Missionary College Marks 50th Anniversary QUEENIE FLETCHER Correspondent HARMONY -- During. the past weekend, a number of important events have taken place at the Oshawa Missionary College. Im- portant not only to the congrega- tion of the Seventh-day Adventist Churches in the community and their leaders, but vitally especially to 41 young people who stand at the threshold of life. The: graduates consecrated themselves to Jesus Christ, at an impressive service on Friday eve- ning. Marching into the well-filled aiorivny. to the strains of Goun- od's '"Marche Romaine" and wear- ing their caps and gowns, they took their places before the platform, and were addressed by Pastor D. L. Michael. It was significant, Elder Mich- sel said, that the impressive occa- sion marked 50 years of growth and endeavor since the first start was made so many years ago. He also referred to the Coronation of | doned, een Elizabeth, and of the fact | at the eyes of the world would be upon her. It was an event of great solemnity, an act of conse- cration. ZENITH OF ACHIEVEMENT To have graduated was not the zenith of achievement, for there were lofty heights to gain. The call to serve does not come at our con- venience, challenged the speaker, and the task that God has for us call for great qualities of char- acter - humility, and self - denial. In concluding, Elder Michael con- gratulated the graduates on the choices they had made, and wish- ed them God - speed wherever their paths might lead. A duet, "Father, Thy Love is Always Near", was sung by Leora Pangburn and Art. Cooper, after which Benediction was pro- nounced by R. J. Radcliffe. BACCALAUREATE SERVICE The auditorium was filled to overflowing for the impressive Baccalaureate service held for the Graduating class of the Oshawa Missionary College on Saturday morning. Seats which had been reserved for relatives and friends, were marked off with festoons of crepe paper in the class colors. Mrs. A. G. Rodgers played the March Pon- tificate by J. Lemmens as these young people, some in black gowns and caps, others, those in pre- nursing classes, in white. Mrs. W. A. Sowers sang "I Shall Not Pass Again This Way', fol- lowing which a most forcef; dress was given by Pastor W. A. 'Nelson. Many great people had lived, and still live in the present, Eld- er Nelson said. They had lived their lives to the full, giving much to their country and and at great ed MB sacrifice and self-denial. To be Ambassadors of the King, and to win the crown, were class objectives. They had this in common with everyone else, for the Crown of Life was the ul- timate reward of those who "ran the straight race and finished the course"'. However, a life of service must be given before this Crown can be won. People do not lack the strength to do these things, they lack the will, concluded Elder Nelson, as he expressed his pleas- ure at being present. Most interesting and thoroughly enjoyable was the pageant depict- ing 50 years of growth in the De- nomination's history in Oshawa. This event also was held in the auditorium, which seats well over 1,200 persons. There were few if any empty seats, at the Saturday evel even EE well done mural, in na- tural colors, had been placed across the rear of stage. At first glance, there wasn't much to see, other than a few trees and a couple f buildings. But as the story un- foided, actual scenes were enacted, and these, woven in with the story the narrator was telling, together with musical numbers appropri- ate to the sequence, held the in- terest of the large gathering. Back in 1899, when the Ontario Conference of the SDA Church was organized, a school was talked about. 1900 and 1901 passed, and still young people had to go to the States to obtain a Christian Edu- cation. A search was made for a suitable site, ana one was finally found on a small 56-acre farm, 17 miles west of Toronto at Lorne Park. Soon the accommodation at Lorne Park was outgrown. In 1912, 128 acres near Oshawa were pur- chased from Mrs. Brent. A Mr. Terwillegar gave his farm which adjoined it. Mr. Nathqn Wagar, who had up until this time been th: only Adventist in Oshawa, was delighted to learn of this course of events, and after some difficulty, located the property. There was a stone house and barn, but that was all. My. Wagar met Elder Kirkendahl "RECEIVES DEGREE Henry Stephen Polak, son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Polak, 493 | Albert Street, who has graduated | with second class honors in Art and Archaeology from the Fac- ulty of Arts at the University of prior to entering Osgood Hall to study law, he will serve as a second lieutenant instructor at Aldershot, N.S, COMING EVENTS RUMMAGE SALE-ST.

Tents were itched where President Sowers' ouse now stands, and work began on the girls' dormitory and the laundry. Prayer meetings were held in the grove behind the tents. When the school opened in the fall of 1912, the laundry had been comple! The west half served as dining-room, the other half classroom chepel. The legar house. This was Buena Vista Academy or Oshawa Missionary College in its infancy. In 1915, this Academy was taken over by the Union Conference, and was known as the Eastern Cana- dian Union Missionary Seminary. The Toronto and Hastern Company was building a railroad to act as a feeder for the Can. Northern, and there was considerable blast- ing going on. When World War No. 1 broke out, this work was aban- and the railroad was never sed. DORMITORY COMPLETED The girl's dormitory was finish. ed, and it was used as the main school building. The basement was used as the kitchen and dining room 'as it is today. The first floor had a chapel, class rooms, teach- ers rooms, music rooms, library, reception rooms and a principal's office. On the second and third floors were the dormitories. A few years later the old barn was torn down to make room for the Administration building and the new barn was built on the hill The Bresett home was built, as well as the President's home and the water-tower. In 1919 the Ad- ministration building was complet- ed, leaving the other building for a dormitory and cafeteria. In 1920 the place was named the Oshawa Missionary College. The Woodwork Shop, which has contributed so much during the years, began first as a manual training department. Sensing the need of giving students work in order that they help pay school bills, the management had an ad- dition made to the old stone hause and the shop was ned in 1924. Since 1937, until is year Mr. Wagar has been Superintendent. Expansion and rapidly growing patronage demanded increased production. In 1930 a major addi- tion was made; in 1940 the roof was raised on the rear additions and in '42 a 30 ft. extension was added. "| BOYS' DORMITORY In 1947 the boys' dormitory was built, and the following Joar the church school, and in 1952, the | m new auditorium was finished. This ern building has proved a real asset, for social gatherings and Jisloos Xorts during the winter. During past year, a new ba- Sa as been opened, with Mr. G. Striefling in charge. This bak- ery has steadily grown and is do- ing an excellelnt business, and it is hopeds that in the not too dis- tant future, a dairy with its pas- eurizing plagt in the other Rat of the building, will soon be in operation. More recent additions to the woodwork shop have been made. Also a fine large Kiln in which to season lumber was built. There are many school activi- ties carried on at OMC, which also hag the distinction of being the first Medical Corps activated in the Canadian Union Conference. A display of Tumbling, under the direction of Pres. W. A. Sowers gave evidence of P. T. courses for the young people. Greetings were brought from the City of Oshawa by his worship the Mayor, who offered congratula- tions and admiration of the exist- ing and very evident spirit of goodwill. He admonished the yo people, and especially the grad- uates, to testity Christ in their lives. Theirs was a wonderful op- portunity. He enumerated on the various physical aspects of the City, but another aspect was the building of character. There was too much stress laid on making |, the dollar, "God needs our fa- culties", asserted the Mayor, as he closed his brief message, and was warmly accorded by the aud- ience.

