REVIEW EARLY YEARS The early years of Solina W. I. were reviewgd by Mrs. E. R. Tay- lor. She told how in 1900-1901, Mrs. Thos. Baker, Mrs. Wm. Law and Mrs. Edith Leask attended W.

Momh s of the A iation are to be congratulated on having an executive capable of inspiring what now seems to be a tradition- al program with just the elements interest. Chief among the ideas introduc- ed this year was the competition for decorated tricycles, wagons, bikes and doll-buggies. It is cer- tain that Sharon Curran, Graham Parfitt and Billy Sargent, who won prizes in their respective contests, will remember this opening day as one of the best ever. An amazing quantity of pop, ice cream, popcorn and po was given away to t whose ability to take part in the various races and contests was, as usual, not a bit impaired thereby. While this was going on the adults got together around the home cook- booths, and had a great time, sparked by the annual realization that the Neighborhood Association is really doing something worth- while, and worthy of the widest support. The chief prizes of the day, and their winners, were as follows: floor polisher, Mr. S, Salmers, 159 Simcoe South; mantel radio, Mrs. D. Woods, 183 Roxboro; electric clock, Mr. Morden, 19 Elm; toast- er, Mrs. E. Parfitt, 95 Eldon; bed- lamp, Mr. G. Varty, 64 Orchard. The thanks of the association are due to Colvin Electric, Hill-Cornish, Norman Gower and the many oth- ers who donated prizes, articles for sale, their time and energy to a highly successful venture.

ADAMS Father's Day with his parents on June 21. He is Trooper Lawrence E. (Larry) Adams, 21, son of Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Adams, 105 Olive Avenue. Tpr. Adams is among the more than 300 officers and men, all vet- erans of a year's service in Japan and Korea, who are scheduled to arrive by ship at a west coast port on Wednesday of this week. Included in the draft are mem- bers of "'B"' Squadron, Lord Strath- cona's Horse. The armoured unit has served through the past year in Korea as a front-line, infantry-sup- porting unit equipped with Sher- man tanks. Its achievements and- er command of Maj. John Roxbor- ough, MBE, of Saint John, N.B., have been outstanding. Home base for the unit is Calgary. Tpr. Adams, who is a tank driv- er with the Lord Strathcona Horse, was employed in central receiving at General Motors here prior to his the 11th Armoured (Ontario) Regi- ment. He trained at Wainwright, Alber- ta, and has written many interest- ing letters to his parents telling of his experiences. He was on a tele- | vision show from Korea last Christ- mas. His father is regimental serg- eant major of the 11th Armoured (Ontario) Regiment. Rates One of the far reaching develop- ments resulting from the Univer- sal Postal Congress, held in Brus- sels last year, was a reduction in international air mail transporta- tion charges whieh go into effect on July 1. The benefits of these reactions are being passed on to the mail- ing public, and after July 1, the unit of weight for an air mail letter will be one-half ounce instead of one-quarter ounce as heretofore. The rate to the United Kingdom and Europe will be 15¢ a half ounce, to Central and South Ameri- ca and the West Indies 10c a half ounce and to the rest of the world 25¢ each half ounce. The present low air mail postage rate of 7c for the first ounce andxSc each additional for letters addressed to points in Canada and the United States will be maintained. This increase in the weight unit without any increase in charges will be a great convenience to the users of air mail. Further, the 15¢ Air Letter form will be discontinued and the 10c form will be used to all destina- tions. These forms will be known in future as "Aerogrammes". Furthermore, international air service for Parcel Post, Printed Matter and Newspapers is being developed and arrangements are being made with the individual countries concerned. As soon as the necessary information is ob- tained a further announcement will be made. Make Your Holiday Carefree Now that the holiday season is upon us, Chief of Police Owen D. Friend has words of wisdom for local people who are going away to their cottage or on trips of any length. In the first place, notify the pol- ice department when you are going away, and for how long, so that they may check up on your resi- dence occasionally. Also whom to get in touch with locally, should any emergency arise. Leave a light burning downstairs, preferably not | ed in the hall. Be sure to cut off your milk and paper delivery, and ask some kind neighbor to pick up any circulars or throwaways that are left on your porch. It might be just as well to leave a door key with the same neighbor, advices the chief. Then enjoy your holiday in peace of mind. WOULD REWARD JURYMEN NIAGARA FALLS, Ont.

THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE Combining The Oshawa Times and Whitby Gazette and Chronicle OSHAWA WHITBY VOL. 12--No. 139 OSHAWA-WHITBY, MONDAY, JUNE 15, 1953 PAGE THREE New Polish Parish Starts Building Graduating Pupils Feted By Home and School Group ELM FARROW Correspondent NORTH OSHAWA -- The grad- uating class of North Oshawa Pub- {lic School, and their parents, were entertained by the Home and School Association on Friday eve- ning. The auditorium was taste- fully decorated with spring flow- ers for the occasion. Stephen G. Saywell introduced the guest speaker of the evening, Rev. Bruce A. Miles of St. Paul's Presbyterian Church. He spoke on the subject "The School of Life". The school of life, said Mr. Miles, is the school from which no one graduates. Whatever we are going to do in life, we must put every- thing we have into it and whether we win or lose, we should always have the satisfaction of knowing that we have done our best. FEAR NOT FAILURE "We must never be afraid of failure. Life is just as full of fail- ure as it is of joy. We must learn to accept the low points of life as well as the high ones. "The time in High School should be a time of fun along with the studies. A time to join groups, take active sports, meet people and léarn to| get Ps with | Swan". them, but also to remember that life itself is a serious proposition. "In the school of life we have one teacher who is always willing ito help and that is Jesus Christ. He is always there to steer us on the right track. When we are ready to graduate from the school of life He is the one to hand us our exam. paper. The one question on this paper will be, 'What have you done with your life?' "' With this thought-provoking re- mark, Rev. Miles closed his talk with "God Bless you go to it and make a good job of GUESTS WELCOMED Chairman for the evening was Frank Ross, principal of the school. Welcoming the guests, Mr. Ross said each June we have the | happy experience of entertaining you, our graduating class, along with your parents. 'For you boys and girls the milestones of life are beginning and this promotion from Public School is. one of the first of such to appear.

When you meet with obstacles as you proceed to higher education, remember she did too. "Study has been her lot since early childhood but she has come through with a smile that moves an Empire. "May you too, persevere and seek that advanced learning which once attained, no one can take away from you. 'The members of the Home and School Association whose guests we are tonight, along with all the teachers on the staff, wish you good luck and hope that all your undertakings will be crowned with success and that each of you will be a credit to your parents and the North Oshawa Public School." MUSICAL PROGRAM Guest artists of the evening were: Louis Zuby, a Grade 8 pu- pil, who played an accordion solo, "Beautiful Days'. Miss Diane Young, a former pupil now at- tending Conlin's School, sang, 'Bless This House', accompanied by Mrs. Harold Werry at. the piano. Miss Sherry Rahma, former pupil, now attending OCVI, danced the ballet, "The: Dance. of the Mrs. Gordon Tomlinson, presi- on completion of their Grade 8 work, and presented each one with a class picture on behalf of the Association. - RECEIVE PICTURES Those receiving pictures were: Marion Angi, Jack Brown, Harry Butt, Sandra Clarke, Ronald co- chrane, Elva Fice, Janet Finley, Sandra Fraser, Murray Glover, Al- bert Gordon, Robert Johnson, Da- vid Leggette, Ruth McKnight, Mur- iel¢/King, Gail Barlow, Carl Bau- der, Dorothy Fish, Barbara Fisher, Diane Knipe, Danny Pawlawsky, Perry Bronstein, Eleanor Tieling, David Vanson, Ruth Varty, Ken- neth Wood, Louis Zuby, Margaret Taylor, Robert Taylor, Joan Tay- lor, Betty Wood, Marjorie Wood and Margaret Traviss.

