IWill Decide Canadian I Figure Skating Titles In Oshawa The ambition of a youthful skater of some ten years ago is being realized this coming Janu- ary, when E. R. 8. "Dick" Mec- i Laughlin, president of the Osh- awa Skating Club, will be play- lin host to figure skaters fron" all § across Canada at the Canadian | Figure Skating Championships which will be held at the Oshawa Arena, home of the local club, ¥ this January 17, 18 and 19, 1952. The local club directorate and f membership under the capable a guidance of its president are leaving no stone unturned to make this lone of the best championship | meets ever held. Assured of fine | ice conditions and plenty of ice | time for this meet by the arena i management it is felt that a rec- | ord number of entries in all events I will be on hand to try for the lanany coveted awards. The possibility of a trip to the 1.1952 winter Olympics will no | doubt be in the minds of many | of the senior skaters, and this will make for keen competition. in January A new Canadan ladies' cham- pion will be chosen, as the pres- ent champion, Miss Suzanne Mor- rowis, taking part in International competition in Europe at the pres- ent time and will not return in time to compete in Canada. She will be one Canadian representas tive at the Olympics and world's championships for Canada. The Championships last year were held in Vancouver. . Skaters are expected from Vancouver, Ed- monton, Calgary, Regina, Winni- peg, Northern Ontario centres, and as far east as Quebec City, along with many clubs from south- ern Ontario. Instigators in bringing the championships here were Dick McLaughlin and D, E, Steckley. There is much interest in the local club from & competitive standpoint with entries in all events other than junior singles, being assured. Much detail to be worked out and the directors are holding weekly meetings to assure that there is nothing overlooked.

Popularity Trends Seen In Toupees Montreal (CP) Westerners prefer blondes; Quebecers like them dark and everybody loves redheads. We're referring to man- nequin wigs, 'that is. This picture of Canadian prefer- ences in mannequin wigs, import- ant to shop and salon sellers, was given by Dorothy Clayton, who has been styling and manufactur- ing the wigs for some time. She hégan as a hairdresser 'in Moose Jaw, Sask., but decided to look for a more interesting profession and came to Montreal three years ago. 8he considers it a creative pro- fession. 'Mannequins must look as nearly as possible like the women 0 are going to see them, so that a woman will have no difficulty in imagining herself in the man- nequin's clothes." She runs the whole gamut of hair styles, too, from a lot of top and bottom curls to chignons, wind blown bobs and today's "in tween." . Mrs. Clayton says her biggest hrill comes when she tries a new ave on a mannequin and dis- overs it is especially becoming. Some of her new styles have been copied by beauty salons, be- | {accl.) 'Freedom In : : J Service' Is Talk Theme At a 'public meeting held Sun- | day afternoon under the auspices ! of the Oshawa Branch of the Brit- | ish-Israel World Federation, M. G. | Hofstetter of Headquarters, Toron- | to, delivered a very interesting ad- | dress titled "Freedom in Service". The purpose of the address, that of finding freedom in serving the cause of Christ and His Kingdom became most apparent to the speaker after his attendance at the recent Dominion convention of the BIWF (Canada) where the magnitude of the Federation's task was urgently impressed upon the delegates. The nature of this service is to be found in the needs of a world which has become spiritually bank- rupt. "It would seem that some form of mass hypnosis has overcome us these past two generations and in our mad desire to worship self through various creeds of material- ism, the faith and morality which typified the lives of so many of our forebears. has become something forgotten." In the midst of a world wide at- mosphere of violence and tension stands the man on the street an- xious, questioning, demanding an answer and desiring a message of hope. To him we must turn our attention. We must assure him that Almighty God is directing world af- fairs to an ultimate solution in which the organized forces of evil under Soviet leadership shall be destroyed and a new world order shall follow under the sovereign- ship of Jesus Christ. The Kingdom of God which shall then function is a reality that cannot be ignored. | Anglo Saxondom as the nucleus of | that Kingdom must become a re- pentant and spiritually renewed instrument in the hands of God. The speaker then cited some ex- amples of the methods used by Marxists and others who are clam- ouring for the attention and sup- port of the average man, today's methods of indoctrination which are not immoral can be adopted by us which may successfully combat the efforts of atheistic idiologies. The address was concluded with reference to St. Matthew 11:28-30.

