Lyman Gifford last night cautioned council when it passed a bylaw approving the increase of remuneration paid to the mayor and aldermen. The bylaw, pro- viding for an increase from $3,000 to $4,000 for the mayor and from $600 to 900 for alderman was passed and will now go to the Ontario Municipal Board for its approval. o Ald. Gifford said "the remuner- ation suggested is getting us near what we would have been paying for what we discussed last year a board of control. We are gett- ing near the danger point." The alderman pointed out he was not opposing the bylaw. or $900 a year an alderman should be prepared to sacrifice part of his personal income to his public duties He should be expected to give a good reason, such as sickness, when unable to attend meetings of council and committees, said Ald Gifford. "He should be asked for a good reason even if it embarrasses him --and you can embarrass me if necessary,' he told coancil Ald. Clifford Harman, said he would oppose the bylaw. "I support the increase the mayor's salary," he said, "but I think it is wrong to give alder- men another $300 a year.' in PREFER GAS BLYTH, England (CP) John Bowmaker lives in a municipally- owned house equipped with an elec- tric stove but he wants a gas stove instead.

Geen. The Chorus was comprised of mem- bers of various church choirs and The Motor City Choir Three of the choristers made the journey from Orillia to take part in this presentation. The soloists for this occasion were Mrs. Dor- Walker, soprano soloist of Park Road Baptist Church, To- ronto; Mrs. Ruth Gillan Rep- chuck, contralto soloist of St. Giles Church, Hamilton; Robert Reid, tenor soloist of Bloor St United Church, Toronto, and Jan Simons, well known recitalist to CBC listeners The work of the choir left noth- ing to be desired by the large audience. Of particular beauty was the singing of the Passion Music which included Behold the Lamb Of God, Surely He Hath Born Our Grief, And With His Stripes We Are Healed. The bal- ance of parts and quality of one displayed the exacting training by the Director Mr. Geen who brought forth the beauties of the music as it told the story of our Suffering, Death and Resurrection. The climax was achieved in the thrilling ren- dition of Worthy Is The Lamb and The Hallelujah Chorus Mrs. Walker who is not a new- comer to Oshawa audiences, who have heard her sing with Muriel Gidley Stafford in Recital sang the Recitative passages in fine style with clarity of tone and dic- tion. Particularly convincing was her performance of I Know That My Redeemer Liveth. The contralto solos were most ably sung by Ruth Gillan Rep- chuck who is ever popular with Oshawa music lovers who have | had the pleasure of hearing sher sing on numerous occasions. Her singing of He Was Despised was most moving. Her voice met with ease the demands made upon it in the exacting solos The tenor soloist, Robert Reid, is- a newcomer to Oshawa and his first notes captured the hearts of his hearers. He has a voice of ample proportions for this beauti- ful work and his fine diction made all of his singing clear. Particular- ly beautiful was the pathos with which he imbued Thy Rebuke Hath Broken His Heart. He gave a brilliant rendition of Thou Shalt Dash Them. It was the hope of everyone present that Mr. Reid would return to Oshawa in the near future and perform here once again The baritone, Jan Simons, sang with fine distinction of tone and delivered the difficult passages in Who May Abide The Day of His Coming with ease and skill. His best effort was perhaps in The Trumpet Shall Sound which had many moments of noble tone and adequate power. The accompani- ments were most ably played by Kelvin James who gave the solo- ists splendid support at all times, and received their warmest ap- preciation for his work. In the ac- companiments for the Chorus, Mr. James maintained an excellent balance throughout and added much to the success of the pre- sentation. This the culmination of weeks of hard work under the exacting tuition of Mr. Geen who has the gift of obtaining the very best from those who have the privilege of working under his tuition. This was an evening long to be remembered by those who were | fortunate enough to be present The Oshawa Centre of the Cana- dian College of Organists is be congratulated on this splendid effort which provided the audience with such, a memorable evening.

BOARD OPPOSED The planning board still oppose any move to change the residen- tial clasification of the remainder of this artery, saying it believes there would not be enough of even the average type business to justify the change. The board main- tains its stand that reclassifying the road would result in scattered stores and generally 'spotty de- velopment' | The board adds the reminder | that Park road is still principally a traffic street Ald. Joseph Victor said almost all the residents in the vicinity of that part of the road consid- ered for rezoning had signed the petition against the move. There were 33 signatures on the peti tion WHAT GAIN Ald. John Dyer, one of council's two representatives on planning board, was emphatically opposed to tabling the matter. He told coun- cil: "On February 16 the planning board considered this and recom-| mended no change be made. This week the board met again and reconsidered part of Park road What is to be gained by tabling this two more weeks?" Ald. Dyer claimed that to do so | was suggesting planning board had still something to say Ald. Lyman Gifford, also a plan- ning board member, moving that the matter be tabled, said he would {explain his reasons confidentially to any member of council who car- ed to ask him afterwards To Ald.

The lesson was read from Joel 2:1-17. Last time I spoke to you, said Mr. Wemp, 1 left you with the thought that we would have a na- tional day of repentance and prayer, I wondered what would happen to bring it about, we have had days of prayer before, but not rational repentance. You have heard read from God's word that there will be a national repent- ance on a scale never known be- fore, when we as a people shall |ask God to help us out of the | mess we have got ourselves into. I should like to suggest that when you go home you read the 36th | chapter of Ezekiel. In that chapter we are told we shall make a right | about face, asking the King, Jesus | | Christ himself to come back to us.

Of other agonies that are imminent at the close of this age.
