THURSDAY, ®CYOBER 26, 1950 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE FIVE , WHITBY NEWS Editorial Comment And Who Is My Neighbor? "Two thousand years have passed since this question was asked of the Master of Men, and answered in the familiar parable of the Good Samaritan. He that showed mercy to the traveller who was robbed, wounded on the Jericho road, and not the man who saw the robbers victim and passed by on the other side, was declared to be a neighbour. The Master's declaration holds good to-day. Every life has its Jericho road, affording many opportunities to piay the part of the good, kind, sympathetic, understanding neighbour. The declaration has a direct bearing on the joint appeal of eight Whitby community welfare organizations being made by the Community Chest Committee, this week, and up until November 4th. Your neighbor may be the bright boy or girl who has been taken in hand by the Boy Scout and Girl Guide or- ganizations for training which will develop their bodies and minds, and make of them useful, honourable citizens of the future. Your neighbor may be the man or woman, boy or girl who benefits from the skilful and kindly service of the Victorian Order of Nurses when they are sick, and, who through no fault of their own, may be unable to contribute anything toward that service. Your neighbor is, perchance, one who suffers from that greatest of all afflictions -- blindness -- but who, groping in the shadows, may need kindly, tangible help towards the pathway of independence, or to a brighter, happier outlook on life. Your neighbor may be the man or woman, poor and destitute, or in need of help in numerous ways through the many social welfare agencies of the Salvation Army Red Shield which operate in Whitby and elsewhere. Your neighbor, although not close at hand, may be in the Motherland, suffering for lack of sufficient and proper food, to whom Whitby 1.0.D.E. sends food parcels every month, Your neighbor may be the man who served his King and country in two great world conflagrations, returning dis- abled, or the widow and children, or other dependents of the man who paid the supreme sacrifice, who may need the helping hand of the Canadian Legion, and there are such in Whitby. Within the scope of the recreational programme of the Whitby Recreation Association you may also find a neighbor whom you know can or already has benefitted from that program which is one of Whitby's valuable community services. Boys and girls, men and women of all ages can Steelworkers Vote $25 To Whitby Chest One of the first contributors to the Whitby Community Chest fund was Local 2458, United Steelworkers of America which voted $25 from its treasury. Representing employ- ees of the Whitby Malleable Iron and Brass Company, the Union also urged its members to make generous donations to the fund. Last night's meeting began pre- liminary on changes to the Union's agreement with the Company. Notice must be given Dec. 1 of any changes and the local's next meeting will have to approve all amendments so these can be sent to the management, Business Men Of Claremont Plan Activitie EDWARD J. LEWL Correspondent Claremont, Oct. 25 -- The Clare- mont Business Men's Association met in the office of the president, Mr. Charles Cooper, on Monday evening last. It could be that the public in general is not just aware. of just what the Claremont Business Mens' Association is trying to accom- plish, 'It is only a little over twelve months ago that the small group of business men in Claremont formed themselves into an Asso- ciation with the idea in mind of improving conditions in and around Claremont, especially for the young- er folk, Since their formation, the Asso- ciation has sponsored a Hallowe'en party free to the children of the community. This was followed by free candies, nuts and gifts at the Santa Claus Parade. Then too, during the last winter a rink was commenced at the school and although it was not pos- sible to finish it in time for ac- tivities during last winter, it is hoped to have it completed soon so that the school children will have the full benefit during this coming winter, Next, the Association sponsored a swimming class during the past summer for school children of a certain age, of which Mr. Howard Langlille, of nearby Skyloft was en- gaged and appointed instructor. "The results of Mr. Langille's ef- forts are shown clearly when, in & swimming test in the Y.W.C.A. in Toronto a week or two ago, thir- teen out of twenty-three passed a decidedly stiff test--a test which some have been swimming for years stated they would hesitate to un- dertake, In addition to these efforts al- ready stated the Association is at present undertaking the task of raising funds to instal a floodlight system in the local = Community Park so that baseball can be play- ed under the lights, a project which, no doubt the public will hear more about in the near fu- ture, Attendance at Church and Sun- day-8chool were both down on Sunday last, due, no doubt to the epidemic of chicken-pox which is gripping our village at the present The brick dwelling in the north- end of the village, formerly occu- pied by Mr, Joe Farr, is up for sale again. It is only just recently that the present occupants purchased it and moved in. Dr. Bill Tomlinson also has a "For Sale" sign on his property. This would 'seem to suggest that the doctor has other plans than settling in Claremont. Whatever those plans may be the Commun- ity wishes him the best of luck. A successful sale of household furniture etc, was laid last Satur- day at the home formerly occupied by Mr. John Coates, just east of the Four Corners. We are given to understand, however that the bid on the real estate did not come up to the reserve bid placed on it. Mrs, Fred Ward is staying at her daughter Jean's home in Orillia for a few days. Mr. Grant 'Laylor, of North End Groceries is noticed to be sporting a new car around thé village. HONOR TO SMUTS Johannesburg--(CP)--The square in front of the city hall here, where the late Field Marshal Jan Smuts was given the freedom of the city last May, will in future be known officially as the "Jan Smuts Square.' Various old buildings are being torn down to clear the area. get something from this programme. Money, however, is required to keep it in operation. The Whitby Community Chest is appealing in the spirit of neighborliness, for the sum of $6,045. It is a co-operate effort in which all can share. It is a very modest sum when one considers the amount of money that seems to be avail- able for other purposes. In the past the town has met its welfare obligations. It can do it again.
