I Uh 4 12TH BROWNIES Well, girls, here we are again and I hear that you really enjoy reading about our meetings in the paper so I will try to have it there for you every week. The Tweenies are enrolled and are now well on the road to becoming first, class Brownies. The meeting last week was on St. Valentine's Day so we just naturally had to have a party. This week, however, everyone was anxious to get at their tests again, and see what they could accomplish, The recruits will certainly learn their First Aid right with Mrs. Hillmer to instruct them. What a lovely plant Margaret Leyden brought to show us in Pow Wow, Take care of it, Margaret, as we shall all love to see the beautiful blooms which will come later.

In those years he quiety but steadily gained himself many valuable friendships in and around the Houses of Parliament. they had many ideas in common. To other, prominent members of the Liberal Govérnment Greenwood made himself agreeable and useful in a variety of ways. When York rejected him in 1910 Greenwood secured election for Sunderland, and was sitting as member for this borough when the Great War broke out. His services to the Liberal Party gained him a baronetcy at the close of 1914. Greenwood became Colonel of a battalion of the South Wales Bord- erers, but after a winter in the He then assumed a position on Lord Derby's staff at the War Office, which he filled until appointed head of a new Department of Overseas in Empire trade and commerce the post-war years, Gp trenches was invalided to England.

For a prolonged period he was the best-hated man in many parts of Ireland, and this re- sult was brouight about by his re- fusal to believe that the successors of the RIC. -- the "Black and Tans" -- could do anything force gained its name from the fact that it was recruited in such haste when the numbers of the R.I.C. began to dwindle that in wrong. | King ed in khaki uniforms dnd dark 'green forage caps. The force was charged in Ireland with every kind of outrage and offense, and Sir Hamar's refusal to believe that individuals of the force could do wrong aroused fury in Ireland and much dissatisfaction in the Com- mons itself where he was subjected daily to prolonged questioning. If possible, this feeling was intensified by the later policy of reprisals. Sir Hamar Greenwood saw the conclusion . of the final truce be- tween the two countries and was a signatory of the Irish Peace Treaty. He fell, with the Coalition Govern- ment in 1922, and suffered a second defeat when attempting to re-enter Parllament for his old constituency of Sunderland at the general elec- tion of December 6, 1923. In 1911 Sir Hamar married Mar- gery, daughter of Walter Spencer, and they had two sons and two daughters, Greenwood for many years held a commission in King Edward's Horse.

Greenwood (Continued From Page 4) phyrs of Imperial sentiment were blowing over England that Hamar Greenwood found the wheel of for- tune turning towards him. He was duly called to the Bar, and if the i 'briefs hardly "came trooping gaily" there was at any rate a fair amount of "devilling" and work in Cham- bers. Greenwood was in a position to embark upon the sea of British politics. It is not at all surprising that he was made welcome on Lib- eral platforms, A "breezy Colonial" who was a teetotaller but not bigot, a Free-trader but no Little Eng- lander, and who, moreover, unques- | tionably possessed a fine presence {and platform manner, was a valu- 'able recruit. Greenwood used to 'regale his audience with tales. The tales were told to many audiences over a long period (but they always sounded as if they were brand-new) and they dealt with his early life in Canada. One story was of how he taught school, at a place known as Spodunk. "I was godfather of {all christenings, best. man at all | weddings, and no 'fafidral! was com- i plete without me Because I was the {only man in the township who pos- | sessed a plug hat."

Musical records and films on a wide variety of subjects, as well as books dealing with every department of life are available, The Board is grateful for the continued in- terest and support of the members of the City Council, who have shown a constant readiness to further the work of the Library. The matter of most serious concern to the Board is the fact that we are still occupying a building erected over forty years ago for a population of 5,585, and since then the population has i d to five times that number. Plans are being worked out by the Library Board in co-operation with the City Council for the expansion of the Librery's premises. It is hoped that in the near future & home may be provided for the Library's activities, of which this growing community will be proud. Excerpts From . CHAIRMAN'S REPORT The Library Board has pleasure in offering a brief outline of its work during 1948. The in- formation . contained in the Librarian's report will indicate the importance of the Library's contribution to the cultural life of Oshawa. There has been a remarkable increase in circu- lation of books. This has been due to an expanding interest on the part of the citizens, and recognition of the valuable facilities the Library affords. The main factor in the increase has been the constant effort of the competent, energetic and courteous staff of the library to bring before the citizens the lavish opportunities available in the Library for recreation, enter- tainment, cultural development and serious ©|9]0 ol z|~|n|m|m| Z|» ©|0|z o|m|n[m[a[<]o]= [+] = EL Nimo o|Z|>EEO|™ Riyin (Continued From Page 9) to meet at St. George's Sunday School ' on Centre St. at 6:40 P.M. tomorrow evening to join the Guides and Brown- les In this event.

Films were shown in the Boys' and Girls' Department nearly every Saturday morning. Circulation in the Boys' and Girls' Depart- ment surpassed that of 1947 by 4,934. A book deposit was started at Cedardale and plans were made for another at Ritson School. A member of the staff visited Cedardale one morning each week to circulate books. We dec' "ed also that a staff member should visit as many classes as possible in the public schools of the city to give book talks and encourage the use of the library. 90 classes were visited in the spring and 45 in the fall. 68 classes came to the Library. Children's Book Week was celebrated early in June. A poster contest was held in co- operation with our Public Schools. At least 80 posters were entered by Grade 7 and 8 pupils. A successful party was given for pre-school children and their mothers. There was also a masquerade of splendid characters from the pages of our favourite books and judged by the mayor himself. The second year of our branch library at Simcoe Hall showed an increase in circulation of ever seven hundred. The book collection now totals 1,959. Over three hundred new books were added during the year. The same library cards may be used at the branch and the main library. Adult membership is growing very slowly. Adequate service can be given only. through better facilities and a staff qualified to guar- antee efficient service. Under present condi- tions, further progress seems impossible. Excerpts From LIBRARIAN'S REPORT 3,283 books were purchased during 1948, more books in one year than ever before in the history of the Library. Circulation increased with the result: that 11,028 more books were circnlated than in 1947. 143,463 books were loaned, The Library highlight for the astumn months was our first exhibit at the Oshawa Fair. We were surprised at the enthusiasm shown for our display by many who commented on the fact that not a few of the Library's resources had been unknown to them. If we should decide fo have an exhibit another year, it would be well worth our while to purchase the space for a booth. Displays throughout the Library were st d this year and every encouragement was given to community groups to make use of the Library " for this purpose. - The Oshawa Camera Club and the Boy Scouts and Girl Guides had outstand- {be another big reunion--The Post dia i a ig ag exHbL.