Oshawa Girl Describes Her Trip To Morocco By LESLIE JONES ARTICLE NO. 5 Tangier is a city of many con- | trasts. Here East meets West; the Arab and European ways of life in- termesh and form a vivid new pattern, mysterious and fascinat- ing to the stranger. One of the more puzzling mys- teries of the city, so far as June and I were concerned, was how the Arab women, when identically wrapped in what, at a quick glance, you would take to be an old white bed sheet, and with a kerchief pull- ed across their faces so that only their piercing black eyes remained visible, could ever recognize one an- other on the street. But this seem- Mg impossibility they managed even on the crowded market place, much to our amazement. A second and related mystery, is why, dressed in those heavy garments in the hot African summer, and with a cloth covering their nostrils, they do nat smother to death. The ways of the Arab are strange indeed! MANY WESTERNIZED Not all the Arab women wear the veil. It. is a choice which now rests upon personal preference rather than religious scruples as in the past. Nor do all the Arabs wear their traditional robes. Many have completely Europeanized, and wear western suits similar to those of our local drug-store. sheiks. The various combinations of Arab and European dress that the ma- jority favour give some weird and wonderful effects. Imagine a brown European suit jacket, worn with a pair of voluminous purple balloon- like 'trousers, ending just below the knee, and showing bare leg and foot thrust into open heel, curled-toe slippers! Most of the men keep their heads covered in the Moslem custom, and one sees a motley variety of black skull-caps, broad straw hats, jaunty red fezes, white draped head coverings, and even the occasional coloured turban, There is great variety also in the languages used in Tangier. Official signs are printed in Spanish, French and Arabic, but one sees a certain amount of English as well. INTERNATIONAL ZONE Tangier has been an international (zone since 1923. It is governed by |a legislative assembly appointed by the various consuls resident in the | city. In, this assembly most of the various European nationalities are represented, but it is dominated by British, Spanish and French mem- bers. The Arabs are also represented in the assembly, but their num- bers are but one quarter of those of the Europeans. There are sep- arate law courts for the. use of Europeans in the city, while the Arabs come under the legal juris- diction of the Sultan of Morocco. The latter at the present time is closely allied--more or less willing- ly--with the French government. In the past the international trade rivalry at Tangier was the cause of many serious political in- cidents, but since its internation- alization the city has led a much more peacefyl existence. By Its charter it is declared neutral in all wars, During the last war Tangier was occupied by the Spanish under Franco, ostensibly to save if from the Germans, but in October, 1945, it was evacuated, and again assum- ed its international character. FREE MONEY MARKET As an international zone, Tan- gier"s mony market is completely free, a contrast to those in most of the European countries and in the European, protectorates in Africa, as a result it does a land-office busi- ness. "Here one can buy or sell all the well-known currencies of the world at the current rates of exchange, which are chalked up daily. The main street of the old part of the city is lined with small banks which carry on this money exchange. Most of these banks have just space enough for the two cashiers, and their box of money. The customer must remain out-side on the sidewalk! Indeed the Tan- gier banks are less likely to call to mind those noble and solid edi- fices one is accustomed to identify with institutions of commerce, than the temporary mid-way booths at the Oshawa Fair, SHREWD BARGAINING Tangier has no distinct currency of its'own. In the local shops goods are marked up, as a rule, in Spanish psetas or Moroccan francs. The | prices in these shops are apt to be higher than in Spain, but lower than in most European countries. June and I were particularly in- terested in the native jewellery, | heavy and ornate, but with a bar- | baric splendour, and also in the na- | tive leather work. By dint of bril- {lian% histrionic efforts involving cries of despair at the first price mentioned, frequent allusions to our starving children at home and an occasional agonized sob into our pocket handkerchiefs, we could usually manage to bring the price down to about one half of what was first guoted. We would then glee- fully bear off our treasures, clutch- ing them next our hearts, and con- gratulate each other on our cun- ningness and perspicacity, only to be told later by a Tangerine--as the locals laughingly call themselves-- that we had been grossly overcharg- ed. We consoled ourselves, however, by thinking of the prices we would have had to pay elsewhere for such items, and in that light all our purchases again became bargains. Nor are all the bargains just in Arab merchandise. All kinds of goods are brought into Tangier from Europe and America for re-export to other countries. In Tangier these goods cast less than they will at their final destination. Sometimes, as is the case with' U.K. woollens, they cost less than in the country of their origin, due to the low taxes in Tangier, as compared with other countries, In some ways Tangier can be re- garded as the last stronghold of completely free private enterprise. Here the entrepreneur's wide mar- gin of profit is not narrowed through fair, adequate wages paid out to workers, since in Tangier there are no trade unions to en- force labor's humanitarian claims, Here--almost unbelievable in our age of March 1st madness--there is no income tax. Tangier's income is derived instead from an excise tax on all goods coming into the coun- try. Once the importer has paid this tax, no one worries about what becomes of the goods, and rumour has it that a large portion of the Tangier traders' wealth is made from smuggling these goods into other countries. FEW RESTRICTIONS Tangier itself has few restrictions on imports and exports. Indeed, as one walks through the streets one often passes an old native, sitting quietly, staring vacantly, his mind OSHAWA GIRL (Continued on Page 5) Cheese Warehouse 'Inspected' by Agriculture Minister During an inspection tour of the Ontario Cheese Producers' association's new curing and storage warehouse at Belleville, Ont., Agriculture Minister Kennedy, second from right, is seen as he stopped to inspect prize- winning cheese samples from the British empire dairy show held in building.

