Rotary Club (C'ontinued from Page One) Fifty dollars 'vas the first Mon- ey the club raised through a booth at the' fait fair lu 1924. The first carnival was held la 1926 when King St. was blocIked off for a streed fair at wvlich tie club rais- ed $850. Since then the fair has been an annal event with other attractions helpiag ta suppiemeat the income ncedcd to look after Cripplecl Chiîdren's work and other philanthropic wonk in the district. The local club took a majar part in the erection o! thegymna- siumn and swimming pool at the Boys' Training School in 1928-29- 30. It was mainly through their efforts that this useful building was erected for the use of the 'boys. Concludiag his remarks, Rotar- ian Morrison thanked president Dale for ieading the club thraugh a most successfni year. Bciore turning aven the gavel ta the incomning president, Howard Ruiocle, president Dale again thanked the club for their co-op- eration including every commit- tee chairman and a special men- tion was made of the retiring sec- retary, Bill James for bis efforts. He then presented the gavel o! "the best Rotary Club in the In- ternational" ta president Howard Ruadie. The new president congratulat- ed past president Dale on the splendid year just completed and then called on past president Forbes Heyiand *ta preseat him witb his past presideat's pin. Presideat Rundie contintied that he wanted every member of the club ta be as active as they conld this coming year. It is impera- tive that the club have sufficient money sa that when called on ta, look after cippled children, mon- ey won't enter into the picture. He then gave some of techaical details of the club and calied an Biain Elliott for a few words. One o! the important annouace- ments at the meeting came from Walter DeGeer, chairman o! the Special Events Commttee. He ire- vealed that the Sunday Moraing Class Girls' Tcamn and the Ani- zana Queens,, Wonid's Champion girls' teamn will play at the High School grounds, the night o! the Rotary Carnival, Wednesday. Ju- ly 21. He also made a report on the last Benefit Softball game showing that more than 2,200 people had paid ta sec the game.

A seven-year pin w-ont ta Arthur Hardy and six-year pin ta Bob Stevens. The only xisitor at the mieeting was Rotarian Wes Reisberry, Sh- awa. Community Council Swimming Classes Will Start Soon This summer, children and young people of this comrnnnity will enter into a long summer va- cation. Many of their free hours will be spent in water sports- sailing, canoeing, bathing and fishi ng. But what will be the sumnmer's toll? HOW many children will flot be present in the classrooms in the autnmn? How many streams, ponds and pools will assume sad hi.stofies*! In Canada only one person in ten can swim--. 0f this number, a mere decimal fraction posess any knowledge of water safety, the ability to save a life in dan- ger, or the simple nnderstanding of what ta do at tirne of emer- gency. Consequently more than 1,000 persons drown each year, many of themn needlessly, onlv 600 less than those killed in au- tomobile accidents. The Canadian Red Cross Swim- ming and Water Safety program has been in operation less than two years. By training swim- ming instructors and offering free water safety lessons, it hopes ta equl p Canadians with suffi- dcent knowledge to safeguard their aw'n lives, ta avoid needless risks and to be able in the event on dange. Y ta assist persons This summer, Bowmanvîlle is providing swimming instruction to children of school and pre- school age through the co-opera- tion of the Bowmanville Branch of the Red Cross. These 'Learn to Swim" classes will be held as part of the schedule of the Su- pervised Piaygrounds planned by the Communitv Council. Instruc- tors for these'classes wiiI be A. Witherspoon. W. Bagnell and B. Smithson. Make sure that yaur children attend these classes and learn how ta swim .sa that there will be n drowning tragedies in Bowrnanville this summer. You cannot teach a child ta care of himself unless you will let him trv to take care of him- self. He wiil make mistakes; and out of these mistakes will come bis wisdom.-H. W. Beecher. From the lowest depths there is a path to t.he loftiest height.- Carlyle. OBITUARY VVERFTT M. HARDY, PhM.B. On u Tsdmay, June 15, Everett M. Iiurîly, Phmn.B., died suddenly in WlIe-sley Hospital, Toronto. lie was uiearîy bcloved husband of Ednîa Iluvtther and dear father of lJorothy, Marion, Joan and Bet- ty anîd only and much beloved son of Mr. and Mrs. A. M. Hardy, lio w ina nvil! c. Everett attcnided Bawmanville Public and Hligh Schools and scrv- ed lus pburmacy apprenticeship wîth Jury & Loveil and Tamblyn Drug Stores. He graduated with bonons from the Ontario College of Pliarnacy ia 1923. At ane time lie was conccted with the T. Ea- tan Dnug Dept. and later became manager of a chain of drug stores befone buyiag the Meredith Drug Store at 188 Danforth Ave., in May, 1928, which business he bas carried on very successfully for the past 20 years. For the past two years he had suffercd from diabetes. On June 10 lie suffered a heart attack and was rushcd ta Wellesley Hospital whene he passcd away an June 15. He was a member of St. Da- vid's Anglican Church. Funenal service was eanducted by his rector, Rev. Breckon, at the Truli Funerai Hame on June 18. Burial was in Bowmanville Cemetery where Rev. J. E. Grif- fiof Triaity Uniited Church conducted the service. The palîbearers were close friends of deceased, Kenneth Brown, Fred Conkie, Frank Gra- ham, Basil Harpley, Louis Stuart and Edward Wabl. The floral tributes were many and beautiful and were much ap- preciated by loved ones left be- hind ta mourn bis passing. Canada's Capital Vetoes Parking Meter Bowmanviile Council was set- ting a precedent for aur count- try's capital, when they decided against the installation af park- ing meters in aur town. Parking meters in Ottawa were givea their death blow wben an overwhclming majonity o! the Ci- ty Council came out against their installation in an unofficial vote that ended la a heated four hour debate. Althaugh these meters have benefited the towns and cities in some respects, nevertheless the cost of their upkecp was con- sîdercd toa high for the local town budget. Besîdes the initial cost of $90.00 for each meter, it would mean the cmploying o! an- other policeman ta check them. Most af the municipalities that have installed meters, bave free parking lots for people forccd ta leave their cars parked for a con- sideral5e length of time. Bow- manville, untortunately, is lack- ing facilities of this kind. Consequently, aur main street wili ga unadorned for tbe present, and there will be ne worried shoppens makiag frequent trips ta their cars ta put anothen nickel in the siot for an extra few min- utes shopping.

