TUESDAY, APRIL 24, 1951 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE FIVE AJAX COMMUNITY NEWS Plans Made For Summer Recreation Ajax, April 23,--In an interview with Mrs. Lucas, member of the Recreation Committee it was learned that definite plans have been arranged for the coming sum- mer . programme. Mrs. Lucas remarked that there had been controversy amongst the people as to what was going to hap- pen at the Recreation Hall. She hoped that the following outline would clarify matters for every one concerned. There will be an adequate sum- mer programme of supervised play- grounds during the months of July and August under the following set-up: '1. Two qualified supervisors who will replace the business manager, who is resigning at the end of May. 3. A group of paid teenagers who will be given a training course. 3. Assistance and advice from Community Programmes, Branch of Department of Education and Oshawa CRA. ' Here is how it will be financed: 1. All organizations or groups using the Hall for money-making projects will be charged 10% of their proceeds. : 2. All clubs using the facilities will pay 10% of their membership fees. 3. Income from Bingos. 4. Income from shows, canteen and ball games. 3 Mrs. Lucas pointed out that by this manner expenses will be kept to the minimum' and the Commit- tee would wait until August until hiring a full-time director for next year, In this way she believed that they will be able to hold their own during the summer. She also men- tioned that the Board of Trustees are asking for names of people will- ing to serve on the new Recreation Committee and that any organiza- tion, group or individual may sub- mit names and the Board of Trus- tees will choose the committee. A meeting will be held, she said, this Thursday, April 26 in the Recreation Hall at 8 p.m. and she invited anyone who is interested to attend.

'\ w Brooklin Events (Continued from Page 4) a very beautiful anthem was ren- dered. Young Adults Meet The Young Adults Class of the Brooklin United Church met last Thursday evening in the Sunday school room of the Church. The meeting was open to all. Lloyd Stanley was in charge of the de- | votional period. Mrs. Stanley led in prayer. Following this the scriptures were read by Roy Jackson. Miss Verna Dowse read a poem. Lyle Stevenson, accom- panied by Everyya Gibson at the piano, song "It is No Secret" which was enjoyed by all. Mrs, Alfred Wilson conducted the session. The committees of both this month and last were thanked for their efforts. The guest speaker of the even- ing Rev. Norman Mackenzie of China was introduced by Rev. M. C. Fisher. Mr. MacKenzie arrived in Canada from China last Decem- ber. He was born in China, his parents being missionaries, but re- ceived his later education in To- ronto, attending college there, His talk was most inspiring and gave a clear picture of conditions and events in China. One felt that mis- sionaries deserve the whole heart- ed support of all who enjoy the high standard of living in Canada and the United States. The band of Christians wha have been form- ed in Asiatic countries form the only true foundation for Peace be- tween them and the western world. At the conclusion of his address Mr. MacKenzie encouraged a ques« tion period, at which time he very capably answered many questions. His enthusiasm for his calling as a missionary and the fact that he had come from Guelph just for this meeting, made all who attend- ed realize that their effort in coming had been very worthwhile. Refreshments Were served by the committee composed of Mr. and Mrs. R. Jackson, Mr. and Mrs, L. Stanley and Mr. and Mrs. L. Prouse. The meeting closed with the Benediction. Home and School The regular monthly meeting of the Brooklin Home and School As- sociation was held in the Brooklin High Sshool last Tuesday evening with 'about 0 members present and Mrs. Ray Hall presiding. Roll call of members showed parents of pupils in Mrs, Grey's room were in the majority so the Home and School plaque will be retained by Mrs. Grey for another month. A very interesting and instructive re- port was received from Mrs, Stevenson and Mrs. E. Lovelock re the Home and School convention they attended as delegates during the Easter holidays. The conven- tion was held in the Royal York Hotel in Toronto and each gave a detailed and instructive account of convention procedure. The speaker of the evening, Miss Chrissie Simpson, was introduced by Mrs. W. Goodwin. Miss Simpson said she felt as though she could start out by saying "Good-morning, boys apd girls," and said it felt quite natural to be standing in front of the class though actually four and a half years have passed since she became a home-maker, to care for her mother who at that time became one of Brooklin's loved shut-ins. Miss "Simpson was re- quested to speak on Religious edu- cation in the home and school and chose as her topic "A lump of clay" stating that as a lump of clay can be moulded in'o some- thing beautiful and with skill and guidance anything may be made, so a child during their formative years absor® all suggestions and it is at this time that a mother is in the best position to guide the wee one and create the Jove of the Heavenly Father in every day acti- vities. Every opportunity should be grasped to give a good sound foundation. Too often the quota- | tion "While, I was busy, they were gone" is true unintentionally the | child is neglected in spiritual wel- fare and before the error is noticed the child is grown and is building his or her character in other ways. Outside influences creep in and for good or evil our young people are moulded while time flies by, in the few short years we are able to direct their steps. The teachers in the school try to put a polish as it were on the work started in the home, Mrs. John Batty thanked Miss Simpson on behalf of the club for her splendid talk and assured her than she * had 'brought many thoughts forward that were too often' overlooked. Anne Goodwin favored the meet- ing with a couple of piano selec- QUICK ASTHMA = Don't wheeze, gasp, cough, fight for breath.