Mellow of Northmin- ster United Church baptized five children who were presented for this sacrament yesterday. They were Ronald Ross, and Sus- anne, son and daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert R. Lofthouse; Robert Gerald, son of Mr. and Mrs, Cloyd Morey; Glen Allan, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Jeffrey; and Michael Al- lan, son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles § | R. Steward. Mrs. E. 8. Dafoe, retiring presi- dent of the Woman's Association, presented Mr. Mellow with a cheque for $1,500 from the W.A. for the building fund. Rev. Arthur S. Montgomery gave his farewell sermon and will be leaving for Washington, D.C. next Saturday. Mr. Montgomery said he could do nothing better than to preach "Jesus" as a farewell be- cause He was the silver thread of the old testament and the golden thread of the new. He continued, saying, "Many peo- ple have the conception of Jesus that is effeminate, because of ar- tists' misconception. Christ was not a weakling, He was a man who spoke with force and authority, and gave rebukes without apology, and He dared to face His foes unafraid." Mr. Montgomery's topic was "At Christ's Feet." He spoke of the un- fortunate parents who knelt at Je- sus' feet, Jairus whose daughter was dead, and of how Jesus gave ald. The distressed, typified by the woman with the issue of blood who touched Jesus' garment, knelt at Jesus' feet. Sinners gathered at Jesus' feet. The woman with the alabaster box washed His feet, and there began the doctrine of social gospel when Judas Iscariot lamented the waste because "it could have been sold to help the poor." Seekers of truth sat at Jesus feet as personified by Mary sister of Martha. In closing Mr. Montgomery wish- ed for each present that he would be found at Jesns feet for eternity as a seeker after truth. Mr. Mellow expressed the regret of the many people who have come to know Mr. Montgomery for his leaving and wished him godspeed. There will be two morning serv- ices at Northminster for the next two Sunday mornings, at 9 30 a.m, and 11 a.m. Next Sunday the sacra. ment of communion will be observ- ed at both morning services. Blind Man Reads Lesson St. Andrew's His sensitive finger-tips moving over raised metallic impressions, E. G. Brown--a blind man who fs the district field secretary for the Canadian National Institute for the Blind--read the Scripture les- son in St. Andrew's United Church, Oshawa," at yesterday evening's service. From one of his Braille volumes of the Bible, Mr. Brown read the lesson from the First Corinthians. Among the congregation was a large number of the 39 local blind people registered with the CNIB They were accompanied by their escorts at the first church service held in the city for blind people. Rev. Dr. George Telford, chair- man of Oshawa Advisory Board of the CNIB, preached the sermon. He took for his text "Getting the most out of life" and he 'instanced cases of blind folk who brilliant- ly overcome their handicap. Dur- ing the service Miss Helen Johns- ton sang the solo "The Lord is My Shepherd". The church guests were invited to a party after the service and they enjoyed a sing-song and Christmas carols. Tea was served by members of thé Women's As- sociation. Also present were mem- bers of the local board and repre- sentatives from the Lions Club-- which is one of the board's strong- est auxiliaries.

