nn EWU tre a Wednesday, March 30, 1958 4 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, PLANT CLOSING IN WHITBY The Empire Pants and Boys' Wear Company, which has been located on Brock Street North, Whitby, for the past eight years, is leaving town this week. Mr. ts at I F. H. Lumb, the factory mana- er, said yesterday that the hitby plant will be moved to the company's premises in To- ronto, consolidating the two plants. Chief reason for the move sald Mr. Lumb, is the fact that the Toronto factory has more space, covering some I1,000 square feet, compared with 3,000 square feet covered by the local plant, which employs 28 workers. Minister Extolls Principle Rotary, "Service Before Self" Extolling the well known prin-, _ ciple of Rotary, "Service Above Self," Rev. John M. Smith, min- | ister of Whitby United Church, in | an address yesterday to Whitby | Rotary Club stated that it was not | a new one, for one could find it| deep rooted in the New Testagy + ment in parables and statements | made by Jesus Christ during His| ministry on earth, in such utter-| ances as the parable of the Good Samaritan, and 'Greater love hath no man than this, that a man | lay 'down his life for his friends." | It was truly a Biblical term, the] ideal of the Christian church, and one that needs to be emphasized more today than it is, because it| should be the rule of life. It was easier to say than practice and | called for a lot of living, he said. | Rev. Mr. Smith said th at there |: were three lovels upon which man: might live -- for self gratifica- tion, law and right. Under the| first level, 8 man might exert| every effort to attain success and) these he felt he needed only for imself--for his own benefit alone. the level of law he might go as far as the law allows, and no further, so long as he could put up a respectable front in the com-| munity. But, on the level of right, | "we should be motivated by doing not only what will conform to so-| cial custom and bring us self satisfaction, but by doing right be-| cause we know it is right before the eyes of Almighty God and our | fellow men." "We should be mo-| tivated by right, desirous of doing| right, just because it is right," | the m declared. "Service| above self can be made the basis] of real fell jp and idera- | tion for others, inspiring us to do| all we can to benefit others in our church, social and business and professional life, and in our close relation with others," he added. At the commencement of his ad- dress, after being introduced by Rotarian Bill ngle, the minis- ter congratulated the Rotary Club on its anniversary. Any or- tion, he warned, which can| .going for half a century is danger of becoming so strong that its members take it for granted, and then the decline begins. He| recalled that the Rotary Club had, | like the Church and other organ-| izations, been criticized from the REV. JOHN SMITH outside by men like Sinclair Lewis and others, bringing its members to the point of realization of its real purpose of existence. There We guilty to driving 80 m.p.h., "but'you | Says Charging Battery At80 "Not only will your battery be dead," Magistrate F. S. Ebbs told a Toronto motorist who pleaded and a lot of other people will be | dead." His Worship was address-| {| ing Emil Jerunkitsch, 21, who was | nabbed by Inspector David Adair, | of the CIB, on Highway 401. Accus- | :| ed explained that he was speeding | his car to charge the dead battery. | 16th he had followed the accused's car along Highway 401 for a dis- tance of two miles before bringing him to a halt only by driving 90 m.p.h. At that time, he said, accused had claimed he was| charging a dead battery | His Worship made it an expensive | battery charge job, a $50 fine or one month in jail.

The bid, the lowest of 10 offered to the Board, was made by Vonk and Wintjes, of Toronto. At the time the Board first call- ed in architect Herbert G. Cole, of Whitby, to make the plans for | the addition, which will bring the | school up to a 12-room capacity, the Board estimated the cost. in- cluding equipment, ot $108,000. Board members now feel that with the acceptance of this tender, the final cost will fall considerably below the original estimate. Board s were ider- ably amazed to note a spread of almost $50,000 in the ten tenders offered. Tendering also on the buildin, Cullough, of Oshawa; G. E. Gould. burn, of Whitby; N.

It was a| great principle, he said, which had | added strength to the movement | and would continue to do so as| Rotary extended its membership | and influence in many lands. The| minister said that the membership figures showed that the principle of "service above self" had been| exemplified in great measure, and | this applied in a real way to the afternoon, at Mount Pleasant Cem-| Kinoven Lodge and their Club in Whitby which was doing a very fine work in the commu- nity.
