in New- 

pjyket. saia tnai " "-as the 
need of a root over our head 
,hai prompted the company to 
1«& to Newmarket for a site for 
it new Plant. The Sangamo 
company will produce electric 
capacitors or condensers which 
are required in radios and other 
fleclronic products. 

The Sangamo plant in New- 
market will be the second in 
Canada to make the condensers," 
Mr. Lawrence . said- "There* is 
2B0ther firm in Hamilton mak- 
ing them, otherwise all con- 
densers have had to be imported 
from the United States." The 
company builds electric meters 
and* motors and the production 
cf condensers will be a new de- 
parture. 

The Leaside plant of the 
Sangamo company was estab- 
lished in 1913 and now employs 
K0. Mr. Lawrence said that it 
was expected that 40 would be 
<rr.p!oyed in Newmarket, mostly 
girls and women, and as* much 



those who lived in 
or its vicinity. "It 



as possible, 

Newmarket 

is very light but intricate work 

at which women and girls have 

been found to be expert," said 

Mr. Lawrence. "It will take us 

a few months to get into pro- 
duction because we must set up 
machinery which is hard .to get 
at present." 

The parent ' company of the 
Sangamo Electric is situated in 
Springfield. III. Mr. Lawrence 
said that the word "sangamo" is 
Indian for "chief" and that the 
word has common usage in the 
district of Springfield. 

Councillor Jos. Vale, chairman 
of the industrial committee of 
the Newmarket town council, 
said that the Sangamo company 
would sign a three-year lease on 
the building with option for re- 
newal and possibly option to 
purchase the building. 

Mr. Lawrence said that the 
Newmarket plant would be 
operated independently of the 
Leaside plant and managed by 
an engineer living in Newmar- 
ket.

Average 150 Children 

At Lions Park Program 



Plan Extra Play 
For Younger 




ren 



It was decided to operate play- 
pounds for children six years 
and under at St. John's school 
and Alexander Muir school at a 
meeting of the executive of the 
Newmarket Community Recrea- 
tion Council Tuesday night The 
council executive met in the 

room over the fireball. 

The decision followed after it 
had been pointed out by mem- 
bers of the executive, and by 
recreation co-ordinator E. R. 
Mather, that many of" the chil- 
dren in that age group in the 
forth end of town were missing 
the benefits of the Lions club 
program at Lions club park be- 
cause of the distance. It was 
felt that by operating supple- 
mentary playgrounds at the two 
tfhools, supervised recreation 
could be provided m sufficiently 
dose at hand to reach all chil- 
dren in Newpiarket. 

ft was, estimated by Mr. 
Mather that each playground 
could serve over 40 children 
u>der six years of age. 

The playgrounds will be sup- 
ervised from 0.30 to 11.30 a.m. 
wd from 1.30 to 4 p.m. by Peggy 
Calvert, Joyce Hargreavcs, Bar- 
bara Pritchard and Dorothy Ver- 
Wfl- The playgrounds will be 
Quipped with sandboxes, simple 
tetter-totters, swings, and other 
tf&y equipment suitable to the 
»fe group, Mr. Mather said. 

The girls in charge v/ill super* 
Vise group games, singing games 
*M simple craft activities. 

There will be no enrolment 
« children, nor will there be 
w>y fee to parents, Mr. Mather

will be met by the recreation 

council. 

Mr. Mather stressed that the 
two playgrounds were being 
opened not in opposition to the 
Lions club program, but to* meet 
the needs of children who lived 
too far away from the Lions 
park to participate in the Lions- 
club program. The age-limit of 
six was set because it was felt 
that children older than this 
could take advantage of the park 
program. 



An average of 150 children of 
grade school age participate in 
the Newmarket Lions club sum- 
mer program of supervised rec- 
reation in the Lions club park, 
Mickey Smith, supervisor, said 
this week. 

"We had 900 children here last 
week up until Friday when the 
rainstorm came," said Mr. Smith. 
"If it wasn't for the rain, our 
average would have been a lot 
higher." , 

Under 'the direction of Mr. 
Smith and his four assistants, 
the children engage in group 
games of all varieties, while the 
smaller children use the teeter- 
totters, swings and sand boxes. 
Wednesday afternoon, for ex- 
ample, there were two baseball 
games, a croquet match and a 
volley-ball game going on simul- 
taneously in various parts of the 
park. 

The age of the children ranges 
from two and three years to 14 
and 15 years. The program runs 
for six weeks and started a 
week ago Monday. There is no 
charge for parents, all costs of 
the program being met by the 
Lions club. 

This is the second year the 
club program has been operated. 
Last year, the club initiated the 
program under the direction of 
Vice Principal Fred L. Hall. 
With the overwhelming success 
of the program, there v/as no 
question of not continuing it. 

Mr. Smith said that he had 
plans for meeting other recrea- 
tion groups, such as the one in 
Barrio, for baseball competition. 
Next week, Mr. Smith said he 
might try a kite-building contest 
at the park. The program oper- 
ates every week-day afternoon 
from 1.30 to 4.30. 

Assisting Mr. Smith are Aud- 
rey Rowland and Glenna West, 
both of whom were in the last 
year program. Donny Duncan 
and Don Gibson.

The rest-room operated by the 
Newmarket branch of the Wo- 
men's Institute and under the

it was that entered the rest- 
room at the corner of Main and 
Botsford Sts., spent the night 
there. .Chief Constable James 
Leeder said that the bed in the 
rest-room had been used arid 
the blankets were tossed about. 
It is believed that it was a 
young person- who entered the 
room. 




One person died of injuries and two others are serious- 
ly injured following a two-car accident on the highway six 
miles north of Bradford Wednesday noon. Mrs. Marie Kar- 
son, 35, Detroit, Mich., died 20 minutes after she was ad-

Main St. with its lights on and 
horn blaring shortly after 1 pjn.

Happy to bo in Canada, Mrs. 
Hansen said she is most impress-

"It makes a contrast with our 
rainy weather in Scotlami," 
she said. She found the stores 
"bewildering" with their pro- 
fusion of goods on the shelves. 



Mrs. Hansen was a volunteer 
worker on a mobile canteen- dur-

in London, lost her hearing for 
three weeks when a bomb fell

Brisk Bidding Opens Sale 
At Camp Before Big Crowd 



Bidding was brisk as the furn- 
ishings, sports equipment, bar- 
ber chairs, adding machines, 
typewriters, and all the thous- 
and and one objects left in the 
Newmarket military camp when 
the camp was closed by the 
army, were knocked down to the 
highest bidder Wednesday after- 
noon in the first day of a two- 
day auction Ale. The sale con- 
tinues this afternoon and eve- 
ning with ,the evening bidding 
beginning at 7 p.m. 

Eager buyers came from Tor- 
onto in large numbers as well as 
from the surrounding farms, and 
towns and villages. Estimates of 
the crowd ranged as high as 
3,000 with a large part of those 
present crowding into the drill 
hall where auctioneer J. Miller 
Jo* Ward Price Ltd., Toronto, 



called for bids. * 

There was wide range in prico 
as typewriters were knocked 
down for $70, coffee urns such 
os arc found in restaurants went 
for $70, a hand cultivator for 
$1.8, an adding machine for $85, 
and a chesterfield for $140. An 
electric- . washing machine sold 
for $70. 

The parade ground was lined 
with cars and others parked 
down Gorham St. on both sides 
of the road, and on all roads 
leading to the camp. The crowd 
started to gather as early as 
noon although the auction sale 
didn't begin until 2 p.m. 

Much of the bidding' was done 
on behalf of second hand stores 
In Toronto with the odd bit of 
furniture going to Newmarket

TOWN ENGINEER 
A SOUND MOVE 

Councillor Joseph Vale, chairman of the indus- 
trial commission of the Newmarket town council, 
has given notice that he would introduce at the 
next meeting of the Newmarket town council a 
motion to authorize the full time employment of 
a graduate civil engineer. 

Mr. Vale's notice of motion arose from the oft 
repeated assertion by various members of coun- 
cil that the work members of council must do is 
more than should be expected of what amounts 
to a voluntary group of public spirited men. 
Following the closing of the negotiations with 
the Canadian Hoffman Co., Mr. Vale .said then 
that the work entailed had taken so much of his 
time that his own business had suffered. Others 
were in the same position. 

