CORBETT News Editor PHONE 703 Inspiring Address Honors Motherland On St. George's Day "Qur world is just beginning to realize how great is that role England has played in international affairs for centuries and what a debt we owe to the Motherland," said Rev. Arthur Whitby Day By Day Accounts of social events, aay news items of local Interest amd of v are inted PHONE 703 Ld 4 COTTAGES SURROUNDED It will be about the middle of June or later before any appreci- able lowering of the lake level takes place, it is believed. Though A. Chote of Millbank speaking last night at a largely-attend- ed service in All Saints' Anglican Church.. It was a choral service of a patriotic nature to mark St. George's Day. | "Even though England's record gy has not been blameless at all times, England has done her best to put her Christian democratic principles into practice," said Mr. Chote. "England's suffering today is being well borne by her people in the knowledge of what will be accom- plished by it." Mr. Chote noted that the United States, as a world power of the day, is taking over some responsibility in international affairs but is "learning the hard way." The U.S. is turning to England for advice. For England has paid dearly for what she has learned in the past and the English way is worth fol- Jowing. As a prelude to the address of the evening, Rev, A. G. Channen con- cisely stated the purpose of the ser- vice -- to remind oneself of those qualities which have made the British Empire great and to keep them in sight during times of dif- ficulty and uncertainty. The Patron Saint Then Mr. Chote carried on the theme of the evening. He sald that there is little actual recorded his- tory concerning St. George but a few lines about many men. There are many saints whose names are not known. Nevertheless, these per- sonalities 'will be no less in the lingdom of Heaven. However, it is known that St. gorge was "born of Christian rents." Mr. Chote affirmed that ais fact is the key to the secret of 18 entire life and certainly sup- rted his martyrdom in the Chris- n cause. "That is a 'truth we might well ecapture and apply," said the speaker. "There is no better way to epare your children for life than to give them careful Christian in- struction. In this preparation for fe, the Sunday School can play a jor part." ' "The patron saint of England chose soldiering as a profession and rose to a high rank. His-occupation was carried on to the glory of God. We Christians today can also do our work, whatever it may be, to the lory of our Maker. But the Romans came, and St. George suffered tor- tures for his faith and died as a martyr: We do well to remember that the Christian life involves both sacrifice and suffering, and that is often necessary on a national scale." Concluding: "Beset by the grave problems of the world, Christians must still remember that it will not | be by atomic power or by balance | of power among nations that inter- | national problems will be resolved, | but by the spirit of the Lord being | allowed to bring peace and live in the hearts of men. Today, England as a nation is down on her knees but she is not through, because the nation {is built upon a spiritual basis that will see it through." Combined Choirs The organist and choirleader, Mrs. F. W. Marsh, arranged music ap- propriate to the occasion. Her pre- lude consisted of a medley of English airs. The soloist of the evening, Miss Joan Wilson sang "O Peaceful England." The choir nuim- bers, excellently rendered by the combined choirs of St. John's and All Saints' were: "Magnificat and Dunc Dimittis" by Rev. F. G. Plumber and "Jubilate" by Bassford. Rev. A. G, Channen was in charge of the service, and was assisted by Rev. James E. Harvey of 8t. John's, Port Whitby, and Prof. C. E. Olive, lay reader. The Whithy Boy Scouts and Girl Guides attended the service in a body.

