* New Oshawa Church Dedicated By Archbishop Mstyslaw é nd THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE Combining The Oshawa Times and Whitby Gazette and Chronicle OSHAWA WHITBY VOL. 9--No. 159 OSHAWA-WHITBY, MONDAY, JULY 10, 1950 PAGE THREE Orangemen Are Urged Make Contribution To Christian World Members of Orange iodges in Oshawa held their annual church parade to King Street United Church Sunday morning in com- memoration of the "Glorious Twelfth." The church was taxed to capacity. - Fg Ernest J. Robertson pointed out that the Orange Order has been defined as a great brotherhood that is an 'organization interested in constructing a highly efficient s0- cial order. "In this field Canada is con- fronted with its newest, and most difficult problem. During the pion- eer days, when the family was a unit existing unto itself, when land was free and game plentiful, when the father ruled his family with considerable authority, social prob- lems were comparatively few in number," Mr. Robertson sad, "The North American Indians were not considered a problem in scciology; they were enemies to be dr.ven out. But now we have sulGerly become organized nation. » Closely or.

Conses quently men are turning to illega attempts at securing great wealth UL Robeitson said that "in our education system we are brought face to face with the fact that the imparting of race experience does not necessarily make for desirable idealism. Sopa] Ia of our most painful social experiences arise from education that has failed to build noble ideals. Week after week they would ems= phasize some trait such as honesty or truthfulness.

Is it true that the Cana- dian people will attena our theatres in large numbers when immorality is shown? Our movie magnates and our theatre managers seem to as- sume that unless the advertising matter prcmises to show very sug- gestive scenes there is no point in advertising. I hope this is not a true indictment of our Canadian public. By our patronage we cast our vote determining 'what moral 'and ethical tastes shall be said to govern our day." Mr. Robe:tson said that region is a mode of life upon which our so- cial, moral and ethical conduct is "Religion is not like a horse that car be stalled in a separate com- partment, Religion :is 1'ke the at- mosphere, it permeates everything. The Christian Faith is a great quest. Christianity is not a commodity which we secure at some church altar and then carry home. It is not something for which we can barter, giving in exchange a few dollars to the church budget. The Christian Faith is a dynamic force leads us into the great walks of life. - Having accomplished glorious achievements. It strives mightily for still higher goals. True Chris- tianity, like science and invention, is ever in quest of still greater achievements Christianity is a life to be lived," he said. Something Seriously Wrong The minister maintained there is omething seriously wrong with a civilization that has produced two World Wars in one generation. "And unless we begin now to build a World Brotherhood on Christian lines, our world will be faced with another global war far ex eeding anything we have ever seen. If the world of the future is to be a true temple it must be the abidinz place of God of Justice, Truth and Coming Events CHURCH CARNIVAL, AT BST.

Shortly after arrival the annual Softball game between the Married and Single Men's teams got under way. Out on the diamond came the 'Benedicts' attired in a variety of costumes, and after the usual for- malities of taking photographs, au- tograph signing, etc., the game got under way. For three innings it was nip and tuck; evidently the varied and vivid colours of the Married Men's attire distracting the Single boys. However, the 'roof fell in' on the Benedicts in the fourth when their young and spry oppon- ents went right around their bat- ting order, at least once. They were aided by an epidemic of wildness on the part of Benedicts pitchers; also by the umpiring which was certainly not 'big league' standard. In fact, one of the arbitrators was tossed in the cool stream which meanders through the Park; only the pleading of his wife saved him from the swimming pool! After the official scorer announc- ed his count for that disastrous in- nings, the Benedicts lost interest in their Softball game and wan- dered over to the Swimming Pool, some Dossibly attracted by the 'Cole of California' models. There were a couple of mishaps at the pool; some of the younger folks evidently didn't bring their bathing suits, but they had a swim anyway, (clothes and all). After the first shock, they evidently enjoyed the dip or the swan dives of 'Gertrude' Butch Dyas because it was with re- luctance they left for the sports programme. This included many exciting races and other struggles of endurance and speed such as Watermelon eat- ing for the boys and Women's Roll- ing Pin contest, both these events causing intense excitement amongst the spectators. In the latter number Mrs. Les Reed won from a large field with a heave of a rolling pin that even surprised her husband. In fact, after a couple of more ex- perienced 'pin wielders' tossed the rolling pin, it just gave up and dis- integrated; so that event could not be finished. However, it was the 'Watermelon' boys that really stole the show. Right down to the last bite, it was a race between Glen Parks and Bruce