• It is often forgotten that the members of the 
Newmarket town council all have their own busi- 
nesses to look after as well as the town business 
and at the present rate of expansion in Newmar- 
ket, members of the council are increasingly 
called upon to do work* which cuts unreasonably 
into their own time. The office of councillor 
carries with it the understanding that it entails 
extra labor. However, there can be no question 
that the present council has gone far beyond 
what is expected of them in their efforts on be- 
half of the municipality. On this score alone, 
the employment of a trained man to assume some 
of the detailed work and relieve the town coun- 
cillors for more leisurely consideration of local 
problems is justified. ' 

There is another aspect of the employment of 
a trained engineer which is even more pressing. 
The expansion of Newmarket is bringing with it 
problems which increasingly call for expert ad- 
vice. Newmarket retains a consulting engineer 
but he is not always available when needed. For 
example, the disposal of the Newmarket military 
camp property in the best interests of the town 
will need constant expert advice. The properly 
offers so many advantageous uses that the coun- 
cil will be hard put to make a choice. Sale or 
leasing the property to industry is not the only 
answer. % 

Constant attention is also needed to uphold the 
by-laws which affect construction.. A town plan 
by which its expansion can be directed to the 
best advantage is badly needed. Sooner or later, 
the property along Davis Dr., west of Main St,, 
will open into a new business section. Planning 
against that day is a necessity now. 

The town council is primarily a policy-making 
body. At the present time, its members must 
deal with details to such an extent that the 
broad picture of town needs is often obscured by 
the needs of individual departments. A graduate 
engineer is a sound suggestion to not only ease 
the burden on councillors but to provide for 
planned expansion and improvement of existing 
facilities.

The possession of a dog carries with it an auto- 
matic entree into that ancient, honorable and I 
somewhat exclusive order of dog owners. Eating 
back to. the" time the first cavemen tamed their 
first dogs, the honorable and ancient order recog- 
nizes no distinction of age, sex, and social stand- 
ing among its members. While it is true that 
some of the more recent candidates to the order, 
owners of purebreds with pedigrees as long as 
your arm, are inclined to snob the possessor of a 
backyard mongrel, the rule is that the dog is the 
thing and if the dog likes his master and the 
master likes the dog, all conditions have been 
fulfilled. 

The other night, we were being led up Main 
St. by our cocker when -a youngster of eight 
years or so attached himself to the possession. 
He identified himself as a brother of the order 
and with some diffidence remarked that he had 
a collie, six years old, by name of Teddy. Teddy 
was a boon companion and boy and dog had 
shared some colorful adventures in the nearby 
fields and bush. 

Moreover, Teddy had something of a record in 
criminal detection, having scared off some 
marauders with his loud barking in the dead of 
one winter's night. We were somewhat abashed 
afr this, our cocker barking only when there is no 
one around to witness the sad spectacle of a pup 
being frightened by the sound of his own voice. 
We said nothing, however, Mac's secret shame 
being ours. , 

Fortunately, our brother dog owner changed 
the subject. "Your dog is a hunting dog, isn't 
he?" he asked. We assured him he was, a 
mighty hunter at that. The fact is that after a 
hectic chase, Mac caught a frog and brought it 
home, quite proud of himself. Our companion's 
eyes looked upon Mac with new respect. "He's 
rather small for hunting, isn't he?" he asked 
doubtfully. "Size is no object," we assured him. 

"It's the spirit that counts" 

From there the talk drifted into the problems 
of keeping long-haired dogs with tendencies to 
play in burr patches. We found common ground 
there as we did in talking over the various 
canine ills which were discussed with all the 
avidity for details of doting mothers threshing 
out their youngsters' sicknesses at a school tea 
party. When we parted at the top of the hill, we 
were fast friends, linked by our possession of 

dogs. 

We can't help moralizing on the value of man's 
four-footed companions. They do far more for us 
than we can return by teaching concern for 
others, standing by when less faithful friends 
have left, and bringing us in contact with others 
who share in the same pleasure of owning a 
dog.

"Canada must frame a policy for the Arctic, 
the Financial Post says in a front page editorial. 
Canada has been under pressure from the United 
States to provide some means of defence along 
its northern frontier, as well as to aid in the set- 
ting up of weather stations, the Post says. In a 
news story in the Post, it is reported that a 
meteorological expedition which was to sail from 
Boston to the Arctic to establish weather bases 
was halted when the Dominion cabinet refused 
to participate in the expedition. According to the 
Post, everything was ready for the expedition 
when "officialdom, worried about Canadian 
sovereignty and how Russia would view the 
undertaking, stepped in and stalled the under-

ABATING JUVENILE 
DELINQUENCY' 

The Juvenile, Law Reform League, Victoria, 
B.C., is conducting a campaign to have the fed- 
eral laws applying penalties to juvenile convic- 
tions changed to include corporal punishment. 
The league is apparently convinced of the truth 
of the old saw that to spare the rod is to spoil 
the child. 

In pamphlets published by the league, it is 
argued that the increase in juvenile delinquency 
would be slowed and eventually halted by the 
application of corporal punishment to juvenile 
law-breakers. One pamphlet mentions "five 
different warnings of the terrible consequences 
which follow the failure to chastise children" 
which are attributed to Solomon. "Are we wiser 
than Solomon?" it is asked. 

While respecting the league's purpose, the 
curbing of juvenile delinquency, in its zeal to 
affect the cure it would appear that the league is 
over-looking the prevention of juvenile delin- 
quency. The league apparently accepts juvenile 
delinquency as an unalterable fact to be cured 
only by corporal punishment. 

The league, we feel, would accomplish more 
Were it to concentrate on removing the causes of 
juvenile delinquency instead V waiting until the 
lav/ was broken and then punishing. the juvenile 
so that he wouldn't do it again. 

The league might exert. its influence to have 
slums removed since it has been proven that 
slum areas arc a breeding place for. juvenile 
delinquency no less than for crime among adults. 
The league might devote its energies and the un- 
doubted talcpt of its members to doing v/hat it 
can to assure there will be no future wars since 
war is followed by increased juvenile delin- 
quency. 

The .league might do v/hat it could to re- 
establish home life v/hich has been deteriorating 
eince the turn of the century. Much juvenile 
delinquency is directly attributed to broken 
homes. Or the league might provide recreation 
centres as a decent outlet for juvenile energy. In 
some of the larger cities in the United States, the 
city police have served in their spare time as 
hobby directors, handicraft instructors, club or-. 
ganlzers, coaches, and big brothers to juvonile 
gangs with the result that potential delinquents 
Have become Round members of society. V/c 
recommend to the league that it sponsor such 
work in Canada. 

While there ore some delinquents who v/ould 
profit from corporal puniEhrhent, the majority of 
those appearing in juvenile courts need never 
have been allowed to go so far. Abating Juvenile 
delinquency rests not In corporal punishment but 
Sn keeping children from ever having U appear 
in court. 



The Midland Free Press Herald suggests edi- 
torially that provision of "dry" public rooms 
where men and women can get together socially 
would be an effective way to combat the abuses 
of the present beverage room policy of the pro- 
vincial government. 



The editor of the Bolton Enterprise of 50 years 
ago viewed with alarm the increasing popularity 
of the bicycle. He wrote; 

"John Bolton broke his arm while bicycling. 
Is this new fad too dangerous? Many do not ap- 
pear to think the bicycle craze conduces to matri- 
monial alliances. The bicycle is decreasing mar- 
riages. One hundred thousand bicycles are now 
in use in the country. A young man now takes 
his wheel out for an airing instead of his girl. Of 
course, girls have the bikes too but bicycle 
sparking strikes us as being a mighty poor sub- 
stitute for the old-fashioned' kind, the old wal- 
nut sofa, the cloth-covered sofa, the spring seated 
sofa you hung on so well. The old style buggy 
ride is good enough — that is, it was good enough 
for us." 



The Scarboro police are reported to have 
issued the v/arning to parents of minors who 
have been breaking windows and damaging 
woodwork in buildings under construction that 
they v/ould have to pay the costs of charges 
brought against their children. Here is a sug- 
gestion that should be given more prominence. 
By penalizing the parents of minors who have 
broken the law, a greater av/areness of their 
responsibilities for their children's actions would 
be brought home to parents in general. It is the 
parents' fault if the child does not respect the 
law. 



Miss Betty Entertains 
Miss Betty Is five years old and 
possesses a child's natural curio- 
sity and eagerness for participa- 
tion in the activities Ground her. 

For the past three years, Betty's 
mother has been trying to "get rid 
of her" at times when she is too 
busy to answer her questions and 
at times when she; is trying to 
entertain guests. The difficulties 
have increased with the years. 
Miss Betty can't be confined to 
the play pen, Ker room, or even 
the yard anymore. She doesn't 
want to miss a thing. At one 
time, mother could do extra cook-

Anniversaries seem to loom 
large in the life of the individual, 
the community, and the nation— 
they ."are the .milestones by 
which we measure progress or 
retrogression; and so are import- 
ant. ; . 