Refreshments 'were served by the executive of the Association under the convenership of Mrs. completed by the pupils enjoying Navy Still Stays In The Limelight It was very 'wrong, no doubt, Ernest Chisholm Thomson writes for United Kingdom Information Office, for an unknown person the other night to climb the 185-foot column in London's Trafalgar Square and adorn the head of Ad- miral Lord Nelson with the 'Jolly Roger" flag. And yet I have a feel- ing that the intruder, seeing the steeplejacks' ladders still in situ (the statue is being cleaned), was laudably persuaded that here was a chance to shed on the Royal Navy--and all seafarers for that matter--some of the limelight re- cently stolen by the flying men. Airminded we certainly are; the Comets and Canberras keep the United Kingdom in the forefront of the world's aviation news. But we are, and always have been, sea-minded too, and it may be that our nocturnal climber had forgot- ten that the Royal Navy and other navies of the Commonwealth stand in no need of extra limelight at the present time. SPITHEAD REVIEW All the world will be seeing and hearing about them on June 15th. At the great Coronation Naval Re- view at Spithead, Queen Elizabeth will see more than 200 Common- wealth warships, as well as war- ships from 16 foreign navies and some 50 vessels from the Merchant and Fishing fleets and other serv- ices. Anyone familiar with that noble stretch of water between the Isle of Wight and the coast of Hamp- shire, with its land forts and "sally ports" rich in naval history, can piste the scene as the Queen, on oard the dispatch vessel Surprise, sails among one of the greatest fleets ever assembled. Extended in nine lines over four miles, it will be about one-third of the complete numerical strength of the Com- monwealth navies. As I write the ships are begin- ning to gather. The citizens of Portsmouth have already welcom- H. M. Canadian ships Quebec (flagship of Rear-Admiral Bidwell) Ontario, the aircraft carrier Mag- nificent and the destroyer Sioux. The "landing party' included 100 men taking part in the Coronation procession. From Portsmouth, Gosport and the Isle of Wight towns of Ryde and Cowes, vast crowds will watch the Surprise weaving her way past the battleship Vanguard, the Home Fleet flagship, leading a line of nine aircraft carriers. Opposite them the ships of for- eign navies will be drawn up, among them Baltimore (United States), Montcalm (France) and Sverdlov (Russia), all cruisers. There will be cruisers from The Netherlands, Spain and Sweden, and other vessels from Denmark, Belgium and Portugal. PASSENGER SHIPS Famous passenger ships will be thronged with guests and I hear that something like 1,100 private yachts will be anchored north and south of the line of warships. Com- mentaries and the sound of gun salutes will be broadcast by the British Broadcasti Corporation all over the Comm®nwealth and the event will also be seen by mil- lions of televiewers not only in Britain but probably in Western Europe. I understand that tele- films will be flown to Canada and the United States. One of the television camera units will be fitted up on H.M.S. Reclaim, the salvage vessel which ast year located the wrecked sub- marine Affray by means of under- water television cameras. A sec- ond unit will be mounted on the air-craft carrier H.M.S. Eagle and a third on shore at Portsmouth to show the arrival of the Queen and the great naval firewark display at night. TWO LAUNCHINGS Headline shippings news this month has been the launching of two "ultra modern' 28,000-ton lin- ers for the Australia service -- the Orsova at Barrow-in-Furness, the Arcadia at Clydebank. The Many Watch While First Sod Turned Glorious summer sunshine and soft June breezes favored the crowd of more than 400 happy people who gathered at the corner of Olive Avenue and Willingdon Street yesterday afternoon to see the first sod turned for for the building of St. Hedwig's Polish Roman Catholie Church. SEEK VANTAGE POINTS Scattered about on the