A. Mowat, Executive Director of the Canadian Pales- tine Committee, declared his pro- found conviction that the only h0pe of achieving an enduring world pence and future security was the full acceptance of the principles embodied in the char- ter of the United Nations Organ- ization and of granting to it the necessary world uovereignty to mnake completely effective the programi it is striving to bring to fruition. Mr., Mowat supported bis belief by relating bis personal experi- ence and observations at mee- tings of the United Nations As- sembly and the Security Council at ILake Success where he ap- pear ed as an officiai with the Palestine Committee which has pressed continuouslfr for a ration- ai. solution of the Palestine ques- tion. Watching the United Nations ini action and the devotion of great leaders to its cause was the source which inspired the con- viction enunciated by the speak- er. Introduction Introducing the speaker, Presi- dent Mrs. L. W. Dippeli said that his authority as a spokesman on the subject to 'be presented was founded upon active service in world war 1, followed by later active association with the Pal- estine Committee for which he presented many briefs to the gov- errnment and through writings, lectures and radio broadcasts has become nationally known as one of the most bighly informed Can- adians on world affairs. Mr. Mowat suggested in bis op- ening remarks that bis frequent appearance in Bowmanville while commuting between Toronto, Ot- tawa and New York almost per- suaded hixn to take out local citi- zenship or corne here for a rest during infrequent holidays from Work whiich have numbered 4 days since last April and a brief r7espite at Christmas. He found eo le in i the smaller centres on the deliberations of ted Nations Assem'bly. Partition Favord delegates to the Assembly ihi favor of partition on the Pal- estine, question was highly im- * )ortant in two respectrý. It rat- ized a case of 2000 years 0. ing by granting state suzer- aify to one of the world's great races, the Jewish people and con- firmed Palestine as their national home in conformity with the Balfour Declaration. It marked also the first important decision Oddfellows Observe Wildey Night ai NightingaleLodge Florence Nightingale Lodge celebrated "Wildey Night" on Jan. 14 and the largeet turnout o! thie terma was on hand at the banquet table at 7 p.m. to com- meri, rate the anniversary o! the irth o! Thomas Wildey, the founder and father o! Odd!ellow- sbip in America. Tbos. Wildey was born in London, England, on Jan. 15, 1782, came to Baltimore, Maryland, in 1817 and founded the first Oddfellows Lodge, in that city, April 26, 1819. Among the twcnty-severtvisi- tors present were District Deputy Grand Master Bro. Rocs E. Wat- son, Cobourg; Noble Grand of Orono Lodge, Bro. Robert Chat- ers, and Bro. W. J. Riddell, presi- dent o! the Past Dist. Dep. Grand Master's Association. Beehive Rebekah Lodge cater- ed for the banquet and it wae quite evident that they had put much bard work inta making this ban-1 quet the success it was. Bro. W. S.

This decision resulted in large measure from the force of world opinion developed from tbe long educational campaign conductedt by leaders in almost every coun- try including 30 non-Jewish or- ganizations wbich have pressed the justice of the cause. Since the settlement of large numbers of Jewish people in Palestine it bas been clear]y demonstrated that tbey have reclaimed this long- neglected land to a high state of productivity, have applîed sci- ence to raise standards of health and culture which completely jus- tify the partition of' autonomous Jewish and Arab states. Vacuum Filled Mr. Mowat declared that this solution was the only hope o! ex- tending progress in, the Middle East and o! setting up an organ- ized government with a moaern outlook under wbicb free Jewîsh peoples would be enabled to fill the vacuum and project civiliza- tion outward into a decadent hin- terland. The decision for parti- tion was the long view which if supported would be another mile- stone erected in achieving worid peace and stability. A present difficulty was the means o! enforcing acceptance of partition. Britain wished to be relieved o! ber mandate at the earliest possible moment but withdrawal of ber military force which bas policed the area brings into question tbe ability of the Security Council to assemble a force sufficient to maintain order. With the Arab world resolutely opposed to partition and threat- ening outrigbt armed conflict while pressing active guerilla warfare, the problemn is extreme- ly serious at the moment. Five Man Commission With a 5-man commission nam- ed to try to effect the establish- ment o! the two separate states, the acid test is stili whether the Security Council can secure agrqe- ment in wbich the nations lavor- lng partition will provide a militia capable of maintaining order. This problemn is one o! the first tests in whicb tbe Urited Nations Will, haiVe to iearn,.to istand, then walk and ultimately marcb on the course to which it is committed. Mr. ýMowat insisted that the day of absolute independent na- tional sovereignty and national self-sufficiency is ended. Nations must accept thie measure o! inter- national soverîegnty embodied in the autbority of the United Na- tions or invite the altérnative o! the possible destruction o! clviii- (Continued on Page Seven) Lions Change Date' 0f Lasi Concert Feature Bell Singers Announced in this issue is a' change o! date for the last con- cert o! the Department o! Educa- tion Concert Series, sponsored by the Bowmanville Lions Club. This concert will now be held on Fni- day, March 5, at Trinity United Church, instead o! Jan. 30, as or- iginally planned. It wac also found nececsary to change the artists as the Waterloo Band could not fiil the date. The Lions Club were fortunate in be- ing able to arrange to bring the Leslie Bell Girls' Choir to Bow- manville for this concert. This Choir from Toronto is well known to many local people and is one o! the outstanding choirs in Canada, having cung in many Ontario cen- tres, as weli as in Quebec and the United States. Its members are aIl young ladies with fine voices, almost ail o! them trained vocal- ists. Their leader, Dr. Leslie Bell, bas made a name for bimeel! as a choir leader and conductor. Citizens o! Bowmanville and district are fortunate in having an opportunity o! bearing this fine choral group at a considerably lower admission f ee than that us- ually cbarged in Toronto and oth er centres due to the arrangement with the Department o! Educa- tion. Retirlng President Ernie J ones Receives Gift From O.DUL.C.