The birthdays "of each of us — 
a day after we have left the 
joyful celebrating of extreme 
youth behind us, when we take 
stock of our resources — mental, 
spiritual and physical; a day 
when we look on our inner 
glass and even if we see but 
darkly, it gives us some idea of 
our development. 

The birthday of a community, 
large or small, when people who 
have wandered away from it 
come back to taste its hospital-' 
ity, enter into its celebration and 
wonder either why they ever left 
it or what charm it ever had for 
them.

aration for guests during Betty's 
sleeping hours; but now, mother Is 
ready for a rest herself after 
Betty's busy day Is ended. 

It is really time Betty had a 
definite share in the preparations 
for guests. She can be responsible 
for the last' minute and often 
superfluous dusting of table tops. 
chair rounds, etc. while mother is 
busy jvith the vacuum sweeper or 
floor mop. There's no reason why 
Betty can't take, a place by the 
kitchen sink and try to wash and 
dry dishes and utensils faster than 
mother dirties them. Betty could 
set most of the table ond even use 

a polishing cloth on the silver. 

Another little job that would be 
helpful to mother and pleasurable 
to Betty would be picking flowers 
for the table. To avoid roots and 
all or blossoms without stems a 
pair of blunt scissors and a meas- 
uring stick should be provided 
Betty for the purpose of cutting 
fairly uniform stem lengths. This 
will take time and will be an 
important contribution. If 
flowers aren't in season, the table 
decoration could be anything from 
little clay animals arranged on a 
mirror lake to repainted artificial 
flowers in a bowl. There Is no 
limit to designs for. decoration. 
Soon Betty won't need her moth- 
er's suggestions but will be doing 
her own designing. Betty con be

leaders, in its men, women and 
children, in its riches on land 
and sea and in its spiritual and 
humanitarian outlook on life and 
its connection with the great 
world where nations now must 
live close together. 

And • then there are the 
church anniversaries, for in 
every Christian land the first 
impulse of men was to erect a 
building, dedicated to the glory 
and worship of God. . 

Churches have always been 
sanctuaries, even to giving shel- 
ter to those threatened by death, 

and a church's anniversary is a 
combination of all other anniver- 
saries for in it, we bring our 
young to be baptized, to become 
members of the Christian fel- 
lowship, to be married, to be 
buried and in it the life of the 
community and the nation is 
reflected. One wonders, seeing 
a deserted church, just where 
the failure lay. 

But to come to one particular 
anniversary — that of the Pine 
Orchard Union church. A year 
ago it opened its doors for wor- 
ship. • Some of the old meeting 
house is incorporated in its 
sturdy frame, like the great 
beams that form the chancel 
setting, a monument to the 
sturdy pioneer folk who -first

company. 

Previous to the company's arri- 
val and before the scurry' of last 
minute preparations, Betty should 
know who Is coming, and what to 
expect. Interesting stories could 
be told her about the expected 
company, pictures from books and 
magazines might be found that 
would be suitable for Illustrations, 
then Betty might be encouraged 
to draw or color some pictures to 
please herself and at least amuse 
the guests. 

Before the company arrives, 
tentative plans might be mode for 
Betty to have a shore in the enter- 
taining. Her part In the program 
could necessitate considerable 
time In her room for preparation 
after the company arrives. She 
might arrange a fashion show 
with her dolls. It would take time 
to dress them and herself with 
ribbons and materials saved for 
the purpose. She might prepare 
an art- exhibit of cut-outs, colored 
or drawn pictures or arrange a 
parade with her animals. There

first anniversary «..«, 

with .beautiful flowers, welcomed 

all those who met to rejoice that 

it was still a house of God. 

It was also the occasion of the 
unveiling of the honor roll which 
stood on a table in front of the 
chancel steps. One of the 
pleasantest things of the day 
was the presence of Rev. R. R. 
McMath, whose efforts helped 
so greatly in bringing the pres- 
ent church into being and who 
also planned in great part the 
order of service which follow^. 
Doxology; invocation and Lord's 
Prayer, led by Rev. N. Rowan, 
present pastor; hymn, All Hail 
the Power of Jesus' Name; an- 
them, Hark, Hark My Soul; alto 
solo, Mrs. A. M. Colville; so- 
prano solo and obligato, Miss B. 
Hope; New Testament lesson; 
hymn, O God Our Help in Ages 
Past; unveiling of the honor 
roll by Rev. R. R. McMath who 
spoke with deep feeling of the 
boys who gave so much and so 
willingly and counted not the 
cost. As Mr. McMath read the 
roll, David Preston and Stuart 
Toole inserted a small flag for 
each name in pjaces prepared for 
them before the roll. In the 
centre, in the place of greatest 
honor and remembrance, was in- 
serted a small white, wooden 
cross for the boy who made the 
supreme sacrifice. 

The. calling of the roll was 
followed by a moment of silent 
remembrance and prayer. 

A duet, Gounod's Forever With 
the Lord, was sung- by Mr. 
and Mrs. Colville. 

The offering followed with 
prayer by Mr. McMath,. after 
wljich he introduced the speaker, 
Rev. Mr. Smith, Presbyterian 
church, Newmarket. Mr. Smith 
spoke of the gallantry of the 
Canadians who were ready, even 
at the expense of what youth 
holds dear — life — to battle with 
the; hydra-headed monster of evil 
let loose in the world by Germ- 
any and Japan and to win in the 
name of God and country. 

The musical part of the ser- 
vice was under the direction of 
Mrs. Geo. Woocjs, pianist, and A. 
MJ Colville, choirmaster. The 
hymn, Peace, Perfect Peace, and 
the benediction followed

ELECTRIC EYE 



VAUGHAN TO BE COMMENDED 
(The Liberal, Richmond Hill) 
Vaughan council is to be commended for its 
decision to license and exercise some control over 
tourist camps. There can be no reason why any 
group of people living everi for a night In a com- 
munity should not be subject to the public 
authority. Hotel guesls are subject to it. Why 
not tourist camp guests? And why should they 
not )>e a source of revenue when year-round 
residents of a town or village are obliged to pro- 
vide public revenue in the form of taxes. 



By J. JAY WATSON 

What is -spoken of as the 
electric eye is a contrivance by 
which, for example, ns a. person 
approaches a door so equipped, 
the door is automatically made 
to open before him as his shad- 
ow falling upon the "electric 
eye" sets in motion the ma- 
chinery which opens the door. 

Sometimes in a large office 
building, or railway stations, 
one will come upon a door oper- 
ated in this way. When the door 
opens without even so much as 
extending one's hand for a push, 
one is apt to feel something akin 
to egotism as the door swings as 
if by authoritative command. 

There is available to all, if wc 
choose, v/hat might be called an 
"electric eye" of the spirit as 
applied to character. In the 
time of Moses, the Command- 
ments for God's guidance of 
mankind were given to the 
world. The influence and color- 
ing of man's life by these com- 
mandments might be as an 
"electric, eye," automatically 
kindling the Christian principles 
the world needs that peace moy 
reign over the earth. 
- The desire for peace might 
v/cll be expressed in terms given 
by Amos: "Behold, the days 
come; saith the Lord Jehovah, 
that I will send a famine in the 
land, not a famine of bread, nor 
a thirst for water, but of hearing 
the words .of Jehovah.".

Prime Minister King left this 
week for Paris where he will 
attend the peace conference. He 
was accompanied by Hon. 
Brooke Claxton and several top- 
ranking officials from the de- 
partment of external affairs. 
This conference will consider 
terms of peace with Italy, Ro- 
mania, Bulgaria, Hungary and 
Finland, and while it was hoped 
it would be a conference for 
drafting terms with all nations, 
it is at least a start and an en- 
couraging sign. Here it is felt 
that we cannot start too soon on 
the big task of rebuilding the 
war-torn world. 

. In announcing the conference, 
the prime minister said: "The 
Paris conference is not to be con- 
fused with a peace conference to 
determine the final settlement 
with respect to Germany. While 
the Paris conference is of im- 
portance in what it may accom- 
plish in creating a more peaceful 
atmosphere in Europe, it will be 
concerned neither with the treat- 
ies of peace with the major 
enemy countries, Germany and 
Japan, nor with international 
problems as a whole, such as are 
the concern of the United 

Notions. The plans for a confer- 
ence respecting Germany and 
the date on which it may be held 
have still to be determined. It 
is not possible at the moment 
even to suggest a probable date. 
Nor, as I have said, will the 
conference which, meets in Paris 
on July 29 be concerned, direct- 
ly or indirectly, with the con- 
ference which presumably win 
be held ere long with respect to 
Japan and Pacific questions. 

