CLUB Club Takes Up Collection in Aid of the Community Welfare Committee The regular monthly meeting of the Home, and School Club was held in the Central Public School on Wednesday night with a good attendance. The president, Mrs, Frank Jackman, was in the chair and opened the meeting with Christmas carols, with Miss Leta Bragg presiding at the piano. Instead of the usual exchange of gifts which has been a feature of the December meetings in the past, a collection was taken andy subscribed to the Community Wel- fare Committee for its work am. ong the needy. Following the business session Mrs. G. F. Purdy, convener, took charge of the pro- gram which consisted of the fol. lowing numbers: Two vocal solos by Mrs. D. J, Chambers, accompanied by Mrs. E, Wood; a humorous reading by Mrs, H. Cameron; a piano solo by Mrs, E. Wood and a duet by the Misses Jean and Alice Purdy, accompan- fed by Mrs. Wood. All numbers were thoroughly enjoyed by the audience. "Happiness and Education," was the subject of an address by the Rev. J. U. Robbins which followed the program. "Happiness 1s not a gift of the gods, like some people imagine," the speaker remarked. "It is a prize to be won by diligent ef- fort. We must discard one by one the methods that seem to promise will_be received at The Times in the Cowan' s Homse=-131, tarbert Mortock much and yet are known to fail Wealth and fame may bring hap- piness but more than earthly aad temporal happiness one needs m of all spiritual happiness. If we would achieve happiness we must find it in health, work and com- radeship with God and man." These three ingredients of hap- piness, without which all else is is necessary, the speaker added. Turning 'to education the speaker asserted that this should include, the training of the body, mind and soul. Bodies were intended to be temples of the Holy Spirit and God would have us have strong, vigor. ous bodies and good care and training would make them such. A trained mind and a clean soul in such a body makes manhood and womanhood complete, he sald, In closing, Mr. Robbins stressed the fact that the highest dim must be to serve mankind, and honor God and glorify Him. A hearty vote of thanks to the speaker was moved by Mrs, G. F, Purdy. who included in the motion all who had contributed to the gram. Refreshments were then served by the convener's group and a social half hour was spent. The singing of the National Anthem brought the meeting to a close. JUNIORS PLAYED FIRST GAME OF SEASON LAST NIGHT Boys Make Good Showing in Sheriff Paxton Trophy Game -- A trip was made to the Osh- awa Arena last evening for the purpose of seeing what the local juniors are going to shape like this Order Your oe Personal Greeting Cards ow Now at KARN'S Drug Store Next P.O. Phone 378 season. After seeing them in ae. tion against Whitby after only one practice it appears that one of the best Junior teams for some time will represent the Rubber Town this winter. Two players were missing how- ever, and these two are both con. sidered star members of the team. Tom Spencer, the Aura Lee play- er, did not go on the ick because he had not yet received his certi- ficate, but by Monday when the return game with Whitby takes place he will likely be in the line. up. The other missing star was Johnnie James who has not even been out to practise as yet this season. Johnny will no doubt be able to get away shortly and then it is hoped to see him back in the nets. What proved the biggest sur- prise of the evening was the. even- ness of the team. Every man, in- cluding subs, seemed to be right into the game, without any slack- ing and this promises an all-round team for the season. There is no doubt about that game last even. ing. - Although Whitby had more supporters present than did Bow- manville, nevertheless it was gen- erally conceded that Bowmanville had the edge on the play. While some of the boys played a little better than others last evening, all turned in a good game and with any luck at all they should make the much talked of Oshawa Jun- iors step around, and right on their own ice at that.

Koc on the Gatineau River, International's Quebec power develop- ment programme was initiated five years ago. : Then, the great power resources of the Gatineau were running to waste. °* Now, the Gatineau is harnessed on this river alone, and within less than two years, International built hydro-electric plants with a total designed capacity of 562,000 horsepower. Of this capacity, generators aggregating 438,500 horsepower now are in operation and their entire output is in the service of Canadian industry. Two great storage reservoirs, with a com. bined capacity of one hundred and forty- five billion cubic feet, likewise have heen constructed by the Company, and are being operated by the Quebec Streams Commission to regulate the flow of the river, restraining otherwise destructive floods and impounding their energy for the later creation of useful power.