These were very much en- joyed. : Lyle Stevenson, accompanied by Evelyn Gibson on the piano sang two solos "May The Good Lord Bless and Keep You" and "Mocking Bird Hill." These numbers were a real treat and everyone enjoyed them, Mrs. Cunningham expressed the appreciation and thanks of the association to all the young people for their fine entertainment. Lunch was served by the committee and all enjoyed a social time. Shuffleboard Club Once again the Shuffleboard Club closed their season with a very happy celebration, Not only were the Brooklin Members in at- tendance but some 25 from Myrtle were included in the party. Last Tuesday evening at 6:30 p.m. the group, numbeing sixty- five, sat down to a turkey dinner, in the Township Hall and all agreed that it was the best yet. The tables were most attractively arranged with candy favors at each place and the waiters worked dilligently to see that all were served. The outstanding fea- ture was the fact that the men did the work. They may not have made the delicious pies, etc, but they took their places in the kitchen and did a fine job. The committee consisted of Charles Pilkey, Joe Holdershaw, Leslie Hall, Phil Connibear, and Roy Mowbray. During the supper hour a letter of greeting was read by the Sec- retary, from James Reid, who is suffering from a fractured hip, in Oshawa Hospital. Mr. Reid is one of the active members of the club any his presence was greatly miss- ed. Following the supper, Shuffle- board and euchre was in order, Attending the Oshawa Young People's Presbytery Convention, held this year at the Tyrone United Church, from Brooklin, were: Miss Verna Sonley, Miss Merle Ormiston, Raymond Hod- son and Johnny Medland.

Mr. and Mrs. John Gibson, To- Orillia Mayor Hits at Chief In PA-Broadcast Meet While Police Charge Waits Orillia, Ont.,, April 24 --(CP)-- memories of old time knock-em- down, drag-em-out political battles arc being revived in this Central Ontario town of 12,000. Main participants in the three- year-old fight are the chief of police and the mayor, Present standing: Mayor Wilbur N. Cramp faces a charge of assault- ing a police constable. He'll appear in jcourt on the charge Friday, but meanwhile he wants a provincial government investigation of the ad- ministration of justice. He also wants to see Police Chief W. G. Carson fired. An indication of the among Orillians in the dispute was the attendance at a counicl meeting called by the mayor last night to discuss police matters. More than 1,000 persons--one- twel.uh of the population--turned out. chamber heard proceedings on a loud speaker in the market square outside. Noticeably missing from the thronz, however, were the other eight members of the council. They said their absence was prompted by a wish to steer clear of discussing in public a matter that was for the courts to decide. Their absence didn't discourage Mayor Cramp, who delivered an hour-long address describing police administration as a reign of terror and demanding that Chief Carson be "shorn of his uniform and igno- miniously shown jhe door." The assault charge arises from a scuffle in the police station April 17. The mayor is accused of grab- bing a constable and swearing while protesting the arrest of an Orillia storekeeper for having liquor in an improper place. Mayor Cramp was reported to have accused the police at the time of pushing "this liquor issue," a ref- erence to the previous election in which he was voted into office on a campaign which brought Orillia a| liquor store and brewers' warehouse. At last night's meeting Mayor Cramp criticized the other council- lors for being "afraid to show up in their true colors before a meeting of citizens." He remarked that the "timely summons" prevented him from enlightening the public on the facts, and accused the chief of police cof spending taxpayers' money and time in a "ruthless attempt to de- stroy me as mayor." ronto and Mr. and Mrs. Robert Gibson, Whitby, were weekend visi tors at home. Mrs. J. H. McKinney is attend- ing the Conference Branch Annual meeting. of Toronto Branch, now being held in North Bay.

In 'the first years of the United Nations operation, he stated, this was only undertaken on a small scale and it was not until President Truman's speech in February 1949 which pledged the whole-hearted support of the United States to the Technical Assistance program that any real strides were taken. All Can Lend Aid Since that time the multi-lateral action of the United Nations in conjunction with the bilateral action of nations and groups of nations such-es-the British Commonwealth complete coverage of the under- !' privileged areas has been attempted.

It was emphasized that while the home is the foundation of society, it is the quarrelsome home and the home in which the child is ignored: which produce food for the courts and the reform school, At the same * time the part played by the church in the promotion of godliness is also very important. 2 Three Objectives, Mr. Moss declared that the Unity Club, which is sponsored by the Rotary Club of Westmount, Quebec, has * three objectives, namely -- to attract boys and girls; to plan and carry out constructive activities and to bring about contact between the members and the staff workeres. In August last the club catered to children of all creeds and nationali- ties -- between the ages of 8 and 14 years. It is planned to add a year to the top age limit until a top of 18 years has been reached. Stressing the need for activities | for the girls of the community, the speaker said the Unity Club has a membership of 200 girls. Their membership has brought about an improvement in the program as well as the development of better rela- tions between boys: and girls: The program is a means toward an end. Each member is looked upon as an individual and learns the forces which make for demo- cratic living.