"Although this is still one 
world, and its peace is indivis- 
ible, it is apparent that some 
countries are much more closely 
and directly concerned than 
others with the specific solu- 
tions of questions of territorial 
boundaries, population transfers, 
war damage, indemnities, and 
so on. Such will be the class or 
kind of subject to be discussed 
at the forthcoming Paris confer- 
ence. They obviously are of pri- 
mary interest to the European 
countries. In these circum- 
stances, Canada's principal in- 
terest and duty will, it seems to 
me, lie in helping the countries 
more directly concerned to 
work out agreed solutions which 
are fair and will be likely to 
endure. Our national interest is 
to see that, as far as possible, 
the peace treaties are based 
upon broad and enduring prin- 
ciples of justice and equity. 
Canada is not seeking territory 
or reparations, but we do want 

a lasting peace." 

The finance minister, Hon. 
James L. Hslcy, will represent 
Canada at the U.N.R.R.A. meet- 
ing in Geneva, which opens 
August 5. During the absence 
of Mr. King and Mr. Hsley, the 
minister of justice, Hon. L. S. 
St. Laurent, will be acting prime 
minister and Hon. D. C. Abbott 
will be acting minister of finance. 

It has not been an eventful 
week in parliament as much of 
it was taken up in budget debate. 
Some criticism was forthcoming 
from opposition parties but 
much of it was inconsistent and 
little was definite or construc- 
tive. Opposition members de- 
plored the fact that income tax 
reductions were not greater and. 
In the next half hour, advocated 
policies which would mean in- 
creased expenditures. Criticism 
that expenditures should be re- 
duced was seldom followed up by 
direct reference as to just where 
and when it would he done. One 
exception might be that directed 
at the civil service. Members 
of government and opposition. 1 
think, agree that there must be

Woodbridge, the current lead- 
ers of the North York lacrosse 
circuit, and, on recent showings, 
including a 12-8 win over Com- 
bines ' last week at home, now 
installed as favorites for the 
group, will be in Aurora on Fri- 
day evening and unless we miss 
our guess, one of the biggest 
crowds of the year will be on 
hand. A lay-off of two weeks 
of the big boys at Aurora has 
produced numerous inquiries as 
to games and it's time some of 
the folks up Newmarket and 
Bradford way were taking in 
these classics. The lacrosse be- 
ing played is mighty good and 
there's never a dull moment. 

Bill Cox, sensational young 
netminder of the Woodbridge 
team, made the headlines last 
week and the record books, too, 
for he scored a goal against 
Gordy Smith of Combines. Cox 
ran out of his goal and whipped 
a long pass up the floor to his 
homes, which missed its mark, 
but took a dirty hop and flipped 
into the opposing goal to flash 
the red light. That comes under 
the "man bites dog" class. 

Orchids to Aarora kids, who 
made their debut before a hand- 
ful of fans last Friday and beat 
Maple midgets 5-2. The Aurora 
youngsters looked mighty smart 

in their new sweaters and des- 
pite the fact they only had eight 
men and were playing their first 
game, they had an edge all the 
way. , - 

Bill Patrick looked just as 
good as his dad did when he was 
breaking into the game, whipping 
home three smart goals with 
opponents draped on his should- 
ers. The rest of the youngsters 
were as good as the best of their 
opponents, who included two 
boys with intermediate experi- 
ence, Jimmy Jones and bespec- 
tacled Ken White. Maple had 
previously beaten Woodbridge 
and tied Richmond Hill. Com- 
bines midgets in their first 



appearance doubled the score on 
the Hill kids. That win should 
do a lot to boost the game local- 
ly and the kids deserve some 
support from the Aurora fans. 
They won't win them all of 
course, but they can be depend- 
ed upon to produce some stir- 
ring, real honest-to*goodness 
thrills before the season's over. 
Watch for the schedule. 

Al Orr, the gaUoping ghost of 
the Maple defence end, in our 
opinion, one of the top perform- 
ers In the circuit, won himself 
a trip to New York in Junior 
Farmer competition recently. 
The Orr family is really promin- 
ent In youthful-- agricultural 
circles. - Gordy Orr, a brother, 
who also plays a nice brand of 
lacrosse, is a past president of 
the York County Junior Farm- 
ers and Orphie Orr, a sister, v is 
one of the best known femme- 
members of the young farmers' 
group. They had the misfortune 
of seeing the family barn burn 
down a few weeks ago. 

While on the subject, lacrosse 
seems to be one game farm 
youngsters can take to without 
their urban cousins having an 
advantage ab initio and about a 
good 65 percent of the boys 
playing in the North York 
league are dirt farmers. ' . 

By the way, Charlie Rowntrce, 

president of the lacrosse league 
and no stranger to these parts, 
and his brother, Russell Rown- 
tree, who masterminds Wood- 
bridge, have hit upon a jackpot 
idea which looks like returning 
some nice bundles of happy 
cabbage for hard work. The 
Rowntrce boys have a new- 
fangled aromatic haybaler, one 
of four of its kind in Ontario, 
which cost in four figures but 
really does a swell job and with 
factory capacity too. Better get 
those orders in fast folks, for the 
duo are going day and night, too, 
if necessary to keep pace with 



THE NEWMARKET ER^ AND 




to two better lads either, i 

HnntsvlUo phoned last week 
and have booked Combines to 
appear in feature wind-up to 
their big Lions carnival on 
civic holiday- They'll play a re- 
turn game here and Rlldlftnd 
and the 'Bines are still negotiat- 
ing for a series. It's settled all 
but the dates. 

Civic Holiday, August 5, & 
the day Mount Albert Canadian' 
I/Cgion have booked for their 
first annual field day. A high 
class program of Softball, horse- 
shoes, tug-of»war and other fea- 
tures have been booked and if 
you hear a swish and see a cloud 
of dust, it's not Superman in ac- 
tion but our old palsy- walsy How- 
ard Morton, in action. "Mort" is 
the convenor of the day and he's 
figuring on around 5,000 folks 
coming to the Mount for the 
occasion. Could be too. Mean- 
time book the fifth as a surefire 
date. . 

Wedding bells In recent weeks 
have chimed or tolled (call it 
which you like), for some weU- 
known athletes. Wea NU^s, ye 
olde softball hurler and holder of 
the M.C. too, middle-aisled it 
with Miss Irene Parks of New- 
market Bruce Wark, husky de- 
fence player of Combines, 
sniffed orange blossoms with 
Miss Florence Hobday, Richvale, 
sister of Jack Hobday, another 

lacrosse stalwart. The couple 
didn't worry about the 13th as a 
jinx and "Mrs," has given the 

green light for more lacrosse. 
Bob Hillls, Aurora softballer, 
pulled a swifty on his Aurora 
pals by tying the knot quietly 
last Saturday with Miss Bertha 
MacMain, Toronto, former 
Aurora gal. We forgot to ex- 
tend best wishes earlier to the 
former Moss Doane, Newmarket, 
one of the district's best girl 
softballers, who became Mrs. 
Dan Kenny on June 28, and 
hasten to do so now. There's 
plenty more • knot-tying events 
booked for the next few weeks 
too.

came down from the north to 
play hockey for Aurora in 
those never-to-be-forgotten years 
when Aurora was matching wits 
with Newmarket on the hockey 
ice lanes, unsuccessfully, we 
must admit (stop chuckling 
Smith). Clark was a mighty 
fine performer although a bit 
inclined to loaf and could have 
gone a piece in the. winter sport 
if he had so decided. Well, 
Clark is in his hometown, Smooth 
Rock Falls, employed as account- 
ant in a paper mill, married 
with two fine youngsters ■ and 
hasn't played hockey for several 
years. j ( 

Ross Tunbrldge, who captained 
Aurora junior hockey team for 
two years in the 40's and then 
enlisted and served overseas, 
after coming of age, is taking!^ 
pre-university course at rehab 
school in Toronto and . hopes to 
enter Toronto varsity in the fajl, 

Ross was a good pro prospect 
when he enlisted, but has no 
illusions along those lines now 
and while he may turn out for 
the Varsity Blues, it's text books 
preferred. 