Lanning, with a large circle T Sacustors urging on their favor- After this last event, all the folks got hungry and sat down to two long tables of appetizing food, that caused remarks even from the ami- able Park manager, Dan Found, who incidentally is celebrated for his "cheese-burgers." Supper over the prize winners received the re- wards of 'their efforts. Two special presentations were made; an.un- usual type of Trophy to Ken Cor- rigan, captain of the victorious Single Men's ball team, and a Lucky Number draw of an attractive Pic- nic Jug to Gerry Lepage. This con- cluded the day's program, and after the appreciation of all those present was amply demonstrated to the hard working Picnic Committee, a tired and happy contingent trooped back home .to Oshawa. Local Parks Very Popular Yesterday Coals were doffed, brows were wiped, and collars loosened as Osh- awa residents flocked to city and neighboring parks to escape yester- day's sweltering heat. Despite the high temperature readings most church officials reported splendid congregations. At Lakeview Park hundreds of persons milled over the spacious grounds. The Salvation Army band was in attendance at the park in the afternoon and offered a fine musical programme. The programme was well received. Beauty, the Father of all mankind. "Solomon was warned that more was necessary than merely a beau- tiful structure. It is the warning that sounds on and on, falling upon the ears of mankind in every gen- eration. The commandim:nts of God stand not merely because they are eternally true. He spoke them and they have lved on and on through our racial experience. We are convinced that the on'y pur- pose for which an organizat.on such as the Orange Order exists is to | perpetuate mn the lives of men these great variet es Permitt ng such a conviction to govern our conduct, let us contribute to the building of a great temple, a.place in which God would take pride to dwell," Mr. Robertson concluded. During the service M'ss Marilyn Davies sang "The Stranger of Gali- 0". Operation On Injured Eye Not Done Yet Children, Toronto, said today that so far an operation on five-year-old . Carolin Yeo, Peterborough, who re- ceived injuries to her eye here Fri- day, has not been necessary. They said her condition is "satisfactory" and she is "resting comfortably." Young Carolin was injured by a stone thrown by a nine-year-old boy, while playing in her aunt's backyard at 574 Simcoe Street North. Mrs. Paul Kelly, Carolin's aunt, said the child was playing witth Ian Costello, five, who also lives at 574 Simcoe Street North, when one of a group of five chil- dren started throwing stones at them. "I heard Carolin screaming and ran downstairs to see what was the matter, She had come round to the front of the house and blood was pouring from her face. I rushed her to the Oshawa General Hospi- tal." According to Mrs. Kelly the stone, thrown from some distance, smashed the lens of Carolin's glasses, and the splinters flew into her eye. Oshawa General Hospital officials rushed her to the Hospital for Sick Children. Ironically enough Carolin's moth- er, Mrs, Irvin Yeo, of Peterborough, said she had sent young Carolin to stay with her aunt here because of an "epidemic" of stone-throwing which had broken out in Peterbo- rough. Mrs. Yeo said she thought Carolin would be safer with her aunt. She said eye injuries have "plagued" her family since 1941. "When my daughter Dianne was 18 months old she suffered an eye in- jury as a result of a car accident." Mrs. Yeo's husband was blinded in glaucoma. Exam Results At 0.C.V.IL.

Ideal weaiher conditions, and a near-record attendance, greeted the annual picnic of the Oshawa Branch of the Canadian .Legion,. held. at Geneva Park on Saturday after- noon. A fleet of chartered buses, and scores of private cars took well over 600 men, women and children to the park, and a busy afternoon and evening were spent in a well- organized program. Chairman Wil- liam Beaton, in charge of the ar- rangements, and his committee had done a splendid job of organiza- tion, and assisted by Mrs, D. Guiltanan, president of th? Ladies' Auxiliary and Mrs. J. Lamb, had everything running smoothly from start to finish. One of the outstanding evtnts was a tug-of-war, Between teams representing veterans of World War I and World. War II. After a strenu- ous tussle, the old-timers proved their mettle, and victory went to the World War I veterans. Horseshoe Pitching Popular A doubles horseshoe pitching con- test was another feature event, with so many entries that the final round was not reached until well on into the evening. In the final, which had to be decided on a single game, the honors went to Sid Canfield and Al Elliott, who defeated Don Cornish and Jack Brisbois by a score of 21 to 20 in a game which found the two coup- les tied entering the last end. Many of the picknickers enjoyed swimming and bathing in the pool, this providing a kindly re- spite from the heat of the sun. At the supper hour, the hundreds of Legionnaires and their families settled down around tables under the trees to enjoy their outdoor meal, and to have a period of hap- py fellowship for which Legion events are noted. It was general- ly agreed that the picnic was one of the most successtul yet held by the Oshawa Branch of the Legion, thanks to the splendid organizing work done by Comrade William Beaton and his committee.

