We have had people who think we are too ambitious in trying to raise $50,000 by donations to put up a good building; we have had others who don't agree on the location and think it should be down in the valley below Van- stone's bridge or down near Me- morial Park or on a dozen and one other sites, except Rotary Park. Others are already looking far ahead and wondering who will be the manager or the caretaker; if there is to be skating on Thurs- days or Tuesdays and If a rink can be operated profitably or if the town is going to be saddled with an annuai defficit. Ail off these things we interpret as being good signs to show that town and country people are de- finitely interested in the project and are willing to back it finan- cially. On Monday afternoon, we start- ed the canvass off the merchants of the town and met with excel- lent success. Already six busi- ness men have promised $200 apiece and others are expected to fo]low as soon as called on. These public spirited men were most en- thusiastie about the projeet, real- izlng that an arena in Bowmnan- ville would be a wonderful asset to the town and a definite tonic to business generally. Because the front street canvass is incom- plete we are not publishing the list this week, but hope to have iin readiness for next week's edit4on when it will be clear that business men are behind this pro- jeet almost without exception. Our feeling is that if every es- tahlished place off business can contribute at least $200,, spreading the payments from now until August or September or even un- tîl the end off the year, but not later, that almost one-third off our objective will have been reached. For those smaller businesses who have not been here too long. we are suggesting that they do their utmost to help with $100 on ci- ther a cash or a payment basis. Employees in the stores and of- fices have also been eonsidered and we feel that every maie em- ployee should be interested to the extent off at least $10 with female employees donating $5.00. This, again, doesn't need to be in a lump sum if it is easier to spread it out. Please remember, we're (Continued on Page Eight) FOUNDRY WQRKERS HONOR 40-YEAR EMPLOYEE Last Thursday afternoon an unusual event happened at Bowmanville Foundry when long- time employees gathered in the main office to honor Lucius "#Ham" Hooper who on April'28th had been 40 years with the company. C. Ernie Rehder, head of the organization, presented him with a fine smoking stand and -an envelope con- taining money. Mr. Hooper's record of service in Bowmanville extends well beyond the Foundry because he has also been a member of the local Fire Brigade since june 19, 1912, and has been Modern Public Ri Demonslrated ai By Former B.HS.
