TUESDAY, JANUARY 23, 1951 THE DAILY T IMES-GAZETTE PAGE FIVE Home and School Group Enjoys Social Evening MRS. M. A. DYER Correspondent Brooklin, Jan. 3--The regular meeting of the Home and School Association was held in the school auditorium Tuesday, evening' and for this, the first meeting of 1951, a social evening of court whist was enjoyed by about forty interested parents and friends. Mrs. Ray Hall, | president of th Home and School association presided and Mr. R. Hall acted as master of ceremonies, ex- plaining rules in moving. Men wer: in the minority and for this reason the gentlemen's first prize was won by Mrs, Davies and the consolation prize of a corn cob pipe went to Mrs. Draper. Ladies' first prize was won by Mrs. J. Good- win and the consolation prize, a key ring, was taken home by Mrs. J. H. McKinr>y. : After th: whist the tables were arranged in sets of three and every- one enjoyed the dainty lunch and | cup of tea the luncheon ccmmittee provided. Quite a few remembered | their cups and saucers and they were gratefully accepted. This month the Home and School plaque signifying which room had the largest number of parents at- tending the meeting was won for the month of January by Mrs. Gray's room. Mrs. Gray te ches the begin- ners, Grades 1 and 2. R.C.M.Y. Officer Speaks Last Friday evening, quite a few adults, the pupils of Brooklin public and continuation school and pupils from nearby schools were entertain- ed in the Township Hall by Corporal Fox of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Corp. Fox came to Brooklin through the invitazion of the Home and School Association. It seems that even the cars of the R.C.M.P. can develop trouble and cause delays and so when he failed to arrive at the scheduled time Mrs. L. Blight and several of the older girls of the school led in a sing-song. Mrs. W. Heron and Mrs. ¢. Batty then en- tertained the children with a -quizz and several games. The men ad- journed to the basement but soon re-assemtled wheh the Coli oral arrived soon after 9:30 p.m. The projector and sound cabinet were soon instaiied and adults and children alike enjoyed the films on the training of police dogs at Rock- cliffe Ont., a cartoon of "Woody Woodpecker" and then scenes from the barracks, and the beautiful musical ride of the police horses at Regina, Sask. As the hour was la.e and the majority of the aud- ience children the scheduled film and talk was not given. Mr. Fox or another member of the force will return at a later date and give this film and talk and as it deals with the work of the Mounties in the No.th West it should be very inter- esting and it is hoped that the adults will all turn out to see it. These films and the men accomp- any.ng them are sent as a public service in the hope of teaching the lounger people the value of dicipline nd integrity. Hold Skating Party The Young Adults Class of the United Church held a skating party Wednesday evening, January 17, at the Brooklin Memorial Arena. De- spite the unfavorable weather every- one enjoyed the skating. After some time was spent skailng the young people adjourned to the Sunday School room where lunch was served by the committee. Those serving on tne committee were Mr. and Mrs, D. Mitchell, Mr. and Mrs. B. Mitch- ell. Mr. and Mrs. C. Banks and Miss Verna Dowse. A short business period was conducted and the meet- ing adjourned. A 'very successful afternoon tea was held Friday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Alfred Wilson. It was one of a series of "Diminishing Teas" being held by the members of the Sunshine Group of the Wo- man's Association of the United Church.

A pot .luck supper will be held enext Monday evening, January 20th, n the basement of the St. Thomas 'Anglican Church.

"I have personally acted as superintendent for a year now, and find that the demand on my time is more than I can reasonably give along with my othar work. I would like young men and women To oiier their services for thi work and share the responsibility, The attend- ance at the School has increased during the past year, We have a good school and good teachers, but more of the latter are needed," he said.

During 19050 a completely new fence was built on the north and east, boundaries of Alexandra Park. In most cases the owners of prop- erty adjoining the section of the fence in question, reimbursed the board with half of the cost. How- ever, in some cases payment has not as yet been made and should be received during the current year, In-May, our old dump truck, No, 3, was turned in and a new vehicle purchased in its place which should give several years of satisfactory service, The number of park board em ployees during 1950 reached a peak of 18 during August and September and at the present moment there are 10 on the staff. Difficulty with Rinks A considerable amount of money has been spent during the past year in endeavouring to have rinks in shape for skating and hockey purposes, However, with the weather which was experienced, satisfactory results were certainly not achieved. Another attempt is being made during the current winter, but so far the same results have been obtained. . Once again last year the track at Alexandra Park was oiled, much to the satisfaction, we believe, of the residents in the vicinity, At Lakeview Park last year, the old Henry House was renovated at cost of approximately $2,000 and is now well preserved externally. Playground equipment was put in operation in the Patricia Tot Park last June; this area now fills a long felt need of the people in this dis- trict. Playground equipment was also added in Valleyview Park. An- i other major expenditure at this point was the installation of a water supply. We have made mention above of only the major items of expendi- ture during the year under review, In addition to the items mentioned, normal maintenance was carried on in every area under the jurisdiction of this board to the fullest extent possible with the funds at our disposal.