Evolution of lte Violin Great Influence on Mutsic Told by Mliss Leona Flood The Rotary Club of Bowman- ville achieved the rare record of 100 per cent attendance at its weekly luncheon, Jan. 16, wbich was taken as unanimous tribute to the guest of the day, Miss Leona Flood, internationally famed vio- linist who appeared in a Rotary- sponsored recital in Trinity Uni- ted Church Auditorium the same evening. The honor was shared by Mrs. Flood, who was a guest with her daughter and accompan- ist Rudolph Gruen. For the oc- casion Miss Flood laid aside her violin and achieved a great ova- tion as a speaker for she related with fluent diction the evolution of the beautiful violin and of the great moral influence of good music in human affairs from an- tiquity down to the present time. Spokane Girl In introducing Miss Flood, Ro- tarian Charles Carter, Sr., reveal- ed that the rumor claiming the town of Bolton as ber birthplace was a geographical inaccuracy for she made her bow to fame fÈrm a cradie in Spokane, Washington, capital of the Inland Empire of the north west, a city which boasts of the famed Apple Way and the social mecca of the Hall of the Poges in the renowned Da- venport Hotel. This was the set- ting fromn which Miss Flood with youthful exuberance and brilliant talent set out to captivate audi- ences throughout America. Ap- pearing in ail Canadian cities she has played before 50,000 young people of the Dominion. Interest in Youth The fact that one of ber great interests is the inspiration of young people, among whom she is still numbered, was revealed in her opening remarks. She men- tioned the wave of juvenile de- linquency that is perplexing au- thorities in the U.S.A. and said ber public experience confirmed Me n's Canadian Club Invite New Members Firsi MeetingJan. 27 -.

The Canadian Club idea wbich origina ted and was chiefly organ- ized by an old Bowmanville boy, the late Colonel Charles R. Mc- Cullough, bas been a great forum in which the Canadian scene has been unfolded before the public. The Bowmanville club bas been fortunate in securing many of the great leaders of the day and in securing Mr. Watson the rural- urban idea of the club is faith- fully carried out.

In Canada, youth- ful delinquency was less pro-à nounced and music appreciatior! among youth was a heartening contrast. Free School Concerts A sidelight on the visit of Mis$ Flood to Bowmanville was toid by president Mel Dale after the conclusion of her address. She motored through the blizzard ta the Boys' Training School, Thurs-. day night to give a free concert to the students and followed that on Friday afternoon with a con- cert for the pupils of the High School. As she explained, there is a yearning in the hei-rts of ev- eryone for the sense of uplift that comes from the melody, the rhy. thm, the form and balance i good music.N 1Violin Hlstory Turning to the history of the violin, Miss Flood traced its origin to the ancient Orient when hunts- men discovered that stretched, dried skins of animais and tougIh strings made from offal casings could be combined to produce pleasing sounds. An inquisitive King found that the long-bow used in hunting, if drawn across taught strings could effect a variý. ant in musical notes. In primitive form this arched bow carried down until the late l7th century when it was replaced by the pres- ent form of the violin bow. In the l6th century, a Royal Court order set up the first string- ed orchestra and from that point onward many artists set about improving the construction and tone of what became known as the violin or viol. The chief cen- tre of this industry and artistryr was in Cremona, Italy, and wbat was acbieved there in the 17th (Continued on Page Seven) South Darlingilon School Area Board Elecis New Officers The South Darlington Townshils Area- School Board held its in-« augural meeting at Courtice, Jan. 12., 1948, with aIl members pres- ent.
