Times-Gazette Carriers' Spent: Wonderful Day At CNE Looki g Brital By M. MEINTYRE HOOD Article No. 24 dinburgh, Scotland, August 28 .. Alrmail--An unforgettable day of our sojourn in Britain is drawing to a close. Today we have been on a bus tour of what is known as the Scott country, or the Border coun- try, that section of Scotland lying between Edinburgh and the English border, a tour that took us through countfy of incomparable beauty, steeped in rich history. And when that was over, we topped off the day by attending one of the great events of the International Festival of Drama and Music, a presentation of Shakespeare's play "A Winter's Tale", with Joh Gellgud, Diana Wynyard and Flora Robson playing the leading roles. It has been a rare feast of pastoral beauty, romantic history and of dramatic presenta- tion which reached the heights. The world "international" appears in the title of the Edinburgh Festi- val. It is fully justified, not only by the international flavor of the many and those who take part in them, but by the great collection of people from all parts of the world assembled in Scotland and in Edinburgh for them. They spend the days on bus tours to places of interest, and in the evening tax the capacity of the many theatres and halls where dramatic and musical events are being held. And the military tattoo on the Edinburgh Castle esplanade, plays to a ca- pacity audience every night. INTERNATIONAL FLAVOR We noticed the international fla- vor of the crowd of visitors to the Scottish 'capital on our bus tours of the last two days. In the bus yes- terday there were ourselves as Can- adians, a young women from South Africa, two others from Rouen, France; a family of three from Bristol, England, and a party of ten Girl Guides from County Tyrone, Ireland, attending a guide camp in Edinburgh' and spending some time touring the country. Today, in addi- tion to ourselves, there were two other Canadians, from Toronto; an Australian husband and wife; two people from Egypt who, never- theless, carried on all their con- versation in Hungarian; two parties from France, one young woman from Cumberland in the English Lake district and two others from the city of Coventry, and four others who spoke in some language we did not grasp, but decidedly European. This cosmopolitan crowd in two bus loads gives some idea of the inter- national flavor which has come over the city because of the Festival of Drama and Music, one of the great- est of all the events of the Festival of Britain. HISTORIC COUNTRY The bus tour on which we em- barked this morning was scheduled as an all-day tour to Abbotsford, Dryburgh Abbey and Abbotsford, the home of Sir Walter Scott, the great Scottish novelist and poet. But it included a great deal more than that, It carried us through a coun- try which, centuries ago, was mark- ed by flerce battles, by intrigues and conspiracies in which the throne of Scotland was involved. It carried us through rich pastoral land, the heart of the Scottish tweed industry, in which every hill- side carried its flock of sheep. It took us through hill country of surpassing beauty, with purple heather in full bloom adorning the hillsides. We started off at 1030 am, through the Pentland Hills, and halting at many places of interest on the way. Our driver was an Aberdonian, with the rich, broad accent of his native city, and he regaled us with a bit of history in- termingled with rare humor. For instance, as we passed over. the Lammermoor Hills, 1,200 feet above sea level, he stopped to point out where the old stage coach used to run, and where highwaymen used to lurk, waiting to rob the passen- gers of the stage coaches. Then he added, "But today they rob us by legitimate means, through the urchase tax and the income tax, ARMING SCENE We were interested in the farm- ing aspect of the countryside, Fer- tile valleys ran between the heather-clad hills, with fields of oats, barley and wheat predominat- Ing. Some of the fields were ripe for cutting, but there were many fields of oats on the upper levels still green, and unlikely to ripen now. They will simply be cut green for live stock fodder. There were occasional fields of sugar beets, now one of the great crops of Brit- ain, which, through them, is try- Ing to cut down sugar imports from dollar areas. But what caught our eye was the luscious greenness of the pasture fields, which would make Canadian larmers turn just as green as the prass with envy. Sheep and cattle jrazed in these pasture fields, which covered wide stretches of level plain and sloping hillside.

