The question period very often develops into a matching of wits with opposition question- ers seeking to elicit as much! information as possible, prefer- ably about matters that might embarrass the government. On their part, the cabinet often tries to give out as little infor- mation as possible for a variety of reasons of their own. SKILLED IN ANSWERS Labor minister Michael Starr, the member of parliament for Ontario Riding, has in his com- paratively short political experi- ence in the Commons, managed to develop the short and un- informative answer to a high degree. When he is ready and prepared to make an announce- ment, Mr. Starr can deal at length with a subject. But when he decides the time is not ripe to show the government's hand, | he is as skilled as anyone in the cabinet in divulging as little de- tail as possible. A good case in point is found in questions directed at Mr. Starr about amendments to the unemployment insurance act, which were forecast in the speech from the throne. Ques- tioned by Walter Pitman, New Students Stay In Militia "Your future with the militia is important to Canada, and it is important to you." Major W. C. Paynter, CD, sec- ond in command, Ontario Regi- ment was the speaker of these and other inspirational words in a message of encouragement to 48 graduates of the 1961 Ontario Regiment's Student Militia Training Program at the Armor- ies Friday evening. Hard on the heels of the pass- ing-out ceremony held Thursday the voung soldiers, after five weeks of army f{raining, sat down znd were served a chick en dinner by NCO's and offi- cers MILITIA IN FUTURE Major Paynter urged the youths to consider the militia as part of their future. "No other organization in the; world can supply the comrade- -- ship and feeling of common en-| deavor as the army. Sitting here| at your head table are senior! NCO's and officers who have| logged a total of 10,000 months | of service, men who are con-| tributing to their nation's wel-! fare with a feeling of pride in| the regiment and in them-| selves," the major added. In tracing the history of the regiment, the major told the boys they were pdrt of a tradi- tion that started in 1866. From small beginnings as an infantry unit through to cavalry and armored units, the Ontario Regi- ment supplied 'fighting men for! three wars". The preceding speaker, Maj. | Ww. Clarke, CD, officer com-| manding Student Militia, told the startled boys that "the fu- ture commandant of the regi- ment is sitting amongst you to- night. It has happened before. a few days before |HYPOTHETICAL QUESTION When J. W. Pickersgill took up the hunt and asked for assur- ance that legislation would be introduced before the end of the| session, Mr. Starr responded: | "When the government has| evolved a policy with respect to| this matter it will be announced| in the usual manner." "When will that be?" Liberal Lionel Chevrier "When it is decided," Mr. Starr Mr. asked replied ed: [16 it.

Mann announced today that the service to be given by the Oshawa Post Office on Civic Holiday, Monday, August 7, will be somewhat curtailed. While special deliveries will be made as usual there will be no letter carrier, par- cel post or rural mail de- liveries. All mails will be received and despatched as usual. The lock box lobby will be open from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. but wicket service will be given only between 8 a.m. and 10 a.m. No money order or savings bank business will be transacted. There will be one com- plete collection from street letter boxes at the regular Saturday afternoon collec- tion time. Hold Beer Was | In Transit A charge of unlawfully hav- ing beer was dismissed by Magistrate C. W.

Of Interest In Gladiolus | In keeping with the times, | (Eastern International Cana- |dian Gladiolus Show-time), The |Oshawa Times has received an article entitled, "Various Stages of Gladiolus Nuttery". "There is a fascination about growing glads that becomes a { hobby, then a craze. There are |five stages of interest in grow- |ing ""glads". First you just grow (them as an amateur, same as {you would any other flower. |Then as your interest in them |increases you become a "fan", |then a "bug", then a "nut", then finally a "fiend". When | you reach this stage you are | hopeless. You think of "'glads" | all day, dream of them at night, | spend every available minute of |your time in the garden, talk {of them, visit the shows, read |all the catalogs and spend all | your money on them. | "You will look lovingly at [the last flower in the fall, will |handle over your bulbs in the winter time and will hardly be able to wait till you can lovingly plant the bulbs in the spring.

His friends, co-workers and company officials honored Mr. Keeler Friday afternoon on his retirement after 35 years con- tinuous service. WATCH PRESENTED D. D. Storie, company vice- president and secretary-treas. urer presented the retiree with a gold watch on behalf of Fit- tings Ltd.,, management. Mr. Keeler's fellow employ- ees in the pattern room, where he spent all of his 35 years in Fittings, gave him a wallet containing a sum of money and a lazy boy chair. He said Friday afternoon that he intends to "take a good holi- day now and think about what to do during his retirement." One thing is for sure, however, Mr. Keeler will continue to bowl. PATTERN ROOM WORKER Mr. Keeler, who lives at 19 Nassau street, began his em- ployment with Fittings, May 25, 1926. He was placed in the pat- tern room working under the 30 Years In Pattern Room late Edward Goodman. He now boasts he is one of the few who never left the pattern room to work elsewhere in the plant. The retiree was born at Gar- den Hill, near the Vincent Mas- sey Farm, July 12, 1891. He came to Oshawa when he was eight years old and has been here most of his lifetime since. He did, however, begin his foundry career at the Bow- manville Foundry and later worked for McKinnon Industries Ltd., in St. Catharines. It was in St. Catharines that Mr. Keel- er became a pattern maker BOWLING FAVROITE SPORT Mr. Keeler's hobbies include bowling, softball and hardball. Bowling, however, is his favor- ite. He has been an ardent bowler for some 15 to 20 years and says he intends to keep bowling as long as he can. He was one of the organiz- ers of the Fittings shop league and was president of that league during the 1960 bowling season. Mr. Keeler will play with the same league again next year He has five sons, four daugh- ters, 19 grandchildren and a great-grandchild. record 6,192,000 tons, valued at Lawn Bowlers Win Two Members of both the ladies and men's sections of the Osh- awa Lawn Bowling Club are winning their share of the hon- ors in district tournaments. |During the past week two tro- phies have been added to the club's trophy shelf.