Sons Of Scotland From Toronto Picnic At Lake An enjoyable picnic was held at Lakeview Park on Saturday rfter- noon and evening by Robert Burns Camp No. 1, Sons of Scotland Be- nevolent Association, of Toronto. The picnic party travelled from Toronto in two busses, arriving early in the afternoon, and remained until dusk. There were races and games for old and young; and a sumptuous picnic supper was served under the shade of the beautiful trees in the park. Chief William Oliver, Chief- tain Thomas Hurston, and Past Chief M. McIntyre Hood took charge of an excellent program, ably assisted by Brothers Thomas John- son, Ian Cowan, and Harry Rollo. Members of the Camp were en- thusiastic in their praise of Lake- view Park as a location for their annual picnic. % Most Impressive Service Is Very Largely Attended With colorful and impressive ceremonies, and with a great congregation of reverent worshippers in attendance, the beautiful new church edifice of the St. John's Ukrainian Greek-Orthodox Church was the glory of God on Sunday. consecrated and dedicated to The Most Rev. Archbishop Mstyslaw of St. Nicholas Monastery, Grimsby, head of the church for Canada, performed the ceremonies of conpsecra- tion and dedication, and celebrated Pontifical Mass in the new church. He was assisted by Rev. Father William Olynyk of St. John's Church; Rev. F. . S. Nagalas, of St. Nicholas Monastery, Grimsby, who was ordained as a priest of the church during the course of the service, Rev, F. Eatomir, who has recently arrived in Canada from Europe, and Dea~ con G. Tocenuk, of Toronto. & * Faith In God Will Remove Need For Fear Drawing an analogy from the story of Lot apd Abraham, Kev Ernest J. Robertson, B.A, BD, pastor of King Street United Church, spoke last night at the sa- cred open air service at the Mc- Laughlin band shell in Memorial Park. Lot's search for wealth and power and worldly things eventually led to his undoing. If, like Abraham, we were willing to face the unknown armed only with faith in God we have nothing to fear. About 100 to 150 people were present at the service which. took about 40 minutes. Rev. F. J. White- ley, minister of Centre Street Un- ited Church, presided. Norman Wil- liams conducted the choir. There were several hymns includ- ing "Abide With Me" and "He Lead- eth Me" after which Mr. Whiteley led in prayer. Mr. Robertson chose his text from Genesis: "Where are you going". Lot pitched his tent toward Soddom whereas Abraham went out not knowing where he was going and with only his faith in God The city of Soddom was symbolic of a way of life which included money, pleasure, power and privil- ege. These things to Lot were su- preme and -he was prepared to struggl®yfor them. He was given a choice and wishing to take advan- tage of aging Abraham, he chose these things. Soddom. eventually burned and its raging fire and brim- stone were symbolic of what will happen to those who follow Lot's way. The pil'ar of salt and all the disasters which eventually befell him were indicative of the useless- ness of a worldly life. Abraham, on the other hand, taking second choice in selection of a way of life, was prepared to face the unknown desert and seek the City of God. He was ready to make his way into the unknown with only his faith in God to sustain him. If we were ready to face the unknown and keep our faith in God then, said Mr. Robertson, we need not be afraid. Victory Park Is Opened For 1950 Season Victory Park, the last of Osh- awa's ten Neighborhood Associa- tions to get under way for the sum- mer of 1950, held its official open- ing Saturday in perfect weather. While the attendance was not as large as had been expected, owing to a clash in dates with the open- ing of the nearby St. John's Ukrain- jan Church, a good crowd was on hand at 3 p.m. to see C.R.A.'s Area Director Bill Smith pitch the first ball to Mayor Michael Starr in a softball game between the UA W.A. | and Duplate Girls. After a (ard- fought game, the laurels went' to the Union girls by a score of 22-8. Throughout the afternoon and evening there was bingo, penny toss, games of chance and refreshments for all comers, and the ball game was followed by races for children and adults. The evening session featured a children's variety show with Harry Ross as M.C. and George Norrish at the piano, and with talent provided both by Victory Park and by the Oshawa Children's Theatre. Includ- ed on' the bill were five-year-old Billy Ellegett, Bathe Park's Bever- ley Beevor, a team of Ukrainian dancers, the well-known Hortchik twins, and Victory Park's eight- year-old dancer Barbara Stanley. In declaring Victory Park official- ly open for the year 1950, C.R.A.'s Director of Recreation Alan Quin reminded the crowd that the word "park" meant the people more than the place, and that if the residents of the Victory Park Neighborhood Association really got behind the executive, they would have a park second to none. The evening concluded