While trying out a car from a used car lot, Johnston attempted to turn from Dundas to Byron Street but is said to have lost control of the vehicle. It struck a parked car belonging to John M. Roblin. Damage was not extensive. Sergeant M. C. Banks in a variey of activities. investigated. Boys and girls in the age range from 18 to 15 enter High School as children and leave it as young adults, During this period there occurs the greatest development of the individual, both mentally and physically, In these years, young people develop a new set of inter- ests. They engage in a variety of competitive sports; they find social functions more attractive; and they exhibit maturity by taking part in a variety of organizations. Because they are almost adults, the program must be more complex than in elementary school. Because they are still not adults they can- not run their own program alone as in university. When extra-curricular activities become part of the daily program all students and staff par. ticipate and, on an equal basis, share the benefit from it. This forms the basis for community life and living within the school. A shorten- ed lunch period makes it possible to include these activities in the school day before the buses take the children home. A great deal of wise supervision is necessary. There are just about 100 differ- ent things that can be done in extra-curricular activities: sports, collectors' clubs, literary, art, music, drama, hobbies, dancing and various other student-operated organizations. Students learn, among other things, how to take responsibility, how to get along with people, how to re- spect and tolerate the rights and opinions of others. They learn to speak before groups and to broaden the interests of the shy and intro- verted. Hobbles quite frequently develop into a steady occupation and a means of livelihood. Best of all extra-curricular activi- ties create a happy school atmos- phere and a strong school spirit. This spirit of co-operation has a carry-over value into the classroom academic work and even out into a preparation for living a full life as a happy responsible citizen.

Less than one year after the new five-room public school was opened, classrooms be- came so crowded that it was necessary to reopen the base- ment room in King Street School. According to the figures on registration of beginners compiled last week, the public school population will increase by at least 40 next year. And there is reason to believe the upward trend will continue. If any one of several hoped-for industries build in Whitby, the school accommodation problem will become more than acute. Whitby is only one of many Ontario communities facing the same problem. Locally, the question of building more accommodation has not yet been discussed, as far as is known. However, it is known that Hillcrest school was designed so that several classrooms could be added without the heavy expense of designing and building a whole new school. . The whole problem is one which should be worked out before the situation becomes critical. On the other hand, the Whitby District High School Board has been aware for some years that it will be having a heavy influx from public schoel at a foreseeable time. The withdrawal of most Pickering and Ajax pupils:next year will mean that High School crowding will be abated for a short period. At the same time, the Board has been actively con- sideriny sites for more than a year, and when one is obtained, there is no doubt they will go on to building plans for the purpose of being prepared when the necessity to build does arise. Many Brooklin Events During Past Week MRS A. DYER Correspondent Monday, April 16, twelve members of the = Young People' Union of the Brooklin United Church motored to Toronto tor Wesley United Church where clothing is being packed in bales to ship to Korea. Bedding, and Brooklin wearing apparel has been sent here from all parts of Canada to be sorted and shipped overseas. In Toronto the wearing apparel is sorted into units of: Infants wear, Childrens 3-8 years, boys, girls mens and women's clothing. All pockets have to be searched and then the article put into a stall designated winter or summer wear. The Young People take the cloth- ing from these stalls and carefully fold and pile them on cribs 36 inches wide and 24 inches deep. When crib is filled they are wheel- ed into another room where they are put through a baler, Bales are made a uniform weight of approxi- mately one hundred pounds are tagged and wrapped in jute and are then ready for shipping tp Korea where the need is so great. This work of: sorting and bailing is done by volunteer workers from different organizations and the work goes on nearly every evening im the week. The Brooklin Young People hope to contribute another evening for this worthy work in the near future. The Brooklin Young People taking part in this missionary pro- ject under the direction of Miss Eunice Phyfrom were: Lois Harris, Norma Harris, Verna Sonley, Anne Goodwin, Merle Ormiston, Red Johnston, Allan Mackey, Raymond Hodson, Donald Patterson, Jeof- frey Holt, John