PAGE FOUR THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1950 J.H. ORMISTON Editor and Manager PHONE 703 - WHITBY AND DISTRICT NEWS ROBT. CORBETT News Editor PHONE 703 Women's Auxiliaries East York Deanery Meet At Port Whitby Delegates to the thirty-first an- nual conference of East York Dean- ery Women's Auxiliary held in St. John's Church at Port Whitby yes- terday were urged to pray for China more earnestly than they had ever prayed before, Mrs, Wil- liam Andrews, of Toronto, who spent thirty years in that country, coming home in 1944. Welcome nevis imparted to the women was at the province of Honan, despite t is Communist invasion and control, loyal Christians are still carrying on with their work in and through the churches, and the day and bible schools, and have not so far been interfered with, There was doubt, she said, as to what the Commu- nists might do, but so far the work started and cultured by mission= aries goes on. In a tremendous sense we must pray for China as we never have prayed before," Mrs. Andrews declared. She spoke a word. of warm appreciation of the work the Women's Auxiliaries are doing, but stressed the point that prayer was of paramount importance. There was reason for thankfulness for the manner in which Christian work goes on in China. "It is a wonder- ful, despite what China has gone through in two wars and in the Communist invasion many Chris- tians there are seeking to glorify their Master and carry on His work," Mrs. Andrews added. Large Representation - Senior and junior auxiliary in the Deanery were well represented at the Conference, and the many re- ports given at the afternoon session covered such work as ship- ping bales of clothing to Indian boarding schools; donations to home and foreign mission enterprises of the Anglican Church; contributions to the Manitoba Flood Relief Fund, many parcels of food sent to Britain and helpful meetings held throughout the year, There was one disquieting note in one of .two of the reports, and it was that some auxiliaries' are finding it difficult to obtain girl leaders in fields where much important work can be done. The report from Uxbridge noted that the Auxiliary there was forced to give up the girls' auxiliary because of lack of leadership. Those Represented Auxiliaries were represented from Whitby, Port Whitby, Brooklin, Oshawa, (three churches), Agin- court, Dunbarton, Markham, Amor- eaux, Port Perry, West Hill, Stouff- ville, Uxbridge and Wexford. One hundred and three delegates were registered. The conference was presided over by Deanery Officer Mrs. S. W, Wotton, of Oshawa, who during the forenoon on recom- mendation of the nominating committee was elected for a second term, as a recognition of the splen- did service she has rendered. Celebrate Holy Communion At the opening of the session Rev. James Harvey, rector of St. John's at Port Whitby, officiated at the celebration of Holy Com- munion, assisted by Rev, Gordon Channen, of All Saints' Church, Whitby, Rural Dean of East York. The message was brought by Rev. Mr. Harvey from the text, "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God¥' There was a business © meeting following lunch and the election of the Deanery Officer. It was decided the next Conerence will be held in Holy Trinity Church, Oshawa, next September. The address of welcome was given by Miss Emma Goldring, of St. John's Church Auxiliary, Port Whitby, and in it she expressed pleasure that so many had found time to attend. She hoped that they would find their brief stay here profitable, In her address Mrs. Andrews added a further note of encour- agement when she told of meeting a friend from China recently who ventured the opinion that Chris- tianity would prevail over Com- (Continued on Page 6) Plan Meeting Of Chamber Of Commerce Whitby Chamber of Commerce plans its opening meeting of the season on Thursday evening next, September 28th, at the Town Hall.

Orillia's New Treatment Plant Has Major Break The Canada Gunite Company | Limited of Montreal is engaged in attempting to repair the broken- down digestive system at Orillia's municipal seweage disposal plant, construction of which was just com- pleted a year ago at a cost of about $365,000. v The digestive part of the plant broke down some time ago, said to be due to leakage of one of the ten large tanks where chemicals dis- posed of the sewage. Besides let- ting out gas from the chemicals, the breaks allowed water in, caus- ing some cracks in the cement work 'of the plant, it was said. Water also seeped up through the | floor. Cost of the repairs is estimated at $16,000.