with round and square dancing, with Ralph Taylor doing the calling and music by Bud Rogers and members of his Motor City Ramblers, INJURED IN FALL Peterborough, July 10 -- Wesley Mortbn, 44, R.'R. No. 1, Pontypool, was admitted®to Peterborough Civic Hospital Saturday 'night with a severe back injury, The farmer was hurt when he fell from the top of a load of hay and landed on the barn floor: In addition to the large congre- gation of members of the church, there were scores of visiting wore shippers from Toronto, Grimsby, Hamilton and other places in One tario, representing other congrega- tions of the Greek-Orthodox Church. Assisting in the mass, and making a splendid musical contri- bution to the beauty of the service was the choir of St. John's Church, under the leadership of George Skibinicky, who recently arrived from a D.P, camp in Europe, and who, in a short time, has welded together a splendid musical group. Praise For Congregation Speaking to the congregation at the dedication service, Archbishop Mstyelaw praised very highly the congregation of St. John's Church, commending the members for their faithfulness and loyalty, and for their perseverénce and progress in the building of their splendid new church. It was a great tribute to their religious faith, he said, that they had erected so beautiful a house to the glory of God, and for their services of worship, and he counselled them to remain faithful to the things for which their church stood. The Ukrainian people, said the Archbishop, had a fine culture which had come down to them through the centuries, and had a great contribution to' make to the life of Canada. He urged them to be true to the highest ideals of the Christian religion, and to live pure lives, so that they would be re< spected by the other citizens of Canada, and would play their part in the building of a great nation in their new land. Followed Old Custom Following the custom which is typical of the Greek-Orthodox churches, in many parts of East- ern Europe, most of the congrega- tion stood throughout the three~ hour service, with only the older people sitting in the front of the church. After the service, the Archbishop and his assistants formed into pro- cession, and led by the choir, sing- ing appropriate music, marched around the church, which receive ed the blessing of His Grace. Splendid Luncheon At the close of the ceremonies, | the large gathering of people ase sembled in the two church halls for luncheon, an excellent meal being served by. the ladies of the Parish, John Stezik, chairman of the build ing committee which had successe fully completed the building of the church, acted as chairman for the lengthy program of speeches. In his opening remarks, Mr. Stezik | said the joy of the congregation at | the dedication of their new church | knew no bounds, and this was a | glorious day in the history of the church. He expressed. thanks to Anthony Mayer, the builder of the church, for his splendid co-opera- tion and for the beautiful edifice he had erected. He also thanked the committee members for their loyal and harmonious work. Rev, Father Olynyk introduced the distinguished guests present, and also congratulated the congre- gation on the splendid effort it has made. He urged them to stick to- gether as they had done in past years, and be faithful to their church. i Greetings From Community Mayor Michael Starr had a warm word of congratulation for the con- gregation, which, he said, had made great sacrifices to make the new church possible. Rev. E. H. McLellan, of Holy Trinity Anglican Church, present as a guest, paid a warm tribute to Rev. Father Olynyk, who had work ed hard to build up the faith of the congregation. The new building was an eloguent testimony to his rfforts. HE wished the congrega= tion continued success in its new home. Walter C. Thomson, M.P. for On- tario Riding, also congratulated the congregation on the excellence of its work and its great achievement. He urged the members to be true Canadians, to fear God and honor the King. Church, home and school together, he said, were the things through which a sound democracy could be built, Democracy was not a one-way street It gave privi- Jeges and rights, but also imposed responsibilities and obligations which must be met to make this country a worthy place in which to live. M. McIntyre Hood, in commends ing the congregation for its come pletion of a great labor of love, ree called the day. of fifteen years ago when the church was organized in the old warehouse, and congratue lated the people on the loyalty and faithfulness which had made their great progress possible. He exe pressed the hope that the church would become in every way a temple of God to the south end of the City of Oshawa. Communish Attacked Many of the distinguished guests from other points spoke briefly, and Archbishop Mstyslaw also spoke to the gathering. Pointing to the trage OSHAWA CHURCH (Continued on Page 2)
