AND MRS. ERNEST MEPHAM Oshawa Times Photo Married In Cobourg In 1919 Oshawa Pair Marks Anniversary A large number of friends and relatives gathered at Albert Street United Church hall to honor Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Mepham on the occa- sion of their golden wedding anniversary last Wednesday. Mrs. Ernest Mepham is the former Lauretta Harper, daugh- ter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Charles Harper of Cobourg, Ontario. : The couple had previously met at the Congregational Church in Cobourg, and was later married by the late Rev- erend Daley of that church, Mr. Mepham came to Canada from Hastings, England, and returned for overseas duty for the next three years in the First World War, On his return the couple moved to Oshawa, and have lived here for more than forty-six years.

Mr. William Charman of Toronto, boyhood friend of Z\old, Miss Fenella, Peterborough, Ottawa, and Colborne, Ontario. The Rev- Others, in eager slightly clumsy young hands, suddenly become a menace to safety. Judy Adams of the Ontario Safety League has compiled a rule-of-thumb list of things to look for and to look out for when you choose toys. The list is broken into age categories 4\partly because a toy givén to a child who is too young for. it can become an unsafe or a dull toy for that child. For a child up to two years Adams 'says toys should be too big to swallow, light in weight, washable, col- ored safely, and have rounded comers and edges. She suggests rattles, cuddly animals, 'floating toys, rocking chairs, block stacks, kiddie cars, sand toys. If you buy a cuddly stuffed toy. buy one without glass eyes or buttons which can be bitten off. Get one with trim painted on, or at least made of felt. For two- to four-year-olds, Miss Adams says a toy should encourage physical play and help train the eye and improve co-ordination. For this age group, too, toys should be light in weight, too big to swallow, and have no small removable parts. They should be non-in- flammable, safely colored, have no sharp edges and resist break- ing. ' Cheap, hard plastics will break fairly easily to produce a dangerous sharp edge. BUILD UP INITIATIVE Toy suggestions for children aged two to four include trucks and cars, blocks and simple building sets, tops and music boxes, sleighs, tricycles, riages, modelling clays, puz- zles, bathtub toys, housekeeping car- toys and dolls. ; When children are four to six years old, the toys which should interest them most would ap- Suitability Of A Child's Toy Depends On His Intelligence other age group, mobile toys should be well-balanced. They might also enjoy simple games and construction sets, blackboards, doll houses, me- |chanical trains, small sports equipment, musical toys, paper dolls and picture weaving sets. Individual and group inter- ests begin to show at about six to eight years, Miss Adams says. It is a competitive age, and the beginning of the hobby age. For this group she recom- mends avoiding toys too big or complicated, sharp-edged tools or shooting toys, and electrical toys which are not marked with an approved safety seal. Every province has electrical safety standards, and toys which meet them will show a recognized seal of approval such as the CSA (Canadian Standards Association) symbol. Toy suggestions for this age include junior carpenter tools, sports equipment, simple handi- craft equipment, skip ropes, marbles and books. The hobby age, Miss Adams says, is in full force for most children by the time they are eight to 10. She suggests avoid- ing potentially dangerous items such as air rifles, darts or bows and arrows, some tools, and motor-driven scooters or cars. Eight- to 10-year-old interests might run to photography and collecting equipment, puppet shows, model kits, table tennis, musical instruments, gym equipment, looms, costumes, croquet, printing sets and toy typewriters.

Instead she washes out her own undies and nylons. Yet Anne is enjoying every a gym tunic, according to Robin Exstwood in an article in the December issue of a na- tional magazine.