grassy | hillside, which overlooks a stretch | of open country, and perched even | remarks with the phrase, on a big yellow power shovel which | towered over the site, the people of the Polish community and their friends watched reverently as Rev. P. J. Klita, OMI, pastor of the ory the latter drawing an ap- preciative chuckle by prefacing his "dear brothers and sisters" in Polish. Others who assisted at the turn- ing of the sod were Rev. P. Cof- fey, of Holy Cross parish, Rev. S. honey, St. Gertrude's parish, new parish, his coll of the |M faith and civic dignitaries dedicat- ed the site of Oshawa's newest church. Rev. L. Colinski, of the Oblate College of Mary the Immaculate in Toronto, preached the dedication sermon, in which he told of the Polish people's involvement in the wars of Europe through the last thousand years, stressing how they had kept steadfast to the faith of their fathers, through much suf- fering and hardship. Now the peo- ple of the Polish community in Oshawa were raising a new shrine for the maintenance of that faith, and he was sure God's richest blessing would accompany the ef- fort COLORFUL SCENE Surrounded by the altar boys in their scarlet and purple vestments and the girls of the junior choir in their sparkling Polish costumes, and standing beside the simple wooden cross which marked the site, the Rev. Dr. Paul Dwyer, rector of St. Gregory's Parish, blessed the crowd and turned the first sod, after Fr. Klita had led in the responsive prayers asking God's blessing on the site. The Rev. S. Prokop, OMI, PP, of St. Stanislaus Roman Catholic parish in Toronto and His Worship, Mayor J. W. Naylor addressed the congregation before turning al ah J. G. Pereyma of the Greek Catholic parish, and Rev. S. Bad- erski, OMI, Rev. S. Smith, Rev. L. Colinski, Rev. J. Kucharczyk, OMI, Rev. L. Engel, rector of OMI College, Rev. B. Engel, OMI, all of Toronto, Rev. Dombrowiez of France (en route to Saskatchewan) and the Rev, Sisters Canisia and Bogumila, respectively the Super- ior of the Felician Convent and the first teacher of Polish children in Oshawa. LOCAL DIGNITARIES Among local dignitaries who took a hand at the gaily decorated spade were T. D. Thomas, MLA, Michael Starr, MP, and Aldermen G. Attersley, N. Down, J. Dyer, R. Halliday, C. Harman and W, Powers, all of whom brought greetings and words of congratue lation. Representing the congregation iwas J. Holik and Mrs. A. Gwozdz, president of the Ladies' Auxiliary, while representatives of Polish organization included K. Bednarek, Polish Association, J. Baran, Pol- ish Veterans, E. Sprenglewsky, Branch 7, Polish Alliance, and A. Boncezyk, Branch 21, Polish AL liance. The singing of the hymns at the dedicatory service was ably led {by members of the senior and jun- ior choirs. Spent 20 Minutes By PETER JACKSON THYANGBOCHE MONASTERY, Nepal (Reuters)--The only two men ever to have conquered Mt. Everest told how they embraced each other on the icy summit and had a "good look' at the world be- low before descendi later. Sitting in this snowbound refuge inhabited by Buddhist monks, Sir Edmund Hillary, the 33-year-old New Zealand beekeeper knighted for his achievement, said June 6: "I felt damn good at the top. It was a beautiful day with a mod- erate wind. As we got there, my companion threw his arms around me and embraced me.' And the face of Sherpa guide | Tensing Bhutia, 39, who conquered the 29,002-foot mountain with Hil- lary May 29, creased into a win- ning smile. "Il was very happy and not par- ticularly tired," he said. The lean guide, known as the Orient Line, owners of Orsova, de- scribe her as "the ship of shapes to come." She has an all-welded hull, and because of extensive pre- fabrication, will be completed in January next year, only 24 months after being laid down. This may well be a record in post-war con- struction. Costing 5 million pounds, the same as the Queen Mary 20 years ago, she has no masts and should be easily identifiable with a funnel which has been compared to an inverted flower pot.