Medland, and Rev. M. C. Fisher. Study Japan Mrs. C. Wilson opened her home for the April meeting of the Woman's Missionary Society of the Brooklin° United Church when Mrs. W. A. Heron was in charge of the study and Mrs. M. C. Fisher conducted the Worship under the theme "The war for Love and Peace". Miss Luella Mowbray as- sisted Mrs. Fisher in this service. The Study "Which way Japan" dealt with problems facing Japan and of the share the Christian Church in Canada may assume. This study was conducted as a "Court of Opinion" with two mem- bers presenting the affirmative and two the negative sides of the subject discussed. Following these discussions the group voted as to their decision on the various ques- tions. The questions "Is Japan's desire for peace genuine? Will she adopt communism? Should she be permitted to increase her trade with North America? Is there a great future for the Christian Church in Japan?" Those assist- ing in the discussion were Mrs. C. Pilkey, Mrs. E. Acton, Mrs. N. J. White and Miss A. Oliver. Mrs. C. Wilson presided for the business session when Mrs. Hodson reported for Christian Citizenship and Miss Edna Burton for Chris- tion Stewardship. Gifts for babies 'Ajax Recreation Hall. Choristers Will Sing At Ajax St. Michael's Cathedral boy chor- isters, of Toronto, directed by Msgr. J. E. Ronan, will give a choral concert next Friday evening in The program will run from the ancient Gregorian chant and the 16th century polyphony of Pale- strina and Vittoria, of which they have made a specialty, to more recent religious and secular music of many nations, They will sing in Latin, English, French and Italian and in works drawn from great composers like Tschalkowsky, Mozart, Hayden, Mendelssohn and Schumann. The concert will cele- brate the 26th anniversary of Msgr. Ronan's founding of the choir. 'The choir school; where some 150 boys are taught regular studies, play the usual sports and live the liturgical life serving as choristers, organists and sanctuary boys at the cathedral and other catholic churches throughout the city, is a unique institution in Canada. The choristers, Canadian boys of every national origin and ranging from eight to 15, are chosen by competitive tests, They are housed in a beautiful new choir school building with clessrooms, studios and auditorium equipped with pipe organ. The spiritual centre of the- school is the chapel where daily mass is held. ' Msgr. Ronan, whose own liturgi- cal compositions bulk large in the choir's repertoire, explains his choristers are well known outside their church duties through inter- national concert tours and radio broadcasts, Last Christmas, they took part in the "Army Show" broadcast to troops in Korea. The choir school provides adult evening classes and a summer school attended by choirmasters, organists and school teachers throughout Canada. Rangers, Rough Riders, Red Devils, History Of Whitby Subject Of Address To OLC Alumnae ® A 4 Mrs. James Carnwith opened her home in Brooklin to the Junior Group of the Castle Chapter Alum~ nae of the Ontario Ladies' College and their friends, last Wednesday evening, for the Chapter's April meeting. After a short business period the president, Miss Audrey Lawler, introduced Mrs, C. R. Carscallen, the speaker of the evening, who gave an exceptionally interesting talk on "The Two Whithys." Of Whitby, England, she told many fascinating facts. The Danes gave it its present name, White Bay or Whitby. Its history is preserved by Bede, and the Abey at Whitby is connected with the first poetry in England written by Caedmon. One legend of St. Hilda tells how she rid the town of snakes by pray- ing their heads off and turning them to stone. Three snake coils are used in the Town Crest and also on the cover of St. Hilda's School magazine, "The Ammonite." It will be remembered that a number of St. Hilda's pupils spent part of the war years at O. L. C. Captain Cook sailed from the Port of Whitby in his sailing ship, "Resolution," which was built there. Many interesting facts were. also told of Whitby, Canada. The district from Trent to York was surveyed in 171, The surveyor who was given the job was a Yorkshireman named Augustus Jones and he changed the names of the little settlements al} along the lakefront from those which had been decided upon, to Yorkshire names--Darlington, Port Whitby, Liverpool, Pickering, York. In the early days Port Whitby was a busy part for shipping grain and lumber from the North, and Hamer's Corners (a mile east of town) was a settlement, while Whitby itself was nothing. Then, with the build- ing of the Kingston Road, in 1800, and the coming of Peter Perry who arrived and built a store at its inter- section with the North Road, where Allin's Drug Store is now situated, Perry's Corners came into being. In Obituary CHARLES D, JONES Mr. Charles D. Jones died at his home in Goodwood on Friday, April 13, after a brief illness. He was born in West Flamboro village, attended Dundas High School and graduated from MacMaster University. He taught school for a number of years, and for the last fifteen years kept a grocery store in Goodwood.
