Macpherson Phone 708, All Departments Friendships Are Better Than Battleships, They Never Get 'Obsolete Rev. C. A. Malcolm entered a strong plea for toler- ance and understanding when he addressed Legionnaires and members of the community at the Memorial Service held under the auspices of the Whitby Branch of the Canadian Legion at the United urch last night. "We must do i in our power to prevent another 'war" he said, "We must ild peace". bald pe: years ago we were proud of our brothers in Russia", contin- ued the minister, "proud of their courageous stand, and their subs- quent advance. But before they had pushed the enemy as far as Berlin, there was gH criticism. The iron curtain dropped." "Sirs ye are bretirer, said Mr: colm, "racial concepts, P! - sles may not be changed by threat, we must have brotherhood. A temple in the heart of a city is better than a wall." Mr, Malcolm also spoke for relig- ous tolerance. "Friendships are bets ter than battleships", he pointed] put, "and are never absolete." He told of the contributions made by Jews in science and culture and assured his listeners that all the Jacobs and Shylocks in the world are not Jewish, "I have not been Jong enough in Whitby to have found your Jacobs and Shylocks", he said, "but I am sure they are here." - Mr. Malcolm cited examples of religious and racial intolerance, happening in our own land. He told of great nations forgetting God and perishing, and admonished his listeners in the words of Joseph to his brethren, "See that ye do not quarrel by the way." The Memorial Service was a union affair, and Rev. Gordon Channen, of All Saints' Anglican, Rev. F. T. Darnell of Whitby Bap- tist Church and Rev. D. B, Langford of St. John's Anglican Church, Port Whitby assisted Mr, Malcolm in the service. Rev, D.

NOW PLAYING Two Shows, at'7.00 and 9.00 Sulie thought "4 Do" meant fove & laughs it meant bread & butter tool Flags Dedicated Sunday Morning "You can't have victory unless you pay for it. You can't have peace unless you work for it", Rev, Gordon Channen told Whitby Boy Scouts and Cubs as they attended the morning service at All Saints' Anglican Church for the dedication of flags presented to them by the Scout and Cub mothers. Mr, Channen had been speak! to the boys about Nelson's: flagship "Victory", land bound, and pre- served as a memorial of a great day and a great man, He spoke of the visions of adventure a visit to the ship would bring, but assured his audience that actual war is not all glorious adventure, and mentioned the difficulty in finding any com- batant who wished to speak of actual fighting. "Being a real Christian is a great adventure", sald Mr, Channen, "God is our Captain and he sends us out if we will go to fight for him against all that is wrong and cruel and unfair. Great victories are to be won in peace as well as in war", he continued. "If you are tempted, fight and win. Find wrong and try to put it right, Find some- one who needs help and help him up." Mr, Channen told the boys of the plain brass plaque which marks the spot where Nelson fell, wounded-- and dying. "Nelson and many oth- ers gave their lives to win victory that day", he said, "and the little brass plate tells of a great sacri- fice." "We aren't going to forget these men who gave their lives to buy victory for us," he continued. "We aren't going to forget that every man who went to war was offering his life ready to give it, if necessary, for us". "They have given us victory", said Mr. Channen, "they have given us a chance to make a peaceful world. We can best show gratitude by be- ing unselfish when tempted to be greedy, friendly, mot hateful nor quarrelsome, That's our job, our sacrifice." Two verses of the National An- them were sung at the close of the service. The second was the une familiar verse which had special significance when used recently at & United Natiozis' Service held re- cently in England. "Nor on this land alone,-- But be God's mercies known From shore to shore. Lord, make the nations see That men should brothers be, +And form one family 4 The wide world o'er." The dedication and pr abl Newest Archaelogical Discovery Since 'King Tut" Discovery of the tomb of the ancient great-tusked god Aipaec, believed to be 1,000 years old, and containing one of the archaeological "finds" of recent times, was announced at Columbia university. The tomb, bearing remarkably well preserved specimens of earliest American art, as well as the remains of a high priest thought to be the last of the dynasty of moral impersonators of the god, was discovered by Dr. William Duncan Strong, of Loubat prof logy and head of a Columbia university expedition which recently returned from six months of excavations in the Viru valley of Peru. The grave discovered was that of an actual man who combined the roles of priest, warrior and also personified the god. Shown here are contents of the tomb of the god Aipaec when the cover was removed, revealing hitherto unknown treasures of Mochica civilization, e Shown (ABOVE) is a closeup of the god itself, and at RIGHT Dr. Wil- of the flags preceded the regular service. A color party of twelve boys carried the flags to the altar where they were dedicated by Mr. Channen. Mrs, H. D. Rowley and Mrs. W. Courtney, president and vice-president of the Scout and Cub mothers' group, received the flags from the minister and presented them to W. Lawlor, Scoutmaster and F, Warburton, Cubmaster, Men More Susceptible To Coronary Disease London--(CP)--Far more men than women die of heart disease, Sir Maurice Cassidy said in an ad- dress to the Royal College of Phy- sicians, but no satisfactory explan- ation for this fact had been ad- vanced. He sald that notes on 1,000 cases he had analyzed showed 779 pati- ents were male and 221 female, In the past, no doubt, women had led & more sheltered life but no one could contend today that men Works four times as hard as wom- He said he doubted if smoking played an important part in coron- ary disease but if so a more equal sex. incidence was to be expected in the next 10 years. Sir Maurice said he had never seen the condition called "tobacco sngina," and had never seen an- gina cured by stopped smoking Of his coronary patients 17.6 per cent were non-smokers, 42.6 per cent tmoked not more than 20 cigarets a 'day and 39.8 per cent were heavy smoke TS. He said the rapidly increasing death rate from coronary disease was no doubt due in part to the in- creasing age of the population. | Students Build Own Quarters Posen, Poland--(CP)--If Cana- dian students think their quarters are cramped, they should live in the university town of Posen, Poland, where the latest government de- cree states that no one person shall occupy more than 15 square metres of accommodation, an area no larg- er than a-double bed, . The large student hostel which used to accommodate some thous- ands of students was used by the Germans as a Labor Front office during the occupation When they withdrew, they blew up one hall and burned the other. The cost of rebuilding the hostel was estimated at $48,000,000 zlodych . ($480,000) and Posen studgnis figured that using the gov ent grant alone it would take 150 to 180 years to re- build it. The students rolled up their shirt sleeves, Before winter one wing will be completed at a cost of 4, 000,000 zlotych, 1,000,000 of which they raised themselves. Much of the unskilled labor they are doing themselves between, lectures. Al- teady they have established a car- Venter shop where window and door frames now are being made. Representatives of International Student, Service are helping them direct operations and making sub- stantial contributions in money.

"I'm the land- lord. My church is the Lord May- or's Church." The Bishop of London admits "there is some doubt about it."

"It is in my parish. I'm the land- lord and I receive £10 ($40) a year rent. "There is no question that St. Mary Woolnoth is the Lord Mayor's church and the maps are in my ves- try to prove it.
