SATURDAY, APRIL 15, 1950 frHE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE Lectures Given To Young People On Marriage MRS. B. OKE Correspondent Ebenezer, April 14--For the past wto weeks the young people of Courtice, Ebenezer and Maple Grove Union have listened to two Oshawa ministers give the first two lectures on a series of studies in "Youth and Christian Marriage." by Rev, H. A. Mellow and Rev. F. J. Whitely of Oshawa. v In a frank and understandable manner Mr. Mellow discussed the physical side of married life before showing the young people how vital it is to have an alert and keen mind. "No young lady would want to marry a man who always talks about the farm products" and a young man would not wish to marry a girl who could think or talk of nothing but the latest show or some other topic which is of little interest. Mr. Mellow also pointed out the proper place of etiquette and courtesy in maintaining - a happy relationship. The fourth and final point is to build a marriage on Christian principals. Taking ex- amples from his wide experience as a minister, he told of some of the broken marriages which he had had to deal with, and pointed out their causes and how they could have been avoided. Some of the young people from Northminster Church, Oshawa, accompanied Mr, Mellow, and assisted in the worship period and sing-song which brought the meeting to a close. Mr. Mellow spoke on "Christian Marriage". Rev. Frank Whiteley, Centre 8t. United Church spoke on 'Friend- ship" on Monday evening at their meeting which opened with the singing of several Easter -hymns. Mr. Whiteley said, "We alone are responsible for the friends we choose, and it is our duty to choose our friends from among Christians. In so doing it is a good thing to start with cultivating the friend- ship of Jesus Christ who hallows all our friendships. "If we desire a Christ centred life it must be full of worship and prayer. Many young people claim that they have difficulty when they try to pray, and if they do not pray the Christian life loses its punch and vitality." He also advised the young people to choose their friends from people in the church or if they did find them outside the church to do their best to develop an interest in it. A period of recreation was en- Jjoyed at the close of the meeting. The No. 4 Farm 'Forum held their meeting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Hilton Tink, with an at- tendance of 20. The year's question- naire was filled in reviewing the discussions for the year and de- ciding the topics preferred for next year, The 1949-1950 regular season was brought to a close with a pot-luck supper held in the Sunday School room at Ebenezer, After a delight- ful supper all listened to the broad- cast. The guest speaker was E. J. McGarrity, Manager of Durham Farmer's County Co-op, Orono, who outlined the co-ops work in Oanada and throughout the world. This, the ninth year which the Farm Forum has been held, has been most interesting and profitable. Twenty meetings have been held with an average attendance of 26. Plans are under way now for a social evening at the Oshawa Air- port some time in the near future. Sympathy is extended to the fam- STROWGER'S FURNITURE CO. LTD.

Visited Garden Club Several members of the Ajax Horticultural Society accepted the invitation to visit the Whitby Garden Club last .evening, to hear Mrs, F.

Many Problems (Continued from Page 4) others to the Whitby branch on the substantial construction and fine appointments of the hall. It would be hard to beat it anywhere, one branch president said. Branches Represented Branches represented at the rally were Whitby, Oshawa, Ajax, Bow=- manville, . Claremont, Highland Creek, Port Perry, and Sunderland. Zone Commander James Lovell, of Oshawa, presided, and with him on the platform were the guest speak- er, Service Bureau Officer Ed Bays, District Commander Frank Thread- gold and the presidents and sec- retaries of the eight branches. Music by Fine Choir The entertainment committee presented the famous Treble Clef Choir, which, under the direction of Mrs. P. N. Spratt, presented several most acceptable numbers. It was the second appearance of the choir in the Legion Hall in the last few months. Many. favorable comments were heard on the work of the singers who have been heard at many places during the past winter. Address of Welcome The address of welcome was given by Harold Augustus, president of the Whitby branch, who said that he was glad to see so many branches in the zone represented, and also such a fine attendance. He invited the ex-servicemen to make a tour of the hall after the meeting so that they could carry home sug- gestions to their branches if they were contemplating building. The president spoke of the fine work the Legion is doing throughout Canada. District Commander Speaks Comrade Frank Threadgold, dis- trict commander, in a brief but in- formative address, touched on sev- eral important problems now facing the Legion, after conveying the thanks of his wife and himself for many kind expressions sent to them in various forms from all parts of the zone and district while they were confined to the hospital fol- lowing an automobile accident, He urged support for the proposal long under consideration that Imperial war veterans be brought under the provisions of the War Pensions Act. "It has been a long struggle but we will win out in the end," he told his fellow comrades, adding that the Legion never asked for any- thing that was unreasonable. The district commander said that the Legion should show its hand in the matter of old age pensions, now much to the fore, Personally, he believed that they should be con- tributory from 65 to 70, and after 70 become the whole responsibility of the state, He paid eloquent tri- bute to the work of the Ladies' Auxiliaries who were a tower of strength to the senior organization. Those branches who do not have these auxiliaries do not know what they are missing, he said, pointing that the Whitby branch auxiliary had given between $1,000 and $1,200 towards the new extension to the hall. 'The District Commander urged all branches in the zone to send strong representation to the Distric. Rally to be held in Lindsay o April 23. Many important matters would be dealt with, he said, and resolutions would be sent on for the Dominioa convention, Resolutions Passed Three important resolutions were passed by the meeting to be for- warded to the District Rally to be held at Lindsay om April 23rd. From the Branch at Highland Creek came one asking the Federal Government to provide free trans- portation on going on leave aace a year to all who are serving in His Majesty's forces in Canada. It was pointed out that many of these men travel long distances and at the preser4 time have to pay their own fares, constituting a read, financial hardship. The second resolution, advocated by Service Bureau Officer Ed Bays, was as follows: "Resolved, that the benefits of section 45 of the Pen- sions Act of Canada be made ap- plicable to allied veterans on the same basis as the order-in-council passed under the Allied Veterans Benefit Act for veterans having served in World War No. 1. Com- rade Bays stressed the importance of this resolution which would go before the Dominion Convention in Winnipeg this summer and, later, if adopted there, to the Federal Government, and asked the branches in this zone and district to get solidly behind it. For Imperial Veterans A third resolution asked that Im- perial veterans resident in Canada since discharge for a period of 20 years receive the same benefits and free hospitalization as Canadian veterans . receive under the War Veterans' Allowance regulations which provides for free treatment. Comrade Bays also stressed the im- portance of this resolution which, he pointed out, had been the sub- ject of debate in Legion Councils for many years, It was hoped to have it finally disposed of this ses- sion of parliament, he said.

Electronic Machine Miracle Calculator London --(CP)-- An "electronic brain," which remembers 256 10- digit numbers at a time and can make calculations 1,000 times faster than a girl with a desk computor, is being developed by the National Physical 'Laboratory. It is known as "Ace"--automatic computing engine. When completed sometime this summer Ace will have 43 brain cells, each about six feet high. It is hoped that the machine will sur- pass the big electronic calculator completed at Cambridge University and said to be the most advanced in the world. Instructions are fed into the ma- chine in the form of figures on punched cards. Ace automatically converts these into "decimal binary tables," a code of ones and noughts in which the figure 56, for example, is represented by 111,000. Then Ace turns the minto pulse patterns, seen as a green line on a screen, juggles with them, decodes the result and hands out the an- swer again in punched cards.