John Stuart, who so far haH ( 
spent most of his hobby time 
with the gee-gees, although he 
did back Young Leafs in juvenile 
hockey two years ago, is one of 
the angels of Oakwood Indians 
in the O.R.F.U. and the tribes- 
men who have been orphans of 
the storm for several years are 
blossoming out like Cinderella 
following the glass slipper epU 
sode. 

Andy Davis, yes, Andy of 
Newmarket Rcdmen fame, is 
another one of the "honorary" 
members of the club' and Andy 
likes a winner, as you all know. 
Denton Masscy is another. The 
Indians, with financial worries 
over, should really be able to go 
to town this season. . Jimmy 
Cummtngs, former Aurora jun- 
ior hockeyist who has returned 
from Ottawa Trojans and Was 
bound for Indians again, is said 
to have signed on the dotted for 
Toronto Argos and if so, he'll 
really get a chance to show his 
true worth. 

Speaking of Argos, Major Ger- 
ry Goodman, Aurora, former 
sports officer at Camp Borden, 
is readying a lallapalooza, de 
luxe program for tho double 
blue, which will hove your pyes 
popping' when it hits Ihe streets 
in a few weeks. 
, Norm Helso (and A. P. Helse, 
too) was oil smiles last week. 
Wllllcglvlt, the Heise filly who 
showed such promise last- year 
and hasn't hit the finish in front 
all year, despite three or four 
second-best efforts, finally cap- 
tured a feature three-year-old 
race at Fort Eric against a field 
that included all the smart ones 
except Kingarvie and Blue- 
sweep. Didn't pay too much 
but it was n nice omen for the 
fall and fast time too. 

Headed for the baseball school 
in August conducted by the 
Toronto Leafs ore a quartet of 
youthful Newmarket baseballers 
who should get more than a 
passing look-sec if they aren't 
too jittery. Ken Broughton, 
burly pitching prospect, Jim 
Kutledge and Red ,PaInuiteer, 
the Infield flashes, and Tommy 
Dales, who can play any place 
but behind the bat equally well, 
make up the foursome and Man- 
ager Georgo Hoskett won't have 
to be ashamed of his representa- 
tives. - , '

1 (Continued from Page 3) 
according to Leonard Simmons of 
Aurora. Len doesn't figure 
Aurora is ripe for the idea as yet, 
with which we heartily agree, 
but Stouffville, with fellows like 
EsrI Cook, former Toronto Leafs 
hurler, Dinty Hodgins, Ken 
Laushaway, Reg Button, Ross 
Wideman and others, .who form- 
erly played intermediate, plus 
the better junior players avail- 
able, want to move up and New- 
market is definitely interested, 
too, with some of the stars of 
yesteryear ready to stage a 
comeback and bolster the present 

Junior team. 

Richmond Hill will probably 
fall in line. Uxbridge, Port 
Perry and several teams over in 
Ontario county are said to be 
ready to go again also. '■ With a 
two-group cjreuit already com- 
posing the tri-county circuit, it 
might \<*ell blossom out into a 
pretty compact* four-group 
league, pretentious enough, with 
the winner going into the O.B.A. 
B series away down in the semi- 
finals. . 

It's quite a jump from kid 
baseball to the older series and 
a good many of the boys could 
stand another year at least in 
lower company. Unless the pres- 
ent minor series, say midget or 
bantam, is continued, the same 
fate that overtook baseball in 

the past in these parts is sure to 
follow. 

Each intermediate club should 
be made to sponsor a minor club 
to assure the continuance of the 
game. There's no doubt about it 
that the scarcity of playing 
fields, the cost of equipment and 
the lack of persqnnel for leader- 
ship, under present conditions at 
least, make two teams for league 
competition the maximum 
amount that can be* accommo- 
dated in the district towns. 

A hand for the "Lemon ville 
Farmer" who gave the fans a 
treat last week as he pitched for 
Stouffville intermediates* against 
Newmarket juniors. Earl Cook 
didn't work too hard, Newmar- 
ket leading 3-1 at one stage, but 
when the chips were down he 
displayed his stuff, striking out 
the last seven batters to face 
him. It was his first mound 
effort in close to two years, too. 
After the game was over, he 
quietly took Lefty Gibson, Tom- 
my Dales and Ken Broughton. 
aside and proceeded to show 
them the fine points of mound 
work, particularly the footwork, 
and what to do with men on bas- 
es. 

Ike Harper of Markham-Bal- 
lantrae hockey farne, coach of 
Stouffville's. junior C hockey 
team, handled the catching duties 
for Co6k the last four innings 
and turned in a good show. 

George Haskett finally got 
into action this year with his 
pets. Journeying to Beeton on 
Saturday with only nine players, 
"ivir. Frisch" had to leave the 
bench when Larry Cotton suffer- 
ed a leg injury, and from press 
dispatches he did O.K. Nothing 
like having the coach show you 
how it should be done. New- 
market took the Beeton kids 
apart, winning 14-5, with plenty 
to spare. Rain washed out the 
return game with Stouffville in- 
termediates last Friday but the 
Newmarket juniors are keen to 
get their chance at Cookie again 
before the season ends. 

North York play-offs arc at 
hand. On Monday it was 
announced that Stouffville and 
Newmarket would meet in a 
two-game scries, with Aurora 
drawing Millikcn. Oddly enough, 
both brackets find the two op- 
ponents each defeating the other 
team at home. The midgot 
schedule won't get underway 
until next week, with the big 
game lo decide first place be- 
tween the Hill and Aurora 
washed out on Monday. The 
Hill, Aurora, Stouffville and 
Markham have qualified for the 
playdowns. 

The series, while it will decide 
in both cases the league champ- 
ionship, will not decide who will 
be the O.B.A. standard-bearers. 
From the Yongc group, by mut- 
ual agreement a*t the start of the 
season, Newmarket will go into 
the O.B.A. junior play-offs and 
Aurora v/ill go into the midget 
play-offs regardless of the ulti- 
mate outcome.. 

At the same time, from .the 
eastern section of the group, 
Stouffville and Mil I Ik en will 
send in teams to the O.B.A. 
play-downs. It's supposed to be 
Stouffville in junior and Milli- 
kcn in midget, but It's not all 
clear yet and may be ultimately 
reversed with Millikcn taking 
on the junior role. 

The four teams will be allowed 
to get reinforcements for their 
teams and v/ill likely meet each 
other in the first round. With 
Winger, the good catcher of the 
Newmarket team, said to be 
heading west, George Haskett 
v/ill likely seek the services of 
Loring Doollttie. There's no 
secret either that Haskett figures 
Don Little of the Hill, along 
with Herb Rose and Gar Doo- 
llttie of the Aurora club would- 
n't hurt his team's chances in the 
least* i 

By the same token, Mac Cle- 
ment, the sturdy Hill catcher, 
would look pretty good behind 
the plate for Aurora midgets, 
allowing Jim McDonald a hard 
hitter to take on outfield spot. 
Jack Atkinson, Sylvia Stcffan 
and Norm Stundcn from the Hill 
and Laurie Thorns from New- 
market wouldn't v/caken the

Simmons stars either. 

Stouffville and Milliken can 
bolster their weak spots with 
players from other clubs, too. 
In fact, the drawing of players 
from other clubs will benefit the 
eastern section clubs more than 
it will Aurora and Newmarket, 
who could, stand pat on their 
present line-ups if they weren't 
thinking of a round or two away. 
The two sets of series promise 
to provide plenty of fuel for the 
controversial . stove, which will 
soon be boiling over as the play- 
off trail hoves in sight. 

Herb Hoi man was ready last 
week to enter Aurora softballers 
in the O.A.S.A. C play-offs but 
whether or not it will be 
allowed is not as yet known. It 
seems now that George Kelson 
pf Thornhill entered the league 
as a group in the Ontario Assoc- 
iation and if so there'll only be 
a C and B representative, New- 
market automatically taking B 
by virtue of population and the 
C series to be decided on its 
merits. The Aurora boys arc 
still seeking entry and with one 
or two players added might 
make a fair show of things. 

Red Laking, who in prc;war 
days was the top ranking out- 
fielder of the York-Simcoe 
league, finished the season in 
fourth spot in the Centre Simcoe 
batting averages with a mark of 
.418, leading the league in hits 
and runs. Hasn't lost much of 
his Old class either. 

Steve Illnes, another veteran 
performer who is no stranger in 
these parts, was in the third slot 
just above him with .429. That's 
hitting in any man's league and 
Steve rolls on like Old Man 
River. 

Wes Perry, former hurlcr lor 
Queen's Tforks in the Aurora 
town league, another veteran 
performer, had the best pitching 
average for the league-leading 
Orphans with four runs and one 
loss and an average of 7.2 hits 
per nine-inning game. 

