Trou- bled?" by Handel, "Sea Wreck" by Hamilton Harty and "Life!" Pearl Curran, Mr, Kelvin James was her accompanist, Miss Denyes, always appreciated by an Oshawa audience, received a warm welcome back, for, said Dr. Cornett in introducing her, she was coming home, in that her fath- er is a United Church minister in Oakland, Man., she has relatives in the Simcoe Street congregation and she graduated from the On- tario Ladies' College, Whitby. Miss Denyes is now studying at the To- ronto Conservatory of Music. Unitedly Demand Taking as her subject, "What Cost Peace?" Mrs, Aitken asserted the women of Canada, through their 40 social organizations, can get peace if they demand it, They can secure improved conditions if they but unite, said she, "We'd "better get together, boys, for the girls are getting after us," is what the members of parliament in Ottawa will say, she remarked humorously, when the women of Canada unite in thelr demands for better conditions, "The Ladies' Home Journa] is right in saying 'Never understate the power of women,' " Mrs, Aitken Riesid and then gave some figures in proof. Canadian women last year spent 85 cents out of every dollar spent, she sald, Of every dollar spent, 50 Senta goes in retail buying, she add- Two-fifths of the bonds and stocks owned by Canadians are held by women, and three-fifths of the savings accounts are theirs. Women cash in on four-fifths of all life insurance, she revealed, and gave as the reason, that women are longer-lived than men. Canada The speaker prefaced her appeal for united organized effort by wo- men for the securing of improved conditions with a delightful account Of her recent trip across Can from the Atlantic to the Pacific, In Sydney she lived in a home where the mother put 10 cents in a box every week from the time she new suothes lstle one would come 80 she money ready for the Victorian Order nurse when she was needed, In Prince Edward Island she lived with a "silver-fox family' as she called it. She recalled the time when a pair of silver foxes bred on the Island, the original home of that industry, were sold to an American for $30,000--~"60 pounds of fox," sald she. She also recalled hearing 3 Prince Pdward Island man whose wife had just borne her thirteenth child, remarking, "If my old woman Was a sliver fox, I'd make my for. tune right now." Why Salmon Is Dear Staying in 8t, John, while in New Brunswick, she found people there stress the "St." in 8t. John and in "Ice cream" the "ice." She described salmon fishing at the mouth of the 8t. John River. A fisherman may make. over $200 in one day's catch, dhe related, but in the six days fol- lowing, he may make nothing. , Quebec, where one-| Onl by | third of Canada's stockings are made, was Mrs. Aitken's next stop- ping point. There she found peo- ple with Scotch names and French accents, a population 20 per cent, English and 80 per cent, French, but so broad-minded that English- speaking and French-speaking may- ors are elected alternately, Summing up her experience in the nine families in which she lived in her tour of the nine provinces, Mrs. Aitken revealed that seven of the mothers had had serious surgi- cal operations and five had had operations for cancer or fibroid tue mors. Leads The Way Drawing the conclusion that can- cer is exceedingly common, she pointed out that Saskatchewan is the only province with free cancer clinics, In Ontario, on the other hand, said she, one gets this free service only if certified by a doctor, This transcontinental trip of Mrs, Altken's convinced her that there is vast disillusionment throughout Canada. That neithea fighting nor peace treaties will eno war is the conviction she found everywhere, especially among re- turned men. Striking indeed was the speaker's story of Blll, the Western boy who "rode the rods" before the war, en- listed and found RCAF. life the "life of Riley," but always harbour ed the fear that afterwards he would have to "ride the rods" again, He didn't have to for he was shot down over Brest, Churches Slipping Somewhere our churches are alip- ping, declared the speaker who es- timated that only one family out of seven goes to church. A sense of honor is being lost, she said, lost by nations and by indivi- duals, Ohlldren talk about the black market and parents tell of the tires and sugar they get, We are becoming a world without honor. Women set the standards of the world and so, putting it rather "vul- garly," as she said, Mrs, Aitken con- cluded with "Women have to pull up their socks and get going if they want this world to be a better one." Mrs, H. E. W, Brownlee at the close of the meeting expressed the thanks of the Junior Woman's As- sociation to all who had taken part and all who had helped in any way.
