hs N \ : © THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE | THURSDAY, APRIL 26, 1951 In Jhe ~. OF INTEREST TO WOMEN -~ = A ---- YiW.C.A. Senior Clubs Join World-Wide Members Observance "My Flace in the World as a Christian Woman Citizen" was the theme for this year of the world- wide membership observance ban- quet held each spring by the busi- ness girls of the Y.W.C.A's across the world and which was marked by a banquet held at Adelaide House last evening. Women held a very strategic place in the world today, declared the Rev. H. A. Mellow who was the guest speaker. Women had more influence than men. Men had not the strong place in the fashioning of world affair§ as the women and it had been truly said that "the hand that rocked the cradie ruled the world", he observed. The history of the world had never been more critical than to- day, he continued, and there were sharp signs of forks in the road. 'Such world-wide movements as the Y.W.C.A. were doing a great part in determining the right road to follow. He urged his listeners to make sure that the letter "C" was never dropped from the Y.W.C.A. Only tragedy could result if the "Cc" was ever taken away and would mean the whole power of the organization gone. The speaker warned against the | tendency in Christian work to be so engrossed in local doings that the larger vision was lost sight of and stressed the necessity of grow- ing 'up and maturing intellectually and emotionally so as to be able | to adjust to the unalterable facts of life. A vote of thanks was expressed to Mr. Mellow by Mrs, J. G. Rooney. Miss Irene Preston, president of the Senior Girls' Council, presided at the banquet and welcomed the guests including board and com- mittee members and staff of the local association and members of the various senior clubs and acti- vity group. She regretted that Mrs. Frank McCallum, president of the board of the Y.W.C.A. was out of the city and therefore unable to be present, Seated at the head table were Mrs. Michael Jacula, Mrs. C. S. Lee, the Rev. H. A. Mellow, Miss Irene Preston, Mrs. O. D. Friend, Mrs. Sidney Hopkins, Mrs. lI, B. Arm- strong, Mrs. Evelyn Bateman, Mrs. H. A. Mellow, Miss Elizabeth Pitl. Daffodils and green streamers formed the table decorations which were interspersed with cards bear- ing the names of the countries re- presented in the world-wide move- ment. Mrs. O. D. Friend, first vice presi- dent of the board of the Y.W.C.A. brought greetings from the board and presented the messages that had been received from other Y.W. C:As across Canada and the Unit- ed States. Greetings were also read | from Mrs. R. 8S. McLaughlin in Ber- muda and from Miss Grace Richer who is. vacationing at Pacific Grove, California. The Misses Mary Andrews, Ma- deline Guscott, Beatrice Wakil, Betty Joyce and Irene Preston, five of the Oshawa delegates to the re- cent Regional Conference held in Guelph, gave some highlights of the conference with particular re- ference to plans being made for the meeting of the World Council of the Y.W.CAA. in Beirut, Lebanon in Oc- tober of this year. Two of the dele- gates, Miss Mary Andrews and Miss Wakil, were in Lebanese na- tive costume, Miss Wakil who was born and educated in Beirut prior to coming to live in Oshawa three years ago, was able to give some interesting first hand information of what the delegates to the World Conference would find in Lebanon with regard to the accommodation and the habits of the people.

SHEILA PATRICIA KEYS . "World Events Today" Summary for 1.O.D.E. Reviews the News % Mrs. M. McIntyre Hood read a interesting paper on World Affairs of Today at the monthly meeting of the Prince Philip Chapter of the Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire held at Adelaide House. thing about the dismissal of Gen- eral Douglas MacArthur as com- mander of the United Nations forces in the Far East," she said. "It has thrown the whole question of United Nations policy into 'the arena of United States party polit ics, and the protagonists have their eyes on the 1951 presidential elec- tion." In a democracy matters of politi- cal strategy must remain with the civil authorities, and MacArthur rebelled against the civil authority. Therefore, he had to go. On the other hand no general ever led his armies into war with his hands so statement of strategic policy. Growing nationalism among the suppressed peoples of the Near and Far East is making itself felt in Canada, Mrs. Hood said. Canada's defence program means more taxes, higher costs and lower standards. Everywhere in Asia .the subject races have ecquired a strong de- sire for freedom, and higher stan- dards of living. pn China, North Korea, Malaya and Indo-China the Communists have seized the oppor- tunity and gained control of the minds of the people with empty promises. While the United States is sus- taining losses in Korea, Britain and A\France have been fighting for years in Malaya and Indo-China, with thousands killed and wounded. The nationalist uprising in.

Council Hears Convention Reports The regular meeting of the Osh- awa and District Home and School Council was held in Centre Street auditorium on Tuesday evening, at which time the delegates who at- tended the convention held in To- ronto recently presented their re- ports. Mrs. E. A. Collins, vice-president, reported on the religious education session, pointing out that religion was mainly living and doing the right thing in life, and if parents were tolerant of other denomina- tions, the children's viewpoint would be the same. A little religious devo- tion at each meeting planned by a committee comprised of all de- nominations would do much to encourage this viewpoint and would add to sincerity of meetings, Rew ferring 'also to the showing of films, Mrs. Collins pointed out that these were not necessarily all en- tertainment, but should be built up, shown and used as discussion material: Mrs. W. P. Whittington covered the Parent Education Session, the luncheon speaker, Mrs, M. D. Mc- Lennan, the Courtice Memorial Library and a Leadership Training discussion headed by Mrs. Uriah Jones of Oshawa. These sessions, Mr. Whittington stated, definitely proved the value of discussion groups following a lecturer or films. A Child's Bill of Rights was also studied, naming twelve dif ferent requirements necessary for the modern child to develop proper- ly in this age of development, Home and School members were urged to develop leadership, to try to educate public opinion, and to help to keep the standards of live ing high.

H. Valleau reviewed briefly Health Nutrition, and a panel discussion on World Under- standing, stressing that it was a parent's job to remove prejudice of color or religion, and to learn to see and understand both sides of all their children's questions and problems, and give them a balance and knowledge of principles. Ques= tion of pupils studying subjects not needed for family living was also discussed. Mrs, Sidney Sharples presided at the meeting, and also gave a repors on the pre-convention and poste convention session of the Board of Directors.
