Last week, a group of parents took over the one-room Nelson school for their al of 17 children, whom they refuse: to allow to travel to the new Glenwood consolidated school. Mrs. William Leslie, who claims she is willing to carry out her duties without cost if the board refuses to pay her salary, was established as teacher by the parents, who also named Wilfred Watson, Clark Pegg and Herbert Alton to act as trustees for No. 5, the school section in question. W. E: Breckon, chairman of the school board, hopes to have the situation in hand shortly. In the meantime, the 17 students have settled down to work in earnest.

From now on, municipal legis- lators decreed, all garbage must be wrapped and placed in the proper covered containers. "These wash tubs don't clean up the garbage one darn bit," one councillor muttered darkly. "And the tubs don't help the appear- ance of the streets. Only group to endorse the practice is the town's canine population!" SAILS DISAPPEAR The outer revetment wall at Burlington beach appears strang- ely bare this week, following re- moval of the fleet of sailing craft usually moored there. Sail- ors took advantage of the La- bour Day week-end to move most or the craft to new moorings at Indian Point, Bronte and Royal Hamilton Yacht Club, while the remainder sailed away last week end. Reason for the mass deser tion was the dredging project which got under way this week. TOP TOOTLERS Georgetown Citizens' Band last week thrilled C.NJE. audiences as it carried off top honors in the band contest. Individual members also distinguished themselves by winning gold med- als, Victor Carter emerging as best cornetist and Fred Leece 'winning the euphonium award.

" TORONTO RE 8633-6343 There was a and folks had a lot more fun, back in the days when the Can- adian National Exhibition placed prime emphasis on agricultural exhibits and competitions. This, at any rate, is the considered opinion of Herbert W. Albert who, while rarmmg In this . attended ars first C.N.E. show 70 years ago. A Halfon farmer all his life, Mr. Albertson has retired to live in quiet west mrindale. He's still spry as a cricket despite his 86 years, however, he never misses his annual trip to the Bx, even though he hasn't been too happy about the program trend during the past two or three decades. Last week, he enjoyed his 71st stroll through the big fair. He was impressed by the armed forces display, he found the mo- tor show fascinating, and his eyes lighted up as he watched huge crowds jostling through the neon- lighted midway. "But there are no binders, threshing machines, combines, or other farm imple- ments that a man expects to find at a so-called agricultural exhibi- tion," he complained wistfully. Mr. Albertson, who joined the crowd watching the ceremony y when the Marquis of Lorne open- ed the first exhibition 71 years ago, recalled that the - green lawns used to be covered with we want everyone to attend the 11 olclock service. In this way the. fellowship® of the congrega- tion will be shared by everyone." The children would go directly into Sunday school that morning, instead of leaving the church part way through the service, he explained. "In that way there would be room for everyone." The first Anglican- congregation was established in Oakville in 1840, when a minister from what is now Burlington came to con- duct services in a school house on the east bank of the 16 Mile Creek. Later the Methodists dis- posed of their church to the An- glicans, and the first St. Jude's was established on the site where the Bank of Montreal now stands. In 1883 the present St. Jude's was built, with the Parish Hall added in 1922.

Thumbing through the catalogue he hunted all over the place and couldn't find enough machinery to operate a truck garden. Mr. and Mrs. Albertson, who mark their diamond wedding an- niversary this year, have missed attending the Ex only once. That was back in 1937, when they took a trip out . west. But they both feel that the C.N.E. was a better show in the early strug- gling days, before the extrava- ganza type of exposition became the vogue. "I liked it better when we came In a democrat behind a smart team," Mr. Albertson de- clared.

Newly developed deter- gents, he declared, are not re- quired in such quantities as or- dinary soap. Use of smaller quantities therefore save money on both cleanser bills and disposal plant operation costs. At any rate, the engineer defin- itely feels that radio announcers don't exaggerate too much when they voice their flowery claims about modern suds concoctions. St. Judes' Campaign (Continued from Page 1) for such a program to be approv- ed by the church," he explained: "The church's regular finances are in good shape, but such a large project could not be financed out of current donations." Eyre Davis, Rector's warden, felt that" all newcomers, as well as older residents would be fav- orably impressed with the neces- sity for the drive. "Many of us have never had a share in build ing a church, or maintaining a church. This will be our oppor- tunity to take our part in the work for the church." W. H. Edwards, head of the publicity committee stated that plans were set-up to advise every Anglican in the parish of the drive. "In the world of today we be- lieve that everyone recognizes that Christianity is the strongest bulwark against the attacks of the Communists. For this reason we feel that everyone will be eager to pull their weight in this enlargement program in St. Jud- e's Parish to the limit of their ability." He stressed the feeling that no better day could have been chosen for the opening of the drive than Thanksgiving Sunday. "We've arranged to have a very special service this day.