Appropriate readings from the Bible were followed by prayers for the Queen and the royal family In a short address to his congre- gation, Rabbi M. Norden stress- ed that both the synagogue and the Hebrew School not only want to teach the Jewish religion, history and Hebrew language, but simul- taneously endeavour to instil into the heart of the young Jewish gen- eration a deep love for the country under whose shadow they are happy to dwell to become staunch Jews and loyal citizens of Canada, at the same time and to teach them a thorough and sound combination of the Torah, the Law of Moses, with the laws of the country. The service of prayer and anksgiving ended with the sing- ing of the National Anthem in the English and Hebrew language. The royal mantle and sceptre first appeared in English corona tion ceremonial in the 12th century. The administration of justice in person was one of the functions of early English kings.

The 50th jubilee of Queen Victo- ria was on such event as attested by a venir item. brought to The Times-Gazette office today by George Redman, 234 Gliddon Ave- nue. It is an invitation from Rob- ert E.

A native of the Sussex town, Mr, Redman came to Oshawa in 1913 and worked as a carpenter until | ready his retirement. The present Coro- nation events are a source of great interest and patriotic satis- faction to him.

THE DAILY TIMES- GAZETTE | Combining The Oshawa Times and Whitby Gesette and Chronicle OSHAWA VOL. 12--No. 127 OSHAWA-WHITBY, MONDAY, JUNE 1, 1953 PAGE THREE Oshawa Seaman In Destroyer Action Mark Coronation At St. Andrew's Speaking before a capacity con- ¢ gregation at £., special Coronation ervice in Andrew's United Rev, Dr. sn Telford used the text from Proverbs 8:15, "By the kines reign, and prices decree jus- ice." What was the secret of the sense of oneness which would reach its consummation on Tuesday in the Abbey, asked Dr. Telford, when all Britons became one, and people of many races and the eyes of the Commonwealth would turn to fol- low a young woman's footsteps on her way to her crowning? The whole world would watch that day, he said, "some scornful, some envious, some adoring, many amazed, but all fascinated by the spectacle of a young woman singled out by birth for a unique role and a dedicated life." SECRET OF MONARCHY What was the secret of the Brit- ish monarchy, when the sweep of republicanism had left few kings on their thrones, Dr. Telford de- manded. It was partly the temper- ament of her people, who were not revolutionaries but slow builders, of conservative temper, and pragmatists in the art of gov- ernment. The experience of years was embodied in her laws, with avoidance of legal rigidity and a ready response to public opinion. Personal ties had something to do with it as well -- the gracious appeal of refined and high-minded personality as evidenced in the young sovereign. Right government was also due to wisdom, and in this case "the fear of the Lord is the beginning |}, of wisdom." Britain's crown was a religious symbol, the minister declared, and in a long and varied history religion had constantly ap- peared and deeply influenced the lone and all the life of the na- on. Dr. Telford showed how religion had entered the history of England --how Henry VIII had seized con- trol of the church, how Mary had tried to restore the Roman Cathol- ic Power, how the first Elizabeth had encouraged the Protestant view, how James and Charles had fought for their divine prerogative, how James TI had been deposed for his catholicism, and how fin- * |ally. Victoria, a godly woman, had influenced a whole age by her mor- al imperative. ULTIMATE FOUNDATION The ultimate foundation of a MANY HAPPY RETURNS A. J. Graves, 57 Warren Ave- nue, who is today receiving the congratulations of his host of friends on the celebration of his 84th birthday. of a throne, said the preacher, was not "expediency or wealth or power or politics, but the soundness of character based on faith, Many tall ships have sunk and many great cities been destroyed, much lood and treasure has been spill- ede because men would not learn the lesson that Wisdom is the only basis of rule." Today there was a great out- pouring of loyalty that was deep and fervent. It was our great good fortune to have a monarch, Queen Elizabeth II, who was governed by wisdom, and who knew that loy- alty to God must come first. "By me kings reign." Special music by the choir, under the direction of Kelvin .James, ATCM, included Sir Charles Stan- ford's "Te Deum Laudamus', and the magnificent Armstrong Gibbs setting of Psalm 150 for women's voices. Organ selections played by Mr. James were Handel's 'Suite for the Royal Fireworks," Purcell's "Trumpet Tune" and Elgar's march, "Pomp and Circum- stance". Have YOU Sent in YOUR Slogan Yet?
