® Scout Leaders Are Honored At Appreciation Dinner! Bible, Citizenship Inseparable Things Lodge Members Told 4 The volume of the sacred law, as | the Bible is referred to in Masonic | parlance, and good citizenship are | inseparable, said Donald Fleming, | KC. MP, ruling master of Ionic Lodge, AF. and AM, Toronto, in | speaking at the opening of the fall series of meetings of Lebanon Lodge, AF. and AM, in the Ma- | sonic Temple Tuesday night. Ma- | sonry owes the bulk of its content | to the Bible and it necessarily fol- Jows that to be a good Mason or a good citizen one must not only be- lieve but practice the teachings of the Bible. Mr. Fleming said that the word citizen only appears four | times in the Bible and that, only in the New Testament. The word citizen comes from a Latin origin and our conception of it comes | from ancient Greece. | The speaker stressed the im- | portance of our rights and respon- | . Britain Looking At By M.

MAYOR VOICES THANKS Mayor Michael Starr recorded young job in helping to mould the future leaders of the city of Oshawa. He hated to think of the problems that would arise in youth training were it not for the scout movement, The same sentiment was enlarged upon by the guest. speaker, Region- al Commissioner R. H. Johnston, who, in a thoughtful and wryly huimorous address, urged the thesis value of citizenship rights. "We | Federation Meeting. have many privileges which have been fought for and won at a great | sacrifice. We should learn to ap- | preciate these privileges, and to do this we must realize our responsi- | bilities as citizens," he commented. | "There is, however," he said, «one great reservation which has | been constantly with us since time | immemorial, which is that we ought that people were more important than things. The- conspiracy of world communism to capture the mind of youth, he said, made it more important than ever to press forward in the scouting movement, alive to democracy and supremely aware of the moral duty which was the essence of scouting--belief in God. : : i The Rev.

Fleming /feferred to a visit he had made to Oslo, Norway, | and told of how the Nazi fliers had | tried to kill the king of Norway by bombing the palace and that fit was providential that his life was spared. "In the city," he said, "Nazi occupation, in order to rid the country of holy writ, every cell in the jail which' always had a volume of the Bible, was visited by the Nazi soldiers. Their contempt of the sacred book was shown when they swept them into rubbish heaps.

TRUE VALUES OF FREEDOMS - "I think," he said, "that one of the most important things which we sliould do is to learn the true value of our freedoms and to do this, we must understand and ap- preciate the sacrifices that have been made by those that have gone before having. done this we will realize our responsibilities, Free- dom is ours to build for the greater good." - In this modern age we have the | privilege to enjoy democracy. And in order to practice good citizen= ship, one of our responsibilities is to use our franchise. The speaker referred to the apathy shown by many citizens who place little or no value on this great privilege. Referring to those who devote their lives to public service, he said they sometimes find the public to be hard judges. The higher you go the more severe the judgment. "However, I think," he said, "that people generally should be prepar- ed to judge themselves as well as those in public life." He closed his address by pointing out the re- sponsibility which belongs partially to those who govern by quoting the following: "That without Vision the People Parish," and "Righteous- ness Establisheth a Nation."

It seems fantastc to look back over that and realize that all {of this has happened in the short space of a little more than 24 hours, which also included the train trip from Montreal to Oshawa. | AMAZING AIRCRAFT The BOAC stratocruiser is truly an amazing aircraft, On our trip, it | carried 59 passengers and a crew of ten. Its capacity is 60 passengers, so | we were only one short of the full complement, For those wishing to | pay an extra $25, there are sleeping car. The majority, however, chose to remain in the soft, reclining seats which invited sleep when it was de- sired. The plane has two cabins, one seating 28 persons and the other 24, and there is a specfal cabin forward | accommodating eight people. It has a complete kitchen and pantry in which meals are prepared and serv- ed on board. It has two decks, and one stepped down a short flight of stairs into a comfortable lounge and snack bar. And one gratifying fea- ture is that it is possible to walk around the plane, visit with friends, and in general act just as one would do aboard a steamer. Comfort is the byword on board. The noise of the engines is heard only és a subdued murmur, and af- ter the first hour is not noticed at all. The stewards and stewardess have only one thought in mind, that of the well-being and comfort | of their passengers. DELAYED DEPARTURE Our departure from Prestwick | was delayed some five hours because | of the necessity of overhauling at { least one of the engines before em- | barking on the trans-Atlantic hop, | so that instead of leaving at 10.45 | on Tuesday evening, we took off at | of the feuds which used to rage |Jones, percussion; | 3.45 on Wednesday mornnig. In the | meantime, the BOAC treated us all to a splendid dinner at the airport hotel, and provided a comfortable | lounge where we could wait for the | hours of delay. For some unexplained reason, it was decided to follow the northern | route to Montreal. So at seven o'clock, we heard the message over the inter - communication system, ing. We are about to land at Kefla- vik airport n Iceland." There below {us lay the island, looking a barren waste on the northern sea. And in a few minutes we were sitting in the airport restaurant, being regal- ed with toast and coffee, also at the | BOAC expense. ' OPERATED BY U.S. FORCES We were not allowed to leave the airport, but we noted that it is operated by the United States army and' navy .as- an air base. US. transport planes were on the air- strip aprons, and men in the uni- forms of these two services were en- gaged at their duties. The Keflavik airport lies some 35 - | miles from Reykjavik, the capital city of Iceland. It lies off in the southwest corner of the island, and is*built on a bed of lava left there in bygone days by the island's vol- | cane, Mount Hekla.

