p a the stouffviiu tribune 1mjsday jawua81t 19 1954 the stouffville tribune established 83 a v nolan son publishers member of the canadian weekly newspapers association and the ontarioquebec

nolan publisher jas thxas soe editor cbc take a bow while were not in the habit of handing out bouquets to the cbc we could not but cast an approving thought their way on friday evening as we heard ii v kaltenborn dean of american news analysts speaking on that popular ed murrow tv show per son to person state that american tv was falling down because of its few attempts to fulfill its purpose in the educational field and in the field of news anal ysis the cbc has several good programs along this line one ijeing a regular sunday night feature follow ing the 11 pm news action wanted now stouffville municipal council has held the first meeting of the new year with the second slated for this thursday evening jan 19th its not too soon to expect action to properly organize our police force which is presently practically nil one good officer has been engaged another should be added immediately along with suitable transportation the public is de manding action on this vital matter now our parking laws are being flouted on every hand the present officer is unable to be available at all times and thus general supervision is lacking he is also up to this week still without a uniform there is no proper transportation for the police and hooligans are finding it out every week we will soon be returned to the hectic days of the preopp era the percentage of residents who complained of the cost of policing by the opp was negligible but as was predicted now that there are neither sufficient policing nor costs there is grumbling on every hand stouffville is a busy growing community and the residents demand uptodate services few there are who complain of the cost if the service is good but curtail the service and complaints pour in on every hand it has always been an utterly ridiculous idea that one officer can be on 2lhour service seven days a week and we are sure the one new man engaged will agree the time to set this department up properly is now this is a vital matter and one on which council should not hedge stouftville has had councils in the past who operated on stall and delay tactics for an entire twelve months we believe the 1956 council is made up of vigorous members who will move with determination and we await with interest their course of action friday the thirteenth pity the poor soul who is overlysuperstitious in 1950 have you heard that this year friday 13 occurs three times v once this month once in april and once in july think of it three times in one year when bad hick can multiply we knew of a woman who was so superstitious that she just couldnt bring herself to go anywhere even to work on friday 33 it got to the point where she wouldnt even get out of bed on a friday 13 not only that but it is leap year too the un wary bachelor will surely get himself corallcd this year and probably on one of these fridays we dont happen to be superstitious so it shouldnt bother us we never care about walking under a ladder or spilling salt or breaking a mirror or having a black cat cross our path things like that are so childish really after all what could a black cat possibly have to do with our fate why thats silly we are not now never was and never will be superstitious ffmm for parents only m emotional stability fly xrmcy cleaver laff of the week mothers and fathers are often i i ifused by the emphasis to- ay on mental health ard the warnings to parents that much emotional instability begins in childhood it almost makes you scared when you find out that there are more mental patients occu pying hods in our hospitals than those suffering from all the other varied uinesses what if our boy or gir should become unbalanced in adult life because we have been unwise in our training one mother asked a

horse at tennis last week religion in russia last june at the world baptist conference held in london england the president whose name was dr meclean who has visited russia several times since 1950 gave a report on his most recent visit in the spring of 1955 da jicclean began by expressing regret that most people used the term athiest and communist synonymously communism is a political term said dr meclean and there are thousands of communists in our churches in russia he visited christian churches in over a score of cities and said the churches are much stronger and more virile than for many years many i visited were filled to overflowing and i was amazed at the proportion of young people there was a fervent enthusiasm i have seldom seen equalled anywhere they have suffered but they have been purged and cleansed everywhere i went it was the same encouraging conditions this is good news and coroborates what observers other visitors to russia have reported it is evident that over the long history of the christian church persecution has cleansed and invigorated the church and no doubt history will repeat itself in russia during the first three hundred years of its history there was bitter persecution of christianity and thousands of devout people suffered many of them being tortured to death this is not to be wondered at considering the age in which these events took place the coming of christianity meant the overthrow of heathen systems of religion and so whenever there was a pagan festival there was a fanatical and savage wave of animosity against believers often in crowded arenas the spectators watched christians being torn limb from limb by wild beasts and while their heroic courage frequently impressed onlookers the lust for blood pre vailed as the frenzied crowds shouted away with the atheists among the many who showed almost unbelieveable courage was a young roman named adrian he was a praetorian guard during the reign of emperor galcrius maximian a reign char acterized by much savage and brutal persecution of christians in ad 280 adrian was twentyeight years of age and his skill and daring as a soldier had led to one promotion after another like the apostle paul many years earlier he had been zealous in the persecution of those who followed jesus and for the same reason he believed they were a menace but the calmness and courage of those he was sent to torture made a deep impression upon him there was nothing young adrian admired so much as fortitude under suffering and here among these christians he came face to face with such heroism as he had never seen on any field ol battle how great a struggle went on in the heart of adrian we do not know he was still young and his position well established no doubt his family was proud of a record so outstanding and a future so promising to one of the christians being tortured he said what gives you this strength and joy in the midst of your sufferings ouh lond jesus christ in whom we believe the martyr replied at that moment adrian made a swift and important de cision he stepped up to where the heathen judges sat and said put down my name among those to be tortured i also shall become a christian adrian lived for twentythree years after his conversion he suffered much but his was a magnificent record for never once did he flinch in his loyalty to christ in ad 303 he was slain at nicomedia his limbs were cut from his body on an anvil and he was then beheaded for seventeen centuries he has been the patron saint of soldiers who remember his fearless declara tion put

insti tutions and the city of oshawa preliminary talks were very encouraging the county jail subject of much criticism in the past is to be replaced by a new struc ture the welcome news of provincial government appro val of a new jail was relayed to county council recently by warden harry peel the old jail was built in 1s53 i the contractor was james yval- lace who started construction of both the court house and the jail in that year it was one of the provisions of separation of ontario coun ty from the united counties of j york peel and simcoe that be- fore the county could be set up it must have its own county buildings call for tender accordingly the provisional council of the county engaged the services of cumberland and storm a firm of architects of toronto previously the firm had submitted plans authoriza tion was given the architects to call for tenders for the coun ty buildings a tender submit ted by james wallace in the amount of 579 was accepted the cost of the old jail was not separated from the total the new jail will probably cost close to half a million dollars stone for the old jail was brought from queenston the walls of the jail and the divis ions between the cells are is inches thick many improvements have been made to the structure dur ing the years in an attempt to modernize it when electrical power became available the building was wired and electric fixtures replaced candles and coal oil lamps plumbing was installed to replace the outside j conveniences the results still fall far short of present day construction worst in province three years ago the jail was termed the worst in the prov ince by a select committee grand juries down through the year- have found many faults and brought in critical reports twentyfive years ago one cell block was remodelled the i stone walks were torn out and steel bar cells installed subse quent councils failed to con- l untie with this work in the be- i lief that money spent in the old building was to some extent wasted the jail was built to accom- modate 20 prisoners in recent i years as many as 19 have heen incarcerated in the same space the womens cell block has been used for male prisoners and any