To Santa the experience. Jaycee's Lucky Draw was made by Mayor Michael Starr. The winner of the first prize, a television set, was Ticket No. 1858, Phyllis McCormack, R.R. 2, Oshawa. Second prize winner, to get a clock radio, wa: Ticket No. 7606, Ina Parks, 33 Avenue Street. Th: mantel radio, third prize, will go to Ticket No. 2405, J. Domonkos, 64 Albany Street. PRIZE PRESENTED TODAY The television was presented to Miss Phyllis McCormack, RR. 2, Oshawa, at a ceremony in Biddulphs Electrical Appliance Store at noon today. Making the presentation were the chairman of the Jaycee ticket committee, Bob Dewland; the president of the Junior Chamber of Commerce, Don Lander, and Jay- cee Secretary, Gord Walker. Miss McCormack appeared delighted with her good luck in winning the television set. In making the draw, Mayor Starr thanked the Jaycees on the chil- dren's behalf for bringing Santa down from the North Pole with his presents for everyone. He said that there had obviously been a great de 1 of work done by the Jaycees to make the Santa Centre possible, and he congratulated them on their ef- forts. The arrangement for getting the children and their parents up to see Santa was ingenious and efficient. ¢ ° Saint Nick was enthroned on a platform at the east end of the Armories, backed by a pair of bril- liantly decorated Christmas trees, and with half-a-dozen grinning Jay- cees for assistants. And the eager visitors serpentined across the floor through a sort of roped-off en- closure, which kept everybody warm and happy, but didn't submerge Kris Kringle with his admirers. From the time an eager child en- tered the big building, it meant a wait of only twenty minutes to half- an-hour before he or she was look- ing into the twinkling eyes of Old Saint Nick and shaking his white- Along about five o'clock, when the 5,000 Kiddies Pay Their Respects Claus The Santa Centre put on by Oshawa Jaycees at the Ar- mories on Saturday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. was a huge success. Don Lander, president of the Junior Chamber of Commerce, estimated that approximately 5,000 children, accompanied dy parents and guardians, had visited the centre. Each of these youngsters met Santa Claus, and was given a gift and a candy stick. And every one of them seemed enraptured by crowd was thinning down a bit, the ¥ gloved hand. And the look on the kicdie's face was something which must be seen '0 be believed. It rang- ed from startled unbelief to wild-ey- ed rapture. One little tyke was fit to be tied when she approached the presence, and wouldn't go near the snowy beared figure. She was led a' ay in a flood of tears by a slight- ly embarrassed mama, but not before g.tting a gift from one of Santa's assistants. Every moment there was some- thing to see and hear. Four or five enterprising Oshawa merchants had lined the walls with colorful booths, where dolls, skates, wagons, pandas, toy houses, books, games and- all kinds of toys were on display. One section was dominated by a big cotton - snowman with coal-black eyes. In a neighboring area, an elec- tric train, complete with station- house and signal posts, was running merrily around its track. LIST OF PERFORMERS Dancers and entertainers from the Irenie Harvey Dance Academy, numbering 73, put on a round dozen programs during the day, between 10 am. and 5 p.m. Dressed in gay and Christmassy costumes there were gypsies, clowns, fairy ballerin- as, soldiers and sailors and High- land lassies, some singing, some dancing, and many doing both. The performers included: Erna Litz, Mayrene Branton, Glenda Harrison, Joan Jubkavich, Joyce-lynn Love- less, Barbara Gordon, Gloria Ane derson, Betty Hoskin, Evelyn Lodge, Pat O'Reilly, Janice Anderson, Lyn Shaw, Nancy Pushar, June Follest, Violet Smith, Angela Rosky, Roberta Hale, Eleanor Sanders, Donna Luke, Irene Johnston, Carol Anne Mac- Inally, Lynda West, Blll Ellegett, Norman and Eleanor Sanders, Joan Hannon, Johnston Sisters, Marlee Burnside, Lynda Crawford, Barbara Brown, Karen Downey, Sharon Du- SANTA CENTRE (Continued on Page 5) Graduation Mrs. C. Parkinson Port Perry -- On Friday even- ing, December 7, the Port Perry High School held its annual Com- mencement Exercises in the audi- torium of the local United Church. The students filed into the church auditorium singing their school song, "We're the sons and daughters of Port Perry High", in a most impressive processional. The audience stood and when the students had filled the seats reserv- ed for them at the front, singing of two verses of the hymn, "O Canada' followed. The prayer of invocation was given by Rev. John Riddell, pastor of the Port Perry St. John's Presbyterian Church. The next portion of the program was reserved for Principal J. L. Crane who addressed the capacity audience for a few moments, dur- ing which time he extended a warm invitation to the parents and friends of the students, who had come to join in the graduation ceremonies. He also commented on the fact that too many of the modern young people everywhere are prone to literally take the first bus, without questioning them- selves just where they will end up The first musical numbers on the evening's performance were given by the Grade 9 choir, under the Exercises At Port Perry High School Impressive direction of Mr. Russel Brooks joint music instructor of the Port Perry and Uxbridge High School. The numbers were 'Long, Long Ago" and a setting of 'The Second Psalm". The presentation of special awards then was effected by Dr. Roy Irwin of the high school board. The Laura L. Jones Scholarship (for the highest standing in Grade XIII English), value $10.00, was awarded to last year's outstanding student, Howard Garvey. Barbara Dobson received the Dugold McBride Scholarship, value $25.00, for the upper school student with the highest standing in Eng- lish and history, and having no failures in Grade XIII subjects.