Morley Schandlcn, Midhurst, 
another veteran from away back, 
was in second place with 4-2 In 
games and the second best aver- 
age In hits. Nice going boys. 

Richmond Hill is starting to 
play girls* Softball, too late for 
the regular league now in action, 
but they'll be available for some 
exhibition games soon. Quito a 
bit of interest being shown under 
the auspices of the village Youth 
Council. 

MarJ McCarnan got a big thrill 
out of performing against the 
World Champions Jax team from 
New Orleans at Maple Leaf 
stadium this week. The New- 
market girl made a nice showing 
too. Right now she's hitting he* 
regular stride at Sunnyside. 

Schomberg fans arc having 
quite an argument. as to the res- 
pective merits of Elgin Hastings' 
Red Shirts and Cliff Graham's 
Blue Shirts, who arc the finalists 
in the South Simcoe girls' soft- 
ball loop. The Reds had the best 
record over the season but 
there's no telling what can hap- 
pen. Not bad for a place the 
size of the "Berg" having two 
clubs. United they could hold 
their own with cither Aurora or 
Newmarket. 

Aurora trounced the Blues 
earlier in. the year but divided 
it's a different story., Makes for 
plenty of excitement though. Bill 
Breedon's men's club is travel- 
ling at a nice clip too and have 
reached the finals in the men's 
section. The second series of 
the North Yongc league is due to 
start soon, and this is the half 
where Aurora has to go to town. 
There is no schedule out yet, but 
It'll be announced soon,

NURSERY RHYMES 





K'% 





By GOLDEN GLOW 

As perhaps you all know by 
now, this is one of my favorite 
topics — n ursery rhymes, and 
trying to see just how they came 
to be written. The particular 
one I have in mind this time is 
called: 

My Nut Tree 
I had a little nut tree, 

Nothing would it bear 
But a silver nutmeg 

And a golden pear. « 

The king of Spain's daughter ' 

Came to visit me . 
And all for the sake 

Of my little nut tree 
I skipped over water, 

I danced over sea 
And all the birds in the air - 

Couldn't catch me. 

I have always felt that Mother 
Goose, to whom are attributed so 
many of our good old nursery 
rhymes, was simply a house 
mother inventing rhymes to 
amuse and entertain her children 
as she worked round her kitchen 
or elsewhere, and it was some- 
thing distinctly connected with 
her work that inspired the cer- 
tain rhyme of the minute. 

For instance, Humpty-Dumpty 
was in all probability composed 
as the children sat at the break- 
fast table eating a morning egg, 
and to stretch our imagination 
farther, perhaps an egg fell and 
was broken before it could be 
dropped in the saucepan to cook. 

Or the one about Simple Si- 
mon fishing in his mother's pail 
— maybe his dad had gone fish- 
ing and he wanted to go along 
but had to stay and do his fish- 
ing at home! Pat a cake, pat a 
cake, baker's man, was likely 
composed for a baby while the 
mother was making hot biscuits 
or cookies. Old Mother Hub- 
bard, who couldn't find a bone 
for her dog and so on. and on! 

* 

Well, this one I have in mind 
today recalls the scarcity of 
spice all during wartime, and 
the synthetic substitutes we 
wore offered in their place. The 
old rhyme, "What are little girls 
made of? 

everything nice — that's what 
little girls are made of." 

Yes, "spice", what a world of 
goodies that one small word 
can conjure up! Christmas 
cake, mince pie, pickles, chili 
sauce and heaps of other delec- 
table things to eat. 

In King Solomon's day, when 
the Queen of Slieba came to visit 
him, nearly 3,000 years ago, 
spices were rated with silver 
and gold in tributes paid to the 
king. But spices do not stop 
with Soloman, they have played 
an important part in internation- 
al trade ever since. 

Spices even played an import- 
ant part in the discovery of 
America, for Christopher Colum- 
bus was looking for the spice 
islands, the East Indies, when he 
found the Bahamas. The little 
rhyme mentions nutmeg — it is 
! one of the aromatic spices which 
include cinnamon and allspice and 
cloves. The pungent ones are 
those that bite your tongue, you 
learn about them in botany class 
at high school, like pepper and 
mustard and ginger and horse- 
radish too! 

Yes. I think that was how 
many of our nursery rhymes 
came to be written — mothers 
doing their daily work in their 
kitchen and entertaining their 
children at the same time.

KENNETH PONTING 
WEDS IN OTTAWA 



A pretty wedding took place in 
.McKay United church, Ottawa, 
on Wednesday, July 3, when 
Jun e Margaret, daughter of Mr. 
and Mrs. A. Nicholls, Ottawa, 
became the bride of Kenneth 
Ponting, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. 
E. Ponting, Newmarket. Rev. A. 
I. Higgins, Ottawa, officiated and 
Mr. C. Skuce ployed the wed- 
ding music. 

The bride, given in marriage 

Sugar and spice "and »>' her father, wore a floor- 
length gown of white sheer with 
long veil which fell from a 
wreath of flowers. She carried 
a cascade bouquet of white glad- 
ioli and pink carnations. Miss 
Eileen McCann, bridesmaid, 
chose a floor-length gown of 
turquoise net and carried a col- 
onial bouquet of Talisman roses. 

Stewart Dow, cousin of the 
groom, was best man. 

The reception was held at the 
bride's home following the cere- 
mony. The bride's mother wore 
a blue dress with white accessor- 
ies and the groom's mother wore 
a grey dress with black accessor- 
ies. 

For a motor trip to New York 
City the bride chose a green silk 
jersey dress with white accessor- 
ies. 

They arc residing al 38 Millard 
Ave., Newmarket. 



By GEORGE HASKETT 

Behind the steady pitching of 
Newmarket's ace right bander, 
Ken Broughton, the local junior 
ball club humbled the league- 
leading Milliken club 14-3 at 
Pantry Park on Thursday. It 
was the second loss of the season 
for the visitors, The victory 
assured the locals of second place 
in the league standing and dem- 
onstrated that the Redmen will 
have to be reckoned with when 
the championships are being 
handed out in the North York 
Lions league. 

The Redmen led off with five 
runs in the opener, four in the 
second to make the verdict sure 
from the start. Jim "Pee Wee" 
Rutledge hammered out the first 
homer of the season when he 
poled out a 250-footer, over the 
centre field fence in the fifth 
with one mate . aboard. Ken 
Thorns smashed out two long 
doubles. BUI Johnston was on a 
batting spree with three' singles 
and a walk to his credit, while 
every man ori the club had at 
least one hit. Tommy Dales 
took over the first base chore 
and was in top form all the way. 
In all, the Redmen hammered 
the offerings of Orval Rouse hard 
throughout and had him out of 
the~ s hpx in the fourth. It was 
the first time the highly rated 
Rouse had been shelled from 
the mound in ten games. Ken 
Broughton was never in trouble 
after the first innings when Mil- 
liken opened with two runs on 
Nicholson's triple, Minton and 
Rouse's singles. The other Milli- 
ken counter came in the fourth, 
Jewett doubling followed by 
Gough's single. 



LOCAL MARKET 

Butter was 45 cents a pound 
on the local market Saturday 
morning. Eggs sold for 20 cents 
a dozen for pullets, 40 cents for 
medium and 45 cents a dozen for 
large. Chickens were 27 cents a 
pound. 

Red currants were 20 and 25 
cents a quart, red cherries and 
gooseberries, 20 cents a quart. 

TORONTO MARKET

was 40 cents a pound on the 
Toronto markets on Tuesday.

BEETON TUMBLED 14-5 
IN EXHIBITION TILT 



RECALLS OPEN VOTE 
IN GOOD OLD DAYS 



Newmarket junior ball club 
chalked up another win in an 
exhibition game at Beaton Sat- 
urday, vanquishing the newly 
formed Boeton team 14-5. 

Don Brown, starry centre- 
fielder of canaltown, deserted 
the pasture to take over the 
pitching chores for the night and 
hung up a victory in his first at- 
tempt. Backing up Brown's 
Ditching effort, his mates wal- 
loped out 12 solid hits, left- 
fielder Bob Walker coming 
through with an extra base clout 
in the third with a long triple. 

Newmarket line-up: Stan 
Winger, Don Brow n. Grant 
Blight, Red Palmateer, Jim Rut-

THE BIG ONE THAT WAS CAUGHT 






POWER GOES OFF 
- IN FRIDAY STORM 



The power went off in New- 
market around 5.30 p.m. Friday 
during a heavy rain storm. 
Angus Morrison, water and light 
superintendent for Newmarket, 
said that the cause was lightning 
splitting insulators in the vicin- 
ity, of Thornhill. The power 
was off until after;<8 p.m. 

