Many people of constituencies all over the pro- vince are preparing to instruct their representatives concerning this matter of legislation for our pro- vince with respect to the Lords Day Act. What has happened in Toronto may soon happen all over the pro- vince and. our land. The respon- sibility for keeping one day "Holy unto the Lord our God" rests upon the Christian people of "this pro- vince. Christians everywhere should face thi€ challenge and make their stand known before it is too late. On Sunday evening at the Bap- tist Church tiie minister will deal with this question. Other views will be welcome at the conclusion of the sermon. For Council FRED ZINKIE Candidate. for the vacancy on Pick- ering township council.

After a refreshing cup of tea, the President, Mrs. W. E, G. Sum- mers, conducted a short business meeting; she then introduced the speaker, Mrs. C. R. Carscallen, who gave a most interesting talk on "The Two Whitbys." Whitby, England, is a coastal town situated in Yorkshire and has a population of 13,000; it is a health resort and lies between the sea and the land of the heather. It has a newspaper, called the Whitby Gazet- te, which is published every Friday. Whitby is a Danish name and rising 200 feet above the Esk river. The story of Whitby Abbey is a long and interestliing one, 'Whitby, Ontario, has a population of 4,694; it was first sighted in 1615 by Champlain, The area from the Trent river to York was surveyed by Augustus Jones and divided into townships which were numbered. He renamed the various towns, choosing the names from English areas, Norwich was re-named Whitby, other new names were Darlington, Pickering and Scar- borough. The speaker closed her informa- tive talk by comparing the two Whitbys. All Saints' Church, Whit- by, has incorporated in her walls a piece of stone, presented by a church of the same name in Whitby, Eng- land, on Dec. 10th., 1939. Through the war years and even yet, the church here sends food parcels to Whitby, England. On July 23, 1940, St. Hilda's school sent five sisters of the Order of the Holy Parculite with sixteen children to the Ontario Ladies' College. Whitby welcomed these guests and helped in many ways to entertain and provide for the visitors. The appreciation of the address wr3 well expressed by Miss Sissons, Dean of O.L.C. and Mrs, Karn of Oshawa, ALFALFA SEED PRODUCTION It is estimated that United States farmers need 60 million pounds of alfalfa seed a year. Lack of pol- lination by honeybees or wild bees, combined with damage by Lygus bugs have in recent years severely threatened alfalfa seed production. U.S. officials now claim that ythe industry can come back into its own by increasing the honeybee population and controlling the 'Lygus bug with DDT. Whitby Classified BE PREPARED.

By CLIFF GORDON Hurry folks, down to Taylor's Arena Monday night. The occas- jon: Taylor's Sports play Whitby Merchants. Why all the excite- ment? Billy (the Kid) Taylor will be playing for the Sports team... It is an interesting thing to know that Taylor, one of the best players to come off the Oshawa assembly line, was a line mate of Doc Dafoe's a few years back. The other man on that great line was the late W. Shortt, who was killed in action during the war. This will be a keenly fought game, as both teams axe a fast, hard working gang. The locals first line of Dafoe, Trimm and B. Dalby will be all out to give the one time pro. Taylor, a little of the way we play hockey in the county town. Dafoe in his last appearance here bagged no less than four goals, while Trimm was close behind him. With fellows like these playing you have just a small idea what the ac- tion will be like Monday night. Be on hand Monday night at 8.30.

Ontario county residents who hope to see all municipal health services centralized under the Health Unit system will be Interested in the following news item which says that, after four years of operation, the Northumberland-Durham Health Unit is amplifying its program to extend into secondary schools--a fleld which . has been studicusly neglected by other health agencies. There are 13 collegiate institutes, high schools and continuation schools in these counties. 'The health supervision of child- ren begins in infancy, when Health Unit nurses make visits to the homes to assist mothers in carrying out the family doctor's instructions and is continued throughout the life of the pre-school child, During this period the work of the family doctor is also supplemented by im- munization clinics carried out by Health Unit Medical Officers. When a child starts school, ex- aminations of various types by the public health nurses and medical officers are available. During 1949, the medical exam- children attending elementary school at the time the examinations were initiated. This year, it will be possible to continye the health supervision of the 'child when he commences secondary school. Owing to the fact that practically all' these children have been subject to examinations during their career in the elementary schools, it will not be necessary to carry out routine examinations in the high schools, and this will make it possible to de- vote more time to individual cases ination was completed of all the|to 4.30 who may be helped by advice' by the staff of the Health Unit. ~~ As in the case of elementary school, the health work of the Unit will be carried on as a supplement to the supervision of the children by the family doctor. It is hop that, in addition to any imm te value that may result from assiste ance given to individual children in the secondary schools, the contact of the Health Unit staff with this older group of children will tend to be of value in making them conscious of the importance 'of public health in the community.