The welcome to the little fellow, who carries the green flag of safety in his upcurl- ed trunk, is being arranged under the joint auspices of the Board of Education, the Separate School Board, the Police Department and the Oshawa Kinsmen Club. Parade members, including some 5,000 Oshawa school children, head- ed by their teachers and principals, led by the Kinsmen Boys' Band, will assemble at 9.45 a.m. on Satur- day at Memorial Park, ready to move off at 10 sharp. The parade will finish at the Kinsmen Stadium, where the children will sit in sec- tions according to school, for a program' of music, contests and dramatic skits along with the pres- entation of the green-and-gold El- mer the Safety Elephant pennants to each school. CIVIC DIGNITORIES TO ATTEND Mayor Michael Starr will be there, along with a representative of the Police Department, Public School Inspector T. R. McEwen, and A. C. Love, secretary-treasurer of the Separate School Board. Stephen G. Saywell, chairman of the Board of Education has been invited to share in the program, according to G. B. Attersley, who heads the. ef- fort for local Kinsmen. Bill Swinton, another Kinsmen live-wire, will M.C. the stadium rally, which will feature a "play- ette," put on by C. F. Pearsall, di- rector of the Toronto Traffic Saft- ty Council and his associates. High peak of the stadium jollity will be a ple-eating contest for boys and Safety Elephant Comes Saturday For Children's Parade a rope-skipping contest for girls, with sixteen contestants being chos- en, one from each of the city schools. Each contestant will per- form before the section where his or her school is sitting, under a banner emblazoned with the name of the school. Prizes will be given. In addition, during the week, with the co-operation of school principals and teachers, pamphlets outlining the Five Safety Rules advocated by Elmer will be given to all the childréh, and along with each pamphlet will go a ticket on a lucky draw for a boy's and girl's bicycle to be won at the stadium next Saturday. TO PRESENT PENNANTS Each school will have in its possession after the rally, a big tri- angular green pennant, with El- mer's twinkle-eyed likeness por- trayed thereon in orange and white, which the sehool will have the right to hoist after the children have gone through thirty accident-free days at- school. The rules they will need to remember to set El- mer flying in' the breeze are very simple: 1. Look both ways before you cross the street. 2. Keep out from between parked cars. 3. Ride your bicycle safely--obey all traf- fic signals. 4. Play games in a safe place -- away from traffic, 5. Walk, don't run, when you leave the curb. Local merchants are co-operating by displaying Elmer's placards and other material in their store win- dows during the coming week, and it's expected that a goodly part of the people of Oshawa will be out next Saturday to welcome Elmer the Safety Elephant to the Motor City, where he has a big job cut out for him, A fair crowd of band enthusiasts braved the chilly weather last night to hear an excellent concert played in the McLaughlin Bandshell by the Civic and Regimental Band. In fine fettle for their forthcoming appear- ance in the massed band concert at Toronto the band, in one of its outdoor wind-ups: of the season, surpassed itself in a program of old favorites, Solo vocalist of the evening was A. Yonson, whose voice was heard to the best advantage in four out- standing numbers. Mr. Yonson who received rounds of applause as token of the crowd's appreciation, was accompanied on the, piano by M. Gouldburn. Master of Ceremonies for the eve- ning was L. W. McConkey, secretary of Oshawa Chamber of Commerce. After welcoming the warmly-clad audience, Mr. McConkey introduced the first item, which was Kenneth Alford's "Standard of St. George". Second ivan waltz forthe evening was the nostalgic and haunting "Roses of Picardy", Haydn Wood's first World War classic, In more rchbust form the band Excellent Concert Given By Band Sunday Evening swung into "Shipmates of Mine", by Sanderson, for