A tree was knocked down 
across the wires on Srigley St. 
by the violence of the storm but 
the power was off at the time 
and town men had the wires re- 
paired before the main breaks 
were fixed. 




A CYNICAL NOTE 

A marriage expert says thai 
men like lo marry girls "whose 
knowledge is less than theirs." 
This undoubtedly explains why 
a lot of men are bachelors.

Mrs. Daniel Hiltz, Newmarket, 
this week. Mr. Chapman is now 
living in Minga, Manitoba, about 
175 miles south-west of Winni- 
peg. While here; Mr. Chapman 
is locating old friends and talk- 
ing over the good old days. 

Mr. Chapman remembered 
one incident from his youth in 
Newmarket which still gives 
him many a chuckle. In 1878, 
there was still open voting in 
Newmarket and Mr. Chapman 
recalls hiding in a hayloft with 
a friend watching the ballots 
being marked. According to 
Mr. Chapman, the procedure was 
for the returning officer lo mark 
the ballot as the yoter requested. 

Mr. Chapifian jdrove to New- 
market from the west with his 
grandson, by way of United 
States. They intend to return by 
driving through | northern Ont- 
ario. He said that crop pros- 
pects in his neighborhood, 
where there is mixed farming, 
are good. "There won't be a 
bumper crop," he said, "but 
there will be good crops."

Fire In Auto Causes 
Excitement On Main St; 



There. was considerable excite- 
ment on Main £t. Friday after- 
noon when a f|re broke out in 
the hood of a car- owned by Tom 
Ileiff, of the While House res- 
taurant. The fire was put out 
by Main St. citizens who 
brought fire extinguishers from 
their stores. First to the scene 
was Ernest Deavilt, a driver for 
Geer and flyers, who threw open 
the hood of the car and turned 
his fire extinguisher on the 
blaze. W. $1. [Bell and R. C. 
Morrison also brought fire ex- 
tinguishers into play. A sales- 
man for a fire extinguisher firm 
was through Newmarket last 
week and the small fire enabled 
the purchasers of his product to 
test its worth. | Newmarket fire- 
men answered the call.

Pasture Management in Fall 

PASTURE is an important crop and repays care 
during late Fall month*. Grazing shouldn't be 
overdone, experts say. Droppings should be spread 
anil harrowing is rcconimendcu. Pasture, eaten short, 
benefits from a light top dressing of manure. Fertilizer 
applied in October encourages quick Fall growth which 
holds snow and ensures earlier Spring growth. 

Pasture is the A, B, C of farming. There are other more 
difficult problematical affect the farmer's living. Your 
agricultural collegebF- experimental station can help 
you solve yours and get more from your land ... a 

service available for the askirnr. 



Tins Bank offers you the service of money. If you need 
a Farm Improvement Loan, drop in on the manager of 
our nearest branch. He has the facts and is genuinely 
anxious to assist you in every possible way.

outnumbered almost two to one, 
and 'were playing their first 
game as against Maple midgets' 
third effort, Aurora midget la- 
crosse team took a 5-2 decision 
over Maple in a rugged game at 
Aurora arena on Friday evening.

didn't get uhderway until close 
to 9 p.m. and only a handful of 
fans were on hand to see the

no admission charge. 

The Aurora youngsters were 
never headed, leading 2-1 'at the 
end of the first period, 3-2 at the 
end of the second period, and 5-2 
at the end of the third when the 



game was called by agreement. 
Charlie Southwood, who re- 
placed Jack Flicker the regular 
netminder in goal, played a fine 
game, and Bill Patrick, with- a 
trio of markers, was. the indi- 
vidual star of the night. Loring 
Doolittle and Bill Mundell were 
the other Aurora goal-getters. 
Tom Armitage. White and Jones 
were prominent for Maple.

Mrs. T. J. Spaulding, a resi- 
dent of Aurora for nearly 30 
years, died at the home of her 
daughter,' Mrs. George Dolby, 
Milton, after an illness of a 
month. 

Mrs. Spaulding, who was in 
her 83rd. year, was born Eliza- 
beth Hortop, near Uxbridgc, but 
at 'the age of two years, on the 
death of her mother, moved to 
near Aurora, in Whitchurch 
'township, with Mr. and Mrs. 
Joshua Oliver, her uncle and 
aunt, who raised her. 

She resided in the township 
for nearly 50 years, being en- 
gaged in farming with her hus-

the township for many years. 
She was an active member of 
Wesley United church. On

Thirty-five-year-old Milton 
Sherman of Aurora, C.N.R. road 
foreman, was almost instantly 
killed at Concord station when 
struck by a northbound C.N.R. 
passenger train early Sunday 
morning. 

Mr. Sherman was scheduled 
to start on his holidays on Sat- 
urday. Pending relief from his 
duties, he made his customary 
Sunday inspection of the line in 
company with Pete Letts* of 
Vandorf. The two left Aurora 
on- the jigger and it is thought 

they were going to Concord 
when No. 46 was slightly behind 
schedule, believing they could 
reach the open' switch before 
the; northbound train arrived. 
They had the small car practi- 
cally off the main line and on 
the switch when No. 46, a non- 
stop train at Concord, came 
down the line. Mr. Sherman 
was on the inside and Mr. Letts 
on the outside of the track. 
They were attempting to save 
the i jigger but the train was un- 
able to stop and they failed to 
get clear. 

Mr. Letts managed to' roll to 
the j ditch but Mr. Sherman was 
tossed in the air and landed 100 
feet away. The train was driven 
by engineer Andrew Manson 
andi the conductor was Ray Lee. 

Mr. Sherman had been an em- 
ployee of the railway for close to 
15 years. Coroner Dr. C. J. 
Devins was called to the scene 

■ 

and Ihe has announced an inquest 
for .mid-August. County Con- 
stable Aubrey Floury of Aurora 
is investigating. The- accident 
occurred around 6.30 a.m. stand- 
ard ;time. 

Born in Beeton, a member of a 
well known railway family, Mr. 
Sherman was a respected citizen 
of Aurora, leading a quiet life, 
devoted to his family and a 
member of Aurora United 
church. He is survived by his 
widow, the former Myrtle Jar- 
dine^ ■ and two daughters, Shirl- 
ey, 14, and Gloria, 7. His par- 
ents, 1 Mr. and Mrs. Lewis 
Sherman, reside here„ and he is 
also survived by the following 
brothers and sisters: Albert, Mrs. 
Raymond White (May), Mrs. 
Charles Stone (Pearl), Mary and 
Adell, all of Aurora, Carl and 
Earl of. Beeton, Ernest, Chatham, 
Mrs. I George Hodges (Louise), 
Ashtabula, Ohio, and Mrs. 
George Miller (Hilda), and 
Hazel of Toronto. 

The funeral was held at his 
late residence on Tuesday with 
Rev. Roy F. Hicks in charge. 
Pallbearers were Stewart Pat- 
rick. ' George Baldwin, Al. Mit- 
chell; Thomas Swindle, Peter 
Letts and Earl Seaton. Inter- 
ment was at Aurora cemetery. 



Aurora town council on Thurs- 
day evening awarded contracts 
amounting to $18,837.50 for 
street construction, water mains, 
and sewers. The work will be- 
gin by Aug. 1. 

The Hagcrsville Asphalt Pav- 
ing Co. was awarded the con- 
tract for building 1,250 feet of 
the Edward St. extension south 
at a price of $6,837.50. The 
street will run past the new 
Hart plant and will connect with 
Cousins Drive, yet to be provid- 
ed for as a street. 

K. M. Morrison of Toronto, will 
receive $6,575 for laying 250 feet 
of storm sewer, and a sanitary 
sewer from Gurnett and Con- 
naught St. to Cousins Drive, a 
distance of 1,750 feet. Th e ma- 
terials and sewer pipe needed 

are included in. the contract 
price. 

A. E. Hawkins of Aurora re- 
ceived the contract for new- 
water mains at a price of $5,425. 
Two thousand eight hundred 
and fifty feet will be laid easter- 
ly on Wellington St. and 1,450 
feet will be laid south from Met- 
calfe St. to Cousins Drive. 

Pipe and other materials for 
the water mains are being pur- 
chased by the municipality and 
the ultimate cost will be some- 
thing over $5,000. This brings 
the total expenditures to close to 
$24,000. 

