BOWMANVILLE, ONT., THURSDAY, JULY Srd, 1947 6c PER COPYMBR2 LIONiS CARNIVAL FRIDAY- PARADE 7 O'LC Mel Dale Instailed President Dowmanvill ItotaryClub Advocates. Strong Program Foflowing his very able valedic- tory address after a year of fine leadership, President Forbes Hey- land turned over the gavel to President Elect Mel Dale at Fni- day's lu.icheon of the Rotary Club ln thé Balmnoral Hotel. The oc- casion was one in which no fcimal speaker was bot ked but members were privileged to enjoy a brief but sparkling address by a guest of the day Col. Adna G. Clark, a Rotarian from Honolulu, who is on a motor tour through these parts wlth Mrs. Clark whose an- cestors lived at Enniskillen. Guest from Hawaii Col. Clark who bas spent a life- time in the U.S.A. Army and the past 27 years in Hawaii wîtb tbe artlllery, brougbt greetings frorr the ÉIonolulu Club and an invita- tien te return the visit any time and often. He touched on some of the amazing bigblights cf the Jap aeriai onslaugbt, Dec. 7, 1941, and told of measures taken for relief by reserve units and Boy Scouts. In a brief review cf the histery cf the islands, itheir re- sources and population be said the perennial ambition cf this loyal outpest was te become the 49th state cf the union. A booster for bis adopted hab- Itat Col. Clark said that the cli- mate was unsurpassed, ranging from 54 to 86 throughout the year. Noting a manifest desire among seme of bis listeners to bear about Hula girls, he said many of' the stonies told were somewhat ex- aggerated but on the average tbey wouid be found ample and quite sophisticated. His talk was al tee bief according to the applause he inspired. It is hopea be wili accept the invitation extended by President Forbes to return again and teil some more about this paradise cf the Pacific. Presideut's Farewell In his review cf the year's events, President Forbes thanked the exeçutive, the cemmittee chairmnen and ail the members for the splendid co-operatien h. aTe- ceived at ahl times. Panticular reference was made te the good werk done.jmong cippled child- ren with 4Waving received facil- lties provided by the club. Other investments in child welf are in- cluded minor eperations. But the chief contribution was'the county sunvey soon to be completed to discover ahl possible cases cf crippîrd chldren. In youth service work t" e club ý_,_has continued te supportA base- bail team, the basketbail league and aise juvenile hockey by niaintaining Rotary Rink. There was aiso satisfaction in having sponsored the recent track and field meet and the hèlp accorded in supporting the carnival*held ln Memoial Park. The youth service committee was accorded high praise fer continuing these projects. Communlty Service Community service included as- sistance in the drive for hospital funds te wbicb the Rotary Club contributed $2,000. Rotary Anns aise received commendation for their welcome home party in henor cf overseas brides. Finally the recent organization cf Rotary Choir was a popular conception whlch it was hoped would survive and expand. In the sphere of Rotary it was a matter of pride that the Bow- manville Club topped the district in attendance records. The retir- ing President suggested that there was something more than mere attendance for the individual Rotanian, that real work counted rather than the negative ambition just to attend luncheons. It was hoped that more effort would be given to the annual Seal Cam- paign. Seeretary Praised On the social side it was ne- 1garded as a matter cf better con- Svenience te return fromn temporary n quarters to the familiar room at -the botel. During the year seven enew members bad been admitted, etwo had moved elsewhere and two b ad passed on. Club programme *during the year had been favored rwith many notable addresses. In conclusion President Forbes paid great tribute te Secretary Fred Gardiner.' He said that be was indeed bis rigbt hand in any success faliing te the chair. It was wîtb regret that he learned that Fred and Mrs. Gardiner are tak- ing up residence in Hamilton. *Wîth both a sense cf relief and regret he concluded bis report and universai tbanks by turning over the gavel te Mel Dale. New Presîdent The first officiaI action cf Pres- ident Dale was te cail on Past President Dave Morrison te pre- sent to Forbes bis much deserved Past President's pin. This was accompanied with an innovation in the form cf a Certificate cf Good Behaviour approved by Rotary International. President Mel assured the ne- tiring President that he felt at some loss te follow the precedent estabiisbed duning the past for werk done. But he began by eut- lining work te be considered at once by established committees. He aise lntroduced an Innovatien by presentlnt g flrthalflflan witb a menegrammed record bock centaining an outline cf work sug- gested for the coming year.' Expressing his tbanks for the bonor cf being elected te the chair be gave his full assurance that be would do bis best witb the usual splendid co-operation cf ail the members. Immediate plans cf course involved concerted organ- ization for the forthceming Ro- tary Carnivai. Business Visîters of the day included Young John Douglas Heyland wbo accompanied bis father at the bead table, aise Col. Clark, Dr. Keith Slemon and Bart Smithson. Contributors te birthday fines were numerous for flowers were presented te Ross Strike, Fred Vanstone, Doc. Rundie and Wes. Jewell. Welcomed back from bis honey- moon, George Cawker underwent an inquisition by Past President Len Elliott who then presented the club gift cf triple parler tables for bimseif and bride. "Have a heant for the office cf Grand- father," said Len, as George ex- pnessed thanks te bis fellow mem- bers.

Already 15 en- tries have been received and it looks as thougb it will bit the 50 mark before the contest begins. Mayor Sid Little is conducting a personal feud with Belleville's Mayor Frank S. Follwell. It will be recalled that letters were sent by Mayor Little te %everal mun- icipalities challenk'lng them te cempete against cur local girls and Belleville wbich is holding an Old Home Week frem July 13 te the 19 bas reaily taken up the challenge. For instance, in yester- iay's mail there was the following rews item frem Belleville: "'It must be the beat,'l said Mayor Frank Follwell, co'mment- ing on the letter from Mayor S.' Little cf Bowmanville. "The belles of Belleville are tops in Ontario and Canada. 0f course I don't mnean te brag, but I admire Mayor Littie's courage.ii wanting to have any cf our beauties cempete against the best that Bowmanvilie can produce."l And this morning there was a telegram from the same eastern City stating that Belleville belles invaded Trenton on Dominion Day and captured two eut cf three prizes and the title, "Queen cf tbe Quinte District 1947?" "I knew it ail the time," said MIayor Follwell. Now let the Mayor cf Bowrnanville beware. /Iaybe he's sorry he issued the challenge for Belleville te send ts best te bis centest. He stili has time te reconsider if he se Jesires.'l Te which, Mayor Little replies, "He's get te show me. Can you Iagine anyone from Belleville eing good-iooking eneugh te beat :ur Bowmanville girls. Why fer Poise, Persenalityand Puichritude t's a cinch. I visiteçi our beach :n Sunday and behieve me we àave ne werries about winning." ..oen AthI*aB Maka Good Showing at Ontario Track Meet This. faim town cf ours is rapidly acquînîng a gnoup of athirtes cf whicb it should be justly proud.

Gregory Frirnd came third in his 220 yd. beat and, according te Bart Smith- son, Recreational Director, shouid bave been second had he net siowed up in the last two yards te lose by about an inch. Sonny Hooper placed second in the high jump, Class B, under 17 yeans cf age, bepping hîgher than he bad ever done befane with 5'4".