Mr. Yonson's first solo. The song of the sea was fol- lowed by the familiar Irish air, Mr. Yonson. The pen of Leon Jessel provided the band with its inter- mezzo" for the evening, "The Wed- ding of the Rose". Bandsman J. Lee played a solo on the trombone--a rarely heard solo instrument--and chose for his ren- dition J. Dix's "The Trumpeter", Musical comedy selection for the program was the well-known "Maid of the Mountains" by Fraser Sihm- son. Returing to the stage for his second appearance Mr, Yonson sang the sacred "Beautitude Malotte" and the "23rd Psalm Malotte", Boieldieu's "The Caliph of Bagdad" preceded an air varie by Sidney Trenchard on possibly the most famous of all old hymns "Rock of Ages", Closing hymn of the evening FWES OIG Bart; witich™ was Toi lowed by the regimental march, "John Peel" and "The King". Sgt. George Hood conducted the band, He will also be conducting "Mother Machree" also rendered by: British Israel Service Season Opened Sunday The autumn season of the Osh- awa Branch of the British-Israel World Federation (Canada) began on Sunday with avery inspiring Neghure by the Rev. E. A. Cauldrey. TS gubject was "Believing a Lie." The meeting was held in the For- ester's Hall. The message given was as follows: "Among the many tenets preach- ed today none is more popular than the doctrine of the Universal Fatherhood of God and the Broth- erhood of Man, It is thought that because Adam was the Son of God he was created by God. All men are sons of God by right of creation. They admit that man has strayed from God but teach that the heart of the Eternal is kind and the door is always open for their return. While this doctrine seems to get more popular as time goes on, we see very little of the Brotherhood of Man in the affairs in the world around us. "This doctrine is true or false. Dogs God's Word sanction such a belief? The Bible to me is the touchstone of truth, the one and final authority of all things per- taining to our life. It does not contain the Word of God, but is the Word of God written. The Bible has been relegated by many to the ordinary book. This is anti-Chris- tian. It is that strong delusion, that men should believe a lie. Satan is a liar and the father of lies. Let us turn to the Old Testa- ment. It is there that we find that the Fatherhood of God refers to the people of Israel. There is no place in the Bible where it tells us that God was the Father of all races, except as each person accepts Christ as Saviour, "Have you forgotten the Lord's Prayer? It is well for us to re- member that the Lord's Prayer was who accept the Lord. Our Lord had in mind His spiritual brethren, when He taught us to pray, "Our Father, Who are in Heaven. An unsaved person cannot mean it, This is a prayer for God's family. When people 'accept Christ they become a son of God; it does not matter what color, or race they are. There is a brotherhood of Chris- tians that is world-wide and there is also a brotherhood of Satan that is world-wide." Russ War Talk At Treaty End Thought False Vancouver (CP)--Russian talk of | war arising out of the Japanese peace treaty is false, External Af- fairs Minister Pearson said here Sunday in an interview. : "Quite the reverse is true," he said. "The Japanese treaty is the best we could get. It will foster peace." Mr. Pearson held a press con- ference immediately after his ar- rival by RCAF plane from San Francisco, where the treaty was signed Saturday. With him were Fisheries Minister Mayhew and eight others in the Canadian dele- gation. part of the program at next Sun- day night's massed band concert at given to the desciples and to those | the CNE Grandstand in Toronto, & This is an informal birthday poFrait of Col.

New Method Used at Port Perry Fair Something new in the way of a Best Udder Class was tried at the Ontario County Black and White Day held at Port Perry when all entries in the Best Udder Class were blanketed before being shown. Attention was thus directed strictly to the udder. Judge Everett Brown gave the award to Helen Pietje Posch Illehee shown by O. Cham- bers, Wilfrid.

