ANNUAL REVIEW OF WOMEN'S ACTIVITIES (Continued From Supplement) Woman's Christian Temperance Formed Oshawa Union in 1894 The Woman's Christian Tem- perance Union is one of the largest women's organizations in the world. The first Cana- dian Unions were organized in 1874, in Owen Sound in May and in Picton in December. Osh- awa Union came into being in 1894. The organization is inter- denominational, being made up of Christian women interested in, and willing to work for the cause of Temperance, and for the relief of sufferng and de- struction caused by the intem- perate use of alcohol. Much of the work is educa- tional, and + among young people, 0 lay are constantly being exposed by TV, magazines and newspapers, to the so-called "glamorous side" of social drinking. The WCTU invites young people of school and Sunday school ages to enter contests, such as_ elocution, poster making, and essays on temperance. Prizes are award- ed to the winners -- books or money to the essay and poster contestants, while the elocution- ists strive for a medal--bronze, silver or gold! We also sponsor young peo- ple for attendance each year, during Christmas week, at the Toc-ALPHA conference, where many discussions are held, and much information gathered re- garding the unwise use of alco- hol as a beverage. sible for a number of children to attend a summer camp where they are taught not only craft, nature, swimming, etc., but Bible and other Christian subjects, as well as temper- ance. Literature on this sub- ject as well as records and films are supplied, and the children learn the "other side" of "so- cial drinking." This year the Oshawa Union was able, with the kind help of Mr. H. Mac- Neil of Simcoe Hall, to send four children who would other- wise have been unable to at- tend such a camp. We look for- ward to working again with the Simcoe Hall staff, and we anti- cipate helping with the work at the newly formed White Cross Centre. The WCTU has various de- partments, all formed with one purpose in mind -- that of help- ing those less fortunate whether it be to help educate them against the evils of alco- hol, or intemperance generally, or to help those who suffer be- cause of its misuse; or whether' it be to supply Christian litera- ture or other needs. through missionaries in many countries. Among other projects under- taken by the missionary depart- ment is the collecting of used postage stamps, which are sold to dealers, and the money thus gained used for work among lepers in Africa, or for hospital work in India. A cordial invitation is extend- The WCTU also makes it pos- ed to all women to attend Osh- Newsy H&S Meetings Attract Parents To Duke Of Edinburgh Variety and quality were the outstanding features of the 1961- 62 programs of the Duke of Edinburgh Home and _ School Association. There were a num- ber of interesting guest speak- ers, also films, a panel, a trip to the library and a most inter- estirly display of handicrafts and pastries pertaining to the var- ious ethnic groups at the school. The regular meetings were held on the first Tuesday of each month with an executive meeting being held the previous Monday. To raise the necessary funds required by the Association for the year's work, a donation of $1.00 was requested from each family and this was very well supported. At our Field Day in June hot dogs and pop were provided for all the children and ribbons were given to the winners of the various events. Also, the girl and boy field day champion were presented with trophies, In addition to the outstanding awa WCTU. The meetings are held at 2 p.m. on the first Tues- day of each month, in Simcoe Street United Church. The executive for 1962-63: President, Mrs. C. S. Lee; vice-presidents, Mrs. H. Brown and Mrs. E.

We also had an educa- of Reading, of which he was a specialist: For our December meeting we were honored by the presence of Rabbi Kutzinger and the Rev. Dr. Leng. Both of these distinguished gentle- men spoke on the meaning of Chanukkah and of Christmas. January brought forth our "Father's Night".