The Times-Gazette and the Goodfellow Printing Com- | pany, Limited, and made a tour of inspection of the printing plants of these two companies. This func- tion marked the opening event of the 1951-1952 seascn for the Ad- | vertisers' Guild, and the members | | who attended expressed warm ap- | preciation of the hospitality extend- | led to them in Oshawa, and of the | interesting, things they saw in their tour of the printing plants. : J. P. Heffernan, of Toronto, Pres- the dinner gathering, at which the | | chief speaker was A. R. Alloway, | President of both the host compan- | | ies. Ellman Glebe, a past-president i and one of the founders of the or- ganization, told an interesting story of its organization in 1934, and of | its objectives. It had been of great | | value since then in enabling mem- bers to exchange ideas and to hear addresses on problems of the many- | | sided field of advertising. GUEST WELCOMED | Reg. Wright, of the Alger Press, | | Toronto, introduced T. L. Wilson, managing director of The Times- | | Gazette Publishers, Limited, who, | on behalf of the two host compan- | | ies, warmly welcomed the guests | |of the evening, and introduced' A. | R. Alloway as speaker. A. R. Alloway, speaking from a background of fifty years in the printing and publishing business, | held -the- interest of the gathering as he related many' interesting reminiscences of his early years in the business in Toronto some forty [to fifty years ago, telling of "the newspapers of that time -and | personalities behind them. He re- | called the days when Toronto had | six newspapers, and the bitterness | between some of them. The newspaper business, said Mr. | Alloway, was one of the most in- teresting in which a man could be | | engaged,.and provided a means of | acquiring a broad education. While one of the functions of a newspaper | business was to make money, be- | cause that was essential if the busi- | ness were to be successful, service | to the community and the public stood out in the forefront of news- | paper functions. | "Today, the standards ¢f news- papers in: Canada are very high," | said Mr. Alloway. "I have known | most of their publishers for many | years, and I know that they have | high: ethical standards - personally, land carry these into their busi- | nesses." [MUST MIRROR COMMUNITY In carrying out its' function of public service, the newspaper must mirror the life of the community it serves, said the speaker, and it must reflect all the varied phases of its life, 'whether the community be large or small. Generally, papers in small centres are closer to the life of 'the people' than in, the metro- politan areas, and they seek to pub- lish a newspaper of interest to ev- eryone in their field. * - "The newspapers in the small communties are more valuable from the standpoint of reader interest than the metropolitan dailies, which are read only in a sketchy manner," | he said. "In the small communities, | there is keener interest in the sto- | ries emanating" from civic boards, women's organisations, schools, churches, and the many. other groups and societies which make up the life of the town or city." Pointing to rising costs of news- | paper production, Mr. Alloway said | that - subscribers received their newspapers at a great deal less than | they cost. The newsprint and ink | alone used in many newspapers | were worth more than the price | paid for them. "I think the time is | coming when the public for whom | newspapers are printed will have to | pay a larger proportion of what it | | costs t: tiSers pay 0 produce them, At present, i I a large pari of the | costs of production, and should | there be a slump in advertising, {even only to a small degree, néws- adver adver e the | 'Earlscourt Band Coming On Saturday | The Oshawa Salvation season of "Saturday Nights at the | Citadel," with the visit of the fa- mous Earlscourt Citadel Band, this coming Saturday, commencing at! 8 pm. | The history of the Earlscourt Citadel Band reaches back many years, and throughout the years it has presented a continuous high standard, Always in the fraternity | of outstanding bands in Canada, it has visited every city of importance in Eastern Canada, and has nade many trips across the border to | such cities as Buffalo, Syracuse, | Rochester, Pittsburg and Baltimore. | Perhaps their most memorable trip was a ten day tour of the State of | West Virginia two vears ago. The band has been fortunate in its leaders, among whom has been Norman Audiore, FCCO, LRAM,! now bandmaster of the renowned Montreal Citadel Band: and the late Tom Robertson, LRAM, one- | time conductor of the Band of the! Kings Royal Rifles. The present | bandmaster, Walter Mason, is a musician of note. An Englishman by birth, he is a graduate of Kneller | Hall, musical college of the British | Army, and is an accomplished tuba player and pianist. During the past war he was the bandmaster of one | of Britain's crack military bands. Among the personnel of the! fifty-piece band are some fine so- loists, and some of these will be | | heard. These include Bandsman Deputy Band- | master Curtis, Trombgne; and the | | brothers, Bandsmen G. and B.| | Sharpe, cornetists. | Their trades and professions are | |as varied as their faces, and in- | clude store managers, aircraft wer- | kers, bookkeepers, etc. They have | broadcasted frequently and are probably the only Salvation Army Band in Canada to be televised, which happened on one of their American trips. With them will be associated as Master of Ceremonies and speaker, Major Arnold Brown, one of the Army's, younger orators. Fluent and versatile, he will bring a message of tremendous import to the 'peo- ple of this community. It is expected that a capacity au- dience will fill the Citadel to hear and see both Major Brown and the Earlscourt Band this Saturday night. SECOND ANNIVERSARY Bonn, Germany (AP) -- The! west German Federal Republic celebrated its second anniversary Wednesday, and its chancellor, Konrad Adenauer, promised Ger- mans behind the Iron Curtain that the country one day would be united again. : papers would be placed in a diffi- cult position." SUPPORT WORTHY CAUSES Mr. Alloway stressed the service rendered to the community by newspapers in their ungrudging support of all worthy causes, and of the enterprises sponsored by service organizations. In closing, he ex- tended a warm welcome to the vis- iting advertising men present at the dinner. After the dinner, the party ad- journed to the plants of The Times-Gazette. and the Goodfellow Printing Company, Limited; and made a thorough tour of inspection. Here Stewart Tricker, on behalf of the Guild members, expressed in a warm and sincere manner the appreciation of the members of the hospitality extended to them by the two companies, and for the privil- ege of viewing the splendid plants they had just seen. { cation.