BULLETNS FROM BI RDLAND VMIFRZ E. W H-"as No High Cost of Living In Birdland there is no high cast of living. But much bard work is often necessary, and par- ents with large families are tre- mendously busy in eariy summer. Sometimes birds must change their districts in order to, obtain sufficient naurisbment. When lemmings are scarce in the fan north, Snowy Owls came down ta civilization and subsist on rats and mice; when fish are net plen- tiful cnough in the Merganser's favorite inlaad waters, these birds visit the seas. Years that we have few bennies, Robins leave us earlien than usual for parts of the country wbeTe soft fruits con be bad. However, the food supply neyer gives out entireiy. Seed caters have little difficul- ty in findiag food. Weed seedsi are uadoubtedly taa numeraus ta suit farmers, yet these form, the stapie diet of Goldfinches and Snow Buntings, and are preferred ta aIll other seeds by Savannah, Vesper, White-crawne-d, a n d White-thnoated. Sparraws, and Juncos. Swifts and all kinds of Swallows, as they glide tbraugh the air, simply scoop up meals o! flying însects. This is the easiest mnethod o! shopping. King- birds catch similar insects, but not quite as simply. Tiny Wood Peewees do their small part ln aiding the agricuitunist by de- stroying insect pests, and their big relatives, the Great Crested Fly- catchens, carry on the same job, with a resuit prapontionate te their size. Thnushes, including Bluebirds, eat mainly insects, thougb some fruit is taken. Woodpeckcrs may nlot really have a barder time foraging for food, but they appean ta exert themseives more than mast birds. Watch a Downy hammcring on a tree trunk. It laoks as though the little neck would be worn out as the head goes backwards and for- wards with snch rapidity. But H'ummingbirds ibuzz aioag witb aa noticeable trouble, paking their long bills inta blossom. after biossom ta suck up diminutive iasects and hoaey simuitaneously. Hawks vary their fane accord- iag ta the supplies. If mice and insects are flot immediatcly avail- able, Red-shouldered Hawks may be obligcd ta hunt little birds. Waders and shore birds alight on beaches wbere they are able ta pick txp their favorite foods: frogs. snakes. and smail fish for the Great Blue Herons, insects fan plovers. The Spotted Sand- pipers know enough occasioaally te leave the shore and run aven the farmers' ploughed fields, ga- thering injurions insects. AI- though much effort is sometimps nequired for marketing, birds, need net pay. How is Mrs. Purpie Finch kaown? PASCOE PICNIC The annual famiiy picaic was beld June 19 o! the descendants of the late Edward and Mary Pascoe who came ta this country1 from. Devon, England, with aj youag family aven 100 years ago, and wbo helped pioncer Darling- ton Township suffening the priva-' tions at that time by clearng the land, cutting down the timben, logging, etc., ta dlean a few acres for wheat and potatocs for thei sustenance o! their famiiy. They helped bnild aur roads, churches and scboois w'hich were necessary in a aew country. .One hundrcd and fi!ty-scven a! these descendants gathered at Hampton Park on Saturday after- noon, June 19, for a real get-tage- ther. This ne-union bas been bcld fan 10 years and maay wcre the bearty bond clasps as maay bad not met since a year ago. The weatbcn was perfect and they go- thered together eariy. This family are real sparts and the younger set entencd heartily into a softball game while the aider ones iooked dn and told them bhow they used ta do it playing handball. A sumptuons supper was scrv- cd 'by the ladies ta which all did justice after which Frank Pascoc the president, called on the sec- retary-treasuner, Wilfrid Pascoe Jr. ta nead the minutes and fia- ancial report which showed a balance on the right side o! the ledgcr. The followiag officers wcre el- ected: President, Percy Pascoc, Whitby; secretary-treasurer, Wil- frid Pascoe Jr., Oshawa, sparts cammittee, Gordan Piersan and Dean McLaughlin, Oshawa. The oldest gentleman present was John Pascoe and the oldest lady was Mns. Richard Pascae and the yaungest child being daugh- ter o! Mn. and Mrs. Dean Mc- Laughlin. Largcst family tied with Frank Pascae and Douglas McLaughlin. Those caming the longest distance wene Miss Ada Pascoe and Mrs. Bruce Baker of Toronto. Races wene indulged Ia by the cbildnen and yauag men and girls and the aIder men la the time race, and a peanut scnamble for the eildren. After the races a neal game of football w'as participated in and many were the stif! joints and strained muscles tbe next day. Good-bves were said and tbe third Saturday o! June, 1949, was set for the next picnic.