The Gurnett St. 
now under contract 
Hawkins, .is expected 
the original figure 
$1,000, bringing the total cost to 
th e town not budgeted for in 
this year's estimates at around 
$25,000. 

The cost of laying the water 



extension, 

to A. E. 

to exceed 

by over 



mains will be borne 1 by the 
waterworks department of the 
municipality which has a hand- 
some' surplus in account al- 
though it may be necessary to 
dig into waterworks reserve 
funds now in bonds to meet the 
total cost 

As yet, council has not de- 
cided how the cost of the extra 
$15,000 or more will be borne 
since it was not included in the 
1946 estimates. It can be car- 
ried as overdraft on a pay-as- 
you-go basis and reduced from 
year to year, or it may be car- 
ried by debenture. In the latter 
case the permission of the On- 
tario municipal board would ' 
have to be secured. There is 
little doubt but that the depart- 
ment would approve, since the 

work was of an urgent charac- 
ter. 

In addition to the above worlc,. 
in view of houses being built 
and lots sold for building pur- 
poses, the extension of Wells St. 
south to Cousins Drive, and the- 
extension as a street of Cousins*. 
Drive to Edward St. are alsoV 
under consideration. Council 
has not arrived at any decision 
in the matter. Water and sewer - 
extensions would also be re- 
quired. * 

The increase in municipal as- 
sessment with new buildings ancC 
the additional taxes would go av . 
long way towards meeting the • 
costs involved of present ex- 
penditures and others that might • 
be undertaken. The properties:; 
affected would likely be sub- 
ject to local improvement rates- 
for the work done, which would 
relieve the municipality as a* 
whole of about one-third of the: 
cost involved.

an old birthday book — for the 
benefit of this generation per- 
haps I'd better explain. You 
see, you young folks, *we of a 
former generation used to have 
autograph albums, photograph 
albums, not like the modern one3 
for snapshots, but made for cab- 
inet size photos, and birthday 
books. 

We asked each other to write 
in our autograph albums and if 
one wrote some original poetry 
or painted a picture besides, we 
thought them extra clever, you 
may be sure. Also we asked 
them to write in our birthday 
books and you were supposed as 
well to put the year of your 
birth- I bet they could be used 
as a "proof of age" when all else 
failed — or could they? How 
could we be sure folks put down 
their correct birth year? 

Alt this is a sort of introduc- 
tion to a little poem I found in 
this old birthday book. By the 
way, why not head this "birthday 
books" instead of "poetry" — I 
think I will 
You see, there were all kinds 

of birthday books — some with 

quotations from Scripture, some 
from this or that author, Shake- 
speare, Charles Dickens, Sir Wal-

about certain things. For in-

"anon" so we shall never know 

who wrote it, nor who inspired 

it— worse luck! So we can put 

any name we like to it. 

A brow austere, a circumspective 

eye, 
A frequent shrug of the "os hum- 
eri", 
A nod significant, a stately gait, 
A blustering manner and a tone 

of weight, 
A smile sarcastic, an expressive 

stare- 
Adopt all these as time and place 

will bear. 
Then rest assured that those of 

little sense 
Will deem you sure a man of 
consequence. 

There you are — now isn't that 
a delightful bit of poetry for 
someone's birthday verse. That 
"os humeri" fits In so cute when 
he couldn't say shoulders and 
make it rhyme. Can't you just 
picture the whole thing? And 
I don't doubt each of us could 
put a name to the image it con- 
jures up too! 

That sounds as if I were get- 
ting too personal — and "personal 
remarks are never in good taste".

3* re are endless forms of 
ation that the recreation 
council is enterested in promot- 
ing. From time to time I have 
mentioned some of them, and 
thoy range through all interests 
and ages! So far the response 
has been from the young people 
and it has been encouraging. 

However there must be many 
adults who feel that they ■ would 
like to get together and work 
and play ' at something. The 
recreation council cannot* work 
in the dark and before any size- 
able expenditures of time, 
money, or effort, are made, we 
want to be sure that there is fair- 
ly substantial justification. So 
let's hear from you — tell us what 
you want and we'll see what can 
be done. 

The suggestion made In this 
column about swimming for 
adults was ! taken up by a few 
young people and possibly in 
time there will be a large swim- 
ming club.* It can cover all a£es 
— the swimming is done in the 
late afternoon, about 6 p.m. If 
you want to know more about it 
call Beverley Bartholomew at 

66r evenings. 

The swimming program for the 
public school age children has 
undergone some slight changes 
that most of [the children already 
know about. 1 The X, Y, G class- 
es, the A, B, C, and D. E. F, 
have all be|en compressed into 
one going each day, Tuesday, 
Wednesday, and Thursday at the 
respective hours of 8.20, 9.20, and, 
10.20 a.m., except "on Thursday 
when the X, Y, G class gives 
way to a new group that we are 
starting. 

This new class will go down on 
Thursday mornings at 8.20. 
There is no age limit on this at 
all, the only requirement being 
that you are free to take an hour 
or so off at that time. It will ap- 
ply mainly to young people of 
high school a^e, many of whom 
have already! expressed the fact 
that they are free at that time 
and would like to go down with 
us. We will 'try to improve the 
swimmers and we shall be hap- 
py to try and teach others how 
to swim. 

Lost and Found department — 
our loot from the buses after 
each swimming period is grow- 
ing rapidly. 'Already I have at 
my office, one blue bathing suit, 
one brown sweater-coat, two 

towels. 

We. have- coming to this office J 
information about various ac- 
tivities that are going on around 
the countryside. On the week- 
end of Aug. 3,1 for instance, there 
is to be a big jamboree put on 
by the Hunting and Field Arch- 
ers of Ontario', at Novar. If we 
have any keen archers in town, 
I would be glatl to give them fur- 
ther information. 

We also have here a substan- 
tial' library on many phases of 
recreation, and we can provide 
you with information about any- 
thing, or if not, we know where 
to get H. We have plans for 
home-made play apparatus, 
things that many parents might 
be interested In putting up in 
their back-yard for their ( chil- 
dren. We have a picnic book, 
which is good tor families or for 
large organizations — it is full of 
hints and ideas and would help 
you make youn picnic a success. 
Or if you. wont i to know the cor- 
rect dimensions for a horse-shoe 
pitch, a shuffle-board, a baseball 
diamond, etc., we can give it to 
you. These publications have 
been purchased in order to be of 
use to the community, so come 
and use them. ( 

There is an Institute of com- 
munity leadership being held at 
McMastcr University, Hamilton, 
Aug. 5 to Aug, 10, for group 
leaders in recreation, handicrafts, 
music, community welfare and 
club arid church activities, etc. 
There are no fees as it is spon- 
sored by the department of edu- 
cation, and the Adult Education 
Board of Ontari6; more complete 
information can be had by con- 
tacting this office. 

Haseoall. The juniors i n the 
North York league ore well into 
the finals and have a few more 
games ahead of j them yet. The 
midgets have disbanded after 
having completed their schedule. 
Much credit is due to the kids 
for staying with | a tough season, 
and much credit goes also to the 
joint coaches, Bill Haskctt and 
Mel Ruddock. Eddie Gibson 
and ( Harry Thorns were practi- 
cally on the staff too as they fol- 
lowed all the gotnes and helped 
out on most of the trips, as well 
as doing the odd bit of base- 
umpiring. Thanks go to- other 
drivers who ^contributed their 
cars and their time, Cliff Gunn, 
R. Coradonno, W^ J. Geer, H. E.

Midget Town leattie. With the 
closing of the North York league, 
most of the kids felt that they 
would like to capry on. Three 
teams were formed around a 
nucleus of the midgets. Possi- 
bly others wouldj like to get in

Playgrounds. The recreation 
council and the Lions club both 
feel that the program at the 
Lions Park may not be reaching 
many of the small children who 
live at a great distance from the 
park. To this end then, the 
recreation council will be start- 
ing two supplementary, play- 
grounds, one at St. John's school 
and one at Alexander Muir. 
These will be for children of 
pre-school age, 6. and under. 
Activities will be of the quiet 
type, group singing, games, a 
little craft work, sand boxes, etc. 
Volunteers who might be inter- 
ested in dropping around one 
hour a week and reading or tell- 
ing a story, or any other contri- 
bution, will be very welcome.

A FLAG SUGGESTION 

One of the difficulties foreseen 
it we decide to have a Maple 
I/eaf on our flag is that of choos- 
jng one from our 17 varieties of 
pioplc. Why not solve the whole 
matter by putting a sap bucket 
on the flag, the sap to do honor 
to the .taxpayer and the bucket 
to symbolize the government?
