JO'S JOURNAL BY JO ALDWINCKLE Women's Editor of The Times I've always held a secret admiration for those well- organized, methodical types who have everything done ahead of time and are never caught off-balance. You know the kind. They have their snow-tires on in October and their summer holidays planned in' February. They have their Christmas cards addressed by the end of November in- cluding color snapshots they took the Christmas before. I've always admired such foresight and wondered why I hadn't remembered to do the same thirfg. This year it will be different. I shall have beautiful snow scenes of my own to send with season's greetings. I took them on Easter Saturday! By four o'clock in the afternoon when a pale sun broke through every tree was Jaden with snow blossoms and the birds tuned their merry throats thinking, no doubt that June had burst out all over. The snow lodged like spoonfuls of meringue on some withered chrysanthemum stalks, giving the effect of exotic, desert flowers. Ah, my systematic friends, wait till Christ- mas, Later, on that white-robed, silent scene, the moon, just past the full, rose red-gold out of the lake; brooded awhile on the world that is trying to hit it, then sailed high into the heavens, radiating a silvery smile that sequined the snow and sent a shimmering path across the water, Dodging The Issue One thing that puzzles me about civic committees and august bodies is their apprehensions about creating a prece- dent. No doubt they are so close to the business in hand and so concerned about making the right decisions that their viewpoint becomes narrow and concentrated and the wide horizon is lost to them. All life is change and fortunately for us all laws made by man can be altered to meet changing times and even * revoked if they no longer apply. Why then the reluctance to try something new? If it doesn't work, discard it, but at least try it out first. To be more specific, there was a debate in City Council recently about flying flags other than the Canadian Flag and the Union Jack to commemorate special occasions, I have seen The Mall in London, the broad avenue leading from Buckingham Palace to the Admiralty Arch, decorated with flags of a foreign nation as a compliment to its king or president who was a visitor in the capital. So what would be wrong with Oshawa having a third flagpole at City Hall for special occasion flags, not for visit- ing dignitaries but in respect to the heroes of some of our fellow, tax-paying citizens. On ordinary days, we could fly the Ontario Provincial flag, wherever it becomes official and I'm not suggesting that all this flag-raising should be ac- companied by a lot of civic ceremony. No fuss, just the privilege and the opportunity it would afford to teach our ; children a little history. Polishing The Issue Further to this, there has been something of a stir about re-naming a street to commemorate Poland's Millenium. Next year Poland will observe and celebrate the 1000th anni- versary of its adoption of Christianity and Polish people and these of Polish descent all over the world are planning proj- jects in conjunction with the event Oshawa's Polish community requested City Council to re- name a street in recognition of the historic year and has met a refusal, Let's consider this further. Many capital cities have changed street names and squares and avenues, Paris in particular. In Ontario, the town of Berlin changed its name, in a fervour of patriotism, and is now the City of Kitchener. In Oshawa, several street names were changed not so long ago including Louisa street re-named Adelaide avenue. So changing a street name is nothing new. Is it the old bugbear of creating a precedent, cropping up again? I think there should be a valid reason for any change, but if there is, and in this case I think there is, we should not dismiss it because it might "start something'. Just suppose Olive avenue were changed to Poland avenue, What would happen? Some mail might go astray; four thousand Oshawa Poles would explode with happiness and for the rest of us there would be no more trouble than we had with Louisa and Adelaide. Who or what was Olive anyway? Hearts On Their Hats Just before Easter I made a request on behalf of the Mental Health Association for hats for members of the White Cross Centre and the Ontario Hospital. I think you should know wat happened. In a letter of thanks from Miss Bery!] Bassingthwaighte, the executive director, she says: "We were more than delighted with the response. Women were dropping in at all times bring hats, gloves and scarves and it gave us an opportunity to show them the centre and see what was being done. All our girls who are still under the Hospital even though boarding out, were outfitted for Easter. It was quite an exciting time. We sent a load of hats and purses over to the hospital and the rest are to be taken by volunteers as they go to visit." The thanks belong to all of you who gave. Perhaps you gave more than you'll ever know. Normally spring brings thoughts of new clothes and the word "fashion" crops up constantly. It's going around town this week but for a different reason. It's the title of Oshawa Little Theatre's final production for this season, opening next Tuesday. "Fashion" is a social comedy of the 1840's and pokes gentle fun at the polite society and social climbers of the day. It was written by Anna Cora Mowatt (1819 - 1870), an American author and actress and ranks as the best if not the first of early satirical treatments of American life. Mrs. Mowatt who had been giving readings, was so encouraged by the play's reception that she herself became an actress. She went on to form her own company with E. L. Daven- port as her leading man, performing in London in 1848 - 1850. In 1854 she retired to private life with her second husband and died in London in 1870. She had published her autobio- graphy, plays, novels, short stories and magazine articles of which 'Fashion' has survived in more than name. Harry Chapman is directing a capable cast and rumour has it that the set will delight the eye. Every effort has been made to provide authentic hair-styles and "mutton- chop" side-whiskers and costumes of the day when gentle- men wore frock coats and fancy waistcoasts and the ladies, decollete, ankle-length gowns.