CARNIVAL SUCCESSFUL A very good attendance supported Pickering Rotary Club Carnival on Wednesday night. The big show was held on Church Street and partly on the Vern Disney property. A draw was held for a number of small prizes. Proceeds will go to Crippled Children's work and Ro- tary projects. * + % WILL APPEAL One of the actions slated for hearing at the County Court non- jury sittings in Whitby on October 2, is a speeding charge appeal which the Crown is appealing on behalf of Pickering Township Police. In magistrate's court, the charge was dismissed on the grounds that Editorial Comment Optimistic Civic Financing If the Council of 1951 can, as predicted by Councillor Mace, hold the tax rate at its present level and take care of the deficit incurred this year, admitted by Mayor Harry Jermyn at the ratepayers' meeting last week to stand now at $11,500, it will be doing wonders and will earn the grati- tude of the heavily burdened taxpayers. We would like to share the optimism of Councillor Mace, and hope that if returned as a member of the civic adminis- tration next year he will remind his colleagues of his pre- diction, and of his optimistic, financial faith expressed last week. Somehow or another we fancy that the deficit will be much larger than now anticipated, for the Council has just recently been faced with demands for increased wages from employees of the Corporation which, in the face of advanc- ing living costs, and the wages paid by many private indus- tries, cannot be ignored. The ratepayers cannot blame the Council for any increases that have been made or may be still made before the end of the year. The anticipated in- creased deficit will add to the financial difficulties of the 1951 Council, and it will take some tall financing and many economies to prevent a tax rate increase. Coun. Mace is figuring on more revenue from increased assessments which will come in the normal course this year as the result of the town's growth, and we hope that some extra change from this source rolls into the civic treasury. It will be fine if the road and sidewalks improvement programme begun this year can be continued next year without extracting more money from the pockets of the taxpayers, as intimated by Coun. Mace. Perhaps it is only fair to point out here that part of the deficit this year can be fully. chalked up a decrease in anticipated revenue from some sources, also to a few jobs that had to be done that were not budgeted for. The overall picture at this time, as pointed out by The Times-Gazette last week, is for a sizeable deficit this year. How it is to be taken care of is a matter for the next Coun- cil's consideration. How it was incurred will probably be fully explained at the nomination meeting. RADIO SERVICE {§ GUARANTEED -- IMMEDIATE | BUTT RADIO | & APPLIANCE 130 Brock St. N.

Paper Salvage By Boy Scouts On Saturday Cellars of hundreds of houses in Whitby are bulging with the lations of old newspapers which, in colder months, would have found their way into kitchen stoves. With this "in mind, the Boy Scouts have booked next Saturday for their first fall blitz on waste paper. All the householder has to do in order to get rid of his paper "for free" is to place it in securely in bundles which a cardboard boxes, or tie it sturdy boy can hoist, and then place it out near the roadside by nine in the morning. The Scouts will take over from there. From the salvage, there will be certain financial proceeds which the Scouts will put to good use. Boy Scouts do not solicit money --they work for it, sour stomach, flatulence--take a Digestif Rennie Tablet. Quick-acting RENNIES contain antacid ingredients which help relieve indigestion fast.

When a hearty meal gives you heartburn, Rinks Future Uncertain There are no new developments concerning the future of Taylor's Arena. It is not known yet what skating and hockey may be avail- able in Whitby in the coming win- ter. The rink has not yet been sold. It is extremely unlikely that it will be operated by Mr. Taylor and it appears unlikely that it will be rented to any local organiza- tion. Following a cursory investigation by the town couucil last spring, it was decided that the town should not purchase the rink to be operat- ed by the municipality, However, whether or not this viewpoint rep- resented that of citizens-at-large, is not known. It was then suggested that a plebiscite vote should be taken to determine public reaction to purchase by the town, but the matter was let drop early this year. With an election in the offing, Some sources say it is possible that the rink question will be submitted as a plebiscite. They say that pub- lic feeling should be made known through a vote on such an im- portant matter. Outdoor rinks would not provide a satisfactory answer to the hockey problem unless substantial funds are provided for their construction and maintenance. Midget Play-offs Proceed Monday Monday night will see: another game in the Midget baseball play- offs at Whitby Town Park. So far, the Red Sox lead the Athletics by one game.
