Whitby, el. 707 A double ring wedding ceremony | Editorial Comment During the early years of the war when Britain stood alone against the overwhelming forces of Nazism and Fas- cism, the people of Canada knew that they would always be grateful to the country which stood as the "bulwark of . Our gratefulness took tangible form then and we. gave generously and vowed that we would never forget democracy" the debt that we owed. The war has been over for more than three years now and the Battle of Britain is history for our children and only But for the people of Britain the war is still a very real thing and the second battle of Britain is no less real than the first. And the need of the British people is a memory to us. | no less now than then. Their meals are meagre and MOBoImos because nearly all food is rationed. Their clothes have become shabby be- cause there are not enough coupons with which to buy new; their homes are cold because their allotment of fuel is small. Today Britain stands in greater need of Canadian assistance than at any time since the dark days of 1940. She suffers now because she gave all then, without stint or limit. The appeal of the United Emergency Fund for Britain has received only a small response from the people of Whitby. Have we so quickly forgotten our obligation? The Art Appreciation Group was entertained by Mrs. H. C, Phillips on Tuesday evening, and the life and works of Malyina Hoffman were studied. A full and complete biographical sketch was given by Miss L. Pellow, Byron Street. Her remarks are sum- marized as follows. Malvina Hoffman is the daughter of Richard Hoffman, the distiguish- ed pianist who came from England and toured the country with Jenny Lind. It was a marble bust of her father at the age of 22 that decided Miss Hoffman to turn her energies to sculpture, after studying draw- ing for six years. In the 1920's Miss Hoffman did a prodigious amount of work in sculpture and had Yeach- ed a commanding position in her profession in 1930 when the direct- ors of the Field Museum in Chi- cago undertook to create a hall of anthropology which would rouse the public interest; a Hall of Man they felt should be as crowded with vis- itors as the shake and monkey house. They wanted the race of man to look alive, seem actual, au- thentic, and not repulsive: so they decided to try sculpture as a means of revealing man to his brother. The task of creating this scul- ptural Hall of Man was Malvina Hoffman's and the project absor- bed almost five years of her life. Her expeditions for racial types took her into the crowded centres and the remote corners of the earth --into great cities, jungles and des- erts. It. involved a prodigious amount of work, but plenty of real ad- venture. When it was over and the Hall of Man was opened to the public it drew more than two mil- lion. visitors the first year. She was persuaded to write a book of her adventures. Among the most absorbing chapters are her story of her childhood, of her stu- dent years under Rodin, of her early professional struggles and achieve- ments, and the sections in which she leads the reader behind the scenes in sculpture. The illustra- tions in this book--sculptures, por- traits, travel scenes, photographic studies are of outstanding beauty. Red Wing Junior "C" Club Ready To Take The Ice Reorganized, and starting from 'scratch' this year, Whitby's Red Wings, Junior "C" hockey club is in a loop whigh is expected to in- clude Oshawa, Peterborough, Lind- say, Uxbridge and Orono, With more optimism than funds in the kitty, Manager Fra..: Mc- Cullough is praying for lots of cold weather in December so his boys can take advantage o!

Veteran hockey player Jack Lowe is coach of the team and these two men along with Dick Adams of the Red Wing, constitute the "brains" of the entry. "I hope all the boys who tried out with us last year, and more, will turn out to the first practice," said ing right away on Oshawa ice.