The happy party of 43 carriers and supervisors left Oshawa on a chartered Gray Coach Lines a full day at Canada's greatest fair. bus early in the morning for Several others had qualified to go but due to illness or other arrangements could not make the trip. Some had never been to the Exhi- bition before and for them it was a day of new and thrilling experiences, and even for the regular attenders, the day was packed with interesting and exciting events. _--¢ On arrival at the grounds, the TRADE FAIR SUPERVISORS APPOINTED Ottawa -- The Rt. Hon. C. D. Howe, Minister of Trade 4nd Com- merce, today announced the ap- pointment of two field supervisors AL A. A. LOVE and seven field representatives for the Canadian International Trade Fair. Field representative for the Trade Fair in Eastern and Northern On- tario is A. A. Love, of Lindsay (64 Bond Sareet), whose territory ex- tends North and Bast from Whitby, Oshawa, Orillia and Midland. Born and educated in the City of Quebec, Mr. Love worked for the Canadian Bank of Commerce all his previous business life, retiring in 1950 from his position as inspector in charge of methods at the Toron- to head office. His experience with the bank has been considerable, extending to London, Eng, and various foreign branches. After serving in Quebec, Montreal, Lon- don, Eng.,. St. John's, Nfld, Otta- wa and Toronto, Mr, Love was transferred in 1929 to the Mari- times Division as assistant inspec- tor at Halifax, and later as man- ager at Yarmouth, Truro and Syd- ney before coming to Toronto. These men will work directly with the Trade Fair Administration in Toronto, and will collaborate close- ly with the Trade Fair Provincial Committee, headed by F. J. Lyle, Director of the Trade and Industry Branch of the Ontario Department of Planning and Development. In announcing the appointment, the Minister stated that they were two of a number of Field Repre- sentatives being appointed across Canada for the purpose of meeting with Canadian manufacturers and producers to provide them with first hand information on the pur- pose of the Canadian International Trade Fair and its value to them through exhibiting. The Trade Fair, patterned after the time-hon- ared and successful Trade Fair in Western Europe, was the first to be inaugurated on this continent. It was held in 1948 as an experi- ment, ard a number of Canadian |. manufacturers have exhibited in all four fairs to date. Now, after the success story of the amount of busi- ness development at the Fair, both by Canadian manufacturers and exhibitors from abroad, there is a substantial indication of the value of the Fair to more of Can- ada's manufacturers and producers. For the first time since its in- ception sales organization have been established to carry the story of the Trade Fair to manufacturers and producers in every Canadian Province. It is hoped that pare ticipation by Canadian firms will, as the result, show a marked in- crease at the 5th Trade Fair now being organized for June 2 to 13, buildings. For the boys particulare quickly started for a tour of the party divided into five groups and ly, the Automotive Building was at the top of the list with the Gener- al Motors exhibit claiming their first attention. In the Pure Foods Building, free samples, of course, were quickly devoured. In fact, the hot soup went down so quickly that Don Jeyes swore for the rest of the day that his stomach was burned. GREAT APPETITES At noon the groups met to have dinner together at one of the cen- tral restaurants. Appetites did not seem one bit diminished even though vast quantities of candy floss, pop corn, etc. had- been eaten all morning. The afternoon grandstand per- formance was a real treat with al- most too much going on for gven alert carriers to see. The bicycle races which were in progress be- fore the main show started receive ed plenty of cheers from our party as the local Victor Cycle Club claimed many of the top honors. CADETS MARCH PAST An interesting interlude in the afternoon was a march past of ap- proximately one thousand Royal Canadian Sea Cadets, Army Cadets, and Air Cadets. The salute was tak- en by Major General C. Churchill Mann. The highlight of the afternoon was the Hell Drivers with their amgazing stunts of skill and daring in their high speed cars. The final "Atomic Leap" where a car speeds up a ramp and hurtles through the air to land on another ramp brought down the house. Supper of sandwiches, cookies, honeydew, and apples served on the bank near the lake front was de- clared most tasty. There we were in perfect position to see the RCAF display of rocket and machine gun firing. Everyone voted to be a jet pilot as the Vampire whistled over CARRIERS AT CNE (Continued on Page 5) 1952. While the Fair is primarily designed to assist in promoting two- way trade between Canada and oth- er trading nations, the presence of thousands of business men from all parts of Canada also provides a unique opportunity for the develop-, ment of business right here at home. d DONT ENDURE MORNING SLUGGISHNESS" Do you wake up morning after mornin, feeling tired out?
